THE principle on which the afes arc rendered

The most recent to was made on the 13th June, 1850, in the
Islington Old M et, in the presence of the Mayor and
numbers of G emen of the Professional and Commercial
classes of ' erpool. The Chest, containing papers, a .4'50
Bank No , a .e 5 Bank Note, and a Silver Watch, a Parchment
Deed, with four seals attached, after having been exposed to a
severe fire, consisting of 40 cwt. of coal and other combus-
tibles for three hours, was removed and opened; the whole of
the contents were found perfect, the Watch indicating the
exact time. A second trial, for an hour, took place, and with
the same result. A Gold Watch (deposited by a Gentleman, a
casual visitor) and several other articles of value were restored
to their respective owners as perfect as before the test, and the
Parchment Deed, with the four seals, was quite perfect, the
impression of the wax being as perfect as when first deposited
in the Chest. The foregoing facts are testified by the signatures

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

DONCASTER ST. LEGER.—The prophecy of John De
North in the Doncaster Gazette of Friday is as follows :
Voltigeur the champion over a field of ten, and if Pitsford
secures second place, Cyprus, Chatterbox, and The Bee-
hunter will lay close upon his wake.
The Aberdeen Journal says that L. Edmonds, Esq„
one day last week, shot eleven fine stags in Glencallater,
Braemar. They had strayed from the herd and got bewil-
dered, and he brought them down in nearly as many shots.
QCOMNG MATCH FOR £2oo.—The great quoitin'g
match. for £2OO and the championship took place on
Tuesday week, at Carlisle, between Charles Haywood, of
Oldham, near Manchester, " the Lancashire pet," and
John Rennie, of Alva, in the South of Scotland, " the
Highland gymnastic chief." The match closed, after
some of the finest play ever witnessed, in favour of
Rennie, by 16 shots, he having scored 41 to Haywood's
25. The quoits were never from the hob, frequently
closing it up, apparently putting off all chance of obtain-
ing a shot; yet these "closers" were frequently put out
by both men.

SOUTH LANCASHIRE STEEPLE CHASES.—These races
will take place on Wednesday, November 27th, over the
Newton Course. There will be three races, the first
being a Free Handicap Hurdle Sweepstakes of seven sovs.

PERIODICALS. FOR THE MONTH

The Botanical Magazine (Curtiss's) contains figures
of Bolbophyllum Lobbii, Medinilla magnifica, Portlandia
breviflora, Nymphtea micrantha, Coccoloba macrophylla.
The letterpress is, however, wanting, in consequence of
the illness of Sir Wm. Hooker. _

Hooker's Journal of Botany leads us another stage of
Mr. Richard Spruce's interesting journey on the Amazon.
A capital plate spews the process of making rice-paper,
and the rest of the number is made up of numerous inte-
resting contributions.
Maund's Botanic Garden and Fruilist is illustrated
with well-coloured representations of the rose, Geant des
Batailles ; two fine flowering trees, Cratsegus tanaceti-
folia and Euonymus latifolius ; a variety of the pretty
Chenostoma polyantha, and the Bess Pool Apple.
Sowerby's English Botany progresses well ; the Se-
dums, Catchflys, Oxalises, and Agrostemma, are beauti-
fully represented in the present part.
The Gardener's Magazine of Botany.— Twenty or
thirty articles from the best hands on horticultural sub-
jects,. illustrated by beautiful plates of fruit and flowers,
and numerous highly-finished wood-cuts, render this al-
together one of the most pleasing and valuable works on
horticulture we have ever seen. The sterling matter and

THE LitittlitiOL sTANDAitt

But you have as yet done neither. You have ado',

a widely different course, and are, in my opinion, at this
moment, in practical rebellion against both your Queen

and your conscience

The one requires you to acquiesce in the existing state
of the law, quietly and loyally ; but you are disobedient,
declaring and publishing and circulating chat it is at vari-

ance with the law of Christ

The other requires you not to do evil that good may
come ; but you are disobedient, holding your offices and
emoluments under the existing state of the law (which
yourselves have pronounced to be at variance with the
er, I law of Christ) in the hope of prevailing

N. .g eventually upon
some members of the Legislature to endeavour to obtain
some amendment of the law.

You seem to feel that your consciences require some
relief, and indeed Ido not wonder at it. For this relief,
you have put forth a statement of the sense in which you

understand the supremacy of the Crown. It is a curiosity.
You admit " a supreme civil power over all persons and
causes in temporal things, and over the temporal accidents
of spiritual things." This quaint expression is, I suppose,
derived from the distinction between matter and the acci-
dents of matter, in which Romish divines so freely in-
dulz

the subject of transubstantiation. Whatever may have

been intended by it, it fails to convey any clear and defi-
nite idea of your meaning. But whatever that meaning

WITCHC

,RANT IN TIPPERARY.—The following has Jost
occurred in Roscrea. A little girl aged six years, named
Mary Anne Kelly, has been for six months past in a
dying state. An old hag, who professed to be a " fairy
woman," persuaded the parents of the child that it was
" fairy struck," and offered to cure her if they would
comply with her directions. They agreed, and the child
was to be placed on a shovel at night, in the open air in
ist the name of the d-1, after having a prayer said over it.
„i In the course of the night the mother was to say to it,

•
" Mary Anne, if you are able to come in, do so." This
was done for three nights in succession, on the last of
of which the child died. While enduring the cold of the
nights the cries of the little sufferer were most piteous ;
and who can but wonder that a woman, and that woman
a mother, should not be softened by the distressing cries
of the child of her bosom, who was an idiot, had been
born blind, and although six years of age had never
walked ! The mother and doctress have been committed
for manslaughter.

EXTRAORDINARY CREDULITY.—A woman, named
Millikin, has for many years been practising upon the
credulity of silly women, in Belfast and its neighbour-
hood, by making them believe that, if they gave her
money, she could, by digging a small hole in the earth,
muttering some words, and making the sign of the cross,
order guineas to come up, ad libitum. She has always
, some plausible reason ready to account for her want of
success, and more money is required. In this way she

has been practising Imo!

s, from

one of whom, Anne Telford, she managed, within a short
period, to get the sum of £2 ss. 6d. Telford, finding
that no gold was coming, and having pawned almost every
article of clothing she possessed to satisfy the demands of
this woman, made her master acquainted with the facts,
who had Millikin arrested and brought before them on

Dr. Putnam confirmed near, conversing with him, while the

dead body, next attracted her' attention. She surmised,
and that correctly, that it was the blood of her unfortunate
nephew, who, she thought, had wounded himself, and
then fled from the house into the plantations adjacent to
it. She tracked this second stream of blood to the closed
door of

a pantry adjoining the kitchen, but not opening
into it. On pushing open this door, which was merely
closed to, but not fastened, she found him bathed in blood,
and just expiring. He never spoke, and died in a few mi-
nutes. Nothing is known of the proceedings of Dr.
Creighton after his leaving his aunt's room, beyond what
the position of the bodies indicated. There was no wit-
ness to it, the servant man having gone for milk for
breakfast. From the situation and position of Miss Faris's
body, it is supposed-that when the murderer entered the
kitchen, she was in the act of stooping to take up the teapot
that stood before the fire ; that he seized her by the hair,
and dragged her head forcibly backward, and then in-
flicted the wound that all but separated the head from
the trunk. The second stream of blood indicates that he
inflicted the fatal wound on his own throat while stand-
ing beside her body, and then walked out of the kitchen
and into the pantry, where his body was found. They will
both be buried in the o.

VISIT OF THE LORD LIEUTENANT TO BELFAST•--On
Thursday last hisexcellency arrived at Belfast from Garron
Tower, the marine residence of the Marchioness of Lon-
d°liderrY, and after partaking of lunch at General Bain-
brigge's (whose guest he was during his stay in Belfast), he
received the address of the mayor and town council of the
borOugh. His Excellency then visited the splendid esta-
blishnient of Messrs. Sadler, Fenton, and Co., in the
White Linen Hall, where he was greatly delighted and
surprised at the large and varied stock which was sub-
mitted for his inspection, in the course of preparation for
the home and foreign markets. His Excellency after-
wards proceeded to view the General Hospital, the Ragged
School, the York-street Flax Spinning Mill, the School
of Design, and various other manufacturing establish-
ments, and closed the day by attending a grand banquet
given by the mayor and corporation. Friday was employed
in receiving7the address of the bankers, merchants, and
others, and in visiting the public institutions of the town.
His Excellency returned to the Viceregal Lodge in the
course of Saturday. His Excellency having intimated
his desire to pay a visit to the premises of Messrs. Rich-
ardson, at Glenmore, immediately on returning from
Cregagh toßelfast, proceeded to the Ulster railway sta-
tion, where a special train was in readiness to convey him

they should have taken care that they were not imposed

rightly imputed !
By a small stretch of the substance of Mr. Hornby's

speech, your contemporary comes to the fictitious conclu-
sion " that the regulation rates were, before determined

Is this a fair way to alter the real value of the property
in which many of our fellow-townsmen have invested
their whole capital ? One of the clauses in the new regu-
lations requires that a coach shall be four feet six inches
(inside) across : if this was to be enforced, I believe every
coach in Liverpool, with one exception, would be con-
demned as contrary to law I The regulation with regard
to cars, though with more exceptions, would effect the
same unjust and serious results.
