turn of it. The fires were as low as possible, scarcely
any at all, in fact the bars were quite bare. I let the
fire out, because I was afraid something would happen.
I should think that there were better than 60 lbs. of
pressure on the square inch on Wednesday. I think
there was sufficient water in the boiler. I was
Under Mr. Lowe's orders the whole time. I was up
about five minutes before the explosion, putting down
sacks on the gunge glass to keep the weather off. That
would have no effect on the safety-valve. Grimes was
on the top placing felt on the steam pipes.
The sacks on the gauge glass were placed
around it, leaving such an opening that the water
in the boiler might be seen. Grimes could net
interfere with the safety-valve. I cannot form
any conjecture as to the cause of the accident.
I am of opinion that it was an over•pressure of steam
that caused the explosion. I did not say anything to
Mr. 1.43 WC about there being too high a pressure on the
boiler.

TEA.—There has been less activity in the market this
week, and little business has been transacted by private
treaty in black or green Tea ; a larger quantity hay-
ing been brought forward, a decline in the value
of some kinds has occurred. At the public sales
held on Tuesday and Wedaesday the trade evinced
little inclination to operate, and the biddings were
very languid : Hyson went at a decline on the rates of
the last public sales of lid to 2d, Young Hyson lid to
2d Imperial, and Gunpowder Id to 2d, Pouchong id tc
id, but Congou and Twankay generally sustained the
former currency. Souchong kept up its previous worth,
and Flowery Pekoe fetched full prices, but Hyson Skin
and Caper went a little cheaper: of the 16 784 pks offered,
only 3,000 were disposed of, including 700 pkgs Pou-
chon. Congou, fresh and new kinds fetched 10d, ra coa

to 4s 6d per lb. The deliveries, however, have been
again large, and the trade are not over-stocked.
MoLAssEs.—Although there are sellers of West India
upon further reduced terms, still buyers have operated
with caution, and very little business has been transacted
by private treaty : at public sale 550 puns of old im-
portation were all taken in—Demerara mid quality at
18s to 18s 6d, Antigua 19s 6d, Trinidad 17s, and Ber-
b'ee 18s. Of Mauritius 57 tierces were bought in at 15s
per cwt. East India is off, red upon low terms by private
treaty.

Pepper, 300 bags at public sale sold at barely the former
value ; good earthy bro‘Nn but dusty Penang, went at

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.

11 and 3.

From Terrace Pier, Gravesend, at 91, 1, and 5 ; on Sundays at

GLOBE.—Mr. Joseph Somes was yesterday declared
duly elected M.P. for Dartmouth. If there were any
who anticipated a different decision, we were not of the
number. From the announcement of the constitution
of the Committee, through the whole course of the inves-
tigation, and down to the publication of the final resolu-
tion of the Committee yesterday, which declared the sit-
ting Member duly elected, the result was as much a matter
of certainty as it was when, 'with the usual forms, the
Chairman of the Committee last evening presented the
report at the table of the House. Those—if, indeed,
such persons can be met with—who attended to the
evidence, as adduced by the petitioners, and regarded
the Committee as a Court accessible to the force of
verified awl, to a great extent, admitted facts, may be
astounded at the decision. All others regard the result
as having occurred in the ordinary course of events.
The majority of the Committee were of the sitting
Member's political party. The Chairman having, for-
tunately for Mr. Joseph Souies, been selected in the
order of rotation from the Tory benches, the question
in issue was as good as settled before the inquiry
commenced. The question to be decided was whether at
the time of the election Mr. Joseph Somes was, or had
then ceased to be. the holder of, or was in anywise in-
terested in, any contract with Government ? To show
that Mr. Joseph Somes was a contractor with the Go.
sernmsnt for the supply of upwards of twenty thousand
tons of shpping, and held that contract up to the very
verge of the election, the following facts were established
in evidence before the Committee. The Speaker's notice
,f the late Member for Dartmouth's death appeared in the
Lnndon Gazele on the 3d of December. Mr. Somes'
address to the electors of Dartmouth, announcing him-
self a candidate for the vacant seat, was circulated in
the borough on the same day. In that ad cress Mr.
Somes' pretensions were enforced on the grounds of his
being " a great ship-owner"—the " owner of upwards of
22,000 tons of shipping, end largely connected with
trade, commerce, and the colonies." The electors were,
therefore, urged, on the plea of advancing their " own
interests," to give Mr. Somes " such a reception and
support as would secure so useful a Member -for their
seaport town." Mr. Somes therefore went down to
Dartmouth as a great ship-owner—" the owner of
22,000 tons of shipping," &c., when, if the case set up
by him -in answer to that of the petitioners against his
return is to be credited, he had retired from business,
parted with his ships, and transferred his contracts
with Government to other hands. In short, Mr. Somes
no longer possessed any, the least, interest in
the property. his possession of which was to confer
such vast advantages on the seaport town of Dart-
mouth ! We must request attention to the dates we
have already given. On the 17th of December Mr.
Somes appears to have been made aware that the quali•
fications which were to be his recommendations to the
Dartmouth voters, were, in the eye of the law, destruce
tive of his hopes. His slips were in the pay of Govern-
ment. His contracts with the Admiralty operated as a
positive barrier to his entering Parliament. What was
to be done ? Mr. Somes would have the public to be-
lieve—and did, through his counsel, induce the Tory
majority of the Election Committee to believe, at least,
to decide—that he, on the 17th of December, sponta-
neously, and as a free gift—not covertly, and for the
purpose of evad:ng the prohibition of the law—made
over by a deed, which is attested by two Lords of the
Admiralty (Sir W. Hall Gage and the Right Hon. H.
L. Corry), a debt of rather more than 51,000/. due to
him from the Admiralty, to his two nephews, Joseph
Somes the younger, and Frederick Somes. On the same
day this most generous neck made over to these doubt-
less highly-meritorious, and therefore munificently-
endowed youths, ships of about 22,000 tons and 120,0001.
value. Having thus cast overboard the impediments to
his safe passage into the House of Commons, or. the 27th
.of December Mr. Somes was elected Member for Dart-
mouth. What adds to the eccentric generosity of Mr.
Somes is the admitted fact that his nephews, a hom he
freely and absolutely invested with this large quantity of
shipping, were innocent of all previous knowledge of
the business in which they were now to embark. They
had no previous knowledge essential to the acquirement
of the experience and tact to which commercial men
are usually indebted for success. They had no place
of business. The name of one of them, it is true,
appears, for the first time, in the " Commercial
Directory" for the present year ; but his place of business
is the same as that of his uncle, who has supplied him with
" a local habitation and a name." Inexperience is wont to
produce blunders. And the haite with which hastily. con-
coct( (1 transfers, made for collusive and corrupt puposes, are
got up, are also frequently productive of blunders which
exhibit their true character, and thus betray and defeat
the intentions of the parties. T which ef these causes
a ludicrous blunder of Mr. Fr, derick Senses is to be
referred, we leave to others. The circumstance is
worthy of record. This young gentleman joined with
his brother in a joint tender to the Admiralty of a
ship, which a reference to the registry-hook at. the Cus-
tom-house shows to have been transferred by Mr. Somes
to Mr. Joseph Somes, jun., and not to the brothers jointly.
Whether the transfer of Mr. Joseph Somes' property
was bohd fide, or collusive—whether it was by deed of
gift, or by bargain and sale—whether for the purpose
of ridding himself of a legal disqualification for a seat
in the House of Commons, or fur any other object—
was not, however, the question with which the Com-
miitee had to deal, and were called upon to decide. The
question placed in issue was, whether the terms of the
statute which regulates the transfer and registration of
ships had been complied with in Mr. Some? case? The Act
(3 and 4 Wm. IV. c. 55), the object of which, according to
its preamble, is to consolidate the laws relating to the
registration of ships, expressly enacts (sec. 34) that no
bill of sale shall be valid to pass property in a ship, until
such bill of sale shall have been registers d in the re-
gistry-book of some port. The bills of sale of Mr. Somes'
ships to kis nephews are all dated on the 17th of Dec.
But there is no registry of a date previous to the elec-
tion; the earliest date of any such registration 'tteing
December 28—the day after the election. Mr. Somes had
not, therefore, when ho was elected to serve in Parlia
went, complied with the terms of the statute. He
still had an interest in ships serving the Government
under contracts not voided before the day of election.
A clearer case of disqualification was never established.
A more palpable proof that a House of Commons' elec-
tion Committee is incapable of divesting itself of party
irfluences, when rt quired to pronounce a just decision
which involves the .eating or unseating of a political
partisan, aas never supplied. Whether the Committee
consist of 13, 7, 5. or 3, is a matter of trifling moment.
The majority will, in nine cases out of ten, decide in fa-
vour of the party which favours the political views of that
majority. This has grown into a proverb by the long
experience of its truth. Hence no confidence in their in-
tegrity is placed in the legal or moral decisions of such
a tribunal.

The jury then returned to Poplar.
The CORONER proceeded to address them. He begged
of them to dismiss altogether from their minds All•
judices which might be present to their minds.-on this
occasion, and he wculd request their undivided atten-
tion while he laid the facts of the case before them. These
facts were contained in a very narrow compass. Mr.
Samuda, they were aware, was engaged in some very
extensive works, and the boiler to which their inquiries
had been directed was required in the process of his
wcrks. The boiler itself was, with a solitary exception,
stated to be in good working order, of good workman-
ship, and altogether, if kept within its own proper
compass, as unexceptionable as it was required to be.
He (the Coroner) could not help thinking that in this
ease there had been an undue pressure upon that boiler.
On the last occasion of this kind on which Le had met
them, they might perhaps remember that he had in
stanced the case of a cannon which had been sent to
the maker in order to be repaired, which on
its being tested burst ; and a verdict of man-
slaughter was brought in. The Learned Coroner
then exp!a;ned to the jury the limit at which man-
slaughter stopped and murder began. But he did not
think that' Mr. Lowe could have had any personal motive
as required in the ease of murder, for it w ould be clearly
his interest to carry on the work without acci-
dent. But in manslaughter it was laid down,

that alLhough there was no intent to kill, vet
if the act were manifestly improper, and resulted
in death, then the person so acting was guilty of man-
slaughter. (Several cases in point were cited) It
would be for the jury to say whether Mr. Loa e had
used ordinary caution on this occasion, or whether he
had• exercised a recklessness that brought him within
the operation of this law. Ile (the Coroner)
entreated them to look to the trying and embarrassing
situation of Mr. George Lowo in reference to this
ermine. It would appc-ar, from the evidence, that the
engine would not go freely, and he was, in common par-
lance, " trying it on," as far as he could, to overcome
the difficulty. They were not to condemn the
man because, in one particular instance, he had
been unfortunate, if it was shown that, generally,
he had acted with a proper degree of skill and of cau-
tion. They must consider that in this case Mr. Lowe
himself had been a sufferer; and if a man were present
and using a reasonable degree of skill and caution, it
would remove from him a criminal responsibility
arising from a _ loss of life. (The Learned
Coroner then read over the evidence in detail.) He
was sure that they would give their fullest
attention to this subject, and that while they gave
every protection required for the preservation of her
Majesty's subjects, they would not, at the same time,
crush, by an ill considered verdict, the prospects of any
individual, and perhaps by so doing be in some measure
retarding the progress of the arts in this country.
The jury retired to consider their verdict at a quarter
to four, and again returned into Court at six o'clock.
The Foreman then annouced that the jury had unani-
mously found a verdict of " Manslaughter against.
George Lowe," and they added their opinion that the
machinery generally on Mr. Samuda's establishment Was
of a most defective character.

OILS.-Holders of common descriptions of Fish Oils
are for the most part not inclined to submit to lower
rates, and the market has been sparingly supplied with
all sorts ; the demand from the home trade, how-
ever, has been limited, and the export orders are
unusually small; Cod has been fetching 291 lOs

at these rates the demand has been good.

occurred.

Definitive arrangements having been made for the construction
of a Railway by the Great Western Railway Company from Corsham
to Yeovil, and of another important line under the direction of the
London and South-Western Railway Company from Southampton to
Dorchester; the object of the Exeter, Yeovil and Dorchester Railway
Company is, a Line of Railway from Yeovil, with a Branch
from Dorchester, to direct these two large streams of traffic by one
main channel, through a populous and thriving district to Exeter.
This Railway will effect a more direct communication between the
West of England and the Metropolis, and supply Railway communi-
cation to a country hitherto unoccupied, and form an uninterrupted
chain of Railway by the Coast, from Dover to the Land's End.
In addition to these immediate advantages, application is in-
tended to be made in the ensuing Session, for a Line front Basing-
stoke to Salisbury and Yeovil, which will still further very consider-
ably diminish the distance between Exeter and London.
It will connect Yeovil and Dorchester with Exeter, and pass
through, or near to, the Towns of Ilminster, Crewkerne, Chard,
Beamiuster, Bridport, Axminster, Honiton, and Ottery St. Mary,
and will afford a Railway accommodation to the watering-places of
Lyme Regis, Seaton, Beer, Sidmouth, Budleigh Salterton, Exmouth,
and the adjoining districts.
The Committee, confident that this important undertaking will
hear strict investigation, issue their Prospectus thus early ; and will
at once proceed to complete the Surveys, enter into such arrange-
ments as they may think expedient, and take all the necessary steps
for obtaining an Act in the ensuing Session.
Power will be taken in the Bill to allow Interest at Four per Cent.
per annum on all Deposits and Calls, from the time of payment until
the opening of the Line ; and no liability will be incurred by any
Subscriber beyond the amount of his subscription.
It is intended to proceed to an early allotment of Shares, giving pro-
ference to local applicants ; but the Committee think it unadvisable
that the whole of the deposit should be now called for. An instal-
ment, therefore, of ss. per Share only will be required on allotment,
according to the provisions of 7 and 8 Vict., c. 110, applicable by„ the
Committee towards the expenses cf the proposed undertaking.
The residue of the deposit will be payable in November next (un-
less any future order of Parliament should render it otherwise neces-
sary), and the Shareholders will be required to execute a Subscribers'
Agreement and Parliamentary Contract, the lime and place of exe-
cuting which, and also for the payment of the residue of the deposit,'
will be notified in the " Times," the " Herald," the " Exeter and
Plymouth Gazette," the " Western Times," the " Taunton Courier,"
the " West Briton," and the " Railway Times," newspapers ; and in
case either of non-payment of the residue of such deposit as afore-
said, or the non-execution of the Subscribers' Agreement and Parlia-
mentary Contract when required as aforesaid, the said instahnent of
ss. will be absolutely forfeited, and the Shares appropriated to other
parties without further notice.
Further particulars may be obtained from, and Application for
Shares made to, the Solicitors, the Secretary, or Messrs. F. and W.
Atkinson, 61i, Threadneedle-street ; Messrs. Charles and Henry Hill,
29, Threadneedle-street; Messrs. Field, Son, and Co., 9, Warnford-
court, London; Mr. Thomas Sanford, Messrs. Beaumont and Lang-
worthy, Mr. G. It. Glidden, Exeter; Messrs. George Edwards and
Son, Bristol ; John Hall, Esq., Liverpool ; Messrs. John Raliton and
Son, Manchester; Wade, Esq., Temple-street, Birmingham; or to
Messrs. J. H. and G. Ridsdale, Leeds.
The Committee will be desirous to allot the Shares to unexception-
able parties in the order in which the applications are received ; in
all cases where the parties are unknown, references will be required.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
(YESTERDAY.)
MANSIOIV-HOVSE.
Day and Johnson, who have undergone several ex-
aminations upon suspicion of having robbed a lady of
the name of Logan, who resides in Hanover- street,
Hanover-square, of a purse containing bank-notes and
other property, were again brought up.
Mr. Robinson, who appeared as solicitor for-the pri-
soners' and contended all through the investigation that
they had nothing to do with the robbery, produced two
witnesses of good character who deposed that they were
present in a house in ttmithfield when Day received two
5/. Bank of England notes and four sovereigns, in pay-
ment for a chesnut horse, en the morning of the day on
which he passed the two notes which he was. charged
with having stolen.
The Lord Mayor and Sir John Pirie very closely
sift( d the case, w hich was ingeniously defended by the
solicitor for the prisoners, and decided, evidently with
reluctance, upon discharging them.
The LORD 'MAYOR observed that the case was one of
a very suspicious character indeed—that due diligence
did not appear to have been exercised in eliciting facts,
and that in all probability the list of the property which
the lady had either merely lost, or been robbed of, would
be heard of, and might lead to future proceedings.
It was directed that the bank Rote which had been
taken by Mr. Morrison,- of Cheapside. from Day, for
clothes purchased by that prisoner, should be returned
to Mr. Morrison. The Lord Mayor gave no direction
with respect to the second 5/. which Day had requested
Mr. Morrison to get changed for him.
The prisoners appeared to be rejoiced at being dis-
charged, and hurried i.svay without saving a word. -
GLERK.EIV WELL.
SPA-FIELDS' BURIAL GROUND.—Tv:elve o'clock yes-
terday was fixed upon as the time at which the inquiry
into the practices carried on in Spa-fields Burial-ground
was to be rezaimed. At that time the poor widow
Nelson, whose melancholy statement was published in
this paper of yesterday, was in attendance. Mr. Wake-
ling, the vestry-clerk, the police inspectors, and several
of the most respectable tradesmen in Clerkenwell were
also present. Much to the disappointment of those
present, it was understood that the magistrate (Mr.
Greenwood) who presided refused to entertain the
matter, having no jurisdiction whatever in the shape in
ehieh -it was brought before him. The poor woman,
with tears in her eyes, informed the repsrter that she
had been to the burial-ground again on that (Thursday)
morning, and in the meet earnest manner besought of
the manager to open the grave that she might behold
her husband's remains, but he declined to do so, and
with a sorrowing heart she was obliged to leave without
any hope of having her wish gratified.
The reporter visited the grave yard yesterday, and
thinks it right to state that he was treated with civility
by Mr. Bird, the manager, and that several men were
emplos ed in filling up those graves which had been
opened, and in opening others to satisfy the relatives of
persons interred there. Mr. Bird said, the reason he
could not open Nelson's grave was because she could
not point cart the exact spot; but a gentleman who was
then present, and who was al:o present at the interview
between the woman and Bird, said the woman had
pointed out the place. The ground seems quite full, and.
the smell proceeding from such graves as ivere still open
was most unpleasant.

THE LATE BOILER EXPLOSION
AT BLACKWALL.
ADJOURNED INQUEST.

VERDICT OF MANSLAUGHTER.

Mr. Baker, the Coroner for East Middlesex, and the
jurymen appointed to conduct the inquiry into the deaths
of the men Chapman, Grimes, Smith, and Wright, who
were killed by an explosion at the works of Mr. Samuda,
at Bow, creek, Blackwell, re-assembled yesterday at the
Town-hall, Poplar.
Mr. Ballantine, as usual, attended for Mr. Samuda,
and Mr. Floe er fur Mr. Lowe, the engineer.
The CORONER informed the jury that another unfor-
tunate man, named Neale, had died on board the Dread-
nought hospital ship, and the jury having viewed the body,
Mr. BAKER informed them that he had received a me-
dical certificate, stating that the important witness,
Whitcombe, was in too dangerous a state to be removed,
and it would be necessary, therefore, that his evidence
should be taken at the London hospital.
Conveyances were ordered to be in readin:ss to
carsey the jurymen there.
The evidence of Joseph Chalk, engineer, was read
over, at the request of Mr. Flower.
The witness was then examined by Mr. Flower—l
am an engineer, and have been at the trade for about
eight years. During that time I was in the employ of
Mr. Samuda. I recollect that on the day of the accident
Grimes, a labourer, was engaged on the top of the boiler.
It was necessary that he should use a ladder to get to the
top. Supposing that the ladder had slipped, the effort
he would make to save himself would be to catch the
lever. The effect of that would be, in the one case, sup-
posing the lever to break, to cause the steam to iseape,
or if it did not break, it•would.keep the valve shut, and
so cause an explosion.
By the Foreman—The only part he could possibly lay
hold of would be the main lever, which would compress
the steam by shutting the safety-valve.
Thomas Meriton, 4, Hall-street, Poplar—l am an en-
gineer, and have been so for 15 or 1G years. The boiler
in question was sold to a gentleman in Greenwich for 30
guineas, and afterwards purchased by. Mr. Samuda, but
for what sum I know not. Thirty guineas is not a third
of its real value. It was a very good boiler. It was
made for a low pressure. There was a steam chest in
it, and that must necessarily cause part of the original
boiler to be cut away. That would render the iler
weaker in that part.
By Mr. Flower—l am aware that the boiler had been
proved. It was tested by myself at not less than 501bs.
to the square inch.
By the CORONER—It was proved by the hydraulic
pressure. It would be a mistaken notion to say that a
pressure of 181. was all it could bear. It was only in-
tended, I believe, for a pressure of 12 or 151bs. I have
no doubt it is the same boiler.
By the Foreman—l tried it at 501bs. with cold water,
but should not like to try above %Abs. with steam.
By the CORONER-1 think that it would be possible
to prove boilers without endangering the lives of persons.
By Mr. Flower—The boiler was town made, and of
the first-rate construction.
By the ConoseEß-1 cannot speak of the valves, for
the mounting was not put on by us. It is quite requisite
to have two safety-valves. '1 he mode of pitching the
lever in this case was a very convenient one, and not
in any way detrimental. Where there is only one
safety valve it will certainly he more necessary to exer-
cise caution than when there is two.
J. Burnand's evidence having been read over, the wit-
ness was subjected to cross-examination by Mr. Flower
—I thought I was insulted by Mr. Lowe. I am not very
exclusive. I had some words vvitii Mr. Lowe about
hammer handle 3.
The joryinen thought that this cross-examination did
not bear upon the point at issue.
Mr. Flower was proceeding to addres the jury, when)
The CORONER said that he could not allow any ob •
servations to be made then ; and the jury left to take
the evidence of the witness Whitcombe, at the London
Hospital.
On airiving at the 'Hospital, they were conducted to
the ward where Thomas Whiteembe was lying. lie
was sworn, and said—l am au engine-driver. I have
been engaged Blackwell since June last. I the
boiler tried on Monday, but the steam would not touch
the engine., In order to remedy this defe,t, Mr.
Lowe got a bock put upon the steam-pipe to dra
ilw
the condensed water off, still the engine did not go we.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current of March 20.)
SUGAR.—To-day there was a good demand for every
description of West India Sugar, and the quantity dis-
posed of amounted to 400 hhds and tierces, rather higher
rates were paid, malting the advance for the week 6d on
brown, grey and common yellow, and I s per cwt on good
and fine
ness transacted had the market been better supplied with
bright Grocery sorts. The total purchases for the week
amounted to 1580 hhds and tierces. The market closes
with a healthy appearance for all sorts of Sugar sulject
to 14s per cwt duty. Business will be suspended in the
Sugar market until Wednesday, on account of the Easter
holidays. At the Custom House, to-day, some parcels of
Dobah, No. 1, and Kobah, were stopped by the Custom
house officers, who insisted upon a duty of 16s 4d per
owl, in consequence of their being Claycd, or equal to
White Claycd, and not Refined.
REFINED.—TO-day several parcels of Refined Sugar
were taken by the home trade at 65s for brown, and at
66s 6d to 67s per cwt for standard lumps. In Bastards
there was more business done at the rates quoted above.
Bonded Crushed Sugar selling more freely at 31s for
best sort.
MAURITIUS—This afternoon there was no public sale,
but privately some parcels were sold, and the rates paid
were generally rather above previously quoted.
EAST INDIA This afternoon Bengal Sugar
met
with attention, 2,266 bags, duty paid, were of-
fered- at public sale and sold at firm rates, viz.
good white at 525, middling 50s 6d, low 498 6d,
damp 413 to 54, ma-shed 46s 6d to 51s, yellow damp and
washed 35s to 38s 6d, better quality 42s to 455, damp
brown 345, very low 275. 637 bags in bond were with-
drawn, the trade re fusinc, to encourage the system of
selling at aloft price. Of Mulras 2,870 bags in bond
were offered at auction, but withdrawn from the same

FREE-TRADE BAZAAR.
MEETING OF LADIES.
A morning meeting of ladies resident in Camberwell
and Peckham, was held yesterday in the Lecture Room,
Hill-street, Peckham, for the purpose of hearing an
address from Mr. George Thompson, in explanation of
the objects of the Free-trade Bazaar, to be held in
Covent garden Theatre in May next. The meeting was,
most respectably composed.
On the motion of Mr. FARRIND, a member of the
Society of Friends, Mr. J. A. Lyon, of Camberwell, .
took the chair.
Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON then presented himself, and
delivered an eloquent and impressive address on the
great national objects which the League have in
view, in promulgating the principles of free-trade
with the nations of the world. He dwelt forcibly on the
skill and industry of the productive classes of this
country, and on the itopolicy and injustice of those
legishnive enactments which prevent them from ex-
changing the preducts of their labour for those of other
countries. He congratulated the country that the ques-
tion' which he was ten adv-Ocating—the abolition Of all
monopolies—was not a question of sect., party, or politics,
but one of pure humanity and justice, in the advance-
meut of which persons of the most opposite polities, and
of all sects of religion, were uniting. He showed that
the opponents of free trade were every day lessening,
and that vast numbers of its hitherto greatest an-
tagonists arc now to be found in the ranks of
its warmest supporters. Ile expressed his gratification
at seeing so many ladies present, and his belief, that the
ladies of Camberwell and Peckham would, in unison.
with the ladies resident in the..various other parts of the
metropolis, do all in their power to contribute, by the
works of their own hands, their influence, and exer-
flow, towards the success of the Great Leagunßazaar.
He impressed upon Ids fair auditory, that es. the time
for holding the Bazaar was fast approaching, and that
as the intervening space was short, the necessity for
active co operation on their part was, in proportion,
great. He urged them to importune their friends,
by the exercise of their pens, Seca for money contribu-
tions; and predicted that the Bazaar, according to
the indications from all parts of the et,untry, would be
one of the grandest spectacles of' the kind ever wit-
nessed in any country. The Learned Gentleman, whose
address was listened to with the profoundest attention,
was followed by Mr. A. L. Saul, of 'the League, who
further elucidated the advantages which would arise to
, the country from the adoption of free trade, whose prin-
ciples he explained. A Ladies' Committee for the
districts of Camberwell and Peckham was then formed,
with power to add to their number; after which the
meeting separated, the ladies expressing much conver-
sational sataaetien with the proceer:lrgs.

LINES to the " CLERK of the WEATHER."
Mr. " Clerk of the Weather," don't take it amiss,
That we trouble your honour with rhyme such as this,
We were tempted to string a few verses together,
On account of the singular state of the weather.
Father Winter, for such a long time has been King,
That we almost begin to despair of the Spring.
Don't you think, " Mr. Clerk," if you tried the right strain,
You could cause Father Winter to give up Ills reign ?
If this were effected, much good would be done,
And you'd greatly oblige Messrs. MOSES and SON.
Then let us persuade you to make the endeavour,
You know, Mr." Clerk," you're remarkably clever.
Tell Winter, the next time you meet In the sky,
That thousands are longing to bid him " good bye."
And pray don't forget, Sir, to lay a great stress
On MOSES and SON, and their present Spring dress.
Explain, while the various facts you are stating,
That the dresses for Spring are In readiness waiting.
And while you descant on the dresses of MOSES,
Tell Whiter we all shall be glad when he closes.
Of course, Mr. " Clerk," you are fully aware,.
That MOSES' Spring suits arc remarkably rare,
Yet none can assume, till the Winter is done,
The charming Spring Garments of MOSES and SON.
A new work, entitled " 'DIE LEVIATHAN OF TRADE," with
Rill directions for Self-Measurement, may be had on application,
