AX ODE TO LIBERTY . Pear theme on which my muse delights to dwell , Again my lowly harp shall speak thy praise , Inspire my sonl with fervid truth to tell Tnejjys that live in thy fair works and ways . Xst not she proud despise my humble lays , ^ f or Eparn their subject with contemptuous Ecorn , Let not the poor forget that thy bright rays , Are df zzMng in the sunVcinis of the morn ; Oh ! glorious libe-ty , thy prototype is born In every insect that dispons in air ; The -wind that waves the . fields of yellow corn , D ^ th on it * wings the god-like spirit bear ; Thy voice is in the roaring of the fctorm , Thy force is in the dash of ocean ' s waves , Thy mild , but mighty , puie ceiestial form
Fills high with hope the souls of saffcriag slaves . The simple flowers that deck the pariot 3 ' graves , Tne lark that sins s melodious in his flight , The limpid stream whose lucid water laves The daisy banks , and makes them green and bright A thousand choristers in dell and grave , Oxi moor , and mountain , and in shady woods , The busy bees that through the meadows rove , And myriad fishes in the mighty floods ; The eagle towering o ' er the rocky steep , The wi d bird tkimxing o ' er the broad blue sea , The rush of winds that o ' er the waters 6 weep ,
And sounds that fill the beauteous world with glee ; The playful lambs that bisk in sun and shade , The savage beasts tfcat roam the forests free , All great and glorious things that God hath made Are emblems , dearest Liberty , of t&ee . Ye sors of men , when will your injured race Return to purity and uniTtrsal peace ? "When shall the pomp and pageantry of place , And all the clashing elements of party cease ? When shall the mental blindness of the soul , By troth enlightened , » xd by knowledge taught , Besolve to free itself froai that control , With which the kingdoms of the tarUa are fraught ? Whsa will muntind embrace the jus * arid true , By acting on the proverb , old asd wise—• ' To others do as ye'd be done unto ;"'
And envious thoughts and evil deeds despise ? When these things come , and come they surely will , For man by nature is humane and £ ood , He will not ever quarrel , maim , and kill , And make a trade ot shedding human blood . When wisdom ' s blessings , holy , t-ure , sublime , Are shower'd npon the nations of the earth , Then the long-hop'd for , fervid pray'd for time Shall come , and freedom wake again to birth . Bail wiah'd for time ! Hail hoiy freedcnTs reign ! Slaves of the earth bow ye before the shrine ; Let all joxrt voices swell the glorious strain In praise of love and liberty divine .

CARLISLE . —The Mjmcip ^ l Elections . — The annual municipal elections for this borough , to supply the vacancies caused bj the retiring members , panted oyer with comparative qaiet , and bus slight opposition , except in one or two warda , _ where an attempt was made to oust the popular candidates , but without effect . The members returned , for the different wards , are all Liberals , which signifies , by the comsaoii newtpapei acceptation—Whi ^ s ; indeed , the Tories here have never offered the least opposition to the Whig party , of which the present corporate body is principally composed . The Tories might , we believe , ware * they so inclined , return members forone or two of the wards ; but were they doing so , they are ful' . y aware that their weight in
the present corporate body wonld be comparatively light , and of little or no avail . If the return of members to serve in the Town Council , is to be made a political question , then we should say that the Chartist bodj have been very remiss in the performance of their duty , for they have never , with one exception in Botcher ^ ate ward , looked after the franchise . In this ward , several attempts have been made to disfranchise the most liberal portion of the burgesses , and had it not been for the praiseworthy exertions of several individuals , and the pecuniary aid of others , the burgess list would have been so Beriously curtailed , as to have allowed the Whig party to return who they might have thought proper , The point established by the burgesses in this ward
is one of great and paramount , importance to the country , and would , if generally acted upon , enable the Chartist body to infuse a much more liberal spirit into the > arious corporate bodies throughout the country . The point to which we have alluded has been established by the two late mayors and assessors for this borough ; and has enabled the Burgesses of the Ward to which we have alluded to place their names npon the register , in Epite of the many and lagitioas attempts to disfranchise them . The ground on which the attempts have been made to disfranchise a great portion of the Burgesses is , that they aTe not bona fide rate-payers , and it has been contended that except they pay their rates directly , they have no
right whatever to be placed upon the Burgess r . si . This ground of objection has , however , been overruled several times , and will not , we suspect , be again attempted . Why have not the Chartists in other Wards of the town acted upon this decision 2 Because they hsve apathetically set at naught the privilege conferred upon them by the Legislature , and considered its exercise of no m&teriil consequence . We will endeavour to convince them of their error , by pointing cut the great importance which they onght to attach to the securing and proper exercise of the ripht which they possess . A question of very great moment is now before the Town ; and for the careful consideration of which , & committee of the Council has been appointed to
make a report on the subject , which ! is , ' for the better supplying the town with water , and improving the sewerage . " Now , the Council have gone so far in this matter as to give instructions to the Town Clerk to give notice to Parliament of their intention to apply for an Act of Parliament on the subject ; and some members of the Lonncil have already contemplated the selling of portions of the corporation property , for the accomplishing of this , which they consider , laudable object , ihia conduct , to say the least of it , is rash and premature under present circumstances , for it is even a question with , many whether this plan , if carried into full and perfect operation , would either be profitable or beneficent te the town—at least , to the poorer nordon of the inhabitants—more especially
if * tax is to be imposed apon them for this purpose . "Under these circumstances , is it not absolutely necessary that discreet , clever , and , above * D , hones * men , who pay a dae amd feeling regard to the condition of the wording classes , —should be returned to the Town Council , and net men who only look at the improvement of eertain parts of the town , for their own and the bensfit of the wealshy portions of the inhabitants , utterly regardless of the real interest and comfort of the poorer portion ? There is one important future conneced w ; th t \ e question of water and sewerage , which is , that Carlisle is particularly well supplied with water already , and is cne of the cleanest towns in En&laud , Ireland , or Scotland , according to the population and the nature of the

emplojfient of t ; : e people generally . Yet , at the same time while we record this fact , we are not opposed to even a better supply of water , of a more wholesome kind ; and improvements in the sewerage , which would tend tj the promotion of the health of the inhabitants at lnr ^ e , but more especially those situated inlcverand more densely populated districts of the town . We have made these observations in a kind and friendly spirit , for we should feel ashamed were we actuated by party feeling , to sanction measures which were not for the general improvement of the town , and the lightening of all local burthens . — Correspondent .
LEICESTER . Ikdepekdent Ohder or U . MxtD Bkothshs—A new secret order , under thi 3 title , has been established here , the chief characterises of which are , that while as a body they make no pretention to M teetotalism , " their laws prohibit the use of intoxicating drinks at lodge meetings , and also the holding of those meetings at pablic hoEses . GATEHOUSE-ONXFLEET .-The teetotalers here held their annual soiree on Monday , the 30 th October , in the Town Hall , which was crowded to the door . Excellent addresses were delivered by several clergymen and others from a distance ; and the more to enliven the evening , beveral songs and recitations were given by members of the society .
But the most interesting part of the business was the presentation of a splendid silver medal and chain , and a beautiful pair of embosssed pocket bibles , to Mr . Juhn Donaldson , from a number of his friends and admirers in the South of Scotland , as a token of their esteem for hi 3 exertions in promoting teetotalism . They were presented b } Mr . Samuel Wallace , with an able andsunable address . aud Mr . Donaldson returned thanks in a feeling and eloquent manner . Mr . Donaldson is president of oar Charter Association , and one to whom we are much indebted for bis exertions and advocacy in the cause of Chartism . Long may he live to enjoy the approbation of his friends , and to advocate tha moral and political improvement of the human race .

Fatal Collisio > s at Sea . —On Sunday afternoon last , the Caledonia Bteamer , from Hamburgh , arrived off Gravesend , having in tow a vessel called the Louisa , belonging to St . Petersburgh , which had been met with disabled , and no person on board , while on the steamer ' s homeward passage , drifting about the German Ocean . The supposition entertained by the Caledonia's crew upon coming up with the vessel was that she had been in collision , for her bulwarks were stove ic , and altogether she was seriously injured about the hull and rigging . Since then it has been ascertained that such was really the case . It happened on the night of the 30 th of last month , dming a violent gale of wind from the S . W ,, abont seven mile 3 off the coast
at Ordfordness , and the other vessel proved to be the Swedish brig Revanche , belonging to Marseilles . The crew expecting the vessel would go down , jumped into ike long boat and made for shore , which they succeeded in reaching in safety . They say they shortly lost sight of the vessel , from which they believed she had sunk . Tne value of the Louisa is reported to be at least 41 , 600 . Accounts hare been received of the lota . 1 Joss of the bark Jackson , Cap tain Caithmer , belonging to Dundee , which is said to have resulted in consequence of her comma in collision with another vessel on the night of the 2 Sth cf October , near the east , coast of Gothland , while on her voyage frpm Liverpool to Dundee Her crew consisted of twelveindividuals . of whom five met with a watery grave , namely , the mate , two seamen , and two boys . The rest saved themselves by
the chip ' s boat . On Friday last , the 4 ' . h instant , a dreadful collision occurred in the Channel , occasioned by the darkness of the night . It took place about eleven o ' clock , near the Skerries , between the Reform , a schooner , from Tralee to Liverpool , and another schooner , name at present unknown . Such was its violence , that the former commenced filling rapidly , 3 nd there was scarcely time for the crew to save themselves before she went down in sixteen fathoms water . She is insured for £ 81 ) 0 . On the same day another schooner , named the Hope , was run down at the entrance of North Shields harbour by ihe Union , a brig belonging to that port . The latter was criven into the harbour under stress of weather , and it is d-iscribed to have been entirely accidental . There is some chance of her being raised if the weather moderates .
A Street Passenger in Washington . —Here is a solitary swine lounging homeward by himself . He has . only one ear , having parted with the other to vagrant dogs in the course of his city rambles . But he gets on very well without it , and leads a roving , gettlemauly , vagabond kind of life , somewhat answering to that of our clubmen at home . "He leaves his lodgings every morning at a certain hour , throws himself upon the towu , gets through his day in some manner quite satisfactory to himself , and regularly appears at the door of his own house again at night , like the mysterious master of Gil Bias . He is a free-and-easy , cvelees , indifferent kind of pig , having a very large acquaintance among other pigs of the same character , whom he rather knows by sight than conversation , as he seldom trcuble 3 himself to stop and exchange civilities , bat goes grunting down the kennel , turning up the news and small
talk of the city in the shape of cabbage-stalks and offall , and bearing n < 3 tails but his own , which is a very short one ; for his old enemies , the dogs , have been at that too , and have left him hardly enongh to swear by . He is in every respect a republican pig , going wherever he pleases , and mingling with the best society , on an equal , if not superior footirg , for every one makes way when he appears , and the haughtiest will give him tho wall , if he prefer it . He is a great philosopher , and seldom moved , unless by the doge before mentioned . Sometimes , indeed , you may see his email eye twinkling on a slaughtered friend , whose carcass garnishes a butcher ' s door-post , but he grunts out " Such is life—all flesh is pork ! " buries his noEe in the mire again , and waddles down the gutter , comforting himself with the re flection that there is one snout the less to anticipate stray cabbage-stalks , at any rate . —Box on America .
Attempted Murder of a Father * t a Sox . — On Thursday morning a rumour , from some circumstances , became prevalent that an attempt at murder had been made by a lad of the name of Bradner , residing in the Water-gate upon his father , which induced the authorities to make investigation into the matter , the result of which was , that it was found necessary to commit him . From what we can learn of the matter the Bon bad been for some time addicted to intemperate habits , and came home to his father on Sunday morning , requesting some money from him . The father refused , and locked him up in a room to prevent him from going out again ; bat he got hold of a shoemaker's knife , by means of which he managed to epen the door , aud rnsbing upon his father drew it across his throat . Fortunately , however , although the wound kflictcd was a very alarming one , it was not such as to deprive him of life . Dr . Halkes was immedietcly seut for , who sewed if up , and the father is now doin ^ well . — Perth Courier .

Mr . William Hone , the well-known author of tns Every-Duy Book and other popular works died on Sunday last at his houss in Grove-place , Tottenham , after a long illness and much suffering , which he bore with the most exemplary patience . In early life he was celebrated as one of the first satirical writc-rs of the day ; his " Political House that Jack built went through upwards of fifty editions , and it isi said , that by illustrating this and similar works the fame of George Cruikshank waa first established . By putting one of his satires into the form of the Liturgy of the Church of England , he was prosecuted for blasphemy ; and his trial before Lord iMlenborough , which lasted threedays , and iu which he successfully defended himselc in per-ou , with the greatest ability , may be considered one of the causes celebres of this country . When Dr . Stodart established the paper , now extinctcalled the New Times
, , Mr . Hone published an admirable burlesque of it , in the form of a newspaper , called the Slap at Slop , by which he gave a nickname to , and effectually demolished , that very frothy and pompous person Having abandoned his career as a satirist , he appeared in later yeara as the editor of the Every-Dny Book , the Year Book , and the Table-Book , three works , all on the same principle of giving antiquarian information in a popular form , and all exhibiting the indefatigable perseverance aud research of Air . Hone . The Every-Day Book , in which the information given is connected with the days in the year , may be cousidered as a standard library book . Towards the close of his life , he became oue of the conductors of the Patriot newspaper , and in this situation he continued till increasing infirmity , occasioned not so much by years as by the unremitting labours of his life , cau&ed him to retire from
every active pursuit . Melakcuolt Catastrophe at Rofford . —It is our melancholy duty this week to record an event which has caused some consternation in the neighbourhood in which it has unfortunately happened , a nd which ought to be the means of preventing others from pursuing a similar practice , wnich has brought two unfortunate fellow-creatures to an untimely grave . George Brookes , waggoner to the Right Hon . tho Earl of Scarborough , aged thirty-eight , aud Ann Brookes , his wife , aged thirty , resided in a cottage near the noble Eari ' a mansion , at Rufford ; and it appears that on Monday , the 24 th ult ., Ann Brookes had been whitewashing one of the bed-rooms upstairs .
in which she and her husband usually slept , and in order to dry it soon , she placed an iron pan in the room , iuto which she put some stickc , and set fire to them . This was during tho day . At night , when they went to bed , they took the warming-pan up stairs to warm the bed ; and it is supposed that either the woman or her husband , incautiously recruited the ember- * , and , shutting the door close , went to bed . About four o ' clock the next ; momiug , Brookes not coming to look after his horseB as usual , one of his follow servants went and rapped at the door , and , supposing that would wake him , he weni away , five o ' clock arrived , but still Brookes did not make his appearance ; on which his fellow-servant
went again , and , knawiag that there waa a boy sleeping in an adjoining chamber , he rapped until the boy got up , ana ordered him to go and see if anything was the matter with George . The boy accordingly went and opened the chamber dosr , and , entering the room , was almost suffocated with the smell of sulphor . On looking tt > ro » rds the bed he was horrorstruck to find Brookes partly on the bed , but with his face on the Hjjr , surrounded by a pool of bload . H& was quite dead and cold , and his wife was laid in bed beside him a cold and lifeless corpse . He immediately opened the door , and the melancholy fact having been more fully ascertained , medical aid was immediately sent for , but it was quite unavailing , the vital spark having evidently been extinct for eoxne hours . —Nottingham Journal .
History of Prime Ministers , from the Conquest to the Restoration . —To contemplate for si . me centuries the fat © of" the Ministers of England , who fell vio-ims to the caprice of the Court , the corruption of the times , or their own treacherous conduct , may bo a subject worthy of the philosopher , who penetrates into the causes and effects of human affairs . This may be deemed a curious article , and inapplicable in these days , every circumstance having been totally changed , and many of the grievances of which onr ancestors so jmtly complained , removed . In the perusal of this abridgment of history , we leave our readers to form a judgment of the following asserrion , advanced by a philosopher of the sixteenth century , as wise a politician as England ever produced , " That there never yet was a prime minister of Great Britain , but either broke iiis own neck , or his master ' , or both , unless he saved his own by the sacrifice of his master ' s .

The circumstance appears to have been kept so secret , that the neighbours who lived nearly adjoining , knew nothing of the occurrence till nearly a week afterwards ; then , in consequence of Miss Nudd being in a very dangerous state , it became necessary to hive medical advice , and a snrgeon was sent for , who prescribed for her , but it appears ma'ie no particular inquiry as to the birth of tho child , but directed it to be sent to his surgery or house . The child was kept in a box for several days , but the unfortunate young woman continuing to get" worse , Borne little publicity was
given to the circumstance . About a week after this occurrence the uncle of Miss Nudd sent to Mr . Pilgrim , the county coroner , informing him of the death of a child , leaving him to use his own discretion as to any inquiry . The coroner , considering it his duty to have the matter thoroughly investigated , a jury was impannelled , and the surgeon was summoned to be in attendance . A long and tedious examination took place , the coroner having found it necessary to adjourn the inquest three times . At the conclusion of the inquiry , they were unanimous in their verdict of" Wilful iuurder against Ltnily Nudd , who destroyed her female i \\ egit \ va&te child by strangulation . " The coroner immediately issued his warrant for her committal to the county gaol , but the unfortunate young woman is not at present in a state to be removed from her uncle ' s residence . Tha several witnesses were also bound over to appear and give evidence at tho next assizes . Singular PLEfGE . —We have just heard the following story , but cannot vouch for its truth . A young woman went into a pawnbroker ' s establishment , not many miles from Kilmarnock , the other day , with a basket containing a quanity of china , which she wished to pledge with " mine uncle" for £ 2 . After examining the conteDts of the basket , ho gravely stated he could only advance the half of that sum . In reply to his statement sho said she wa 3 a servant , and that the articles were the property ef her mi&tress , whom she would require to consult before taking the money . She therefore left tho effice for that purpose , and in a short time returned with the basket , saying that her mistress would take what was offered . k- Miue uncle" again glanced into tho depository of tho precious ware , and saw
that it apparently contained tho same goods that he formerly examined . The cash was then paid to tho woman , who immediately left the house , and the case was then carefully set aside . In a short time afterwards a feeble cry was he * td by the broker issuing from the basket , which he again examined , and in which ' , to bis utter astonishment , he found a fino child carefully wrapt in flannel , and over which a slight covering of china had been ingeniously placed for the purpose of deception . The pawnbroker , it is Eaid , applied to the authorities for a nurse to the little pledge , but was told that , like other pledge ^ , he was bound to keep it for twelve months , and if not redeemed at the end of that time , to bring it to the hammer , like other pawned property !"—Ayr Observer .
Four Persons Poisoned at Guyhirn , near Wis-BEAca . —A very serious case of poisoning occurred on Sunday last ; from the evidence it appeared thut a mau naned W . Newbound , a shoemaker , his wife , a grandchild who was staying for a few weeks with him , and the daughter of a neighbour who lived in the next house , sat down to a dinner composed of a piece of pork , with a pudding baked under it ; they had hardly finished eating the pudding before they were seized with violent vomiting . A messei .-gir was immediately dispatched to Wisbeach for assistance , and Mr . Ollard , surgeon , was promptly hi attendance ; he administered tbenecessary remedies , and left them apparently better . In the evening Mr . Ollard was again seDt for to the man anu woman , they being much worse ; before he arrived , the man . had died , and the woman was in such a state as left no hope of her recovery ; she expired
in great pain after the surgeon had left her . The time between the man ' s being first taken ill aud his death was only eight hours : in the case of the woman it was twelve hours . The bodies were examined on Tuesdav , when the state of the stomachs left no donbt of their having taken some mineral poison , bat what it consisted of remains for the chemist to prove , on the stomachs or their contents , together with tho pudding that was left , being submitted to tests . A very respectable jury met at the Blaok Hart on Tuesday , and at the close of the day ' s iiivtotigation only three witnesses had been examined . The inquest was adjourned until Thursday . There are rumours afluat of suspicions against parties , but we do not at present feel justified in s ' . tuing names . By next week no doubt the inquest will be concluded . The children were very ill after the pudiiing , but are now out of dangpr . ^ -Stamford Merr . ury .

Melancholy and Fatal Circumstance . —A very melanchol y and fatal circumstance occurred in our gaol last night . The facts are these : —This morning , at the usual hour , the turnkey of the felon 8 * cell proceeded to that part of the prison for the purpose of unlocking the cells . On reaching the oemre cell , at the entrance of which a Btove is placed , he was perfectly horror-struck to perceive three of the prisoners in a state of insensibility . Two of them were almost lifeless at . the time thfty were discovered , and in a few minutes afterwards life was completely extinctTheir
. name 3 are Wm . Sullivan ( under sentence of transportation for seven years ) , and Edm . Burko , charged with the robbery of Mr . Holmea ' s fire-arms , in . the Glen , of AherW . The third man , named Callagar , charged with a similar offence , still survives , and hopes are entertained of his recovery . It eeems that this fatal occurrence was caused by an aperture in the flue of the stove , in which stone coal was burning , and the deaths were caused by suffocation . We visited the oell at eleven o ' clock this morning , and even at that time the smell was most offensive and suffocating . An inquest was held before Mr . W-. Ryan , coroner , and after a patient investigation the following verdict was retprhed : — "Wefihduhat tho deceased , Edmund Burke aud William Sullivan , came by their deaths from Buffoeation , by inhaling carbonic acid gas , which gas escaped from a tube leading from a stove ; and we beg to draw the attention of the Gaol Committee to the necessity of having the tube removed from its
present position and put in a safe place . " Since the foregoing was in type the other unfortunate man , Gallagher , has died . —Tippcrary Constitution of Friday .

Precautions to save Children from being Bkrned . —At this season of the year it is truly painful to read the accounts which appear not only every week , but almost every day in the week , in the public journals , of young children being burned to death . These sad calamities are generally owing to the carelessness of mothers and servants leaving children not only without protectors , but iu many instances actually locked in rooms where there are fires . Wherever this practice exists there must be the greatest danger , owing to the natural fondness of children for playing with tiro . Tho use of a simple wire guard would save many lives . Linen pinafores are much less liable to take fire than cotton ones . It
ought also to bo known that in oase of the olothes of a child taking fire , the best means of extinguishing it is by throwing the child on the floor , and wrapping it in blanket or woollen cloth of any kind . As long as the child is in an upright position the flames from tho clothes burn fiercely , as their natural tendency is towards the head ; aud , consequently , if the child be laid down , thV fUmea will instantly become feebler , and bo much wore easily extinguished . To smother the fire by wrappiug the child in s * woollen cloth , is a much quicker and safer mode than by tearing the clothes off piecenual . After a burn no application is better than a plentiful sprinkling of flour .
The Poor Laws in Ireland . — A Bankrum ? Union . —A notification appears in tho Cork Reporter from : he guardians of the Middloton Uaion , declaring themselves unaVlo any longer to carry on the a flairs of the institution tor the absolute want of funJs . "In fact , " remarks the Reporter , " they liavii virtually gaz 3 ited the union , and lctt the Workhouio in the hands of the master to do the best he can with the paupers that aro in it . This is really a Bad ntate of things ; bub it is only what we anticipate in many o : her unions , where the intolerable pressure of taxation is already felt so severely that the rate-payers will , in all probability , be driyea to follow tho example of their brethren in a particular district of the iKilniallock Union some months ago , who having only a very small number of paupers in the workhouse t ' rotn their electoral division rose en
masse and carried them away , declaring they would make arrangements to support them among themselves , and not be burdened with any portion of the general taxation f low this very bold and decisive proceeding terminated we are not awaro ; but we shall watch any proceedings that may result from the resolution of the Middleton guardians , inasmuch as we regard it as the first step taken by any such body calling imperatively on the commissioners and the Government to adopt such a course as will render tr . e operation of the law less difficult and encumbered than it has hitherto been found in every part of the country . "
Wholesale Infanticide . —We have this week the paiaful duty of recording a case of long continued and inhuman depravity almost unparalleled in the annals of crime . It appears that a woman named Frances Bennet residing at Ruarden-hill , in the Forest of Dean , being very ill , and probably fearing to die with the undivided guilt of murder upon her conscience , communicated to tho Rev . H . Formby , curat' ) of liuarden , that about twelve months siu . ee . he b :-came the mother of a child by a man named Thomas Yapp , with whom she had been cohabiting for abaut . eight or ten years , which child , after it had Jived a few days , sho destroyed by poisoning it ; after which she and Yapp buriud it beneath the pavement of the brewhouse . The wretched woman
further added , that she bad been the mother of five oth « r children by the same rilan . all of whom she had murdered at their birth , and with Yapp ' s assistance had buried their bodies at separate spots beneath the floor of the browhouse and near a barn adjoining her cottage . These horrid confessions secmed , frem their unexampled atrocity , to be more like the ravings of delirium than truth ; but upon information being given to the police , and a . search being made in the apots indicated by the innatural woman , the skeletons of her six murdered offsprings were all found , and stamped truth upon a tale too horrid else for belief . Upon this , Yapp was taken iuto custody , and a policeman , we believe , remained to take charge oi ' the woman , who repeated her confession
to her sister , and afterwards to the policeman , Fowler . The facts were intimated to Mr . J . Cook , and a warrant was issued for summoning a jury to hold an inquest . By this time , however , tho woman Frances Bennet , had recovered in a measure the hardihood of her character ; and on the inqueefc , which was held on Tuesday last , she positively denied that Khe had over given birth to auy children , except to two , which she bore to her late husband , and which were alive now ; and ehe strongly persisted that she had never made any communioatioa such as that above stated , either to her sister , to the policeman Fowler , or to the clergyman , the Rev . Mr . Fortnby . The latter gentleman wasexamiued by the coroner , and deposed as above ; and he further
admitted that the woman had subsequently made further disclosures and confessions to lr ' m , but as they were made to him in his spiritual capacity , he must decline to divulge them . After , without effect , endeavouring to prevail upon Mr . Formby to state all that the woman had told him , and after unavailing remonstrances against tho withholding of evidence , the Coroner left the point as it stood , and passed onto tbe examination of the sister of Frances Bennett , whose evidence was to the effect , that on Saturday last , the 29 th of October , she was with her sister , who had been in a weak state of health for some time , and had been confined to hrr bed for about a week ; that before Mr . Formby calleO , her sister made an alarm , aid exclaimed that she would have her dead children dug up and buried in the churchyard . She
said that she delivered herself of the children over a pan of water , and that immediately after the infants were bora she held them under tne water till they were dead , and that tben she and Yapp buried them . She added , that the last of tie six children was not served in this way , but lived for two days ; that it was weakly , and she gave it some arsenic . and it died ; that Yapp was very Borry when he found this child was dead , and eaid he would not have lont it for £ 50 ; and that they both together burifcd the child in the brewhouse . At this Btage of the proceedings it was thought advisable to adjourn the inquiry , in order to afford opportunity for further aud more deliberate inquiry into the circumstances of this mysterious and very extraordinary case , and tha inqu-st was accordingly adjourned till Wednesday , the 9 \ . h inst . — Gloucester Chronicle .

Hayti . —Accounts published in the Kingston papers from Hayti assert that President Boyerhad issued a proclamation calling in the ten doll , notes in circulation . Of his ability to pay them off grave doubts aro expressed from the known low conditioa of tha Treasury . The exchange was to be made at fifty per doubloon , but as the provisio exists that any person tendering false notes is to be severely punished , the whole proclamation is regarded with suspicion . It is alleged that this is adopted by the President as a pretex . to dishearten parties bringing the notes forward , lest by the military dictum of the authorities they should be declared false—a declaration which would surely be followed by a confiscation of their property . The admission is made that false notes have been introduced into circulation , but since the President bad at the time the full opportunity of
suppressing them , and punishing the importers , it is regarded as rigorous in the extreme to punish those who may nappea to beinnooent possessors . If tho proposition simply went to impound the counterfeit paper , it could then be viewed in no other light than a salutary precaution , and would be open to no censure . Many of the merchants were doubtful as to the real intention of the President being an exchange for specie , and believed , on the contrary that there would be a mere exchange for one dollar and two dollar notes . Commerce and all branches of industry are stated to be at a stand . As a proof of the incompetency of the Treasury to meet the drain of specie which a bona fide calling in of the ten dollar notes would produce , its stock of hard dollars is estimated at 800 , 000 , out of which the pay of the military has also to be disbursed .
Removal of the Stafford Convicts to thk Hulks . —In the notice whicU has appeared in the papers en this subject , there are some inaccuracies which we are requested to comet . A 3 tho followiug information is derived from the most authentic sourco . it may be saftly relied upon ¦ : — "All the conviots sentenced to be transported without imprisonment have been removed to the hulk at Gosport—52 in number . Not one has had his sentence of transportation commuted to six months' imprisonment . There are not any left in the prison for transportation for Beveu years , except two , who have received sentence of six months' imprisonment foranoMer crime , and aro afterwards to be transported . There ib not any foundation for presuming that any
tranports will be Bent to the Model Prison at Pentcnville . Not any of tho convicts have their families of eight children , as the following list will clearly show : — Wife and five children , three ; wife and four children , five ; wife aud three children , threo ; wife and two ohildren , six ; wife and one . child , eight ; wife and not any children , one ; single twenty six ; total fiftytwo— "Evening Star . ¦ DtsPERATfi Outrage and Gallant Resistance . —At Ballygraigue , in tho vicinity ot" this town , on the night of Mouday , a number of men broke into the house of James and John Power . James , who was in the act of reading a religious book for his infirm mother , had a pistol pointed at his head by a miscreant who Bwore that he would bomi change bis
devotion , and ordered him to go on his knees until he shot him . The young man , notwithstanding tho pistol being presented at him , sprung , lion-like , on his inteuded murderer , and wrunj ; the pistol from his grasp , exclaiming , at the same time , " That if he was to die , it would not he on his knees " Two more ruffians rushed in to the rescue of their accomplice , beat Power to the ground , and deprived him of the pistol . > John Power now joined his brother , and having knocked down One of the follows , who who was trampling on his brother , a pistol was presented at him , with an execration that his brains would be blown out if he stirred a hand , Henry Power , who had been in bed , now came to the assistance of his brothers , armed with a shovel ,
and cleaved the head of the ruffian who held the piatol ; the miscreant fell , and while down , ho gave him three blows of the edge of the shovel . Seven or eight men broke into the house , every secc » nd mau of whom was armed with a pistol ; the candle being extinguished the conflict became general and desperate , and there can be no doubt but it was the fear of shooting some of their own party , that prevented the discharge of tho pistols . Patrick Power , a young m » 'i , upon whose sight the Lord was pleased to set the seal of darkness , groped out . and seized one of the fellows by the throat , and would have choked him , had it not been that the wretched bting cried out lor mercy ; and the young man , from a religious feeling , let the miscreant go unstraugled .
So desperate was the resistance the Powers gave , that they cleared the kitchen of their assailants , and barred the door against them . While taking other measures to secure tho place they heard a bustle iu tha room , and turning in they found that they had two of tho fellows inside . Ot these they determined to make prisoners , but they calling out , " 5 th Regiment , will you leave us to be murdered ! " the doors aud windows were all smashed in with large stones ; the sang re-entered , and the terrific struggle recommenced . The Powers fought for lite and death , and owe their escape to the number of their opponents , who in raauy instances beat each other in an unmerciful manner through mistake
It being understood by them that one of the women had escaped out of the house and was going to give the ahvm , they retreated , bearing one of thoir comrades almost Hfel 6 S 9 on their shoulders , and leaving behind them a loaded pistol , with the lock broken off , two hats , and a clan-alpine . They were not long gone wheu the Billinacloufi , h poHe , e and Ballygrai # ue boys , armed with pitchfork * and other missiles , surrounded tho house under the impression that the gang was inside ; but , on finding their disappointment , they Bcoured the country , but without any fcffct . There w ? re traces of blood round the haggard of the Powers ; and in one spot there was nearly tho full of a basin , and the straw about it waa saturated . —Nenunh Guardian .

BAIL COURT , LONDON—Monday : Nov . 7 . ( Sittings in Bunco be / ore Mr . Justice Futlison . J THE QUEEN V . THOM . \ S BADGER , ESQ ., AND THE REV . H . W . CAHTW 1 UGHT , CLKRK . Mr . ERLE applied to the Court npon the part of ATthur Geoige ON « A 1 , a Chartist , for a rule calling upun the def e nda n ts , who are Justicuaof Pence for the comity of Stafford , to ebow cause why a criminal information should not be filed against them fur having illegall y , partially , and corruptly refused to aucept bail upon the part of O'Neil , there being no objection made to the persons tendered as bail , except that they were alleged to be of the same political principles which were professed
by O'Neil himself . It appeared frem the statement of tbe Learned Counsel , that Mr . O Neil , who waa said to be a preacher of the Gospel , was , upon the 29 th of August last , brought before the Justices upon a charge of having attended an illegal meeting , and that the Justices required him to enter into his own reeognizmce for £ 200 , and to give two other uviretiea for £ 100 each , to appear and take his trial for the offence . They also requited that forty-eight hours' notice of bail should be given to the aolicltotffor the Crown , and they committed O Neil to custody in the meantime . Upon the following morning a person of the name of Collins attended before the Justices and gave in , upon O'Neil ' s part , the names of two persons named Page and
Trueman , to be his bail . These persons , being members of the Town-Council of Birmingham , were obliged , according to the General Corporation Amendment Act , to have a qualification of £ l-, 000 overand above all their ju&fc debts , uad were therefore unexceptionable in n pecuniary point of view . But upon their being presented to the magistrates , Mr . B&dger asked Page whether he had not presided at a Chartiat meeting In Birmingham in 1842 , and asked Trueman whether he had not taken an active part In the proceedings of , tqe same meeting , and in those of the Chartists in General in the same neighbourhood ? It was answered that Page had presided at the meeting npon certain restrictive conditions which had been complied with ; that Tiueman had
actually opposed the proceedings of the meeting In question ; and that with regard to Chartism itself , there were several Terr different aorta of it , as Christian Chartists , Moral-force Chaitista , and Physical-force Char-Usts . The parties , however , persevered in refusing the bail , alleging that they had other objections which they did not think It neceesaiy to mention . O'Nell , in his affidavit , atatad that , in consequence of the refusal , be waa not only detained In prison for a considerable time , bnt was deprived of tho means of preparing for his defence , and was thsrefore under ths necessity of traversing when bia case was called on- _ A haoeas corpws bad been applied for to Mr .

. -,. » r ... ........- —>_» . - . j ^ ., ^ . — -, - .--- - ., ; jr . — ' - "H power to comply with tho application , as the commission for the trial of a'l the prisoners in custody at tbe time , including O'Neil himself , was then actually opined . The i > ame bail which hau been previously refused were then tendered anain , but Mr . Maule , the solicitor of the Treasury , although he admitted that tne persons were otherwise not exceptionable , refused . to consent to their being received npon the sole ground of their political opinions . The parties , however , having gone before Ljrd Chief Justice Tindal , werb by that learned judge , admitted at onca . Mr . Justice Paxteson observed , that npon the statement of the learned counsel , there appeared to be no evideuc of any corrupt motive having influenced the justices iu their conduct
Mr Justice PaUeson observed , that ho did not mean to state it aa his opinion that the conduct of the magistrates was at ail proper in the circumstances . The question upon the present applicatvia was not whether the justice * were justified in what they had done , bat whether they were bo manifestly influenced by partial and corrupt motives as to be liable to the peculiar and extraordinary proceeding of a crimal information . JBefure he ( Mr . Justice Patteeon ) granted such a rule as that which was now applied for , he must be satisued of the corrupt intentions and motives of the mneistrAtea by such conclusive and satisfactory evidence as he could
not parcelve to exist iu any degree in the present instince . Tne very thing which the magistrates had done in the cose in question had been formerly done in this court by" a learnea judge , who rejected a person who was tendered as bail , and who was uno ' sj ctloable in reference to the necessary amount of pecuniary qualification , but . who kept a gambling-house . That decision had , it was true , been subsequently overruled aad stt aside , and waa manifestly incorrect ; but it bad never been supposed that the party who made it had rendered himself thereby liable to a criminal
information-Mr . Erie observed , that his clients , in their affidavit , expressed 'their belief that toe' defendants ware influenced by illegal , partial , and corrupt motives iu refusing the bail . ' Mr . Justice Patteson observed , that the expressions of the deponents were laige enough in themselves , bat could tuve no influence on the Court unless they were support . 'd : by ¦ th © facts of the case . Prom the statement it only appeared tnat the magistrates considered th ; it the pecuniary sufficiency of the proposed bail was not tha only matter which they , the justices , ought to take into consideration ; but tnat t :: ey were also at liberty to act upon other grounds contested with the character of tbe proposed sureties .
Mr . Erie said that , as in general , it wonld not be supposed that persons in the situation of O'Neil could procure bail from any other class of persons except those who sympathised with bis political opinions , it would be a" most formidable doctrine to Jay down that a justice of the peace may refuse bail upon the ground of their political opinions being the same as those of the party for whom they proposed to become sureties . Mr . Erie submitted to his Lordship that there was a great Aiff ^ tftnee twtweea TejectAng a man as bail because be ktpt a gaming-house , or was otherwise liable to the sriniiaal justice of tha country for having committed some inuictabie offence , and rejecting him for no other reason than his conformity in political opinions with the party for whom he was to be bound .
Even the matters of fact alleged by the justices in the present instance as tbe grounds of their conduct were untruly alleged ; as one at least of the tendered bail expressly denied all connexion with tiie Ciiart ' . ats , and stated that he opposed the proceedings of the meeting which he was charged with having supported . But if the caaa were otherwise It would not weaken the grounds of the application , as the justices had no right to alter tbe measure of justice with any reference to tho politics of the parties ; and if they ( the justices ) had solely acted from political causes , it waa impossible for them to contend , that they were free from the imputation of partiality : whilst it may be said in addition tkat the fact of their declariag that they were intuenced by other motives , which they kept a secret from the parties , afforded the strongest presumption of corruption . ¦ ' . '¦¦
Mr . Justice Patteson directed the affidavits to be banded up to him , and stated that he should read them over before coming to a dual decision apon the application . Hin Lordship , however , expressed his present opinion to be that the affidavits disclosed no facts which would justify the Court in granting the rale .
