the Established Church, and for affording temporary Assistance to
Necessitous Clergymen and their Families.
The next ELECTION of PENSIONERS will take place on TUES-
DAY, November 30. Forms of application may be obtained at the
Offices of the Institution.

A GENTLEMAN some time since kindly offered a DONATION
of 100 GUINEAS in aid of the general object of the Institution, pro-
vided 20 similar sums were contributed ; 17 have been promised, out
of which number 14 have been paid, and the three unpaid will be
forthcoming as soon as the required number is complete ; thus a con-
tribution of 100 guineas each from three benevolent individuals will
be the means of adding 600 guineas to the funds. The names of
donors to this fund will be thankfully received by the secretor".
A Special Fund has been opened for the purpose of raising 10,0001.,
to be invested in Government Securities, for the permanent benefit
of the Pensioners now and hereafter to be elected on the funds.

* EXAMPLE.—At the commencement of the year 1841 a person aged
thirty took out a Policy for 1,0001., the Annual Payment for which
is 24/. 13. Bd.; in 1847 he had paid in Premiums 1681. 1 ls. Bd. ; but
the profits being 2M per cent. per annum on the sum insured (which
is 221. 103. per annum for each 1,0001.), he had 1571. 10s. added to the
Policy, almost as much as the Premiums paid.
The Premiums, nevertheless, are on the most moderate scale, and
only one-half need be paid for the first five years when the In-
surance is for Life.
Every information will be afforded on application to the Resident
Director.

NATIONAL ASSURANCE AND
INVESTMENT ASSOCIATION,

7, St. Martin's. place, Trafalgar-square, London.

The investment of money win this Association, which was
established in May, 1814. on a plaa peculiar to itself, secures equal
advantages to the surplus capital of the affluent, and the provident
savings of the industrial classes of the community, and affords an
opportunity for realising the highest rate of interest yielded by first-
Classsecurities..4awhich alone the money is employed.
Moneys deposited with the Association, for Investment, are
exempt from liabilities on account of life contingencies. as well as
the expenses of management, which are borne by the Life Depart.
ment, in consideration of the business brought to it by investment
transactions ; therefore, Depositors enjoy the entire profits yielded
by their capital free from deduction of any kind—an advantage
which no other Institution, either public or private, holds forth, or
can afford, to its members.
Interest or Dividend, is payable half-yearly, in January andjuly.

WOOLWICH, JULY 17.--The Lords of the Admiralty an-
nounce their intention of paying an official visit to this
dockyard to-day, and Commodore Henry Eden, and the
heads of the departments, remained in waiting at the prin-
cipal office from ten o'clock, the hour they were expected.
until half-past eleven, when a telegraph message was sent
down to inform the Commodore-Superintendent that their
ps intended postponing their visit until the middle
Colonel Colquhoun, director of the carriage department in
the Royal Arsenal, had a carriage for launching life boats
brought round to the dockyard for the purpose of showing
week.
ioLtfs°nrdead;hvtiantages in launching life-boats to their Lordships,
and Mr. Richardson, sen., and Mr. Richardson, jun.. were
present with their life-boat, or life-raft, for the purpose of
exhibiting its advantages for saving lives from shipwreck
or accidents at sea. Colonel Blanshard, commanding Royal
Engineers at Woolwich, whose pontoons have been intro-
duced into the service for conveying troops across rivers or
narrow arms of the sea, with Captain Washington, RN.;
Captain Perrot, and several gentlemen, connected with the
shipwreck societies, arrived about two o'clock at the dock
yard, and witnessed the inventions experimented with,
Colonel Colquhoun having launched his boat from the car-
riage several times with twelve men for rowing, on board at
the tims the launches took place. The launch of the boat
was very simple, and easily effected; by backing the car-
riage into the water under the slip from which the Agamem-
non was recently launched until five feet depth of water
was obtained, the wheels being about ten feet in diameter,
and then raising the fore part of the carriage, the boat went
down the inclined plane into deep water, and, by its own
momentum, went a considerable distance from the carriage.
The boat is easily landed by the same carriage from any
beach, however slightly inclined. Colonel Blanshard,
Captain Perrot, and several ladies and gentlemen, went on
the Messrs. Richardson's raft, and were rowed for some time
by six men, with six oars, up and down the river. Every
person admires the raft, as it can scarcely be upset; on a
former trial upwards of eighty men standing on one side
failed to upset it. Further experiments will be made with
these inventions when their Lordsbips visit the yard.

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.
MIDDLESEX.
A very large meeting of the friends and supporters of
Lord R. Grosvenor and Mr. Ralph Osborne was held lut
night, at eight o'clock, in the large room of the Beaumont
Institution, Beaumont-square, Mile-end-road. The apart-
ment, which will hold about 1,000 persons, was crammed as
full as it could hold.

Mr. OSBORNE, having been introduced to the meeting by
Mr. Hammack, the chairman, observed, that he had already
addressed two meetings that day, and felt like a racehorse
run off its legs. To carry out his sporting metaphor, he had
run ten heats for the Middlesex county cup in 'seven days,
and had taken two severe sweats that morning.
(Cheers and laughter.) As the present Prime Minister
was connected with the turf, he might go on in
the same strain, and warn the electors in the
present contest not to let themselves be led away from
running the sld Tory and Protectionist fox to earth by the
"No Popery" drag. It bad been said that he was a friend
to Popery and to Papal aggression, and that Lord Bland-
ford was a Protestant champion—a sort of Protestant St.
George, who was to slay the Romish dragon. Just let them
see how the case stood. In 1795 the Irish Parliament, which
was composed exclusively of Irish Protestants, who are very
different from English Protestants, for their religion in a
great measure consisted in hunting their Roman Catholic
fellow-subjects, voted 8,0001. a-year to Maynooth for the
education of the Roman Catholic priesthood, not because
they liked them, but because it was expedient to do so, as
they did not like that the priesthood should imbibe what
were called French notions at the time, and that they should
be educated in Italy, Spain, or France. When the Union
was achieved—by what means it was not necessary for him
then to state —the grant was continued by the united Parlia-
ment; and it was curious that Spencer Perceval, the Spooner
of his day, never objected to it.— (Hear, hear.) Govern-
ment after Government continued to rule Ireland year after
year by the old system of coercion, till, in 1845, Sir R.
Peel being advised of the policy of placing Maynooth on
a footing which would render it of service as a seminary
for educating the priesthood of Ireland, moved that there
should be a permanent addition to the vote of 14,0001.
a-year. Lord Blandford voted for that endowment—
he (Mr. Osborne) voted against it.—(Loud cheers.) And
now a new Titus Oates—and let them remember that old
Titus Oates was very nicely provided for—in the shape of
the chairman of the Middlesex magistrates, came forward
and picked him out as a friend to the Pope and Papal ag-
gression !—(Cheers.) It had been said on the hustings the
_othez day, lie had endeavoured to rob the Irish Church by
voting for Mt: Ward's amendnient that any endowment to
Maynooth should come, not from the pockets of the people
of England, but from the funds of that establishment. There
was always an attempt made to bind up the bloated Irish
Church with the establishment in this country, but he would
show them how the case really stood in Ireland, and that
from Parliamentary documents, which could not be disputed.
He was obliged to take the census of 1841, inasmuch
as in
the late census no diftinction was made between the venous
sects, but as Irish Protestants had been as much affected by
emigration as the Roman Catholics had been by the famine
in the diminution of nearly 2,000,000 of the population,
the difference was not material. He found the num-
ber of Protestants of the Estah!ished Church was
852,064, of Presbyterians 642,356, of other dissenters
21,808, of Roman Catholics no less than 6,427,712.—(near'
hear.) Now, what were the revenues of these religious
derived from the State? The Established Church for its
800,000 persons received just 800,0001. a year.—(ob, ah I)
But that was not all, for since the time of the Union they
had recoived 1,000,0001. for the erection of churches
and glebe-houses.—(Ohl) The Presbyterians received a
grant, called the Regium Donum, of 32,0001. a year. The
6,5 0,000 of Roman Catholics received just 26,0001. per
annum.—(Hear, hear, and shame.) The 852,064 Pro-
testants had 2 archbishops, 10 bishops, and 2,000
In England there was 1 bishop to every 412 benefices;
in Ireland there was 1 bishop to every 118 benefices.
—(Shame!) Since the Union the money received by the
Established Church was 5,207,0001, by Protestant Dissenters
1,019,0001 , by Roman Catholics 365,000/.—(Cheers.) Well.!
he had brought forward a motion for inquiring into that
Protestant establishment; he had voted for inquiry into the
Begium Domini, and he was ready to vote for an inquiry
into Maynooth.—(Loud cheers.)
Let them understand hip
well—he did not vote for it on the ground that he boil.;
right to inquire into the tenets of any man, or to Oa" his
judgment upon the religious convictions of any body of
but on the broad principle that, as a Member of Parliament,
clergy.
he had a right to see how the money which came out of
the
other of the people was spent. Lord Blandford, on_ tn.!
other hand, would denounce the Roman Catholics and abuse
their creed, but would not vote for any inquiry into tlit%o!O
tribution of the money by the various establishments. slwait'h

more inclined to pick a quarrel with than Cardinal Wise-
man, but he thought it would have been far better to have
treated his letters and missives with perfect indifference.
If the Pope attempted a real aggression he would be pre-
pared to resist it, but he would not lend himself to a false
cry. He called on all Dissenters, Churchmen, and Roman
Catholics, to split votes for him and Lord Grosvenor, not
because he was a Protestant champion, but because he
was a Christian man, who stood up for civil and religious
liberty to all men, and one who would never he ashamed of
any vote he had given, or would in any future Parliament.
The meeting stood up at the conclusion of the speech and
cheered loudly.
Mr. Ftrr proposed and Mr. SNOW seconded a resolution,
pledging the meeting to use their efforts to secure the return
of Lord B. Grosvenor and Mr. Osborne, which was carried
by acclamation, and the meeting separated.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
OXFORD CIRCUIT.—Oxford, July 16.
CROWN COURT.—( Before Mr. Justice CRESSWELL.)
Elijah Noon, aged 33, plasterer, was indicted tor the mur-
der or Charlotte Noon, his wife, at the parish of St. Thomas's,
in the city of Oxford, on the 2d of May last.
Mr. Cripps and Mr. Sawyer conducted the prosecution;
Mr. Pigott and .Slr. Huddlestoue defended the prisoner.
The circumstances of this case were extremely painful.
The principal witness for the prosecution was the prisoner's
daughter, a little girl twelve years of age. She stated that
she lived with her parents in Portland-place, Cardigan_street, Oxford. In consequence of her father not returning
home on Saturday night, her mother went to look for him
soon after midnight. They returned together in a tew
minutes; he was not sober. Her mother upbraided him
with staying out so late. He took some money out and
counted it. She said he could treat other persons and not
her. He then took down a sword from a shelf, pulled it
out of the sheath, and struck the deceased, who was sitting
down, on the back with the flat part of the swori. The
child ran to the door and got outside • the mother got up
and attempted to follow her, and her daughter took hold of
her hand to pull her through. The father was standing in
the room, and according to the child's first account he went
to his wife at the door with the sword, and ran it into her left
side. It appeared, however, that the witness could not see
the actual thrust; but her mother screaming out the child
pulled her out of the room into the street, where she fell
down. She was then led to a neighbour's
and was subse-
quently taken back to her own house. The prisoner had in
the meantime replaced the sword in its sheath on the shelf.
On examination a wound nine inches long was found in
the left side of the deceased, of which she died in about
twenty-four hours. The prisoner paid every attention to her
during her last hours. On being brought back to the house
he took hold of her hand, and helped her upstairs. The de-
ceased stated, in her husband's presence, that he had done it
with a sword. She subsequently slid to him, " Elijah, I
freely forgive you, as I hope the Lord will forgive me; but
always avoid passion?'
Mr. Picarre addressed the jury, contending that the facts
proved were consistent with the supposition that the deceased,
in resisting the effort of her daughter to remove her from the
room, fell back on the sword, which the prisoner was too
much intoxicated to know was unsheathed.
A number of witnesses deposed to the prisoner s good
character.

The Learned 3 UDGE summed up, explaining the distinction
between murder, manslaughter, and misadventure.
The jury retired, and after considerable deliberation re-
turned a verdict of Guilty of manslaughter, and he was sen-
tenced to two years' imprisonment.

NORTH ERN CIRC VIT.— York, July 17.
CROWN COURT.—( Before Mr. Justice WIGHTbIAN.)
Henry Healey, James Sayner, and Thomas Sentor were
indicted for a rape on Charlotte Flooks, at Mirfield, on the
13th of April last.
Mr. Overend and Mr. Campbell Foster prosecuted; and
Mr. Hardy defended the prisoners.
It appeared that the prosecutrix is the wife of a labourer
on the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, and lives at a
cottage at Crossley, near Mirfield. She and her husband
were frum the south, and had lived there about two years.
On Easter Tuesday there was a tea party at a public-house
called the Shepley Arms, at some little distance from Cross-
ley, to which the prosecutrix had been invited by a Mrs.
Dyson. Her husband, it appeared, forbade her to go; but
unable to resist the temptation of seeing the amusements,
she walked there about eight o'clock in the evening, atter
the tea party, and jollied Mrs. Dyson, in a large room where
a number of men and women were, dancing and singing to a
fiddle, and drinking beer and gin. Here Mrs.
Flooks stayed until halt-past 11 o'clock, and in
the excitement of the scene, aided by the gin and beer
wenth outme
of which she partook, she became nearly intoxi-
cated. She then asked a young man named Hallas, a
neighbour, to see her home; but he having his sweetheart
there, asked a married man named Robert Senior to go with
her home, which he did. Before this it appeared she had
given Robert Senior a kiss, and he had called her
his
wife,"o
and the landlord seeing it had told him he had better
go Seniorhad
difficulty in getting her along. A number of Young men
there (some 16 or 18), suspecting, it wool dseem, that some
impropriety would ensue between Robert Senior and the
prosecutrix, a
lane called "The Lan,leading to some
Land, followed them down the

fields, across which was a pathway to Crossley. In
this lane Robert Senior was tripped up by them, and the
prosecutrix was pushed about and thrown down by the
crowd of men, and, as she swore, forcibly ravished in this
lane by three of these men successively—one of whom she
swore was the prisoner Healey. Robert Senior, by his own
account, gut separated from her, and did not see her tor half
an hour. She then went over the fields followed by the
crowd of men, and was knocked down twice in a field called
Oates's field near her own house; and in that field ravished
again successively by six of these men—the others stand-
in, around and holding her. She screamed out " Murder!"
and shouted her husband's name, and said "if she
was spared she would make an example of them." A
great number of witnesses were called, some of them
young men who had witnessed these proceedings,
and who identified the three prisoners es part of the men
who ravished the prosecutrix under the circumstances men-
tioned. The details are too disgusting for publicatione:

respecting his conduct to the prosecutrix. though in his own
statement he persisted that he was laid behind a wall, stupi-
fied from drink and a blow he received when he was knocked
down in the lane. On taking the prosecutrix home her
husband led her in, and was very angry with her for being
out so late. She sat down in a chair by the bedside,
being unable to go to bed, and then said nothing to him.
Her husband got into bed again and slept until
near 4 o'clock in the morning, when he got up and struck a
light and found his wife sitting in the chair, crying, and with
her face all bloody. He then asked her what was the matter
and she told him bow she had been ill-used. She went to
bed and was unable to get up for two days. A surgeon was
sent for, who found her person bruised and swollen, and she
was obliged to be under his treatment for three weeks. The
prisoner Healy, on being takeu into custody, made a state-
ment inculpating the other two prisoners and four other men,
but denying his own share in the disgusting transaction:
and the other prisoners denied the truth of hiss t
Mr. HARDY', for the defence, contended th woniarg
conduct had been light at the public-house, afi'd•that she was
too drunk to allow any credence to be placed, on-her sto.tie=-
ment. Robert Senior had evidently not told" the truth, and
the other witnesses called, who described the details, were
accomplices in the transaction. He called witnesses to prove
that the prosecutrix had been guilty of ligheind imprePir
conduct with the men at the tea party.
_ _

Mr. OVEREND having replied,
His Loausurr carefully summed up the evidence bearing
against each prisoner.
The Jury having retired brought in a verdict of Guilty
against all the prisoners.
They were each sentenced to be transported for fif4en
years.

HOME ClRCUlT.—Chelmsford, July 17.
The commission was opened here on Thursday, and the
proceedings of the first two days were wholly devoid of any
public interest. The calendar was an unusually ligbf one,
and the offences charged were, with two exceptions, of a tri-
vial character.

Mr. Justice tlAnaE sat on the Civil Side, and dispnspd;of
the business on the list, which was also an unusually meagre
one.

_.

:CROWN SIDE.-- (Before Chief Justice JEuvls.)
Ellen Venns, alias White, 23, spinster, was indicted for
concealing the birth of her child.
Mr. Ryland prosecuted, and Mr. T. Chambers defended.
The circumstances attending the prisoner's guilt were of
a very horrible character. Early in February
_last she went
as cook to the Rev. Mr. Bishop, of Clarkton, and shortly
after he received a letter stating that she was then pregnant,
but she not in any way by appearance warranting him to
believe the allegation he paid no attention to the letter.
On the 24th of March the Rev. Gentleman and his fa.
wily left home for a few days, and upon their return on the
27th he learnt that the prisoner had been unwell, and he
fancied her appearance was changed. On the next day
(Sunday) she went to church, and seemed to be quito well.
On the Wednesday following she was left alone in the
house, they all being at church, and on the following day
a portion of the body of an infant was found in the servants'
privy. A further search was made, and the remaining
portions (excepting the pelvis and part of the neck) of a
newly born infant were found. The prisoner was then
taxed with having been delivered, which she denied. A
surgeon was sent for, and having examined her found that
she had been recently delivered. The body of the infant had
been so cut to pieces that he could not tell whether born
alive or to what sex it belonged; but the appearances of
the flesh made it certain that it was newly born, and had not
been many hours where found. Some traces of blood were
found in her box.

........
The defence set up was that she had not been confined at
the time alluded to.

The jury found her Guilty.
His LORDSHIP said it was a horrible case, and that this
was not the first child she had had. He then sentenced
her to 12 months' imprisonment and hard labour.
