THE SCHOOLMASTER IN DONEGAL.

A correspondent of Saunders's Newsletter sup-
plies some curious statistics in connection with the
march of education in the Gweedore district. The
writer says :

" I have now lying before me a copy of the
Warder of the 13th inst., in which the proceed-
ings, papers, and resolutions bearing on the at-
tempted assassination of the Rev. Alexander Nixon
are fully set out. Among those I find the names of
94 tenants—of course the principal men who in
'their own persons, and representing the tenantry
not only of their own, but also of the neighbour-
bouring townland, amounting to more than 1,500
person—uniting in a petition to the Executive,
praying a remission of taxation imposed on the
district for lawless proceedings, expressing great
contrition for the same, promising amendment for
the future, and confessing that the allegation of
destitution which was lately presented to Parlia-
ment was devoid of foundation. Having read all
this fine composition, will it be credited in the
19th century—an epoch of diffused knowledge
—will the Times believe this astounding fact—
that there was not a single man among the 94
subscribers who could write his name ; and it may
be safely inferred that if there had been one among
the remaining 1,500 who could, he would have
been called on to perform the important part of
writing his name ? Will the English people
believe this fact, after squandering such immense
sums for education ? What else can arise than
murder, robbery, and the total disorganisation of
the social system, from such a horrible state ? "Will
the Executive institute a searching inquiry into
the cause of this frightful destitution of the common
rudiments of education ?"

purse containing £3 108. He was not sober
at the time. He immediately told Mr. Metcalf,
jun., one of the proprietors of the house, he had been
robbed. Mr. Metcalfstruggled with the pi isoners and
attempted to stop them, but they escaped. They
were shortly afterwards captured.

jun.,
said prosecutor entered the
house he former being drunk, the
Ni
latter sober, and called for something to drink. Tim
barmaid observing the state he was in, refused to
supply him, and advised him to go hom. His friend
then left thehouse. Witness saw the prisoner Leary
put her hand into the prosecutor's pocket and take
his purse. He immediately ran round to the side
door, and observed her pass the purse to Smith, who
put it in her bosom. A scuffle ensued; and the pri-
soners, who managed to release themselves from his
hold, ran down Angel-alley. Knowing the danger
of entering the alley alone, he obtained the assist-
ance of three policemen, when the prisoners were
apprehended in the back yard of one of the houses.
Constable 643. said he assisted in apprehending
the prisoners. He found £1 Is. on Smith, but no
purse.
The prisoners denied all knowledge of the robbery.
The Lord Mayor told Mr. Metcalf that the' bar-
maid had acted with great propriety in refusing to
serve the prosecutor when he was drunk. His lord-
ship then sentenced the prisoners to three months'
'imprisonment with hard labour.
John Hopkins, a ferocious looking fellow, 50
years old, was charged with breaking his wife's leg
with a poker.
Constable 568 said—Yesterday afternoon, from
information I received, I went to St. Thomas Hos-
pital, and.saw the prisoner's wife, who had a broken
leg. She at first said she broke it accidentally, and
upon my saying that I did not believe her, she told
me the prisoner had done it with a poker. She
also said that he had been in the habit of ill•using
her for years.
The prisoner, who denied having used any vio-
lence to his wife, was remanded.

Miss Johnstone who on a former occasion
sought the interference of the Court to compel the
judge of the Whitechapel County Court to hear
and determine a plaint she had filed against a police
magistrate for refusing to punish certain parties
who had subjected her to annoyance in the street
--being on the floor of the court when the judges
entered,
Lord Campbell said they had read her affidavit,
and were of opinion that they could not interfere in
the matter.
Miss Johnstone--Under the wiry distressing cir-
cumstances, to whom, then, am Ito apply ?
Lord Campbell---We cannot give you any ad.
vice.
Miss Johnstone—Here, my lord, is a newspaper
in which I am held up to ridicule.
Lord Campbell—l find you have applied t.o the
Earl of Derby, the Home, Secretary, and other
parties ; and if they have no power to interfere, we
cannot assist you.
Miss Johnstone—But they have the power; and
if they do not use it, I shall be compelled to take
some unpleasant steps. I thank your lordships for
your attention, but I must now take the matter
into my own hands.
The applicant then left the court in an indignant
mood.
The Court was occupied during the remainder
of the day with the case of the " Great Western
Railway Company, v. the Midland Railway Com-
pany," which was a part-heard case in the special
paper, raising certain questions upon an agreement
entered into between the two companies, with re-
gard to joint "running powers" and the leasing of
certain lines, &c.
The Attorney. Generlil resumed his arguments on
behalf of the Midland Railway Company, his ad-
dress extending over more than five hours.
Mr. M. Smith had not concluded his reply on the
other side when the Court rose.
The case will be taken again on Monday next.

Mr. Palmer, and other artistes were taking part,
and a large and fashionable audience were assem-
bled. The concert had proceeded for about half an
hour, when smoke, which had &peculiar smell,was
observed in the room. The committee of manage-
ment at first thought that it arose from the
hot air apparatus, but an inspection showed
them that fire was raging beneath the floor
of the concert-room. The committee thereupon
quickly distributed themselves throughout the
room, and communicated that all was not right
to the audience, and they rose and left the
room as orderly as though the concert had con-
cluded. Indeed, Miss Palmer, who was singing at
the time, afterwards remarked that uponlseeing the
audience rise so calmly, she thought they were
paying an act of courtesy to some distinguished
person who had entered. Before, however, all had
left the room, flames burst through the flooring.
Fortunately, a number of men were at work at the
time, and they and the attendants at the room im-
mediately tendered their services. Several gentle.
men also assisted. A portion of the flooring was
forced up, and a copious supply of water, passed
from hand to hand in buckets, was poured upon the
burning joists. The police, with the city hose and
fire engines, were also speedily in attendance, and
rendered. good service, and the fire was in less than
an hour completly mastered. The greateA proof

WO RSHIP-STREET.—Dennis Coleman, a
powerful thick-sct man, with sharp features and
a bushy beard, was charged before Mr. D'Eyncourt
with obtaining Ll by false pretences from "Worthy
Blake."
The prosecutor, a young man, who stated that he
had' only been two months in London, was accosted
by the prisoner yesterday in Finsbury with an in-
timation that he had some beautiful cigars to sell
cheap. He accompanied him into a public-house,
and then a watch, which the prisoner assured him
'was' silver, and a chain, described as gold, was
offered him for £6 10s. Prosecutor expressed his
doubt of the quality, and prisoner then solemnly
swore to the truth of his assertion ; finally, the two
were purchased for £l, prisoner saying he was glad
to get rid of them at that price, as he was a smuggler
just arrived from Boston, and had, on his passage,
" cribbed" them from the captain. He then walked
away, followed by the prosecutor, who, after being
threatened by him for so doing, gave him into the
custody of a policeman.

very well executed,. and -the watch and chain in
question, which Mr. D'Eyneourt examined with
surprise on learning that.the watch (an engine-

linked was only brass ; he then observed—" This

have been tested.
Mr. D'Eyncourt—Well, certainly appears a
very surprising accomplishment for such a price as

will no doubt be known, and then send him for

pretences.

CLERKENWELL—John Williams and John
Hawkins, two fashionably-attired young men, who
stated that they lived in the Waterloo-bridge-road,
were placed at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt,
charged with stealing a valuable gold watch from
the person of Mrs. Elizabeth Nalder, the wife of
Mr. James Nalder, under the following circum-

On the motion of Mr. BRISTOW, the following
resolution was agreed to :
" That the General Purpops Committee be instructed to
consider the requirements of the Board and its offices, and
to order the architect to prepare the necessary plans for
erecting the building on the site of Berkeley-house, in ac-
cordance with the terms of the agreement entered into be-
tween her Majesty's Conimissioners of Woods, Ste., and the
Board, and that the committee report thereon an 4 submit
the plans to this Board at the earliest possible period.".
PROPOSED NEW MAIN THOROUGHFARE FROM THE
EAST TO THE WEST OF THE METROPOLIS.
Mr. WRIGHT rose for the purpose of calling the
attention of the Board to the difficulty of construct-
ing the middle level sewer, unless in conjußction
with the new line of street from Old•stect, St.
Luke's, to Hart-street, Bloomsbury, a line strongly
recommended by Mr. Marrable, the superintending
architect, in a reportpresented by him to the Board
ct
on 12th Jan., 1857. Mr. Wright said the obje
of the notice was to have the subject of the new
street brought' under the consideration of the Main
Drainage Committee for them to ascertain how far
it might be desirable to carry out the new street
in connection with the construction of the middle
level main sewer. He was afraid that the time
for doing so this year was gone by,but still he con-
sidered it right to bring' the subject before the
Board, and he would now ask their engineer how
far it was desirable to carry on the middle level
sewer in connection wih a new street from Hart-
street, Holborn, to Oldt-street, St. Luke's.
Mr. BAZALGETTE, the engineer, said difficulties
would occur in this locality, but if the sewer
carried on in connection with this line ofstrweeast,
those difficulties, to a certain extent, would be re-
moved, inasmuch -as the construction of the two
works together would make a great difference in
regard to the purchase of property.
In answer to a question from Mr. Wright,
' Mr. MARRABLE, the superintendent architect,
said the net cost of making this line of street would
be
£026,908, but with the expense of paving, &c'
added, the gross cost would be £771,000. The cost
. of that part of the street required by the engineer
—costthexnss,
etocBo7s3t.—would be £437,678, and the gross

Mr. WRIGHT then moved that the Main Drainage
Committee confer with the Works Committee, and
that they present immediately a joint report upon
this subject.
Mr. DIXON seconded the motion.
After a long discussion a division took place,
when the numbers were the motion, 15 ;
against it, 12 ; majority, 3.
Mr. LEGG gave notice for the next Board—

MARYLEBONE.--A respectably-dressed young
woman, named Sophia Wilkinson, residing at 11,
George-street, Lisson-irrove, was brought before
Mr. Long; charged with having attempted to mur-
der a man; and also to terminate her own existence.
White, 96 S, deposed that at six that morning
he was on the platform of the London and North-
Western Railway, at Easton-square, -when he saw
the prisoner rushing towards a man who was in
the act of getting into a carriage, and seize him by
the hair of the head, with the evident intention of
cutting his throat with a knife which she had
drawn from her pocket. Finding • that she was
foiled in her sanguinary object she made a despe-
rate effort to cut her own throat, but was prevented
by witness, who took „her into custody, brut not be-
fore she had, in a struggle, inflicted several wounds
upon her hands.
Witness produced the knife, the blade of which
was between four and five inches long; there was
blood upon. it.
Mr. Lung—ls the man here ?
Witness--He is not, sir. He went off by the
train with the intention, as I understand, of going
to Australia. He and the prisoner have been liv.
jug together for some.weeks.
Mr, Long (to the prisoner)—Thif3 is a most seri_

It appeared that the prosecutrix was near Do
Beauvoir•square, Kiiigsland, rather late in the
afternoon, when the prisoner Williams asked her
the way to the Holloway-road. She told him he
Was going in the wrong direction, when the other
prisoner, who was standing near, made some
remark ; and after she had told them the way and
was about leaving, she heard a snap, and then
putting her hand under her cloak found her gold
watch gone. She took hold of Williams and said,
" You bad boy, you have taken my watch," when
he indignantly asked her what she meant, and told
her to let go of him. Both of the prisoners were
attired in loose coats, and Williams having- broken
away from her grasp, then ran oil', and some work-
ing men pursued them, and finding that they were
followed the watch was thrown away. When the
prisoners were captured they at first pretended that
they did not know each other, but at the station
they pleaded for forgiyenm3, itQlberies of tbis
