After a lengthened discussion the following form of peti tion was agreed ou :—" To the Hon. the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in Parliament assembled, — The humble petition of the inhabitants of Hounslow and its vicinity, ht public meeting assembled, humbly showeth, that your petitioners, being deeply convinced of the great importance to this empire of the army and navy for its peace, order, and protection, and that what ever lowers the self-esteem or alienates the patriotism of the soldier or sailor tends to weaken our defence and perils our safety, your pe titioners are grieved to find that the barbarous practice of flogging is still maintained as a mode of punishment ; your petitioners, more over, being fully assured that a mode of punishment so unmanly, brutal, and un-Christian, insulting to our common humanity, and so alien to our religion and our age, does exasperate and degrade, but never can amend the offenders ; we therefore hunibly beseech your Hon. House immediately to abolish the degrading and disgusting practice of flogging in the army and navy." - :, ; SALE OF THE MISSAL OF MARGARET OF ANJOU.— Yesterday a sale by auction of a collection of curious and rare manu scripts and books took place at Messrs.

The united cries of the horror-stricken passengers at length succeeded in stopping the train, when they were rescued from their perilous situation, and made their escape down a steep embankment. ' On the flame being extinguished the train proceeded at a slow pace to the next station, where the carriage was detached. ANOTHER EXPLOSION IN THE ROYAL ARSENAL. — WOOLWICH, AUGUST 7.--Yesterday morning, at eleven o'clock, a 24- pounder rocket exploded at the rocket sheds, Royal Arsenal, during the process of driving in the composition by means of a machine technically called a monkey. The explosion occurred front the same mould that the rocket exploded from on the previous day. The re port of the explosion caused hued eels of the workmen to hasten to tte rocket sheds, an alarm having been given that the shed was on fire, but in the course of a few minutes it was discovered that the rocket bad done scarcely any damage to the building, and the men then resumed their work. The man who was employed moulding the rocket, Jacob Steel, was severely burnt about the head and lace by the composition. He was ordered home by the surgeon, but it is expected he will be able to resume his work in the course of a few days. Low WATER AT PARlS.—Within the memory of man the waters of the Seine were never so low as at the present moment. They are only fifty centimetres higher than they were in 1719, which is taken as a bast!' for the water-mark at the Pont Royale and the Pont de la Concorde. The navigation of tire river is completely stopped for laden vessels. As the navigation of the canals will be stopped in a few days, if there is not a change in the weather, the river will, in all probability, be as low as in 1719, FRIDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE. ST.

NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Carlisle, Aug. 6. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WtairrmaN.) William Thornburn, aged about 30, and apparently a poor man, was indicted fur bigamy, committed at Gretna, on the Bth of November, 1845, by marrying Jane Jackson. Jane Little, the wife of Thomas Little, of Springfield, who was a blacksmith, and performed the ceremony of marriage, proved that she keeps a register of the marriages performed, and on the 6th of February, 1846, William Thornburn and Ann Sparks came to their house and said they were come to be married. Her husband asked them if they came of their own free will. They answered that they did. He then asked them if no person had a claim upon them, and they said no one had. He then asked the bridegroom if he was willing to take that woman for his lawful wife. He said he was. He asked the bride if she was willing to take that man for her lawful husband, and she said she would. He bid them join hands and declare each othor man and wife. They joined hands and declared themselves man and wife in those words. She remembered them coming quite well. The prisoner was the man ; she had no doubt of it. Cross-examined—Mr. Linton, of Gretna-hall, and Simon Long, a weaver, also married people. They were sober at the time. She saw nothing but what was sober and decent. No doubt there was some fee paid, but she could not re member what. That was the way in which the ceremony was always performed by her husband, according to the law of Scotland. Reexamined—She saw the same woman before the ma gistrate on this charge being inquired into. Thomas Little, the man who performed the ceremony, was called, and corroborated his wife. On being asked to state what took place, he said, "they had a manner of their own they worked with." There was not much whisky; there might be a noggin or a pint. They might have a glass before the.ceremony. He said he had repeated all that had passed, and he'd repeated nae main They said they were quite content and happy to be man and wife. They did not agree and they parted. He could not keep them together. He could marry them, but he could nae gar them live to gether. He said to them " You are man and wife for ever, before the witnesses here." Mary Sparks, the sistermb f Ann, said the prisoner and her sister left her father's to be married, and returned the day following, when the prisoner said they were married, and that they lived together six months as man and wife, and then left that part. Some time after her sister returned (having been recently confined) without the prisoner, whom she saw no more till in custody. He said they had been married by Little of Gretna. Jane Jackson, a poor servant girl, twenty-two years of age of Carden-mill, said she was married to the prisoner at Sark toll-bar, in Scotland, by John Murray. He asked if they were two single persons. They each said they were. He told them to take hold of hands, and they did so. (Nothing more could be got out of this witness as to the ceremony.) They had gone from her sister's at Carlisle to get married, and returned there. They lived together six months as man and wife. She had nothing but her half-year's wages when they were married. The prisoner left her at the Whitsun tide hiring. He told her he was going to hire. She also is now hired. He swore on his oath both to her and her mother that she was married to him—that he never was married to womankind. She did not wish to punish him, but just to be clear of him. She was quite willing to part from him. John Murray, of Sark toll-bar, said the prisoner and a woman came to be married on the Bth November, 1845. He gave his name William Thornburn, and the woman that of Jane Jackson. His brother and two other men were pre sent. They said they wished to get married, and witness answered they could if all was right. He then entered their names, &c., in a book, and told them to stand up, and then asked them if they were single persons. They said they were. Witness bid them join bands, and he asked the man "if he took that women to live together for better and for worse, so long as they were spared, before God and those wit nesses." He said he did. Witness then asked the woman the same, and she answered " Yes." Prisoner then put the ring on her finger, and witness said, "they had declared them selves before God and those witnesses man and wife ;" and they said " they had." Then they and the witnesses signed the register-book. Prisoner said he could not write, and he made his mark. Cross-examined—Witness is a mason by trade. He per forms a great number of marriages. At Whitsuntide (when this took place) he did not know how many; something less than half-a-hundred in a day. Mary Jackson examined—She and her husband, and the prisoner and Jane, were married at the same time; they went together for that purpose. Wm. Carruthers examined—He is a writer in Scotland, which corresponds to an attorney in England. The ceremony described by the witnesses, he said, constituted a valid legal marriage in Scotland. Cross-exatnined—The parties ought to be in proper posses sion of their faculties. His Lordship summed up, and the jury immediately re ,urned a verdict of Guilty. Sentence deferred. William Webb, aged 46, was indicted for burglary, com mitted at Carlisle on the 28th July last, in the house of Christ. Bulman, the Grey Goat Inn, by breaking a door, he being then in the house, having been before convicted of felony. Bulman, the prosecutor, said the prisoner came to his house on Saturday, the 25th of July, and asked for ac commodation, which was granted. He stayed till Monday night. On that night he went to bed at ten o'clock, and witness and his family went to bed at eleven. A little after two o'clock his wife awoke him. He listened- nod_ Itear(La went two or three steps down stairs, ana men Ja w a light in the passage. He had made a creaking noise in moving, and the light was, put out immediately. Witness asked who was there, but received no answer. He then asked his wife for a light and she brought one, and he went down stairs and saw the prisoner sanding in the passage, near the bar-door. Witnet , s asked him what he did there? He said he wanted a convenience. Witness asked him why he did not answer when be called out? The prisoner an swered that he could not. Witness then asked why he put out the light, but he made no answer. Witness told him something was not right, and he went down stairs, and looking where the prisoner bad been standing, he found two screwdrivers, some skeleton keys, a piece of wax candle, some lucifer matches, and a bag containing other skeleton keys. He called in the police, and then searched all over the house to see if any stranger was about the house, but they found no one. The bar-door was open. On turning over a mat there they found more matches, and there were marks on the money-drawer in the bar, which showed an attempt had been made to force it open. Before it there were drops of wax as from a candle, and also outside the bar-door. The policeman said he searched the prisoner at the sta- flow house on the 28th. He laid 1/. 14s. in silver on the desk, and said he had no more. Witness, however, found 1321. in notes, and seven sovereigns in a purse, between the skin and his drawers, tied under his knee behind. There were three 201. and three 101, and the rest smaller notes. Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN told the jury they must be satis fied that the prisoner broke and entered the bar with intent to take the money from the till before they could find him guilty. He then went carefully through the evidence, and the jury retired. In a short time they returned with a ver diet of Guilty.—Sentence deferred. NORTH WALES ClRCUlT.—Chester, Aug. 6. CROWN COURT.—(Before Baron Rot.Fx.) Mary Pialett, 27, and Joseph Pim!)lett, 31, were indicted for the murder of their male child, Richard Pimblett, by poison, at Runcorn. The former was indicted as the prin cipal, and the latter as accessory before the fact. There was another charge of murder against the prisoners for destroying a second child, and an indictment against the female for attempting to poison a third child. Mr. Trafford and Mr. Townsend appeared for the prose cution, and Mr. Temple and Mr. Yardley for the defence. Witnesses were then called. Ellen Chamberlain—l live in Runcorn, next door to the prisoners. They came to live there seven or eight mouths, ago, and I used to go and visit them occasionally. When they came to Runcorn they had three children, Richard, Thomas, and James. On Sunday, the 15th of March, I went into their house, and saw Richard, a little after eight in the morning. He was the eldest, and about 4% years old. Did not see anything particular in his appearance. About five o'cleck in the afternoon I saw him again. He was then very poorly, and I advised her to take him to Dr. Pye, the sur geon. She said she would do so. She went to Mr. Pye's, and I saw the child again the same night. He was then very ill and vomiting. The vomit was very frothy. I saw the child again on Monday lying on the sofa very ill. He was a little better on the Tuesday and Wednesday. On the Thurs day I saw him again, he was then very ill, and complaining of thirst, and the mother gave him water or tea to drink. This was in the morning. About five in the afternoon I went into the prisoners' house again. The child was then lying on its mother's knee, and appeared to be dying. I took it on my knee and held it there the best part of an hour, when it died. When the child died I• gave the body to Mary Rowlands to lay it out, and saw it several times before it was buried. About a month after I went to the coroner's inquest at Runcorn, when I saw the body of Richard Pim blett. About a month before Richard's death, Mrs. Pim blett said to me, " If I were you, I'd put my children into a burial club." I said they would not have my little girl, as she was a cripple. She said they would, as she was well in health. She then explained to me the rates of payment in the club, and that there were halfpenny and penny mem bers ; that Richard was a penny member, and the other two halfpenny members ; that the penny members did not go in till they were four years of age; and that if Richard died when he had been in the club a certain time she would have 5/. When this conversation occurred the three children were all alive. James died on the 6th of March, and Richard on the 19th. The prisoners kept a cat. I think they had it directly after I began to go into the house; they must have had it before Christmas. I have heard Alary Pimblett complain of mice, but never of rats; that was just before they got the cat. John Ward—l am the sexton of Runcorn Church. Re member James:Pimblett, a son of the prisoners, being buried on the 10th of March. The child Richard was buried a few days after in the same grave. Before I made the grave the male prisoner came to me and instructed me to take up the coffin of James, and sink it a foot deeper, so that there might be more room for the other coffin. James was to be placed at the top ; but I did not do so. Remember the coffin of Richard being disinterred. I took it into the hearse-house, and showed the body to Dr. Pye, by whom and another gen tleman an examination was made. The body was kept in the hearse-house for a day or two, when, by the direction of the coroner, it was buried again. Edward Pye I am a surgeon at Runcorn. On a post mortem examination, I removed portions of the msophagus and lungs, the heart, and all the viscera, except the bladder, and also one of the muscles lying against the spine. I placed them in a new cow's bladder, and took them home, and on the following morning again examined them. I began with the stomach, on which there was a yellowish cloudy deposit in patches, on the inner surface ; and on the dependent parts of the stomach still larger patches. There was a whitish powder embedded in the coats of the stomach, which I could scarcely scrape away, without taking a portion of the membrane. Before examining the stomach as I have described, I placed the contents in a glass jar. I then examined the larger and smaller intestines, where found the same yellowish deposit in patches as before. These patches were indicative of the presence of a mineral poison. George P. Mather—l am collector for the Liverpool Vic toria Legal Burial Society. The deceased Richard Pimblet; was a member of that society. ll e died on the 19th March. He beeame a full member on the expiration of sixteen weeks, when in case of death he was entitled to 51. He had been a member upwards of twenty-three weeks. I received a cer tificate of the boy's-death from the female prisoner throgb my daughter, and paid her 47. 18s. 6d. on the 23d of March. He had been entered in the club by his mother. On the 9th of March I had paid her 1/. 4s. for another child. Cross - examined—If the child in respect of whom the I?. 4s. was paid bad lived another month, the parents would have been entitled to 2/. 10s. Thomas Hornby—l am steward of the Weaverham Sick Club. The prisoner Joseph was a member. We pay 32. per quarter; and the parent is entitled to the expenses of the n l d received gave an burial of all his child ren under fourteen years of age. In March la t, last a o r c d e e r r t i f fi r ee oifsst.h toe lmdeathll. v . Whitley h t e c .) 11 .. a rd P Mr. TEMPLE then ros e t o a dd ress the jury for the pri hc soners, and, after a powerful opening, proceeded to examine the evidence that had been detailed. He commenced by adverting to the respectability of: the prisoners' circum stances as furnishing the first reason why they should not commit such an offence as that; to the fact of arsenic being purchased, if it were purchased a i t s all, without the slightest concealment; to the real name and address of the male pri soner being given, and witnesses in each case present; to the circumstances of the female prisoner having taken the child to the surgeoa on the first appearance of illness, and having drawn his attention to those very symptoms which it was alleged on behalf of the prosecution were indicative of the administration of poison ; to the testimony that these symptoms had been increased after the child had taken the medicine recommended by the surgeon, and which appeared, in consequence of some peculiarity of constitution, to have operated the very reverse of that for which it was intended ; to the fact of their neighbours having been sent for on the day of the child's death, and only in consequence of their remonstrances was the male prisoner induced not to send for the surgeon again immediately before its decease; to the fact that 51., the sum obtained from the burial society, would be barely sufficient to cover the expenses of interment, while in cidental evidence had been given of the death of another child, where the sum of 11. ss. was all the money That could be obtained from the club; to the uncertainty that must al ways arise is cases like this, where the case in a great mea sure must depend upon the deductions of scientific analysis; and to the probability (taking all the circumstances o' the case into account) that the poison, if it really had been taken, was taken by the child, who was nearly five years of age, by a mistake of its own. These points the Learned Counsel illustrated with great force. Several witnesses were called, who gave the prisoners good characters for kindness and humanity. The JUDGE summed up with much ability. The jury retired for a short time, and on their return found a verdict of Not Guilty for both prisoners. The other charge of murder was then abandoned, and the third charge was proceeded with. It occupied the Court until ten o'clock in the evening, terminated in a verdict of Not Guilty, and completed the business of the circuit, PROGRAMME. 1. Prometheus Chained .. •• Bendeman 2.

Sir,—l have hitherto abstained from all defence of my conduct with reference to the late court-martial and inquest on private Frederick White of the 7th Hussars, trusting that when the mass of false reports and distorted facts had been cleared away by time and inquiry, the good sense and feel ing of the public could not fail to do me justice ; but deli berate false statements made by a recogn i se d authority, such as are presented by Mr. Wakley's address to his jury, can not be slurred over without personal denial. I pass over the question as to whether flogging was the cause of the man's death. I leave that to be treated by surgeons in general and the Medical Times (vide Medical Times of Saturday, August 1). I pass over the question as to whether it was fitting and decent that Mr. Wakley, utterly throwing aside the opinions of the other uninterested medical men, should recommend the jury to abide by the single opinion of Mr. Erasmus Wilson. • I pass over whether it was right that even after Mr. Erasmus Wilson's discovery, it was proper that the body should be re-interred without at least giving the other me dical gentlemen an opportunity of seeing whether it really was a fact that such a change was there or not; and lastly, whether the most general mode of obtaining correct evidence on any point is to question and admit the evidence of the criminals themselves, as was done throughout, in the vast mass of irrelevant matter brought before the inquest. On all these points I say nothing, but leave them to the world and the medical profession to deal with, and pass at once to the broad statement made by Mr. Wakley, in his address to the jury, that in this case there had been a deliberate attempt to hold back that investigation due to the law, to the regiment, and to society. We will now see how far this statement is justified. On the morning of the 11th July, it was reported to me by Surgeon Warren that private White was in a state of danger, from an acute attack of inflam mation, that the progress of the disease was rapid, and he feared it might terminate fatally. I immediately desired Dr. Warren to report the facts to Sir James Macgregor, the head of the medical board, and on this report Dr. Hall was sent down. The man died that night. A post mortem exami nation was then made on the 13th, of which the following is a copy. [This document has already appeared in our columns.l On the receipt of this I forwarded it direct to the Adju tant-General. The ordinary course in the service is to bury men the second day after death, whereas this man died on a Saturday, and the application was made on the Monday to bury him. On the Wednesday following, or almost five days after his decease (and that in the hottest weather ever ex perienced in this country), the arrangement for his burial was made, as is usual in the service, by his troop, and an attempt is made to fasten a charge of misrepresentation and concealment on the authorities, because the troop sergeant, who bore the application utterly ignorant of A. a • ,;- ..411 UleU, pears to have been as rieltr tile k iu the opinion of other medical men. Still, to prevent any misconception arising from this statement, as I found there were various reports afloat, I sent over to Dr. Trimmer a copy of the medical certificate on the post mortem examination the following morning. It was during the period between the Saturday of his decease and the Wednesday of his burial that the speculation of public curiosity was attracted—not from any suspicions (as the co roner states) in the regiment as to the cause of the man's death, nor from any suppressed publication of the medical examination that had taken place, but from mischievous misrepresentations, for which I can scarcely be supposed answerable, as there were no circumstances regarding this man's death that could embarrass a commanding officer. It is quite clear that there could be no necessity for concealing it on the part of the " people in the barracks," and it is equally clear that the mystery which the coroner alleges to have hung round the report of this man's death when men tioned at the registrar's office, and to the clergyman, was a mystery that could be traced no further than themselves, and solely of their own creation. Nor am I aware that the inquest has elicited any facts, with the exception of Mr. Wilson's discovery, that the public might not have been in possession of bad they applied to the proper source. From the time of the post mortem examination, I further beg to say thatl placed no bar to the free communication between the soldiers and civilians. The usual ingress and egress to the barracks went on between -both parties, which would scarcely have been the case had I been anxious to suppress information. Before the inquest sat I desired Captain Thurley, the senior officer of my regiment, to wait on Mr. Wakley, and give him every information in his power, which was done. And further, I wrote at the same time to Mr. Wakley myself, to the effect that my most anxious wish was to afford the public, the coroner, and thejury, every aid in my power to assist their investiga tion—stated, although not summoned, I was there in readi ness, and anxious to answer any question that any member of the jury might wish to put, and requested him to read my letter to the Court. It, however, suited his purposes better to put it in his pocket; and not name it until the end of the examination of the second week, when he made casual mention of it. Mr. Wakley appears to think that I ought to have reported and made statements on the circumstances of the man's death, directly to himself and other civil authorities, and by no means seems to divine that my duty, as a soldier, was simply to give a full and clear statement to superior military authorities, and having done so, to act afterwards solely on their orders. Be this as it may, I trust that I have made clear to the public that there was no attempt at concealment on my part or that of the regiment ; and, therefore, that his statement on the opening of his address to the jury was utterly unfounded, and calculated to bias most unnecessarily the minds of the jury and the public at large—Your most obedient, (Signed) J. WHYTE, Lieut.-Col. 7th Hussars. Hounslow Barracks, Aug. 5, 1846. REMOVAL OF THE COURT TO THE ISLE OF WIGHT. PORTSMOUTH, 7.—This afternoon, at twenty-five minutes past four o'clock, her Majesty, Prince Albert, the Royal Family, and the Queen of the Belgians, arrived at the Royal Clarence Victualling Establishment, en route for Osborne House, Isle of Wight, where the Court will sojourn for about three weeks. Mr. C. Stovin, the general manager, and the chief officers of the South-Western Railway Company, accompanied the train to Gosport, which made the passage in the usual time, two hours and a quarter.

It being quite low water, their Majesties and the royal party embarked in the state barge at the Clarence-stairs, and were steered by Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence to the royal yacht, which left at a quarter to five o'clock for East Cowes (under salutes from the Victory, Platform Battery, and the Contest, at Spithead), where it arrived about six o'clock. His Majesty the King of the Belgians will come down to morrow. His Majesty will leave the Claremont station of the South-Western Railway at four o'clock, r.m., and will return to London on Wednesday, on which day their Majes ties will take their departure from Woolwich for Ostend.

" How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health full threescore years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, fer they tell of matters everyliving crea ture able to understani ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality piomulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all, by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the Ilk e advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation )f our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations.

LONDON- THE MOORS.-GROUSE SHOOTING. - It hal been the frequent suggestion of several Gentlemen, con stant patrons, that a SHOOTING JACKET and VEST, made of the same kind of Llama Cloth as used by them in the Registered Paletot, but hi calours more suitable for the purpose, would give much satisfaction ; such have been prepared ; and the Jacket and Vest together will weigh but 16 ounces. There will also be a variety in thicker substances, but, for the extreme heat anticipated on the moors this season, those described will be found a perfect luxury in comparison with others. They will also be found very useful as a Fishing Cote, and other such purposes ; but it is necessary to observe that they can only be had in London, of H. J. and D. NICOLL, at 22, Cornhiil, and the chief warehouse, 114, Regent-street.
