Mt. Oftwge Wheeler, • uneven of Bayswater, was then ex =Me d, why stated that 1w attended the defendant about ten days befbre the 22d of June, whh was very ill of en inflammation of the Eings, sad a spasmodic asthma. She was at that time uncles the istlaewee of mercury by Ms advice. It was a very usual treatment heroompluant. He had known her for tight or nMe months, and she had never, during that period, required mercury for any , rstbar eantplaint. He saw the servant two or three weeks after she lied lee her situation, and in the course of conversation she told t'm that Mrs. BeU pushed her. On his observing that Mrs. Bell rood but a "poor c ha nce with her, she replied, •• Oh, she never Struck me; it she had. I would have hit her admin." lice words w ere to that direr. Mrs. Bell was in so weak a state that it was hrpossible she could have stet down a. child. Mrs. 111:1 showed him the nightcap which was found In the p..t, in the girl's pre sence, who on being spoken to, said the wanted to boil a little rice for herself. The Ca, ' that this the lAtttMAx said, Case depended entirely upon degree of credit tine to the testimony of the prosecutrix, whose evi dence bad certainly been contradicted very materially by that of the gentleman who was called by the defendant. As to the motive ea_ si3ned by the girl for her mistress's ill-treating her, he could not conceive how it was jaossible any person, be she a kept mistress or not, could feel en interest in persuading a girl of that description to become's - prostitute. He could not comprehend what motive there Auld be for such advice. It appeared to him quite improbable, and ifthe Jur" believed the statement of Mr. Wheeler, they moat reject that of the prosecutrix, ;cod acquit the defendant. The Jofy Without hesitation acquitted the defendant. Joshan Rtebuork was charged with having assaulted Mr. Ink. don on the ird of June last. C. PIII [Alps said, that the present case would not occupy ten minutes of the time of the Court, for he had been instructed to say, that if the defendant would plead guilty, and make en apology, Maenad - .redid be perfectly satisfied. Mr. Andersen, said he was quite willing to consent to a Juror being withdrawn, but his client certainly would not apologise be. cause he was fully prepared to meet the case on the opposite side. Mt. Putts fns—Then, Gentlemen, I must trouble you with the details, which are very short. The prosecutor is the eon of the rentlenian of that name with whom we were all very familiar, end, like his father, was es respectable as his name was celebrated. This prod. Min on the night in questionwu returning hem Bolket's Wells, in company with two friends, wnen they overtodutbe de. , fendant and three or four other persons ; the name of Ewboak was eery distinbfly n.entioned. As my client knew a gentleman of that mune. he turned round, and addrascd himself to the individual ; but he disccirered his mistake, and was walking away. The de fendant, however, took umbrage at Mr. Incledon's mistake, and be ran to abuse 'him, and ultimately committed the assault for which he is now indicted. There would be no difficulty in proving the assault, betause the defendant himself acknowledged It to the offi cer at the police office, on the following day. ' Mr.•lnciesion was then examined, and stated that as beaus-re turning WM Sadler's Wells on the night in question, he heard the flame of Eirhank mentioned. Having a, fiend of that name, be turned round, and said he should be glad to speak to Mr. Ewbaok ; upon which the defendant said his name was Ewbank. Witness, perceiving his mistake, told him he was not the person he meant, elald walked on. The defendant and his companions then followed him and his friends, and abused. them, calling them puppies, bar bers' clerk,, &c. Witness told the defendant to go home. The defendant then tame up, and offered him a card, and said he would have witness's, who replied that he would give his card to no person unless he were • gentlemen. The defendant then struck witness, e-on which the latter gave hint into the charge of the watchman. The defendant was ray much Intoxicated. • CrMe.examined—Witness holds a situation as clerk in the house dl' blesses —:—...—..—., soap-boilers. There were four persons with the defendant. llgritness meant to say, on his oath, that the de fendant was drunk. He was net so himself, for he had not drank toy thing that day. Mr. NV ethetby was with witness, who the next ny advised him to write a letter to the defendant, thinking that he might then be sober anti sorry for his conduct, and ready to make an apology for it, which would have obviated the present prosecu tion, but on attention was paid to that letter. Mr. Forthingham examined—He was with Mr. Incledon on the night in question.' The defendant struck that gentleman, but Mr. Indetion t,id not strike the defendant. . . . . . . Joseph Piper, the watchman, stated, that he heard the difference between the prosecutor and the defendant, but declined to interfere until he saw the defendant strike Mr. Incledon, and then he took bins into custody. The 'defendant asked the witness at the police elm the fallowing trimming, whether he struck Mr. Incledon—to whit* be replied, " Yes, you did, Sir." Defendant then said, " Did i give him a runt un ?" Yes, you did, Sir, said the witness. (Laughter.) Cross-examined—Witness never said that there was no blow alma at all. Ile could not Icy so, for he saw the blow struck be.. fore he took the defendant intu custody. Mr. ADOLPIIinI observed, that he was sorry to be obliged to occupy the direct( the /'ours at so late an hour, but it was not his fault. His client would not make an apology, because there was no truth in the whole ease of the prosecutor from the beginning to the cod ; and this he should prove by the testimony of four respectable witnesses.. The Learned Counsel then stated the facts, which' were afterwards deposed to by the following evidence a— Mr. Thomas Smith, an ironmonger, in the 31inories, stated that On the ?2d June he had been pJesing the evening at Mr. Ewbank's with Mr. Cleinent and Mr. Brown, two respectable tradesmen. IThey left about half-past ten, and Mr. Ewbank accompanied them pun of the way home. Mr. I;whank was perfectly sober; when he was about to return home, witness said "good night, Ew. bank t" upon whit!, two persons came up (Mr. Ineledon and Mr. Forthingliam) and the former " Ewbank, Ewbank I" with • laugh of indifference, and the: - . said, " I wish to see him." Mr. .LwbAnk said, "lam he ;de you wish to see me "Oh !" said le.cledon, " you are a Cumberland man the person I want is a Y erkshireman." Mr. Ewbank, in a good -humoured manner, said, •• well, but I am a Yorksbireman ton;" to which laeledon re- Mined, " the person I mean is a gentleman, you smell of beer, and you are no man." Mr. Ewbank then turned away, but on hearing one of the two can him a rascal, and a scoundrel, be turned round and said, " If cu are a gentleman there is my Lard, and I *MI have your's." Tneledon then flourished &stick over his head ; upon which the defendant put up his hand to ward off the blow, and Ineleden's bat Immediately tell off and he then gave Mr. Ewbank into the custody of the watchman. Witness would most positively swear that the defendant dui not strike Incledon. Crose.examined.—He husk tea that afternoon at Mr. Ewbank's, and afterwards drank part of a bottle of Aladeira wine there. Four of them drank of it ; tney had but one bottle among them, and were about three hours dric sing it. No other sort of liquor was introduce-I. Mr. Charles Pomfret Brrwn CIVIC similar testimony to the last witness. _ . Mr. Clement also deposed to the same effect; but this witness, in Ins crosa-examirittlen, said he drank brandy and water at Mr. Hobart's, andllim Mr. Smith was present at the time. Air. Stevens stated that he attended at the police office the next Morning to bail Mr. Ewbank, and while there he aikftd the watch man Piper whether he saw any blow struck? and the watchman said, no, there was no blow s ruck. This witness then pointed to the constable of the night, who was in Count, and said," That man !feted ma ask the question." Wires, the constable. swore that lie did not. Mr. Smith and Mr. Brown then volunteered their evidence upon ti.is point, and both of them swore tha: they heard Mr. Stevens ask the watchmen the question, and heard him say there was no blow. The watchman was examined upon this point, who positively dealt,: it. hi r. 1.. PHILtIPS replied upon the whole case, and said he did rot mean to impeach the characters of the gentlemen who had come forward on behalf of the detentiaiit. No doubt they all felt per. ai.aded that what they had stated was the real truth, but this only' convinced him more than ever that the hospitality of their friend sir. Ewbank was much greater than what they had represented it to be, and that in truth they had taken a little drop too much of his good Madeira, so that mane of them saw too much and others too little; foe they all saw Mr. Incledon put bis list in the face of the defendant, but they sane of them saw the defendant strike Mr. Ineletion. The assault was not of that aggravated description as to leave marks upon the person assaulted, but the injury consisted in the insult offered to the feelings, which wee much less endurable than mere bodily blows. • Tne CHAIRMAN Bret complained, that, Instead of this cause lar..ag only ten minutes, as it was promised, it had occupied nearly two hours. Had he been aware of it. he certainly should not have heard it at so late an hour. With regard to the case itmlf, he mould not make a single observation upon it. There appeared on bith sides a degree of seal, which, (tout his own observation and experience, always inclined persons to suppose their ease to be right, and the one they uppo%ed wrong. The Jury were the hest Judges in such a ease, and he therefore would leave it for them to decide whose testimony was the better entitled to credit of the two. The Jury, without a moment's deliberation, found the defendant The CHAIRMAN immediately sentenced him to pay a fine of 101. to we King. ::i~ E.VSUING OLP DAti.pr SESSIONS.

POLICE. 111AITIII0X-1101.78r, SEPT. 13.—A man trained Jrfekerann watt ' 'brought before the Loan al AY4)R, charged with having committed a furious and cowardly assault upon a sugar-bilker, named Ozer bah. The complainant and several of his companions, it appeared, liaa been drinking a few evening' ago at a publie . house in ]l u te's. place, where the prisoner and a number of his friends were also . regaling themselves, but in a distinct party, With whom the coin. pi:anent had nothing to do and held no communication. The corm pis Mint went out to go home soon afterwards, but upon turning round a corner lie was suddenly beet by five men, of whom the prisoner was one, who all set upon hint at once, knocked him down, and beat him dreadfully. They kicked and flung stones at him, and they had it was clear laid in ambush for him, and ga thered brick-bats and stones to fling at him. His head was se verely cut, and but for the assistance of his companion, whom they also best dreadfully, he must have been murdered. The Loan MAYOR asked the complainant what could possibly have been the cause of this desperate assault ? The complainant said, he was conscious of no °Fierce except that of not having been born in the place where the defendant and his compassion were born. 111r..Hablet, who, from the description given of the row, as well as the savage half-starved appearance of the defendant, concluded that this desperate assault was committed by a native of the sister country, was a good deal surprised to hear the Beadle of the Ward , declare that there was not ad Irishman belonging to either party, and that they were all Germans. "Germans!" said the Chief ' Clerk, "I am borprised 1 Why, I always understood that. the Germans were a very peaceably disposed set of men, and that when they do fight it is only upon stronger provocation than la other people usuall take, and that they " never bad recourse to such disgraceful mode y of warfare as this. The complainant—" Sonic of as are Upper, .and others of us are Lower Germans ; that's all the ground of dispute." The Beadle stated. that a number of Germans had settled about Duke's-place, and that lights took place between them almost every night. The prisoner and his party, who are sugar-baktrs, came from the Black Forest, in the dominions of the King of Wirternbing, and the otherl„who came from Hanover, considered themselves the King of England's natural-born tabjects, and the next thing to Englishmen, sidle they ridiculed those of the 111.ack Forest, as a mere contemptible set of foreigners, who wets, only permitted to live here as a matter of indulgence. Besides - those extraordinary grounds of mortal animosity, the Hanoverkammilest of trades different from those pursued by the Black Forestees. - 1 • The Lotto Afar ort said, that this inhuman system must berit an end to. He then ordered the defendant to find bail to answer for the outrage at the Sessions, and batted a warrant fur the appre hension of the ringleader of the assailaets. AN EXTRAORDINARY CASE. Our SEPT. 13.—A gentleman of very reaprelable ap pearanee, who described himself as Mr. Jokn Fenton Goddor, clerk with Messrs. Holmes, Frampton, and Loftus, of New Inn..Solich. tors, appeared on summone before the sitting Magistrate, Mr.... 41, derman Thorp, on a charge of assaulting a young matt of app.. rent] y equal respectability, who gave his name Daniel Smith, warehouseman with Messrs. Urling, British lace manufacturers,, Strand. • , The complainant stated, that on Thursday evening last he had been to wait on a lady at Walker's.llotel, New Bridge-street, and was returning up Fleet-street, when in passing two gentlemen, one of whom was the defendant, his (Mr. S.'s) hand brushed slightly against Mr. Godden's arm, on which the lattet immedistelt turned round and accused him Its the foulest language of having attempted to pick his pocket. He made no other reply to this accusation than by assoriug him that he was quite mistaken in his character, and begging his pardon for having brushed against him, was crossing the way to avoid further altercation, when the defendant (who is a very powerful man in comparison with 111 r. Smith) instantly col lared him, and shook him with such excessive violence as nearly to prevent his breathing. He begged him not to be so outrageous, that he was as respectable as himself, and could give satisfactory reference who he was. Mr. Gotiden, however, continued his vie,- knee, and dragged bins (Mr. S.) into a baker's shop in Fleet. street, which happened to be open. Here he stated to Mr. Godden that he resided at Messrs. Utling's, and said he would give him his card. At this proposition 141 r. Godden wu somewhat mote cool, but as he (Mr. Smith), on searching, happened to have no card about him, Mr. Golden renewed his accusations, and although he desired him to walk home with him to the Strand, he again seized him, and redoubled his violence. Just at this moment a watchman, attracted by the crowd, came up, and having heard Mr. Godden's charge, told him he was not justified in behaving with that violence, but should take hint (Mr. S.) to the watchhouse ; and accordingly they all went to St. Dunstan's watchhouse toge ther. Before the constable of the night Mr. Godden charged him with riding his }pocket, but it appearing by his own account that there was nothing in his pocket, and as he (31r. 8.) stated who and what he was, and the defendant conducted himself with consider able violence, threatening at one time to knock his teeth down his throat, the constable, at the suggestion of March, the ward beadle, told Mr. Godden that if he persisted in his charge he should send then: both to the Compter together, and to avoid this disagreeable alternative, Mr. sodden relinquished his charge, and he (Mr. S.) was permitted to go at liberty. This was the nature of the assault with which he now charged him. Woods, the watchman alluded to, corroborated 111 r. Smith's statement, and spoke as to the violence with which Mr. Godden shook him and drged him along. March, the bea dle, and Mr. Thomas, the constable of the night, confirmed Mr. Smith's account as to what had passed in the watch. house, as well as to the abusive and violent conduct of Mr. God. den while there. They both accompanied Mr. Smith home, and found that he was the person that he described himself to be. The two gentlemen at the tune were equally respectable ih appearance. Mr. Godden, without attempting to deny or apologize fullthe violent conduct with which be was charged, renewed his accusation ~gainst Mr. Smith. He was, he said, passing up Fleet -street, arm. in-arm with a friend, when be felt something at his pocket, and on putting his hand to it, instantly found the complaicaner hand actually in his pocket. He recollected, however, that there was nothing in his pocket, his handkerchief being in the crown of his hat ; nevertheless, he was desirous of giving bin into custody, and seized blot accordingly; but as the watch was not then set, no officer was to be round, and to secure him.: he pushed hint into the first shop that was open. He was not, he said, bound to judge. by appearances, the thieves it was notorious were frequently well drtaised and the fact of the prisoner's not being able to give his card of address, confirmed him in hit opinion that he was not mistaken in the character of the man. At the watchhouse he protecd the constable to take the charge, 'but as he refused so to do, without at the same time detaieg him, he pre. ferret, as he had lost nothing, relinquishing the charge to being locked up all night. Kith regard to the charge itself, he still per. sisted that he found Mr. Smith's hand in his pocket. If, however, Mr. Smith chose to drop all proceedings with regard to the assault, he was content to say nothing more on that subject. ()n the con. trary, if Mr. Smith meant to persist in his presentcharge, he should certainly apply for a warrant, and have him taken up for attempting to pick his pocket. Mr. Alderman Those said he should consider that it would be quite impossible for Mr. Smith to relinquish his charge for the assault upop such a proposition, which would, in fact, be little leas than an acknowledgment of the truth of the accusation against him. Mr. Smith said, no, certainly t be should persist in his charge; and if Mr. Godden thought proper to proceed as be threatened, he should rely with confidence upon his general character to bring him triumphantly through any such accusation. Mr. Alderman l'no e said, in that case he must call upon Mr. Godden to find bail. M. Gadder said, that he could speedily do y and he a) cold cer., tairly proceed as he had stated al; beet limit:. Mr. Hwnsford (the clerk) askew did Mr. Golden mean to say thee he actually felt Mr. Smith's hard in his pocket? Mr. Golden-1 es, I certainly found it th my rocket. Uere this strange affair rested; and Mr. Haddon subsequently found bail tor his sßitesrauce . to anatzer the charge of assault. .111 E JEALOUS WIFB. Coin QUEEX-SCICANT.. SEPT. 13.—A nrepossrfsing young woman. , from the Emerald isle, named Prudence Shy, t, the wife of Geo►gge• Short, a manufacturer of rope-yen, was brought before P. W. Gregorie, Esq. the Magistrxe, caarged b}• her husband with con tinually beating him f demolishins the windows, crockery-ware, and, ntber utensils. The husband, who has a woodemleg, in givlrg his evidence, took hls station at a distance from his better-half. and was supported by his employer, who came forward to speak to the ►ncainers of Mrs. Prudence Short, whose eyes threatened vengeance tiu her accuser, who evidently anticipated a sound drubbing by the tremulous manner In which he brought forward his grievances. From his statement, if appeared, that he had been martini to Mrs. Short for 'about three years; before the ceremony, she miscued as gentle as a lamb, but after the marriage rites hail been performed, :she 'Willy showed thin all that meekness was only assumed, as she tient d irago, and made it it rule to at.minikter bn him sometimes twice a day, and all fornothing.

From her conduct his home was disagreeable to him, and he was obliged to sit ins public. house till nod-dine, to avoid' the 'enemies of his wife. On Monde, evening, alter his tabours were over, he went Into the Plough public.heuse to take a . pisituf porter, when Alra,Short entered the room in which be was sitting, and with her list gave him such a heavy blow In the mouth, that she loosened several of his teeth. Ho took no notice of the blot, and smiled at her, when she re. petted the knock, and was about adopting otbervictlence, when she was removed by several persons out of the house. aftm which she went home, and broke nearly every thing in the room. The luck less Mr. ;quirt concluded his statement by declaring that lie could no longerlead such a life of Inhery, and that tinless some method was token to keep his wife froid coming to the factory where be worked, his master would no longer employ him. The complaiment's toaster declared, mat in all his life he never met with sut.it).a, desperate woman as Mrs. Short. Her language was disgusting 4n the extreme, and, unless she kept away from the factory, he must be under he necessity of discharging her husband, who ties a quiet industrious man. Mrs. Short, In aeswer to the charge, burst Into a flood of tears; and said that she ought to be the complainant instead of her hue band ; and, as an Instance, exposed her arms, which were black and blue. She said that he bad taken her away from her friends in Ireland, and brought her to this country, where she had not a friend in the world, and th ere f ore h ope d t h e Magistrate would afford her pre& aims.' All that had been said about her was false. She was always In good humour, and would never quarrel with her husband if he would give her her own way. The complainant said be had given her her own way too long, Ind would do it no longer, and hoped the Magistrate would re strain her from annoying and beating him. The Magistrate said, all hecould do would be to order her to find security to keep the peace towards him, which he accordingly did, and 3lra. Short, not being provided with bail, was locked up. This morning a young man, named Wi ll iam Talton, alias rusks',. atiainst whom a Coroner's Jury returned a verdict of wit. ful murder, for having killed amen named John Guy, a carter, in a pugilistic rencontre in Jews.row, Chelsea, about am weeks since, was put to the bar before Messrs. GREGORIE and illsauLattri, the Magistrates, upon the Corouer's warrant. The prisoner is a brichmaker, about twenty years of age, and has been living since the commission of the alleged crime in Castle lane, Chelsea, and from the circumstance of the whole of the police bring on the look out for him, together with the remorse he felt at being accused of the murder, he snrrendered hims:ll this morning to Polak and Handley, the officers, for the purpose of taking his trial at the ensuing Sessions at the Old Dailey. He was accordingly committed. FRIENDLY SOCIETIES. MAITYLEDOWE. SEPT. 13.—A most wretched-looking old man, who had lost one arm, and was shivering from head to foot under the effects of a paralytic stroke, applied as the nominee of a mein.. bee or Friendly society, for an order for the payment of a sum of money, which is, according to the rules of the Society, payable on the death of a member. The deceased member was a Julia Reade, I who had lived with the applicant as his wife, and she, for war.t of nearer conextion, had appointed him t' receive the mortuary fee. To resist the payment of this sum, a Mr. Matthews appeared, as desk. to this Society, which is kept at the Queen's Head, Paradise. strqet. Now, Mr. Matthews, who was the very reverse of the poor aPPlicant, in personal appearance, being, in point of fact, a short, sleek, plump-looking gentleman, h undertaker, and also clerk to the Society. His objections to the claim of the poor man, not. withstanding the earnestness with which he enforced them, were all overruled by the Magistrate, Mr. Griffith, who was about to write an order for the payment of the money, when he was stopped by Mr. Matthews, who said that he should not pay the money, but appeal to the Sessions. Mr. Gnryrotn—The Sessions have no mom Jurisdiction than 1 hare. Mr. Matthews—Well, we are not enrolled, and nobody can corn. pel us to pay anything: Mr. GRIFFITH—IS it really a fact that you are not enrolled P Mr. Mathews—lt is. Mr. Guriririt—lt is a most shameful thing to get the poor 'people's money and then treat them in this manner. Mr. Mathews, having gathered together his bundle of documents, teas about leaving the office, when the Magistrate again remon strated with him on the folly of appealing to the Sessions, and the injustice of depriving this poor man of his money, but he turned a deaf ear. Mr. lintrrint —Well, you are the most wrong-headed man 1 aver inew. The Commis.loners of the Insolvent Debters' Court have frc Y n V l E c il i f r U t d a L7 l : , appointed Monday next, and the nine following days, for Short, a manufacturer their sittings after the annual vacation.

A person apparently of robust habit, but evidently suffering from recent illness, applied yesterday to the sitting magistrate, It. Twy. ford, Esq. at Worship-street, under the following circumstances: On Monday afternoon he had dined at an eating-house. The din ner consisted of a beefsteak, with some pickled onions and cucum. bent. He afterwards went home. About eleven o'clock at night he was seized with the most excruciating pains. A surgeon being sent for, an inquiry was instituted as to that the patient had taken that day, and the pickles being mentioned, the surgeon, coupling the circumstance with the symptoms of his patient's disorder, concluded that the pickles were strongly impregnated with some preparation of copper, which opinion was afterwards confirmed by examining the contents of the stomach. Half an hour later, the consequences must hare been fatal. His object was to guard the public against I such it dreadful risk, by making this public statement. Mr. Twyford observed that he had no control over the press; and that if the applicant's object was to give publicity to the state r went, he should at once apply to the press. The applicant then retired. F• TA L Acet DEN T.—We briefly noticed in out last rum ber, the distressing event which happened on Monday, the 'nth of August, when, by the upsetting of a small boat off Shanklin, in the Isle of Wight, a young gentleman and his two sisters met with a watery grave; the seaman, an individual of the name of Prowten, alone escaping to tell the tale. It appears that the three unfortunate young per sons were the children of Samuel Headen, Esq. a London merchant, and had been for some time lodging in a cottage near Shanklin Chine. The boat upset on an attempt to r turn, when about three miles from the shore ; the water wan succeeded in gaining possession of the wreck, while bottom upwards. and after drifting some considerable dis tenet undressed himself, and swam for his life, which was shyer; by his being discovered and picked up, much ex haused, near Bonchurch. It does not appear, even by his owh relation, that he made the least , exertion to save the unfortunate young persons who were perishing around 111P11. The bialies bf the deceased hive not yet been dis covered, which deprives the distracted parents of the only melancholy consolation left. Boats have been daily em ployed in the search, but as yet without success.—South ampton Herald. _ _ AT:ARMING Ftas.—A serious fire, threatening the most destructive consequences, and attended with the loss of life, broke out yesterday morning in the premises of Mr. Bell, an oilman, residing in Shoreditch. About a quarter past twelve the watchman, on going his usual round, ob- Served some smoke issuing from the lower part of the house, and immediately gave the alarm. For some time his effbrts, as he supposed, to awaken the inhabitants were in- effectual. The house was completely in flames before any 1 1 tidings could be gained of the fate of the inmates. Happily, however, only one person has fallen a victim to the devour ing element, and that is Mr. Bell himself. It seems that the female part of the family, upon hearing the alarm, , effeCted their escap , - through the back of the premises, whilst Mr. Bell, mt. :,d^rl by his man, endeavoured to force a passage through the lower part of it. On proceed ing down the stairs, howevP-, the smoke became so dense, that they were nearly suffoesteri. Tite man endeavoured I to persuade his master to absnelon his iment ion of reaching the street by the front door, and they were in the act of re tuning when the staircase gave way, and precipitated the master into the destructive eletrifitt. Mrs. Bell cut herself most dreadfully by falling on the skylight, and the ssomah - servant is most shockingly bruised. Mr. Bell's house is rendered a complete skeletqn, and scarcely a vestige of the property it contained saved. The house of Mr. Jacobs, and that of Mr. Recce, which adjoin that of Mr. Bell, r bate sustained considerable damage, and property to a 'ay large amount has been in the latter destroyed. Mrs. Jacobs, whose aceouchement Is expected every hour, re mains in a very dangerous nate, in consequence of the fright she has undergone. • The pickpockets were, as usual, on the alert, and several offenders are new in custody, who were taken before the Magistrates. ti a -1. afa'a - - • WittOk• f. lit—About eight etlock WS Morning es paid his two-peeve to walk along the paved algae the pier, promenaded the pier as if foul* however, _ _ d e eo wal ked ue t b ac i n k himselfwg ...---- attention, but at last, he took the advantage of the near a rdsall din forwar d s a way f ro s atit°rnaget tight. Sep l mastery absence of all persons from the pier heed, mounted the' taking, and thence plunged into the Rea. The pier-mutes instantly =scout ropes and grappling irons • but they availed nothint e tt i : were made to get out boats, but they failed, the sea airy tough. About halt a dozen strong and astonishingly Mew taxon. fishermen 'then provided themselves with long ropes; W fasten to belts strapped round the middle; these ropes were fas tened to the strong railings formed along the made-beach leading to the plealead, and each rope had several men to gaud it and pull back the rhea who might bo washed off too far by the dashing of the waves and the Mrce of the breakers. titre they waited for events, but yearly ten o'clock had arrived before any signal was given that the body had been seen. Cy this time thousands of spectators thronged the beach, the pier -walk, the jetty, and every station commanding a view of the sea where the men were lashed to the ropes, A shout was given that the body was visible; and such was the fact ; about every . eighth or ninth wave the head, the clothes, or the body, was visible for a painful moment by the thou. sands of anxious spectators. The men rushed forward through the surging of the sea as soon as they caught any glimpse of the body ; but long before any of them could get near it, the breakers knocked them back and rendered them powerless, while the retiring waves were seen bearing the body back several hundred feet. This state of things continued for more than an hour, the body at every eighth or ninth wave appearing at a great distance from the men, bat lost to their view and their grasp, as BOOR as they got any where near it. At last the body got into such a station that it was beaten in and out in nearly the same line t the men observed this regular recurrence, and then every time they rushed out, on returning they made towards each other u well as they could, and closed as much as possible, so that if they were lucky enough to get before the body, in retiring it might come against their persons, end thus enable them to clutch it. Eventually this plan succeeded ; three of them were seen to stoop under the waves, as if clasping something ; and the waves, which had increased in fury, having again broke over them on retiring, enabled them to walk towards the beach, and it soon became visible that they had got the body. Vray was promptly made by other men, and the body was got on shore, greatly bruised and cut, particularly about the shoulders. The - face was also greatly disfigured and lacerated, but not so much is might hare been expected, considering the rough agitations to which the head must have been subjeeted. The clothes were torn into strips, par ticularly the smallclothes ; they altogether, with the mutilations of the body, presented a most tattered and appalling appearanoe. Soon after the suicide had jumped from the pier-head, Inquiries were naturally enough made as to who he could be. It was not !wig before it was ascertained that Joseph Idle, the landlord of the White Horse in the rear of the White Horse Inn, kept by Mr. Allen, near the Post-office, and leading to the East Cliff, had dis appeared from his home somewhere about seven or eight o'clock this morning, under at least suspicious circumstances. IVithoured verting to wbat rumour says (perhaps erroneously) as to wranglings aehome, for, true or not, the poor wife, whose confinement has ' been daily expected, at all events, must now be in affliction enough, it appears that some threatening statements were made ; that the roan took bls watch and money out of his pockets and put them into the cupboard, and that he then quitted the house, proceeding di rect, as it has transpired, to the pier-head and plunging from the railing there, as poen as the absence of observation presented the opportunity. It is also stated (likewise perhaps erroneously), that the landlord Idle was in very embarrassed circumstances. lie was at _young man, and, besides his wife, has left two children. Her aMictiou is stated to be great. The body was taken to one of the out-houses of the public-house, where medical men immediately visited it. It remains there to await the Coroner's Inquest, which cannot be till to-morrow, as the Coroner (Mr. Owynne) resides at E Lewes. nstOUTOI, .5 vilyickta . l, who SINGUL.4R CASE. [From the Exeter Gcmette.ll On Tuesday, an Inquest was held at the Lower Lock public house, near Topsham, before C. I). Pugh, Esq. on the body of Sarah Tibbs, who drowned herself the preceding day in the canal, near that place. Jane Lewis stated, that on Monday the deceased came to her holtse, and asked for Mr. George Lake, tailor, of Rueter; wit ness said he was in the cellar (an underground tap-room); de ceased was shown into a room, and desired witness to tell Mr. Lake she was there ; he accordingly joined her, and they . dined together. He staid but a short time with her, and then rejoined his company in the cellar. Witness saw nothing more of the de. ceased, but heard a acteeching, upon which she went out and found it was Lake calling for help. Elizabeth Lewis, niece of the last tvitnes3, stated that the de ceased came to the house about 12 o'clock on Monday ; Mr. Lake and deceased had dinner together, and soon after he returned to the cellar where he had been drinking before; deceased then gave witness a note to deliver to Lake, and hurried out of the house. When witness delivered Lake the note he ran up stairs, and fol lowed deceased along the bank of the canal; he called to her, and she returned to him, and they stood close together. Witness turned her back, and immediately heard • Lake cry out for help, saying there was a woman in the water; the deceased when taken out was quite dead. A basket, which she had carried in her hand, was found on the bank. Nicholas Lewis, landlord of the public-house, corroborated as much of this testimony as related to Lake and the deceased dining together, and his afterwards hearing the alarm. Elizabeth Howe (mother-in-law of deceased) deposed, that the deceased came to her house about three weeks since, and showed marks about her body, which she said was caused by Lake's horse. whipping her. T. Brown, mariner, stated that he was on board a vessel in the canal, and saw the deceased run towards Exeter on the towing. Path, and five minutes afterwards . heard a cry of a woman being m the water. Mr. Lake was then called into the room, and the Coroner, after having caused the evidence to be read to him, observed that the facts of his having followed the deceased on the bank of the canal, tailing her back, and standing close to her, talking, had been sworn to ; and the Jury.were now ready to hear any obsce?ations he may hare to make. Mr. Lake said, that he certainly called her back, but was not within tire times the length of the Jury rooter of her; be asked her to take home a note to his son. She said, in rather a low tone of voice, " Shall I take a note to ‘Villiarn ?" and immediately as he turned round he heard a plunge in the water, and cried for help. He added, " The world must know that I bad too much regard for that woman to push her in • the water." On being reminded of that part of the evidence which stated that he had beaten her, he denied it, but afterwards acknowledged, that on her coming out to I him naked, in a very drunken state, he had beaten her with a small whip. A Juror asked him why be did:not assist in pulling her out of the water, which he might have done by stretching out his hand. He replied, that she was out of his reach, and he could not swim. The Jury here went to view the spot where she threw herelf in, and the witness Elizabeth Lewis being directed to describe how near Lake and the deceased stood together, said it was no further than from where she was standing and the Coroner (not a yard) r upon which one of the Jury remarked that two persons standing at some distance front each other, would, when viewed in line by an. other person, appear to be close together. The Coroner accordingly directed the witness to place herself at the same spot, in the house, whence she saw Lake and the deceased conversing together ; and in the mean while he stationed two of the Jury many yards asun der, and the girl being directed to say how near shesupposed the two men were to each other, gave it as UT opinion diat ti•ey were clime together. The Jury liming returned, Mr. Lake said he had evidence to prove that the deceased had threatened to destroy herself forty times within the last twelve months; that she was very much addicted to drunkenness, and had sworn a heavy oath that shavould either cut her throat or drown herself if she got drunk again s he was also able to prove that she bad drank three pints of beer and (me of cider, previous to meeting him on Monday, and was drunk. George Warren, a lightens= of Eaminster, was then called who stated that he heard a cry on Monday, and saw some one in the water, and thought it was a m a n. Saw a man on the bank, whom h?pposes to have been Lake, and said to him, " D— n your ey , why don't you help the man out ?" Th e man was crying oud, "Lord bare mer r y upon me! Christ have mercy upon me 1 ." The body was then within four feet of the bank, and a man might have pulled bee out by going in as deep as his knees. Lake appeared in great distress, and wanted the Good-gates to be opened to let the water out, but witness said that would take too long. Witness got a boat-book and pulled her out, but she was then dead. Lake offered 20 guineas or any money If any one would pull her out. Mr. Lake—l offered GOO guineas. A witness here deposed to having heard deceased say, on Sunday last, that she would destroy herself, or turn out on the town, if Lake left the countrv. Deceased was much given to drinking, and would tellen get drunk five or six times a week. It was stated that on one occasion, when deceased attempted to throw _herself Into a deep well, but hung by the edge, Lake said, " Why did you not tread on her hand s , a nd ma k e h er l et go ? • To this charge Mr. Lake replied, that in consequence of her attempting to throw herself into the well he had employed a man to draw water fur her whenever she required it, or to nail up the well; and called a witness, who corroborated his statement. The Coroner oi,served that it was evident, from the experiment he had made, that the witness (Elisabeth Lewis) must have been mistaken as to Lake and the deceased having stood close together. There was no mark of violence on her person ; and his own opinion was, that conceiving Lake had behaved coolly to her, by staying only ten minute/. at dinner, and joining another company, it hail induced temporary derangement, under the influence of which she had thrown herself into the:water, and that Like was not savagery to the act. Tlie.iury accordingly returned their verdict, that the deceased destroyed herself in eat ate of temporary insanity. • This note, as we are informed, was couched in the following terms The last time we were here yru treated nw as a woman, but now you treat me like a —."

A hurricane more dread . . ful than any mentioned in the annals of this island, has, in a ft, hours, changed Basseterre Into a heap of ruins. On the 2fitli of this month, about nine o'clock in the morning, the most sini a t ee warnings announced the approach of the desolating misfortune.

" The country has equally suffered ; the houses, works, th e trees--all are destroyed. Our unfortunate town and its vicinity (a few days ago so flourishing) presents now only a vast ruin. A mul. titude of people have been crushed by the falling of the houses, or carried away by the river. We are now about clearing away the rubbish, from which one hundred and fifty dead bodies have already been taken nut, and among them some of the most notable peopl: of the island. In Basseterre more than 500 houses have been UV. roofed or entirely destroyed, and those remaining have suffered more or less.

There has been very severe weather between the 26th and 27th ult., but we have not suffered much here. A few vessels were driven on shore, and the wharfs sustained a go od d ea l o f i njury, but that was all. At St. Croix they have not been so fortunate, all the estates there more or less have been injured. The damage to property in general is estimated to be very great, and the shippin g suffered much. Several vessels with sugar on board have been lost It is believed that the loss the planters have experienced will retaal the present, and probably the ensuing crop. The hurricane was felt .in its greatest fury at Basseterre, Guadeloupe, and was at. tended there by an earthquake. It is reported that most part of the buildings on the seashore have been destroyed ; that all the res, eels are lost there,' and that between four and live hundred persons .have perished. From Porto Rico we learn that the whole of the island has suffered incalculable injury. The tine crop of coffee has disappeared, and all the vessels round the island arc either lost of on shore; amongst the former are three or four German vessels, some with and sonic without cargoes. Au immense number of houses have been destroyed. The Sir William Congreve, with a full cargo for London, was totally lost at Porto Rico, during the late gale. ST. Ckorx, JuLT 29.

TITAMES YACHT CLUB PRIZE. THIRD AND FINAL CONTEST. Yesterday was the day appointed for the thitd, and, as it proved, the final contest, for the superb silver cup and cover, given by the gentlemen composing the Yacht Club. Our readers are already aware that on the first occasion the boats could not reach their distance, in consequence of the want of wind. On the second occasion a dispute arose as to whether the Lady Louisa, the Spitfire, or the Sylph were entitled to the prize. The result was,, that after much dtscussion, it was resolved that the wager should be sailed over again. Pursuant to this mandate, the boats yesterday took their stations, to sail from Illackfriars-bridge to the Powder-house, NVandsworth, and back again to Cumberland-gardens. At two o'clock the signal gun fired, and the boats got under weigh. The Venus had the lead, told, with the wind abaft, kept itin fine style up to IVaterloo-bridge. The Venus, Spitfire, For. titude, Lady Louisa, and Sylph were now the headmost boas, the Venus still keeping her way. At Hungerford the Fortitude, Spit, tire, and Royal Eagle were abreast of each other, but the Venus , got through IVestannster-bridge first. Here again the boats changed situations, the Royal Eagle gained on the Venus, and the For. rude and Sylph closely pressed them ; but the Spitfire still remained the fourth beat. The same course was kept by the boats until they reached the Red House at Battersea, when the Venus still kteping the lead, ran away. The Spitfire, Royal Eagle, and Fortitude were now abreast. The boats kept their respective stations, until rounding the boat, when the Venus shot a-head again, followed by the Rowel Eagle and Sylph. The Sylph, however, seemed to get a-head; but the Lady Louisa got by her, and the wind Wu* freshened, the Venus, Lady Louisa, and Sylph became the head. most boats. Down the river the contest excited the greatest inter est. At Battersea bridge the Venus was a-head by about three boats' length ; the Royal Eagle fourth boat, while the Lady Louisa and Sylph played with each other, until, in order to get to wird. ward, the Lady Louisa was nearly placed on her bentn-enda . The general cry now was, " It' s a ll u p,' --" the Lady's done,"--" going down." The Venus had now the advantage, and in the opt. nion of some, the cup was her's. She kept her way down, closely followed by the Lady Louisa, until they arrived at the King Arms, when the Venus, in orde r t o " keep her water," endeavoured to make " half water,' and veered. The Lady Louisa took ad vantage of the error, and kept close inshore, until she bad got the wind bang in her " peak," and, having but some few hundred yards to run, she won the prize. In coming in the Lady Leuhn was loudly chee re d, an d it is but justice to say that, but for tit error committed, the Venue must have won the prize. On Friday, as some ge - ntlernen were shooting en Donistliorpe manor, near Ashby-de-la-Zouch, ore et them, a Mr. Leedham, of London, accidentally discharged bia gun in a direction where Mr. Joseph L. Llama, of Packington, happened to be passing, who unfommatrlY received the contents in his left side.
