' . « . The Secretary having received no nominations to fill np the vacancies in the Committee , except for Messrs .

      y , A rrangements were entered into for the Public Meeting at the John-street Institution , on the 3 rd , to review the Queen ' s Speech . After the disposal of other business , the following address was unanimously adopted , and the C ommittee adjourned to Feb . 4 th : — THIRD ADDRESS OF THE NEW EXECUTIVE OP THE SATIOSAL CHARTER ASSOCIATION . FaiEsna , —It is irksome to have to address you week after week upon the subject of finances ; but the duty is imperative . These perpetual appeals have been heretofore a serious source of discouragement to Chartism , and we hope that in future aU occasions of this nature will be avoided . In future all expenditure should be made out of monies sub . scribed in advance . As it is , we mus t deal with our difficulties without hesitation . OuMsiog , « s we do , the errors

      ofpouticians , we must not lay ourselves open to counter imutttationsfrom them . Those tradesmen who have trusted the Executive must have no occasion to complain of the con-^ SaS a ^ dfn ^ nnstocall a Convention This step requires consideration as well as means . We do not want a mere talking assembly , but an acting and devising one . Organisation requires to be matured within our own tanks When this is well begun—it can hardly be said to have useful work

      exist yet—a Convention will some prepared for it to carry forward . A g reat deal appears to have been said , with approval , about rich men , and of their interest being opposed to that of the working man ' s . Those who share these sentiments should have too much pride to be under obligations to rich men . Snob Chartists should be prompt to pay their own way , and we have doubt they will . A sum so small as one shilling from each member will enable ns to meet all deficiencies , and apply a surplus to a well-considered

      organisa-Faitbful to onr pledge , we incur no liabilities , and the sum of £ 2 19 s . received since we last met , has reduced the final debt to £ 33 Is . A letter has been received from Mr . Harney , written under the impression that imputations have been made apon his personal honour in the addresses we hare issued . "We only need say in reply , that the impression is totally unfounded . We expressly said that Mr . Harney ' s sentiments woald be the same as our own respecting the liquidation of the debt . The personal friendship felt for Mr . Harney by every member of the Executive , forbids the supposition of any unjust reflection on him . We thank those Chartists who have this week contributed to the liabilities , and we continue to solicit the residue of the debt . Signed , James Grassbt , Secretary , protem .

      Metropolitan Delegatb Council.—This Body...

      Metropolitan Delegatb Council . —This body met at the Finsbury Literary Institution , on Sunday afternoon—Mr . A- "Wood in the chair . A report of a favourable nature was received relative to the late public meeting at the John-street Institution . —Mr . Butler moved , and Mr . Murray seconded , a motion for calling a pnbbcmeeting to petition parliament in savour of the pardon of all political exiles . —Messrs . Farren and Nicholls opposed the motion , on tbe ground of the apathetic state of the movement , and advised the withdrawal of it . On being put lo the vote it was rejected * by a majoriiy of two . —Mr . Clarkmoved , and Mr . Nicholls seconded the following resolution : — "That this Council Veins formed for the purpose of

      propagating Chartist principles , consider it their first duly to endeavour to restore localities in places where they for merly existed ; to accomplish this effectively the Cooncil stall " appoint one or more of its members to visit al ! places where localities have been held , to ascertain , as far as practicable , the reasons which have led ta their dissolution ; whether suitable places of inseting can be had , aud what amount of Cooperation the Council may calculate upon from the Democracy of the district . " After considerable discussion , and a verbal amendment , the motion was carried . On the mo ' -ion of Mr . Nicholl * , Messrs Clark , Snowies , Mills , and Farren were appointed as a committee to carrv tbe resolution into effect . —Mr . Cottle

      moved , and Mr . Butler seconded , a mntion to the following effect : — " That this Council appoint three delegates to the coming Parliamentary Reform Conference , with instructions to advocate the adoption of Universal Suffrage . " The Parliamentary Reformers were the only party who were strong enough to call a conference , and it was the duty of the Chartists to urge upon them the adoption of Manhood Suffrage . Mr . Parren moved as an amendment : — "That should the Parliamentary Reformers call a general Conference , and invite the attendance of all shades of Reformers , that the Council advise their localities to elect delegates thereto . " He was opposed to tbeir attendance at a purely Parliamentary Reform

      Conference . He denied that they were the only party who could call a Conference . They dare not call public meetings for that purpose ; and this ' proved , that although they possessed the necessary funds , they did not enjoy the confidence of the people . —Mr . Knowles seconded the amendment . The Reformers had invited men of ail shades to tbeir previous Conference , but would not allow them ta move an amendment for Universal Suffrage . If they sent delegates he was opposed to their acting under a cloak . —Mr . Docksey thought the Council had no ri ght to send any delegation to the Conference ; that power rested only in the localities . —Mr . Weedon spoke in favour of the motion . ' . If they would not entertain a proposition for Universal Suffjage it would

      serve to expose their hypocrisy . —Messrs . Murray and Harman supported the amendment . —Mr . Nicholls stated , that being a member of the Council of the Reform body he could explain to them the present position of that body . Many of the Council were in favour of the Charter ; some even went further ; but their consideration was , which were the most practical points to attain . These members had requested the Executive to call the Conference for the express object of altering their constitution ; and unless this was done they had no power to move any alteration in its objects . Toe . Executive refused to aceeed ; nevertheless , if a majority of the Council decided in favour of it the Executive were compelled to call it . They had given the

      necessary notice in the Council , and the motion would come on for discussion on Wednesday , February 4 th . If the motion was not carried , it would be useless to send delegates , as no proposition could be entertained for altering their rules . On this understanding the motion and amendment were withdrawn . Mr . Nicholls moved— " 'ihat the delegates be requested to call upon their localities to take immediate steps to pay the debts incurred by the late Executive . " They were in honour bound to pay the debts . The resignation of some of its members might have the effect of injuring the receipt of funds to that body , and the Council should set a good example to their brethren . —Mr . Weedon seconded the motion , and spoke highly of the conduct of the

      Executive in determining to defray the debts prior to taking steps by which any liabilities could be incurred . Several delegates supported the motion , and stated that their bodies were exerting themselves to raise funds . The motion was carried unanimously . —A resolution was passed , authorising the secretary to write to the localities , if their monthly contributions were in arrear . —The Counei !| then adjourned , Whuechafkl . —At the members' meeting on Sunday ereniajr , at the Ship Inn , High-street , a discussion took place relative to the position of the Executive . Mr . Cooper reported that he had written to Messrs Wheeler and Lie Blond , informing them of their nomination to the vacancies in that body , but that he had been unable to communicate with the Secretary of that body , owing to having mislaid his address .

      The O'Connor National Redemption. Fund. ...

      THE O'CONNOR NATIONAL REDEMPTION . FUND . •¦¦¦¦' - TO THE FRIEKDS OFLIBERTt , BUT MORE ESPECIALLY TO THE CHARTIST . 'BODY AND THE NATIONAL LAUD COMPANY . Fellow Countrymen , —It is with feelings of the most profound emotion that we perceive the necessity of an appeal to the honour and gratitude of Englishmen , to wipe from the land so great a national disgrace as is the case of Mr . Feargus O'Connor . We appeal not to charity or benevolence , hut simply to honour ; because we feel satisfied , that had it not been for the fearlessnes with which Mr . O'Connor has advocated the rights of labour he would he living among , and honoured by , the titled and great ones of

      the land , and not in inglorious seclusion—an alien from the land of hia birth . It would be useless to recount the many sacrifices which Mr . O'Connor has made on behalf ofthe * blistered hands and unshorn chins . ' The heavy expenses and lawchargesinconnexion with Chartism and ' Victim andDefence Funds , ' are well known . Whilst the ' ruin him with expenses' maxim in the ' Bradshaw' case , was notorious to both friends and foes . And as these expenses were incurred , not for his own , hut for the people ' s interest , it is the bounden duty of the people to pay them , and thereby release Mr . O'Connor from his pecuniary embarrassment , and consequently repudiate the idea that the Democracy of England allows its chief to become the victim of incessant persecution , without an effort to save him , which can be done without risk , with little trouble ,

      and less privation . Fellow Countrymen , it was in Stockport where Mr . O'Connor first opened his Chartist campaignit was here he dug the foun dation of that stupendous ruin , iu which he is now engulphed , and upon us has devolved the great responsibility of appealing to tbe honour , honesty , and gratitude of all real friends of liberty and progress to assist in handing down to posterity the untarnished honour of the greatest political chief of which England can boast , viz ., Mr . Feargus O'Connor . We say the greatest , because the honour and probity of no man has been more assailed—none have had their actions more closely scrutinised ; and a British House of Commons , through one , of its committees , was compelled to acknowledge him an honest man—whom the immortal Burns says , is * the noblest work of God . '

      Brother Democrats , we do not intend to let our sympathy consist only in this address . There are three committees working in this town for the purpose of raising subscriptions to place Mr . O'Connor beyond the reach of want ; and , in addition , a great many of the Land Company are prepared to give their scrips to him , and any dividend which may fall to them at the winding up of the Company ' s affairs . And we hope and trust that every town , city , and hamlet will forthwith take up the cause with spirit , and enable us to recall our noble

      chief from his self-condemned exile , which will cheer his honest heart with a knowledge of the truth that his ' Old Guards' are still true , and that his * children ' still look upon his fatherly solicitude for their welfafe with the same fond regard as in the days of old . Chartists , remember that 'England expects that every man will do his duty !' By order of the Central Committee , Joseph Gordon , President , Isaac Jones , Treasurer , Thomas Woodhouse , Secretary . Stockport , Jan . 27 th , 1852 .

      Trades Intelligence. (Concluded From Our...

      TRADES INTELLIGENCE . ( Concluded from our Fifth page . ) Brighton . —An address " from the unskilled labourers of Brighton , to those ofthe same class in London , Manchester , Birmingham and elsewhere , now thrown out of employment has been issued . The address calls on the non-society men to send a deputation to their employers , requesting them to open their shops on the same terms as before , and if this should fail , then to appeal to the public for themselves . It also calls upon them to form themselves into a society , which would enable them to bid defiance to those who attempt to exclude men from the highest branches of the trade who are better able to work at it than many of themselves . " ¦

      Manchester —The deputation of employers to the London C & ntral Association have returned with proposals as a basis for arrangements to re-open workshops , but we could not learn the exact nature of them . They wero to be submitted to a meeting on Tuesday , and the decision taken in London , upon a reconsideration of the question , on Thursday . The Amalgamated Society of Operatives report that f unds come in well . They received 10 s . each last week , a Mi , not 15 s ., as we were informed . A telegraphic communication from London came to hand on Monday evening , advising a payment yesterday of 15 s . each for the six days , in consequence of funds coming in better than was expected .

      The society have also banded over 4140 , including public contributions , to tbe labourers' fund . The payments made yesterday in Manchester and Salford were as follows : —788 society men ( all that are out of work ) , los . each ; 205 engineers , non-society men , 15 s . each ; 195 apprentices , each one-third the wages earned when at work ; 780 labourers , 5 s . each . It is stated that meetings of the non-society men of the respective shops turned out were holding on Tuesday to decide whether they should adhere to the societies of employers or of workmen .- Messrs . Sharp and Co . ' s had decided to hold with the Amalgamated Society ' s cause , and so had Hetherington ' s hands .

      Liverpool . —The efforts made by the engineers in Liver , pool to accommodate matters with their employers , and remain in work , have , unhappily , proved unavailing , tbe latter insisting upon all who are connected with the Amalgamated Societies to leave their shops . Messrs . Fawcett ' s men , eighteen in number , already out ; and sixteen of Messrs . Forresters' will be paid of to-night ( Saturday . ) A memorial was presented by tbe latter to the firm , pledging themselves not to attempt making any alterations in the rules and regulations of the shops in the Liverpool district , and to remain neutral in the impending struggle between the men and masters in other districts . This , however , was held to be insufficient , Messrs . Forresters having bonud themselves to the Masters'Association not to employ upon any terms , those of their men who were not willing to give up altogether the clubs to which they belong , and which afford important benefits to members , incase of sickness , want of work , & o . ~ Liverpool Mail .

      On Tuesday , a general meeting of the engineers in tho Liverpool district was held at their club-room , for the purpose of considering whether any further steps could be taken to bring about an accommodation with their masters . The chairman , having briefly referred to their previous efforts , ar . d to the different position in which they were placed as compared with that of their brethren in Manchester and London , and to the fact , that the only complaint urged against them by the masters , was their being connected with their benefit clubs , stated his conviction that it was their general desire to do everything in their power to conciliate their employers . They had met together to devise some means of doing so ; and would be glad if any member could suggest any such means . It was pointedly urged by one of the members present that they could make no surrender of their clubs , which they regarded as equal in benefit to insurance societies . Would their masters , ho asked , give them , as their clubs did , besides other benefits , £ 100 in case of being disabled by

      accident , and £ 50 in case of being paralysed , in order to procure them the means of starting some business % The speaker concluded by proposing that another deputation should be appointed to wait upon and reason with the masters . —A member suggested that one of the grievances felt by the masters was their having given their sanction to the advance of £ 10 , 000 from their fund for the purpose of starting co-operative workshops . This vote was only carried by a majority of one , fully thirty of the members of the meeting abstaining from giving any vote . He concluded by proposing that the vote should be rescinded . This was however , over-ruled , as not within the province of the present meeting ; and after some further conversation , in which it was unanimously agreed that no concession to the demand upon them to leave their clubs could be made , it was unanimously agreed that a deputation should be appointed to wait upon the masters , and that two or three disinteresteii gentlemen of the town should be solicited to accompany them and act as mediators . The meeting was a most respectable one , and its proceedings

      almost unanimous . ° The Secretaries of the Employers' Association contradieted the statement that Messrs . Marsden , of Manchester had resumed his work «—J

      STRIKE OF OTHER OPERATIVES . Bamubt , Saturday . —For several days much commotion baa been manifested in this district by a " strike" among a large number of weavers who were employed at the factory of Messrs . Banghen , in this town . The men had a meeting on the 21 st , and from their statement it would appear that the cause of their leaving their employment was the intended reduction of their wages b y the firm According to the wages they were receiving they were enabled , by working from twelve to sixteen hours a day only to earn the small sum of 12 s . per week ; out of that thev were to Is 6 dfor the of their looms

      pay . use , and to find their own candles . They also represented that when the income tax of 7 d . in the pound was levied their masters instantly reduced their work 2 d per yard , which amounted to 2 s . 6 d . in the pound income tax . It was also said that if they returned to their employment , and worked under the present terns of the firm , they could only earn 6 s , a week . The inhabitants ofthe neighbourhood have opened a subscription on behalf of the men , and near £ 100 has been collected ; bnt , as it has been distributed amongst oOO , each chare was bnt very small . The "turn-out" is the cause of much excitement and suffering in the vicinity of tho town .

      LEEDS REDEMPTION SOCIETY . We are proceeding with our Co-operative undertaking in the direction which we desired at setting out , viz : —As associates in distribution not of Groceries only , but of every article produced or vended by Co-operators , and where we can and other Co-operators do net—to produce it ourselves : as cloths , shoes , & c , we are enabled to carry out our views more effectually by timely aid not to be forgotten .

      THE CROOK WORKING-MAN'S MUTUAL CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETY . Mr . Editor —A correspondent in your last week's paper , asks several questions regarding the report of the Working-man ' s Mutual Co-operative Society of Crook , and it isjwith pleasure we answer them . The reason we pay ten per cent , on the share money is , because no member can hold more than four shares at ten shillings each , which , by itself , does not ' . realize sufficient capital to carry on successfully the concern . That being the case , we instituted a bank to receive deposits , which is open to all , whether shareholders or not ; at the same time it holds out an inducement to the shareholders to invest their interest money , and

      to them as well as others it becomes a saving bank ; there are many depositors who are not shareholders . You may be ready to say , why do we not increase the share money by increasing the price , or number of shares , so that each member might take more out ? The reason is , the poorer shareholders were afraid , if the shares were not limited , that the wealthier shareholders would gain too much influence . And , to satisfy and give confidence to our weaker brethren , we have limited the interest on the share money , and what remains over , after paying the said interest , goes into a contingent fund , on which the depositors in the bank have no claim , but which belong entirely to those who are full members of the society . By inserting this in your next paper , you will oblige your correspondent , and Your obedient servant , January 26 , 1852 . John Collingb .

      Shockiso Accident Bi Maohinebi. —Mr. Rob...

      Shockiso Accident bi Maohinebi . —Mr . Robert Baker , sub-inspector of factories , charged Mr , John Yarley , of Stanningly , near Leeds , worsted spinner , before Colonel Tempest , Mr . Joshua Pollard , Mr . John Rand , Mr . William Walker , and Mr . Alfred Harris ( West Riding magistrates ) , at Bradford , on the 15 th inst ., with having committed breaches of the Factory Act in several instances , namely : — " Fust , omitting to fence off a shaft or axle in one ofthe rooms of his mill , whereby a very severe accident had occurred to a girl named Aunis Fenton , employed by him ; secondly , employing Pheebe Sugden , a girl under thirteen years of ago , more than seven hours ; thirdly having employed Hannah Sugden , under thirteen years of ago for more than seven hours ; and fourthly , having employed Phoebe Sugden , without having a schoolmaster ' s

      certificate . The defendant , for whom Mr . Terry , solicitor appeared , is of the firm of Messrs . Varley and Son . Mr . Barker then proceeded with the charge against the defendant for not properly fencing off the shaft of the machinery . He stated that in the room where this shaft was , the defendant had seven drawing machines , all in a line , and that they were driven by a shaft running the whole length through the lower portion of the machine . It was usual for such shafts to be placed above the machines , and they were not allowed to be lower than seven feet from tbe floor , unless they were fenced off . On the 8 th of December last a girl named Annis Fenton , who was working in this room , received a very severe injury in consequence of this shaft not being fenced off .

      The girl was stooping down for the purpose of picking up some waste under one of these machines , or gill-boxes as they were called , when her long hair became entangled in the shaft , and was actually torn from her head . Witnesses were then called by Mr . Baker in proof of this statement . Mr . Machill , certifying surgeon for that district , was also called to prove the extent of the injury sustained by the poor girl . Mr . Machill stated that the hair had not only been torn off , but portions of ihe flesh as well ; the skin , integuments , and the hair across tbe forehead and down to tbe back of the neck , from the angles of the jaw nearly to the right ear , were entirely torn off : the left ear had also been torn off by the root . Mr . Machill produced the hair , & c . in court , and stated that in all probability the

      girl would recover from the effects of the accident ; she was then able to sit up a few hours a day , and was in every respect doing well . The sufferer had received nothing from her employers since the accident , neither had tbey visited her ; she had received 10 s . from a fund raised by levying fines among the mill hands . Mr . Terry , for the defendant , contended that the shaft by which the accident happened was not such a shaft or mill-gearing as was contemplated by tbe act , but was a portion of tho machine itself , the whole seven gill , boxes being but one preparing machine . Robert Parkinson , a mechanic in the defendant ' s employ , was called in proof of this , but on cross-examination he admitted that each gill-box was a complete machine of

      itself . Colonel Tempest said thai the bench felt that they would be very remiss in tbe discharge of tbeir duty if they did not inflict the full penalty . The conduct of Mr . Yarley in not visiting and relieving the girl was exceedingly reprehensible , and tho defence which had been set up was anything but creditable to him . The full penalty of £ 100 was imposed upon the defendant , together with costs , £ 2 4 s . Cd . With the concurrence of the bench , Mr . Baker promised to solicit Sir George Grey to present the penalty to the unfortunate sufferer , Annis Fenton . After this decision , Mr . Baker withdrew the other three charges upon the defendant paying costs , amounting altogether to £ 2 6 s . 6 d .

      Dkath of as EccKSinic Litehary Character . —On Wednesday an inquest was held at Camberwell on the body of Mr . Richard Alfred Davenport , aged seventy-five , author of histories of America and India , a ; d several poems of great ability . On Sunday , about four o clock , the attention of police-constable Dwyer was attracted by low moans issuing from Brunswick Cottage , Park-street , Camberwell ( tho residence of the deceased ) . He knocked at the door , but could get no answer , and he therefore broke into the front parlour , and found the deceased lying in the passage nearly dead , with a bottle that had contained laudanum in his hand . A surgeon was sent for , but a few minutes after his arrival the deceased expired . Several bottles were found in his bedroom containing laudanum , of which he was in the constant habit of taking large quantities while writing .

      Upon the jury going to view the body , the house presented a most extraordinary appearance—tbe rooms were literally crammed with books , manuscripts , pictures , ancient coins and antiques of various descriptions . The deceased baa resided in the house for upwards of e . even years , during which time it had never been cleansed , and the books beds and furniture were rapidly decaying , everything ' being covered with dust . All tbe windows of the house ( of which deceased was tho freeholder ) were broken , the whole place presenting a most dilapidated appearance . Verdict , " That the deceased died from iiwdvertentlv taking an overdose of opium . " Tun Coast Guard . —Returns have been ordered to be made by the several inspecting commandors of the coast guard , ofthe number of chief boatmen , commissioned boatmen , boatmen , and extra men employed in their respective districts , stating age and service , and distinguishing those

      wno nave served in toe royal navy and have been appointed by the Lords of the Admiralty from civilians who have received their appointment from the Treasury or Board of Customs ; this is to be done for the purpose of ascertaining the number of men who can be made available in case of an emergency , as those men appointed by the Admiraltv having served in the navy , are well drilled to the great eun exercise , and have obtained certificates of good conduct and of being efficient seamen , from the commanders they served under in the navy . Similar returns are to be made by the ettcers commanding revenue vessels with resneot tn tl . » ir

      crews , and also of all boatmen employed in the service of the Board of Customs . Orders have been issued to the various chief officers commanding stations , to have their boats crews drilled in the great gun , small arms , and sword exercises , on every occasion that they can ba spared from their other duties . It is stated , that should the services of the coast guard be required , they will garrison the towers ana batteries along the coast , and assist tho dockvard brigades to man floating batteries and guu-boats . Firb and Loss of Lifb-Oo Thursday morning a dreadtol fire broke out at the house of Mr . Werndley , No 47 Welbeckstreet

      Royal Marionette Theatre. On The Spot Fo...

      ROYAL MARIONETTE THEATRE . On the spot formerly occupied by the Adelaide Gallery as a gallery of Practical Science , in Adelaide-street , Strand , Mr , Simpson has lately , as with a wizard ' s wand , erected one of the prettiest little theatres in the metropolis , for the purpose of re-introducing to the public , after an absence of more than twenty-five ; years , a troupe of Marionettes , or mechanical figures . The attractions of tho puppets , or Marionettes , gave birth , in the days of Addison and Steele , to many a mournful article in the " Spectator" and " Guardian , " deploring the effect they had in ruining the

      natural drama , which then , as now , we were repeated !} informed , had lost its hold on the public affection through the introduction of foreign novelties . From that time to this Marionettes have been comparative strangers in England , although they are standing attractions in most of the large continental cities . It is true that about 1829 Mr . Welsh engaged a troupe of Marionettes for the old Argyll Rooms , in Regent-street ; but before they had fairly got hold of the town they were deprived of a local habitation in " MerrieEngland" by the ravages of fire , which destroyed alike tbe theatre and the performers .

      The new theatre has been opened with great _ spirit , and is nightly crowded by delighted and applauding andi & nc 89 ' ' ¦ ' {¦¦ The performances commence with an introductory address , very smartly written , from the puppet manager , Mr . Albany Brown , who moves -his arm , head , & c , more naturally than many a would-be actor at our metropolitan theatres royal . This is succeeded by a scene of apropos , entitled the " Manager's Room , " which serve as a vehicle for introducing the company ' s prima donas , leading tragedians , tragic ladies , buffo singers danseus , & c , to the audience . In this scene the illusions > are excellent ; the

      speaking and singing is done behind the scenes , but the acting is so true to nature as almost to persuade us that the words issue from the lipa of the Marionettes before us . >? # The other attractions have been the " Bottle Imp , in which some cleverly managed and really startling effects are produced . " BombaBtesFurioso" played as only Marionettes can play it ; and a grand ballet of action , entitled " Pauline , or the Pupil of Nature , " in which a grand characteristic pas de deux , and an English hornpipe , are exeellenty danced . The latter is equal to anything of the kind ever produced upon the stage , almost making us fancy that it is being danced by the celebrated T . P . Cook himself .

      In short a pleasanter couple of hours cannot be spent than at the Royal Marionette Theatre ; and we would particularly leeommend indulgent papas and mamas to treat their children with a visit before sending them back to their scholastic duties for the coming half year . We should observe , too , that for the accommodation of his more juvenile friends , the manager has arranged for a morning performance every Wednesday and Saturday .

      SURREY THEATRE . On Monday night a new and original domestic play , entitled " Annie Tyrrell , or Attree Copse , " by Mr . Serle , the author of many dramatic productions which are well known to the public , was brought out here with decided success . The scene is laid in an English village , and the characters consist of farmers , poachers , gamekeepers , cockney sportsmen , a drunken postman , an innkeeper and his daughter , and the various other members of an ordinary rustic circle . The hero is a young farmer , who has fallen in love with a village maiden , and who , being discovered poaching , kills a gamekeeper in a struggle for his own life . The incidents leading to the murder and the consequences arising from it . form the leading features of the play , and the plot is filled up with a succession of comic scenes . Miss A ' nken , Mr Oreswick , Mr . Mead , Mr . Shepherd , aud Mr . H . Widdicomb performed the principal characters , and the piece was put effectively upon the stage .

      ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION . Tho chemical professor to this establishment , Mr . Pepper , is engaged in delivering a lecture of a highly scientific character , and treats of that peculiar state of oxygen , which considered as a new form of that element , or as a parotide of hydrogen ( under tbe name of ozone ) , presents features of the utmost interest to all those engaged in science . The air from an electrical machine , commonly called the electric aura , was shown to contain ozone , by turning iodide of potassium , and starch blue , by its peculiar odour , and also by its power of bleaching indigo . Having demonstrated the different modes of procuring ozone , and stated that it was contained in atmospheric air , the learned professor

      proceeded to exhibit numerous experiments , to prove his position ,- and concluded by directing tbe attention of his auditors to a number of lumps of gold , one valued nearly £ 200 from Oba , Australia , brought over by Colonel Monday , and shovm from philanthropic motives , in order to attract attention , and induce all persons who are anxious to improve their fortunes , or who are impoverished in this country , to emigrate there , as the true Ophir and land of promise . Hitherto the greater number of emigrants have gone to California , but the advantages of Australia were paramount , as it was under the protection of the British government , and proper , instead of Lynch , law prevailed . Messrs . Hunt and Roskill kin jl y sent the specimens .
