It never Oe earn,, t) me to g t out and fifeere what had been done, sod min essUlance I saw nothing but the alternative of • rittera•bili movement and coacealment of the body on the cat hint, and of ahoy and destractios of the ~.her. The firs• due I did, as non es I could do anything, wet to drew tie hrdy sate the private room, adjoining, where 1 took off t: e cr.thes, and began patting them into the fire, which was Eurnite in tte u;yerlaboratogy.

I had a egOoleM leAls object in ordering the box, and making the geeppies.

I: was this previously intended on of thus that suggested and mixed itself up with the idea of the other arplisedes.

Tee tea pat tar the tea chest was taken from a hanel el it that had bass lathe laboratory for use time. The beg al tan brought in ea Monday was not and, for intend-el to ho used ; it belonged to a quantity obtained by me a long time ago, for experiment* in tanning, sad was seat in by the family to get it cut of the way.

The jesitee had furnished me with a key to the dissecting roes, be the admi lion of medical friends visiting the college, but I bed never end it. The nitric aeid on the stairs was not used to remove spots of blood, but was dropped by accident. Whoa the officers called for sae on Friday the 30th, I was is doubt whether I was under arrest. tie whether a moss strict marcl of ley rooms waste be had ; the latter hyp Alias be ing hardly leas appalling than the former. When I found that we meet over Craglee-bridge, I thought the arrest most probable. When I found that the carriage was stopping at the gaol, I was sure of my fete. lianas seise the carriage, I took • dose of sinehaute from my packet and swallowed t. I had prepared it is the shape of a pill before I left my labo ratory en the 23rd. I thought I could not bear to survive detection. I thought it was a large dose. The state of my nervous system, probably, defeated its action partially. The effects of Ms poises were terrible beyond description. It was in operation at Ike College, and before I went there, but moat severely afterwards. I wrote bat one of the anony ms letters produced at the trial—the one mailed at Est Cambridge. The little bundle referred to in the letter de tained by the gaoler, contained only a bottle of citric acid. for domestic use. I had seen it stated in a newspaper that I had purchased a quantity of oxalic Aid, which it was pre. seined was to ha need in removing blood stains. I wish the parcel to be /opt untouched, that it may be shown, if tore should be occasion, what it really was that I had par 'Mad. I have draws up, in separate papers, an explanation of the net intended to make of the blood sent for on Thurs day, the fled, sad of the conversation with Littlefield about the dissecting vault. I think that Pettee, in kis testimony at the trial, put too strongly my words about having settled with Dr. Parks's. Whatever I did say of the kind was in the hope I en tertained that I should be able to pacify Dr. Parkonn, and make some arraneemeat with him, and was said in order to quiet Patter who was becoming restive ander • the solid tations of Dr . Parkman. After Dr. Webster had stated moat of the fads recorded above, on the 23rd May this question, with all the earnest ness, solemnity, sad authority of tone that Dr. Putman was maser of was addressed him : " Dr.Webster ' in all probability your days are numbered; , you C .11220 t, 701Idare not 'peak falsely to me nos ; you must not die with a lie in your mouth; so, prove to yourself that your repentance for the sins of year past life is sincere. Tell me the truth tuts—a 0:05 ince tote kept semi dar ing your lifetime, and as much longer u my mad for the happiness of your family shall seem tome tor. quire, and the laciest of truth and justice to permit. Search to the bottom of your heart for the history of your motives, and tell me before Gad, did it sever occur to you, before the decease of Dr. Parkman, that his death, if you could bring it to per, would be of grist adnatage to you, or at least that permed b jury to him might possibly be the retch of your expected coefereses with Lim ? As ady log num. I charge you to answer me truly and exactly, or else be silent—had Tea eat alb a thought ?" " No, never !" said be, with energy and feeling ; " as I live, and as God is my . witnese—never 1 I was se men capable of such • thought than eine of sy innocent children. I never had the remotest idea of injuring Dr. Parkmen wail the moment the blow was struck. Dr. Perlman was ex treacly severe and sharp—the most provokiag of men—and lam irritab`e and pusionate. A quick-handed and brief violence of temper has been a buena, sin of my life. I was an only child—mash indulged—mad I bays never acquired the control over my passions that I ought to have acquired early, and the coesequence is all this." But yon notified Dr. Pukes. to meet you at a certain hour, and told him you would pay him, when you knew yea had not the mow 1" " No," he replied. " I did not tell his I 'could pay his, and there is so *rides.. that I told him so. Except my own words spoken after kis disappearance, and aft! r I had deter' mined to take the ground oat I had paid him, theta weeds were of the miserable tissue of falsehoods to which I was comenitud from the moment I had began to C9llOllll the homicide. I bad a thought of injuring Parkman." Thi. Wit accompanied by the statement in which Prof, seer We our attempts to explains, to his seeing Littlefield, sera. ing for blood, and of inquiring about gases from the Tall. After reading the statement, Dr. Putman proceeded to argue as to its trathfulnem, saying that it was made when the writ of error was still peedieg. Also„ that Professor Webster's estate was worth several thousand dollars, and that he was not in such a strait as to commit such a crime deliberately. The previous petition from Professor Webster, protecting his innocence sod praying for obeoltre pardon, he aid, was got up by his family, who were unwavering in their belief in his innocence, until his coaferi n was communicated to them about a week since. He concluded in assisting his belief that the confession was true.

The long deliberations Se te the building to be erected for the exhibition of 1851 have been terminated by a decision in favour of Mr. Paxton's design end estimate. We have before described this gentleman's plan, but as the present decision In his favour will attract general attention to the exact character of his propositions, we may repeat that Mr. Paxton outside a building chiefly of glass—in feet, a huge Lai elegant glum house. The great feature in its erec tion is, that us stone, brick, or mortar will be neessary. All the raufing sad ITel/tit suites will be made by machinery, fitted together and glazed with rapidity, moat of them being finished previous to bet, g taken to the place, so that little Wee will be required on the spot than to fit the finished ma Wide together. Tie whole of the structure will be sup puma es east-iron columns, as. the extensive roof will be calcined without the necessity for interior walls for this purpose. If removed after the exhibition, the materials emy be sold far more advantageously then a structure filled be with bricks and mortar, and some of the materials would Bing fa full half the o:igier.l outlay. C .mplete ventilation ices been provided, by filling in every third upright eompert. meet with luff.r-bcarding, which would be made to open tad shut by machinery; the whole of the basement will be Ana in after the same manner. The current of air may be meddled by the use of coarse open canvas, which, by being kept wet in hot weather, will render the interior of the building much cooler than the external atmosphere. Is order to subdue the intense Ight in a building covered with glee•, it i► proposed to cover all the south side of the up right parts, together with the whole of the roofs outside, with calico or canvas, tacked on the ridge rafters of the latter. This will allow a current of sir to pass in the valleys under the calico, which will, If required, with the ventilators, keep the air of the house **vier than the external atmosphere. To give the roof a light and graceful appearance, it is to be on the ridge and (Snow principle, and gland with sheet glass. The ridge and valley rafters will be continued in uninterrupted lines the whole length of the structure, and he supported by Wt-iron beams. These beams will have a hollow gutter formed in them to receive the rain wa•er from the wooden valley rafters, which will be thence conveyed through the hollow columns to the drains. These drains will be formed of ample dissensions under the whole of the pathways throughout. The floors of the path. ways to be laid with treUieboards, three eighths of an inch apart, on sleeper joists. This kind of flooring is both gesso mieal and can always be kept clean, dry, and pleasant to walk upon. The gallery floors are to be close boarded. No timber trees need be cut down, es the glassmay fit up odes bole oath, trees, leaving the lower branches under the glass during the exhibition; but Mr. Paxton does not recommend this course, as, for the sum of 2501., he would engage to remove and re- Oboe every living tree on the ground, except the large old elms opposite to Prinee'agate. Only a few years ago the evertios el such a building as the one contemplated would have involved a fearful amount of expenr ; but the rapid advance made in this country during the last 40 years, both is the scientific construction of such buildings and the cheap manafecture of glass, iron, do , together with the imagine facilities in the preparation of sash-bars and other wood work, render an erection of this description, in point of ex pense, quite on a level with those constructed of more sub Sandal materials. THE INV:ISMAX EXHIBITION OF 1851.—A pablic meeting of the working-men of Leeds was bold at the Court-house in that town on Monday evening last, to adopt measures forpromothm the success of the great exhibition of next year. The attendance was but meagre, but great in terest was displayed in the success of the intended exhibition by theme present. Resolutions were unsnimossly adopted approving of the exhibition, as one of a series of experi ments capable of giving a powerful stimulus to manufac turing enterprise. THE LATE SIR ROBERT PEEL—A public meeting was bold oa Monday evening in the Town-hall, Preston, to take into oossideranon the propriety of erecting a statue or other suitable monument to the memory of Sir Robert Peel. The Rev. H. D. &linden moved the first resolution : That this meeting, deeply lamenting the great loss the nation has sustained by the death of Sr Robert Nei, now determine to erect in this town a statue or some ether testi monial commemorative of his very eminent services." Mr. Couseillor Catterall seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. Ac.immittee was then formed to carry out the oliect in view, and a subscription was entered into, which produced about 2001., In the room. The town will be divided into distriets, and every house visited ; and It Is eal lstpelsd *mead games will be realised. T.

CKAPPLI in the chair. Sir J. ROhIILLY addressed toe electors. After referring to the different circumstances in which he then came to ask them to return him es their representative, the hon. gentleman went on to state at considerable length the grounds on which he had supported the foreign, the commer clod, and the domestic policy of the government. The foreign policy had been weed upon principtee which had long been recognised se those which ought to guide the intercourse of a great nation with other powers— interfering not in a violent and offensive manlier. In respect to the commercial policy, when ha last presented himself before that constituency a stuing feeling wag evinced in respect to the navigation laws, which many persona were diepost d to regard as a bulwark of the country, the removal of which would be most disastrous; but he would venture to ask now, had any of the evil predicted followed the removal dame laws ? On the enstrary, was It not the fact that shipbuilding was never more actively carried on in the vari ous ports of the country than now ? He regretted that any parties should suffer in the carrying out of free trade ; but it was better that the landlords should suffer than that the food of the people should be under the restriction of taxation. After some questions by Mr. Katy and Mr. WILLIAMS as to certain proposals for economising the *apeman of govern meat, in answering which Sir JOHN ROMILLY said be did not think the army, navy, or ordnance establishments of the country could be further reduced with safety in the present jealous feeling of foreign powers, A resolution was proposed by Dr. SMAITORD, and seconded by Mr. H. B. Sutra, expressing approval of the statement of Sir John Romilly, and pledging the meeting to support him at the election, and cuugratalating him on his appointment to the odic* ofAttorney-Gentral. - - -- . The resolution was at one. adopted, and the meeting gave three cheers fur Sir J. Manny and separated. CHESTER ELECTION. The elevation of Sir John Jervis to the bench having caused a vacancy in the representation of Chester, the eitiztns have been on the gui rive re specting candidates presenting themselves for their suf frages. Placards of every conceivable size, colour, and character, already adorn the walls of the old city, and on Monday addruses were issued by Mr. Jervis, the son of the late member, by the Hon. \V. 0. Stanley, son of Lord Stanley, of Alderley, in this county, on the liberal interest, and by Mr. C. B. Egerton on the tory iaterest. On Saturday evening a public meeting took place at the Albion Assembly Room, for the purpose of taking into consideration the ex pected vacancy in the representation. Mr. Jervis attended the meeting, end entered into an elaborate explanation of his political views. It wu announced that Mr. Stanley intended to come forward, upon which Mr. Jervis said that rather than divide the liberal cause he would retire. This rather divided the meeting, but on a resolution being put affirming Mr. Jerrie to be " a fit and proper perms to represent the city of Center in parliemeet, and an amendment in favour of Mr. Stanley having been lost on a show of hands, Mr. Jervis expressed himself to the effect that, taking the hieing of the electors to be in hie favour, he should proceed on Monday with hie canvass. The Hon. W. 0. STANLEY addressed a numerous body of the electors at the Royal Hotel on Mouthy evening. In the course of his address Mr. Stanley explained that he ap peared before them because he had been requested to offer himself as a nadidate on the liberal interest by an influential portion of that interest who declined having anything what ever todo with the son of the late Attorney-Generak He (Mr. Stanley) was determined, however, not to remain in the field with • second liberal candidate, er Mr. Beaton (the eonservative) would in all probability be returned. Ile suggested that some steps should be taken for **dunning whether bimetal or Mr. Jervis was the most acceptable to the constituency, pledging himself to retire if he had not a de cided majotit y in his favour, and expressing a hope that Mr. Jervis would do the same if he was not the most acceptable candidate. After briefly stating his political principles, he concluded by intimating his determination not to peril the liberal eau, by announcing himself as • candidate. The meeting was then addressed by Mr. W. Jackson, M.l'., Mr. Wardell, banker, and Mr. Boron, all of whom vehemently maintained that Mr. Stanley wee the abler and the better man, that he had the confidence of the gnat body of the liberal electors, and that Mr. Jervis was bound to retire. The question was then put to the meeting whether Mr. Stanley or Mr. Jervis should be their esedidate, and the former was adopted by an overwhelming majority. The meeting was thee dissolved, but the runts seems to have so far satisfied Mr. Jervis and his friends that he must sues. sully withdraw, that at noon yesterday Mr. Jervis's formal Illaiduation appeared. The cuate4 now lies between Mr. Stanley and Mr. Burton. Both parties are exortingthem ulna to the utmost, sad a spirited susse s most, is anti cipated. Mr. Banta% wee to address • meeting of the *looters last evening, MR. BARBER'S CASE. TO TWO IMITOIk OF TUB DAILY MIL 8111,—The interest which you bare taken in My ease, and the ability with which you have advocated my MINN d es me to hope you will oblige me by the :auction of this The judgment el the Court of Queen's Bench, delivered an Saturday wee, I doubt not, the result of meoh cond. , dendmi, earl I belle* that their lordships had no ' ether &mire than to do perdue judge betwesa me and my eggsaests.

IMO tie Cleft remarked that the dividends dad I est bees smoked hr 23 reveries to the date of the will, and that this was a sksamsteace so striking that it ought to have attracted my attention, and that I oaght to have made in quiries apse it • but this was a het of which I was totally tamest, and without the means of knowledge. The Bank, waverer, did know, and they nude no inquiry whatever. The fletitions will was dated 14th Deeembee,lB22, and the deceased was represented as bevies died in the sew useatb. All the dividends that were sinned by the meserer were hos the date of the will, and I think the most gateau dietary thing Is, that when the application for the 12 years' dividends was made, and the beck; upon referring to their hooks, saw they lied not been received Saes 1806, sad I that, cocuqueutly, 86 years' dividends were in fact due, they should have paid the 12 years' dividends only, and I lime Detained the previous 23 years' without the slightest or observation.

Thejudges,llll it appears to me, have laid greeter stress upon theme circumstance of my supposed knowledge of the actual time when the dividends ceased to be received than any other point in the whole cue, for Mr. J'astice Fat hom' read that part of the judgment with marked emphuis, lad it was dwelt upon even to repetition ; and I firmly Wins this miitake materially influenced the decision.

Upon the effect of the pardon the(court observed : "A paten so pardoned is released from all coasequences of the amebas. The applicint must therefore be treated es if he bad net bees convicted, otherwise the court would set con trary to the authorities, and would questioa the propriety of the 'mese of the crown's prerogative." Bat I respectfully ask, is set the court acting in violation of the preciple the? thsclves have thus recognised ? Doss not this decl aim*. question, and to a certain extort neutralise, the' menthe of the crown's prerogative ? Are they not con tinuing to inflict upon sae the consequences of the cowrie tie.? What else has oxsaioned the painful struggle of the het 18 months? What else has impeded the enjoymeet of ay professional rights ? But for that conviction I ahculd have renewed my certificate, in November, 1843, as a natter of coarse ; and, indeed, if my pardon had been patted la that year, I should have had a right to my certificate, as in former years, without the necessity of any application to theeseet whatever. The court admits there is no reason to suppose that I de deed scything from these transactions beyond my proper profewnonal fees, yet eutertains the idea that I may nave knowinglyjeopardistd all that was dear to me on earth. The jury by which I was convicted having noticed the argument upon the rule in Hilary term lut, had al aonferenoes on my case, which resulted in a declaration on the part of eight out of the ten who were alive and acces sible, that they considered my conviction attributable to my having been denied a separate trial, and that they would have undoubtedly acquitted me upon the facts which have dale come to light. This declaration not having been re ssimit until after the arguments had been commenced, my eeuassl considered it could not be added to the evidence laid before their lordehips. The main cause of the decision of Saturday was the unfair 'Guru punued by my powerful, and I mut add, unscrupu loes opponents. Pretending to desire only that the real facts should be before the court, they have done everything in their power to exclude important esidence, and even to mislead the court by direct misstatements. At one of the earliest meetings before the Muter they expressly disavowed the imputation of guilt, proposing to iequire into my supposed culpability for negligence. To which the Muter replied, " No, it cannot be expected that I should be called upon to try a qetstien of felony. In the whole coarse of the inquiry before him, extending over several months, the above disclaimer was never witudrewn. My answer was therefore prepared, to explain the points of supposed negligence only, yet, notwithstanding this, when the case came on for argument, they suddenly turn rcund and call upon me to justify the decision of the government in my fivnur, although they did not pretend that they bud succeeded in bringing forward one tittle of new evidence to disparage such decision. Soon after the inquiry commenced, Mr. Maugham applied to see the originals of the document. which had been laid before Sir George Grey, and which are published in my pamphlet. These were accordingly produced to him, when, !savior compared them with minute and careful attention, he raid be was satisfied of their authenticity, and that lie was aretutinted with the signatures of many ref them. At the next meeting before toe Master, he handed him one of my pamphlets, marking the copies which he had examined, and striking out the merely narrative porticos, which latter, the Master, he said, could not receive as evidence, but it was distinody un derstood that the documents themselves, of the genuineness of which he had satisfied himself, were edmitted, and it was quite clear that this was the understanding of the Master, tor he has more than otter referred to them in his report. In the face of this my oppocents, when the cue came on tor ar gument, took a technical objection (although it had beea distinctly agreed that no technical objection should be taken on either side) to the re teiog of the above mentioned doi u men•s, and L was thereby shut out from a material branch of evidence, not merely as to my conduct in cir cumstances of great trial, but as to the important facts of she case. To enable the society to get up their charges against me with every possible effect, they applied to the Treasury, for all the papers connectel with the orminsl proiseutior, , which application 1 did not optede. Ine papers were accordingly ' handed to the Master by a clerk from Mr. Fres; tiehie dike, when Mr. Maugham propeeed that hr the eon. virulence of the society they should he intrusted to him sad kept at the hall, where he said Mr. Stephen son, or myself, could at all times have mese* them. To this arrangement Mr. Stephenson assented. At the end of about a montht,Mr. **ohm having intimated that the *sage of the society was completed, Mr. Stephenson and I applied to inspect the documents, to enable me to prepare my answer, when to our astonishment Mr. Maugham said he was instructed to refuse any inspection. The indignation of Mr. Stephenson may be imagined, and he did not hesitate to point out to Mr. *eighteen, both perionally and by I letter, end to protest against, the clear breach of faith of which the society had been guilty, but they persisted in lchatting me out from this inspection, and I was compelled to I comp'ete my answer from the v ry elsnder materials in my possession, newly all my books and papers being scattered and lost, a very small portion of them only having been found in a hatter's shop in New Bond-street, which had been purchased with offies furniture at an auction sale after my trial. Toe society picked and culled from a volu minous statement of the whole of the forgery cases which doubtless had been in great put complied from the hooks and supers taken from me by the prosecutint, and which I have seen sines they left my office; and they well knew that the only means by which I could fully answer such queries, would be supplied by the papers to which they denied me access. My opponents not only sought by every artifice which their counsel could devise to shut out all the material evidence in my favour, but they went the length of stating to the court teat which cannot otherwise be desig nated than as a deliberate falsehood, as will be clearly seen by the following correspondence : "1, Victoria-street, Holtormbridge, Much 8, 1850.- Bir,—l take the liberty of recalling your attention to the fact that 1 had the honour to receive a letter dated the 10th of November, 1348, written by Mr. G. Cornewall Lewis, under your authority and direction, enclosing her Moat Gra cious Majesty's free pardon for Mr. William Henry Boroer, upon a full and anxious consideration of all the documents in your possession. In the Matey term following (1849) an application was made on behalf of Mr. Barber to the Court of Queen's Bench (or the usual role to enable him to obtain his certificate, so es to resume the practice of his profession of an attorney, which application was opposed by the Incor porated Law Society, who hate endeavoured to impugn the decision of her Majesty's government. I have grcat satisfaction, however, in stating, that after a most tedious, and to Mr. Barber harassing, investigation, already occupying upwards of thirteen month., not a tittle of evidence has been produced which tends to weaken his case. In the course of the rant argument before the court it was stated by Sir Frederick Timmer that ' inquiry has been anxiously made ea to what had become of the supposed oonteraions of Joshua Fletcher and William Sunders, made in the year 1844 ; what was done with them, how they were procured, and how they were used ; and no satisfactory an. ewer has been given.' This statement I heard with inex preseible surmise, because, so long ago se the 19th February, 1849, I produced to Mr. Maogbam, the secretary of the incorporated Law S niety, for his examination, the originals of the various documents set out in Mr. Barba's pamphlet, exempting those which had been forwarded to her Majesty's government; and with regent to the original conte+sions of Fletcher and Saunders, I referred Mr. Maui/hem to the Home office, where I acquainted him they had been deposited immediately after they bad been made, and not the slightest • Iditional ineptiry has ever been made of Mr. Barber ar myself respecting them. As the solicitor to the Treasury, doubtless under the authority of her Mojeatj's government, has afforded the Incorporated Liw Society all possible feel lithe for obtaining the fullest informed= upon Mr. Bar ber', cue by an iospectista of the various books sad papas eounec•ed ate* the terigiaal proseiratio 1, I cannot doubt that if appl on had beta made to you on Whetter the Lamm pore w Swim (ter that purpo 4, the °tidier'. °cohe sions ( very existence of which la now far the Ant date disputed), would have been also produced for their semi- AWOL Is the inquiry before the Maser, so doubt the lifetimes or gesains character of thee, essfenlona was ever far one moment expressed and I esnlaml beard them alluded te as .• supposed " eon terises, with semething more than astonishment.

I leave your readers to say whether ouch *nand indicates a desire to promote the honour cf the professes or a deter mination to crush a partkulaz member of it. Look, sir, at the position of my case. I was convicted upon circumstances of unexplained suspicion, because I was denied the means of explaining them, by a separate trial. I have suffered four years of misery, enceeding, I verily believe, that which has ever fallen to the lot of even the guiltiest man living, much more of any innocent one. All the confederates in the frauds have separately and at different times declared my inherence. lavestigniens were instituted at Norfolk Island, at Hobart Town, at Sydney, atMadras, sad at Paris, by the meet eminent men, legal and otherwise, and all of which resulied IEI ray complete vindication. Her Majesty's governmeat, af.er two successive and moat patient investigations, issued a free pardon, accompanied by an acknowledgment of my perfect innocence, and all this has been cohfirmed by the declaration of the jury who convicted me, and yet I am denied the poor privilege of once more resuming my profession, having been arript of a valuable practise and everything that could render VG ea enjoyment. The dimities of the court has bitterly aggravated my injuries, and hes sun • weight of suffering and difficulty upon me which nothing bat the consciousness of • righteous cease sad a perfect conflileam in its ultimate swims could 'noblesse to sustain.

THE MANUFACTURING DISTRICTS. MANCHESTER, JaLT 16. We had a meeting of the local committee for pro moting the Exhibition of Industry in 1851, yesterd c even ing, at the Town Hall, which was attended by Cslonel Loyd, one of the special commissioners, who communicated some interesting informed= respecting the most recent ' arrangements of the Royal Commission. Restated that the building for the intended exhibition would contain 800,000 square feet, of which it was intended to devn•o one-half tor the contributions of the United Kingdom, 100,000 for the exhibitions of France, and bO.OOO for those of the United States. Calculations were making as to the space to t.e ne voted to different towns, the went of assurances oa :nit point having hitherto operated as a discouragement to exhibitors, who naturally were unwiUing to put themselves to trouble and expense so long as there is any uncertainty on this point. It was stated that one manufacturer here was preparing models of a complete sat of mschines used in the manufacture of cotton, of the full size, which would require a imams equal to the floor of a large manufactory.

GLovert.—With deep regret we announce the death of Mrs. Glover. The distressing event took place at an early hear yesterday morning, and wee. happily, unaccompanied by any perceptible evidence ot physical suffering. There is something inexpressibly shock mg in the tact that on Friday night Mrs. Glover was in person the object of a great popular demonstration in her honour, and that on the morning of the following Tuesday she ceased to be among us. The first and most natural im pression on the pu'•lic mind will doubtless be that the ex:dement inseparable from her last appearance on the stage must have accelerated the deplorable event; and when it is known that, for the fortnight antecedent to Friday, Mrs. Glover had been confined to her bed, the impression wenld not seem ill-founded. Her medical advisees, however. state their deliberate opinion, that the nervous ',iris taoi.st) arising trom 'Um would have rendered it more dangerous to check the impatience she felt to kat", faith with the nubilc than to yield, however reluctactiF. to her strong ansi- ty. Mrs. Clever hid announced that see would appear, and, with thorough English courage, the del ' appear. In the lamentable result we find ground for (Leo regret. This is not the moment for a eulogy of Mrs Glover's private character, or a critical examination of her prof. mime! merits. Tu both ample justice will be done. Now, having briefly announced the deplorable event of her so 'den ei•so lutiort, our duty is limited to a repetition of our own sincere sorrow—and we are sure we only echo the general voice—at the unlooked-for disruption of a tie that has endured with undiminished etrenath during more than halt a century. RAILWAY RIOT.—For soma time past diecues,:och have been going on between the Sbtewsbory and Birming ham Company and the London and North Westem C. in party, under the name of the Stour Valley Railway, which they have leased, as to the right of the Sbrewshuty and Birmingham Company to form a connection at the joint onion at Wolverhampton with the Birmingham CADS'. It appears that such a connection is necessary for the cuveni care of the public and for the due conduct of the business of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Compan; , as they have at present no access to Birmingham by railway. The forma tion of this canal appears to have excited the appreltervions ot the London and North Western Company, who have thrown every obstacle in their power in the way. Atter some preliminary skirmishing it became obvious on Pfladi last toot a serious collision of the rival companies was likely to ensue. The Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company having been obstructed on that day in forming a tem;orary connexion with the canal within the station limits, deter mined to persist on the following morning in completaint toe necessary work and carrying on their business. 'lns Lon ion and North Western men mustered in greet force, there hey. log been collected six or seven hundred of the " navvies" employed in the construction of the Stour Valley line. About twelve o'clock, a train containing thirty or forty wag gons ot the Surewsiory and Birmingham Company, loaoed with materials,whichwete intended to be conveyed by the canal wets brought (town along the Shrewsbury and Bvtuingtam line, accompanied by a body of workmen, for the purpose if transhipping into the canal boats. They commenced to lay down planking for that purpose, but it was immediately torn up by the London and North Western men, and scattered about in a reckless manner, upsetting a number of people and breaking one man's leg. At this stage of the proceed ings the Mayor of Wolverhampton, accompanied by the constabulary and military, slide their appearance. The Riot Act was read, and the mob ordered to disperse. 'rns mayor stated aloud that finding the Shrewsbury and Lir osiogham Company in possession of the station. and they being the only company now using it for the purposes of traffic, that the police and military would protect them while conducting their businces,and that he would cause every person to be apprehended who attempted to obstruct them. The planking was immediately laid down, under protection of the military, mid the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Com pany immediately proceeded to tranship the matetials from the railway *sums into the canal boats, without further interruption. At this period, however, the Linden and North Western were ordered to take their places in a set of contractors waggons, which was brought by an engine ts the spot, as it was believed, for the purpose of removing them altogether; instead of which, however, the waggons were first pushed for several hundred yards in the direction of Shrewsbury, when the men all jumped out of the waggons, and the waggons were then upset, turned upside down, and mattered over both the up and down line of the Shrews bury and Birmingham Railway, thus completely obstructing the main line of that company, there being ore paseenger train about to start at th • time, and another train sue. '11:o London and North Women mon were immediately charged by the polio* with drawn swords, and the min Cory alvenced with fixed bayonets. The rioters were at nest vi al. tit slid stubborn, and the police, unformnately, hod to use their swords. Several wounds were indicted , and one, we believe, M P very serious. They were at last driven from the groun.l, and, under the promotion el the authurittee, the waggons upset upon the line were cleared elf, and the Shrewsbury and Birmingham trains were enabled to pass a it boo t further obstruction. A number of the m ost leading at.d eicfive rioters were apprehended, and are immediately t e he brought before the magietrates. Tbisc tee seems to be an egeravated repetition at the other end of the Shrewelnire line of the Chester station disturbance, upon which the Lord Chancellor unrested so decided an opinion.
