LONDON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1845.

The recent premature demonstration in Italy by the de.
voted advocates of popular institutions, adds another mourn-
ful tablet to the melancholy records which, of late years, have
accumulated in what we must rather designate as the tomb
than the temple of Italian freedom. New victims to the
noble cause of renovating the political and domestic institu-
tions of that magnificent country have already expiated, at
various points within the legation of Ravenna, their generous
but ill-matured attempt to induce the Pontifical
Government to grant to remonstrance and appeal
that which it has been heretofore attempted to
extort by physical force. Others are, we fear, reserved for
the usual mercies manifested by the PorE for political pri-
soners who have been declared guilty, by his arbitrary Com-
missions, of treason to the Papal authority, by reason of such
overt acts as having landed on the shores of Romagna; or
reached, without passports or other authority, some port in
the Adriatic ; or been living in seclusion and misery among
the fastnesses of Calabria. It is remarkable that on thislast oc-
casion, although the champions of " Young Italy" had so far
succeeded as to seize and disarm the municipal authorities and
executive of Rimini, and to retain that town for some days in
military possession ; and although, as there seems good reason
to believe, they had previously organised a contemporaneous
movement at Faenza, Imola, and even Bologna itself, they
declared by manifesto and proclamation, that it was not their
intention in the event of their success to displace the Roman
Government, but merely to secure the concession and estab-
lishment of such rights on its subjects as might for the
future protect them from the recurrence of the griev-
ances, the exactions, and oppressions that the people
inhabiting the States of the Church with so much reason
complain of. After making in Rimini and
elsewhere a really formidable impression, the insurgents
dispersed and fled—some to the Appenines, others to the
sea. They were hotly pursued by combined bodies of the
Papal Carabineers, the Swiss corps, and the mounted Custom-
house officers. Though much alarm seems still to have
existed at the date of the last accounts, we should doubt
much whether the movement may not be regarded, for the
present, as defeated.

The intelligence, however, must be looked upon in every
respect as highly important. It reveals some facts from
which the friends of the established order of things under
the Pope's Government, and the friends of the regeneration
of Italy, are equally interested in drawing a lesson of instruc-
tive experience. The former may be assured, on considering
the promptitude, boldness, and extensive organisation of the
affair at Rimini, that the principles which set it in motion

have a vitality and energy speedily manifest
themselves under some new combinations. The stand which the
insurgents made in retaining their position for the period that
they held it, may teach the Pontifical Councils that so long as
they obstinately refuse to modify the tyrannical institutions
which the Sovereign PONTIFF has introduced throughout his
Italian dominions, so long will new physical resources be brought
in aid of the moral force of popular opinion, and the complaints
of the oppressed. The POPE can scarcely be so infatuated as
to imagine that the Gothic rigour, and uncouth but despotic
machinery of his Government can much longer co-exist
with the general advance and improvement of political in.
stitutions and public rights in all the other States of Europe.
In the meanwhile we hope that the party of Young Italy—a
party whose generous purposes and patriotic devotion com.
mend our warmest sympathy and most sincere respect—will
profit by the recollections of this last disaster. Who leads them
in France ? Who is really their trusted head, their general
director in England ? We are deeply impressed by some
incidental remarks in the French newspapers on the notoriety
which the intentions of the insurgents had acquired on the
same day, probably the same hcur, in Paris and at
Marseilles. Their plan of operations, their purposes,
were actually discussed in the public coffee-houses; and
in Italy itself their intentions seem to have been for
two or three days previous to the seizure of Rimini known
to the Papal authorities at various places. This knowledge
would appear to have been so easily obtained, that one is
tempted to doubt whether it was not rather communicated
to, than acquired by, those authorities. In every previous
demonstration that has been made by the active and valiant
partizans of Young Italy their gallant efforts seem to have
bean neutralised by some as yet unexplained bungling, some
inveterate mismanagement, on the part of Young Italy's
standing counsel—whoever they may be, wherever theyreside.
The enterprise, spirit, and almost romantic intrepidity of the
one have been thwarted, damped, and check-mated by the
incapable presumption of the other. The stirring champions
of the cause have vindicated their courage, and, to some ex-
teat, their conduct in these operations in Romagna, al-
though they have for the present eventuated in failure.
bat the latent oracles, whose questionable inspiration, and
very doubtful truth, inspire their movements, seem to be
earning only new titles tc the incredulity and repudiation of
all the foreign friends of Italian regeneration. We
would fain hope, but we have sad misgivings to
the contrary, that new BANDEIRAS, that other 3 oung and
high-souled sons of Italy, may not be destined to testify
with their blood against the unrelenting tyranny of the
Papal Government; and the impracticable and hopeless im-
becility—if it be not something worse—of the civil leaders
wider whose suggestions or instructions they have dared all,
sacrificed their own lives, and ruined the fortunes of their
he .uses. Alas! for " Young Italy."

and it has communicated nothing of it to the country. And
to reduce a chief of some roving bands, who for five years has
escaped from all pursuit, an army is placed in BEGEAUD'S
bands four times more considerable than the army of Italy
under BONAPARTE. Truly it appears that after having ex-
aggerated the shame, these folks still want to exaggerate the
ridicule of the matter."

A grand concert was to have taken place on Tuesday
evening, at the Tuileries, but, in consequence of the disastrous
news from Algeria, it had been countermanded.
The following are other extracts from the papers :

The progress of the new Reformation in Germany far ex-
ea eds the most sanguine expectation, and promises to confer
tb a greatest blessings on the Catholic population of that ex-
te naive country. The pastor RONGE is looked upon with a
jealous eye by the Sovereigns of Austria and Prussia, and by
Kings in general, " perplexed with the fears of change," but
the people enter heartily into the cause. The modern
LUTHER is received by them everywhere with open arms.
At Ulm, Stuttgard, panheim, Heidelberg, and latterly at
Frankfort, his arrival was welcomed by immense crowds, and
his march through the different states is described as
r ssembling more the :gorgeous triumph of a con..
qperor than the journey of a Christian minister.
1 tut the most important point of all remains to be noticed.
The riots at Leipsic bad given :great uneasiness to the Go-
vernment of the King of SaxoNv, and as these were sup-
posed to have been caused by the excitement connected
with the new religion, the Chambers of that kingdom, on
t heir assembling some ten days since, proposed to appoint a
committee to take into considemtion the whole question of
German Catholicism, as promulgated by RONGE. A com-
mittee, after some discussion, was accordingly appointed.
They were not long in making their report, and we are
t.7atified to find that it is so liberal and satisfactory.
The report enters into the state of the question, and the
progress of the new doctrines, as well as other opinions not
i mmediately connected with Church affairs. " The move
rnent," it says, "which has taken place in the whole of Ger-
many, has been, followed by a series of events which could
not fail to interest every thinking mind, as well as the Go-
vernments of the various countries in which they occurred.
One of the most prominent of these occurrences
is the separation of a considerable number of
Catholics from the Roman Catholic Church, and the formation
of a German Catholic Church, the communities of which are
continually increasing in various parts of the country. This
new church .is not only different with regard to its dogmas
and church organisation from that from which it has sepa-
rated itself, but also from all the other churches and commu-
pities of Germany, professing, however, at the same time to
be a Christian church." The report then recommends the
Government to decree the following temporary regulations
with regard to the German Catholic Church and its commu-
nities, addir g some additional points for future consideration :

" 1. That in all such places where, in consequence of the great
number of German Catholics or other local circumstances, the al.
location of a particular place of worship should become necessary,
the use of an evangelical church should be permitted to the new
community, with the exception, however, of the permission
of ringing the belts of that church, &c. 2. The doc-
trines preached by the ministers of the new church
must not militate against the constitution of the state.
3. The ministers of the new church 'are permitted to
perform in their communities the ceremonies of baptism, marriage,
and burial, on the condition, however, that a Protestant clergyman
be always present on the occasion, but that the latter shalt not be
obliged to afford his attendance. The Committee is of opinion
that, considering all the circumstances, and in order that these
temporary regulations should be the more effectual, the mi.
nisters of the German Catholic Church ought to he allowed to
perform in their communities the ceremonies of baptism, mar-
riage, and burial, having only to indicate the same to the resident
Protestant divines; and that with respect to marriages, the former
should only perform the religious ceremony. The Committee
points further out the following two objects for the future conside-
ration of the Chamber and the Ministers—viz., first, whether the
members of the new church will have to continue to pay in the
meantime church.rate to the Roman Catholic Church ? Secondly,
whether they will continue to enjoy the same rights and privileges
as before the separation ?"

Madrid papers of the Ist instant state that the trial of
CORTINA, MADOZ, and others, said to have been implicated
in the insurrection at Alicante, had commenced, and excited
much interest. CORTINA is in Fn ►ce, but MADOZ was pre-
sent, and made a powerful detente of himself anti the other
persons accused. The trial was expected to last for some
day, and little doubt existed that all would be acquitted.
The Gazette contains the names of the new Councillors of
State, but with the exception of BRAVO MURILLO, DE BAL-
LISTEROS, DE CASTRO, and one or two more, they are un-
known to the English reader. Sir ROBERT INGLIS arrived
at Madrid on the Ist, and Mr. BULWER on the same day
resumed his official duties at the Court.

Some private transactions took place on the Bourse at 33

for cash.

Nearly all the Paris papers contain articles on the late dis-
asters in Africa, and the measures ad .pted by the KING in
Council for pursuing ABD-EL-KADER wherever he is to be
found. The opinions on this latter subject expressed by the
Journal des Debats we published yesterday. The Epoque,
the other Government journal, has also an article in a similar
style, announcing that the restless enemy of the French will
not be allowed to escape with impunity, even within the
frontiers of Morocco. Ne thing can be said against this; if
the EMPEROR cannot prevent the enemies of France from
taking shelter in his dominions, and issuing out when it suits
their purpose, he must take the consequence. This sort
of game the English Government submitted to with
most astonishing patience when the Canadian insurgents
and the American sympathisers made so many incursions
upon the inhabitants within the Canadian frontier. The
comments of the Paris Opposition journals are not at all
favourable to the policy of the Government, though they in
general approve of the determination to take vengeance on
ABD-EL-KADER, by dispatching an additional body of troops.
They all complain, however, that no official dispatches
of the deplorable events have yet been published. The
Constitutionnel, after attributing all these which have lately
occurred to the treaties of Tangiers and Lalla Magheria, says :
—"We must now repair the disaster, and destroy by a signal
vengeance the moral effect of the transitory triumph of ABD-
EL-KADER. Under these grave circumstances we will not say
a word concerning Marshal BUGEAUD or General DE Luna-
RICIERE which shall not be an expression of confidence in
these brave officers and the troops under their command.
We shall see what use will be made of the reinforcements
that are to be sent to Oran. For a year past
enormous errors, having sanginnary results, have
been committed. We must at least have the
courage to permit our troops to repair them." The Commerce
takes a more gloomy view of the state of affairs. "There is
not a single bulletin of victory in which the Duke D' ISLY
has not announced the definitive submission of the Arabs,
and the pacification of Algeria ; and yet insurrections do not
cease succeeding each other, and the whole is to be recom-
menced each time. He represented, some weeks back, the
horrible execution of the Debra as being of a nature to put
an end to insurrections, by striking the tribes with astonish-
ment, and now a new taking up of arms again contradicts
his anticipations; far from terrifying the Arabs, these cruel-
ties only excite them to vengeance, and the massacre of M.
Moscraorrac's troops is, perhaps, only an act of reprisal.
Colonization gets on no better than war; the Government is
for one system, and M. BUGEUAD fur another. During all
this time nothing has been done, and throughout this vast
territory we scarcely reckon six thousand colonists."
" Thus, then," exclaims the Courrzer Francais, " 100,000
of tr:e 1 troops are no longer sufficient to maintain tran-
quility in Africa. To our former sacrifices new ones must be

threatened with some very formidable peril. What,
then, is really going on? Has ABD-EL-KADER dethroned
Mumar ADDERRIIAMAN ? Does he dispose at present
with full authority of all the forces of Morocco ?
Or has the Moor, aware by the events of last year that
France may be laughed at with impunity, again lent to the
Emir the open aid of the forces of the empire ? If such be
the ease, why is the Ministry so unaccountably silent ?
Here it has been aware for some days of this information,

" The Abbe Ronge, accompanied by his brother and some
preachers of the German Catholic Church, arrived at Frankfort on
the 4th. and was received with enthusiasm. On his way to Frank-
fort he was received with acclamations by the people of Worms ;
and in some other places the inhabitants received him with the same
demonstrations as if he had been a sovereign.
" Don Carlos and the Princess de Beira left Marseilles for Italy
on Thursday morning. Although they started at an early hour,
several Spaniards of the Carlist party were in waiting to pay their
respects to the royal exiles.
" We learn from St. Petersburgh that the Emperor of Russia, as
another mark of his satisfaction at the bravery and skill of Prince
Woronzow, has given him the command of a regiment of hussars,
which is in future to bear his name.
" Count de Cancrin, formerly Minister of Finance in Russia, died
at Paulosh last month, after a short malady.
" The Privileged Gazelleof Bologna, of the 29th ult., announces
that the Pontiticaltroops re-entered Rimini at eleven o'clock in the
morning of the 27th ult., the insurgents having either embarked or
fled into the mountains on their approach. The accounts re-
ceived this morning at Bologna,' adds the Gazelle, state. that
the rebels dispersed in the mountains had been overtaken by the
Swiss troops, the carabineers, and the Custom-house officers on the
aide of Baize, in the legation of Ravenna, where they were routed
with the loss of some killed and wounded. In the meantime,
another band was met by the carabineers and the Pontifical volun-
teers, and the Custom.house officers at Badi, in the legation of
Bologna, and 14 revolters were disarmed and made prisoners by
the loyal troops.'
" The Ilainburgh Gazette states, from Riga, that the cholera
has appeared in Livonia, and caused many deaths.
" IVI. Chesnau, banker and mayor of Montoire, has just been
condemned by the Court of Assizes, Vendome. to a year's im-
prisonment, and a fine of 14,000 f, to the parties civiles, as
guilty of simple bankruptcy. His debts amounted to 1,200,000 E,
and his assets to 400,000 f. Several families have been involved in
ruin by this failure."

SHERIFFS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.
(Before Mr. Under• Sheriff BURORELL.)
MORGAN V. ALTREE.

This was an action brought to recover the sum of 5/. ls.,
the balance of an account for goods supplied. The plaintiff
was a wholesale cheesemonger, in Marlborough-street, and
the defendant is a shopkeeper.
The defendant pleaded payment.
Mr. Cnoucn, who appeared for the defendant, applied to
the Court on the subject of the costs, observing that, as the
plaintiff had withdrawn the record on the last occasion, he
was bound to pay the costs of the previous day before he
could go to trial, but, unfortunately, the judges' order was not
returnable till to-morrow, therefore, he hoped, that as the
costs had not been paid, the case would be adjourned.
The Learned UNDERSHERIFF said that he could not post-
pone the case on a question of costs—that must be settled in
the Court above.

Charles John Smeetham, assistant to the plaintiff, was
called, and proved the delivery of goods to the amount of
upwards of 10/. The last item in the account: was in
January, 1844, and in that month witness applied for pay-
ment of a bill of 5/. lls. 7d.

An attempt was made on cross-examination to show that
the plaintiff had passed through the Insolvent Court, but as
the fact had not been pleaded, the evidence could not be gone
into.

Mr. CROUCH then made a forcible address to the jury, and
said that he was by a technicality barred from putting some
material questions. He could, however, put in a receipt for
SL, dated some months later than January, and that must
consequently apply to the balance of 51. 3s. 11d. claimed in
January. The Learned Counsel put in the document as evi-
dence.
Mr. THomns for the plaintiff replied.
The UNDER-SHERIFF summed up, and the Jury found a
verdict for the plaintiff for the amount claimed.

MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were only
about 2,000 ba'es, including 300 for expert. 13rices were
nominally without alteration. There was but little doing
in Shares, and the market was very dull.
There was not any important sale of colonial or foreign
produce to-day, but it is satisfactory to be enabled to
state that the trade and commerce are in a most satisfactory
condition. We may notice officially the active demand
which continues to exist for wools, the produce of the
British Colonies, which are realising very fair, and full
prices. The purchases, too, are made almost exclusively for
immediate consumption. The same remark will apply to the
Indigo sales, that are now in progress. Much interest
is attached to the expose of the revenue returns for the present
quarter, which will be made public in a very few days.
Taking the reduction of duties into consideration, it is fully
expected that the resources of the country will be found to
have been most beneficially augmented in those items which
denote prosperity among the labouring population of the
United Kingdom. Folio% ing up the few remarks we made
under this head two or three days back, as to the
great cattle fair at Ballinasloe, it is with pleasure we are
enabled to state that the prices realised for Sheep and Cattle
exceed the most sanguine expectations of the flock-masters
and graziers. It is to be hoped that the agriculturists of
Ireland will take advantage of the present favourable con-
dition of the markets there as well as in England, to turn
attention to the improvement of their flocks and farms, and
thus reader their condition as good as it ought to be. It is
the opinion of practical men in this country that, with a
moderate degree of care and industry, the produce of the
Sister Isle might, in a low years only, be doubled.
There are no arrivals of the least importance in the City
to-day.
A good deal of business has been transacted in the Consol
Market to-day at prices varying from 98% to 98%. For
the Account the quotation has been most steadily main-
tained at 981,4. Exchequer-bills reached 50s. in the early
part of the day, but they are now at 48s. premium. India
Stock commands 266.
The Foreign Funds were in better demand to-day. Bra-
zilian reached 86, Danish 89 and 88. Mexican were sold at
31%, Peruvian at 38 and 37%, the Spanish Three per
Cents at 38%, the Deferred at 15%, and the Dutch Two-
and-a-llalf per Cents at 60%.
The Railway Share Market has been scarcely so firm upon
the whole as it was yesterday. The French lines continue in
request.

FIRE OCCASIONED BY THE SOLAR RAYS.-CAUTION
To HOUSEKEEPERS.—On Sunday last, about two o'clock in the
afternoon, a fire was providentially discovered in the house of Cor-
nelius J. Philbrick, Esq., surgeon, Mill.street, in this town. It
appears that in a bed-room with a southern aspect, a watercroft full
of water, standing on a dressing-table, condensed the calorific rays
of the sun to a focus on an embroidered mat, which ignited, as also
did another which adjoined it. The smell alarmed the inmates, and
caused a search, which led to the discovery of the burning mate-
rials, and the timely prevention of further mischief.—Worcester-
shire Chronicle.

FORMS OF INTEMPERANCE.—There is the intem-
perance of mirth, and then its victim is a silly buffoon; the intem-
perance of seriousness, and then he is a gloomy ascetic; the intem-
perance of ambition, and then he is the laurelled hero of a hundred
fights, a madcap poet :a mountebank statesman; the intemperance
of love, and then he is a good-for-nothing driveller; the intern.
perance of anger, and then he is a frothing madman ; the intem-
perance of dress and manners, and then he is a glittering fop ; the
intemperance of the purse, and then he is a sordid miser; the in-
temperance of the palate, and then he is a filthy glutton ; the in-
temperance of the bowl, and then he is a reeling drunkard.
DEATII FROM AN OVERDOSE OF LAUDANUM.—OD
Friday morning last, William Bailey, mechanic, of Lee-street,
Chorlton.upon-Medlock, died from having taken an overdose of
laudanum on retiring to bed the previous night. The deceased was
a man of intemperate habits, and had been accustomed to taking
laudanum as a stimulus; and there was no reason to suppose that
he had taken it in this instance with the intention of producing
death. At the inquest on Monday a verdict in accordance with
the above circumstances was returned. The deceased was forty-
five years of age, and has left a widow and children.—Manchester
Guardian.

THE WEATHER AND CROPS.—The heavy falls of
rain last week not only interrupted the operations of harvest, but
threw a gloom over the prospect which was entertained; of the
crop being secured in safe condition. Grain in the hands of dealers
was consequently held with more firmness, and higher prices asked.
The quantity of rain which fell in the course of the week was unu-
sually great. From six o'clock on Thursday evening to six on
Friday morning, there fell no less than an inch. The crop in stock
was thorougly soaked, but fortunately the atmosphere was so cold
as to preclude the risk of immediate danger from sprout. Since
Monday the cold has continued, the thermometer ranging from
42 to 46. The weather has been dry and breezy, however, and
so far favourable for cutting down that portion of the crop already
ripe, and although it has not ripened in the proper sense of the word
the later crops, it has to some extent deadened them, and so far
prepared them for the sickle. The grez.t bulk—indeed almost the
whole crop in this neighbourhood has been cut down, and much of
it secured. In the higher but not the latest districts, a good deal
has been stooked, but a very small proportion transferred to the
stackyard. In the latest corn-growing districts there will be no
general harvest for ten or fourteen days. In these circumstances,
at so advanced a period of the season, more or less of disaster may
almosq certainly be looked for; and in any event it is to be feared
that the present prices will at least be maintained.—Caledonian

Mersury of Thursday.
INTERESTING TO LONDON ANGLERS.—The roach
season being now at its height in the Thames, the river in the
vicinity of Richmond, Twickenham, and Teddington, daily exhi-
bits a scene of animation by reason of the great number of bank
and punt anglers constantly visiting those localities. Last Sunday,
at Richmond alone, in the preserve, and on its banks, about 200
Waltonians were assembled, to say nothing of the number of anglers
that were engaged higher up the river. Several piscatorial parties,
after walking to Twickenham and Teddington, found the boats and
punts pre-engaged, and were obliged to return to town without
having their fill of sport. The " takes" of roach and other fish
at the above.named places have, for some time past, been very
numerous, fine, and heavy.
WOOLWICH, OCT. B.—The Devastation steam-
frilate, Commander Kitchen, was paid off to.day at Woolwich.
The Growler steam.frigate, Commander F. H. Buckle, is discharg-
ing her stores, and will be paid off here. The crew and engineers
appear remarkably healthy considering that they have arrived from
the coast of Africa. The Ringdove sloop, 16, Captain Sir William
Daniel, is ordered home from the coast of Africa, and was to leave
Ascension about a week after the Growler, and will take 11.,me a
part of the crew and engineers of the Ardent steam-vessel, Com-
mander John Russell (b), ordered to be paid off, having been in
commission since the early part of 1841. The crew of the Ardent
have been very healthy, only one having died for a considerable

period. Several powerful 8-inch guns, weighing about 67 cwt., are
preparing in the Royal Arsenal for the Grampus, and others of
equal calibre and weight for the Nelson, and for service in the
Carnatic, and at Corfu.

BALLINASLOE FAIR, OCT. 6.—Monday was devoted
to the sale of the remnant stock of sheep, and to re-sales of former
purchases, many of which took place sit increased prices, whilst
there was a general rise of Is. 6d. or 2s. on the market of Satur-
day. From the immense number of horses of all kinds prancing
up and down through every street, one would fancy that the horse
fair had commenced. It does not, however, begin until to-morrow,
but many purchases were made at a general rise of no less than 25
per cent. on the prices of last year. A middling description of
horned cattle has already made its way into town, for which high
prices are asked. The number of sheep sold was 66,661 ; unsold,
2,922. Total, 69,563 ; showing a diminution of some 2,000 on
the number last year. Good chargers bring from 100/. to 1501.
and 1804 ; serviceable hunters, 801. to 120/., &c.; and steady
hacks, 40/. to 1001. In fact, the prices have been all through
extremely good for the seller. The average price of weddtrs

arrangediiithlee classes was as follows :—First class, 21. 13s. ;
second, 21. 6s. 6d. ; and third from 38s. to 21. Last year the
average prices were—First class, 21. 7s. ; second, 21.; and third,
11. 13s.

TWO MEN DROWNED IN A COAL- PIT.— _ n
Sun-
day evening last, ;two men, named Hugh Adam and William
M`Donald, lost their lives in the Wellington coal pit, at Aiillerhill,
near Dalkeith. The pit, we believe, is about 468 feet deep; and
being as yet unwrought, upwards of 120 feet of water had
been allowed to accumulate at the bottom. On the night in
question, the men whose names are mentioned above, along
with another individual named David Clunie, were sent down
the shaft for the purpose of stopping up an air-hole; and as
they did not calculate on being many minutes in accomplishing
this matter, they very carelessly and injudiciously descended
without their lamps. When they were about half-way
down, some derangement took place in the machinery at the
top of the pit, in consequence of which the bucket descended with
such velocity, that when it came in contact with the water it
canted over, throwing out the unfortunate individuals. Clunie
clung to the side of the pit, and got his head above the water; in
which position he remained till assistance reached him from above.
Adam and l'll`Donald were, however, instantaneously drowned.
The former had been 28 and the latter 16 years employed about
the works, and were respected for sobriety and steadiness of cha-
racter. We regret to add that each of them has left a wifo and
seven children to lament their irreparable loss.—Caledonian

Mercury.
CORONERS' CHARGES.—An important question has
arisen as to the costs of the inquest on the bodies of the unfor-
tunate persons who met their deaths by the falling of the Yar-
mouth Suspension Bridge. It appears that the coroner, contrary
to precedent where so many lives are lost, has charged for seventy.
nine inquisitions : coroner's fees, 1/. 6s. Sd. each, and jurymen's
and officers' fees. By the 7th Will. 4, and Ist Vic. c. 68, the
coroner is required, immediately after the inquest, to pay all fees
and charges before he can make out his bill to the county, &c.
In the present case the coroner, after the verdict was returned, ad-
journed the case, sine die, in order to adjust the claims for find-
ing the bodies, jurymen's fees, kc. (the last alone amounting to
251.) ; they have, however, never been recalled. It has been said
that Mr. Baron Alderson has expressly held that the authority of
the coroner ceases after such an adjournment. The coroner,
therefore, not having complied with the Act of Parliament, will
have his charges considerably curtailed, as the council cannot, on
that ground, even were they disposed, grant the extra 6s. Bd.,
and the question of the 11. for each will be decided at the quarter
sessions.

-DEATH OF AN IDIOT BY SUFFOCATION IN ST.
LUCE'S WORKHOUSE.—Yesterday afternoon, Mr. Baker held an
inquest at the Cumberland Head, City-road, on the body of Sophia
Pocock, aged twenty.two years, an idiot, who for some time
past had been an inmate of St. Luke's Workhouse. It
appeared, from the evidence, that nn Sunday last, the de-
ceased, who was in the lunatic ward, with others, had her
dinner, which consisted of brisket of beef and potatoes, it
was cut up in small pieces, as usual, by the nurse; whilst eating
which a piece of the beef stuck in her throat, and she became

........
black in the face and violently convulsed. The master of the work-
house, who saw the imminence of her danger before the arrival of
any medical gentleman who was sent for, used the tube of the
stomach pump and forced the meat from the gullet; but she died
before he succeeded in so doing. The jury returned a verdict of
" Accidental Death by Choking."
ILLEGAL NETTING IN TIIE THAMES, AND CONVIC-
TION op THE OFFENDER.—On Saturday last, Henry Dean, fisher-
man, of ID:d Brentford, was convicted before the Lord Mayor, upon
the information of water.bailiffs, John Milbourne and Thomas
Webb, for fishing with a net of an unlawful size in the mesh in the
Twickenham pt eserve early in the morning of the 30th ult. The
Lord Mayor corhietnned the act, and told the offender he should
fine him in the fua penalty of a on his next appearance on a
similar charge.
TESTIMONIAL. TO MR. T. lIOLT, OF VAUXHALL..
G RDENS.—Last evening the domestics of the establishment pre.
seined Mr. Thomas;' Holt with a splendid diamond ring, ai a token
of their estimation 7f the kind and liberal treatment they have ex.
perienced from that sentleman during the season, in his capacity
as treasurer of the 'Royal Property.",
