'The following trial. which took place last Tuesday at Glow ,etater. excited an uncommon degree of interest. The prisoner • was to have been tried on the Friday preceding , but in conse quence ache absence of the Hight Hon. Charles Bathurst. who Nal, detained in town by public business. it was postponed. Mr. Bathurst was the Magistrate before whom the prisoner was first taken, and to his unremitting perseverance may be attributed the dultimate discovery of the foul offence with which he stood Charged. William Burton, aged 33. stood capitally indicted for the wilfid aniorder of W - m. Syma, in the month of November last. Mr. Ludlow. in detailing the facts of the case to the Juey, e their serious and path:lt attention. The crime imputed et i : a eprisoner, he said, was one of the deepest malignancy—ie was that of the cool and deliberate murder of a fellow creature, of .which, if be were found guilty. his own life would be the deserved forfeit. The awful con..cipienees to the prisoner, and the due admir.ietration of theirown important but painfulduty. demanded tlta&the Joey, upon the present occasion, should come to the consideration of the evidence which he should submit to them. with minds unprejudiced by the natural feelings arising upon the contemplation of such an offence, and with a determination to form their judgment soiely upon the proofs which would be ad. deced. These ;goofs were entirely circumstancial; but they were ao interwoven toe one with the other, and the chain of facts was altogether eer unbroken. that he was apprehensive there could not patient a shadow of doubt in their minds that the prisoner had 'DWI justly accused. The Ler coed Counsel then proceeded e",:smrtly to state the facts of the case. They were these :—On the Id of November, the prisoner and the deceased,W. Syms, set out tagetlize in a boat belonging to • Mr. Hurd, from Woollaston to Bristol. .Having transacted some business, in consequence of stress of weather they put into a place called Pyle. where they Were seen in company at a puhlic-bouse. On this occasion the deceased proton:ad several Bank notes. On the 7th. they again betook themselves to the boat, to return to Woollaston. In their stay down the &on to the Severn, they were seen by several pople. The prisoner arrived at Woollaston, but deceased did rat. This excited surprise, and enquiries were made of the pri .pan as to what had become of his companhin ; to these alembics he gave contradictory answers; at one time taying that he had staid at Pyle, and at another, that he had put hint on shore by his own desire, at a place called the Eastern Point, and that he had expressed an intention of sailing for America. At first no :spicion , of foul play were entertained, hut subsequent citcum. -s.ances led to a discovery of the dreadful deed. The boat was esaminerl. and on the gunwale and after-bench stains of blood were distinctly discovered, although it appeared that every at e mint had been made by means of a mop and water to eradicate ,them. This prodoced further enquiry, and it was ascertained that t he prisoner had set out for Bristol in a state of extreme penury; that at the time he lett l'yle, on his Tema home with the de. ,coased, he was equally distressed; but that immediately after he landed at tVuolleetom he seemed to have become suddenly rich. :.Lie commenced by changing two Sf. notes of the Chepstow Bank, a m; in payment of a small sum, and the other merely for the sake ,of the almange. He also began to live in a style of extravagance, 'cult* o: vattenee with his former state of ).nverty. It was next found that the deceased, on the day of Ins leaving Pyle, was in .psteession of three 51. Chepstow Bank notes. together with 'same smaller ones of the same Bank. Those lie was oheerved. previous to his embarkation. to put into his left hand breoches racket, which. when his body was subserviently picked up. Was !eland torned inside out. To them werre added other facts eaoally stwAietous. On the morning of the supposed le', a handkerchief was seen in the hand of the &erased; it was 'marked W. S., and this handkerchief was in to the posere eian in the prisoner. Upon an alarm being raised, he had lent it to a man of the name of Davies, who wouln be called as • witnses. Is farther turned out, that the prisoner, shortly ante cedent to the disappearance of Syne, Irtal been repeatedly stp • Flying to Hord to lend him a trw shillings. His shoes had ac cidentally hurl, awl he then declared " that he Was linable to refit himself, and that lie must box hart to raise the wind to buy himself a pair of slates, though he should go ,the devil for it." Upon being called upon in account for his increase of wealth, he butted. that he had borrowed from an old shipmate of the name 01.1011L . 5, while he was at Bristol. 81.; but unfortu nately for him, and happily for the ends of justice, this statement eras discovered to be utterly without foundation, for, inde pendent of the faze that, at the moment he was leavieg Betool I.e had not the attrane of paying for his breakfast, It would he psovevi hy the wife of Jones, the man himself being at sea, :that at the time in qtmeetioo Jones had been eery notch dis teased ter Money, and could not have made any such advance— *tided to wldeh. his intimacy with the prisoner was Of so caste! earnire ae to forbid s uc h an :ao of friendship, even if be had it `.tit power.

The immense arrival of Foreign Barley during last week, and the major part of it being of extraordinary fine quality, together with the supply from our coast, being much larger than could have been expected at the late period of the season, has caused a further reduction in 'hi , price of this article of full 2s. per quarter from our quotations of this day week ; but at this decline the trade was more lively for fine samples, but the inferior descriptions continue unsaleable— Oats are Is. per quarter cheaper. the arrivals being large, both cf English and Foreign.
