The gentleman fromßath, however, posted himself in a recess upon the stet's of the house in which the di nnt r was held, just previous to the hour at which it was likely to break up. For some time after the mass of the B:uea had gone away Mr. Borthwick aid i of ap pear. But at length he came ou' of the room wits a I arty of his friends, and Mr. Drummond, of 1) 11- krith, thereupon called out with a bud voice, " Why that is my old acquaintance Peter Borthwick, the bookseller." Mr. Borthwick, the member, appeared not to hear the observ.too, though it was made vie hold en ugh to cause great excite meat amongst the rest. The hon. gentleman, however, was °batty:el to turn pale. Mr. Drummond followed him down stairs, and repeated his rework as he stepped into his carriage. The next morning all Evesham was covered with the following " poster :" Affidavit.—Oeorge Drummond, late of the City of Glas• gow and now of the City of Bath, bookseller, maketh oath and sayeth, that Peter Borthwick, member of parliament for the boroush of Beesham, whom this d• panne saw yesterday *venire:, is one ar d the same with Peer Borthwick, wh wee in the year 1826 an acting partner in the stop and firm of J. and P.

But the Blocs of Eve sham were not to be easily staggered. They hid pinned their faith to Mr. Borthwick; they believed in him implicitly, end their belief was not to be shaken. In the course of his speech at this very din ner, Mr. Borthwick liar, indeed, alluded to the charges made against him. He had de tiered them " iteamous slaa•rs," adding, however, that "it they were true to the letter, they would nut impugn his moral character." To the cataterue of "infamous el endene," the Blues addeel the affidavit of Mr. George Drummond, bookseller, of Bath. At length the time o ime when the cause of " Borth wick e. Orb .uld and otherr, propriet re of the Bath Guardian," was to be tried at the Somer set Assizts. At the last moment, the trial was cud tenly postponed! The Bath Guardian, chanting riumph, declared that Mr. Borthwick had flinched. Mr. Borthw:ck, on the other hand, published a statement from his counsel, that a postpone ment had been rendered ueceostry in consequence of ' the course pursued by the defenderes. These cone tar allegations did not tend to allay the a xci•enieut with reference to this trial, and for another heir year specs heron as to its result continued to be rife it Bath, and every other place where Mr. lbrthwich happened to be known. At the following Assizes it was absolutely neces sary either to withdrew the record or to pion ed to 'riot. Mr. Borthwick cause the bolder were.. A jury was struck at Taunton to eecide upon the merits of this interesting case. The plaintiff had a e , rung bar, no lets • counsel than Mr. Serjeant Wane leading for him.

IRELAND. DULLIN, Dec. 10. Two ag• ncies of industrial improvement are at this moment receiving the most strenuous impulse in Ireland, and are, I am happy to sate, fast taking bold on the country. These are 'Reds husbandry and the cultivation of flax. As to the former, it is only strange how new the discovery e f its value seems to be. AMough a great deal has been recently said and written, chiefly by the practical instructors advo cating ha employment, still it would appear that the report e f one of those most useful industrial mission lined, Mr. Quin, hap, in fact, been the firet successful effort yet made to bring the subject under general notice. The Fermoy Union Firming Society, upon which Mr. Quin's valuable services were chiefly be stowed, has passed a series of resolutions regretting the ternticaeoln of his engagement, and stating sons of the benefits derived from it. Among other things they my : Wei deem it right to rut on record the fact that several members of the committee, and others who were at first strongly opposed to the system of spade labour, hive now become they sensible of the value of it, and have carnet it out practically to such an eater... as moralises by creating ex ter mire additional employment, to confer lasting benefit on the union. That h has keen provcd by the metier ce of members of tie committee and otters, that land of ave rage quaky has been nug to the depth of 12 inches, a t onal an expense of ld. per perch, or 13r. 4d. per statute awn that the labourers employed ur.der the superintend nee of Mr. Quin, and using the improved spade introduced by him have, after the filet fiw days, by alge to and from ls. to Is 24. per day (working tor 10 hours); in the short ups of the months ol D -cember and January, can, withou . I MI ulty, earn at least 9 I. a day each. The cultivation of flax is at present the most sue ceecul branch of Irish industry, and the extension of it from the northern to the southern province is one of th.t mort gratifying circumstances that have vet tended to dies:pate the gloom of our Irish prcnkects. The Cork papers continue to publish derails on the subject, suggested by the extreme enterprise in flax I culture about to ba undertaken in the south by Mr. Darden. The Southern Reporter says: • It is estimated that, ar present, thi re are produced in Ireland, annually, about 30,000 tons of fits, worth on an ge 601 a ton, and amow.tieg in the whole to the value of 1,500.0001.

OUR REPRESENTATIVE SYSTEM EVESHAM (CorrieueD). • Mr. Borthwick, although beaten at Eve4ham in 1832, continued to keep up his communiratioire with the town. " Toe Blues" were his friends there, and tee Blues in the interval between '32 and '35, were pitting strength at Eyestrain as elsewhere. The Re form /emaciation bad broken up, and new combina tion+ had been formed, of which "the Blues" took eve re advantage. \Veen Sir Robert Peel set abed forming his at:minis:ration, he did not neglect. to secure all rho .e members of parliament whose votes could be consi dered doubtful. Sir Charles Cockerel' was our of these. Throughout his long parliamentary career this gentleman had uniformly sided with the govern m nt of the day. He was one of Mr. Canning's small and feeble party in 1827. He voted with the Dale against Catholic Emencipatioe in 1828, and with the cabinet in favour of it in 1829. In 1832 he was in favour of Reform, and now in 1835, having been ap pointed en honorary member ot the Board of C ntrue he was prepared to give • " fair trial" to S.r Robert Peel's admuustration. Tnis was aa immense advantage to Mr. Berth wick and the Evesham Blues, because as Sir Charles Cock.relr's parry wu the strong party at Evesham, the whig candidate was placed in • position of area gonism to the Cockerelle, and chose who supported the or.e could not, it was presumed, ooescientioualy support the other. In addition to this drawback, Mr. Hudson, the sit ting member from 1832 to 1835, had other crusts of discoursgemeut He had given some offence by personal inattention to his friends, and by a want of that liberality which had distinguished the m.mberts for Evesham under the old system. Mr. Hudson dia not, upen this occasion, e• ter the field so early as his opponent. He exhibited }Hie confidence in his support re and they did not show any great en+ thuautem for him. The el. ction was fixrd to take plea on Tuesday, the 6•ln ot Jesuitry. On the night of Sunday, the 4th, Mr. Hudsor, to the surprise of his friends, announced his intention not to stand ! During 'the cl,y he hid gore taroulh his canvassing book, and he bad found, he said, that he was in a clear minority of 5, and thst defeat by a larger number was quite within tee range of pr whitey.

Accordingly, on Wednesday mornieg, instead ot a poll bee g taken, Sir Charles Cockerel' and Mr. Borthwick were declared the sitting mr bers—a return which we might have called a quiet one, but that it was attended by a most unpleasant personal encounter. During the canvass previous to the nomination, tome bids had b en publish. d at Petersham requesting to know who Mr. Borthwick was? It was Meted that he had heen an actor at the S trey Teetere ; but in reply to this a le• ter of the manager was printed, in which he a' erred that 'lr. Peter Borthwick had only played twice as an amateur performer. It was also averred that he bed been a printer at Dalkeith, and that his iresiness there had b,” n unfer wait ; but this also was denied by Mr. Bortewicker friende, and the wh le matter seemed to rest upon iris nuation. At the hustings, however, en influential elector of •h- borough thought it his duty to exemine Mr. Berthwitk on this subject. lie beked him if he was the same Mr. Borthwick who was in the firm of J. sad P.

" we do nst prote.e to 'mow how Mr. B wtheriek raised hi , sself suddenly Iron poverty to couspatetiv, In reply to all this Mr. Peter Borthwick, amid the triumphant cheers ot his friends. gave a stout, unhesi tating, and complete di teal to the charge. He declare' that " he was no be ksaler, nor piper seller, nor any tidier. He denied that Le Lad over hen a bat krupt. As to the church referred to he never had had anything to do with it." The tact was, some parties connected with him in name and tie. of near eneeaneeiei y were involved in difficulties by the panic ot 1825. If, in such eircumetances, he gave his mewl to pay the debts of persot.s in such distress—not his d bee, hut theirs—was he to he blamed ? He hail paid all his debts In the affair, although not liable at all. He was a bookseller, a paper-seller, or arty s. Iler. He gave his name to those persons his whom he was co n nected. Th, y never were ankrupts. He pledged his honour as a gent'. man. that what he acid was true. He never hed anything to do with the Church referred to. He never was Bible to be warded from P. * • He declared moat a llmrly that 'he facts were as he had rtat..d Mr Borthwick then elo quently alluded to Mrs. B irther , ek, who w.l present, and much of whose property, a. well es his own, had, he said, been suriflud in an act' f kindness. It appeared that the original suggestion as to Mr. B rrthwick's earlier career had come to Evesham through the medium of a paper called the Bath Guardian, then under the editorship of Mr. Cyrus Reddrog. This paper had made the statement in a letter bearing the signature or "Umbra, the Rig , amuffin," which letter was apropos to a report that Mr. Borthwick, who then resided at Claw rton, near Bath, was about to be put in nomination for that city. 1 1 Mr. Borthwick pledged himself to prosecute. the Bath Guardian for the publication of a libel. The Blues loudly cheered this resolution, and others tock good care that there should be no escape from a fulfilment of the pledge. Accerdirglv writs were issued against the publisher of the bath Guardian. The Bath Guardian being a well-supper ed liberal paper, and having reason to believe itself in the right, accepted boldly Mr. Borthsrick's 1r gal challenge, and pleaded the truth of all its facts as a Justification. The Bth Guardian, it must be raid to its honour, set an exempla to the press in this matter, at a time ween • prosecutions for libel were more to be feared than they are at present, It spared no experts) to get proof f every allegation, distant as Dalkeith was from Trenton where toe cares was to be tried. And week after week the Bath Guardian returned to the charge, affirming the truth of every word that it had pubeehed and daring Mr. Borthwick to go to trial. Whilst this case was pending. the Blues bad a fes tival at Evesham in honour of Mr. Borthwick's elec tion. It took place on tie 4:h of June, 1835. The Bath Guardian thought 'ha • very admirable oppor tunity of getting e vidence, and at tie same time of annoy ing Mr. Borthwick ' s friends at Evesham. There .recording' y came over from Bath, a person of the name ot Drummond, who h.d been brought to that city from Drlieltb, where he had known Mr. Peter Borthwick intimately. Previous to the dinner an elector of Evesham addressed a note to the chairman, offering to introduce to the meeting "a getarman from Beth, and a native of Scotia' el, who h»s ii.timaely re Tre'n•ed with Mr. Peter Borthwick, the bookseller and stationer at MURDER IN PEURROICESHIRE.

The evidence •Oducied before the magistrates was as follows : Henry Vittle, a lad, depleed—l live at Westfield, in tits perish of Roaems,ket. t know Wiltiam Morgans, now pre sent. On Weinesday last I slept at his house. Next morning he said, " Henry. pat some water on the fire to b IL" I did so. He then WO to Jane Voile, "Put some Imp, and Finger into the water." fens did an, and emptied it into a crop for him to drink. He took a mouthful, and said there was poison in Jane Vittle said, " Why did you think se ? She then acid to me, "Go down and •ake some Ashes out of the lower room firri.clace." As I was coming up therefrom I had the little trowel in the haek...t, ante the prisoner cauglit hold of the trowel, which ate k in some rods of the basket. I let go the basket, and he went into the hsyduerd, and battered a eait there, and broke it in. Jane Vinte went out to him, and said, " Leave the cask alone, and go in with yon." He then lifted no the trowel, and knocked her somewhere about her head Ste put her heeds on her head sad cried " Murder." I only saw him strike her one*, wesen the trowel broke in wining her. He toils attempted to strilt. me. I ran, and he aimed a blow at me which did not take effect Jane Vittle did not tell when I saw the blow meek. He ran alter me over a little burgage field, and on my getting over the he"ge, he made auutber blow at me, but did Lot succeed in striking me. He folio. , ed me further. I rem to my home, which was a field :nether end told Josiah Oriellehs that Mr. Merging was murdming Jane Vitt's; 'clerk G.-Milts and Jonathan, my brother, rte., up to his house. I went up elan, and my brAtter Thomas. Judah was a servant with Mor e au.. Josiah ran into the heyguerd, and then came to me, rod riga red me to go to W-et sty for some of the men. Oa m; going into the Lay guard I saw Jane Vittle lying on the ground ; she was quite deed ; her need was meshed ati to pieces and covered wit blood. Honey Llewellin deposed—l live at Rosehill, in the pariah of H. *mak t. On fhoisday morning ley ab art heir past eight o'clock, I was in my field , about 30 0 or 400 yards from Dlorganie house, I heard the screams of a female and went towards the hoes-. On nay going into the yard, I met a boy who informed me that William Meng us had killed Jane Vital. 1 'Aced whoa the body was, he said in the haystuerd. I west there and saw the body el the giillying on the ground on the face. 'there was a flog lying there also. (It subs, queered,' appeared that the pris.aser had seen cod this aaimes life at the time time.) I toted the handle of a trowel beeide the body. Afterwards, on searcbi. g, I Mond the iron part; there was heir on it. I then ran slier Mo and found him in custody. I never considered hint a man of sound intellect. He said to me, I have killed the hedger. I have Suited here number of years. He 're :erred to Jane Vittle. Mr. It. H. Byers deposed—l am a surgeon at Milford. On Thunder morning list I was sent for, shunt nine o'clock, to see Jane Vittle 'the we-stager did not say eh • war dead. I found her dead, but still warm, and t.looll was flowing from her breast.

The heal wet literally eme.hed, and the brains, and al.o a potion of the Asa, were on the ground. The magistrates said that as the prisoner sae evidently in a stet.. of lie oily, they should d cline putting to him the usual questions. He was then rem .vet by U.* constables.

TOE NiI:ROES IN HANLEY [ann.—Since the en's examitiatk-n on Friday last many particulate haw transpired. having a tendency to fix a vast amount of guilt upon the prisoner, apart from the awful charge now pendit g meeinst her. In 1842 the prisoner was tried for the artful muruer of an illegitimate child, and up m that MA sion she was convicted of co• cealment of birth, and ten kneed to six months' impriaonmet t. She was then living In a family at Laytm. in &sex, as cook. In this case the Mild was alto pecked op in a b a, which was addressed to the porter of the Kouteford Union, and from inquiries made by the police the f. awarding thereof was traced to the prisoner. In 1844 a box, having in it ft dead intact, newly b..rti, was sent to Mr. Thomas Burton, another insen bet of the family. An inquest was held upon the body, but in the tours- of the investigation gone into nothing tten attired wok& could fix guilt upon any party. Taking all these circumstances into consitteratit.n, very little doubt can exist as to the peimner having murdered no fewer than three o Maven. Yesterday Mr. Anderson, the governor of Ilford gaol, had att interview with Mr. Long, the magistrate, to whom he made known some particulars connected with a farmer . xemioation of the prisoner. It is stated that during the short time she we. in the family of Mr. Ruth she ap• peered to be remarkably serious and reserved, sad that wheat', r orortunity offered s'• employed her tame in reading the Bible, the Prayer-book, and other works of • religious and moral tendency. A BOY LOST IN A WOOD.—OD Thursday, the 29.1, tilt , the adi of Jobs Clondsnale, an apprentice with W.

Friday, Saturday, Ind Sunday were all spent in eain search ings, tor no body could be bound, ticitigb it wits evident that he must have perished. Oa Mammy the poor boy wees found in a wood not far from the lace by which he left Flus tered. It was clear from the position in which he wee lying that he had fallen down and dud without • struggle, having, no doubt, wandered as long as suing. k was in him. An inquest was held on the bony at Fiosthwaite, on Tuesday, and a verdict returned in accordance with the above C.c.s Seance as it may appear, the unfortunate circumstance is sottricuted to a ghost story." la the higkersy between Bualand and Foistheraite there is • place believed by the thencoutry folks to be " haunted," and sOoner than go that way poor lad had ventured over the ale in which he perished.
