NOTTINGHAM

A deputation from the butchers of Nottingham
waited upon the Mayor at the police court on Satur-
day.for the purpose of asking his worship if they
would be allowed to slaughter cattle in the borough.
There had been a large meeting of the butchers of
the town on Friday evening in the hide and skin
market to consider the question, but the meeting had
been adjourned until Monday, in order that his
worship's opinion might be first known. Mr.
Everall, solicitor (who represented the deputation),
said that the butchers of the town appeared to be
labouring under an idea that peculiar restrictions
were made towards them. They wished to know
whether they, having purchased cattle from a dis-
tance, and obtaining from the place as it were a
clean bill of health, complying with the new order
in Council, could bring those cattle to Nottingham
to be slaughtered in a given time. The county
magistrates had issued very restrictive orders ; and
clause 18 of the order did not prohibit cattle passing
through a district by rail. The butchers of Notting-
ham thought that this might be interpreted to bring
them to Nottingham or to any other place for the pur-
pose of slaughter. He thought the caseswereparallel.
The Mayor asked the deputation to illustrate a case.
Mr. Everall said, supposing a butcher purchased
cattle anywhere, and obtained from the inspector of
the district a certificate that the cattle purchased
were in a satisfactory state of health, a proper mark
being placed on a corresponding part of the certifi-
cate, and the cattle then sent by rail to Nottingham
and slaughtered in a given time, would that meet
with the sanction of the magistrates ? The Mayor
said he believed Mr. Everall was right in his inter-
pretation of the order respecting the bringing of
cattle from a distance, but the orders his worship
had given had been wilfully thwarted and dis-
obeyed, [and were it indiscriminately allowed all
orders from the bench would be disobeyed. Mr.
Page (ex-mayor) gave an instance how the certifi-
cates of the bench had been thwarted. A butcher
might receive 30 beasts from Liverpool, and, instead
of their being all slaughtered in Nottingham, some

TUE StiN, LONt

I were killed at Snewton, others at Bradford (vil-
lages adjoining), and some brought to Nottingham.
To have kept faith with the magistrates, they
ought all to have been slaughtered at Nottingham.
Mr. Everall did not intend to defend such conduct
as that, and he was sure respectable butchers would
take the same view of the question. The Mayor
said he foresaw the difficulty of depriving a large
town like Nottingham of its supply of food, but his
first orders had been very much evaded. It was a
subject of the greatest importance, and he thought
that the bench had nothing to do but to carry out
the present order. The disease was very much on
the increase in the country. He was anxious to
discharge his duty, which he considered a national
one under the present circumstances. He should
ask the deputation to give their request in writing,
so that he might be able,to fully consider it, and he
would then give them his decided opinion.

RADNORSHIRE.

The magistrates, at the Radnorshire Quarter Ses-
sions, at the quarterly meeting on Thursday, fully
discussed the Order in Council of the 16th of De-
cember, and adopted a series of resolutions in
conformity therewith, of which the following is
the substance :—From the 4th of January to the Ist
of March no bull, cow, bullock, heifer, calf, sheep, or
swine is to be removed to any place within the juris-
diction of the Court, or to any fair or market for the
purpose of sale or otherwise, save as afterwards pro-
vided. No bull, &c., to be removed across the
boundary line of any parish, save in the case of oc-
cupiers of farms in two or more parishes. But
cattle sold to be slaughtered may be removed to any
town or place within the county on the certificate of
the guardians of the parish where such cattle may
be located, that they are free from disease and do
not come from any infected place, such certificate
to be countersigned by a magistrate. The cattle
to be slaughtered within 48 hours after their arrival
in such town or place. No such cattle to be re-
moved between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. Where the cattle
plague shall have appeared no such animals are to

resolution forbids the introduction "from any place
whatever within Great Britain into any place within
this jurisdiction of any bull, cow, bullock, heifer,
sheep, or swine, or any skins, hides, hoofs, or horns."
The inspectors appointed heretofore by the magis-
trates acting in the several petty sessional districts
of the county are reappointed as inspectors for the
county in case the disease shall appear.

MIDLAND.

The directors of the Midland Railway Company
have recently invited designs for their metropolitan
terminus and hotel from a limited list of architects,
with a view to securing the finest architectural ele-
vation that can be obtained to represent them
before the public. Designs were submitted by
Messrs. G. G. Scott, R.A., E. M. Barry, Owen
Jones, H. Darbishire, T. C. Sorby, G. Somers
Clarke, and F. P. Cockerell, of London ; and from
Messrs. E. Walters, Lockwood and Manson, Hine
and Evans, and W. Lloyd, of the provinces. After
much deliberation, a Gothic design by Mr. Scott
has been selected for execution, at a cost of about
£300,000. This design recalls many points noticed
in his original design for the Government offices.
Premiums have:been awarded to Messrs. G. Somers
Clarke, F. M. Barry, and T. C. Sorby, as ranking
next in the order of merit. The site for the build-
ing fronts the Euston-road, between Brewer-street
on the east to the Old St. Pancras-road to the west.

I4A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.O.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly. 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts aro admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refuscd admittance, and have
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will he required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is propsed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be
gratefully received bv:the.liey._l).

On Wednesday the Lord Mayor received a letter
from Sandringham, written by General Knollys,
and enclosing a donation of £lOO from the Prince
of Wales and £5O from the Princess. Their Royal
Highnesses at the same time availed themselves of
the opportunity to express their deep sympathy
with the bereaved families of the unfortunate men
wild perished in the recent explosion.
By a slight typographical error in the report of
yesterday, the expression "future allowances" as
applied to the money set apart in 1863 by the com-
mittee at Newcastle-upon-Tyne as a provision for
the widows and orphans of the men who perished
by the accident at Hirtley•Colliery, was rendered
" profase allowances," in a statement made by the
Lord Mayor, and thus the meaning intended to be
conveyed was not only defeated, but an implied re-
flection which was never intended was cast upon the
Executive Committee at Newcastle.

The Explosion in North Staffordshire.

The repairs to the pump were completed yester-
day, and the work of pumping the water from the
" sump," and the bottom of .the mine was at once
proceeded with. This will probably occupy some
time, and it may be a couple of days before the
" sump" •is searched. There have been no more
inquiries for dead on the part of relatives, and the
managers of the colliery appear confident that all
the bodies have been recovered from the mine. The
full extent of the fatality may therefore be consi-
dered to be now known, amounting, as stated yes-
terday, to the loss of 91 lives.
The immediate wants of the widows and orphans
are being relievel by the Rev. M. W. M'Hutchin,
and when the Relief Committee are in a position to
estimate the amount of the funds likely to be placed
in their hands they will adopt some plan of per-
manent aid according to the means at their com-
mand. The shape the relief will take is as yet only
talked of, but it will probably take the form of
weekly allowances to widows in proportion to their
families, and the orphans will most likely be sent to
an orphan asylum.

The subscriptions to the local relief fund con-
tinue to come in. Among the fresh contributions
sent to Rev. M. M‘Hutchin are £lOO from Mr. C.
Wickstead, Bewdley ; £2O from Miss Child; and
£lO each from Miss Blunt, Mr. Blunt, and Mr. J.
D. Mort.
A public subscription has been opened at New-
castle-under-Lyme, and since Wednesday night
about £4OO has been collected there. Last night a
meeting was held at Hanley, where a subscription
was also opened. The county fund (for Barnsley
and Talk), started on Wednesday, had reached
£l,lOO yesterday, and a considerable sum is being
raised in small amounts in Birmingham, where a
public meeting, called by the Mayor, was held yes-
