re dosed, It la generally for the purpose of enabling the depositors 6lther to purchase a house, or to engage in business. It is c intended by ail the persons engaged in banking in Scot la td. that the issue of one-pound notes to essential to the con. tipuance both ot their cosh credits, and of the branch banks CP!a. iiiiP4 , ll in the poorest RO4I most remote districts. Whether the dis entainuance of one-pound oases would necessarily operate to the lull event which they apprehend, in either of these respects, may, erhaps, admit of doubt ; but the apprehensions entertained en this head, by the Persons most immechatdy concerned, might. for a hate at least, have neatly the saint effect to the actual necessity, and there is strong reason to believe that if the prohibition of one pound notes should nut ultimately overturn the ;elude system, it it ust for a considerable time mewl illy affect it. The Directors of the Hank of England, who have been catt y Med before the Committee, have given it as their opinion, that a et.culation Of notes of one pound in Scotland or in Ireland, would not produce any effects injurious to the metallic circulation of Eng land, provided such notes be respectively confined within the bolt:l -oafs, of their own country. Nocwitratanding the ouitiona which have been here detailed, the l'innn.ittee are, on the whole, so deeply i.'..prestied with the int ! otta. ce of a metallic circulation below 5L in Ergland, not only for the benefit of England, but likewise for that of all the other p. r s of the empire, that It they were reduced to make an option h,oween the establishment of such a metallic circulation in Scot land. or the abandon/mint of it In England, they would recommend the prohibition ot mall notes in Scotland. But they entertain a reasonable expectation that legislative measures may be devised, which will he effectual In preventing the introduction of Sewell paper into England ; and onless such measures should in practice prove ineffectual, or unless come new circumstance should arise to derange the operations of the existing system in Scotland itself, or niateriaily to street the relations of traoe and intercourse between Scotland and England, they are not disposed to recommend that Cite *misting system of banking and currency in Scotland should be disturbed. iVith respect to Ireland, the situation of that country,. as to its circulation, and as to its system of banking, is materially different from that of Scotland. In Scotland there are three banks, of which the proprietors are protected by Act of Parliament or Charter, from personal responsibility beyond the amount of their respective shares. and there are many other banks, consisting of a large and unlimited number of partners, persohally responsible to the whole extent of their property, of which the aggregate amount is very considerable. There are also branches or agencies of most of the banks very widely established throughout the country. In•lrelatid, the only Bank possessing the advantage of a Ihni tattoo of personal responsibility, is the Bank of Ireland, which, till a late alteration in the law, was the only establishment which was permitted to have more than six partners. The circulating medium consists, indeed, in both cruntriea, to a great extent, et notes under live pounds ; but the system of banking in Ireland, instead of remaining unshaken for a long period, as that of Seodand, has experienced so many shocks, that its banking establishments are now nearly confined to the chartered Bank of Ireland and its local ngencies, the branches of the Provincial flank which is established in London. one Joint-Stock Company is Dublin, and another at Belisle, the latter of which has Incal ages cies, ands few private Banks in Dublin sod Belfast. The taste of Dotes under five pounds has been at different periods per mitted tibited in Ireland ; there is therefore no prescription to pleadZr e Z il r continuance, Ind there is no experience of any such system as that of cash credits in Scotland, which is stated to rest rnainly upon their issue. There is not at present in Ireland the same 'meek upon orer.insues which is derived in Scotland from the eon lien .1 exchanges of notes between the different Banks ; and the tanuras o private Banks have frequently spread the greatest distress over large portions of the country. Previously to the Bank Restric- TAM Act, there appears, by the evidence taken before the Committee or the (louse of Commons, in 1804, to have existed in Ireland a considerable metallic circulation, of the existence of which in Scotland the Committee are not informed. _ .._..-.-..--. Many of the reasons, therefore, upon which the Committee have grounded their opinion against any present provision for a :11tUT4 alteration in the currency of Scotland, do not apply to Irela^d, and the introduction of a larger proportion of metallic contort , into the latter country appears liable to less difficulty tilos the application of the same principle to the former. There is. however, a considerable difference in the opinions of the wit. Pauses whom the Committee have hitherto had the opportunity ofelemining. While all agree in the necessity of allowing the issue paper halo, W., on account of the small value of the articles which compose the daily transactions of the country, there are some who think that the inconvenience to be apprehended from any coange in the present circulation would be only temporary, and would he materially mitigated by allowing the issue of notes of 2/. or 3!. There are others who state that any alteration by which the issue of one-pound notes should be prohibited, would cause the cessation, or at least the contraction, to a most inconvenient de. grew. of the accommodation now afforded to the country ; that it would involve the discontinuance of many of the branches both) of toe Bank of Ireland, and of the Provincial Bank ; and that it - would put an end to the prospect of establishing the Scotch system of cash credits, into which system the Provincial Bank was begin ning to enter. Tim Committee cannot but admit it to be doubtful, whether, coder the peculiar circumstances of Ireland, the Scotch system is capable of being transferred in all i a parts. and with al l Its ad- Vantages to that country ; but they abstain front recommending, at the present moment, the adoption of any measure for assimilating by stow gradations the circulating medium of Ireland to that which will becime, at an early period, the circulating medium of Eng land. only under the expectation, that further information and more experience, as to the effects and operation of the changes which have lately taken place in the banking system of Ireland, may lead to the formation of a derided opinion upon grounds more completely satisfactory than those upon which they could at present rest it.

In answer to the questions put to her. she now stated that she was bow at Amiens, and educated in Dublin, where her family re. sided, M No. 12, Marlborough-street, Great Britain -street. Her father had been an Officer of the 32d regiment of foot, but cashiered by a court-martial, in consequence of a blow given in a fray to a brother officer. He died to 1011, and the CIICURIStIIDC4II of the family after that event became very reduced. In the Course of last year, her mother took her brother to Scotland, with the view of getting him educated, and settled there. She bad some money with her for the purchase of some goods of Scotch manufacture, in order to carry on a small business in Dublin. They were both lost in the Coast steam-vessel. The young sufferer, who had previously held die situation of governess, deemed it advisable to seek the aid of some persons in London ; she, however, only knew the address of one lady. After her passage from Dublin, she Came to town by the caravan , and arrived on Saturday. She then discovered that the lady whose address she knew had left town nearly two years.

COURT OF CHANCERY, FRIDAY, Juwz 2. On the Loan CitANcy.t.T.on's coming into Court this morning, he said that on Monday he should propose something to Counsel to facilitate the getting rid of the business, not only of that which was in anear, but also that which was coming on. SIR GREGORY PAGE TURNER, BART. The Lotto CHANCELLOR retired from Court at eleven o'clock, In order to have an interview with Sir Gregory Page Turner, Bart. as prayed in a petition presented to Ns Lordship for that purpose. The Counsel for the parties were also summoned to attend the con. ference. His Lordship was absent a considerable time, but on his return he did not make any observation as to what had trans. pired. PRACTICE OF THE COURT. Some altercitiontookniscefCir priority between the gentlemen within the bat as to making motions, and a long discussion arose on the subject, in which the Lord Chancellor, Al r. Hart, Mr. Agar, Mr. Home, and Mr. Heald, took a tart. The LORD CHANCELLOR alluded to the very great inconve nience that was experienced from the practice at present pursued of burdening his Court with motions that might be heard elsewhere, and remarked on the practice which prevailed in the Vice.Chaned- Ines Court of adhering rigidly to the rule of not taking any motion except on the occasions specifically appointed for that purpose ; the effect of which went to multiply the number of those that came be. fore the Lord Chancellor, and the consequence of which arrange ment further 11A,9, to bring discredit on the practice of the Court. His Lordship alluded particularly to the practice of getting a mo tion heard which embraced the whole question of an appeal, and thereby surreptitiously obtaining his Lordship's opinion, and de , luring the other business of the Court. In the course of the con. venation his Lordsnip observed, that in Lord Thutlow's time his Lordship used only to sit from eleven o'clock until three, when his duties called him elsewhere : but the then Master of the Rolls used to sit until four o'clock in the morning, in order to dispose of motions for the Lord Chancellor. The practice appeared to have been formerly to take the motions according to their dates, with one exception only, that of application for an injunction ; and his Lordship observed, that until some remedy was adopted for the present evil, any suggestion for which he should be most happy to receive, he must leave it to the honour of Counsel not to bring for ward any motion specially, unless they could state that it war of the last importance; in all other cases, that they should be taken in the numerical order in which they stood with the Registrar. In the course of the observations by Counsel, it was observed that it was impossible they could know, among motions which they all might have to bring on, which ought to hare the preference, and suggested the propriety of some decisive regulation on the sub ject. No suggestion, however, was made as to how it will to be accomplished; After some further discussion upon the point of precedence, Mr. HART succeeded in obutiniiig a hearing in on appeal motion, the particulars of which have already transpired, and the ergo. meat on which continued until the rising,of the Court. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT-FRIDAY, JUNE 2. In the coarse of the day Mr. ROUPEL moved that an order might be discharged, which had been obtained by a party to dis miss a bill filed against him, on the ground of the plaintiff not proceeding in due time ; stating that the cause of the delay arose from a cpiesticm of reference being pending. Mr. SUDDEN, in support of the order, said that the offer of re ference was made by his client so long ago as the 30th of April,' 1825; that the plaintiff had then refused to accede to such offer, and that no proceedings had since been taken. The Vice-Crtaxcetron said, that the practice of the Court at present allowed a great deal more time to Solicitors to conduct their causes, than in the opinion of • late public Commission was in any degree necessary. It was most essential that Solicitors of the Court were to be taught that it was their duty to proceed in the management of causes with diligence and activity. His Honour was of opinion that the Solicitor in this cause had vsed no such diligence and activity; and that the order for the dismissal of the Bill could not be discharged. The Court would be considered a party to the delay, if it were to grant these applications, on the part of Solicitors. He would not consent to be a party to any such delay. Motion refused, with costs. JOHXSTONS. BAIT. V. MASTERTON traz, Mr. HORNY moved, oa behalf of the defendant, Mr. Ure; to discharge en order, made by his Honour on the 26th of April last, whereby it was ordered to refer back the interrogatories and ex. aminations of tbe defendant Ure. On the of April, a motion was made by the petitioner to obtain an order for the defendant, to pay in several sums of money into Court. This was a mere specu. sure attempt, in which the plaintiff failed, for the Court refused the motion, with costs. After that another motion was made, for referring back to the Master the interrogatories and the examina tion of Mr. Um. Now, he conceived that this order was obtained improperly, inasmuch as the motion was without any notice to the demean', of the motion being about .to be made. Heappre. headed, and he was fortified in that opinion by the beater evidence. namely. the Register of this Court, that no such proceeding as this could be supported upon an examination that was earned into the Master's cdfice twelve months ago. Although in special eases the Court might send back the interrogatories and examination to the Master, yet he thought that it could not be done as a 'nattier of course. The Learned Colour' then read the affidavit of the clerk of the late solicitors of the plaintiff in support of the mo t ion. The VICE-t;itaxcitta.o a—Do you say that the order was ob. tamped without notice P your Honour. Mr. HEALD entirely digitred la "Mice with Ale. ILam, that the Register had given any such opinion as had been staled. Bat first of all he must observe, that he could not see why this motion should ha spoken of with reference to any other motion that might hue been made, and of which he knew nothing. He thought his Learned Friend, in making allusion to any other ease, mum be in dulging in something altogether imaginary. HO( Mr. Heald) con ceived this to be as much an order of course samtny other motion that was made in this Court. The VicE-CunsicELLoll.—Have you the order of reference ? Mr. HEALD—Yea, Sir--[the order was then handed up to his Henottri—and it is a motion of course. When he. heard it stated that the plaintiff' should have given a special notice 6f tits motion, he certainly felt some surprise ; fur if such' ntodonsns these were special motions, it was a practice fraught whir so many inconve tiiences, that is ought immediately to be putan enti to. It was really ridiculous to say that the Master was not to be at liberty to examine into the interrogatories and examiaation, to ascertain their aufEcieoey. Why should not the Master be at liberty to do so ? The VICE-Cuancxxxott —How is this, Mr. Walker (the Re gister of the Court —the practice must be very clearly known ? The Register then conferred with his Honour, after which, The VICE-CUANCELLOII, addressing himself to Mr. Heald, said, the Register is of opinion with me. hlr. Heald, against you oo this motion. Mr. lliatD-1 know very well the opinion of the Regiuer, but must beg la bare your Honour's opinion also upon it. I know that Mr. Walker, jun., who is now in Court, is opposed to roe, and I dare say there hes been a consultation upon this subject between Mr. Walker, jun. and Mr. {Volker, sea. (A laugh.) Mr. Wat.aaa, jun—Mr. Jackson is our Clerk in Court, and he Is aho of opinion that a notice is necessary, Mr. HEALD—The question s and— The V' morning, • were assignees under the commission of bankrupt, awarded and issued against Marsh, Stracey, Fountleroy, and Co.. to recover the sum of 1.1.701. raid into the bankrupts' hands, when bankers to the Commissioner., tinder an appointmers of theist of July , 181 f 1 . The action was br oug ht u p on a local Act of the 12M (leo. 111.. for watching. paving, and lighting the parish of St. Pancras, which authoriaed the Commissioner's-to sue and be sued in the name of their clerk, rod also upon the 57th Geo.lll. which is a general Act for the paving, lighting, and watching the metropolis; and these Act, enact that the several collectors shall pay the amount of their collectiOns to a treasurer, and that if such collector, trea surer, or other persons, appointed for the eolitetion and receipt of the moneys to be collected, die defaulters fOr the amount of their collections, or become bankrupts, then their executors or assignees, respectively, shall pay to the Commissioners the fell amount of their claims before all other creditors, if their be sufficient assets, and in case there are not sufficient assets, then the whole amount of the 113SOPP, as far as they will go, in covering the amount of the default. The case was tried at the Middlesex Sittings in this place, after Trinity Term, 1825, before the Lord Chief Justice and a Special Jury, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff, subject to the opinion of this Court, upon a special case. It was in proof at the trial, that when Marah,Stracey. and Co. were appointed bankets to the Commissioners, Sir James Sibbald was a partner, and after be died, in 1819, previous to the bankruptcy, no new appointment of the surviving house as bankers to the flomtnis sioners was made. Further, it appeared that there was no trea surer to the Commissioners when the money in question was paid to the house of Marsh and CO. The question for the opinion of the Court was, whether the bankrupts, as debtors or defaulters to the Commissioners, came within the meaning of the local and gene neral Acts above stated. Mr. CHITTY now, in support of the verdict, contended that it was perfectly right. Ist. The words in both Acts were as specific and clear as possible, that the plaintiff's should be entitled before all other creditors, in cases where persons who held their moneys died, or became bankrupts. h was not necessary that the bankers should be strictly officers to the Commissioners, because they came within the scope and meaning of the words, " or other persons." 2d. As to Sir James Sinbald having died, that made no difference wha'reer, as his surviving partners went on receiving the moneys of the Commissioners from the different collectors ; told therefore, if they did not come within the meaning of the general words; " or other persons," they were virtually the treasurers of the Com missioners, and so fell under the operation of the Acts. Mr. BOLLAND, on the other side, contended that in point of fact these Acts, being in contravention of the common-law rights which all other creditors of a bankrupt would have, they must be construed strictly according to the letter; and then he sub mitted that the words " other persons" must be taken in purl malaria with " collector and Unnerve," and "other persona" would then mean " other officers" of the Commissioners. lf, how ever, this point failed, in truth the bankrupts under their firm had never been the bankers of the Commissioners • because the firm appointed as bankers was the firm of Marsh Sunny, Sibbald, Fauntleroy, and Graham ; and when Sir James Sibbald died, there ought to have been a re-appointment of the surviving partners in order to make them strictly the bankers of the Commissioners. SirJ. Sibbald might have been the moneyed man in the concern; and after lie died, a new undertaking of the survivors ought to have been made. and the public ought to have been acquainted with It. The Corer stopped Mr. Chitty In reply, and said they had no doubt in this case. By the provisions of the late King, it was ettacted, that in case any treasurer or treasurers, collector or col lectors, officer or other persons appointed for the collection or re ceipt of the moneys to be collected and received, shall happan to die or become bankrupt, before he or they shall have fully satisfied and paid all the moneys received by him or them, for or on account of the Commissioners or Trustees, then his or their executors or assigner, shell oat of his or their assets pay the amount of the de. fault to the Commissioners or Trustees before all other creditors. The word " bankers" is not used in the Acts; yet it must be taken to be efrodeen generis with persona appointed for the collection or receipt of moneys. The house of Marsh, Stracey, and Co. were so appointed for the receipt of money, for and on account of the Com missioners, and therefore they are within the meaning of these Acts. A re-appointment of the surviving partners, after the death of Sir James Sibbald, was unnecessary; because the surviving partners continued in the receipt of the money, and therefore they became virtually, though not nominally, the Treasurers of the Commis sioners. - - Judgment for plaintiff'. At one o'clock the Lord Chief Justice went to Guildhall, to try London Common Jury causes. IN THE 'MATTER OF tavorcliE. Mr. Him. renewed his application, made last Term, for a rule calling upon the Marshal of the King's Bench prison to re admit the defendant to the rules of that place of confinement. When the Learned Counsel made this application before, the Court said that they had no power to compel the Marshal to allow the rules of the prison to any person within his custody ; but they desired that their recommendation in favour of the defendant might be corn. municated to the Marshal, and they expressed a confidence that he would comply with Mr. Latouchea request. The communication of the opinion of the Court had been made to the Marshal, but he still refused to allow Mr. lAtouche the rules. The Learned Counsel, therefore, now renewed his application, and said that the interference on the part of the Court now asked was not to compel the Marshal for the first time to admit a prisoner to the rules; but the Marshal having arbitrarily deprived a person of the rules, who ha paid a very large ;um of money for them, this ap plication was to call upon him, as an officer of the Court, to show cause why he did not re-admit that person to the rules. The Learned Counsel urged the hardship of his client's case In very rt ong language. Mr. Justice BAY LEY -All that would have done very well, a week ago, in the House of Commons, Mr. Hill, but It will not do here. You ask us to do Impossibilities. We never have compelled the Marshal to grant the rules to any prisoner, because, if there be an escape, our conduct towards him would be no answer to an ac tion against him for the escape. Mr. HILL remarked. that there was now no Houseof Commons. Mr. Justice BAYLEY-11ave you any case to shot, that this Court has ever interfered in the manner you ask ? Mr. HILL said that a case of such hardship as the present had never before °enured that he was aware of; or, if it had, he was sore, for the honour of the Court, that he should find a decision in favour of his client in the books. The COURT were unanimously of opinion that the utmost they could do was, to grant a rule, calling upon the Marshal to show cause why he should not refund a part of the money paid to him for granting to Mr. Latouche the privilege of the rules. Mr. HILL took this rule by his motion. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, FRIDAY, JUNE 2. The Court was occupied the whole of the day in hearing motions of course. CONSISTORY COURT, FRIDAY, JUNE 2. [Before Sir C. Rontxsox.] BLIGH V. BLIGIC. In this case, which is • suit for a divorce, brought by the hus band against the wife, by reason of adultery, Ur. Fox, the Proctor for Mrs. Bligh, appeared, and prayed the Court to dismiss the suit, as Mr. Bligh's Proctor had not brought in the libel. Mr. SLADE, who appeared for Mr. Bllgh, eithibited his proxy, and said that there was no wish on the part of his client to delay the suit. Mr. Fox—Then why has not the libel been brought in ? Mr, SLADE replied that the libel bad been prepared several months ago, and was now in the hands of Dr. Lushington ; and that any delay which had takes place was attributable to Mr.Fox'a party, who had for nearly two years frustrated all attempts to serge a citation. The Courr —Let the libel be !fought in on the next Court day. NINN. night, she stink down upon some steps, where the officer who had brought her before them found her. The unfortunate yonrg girl answered with the greatest clearness every question that was put to her. The two worthy Altlernicn subscribed for her present relief, but expressed their perplexity as to what asylum they could send her to. They were informed that there was a Society called the Provi sional Protection Society. conduced entirely by ladies, wind,, though ore of the least ostentatious, was invariably the most ser viceable in cases of a:, extraordinary nature. Alderman Lucas Immediately went to seek Mrs. Hicks, of Cheapside, the Secretary of the Society. In the course of the after. noon he returned, anti expressed his regret that he had, after a di ligent search, been unsuccessful. it so chanced that lady, and others of the Society, were all out of town. The Governor of the Compter was then requested to, take her under his protection, anti treat her with all the care which hir Ki:uation rendered necessary, until some means could he found of providing for her. She expressed her gratitude to .the Magistrates ' in an impressive manner, and was conducted to the Compter. We were given to understand by the Governor that the turnkey, in refusing her admission, acted in compliance with an imperative order from the Magistrates. The applications for admission are often very numerous there, and the officers are seldom men who are able to distinguish such a ease as the above from one of com mon incndicity. 111ARL8OROUGILSTREET. Ma. MICHAEL ANGELO TAYLOR'S ACT.—A case of great interest to shopkeepers and to householders was brought before Mr. CONANT yesterday. It was an information on the 72d sec tion of this Act, against Mr. Vaughan, a broker, in Porter -street, Newport-market, supported by Mr. Allen, at the 19stance of the parish authorities of St. Ann's, defended by Mr. Adolphus. Porter-street has been lately repaved, and, among other improve ments the parish wished to effectuate, was the removal of the iron rails In front of Mr. Vaughan's house, which improvement, Mr. Vaughan said , would be a reduction in value to his house f 20f. a-year. Besides, he has three houses in the same street, and when the rails were put up. seven years since, it was with the consent and approbation of the alteration. As it was wished to let the case rest oh the bare construction of the 721 clause, in the least offensive way to all parties, Mr. AOOL rnus declined the usual formality as to proof of service, &c. Mr. ALLEN then read the clause, a very long one, authorizing the Commissioners to remove all signs, sign-posts, cisterns, rails, fixed or moveable, from the fronts of or contiguous to houses, or any projection in any way obstructing the light or air, &c. &c. Mr. Reynolds, of Princes-street, is a Commissioner; he bad seen the railing in front of Mr. Vaughan's house, and considered it a projection proper to be removed. On the flat bars over the area a dwarf railing of two feet six inches had been erected, which was an impediment to the progress of foot-passengers. Mr. ADOLPHUS-1f this railing can be construed within the meaning of the Act, every iton railing in London may be removed on the same principle. The Act specifies projections overhanging, &c. This is simply a railing over the area—over a place that oever has been paved, and over a private property. 1 recollect when all the houses in that street had wooden rails and paling. Mr. APOowan, of Oerrard.street, has been a Commissioner for 15 years; 30 years ago he resided in Porter-street, and was ac quainted with the alterations effected at different times. Mr. Vaughan added the dwarf railing reten years ago ; it was with the consent of the Commissioners. lie thought it would be a great advantage to Mr. Vaughan to have the rails removed. Mr. ADOLPHUS—It is the fatality of some men not to see emi nent advantages through other men's eyes. What you think an advantage, we view as a considerable deterioration. After allowing the alteration while the Act was in force, the Commissioneta have no right now to complain of what they themselves sanctioned and authorized. Resler, to come within the purview of the Act, the addition must project over the foot or carriage way. Alr. CONANT said, as others in the same in the same street would be affected by the decision, and as his decision would be final, he wished to have the opinion of his brother Magistrates on the clause of the Act, as the question in dispute was wholly resting on con struction as to fixed railings. To-morrow, at two o'clock, he would give the determination of the Magistrates. The partias then left the office. . . APPREHENSION OF THE M'KEANDS.—l n formation was this morning brought to the Police Office, that the persons charged with the dreadful murder near Eccles, had been seen, on Friday evening, in the neighbourhood of Skipton, by a person who knew them well ; and shortly afterwards a I?tter from Sir Philip Musgrave, Bart. of Appleby. was delivered, informing Mr. La vender that Matthew and William Atkinson, Esqrs., and Sir Philip, had that day committed to Appleby Gaol, for further exa mination, two men brought before them, on suspicion of being the persons described under the names of Michael apd Alexander M'Keand, as being guilty of the murder of Elizabeth Bate, at Winton, near Eccles. The persons of the men correspond gene rally to the description given in the advertisement. There have been found on the person of them a letter directed to Michael Keand, draper and tea-dealer, Foundry-lane, Oak-street, Man ' choster a bill addressed to Mr. Alexander Keand, an d a l oa d e d pistol, l ive bullets, and a little gunpowder. On the other prisoner, a penknife, to appearance slightly marked with blood on the handle, two razors, &c. were discovered. hlr. Lavender, with proper assistance, and witnesses to identify the prisoners, set out to-day for Appleby. They will be committed at once to Lan esstet.—Afamehester Mercary, Second Edition. DREADFUL ACCIDENT IN FRANcE.—At eight in the evening of the 10th of May, as the inhabitants of Montignae were going to the promenade, a terrible noise was heard. Guided by cloudsiof dust which darkened one side of the town, they ran imme diately to the spot from which the noise proceeded. They saw with terror that the thick walls of the castle which commands the town lied fallen, and that their fall had completely overwhelmed one house, and very much damaged two others. They bad after wards the pain to find that four fathers of families and one woman had been buried under the enormous mass of ruins. One person alone was found alive, after great exertions. SMOCKING OCCURRENCE AT SEAFORD.—A shocking occurrence took plate here on Tuesday night. Between eight and nine o'clock a party of persons, chiefly composed of a band of mu. sicians, who had been brought hither to enliven the approaching election, were dining in a room at the Old Tree, which Is an open house for all corners at this time, when some dispute arose between two of the musicians, one named Humphrey White, and the other John Williams, in relation to some family affair, in which it ap. White, IVillianas used some expressions which e xcee di ng ly I rr i tate d White, who swore, if the expressions were repeated, he would stab Williams to the heart. NVilliams, not heeding the threat, again repeated the words, on which White immediately struck him a furious blow on the left breast, near the heart, with a large case knife, which inflicted &dreadful wound, but it is hoped it will not prove fatal. The unfortunate man instantly fell back into the arms of the persons near him, after who, calling in surgical aid, conveyed him to bed, where he still lies in a dangerous state. It is said the parties were both intoxicated at the time. l'iltite is a native of Ireland. He was taken into custody the same evening he committed the rash act, and was subsequently conveyed to gaol. It is seldom our task to record an act of greater atrocity than the following s—On Thursday night, the 25th ult. some villain or villains entered the garden of J. T. Doing, Esq. of Crow-hall, near Downharn Market, and maliciously cut down and destroyed, all the valuable orange and lemon trees (many of them of more than 30 years' growth), various other plants, together with a great number of melons and encumbers. Not sufficiently sated with this work of destruction. they proceeded round the garden, and barked, chopped, and destroyed almost all the wall fruit upon the premises, leaving scarcely a tree uninjured. Many other valu able trees in the garden shared a simil ar fate, and two long rows of currant bushes were cut close to the ground. In short, such a tseen of malicious devastation was never before witnessed in the bourhood.—Cambridge Chroniek. ELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.-011 Thursday l as t, as t h e Rev.

On Wednesday hit she procured an ouuce of aquafortis (for the alleg e d p urees e of takingi t to some person in the country), the whole of which she swallowed. T. W. Burt, Esq. surgeon, although entertaining no hope of her recovery, did every thing to alleviate her misery, but with considerable opposition on her part, as she resolutely refused to take the antidotes prescribed by him, or to allow any other appli. cation till force was resorted to, wh en she reluctantly yielded. She lived about thirty hours after taking the acid. The body upon being opened presented a shocking spectacle, the whole of the in seal coat of the stomach being destroyed, and the other viscera much disorganized. The Jury having returned a verdict of polo de se, the body was privately buried about ten o'clock at night, agreeably'to a late Act of Parliament. WIFE SOLD.—Mr. Colbatch called the attention of the Magistrates to a most disgraceful transaction that was reported in the Brighton Gazette to bays occurred in the marker, namely, that a man had sold his wife to another person.
