DREADFUL COLLIERY EXPLOSION. 'imRTY-HtlvB LIVES LuST. I A dreadful explosion of fire-damp occurred on I Tuesday morning last, nt the llebburn Pit, the pro- perty of Thomas Easton and Company, on the river Tvne. Newcastle. The explosion took place about half-past six o'clock in the morning, when upwards of 100 woikmen were in the mine but it was cut,- fined to the north-west district, where the SUtfrt18 were employed. The entne workings extend over about fifty acres, and are ventilated by means of two shafts, an upcast and a downcast one-the furr.nce system of ventilation been employed. As usual in such cases, nothing is known as to the immediate cause of explosion, for no one lives that can tell the tale. The air had to travel about 1,232 feet before reaching the place where the explosion occurred, and ab-iut 840 yards to its ecapement by the upcast shaft, but the coal scam being undulating, the cause- way was in some places nut more than five feet in height, ill o hers lourteen or fifteen feet, the lower level being taken for the formation of the rolling- line. 011 Monday night there was a heavy thunder stoira. On Tuesuay morning it IS supposed the loul air had accumulated in the arched rouf of the course, and 011 the horses being set to woik to draw waggons, which nearly closed the air couise in some places, it it suppused the loul air that hall gathered in the dome was driven out of its icceptucie into the pnrt where the men were working with candles, and igni- tion wus the conseqiienci This, however, is all mere conjecture, tonned l.om a knowledge ot the workup's uf the mine; for all iu the part where the explosion took pl.ice are dead, untl the survivors in the other pait ot the mine cull only speak to the faets which illlit-atett to them that an explosion took place.

HOUSE OF LORDS,-THURSDAY. DEFECTS IN LEASES BILL. Lord CAMPBELL moved the second reading of -this bill Lord BROUGHAM admitted this bill would be R great improvement on the law as it at present stood. The question affected by this bill was one which de- fended upon theconstruction of powers, a part oflaw .0 very nice and so very capricious that it was his practice while at the bur never to give an opinion on it with any confidence, unless he hrad seen a deoision upon a case perfectly similar. The bill was lead IIsecontl time. B.VNKKUI'T LAW CONSOLIDATION BILL. Lord BROUGHAM moved the third reading of the bill. He said the bill now went elsewhere, but lie was hnppy to understand that it would receive the support of her Majesty's Government.. The bill was very important as part of a general digest of the law of England, and especially as a digest of a very important pait of that law-the law of debtor and creditor. He hoped to see it followed hy a digest i.1 the whole of the civil law of this country. The bill was then read a third time, and certain amendments having been brought up and agreed to. it was passed. PROTECTION OF WOJlEN. Earl NF.1.SON presented petitions from Methodist cungregations in Lincoln, Waithamstow, and other I laces, in favour of this hill. The Marquis of WESTMINSTER presented peti- tions, to the same effect, from places in the county <i| Chester. The Bishop of LONDON presented similar peti- tion* Iroin paritihro in the city of London. The Bishop of OXKOK1) presented several peti- tions from Rocheslet, Leominster, Wakefield, and other places, in favour of the bill. The right rev. prelate then moved that the house should resolve itself into a committee on this bill. The bill went through comiuitt e. On the bringing up of the report, The Bishop of OXFORD moved the omission of the eecotid clause of the hill, and the insertion of the words 11 for lure or gain" after the word" shall," as had been suggested b, the Lord Chief Justice I.ord Denman.) The amendment was agreed to. Lord CAMPBELL 6aSd, for the sake of the public, the bill ought to be printed in it. amended form, io ■order that it might be considered in its principle, and its various provisions. It then he thought he could support the third reading he would but if he i ould not, he gave the right rev. prelate due notice now that he might not be exposed to the imputation ot improper motives, ifhe should think it incumbent on him to oppose it. The Bishop of OXFORD concurred in the sug- rstion of 'he noble and learned lord, and there- to: e moved that itllhould be reprinted with theamend- tUl!llhl, I r(I PORTMAN hoped the right rev. prelate would give sufficient notice of the third reading 01 the hill, that ;luir lordships, having considered the piimed bill as amended, might attend in their places it disposed, and give their votes upon it. The Bishop ot OXFUHD understood that the piim-iple ut the bill had been discussed on the second ie lding, and he had to remind their lordships that I he second leading had been postponed till late in the >4«ioii that it might be so discus-el. lIe had, 01 ■ muse, no olijtciion to the principle of the bill being (iisciissed but he hoped, at this late period of the session, nothing would be done UII- necessary to impede its passing before the recess,- tie would fix Thuisday uextlur the third reading of the bill. Some conversation ensued between Lord Broug- ham and Kill Grey as to the order of business for Thursday nexi, that being the night tixed for his motion on Canada; but nothing was heard in the -„lleiy. The Archbishop of DUBLIN moved that the special icportof the Education Commission, relative tl) Ihe endowed school of Cloninel, lately sent in to liis Excellency the Eurl of Clarendon, should be laid up'>n the t ib.e The return wa- ordered.

HOUSE OF COMMONS,-THURSDAY. A« only thirty-four members were present at four o'clock the house stood adjourned until (o-iuoiiow. HOUSE OF LORDS,—FRIDAY. Lord STANLEY presented a petition from the Lord Mayor, aldermen, and common council of the Uily of London, praying that the lands of the Irish Society inay be exempted from the operation of the Leasehold Tenure of Lands (Irelaild) Bill, Lord CAMPBELL moved th.,third reading of the bill, intimating that he hud prepared a clause to carry out the suggestion of the Earl of Lucan, that the assistant banister should ad judicate on all differ- ences arising under the bill, when the rent did not exceed £50. the addition of which he would move alter the bill had been read a third time, expressing his hope that the proposition for exempting the Irish Society would not be peisevered in.-After various objections ruised to the bill in the present form by the Earl of Wicklow, Lord Monteagle, Beaumont, Brougham, and 6tanley, the third reading was post- poned until Monday next, with a view to suggest amendments being printed in the interval. The Maiquis of NORTHAMPTON presented a petition, the prayer of which was understood to be that government aid might he given towards estab- lishing more frequent exhibitions of agricultural implements; after which the E., I Stanhope post- poned his nutice or presenting petitions on the sub- je. t uf agricultural distress until Thursday next.- Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS,—FKIDAY. Lord J. RUSSELL was understood to promise Mr. Hume that he would name an early day to enable the lion, gentleman to bring on his motion with res- pect to British 17uilna. )Ir, MILES put a qestion to the government with respect to resolutions passed at the annual meeting of the National Society on Wednesday last, on the subject of the management clauses. Sir G, GREY replied that he had received no ill- foimation on the subject, nor had the matter come betcre the Committee of Council on Education tliereiore he could not say whet course the coni- IILttee might take respecting any resolutions which might be transmitted to them by the Archbishop ol Canterbury as chairman of the National Society. Discussions ensued at the instance of Nir. II. Drummond and Mr. P. Scrope. on tho subject of the evictions at Toonievara ami Kilrtsh, Sir It Pee) stating that he was aware of the extreme difficult) of applying any legislative remedy in such ca es as had been brought under notice, but he thought it po.-sible that an expression of abhorrence and indig- nation at them on the part of the house might have t ime effect in checking them. On the motion that the house should go into com- mittee on the Poor Relief (Ireland) Bill, Sir H. W. BARRON moved "That the property at present rated to support the poor in Ireland is totally inadequate fur the purpose that in England there are 67 millions of property rated to the poor, tne population being about 15 millions; whilst in Ireland there are only 13 millions of property rated to ilie poor. with a much poorer population ot about S millions showing nearly three times more proper- ty III England per head to support the pom than in Ireland; that, therefore, it is necessary to provide further means fo, support of the poor of Ireland, in order tu remove tht, extreme pressure which is now ci u,hill¡( low,, the ratcpayels ill that country, and checking the cllergies 01 all employers and capital- ists. Sir W. SOM! £ RVILLE replied to the arguments UM-d by thu lion, baronet in support of his motion, and moved as 1111 alllcndlllem that the Shcuker do leave the chair. Colonel DIW'NE supported the motion. J., rd J. RUSsKLL had no objection to make to the pioposal 01 the lion. member for Middlesex, that there should be an inquiry and if the hon. member would move foi the titJfwlntmcnt uf a committee, he (Lold J. Russell) would give his support to the mo- tion, and the Solicitor General would he ready to give every a8ist<ace towards 1msbiu uch a measuie us the house might approve. It was not, however, by one nicasuie, but by a series of mea. Me. that reliel (vuId he given to Ii eland. Mr. F. FRENCH thought that Sir 11. Peel, who had formerly legislated for Irelund on enoneous data, had no right now to charge upon the whole of the landed propiietury the misdeeds committed by a lew. Sir It. PEEL read extracts from Captain Ken- nedy's reports illustrative of the cruelties practised by evicting landlords, stating that lie did not think he had done wrongly when, on the first day after these reports had hi en laid on the table, he relused to a,iow such fads as these, stated i,1 public docu- tu he buried in oblivion. Un II c!ivisil)n, Ir II. w. nAllHO'S motion was negatived by a majority of 114, the numbers 30 to HI; and the house w< nt into committee on the l'oor Keliet Irclai.d Bill. On the leturn of the reporters to the gallery. Mr. J. O'CoNNELL (who it ippeated had ad-j dressed the house afier strangcis were oidoied to witlidarw ) sail I, afler the specimen ol fairness he had experienced when he attimpted to give expiei-sion to bit, opinions immediately pievious to the division, there was but CUe or two courses open to him, either to insist upon the house enloicmg justice to its members, or doing uwuy altogether with tin absurd practice, and therefoie he begged to observe that there were strangrn 111 the gallciy, and they were ^rdciri Iv ",Hlldr;!w. At a subsequent period, after a division on the question of reporting progress, the door of the re- porters' gallery was opened, and, one or two Ie. porters having entered, Mr. J. O'CONNKLL again rose, and called attention to the fact, whereupon they were ngain excludpd, and the ga lery remained closed to the rising of the house.
MESSAGE Of THE PRESIDENT I
MESSAGE Of THE PRESIDENT OF IHK FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have been politely favoured by Messrs. Wil- mer and Smith, news agents, of Church-street, with a copy of the fourth edition of the Morning Chro- nicle of yesterday, containing the following extiact front the Message of the President ot the French Republic.—Liverpool Mercury. FOREION AFFAIRS. It is the fate of France to shake the world when- ever she is agitated, and to calm it whenever she is tranquil. Accordingly, Europe holds us responsible for her repose, for her agitation that responsibility imposes upon us immense duties; it contiols our position. Atter Februar y, the centre coups of the Revolution was felt from the Baltic to the Meditei- ranean, and the men who preceded me at the helm of affairs, were unwilling to launch into a war, the issue of which no one could foresee. They were right; in the present advanced state of European civilization it is not permitted to expose one's coun- try to the risks of a general collision, unless one has, incontestibly, both right and necessity on his side. A mere secondary interest or political consideration more or less specious, is not enough, A nation like ours, it they engage in a gigantic war, should be able to maintain the grandeur, whether of her successes or of her reverses. At the period of my accession to power, moment- ous questions were at issue in different parts of Eu- rope, on the other side of the Rhine, as well as the other side of the Alps from Denmark to Sicily we had an interest to shield, an influence to exercise, but were that interest and that inlluence wotth run. ing the risk of an European conflagration for their energetic support ? Such was the question, and thtts stated, it is easy of solution. Adopting this point of view, France has, in all the foreign questions, which have given rise to the negotiations" hich wo are about to pass in review, done all that it was possible for her to do in the interests of her allies, without, however, having te- course to aritis-the last resort of Government. Sicily, about a year ago, arose in revolt against the King "f Naples. In order to stop the hostilities which had assumed the most cruel and bloodthirsty character. England and Fiance inteiposed with their naval forces and it must be admitted, that although England had a more ducct inteiest than France, yet the admirals 01 the two countries acted in conceit, and succeeded in obtaining lrolll King Ferdinand a complete amnesty for the Sielians, and the constitu- tion which guaranteed their legislative and adminis- trative independence. The Sicilians rejected these terms; the admirals, forced thus to relinquish the character 01 mediators, withdrew from Sicily, and shortly thereafter hostilities recommenced a very short time afterwards the people who had rejected favourable teims, weie compelled to surrender un- conditionally. In the north of Italy serious war bad broken out and at one moment, when the Piedinontese armv hllu pushed its successes to the Mincio, the belief was aI- obt just; tied that Lonibardy was about to regain her dependence discord soon dispelled that hope, and the King of Piedmont was forced to retreat into his own territory. At the period of my election, the mediation of France and England had been accepted by the belli- gerent partieti thenceforth our joint object could only be to obtain for Picdincnt terol. as little hard as possible; our line 01 conduct was defined, nay, imperative; to have acted otherwise would have; been to kindle all European Whr. Notwithstanding that Austria had lulled to send a negotiator to Brus- sel., the spot agreed on for the coiiierence, the I French Government advised Piedmont to stem the movement which was hurrying her into wa,, amI not to engne afresh in so unequalnsll ule. You are aware that our advice was not followed. Atter being again defeated, the King of Sardinia con- cluded directly with Austria a new armistice. Although Fiance was not responsible for such colliuct, still she could not allow Piedmont to be crushed, and from the Tribune the Government de- claied aloiid that it would lUaintain the territorial integrity ol a country which covers a portion 01 our f run tier. On the one hand we have striven to mo- derate the pretensions 01 Austria, who claimed what appealed to u" an excessive amount ot indemnity for the expenses ol the war; on the other hand, we have urged Piedmont to more equitable sacrifices for the attainment of an honouiable peace. We have every reason to believe that we shall succeeed in tilut work of con, iliution. Whilt these events Were passing in the north of Italy, Iresli cou,lI.u:iOlis occurred in thut l'eninaul. and compile.ited the Piedmontese question. In Tuscany, the Grand Duke had quitted his States; there had taken place at Rome a revolution which had deeply affected the fiieuds of Catho- licism and of liberty, For two years we had been accustomed to see the Holy See occupied by a Pontiff who took the lead in useful relorms, and whose name reached, in hymns of gratitude, from one end of Italy to tho other, was the very symbol of liberty, and the guerdon of Italian aspirutions.— All at once we learnt with amazement that the :0- vereign iu question, but yesterday the idol of his peo- ple, had b?ii compellcd to fly in disguise from his capital. Aceordinglv, the act of aggression which forced Pius IX to quit Rome, seemed, in the eyes 01 Eu- rope, to be rather thewoi k ol a conspiiaev than the spontaneous movement of his subjects, who could nut surely have passed in a moment trom sentiments of the liveliest enthusiasm to deeds of the basest in- gratitude. The Catholic Powers sent Ministers to Gaeta, to watch over the grave interests of the Papacy. It was necessary (iiat France, too, should be represented there. She listened to all that was said, without, however, lettering her ultimate aC- tions; but alter the deteat ot Nu-utri, the negotia- tions assumed a more definite aspect. Austria, in concert with Naples, and at the invitation 01 his Holiness, notified to the French Government that it must chouse its course, lor that the powers had resolved to march on Rome, for the purpose ol rc- establishing, purely and siinpiy, the authoiity of the Pupe. Forced to an explanation, there are but three couises to choose lioni. first, to resist by force ot arnit4 all in tempts at intervention by others, but that course would haae involved a ruptuie with all Catholic Europeans merely lur the sake of the Ro- man Republic, wliicn, by the way, we have never recognised. Second, to allow the three coalesced Powers to rest on the Papalllurhoritle. without any restriction, and acclIrJillK to their notion or good pleasure or, lastly, to excite for ourselves a direct and indepen- dent action. The Government of the Republic preferred the last couise.

PWLLHELI PETTY SESSIONS.-WEDNESPAY. Before 0. J. E. Nanney, 1, Esq., ana the itev. j. Williams Ellis, Clerk. t #1.'1 Bigamy.- William Williams, late 01 tne pansn of Bryncroes, in this county, was brought up charged with the offence of bigamy, under the fol- lowing circumstances. The prisoner wu p oved, before the Magistrate, to have married Elitabeth Roberts, daughter of one Daniel Koberw, iy nyPw1'. near Pwl\heli, on the 10th day of Fe^r""v' 1832, and had by her five children; they lived comforiably together after their marriage, like man and wife at .eTerat places in Lleyn, and about Pw))heh. and ? ??t d all at the parish of Bryncroes, when in the month of August last, the prisoner left and went to service to a place called Wern, in the parish of Llandegfan, in the county of Anglesea, and desert- ed his family, who, consequently went burdensome on the parish; his wife and two of his children, being now inmates at the Union Workhouse. On the 27th of last March the prisoner married one Catherine Jones (a native of Anglesea, who was alijo in service at the said place caHed Wern) at tte.m iog Church, in the :Oul.ty of Merioneth, and ?en?t with her to live to Llanddaniel-fab, Anglesea, a warrant was granted 011 the 3d of May last, to ap- prehend the prisoner for deaerting his family and a person was sent over to execute it but he failed doing so. It was then first of all found out that the prisoner had committed this felony, who, there. fore, immediately absconded. Several attempts were afterwards made to apprehend him, and on the 31st of last month, Mr. W'lliam Roberts, Clerk to the Board of Ouardians, and others succeeded in apprehending the prisoner in a certain house on Llandegai mouhtMn, in this county, and on the following day he was brought over to the Lock-up- house, at Pwllheli. The offence being clearly proved the prisoner was tulty committed to taks his trial at the ensuing assizes for this county.
HWLLHELI POOR LAW UNION.
HWLLHELI POOR LAW UNION. The following resolutions have been passed at the meetings of the Board of Ouardians of the Pwllheli Union, touching the charge recently preferred against Mr. Lloyd, a Medical Officer of the Union. At the meeting held 14th March, 1849, it was pro- posed by R. LI. Edwards, Esq., seconded by Mr. J. Williams, and carried unanimously. That a vote of censure be passed upon Mr. Lloyd for his very unwarranted attacks at this Board, upon the character of the Rev. John Owen, in inti- mating that he had some very black charges against hlln, so that he could never hold up his head again in the pulpit. And Mr. Lloyd having been called upon by the Board, at the request of Mr. Owen, to substantiate such charges, the Board consider that lie has entirely failed to do so." It was alterwards proposed by Mr. Williams, se- conded by Mr. Wutkins, "That the Chairman request Mr. I.loyd to leave the room on necouni of ungentlemanly behaviour towards It. J.I. Edwards, Esq., and offensive lan- gulige to the Board in general." It was also proposed by Mr. Watkins, seconded by Kev. John Evans, "That the charges against Mr. Lloyd, and his answer, together with a copy of the minutes, be for- warded to the commissioners, and requesting their early attention thereto." And it was proposed by Mr. J. Williams, seconded by Mr. Wm. Hughes, "That the thank. of this Boird be tendered to Mr. Owen, for his kind inteife.ence in the above case. At the meeting held 6th June, 1849, it was pro- posed by Mr. Cainegy, seconded by tne Hev. John Evans, "That the sense 'of the Board of Guardums be taken upon the letter received from the Poor Law Board, rcopccling the charge prefeired against Mr. Lloyd." And it was unanimously agreed. That this Board consider themselves as the com- plainants to such case, by their having through their clerk, torwarded such complaint to the Poor Law Board, and requesting them to institute an inquiry thereunto. And therefore this liourd cannot help expressing that they feel disatisfied with the Poor Law Board, in making it appear as the complaint 011 the Kev. Mr. Owen, who was only the informant of this Board in the matter." That the Board cannot too strongly express their feelings upon the determination 01 the Poor Law Board to retain Mr. Lloyd as an officer of the Union, after such gross insults to the Guardians generally and individually, particularly as they justify such conduct by a statement of Mr. Robert Roberts, IC- ceived by J r. Doyle, subsequently to the termination of the inquiry, and at variance with the oath 01 thiee Guardians, including the Chairman, taken in the Board Room publicly, pending the inquir).And also justifying him 011 the grounds that he had at- tempted leaving the room and was insulted before any alteration took place, whereas the fact is, he was leaving the room without giving the explanation required by the Guardians, calling them a parcel of fools, and so making himself the first aggressor. This being the second charge preferred against this officer, It was proposed by the Rev. John Evans, seconded by Mr. Ellis Kobertu, That the Board, feeling dissatisfied with the de- cision atrived at by the Poor Law Board respecting the charges brought against Mr. Lloyd, a Medical Officer 01 the Union, request to have a copy of the depositions taken by thir Inspector, Mr. Doyle, dur- ing the inquiry into the said charges. A letter signed 61 John Lloyd," having appeared in a local newspaper, wherein some untavourable insinuations ast upon the testimony of two res- pectable Guardians, in tho evidence given at the recent inquiry before the Poor Law Inspector, touch- ing eel taln charges preferred against Mr. Lloyd, It was proposed by Mr. Carnegy, seconded by Dr. Williams, That, in the opinion of this Board, such insinu- ation was not only uncalled for, but absolutely uu- warranted and unfounded, as several of the Guard- ians and the Cliaiiman of the Board are ready to verify upon oath.
CARNARVON HARBOUR TRUST.
CARNARVON HARBOUR TRUST. The usual meeting of the Trust was held in the Harbour OHice, on the lorenoon of Tuesday lust, Owen Jones, in the chair. The financial account of the Collector of Harbour dues evinced a comparative falling off on the ten months included between July and April, the amount being A; 1,535 15s. d" and f 1,3 10 1 Ss. 11 d. respectively; but the month 01 May had encreased troin £ 142 17s. 2d. to £ 146 93. lid. A letter was read ifoui Mr. Clarke, of the Britan- nia Bridge works, accounting for some recent tem- porary inconvenience to the shipping in the Straits and, ut the close of some conversation, it was resolv- ed to write to that gentleman, in order to obtain a public notice to mariners, as to the day when the lifting 01 the tubes would close up the Menai for some hours. A long conversation ensued as to the question whether or not the Trustees would exceed their jurisdiction, or involve themselves in liabilities to any party, by ordering the unconditional closing up 01 an opening or way under Garnons-slreet, and ut length, 011 the motion of Mr. Hughes, seconded by Capt. J. Ttioinas-11 It was ordered that the opening under Garnons-street, being a most offensive nuisance, be forthwith closed under the directions of the sur- veyor. )1r. Titterton and other Trustees drew attention to the delay occasioned to pussengers, coming by the Fairy,' from Bangor and Beaumaris,(in landing on the New Pier. Some blamed the Captain and others the Hatbour bltisters but all agreed with Mr. Hughes, of her Majesty's Customs, that it was the duty or the Port to make every possible provision for the convenience of the public; and, Un the motion of A3 r. R. D. Williams, seconded by Mr. U. Turner, it was ordered- That it be all instruction to the Harbour Master to keep a Ciuay Berth lor steamers at all .times when practi- cable." It was ordered, on the motion of Mr. J. Hughes, uiided by Mr. Titteiton. se ?"I'liaL "8 the bank opposite the New Pier is n serious obstruction to the navigation of the Harbour and the lauding of passengers from the steamers, II committee consisting of the following gentlemen :— The Chairman, Mr. l'lioinas Turner, Mr. It.

Agreed on tho motion of Mr. John Hughes, se- conded by h. H. D. Williams, That as it appears this room is occasionally made ue 01 for purposes other than the business of the Trust, without the consent of the Trust being first obtained; it is resolved that no patties whatever shall be permitted to use the Committee-room lor public meetings or otherwise, without the consent ut a regiilitri' v cutiveiit:d meeting of the Trust being ti r, t obtained"" T hut the Menai Steam Navigation Company be allowtd the use uf the Committee-room, for the purpuse of holding their meetingsand That this meeting be adjourned to Tuesday, the 19tit uiot., to be held at the ubual time and place,"

STATE OF TRADE.I
STATE OF TRADE. I MANCIIESTHR.-The growing firmness which was I perceptible in out market last week, has been still more apparent to-day, accompanied with some in- crease ot business. This is partly attributable to the favourable commercial advices from India, and partly, also, to the continued tendency of cotton to rise in the American markets; something is likewise attributable to the postponement of business during the holidays. HUDDEHSFIELD, JUNB 5.—A fair amount of busi- ness continues to be done, and several orders in hand are waiting for completion. The holidays of last week caused the warehouses to be rather dull. The wool market is steady, and some sorts are a litt.e improved in price. HALIFAX, JUNE 2.— Neither in plain nor figured worsted goods is there any change for the better, either as regards demand or price. In yarns there is more doing for export, the shipping houses having given out their ordeTs more freely, but prices are rather drooping. Wool is inactive, and the quota- tions have still a downward tendency. LEEDS, JUNE 5.—The market for woollens remains flat. The business done to-day is very trifling in amount,and the worst anticipations prevail respecting the luture ol the woollen trade. GLASGOW PIO IRON MAKKET, JUNES.—The iron market is very steady at 43s. per ton for 3.5tha and 2-5ths good brands.
I ASCOT IIEATH RACES.I
ASCOT IIEATH RACES. TUESDAY, JUliE 3. I A more numerous or a better class of company has not often been seen on a first day, even at this favourite resort of the aristocracy. All were on the qui vive for the rrival of her Majesty. Unfortunately, a tremen- d *us thunder storm came on shortly before the royal liveries were visible in the distance, and Ihe ?.?lo,e at the Grand Stand, and the course, were cleared as if by magic. The rain ceased shortly after her Majesty ar- rived at the Hoyal Stand, but it completely damped those loyal effusions which fine weather, it would aeem, are necessary to elicit.

" Oh could I borrow the wand…
Oh could I borrow the wand of a Fairy, I'd have a pair of those beautiful wings." To the Editor of tke North Wales Chronicle. I SIR,—On Saturday last, as I was taking a passage to Liverpool by the steamer Catnbria, on reaching Beaumaris I observed that the beautiful new steamer Fairy waited to have a run with us, no doubt con- scious of her own suppleness and swiftness; and from the numbers assembled on the Pier to witness the race, I was informed that she was determined to prove her superiority of speed over the Cam- bria, having before, it is said, beat the steamer Prince of Wales. However, be this as it may. the race continued to Puffin Island, when the Fairy was left where the little boat was left-astern, and a long way astern too, to the great amusement of my- self anil others the result proving that the Cambria still continues to be the fastest Boat out of the Me- nai. If the Fairy must race, let her try her speed with Pigmies, and not with substance and swift- ness already proved. You will oblige me by inierting the above in your next Paper. I remain Sir Your Obedient Servant, A TIIAVELLER.
NATIONAL SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING…
NATIONAL SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING THE EDUCATION OF THE POOR. The annual general meeting of this society took place on Wednesday, at the central school-rooms of the society, Westminster, and was presided over by the Archbishop of Canterbury. The report having been read, the Rev. O. A. Denison, a gentleman of Tractarian notoriety, moved his promised resolution, to the effect that all State assistance rendered to schools under clerical management, should be en- tirely unconditional. It was seconded by Dr. Words- worth. Archdeacon Allen concurred in the view that education administered by the Church should be subject to no compulsory clauses, but defended to a certain extent the Committee of Council against some of the charges which had been brought against them. He proposed, as an amendment that the set- tlement of the question at issue between the Com- mittee of Council and this society should be left to the committee of the society. A second amendment was proposed by Archdeacon Manning.-A long and rather stormy discussion followed, in which Mr. Denison, the Bishops of Ox- ford, Salisbury, and Chichester, Lord Nelson, and other speakers, took part.-Archdeacon Allen's amendment was rejected by an overwhelming ma- jority. The Archbishop of Canterbury then put Arch- bishop Manning's amendment, which was carried almost unanimously. Mr. Denison, having with- drawn his resolution, moved an adjournment, which seemed to find farour with a considerable portion of the meeting, but the Archbishop refused to put such a motion, as he had no power, and in the midst of considerable confusion declared the proceedings ter- minated. The Record commenting on these proceedings, says:Tlie Rev. Mr. Denison took little by his motion. In fact he was defeated." This. however, is not the opinion of the English Churchman, which observes With the result [of the meeting], all things considered, we are very well satisfied. Mr. Denison was placed in a most difficult position, but considering that almost every speaker, and an overwhelming majority of the meeting, cordially assented to his views of the position of the Church, and the unjust, encroaching conduct of the Com- mittee of the Privy Council, we consider that he was quite justified in acquiescing in Archdeacon Manning's amendment-, for although it is some- what less brief, bold, and definite, it is, perhaps, a more agreeable and convenient document upon which to negotiate with a government: and it may be made equally efficacious, for its spirit is the same. The following are the terms of the amendment which was carried:- That this meeting acknowledges the care and atten- tion of the committee in conducting the correspondence still pending with the Committee of Privy Council, and they regret to find that a satisfactory conclusion has not yet been attained. That while this meeting desires fully to co-operate with the state in promoting the education of the people, they are under the necessity of declaring that no terms of co-operation can be satisfactory which are not based on principles and modes sanctioned and com- mended by the Church of England. To which was adlled- And in particular, when they shall so desire it, to put the management of their schools solely in the clergy and Bishop of their diocese.

EARTHQUAKE.—The city and neighbourhood of Carlisle were visited by an earthquake shock on the 30th ult., a few minutes before fuur p.m., at a time when the atmosphere was darkened and disturbed. The shock was distinctly felt by several persons and some heard a rumbling noise like the sound of a large stone under an archway. FLIGHT OF VISITORS FROM BADXN BADEN.— Letters from Strasburg of the 1st inst. announce the arrival there of several distinguished foreigners who had fed from the baths of Baden in consequence of the violence offered by the Revolutionists to a rail- road train conveying company from a bill. The Re- publicans called to the engineer to stop, in order that they might search the carriages fur some officers who had refused to serve. The engineer having continued his course, the insurgents fired into the carriages, and several persons were dangerously wounded. We have heard that the Poor Law Board are en- deavouring to ascertain the general state of manufac- tures, trade, and agriculture, in the several counties throughout England and IVales especially the position of the labouring classes. ESSEX,—CHARGE OF ARSON AGAINST A POLICEMAN. Charles Drake, belonging to the Essex county police has been committed to take his trial charged with having wilfully fired a barn belonging to Mr. T. Carns. Hop INTELLIGENCE.—CANTERBURY.—The hops have made great progress in growth during the late warm weather; but being overloaded with fly and lice, it is next to impossible that they can recover, and the only chance is of fresh shoots pushing out. It was to be hoped that the slight thunder-storms of Tuesday would clear away some of the vermin, but this effect is hardly perceptible. The rains were so partial as to have been of little service in the hop gardens. The duty is laid at f,80,000, with every chance, according to the visitation of a few years ago, of descending to half that amount. --Kentislt Observer. ORDINATIONS.—On Sunday last the Archbishop of Canterbury admitted to holy orders twelve deacons and nine priests; the Bishop of Peterborough eight deacons and thirteen priests the Bishop of Chiches- ter, ten deacons and four piiests; the Bishop of Exeter, fourteendcacons and seventeen priests the bishop of Ely, seven deacons and six priests the Uishop of Oxford, twenty-four deacons and eleven priests; the Bishop of Manchester, fourteen deacons and twenty-two priests the Bishop of St. David's seven deacons and three priests. The Archbishop 01 York held an ordination on Sunday the success- ful candidates include eleven deacons and fourteen priests. An ordination was held by the Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol, in the cathedral, Gloucester, on Sunday, when there were admitted into holy orders eleven deacoiisaiid fourteen priests. THE PRIMARY VISITATION OF THE ARCHMSHOP OF YORK commenced at Thrisk, on Monday last, the 4th instant, when there was a large attendance of the clergy. The charge occupied upwards of air hour in deli, cry, and" will long be remembered," says the Morniny Herald, for the spirit of humble piety and sound and godly admonition it contained." The most important point in the Archbishop s charge referred to the much agitated question of baptismal regeneration. It was, said his lordship, quite clear that the compilers of the services, both in the 6th of Edward and also in that of Queen Elizabeth, held the peculiar doctrines of Calvin, almost without exception, on the doctrines of election, predestina- tion, and final perseverance. Hence they taught and believed that spiritual regeneration in baptism could only be partaken of by the elect, and all men were not elected, and thus they could not bo sup- posed as believing it to be received by all, nor could frame it to convey such u meaning, unless with the gross dishonesty practised by some parties now, who teach one doctrine, and at the same time believe ano- ther, No such hypocrisy was theirs; they did not believe it to be, and you are not culled upon to take it as II ruie of the Church, that all who are baptised are spiritually regenerated. No such doctrine is taugnt by the Articles, and you are not to force upon them a construction they will not admit. THE QIIKEN DOWAGEU,-ller iilajesty the Queen Dowager is still at Worthing. It was the intention of her Majesty to lemainonly a week, but the Queen's health is much improved.
