CATHOLIC APPAIRS.—There was yesterday a very re;
spretable and numerous meeting of Catholic Gentlemen,
for the purpose of making prelirninarT arrangements,
preparatory to the Aggregate Meeting. Sir Edward Bel-
lew was called to the Chair. A motion passed unani-
mously, that a vote of thanks to Mr. Plunkett should be
submitted to the Aggregate Meeting. It was also
agreed, after a discussion of some length, in which
Mr. Hugh O'Connor, Mr. O'Connell, Mr. O'Gorman,
Mr. Shiel, Mr. Howls+, and other Gentlemen took part,
that an Address to the King should be also proposed to
the Aggregate Meeting. A. Committee having been ap-
pointed to draw up the Address, and thanks being voted
to the Chairman, the Meeting adjourned. It was the ge-
neral impression, that no attempt should be made to re,
produce a discussion on the Catholic Question in Par: ...-
ment,—(Orbfin Morning Post. Tlturrday.)
PARLIAMENTARY RIMORM..—Proma comparison of the
minorities on Lord John Russell's three motions for Par-
liamentary Reform, it appears that of the 124 members
who supported that question in 1821, there are 10 whose
names do not appear in either of the subsequent divisions;
and that of the 164 in 11322 27 (besides two paired otf)
were not in the division of 1823 ; so that no less than
2O members of the present House of Commons have,
within the last two years, voted for a reform of Parlia-
ment. _ _

PaoYIOCNTIIL ESCAM—Yesterday evening, about 6
o'clock, as several voting children were gazing at the hu-
mours of the May-day Chimney-sweeps, a hackney-coach
passing struck down a little boy of about four years old.
the son of a man of the name of Reed in the employ of
Mr. Moody, Lamp Maker, Great Sutton Street. The
child fell on its face, and one of the fore wheels passed
completely over the vertebrae of the neck. The infant
was instantly caught up by a young man in the crowd.
and conveyed to the house of Mr. Shepherd, the sign of
the Sun, corner of Little and Great Sutton Street. Mr.
S. in the anxiety of the moment, exclaimed, " it must
be taken to the hospital ;" on hearing which, the child
exclaimed, " I won't go to the doctor's," and began to
bewail only the loss of its marbles. Most singular to
say, the only injury it received wu a slight scratch on
the lip, which bled a few drops.
ELISANT GLASSES, FURNITURE, ate.—The Nobility and
Gentry are invited to inspect the Ware-rooms of COOPER
