The average price ot'Brown or Muscovado Sugar, the pro duce of the British possessions in America, computed from the returns made in the week ending October 13, 1846, is 32a. 34d. per cwt. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of October 16.) SUGAR—To-day the market presented a firmer appear , ance for all kinds of Colonial and Foreign Sugar, the home trade manifesting a stronger desire to get stocked, and mer chants being less disposed to sell. "eat India Muscovado was in excellent request for all purposes; holders obtained improved rates, and equal to those of this day week for all qualities—at auction 134 hhds 32 trs of Barbadoes were however chiefly taken in above the value. R E FINED.— - A stronger desire has been manifested by the home trade to purchase Relined Sugar this week, and the supply at present not being large, they have been compelled to pay rather higher rates for all descriptions. Wet lumps have been less in request, and prices declined to 595. The difference between file yellow West India and standard lumps is only 9s per cwt. The consumption of Refined is yet very large, and pikes are lower than they were at this time last year. Mannertus.—This afternoon the quantity offered at public sale was 6,402 bags; there was a stronger desire inanitested to operate, and the whole sold at full prices, indeed in same cases the rates obtained were rather higher: fine yellow fetched 52 , , good 48s 611 to 50s, good middling 47s 63 :o 48s, middling 454 to 47c 91, low 43s Gd to 41s 63. tine brown 42s 6d to 43e, geed 40s to 41s, ordinary 37s to 37s 6.1, grey low to middling 433 to 46c, good to tine 47s to 493, washed 41s Gd to 453 6i, and syrupy 3Gs to 43s Gd.

Foreign is not cheaper, but only a moderate business has beil - n done ; 28 bags of red Bahia at public sale fetched 335 to 34s per cwt. Nixie.—This afternoon 5,189 bags of Madras Rice were offered at public sale, and the chief part sold, in consequence of merchants lowering their prices Is to Is Gd per cwt. SAGO.—A good demand has ` ex but no farther ad vance in the value has taken place, although the supply at market is not large ; 614 bags at caution were sold at 36s to 878 Gd for tine small pearl, and 34a to 3t;s for good.

Smarrs.—The principal feature in the Rum market this week has been the Government contract for 100,000 gallons of Rum, half East and half West India, the whole of which has been taken by Messrs. Lemon hart and Co., of London street, at 1-16th under 2s 2d per gallon proof strength, and which is a low price compared with the position of the market. There has been a good demand for all descriptions of Jamaica Rum, and the rates paid have been rather above those previously current; 300 puns having been sold (luring the week 33 to 36 per cent over proof of fair and mid quality at 3s 4d to 3s Gd, good 3s 8d to 3s 10(1; 34 to 36 over fine 4s 43 to 4s Gd, a 2 per cent. smokey quality 3s 3d. line 45 40 to 4s Gel For Leeward Islanct further adva nced rates being asked ope rated against business, and the sales for the week are only 100 puns at 2s 531 proof strength, and fine brown ditto 2s 6(.1.

A fair business has been transacted in Demerara, and 3s 21 to 3s 4d paid for strong. Madras Rum of proof strength is worte is 10 1 / 2 d to is lld. Istano —To-day during the progress of the sale 1,455 chests were withdrawn; 629 chests have passed the sale. The very large quantity withdrawn from the sale during the last four or five days, ( which leaves only 2,567 chests to pass the hammer) has had the effect on the biddings, which were brisk this day, and prices show an improvement on the rates we have quoted lately of 23 to al per lb tor Bengals. Madras, however, remains neglected at from the last sale's price: to to advance, while Kurpalis are in fair demand at from 23 to 3,1 advance. The quantity bought in is 150 ches s. Of 16,119 chests which have now passed the sale, 8,693 have been with- drawn, 2,573 bought in; leaving 4,853 actually sold. SALTPETI:E.—To-day there was a good demand for Rough, and the parcels offered at auction, amounting to 3,073 bags of Calcutta, were all sold at full former rates. (AL —Although there are sellers of Linseed Oil at a re duction on former prices of 3d to 61 per cwt, still the home trade have operated with caution on the spot, and few parcels were taken for exportation, 33s 3d to 24s 6(1 per cwt have been the rates accepted. For forward delivery there has been little passing, and prices have fallen to 24s 9d to 25s per cwt. The Crushers are evidently inclined to sell as the sup ply is large; the consumption, however, continues to be good, and greater than last year, whilst the article is cheaper than at that time. Rape Seed Oil has been only iiilimited request, and prices are not so firm. Olive has been in ex cellent request, and holders manifest firmness. Cocoa Nut is still in short supply, and, being much in request, prices are rising. Palm has been in excellent request, and is held firmly. The arrivals of Fish Oils have Leen to a small ex tent only dining the week, whereas the deliveries are still improving. Prices are lower than at this time last season by 40s or 505 for Cod, but higher by lOs to 30s for Seal. For Southern they are much about the same as that time, but are lower for Sperm. Southern is wanted, and previous advanced rates are fully supported. TALLow._There is still a strong desire evinced by the home trade to get supplied with Russian Tallow, the supply continuing to be small, and the deliveries increasing ; fur ther advanced rates have been compelled to be paid on the spot by chandlers and soap makers; indeed, the market has been nearly cleared, and 47s 9d to 48s per cwt . are the prices paid for new Petersburgh Yellow Candle. Of old there is scarceiy any remaining unsold. For for Ward delivery large contracts have been entered into at advanced rates. Of Town Tallow there is not much to be had—it is greatly wanted at the advanced rates of 46s 6d to 47s nett casts; it is, however, still cheaper than any other sort, and the consumption the greatest. The parcels of other kinds of Tallow on offer have met with eager purchasers at further advanced rates. SALES OF RAILWAY SHARES BY AUCTION.—(TIIIS DAY.) .

GREATER AND LESSER Sias.—Dr. Brisbane says that when he was in South Carolina, one of his Baptist underwent a church trial for a very serious offence. This Baptist brother bad been the means of separating a slave husband and wife for ever. He had been importuned not to do it—to sell them both to one master, and not wring their hearts with the agony of eparation ; bt.t he said he " would see them both in hell first !" lie was brought up before the church, and tried, for what, think ye ? For the inhumanity of sundering man and wife ? No ; but for using profane language ! His spiritual advisers and co-workers took no thought of the crime of parting what God had joined together, but they were very much horrified at the profane expression used by their brother!—.Enianci puler. DREADFUL CATASTROPHE.—FALL OF THE NEw BRIDGE AT ORTIIEZ.—On Tuesday last, the 6th inst., about twenty workmen were occupied in completing the centre of the arch of a new bridge in construction over the river Gave. It was the day of the great annual fair, and a great number of peasants were climbing over the rafters, some out of curiosity, some to avoid the circuit by the old bridge of Queen Joan. It is pro bable that the weight of so many persons pressing on the lately finished masonry was the cause of the acci dent, which occurred at noon, when the bridge gave way with a thundering noise, heard distinctly at nearly half a mile distance. Seven bodies were dug from amongst the ruins in the course of the afternoon ; and several persons, mostly severely wounded, were carried to the hospital. It is supposed that the number of vic tims to this calamity is not short of thirty. NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS.— Yesterday, the follow ing accidents were admitted into the wards of the Lon don Hospital :—The first case was that of William Webb, aged thirty years, who, whilst employed in load ing a cart with grains, at Abbott's brewery, Bow, East Middlesex, slipped, and fell therefrom, and the horses and the fore w heels passed over his body, and, he had received a severe lacerated scalp wound, one of his arms was broken, together with his shoulder bone, both jaws were broke, and several ribs fractured. Not the slightest hopes could be entertained of recovery. The second case was that of John Warner, a carpenter, aged 32 years. He was employed at the wharf f the 'l'horneley Coal Company, at ltatcliffe-cross, Lime house, and was cutting a large piece of timber with an adz,-, when the axe glanced off and lodged itself between the ancle and in,tep, nearly severing the foot. The third case was that of Charles rage, aged fifty years, who, when going along the Lltonstone-roatl, Essex , ' with a cart loaded with hay, was knocked down by another vehicle, and the wheels p a s se d .over an d b ro k e both his legs.

S A POLICEMAN '..ARTIED BY 1119 WlFE.—Elizabeth Wood, wife of Benjamin Wood, City police-constable 526, was brought before Mr. Alderman Gibbs, charged with stabbing her husband. City police-constable Davis stated that on Wednesday afternoon, about two o'clock, he heard that Woad had been dangerously stabbed, and had consequently been taken to St. Thomas's Hospital, and he accordingly went to Wood's house, in Talbot-court, Gracechurch street, and saw the prisoner, who said, " If you come up stairs I will tell you all about it ;" and she then said that she and her husband had had a quarrel while at dinner, and that her husband having threatened to knock her down, she threw a knife at him, which she had in her hand at the time. Her husband stooped down to pick up the knife, and she then saw a stream of blood flowing from the neck. She called out " Murder !" and her husband went to Mr. Smith, the surgeon. The knife was produced, a small pointed table knife. James Roots, police-constable 577, stated that while on duty in Gracechurch-street, about two o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, he saw a cab at Mr. Smith's door, and a mob of people round. On going to ascertain the cause, he saw Wood, who was in uniform, get in, and observed blood flowing from a large wound in the left side of his throat. Ile got into the cab, and accom panied Wood to St. Thomas's Hospital, who held all tt.e way a large lump of lint to the wound. He told the cabman to drive fast, as Mr. Smith told him to make all the haste he could, as the wound was likely to preve dangerous. Alderman GlBBS—Prisoner, would you like to say anything ? Prisoner (weeping bitterly)—No, I would rather not. Alderman Genns—l have here two certificates, which compel me to remand you for a week.—Remanded. GUILDHALL. CURI3US CHARGE OF BIGAMY.—Mr. William Witt, described as a surgeon-dentist, was placed in front of the bar, having been out on his own bail since the last examination, charged with committing bigamy under the ollowing extraordinary circumstances : It appeared, on the last examination, that in the year 1828 the prisoner married a female named Emma Ma tilda Murphy, with whom he had lived about two years. Mr. Witt got into difficulties, and was thrown into the Fleet Prison, and became acquainted with a terson named Earle, who was likewise in difficulties. Mrs. Witt was likewise in the Fleet ; but, as it was asserted, in consequence of her and her husband not agreeing. she left him, and went off to Quebec with Earle, since which the prisoner had heard nothing of her until the present time. He again married, on the 19th of June, 1841, a female named Elize Ann Hill, with whom he had about 5001., but she was also obliged to leave him about five months after, in consequence of similar ill-treatment to that which the first wife received. Mr. Earle had lately returned from New York, and having made some inquiries, at Mrs. Witt's request, as to whether her mother was alive, and it being ascertained that the prisoner had married again, and the knowledge having been received by the second wife's family that Mrs. Witt was still residing at New York, the present proceedings were taken by them. However, the case was adjourned until to-day, for the production of Mr. Earle, who was ill at the last exa mination. Mr. lladdlestone with Mr. Hobler appeared on behalf of the prosecutor, and Mr. Ballantine with Mr. Wontner for the prisoner. The evidence taken at the examination was then read over by Mr. Teague, the chief clerk. William Earle, of New York, deposed to being pro prietor of too theatres in that city. He knew Mrs. Witt when in the Fleet, and afterwards, he supposed about a year, resided in some lodgings with her. On the Bth of June, 1832, tiey departed for America. She was alive on the 19th of June, 1841, the time defendant was married to his a- coed wife. Ile was we 11 known both in America and here, and if proper inquiries had been made, Mr. Witt would have ascertained whether his wife was alive or not. When he left New York on the 22d of July she was then alive. In 1831 or 1832 he was in trouble. Cross-examined—Had not come over to this country professionally, for the purpose of engaging actors or actresses. He was at Liverpool. but it was at the re quest of the Mayor of New York, for the purpose of consulting the Mayor of Liverpool, and other influential parties, for the purpose of establishing a mutual plan of protection, by establishing American policemen at Liverpool, and English officers at New York, to carry out the principles of the international treaty. He was once tried at Neweate, in 1822, for stealing a 50/. bill, and senterced to be transported, but was immediately pardoned on its being diecovercd that he was the victim of a conspiracy. Ile took Mrs. Witt from want and wretchedness. He also was instrumental in getting Mr. Witt released from the Fleet prison. He did not tell the Mayor of Liverpool, nor any one else, that he was come over on a visit to the Queen. He only brought over a petition for the purpese - of constructing an asylum for poor people. While in London, Mr. Witt never made any attempt to induce his wife to go bask to him, but, on the contrary, encouraged her. By Alderman WooD—Was he aware that you were living with her? Witness—He was. I did not instigate any one to take these proceedings; on the contrary, I am tin unwilling witness, and was subpreaa( d here. Eliza Ann hill, the second wife, deposed to being ill treated by the prisoner, who said he only married her for her money. He also told her under what circum stances his wife had left him, and she declined marrying him until he had made the proper inquiries as to her being dead, which lie pretended to de, and produced the affidavits of two persons, who asserted that she died about six years since. About a fortnight or three weeks since she heard from the' first wife's mother that she was still living, and her family instituted the present proceedings. Mr. Ballantine, in defence, animadverted in strong terms on the conduct of Mr. Earle, and left it to the Alderman to say whether the evidence adduced was of such a credible nature as to induce him to tend the pri soner for trial. Alderman WOOD, after consulting with Mr. Teague, the chief clerk, said that in a case like the pr, sent, fraught with cruelty on the ono side, and very objec tionable conduct on the other, he was unrolling to place implicit reliance on Mr. Earle's evidence. And then the question was, whether Witt had used sufficient diligence in trying to learn whether his wife was aline. He had heard the purport of an affidavit which had been made by Mr. Eccles, the son-in-law of Mr. Earle, to the effect that she was dead, and under those circumstances he should adjourn the case until Saturday, for the pro duction of that gentleman. Mr. Witt was then allowed out on his own recog nisances, to appear on Saturday. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. THE CASE OF MRS. LOMAX.—A benevolent indivi dual who had seen the case of Mrs. Lomax in the daily papers yesterday sent a letter to Mr. Hardwick, dated from Cheltenham, anti signed, "A Friend to the Dis tressed," enclosing a 51. note for the use of Mrs. Lomax. The money was handed to Mrs. Lomax, who expreased herself in grateful terms for this timely assistance. Mrs. Lomax said she had seen some very undeserved insinuations thrown out against her in a letter bearing the signature of her father-in-law,- General Lomax, but, as she believed, really written by another person. The letter insinuated that she was not Captain Lomax's wife. To place the matter beyond all doubt, she begged the magistrate to inspect her marriage certificate. Mr. 11.eniewecx looked at the papers produced and fonnd them to be documents authenticating the marriage of the applicant with Henry Lomax, one of the eons of General Lomax. Mrs. Lomax said she had no disposition to conceal any one circumstance of her life. She readily admitted that she had lived with Captain Lomax for some time before she was married to him.. The marriage took place with the knowledge and approval of the General some time ago, and she had not only received presents herself from .General Lomax, but the General had promised to assist in defraying the expenses of the education of her little girl. She had experienced nothing but kindness from General Lomax, and General Lomax had uniformly expressed himself well disposed towards her, as his letters to her would show. She had done nothing to forfeit General Lomax's good epinion,eexcept the hard necessity which had driven her to make application for assistance to the parish in which she lived, and the publicity which this application obtained through the papers. Mr. Ilinewecie thought the app'icant could not fairly be blamed fur having under strong pressure of actual distress taken the only step within her power—namely, that of applying for parish relief. Mrs. Lomax said she had written some letters to General Lomax, previously acquainting him with her distressed stete, but these letters had never reached th e General, they having, she feared, been intercepted. It was her belief that the General would have done some thing for her, and would have allowed her a porti on o f the stipend he gave to his son, had it not been for the interference of her brother-in-law. As the General had refused to give her any assistance, and as she had no prospect of receiving any portion of the money allowed to her husband, she feared her only resource was the workhouse. Mr. HARDWICK said it was certainly a sad alternative fur a person who had been accustomed to move in the better classes of society ; however, he would see, when the necessity absolutely arrived, whether it was not pos sible to persuade the parish authorities to make some rather more suitable arrangement in her case. Mrs. Lomax thanked the magistrate for the essentia notice which he had bestowed on her case, and then let' the Court. sentenced respectively to six months' imprisonment and seven years' transportation. The prisoner, who was recognised by the pzlice as an old offender, was fully committed for trial. LAM B E 7'H. Mary 'Shepherd, a well-dressed spinster, was charged before the lion. G• C. Norton with being drunk and in capable of taking care of herself. James Bradley, 42 L, derosed that between ten and eleven o'clock on the night before, he found the prisoner in the Waterloo-road, in such a state of intoxication that be was obliged to take her to the station-honse. Mr. NORTON—Did she make any disturbance? Wit ness—No, sir, she was pretty quiet, for that, Mr. NORTON (to the prisoner)—What are you; how do you get your livelihood? Prisoner—l'm a dress maker, your worship. Mr. NORTON—HOW came you to get so intoxicated as to be incapable of taking care of yourself? Prisoner — The fact is, your worship, that I had been taking my work home into the Strand, and my shoes being rather thin and unsuited to such a night, my feet got very wet, and fearing the consequences of a serious cold, and per haps being laid up, I took a couple of drops of gin, and it some way or other overcame me. Mr. NORTON—WeII, in my time, I have heard of various excuses for getting drunk, and I must say that this is not the worst.—(Laughter.) Tlie night certainly was eery damp, but I think you might have avoided taking so much of this gin as to reduce you to such a state ot intoxication. I hope, however, that this, as you appear to be a decent person, will be a caution to you for the future. Prismwr —lndeed it shall, sir. Mr. NunToN-4 sincerely hope so. discharged. You are now THAMES. EXTENSIVE PLUNDER.—George Stoddart, a yourg man about 24 yeas s of age, was charged with plundering his employer, Mr. David Le Bentillin, to an extent at present unknown, but the property and moneys imme diately recovered amount to nearly 1401. The prisoner, being observed by the police carrying a box which they suspected to contain stolen property, was detained and examined, and a quantity of goods identified by his employer were found in the box. Va rious sums of money were also found in bags belonging to the prisoner, as also a bank book of the East London Savings' Bank, with acknowledgments for 301. paid in up to August 23, 1845, and a letter to the prisoner from his wife, which, however, had no bearing upon the case. In answer to Mr. Pelham, who attended for the pro secutor, Mr. Le Bentillin said that the prisoner's salary last year waS only 351. He had be: about five years in his service, with an annually-increasing salary. Mr. Pelham said he would not carry the case further that day, and the prisoner, who declined saying anything in his defence, was remanded for a week. SINGULAR DISCOVERY OF A ROBBERY COMMITTED FOUR YEARS AGO. During the last week a transac;ion, which for four years has been enveloped in myst, ry, was brought to light in rather a singular manner. In August, 1842, a Mr. John Browning posted a letter at Huthin, in North Wales, containing a bank note for 201., one for 101., and a Post-otlice order for 1/. 18i. 6d. It was addressed to his niece, Miss Sarah Browning, 15, Summer -street, Navigation-street, Birmingham ; and he, in a few days after, being astonished that no acknowledgment of its receipt was made to him, wrote to his niece on the matter. It was then discovered that the letter had not b en received ; and although lie communicated with the Post-office authorities, and forwarded the dates, amounts, and numbers of the notes, of which he had made a ine inorandum at the time he posted the letter, and even put on the hail of the lel. note his initials and the date, no trace of the letter or its contents could be discovered. The matter thus remained in mystery until Tuesday last, when a 101 note was sent from the Bank of England to the authorities at the General Post office, as one of the notes which had been contained in Mr. 13rovvning's letter. A rigorous inquiry was immediately instituted, when it was discovered that the note had been paid into the bank of Messrs. Spooner and Attwood, Birmingham, on the 19th of September last. On that day Misses Jordan and Schofield, milliners, High-street, sent money and an advice to meet a bill amounting to 141. is. 61., consist leg of a 54 note and the rest in cash. A man named Henry Ivatts, who had been a letter-carrier in 1842, but had been discharged for some act of insubordination e and who was in the habit of going message s for them, took the money in question to the bank. He came that morn ing, as he had been requested to do, to go to the bank; but Miss Jordan, having occasion to go out, went in stead. In a few minutes after she had gone, Ivatts came to the shop, and finding that Miss Jordan had taken the money, he ran after her, overtook her, and went to the bank himself. Mr: Edwards, the clerk, took the money, which then consisted of a 10/. note and some silver, and, as usual, marked the note. It was then sent to London, and discovered to be one of the missing notes. Miss Schofield having been waited on regarding the matter, asked Ivatts about it, when he said that he had found the note in New street,. on the Wednesday of Wolverhampton races, and that wishing to have it changed, lie took the Si. note and 5/. in cash from the bag in which she sent the money to the bank, and substituted the note in question. Ivatts was then apprehended, and brought before the magistrates (R. Spooner, Esq., M.P., J. James, end Thomas Beilby, Esqrs.), at the public office on M-tntlay. Mr. Spurrier appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Harding for the defence. The case was gone into at considerable length, and the note fully identified. The prisoner had always borne a good character, and it ap peared that Stnniner-street was not in his district, al ►hough it was stated all the letter-carriers sorted the letters in one room. Tho case was remanded till Thurs d cv, when Ivatts was fully committed to the assizes. He was, however, admitted to bail, being himself' bound over in 100/, and Captain Leary (under whom Ivatts had served for twenty-six years), and Mr. C. Purcell, Nel son-street West, in 50/..each.—Biriningitam Journal. cn A lIGES AGAIN ST Mr. W. EVENS, MASTER OF THE STONEHOUSE WORKHOUSE. Durihg the past ten days an investigation has been going on - at the Loyal Hotel, Plymonth, before John T. Graves, Esq., Assistant Poor-law Co mm i ss i oner , i n t o th e conduct of Mr. W. Evens. who for sixteen years past has been the master of the Stonehouse Workhouse. The charges were made by Lieut. Warr en , o f S tonc h ouse , an d were of a very serious character, as will be seen by the following letter, which was sent by the Assistant Com missioner to Mr. Evens:— " Totness, Sept. 29, 1846. "Sir,—The clerk to the guardians undertook to me give you notice of the in qu i r y I pur p ose to Ist of October, at two o ' c l oc k, P.M., a t world he tha h t o h id e on n t the Royal Hotel, Plymouth, into certain charges pre ferred against you by Lieut. Warren. "You are accused of having ill-treated Wm. Horswell, his wife, and child, while they were in th e wor kh ouse , and also of having by ill -usage accelerated the deaths of three men, named Eddy, Dodridge, and Aish ton, who died in the workhouse. " I think it will be desirable that the medical officer of the workhouse should be in attendance on Thursday afternoon, an d should have in readiness any books which may throw light on the cases of the above-named persons. " When the case of the complainant has been investi gated, if' you should require time to prepare your defence, or want summonses for witnesses en your behalf, I shall be prepared to give favourable consideration to any ap plication that you may desire to make on those heads. "I a m, Sir, your obedient servant, " JOHN T. GRAVES, "A sistant Commissioner." " Mr. W. Evans, Master of_the Workhouse." The case has been undergoing investigation from time to time down to Saturday last, when it closed with the defence of Mr. Evens. The inquiry was not in open court, though the Commissioner permitted the press to attend, on the understanding that the case should not be published till the whole of the evidence had been gone through. William Horewell stated, .I am a scrivener, or ac • countant. The letter produced, containing the charges against Mr. Evens, was written by me. I have been in the East Stonehouse Workhouse four times altogether. The last time I left was in November last. I went in in August. I was in a very bad state of health when I went in. The treatment I had whilst I was in the house was such as a sick person ought not to have. I was dis charged as incurable from Exeter Hospital in June. When I came into the house Dr. Perry considered that I was in a very bad state, and ordered me wine. Dr. Perry saw me at my daughter's, and recommended me to go into the house, and I consented, thinking that I had but a short time to live. I expressed a wish to Mr. Evens that my wife and sister should stay up with me, because there was no one to assist me in and out of bed. Mr. Evens said it was not a fit place for women, and there was a woman in the next room who would bring me my medicine. This woman was a pauper upwards of 70. I had an abscess forming. I told the doctor of it, and he ordered me linseed meal. Did not get the linseed meal for five days. That caused the abscess to break on the eighth day, and I was ill great pain and never slept. I complained to Dr. Perry, and he said the linseed m ea l s h ould be had. Th e first day the nurse (Salter) said the doctor had not put the order on the book; afterward.; that thera was none in the house. I complained to the master, but he , turned a deaf ear to it. I had a seizure in my left leg at the same time, and was not able to move it, and could not get in or out of bed, and I curlew:Lined to the master of it, and he s did there were men enough to do it. I heard Mr. Evens repeat edly say I was a great expense to the parish. On the 16th of May, 1846, I wrote to the master from the Cor nish ward, in the Devon and Exeter Hospital, request ing him to send me up shirts. The shirts were not sent. I pledged my great coat for five shillings, to buy two shirts. There was a shirt sent. I was sent back from the hospital Icy the waggon. This was in June, a very wet day. That was tlie forerunner of the abscess. I came to Plymouth by a covered waggon , open at both ends. I h a d not a great coat. I said , when told to g o t o the waggon, " this is my death warrant." The doctor visited me eery they during the five days I had not the Poultiee. I complained to him every day. I saw Captain Fanshawe, the Chairman, during the five days. The house committee visited me during those live days. I cannot say that I complained to the chairman or the visiting committee about the poultices. When I became better I made complaints to the house committee on Monday, but on Thursday I found the doors locked that divide the male wards from the female. I could not get to see the board. Mr. Evens knew I wanted to see the board. I told him that I expected to be called, but I was not, The complains that I wanted to make was not being allowed to see my wife, who was ill. I never afterwards complained. I considered it useless. No notice will be taken of what a pauper says by the board of guardians. I never knew the board refuse a hearing to a pauper. Never said to Captain Toby "I have no complaint to make." William Tatem , who had been an inmate along with Eddy, corroborated the statement of the first witness. WORSHIP-STREET. John Richards, a young man, about 19 years of age, was placed at the bar for final examination, charged with stealing a purse and a quantity of silver from the shop of Mr. Lord, a perfumer,in Church•street, Haekn(y. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor's wife that while seated in her parlour on the afternoon of Mon day, the sth inst., her attention was drawn to a sti=pi cious noise in the shop, and on looking up she saw the prisoner running out into the street. He was intently pursued by her shopman, who had almost overtaken him when he was suddenly stopped by a lad who told him that his mistress desired his immediate return, as she had lost nothing ; but on reaching the shop he found that the contents of the till and a purse of the value of 10s. had been stolen. Having accidentally heard that two lads named Flynn and Ricketts had been apprehended for committing ,a similar robbery at Dalton, ho came to this Court on Monday last to see if he could identify them, and immediately recognised Ricketts as the person who had delivered to him the fabricated message which facilitated the escape of the prisoner. He had no sooner made the discovery, than the prisoner himself entered the Court, furnished with a written testimonal, setting forth the unimpeachable honesty and respectability . of the prisoners then under examination, and witness in stantly seized him, and gave him into custody. Tho two thieves for whom he displayed such a lively interest had since been tried and convicted at th© Old Bailey, and OCTOBE Henry Perry, medical Officer of the workhouse;' was next sworn. lie remembered the case of Eddy. Ho was admitted to the house on the 6th of July, 1844, and continued under medical treatment until the 24th of the same month, when he required no further attendance. January 2d, 1845, he was again brought in and treated for paralysis. He was in' a very weak state. On account of his defective sight he thought picking oakum would certainly have been improper work for him. Witness's apprehension was that he was not so employed. Recol lected a person named Dodritige being in the house. Was called to attend him on the 8d of October, 1844. His com plaint was asthma. He was placed on thg half dietary list till December, when having rallied, ho was, accord ing to his own request, placed on the ordinary house dietary, which he continued until the Bth of January, 1845, when he died. Believed he was in the male sick ward. Did lot recollect his working in the coal-cellar. Cannot recollect seeing him in the boy's sleeping-room. Believed llorswell was in the male sick ward, and the garret was just over where he was. Did not remember Dodridge's removal to that ward. 'Thomas Smith and James Hodge (since deceased) attended to the sick in that ward, and were occasionally assisted by Thomas Heflin. and Richard Wills, and in some instances he had kriown the late porter, Thomas Hands, assist in the sick wards. Limbered a person named Ashton being in the house. He was decidedly insane, and very much excited. Recommended his removal to the work house in consequence of finding him unprotected at his own house. His insanity was of the kind called mania, and was not furious. I was informed it was produced by reverses in business. Witness ordered a strait waisteeat to be put on him when he was obstreperous. Observed rnt-!-ks at the angle of his mouth. On inquiring into the cause he found they had bean produced by inserting the spoon in his mouth with a- view of giving him some nutriment. He had no apprehension that there was any unnecessary or improper force used on the part of the attendants. His arms were secured to the sacking of the bed to prevent his injuring himself. A variety of additional evidence having been taken, Mr. Evens proceeded to make his defence. Ile first alluded at length to the charge of neglect brought by Horswell, and then added that with respect to accelera ting the death of Eddy, Aishton, and Dodridge, he could solemnly declare he never heard any complaint of ill-usage towards either of them, until he received the Assistant Poor-law Commissiener'S letter of the 30th of September, the day before the inquiry commenced at the Royal Hotel. After the conclusion of the inquiry, The Learned Commissioner went to the workhouse, and saw the rooms as they were described by the wit nesses. The evidence will be placed before the Commissioners at Somerset House, who will shortly give their decision. DESECRATION OF THE DEAD. s r. GILES'S WORKHOUSE. Since the dreadful disclosures of Enen Chapel down to the recent desecration of certain City church-yards, and the. removal of cart loads of human remains to the Eastern-end of the metropolis, nothing so humiliating or in detail so revoking has occurred to equal in horrors the proceedings which are now going on in the pauper burial-ground attached to the St. Giles's workhouse. It appears that in this parish it has been found neces,ary to enlarge the workhouse, and to add an infirmary, a dis pensary, a casual ward, waiting-rooms, bath-rooms, and other buildings for the accommodation of the inmates, who for many years had suffered much. That in order to effect these objects, a number of temporary offices, covering in the whole apiece of ground at the rear of the building containing about half an acre, have been re moved, and the whole area, extending from the back of the workhouse to a lane called Short's gardens, laid bare. The plot of pound thus exposed is surrounded on all sides by the dwellings of the poor ; who inhabit this locality in perhaps greater numbers than any other part of the metropolis. Many of these miserable tenements overlook the . spot, and so dense is the population that - several thousand poor families reside within the circle of one hundred yards round it. After the materials of the old buildings had been removed, the workmen in the employment of the builder, Mr. llolland, of Duke. street, Blooms bury, commenced digging the foundations for the new buildings, and while so engaged found at the depth of about four feet from the surface some bones, which were carted away with the rubbish, and deposited in the vicinity of Battle-bridge. Assoon as the circumstance of finding the bones was represented to the clerk of the works, he immediately waited upon the governor of the workhouse, and also some members of the board of guardians, but no directions were given to cease dis turbing the remains. The workmen, therefore, continued to prosecute their labours, when it soon became apparent the ground was filled with coffins, and the decomposed bodies of human beings. A sight of this appalling cha racter had such an effect upon the workmen employed. to clear away the revolting substances, that some of them exhibited the greatest reluctance to interfere, and only complied at length from the fear of losing their employ ment. While the task of exhuming the remains was proceeded with, the board of guardians held two or three meetings, and after some deliberation, and an in spection of the ground, came to the determination to ex hume all the bodies, and have them removed to the St. Giles's Cemetery, St. Pancras-road. 'These instructions are now in the course of being complied with, anti it is calculated that within the last fortnight the remains of twelve hundred persons have been removed. The e,qlins appear to have been wedged together, and hi many cases fourteen have been found in one grave. A apse, of ground, measuring about eighty square feet, has been -already excavated, with the intention Of removing all the coffins that may be found. The earth is found to be in some parts herd and gravelly, but towards Short's-gardens it becomes loose and damp, and in those parts the progress of decomposition has been more rapid and complete. To the north, and within a few feet of the workhouse itself, the soil is compara tively firm, and here a most appalling sight was pre sented. Owing, it is supposed, to the _peculiar proper ties of the soil in this place, the coffios were found to be in a better state of preservation, and to have re sisted, to a greater extent, the mouldering effects of time. They could not, ho ever, be removed in any thing like a psrfect shape, and parted asunder when exposed to the air. The bodies they contained were found to be still solid, the hair upon the eyebrows and eyelashes clearly discernab!e, and every feature entire and perfect as when first deposited. The flesh, however, had turned into a white substance, resembling to the touch, and not unlike in appearance, the common mush room or toad-stool. The coffins containing those bodies were found at depths, varying from four to nine or ten feet. In some instances, the mouldering flesh clung to the head, abont the jaw, and round the scalps, while the teeth remained white and firm. The brain could also be traced; and in some c ases even the viscera were clearly distinguishable. These bodies appeared to have been swathed in coarse linen shrouds as several fragments of the latter were fund. The accumulation of those ghastly remains in a few hours became so great, that coffins or rather l arge b oxes, h ast i ly put together , and-formed of three quarter inch deal, painted black, were got in readiness, into which the remains of about thirty persons were packed indiscriminately and forwarded in a hearse to the cemetry at St. Pancras road. The re mains of about twelve hundred persons were thus re moved, a much greater number however still remain, and at this moment the loathsome place is strewn with skulls, many of them in the state described, bones of all kinds, and fragments of broken coffins. The pit exca vated has already yielded the remains 0f,1,200 persons, including the skeletons of children, and judging from pre sent appearances the workmen employed have not more than half finish e d, if so muc h, t h e i r frightful task. Por tions of several coffins, with fragments of their ghastly occupants, can now be traced within thirteen or fourteen incites of the surface, while in other places the piles of coffins have been compressed by time, according as the wood rotted, an d now appear lying close to each other, as if some external pressure had been applied. Some of the able-bodied paupers from the workhouse were employed coll ec ti ng th e f ra gments. It is evident from the appearance of some of the coffins, that the occupantsdid nut in e ver y case belong to the humbler c..aeses, as some of them have pieces of cloth attached to theta, and are richly studded with nails, and contain the marks of having been once decorated with plates. The dates, however, are, unfortunately, erased by time e with the ex ception of a few. In one portion of the ground the workmen found as many as 30 or 40 skeletons, all thrown indiscriminately together; none of them bore the appear ance of being recently deposited. Several copper cohts, pipes, and other things, were also found. The coins were very much corroded, but one of them is in suffi ciently good preservation to exhibit the dew 1200 in legible characters. Independently of the outrage upon decency and proper feeling which is involved in these proceedings, it is to be apprehended that very fearful results to the sanitory condition of so densely crowded a neighbourhood will follow the opening of the loathsome pit now exposed to view. The indignation of the people in the immediate district has been audibly expressed. A great majority of them belong to the sister country, and, with that respect fur the dead which they are nationally characterised for, have viewed with feelings of indigna tion the proceedings. It is calculated that an immense number of coffins and their contents have still to be re moved. COACH ACCIDENT.—About eleven o'clock on Sun day night last an accident happened to the London mail coach going north, on the most dreary part of Shap Yells, in Westmoreland, which might have been attended with the most serious and fatal consequences. It appears that the road over Shap Fells, especially at the Hucks brow, is in a most dangerous and shocking bad state of repair, there being large deep holes in it at several places, and, indeed, it is so b a d th at t h e ma i l coaches cannot get up the brow in due time, and consequently two extra her.,es are put to, and a postillion, to assist the coach up that long steep hill. William Abe!, th e postillion, on arriving at th e t o p of the steep, told the driver, that, as the night was so very stormy, and the re-ids so very heavy and bad, he would go on with his pair with the coach to Shap. However, the coach had not gone far, when the horse on which Abel was riding f,ll, the other four fell over him and them, and one of his thighs was broken, and he was otherwise most dread fully mangled and crushed, but the coach was not thrown over. It soon afterwards proceeded on, but before it ar rived at Shap the pole broke, and some of the passengers were much alarmed. The coach arrived at Carlisle upwards of four hours behind her due time. FATAL COLLISION ON THE TH,lMES.—Wednesday afternoon, about four o'clock, a coal barge called the Gertrude, was passing down the river, a short distance from London-bridge, *hen she ran with a violent crash foul of a sailing barge loaded with sand, known as the Opponent, The jerk occasioned by' the collision pitched the steersman of the former into the water, and al though every possible exertion was made to save the poor fellow's life, he floated away with the tide and dis appeared, IRELAND. DUBLIN, OCT. 13.—The Clare Journal contains the following:—_ "DEATia FROM STARVATION.—On Friday, a poor woman called the widow Conlan, residing at Clontoohee, near Dysart, in this county, proceeding to Ennis to purchase 6d. worth of Indian corn for herself and family, fell down at the distance of about 150 yards from her own house, and almost immediately expired, through exhaystion, arising from want of food. We fear that this is not a rare ins'ance of effects arising from the existing distress. In different places, within the last few days, the people assembled in masses, and dug out for their own use the potatoes belonging to some of the large farmers." Sir Burton Macnamara has addressed the following letter to Mr. T.abouchere, the Chief Secretary:— " Tromroe, Oct. 2. " Sir,—lt is with extreme regret that I have to report to you, for his Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant's infor mation, that a number of men come to my residence yes terday and stated they were in a state of starvation. and that they required food and employment, or that the consequences would be serious. I told thun that the necessary forms were gone through to obtain them re lict, and that I anticipated in a few days the-ir condition would be relieved ; I exhorted them as a friend not to resort to acts of outrage, and to bear in mind that if they got a week's provision by plunder it would tend to many weeks' starvation, and that no power on earth could justify their proceedings. I advised them to re turn home, which they did. " On inquiring, I find all these people belong to the village of Miltown, near which there are three magi str4tes residing, and that they tried to get the poor people of this parish to accompany them, which they very properly refused to do, notwithstanding their desti tution cannot be exceeded by any people in this county; and I trust that their patience and good conduct will be duly appreciated by his Excellency, and that the pro mised relief may not be delayed. " I have the honour to be, Sir, yours truly, "B. MACNAMARA, Captain R.N., J.P., " County of Clare." MEASURES FOR EMPLOYMENT. The Cork Examiner, which arrived this afternoon, contains nothing remarkable on the subject of the dis tress. In regard to the measures for employment, that journal says " We are glad to understand that the contracts for the college works will be immediately advertised. Instruc tions have been given, we.understand on the best autho rity, for the commencement of the Glamire road and park works. The \Vide -street board this day issued precepts for the taking down of the houses in Globe-lane and White-street. All preliminaries will be settled in less than a fortnight, when an abundance of employment will be afforded." THE PRESENTMENT SESSIONS. The first extraordinary presentment sessions for the county of Dublin took place at Tallaght yesterday. The sum of 10,0001. was voted for various useful works, to be apportioned in electoral divisions, in accordance with the Lord-Lieutenant's circular. The Recorder (Mr. F. Shaw) stated that Mr. Ed ward Byrne, a farmer, of Whitestown, had handed in a proposal to him for the attentive considera tion of the meeting, viz , for the draining of land and the improvement of a water-course in hi's (Mr. Byrne's) uwn land. According to the regulations set forth in the letter of Mr. Labouchere, - a work of this description could be presented for, upon the pro prietors giving an undertaking that the money so pra t ented should Lo charged exclusively on the lands. This Mr. Byrne was ready to do. This proposal was agreed to. RELIEF ASSOCIATION.—APPEAL TO THE ENGLISH PUBLIC. I find the following in Saunders's News Letter of this day. I have heard some objections as to the peculiar construction of the committee, and generally as to the manner in which the association has been got up. " At an adjourned meeting of noblemen and gentle men, held at No. 16, Upper Sackville-street, Dublin, on the 12th day of October, 1846, the Earl of Roden in the chair. " Pr.)posed by Lord Farnham ; seconded by George A. Ilamilton, Esq., M.P. : " Resolved—That at the present emergency it is de sirable to re-organise the • Relief Association' of 1831, fir the benefit of Ireland generally. That a committee be appcinted with the view of carrying on the operations of the Association, to be designated the Managing Com mittee of the Relief Association for the Destitute Pea santry of Ireland; and that the following noblemen and gentlemen be appointed the trustees and committee, with power to add to their numbers : " Trustees—The Earl of Roden, Lord Farnham, Lord George Hill, W. D. La Touche, Esq., and George A. Hamilton, Esq. " Committee—Lord Farnham, Major Adams, 'Richard Armit, Esq., Alexander Boyle, Eiq., Henry Bewley, E: q., William Edington, Esq., James Ferrier, Esq., Rev. William Fausset, key. John Gregg, Robert R.

H. Verschpyle, Lieutenant-Colonel S. White, M.P., J. Wilson E,q. Secretaries—Lord George Hill, Rev. C. 11. Minchin, and 11. G. Porter, Esq. " Resolved—That the committee be requested to make an appeal to the English public and to the community at large, and e-pevially to absentee Irish proprietors, for the purpose of obtaining funds to enable (he committee to carry forward the objects of the Association. " I:ODEN, Chairman." OUTRAGES IN TIPPERARY. The following appears in Saunders's News Letter:— " NENAUII, Our. 11.--I regret to have to acquaint r 3 few•tofue ri t eu ht ni a leees there to from a w byt this i so gone twoown dispute.:mn esh One T c w ) t .ha o es n as s l us ' pa r p i s d so a i3n y e (die discharged i ab n re g g , ei dn a a blunderbuss, loaded with slugs, when within two yards tuTrnl'eedma':ind e for %‘ t i u li n c a ti t e saved e h d e a h r i d m the from c lick ( a l ' of hi s v i ct i m, having walked quietly into the kitchen for death theth eloci: : ue ; rkP (a)snPd. as it is, he received two of the slugs in his lun gs fier r ne i e de a n r att t e h ar e he eb( oiuht a i s r a t s , m yheoa a ur n l passing d 3: eiri;ee,T ati and d througheso therc. a escaped dtl -fated td t i i is manelt muscles, loss of a finger ; but on this occasion he was less fortu nate, for he lost his life.

The unfortunate people are goaded on by some lawless miscreants, who have nothing to lose. " The Roman Catholic clergymen were all occupied to day its exhorting their flocks, front the altars, not to assemble and peril their lives by riotous behaviour. I hot e most anxiously that their advice will be follo we d." The Evening Pocket contains a letter from Borriso kane, which states that the two men fired at are nee ne d Gaynor and Cleary. Neither of them is dead, and Cleary is not seriously wounded. OUTRAGES IN CLARE.—On Saturday morning, about five o'clock, six men stopped a horse and car bringing oats to market, near Shally-hall, and snapped a gun at this horse. The animal started at the flash, and fell under the car, where he remained for a long time, the people being afraid to give the owner assistance. At the hour of ten o'clock a party, similar in number, stopped a horse with a load of corn, on the•road at Pow der-hole, near Ruan, and fired two shots at the horse, wounding him dreadfully. The owner entreated them not to injure the horse, and he would return home with the oats, but the legislators refused compliance with the request. The police stationed at Ruan immediately went in pursuit, but were not able to come up with the party. The country is at this time in a lamentable condition. In every direction outrages are committed with impunity. The police are altogether incapable of preserving the peace. We really dread that a general system of plunder will be resorted to.—Clare Journal. THE Anmv.—The 831 Regiment have been replaced in Clare Castle and Ennis by the 59th.
