LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

FATAL ACCIDENT.---Yesterday, a man named Lawrence
Hull, was brought to the Royal Infirmary, from Fazakerley,
with a severe compound fracture in the leg. He died
shortly after being admitted. An inquest will be held on
the body this day.

BAZAAR.—A -fancy bazaar was held yesterday in St.
Mary's Church, Edge-hill, for the purpose of obtaining
funds to be expended in the cleansing and repairing of the
church. There was a numerous attendance, and it seemed
probable that the receipts would be satisfactory.
A CHILD POISONED.---Yesterday, information was received
at the Coroner's-court, that a child named Henderson, five
weeks old, had been poisoned by paragoric, that had been
given to it in overdoses by a medical man. As the charge
is a serious one, we merely give the fact, until the investiga-
tion takes place to-day, at the Coroner's-court.
AMERICAN AND CANADIAN MAlM—Yesterday afternoon,
the Kangaroo sailed for New York direct with the American
semi-weekly mails, 270 passengers, and a full cargo. The
Canadian steamer, Nova Scotia, also sailed yesterday for
Montreal and Quebec ; she had also a large number of
passengers, and carried out the Canadian mails.
THE ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS were opened on Tuesday,
and, under all the Circumstances, afforded the greatest satis-
faction. When the weather clears up, and when the splen-
did and ample arrangements can be brought properly out,
this delightful place of recreation will be the favourite
of out-door amusement during the summer, as nothing
has been left undone to render the whole truly and deservedly
popular.

DEATH OF A. CHILD THROUGH A DRUNKEN' MOTHER.*
On Monday night, a child named Molleneuz was killed by
its mother, in a court off Nash-grove, under the following
circumstances : The woman is the wife of a nightman, and
had placed herself in a rocking- chair, with the child at her
breast and another across her knees. She was pretty well
in drink at the time, and having fallen asleep, her body
leaned forward and crushed the child that was at her breast
to death. An inquest will be held to-day.

CASSELL'S ILLUSTRATED FAMILY BIBLE, No. 1., Price
id., is now ready.---" If this is not arriving at the, acme of
perfection we know not what is. "—Surrey Times. A vast
number of communications having been received showing
that considerable difficulty exists in procuring copies in
remote parts, of the country, the publishers, anxious to
remove every obstacle, will (on receipt of remittances) for-
ward regularly packets containing four, nine, or eighteen
copies of the Bible, free by post, at the published prices.—
London : Cassell, Petter, and Galpin, and all Booksellers.
ST. GEORGE'S HALL.—Amongst the attractions for the
" holiday goers," the opening of the above Hall, on Monday
and Tuesday afternoons last, was the principal. To
popularise this place requires great exertion, and, with
the performances of Mr. W. T. Best, one of the most
talented artistes of the day, upon the grand organ, much
may be done to this end. On Tuesday afternoon, an attrac-
tive programme, comprising an Overture from " Maritana,"
the Mermaid's Song in Weber's "Oberon," an excellent
arrangement of English Airs, by Mr. W. T. Best, Handel's
" Let the Bright Seraphim," and Mendelssohn's "Wedding
March," drew a large and admiring audience, who, by their
plaudits, expressed their gratification at the treat. No town
in England can boast of so splendid a building, or an instru-
ment of equal grandeur ; and, therefore, at holiday time,
nothing can be a greater novelty to those who visit Liver-
pool. The usual Thursday's performanbe takes place this
evening, the selection of pieces being the choicest morceaux
of Handel, Mendelssohn, &c.*

AI. sop's WAx-IVon'x.—A large collection of excellent
wax-work figures, also sculpture galleries, a musical pro-
menade, and cosmoramic views, at Mr. Allsop's, Lime-street,
has had more than a usual attendance of visitors during the
past few days of "holiday time," and certainly in Liverpool
we never had any one who catered so well in his line as Mr.
Allsop has done. The figures exhibit a life-like appearance,
many of them being stated as exact likenesses, and much
expense has been gone to for the purpose of having them
perfect. The well-known and noted characters of the day
occupy a prominent position. To admirers of the " horrible,'
a collection of murderers has been placed in a separate
department, and from the exact phrenological construpt:

of the heads, much instructive information may be obtained,
The sculpture galleries are replete with grace and beauty,
including a large number of admired groups. The cos-
moramic views are of an interesting character, and afford
high amusement to the visitors. The music comprises many
of the well-known operatic selections of the day. Altoge-
ther, there is not a more pleasing and instructive lounge in
Liverpool.*

ELECTION OF VESTRYMEN. —The poll was opened at the
Sessions-house yesterday morning, and the result of the day's

BiosTox.---The annual vestry was held on Monday, in the
Parish Church, the Rev. C. A. Graham, incumbent, in the
chair, when the churchwarden's accounts for the past year
were examined and passed. A rate was laid, unanimously,
of ld in the pound, for defraying the current expenses of the
ensuing year. Mr. James Highton, of Claughton, and Mr.
R. Parkinson, of Moreton, were elected churchwardens for
the ensuing year. A vote f thanks was carried unanimously
to the retiring churchwarden, Mr: Thomas M. Blythe, for
his great zeal in the interest of the church during the period
of two years he had been in office. After a vote of thanks
to the chairman, the meeting separated.
WEST DERBY BOARD OF GUARDIANS.—The usual
weekly meeting of this board was held yesterday, Mr.
Pitt in the chair. The other members present, were—
Messrs. H. Edwards, Abrams, Ledger, Shaw, Green,
Garrot, Roscoe, Heyes, Mcdcalf, Parkin, Pilling, and Woods.
Mr. Gough, the governor, reported that the number of
paupers in the establishment last week, was 660 ; admitted
since, 23 ; born, 1; discharged, 17 ; dead, 3. Number
this week, 664, of whom 376 belong to Toxteth Park.
Number in the corresponding week st year, 674. The
master of the hospital reported that the number of sick pau-
pers in that establishment last week, was 100 ; admitted since,
8 ; discharged, 11; died, 2 ; number this week, 95 ; number
in the corresponding week last year, 114. The following
cheques were granted for out-door relief : Mr. Potts, £122 ;
Mr. Olney, £36; and Mr. Lythgoe, £22. On the motion
of Mr. Abrams, calls were ordered to be made on the
several townships of the union. The proceedings of the
visiting and hospital committee contained a recommendation
to appoint Mr. H. Edwards as chairman. The proceedings
were confirmed. On the motion of Mr. Woods, Mr.
Cayzer was appointed vaccinating officer for the township
of Garston, in the place of the late Mr. Bevan. This was
all the business of public interest.
SOIREE AT THE ODD-FELLOWS' HALL.—The Mayor, W.
Preston, Esq., presided at a soiree of the Odd-Fellows,held
on Tuesday night, at the hall in St. Anne-street. About
300 persons sat down to tea. The tables having been
cleared, his Worship, who was warmly received, said the
committee had done him the honour of calling upon him to
take the chair, but he regretted they had not
fixed upon a more competent person. As the even-
ing was far advanced, and as music would be
more pleasant to their ears than anything he could
say, he would call upon Mr. Harding to proceed with the
musical entertainment which had been announced. Mr.
Harding then gave his able and popular musical entertain-
ment, illustrated by a number of ancient and modern
English ballads. He urged that heads of families ought to
encourage music at home, as it tended to produce domestic
harmony. The teaching of music, he held, had the effect
of diminishing crime. His selection of songs was given in
excellent style, and met with a very hearty reception from
the audience. A vote of thanks was given to Mr Harding
for his entertainment, and also to the Mayor for honouring
the meeting with his presence, and occupying the chair on
the occasion. The accompaniments to the ballads were
played most effectively by Mrs. Harding.
MELANCHOLY DEATH OF AN ENGLISH CAPTAIN.—We
regret having to record the death of a well known and
respected captain, who has sailed out of Liverpool for
several years, and whose melancholy fate has caused deep
affliction in his own respectable family, and heartfelt
sympathy from his numerous friends, who admired and
respected him in all relations of life. We copy the follow-
ing from the New Orleans Daily Crescent, of the 31st
March :—" Captain T. J. Sutton, of the British ship Rosalie,
lying at post 47, Third District, was drowned on Tuesday
,;:TM by falling off a plank while walking from the
wharf to his vessel. The body , was not recovered.
The deceated leaves a wife and family in Liverpool.
He had long been a trader to this port, and was
well and favourably known. It is supposed that he
struck the wharf in hig fall, 46 the set of his ring

was found on the wharf." Captain Sutton was
of Mr. Sutton, a respected druggist in Blackstone-str,,",
Regent-road. The lamented gentleman was in the Blackstone~ploS•
ment of Mr. Orr, the eminent shipowner of Glasgow, wP,iOO
letters to the bereaved family here fully prove the estialat„
in which Mr. Sutton was held, and the loss the
owners of the ship have sustained in the death. °
