MEETING AT CREWKERNE.

On Saturday lut, the mPmbera of the Ilmineter
di.trict of the Somerset County and Conservative and Pro-
teetionlst Aasociat.on assembled at the George Hotel, Crew-
' kerne, for the purpose of carrying out the objects of the also.
that district, of considering the present distressed
condition to which the agricultural interest la reduced by
the mischievous operation of Ir•e trade legislation. Din-
ner was provided for about 160, but such was the rush
on the doors being opened, that the large room was filled
immediately, and numbers were unable to pin admittance.
A second room was provided for their accommodation be-
low stain. "he chair was taken by Tuosus Ht sesy,
Esq., late M.P. for Lyme, who is the lord of the manor
of Crewkerne. He was snoported by about 200 of
the principal and most influential agriculturists of the
neighbourhood. The meeting pledged itself to "make
every effort to Icarus* the parliamentary strength of vie
supporters of a remedial policy, and in any future election in
this divirion of the county endeavour to secure the return of
such canoidates as will support a return to a system of ade-
quate praesetion to native industry and sound principles of

MEETING AT BRIDLLNGTON (YORKSHIRE).
On Saturday a meeting of agriculturists and others
interlined in the prosperity of the farming interest was
holden in the Corn Exchange, in this town, air T. LEOARD
in the chair. The meeting was folly attended, and its distin.
ruining feature wan the success of several of the friends of
freictrulen in combatting the argaments of the protectionist
speakm.
Letters apologising for absence were read from Lord
Hotham, 14 P. for the But Riding; Y. (Mune, Bsq , the
late high sheriff for the county, and other gentlemen, in-
eluding Admiral Mitford.
The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, alluded
to tit, dielcultin with which the farmers had to contend,
and gave it as his opinion that it was the duty of all clarets,
particularly the ►andlord., to come forward to do what they
eeuld to prevent the ruin which seems to threaten the agri•
'altars' interest.
I T. PRICKETT, Erq., proposed to lay their grievances at
the foot of the throes, and read the petition which he pro-
posed should be presented to her Majesty.
Mr. BARUCHt seconded the motion.
Considerable uproar was then occasioned by Mr. Sawden
moving as an amendment, " That the petition be presented
to the Queen that day six months." The intendment we.
received with gnat applause by a large portion of the meet-
leg, but was met by the original clamour of the protection-
ists, who, after Mr Wheldon. of Scarborough, had seconded
the amendment, got it aegetived.
The meeting was than dimlved.

THE TRAGEDY OF HELEN ABERCROMBIE.

Wales, to whom the "death of • ealetnatod literary alu-

espied into various josses* has eal7 now found its way,

that Individual, which we (the Globe) print, se possibly the

Wainwright never was a literary " lion"—he never
drew any " circle" at all, far less a " brilliant" London one.

the "lit y enaracts r," as so marvellously dissected by the
late Disraeli, will admit that humanity in a higher degree,
rather than its almost bestial deficiency, is one of its charac-

an observer of mankind would MA for in that peculiar

lie merited and settled at Turnham green, in the honse of
Lis deceased uncle. 11:s wife had two half-suters, each
with 101. per an, um, as their sole means of suleidence.
They came to value with the young couple. Wainwiight
obtained a smelt sum by the death ct tie neck; t re
vegans habits were al:e ruining him, yet he expended a
gro-t part, if not the whole of this woidfell, in a manner not
to he *mooted for with the belief of his unity, but on the
supproition of a f tit acd inhuman purpose ; that admitted,
quite rational, and t:.. whop is a. c'ear as the sun at man-
tis,. One cf the siste.s, Miss Bel! n Abercrombie, was then
in her 20 Is year, in heal: Is, and happiness, and beauty. So
uniform had been her good health, an I so s•roegly was
that depleted in her blooming face, that a gentleman,
catuslly lookiog at her from his post in a life assurance
office!, said, "Toilets a young lady for insurance! We
iniaht take her by m.ly looking at her!" Yct
teeth and hale girl, by whose death no leas was to arise
to anyone, as by her life no gain (both girls being
almest penniless), did her brother-in-Lw persuade to insure
her life (or rather to let him insure, for the payment he was
to nuke) a• many office', to an immense amount, conc.-sling
from each (stab ishotent the tact of eer being inured at
many ',then. By what vile pretence poor Helen !mei(
was induced to concur in the falsehoods told is not known.
One inducement to tempt her was reversionary usio to her
sister, but one large sans was expiessly its his own lay Ur,
and the whole to came under his handling as her trustee.
At some of the ((dices two years, at others three, wig the
term insured; so that in the event of her living but that
little period, every farthing of the money paid fur the policy
would have been los.; yet in this wild speculation did this
embarrassed man actually embark above 2001. reedy motley.
This would have been madness; but taken with the un-
timely death of innocence and beauty—the madness
&Guinean—the murderer looms dim, dreadful and detest-
able in the mystery ! No less than 30,0001. was to accrue
by her death. So rapacious was his avarice, that other
policies were attempted at other officer, but refused, not
without kind and solemn hints of warni,.• from one princi-
pal, to which the trusting, artless young creature replied
only by laughing at tLe idea of any one plotting agaiust her
harmless lite. Thus this cold-hearted wretch crested for
himself a lottery in the dark—in the shadow of death,
of the friendleu, fair trusting being, whom he 'seemed
to be protecting the question was one of utter ruin
sacrifice of the whole sum paid, or attunes (the
capital prize of 30,0001. !) Her domestication, her conli•
dente, her youth, all conspired to give istal facility to the
execution of a horrid tragedy, without witness but God!
Talk of the Mantling, ! There was some touch of
other passions, besides lucre, in them. Some idea
of injury, some ge, in the woman ; some degree
of jealous aversion, in the man. Imagine this vile
plotter, shari, g for many monies the same fireside, root,
table, amusements, with his smiling victim, all the while
familiar with the sad image, is the near future, of her beauty
in its shroud—her early grave already yawning to his mind's
eye—and surely the horrid pair yield the palm of devilish
treachery to T. Griffiths Wainwright. Whether or no, the
tragedy here recorded, as in the recent one—a horrid " pair "
ought to he the expression—seems left in darkness, never
now probably to be dispelled. Whether his wife yet sur-
vives I know not.

And now the curtain begins to rise, the tragedy to unfold
its plot. The villain hero is expelled from has unpaid home
and its contents by bailiffs. Yet we find him (u ever) "light
hearted "—in good lodgings at t►e west•eud (Conduit-street)
frequenting the theatre during ell his troubles, and poor He-
len, following his and her notate§ fortunes, still under the
same roof. At this (to him) critical time • slight illness
affected her. Medical aid was rather officiously called in—
even a physician was sent for. (Excellent precautions,
these.) Dr. Locock saw nothing at all serious, far lees any
death symptoms, but prescribed, of course. Mr. and Mrs.
Waiawrigbt, it was proved, administered to her • medicine
in powder, apparently to his order, and directly went on a
very long walk (in Loud, n reets.) Very quickly Helen
fell into convulsions. The doctor coming in haste pronounced
her labouring wader affection of the brain. lla did not
remember to have prescribed any medicine under the
form of powder. In au interval of the fits sl.e reco-
vered sense enough to say, " Oh, doctor, these are
the rains of death." On the return of her two pro-
tectors, from their long walk, Helen was a corpse. The
doctor, however, hardly conceiving the possibility of foul
play (they were all strangers to him) to • harmless young
creature, seemingly cherished in the bua•m of her family,
even her medicines piecing through no hands bat those of
her only friends—imputes the death to natural causes.
It is important here to obs.ru that any progressive
"pressure on the brain," reaching the stage of con-
'ninon', could not b vs allowed an into real of reason,
coma would have followed as the hub-tiger of death ;
but such strum le between reaton and its invading
destroyer, admitting even partial recovery of speech
and intellect, is quite incomparable with "affection aft the
Main" produced artificially—that i., by exhibition of •
deadly narcotic, or such drugs as act un the memoriam
entirely through the nervous system, the brain it-
self remaining without physical alteration. Now, such
insidious destroyer is strychnine, an intense extract of the
drug oucculus indictor To connect the links of this terrible
tale, we must here anticipate • little in the course of events,
to record that some three years after, Wainwright, who had
been loag skulking abroad, was seised and earned (under
oiromestane e to be presently told) hetet., ;he COM. cti..nal
Tribunal of Paris : secreted ea his person was found this
very poison, of fearfully secret activity—strychnine ! To
return; poor Helen Abercrombie "in her ould grave,"
Wainwright claimed the enormous aggregate of all the
sums due. Every one of the offices resisted his claim,
nominally, indeed, waiving the darker ground of defence,
and relying on the well-proved fact of false ri presents.
Lions having been made to effect the insurances. Wain-
wright, thus baffled, became • wanderer on the continent
during three or four years (I forget the precise data),

all the while prosseatiog his suit against the insurance
companies is the law everts. At last, after cm* trial
'Refinished, and one jury diacharged, because they could not
accede to Lord Abinger's dinetica (" to throw out of their
coesideretioa the darker isisiateation") • final trial
ultimately blasted the hopes of the audacieus claimant, who
happily never toadied a farthing of the long expected
p
•II of blood." It was merely ore jormo, as a legal
technicality, that the judge excluded the criminal charge
from a Nisi Pram maw, the defence being deemed peglege
without it ; yet so strong was the feeling of the first jury
against even the appearance of acquiring him of the
darker" charge, that they separated without a verdict, as
has just been related.
Folloeiag the "felon at balm," we find hint living ander
the roof ammo half.pay English officer at Boulegue. This
gentleman, at his instigation, insured his life at some London
oars, but survived to pay only one halt year's policy. The
sum insured was paid at his death; Mr. "Janus Weather-
cock" had something tc do in the case, but the circumstances
have not relished the public. Suspicion, of course, has ample
mope.
Those who put faith in " particular providence'," may
find the interest of a solemn romance in the brief sequel
Shortly after we find him seised in Paris, on the (not very
serious) charge of bearieg a false name, and be it g without a
passport. Tula he could easily have got over, hut there was
lotted on his person • mortal poison (that already men-
, tinted), which bringing ham within the category of " pee-
-1 sons armed with the =ears of destroying human life," sub-
jested him, by the law of France, to six months' imprison-
ment. The Englishman woo identified him in Paris as con-
! ceiling his real name, was Forrester, the Bow street officer,
who happened to be in Paris, and recognised him.
His term of durance pact, the lontexpatriated vaga-
bond ventured to step on English groom! ; he even
dared to appear in a London street, where the first
"old familiar fate" he met was the dresaful one of
Forrester again! And again the fearful cry "you are my
prisoner" sounded in hie ears. He was now seite,d on a more
serious accusation (though short of what he actually de-
served)—forgery. It was not of the deepest dye, consisting
is affixing the names of some trustees to • trotting property
acteruiag from his uncle's death, which his conscience-
stricken flight sad prudential exile prevented him obtaining.
" Transportation for lite" was now his damn. Thus, the fact
of hot merely carrying about the very poison which, in all
human probability, de.troysd the young unfortunate beauty,
Helen Abercrombie, became the means of charging a slight
trouble into a six months' misery—that again (through the
strange übiquity of Forrester) led to perpetual exile,
chains, and the "death of the wicked," in fury,
squalor, and &their. With the vanity, effrontery, and
overweening 'elf love inherent is this " Celebrated Charac-
ter," while yet awaiting in Newgate his dismal voyage, he
petitioned the Home Secretary for certain relaxations of rules
in his savour, and it was then that Mr Proctor (presuming
upon his power it " Barry Cornwall," the post) was weak
enough to also pray government favour for probably the
foulest of the foul human cargo which the country was about
to vomit forth. The result was curious, Inquiries made

DRAMA.
HAYMAKKF.T.
A " new and original comedy," called "Leap Year,
or, the Ladies' Priviloge,' from the ptn of Mr. Buck-
ato,:e, was pi odor ed at this thetitr last evening. The
author sires, in the playbill, the following Lotioe of
the origin of tl e pieee:
The comedy wee a gosted by an extract from an old
volume dwell 1601, &oil .mithd "An Act to &mend the
Lsws of Courtsaip and Mcrimonirt " :—" l!beit it is now
beecme part of the smaison law in regard to the a .cial
relation, of li:e, that as often ae every Sieseril• year doth
return, toe lady** have the mle privilege of making love
unto the men, which thi y doe eihir by word,, or Ll[kes as
unto them seemeth pr ; sod no atm will be entitled to
the benefit of clergy, who doth reluse to the offer of a
lady, or who doh is any wisp heat her proposal with
neglect or eintumPly.".

The traditional privilege of the fair sex to take the
ieitiative in matte's of courtship during leap-year is
familiar to everybody, sod has of, en been made the
subject of literary pleasantries. In the pres rat in-
s:eines Mr. Buckstone has turned it t) good account.
Mrt. Flora Flotrerdew is the young widow of an
old husband, who has het a will containing the ec-
centric co- dirion that should she not m .rry again
within two years Wter his death, his whole property,
otherwise left to her, shall go to a distant relation.
The two 3 cars are on the ere of expiring ; the die-
cant relet on has sent notice of his intention t, de-
mand immediate rote, stion cf the house and property,
and the lady is making preparations for yielding
them up. She has a ftitnd, Miss Sally O'Leary, a
warm-aearted, quick-wated Irishwoman, who has
been exerting herself to save her friend's tenni& by
provioing her with a husband within the fetal period,
and for that purpose has band for her a variety of
suitors, but cannot get her to fancy any of them. (tie
lady has a domestic named William who, by
hie devotion to her service, and his constant and deli-
cate retentions to her wishes and comfort, tas made
himself very agreeable to her; and his language,
always respectful and becoming his station, but ex-
iaibit,ng gleams of sentiment and refleentet,t, has
gradually given him an interest in her heart of which
she hersel at first is not aware. In the situa-
tion in which she is now placed, almost driven to
marriage by the ?read of absolute poverty, her feel-
ings towards William become intelligible even t 3
heiself, but the d.scovery only makes her struggle
the more violently against them. Under the influ-
ence of pride,shtme, and self-condemcatien, contend-
ing with growing passion, she treats him now with
distance and hauteur, now with relenting softness,
till at length, having gained a momentary victory
over heiself, she suddenly requires him instantly to
leave her house and service. Ifrilliatn obeys without
a murmur, and departs, after expressing his feelings
towards 12.. r more warmly than he had ever done be-
fore, while she, leftalone, bursts into an agony of tears.
In hopes of making a compromise with her husband's
heir, she has written to him, offering to resign her
rights at once if he will conse:A to allow her a mode-
rate independence, sufficient to m,intain her as a
gentlewoman ; but his answer is that lie will listen to
no terms, but must have the whole or nothing. In
this extremity she resolves to reveal the secret of her
heart to her friend Miss O'Leary, which, after many
efforts, she succeeds in doing. The lively Irishwoman
takes the liberal view of the matter. ridiceles her
friend's scruples, and, reminding her that it is leap
year, advises her to use the prescriptive privilege of
her rex. The result is an admirable scene,
in which the lady, without overstepping the modesty
of her nature, gives If encouragement enough
to draw from him a passionate declaration of hopeless
attachment. She is thus enabled to avow a recip-
rocal feeling; but this, after all, is not a leap-year
courtship on the lady's part. But now comes the
denouement, for which we, and probably the whole
audience, were prepared long beforehand. The ar-
rival of the dreaded claimant of the est rte is an-
nounced : he appears, and turns out, to the lady's
joyful amazement, to be her servant and accepted
lover, William Walker.
All these scenes were admirably acted by Mrs.
Charles Kean, her husband. and Mrs. Fitzwilliam.
Mrs. Keen's personation of Mrs. F7owerdeto was de-
lightful—full of truth, feeling, and all those feminine
graces for which this charming actress is so distin-
guished. To her captivating performance the play
hes been mainly indebted for Its success. Mr. Kean
acted the part of if Milker with great quiet-
ness, and with the subdued bat earnest feeling which
the character requires ; and Mrs. Fitzwilliam's Sally
O'Leary was full of wellness and vivacity.
The incidents which form the substance of the
play are mixed up with an immense quantity
of the broadest farce. One of the lady's
suitors is Mr. himpk, a fop, but a shrewd fellow. He
pays his addresses with groat familiarity, the lady
being his cousin ; and a paction is made between them
(in earnest on his part), that he shall be " taken on
trial " for three days, and live in the house in the chae
raster of its master. Accordingly he commands the
servants, bolds matrimonial dialogues with the lady
about household arrangements, and,:tinally, goes out
to a bachelor's dinner, and is brought home drunk at
midnight. Buckstone himself played this part, in his
usual amusing wry ; but the whole conception is in-
delicate, and out of keeping with the lady's character.
Then there is a Capt. Mouser, an attorney's son, who,
on being rejected, preNews his mistress, in sober sad nes*,
with an enormous long bill of costs ! And there is a
certain Sir Solomon Solus who desires to marry Mrs.
Floicerdew, that he may escape from the clutches of a
lady who wants to marry him—which lady, Midi
Desperate by name, is as desperate a bore to the audi-
ence as to Sir Solomon. All these personages, and
the incidents connected with them, though sometimes
Indictors enough, are quite out of the province of
