Ibpsrting futeUtgenct. LIVERPOOL SPRING MEETING. WZDNESDAY. The long looked for erearoonntry Derby, the Liverpool Grand National Steeplechase, is now • matter of history, and the manta of Meson. Topham' great handicap have been decided upon in the presence of an immense number of spectators. On Tuesday evening and yesterday morning the town became seen more thronged with turtles than on the morning of the opening day, Scotch and Irish representatives having arrived to witnees the big event ; Tipaterepolia," too, sending heavily laden trains, and Liverpudlians swelling the throng on Aintree to an unusual degree. The weather was more aneeable and sumenerlike, although in the morning rain thi ~atened to mar the moose of the proceedils, but fortunately only a slight April like shower fell, oat enough to lay the dust along the road. Every conceivab description of vehicle was pressed into the service to make the journey to the course and from ,about 11 in the morning till just before the decision of the , Grand National there was one continuous stream of vantages lining the route. Before proceeding, however, to the business of the day it may not be uninteresting to give • resume of the market movements in connection with the grateroarcoun try event. The wagering has been remarkable for the extreme dimness of the favourites, and the great test of the excellence of the handicap is that only a day or so ago three of the competitors were quoted at precisely the same odds in the price current. Chimney Sweep, after his performances at Warwick and Croydon, was elected to one of the posts of honour, many believing that the son of Ethelbert and Smut would he equal to the Aintree course, despite the peat impost of 12 stone. The support awarded to l'ennyson, his stable companion, of course had the effect of uniting the operations on the " Sweep," and at one pried last week the former actually passed the latter in the quotations. When the pen was pot through the " Laureat's " name, however ' a further anxiety was evinced to get on the " Sweeps who whospeedily advanced in the quo tations. Weever decl ared that not even excepting Emblem and Emblematic—the two sisters who won the Grand Na. tonal two years in succession for Lord Coventry—had be ever trained • better horse, the animal having been able to "do " all that was asked of him at home. The fast that Chimney Sweep would have the services of Jem Adana gave backers renew( d confidence, and on Tuesday night at the Washington the horse reached the top of the list, his quoted price being 100 to 15. Moose, since the " feeler " he bad in the Erdiogton Plate, at Birmingham, and having acquitted himself satisfactorily with Pearl Diver, met with good support, gradually coming into stronger favouritism. The performance of the Diver in the Annual Hurdle Race on Tuesday had the effect of giving Weeps another fillip in the returns, but there were many shrewd judges who backed Mr. Brayley's pair coupled, accepting 6to 1 about them. Their owner, Mr. Brayley, was very confident, and openly stated that, bar accidents, Mace' would win. Lord Poulett's representative was the Irish bred Lamb, given out to be the same horse as Nu on the flat, and capable of defeating Benszet easily, con ceding to the scion of the Flying Dutchman weight 1101 . 0nI country. A curious prejudice has throughout existed against The Lamb, and so recently as Monday Captain Kimbell laid 800 to 100 against him, believing that the 'horse was on too small a scale to win " a Liverpool." Lord Poulett's friends, however,were exceedingly sanguine, and the veteran Ben Land wetted that the " cerise and blue" would prove invincible on the day. Fan, the second to Cortolvin last year, has occupied a dubious position, having Leen "on rah" fur the past three weeks. The Duke of Hamilton was anxious to conclude &purchase, but tho negotiation fell though. Many anticipated that the mystery in which she was shrouded would, as An the last anniversary, be cleared up at the eleventh hour, and so it was, the mare starting at a comparatively short price. Daisy—the hope of the principality—was at one time at the head of the poll, but subsequently Mr. Powell's gelding was pared by several elff the others iu the quotations. Pearl Diver advanced to 1440 1 after his success in the Hurdle Rate, and at the Washington on Tuesday night Mr. Stephenson expressed willingness to either lay or take 1,400 to 100, but gleiblag came of it. Turculanum, who at the Grand Ithtional Hunt meeting at Bedford detested Cortolvin and Bislopton, has been in steady demand and entrusted with a lot of money. The Nun pleased everybody with her easy victories at Birmingham and Derby, and though else incurred • 101 b penalty—raising her weight to list alb—slaci has had plenty of supporters, sad on Tuesday night was level with Tusculanum in the betting returns. Ahsibiade, who got successfully over the course in 1865, has enjoyed a fair share of monetary sup port. Gana had the confidence of his owner, the Duke of Hamilton, his grace taking 1,000 to 30 twice about him on Monday. Tho Id-me accepted in the course of the same even ing was 25 to which odds were also laid against Captain Croestree. T he latter animal has been backed, perhspc, more than any other for a place, his owner taking 6 to 1 about him running in the find three. The retirement of Reporter caused Thalassius to advance • trifle, but 30 to 1 was always easily obtainable about Lord Stamford's repre sentative. Having thus gone briefly through the market operations, we will proceed to the incidents which marked the race. The attendance was tumrecedentedly large, every available point within the enclosure and on the course being crowded. As soon as there was • meeting in the ring, speculation on the big event commenced. The races preceding the Grnud National evoked but little excitement, and betting en the " National" continued till the numbers were exhibited. When the telegraph. board was hoisted it displayed twenty-one runners, the most conspicuous absentee being Traculannm, who was snatched at ten minutes past two, the horse having gone amiss. The only other scratching thday was Philosopher, through whose name the pen was put at a quarter-past twelve. Mr. Barber, as was anticipated, started • couple, declaring to win with Helen, whowse ridden by Mr. A. Good man , Thorpe leering Fan. Mr. Goodman was enabled tondo foe Mr. Barber owing to Tusculanum being scratched. Mr. Brayley started his pair, Moose and Pearl Diver, declaring Is win with lieu former. Chimney Sweep maintained hi position at the head of the quotations to the finish, leaving off at 7to 1. Moose and Fan were in equal demand at 8 to I, Tho Lamb being backed at 9to 1, which odds were booked In the course of the forenoon to hundreds of wends. Pearl Diver passed the Welsh representative, ' sad was backed at 10 to 1, • point mom being taken about Daisy, whom Mr. Thomas was retained to ride, upon Mr. Baehr. horses being withdrawn. The betting about the others will be found below with a description of the race. The contest was marred by one fatal cannily only. Chimney Sweep, whilst crossing the road before a quarter of a mile Lad been accomplished, stepped en a boulder stone and broke his leg, hie owner, Lord Coventry, onlering his immediate destruction. Fan refused the third fence, Thorpe finding it utterly im possible to get her over. The Lamb, who had always lain prominently in the front, took up the running • mile from Lome, and until the last fight of hurdles ran a good race with Pearl Diver, but always having the best of the struggle, won in the end easily. The cheering which greeted the winner on returning to the enclosure was some thing immense, and the horse and Mr. Edwards were seas. rounded, a large crowd following the animal sheet the ring. Lord Poulett, who is one of the stewards of the amain, was oonpatulated on all sides on his 83006113, and the popular Hampshire horseman, Mr. Edwards, who, It may be remembered, sustained a venous accident at Croydon in Lord Poulett's colours, came in for more than the usual amount of praise which the rider of the winner invariably receives. Pearl Diver, although not the selected of the stable, beat Moose, and • amine remark applies to Helen, who defeated Fan. Guns had the command of the field until after clearing the first fence, but be refused Becher's Brook, where Bunke, Thalassius, and one or two others fell and were not persevered with. The Nun came down at the water jump and went on riderless. Kingwood, who was a long way in the rear at the stand, also fell. Of the other um. potatoes Charming Woman and Slieve Cane refused, and so extinguished their c bacon. Alciblade, the winner in 1865, ran home third, jut in advance of Captain Croestree. Haden, Hall Court, and Huntsman's Daughter, walked in. Daisy was beaten at Valentine's Brook, which Mr. Thomas Lad tho utmost difficulty to make him take.

They had comely settled in their pieces, and bad only, in fact, reached the lea*, what (Money Sweep trod on • large stone that lay in the censer, and in coneequence fell and brake his leg. The accident caused immenev excite ment and eresternation to prevail the stand, .from which point Adams, the jockey, was seen first to vault out of the saddle, and next to return to the enclosure on foot. So serious was the injury sustained by Chimney Sweep, that Lord County, to put an end to the horse's suffer ings, ordered him to be shot, and this was immediately done. To return to the race. At the fleet fusee Slieve Carne refused and pulled up, the remainder negotiated the second fence, but at the °hauls immediately preceding Becher's Brook Fan and Charming Woman refused, and their chances being thus extinguished, they were not fur ther persevered with. Before Becher s Brook bad been actually reached Captain Crosstree deprived Gents of the command. At the brookiteelf the last-named refined, while Mentmore ' Thalawilis, and Buuke, in endeavouring to take the leap, fell ; and of this lo t , the latter only was persevered with. The field now became widely scattered, with Captain Cranium leading by sir lengths. No casualty occurred at Valen tine's Brook, nor did any alteration take place in the positions previously indicated. At the table jump into the course Alcibiade and Helen drew forward, Moose, Huntsman, and The Nan being corns distance in the rear. At the hu rdles just before reaching the stand Captain Cr:cadre* ran up to Alcibiade, and got over first. Pearl Diver, now running up, led the way over the water ; The Lamb. Captain Croestree, Daisy, Huntsman's Daughter, Alcibiade, Moose, and Helen following in the order named. The Nun, who was several lengths behind, came down at this point, and throwing Wheeler, broke away riderless. Following her came Buszke, Astrolabe, and The Plover— Kingwood, some distance behind the latter, jumping into the middle of the water. All got over the from past Becher'a Brook, and Alcibiade was now seen to take up the running, The Lamb and Captain Croestree close up, Pearl Diver and Moose next. Alcibiade, however, won gave way under the weight, and Captain Crosstree re-assumed the lead on the return home, The Lamb, Pearl Diver, and Ali:blade following closely in the wake. At Valentine's Brook Daisy was dead beaten, and the jockey had some trouble to get him over, while Buszke tired in the ploughed land, and was pulled up. No change occurred in the positions of the leaders till reaching the table jump the second tine. Here Captain Crowrine refused, but was soon righted, but Moose retired beaten. On gaining the course the issue was left to The Lamb and Pearl Diver, the two coming on neck and neck to the first hurdle, which they charged together. At the last hurdle neither hail the slightest advantage over the other, and it looked as though either might win. Both wersiridden with great determination, but Pearl Diver being settled opposite the stand, The Lamb drew away, and won by two lengths. Captain Croatree and Alcibiade made a race of it for third place, which the latter obtained by about a length. Astrobe and Helen, beaten a distance, walked in next.

Mr. Joseph Liaises, carom butcher, carrying on lazi ness in Aldgete, in the city of London, appeared before the Lord Mayor, to answer three summonses taken out at the indiums of the Solicitor to theTreastay, which charged him with offences under the Metropolitan Cattle Plague Order of August, 1867. in so far as he, being the propne. tor of a slaughter-house in Aldgate had failed to deliver to the chief officer in charge of the imlice.station in that district all the market passes and limns.s received by him during the weeks ending October 26, November 3, and November 24, last year. The defendant pleaded guilty. Mr. Poland, the barrister, appeared to eonduct the pro- secution on behalf of the Treasury, mid stated that the order in council under which the summonses were taken out came into operation on tho 15th of heFti o ember, the object being to make certain re. ris in order th at cattle might be traced into cattle market and out of it into the various ideughterhouses of the metropolis, so that if the male plague should break out the authorities would be able to ascertain from what place the cattle had come into each alaughterdiouse. The order required that ca the Sitar. day of every week the proprietor of each slaughterhouse should deliver to the officer in chirp of the police-station of the district in which the slaughterhouse was situated all the market puma end licenses received by him during the week. They were then taken to the Privy Council office and sorted, so that the history was thus known of each particular beast. The peat difficulty was to get gen tlemen in the position of Mr. halter to comply with these regulations, because they would not put themselves to • littletrouble to carry out provisions which were decidedly of a very useful character. It had been with great regret that these proceeding' bad been instituted, but this come had been rendered necessary in cmasequenos of the systematic violation of the order in council, and the reason the summonses had not been taken out earlier arose from the feet that gnat difficulty was experienced in tracing out each particular cam. He might Mete that when cattle were purchased at the market it was the duty of the purchaser to go into the aloe and get a pass to the slaughter-house, this document stating the name of the purchaser, the place to which the cattle were to be taken, and the name of the drover. In this cam the summonses referred to five jimmies, relating to 78 beads, which ought to have been delivered at the police station on the 26th October; to three pluses, relating to 34 besets, which ought to have been delivered en Nov. 2 ; and to four panes, relating to another lot of cattle, wh ich ought to have been delivered on Nov. 23. He might add that 26 passes were sent in on the latter date, all of them referring to weeks not specified in the summonses, and that the present proceedings were taken to let people know that they must send in their pates on the Saturday night, the penalty for neglecting to do so being, es his dship was probably aware, 201. for each offence. The Lad Mayor said the penalty was Si. for each beast when there were more than four. The defendant was therefore liable in an enormous sum ; he did not believe 5001. would cover it. Li; iterit Was the duty of the drover to deliver these wan ; they have been delivered regularly ever mina then. . - The Lord Major—Yon cannot throw the responsibility on your servant. I shall tine you 61. for the neglect on each occasion—Ma, October 26, Nov. 2, and Nov. 23—in a 11151., or in default, three months' imprisonment. Mr. Poland—lt may be useful to state that proceedings will be taken in each O&M when the parse are not — fie Lord Mayor alio dated that he would inflict a much heavier penalty if any more masa were brought before him. The defendant paid the fine. THE SUSPECTED MURDER AT BROMLEY. Thomas Partridge and John Deadman were yes terday placed before Mr. De Vas, at the Town-hall, Bromley, on remand, upon the charge of having been con cerned in the murder of one Maria Jackson, whose body wu found in a wall, in the neighbourhood of Bromley, at the beginning of last month. Mr. Alhop, of London, defended the prisoners. Mr. Inspector Tanner, who has charge of the case, was present on behalf of the police authorities. George Moss wee the first witness called. He said—l remember the Sunday morning of the 19th of January last. I was in bed at • quarter to one o'clock, and I heard `squeaks" first, and then cries of "Murder," in • women's voice. The cries proceeded from the middle of the road, opposite my window. I afterwards heard • cry and then a sound of something in the road. After that I heard another cry, proceeding from the book of my house. I heard the cry of " Mugge' plainly. I did not get out of bed, nor did I see anyone. I was present when the body of the deceased was taken out of the well, which stands at the back of house ; and according to my judgment the cries of " harder" came from that point. The well is about 90 feet from the back of my house. Cross-examined by Mr. Allsop—l was examined before the coroner, and I stated to him all that I have now said. I have been residing at Yuen's-hill about five mouths. I previously lived for five years in Morley's-road. Oa Sa turday, the 28th January. I left work about five o'clock. I afterwards went to the liking San about eight o'clock in the evening. I had nothing to &tab there. I was play ing at skittles. IWs these between ten and eleven, and I then went home. I did not go eat again. lam not quite sure as to the time ;it wee not twelve o'clock. I went to bed about a quarter or 20 minutes to twelve o'clock. I first heard Daises about a quarter to one. I first heard "squeaks" in the road as if there was • row, end after that I heard cries of " Murder." I said to my wife, " There's a row outside." She said, " Yon shall not get up." I did not attempt to get up. The row lasted about five minute,. I am quite sue the cries were in a woman's vOioll. I never heard any other voices. I swear to th at.

Williams asked the deceased what she had done with the halfroversigs, sod she replied, " I don't know ; I have hat it." The prisoners were both sober, but the two women seemed very angry with each other. _ __...... . . Grote-examined—Williams was very much annoy ed at the loth of the money, and said, " her, take her away." Henry Bennett—nth in Prospect-place, Massn's-bill I remember Saturday, the 18th of January. I knew the deceased woman by right. On that night I saw Deadman put her down the steps of the Three Hone Shoes. This was about 11 o'clock. I did not see what Deadman did after that. At 20 minutes to 12 I saw the deceased standing at the bar of the Tiger talking tr Kra Cooke. I don't believe she was drank. Then was no one with Daedalus when he put her down the steps. Cross-thamined—lt was the roughest night I was ever out in. I can't say whether it was very dark. I never took any notice of that. It was not my busistem. I could see across the road by the gas-light. I will swear that I did not say to Mrs. Partridp, " IS is disgraceful to have sash a women in your house; you are losing all your best customaz and I shall go too." I said nothing at all to Mrs. P artridge. By the Bench—l was in the Three Horne Shoes about half-past 10. She came into the tap-room. I did not see the policeman Simms. Ann Cooke (landlady of the Tiger publio-house) deposed —On the 18th of January last the deceased came to my house about 25 minutes to 12. She was not drunk. She had had some beer. She was crying booths* they had turned her out of her lodgings. She sail she had lost half a sovereign in Partridge's house. She had half a pint of porter and twopenny worth of rum in my hones. I noticed that then she had the ear-rings now produoed in her ears. She left my house at ilve minutes to twelve o'clock. She left my house when I closed the doors. I saw the prisoner Deadman that night. He came throes the road about a quarter to twelve, and looked in at the window.. He did not wane in. I did not see any one else in the house. I heard screaming that night soon after one o'clock. The screams appeared to come from the back of the house. I did not hear any words. I heard the screams twice, fol lowing quickly one after the other. The well in which the body was found is 'tainted at the back of my house. Ci I remember seeing • severe bruise on the flp of the deceased when she came into my house. I said to her, " Who gave you the braise on your lip ?" She said " Jack." I said, " Who is Jack !" and she said, "My husband." 13be asked me to let her remain there, and I told her I could not. She said, " Where can Igo to, Mrs. Cooke!" I said, " You had better go into the skittle•alley to sleep." It was very wet, rough, and stormy. I did not notice that my windows shook very much. I did not hear the cries of "Murder." I only heard screams. I would svrear that the screams were in • woman's voice. I believe they cams from the deceased, because I knew her voice. I knew that the well was an open one. The deceased had had something to drink, but the knew perfectly well what she was saying and what she was doing. That which I supplied bar with might have made her better, not worse. Deadman looked through my glass doors. I could see his head and shouldre. He had • light coat on, with large white buttons. I was asked at the inquest who the person was that looked through the door, and I was as confident then as I am now that it wee Deadman. Sarah Head, living at Mau 's-hill, deposed—l live near the house immediately opposite Partridge's house, and in which the well in question is situated. I saw a woman standing at Partridge's door at eleven o'clock that night, and I saw the prisoner Deadman push her down the steps. Deceased said, " I have lodged here for some time and Partridge said, " I do not care. Yon shan't lodge here to night." The deceased then went down the bill towards the nulway, and Deadman and Partridge both followed her. She said, " Don't follow me. I don't want you to follow me about." Deadman said, " I shalL" I wee at my gate when I beard the conversation. She afterwards returned, and said " I will stay by the house all night" Deadman said. " You shan't." She replied, " I will. If Igo into Bromley, I'll oome back again." The prisoners were quite dose to the deceased at this time. They did not touch her. I afterwards saw the deceased at a quarter te twelve in front of the bar at the Tiger'a Need.: afterwards saw her about a quarter past twelve talking to the mounted police-sergeants, Partr dE o, and Deadman. I was at my g ate at squirter put twelve, and said to my husband, There they are again." I heard her tell the sergeant that they had pulled her out of the closet, and Mrs. Partridge had called her a bad name. I said to Deadman, " Don't be too harsh to that poor woman ; you have a wife and children of your own, and you don's Imow what they may come to." I also said, " You have no right to push that poor woman." lb said, " I have not pushed her." I add, " Yea, you have." After this I went indoors, and live minutes afterwards deoesaed came and caked me if I amid let her a lodging. I said, " No, my good woman, I can't do that ; but d yongo woes to the bun, whaps you may get in there under shelter." Should lrould if they would let her alone. I after wards fancied that I heard a noise, She appeared sober, but Insult crying then. I sew her try to go up to the yard at the back of Partridge's house, but the prisoners pushed her back. " - Orose.easmined—lt was a very rough, boisterous, dark night. After twelve o'clock it rained. I can't say whe ther it rained before that. I think it had been • little wet. I was examined before the coroner. I can't my that I told the corona everything I have said to you to. day. I believe I did. ely gate is about Ti yards from Partridge's steps. I Ant saw the men and the deceased on the top of Partridge's steps about eleven o'clock. I swear I did not say before the coroner, "I do not know who pushed her down the steps." I said I did not know who put her out of the door. I was standing on the rap of wi l ts when I saw Madman push the deceased down Partridges steps. I remained at my gate while the pri soners ollowed the deceased down the bill. They went down shout ten yards. I did distinctly bear the woman say, " Don't follow ms." I woe about HO feet from her at the time. I also distinctly heard headman say, " I shall." When the de. ceased returned and went to the Tiger's Head, I don't know where the prisoners went to. I was at my gate from about eleven o'clock to twentpive minutes to one. The deceased was in company with the prisoners when I 'atom her. It was twenty-eve minutes to one when she oases up to my garden and asked ter • nt's lodging. I said to my husband, "Itis a shameful thing that poor woman should be turned out other home." Ann Brown, living at 2, Prospect-place, Mason's-ha deposed—On the night et the 18th of January I he ard loud talking maids WlDiams's.bonse.

As briefly repotted yesterday, s murder of sin =accoels? was sesesaitted ea Monday night at the house atteelsd to the parish church of Tod neorden. The inmecles et the parsonage were the Bev. A. J. Plow Mrs. Maw (scarcely eonvalescent after amain,- • "must*, saw," and three domestic servants, We l l wile" Ile auswiry maid. went by th e name a/ "Jona" Between tan and sloven o'clock Mr. Plow who had Mum& Ws from a wedded visit, was preperi ng to c o t: bed whin ha heard • violent knocking at the back . _On several previous occaidool he bad been annoyed of a young man named Miles Wesisea by the W, • ohmic weaver, to whom he apples te have gives ewes o ff ence by forbid ding him the bones. Weatherhill had found a sweet heart in ens of Mr. Plow's former servants, who bad been discharged 5 consequence, and she bad been sant home to her hien& near Tack. Sines her &mimed, Weatherbill had frequently threatened to have his revenge, and he had so pertiosaionaly annoyed Mr. Plow by hanging about the place, that • private watchman was engaged fora time to watch the house and prevent him from intruding upon the pounds. Hearing the disturbance at the back door, Me. Plow supposed another visit from Weatherhill. He bade the servants remain in the house while he himself went out at the front door to see for him self. On going roiled he saw Miles Westherhill dand le, against the back door. The moment Weatherill caught sight of Mr. Plow he cut, with • small axe he had in his hand, • cord which he had fastened round the handle of the door to prevent the door from being opened from inside. This done, he drew apistol from hie belt, and snapped it at Mr. Plow, but the cap missed fire. He then struck Mr. Plow on the head with the axe, un latched the door, and dragged Mr. Plow into the lobby. Whilst Weatherill was (still dealing desperate blows with the axe the three women servants came to the assistance of their master. They seized Weatherill by the hair, and so held him while Mr. Plow, who seemed stunned with the blows, and was staggering with loss of blood, mowed by the front door. One of the servants ran out at the same time to fetoh assistance. Of the two other servants Wea therhill singled out the nunery.maid Jane,whom he accused of " telling Wes" about he sweetheart and himself, and whomhe had previously threatened he woald be revenged upon. After locking the hall door and then fastening the back door he attacked the young woman with an axe, gashing her in so fearful • manner that one of the blows nearly severed her hand from the wrist. like ran scream ing into the dining-room, and endeavoured to close the door against Weatherhill, by • sgslnat it as well as she was able. She was overpowered, and Weatherhill, eontriving to insert his arm between the door and the lintel, shot her dead with a pistol. The women were summing in the utmost tenor, while Weather kill cried out, " Where's my Sarah!" The doors of the parsonage were fastened at the front and the back, and no habitation was within hearing distance. At this stage of the tragedy Mrs. Plow • nurse looking over the balusters down into the lobby, saw Weetherhill reloading his pistol After looking for the axe (which he appeared to have mialaid) be went into the kitchen, and when he came again into the lobby the nurse saw be had • poker in one hand and a pistol in the other. He put out the gas in the lower rooms, and went upstairs, still taunt ingly repeating the question about " his Sarah." The nurse met him at the bedroom door and tried to stop him, saying, " Those you want are downstairs," to which he replied, " I have finished them, but you needn't be afraid, for you've done me no harm." He pushed her on one aide, wont into the bedroom, and attacked Mrs. Plow. He drew off the bedclothes, fired a pistol at her where she lay, and, the shot not taking effect, he began to batter her about the head face with the poker. In the midst of the attack, the p arish clerk (George Stansfield) and two gentlemen whom the servant who had escaped had called upon for assistance, and whom the sur viving servant downstairs bad let into the house, made their appearance, seized Weatherhill with the poker in he band, and so rescued Mrs. Plow from imminent death. It was found that the bullet had passed through the bedding, the wadding remaining on the sheet. The pillow, with ail the upper part of the bed, was covered with blood. Mr. Plow, on escaping by the front door, went to the hones of M r. Greenwood, the organist to the church. This house is about 50 yards from the parsonage. At that time Mr. Plow had • pistol in his hand. The cap had been snapped, but the pistol had not been discharged. Before Mr. Plow could tell all that had occurred he fainted through lase of blood. Mr. D. N. Cockcroft, the surgeon to the family, was sent for, and with the assistance of Mr. W. Longbotham. who was also called in, the wounds were dressed. There were two large calp wounds, one on the top and the other at the back of the head. There was also • deeply-cut vertical wound between the temples. There were several lesser wounds and centurions about the face and body, and the left ear was torn from top to bottom. The rev. gentleman was conveyed back to the immerge, where he and Mrs. Plow now remain, both of them being in • very critical state. They were visited during Tuesday by many of the clergy of the neighbour ing parishes, and many calls ware made at the parsonage by messengers from the gentry in the neighbourhood. Mn. Plow is a daughter of the Rev. Dr. Molesworth, vicar of itoshdale, and patron of the incumbency of the parish church of Todmoeden. As to Weatherhill, it le mid that he had spent Saturday and Sunday in visiting his sweetheart at York, and it is supposed that after that interview he returned to Todmor den with the inaction of parpetratiog his terrific crime. He bought the axe on Idaoday afternoon, at the shop of an lemmatise named William Schofield, who hos since identified it as the one he sold to WeetherhilL The pur chase excited no suspicion in Mr. Schofield's mind, as Weatherhill, who was well known in Talmorden, was thought to be • young man of goof character and conduct. He used to interest himself in the Sunday school, and thus it was he became acquainted with his sweetheart, then in service at the parsonage. After his arrest in Mrs. Plow's bedroom, when he was being taken downstairs, he seemed to have quite recovered his composure, sad showed a remarkable degree of unooncern. He took a pipe from his pocket, mying, " I may as well have a smoke ; I sup pose it is the 'last I shall have, for I know what I've done I shall swing for." One of the persons who had him in custody was Mr. Joseph Oleddill, for merly a schoolmaster, to whom the prisoner now said, " I was one of your pupils, Mr. Glad • , and you thought me a good grammarian, but you didn't think I should come to this." Astonished at his coolness, another of those pre- NM tasked him if he was aware he had killed the house maid, to which he replied, " Aye, ahe's got • couple of bullets in her, for there were two in every pistoL" He re peatedly said they had no need to hold him, as he had no wish to escape, and would go quietly to the police elation. He said, " I with to harm nobody who sn't harmed me." This conversation took plam in the kitchen, and the prisoneroes if palmated by • mania for destruction, kicked over the kitchen table with his foot, and had to be restrained from committing further vio lence. On being subsequently taken to the police station and marched, he wee found to be wearing a belt tied behind with a piece of cord, and apparently made for the purpose he was about to execute. Then were four ilitikeles la it, in which he carried the It seems, a essepuison of the statements of rs iL everal en titaness, that he mist have bad four pistols. Two was (mad at the rear cd the paetaonage (where they probably fell during the Annie with Mr. ow), • third was wrested from him by Mr. Plow in the lobby, and with the fourth be shot the lawassmaid, and reloaded it before going upstairs to attach Mrs. Plow. On • further search the police found is his reshot' • quantity of gunpowder, • lot of bullets and am and some loose shot.

MINIM INKS and Heywoed o y Liverpool. in their monthly circular of Monday mi me d. wort, with • good deal of tubes en the conduct of sek ume and mannfastarers which led to.the peat . !peculati on ea 4 rise in cotton some week s ago , end WILICb is now bein g reviewed :—" To • great extent s inners have only the ta . selves to blame for the late inlation in value—for vs.n. Wore did not enter the field until the major part of eb bs admen bad taken place. Some adrenal upon the rates current at the beginning of the year was quite justified by the statistical position of the 'triple ; but If spinners had only displayed that caution and demi. spection which guided their dealings during the previous year, we should neither have witnessed the intense en. citement, nor the extraordinary advance, of the pag, month. The mistake made by the trade wee, in accepti ui large orders for forward delivery—orders which in the majority of eases absorbed by anticipation the product, of three or four months' work at f u ll tinia, and *bleb necessitated correspondingly extensive pruenues in Ug e market to cover, especially when it became apparent that prices were tending upwards. No doubt a ft er a lone period of comparatively dull trade, during which th ey hi almost in vain begged and played for orders, the blame. tion to accept them when offered was too great to be with. stead, w ally as they were offered at a time when the current opinion on both aides of the Atlantic was that tha American crop would be nearer 3 than 21 million balm. Three months ago (Nov. 30), foreseeing the danger which threatened the trade, we observed—' In view of the core. paratively small supplies available for consumption for the nut two months, spinners will act wisely if they r e d uce their operations within es narrow limits ea possible both here and in Manchester. Prim have fallen to so low a point that the acceptance of contracts of any magnit u d e. based upon the anticipation of a further considerable de. cline in the value of the raw materiel, would be far mom hlsardous than discreet.' Nor were we alone in oar ad. monitions; similar advice wee heard on all aides; WI strange to Nay, spinners and manufacturers were them. selves among the loudest of the monitors. It is to to hoped, however, that they will henceforth profit by th e lesson which they have received. Meet producers wif often be compelled to take orders for two or three weeks' production ; but they need not commit themselves to the extent of three, four, five, and even six months, which many did in December and January hat." Ileum Mee and Heywood think it still premature to withdraw bee estimate (and that of some other eminent houses in its cotton trade) of a crop of 2,600,000 bales of cotton. In fact, it is possible the quantity may be yet greater, sad they see the advantage in the nee of price. that it will prompt planters both in America and India to burry tam ward their crops as feet as possible to the seaboard, while it will stimulate production all over the world, and cam the supplies for 1.869 to be much larger than they other. wise would be.
