sent during the proceedings, as also were Mr. Mackworth
the late local inspector, and Mr. Dickenson, who were
sent down specially by the Government ; Mr. Huddle-
stone, of the Oxford C rcuit, attended on the part of the
owners and managers of the Cymmer colliery; and Mr.
J. G. Owen, of Newport, attended on behalf of the sur•
%dying c :Biers and the friends of the deceased.
The inquest was held at the Butchers' Arms, the prin-
cipal inn in the town, but as there was no room in the
inn sufficiently large to accommodate the jury a shed
was erected in the yard. The portion devoted to the
public was crowded in every part immediately the pro-
ceedings were opened, and every available spot from
which the proceedings could be viewed was speedily oc-
cupied.
The jury having been sworn,
The Coroner addressed them at some length, calling
attention to the nature of the accident, and stating that
at his request the Government had sent down Mr.
Boder, a legal gentleman, to watch the proceedings,
and act in conjunction with the Government inspectors.

having as7,ertained hat he would find the apprentice- a'
the top of the house, he made his way to a small attic,
which they used in common a, their workshop and sleep-
ing and sitting apartment. Thera were two beds in the
room, the coverings of which were begrimed with dirt,
but scarcely any other furniture, and the whole place
presented an appearance of squalid destitution. On ques-
tioning the poor girls with regard to their miserable
personal appearance, they informed him that they had
been compelled to part with the rest of their clothing to

provide them. Having elicited from them, alter some
furtuer conversation, that they had been shamefully

ferred them to the workhouse. . . . .

It i 3 somewhat a departure from our usual course to
make the leadio,; columns of this journal the medium
for laying before Vie British public the claims and griev-
7.DCCS Of inclividualA. To persons in the situation su,l-
-g.ested the deors of our law-courts are open ; there is
the remedy to petition Parliament ; finally, there is the
public press. Tho conductors of any res?ectablo journal
are at all times ready to give insertion in the form of a
letter to any well-authenticated complaint ; indeed, no
inconsiderable share of our own daily labour consists in
considering and disposing of applications of this descrip.
lion. When an aggrieved person is admitted to make
his own story known in this form, of course he, and he
alone, is held answerable for the substantial truth of bis
statement. It is Trite another matter when a case is
"taken up," as the ordinary phrase runs, in the leading
columns of a public journal, for such a step would no
doubt imply, without special notice to the contrary, that
the facts had been carefully investigated, the alleged
grievances duly c nisidered, and that the credit and cha-
racter of the journal were to a certain extent involved io
the truth of the story. Now with reference to the case
which we are about to bring under the notice of our rea-
dere, and which is the subject of an advertisement in our
columns to-day, wo would begin by disclaiming the
faintest shadow of responsibility. We have not investi-
gated the truth of the allegations to which we are about
to advert ; nor, indeed, as they refer to scientific mat-
ters, and to secret passages of the scandalous history of
England sixty years ago, do we esteem ourselves com-
petent to conduct an inquiry of that description. We
wish merely that others should know, as we know, the
story of henry Cert, the father of the British iron trade
—that is, that they should cast a glance over this brief
abstract of a petition which his destitute family have
presented to the House of Commons. This petition has
been forwarded to us, and the allegations it contains are
so completely of a national character, that, for once, we
violate a general and necessary rule, and have deter-
mined to give them all the publicity in our power.
Time was, some seventy years ago, that England was
dependent upon Sweden and Russia for her supply of
wrought iron. Henry Cort, of Gosport, in the county
of Southampton, an iron manufacturer. inventfid, and
secured by patent, in the years 1783.1784, two processes
which relieved us from this commercial servitude, and
liberated for the use of the English manufacturer the
supplies of iron which are stored up so profusely under
the surface of these islands. " The first process effected
the cheap manufacture of wrought iron by the.flame of
pit coal in the puddling furnace ;, the second process,
which was rolling this cheap wrought iron through
GROOVED ROLLERS, enabled the manufacturer to produce
twenty tons of bar iron in the same time and with the
same labour previously required to manipulate one
ton of inferior quality by the tedious operation
of forging under , the hammer." This allegation
is given in the words of the petition. Before' the
year 1785, when iron was, comparatively speak-
ing, but slightly used for commercial, maritime, or social
purposes, we paid annually to Sweden something like
1,500,000/. for wrought iron. Then came the war, came
commercial embarrassments, depreciated paper, foreign
prohibitions, and an overpowering and increasing de-
mand for more and more iron. The inventions of Henry
Cort carried us easily through this period of sharp trial,
and, as his descendants allege, were the principal cause
of our success. It would indeed be impossible to exag-
gerate the advantages resulting from an unlimited sup-
ply of " the precious metal." The only points for con-
sideration in this case are whether, first, to Henry Curt,
and to him alone. the credit is due of enabling us to
draw bills upon Vulcan at sight ; and secondly, whether
he did not obtain all the remuneration to which he was
fairly entitled by receipts from his patents, and so forth.
Now, upon the first point, we are bound to declare that
Mr. Cort's sot has succeeded in obtaining the signatures
of the most eminent engineers and ironmasters in Eng-
land to the petition in which he sets forth his father's
claims to be considered as the exclusive author of the
improvements in the manufacture of iron. The point is
one upon which hostile criticism is very desirable, but
until such very powerful attestation as we see incorpo
rated in this petition is disproved, there is no doubt a
very violent presumption that Henry Cart, of Gosport,
is entitled to be considered as the Tubal Cain of our
century and of our country. The history of Henry Cort's
ruin we cannot altogether disentangle form the allega-
tions of the petition. The most condensed account of
it is to be found its the 58th paragraph, pa,ge.l9, of the
petition :
" That for these unparalleled services Henry Cort
derived no remuneration. He expended a private for-
tune exceeding 20,0001. in bringing his patent processes
to complete perfection. When that was achieved, and
the leading iron-masters of the kingdom had, as related,
signed contracts to pay him 10a. per ton for their use,
his patents were seized by a high officer of the Crown,
holding-the responsible and lucrative posts of Treasurer
of the Navy and Secretary at War, and under an extent
obtained by the perjury of a oonfidentiaideputy his free

Ist. The Kars debate was brought to a close by
the defeat of the motion by the exemplary majo-
rity of 303 to 176.
2d. The bands in the parks on Sunday attracted
some attention in the Commons, and the Police
Bill was proceeded with in committee.
sth. Tho address to her Majesty on the Treaty
of Peace was moved in the Lords by tho Earl of
Ellesmere, seconded by Lord Glenelg ; and in the
Commons it was moved by Mr. Evelyn Denison,
and seconded by Mr. H. Herbert. In the latter
the debate was adjourned.
6th. The debate on the address was resumed,
and the motion was ultimately agreed to without
a division.
Bth. Both houses met early and proceeded to
Buckingham Palace to present the address to her
Majesty. Subsequently, Lord Parimure in the
Lords, and Lord Palmerston in the Commons,
moved the thanks of Parliament to the army, navy,
and marines employed in the late war, and to the
embodied militia. The motions wore unanimously
agreed to. A message from her Majesty informed
both houses that she had been graciously pleased to
confer upon General Williams the dignity of a
baronet and recommending the bestowal upon him
of a pension of 1,0001. a year. The Marquis of
Clanricarde brought before the house the pro-
posed pension of 5,000/. per annum to the Marquis
of Dalhousie, late Governor-General of India.
9th. Her Majesty's message with respect to Ge-
neral Williams was considered in both houses, and
addresses agreed to. In the House of Commons
Lord Palmerston announced that her Majesty had
granted an amnesty to all political offenders. Ad-

the whole of the kingdom. There had been numerous
colliery accidents in the district in former times, hut'on
no occasion had there been so large a sacrifice of human
life. He entreated the jury to discard from their minds
any rumours which they might have heard out of
doors. The investigation would be of the most searching
character, and all the evidence that could be brought upon
the case, whether scientific or otherwise, would be laid
before them. If they found that the explosion arose from
the culpable carelessness or negligence of the persons in
charge of the mine, or in consequence of a breach in the
act for regulating collieries, it would be their duty to re-
turn such a verdict as would insure a further inquiry in
another court. It was unfortunately the case that in
some wines important rules for securing the safety of
the men had been neglected, and since the act came into
operation all the accidents which had occurred in this
district had occurred in those collieries in which the rules
were lax and in which the ventilation had not been pro-
perly attended to.
Mr. J. R. Insole, the chief proprietor of the Cymmer
was first called to prove the ownership of the
mine in which the accident occurred. The collieries con-
sisted of two pits, called the old and new, in the former
of which the explosion took place on July 15. He pro-
duced the rules by which the pits were regulated. They
were printed in Welch and English, and he had received
the usual letter from the Government approving them.
Personally he took no part in the management of the
colliery, but he had given directions for placing a copy of
the rules in the hands of every collier. The persons re
sponsiblo for the management of the colliery were Mr. J.
Thomas the general manager ; Mr. E. Hay, colliery
agent ; 11,1 r. D. Gray, colliery agent from Feb. until
within a few days of the accident ; It. Rowlands, over-
man ; and three firemen, named W. Thomas, M. Row-
land, and D. Jones. Mr. J. Thomas was responsibls ma-
nager as defined by theact, and had the entire control of
the colliery. Witness had no communication whatever
with any of the other officers, but it was desirable to
state that he had never curtailed or impeded the expen-
diture of money in order to secure the safety of the lives
of the men. On the c3ntrary, he had always expressed a
readiness to adopt any suggestions calculated to attain

Bridget llacey, the eldest of the complainants, staled
that some years since she was apprenticed from Holborn
Union to the defendant, who had subjected her to very
harsh treatment, having occasi malty beaten hordrovith a
leathern etrap, and that both her master and mistress
were habitual drunkards. Witness and the other app•
prentices were generally compelled to provide themselves
with food and clothin!, although their average earnings
amounted to 3s. a week, in consequence of their mas-
ter's neglect in supplying them with the necessary ma-
terials for their work. The bedding accommodation
was of the worst description, as they bad slept without
sheets for nearly two years, during which period the
blankets had not once been washed. She had led a
miserable life from the commencement of her apprentice-
ship, and she hoped the magistrates would cancel the
indentures.
In answer to the charge, the defendant said that ho
had recently fallen into adverse circumstances, which
precluded him from discharging his duties towards his
apprentices to the extent he had originally intended, but
that he had studied their comforts as far as his means
allowed, and should be able to prove tbat the account
they had given as to their alleged grievances was greatly
exaggerated.
Mary Anne Williams, who described herself as a
married wool in, was then called, and stated that she
was a lodgi r]in the house, and she had never seen any-
thing in the conduct of the defendant towards his ap-
prentices wl Hi at all justified the present complaint.
She had been given to understand that the defendant
had engaged to supply them with fool, on the condition
that they paid him Bd. a day out of their earnings, fail-
ing which they were expected to provide their own
maintenance. She considered it to be their own fault
if they wanted proper necessaries, as they were capable
of earning about 10d. a day.
On being closely pressed by the magistrate, the wit-
ness stated that the bedding certainly was rather defec-
tive, and that the apprentices sometimes remained with-
out food from their early breakfast hour until six or
seven in the evening. She also admitted that tha defen-
dant and his wife "took a drop sometimes," but that the
lady, in that respect, was worse than her husband. It
was only atintervals that witness lodged in the house, on
which occasions she was in the habit of sleeping at the
foot of the bed occupied by the defendant and his wife.
In reply to a question from the magistrate, it was int'

the Government it was slightly modified in its
terms, and the motion was then agreed to.
14. Sir F. Kelly brought in bills for the consoli-
dation of the Statute Law, and of the laws relating
to bills of exchange and promissory notes. Sir J.
Shelly moved for a return of the ages, &c., of the

relations with America, and a brief debate ensued,
which was shared in by Lord Palmerston and Mr.
Disraeli. The Chancellor of the Exchequer brought
in a bill to amend the act relating to the supperan
nuation of the Civil Service.
18th. The Committee for Privileges on the Wens.

notice of the house the relations between tne Com-
mander-in-Chief and the Secretary for War, anc,,
an
important discuision followed. Sir J. Walmsley
brought on his motion for opening the National
Gallery and British Museum on Sundays, wh:ch
was lost by 376't0 48.
22. The Coiumittee of Privileges met age'
when a motion by Lord Glenelg to refer cert in
questions to the judges was lost by 142 to 111 ; ;) ad
one by Lord Lyndhurst, declaring the report of I[lo
committee to be that neither the letters patent por
the writ of summons issued to Lord Wensley(ltle
could entitle him to sit and vote in Parliament, i-ras
carried by 92 to 57. In the other house the Cl.r.n-
cellor of the lixcheipier made a financial stat©m nt
and moved certain resolutions—one of which rela ed
to a loan of 5,000,0001. The army estimates wire
discussed, and several votes taken.
25th. Sir F. Thesiger moved that the Local D les

that object.
By Mr. Owen—ln 1854 witnere discharged two firemen
on the representations of Mr. Thomas. The colliers
struck in consequence, but the new firemen were not
now in his employment. The strike lasted for 22 weeks
and the law was brought upon the men for riot. The
colliers generally expressed a want of confidence in the
men, and stood out for the reappointment of the old
men. Considerable responsibility attached to the office
of firemen, it being their deity to see that the mine was
properly ventilated.
By Mr. Huddlestone—Mr. Jabez Thomas, the gene-
ral manager, is a man of great experience. He ha i beea
26 years under my father and myself in the management
of collieries, and I have the greatest confidence in him.
He is not a partner.
By Mr. Evans—l have received no communication
from the inspector of the district as to the working of
the mine.
By Mr. Mackworth—A serious explosion occurred at
' the Middle Dufferin Colliery some years ago. I have
no recollection of having received a letter from you,
shortly after that accident, calling my attention to the
necessity of guarding against the occurrence of such an
accident in my collieries. I have also no recollection of
having received a copy of the inspector's printed report
upon the Middle Dufferin explosion. I have no remem-
brance of ever having received a letter from you in re-
ference to my collieries. I have been in the habit of
visiting the mines occasionally, but I never saw any
plan showing the manner in which I recommended the
ventilation to be carried out. Mr. Hay wag under-
ground manager in 1854 when an accident occurred.
There were rules in existence at that time, but they were
not distributed among the men as they are at present.
Mr. Mackworth hero said that he proposed to show
by Mr. Insole that in the rules adopted at the Cy-miner
Collieries the provisions of the act of Parliament had
not been carried out. Mr. Insole sent copy of a set of
rules to the Home-office in November last, in which the
regulations with regard to safety lamps were entirely
omitted.
The Coroner said it was not necessary to enter into
any negotiations that had taken place with respect to
the rules. The jury already had the fact before them
that the rules had been approved by the Government.
Tho proceedings were then adjourned for an hour.

ration the subject of military establishments in the
North American colonies, which led to a brief but
not unimportant debate.

mated 13-37 Mr. James, from the Holborn Union, that the
defendant had received a premium of 51. with each of the
girls, who had been severally apprenticed to him at
various times within the last five year 3, but as he had
manifestly failed to fulfil the conditions of his engage-
ment, it was obviously desirable that the indentures
should be at once cancelled.
Mr. D'Eyncouk said that abundant evidence had been
placed before him to show that the defendant had been
so scandalously wanting in his duty towards the unfor-
tunate children who had been placed under his care, that
he considered there was almost sufficient to justify his
prosecutio❑ by indictment, and he should not only order
the indentures to be cancelled, b-it require him to refund
a portion of the premium amounting to 2/. in each of the
cases which had been brou,lat under his notice. With
regard to the case of the fifth girl, who was not in at-
tendance, he should suspend the summons for investi-
gation on a future day.
Thomas Bennett and Henry Arnold, two youths, were
charged before Mr. D'Eyncourt with stealing a gold
watch and medal from the person of a young lady
named Davis, the wife of a commercial traveller, residing
in Vaughan•terrace, City-road.
The offence was committed on the 10th inst., while
the complainant and a child were passing a somewhat
secluded spot near Hackney. It was broad daylight,
and the two prisoners, who had been gambling with
several others within a few yards of the spot, walked
directly in front of her. Bennett snatched the gold
chain, to which the watch and medal were attac!)ed,
with such violence that it broke, letting the valuables
fall to the ground ; he ran off with the medal, while
Arnold threw the lady on her face as she stooped
to recover the watch, and then followed his accom-
plice. Mrs. Davie fainted 012 the spot, but subse

THE LATE CHARGE OF NEGLECT AGAINST THE AUTHO-
RITIES OF WESTMINSTER
.HOSPITAL.--At an inquest re-
cently held at the Westminster Hospital, on the body of
a little girl, named Ann Booth, who died in consequence
of being run over by a cab, a charge of neglect was made
by Mr. New against some of the officials, who, it was
stated, had left the child unattended to for half an hour.
In compliance with the recommendation of the coroner's
jury, a sub-committee was appointed by the weekly
board to investigate the matter. This committee, of
which Lord C. Res Fell was chairman, have intimated
that, after a careful investigation, they felt satisfied there
was no gross neglect, but at the same time they were
much indebted to Mr. New for the part he had taken in
the affair.
