[Half the quantity of land, at one half the price,
would reduce the average cost per head for the like
number to about 1001. ; below that average we do not
find mention made of an asylum being built and fur-
nished.]
The Commissioners recommend elevated situations
with extensive grounds, and that employment be af-
forded to all patients, whether private or pauper ; and
that they should be induced to occupy themselves as
much as is consistent with their bodily health ; not,
however, with the view of deriving profit from their
labour, but solely for the purpose of relief or cure.
The number of insane persons ascertained to exist in
England and Wales exceeds 20,000 ; two-thirds of
whom are objects of charity, and are maintained en-
tirely at the public expense.
In most of the counties, where sums equally large
have been required, a considerable portion has been
contributed by private donations, and we anticipate the
pleasure of having to record many liberal acts of the
like description.

TJNI.ICENSED CARMEN.

The CHAMBERLAIN said a circumstance had recently
occurred which he had menti,ned to the Lord Mayor,
and which his Lordship thought that he (the Chamber-
lain) ought to bring under the notice of the Court. It
appeared that an action had been brought in the Lord
Mayor's Court in his (the Chamberlain's) name against
a carman, to recover a penalty of 5/. for pursuing his
calling within the City without being duly licensed. fie
(the Chamberlain) had investigated the case, and had
found that no blame whatever was attached to any per-
son in that particular transacticn, for that a custom
prevailed in the Lord Mayor's Court by which any com-
mon informer could sue for penalties in the name of the
Chamberlain, without his leave, license, or authority.
It had occurred to him that such a state of things, if
they were not put a stop to, ought at least to be in-
quired into, and with deference, he would suggest, that
this, his communication, should be referred to the Com-
mittee for General Purposes, for them to inquire into
and report upon the same, and thereby relieve him of a
very great responsibility.—(Hear, hear.)
On the motion of Mr. D. W. WIRE, seconded by Mr.
R. TAYLOR, the motion was referred to the Committee
for General Purposes.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)

Lord JOHN RUSSELL has remained in town this
afternoon, and has received visits from a number of
his political supporters.

The private letters from America► anticipate a
much less hostile message from the PRESIDINT than
had been looked for ; and it is believed that far more
good temper will bethown than had been calculated
upon a few days baci.

Having held various meetings throughout the
country for the last two months, the League held
their first aggregate metropolitan meeting for the
season last evening, in Covent-garden Theatre; and
never has a meeting more enthusiastic or more nume-
rous been asssembled within these walls. We recol-
lect the gathering at Covent-garden to welcome Mr.
O'CONNELL two years ago. The gathering on the
present occasion was equally numerous, equally enthu-
siastic, and more determined. There were more men
present—quiet, yet determined men—electors—men
who have, or will, possess themselves of the 40s. free-
hold, " that great constitutional weapon," to use
the words of Mr. BRIGHT, " before which the
domination of the hereditary peerage must be levelled
in the dust. But it is not by the numbers who ob-
tained admittance that the numerical metropolitan
power of the League is to be judged of. There were
three times as many turned away from the doors as
the place would accommodate, and we may
state on the authority of Mr. COBDEN that the number
of applicants for tickets exceeded 30,000. It was to
us a subject of great gratification to see the progress
which this question has made. Before it was taken
up by any public body—before the League was
formed—before even the Anti-Corn-law dele-
gation, out of which the League sprung, came
up to London from Manchester, we denounced
the corn-laws, and called for their repeal. For
years we were alone. Well do we remember the
early meetings of the Anti-Corn-law delegates at
Brown's Hotel. Those meetings we reported fully,
and for some time we alone gave full reports of their
proceedings. Other labourers then entered the field;
but now that the victory is won, we cannot but re-
member with satisfaction the part which we took in

THE

NEW MINISTRY.

The following appeared in our Third Edition 61

last night :
No announcement can yet be made of the com-
ponent parts of the new Administration. It is, how-
ever, beyond doubt, that all the arrangements are
going on in a way perfectly satisfactory, and that
the utmost harmony of feeling is evinced by all sec-
tions of the Liberal party.
The leaders of the free-trade party have been con•
suited and advised with; all caution has been used ;
and when the results are known, we feel confident
that Lord JOHN RUSSELL will gain credit for
the tact displayed and the judgment evinced.
That Administration cannot be badly formed which
shall have the entire Whig aristocracy, the free-
traders, and the whole Liberal and Radical party
combined in support, and to which the people of
Ireland accord their confidence and support. We
predict such an Administration.

power of the League is to be judged of. There were
three times as many turned away from the doors as
the place would accommodate, and we may
state on the authority of Mr. COBDEN that the number
of applicants for tickets exceeded 30,000. It was to
us a subject of great gratification to see the progress
which this question has made. Before it was taken
up by any public body—before the League was
formed—before even the Anti-Corn-law dele-
gation, out of which the League sprung, came
up to London from Manchester, we denounced
the corn-laws, and called for their repeal. For
years we were alone. Well do we remember the
early meetings of the Anti-Corn-law delegates at
Brown's Hotel. Those meetings we reported fully,
and for some time we alone gave full reports of their
proceedings. Other labourers then entered the field;
but now that the victory is won, we cannot but re-
member with satisfaction the part which we took in

The Gazette writes—
" He will depart with the fervent good wishes and
sympathy of all the loyal and right-thinking inhabit-
ants of Canada, and leave behind him a feeling of pro-
found regret for his loss ; and his departure will be at-
tended on the part of the iuhabitants of this city by such
testimonials of their respect as harmonize with the pain-
ful occasion of his retirement, and with the obvious wish
on the part of the illustrious sufferer to escape the fa-
tigue and excitement of public leave-taking."
A meeting of the Montreal Town-Council, held on
the 26th ult., agreed upon and presented to Lord
Metcalfe an address, expressing the deep sympathy
which, " in common with our fellow-subjects through-
out this province, we feel for the cause which has
necessitated your Lordship's retirement from the
government of British America."
"The discussion of the Oregon question," says a Mon-
treal letter published in the New York journals, " and
the probabilities of a war between the United States and
Great Britain are the chief topics at present with the
biiitta press. The recent orders from the home Go-
vernsaent to extend the frontier fortifications, and to
erect new ones at several points on the St. Lawrence,
add not a little interest to the matter. The projected
improvements are on a magnificent scale, and, with all
the labour that could be had, will take two or three years
to complete them. From this fact alone, in my view of
matters, there is a great cry and little wool.' The en-
largement of the locks on the canals is not yet finished ;
and from the gigantic size of the proposed ones (240 feet
lung and 45 feet wide), it will take the whole of next
season to complete them. The improvements made this
season have already reached 2,000,000 dolls., and I am
informed by the engineers that there are at this time
about 7,000 labourers on the public works."

THE

NEW MINISTRY.

The following appeared in our Third Edition o

last night :
No announcement can yet be made of the com-
ponent parti of the new Administration. It is, how-
ever, beyond doubt, that all the arrangements are
going on in a way perfectly satisfactory, and that
the utmost harmony of feeling is evinced by all sec-
tions of the Liberal party.
The leaders of the free-trade party have been con•
suited and advised with ; all caution has been used ;
and when the results are known, we feel confident
that Lord Joust RUSSELL will gain credit for
the tact displayed and the judgment evinced.
That Administration cannot be badly formed which
shall have the entire Whig aristocracy, the free-
traders, and the whole Liberal and Radical party
combined in support, and to which the people of
Ireland accord their confidence and support. We
predict such an Administration.

minutes, when they returned into Court with a verdict of
Guilty.
Mr. Harker, the usher of the Court, then made the
usual prcclamation for silence, and the Learned Judges
having put on their black caps, Mr. Justice Matteson
proceeded to pass sentence of death upon the prisoner.
His LORDSHIP said, that after a very long, painful, and
patient inquiry, the jury had come to the conclusion that
she was guilty of the charge of murder of which she
was accused. She had had the advantage of a Learned
counsel, who had urged every topic in her behalf that
was likely either to induce the jury to believe that she
was innocent, or that the evidence for the prosecution
was insufficient, and the jury, after a full inqniry, had
felt that the facts which had been developed were quite
incompatible with her innocence. He, the Learned
Judge, entirely concurred in the verdict, and did not
enteatain the slightest doubt but that she was guilty
of this foul murder. It would appear that, while
residing with the deceased, she became impressed with
the idea that she was possessed of money, and it was
very probable that in the first instance her only inten-
tion was to possess herself of that money, and this had
ultimately led to her killing the deceased in a most cruel
and deliberate manner. He was induced to believe, from
her own statements, that the weight of the crime had
laid heavily upon her mind, and that she had already
probably turned to the Almighty, and sought forgive-
ness ; but if she had not done so, he entreated her to
make the best use of the short time that remained to her
on this earth for that purpose. Her life, by the law of
the land, was forfeited, and the crime was of such a
nature, and was committed under such circumstances,
as prevented him from holding out to her the slightest
hope that the law would not be allowed to take its course.
lie, therefore, entreated her to make her peace with
God, and obtain that mercy from Him which could not
be gran tad by an earthly tribunal. His Lordship con-
cluded by passing sentence in the usual form.
_ _ _

The prisoner •Was then asked, formally, whether she
had anything to urge in arrest of judgment, the obj&ct
being for her to state whether she was in the family-
way or not.

Upon this being explained to her, she said, " I am not
guilty." One of the female turnkeys then explained the
matter to her, and, as it appeared that there was no
ground for an arrest of judgment, the sentence was re-
corded, and the prisoner was removed from the bar.

SUN OFFICE, Seven o' Clock.

THE

NEW MINISTRY.

Lord Jong RUSHILL went to Windsor at eight
o'clock la;;; evening, accompanied by the Marquis of

LANS",owNE.

ft was generally understood that the visit of the
Noble Lords was by the special command of her
MAJESTY, and had reference to a communication
made by Sir ROBERT PEEL in the course of the day,
that HE was unable to re-construct his Ministry if
Lord JOHN RUSSELL should not accept office.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL returned to Chesham•place
this morning, at twelve o'clock. He was there met
by the majority of the friends with whom he has
been in communication for the last few days.
A messenger was forthwith dispatched for Lord
COTTENHAM to Putney. The ex-LORD CHAN-
CELLOR speedily arrived, and until a quarter past
three the whole party remained in consultation.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL left shortly after that time
for the Great Western Railway, en route to Windsor.
A Queen's messenger has been in attendance to
convey disoatchpa to her MAJESTY, but the Noble
Lord carried his own message.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL returns at seven o'clock this
evening, and the result of his mission will then be
announced to his friends, who are to re-assemble at
that hour.

There can be no doubt of the purport of Lord
JOHN'S visit of this evening, and to-morrow's intelli-
gence will show the correctness of the information
which we have been enabled to give upon this im-
portant point.

In a large handsome volume, foolscap Bvo., price 75., bound in cloth,
CHILLINGW OR'rH'S RELIGION of PRO-
TESTANTS a SAFE WAY to SALVATION ; with an addi-
tion of some Genuine Pieces. Edited and published in 1687 at the

D.D., Master of the Charter-house. A new Edition, carefully re-
vised, with a Translation of all the Latin and Greek passages, price
7e., neatly bound in cloth.
*, • This is a most attractive, cheap, and readable edition of Chil-
lingworth's immortal book. It was published is a quarto volume,
only a few months prior to the Revolution of 1688, at the earnest
solicitation of Tillotson, Stillingfteet, Burnet, and other eminent
writers, as one of the most effectual counteractions of Popish prin-
ciples which were then industriously propagated, and supported by
the powerful influence of Court favour. It has long been a very
scarce book, and in great request among literary collectors.

REGENT'S CANAL.

A meeting of this Company was held yesterday, at
their rooms in the City-road, for the purpose of consi-
dering an agreement entered into by the Committee of
this Company with the Central Railway Junc-
tion Company. The chairman (Mr. Parker) called on
the secretary to read the terms of the agreement, which
was to this effect—that 5,0001. was to be paid as" caution
money," in case the Railway Company did not fill up its
lists by the 31st of December ; that in the event of their
Bill passing, 500,0001. was to be paid to the Canal
Company, with another sum of 500,0001. to be liqui-
dated in yearly instalments; that, in the event
of the Bill being defeated on the standing orders, 10,0001.
was to be paid to the Canal Company ; and in case it
should be lost on the merits, and that it was intended again
to submit it to Parliament, 100,0001 should be forfeite to
the Canal Company. This agreement was approved of by
the vast majority of the Proprietors. Seven or eight,
however, supported an amendment to the proposal, that
the seal of the Company should be appended to it, on the
ground that the deposit money should be 50,0001., in-
stead of 5,0001. To this suggestion it was answered
that the railway Company proved the bond fides of its
undertaking by giving such a sum as 5,0001. to the Pro-
prietors of the canal Company for the trouble of meet-
ing ; that the first payment of 500,000/. was equal to
the value of the canal property (the shares being now at
25 premium), and that the additional 500,000/. was clear
gain. The committee of the Canal Company also de-
clared their reliance on the power of the Railway Com-
pany.to fulfil their engagement in every particular. The
meeting concluded by adopting a resolution to the effect
that at a future meeting provision should be made for
the secretary and servants of the establishment of twenty
years' standing.
