THE NEW CATHOLIC CHAPEL, MOOR-FIELDS

This beautiful Chapel, which has attracted sa
much of the public attention for some time, being
now interiorly finished, was opened fie• public service
on Thursday last, for the first time ; on which day
the ceremony of its consecration and dedication took
place with all the solemnity of the Catholic Chureh.
High Mass was celebrated, and a sermon suitable to
the occasion preached. The music, which was
composed expressly fur the occasion, was performed
by'the first rate vocal and instrumental performers
in the kingdom, and no person.: but those professing
the Catholic religion took a part. The application
for tickets fir some time had been numerous, and a
great many persons of rank and distinction were
disappointed, every ticket being disposed of, though
the nave of the chapel is calculated to hold two
thousand persons, without the galleries. The
French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Bavarian Ambas.
sadors were present, besides the Duke of Norfolk,
the Earl and Countess of Shrewsbury, Lord and
Lady I'etre, Lord and Lady Clifford, and many other
persons of distinction of the Catholic persuasion, as
well us many of the Established Church, all the
Catholic Bishops and Clergy, in and within several
miles of the 'necropolis.
The ceremony was peculiarly grand and imposing,
from the nature of the solemn and impressive
ceremonies used in the Catholic Church, together
with the superb appearance of the Chapel, which
will remain a lasting monument to the refined
taste and judgment of Mr. Newman, the architect;
Mr. A. Aglio, the painter; and Mr. Cornolli, the
sculptor. The Altar piece is a panorama represen-
tation of the Crucifixion, and is .55 feet long, by 3::
ti.tet high, aed contains 250 figures as large as life.
The Lading is painted with the Assumption of the
Virgin Mary, and in several compartments all round
with subjects relating to the Lite of Christ. The
Altar is of the finest statuary marble ; and so is the
Tabernacle sculptured in the richest manner; the
Pulpit deserves particular notice It would fill
paper to describe me beauties of this place of
worship.

As the sergeant was passim, C113111•SWIK.Ii observed to

what Ctiarlesworili said, mined round to the sergeant,
and ordered hint to rim him thiongh the body. The
sergeant hesitattd, the officer repeated his order, and he
then struck him a blow on the head, which deprived
him of his senses. Smite of the bl-stairders, of this,
attempted to drag Charleswortli away, and to carry him
into a blacksmith's shop close adjoitiiii2.; hot, in lilc ;ICI
of doing so, tile sergeant made a 11111451 at him, and
wounded him in the side. Part of ihis story is from tile
lips of Charlesworill hinisel., who could not tell toe
whole, because he WilS insensible after the first bl.,tv

The following is an extract of a letter from
Chester, dated Tuesday evening :—A grand meeting
of Delegates is expected to take place, somewhere in
Manchester, in a day or two. It is said their object
is to concert a plan for a general rising. I can state
this from the best authority, founded on information
given to the Police. The body of Magennis was
buried in St. Mary's Church-yard, Chester, on
Sunday night. The Stockport Radicals had made
great preparations so receive it there "
Dealrucliue Fire.—Au alarming fire broke out at
Munsel Cottage, the residence of Capt. Bagot, near
Bagshot, on Monday afternoon. It was an ancient
wooden building, and was reduced to a heap of
ruins in less than an hour. The coach-house and
stabling and two hay rietis were also destroyed, and
two eettages were partially burnt. The fire was first
discovered in a drying-room over the kitchen, and
the conjecture is, that it arose from a beam in the
kitchen chimney. The loss is heavy but providen-
tially no lives were lost. The premises were insured.
Saturday evening, about half past eight o'clock,
as the Chatham coach wit; driving through the Bo-
rough, a woman, named Morgan, attempted to cross
opposite St. Thomas's-stri:t t, the leaders unfortu-
nately knocked her down, and the coach passing over
her hotly, killed her on t e spot. The poor woman
had only been married about nine months.

Lord Echo's Edinburgh troop of hussars, and
twenty of the Glasgow troop, with a piece of flying
artillery set off at 11 o'clock on Thursday right fir
Kilmarnock ; this detatchment proceeding to Kil-
marnock, Galston, and ewmilis, apprehended 16
radicals, who were sent off prisoners to Ayr, under
the escort of the Edinburgh troop. The inhabit-
ants of the different towns showed no disposition to
resist the military.
We understand among the penons apprehended
for treasonable practices, in Glasgow and the neigh-
bourluxxl, are several persons above the common
ranks of lite ; and some, whofrom their employments,
might have been expected to have acted differently ;
a clerk in a public office, and a set jeaut in a res-
pectable corps, arc said to be of the number, and
some, who, by industry, have raised themselves to
a respectable situation in life.
By the annual account of the number of broad-
cloths milled at the several mills in the West Riding
of York, it appears that there has been a decrease
since the last year of 61,061 pieces of broads, anti
of Q 0,614 of narrows—in yards, a deficiency of
2,67.'2,102. The greatest number of broad pieces
milled was in 1813, being then 369,890 ; and
there was a deficiency from that quantity in tl:c six
following years of 106,512 pieces
At Carnarvon Sessions, an action was brought for
a breach of promise of marriage, Hughes v. Rowland.
The plaintiff is the daughter of a respectable farmer,
anti the defendant also a farmer, residing in Llyn,
in the same county. The damages were laid at
::001. The case was clearly proved; and the Jury,
after a short consultation, found a verdict fur the
plaintiff—Damages 51.
At the late Cornwall sessions, in the case of Wm.
Hodge, for publicly exposing his wife finr sale at
Retlrutli, mid IVilliam Andrew, for purchasing her,
the husband did not appear, anti his recognizances
were forfeited. Ihe woman, who appeared as a
witness, stated, that her husband bad so frequently
ill-treated her, anti expressed his determination of
selling her, that she was indficed to submit to the
exposure to get rid of him. She, however, admitted
that she had lived with the defendant, hcr purchaser,
betitre she teas publicly sold to him—ft is hoped
that the punishment inflicted in this case, and the
determination of the Magistrates to visit every such
offence in future with the severity of the law, will
pa a stop to a practice which has latter ly occurred
iu dulerent parts of the country.
