R.„A •
W. Acoanat.—Saturday evenings an Inquest
was held in this tows, before Mr. Weatatay, on view
of the bodies of Mr. Innen, pump-maker, of Chapels
.street, and Thnmas Rutter, his wotkman, whose deaths
occurred under the following citeumstences :.—On the
preceding day (Friday), at warn Mr. lotion and his man
-were engaged in drawing up some pomp-trees from a
well in Camden-street; and Rutter having descended
for the purpose of affising a rope remind the lower end
of the top tree, the foul air so affected him that he lost
his hold and fell. Mr. Inston instantly lowered the rope
to him, but Rutter was so overpowered that he could
not take hold of it. At this time only a boy was on the
spot, and Mr. Inston then descended to give the man
assistance, which he so tar effected as to raise him oat
of the water, when he also became overpowered, and
requested to be drawn up. The boy immediately game
an alarm to some persona who were at work at a little
distance, but before they reached the spot Mr. Inston
had left his hold, and, with Rutter, was precipitated to
the bottom. Half an bout elapsed before assistance
could be proensetd,.when another pump.maker, named
Caswell, who was at wos k at a short distance, descended
the well,and after some difficulty brought up both the
bodies. Mr. Leedsam, jun. arrived at the instant, but
too much time had elapsed for his professional endea-
vours to have the least effect. The bodies were then
removed, to await the coroner's inquest. Mr. Inston
has left a widow and one child ; Rutter bad also a wife
and child. They were both in prime of life.--The Jury
baiting heard the evidence, returned a verdict of “ Ac.
cideatal Death."—Bieitieghinst Casette.

not think that the defendant bad been dismiued from
the army without investigation. He had seeQ %within
objectionable to she defendant's character as an officer
for CIO last twenty years, except his conduct to Colonel
Arthur. He could not say that when he was is com-
mand he had ever i,sued a commission like that of Gt..
neral Fuller to Colonel Arthur, but he had appointed
many officers to special services without an instrument
half so foimal. His Grace then entered into an expla-
nAtion of the reasons why he did not think it tight to,
re-open at the Horse Guards the investigation into Mr.
Bradley's conduct.
Colonel Bradley.—How did General Fuller get ac-
cess to my communications at the Horse Guards?
The Duke of Wellington.—When I first got this let-
ter from Mr. Bradley, I thought I ought to keep it
secret. I communicated it to nobody, till I heard that
it had been published in all the newspapers. I was ask-
ed by one of the parties libelled whether I had ever re-
ceived such a letter : but till it was determined that you
should be prosecuted, I never showed it to any body.
Colonel Bradley.-1 requested your Grace, as Com-
mander in Chief, to order General Conran and General
Smitii to attend this day in Court : may I ask whether
your Grace has done so?
The Duke of Wellington.-1 cannot summon officers
of the army to attend here: that is a power belonging
to this Court. All I can do is to give them permission
to attend, and that I did to the officers you mentioned.

Several other questions were asked of Grace, but
none of them weie material. _ _

The ATTORNIT Gu=ns[., in reply, said, that this
case was one calculated, as they might see, to excite
deep compassion. Not one word that Colonel Bradley
had si.oken, nor one witness that he had called, had
the least bt aring on the question at issue in the cause.
The Jury said they would save his Lordship the trou-
ble of summing up, and returned a verdict, finding the

CASE OF A MAN STUNG TO DEATH SY Bus.—M.
F. BERTRAND, a man 34 years ot age, and of a good
constitution, was inforrond that one of his principal be:.
hives has( blown down ; he hastened to the spot in a
loose undress, and endeavoured to replace it. He was
immediately attacked by a number ot bees; they fixed
upon his chest and face, and caused considerable pain.
He ran from the spot, but the bees pursued him to the
house, and continued to sting him. They were soon
driven away, but he declared that he felt himself dying,
and fell down almost immediately. He was found by
M. C. de Lalfayette, stretched upon a mattress, pale, and
breathing feebly and interruptedly.His pulse was scarcely
perceptible, and the surface of his body was cold. Fear-
ing that this alarming state arose from impending suffo-
cation, and that a bee might have entered the trachea,
the operation of tracheotomy was performed, but in
vain; the unfortunate gentleman died almost instantly,
and not mow than ten minutes after the receipt of the
injury. No examination of the body was made. If
such an accident had occurred in our own practice, and
we had had to contend with the symptoms above men-
tioned, we should, without hesitation, have given any
diffusible stimulus that happened to be at hand. A case
occurred at St. George's Hospital, some years ago, in
which the sting of a single bee proved fatal.—London

some of those dealers in figures, who have atempted to

Thursday arrived the Arab transport, Lieut. Basden,'

luirkit duty in this garrison. The Arab left
on the 2d of September?, whom a l relieve/kiss was
going on with tranquil prosperity. A greater number
of emigrants, principally from the North of Ireland.
had arrived out this season than in any preceding ; some
had gone into the United States, but the greater num•
her had distributed themselves in the Upper Provinces,
whilst some hundreds had obtained employ in the new
grand Canal, which is forming between Kingston and
the Ottowa ; so that, considering the great influx of
pauper emigrants, no great degree of distress was anti-
cipated in the approaching winter season. With respect
to the staple article of trade at Quebec, we understand
that the quantity of timber shipped this season for Eng-
land was materially smaller than it had been during
the three preceding years, in consequence bf the over-
trading having created a large stock on hand, in the
great English markets, and that only five new ships
had been launched this year; but still, things had so
accommodated themselves, that but little mercantile
embarrassment was felt, and the industrious labourer
had not' wanted employ. We do not hear of any ship-

to gold were also found in his pockets, and this sum, it appeared,
hod been stein: from Mr. Llewellyn 's house. • •
The following is a statement of the circumstances attending the
apprehension of Thomas Chad, who is a very young man. About
the time his fellow prisoner was taken into custody, Chad walked
into a chandler's shop in the neighbourhood where the burglary was
committed, with a pistol in his hand; •he asked to purchase some
tobacco, when the shopkeeper perceiving thew-cepa, and having
just heard of the robbery that had berm committed at his neighbour's
house, detained the young man until a constable was sent for, into
whose custody he was given, when the pistol was found in his pos-
seesion.—On being questioned respecting the I, the prisoner de-
clared that his mother, who lives in W er, had given it to
him on the morning of the day he was apprehended% fur the pur-
pose of taking care of. The prisoner's assertions were confirmed by
his brother and his uncle; and the Other prisoner, Iron, disclaimed
any knowledge whatever of the young man.—The prisoners weft
remanded till Saturday.'

FATAL ACClDZNT.—Yesterday afternoon, as a poor
and helpless old woman was crossing Oxford Street, at
the St. Giles end, a gentleman's carriage ran oter her,
and killed her on the spot. The body of the poor crea-
ture was conveyed to the workhouse of St. Ann's, Soho,
where it now lies io be identified. Scarcely had thb
above melancholy accident taken place, and within a
few yards of the same spot, when another old woman,

In consequence of the overflow it the large ditch round that build-
ing, have been obliged to let the masts empty themselves into the
river. The Cervelmors of the Trinity Vogel ezpostulated against
thispractice, as calculated to raise impediments in the river to the
prejudice of the navigation, hat the tvscuations still took place, and
they proved to be excessively oleos in fact, the common sewers
emptielthenuelves into the ditch, various parts of the metro-
pails, so copiously, that it often became necessary to turn the Con-
tents into the Thames. The water of the immediate neighboorbood
became of course very impure, on account of the vas accumulation
of filth from that very populous pan of the town. Some years -
it was the practice of nightema to drive their cart beads into
country to be used as manure. This plan had been, however,
great measure discontinued, and the nlghtmen emptied their carte
into the common sewers, so that the Thames was sure to receive all
manner of offensive matter. This was quite enough to raise fears
for the health of those who drank of water subject to such polluticm
—an objection which was certainly meth treater Lan the other,
that of the obstruction to the navigation, although the latter was
itself sullicient to demand invistigatl..n. The authorities at
Tower insist upon their right to empty the ditch into the Thames,
as common sewers are emptied into their ditch instead of the
Thames direct, and they intend to persevere In this course. In ap-
position settle Trinity House and the Corporation. Has Lordship
intimated his belief that the decision upon the tight must in all pro-
bability be decided in a Court of Law.

COUNTY QUARTER SESSIONS.

RIOT AT BALBRIGGAN.—Saturday being the day
appointed for the trial of the persons charged with
being concerned in the riot in Balbriggan last Summer,
during the county of Dublin Election. At an early
hour the Court House at Kilmainham was crowd-
ed in every part, the front gallery was filled by
Ladies of distinction and other respectaisle females.
—The Chairmati tok his seat at 11 o'clock, when
!George Alexander Hamilton, Esq. the late candidate
for the county of Dublin, Henry EMS, Esq. John Grat-
tan, Edward Irwin, Thomas Daleand Richard Bissett,
were arraigned at the bar, charged with having on the
25th of June last, with other persons, disturbed the
peace of our Lord the King, and having created a
riot, tumult, &c. icc. to the great terror of many of
his Majesty's subjects; they all pleaded "loot Guil-
ty," after which Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Ellis took their
seats near their Counsel. Many witnesses were ex-
amined for apd against the defendants, and at nine
o'clock the Chairman charged the Jury at some length,
who in a few minutes brought in a verdict of Guilty
against all the prisoners, excepting Mr. Hamilton and
Mr. Ellis. The Bench having consulted fur some time,
the Chairman said, had the rtm,been committed at any
other time but during an election, where parties were
heated on both sides, the punishment should have been
heavy; but the Bench taking into consideration the
time when the occurrence took place, the sentence was,
that they should be imprisoned for ten days.

The Learned Counsel concluded by insisting that, under

as a caw only requiring nominal damages, which, in
his opinion, would,bw even too much.

Islands, New Zeabsed—served on board the vessel for
ten months—was then, as is customary, re.landed at
the Bay of Islands, baring been very useful on board
the vessel, and having himself killed two whales, and
thought his services were worth 61. per month.
The services of the plaintiff was clearly proved.
The Captain of the vessel was called to rebut the
evidence give", and to prove that the plaintiff was
merely taken on board at his own particular request,
and to be found in meat and drink only. The Captain,
however, being inteleited in the result, his evidence
could not be received.

InISH ♦ESTRIAS.

Lord KING held a Petition from the Catholics of
Ireland, signed by Lotd Killeen, Sir F. Osborne, Mr.
O'Connell, and many other most respettable catholics,
complaining of the exactions practised on the property
of Catholics by Protestants at their will and pleasure,
and with scarcely any check on the part of those who
were fi,rced to pay. Protestant Vestries In fact voted
away sums, nineteen parts of which out of every twenty
were paid by Catholics, who were prevented by the
state of the law at the same time from having a voice
on the question. It was true that an Ar.t had been
passed some years ago for the relief of the Catholics,
but instead of relieving, the Petitioners said that it had
aggrieved their situation. It gave them a right of
peal, but that right could not be exercised without sects-
rity to the amount of 1001. having b. en previously fur-
ttished, which inmost cases rendered the appeal nuga-
tory. The exactions carried on under that Act would
be incredible if they were not recorded in Parliamentary
Returns before their Lordships. It appeared from those
Returns that in the parish of St. Thomas's, in Dublin,
the annual charges authorised by a Protestant Vestry,
and chiefly paid by Catholics, were—for Sacramental
wine, 281. Its. for a Sexton, 501. for a Beadle, 201. to
the ltev. John Field and tl,e Rev. John Copeland, for
early service, 501. each ; and for two old women to
attend early service, for it appeared that no congrega-
tion could be procured without paying ft..r it, about as
much. In other parishes 1001. and even 1501. a year
were charged for ea:ly service, and 591. 1 ls. 81. for
sacramental wine. The iron gates of the Cathedral of
Lismore had in six years cost 4981. and salaries of 601.
or 701. were paid to organists, with minor one; to as-
sistants, nineteen parrs of which came out of the pockets
of Catholics. Indeed those Vestries, instead of endea-
vouring to make the expense small, seemed to do every
thing in their power to make it large.
The Bishop of CHESTER admitted with the Noble
Lord the impropriety, that a large majority of Catho•
lies :honk, be taxed by a small Protestant minority
without having any check upon that taxation. If there
were no effectual check, there should b: one. For,
from his ow•n exp. rience as a Clergyman in this country,
he knew that jobs of the kind alluded to were m• re
frequent than they ought to be. He had looked over
the large vo ume on the table, however, and as far as
he could judge from the general amnia levied, the
instances of abuse most be few, though souse there
were which could hardly be accounted for. Some of
the observations made by the Noble Luid were is ap-

His Majesty the King of Sardinia, by a decision of the 20th of
this month, has ordered that the author: of a scandalosatscene which
took place at Annecey on occasion of some burials, shall be con.

Vice-General of Dublin, took possession of the College of &cals.

at which Cardinal Berlasoli has been nominated Protector.
The Quatidieissie says, that it is just now reported, and that
the thing appears to be certain, that there will be no war be-
tween Spain and Portugal. We have long since announced this
result to that Journal, which has constantly endeavoured to per.
suad: its readers to the contrary: One of the reasons which that
Journal new alleges, in support of this opinion, is, that the house
of Rothschild is going to form an establishment at Lisbon, which
iliac house certainly would not do if it believed in hostilities.
The Journal du Crienneree says, that it is very seriously proposed,
