bllitaied bim in all bis civil rights tina. he
is eligible for seat in parliament, which is
the highest British exercise Of citizenship.
The truse-es express doubt whether, with
with due regard to the interests of his
numerous children On whom the property
IS en!.iIed, they can legally allow Mr.. O
BsIzs to resume and enjoy its life use
His wife, il sesms, died last juno, and the
trustees pretend that the property should
now be divided, share and share alike, be.
tween his seven children, and therefore
! anYe refused to make reconveyancs to
Mr.. SMITH O'BRIkS. Their application
in Chancery is 10 be relieved from the
trust, and new trustees sppointed-!he
rents aud profits, meanwhile, no. to be
collected By Mr. O'Bs1EN. but by receiy
er appointed by the court. The deed OF

tate by hesvy legal costs. Il is added
that he trustees hold political opinion,
precisely the reverse Of those for which
Mr. O'BRIgS risked his life, and eutfsred

Iuensing On this case, says, ''should the

is certainty Of heavy loss 10 him and
his children from the enormous expenses

man, We are sure, are with Mr.. O'BRIEs
in this trouble, coming from quarter
from which he had right 10 expect only

may be appended the fact that the London
Times actually advised the British govsrn-
ment to take measures to prevent the ss
tates coming back to O'BnIgE.

They were received at Southampton by
the officers of the Confederate steamer

Dreadful Colliery Accident.Two Hun

An accident buried two hundred persons in

G,,r,,;,n telecraphs on the 18th:
al have lust returned from Hartley New

hurried. The shaft has been closed up
through the huge beam Of the pumping
engine falling down the pit yesterday. 1t
carried the timber and the wood work down,
and thus blockaded the up and down cast
shafts. The falling timber killed five out OF
eight men who were being drawn upin cage
at the time. The men and lads working be-
low at the time Of the accident have been
buried forty-eight hours. notwithstanding the
greatest exertions to relieve them on the part
of the ablest men in the coal trade.
The working seam is filling with water, and
no doubt the horses, which are worth i've
hundred pounds, are already drowned. The
men and lads, however. could escape by means
Of ladder to the yard seam, which Is forty
nine fathoms higher and out Of reach OF wa
ter. Men have been heard trying to clear
the distractions in the shaft from below tor
night, and no doubt is entertained that they
are all out OF danger Of water at least.
Means have been employed for securing
good ventilation, and was assured by the
best authorities before Left tonight, tina
the strongest hopes may be entertained that
the ward seam would he reached and the men
and lads rescued before morning.
Great excitement prevails, and numerous
pit-men's wives have been at the pit mouth

The three men saved hung by the cage in
the shaft eight hours before they were res
