Tax appointment of Dr. Tararca, the Dean of Westminster, to the Archbishopric of Dublir, is one that is likely to give as much satisfac tion as any that could have been made to that anomalous post. It is difficult to select in the present day men of very pre-eminent qua lifications for any high position ; and we do n. speak of Dr. TRENCH as a man of pre-eminence. But in the various positions in life in which he has been placed, he has shown himself a useful and a laborious man. He has also shown himself in the ordinary affairs of life a clever and—what is per in these days more important—a steady and a steadfast man. It may be thought that he owes his great preferment more to private friendship than to public reputation ; but, after all, in this age no man can be merely promoted by private friend ship without public desert, and public deserts, unhappily, may be said to be too often wholly in effective where private friendship is wanting. Dr. TRENCH, no doubt, exemplifies both rules. Had he not bad the advantage of a personal friendship he would never have been Dean of Westminster ; had he not poisseseed public quali fications he would never have been Archbishop of Dublin. It was at the commencement of the present century that a gentleman of good extrac tion and coonexions settled himself at the somewhat remote village of Botley, in the county of Hants ; a district at that time of somewhat unenviable notosisty. It was on the verge of localities ineli gible from the character of their populations. On one side lay the New Forest, notorious for the deer-stealing and smuggling propensities of those who resided in its neighbourhood ; on the other hand was Waltham Chase and the Forest of Bere, inhabited by the ." Waltham Blacks," a race cele brated by no lean a person than Wrtuur Coaawrr, who resided in the midst of them, and who took every opportunity of making known their habits and deficiencies in his now almost forgotten, but then most popular, " Weekly Register." Cosarrr, perhaps, did as much in one way for the improve ment of this district as RICHARD Titsscii did in another ; but Mr. TRENCH'S influence lasted longer. He acquired lands and friends, where C,oserrr, unfortunately acquired neither. Bonney, an hereditary seat of the family of Teams, is at no great distance from Botley or from Bishop's Waltham. It might have been sur prising in those days if a young man, a Minister of the Crown, occupying a high place at Court, a favourite in society, a man of fashion and of power, should have cultivated the acquaintance of WILLIAM COBBIITT ; but it was not at all surprising that such a man, an Irishman in blood and in feeling, should visit and become intimate with his neighbour, a scion of the families of the Earl of CLarrcaery and Lord ASHTON/1, and bear ing the honourable name of Taestcn. It would have been, perhaps, quite as surprising, despite shades of difference in politica, if the one fami'y had been found arrayed in opposition to the other when • county election occurred upon which the fate of a statesman and a friend depended. The South Hampshire election of January, 1835, is remem bered, perhaps, by very few amongst us. It was the election consequent upon the accession of Sir ROBERT PEEL to power, and the country gentlemen of South Hants determined to throw out of their representation the two men, both famous in the'- generation, who then represented the - n —the Viscount PALMERSTON and Sir Groans STAUNTON. I They succeeded. Two respectable top-bootmen, up to their knees in the mud of their own lands, were elected in their stead. WiLm•sr Coesarr was returned at the same election for Oldham, and died six months after. But Mr. nasal in Mimi shire, despite b is family politica, supported Viscount PALMERSTON, the rejected of South Banta, and his son is to-day Archbishop of Dublin. It is • decided merit in a statesman not to forget those who have done him service. Mr. TRENCH was the incumbent of a small living called Itchin-Stoke, on the chalky lands between New Alresford and Winchester, when the Pains Munirrs• of England, his father's friend, found • favourable opporturity of giving him preferment, and raised him to the Deanery of Westminster. Mr. Terser( was not undeserving the promotion. He had taken good academical degrees, he had been many years a laborious parish priest. The Bishop of OXFORD, who had held an important living in the same diocese, had appointed him one of his chaplains, he had contributed somewhat to literature, and had made himself a name. A Minister is almost always right who, in the absence of great talent elsewhere, promotes a man upon whom he can rely. Lord PALMIASION thought be could rely upon Mr. TRENCH, and he made him a Dean. Since the days of Dean Swirr (we mention it for the especial benefit of our friends in Dublin) Deanery has been regarded on this aide the Channel as an office in the Church requiring no very active exercise of ability, clerical or secular. It has rather been regarded as a position of repose: the easy cushion of the Church. If a Dean will only keep his chapter in respectable order; open the cathedral to the public ; maintain it in repair; ', preach occasionally a few tolerable sermons ; avoid extreme opinions either in affairs of Church or State ; regulate his household with decorum ; fill, with due propriety, a place in good society ; give THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 9, 1863.

Between eight and nine o'clock on Saturday even ing a man murdered a woman, supposed to be his wife, and two girls, supposed to be hie children, in a eab whisk he had hired to convey them from the Great Eastern Railway static. at Shoreditch to the Royal Oak Tavern at Padding ton. The train by which the members of thin unhappy family travelled arrived at the Shorrditch station at half put eight o'clock, and on leaving it the man called a nab, in which he first placed the woman and the two children and then entered himself, directing the driver to take theni to the Royal Oak. On their passage through Bishopegate street; the man suddenly pulled up the driver at a public house called the Green Dragon, and requested him to get • pint of beer. The beer Ira' brought to the cab, and the man having partaken of some of it, gave the remainder to the woman and children, and the journey was proceeded with. On reaching Victoria-street, at the foot of Holborn hill, the man again stopped the driver and got out of theca's, paying him 44.6 d., being his fare, anddirecting him todrive hie passengers on to Paddington, he himself going up Victoria street in the direction of Clerkenwell. The driver obeyed lli iestruetions, and drove three dead bodies to Paddington. From what has since transpired it seems very clear that when the cab-driver pulled up at the Green Dragon, and handed the man the pint of beer, be drank of it, and then put into it a quantity of prussic acid.he bed in his pomemion. The administration of the deadly poison at the Green Dragon in Bishopagate•street at about twenty minutes before nine would account for the deaths by the time the cab reached Victoria-street, and Hire is every rea son to suppose that the murderer watched the mid action of the poison, and that on reaching Victoria-street finding all dead, m ade his escape. The cabman, noon scions of what his cab contained, drove his fare to the Royal Oak, and upon the discovery being made the bodies were conveyed to Bt. Mary's Hospital, where in due course Dr. Lankester will bold an inquest. The descriptions, as circulated by the police, are as follows :—The female is supposed to be aged 34, height 5 feet 2 inches, stout, complexion fair, hair light brown ; dress black alpaca, ditto woollen shawl, red striped petti coat, two brown crinolines, two flannel pettiecata (new)e calico chemise, white stockings, cashmere side-laced boots (patent toes), black straw bonnet, wore • small plated brooch, black fall, hair net. First child, • girl, aged 7, complexion fair, hair light brown, dress—black frock, black sealskin jacket, two flannel petticoat., two calico chemises (one new), white stockings, leather boots with bright small buttons, white straw bat trimmed with black ribbon ; wore • hair•net and white woollen oom toner ; on the paean • white cambric handmaid marked "E.M.11." in ink, and round the body an elastic belt. Sewed child, a girl aged five, complexion fair, hair light brown ; dress—a black frock, grey cloth jacket, pearl but tons in front, and black silk ape; two flannel petticoats, two calico chemises (one new), white socks, leather lace boots, speckled straw hat trimmed with black velvet and ribbon ; wore • light comforter, and around the body an deaths belt. The man is about thirty-five years of age, height 5 feet 5 inches, alight built, corn plexion dark ; hair, whiskers, aid moustache black ; dress black, and black hat. Can be identified. There was found in the cab three lilac petticoat (ace large, two small) tied in • black cotton apron, one white handkerchief, • new black and brown cloth cap lined with red silk, amall leather strap, • brown leather bat-case, containing some figs and biscuits; • brown leather square portemonnaie with steel frame, containing five shillings in silver, balance farthing in coppers, and two postage stamps. The bodies of the unfortunate victims have been stripped, and in the breast of the woman was (mad • box of oiet• ment. It was labelled " William Hunt, Camberwell ; zinc ointment." The police have waited upon Mr. Heat, and he at once mid that the ointment had been purchased at his shop, and that the writing was his own, but he could not remember to whom he had sold it, as it was an article that was frequently asked for. From the clean ap pearance of the box he had no doubt that it had come from his house within the past few days. The cabman has made • statement to the polio. to the effect that he did not think that the parties bad arrived from the country, for although be was engaged in the station yard, the woman first came from the "departure" side, and not from the " arrival "side. His impression from the hur ried way in which he was addressed was that the woman had missed the train, and was anxious to hasten home. The police have had four pots headed to them by Mr. Parson., of the Green Dragon, wine and spirit Mores, Bishopegate-street Without, one of which it was stated was the one taken out by the cabman. They have been examined, but nothing poisonous was found in them. The cabman, however, states that when the man handed him the pot from the cab window he held it upside down, so that the dregs went on to the pavement. The cabman, in answer to inquiries as to whether he saw who drank from the pot, replied that he could not say, as he had • email quantity of gin, for which the man paid, and whilst the inmates of the cab had the pot inside, he was standing at his horse's head. To account for his not seeing whether the woman sod children were alive when the man got out, he states that the man when he got out abut the door, and went and spoke to him or. the box. There was nothing particular in the man's appearance to excite his suspicion. From what came to the knowledge of the police yesterday afternoon, an official from the railway was requested to view the bodies, for the purpose of seeing whether he could ideutify them. It would appear that a lady, with two children, has been making anxious inquiries after her husband, who she stated had deserted her and run away with her servant. Last evening the official referred to &Mailed at the dead house, but failed in identifying the deceased, and the police are as far off as ever in getting any clue to the murderer. In addition to the deecriptios given by the police informs: tiou of the deceased woman, it may be stated that she wore false curls, had a scar on the right side of the head just behind the ear, as if from a scald or a burn,and had very dark eyebrows and eyeluhes. The woman and the children were stout, and were apparently in perfecrbodily health at the time of de►th, and the children bore a strong resemblance to the unfortunate woman. The surgeon at the hospital stated that der.th had been almost instantaneous, and the whole of the deceased appeared to hare expired without a struggle. The whole of the clothing taken from the deceased can be seen at the Pella-station, Paddington-green. Information has been forwarded to the coroner, and the inquest, it is understood, will be held to-day. Whilst the police were engaged in endeavouring to appre hend the supposed murderer, information was received at the police-station that a man answering the description given by the cabdriver had been found dead in bed at • coffee-holm in Southwark, and that he hail committed suicide by taking laudanum. The information was as fol• lows : " Died suddenly, supposed from poison, • ma., woe supposed to be C. Roll, aged 40, height 5 feet 8, complexion dark, dark moustache, dress, dark tweed coat, Wellington boots, deer-stalker cap, striped flannel shirt." The de ceseed said he came from Wake when he mitered the coffee-shop. On his person was found se. 111 d., two phials, labelled poison, and a comb and knife. . . _ The cabman was as soon as possible taken to the coffee. hour; but be at once said that thedeceased wee not therm who rode in his cab. LATEST PARTICULA.IO3.-(THIS DAY.) The announcement of this extraordinary murder in this morning's papers has caused • great excitement at the West-end, and numbers of people have been making anxious inquiries at the police-station in Hermitagoetreet, and also at St. Vary's Hospital, but nothing of much im portance has occurred. The landlord of the Goma Dragon public-bouse, in Bishopegatostreet, says he perfectly well recollects Parker, the cabman, coming into his house on Saturday night, and being served with the half-and-half. and himself with three halfpennyworth of gin, as alre►dy reported. Before he (the cabman) took the beer out he asked for the change. Tho landlord told him that his practice wa■ to give the change when the pot was brought heck. With this the cab man took the beer out, and as he was outside some considerable time the landlord went out with the seven pence-halfpenny change, sod gave it to the cabman, who handed back the pot. The landlord then saw the man inside the cab and would be able to identify him again. When the cabman opened the door at the Royal Oak, he saw the woman and the two children huddled at the bottom, one on the top of the other. This morning he says his first impression was that they had been drinking more freely than he had at first imagined. He shook the woman, but as she did not move he took the youngest child in his arms and found it quite stiff, He dropped it again and jumped back into the middle of the pavement, where be stood transfixed with horror. The Royal Oak being a place of great traffic, the parlors by see ing the cabman in such a state ran to the cab, where the truth became apparent that all were dead. Mr. Henry no offence to his neighbours, or ground of com plaint against him in high places ; and publish a few volumes, good, bad, or indifferent, as the cum may be ; he does all that in these days is required of him ! All this, we believe, and something more, has been properly done by the Dean of WESTMINSTER. Whether he has the power to do more we Dope to live to see. It will doubtless be " a task " to fill the place occupied for so many years by Archbishop WHATELIF. It will be a task requiring nerve, ability, discretion, and—if the new Archbishop applies himself to the root of the evils of the Church of Ireland—great vigour, influence, and power. If the new Archbishop has it in 11 4 -n to apply himself to the task, there is a great work and a great opportunity before him. A member of an Irish family, steadily Protestant yet never unpopular, whose scions are to be found distributed over many parts of England and of her colonial possessions, but whose chief remains associated with Irish property and Irish interests, Archbishop TRENCH may do much to command esteem and regard, and thereby to heal the unhappy divisions which, ever since the Battle of the Boyne, religious differences have fomented amongst all classes of the Irish people. The new Archbishop will be received in Ireland as an Irishman ; and all the people of Ireland of whatsoever creed will prefer an Irishman for the important place which he will occupy. He will leave England with the good-will and regard of all who have known him, and with the most sincere wishes that in the great task which lies before him he may achieve all that his best friends can hope or desire. eV Court.

Plaintiff submitted plans to the Brighton and South Coast Rails ae Company ; and a Corre spondence ensued in which they proposed a deviation, but pltintiff did not convent to this, sad his plane having been approved by the Metropolitan Bcardol Works, he enkand into a contract with the Messrs. Grissell and Peto for the con struction of the bridge, and they commenced operations on the Sod. The following day the defendants sent a number of men with sticks and pickaxes and other instruments, who drove the contractors' workmen away, and the present motion was tor an injunction to restrain them from so interfering. Mr. Taylor appeared for the company, and asked that the matter might stand over in order to give time to answer eflidavits. Mr. Glum objected, and The Court made an interim order until Thursday. the plaintiff undertaking to deal with the works either by taking them down or dealing with them in such other meaner as the court may direct, and to conduct the works in such • manner as not to interfere with the traffic on the railway.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER. &Wogs io 13ancio.—(Before Laid Chief Baron Pollock and Barons Mattis, Bramwell, and Changell.) MOBOAN V. LINGBJ.—•CIIDN FOB EIL•NpaItBY ♦ GOVERN/3!. This salon was tiied at the last retiree for the county of Glostevirw, before Mr. Baron Maidn, when a verdict was found for the defendant. ----- Mr. Hoddlrston, Q.C. (with whom was Mr. J. J. Powell, Q.C.), moved for a rule for a new trial on the ground of the improper reception and of misdirection by the learned judge. The de claration contained nine counts. the first four being for slander, soil the other five for libel. The plaintiff was a governess, and the slander alleged to have been uttered by the defendant we. that she eras "off her head," that she " laboured under delusions," and "was in fact, insane." The libel counts contained several letters which the defendant had written respecting the plaintiff to several persons. The plaintiff wits • young lady, the daughter of a medical man in the county of Hereford, who died leaving his family in rather indigent circumstances, and she had maintained herself re a governess in • family, and also in goring daily instruction. The defendant, Mr. Liogeo, was a medical man, in the city of Hereford, who had shown some kind ness to the plaintiff individually. sod also to her family. It appeared that in September, 1862, the plaintiff, with a friend,went to a flower show, held on the Castle-green, Here ford, when she touched or rubb, against Mrs. Lingen, who also happened to be there, which guys the latter great offence, and led to something being said ►boat seeding for a policeman. The Dent day Mr. Lingen, wrote a letter to Mrs. Williams, a friend of the plaintiff, in which he said he had no doubt the mind of Miss Morgan was seriously affected, and requested her to write to one of her sisters and urge the family to see to her at once. The learned counsel reel several of the other letters, including one to the plaintiff's solicitor, dissuading her from going on with the action, observing that the issue would be as in the Windham case. whether the plaintiff was or was not of sane mind, and that if she succeeded she would be shown to be a shrew. There could be no doubt that the plaintiff felt some soreness in consequence of • belief that Mrs. Linger had prevented Mr. Liogen's children coming to her and deprived her of other pupils ; but the learned counsel appealed to the learned judge whether her conduct in the box dil not disprove that she was a person of ill regulate 1 or improper mind. Mr. Baron Martin said there was no imputation of that kind. He never saw a lady give her evidence more care. folly, or show a greater desire to tell the truth. but she admitted that she exhibited her feeling towards not only Mrs. Linger; but other ladies, by walking proudly past them and curling up her lip. Mr. Huddleston, having referred to parte of the evidence, submitted that to say of a govereese, who maintained her. self by teaching, that she was "off her head" and in sane amounted to • libel. Mr. Baron Martin said he was of opinion that he ought to have told the jury, as a matter of law, that the verbal statements made by the defendant as well as the letter be wrote were justified by what occurred at the flower show, and on a second occasion at church ; but he left the whole matter to them, and they found ■ verdict for the defendant. The court refused to greet a rule. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Wore Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) IN Cl SHAW AND SHAW. Tbe bankrupts, Caroline Eliza sod Frederick Shaw, were printers, of Tooley-street.

From the evidence taken on the previous occasion it ap peered that deceased was a shoemaker, who lived and died in a miserable room at 6, liereford.street, Hoggerston. He bad been ill for a long time, and could not earn much. For the three weeks previous to his death on last Saturday week, he had earned nothing.
