FATAL OCCURRENCE IN THE STRAND.—OD Thursday Mr.
William-Carter opened a lengthened inquiry at the Eagle
Tavern, South-street, West-square, Lambeth, respecting
'the circumstances connected with the death of Thomas
Hudson, aged 24, a printer, employed at the Milton press,
in Agar-street, Strand, but who resided with his wife and
family at No. 30, Pleasant-place, West-square. Mrs.
Emma Hudson stated that the deceased was her husband.
She saw him on Saturday afternoon last in Agar-street,
and he was tben perfectly sober. He was brought home
in a cab the same night at a quarter before twelve a'clock.
He was then insensible. He went to sleep on some things
on the floor, and the nest morning, at seven o'clock, she
rent for a surgeon, who upon his arrival pronounced life
extinct. Air. John Wakeham, a surgeon, said that on
Sunday morning last, a little before seven o'clock, he was
sent for to attend the deceased. He had since made a
post mortem examination of the body, and found a severe
contusion under the scalp on the right sule, immediately
under an external injury over the right temple. Having
removed the bone, he detected a fracture four inches in
length, extending through the temple bone, and passing
downwards. The fracture caused effusion of the brain,
and consequently death. Mrs. Ann Clapshaw said that she
lived at No. 11, Agar-street, Strand. Oa Saturday night,
a little before ten o'clock, she saw the deceased and a per-
son named Richard Kendall in the street, surrounded by a
great crowd. The deceased appeared to be labouring
under the influence of liquor, and said he would fight Mr.
Kendall. Witness and Mr. Eraser tried to prevent them
from fighting, but all of a sudden the deceased tell back-
wards on the pavement, and she heard his head crack on
the stones. Margaret Caroline Parr deposed to seeing
Kendall and deceased sparring. She saw them both fight-
ing and fall together. The inquiry was adjourned far
further evidence, and Kendall was bound over in the'sum
of £4O to he present at the adjourned inquest.—Zondon

THE TRISH CATHOLIC MEMBERS AND THE OATHS BILL.
—The Dublin Evening Post, on the authority of its Landon
correpondent, supplies some particulars in connection with
a meeting held at the Stafford Club, to consider the pro-
visions of the Oaths Bill, now in course of being passed
through the House of Commons :—" I gave you in my
letter of last evening a few hurried observations respecting
the meeting of the Roman Catholics of England, held at
the Stafford Club, the Duke of Norfolk in the chair, to
which it now appears but a chosen few of the Irish M.P.'s
were invited. Mr. Bowyer, of coarse, he being the month-
pice of the English Roman Catholics ; but those of what
were deemed the less aristocratic were omitted. This
meeting has given rise to much comment among the,
Irish Roman Catholics in the
.lionse of Commons (Lard
Edward Howard is the only English Roman Catholic repre-
sentative in the lower House), some of whom feel not a
little hurt by the exclusiv'eness of the meeting; and those
who were honoured by au invitation felt not a little mon..
tified to find a resolution prepared to •the effect, that, the
Catholic oath, now used, and by virtue of which the
members took their seats and had submitted, was deemed
an insult to their religion. The resolution was subse-
quently withdrawn. This does not appear the best mode
of securing co-operation, particularly in this. first approach
of the, English Rotten Cailiblits, who heretofore have
kept aloof froth the' Irish, and only concurred to accept
the benefit obtained by the latter, without co•operation
in the struggle, for which they here too proud and aristo-
cratic. The present-move of those lordly folk appears to
be to obtain support from the Irish members in opposing
the Oaths Bill, as it does not assimilate toe oath required
by the Roman Catholics ; and, as r mentioned to you,
Lord Palmerston is to be waited on and tested on this
point. If he refuse to accede to their proposition, what
course is to be pnrsned? Some suggest that the Irish
Catholic members should in a body oppose the bill, and so,
contrary to all principles of liberality and tolerations- in-
crease the chance of continuing the disability of the Jews.
Others take a more truly liberal view, and saywe should
not exclude others from the benefits we enjoy because the
mode of admitting them to a like enjoyment is not in terms,
which we admire 9r approve,"
