      The Doctor desired me to send the sum of £ 10 to Cobbett . I did so on March 24 th . Whether C-obbett " threwaway the money needlessly " or sot , is not for me to say , yet I ' have never been satisfied with his mode of doing business , as he never yet thought proper to send me a receipt for the money , which would have cost little . A short time ago , the Doctor wrote me to send another £ 10 to Cobbett , I refused to do SO until i ihe former was acknowledged . I took this cours * in order that the money of working men mi ^ ht not Be uselessly expended ; and I am now glad I thus I acted , as the remaining £ 10 is still available . i I wish Air . Cobbett to explain how the £ 10 he i received has been expended . It was public money and it js fair that Its appropriation should be pubj licly explained . r The Doctor says it will never be accounted for . I hope Mr . C . will strengthea his faith , and "ivo the subscribers satisfaction . Toure truly , ' "William Rider .

      LETTERS . " , ., TO THE WORKING CLASSES . LI . 11 Words are things , and a small drop of ink Falling—like dew—upon a thought , produces " That which makes thousands , perhaps millions , think . " - etbox .

      THE PEOPLE AGAIN INSULTEDTHE CHARTER ONCE MORE REJECTED . Brother , Proletarians , Notwithstanding all the quibbling of tlio individual commonly called Lord John Russell , you too well know that SLAVES you are ; the gentlemen . who sit in the Westminster Tax-trap have just declared—by an overwhelming . majority , and with accompanying circumstances of characteristic insult—that SLAVES you shallremam . The proceedings of the " Commons" on Tuesday eve , more than justified those of you who ( disdaining to acknowledge that House ) refused to petition in behalf of Mr . O' Coiraoit ' s motion . You -who did petition have been supplied , in return , with an additional stimulant to appeal to more effective measures .

      Mark the manner in which those who stand up in your behalf are treated by those calling themselves the " Representatives of the People ! " "WMlstMr . O'Coxnob , was speaking " an hon . member" moved that the Houes be counted , but it being found that more than forty members were present Mr . O'CONNOR was enabled to proceed with his speech . One of the papers states that justforty members was the number present . The debate proceeded , and , finally , THIRTEEN , with two tellers in addition , voted for the motion . That is to say , there being but forty members in the House , fifteen voted for , and twenty-five against the motion ; majority against the Charter—Ten . Not so fast . On turning to the report I find the majority against the motion , instead of Ten , numbered Two Hundred axd Nine . How came that to pass ? The " Times" shall

      answer : — The House then divided , when there appeared—For the motion ... 13 Against it ... ... ... ... 222 Majority against it 209 That is to say , some two hundred mem hers , or nearly so , voted against the motion , without having heard the reasons and arguments advanced in its behalf . ProbaWy most of these -worthy legislators were in the House hefore the precise moment of voting . I can imagine that those who refused to listen to the supporters of the motion , took their seats to give their applauding shouts to Lord Joux Russeix , and cry " hear , hear , " in response to his miserable Quibbles , and heartless perversions of

      the truth ; but they were not in the IIousc to listen to the arguments advanced in support of the act of justice demanded by the member for Nottingham . Indeed , I believe that but for the fact of the great party sham-fight got up by D'Isiiaeli , the night previous , and which was adjourned to Tuesday evemn" , Mr , O'Connor would have been " counted out . " The two hundred and twenty-two were hanging about the lobbies of the House , expecting to fitness a renewal of the grand set-to between' Buckingham Ben" and the " Bedford Pet ; " they were not there to discuss the Charter ; they had made up their minds to vote against the motion , even hefore Mr . O'Conxor rose from his seat . Though an angel from Heaven , or one raised from the dead , had

      been there instead of Mr . O'Connor to advocate vour cause , thctwohui . dred and twenty-two would not have been persuaded to admit the justness of your claims . * Honour to whom honouris due ! Sir . Hume— -though the acknowledged leader of the moderate section of Reformers—both spoke and voted for Mr . O' Coxsor's motion . It may be as well here to add the names of the rest or the minority : —T » . J . Fox , Jons GitEEXE , Lawrence Hetwohtii , Charles LusniNGiox , Lord Ncgext . John O'Consell , ( I ) Charles Bearso " , William Schol-efield , U . Xf . Taxcred , Colonel Tnonrsox , George Thompson , Sir Joshua WAtxisLEY , and the two tellers , Feargus O'CoxxonandSnABMAS Crawford .

      Let me call your attention to a curious fact : no list of the majority has appeared in the daily papers . By giving only the names of the minority , and withholding those of the majority , a double course of knaveiy is accomplished . On the one hand , those who , like ITeywortii , Ltjsiuxgton , Xogext , Tancred , and Waisislbt , have voted for the Charter , are , by the publication of their nanics , held xip to the ill-will of the anti-Chartist portion of their respective constituencies . On the other hand , by withholding the list of the majority , the working classes are left in doubt as to whether certain loudmouthed "friends" of theirs voted in opposition to Mr . O'Connor ' s motion , or were merely absent .

      But whether those precious , advocates of Reform gave a direct negative to the propositions of the Member for Nottingham , or merely skulkingly absented themselves from the House , they , in either case , did the work of your enemies . Those ivho arc not for « s ore against us . Amon « st those who , as " Parliamentary Reformers , recently supported Mr . IIkie , the following either voted against Mr . 0 ' Conxoh or were absent from the House—H . A . Agmoxby , M . T . Bass , C . L . 6 . Berkeley , E . P . Bouveuie , J . BRIGHT , « T . BROTHERTON , Sir W . Clay , R . COBDEN , C . T . D'Etxcoobt , Sir De L . Evans , W . Ewart , T . M . Gibson , Alderman Humphrey , Sir

      W . MOLESWORTH , G . F . MUXTZ . It . OSBOltNE , SirG . Stricklaxd , Lord D . Stuart , J . "WILLIAMS , and H . Berkeley . I have singled out only the most Radical (?) and best known of Mr . Hume's supporters . It is only fair to add , that illness may hare prevented the attendance of some of the absentees ; ill-will would , however , operate upon not a few of them ; and upon all who voted against the motion for the Member for Nottingham . "While giving the ' supporters of Mr . O'CoxxOR all due credit for their votes , I must add that an evident lack of earnestness was the crying sin of more than one oration delivered on the side of the motion . Xot inclined to be captiously critical , I will merely notice one point of one speech —that of Mr . Fox—who observed that , " Of all modes of Government which ever existed , he

      thought that" the very worst < vhich , to a certain extent , had prevailed in this country—he meant the accomplishment of ' improvements only by means of agitation . It withdrew men ' s minds from the topics on which they might most wholesomely be employed , and created jyrofessional agitatorsmen who lived li / that work , and were ready to stimulatc the people for tlieir mvupurposcs . ( near , hear , )" "What next ? * Really , the non . Member for Oldham must possess considerable powers of face . Imagine pot he-calling kettle , Satan denouncing Sin , or the late " Liberator" denouncing a spouting opponent as a disturber of the public peace ! Imagine these , and you will be able to estimate the modest assurance of the ox-lecturer and ex-Iieague orator and writer , standing unabashed in the presence of some of his late paymasters , denouncing " 2 > rofes . * ional agitators ! ! !"

      " Well , tvcIi , the world must turn upon its axis , And all mankind turn with it heads and tails . " In the course of my little time I have seen some strange turnings and twistings , and , doubtless , I shall see more yet . I have seen a certain wingerbeer orator abandoning the path of honest industry , assume " the style and title" of —¦ : r—— -, ESQ ., and by sheer force of brass and wind , achieved position amongst the " reverend" and the " respectable" of the land . He , too , calculates some day lie will add 1 I . P . to his ESQ . ; and he , too , when that day arrives , will , doubtless , join chorus with the hon . member for Oldham , in denouncing " professional agitators . " Heally these ' * patriots" are a " queer lot . To them may lie triiiiy applied the couplet recently launched at the "Whigs by the member for Middlesex—they . " Forget the dunghill where they grew , And think themselves ihe Lord knows who . "

      Want of space prevents me , on the present occasion , entering into a lengthy review of Lord Johx RcssEii ' s speech , which was chiefly remarkable for his laboured , though not very successful , attempt to divest himself of the title of "Finality Jack . " "While opposing Mr . O'Connor ' s motion , he reiterated his belief that "it-would be advantageous to the country if a greater number of the workin g classes were in possession of the Suffrage and able to take part in the election of representatives . " "Why not then introduce a measure embodying his own ideas of reform ? "Why pursue the "

      dog-inthc-manger policy of hindering others , and at the same time doing nothing himself towards effecting the work he admits should be performed by some one ? "Why ? Because he is jiot honest ; because his little lordship is fonder of playing at the game of political humbug , than of performing tha duties of a statesman , and the work of a legislator . The Premier ' s policy is to so play the artful dodger as to make the system last his time . " After me the deluge , is the belief to which he clings ; but were you of my mind , in his day—even at once—the waves of Democracy should rise , and sweep him and his crew to political perdition .

      I reserve for another occasion comment on the Pbime Minister ' s doctrines concerning capital and labour ; aid his denunciations of Red Republicanism , Socialism , &e . I will now only remark , that whilst repudiating the "Socialism , " pictured by the infamous Press . an £ which has no existence

      beyond the -rile joui * aals whose columns are filled with the vilest blasphemy against Justice and Truth , I , for one , speaking for myself only , avow ¦ hat to the " Socialism" expounded by such men as Loms Blaxc I am devoted heart and soul ; moreover , I am persuaded that , in spite of the sneers of Russell , and the calumnies of the horrible Pressgang , the Socialism of Eternal Justice will triumph ; Ay , triumph ! despite the pens of the moral assassins , and the sabres and grape-shot of the league of Europe ' s oppressors . % Lord J . Russell says you are not slaves . "What is a slave ? One whose labour and life arc at the mercy of another . That your labour is at the mercy of others needs no lengthy proof . You must work

      on the terms proposed by your " masters , " or you must die . From your labour is produced not merely your wages , but also the profits , rentals , pensions , salaries and emoluments enjoyed by the " superior classes . " Rents , profits , rates , taxes , tithes , are all drawn—directly or remotely—from your labour . These fiscal burdens , social and political , are imposed upon you in virtue of institutions and laws in the formation and enactment of which you have had no voice . " What are you then but slaves ? Queen , Lords , and Commons can , and do , pass laws to condemn you to imprisonment , transportation , and death , for certain offences ; also to compel you to risk your lives in defence of our " glorious institutions ; " yet in the enactment of these laws you have no voice . "What are you then but SLAVES ? But Lord Jons says you are proud of the liberties you enjoy ( the Lord forgive him )! That you have the right to flunk what you please ; no thanks to him

      for that ! More still , you have the right to express your thoughts ; yes , if Powell , and Davis , and Dobbi \ , and others of the Premier ' s friends , are not in the way to swear your expressions savour of disaffection , sedition , rebellion , and treason . Stillbetter , you are allowed to a « as you please—so long as you " conduct yourselves in conformity toitli , the laws . Ah ! there ' s the rub ! " Laws" which you have no voice in the making of—laws of which you reap the penalties , whilst the rich reap the benefits . Why ? Because the men of property elect the lawmakers , to the exclusion of you—the men of poverty . Though of 05 ( 5 members of the House of Commons only fifteen could ho found on the 3 rd of July to record their votes for the " six points ; " not dismayed , not , cast down , "bating not one jot of heart or hope , " we , Brother Proletarians , will raise louder than ever our rallying cry of the past—the presentand the future : — .-"The Charter and No Surrender .

      METROPOLITAN PARLIAMENTARY AND FINANCIAL REFORM ASSOCIATION . A public meeting of this association took place last night at the Princess ' s Theatre , which was filled to overflowing on the occasion . Sir Joshua "Walmsley , M . P ., presided , and in opening the proceedings congratulated the meeting on the presence of so many of the fair sex , and gallantly predicted the success of a cause to which they lent " their count enaucc . In the course of his address he referred to the triumph which the citizens of London had achieved far the cause of civil and religious liberty . He then launched out into an

      exposition of the various political principles advocated by the association , asserting , especially with reference to the state of our representative system , that it was in the hands of one fifth of the population , and that the other four-fifths were reduced to a state of moral slavery thereby . The first resolu : ion was moved by Mr . J . A . Nicholay , who recommended a union with the Chartists , on the priuciole that tbey should take all they could screw out of a reluctant legislature . He also expressed his opinion that we could do very well without an army , since we permitted France to attack Rome , and Austria and Russia to overwhelm the brave Hungarians .

      Mr . Hums was the next speaker , and commenced by saying that the meeting reminded him of former assemblages in the parish of Marylebone , when not only 4 , 000 and 5 , 000 , but 20 , 000 people met peaceably together to agitate for reform , and he predicted a similar successful result for the association to that which , crowned the efforts made seventeen or eighteen years ago . It was to the divisions which : existed among them that larger measures of reform had not long ere now been adopted . Conscious of that fact , some members of the House of Commons railed on their lellow-subjects to meet . and show that the people required more control over their own affairs , instead of being dictated to by the few who were now placed in power . That course they were determined to follow . They hoped to have the union of tho middle-class elector with the mass of the people , and with that view the association was acting , The

      repeal of the Corn Laws had , he was sorry to say , led to apathy , instead of increased exertion . The discussion of last night , however , had opened their eyes . He had drawn up the Charter , but he could tell them , as the" result of his experience , that all reforms to be effoctual must be carried by the great mass of the people , and while he bated not a jot of his or iginal opinions he was willing to take as much as he could get . In the House of Commons last night the Minister of the day said , he thought the suffrage might be extended to the working-classes , but he saw no call for it . He ( Mr . Hume ) called on the meeting to show Lord John Russell that there was a demand for the extension of the franchise , and that it was necessary to meet the existing discontent by placing the legislature of the country on a broader , a more popular , and more secure basis . For many years their representative system had been at the top of the ladder—it was now at the bottom . He had

      stated in Parliament that those who had no voice m the government of the country were nearly slaves , and he repeated now , that from 4 , 000 , 000 to 5 , 000 , 000 of the people were in that condition . D ° what he and his friends might in parliament , their efforts were useless , and until the constitution of the House of Commons was changed there was no hope for their cause . As an old and experienced reformer —not a milk-and » water reformer—he had great pleasure in supporting the resolution before them . The next speaker was Lord Dudley Stuart . . He spoke at considerable length , and promised his steadfast co-pperation in the objects , of the . associa-

      ion . He was followed by J . Williams , M . P ., Mr . J . Casseli ,, and Mr . Mackay-Mr . F . O'Conn-oh , M . P ., saidttfs was the first time he had ever addressed a middle-class meeting . Without abandoning a single principle that he had advocated for a quarter of a century , he sought to allay any antagonism which might tend to continue the predominance of the aristoc atic class . ( Cheers . ) He was the more induced to this course from the conviction of the sincerity of Mr . Hume , and other leaders of this , movement , who had supported his motion in the House the preceding night . ( Hear . ) He would never be branded with stopping the working classes from obtaining their rights , and would consent to accept them in instalmentsbut he was

      ; convinced that until the whole of the Charter was obtained , financial reform would be a bag of moonshine . ( Hear , hear . ) He was satisfied his character was dear , to the working classes , and he knew that he should not lose their confidence bv the coir e he now pursued . While the association pursued the course it had marked out he should offer it no opposition ; he hoped , the working classes would offer none ; but tiU the labour question was solved , and the industrious artisan could live comfortably by the sweat ot his brow , the condition of the country would never be satisfactory . Every man , except those who read the , Times ,. whose only object was to misleadevery reader of the Daily . Nam , which e ntained the

      best completion of intelligence , both foreign and domestic—knew that this was the question which was now starring the whole of Europe ; and , until the feudal system was broken down , the working classes would never obtain then-full rights . In alluding to he debate of the preceding night , and the course taken by Lord John Russell , the hon . gentleman observed that his lordship was thesmallest man both in mind and body that he had ever seen for nothing . ( Laughter . ) In conclusion , he declared that he would sooner abandon life itself than abandon a single point of the People ' s Charter . ( Cheers . ) Mr . H . Hetheuington also addressed the meeting . The proceedings ' terminated with a vote of thanks o the chairman .

      with a request that she would take care oi it for a few minutes while she went out to speak to a person a short distance off ; she then quitted the place , and did not return . Applicant was desirous of having the magistrate's opinion as to what she should do with the child , as she had no home of her own , and was in the greatest distress . ^—Mr . Broughton , from the replies which she made to several questions put hy him , was inclined to imagine that she and the . other female had acted in concert , in order that tho parish might be burdened with the child ' s maintenance . —The applicant was directed to take the infant to the workhouse , and make known to the relieving officer tho way in which it came into her possession .

His duty was to see coals sent out , and to receive money from parties who drew the coals . He was also allowed to receive money of persons from whom he got orders . Tho course of business was , that he should enter all monies received in the course of the day , and account for them at nig ht .

Bail was refused , and ha was convoyed to the Comptoi . Ciunm . —Lieut .-General Sir ¦ William Paterson presented a sovereign to Mr . Alderman Garden for the poor-box of this court .

Having secured the prisoner : V ^ ho was standing a few paces oft ) ho

      assisted ; thc others in conveying the Lady to her bedroom , and the family surgeon was at once sent for , who pronounced her to havo been so dreadfully injured about the head and abdomen that it was impossible at present to form an opinion as to her recovery . —Mrs . M . llcynolds , the landlady of the house whore tho occurrence took place , stated that the prisoner and his wife had for some time occupied her furnished drawing-room and otker apartments , and . that at a late hour on the preceding night the former returned home in a state of partial intoxication , tho first intimation they had of his arrival-being his hurling a stone through his wife ' s : chamber window . The ; door was opened , as quickly as possible , and the prisoner proceeded to the bedroom , but he had only been

      there a , few minutes when witness was alarmed by the sound of blows , and loud screams from the wife , which were almost immediately succeeded by a heavy fall upon the floor . Witness instantly hastened into the room , where she found his wife lying upon the ground , and . the prisoner standing over her with one of his hands entangled in her hair . Witness succeeded with some difficulty in extricating her from his grasp , and was supporting her to a chair , when the prisoner made a violent attack upon his wife , and after striking her repeatedly in the iiiee , knocked her back into the chair , when she became stunified . and whilst witness was attending

      her , he struck her three or four other blows with such force that she was reduced to a state of complete insensibility . Tho pr isoner then retreated down stairs , and went out , and , after the lapse of some time , she succeeded in restoring tho injured woman to consciousness , and supported her down stairs , with the intention of protecting her in her own bedroom for the rest of the night , but , upon reaching the passage , the prisoner returned to the house , and immediately commenced a third attack upon his wife , striking her repeatedly , till she again fell in a nearly senseless state in the passage , when he kicked her violently on the lower part of

B . Shaw , surgeon of the Cambridgeroad , which described the'lady as suffering from serious injuries inflicted upon the head and abdomen , and ' dfielared her to be in a state which precluded the possibility of her removal . —When called upon for his defence , the prisoner said he had been

      out for some hours , and that on his return his wife , who was of a very jealous disposition , accused him of passing the evening with some other woman , which so greatly exasperated him that , after some words between them , and ho being in a state of intoxication at the time , ho certainly struck her , but had no recollection whatever of having either beaten or kicked her in the exaggerated manner described by the landlady on the second occasion . —Mr .

      was a violent struggle between him and the prisoner and some other persons before this could be effected . When , however , the unfortunate man had been secured , it appeared that the prisoner struck him with a rope and . also smacked his face , and although there was no doubt that he was at the time excited by the struggle and cpuld not control his temper , yet the commissioners felt that his conduct was unjustifiable , and that he had no right to inflict personal violence upon any unfortunate person in such a condition , and had , therefore , considered it their duty to prefer this indictment as a caution to others .

It was clearly proved that the prisoner had received the sums named in the indictment from different customers , and that ho never accounted for'them , but it appeared that when he was taken into custody fee justified his proceeding , and declared that no was a partner of tho prosecutor . This , however , was

      positively denied by Mr .

      THE BRIG CHARLES BARTLETT , OF LOKDON , HUN DOWN . —ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY LIVES LOST . We regret to record a serious collision between the Europa , on her homeward voyage , and tho brig Charles Bartlett , of London , which resulted in the latter being run down , and in the loss of 130 lives . CAPTAIN \ VM . BAMLKTT !! STATEMENT . The Charles Bartlett was a first-rate ship , of 400 tons register . She left the Downs , from London , bound to New York , on the 14 th of June , with a general heavy cargo , of about 450 tons weight , and 102 passengers in the steerage , one cabin passenger , and fourteen souls of the crew . Had fine weather , with light easterly winds , . up to tho 19 th . From that time to the 27 th had S . W . and W . winds , and foggy weather . At noon it cleared up a little . Observed the lat . 50 de # . 4 S deg . N ., and estimated the

      long , at 29 dog . W .- ; all well on board , and everything looking prosperous . Soon after noon a dense fog sot in , wind "W . by S . ship heading to the S . W ., close hauled , all sail set . At three o ' clock ' ordered a good look-out from the topgallant forecastle ; also directed the man at the wheel to look sharp to windward . At 3 30 p . m ., being on the weather side of the poop deck , heard a rumbling to windward like distant thunder ; turned my ear to windward , and my eye to the horizon . The man at the wheel noticing that I was listening , looked to windward , und cried out , " Sail , ho ! " . I at once saw what I supposed was a ship about one point forward of our beam , about 400 yards distant-. I ordered the helm un . thinking if . she did not discover us that we

      should have time to clear her before she could come into contact . All hands shouted at tlae same time to alarm the ship , and I ordered the boll to be rung , and called to the ship to "port her helm , " as I saw that was the only chance of escape . There was nearly one hundred passengers on deck at the time . AH was of no use , for in one minute from the time we saw the ship she was upon us , going at the rate of twelve' knots , striking us abreast of the after main : shrouds . The crash and the terrible * scene that , ensued I am not adequate to describe . I was knocked to leeward with the man at the wheel . I recovered myself in a moment , shouting for ¦ erery

      person . to cling to the steamer as their only hope ; I caught hold of a broken chain on the bow , and hauled myself up , shouting at the same time to the crew and passengers to follow . I had barely timo to get on the steamer ' s bow , and , while getting up , I noticed that her bow was into tho . ship within a foot of the after hatch , and that she was stove clear to . the lee side , and that full twenty feet of her side was stove in . There must have been nearly fifty persons killed by the collision . Every exertion was made by Captain Lott , his officers , and crew and the passengers on board the steamer . The boats were lowered as soon as possible . Unfortunately only about ten were saved by the boats , the

      balance , making thirty-three , saved themselves by hanging to the bow . The steamer lay by the scene a 3 ? ., ? there was any hope of saving any . Of tho crew , Ihomas Parker , of Charleston , S . C ., aged 22-George Parsons , of Portland , Maine , aged 18 ; and W A |?^ G ti avesend ' England , aged 25 , were lost . A lwt of the passcngors and crew saved , will be found beta * . We were most hospitably enter-Kteamor °° ' ° fficerS > and P assen S ers of I will notice that all due exertion was used by ? & ^ i !^ l !^*« the Europa

      » as well as all the passengers . I particularly observed one passenger using the most noble exertions I saw him let himself overboard , and clench a man in his awns , and , finding him dead , let him go . I next saw him on tho bow of a boat , hauling a man , from under water with a boathook , who was afterwards restored to life on board . I afterwards found that person to be Captain R . B . Forbes , of Boston , I cannot express myself as I feel for the noble and generous conduct of all on board in contributing to the wants of the surviving sufferers , and for the sympathy felt by all , particularly by the ladies .

      MURDER AT ENPIELD . On Sunday afternoon tho usually quiefc village of Enfield was thrown into a state of excitement , in consequence of a report that a murder had been committed at Chase Lodge , on the borders of Entield-chase , now in the occupation of a gentleman named Buller , a solicitor , of the firm of Bullev and Smart , of tho Temple . On making inquiries , it was found that the butlev in the service of Mi . Buller had been stabbed to the heart by lus wife in a paroxysm of jealousy . It appears that the unfortunate man , whoso name is John Cork , had . been in the service of Mr . Buller , as footman and butler , for the last two years , lie was a married man and had one child six months old . At tho time

      of his entering the service oi Mr . Buller he represented himself to be a single man , while his ^ vife was living at 20 , Napier-street , City-terrace , Cityroad . She had never visited him at his situation ; but he was in the habit of communicating with her by letter . She was extremely jealous of him , and had been the cause of his losing several good situations ; but since the birth of their child she had bchaved better towards him , and appeared to havo recovered from her fits of jealousy . On Friday last he wrote a letter to her couched in the most affectionate terms , and stated that he was very glad to hear that she had got rid of those delusions , which were the cause of so much nnhappiness , and begged of her , for tho sake of the dear child , not to embitter their future happiness by entertaining suck

      linfounded fears of his inconstancy . He also stated in his letter , in answer to an application for more money , that he was unable to send her a further sum as his wages were not due , and that he was quite certain that she had not expended the last £ 8 , which she had received only a short time since . Ho posted this letter on the afternoon of the same day , and he did not receive any answer to it , but on Sunday afternoon ho was surprised by his wife appearing at his master ' s house , with her child in her arms . He had just finished his dinner , and he asked her into the house . After conversing together for some time in the pantry , and caressing the child , ho went up stairs and called tho nurse maid , who was the only servant in the house ( the remainder of the

      domestics having gene to church ) , to come and see his child . He returned to the pantry , and in about five minutes afterwards the nurse maid , in passing from the Kitchen into the pantry , saw the butler lying upon tho ground near tlie door . She immediately exclaimed to the wife , who was standing by his side , intently looking at him , " Is John in a fit ? " The wife replied in a . loud voice , "No , it is something worse than that—I havo done it . " Tho nurse-maid 'became alarmed at the strange and peculiar appearance of the wife , and on looking at the prostrated man she perceived blood on the front of his shirt . She instantly ran out of the house and raised an alarm , and when several of the neighbours entered the house they found the wjfc standing hi

      the same place where the nurse-maid had left her , still looking at her husband , who appeared lifeless . Sergeant Collins , of the If division , arrived soon afterwards , and immediately ¦ sent a messenger for a surgeon , whose son instantly attended , and found the butler in a dying state . The surgeon opened Jiis waistcoat and shirt , and' discovered a deep incised wound on tho leftside , immediately over tho heart . The wound , which was in a slanting dircc--lion , was " about-an inch and a Lalfin length . On searching tho pantry a sharp pointed dosurt knifo was found lying in the sink , stained with blood , and on being shown to the surgeon he at once said it corresponded with the wound . The unfortunate man expired in a few minutes after the arrival of

      the surgeon . The wife remained in the pantry motionless all this time , and made no effort to escape . After the body was placed on a bed , and the surgeon had given opinion that , the deeGiised could not hava inflicted sucli a wound himself , Sergeant Collins took the wife into custody , and removed her to the police station at Knficld . She made no confession , ncr eyen once alluded to her husband . On the following morning the unfortunate woman was taken before Mr . Williams , county magistrate , at Enfield . After the evidence , the magistrate remanded the woman for further examination , and to afford the polico an opportunity of procuring fresh witnesses . On Monday evening , at eight o ' clock , Mr .

      Thomas Higgs , the coroner for the Duchy of Lancaster , opened the inquest before a highly respectable jury , at the Old Sergeant" Tavern , Chase-side , Enfield . The jury viewed the body , which was lying upon a bud in the pantry ,-where the tragical occurrence took place . On tlieir return to the inquest-room , the Coroner said it was impossible to proceed any further with the case at that late hour ; and as there must necessarily be a 2 > ost mortem examination of the body , it would be advisable to adjourn the inquiry until a future day . The inquiry was accordingly adjourned . The inquest-room was crowded to excess , and the unfortunate occurrence has created the most intense interest . The wife stoutly denies that she committed the deed .

      At the adjourned inquest on Wednesday the Jury returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against Caroline Cork . " . " ' . " . The coroner having bound over all the witnesses , issued his warrant for the nonimitial of the prisoner ( o Newgate .

      THE LAND MOVEMENT . ' _ On Monday evening a public meeting of tho inhabitants of St . Pancras was held in the new vestryroonis , King ' s-road , Camden Town , for the purpose of aiding the freehold land movement for the obtaining ireeholds and votes in the home counties , under tho auspices of the St . Paneras Freehold Land Association . Mr . J . Williams , M . P ., occupied tho chair , and at least from 1 , 000 to 1 , 500 persons were assembled . On the platform were observed Lord Dudley Stuart , M . P . for the borough ; Mr . W . Williams , lato M . P . for Coventry ; Mr . Taylor , from Birmingham , who had attended to explain the operation of the movement in the midland counties ; James Clark , Esq . ; W . Dyke , Esq . ; S . Stockton , Esq ., and a large number of the leading and influential

      men of this great district . Mr . W . Williams moved tho first resolution , to the effect that divisions upon all popular questisns in the House of Commons prove that the people have no hope in its present state , while Marylebone , Finsbury , Lambeth , Tower Hamlets , Manchester , and Glasgow , " with nearly two millions of inhabitants , are completely neutralised by Thetfbrd , Harwich , Eipon , Chichester , Cricklade , and Chippenham . The unenfranchised , however , in large towns having the power in their own hands , if they liked to use it—let them at once join these Freehold Land Societies , and prove by their endeavour to obtain the privilege of voting for a representative they deserve to possess it .

      Lord Dudley Stuart , M . P ., dwelt at some length on the advantages which he conceived must result from such a movement ; and some allusions made by him to the motion of Mr . Hume , as opposed to Mr . Disraeli , and the contest for the city of London in favour of Baron Rothschild , elicited the warmest plaudits . The City contest was not merely a question of civil and religious liberty , but ono whether the House of Peers should or should not dictate to an enlightened constituency who should represent tliem . He expressed a hope that all the liberal electors of Marylcbono who had votes for tho City , would accompany him ( the noble lord ) to the poll at oixrht o ' clock on Tuesday morning , and record them

      for Baron llothsehild . ( Tremendous cheering . ) The noble lord concluded by suggesting that the operations of the association should be extended to tho borough of Marylobono . ( Cheers . ) Mr . Dtke moved the second resolution , c-xprossivo of an opinion that freehold land societies were the simplest and most efficient means of extending the suffrage and breaking down class legislation ¦ and political exclusiveness , whilst they promote the social happiness and enhance the domestic comfort of the working classes . This resolution was also carried ncra . con ., and other gentlemen having addressed the meeting , several Hundred members were enrolled , and the meeting terminated at a late hour .

      NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF UNITED TRADES . TO THE EDITOR OF THE KORTHEnij STAR . Sir , —As an appropriate corollary upon the Chancellor of the Exchequer ' s flourishing exaggeration as to the improved condition of the working classes , consequent upon the Free Trade legislation of the present ministry , I beg to forward you an extract from last "Wednesday ' s " Manchester Guardian , " as to the condition of the Counterpane Weavers of Bolton . The Counterpane "Weavers . —Notwithstanding the fact that the manufacture of counterpanes is confined to Bolton and the neighbourhood , the trade has been depressed for some time to a great degree , and wages have sunk so low that weavers with families , even when in work , can scarcely- earn sufficient for subsistence . Under this state of things ,

      some of their body called a pieeting , in the open air , on Monday , to take into consideration the propriety of ceasing to work altogether at that trade unless better wages could be obtained . About 250 weavers were present , and the meeting was adjourned to the Grown Inn , where the subjectwas discussed , and a majority decided that ic would be best to cease work , as they could not live by what they earned . It was stated , that in two years wages had been reduced to the extent of 7 s . in the pound ; and that now a man could not earn more than 4 s-. Cd . from a hard week ' s work . After this meeting-, however , better councils prevailed ; and upon the weavers being waited upon , and their opinions deliberately taken , their decision was , that , bad as the trade is , they must work to support their families *

      It will strike many of your readers as being singular why this particular department of manufacture should he so deplorably paid , seeing that the causes usually assigned " for low wages are in this case absent . The manufacture of counterpanes is confined to Bolton and neighbourhood . There is , therefore , neither the competition of machinery , nor that of foreign nations , or of other towns to contend against ; but the sole cause of these men heiug so miserably paid , arises from their want of union . Two years ago , an intelligent member was lamenting to the writer the gradual decadence of this trade from the causes I have assigned , at the . same ' time assuring me that the men , if united , might command any amount of wages they chose to aslc . I will just state one fact which may perhaps meet the eye of somo-of these men through your valuable columns .

      There is in the neighbourhood of Bolton , a body of Twist Bleachers , who , from the fact of it being known that they belong to the National Association of United Trades , are receiving from 3 s . 6 d . to Ss . per week higher wages than is paid to any other men of the same trade ill the locality . Surely , Mr . Editor , facts like these must eventually arouse the dormant faculties of the apathetic , and beat down the prejudices of those who would obstruct the progress of so useful an institution . I am , sir , yours respectfully , ¦ WiLLiwi Peel , Sec .
