Every member, who has any new discovery or invention in the arts to communicate, is in vited-to explain and exhibit it ; and the meetings have hi therto been attended by the many philosophers of the day. From the drawings lately exhibited by Mr. Faraday, in illustration of Mr. Brunell's patent for actuating an engine by carbonic acid in the piece of steam, many are sanguine as to its ukimate success. Should sueh an object be ever achieved, it is said that it will give to man a power as far superior to the common steam-engine as that extraordinary maefrine is above those which are actuated by animal strength. There is every reason to believe, that the heat of a cannon lamp might, in such a case, be substituted foe that of au expensive furnace ; since the liquid carbonic acid, when under the pressure of forty atmospheres, is Converted into gas, or made to boil by the low temperature **eh is produced by the beat of the hand.

On his Lordship taking his seat a gentleman addressed him, stating that he was an attorney of the Court, and bad received an insult from one of the officers of the Court, and was aim esseider. ably hurt. lie trusted hie Lordship would Lactase his thus men tioning the master. The Loan CHANCELLOR observed that he acted very properly in so doing, anti it he would inform him of tie name of the indivi dual, he would take care that it should not again occur. The gentleman stated that he did not wish to name the indivi dual, but he thought it right, as an attorney of that Court attending there in the exercise of his duty, to mention it. ' The Loan CitAxcr.r.Loa said it would not perhaps be im. proper for him to nay akw words with respect to that Conti. A complaint had been made that the Court was too small; the fact Was that it wes larger than the former Court in Westminster Mil, although it might not be very convenient. The bar appested to be properly accommodated, but the solicitors had some difficulty to dud a place wherein to give their attendance. The bar and the solici tors must necessarily attend, and tbeir attendance might operate to the exclusion of another class of his Majesty's subjects. No man was more satisfied than himself of the value of the publicity of the proceedings of the Court- it was of the utmost importance; but there was no class of his Majesty's subjects none entitled than an other. It had been supposed that he had made some order for the exclusion of certain persons. There was not the least truth in it ; he had wade no order, either one way or the other. lie wished to state that whatever might be the consequence of what he did or said, or however his actions might be represea'cd, his determination was, that all have a right to attend, and he would not make an order for any class except for the banisters and solicitors. After some observations with respect to the gallery which. as we understood his Lordship, is to be altered, his Lordship said he had thought it proper to say thus much, not wishing to be misrepresented. WELLESLEY V. THE DUKE OF lEAUFORT. The Loup Out:scar-Loa said, that haring the papers In this ease now before him, he would state what presented Its If to him as necesmry at the present stage of the muse to be done ; or rather he would intimate, for the consideration of counsel, whether or not Mr. Wellesley would not think it proper to make some further affi davits. His Lordship then alluded to the question as to the right of the Court to interfere in such a case, and said it was a painful dory, and that siVer'y Judge should exercise It with the greaten care, anxiety, and caution. Respect for the feelings of a father. and the duty of the children to their father, should be consulted and upheld. He had hall occasion to interfere in a case, which it was not neces sary to name, where the father was training up his children in the prindples of atheism ; in that case he had declared his judgment ;n tenths* to t h e counsel, that they might see the grounds upon which Isia decision rested In the prasent case there were a number of cir cumstances which had not been answered, and many that had. Mr. Wellesley had sworn that hr hail been obliged to barn and lock up s number of tract, from his children, which tended to instil into their minds principles of sectarianikni. Another fact was, that when Mrs. W. separated herself from her husband, it was distinctly un derstood that the children should be brought up under the directions of their father; but in giving his judgment, it did not follow if the children were taken from their father's care, that they must of ne comity be under the care of any of the persons whose names had come before hint ; hut it had been distinctly sworn by the ladies named in the cause, that the children went regularly to church every Sunday. His Lordship then took a review oldie transaction with a lady whom he would not name, at Naples, Paris, and other places, and suggested that the lady might have made an affidavit in reply to some of the facts. In conclusion, his Lordship oh. served, that probably Mr W. might think proper to make some further affidavits; and he also thought that .11r. Pitman might be ab!e. by an additional affidavit in explanation of some points that must have come under his observation, placed as he was with re gard to the children, very much to enlist hint in determining which of the pullet had sworn truly or otherwise. Mr. HAAT assured his Lordship that Mr. Welledey was quite ready to make any farther vifidavito his Lordship might think proper, and had only retrained from making more on account of the number of affidavits that would have poured in from the other side. hlr. tIoaNE stated that the lady his Lordship had alluded to had been always ready to file such an affidavit a would have re. moved the loed of calumny that bad been heaped upon her, al. though she certainly would not den' the connexion. It was eventually understood that .Me. Wellesley and Mr.: it. man should make some further affidavits in reply to the second series of affidavits of Dr. Ilulkeley sod Mr. O'Meara, If they thought proper. THE LATE ML RDER IN MARTLEBONE. Mn. Cooper obtained some rest on Sunday night; and though still in danger, there are sanguine expectations of' her ultimate re. corery. Her wounds. though deep and painful, appear favourable; but the surgeon thinks that the part of the ear which was nearly severed wiH not unite. Several persons of rank, residing in the vicinity, have evinced a disposition to take an interest in her affairs. She has, at the pre sent moment, four children living, but it is not true, as asserted, that she is likely to have any addition to her family. The youth who gave his evidence on the Coroner's Inquest, has had so secerkest of the lever, which was originally caused by the frightful impression left on his mind from the attack to which he was subjected. and which has now very probably been miengthened by the necessity of recalling all the frightful 'circumstances more' vividly to his recollection, when compelled to give his testimony before the Coroner. Pollard, the murderer, was married, sixteen years ago to the, deuzlner of a hatchet ha Marylebone-lane. He suce..:eded bis father-in-law in business; but, in consequence of his idle habits, became insolvent, and his wife died from the effects of his ill.treat. meta. Subsequently he married a second wife. foul whom he has hen separated eight yeses. In the interval lie has, been leading a dissolute Hfe, and has occasionally been stipnlied by his wile with money. He has lived, however, witn Mrs. Pilgrim two years, and she only separated from him on the very day of the unfortunate catastrophe. On that day, she says, she happened to call upon her brother (Mr. Cooper) who persuaded her to separate 'lentil firm Pollard, and acting under his advice, she wrote ar.d seat the following letter to Pollard : " Deur Joseph—l think it my duty to inform you, that I hare for a long time disapproved of the tootle in which we hove been living, and have come to the-determination to separate for ever. I therefore request that you will immediately scut me my clothes to rt.y brother's house. " Yours, S. Pivirtue." In consequence of this letter, Pollard called at Cooper's house on Friday evening. He heat came into t he shop. kneading to *peak to Mrs. P. to th e p at i ent ., b ut M r . C ooper having dechned site should not speak to him in his house. and thin if she felt desirous to hold any conversation with hint it should be in the street, Mrs. P. went Into the passage to speak to htnt, end he endeavenred to prevail upon her to alter her dtterntination, and return home with him. She told him that she had come to a fixed resolution to separate herself from him for ever. Pollard told her the: he Lived her too sincerely to consent to be paned from her, and he added (placing his hand on his breast), " I have something here that will do for all." Mrs. P. says she thought he spoke in jest. and she told him, that although she had determined never to live with him again, she would return home with hint that night, but he was to understand that, next morning, they were to separate for ever. She then turned round, with the intention of fetching her bonnet sod shawl troth the parlour, for the pivot of accompany. ing him ; and slit assorts that it was at that moment he atishbed her The first thrust penetrate:l the shoulder, the second the arm, and the third entered her hand In her fright she returned back to the street door, and rushed into the street, where she was assisted by a gentleman who happened to be passing. and who took her to the house of Mr. Chadwick. a surgeon. Pollard forced file way from the passage into tite parlour. where lie murdered Ali, COOrt, and made those slump on the life of Mrs. gOoper and the boy which Case been already stated. Vl'nen The. IT: wad iiken to the in. &mar', she seemed to be rather disturbed in her mind, and the medical gentleman who attended her asked her If she had been drinking liquor, for she % t oted intoxicated. She replied, that she certainly had been drinkflig ; but only a couple of glasses, which could not possibly have affected her. Pollard, when brought into the Infirmary, complained that he had a great pain in his heart ; and he requested to have some cold tea, as he was very thirsty. In the course of the night Mr. Onntlyer, the surgeon, milked him if he had been drinking gin ? Pollard nodded his head, hut gave no answer. In tact, through. our the night, he was sullen and niorMe ; and, when spoken to by Mr. floodyer, Dr. Poole. or tiny of the medical gentlemen, he would riot condescend to give them an answer, but turned hit. back upon them in the bed, at least as far as his wourttls would permit. At one time Mr. Doodyer asked him if he knew what he had been doing to To this he returned no answer. Another time, when he complained of excessive thirst, Mr. Ooodyer asked him what drink he would take ? Ile immediately demanded cold water ; but added. " I ant dying-1 em eying of the pain I feel in these wounds." About a qunrter before three o'clock, on Saturday morning, be inquired how Cooper was ? The nurse said, " What, is Mr. Cooper ill, or do you think he is hurt ?" lie gave no answer to this question, and shortly after expired. From this it would appear that he was conscious of %hat he had done, and that he was nor an much intoxicated all It has been supposed. Pollard's wife applied to Mr. Goof:yew on Saturday, and re quested lie would give up the body of her husband, in order that she might bury it on that day. Mr. Goodyer told her that her request could not he complied with ; and the poor woman, who is rather an interesting figure, retired evidently much disappointed. On Saturday evening the Jury viewed his body, at the same time as they viewed the body nt Air. Cooper. Shortly afterward. Mr. De Ville, jun. of 347, Strand, leek a cast of the head. Mr. De Ville n marked, that the head was uncommonly well formed. The organs tr the animal pmpensities appeared strongly developed, but the higher mental faculties were rather deficient. The organs of amativeneas, combativeness, and destructiveness, seemed unusually The per, assisted by Dr. Poole, • Charles Phillip•, the sur the left side, there were two ngth, which were traced as :tween the sixth and seventh ting the apex of the heart, I left lobe of the liver, into wound penetrated into the posterior part of the mesente ry, and dividing sevarsf 1114Iressels in the neighbourhood. The heart was found empty of which stmeared to have escaped from the wounded vermeil the cavity of vhe abdomen, and thereby eecasioned death. We understand that the husband of Ales. Pilgrim, from whom she has been separated many years, ri.ited her yesterday in the In firmary. They asetinned far some • time in private conversation, and it is hoped and expand that s reconciliation will now take plus between them. INQUES? 011 POLLARD. Yesterday Mr. Stirling. aril the Jury which had formed the nl quest to inquire into Mr. Cooke* death, re-assemblA at the Buf falo's Head. New-mad, to atcertain the state of' mind of Pollard, when he perpetrated the savage act and destroyed himself. Mr. floodyer, house.surgeon to the Marylebone Workhouse, de posed that when Pollard was brought into the Infirmary, he had two cuts or wounds in the left side; his body was in a state of pro fuse cold perspiration. ■nd he seamed in a dying state; he was scarcely sensible. and groaned; when asked where his pain was, lie replied, " In My heart ; " and being asked what he had done the cruel act for, he tinned away morosely, appearing to avoid the question. When the witness saw him first. he considered that no medical or surgical assistance would be of any avail, he being mor tally wounded. Juror—Did the man appear to be sober ? Mr. Goodyer—l cannot say ; he answered certain questions, ap rearing to understand their purport perfectly, and giving such answers as his mind suggested. Ile evaded some questions, turn. tog his head away sullenly. I cannot say, because I have nothing to govern me, whether he was sober or not. I think I asked him if he had been drinking gin, but do not recollect his answer. A daughter of Mr. Cooper, a child of nine years of age, was here produced, and with much inn/wince of manner stated what she had seen. She said her name was Marian Cooper, and she was nine years of age. On Friday evening last, when Pollard was convers ing with her aunt, she went into the passage where they were talk ing, and thought he said he would marry her aunt, but all she heard him say was—" I will." Her aunt said, " Now don't you." Her aunt had her hands towards his bosom, and was endeavouring Rim)] something nut. She looked a little closer, and seeing a knee in Pollard's hands, ran out and screamed. On her return into the shop, she SAW Pollard standing across the parlour door, saying to her father, " You shall not come out." Her mother mate some observation, and then Pollard ran and stabbed her fa ther, who cried out " 0 Lord !" and staggered out. Pollard then knocked her mother down on the sofa, and attacked her. She (the whams) hit the knife with fire-shovel, and knocked it on on* side; her brother also hit him with a poker; his' father staggered out and died. Coroner—Did you see him stab your father before he stabbed your mother ?— Yes, Sir; m mother ti?w at him, on his coming to the parlour door, and got Mtn down on the sofa, in a struggle, after he hid killed my tither. Coroner—Did your father strike or push him at all ?—Not at all, Sir, I can assure you. After my father had been hurt, he reeled nut to the shop door. I screamed and followed him, and did not come in until Pollard was secured. Juror—Did you see him stab your mother or your aunt ?—No, Sir. Juror—What al your mother say to him when he came to the parlour door?—only this, Sir, "She is no wife of your's; go away." He then ' , tabbed my father. .7. H. Bassett, a butcher's boy, of No. 7, Walker's-court, St. James's, deposed as follows-1 hare known James Pollard two months; he used to collect debts for my father. On Friday last he came to me at my father's house, between five end six o'clock in the even'ng. He was much Intoxicated. Ile borrowed a knife from me, which knife belongs to my father; he took it front the shop block. [Hewitt, the chief constable of the Marylebone police. here put the knife on the tahle.l That is the knits he took. He said he wanted to grind the knife, but I did not ask him what lie wanted it for. He wanted me to go down with him into the kitchen, to torn the grindstone, but I refused, having injured one of my thumbs; my younger brother turned the stone tor him. He never before took a knife away. He occasionally helped in the shop. Coroner—Did you not object to a drunken man taking the knife away P—l did, Sir; but he went away without my seeing him. He told a servant in the house that he was going to cut some rump steaks. I had no idea what he wanted the knife tor. Ile went away about six o'clock. Juror—You say lie was in a state of intoxication ; was he ca pable of knowing what he was about ?—Oh, yes ; he was not so 'drunk but he knew well what he was about. He was in the habit of being drunk. W. Bassett, brother to the last witness, gave similar testimony, adding, he said to me, ' Do you think this is sharp enough to cut a man's throat ?" I said," I did not know." lie then said, " Whe ther or no, it will answer my purpose." The servant afterwards ' , allover and told a Mr. Higgins that Pollard intended to cut a man's throat. Diary Sheppatd. servant to Mr. Bassett. said that she saw Pol lard on Friday morning about ten o'clock ; he seemed embarrassed , in wind ; she did not hke to say any thing to him then, until he ' shed tears and cried ; she asked him what was the matter, he said, " I am in a deal of trouble;" she asked about what? he answered, '' Only about a female I have lived with;" slie rejoined " Ah, never mind that, we are all liable to misfortunes." lie cried for some time arol then went away. She understanding him to say that he was going to the Borough to inquire about her. as she had left hint ; desired him on his return to tell her how he got on, and not to drink at all. He returned again at three o'clock quite tipsy. and said lie had found out where she was; he had a bit of paper in his hand. He went away ,n a y came again still more embarrassed and intoxicated. and ground the knife.- /She went out. knowing he had the knife, and lit the street sake/ him for it. He said he had not gat any knife. She having roe *se him, some boys followed ; but lie did not s peat In a f i tetkica4 lie certainly etas intoxicated sad tam Juror—His telling you calmly that he had no knife about him, shows he mold not have been very drunk. P. Andrews, a watchman, said that he was doge to Mr. Cooper's house, and saw him stagger out wig tall ; he raised his hody as a little girl ran out, cryirg •• Oh, ray fattier is murdered !" and al. moat instantly Pollard appeared at the door, brandishing a knife, and swearing •• he would serve every body the same way, it they op. posed him." He returned into the shop, and the witness and some of his comrades stepped over Mr. Cooper's hotly, and saw Pollard passing the knife front his right to bis left hand, and pointing it to. watils his own left side. Coroner—Then he stabbed himself with his left hand. Juror—Could you not have secured him before he destroyed him. self ?--,I cannot say. Juror—How many minutes were yon there before you ventured upon the steps ?—'iot above one or two. it was not discoreted that lie was wounded until he was brought to the office. The CORONER here said the unfortunate Mrs. Pilgrim was in the li , ftrniary and could not be brought there, but if the Jury pleased they might go and hear her evidence; but he did not really see what necessity there was for any thing of the kind, as they had heard evidence fully, in his own mind, emtablialting the fact of the wretched man having enactej the whole of that dreadful tragedy which had caused their meet lie thought'alao that the Jury cola not get any additional evidence (roof the examination of the woman of the state of the man', mind. becanao it had beeh proved that he had deliberately and sanely burrowed, ground, and carried that knife about with him, and had goi,e direct to Mr. Cooper's and perpetrated this most cruel and barbarous murder. L had bem also proved that he was druid: at the time. Was that an excuse for the [cuing loose of ungovernable passion ? Most cer. tainly not. If it were, ho feared litany indeed would be the mar -1 dens daily committed. • Therefore lie really considered the evidence complete without Mrs- Pilgrim's test'inony, and the Jury could come to no other conclusion upon it than that which he pointed I out. . . An enditulital (said to be Mr. Cooper's brother) wished to have Mrs. Pilgrim i.xamined. The CORO X Ea again observed that there was no occasion. There could be none:. but it was just as the Jury pleased. lie certainly emundered this one of the moat atrocious canes he ever heard ot, 'and would remind the Jury that this man bid not, by any person, Ibeen said to be auliject to deliriem ; on the contrary, he was only eacribell its 4 drunken dissolute fellow, living in a state of adul. d rf ; and Winne Mr. Cover properly desired him to quit the house, modem!' ing by that act this adulterous intercourse, tho lain stabbed him to the heart, and in less than halt a minute com mitted four felonies. Now, with evidence st complete before them, without even the most remote suggestion of his madness, he really considered they could only come to the conclusion of his being per. feel of sane mind at the time of his committing this horrible act. The Jury, however, went to the lntirntavv, where they found Mrs. Pilgrim sitting on a bed. Ste appeared to have a wildness in the eyes: She, however, very collectedly gave her evidence as fill ' lows :—My name is Harriet Pilgrim, and my residence is at No. 12, Park-street. I knew the deceased Pollard. On Friday even. Mg he called at Mr. Cooper's, at about seven o'clock in the even. Is 6. 1 spoke to him in the passage, as Mr. Cooper objected to his being admit od into the house. He asked me why I had left him ? Hs said, " You will repent it." Fearing he would do Month ' harm, I said I would go with hint and get illy bot.het and shawl. I slid rut see any knife in his hand or bosom, hot lie had his hand Upon his breast. Ile was certainly nut in liquor, and was not given so drinking. I had written him a note in the morning. He did not say it I refused to live with him lie would murder. :kir. Cooper. As I was leaving the passage he struck at Inc with a knife. He aimed at my brertat, but the blows fell upon my arm. The Jury having merely asked a kw questnina of a general na. lure. returned to the Jury room, having on Saturday evening seen the body. The CORONER again addressed them to the effect already stated. The Jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of Fob de sr. _ The Coaostrn told the Jury that their duty was thus ended, u the law pointed out the disposal of the body, or any goods or chattels of the deceased. EXECUTIONS AT GLOUCESTER, ~c. Saturday last, J. Sparrow, for sheep-stealing, and J. Oliffe, for horse.stealing, ended their lives on the scaffidd at the county gaol. The former Was a native of Painswiek, and the latter of I)uutis. bourne A bbot s. Subsequently to the announcement ofxbeir awful doom, their behaviour was appropriate to their situation. Saturday morning both convicts attended divine service in the Chapel of the prison, after which, they were conduced to the scaffold. In their way to execution, both evinced unwonted firmness tied self-possess Nina. Sparrow was the first to ascend the scaffidd, when he appeared to falter, but it was only for a moment, and immediately assumed a resigned attitude, while being tied to the beam. 011te then lightly mounted the steps, and having instructed the executioner how to adjust the rope, requested permission to address the multi- tude. With a firm voice, he exhorted the spectators to avoid those evil courses *hick had led to his own destruction, and to follow the ways or truth and religion. After some sentences to this effect, he concluded by reciting with a distinct and audible voice, the whole of the cxlii. Psalm. He then exclaimed •' the Lord bless you all!" and, turning round, shook bands with his fellowssufferer,iwhet. the drop tell. The sutterings of both seemed to be but of momentary duration, and in the evening the bodies bete delivered to their friends for interment. An immense concourse of people was present. Wednesday, at Monmouth, T. Davis, convicted on four indict. Incas for horse-stelling, underwent tho sentence of the law at the usual place of execution. Ile had resided in llonmou•hahire as a respectable farmer, and had fur some time been engaged in stealing horses, or receiving them when they were stolen, to a considerable extent. lie devoted the whole of the brief time allmted to him in preparing tor the termination of his existence, and was thus enabled to meet his death with fortitude.
