4 INUNDATIONS. On Sunday evening last, about half-past ten o'clock, the inhabitants of Thorverton, near Exeter, were suddenly and unexpectedly alarmed by a heavy shower, or rather torrent of rain, which continued ithout intermission, for the space of two hours. A small stream of water which puns through the village increased. in less than an hoisr, six feet in height, which never oecurred before within the recollection of the oldest inhabitant. Such was the rapidity of the stream, that for some time, doubts w ere entertained as to the saving a single house adjoining it—parts of three houses fell, and many more were completely in undated. Several walls were thrown down, and three bridges for the coavenience of crossing the stream were also swept away. Several women and children were obliged to beitaken out of the windows of their Houses ; the principal part of their furniture was float ing about previous to their leaving. The Rev. Mr. Cowhand was awoke by the falling of a fence wall be longing to the vicarage house : on his coming down weirs be found the furniture and books floating about the house, the water three feet high in each room on the ground floor, and litterally running out at the windows. Mr. Radmore had a house thrown down, and considerable damage done to others. Mr. Dyer, of the Dolphin Inn, who bad a malt house near the stream, which at the time contained between 300 and 400 bushels of malt, anxious to preserve his property, repaired to the spot with a person to assist iu removing it, hut the water rushing io, it appeared dangerous to remain, and they had scarcely quitted the building when it fell in with a tremendous crash ; about 218 1,0.-Itels of malt and barley were washed away, which, with the building was worth not less than 2501. The extent of the damage incurred could not be ascertained until the tremendous torrents of rain bad ceased.—lt was then computed on a moderate calculation, to amount to upwards of 6001 . W. Bragg, =lister, had 50 bushels of malt spoiled by the water, and a barn thrown down. Messrs. Bate and Wreford also suffered considerably. The weather in this quarter, since our last, has been very variable. On the evening of Thursday last (15th inst.) an uncommonly heavy fall of rain came on, at tended with boisterous wind, which continued with little intermission till the following morning. We understand that to the westward it was attended with injurious consequences, particularly -to such potatoe fields as were on elevated spots. In one case, near the Bridge of Ardocb, so powerful and sudden was the rush ever a field, that the potatoes were completely carried away and lodged in a gully beneath. The Forth was swollen so high as almost to overflow its banks. From this state the weather changed to a smart frost, and this morning that has given way to a heavy fall of snow, attended with raw cold weather.— §lir/iity Journal.) Boisterous winds and heavy rains have visited us at short intervals during the past ten days. The river Edin has overflowed its banks and laid the low grounds under water twice this week. The cattle-market is in a sad condition: the drains, too, in the neighbour -1:tood of the walks, are much in want of attention. — (Carlisle Patriot.) . No flood in this vicinity was ever remembered to be higher than that occasioned by the excessive coin yesterday se'nuight. Some of the roads and houses were Intodated to the depth of two or three feet; and the water was so rapid at Rutiabridge, on the Lyndhurst road, that a cart and horse, with two men, were carried down a considerable distance from the road. The men and horse were after sow, time rescued wiihout much injury. but a quantity of grocery goods in the cart was spoiled.—(Nostetamplon paper.) va statem ent of the: purchases trade in behalf of the blinking Fund foi the Preach National Debt, it appears, that front the Ist of January to the 31st of Oct... of the present year, they have amounted to '3,653;312 francs de ?vete, . the cost of which was 62,429,000 francs.

Yesterday evening an iediaidtiOS-IPal bald 'beton Thos. Higgs, Esq. on the body of a respetabli looking gentleman, unknown, who on Sunday tokght bad walkedl into the Thames, near Essex Wharf, off a passage leading from the stairs to the river. Four accidents of a similar nature, two of them attended with fatal consequences, have occurred, within the last two years, occasioned by the want of a bar or gate ; the pavement of the court ends abruptly on the edge of the water, and a few feet above it. The first witness called, was Mr. Wm. Holmes, of the firm of Soulsby, Holmes, and Co. coal-merchants. He stated that on Sunday night while in bed, be beard cries as of some persons in distress, and went to the window which overlooked his wharf, but could not see any thing. The watchman then cried the hour of the night, and the deceased again shouted very loudly for assistance in a smothered tone of voice. The watchman sprang his rat tle, and alarmed the neighbourhood. Witness got up and called his servant, who procured a light, but the wind blew it out. More assistance was sent for, as wit ness being unwell was obliged to keep within the house. Nathaniel Young, a lighterman at the wharf, said, that yesterday morning, about twenty minutes put one o'clock, he was called up, and instantly repaired to the spot with drags. He continued to march for the deceased till two, when he went home, but returned again at fix, and found the body about 20 or 30 yards from the place where it bad fallen in, which was at the bottom of Essex steps, leading from Essex-street. There was no spy arsnce of violence about his person; the deceased is apparently about 45 years of age, and of respectable appearance : be is dressed in • pepper acrd salt surtout coat, blue pantaloons, and waistcoat of the same colour, with gilt buttons. His boots are laced up in front, and he has a flannel waistcoat and drawers next the skin, nearly new. His pocket-handkerchief is marked R. N., N 0.6, and his shirt R. N. No. i. He is about 5 feet 7 inches in height, and has the appearance of a respectable man. There was found on his person ss. in silver, a pen-knife, and pencil-case, and an old-fashioned watch, maker's name, " Charles Edmonds, Liverpool, No. 1914," to which is attached a steel chain, and a metal seal and key. There being no other evidence, the Jury went to view the dangerous place where the accident occurred, ind on their return expressed their wonder anti indig nation that some security had not been placed to pre vent accidents which might so easily occur, particu larly after the many accidents that had already hap pened. It was suggested to address the Lord Mayor on the subject. and by their verdict, to express the surprise they felt at no security being made. After some further consideration, they returned a verdict to the following effect:— Accidentally drowned, .occasioned by culpable neglect, there being no fence or bar to prevent accidents. [PROM vita MANCHESTER GUARDIAN.] I An inquest was held on Wednesday, at the Spruill Eagle Inn, in Salford. on the body of John Lavert y. ' who was mortally wounded with a penknife, by Wile Liam Carr, the son of a respectable coachnsaker in Ail town.—As our Reporter was not permitted by the Co" roner to remain in the inquest room (of which we shall speak presently), we cannotAgiee a detailed account of the proceedings there, and neeett r eftent. our with relating such facts as we seal i collect in other - • .*3 -. : . quarters. It appears that Mr. Cur was standing witt afethaln of doubtful character, in a passage leading oat of Miller's-lane. Green-gate, Salford, when the deceased, accompanied by two other lads, came by, and . being informed by another person at the end of the street, that there was a couple in' the passage, the deceased, one of the boys who was with him, and their informant went into the passage, and demanded from Carr the payment'of a fine, which is. we understand, frequent ' ly required by fellows in the street, from persons de tected in equivocal situations. . This Carr refused to pay ; a short altercation, and, we are informed, a blow or two ensued between him and the deceased, but with whom the blows originated we could. not learn. Carr, however, pulled out a penknife. told the deceased se veral times he would stab him if he did not desist; and at length, but bow it did not appear, the deceased was wounded by the knife in his left breast. The de ceased fell immediately, exclaiming that he was stab bed, but being raised by the boy who was with him, he staggered as far as the house to which he was going (about 30 yards), and died in a few minutes after reaching it ; the knife, as afterwards appeared, having penetrated an inch into his heart. Though Mr. Carr might easily have effected his escape, he did not attempt it, but called for the watch. and seized a boy who was near the spot, charging him, the deceas ed, and another persOn, .with an attempt to rob him. On being questioned, be immediately avowed that he bad stabbed the deceased, bat said it was in his own defence. When taken into custody he made no resist ance. There wag; we understood, no evidence adduced at the inquest to fix Carr as the persea who stabbed • the deceased, except his own declarations. Twelve of the Jury, who were, as usual iti 'such cases sixteen in number, returned a verdiakf manslaughter. . With respect to the charieter of Laverty, we have heard various statements ; but we are credibly infertile; ed that he had worked tine years' for Messrs. WWI - and Kennedy, and was the chief support of i widowed mother. He was IS years old. • Our Coroner has, in this case, taken a liberly'with the la** in excluding the public from the inquest room. He knows than an. inqttett io (we hope it will always continue) an open Court ; and yet' we are in formed he has aishmed the power of fircibly'expelling from it persons who had as much right ti!ere'lis him silt'.

Ocnnuott..—The neighbourhood of Bennett's hill, Doctors' Cotnmons, was all in an uproar abou t nine o'clock on Sunday Whin, in consequence of an alarm of thieves; two men were seen making their escape in great haste out of the house of Mr. Hill, a green-grocer ; the cry of " stop thief" was immediate ly raised, and a general pursuit took place as far as Ludgate-bill, where two men, supposed to be the thieves, were overtaken, and brought back in custody. On inquiry, it appeared, that while Mr. Cox, a lodger of Mr. Hill's, with his wife and child, were dressing for church, two fellows broke forcibly in through the window and made the best of their way down stairs. It turned out that the Excise officers having received information of an illicit distillery being carried on at No. 10, Bennett's-hill, were watching near the spot, and the door happening to be opened, they rushed in, the knot of distillers dispersed in all directions, and two of them finding no other means of escape, bad broke in through Mr. Cox's window, the premises being adjoining. The two men taken were brought before Mr. Alder man Cox at this Justice Room, yesterday ; they gave their names Samuel and John Peppard, father and son, and Mr. Longhorn, a solicitor, attended on their behalf. Charles Land, an Exciseman, stated, that in conse quence of information received, he, and a brother of ficer entered the house, and found in the loft a still, capable of holding 150 gallons, a large quantity of low nines, and a tub of wash ready for working. There was some wash in the still which was warm, as if it bad lately been at work. He and his partner could identify the two prisoners as being on the pre mises, and the being on the premises where there was a private still, rendered persons amenable under the Statute. , Mr. Longhorn inquired under what statute the of ficers acted ? _ _ _ Land requested time to go to the Excise-office, to furnish himself wilb the law upon the subject. This was allowed, and on his return lie shook his head and said, he feared he was done this time. On looking into the statute be found, that the persons must be seen in the still room to make them liable, and the fact was, that he and his partner bad seen the prisoners on the pre•oises, but not in the still room.— T his put an end to the case, as far as the Excise was concerned. Mr. Alderman Cox thought there was still a charge against the prisoners, for breaking into the adjoining house ; but after some discussion they were discharged. flow-svaxm—A respectable-looking man, of the name of White, appeared at this office yesterday with his solicitor, before Sir RICHARD BIRNIC, and com plained that he was in the custody of one of the 'Bow-street men, who bad arrested him on Sunday week upon a warrant for a misdemeanour, which had been issued at the Mansion-house, and backed by one of the Magistrates of this office. He also stated that the officer had arrested him in Surrey. Sir Rictiano Blame said that he would not inter fere in the case. It appeared to him, that all the par ties had laid themselves open to an action for false im prisonment, in arresting a man for a misdemeanour -on a Sunday. The only cases in which such an ar rest was justifiable were those of murder, robbery. and breaches of the peace under peculiar circumstances. The officer was also anwarranted in apprehending the `defendant in Surrey. 'Mr. White observed, that there was not the slightest pretext for charging him with the tommiesion of any offence Irhatever ; but it was a device which the other party had recourse to for the purpose of having an op. portunity, upon his being taken before the Lord Mayor, of executing a writ which they bad issued against him, and out of the way of which he was an xious to remain for a short time, as he expected money in the course of a fortnight. by which he would be enabled to discharge the debt; bat if before then he were thrown into prison, lie should be ruined. Sir R. Blame replied, that be saw clearly it was a trick to effect the execution of a writ ; and he should certainly notice the part which the officer had taken in it. The officer said that the complainant had applied at Bow-street for a person to apprehend the defendant, and having the warrant backed by Mr. Halls, he ac companied him ; and the defendant was pointed out to him by the complainant. Mr. White asked if he was not justified in refusing to accompany the officer ? The Officer said that he would take him to the Man sion-house, and deliver him up there. Sir RICHARD BIRNIE defined to give Mr. White any advice in the case. In Lis opinion he was illegally in custody. Mr. White said, that in that case, be would not ac company the officer to the Mansion-house, as he knew there were persons there to execute the writ upon him. He accordingly, putting on his hat, walked out of the office. At a subsequent period of the day, the complainant's solicitor came to the office and stated that he ender ; stood Sir Richard Birnie had discharged Mr. White in the morning. Bit. Rased( n replied, that he bad done no - such thing. He bad declined all interference in the business. But, he should certainly discharge the office! who had arrested him.: •. ~. i The solicitor,ohserved, in jitstifiention of the officer, that one of the worthy magistrires,hadt'nformed him, that he might, apprehend a jean ' on Sunday, under a 'warrant fur # midenteanottr. . iSir ftiFnam littwis replied, that be thought it teiOrt4ll4os3hskt any of the magis:rates had pronuunced #eyipcit opinion., Here the matte; rested. ?

It was impos sible lie could get up his time. Exhaustion overtook bins first in sickness after finishing labour on Friday, in ten minutes under the twelve hours, which he par tially recovered. On Sunday he was within a few minutes, and went to bed lame. The match is for 200 guineas of his own. DREADFUL AFFAIR.—On Wednesday night Mr. Farish, jun., late of Stoneyleas, in company with two of his comrades, went to the boom of Mr. Armstrong, in (ilingar, parish of Ilalfmorton, Dumfriesshire, in order, as it is supposed, to sweet heart the lasses; but Mr. Armstrong not relishing the company of such visitants, desired them instantly to depart, or, if not, he was determined to realm a public example of any one who should, after such notice, remain en his premises. The two individeals above alluded to at once took the hint, and departed; but the poor and unconscious Farish under the in fluence of a stronger passion, and seemingly regard less of the angry and causeless threatening' of a neighbour, reatured to linger with hie fair oat for a few minutes after their departure, when Arm strong watched the opportunity of his crossing the .farm-yard, levelled at him a well-chargell %Aug piece, and shot him through the heart,. by Aka he instantly expirest!--(Carlisle Patriot.) GALVANIC PHENQUILNA.—The body of .George Thee, who was executed at Aberdeen last week, having, agree ably to his sentence, been given for dissection to Dn. Skene and Ewing, was subject to a series of galvanic experiments, of which, with their results, we subjoin the following brief account :—The body was brought into the dissecting-room, about an hoar after suspension, and still retained nearly i ts natural beat. The upper part of the spinal cord and the sciatic nerve were immediately laid bare, and a galvanic arc was then established, by apply ing the positive wire to the spine, and the negative to the sciatic nerve, when a general convulsive stetting of site body was produced. Another communication was then made between the Spine and the Ulnae Nerve, and considerable contractions took place in the arm and fore arm. When the circle was formed with the Spine and Radial Nerve, both at the elbow and wrist successively, powerful contractions of the muscles of the whole arm and hand were produced. The hand was dosed with such violence, as to resist the exertions of one of the as sistants to keep it open. When a connexion was esta blished between the Radial Nerve and the Supra and IM fri Orbital Nerves, strong contractions of the muscles of the brow, face, and mouth, were produced, so as to affect the under jaw, and to distort the countenance in a very sing nlar manner. The eye-lids were strongly contracted; and when the wire was applied directly to the ball oldie eye, the Iris contracted and dilated very sensibly. A Galvanic circle being formed , first bet ween the Par Vs gum and Diaphragm, and then between that muscle amid the great s ympatisetic,little obvious effect was produced. After applying Galvanism directly to the nerves store mentioned, the skin of the face was moistened with water and upon running the wire over different parts of it. Iti• miler effects were produced in the muscles of the face, as by. direct communication made with the nerves. The tongue also moved in all directions, by touching the sort face with the Galvanic wire. The whole experimen t s were performed in about an bony and a qu arter, wheelie heat of the body was considerably dimi n i shed. A p e r erful Galvanic apparatus (consisting of abo ut 300 pot of plates,) was used; but from, not being insulate 4, considerable quantity of the tialvaniaus escaped, al? ti; 4 every metallic substance nixing oi.c . table . 0 " bi g hl i chirged_ DUCD.
