Reminiscences Of Emmett's Insurrection. ...
REMINISCENCES OF EMMETT'S INSURRECTION . ( Abridged from the Irishman . ) On the 21 st of _ilay , 1 S 03 , 1 quitted my father ' s house , in street , London , and proceeded to Ireland , where I intended to spend a few months at the house of an uncle , who resided at ¦ , connty of Wicklow . I was educated in the principles of the Established Church ; but as my mother , _anatire of Ireland , was a Roman Catholic , I was by no means a bigoted Protestant ; and " bavins- from childhood listened to the traditionary tales " bf the greatness of my Irish ancestors , I _longed to Visit in person those scenes where my fancy had often revelled . Having spent a few days
in Dublin , I repaired to Bray ; and as the weather ¦ w as unusually favourable , I determined to perform the remainder of my journey on foot , particularly as I could by that means visit the Pargle , through which my road lay . I had not proceeded far when I overtook a gentleman , who walked forward at an easy pace , apparently wrapt in meditation . His figure was rather taU , but well-proportioned , and le appeared tobe not mnch above my own age ; his features were prominent , and bore the impression of melancholy ; but withal so gentle aiid so pensive that I instantly set him down in mind for a child of humanity .
Travellers are privileged persons . "We soon became acquainted - and as the stranger appeared intimate with my uncle ' s family , I hnd no hesitation in _accompanying him to an inn at Enniskerry , where he promised -we should meet one of my cousins . He was not mistaken , for the first person we saw off entering tbe house -was _Afalaehy , ihe youngest of my uncle ' s two sons ; and although some years had elapsed since I had seen him in London , yet 1 knew him at first sight , for his was a hee whieh , once _belmld , conld never be forgotten .
I now , for the first time , learned that the name of my companion was Emmet . He appeared to be on a footing of great intimacy with my cousin - , and both seemed from their conversation , ardent admirers of liberty . I could readily perceive that they were dissatisfied with the easting state of things , and anticipated a change of measures . " The chain , ' said Emmet , in a mild but firm tone , " which binds us is stretched to its utmost limit _; and wants but another effort , either of the oppressor or the oppressed , to burst asunder , and give liberty io Ireland . " lied
" Whether that be the case or not , " rep _ilalachy , " it is to be hoped that our grievances are not destined to continue . " " They cannot possibly , " said Emmet , " endure , under any circumstances , much longer ; for nature revolts against tyranny and injustice ; and the means taken to perpetuate these have always ended in their complete discomfiture . In this sense we roust look for an explanation of the apparent paradox , that national misfortunes are ultimately productive of national benefits . " * * * * "During this dialogue Emmet ' s fine manly countenance glowed with an enthusiastic ardour , and he delivered himself with a 3 much animated fervency as if he were address " ** - ! a numerous , but distracted assembly , whieh he wished to persuade . His words flowed with a graceful fluency , and he combined his arguments with all the ease ofa man accustomed to abstract discussions .
The entrance of a stranger suspended onr conversation , and , after a few minutes' _privates-conference between Emmet and my coasin , the former took his leave , and Jlalachy and I set out for my uncle ' s residence . On onr way I could not help admiring the delightful scenery on each side ; but my pleasure was considerabl y damped by my companion ' s melancholy reflexions . He admitted that the conntry was beautiful and the soil productive , but asked me— " "What were all these when the country was in chains ' . " We were soon , however , within sight of my uncle ' s house , which we quickly entered .
Our conversation was interrupted by ths announcement ofa stranger , who proved to have been a schoolfellow of Makchy _' s . He had been obliged to expatriate himself from Ireland during the preceding five years , in consequence of his connexion -with the business of ' 98 and had only then returned to his -friends , -who lived in the neighbourhood of Castle . I shall introduce him here under the cognominatiou which he bore among his friendsthe Exile . He consented to stop to dinner ; and I -was not a little pleased hy the arrival of another guest—my recent acquaintance , Emmet . "When the cloth waa removed , the conversation turned on the politics of the day , and thc state of Ireland . Emmet , always the enthusiastic , insisted that there were no hopes of redress unless by an appeal to arms —the last resource of the oppressed .
The county of Wicklow possesses SO many beauties , so manv cataracts , g lens , hills , and dales , that it was impossible for one like me , who had lived 0 % on poetry and romance , to feel anything like ennui during mv sojourn at Castle Independent of external objects , however there were others of a . social nature , perhaps of a more attractive kind ; and , while I enjoyed the pleasure of daily rambles through the most _bewitching scenery , I spent my evenings where there was the "feast of reason and the flow of soul . " Elmgrove , the residence of Mr . 3 , the Exile ' s father , was not more
than three miles from my uncle ' s castle ; and , as i £ aJaehy was often from home on business , I paid frequent visits lo the house of my new acquaintance . Mr . J was a venerable-looking man , fof strong-mind , and ind ependent spirit . He had only two children-the Exile , and a lovely daughter , in both of whom his happiness was concentrated Eliza J— -was young , handsome , accomplished , and good . She was-everythin g a man , who could write a sonnet , might love ; and Ihad not heen lon <* _- in her _sor-ieiy before I began to breathe thick ana short , and betray other symptoms indica tive ofa

ialhd diseased . _^ Jn such oases , young ladies are admirable physicians , at least in detecting the malady ; and 1 flatter myself that Eliza early knew the cause of my sighing , absence of mind , and langwshing looks , that express everything , though they seem to mean nothing . She sang for me some of the sweet wild melodies of her country ; p layed Italian music for me on the piano ; and gave me her arm when we walked in her father ' s g arden . You may be sure my visits were long and frequent ; and , indeed , had there been no snch attraction , I
should have availed myself of the Exile ' s conversation . He had Been and learned much ; waa full of Anecdote ; and deeply read in the history of mankind . One Sunday evening he was amusing us with some particulars of his adventures in the county of Wexford in the year Ninety-eight . At the battle of New Ross he was wonnded , and must have been trampled to death , were it not for the humanity of a peasant , named Howlan , who carried him to a place of safety , and subsequently attended him till his recovery . .. the old
On his mentioning the name of Howlan , man seemed agreeably surprised ; asked his soni if it were not the person called the Hero of Oulard ; and , being answered in the affirmative , told us that the brave fellow was residing in the nei g hbourhood ; upon which the Exile insisted on immediately seeing him , and requested me to accompany him . After walking about a mile , we came to a neat thatched cabin , situated in a very sequestered V _" " _*??; A river ran before it , and a few aged trees shaded the simple roof . The door was open , and , on our entrance , a peasant rose to receive us . He smiled as he handed me a chair , and looked inqui sitively at my companion . . , ,, "Don t you recollect Mr . J ? " mqmred the Exile . This interrogation was followed by a momentary pause , during which Howlan seemed lost in reflection ; after which he burst into an exclamation of surprise and leasure
p . " Oh , blud-an-ounze , " he repeated several times , "is this yourself—yonr own four bones , whole and sound after all ? Well , well , I knew I _shouMseeyou again ; though I was certain you were dead . " So , so , Howlan . " said the Exile , " you haven t yet learned to be loyal ?" " Loyal 1 " repeated the Hero of Oulard ; " no in troth , for it is not in my grain ; and , faitb , I believe if I was paid for it , these stripes on my back wonld not let me . " " I recollect , " returned tho Exile , " a part of your story ; but the apprehensions I was under when I first heard it prevented me from attending to the whole . Was not your father murdered ?"
"Murdered"" repeated Howlaa ; "ay , murdered over and over again . And wasn ' t I murdered myself ? But , " he continued , " I'll just tell it all here to you both . " Then , drawing liis stool close to where we sat , he proceeded : " My father ( Lord be marcifulto his sowl in glory ' . ) kept a snug little f arm on the rig ht-hand side of the road that goes from Gorey to Ferns ; and , though I say it , there was not a more tasty man in the county of Wexford . I myself was the youngest of three sons and two daughters ; and the devil a more genteeler family attended mass of a Sunday than Paddy Howlan s . My two brothers were able , strapping fellows , and , faith , there were worse boys in the parish than
myself . " The winter hefore the rebellion _theYeos * were out every night ; aud dreadful work they made of it —burning , whipping , and shooting . I shall never forget the 15 th of November ; no , sever while there is a drop of Irish blood in my sowl ; for when I think of it my brain boils , and my very flesh creeps as if there was a blister all over me . Well , as I was saying , on the loth of November , I was coming home from Enniscorthy market ; and , being after taking a glass ofthe creature with ono friend or
another , I was pretty merry , and to make the road light I was singing to myself * The Victim of Tyranny , 't and the ould mare aself was so pleased though the night was as dark as pitch . " Just as I came to the top of the boughareen J that led down to our house , a fellow seized my beast hy the halter , and while you'd be looking round you , a score bayonets was ready to pop into poor Denis . ' Hallo ! ' said I , « what ' s this V ' You Popish rebel , ' cried out the officer ( for ifc " was a party of the North Cork ) , ' what song is that you were singing V 44
, _OclT , nothing at all , ' said I , ' only new words to an ould tune . ' "Ah ! then , by , said he , " you shall soon sing another tune , unless you tell ns of all the people you know to be United Irishmen . " "Faith , and that ' s what I can soon do , " says I , " for I know nobody . " The word wasn't well out of my mouth when he ran his sword into my arm , saving , " That ' s a tickler to help your memory . " "Thank your honour , " says I ; "but as you are not Yeos I hope you will act decent , and let a poor boy pass . My name is Howlan , and I never did any man an injury . " "Howlan ' . " cried the officer , " you are the very man we want . Have you not two brothers ? " "Ay , and a father , too , " I answered , quite calmly , though I waa in a terrible picklewith the blood streaming down my arm .
, " I was then bid to drive down to my father ' s house , and they all kept quite close to me . Thc family were all in bed ; and I , foolish enough , called up my poor f ather , then seventy years of age , and my two brothers . They came out into the lawn in their shirts , for they were so frightened they forgot to put on their clothes ; and , if they hadn't , they could not , for want of time . "My father said he had no arms ; and when he protested , which was the truth , that he was no united man , the sergeant knocked him down with a pistol , and some of the soldiers began kicking him while he lay on the ground . My brothers , of course ( for what Christian would turn informer ?) refused to confess anything : and , accordingly , the eldest
was taken and tied to a car , and a drummer boy proceeded to flaw him at a desperate rate , while one of the party , to give him light , set fire to the barn . As the flames mounted up to the skies , I could see my poor brother ' s back , hackled into a raw griskin , while the poor fellow refused to gratify his murderers with a single groan . My mother rushed ont , and , falling on her knees , beseeehed the villains to forbear ; but one of the soldiers gave her a hick in the stomach , aud stretched her on tbe pavement . " Here I interrupted Howlan ' s narrative by declaring my disbelief , thinking it impossible for any officer to permit such brutal conduct ; but the Exile assured me that torture _^ was then regularly resorted to forthe purpose of extorting confessions ; and , to remove all scepticism , and to show the extent to which party hatred was then carried , related
a disgusting anecdote of a young lady , the daughter of a mag istrate , who , in the excess of her loyalty , actually stirred h er wine with the fragment of a fiDger wbicb had that day been separated by a blow of her father ' s sword from the hand of a rebel ! § Denis smiled at my incredulity , and proceeded . " Knowing how soldiers then treated young girls I made signs to my sisters , who had come to thc door , to shut it , and remain inside . They did so before the soldiers could prevent them ; and one of them , having seen what I had done , told the others , and in a minute there were a dozen stabs in my body . My eldest brother was then released , and the other tied up in his place ; when my father , who had recovered , rushed forward and seized the drummer s arm . Poor man ! the savages had no pity en his tearsand he received several stabs . "
, __ Here Denis was overpowered by his feelings ; and after hastily wiping away one or two natural drops from his cheek , continued : —
* A Contemptuous Name For Yeomen, T A Re...
* A contemptuous name for Yeomen _, t A rebellious son _; in which occurs the following stanza : ' I had a tyrant landlord base , Who saw my heart to Erin yearned ; Ev _' ii with tlie ground my Cot did rase , And lived my substance dearly earned . Unmoved , remorseless , now he sees Uy cottage falling , as it burns ; My wife for mercy on her knees , From her with ruthlessfrown he turns . ' Alas ! this picture exhibits but too faithfully the scenes that were then acted throughout the countrj . J A small road . S Englishmen would scarcely credit it that torture was at this lime the common method resorted to bj the _magi * _--tracy ior the purpose of discovering arms , & c . Tet such was the fact , attested by all the Protestants who have written histories or accounts of tlie Rebellion .
On the morning ofthe 23 rd of May , says Mr . Gordon , a _Frotestant clergyman , a labouring man , named Denis JI'Daniel , came to my house wiih looks ofthe utmost consternation and _dismay , and confessed to me that lie had taken the United Irishman's oaih , and had paid for a pike with which he had not yet been furnished , nineteen pence _halqienny , to one Kilty , a smith , who had administered the oath to him and many others . While I sent my eldest son , who was a lieutenant uf yeomanry , to arrest Kilty , 1 exhorted _M'Daiiiel to surrender himself to a magistrate , anumaheMs confession * , but this he positively refused , saying-, that he shonld , in that case , be lashed to ninke him produce a pike , which he had not , and to coufess what he _knetv not . I then advised Wm , as the onlj alternative , to remain quietly at heme , promisingthat , if he should be arrested on the _infoitaalioii of others , I would represent his case to the magistrates . He toek my advice ; but the fear of a «* rest and lashiBj- had so taken possession of his thoughts , tliat he could neither eat nor sleep ; and on the morning of the 25 th he fell on Lis face , and expired in a little grove near my house .
Sin Hay ' s 'History of the Insurrection ofthe county of Wexford , * it is stated that Hunter Gowan , a brutal magistrate , paraded the streets of Gorey , at the head of his corps of yeomanry , with a human finger stuck on the point of his sword . 'After the labour and fatigue of the day , ' continues tlie historian . ' i ! r . Gowan and his men retired to a public lionse to refresh themselves , and , lite trite blades of game , _ib' _-ir punch was stirred about with tho finger that had graced their ovation , in imitation of keen fox-hunters , who vj ' . dsk a bowl of punch with the brush of a fox before their bouzing commences . The captain and magistrate afterwards went to the house of Mr . Jones , where his _daughters were , and , while talcing a snack tbat was set be . fore * him , he _braced of having blooded his corps that day , and that thev were as staunch blood-hounds as any in the world . The daughters begged of their father to show them the croppv-finger ; which he deliberately took from his pocket and handed to tbem . Hisses dandled it about with senseless exultation ; at whieh a young lady in the room was so shocked , that she turned ahout to a window , holding her hand to her _fice , io avoid the horrid sight . Mr . Go-van _^ perceiving this , took the finger from his daughters , and archlg dropped it iuto the disgusted lady s bosom , bhe inslantlv fainted * au " - * he scene ended !!! ' ,

. ., " 1 was now _questioned about , united men , and arms ; and , as I also refused to make any discovery they took and bound my hands behind me , and then taking the halter from the mare ' s head , they placed it round my neck , and raising the car up , they bung me ont ofthe back-band . They were too cruel to let me die a natural death , and so cut me down a few minutes afore I went to Paradise . I can't tell anything about that time , but my ould mother told me that my face was as black as a pot , and my tongue out a bandle long . The first thing I recollect after being hanged was , to see the poor ould house in flames , the soldiers having set tire to it to get my sisters out ; but they were disappointed , as
the girls had made their escape while they were hanging me . " To make a long story short , " continued Dennis , " my father , myself , and two brothers were thrown into the cart , and marched off to Ferns . Next day my father died in the guardhouse , and after a week's confiement my brothers and I were turned out with pitch caps upon our heads . * - We had now no houso nor home , for my father ' s life being the term of our lease the landlord had seized on our little all , so we went to 8 arvice _, as did my sisters , my mother having died a month after my father . My brothers were long before they recovered ; and for myself , I'll feel the effects of that blood y night to the day of ray death . "
Denis having concluded , the Exile assured him that he had not forgotten his obligations to him , and should consider it his duty to make him com . _fortable for the remainder of his life . I expressed my gratitude also , and put a couple of guineas into the hands of a little boy who had run in before his mother . The effect produced on me by the horrible narrative I had heard completely disqualified me ior returning to Elmgrove ; and having begged the Exile to apologise for my absence , I set off for Castle —— , Denis proposing to show me the way , as he had business on that road .
A particular instance of cruelty operates more powerfully on the human mind than the most laboured description of an extensive massacre . Tho tale of this untutored peasant , told in his own expressive language , produced a painful interest in my feelings , while it excited my indignation to that degree of frenzy which made rae instantly determine upon the Quixotic resolution of findim * - ont the officer under whose command the family of Howlan had been tortured , and call him to an account , or at least , expose him to the world . Filled with this extravagant notion , I inquired of Denis , as we walked along , where the North Cork were now stationed . " _Lordhless your honour , replied Denis , "there ' s not a man of them on the land o' the living , for I was at the killing of them all myself—and quick work we made of it—on Oulard Hill . " ** Oh , I remember , " said I , "Mr . J— - spoke of jour generalship there . How was that ?"
'• Why , " replied Denis , '* when I went to ear vice , my master lived in the very parish with Father Murphy , who , God bless him , coming one day through Ferns , saw the Yeos _shooting poor Catholics like dogs , trying how many of theni a musketball would go throug h at once , - so in the evening he called his congregation together in the chapel . It was as dark as bags , and not a candle lighting to show us the way to say our prayers . We were all as silent as death , and you could hear a pin drop on the floor while the piiest was speaking . He tould us 'twas better die fighting f or oar religion and country than be butchered like sheep . He said what was Gospel , and faith we took hi 9 advice , and marched in fine order after him , and he in the
middle of us , to Oulard Hill , where we encamped for the night . The Yeos fled like murder at tho sight of us , for they are the greatest cowards in the world , and sent the sogers to frighten us ; but faith their day was passed , and once wo burnt the candle we'd burn the inch . When the red coats appeared , our faces were all manner of colours , and many proposed to run away . "No , ne , " says I , "the priest and God is with U 3 , and what have we to fear ? Here is a ditch and gravel hole , and lie in them-till the sogers come quite close , and when I cry out , Erin go bragh , let every man start up , and use his pike . My advice was taken . The sogers came up , sure enough , with a fellow like a turkeycock strutting before 'em on his horse ; and , when
they came quite near the ditch , he went behind them , and we could hear the words , " Ready , present , fire ! " Pop , pop , pop , went their muskets ; but faith I shouted out liko a lion , Erin go bragh , \ and it would do your heart good to see what sport we had . They weren't a breakfast for us ; and I had the pleasure , thank God , of sticking my pike into the rascally lieutenant who murdered myself and my father . You can read all this in any book you open , for it is everywhere printed . " I could nofc but commend Denis ' s generalship , and in-voluntary wished that I had been at Oulard with him . " Oh , as for that , " he replied , " there ' s as good fish in the sea as ever wa 3 caught ; and , bythe-bye , you may kill a hiuhion ( Hessian ) for yourself . "
T 'Itis Said Thatthe North Cork Regiment...
t 'Itis said thatthe North Cork regiment were also the inventors—hut they certainly were the introducers , of pitch-cap torture into the county of Wexford . Any person having their hair cut short ( and , therefore , called a Croppy , by which appellation the soldiery designated an United Irishman , ) on being pointed out by some loyal neighbour , was immediately seized and brought into a guard-house , where caps , either of coarse linen , or strong brown paper , besmeared mth pitch , were always kept ready for service . The unfortunate victim had one of these , well heated , compressed on his head ; and , when judged of a proper degree of coolness , so that it could not easily be pulled off , the sufferer was turned out amidst the horrid acclamations of the merciless torturers - _, and to the view ofthe vast numbers of people , who generally crowded about the guardhouse door , attracted by the afflicted cries of the tormented .

Drury-Lane. The Passing Cloud, Which Was...
DRURY-LANE . The Passing Cloud , which was produced on Monday night last at Drury-lane , by no means deservos its title . Ifc has too much merit to be so ephemeral , and yetitislong—its chief fault . But it contains very many scenes of very powerful interest , ri g ht well acted by ihe _Vandenhoffs , Mr . and Miss , by Gooper , and especially b y Anderson . — A Hanse Town merchant had once heen settled at Leghorn , where his brother , also in business , was enticed into fraudulent acts , for whieh he was condemned to the galleys . The merchant left Leghorn in consequence , and is represented as first magistrate in one ofthe towns belonging to Hamburgh . He has brought with him and reared aa his own , the daughter of his unfortunate brother . Whilst he is about to affiance this girl to a worthy lover ,
the chief of a band of ruffians from Leghorn gets introduced as his guest , and showing proofs of the condemnation of one of the merchants , terrifies the yonng girl into accepting him as a husband in lieu of her betrothed . At the same time , however , the girl's father having escaped from the galleys , also appears on the scene , attracted by the desire to behold his daughter . This character is acted by Mr . Anderson , and the position leads , as we observed , to verv striking scenes . Of course the villain is exposed _' just at the very point of complete success ; and this very serious melodrama , of which the light parts are tbe lea 3 t successful , terminates . The splendid spectacle of the Devil ' s Ring followed , and evidently delighted the audience , and thc graceful dancing of Madame Louise elicited a hearty encore .

Wreck of _Tnu Ocean (* _* , * jben . —Advices from the Cape of Good Hope , received on Saturday last , furnish intelligence ofthe destruction by five ofthe British ship Ocean Queen , Captain Tawell , commander , bound to Suez The unfortunate ship , a fine vessel nearl y SOO tons , in August last was chartered hy the Oriental and Peninsular Steam Navigation Company , to supp ly their depot at Suez with coal , and on the 1 st of September left the port of Gravesend for the company ' s station . The coals spontaneously ignited , and on tbe 21 st of December , when the ship was in latitude 23 S ., longitude
52 . 30 E ., the flames burst through the hatchways and deck , compelling tbe crew to make a precipitate retreat to their boats , and abandon the vessel . A gale of wind sprang up the following night , the boats parted company , and from the circumstance of two of them not having been heard of since , it is feared they were capsized during the storm . Thc boat in which Captain Tawell aiid his party left the wreck was picked up the following day , by the Yrench ship Gabriel , The survivors were safely landed at Table Bay on the 17 th of January last . The loss of the Ocean Queen is estimated at about

_, THE JENKINS _TOTITpTiON . , ' •—I * *** ... ' " " _*"' TO THE EDITOR OP THB IJORTHERN STAR . Dear Sir , —I beg to call your attention to the subjoined extract froni tho will ; of the late C . J . Jenkins , Esq ., bequeathing a considerable sura of money ( about £ 10 , 000 , 1 believe , ) for the purpose of endowing an institution for the use and benefit of the working classes of the Metropolis , and their families . The fact of so large a sum being devoted to Buch important purposes , ought to stimulate the working men of London to increased exertions in the great work of education . The
deceased was an attentive observer © f the various efforts being made for the elevation of the industrious classes , and he became convinced that education was one of the most important—if not the most iriiportant—means of effecting that desirable object ; he , therefore , devoted the result of many years' persevering industry to the maintenance of an institution in which instruction should be imparted to working men , and the children of working men , without regard to sect or party . Mr . Jenkins has nobly done his duty . "W iU the working men of London do theirs ? Tours respectfully ,

The Wrkckopthb Royai. Adelaide.—The Exte...
The _WrkckoPThb Royai . Adelaide . —The extent of this dreadful catastrophe is at length revealed . No less than 206 souls were on board the ill-fated ship when shestruok , of whom , as far as can he ascertained at present , not a solitary being has escaped . The _official list of the passengers who embarked at Cork has been received in town by Mr . Hartley , the manager of the City of Dublin Steam Navigation Company , from their agent at Cork . From this it appears that 144 adults and 23 children left Cork in the ship bound for London . The crew , with the captain , consisted of 24 men and one boy ; and 14 passengers lnving embarked at Plymouth , it follows , aa before stated , that 206 human beings have met an untimely end by the disaster . — -The robbery
of the general letter bags , belonging to the Leadenhall-street walk , on Monday morning , deprived Mr . Hartley , the manager ofthe City of Dublin Steam Navigation Company , of all advices concerning the loss of the ill-fated steamer , the whole ofthe company ' s letters having been carried off by thc thieves , From other sources we learu that no further bodies have been washed ashore , though many have been picked up by wreckers , who have nocked round the vicinity of the Tongue Sands since the night of the wreck , and having striped them of what property they had on , recommitted them to the deep . Naked bodies of men and women have been passed in the channel by thc vessels that have arrived in tho river
during the last three or four days . Two or three vessels have been seized by the officers , having property concealed on board , evidently plundered from the wreck of the Royal Adelaide . At present the company have been unable toascertain the number of families left destitute by this dreadful event—they are supposed to be exceedingly numerous ; A subscription has been opened at several banking _establishments in the City , to alleviate , in a measure , the sufferings of the helpless aiid destitute creatures , and no doubt it will be immediatel y responded to . Mr . Hartley , the manager ofthe company , will also gladly receive contributions , at the offices in Leadenhall-street .
_Attkmpied Assassination _anu Suicide . —On Monday great sensation was caused in the Cite _Wauxhalj , by an attempted assassination and suicide . A young officer of tho army had long entertained a violent passion for a young woman living in the CU 6 , and had intimate relations with her . To meet hor expenses it appears that he committed some f aults , which compromised him so seriously as to cause him to form tho resolution of committing suicide . He wanted tho girl to die with him , but she refused . Accordingly ho gave her a stupifying drink , and when she was senseless placed her on the bed . Ho then carefull y closed tho doors and windows to prevent tho ectranco of air , lighted a pan of charcoal , and laid himself down by the girl ' s
side . About three quarters of an hour afterwards the neighbours heard subdued _groana isaue from the room . This excited their alarm , especially as the officer had been noticed to close the windowshutters at the usual hour for opening them , and as also no one had been been to leave the apartment . The commissary of police having beon sent for he caused the door to be forced open , and found tho man and woman lying on the bed apparently dead . Medical assistance was immediately applied to both , - and in a few minutes the officer gave signs of life , and a little later was pronounced out of dancer . At first tho remedies applied to the girl had no
effect , hut more energetic ' measures having been resorted to she also recovered . She then declared that sho had no intention of committing suicide , and that an intoxicating drink must have been given to her . Tho officer , on the contrary , insisted that , on returning from a party of pleasure , she had consented to die with him . The officer was taken into custody oh a charge bf attempted assassination . —Galignani ' s Messenger , A _Rtjmoub . —On dit . —That the Bishop of Exeter contemplates secession , ; and that the first free church is to he built under his auspices at Eldad , in connexion with tho proposed establishment of the " Sisters of Mercy .

Anecdote of Mr . Howard . —A gentleman who travelled with Mr . Howard from Lancashire to London , in a post-chaise , relates the following cha . racteristic anecdote : — "At the end of a stage where the driver had been perverse , he desired the landlord to send to some poor industrious widow , or other proper object of charity , and to introduce such person and tho driver together . He tben paid the latter his fare , and told him , that as he had not thought proper to attend to his repeated requests as to the manner of being driven , he should not
make him any present ; bufto show him that he did not withhold it out of a principle of parsimony , he would give the poor person present double tho sum usually given to a postillion . This ho did , and dismissed the parties . He hnd not long practised this mode , he said , before he experienced the good effects ofit on all the roads where he was known .

Here he regaled him with a bottle of port , and showed so much genuine . hospitality , that Sheridan s heart was touched . When they rose from the _^ table , and were about separating , the latter looking the barber full in tho face , said , " On reflecting , I don't intend you shall make my wig !"

JAMES MOBISOl _*" , tm _fiY- < 3 ; EIST , AND THE MEDICAL PROFESSION . ( Extract of th _« concluding passages of' An Inquiry into the mode of action of _Morison _' _s Hygeian _Msdicinei ; by Hugh Marshall Smithion . _' * _ - j _. It need * n _« fire of fancy—a sober Imagination may easily realise the idea , that it is permitted to the ; _disejnbo-lied spirit to _contemplate , with a meek and gentle satisfaction and joy , the _awettly beneficent fruits of its philanthropic doing * whilst on earth ; and the ihade of James Morison , * " _" ? yee"t . way even now enjoy the privilege of sympathising , with a calm and chastened complaisance and delight , in the comfort and happiness which his discoveries and writings have already so widely diffused in this ' vale of tears . ' And generations y _« t unborn _ihall revere the namo , and embalm with grateful tears , the memory ot mm , who , rescuing the art of _healiiff from tlw mazes of
_UOgmatieal teunee . taught the lame to iferefo their crutoh ; the _phnd to see ; the deaf to hear ; the palsied to rejoice in agility of limb ; the bed-ridden to resume life ' s active _auties ; and the prematurely infirm and faded to renew their youth and strength . Custom , and fashion , and prejudice , may , for a season , still lead the throng to _raject with disdain the proffered boon _,-may still decoy the manv to embrace the dtadhest means as wisely appointed means ot health and ot life ; but the great mass of the people cannot long be inveigled by a grossly mercenary science , however subtle and refined ¦ nor by _sophistrisa however learned and ingenious ; neither will they long be reconciled to the utter ruin of all that makes life's sweet by prescriptive error , however sanctioned by authority , or by fatal ignorance , however venerable from antiquity . The car of the medical Juggernaut may still , for a season , ride over and mangle to the death its fanatic victims ; but ' a little more sleep , a little more slumber , a little more folding of the
arms to sleep , ' and the people will arouse themselves from their fatal delusion , and will throw off , with vindictive loathing and horror , their superstitious reverence of their ruthless medical idols , and then the eyes of their minds wiU be opened , and they will eleirly perceive that the legitimate office of the art of healing ia to euro- and notto _dj / gravaU , disease ; that the real function of remedial means is to restor * health to the afflicted , and not simply to minister to the _necesiitiesof a barbaric profession ; that the worth of medicines is to be estimated by no other rule than thc amount of human suffering which they relieve , and the perfect and permanent cures which they happily effect . The _alchymists of a former day were far more skilled and learned , and , impelled by a kindred avarice , delusion , and folly , were infinitelvmore ardent and devout inthe prosecution of their wild and maniac researches , than even the most profound and enthusiastic physicians and surgeons of our time—than tlie surgeons who essay
with more than alchymical stolidity , to discover the laws of health and life by elaborately mangling the corrupt and loathsome _cai-c . _iues ofthe dead—than the physicians who seek to restore health by the poisonous means which impair and _paralise every function of the body , and who seek to prolong life by poisoning and utterly destroying all the _ergans through which life moves and has its earthly being . The speculations and researches of the _alchjraist were , however , guiltless of murder ; whole hecatombs of human victims are daily sacrificed to the upas and sanguinary , to tlie craving and exacting and still insatiate and cruel god of the merciless and mercenary doctors . Our forefathers had not more implicit faith in tlie trickeries and juggleries ofthe sciences oi astrology , palmistry , and wizaidism , than too many of their posterity—tlie wi 6 er fools of our timehave in tbe medical sciences ot alleviating sufferings by torture , and of curing disease by death . The medical art ofthe present day is , indeed , at once the most stupendous
monument of _scienli / ic effrontery and blaokguardism , and of servile , mental prostration and . _abandonment , The public mind in our time is too miufh _engrosied in amassing wealth ) is too much abstracted and lost in the lofty ana exclusive researches of the applied sciences , and ofthe useful and ornamental arts ; the publio mind is so entirely carried away and abandoned to the concerns of _accumulating wealth , and of _promoting the advancement and _eleratUm of intelligence aud c ' vilisation , ai not to allow the dedication of a moment's time to the infinitely more im-Eo rtant and vital concerns of personal comlort and of odily health . Itis to this total abstraction ofthe mind from these concerns of the highest earthly import , that a false and exploded science owes its lingering , pestiferous existence , in these our days of general intellectual illumination ; itis owing to this entire mental abstraction that the medieal grubs and worms are still suffered to ply their trade of feeding upon the -rery vital ? of the community ;
and it is owing to this same intellectual engrossment , that whilst they are tolerated by the wise , and ridiculed by the witty , these loathsome vermin still drag out their anomalous and unnatural » xistenee . But the death blow has beeu given to tho trade in death , in the spirit of his own motto ' iino ietu . ' James Morison , the Hygeist , has dealt that single , fatal stroke , under wbich the medical moniter now languishes , and must ultimately perish . And even whilst upon earth , he foresaw in prophetic vision , tbat ho had entailed upon mankind the emancipation , of their health , and the full assurance of their _persenal comfort and enjoyment ; and when laying the foundation of the future physical blessedness of coming geierationi _, his spirit was cheered , and his ardour was inflamed , hy tho reflection that on the fleahy tablets of tho grateful heart * of all _tucccediiig posterity , he had raised to himself an endearing reoord of his own name and fame— 'montiflwntKni cerepertnnius !'
