REPORT ON COAL MINES

The commissioners " for inquiring into the condition of
children in mines and manufactories have issued their first
report, with two appendices. It contains the expose of a
most dreadful and extensive system of " slavery," such as
has no parallel in the world's history. We purpose in this
and succeeding numbers of the STANDARD to avail ourselves
of this heart-harrowing " report," in order to excite, if pos-
sible, throughout Yorkshire and the country generally, such
an " anti-slavery" feeling as shall at once compel the legis-
lature to put an end to it. In so doing, for the sake of bre-
vity, we shall confine our extracts generally to the labour in
" coal mines" in this and the neighbouring county of Lan-
caster ; as we feel assured that our charity would be worth
nothing if it did not begin at home."

The commissioners have ably summed up their report in
words, a part of which we extract by rendering our subse-
quent quotations the better to be understood. We find, say
they, from the whole of the evidence in regard to coal

mines .

" 1. That instances occur in which children are taken to
these mines to work as early as four years of age, sometimes
at five, and between five and six, not unfrequently between
six and seven, and often from seven and eight, while from
eight to nine is the ordinary age at which employment in
these mines commences.

HER MAJESTY'S FANCY DREM BALT

Ta describe such a scene as this magnificent and brilliant
fete presented, adequately, would be a difficult task. Even
to one accustomed to all the pomp and splendour of the
British court, as manifested on state occasions, it must have
excited both astonishment and delight ; it realised the live-
liest creations of the imagination, and presented as it were
the description of the ancient chroniclers bodily before us.
The dresses, as might naturally be expected, were of the
most magnificent description, and those which did not dazzle
with their magnificence, attracted the eye by their singula-
rity, or amused the fancy by their quaintness. It would be
quite useless to attempt anything like an enumeration of all
the costumes which deserved notice ; they were far too nu-
merous, and we must content ourselves with noticing such
as amongst such a gay and brilliant crowd forcibly attracted
the attention.

The leading feature of the ball was the assembling and the
meeting of the two courts of Anne of Bretagne (the Duchess
of Cambridge), and Edward and Phillippa (her Majesty anti
Prince Albert).

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT-SATURDAY.

TRIAL AND ACQUITTAL OF MARY GOOD AND GAM-
BLE.—At ten o'clock, on the arrival of Baron Alderson and
Justice Coltman, the prisoner Mary Good was placed at the
bar, and pleaded not guilty of having " comforted and main-
tained" the convict Daniel Good after the commission of the
murder.

On the jury being sworn,
The Attorney-General rose and addressed the court for the
prosecution. He said he was not justified in calling any evi-
dence to support the case, in consequence of it having been
clearly proved, by documents which were in court, that the
prisoner was the lawful wife of Daniel Good. He also begged
to state that there were many most respectable persons in
attendance to speak on her behalf; and her character, he
considered it his duty to state, up to the present time, was
irreproachable.
After some few observations by Baron Alderson,
The Jury acquitted the prisoner.
The prisoner was then indicted for receiving a piece of silk,
value ls. and other articles, well knowing the same to have
been stolen by Daniel Good. _

PICTORIAL MOREI,VOF ROME,

the once proud Mistress of theyrid ; compribing, amongst
its most striking features, the Icient Bridge and Castle of
St. Angelo, the Vatican, and Pontifical Palace, the Capital
di St. Spirito, and the vast and, marvellous edifice of St.
Peter's.

This magnificent representation has been constructed from
the most accurate Designs, by the most celebrated Artists of
the day. The delineations are so strictly accurate, and the
proportions so stupendous, as to offer a perfect realization of
those Wonders of Architecture which still render the Eternal
City the most interesting spot in the world.
At dusk, this novel exhibition will be seen under the
aspect which the scene presents during the rejoicing in cele-
bration of Il Giorno di San Pietro, when the whole vast
Edifice of St. Peter's is Illuminated, and every detail of the
glorious Architecture shines forth in lines of resplendent
light. It is on those festive occasions also that the celebra-
ted Girandola, or great FIRE WORKS of ST. ANGELO,
are displayed from the summit of the Castle, beyond all com-
parison the grandest display of Pyrotechnic Art ever invented,
being a fac simile of this GORGEOUS FESTIVAL. With
these will be given Cascades of Fire Fountains of Stars and
tremendous Flights of Rockets, forming a scene of the most
inconceivable magnificence ever attempted out of Italy.
Pyrotechnic Artist, SIGNOR SEMONA.
N.B.—Every possible care has been taken in forming a
first-rate MILITARY BAND, which, under the superin-
tendance of Mr. STUBBS, will perform during the Season.

EDUCATION COMMITTEE

In the proceedings of the Education Committee, it ap-
peared that the numbers on the books from the 29th of
August to the 27th of September were as follow :
North. South.
Established Church .... 613 502
Protestant Dissenters .. 211. lO4
Roman Catholics

887 659
The attendance from the 29th of August to the 29th of Sep-
tember was reported to be as follows :
North. South.
Boys.
Girls 194....
Infants lB3 l9B

634 521
Mr. SANDS (in the absence of Mr. Molyneux) moved the
confirmation of the proceedings.
Mr. BOLTON said it had appeared from the proceedings
that out of 1,536 pupils, there were only 116 Roman Catho-
lics. From the great number of Roman Catholics which
there were in the town of Liverpool, and the disproportion.
ate amount in the attendance at the schools, it was his
opinion that they had not that share of education which their
numbers as well as their poverty justified them in having,
and that no scheme of instruction in the schools, which could
be contributed for out of the funds of the corporation—which
funds were " for the public benefit of the inhabitants"—was
such as could meet with the approbation of the council when
it excluded the poorest class. He should not propose any
amendment ; but, as some members of the council who dif-
fered from him in opinion, had expressed a determination
to reconsider the question, he reminded that class, which he
hoped were numerous and would increase, that it was a duty
the public expected from them, and that he would endea-
vour to keep them to their promise.
The CHAIRMAN observed that there was no question of
the kind before the council.
Mr. EARLE said he could soon raise one.
Mr. PARKER said that as Mr. Bolton had given his indi-
vicival opinion upon the state of the schools, he would, upon
the same grounds, give his own opinion, an opinion which
was backed by the laws of the land and everything that was
valuable in the land.
Mr. EARLE.-Oh ! dear me.
Mr. PARKER thought, after the statements of counsel
heard upon the last day, that the subject would never be
agitated again ; and he presumed that Mr. Bolton's opinion,
when it came, as it did, in contact with that of the first men
in the country, must fall to the ground.
Mr. EARLE said that the Education Committee were act-
ing diametrically opposite to the government of the country.
The CHAIRMAN said the question before the council was
the confirmation of the proceedings. There was no question
before it with regard to the propriety or impropriety of the
mode of conducting the schools. (Hear, hear.)
The discussion was then dropped, and the proceedings
were confirmed.

WATCH COMMITTEE

The proceedings of the Watch Committee embodied the
head-constable's report on the late fire. The proceedings
also embodied a resolution of thanks to James Lawrence,
Esq., Chairman of the Watch Committee, for his great ex-
ertions at the fire : also, a resolution expressing high appro-
bation of the conduct and exertions of Mr. Whitty, the head-
constable, and others, during the late fire. The report spoke
approvingly of Mr. Asblin's plan of extinguishing fires, and
referred it to the consideration of the council. The proceed-
ings further comprised the appointment of assessors for the
lighting and cleansing for 1842-3 ; the appointment of col-
lectors of the lighting, cleansing, and fire-police rates in the
parish of Liverpool; the appointment of collectors of the
lighting and fire-police rates in the out-townships ; and the
laying of the usual fire-police rate
-for 1842-3.

Mr. PROCTOR moved their confirmation.
Mr. G. IL LAWRENCE seconded the motion, and ex-
pressed his conviction that the council would feel happy in
paying his namesake that compliment for his exertions at
the late fire which the committee had already done. (Hear,
hear.)
The TOWN-CLERK said, it would be necessary, according
to the provisions of the late act, that notice of the intention
should be given twice in some newspaper before any tire-
police rate could be made.
Mr. JAMES LAWRENCE moved that the requisite notice
be given.
The motion was agreed to, and the proceedings were con-
firmed.
