PUBLIC DINNER TO JOHN O'CONNELL, Esq., M. P.—A public dinner was given at Liverpool, on Saturday, to John O'Connell, Esq., Member of Parliament for Athlone, to afford an opportunity of ascertaining the public feeling in Liverpool, on the repeal of the legislative union between England and Ireland. The result does not tend to inspire much hope in favour of the agitation. EXTRAORDINARY OCCURItENCE.—In the afternoon of Wednesday week, the inhabitants of Old Basford were is a state of excitement and consternation unparalleled within the memory of its oldest inhabitants, with the exception of the day when the murder of Greensmith's children by their parent gave such a shock to the minds of many that months could not eradicate. Upon inquiry we learnt that about half-past four of the day already mentioned, Mr. Herbert Twells, a shoemaker, observing that the curtains in the house ar.d chamber occupied by Richard Rose, framework-knitter, and his wife, from whose residence he lives several hundred yards, were not drawn, he informed his wife, who instantly sent one of her children to inquire of one of Rose's neighbours whether they had been seen during the day ; the child bringing word that no one had seen either Mr. or Mrs. Rose, Twells and his wife proceeded to the house, and perceiving the key to be in the house door, they were sure that some dire disaster had befallen them, and immediately forced open the door. On entering the house there was not any smoke but a strong smell of sulphur pervaded it. On opening the door which led to the chamber the smell of sulphur was stronger, and on entering the room it was intense. They were now horrified at discovering Mrs. Rose lying in bid with her head over the bed-stock; from her mouth a large quantity of froth had issued and was still issuing. Her husband was still insensible. The eyes of Rose were closed, but one of his wife's was partly open. Their countenances presented a ghastly and death-like appearance. On Monday Rose and his wife were removed to the Union Poorhouse in a light tilted or covered cart, but so much was the poor fellow reduced, that he was obliged to be carried from his residence to the conveyance in a blanket. Mrs. Rose, however, was so much recovered as to be able to walk from the house to the cart. 'She was about 38 years of age, and her husband 29. They bad no family. The accident arose in the following manner :—On Tuesday night Mis. Rose complained of being itaheee,sttionmdaheehr;rehweerdhauscbilnid_ ma deal ing- twelve or fourteen pounds.
