THE AN TI-COMNI-LAWLEAGUE.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUwN free-
men
im,—The Anti-Corn-law League have acted ver'y wie 1y
in turning their attention from the old boroughs,s
hose
will always sell themselves to the highest bidders, to the
counties, which can be rescued from the aristocracy with
ease. Whilst the free traders are serving their country
without even expense to themselves—for their investments
will yield good interest—they are improving the dwellings of
the poor, who will find a great difference in having free
traders for landlords instead of landholders. •

I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
A MEMBER OF TIIE LEAGUE.

We understand that circulars have been issued re-
questing the early attendance of the ministerial Members on
the meeting of Parliament.
The Earl of Carlisle continues much in the same
state, Viscount Morpeth and Lady Mary Howard are the
only members of the family at present staying with the
Noble Earl. The Hon. Captain and Mrs. Edward Howard
are at present on a visit to the Hon. Mr. and Mrs. George
Ponsonby, at Woolbeding, Sussex. The Hon. Charles 1).
Howard, M.P., is expected to return to town in a few days
from a visit to Mr. Baron Parke, in Bedfordshire.

DANGEROUS AMUSEMENT.—Yesterday afternoon,
about three o'clock, some mischievous boys having fastened
a string to the iron railing of the house about a foot from the
ground in Jermyn-street, St. James's, stood on the opposite
side and drew it tight, for the purpose of tripping foot passen-
gers, by which means a poor woman named Margaret Ni-
chols was thrown to the ground. The woman was completely
stunned by the fall, and bled much from a wound on the fore-
head. She was taken into a surgeon's, when it was ascer-
tained that, with the exception of the wound, she had escaped
serious injury. The authors of the mischief made their escape
though hotly pursued.

The VICE-PRESIDENT rose to propose a toast that he
was sure would be responded to in a manner worthy -of
its merits—" The land we live in."
Mr. SHAND Low trusted that the company would
show their attachment, their love, and sympathy with
their sister island ; for in doing so that evening they
would at least prove that they all esteemed the kindness,
the talent, and the honest bravery that was so charac-
teristic of their brethren of Ireland ; and, remembering
the sentiments of a favourite poet, whose stirring effu-
sions had been quoted, exclaiming,
" Is there a son of generous England here,
Or fervid Erin too, shall join
To pray that in eternal union dear
The rose, the shamrock, and the thistle twine."
They were all types of a race who would the invader
scorn, and in this great metropolis they all lived as
brethren. Ile would propose to them, " Long may the
shamrock be entwined with the rose and the thistle."—
Drunk with all the honours, the piper playing " St.
Patrick's- day."
Mr. MURRAY rose to propose " the Health of the
President," aho had so ably and eloquently acquitted
himself in the discharge of his duties. He had been re-
sident in London for many years, and took great delight
in institutions such as they were that evening met to
countenance. He belonged to those men who came from
the " hill-side," where honesty and singleness of mind
were characteristic of them—where the men of " God's
own aristocracy " were to be met with ; and, therefore,
as a Highlander, he called upon the company to dedi-
cate a bumper to Mr. Hepburn.—Drunk with the High-
land honours.
Mr. llnenunN returned thanks.

Mr. BOUCHER was called upon to propose another
toast, and in doing so he dwelt upon the services of his
countrymen in both the civil and military departments,
and referring to the glorious deeds of the Highland
regiments whenever they were railed upon to defend
British honour, he instanced Alexandria, Corunna, and
Toulouse, down to the crowning victory of Waterloo,
as battles in which they were mainly instrumental in not
only checking, but in defeating, the " tried soldiers of
Napoleon." He would announce to them a toast, in
which all, he was sure, would join—" The Laud o'Cakes."
—Drunk with Highland honours, and every demonstra-
tion of enthusiasm.

Mr. Sinclair followed this national toast by singing
"Auld lang sync," the company joining in chorus.
Professor Kum. rose to propose prosperity to two
kindred institutions, and dwelt upon their use and assist-
ance to natives of Scotland—" The Royal Highland
School Society, and the Scottish Hospital."
Mr. THOMPSON, as Honorary Secretary, returned
thanks for the former institution, to which he more im-
mediately belonged, as did Major Adair for the latter.
Mr. WYLIE reminded the company that there was
another institution worthy of their consideration, and
one, he was sure, all of them were acquainted with. Its
object was that of educating boys and girls, the sons and
daughters of soldiers, sailors, and poor men, natives of
Scotland —" The Caledonian Asylum."
Captain FORBES returned thanks on behalf of the
governors and frier ds of that benevolent institution.
He was thankful for their kind notice of this useful and
benevolent society, and he was proud to say that its
merits were worthy of their extensive patronage.
The PRESIDENT gave " Prosperity to the Highland
Society."
GEORGE BAIN, Esq., returned thanks. Before sitting
down he proposed "Success and prosperity to the Cale-
donian Society of London."—(Cheers and Highland

DEATH OF DR. D OYLEY, RECTOR OF LAMBETH.—
We regret to announce the decease of the above-named and
highly respected Churchman, who expired on Tuesday even-
ing, at his country residence at Sunbridge. Dr. D'Oyley has
been rector of St. Mary's, Lambeth, for many years and we
need scarcely remindour readers that it is to him, in con-
junction with the Right Rev. Dr. Mant, the present Bishop
of Down and Connor, that we are indebted for an elaborate
commentary on the Holy Bible, which has become a text-
book in our Universities, and has been generally recognised
as a standard episcopal examination. The Rev. Divine bad
attained a venerable age. NVe believe the proximate cause
of death was an accident, which Dr. D'Oyley had the misfor-
tune to meet with some months since. The extensive parish
of Lambeth will henceforth be divided into districts, in ac-
cordance with the provisions of Sir Robert Peel's Act.—Post.
SERVING NOTICE FOR TIIE MlLlTlA.—Yesterday
morning the parochial authorities of St. Marylebone, St.
Pancras, and St. George's, Hanover-square, commenced
serving notices, to be filled up at the inhabitants' houses, for
the intended ballotting for the militia.
ROBBERY BY A RAILWAY SURVEYOR.—lnforma-
tion was yesterday forwarded to the Metropolitan and City
police-stations, that a surveyor named Richard Davis,,. who
N
had lately been engaged on the Severn and Avon alley
Railway, from Rugby to Gloucester, had stolen a valuable
fowling-piece, the property of Mrs. Jeffs, wine and spirit
dealer, High-street, Tewkesbury.
THE FRENCH EMBASSY.—We understand that his
Excellency the French Ambassador, Count de St. Aulaire,
has been detained in Paris considerably longer than was
originally expected, nis Excellency's detention arising from
family matters, or the Noble Count and the Marquis St.
Aulaire would have returned to this country at least a month
back. The Ambassador, accompanied by the Countess and
the Marquis St. Aulaire, is now expected at Manchester
Holum by the 16th WE at lateet,

bonours.) -
The PRESIDENT then, in an impressive and highly
eloquent speech, gave the " Memory of Burns." In con-
cluding his address, the President said that, instead of
drinking to his memory in silence, be proposed that it
should be done with acclamation.—(Applause.)
A Highland Reel was then danced by Captain Forbes,
George Bain, Esq., James Davidson, and Mr. Bruce, to
a strathspey played by Mr. Angus Mackay.
After which, by an unanimous call from the company,
the Sword Dance, or " Gillie Callum," was skilfully per-
formed by Mr. Davidson, to the delight of all present.
We cannot forbear expressing an opinion of admiration
at the very splendid and unique Highland garb in
which this gentleman appeared. For a combination of
taste with splendour—(the splendour subservient to
taste)—we never saw it excelled.

Still from a mere fragment, glorious though it be, no
conception can be formed of the copiousness, fire-like
emphasis, splendour, elaboration, and tumultuous en-
thusiasm, with which these portraits are conceived and
developed. Loving Shelley for his dreamy mysticism,
and Carlyle for his Germanic forcefulness, and
Brougham for his vast capacities, and Coleridge for his
density and solid range of metaphysics ; paying heart.
homage to Wordsworth in the forest walks, and Wil-
son by the lonely tarn, and Elliot with his golden
music-reeds, and Ilazlitt with his sad pale
face; breaking out alternately in paragraphs of
stormy eulogy and words of solemn mourning
f-LGilfillan throws a lustre round him as he
'writes—the lustre of high sentiments expressed
in language of the loftiest character. To every wor-
shipper of recent or living genius—to every one who
can appreciate the sterling sense of Foster, or revel
in the wild and wizard day-dreams of De Quincey—
this volume will afford a treat beyond expression. It
is a work to be feasted over by the fire-side, or on a
flower-bank in the sunshine. As a companion, to and
a commentary upon, our modern heroes of English
literature, " Gilfillan's Gallery of Literary Portraits"
'will have a corner on the bookshelves of the future.
It is the honest and splendid ebullition of its author's
heart.

Dr. BUCKLAND said that good peas were very nice.
Mr. BRIGHT agreed, and said that so were pine-
apples. But how were the poor to get them ?
Dr. BUCKLAND said that such an objection was un-
worthy a candid disputant. As for decomposed potatoes,
why should decomposed potatoes be more objectionable
than decomposed partridges ?
The CHAIRMAN objected to the introduction of the
game question.
Mr. COBDEN said there could be no doubt in any
reasonable mind that the repeal of the corn-laws would
make bread much cheaper.
Mr. MILES said that no rational being could hesitate
in believing that the abolition of the duties would double
the price of bread.
The Duke of CAMBRIDGE said that things were not
so bad as had been represented. He had that day dined
with the Lord Mayor, and could assure the meeting that
he had found plenty of bread and very good potatoes.
The newspapers exaggerated everything.
Lord MORPETH was for doing everything reasonably.
He would instance the corn in bond.

Mr. BRIGHT would have no corn in bond—it should be
entirely free.
The Duke of RICHMOND did not doubt the benevolent
intentions of the Anti-Corn-law League.
Mr. COBDEN was much obliged, but the League
wanted bread and not butter.

Colonel SurritenP said he would be hanged if he coin-
cided with the ,Duke. All the manufacturers wanted
was to make corn cheap, that they might have an excuse
for paying low wages. Bother the League.
Mr. R. R. R. MOORE said that there would soon be a
general election, and then Government must choose be-
tween giving up the corn and receiving the sack.:
The Duke of RICHMOND said that so far from giving
up the corn, he hoped the Government would not even
lend the League an ear.
Resolutions embodying the spirit of the above speeches
having been put and carried, the agriculturists rushed off
0.P., and the free-traders P.S. The Chairman was about
to propose a vote of thanks to himself, when he suddenly
disappeared through a trap. Then the meeting went
away.

THE JANUS STEAM-SHIP,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.
Sin,—The frequent articles inserted in your universally
circulated paper relative to the Janus, indicate that the suc-
cess or failure of the engines, boilers, and lines of construc-
tion are subjects of public interest.
Being thus confirmed in my opinion, I enclose to you
the last report made on the original revolving engine
erected by the late Admiralty in Portsmouth Dockyard, the
performance of which engine ,gave to the present Board
the confidence they have manifested in promoting the at-
tainment of an object highly interesting to the naval service.
Those only who attempt to introduce an important no-
velty can estimate the effects of jealousy and prejudice. I
confide, however, in your liberality to aid in their removal,
and beg that you will inquire whether any reciprocating en-
gine has ever performed duty equivalent to thirteen conse-
cutive double voyages from England to America (as the
Portsmouth engine has done), almost without repair?
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
Portsmouth, Jan. 8. DUNDONALD.

REPORT ON UTE EARL OF DUNDONALD'S ROTATORY ENGINE

The greatest hilarity prevailed throughout the even-
ing. and the Caledonian Society were unremitting in
their attentions to their friends and visitors, who will all
remember with lively pleasure the evening of their
" Festival." We cannot finish our account of this en-
tertainment without mentioning the delight felt by the
company with the charming singing of Miss Birch,
whose talents and graceful manners are well known to
all. Her songs drew forth loud applause, and her will-
ing acquiescence to an encore showed her anxiety to
please. She was relieved by Miss Lucombe, who also
sang several favourite ballads with considerable taste.
Mr. Sinclair was in excellent voice, and we only regrot
that he does not favour his admirers more frequently.
Mr. Guiness, with his ( xcellent band, occupied the
orchestra, and played several appropriate airs during the
evening. They were occasionally relieved by her
Majesty's piper's thrilling gatherings and marches from
the national instrument.

ERECTED IN HER MAJESTY'S DOCKYARD AT PORTSMOUTH.

On the 22d of December, 1845, two years and nine months
of constant performance of the rotatory engine expires,
during all which time it has been working in the most effec-
tual and satisfactory manner, no derangement of consequence
having ever taken place,
It is presumed that these two years and nine months of
constant and laborious operation (requiring no more than
slight attention by the workmen) have gone far to establish
that quality which, until now, had not been sufficiently de-
veloped—namely, durability, and consequent continuity of
operation.
The principal repair the engine has required was taken in
hand about nine months ago. This was so trifling, that
six men could have accomplished it in one day, but having
been much pressed with work at the time, one man only
could be spared, which consequently protracted its comple-
tion for one week.
Thus after four years and nine months constant working

Should additional evidence be sought to establish further
claims as a rival in steam mechanism, it is to be found in the
simple fact, that this first essay on the Earl of Dundonald's
principle, although at first altered and mutilated to bring it
to perfection, is nevertheless at the present time perfectly free

had such pretty pickings, has been handed to us for publica-
tion. We print it exactly as it was received, without note or

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE PONTOP AND SOUTH
SHIELDS RAILWAY. SOUTH SHIELDS, THURSDAY.—Ani
accident had just occurred here by the falling of an m-
mense heap of ballast, whereby two men employed in re-
pairing the Pontop and South Shields Railway have been
killed ; one was severely injured, his thigh bone being broken,
and about a dozen others narrowly escai ed. The men, who
are all railway labourers, were engaged in procuring ballast
from an enormous bill, accumulated during a long series of
years, having been brought from various Parta, but princi-
pally from the Thames, by light colliers in ballast; and, in
order to facilitate their operations, a temporary rail was laid
down in connexion with the Shields branch of the Newcastle
and Darlington Railway, and running along an excavation
close by the side of the hill. On this rail a train of ballast
trucks was placed for the purpose of being filled, which was
done by the men throwing the ballast from the hill side, on
which they stood, into the waggons. The hill sloped very
little, and its height was not less than about forty feet from
where the waggons stood, and consisted of very loose mate-
rials, being dry gravel, with but little clay mixed with it
While the men were so engaged a large portion of the super-
incumbent mass suddenly descended, burying three of the
men, and partially covering everal others. It completely
filled up the space between the bottom of the hill and the
waggons, several of which were covered also. As soon as
those who had escaped recovered from the momentary shock,
they exerted themselves to rescue their comrades. All were
got out alive except two, who were not found for some time,
having been crushed in behind the waggons. Another had
his leg broken, and he is not expected to live. One man was
a long way up the hill-side when it fell, and he was carried
completely over the waggon, and alighted on the ground
without receiving any injury. The accident seems to have
arisen entirely from want of due caution in undermining the
superincumbent mass, and it is fortunate the loss of life was
not greater than it has been.
A LAWYER'S PICKINGS.—We understand that in the
recent arbitration inquiry as to the sale of the Corporation
land in Cheshire, the Solicitor-General's fee was 250 guineas
with the brief, 300 guineas for coming down, and 100 guineas
per day during the continuance of the arbitration,—Liverpool

RETIREMENT OF MR. EVERETT FROM POLITICAL
LIFE.—The Hon. Mr. Everett, the late Minister to this
country from the United States, will shortly quit the
arena of politics for the peaceful paths of learning. The
Corporation of Howard University, near Boston, Mas-
sachusets, a short time previous to the return of Mr.
Everett from England, addressed to him a letter, re-
questing him to be put in nomination for the office of
President of the University in place of the Hon. Josiah
Quincy, resigned, and informing him that, in that case,
he would receive the unanimous vote of the Board for
the appointment, which, on the meeting of the Board of
Overseers, would be laid before them for their confirma-
tion. Mr. Everett has recently given an answer to the
application, in which he has consented to receive the
apeintment.
EARFUL ACCIDENT WITH VlTRlOL.—Yesterday
morning, between eleven and twelve o'clock, a young man
named Samuel Holmes, residing in Church-street, rstadins
ton, was lifting a large bottle of vitriol off a shelf, when the
chair on which he was standing slipped from under him
head, and
he fell to the ground, the bottle breaking upon his and
_
the burning liquid flowing over his face and person. So
dreadful is the injury he has sustained, that no s are en-
tertained cf his recovering the sight of both eyes.

dinners on the eve of the assembling of both Houses of Par-
liament will be confined to those ministerial meetings at the

THE KING OF PRUSSIA AND
THE PROVINCIAL DIETS.
The Berlin State Gazelle gives the following, as the' replies
made by the Government to the demands addressed to 2t by
the Diet of the Province of Prussia :
"1. Participation of the lay members of religious commu-
nities) in the discussions and resolutions on ecclesiastical
affairs. Reply—The Government has already decided that
lairs should be called to form part of the first general synod,
which is to be shortly convoked; but as it has been deter-
mined not to accept any proposition on the changes to be
introduced into the organisation and constitution of the Pro-
' testant Church, except from the ecclesiastial authorities
themselves, "it cannot decide anyilling relative to the future
organization of the provincial synods', before having heard
the prepositions of the general synod. 2. Amelioration of
the revision of the codes and the introduction of the jury.
Reply.—Consideringthe importance of the question, prepa-
ratory studies of great extent are required, and they are not
yet terminated. The Diets are therefore tgeommended to
wait with confidence the result of the delibera: ions of the
competent authorities. 3. Meeting of the States.-General,
and proclamation of a constitution for the whole kbajdom-
Reply.—The Diets, in their address of March 10, 1t;45,
having expressed their confidence in the promise which ws:
made in 1813, relative to the development of their constitu-
tion, we do not see why they make mention of the petitions
addressed to them on this subject. We thank the minority
for having shown the inutility of such a proceeding. 4. Pub-
licity of the discussions in the Diets, within certain limits.
Reply. We refuse to comply with the prayer of this petition.
5. To communicate to the Diets at least six weeks before the
opening of the session the propositions which the Government
wishes to bring forward. Reply.—We shall communicate to
the Diets such propositions as we please, and when we think
it advisable. 6. To reduce the amount of ten years of terri-
torial possession, required as one of the conditions of eligibi-
lity for the representatives of towns in the Diets, and in ge-
neral to increase the circle of eligibility in towns. Reply.—
Pereintory refusal. 7. Reform of the legislation relative to,
the press, and less severity in the censorship. Reply.—The
complaints of the petitioners are anything but well-founded.
The press, in fact, needs an amelioration, but only to pre-
vent in a more efficient manner the transgression of the
limits which arc imposed on it, in the interest of public
order and of the reputation of private individuals. 8.
Emancipation of the Jews. Reply.—The Government is
busied with a general system of legislation for all things re-
lating to the Jews, in a civil as well as a religious point of
view. 9. To replace the duties OR the grinding of corn and
the killing of cattle by a direct tax. Reply.—Not at pre-
sent; but the Government will see if it be possible to lower
by degrees the amount of those imposts, and to prepare a
general modification. 10. The Diet pronounces against pro-
tectivo duties, and demands the free entry of iron into the
province. Reply.—ln the changes which are to be effected
in the tariff, the Government will take into consideration the
interests of the whole kingdom. As to the free entry of iron,
it cannot be granted."

THE FREE-TRADE MO VEMENT

AT NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE.

NEWCASTLE -ON- T Y NE, WEDNESDAY NIGHT. -The
meeting held in this town, on Monday evening, has
produced an effect which it is impossible yet fully to
estimate. The immense and highly respectable multi-
tude that assembled on the occasion completely puzzled
the opponents of the League, who have been in the habit
of asserting that Newcastle felt indifferent to the free-
trade question. That they are unable now 'to ippeat.
Throughout yesterday and to-day little else has been
talked about than the " demonstration," as it is here
called, which appears to have exceeded the anticipations.
of the most sanguine of its promoters. In the account
it was mentioned that many were present who
usually display an utter disregard of politics, and not a
few who belong to the Conservative party. As one of
the former, may be mentioned Chevalier Dillon,
the French Consul at this port, a gentleman enjoying in
a high degree the confidence of the mercantile portion
of the community, and who necessarily avoids all ex-
pression of political opinion. The' presence of gentle-
men of this class, and their evident sympathy with the
cause of commercial freedom, adds to the impression
produced by the admirable address of Mr. Cobden.
This evening a meeting has been held at the Claren-
don Hotel, for the purpose of giving effect to Mr. Cob-
den's recommendations.

Mr. G. Crawshay occupied the chair, and, in opening
the proceedings, suggested that Newcastle should be
made the seat of an auxiliary to the League, having its
separate council, and corresponding with, and directing
the operations of, the surrounding district.
The speaking at the meeting was purely conversa-
tional. Arrangements were made to carry on the quali-
fication movement, and a considerable number of appli-
cations were made by persons desirous of securing votes
for South Northumberland and North Durham.

Subscriptions were afterwards opened for the League
quarter of a million fund. Amongst the sums contri-
buted were—Mr. Crawshay, 1001.; Messrs. Pow and
Falcus, North Shields, 501.; Messrs. J. Lee and Co.,
Newcastle, 501.; Messrs. Bell, 301.; Mr. H. C. Arm-
strong, 25/.; Mr. John Shield, 21/.; Mr. James Shield,
201.; with many smaller sums, the total subscribed on
the spot being upwards of 3101.

SUGAR DUTIES.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Lord Stanhope, and he is a great authority, has
threatened, that should the corn-laws be annihilated;-
and protection be withdrawn from agricultural industry,
ho will be amongst the first to assail all other monopo-
lies. He has declared that he will not stand with his
arms folded and see the farmers and labourers paying a
protection price for the articles they or their families
may require, while the produce of their industry is
obliged to be sold at its real value ; and he is perfectly
right and just in the view he takes of the affair in that
respect.

His Lordship will very soon probably be in a position
to carry his excellent threat into execution, and away
goes protection to hats, shoes, waistcoats, and a long et
cetera of other articles which the farmers and labourers
are obliged to purchase. Perhaps the better way for his
Lordship to adopt would be to commence his task forth-
with. If he be really the friend of the agriculturists and
their labourers, he will not fail to do so—to talk wildly,
as some Noble Dukes have recently, about the propriety
of maintaining these starvation corn-laws, is all moon-
shine; their fate is determined, and they know it. Far
more rational would it be to place the agriculturists
in a secure position, as Lord Stanhope declares
they shall be, before the corn-laws are abolished,
than after that period. The farmers and labourers
ought in fairness to have the opportunity of supplying
themselves and families with all commodities at their
actual value before they are compelled to part with
articles, the result of their own industry, on the like
terms. To advocate this practical right is far wiser and
more prudent than to abuse their understandings by
flourishing speeches about their theoretical rights—the
right to plundt r consumers of food by forcing them to
pay more for it than its actual worth. First and fore-
most the colonial monopoly stands for clearance; can
any person adduce a sane reason why the agriculturists
should be obliged to pay fifteen pounds a ton more for
the sugar they purchase than it would fetch anywhere
else ? or why they should give thirty-seven shillings
and fourpence per cwt. more for their coffee than is
necessary? Remarks to the same effect might be made
upon all other colonial articles. Supposing this colo-
nial monopoly destroyed, as well as other monopolies
which enhance the prices of wearing apparel, the farmers
and labourers would be gainers by the loss of the pro-
tection now given to food.

employed in the London Post• office, and within the circle of
the district post delivery. The increase of business in the
various offices during the last few years has been very con-
siderable. Money-orders have increased about thirty-fold,
and in the newspaper-office not less than 100,000 newspapers
are dispatched nightly, besides a great number which are
now sent by the many morning mails out of the metropolis.
The considerable reductions which have recently been made
in the rates of foreign correspondence have tended very ma
terially to multiply the duty in that department, and it has
been found necessary to afford additional facilities in con-
nexion therewith, by taking down the stone staircase at the
eastern entrance to the portico from Foster-lane. The apse,
which it occupied is now fitted up with pigeon-holes and
boxes, to be used for the purpose of facilitating the duty. and

ARREST OF OLE BULL.—This eminent violinist was
recently arrested at Baltimore, Ohio, under the follow-
ing circumstances :—A contract was made by Ole
Bull's agent with Mr. Barton, of Philadelphia, for Ole
Bull to play four nights at the Arch-street Theatre. Mr.
Barton agreed on his part to furnish a full and complete
orchestra to accompany Ole Bull, who went to Philadel-
phia from Boston to fulfil the engagement, taking with
him Signor Le Mauna to conduct the orchestra. Upoji
his arrival he found Mr. Barton could not procure/the-
orchestra, and wished him to play with a piano- atOom-
panitnent, which he refused to do. He thereby. was, at • 's" '
considerable expense in going to that city to fulfil the '1
contract. Thus the matter stood for more than:a year, z
until, not long ago, in Baltimore, Mr. Barton b,tabint •
arrested, just as he was about leaving his hotel fot thi # ',
• purpose of performing at his concert. '
