      10 THE EDITOS OF THE NORTHERN STAR , i Sir , —In accordance with the * uggestion of a good : friend to the cause of Chartism , I here send you a few ; line * on the state of the districts I have visited sinoe my entry into ' bonnie Scotland , " hoping that it may have the effect of causing some to stand firm in the ¦ faith , and sparring others to greater exertion . The beginning of my laV > urs in Scotland was at Kelso , where the Duke of Roxburgh has a fine seat . I found no association , no organization , and only about f « ur or five persons who could be called active Cbari tists . I had no intention to lecture there at first , but through the solicitations of our few friends I did so . We sent the bellman round , and got up a good meeting , on a nice green . I was well received by the audience . I pressed on them the great necessity of organizing themselves , and meeting weekly in friesdly communion together . They promised me , at parting , they would set about it ; the following week I saw , by Jour . Star , they have done so . Thus my labour has not been

      r . j After having given my word to come and pay them , another visit , in about three weeks , 1 bent my steps to - Edinburgh . I there sought out the friend I was : directed to , and found him a shuttle-maker , a Char-. tist , and a philosopher ; a man who has earned fame by bis researches as a geologist , and has adorned the ; Mechanics ' Institution by appearing as a lecturer on that sublime science . He told me plainly that the peo-; pie were nearly all either Sturgitea , or Corn-Law : Repealers ; that the noted Brewster was a native of the lows , and that if I s * id anything against the views of either rf toe two parties , he doubted whether I should ( jet a hearing ; but , if I did speak publicly , to " draw it mild . " Every body knows ( who know me ) that I am not very rash ; but I made up my mind to exert myself in proportion to the difficulties of my task .

      The extension of trade and cheap bread humbug , I , entered into at some leDgth , and 1 was heard patieDtly ; and often applauded . Then I brought on the Charter , , the whole Charter , and its name along with it , so that they might know it was not a bastard . If there was , any Corn Iaw Repealers there , or Sturgites , they beld that discretion was the best part of valour , for they " hid their candles under bushels , " aad I have left them ! all tkeir work te begin again , with this difference , that ¦ the same birdlime won't stick a second time . My friend confessed he had never looked at the question of i cheap bread in the light I bad placed it before , and with the rest of the audience determined to go for the | People ' s Charter , by which alona the labourer can : expect protection for his industry .

      \ I shall take up no more of your Taluable paper this week , as a short communication can find a placo where a long one cant ; but this I will say , there has eithtr ¦ been some base treachery or gross neglect te cause tccb I a lukewannness on the part of our people—it Las bt * n \ all np-hill with me so far , but I know I have made ray footing firm , and as I shall have to go over the ground aga : n , the suiface will be ready smoothed . i Tours , Thos . Dickinson . ; 291 , C » nnonjjate , Edinburgh , ; May 1 , 1843 .

      NtWCASTtB . —A general meeting ot delegates from the principle mining districts of Great Britain was held in tae Rose and Crown Inn , New Road , Newcastle , on Mo-day . At the appointed hour ( ten o ' clock ) the president , Mr . Wild , of Yorkshire , took the chair . The objects for which they had met having been declared , each delegate gave an account of the number of members of the society in their respective localities , at tbe same time paying in the contributions of their constituents to the general funds of the society . Amongst the great body of delegates present we observed that one represented , each of the tollowing collieries , namely , —AAwalton , Bricklayer ' s Arms , Osmondthorp , Leeds district , Wool Pack , Catherine Slack , Elland , Halifax district ; Ossett-street-aide , Wakefield district ;

      Daw Green , Dewsbury district ; Seghill , West Moor , Walker , SL Lawrence , East Cramlington , Weiit Cramlington , Sheriff-bill , Pemberton's , Kenton , Seaton Burn , Jarrow , King Pit Wreckenton , Gosforth , Spring well , Washington , Ouston , South Elswick , Netherton , Sleekburn , Cowpen , Hebburn , Fawden , Axolose , Blaydon Main , Wylam , Bracken Beds , Spital Tongues , East Holywell , West Hellywell , North Elswick , Radcliff Terrace , Wingate , Thornley , Cassop , Quarrington Hill , Coxhoe , Haswell , Kylloc , Shincliffe , Bacriston , Ellamore , North Hetton , Deanery , South Church , Byer ' a Green , West Auckland , Evenwoed , Leasingthorn , Whitworth , Copy Crooks , Sheldon Banks , Edmonsley , Cragghead , Oxhill , Walbridge FeU , Marley Hill , Woodhouse Close , and various other districts in Scotland .

      The monies having been paid in by the delegates from each locality , and the real state of the society ascertained , which was very favourable Indeed , new societies being formed daily , and the former ones greatly augmented in numbers , tbe General Secretary submitted a balance sheet of the income and expences from the commencement of tbe society , which after being duly discussed , was adopted by the meeting . The President of the society produced the balance sheet of the Parent Society , from the commencement , which was likewise passed . The District Secretary for the Wear and South Durham , submitted a balance sheet of the income and and expenditure of that district , which after being discussed was adopted also . The General Seoretary then announced that in accordance with instructions which

      he received at a previous meeting , he submitted tbe rules to the inspction of Feargua O'Connor , Esq ., and the Editor of the Star , who each pronounced them in perfect accordance with law ( providing tbe 17 ch article was omitted ) , and he now held in his hand tbe corrected copy returned to him by those gentlemen . Yet although be was perfectly satisfied a& to the legality , he would suggest some trifling alteration which would not at all interfere in a legal point of view . Mr . Brophy contended that notwithstanding tbe high authority upon which the secretary oonfided , be thought ihat some of the articles were very ambiguous , and might be construed into being contrary to law , in the event of a prosecution being raised

      against the soctety—he Vvouid therefore suggest another code of rules to the consideration of the delegates . Mr . Martin Jade , proposed a third code , each of which was duly seconded , and a lengthy discussion ensued on the relative merits of each code , when it was agreed that a committee of nine be now appointed to consider each , and select a complete serifs of rules to be submitted for the adoption of the delegates . The following gentlemen were then appointed , v z , Messrs . D . Swallow . B Eiubleton , Thos . Grei-ves , Thos . Smith , Samuel Mann , Martin Jude , P . M . Brophy , and Alex . Stoves . The committee then retired to consider the rules , and the delegates having disposed of a good deal of local busine ^ s , adjourned at eight o ' clock , until ^ half-past nine o ' clock on Tuesday morning .

      THE FUNERAL OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF SUSSEX . ( From ihe London Papers of Thundag . J The funeral of His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex took place this morning , with all the honours and ceremony due to his exalted rank , though , as his remains were interred in a public cemetry , the obsequies did not present all the state and pageantry of a Royal interment . Some rain had fallen in the night , and as the early part of the morning was dull and gloomy , some apprehensions were fait lest the weather should prove unfavourable during the marshalling the procession and its progress to the tomb ; but as the hours wore on , the sun Bhone brilliantly and a brighter or

      more lovely May morning never sned its beauty on the groves and avenues of Kensington than that which gave to tbe dust the remains of him who so long dwelt among them , honoured and beloved by all . The ceremony of lying id state closed yesterday afternoon at four o ' clock , and in the few hours during which the public were admitted , no less than 25 , 000 persons passed through the chamber of state . Along the line of road through which the procession was expected to pass , the most extensive preparations had been made for the accommodation of of the public , far more extensive indeed than the quasi private character of the funeral would seem to warrant . The scaffoldings and galleries raised at every point at which a view could be obtained were , it was calculated , capable of holding 10 , 000 persons .

      In the Palace the preparations for the funeral were all completed at an early hour . A body of the A division of police were in attendance , under the direction of Inspector May , and by their exertions the greatest good order was observed , notwithstanding the arrival of the carriages that joined the melancholy procession . These arrivals commenced as early as a quarter to seven o'clock , and continued till nearly eight . Wo have given the names of the nobility , gentry , officers of the Royal Household , &c , who attended the funeral , in their proper place , in the order of the procession . Lord J . Russell and Lord Ho wick arrived in the same carriage at a quarter past seven ; Lord Morpeth and Lord Palmerston came somewhat later ; they each appeared in the Windsor uniform .

      Soon after seven o ' clook the Duke of Cambridge alighted from his carriage ; he wore a mourning oloak , with the star and collar of the Order of the Garter . His Royal Highness was accompanied by Colonel Keate and Baron Knesebeck . As the company alighted at tho grand entrance , they were received in the hall by the heralds , Mr . Ashton Blunt and Mr . Pullman , in full costume . The Duke of Wellington rode up some time before the procession was formed , but his Grace did not alight ; he remained in his carriage till the head of the line moved on , when the horses were ordered forward , but what place the Duke occupied in the cortege we were unable to ascertain , or even , whether be joined it at all .

      At tea minutea before eight , two troops of the Royal Horse Guards arrived , under tho command of Captain Pitt ; the band of the regiment accompanied them with the kettle-drums muffled with crape . They drew up in line in front of the entrance . The Royal carriages that attended the funeral had taken their place in the avenue which joins the road leading ! up to tho entrance , ready to fall into their proper place in the line as it moved off . At eight o ' clock the bead of the line began Us progress , tho whole filing from the entrance in the following order : A detachment of Cavalry , aud a Military Band . A Mourning Coach , drawn by four horses , in which

      were tha Pages of his late Royal Highness . A Mournieg Coach , drawn by six horses , in which were Dr . Chambers and Dr . Holland , the Medical Attendants of his late Royal Highness . A Mourning Coach , drawn by six horses , in which were the Medical Attendants , &o . of his late Royal Highness .

Hebiler .

      The mournful procession moved along Churchlane , through the Queeu ' s-road , into the Uxbridgeroad , until it reached the Harrow-road . The utmost order prevailed amongst the vast multitude whioh had assembled , and each individual seemed to be impressed with a sense that he had lost a kind and valued advocate and friend . Like soldiers' funerals—after the last sad rites had been observed , those who at first seemed to feel the deepest , gave way to the desire for creature comforts —for all along the lins of road , from the Cemetery ,

      the itinerant hawkers of ginger-beer , bottled porter , and such like , appeared to be reaping a rich harvest . The procession , when seen approaching from a distance , presented a most striking and picturesque appearance , with the long line of carriages gradually breaking on the view , and the plumes of the hearse waving above tbe casques of the military escort . A slight accident delayed its march at the commencement of the Queen ' s-road ; a horse , attached to one of the mourning coaches , became restive ; but the animal was soon removed and the procession continued to advance .

      The whole way was throughout lined with a dense mass of people : and the crowd , though somewhat noisy , as crowds must ever be , while awaiting the arrival of the procession , maintained at its approach the deepest silence . The conduct of the people was indeed most orderly H was remarkable for the absence of any vulgar vioKM 5466 or excess , and was in every way suited to the si ^ l ^ an occasion . At h tif'P&st ten o ' clook the procession reached the Cemetei Y « where the most popular Prince of the House of Brunswick had chosen a grave among the people .

      K ENSA"I ^ GREEN—THE CEMETERY . Admission to tbo Cemetery was only obtained by means of tickets >« e « ed by the General Cemetery Company . Ho ona *" admitted to the Cemetery after eight o ' clock lWb morning . As early as five o ' clock large bodies or the police were seen proceeding up the Edgw » re-rt * o , towards Kensal Green , and atsixthewholeof i « e Harrow-road , from the Uxbridge-road to the ga * e * of the Cemetery was lined on each side by the po- icemen . The road , even as early as six o'clock , was thronged by carriages , cartB . cabs , vans , and vehicles of every description , all loaded v » ith persons attired in deep mourning , proceeding towards the Cemetei T . The number of pedestrians was not so great asw . ' ' had expected to see . All along the road there were p . ' atfonas , stages , and booths , in the process of erection and notices were conspicuously placarded at almosv every house along the route , informing the public ( hat they could be accommodated with seats to view the procession . The general urice demanded for a seat

      was 5 a . The public were admitted to the Cemetery through the upper gateway . Polieemen were stationed ^ t the entrances to the different avenues for the purpose of preventing visitors from wandering over the grounds A large space , sufficient it was said to accommodate 40 , 000 persons , was barricaded off in front of the chapel , and wiihin this space the publio

      Untitled Article

      was accommodated . The exterior of the chapel , and of the two cloisters adjoining it , were hang with black cloth . The cloisters were fitted up as anterooms , and , like the interior of the chapel , were hung with superfine black oloth . There was scarcely sufficient space within ihe chapel for the accommodation of th « mourners Through the kindness of one of the gentlemen connected with the Cemetery we were enabled to obtain admission to the chapel before the procession arrived , bat after the internal arrangements had been completed . The whole of the interior , with the exception of the fluted column , was hung with black ,

      and light was admitted through the painted window at the end . The effect produced by the reflection of this coloured light from the elegant roof of the ohapet , on the | blaok hangings , was extremely picturesque and beautiful . In the centre of the chapel was the descending bier , on which the coffin was placed , and which is lowered by machinery , into the catacombs below , where the coffin was removed from it and deposited , until the mausoleum shall be prepared for its reception . The machinery for lowering this descending bier is of admirable construction . At the proper period of the service , the bier with the coffin descends into the catacombs below witho t

      noise . So admirably does the machinery work , that not even a click is heard . This is a great improvement in the working of this machine , which is of recent introduction . A handsome canopy of blaok cloth , ornamented with velvet and plumes was erected over the bier . All the seats in the chapel were hung with black cloth . Beneath tho painted window , and consequently immediately at the head of the coffin , was an escutcheon of the Royal Arms . Up to seven o ' clock but few persons had arrived at the cemetery but between seven and eight they poured in rapidly

      by eight o ' clock upwards of 10 , 000 persona were assembled within the barricades in front of the chapel . The assistants of Mr . Banting , the undertaker , arrived about seven o ' clock , and proceeded at or . ee to complete the necessary arrangements in the chapel and catacombs . The carriage of Colonel Tynte , one of his Royal Highnesses ^ executors arrived at eight o ' clock , and remained in waiting until afcer the ceremony was over . Shortly after eight o ' clock , Sir C . Young , Garter Principal King at Arms , arrived in full uniform and proceeded at once to the chapel .

      Shortly before nine o'clock M'Kay , the piper of his late Royal Highness , arrived , and took his station , in the cloisters . He was immediately followed by a detachment of the 1 st Grenadier Guards , which , having formed at the centre of the avenue , filed off to the right , and eventually took up their position iu front of the cloisters adjoining the chapel . The ; were accompanied by the ensign of the regiment bearing the regimental colours . At nine o ' clock the Lieutenant-Colonel , the Major , and the Adjutant of the Hon . Artillery Company arrived , and were set down at the entrance to the Chapel . They were immediately followed by the Right Hon . the Earl of Delawarr , the Lord Chamberlain , who arrived in a carriage drawn by four

      greya . The Right Rev . the Bishop of Norwich arrived also at nine o ' clock , and followed the Earl of Delawarr into the chapel . From this hour those having the right of entree into the Chapel continued to arrive in rapid succession . Amongst the earliest arrivals we noticed Sir Edward Knatchbull , the Duke of Buccleugh , the Earl of Denbigh , Lord Wharncliffe , the Lord Chancellor , Sir H . Hardinge , Lord Stanley , the Chancellor of the Exchequer , Sir R . Peel , the Duke of Devonshire , Sir John Dean Paul , Lord Ingestrie , Sir W . Martins , Deputy Chamberlain , Earl Jersey , Master of the Horse , < &c . The Lord Chamberlain shortly after his arrival engaged in conversation with Colonel Stanhope , the officer in command of the detachment of the

      Grenadier Guards , and immediately afterwards the detachment was inarched front its station along the cloisters , and drawn up immediately in front of the barricades , so as completely to obstruct the view of the publio . This alteration was met with loud cries of " Shame , shame ! " by those assembled , and on his Lordship perceiving the effect of stationing them in front of the barricades , he immediately communicated with Colonel Stanhope , when they were ordered to resume their former position . The order gave gre « t satisfaction to all the spectators present . At half-pant nine precisely the bell of the cemetery began to toll , announcing that the procession had left the Palace , and continued to toll every minute until the ceremony was completed .

      ARRIVAL OF PRINCE ALBERT . At a quarter before ten o ' clock His Royal Highness Prince Albert , attended by hie suite , arrived in a carriage and four . His Royal Highness looked exceedingly pale , and seemed much affected . His Royal Highness was immediately preceded by Hia Serene Highness the Prince of Meoklcnburgh Strelitz , who , with his suite , arrived in a Royal carriage and four . His Serene Highness accompanied Prince Albert into the chapel . The detachment of Guards presented arms as their Royal and Sereno Highnesses passed . His Royal Highness was immediately followed by Sir Robert Peel and the Earl ot Liverpool , the Lord Steward . The Cabinet Ministers present all wore the Windsor uniform , with broad black scarfs .

      The Directors of the Cemetery Ccmpany , attired in deep mourning , with silk soarfs aud hat-baud& , were in attendance at the chapel , shortly after seven o ' clock . The Directors and their friends were accommodated underneath the chapel portico , on either side of the entrance , and in the open cloisters . At half-past ton the funeral procession entered the cemetery by the grand entrance . The Bishop of Norwich and the chaplain of the cemetery then appeared at tho door of the chapel in full canonicals . Immediately behind stood Sir Robert Peel , the Duke of Buooleuch , and the other Cabinet Ministers . These personages received the procession at the door . Tne carnages as they arrived drew up at the door of the chapel , and those who were to form part of the mournful procession were arranged in their places by the Lord Chamberlain ' s officers .

      ARRIVAL OF THE PROCESSION . At ten minutes before eleven the hearse , drawn by eight black horses , containing the body , and adorned with escutcheons , arrived ? at the chapel door . The magnificent coffin was borne into the chapel by twelve men . who seemed to bend beneath the hfavy weight . We understood the weight of the coffin was nearly 9 cwt . The hearse was followed by a mourning coach with six horses , in which was the chief mourner , his Royal Highness the Dnke of Cambridge . His Royal Highness appeared suffering from the deepest grief , being- at times almost convulsed by tho agony of his feelings . He iooked dreadfully pale , and wept bitterly . The Bishop of Norwich and the chaplain of the ceremony preceded the body into the chapel , reading tho opening sentences o ? the solemn Funeral Service of the Church of England .

      The following Noblemen and Gentlemen followed in their private carriages : —The Duke of Wellington , the Marquis of Clanncardo , the Earl of Clarendon , the Earl of Zetland , Viscount Duncannon , Lord Palmerston , Lord J . Russell , Lord Howick , Lord Cottenham , Lord Morpeth , Lord Oranmore , Lord Nugent , and the Earl ot Redesdale . Upwards of thirty private clooseu carriages followed . The procession was escorted to the chapel door by two detachments of tho Horse Guards , which filed off , as did the different carnages , round the right cloister . All those having the right of entree having arrived at the chapel , the doors were closed [ at ten minutes past eleven o'clock , and the ceremony commenced . The following was the ceremonial within the chapel : —

      At the entrance to the Chapel , the different personages taking part in tho funeral ceremouy alighted from their carriages , when the mournful procession moved in the following order : — Pages of his late Royal Highness . Medical attendants of his late Royal Highness . The Curate of Kensington . Vicar of Kensington . Secretary , Librarian , &c , of his late Royal Highness . Chaplains of his late Royal Highness .

      Bedford , Duke of Devonshire , Earl of Zetland , Viscount Palmerston , Viscount Duncannon , Lord John Russell , fcc . Staff of the Artillery Company . Upon entering the chapel the body was placed on a platform , and the coronet and cushion , laid xoton the cofiin . The chief mourner ( his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge ) sat at the head of the corpse , tha supporters standing on each side . The Princes of the Royal Family , with the Hereditary Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Sfcrelitz , sat new the chief mourner . The Lord Chamberlain of Her Majesty ' s House hold took his place at the feet ot the corpse . Tbe Supporters of the Pall stood on each side ot kha body .

      The Train Bearers stood behind the Princes of tfia Royal Family , and also the Executors of hia late RoyU Highness . Tbe other persons composing the procession -wet arranged on either side of the chapel , the Pagea harks filed off at the entrance . The part of the service before the interment having been read , the corpse was deposited in the vault , and tbe Bishop of Norwich having concluded the burial service , the Garter Principal King of Arms pronounced the style of his late Rojal Highness . Tae Knights of the several Orders present at tits solemnity wore their collars , with white rosettes . The Pall-bearers were the Duke of Wellington , the Duke of Bedford , the Duke of Devonshire , and tbe Duke of Somerset .

      Immediately after the ceremony Prince Albert entered his carriage , preceded and followed by an escort of tbe Horse Guards , and proceeded at a rapid r& towards Buckingham Palace . Most of the Nobility who took part in the ceremonial left immediately after wards iu their private carriages . His late Royal Highness's piper , M'Kay , sod indeed all his late Royal Highness ' s servants , seemed deeply affected . They all spoke i n the highest terms of his Royal Highness ' s kindness and consideration for them .

      Tbe ceremonial was concluded shortly before twelve o ' clock , and the grave closed for ever over one who enjoyed as much of the honour aud respect , and , perhaps more of the love , of his fellow men than usnallj falls to the lot of Princes . Illustrious not merely by courtesy , but by the qualities equally of his head acd heart , the memory of the Duke of Sussex will be revered by tbe philanthropists , when that ef sea equally illustrious iu rank , but who have afcused or neglected their opportunity of doing good , ebtll be sunk in oblivion or remembered only with scorn . On

      leaving the cemetery we found a detachment of life Guards stationed as a guard of honour at the gate , tod at a short distance up the Harrow-road , there wm a detachment of Horse Guards , with a military band ( mounted ) . The road ail the way to town was crowded with pedestrians . The aUges and platforms erected on tbe road were deserted , and many of them had been entirely removed in less than , a quturtet of an boor alter the procession had passer ) . Toe fineness of the day contributed , no doubt , greatly to the increase ef tbe number of pedestrians .

      TO IHE EDITOR OP THB K 0 ETHEB . N STAK . gin ^ I last night returned to Edinburgh , after a fortnight ' s tour in tbe North , and thinking that a knowledge of tbe real state ot Chartism is that quarter might be interesting to the friends of freedom in the South , I shall take the liberty , through the medium of your paper , to describe what came nnder my own obser-Tation . Before I went to tbe North 1 was afraid from what I heard that distress , destitution , and disappointment h »< J thrown tbe public mind into the slough of political despondency , if not actual despair . Bat I am happy to assure you and the friend * of freedom in Eng » land that such is not tbe fact My reception in the North proves that In that part of Scotland Chartism la tar ( from being dead—that it is sot asleep . I have

      visited Dundee , Arbroath , Brecben , Montrew , and other places . I have had crowded houses , so msob so , that the people there say , nay ,, even the local newspapers admit that there has not been snch Chartist meetings for years , although I spoke twice in all these piaoee . In Dundee I lectured three nights , and in Aberdeen five nights rn ning . But , Sir , I nave met with that which pleases me far better than full and crowded houses ( and thera is nothing I detest more thon empty benches ) and that i « the warm reception J met with and the firmness and determination of the people to carry tbf'Charter . Their spirit is still unbroken ; BtirriiJg and active ; resolved to pursue with untiring energy , till rational liberty has obtained the ascendancy . It is with sincere delight that I can send you such a statement—it is truly heart-cheering to myself to see the cause for which I suffered , ( and for which I would still suffer ) prospering so triumphantly .

      In the Scottish Tinej-ard good labourers are much wanted ; they cannot be efficient at present as it is only in a very few places that associations exist , and the poverty of tbe people cannot pay the expense of agitating the organized districts . Were roch a national union established in Scotland and England as that propoaed by Mr . O'Connor , then the strong for a time could bear the burden of the weak ; or , in plain terms , good men might , from a general fund , be sent ts districts which in a little time would reimburse the general fund fer all the outlay attending their first organisation ; another good effect would be , that by such a national or general fund ( I care not which ) good and true men alone would be admitted as pnblic lecturers , and an end pat to that petty squabbling unfortunately , but too prevalent , in Scotland . I am , yours truly , Robert Peddik . Bdintrargn , 15 , West Richmond-street , 1 st May , 1843 .

      Shocking Accident . —On Thursday week , an accident occurred in a quarry near Glossop , Derbyshire , by which a young man named James Bowden lost his life . In the quarry it is usual for the men to loosen the rocks by blasting and undermining ; and it appears that part of the stone had been undermined the night previous to the day on which the accident occurred . Some of the rook had fallen down , but a Urge piece at the top was left projecting a considerable way beyond the rest of the rook . The workmen observed this , and some of them went on the top to examine whether it was safe ; and seeing no crack , they thought it would not be dangerous to allow it to remain . The men had been at work there for some time after this

      and deceased was filling a barrow under the projecting rock , when another of the workmen , who observed that it was loosening , and likely to fall , cried out to him to run away ; but , before he could escape , the stone , which weighed about two tons , came down , striking the deceased , and knocking him against the wheelbarrow . He was much hurt , but life was not extinct ; and , on a surgeon being sent for , he recommended that the man should be taken to the Manchester Infirmary , which was immediately done , and the unfortunate young man lingered there till Sunday night , when he died . An inquest was held on the body on Thursday last , before Mr . Chapman , the borough coroner , andjfthe jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death . "
