The poll has this day finally elos&d : —For the rate , 94 ; against 639 ; majority against 515 .
HTJDDEXL 8 FXELD . Court Lskt . —On Wednesday , the Court Leet of Sir J . Bamsden , Bart ., was held at Almondbury , for the purpose of swearing in the constables for the ensuing year . Aimondbury was first called , when Mr . Hiram Hailing , who had been chosen at a meeting of the ratepayers , to act as chief constable , was objected to on the ground that he was not a Churchman ; audalthoughhe pledged himself to do such duties as were required oy the office , it would not do . Mr . Thomas Lee was proposed , as being a Churchman , and was sworn in . Huddersfiela was next , when a letter was read from Mr . C . Graham ,
wishing to be excused , as he was holding two public offices at present . The Court granted his request ; aud Mr . Makin was proposed and sworn in for the ensuing year . The expenees , which used to be paid by the towns , are now obliged to go before the auditor of the Union , and without being subjected to a meeting of the ratepayers . The auditor will not allow any of the expencee of the Court , or of the specials , and many other such like ; therefore , all the underlings went away in dadgeon , having te pay for themselves . It will be a difficulty to get any one to stand in future unless reasonable expenees are paid .
MANCHESTER . Fatal Accident or the Ibwsxl . —Skvbt Meh Dbowkkd . —The Mersey ] and Irwell Navigation Company ( the Old Quay Company ) have had a number of men employed for some few weeks past , in deepening the navigation of the river from the New Bailey Bridge to Hunt ' s Bank . The earth , stones , and gravel got up by excavation and dredging , were removed in an ice-boat belonging to toe company—a square-sided boat , about thirty feet in length and fifteen feet in width , very shallow , being not more than about two feet from the gunwale to the bottom . This boat , laden with gravel , &c , had proceeded , on Monday evening last , from the place
where ihe excavations were progressing to Throstle Nest , about two miles lower down the rirer , where there is a weir , near the paper manufactory of Messrs . Smith and Ingle . On Tuesday morning , about six o ' clock , Captain Yates , the captain of one of the trading fiats en the river , then lying at Throstle Nest , and delivering ropes and oakum to the P&per manufactory , observed that the iceboat , wEicn had been made fast the preceding night before the men left it , was drifting away , lie accordingly hailed one of the Navigation Company ' s flats also lying near , and which indeed was used as a sleeping-cabin by the company ' s men , when staying at Throstle Nest . The captain of this flat ,
Arnold Clare , immediately proceeded with three or four navigators , to do what they could to stop the iceboat from drifting down the river , which was much swollen Jay the heavy rains , and the current was running strong . Before they could do anything , however , the ice-boat had drifted upon the weir . Cajtain Clare then put his fiat to the other side of $ he river , and moored her to a tree , and then got a small boat , took- * line to the iceboat , aad thereby attached the ice-boat to the fiat . Then he and three or four men , who we understand had been sleeping on board his flat , together with four others , wholiad just reached the place from Manchester , sot into the ice-boat , which was still
on the weir , and began very thoughtlessly and imprudently to lighten her , i > y throwing quantities of the earth and zravel , with which she was laden , into the weir-hole . The ice-boat thus becoming light , and there being , as we have stated , a flood in the river , in consequence of the rains , the oorrent dragged her onwards with so much force , Ikat the rope , by which the fiat was attached to the tree , broke ; and , of oourse , the ice-boat began her downward course over the weir . There were then upon this boat , including Captain Clare , nine men , seven of whom attempted to save themselves by jumping into the small boat by which they had been conveyed on board the ice-boat . Five of the seven
suooeeded in getting into the boat : but the other two , in their haste and confusion , fell into the river , and were , we believe , immediately swept over the weir and drowned . The five men in the small boat were also hurried over the weir ; the boat was capsized , aud all the men were drowned . Two men remained on board the ice-boat , having failed in getting into the small boat in time ; they were carried over the weir but very fortunately the now lightened boat came up again and righted , below the weir , and they , having clung fast to her , were saved . The alarm and dismay that the Shocking event caused
spread rapidly through the neighbouroood , and erery effort was made to recover the bodies without delay ; but we understand that some time elapsed before any of them were taken out of the water , and up to Tuesday evening , we are informed , only four had been found . They were got out of the water about two hours after the accident , and w % re < conveyed to the Britannia public-house , Or < JjRR £ f £ ane , Salford , where they will remain intiMJi *^^^***"> * " inquest has been held .

THE INFERNAL AND ACCURSED WHIG BASTILE , OR , NEW MODEL PRISON , Invmted bf Captain / ebb , ef ihe Royal Engineen , mad for which Government voted away £ 30 . of the people ' * money . " Grant me , indulgent heaven , that I may live To see the miscreanU fuel the pains they'd give ; Deal freedom ' s sasrad teeasure free as air , TU 1 slave and despot be but things which were . " ¦ ¦ :. Burns . Sir , —It is a common saying with the Chartists , that erery attempt which the " base , bloody , « nd brutal " faetion make to suppress the rising liberties of the peeple , by adding , torture to slavery , only tends to cive
the Charter another lift , and , thereby , hasten us on to the goal of freedom . If this be true , and , judging from pact events , I see no reason to doubt it , then must Chartism spread like wildfire now , and its sup . porter * become something more than Chartistswhich , by the way , it is high time they should , for we have a bastile erecting in England ( or rather , I should say , near London ) on the most horrid , revetting , and barbarous plan , and which ( hear it t ye lovers of mercy !) is to be a model for evert prison ( or Whig hell-hole ) that may , in future , be built in this enslaved kingdom . Yes , England ! so leng curst with kingcraft , qaeen-eraft ; and all the other devU-craft imaginable : England { so long " the admiration of the world , " ( for what we could never ton ) England I " the envy of
surrounding nations , " ( oh lor , ) " and the dread of them all , " ( the devil it is !) England ! so famed for her ingenious and starving sons of industry , ( for ingenuity and starvation walk baud in hand here ) , her bloated , idle , and pandering aristocracy ; her bigotted and intolerant clergy : her enormous , discontented , enslaved , and enslaving army ; her fat , greasy , detested , and every where despised police ; ( the mere creatures of a tyrant's will ); her " mild laws , " liberal government , " and " comfortable" hell-holes for the aged sons of toil , is at length to be adorned with an enormous , stupendous , and infamous bastile !! in which all the horrors of the Spanish Infuisition , and Venetian tortures combined , are to be enacted—not forgetting the Black-hole of Calcutta , which will be a principal feature In this accursed abode . In the form of " dark cells , " the " silent , " or driving men mad system , will be most rigorously adopted , the spies
having small loop-holes to peep at their victims without being seen by them ; they will net be able to do the slightest thing—no , not even sleep—without , perhaps , twenty spies laughing through tubes at them . There is to be no books whatever allowed the prisoners on any condition , and as they will be placed in separate cells , " exeroise" 1 n separate yards , of which there is to be 500 , and masked whilst passing one another to and from their cells , it will be impossible for them either to speak or see each ether , so that all might be reduced to skeletons by starvation , and each other would net be aware of it . Let who will be shut up , neither wife , children , or friends are to be allowed to see them ; so , men of England ! if any of your friends or relations should ever fall into this accursed trap ( the honest and virtuous being selected now ) prepare at the expiration of their term to receive a maniac , for it will be impossible for any person to keep their senses here .
Another barbarous feature in this refinement of cruelty will be , admitting the 500 victims in the bastile church , which is to be so constructed , that itjwould seem as though only the clergyman was In it , although he will be " standing the fire" of the 500 gazing ( that is if they be fools enough ) through holes , as children would at a penny puppet-show ; so much for the perfection of Whig cruelty and Liberal refinement in torture ( we can now make out why they call themselves "Liberal . " ) So much for the middle-class Reform and pot-house elected " patriots . " (?)
Let us , then , hope that from this time a new en will dawn in the political hemisphere—that this last barbarous act of the fiendish Whigs will be the means of arousing the people—aye , even the middle cssuesto a better sense of their duty ( for a man who really was awake to bis own , and hi * country ' s interest , which are one , would sewn to fall in a deep stupor the moment the agitator ( not turn-coat Dan ) had left him , as many of the Chartists do ) and exciting such feelings of detestation within their breasts as will make them insist upon having their rights in such a manner that no earthly power can withstand them . The site chosen by Goremment for their own pandemonium , is ntar the Chalk Road , leading from Pentonville to Holloway , and is adjacent to the Caledonian Asylum , and nearly opposite Copenhagen House ( a rural tavern and tea-gardens ) : it was begun last ApriL Villains , it is said , are always great cowards ; and if there was any doubt upon the subject , the dastardly

My cariosity being excited by what I bad wad la Weave ' s Gazette { ot the 17 th inftant ) , I visited the bastile this morning ( Oct 18 th ) , and coold aot , fosthe life of me , think but what Us Satanic Ma / sslf had some share in the construction of U ( and his spMt might be im a human form ) , as it looked the very fleian of devilism . There was the lofty towerln the fentre to ' spy around the country in ease of rebellion , and « T "" niifltHff loopholewindows , here , ther « , and everywhrn , both is the keepers lodges and prison , to fire upon the peopJsv should they ever imitate the laudable example of oW GaUic brethren with their Bastile . Let them not tea it : we snail not harm it ; and what ismore , we wotaS ; not harm it , either by fire or sword . No , it sfcsfl exist for the present , as a monument of disgrace b « th to the Queen and her Ministry . Foreigners shall see It —not one of them but what stall see and hear of it , and carry the tale to distant lands , there to harrow the feelings and excite the sympathies of both friends and relatives .

France , too , w il l hear of it , and feel for us : yes , the spirit of liberty is rising there , and none can stay it America , too , that free and happy land ; wQl weep as she reads of England—poor , ftUen , and battile disgraced England ! once the mistress of the worM , " but now the servant of them alL Peneveranee , however , can do much ; and if we look to our own strength , be true to our own cause , exert onr moral Influence , and put our trust in God , as we ought to do , what power to more invincible—what country so lovely , or what people be more fjree ; The bastile which to now rearing exists enly fob a tixk ^> be not startled , we shall not harm it ; but it most ; comb down after the passing of the Charter . Then * fere , let the Whigs give themselves no more trouble to build any mere , for it will be mere labour lost
-Wo would not have a bastile on our soil , either for poverty or crime . No , God forbid it ; and if I live , when we have obtained the Charter of ow liberties , I will move heaven and earth to obtain this end . As for Mr . Jebsy whose cruelty suggested the infamous design on which the infamous bastile to founded , I really pity him , and commend him to the prayers of all good Christians . As for those poor wretches , who , for the sake of lucre , have undertaken to rear this accursed fabric—pray for them also ; they know no God but Mammon , or they would never have undertook so iniquitous a job ; and , as
ror their slave *—their poor working slaves—good God I when I looked upon these heaven-forgotten creatures , striving , as it were , to win the approbation of the devil , by seeing which could build bis house first , I could but reflect upon the debased condition of man , ( rendered so , of course , by improper education ) , and wonder how any man could accept ot such employment Had either the Whigs , or their dastardly creatures , asked me to place even a single brick on this infernal fabric , I would have preferred the scaffold or the block ere I would have done it I remain , Sir ,
