CORONER'S INQUEST.

On Saturday Mr. G. J. Mills, Deputy-Coroner for
West Middlesex, held an inquest at the Duke of
York, Queen-street, Edgeware-road, on the body of
Harriett Jones, aged 44, a widow, late resident at
the above street.

James Jones, aged 13, a lad of rare intelligence
and command of languag,e, said deceased was his step-
mother, having married his father three years ago,
and he, after two years of constant illness, during
which deceased parted with nearly all her effects to
support him, died six months since. Deceased had
been 19 years in service, chiefly as laundress to the
Earl of Shaftesbury and the Duke of Montrose, and
when she married witness's father he was coach-
man to Miss Beaumont, of Montague-square, in
whose service, a year afterwards, he burst a ood-
vessel, which rendered him an invalid until
he died. Until within six weeks deceased managed
to procure sufficient food for witness and three other
brothers and sisters, all children of his father by a
first wife. At the epoch last mentioned she lost the
custom of the Earl and Countess of Cardigan and
Mr. Hussey, for whom she used to wash, and ever
since she appeared very low and desponding. To pay
her rent (4s. 6d. a week), and to get bread for her
four step-children, she was obliged to pawn all that
remained of her furniture, and he believed she nearly
starved herself. Since she had lost all employment
she was in the habit of lying in bed until late in the
afternoon, when she would jump up as if she were
mad, dress herself hurriedly, go out, saying that she
was going to visit some friends, and not return until
very late at night. In truth, she did not, on these
occasions go to see any friends, but wandered
about the streets. Latterly, of nights, before
she went to bed, she prayed that the
might fall asleep and awake no more. Betweeo six
and seven o'clock on Friday morning witness found
her dead, hanging by the neck from her bed-post in
the front kitchen, by means of a clothes-line. The
previous afternoon a younger brother of his saw her
with the line, and witness believed she then hanged
herself; and that, having locked herself in, they
thought her from home, until he discovered her. Shp
had not paid all the expenses of his father's funeral,
and she had received two lawyer's letters, which an-
noyed her very much.
George Jones, aged seven, another step-son, said
that seeing his another with the clothes-line in the
kitchen on Thursday, he asked her if she was going
to hang herself? She said, " No," and told bun to
go and play. He asked her the question because he
had heard her say she would do so. They all lived
On bread and dripping, but did not get enough. Ver.
diet, °Th4t deceased hanged herself from extreme
poverty."

SALE Or A WIFE AT LEEDS.—On Saturday after.
noon one of these disgraceful and illegal transactions,
the sale of a wife, took place with all the ordinary for-
malities, in the butter and poultry market, in this town.
The wife, who was a rather good-looking woman, about
25 years old, made her appearance according to custom,
with a halter round her neck, which, in our opinion,
might with some show of justice, have been transferred
to the neck of her worthless husband, and made to fit a
little more tightly. A large crowd of people having ga-
thered round, the husband, George Woodhead, of Hems-
worth, near Doncaster, who officiated as auctioneer, pro-
ceeded with the sale, and speedily " knocked down" his
better half (as he is said to have done many a time
before, in another way) to the highest bidder, a col-
lier, illiam Idle, of Ousewell-green, near Rothwell,
who purchased the lady for Ma shillings, 'lie had
been married to Woodhead, who is servant with Mr.
Allen, farmer and butcher, of Hemsworth, about five
years, three of which she had lived in service, in order,
it is said, to escape from his ill,usw• They sfile hsd
been mutually arranged between the parties, hetbre it
took place, the woman having contracted a second mar-
riage with Idle in January last, and been living with
him since that time, The people who assembled on the
occasion would hare

THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who aria bound by their deed
of constitution not to dispute any policy, unless they can prove that
it was obtained by fraudulent misrepresentation ; the great aim and
object having been to render Life Policies COMPLETE SECURI
TIES and NEGOTIABLE DOCUMENTS, which shall owe their
value to the certainty of the contracts upon which they are founded,
and he independent of the liberality or caprice of those who shall be-
in the management of the affairs of the Company when the claims
arise ; and for this purpose the Company have, by a clause in their
deed of constitution, unhesitatingly deprived themselves of the
power of objecting to any policy, unless they undertake to prove that
it was obtained from them by fraudulent misrepresentation. The
regulations common to all other Life Companies, which make the
validity of assurance contracts deendent upon the perfect correct-
ness of the many statements required from a proposer for a Life
Policy, and which have given rise to almost all the questions which
have been argued in the Courts, and to many extra-judicial com-
promises, are thus entirely abrogated ; and nothing but fraud, proved
to have been committed against them, can vitiate a policy granted by
this Company.
THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY from whom the assured on the
mutual principle, receive the whole of the mutual accumulations,
and also a guarantee from the Shareholders for the sums assured.
THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who bind themselves to pay
the sums in the policies, although the debts for which they were
effected shall have been liquidated before the claims arise. The
Company considering it only just towards the assured that where
premiums have been paid for assuring a given amount, that amount
should he paid; and they undertake to de so without reference to
the state of the accounting between the assured and his debtor.
THIS IS ALMOST THE ONLY COMPANY who grant in favour
of creditors whole world policies, whereby the debt is secured,
although the debtor should go beyond the limits of Europe.
The premiums calculated according to the Carlisle Tables, are
lower than usual upon young lives, where participation in the profits
is not required ; and for short assurances, which,. at the option of the
assured, may be continued for life, the rates are as low as a due re-
gard to complete security will permit.

ster and part of Middlesex was held in the Office,
Greek-street, Soho-square, in order to summon a
jury to inquire into, and make a report of the irregu-

that the Commissioners might take the proper steps to
remove the evil complained of on the part of the pa-
rishioners.

as a stagnant ditch of the most abominable charac-
ter, offensive alike to the eye as to the other senses,
supplies the only drainage, if such it may be called,
for a considerable neighbourhood) returned to Greek-
street in about an hour and a half, and their names
having been called over,
Mr. SMITII, the solicitor to the Court; explained to
them the manner in which juries, shnilarly called,
had acted ; and he particularly remarked that, by the
simple process of amercing the parties immediately
concerned in extending that nuisance (namely, the
occupiers of Louses in Garden-street and Upper
Garden-street) in a certain amount, the real owners
of the property, who were the Dean and Chapter of
Westminster and the trustees of Tothill-fields, would
be likely to come forward to-take: the responsibility
off their tenants shoulders. That mode, though ap-
parently harsh at first sight, inasmuch as the tenants
were of the poorest class, was really the most merci-
ful, because, although these fines were hanging over
the parties, the Court did not take immediate steps
to exact thcin, for it had been proyed, heretofore, that
the very knowledge of their power to do so
was a sufficient stimulus to set about an improved
mode of drainage, and so he felt confident it would
be in that case. He would call two of the officers of
that Court before the jury ; the first to prove—what,
indeed, they themselves had but too well seen—the
enormity of the evil from an experience of many
years, and the frequent complaints of the sufferers in
the vicinity; and the other to lay on the table an
estimated cost for the construction of a new sewer in
that quarter.
Mr. Robert Jenkins, the clerk of the works, was
then examined on the first point ; and Mr. Dowley,
the surveyor, stated that the expense for the construc-
tion of a sewer sufficient for the neighbourhood would
be from 8501. to 9001.
After some more evidence of an unimportant cha-
racter had been tendered, the jury retired, and re-
mained some time in consultation. On their
entrance into Court,
The FOREMAN said that their presentment would
be put into proper form by the clerks ; but, in the
meantime, he might give the result of their consulta-
tion. It was the opinion of the jury that the tenants
whom they had marked out (on the map) had com-
mitted a nuisance by discharging their drains into the
ditch; and the ;ury had decided that they—thirty-
one in all—should be amerced in the sum of 301.
each, making a total of 9301., unless such nuisance
were abated, or such works commenced as would
satisfy the Court of Commissioners of Sewers. The
jury also desired that their verdict should be for-
warded to the Dean and Chapter of Westminster and
to the Trustees of Tothill-fields, and they hoped that
those bodies would see the necessity for the filling up
of the ditch, and the construction of a sewer.
This being the only business for the day, the Court
then adjourned.

—Mr. O'Connell himself, who always voted in Par-
liament for the repeal of the corn-laws, and had at-
tended all the League annual meetings at Manches-
ter. The corn-laws welt only maintained for the
benefit of the landlords. (A. voice—" And the cot-
ron lords.") It could not be for the " cotton lords,"
for there were only some fifteen of them in Parlia-
ment, out of the 658 Members. After referring to
the reduction of the duty, on wool, Mr. Cobden re-
verted to the case of hides, leather being an article
with which the inhabitants of Northampton were well
acquainted. The effect of prohibiting the importa-
tion of hides would be the same as the prohibition
upon wheat—there would not be half enough for ge-
neral consumption. People would be compelled to
wear wooden shoes, or go without, and the trade at
Northampton would be ruined. It had been said that
there were important interests connected- with the
corn-law, and, therefore, that it should not be imme-
diately abolished. That point had been well settled
at a public meeting by a man in fustian, who asked,
"Why do you dispute about doing away with the corn-
law all at once ? Did they not put it on all of a ruck?"
There was a certain duty imposed on French shoes ;
but the smugglers brought them into this country at
half the money ; but wheat was a more bulky article,
and could not be so dealt with, and the landlords had,
therefore, the best of the bargain. Let them, then,
have free trade in corn, for they had already done
their worst with shoes. There were other questions,
no doubt, of very great importance to the country ;
but let them not endeavour to carry those important
points by frustrating the achievement of that which
they acknowledged to be a great good. The League
would not go out of their way to interfere with any
other agitation, but, in any work where the road was
long and the journey ardaous, a man would not be
worse off by having plenty of bread procured for him
by the way. ile-himself had voted for the motions of
Mr. Duncombe and Mr. Sharman Crawford With
regard to the sugar question, his (Mr. Cobden's) ob-
ject had always been to get the people as much as
possible, and at as cheap a rate • and for ought he
cared for mere political parties, he would sell either
Whig or Tory, provided he could gain for the people
a reduction of Id. per lb. in sugar. Mr. Cobden con-
cluded by proposing the following resolution :
"That the corn-law and all other laws restricting
trade for the benefit of a class are unjust, and ought to
be forthwith abolished."
The lion. Gentleman concluded amidst loud cheers.

1, blia'
ho, of

Mr. Alderman COTTON seconded the resolution.
Mr. FEARGUS O'CoNNou then came forward amidst
loud cheers from the Chartists, and addressed the
meeting for upwards of an hour, chiefly vituperating
the manufacturers and the Anti-Corn-law League.

the passing of the Reform Bill, Mr. Hume, a gentle-
man whom the last speaker has thought fit to place
before you in terms neither fair nor complimentary,
moved for a Committee of the whole House, for the
purpose o f abolishing the then existing corn-law, and
substituting for a time a much lower fixed duty, with
a view of ultimately coming to the principle of total
free trade. Mr. O'Connor was in Parliament then,
and what said he on that motion ? Did he then say
that he was in favour of free trade with all the world,
but that he would not have free trade because the
working people were not represented. No ; he did
nothing of the kind. Mr. O'Connor got up in his
place in Parliament and there and then defended the
corn-laws, and not upon any of those grounds which
he has advanced here to-day, but upon grounds totally
different. Mr. O'Connor may not be to blame in
this matter ; he may have changed his mind from
conviction since.
Mr. O'CONNOR—Not a bit of it.
Mr. BRIGHT continued—lt will not be amiss if I
give you a portion, or, if he please, and you have no
objection, the whole of his speech on that occasion. It
is taken from Hansard's publication of the Debates.
It has been before quoted in Mr. O'Connor's presence,
and he has never disputed the accuracy of it :
" Mr. Feargus O'Connor—My Hon. and Gallant
Friend, the Member for Bolton, has appealed to the
Irish Members upon this subject, and has called upon
me more especially, as being the representative
of the largest agricultural county in Ireland, to
give him my support. Sir, I am
.going to
give him my support, but it will be in the spirit
of a guardian angel, to protect him from sacrificing his
interest and his happiness upon the shrine of that block
called political economy. The Hon. Member for Middle-
sex, has said that this question is now at rest. I agree
with him, and it is the only part of his speech with which
Ido agree. It is high time that this question, which, at
present, not only agitates the manufacturing and agricul-
tural intereatos_eflulaUCLlatt also the agricultural inte-
rest of Ireland, should be set- at Pea: R due to this
House that I should point out certain fallacies into which
those who support the present motion have fallen, and
lay before it the different situation of Ireland, as con- '
trasted with the situation of this country. The situation
of Ireland is this—we are a gileat agricultural country
without manufactures, and we depend, as a vent for our
produce, on the markets of England. If, then, you ad-
mit the importation of foreign corn, duty free, you will
throw us completely out of the English market ; agricul-
ture in Ireland will be neglected ; and not only will you
sacrifice the only interest existing in that country, but
also the landed interest of England, for the benefit
of the Continental growers of corn. When we shall
have ceased to cultivate our land at home, and
when foreign nations find that we have so ceased,
they will take advantage of our want of home
production, and raise the price of their own
corn at pleasure ; and thus we should be left
at the mercy or the whim and caprice of the foreign
market. It has been said that the Irish Members are una-
nimous in their determination to oppose it. I think I
speak the sentiments of a large majority of those Mem-
bers, when I state that the agitation of this question will
do considerable mischief in Ireland, and that mischief will
be increased, it' a determination to put it aside for some
time is not manifested by a very large majority of this
House. This is the only question, as it appears to me,
in which the interests of the two countries are completely
united and identical. The Hon. Member for Middlesex
says that this is a question of justice against injus-
tice—of the many against the few. But what is the rea-
son that we have not heard of any manifestation of public
opinion against the corn-law ?It is this—that while
those persons who oppose the present system reside in
large towns, and are easily called together in order to
ekpress their wishes to this House, the great agricultural
population, who are interested in the continuance of the
system, are spread thickly over the face of the country,
and have not the same facilities for meeting together
to declare their opinions upon the subject. It is said
that the repeal of the corn-laws will make bread
cheap without reducing the value of the land. This
is a doctrine I cannot comprehend. If you reduce
the price of the produce, rent must fall ; if you keep
up the standard of rent, you cannot reduce prices ; and
if not, how can you give the people cheap bread? I
rose with a determination not to mix up any extra-
neous

Mr. Bright proceeded at considerable length;. with
great force and eloquence, to refute the" calumnies
and fallacies of Mr. O'Connor, and to demonstrate the
benefits which would accrue to all classes from the
adoption of free-trade principles. • . 4
The CHAIRMAN then took the sense of the meeting,
when there appeared a decided majority in favour of
the original resolution of Mr. Cobden.
Mr. O'Coririou came forward and questioned the
accuracy of the Chairman's conclusion, and requested
a division.
The CHAIRMAN replied that there could by no pos-
sibility be a doubt upon the subject.
Notwithstanding the indecency of impugning the
decision of a chairman appointed by themselves, the
Chartists separated from the rest of the meeting, when
their minority, had there been any previous doubt,
became still more apparent.
Mr. COBDEN moved, and Mr. BRIGHT seconded, a
vote of thanks to the Chairman.
The CHAIRMAN briefly returned thanks, and de•
clared the meeting dissolved ; notwithstanning which,
after the departure of the Free-Trade party, Mr.
O'Connor remained and harangued the meeting.
CLARKE, one of the colleagues of Mr. O'Connor,
then proposed a vote of confidence in that gentle-
man, which, as a matter of course, was carried.

.MENT.
First Report from the Sele,
of Lords appointed to in.,
mg " Gaming," with mjnutes of evidence, &c.
(Brought from the Lords, July 8. ordered by
the Commons to be printed, July 9.)
This Blue Book contains no report froin the Lords
Committee on the subject of their appointment, or of
their opinions upon the evidence adduced. It com-
prises the several depositions •of Mr. Edward Savage
Bailey, a solicitor; R. Mayne, Esq., the Commis-
sioner of Police ; Mr. T. Baker, one of the superin-
tendents of that force ; the Lord Strafford, G.C.8.,
&c. Mr. Weatherby, publisher of the Racing Ca-
lendar ; Mr. Vincent Dowling, editor of "Bell's Life
in London ;" Captain Brabazon Higgins, Mr. Hib-
bert, Mr. Richard Tattersall, Mr. Hyde,. Mr. Rich-
ardson, and the late Mr. O'llanlon. The great point
which the evidence of these individuals principally
tends to establish is—that if betting were legalized,
so as to make sporting wagers recoverable like otlr
debts; the effect would be two-fold :-Ist, to saye
parties who mean to pay from the imprudence they at
present commit by betting with utter strangers who
do not intend to pay, if they lose ; but who insist on
being paid if they win ;-2d, to put an end to
the system at present notoriously pursued by men
of straw, who, having betted very largely at 'fatter-
sail's or elsewhere, with sporting character of known
substance and honour, stand to win enormously if the
events they back come off in their favour, but who
levant without scruple if these events come off against
them. They either disappear, in such a case, en-
tirely from the turf and the betting-ring, or, having
the effrontery to re-appear, set the persons to whom
they have lost at defiance under the present law, as
laid down in 16 Car. 11., cap. 7, and 9 Anne, cap.l4.
Mr. Bailey's evidence is an admirable summary of
decided cases, with arguments of counsel and inter-
locutories of judges on suits arising out of foot and
horse races, &c. The extent to which levanting, or
defaulting, has been carried within the last two or
three years, is almost incredible: Mr. Dowling states
as follows :
Have you lost any money yourself, or for any of yoift
correspondents, to any defaulter one particular in-
stance. I paid a bet to a levanter, which bet should
not have paid if I had been informed of his intention to
levant. It was a bet made on commission. Had he
paid, according to the rules of the turf, he would have
been entitled to my bet. I paid him 201., which was
money lost for a person for whom I betted on clmmis-
sion. I paid, presuming he was about to ply the bets
he bad lost, which he did not do. Had I been aware of
his intention I need not have paid him that 201.

He said that the requisition, in pursuance of whichhe attended the meeting, contained 153 signatures
more than that of Mr. Cobden. He denied in their
presence, and that of the Great Ruler of events, upon
his honour as a gentleman, and his oath as a man,
that he had ever received a farthing, or the fraction
of a farthing, from man, woman, or child, Whig,
Tory, or Chartist, corporation, or individual, in the
whole course of his existence, or had ever travelled
one mile, or had eaten one meal, at the expense of
anybody. When the poor men met at Peterloo to
petition for the repeal of the corn-law, it was the
Manchester manufacturers who came upon them and
cut them down. What had caused the change in the
spirit of their dream ? They were then in political
power, and now they wanted to gain their lost influ-
ence. Mr. O'Connor then proceeded to read ex-
tracts from the prize essays published by the Anti-
Corn-law League, which he alleged contained
great contradictions, one set of arguments being
for .town and another for country—in the former re-
presenting that the manufacturers would get cheaper
bread, and in the latter that the farmer would get
higher prices. The League were only for pruning
the rotten tree ; he was for laying the mattoc and
the axe to its root. He was for free trade all ever
the world, but not for being monkeys or tame cats to
any party ; his object being to secure the poor man a
share in the benefit which the manufacturers wanted
to deprive him of. Mr. Cobden had spoken of the
operatives being possibly reduced to wear wooden
shoes, but they actually wear them at this time, and
were glad to get them. Where was now (Mr. O'Con-
nor asked) a working man's clock, his feather bed,
chest of drawers, and other things which he used to
have ? They had all gone ; while the manufac-
turers boasted of possessing as much wealth as
would pay the national debt. He did not charge
the fault upon Mr. Cobden, but it was nevertheless
true that a workman had been discharged from that
gentleman's employ for reading the Northern Star.
Mr. COBDEN emphatically denied the assertion.
Mr. O'Cormon proceeded to read some extracts
from " Almack's Character and Proceedings of the
Anti-Corn-law League," but the purport of them,
save for abusing the League, and thereby avoiding
the question of the expediency of the corn-laws, no
one could discover. After uttering a great quantity
of irrelevant matter, he concluded by moving the fol-

TRIUMPH OF FREE TRADE OVER
MONOPOLY AND CHARTISM.
On Monday last an important meeting of the in-
habitants of the town and county of Northampton
was held at that place, pursuant-to advertisement.
Some short time back a requisition was forwarded
to Messrs. Cobden and Bright, signed by 1,200 agri-
culturists, manufacturers, and others, inviting them
to attend a meeting at Northampton, for the purpose
of discussing the great question of Free Trade, a re-
quest with which those Hon. Gentlemen immediately
complied. A second requisition, signed by 91 sup-
porters of the corn-laws, was subsequently dispatched
to Mr. Stafford O'Brien one of the Members.for the
county, and Chairman of the Publishing Committee
of the Agricultural Protection Society, calling upon
him to meet and refute the arguments of the Members
for Stockport and Durham. An answer was received
from that gentleman declining to be present, on the
ground that the requisitionists were quite able to form
their own opinions without calling in the aid of
strangers.
The Northampton branch of the Ishmaelite section
of Chartists also dispatched a third requisition, which
was accepted, to Mr. Feargus O'Connor, who, it was
intended, should act in concert with the Hon. Mem-
ber for the county, whose presence was confidently
anticipated, from the important situation he was
known to hold in the great Central Society for the
maintenance of the corn-laws. Lord Fitz william,
the Mayor, and several of the most respectable inha-
bitants of Northampton, were severally proposed by
the free-traders as chairman of the meeting, all of
whom were successively objected to by the Chartists,
who intimated their determination to allosV no person
to fill that office except Mr. Grundy, a retired trades-
man of the town, who is held in great estimation by
them. Notwithstanding the palpable unfairness of
this dictation, the free-traders knowing Mr. Grundy
to be a gentleman of integrity and high respectability,
acceded to the proposition, and the meeting was ac-
cordingly presided over most impartially and honour-
ably by that gentleman. Commodious hustings were
erected in the noble market-square, a space capable of
commencement of the proceedings the numbers pre-
sentae ;ommodating with ease 50,000 persons. At the
amounted to about 5,000, which was soon aug-
mented to 6,000.
influe-
ential tradesmen and gentlemen of the town and sur-
rounding districts A great number of the most
were present, including many
farmers, several of whom held up their hands in favour
of a repeal of the corn-laws.
Mr. COBDEN, contrary to his usual practice, sub-
mitted to the meeting a resolution in favour of free
trade, which having been seconded by Mr. Alderman
Cotton,
Mr. FEARGUS O'CONNOR came forward and
proposed a long and desultory amendment, recognis-
ing the great evils of the corn-laws, but declaring
their repeal to be inexpedient and injurious, unless
preceded by the Charter. It is a singular fact, of
which probably no parallel is to be found among the
numerous and flagrant derelictions of principle too
often met with in the history of political parties, that
this amendment was supported by the votes of nearly
all the Conservatives of Northampton, including most
of their distinguished leaders, notwithstanding it re-
commended two propositions—the Charter and the
ultimate repeal of the corn-laws—to both of which
measures they have repeatedly avowed hostility, in
the hope that by the combination of these two ex-
tremes, and in principle utterly antagonistic bodies,
they should be enabled to overthrow the free-traders.
Bodies of Chartists had been brought in from the
surrounding districts, and every exertion was made to
secure the defeat of the Anti-Corn-law League.
Mr. GRUNDY having been voted to the chair, read
the requisition convening the meeting, and called upon
Mr. COBDEN, who was received with loud cheers.
The Honourable Gentleman called upon the meeting
to discuss the question in the terms of the requisition,

What is his name ?—Mr.
Was he capable of paying ?—He was not, probably,
capable of paying to the extent he had lost. He lost, I
believe, to the extent of 22,0001. I have heard he of-
fered a compromise.
Is that man in:F.444nd 2-4 believe he is DOW betting
sub rosa, but I cannot state that - -
There is no doubt he can pay a portion of that which
he lost ?—I believe he has offered to pay four shillings
in the pound.
Mr. Hibbert, a gentleman of fortune, gives two or
three remarkable cases, in which he has been vic-
timised after the same fashion.
Did you lose for Mr.
so much, but several thousands.
Did he ever pay you any part of it ?—Never.
Was it above 8,000/. ?—I had some other transactions
with him, and I know that altogether ho owed me
10,000/.
Did you ever apply to him to pay the sum which you
had lost fur him ?—Over and over again.
You gained no benefit by having been his commis-
sioner ?—Not the least in the world.
Had you to pay the bets which you had lost for him ?
—Yes.
What did he say when you asked him for the money?
—lle is a very plausible sort of a gentleman ; he put me
off from time to time, saying that he would do so and
so, and gave me a bond for something of the kind, but
begged me never to enter it up. I think I had two
bonds on his part, which, with the betting upon that day,
mixed up with other transactions, amounted altogether
to 10,000/
Do you know what has become of him ?—The last I
heard of him was that he used to go to Liverpool a good
deal ; and then I heard that he was at the Isle of Man.
The last thing I heard was that he was upon the Welsh
coast.
Mr. R. Tattersall's evidence is very characteristic.
lie speaks with absolute enthusiasm about racing and
horses ; on betting, he delivers himself with all the
sagacity and clearness which have long been domi-
ciled at the corner of Grosvenor-place. Touching the
latter, for example—
It is my opinion that all laws as to penalties, &c.,
should be repealed which would enable a loser to recommit,
by law the sums he has betted and lost, he being equally
guilty of breaking the law. Those who bring qui tans!.
actions have a double chance. If they win, all right; i
they lose, bring their action, and recover double ; thu
winning by losing. If such a system is suffered no man
is safe. There are many men now living at their country
houses who owe thousands, which if they were honest
men they could pay; but no law can make them, and
thevy laugh at you.
lou know that has bought horses since he • has
been a defaulter?—Yes ; I have heard so. But I am
convinced, from what I see of betting, as to young men,
it would be the saving of thousands, because young gen-
tleman who bet, and cannot afford to pay, compromise
with those betting men, to pay hereafter, and go on upon
' the chance of winning again. If you could get rite money
of .them by process of law it would prevdht half the
betting that now takes place, which would be a great
thineand save thousands from ruin.
You think it wbiild -be very desirelale-that the amount
of money betted should not be so large as it is now ?
—No doubt about it. It is the worst thing that can
happen to betting. If it were made legal, people would
be afraid to bet ; they would go only upon what they
could afford ; and, besides, people would not bet with
such fellows. Look at that man, —; what stakes that
man went for ! eight or ten thousand ! If he had won,
there would have been no end to it. It is not quite so
bad as it was, but it is very bad now. I wish.we could
alter it by law.
You think it has seen its worst ?—I think it has.
What do you attribute that to ? People are getting
more careful ; they are afraid of one another. It is in
consequence o men levanting, and, having got them-
selves into scrapes, gentlemen will not bct with them.
Even in my little way, I say "you must put down your
money." If those men could be forced to pay, it would
be the best thing that could happen to the community,
even amongst the middling class of people. There are
little tradesmen that bet—outside betters. Those men
would go and mind their business if they knew they
were obliged to pay by law_; but theygo upon the chance
of winning 251. or 501, because they know they can-
not be made to pay if they lose, and it is the same even in
the lower class. There are a great many little trades-
men that bet ; I have had twenty or thirty letters for
people to come into my room. Ido not let any one in
now, except upon a reference. I have had many little
tradesmen writing to me, and I have written to them
that I should not let them in. My advice is, if they
hare a little money, to keep it ; not to engage in betting.
Those are the sort of people who are ruined ; they have
an itching for it, and they go, hoping to win 20/., or 30/,
or 50/., but never meaning to pay if they lose, as no law
can make

;IS most anxious to promote racing,
believing that by doing so they will improve the breed
of their horses ?—Upwards of thirty years ago, when 11
first sent horses to Germany, to my friend Baron Biel,
the great breeder, and the man whose horses won all the
races, was Count Plessen of Ivenack. His blood was so
valued that a stamp was put upon every horse. bred by
him, and they sold for a much higher price than any
others, and won most of the races. I then sent. Baron
Biel over a few thorough-bred mares and a stallion. At
first no one would buy his stock, so he was obliged to
train them, and they won everything. They then disco-
vered a thorough-bred English horse was better :than a
native German, and Baron Biel sold his produce at very
large prices. After a time other German noblemen sent
to me for mares and horses at high prices, and of late
years still higher. I sold, of my own, the Colonel for
(no: my own) Grey ' last year, for 1,000/ ; I also sold
Momus fur 1,200 guineas. Taurus
1,900/, and Glaueus
was sold for, I believe, 1,000, and, I am told, Rooking-
ha.n for 3,000 guineas. All these to noblemen who keep
studs of their own. They are still buying. A friend of
mine last year bought horses and stallions to the value
of 8,500/ Had not these distinguished themselves they
would not have fetched a third of it. In Germany they
run for good stakes, or they could not afford to give such
prices. In America they run for larger sums than we
do. This year a produce stakes came off of 1,0001. (not
dollars), each 2251., thirty subscribers. I sent a mare
over to a friend, her produce was second. The winner

guineas ; and
Mr. Batson refused, at my table, 5,000 guineas for Ple-
nipotentiary, or 1,0001. a-year as long as the horse lived,
which he nobly refused, not for fear of the money, for I
would have baen answerable. At that time one firm in
America owed me upwards of 8,0001. I paid for the
seine people more than 2,000/. for insurance of horses
alone. Would they have done this unless the horse had
distinguished himself ? They were most noble buyers:
My orders were almost unlimited. They trusted to me.
And all the best race-horses now in America are by
English horses. Whenever racing is done away with,
there is an end to the noble animal, and the manly sport,
and to your humble servant.
Are not many thorough-bred horses and mares every
year exported to nearly every part of the world, to im-
prove the breed of horses in those countries ?—To every
part of the known world, excepting to China, I have sent
horses ; and always such as have distinguished them-
selves fetch the highest prices. I sent three lately to
Ibrahim Pacha, to Egypt, for the first time ; they were
stallions, and to improve the Arabian blood, wh c they
will do very much, they being very small, but
but not within two stone of our horses of the samema age.
Many hundreds go toFrance every-year ; and the French
dealers attend all our large fairs, and for well-bred
horses give more than our own dealers ; they have
bought more the last two years and

lowing amendment :
" Resolved—That we, . the inhabitants of the county -
an d town of Northampton, in public meeting assembled,
are of opinion that the repeal of the corn-laws, unac-
companied by a fair and equitable adjustment of the
several interests that would be affected by the change,
must lead to a confiscation of the properties of the most
weak and unprotected, and to the centralization
of all manufacturing operations in the hands
of those who would be most capable, from the
possession of large capital, and most ready, by
the possession of a large amount of inanimate
machinery, to take advantage of the change. That,
while we declare ourselveS hostile and opposed to the
principle of restricting commerce by interfering with the
rights of exchange, we nevertheless feel assured that the
question of free trade is one which must be dealt with as
a whole, and not upon mere party grounds. And as we
feel convinced that the whole question cannot be justly,
equitably, or satisfactorily discussed, arranged, and
finally settled by any other tribunal than that constituted
by the whole people, or by representatives fully, fairly,
and freely elected by them ; and inasmuch as such
full, fair, and free . representation cannot by possi-
bility be accomplished through other principles than
those contained in the document entitled The People's
Charter,' we hereby pledge ourselves, in spite of all op-
position, to continue our glorious struggle until the
people's charter is made the basis of the British consti-
tution."

M‘GRITii, the Chartist orator, then followed his
leader in a similar style of incoherency, and con-
cluded by seconding the amendment.
Mr. BRIGHT then came forward amidst loud cheers,
and spoke as follows :—I have listened with the ut-
most attention to the two speeches that have been
made by the mover and seconder of the amendment
which is now before you ; and I confess that, with
respect to the speech of the mover of that amendment,
I am unable at this moment to discover any very clear
ground for forming an opinion as to his views on the
question of the corn-laws ; he spoke against and for
them in about an equal quantity; but, if I had been
under any difficulty with respect to his speech, that of
his seconder has wholly cleared up that difficulty,
for I have perceived during the progress of that
speech a repetition of the arguments in favour of the
corn -laws which are poured forth to a small portion
of the readers of the public newspapers in the columns
of the Morning Post, the Herald, and the Standard.
—(Cheers and laughter.) That gentleman might,
without any impropriety, be the writer of those
articles, so clear is the resemblance, so entire the
identity between his views on this question and those
of the high protectionist paper, the Morning Post. I
address this meeting with the impression that if there
be one class in this country more deeply interested
than another in the discovery and adoption of truth,
that class is the great mass of the people who live
by their industry.—(Hear, hear.) It may be that
the aristocracy and the clergy benefit by a law which
is unjust in principle and injurious to the rest of the
people ; but there can be no injustice practised in this
country by the Legislature under which we live which
can be advantageous to the millions of the people,
who have no property but their labour, and no income
but their wages. Being, then, impressed with this
opinion, I am conscious of no anxiety on the subject
but that of discovering the truth. I am willing to
and do assume that in your minds also there is an
entire wish, to perceive the truth, and act upon it. I
shall, therefore, go into no extraneous matter that I
can possibly avoid. I shall not heap obloquy on this
or that man—(Hear, hear)—but I will ask you
as a class of intelligent men, the thousands here
assembled to hear the arguments fairly on this
momentous question, to judge impartially, and
help by your voices to swell the cry which is hasten-
ingthe glad time when the worst brand which ever ty-
ranny inflicted on a people shall be swept away, and
your industry and mine shall be free.—(Cheers.)
But, before I go to that, there is just one point with
respect to Mr. O'Connor that I must be permitted to
allude to, and lam sure he will not object to it. I said
I was unable to discover from his speech what were
his views on this question, andif I leave to-day: out of
am . eq_ually unable :to, -discover gut
: and 'look back to foriT l
