CAEUSliE . —Revision or the Bubgfss List . —JsiPOiiAST Decision of she Mator and Asszssoxs—A few days ago , a Coart was held for the revi .-ion o ? the burgess list ; nearly three hundred claims had been put in by the burgesses of Butcherpate ward , in consequence of the overseer , Mr . John Donald , hiving intentionally left off their names , though many of them had been on the former register , as sanctioned by the late Mayor and Assessors . The Mayor , George Gill Roncsey , Esq . enquired of the Overseer the reason he had left off the r . ames of the various claimants : when he stated
ihfct they were not rate-payers and he had therefore jw en-ered their names in the rate book . The Mayor told him that his conduct wa 3 very improper in . hasattempting to disfranchise so great a number of burgesses ; and that he had a right to put every person ' s name upon the rate-book , otherwise , the nt- would not be a legal one . Mr . Donald justifies li ? conduct on the ground that no person is entitled to be placed on the list who is not a bonnfide rate payer ; bnt in this opinion the Mayor and Aftessars did cot coincid-. ; so that they established nearly a : ! lie claims ai good , and which were accordingly pliced upon the register .

Fatal Railwat Accidents . —On Saturday Mr . Lewis , the corner for Essex , held an inquest in the union poor-house , near Chelmsford , on the body of Richard Smith , aged fifteen , who came by his death under the following shocking circumstances . From the evidence of a watchmen employed on theEastern Counties Railway , at the works near the above town , it appeared that on Monday , while stationed st a bridge adjacent to Cherry Garden-lane , a train of empty waggons , drawn by an engine , passed down the line towards Widford . Directly it had g <* ne through the bridge , his attention was attracted by loud screams , when , upon looking in the direction whence they proceeded , he discovered the deceased lying upon his beliy outside the rails . The train had passed over him , and had almost severed his left
thigh from the body . Witness lost no time in procuring assistance , and conveying deceased to the infirmary in the union poor-house . On the road thither the deceased , who was not employed on the railway , said , he had come from Southampton to see his brother , who was in the company ' s service , —feeliDg very tired , he endeavoured to get a lift down the line by the train in question , and in jumping up to one of the waggons his foot slipped , and he fell on therail , when the rest of the train , amounting to six or eight waggons , passed over him . Deceased lingered until Thursday , when he died . Verdict " Accidental Death .

The evidence adduced went to prove that , at the period of the slip , which was upwards of fifi-y tons in weight , theunfortnaate decfeased persons , with many other excavators , were loading a sva . sjgon-train with earth . S <> sudden was the accident , that it was impossible for them to escape , and two other 3 were baried with them . When got out both were found to be dead .

not sa'icncd wuh t . ie qusaiity of work t : ; e trade then effcrdtd them , demanded of the owners wasres for the days they vrere laic ick . One of these bonds has been laid before the Attorney-General , and the fuilowlii " is his opinion upon it : — " I am of opinion that , under the ciau-e referred to , the men are not entitled to their wages on a temporary cessation of demand , and that it is not necessary that there should be a total cessation of demand in order to prevent the workman irom r . covering wages for the time they are not at work . I think the magistrates have eo jurisdicuon in surh a case ; ihe remedy , if any , is Dy action . "—Newcastle Journal .

They select the darkest nights for their furtive purposes , and have succeeded in taking away with them the hives and the stores they contain . When they have arrived at & convenient distance from the spot on whieh they have committed their depredations , they enter some field on the road Kid& , in which , under a hedge , they
dig as many holes as they have hives , and by introducing ignited brimstone into the same , cover them with the hives , boitcm downwards , by which means the bees are effectually destroyed , whilst they possess themselves of the richly-stored ccmbs , with which they make tbe best of their way out of the neighbourhood , leaving tho hives behind them . The cottage poor belonging to the villages in the above district depend chiefly upon the produce of their bets for the enjoyment of their private domestic comforts , and the wretches must be callous , indeed , who would rob ths dependant poor of their aU ..

The committee havjDg made tbeir report , to the effect that some immediate plan should be adopted , eo as to prevent the smuggling of French and foreign bilks through the Custom-house , added that a notice had appeared in the public journals , which had the appearance of being official , intimating that it , was the intention of Government to prosecute the inquiries into the fraudulent transactions at the Custom-housi-,

A lengthened discnssion ensued , in the conr 3 e of which it was stated that very important information had been obtained of the practices at the Custom-house , when it was resolved for tbe present not to call any meeting oi the trade , but to wait to ascertain the result of any investigation instituted by he Government .

Kussell , late of Nottingham , was found in the river Tyne , twelve miles above Newcastle , on Wednesday week , supposed to have lab in the river since the 26 th ult ., tbe day on which he loft his lodgings in Newcastle . There were no marks of violence on the body , and it is supposed that he fell into the water accidentally in attempting to ford the river His wife , who came
here in quest of him , arrived in town the very day on whioh the body was discovered , and she is now in a strange place , with three infant children , in a state of the ntmost destitution . Our reason for stating this , is in hopes that some good Chartists will sympathise with her condition , aud contribute a trifle , however small , towards her relief ; and as she will remain in Newcastle for a short time , any sum transmitted to Mr . James S ' mulair , No . 3 , Pipewell Gate , Gateshead , will be thankfully received , and acknowledged through the Star .
Murdek And Robbiiry In Dundee —Edinburgh, Saturday, Oct. 15.—We Learned Last Night (Friday;
MURDEK AND ROBBIiRY IN DUNDEE —EDINBURGH , Saturday , Oct . 15 . —We learned last night ( Friday ;
tne toiiowicg particulars relating to a case ot murder ptrpe ! rated in Dundee on Thursday night , which for cold-blooded atrocity has had few parallels in this parts of th : country . On Thnsday morning two men , who gave their names as M'Kenzie and Dnff , and who appeared to be substantial north-country graziers , on their way homo from the Falkirk Tryst , called at Mr . Croali's coach-ofnee , Prince ' s-street here , and enquired into var ous particulars regarding the starting of ibe Dundee coaeh , which leaves here at ten o ' clock . As they had business to transac in one of tha banks , which dogs not open till ten o ' clock , they requested that the coach might bo delayed a few minutes , which was promised . About
five minutes after ten , Duff , who was a short , stout man , returned by himself , and asked whether the coach could not bo delayed a lhtle longer till his iriend , M Kerz e , finished their mutual business at the bank . This could not be acceded to , and the coach set off without either of them . M'Keuzie , vrho is taller than his companion , and remarkable from one or two projecting front teeth , joined his friend at the coach office soon after ; the coash hact goDo , and both took an omnibus and joined the = tfamer just as she was about to leave Newhaven . It would appetir that M'Ktnzlc had received Duff ' s tr . ouey ot the biiik , and had it in his possession . There were two steamers starting across tho water st the same time , and it is remarkable that M'Kenzie took the wrong one ; but as they both reached
Pettycur at the same time , the mistake was of no nioment , further than that it gave rise to much excitemtnt on the part of Duff , who expressed great anxiety lest he should lose sight of his friend and his money . Both parties then took their scats ou the outside of ihe Dundee coach , near the guard , and proceeded in this way to Cupar Fife , without having much intercourse with each other , M'Kenzie employing himself during the greater part of the way in a Jow chant or muttering , " of which , however , nothing could bo made . At Cupar a change of position took place . Both parties came down from tho coach , and on remounting , M'Ker . zie took his seat near the driver , while Duff kept his old place beside the gmrd , and continued so to Newport . On crossing the Tay ferry M'Kenzic ' s manner was observed to
be somewhat agitated , so much so , that a person who kDew him remarked to another , that that was Mr . M'Kenzie , an extensive cattle-dealer , but that he seemed tohavogota slap over the fingers , thus referring the strangeness of hisrcar > uerto some supposed loss he had sustained . The coach arrived at Dundee about four o ' clock in the afternoon , and our information regarding them from that time is not so precise . What is certain is , that in the evening two men , answering in all respects to these persons , and of whose identity with them our informant had no doubt , were walking out of Dundee ; and when btyend the Law , on the northern extremity of the to r . vu , aud close to theNtwtyle railtvay , the short man ¦ svas shotfrota behind with a Distol , and , itissupposed , left for dead on the road . Tho poor man , however ,
recovered a l ! t ; le , snd was able , we have been told , to crawl to so : ue house in the neighbourhood , or otherwise obtained assisiance , and bad sufficient strength left to teil the whole story , and to fix upon his companion as his murderer , charging him at the same time with having £ 1 , 000 of his property in his possession . Information waa immediate l y sent to the Dundee police-office , and a search being set on foot , the other was apprehended at eipht o ' clock yesterday ( Friday ) morning in one of the carriages in the first train of the Dundee and Arbroatb Railway . The murdered man died at five o ' clock yesterday morniDg . Tbe rumour in Dundee when oar informant left was to the effect , that ; the two parties had dined together in Dundee , and that Duff asked his companion for his property ; that he evaded the request
under the pretence that that was not a proper place for settling their aeconnts , but proposed that they should both proceed to a friend of his a few miles out in the country , where they would get a bed for the night , and might settle their affairs quietly . To this in an evil hour the unhappy man consented . It is said that the tall man bought a pistol from a young man in a respectable ' ironmonger ' s shop in Dundee . It is remarkable that Thursday was the fast-day in that town , so that he would have some difficulty in finding a shop open . It is also said that when he was apprehended a large sum of money was found upoa him . This herrid case has excited , as well it might , a great sensation in Dundee , both from the respectable sphere ia which both parties had previously been moving , and from the deliberate villany -sith . which the murder must have been perpetrated ..

Winter Assizes . —It was stated on good authority during the late special commission at Stafford , that it is intended by Government to have a general winter assizes throughout the kingdom , to commence in the early part ot December .
Intoxication . —On Thursday last an iron-lifter at Dun-iyvan , of the name of John Black , undertook , for a trifling wager , to swallow a mutchkin of whisky without taking it from his head . A previous allowance had quickened his appetite for the undertaking , and , all things being ready , John swallowed the mortal dote , and one glass more ! when he hied his way home from Coatbridge to Duudy van in a state of utter stupefacatiou ; am :, though one of the most bardy and powerful nj- n at iho work , the poisonous potation wrought , so rapidly on his constitution that in less than four hours from swallowing the draught he was found a life . e . ss corpse , leaving a hapless . wife and numerous 'amiiy to lament his intemperate and murderous folly . — Glasgow Chronicle .
State of Trade in Paisley . —The finer descriptions ot goods connected with the Paisley trade continue as dull as ever , but great numbers of the workmen are turning their hands to lighter and plain work , so far as it can be obtained , and , we are sorry to state , weavers are so abundant that webs of this description can only be occasionally obtained as a personal tavour . From the limited supply at the command of the Relief Committee , and the equally limited and inadequate allowance given out by them to those in want , privation and sufferings have at
present to be borne by hundreds and hundreds of industrious families , which it is ? most appalling to think of , and which it is a shame to the country should be permitted in it . We may state , that to be deprived of food for one and two days at a time is quite a common occurrence ; and then , at the termination of that period , the pawning of the last shirt from the back , the last rag of blankets from the bed , or some other equally necessary article , is the means usually resorted to for satisfying the irresistible call of hunger . —Glasgow Chronicle .
The Tariff Beef and Pohk . —Since our last publication , considerable excitement has been produced in the city by importations of salted beef and pork , which have been retailed in various places at 4 d . per pound . Messrs . Wesilake and Co ., Forestreet hill , were the first to announce that they had a supply of" American porlc and Hamburg beef , at 4 d . a Ib . ; " and on Saturday , pnrcicuiarly in the evening , after the artisans had received their wages , the shop was crowded with customers ! , t ° whom several hundreds of pounds weight of the imported meat were sold . We have seen some of the beef and pork—both were v ry good , and some of the latter was exceedingly fine . Tha beef is now selling at 3 Jd . per lb . —Exeter Western Times .
Unappreciated Genius . —The Marquis of Londonderry is an ill-used author . Hits last performance , as our readers aie aware , was rejected , the other day , by the Conservative Committee of the Sanderlaud Library . Slighted , therefore , on the Wear , it proceeded in a huff to the Tees , and knocked at the door of the public Library in Stockton . Well ! the question was put to the vote whether the work should be admitted . Two gontlemeu said "Aye ! " the remainder said ""No ! " "Tho Noes have it , " said the Chairman ; and the book was turned irom the door . " Too oad I "—Gateshead Observer .

LETTER FROM MR . JOHN CAMPBELL TO SIR JAMES GRAHAM . Kirkdale Gaol , Sunday , Oct . 16 , 1842 . Sir ,, —My name ia John Campbell , I am a Chartist , I am your political opponent , I have done my best , am doing my best , and will continue to do my best , to destroy your unjust power . I was arrested at my shop , 180 , Hoibomv London , on Friday , Sept . 30 th last , and waa conveyed to a filthy prison in Westminster , not fit for a dog to lie dewn in . I was conveyed to Bow-street , and one thousand sin hundred pounds ball demanded of roe . Of course I had to decline the just offer of the magistrates , and was conveyed to Manchester , and having travelled all night , I irrived in Manchester on the morning of Saturday , was placed in a dirty , filthy cell , swarming with hugs , was brought before the magistrates at the New Bailey , and £ 1 , 200 bail demanded
from me ; I could not find such enormous bail , and hsid to remain in prison ; I was brought from Manchester to Liverpool hand-cufied like a murderer , and when I and others had to get out of the railway carriage on a call of nature , Beawick , the superintendent of the Manchester police , insulted me as well as others most grossly , and when conveyirg us from the station in omnibuses to the prison , he asked us if we required any refreshments ; I said I could like a cup of coffije ; he told me I was very impertinent , and added , he would please himself whether he would let us have any refreshment or not . His conduct w » s so extremely tyrannical and overbearing , fiat Mr . Doyle and myself told him we should be
under the necessity of reporting him to Sir' Janns Graham . I was stint up before Lord Abinger , in company with scorus of others , and arraigned on a charge of conspiracy . We all traversed from the Special Commission until the March assizes . The Judge ordered that I Bhould find bail to the amount of £ 300 , that is , myself in £ 200 , and two sureties in £ 50 each ; this was on Wednesday morning last . On Thursday I applied to the Governor of Kirkdale for the Judge ' s order for my bail , as he , the Judge , had decided that bail might be accepted in the locality in which each person resided . I at once received the necessary information and document from the Governor , and I transmitted the same to my bail in London . I have received the enclosed letter in answer to mine .
I have been stripped of my money , pen-tnife , watch , and every thing usufnl to me ; nay more , even a book in my possession vras taken from me , and subjected to the judgment of the chaplain of this prison before I could be allowed its use ; aye , to that man who , in order to edify his hearers this morning , forgot that he was a minister of the meek and humble Saviour , and dwindled into the furious political partizin ; even the newspapers that my wife endeavoured out of her scanty means to send me are detained . Such , Sir , is the treatment that the democrat is subjected to . I can assure you that this petty annoyance of the Tory Government and its minions , shall not break my spirit , or drive me from my course in waging war against injustice and despotism ; but , Sir , I apply to you as a
public servant , to inform me how it is that such conduct can be permitted on the part of Government officials . I can assure you that such conduct , instead of deterring me from , shall be a greater inducement to me to persevere in my stern opposition to oppression of every kind , and never to eease in my endeavours until even-handed justice shall be meted out ; to all men , acd the name of faction forgot , and the supremacy of the people—the whole people—i * nd neither more nor less ttun the whole peopie—acknowledged . I am , Sir , your political opponent , your equal by nature , and a stern democrat , John Campbell . Right Hon . Sir James Graham , Secretary for the Home Department .

MEETING OF METROPOLITAN ¦ CHARTIST DELEGATES . A crowded mceticR of the Metropolitan Localises Chartist delegates , and Chartist memV-rs , was Ldd on Monday afternoon at the National Charter Association Hall , Old Bailey , for general purposes connected with the advancement of the People's Charter . Mr . Lukfi King was calle'l to tbe chair . Mr E . M : tntz , from th * Silk Weavers , Bathral Green locality , and Air . Toulon , of the Litnbtth lncaiity . iitting at the Britannia CuiFee Hous 3 , '¦ Waterloo-rosd , respectively handed iu their' credentials , and were confirmed by the Delegates' Westing as delegates for tlioae districts . Mr . E-Avracil Wright v ? aa in ( Una form received and confirmed as a delegate forthe Islington locality .
. Mr . 'Simpson rose upon a point of order , aaJ after arms preliminary observations , luov ;;;! to tha effect , " Tuat the rale on cho delegates' bocks be enforced , — - namoiy , ' Tiiiit ait -ieiegatta absenting themselves from their official duty in that room , for three Sundajf : in succes 8 iun , unless by illness , or for sonio Rood and sufficient reason , shall be looked : upon as having folded to perform tlie trust committed t « them , and as no linger delegates ; and that the localities be called upon t » appoint duleaates in their stead . ' " Wr . Wrieht seconded the resolution , which led to a lor . t ; discussion , ' in -wiiich Messrs . Maynard , Cuffay , Wilkins , Jonttf , Pagu , Mathews , ice , took part ; the respective delegates strun ^ ly ce-.-. surir . g , as moat calpable , ' those persoi .-s who , having accepted of ths important t . ffiss of delegates , havi ; failed in the proper discharge of ita ( Jutits . Thosa sent'monts were echoed by the meeting ; r . nd the opinion that men should not accept such an office unless prepared to acquit thembbIvcs of iU respouaibiiity in every sense , -was received with loud cries of " Hear , hear . "
Mr . Touion , of the -I / imbath locality , rase , to state that he had bean instructed by his locality to bring the ca&u ' oC Mr S '/ M-miod , late ChaTtitt lecturer in that district , under consideration of the i ! el"gatcs in meeting ;! 836 ) iibJed . The delegates , as he ( Mr . Toulon ) was instructed , had repudiated Mr . Stallwood as a kcturar on spmo grave charge , and appointed a deputation to communicate their decision to . his locality . Tho locality since then had received a letter from Mr . Staliwood , ¦ which hi ( Mr . Toulon ) , would , with the peuuission of the chairman , read to the meeting . Ic was an txplauation put in by Mr . Stall wood in reply to the charge brought against him ;'" and as such was received and regarded as satisfactory by his locality in mtreting assembled , who , so far as thay were concerned , had every reason to be satisfied with him as a lecturer . He ( Mr . Toulon ) knew nothing himst ' if of tho merits of the case , but would , in conformity to his instructions , lay Mr . StallwooJ ' s letter bifore the meetinc .
Several delegates objected to tbn letter bsiii . ? read ; and on an explanation'from Messrs Dron and Mathewa , the deputation appointed by the dele ^ jtes' meeliDg to communicate the- delegates' charge and decision against Mr . Stallwood , to his locality— :-. amely , that the charge and decision were to he cdnsiiiorcd in Council , and not in public meeting of the li-cality , and the Councils decision to be made known to thi delegates , the question was ordered to be dropped , tb % Cuurcil in question not having complied with tho eDg ; ig ( . 'iuent entered into with the deputat-on . The matter has baen referred back to tho Council of the Lambeth locality . The minutes of tbe former meeting were read by Mr . Wheeler , the delegates' Secretary , and duly confirmed .
A long discussion . arose on the funject of the collection-books proposed by the Ooinmittev of " Tha Victim Fund ' for adoption by tha-locaii' . k's , ths oV-jst ; t being to prevent , by tha U 3 o of such bonk- * . : ; ny imposition being practised on the pubUc by franduluut collectors , not of the Chartist body . Thosu books Mbre signed by tho Committee , and sealed with the delegates' seal ; but the condition of 10 s . stcurity beinj ; entered into for each book , was not approved of by seme of the localities , who preferred retaining their own boofes , and going on in the collection after their ewn way . The proposed security ( which would ba merely a nominal one ) was intended , it may be remarked , as a guarantee in the event of books being ma-. ' . o away with by defaulting collectors , should any prove so unworthy in
such a cause . Tho result of the discussion , in which Messrs . Mathews , Dron , Maynnrd , WHkins , Jlucige , James Cooke , ( dalegnte from Marylebone , in piac-j of Mr . Abel Cooke , resigned , ) Cuffiiy , Simpson , Toulon , Davoc , Lmgwith , Jones , Squires , Bixter , ( collector , } Pickersgill , Bundle , Page , ic & ¦ :., took part , was a resolution moved by , Mr . Lanijwifa , and confirmed by the meeting : — " That "the localities be at liberty to retain their own books , or to take ihose of the Victim Committee at a valuation ; but that for the sake of uniformity ( and as a guarantee Jigainst fianil ) , all books be sent to the Victijn Committee , t ' nat they may be staaiped with tho delegate ' s pffieial seal . " Tho localities , by this arrangement , are at . lib-ily to fix their owe securities with their collectors .
On the motion of Mr . Cuffiy , all monies received at tbe Delegates' Meeting , were ordered to be paid in to the Evening Star , and published in that journal . An announcement was ma ic that Mr . Wheeler had been instructed to prepare parchment credentials , aa documentary authority , ( luly s > iyued and seaUtl , for the Chartist lecturers , many of whom are already ou the wing to lecture in their ; ippo : uted districts . TMe subject of Chartist tracts was also brought under the consideration of the meeting , as a desirable means through which to distsuiinate sound Chartist principles .
A variety of other business was then transacted , after which thanks were voted' to the Chaiimau , and the meeting separated . .

Saturday Night . DEAR SIR , —I am again compelled to forward yon unwelcome news . I got Sawell and Batsman to attend yesterday morning at Bow-streat ; we were kept dallying about there all day , as was also Mr . Shaw , and at length had an interview with Mr . Hall , who informed us he was quite ignorant of the subject , and had not received any notice from the Judges upon the subject of yoar bail . To-day I received your letter containing a copy of your committal . I immediately went to Lambeth , and got Messrs . Ssweli and Bateraan again to accompany me to Bew-street ; but they then informed as that the document yon had forwarded me was no authority for them to act upon ; tbat no order had been received from Liverpool . Mr . Hall was not present , it not being bis day . Barnaby , the chief clerk , also informed us that if an order arrived they could act upon it ; that the prisoner must be present in the same court ss his bail , and be included in the same bail-bond ; and that it would be necessary to send the bail to you .
We know not how to act in this dilemma . Yon must make immediate enquiry on the subject See if the Governor , or some official person , canDot tell you ¦ what course to pursue . Could you not procure four in £ 25 where yon are , or at Manchester ? If not , write to me immediately , and I will endeavour to raise or borrow money to carry the bail to you directly upon the receipt of your letter . Yonrs faithfully , Thomas M . Wheeler .
