The person alluded to is a young man named Haylock, of Ashdon, near this place, whose entire head of hair came off by some unaccounta- ble means. He purchased of me several different popu- lar preparations, which he regularly and faithfully used but without effecting the least apparent change. At last I advised him to try a bottle of your Macassar Oil; and, on Friday last, he communicated to me the pleasing in- telligence of the re-appearance of a thick head of hair. You can make what use you please of this, and refer inquirers to Yours respectfully, J. SERJEANT, Bookseller, &c.

The Triumphs of this Medicine in conquering Disease are truly wonderful. There is scarcely a town, hamlet, or village in the United Kindom, in which there are not families who bear willing testimony to the surprising efficacy of WORSDELL'S VEGETABLE RESTORA- TIVE PILLS, prepared by John Kaye, Esq., of Dalton Hall, near Huddersfield. Nothing can be more adapted to Family use than these Pills. Being warranted free from Mercurial, Antimonial, or other Mineral substance, they may be taken with perfect safety, alike by the Infant .1?i the Adult. Their peculiar excellence consists in their Blood-purifying effects. When taken into the sys- tem, they remove obstructions, and cause the fluids to flow in their natural order. They free the stomach from crudities and vitiated secretions, and, consequently, aid digestion, and relieve the Head from oppressiveness. Perfectly assimilating with that vital principle, the Blood, a war of extirmination is commenced against everything destructive to health; hence the wonderful cures, hundreds of which have been publicly recorded of Boils, Sores, Ulcers, Scurvy, Scrofula, and all Cu- taneous Diseases. And, at the same time that this Me- dicine operates thus externally, a most important work is accomplished internally. The blood being charged with a health-giving power, the Liver immediately, expe- riences its influence, and, all acrimonious bile being carried out of the system, it is enabled to perform all its functions with tone and energy..Indigestion, Flatu- lency, Palpitations of the Heart, Nervous Irritation, and all other Symptoms arisins..from the irregular action of the system, are removed in an -incredibly; short space of, time. Let Kaye's Allorsdeire Pills be But fairly tried, and it will be acknowledged that it is not possible ade- quately to speak of their great efficacy. Thousands upon thousands who had long suffered acutely, and in number less instances given up as incurable, have -been restored to that greatest of all blessings, sound health A list recently issued contains about Three Hundred of the most remarkable Testimonials ever published. The Proprietor wishes it to be particularly borne in mind, that while the adult members of Families will find the use of these Pills supersede the necessity of calling in a Medical Adviser, and operate as Curatives, they are also invaluable as Preventatives of those dis eases to which Children are subject. One or two of these Pills according to the age of the child), adminis- tered in a little jam or preserve, will be found effectual in suppressing Fever, in clearing the Lungs, and conse- quently removing Cough; in aiding Digestion, and in imparting Vigour and Activity to the whole constitution CAUTION. To prevent fraud, the Honourable the Commissioners of Stamps have ordered the words WORSDELL'S PILLS, by JOHN KAYE," to be engraved on the Government Stamp; and as further protection, Mr. Kaye's arms, and a fac-simile of his sig- nature, are printed on the Directions wrapped round each box, and to imitate which is felony. Sold in Boxes, at Is. lid., 2s. 9d., and 4s 6d. each. Agent for Carmarthen, J. T. Jones, Blue-street; Llanelly, Mrs. E.

IT is MARRIAGE that invests MAN with his highest dignities. It gives him importance as a member of the State extends his influence in the social scale, and elevates him to a responsible position as the head of a family. How is it, then, to be accounted for that mar- riage is so frequently productive of unhappiness ? What is it that palls the conjugal cheek with wretchedness and makes the eye sink in humiliation so often, when the amiable qualities of a partner and the comforts of inde- pendence seem sufficient to ensure complete felicity ? These are questions only to be answered by the physician and the parties themselves. The sad realities of life are seldom apparent, and a painful mystery envelopes the most hopeless condition of misery to which a human creature can be reduced; consequently the sufferer lingers on to the grave, while a smiling world views those sufferings with unsatisfied curiosity, or remains alto- gether ignorant even of their existence. And why is this ? It is the effects of shame, of terror, and despair emanating from a knowledge of the existence of physical disqualiifcations, produced in most instances by fatal ex- cesses, of which, and of their cure, a lucid and invaluable exponent is now offered to the public; and the unhappy may assure themselves of consolation and relief by con- sulting Dr. La'Mert's work, entitled SELF-PRESERYA- TION, which may be had in English, French, German, or Spanish, in a scaled envelope, illustrated with forty coloured engravings, price 2s. 6d. or pofct-free from the adthor for forty-two stamps.

IMANCHESTER UNITY OF ODD FELLOWS.—…
MANCHESTER UNITY OF ODD FELLOWS.— I POOLE DISTRICT CELEBRATION. On Tuesday last, the town of Poole, in Dorsetshire, from an early hour, presented a very lively appearance, to do honour to the gathering of Odd-Fellows, which took place on that day. The members of the society attended divine service in St. James's Church. The prayers were impressively read by the Rev. R. O. Wilson, incumbent of St. Paul's, and a most appro- priate sermon was preached by the Hon. and Rev. Sir Erasmus Williams, Bart., a brother of the order, who selected his text from Acts xxvii. v. 22. "But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest; for as con- cerning this sect, we know that everywhere it is spoken against." The rev. gentleman ably refuted the charges made against the Society, and spoke in praise of the benevolence induced by the Widow and Orphans' Fund. The dinner took place in the town-hall. The chair was occupied by the Hon. and Rev. Sir Erasmus Williams, Bart., who performed the duties of the office in a more than satisfactory manner. T. Rick- man, Esq., J. W. West., Esq., Mr. W. Western, the C. S., of the Society; and Mr. J. Notting, G.M. Alfred Crabb, Esq., M.D., acted as vice-chairman. The Poole Brass Band was in attendance outside the principal entrance to the hall, and enlivened the com- pany with their strains after each toast. On the health of the Queen being drank God save the Queen" was sung by the whole company. The toast of Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, and the rest of the Royal Family" was received with the utmost enthusiasm, The Queen Dowager," the benefi- cent patroness of the Widow and Orphans' Fund and nearly every other charity throughout the land, was received with both Odd Fellows' and Musical honours. The Bishop and Clergy of the Diocese." The Chairman in proposing the toast regretted that none of the clergy of the district were present, the age of Mr. Joliffe, the incumbent of Saint James, was sufficient excuse for his absence; his curate was from home, at some distance; another clergyman had to attend a funeral that evening, still he thought some others might have attended. He would couple with the toast the name of the Rev. P. W. Jolliffe, with thanks to him for the use of his church and pulpit on that day. The toast of the "Army and Navy" came next. fol- lowed by the Chairman, who in proposing the toast of" the Directors of the Mother Lodge at Manchester," said, he trusted the order would soon be under the protection of the laws of the land,«nd enabled to bring to justice any offender against their law. They must regard with gratitude the originators of the order thirty years ago, at Manchester, one of whom was a stone-mason, from London. They had noble minds, and by their exertions a vast amount of good had been effected, and in the short space of time that had elapsed lodges had spread throughout England; there were many in America, Australia, the Hanse Towns, and even in France, and they bid fair to spread all over the world. These originators had left noble successors who were firm advocates of the cause, and worthy of every support from the officers of the various districts and lodges throughout the kingdom. It was a serious task for a few persons to enforce compliance with the laws of the order in the various lodges. If he heard any man speak against the society he always endeavoured to get them to read the law, doubting not but their opinions would thereafter be changed. It was the duty of all men to promote to the utmost of their power and ability, honesty, charity, and goodness. The carrying out and amending the rules of the society, to promote these virtues as far as possible, formed the principal duties of the Directors. He urged all to put their shoulders to the wheel to advance the interests of the society, and thereby promote good (evil it could not be) throughout the land. A report had been circulated by the chartists to endeavour to induce Odd Fellows to draw their money in gold from the Banks or wherever it was invested for the purpose of distressing the go- vernment. The Directors as soon as this report reached them issued a circular stating that any lodge guilty of such a crime would be immediately suspended. Not one lodge did so. Again, in South Wales at the time of the Rebecca Riots, the lodges advertised in the pa- pers their objections to Rebeccaism, and tendered their services to the government to suppress the movement. The Honorable chairman then related other circum- stances to show the loyalty of the order, and asked whether after these exhibitions of loyalty the govern- ment had any reason to suspect their attachment to the national institutions. They were seeking the protection of the laws of the land and invited an inspection of ttae rules of the order. They could not be too grateful to Lord Beaumont for having brought their claims so pro- minently before the House of Lords. He (the chair- man) had stated to the Government his willingness to depose on oath that the secrets of the order could not in any conceivable manner be distorted against the government or institutions of this country, but were purely to protect the funds of the society from fraud. He supported the society with hfs whole heart, and this would not be the case were he not convinced that it was the instrument of promoting the benefit of his fellow countrymen and not only so, but of all mankind. j The Chairman before resuming his seat read letters received from Sir J. J. Guest, Bart., M.P., Sir G. R. Philipps, Bart., M.P., (enclosing a donation of two guineas), G. R. Robinson, Esq., M.P., E. J. Hutchins, Esq., and other gentlemen qffering excuses for not attending the meeting. Tom Rickman, Esq., returned thanks for the Cor- poration of Poole," and proposed the health of the Chair- man, the Hon. and Rev. Sir Erasmus Williams, Bart. The Chairman in reply said that at the conclusion of the morning service he felt too fatigued to both walk in the procession and attend to preside at the dinner, being obliged to choose but one, he selected the latter, considering it would be most agreeable to them. He was a firm friend of Odd Fellowship, and having pro- mised to attend, not even rain or snow should have kept him away. He had alluded to persons sending ex- cuses, lie-also thought that the leading tradesmen of the town would have done honour to themselves equally with the society by attending the festival. He thought there were few in the order higher in station than himself, and if it was no disgrace to him to meet such a body of his fellow countrymen as was then before him, it could not be to them. As a clergyman it would be impossible for him to enter the pulpit and advocate a society, unless he was satisfied it was benevolent and loyal. He was a magistrate for four counties and in each he advocated the cause of Odd Fellowship, and was willing to do so in any part of the kingdom. It Was in a great measure owing to the Odd Fellows that the disturbances in the north and midland districts had been so easily checked. They were all loyal subjects, and ever ready to support the laws of the realm. In allusion to the great contrast between liberty in Eng- land aud France, the honourable gentleman gave a hu- morous description of the passport system in the latter country. The French Equality also he was opposed to which was the equality of the lazy and dissolute dipping their hands into and taking to themselves the savings of the industrious. French Fraternity was not the fraternity of Odd Fellowship. In that country they showed their fraternity by driving all the English arti- zans from the land and despoiling them of their goods and whatever they possessed. The English had not, and he hoped would not follow that example. Another specimen of thejr fraternity was fighting and cutting each others' throats without knowing what for. He rejoiced to say the fraternity of Odd Fellowship was very different from this. Between Poole and Hunger- ford, there was scarcely a town but he had attended Odd Fellows' meetings in, and in all he had received the greatest kindness, which amply remunerated him for his attendance. Indeed at that meeting he was more than repaid by seeing so much happiness, cheerfulness, charity, and brotherly kindness exhibited around him. lie hoped that he had in some measure contributed to the comfort and enjoyment of the company. He would next direct attention to the medal then on his breast, which had been presented to him by the members uf the Good Samaritan, Philanthropic, and Good Intent Lodges of the Poole District, and for which he again returned them his most sincere thanks, and assured them that it must have been a very pressing circumstance had he been prevented that day from attending their celebration. The medal, together with a gold snuff box presented him by the Devizes brethren should be handed down as heir looms in his family and be held out as inducements to his children to give their support to a society which had so much honoured their father. He considered them as retaining fees for the whole order, and would give it his services at all times when the opportunity was allowed him and his health and strength permitted. The noble principles of the order made him its firm advocate, and he could not resist doing everything in his power to promote its interests. He hoped that Odd Fellowship would speedily spread its benefits over every country under heaven. In conclusion he proposed success to the Good Samaritan, Philanthropic and Good Intent Lodges of the Poole District, with the health of the officers and brethren of those lodges, none of whom lie hoped were Chartists. Several other toasts having been drank, Dr. Crabb proposed a vote of thanks to the Honourable and Rev. Sir Erasmus Williams, for the arduous duties he had performed that day. This was seconded by Mr. Western and carried with acclamation. Sir E. Williams acknow- ledged the compliment and left the Hall, followed by all present. The whole of the day's proceedings passed off most satisfactorily and created a favorable impression of Odd Fellowship in the minds of all unprej udiced persons. PABLIAMENTARY MOTION.—Mr. to move for a return of all the useless, idle, impertinent, and ridiculous speeches made during the present session of parliament, with the names of the speakers affixed." Should this return he granted, it is supposed that the document will be the most voluminous upon record.— ,.Ytiietit ?i-ill be the aiost roluiiiin?)u,- t,t p t)n i-ecor d
INDIA AND CHINA.,
INDIA AND CHINA. We (The Times) have received by express from Mar- seilles our advices from India in wticipation of the overland mail of the 1st of July fiam Calcutta. Our advices from Bombay were by dank to Madras. The dates thus received are from CateutUi and Bombay to the 1st of July, and Madras to the 9th of July. Our military position in the Punjaub semis well secured. There is no news from the north-west of India of any prominent importance. The intelligence from Moultan, as regards the operations of the district officers in the field continues to be of the most satisfactory character. The force under Lieutenant Edwarde* amounts by these advices to nearly 6,000 men, Mahomedans. The body is secure along the line of the Indus, and has managed to gain possession of all the means of passage in that part of the stream. It is said that the Bunnoo Sikhs continue to join the standard of the Dewan, but that the Patans and Belooohees stand aloof; while, on the other hand, Colonel Cortlandt's district force had been much strengthened by Belooch enlistments, and Lieu- tenant Edwards counted a strong body of Patans. The forces of the Rajah of Bhawalpoor had already crossed the GharreV river into the insurgent territory, but, not taking proper precautions, in their eagerness for plunder, one of their parties had met a stronger body of the enemy and was cut off. This disaster spread alarm at first, from conflicting rumours whiok got into circula- tion, but happily did not entail %of mischief, and subsequent accounts announce the capture of four small towns on the western bank of the 1.4-er. Ftom further steps which had been taken by our able resident at Lahore, in the despatch of an energetic officer, Lieu- tenant Lake, to assist with his counsel the Bhawalpoor troops, there was every reason to hope that the force would safely hold its ground, and even at an early day do good service in an advance. There seemed every probability such an advance would be made, should fur- ther circumstances secure the probabilities of success for a movement by the British district officers on the centre of insurrection. The captive governor of Deera, Ghuzee Khan, and another man of note on the side of the insurgents, had been executed. The Dewan, on hearing this news, is said to have sent 100 rupees to each of their widows; and, apparently taking a hint of the fate that might await himself, ordered a funeral pile to be prepared for his family, to be used in the event of his fall; evidently not more inclined, by these circumstances, to sell his life cheap. No less than 600 followers of the insurgent Gooroo, Maharaj, Singh, who took arms in the Punjaub, had surrendered, and, by late accounts, were prisoners at Shung. The property and arms of the fanatic Gooroo had been secured, and he himself is reported to have been drowned. Sir Lawrence Peel, Chief Justice in Bengal, has sus- pended Mr. Grant from his office of Master in Equity in the Supreme Court at Calcutta, in consequence of that functionary having been implicated in the transactions of the Union Bank as one of its directors. Some disturbances which had broken out among the Bheels in the.Mye Counta district of Guzerat-a still unsettled portion of Western India—had been promptly suppressed by the energy of the Political Agent, Captain Wallace, who gave orders for the instant march to the scene of riot of a sufficient body of troops.

COLOGNE CATHEDRAL ANNIVERSARY.—Grand pro- cessions and festivities in celebration of the 600th anniversary of the foundation of Cologne Cathedral took place in that city on the 13th. The King of Prussia, the Archduke John, and other potentates were present. The King and the vicar-general were pre- sented with complimentary addresses. The great attraction of the day was the grand procession from the Neumarkt to the cathedral. Between two and three, the procession, after having stopped at the archbishop's palace, in order to invite him by deputation to join it, moved through the streets in the following order:- The mounted band of the civic guard infantry band of ditto; the choirs of the three gymnasia and of the burgher school; the chief singing club a number of other singing societies the male and female orphan schools; a second band of the civic guard the various trades employed in the cathedral; the general banner of the cathedral clubs; the directors of the central building-fund club; the Bishops of Ermeland, Hildesheim Mayence, Munster, Osnaburgh, Ruremonde, Spires, and Treves, and the Archbishop of Cologne, all in pontificalibas, and attended by a numerous body of clergymen. Next, came the members of the central cathedral club the members of the other clubs two more bands of music, and a mounted detachment of the civic guard. An immense crowd was assembled in the streets in the line of prOcessipn, and the windows of the houses (all of which were gaily bedecked with banners, flowers, or branches of trees), were filled with ladies. The greatest order and decbruu* prevailed. As soon as the procession, with itsr 4vost of tTanntrs, reacnen the Klosterplatz, opposite the great entrance of the cathe- dral, the northern and southern doors of that editice were thrown open to the public, and several thousands immediately entered, but all the good places had been I reserved for those who were fortunate enough to obtain I tickets. Detachments of the civic guard were stationed all round the choir, and a portion of the southern nave. The Vicar of the Empire, who had been conducted by the procession, from the house of the provost of the cathedral, entered that edifice by the door between the tower already standing, and the foundation of the second one, which, in all probability, will not be finished for the next thirty years. On the following day there were grand banquets given by the King of Prussia and others. The cathedral and all the bridges were splendidly illuminated. NEW POWERS TO COUNTY COURTS.-It is proposed by a bill, which has already passed the House of Lords, and was on Thursday printed by order of the House of Commons, entitled Charity Trust Regulation," to give new powers to the County Courts in respect to the ad. ministration of charitable trusts, the incomes of which do not exceed E30 a-year. It is declared by the pream- ble to be expedient to provide means by which directions for the administration of charities of small amount may be obtained with little expense and delay, and otherwise to amend the law concerning the administration of cha- ritable trusts. There are thirty-two clauses in the bill, pointing out the new duties to be conferred on judges of the County Courts. The Lord Chancellor may make orders for regulating the proceedings of courts under the intended new law. EXTRAORDINARY CASE.—A few weeks ago, when the 4th Royal Irish Dragoon Guards were stationed at Nottingham Barracks, two of the privates quarrelled, and one bit the other in the finger. The wound fes- tered, and at length the man's whole body became i affected, the bones, denuded of flesh, protruding through the skin. The sufferer lingered uil Monday, when he was relieved by death. A dispatch had been sent to Manchester (where the regiment is now stationed) for witnesses, and with orders for the man who so savagely attacked the deceased to be taken into custody, prepara- tory to an inquest being held on the body. The case has excited great interest in a medical point of view. SELF-GOVERNMENT.—Once on a time, a fire broke out at the end of a long street, and crept up-up-up, eating away the houses as none but such a devouring element would have had the impudence to do. There was a cry of Send for the engines!" But the occupier of the middle house was a great opponent of centralisation, and lie stood on his threshold with a bucket in one hand and a garden squirt in the other, and he excl.iimcd—" Send for the engines! No such thing. All the engines come from the central station, and centralisation is a great mischief. Let every man get his bucket and squirt, and put out the fire for himself. That's self-government." And so he was burnt to death, manfully squirting on to the last mo- ment. Ouce on a time there was a man in a fever, and in his delirium he insisted on having a bottle of port per diem. The doctor said it would finish him; but ids nurse was an advocate for self-government, and she pooh-poohed the doctor, and the patient crept to the cellaret had got his bottle of rough old port, and uncorked it with his trembling hands, and set it to his mouth, and floored it itianfully, and died an hour afterwards and his nurse glorified self-government exceedingly as she tied his chin up. Once on a time Cholera rose from his marsh-bed in the east and stalked westwards, killing his thousands and tens of thousands as he passed along. The feast was spread for him in stagnant ditches and reeking cesspools, and filthy dwellings, and wherever these were, he fared abundantly; but where these were not, he starved. And wise men who saw this, said, Let us not spread the table for Cholera amongst us. Lot us drain, and cleanse, and sweep, and whitewash." But the people who did not see it, grumbled at this, and would not set hand to the work. And eeitain wiseacres stood by [ and said, Nay, we know a spell to keep orT Cholera and they spelled their spell, aud it was to repeat many times over, Self-government, self-government, self- government!" And -Cholera chuckled when he heard the spell, for he knew those wiseacres of old.-Punch. A DEN OF THIEVES.—In Cincinnati a church has been metamorphosed into a watch-house, thus fulfilling the scriptural passage, The house of the Lord shall be turned into a den of thieves." — Boston Chronotype. Rheumatism in its most aggravated forms cannot withstand the disease exterminating power of John Kaye's Pills, -Xr. Kaye.-Sir,-It is from a feeling of gratitude to you, and of duty I owe to the public that I take this opportunity of informing you of my complete recovery from a violent and severe attack of rheumatism and dropsy. I suffered from the above for five months, and ray body was so swollen that I was obliged to fasten my clothes on with pieces of tape. I applied to v;ninu" medical men, but obtained no relief. But finding that many remarkable cures were wrought by your Pi lis, I determined to make a trial of them. The first nigh; I took nine pills, and the same quantity the next morning. On that very day I was relieved of several gallons of water, and by taking a few more doses I was completely cured, both of the rheumatism and dropsy. I wish this statement to be made public, both tor your encourage- ment. and that the public may know the valuable pro- perties of your Vegetable Restorative Pills, and be induced to make trial of them.

I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE.
I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. His royal highness Prince Albert has intimated to the council of the Society of Arts that he will offer a gold medal, to be given at the next distribution of prizes, For the best account of any new and improved ma- chinery or processes employed in the cultivation or pre- paration of sugar in the British colonies, designed to economize labour and increase production." The first of the new decimal coins, a two-shilling piece, in conformity with the plan of the present Master of the Mint, has just been completed. Sir Robert Chester, master of the ceremonies to the Queen and three preceding sovereigns, died on Saturday, at the advanced age of 80. He was succeeded in the spring of last year by the Hon. Sir Edward Cust. In some parts of Yorkshire this week, the Irish har- vest labourers have been driven off by English labourers and their employers threatened. A colliery explosion, in which fifteen lives were lost, is stated tu have taken place at the coal-mines atMorlou, near North Shields. A series of dramatic entertainments is to be given at Windsor Castle, immediately after Christmas, by com- mand of her Majesty. Mr. Charles Kean has received directions to superintend all the arrangements. The most distinguished talent is to be engaged. A row between English and Irish labourers took place it the Plough public-house, St. Alban's, a few nights ago, in which a quiet inoffensive Englishman, named Edward Swaine, was "killed and his 808 dreadfully mal- treated. The party of Irish got their wages the same night and absconded. John Parker, a young man living at Corby, near Gran- tham, has been committed for trial on a charge of mur- dering his father. The man was shot dead in his cottage at a time when his son was near him, while the father's wife was up stairs. Parker's account of the matter is, that the loaded barrel of a gun fell through a hole in his pocket, exploded, and the charge lodged in his father's body. The Dublin Paot announces that it is the intention of Mr. John O'Connell to reside permanently in London, where he will apply himself to the discharge of his duties as a director of the National Bank. The hon. gentleman, it is also stated, means to retire altogether from politics. Transatlantic editors are often amusingly personal, amusing to those whom it concerns not. We quote the Louisville Journat, e. g. "Chapman, of the lpt- dianapolis Sentinel, says that Mr. Van Buren has the mark of Cain upon his brow.' Chapman has the mark of several canes upon his back." The great chemist, Berzelius, died at Stockholm on the 7th inst. The Daily News says :—" The endowment of the Irish Catholic clergy is likely to be brought forward next session, with the support of the three influential parties in Parliament." The effective force of the French army, which, before the revolution of February, was 342,767 men, is now 522,127. Lieut. Munro was liberated on Tuesday from New- gate. Before his release an application was made to Mr. Baron Alderson at Chambers for a summons to be directed to the governor of Newgate, showing why he refused to give up the prisoner to certain sheriffs' offi- cers who held an execution against him but the learned judge refused the application, and the debt was subse- quently settled. Government have determined on patronising the ex- periment of conveying the mails per a vessel furnished with an improved screw propeller, to the Cape of Good Hope and to intervening parts, and thence to Australia. The perfect facility as well as advantages of this route have been demonstrated and there is little doubt the passage will be accomplished in at least seventy days. The Parliamentary Committee of the Council on Edu- cation have resolved to devote 1:30,000 for workhouse schools. Many of the Irish labourers who were employed upon the Harrogate and Church Fenton Railway, have saved a sum sufficient to pay their passage to the United States, and have taken their departure in search of good fortune in the wilds of North America. It appears from a return moved for by Lord Dudley Coutts Stuart, M.P., that the total number of Irish paupers who received relief from the poor-rates in the parishes of London, Westminster, Marylebone, Lambeth, Tower Hamlets, Southwark, and Finsbury, during the year 1847, amounted to 21,859, and the total cost of such relief to E26,650. On Tuesday se'nnight, the Rev. Jephson, of Trinity College, Dublin, Curate to Dr. Hook, of Leeds, was received into the Romish Church at St. Chad's Ca- thedral, Birmingham, togetherj with his lady and two children, by the Rev. C. Lopez. La Democratic Paclique mentions an announcement that Lamartine is about to publish a work entitled Three Months in Power."

1 FATAL COLLIERY E-,rLOSION. -FirrEE-, LTVEB LosT.-It is our painful duty to report that a melan- choly accident occurred on Thursday, at about one o'clock, by an explosion in Polka Pit, at Murton, neat South Hetton, about ten miles from Sunderland. by which twelve men and three boys have lost their live*. Another boy is so much injured that he is not expected to recover. One horse and two ponies were also killed. COMMITTAL FOR WILFUL MURDER.—On Wcdnes- day last, John Pritchard was finally examined at Bangor, on the charge of the Wilful Murder of John Rowlands, at the works of Britannia Bridge. Addi- fional evidence was adduced, which warranted the committal by Colonel Pennant, of the prisoner to tho gaol in this town on the charge of iiiurder. -Cai-iiat-van Herald. MURDER NEAR NEWCASTLE.—The village of Birt- ley, about four miles from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, was on Saturday last thrown into a state of commotion caused by the commission of a brutal mutder by one of the I workmen in the Birtley iron works of one of his fellow workmen. It appears that on ^flurday morning George Watson and Thomas Rcid, who are employed in the above named establishment, went to their work as usual; something passed between them in the course of the morning which led to a quarrel. After several angry words had been spoken in heat by both parties, Watson raised a bar of ireii and struck Itcid on the head, which laid his skull open. Reid imme- diately fell and expired in a few minutes. Watson was seized and has since been committed to Durham Gaol on the coroner's warrant, charging him, on the finding of the jury, with wilful murder. RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—A serious accident occurred on the London and North Western Railway to the early up mail from York, on Thursday morning, a few miles north of Wolverton. The branch mail train from Peterborough left Northampton at its proper time, and was proceeding on the main line to Wolverton, when the connecting rttfi of the engine gave way, and the train was brought to a stand. The guard was instantly sent back with fog signals; he had placed one upon tho rails and was proceeding to place another, when the York mail came up. Th¡ driver made every effort to stop it, and the speed was greatly reduced, but the rails were so slippery, from the state of the weather, that a collision took place. The post-office van and a first- class carriage were completely destroyed, and one of the adjoining carriages partially injured. Several passengt-rs by the York train, among whom were the Rev. Dr. Townsend, of Durham, and his lady, received severe contusions. Collins, one of the guards, is so seriously inj ured, that his life is despaired of. AIURDER.-Oll Wednesday afternoon a woman, about thirty-one years of age, well known in the country, was found lying on Shaw-hillrcommon, Wiltshire, quite in. sensible and covered with bruises. Iler face was black fro.11 the violence to which she had been subjected, and on examination it was found that she had been stabbed with s-ime sharp weapon in the neck. The unfortunate female, who was a single woman, was found by a gentle- man who had been passing the place, and with the as- sistance of the peasantry she was conveyed to the village, where she remained till Friday, when she died, without having opened her eyes or spoken a word since she was found on the cotnnu 1. No conjecture was in the first instance formed as 10 how or by whom the unfortunate woman had come to the maltreatment to which she had been subjected, until it was recollected by a neighbour- ing farmer that a young man, with a fustian coat and trowsers, had been seen speaking to her an hour or two before she was found. In three or four hours after the woman was found, a young man seemingly about twentr N-cars of age, calltd without a coat at the Ilectory of tho llev. Mr. Ilid.lo, of Everleigh, some few miles distant from where the female was found. He represented himself as being in want, and asked relief. The rev. gentleman refused to give him anything, observing that he was a young and athletic man, and ought to earn a livelihood by working instead of begging. No sooner had Mr. Iladdo made th's remark than the rufifan, putting lii-i hands into his pockets, pulled out several stones, and with one of them hit the rev. gentleman on the arm. Mr. Iladdo, with great presence of mind, slammed the door in his face, jiist as he was in the act of throwing another !arge stone at him. Eventually the assailant was taken into custody by some persons who witnessed the assault, and, on being brought before the magistrate, so far from denying the ferocioua attack, he expressed his regret that he had not succeeded in muidering the rev. gentleman, adding that he had already murdered one person that day, of which they would afterwards hear. The coat, which was found near the body of the woman, was ascertained to belong to the prisoner it was made of the same material as his trowsers. The prisoner gave his name as James Smith, and represents himself as a moulder by trade, but his statement is not ciediied He is a perfect s'ranger in the neighbourhood. He was committed to Devize* prison ij await the result uf the coroner's inquest.
