IMPORTANT GEOLOGICAL DISCOVERT.--It Will
undoubtedly be interesting to geologists to learn that a most
important discovery has just been made in that department
of science at Applecross, on the west coast of Scotland. A
I.irge mountain, called To
sented e More, a
on
übstr being accidentally
ime,ex-
cavated the other day, pi e satum of ure l
within five feet of the surface, and on prosecuting the disco-
very by a further excavation, it was ascertained beyond a
shadow of doubt that the whole mountain, except an average
surface of twenty feet, consists of lime fit for the field or the
mason, the result of organic heat. The bill appears to have
been at one time a stupendous limestone rock, submitted to
the influence of immense heat. On the summit are found,
traces of volcanic origin, such as charred and vitrified ston e ,
lava, &C.

GERMAN Y.

The Prussian Staats Anzeiger, of the 31st ult.,
states that in the conferences 9t Warsaw Austria has
accepted four of the propositions of Count BRANDEN-
BURG, and has rejected two. One of the latter is the
demand of Prussia that for the future the Presidency
of the empire should be held alternately by the Em-
peror of AUSTRIA and the King of PRUSSIA, and
which was supported by the Emperor of RUSSIA.
The other proposition relates to the place of meeting
of the two powers for the free conferences. Prussia
proposes Dresden, and Austria Vienna.
Accounts from Frankfort of the 31st ult. state that
the Austrian and Bavarian troops have received
formal orders from Vienna and Munich not to pass
the frontier of Electoral Hesse.
London, England, 1850-11-04

baker, however, refwed to do so, on the ground
that it was a crmt.y loaf, fthl, thez, upon the palv.r
carricel the broad to a neigh touring baker's, where it was
weighed, and found to be two or three tunes deficient.
The contractor was then summoned befire the magis-
trates, and, unde-r the 7th section of the Bakers' Act, he
was'convicted in the penalty of 51., for refusing to weigh
his bread when requested to do so by the purchaser.
Against this decision the contractor appealed, and, at the
quarter FeAions, he contended that the magistrates had
no jurisdiction in the matter, inasmuch as the 7th section
did not apply to the sale of bread in a shop, but only to
the sale of bread from 'a
cart or carriage. The quarter
sessions, however, ruled differently. They held that the
words in the Act—" every such baker shall be liable to
the penalty of 60—applied to all bakers, and they con-
firmed the decision of the magistrates. Now that wa3
substantially the question to be argued in this case. The
appellant contended that the section was only applicable
to bakers telling from a cart, otherwise every baker,
when he sent home bread in a basket, would be com-
pelled to provide his man with a pair of scales to meet
the demands of troublesome cooks, who wished to have
the bread weighed. The 6th asd 7th of William IV.
was passed for the purpose of extending the City of
London Act, the 3d of Geo. IV., chap. 106, to the en-
tire country, and that Act, although it provided
that every baker should exhibit and furnish his shop
with weights and scales, it made no provision for fining
him in the event of his refusing the request of a cus-
tomer to weigh the bread he was selling.
Mr. Justice PATTESON observed that that was a
strange omission.
Mr. PARNELL said it really was so, for the only pe-
nalty which the City of London Act inflicted upon a
baker who kept a shop was a fine of 10s. for neglecting
to weigh his bread, whether he was requested to do so
or without. There was no penalty whatever for refusing
to weigh the bread in the presence of the purchaser.
Appiicatioll granted.
The court atterwrrds sat at nisi prime, and disposed
of several undefended cases.

IRELAND.

DUBLIN, SATURDAY,--REPRESENTATION or LIME.. I
Ricit.—Mr. W. Barrington, son of Sir Mathew Bar-
rington, is mentioned as a candidate for the seat in
Limerick city, about to be vacated by Mr. John
O'Connell.
TnE TENANT LEAGUE AGITATION.—The organs of
the League report two more county meetings—as
they are pleased to call assemblages of the priests of
Waterford and of Letterkenny, in Donegal. The
wandering deputies of the League attended both, and
repeated their standing speeches. Neither meeting
presented any new feature.
DEATH or THE LIBERATOR.—A weekly paper,
called the Liberator, which was started a couple of
months ago as the organ of Mr. John O'Connell, is
dead. No publication took place to-day, nor is ano-
ther expected. So much tor O'Connellism.
SCHISM IN THE ltoatisn CHURCII.—Tha really in-
tellectual portion of the Irish Catholics are in favour
of the new colleges. They do not hesitate to declare
so openly—but if prepared to say what they will do
in the event of the decrees of Thurles being confirmed
by the Pope, a definite answer is rarely given. Som.,
however, go the length of asserting that in such case
a schism in their Church is inevitable, and we think
so too. The Cork Examiner, a Catholic paper, of
great interest in the south, in an article on this sub-
ject, says—
" In the heat and exasperation of the moment—
mainly caused by the indiscreet language to which we
have all along alluded—Catholics vvill he found to
mutter threats, and say they will not be bound by
this or the other decision."

BOSNIA.

A telegraphic dispatch reached Vienna on the
29th ult., from the frontiers of Bosnia, announcing
that for the last two days that province had been in a
state of open insurrection against OMER PACIIA,
Throughout the 28th a loud cannonade was heard.
OsMoa BEY is at the head of the insurrection. Two
battalions, composed mainly of Hungarian refugees,
attend him as a body guard.

LONDON, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1850.

Why is it that the Papal Government has, in Ire-
lane!, prohibited a system of education similar to that
which it has permitted anel sanctioned in France ? In
other words, why is it that it endeavours to usurp an
authority in a Protestant, which it does not venture
to assert in a Roman Catholic country ? The question
is one of considerable importance, deserving a cate-
gorical answer. Sir ROBERT KANE, in his admirable
address on the opening of the second session of the
Queen's College, Cork, to which we have recently
alluded, has shown that there is not a single provi-
sion in the French educational law, passed during
the present year, which the means and rules of edu-
cation existing in Ireland do not fully secure. The
French law ie, to all intents and purposes, one of
united education. The State has necessarily a great
interest, an influential voice in the management of
these establishments, but it has no separate or ex-
clusive authority. In the council there are four
Roman Catholic bishops, but there aro two Protestant
ministers, and—even going further than we do—one
Jewish Rabbi. There is nothing forced upon children
to which their parents, of any creed, could object.
but each student can receive instruction in those
general branches of education of which all can ap-
prove. " The principle of mixed education is," to
use the eloquent language of Sir R. KANE, " con-
ceded from the Rhine to the Pyrenees," and this
with the full a3sent of the Court of Rome. "The
Voice from the Vatican" declared that, "although
the new law might not loe everything that the Church
might wish, it was yet n great improvement upon the
preceding state of education, and that the bishops
and clergy ought to give it co• operation, and ought to
avail themselves of all the means they acquired under it
for promoting piety and religion."
Dow diffenol'.; was this from the course pursued in
Ireland? Ceu'id it b 3 said with the slightest ap-
pearance of truth, that the system introduced
by the new colleges was not a great improve.
ment on the preceding state of education ?
Certainly not—not even "JOHN of Tune'
himself could dare to assert the contrary.
But yet we find the same authority denouncing the
system in one country of which it approved in another,
where it might be supposed to have much greater
rig i Sietry nd weight in the national councils—the
ice from the Vatican," declaring that the

street door, which having opened cautiously he lookel
down his area, and seeing that a door leading to 1,
storeroom, adjoining the kitchen, had been broken
open, he called out "C. me up," when the prisoner
stood forward and endeavoured to ascend the steps
leading to the road. He, however, kept her at bay
until the arrival of police-constable Rowe, 91 E, to
whom he called for as.istance, and she was secured ;
but her companions made their escape in another di-
rection. Before she was apprehended she emplored
him not to be hard, as she would be transported per-
haps for 21 years if he prosecuted her. The timely
discovery prevented a further depredation.
Sergeant Graysmark, No. 8 E, said the accused
was one of the most desperate characters in the me-
tropolis, and a notorious thief. Not long ago she was
tried at the Old Bailey, with three men, for a bur-
glary en the premises of Mr. Raven, surgeon, Comp-
ton street, Brunswick-square, and escaped a conviction
on that occasion, the humane and Learned Judge
Lord Denman on the trial mercifully urging to the
jury that she might have acted under the control of
her companions, who were found guilty and traLs•
ported for life.—She was committed for trial.

LOUIS PHILIPPE.
(T DAY.)

LATEST PAK I ICUL ARS.
(F110:4 A. CORRESPONDENT.)
His illajAst.y King Louis Philippe died this
_morn-
ing, the, 26th of August, at Claremont.
The King had been made aware of his approaching
dissolution early yesterday, in the presence of the
Queen, and receiving with calmne:s the melancholy
information thus first broken to him, prepared for the
final arrangements which he wished to make.
After a conversation with the Queen, he dictated,
with a remarkable clearness of mind, a conclusion to
his memoirs, in order to complete a history which ill-
ness had compelled him to suspend for more than four

months.
, He then caused to be summoned his chaplain, the
Abbe Guelle, all his children and grandchildren who
were at C aremon►t at the time, and in the presence of
the Queen and his family, he discharged every duty
of religion with the most perfect Christian resigns •
tion, a stoical firmness, and a simplicity which is the
real evidence of human greatness.
He then remained for some time surrounded by
his family. Towards seven o'clock in the evening
the debility from which the King had been suffering
appeared to have passed over, and fever came on,
which continued during the night with much violence,
but without disturbing the composure of mind which
never abandoned his Majesty. _ _

He expired at eight o'clock this morning, in the
presence of the Queen and the following members of
his family :—Their Ropl Highnesses the Duchess
of Orleans, the C )unt de Paris, the Duke de Chartres,
the Duke and Duchess de Nemours, the Prince and
Princess de Joinville, the Duke and Duchess d'Au-
male, the Duchess Augusta de Saxe-Cuburg, and the
attached attendants of the Royal househokl.

THE GUNPOWDER MAGAZINES AT WALLASEY

The commissioners of Wallasey, in their memorial to Sir
George Grey, have made out a strong case for the removal
of the gunpowder magazines to llilbre Island, or some other
more remote or isolated district. It appears that the amount
of powder kept in deposit by the various lessees is about
16,000 barrels, or between 700 and iOO tons; and that, on an
average, the receipts and deliveries are about 2,000 barrels
weekly. Traffic in so explosive a commodity has been too
long permitted on the shores of the Mersey, and in the im-
mediate vicinity of a large number of the residences and of
the summer resort of the merchants of Liverpool and their
families. If we may judge from the melancholy results of
recorded explosions of gunpowder, few persons from Sea-
mbe to the Rock Perch would survive a single accident to
the magazines at Wallasey ; whilst it is more than probable
that the shipping and property on the Liverpool side would
suffer materially. We trust, therefore, that after the repre-
sentations which have been made to Government, no delay
will take place in the remoyal of this dangerous store from
the banks of the river Mersey. Since writing the above we
have ascertained, from the host authority, that the memorial
has been forwarded by Sir George Grey to the Board of Ord-
nance, who have ordered a colonel of engineers to proceed to
Liverpool, in order to report on the construction of the build-
o: ei t
t— i
build-
ings, and on the probability of danger from storing there
large quantities of gunpowder.— Liverpool Mercury.

THE TRADE or LEEDS.--Goodi suitable fur the
winter trade have sold freely at our cloth-halls, both on Sa-
tur:lay and on Tuesday, but the supply continues short in
consequence of the manufacturers being. engaged to order.
Prices are steady, and the stocks in all hands are much
liwtr than usual at this period of the year. Business in the
wa:eldouses has been pretty brisk, both with the wholesale
buyers and the country drapers, and there is more doing by
the shipping houses than usual so late in the season. —Leeds
