A >* INVOCATION TO THE SPIRIT OF HOLBBRRY . Hsi ] . ' mighty spirit of tie dead . ' 0 ! fill each tjrant heart ¦ with dread , And freedom ' s sons inspire ; That they may gain the glorious cause For -which thou feU ' st to class-made lavs , A sacrifice so dire . Tbo' burst thy chains , theu ' fit not forgot , The proad man ' s worn—the poor man ' -s lot . Freedom thine eye onee fired ! Injustice quail'd before thy gszs ; AEd monster tyrant * stood amazsd ; Whilst liberty admired la mercy sure the summons came Prom high , to quench that noble flame , "Rten justice stood apart ; Thy godlike soul too strait confla'd , Poi such a bold capacious mind , ?\ ow animates each heart .
And may it still pursue its flight , Dispel the mists and cloom of night , And shine like mid-cUys gun , Till free-born Britons own thy worth , And shout , while despots crouch to earth ; Oar nation ' s freedom won . Edwis Gill . ShtSeld .

THE LADIES' HAND BOOK OF KNITTING , > "ETTI . \ G , _ AND CROTCHET , containing pla ; u directions by which to become proficient in these branches of tuefal and ornamental emp ' oyment . By the author of ' The Ladies ' Ha > t > Bock cf Faxct Iseedlewobk asd EkSboidzki . vg . " London : H . tr . Clarke and Co ., 66 , Uld Bailey , 1842 . Tiiis little rcacal is a -worthy successor to its companion , the Ladies' Hand Book of Fancy Needlework , and promises to bo of rust utility . The former work fans already reached its second thousand , though i : has not been much more than one month before the public , and we donbt not bet that the Hand Book of Knitting . & . (? ., will 2 nd an equally favourable reception . The plan is one well
calculated to effect the desired object , and the directions for the various kinds of work , plain , concise , and forcible . The introduction and the Qr < i chapter are also highly interesting for the amount of " general information they contain , and will be read- with interest , not only by those ' for whose use the book is specially intended , but by others in more advanced stages of life . Oae feature in these little works is peculiar ; the author considers that all accomplishments should be directed to the attainment of some moral end , and in accordance with this view-of the subject he his introduced here and there moral reflections of an highly interesting character . The following extract will be read with interest ; by every parent who is at all anxious for the improvement of onr race , and its advancement to a state of moral excellence .
" But there u yet a higher kind of use to which we would apply them . We would have the young lady who is becoming expert and clever at her needle , to rtfleet , as the fceantiful fabric rrows beneath her forming hand , that her work , and ths pDwer and skill to plan and txecuve it , is an emanation of the immortal mind ; of that mind , whose creative powers are a faint , bnt legible transcript of the omnipotent wisdom- of . the Deity . This thought gives a permanency to what "would , in any other light , be only transitory as the summer cloud . It is omnipotent wisdom and power , which has
contrived and expected all the feeantifal wonders of creation ; and that wisdom and power were called into activity by omnipoten t love . We wish to . impress this scblime truth upon the raind of our young readers , because we wish them to place their Heavenly Father before them , as their pattern and example , in all that they take in hand ; and , to remember , that as He formed the universe by wisdom , from love , so all their actions and elegant contrivances should be the result of jadgmeat , guided by affection , that they may thus become like their Father who is in Heaven .
" Indeed , it is only , when accomplishments are rendered suiservient te the development of moral eoodtess , that they becorne pursuits at all worthy of an accountable being . We were not sent into this world to flatter through life like the gaudy bntteifly , only to b = seen and adimred . We "were designed to be £ r » fcl to ocr fellow . beings , and to make all our powers £ ad capabilities in seme way or other conducive to the happiness and welfare of our co-journejers on the path of time . To this end we yrish enr f-iir conn try womea to devote their best attention , and in its attainment to exert every energy which they possess . We wish them ta make all the knowledge which they may acquire subserve some noble purpose , ¦ which will outlive the present hour , and to do this the well-spring of the purest affections must be opened in the sonl ; and
ie elegant productions of taste and genius become vitalised and animated by the spirit of love . Thus , and thus only , can the occupations cf a leisure hour , be converted into efficient ministers of good , and such they will assuredly be found , if practised from right nj&uves , and placed in cine suborcinaticn to the right exercise of more important duties . Lttthen the young vo : arvs of the needle , of drawing , cr of rncjie , " ever bear in mind , that th 2 tixe employed in those pursuits will b ? riccc-untedlostorimprovvdbytheicpartiaijadge cisll . jur : in proportion as they have been made to save th ; : purposes of ssldsh gratiScitioa , or to minister to the development of an elevated moral character , pcercui and warm affections , and the cultivation of those virtues , which as ess-mrials of the Christian char- ictcr , shall outlive the ravages of time , and qualify the soul fcr all the beatitudes of a coming eternity . "
The works are got up in an elegant style , and will ' crm appropriate presents as tokens of sffection and e ? teem . We wish them ail the success which their intrinsic value merits .

HUDDERSFIEIJ ) . —Cricket . —On Monday last a match at Cricket came off on the Dalton Ground , near Huddersfield , between the Heckmondwike Commercial and the Huddersfield Britannia Clubs , for ten shillings a man . The following is a correct statement of the game . Heckmondwike went in first , and scored twenty-five . Huddersfie'd next took the bat and scored fifty-one , when Heckmondwike again took the bat and scored fortyseven , leaving the Britannia twenty-one lo get to win , which they did with nine wickets to fall . The day was cloudy yet favourable for the game . Only one event happened which tended to mar the pleasures of the day , and it was one of so aggravated a nature that to pass it over unnoticed would add to the crime . The front room of the White Hart
( belonging to Mr . G . Berry ) was occupied by the members of both clubs , to which it was understood no other persons could have access . It further appears that many members of the Britannia had provided themselves with food for the day , and after the first innings Ihey repaired to the room to partake of the same , bnt on examining their pockets they found all gone . Who the hungry visitors were could not be ascertained ; yet if none but players had access to the room , the conclusion is inevitable ; if , on the contrary , strangers were allowed , in the absence of any member or members , which was quite possible , then the proprietor of the honse was highly culpable for Buch gross neglect . However , as ** experience makes fools wise" more precautionary measures will be taken in future .- * -From a Correspon den r .

BTTiTiTWGHAfll , rear Stockton-upon-Tees . — The inhabitants of this pleasant little village were thrown into a state of great confusion oa Sunday evening last , by the Rev . Gibson , vicar of the parish , being suspended from an ash-trea in his own garden . Toe Rev Gentleman read the service , and preached a sermon , in the morning , but seemed at a Io 3 s how to proceed ; in short , it was the leading topic of conversation in the parish in the afternoon . He said to some of the inmate 3 of his house , " I have taken some pills , therefore , must go out . "' This
was about ten o ' cloek in the evening ; it , however , appeared clear enough afterwards that it was merely a pretence ; he had not taken any pilis . His brothers , ia conjunction with his mother and sister , thought he was longer than he need be in coming in , they , therefore , went into the garden , and to their surprise and sorrow found him as above stated , quite desd . The jory sat on Monday , and returned a verdict of Insanity . The doctors say that the insanity ha 3 been prodnced by too deep and laborious study , he being a man of but "weak intelleot . — Correspondent .

Hail Storm . —A dreadful hail storm , accompanied by thunder and lightning , visited the neighbourhood of Egglestone , near Middleton-in-Teesdale , on Wednesday last .

Eight members of the family which inhabited it it were ia the room at the time , all of whom escaped unhurt , except a little boy , who was knocked down and suffered a slight bruise on the face .

Dover . —On Saturday last , a large anchor , weighing about nineteen or twenty cwt ., and supposed to be from a Dutch foundry , was brought into Dover harbour . It was found four days before , about fifty miles from this place , in the German Ocean , opposita the North Foreland , but at some distance out at sea , by some fishermen , in whose nets it became entangled . Having obtained assistance from some other boats , they lashed a cable to it , and it was finally brought on shore . From its appearance at present , it is thought to have been sunk for a period little short of twenty years . It is , however , still in good preservation , the arms , which are of wood , being apparently as sound as when fir ^ t cut . —Kentish Observer .
Singular Occurrence . —A few days ago , as a person of the name of Charlesworth , of Darley Dale , was crossing the moors on his way to Chesterfield , he stopped to rest himself on a heap of stones by the road side , during which time he chanced to cast his eyes on a viper or adder , within a few yards of his resting place , coiled up in folds upon the road . There being something , he imagined , rather singular in the manner of the reptile , he "watched its movements for a few minutes . The traveller ' s curiosity had nearly proved of serious consequence , for the poisonous vermin , having partially raised itself , darted at him with all its force , though it luckily passed over his shoulder , with only slightly grazing his hat , and afterwards escaped into an adjoining plantation . The people of that district of the moors denominate these attacks made by the adders as " adder bolts . "—Doncaster Gazette .
Waterspouts . —Sunderland , Sept . 22 . —Yesterday several waterspouts were seen off this coast about ten or twelve miles from the land . They assumed the appearance of inverted cones , and ultimately burs : ; an immense body of water fell from each ; the lower parts totally disappeared , and the summits amalgamated into a dense body resembling a thick cloud . Thcnder storm . —This city was visited yesterday by a violent thunder-storm , which continued , with some intermission , for about two hours , beginning about half-past twelve o ' clock , and being accompanied throughout with a tremendous fail of rain
and hailstones . Several of the flashes were extremely vivid , and the thunder burst immediately over the city , and at no great distance from the surface . The electric flaid struck a chimney on Summer-hill , and slightly shattered its wall , but we have not heard of any serious injury inflicted by it . The rain fell with grea . t force , and some of the hailstones were of enormous siz ? . We trust that the Sdo weather which we have just passed was takea due advantage of for the bu = iness of the harvest , as the weather would now appear to be effectually broken , and much damage must have been inflicted by the hail and rain of yesterday on any ripe and heavy corn exposed to its fury . —Dublin Freeman ' s Journal of Thursday .
American Packets . —Three American packets , the Cambridge , the Siddons , and the Monongahela , arrived at Liverpool ou Thursday . By all these vessels the number of emigrants returning to this country is very great . The Cambridge brought 200 steerage passengers ; the Siddons had 240 in the steerage and 34 in the cabin ; and the Monongahela had 100 in the steerage . The return of these persons , many of them in a state of great destitution , is sufficiently indicative of the prosperity of the United States at the present moment , or rather the absence of it . The freights , from the same cause , are small in amount and low in price , the Cambridge having only brought £ 400 on freight , the Siddons £ 420 , and the Monongahela a stili more trifling amount .
Death from Hydrophobia . —Yesterday ( Friday ) afternoon , an inquest was held at the New Baiiey prison , before Mr . Rutter , thecounty coroner , touching the death of William Tankard , of Salford . From the evidence adduced , it appeared that the deceased was imprisoned for one month for the non-payment of the penalty and costs for aa assault , of which he had been convicted before two magistrates at Heap . On Monday last , whilst washing his hands he was suddenly taken with a shaking and shivering . He was taken into the hospital , and attended by Mr . Barton Stott , surgeon of the prison , whom he informed that he had been bitten in the hand by a dog about six weeks ago . Mr . Stott ordered a basin of water to be brought , and he was convinced from the shock which the deceased experienced by
the sight of it , that he was affected with hydro phobia . Mr . Stott procured the assistance of Mr . Jordan , and they administered some emetics to the patient , cupped and blistered him , and used every means in their power to afford him some relief . They visited him frequently , and two of Mr . Stott ' s pupils remained up with him all Wednesday night . During that night the patient was perfectly tranquil , and the paroxysms were slight , but he did not sleep at all . The medicines operated as tho physicians wished j and the patient continued in a composed state till about half-past three on Thursday afternoon , when he was sdzed with violent paroxysms . At four o ' clock he was visited by Dr . Hulme and Mr . Thorpe , Mr . Jordan having previously obtained permission of the magistrtes to call them in . Mr . Stott and Mr . Jordan administered more medicine to the
patient after which the attacks became less violent At a quarter-past twelve o'clock on Thursday night another severe fit came on , and he expired immedidiately afterwards . During Wednesday he took bread soaked in hot water , but could not take it in cold . He also drank ( though with great difficulty ) coffee from a teapnt . During some of his severe paroxysms it required six or eight men to hold him . He stated , before his death , that the dog that bit him had a chain and paTt of a rope about his neck . He appeared to have broken loose from his owner , and when the deceased attempted to lay bold of him . he bit him in the band , a little above the second joint of the thumb . The dog barked afterwards at some children in running away from the deceased . Verdict , " Death from hydrophobia , produced by the bite of a dog . "—Manchester Guardian .
Serious Riot in Aibdrie . —On Thursday evening , a riot tcok place in Airdrie , which for a time threatened the most serious consequences . The military , it appears , were withdrawn from the town that forenoon , and during the day more bustle and excitement were observable in the streets than usual . No disturbance , however , was for a time apprehended , as the colliers in the neighbourhood had partly resumed work , and , as no disposition to outbreak had been manifested by the great body of them , still on strike , since shortly after the commencement of the dispute . Still no breach of the peace had taken place , and all might have passed over quietly enough , bat on the arrival of five prisoners in the afternoon , on their way to Hamilton gaol , in custody of a party of Sheriff's officers , who
had been apprehended at Ballochney for a breach of engagement with their employers , or accused of intimidation—the story is told both ways—the excitement increased , and the shopkeepers , apprehensive of a riot , shut their shops . - At this time a meeting of the idle colliers was being held at the Potteries , in the vicinity of Coatbridge ; rmmbers of them were likewise congregated in various parts of the town of Airdrie ; and it was , from circumstances which had been allowed to transpire , understood that the rescue of the prisoners had been resolved upon . Upon the prisoners being brought to the town , application was made to have them lodged in one of the inns until they could be examined by the authorities , but this , it is said , the innkeeper refused , from fear of the mob
destroying his premises . About this time a band of about 400 strange colliers , apparently from the east appeared in the streets , and the officers in charge of the prisoners immediately took them to a public-house adjoining the inn . After some consultation amongst the mob the result was , that a rescue was determined on , and accordingly the house where the prisoners were confined was attacked , and , as great resistance was offered , it was some time before an entrance was effected and the pr isoners hbeiatea . The door of the house was torn down , and all the glajs in the windows broken . The promises were completely gutted , and the liquor , furniture , glass , &c , carried off or destroyed . Before this was accomplished the magistrates met opposite theplsce where the crowd—ultimately amounting to upwards
of 1 , 500—had collected , and read the Riot Act ; but as they bad no military force at their command , they had just to look passively on during the time the disturbance was going forward , without being able to take a single effective step towards putting a stop to the lawless proceedings . Several shots , we are informed , were fired by persons in the crowd during the progress of the riot ; and before the house was gutted , the Sheriff ' s officers repeatedly fired blank out of the windows to intimidate the riotous assemblage . To this , however , they paid no attention , but proceeded determinedly to effect their object . While thiB was going forward , the magis-Police
trates sent expresses for aid to the Glasgow - office and to Sheriff Alison ; but before the Shenn , accompanied by Captain Miller , arrived , the rioters had dispersed and the town was quiet . The military did not arrive till yesterday morning . We are informed that the secretary of vhe Colliers' Association was apprehended in his own house late on Thursday Bight , and committed to g * ol , but we have not heard upon what charge . The town was quiet yesterday . Two of the policemen who assisted the officers in repelling the attacks of the mob were slightly wounded . The affair , we understand , is undergoing a most rigid investigation . —Glasgow Courier .

Paris . —It is said that there has not been for many years past so few English residents in Paris as during the present summer . The hotel keepers complain bitterl ) of the absence of their best customers , and many of the shopkeepers hare no cause for rejoicing . The improved facilities for travelling on the Continent cause tourists to explore Germany and the Rhine iu preference to France , and the ' war fever' caused by M . Thiers has not yet sab-Sided sufficiently to induce the English to make Paris their abode as of old . The absence of our countryinen is , however , in some degree supplied by the Russians , of whom there are great numbers in the French oapital . They are not , however , very popular with the Parisians , their habits and customs being so widely different to those of our gay neighbours . —London paper .

United States . —The New York packet-ship Cambridge has arrived and brought intelligence to the 1 st , one day later than that received last week . The papers contain a message from the President to the House of Representatives , which constitutes a protest against the report of the Committee of thirteen on the late veto . Mr . Tyler say 3 that ho holds the Executive Government intrust for the people : he shows that , however unprecedented the mode in which h 8 attained the chief office , it was in a perfectly regular course , and therefore he had not " usurped" any power ; and he maintains , that however unusual , bis exercise of'he veto , was also performed in a regular manner , and in strict accordance with his sense of responsibility for the duties intrusted to him . Ho says , that had he been impeaohed before the Senate , ho would have met the accusation with firmness ; buthe protestsagaiwst the unfairness and " unconstitutionally" of Mr . Adams's report , adopted by the House . Congress was to re-assemble in three months .
A Female Sailor in Cardiff . —On Thursday week , just as tho Lady Charlotte was about to sail from Cardiff , attention was drawn to a person iu a f-ailor'a dress , who was exhibiting money rather carelessly , and expressing great anxiety for the sailing of the packet . Perkins , a constable , accosted him , and on refusing to uive any account of how he got the money , or where he came from , took him to the Station-house . Mr . Superintendent Stockdale , after asking a few questions , suspeetert the apparent sailor boy was a girl , and oharged her with being bo , which she resolutely denied . A woman was made to search her , and the young sailor turned out to be a pretty looking Welsh girl . Finding disguise to be useless , she gave an acoount of herself . H er assumed name as the sailor was Edward Williams , but her real one is Mary Davis ^ She is twenty years of ago . She lived with her father , who is a decayed farmer ,
about nine miles from Merthyr , and between that place and Neath . Having a brother avray from home , she determined to go in search of hiro . She had received a , letter lately from him enclosing £ 5 , and it contained a request that she should come to him ; this letter she had lost , and b- > entirely had she forgotten her brother ' s address , tha ^ she did not know whether the letter came from America , Australia , or Ireland . Her purpose in the present instance was to go to Bristol , and from thence to America . She was taken every care of at the Station-house , and visited by the worihy mayor and the Rev . T . Stacey , who , after hearing her statements , were convinced she was of weak mind . She was directed to be sent to the Union House , until her friends could be communicated with , and her money was left in Mr . Stockdale ' e hands . She cannot speak a word of English . —Silurian .
A Cargo of Wild Beasts—Early on Monday morning the powerful steamer Monarch arrived at her moorings off the Custom House , London , her decks being almost covered with cages containing an extensive collection of wild animals , a trans-shipment from Hull . Among them were a remarkably fine young lion from Zanzibar , a pair of striped hyapas from India , a very beautiful pair of tho Sa-sin antelopes from the borders of Persia , tho horns of the male nearly two feet long , forming , a perfect spiral , a most interesting specimen of the gnu antelope , from the Cape of Good Hope ,
called by the Dutch boors of South Africa the Baas or Mas ! er , from his great strength ; and one of the most formidable of the monkey tribe ever brought to this country . The la « t animal stands nearly four feet hif > h , and appeared to be a distant relative of " Happy Jerry , " of departed memory . He inhabits the mountains of Arabia , and is the Derrias or Wood Baboon , known by the Arabs by the name of " Rebah , " or Child of the Sun . The whole of the cargo was landed at daylight , and forwarded in vans to their destined resting-place , after all their wanderings , at the Surrey Zjological Gardens .
Tinmeh ' s Strike . —A general strike for new prices , has taken place among tho tin-plate workers in this town . We have not yet beon able to make ourselves so fully sensible of the merits of the contending parties as we could have wished . It appears , however , that , in 1825 , there was a general strike , in consequence of which a list was drawn up and agreed to by tho men and masters . Since that period many new articles , not included in the list , have been made , and , it is said , a considerable depression in the trade has existed . We are informed that , there being no list price for these articles , some masters have paid for their manufacture- at a higher rato than others , and all the workmen now claim ths same price . Many of the masters do not consider themselves justified in signing the new list , and consequently , their men remain out . A similar strike exists to a considerable extent in Birmingham . — Staffordshire Examiner .
Accident by Lightning . —During the severe thunder-storm oa Thursday afternoon a serious accident occurred at the Great Weston Cotton Works , St . Philip's , Bristol . At about twenty minutes before five o ' clock the electric fluid struck the meter-house , and completely destroyed the large gas meter , the erection of which had just been completed by the company at a cost of £ 130 . The iron face of the . meter was split in pieces , and the gas which was in the cylinder ( fortunately it was turned off at the main ) being ignited by the electric fluid exploded , and largo pieces of iron , one of them weighing above 1001 b ., were thrown with such violence agains ! a wall twenty-five feet distant as to
produce considerable indentations in portions of the masonry . The meter house ia erected in front of the weaving-room , in which between 500 and 600 girls were at work at the time . The main gas-pipe , which is attached to the meter , passes through the wall , and descends beneath the floor of this room , and as a largo portion of it was blown off it seems almost a miracle that no lives were lost . As might be expected , the utmost consternation was produced ; several of the girls fell fainting on the floor , others rushed to the door to escape from the factory , aud all was confusion and alarm . Wo are happy to etato , however , that no one was hurt .
Unrolling of an Egyptian Mummy . —Oa Thursday a female mummy , presented to the Natural History Society of Shrewsbury by the late Dr . Butler , was unrolled in the presence of about two hundred highly respectable spectators , a great part of whom ware ladies , it having been stated that there would be nothing whatever indelicate in tho interesting operation . Mr . Birch , from the British Museum , superintended the iinrollmg of the mummy , previous to which he described tho process of embalming among the Egyptians . The outer coffin in which the prestnt remains were deposited announced that it contained the body of " Tennor-en-Rhons , Priestees of Amon , " who wa 3 " dedicated to Osiris , Presiding in the West , Lord of Abydos , that he would give Offerings for the sake of the deceased . "
The lecturer began at the feet of the corpse to untie the liuen bandages which enveloped it . These conbis : ed of several hundred pieces , of the hue of washleather , but capitally woven cloth , and in some parts not much discoloured , and pretty strong . On one of the pieces was an inscription stating ita age to be twenty-one years . On unlappiag the bandages round the neck , the head fell off , and was found quite perfect , severe ! of the teeth in front being still fixed in their sockets , one of them loose . The cartil ! a * es of the ears were perfect , the dried flesh having the semblance of dark gingerbread . Tbe body wak disclosed with a vast deal more difficulty than
the head , the embalmere having dipped it into the bitumen bo long and so frequently as to destroy the flesh and render the skin and its envelope one mass . Gradually , however , the toes appeared , all perfect , except the nails , the feet being small and very attenuated . Tho muscles and the skin of the leg ? , and the cap of the knee next became visible , and the hands , crossed on tbe abdomen , were traced after great labour . The hip bones , > he shoulders , and the ribs , were exposed one after another , till at last the fully developed frame of a human being , 3 , 000 ytar 3 old , lay exposed to the gaze of the company . Upwards of three houxa were occupied ia the process .

Death of the Marquis of Welleslev .- —This event took place at his Lordship ' s residence , Kingston-house , Brompton , between three and four o ' olock on Mouday morning . Early Rising . —la the will of the late Mr . Jas . Bryan ,. of the borough of Leicester , is the following singular olause : — " As my nephews are fond of indulging themselves in bed in a morning , aud as I wish them to prove to the satisfaction of my executors that they have got out of bed in the morning , and either employed themselves in business or taken exercise in the open air , from five till eight o ' olock
every morciog , from the 5 th of April to the 10 th of October , being three hours each day ; and from seven till nine o ' olock in the morning from the 10 th of October to the 5 th of April , being two hours every morning ; this is to be done for some years ; during the firat seven years to the satisfaction of my executors , who may excuse them iu case of illness , but the task must be made up when they are well : and if they will not do this , they shall not receive any share of my property . Temperance makes tho faculties clear , and exerciso makes them vigorous . It is temperance and exercise united that can alone insure the fittest state for mental or bodily exertion . "
Tralee . —A firo broke out in Mr . Walpole ' s hotel on Wednesday night week , bv which a gentleman stopping at the hotel has suffered severe personal injury , Mr . Richard Walter Agar , solicitor , of KiUarney , who arrived that evening . The family of the house had all retired to rest , and in the middle of the night , between one and two o ' clock , Mr . Walpole was roused from sleep by loud screams . He at once jumped out of bed , and ran in the direction of the screams , which he found to proceed from the room occupied by Mr . Agar . The door being locked on the inside , Mr . Wai polo burst it in , and by the force of the concussion knocked down Mr . A gar , who , it would appear , was unable , through fright , to unlock the door . Mr . Walpole found the bed , the curtains , the chairs , and all the furniture in the room enveloped in flames . Mr . Agar has suffered severe injury by the fire , bis chest , face , arms , aud hands being extensively , burned , but there is no apprehension of fatal consequences ensuing .
The Blessins 3 of Peel ' s Income Tax . —According to the Act of Parliament , strict secrecy is enjoined on the commissioners and subordinates appointed under this inquisitorial law . A striking illustration is afforded by the knowledge that the * ' West end" collectors are to be heard freely canvassing the returns of the " city" merchants , instancing that a weil-known firm have returned their profits as £ Gf ) , 000 a year ; two others at £ 40 , 000 ; and several more at £ 30 , 000 ; also , that a highly influential body have stated their average
profits to bo upwards of half a million annually !—So much for secreoy . Another practical illustration is given , by the fact that an old and respected inhabitant of Pimlico has very recently broken up his establishment , dismissed his servants , and sold off his household furniture , alleging , aa the sole reason , the cruel operation of Peel ' s odious income tax . His income ranges to nearly £ 200 per annum ; and he is now compelled to retire to furnished lodgings , with his family , and to debar himself of many comforts which he had previously enjoyed .
The Birmingham Railway Church . —A church , the first of th ? kind in connexion with railways , ia to be erectod on a . site of ground near the London and Birmingham Railway , for tho religious instruction of the servants connected with the company and the neighbouring population round their central station at Wolverton . The proposition was first made at a general meeting of the shareholders in 1840 , when it was resolved to establish a Church of England chapel at Wolverton , so soon as the sum of £ 4 000 . required to erect it , should be raised . Within £ 300 of that amount has already been subscribed , includiug £ 1000 from the Railway
Company , with an annual endowment for the minister ; £ 2 u 00 from the Radcliffo trustees , and sundry other sums . A temporary reading-room , capable of holding 200 persons , licensed by the Bishop of London , haB been opened until such time as the church shall be erected , which it is expected will take p lace early in the spring . It ia to be built in a plain , substantial stjle , and to contain 600 sittings . There is to be a burial ground , with a house for the residence of the Rov . George Wright , the minister , who has been appointed to-officiate as Chaplain . Mr . Glyn , tho chairman of the railway , ha-3 presented the trustees with a handsome communion service of plate .
Dreadf dl Death . —Wo regret to learn that au aggravated and fatal case of assault , if not a case of murder , took place in Calton of Glasgow on Wednesday last . It appears that on the day in question two men , named Robert Campbell and William Smith in the employment of Mr . Neil , nailor , in Main-street , Calton , had had some difference or quarrel , when Campbell seized the red-hot rod of iron with which ho was working , and by thrusting it against the abdomen of Smith inflicted several severe , wounds or burns . In consequence of this assault the unfortunate man died on Thursday afternoon . Campbell has been apprehended . —Caledonian Mercury .
Astronomical Clock . —After four years labour tlie repairs of the astronomical clock at Strasburgh are c mplcted , and it will be set in motion ou the meeting of the Scientific Congress on the 28 th . In this curious piece of mechanism the revolutions of the sun , the _ moon , and the planets are marked down with scientific exactness . Seven figures represent the seven days in the week , each appearing on its turn on the day allotted to it . The four ages corns forward to strike the quarters , and the skeleton Death strikes the hours . At noon the twelve Apoatles advarice in succession to bend down before the figure of our Saviour , who gives them the benediction . At the game moment a cock claps its wings and crows three times . It is said to be one of the most curious pieces of clock-work in Europe .
Destructive Flood at Aberysiwith . —A few days ago this towu was visited by a terific flood . At eleven o ' clock in the forenoon , a noise was heard resembling that of distant thunder , and the inhabitants were soon apprized of the cause by a tremendous body of water rolling-several , feet above the wateis of the river Rhydol , carrying with it caits , wheelbarrows , forks , rakes , and various implements of husbandry . On its reaching the harbour , the force was so powerful as to raise the shipping which were lving a-ground , and-dash them on each other with such fury as to smash the masts , yards , and bowsprits of several of them to splinters ; others sunk to their anchors , and were nearly covered ; several boats were instantly dashed to tho bottom and hurled to the ocean . ' The waters continued to increase for
upwards of two hours , stripping the fields adjoining the bed of the river , of hay , wheat , oats , and barley ; and although the waters were increasing and coming down , dashing and foaming headlong , yet the children in Trefechan were to be seen up to their middles in the midst of the stream , endeavouring to catch the spoil borne on the bosom of the apparently infuriated element . The most singular circumstance connected with this phenomenon was , tha ; although the wind was blowing west , with a tremendous heavy sea , yet the waters of the river forced the ocean back to the apparent distance of a mile , filling the bay extending from Graiglss point to the pier with freshwater , aud for upwards of eight hours no amalgamation or the freph and briny elements took place , the bay remaining as free from salt . as if it had been a mountain lake . —Hereford paper .
Belper . —Death from Fighting —We have this week to record the awi'ul death of another victim sacrificed at the shrine of drunkenness and pugilism , who has been suddenly sent before his God , leading to penury an industrious wife and several children . The persons examined at the inquest were Martha Stone , J . Green , John Walker , Matthew Hunt , and John Spencer , who deposed to the following : —That on Saturday night last , George Mills , the deceased , and James Troth , were drinking together at the Ma / tsters' Arms , at the Gutter , Belper , with several others . Some angry wordg having passed between them , about half-past eleven o ' clock deceased got up and went towards his home ( which is at the Whitemoor Hall , near Beiper ) , and when he had proceeded about 150 yards , James Troth came up and struck
at deceased , but hit one of the witnesses , Maitha Stone , in the face ; he afterwards procured a stone , and , it was supposed , struck deceased with it , which caused a fight to ensue in a channel leading from a gutter to the Derby road , and afterwards in a field near that place , belonging to Mr . Litchfield , called the Home Close . About thirty or forty rounds were fought , and the manner of fighting was this , James Troth for the most part batting with his head , at the same time using his fists , and always ( until the three last rounds ) having the rising ground . The deceased fell several times with the back part of his head on the gronnd . After the fi ^ ht had continued about an hour deceased was butted down with great violence , and was taken up insensible . Means were resorted to to restore animation for more than
three houra , but to no purpose , and about four o ' clock he died . A post mortem examination of the body was made on Monday morning , by Mr . Evane , surgeon , of Belper , and several ounces of coagulated blood were found upon the brain , and nearly a piut of blood in the back part of the head , which was stated to be the cause of death . Mr . Evans stated that he believed the repeated knocks down the deceased met with . enlarged and filled the bloodvessels of the head , until at last they burst , and insensibility and death vould immediately ensue . The man being in a state of intoxication at tbe time materially facilitated the fatal event . After a very
careful inquiry and patient investigation , a rerdicc of manslaughter was returned against James Troth as principal , and Edward Troth and Jeffery Jowett as seconds . Four others , named Samuel Parkin , John Robinson , Edward Ford , and Samuel Lander , were proved to have assisted , and will be prosecuted for trespass . George Mills , the deceased , was in general a hard-working man , and bore a good c haracter , but being overtaken in liquor , he has paid his life as a forfeit for his indiscretion . The principal , James Troth , has absconded , and the other two were committed to Derby County Gaol , and will take their trial ftt the next March assizes . —Nottingham Review .

ON THE PROPRIETY OF THE WORKING CLASSES JOINING THE CORN LAW REPEALERS AS A MEANS OF
OBTAINING THE CHARTER . Mouibmy . —Is this proceeding just and honourable ? Westmoreland ^ - ^ - Isyour assembly sa ? York . —Will you thus broak faith ? Lancaster . —I pawned you none . Second Part , Henry IF . Sir , —When men h&ve a great object to attain , it is usual for them to endeavour to obiain that object by whatever means present themselves ; and , although it may be more consonant with the better and higher feelings of humanity to use oono bnt those which are strictly honourable , still , if tha parties with whom we have to do keep no measure of faith ; if they Tesorfc to anything or everything no matter how tricky or base , to prevent us obtaining our just ends ; 1 think the end would sanctify the means , even if we did return the contents of the poisoned chalice to their own lips , and hoist them from their unjust position by means of their own petard .
Such , I contend , is the situation of the working classes in regard to the two great factions which , at present , rule over the destinies of this country . Let them disagree upon whatever else they may , they always agree upon the great point of insulting and trampling upon that class which produces all the wealth in which-they wallow . If the working cksa attempt ; to reason with them , aud tell them that God has made all equal , and that therefore they have a right to have a voice in the making the laws by which they are to be governed , one of the factions laugh in their face , tell them at once there is no right but that of conquest , and , with all the modesty imaginable , point to the bullet and bayonet as the tenure of their authority . If not satisfied
with this , they tell them that , at least , as they have produced all the food , they ha » e a right to what will keep body and bouI together in sickness or in ago ; the other faction , more wily , but not less deadly , wrlth . all the canting hypoorisy of a Maworm , tells them that "Nature ' s table is full , " and that" noue have a right to food but those who have got patents for it ; " that "they must practice moral restraint ; " that " they must take care and not breed faster than capital has occasion for them ; " and that they will , by those means , pi event the over-stocking of the labour market ; but that above ail things they must " practice frugality , " and " accumulate as much in health as will maintain
them in sickness or age ; " and that by those means they will become " independent labourers " and that when they have become more " educated , " and consequently more "intelligent , " they wiJ ] be AiiJy competent to understand these sublime discoveries of political economy whioh prove that mhappropriatud machinery causes more labour , and consequently better wages ; that taxes , although they take a third of his earnings , return in fructifying showers ; and that a repeal of the corn laws would make a complete paradise of this country . But let the working cla ? s once appear to doubt these beautiful theories , and talk about having controul over the products or their own labour , this hypocritical faction point with evident gusto at the bullet and the bayonet , as the last reason in ( heir political economy .
Such being the situation of the working classes , and it being evident that the middle classes will not assist the working classes to obtain that voice in the making of the laws which alone can permanently better their condition , until they , the middle olas ^ es , become alarmed for their own situation , I contend that it is tho duty of the working classes to endeavour by all means within their power to bring about a consummotion so devoutly to be wished . And I contend that one of the greatest of those means , which would make the middle classes alarmed for th « r own situation ,. would be the repeal of the Corn Laws ; as it is their- own pet measure—as they expect
from it to have prosperity for ages— as they hope by it to g ( t their feet permanently upon onr necks , and as it will ( I am as certain of it as I am that fire burns ) assuredly trundle them into the streets—lot us by all means assist them to obtain it . By that course we should obtain one of two good things ; either the thing would be set at rest , or , which ia more probable , ( as in my opinion the Repealers are not sincere , they , knowing too well what would be the result , ) they would give up the agitation at once , terrified at their own prospect of success ; and thus we should put them to a test which would settle the matter either one way or the other .
But you will say how could the Chartist assist the Repealer ; or how could we advise them to it , seeing that both the Chartists and we have repeatedly denounced the agitation ! It is true that you both , have denounoed it when proposed as a measure which was to bring effectual relief . But I advise the Chartists to assist the Repealers as a measnre which would either test the Repealers , or which would greatly add to the mass of ruin and discontent . To the ruin of the manufacturers there is not the slightest doubt but it would add the ruin and discontent of the agriculturalists . Therefore , although you may be Batibfied , that the repeal of the Corn Laws would completely fail as a remedy for our national difficulties , still that does not prevent tho Chartists assisting , or you from a'ivising them to assist , the agitation , provided that you be convinced that it would either test one set of enemies , OR HARASS BOTH OP TIIKM .
But it will be said , that it would be unjust to the agriculturist to repeal the Corn Laws with the present amount of taxation . I grant that it would be unjust , if the taxation was at all necessary to the security of the country , or if the present debt had . been incurred for the service of the people . But what are tbq facts I For what , or how , was the debt contracted ? The only ostensible object for which it would be pretended to be contracted was the protection of property . Thus it is decidedly
unjust to tax a whole community for the paying of that debt which . was avowedly contracted for the benefit of a few . If foreign produce can be brought into the market at half the present price in England , that would cause prices here to fall to the Continental price ; that would cause the farmer to be unable to pay their present amount of rent , wages , and taxes , which would ruin the farmer , humble tho aristocracy , and add vastly to the mass of discontent , and-consequently cause ail to cry aJoud for the Charter .
But I shall very probably be told here that the repeal would give such an impetus to trade that it would cause our ' capitalists and labourers to be content with their situation ; in short , as one of them said to the writer , "it would destroy all agitation for the suffrage , by causing us to have prosperity for ages . " Never was idea more fallacious t Hour could it causa an increase in the consumption of manufactured articles \ It is easy to talk in loose and general terms in this way ; but will they tell ua ftotw it is to effect this \ By causing the prices of all articles of consumption co fall , say fifty per cent ., it would cause the receivers of taxes to receive double the amount of goods which they now receive for the same nominal amount of taxes ; but
how the deuce , that is to be a benefit exceeds my comprehension . But still this is not telling us how this repeal is to cause an increase of the consumption of manufactured articles ax a whole . Thia still remains . to be proved . I shall be told , in loose terms , that there will bo a vast quantity more corn imported , and that tnty will take pay in goods . This , even , is contrary to fact , however pretty in theory ;• for the Repealers themselves have complained tha ' . tho cause of our difficulties haa been that we had to pay the foreigners for their wheat in gold . Bjt , however , I will admit the fact , that they would take pay in goods , for the sake of coming fairly at the argument . Theu uow should the Repeal cause us to want aa extra quantity of corn 1 Suppose that we had been yearly receiving a iiiillion quarters to make up our
deficiency , how would the Repeal cause us to want a greater quantity \ But suppose that we import even two million quarters , O ! what foreign trade it would create ; but should wo not want one million less from the home grower ? And suppose that we have been exchanging a yard of cloth for a bushel of wheat , arrd that wo had been in the habit of givng one million yards of cloth for the one million bushels of wheat which we got from the home grower ; and suppose that , by way of ' * extending our commerce " we got our . million bushels of corn from the foreigner , for which wo «; ve him the one million yards of cloth we had used to give to the home grower , how , pray , in this cane , had we increased our commerce Ah ! the whole thing is fallacious from begining to end . The thing would produce nothing but misery , and consequently discontent , as long as the present taxes remain .
But it will be said that we are inconsistent ; that we are making a sacrifice ' of-principles ; that we have pledged our .-elves to " the Charter , the whole Charter , and nothing bnt the Charter . " Troe , we have ; and I would stand to that pltdge , same and all . But what then ? Are we bound to follow one course in order to redeem that pledge ! Can we make no bye-play ? Are we to make no diversion in favour of our object ; or even are we not to take advantage of diversions when made by other parties ?
Let us not play such a foolish part ; bnt let ua rather take advantage of the mine themselves have sprung , and by it blow both factions at the moon . Then if they should commence an agitation again , let us push them on to the obtaining of the measure , or compel them to recede , terrified a 6 the prospect of their own success . But let ub not give ^ up our own agitation : let us persevere with that in order tbat we may form a pablic opinion to be always _ __ ready when the day of trial comes in order that we ^ fj IJ * n . may be able * to take advantage of every circnmBjgjw ^ JjjkgTgL ^ f \ which offers in our favour . r % L , & & "J T ^ Sj *} If anything is said in answer to this , let it be a £ ji ^ y ' ^ l ^ yMl Si gument , audnoUbuse . w ^ fSte ^ Sf * 'V v ; ISM '
