=! NOSEY MARKET AND CITY IVEIVS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. The inquiry for c]iqcount accommodation has been l etY much curtailed during the last few days, in consequence of an expectation that the minimum 1 , 3 5 fate of discount at the Bank of England will be s t, Immediately reduced to 5, if not to 5 per cent. Accommodation is already obtainable at the latter ct quotation in the general market, but a movement s. Ou the part of the anthorities of only 1 per cent. would no doubt have this effect of forcing the rates "t of doors to a lower point than that already attained. The only drawback at the present Ill ehlent is the position of the Exchange at New y ork, which many regard as an unfavourable feature, s . aln ee it may operate adversely upon the course of 8 monetary affairs by causing an influx of specie from s this country to the United States. The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon P i ,!hibited a further slight decline in the rate on , Hamb urg ; th e qu otations on Vienna and Trieste , s however, were rather higher. The Directors of the Royal Pcrtuguese Railway s• C ompany have made a final call of 300 f. per share, s s Payable from the Ist to the 15th of January next. 9 Rather less activity prevailed in the Liverpool s Cotton Market yesterday, but prices were firmly Ihitiutained. The sales were about 3,000 bales. , The following are the days appointed for the S hutting and re-opening of the transfer books at St t he Bank of England:— Shut. Reopen. Three per -a Cent.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Sittings at Nisi Prins, before Lord Chief Baron Pollock and a Common Jury.) DOBBS V. lIELLIER. This was an action of damages for trespass and conver sion of goods. The defendant pleaded the general issue. _ _ It appeared from the evidence that the plaintiff was due the defendant £2O of rent in March, 1853, and it was then agreed that he should become a weekly tenant, and sell his stock of tools to the defendant for £5 Bs., the plaintiff to re-purchase them again at one pound per week. The defendant alleged that the plaintiff removed his furniture without paying his rent, and left the shop -door open, and the defendant took possession in June last. The money for the tools was not paid. There was no person present when it was agreed to let the house quarterly and the shop weekly, at 3s. 6d. per week, to the plaintiff. 13 weeks' rent was then due to defendant. The plaintiff alleged a yearly tenancy payable quarterly, and denied the weekly tenancy. The rent was £2O a-year, payable £5 per quarter, and he had a right to remain until legally removed, but unlawful possession was taken by the defendent and his son, who commenced business as a blacksmith there on his own account in August last, using the plaintiff's tools in the trade. Counsel on both sides addressed the jury, and the Lord Chief Baron summed up the evidence. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, £4O damages for the loss, and £19175. for the tools. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner liolroyd.) IN RE STREATFIELD, LAWRENCE, AND CO.-IMMENSE LEATHER FAILURE. This was the certificate meeting in the matter of Law rence, Mortimore, and Co., trading in London and Liver pool. The bankrupt's accounts have already appeared in full. This morning the court was so densely crowded that it was a work of extreme difficulty to obtain entry. The mul titude were very quiet, and appeared greatly interested. Mr. Kerslake appeared for the assignees, Mr. Watkin Williams for the London and County Bank and the Na tional Discount Company ; Mr. Linklater for opposing cre ditors ; Mr. Lawrence for Lawrence ; and Mr. C. E. Lewis for the two other bankrupts. Mr. Lawrence was examined by Mr. Kerslake at great length as to the money transactions of the firm. The case is expected to last a considerable time. SECONDARIES' COURT. COCKSHOTT V. REV. H. lIRETT..--BREACH OP PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.-DAMAGES £1,200. This was a writ of inquiry to assess the damages laid at £5,000, defendant having suffered judgment to go by default. Considerable interest had been excited by this case, and it had been arranged to take it in the Common Pleas Court, Guildhall, instead of the old-fashioned law court in Basinghall- street. A special jury had been sum moned, and Messrs. Huddleston, Q.O , and Williams, instructed by Messrs. Sharpe and Co., for the plaintiff. The plaintiff is a governess. and a young lady of consider able personal attractions, filling a situation in Manchester, and defendant is the incumbent of some place in the same town. The parties had been acquainted for a considerable period, and no less than sixty letters had been entered on the counsels' briefs to be read during the proceeding of the ease. Everything was prepared this morning for trying the case, or rather for assessing the damages, and the Common Pleas Court presented a rather lively appearance. The special jurymen duly arrived, and some few proceeded " over the way," when, lo I at the eleventh hoar, or more properly speaking, at half-past ten, a clerk from Messrs. Sharpe and Co. attended, and stated that the case had been arranged between the parties, who had agreed to a verdict of £1,200 damages. A telegram had been received from Manchester, last night at half-past six o'clock to that effect, and so there would be no cause for the services of the special jury. _ _ _ . By direction of the learned secondary the special jury were discharged, and those gentlemen departed gtinealess. Considerable disappointment was felt by persons who had " heard of the case," and two witnesses who arrived, having been subpcenaed for the plaintiff, in haste, were informed of the withdrawal of the case. It is usual in cases where the matter is not arranged until a late hour to pay the jurymen their fees, but in this matter a simple discharge was the result, the only consolation being that the plaintiff had obtained £1,200 damages. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) POLICE INTELLIGENCE--(THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH STREET. SINGULAR CHARGE Or ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE. — Maria Reed, of 12, University-street, Tottenham-court road, a respectably-attired female, was charged with a robbery with violence in Oxford-street on the 22d inst Mrs. Caroline Whiffer, of 1, Milton-place, Dorset-square, said that at 12 on the night of the 22d the prisoner came behind her in Oxford-street, struck. her with an umbrella, seized her by the throat, tore her boa, and then snatched away her brooch, without saying a word to her. The prisoner then jumped into a cab, and as soon as she had gone she missed her brooch, which was quite safe twenty minutes before. A constable said the brooch had not been found. Mr. Mansfield said it seemed to be done more from some feeling of malice than with a felonious intention. The prosecutrix said all she knew of the prisoner was that 20 years ago she lived in the same house with her, since which time she had not seen her. Prisoner said she had known the prosecutrix for many years, and she had carried on an intrigue with the gentle man who ought to have been her husband. (Laughter.) The reason why she got into a cab was to avoid the prose cutrix's violence. The constable said the prisoner, when he took her into custody, had been drinking. Prisoner—Oh, don't say that. I never drink. Mr. Mansfield said it could not be permitted that the public peace should be broken, and he should bind the pri soner over to keep the peace in £2O for six months. WEST-END BEGGING.—A little girl, named Elizabeth Ward, whose head was only just visible above the dock, was charged by Leach, a constable of the C division, with begging. The constable stated that he saw the child lying in a doorway, at 12 the previous night, shivering with cold. He asked her why she did not go home, and she said that, having been at the Marlborough-street Police-court all the day on the charge of begging, she had got no money, and so was afraid to go home. He therefore, with the view of protection, took her to the station-house, where 4d. was found on her, which had been given to her by passers by. Mr. Mansfield said the effect of persons giving money to children in the streets was to encourage cruelty towards them when they did not take money home. He should remand her for a few days. _ _ Eliza Mahoney, an aged beggar, who had been charged at the different police-courts in the metropolis about 90 times, was again charged with begging. A constable proved seeing her begging of gentlemen, being drunk at the time. A mendicity officer said she had been oharged times out of number. Prisoner—You are an old liar. I've only been to Bow street and this court. Committed for seven days. OLD COURT. ALLEGED CHILD MURDER AT HOMERTON. Emma Padfield was indicted for the wilful murder of her infant, Augustus Padfield. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Best, of the Oxford Circuit. From the lengthened reports that have already appeared in The Sun, during the time the prisoner was under *mini- nation at the Worship-street Police-court, it is unnecessary on the present occasion to give more than en outline of the facts to refresh the memories of our readers. It will be recollected that the prisoner was a domestio servant, and hasi for some time lodged in the house of a labouring man, named Mead, at Lea Bridge, Bow. For some time she had a child with her a boy, about three months olds; that about 12 o'clock on Monday, August 27, the prisoner left the house, taking the child with her, which was then in a sound healthy state, and did not return home till about the same time that night, after Mead and his wife had gone to bed, when she was admitted by Mead, who saw that she was without the little boy, and to whom she accounted for the child's absence by stating that her sister had taken it with her into Somersetahire. On the following day prisoner left, asserting that she had got a situation, and was going to it. Nothing more occurred about her or the child till 11 o'clock on Wednesday, when Mrs. Mead happened to look into the cesspool of her house, and to her astonishment perceived the body of a child lying on its back, with the legs uppermost. She despatched a mes senger for her husband, who procured a constable ; and upon the body being extricated, it was found to be nearly black, the left arm missing having apparently been chopped off near the shoulder. The infant was conveyed to the station, while the cesspool was emptied, but the limb men tioned could not be discovered. On the discovery of the body the police instituted inquiries relative to the prisoner, and found that she had gone to live at Notting-hill, and on proceeding thither, Inspector Bowler called at a house in Lansdowne-road, and there prisoner opened the door to him. On being asked if her name was Padfield, she said it was not, but that it was Bride. The inspector informed her that he knew her name was Padfield, and told her that he must see her in the presence of her master and mistress. She took the constable to them, and in their presence he told her he was a police officer, and had come to appre - hend her on a charge of killing her child. She said she knew nothing about it, but admitted she had given birth to a child at Lea-bridge about the month of June. On being asked what had become of that child, she said the friends of the young man who was the father had taken it away to keep. She was then informed of the finding of the body, as above mentioned. She said, " I've been in great distress and wanted bread, but indeed I did not do it myself." Her box was then taken possession of, in which there was a con siderable quantity of apparel and other things, including a quantity of baby-linen, several letters, etc. In her master's kitchen prisoner said to the officer, " If you take me into custody all will come out—l'll let it all out. The father has behaved cruelly to me in not supporting it." On the body of the child being examined by Dr. Gay, senior surgeon of the Great Northern Hospital, he gave it as his opinion that the child did not die of any natural disease, but of suffocation. Referring to the amputation of the left arm, he said it had been taken off about an inch below the joint; an attempt had been made to take it off by the shoulder, but had failed, and it appeared afterwards to have been separated from the body by fracture of the bone. The skin appeared to have been cut with a toler ably sharp instrument, though the edges were jagged. He thought the suffocation might have been , produced by drowning. Mr. Best having addressed the jury for the defence, The learned judge summed up the evidence. The ury had not returned a verdict when we went to press. THIS DAY'S N.A.REETS. CORN EXCHANGE. There was a large supply of English wheat on offer in to-day's market, chiefly composed of the samples left over from Monday. For both red and white qualities there was scarcely any demand, and in most instances prices must be considered almost nominal. We were heavily supplied with foreign wheat. Evan the finest parcels were very dull, and to have forced sales further depressed prices must have been submitted to by the factors. In floating cargoes nothing was doing. Barley met a very dull inquiry, at a further decline in value of is per quarter. The malt trade was in a most inactive state, and prices were with difficulty supported. Oats changed hands slowly, and heated parcels of foreign were Gd per quarter cheaper. Beans and peas were a dull inquiry,.and the demand for flour was most restricted, at Monday's currency.

THAMES. BRUTAL ASSAULT UPON A POLICE CONSTABLE.—James Goyim, mate of a ship, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with violently assaulting a police constable named Josiah Gunton and police constable No. 104 H. Gunton said that last night the prisoner was very drunk and very disorderly in High-street, Wapping, and assaulted several persons, some of whom were thrown into the middle of the street. He told the prisoner to go home or get to his ship, on which the prisoner made use of foul language and struck him on the chest with his fist. He seized the pri soner, who struggled violently and kicked him on the leg. He called for assistance and the prisoner was secured. The prisoner, in defence, said he was very sorry. Me came on shore last night and got drunk, and hardly knew what he did or where he was. Mr. Selfe—This is not to be endured. Drunken sailors come on shore and run a muck, and assault every one they meet with, and then kick the policemen. You are the mate of a ship ? The prisoner—Yes, sir; I am, indeed. Mr. Selfe—That makes the matter worse. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. You are fined 40s. The penalty was paid. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. DUNDEE.-Mr. Cookson, the, nominator of Dundee for the Derby, is reported to be seriously ill. He is also the nominator of Kettledrum, Vancouver, and Pagoda. This event will, no doubt, give rise to other speculations than thotos already hazarded on the two favourites. We trust, however, that the reports of his illness are exaggerated, and that the Turf may yet long enjoy the presence and patron age of so thorough and genaine a sportsman, and that the Derby of 1861 may not be deprived of its chief feature of interest. CROYDON STEEPLECHASES.—Lottery was struck out of the Croydon Stakes and Metropolitan Steeplechase at 10 a.m., Nov. 26 ; and Kibworth Lass out of the Croydon Stakes, at 12.30 on the same day.

THE EMPRESS EUGENIE.—Th 4 incognito of the Empress seems practically to have be en abandoned when her Majesty passed the Tweed. It will hardly, we think , be resumed again, for Eugenie, it is said 1, will visit Windsor upon her return, and will there be ra et by the Emperor. Mappin Brothers have been appointed .cutlers to his Impe rial Majesty, and their stock of cutlery,:electro-silver plate, dressing-cases, &c., is well worth the ins p e ction of Queen or Emperor, and o all their liege subjects on either side of the Channel. Mappin Brothers' only London establish ment is at London-bridge; established ixo t Sheffield A.D. 1810. EXTB.AORDINARY ATTEMPTS AT S terday morning, at an early hour, a reel >ectably dressed man, named John Stone, aged 32 years, re siding in Jaxnes street, Horton, jumped cff one of the I iarapets of Lon don-bridge. Boats and drags were soon: out, and he was rescued. He is at St.Thomas's Hospital Ma. precarious state. Shortly after the above occurrence a -woman, named Kitchen, leaped from a parapet of BI stokfriars-bndge, striking against the abutment as she fell. Sh e was taken out of the water and removed to St. Bart] blot UM'S Hos pital, where it was found that one of her legs wa ss H o right fully mutilated mutilated that amputation was necesssay. er li is in great danger. It appears that a quarre t .had taken place between these two unfortunate creatures.

RAILROAD COM- PAIV The London ag:nts of the Illinois Central Rail road Company have received a communication, dated Nov. 13, from Mr. Walker, the chairman of the executive committee at New York, which pos sesses much interest at the present political and financial crisis. lire extract as follows : The issue of the Presidential election last week has caused great excitement in the eastern portion of the Southern States. In regard to the business relations of the South with the North, there is much division of opinion in the Southern States; there is no intimation that Louisiana, Missouri, or indeed that any of the most northern or western of the Southern States, participate in the extreme ideas entertained in South Carolina, of non-intercourse with the North. The suggestion of disunion na turally induces great cautioa in banking institu tions, and among capitalists. Southern drafts or notes are not negotiated with facility, and exchange drawn by Southern banks has declined, and sales of sterling bills made in New Orleans as low as 4 per cent. The bills sent here for sale scarcely meet purchases at any rate, without a local endorsement ; and thus, in a single week, the everyday commer cial transactions between the North and South are fettered with such distrust, that a resort to gold, as a medium for payment, is imperative. The capital of the New York bankers had, for a long period, been loaned upon stocks, at low rates of interest. The call for these loans, and shipments of specie South, has hastened the panic in Wall street, which will hardly be confined to stocks. The inability or unwillingness of the South to pay its debts to Northern merchants and manufacturers, is daily more manifest ; for the South, aside from political uneasiness, has this year to contend with a short crop of cereals, and must purchase largely to feed her population. I need hardly say that, in the present disturbed state of our mercantile rela tions, there is no concurrence of opinion as to the result. The decline in the Illinois Central Rail way shares has been 26 per cent., upon the New York Central 19 per cent., upon New York and Erie 14 per cent., and upon other shores in a si milar ratio. Mercantile paper, which was current ten days since at 7 per cent., is unsaleable at 12 to 18 per cent. per ann. There is no new element of danger to affect the Illinois Central property . unfa vourably. The State of Illinois is blessed with the most abundant harvests, and after delivering im mense quantities at the shipping points, all in fact for which there were means to remove by water or rail, it is conceded that large stocks of wheat must of necessity lie over winter, and that the corn crop just harvested has yielded 50 per cent. more than any preceding one. At the present moment a pe riod of commercial embarrassment is apparent ; previous experience seems to warrant the con clusion that next spring will show a large im migration to the west. A share of this will reach our lands, and the sales in 1861 may reach 2,000,000 dols. to 3,000,000 dols. In this case the company at the close of next year will hold an amount of notes for lands sold, exceeding its funded debt, and with a surplus of 1,100,000 acres of land. The sales this year average 15 dols. per acre, and under the present terms of credit, interest at 6 per cent. each year in advance, with the first payment of the principal in four years, greater punctuality may be looked for in the payments. The total collections in cash and bonds at the close of this year will exceed four millions of dollars ; and of the construction bonds 1,668,000 dols. are already paid. Our financial condition presents no motive for alarm ; the pay ment of the free land debt and of our interest this autumn leaves us with a debt of about 400,000 dols., which matures at convenient periods, and is bor rowed at 7 per cent. interest. This will be reduced next month below 300,000 dols., and in regard to the payments of interest next year, a moderate in crease of traffic will leave sufficient profit from the earnings of the road. Many will remember the short harvests in the United Kingdom in 1847, and the effect upon the prices of breadstuffs in this country. The prairies seem to have opened up since that period, and from Chicago alone, which could hardly be said to exist at that time, we have had a supply of breadstuff in excess of the home demand, enough to furnish all which England re quires to make up her deficit from the worst harvest for 20 years. Chicago has already furnished 33,000,000 bushels of grain, and the capacity of the steamboats on the Illinois and Missi ssi pp i rivers is taxed to the utmost, taking flour and grain south. HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Registrar-General's Weekly Return.) An increase in the mortality of London was announced in the last report; and a considerable advance is apparent in the returns for the week that ended last Saturday. The deaths, which were 1,049, 1,083, and 1,183 successively, in three pre vious weeks, rose last week to 1,257. When the average number of deaths as obtained from the weeks corresponding with last week of 10 years 1850-9 is corrected with a -view to comparison for increase of population, it is found to be 1,376. Hence the actual number of deaths was less than that obtained by calculation by 119. Cold weather and scarlatina raised the deaths in the correspond ing week of 1858 (when the mean temperature of the air was 37.4 deg., or 2.3 deg. below that of last week) to 1,802, and therefore assisted to swell the average with which the present return is now com pared. In reviewing the restats of the last two weeks, it appears that the deaths by smallpox rose from 3 to 10, four of which occurred in the Small-pox Hos pital ; those by diphtheria from 12 to 17 ; those by phthisis (or consumption) from 156 to 168 ; those by bronchitis were 138 and 137 ; and those by pneumonia increased from 109 to 124. The total number of persons who died at 60 years of age and upwards rose from 224 to 275. It should be observed further that the increase of the mortality of last week on that of the previous return arose in the eastern and still more in the southern group of districts, the other divisions either showing hardly alny increase or an actual decrease. Or to take a few districts in all parts of the metropolis, the deaths in Westminster rose from 28 to 42, in Pancras from 71 to 92, in Shoreditch from 50 to 67, in St. Saviour Southwark from 15 to 22, in Newington from 28 to 46, in Camberwell from 22 to 31, and in Greenwich from 36 to 67. Six children—viz., the daughter of a bricklayer, aged six years, the daughter of a labourer, aged five years, the daughter of a dockyard labourer, four years, the daughter of a policeman, eight years, the son of a messenger, six years, and another child, three years—all died by burns received from their clothes taking fire. Five children were suffocated in bed. A child died from the foul atmosphere of its apartment, an infant from an overdose of opium, a bedstead maker from want and exposure, and a child was poisoned by foul drainage in Vincent street, Hoxton New Town. A domestic servant, aged '72 years, who is said to have spent £l4O in intoxicating liquors in 15 months, fell a victim to her wretched improvidence, and her death, which was sudden, from congestion of the brain," is included in the present return. Of eight nona genarians two had attained the age of 95 years, and one 98. Last week the births of 926 boys and 887 girls, in all 1,813 children, were registered in London. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years 1850-59 the average number was 1,581. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich height of the barometer in the week wass' the mean 29.6 in.

FALLING IN OF A TUNNEL.—A serious accident of this nature has taken place on the Severn Valley Rail way. This is a new line in course of construction from Shrewsbury to Stourport, and close to Bridgn orth an ex tensive tunnel is in course of excavation, which will par tially run under the town. Above the entrance, and for some distance into the tunnel, there was a thickness of some 30 or 40 feet of soil, in which a number cf large trees were rooted.

Lovell's play of " The Wife's Secret" affords, so far as the illustration of a principle is involved, another phase of the comedy " The Wonder," but dignified by the noble object for which silence is observed, and involving far greater sacrifices. The two noble parts, those of Lady Eveline and Sir Walter Amyott, are conceived and elaborated with peculiar skill and j ment, and found most eloquent interpreters on Saturday evening. When Garrick was looking for an actress who could do justice to Shakespeare's Lady Constance, Quinn, in his rough forcible way, said with great warmth, speaking of Mrs. Ciblicir, " that woman has a heart, and can do anything where passion is regain. d ;" and Mrs. Kean, to whom the rem ar k i s most applicable, never more moved or carried with her the feelings and the sympathies of all present than she did on this occasion. The hushed attention that allowed every whispered accent to be heard --th e tears that flowed unchecked from many an eye—the illusion that made all upon the stage appear a reality, and the spectators ad mitted, as if they were true friends, to share in the grief of a private domestic household—the wonder ful accord between the words she spoke and the action which enforced their meaning —these, and many other beauties of dramatic conception and exquisite execution, were revealed in all their at ' tractive truth and identity with nature. The con vuls ve shudder that passed through her frame when the dishonouring suspicions of her husband are first disclosed—the revulsion for an instant from the devo tion of her love to almost hate—the long-drawn sobs of prostrating anguish when all she has lost in his generous heart is presented to her memory, were among those traits which call for peculiar notice, but Almost elude analysis from the taste with which all the aids of art were united to genuine sensi bility. Mr. Kean's Sir Walter was a performance worthy of his name and reputation. Vigorous, forcible, and passionate where the events called for the display of such characteristics. The struggles between his faith in hiswife's honour and his distrust, arising from the secret visits of the stranger, and the prompting cf the Puritan lago of the drama, were admirably depicted. It was no formalist who was repeating a set lesson that stood before the audience, but a man feeling and suffering as a man should under the deeply-interesting circum stances ir. which he is placed, and the poetry of the text lost nothing of its brightness in his deli very of it, and gained in force and fire. An old essayist observes that " the knowledge of language is only entering the portals of learning and, in like manner, a mere acquaintance with the business of the stage, while facilitating dramatic success, is only a means to an end; but having passed the portal, Mr. Kean has discovered some of those deep and silent founts of the heart which are sealed to the more listless inquirers after the truths of nature. The house was crowded to excess in every part, and at the fall of the curtain Mr. and Mrs. Kean were called for and greeted with the most enthusiastic plaudits.—Saunders's News Letter. FE3L4 LE VENGEANCE. A case which excited a certain degree of interest has just occupied the Court of Assizes of the S e i ne _ et• Oise for two days. Mme. Thiebault, the w if e of a photographer, of Paris, was indicted for " cutting and wounding," and her brother, a young man named Yvoret, was accused of being 'her accomplice. The indictment set forth that about a year ago Thiebault, the female prisoner's husband, formed an improper connection with a young woman named Ture, a music mistress. 'He installed her in a shop belonging to him at Belleville, and employed her in his business. Mme. Thiebault, after a while, having heard of the woman's connection with her husband, went and abused her with great violence, and one day last winter beat her and pulled her hair. Mlle. Turc afterwards left Belleville, and wanted to break off with Thiebault, but he would not consent. In June, at his request, she took a lodging at Enghien, where he pcssesses a house, and in the absence of his wife he often visited her. Before long Mme. Thiebault became aware of the young woman's presence at Eughein, and was naturally exasperated, even declaring to a friend that she would avenge herself by throwing vitriol in the ether's face. On the 3d August Thiebault went to Enghien, leaving at Paris his wife, who said she was indisposed, and he invited Mlle. Tare to dine with him. The dinner took place in a small chalet near his house, and after it he went out leaving the young woman alone. At about eight o'clock, some persons passing heard piercing cries, and, the moment after saw Mlle. Turc appear at a window, crying for help. At the same moment, a young man rushed forward, and presenting himself before the window shook his clenched hand at her, saying—" I have caught you as last, and will pay you off! I have long been looking after you !' Then he entered the chalet, and a few seconds after the noise of glass breaking was heard, this was followed by the cries of a female for help ! But before any one could enter, Mlle. Turc, with her dress in disorder, het hair dishevelled, and face stained with blood, rushed from the build ing. She ~:as conveyed to an apothecary's shop, and there ied out that she had her hands, neck, and face e,ach scratched, had received violent blows on the head from a blunt instrument, and had hcr face, left arm, side, and bosom burned with sulphuric acid. She stated that, as she was seated in the room, Mine. Thiebault had burst in like a fury, and thrown a quantity of corrosive liquid on her. Mlle. Turc in terror ran into an adjacent room, and fastening the door, called for help from the window ; Mme. Thiebault, having in vain at tempted to force open:the door, had cried out for her brother, who soon appeared, broke open the door, the upper part of which was in glass, and throwing Mile. Turc down, held her on the floor, whilst his sister beat her ; she added. not content with that, Mme. Thiebault had attempted to pour sulphuric acid into her eyes, but she protected them with her hands, and it was in so doing that the liquid in flow ing about burned her in various places. At length Thiebault came in, and Mdlle. Turc was able to escape. The indictment declared that the injuries received by the young woman were so grave that for some days her life was in danger, that she will never regain the complete use of her arm, and that her intellectual faculties will, from the shock she received, be for a considerable time affected. As to Mme. Thiebault, she said that, suspecting the rendezvous of her husband with Mlle. Turc, she had followed her husband to Enghien, and being exasperated at finding her rival in the chalet, had snatched up a small bottle of sulphuric acid which happened to be on a table near (her husband having need of that article in his busi ness), and had thrown its contents at her; t but e she positively denied that s'ie had beaten to young woman on the floor, or ha d atte mp ted /I indictment, pour sulphuric acid in her eyes. h at o t ss a - ek ev , er a , e i d ns h is a t d ed go t n h e at te sh E e e l,,,iyab.deieprTeehmeeepdiaterapteedse thethat carry it out.

But all her promises were vain ; and when I reproached her she had the crue lty to say to me, 'Your husband does not love veil, and he may as well love me as any one else !' " Mme. Thiebault positively denied that her brother had accompanied her to Enghien with the intention of committing an outrage. "No !" she cried, "he knew nothing ! If there is any shame or dishonour, let it fall on me alone ! The accused Yvoret declared that he knew nothing of his sister intending to attack Mile. Turc, but be admitted that he was indignant at finding the woman in the chalet, and had also broken open the door, but denied that he had held her down whilst his sister beat her. Mlle.
