LONDON CONFERENCE OF THE
NATIONAL ANTI-CORN-LAW LEAGUE, Com-
mences on rith February, 1842, at the CROWN and
ANCHOR Strand, at Eleven o'Clock forenoon precisely.
The various RELIGIOUS CONGREGATIONS and AN-
TI-CORN-LAW ASSOCIATIONS in and around London
are requested immediately to send the name and address of
such persons as are willing to receive Deputies from Provincial
Congregations or Associations, as their guests during the week
of the Conference, to the Secretary of the Metropolitan Anti-
Corn-law Association, 448, Strand. Tenders will be received
from Boarding-house Keepers, stating the terms and nature
of their accommodation for the week.

By order of the Committee,
F. PLACE, Chairman.
SIDNEY SMITH, Secretary.

ADDRESS TO THE DISSENTING CONGREGA-
TIONS AND ANTI-CORN-LAW ASSOCIATIONS
IN AND AROUND LONDON.
Esteemed Friends,

From a circular issued by the ;Edinburgh Anti-Corn-law
Conference, I learn that " it is understood that means are at
present in progress in London for providing Lodgings, free of
expense, for all the Delegates (to the London Conference of
the Bth of February) from distant places." In a letter which
I have also just received from Mr. Joseph Sturge, he says, " I
hope you have formed a Committee to secure Lodgings free of
charge to our Scotch friends when they come to Lonon, and
written them where to apply when they come to town. If
private hospitality will not provide this, I should be glad to
subscribe towards paying it at a boarding-house. The Dissent-
ing Congregations, if applied to, would, I think, find accom-
modation." I hope there will be no difficulty in your affording
private accommodation, at least to Clerical and Lay Deputies,
from all provincial religious bodies, and, if possible, to Depu-
ties from Associations also."

As it is expected that a thousand Deputies will be present
at Rio Conference, let me recommend to our friends to secure
the use of some public Flail or Room in their respective dis-
tricts for every evening of the week of the Conference. The
public will be addressed by successive Deputations in each lo-
locality; and each evening a Public Meeting will also be held
at the Crown and Anchor. I remain your faithful servant,

SIDNEY SMITH.

EXPLOSION AT MESSRS. CURTIS AND CO.'S POWDER
Mitts.— Scarcely had the excitement occasioned throughout the
neighbourhood of Hounslow by the late melancholy occurrence
began to subside, before we have to announce two other explosions
on the works of Messrs. Curtis and Harvey, which have, how.
ever, most providentially been unattended by fatal consequences.
The first took place in the afternoon of Saturday last, about twenty
minutes to three o'clock, in a powder-room near to the scene of
the previous explosion. Two men named John Irish, about 2'2
years of age, and Win. Fox, about the same age, in the service of
Messrs. Curtis and Co., were sent in to sweep it up, and while so en.
by
gaged, from some cause at present unexplained, except that they
neglected first to damp the floor, the loose powder exploded,the
force of which the windows of the building were broken and the
men injured. The second explosion took place on Monday morn.
ing, about half.past eight o'clock, when the Inhabitants of the
country round, for a radius of forte or five indrs, were al.qmeti by
a loud report, which on inquiry was found to have occurrt‘l at other
works belonging to the same firm, situated at Hatton, near Bei.
font, about four miles from Hounslow, by which the roof of a green
charged mill was, it is sated, blown eft; but without any person
being Lillist or injured.

AMOS V. 310011,E.
Mr. Hayes opened the pleadings.
Mr. HUMPHREY stated the case. This was an action of
trespass. Plea, Not Guilty. The circumstances giving rise
to the present litigation ,were as forows :—The plaintiff and
defendant are both residents in the village of Bugbrooke, in
this county,_ the one being an apprentice in that place to the
Messrs. Wheeler, who carry on a manufactory of soap and
candles. The defendant having been a rnaltster, but now
living on his property. It appeared that on the 26th of Octo-
ber, the defendant, a msn between thirty and fsrty years of
age, had been married, and that a custom was said is prevail
in hat village known by the name of " propping," which cus.
tom consisted of carrying pieees of timber to the house where
the new-married couple were sojourning, and .ropping the tim-
ber against it. The plaintiff had accidentally come before the
house of the defendant on his way home, where persons had
surrounded the sa re, and were piling timber against it. At
the moment of the plaintiff's arrival, the defendant opened
the window, and pointing a gun out of it, said, " Dead or alive,
I will have at you. He fired, and the shot pierced the
plaintiff's face. It was for the injury done to his person the
present action was brought, an injury as unprovoked as it was
unlawful.
Joseph Heales, a tailor, was called to prove the statement,
and Robert Ashby corroborated his testimony. I.i Lis cross-
examination ho said, after the gun had been fired the people
broke the windows.
Benj tmin Wheeler sworn and examined—Ts in partnership
with his brother as candle manufacturers at Ilugbrooke. The
plaintiff-is in their service. Remembers the day of Mr.
:lloore's marriage. Plainiff, with the exception of meal-
times, was at work all the day. He left with witness at half.
past eleven o'clock.
Cross- examined—Plaintiff denied to Mr. Moore, upon being
questioned upon the subject, that he had been shot. Defendant
took him to a surgeon's. 'Amos told Moore it had happened in
another way, but did not tell what that way was,
Re-examined—Witness, being his master, told him it hap-
pened in another way.
A letter, dated November, 1841, from Mr. Beale to the de-
fendant, was then put in and rea
Mr. HILL (with whom_ was Mr.- FLot;m) then addressed the
-jury
for the defendant. It was often said the truth of a letter,
at least of a lady's, always lies in the postscript, and the truth

UNION-HALL-(THIS DAY.)

Two men named Robert Smith and James Soanes, were
plated at the bar before Mr. Cottinghore, charged with assault-
ing and robbing a gentleman, named Pawle, residing at No.
2, Lyon's inn.
Mr. Pawle stated that himself and a friend were returning
from the Surrey Theatre, about twelve o'clock last night, and
nearly opposite Rowland Hill's chapel, he was accosted by the
prisoner Soanes, who demanded from him a halfpenny. lie
told him that he had not got, one. The prisoner was about
to strike him, but his friend deterred him -from so
doing. The prisoner was then assisted by Smith, and about ten
more, who hustled him and his friend; he felt some person's
hand in Isis coat pocket, and on turning round he distinctly
saw his silk handkerchief in the prisoner Smith's hand. He
immediately called " Police." and detained the prisoner, but
was severely struck by Soanes, who attempted to rescue him ;
and had not a policeman come up at the time, he has no doubt
the prisoners would have murdered them.
Policeman 164, L, said, that the prisoner Smith is well known
as a street thief. _ _ • _

Mr. COTTINGHAM stated, that it was a most daring highway
robbery, and had not the police arrived to the assistance of the
gentlemen, there is no doubt the prisoners would have emptied
their pockets, and severely injured them.; he should have com-
mitted them for trial, but the gentlettien did not wish to pro-
secute, therefore, he should sentence Smith to fourteen days'
hard labour at the House of Correction, and Soanes for
seven days.
Achilles Bull, a stout, athletic young countryman, was
charged with stealing a loaf of bread from the shop of Mr.
Turner, a baker, in the New Cut.
The complainant stated that un the previous afternoon, the
prisoner walked into his shop, and having asked for a loaf, in-
stead of paying for it, he commenced "eating it. When re-
quested to pay for it, he said that he had no money, and that
he'd be d dif he was going to starve in a land of plenty.
He was then given into custody.
MAcIsTnATE—You are a fine, powerful young man ; if re-
duced to such distress why not enli,t in the army ; they would
be glad to receive you, as recruits are wanting ? Prisoner—l
don't like to enlist. I would not ge for a seldiet to please any
body. Give me a month at the gaol.
'ihe MAGISTRATE said that he should commit the prisoner
to hard labour for a month.

MONEY MARKET &nd CITY NEW

HERALD.—The public are evidently becoming more favour-
ably disposed towards investments in railway and other shares, as
evinced by the greater demand for them, which is experienced in
the market, and the advance in prices corresponding. It it quite
clear that, without at all presuming to predicate the final profitable.
ness of all the industrial home enterprises afloat, there can be no
mistake in assuming their superior solidity and preferableness fur
investment over 'almost any description of foreign speculation.

STATE OF TRADE.
(!'rtir the Tilanchester Guardian.)

. .
MANCHESTEII.—The announcement of advances by the
Bank Of England at a lower rate of interest, which Wa,
expected by many parties to exercise a 'favourablein-
t-luence upon our market, has, so tpx, produced no effect
whatever ; for prices. still continue. to. droop,: and goods
and yarn were both sold yesterday. on lower terms than
were. ever kncwn' before. The concessions thus made
by 'the spinners had- some little-effect 'in bringing pur-
chasers into the market, and a rather increased amount
of busineis was done at the reduced rates. For goods,
on the contrary, the demand was extremely limited ;
and, notwithstanding the' extremely low prices, pur-
chasers seemed disposed to take nothing but what was
necessary .to supply their immediate ant pressing
wants.

kOC---11DALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, FEB. 28.
We have had a remarkably still market to-day, and the
little business that has been transacted has been done at
very low pries. There •is no change in the wool
market.
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, MARCH 1. —So little
change has taken place in this market, that parties
were divided in opinion to-day ; but, we, 'are ,glad to
state, that, on the whole, there was a slight iniprovement
in the demand, • especially in low-priced fancy woollens.
Business in the warehouses still drags on wearily, al-
though, Perhaps, with a little more animation 'than for
some tirnc past. Wools are heavy, and cost:price diffi-
cult to realise.

not strong enough"—a remark which the sailors relished
wonderfully, and will long be remembered in the Navy.

MRS. ALFRED SHAW.

TO THE EDITOR OF TIIR SUN.
SIR,—In reply to 'an observation in yesterday's
Dramatic and Musical Review, copied into your
Journal of last night--namely,' that all the letters
sent to the various papers respecting the above dis-
tinguished vocalist had hitherto been "anonymous,"
I beg to say, that mine was not (and which the
Morning Herald publicly noticed). I also gave my
address, and delivered the letters personally. I w
induced to this from the circumstance of my baying
frequently met Mrs. Alfred Shaw whoa She was
quite young, and apparently at that time highly ac-
complished, and which seemed to give a direct con-
tradiction to that which appeared to me a succession
of palpable falsehoods. First, that she was a factory
girl. Secondly, that " some one " had had her taught
singing. Thirdly, that the factory girls had attended
the Liverpool Concerta in 1830 to hear their " old
companion sing—and, lastly, that her Christian
name was " Margaret," when to My W 4411 kOow,
ledge the fact is otherwise.
I aro, slr; you' obedient servant,

SUMMARY OF NEI-S`

AND
titibitc ottiton.

" Who runs may read."

FOILEIGN.

A letter from Belgrade, 28th ult., in the Augsburg
Gazette, mentions a rumour that the Ottoman Porte
has disavowed the conduct of the Turkish Pacha,
Shekib Effendi, in the recent Revolution of Servia.
It is added, however, that the rumour did not ema
nate from such a source as to command credit. Ac-
cording to this letter, several persons had been de-
tected in a conspiracy to poison Prince Michael, and
had confessed that they had received the poison which
was found concealed upon them from the chief of the
insurrection.

The following changes are announced at Paris as about
to take place, if not already effected : Marshal Oudinet
is to quit the office of Chancellor of the Legion of
Honour to become Governor of the Invaliiles. Mar-
shal Gerard is to replace him in the Legion of honour,
being in his turn succeeded by General Pajol in the
command of the National Guards of the department of
the Seine. It is also stated that Lieut.-Gen. Tiburce
Sebastiani has been appointed to the command of the
Ist Military Division, that General Dariule enters
the reserve of the Staff of the army, being succeeded
by Lieut.-General Durocheret in the military com-
mand of the city of Paris. Major-General Aupick,
Commander of the School of Application of the Staff,
is to become the Aide-de-Camp of the Due de Ne-
mours, his place being taken by Major-General Cami-
nade, head of the Military school of St. Cyr. Major-
Gen. Carre is to obtain this last-named appointment.
A letter from Algiers states, that at this season
last year there were about 250 or 300 ships in port ;
this year there are not more than 30.

Tile works for the erection of the citadel of Mont-
rouge, forming part of the fortifications of Paris,
were adjusted on the 13th inst.
The Hotel St. Georges, in Paris, has been ordered
to be ready for M. Thiers, who returns at the end of
the month.

The Marquis of Padua, son of General Arrighi,
has just been married to Mlle. Honore, daughter of
the widow of Admiral de Rigny, by her first husband.
The Brussels journals announce that the King of
the Belgians will open in person the legislative session
of 1843, on the Bth of November.

MONEY-TRADE-COMMERCE.
The weight of bread, equal to our 41b. loaf, now
sells at Paris for money which corresponds to our
sixpence and half a farthing. The present current
price in London is Bd.—this is for the first-rate qua-
lity. The second-rate at Paris sells for 41d.—in
London, 61d.

MISCELL ANEOUS.

The two Acts of Parliament respecting bankruptcy
and insolvency will come into force on the Ist and
11t h of November. The ten new Commissioners will
preside in country districts in cases of bankrupts and
insolvents, whilst the six London Commissioners will,
it is said, determine cases in London.

The Liverpool Special Commission closed on Thurs-
day, when the respective juries were dismissed.

VICTORIA THEATRE.
The recently-produced domestic drama Grace of
Gray bids fair to rival in popularity the most suc-
cessful of its predecessors of the same class, for the
production of which this theatre, under the present
management, has become so celebrated; and the new
drama is well deserving of its popularity. It abounds
in striking situations and variety of incidents. This,
of course, was to be expected, for without these two
requisites no domestic drama could live a night; but,
what we hardly expect to find in a drama of this de-
scription, is an artistically-constructed plot and care-
fully-written dialogue ; both these, however, we do
find in Grace Gray, and to these we attribute a con-
siderable portion of its success. Miss Vincent per-
formed the heroine with that intense feeling for
which she is so celebrated. Her Grace Gray
has added considerably to her well-earned fame.
Mr. E. P. Saville, as Saaveda, has an opportu-
nity of displaying the versatility of his talents, of
which he well knows how to avail himself. His
personification of the Count, in the second
act, is first-rate. His manner of easing Mr.
Peter Pipkin (Gardner) of his watch and snuff-
box, after cleaning him out at ecarte, tells
admirably. In his delineation of the Count, Mr.
Saville has hit exactly the line which separates the
slangish polish of the fashionable swindler, from the
unpretending politeness of the well bred gentleman. The
comic portion of the piece is well supported by Miss
Martin, Mr. Gardner, and Mr. Paul. The scenery is very
good, and considering the intrinsic merits of the piece
itself—the talent displayed by the actors, and the ex-
cellent manner in which the whole is put upon the
stage, we think the management may fairly calculate
upon the piece continuing to attract crowded houses
for a long time to come. We see by the bills that
Nicholas Nickleby is in preparation here. Mr. Os-
haldestone is playing a safe card in producing this
piece. We well remember the admirable delineation
of Smike, by Miss Vincent, at the City of London
Theatre, and doubt not but she will prove as attrac-
tive here in that character as she did on the other side
of the water.

The Additions made to the Life Policies granted by this
Corporation for the last seven years vary from 41 to 65 per
cent. on the premiums paid, and average 14 per cent. on the
sums assurer—a result, it is believed, more favourable than
any other Company has hitherto accomplished, when the low
rates of premium charged by this Corporation are taken into
consideration.

THE PRISONERS AT CAUBUL.

We have been favoured with the following extract
of a letter from Lieut. Vincent Eyre, late Deputy-
Commissary of Ordnance at Cauhul:—

TY OF LONDON THEATRE,.
Mrs. Honey's engagement at this elegant. leis
theatre has proved most attractive. She pc,rforrried
last week the character of Paul, in Buckstene's comic
opera, The Pet of the Petticoats, with th.e most fas-
emating naivete. If the real Paul at all resembled his
charming representative, we are not at all surprised
at his having been a pet. There is n style (3f such
simplicity about Mrs. lloney's acting. in this character
which is quite irresistible. Her rich contralto tones
told most effectively in the ballads with which
the part is interspersed, and which she gave
with excellent taste. The duet, " A pious Child,"
which she sang with Dunn, was received with roars of
laughter. It was a rich piece of humour. It was
evident that Mrs. Honey was acting the character
con amore, and we never saw her to greater advanta,se.
She was very efficiently supported by Miss I:Alen
Daly, as Mimi. The bill of fare for this week is a
very promising one—Romeo and Juliet, wi4.,ti Miss
Emmeline Montague as Juliet ; and Don Giovanni,
with Mrs. Honey as the Don, must draw crowded
houses, or there is no taste extant.

His Grace the Duke of Wellington rode into Dover
on Thursday, a,ccompanied by Lord Mahon ; and after
looking at the New Wharf and the excavations of the
Pent mud, returned to Wahner Castle.—Darer
