bridge over the river Trent, and extend to Contract No. 1, at Bot-
tesford ; and the other will commence at Grantham, and extend to
the Junction of the Sleaford Branch, making a total distance from
Colwiek, near Nottingham, *1 twenty-three miles, including the first

existence, in every kind of Gin that has hitherto appeared in the
market, of properties alike InJuriotts to the health, and more or less
offensive to the taste, will hear with satisfaction the announcement
by Messrs. BETTS of a most valuable discovery in the mode of ma-
nufacturing this article, whereby in exquisite delicacy of flavour, in
entire freedom from impurities, and in every other quality attractive
to the connoisseur or general consumer, it is brought to a state of per-
fection, such as they confidently assert it never can attain under the
superintendence of any other manufacturers i■ the world. This dis-
covery being the subject •f a grant of Letters Patent, Messrs. BETTS
and CO. intend to exercise their invention with a view to afford such
as feel disposed to take advantage of the offer an opportunity of pur-

QENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE.
The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty
years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to be the only
article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or
grey hair, whiskers, moustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black,
without trouble (by simply combing it through the hair), and pro-
duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change ; and it
can be incontestibly proved, that while many dyes tend to destroy
the hair by their pernicious properties and dangerous process of ap-
plication, that this article promotes the growth of hair, nourishing
the roots till the latest period of life. Price 3s. 6d., 61., and 104

FOR BEAUTIFYING THE SKIN.
GODFREY'S EXTRACT OF ELDER
FLOWERS is strongly recommended for softening, im-
proving, beautifying, and preserving the skin, and in giving it a
blooming and charming appearance, being at once a most fragrant
perfume and delightful cosmetic. It will completely remove tan,
sunburn, redness. acc., and by its balsamic and healing qualities,
render the skin soft, pliable, and free from dryness, scarf, &c. ;
clear it from every humour, pimple, or eruption, and, by continuing
its use only a short time, the akin will become and eontinue soft and
smooth, and the complexion ;erfectly clear and beautiful. Sold in
bottles, price 2s. 9d., with directions for using it, by all medicine
vendors and perfumers.

VALUABLE FAMILY MEDICINE.
HUNT'S APERIENT FAMILY PILLS;
a most excellent Medicine far Bilious Complaints, Disorders
of the Stomach and Bowel 9, Habitual Costiveness, Indigestion,
Heartburn, Pains and Giddiness of the Head, Influenza, Worms,
Spasms, Nervous and Dropsical Complaints.
For upwards of FORTY-FIVE YEARS have these Pills obtained
the unqualified approbation of the public in general, among whoa
may be incladed families of distinction and medicelmen. Their com-
position is so truly excellent, and their beneficial effects have been so
widely experienced, that the proprietors feel the greatest coaidence
in recommending them as one of the MILDEST and MOST EFFI-
CIENT APERIENT FAMILY MEDICINES ever offered to the
public. These Pills require no confinement nor alteration of diet,
and are adapted to every variety of age and constitution. They sel-
dom operate until eight or ten hours after taken, and then gently.
They restore the tens of the stomach, strengthen the digestive organs,
cleanse the bowels of all impurities, and promote the due secretion of
the liver and of the kidneys, and by iivigorating the system gene-
rally, become an invaluable restorative of health to both sexes.
OFFICERS of the ARMY and NAVY will find these Pills an in-
valuable appendage to their medicine cheats, as they retain their me-
dicinal virtues in all climates.
Ladies even of the most delicate constitutions will find these Pills
particularly beneficial, both before and after their eonfinement ; nor
clan they be too highly recommended for the general use of schools.
They are also an excellent preparatory in the use of medicinal waters,
sea-bathing, &c.
Prepared and sold by Messrs. Hunt (the original Proprietors), 65,
Great Pulteney-street, Bath ; and sold, wholesale and retail, by
Messrs. Barclay and Son, 95, Farringdon-street ; Butler, 4, Cheap-
side ; Sutton, 10, Bow Church-yard ; Edwards, 67, St. Paul's ; New-
bury, 45, St. Paul's ; Sanger, 150, Oxford-street, London ; and by all
respectable medicine vendors in the metropolis aid provincial towns.
Be careful to see that the names and address of the Proprietors are
engraved on the medicine stamp around each box, as such alone are
genuine. Price Is, I%d. per box.

A E.
MOne half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Dilideace, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself alder the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret us-
comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to doroostie happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form mitten
in the compact ; it alone dignities the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
these surmises concern yea, procure Dr. CULTERWRLUS little
MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pab. in 2 vols., Is.
each (by post, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
by misinterpretation, of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, but
for the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, whisk alone or
together, are a disgrace to the ago. Furthermore, two other
little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
Aveld," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the anther's
life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he
would be done unto—to live atter nature's laws—and to keep always
on the "sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of

THE MONUMENTS SOLILOQUY.
On Fish-street-hill I stand, and gaze around
On London's City, with its scenes impelling,
And while I listen to each busy sound,
I really cannot help soliloquising.
Here have I rises, since the conflagration
Which spread its flames in Sixteen-slaty-six,
Aid many are the scenes for observation,
On which at dyers times I've had to flz:
I've seen the establishments of trade arising,
And launching speculations great and small,
And now I witness MOSES' mart surprising,
The undisputed rival of them all.
In City much arrests attention,
But, by Sir Christopher, I do avow,
That Messrs. MOSES claim the greatest mention,
For ns'er has London seen their Ike till now.
I've noticed MOSES' trade in all its channels,
I've seen their garments elegantly smart,
And 'tis my firm belief that London's annals
Contain no record of so great a mart.
On Fish-street-hill I stand and gaze around
On all that Londou's trading scene discloses,
But not a single object have I found
More wondrous than the princely House of MOSES.

EMIGRATION FROM LIVERPOOL.—The amount of
emigration from Great Britain and Ireland has
this year far surpassed that of any previous one, as will
be seen from the following returns of emigration from
this port alone:—To the United States, 77,403; Canada,
27,666; New Brunswick, 1,479; Nova Scotia, 171;
Prince Edward's Island, 444; other places, 311;—total,
107,474. This is the return made up to yesterday. Of
this vast number of emigrants, two-thirds wore Irish,
and of the remaining one-third two-fifths were Scotch
and English, and one-fifth German, of whom a larger
number than formerly left this port during the past
season. It is worthy of remark that in the emigration-
office here there is but a staff of five or six men to in-
spect all this mass of emigrants previous to their de-
parture, and also to performthe onerous duty of
surveying all the:ships. The insufficiency of this staff,
and also of the laws by which the emigration from this
country is at present governed, have been but too pain-
fully demonstrated in the fatal contagion which has
raged on board most of those ships during the passage,
and also in the fearful malady which they have car-
ried to our North American colonies.—Liverpool

SOUTH ESSEX ELECTION.

CELEBRATION OF THE RETURN OF SIR
E. N. BUXTON, BART.
Romroun, WEDNESDAY.—Last evening one of the
most magnificent demonstrations in favour of Liberal
principles ever witnessed in the county of Essex took
place in this town, which from an early period of the
day presented a most animated appearance in conse-
quence of the intense interest displayed by the Liberal
electors of this division of Essex. This interest was
increased by the fact that it had become generally
known that some measures would be adopted for re-
turning another Liberal Member, in conjunction with
Sir Edward North Buxton, whenever another elec-
tion should take place.
The dinner yesterday was attended by a large
number of freeholders from the principal towns in the
southern division of the county.
Mr. B. W. Rawlins, presided, and was supported
by Mr. Owen Gray, Mr. Ashdown, Mr. C. Buxton,
Messrs. Collier, Higgs, Macarthy, Ray, Curtis, Wode-
house, Havers, Bartlett, Towson, Woodfine, C. Raw-
lins, Last, Hobbs, Brittain, Rankin, &c. The dinner
was served in excellent style, and consisted of all
seasonable delicacies. Sir E. N. Buxton presented a
remarkably fine buck.
he chair was taken at six o'clock, and after the
dinner the toasts of the Queen and Prince Albert were
given from the chair, and were received with the usual
loyal demonstrations.
Mr. B. W. Rewniss (the chairman) gave " Lord
John Russell and her Majesty's Ministers," and
said that, by returning Sir Edward Buxton, they
had already declared their approbation of the princi-
ples and measures of that noblemanand his colleagues.
He felt certain that they all agreed with him in con-
sidering that in the difficult position in which this
country was placed with respect to the other nations
of Europe, they might depend upon her Majesty's
Ministers, feeling assured that they would not suffer
the British name to be tarnished.—(Loud cheers.)
The toast having been duly honoured,
The CHAIRMAN said the next toast he had the
honour of proposing was the health of a gentleman
whose triumphant return for that division of the
county they had met to celebrate.—(Loud cheers.)
That triumph, he would confidently assert, was
without parallel in electioneering annals. He had to
congratulate them and the country upon the suc-
cessful result of a contest of no ordinary importance.
They were not met there either to mislead their
friends or insult their foes, and he would not hesitate
to declare his conviction that the meeting which
recently took place at Colchester was held for the
express purpose of misleading the friends of the Tory
Theirpart and

but

fed poultry as the food of the English agricultural
labourer, and the small black loaf,
cabbage as being the only food of foreigners Of the
same class. Even in Essex, unfortunately, the first
part would not be believed, and even in Essex the
latter part, he hoped, would not obtain credence. It
may, however, be said that there was some truth in
that device, he would therefore not dwell longer on
that point, but there could be no doubt as to the
speeches that were made on that occasion. They
called the Colchester gathering the celebration of a
triumph, a Conservative triumph. Where was their
triumph at Maldon ? Where was their triumph at
Colchester? Had they triumphed at Harwich ? And
he need not say how they triumphed in that, the
southern division of the county. No, they had sus-
tained severe losses, and felt sure they would never
recover them.--(Cheers.) Let them contrast that
meeting at Colchester with the previous meeting to
celebrate the return of the Conservative ten at Chelms-
ford. The triumph of which they boasted at Col-
chester was the loss of four of that ten. At that
meeting Sir John Tyrrell, from whom, from his posi-
tion, one might expect some degree of decorum,
indulged in some jocular remarks upon Buxton's
entire, Hardcastle's small beer and half and half
representation, whilst at the same time he seemed
carefully to avoid political topics. Sir John Tyrrell
well knew that his party were in a very critical
position between Lord John Russell's party on one
side, and Sir Robert Peel and his supporters on the
other. He therefore threw out a bait by saying Lord
John Russell might, if he liked, be as good a Con-
servative as any other man. They knew well enough
what that meant. Sir John Tyrrell, in effect, said,
grant us some few things, and my party will support
you. They were, however, quite certain that Lord
John Russell would consider such an overture an
insult.—(Cheers.) If Lord John sought for support
it would be from Sir Robert Peel, so that by associ-
ating with that great man he might be better able to
meet the exigencies of the times.—(Loud cheers.) Sir
Robert Peel, whatever may be said to the contrary,
has been a consistent man, shaping his course to the
circumstances of the day. It was ridiculous to charge
Sir Robert Peel with inconsistency, unless they were
content to accept Mr.:Smijth's views of consistency,
who would have the principles which prevailed in
Queen Elizabeth's time in operation at present.
At that Colchester meeting, Major Beresford declared
that he never, under any circumstances, would sup-
port Sir R. Peel, but that he pinned his colours to the
standard of Lord Stanley, who, he said, had given up
power and place for principle. Did it not suggest itself
to such as made use of that argument that it told as
much for Sir Robert Peel as for Lord Stanley ; for
had not Sir Robert Peel given up power and place
for the principles he advocated ? Had be not aban-
doned public position and private friendship for the
cause of his country ?—(Loud cheers.) With respect
to what more immediately concerned them—the
recent contest for their division of the county—ac-
cording to all accounts, Mr. Smijth came forward
unsolicited as a candidate for their suffrages, upon
the strength of his being descended from an old and
and honourable family in that county, and his having
hoisted a blue flag, which he considered was sufficient
to render his success certain.—(Laughter.) Sir
Edward Buxton was then solicited to come forward
on liberal and independent principles. He, after
some hesitation, consented to be put in nomination,
thereby giving the electors an opportunity of res-
cuing the southern division of Essex from Tory
thraldom, and of that opportunity they had nobly
availed themselves.—(Loud cheers.) These two can-
didates being both untried men, they had only their
speeches and private characters to judge by. Mr.
Smijth had only told them that if returned he would
do all he could to re-enact those laws which he felt
satisfied were abolished for ever. He, of course, al-
luded to the corn-laws. He further said that he
would on all occasions oppose Lord John Russell and
Sir Robert Peel, the latter of whom he denied to be
either consistent or talented. Now Sir Edward Bux-
ton presented himself with a character descended
from his father, whose name was familiar with every
man who knew anything of public affairs.—(Hear,
hear.) Every one knew the name of Buxton, the
noble and eloquent advocate for the abolition of sla-
very.—(Cheers.) There was from the first but little
doubt which would be selected. They had selected
a gentleman who not only would represent his con-
stituents, but also those who had no votes. In Sir
Edward Buxton they had a representative in the
House determined to support her Majesty's Minis-
ters, and who he had no doubt would be found at his
post whenever questions of importance

The toast was drunk with tumultuous applause.
Mr. CHARLES BUXTON rose to acknowledge the
compliment, and was most warmly greeted. He
said, on behalf of his brother, he tendered them his
thanks for the manner they had received the mention
of his name. It would hardly become him to con-
gratulate them upon letting his brother into Parlia-

Several other toasts were drunk, amongst which
were " Civil: and Religious Liberty," " The 1,729
Electors who'voted for Sir E. N. Buxton," " The
Chairman," "Mr. Charles Buxton," &c.
It was resolved, that at the next vacancy for the
county, whenever that might occur, Mr. Charles
Buxton or Mr. Charles Gurney (son of Mr. Samuel
Gurney, the banker) should be put in nomination with
Sir E. N. Buxton.

The convivialities were kept up until day began to
dawn.

NATIONAL ALLIANCE FOR PRO-
MOTING THE REAL REPRESENTATION OF
THE PEOPLE.

Last night a public meeting of the association
known by the above title was held at the Eastern
Institution, Commercial-road, which was crowded by
a large assembly chiefly composed of the inhabitants
of the Tower Hamlets, amongst whom there was a
considerable number of ladies.

It was announced previously that Mr. G. Thomp-
son, M.P. for the Tower Hamlets, would take the
chair at half-past seven o'clock ; but, as the Hon.
Gentleman did not appear at the time specified, it
was agreed to postpone the commencement of the
proceedings till eight o'clock. At that hour Mr.
Thompson had not come forward, and Mr. Ebenezer
Clark, having been called to the chair, proceeded to
explain the object of the meeting.
Soon after Mr. Thompson entered, amid loud
cheering, and explained that he had :just come from
Yorkshire to redeem the pledge he had given to
preside on the occasion, and that he should have been
present at the hour appointed but for an untoward
detention on the railway between Rugby and London,
which detention was not rendered a whit more
pleasant by its having taken place in the very centre
of the longest tunnel on the line.
The chair was then vacated by Mr. Clark, in favour
of Mr. Thompson, and the business proceeded.
Mr. DicK, the secretary of the Alliance, reported
that since the late general election he had received
two or three valuable contributions to the funds.
One of these was a subscription of 51. from Mr. John
Norton, of Lincoln ; another was a sum of 101. from
the Earl of :Radnor—(Great cheering)—and the
third was a donation of 501. from one who styled
himself " A friend to the cause."—(Cheers.)
Dr. Errs then moved the following resolution :
" That every House of Commons hitherto elected
under the provisions of the Reform Bill has contained
a majority of Members having no claim to the confi-
dence of the earnest friends of civil and religious
liberty ; and therefore this meeting is of opinion that
the time has arrived for creating a great national
movement for the purpose of extending to the whole
people their political rights."
He ridiculed the idea which many people attempted
to impress upon them, that they possessed anything
like real civil and religious liberty in this country.
What was the fact as regarded the franchise? There
were 6,000,000 male adults in the country, and yet
not more than 1,000,000 of these possessed the right
to vote for representatives in Parliament. In these
circumstances it was impossible that society could
ever be safe • and he therefore rejoiced in the present
movement for extending the representation of the
people. It was a movement begun and promoted by
men who could have nothing to gain by disturbance.
They were men who during the last agitation
for the same object kept aloof, because they saw the
cause injured by the manner in which that agitation
was promoted.—(Hear, hear.) He was persuaded
that they were at the commencement of a mighty
movement,—that if ordinary discretion and prudence
were exercised they would as effectually rouse the na-
tional mind as the Anti-Corn-law League had done
in its successful efforts for the abolition of the corn-
laws.---(Cheers.) He then congratulated the electors
of the Tower Hamlets in their selection of such a man
as Mr. Thompson to be their representative, and ex-
pressed his confident belief that that gentleman would
succeed in securing for himself a respectful and atten-
tive hearing in the new House of Commons, just as
Mr. Cobden had done, notwithstanding all the efforts
made to crush him.—(Cheers.)

Mr. J. BROOKS seconded the resolution. He ob-
served that the National Alliance was intended to
embrace men of every class, sect, and creed,—their
object was to unite all the friends of civil and reli-
gious liberty in,one immense body; to teach. them
principles of self-lialiance,lnd to enable them to carry
out their views in a spirit of firm but peaceful deter-
mination, very different from that ebullition of phy-
sical-force feeling which broke out during the last
agitation for the extension of the suffrage.—(Hear,
hear.) They were anxious to avoid even the appear-
ance of physical force, and to establish their resistance
to oppression and their demand for equal rights on a
higher and more rational principle.—(Cheers.)
The resolution was then unanimously adopted.
Mr. FRASER (a working man) moved the following
resolution :

" That the National Alliance, formed for promoting
the union of all Reformers, and having for its object
the real representation of the people in Parliament, is
worthy of the support of all classes, because it seeks
to extend the suffrage to every man of full age ; to
protect his vote by ballot ; to abolish property quali-
fications; to establish electoral districts ; 'to provide
for the just remuneration of Members of Parliament,
and to have Parliament elected for a short and fixed
duration."

He gave his support to the National Alliance because
he thought it-was likely to bring together the scat-
tered elements of democracy, which, powerless in a
state of isolation, were, when combined, organized,
and directed, irresistible as the mountain torrent that
swept every obstacle before it. He supported the
Alliance, too, because it stcod virtually upon the
principles of the Charter, and upon the bill of rights
of the Complete Suffrage Association.—(Cheers.)
As a Chartist he gave the gentlemen who had formed
this alliance the right hand of fellowship, and hoped
that however such men as Macaulay might babble
about the extension of the suffrage, and talk of
" going back to a state of barbarism," the union of
all the true friends of the people would effectually
secure to every man the just right which he possessed
by nature of exercising a voice in the formation of
the laws he was called on to obey.—(Cheers.)
Colonel THOMPSON, M.P., seconded the resolution,
and observed that there could be neither peace nor
concord in a country where a large proportion of the
people were deprived of their just rights, and so long
as they felt the gross injustice of the deprivation under
which they laboured.—(Cheers.) He rejoiced to
know that at the late election there were exhibited
many symptoms of great progress having been made •
in the cause of popular rights. The ktone of their
adversaries had been greatly moderated. One set of
them, the Tories, had gone off the field altogether,
and left it to a gentle lamb-like thing called " Con-
servative," the members of which had raised their
gentle voices in a very subdued strain against the
friends of an extended suffrage.—(Laughter.) And
if they looked at the friends of the Liberal cause—
the moderate-going friends of popular rights, they
found that in many places their conduct had under-
gone a very promising change.—(Hear, hear.) He
came from a place (Bradford) that had given the
most marked proof of progress in this direction.—
(Cheers.) There was no place in England where
extension of the
,suffrage walked in such good
clothes as it did there. (Cheers and laughter.)
And why ? Because those who were formerly spat at
for having holes in their jackets, had evinced in their
whole conduct a prudence, a judgment, and a pro-
priety that gave the lie to the abuse with which they
had been assailed.—(Cheers.) There was not a
power in this country that could prevent the working
classes, when they conducted themselves with pro-
priety and
in an orderly spirit, from taking their
right position in society. If they themselves chose
they need not longer remain as a slave class, to use
an expression uttered by a great man whose voice
they would never listen to again. And why should
the working men remain as they were ? Was not
everything changing ? Were not new modes of me-
chanism introduced into every species of art and ma-
nufacture ? and was the political position of the
working classes alone to stand unchanged? —(Cheers.)

which had that day taken place, and x
be-
lief that it was an earnest of many similar unions all
over the country.
The resolution was then unanimously agreed to.
Mr. E. MIALL, of the Nonconformist, moved the
expressed his
third resolution, which was as follows :
" That this meeting pledges itself to the earnest
and active support of the movement, and that indivi-
dually they will place themselves in connexion with
it, and use their utmost endeavours, both pecuniary
and otherwise, to promote its success."
He stated that the attachment which he bad formed
to the People's Charter was excited totally and exclu-
sively by his study of Christianity, and that when he
saw large masses of his fellow-countrymen deprived
of the rights of citizenship, and treated its slaves, he

felt himself bound solemnly to avow his convictions
before his fellow-religionists. He contended that
there had never been a real representation of the
people of England, and never would be till the prin-
ciples of the Alliance were carried out. The speaker
went on at some length to advocate these views, and
concluded 19,v moving the resolution.
Mr. H. VINCENT seconded the resolution.. He con-
tended that England owed everything to progress
socially, politically, mentally, and religiously. En, y
g-
land was the child of progress, and could .an one
believe that now it was to be for ever stemmed,
and the great bulk of her population left without
the enjoyment of their rights ? He then stated what
ought to be the line of policy pursued by the Na-
tional Alliance. Their great object should be to con-
vert the middle and propertied classes to their views ;
but they must not merely content themselves with
popular sympathies, they must also have generous
contributions of money. He asked why the millions
of England did not place at the disposal of their best
friends a fund large enough to enable them to fight
the battle of freedom with their opponents ? They
were richer than their opponents ; and in the accu-
mulated savings of the multitude there was the secret
of a stupendous power never yet wielded on the side
of freedom.—(Cheers.) It was proposed also to do
their best to extend the franchise under the present
system. At a meeting at Norwich, where he was
present on the previous evening, a plan was pro-
pounded by which the working classes might
soon possess themselves of the county constituencies.
It was based on the movement of the Anti-Corn-
law League, with this distinction, that it was pro-
posed to create several separate organizations for
the purchase of freehold votes in the counties
of England. The society contemplated the exist-
ence of different parties-Ist, Those who chose to
pay 1/. a month ; 2d, Those who paid 10s. a mouth ;
3d, Those who paid ss. a month; and 4th, Those who
chose at once to pay for freeholds, or to do so by
certain stated instalments. In Norwich hundreds of
members would join this society. It was intended to
concentrate its efforts for a time in one or two coun-
ties, and as soon as a sufficient number of voters were
created then to extend its operation. In this way it
was probable that in Norwich and the neighbouring
districts 50 voters would be created a month.—
(Hear.) Now, he wanted the National Alliance to '
further institutions like this, so that while they were
instructing the people they should at the same time
be doing something practically to increase their power.
—(Cheers.) Mr. Vincent then pointed out the im-
portance of contesting every borough that became
vacant, and concluded by insisting upon the neces-
sity of giving the people political power, were it only
to oppose the centralizing spirit of the Government.
The resolution was then agreed to, and it was an-
nounced that the only qualification for the Alliance
was the payment of is. and upwards.
Thanks were then voted to Mr. Thompson for his
conduct in the chair, and that gentleman having
shortly acknowledged the honour, the meeting sepa-
rated a little before eleven o'clock.
