. sgeinst pilfering on the part of the men, but will mve the foreign correspondent from being fleeced on this aide of the water by his agent. The official charges will be admirable vouchers as a guarantee against fictitious charges. The number of brokers and others who swell their profits by charging expenses in the removal of goods which have never been incurred is, we regret to learn, not few; and against fraud of this kind—if it he, as we have heard, frequenUy perpetrated—the system will act as a cheek. Ia lay tug this, we should be sorry to he understood as casting an imputation on the diameters of the merchants and broken generally, than whom, taken as a body, a more honourable, high-minded class of men does not exit. But every rule has an exception, and there are in every pursuit of life disreputable persons against whose knavery it is necessary to guard." DISCOVETIT OF A BODY IN THE RIVES IRWILL.-00 Thursday last, as Mr. Cradock, Strangewsys, was looking over the wa'l of his yard, which abuts upon the river lewd], and noticing a boat which was approaching, he saw the head of a human being. lie procured assistance, end got out of the river the body of a young man. fully dressed, ex cept that ho had so hat on. On searching the pockets there were found Gs. in silver, a penknife , a common tobacco box, a pen hohier, and a cotton-handkerchief with a little bread in it. Tho deceased appeared to have been a working man, but of what trade there was nothing to show. One of the hands was somewhat decomposed. There was a braise about the size of half-a-crown on the right temple. and the eyes were black. The body was conveyed to the WhAsteri Arms, Strangeways, where an inquest was held next even ing.

STATE or TICE rrnLic HEALTH —A very unfavourable report has b..,en issued by the Leeds House of Recovery for the last month. Sixty•eight eases form ; .er r o ljer number than was ever before admitted in thesame , and serves to show the necessity for arresting the spread of contagion by the adnptinn of all the sanitory precautions within the power of the inhabitants, or of the authorities to whom their govermiteut is confined. FACTORY GIRL6.—It will doubtless be in the recollection of some of our readers, that a meeting was held during the autumn of Wit year, to confer on the mimed improving the moral and social condition of the female factory operatives. Ono result of that meeting was, some inquiries with a view to ascertain the number and condition of this clam of oar working population ; but in consequence of the depressed state of trade at thetime, the statistical information obtained was so incomplete that it was deemed advisable to suspend active Wens until trade had returned to Its ordinary state. This is now so far the case, that the committee feel warranted In resuming their labours. They held a meeting on Monday last, at watch Dr. Scoresby presided ; and, after earing reports from the visitors of the different districts, various resolutions iu harmony with the object of the committee were passed. Among the rest it was resolved to renew the inquiries previously made, in order to obtain a more accu rate view of the objects of their interest, previous to the con sideration of any measures which may be devised for their benefit ; and certain queries were prepared, which it is hoped, the manufacturers and spinners would kindly and promptly answer. And it was also resolved to hold a public meeting early in October, with a view to excite public opinion upon the very important subject which this commit tee is inve-tigaung. In all probability, Lord Morpeth will be present at this meeting, and perhaps Lord Ashley—both of these noblemen having identified themselves creditably with various projects for elevating the social condition of the working classes.—Bradford Observer. WARWICKSHIRE. AN ANTI-SLAVERY MEETINO was held in Birmingham on Friday night. Amongst the speakers were Mr. Lloyd Gar rison, the Preradent of tho American anti-slavery society ; Mr. Frederick Douglass, a fugitive from Maryland ; and Mr. George Thompson. The former remarked that, as the re presentative of three millions of slaves in the United States he solicited the assistance of the people of this country to !tittle them from their unhappy condition. It was a strange circumstance, he remarked, almost au incredible one, that he should have to stand up in a land where the government was monarchial, and seek for the aid of the people in abolish ing slavery in a democratic republic—in a lend where the fundamental principle was recognised, that God created every m•sn free. Seventy years had gone by since that law was pronounced, end the end of that period saw that nation the moat hostile to the canoe of liberty. It went on increas ing in its inconsistency : at the close of the American revo lutionary war, shout half a million of human beings were in chains, and wholly unrecognised by the act of independence. They had ince zone on increasing their slave territory and their slaves, until, at the present moment, they nearly equal led in number the whole population of Scotland. Public opinion was now (he said) loud in condemnation of the longer continuance of the system ; as a proof, he could now count hundreds and thousands of supporters, where, sixteen years ago, he could not count ten; bud when he established the first American anti-slavery paper, although none then supported him, more than fifty now espoused his cause. Mr, Garrison, in concluding his speech, asked the assistance of the meeting on the principle of opposition to slavery, and pointed to the seizure of Texas, and the war of aggression on Mex'co, as dictated only by a thirst after an acquisition of slave territory by the southern states.—Mr. Douglass said that the love of slavery pervaded all society in America—the Church, the Bench, and the Senate. The Church was sla very's shield, and they that attacked it were branded as inS dels.—The meeting, a numerous and highly respectable one, was unanimous in condemning the existing system. THE II a YDOCK-LODOE LUNATIC Are Lilac—At the Leices ter board of Guardians, on Tuesday last, a startling state ment was made relative to the treatment of the unfortunate paupers in this lunatic asylum. Mr. Knott said that he had moved for a return of the number of paupers tent by the Leicester Union, from which it appeared that since April 3, 1845, 29 had been sent, and out of that number 11 had died, and'! had been discharg.d cured, leaving 16 in con finement. Fran the discussion which had recently taken plaza in parliament, it appeared that Haydock-lodge was a very unsuitable place for pauper lunatics. Tnere was a deficiency of diet and clothing, and no amusement,. to assist to restore the unhappy beings. They had damp be Is, and there was a want of ventilation and drainage. In some macs their diet consisted of r.ce boiled in water, and a little beer. A medical man, a resident in Cheshire, visited the asylum one morning about ten o'clock, and found the male inmates in a ragged and ditty state. A magistrate of Lancashire visited cue asylum in January last, and found many of the beds with only one blanket. He (Mr. K.) considered that such a state of things rendered Haydock-lodge wholly unfit fur lunatics. It transpired, says the Leicester Journal, that the charge per week at this asylum was 9.. Bd.: at Camber well and Hanwell it was 10s. The board appointed a com mittee to take the subject into immediate consideration. ILE^IRMF.iTATIOX OF NORTH LEICFATERSHIRE.—It is understood that, at the next general election, Lord Charles Manners will resign the representation of the northern division of this county in favour of his nephew, the Marquis of Granby. This will create a war tncy in the borough of Stamf.rd, which will he tilled by Lord John Manners, who will leave Newark, for which borough the succeeding candi date will be Jcilln Henry Manners Sutton, Esq., of Kelham ball. ST. JAMEVS CHURCH, BRISTOL. —The repairs in this fine old Norman edifice are progressing satisfactorily. A Norman altar-piece, of design consistent with the general character of tho building, has been erected. The galleries which formerly deformed the aisles have been removed. In the course of the repairs the workmen have discovered that the plaster ceiling, which detracted so much from the ori ginal beauty of the church, was of comparative modern date, and concealed a fine old timber roof, the quaint corbels of which are in a good state of preservation. This •is now in cour-e of removal, "We (Felix Farky's Gazette) feel confident that no lack of funds for the restoration of this fine old church wall be allowed by our fellow-citizens, row that a veneration for the beautiful erections of our forefathers, and a feeling of shame at having so long allowed ' the temples of God' to stem: humbly beside our more luxurious dwell ing-houses so generally prevails. We feel assured that Bristol, which possesses its••lf such noble monuments of the piety and zeal of our 'orefathers, will show itself worthy of being their repository." ENTENEITE AND ALAILMING FIRE.—BATB, SEPT. 6. A fire brake outlast night upon the premises of Mr. Butcher soap and candle manufacturer, Saw-close. The alarm sc.' first given at about ten o'clock, by a ma s who observed smoke issuing from the basement story of the building. The pa rochial and other engines were speedily on the spot. The manufactory was heavily stocked with tallow, oil, and other combustible materials, and the fire burnt with the most alarming fury. The times were discernible from every part of the city and a great crowd assembled. The premises of Mr. Butcher, with the whole of his manufactured and un manufactured stock, were completely destroyed. The dwelling-house and shops of Mr. Williams, veterinary sur geon, were greatly damaged, and the warehouses of Mr. Law, carrier, and a plate glass and carving and gilding es tablishment were exposed to the utmost danger, and but for the exertions of the firemen would prohsbly h ave been de stroyed. At the time when the conflagration broke out a numerous audience had assembled in the theatre, which is in the Saw-close; the light of the flames seen through the windows, and the smell of burning materials, produced an impression that the house was on fire. The alarm prevailed as well before as behiud the curtain, and the building was speedily evacuated, both by the performers and the spec tators. Such an alarming fire has not occurred in Bath for many years. Fortunately no lives were lost, but two or three men were so much injured as to render it necessary to take them to the hospital. ItORTNUMBEHLAND. REGTSTRATION.—The " Proteotionists " are busily pre paring to fight their battle before the revising barristers. It appears that about 80 persona have bought freeholds in the north division of Northumberland, at the instigation of the Anti-Corn-Law League, and nearly all of them have been served with notices of objection. In North Durham about 500 Liberal claims have been put in, and these too, are dis puted by the 'Tory agents. These object io ns have bessmade almost indiscriminately, although the claimants have a dear ti£e to vote. As these paellas cannot be preen* in the registration courts, at least, in nine cases oueof It" sows arrangement becomes indispenaable, end hence a ses of' the Liberal party hu bees held. Mr. J. Priest:ma and seeps were taken which will secure the efficient repre sentation of the free-trade claimants before the revising banister. Another object of the meeting was to prepare for the next general election. A numerous committee, can ning all shades of liberal politics, has been formed to secure • I fns r THE the return of a second free-trade member, in the room of Air. Hodgson Hinde. District committees hare been formed, and a determination is manifested to rest satialled with nothing short of success. DEROTEILME AN INQUEST RAS BEEN HELD AT CHESTERFIELD OD the body of a man found in a cesspool. Eridenos was ad duced to show that the name of the deceased was Callis, and that he was last seen on the 7th of December. His fore head and hat displayed marks of violence, but the ease being incomplete, the inquiry was adjourned to Thursday: The place in which these remains were found is described as being an awfhl looking. hole or pit, four feet four inches in depth ; ia general, it a partially filled with nightsoil, and all descrii tions of filth. It is situate in the yard of what used to be the Falcon Inn, into which it opens through an open brick archway, a space of three or four yards only inter vening between the entrance and the pit. We trust, saes the Derbyshire Courier, the authorities of the town will compel this place to be immediately secured by a door, as various have been the accidents occasioned by its expord state. A child recently fell in, and was got out with diffi culty ; a poor woman attired the same fate ; and some time ago a cow rushed in and sunk, and was not got nut without the efforts of many men. It is amazing that such a nuisance should have been suffered to continue after these various mischances. NVIMBOIINE —An accident of a serious nature occurred to the Her. H. Good, LL.B., on his return from Weymouth on Monday last. When about half way between Weymouth and Dorchester, the carriage in which the reverend gentle man was riding was driven against by two gentlemen who were proceeding in an opposite direction, and such was the .i•dence of the shock that Mr. Good was precipitated to the ground with much force, and severely bruised, both the shafts of the carriage being broken. The horse belonging to the other parties was much injured, and the carriage ren d:red useless. OW MIS 11SVI TO L. TURNIP DISEARE.—We regret exceedingly to learn from many fanners who have attended Oxford market, that a same whataimilar disease to that of the potato has manifested itself in many of thecounty amongst the turnips. The turnips are st7rru in a similar manner to the potatoes ; the leaves first become affected, and the disease fast spreads into the heart of the turnip, which in a very short time becomes rotten, and emits a very offer sive smell. Fears are enter tained that the turnip crops will suffer extensively from it. ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—On the afternoon of Friday last, while the half-past eiekt .i dock train, on its way to . Oxford, was within a mile of that city, a cow, which had strayed upon the line from a common, was knocked down by the engine and killed instantaneously. BERKSHIRE. WINDSOR CASTLE.—" To SOLD BY AveTrox."—Con siderablc alarm was created among Is er Majesty's lieges in the royal town of Windsor, on the pubdcation, on Saturday, of an advertisement (surmounted by the Royal Arms, pro minently displayed in " large caps") . to the following effect : " By order of her Majesty's Commissioners of Woods and Forests—Windsor Castle, to be sold by ancion " but upon diving into the small type, it was ascertained th at 'quantity of building materials were to be disposed of, not the Castle itself ! ship of Sheernese Dockyard. Captain Arthur is the 20th and the last on the list of captains about to receive their It UNITED STATES NAPT.—The Washington corre spondent of a New Yore paper states that " One of the most important measures of the present Secretary of the Navy, is the establishment of a naval school at Annapolis, where midshipmen, when off a cruise, are to be housed and instructed in everything that can advance them in their pro fession. This school is dea'gn cd to contain one hundred pupils, who are to be trained for their profet ion, taught naval astronomy, navigation, gunnery, and every other branch of science that it is useful f,r them to know. THE ALLEGED MOD.TALITT IN THE AMERICAN SQUA DEON.—The Washington Union of August 14 gives a contra diction to its previous report respecting the sickness and mortality in the U.S. squadron in the Gulf of Mexico. It says The tumours which were contained I. the letter we received yes terday front a correspondent in the Hanumah, are directly contra dicted by the official accounts which have been received in the Navy Deportment. The Raritan has arrived for some days at Pansacula.

We wish the rumours respecting the desperate condition of the Vesuvius were equally erroneous ; but recent accounts fr m Bermuda confirm these we gave on Monday last. The Vesuvius had left Bermuda fur Halifax with 27 cases of yellow fever ou board. According to the last accounts from Vern Cruz, Aug. 2, and Tampico, July 22, tho - e ports still remained blockaded Tthe American squadron, consisting of one corvette at mpico, and two frigates: one corvette, two brigs, and two steamers off Vera Cruz. The American commodore's fri gate (Cumberland, 60 guns) had gone on shore on the An ton Lizardo shoals, and been obliged to got all her guns out ; she got off with the loss of her false keel, and other serious damage, and it was capected would shortly sail for the States to repair. Our advice. front Lisbon of the 30th ult. state that the squadron of evolution was off the Rock of Lhibon, communi eating almost daily with the capital by its steamers. The I Rattler arrived from the squadron ou the 30J1 tilt, just as the packet was leaving. On the 27th ult. the Plianiz (s.) left Gibraltar for Tangier, leaving the Virago in the port.

MARLBOROUGH-STREBT.—A &mason AFFAIR Wilk's/a Templs ers. a person of vary gentlemanly appear ance, who was stated to be most reepoctebly connected, and who had been remanded from the previous day ea a chkrge of attempting to pick pockets, was brought before Mr. Hard wick fur re-examination. In consequence of a consnuinica• Hen from the authorities at Tothill-fields Prison, to the effect i that the prisoner had attempted to destroy himself, n close watch was se upon him by Wilke, the gaoler of the Gault, until the time appointed for the hearing. On the prisoner being placed in the dock three or four gentlemen stepped forward, and expressed their unwillingness to believe that he could be guilty of the offence imputed to him.—Mr. Hard wick requested the clerk to read the evidence that had been taken against the accused, in order that his friends might be fully acquainted with the particelara.—The evidence of Maloney, 20,5 D, was read. It stated that about three oa the previous afternoon he saw the prisoner in Oxford street follow two ladies, and lift up the gown of one of them and put his hand on her pocket, after which he left her. Witness crossed the road, and asked the lady if she had lost any thing, and her name, but she declined giving the its formation he required. He followed prisoner, and saw him again lift the gown of another lady, when he took him into custody. Nothing of consequence or of a suspicious nature was found upon 'him. A man who carries a board about the streets coxflrmed the policeman's statement in part by declaring that he saw the accused lift one lady's dress as described. One of the accused's friends said he had bad the pleasure of his acquaintance for a number of years, and he was the last person on earth whom he should ever have thought would have been charged with such an offence. It appeared so irrecencileable with reason that a gentleman so connected, and who had been but a short time in London, should at broad daylight, in a public thoroughfare, attempt to pick ladies' pockets.—Mr. Hardwick inquired whether the accused was in any manner known to the police. He was answered in the negative.—The friends of the accused again urged upon the magistrate that there must have been same mistake.—Mr. Hardwick reminded them that two witnesses bore ocular testimony to the respective attempts. It was the practice, however, in eases I ke the present, where persons , were not previously known to the police, to give t' em the benefit of any doubt which mi g ht aris e , an d t o di- c h arge , them with a caution. He should, therefore, allow the ee -1 cased to be discharged. CLERK ENWELL.—Ann Saunders was charged with severely woundin -nuns man named William l'ipkin.

He bled profusely from _ _ the counsel, was engaged Aar the Board of Ordnance, end as waisted by Mr. Clarke, the solicitor of the board. Mr. Buncombe. the solicitor, attended for the prlsoeer. Mr. Clarkson stated that the prisoner, while assaulting the com plainant, was struck by a gentleman of the Dame of Gunner, assistant superintendent at the manufactory. His conduct, however, he thought, could be justified, as it could be shown that he struck the prisoner in order to protect the life of Mr. Lovell. Mr. G. Lovell, who was accommodated with • chair, said, that on Saturday the 22nd ult., he was in the finishing-room of the manufactory, in company with Mr. J. Gunner, about 12 at noon. I was going out at the door when he was struck on the back of his head, by which his hat 'WS/ knocked off. He turned round and saw the prisoner with a file in his band, which was raised by him, he using an expression that complainant "had starved his wife and family." Complainant dosed upon him, and at the same time the prisoner inflicted another blow on the top of his head which caused the blood to flow profusely. Complainant was stunned and called for assistance. Mr. Gunner came up, and with a gun-barrel inflicted a blow upon the head of the prisoner which knocked him down. Complainant was attended to by Mr. Brown, of Waltham Abbey, and was subsequently removed to bit residence. —By Mr. Clarkson: I have been since confined five days to my bed.—By Mr. Buncombe : I have bad complaints from the man of the prices allowed to the men for the guns. There is a pattern gun in the view room, but guns are not required to be better finished than the one in the view room. Mr. Buncombe : Do you not hold an appointment in the Tower? —Complainant: I do.—Mr. Duncombs : Were you not there on the Monday after the assault, in the course of your duty ?—Complainant : Yes, I was there, but only fur half an hour.—Mr. Gunner, in corroborating the evidence, said that when he struck the prisoner it was to protect the life o Mr. Lovell, which he thought in danger.—Policeman Bridge, N 372, who apprehended the prisoner, said that he did no take Mr. Gunner into custody, as Mr. Lovell stated he would have lost his life had Mr. Gunner not struck the prisoner. Upon this evidence the chairman remarked that the bench had decided to send the case to the session...— Mr. Clarkson observed that the charge am,,untcd to a felony. The chairman remarked that the bench viewed the case as one of aggravated assault.—The complainant had admitted ' that he was at the Tower on the Monday.—The prisoner was then held to bail, himself in 1001, and two sureties of 751. each, to appear at the sessions. On the conclusion of the above investigation, Mr. Gunner was charged with cut ting and maiming George Gowen with intent to do him some grievous bodily injury. —Mr. Buncombe cud he should disprove the former evidence by other evidence which the Crown ought to have brought forward. Three witnesses, named Smiles, Collins, and Green, then deposed that the prisoner was secured by the two latter men and Mr. Lovell when he was struck by Mr. Gunner, and that he was unable to touch Mr. Lovell. He bad not, at the time, the file in his hand.—Mr. Asbury, surgeon, Enfield, said that the com plainant was for several days in great danger.—Mr. Gunner was ordered to find bail, himself in 1001., and two sureties of 751. each, to appear at the sessions.—Mr. Clarkson requested that the depositions might be sent to the Central Crimival Court, to show to those by whom be was engaged the course he considered it his duty to recommend to the bench.—The chairman said that there was a higher court open to Mr. Clarkson, if he were dissatisfied with the decision of the bench. KENT. SIEGE OPERATION AT CHATRAIII.-011 Friday last an experiment of broaching a stockade was made by the Royal Sapper. and Miners, on the field works of the Royal En gineers, under the direction of Lieut.-Col. Sir Frederick Smith, RM. About half-past two p.m. Sir Thomas Will shire, K.C.8., Commandant of Chatham garrison, with his Major of Brigade, Capt. Wood, with almost every officer of the garrison, appeared on the ground, and a considerable number of young soldiers. The first operation of the Royal Sappers and Miners was the construction of a bridge across the river at St. Mary's, one part of which was rafts, formed with barrels, and the other part with Col. Thom. Blanehard's pontoons—the whole construction being formed in leas than 50 minutes. The ?}Age being secure the Commandant and other military officers walked several times across, and a com pany of soldiers. So buoyant and -at was it that heavy pieces of ordnance and cavalry could have gone over it with out the least inconvenience. The General and officers then proceeded to the field works, where they inspected the erec tion of a double stocksde, constructed on the same principle as thatof 11 ickie'ipah, that proved so destructive to her Majesty's 99th Regiment at New Zealand. This stockade was firmly built of fir balks, and was about 30 feet in width ; each piece of timber was about 12 feet out of the ground and 4 feet in, firmly fixed with the earth rammed against them, and at the top and bottom the piles of timber were fixed together with ribbons of oak plank, spiked with 10-inch spikes. On the outside of the Ist line of the stockade were placed two charges of powder, in bags of 100 lbs. each, and they were laid on the ground close to the building, about five feet apart. One charge was clamped with two damp sand bags. Everything being ready the order for firing was given, and both charges ex ploded simultaneously. The effete produced was a breach made of thirteen feet, and it not only affected the earth for some distance, but it started the timbers of the interior con struction, and knocked one of the ribbons off, and shook the whole of the foundation, and the earth trembled for some distance. The effect of the expl ikon was magnificent. The next object was to destroy the interior, sou to enable troops to enter. This was effected by placing a charge of 1.5011*. of powder oa the ground, which on being fired, the explosion was most effective, and made a breach of upwards of eight feet, sufficient to enable troops to walk in six abreast. The effect knocked in the barrack-room under ground. The experiments gave the greatest satisfaction to all the military officers present. PWRIXENTL—Rev. J. C. Gregory to Holt P.

Tiro next visitation to the valuable livinfrof Realism has been deer tined for sale. The announcement s hich intimates the intention of the noble owner to dispose of the next sight of presentation to the benefice, gives an elaborate description of the advantages of positive income and moderate duty attached to the living, and also states that the present Incumbent is 81 years of age. On the 10th of last month the preferment of the Rev. James Lambert to Seaharn s iceman appeared in the Daily New*, and a paragraph subsequently was published inmost of the newspapers highly eulogising the noble patron for bestowing this valuable living upon a clergyman who Lad arrived at the =tat age of 84 years, who had been upwards of 30 fen% the t of a remote living in Yorkshire, of the annual value of 041, and who was personally unknown to the noble patron. The public will, perhaps, understand the motive of this disinterested act, when they are informed that it is illegal to sell the prnentation to a living whilst it is meant, art that the value of the next presentation is much enhanced when the incumbent is very old.

The Rluidamanthas and Dee, steam troop-ships, arrived at Devonport, on Thursday, from Cork, with the sth Fusiliers on board. THE CHANNEL FLEET.—It is expected that this fleet will arrive at Spithead .bon , the 16th instant.—The &movie (s.) arrived at Portsmouth on Saturday afternoon from Wool wich. She is to convey a portion of the 74th Regiment from that garrison to Scotland.—The Gladiator (s. f.) is also to embark part of the 74th Regiment.—The Recruit, 12, Com mander Slade, which arrived at Portsmouth, on Wednesday, from the eastward, and was inimeeted on Thursday by Rear- Admiral Dundas and Captain Berkeley, requires some altera tions, which have been found requisite during the passage from Sheerness. There is very little doubt that the experimental firing from the Excellent at iron vessels has determined the Admiralty not to contract for building any more iron brigs, and that the Recruit, and three or four now constructing, will be the last. The Hound was on Thursday inspected by Rear-Admiral Dundee, Captain Berkeley, and the Hon. Mr. Cowper, at Spithead, who highly approved of her fittings and the appearance of her crew. She is ordered to be detained, and will probably have her destination to the Coast of Africa changed. If some defects in the Recruit can be made good forthwith, it is expected the two brigs will be sent to Vice Admiral Sir W. Parker, to try their rate of sailing. We are enabled to state that Captain Sir Thomas Boar chier, K.C.8., will shortly succeed Captain W. H.

Unfortunately, while he was so engaged, some other parties, of whose presence he was not aware, gave some private lessons in the art of " diving," not into the water, but intothe pockets of his unmentionables, from which they abstracted the above mentioned articles. He discovered his loss on his return to the box, and immediately gave due notice thereof to a constable who attends the baths ta the pur pose of protecting the property of the visitors, upon which some inquiries were instituted, the result of which was, that the prisoner Curtis, who was one of the men employed at the baths, was stepeeted to he the thief, but in consequence of which directions were given to certain parties to keep a watch on his movements, and not to allow him to leave the baths, without previously undergoing the ceremony of a search; but the prisoner, as soon as he became aware that he was likely to be " wanted," retired through a back door, notwithstanding the vigilance of his watchers, who returned hint as honest. No further tidings were beard of the thief, but subsequent inquiries led to the discovery that the pro perty stolen was pledged by the prisoner Curtis, the very day after the robber!, whereupon he was taken into custody, and, in consequence of a statement he made, implicating the other prisoners, they were also introduced to the notice of the magistrates.—llie prisoners were all remanded for a week.—The magistrate afterwards observed, that the baths did not appear to be so carefully watched as they ought to be. WORSHIP-STREET. REVOLTING NUISANCE. Shortly after Mr. Broughton had taken his seat, a man named J. Gardner, of Hertford-street, Haggerstone, applied to the court. He stated " that about half post six o'clock that morning, as he was passing a waste piece of ground, situated over the Kingsland-road Bridge, by the side of the Regent's canal, where rubbish is shot, his attention was drawn to the spot by seeing a number of persona, who were raking over a heap of rubbish that had just been shot. He went up to them, and was horror-stricken to find that it consisted of nearly six cart loads of pieces of coffins and human bones, some of which had the flesh still adhering to them. There was also a person's head with the hair on it, the !ice of which was so little decomposed, that it might be identified. The coffins had very few of them been under ground, and some were almost new. The crowd, which consisted of the poor cottager, of the ueighbourkood and their children, were busy an despoiling the coffins of the metal plates and handles to sell to the marine-store dealers, and the wood they were taking home use their fires. Oa making inquiry, he found that the matter in question had been brought there but a short time before, by some carts in the employ of Mr. Gould, the dust contractor, of Shoreditch. The effluvia was dreadful, and the applicant, fearing the consequence* that might arise if its removal were neglected, instantly went to the police station in the district, and then came down to that court. The applicant's statement crated a great sensa tion in court, and Mr. Broughton sent for Holland, the war rant offiaer, to make the necessary inquiries. After the lapse of about three hours, Holland and the applicant returned to the office, accompanied by Inspector Tarleton, and Waller, the beanie of Shoreditch, and they fully corroborated the ap plicant's statement. Holland said that the whole place was an a state of great excitement; on getting into the field, he saw a great quantity of broken coffins ante human bones strewed in all directions about the field. There wire not then near so many as the applicant stated, but be had no doubt but that there had been, for several men were then busy burying the stuff. He found a skull, the jaw of which had been tied up with a handkerchief, and which was stained with blood; this was being kicked about. He then went round to the marine store shops in the neighbourhood, and found that above 201bs. of metal plates and handles had been disposed of. He also found a quantity of coffin wood that had been removed to the poor people's houses about the place, and which bad been broken up for fires. From ap pearances ho should have thought the coffins and bodies had also been broken up with either pickaxes or spades. On returning to the spot he met the proprietor of the place, who received them moat uncourteously, telling them, in answer to their questions, that they might inquire of his boy what they wanted to know, but that he could not spare time to talk to them, as he bad a hot dinner waiting for him. They then went to the boy, who said the stuff had been brought there that morning, and that he had broken up some of the coffins, many of which were nearly whole. They requested him to accompany them, and make his statement to the mag,istrate, which he refused to do without his mas terra unction, and the master said the boy should not go unless he was summoned.— Inspect-r Tarle ton corroborated this statement, and added that he saw the two men who had carted the stuff, and they told him that it had been brought from a vault in Friday-street, which they had cleared out about ten years previously. They said the carts had been engaged the night before ; that when they were loaded they were brought te the yard, and that some of it had been buried in the Cambridge road. The men expressed great wWingfiess to come forward and give the fullest information.—Waller, the beadle, said the authorities of the pariah wet e determined, if they could, to prosecute the perpetrators of such a gross and inhuman outrage on publ ic oeny he had himself assn a scalp, with red hair on it, kicking about. He felt sun that many of the coffins were almost new ones. He had .*sad the plates of some, and would shortly be able to dareverte when they had belonged. —The magistrate then ordered a summons to be granted for the lad in the employ of thepropeistor of the ground, andthe case was adjourned till this day kr forthm investigation.

GUILDHALL.—A kIaiRTLI:BB BIOANIIST.—James Bur goyne, a middle-aged man, was charged with intermarryinff with Eliza Josling, his former wife being still alive. His first marriage took place at Bishoptigate Church on the 17th of June, 1834, and his wife bore by him four children, when he deserted her. Before this period, however, he had been paying much attention to a young servant-girl named Josling, and on the 15th of last June married her at St. Bride's Church, Fleet•street. The parochial authorities interfered in the matter, and issued a warrant for his appre hension. His first wife was in attendance with her tour children ; she was not allowed to give evidence against her husband, but her mother, who was present at her marriage, deposed to the nee wsary facts. Eliza Josling. the young female whom the prisoner had since married, swooned away, and was carried out of court. On recovering, she stated that she had known him two years, and she married him, believing him to be a bachelor. Dlr. Alderman Sidney said the case struck him as a very heartless one.—The prisoner was removed to Newgate. his wo e house of Mr. Dalton, mar ,xl them, and he was put to fre waseonveyed home in an ex uer said she had been drinking _allowed, beaten, and kicked by the mob, when she threw herself under the protection of the police, as she felt her life to be in danger. She thought the prosecutor was one of the party when she struck him with the knife. She was very sorry for what had happened. She was fully committed. THAMES.—PeIIenNOUS BEItR/F.B.—CONIMITTAL FOR WILFUL MURDER.—JOhtI Ililliarrl was brought before Mr. Ballantine for final examination, charged with the wilful murder of T. Parker, late proprietor of the Veteran beer. shop, in the Whitechapel-road, and S. Jones, a child, aged three years, whose deaths were caused by eating of a pie in which berries of the at ropa belladonna, or deadly nightshade, were introduced. It will be recollected that the coroner's jury returned a verdict of manslaughter against the prisoner, who sold the berries on Saturday, the 15th of August, on Blackfriars-bridge and other places. Several persons, in cluding three post-boys who purchased the berries, were seriously affected. Mrs. Parker, the landlady of the Veteran beer-shop, who purchased a pint of them on the same day, introduced them into a pie on the Sunday following, of which she and her husband partook. The child Jones, who called at the house while Mr. and Mrs. Parker were at dinner, also ate some of the pie. Mr. Parker and the child died on the following day. Important evidence was given, for the purpose of showing that the prisoner must have been fully acquainted with the properties of the berries it the belladonna.—On tke prisoner being placed at the her, a number of persons were in attendance who had purchased the poisonous berries cf bim on the 16th of August, and *el greatest inter, at appeared to exist. Mrs. Parker, who was attired in d^ep moarning, and who nearly lost her lib, again attended. She has not yet reoovertd her health. The first witness called was Mr. J. Hiscox, who said he was a druggist and medical botanist, and carried on busi ness in the Bethnal-grecn-road. He had known the prisoner for five or six years or more as a herb gatherer, and consi dered him one of the most astute herb collectors in England. The prisoner was most accurate in collecting medical herbs. —Mr. Ballantine—ls he likely to be ignorant of the proper ties of the of ropa belladonna, or deadly nightshade ?—Mr. Hiscox—l should really think, from his very long experi ence, that he could not he ignorant of the poisonous nature of the berries of the deadly nightshade. I consider him the best gatherer of herbs and plants we have.—Mr. Ballast tine put some further questions to Mr. niacin, who said, if he wanted an opinion upon herbs, he should ask the prisoner's in preference to that of botanists, because his opinion would be practical and theirs would be theoretical. He knew the plant well. He had seen the deadly night shade growing in shady places, and when a boy he used to avoid the berries. They were generally understood to be poisonous. —Mr. Ballant ine: Can you say the prisoner was acquainted with the properties of plants ? Mr. Hiscox would not go so far as to say the prisoner was acquainted with the medical properties of plants, or their efficacy in curing particular diseases ; but he was of opinion the prisoner did know the berries of the deadly nightshade were poisonous. The witness then proceeded to state that dif ferent plants had their particular localities. He believed the prisoner was a clever man in the selection of plants and herbs, and should think he must know belladonna from any other plant.—Mr. Ballantine: If he knew the plant, could he be ignorant of the qualities of it ?—Mr. Moon : I should think not.—Mr. Ballantine: Did you ever order him to gather the plant of the deadly nightshade ? Mr. Him*: said he had not. He had been in the habit of u si ng the extract of the belladonna, which he obtained o f the drugghts who prepared the Iced cine.—Mr. Ballantine ex plained to the prisoner how the evidence affected him, and asked him if he would put any questions ?—The primates said he was quite ignorant of the berry altogether. He understood roots and plants, and knew what was good and what was bad, but he really knew nothing about berries. He never picked berries for any herb shop in his life. He ate as many as twelve of the berries on the day he sold a pint of them to Mr. Parker. They were as sweet as sugar and as nice as honey.—Mr. Ballantine: Was that after the young men in Whitechir told you they were poisonous berries ?—The prisoner: No young man told me anything of the kind, your worship.—Mr. Ballantine: We have it in evidence that you were cautioned, and that you afterwards continued to hawk the berries. Can anything be more hor rible 2—Joseph Lester, assistant to Mr. Hiscox, confirmed that gentleman's evidence as to the prisoner's knowledge of herbs and plants, and described him as the best herb gatherer in England. He should not think it at all probable that the prisoner would be ignorant of the qualities of the belladonna. He saw the prisoner on the 15th of August, when he called at his master's shop with two baskets ; one con tained berries, the other herbs. He asked the prisoner what berries he had in his basket; and he replied nettle berries. The witness said, "Do you call these nettle berries ?" and the prisoner replied, " They are hockh berries."—Mr. Ballantine: Did he say whortle berries t Lester: No, sir, he said hockle berries; but his first ewes- Mon was nettle berries. —Mr. Hiscox was re called, and laid , 1 Ise had seen the whortle berry, commonly called the bilberry, posing in Surrey. The berry of the deadly nightshade was a very different thing, and much lamr.—Lester staled dud the prisoner did not say the berries were for his outer on the 15th of August. They were separated from the stalk. Mr. Ballantine (to the prisoner) : Well, I shall commit you for trial for wilful murder.—Mr. Symonds, the chief clerk, said there was other evidence, and John Donegan, a police inspector, was called, who ssid the prisoner was brought to I the Denmark-street station house on the 20th of Augurt, in the custody of a police-constable, named Bird, of the B list lion, lion, who apprehended him in Strutton-ground, West- Waster. He told the prisoner he was identified as the man who sold the poisonous berries in Whitechapel on the pre vious Saturday, and he said he had never been in that neigh bourhood at all. The prisoner had a basket in his possession, containing blackberries,when he was apprehended. They were common blackberries.—Mary Ann Cox, a young woman, who appeared in a very ill state of health, said that she pur chased a halfpennyworth of berries of the prisoner, on the 15th of August, in Whitechapel. He said they were hackle berries, and recommended them strongly for making tarts and pies. She was attacked with severe illness after eating the berries, and was taken to the London Hospital, where she remained for several days.—The evidence of several other persons who had purchased brrries of the prisoner on the same day, and who were affected in a similar manner, was read over.—A woman, many years younger than the prisoner, here got into the witness box, and said he was • good husband to her, and bad never been in the hands of the polite before.—John Donegan said the woman was the prisoner's wife.—Mr. Ballantine : What of that ? she ha. a right to be heard. The worthy magistrate then addressed the woman, and said the prisoner was charged with selling poisonous berries, well knowing them to be so, and he could not help him. It was his duty •c. commit himi for trial for the wilful murder of T. Parker and S. Jones.—The witnesses were then bound over in the usual form. ENFIELD PETTY SESSIONS, SEPT. 5. Belize Messrs. E. Jones, Williamsg t rirman), E. Ni., and C. VIOLENT ASSAULT AT THE ROYAL MANUFACTORY OP SHALL ARNE, ENFIELD LOCK.— George Gowen, a Vim finisher, e m ployed at her Majesty's Armoury, for the manu facture of email arms, Enfield Lock, was brought up in our tody, charged with having feloniously amaulted Mr. 0. Lovell, inspector of small arms. The prisoner, who had been unable to attend for some days past, in consequence of severe injuries on his head,which he received during his attack upon the complainant, was allowed to be seated. Mr. Clarkson, MONEY MARRY. SATURDAY EVENING. We have had a dull day in the funds to-day, as customary at this time of year especially, when tine weather carries the leading operators out of town.

Prices generally remained with little alteration. Manchester and Leeds were heavy and declining. East Indians were worse, and quoted about Transactions were few, and the true run of prices can scarcely be gathered from such an inactive market. There was no change for the better in the Liverpool mar ket; Birmingham stud Dudley, and Liverpool and Orcaskirk were the only scrips in demand. Few transactions transpired at Manchester: prices were rather lower. _ The market was tolerably brisk at Birmingham; business was steady during the whale week, 'tithe slight depreciation in the value of Flock in some of the old Anat. There was an improved demand for railway shares at Leeds on Friday and Saturday, in cAnparison with what prevailed during the earlier part of the week; but prices did not improve in proportion. At Dublin quotations of railway stock were stationary the whole of last week. This was owing leas to general stability than the paucity of transactitus. LEICESTER AND BEDFORD RAILWAY.
