A public meeting of the inhabitants of Hull is to
take place on Monday next, to consider the propriety of
petitioning Parliament against the unjust intention of
continuing to tax incomes derived from personal skill
and exertion, and in the same proportion as those de-

rived from realised capital.
Queen's Theatre, Hull, opened for the season on
Wednesday. The corps dramatique are very efficient,
and, with the accessions announced, will doubtless form
one of the best companies out of London. The house
was well filled, and on the curtain rising, the audience
gave signs of hearty welcome to the whole of the per-
formers by the most deafening plaudits. After the
National Anthem had been sung and encored, the
manager, Mr. Egerton, was loudly called for ; after the
applause had subsided, Mr. Egerton in a neat speech
returned thanks, giving every assurance of his continued
endeavours, by a succession of new pieces, and of per-
formers of celebrity, to merit the public approbation.
The good humour of the audience, and the evident wish
of the performers to exert themselves may be taken as a
good criterion that Mr. Egerton may rely upon another
successful season.

as is reported. As one of her boats was passing from
Newhaven quay to go on board, a squall tell into her
lugsail, and upset her. Various fishing-boats, pushed off
with great promptitude, and rescued three of the boat's
crew; but the fourth sank to rise no more. One of the
crew, a little boy, was nearly exhausted, but hopes are
entertained that he will recover. This is the second
death by drowning that has taken place among the
schooner's crew since she came here, a man having pre-
viously jumped overboard. A great many more have
deserted.—North British Mail.

We read in the Courier Francais :—" M. Jollivet,
deputy for the Ile. et-Villtiine, left his residence in the
Rue Saint Florentin, on Thursday, intending to go to
the Chamber, but was not heard of for four days. On
Sunday, at eight o'clock, in consequence of an anony-
mous note to the commandant of the Tuileries, search
was made for him near the Pont Tournant, and his body
was found under a heap of sand, with those of two
workmen. Ho had received a ball under the right arm-
pit. His watch, his medal as deputy, and his pocket-
book, containing his papers and cards, were found upon
him untouched."

before that time an immense and overwhelming mass
of persons, principally of the working classes, had con•

Oakley-street. No sooner were the doors open than the
multitude rolled in,
and
long before the persons who had
called the meeting together, Mr. F. O'Connor, M.P. ;
Mr. Wakley, M.P. ; Mr. C. Cochrane, and others, ar-
rived, every foot of ground was occupied. From the
numbers that entered there could not have been less
than from 5,000 to 6,000 persons present. Shortly after
seven o'clock, the chairman, a working man, and the
persons who were to address the meeting, came on the
platform and were received with the most vociferous
cheering. The speeches of several parties were in full
accordance with the object of the meeting, and resolu-
tions in accordance were carried by acclamation.

horn has brought an entire cargo, consisting of 2,100

usually large and important importation from the Tus-
can states of Italy.
