THE BANNER OP GREEN " . The Tories corns forth ¦ with their b&nnert of bine , All straightforward tyrants , we !! give them their due ; Profuse with their money , but fierce in their wrath , The darkness of faction endangers their path . Tbey sprung from the blood and the refuse of war , Ths fsme of their murder was echoed afar ; ind still on the vitals of freedom they feed , And tyranny writes the dark page of their creed . Tie Whies they come next , with their banner of flame , The friends cf the people in nothing-but name ; They wheedle and tell you economy ' s plan , Thea Etarre and imprison yon . aye , to a- man . The ** political toll-bars , they keep you away From the broad land of liberty , truth , and fiir play : If you T . ilns the weal of the many—the poor , You will stand " Death the Whigs and their banner oe
more . Bat hurrah for young liberty , dauntless in mien , Hurrah , gallant laJs , for " the banner of green ;'" Let tyrants and fools smile on yellow and blue , "Well still to our own spotless flag remain tone . The day will arrive when oppression will cease , "When freedom shall wear her bright laurels in peace ; Then wherever the dwelling of man can be seen , How proudly shall wave " the gay banner of green .

THE YOICE OF FREEDOM . Heird ye that B ^ ul-insMring sound , B ^ rne swiftly on the eVnicg gal e , D-ifusicj gladness o'er the land , Stilling the mourning orphan ' s wail . Joy to the starving poor opprest , Those glerious whisperi : j ? s do brircr ; Throughout the breadth of Albion ' s Isle la heartfelt cheeriig accents ring . Its wbispei'd murmurs low and soft , When first it struck upon the ear Of tyrants and their courtly horde , Them mote with pallid , coward fear . But now that voice is like the roar Of Afric's mighty forest king ; And British slaves who dare be free , Our Tyrants * pealing death-dirge sing . That sound is freedom ' s glad ' ning voice , Proclaiming Truth ' s eternal reign ; When tyrant despots care not load The freeman ' s limbs with serf-like chains . C . Westbat

HALIFAX . —On Monday week , the members of the Loyal Trafalgar Lodge , No . 454 , of the Manchester Unity of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows , in the Halifax dUtricc , held their anniversary in the Royal Hotel and Odd Fellows' Hall Tap , when upwards of 130 members sat dowa to an elegant and substantial dinner , provided by Mr . and" Jlrs . Glover . BKD-tOTHIAlT . —Coixers * Stejke . —This determined and unflinching body of men are still ont on strike , in number about twelve hundred , without the least prospect ( as far as present appearances £ 0 ) of a speedy settlement ; the men and their families are enduring great privations , still they are in good heart , notwithstanding the many gros 3 falsehoods , and vile calumnies with which they have been assailed ; they are truly a brave set of fellowsr At the White Hill colliery there are
about seventy black sheep , pretending to hew coal , they are ( I am told ) a most wretched set , consisting of some of the worst characters in the county of Edinburgh ! They are not colliers ; some are country labourers , and some who never before laboured at all . Indeed the great part of these miserable cowardly Black Nebs are the very refuse of society ; getting these mean fellows to pretend to "work , i 3 an artful dodge , £ 0 t up to frighten the poor colliers into work : but the brave lads see through the trick , and will not be caught . As might be expected , these fellows taking the colliers work , has greatly exasperited the latter , and it is feared they will be attacked ; however , I would advise them to let them alone ; they will shortly find their own level .

CAEXISLE . —Lecttbis ox Socialism . —Mr . Robert Owen delivered a course of three lectures in enr Theatre last week . There was a pretty numerous and respectable attendance each evening . He * as li-teDed to throughout with the greatest attention ; and bi » leetmes , which were loudly applauded , rot only gave great delight to his friends and admirers , but were well received by the public . His FDhjecrs were " the Causes of , and only Remedy fcr , the existing distress , difficulties , and dangers weich pervaoe the Manufacturing and Agricultural Population of Great Britain and Ireland . " In his first lecture , he dwelt on the •' Science of Society , " which , he said , was divided into four grand elements , lamely , arrangements to produce wealth ,
arrange-Hens to dis-r . bute that weaith , arrangements to fcrzn the htrman character , and arrangements to { overt , ' ocaiiy and generally , beneficially for all . At pTe ~ em , these elements , over the world , were in ihe most random confn .-ion ;—there had been no Tisdom or foresight displayed ; and the most incongruous and injurious proportions existed in every part of society . Mr . Owen contended that society was now in possession of all the materials , in the greatest abundance , which would change the present wretched system of ignorance and misery , for a state superior to any yet pxperienc < = d by the human race . He proceeded —** When I fix ? t entered into life , the manufacturing system was about commencing in this country . I
was early deeply involved in it . I very soon saw the eff ots which must grow op from it , and could trace its ulimate consequences . These consequences viere cot only foretold by me , but I pnblished it at the time , and the publication is now on record . I then stated what h& 3 exactly occurred at the present day . At that period our popnlation was not more ; hau fifteen millions in Great Britain and Ireland ; and these fifteen millions prodnced , under the then arrange men's of society , before the people were taken in o mills and factories , a manual power of about three millions—one fifth of the population . These were assisted by the old machinery , and the single spinr . ing wheel . Ail the thread was thtn spca a sintle thread at a time upon the cottage
whetL This had not been altered f < T many hundred veais , and amounted to about the labour of twelve EillJoDS . These were assisted by the labour of the three millions , making fifteen minions ; thus the combined productive power cf science and labour Were jsst equal to the population , or the population and productive power stood as one to one . In tr . e jear 1799 l purchased of the partners the establishment of Aeiv Lanark , ia Scotland , and 1 found by m J calculations that with the working part of that population , amounting \ o about 1 , 800 out of a Population of 2 500 , and the machinery discovered BJ Arkwright and Watt , that the 1 , 800 individuals "were producing as much , as tipou the old plan of a ^ g ! e thread v > cmld have required a ; population of 600 , 000 . Now . observe this single fact , and it will ^ ad your minds to a right conclusion . They thns J ^ mediately lost the difference of the market between
the consumption of 2 , 500 and 600 , 000 . It was » J this disproportion of increase , and the markets of ™ » orld , that , for the first time in the history of toe ^ fiuo& n race , we were now starring from prottoemg too ouch , and because we have not sense ^ ° ogh to know how to apply this mechanical power . « o » , what has been the change in that time ! Our Population has not yet been donbled , bat the in-^ e&se of scientific power his been from twelve Bullions to upwards of seven hundred millions , or ttore than twenty to one cf the popnlation . It is m tame as if an individual had twenty slaves working morning and night , who neither eat , drink , " ° r wear clothes , and yet this individual was in a Wop \ condition than when he had only one slave ; wid the people of th- ' s highly Christian country are n ? win the rnost degraded condition , and suffering wstrecs which is accumulating upon them .

thi-, my friends ? It shows there has been sotnotKing fundamentally wrong in the foundation of society ; for if society had been based upon a Bound principle—if those who ruled the world had understood what was going forward—what thie power was , and how to give it a wise direction , the re-£ uhs would have been the very opposite of those which have taken place , and wa might now have had as well-employed and well-educated population . " Mr . Owen continued at some length to show that from the misapplication of machinery , through a system of individual interests , and scientific povj&r being brought into competition with manual labour , that the hours of labour , nad been lengthened , and the physical , mental , and moral condition of the population had been deteriorated to afrightfu : degree ; and
stated it as his opinion that if machinery had been employed under a system of united interests , the labour of man might be abridged to four hours a day . After alluding to the injury to society and the bad feelings generated , from laud , labour , capital , and skill being separate and corflictiDg interests , Mr . Owen concluded his firet lecture by some remarks upon the effect of what ara called the learned professions—upon the happiness , of mankind . —In his second lecture Mr . Owen entered iuto his peculiar views of the formation of human character , contending that any general character , from a very inferior to a very superior being , might be given to any individual by &a society amongst whom he was born . Some written qu- Btions were handed in at the close , of each lecture , to which he replied . The third lecture was on the Milennial state of
existence , _ v ? hich he contended would \> : produced by the adoption of his vievr 3 . All the preaching in tho world he maintained would never produce " peace on earth , good will to mia , " until practical arrangements were formed for removing the strife , contention and injustice generated by a- system of individual interested competition . At the close of this lecture , a great many questions were put , principally of a theological character , to which replies wers given . DUNDEE .-We perceive from the Star that the people of various places are be tirring themselves with success ia re : iirniai ? men of sound democratic
principies at ihe local elections . This is a point of attack which has been but too much neglected in afmost every town in the kingdom by the people . The people posses ? a power in these matters which they have not been properly alive to ; and it is one of tho most cheering aspeotsof the times to Beo them set about their own work in earnest . Dund&e has fora number of successive years bearded the factions at the local elections , but this year promises a reward t o their labours beyond their most sanguine expectations . Tha election of police commissioners (
twentytwo in uumber ) took place about ten days auo The Chartists set to work in a business-like manner . Upon the other side , public houses ware opened , and whiskey dealt out freely without money and "without price . The democrats pursued a steady and sober course , and after the keenest contest ever held in Dundee , thirteen Chartists wore returned . This , you will exclaim , is a decided majority ; not eu , they have provided in the act that the Sheriif , Provost , Jour Bailies and D ? an of Gnild are commissioners ex offiexo . It is such a working minority , however , as has caused zuuc ' a alarm in the enemy's camp .

Death op Allan Cu >> jngh . am . —Mr . Allan Cunningham , the poet and well-known prose writer , of 27 , Lower Belgrave-place , died suddenly on Saturday evening from an attack of apoplexy . He was the personal friend of Sir Walter Scott and Sir Francu C ' nantrey , and a nun whose literary fame was universally known . His age was 57 . An Eel , 9 feet 6 inches long , and 2 feet in circumference ; was broHght up in a scoop , last week , by some balla « t-men at work in the Thames . The ballast-men stated that the t < A snorted and barked at them like a dog when they first took it out 0 / ihe water . A bich hine of yellow amber , of a hardness equal to ro ^ k crystal , has just been discovered in the neighbourhood of the town of Zehderick , near Potsdam . Thi 3 discovery is the more remarkable , as up to the present time yellow amber has only been found in the Baltic , or on the shore 3 of that sea .
Canal between the Atlantic a > d Pacific Oc £ AXS . —It has been decreed by the Congress of Tsew Granada , that all the privileges which have heretofore been given to tbe French and English , in openiDg a canal through Panama , be forfeited and withdrawn , and the project of connecting tbe Atlantic with the Pacific be thrown open to tho competition of the whole world . So vast and unprecedented have bfen the shoals of herrings this season upon the Margate coast , th ' . t the Jane , one of the fishing smacks , arrived at the jetty on Sunday mrrning week , with a cargo of the miraculou 9 number of 50 , 000 ; the whole of which ihe crew disposed of to a fish curer for £ 50 , being less than a farthing each .
Gigantic Skeleton . —A few weeks sircp , while digging in a tan-pit ac Mr . M'Intosh ' s works , about & mile and a qnaiteT west from Grangemomh , the workmen came upon several very large bones of tbe posterior extremities of an immensely large horse , about six feet from the surface , imbedded in blue clay . The stratum of clay is about forty-two feet thick . Afterwards , it was resolved to exhume tbe skeleton , and care was taken , on removing tbe superstrata , to ascertain if it had been a buried animal . The upper strata was about twenty inches thick , and there was no moisture in the clay ; it appeared just to have been gradually covered . The skeleton was a very large one ; from the fore
teeth to the back part of the skull was two feet , and by the teeth , he had been about five years old at his death . The shoe- * , were upon the feet ; at the greatest breadth they are five and a half inches and , although considerably worn , one weighs lib . 14 dz . imper . al . The bones are reddish coloured , and appear much like those found at Bannockburn . From tbe dep ? h m which it was imbedded , and the shoes having also been found upon it , it must have long been buried , and i = probably one of the horses killed at tbe first battle of Falkirk . A part of the English army would likely be upon the spot where it was found on the day of the battle . —Stirling Observer .
Shipwkfck , and Strange Stokt op the Subvivoes . —A Correspondent , who witnessed tho circumstances related below , aives the following account of them : —During the storm of Tuesday Jasr , the 25 th , a ship was wrecked at this place ( Eastbourne ) under the following extraordinary circumstances . It strikes me , that the particulars ought to be made known . Soon after four o'clock a vessel was seen coming round Beachy-head very near to the land ; aud it soon was evident that she would shortly be on shore . In a few minutes she strnck on a led ^ e of rocks , called the Bolder-ridge , very nearly opposite to the sea-houses . We could distinctly read hfr name as she reeled round . "Wat , of Plymouth . " The most intense anxiety pervaded
every class of the numerous spectators . No boat , except the life boat , could venture to put off , without a certainty of destruction ; sud many impatiently beg 3 n to exclaim , Where h rhe lite-boat ? Why do they delay ? But it goon was shown that the persons to whem the care of her was intrusted were waiting , not from fear or in difference , but most wisely . She was carried on wheels sbout half a mile westward , and then was launched . It was a most beautiful sight to see how rapicly and yet how steadily she cut through the fuaming waves . And when she came away with every one of the crew rescued and safe , her approach to land was more like an arrow from a bow , than the motion of a boat . I LMn afraid to s- ^ y for how many yards the came on the crown
of one tremendous wave , which threw her i'Jgn on the beach . The crew consisted of the chief xnate , four men , and two boys ; atd the report they i . \ ake is ttis : —They formed p * rt of the crew of the J . vue London , of Miramachi , and were returning hoa ^ e from Liverpool ( which place they left Autust 25 ) , when in the Gulf of St . Lawrence , lat . 45 , 30 N ., longitude 38 A W they neared the Watt , laden with timber , and hailed her . The crew said Ehe had nine feet of water in the hold , and that they wore about to abandon her , and this they did the next day . About two hours afterwards these men from tbe Jane . London took possession of her , and for nearly six weeks have been in much difficulty and distress . In want of provisions , and worn-out , and fearing last they should all perish in the storm , they resolved to run her on shore at Eastbourne . Considerable suspicion wrs raised as to the truth of
their report , but the general opinion is now that it is correct . They say it was their intentiou to rake her to the first port they reached , four or five boats are busily employed from Boraing to night in bringing her cargo , some very fine timber , on Bhore . As a stranger , I cannot bat admire the judgment , zsal , * nd . integrity which all persons in any manner brought into contact with this accident have shown throughout . Since writing the above , I have bad an opportunity of examining more closely into this extraordinary case , and feel little or no doubt that their 6 tory ia quite true . They had no boat , and though they had an anchor , they had not strength enongh to use it . They had no chart of the Channel , and when they first saw land , it was the Isle of Wight , which they mistook for Beachy-head , and whenthcy came to B « achy-head tLey considered it to be the fcouth Foreland .

. Africa . —Intelligence has been received frona Western Afric * to the second August , ft announces tneTeturn to Fernando Po of the Queen ' s str-amer , Wilberforce , from the ascent of the Niger to the model-farm of the African Civilization Society , and the bringing away of all the peoplo and properly loft by the Niger exp ? difcon . The Wilberforce ascended under command of Lieutenant Webb , with eight or ten Europeans , who volunteered from Fernando Po ; the rest of the ship ' s company being native Africans . "With the exception of the oommaedsr . and one of the volunteers
, att the Whites were laid up withsickne 63 before the Wilberforce reached the coast ; and latterly the engine had been worked by a Black boy , who had learnt its management on board Mr . Jamieson ' s steamer Ethiope ; tEe engineers bains ; siok with the rest . " Such a wreck of property" says a private letter from Liverpool , " as wa * landing at Clarciice Cove never was seen . " The natives had net molested the people at the model-farm ; but Mr . Car , who attempted to ascend trora the coast in a canoe , had , it is supposed , been murdered in the Nun river .
Fatal Accident . —On the morning of Tharsday last , a moss melancholy and fatal acoident occurred at Barr Mill , in the pariah of Baith . A boy named Noble Prentice , about thirteen years of age , had mounted a ladder to put a bell upon a wheel , thongh this was no part of his duty , and boys had been strictly prohibited by the proprietor from doing so . In an instant he was seized by the machinery , and his body mangled in a most shocking manner . His arms wore torn from the trnnk , and his head completely severed from his body . As no eye wa , 3 upon him when the accident happened , it is not known how it originated . The breaking of the bell and the crash of the body were the first intimations of tho melancholy event to thos 9 who were in the room . Ths wheel revolves about thrice in » second , and consequently his death must have been instantaneous . His widowed mother was at tbe time
working in another r om , and her agony at the sigut , and while assisting in collecting the bleeding and quivering members of the boay of her . son , may easily bo imagined . The remains were committed to the grave the same evening . —Ayr Observer , The Late Mr . Bibby of Liverpool . —Investigation at Kirkdalk . —Shortly after twelve o ' clock on Friday , Heiiry Simpson and William Radol ffa were brought up in custody at Kirkdale Court-house , on a oharge of having been concerned in the murder of the late Mr . Bibby , who , it will be recollected , was found dead in a pit near Bootle , on the morning
of the 18 th of July , 1840 , under circumstances of a mysterious character , aud which gave me to a suspicion that he had been unfairly dealt with . Simpson , who is a yonng man of respectful demeanour , was the individual who drove the unfortunate gentlemen from the Royal Bank in that town to Bootle on the night of the fatal occurrence , and Radoliffa had been a policeman on duty on that night in the vioimty of the scene . After a lon ^ aud patient investigation into all the circumstances of the case , the magistrates came to ths decision that thero did not appear sufficient evidence to justify them is committing the prisoners , who were forthwith discharged .
Frightful Explosion . — Between three and four o ' ciook on Wednesday afternoon last tha inhabitants of West Collingwood were thrown into great consternation by a loud explosion . It was quickly ascertained that tho explosion had occurred at the residence of a man named Pinner , a manufacturer of fireworks , and the first object that presented itself to tho persons who ran to the spot was tho Iifeles 6 body of Pinner , ]> iDg amidst a quantity of bricks , shattered pieces of of wood , &c , whilst the entire of the upper story of the house was completely carrried away . Tho body of an old man . an assistant 10 Pinner , was likewise found shockingly disfigured lying ac the back of the premises . No signs of life were perceivable in Pinner or the old man . On proceeding up the stairs of the house , the lower part , extending
to the floor of the second story , which was left standing uuiujured , it was discovered that every vrstige of the roof , walls , and the various articles which had been in the upper room , had entirely desappeared . Jambed against the lower part of the wall of the first story , and near tho top of the stairs , was the body of a lad , a * ed fourteen , with the features dreadfully disfigured and tho body blackened and mutilated . From the statement of an dderiy woman who was engaged by Pinner to superintend his domestic aifairs , it appears that a large quaatity of gunpowder had lately been placed in the upper room for the purpose of making fireworks for tho fifth of November , but iu what manner tho explosion was caused remains a mystery . Several windows in the neighbouring houses were smashed in , and a number of chimneypots thrown down by the explosion .
Miraculous Escape . —A most alarming accident occurred a few evcrimgs ago on the Brandling Junction Railway—a whole passenger train having be 6 n thrown off the line , and the carriages tumbled topsyturvy over an embankmont eight or nine feet high , and yet the passenger . - , of whom there were between forty and fifty , escaped without having sustained tho slightest injury . The particulars of this occurrence are briefly these : —The seven o ' clock train from Sunderiand to Newcastle started &a usual , and peoceeded to near where the railway crosses Cleadonlane , where the eng i neer frit some slight interruption and immediately turned off the steam . The train was then moving at the rate of about fifteen miles an hour . The sensation was but momentary , but the
direction of the engine was suddenly changed , it having left the line , and was approaching diagonally the edge of a tearful precipice , formed by the embankment oJ the railway , about eight or nine feet in height . Tbe engineer aud his assistant maintained their positions on the engine with the greatest composnre , which in the end proved most fortunate , for had they leaped off they would , in all probability , have Io 3 t their lives . Un tbe engine went , followed by its tender , over the embankment , through a quickset hedge at the bottom , into the adjoining field , aud was finally brought to a 6 tand-stiJl teveral yards from the railway . The engine maintained its erect position the wholo time , and sustained no injury , with the exception of the pipe which carries the
water from th « tender to trie boiler , and which was brokt-n asunder . The engine-man instantly opened the safety-valve , to allow the escape of the steam , and then de&ccnded from his perilous position . In the meantime , the most heartrending cries were heard from the carriages , which were thrown together in a state of indescribable confusion . There were five carriages , two of them being fir 9 t-class and three second-clas ? , attacned to the engine . Fortunatly , the connecting rod between the tender and the first carriage broke , rnd thus separated the engine from the traiD . The first carriage remained upon tho line ; the next , being diasev . red from its companions , was thrown over the embankment ; the n » xt , a first-c / ass carriage , wan crushed against the following one , and all the others were partially overturned , some of them having been thrown over the embankment ,
against which they rested obliqcly at the bottom . Tne scene at thi 3 moment wjs horrytying in the extreme . Some of the passengers were escaping by the windows which were uppermost ; others crept below ; men , women , and children were seen scrambling over , round , and beneath the vehicles , anxious to secure their own safety . On proceeding a few yards down the line , the cause of the accident was soon discerned . There lay the mutilated remains of a horse , which had evidently strayed upon the line from one of the adjoining fields . It was cut completely in pieces . Intelligence of the catastrophe was soon conveyed to the next station , and also to Sunderiand , and a-. si .-tance was instantly despatched . Happily , medical aid was not required . The engine ana car najies did no injury to the way , and the eight o ' clock , train traversed it as though , nothing had occurred .
A Delicate affair in High Life . —A noble Prince has long been attached to the elucst daughter of a Noblo Duke , whose family , on one side , claims certain consanguinity with that of the Sovereign . The result of the mutual passion existing on the pare of tho Prince and the lady , renders an atonement by marriage now absolutely necessary . The lady is iu a way to become a mother , and , in the short spac . of three months , will enjoy the blessings , or feel the pangs , of maternity . Her Ladyship's situation is , of conrse , now unable to be any longer concealed ; and her father has communicated with tha Prince's father upon the tubject . His Royal Highness immediataiy assented to the necessity of an union between his son and the Noble Lady ; and the Prince
himself is anxious to make the reparation which lies in his power . But , according to the terms of the Royal Marriage Act , which was passed in the time of George III , no member of the Royal Family can espouse any one without the previously-obtained consent of the Sovereign . Were the Prince and the Lady in question to be united wi'hout ^ uch consent , the marriage would bo illegal , and the offspring thereof illrgi'iinate . The Queen has , therefore , been applied to , in the present emergency ; and ^ Her Majesty haB , wo learn , refused her sanction to th e union ; aud all attempts to induce her to alter her decision are vain . Her Majesty ' s consent is not alou . " . sufficient ; that of the Privy Council mutt also . *> e obtained , after a year ' s notice formally given . Her Majesty ( cr her Privy Council ) argues thus : — •'* It is possible my children may die ; then comes the -King of Hanover , who is very old ; after him . Prince' George of Hanover , who is yery sickly ;
next the D uke of Sussex ; and then tho Puke 01 Cambridge . Now , if all these events were to happen , the Prince alluded to would Btand an excellent chanca of assnn . ^ ntj the sceptre also . In tbiB case , a subjeot becomes tne Queen of England , should the Prince at present espouse the lady , and such * contingency , however remote and improbable it may appear , must not be allowed to exist . " So , we hear , reasons the Que «» ; and we should fjuppose her deci-ion is also backed by the advics of at least some of her Ministers and advisers ; we say " some , " because we can sta te , upon authority , th 3 t the Duke of Wellington is ia favour of the union . Surely this young Prince , who is . bo ready to maka atonement lor the injury he has inflicted upon a too confiding girl , should be allowed the fall and free exercise of his most honourable atfd praiseworthy sentiments aud intentions , and abandon his r . igbt to tk » . ' succersion . He might even do this trt professing to be 3 Koman Caiholic .

A large Ceylon- elemunt , harnessed liko a hor ?^ , but with a proportionately hugo collar and traces , passed through Fleet-street , Cheapside , and other streets of London on Wednesday afternoon , drawing ono of Hy I ton's vans of trained animals , to which the docile animal belonged . The late reported robbery of diamonds of the value of £ 9 , 000 , at Cevent-garden theatre , from the person of a foreign diamond merchant , of the name of Wolff , turns out to bo a fabrication . Tha " merchaut , ' ^ it seems , owea considerable sums of money to various parties both on the Continent and in England , and in order to " make a purse , " he trumped up the tale , and absconded to Brussels , whither he has been pursued and arrested by a creditor to whom he was indebted aborit £ 1000 .
Dreadful Death . —On Sunday morning a Mrs , Shearman , residing at High-street , Lambeth left home for the purpose of seeing her husband , who is an inmate of Guy's Hospital , having met with an accident ten days ago , looking in her four children , a ^ ed fifteen , five , and four years , and an infant fourteen months old , and a neighbour ' s child aged three years . Qn her return home at half-past ten o ' ciook she found the infant and one of her eisters sitting before the fire , the former much burnt about the head , and the other child informed her mother that Sarah ( the eldest child ) was dead , and lying np in
the garret , and on the poor creature going up stairs she was horror-struck at finding the remains of the poor girl burnt to a cinder , lying on a bundle ofraga . Search was made for the other two children , who wore found unhurt in an out-house in the garden . From the statement of tho second child it appears that the deceased was in the ace of putting a saucepan on the fire , when her clothes caught fire , and in an instant she was in an entire blaza . That sho made for the garret stairs , where she 6 at until the whole of her clotnes were burnt off , and then crawled to the bed , on which she was found as above described .
Curious Coincidence . —Law !—A proof of the " glorious uncertainty of the iaw ' was shown at the last quarter sessions for tha county of Dorset-Two men were indicted jointly for a felony ; upon being called up to plead guilty or not guilty , one of them pleaded " guilty , " and the other " not guilty . " At that momsnt an attorney stepped up to the pri sonar who pleaded guilty , ana told him he was employed to defend him ; the prisoner then withdrew his plea of guilty , and pleaded not guilty . The trial proceeded , and at the close the jury acquitted the one who had at first pleaded guilty , and convioted tbe other who had pleaded not guilty . —Sherborne Journal .
Mutiny in Newcastle Gaol—It appears that above thirty soldiers of the 61 st Regiment , who are prisoners iu Newcastle Gaol , having been convicted by court martial for various military offonces , and sentenced to different periods of imprisonment , broke out into open mutiny&ind refused to work , alleging that the food was so bad that they were hungering Several of the magistrates went to the gaol for the purpose of investigating the circumstances , the result of which will , no doubi , be satisfactory . — Newcastle Journal . - On the arrival of the Elk engine at Nine Elms , on Tuesday night , with the six o ' clock train from Southampton , a lark was found in the ash-pan ( within six inches of the fire-bars ) , which had recuivud no further injury from this novel species of bird-trap than iho singing of a few tai -feathers . It is now in the possession of the engine-driver , and appears quite lively .
Ax the lato Rumford Quarter Sessions , the magistrate had occasion to desire a policeman to fetch into the court "two Ik . ' drafs . " The man , a fine specimen of the animal for which Essex is bo famous , instead of going to the bank , took the note to a chrmifit's , and returned into oaurt with black draughts , which the worthy magistrate took ( into his hand ) , amidst a roar of laughter from the bench . A Libeiial Nobleman . —Cashiobury House , with its parks and gardens , has been open to the public every Monday and Thursday throughout tha year for many year . s past . The hours of admission to the house and gardens are from eleven to one in
the morning , and from two to fivo in the afternoon . Admittance to the park ip free at all times . These regulations were established by the late Earl of Essex , who was delighted that the public should thus share in the eujoyment of-his estate and possessions . Wo have heard that ho even lent his pinto to the pic-nic parties who frequented the Swiss Cottage in the grounds , until Rome one repaid his generosity by dishocesty . Still the public are allowed to use this cottage for the samo purpose * many pic-nic parties consequently come off here , and vans filled with visitors from the metropolis come to Cashiobury . —Athanamm .
NOKTHLEACH HoUSK OF CORRECTION . — -The followiug reply from Sir James Graham has been received to the memorial addressed to him as Secretary of State by the Jury upon the late unfortunate sufferer Boale : — " Whitehall , Oct . 27 , 1842 . " Sir , —I am directed by Secretary Sir James Graham to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 25 ih instant , enclosing a memorial from the inquest Jury which eat on the body of Charles Beale , late a prisoner in Northleach House of Correction , and to acquaint you that before he received your communication , he had taken measures for having a full inquiry made into the matters to which your letter refers . " 1 am , sir , your obedient servant , "S . M . PHILLIPS . " To Mr . J . Goding , Cheltenham . " The Late Attempted Murder in Dundee . — We understand that James Duff , the unfortunate sufferer in tho lato diobolical deed , has steadily improvod for sorao days back , and that hopes are now entertained of bis recovery , lie still lies in the cottage where he fir-t found a shelter , and was able on Saturday to be taken from bed a few minutes to allow it to be made up . During the last week Mackenzie was examined by the authorities , aud as
the precognition is not yet olosed , it i 3 not true , as reported in other papers , that he has been committed for trial . Another report has got afloat , that Mackenzie ' s wife gave premature birth to a child , and is since deed . There is no truth in this report either . The pi-t ^ l has not jet bee n recove ' ed . A broker was brought over frcm Edinburgh who sold a pistol to a man answering the description of Mackenzie ; but on being confronted with him , we under-Btaud , refused to swear positively that Mackenzie was ihe man . —Dundee Warder .
Fatal Shipwreck . —It is our painful duty to record the total loss of the schooner Friends , of Carlisle , with all hands on bsard . The Friends sailed from Port Carlisle for Liverpool on Friday , the 21 st iust , laden with alabaster , with a crew of four hands . There was a stiff breeze blowing at the timo from N . N . E . Towards midnight the wind veoied round to the westward , blowing a complete hurricane , and in endcavonring to return up the Solway Firth the ill-fated vessel struck upon Robin Kigg , and in a short time became a total wreck . Tho master of the vesse ) , Captain Baxter , was Lighly esteemed among a wido circle of friends and acquaintances on both sides of tho border , and the sympathy expressed on the loss of so good a man is well worthy the occasion . A portion of the bulwarks and the foremast have been washed ashore at Allanby , but no trace of the hull of the vessel has vet been obaorvable . —Carlisle
Journal-Canada . —The Halifax Morning Post of the 18 th insfc . gives , in a second edition , later news from Canada than that derived from the New York papers . Mr . Baldwin had been defeated by a majority of 41 . Mr . Murray , the Conservative cauuidate , had consequently been returned . Mr . Lafontaine bad defeated Mr . Roe , and carried his re-election . The P arliament was prorogued on tho 12 th instant , by Sir Charles Bagot , with a short speech , simply thanking the Legislature for the zeal and assiduity with which they had considered and perfected the measures of the session , as well as for the supplies they had voted , aud exhorting the members to use their personal itiluence in their several districts to promote the harmony and good feeling which it had been his endcavuur to establish .
Dreadful Collision at Sea . —A letter from Capt . James Codman , juu ., of the ship Sarah Parker , at New York from Singapore , to the owners in this city , tells the following fearful Btory : — ' * The collision took place on the ! 3 &hof September , in lat . 14 17 N ., Ions . ' ., 49 02 W ., during the night , in one of those tremonduous squalls which happen in the variables . The ship was going about ten knots at tho time , and the darkness so great that I could not see the brig at the instant of str king , though I had been looking to leeward but an instant before , and was then standing by the main rigging , and all the watch at stations , to clue down the fore and main topsails , if necessary . I had already clewed down the mizen topsail , the squall being very violent from W . bv S ..
and the ship steering N . N . W . The brig must have been goiug very rapidly also . She showed no light , and I think had not tho rain wade it so Egyptian dark , they might hare seen ours , which is constantly burning in the night , and chines from the deck-house windows . Poor fellows ! they must have sunk , as they were seen very near about twenty minutes after , and at daylight nothing could bo seen , though we lay by , and it became nearly calm soon after loainK eight of the brig . I could render no assistance , as ire had to &train every nerve to keep afloat , which we only accomplished by the quiet , and at the same time energetic , behaviour of the men . who keDt their stations .
and obeyed my orders with as little confusion aa if we were practising evolutions for amusement , and after getting cleat , as Ibave said above , worked well and quick . Much credit is due to the chief officer and carpenter ( in fact they are both carpenters ) for their indefatigable exertions ia repairing , as well as to all hands , for in thirty-six hours we had eighteen new timbers in and three streaks planked up and chimed , and made some sail on our course with a light breeze It was , however , a long time before the ship was pafe from bad weather , as overy beam , timber , and knee , and breasthook and deck plank forward of the fureswifcer was Stove .

Singular Acr op Self-Mutilation . —rA most extraordinary and determined ace was coiunntu-d in Worcester gaol oa Wednesday , by a man named James Fmcher , who had been apprehended as a deserter .., and lodged in the prison to await the determination of his case .

The Arabian Nights Revived . —The H , tro of Caen tells , in all gravity , t !> : e /' allowing outraceonsly absurd story :- — " One of tbe most celebrated 'shots oi Caen having for several days beat the country round without putting up aay game , thought he would fry by tho sea-side , iu tha neighbourhood ot Oui ^ vrtham . As lie Was crossing the river Orne in a small boat , he saw two birds flying towards him , and , with hid usual promptitude and certainty of aim , fired hia gun , and one bird dropped iuto the river . While the sportsman was directing the boat towards it , the other . bird alighted close to its dead companion , and , would have soon suffered the same fate , h ; ai it uot
risen again , and come and alighted upon 'ho gunner s shoulders , and suffored itself to be taken by the hand . This was sufficiently surprising ; but how nw : h greater was his astonishment when he found them to be a pair of doves , each having a ling round its nock , set with diamonds , and having engraved on it , * Ale . Vic . and Al . 1810 , ' and-a . heart pierced with two darts . Whence camo this pair ? Can the letters mean anything else than Alexaniirina Victoria and Albert , and did not the birds belong to the Q » etn of England ! Time may tell , but this is our opinion , which is confirmed by tho value of the diamonds , for which a jeweller at Caen has , it ia said , offered £ 12 . 000 .

LETTER II . " It is a ficantliil for ai true Briton to drag two chains at once . "—Swift . Dear Rafter , —It has been the policy of our rulers , Whigs or Tories , to endeavour to make ns bslieive that we can skip about best in a light pair of fetters 1 and for this purpose the faction out of v ower have never failed to impress us with tho belief tb : it theirs islilways the lightest ; but why the people should wear them at all is a question which both agree they sticukl
never ov « n discuss . In this assumption of tho Whisjs and Tories of course there is not a particle of honesty , jsistice , or common flense ; but with their assumption there is what is much worse than mere assumptionpower ! mbid , despotic powev is thoir only argument ! ! strong walls and cold irons their proofs , iu which their unhappy victims are competed to drag . out a silent , unwilling , -dying- acquiescence ; and yet , O God of Justice , there are men lnying claim , almost to tho Divine beatitudes , who can calmly sit empurpled on the judgment seat , and iaud and order compliance to this blood-sucking system .
I told you , in my last , I believed the object of the tuliug faction was to eeiz-y « n all the leaders of the Chartist movement . Alan ! since then , the sound of unjust judgment has b « n held over irnny a good man ' a bead ; and the police have actually been prumature , in di . ifing their white trousers this season , their masters knowing ( I presume * they had so much dirty work to do . The Whigs no doubt . ire glad of all this , and silently rejoice at the arrests , —but shall we liko them the mere for their base jr > y ? Of them wa know that they Bet the example t » the Tories ; and
that the latttr are doing no more than they have done . I hate the Whigs the more for their rascally silence ; and I believe they are doing , at this moment , more injury to the cause by intrigue thtm evc-r the Tories would stoop to do . The policy of the Whigs has evar been marked by duplicity , low cunning , false-pramising , and petty devices ; inconstant in their every move , grovelling , and mean in seeking . for power . The English Wbiga would hang the Irish people Vo obtain power ; and tha Irish Whigs would shoot the English people to keep it .
I bate a Tory ! the very name 18 iv firebrand , by the false iignt of which I can look back through the long night of my country" 8 dark gloom , and behold the spirits of her " happier dead " rejoicing over tha expiring embers of pitch caps and faggots J but a Whig ! a treacherous Whig 1 the English language does not con 7 ey to me another word ao loathing . If I were asked to give name to an object with body of the cauielion , head cf the serpent , hiud feet of the ox , "with eyes of the basilisk , displaying th 6 treachereu 3 smile of the coquette-, and having all the cunning of the fax , I would exclaim that loathsome object is iikt ) nothing on earth but a Whig ! ( Jail it 1 Wiiig ? It would not be difficult to trace ia the first fountttra of society , the lineaments if our modern
Whigs . Mao clini ( 8 with tenacious adhcbion to any object or system which he conceives will assist in protecting him from tbe attacks of a stronger power than himself . A single illustration from Holy Writ will sufficiently show this . We see Adam , in , his denuded state , shield himself with the trees from the face of Almighty God j in like manner have the early tribts of his children thrown thtmselveu under what they conceived to be the protecting shades of civil Goternmenls , which by degrees became more insolent , more oppressive , more tyrannic , and more greater evils than those which they wore formed to correct , till finally , by innumerable encroachments on the people's liberties , they , too , like the archdemons of Lucifer iu tha realms of the Most High ,
conceived the daring project of dethroning tbe power that brought them into existence ! These , I think , you will readily admit , were the Whigs of early growth , and little did they differ from the crop that has been recently cut . If the Whigs were sincere in their professions to ameliorate the condition of the people , why do they not give the people the chance to exclaim—•• Well , bad as the men were when in power , they do not attempt to sting now that they are powerless . They sympathise with the persecuted , and they aid ua against the persecutor ; they hold public meetings , and they raise subscriptions for tho defence of tho victims of their own avowed principles . " Did thoy do this , then might their professions of patriotism go hand in hand with their acts of philanthropy—then might thuy
go a great length in disarming those who show up their rascality . But no J the hypocritical fellows . ' they would first imprison and transport all the good and true , buy over all the shams , aud then , with sieck faces , led on by some broad-brimmed fhiend , ( wkom they would manage to make their dupe , ) # > me umot . gst tbe people , like the Pharisees of old , declaring that they knew the laws better than others . ' and , of course , were more tit to become their leaders , as they know what would answer them better than they knew themselves ! These wise legislators then having got fairly before the people , by first adopting all their Six Points , would commence a tirade against the plans of the old leaders , and by piecemeal would break up the present organisation : the confidence of the peoDls thus partially
obtained , and their organisation rendered powerless , the money-grufebiiig scheme would commence , and one hundred Murrays , Smiths , and Aclands would bo sent about soviDg the beautiful Indian corn seed ; then would some big O , or some sham-leader of the Ulster-Kadicals , ( by-thobye , what has become of tho Ulster Association ? I suppose you will answer , aisk Rochdale ?) big with confluence , stand and exclaim , " Well , gentlemen , you know me long and well ; have I ever deceived you ? ( The paid hacks would shout , "No , never . "! I have been a long time battling for you ( you have ); and is there one man here the worse for taking my advice ? ( not one . ) I gained emancipation for Ireland , and , with , the blessing of God , I will make England tno . envy of surrounding nations . ( Indeed
you will . ) We must divide the country into equal districts , and appoint collectors . E very shilling will be a nail ia the coffin of the Tories . We must appoint a managing committee of twelve the payment of j £ 5 to constitute a committee man , and here to begin with his £ 20 as a subscription of myuelf and my three sons — -Ibravo , bravo ; is'ut that liberal ? who can doabt his sincerity )—bat , gentlemen , before I conclude I must give notice of a motion for next week , relative to the People ' s Charter . It is downright folly to look for impracticabilities ; you know I always said Universal Suffrage was nonsense . We must setk for the greatest practicable extension of the Suffrage , and as for Annual Parliaments , it would create too much inconvenience . I think Triennial Parliaments much more adapted t < j the present times , but I like tbe Ballet , the honest Ballot —( he ' s a Briton every inch of him )—and as for Payment of Members , you all know I never-was againBt
being paid—( notyoc )—uor did I ever work for nothing —( never )—nor never will —( devil doubt you ) . I was always for the instalment principle , and I agree with Shacman Crawford , that the Repeal Question ought not to be mixed op with the People's Charter . Repeal should bide its time , it was forced on me once by Feargus O'Connor , prematurely , and what did we gain by it ? one solitary vote . We Bhall never offend our cause with a vote again —( shouts of never , never ) . Gentlemen , I now conclude by giving notice of my motion , and by handing in £ 10 more as tho nibuxiptions of Joseph Hume and John Arthur Roebuck , and I beg to move that the latter gentleman be appointed as the legal director of this association , and that all monies be forwarded to the Central Board at the Corn Exchange , Dublin . " This is the tine picture cf these political pedlars ; but we are not all imprisoned yet Wemayyct astoiiish them by playing at " one down and another come on . "
' -. Some fellow accused me once of having a knowledge of a plot , and I now take this opportunity of disclosing it to you ; you may guess at the actow , though thai * name ia legion ; there being scarcely a town in England that they have not their scouts to tell " how ¦ the cat jumps ; " but as every bad system carries with it the means of its own deatractfon , so it will be .

Of all tha goodly nostrums that they have of late years submitted to the rmblic for the removal of the national malady of distress and wretchedness that pervades ths laid , acd which , like the canker worm , ia ever gDawing on the viials of society , what one single measure have they carried out tending to stem the torrent of public discontent ? Da we not sfcUl behold the diseaHe of the body politic increasing rapidly ? its numerous branches lopping off daily without relieving the unfortunate patients from the withering consumption that , besets its p . ilid and decaying carcase ? I am aware that extremes in every case should be carefully avoided ; but vrnen a patient has submitted to be physicked' and drueged and bled by quacks , as well as by some of the ablest of tbe political faculty , without the sliclitest apparent symptoms of renewed health and vigour , but that on the contrary , be becomes worse and worse every day , it is bigh time that one bold Btrneele for national redemption should take place , that
we should not tamely seo our country go down to her grave without applying some elixir magnum that would either kill or cure ! That we believe to be the People ' s Charter ; that we have set our hearts npon ; and that we will have , else the dungeons will have us to suffocation , r Tyrants may break the spirits of men who know tne \ r riehts ; but they can never make them bad ; they may sacrifice a Hoffei , but a Tell will arise ; they may kill : a Clayton and a H <>) berry , bnt vengeance will be sworn over thovr nwrtjred bodies ; they may impriBoB a White and a C > oper , frut they will not long linger without companions ; t&ey may transport a Frost and an Eilis , but tho indignant spirits of those who remember their worth and are still left behind cannot bo pent up in their housa of clay ! Neither the bludgeon of the blue cout . nor the eabre ot the red coat can suppress tbe spirit of freedom ; nor has ever the blood of martyred innocents beau able to quench the holy flume when once kindled in the bosoms of a dd * tt-rniined people . -
Malthas has said , " That if a country can only be rich hy running a successful race for low wages , he should be disposed to say , perish snch riches . " So say I : and thus far I am a Malthusian . Here we behold a successful race has been won for low wages ; and here I pause to exclaim . " pcrisn such richea ! " Riches accumulated by the low wages of starving millions ! riches accumulated for the sumptuous gluttony of the hiuahty few r riches , sprinkled with the tears aud blood of hungry-innocents an 4 famishing serfs ! riches piled
together for : 1 Bat tis no wonder there should be famine in the land when so much of the people ' s Bubstauce is taken away fer the n « e of palaeeB and churches' ! £ 737 , 140 883 , according tothenncontradicted statement of Mr . Maqueeu ; yet with ail these vast sums of money passing annually through the people ' s hands , are , there not thousands daily who can * not procure bn © substantial meal ? yea , there have been instances known of some families , consisting of five and six persons , sitting down to a day ' s repast having to divine , or rather subdivide , their whole fare ,
consisting of seven or ei « ht potatoes ! Nature , nor Natnre's God , ha 8 not decreed that there should be such a pieponderance of riches on the one hand , and such wretch 8 d destitution on the other . Oh how will a Norbury , a Jeffries , or an Abinger plead before the Father of the Poor ; md the Afflicted on the awful day of retribution ? Hut the monster-arm of oppressioa does not even st&p here , but is stretched forth even before the dead body of its departed victim ! and the boweis of the earth , the natural and rightful claimant * of its kindred , is made to refuse a passage to
" That bourne from whence no traveller returns , " until the cold hand of selfish avarice , nnder the ve ?! of religious coreraony and clerical usage be satisfied ! Well may the Turks exclaim , " These Christian dogs pursue their dead even to the verge of the yawning grave ; "'but all their wicked perpetration of the strong against tho weak will yet have their useful and beneflcenu tendencies , though hidden from their vile enactora ; all will tend to prepare the public mind for a unity of thought and action , when the omnipotent voice of an injured nation shall shout from tne watcatowers— ¦ " Awake ! arise ! or be for ever fallen .
