CURIOUS AOCIDZNT ON THE SCOTTIOT Cl/111UL BAILWAT.—On the evening of Wednesday, about half•pa■t eight o'clock, after the goods train from Perth had passed the Bridge of Ansa, and when at the bridge which crosses the Allan. the driver, looking back, observed that several trucks in his train were mining. He " slowed " his engine, there being an iodine at the place, and immediately afterwards several of the fugitive trucks came rushing down, running into the portion of the tram attached to the engine. These were followed by another portion of the tracks, which also ran into the train, the couplings having previously broken. The result wee that eight trucks and two vans were thrown off the rails and precipitated into the river Allan. The bridge is broken, the rails torn up, and the traffic on the line wee impended es Thureliy. Fortunately, no person was injured. Cl Wets PHECOIia.NO/C—The singular phenn mix se of a mirage was witnessed on Sunday evening week iu this neighbourhood. A gentleman was returning from Csrodunagh, with his family, and the party had just dis mounted off the car, to walk the hill near Quigley's Points when their attention was attracted by a wonderful appear ance in the heavens. Away to the north they saw several ships in the air s sailing acmes the face of the sky from east to west. The line of vessels seemed to ho fully five miles in length, and they appeared to be sailiog d own • ri ver , whose high hanks could be made out behind the ships, Some of the vessels teemed to be moored close to • fortress, built on • rock. To all the party we the phenomenon distinctly visible. So clear was the air, and so close did the ships appear to their eyes, that the sailors pulling at the ropes were made out with ease, even by the children who saw the strange spectacle. The phenome non Wit nearly half an hour before it disappeared. Although the appearance of such things in the heavens may he very startling, the phenomena are not unknown about this part of the Irish oast. The "mirage," as it is termed, often displays itself in fantastic shapes on the shores of the northern counties. It moat frequently is to he seen ea the enact of Antrim, especially in the vicinity of the Causeway. About twelve years ago a very curious instance of mirage was seen ia Lough Foyle.

A number of young men who are employed at the General Post-office as auxiliaries In carrying out the business of the office, yesterday waited upon Sir it. W. Carden, at the Mansion-bowie, in order tombs a deto ured of what they alleged to be a great grievance to whieh they bed been subjected by the authceitice of the General P 0514111103. _ One of the party, who spoke for the rest, said that they bad all vaginally, been employed as auxiliary letter carriers in different perm of the country, for which they were paid ten shilliaas per week, but had the privilege of employing their leisure time at their respective trades. About three month, back they had been induced to come to London to be employed is auxiliaries at the General Post office, upon the exprem understanding that they were to be paid sixteen shillings per week, and that as vacancies occurred they should be placed upon the regular staff of the establishment. For these was they bad to be at the Post-office every morning at five o 'clock, and were engaged for four hours i and again in the evening for a longer period, and they received 6s. per week for the morning duty, sod 10a. for the evening. Yes terday morning, without any previous notice, they were told that they would not be paid les. a week any longer, but that next week they would not be required to perform the morn ing duty, and would only be paid 10s. a week. most of them were young married men, and it was impossible for thew to subsist upon 10s. a week, and they therefore thought they were justified in making the matter public, or that the worthy alderman might suggest some step that would induce the Nato - Aloe authorities to rescind the resolution they had come to, to reduce the men's wenn to so large an extent One of the party here stated that he was doing very well in the country district, and he had been induced to come to London upon the express understanding that he was to be paid leis. a week until he was appointed upon the regular staff of the Post-offioe. He had a sick wife and child, and he put it to any one how it was possible for him to sup port them and himself upon 10e. a week. If the regulation was carried out, there was no prospect before him but starvation and a prison. Sir R. Carden asked if he was to understand that there was an express understanding with them when they left the country district, in which they were employed, that they were to receive 16e. per week until they were permanently ap te n spoliesman said that this was the express understand ing, but it wee only verbal, and there was no written agree. meet. In spite of this, however, they were told that morn ing that in future they would only be paid 10s. per week. Sir R. Carden inquired whether they did not remon strate with the Post-office authoritiesiipon their breach of the agremaat The roman said they did, and the' only answer they was that if they did not like to accept the reduced , vases, were at liberty to leave the service. It was a very great Vi upon men in their position to be treated I. this manner, and it was all very well to say that they might go back to the country, but when they came to Lon don they lost all their employment there, end it was of no use returning. Sir R. Carden observed that, strictly !peaking, he had no right to eater into such en inquiry . as this, but the question was certainly one of considerable importance, not only to the applicants, but also Loan important brunch of the public service, and be therefore did not feel himself called upon to prevent them from making the statement they had .lone. According to their statement there bad been a serious breech of contract on the part of the authorities of the Past-office, and he thought it only fair that a communication should be made to them upon the subject, and that they should have an an. opportunity of making any answer to it that they thought The applicants said they were very anxious to make the statement they had done in this court, in order that the public might know how they were treated. The matter was then directed to be postponed for a short time, and during the interval a oommuuicatiou was made to the Post-office upon the subject, sad three gentlemen con nected with sonic of the principal departments, whose names slid not transpire, subsequently attended for the per pose of giving mere expLination- Sir It. Cardm, addressing them, said that although the question was one with which, strictly, he bad nothing to do, and, under ordinary circumstances, the application was one which he would have no power to entertain, still when a number of respectable young men came before him, and stated the particulars of what undoubtedly affewed to be a peat grievance, which they sustained at the hands of ale of the public establishments, be felt that he Gadd not refuse to listen to them, and he should be glad to hear any thin the officials of the Post-offloe were prepared to ve to the complaint that bad been made. That complaint un derstood to be that these young men had been brought to Lambe on the express understandiog that they were to se criers lea pee week until they were permanently appointed, and that now they were suddenly told that they would only be paid 10s. per week, which was a sum totally inadequate to suppqgt them. On elf the gentlemen who attended from the Post-office handed to Sir R. Carden the regulations under which the auxiliaries, as they were termed, were employed by the Postudice. One of them was that the party should be able to reed, be five feet six inches high, and should also he able to oast up figures, and the salary was expressly stated to be 10a. per leech. The men all declared that they never saw this regulation, and it had been issued since they were appointed. The gentleman said he was not aware that any promise had ever been made to these men that they were to have 16s. • week. Thee might have been paid that amount, but it was fur edditioual servites that were now di continued. Sir R. Cardau—Then it is true, as they say, that they have hitherto been in the reeript of I4M. per week, and it is now propo.el soddenly to reduoe that amount to 10s. The gentleman said he did not dispute the fact. One of the applicants here exclaimed that he had been brought from the country where he was earning a respect. able livelihood, upon the positive understanding that he was to be paid sixteen shillings • week wages. This was little enough to support him and his family, and when he complained of the proposed reduction all the answer he got was that if hedid not like it he might go. He could not help saying that he considered it was ffirgraoeful conduct on the part of • government office to treat men in this manner, even if he were discharged for raying so. (Here there was a burst of applause from the auditory.) The gentleman who represented the Poet-office here stated, in answer to a question put to him by Sir R. Carden, that there were at the present time no less than 300 appli• cations for the office of auxiliary. One of the complaining parties said the reason for this was that they did not know how they would be treated. They were led to believe that itwas • good appointment, and that they would be liberally dealt with. They did not expect to be called upon to wort themselves and their famihes upon ten shillings • w Sir R. Carden said it was manifestly impossible for a man to live in Loudon upon 10e. per week. The Post-office official said these men had not tried to do so. — Sir It:Carden said he thought that they had taken a better course in coming forward and stating that they could not accept the wages offered, before they got into debt and difficulty, which it wan clear they must do upon such an amount of wages. He then said that he was perfectly well aware that he bad no right to interfere with the regulations of the Poet-office, but it certainly appeared to him that these men were entitled to have their case token into consi deration by the Post-olllce authorities, and that the public had a right to know why their wages had been suddenly reduced to so peat an extent. The Poet-office officials promised that the matter should be laid before the Postmaster-General, and the parties then left the court, after thanking the worthy alderman for the attention he had paid to their complaint. MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE. An inquest has been held before E. Hooper, Esq., wormier, at Smethwick, on the body of a young girl, named Mary Bickford. The father 14 deceased kept a retail brewery, and the family consisted of himself, his wife, de osssed (who was nearly 13 pass of age), and the younger daughter.. Mr. Bickford, who handle his trade possesses some property, warn at the time ci the mad death of his daughter away tram home on • visit to some relatives. On the preceding Tuesday the mother of deceased bad woe lion to speak to her unfortunate daughter, whom she sus- ' pected to have been taking 11.1110 beer clandatinely. The girl either denied or rooks evasively as to the matter, and her mother intimated that she would chastise her if she could find the strap. But this passed off, and the girl was sent on an errand to get some spent hops for a new brewing of beer. She came back ensue essoftd and almost immediately afterwards was missed from the house. At this time it was pest seven o'clock, and as she did not return uneasiness wise felt lest some accident bad happened to her. Police-constable Hollis, who lives near the spot, was spoken to, and he exerted himself iii an indefatigable manner, searchiag the same night the corn fields and other spot. where it was probable the absent girl might have gone, and lying down dropped off to sleep. All this was unavailing, and in the course of the next day such information reached the of Beer as induced him to procure drags and *earth the Ohl Birmingham Canal. Here, just at the Lack of the Spondee's railway station, the deed body of the unfortunate deceased was found. It was covered with mud, but no marks of violence were discovered on any part of the body. It seems that the unfortunate girl was seen by • little boy to mu down the declivity which exists just at the railway bridge leading to the canal ; and a prang man, engaged in watching the eying of hie pigeons, maw something move in the water. He, however, did nut take further police, supposing, as that prat. to. is common, that some one had t hro wn • dog into the water at the spot. Of course when the discovery was made all human aid was useless. Deceived, who is said to have been an apt and industrious girl, was very good looking and tall for her age. Beyond the circumstance we ham noticed, nothing was elicited at the Moundding to throw any light teem the causecause of this sad a ffai r . The mend behaviour of the mother of the deceased is said to have been kind to her deceased daughter, and the mine remark applies to the father. The coroner, who hod taken peat pains to elicit ell peemble information from the millstones, in which example he was followed in a peat degree by the jury, sent the case very carefully to that body for their eon sideretion, explaining the muse which by law they might pursue in returning their decision upon this lament able rare. After sone tiwe aprut in deliberation, the jury returned an open verdict of " need drowned, but by what means deceased came into the water then wee so 'widow, efore the fury to show.' THE POLICE COURTS. C CILDHALL. George Clarke, foreman and manager to Yemen. Joseph, boot and shoe manufacturers, at Skinner-street, and William Par., a walehossernan in the same estab li thment, were brought up for further examination before Alderman7Cope land, relative to the charge of !robbing their roasters to a very considerable extent of goods, a great quantity of which a person named John South, a journeyman bootmaker, was charged with feloniously roceinug, knowing them to have been stolen. Mr. Lewis, jun., was engaged for Smith • Mr. Beard for the prisoner Pike ; and Mr. Buchanan for dlarke. It will be recollected that on the last examination it ap peared that property consisting of uppers and other material used in the manufacture of boots were found in the sion of Clarke and Pike to th e value of about 101., and the premises of Smith siini/argooda to the valueof nearly r, the whole of which was identified as the property of the prosecutors, which had been stolen from their premises. Since the prisoners had been under remand, Huggett and Jarvis, the detective officers engaged in the case, had succeeded in recovering a much larger amount of property, which bad been disposed of by Smith to various persons in the same business in town and country. Of these goods, some to th e value of 831. had been sold to Mr. King, of th e Gray's-inn-road, who had given every insistence to the officers as woo as they called upon him. Mr. Sleigh, the banister, said he was instructed to attend and watch the case on the part of Mr. King, who be was bound to say was a highly respectable tradesman. He bad carried on business in the same place for upwards of eleven years, and his father before Lim for a much longer period, and be was therefore anxious to impress upon the court and the public that in his dealings with the prisoner Smith he bad not even the meet distant idea that the goods had been stolen, and that having given a fair price for all be bought there was nu sacrifice upon the value, as is usual in the disposal of stolen property, calculated to arouse his . suirl s. ing, on being examined, confirmed the statement of Mr. Sleigh. Mr. Wontner said the police met with a very different reception at Pinner, in Middlesex , where they cellist upon a bootmaker named Glailman, who also filled the °Moe at Pinner of pariah beadle. That individual had thrown every obstacle in the way of the officers, who had reason to believe that Gladman had received an intimation that they were going to pay him a visit, and that a large amount of property been removed just before their arrival. James (Badman, the parish beadle of Pinner, was called, and said he was a boot and shoe maker, an d a dealer in =. He had known Smith about three or four months, bought goods of him on five or six different occa sions. On the first two the quantity he bought was rather considerable, but the latter transactions were much smaller. He dud purchased to the amount of U. 7s. ad. at one time, but did not enter these purchases in his books.j Alderman Copeland inquired if the witness meant to say that he was in business, buying and selling, and kept no books. (Madman maid they were principally ready money trans action; and as such he never entered them. He did nod enter goods be add if he received ready mossy. Alderman Copeland said he was quite sure that the gentlemen who appointed witness parish moldable would never continue him in his appointment if they knew that he conducted his business in inch an extraordinary =UMW as he appeared to have clone in this instance. Gladman—The first quantity consisted of 80 pairs of uppers, and the last, which he purchased on the 27th of August, was 36 pars of uppers, for which he paid 41. 4s. He did not render the officers any assistance. When they came he sat still awl told them they might search' the house, which they did, and took away 18 pairs of uppers. On the following day he gave them 13 pain which they had not seen. Two men, one of whom was in Smith's employ, were waiting with a cab at his house to see him on the day the officers came, but ho did not send any goods away by them. He told the otficei •he would assist them if they wanted him. He did not threaten the oilmen with an ac tion for searching his premises, but he did write to the pro secutor to say that he would hold him responsible for the goods taken away. Some further evidence having been given the prisoners were fully committed for trial. WORSH P.STREET. Mr. Knox, the sitting magistrate, celled the attention of the reporter to the following application for amistan.x• and advice : . . A few days sines ► delicate and very young woman handed • letter to the bench, in which she made • statement that induced the magistrate to order Edis, one of the warrant officers of this court, to make inquiries into the subject matter of it. _ _ Applicant stated that her name was Lucy Davis ; that four years ago she accompanied her parents and a brother to Toronto. in Canada, in the ship Montezoener ; that they lauded there on the let of June, and that the applicant married a person named Davis. whom she had known in Englaud—a boy and girl was the result of that union, , the relative ages of whom were now three years and fifteen months ; that suddenly informative was afforded of a relative named Christopher Jones having died here, leaving the applicant's family • sum of money, which cir cumstance, combined with the distressing fact of her father's death, and other matters, induced applicant to return, ac. nom vied by her husband, the children, her mother and brother ; that on arriving in England by the ship Loudon, they found that the relative had been dead two years, but that the representations made were totally false, he having died miserably poor. Applicant's husband then procured work as a painter, but not understanding the trade, lost his employment, and was seised with violent illness ; their little stock of clothes was then pledged to procure nourishment and pay for medicine • the infant be came afflicted with diseased gland s,' and its life despaired of, unless restored to its native country; to add to these accumulated troubles, applicant's mother and brother returned to Canada by the assistance of a lady closely connected in relationship with them, and that finally, as they, the applicaot, her husband and children, were now quite destitute and starving, the landlady of their lodging rn Henry - place , Heaton , who had been very kind to them, advised her to date the whole circumstances to the presiding magistrate of this court. Mr. Knox now mentioned that he hail received • comma niceties from the lady referred to by the applicant, and whose name it wia unnecessary to meatier, which did not I gainsay any of the statements made to him. Applicant said she bad written to the lady begging to be sent by her aid back to Canada, where she doubted not health would be restored and her husband would get work. In consequence of that letter a missionary named Smith had visited her, and that he, after some delay, had assured her that nothing could be done in the matter, the lady haring afforded them all the meaus of taking that journey formerly. Yr. Knox observed that he, of course, could not interfere in any matters of such a character, the lady had a perfect right to do as she pleased about it; he would give the appli cant a letter to the emigration commissioners, and she must acquaint him with the results ; in the meantime she should have a trifle in addition to its. he had on the former occe. sine ordered her, nod the warrant officer would accompany her to the workhouse, with • request that until the funds could be raised for defraying the return of the family to Toronto, the authorities would continue to afford • little 1 assistance. _ _ . Applicant remarked that she bad received from them on Saturday last worth of meat, the same worth of grocery, and three quartern loaves, but that she was infonned no further aid could be rendered, be she sent by whom she might. Mr. Knox asked the officer if he was satisfied that appli cant's story was correct, and was answered that the wretched home presented the appearance of destitution and illness. The magistrate again directed the young woman to accom pany the officer to the workhouse with a repetition of his request. Jaw. Harker, &HAM MOM". • bp y_ 15 Jew , of ago, was charged with effecting his mann, in Ys is* from Tothill fields Pri,on, and stealing a suit of clot hes, the property of the visiting justices of the gaol. Richard Stone, warden at Tothill-fields, saki the accused was sent to that prison on the litth of last April, to undergo • sentence of six months' confinement for stashing a sove reign. On the 15th of May witness was mowing the grass of the lawn in the prison, and prisoner and some other inmates of the same age were employed in sweeping the green up. Witness had put the key of a pie which led to the outer walk of the privon in his cost pocket, and while mowing had taken his cost off and Placed it oa a garden roller, and prisoner watch. mg his opportunity, while witness was engaged, stepped behind the roller, sod getting procession of the key entered the outer walk, and soiling the wall escaped, having on at the time the prison clothing. John Fauldham said, that although search bad been made for the prisoner he eluded thevigilance of the police until last night, when he was captured at Woolwich, and brought to London upon the present charge. Mr. Paynter asked when the visiting justices met ' The Warders said they would meet tomorrow. Mr. Paynter remanded the prisoner until the visiting justices should determine what had better be done, as it 6rdly seemed a case in which they might deem it neces sary to institute a new prosecution, but might consider the ends of justice served by the boy being again oon+igned to gaol to undergo the remainder of his original sentence. THE ROAD MURDER. We announced a few days since that an inquiry into the circumstances of this mysterious case, the interest in which appe rs to increase rather than diminish, bad been commenced fore Mr. Slack, of Bath, a solicitor, who acting apparentlyou government authority, had commenced a private examination of Mr. Kent's servants. as witnesses, on Tuesday last. On Wednesday a second batch of wit nesses to the number of six were despatched to Bath, but they consisted wholly of those who had been witnesses on previous occasions before the magistrates. The authority on which Mr. Slack was so vigorously acting has not been allowed to transpire, and indefinite answers have been re turned to all inquiries on the point. Naturally anxious on this subject, Mr. Kent has. through his solicitor, Mr. Dunn, written to Mr. Slack, saying that if he were really ( for government every andstance should be rendered to To this Mr. Slack replied that he was " regu larly instructed by authority to endeavour to de tect the murderer," and inquired if the evidence of Mr. and Mn. Kent should be required, would they attend at his offices on Monday or Tuesday next to be ex amined. Again, a letter was sent intimating that as Mr. Dunn could not tell but that Mr. Slack was preparing evi deuce for a local paper, he should be averse to proceed fur ther in the matter until he was satisfied on the point. Mr. Slack replied that " those who had instructed him were acting under the sanction of the government," and request ing agsiu that Mr. Kent should be forthcoming. The re joinder to this is published in the Somerset and Willa Journal, published last evening (Friday). Mr. Dunn says that no satisfactory reply has been afforded to hie inquiry ▪ tad the parties for whom and with what object Mr. Slack is instructed. Mr. Kent, he says, has always been most desirous to assist the authorities in discovering the truth ; but Mr. Slack's communications had afforded him no means of judging whether these measures were calculated to promote justice. He adds, "s you speak of acting under instructions which have the unction of the Home Secretary, I may inform you that Mr. Kent received this morning a communication from Mr. Waddington, rela tive to a proposed public inquiry, in which no mention whatever is made of your being employed by government, nor any request that Mr. Kent should put himself in communication with you. • • • For aught we know you may be acting under the instructions of the detective officer, whose former proceedings in this case have been condemned by the almost universal voice of the country." Mr. Dunn goes on to say that Mr. Kent is still most willing to submit himself, his wife, and every member of his household to examination on oath or otherwise, by any magistrate of the county, or other competent official whom the government may appoint ; but that, acting on the recommendation of counsel, Mr. Kent will not accede to the request to attend at Mr. Slack's office, believing the course now being adopted to be calculated to impede jus tice. We may add that the present step has by no means satisfied those who were most desirous for a special com mission, and great dissatisfaction prevails at this singular step. The following letter has been received by the Mayor of Bath in reply to the memorial from that city, which was forwarded to the Home-office through Mr. Tits, M.P.: " Whitehall, Sept. 3. " Sir,—l have received and laid before Sir G. Lewis a memorial signed by yourself and many other highly respec table gentlemen of Bath and its neighbourhood, calling the attention of the Secretary of State to the murder lately committed at Road. lou represent in thin statement that the family iu whose house the murder took place may be collectively responsible for it, but the individuals of whom it is compueed have not, in the proceedings which have taken place, been examined and cross-examined as to their complicity in that frightful transaction. You add that, in your opinion, such an inquiry is neces sary for the ends of justice, and you pray Sir George Lewis to grant a special commission fur the investigation of the crime, as the ordinary means have entirely failed. lam directed by Sir George Lewis to inform you that he is satis fied, upon due consideration of this matter, that he would not be justified in advising her Majesty to create an excep tional and extraordinary tribunal, for the purpose of inter inviting persons suspected of this murder. To supersede, in a case of this description, the established courts of justice, which are governed by well-known and carefully defined rules, and to estahlt4h by royal authority, is their stead, a commission ex..rvising new and arbitrary power of examination, unknown to the English law, would he, in his opinion, highly unconstitutional, and a departure from the principles upon which this country has long been governed. The doctrine that, in cases of great obscurity and difficulty like the present, on which the existing law appears at first to be insufficient, that law is to be strained or altogether superseded, appears to Sir G. Lewis to be of a most dan gerous description. The rules which govern our ordinary court. are intended, not only for the detection of guilt, hut also for the protection of innocence from unjust accusations, and when the crime is of so grievous a nature as to excite • strong feeling of horror and indignation in the public mind, a strict adherence to those rules is absolutely necessary for the fair and impartial administration of_justice.—l am. sir, WILDDIV ,, Pr•- _ • your obedient servant, " li. WADDLYGTON. " The Right Worshipful the Mayor of Bath." A correspondent adds :—" It is satisfactory to know, however, that although a royal commission has been refused , the government have intimated to the Wiltshire magistrates a desire that the matter be further inquired into, and in accordance with the hints given, the magistrates have re tained Mr. Slack, of Bath, a solicitor of great experience in criminal proceedings, and in every way maculated to pursue the investigation to go into the whole case, beginning de nor°. The wh olei of the depositions have been laid before Mr. Sleek, who has had a conference with the magistrates thereon, and has subsequently had several of the inmates of the house under examination at his office in Bath. The in quiry is, of course, strictly private." DEATHS FROM THE. INFLAMMABILITY OF CLOTHING. The public mind, so slow to be moved in all that suggests the sacrifice of old habits, takes but lazily to the idea of adopting any of the solutions recommended for ren dering ladies light clothing non-inflammable. Meantime a constant suocession of deaths occur due to this sole. muse. The total number of persons who died in the United King. dem from burns and maids during the year 1858 was 3,125. Of these, uo small proportion met with their deaths by their clothes catching lire. Neither number nor rank is wanting to emphasise the sad calamities due to the habitual employment by ladies of light and combustible attire. This lest week adds to the list of victima,the Countess de St. Mamault, one of the Princess ladies of honour, who has just expired at Paris from the effect of burns which she had received while endeavouring to save another lady whose dress had caught fire at a ball. Not even royalty Las escaped these Perils ; and the severe burns some time since collared by the Princess Frederick William of Prussia, owing to the ignition of her dress while she was in the act of sealing a letter, led to the institution of the latest and most sumesdul inquiries into the means of prevent ing the ignition of light textile fabrics. These investi gations were undertaken at the express desire of the Queen ; and it is stated by Messrs. Versmann and Oppen helm that the solutions of tuogotate of soda, cud other sate which they recommend, may be employed without risk of injury to the texture or colours of the fain ie. Granted that there may be a tinge of partiality in the opinions of these chemists, so valuable an immunity is cheaply purchased by the loss of a creamy shade of white. 'mess, or the variation of a tint in the many-coloured goa -1 samer robes of fashion. Let our modern beauties shun the example as they would the fate of the moth. Modern chemistry offers them the means of decking their forms in bright vestmente which defy the flames that may in a moment render those they now wear more fatal than the robe of Dejanirs. Steeped in these choreic waters, their stuffs will crumble, but never burn amidst the fiercest flames ; and decked in these plumes, rivalling the feather', of the phomix, beauty may frolic secure from firs.—Lanrct. Tea STAFFORD MURDISRLE.—The man Twigg, who is now in Stafford gaol waiting his trial for the wilful murder of hie wife, at Bilaton, in that county, I at written two letters to his relations, who have now the charge of his children, in which he refers with poignant feelings to the cause to which his erinie is traceable. He tells his children " never to look at drink and liquors, to knock off bed cono. any, and prepare to meet Gol, for their wicked drunken father's lake." To his wife's brother he writes, •' I hove when your family and mine see liquors and drink they will take it to be a sting from a merpent, for Icy sate." In the second letter he fourtimes refers to the " drink and liquors" as having influenced him to murder his wife, whom he calls his "tender bosom friend." Again, "for his sake," he urges his " butty workmen never to look at drink nor liquors ;" and concludes by saying, " God knows I little thought I should have been snatched away like this, through drunkenness."
