Peyser, late 2 merchant ip Boston, who was crushed to death, on Wednesday morning last, at the Twenty- Seventh street depot of the New Haven ailroad, by being caught between the gate post and a car Which Was passing into the yara, was commenced before Coroner Keenan, at the City Hail, yesterday morning. Two brothers and other relatives of de- Ceased were prosent and watched the proceedings ‘With much tnterest, tuey belleving there was gross carelessness on the part of the railroad company. Deceased had his life insured in several ‘companies for large amounts. Below will be ound @ synopsis of the evidence adanced. John Morrison, of 155 East Forty-f posed that onthe morning of the accident he was stauding inthe yard of the Hariem Raliroad and Saw a New Haven car come in drawn by two horses; beard 4 scream, and looking around saw deceased rolling avainst the gate, between the gate and post, and then he [ell in a sitting position; the watchman Of the Harlem Railroad and myself ran towards de- ceased, and then an officer Came: heard no alarin givea before deceased was crushed; it was quite dark at the time, David Jones, of No. 340 East Thirteenth street, deposed that he was at the Harlem Kallroad depot at the toe Mr. Peyser was injured; witness was standing on the platiorm to get out of the way of the owl traig, which was tien coming into the yard; in @ moment, alter reachiag the platform, the Wituess heard some one exclaim as if injured, and, Jooking around, saw a dark object drop between tie car aud the gute post; ran up and saw dcceased and heard Le Lad been killed; decearcd Was taken inio the sitting room o1 the New Haven depor; aiter the accident there was a difference of Opiziga a8 to whewwer toe deceased should be taken bo Lellcvue Los) ital or to the station house. Hugo O'Connor, switchinan in the eiploy of the Rarlem Ratiroad Company, deposed that he saw Usree meu pass into tae yard; oue of them stopped tn froth of the gate; Isignalled to them two or three times to get oui of the way, as a New ver car was ubout passing into ihe yard; as they did not Move the witness tica attempted to rua in front of the horscs, but they cut bim of; une witncas then stopped, aud, looking under the car, saw deceased's Jegs rolling around, ind saw him fal! at the end of the yard; oue of the tiree men said he heard the bg give an aiarm, bui didnot Know whut he meaut, Theodore Castica, an oMicer of the Twenty-ninth precinct, was at Twenty-sixth sirect and Fourth ave- Due at the time of the accident, and ruuning up saw that decased was badly injured; rapped ior aesist- ance and other officérs coming up witness ran to the staiion house and reported to the sergeant in coin- mand; was told to brlug him to the station house, Dut on returning to the depot Mr, Peyser was dead; ‘when took the remaius to the station house; no doctor Was culled to aiiend upon deceased, aud, according to tie testimony, at least twenty minutes elapsed the time of the accident ull the body was re- ved,no effort belbg Made to save his life. Many think the police oficers in attendance were remiss in their Gaty, Inasmuch as they took uo prompt action to reiicve Mr. Peyser’s guflerings on ihe spot or re- move him to @ pluce where he could receive medical treatment. In order to procure jhe attendance of tho two gen- flemen with deceased at the time of the occurrence the further investigation of tue case was adjourned tli Mouday next, A RUNDLE OF TRESSCS.

The Houses in Session After Prorogation. Queen Victoria’s Speech to the Lords and Commons. The Royal Address Read by Comunission. O'Donovan Rossa, the Fenian Convict, and Other New Mombers. Work for the Legislators-—-The Rights of Labor, Free Trade, }retand, the Alabama Claims and the Colonial Situation, Tho British Parliament, the eighth of Queen Vic- toria, wil reassemble and meet In session tn London to-day after prorogation. The House of Commons was elected during the months of November and December in the year 1868, ‘The members of both houses, Lords and Commons, separated by royal Permiseton for the recess on the Lith of August, 1809, Her Majesty the Queen—as has been usual with her of late—did not attend at Weatminster in person on the occasion. Nor will she be present to-Vay at the reopening, although no more important legislative aggregation than this has been witnessed in Great Britain since the meetings of the members who in years past, at different periods, debated and passed the Catholic Emancipation and Reform bills and the act for the repeal of the Corn laws, The absence of the Queen detracts vastly from the spectacular effect of the sceue, Itmay be said, Indeed, that it reduces the ceremonial to a cold formahty, one in which the people outside take very little Interest nowadays. The Lord Chancellor will take his seat on the woo!- sack in the House of Lords about half-past tnree o'clock in the afternoon. |The Usher of the Black Rod will, immediately afterwards, summon the Tmembers of the House of Commons to appear at the bar of the Lords to hear her Majesty's speech read. The Queen bemg absent her ‘faithful Commons” will afford only & very sparse representation, Their attendance in the Reform and Carlton Club nousea will be numerous, animated and excited notwith- standing. Very able and distinguished statesmen, with many earnest and eficient, although not very decidedly prominent, public servants of England, will be in the Parliament House, The Rigut Bonor- able the Premier, William E. Gladstone; Lord Claren- don, Earl Granvilte, the Marquis of Lansdowne, the Duke of Argyll, the Marqnis of Hartington, the Duke of Cambridge, John Bright, Mr. Cardwell, Mr. Lowe, with oMer officers of the crown ana members of the Cabinet, will be either in attendance near the Lord Chancellor or tn their respective seats. ‘The Commons being “at the bar’’ and silence being proclaimed, the Lord Caancellor wii read ‘The Queen’s Specch. The main points of the State paper are as fol- lows:— Her Majesty ts rejoiced to again meet her faithful Lords and Commons. ‘The Queen continues to receive from foreign Powers tho strongest assurances of thei fmendly disposition. Her confidence in the maintenance and preservation of peace has been coniirmed during the recess, Her Majesty's negouations with the government of the United States of America on the subjectof the Alabama claims, which were lately suspended by mutual consent, have not been renewed. Friendly yelations nave been maintained between the two countries notwithstanding. Her Majesty’s son, Prince Arthur, visited the peo- ple of the Dominion of Canada. His reception gave evidence of their loyalty. The Prince extended his tour Into the territory of the United States, where the President of the American republic personally renewed his assurances of good will towards the throue, The passage of the act which put an end to the establishment of the Irish Church has beeu received as a conclusive proof of the anxiety of both ine Crown aud Parliament to termmate rejigious dissension in that country aud deal impartially and with justice with all interests ta every part of the nation. Ireland remains agitated and i some places dis- turbed. Her Majesty regrets thas the imhabitants of the island are not exvctiy in hat state of fraternal concord with the people of Great britain and Scot- jand which constitutes the chief strength of hor Majesty in her extended empire. ‘The laws which reguiato the relations between landlord and tenant in Ireland need amendment. Her Majesty commits this subject again to the anxious consideration of Parliament, « ‘The operation of the law for the abolition of im- prisonment for debt has nad a waintary effect. The endowed schools and colleges of the kingdom Will, It 18 hoped, be made more accessible to the people and the blessings of pabiic education be more largely diffused. Commerce is greatly benefited and soctol corammn- nication factiitated by the government control of the electric telegraphs aud tue working of the system of postal telegraphs, But thave subjects are coin- mended to the care of Parliament, The supply of food for the peopic has been en- larged by the removal of the duty on corn, The navigation laws and operation of the law re- guiating trade with the empire of France nved re- vision, Justice has been administered tmparulally and with mercy. Many offenders against the dignity and peace of the Crown suill suffer the penaltics of their crimes. e ‘The faltiful Commons are thanked in the name of her Majesty for the liberal money supplies which have been granted for the public service and tue support of the Crown. Her Majesty invokes the biesaing of God on the deliberations of ber Parliament, The session fs now open. The New Memborn, Parliament will present‘a number of new faces in both houses. Very many chauges nave taken piace in she representative legislative personnel during the past year by death and the resignation of seats, and the consequent accession of new peers to the House of Lorda and the viection of now membera to the House of Commons. ‘The year 1859 bas been marked indeed by a high rate of mortality in tne ranks of the British peerage. ‘Thirty-two lords spirtiual and temporal died during the twelve months at ages varying from thirty-three to ninety- one, ‘Iwo peers exceeded ninety years of age, the Earl of Radnor and the Bishop of Exeter; five dica between eighty and ninety—the Bart of Craw. ford aod Balearres, the Earl of Wicklow, Viscount Gough and Lorda Broughion and Leaconfield; ten between seventy aud eiguty--the Marquises of Anglesey and Westminster, Earls de la Warr, Derby, Glasgow and Fingal, and Lorda Castiemaine, Dyne- vor, Taunton and Wyniord; nine between sixty and seventy—the Earl of Kingston (fifth peer), the Bishops of Salisbury and Manchester, and Lords Boston, Crofton, Foley, Hawke, Kenyon and Stanley of Alderley; four between fifty and aixly—tae Kari of Kingston (sixth peer), Viscount Canterbury, the Bishop of Carlisle and Lord Cloncurry; two below Ofty—Viscount Strangford and Lord St. Maur. Tho baronies of Broughton, Strangford and Taunton became extinct}; and the successors to the titles of Lords Foley and Kenyon are minors. It is remark- able that while the House of Commons, with 653 members, lost eleven by death, the Hongo of Lords, an assembly smaller by 200 men, lost nearly three times that number, Queen Victoria created half a dozen or so of new peerages during the recess, “my lords’ having for the most part seats in the House of Lords as British peers, The new peers will take thelr seats, New membera of the Houge of Commons will also bo sworn ip and take thelr seals, OF these there are not many. The mos? noted and remarkable of tbe number will be heard of from Ireland, in tae caso of Jeremiay O'Donovan (Kossa), the Fenian convict, who bas beem electea for the county of Tipperary, ana tifat of Mr. Fuike Greville Nugent, an Engiish Catholic, who was returned for tho county of Longford, Mr. Nugent will take hig seat at once, Mr. O'Donovan (Rossa) cannot do so im- médialely, for the reason that he ts held as a politt- ca! convict under penal gentence in some one of her Majesty's State prisons, hia exact domictle being, for reasons of State, not correctly known to out- siders, Mr. U'Donovan (Rossa), even as an ansecn convict, defeatea ber Majesty’s Attorney General for Ireiand at the election by a uandsome majority, although the Attorney General, being the highest law officer of the Crown in that country, enjoys the right of distributing an extensive official patronage, and Mr. O'Hagan, the defeated candidate, is & Romana Catholic in religion and was supported by the priests. The Irish High Sheriff of Tipperary will be compelled consequently so deliver tho return of Rossa to the House, leaving the Parliament itself to deal with this novel and extraordinary case. A question of the highest constitutional importance will be involved consequently. Rousa’s private character is excellent. His moral bearing and edu- cation render him eligible and ft for parliamentary duty. Hes held in prison for @ political offence, made so under a special act of Parliament, entitied the ‘Treason-Felony act,” and the grand questions Will thus remain, can ke be deprived of his seat? Will Tipperary be partially disfranchiaed by another special act? Should a new election be ordered tt 1s pretty certain that Rossa’s increased popularity will carry him to the door of the House again, and by a largely advanced majority, In view of these facts, and of the parliamentary orisig which they are likely to induce, we present to the readers of the HeRaLD to-aay a biographical sketch of the new Irish memoer of Varliameut for the county of Tipperary, ©’ Donovan Rossn, M. P. Jereniiah O'Donovan (Rossa), elected to Parlia- Ment from the county of Tipperary, Ireland, is a political prisoner in the walls of British jail, within which, in one or another of these pecular institu- tions, it may be safe to say, he has passed since he arrived at manhood—nearly one half his life. A Prominent actor in the Fenian movement in the “old country,’’ be has suffered for the cause as much al Most as any other of its adherents, and bas shown himself throughout to be a persistent organizer and worker, ont of jal, and an unbending and defiant prigoner, orn in the town of Roscarbery, county of Cors, in the year 1830, and recetying only such an education as the village school afforded, at the age of sixteen, by the death of his father, be was caat upon the worid and oviiged to contribute to the sup- Port of his mother apd younger brothers and sisters. Shortly after his father’s aeath he went to Skibvergen, where he became a member of the family of an uncle, with whom he remained un- tu 1852, when an elder brother, who had emigrated to the United States a few years previously, tnvited the entire farally, including Jeremiah, to join bimin the New World. Arrived at Cork, Jeremiah turned back feeling that he could not desert the old land to which he owed his birth and allegiance, and which he “hoped,” he said, “one day to see among the Independent nations of the earth.’ In 1867, In counccticn with severa} congenial spirits, O'Donovan organized the “Phoenix National and Literary So- ciety” at Skibbereen. Ostensibly a literary society, it nevertheless purposed to ald the resuscitation of natioual life tn Ireland. The meetings were duly ueid, and the Phanix Society spread itself rapidly Into the adjacent towns, Its radical views on Irish questions brought It into generai notice, and in 1858, when an inflammatory address was issued, “the shopkeepers” threateuea with dismuissai such of their employ¢s a4 would continue to be members of the society. The result wae that the membership dwindied down to a few resolute young meu, among Whom O'Donovan was foremost. About thin time James Stephens landed froin France tn ireland and organized a secret society—‘the Fenian circies’’ of to-day. O'Donovan was immediately initiated, and before six weeks had passed the organization nuin- bvered nearly 300 members. O’Donovan worked with great energy in Propagating the order about Skib- bereen and Roscarbery, and soon an Irish-american Was obtained to instruct them in the wilitary manual. Their drijling becommg known extra pre- cautions were taken by the geverninent, and an additional force of over a hundred men was ordered to Skibbereen. On the 8th of December. 1858, inciuding O'Donovan Rossa, Skibvereen, ana “true bills’? found against several of them for treason-felony. after beimg tmprisonea for eight months Rossa and two other Phunix men were liberated, the government being gattsiled that it could not con- Vict them. On the occasion of the marriage of the Prince of Wales several of the “gentry” of Skibbe- reen determined to bonor the event by an ilumina. ton of the club room which they and Donovan Rossa frequented. On hearing of it he cailed 3 meeting of the cluo to protest against it, but as none save him- Seif attended it be decided that tho tilumination was contrary to the wish of the members, He proceeded to tear down the fiags aad banners and extingulsi the lights. By this ume other meinbers arriving interierea to prevent bim, but he perseverod and carried out bis object, thus preventing the celebra- Yon. ‘Jue people, bearing of the occurrence, rallied Lo his assistance, and a moeting belr livered io them 6 stirring and patriotic address, 1862, under tae name of O'Donnell, Le came to York, but in g few months was reeatied to Ire by the death of his wife, but not untii be had, on the 2th of August, 1863, to the United States of American citizenship. Soon after his return, on the starting of au Irish radi newspaper in Dublin, ie hecame ono of its proprie- tors, in connecuion with Stephens, Luby and otners. On the Oth of December, 1856, Rossa was arrested and brought totrial on s charge of treason, and on the third day thereafter was convicted and pen- lenced by Judge Keogh to penal servitnde for life, t his trial he cou id not be prevatied upon vo ac- cept legal advice, deciaring in te face of the Judge @nd jury that ag “the whole thing was a farce and tis veen conviction had deteriained npon netorehand, it Was useless for him to attempt any defence.” In bis address to the jury, which occupied eight hours, 6 read copious extracts from the proceedings of the Fenlan convention at Chicago, at the conclusion of which, the Court Intimated to tue reporters that it would be “unwige for them to publish the aocu- ments quoted by the prisoner in their respective papers.’ When cailed ap for sentence tae foiowing passage passed between the Judge aud the pris- one! twelve persons, wre arrested 1a You have been connected with thig transaction mince i563" said Judge Keogh. “am an Irisninan since { was born,” replied Rossa. Twill not waste words by attempting to bring the heimousneas of the crime of which you were found guilty to your mind,” continued Judge Keog’ “Ib would be useless to try,’ auawered the pris oner. ‘The Judge then sentenced him to “penal servitude for iite.”” “All right,” exclaimed Rossa, and turning to leave tne dock, saluted as he passed oat a sumber of ladies, including his wile. ‘The same defant apirit has accompanied Rosra during hie imprisonment,and for several months alier his incarceration his hands were manacied pehtud Die back and bis prison fare fed to him by @ keeper. In fatt, he has been subjected to treatment of avery harsh character, against which he has horne up 4 great amount of personal elasticity and fortitude or whatever else the feeling may be termod. ‘The Secretary of State of the Horne Department of England on receiving the election return of the High Sheri? of Tipperary immediatety—so as to save conatitutional right—notified tne convict Rossa oi- claliy of Wis return as a member of the House.

The legislative business or parilamentery work of the session will be heavy. A large amount of mat- ter which is of serious national import, as tndi- cated above, awaita the action of the meinobers, O'Donovan Rossa’s election will bring up the aub- Ject of the imprisoned and exiled Fenians; toe irish Church qiestion is a aiMcult reality; the colohiai system necds readjustment, while the home trade, foreign tariffs, imperial taxation, the rela- tions between Isbor and capital, the land- jord and tenant relations and the Alabama claims, with thetr many divergent yet esagntial Doluts, will present divers excellent opportunities jor tne exercise of party tactics during debate, In order that the readers of the lintasp may be able to exercise an Intelligent judgment on the merits of cach a3 1t will present in our reports we publish tho main features of the most prominent of the pub- Jects, THE CONVICTRD PENIANS.
