But I submit that as evi demo Is constantly given by third persons as to the happiness with fetish a husband and wife have lived, the best evidence must ie considered, for this purpose, the letters that piss between them.

You weresiestined to hear the lettering account of per mits who had only seen this man and wife now and then, in their hay dremes, when their /aces mere lighted up with ' smiles, son, perhaps, to be derkested by a frown. With the exception a/ one or two Wanness( the badly, you have been favoured with Mrs. Dodd--denbtlems a dissent and matronly-looking personage, an ocessional visitor to Mrs. Lang.

These are the theeripdan of persons called, beyond the family of lies. Lang. Amid now, °tailgates, when you cane .n tie family : the yourg lady who was examined, and the other, whom 1, consulting, I make no doubt, your feelings as well as my own ' would not su ff er to be examined, admitting that she would gust have said as much, and of as little importance as her Mater— ialist, let me ask vou, was the amount of the testimony ? They never saw any diKrence between Mr. and Mrs. Laing . . Gentle men, it is not a sister who knows those matters ; it is not to a younger sister such things are confided. These differences may be pretty constant, and few of the members of the wife's family ac quainted with them. It is not to a brother or father that they are confided, lest interferences might he the result, but it is to a mo ther they are entrusted, and the mother lives, and she is net called ; nay, her exuemewge is resorted to, in coder , if possibly, to answer this objection. And what is that age ? What do you think was the answer expected when that question was proposed by my learned Friend—lW, at least, or 73, and very infirm—So; but fs3, and in rude health, and without infirmity. The best testimony in the world--that irother's evidence—they have kept sway, bemuse they knew it would prove unfavourable to them, had they subjected her to a eras-examination hem to-day. I must now, tientlenten, re mind you of one or two points, which cannot fail to have struck you, as they did me to-day. The conduct of Captain Laing I have no right to impeach ; I think it unblameable; but if I thought differently, I am bound up by Mr. Delamere's instructions to say nothing 4winst it. I believe that an a husband his conduct was unmarked by indiscretion. I believe it to have been free from blame. It was his misfortune, and not his fault, that lie was compelled to pass nine-tenths of his life away from his wife. By Mr. Laing's Learned Counsel she is described as a very lovely WOIIIIIZI, very likely to excite desire in towegulated urinals, and of course subjected herself, as well as subjecting others, to temptation. I cannot help considering it as an indiscretion that Mr. Laing should have committed his affairs to two very worthy, and,' I make ho doubt, very . honourable, friends, but who appear to me, from the exhibition they made hem to-day, as little discreet--to have their feelings as little regulated and attuned to that disposition which is indispensable before a man takes upon himself the delicate and difficult task of interfering between man and wife- The remonstrances, the tone, and the interference of which you heard so much to-day, was rather unsuited to the me distorial office into which they meautionsly embarked. nut what had been the conduct of Captain Laing to-day y What have been his feelings towards this unhappy woman, when, in order to catch at a.little increase of damages, he has produced, very unnecessarily, rune of the most disgusting testimony, and he has called before you other witnesses, the very exhibition of whom was painful and even agonising. I allude to the disgusting testimony of Sarah Petit, and the fainting and pallid sisters, whom be dragged before you to rove his worth as a husband, and testify their sister's shame. The Learned Deatleman, in conclusion, adverted to the situation of the defendant's wife, and implored of the Jurry not to award the plain tiff damages which would have the effect of ruining the wife and family of the defendant, instead of punishing the guilty. Finally he left the case to their consideration—to their merciful as well as their just consideration. They would award a compensa. Son for the civil injury, and not vindictive damages. So would they discharge the conacieatieua obligation which their oath that day had imposed upon . them. Die SEcos DART, in addressing the Jury, called their attention to what seemed to him a singular discrepancy in the speech of Me. Brougham. He had complained in the early part of his very powerful speech that the mother had not been called, and subse quently he had attached biotic to the plaintiff, and described his co:uluct as heartless and unfeeling in producing so many members of his wife's family. Would it, in the mind of the Learnes! Counsel for the defendant, have diminished that heartlessness had he summoned the mother to give testimony of her daughter's fate ? The Jury would take the whole of the evidence into their serious cousiderauxon, and sly. by their verdict, to what damages the plain tiff was reasonably entitled for the injury he had sustained. The Jury deliberated for a few minutes, and returned a verdict fee the plaintiff. Damages, 2,0001. EXCHEQUER CHAMBER, Tx( CSIDAY. FLANAGAN T. WATKINS. This day the Judgeri - of the Court of Common Pleas proceeded to the Exchequer (lumbers, where all the Barons were sitting, to bear arguments in this case. ' Mr. PLATT and Mr. EVAN'S, Counsel for the parties, were lewd at great length. It appeared that a mum of the name of Martin en *inky to Watkins of three hundred pounds on a bond by Flanagan for 4,2001.. which was executed in March ?To Oich was annexed an indenture, whLeb recited thee bk ;bet Watkins did' not pertorm all the stipulations of the bond diet /ha nagan would do so.

Mr. PLATT cited mar, y CANS 011 behalf of she " tended that be was not liable. The Cettki any gediter, ; di E li gt• ea alas esclamatinn, " The chatiren !" I went on towards the dining. nom ; the children were then shrieking iu the passage , but cmild ' not tell what had happened. I then, in a moment, turned on the right towards the nursery door, and, on opening it, saw the de ceased lying on the floor, his feet dower& the door, and his head from me. He was lying rather on the right side, but I could see his lett cheek. There was a pistol on the floor on the right behind him, and another lower down, near his knees. The woman-ser vant, Frances Towning, was sitting on a low their by the side of the fire-plat e, her bead reclining against the mantle-piece, or wall, and groaning most piteously ; her head was bleeding profusely ; I saw streams of blood all over her head and face. At this time I thought deceased had shot himself, and was dead ; he was lying quite still. The servant, Frances Towning, was behind him ; 1 saw blood flowing from his mouth. I called loudly for assistance. De ceased then turned round, and muttering something, fixed his eyes upon us—l think I said, " Oh, Joseph !" on which, to my great surprise, he made a struggle, as if recovering from a fainting tit, and got on his legs ; upon which I instantly grasped him by the right arm, and also took him by the coat. He struggled to dis engage himself from me, and I called out fir assistance. He sue ceeded in getting from me, and seemed to stagger for a moment; I saw the blood in his mouth ; I made an attempt to seize the skirts of his coat, but missed my aim. At that instant, as he was run. ning from me towards the kitchen, Mks Warren was brought in bleeding ; my first thought on seeing her was, that she had re ceived a pistol shot. She was laid d.iwn as gently as was possible on these& in the dining-room ; I heard the deceaaed distinctly run up the two pair back stairs, and shut his door with great violence. I then immediately ran up after him, and called Mr. Bailey to fol. low me. When I got to the deer, I found it secure, and I burst it open. I then saw the deceased mantling at the dressing-table, in the act of cutting his throat, as described by the preceding witness. Deceased turned round and fell down. I remained in the mom a few minutes, until Mr. bidden came. Deceased had lived fourteen yeses with me as my servant. He was a man of uncommon strong passions, and very suseentible of excitement. During the last year, since Lady-Day, I have observed a difference in his conduct to what it formerly used to be; at times he appeared dejected. I had it in centemplation to discharge him, since which he appeared particularly dejected. Ile had been informed that he must quit my service, and had received a month's notice about a month ago ' and from an apprehension that he would do himself some mischief, he had received permission to stay until lady-Day, when his year's service would terminate. For the last four or flee months he had not been in the same happy state he was formerly. I know nnthing of any quarrel he had had with Frances Towning yesterday morning, nor do I believe that any had then taken place, or at any preceding time. Deceased had been engaged to marry her for the last four or five years, but was fearful that he should not do so well if married, and in business, ea he . did in service; I have remonstrated with him on the isn r propriety of delaying his marriage after so long a time, but de cen-ed said he could not pietas himself with a shop in which to begin business. I cannot say that he wait in a fit state of mind to be trusted. Deceased had declared that he never would live unless he was permitted to remain in his service until his year was regu larly expired. On Sunday evening deceased went to his mistress, and implored her, is very energetic terms, to intercede with me to keep him until the year was expired, and on being acquainted with his wishes, and apprehensive lest he might commit some violence on hituself if refused, I consented to his request. On the slightest excitation, deceased was quite ungovernable, and would listen to no persuasion or argument. I know the cause of his late excita tion, and which muse led to the intention of discharging him ; it was a circumstance of a pecuniary nature relating to my household expenditure. Decease) had asked Frances Towning " whether she had ever thought of her being buried with him in one grave ?" and said " lie had been thinking of it that day." This Frances Town ing told me yesterday, after the dreadfu l occurrence. One of the pistols appeared to have dashed in the pan, bat remained loaded with a bullet, the other had been recently discharged. I think de ceased shot himself in the nursery before he ran up stairs and cut his throat, and am of opinion that the ball is now in the body. When I entered the nurse'' , room, the smell of gunpowder was ex ceedingly strong. I have the pitaols.— ',The pistols were produced; daeyy were of a small pocket size, and on being unscrewed, one was friend loaded with ball, without any printing remaining, from its having, it Is pentomal, lathed in the pan, and the other bad been recently loaded ed dlsehoged.)

The Herefbrd Jonroel of Monday gives the following additional particulars, relative to the melancluily accident at the late tight : " It is with regret we state one of the persons injured by the falling of the stands at Worcester Race Course, during the late fight there, died in the Worcester Infirmary on Monday ten night. Ills name was James Treby, a livery-stable keeper in London. am' formerly a vocal performer at Covent-garden The atre. The deceased, it appears, was upon the northern range of the building at the time of its giving way, and was taken from amidst the mass of disjointed timber, with a compound fracture of the right leg near the ankle joint, and a part of the bone protruding through the skin. The poor sufferer was home diatcly conveyed to the Infirmary, where he received that skilful treaunent and attention his calamitous state required ; the frac ture was reduced, and for five or six days there was every reason to hope he would do well, and that amputation would be unne. cessary. In the course of Friday, however, inflammation, fever, and delirium presented themselves, and upon a consultation being held among the medical attendants of the Institution, ft was decided that the only chance of saving the patient's life was the instant removal of the limb. The unfortunate men being informed of this decision, and convinced of its necessity, as sented to the operation. It was accordingly performed the same evening; but, unhappily, so rapidly had the inflamma tion spread itself throughout his system, that no human (tint could arrest it. pmgress, and after lingering until about tour o'clock in the afternoon of Monday, the poor fellow expired. On IVednestLy an inquest was held upon the body at the In firmary, before John Platt, Esq. one of the Coroners for Worcester. The examination of witnesses occupied from eleven in the morning until seven in the evening. The main purport of the inquiry was to ascertain whether the arcuinstantos attending it were the result of culpable negligence, and if so, upon whom was such negligence chargeable. Mr. Share, clerk of thecourse, and Mr. Wood, a car penter, were the p oint , esses whose testimony touched more parti cularly upon this and never was testimony upon the same sub ject more conflicting or more at variance. It was stated by the former that the timber ter the structure was not only supplied by Mr. Wood, but that lie superintended the erection • on the other hand, Mr. 'Wood denied having further to do with the buildings than the furnishing of the materi als, and the aid of some workmen to put them up. It would arpear to have been the endeavour of these two gentlemen each to rid himself of the onus arising from the in security of the erections, and the fatal results consequent there upon, and (as between the two it rated) necessarily to cast it upon the other. As to what success attended either, we forbear of fering an opinion. We understand the matter will shortly become the subject of legal inquiry, either by indictment or action, and therefore it would be most improper in us to do so. The Jury paid the utmost attention throughout the laborious investigation, and, upon hearing an able and impartial summing up of the evidence by the Coroner, after sonic deliberation, returned a verdict of ' A ccidmtal Death--deodand upon the timber, IL' The de ceased was forty-two years of age, end has left a widow and two children to deplore his untimely end. The former arrived by the mail during the time the inquest was sitting, of course aware of the accident, but unecnacious of its fatal termination ; and we shall not attempt to describe her distress when acquainted with the loss of an affectionate husband. The poor woman, during her stay at Worcester, met with much kindness and commiseration from se veral indiv iduals, and she also received 101. from 111 r. Share towards reimbursing the expenses of the funeral, Ice. We are sorry to hear that the unfortunate man's circumstances were such that his widow and children are left in a state of almost utter destitution."

On Monday last this town was thrown into a state of great con sternation and horror, by an occurrence which has overwhelmed • most respectable family in extreme distress. About half-past two o'clock in the afternoon, Iligh.mreet became • scene of confusion and alarm, from a report t.4t the house of Richard Meade, Esq. the eminent solicitor, had just been the some of the most shocking events. It appears that Mr. Meade's servant man, who had lived with him fourteen years, and was about 36 , years of age, had suddenly destroyed himself by cutting his throat, alter having, in the mast barbarous manner, attempted the murder I of Frances Towning, a female in the same family, to whom he had paid his addresses four or fire Tears, and with whom he was shortly to hare been married, by besting her head most inhumanly with a hammer ! On the unfortunate girl screaming out for assist ance, Mrs. Warren, the mother of Mrs. Meade, ran to her as. sistance, upon which the wretch struck Mrs. Warren with the hammer so severely, that both her life, and that of the young woman to shone aid she had flown, are in a lamentably doubtful state. _ The further particulars are accurately detailed in the following report of the evidence on the Coroner's Inquest, which was held on the body of the suicide the next day. INQUEST ON THE BODY OF JOSEPH NORMAN. Yesterday, at half-past treelveo'clock, a Coroner's Inquest as sembled at the Dell Utt, in this town. The Jury were of the greatest respectability, and, after having been men, to view the body of ti.e deceased.

Mrs. Warren's screams continued outside the n t:M:4es door towards the front door t I went towards the front door, and met Mr. George supporting Mrs. War. vita in his anat. 111 a few moments I heard Mr. Meade all the by name, to tome to Magid I went to him : Mr. Meade said, "Fol low me."

The sphe vertebra. ft was evidently not the intuition of the deceased to assassinate Mrs. Werren, but that lady being the first who presented herself to the aid of the unfortunate iervant girl, Mrs. Warren became the object of his indiserltninatau violence. He was of a penurious and avaricious turn of mind, and had saved several hundred pounds in bervice, the greatee. port of which, we arc glad to find, will go to the first v ictim Af his fury, if she recovers—the poor girl to whom be was ahottly to be married, and in whose favour be some time sines made a will. It is with great satirfaction we close this melancholy account by stating. that favourable indiratieos have presented themselves, both as to Mrs. Warren and the maid-servant, but the situation of neither is by any means exempt from danger. The hammer used by the assassin waa of rather a linger aim than is commonly used foe household it was with the claw part of this instru ment that Mrs. Warren wait struck, and it was (Mind to be broken from the handle by the force with which it had been used on this eheatlng occasion.

Amidst ; n 1:1 1 : 111 =4 16 7 speculative opinions it is dillicult to arrive at any thing like certainty. There is, we believe, little doubt that the letters recently ad dressed te die Editors of the Morning Newspapers, in his name, and in that of his quondam solicitor's, were nothing better than that contemptible species of witticism, which the equally con temptible' writers would, perhaps, please to term a " hoax." We are, howevae, of opinion, from what has awe to our knowledge. that Probert is sa in London, MI, under his present embarrass- I meats, cannel well be prepared cithr to recommence business, to undertake • voyage /AMOR the Atlantic, or to institute an action against the Newspapers who have made his character the subject of remark. Enough, indeed, has been written and r.poken of the ilert,'ordshire tragedy-.toe of the ainsasatis Iscratea have made their thud exit frees the scene—the fate of another is by this time dreided—and, far the fourth, we question whether his lot be more enviable than that of his fellows. There is no --- eviite;e7 to support t the assertion of Mrs. Probate haring separated from her husband. Though, perhaps, the world may not acquit a man of guilt, yet the judgment of a woman who loves must be, and ever is, partial. During Mrs. Prebert's confinement at St. Alban's, she was often heard to say that else could not think Probert capable of imbruing his hands in the blood of his fellow-creature, and, under that im. presaion, whatever turn affairs might take eventually , she should still believe him innocen t of the murder. and nothing should induce her to forsake her duty to him as a wife. Since the trial we learn that an asyb , m bag bests offered her in the house of a distant rela tive, but which—resolved to ahare her husband's fate—she instantly declined—Eve/Hag raper.

The complaint was substantiated by the wife, a IPOIIIII/3 of gig at _ tic dimensions; she stated that she and D ar b y had been Itifult, married by the Parish Priest of Bantry, in the mete ('arL ; that immediately after the joytitl ceremony, Darby deserted bet; and that on her following him here, lie is not content with (hur t . ing her, but he mielests - her whenever they m ee t.

Here the learned advocate was interrupted by the wife excites,- ing—" Plase your Worship ? I'll be on my atlidavy, I never hid a call to man but yon." Thu requiring a little explanation, sh e said she meant the expression fur her husband, but she would net condescend to look at him. It appeared that Darby had no means of even supposing himself.
