HOWARD and THOMAS continue to supply the Lisr, of Teeth without springs or wires upon their new system of SELF-ADHESION, which has procured them such uni- veijal approbation, and is recommended liy numerous Ph;sicians and Surgeons as being the most ingeAious system of supplying artificial teeth hitherto invented. They adapt themselves over the most tender gums, or remaining stumps without causing the least pain, rendering the painlul operation of extracting quite unnecessary. They are so fixedas to fasten any Iwse teeth where the gums have shrunk from the use of caionel or other causes. They also beg to invite those not likinsto undergo any painful operation as Drartiseol by most memlbrs of the profession, to inspect their painless yet eflectiv system; and in order that their improvements may be witlin the reach of the most economical, they will con- tinue tie same moderate charges.

PART THE FIRST treats of the anatomy and physio- logy of the re-productive organs, and is illustrated by Six Coloured Engravings. PART THE SECOND treats OF the consequences re- sulting from excessive indulgence, and their lamentable effects on the system, producing mental and bodily- weakness, nervous excitement, and generative incapacity. It is particularly addressed to those who are prevented in consequence from entering into the marriage state, and points out the sure means of perfect and secret restoration to manhood. It is illustrated by Three Explanatory Engiaviugs. PART THE THIRD treats of the diseases resulting from infection, either in the primary or secondary form, and contains explicit directions for their treatment. The consequences of early neglect or of mistreatment, and of the abuse of mercury, in entailing broken health, and a miserable existence, are also clearly pointed out. This section is illustrated by Seventeen Coloured Engravings. PART THE FOURTH treats of Perry's Preventative Lotion, by the use of which the dangers of infection are obviated. Its action is simple but sure it combines with the virus chemically, and destroys its power on the system. PART THE FIFTH is devoted to the consideration of marriage, and its duties. The reason of physical dis- qualifications, and the causes of unproductive unions, are also considered, and the whole subject critically and I philosophically inquired into. The CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM is ex- pressly employed to renovate the impaired powers of life, when exhausted by the influence exerted by solitary indulgence on the system. Its action is purely balsamic its power in reinvigorating the frame in all cases of nervous debility has been demonstrated by its unvarying success in thousands of cases.

A CATHOLIC CLERGYMAN AND HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.— A poor person who had been in a very declining state of health for a considerable time, and had tried all the doctors in his neighbourhood, without deriving the least benefit, has been restored to perfect health in a few weeks by Holloway's celebrated Pills, which were pre- sented to the then apparently dying man by a distin- guished member of the Catholic Church. John Thomp- son, Esq., the proprietor of the Armagh Guardian, can I attest to the truth of this, as well as other remarkable cures, that have been effected in that part of Ireland, by j the uge of this iuvaUuhle medicine.

Unquestionably this is a most extraordinary and skilful work, and ought to be extensively circulated for it is quite evident that there are peculiar habits acquired at public schools and private seminaries, which are totally unknown and concealed from the conductors of those establishments, and which cannot be too strongly reprobated and condemned. The Engravings that ac- company the work are clear and explanatory; and being written by a dulv qualified medical practitioner, will doubtless be the means of saving many a youth, as well as those of maturer age, from the various evil conse- quences resulting from early indiscretions."—Magnet. This work has the advantage over other treatises on the same subject, in beiiig the production of a regularly educated and duly qualified member of the medical pro- fession, who has had very great experience in the treat- ment of a class of infirmities resulting from secret habits and excesses, which, for their treatment, the utmost secrecy, confidence, and skill, is so essentially requisite." -London Journal.

I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE.
I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. Her royal highness the Duchess of Kent returned from the Continent on Wednesday. Prince Waldemar of Prussia left London for Germany on Thursday. The Duke and Duchess of Beaufort and the Ladies Somerset, have left Beaufort-house on a continental tour. Their graces go direct to Germany, and thence to Italy, for the winter. The Marquis of Anglesey transmitted to Lieutenant Munro a cheque for one hundred guineas immediately after his trial. The Marquis of Bute has given, in the most liberal manner, two acres of valuable land, near the town of Cardiff, for a burial-ground for the parishes of St. John and St. Mary, and has also undertaken, at his sole expense, to drain and enclose it, and to build a Burial Chapel, which, altogether, will cost the noble marquis at least £ 1500. The Lords of the Treasury have thought fit to cancel the Government contract with the Messrs. Cowan of Edinburgh, so far as the new member for that city is concerned, andv Mr. Cowan is now legally entitled to take his seat, jtfthough the Treasury, with precedents before them, might have chosen to adhere to the letter of the bond. The Lord Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol has confirmed 2613 persons in the eastern part of his diocese. The late Dr. Griffiths, Roman Catholic Bishop of London, was originally a member of the Protestant Church. Lieutenant Walter Scott Lockhart, of the 16th Light Dragoons, the heir of Abbotsford, has been permitted to pssume the name of Scott, in addition to that of Lockhart. The Gazette of Tuesday contains an official notice of the blockade of the coast of Albania by the Sublime Porte. It has been determined to establish a Railway Club in London. There is not a single French merchant ship which measures 700 tons. The Welsh have a saying that if a woman was as quick with her feet as her tongue, she would catch lightning enough to kindle the tire in the morning. A commission to inquire into the special means requisite for the sanitary improvement of the metro- polis is issued, consisting of Lord R. Grosvenor, Mr. Chadwick, Dr. S. Smith, Professor Owen, F.L.S., and* Mr. R. L. Jones. ¡ The only two English papers prohibited in France are I the Weekly Dispatch' and Punch.' Diogenes observing an unskilful archer shooting, he went and sat down by the target, declaring it the only place of safety. Mr. H. D. Grady, who had been many years Counsel to the Excise and Customs in Ireland, and had retired on a pension of £ 2000 per annum twenty years ago, died on Wednesday, at his residence in Dublin. Her Majesty having been informed that John Mac- lean, of Inverness, or as he is generally called the Highland Historian," who is 100 years and eight months o!d, was in indigent circumstances, she was graciously pleased to direct a cheque fur £10 to be forwarded to the centenarian. Letters from Strasburgh state that it is impossible to conceive anything more magnificent than the present vintage; it is rich and abundant in the extreme. I Immense quantities of champagne are being exported, especially to the north of Europe. There is a report that the Queen Dowager has pur- chased East Cowes Castle, formerly the property of Mr. Nash, George the Fourth's favourite architect. Mr. G. Burnett, of the firm of Locke, Blackett, and Co. extensive merchants and manufacturers, of Newcas- tle-upon-Tyne, was found dead, with his throat cut, in a field near that town, a few days ago. The razor with which the deed had been committed was firmly grasped in his hand. The deceased possessed a highly cul- | tivated mind, he was skilled in chemistry, And took a leading part in ail the literary apd philosophical pro- ceedings of the district. The late explosion of gas in St. Matthew's Church, Bristol, has resulted in the death of James Bailey, the sexton, who expired on Sunday morning last at the Infirmary. We regret exceedingly to announce the decease of the Lady Jane Pew, wife of the Right Hon. W. Yatei Peel, M.P., tv-ho expired somewhat'suddenly at Bageiiton Hall, the family seat, in Warwickshire. At the Sheffield Sessions, a juryman, who did not wear the usual garb of the Society of Friends, objected to take the oath. On being asked his reason, he re- plied, Because my father w" a Quaker." His objec- tion was allowed. Sir Erskine Perry, now puisne judge at Bombay, will succeed the late Sir David Pollock as Chief- Justice of that presidency. Mr. William Yirdlr-v, of the North Wales circuit will be the new puisne judge at Bombay, in succession to Sir E. Perry.— Morning Chronicle. At a meeting of the Middlesex magistrates on Tues- day, a report was read showin g that according to a new valuation the yearly value of the landed and tenement property of the county was £ 7,754,330. The old valua- tion gave it as £ 6,367,317. Mary Ann Hunt, convicted at the Central Criminal Court of the murder of the poor old lady, Mrs. Stowell, with whom she lodged in Maiylebone, has made a full confession of her guilt, of which, indeed, there could be no doubt. She is enciente, and will not be delivered for four months, till which time the sentence must remain in abeyance. Pius IX., remarks the Birmingham Journal, is not one of those who would (as Boileau has said) lengthen the creed and shorten the decalogue. Rather is he a new Ganganelli, and we might apply to him the name once given to his great predecessor—the "Protestant Pope." Information has been received by the police, that a man of the name of Thompson, secretary to the Leicester L'lan and Discount Society, absconded on Saturday, taking with 111111 upwards of £ 6000, belonging to that and other loan societies. A reward of JEoO is offered for his apprehension.—Globe. The Queen has been pleased to appoint the Right Hon. Lord W rOtleslrv, Professor Robert Willis, l\I .A., ¡ Captain Henry James, R.E., George Rennie, Esq., William Cubitt, Esq., and Eaton Hodgkinson, Esq., to be her Majesty's Commissioners for inquiring into the conditions to be observed by engineers in the application of iron in railway structures.—The Queen has also been pleased to appoint Lieutenant Douglas Gatton, R.E., to be Secretary to the said Commission. Mr. Nicholas Johnson, maltster, of Norfolk-terrace, Hereford, committed suicide last week by hanging him- self with his neckerchief to a hook in his malihouse. He appears to have gone direct from the Royal Oak inn to his malthouse and committed the dreadful act, but from what cause is not stated. He had once before attempted his life. A coroner's jury returned a verdict of tem- porary derangement. A man named Caleb Barker was murdered on Saturday week at Swinton, Yorkshire. He was a warehouseman at the Don Pottery at Marlborough, near the above place, and after drinking two pints of beer at a public house, he was returning home between nine and ten o'clock with some ale in a jug for his wife, when he was attacked and left for dead on the road. It is supposed the murderer or murderers fancied he had his week's wages in his pocket, which was not the case. When discovered he was alive but speechless, and he died soon afterwards. His skull was fractured, and there were marks of blows under one eye and one ear. He was a mild inoffensive man. The Limerick Chronicle' says that a young gentle- man, Mr. Bell, very lately come of age, and hitherto a stranger to the smiles of fortune, will this month lead to the altar the richest heiress in Ireland, Miss Martin. The lady is now in her thirty-third year, and has been for several years known in the literary world. The fortunate youth was seeking a commission in some regiment on foreign service, when Venus kindly changed his destination for the home department; and, ere this month ends, he may travel five-and-twenty miles in a straight line on the lands bestowed on him. In reference to Members of Parliament who have ex- tensive dealings with the firni of John Doe and Richard Roe, and whose parliamentary qualifications (a very common case) are kindly lent to them by some accom- modating friend, a legal correspondent of The Times states that any qualification so lent is attachable for the debts of the ineinbei- usiiiiz it; and that even if he has returned it to his friend, judgment creditors may follow it and make it applicable to the payment of their demands. This hint will, it is said, be acted upon in the case of Mr. Duncombe, and some other hon. members similarly situated. On Wednesday the election of the 16 representative peers for Scotland took place in the picture-gallery of the Palace of Holyrood, in Edinburgh. The attendance of peers was greater than has been the case for some time, there being 31 noble lords present. The calleries presented an unusually gay appearance, and werp crowded in every part. The election was looked forward to with consiuerabe interest, in consequence of its being known that the Earl of Dmidonald (who was recently restored to Mie honours of the Bath) was a candidate. At the conclusion of the proceedings, the following jlPers (among whom it will be seen the noble earl is not included) were declared to be elected ;—-Marquis of Tweeddale; Earls of Morton, Home, Airlie, Leven and Melville, Selkirk, Orkney, and Seafield; Viscount Strathallan; Lords Saltoun, Gray, Sinclair, Elphin- stone, Colville of Culross, Rollo, and Polwarth. The Duke of Argyll was one of the peers who voted for Lord Dundonald. It has been ascertained that several letters addressed from Osborne House to the Queen in Scotland have been opened during their transit. Active steps are in process to discover and punish th* Paul Pry. The Right Hon. Edward Pennefather, late Chief Justice of the Irish Queen's Bench, which office he held during the memorable State trials, expired after a long illness on Monday, at his residence in Fitzwilliam- square, Dublin. By his death, a pension of L3000 per annum reverts to the Crown. An anti-paying-poor- rate league seems to be threat- ened in Ireland, and many of the farmers are said also to have resolved to adopt the anti-paying-rent princple also. As for the repayment of any part of the loan to England, that, if we are to believe all that we hear, would seem to be past praying for." A document, declaring the determination of the ribbon manufacturers of Coventry not to depart from the imperial standard measure of thirty-six inches to the yati, hatf been signed by all the principal ribbon manufacturers in Coventry. A young American clairvoyant, named Davis, has just completed a book, which it is gravely said, he has been engaged in dictating for the last two years, while in the mesmeric sleep. It is entitled The Principles of Nature." The New Yorl, Journal of Cominerce calløatitntiql1 to the astounding fact that in that city one-fifth of the entire population are paupers, supported in part or wholly by public charity. An anonymous donation of E300 has been forwarded under the signature of E. L. to the Secretary of the Church Building Society. A Van Dieman's Land paper says that within two months seventeen men were hanged, at the penal settle- ment of NorfplW Island, on the evidence of their fellow prisoners. The legislature of the state of Maiae, on its affjotirn- ment, after a session of nearly three months, passed a vote of thanks to the newspaper reporters, for their able and impartial reports. Franzen, one of the best poets of Sweden, died some- what suddenly on the 16th ult. The romance of Jeanie Deans" has again been em- bodied in fact. Three female relations of the Burghead fishermen implicated in the late food riots, travelled to Ardverikie with the view of petitioning her Majesty to commute the rather harsh sentence of transportation and imprisonment passed on them. But in Earl Grey the simple fishwomen found no Duke of Argyle, as they were rather unsentimentally told by his lordship to go home, and send a written petition by the post. It is stated by a correspondent of the Preston Guardian, that the inns and lodging-houses of Amble- side were so crowded last week, that the Lord Bishop of Lincoln was reduced to the necessity of sleeping on the floor! Mr. Hudson, M.P., last week presided over the Whitby Agricultural Society's annual dinner, and in the course of the evening stated that he had pur- chased landed property in the country to the amount of £ 700,000. So great is the military enthusiasm felt at Rome since the Austrian Government has assumed a menacing attitude towards the Pope, that many of the priests and monks are learning the use of arms, and it is expected that a battalion of these members of the church militant will soon be organized. The members of the British and Foreign Institute, lately dissolved, have contributed E700 towards a tes- timonial to Mr. Buckingham. The American papers announce the death of Mr. Amos Phelps, the eminent anti-slavery advocate. He died at Roxbury, on the 20th of July, in the forty-third year of his age. The potato crop, notwithstanding the discouraging rumours that have been been afioat respecting it, is still peifectly safe in this locality. Excellent potatoes, both in size and quality, have daily been sold in our market, at prices varying from 5d. to 8d. per stone.—Ballyshannon Herald. A county Clare gentleman, extensively engaged in agricultural pursuits, on receiving at our market, on Saturday, only Is. 21d. a stone for wheat, declared that his wheat cleared him this season E20 an acre, in con- sequence of the great produce. All descriptions of corn in our vicinity arc 25 per cent. more abundant.—Lime- rick Chr oniric. One day last week, while a train on the Bristol and Birmingham Railway was passing over the viaduct at Chosen llill, near Gloucester, some burning coals fell from the engine; and a labourer, named Barnard, kneeled down for the purpose of lighting his pipe, but before he could rise another train came up, knocked him down, and Jcilled him on the spot. Henry James Prescott, Esq., as was last week announ- ced. would prohably be the case, has been elected Deputy Governor of the Bank of England for the remainder of the year. During the proceedings it was intimated that in consequence of the large profits realized by the Bank, through raising the rate of discounts, some of the pro- prietors intend at the next general meeting to demand a borrus of one half, or one per cent. on the capital stock, in addition to the usual dividend declared half- yearly. In the Court of Bankruptcy, before Mr. Commissioner Fane, the matter of Horace W. Mcteyatd came on for hearing. The insolvent applied for his discharge and interim order. It appeared by the schedule that there were no less than 70 creditors, being principally railway companies and solicitors. His debts and liabilities I amount to E76,521 15s. The assets amounted to £1423 stated to be due by solicitors to railway schemes. No opposition was offered, and the interim order and dis- charge were granted. Mr. William Chambers is endeavouring to get up a movement in Edinburgh against the government scheme of education, in so far as it does not propose to abolish tests for parochial schools. The Legislative Council of New South Wales has voted £ a00 per month out of the colonial revenues towards carrying out steam communication between Australia, India, and England. The Morning Post states that some persons in Dublin doubt O'Connell's being deid he is only resting in a snug Italian retreat! Some similar thing was said and believed for many years, by the old soldiers espe- cially, of Napoleon. A college, to be named, by royal permission, Queen's College, London," in conjunction with the Governesses Benevolent Institution, Sas been formed, with a view to place female education on the same basis as that of endowed schools and universities for the male sex. Its chief purpose consists in the examination of, and granting diplomas and certificates of qualification to governesses, to enable them to produce satisfactory evidence of their merits, and in affording the less competent, an adequate and orderly preparation for their work. Three footmen (one in the service of Miss Burdett |i Coutts) had a narrow escape last week from drowning, while bathing at the Hoe, Plymouth. A man named Thomas Lowe has been committed for trial at Manchester, for stealing a will from the office of Mr. Thomas, a solicitor. A man named Hubert, an inhabitant of the arrottr dissement of Neufchatel, in Normandy, has jlst b tried at the Court of Assizes of Rouen, for having he apart, in a state of complete isolation, filth, and want of food his brother-in-law, named Boutterolles, a man of rather weak intellect. The motive of this sequestration was a desire on the part of Hubert to appropriate to his own use a life-interest of 450 fr. belonging to Boutte- rolles. Being found guilty, but with extenuating cir- cumstances, Hubert was sentenced to five years' imprisonment. We deeply regret to learn that the myrmidons of the law forcibly took possession of the princely seat of a noble duke, in a county long noted for the political influ- ence he exercised, on Tuesday last, and it is feared that the urgency of the demand made on his grace will even- tually lead to the dispersion of the finest collections of art and rertu possessed by a private individual in this country.—Morning Ch)-oiticle.-LA rumour has been current that this paragraph referred to a noble duke who is officially connected with this city. We are assured that such is not the case, and that the various winter orders for the supply of Badminton-house have been received by his grace's tradesmen in this city.— Gloucester Journal.] The Cork Reporter, of Tuesday, contains the follow- ing;—" Yesterday a diabolical attempt was made by a soldier of the 67th regiment to shoot Adjutant Graham, of that regiment, while passing from one part of the Barrack-square to another. It appears that the delin- quent, who is a native of Lancashire, saw the adj^ant passing across the square, when he deliberately w. to his barrack-room, where he loaded his musket and pro- ceeded to the lobby window, from which he took aim at the adjutant and fired. The ball struck the ground within a yard of where the officer stood, and then took an oblique direction and passed through the window of the apartment of Lieutenant Sinnott, adjutant of the 47th, in whose bed it lodged. This ofifcer's daughters had a very narrow escape of their lives, as all of them were assembled in the room through the window of which the ball entered. After committing the deed the soldier was immediately taken into custody, and on his cartouch-box being searched, one cartridge was found missing. Adjutant Graham rose from a subordinate rank in the guards, and, from his knowledge of military tactics and general propriety of conduct while in the service, lie has obtained the rank of lieutenant and adjutant of his present corps, which is composed of almost all recruits, the delinquent having been only nine months in the service. The atfair is to undergo an immediate investigation." BON MOT.-A country surgeon, who was bald, was on a visit at a friend's house, whose servant wore a wig. After bantering him a considerable time, the doctor said, You see how bald I am, and yet I don't wear a wig." To which the servant, looking steadfastly at the doctor, replied, True, sir, but an empty barn requires no thatch." MR. VILLIERS AND THE REPRESENTATION OF WOLVERIUMPTON.-At the request of the Honourable Mr. Villiers, the constituency of Wolverhampton met a day or two ago to consider whether he should remain their member or sit for Sooth Lancashire, he having ex- pressed himself willing to abide by their decision. The meeting, which was numerously attended, was presided over by E. B. Dinmack, Esq., and a resolution wao passed, on the motion of the Rev. S. Hunter, expressing the opinion of the electors that Mr. Villiers should remain their representative. In these circumstances a new election for Seuth Lancashire becomes inevitable. LORD MORPETH AT SHEFFIELD.-The first stone of the Sheffield Athenaeum and Mechanics' Institution waa- laid on Wednesday last, by the Earl of Arundel and Surrey, M.P., eldest son of the Duke of Norfolk. The event was celebrated in the evening by a grand soiree at the Music-hall. Amongst the guests was Lord Morpeth, from whose address we extract the following beautiful ap- plication and explanation of an ancient fable ;—" Those of you," said his lordship, who have the opportunity of consulting the old legends and classical mythology are l-aware that among the fancied deities with which they peopled the world, one more especially was regarded as the god of labour and of handicraft, Vulcan by name, who was always represented as employed in huge smi- thies and workshops, hammering at heavy anvils, blowing huge bellows, heating vast furnaces, and begrimed with soot and dirt. Well, ladies and gentlemen, for this hard working and swarthy looking divinity they wished to pick out a wife. (Loud laughter.) And they did not select for him a mere drab, a person taken from the scullery or kitchen dresser, but they chose for him Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. Now, ladies and gentlemen, pick out for me the moral of this tale for I believe that nothing ever was invented-certainly nothing by the polished and brilliant imagination of the Grecian intellect- which has not its meaning and its moral. I have no doubt that all the legends of our own country-that the one even of your own neighbourhood, the Dragon of Wantley itself, has some appropriate allegory and meaning, if we only knew how to find them t out. But what is the special meaning of the marriage of Vulcan with Venus-of the hard-working artificer with the laughter-loving queen-of labour with beauty? What is it, ladies and gentlemen, but this, that even in a busy hive of industry and toil like this, even here, upon a spot which is, in many respects, no inapt repre- sentator of the fabled workshop of Vulcan-even here, amid the clang of anvils, the noise of furnaces, and the sputtering of forges-even here, amid stunning sounds and sooty blackness, the mind, the untrammelled mind, may go forth, may pierce the dun atmosphere which is poised around us, may wing its way to the freer air and purer light which are beyond, and may ally itself with. all that is most fair, genial, and lovely in creation.. (Applause.) So, gentlemen, I say, your labour, your downright hard, swarthy labour may make itself the- companion, the helpmate, and the husband of beauty, of physical beauty; I dare say, and have reason to believe, from the inspection which I am able even now to com- mand, and I have no doubt a more intimate acquaint- ance with your wives, sisters, and daughters would, enable me to prove that I was not wrong in my illustra- tion. But above this beauty, I say your labour may ally itself with intellectual beauty-the beauty connected with the play of fancy, with the achievements of art, and with the creations of genius beauty, such as paint- ing fixes upon the glowing canvass; such as the sculp- tor embodies in the breathing marble; such as architec- ture developes in the stately and harmonious proportions j, such as music clothes with the enchantment of sound. It is to the perception and cultivation of the beautiful in these departments that your schools of design, your concerts, and many of the lectures which you have from able and gifted men, may be made most agreeably sub- servient and I strongly advise you, and I advise the members of the Mechanics' Institution, and I strongly advise its well-wishers and promoters, to show a dis- criminating and generous support of these tasteful and humanizing pursuits." His lordship also alluded to the subscription for the purchase of Shakspeare's house. In pursuit of such an object as this," said he, permit me to say that I do not see why the members of flje Sheffield Mechanics' Institution, and of every mechanics' Institution in the country, should not resolve to give some little token-sixpence or a shilling per head-to mark their sense of the greatest genius which ever adorned English literature." ESCAPE OF FOUR PRISONERS FROM MONMOUTH GAOT.—Monmouth, Sept. 8.-This morning, a despe- rate attempt was made by four prisoners to escape from our gaol. The names of the prisoners were Mayow, Albert, Hayes, and Murphy. The three first-named were convicted at the Monmouth Assizes of extensive bur- glaries at Usk, and were sentenced to long periods of transportation. Murphy was also under sentence of transportation. He had been convicted ol a burglary, with violence and sentence of death was recorded against liim,—which was, however, commuted to twenty years' transportation. Mayow would appear to have been the ringleader in the matter. He had broken one of the legs from the iron bedstead on which he slept, with which he worked out the panel of the door of his cell. In order to prevent the light from appearing through the aperture which he had made, he hung his bedclothes in front of it. He then wrenched off the locks from the doors of the other prisoners' cells, and they secreted themselves in a vacant cell, and awaited the appearance of the turnkeys. At about a quarter to six o'clock, a turnkey, named Alpass, whose duty it was to inspect the prisoners in the morning, having ob- tained the keys from the governor, (Mr. Barrett,) entered the cell of a prisoner. He had scarcely unlocked the door, when Mayow rushed from his hiding place, and struck him a deadly blow on the side of the head, which knocked him, senseless and bleeding to the ground Mayow then secured the keys, and locked Alpass in with the prisoner, telling the latter to finish him, He then gave the signal to the other prisoners whom he had released and they, following him, escaped to the- lobby, near the front. Here they waited until the turnkey (Bradshaw) came to open the door. They were armed with the large padlocks and ponderous keys, and they rushed upon him, and struck him several violent blows, from which he bled profusely. They then un- locked the outer door, and escaped. They threw the keys away, and ran towards Buckholt-wood. By this time, the first turnkey who was attacked had sufficiently recovered to alarm the governor, and help was sent for into the town. A large body of the inhabitants sallied fourth and scoured the country in the direction the prisoners were seen to take, and after a long and difficult chase through thicket and jungle, they were all re-taken before eleven o'clock, anci again safe lodged in the gaol On the road to the gaol, they confessed to the parties who secured them, that it was their inten- tion to rob several houses in the neighbourhood. The injuries which the turnkeys have received are very great, but they are sufficiently well to attend to their duties. The cell in which the first attack was made presents a fearful appearance, covered as it is with blood; and the same may be said of the court-yard where Bradshaw was knocked down. The magistrates met at the gaol at an early hour, to make enquiries into the matter; but it is not known whether the prisoners will be tried for the attempt on the lives of the turnkeys. EMIGRATION OF LIBERATED CONVICTS.-On Satur- day the new regulations relative to the removal to Aus- tralia of young prisoners who have completed their term of confinement in this country, were for the first time carried into effect, between 70 and 80 male prisoners being conveyed from the Milbank prison to Woolwich. They will there be joined by another batch from the Model prison, and will be shipped for Australia, calling at Cork on the way for more. They will all be provided witti11 free tickets," and on their arrival in Australia I win be free, like other settlers and eiriigrants.Ilot-ttiiiq Chronicle. FATAL ACCIDENT AT CRICKET.—An inquest before T. Wakley, Esq., M P., and a highly-respectable jury, was held at the Swan Inn, Stanwell, on Tuesday last, on the hody of Charles Morse, 13 years of age, who met with his death by a blow from a cricket-ball on Sunday morning last while playing with two other boys. Ver- dict, Accidental.death by a blow from a cricket-ball." INTENTIONS OF A MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT.—Our old friend Feargus O'Connor has announced his inten- tion not to accept any place under government, nor receive any pension, or emolument of any description whatever. This reminds us of our friend Briefless, who, on the last change of ministry, plainly intimated that he did not intend to take the great seal, and that he hoped no delicacy towards him would prevent the offer of the attorney-generalship to Sir John Jervis. Feargus further announces that on the charter becoming the law of the land, he shall follow the example of that respect- able person to whom we were so much indebted in our school-boy days for assistance in our themes—we mean Cinciunalus-and return to his plough. We think Feargus may as well sell his plough at once, for he has cut off all hope of a renewal of his acquaintance with it, by the remote contingency he has determined upon. The five points will, of course, be brought before the House of Commons once or twice a week during the session. We don't exactly know what the five points are, but the comma, the semicolon, the colon, the period, and note of exclamation, used to be the five points which, in our scholastic experience, we became acquainted with. If we were prime minister, we would allow Feargus to carry the fourth point at once, and thus supersede the necessity of considering any of the others.-Punch.
