A gentleman inquired when that bargain was made ?

Mr. UrRQUHART—When they got the English Govern.
ment holding secret comtnunications with the very Power
to resist whom its whole policy was directed, what could
be the object of concealment ? If it was not that, there
had been infamy, the men must have been tools. It wits
his object to excite their attention to the fact that they
had been bought and sold. He took these means to
save himself with them, and he was labouring to save
both them and himself.' He might have sold them if he
liked, but he was determined to save them. This, then,
was the bargain --Constantinople for [tits in, and Egypt
and Candia for the English. Mr. Urquhart said, the
Great Napoleon might have had the same bargain, and
read his statement, made at St. He;ena, to that effect.
(The speech was interrupted by cries of impatience,
laughter, and incredulity, about equally mingled.)
The CRAIRMAN decided that Mr. Watkiii,i'it.iiendinent
wax not an amendment; nut the meeting solved the
difficulty about dealing with it, by expres,ing a wish to
have both motion and amendment, and accordingly
carried each of them . •

A third resolution was carried to the effect that at
association be formed in Manchester for Lhe purpty-m of
acquiring and disseminating constitutional and diplo.
matte itnowledge ; and this concluded the proceedings,

THE SUSPECTED MURDER AND MUTILATION Or THE
BODY AT PADDlNGTOri.—Yesterlay .Ir. Brent resumed
' arid concluded an inquiry at the Bank of England, Pad-
dington, into the circumstances connected with the
death of a male infant, whose mutilated body was dis-
covered in a sewer near Connaught square, under cir-
cumstances already detailed in The Sun. The iiiveiti-
gation w. s adjourned, as both the coroner and jury
considered it highly probshle that the guilty party
or parties would be detected, should the testimony of
the roan Geale, who found the remains while ratting
in the sewer, and who stated, as a person well ac-
quainted with sewers, that they must have come from one
of the adjoining drains in Berkeley—treet, as there was
no stream to have carried them down, and the flood-
gates ha I not been opened. for upwarjs of
,rt week prior
to the finding of the body; prove correct Tne police
were instructed to make all necessary inquiries in the
neighbourhood respecting ,the atrocious affair ; and on
the re-assembling of the jury yesterday, Sergeant White,
13 D, state I that he had inane every inquiry in Berkeley-
street, and its immediate locality; without gaining any
information which could lead in any way to the eluci-
dation of the affair. He had also, in comp:my with the
witness Geale, descended into the sewer and examined all
the drains belonging to the houses in Berkeley-street,.
without discovering any portions of the mi,ssing remains.
After the examination of other witnesses, the jury re-
turned an open verdict, leaving the affair in the hands
of the police for further investigation.
DEATH OF PROFESSOR JAMESON.—This distinguished
man, whose name has been familiar in the scientific
circles of Europe and America for half-a-century, died
yesterday at his residence in this city at a very advanced
age, being on the borders of eighty. Professor Jame-
son has been for a considerable period in a declining
state of health. He attediptel to lecture in the session
1852.3, but was compelled to forego this and all active
duties. In 1804 he was appointed Professor of Natural
History in the University of Edieliureh, and has there-
fore held that chair for the long period
of 50 years. and
had been in the University 10 years longer than any of
his colleagues its the Senates Ac rdemiatis. In 1803 ho
founded the Wernerian Natural History Society, and
in 1819 commenced the Edinburgh new Philos() hical
Journal. Professor Jameson oontributed largely to the
Encyclopaedia Brit-tnnica, and has left behind him in his
works ample evidence of • his devotion to science. He
was elected a corresponding member of the Institute of
France-...was a member of the French Academy, and
many other scien-ific bodies both at home and abroad ;
and we need scarcely add that his name has been long
associated with the University 'Museum, which owes
no little of its celebrity to his labour and zeal. Few or
none who have passed away have done more to sustain
the fame of the University, and during a long course of
time.—Cdledoraan, Mercury j yeeteiday.
