EXII?AORDINARY SURGICAL

OPERATION.,

A surgical operation of an extraordinary charac-
ter was performed on Sunday week, at Southamp-
ton, by Dr. Wiblin, a surgeon of that town. The
operation in question consisted in the removal of an
enormous tumour, which had been growing from
the lower part of the body of a poor man for seven-
teen years. This mass, when suspended before the
operation, weighed upwards of 501b5., and, as may
be imagined, the patient was rendered a most piti-
able object, The case had excited great interest,
as the man had been sent up to London some time
since for the purpose of being examined by some of
the most eminent surgeons in the metropolis ; and
Dr. Wiblin, finding that the majority of these gen-
tlemen decided with him that an operation was
feasible, determined to remove the tumour. A largo
number of surgeons, both London and provincial,
met at Southampton on Sunday week to witness
and assist in this formidable proceeding, which was
accomplished with great dexterity by Dr. Wiblin,
in about half-an-hour, the patient being under the
influence of chloroform the whole time. It is about
thirty years since the late Mr. Aston Key removed
a similar growth from a poor Chinaman, in Guy's
Hospital. In that case, however, death occurred on

IRELAND.

DUBLIN, SEPT. 27.
There was a formidable riot at Tralee, County
Kerry, on Thursday night. Signor Gavazzi has
been some weeks in this country lecturing on the
state of Italy. He is warmly encouraged by the
more zealous class of Protestants, who enjoy the
dashing style in which he assails the Pope and the
priesthood. His lectures are therefore numerously
attended, and the receipts from the sale of tickets
are, I understand, satisfactory. In addition to these
he no doubt receives something considerable in
answer to his earnest appeals on behalf of schools
which he has established in Italy, and which he
declares are doing much good in advancing the
cause of the Reformation in that country. Having
lectured in Dublin, he proceeded to the provinces,
and on Thursday evening last he appeared in the
large room of the principal hotel in Tralee. His
subject is an exciting one at the present moment,
and it is one on which the Roman Catholics of
Munster are peculiarly sensitive. Gavazzi does
not mince matters in dealing with such matters. He
speaks strongly, sometimes coarsely, and has no con-
sideration for the prejudices or the feelings of
Roman Catholics. It so happened that he had some
Roman Catholics among his hearers on Thursday
evening, attracted by his name and the title of his
discourse—" Garibaldi and the present political
State of Italy." The lecturer made some remarks
on the Pope's Irish Brigade which greatly exas-
perated his Roman Catholic hearers, wounding their
national susceptibilities as well as their religious
prejudices. They created a disturbance and inter-
rupted the lecture. The police, assisted by some
Protestants, ejected the disturbers, but not without
resistance and great commotion. Eggs were flung
into the room and broken against the walls. Order
having been restored,the lecturer proceeded to the end
of his discourse. In the meantime the expelled dis-
turbers were setting the town in a flame. An im-
mense mob gathered round the hotel, and began to
attack it with stones, breaking every pane of glass
in the windows and otherwise damaging the build-
ing. The besieged audience saved themselves with
difficulty from the dangerous missiles. Had any of
them ventured out, they would probably have been
seriously injured.
The disturbances were renewed during the day,
and more rioting was apprehended last night. It
is not likely, however, that anything important
occurred, as the telegraph has been silent on the
subject during the day. Several persons were struck
with stones, but it is said no serious injuries have
been inflicted.

ROYAL SURREY THEATRE.

Mr. Creswick made his last bow to a Surrey audi-
ence on Saturday in the character of Sir Giles Over-
reach. Mr. Shepherd has now taken all the re-
sponsibilities of management on his own shoulders,
and will inaugurate his new season at the close of
this week with an elaborate drama, adapted from
the French.

THE THEATRES IN HOLY WEEK.—Ort Friday
afternoon (says the .Tohn Bull), in consequence of
the illness of the Lord Chamberlain, Mr. Spencer
Ponsonby received a small deputation instead of the
larger one that had been proposed, who presented a
memorial, very numerously and influentially signed,
praying that the ancient clause prohibiting the
opening of theatres in the Holy Week may be in-
serted in the licenses about to be issued for next
year. The names of one or two bishops known to
be most opposed to the innovation will be missed ;
bat we learn that the reason they are not appended
to the memorial, which has been got up by the
English Church Union with such zeal at this dull
season, is that they thought it was a matter for the
whole episcopate as a body to take up. We trust
their lordships may yet adopt this course, as
although the time for granting the licenses is close
at hand, the forms have, we understand, not yet
been drawn up.

HER MAJESTY'S TIIEATRE.—Mr. Mapleson re-
opens this theatre to-night, Tuesday, Thursday, and Sahli.-
day. The ever-popular " T rovatore " is to be the first opera,
with Tietjens and Giugliniin the two principal characters.
Flotow's " Martha " follows on Tuesday, with Tietjens,
Giuglini. and Formes ; and on Thursday Donizetti's
" Luci di Lammermoor, with Titjens as the heroine. The
final opera is not yet named. The enterprise will doubtles s
be extremely welcome to the strangers now in the metro-
polis.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

There was a full average supply of foreign stock on offer
in to•day's market, in, for the most part, middling condi-
tion. Sales progressed slowly, and prices had a drooping
tendency.

From our own grazing districts, as well as from Ireland,
the receipts of beasts were seasonably extensive as to num-
ber, but their general weight and quality were by no means
prime. All breeds commanded less attention than on Mon-
day last; indeed, the demand for them may be considered
heavy, at a decline in the quotations of 2d per Sibs, and at
which a clearance was not effected. A few very superior
Scots and crosses realised 4s 3d, but the general top figure
for beef did not exceed 4s 6d per Slbs.

From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire,
we received 2,850 shorthorns, &c. ; from other parts of
England, 700 various breeds ; from Scotland, 7 Scots and
crosses ; and from Ireland, 1,200 oxen and heifers.
With sheep we were fairly supplied, and their general
quality was prime Downs and halt-breds moved off slowly,
at prices barely equal to last week. All other breeds were
dull, and 2d per Blbs lower than on this day se'enight.
The best Downs realised 5s 4d per Blbs.

Calves, the supply of which was moderate, met a slow
sale, at late rates—vis., from 4s to 5s per Sibs.
There was a steady, but by no means active, inquiry for
pigs, at last week's prices.

TILE DISTRESS IN _ROCHDALE.

A meeting, called by circular, was held yester-
day in the Council-room, Rochdale, to consider
what should be done in the present state of distress:
Among those present were the Mayor and Mr.
Bright, M.P. The Mayor occupied the chair. Mr.
Holgate, clerk to the guardians, read the winter
statistics of relief for 1847, 1856, 1857, and 1861.
T, _ - -

'he numbers for the Christmas week of each year
were-1847,518572,8
4,146-67—£231 ; 1856, 2,038—Z128 9s.
£159 13s. 7d. ; 1861, 2,150
£146 15s. 2d. A discussion ensued, in the course of
which some gentlemen expressed themselves favour-
able to a subscription for the relief of local distress,
while others urged that it would suffice for present
requirements that the stricter orders of the Poor
Law should be relaxed or suspended so long as the
distress continued. Mr. Bright, M.P., said that
Rochdale was better circumstanced than some other
towns, in that it had another trade besides cotton to
rely upon. Then, again, the co-operative societies
had taught a large proportion of the people provi-
dence, and, in this respect, at least, had done good,

scribed for their relief.—Looking at the figures
which had been read, he could not avoid coming to
the conclusion that the calling of the meeting was
premature. The Poor Law Board might be asked,
without any what he might call mealy-mouthiness,
to grant the guardians powers, in certain cases, to
relieve, on the understanding that in prosperous
times the amount advanced should be repaid. The
Board would not, he thought, require much press-
ing at this moment. The Commissioners, like other
members of the Government, wished to keep things
quiet if they could; and they would not be found so
difficult to deal with as they might have been in
prosperous times. He must confess he was not
disposed to take so sombre a view of the crisis as
many did. In conclusion, the hon. member ex-
pressed his readiness to cooperate with the meeting
either by way of subscription or in the manner he
had suggested. The Mayor remarked that Messrs.
Ashworth had already commenced making advances

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—,Tan. 14.

BOW-STREET.—A THEATRICAL FRACAS.—Mr.
Augustus Harris, lessee of the Princess's Theatre,
appeared to answer a summons charging him with
an assault on Mr. Frederick Balser Chatter,on, the
acting manager of the Lyceum Theatre.
Counsel appeared on both sides. Mr. Sleigh,
instructed by Mr. Holmes, for the complainant ; and
Mr. Oigard, instructed by Messrs. Lewis and Lewis,
of Ely-place, for the defendant.
Mr. Sleigh, in opening the case, expressed great
regret at seeing two gentlemen of great respecta-
bility in the antigonistic position in which they
no* appeared. But as tho voice and custom of
society in the present times had unatinionsly con-
demned the practice of duelling, the complainant
had no alternative hit to take these proceedings in
reference to that which had teen Committed upon
nct merely an assault) but a very grog's. indig-
nity. Mr. sleigh then stated the Circumstances as
they appear in the following evidence, and ob-
served that it might be asked why, after being
insulted by Mr. lkirris pulling his nose and spit-
ting in his face, Mr. Chatterton did not do what
ninety-nine men of spirit out of a hundred would
have done—knock his assailant down ? But, con-
sidering that Mr. Chatterton, as acting manager,
was responsible for the preservation of order in
the theatre, and therefore vas the last person
who should in that place break the peace, or join in
breaking the peace, even in retaliation for so grave
an outrage, he thought Mr. Chatterton deserved
great credit for the self-control which he had exer-
cised in restraining himself from striking the defen-
dant in return. It was much to be regretted that
the defendant had not apologised, but if he even
now frankly offered to do so it would be accepted.
Mr. Giffard said the defendant had offered to apo-
logise upon a certain condition, which had been
rejected.
Mr. Sleigh then called the complainant, Mr. F.
Balser Chatterton, who said—l am the acting
manager of the Lyceum Theatre. I know the de-
fendant, but have not lately been on intimate terms
with him. On Monday evening, the 6th inst., I

and keep steadily in view the development of the
constitution.

" The Budget will show an increase in the public
revenue, which will serve to diminish the addi-
tional credit required for military reform."
His Majesty then dwelt on the happy issue of the
Anglo-American difficulty, and continued .
" My interview with the Emperor of the French
has already had the effect of placing the friendly
relations between Prussia and France upon a more
intimate footing. The negotiations for the regula-
tion of commerce between the Zollverein and France
are still in progress.

" My Government is continually employed in
preparing the way for the uniform military organi-
sation of all the German States and in caring for
the defence of the German seaboard and the deve-
lopment of the national fleet.

"Prussia will be indefatigable in endeavouring
to introduce reforms into the Federal constitution
corresponding with the actual proportions of
strength and the interests of the entire father-
land."

The King regretted that the constitutional con-
flict in Electoral Hesse continued, and said that he
still had hopes of the re-establishment of the con-
stitution of 1831.

His Majesty announced that Prussia, conjointly
with Austria, had entered into confidential nego-
ciations with the Danish Government in reference
to the Duchies, and said :

"In common with all other members of the
German Confederation, Prussia will uphold the
rights of the Confederation and the principle of
international union.

" The development of our institutions must be
subordinate to the strength and power of the
country. I can never permit that the progressive
development of interior political life should ques-
tion or endanger the rights of the Crown and the
power and security of Prussia.

" The political state of Europe requires har-
monious cooperation between myself and my
people, and I reckon with confidence upon the
patriotic support of the representatives."

HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK.

(From the .Regzstrar-Gencrees TVeekly Return.)
The mortality in London returned for the week
that ended last Saturday was excessively high ; the
number of deaths was 1,561. But it was exceeded
by the births in the same period, which were 1,881.
The average number of deaths in corresponding
weeks of ten previous years (corrected) is 1,440. It
appears that during the last week 17 persons died
daily in excess of the number that would have died
if the estimated rate of mortality had ruled.
The week has been fatal to persons in advanced
life. The deaths in the previous return at 60 years
of age and upwards were 287 ; in the present re•
turn they are 381. There are no less than 14
nonagenarians, whose tale of years is told ; 3 of
whom had arrived at the age of 95, 2at 97. Besides
these, there are two centenarians—a widow, aged
100 years, who died at 6, George-place, Greenwich;
and another widow, whose age is reported to have
been 102, and who died in the workhouse, Princes-
street, St. George-in-the-East. Amongst the former
is a man, 97 years and 11 months, who had served
on board the Venerable and the Bellerophon, and
had been implicated in the mutiny of the Nore, but
was employed in the Royal navy for some years
afterwards. His name was Nicholas Weatherby ;
and for years before his death he was seen daily
standing with the model of a ship on Waterloo-
bridge.
The deaths by bronchitis rose from 158 in the
pneu.

Twelve deaths, all except one those of infants,
were caused by suffocation. The Registrar of Holy-

fact that in his return alone are recorded three

The wife of
another married woman brought from 8, Mint-
street, to the workhouse, Borough-road, died from
want. A labourer died in St. Mary's Hospital
from the "inhalation of chloroform."
The mortality from scarlatina did not increase
last week, but the deaths from diphtheria rose to
27, which seems to indicate that the complaint thus
designated is more dependent than the former on
that state of the weather which aggravates bron-
chial affections. Scarlatina was fatal in Kentish
Town and Fulham.
Last week the births of 918 boys and 963 girls, in
all 1,881 children, were registered in London. In

THE DISTRESS 121' ROCHDALE.

A meeting, called by circular, was held yester-
day in the Council-room, Rochdale, to consider
what should be done in the present state of distress;
Among those present were the Mayor and Mr.
Bright, M.P. The Mayor occupied the chair. Mr.
Holgate, clerk to the guardians, read the winter
statistics of relief for 1847, 1856, 1857, and 1861.
The numbers for the Christmas week of each year
were-1847, 4,467—L231 ; 1856, 2,038—X128 9s.
5d.; 1857, 2,816-4159 13s. 7d.; 1861, 2,150-
1.16 15s. 2d. A discussion ensued, in the course of
which some gentlemen expressed themselves favour-
able to a subscription for the relief of local distress,
while others urged that it would suffice for present
requirements that the stricter orders of the Poor

people to understand that they
might spend whatever they liked in prosperous times,
and that in a time of distress a fund should be sub-
scribed for their relief.—Looking at the figures
which had been read, he could not avoid coming to
the conclusion that the calling of the meeting was
premature. The Poor Law Board might be asked,
without any what he might call mealy-mouthiness,
to grant the guardians powers, in certain cases, to
relieve, on the understanding that in prosperous
times the amount advanced should be repaid. The
Board would not, he thought, require much press-
ing at this moment. The Commissioners, like other
members of the Government, wished to keep things
quiet if they could; and they would not be found SO
difficult to deal with as they might have been in
prosperous times. He must confess he was not
disposed to take so sombre a view of the crisis us
many did. In conclusion, the hon. member

he
prcssid his readiness to cooperate with the meeting
either by way of subscription or in the manner
had suggested. The Mayor remarked that Messrs.

to the guardians, and the Mayor suggested that col-
lections should be made in the churches and chapels

WATSON V. WATSON AND "WILKINSON.

Sir Charles Watson, Bart., petitioner, instituted
a suit for a dissolution of marriage by reason of his
wife's adultery, and claimed £lO,OOO damages. The
case was heard at the sittings after last Term, and
the jury found a verdict to the effect that the alleged
adultery had been committed; but that the peti-
tioner had been guilty of adultery with divers
females, and they assessed the damages at 40. The
caso bus been too recently before the public to
require any recapitulation of the facts.
Mr. Hautten, on the part of the petitioner, now
prayed the judgment of the Court, which has been
reserved.

Mr. Macaulay, CI C., for the co-respondent, con-
tended that a month should elapse before the Court
should pronounce judgment; cud the trial had not
taken place until the 18th of last month.

Sir Cresswell agreed with Mr. Macaulay, and
deferred judgment.
Mr. Macaulay applied for hifi client's costs.
Sir C. Cresswell—you appeal. for the co-respon-
dent. I shall allow you no costs. (Laughter.)
