      Ay U > feelij » 'g Overseer . —Pbice of a Coffin —Ai ihe Oldham Petty Sessions , on -Thursday , June 30 th , an extremely poor woman , named Betty Fielding , a resident in Back King-street , Oldham , stated that she had applied to ihe overseer of Crompton with a request that he would provide a coffin for the burial of her child . She had prevailed upon him , with much difficulty , to pay the amount of the funeral dues , viz ., 3 ? - 6 a . The magistrates remarked , that as the woman was in very poor circumstances , they thought the humane overseer ought to supply a coffin for the child . On hearing this , the guardian of the poor offered her a shilling , to enable her to purchase the article wanted . The magistrates expressed doubts as to whether almost any kind of a

      coffin was procurable for a shilling . The generous ¦ official then said he conld get a well-made coffin for one shilling and sixpence . The magistrates anxious to test the accuracy of this statement , itquired of Mr . Halfiwell , overseer of Oldham , what would be the price of such a coffin as was wanted , under the present circumstances . He replied that the cost would be six shillings and twopence . The magistrates reproved the overseer of Crompton for his unfeeling and unmanly conduct , after which he promisedtbat a suitable coffin should be provided for the poor woman ' s child . The unfortunate

      woman applied on the following morning to the overseer for the coffin , but in vain ; he refused to attend to her request , contrary to his promise at the sessions . She applied a second time , but without effect , and the child was interred at Oldham Church in a common box , which had been purchased of a grocer for fourpenoe . The ill-used female is ia a most miserable stata . The unfeeling overseer of the poor alluded to is an occasional local preacher among the Primitive Methodists , and resides in Crompton . He certainly is a suitable candidate for an office nnder the New Poor Law . —Manchester and Salford Advertiser .

      A * Mamchesteb , in many of the tradesmen ' s windows placards are placed , announcing "No assessed taxes , nor Income-tax paid here . " Crowds of operatives and their families from Stockport and other towns , flock a distance of seven miles to obtain relief , in the shape of soup and food , at Manchester . The late Scandal Case at Manchester—We h&ve given some particulars of this case in another page . The following has since transpired : —In consequence of tfee severe personal chastisement inflicted upon Mr . Jonathan A— , the delinquent in the recent affair , the life of that gentleman has been despaired of , though he is now pronounced out of danger . The parties acting -with the aggrieved husband were Mr . M— , Mr . W— . and Mr . H— , all persons of high

      respectability in the town , It ib Btated that amongst other injuries , Mr . A— received three wounds in the neci with some sharp iron instrument , and that bis friends threaten criminal proceedings against the parties , as they allege the hnshand was not present when the assault took place . It appears that the servant , who "was in the plot , had made a pretence to retire to bed , and having satisfied herself of the criminality of Mrs . M— , -who retired into the lodger ' s bed-room , and locked the door , went down stain , and admitted the husband ' s , friends . It is certain that he was dreadfully maltreated , and that the exposure to the night air , in a state of nudity , has had a Berious effect upon his constitution . Although the affair has been carefully hushed up in the local papers , it is a matter of general

      notoriety , and , irhat renders it more distressing to the feelings of all parties is , t ^ at they were of high religious standing in the chief Dissenting denomination of the town . A dissolution of partnership ef the firm to which Mr . A . belonged was announced on Monday , the day after the distressing transaction . The Mancftesfer Chronicle . of Saturday , contains the following correc tion of the paragraph relating to this case which appeared in the Times of Friday last : — "It was not our intention t » have given publicity to this painfal affiir- in the columns of the Chronicle . The feelings of the friends of both parties must have been sufficiently harrowed up by tlie circumstance , without the public attention being farther drawn to it ; but , as inaccurate reports , have found" their way into the London papers .

      we deem it proper britfly to state the facts of the case . On Sunday night , as stated in the paragraph we have quoted from the Times ,. the husband of the misfnided la £ y left home under the pretence of going to London , bat , by previous arrangement , returned the same evening ; and , as far as we have been able to learn , what transpired was nearly as follows : —On the night in question , the serraot girl appeared to bare gone to bed aa nsnal , but being concerned in the plot , did not undress herself . Shortly after she retired her mistress went to her room to ask her tome questions as to the state in which the had left the fires . The servant having satisfied her on this point , she departed , and went into her own room . In about a quarter of an hour after wards the servant , feeing on the alert , heard her

      mistress open her roem door sod walk into tne led room of her lodger , locking that door after her . The servant then slipped out of the boose , gave the necessary information , and in a few minutes four strange men ( the husband not being one of the party , but remaining at a neighbour ' s , waiting the issue of the affair ) entered the house , broke open the bed room door , dragged both parties out ef the room , and most cruelly beat Mr . A ., iiflicflng three-wounds in bis neck , apparently with , a sharp instrument , and otherwise abused him so severely that Ms life was despaired of . A report was prevalent in town last night that he bad died during the afternoon bat there is no trath in this rnmonx . We can state on the best authority that he is still alive , and hepes are entertained of his recovery . "

      Extbaobdinaby Trottinq Match . —On Tuesday afternoon a number of the sporting world assembled at the extensive enclosure attached to the Rosemary Branch Tavern , for th © purpose of witnessing an extraordinary match—a / grey pony , twelve hands and a half high , the property of Mr . Burke , a gentleman well known on the turf , being backed for £ 50 to trot fourteen miles within an boar , with a monkey for ita rider . The novelty of the affair attracted , in addition to the betting men and cognoscenti in horseflesh , an immense assemblage of spectators , including several ladies resident in the neighbourhood in their equipages . The monkey of course was the "lion" of the day , and according to the conditions of the match , he was to be

      booted , spnrred , and otherwise attired after the fashion of the jockies at Epsom or Newmarket , and was to ride th « pony in the usual style , with saddle and bridle . The monkey originally selected for the undertaking is the property of a foreigner ; but in consequenoe of his making an attack on the owner , and wounding him with his teeth severely on the arm , it was deemed prudent by Mr . Burke to obtain a substitute , and with that ¦? iew Mr . Batty , the celebrated equestrian manager , was applied to for the loan of one of his trained monkeys , and that gentleman selected " Signor Jocko , " who had already earned considerable reputation by his performances in the circle at the Surrey and other metropolitan and provincial theatres .

      At the appointed time the "Signor" made his appearance , attended by one of the rough-riders belonging to Mr . Batty ' s establishment . He was dressed a la Chifney , or Scott , his jacket and buckskins being built by a first-rate west-end Schneider , and his top-boots would have done honour even to the renowned Hoby . The coIoutb he sported were red and white , and in his right paw he carried a handsome riding whip , and also wore a pair of email spurs buckled round his boots . The pony he was mounted on is a very fast trotter , but notwithstanding his performances , tithe was in

      this instance backed at Oud 5 . After the arrangement of the utual preliminaries the start took place , Mr . Burke , and a gentleman , the friend of the party who had taken the bet , cantering on each side of the pony , with oae or two other 3 galloping in the rear . He performed the distance in fifty-six minutes and fifty-three seconds of the given time , consequently having three minutes and seven seconds to spare , and was not at all distressed . The Signor rode in firstrate style , came in with his whip in bis month , and appeared quite conscious of his own merits as an equestrian . It is said that this feat ifl unparalleled in the annals of the turf .

      Gig Accident . —About ten o'clock yesterday morning , as Doctor Hobson and his servant were coming smartly , but by no means dangerously fast , down Burmandtofts , in the Doctor ' s gig , they had a misfortune , which might have been very serious . The near wheel , from some cause or other , came off as the gig was going . The Doctor tumbled out , and the man , with considerable agility t making a clear vault to the other side , leaped out , but fell on his descent , while the affrighted horse went off at a sapid speed do wn the street . The man sprung instantly upon his feet , and followed the horse , while the Doctor lay for a few seconds seemingly somewhat stunned

      with the fall . A flock of sheep were just passing down the bottom of York Road , and the horse dashed through the midst of them , dragging after him tho now unwieldy vehicle . He then turned up York Road , and raised a terrible commotion among ihe women and children , of whom there were , as usual , a large number idling about . Ho was finally stopped opposite the Biding School , and appeared to have sustained no other injury than a cut in the off far leg . We are happy to observe that the Doctor and his man are both uninjured , and that a child who was said to have been run over was not hurt .

      The Duke op Obx . ea . ns , eldest son to the King of the French , died on Wednesday evening , at five o ' clock . He was thrown from bis cab at twelve , when he pitched upon his head . He was thirty-two years of age .

A deep sensation has been felt in tho bosom of every Chartiat at the hard fate of poor Frost . Sigha . tears , moans , and lamentations , are expressed by every one -who belong to our ranks . Curses , both loud and deep , have been heaped" oa the heads of hia merciless oppressors ; but we see no hope of his release until the Charter be made the law of the land . Then let every Chartist labour with heart and soul , and work as if the cause depended on him and him alone ; let ua never rest satisfied until the Charter be made the law of the land , and the magnanimous Frost , and his compatriots , be restored to their families . :

LouGHBOROOGii—The Cbartista here continue to meet in different parts of the town . three nights in the Vfeek . Last week , on One of the nights , stones and water were thrown , and on the Wednesday night in the Market Place ; but the parties are known , and they had better beware . On Monday last ,, Mr . Clooperj of Leicester , delivered a very spirited and interesting address at the top of the

      New Row , near the Barracks , to an attentive and numerous assembly , the " Sun of Freedom" being sung at the commencenient , and the '/ Chartist National Anthem" at the close Three cheers , with one cheer more , were given for the Charter , O'Connor , and the return of Frost , Williams , and Jones , Ten fresh members were enrolled ; and to shew th ^ terror of the wealthy , the soldiers were , in consequence of the meeting , confined to their barracks for the night .

      RotheRuaji . Glorious Demonstration in favour of ; the People ' s Charter—Mr . T . 3 . Smith visited us on Saturday night last , and der livered a lecture in the Association Room , to a not numerous , but most attentive audience . He stated at the conclusion , that if agreeable he would deliver another lecture on Tuesday evening , in th ' e open air . Preparations were instantly nrade ^ placards were issued , and a noble spirit manifested Whioh threw the town , and especially the truckling teetotalers , into consternation . The latter stated that they intended to hold a meeting pb the came evening , and that the Chartists had contrived theirs in a spirit of opposition ; this statement was false , as no Chartist knew of the temperance gathering

      until Tuesday , and the placards calling the meeting were issued on Monday . At the appointed hour , Mr . Smith , accompanied by his friends , repaired to the Market-place , aud after Mr . Stephen Peacock had , as chairman , opened the . business of the evening in a few well-timed remarks , Mr . Smith commenced his address , which lasted nearly two hours , and carried conviction to many an honest heart . Mr . Smith took a review , of the present distress of the country , traced in a clear and lucid manner , our history from the dayB Of Alfred , and explained the six points of the Charter with the most powerful effect . The meeting could not consist of less than 2 O 0 O , including almost all tbe respectables of Rotherham , who , with one or two exceptions , listened with the greatest attention . Some of the teetotallers endeavoured to interrupt the meeting by slight groans , and some one in the crowd threw a small stone at the speaker : but

      the meeting was most peaceaWo , and the conduct of the gentlemen was sue a as might be imitated with advantage in other places . Some few of the tools of faction endeavoured to exercise their vocation in a small way , one wishing for Mr . Smith ' s imprispnment ; another , exclaiming , "blast him , I could mill him ; - ' and a third , ( a policeman ) , wispering that the fello w was well paid ; and when asked for proof , replying , " why * because I think he ia , " At the close of the lecturo , Mr . Smith made some statements which ha \ e thrown confusion into the temperance ranks . He stated that on the . occasion-of his last visit to Rothorham , he wag invited to lecture to the Teetotal Society , and promised to do eo on his next visit . He received for answer ^ that his offer was friendly accepted ; accordingly he wrote to ' ¦ the Secretary , stating when he should be in Rotherham , and his readiness to fulfil his promise , to which he received the following reply : —

      "College Road , Rotherham , July 2 , 1842 . "Sm , —In reply to your note received last night , I have to inform you that your kind offer to give the Rotherham Teetotal Society a lecture was discussed by the members of the committee , the last time you was at Rotherham , and that the decision of the committee then was , that such effjr be respectfully declined , in accordance with the rules of the association , which expressly provide , that no party politics or sectarian opinions be allowed . " I readily believe , for one , that your statement of riot introducing such matter is perfectly : true- but , a « we are circumstanced at Rotherham , it is our only saffr plan to steer quite clear of all danger in this respect : and , as a lover of true temperance , which I have every reason to believe you to he , you will , I hope , see our hitherto fctrictly adbered-by rule could not aafely , on this occasion , be dispensed with . "I . rernain , * 'Yours most respectfully ,

      M T * B . Smith , Leeds . " The reading of this production waa productive of much merriment . Mr . S . showed that either a barefaced lie had been written by —— or that a lie had been told by the deputation which waited upon him on hia last visit to Rotherhanl , and said he would leave the Committee and their Secretary to settle this between them , He then pointed out the consequence of so explaining the rule of the Temperance Society as to exclude perBons holding particular political opinions or religious ones from its platforms . He showed that if this interpretation was correct

      it must exclude Whigs and Tories as iveli as Cbar ^ tists , and men of all religions , as every one of them held party and seotarian opinions , and asked the teetotallers present ; what they thought of a society whioh proclaimed by inference that nobody but a man without principles or opinions of his own waa fit to appear as its advocate 1 Mr . S . conoluded by recommending all to become total abstainers , but not to sign the pledge until a new society be organised . Thia demonstration will be of immense importance to the cause here , and we look forward to another visit with much pleasing anticipation as to the result . .. > : ;¦ . ¦/ .. ¦> : ¦ '" :. ; ¦ : ¦ ¦' " : ¦ ¦ . ¦ -: \ \; : ' ¦ - ¦ : ¦ : ¦¦/'

Manchester Corn Market , Saturday , July 16 . —We beg to acknowledge the receipt of communications from several of our correspondents in the agricultural districts , containing information relative to the crops and prospects of harvest , It appears that Wheat , generally , looks well , and promises a full average in quality and quantity , and an expectation prevails that , in favourable quarters ,

      reaping will commence during the present month . The reports from the English counties respecting Oata are not of so favourable a eharactex ; Whilst , from Ireland , the crops of that article are described having a very luxuriant appearance . During the week , as also at our market this morning , the trade has been in a languid state , and we reduce our quotations of Wheat 2-j per 701 bs . On middling runs of Flour a decline of Is per sack must likewise be noted ; but the ecaroity of choice fresh whites has enabled , the factors to realize late rates for such descriptions . The transactions in Oats and Oatmeal was of a very limited nature , and the currency of this day se ' nnight was not supported : quotations are only nominal . ¦

      Lowpow Corn Exchange , Monday , July 18 . —< There was a moderate good supply of Wheat from Esaex this morning , but a limited quantity from Kent and Suffolk , with a moderately fair fresh arrival of Oats from our own coast , a few vessels from Scotland and Ireland with this article , whilst the imports of Foreign Wheat and Oats hava baen conaiderable . The weatner has been very fine since this day week . The town millers were reluetant buyers of Wheat this morning , from the continuance of such fine weather for the crops ; and supplies holding out beyond their expectations , the trade was very dull , the finest English Wheat must be quoted full 2 s . per qr . lower ' than last Monday , and other MH'ts at a greater deoiine ; but there was no material variation in the value of free Foreign , although only a retail demand took place , and little was passing in bonded . Good fresh Flour was much the same as last week . Grindina Barley met a

      steady demand at quite as much money . " c Some new white was at market this morning of good dry , quality from Buckinghamshire ; being the fisst , they brought an high price . Malt was quite as dear and good season-made qualities were in fair request There was a Blow sale for Oats , and all sorts were procurable on rather easier terms . Fine corn about 6 d-., pcfr qr ., and light Irish declined IS . per qr . The Foreign arrivals are offered , either duty paid or in . bond , to accommodate any sort of bujers , either for consumption or on speculation . There were about twenty lasts of new Rapeseed from Essex and Kent of good quality generally , and this article met a limited sale to seedsmen and to small dealers , in the most trifling parcels at varions prices , but too high for crushers or for a safe investment . There was a fair , supply of Caraway Seed , which commanded as much money . New B , ye was offering , and held too high for sales to be effected .

The bullock season from the north , a ? will be perceiyed . bythe above returns , having now fairly commenced , much attention is directed as to the quality of the supplies from that quarter . As yet they have proved in fair condition , but the quantity of internal

      fat carried by . them is less than has been known for some time past 5 however , in a few weeks more we shall be enabled more accurately to form an idea of the actual value of the stock received from Lincolnshire , &c . The number of beasts being on the increase , and more than adequate to meet the wants of the buyerSj'the beef trade was excessively dull , and in order to effect sales , a decline of from 2 d . to 4 d . per 81 bi was submitted to 1 by the 8 alesmen .
