Our New York correspondent writes on the sth blatant : " The negotiations between Sir Henry Bulwer in relation to the Nicaragua affair, amount, as I am informed by a high diplomatic character, to be in this shop only : Mr. Clayton Bret primed to negotiate. Sir Henry said he had no instructions, whereupon the former sketched a plan of the treaty, which has goal to England, and which the latter expects will be returned to him, with authority to accept. By this akekton treaty Tiger island is to be given up, old we do not wonder at it, since the acquisition of insular territory, or territory not contiguous to, or a pert of, ear North American continent, as evidently outside of our establiehrd policy.

Truths Daily New.) ANN Mutiny was the wife of James Mrnrrr, a tarueock of the Est London Waterworks Company, residing in the neighbourhood of Clapton. She had been married eight or nine years, and had five chil dren, three of whom are living. Up to the hour of her hosband's death she had maintained an teem pasty character : the husband, on tke contrary, was a oufirmed drunkard and otherwise given to disso let* habits, by which the domestic happiness of his wife was embittered. On the 19th of January ANN SI num ase d twopennyworth of arsenic at the shop of a purchase d to whom she was well known. She declared on her arrest and since her conviction that she purchased this poison to put an end to her own life, which her husband's excuses had rendered insup portable. On that night, however ' he returned home utter. Her fastfading attachment to her helpmate, to bee children, and to life, were re-awakened, and she refrained from putting her design in execution. The arsenic had bet n throws into a cupboard, and there, she says, she left it. On the 24th of January the husband was seined with vomiting of er partakirg of some broth and hot tea early in the morning. He was seen several times by his Meads a^d brother workmen hotness eight and half-past ten. He went out with one of them to his ordinary duty, drank rum-and-water and brandy to turn the sickness, bet returned home at eleven, still unwell. At this !lee a breakfast of beef and potatoes was prepared for him. He could not est it. A Moil came in and the husband desired him to eat this ford if he liked, which be did to the las . . morsel without experiencing any injurious effects. J A Ntes Menairr then asked his wife for some gruel. She had no oatmeal in the house, but immediately sent out and purchased some. She made the greol in the presence of her husband and 1 ie friend, and the former ate a considerable por tion of it. 3lroarrr's illness still continued. He was seen vomiting at 12 o'clock and 1. At 5 o'clock a brother her called and saw Mrs. MERRITT, who told him husband was very ill in bed , and asked him to go upstairr, which he did. About the same time the wife endeavoured, without success, to obtain the at tendance of a medical man. Between this time and 8 o'clock she sent for three neighbouring surgeons, neither of whom came : one of them sent two pills. At 9 p.m. Mrs. MERRITT called up her next door neighb.ur to render her assistants. This woman's name was Gturrr. She and her husband both ease ictr Muairr's house and went up to the man's bedroom. The man GILLETT was begged by Mrs. biLitiarr I. fetch a surgeon, which he did at half past tee. The surgeon saw the man and prescribed two more pills, and at half-past 12 Juni Meitarry died. On a post mortem examination, 81 grains of arsenic were found in the stomach of JANES MERRITT. Sus picion fell upon the wife. It was enhanced by the fact that her husband was a member o f a burial society, and that she received from the society Dome money towards his funeral expenses the morning following his death. But on the otter hand, it is established that the death of her husband would have done nothing to benefit Mrs. Muterrr's circumstances. Whilst he lived he was receiving 30s. a week wages. His wife, after his death, had co hope for herself and her three chil dren but the workhouse, to which the orphans have since been consigned. Besides this, the meant of payment upon SIERRITT'S death was, on the 24th of January, 71. 100, whilst had he lived only to the 2nd of February, Mrs. MERRITT would have received 101. So the ease stands : a case of circumstantial evidence, resting upon the one main fast of the purchase by the wife of the poison which occasioned death. There is sot one fact established, and scarcely one suggested, which goes to the administration of the poison by the wife. Her defence is very simple. She had thrown the arsenic carelessly into the cupboard. In the same cupboard there were some soda powders which ter husband was in the habit of taking in the morning, under medical advice. She presumes he took the arsenic instead of one of these powders. The drug gist acknowledged that they were both twisted up in the some sort of piper, and it is to be borne in lied that the morning must have been dark at half past seven on the 24th of January. The depositions taken before the committing msgis trate in this case were vague and insufficient. At the trial the case was opened by Mr. BODKIN very moderately, and with a view ratherto a verdict for man slaughter ttaa murder. The woman had no friends to defend her. A few hours only before trial the attention of the Sheriffs of Middlesex was called to her case, and copies of the depositions were humanely handed to Mr. Ci.sessoo. Such were the dined outages under which the case was tried. The foots we have narrated being proved, Dr. LETTIIIBT, of the London Hospital. was called to give evidence as to his analyse of the contents of the stomach. In the course of his examination he hazarded an opinion that the arsenic which occasioned death had not been in MEsaires stomach more than four hours at the utmost. This statement made a strong impression upon the mind of the Jude. When the examination in chief had concluded, Sir F. POLLOCK very closely interrogated Dr. LETHIEBT SS to his grounds for such opinion. "Are the data upon which you rest your opinion at all safer Quite safe," said Dr. LISTEIVIT, and he then went on to state why. According to his theory, be rmes digestion is usually effected in a period under four boars, the arsenic ta ken more than four hours previous to the death alums Maos.rev would have from his stomach into his intestines , which it t iled not due. Ergo, the poison which occasioned death had been taken only four hours before death. Now, mark the consequenoes of this evidence. The fan was in bed from 5 o'clock to half-put 12, when he died. The arsenic was in a cupboard, In a room below. It follow., therefore, that it must have been administered to him, not taken kaM by him. And if ad ministered to him, by whose but by We wife's? The learned judge took this view of the case, and charged the jury aemadiagly. Dr. LETIIIIIT, he said, has propounded the malt of sr:Usti& investigation into this subject. If he was to be believed, little doubt remained upon the ease; if, on the other hand, there was any question as to his evidesee, there was nothing against the prisoner but the suspicion attach ing to bar purchase of the arsenic. The jury, relyiag spoil Dr. Lemma's evidence, found a verdict al guilty, accompanying it with a recommendation to muff on account of the prisoner's good character. See what a superstructure is erected upon the con cision that the poison which maxims' death was administered only four hours before death occurred. This woman, in effect, bas been found guilty of a series et suaressive administrations of poison. Awned= Dr. Lunsav, she most have administered about sight in the evening—though there is net the slightest evidence that the damaged took anything whatever at that time. According to the min se up far the prosecutioa, she administered arsenic in the gruel which her husband drank at twelve o'clock, — though that gruel was mixed in the presence of the dsseased sad el his friend, with oatmeal which the THE EXPRESS, . WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 20, 1850. wife sent out a child to purchase at the time. And prior to both thee. administratiors, if the accused administered the arsenic at all, she most hare admi u:stered it early io the morning—or else how do we account for the vomiting. which are proved to have commenced at eight o'clock ? This being the result of this extraordinary trill, let us see what follows. ALPHA, a humane correspon dent of the Daily News, calls attention to the case as ore which rests upon "a mere matter of opinion." Upon this, another ocrtespendeet, Ben, who evi dently writes with the authority done well versed in the duly of poisonous peopwWs, conies forward to declare his entire dissect from that opinion. It is, says he, mete hypothesis and surmise. ORFILA and CHRIIITISON, two of the best authorities en anemic, adduce awe entirely opposed to it. " Abundance of evidence exists, that by spasmodic action the lower orifice of the stomach may refute to permit arsenic to peas readily into the intestines: that being a deems, veraringly soluble substance , it may not be die charged even by vomiting; and that therefore the whole train of symptoms in this case are reconcile able with the statement of the widow, that her hus band took arsenic early in the day in mistake for a soda (not an effervescing) powder, such as he was in the habit of taking." " Dr. LETHEBT'S assertions," RAJA BETA, most emphatically, "are at variance with the results of the experience of the greatest medical and chemical authorities on the phenomena of poison ing by arsenic." Such, then, is the position to which this remarkable case is reduced. It rests on "an opinion." That opinion is publicly declared to be worthless. To bang a woman at all is bad enough, but to hang ber upon • worthless" opinion" is not to be thought oL IRELAND. DIIILIN, MARC'S 19. The proceedings at the doomed court of Dublin Castle derive a special interest from the circumstance, that each anoirenary mat there is now to be the last of the series. Last night there was the lasi annual ball in celebration of St. Patrick's Day, and the honour of being among the guests was eagerly sought after. There was mire than the usual eclat attendant on the occasion, and the company com prised wee thirteen hundred persons. Prince George of Cambridge and the Marchtonese of Drogheda led off the ball to the air of " St. Patrick's Day ;" and the ladies, according to the special regulation of the court on the occasion, all wore dresses of Irish manu facture. The festival of St. Patrick's Day, so far as I have been able to ascertain, escaped the usual &Dictation of party processions and bloodshed, thanks to the New Anti-Processions Act and the Lord-Lieutenant's proclamation. The precautions taken by the autho rities to prevent any illegal proceedings on the occa sion are described as having even exceeded the neces sity ; and in some places the people wets amused by the arrival of large detachments of constabolarT from remote districts to prevent prt • cessions which had already been discontinued there for the last generation. 'That strenuous and suc cessful efforts have been made to prevent patty displays on the side of the northern Ribbonmso, on this occasion, is however a mattfr for congratulation ; as it is bat too natural to expect that the total i pubity which the Orangemen have been suffered to enjoy for the terrific outrages and murders perpetrated by them at Dolly's Brae, has left a smouldering sentiment of revenge in the bosoms of the rival party. At the Antrim &seizes, the judges have without hesitation rescinded the order of the assistant-bar rister for suspending Mr. Res, the attorney. The act of Mr. Gibson, the assistant-barrister, attracted much attention some months ago. The supply of potatoes at the principal markets throughout the country is unusually great. Although the demand for seed is considerable, the quantity held over for that purpose appears to have been excessive.

A second edition of the Edinburgh Courant relates the discovery ot • horrible occurrence at Juniper-green, about five miles from Eliuburgb, where Dr. Wilson, • rni d.nt practitioner, was discovered lying dead in the kitchen of his own house—his head beaten in by some heavy instru ment. In the passage was also found the body of Dr. Wilson's aged mother, upon whom similar violence had been else exercised. An investigation immediately took plan, and a person was arrested ca suspicion ; bu: further particulars did not transpire. It is raid that, at a late hour on Sunday night, a man named Pearson, who is undentood to have been in confine ment in • lunatic asylum, ailed at the house of Dr. Wilson for medicine or medical aisles. The doctor prescribed a simple don, of which one half was to be taken that night and the remainder next morning. Dr. Wilson having just returned from visiting his country patien - s, left the man at the door, whi'e he himself and the maid-servant went to the stable to put up his horse. Upon his return to the hones Dr. Wilson found the outer door locked, and, upon knocking, wry immediately admitted. This appears to have been observed by the maid-servant, who then went to her manes house in the neighbouthocd, where she usually slept. The precise circumstances that followed within Dr. Wil son's ►ouse can only be matter of conjecture. It is said that the man Pearson who had called at the house the previous night, is the penon now in gaol upon suspicion of ' the murder; and it is added that he had passed the night in the home, sleeping in lin. Wilson's beJ, having first, it is supposed, burned his clothes. lie was found naked in bed and sound asleep.

OXFORD CIRCUIT.—STAFFORD, MARCH 18. Berea. MIL 81111011 PLerr. BURGLARY AND BUIGaRGUS ATTACK UPON TIM INftersa. Samuel Bates, a young man of respectable appearance, aged 18, was indicted for breaking and entering the house of William Vym, at Hanky, in the parish of Stoke-upon- Treat, and cutting and wounding the said William \ryes, Mary Yrs, and Samuel Mountford, with intent to kill or do them same grievous bodily harm. Mary Bradshaw Vyse, wife of the prosecutor, stated th-q she had retired to rest with her husband a little after 12 o'clock on the night of the 6th of October last, when she heard a noise below in the yard, and upon calling out to know who was there the prisoner informed her that he had seen three men jump over the wall of the yard, ard recom mended her to look to the doors and windows. She knew the prisoner's voice, as be wee the son of • neighbour and had often been in the house, and, after thanking him, she went down stairs and found all was safe. Half an hour after wards she was again di.tcrbed by • noise resembling the breskiag of • window. She immediately got up and went down stairs in the dark, and, on opening the door at the bottom of the stairs, was cut on the throat with some sharp instrument, a portion of flesh being cut away from the chin to the throat, The prosecutor, an elderly man, billowed by his nephew, Samuel Mountford, had by this time reached the door, and the former rushed between his wife and her assailant, when he received a severe cat in the face. In struggliog with the man the prosecutor took a cap from his head and placed it in the bosom of his 'shirt, when he received another severe wound across the neck, also others on the shoulder, side, and across the fingenof the right hand, numbering altogether ten. Mountford was also severely wounded on the cheek, the flesh being severed from the cheek bone down to the month. Whilst this was going on Mrs. Vyse ran to the outer doer, and raised an alarm for assistance, when the man rushed peat her, and made his ems e, followed by Mountford, who, however, tailed to overtake him. MOT medical aid had been procured the cap was examined, and, suspicion falling upon the prisoner, Mountford went to hie father's house, about fifty yards distant, and, on inquiring whether he was at home, was glowered in the negative. Evidence was produced to prove that the prisoner had a few weeks before bought a razor from a cutler, and on the previous tt night had exhibited a stick, which was found at the of the stairs in the prosecutor's house. Ab out two o'clock the same morning, the prisoner went to the house of a person named Hater, at Shelton, sad inquired whether he would let him lay in the houseplants until morning. Hater at first refused, but afterwards came down Main and let him in. Between seven and eight o'clock the same meewing, the prisoner called Qatar up, and requested him to Isad him a coat and asp, and having obtained these he left the Muse. During the morning the wife of Oster found in the ab‘kole underneath the grate • ran ,r with blood on it, *Wit was produced, and which was stated to resemble the am the prisoner bought of the cutler. After he left Hater's boos the prisoner proceeded to the police station, and made a eimplaint that three men had beaten him during the •Ipkt and taken his coat and cap from him, whereupon the mot and rap found at the prosecutor's house were shown to Ma, and be immediately owned them as those he lied lost. A• epee gasket knife was also found at the prosecutor's been Imre& with blood, and likewise some hair, similar in cubes M the prisoner's, on the eeeement of the window. The Weeny was then taken into custody, but denied the &arr.

POO was indicted for stealing • piece of lead Take 6d., the property of air Henry )Kea: and Co. Mr. Payne appeared for the prisoner, and In his address to the jury adverted to the bill now before parliament for extesdiag the summary jurisdiction of magistratre. Were that bill then in operation as the law of the land, an ex amination of the calendar of prisoners for trial at this session would show that one-third of them would have been deprived of trial by jury—a . system that was the admiration of the civilised world, and imply because the value of the property did not exceed sr. Trial by jury was one of the greatest blestinp this tenantry enjoyed, and he was much surprised that any Orals should have been directed' towards its curtailment. The learned Judge fully concurred in what had fallen fres the learned counsel upon this subject. The case which was thew under consideration made the number he had tried in that court 16,890, and even supposing that were the only court In which he bad sat as a enteral judge, the trial of that number of cases might easily be supposed to have given him some experience as to the sidvawages which were con ferred upon society, generally, by trial by jury. Like the learned counsel, he considered that system one of the greatest blessings enio7ed by Englishmen. He did not say that it was free from impertection, but he should warmly advocate its maintenance until wine plan more fres from objection, and equally beneficial to ail clues' of the community, were promulgated. The value of the particular pro petty an individual was charged with stealing in no way affucted the moral of the crime. Where the property was of the value of sd. the principle involved was precisely the saute as if it were of the value of .5,0001., or even more. The learned judge then mentioned acme in stances in which vast cruelty and injustice had been visited by summary conviction upon partite, whoa* innocence, had they been tried by jury, would have been fully established. There was uo man infatible, and formery the weakot as and corruption of the judges were notorious. Trial by jury was, however, an effective tur to any such things in the pre sent day • though, and most happy was he to be enabled to lay it. the judicial bench of England bad for a long series derma been distinguished for the independence, the learning, the integrity, and utter incorriptablity of those by whom that bench was and had been adorned. The legal courts of this country were public tribunals ; the acts of the judges were open and under that, public eye, the bar, the jury, and the public being present, and keeping an ever watchful supervision upon all that was said and duos. This was not se in days byegene, in the days of Oliver Cromwell and Charles 11., the judges of which periods were to • great extent typified by the infamous Jefferies, and it was not until the judges became lentil ritable by the crown, that they had ac quired that independence which had now become the &stint> tive characteristic of the English judicial bench. He might be pardoned fur saying that they had an illstrious instance of the estimation in which the judges of the land were held by the people, in the retirement from • high and distinguished position, of • nobleman, whose superior as to honour integrity, learning, ability, entiehtened patriotism,. elo quence, and independence, history itself could not furn ish. A judge of more brilliant trilints—of sterner incorruptibility— or of greater acquirements, than Lord Denman, upon the English bench, and he was extremely happy to have been afforded that opportunity of paying his bumble tribute of praise to one, with whom, in early life, he had had the honour to be associated, and one for whom he had always entertained the warmest possible admiration and esteem. _ _ . Mr. Payne said he wu wiry pdad that it wu his remarks that had called forth these observations, is the propriety of which all world heartily concur. Toe prisoner was convicted, and sentenced to three months' hard labour. THE POLICE COURTS. MARYLEBONE. CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHT6S.—George Fox, in the employ 01 Mr. Ro.kstane, a filnnonger in an extensive way of business in Upper Berkeley street, was placed at the bar on the charge of having caused the death of George Gill man, a stableman in the service of the Hon. Robert Burke. Mr. Woolf appeared for the prisoner. A great deal of evidence was gone into, and it tended to show that on the previ du morning, between eleven and twelve o'clock, a dog belonging to deceased laid hold of the prisoner's trowsen ; he (prisoner) expressed himself with some warmth with respect to what had taken place, and some bl.iws between the parties ensued; there were three or (oar rounds of fair stand up fightiog, and in the last raund deceas , c 1 fell with his head upon the pavement. He, however, was able to walk home, but in three or four hours afterwards he died from the injury he had received. Mr. Woolf eross-examined the witnesses, end called highly respectable parties, to prove that the accused was generally speaking a mild and inoffensive man. Mr. Broughton, after carefelly reviewing the whole of the evidence, came to the conclusion that it was his duty commit the prisoner for the manslaughter, sad remanded him till Monday next. Bail was proffered and accepted for his being forthcoming on the day named. Saxamson.— Three young urchins, named Rumba', Wright, and Baton, the eldest of whom was no more than ten years of age, were ch.rged with having broken into the church of St. Stephen the Martyr, Avenue road, St. John's wood, and stolen silver sod copper money from a box which they had wrenched from the porch. The discovery of an entry having been effected was made by Brand 199 8, who while en duty saw that a pane of glass had been taken out of one of the windows of the church, the opening thereby made being sufficiently large to admit of the introduction of • boy. He (the officer) immediately made a communication to Mr. Nightingale, the clerk, and on both of them going over the sacred edifice, they found two of the church doors open ; they also discovered in • closet connected with the building the box, from which the whole of the contents, supposed to amount to about 16s , had been taken. The prisoners were ultimately taken i..to custody by the constable brand, who felt satisfied that they were the guilty parties. They had been charged before under nearly similar circumstances, and two of them were convicted. The juvenile delinquents were asked what they had to say, and each accused the other of being the instigator of the robbery. They admitted having shared the plunder. They were ell committed to Newgate for trial. THAMES. EITILAORDINAZT APPLICATION.—Mr. Martin Thomas, the solicitor, and Mr. George Jaques, the secretary of the Commercial Ges Company, came before Mr. Yardley, for the purpose of exhibiting 18 informations against Moss Phil lips, the landlord of the King's Arms, concert-room, tavern, and assembly house, in the Mln-endload, for fraudulently supplying Mina( with gas from the main pipes of the com pany, for • considerable time. The party charged, who is the proprietor of one of the largest establishments in the Tower Hamlets, has rendered himself liable to penalties amounting to 6001.

The March general adjourned session of the peace for the county of Middlesex, commenced yesterday morning at the Sessions House, Clerkenwell.

The learned judge, in charging the grand jury, said the eases for trial at the present session, ware about the average number, and none of them wen oat of the ordinary cha racter. But as the system of treating juvenile offender', under summary jurisdiction—since the introduction of which system the number of children convicted of felony had in creased to an enormous estent—was again under considera tion in the House of Commons, he might say, that the observations be had made in • charge which hi had the h non' to deliver to a grand jury at this court last year, in which he showed the injurious working of the spine, had been mon than verified by subsequently ascertained results.
