will be injurious fo those proprietors, Orme property is t situated near Newcastle, and Carli , le, and the other large I towns. This I conceive to be a mistake, for it is quite clear to me, that if we bring produce froth the" remotest I parts of the county, we shall increase the comforts of the I inhabitants, the population will consequently increase, and the proprietors immediately surrounding will necessarily I participate in the general benefit and improvement of the neighbourhood. Who, for instance, ever thought that the lands of Essex and Middlesex were less valuable, because the inhabitants of London got hams from Cumberland, or butter from Ireland ? Whatever increases the opulence of any place, roust be productive of benefit, in the surround ing n e ighbourhood. if things are brought from a distance, potatoes, for instance, from Brampton, something will he taker. back is exchange for them ; the increased popula tion and wealth of the town will increase the value of the property around it ; we shall see houses and villas spring ing up on every side of us, and the lands at Jestnorel and Elswiek will let as well for keeping cows, for the produe- tion of vegetables and other purposes, as they now do for growing corn and bay.—(Applause.)—l now, Sir. come to the consideration which induced me, in the outset to anticipate a more than ordinary support from his Majesty's Ministers. In the first place, there is a depot of arms and ammunitien at Carlisle, and another at Tyneinouth; these have been found convenient places as the kingdom is the narrowest at this point, and hence the measure we are now advocating becomes one of interest and importance to the Government. Suppose there was a necessity for remov ing troops from this side of the country to the other, it would now occupy about four days, whereas were a Rail way established, it would be effected in eight hours ! Is that not of itself sufficient to recommend the measure to the favour of Government ? But that is cot all, a few years ago a friend of mine, General Dhow, made a survey of the line, and recommended some rapid and easy mode of con veyance along it, as a measure of the greatest importance to Government. I therefore confidently hope we shall hay- the support of his Majesty's Ministers.—(Applause.) Another point of view. and after all, perhaps the greatest of any, is the rapidity of carrying goods of all descriptions. The speedy executing orders for goods is of the highest irn portance, it nearly doubles your capital, and its advantages altogether are so great, that the merehaute of Manchester and Liverpool have found it necessary to make a Rail-way, though they already had a Canal. That mode of convey ance was found to be too slow, and a quicker transit of manufactured and other goods was considered indispens able. By a Rail-way, for example. we shall hare slates front Cumberland in eight or ten hours, which now we procure from Wales by sea, or from Cumberland in carts, which are several days upon the road ; is that not a conei deratiou of importance? Is it of no importance to grocers and others, to have their sugars and geode of all descrip tions brought so quickly? It is too °brims to Le doubted. The Canal, at Carlisle, has already preeluoeti the greatest possible benefit to the eountry. It has increased the popn latiou of Carlisle, as I before stated, and a few spirited in- I divideals have established steam-boats to Liverpool, which are of great advantage to the neighbourhood. The market of Liverpool is now supplied with fat cattle, from Carlisle, by these steam-boats, in about ten hours, without losing a pound of flesh ; whereas formerly, the farmers had to drive them to Skipton, and from thence they went to Liverpool, and were above a week on the road. Bet there is no end to the advantages that result from such undertakings. When we have established this Rail wit', it will merely he the trunk, which in time will spread its branches all a round._(Appwase.)—lt has been urged against Rail-roads, that they injure people's views, and interfere with the comforts of individuals ; but how, I would ask, can a Rail-road, on which there are no loco motive engines, be more injurious in those respects than a turnpike road? Must it not, indeed, be less so? There will he fewer individuals employed for the same quantity of goods ; they will be conveyed with greater rapidity, and infinitely less confusion. Why are we everywhere im proving and Macadamizing our r oads b u t to a pp roximate them more nearly to a Rail-road ? The one is only a more perfect conveyance than the other. There will be a diminution of the public-houses; there will be no loiter ing on the road, no negligent carters drinking, or sleeping in their carts, but all will be quietness, all will be order and regularity, and there will be no injury to any one, ex cept what applies to every public communication, For merly I recollect, there was only one vehicle of convey ance between this town and Carlisle, and that was a sort of whiskey, which was employed once a week for carrying the Newcastle papers (for we in Cumberland had a taste for reading; and seeing what was passing in the world,) and now and then a solitary passenger; but now we haee two coaches every day. We had then only two carriers, with three or four miserable carts ; now, the road is covered with carts, both by day and try night. All this chews that as the country increases in wealth, as the people he- come enlightened to their own interests, these improve ments meet take place, and necessarily ;rine out of the state of the ,ountry. It is necessary that every means, which our sagawity can supply, should be resorted to, to enable this country to maintain the high place she has ac quired amoo the nations df the world. We are not now g contending with ignorant nannns ; an attachment to . free institutions is every where showmen -capitalin—cita is spring ing, up, and improvement is ea, fives ry quarter ; and we mutt consequently exert ours: 31'es in proportion to keep pace with, and I trust, to surpass all ethers.-e—CApe planse.) Sir, I aria extremely sorry to say that, with all its ad vantages, there still does exist an opposition to this great measure. lam sorry on every acconot, and not the least because it will be attended with expense. It has, Sir, been the anxious wish of the directors to soften that oppo sition as much as possible, and they have been desirous of raving the funds as much, or more than if they had been their own ; for their honour and interest are both at stake ; but, I am sorry to say, they have not been able entirely to remove it. In a line of 62 miles it was impossible not to come in collision with the comforts, or supposed comforts, of souse individuals ; hut, by the great skill of our engi neer, such eases have been reduced fro very few, and we have avoided naming in collision with all the dwelling bouseson the line. Only three, indeed, occur to me which are at all likely to be injured by the measure. My friend, Dlr. Howard, of Corby, has a beautiful residence in that romantic part of Cumberland, which it has been impoe bible to avoid. The Rail-road will pass near a delightful walk where I have often been, lint Mr. Howard, with that liberality and good sense for which Le is so distinguished, saw that so important and valuable a measure rouse be ear ried through, and that his opposition, powerful as it whaled have been, would only have caused expense and delay, and could not have been succeesful,—he saw also that it would improve his property, and, so an honourable man and a patriot, he felt that it would benefit his native county, and the country at large, and he not only withdrew iris oppo sition 'out borame a shareholder and a director. Bert he has Lad no advantage at our expence, we have doue no morn for biro than we have done for other gentlemen, for we Lave alwaye been ready to obscure or ornament where it !teemed necessary and desirable. The neat is another friend of urine, Mr. Beaumont, of Bywell, near whence beautiful and desirable residence the Rail-road unavoidably ;oust pass, though, fortunately, on the opposite side of the rivow, but, acting upon the same priocipics as Mr. Howard, arid wishing well to his country, he gave up his dislike, and is a large subscriber to the undertaking. The only other ease, and I lament that one exceedingly, is ;J at of Mr. Bacon, of Styford. I never saw Mr. Bacati l e reahlooce, but, lam told, it is a very pretty place, and, unfortu wetely, the Rail-road has to pass through part of hie estate. It vas offered to Mr. Bacon to take it through any part of his property, where he thought it could pass with the least ineonven;ence to him, but all negociation was refused, and the question resolved itself to this, shall we pass through an acre of Mr. Becon't estate, or shall Ile give up the eneasure altogether? Possibly if our engineer had met his, mime arrangement eeight have been come to ; but no, though the Rail. way would lie farther from hie house than from Mr. Howard's, though the river intervened between Mr. Bacon and us, and though, try alit means which we offered to adopt, it may be excluded Inna. sight from his gordens and pleasure-grounds, still he, nefontunately, has not found it expedient to be reconciled, and La Las said, that if we go through due inch of his land, he will oppose it with all his power. I lament it, it will cost us earne money, and I am exceedingly sorry for it.— There are some ethers who oppose it, but they ore few, and their grounds of opposition very feeble. Every nonioe will be taken to reconcile them, and I trust their opposition will be finally removed. But, whether or not, we must go on, we will go on, and, I doubt pot, we shall succeed. (Loud applause.)---In conclusion, Sir, Ido hope and trust, and in doing SO, I Am only expressing the now:rest wish of all :he directors, if there be any gentleman here neho can throw :way light upon the subject, or who feels Mowed aggrieved b y ' it in any way, that lie will have the good ness to point out bow it can be made better, or in what way it will do hint harm. The directors court inquiry, and they will feel obliged to any gentleman who will can didly state his objections to the measure, ic. the face of this great meeting, that they may Lave an opporteo;ty of answering and investigating them....-(Long and loud ap plause continued for some time on the teemination of this speech.) We are glad to hear that, with the Hackney Coach Corntnigaioners, the whole system of monopoly in Public, conveyance ill to be got rid of. SECOND EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Seven o'Clock. PERIA L PA R LIA M ENT THIS EVENING. HOUSE OF LORDS. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat at Five minutes past Five o'Clock. Lord AUCKLAND gave notice that the Marquis .of Lansdiv.vne, who was not able to attend to-night. would present a petition to-morrow from the Catholics of Ireland, praying for the removal of Catholic disabilities. LJL:st as the Noble Lord concluded the Marquis of Lansdowne entered the House which occasioned a great laugh.] The Marquis of ANGLESEA presented petitions from the Protestants of St. James's parish, Dublin ; from the Mayor and Corporation of Galway ; from the Catholics of Longford, Wicklow, Wexford, and several other peti tions, to the amount of 29—a1l praying for relief to the Roman Catho'ics. The Noble Marquis also presented four petitions for the repeal of the Sub letting Act. The Marquis of BRISTOL presented a petition from Stowmarket, in favour of the Catholics. Earl FITZ WILLIAM presented petitions from Don caster and Poole to the same effect. The Marquis of DOWNSHIRE presented a petition from the Catholics of the county Down, praying their Lordships to review the Catholic laws. It was agreed to at a very numerous meeting at Newry, and was signed by upwards of 9,000 persons. The Noble Marquis also pre sented a petition from the county of Antrim signed by 3,000 persons, together with three others from parishes in Downshi re. The Earl of WICKLOW presented petitions from the Catholics of Duncannon and Wicklow, praying for eman cipation. . _ Lord PLUNKETT petitions from Baltimore, from Milltown, Castletown, Killgare, in the county of West meath, in favour of the Catholics. Lord KING presented a petition from Bath, praying for relief of the Catholics ; front the society of Quakers :near Cockermouth ; from Honiton, Devon ; from Guildhall, Sorry ; from GlaAtonbury, Somerset, and Blackburn, Lan cashire, to the same effect The Marquis of CARNARVON presented a petition from Rockwood Chapel, Norwich, praying for relief to the Catholics; and several others from different parts of the county to a like effect. The Duke of RICHMOND presented two petitions from the county of York, against the Catholic claims. Lord MOUNTCASHEL presented a petition from the Ministers, Elders, and Presbyters of the county df Antrim against the Catholic claims. He had heard that ninety-nine Presbyterians out of a hundred, in the North of Ireland, were opposed to Emancipation. The Noble Lord read a communication which was made to him, stating that the Catholics meant to evade the laws, suppressing the Roman Catholic associatians. He understood they meant to do this by changing their names ; and they considered that nothing was wanting on the part of the Brunewickers, but to. change their names also, if they wished to pro ceed with their views. This should distinctly state that these agitators were not satisfied. The Noble Lord verily believed that these measures would only make things worse, and for his own part he had made up his mind to pass the rest of his life in peace and quiet. (Great laughter.) Lord GOSFORD entirely disagreed with the Noble Lord. The Marquis of DOWNSHIR E knew those who de clared that there was a large proportion of the Protestants of Ireland who were desirous that the question should be settled, as it W3B now about to he done. Lord MOUNTCASIIEL presented several o►ther peti tions to the same effect. Lord FALMOUTH presented (in the absence of Lord Winchilsea) eleven petitions from parishes in the county of Kent, against further concessions ; ',mother from the Protestant Dissenters of Leicester, anp from a parish in Northamptonshire, to the same effect. Lord DARNLEY presented a petition from Craubrook in favour of the Claims. The Noble Lord read a letter stating that a petition had been got up to the contrary effecs in the most improper way, and which he supposed was one of the petitions the Noble Lord had presented who had just sat down. Lord FALMOUTH presented three petitions from the county of Cornwall, signed by upwards of 10,000, against the Catholic Claims. Lord CARLISLE presented a petition from the Clergy and Gentry of Beverly in favour of the Catholic Claims. Lord ROSLYN gave notice, that he should move, to morrow, that for the future Noble Lords who had peeitions to present should enter their names and their petitions with the Clerk of the House, and that they should he brought for ward in rotation, by being called upon by the clerk. The Duke of NEWCASTLE presented a petition from a pariah in Lincoln, signed by every adult in it but two, the one a pensioner, who was afraid to sign it, and the other was a person of no religion at all.—(Much laughter.)— The Noble Duke had been informed that an order had issued from the Government, that no prson who signed petitions against Catlislic Emancipation should be allowed receive pensions. The Duke of WELLINGTON—Name the depart ment ? _ _ _ The Duke of NEWCASTLE—I do not know it. The Duke of WELLINGTON—Have you seen the order ? The Duke of NEWCASTLE—No, I have not. Is it true The Duke of WELLINGTON—No.—(A laugh.) The Duke of NEWCASTLE then presented several other petitions against Concession. (LEFT SITTING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS Mr. HOBHOUSE brought up the report of the Coln in:ttee on the Vestry Bill of St. Paul's, Covent-garden. Mr. F. WILSON presented six petitions from several parishes in Yorkshire, against further concessions to the Catholics. Lord A. HILL presented a petition from the county of Down in favour of the Catholics. • Sir J. OWEN presented eight petitions from the county of Fernbeeke against the Catholics. Mr. JONES presented similar petitions from parishes in Carmarthen, and stated that it was most respectably signed, and lied been got up by no unfair means. He op posed the prayer of the petition. Mr. MUNDY presented a similar petition from Derby anil its vicinity. It was signed by 8,867 persons, several of where; were Comity Magistrates, and forty-three of them Clergymen. Lord GEORGE CAVENDISH said it was very easy to account for the number of signatures. The petition was divided iu fnur parts, and a part was pieced in each of four charters of the town, and some boys had boasted of having sigee4 eich part of it. • Mr. MiiDY, in reply, observed that he had had no direct communicatio; with the committee who were ap pointed to superintend the eigeing, but tiny were respect able men, end desirous of faireee: is Chu transaction. Thee requested to put certain questions to those persons signing cee to their knowledge of the subject, and whether l i t h e y bad s e gl i t e: e nv ether petition. Mr. ABERCROMBIE did not find fault with the Honourable Gentleman for deii;g his duty in present ing tree petition which had been put int!) his hands, but he did eemplain of the extraordinary means which had been taken all over the country to influence the minds of the people against the Caeiielies. He would call the atten tion of the Howe to a band-bill which had been circulated for that purpose, it was }tolled " cetholic torches," and stated, that in the time of the Spanieli Armade be Spanish ships contained Catholic collars, which were intentle:t to ' compress the necks, arms, and legs of Englishmen, till they confessed where their money was hid.—( Laughter.)— Thera were also Spanish bilboes and thimil.merews for the sante purpose. The hand-bill concluded by admonishing the Protestants, if they ,fished not to intrauce Catholic collars and thumbscrews into the ceetetry again, they would immediately sign the anti-Catholic petitie e . fle wished tbet some of those gentlemen who were in the liab;t of maleipg cpllections would collect as many as they could of the inflatneur e teeey prid ridiculous placards—(llear and laughter)—whit. 7 s wia . c poy distributing all over the country, in order to show the seete;4let men of other times the means which bad been resorted to to engage the People cf this country to support the falling cause of Ligon". Mr. lebti:l.sDY said a few words in explanation. Mr. H. GRATT4N said that it was quite right that the House should know in way some of those peti tioaa, which were miecalled Protest:la ketieions, had been got up. IP bed occasion a few days singe to go ;;.to a bookseller's shop, se e d observing a number of placards on the counter, he took up ceee 9f them, which referred to a piaci the county of Cavan, coneEning the basest and most groueed:ees falsehoods. Howeyer much Wet con tempt was excited he oefered to buy a quantity of them, but the nerson in attendance said that he could have whatev er num b er he pleased, free of any charge, as those papers were published fur ,gratuitous contribution, by the'Constitutional Tract Society. Several were made up in.parcels for transmission to the country, one of which was directel to Dover.—(The Hon. iMember here read several extracts from one of the placards, the object of which was to excite an unfavourable impression in the public mind, in re gard to the consideration of the Emancipation Question.) Another of them contained a most scandalous libel on the character of the Rev. Dr. Troy, concerning a-Commentary on the Protestant Bible imputed to that Prelate. The lion. Member said that he could refer the House to a de claration made by Dr. Troy, respecting the notes to au exhibition of the Rhenish Testament published in the year )562, in which he condemned the principles of those identical Notes, and which he had already dis claimed upon oath. He; (Mr. Grattan) contended that it was not in the power of the Brunswick clubs or their vile associates, to take away the character of that venerable, Prelate. Was it to be tolerated that those vile associations should arrogate to themselves the title of loyal Protestants —a name which they so little deserved? Mr. SYKES said that he had an opportunity of wit nessing the extent to which these attempts had been car ried. He was in a shop at Leicester not many days ago, :when a person came in and said, that if the Relief Bill .was passed the Duke of Wellington would be assassinated ; and if the Kin g put his hand to the Bill, the same person wished that the hand might be paralyzed for ever.—(Hear. ) . . Mr. TRANT, in reference to what had fallen from the Hon. Member for Dublin, declared that he knew nothing of the parcel of placards which was said to have be e n directed for Dover, but at the same time he had no hesi tation in saying, thit be thought it right the public should get all reasonable information on this important question, When attempts were made to put down the right to peti tion—(Cries of No, no !)—he would contend that such at tempts were made, by undervaluing the character and re spectability of the petitioners. Though they were in a mi nority, yet thay would fight to the lass.—( Hear, hear.) Sir JOHN BRIDGES said a few words, which could not be distinctly heard in the gallery. We understood the Hon. M.!mber to say that he never would lend his hand to a measure that must inevitably destroy the Constitution. Mr. WALLACE was surprised to hear any Gentleman in that House say that unfair means bed been used to put down petitionin g , he thought the experience of the last three weeks gave a sufficient answer to such a charge, for never in the history of Parliament had there been, in the same space of time, so many presentee!, or so much patience and attention paid to them—(her, hear),—but could it be supposed that out of the host of petitions sent to that House, that not a word was to be soid, if facts tend ing to show the manner in which they were got up were not to be noticed, bow could the House form an opinion as to the weight of credit they were entitled to ?—f Hear. ) Would Hon. Members who made the complaints deny that the inflammatory placards circulated had no effect upon the lower orders of the people, who by such means were induced to sign their names to petitions they could not possibly understand, there were some respectable names, no doubt, so all of the petitions, but who would say that the majority of them were as competent to decide upon the question as the majerity of that House.—(Hear, hear.)—No one snore respected the right of petitioning than he did, and he would he the last man to throw any obstacles in the way, but the abuse of the right tended greatly to injure its im portance. Mr. LEGE! KECK said a few words, which from the noise in the House we could not distinctly hear. After a few words from R. Colburn, Captain Munday, Mr. Abercrombie, and Sir C. Hastings, the petition was ordered to he printed. Mr. MUNDY presented five more similar petitions from places in Derbyshire. Mr. CROMPTON presented two petitions from the Borough of Derby in favour of the measures introduced by his Majesty's Ministers, for the tranquilization of Ireland. Lard G. CAVENDISII presented a petition from Leek, in Derby, in favour of the Catholic Claims. Mr. TREVOR presented petitions from to two parishes in Carnarvon, against the Catholics. Sir W.M. HEATHCOTE presented similar petitions from Basingstoke and Bodlin. Sir J. ASTLEY presented a similar petition from Greenfield and Westwood. (I.YPT SITTING.) POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BO W-STREET. Mr. Goldsmid, of Finsbury-square, was yesterday sum moned before Mr. MINSHULL, by William Woodland, driver of the cabriolet No. 120, for damage done to his vehicle by the negligent conduct of the defendant's coachman. Mr. MINSUL'LL having heard a geard a great deal of Lard swearing pro and con., dismissed the summons, leav ing the owner of the cabriolet to his remedy by action, a course which the owner declared he should most certainly pursue. A poor old man in the garb of a sailor was charged by a patrol with having been found knocking and ringing in a violent manner at the street-door of the Right Hon. Robert Peel's residence in Privy-gardens. Mr. MtNsiturt. asked the defendant, what he wanted with Mr. Peel, and why he persisted in creating a disturb ance at his doer ?—" I wanted money that is due to me," said the defendant. "I had a claim upon Government for 1501., and 20 years ago Lord Sidmouth, who then held the same situation which Mr. Peal now holds, gave me 20/. on account, and told tne to call at the Home-office in 20 years time, and I should be paid the balance. This was in March, 1309, just 20 years ago ; and so I travel led up from Harwich to get the 1301. which is due to me. I slept at Rumford last night, and was in London betimes this morning." " Have you ever been in a lunatic asylum ?" asked the Magistrate. " Yes," replied the defendant, " but was discharged from thence by permission of Lord Sidmouth. The 20 years that I was to wait for my money have now gone by, and so I have come to claim it." Mr. Al t:strum. declared his belief that the poor man was insane, and 'had worked up his mind to the belief that money was due to him by Government. The best thing that could be done with him was to order him to be received into some asylum for insane persons. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Yesterday after the usual business of the office was over, Mr. Dvxa and Sir GEo. FA =ANT, were fir a considerable time engaged in investigating the following distressing case, which came partly before the Sitting Magistrate, on Tuesday, in the following manner : Upon the above day a Mrs. Novell° entered the office, with a simple-looking country girl of the name of Matilda Parker, about 22. years of age, whom she accidentally met in a haberdasher's shop, inquiring for a lodging; at the same time the poor girl stated that she had no money, and was not acquainted with a single person in London ; that she hail been brought away front her own home against her will, by the captain of one of the passage-boats belonging to Messrs. Pickfnrds at Paddington. Upon last Friday she left her parents' house at Bromley, in Staffordshire, to go and visit an aunt residing at a pace called Couston, near Tantwortb. As she was to return in the course of a couple of days, she took no money with her. As her road lay along the canal, she continued to walk along, when she overtook one of the canal boats, the captain of which asked her where she was going ; she stated she was going to Couston, when lie asked her to ride ; she refused the offer, but finding that she was ignorant of the distance, he told her that if she walked, she would not reach the place of her destination by night ; he, however, succeeded in getting her on board, when towards evening she went down in the cabin ; shortly after the fellow, who is a mar ried man, came down and proceeded to take liberties with her, when she called out murder. Her cries brought the other fellow to the cabin, who, instead of assisting her, placed himself on a scat ; on which the captain took her up, and threw her down, and his companion ill-used her in the same way. Ott the following day, on going on deck, she attempted to jump upon shore, when the fellows swore that she should not go, and caught hold of her gown, and tore it in pulling her back, when she was very much beat by the captain. No further violence was offered to her person until Monday night, when they were within a few miles from Paddington. About six o'clock s h e w:-.ar;ti.i;;gflown in the cabin, when the captain came down, and renewed his ill-treatment. She resisted, and shouted out murder, as lung as she could , a4l on getting from the villain's grasp, she ran upon deck, and stated to the persons whom her cries had brought from their houses Oat had happened to her ; on which the fellow told them it was a iii---athen he up with his fist and knocked her down into the calm!, and ka'4l%s t her Ihady in various parts (many of which she spewed to the Magistrates ~, and thei2 kept her until the boat arrived at Paddington, when about four o'clock in the morning lie turned her ashore. "YER.—Is it possible that so much depravity can exist in these hosts ? Mr. Nanglo, the assistant Overseer of St. Gil es , a nd to which parish the poor girl has become one of the aa sual poor, informed the worthy Magistrate that, unfor tunately, it was almost a daily occurrence ; that there was hardly an unprotected female who went by any of these boats but that the was subjected to similar treatment; and that the boatmen, instead of a.csiating tilt poor woman, were mutually bound to protect each other. Mr. DYER-But, young woman, how was it that you did not make this statement yesterday ? I didn't like, be cause there were so many gentlemen present. The poor girl was again minutely questioned as to her statement, when she answered in such a manner as to leave no doubt d the violence. Warrants were instantly made out, and Ballard and Goddard were dispatched after the miscreants. The poor girl was taken to the workhouse. LENT ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. SALISBURY, MARCH 9. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.-FOOT V. OrTWAV. Mr. Sergeant WILDE stated that this was a❑ action fur the breach by the defendant of his promise to marry. The plaintiff was one of four orphan daughters, and lived with her brother. The defendant was a coach-maker, living in this town. In 1825 the correspondence, to which he should call their attention, commenced. 'I he plaintiff stated that he was ♦ery anxious for the time to come when he could call her his own ; and this correspondence was kept up till the commencement of the last year, the plaintiff living in the full expectation of becoming the wife of the defendant; he had, however, since married another. The defendant, amongst other things, had put on the record that he was under age at the time of making the promise. He regretted he should resort to such a shuffling excuse; but he (Mr. Sergeant Wilde) thought he should be able to chew to their satisfaction that, by letters subsequent to his becomiug of age, he had ratified his promise by more than one letter. John Sturgess, examined by Mr. ERSTINE—I have heard from the defendant that he came of age on the 11th or 13th of December, 1827. I know the plaintiff, she lives at Charlton, in this county. I knew her father and mother very well, they are both dead. Mr. Foot was a filmier, and farmed his own estate ; be, on his decease, left three sons and four daughters. The father died last, in the summer of 1823. The defendant lived some time in the same place as the plaintiff. The plaintiff's brother carried on the business of the farm. In the latter end of December, 1826, or beginning of 1827, she paid me a visit. The defendant saw her there. 1 received him as a friend at first, but afterwards as Miss Foot's suitor. I heard from himself that he is married. The following portions of letters from the defendant were here reed : " Bath, Sept. 2, 1825. "My dear Love,—l received your letter on Saturday. Can I help writing immediately, of bearing as I did in your letter concerning of hearing falehoods is my heart in paying addresses to another, my dear love? " Don't give way to such lying and deceitful tonguea, in this world God knows my heart to be true, or what would he the good to me to deceive you and keep com pany with another ! No ! rather than I would do such a thing I would be gulatined. " So from your true, constant, and admirinz lover, " RICHARD HAWKINS OTTWAY." " Bath, May 22, 1826. "My dear Martha,—l now sit down to fulfil my pro mise, hoping this will .find you well and happy, and in truth of love. I write to inform yon that we arrived safe home ; but I was full of grief and pain, and am to this hour in the tooth ache. I have been but one hour ago to the doctor, and I had it pulled out. Uuto this lam not able to work but this morning the 22d. " My dear Life, I hope 1 may say for ever, I Lave no heart for work, nor for nothing else, here in Bath, for I have set all my hopes and comforts to you from my heart, Iso waded on that sweet bosom of yours which I hope I never will be moved till death do part us if it is not E 0 never will have another as long as I am in this world. " (Please to take cure of yourself.) (By the return of post. )" " My dear Martha—Take this all from the bottom of my heart, and I hope this will come to the heart of true affectionate lever. " I hare got your hair and your sister's hair, and your likeness, I keep looking at it, and I have a great deal more to say to you more than pen ean possibly eon express. " My dear please to excuse this bad scrawl for I am in such pain owing to my tooth being pulled out. " So from your true absent and ever sincere lover. " RICHARD HAWKINS OTTWAY." " Bath. Sept. Ist, 1826. . . " My dearest love---I arrived safe to Bath on Friday morning at mix o'clock. After I left your brother Joshua I went to Frome with Thomas Foot. I left Lim at Frome at seven o'clock that night, went so far as Beckingto❑ that night, slept there ; I arose in the morning at four o'clock and walked to Bath. I did not (my dear Martha) like to walk by night, for it lightened so much that night my dear life I could not sleep all night, I thought so much upon you.

The Court ordered judgment to be recorded against him. WORCESTER, MARCH 10. Mr. Henry Sparrow, a young man of highly respectable appearance, was indicted for wounding Mr. George Cattle Greenway, with intent to murder him. As soon as the Grand Jury had found the bill, Mr. Sparrow surrendered to take his trial, not having been pre►iously in custody. Mr. Sergeant 111;ssaLL and Mr. WHITCOMER conducted the prosecution ; Mr. JERVIS (the King's Counsel) and Mr. RICHARDS the defence. Mr. George Cattle Greenway said—l am a solicitor at Warwick, and one of the Coroners for that county. My mother, Mrs. Greenway, and my uncle, Mr. Woodcock, are the owners of a clay-mine near Stourbridge. The pri soner rented this mine, and made fire-bricks from it, pay ing a rent proportioned to the quantity of clay that was raised. It was his duty to render an aecount to Mrs. Green way and Mr. Woodcock. I was directed by them to inspect these accounts, and I had called at the prisoner's house several times fur that purpose. The last time of my going was about half-part nine o'clock on the evening of the llth of November. I was shown into the parlour, where he was sitting with Mrs. Sparrow (his wife) and Mr. Thomas (his clerk). The man-servant announced my name, and the prisoner, in a rough voice, said, " let him come in." I entered the room, and he said in the same tone, " take a chair. I sat down and told him I wished him to appoint a time for me to see the books. The pri soner replied, " Mr. Greenway, your conduct in this busi ness disgusts me. I consider it dirty, interfering, and un dermining." Some further conversation took place about the books, when, as the prisoner would not show them, I rose to depart. Upon this the prisoner paid, " yea are drunk, Sir ; you are drunk, Sir." I replied, "it is Mae, Sparrow ; you know 'tie a lie. I know that you have been sued, and have had 20 applications made you for money." The prisoner said, " Francis Ruffoid, you mean." I said, " no matter who I mean, 'tie true ; and, besides that, I have heard of your conduct with regard to your father, and you are at Worcester, and at Birmingham, and not to be found." The prisoner thee said, in a very cool manner, "no one shall tell me I lie with impunity," and reached out towards the poker. I got to the fire as soon as I could, and our hands came upon the firs-irons about the same time. The Jury retired, and, after being absent more than three hours, pronounced the prisoner—Not Guilty. THE PORTSMOUTH MURDERS. APPREHENSION OF THE SUPPOSED MURDERER 0, MR. LANGTILEY AND ITIS TIOUSEICEEPEI. Powrsaroulor, MAUCH 10.—After the funeral of the unfortunate sufferers, which took place yesterday, Mr. Hunt acquired such information as induced him to pro ceed with all despatch to the neighbouring village of Por chester, about seven miles from hence, in order to appre hend John Stacey, under the following strong presump tive ev idence :—Some time after the funeral, Stacey, who is an out-door apprentice to Mr. Weeks, a constable, and a barber by trade, residing in Warblington-street, was observed to proceed into the country in an open chaise, with two girls of the town. The knowledge that his pay of 2s. 6d. per week would not allow of this proceeding, aroused suspicion, and upon application to his master, he stated that on account of Stacey's having a swelling of the hand, he was not enabled to work for the last two or three days,:but for the expense of having a chaise he could not at all account. Mr. Hunt then, accompanied by Box and Weeks, set off in search of and apprehended Stacey with the two girls, Anu Hawkins and Sarah Harris, at a house in Perches ter, and brought them to the gaol about half-past five last evening, where an immediate investigation took piece before Edward Carter, Esq. the Mayor, continuing until a very late hour ; the respective constables, in the mean time, were hurrying to different haunts and places • in search of corroborative proofs. The following has been learnt:— Not the least suspicion was even attached to Staeey, though he was the apprentice of the constable who first entered Langtrey's premises after the murder. The know ledge that Stacey was in the habit of shaving the de ceased twice a , week was totally overlooked, as was also the circumstance of his shaving him the Stiturday morn ing previous to the 'louder. It is stated that Stacey went on the Sunday of the murder, with a fellow shop-boy (John Conneymore), to Stacey's father's, in Charlotte-row, to spend the day. Stacey abseuted himself about five o'clock in the afternoon, returning about eight.—(lt is here to be observed, that presumptive evidence given before the coro neer jury, affirms that the murder was committed about six o'clock.)—Stacey and Conneymore slept together that night, and scent to 'suk next morning, continuing to do so until Thursday, when he complained of his hand being swollen, and that he could not shave. Iu the interim he had shaved many persons, and on one oeca.ion, when shaving a man, it was observed that a clue was found of the murderer ; he was now observed to he agitated, and cut the person's chin, who rebuked him for it ; but still there was no suspicion of him. About Friday he was observed to make free with his money, and on Monday was observed with two girls of the town, among the crowd who were witnessing the funeral. This led to his apprehension, when he instantly exclaimed, " I'm done," and went to hide himself in an out-house. A man of the name of Thomas Knight, a waterman, was i n co mpany with the girls. When searching Stacey's apparel, many pat is were found apparently bloody, and the inside of his shoes had the marks of blood. His arms betrayed that blows had been inflicted, and his knuckles appeared to have sustained injury. By the evidence before the coroner, it appears that a strong struggle had evidently been made by the housekeeper, Stacey is a large, heavy, looking boy, will he ?i years old neat June. A large clasp knife was found on the Monday after the murder under the Lion-gate, Foot-bridge, Portact. It was very bloody, and had some hair attached to it. The boy Councynrore asserts it wall Stacey's knife. The girl who before tire Jury stated that a man jumped over Langtrey'l pales, Was taken into a MOM where Stacey stood, surrotiuded with many others, and immediately I:e ir r . ete lvt. s c ta k t s e , - 0 i,,, oce „„, i t no w becomes a du ,lou ty lsvp.it t em o ioy e u n isr u i pointed out Stacey as the pere gr o iabo ta lf , fy,t t il i e ho m p u o r s d i e ti t v ., el l y vi a: e s s er s ts tar b e i y s s m b e ol l i it :i s i: t l,, h yc a m t otn a h re et e : o ,e r vv e he t i on returned to his father, at eight o'clock, he hurried through the house up stairs, his father following him, where they were in earliest conversation for sonic time, till Mrs. Stacey observed she wondered what they were about. Soon after this Stacey came down nearly naked, with a great coat thrown around hito, and sitting by the fire, the boy (Mis. Stacey being absent) heard a great slowshing of water, as if a great body of clothes was being tumbled about, added to which, the mother was teen washing his shirt. It is ascertained that the green coat he were ie stained wi dl a blood on the tail, u also the trousers, stockings, shoeo , hat. The boy also identifies the glove found upon premises.' Stacey's faller is aged 51. The two girls who &Nog' parried the younger Stacey to Porelleater are in went.—The examination will be resumed again this ° la. ' jog and to-morrow.
