CORONERS' INQUESTS

FATAL AFFRAY BETWEEN TWO PRIVATES
OF THE SCOTCH FUSILIER GUARDS.

On Monday afternoon an inquest was held before
Messrs Gell and Higgs, Coroner and Deputy Coroner for.
Westminster, at 'the Feathers, Grosvenor-place, on the
body of Alexander Bremner, aged twenty-one, a private
in the second battalion of the Scotch Fusilier Guards-.
Mr. Thomas Richardson, assistant-surgeon to the regi-
ment, said that he saw deceased about ten o'clock on the.
morning of the 17th inst. at the regimental hospital.,
Grosvenor-place, to which he was brought from the St:.
George's barracks, Charing-cross. Deceased was then
insensible and vomiting:, and exhibited symptoms of I avi ng
recently received very serious in jury to the head. -Witness
attended him to the 22d, when he died. Since death wit-
ness had examined the body internally, and discoverc-41
transverse fracture of the left temporal bone, abOut three:
inches in length, apparently by a fall against some sharp
body. That injury was certainly the cause of deceased's
death. By Mr. conversed with deceased before
his death. lie told me he had no recollection of having
fallen down, and made no charge against any person.
Edward Jones, a private in the same battalion with de-
ceased, said, about nine o'clock on the morning of t7.:a-
turday, the 17th instant, I was in the barr....ek-roofe
St. George's barracks. Deceased and chcrat ninete,
other privates -and a corporal were at the time in tli
room. Deceased said he had lost his clothes-brush,
asked every one in the room if he had got it.
answered. He particularly asked private James Ili'.
sett whether he had got it, who said "No," an:
shortly afterwards left the room. In Blisset's aba..loE,
deceased found his brush in the former's havresack, a.
then strewed all the other things that were in it on the,
floor. When Blissett returned and saw his things sca'-
terecl on the floor, and, having been told that it was dc-
c2ased who had so scattered them, he began quarrelling, an-1
said, "I will do something for you," on which deceased
replied, " Two can play at that game." Bissett appeared
to be in a great rage, and sat down on his bed for four
or five minutes. The corporal then left the room, and
the moment he did Bissett got up, and walked silently
across the room towards deceased, who .had one foL t
(the boot of which he was cleaning) on a beneh..
and, seizing him by the throat with the right liar,
and placing the other on deceased's loins, he titre
him down, and fell upon him. Deceased fell back-
wards over the fender, and his head struck strongly
against the hearthstone. By the Jury—The fall rendere'd
deceased insensible. He became black in the face. Bissett
seeing what he had done became deadly pale, and the per-
spiration flowed down his face profusely. He seemed
frightened at and sorry for what he had done, and tried.
to lift deceased up. Ido not think he meant to injure
deceased, but merely to throw him down. They Iver,-
, usually on good terms. As speedily as possible deceased
was conveyed to the regimental hospital. Verdict, after
corroboratory evidence having been adduced, " Acci-
dental death," the Jury requesting that their censure
might be conveyed to Bissett for what they considered
his cowardly conduct towards a defenceless fellow-soidier.

THE REFORMERS OF RENFREW-

SHIRE.
(From the Renfrewshire Reformer.)
DP;NER TO MR. WALLACE, NI.P. FOR GREEN-
WK, AND MR. P. M. STEWART, M.P. FOR

RENFREWSHIItE.
Tuesday night, about 200 of the Reformers of this
town and neighbourhood sat down to dinner, in the As-
sembly Rooms, in celebration of the triumph of Reform
in the. town of Greenock, and the county of Renfrew.
Provost Baine in the chair.
After the usual toasts of the " Queen," " Prince
Albert,` "• the Princess Royal," &c.
The CHAIRMAN said, the toast he had now the honour
of proposing was one which he was sure would meet
with a warm and heartfelt respouse from this as-
sembly. It was " her Majesty's Ministers."—(lmmense
cheering.) He found that it happened not unfre-
quently with the Ministers of the Crown, as it did with
private individuals, their faults and omissions were
brought into view, while their good deeds were laid aside
and forgotten.—(Hear.) The better rule, in his opinion,
was, to keep in view the good deeds of persons in their
situations, and to receive every fair and reasonable ex-
cuse for their omissione.(Applause.) If they acted
upon this rule, they would find that her Majesty's pre-
sent Ministers, and their immediate predecessors, who
pursued the same line of policy, had conferred the greatest
benefits upon the country that had ever ,been received
from any Ministry whatever.—(Hear, and cheers.) He
needed, certainly, to mention no more than the Reform
Bill, which had first invested them with the right of
sending a Member to Parliament; the Municipal Corpo-
rations Bill; the complete opening up of trade to India
and China; the abolition of colonial slavery; and last,
though not feast in the enumeration, the establishmentof a
uniform rate of postage, to convince every reasonable man
that the Ministess who had introduced, defended, and car-
ried these measures, in spite of the most virulent opposi-
tion, had thereby established a just claim to be enrolled
amongst the greatest benefactors of their country.—
(Great cheering.) But of all the praiseworthy acts
of the present Government, there was not one
which called for a greater measure of gratitude
than that for which the late House of Commons
voted them unworthy of its confidencee—(Great
cheering.) lie referred to the proposal to -allow to the
people of this country a more free and liberal system of
commercial intercourse with foreign nations.—(Loud
cheers.) There was no measure within the power of
the Legislature which was calculated to confer upon
the country such substantial benefits or to meet the
exigencies and overcome the difficulties in which they
were placed, by the extravagances of the Tories in
former days, than the establishment of entire
and unbounded freedom of trade.—(Cheers.) He
meant such freedom of trade as would permit every
man W carry the produce of his labour to the best
market, and. bring back in return whatever he liked,
subject to no restriction or prohibition, but such as
was actually necessary fur the purpose of revenue. He
maintained that those who wished a change in the present
exclusive system wished to take no advantage of those who
were opposed to them. They were of opinion that the rule
which ought to be adopted for the guidance of all, was
simply this ; give the merchant and manufacturer a fair
flea!, and, no favour, and this was all they required.
-eh) one could deny that this was a just and manly rule,
but it was not a rule which the monopolists would sub-
mit to. They wished to be hedged round with what
they were pleased to call protection; that is, they insisted
on being allowed an unfair advantage over their fellow-
citizens ; or, to speak in language which he was not very
fond of using, but which was not more plain than true,
they insisted that all other classes of the community-
should be plundered for their benefit.----(lmmense cheer-
ing.) That the rich man should be deprived of a por-
tion of his wealth, and what was worse, that the poor
man should be robbed of a portion of his scanty earnings
—(continued cheering)—to enhance the value of their
monopolies or swell their rent rolls.—(Cheers.) The
toast was drank amidst loud and long continued cheering.
The CeateneraN said the toast he had now the honour
of proposing was one of the two leading toasts of the
evening' being the health of their excellent and much
respected representative, Mr. Wallace.—(Great cheering
which was again and again renewed as the Chairman was
about to proceed.) He was sure they were all
most happy to meet with Mr. Wallace on this
occasion, and to offer him their most sincere
and hearty thanks and congratulations on his
being again elected to represent the town of Greenock,
in Parliament.—(Hear, hear.) There was only one
particular in Mr. W.'s public conduct which he would
advert to, which was his niefitorious and successful
exertions on the Postage question.—(Great applause.)
The former Post-office tax was a tax upon knowledge of
every kind, and was to the poor a complete prohibition
of every kind of written communication with absent
friends, thus rending asunder the dearest ties, and sti-
fling one of the purest and most virtuous enjoyments of
which their nature was capable.—(Cheers.) The advan-
tage and enjeyment opened up by the penny postage
could not be estimated by money ; it was in point of fact
aboae all money and all price—(Great cheering)—and
had Mr. Wallace never done more than to carry that
measure, he had thereby earned a claim to the lasting
gratitude of the whole country.—(Renewed cheering.)
The toast was received with the greatest enthusiasm.
Mr. Wateace (when the cheering had subsided) said
lie rose with the greatest satisfaction to address them on
the present occasion.—(Cheers.) If he were to say he did
not, he would not be giving the honest expression of his
heart. It was an honour of which he was indeed proud,
he being elected the fourth time to represent in the Corn-
saons House' of Parliameat such an intelligent, enter-
pri,ing, and wealthy a community as the inhabitants of
Greenock ; and' he was no less proud that the principles
ivhich had first indifek‘d the constituency to choose hini,
and which lie had uniformly supported in the situation in
which they had placed him, Were those very principles
neon the strength of which they had again returned him
to Parliament. It was mast satisfactory to him that after
a nine years' trial, it had been their pleasure again to put
him forward to defend those principles, and to being
them, if possible, more generally into operation. The
system of progressive Reform had been a principle which
Ire (Mr. Wallace) had always endeavoured to act upon,
and for the first three years of his Parliamentary life, im-
mediately after the Reform Bill, reform was progressive ;
but he was sorry to say that for the last six years the Re-
form Bill might be said to be in a positive state of abeyance.
He thought that the present Government had not suffi-
ciently progressed with reform when they had the power
to do so.—(Hear.) He would not conceal the sentiments
which he entertained, and therefore had expressed
boldly that lie considered the Ministers were them-
selves much to blame for the situation in which they
found themselves placed. But at the same time he was
not blind to the fact that in numerous instances they had
been prevented by their political opponents from
proceeding as they really' wished.—(Hear, hear. Mr.
Wallace here read and commented upon extracts from
the speeches of Sir Robert Peel to his constituents at
Tamworth, and to the Merchant Tailors' Corporation of
London, showing that the constant and uniform endea-
vours of that statesman and the party of which he was the
leader, was to arrest the progress ofevery liberal measure.)
From the time when the fluke of Wellington had been
invested with all the offices of state, the hopes of
that party, permanently to regain office, had increased
daily, and nothing had been left undone which could
bring them to that condition. They would all recollect
thet Sir Robert Peel hail succeeded to office in 1335,
that he was beat upon the address, upon the Speakership,
and other miner matters, and latterly, that he had been
again forced to resign on the appropriation principle of the
Church of Ireland Bill. Since that time the cry of regis-
ter, register, had been constantly reiterated, for the pur-
pose, as Sir Robert Peel avowed, of restoring what
he called•the..just influence of the aristocracy in the re-
presentation of the country. They all knew what that
meant, and most successfully did they prevail in urging on
the Government to its certain fate—the just influence of
the aristocracy truly ! What right had this class to any-
thing beyond their votes as individuals, any more than
the great body of the people who lived in the towns and
cities of the empire ? but, acting under this determination
their numbers
had gradually increased, till now, he be-
lieved they would have a clear majority of nearly eighty.
He would ask. if this would have occurred if the Liberal Go-.
vernincnt had secured to the people household suffrage, tri-
ennial Parliaments, and especially Vote by Ballot ? Could
they have driven the 'constituency into corners, and
forced them to have voted against their conscientious con-
viction, if the voters had had that protection? He was
convinced that they would have been able to do no such
thing ; but the present Ministry bad undoubtedly for a
time lost the opportunity of securing Liberal measure;
and they would have to abide the result. At the
Tamworth public dinnera'on the 7th of August, 1837,
which took place immediately before the general elec-
tion, Sir Robert Peel, in the course of his speech, spoke
as fol ows to the constituency ,of that town :—The Con-
servatives," he said, " were determined to use all their
power to preserve the just influence of the aristocracy in
reference to the representation of the country ; they had
Manifested their strength in the last Parliament, and
would return above 300 to the next. He rejoiced at the
very large return which had already taken place of Con-
servative Members ; for by it they would be enabled to
prevent any encroachment upon the Constitution, and
give encouragement to the Government to oppose suc-
cessfully the questions of Household Suffrage, Triennial
Parliaments, and Vote by Ballot. They should, there-
fore, rep. • liber that they (the electors) had a duty to per-
form. 'the advice which had been given by some per-
sons was, agitate, agitate, agitate ; the advice which
he would give them would be, • register, register, regis-
ter.' Let them be always prepared for an election, and
by these means they would have the inestimable
advantage of protecting their own . property and
their own liberty, and they would have alsO
the gratifying satisfaction of knowing that they
had not allowed the rights and privileges which ought to
descend to their posterity to be injured." And so say I,
said Mr. Wallace. Let us always be prepared for an
e:e:'tion, and the sooner we have another the better. He
held in his hand a communication from a friend in Lon-
don, which contained list of all those Conservatives who
had driven Reformers out of counties, and the burghs,
throughout the kingdom, and it surprised him to see a
manlier of excellent men who had been ousted, to allow
those who had the support of the landed interest to get
into Parliament, although they possessed no qualification
for the situation whatever, but that of being prepared to
ro s the people by means of the Corn-laws.—(Great
cheering.) With by
exceptions these new Members
were not known to the country, but as they could vote,
theyt would be exceedingly useful to the party to which
Rey were attached. It had been asked how the Minis-
ters of the Crown would act on the opening of Parlia-
ment. That was a difficult question to answer, but he
thought it would not be very difficult to say what course
Sir Robert Peel
off
t‘hvould take. He (Mr. W.) believed he
would put
of. the consideration of what should be
the
ruary. In that way Parliament till the month. of Feb-
he would keep the country in
a state of expeetati, and if by that ti
revival of trade should me symptoms of a
aPrear, then on the which such a eire popularity
umetance weuld give hem' —for he would

- -
take all the credit of the increased improvement to the
Conservative Government—he would attempt to carry
on the administration of the affairs of the nation.—(ikar
and cheers.) But he hoped it would be borne in mind
who had placed the:country in the situation in which it
now was. Who Istr6 the advisers of the Crown when a
national debt of 800,000,0001. had been incurred, which
debt Sir Robert Peel had, by the Bill which he passed in
1819, making them pay in gold what was borrowed in
paper, increased in value 40 per cent. The Corn-laws
was the next resort of that statesman, to enable him to
keep up his popularity with the landed interest, and
which had the effect of supporting that interest under
the previous enhancement of the national debt, but
had pressed the people into the earth. He confessed,
in one point of view he was not sorry that the To-
ries had gotten such a large majority, as it had been
a complaint with Sir Robert Peel before, that there
was no use to develope his schemes of ameliora-
tion when there was no chance of them being car-
ried. Now, however, he had the power, and he trusted
that they would soon be favoured with his wonderful
measures, if he had any such to bring forward, as there
was no doubt he must consider 80 a sufficient majority.
But after all he was afraid there was no good in store,
and if he did anything, it would just be by doing in an
underhand, bit by bit way, some of those very measures,
in place of adopting that bold and magnificent manner,
which had been lately proposed by the present Govern-
ment. After referring shortly to several other subjects,
he resumed his seat amidst great applause.
The CHAIRMAN next gave the health of their very dis-
tinguished and respectable guest, Mr. Patrick Maxwell
Stewart, the Liberal representative of the county of lien-

frew.—(linmense applause.)
Mr. P. M. STEWART, on rising, was received with
cheers. As his Hon. Friend Mr. Wallace had said there
perhaps never was a time when the representatives of
the people of this free country had to go forth to such a
struggle as that in which they were now en ;aged ; and,
therefore, he would say, let those who, like him, had
come forward to represent the liberal and unfettered
opinion of this country put on their armour, and draw
their swords, and cast away their scabbards.—(Great
cheering.) He was determined to get those measures
for which he contended, regardless of the men who
might bring them forward.—(Cheers.) But when he
said that, he asked them to recollect the position
in which they were placed ; to recollect what lten-
frewshire had done in this great battle of opinim,
which had just gone past. There never was an election in
which opinion was so- freely brought to bear as this ;
analysis of the poll would show them that men of all
parties had met and offered up their own political dif-
ferences, in order to enforce the maintenance of those
opinions promulgated by her Majesty's Government.—
(Cheering.) And he might ask, would it not £tartle
their opp meats to find on what vantage ground
they stood ? to find a country such as this, extensive in
all its interests, and deeply Involved in the success of
the commerce, manufactures, and the agriculture of the
country, would it not startle them to find that Renfrew-
shire had made the choice it had done of four representa-
tives ? First and foremost Greenock, the fourth town in

point of importance in the United Kingdom, sendiug up
his honourable friend Mr. Wallace, who had ever been
the advocate of free trade.—(Cheers.) Then, coming
next, the neighbouring town of Kilmarnock, penitent
for what she had done—(Great cheering and laughter)—
repentant, he said, of her tormer transgressions, and
returning a man who had not the nautical skill to make
him famous in boxing every point of the political com-
pass—(Cheers and laughter)—chasing from her his
once Liberal friend, Mr. Colquhoun, and placing
in his stead their honest, substantial, business-
like friend, Mr. Johnson.—(Great cheering.)
And then Paisley, the centre of gauze and
manufacture, sends a man well qualified to represent its
manufacturing and trading interests—all parties meeting
_ _ _ _

to run to the poll, and place Mr. llastie at the head of
it. And then last, but not least, was the great county
of Renfrew itself, for want of a better, placing him in
the situation of its representative, when he offered his
services with trembling and fear, and to his astonishment,
now bringing up the rear of their four representatives.—
(Great cheering.) It was not, he was bound to say, the
fault of the electors of Renfrewshire if Liberal principles
were not duly represented and manfully enforced.—(Loud
cheers.) These, he held, were striking features in this
election, and might startle their opponents a little. By
the way, he would ask them to look what Scotland had
done throughout this great struggle. Scotland, though
somewhat diminished in her majority, had yet a number
that stamped her mind to judge and her freedom to act.

—(Loud Cheering.) And she-was now, among all the
nations that formed the component parts of the United
Kingdom, standing proudly forth as the defender of
free and liberal opinions. She had sent, out of her fifty-
three Members, a majority of nine to support those mea-
sures which her Majesty's Ministers had promulgated.
In the counties, which were thirty, they had ten who
represented Liberal principles and an improvement in
the Corn-laws, and twenty who opposed them. In the
towns, which numbered twenty-three altogether, they had
21 who had decided in favour of the Liberal measures.

—(Cheering.) And what was the inference to be drawn
from this fact ?—and whence this boasted majority in
behalf of the wrong cause ? Scotland, where elections
had been free and uncontaminated in her towns, and in
some of her counties, as in Renfrewshire, had stamped
with her own impress of intellect and independence the
principles which she had avowed.—(Cheering.) And
Ireland too ! He should like to see what she would do
in the face of those unprecedented. steps which were taken
to repress her energies. The Hon. Gentleman, after
one or two further observations, proceeded to make
some remarks on the Church question, repeating his for-
mer statements in defence .of the spiritual independence
of the Church, and sat down amidst loud cheering.
Mr. STEELE then proposed the health of Mr. thistle,
M.P. for Paisley ; and also the health of Mr. John-
ston, M. P. for Kilmarnock. Drank with all the

honours.
Mr. LU3ISDEN returned thanks.
The CHAIRMAN gave successively " The Church of
Scotland" and the " Dissenters of Scotland," and each
of the toasts was drank with all the honours.
Mr. WALLACE was next called upon for a toast, and
gave " An early and complete revision to their Commer-
cial Code." The toast was responded to with great
applause.
Mr. STEWART proposed " Prosperity to the trade of
Greenock," which was drank with great applause.
Mr. SCOTT RUSSELL gave " The Memory of James
Watt," which was responded to by the company with the
greatest enthusiasm.
Mr. A. GRAHAM gave " The health of the Chairman,"
which was received with great approbation.
The CHAIRMAN returned thanks.
Several other toasts having been proposed, the party
broke up.

SCOTLAND.
FAST-DAY AMUSEMENTS.
(From the Glasgow Argus.)
Thursday being the day appointed by the General
Asembly as a fast, to be held all over Scotland, in the
principal streets of this city, including Trongate, Argyle-
street, Buchanan-street, Queen-street, nearly all the
shops were shut ; but, in the suburbs and the secondary
streets, matters were entirely,reversed, not one in twenty
being closed. Almost all the public works, too, were
going as usual. The partial shutting up of shops and
warehouses which took place, had the effect of throwing
idle a large number of the citizens, the great majority
of whom, judging by the crowded state of the steam-
boats and railway trains, instead of going to
church, must have betaken themselves to the
country. As we stated in our last would be the case,
the business of the Police Court proceeded as
usual, and the Commissioners of Police, regardless of
the injunctions of the Assembly, sat and transacted their
wonted secular business. The Post Office runners, too,
were employed in the unsanctified labour of delivering
letters and newspapers through the city ; and, had it
not been for the closing of the places of business in the
three principal streets, the ringing of the bells, and the
overburdened state of our railway and boat omnibuses, no
one could have drawn the conclusion that the city was even
nominally engaged in the work of humiliation and fasting.
As to the attendance in church, from all we can learn,it was
sorry enough—many who are regularly in their pews on
Sabbath having seized the opportunity of enjoying a day's
recreation at the sea-side. The steamers on the Clyde
were all filled to overfioWing, some of them so much so,
that, fro:n fear of accident, great numbers of passengers
left them at the nearest ports to which they had access.
Nor were the fears of danger altogether groundless. In
some instances the passengers were thrown into serious
alarm ; and a case of collision, which occurred at Gou
rock, where the two steam-boats, which crossed each
jaunt-
in;;
wardscu customers.
enros.f
other, were literally packed, had well nigh been attended

FAST-DAY REcREATi,
Thursday rt
hsdea,):,
sheevdedniinnggs,
Paisley road, the nei man was walking on the
Toll," he was attacksd by two fellows in holiday attire
(seemingly persons let loose by the Assembly's Fast),
and abused in the most cowardly and unprovoked man-
ner. He was struck, knocked down, and kicked, without
having said one word to call forth such
treatment, and is wholly. unable to accounte for
xtraordinary
sault ; the fellows were intoxicated ; and, in all
pthe as-
bility, but for the holiday which had been given t trioba-
em,
would have been very differently employed.
AIRDRIE.—The appearance of Airdrie this day de-
serves to be noticed. Not one-third of the shopswereshut, and even some of those that were shut were doing
business within. Coaches and carts were going as usual
masons, and wrights, and weavers were at their work ;
colliers and miners were seen returning from their employ-
ment ; men were breaking stones on the highway ; Airdrie
mill went on in its ordinary way. We have not heard
particularly how the quoad sacra churches (the only
churches where there was a public service) were at-
tended ; but, judging from the numbers that appeared
to be going and returning from church, there must have
been merely a handful in those places where they met to
mourn over the difficulties of the Church. We over-
heard a country woman, passing through the town, say-
ing
to another, "Weel, this is the most comical fast-day
that ever I saw." Since the above was written, we have
heard that there were twenty-four persons in one of the
churches.

(From the Aberdeen Herald.)
THE NON•INTRUSION FAST.—We have received a
number of communications, from all parts of the coun-
try, on the subject of the Asseinbly's Fast, on Thin'sdlY
—the sum and substance of which are, that it has proved
a complete failure. This was more particularly the case
at Old Me'drum, where :he author of "Associatio Jost
