If jon hare four acres yon cannot , by any possibility , do all in time ; bnt if two , ton wffl have a much better chance of success , and , r ecollect , loss of crops is loss of time , season , and space too . I teg of aU our friends advocating the f 0 ur-acr * danotmentsto weigh . weU the subject ; search , aQ ( jjou will find , I am sure more telling arguments

      t han mine to prove my text . The two acres of Land ^ iU require all your time to develope its resources . Tie Land ' s value is not known , even our friend Feargus O'Connor estimates its value much , very much below the wuk In £ » ct ^ agriculture instead of being in its infancy , is not born yet . Nature has done nearly all , anJnotart . Toiisn . —A Liverpool correspondent desires to know whether he can obtain an impartial nistory of Poland in the English language , and if so , where it can be obtained . We have made enquiry of an eminent Polish patriot , who informs as that he has good reason to believe that no such-work is in existence .

      Carlisle . —We have received an account of a meeting of members of the Chartist Co-operative Land Society , where held is not stated , but the letter bears the Carlisle post-mark . Host likely the letter would be found unobjectionable , and entitled to a place in our columns could we read it , but that is not possible . "We beg to inform tie writer of ihe said report , aad other correspondents besides him , that we are not mesmerists , nor have we been mesmerised . We can only read . in the ordinary way , and if communications are not written in accordance with ordinary sense we cannot read them , and consequently cannot give them insertion .

      At the said meeting the following resolutions were adopted : — "That the allotments should be divided according to priority of payment . " " That the society ha legally enrolled according to the opinionof counsel . " " That the Chartist Co-operative Land Society consist of an unlimited number of members , to be divided into sections of not more than 6 , 000 members each . " " That a meeting ofthe society be held on Monday , Dec . 1 st , to elect a delegate to attend the forthcoming Confer , euee . " " That the delegate be requested to support the reflection of the present Board of Directors . " Some other resolutions appear to have been adopted , hut their purport it is impossible for us to make out .

      Ide Factor * System . —A correspondent at Stockport writes that one George Fox , an overlooker at Mr . Howard's mill , gave publicity to a scandalous report respecting two young women that worked under him . S . "Williamson , one of the young women , about fifteen jears of age , told the master , and he sent for Fox , but Fox denied having set the scandal about . The employer said if anyone said anything to her about the scandal , they should be immediately turned away from - the null , because the report -was not true . But mark , in about a week or so after that , S . Williamson went to fetch some bobbins , the overlooker caught her out of ler " alley , " and forthwith he cursed her for all that was bad , throttled her , and dragged her out of the room by the hair of her head . For this iufamous

      assault she summonsed , him before the magistrates on the 5 th of November ; there were three factory lords ou the bench , Messrs . Howard , Gee , and Wilkinson , flavor . After they had heard the two witnesses for the young woman , James Banes ter was called on bahalf of Fox , who said , "he saw Fox dragging the young -woman ( S . "Williamson ) out of the room by the hair of her head . " ( The man was leaving , and therefore spoke the truth . ) The Mayor told Fox his witness had doaehim no good ; he must , therefore , be fined five shillings and costs . The witnesses returned to their work ; hut Fox sent one of them ( Hannah Bradbury )

      away , at a minnte ' snotice , saying , " He would see that she had no more work in the town . " She has been to several places in the town , and they have refused her work ) because she went against Fox . She has no home , and has been obliged to throw herself upon the streets to support herself . The other witness ' s name was Elizabeth Loans , and Fox so abased her , that she has been obliged to leave . The overlookers hare a union amongst themselves , and consequently are enabled to prevent any worker , male or female , obtaining employment , who may incur the displeasure of any one of this gang of petty , hut cruel and heartless despots .

      Manchester Tailobs . —At eleven o'clock on Friday morning we received a lengthy report ofa public meeting of the Manchester tailors , holden on Wednesday evening . It is impossible to give the report this week . Oon Aghsts -wiD please observe , that it is only communications for the paper that are io be addressed to the JBditor .

      Mosoir:—Ireland.—^The Poiatob. Cbok—As W...

      Mosoir : —Ireland . —^ The Poiatob . CboK—As we predicted , it isnow discovered thatthediseaseis m the roiATOE , and that the whole crop stands in imminent danger . We have before directed attention to the several recommendations of the . three chemists , which , we suppose , may be looked upon as the JVeeursor Association in the potatoe movement . "They have contrived to heap such an amazing amount of rubbish together , that the appointment of a very large commission , consisting of inspectors of constabulary , military " officers , inspectors of coastguard , Poor Law Commissioners and their under secretaries , with Capt . J . ^ Kennedy as their secretary , has been considered necessary to aid in analysing the said rub- , boh . This , like most of Sir Robert Peel ' s measures ,

      is a faithful following of Whig practice . The formation of this commission is announced by Sir Thomas Freemantle , the Irish secretary , in a kind of circular to the lieutenants of counties—and the . reader may judge of the ' speed anticipated from its workings from the following concluding passage . of the secretary ' s letter . He says : — " Should your " lordship be prevented , ly absence from the country , indisposition , or any other cause , from giving your attention , personally , to this important question , his Excellency would propose to nominate one of the deputy-lieutenants of yourcounty , onyourlordship's recommendation . " Now this panic is called an emergency : ; all cry speed , and all complain of the absence of a local directing : influence to enforcewoper economy and . a

      proper mode of preventing the spread of disease , while we find the Irish secretary committing a most palpable Irish bull . He says in his circular , "If yon ' are absent from home , " , that is , if you are at Vienna , Naples , Rome , or St . Petersburg !) , you are torecommend a substitute to his Excellency . " This is the way that Irish business is always transacted by English officials . ; Men that never saw a potatoe till it was boiled are appointed as commissioners , and absentees are appointed as the executors of their will . From all parts of the country the prospect of famine increases , while the Government acts upon the old principle "live hsrsc and-you'll get grass , " and , reversing the nursery adage , "tosuuT your month , and open your eyes , and see what God will send you . "

      Liberal Corporate Ecosoirr . —Some months ago , Mr . John , Reynolds , a repealer , had the matchless effrontery to bring charges of gross corruption against the immaculate liberal Corporation of Dublin . The Liberator ( Alderman O'Connell ) , threatened to annihilate him for this glaring act of contumacy . A meeting of the Town Council was held on Friday last , at which the Liberator determined to strike the last blow at the presumptuous Reynolds , and / Reynolds was determined to have & kick at Ban himself , and the whole afiair is so funny , and the manner in which Irish liberals answer charges of corruption with long yarns is so characteristic , we cannot refrain from giving the dialogue just as vre find it .

      " 3 Ir . IFLonghlin observed that oratory had been very injurious to that corporation , ft had given them a thirteen days * discussion , and had been the means of preventing them from getting their 4 per Cents , reduced to 3 i . As for the debate itself , it had been transmitted aU over the continent , and the eloquence ofthe members had , ere this , been wafted up the Rhine , and down the Danube , and np the Mediterranean to Constantinople , and across the Atlantic to America . ( Loud laughter ) . "Mr . John Reynolds said thathis friend Mr M'Loughlin need not be so severe on the debate , since he himself had taken a very active part in it , and his own speech had probably been translated into all the languages in Europe . "Alderman O'Connell . —That is an exceedingly small consolation to a person of his respectability , after being harassed and taunted by persons who ought to look to themselves how they address a man enjoying the high position of my friendMr . M'Loughlin .

      , " Mr . Heynolds . —I presume we are all on a level here , and so long as I am a man I will not permit any remarks to be made , no matter from what quarter , that will compromise my individual respectability _ with that of any other man . I am as respectable in every f elation of life as Mr . M'Loughlin . " Alderman O'Connell . —Indeed , your are not ; you were never more mistaken in your life . "Mr . Heynolds . —That is your opinion , not mine ; neither wUl I permit any one to address such observations tome . : : " Alderman O'Connell , —As for permission , that is not required . Let us have no foolish buUying here . "Mr . Reynolds . —I wUl not permit it , and" Alderman O'Connell—Thirteen days ought to be

      enough for you . " Mr . Reynolds . —I would do the same again . " Alderman O'Connell . —I am sure you would . "Mr . Reynolds . —! occupied a part of that time in warding off an obnoxious tax with which the citizens were menaced . "It is exceedingly improper to introduce this again . : '' - . " Alderman Keshan said that he would not have allowed the debute alluded to to have gone on had he been in the chair , and the house to have been treated with the contumely which had been bestowed upon it . " So then , if the Corporation of Dublin imposes an obnoxious tax upon the citizens , the only penalty to which its members is to be subjected is that of thirteen days jaw . - '_ ; - ¦

      .. Ose of the Fmsr Symptoms of Distress . —It is witli ' sorrow that we find the crime of murder on the dailv increase in Ireland , while the government and resident gentry are calmly looking on with folded arms at the dreadful cause of crime . . . Stock Exchasge . — The failure of one nrm in Dublin has had the effect of depressing the price ot shares in every line , and to add to the present distress , it is confidently , anticipated that many of the railway nroiects must be abandoned . The TRnnrxE . ^ - 'fhis collection seems to have received an additional stimulus from the prospect ot

      famine , and to the honour of the Irish people they arc determined that the Liberator shall come within Mr . Prentis's category of those who will find enough in the country if they have money to buy it . _ _ The Irish Catholic Bishops . —It apears that the apple of discord has had the intended effect upon the Roman Catholic hierarchy , six out ©^ eighteen of the bishops having declared their approval ofthe godless scheme of Government education , while all have agreed to leave the question to the final settlement ofthe Pope , and thus the question may be considered finally settled , as his Holiness will surely vote for PeelagainstO'Connell . , ; , , „ the

      Exglsxd . —There is nothing spoken of but Oregon . It constitutes the conversation of all circles , and the standard ofthe Stoek Exchange . Consols are going down , shares are going down , and , in the midst of all attempts to prop the tumbling concern , the leading papers are condemned to appear without supplements , and are , consequently , one and all furious with poor Jonathan , for daring to assert his rig ht to his own . Our power to crush America is a thing spoken of as if we were in possession of her ashes , while her power to injure us is laughed at ; and the old system of divide : and conquer is relied upon . Thus the leading journals of both sides would endeavour to foment strife , between the Northern and Southern States , and sow open their , eyes to the abominations of slavery . We will say merely a word here upon the relative destructive capabilities oi

      the two nations . Our fire ships may , in passing , pay their compliments to Sandy Hook , andmay bury New York in its ashes , it is true , but if we consign their buildings to ashes , as the old women m olden times cast their tea to the deep , may > ot their suecessora consign iheib coiton to the same element ? " Pooh ! pooh ! nonsense , nonsense , " respond the speculates , whoknowDot the meaning of patriotism ; 'theSouthern States know , their own interesttoo well . ' ? True , so they may , but a war of . r « te . ^' absorb all personal considerations and private : interests , and the battle cry will not be ' cotton and nionev " but "liberty and vengeance . " Moreover , Sis no war that would be so unpopular to the EnSI mind as that war in whiclrthe hired merce-Svmav be called upon to shoot his father or Lh bSer / in a struggle for that liber y which they Se denied in tbcfr own country ; and , thank God the public mind has sow some influence in public

      ^ FSk-Lookonthispictureandon this From ^^^^ ' ^^^^ sns ^ si publish accounts of declining trade , nulls wotiun short time , hands turned , out , P ^ n ^ 2 r ^ Price , and distress increasing , that ' s one picture now look on this . We ^ derstand that when the Court returns from the Isle of Wight to Winte the entertainments and festivities wiU be upon a scaie m unusual splendour -and magnificence . >> e will not damage the contrast by a word of comment . The Stock Exchange . — This has been the dullest lli

      day that the banditti has had since the -panic . e little spec in the west is hourly being magnified into a . portentous cloud , overshadowing the whole city , and paralysing every branch of trade . From liverpool we hear of no fewer than three distressing snicmes within the last week , owing to disappointment in railway speculation , while every other town m the country contributes its full share to the sad category . Tuesday . —To-day there is a complete dearth of news , and we wait for to-morrow ' s post to bring us our usual amount of fun from Conciliation Hall . We

      Mosoir:—Ireland.—^The Poiatob. Cbok—As W...

      learn that the panic in Ireland htti taken a frightful turn ih a run iipoh the savings' banks ; ^ nd -t hat the military and police have been ordered otft to protect the strong-box of the Government Trade ^ SW ^" lion . So much for confidence . v :- ; - ^ The Totatoe Crop ;—Some Irish jobbers , wh 6 think that they have laid in a- sufficient stock of sound potatoes , are beginning to discover that the potatoe failure is all romance , and that . infact , there never was so abundant a crop . This change of opinion has been occasioned by two circumstances ; firstly , the damage sustained from a glutted market

      produced by panic ; and , secondly , from an apprehension that their sound potatoes . won't keep for a legituhdte n » e . How melancholy , that &• set of speculating ruffians should be thus allowed to regulate the price of the people ' s food . Upon the other hand , the sapient commissioners and professors are coming to oub conclusion long since published , that the disease is more or less in every potatoe . Mout Maguirb . —We learn that , notwithstanding the y great exertions" of Captain Plunkett and the magistrates , that Molly and her children are making frightful havoc in Cavan . .

      The Tribute . —Accounts daily reach us of the success of the tribute , which promises to exceed any previous year in amount . Who would spoil' such a commerce by making slaves independent ? We take the following-from a Cork paper : — " What to do with rotten potatoes ¦?;¦ ' Pay the repeal rent and O'Connell tribute with them as in kind . " England , —Speculators appear resolved to rest upon their oars until the opinion of one little man in America respecting the Oregon territory shall be made known ; and as the herald of war is not likely to arrive here before the middle of next month , we cannot anticipate a very lively action in the money or share markets , both of which ; 'in tho language of the Jews , are gone to the devil .. The rvAawAvs . —Yesterday no fewer than ninety

      railway surveyors arrived at Euston-square station from Ireland , to deposit their plans and sections , and all sorts of humbug , in the proper place for receiving them , previous to the 30 tn , which is the last day allowed for that purpose . ( Query—Did they bring the necessary deposits in money or potatoes ' ?) On the 1 st of next month the London and Birmingham directors propose to make a large reduction in the rate of fares . Upon the Continent there are five classes—first , second , third , fourth , and fifth . The second is made comfortable with cushions and good seats ; the third is covered and spacious ; the fourth has seats , but is not covered ; and the fifth resembles

      the old Leeds and Manchester third class , with the exception that there are no holes bored in the bottom , to mow poor creatures who could badly afford - to pay third class fare into , the ssecond ; and , moreover , those classes arealway attached to every train , and placed most advantageously for shelter , whereas in England the poor people , whose enly property is their time , spend fifteen hours in going from London to Manchester , while the wealthy , who plunder them , perform the same journey in five hours and a half ; and when there is an open third class , it is invariably placed in the " ivind ' s eye , " that the naked may have , the benefit of the breeze as well as a smash .

      Foreigners Opinion of English Distinction . — When upon the Continent , Mr , O'Connor had to present his passport to an official , who happened to be a Frenchman , and * well versed in politics , and , upon reading the name , he observed , " Ah , that ' s a famous name . " "Ifear , " said Mr . O'Connor , " thefame of mine is only to be found in the prison calendar . " " Ah , that is nothing , that is nothing , " responded the official , " with all your boasted liberty in England , it is to the dungeon , or the grave , you must look for your great men . Court Circuiar ;—We learn that the unpropitious state of the weather , preventing the Royal family from taking their accustomed exercise on the slopes and in . the parks , the Queei has been engaged

      in knitting stockings and cutting out warm dresses for the poor of the neig hbourhood , while Prince Albert has been engaged in cutting down tho usual allowance of the Royal stud , and otherwise economising the food of the poor . ' . - ¦ : To Punch;—A friend presents . his best comnliments to Mr . Punch , and , from a thorough conviction ofthe great good produced by his inimitable pictorial representations , begs leave to present him with the three following subjects for cartoons : —No , 1 . A group of all the monarchs of the earth , standing with their crowns in their hands , and above a large rotten lumper crowned , and underneath , these words , " Who rules the hoasi now ?"—No . 2 . A large laundry , withallthenecessaiyutehsilsand implements ofthe craft— -with the Irish Commissineors and Lord

      Lieutenant and suite , getting up the rotten potatoes for use . Mr . iWAihay please himself as to eostumo , but . would recommend a pleasing mixture of professional and military , foi' machinery , vide 67 th Report of the Irish Commissioners . —No . 3 . A granary , with wheat , and the idle pensioners represented as . fat rats , with starving operatives as ratcatchers , in the act of destroying them . " The costume ofthe rats we also leave to tho acknowledged taste of our valued contemporary . Wednesday . — Ireland . —Conciliation-Hall . — Mr . O'Neil again moved that the expenditure of nearly a million of money upon Irish Railway Committees should be tivinsferred from London to Dublin : In our opinion , a very just and proper proposition . Mr . Smith O'Brien seconded the motion , and Mr .

      O'Connell , who proposed the Repeal of the Union as a substitute last week , supported it . The Liberator and the Gutter Commissioner . —The principal business of the day was a Platonic set-to between the Liberator and the Times' Commiasioner ^ -the Liberator walloping and belabouring the absentee to his heart ' s content , and the affair concluding by the Liberator declaring that he was no middleman , as he only held under a corporation , and only received £ 30 profit rent out of Cahirciveen , and , characteristically enough , called to his aid a publication called the Sportsman , as umpire . Upon the whole , we think Dan had decidedly the best of every round , and was ultimately declared victor , but a dispute arising , Mr . Foster declares that he was up to time . " so that we may expect another fight for

      the championship . The performance was meagre , m consequence of the receipts for the week being announced , amid great disapprobation , at the low figure of £ 158 2 s . 9 d . War . — The army is to be augmented by 20 , 000 men , and early in the ensuing year the militia is to be ballotted for ; and we understand that Repealers , or any who have contributed to the Repeal rent , will be rejected .

      g . . ,, The Railways ;— Still each train brings its full number of surveyors , and here , perhaps , it may not be amiss to state " one of those substantial causes that has led to the embarrassment of several railway companies . Our friend , Clarke , a land surveyor of Herefordshire , and one of the delegates to the celebrated Conference of 1842 , has for many months past been in receipt of twenty-five guineas a-week in surveying ono of the proposed new lines for seven days work in the week . Another acquaintance of ours , whose instruments we ' re in pawn at the time et his anpointment , has been for a longer period in receipt of" thirty-five guineas a-woelc , and on expressing our

      astonishment at this large salary , he assured us that it was rather moderate as the ' service was extremely dangerous , one ofthe conditions annexed to the olhce being that he should knock the brains out ot any b—y ganiekecucr , or clodpoJe , that atttempted to resist his passage through the Squire ' s land . Two rufiians who had particularly recommended themselves by their daring and recklessness at the late fight between Bendigo and Caunt , were engaged at a salary of four guineas a-week each , as the lifeguards of a gentleman whose lot it was to survey a line through the estate of a certain pugnacious Squire , a great supporter of the fancy .

      Stock Exchange . —Every day our monetary concerns and share market become more and move distressing , and we regret to find that the ignorant poor , who had left good steady employment for the promise of railway speculation , are amongst the greatest sufferers . This is always the worst of panic . The poor , the unconscious , and unprotected , are ever the greatest victims to the rich and privileged . ' ; Foreign . —The Oregon spec increases with fearful rapidity , and the prospect of war is the all absorbing topic with those who traffic in human blood , at home and abroad . . When willEngland be in a situation to keep the wolf from her own door , arid when will her rulersi be able ,, to conduct our domestic concerns without reference to every Will-o ' -the-wisp that appears in the remotest corners of the earth ? Answer , When the people have the } power to appoint the ministry , and when the greatnessof the nation shall consist in a community of happy individuals , who , having their rights , will know how to defend them for themselves .

      Singular Charge of Poaching . —At the last meeting ¦& the Kingston bench of magistrates , a person of respectable appearance , named William Stacey , attended to answer an information charging him with having unlawfully trespassed upon the estate of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge , at Coombe , near Kingston , in pursuit of game . Arthur Dunford , gamekeeper in the service of his royal highness , deposed that about nine o ' clock on the evening ofthe ISth of November , he was on duty in the game preserve at Coombe Wood , when he observed a greyhound , which , in his ' . presence , turned up a hare which it pursued , overtook , and . killed , and was about to walk off with it in its mouth , when he struck it with a stick , and it then dropped the hare and ran away . lie followed the doxr to one oi

      the entrances ot the wood , called the Gravel Pit-gate , where it joined two persons , who walked away accompanied by the dog . Ho gave information to one ot the horse patrol , who followed the parties , and he himself shortly went in the same direction , and came up with the defendant and another person , and upon his asking who the dog belonged to , the defendant said it was his , and he at the same time gave his name and address . In answer to a question from the bench the keeper said he took the dbg from the defendant and it was still in his possession . He added that he had no doubt , from the way it went to work , that it was a regular poacher , and understood its business perfectly well , and he considered it was worth twenty guineas . The defendant , in answer to the charge , said that the fact was , lie did come out for a walk , and brought the dog with him , and when they got near the wood they missed the dog , and he and his friend went to the gate , where

      they were seen by the keeper , to look for him , and shortly afterwards the dog came up to thcra , and they walked away , not at all imagining that the dog had been doing anything , until they were followed by the keeper , and on his stating what had happened , , ho readily gave his name and address- With regard to the alleged poaching propensities-of the animal , he assured the bench that lie was perfectly ignorant that it possessed , them , and he was not even aware that he was near a game preserve at the time the doglefthimand his friend . He assured-the bench that if he had committed an offence it was quite unintentional on his part . The magistrates after a short consultation convicted the dedendant , but under the circumstances said they should only inflict a lino of two shilingsand the costs . The amount was immediately paid , and upon the application of the defendant the greyhound was ordered to be delivered nptohim .

Moseley , in Camden-street , from which place she had been fior some improper conduct summarily dismissed on the morning of her death . She had appeared somewhat cheerful through the day , and had been into the town to purchase some articles of dress ; , but at night went out of , the house and threw herself off an aujacehtbridgc into the canal . A medical examination proved that she was enceinte , and some words it appears had passed between her and her mother during the day on her altered condition * The jury returned a verdict of Suicide under Temporary Insanity .

      Extraordinary Suicide . —On Wednesdayforenoon , William Carter , Esq ., the coroner , held an inquest in the board-room of Newington workhouse , Walworthrbad , oil the body of Isaac Drew , aged forty-five years . James Harding , of Brandon-street , Walworth , deposed that he had known the deceased for some time past , as occupying a small shed in the same yard , belonging to Mr . Riddle , a cab-driver . The deceased was abreeder of pigs , and was well-known as a most eccentric character . -On Monday morning last , between six and seven o'clock , whilst witness was in the yard ; he observed the door ofthe shed wide open , and on looking in he saw . the deceased suspended to one of the cross beams . Witness raised an alarm and

      sent lor inspector Collier , ofthe P division , who cut the deceased down . He was placed in a shelland removed to the workhouse . Witness slept in a van the night previous ^ atthe end of the yard , and in the middle of the night the deceased came ' home very much intoxicated , and caused great annoyance by knocking at the side ofthe vehicle with a large hammer , lie forced in the panel of the door , but was subsequently persuaded to go to his bed , which was made ofa blanket placed at the end of a large pig-sty The deceased was of very filthy habits , and was very evidently in a deranged state , and generally spoke in an incoherent mariner . Inspector Collier , of the T division , stated that he was called by the last witness to the deceased , whom he found hanging by . a rape , which was fastened to a beam over a pigsty . The

      placc > as in a horrible condition ; and how any human person could . exist in such . ' a dreadful den , he could not conceive .. The deceased sold his pigs on Saturday for £ 5 . There wove only 6 s . and a few , coppers in his pocket . Hannah Drew the wife ofthe deceased , said that she had been in the workhouse of St .. George ' s Southwark . The deceased was formerly a master butcher , in a large way oi' business , in High-streot , Southwark . but from his dissipated habits had been much reduced . About three weeks since he called to sec her at the workhouse , he was then in an excited state .. The jury returned the following verdict : — " That the deceased had destroyed his own life , be ing at tho time , in a state of temporary mental derangement , ' brought . ' on by his habits of intemperance . "

      Dreadful. Explosion At The Bishopswear-M...

      DREADFUL . EXPLOSION AT THE BISHOPSWEAR-MOUTH IRON WORKS . Sunderland , Thuhsday , Noyemdkb 27 . —Yesterday a painful sensation was occasioned in this town , in consequence of an awful destrueiion of human life by the bursting of a large boiler nt Bishopswearmouth Iron Works , belonging to Messrs . Richardson and Co . These workvwhielr-nre situated a very short distance from Sunderland , are very extensive . * Upwards of 800 hands are employed , and about 200 men and boys in that portion of the premises where tlie accident occurred . . At eight o'clock yesterday morning , most of the men employed at the works left for breakfast ; about forty or fifty remained on the premises , the greater portion of whom were in the rolling-mill and the immediate vicinity , having their breakfasts brought to them . Vive or ten minutes after tho men had left tho boiler burst with tremendous force , and was shivered to piecesby the explosion . Some of the pieces struck the roof , which was broken to fragments ; others bvoughtdownalavi ieadjoiningcliimney ,

      and were thrown to a considerable distance , doing damage to . the glass wovks of Messrs . Hartley aiulCo . ( and the Uatton steam-engine adjoining . Several poor fellows who were'in ; the mill , and at the forge , were buried teneath the ruins ; Three of them were taken out dead . Two or' three more were so seriously injured , that their lives-are despaired of , and fifteen or sixteen received wounds and bruises . : A boy , who was entering the foundry gates with his father's breakfast , was struck by one of the heavy pieces of metal which were thrown - into the air , and'killed on the spot . A woman who was near the place on the same ground , was knocked down , and her hand and arm severely cut . Several persons had narrow escapes from accident ; but the following is the most remarkable : —The pumping cngineman was sitting near his work getting his breakfast , having his two children , who had brought it , sitting on each side of him ; the roof of the building was carried completely oft , and yet not one of them was in the slightest degree injured . ' ' ,

      The damage done to the premises is very extensive , and will entail a heavy loss upon the proprietors , The works , too , will be necessarily only partially in operation for some time , which will be extremely inconvenient , as the company have large orders for iron rails , & c , on hand . .., We subjoin a list ofthe dead and wounded : — Names of the killed—Phillips , a boy ; Cornfoi'tb , a young man ; John Sugden , a boy , Oxley , a man .

      Threatened; Introduction ' . Of The :,,;...

      THREATENED ; iNTRODUCTION ' . OF THE :,, ; - ¦ -, NEW'FOOR LAW ; K , T 0 fOLDHAM . ¦ ¦ Great excitement has been manifested in this town and neighbourhood , in consequence of a report being in circulation that ' the Poor 'Law Guardians have ''issued an order to the overseers of the poor of this township , for the purpose of . bringing the New Poor Law into' operation in this district , ¦ . The select vestry being apprised of it , immediately called a public meeting of the rate-payers , which took place in the Working Man ' s Hall , on Monday , the 24 th instant , to take into consideration the best and most legitimate means of opposing the introduction of such an unconstitutional law . The spacious hall was h .

      densely crowded , and a more spirited and enthusiastic assembly we have ; not beheld for some time . The speakers seemed to vie with each other in their determined opposition to that inhuman and degrading measure . The meeting commenced by calling upon the High Constable , Jonathan Mellor , jun ., Esq ., to preside , which office he filled to the satisfaction of all present . He opened the business in a brief and appropriate speech ; the following resolutions were unanimously passed . Mr . Holliday , Mr . Tayler , Mr . Bailey , Mr . Quarm' y , Mr . Hirst , and others took part in the proceedings . A vote of thanks was passed to the chairman , when the meeting broke up about eleven o ' clock .

      1 st . That the New Poor Law being based on centralisation of power instead of its proper distribntion among the rate-payers , is wrong in principle and at variance with what has preva'led in England ¦ since the time of Alfred—namtly the division of England into counties , hundreds , wapentakes , parishes , ' and hamlets / each having the superintendence and management of its local affairs , and the raising and distribution of its own ratos . 2 nd . That when the Legislature enacted the New Poor Law , and conferred the extraordinary powers upon the Board of three Commissioners , itacknowledged thepbwers so conferred to be unconstitutional , and limited the exercisa of ' them to five year . And tiiis meeting iscf opinion , that the attempt now making by that unconstitutional board to bring this and the adjoining townships under their control , ought to be opposed by every inhabitant with all the legal means he has at his cemmftnd .

      3 rd . That the best and most effectual mothod to prevent its introduction , are , for every inhabitant to refuse to give any assistance , direct or indirect , in the appointment of guardians or officers of ^ any sort whatever , for carrying out under the direction of tho Poor Law Com . missioners this hateful and most unjustifiable law . 4 th . That the experience of ten years / during which the law has been in operation , lias tended to show that wherever it has been can ied out by the application of the self-acting workhouse test , and by the refusal of out-door relief to the able-bodied labourer , it has been the cause of great dissatisfaction to tho poor ; of loss of life to thousands , and of destruction of property to an immense amount . 5 th . That unsler this odious law the poor have no ap < peal , for in its administration the same treatment is insisted on by the commissioners , whether the unfortunate applicant be a deserving or an undeserving character , their only test being destitution ; and that however caused , they treat as crime ,

      6 th . That there has been an increase of rates under the operation of the New Poor Law , and that this meeting is of opinion , that if it be allowed to continue , that owing to its expensive machinery it will become , whilst less and less relief is given to the poor , the most costly mode of administering relief that was ever adopted in any age or country . —That the expenditure for the reliel of the poor of 0 S 5 unions arid parishes under boards of guardians for the years ending Lady Day , 1814 , according to the last report of the Poor Law Commissioners , amounted in 1 S 44 , to £ 4 , 370 , 171 , or 6 s . 5 id . per head on the total population of those unions . —The establishments charges and salaries alone being £ 748 , 985 . —In 1 S 44 , the whole expenditure of the township of Oldham was only 3 s . 4 Jd . per head on the total population ofthe Township , . " .- " ¦ ' - ' :

      7 th . That before the passing of this law , themagistrates were charged with being instrumental in introducing all manner of abuses into the mode of administering relief of the poor , and their power to grant relief , except in casm of urgent necessity , has been wrested from them;—but now their assistance as ex-officio guardians has been resorted to , in order * to indroducc the law into the Rochdale union , because a sufficient number of elected guardians to constitute a board could not be obtained . 8 th . That this meeting hopes and trusts that the magistrates of this district will not degrade themselves by becoming mere puppets to register the orders and carry out the regulations , of an unconstitutional board ; , but that they will insist on their power to grant relief to those they detm deserving of it , being restored to them before they think f : t to act .

      9 th . That the treatment of the poor under the sanction of the Poor Law Commissioners , in the Bridgcwateiy Andover , and other unions , and the guardians of the Bradfield and other unions , the degrading employment oi the . poor in workhouses , and in many other ways , together with their own recorded blunders in the formation of unions , shows the . commissioners to be less lit for directing how relief shall bi > administered to the poor in Oldham , than the rate-payers ore ; and this meeting , therefore , recommends - . every inhabitant to be strictly passive , and carefully avoid doing any act calculated to embitter the feelings of the poor , and to endanger the persons or property of those in better circumstances by becoming instruments to introduce the New Poor Law into theboroughof Oldham .

      10 th . This meeting most earnestly and sincerely recommends thohead overseers to stand aloof from any act or deed which might have any tendency to commit this township into the hands of the Poor Law Commissioners , and hereby undeitakesto defend the overseers against any action the Poor Law Commissioners may venture to bring against them . 11 th . That the foregoing resolutions be printed and posted throughout every township named as comprising the Oldham Union . 12 th . That a committee of the following gentlemen be appointed , with , power to add to their number , whose duty shall be to carry out the foregoing resolutions : — James HoUaday , llobert Yates , Daniel Collinge , Alexander Taylor , John Schofield , William Barlow . J . L . Quarmby , Richard Barker , Samuel Yardtey , William Knott , James Mills , Ealph Bradbury , Ambrose Hirst , James Bailey .

      13 th . Tint the thanks of this meeting is due to , and is hereby given to all those praiseworthy individuals , who have and who may continue their valuable services iu opposition to the New Poor Law .

      Gnv . iT Boat Race on the Ty . se . —CiAsrEH ksd Pocock . ' — Newcastle-uro . v-TrNE , Tuesdatt . —The great race between Henry Olasper , of Derwentbniigh , near Newcastle , and Pocock , of London , came off this day , on the river Tyne . tho distance being live miles , from tho Tyne Bridge to Lemmington Point , and the race for £ 100 a-side . Betting on Monday night in favour of Pocock , which changed on Tuesday morning , and before starting 5 to 4 on CJasper . There was a strong breeze from the north-west , which made the water rough , and was considered favourable to Claspeiv who was , of course , well acquainted witii every inch of the course , and know how to take advantage of the sheltering headlands . The men started themselves , and alter a few strokes Poeoek

      got a slight lead , but soon resigned it to Claspor , who did the same in turn . Indeed , for the first 200 yards the struggle was beautiful , the ' tiny skiffs battling with the waves , and the spray dashing over them , while each boatman exerted himself to gain a point over his adversary . After the first 200 yards Claspev got a ilecided lead , beinga full boat ' s length a-hcad , when Pocock went up inside and ran into him . and both became entangled for a few seconds , and on getting clear Pocock went away with tho lead , which he maintained about a quarter of a mile , till , on reaching some posts in the river . a little above tho Shot Tower , Olasper came up insiilo and ran into him , being determined to pay him off in his own coin . ¦ Pocock's boat had by this time shipped a good deal of water . On getting loose Claspcr took the lead , and went away several lengths a-head , gradually improving his position , owing , no doubt , to Pocock ' s boat

      having become heavy and unmanageable lrom tne quantity of water - it contained . > Pocock , in consequence , went ashore , and emp tied his boat—an operation which occupied some time—which afforded Olasper an opportunity , which be readily seized , of leaving his opponent behind ; and , when Pocock re-cnibarked , Claspev was more than half a mile ahead . This Pocock never could recover , so that ClasnGrhadallthe rest of the race te himself , swd won easiJv by mom than a quarter of a -mile . Pocock ' s boat was open , Clasper's covered with stout canvass , which kept the water out . Olasper won the choice of sides , and selected the north , or Newcastle side of the river . A-great deal of money has chanaed hands on the event . The crowd assembled in various craft upon the river , and on its banks , was immense . The distance was rowed by Claspor in about forty-two minutes .
