CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. some time ago, leaving her fifty pounds per abnum, and she became acquainted with a gentleman who prevailed upon her to become his wife. They had not, however, been more than three days man and wife when every atom of furniture was seized and sold, and her husband disappeared on account of the persecution of creditors and the horrors of a prison. Her clothes were gradually deposited at the pawnbroker's until she was left with but very scanty cover ing, and without a farthi ng i n h er poc k et . Sh e t h eug h t that an appeal to the Chief Magistrate, who perhaps knew who her benefactor was, would yield her an opportunity of bettering her condition. MOST EXTRAORDINA.RY INVESTI- OLD COURT. In the course of yesterday two persons named William Peto and William Hughes were tried, the former for felo niously uttering a forged request for the delivery of goods, with intent to defraud Roger Peeke and others, and the other prisoner was indicted for uttering a forged order, with intent to defraud William Thomas Carr and others. CATION. This day was published, in 2 vols. Bvo. price 1/. 11s. 6d. AHISTORY of the LIFE of EDWARD the BLACK PRINCE, and of various Events connected there with, which occurred during the Reign of Edward the Third, King of England. _ _ The cases presented nothing of importance, but in the course of the evidence adduce on the trial of Peto, that given by the witnesses differed so much from the contents of the depositions, as to induce the Recorder to inform the Jury that the safest course' for them to adopt would be to acquit the prisoner. By G. P. R. JAMES, Esq. With some Observations on the third notice in the Athenaeum. London : Longman, Rees, Orme, and Co. Mr. Nobler_ asked the lady whether her husband had got hold of the property which had been left to her? She replied in the negative. Mr. nobler immediately supplied the lady, who seemed to he most forlorn and destitute, with means for present comfort, and gave her such advice as appeared best calcu lated to render her service.

The RECORDER observed that he bad often to remark upon the slovenly manner in which the clerks at the police offices took down the evidence of witnesses. By the 7th Geo. IV., chap. 64, magistrates were authorised to reject that evidence which they considered immaterial. Certainly there was no possibility of defining what was material and what was not. In the present instance, if the evidence given to-day was correct, and agreed with that given at the police office whence the prisoner was committed, then the clerk had left out that portion on which alone the prisoner could be convicted, and it was necessary that more attention should be paid to what witnesses stated. In the second case, and which was also sent from Guild hall by Sir Chapman Marshall, a similar occurrence took place, on which The RECORDER again animadverted very strongly in the same terms.

Yesterday Mr. Macpherson, bookseller, of Middle-row, Holborn, and Mr. Pickering, bookseller, of Chancery-lane, overseers of St. Andrew, Holborn, and St. George the Martyr, attended at this office, accompanied by their soli citor, and applied to Mr. BENNETT for summonses against defaulters of the poor-rates in the above parishes. Mr. BENNETT understood there was a dispute in the parishes relative to their right to receive the rates, and nqtil that was settled he would rather decline signing the summonses. The applicants then quitted the office. This day was published, in 1 vol.

THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY). CORN EXCHANGE. The arrivals of Grain reported this week are small, and the quantity of Flour is also inconsiderable. The gradual thaw has occasioned the buyers to decline purchasing. Wheat to-day is dull at the terms of Monday. Barley, Beans, and Pease remain as last reported. It is difficult to sustain Mon day's advance in Oats as the foreigners are expected to pay duty. There have been few transactions in Flour this week, at Monday's rates. A It R I VALS. Wheat.

RECORDER—I shall allow the prosecutor his ex penses ; but not Ward and Cooper (witnesses) ; at the same time Ido not intend by so doing to cast any imputa tion upon their characters. One of them had better stand up, and I will explain the cause why I refuse the expenses. Mr. Ward here entered the witness box, when The RECORDER said—You have set your signature to depositions when before the Magistrate which are quite the reverse of what you have stated to-day. Mr. Ward—l have given the same evidence on both occasions, but the clerk at Guildhall, when he had written the depositions, called us all together, and read what he bad taken down in sueh a magpie way that for my part I did not know what he had made me say. The RECORDER—Then why did you sign them ? Ward—l did it because I thought what he had written was correct. The RECORDER—It shows great neglect and careless ness in your not attending to what was read over to you. Mr. Ward—l am aware that it was wrong. The RECORDER—And of course you cannot have your expenses, for it is owing to the discrepancies in the evidence that the prisoner is acquitted. The witness thenfretired. The RECORDER cautioned the prisoner as to his future conduct, and observed that some alteration must be made in the present mode of taking evidence, otherwise justice would invariably be defeated. The RECORDER tried some other cases of no importance, and the Court adjourned at five o'clock. , MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, JAN. 3. Mr. Sergeant ANDREWS sat as Chairman, assisted by a full Bench of Magistrates, this being the first sessions in the new year, to dispose of the prisoners named in the calen dar, which consists of sixty-eight prisoners ; of which num ber 10 are charged with stealing, 7 for using threats, 3 for frauds, 17 for making a riot, 14 for assaults, and 17 as idle and disorderly. GAMING HOUSES.—THE KING AGAINST ROMEO FAUX AND OTHERS.—In this case two indictments had been pre pared against the present. The prosecutor had been only enabled to hold three of the defendants to bail. Mr. PRENDERGAST now applied on the part of these three, viz., William Sneed, Joseph Sherwood, and Henry Giddian, to respite the recognizances. The COURT refused to grant the application. SURREY SESSIONS.-TUESDAY. Several Magistrates assembled this day for the purpose of hearing and disposing of a variety of business connected with the county, and amongst them were the High Sheriff, the Members for the county, and those for the borough of Lambeth. Mr. Hedger was in the chair. Mr. SMALLPIECE, the Treasurer of the.eounty, presented his annual accounts, by which it appeared that, after the payment of the debts contracted, there was a deficiency of upwards of 1,0001. In order to meet this deficiency a penny rate was proposed and agreed to. THE PRISON REPORTS. The reports of the County Gaol, Brixton House of Correction, Guildford House of Correction, and Kingston Gaol, were read, by which it appeared that the prisoners confined therein were, with a few exceptions, in good health and orderly. A letter was read by the Clerk of the Peace from the Directors of the South Lambeth Water Works, offering to settle by arbitration the expences incurred for damage done to the boundary wall of Brixton gaol, occa sioned by the Company's works in that quarter. Some dis cussion took place on the subject, and the Court agreed to the proposition of the Directors. INTENDED COUNTY LUNATIC ASYLUM. Mr. BRISCOE, M.P., brought forward a motion for the appointment of a Committee, to inquire into the expedi ency of, the question of a Lunatic Asylum for the county. He was confident that the happiest results would accrue from the establishment of such an Asylum, and that it would be a saving of nearly 2,0001. per annum in the ex penditure of the county. Mr. C. BARCLAY, M.P., seconded the motion. The question as to the expediency of erecting a County Lunatic Asylum, was then referred to a Committee ; and, after the disposal of some other business, the Court ad journed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. An Irish girl, named Ann Hoirigan, was yesterday brought before the LORD MAYOR, charged with having de serted her two illegitimate children. One of the overseers of St. James's, Duke's-place, stated that the girl had called at the house of the supposed father of the two children at half-past seven o'clock on Monday morning, and left the children, who were twins, there. They were brought from thence to him, and measures were taken to secure the mothe'r, but the poor young woman gave herself up to the parochial authorities; and declared that she had committed the offence to save her children from starving. Mr. Hobler stated to the Lord Mayor that the defendant had on Monday called at the Justice-room in a very dis tracted condition, and mentioned to him that as the Either of the children had 'refused to give her the slightest contri bution towards their support she had, to save their lives, taken them to a place where he should be sure to see them, and, if he had the feelings of nature about him, to give them something to eat. She also mentioned that their fa ther, to whom she had been servant, and by whom she had been seduced, had with apparent willingness helped her to support them until within the last three months, during which period he had totally discontinued his usual pay ments. It was evident (Mr. Hobler said) that the girl had been actuated by the best motives in pursuing the course she had adopted, and that she had not the most distant idea of abondoning her children. The overseer stated that he was exactly of the same opinion. The LORD MAYOR—I dare say she did as she has done to preserve the lives of her children, and I have no doubt that the father has discontinued his contributions in conse quence of a new light that has been let in upon him on the subject of the new Poor Law Bill. How long did he help you to support them, and what were the circumstances that induced him to abandon them ? The girl—He gave me assistance towards their support for ten months, some times 55., and sometimes ss. 6d. a week, and I worked as hard as I could all the time. Ho stopped suddenly three months ago. Mr. Nobler—The Poor Law Bill sap that tho children must follow the settlement of the mother, and this poor helpless creature was born in Ireland. Her condition is most deplorable. The girl—The father of my children is a Jew, my Lord, LQIIP MOW—Let him up P 11111111494 WO as soot} as possihip : The defendant was then remanded till this tiaY, 4 young woman of latly-liko manners and appearance applied (after the Lord Mayor had left the Justice-room) for advice to Mr, 1101114:44, under rather extraordinary cir cumstances. She bad, she said, been when a child taken into the family of at. affluent gentleman who was well known in the city of London, and had been the intimate friend of her deceased parents, and under his roof the greatest pains were bestowed upon her education. Her benefactor died George leek was yesterday brought before Mr. CHAM BERS in custody of the Mendicity Society's officer, charged with attempting to obtain charitabl e c on t r ib u ti ons by means of fraudulent representations. The prisoner wrote the letters to support his mother. His father was an officer in the 34th regiment, and had afterwards filled the situation of landing-waiter. Mr. CHAMBERS said he must put a stop to the continued begging of the prisoner for some time, by sending hint to prison for a month. 19 10 12 3 LAMBETH- STREET. Yesterday, Mr. Ex-Sheriff Ward, who is also a magis trate for the county, waited on Messrs. HARDWICK and COMBES, to request their assistance in putting down that which he designated as a most Intolerable nuisance to his and other respectable families in the neighbourhood, namely, an unlicensed theatre. After some observations the magistrates desired Mr. Young to call on the proprietor, and request his attend ance at this office on Thursday. WORSHIP- STREET. Yesterday, Anne Kirby, of athletic form, was charmed with attempting a breach of the pea ce , by p u tti ng Mary Anne Herring in fear. Handley, the officer, who was entrusted with the war rant for the apprehension of the defendant, stated that he called on her that morning to execute the warrant. The defendant was in bed. Upon seeing her he directed that she should dress herself, and accompany him. The de fendant observed that it was impossible for her to move, as she had only the day before met with an accident, by which three of her ribs were broken. He asked her who was her doctor ? She replied that she had none. He then obtained the assistance of two female lodgers, who examined her, and who informed him it was their belief that nothing was the matter with her. To be fully assured he sent for the parish doctor, who reported that every rib was sound. He then ordered her to get up, stating that he would re main outside while she dressed. Having waited a quarter of an hour, he knocked at the door, when, obtaining no an swer, he entered. To his surprise, the defendant was not there ; be looked out of the window, and observed her nimbly jumping over the palings of the houses. Mr. Heriage, Chief Clerk—Notwithstanding her broken ribs ? Graves, another officer, on a former occasion, had a war rant against the defendant, and had a similar difficulty in securing her. The defendant was held to bail. CORONER'S INQUEST. A CHILD BURNED TO DEATH.—An inquest was last night held at Guy's Hospital, Southwark, before William Payne, Esq., coroner, on the body of Timothy Donovan, a boy aged four years and a half, who came to his death under the following circumstances : Catherine Donovan, the mother of the deceased, said that she resided in King-street, Deptford, where her husband was employed as a labourer in the Victualling -yard. On Friday last she had occasion to go down stairs to fetch a kettle of water, and left deceased and an infant in the room, in which there was a fire, but without either guard or fen der. On hearing a scream she ran up stairs, and found de ceased enveloped in flames ; she extinguished his burning clothes in the best way she could, and ran with him to the doctor,by whose advice she brought him to the hospital, where he expired on Sunday last. The whole matter, wit ness said, was purely accidental. The deceased told her that he had put the corner of his pinafore into the fire, and the flames caught the rest of his clothes. The Coroner and Jury said there was st great deal of cul pable neglect on the part of poor parents in not providing some kind of fire-guard as a protection to children when obliged to leave them in such oases ; a few iron bars, or even old iron hoops, would prevent such accidents in most cases.

REPRESENTATION OF RENFREW.----The chief topic of interest is the approaching election for the count y , which the friends of both candidates represent aq I . ; . l kcely to terminate favourably to their views. Sir john Maxwell will support the measures of Ministers ; and Mr. Houston will ally himself with the party of Sir Robert Peel. We have authority to state that, in accordance with a requisi tion most numerously and respectably signed, Sir John Maxwell has agreed to stand candidate for th e representa tion of the c oun ty a Renfrew, and that his address to the eloetor4 win lie circulated immediately throughout the county. We understand, from good authority., that Sir John Maxwell will be cordially supported by the brothers of the late Sir Michael Shaw Stewart, and that, although the deep distress in which the whole family are plunged by their unexpected hereavemont, may, for the present, deprive the worthy candidate of their active personal assistance on his canvass, yet they are most anxious for his success._ Greenock Advertiser.

Sir F. Roe, the Chief Magistrate at Bow-street Police office, has during the last fortnight been engaged in the in vestigation of the circumstances attendinc , a transaction of a most extraordinary nature, which had been represented to Lord John Russell by the Senora Josephine Carillo d'A borroz. Sir F. Roe undertook the examination by direc tion of his Lordship - , and for several days his most minute personal attention has been paid to it. The Senora having been called before him, he took the deposition from her, of which the following is nearly a copy. Some circumstances, with regard to names, &c., however, have been suppressed from prudent reasons : Josefina Carillo d'Aborroz Mahon d'Arturo.—l have been one month in London, having arrived by a Go vernment steam-ship at Falmouth, by which I had tra velled from Cadiz. On Thursday, the 15th of De cember, I quitted my residence, between three and four o'clock, without g i v i ng an y one any previousintimation of my intention to do so, and, accompanied by my ser vant, Francisca d'Acosta, I went in a cabriolet to the Regent's-quadrant. I directed the driver where to go, and on my reaching a house there I quitted the vehicle. I was about to knock at the door when a Spaniard, de cently dressed, who was standing there, came forward and told me the lady on whom I was calling was not at home, I and that she was gone into the city to visit a relation there. He gave the address to the cabman, and he then drove me to a house in the City, which Ido not know. I got out and knocked at the door, and asked for the lady, but the servant, a Spaniard, told me she was at another house, of which he gave the address to the cabman, and that she was waiting there for me. I was then driven on, and the cabman, after looking about, stopped at a house, which I have since seen, and which is No. —, Broad-street-buildings. I got out and knocked at the door, and it was opened by a young man, who said, in Spanish, the moment I asked for the lady, " I will deliver the message." He then went up stairs, leaving me waiting, but he returned directly, hastily, and shut the door, and at the same time I felt a hand place a bandage on my eyes over my bonn e t, w hi c h was f orce d b ac k, and a hand drew me quickly up stairs, a few steps. We then reached a landing-place, and there were then.some .more steps, then a turn, and again more steps, about 25 or 30 in all. There seemed to be two men, but I heard no voices. When I got up stairs the bandage was taken off my eyes, and I found myself in an apartment about 18 feet long ; a little bell had been rung. I observed the carpet was green and white, and there were two larga globes on a stand. The room was hung with black cloth, as well as all the furni ture, and there was a table in the centre, also covered with black. There were twelve candles burning with green and black shades round the light, twelve men with black tunics on, were seated, one opposite to each candle, and all had on four-cornered caps with black tassels, but the President wore a white one, and had white edges to his dress. The bandage was unloosened from behind, and I saw no one but those who were seated. The latter instantly exclaimed, in one voice, " Dios nos guarde !" I thought it was some fane. There was a large ivory crucifix on a velvet book on the table, and there was before each person a book boun;:i in red with gilt letters, similar to the four Evant- e li sts , commonly used in my country. The president tad a se cretary on his right, and on each side thtl bther persons, but none in front. The secretary took the book from under the crucifix, and wrote down all m; answers. Th ere was an inkstand, silver or plated-, with four bottles, placed near the secretary, Then was a small door on the left hand as I entered ; T stood opposite to it, and I saw two men pass, imme ,l 2:ately after the bandage was taken off. The president L'. i .one spoke, and always in Spanish. He said, " Swe'rxr by the Holy Catholic and Apostolic Faith, and 1 ".,y the Lord Jesus Christ, and our Lord the King, whom God preserve, to revoke all thou hest done against the loans of our lord the King, and swear that you were instigated by your friends to do so : and by what you do you will decide your own death and happiness eternal." At this time a servant, who had opened the door at first, and who stood by my side, held my hand on the book that was before the President, and he remained by my side the whole time I was in the room. He had a frock -coat, and under it I saw the handle of a poniard. I answered—" Mr. President, of a tribunal unknown to me, the temper of the wicked induces them to commit crimes unknown ; my life is in your hands this night. The oath you wish to administer to me I will not swear, because I shall not be able to keep it." The Secretary answered—" 'Tremble! for your life shall answer for all. In England we can be revenged, because it is a free country ;" and he added a threat of death, which 1. understood, because it was expressed in a manner common in Spain. The President asked me if I would swear to leave London immediately, and all my friends, and said I did not know that they were hurrying me on to the precipice on which I stood, that I was surrounded by traitors, and that if I did not promise all that they re quired, my father's life, the lives ot all my relations in Spain, and my own, when I least expected it, should pay for it. The President said I had destroyed a loan that was made for the King, and.fhat 1 was the most execrable and infamous of women ; that I was induced by to prevent the loan to the king, that I must use all my influence in the provinces and amongst my friends to get another, and that if I did not I should be assassinated, and should be in danger of death at every step ; that if I discovered the place, and what had taken plcae there, I should certainly be put to death. I should know the President, and, indeed, all the' persons present, if I was to see them, and also the servant. They spoke broken Spanish, and were English, or not Spa niards ; one wore spectacles, and one a glass to one eye. None had mustachios, and all their faces were unco vered in the usual manner. This lasted nearly three hours. At the end the President to,* my hands from across the table, rising from his seat, and placed them on the same book, and asked me to swear again as before, and not to reveal what had passed, though it were of little importance. I answered, that the life of the King and his children should be made responsible for my life, and that if they intended to put me to death to dispatch me quickly ; that I was in a country of freedom and jus tice, and that my signature should nerer be found in an inquisitorial tribunal. They then all called out, " Let her die" (Que 'littera), and all rose : and then the President said, " Sit still, it is not yet time." I then said I had no thing to do with the loans, and many other things I cannot remember. They also said, " 'This 15th of December, in famous woman, you sealed your fate, and sentenced your death." They again tried to make me swear, and they said that a malediction would follow all my steps. All who had been seated occasionally asked me questions. At the end the bandage was replaced by somebody from behind, and I was led, as I believe, several times round the room. At all events it was on a level, and not down stairs, and there was more space I walked over than when I came up first, and I heard a noise as if furniture was being moved.. Then I was led up stairs, and then down again to the door of the house, the person holding me by the hand, and I felt a wall on one side. At the bottom of the stairs the door was opened, the bandage removed, and I was pushed out. 'The servant was rather short and pale, had black whiskers, and was of a good figure. I noticed the house before I got into the cabriolet, and knew it again. Sworn December 23. JOSEFINA D'ABORROZ. It will be seen that this deposition was taken on the 23d of December. The Senora attended before Sir F. Roe on the 27th of the same month, when she made a second statement, which was also taken down in writing, and of which the following is a copy December 27.—Sines I was examined last I have re cognized the countcePAiee of one of the twelve persons who were in Broad-street. It was on Saturday in Regent-street, at half-past eleven A.M. I was in a hackney-coach, and observ:u a man about 29 or 30, alone. As soon as he 'saw me, he seemed to wish to avoid me, and went into a shawl.shop. I got out and followed him, and made pre tence to look at some shawls, and then he went out. I think I have seen him before, but I feel sure he was one of the twelve. On Saturday night, at the house of Senor —, I heard voices, I thought I recognized as having been in Broad-street. I did not mention this to the Senor." And in addition to this, a third deposition was also taken on the 30th December, in the following terms : December 30.—My servantA Francisca) on Monday saw a Spaniard, who told her that he would inform her of all the people who were at the house in the city, and that his name was —. The same man I saw in Regent street on Saturday ; lie promised to come last night to give the whole account, but he did not come.", Independently of the above extraordinary statement of circumstances made before Sir F. Roe, there was also a paper produced before the Magistrate, in which the facts of this most singular outrage were explained at greater length, and which had the additional recommendation of its having been written on the same day on which the cir cumstance was alleged to have occurred. It was taken originally in Spanish from the mouth of the Senora, but had been translated by a gentleman immediately afterwards. Sir F. ROE, after duly considering, determined rive lie in ' erdav up on investigating the matte r mare fully, tr . -1 con sequence caused the parties w h o , f rom fne Senora's state mentl he opeeiveti would, IN likply to be able to throw a fight up, he subject to brought befell . Among these s theiwner of the h o u se , w hi c h h a !en pointed out by th Senora, tog e th er w i t h a c l er k i n hi s emp l oyment. Th ese rsons attended b e f ori th e M ag i strate i n hi s pr i vate room Yesterday, at twelve o' c l oc k, t h e S enora , accompan i e d b y 4 interpreter being also in a tt en d ance . The owner of the house was fi rst ca ll e d i n , an d Sir r. ROE inquired of the Senor a w h et h er s h e recognized hie after having attentively con s id ere d hi s f ace for a short n fa o c r e a ,a s one of the persons whom s h e h a d seen ? Tll4 Sc.' time, said she could not recognize him. Sir F. ROE then addressed the person alluded te, .. I will tell you," he said, " the occasion of my sending. for you, and will afterwards put you on your oath, or not, as occasion may require. This lady (the Senora) is a Spanish lady, and she has made a complaint to the (overnment of certain transactions, which are alleged to 'nave taken place in the city of London ; of her being led into a house, and of her being there menaced •Ivith death ; many other threats of an equally serious nature were also held nut to her, wVela, if capable of being proved, would no doubt amount P:, a capi tal offence. Under these circumstances she has 'Claimed the protection of the English Government, and tb' e matter has been put in my hands by the Secretary of State for investi gation. I will now read to you the deposition which has been made by the Senora, and you will see that it is in your house that the transactions to which I have alluded, are alleged to have take n place." Sir F. Roe then pro. ceeded to read so rn'.74eb of the deposition as referred te, the entry of the hotrse, when The individual whom he bad addresFt!d interrupt e d him, and declared that it could not have occurred in liis house. He had lived in the same residence for ten years, and was known to many respectable merchants in the city. The number of his house corrosponded with that which had been pointed out by the witness, but he could positively state that no such event had ever occurred there. Sir F. RoE---For her and my greater satisfaction we will visit your blam e' and see if she c a n r ecogn i se i t again, and you wilt go with us. The person replied that he was quite ready pa go, and to allow every examination to be made. Sir .F. Ro E fartter rear a Portion o f the deposition, in which the globes were stated to be in the room, when he was again interrupted by the person, who denied that he ever had any globes in his house. Sir F. Rol—Where were you on the 15th December ? Witness--I was at home, very probably. I have three clerks in my house. Sir F. ROE —Were you in town at that time ? Wit ness—l was, and was most likely at home or on 'Chang e. Sir F. ROE.—At what tim e do your. clerks l eave busi ness ? Witness—At five or half-past five o'clock, except on post nights, when they are detained later. Sir F. ROE—Is Thursday night post-night ? Witness —lt is not. Sir F. ROE—Do you sleep in your house.? Witness— I do. My wife and five or six children are living there as well as I. Sir F. ROE—And do you usually dine at home ? Wit ness—l do every day. Sir F. ROE — Therefore, if this circumstance had oc curred between five and seven o'clock, you, would have been there, and not your clerks? Witnesa--I should. Sir F. ROE—Let the clerk be nosy called in. The Senora here interposed, ant/ explained, through the medium of the• interpreter, that, she had heard from the people in the neighbourhood dr a t the house belonged to the person who had been exam:ned, and everything that she had described had taken ,)lace there. Sir F. RosE—Yon l ' ; ',: ll b e able to point out the house? The Senora— , Yes The witness '4o:n had been exam i ne d d ec l are d t h at t h ere was another ',louse in the street which was a Spanish house, and which, had been recently fitted up and furnished. This ne suggested might lead to some discovery, or might tend to tl . ,row some light upon the subject. The clerk was now called in, and Sir P. ROE proceeded to examine him. He asked him, can you call to mind from any circumstance whether you were at home at your em ployer's house on the afternoon of the 15th of December? —lt was Thursday fortnight. Sir F. Ros—Can you say whether any extraordinary event happened in your master's house on the 15th of December. Whether you know if a lady came there in a cab and remained there three hours, and whether she was taken to the drawing-room, where a variety of transactions took place ? Witness—:-No, I have no recollection of any thing of the sort taking place. Sir F. ROE now asked whether the g irl Francisca D'. Acosta was i n atten d ance ? Ballard, th officer, who was in attendance, replied that she was not present, but her mother was there. Sir F. ROE. directed that the mother should be admitted. On her being introduced into the room, she said that her name was D'Acosta, and that the girl Francisca, who had been in the service of the Senora, was her daughter. Sir P. ROE Where is your daughter now? Witness —She is a lady's maid to the Senora, and she ought to be with her now. Sir F. ROE—When did you see her last ? Witness—l saw her for a littl e while on Sunday. Sir F. RoR said he would now ask the Senora whether she knew where the girl was ? The Senora said that she had been in her service, but that they had quarrelled, since which she had seen nothing of her. Sir F. ROE said he would now proceed to Broad -street, in order that the Senora might have an opportunity of in specting the house of the witness who was called before him when any doubts as to its identity would be solved. The Magistrate then entered a hackney-coach, and, ac companied by the Senora and the gentleman who had acted, as interpreter, and also by the owner of the house in question, together with Ledbitter and Ballard the officers, proceeded to Broad-street. On arriving there we were given to understand the Senora again pointed out the same house which she had before described as that to which she had been conducted, and in which the circumstances above stated were alleged to have occurred. On her proceeding, however, to the 'interior of the building, she declared that she was unable to identify the staircase or the rooms as those to which si►e had been conducted on the day mentioned, and stated. that she was induced to come to this conclusion from tkie fact that the furniture which was in the rooms being , of a different de scription to that which she had before wen. Sir F. RoE, notwithstanding this rstatement on the part of the Senora, conceived it to be I .ols duty to institute a diligent inquiry among the servants of the establishment. Having proceeded to examine th(.1.0, however, in a manner which he conceived best calculaV A l to lead to a discovery of the real facts of the case, he vas induced to believe that the Senora must have been. 'mistaken in the house which she had•poiuted out as that; to which she had been driven on the day in question, awl the Magistrate and those by whom he was accompa:►ied then returned to Bow-street, and the parties retired without any further investigation taking place. The affair, which for the singularity of its details is cer tainly unequalled in recent police annals, must, therefore, for the present 'remain a mystery. A circumstance not the least extraorilinary in the transaction is that of the unac countable, disappearance of the girl Francisca D'Acosta, of whom no trace can be discovered, and whose evidence would so materially tend to establish the facts related by the Senora, and set at rest any doubts to which her state ment may give rise. SUDDEN DEATH OF S. T. HERRINCHAM, OF BIiENTWOOD..-It is our melancholy task to announce to our readers the awfully sudden death of Samuel Taylor Herringhatn, Esq., a gentleman who was most highly esteemed, and will be deeply regretted, not only by the immediate circle of his private friends, but by the inhabi tants of Brentwood generally, who felt they were greatly indebted to him for his liberality and exertions in promot ing the erection of the new Episcopal Chapel in which the awful event occurred. The' lamented gentleman had been unwell for some time past, though no immediate danger had been apprehended ; on the contrary, he appeared to be fast recovering. He evinced a great desire to be present at the sacramental table on Christmas-day, though his me dical adviser did not altogether approve of his venturing out in the cold, and the Rev. Mr. Rhodes offered to gratify his wish by enabling him to communicate at his own house. He, however, proceeded to the'new chapel. On enterin it, he observed to the sexton that he felt unwell, and it w as with difficulty that he reached his seat at the further end, which lie retained but a few minutes, and being chapel warden—an office which he filled to the very letter, and in t h e most efficient manner—he proceeded immediately to the robing-room, as was his custom, preparatory to at tending the minister to the reading-desk. On entering the room he sank down in a chair, and was in a few moments a corpse. Medical assistance was procured, but all die efforts of skill were unavailing—the vital spark bad' - Bed from earth, to the presence of Him who gave it. The awful event was communicated to Mrs. Herringh am,. who was at the time with her brother in the church, and the dreadful nature of the shock which it occasioned may be: conceived. Considering the effect it would, have upon tl.ma congregation, the knowledge of it was prudently withheld till the conclusion of the service.—Count.v Press. From inquiries, says the PTCSSC., made of the com mission for the liquidation of the ‘lchts of Charles X., and. other particulars furnished 1P; one of the agents of the de ceased King, we learn !gat his debts amount to the enor mous sum of 24,0 in those of a ,000.

His assets amount to littl e more than 4,500,000.
