LON DON, MONDAY EVENING SUN, NOVEMBER 9, 1846. SALES BY AUCTION. ALDERTON, SUFFOLK. eight miles from the capital Market-town and Port of Woodbridge.—Valuable Estates, comprising 850 acres of Land. MR. W. W. SIMPSON begs to inform the public that the above-mentioned property, which was offered for Sale by Auction en the 22d of September, and bought in, has been sulmequently disposed of by private contract to Andrew Arce deckne, Esq. CULTIVATE, CULTIVATE, versus AGITATE, AGITATE. MR. W. W. SIMPSON invites the attention of Capitalists to the statements contained in the following Advertisements, which relate to the past, present, and future perma nency of Rentals as well as the value of Land, confirming, as they do, the predictions which he ventured to make last April, in a speech at Norwich, in which he observed, that " although he had been a thorough-going Protectionist, he was proud to say, that sliding and all other scales had fallen from his eyes ;—that it was his firm and honest conviction, that Rents which had been set on fair and liberal principles within the last seven years would be permanent ; that the year's purchase on such Rentals had risen within the last six months, and in ail probability would continue to rise ; that the increase of population, viz., 1,000 per day, would form a counterpoise for any importation, present or prospective, ensuring in ordinary seasons not excessive, but steady and remunerating prices for the cultivator, as well as ample revenue to the landed proprietor, and the assumed ad dition of fifty millions annually to the wealth of the country, would contribute to a higher year's purchase on estates. This and the high price of the funds has, and no doubt will stimulate a desire of invest ing in land, the only property, indeed, which can be considered es sentially permanent under adverse circumstances, produced by poli tical event,. Instead, therefore, of the motto `agitate, agitate,' it will_ be better policy to substitute that of ' cultivate, cultivate,' and let landlords assist improving tenants by making advances (in the nature of improvements in drainage, Sec.) of the additional capital which may be required, charging for the same at the rate of five per cent, on that expenditure, which shall be judiciously laid out. Hence, the tenant farmer will reap a benefit in many instances of 25 per cent., and a permanent improvement in rental, quasi landlord, will supervene. Mr. Simpson further observed, that In adopting free trade measures, Sir Robert Peel had proved himself to be one of the most talented, far-sighted. and fearlessly honest Ministers that had ever lived in the tide of time." The present aspect of the United Kingdom, occasioned by a general scarcity of food throughout Europe, fully justifies the opinion here expressed of the eminent talents and courage displayed by Sir Robert Peel. it ie stated by the most com petent judges that if his wise measures of free trade had not been carried out, the prices of Corn and produce would have risen to a famine height. Mr. Simpsen has also been assured by the most re spectable salesmen in Smithfield Market, that if it had not been , or the alterationlof the Tariff, the price of meat would long since have risen to one shilling per pound, and even now the general impression is, that before next harvest the prices of provisions will reach a height beyond what would be conducive to the general prosperity of the country. Mr. Simpson, in conclusion, cannot refrain from al luding to the opinion of that eminent man, the Este S.r Charles We therell, on the subject. A high Tory and firm Protectionist, the fears he entertained as to the probable results of the Repeal of the Corn Laws induced him to determine on selling his landed property, but his better judgment prevailed, and be not only retained pos session of it, but was in the course of making further investments when he met his lamentable fate.

SIMPSON has received instruc tions to DISPOSE OF a desirable BREWERY concern in London, doing a trade of 6,000 barrels annually. The brewhouse premises are well arranged and convenient for trade, which is now being carried on to great advantage. Further particulars may be obtained on application to Mr. W. W. Simpson, Agent for the Valuation and Transfer of Breweries, Dis tilleries, Mills, and Factories generally, 18, Bucklerabury. .34 R. W. W. SIMPSON, in the early part of the 1 year, for obvious reasons, recommended the proprietors of Irish estates, who honoured him with their confidence, to post pone the sales which were then advertised to be sold by auction. Since that period, in consequence of the potato failure, the Govern ment has resorted to firm and energetic measures to facilitate the employment of the labouring poor of distressed districts in Ireland, ai,d to put in train such comprehensive and ameliorating plans as, under proper direction, must tend to order, industry, and the in creased prosperity of the country. These measures have already brought about a good result, in the creation of renewed confidence in the future stability of landed property in Ireland, and applications have been made by English and Irish capitalists for particulars of estates. An offer, already received by Mr. Simpson, for the estate (now advertised) in the county of Donegal (consisting of 4,100 acres), of within a small sum of the amount which would be accepted, is corroborative testimony. These observations apply also to mortgages. Mr. Simpson opines that the all-wise and Omni potent Disposer of human events has visited that country with the potato scourge for the purpose of stimulating the Government and landed proprietary to form plans and make such advances of money as will immediately tend to production and reproduction, and thus at once improve the condition of millions of the Irish poor peasantry and tenantry generally, by furnishing that " seed to the sower" which will give " bread to the eater," thereby superseding the culti vation, and feeding solely on a vegetable yielding twenty-five per cent. only of food nutritous to the human frame —they will thus be enabled to grew and consume white straw crops In all their variety —produce which, under a fair course of husbandry, does not, like the potato, exhaust the natural power of the land : at the same time the feeding and foddering the straw of their crops will give en incalcu lable quantity of manure, whereas the potato plant will afford com paratively none. In the COUNTY of DONEGAL, 12 Miles from Londonderry, FEE SIMPLE ESTATE, comprising upwards of 4,100 Acres. R. W. W. SIMPSON has received directions from the Proprietor to OFFER for SALE by AUCTION, at the Commercial Buildings, Dublin.

The bogs attached to the estate are very valuable, and there are exten sive tracts of pasturable and easily reclaimed mountain lands, abundantly stocked with game. The property is in the immediate neighbourhood of Ballymena, and approaches within a quarter of a mile of this, the largest inland town in the county, and is only 20 miles distant from Belfast. The entire of the estates includes a surface of about 50,000 acres. The Belfast and Ballymena Rail way, the works of which are contracted for, passes through the pro perty, as will also two other railways in contemplation.

Mr. Simpson, while drawing the attention of capitalists to the above valuable estates, wishes to state that a second edition of his pamphlet has been published, on which the "Times" news paper made the following review .—" Mr. W. W. Simpson, the well-known and deservedly respected auctioneer and land valuator, has recently published a pamphlet, entitled A Defence of the Land lords of Ireland, with Remarks on the Relation between Landlord and Tenant,' the' Dublin Evening Packet,' in reviewing this work, gives the following character of its author:—' Mr. Simpson, we scarcely need remind our readers, is an Englishman, of vast ex perience in matters relating to the improvement and value of land in his own country. He is, moreover, a gentleman of most com prehensive views, and possesses rn understanding naturally strong, and a stock of practical knowlege and sterling sense which falls to the lot of very few persons in his own or any other rank of life. With the social condition of Ireland he has made it his business, almost as a matter of necessity, to be made thoroughly ac quainted. He feels for her wants, and has contributed as much, perhaps, as any man in his time to improve her resources, by en couraging the investment of British capital in every department of Irish industry. Such a witness as this we therefore bold to be beyond the reach of suspicion, on the score either of interest or partiality. His testimony must be regarded as invaluable, as it is unquestionably unimpeachable.' OBSERVE OUR CLOTHING!

On Sunday morning the densely populated neighbour hood of Little Queen-street, Lincoln's Inn-fields, was visited by the outbreak of one of the most alarming fires that has occurred in the metropolis for some time, and which was not extinguished until an enormous amount of property had been destroyed. The scene of its ope rations was the extensive manufactory belonging to Messrs. Witham and Co., wholesale coach and shoe curriers, situate in Little Queen street, and No. 30, Parker-street. The building in question was three stories high, and was so constructed as to form a sort of half square. The premises were surrounded by nu merous large workshops ; on one side by the manufactory belonging to Mr. Bealby, the builder ; on the other by Messrs. Shank's carriage works ; and Trinity Church was within a few feet of the property. By inquiries made during the burning of the fire the following par ticulars were obtained : At 25 minutes past five o'clock pclice-constable 61 F, whilst passing the Crown and Cushion, it. Parker-street, had his attention arrested by experiencing a strong smell of something burning. ; He immediately aroused the inmates, and told them that he feared the house was on fire. As soon as the house eould be opened he entered, and upon going into the yard he discovered smoke issuing from that portion of Messrs. Witham's premises over the stable. Having sprung his rattle he soon obtained additional assist• ante, and intelligence was immediately dispatched to the engine stations. It soon became apparent that the fire must have been burning for some time before the dis covery was made, for it had obtained such a strong hold that in• less than five minutes subsequently the flames broke through the roof, and rose several yardaabove 'the steeple of the church. In a space of time almost incre dibly brief the engine of the brigade from High Holborn, and one,from the parish, reached the scene ; but upon opening the gates of the factory in Parker-street a scene truly alarming presented itself, the greater portion of the three upper floors - was completely encircled in flames, and the fire was to be seen running along the timber fronts, almost with the swiftness of lightning, and for some time it was feared that every building in the viciniy would have been destroyed. The County and West of England engines, with about seven or eight belonging to the London establishment, arrived one after the other in rapid succession. The moment water was obtained the whole of the engin( s set to work ; those of the brigade under Mr. Braid wood's superintendence, and those of the %Vest of England and County Companies under the direction of Mr. Connertoa and Mr. Garwood. The firemen, perceiving the greatdanger to which the property adjoining was exposed, had a number of the branches be longing to their engines directed in such quarters as to arrest the further progress of the flames. This was s work of no little difficulty, for, in accomplishing their object, they were forced to withstand the great heat of the flames, and several times th e b urn i ng raft"rs and molten lead from the gutters fell upon them. Although every man laboured to the utmost, the fire was not cote pletely extinguished until nearly 9 o'clock, and not until property valued at some thousand pounds were burnt. Mr. Baddelly, the inspector of the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire, was at the spot with three of the society's escapes to render assistance to the neigh bours in case of an accident, but fortunately the machines were not required to be used. As to the origin of the fire not the least tidings could be learned; when the factory was closed the previous night everything ap peared perfectly safe. The following is a copy of Mr. Braidwood's official report of the damage done:—" Little Queen-street, and 30, Parker-street, Messrs. Witham and Co., the whole of the three upper floors and stock therein burned. Tht contents in the ground floor severely damaged. Sup posed to be insured in the Royal Exchange and other offices.-31, Parker -street, Mr. B.

On Saturday at the Ilford petty sessions, Mr. Fre derick Fenner, a gentleman residing at Ilford, appeared to an information ' which charged hi m w ith b e i ng on a piece of land in the possession of the Eastern Counties Railway, on the 23d of October, in search of game, by which he was liable to a penalty not exceeding 21. The defendant pleaded not guilty. Mr. John Shafton Thompson, a gentleman also resid ing at Ilford, stated that on the 23d ultimo he was in a field belonging to himself near the Eastern Counties Railway, when he heard the report of a gun, and then saw Mr. Fenner, on the top of the embankment, fire a second time, and saw a hare run across the railway. Mr. Fenner—Away, away, you scoundrel. The CHAIRMAN—ReaIIy, Mr. Fenner, that is very unbecoming. Mr. Fenner—lt is, bat I have had my feelings ont raged by being dragged here upon §uch a charge—l, an honest man, by such a scoundrel. The CHAIRMAN-We cannot permit you to proceed in that way. What answer have you? Mr. Fenner—l have two answers. The first is, that I have the license of the occupier of the land; and the second is, that Mr. Thompson has no right to prosecute this against me. I stand here for truth and justice. CHAIRMAN.—We'II have truth first, and justice after. A long and desultory conversation here took place. and the clause of the Act, 3d Wm. IV., cap. 30, was read with reference to the mode of proceeding under such Act, upon the conclusion of which Mr. Fenner called George Smith, a shoemaker residing in the Green-lanes, Dagenham, who stated that he had rented a piece of waste land in the parish of Ilford for the lost five years of the railway company for which he paid them 50s. a year. There is no reservation to the com pany of the game that may come upon it. He gave Mr. Fenner permission to shoot upon it. Mr. Thompson said it was very strange; he had re ceived a letter from Mr. Roney, secretarf to the com pany, in which that gentleman stated " that Mr. Frederick.Fenner, nor any other person, was entitled to shoot on the slips, or any other ground belonging to the Eastern Counties Company. The magistrates dismissed the information. Mr. Fenner, who was greatly excited, expressed his intention of indicting Mr. Thompson and the person who laid the information for a conspiracy. • DUTCH MAIL. THE HAGUE, Nov. 4.—His Royal Highness the Prince of Orange returned from Stutgard the day he fore yesterday. , • In the sitting of the States -General to-day the pro ject of law for regulating the disposal of the supplies of the colonial revenue was passed, after a long debate, by a majority of 27 to 13. THE HAGUE, Nov. 6.—The Minister of the Colonies hereby give notice that the Governor-General of India, by authority of his Majesty the King, has directed the tariff of import duties on ready-made clothes, of woollen, or cotton,l_in Java, Madeira, and the west coast of Sumatra, to be modified as follows : " The duty on these articles is augmented by 30 per cent. on the value. The duty is now 20 florins. " When imported in ships of the Netherlands, with certificates of origin in the Netherlands, end likewLe of their being manufactured in that kingdom, the duty is ten florins when imported in Netherland ships ; but without certificates of origin, as respects the raw material, the duty is twelve florins. " And that the said Governor- General isauthorised to declare this modification applicable to all such articles of clothing exported from this country since the 15th of October this year.—J. C. BAND.—The Hague, Novem ber,-1846." In the debate on the application of the surplus of the colonial revenue, several members spoke on the subject of the isle of Borneo. His Excellency the Colonial Minister said, that he had listened with satisfaction to the energetic language occasioned by the-Jeer of seeing a dispute of our territorial possession in the Indian Archipelago. The Minister said that the exchange of diplemaric notes between the Cabinets of the Hague and of Lon don was not yet terminated, and that it would be con trary to Parliamentary usage to speak explicitly on that subject. His Excellency added that he must avoid giving an erroneous interpretation to the treaty of 1824.• Every negotiation between two states of • unequal force offers particular difficulties, which are increased when the weakest endeavours to enforce inadmissible pretension. The treaty of 1824 owes its origin to the difficulties which formerly arose bet Ween the agents of the two nations. The simul taneous possession in Sumatra had caused collisions which might have had serious consequences. The only means to prevent them was to 'put an end to all posses sion in common. England, therefore, gave up Sumatra and all . the places which are held on the continent of India and the .peninsular of Malacca ; there is, there fore, no doubt respecting the meaning of the trt aty. Now the Netherlands, having been in possession for many years of two thirds of the island of Borneo, the Govern ment of the Netherlands thinks it would be contrary to the spirit of the treaty if the English form a settlement in the north-west part of Borneo. Great Britain pre rends that it is tree to settle at all points from which it is not expressly excluded, or where the Netherlands do not exercise any positive and recognised rights. The English Government had, however, added that it was by nu means the intention at this moment to make use of the rights which it thinks it possesses of forming a settlement on the north coast of Borneo. As for taking possession of the island of Labuan, the Government of the Netherlands have never opposed it, that island not being st ithin the limits of what we consider our terri 'ory. We have never set foot in that island, or had any political or commercial connexion with it. The Minister said that they had not lost the hope of convincing the Ca binet of London that our interpretation of the treaty of 1824 is correct, and that he had sufficient confidence in British good faith to hope that the English Government would abide by its resolution not to take possession of any part of the isle of Borneo.—Dzttell Papers, Nov. 7, 1846.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—ln your paper of this morning appears a state ment of our municipal election, the remarks appended to which are calculated to produce a false impression of the real facts of the case. It is not true that the Duke of Beaufort's influence, or that of any political party what ever, had one jot to do in the matter. The committee, which conducted the proceedings on the part of those gentlemen who are elected, was composed of men of all parties, as was the public meeting at which the can didates were first proposed. One of those_ gentlemen 4 - 61" W (Mr. Burton) is a Conservative, an d4l.e aefeeted candidates (Messrs. James Davis and James Pugh) are Reformers. The opposition to the successful candidates was promoted by two very troublesome and uninfluential persons, of whom, to evince again the absence of political motives, one is a Reformer and the other a Tory. In the la.t two elections it has been the most anxious wish of both parties to discourage political bias, and it was upon this principle that they wer e distinctly conducted.

RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—An accident happened at the Brimscembe station of the Great Western Railway, on Thursday night last, owing to .the carelessness of some of the company's servants, which has caused a great destruction of property, and might have been attended with loss of life. The policeman on duty having tu rne d the switches to enable an engine and tender to pass into the shed, neglected to replace them, and about eleven o'clock at night a traia of ballast wagons, which it was arranged should not have reached the station untill four o'clock on the following morning, came down the line, and run into the shed. Of course a violent col lision was the consequence —the tender and engine being completely doubled up and driven through the wall at the end of the building, which is two feet thick. .At the time of the collision, a man was under the ee engine cleaning it, but he escaped almost m iraculously without attrain any dangerous injuries.

Two children were the fruit of the marriage.

CAPTURE OF THE WATERLOO-BRIDGE TOLL COL LECTOR.—Christopher Walker, the collector of tolls at Waterloo-bridge, who absconded with 251. belonging to the company, has been taken by the police at Chelms ford. It seems he had dissipated the whole of the money he ran off with, and on reaching Chelmsford, and finding himself destitute, he gave himself up to the county police, and confessed the embezzlement. He appeared unable to afford an account bow be had disposed of the money ; but stated that he left London on Saturday, since which time he had spent 151, and 101. he bad in some way or other lost.

It comprises a small farm-house, garden, and convenient agricultur ,l buildings, together with sixty-four acres of highly productive and easily tillaged arable land, kindly to the growth of turnips, barley, wheat, and leguminous crops. A small portion is excellent old pasture land. This farm is in the occupation of Mr. John Reid, a most in dustrious, improving, and first-class tenant, under a lease for a term of seven years, from the 11th of October, 1843, at a rent of 1241. per annum.

Within TWO MILES of the WELLINGBOROUII STATION, ex ceedingly VALUABLE ESTATE, consisting of 468 ACR KS of very excellent ARABLE, MEADOW, DAIRY, and GRAZING LAND, lying within a RING FENCE. MR. W. W. SIMPSON has received instructions from the Trustees of the late John Christie, Esq., to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, on TUESDAY, November 10, at Twelve, An exceedingly valuable FREEHOLD and COPYHOLD ESTATE, eligibly situate in the parishes of Irchester and Wymington, within three miles of the capital market town of Wellingborough, and two miles only from the railway station, which is within about halfan hour's transit by railway to the important county town of Northampton. It comprises a farmhouse and suitable agricultural buildings, toge ther with 304 acres of land, including 237 acres of arable, generally of easy tillage and deep staple, much the larger surface of which, under proper cultivation, adapts itself to the turnip and barley course of husbandry ; and the entire amide surf ace of the estate is grateful, and in fair average seasons yields abundantly in corn, leguminous, and green crops in all their varieties. The meadow : , fid pasture lands are to a considerable extent of good feeding and dairy quality ; still they are, however, sasceptible of improvements relating to draining, &c., which, if carried out, would increase their present pro ductiveness; the same observation will apply to certain portions of the arable surface of the estate. As it would not be prudent for tenants of uncertain tenure to incur this expenditure, the following clause is inserted in the agreement:—" In addition to the rent, the tenants are to pay six per cent. on the outlay of the landlord for drainage, which rainage the landlord is to do according to a specifica tion to be agreed upon between the tenants and Mr. W. W. Gardner, the agent to the vendors." The above farm is in the occupation of Mr. James Mather, yearly tenant, who renewed his agreement at Michaelma.s, 1845, at a rent of 5821. lOs per annum. Mr. Mather and his family have been located on the estate for nearly a century. Mr. Mather is not only wealthy, but of excellent character ; a first class cultivator and manager generally ; he stocks highly, and, at the present period has a flock of 600 sheep, between the Leicester and Down, superior in regard to frame and quality of wool. Also a desirab:e Farm adjoining, with farm-house and agricultural build ings, and about 138 Acres of deep surfaced and exceedingly produc tive arable land, including a small field of pasture, in the occupation of Miss Elizabeth Frost, a highly respectable yearly tenant, from Michaelmas, 1845, at a rent of 220/. per annum. The family of Miss Frost have been tenants on this estate upwards of 40 years. The arable surface partakes very much of the same description and qua lity as Mr. Mather's occupation, with the exception that there is not quite so large a proportion kindly to the turnip course ;.still there are very few fields on the entire estate where turnips are not grown and folded oft. Also about 24 acres of excellent arable land, called Avenue Close, in the occupation of the Rev. Charles Partri d ge , vicar, tenant from year t o year, at a rent of 471. 10s. per annum, for the purpose of being let t o l a b ourers as a ll o tments. The copyhoid por tion of the above property is in the parish of Irchester, and pays an annual quit-rent of 31. 16s. 3d., and a fine of the like amount Oti o ti n ti_yie a s: lienation or death, to the lord of the manor of Irchester ra t e l n i d e t r_ o e h fo a r r e g , o equal in whole e e e t s o tat f o ree a lg o ld o . ms Th to e 6 a l ppo u r s ti . on 3 e d d . beni connsiderwedbiebvirtiauallpyaid titheby throeutt.oehnaanrgtse, free. In it may to the permanency of the rentals Mr. Simpson refers to the best test, namely the character of the tenants, who have so re cently taken their occupation at the present rents, added to the de sire expressed by them to be contin ue d on their farms in the event of the estate being sold. Mr. Simpson having made a mos t m i nu t e survey, field by field, and careful estimate of the property, fearlessly asserts it is one of the most desirable estates for occupation and the secure Investment of capital he has seen in the course of his ex mandHpotrticulars (with plans an nexed) experience.

At Croydon Police-court, on Saturday, a well-dressed middle aged woman, who gave the name of Keziah Sid dons, but who is better known in Croydon as Ann Trust, was brought before Mr. Adams, chairman, and Mr. Wilkinson, the presiding magistrate, on a charge of having obtained a considerable sum of money and a quantity of clothes from a young lady, named Eliza beth Markby Dodd, by means of false and fraudulent pretences. Mr. John Drummond, solicitor, of Croydon, who at tended in support of the charge, called the complainant as a witness. Miss Elizabeth M. Dodd, a young female of attractive appearance, and apparently about twenty-five years old, deposed as follows:—" I reside with my aunt, Miss Markby, who carries on the business of a stationer in Croydon. I know the prisoner. About last May she came to me, and said that a young gentleman belonging to the East India College, at Addiscombe, was anxious to pay his addresses to me, and that he had employed her as his agent, to convey messages and letters between us. She described him as being tall and fair, and said that his name was Anderson, and the reason assigned for the secresy was, that if it were known that he was cor responding with any young lady, the authorities of the college mightdeprive him of hiacommission. A gentleman answering the description given by the prisoner had been to the shop, and she believed the information made to her by the prisoner, and they communicated together from time to time upon the subject. In August the pri soner showed her an advertisement in a newspaper to the effect that the communications were still to be kept u p through " a friend," and she said this advertisement came from Mr. Anderson, and referred to her. The pri soner toad her that everything must be kept very secret, and it would be necessary, as her lover bad been sent to India, that she should follow him there to be married, and she, the prisoner, was to accompany her, and it was necessary that she should have an outfit. In consequence of this, witness gave the prisoner several dresses, and she said that her lover was to meet her at Bengal, and they were then to be married. The prisoner then said she must have some money to prepare for the voyage, and witness sold out some stock belonging to her, and the first sum she gave the prisoner was 191., and she afterwards gave her another sum of 154 On last Friday week, upon the prisoner's representation that every thing was ready for the journey, she clandestinely packed up her clothes and left her aunt's house, and accom panied the prisoner to the Greyhound Inn, at Sutton, where they remained until the following Wednesday, and during that period she gave the prisoner another sum of 101., but she returned her 51 They proceeded trom Sutton to the Red Hill station 'of the railway, and from thence by train to Dover, intending to go to France, and proceed by the overland route to India to meet her lover. While they were at Dover, however, some gen tlemen from Croydon, accompanied by a policeman, over took them, and the prisoner was taken into custody, and the witness returned with her friends. In answer to questions put by Mr. Drummond, the complainant said that she had begun to have suspicion of the prisoner, but she was induced to accompany her on account of her threats of personal violence, and she repeatedly threatened to shoot her if she broke her pro mise to go to India. Mr. Drummond—Was it upon her representation that you were accompanying her to India, to meet your sup posed husband, that you advanced her the money? Witness—Certainly it was. Mr. Adams asked the complainant if she knew any thing of the prisoner before this transaction. She re plied that she had known her for two years, and she added that she believed she got her living by fortune telling. Mr. Adams—Has she ever told your fortune? Com plainant—Several times.—(Laughter.) Mr. Adams—And did she ever say anything to you about a tall, fair young man? Complainant—She did not. Mr. Adams—Allow me to ask how old you are? Complainant—l am twenty-six. Mr. Adams—Did you ever have the curiosity to make any inquiry whether there was any young gentleman at Addiscombe of the name of Anderson? Complainant— No, I did not, because the prisoner said that if any inquiries were made it would spoil all.—(Roars of laughter.) Mr. Adams—Then did you never see the gentleman, or have any personal conversation with him ? Com plainant—No, sir. The prisoner said he was tall and fair, and I recollected a gentleman answering that de scription coming to the shop, and that his name was Anderson, and this was all I know about him. Mr. Adams—Then you actually started upon an overland journey to India, to meet and to be married to a gentleman whom you had never seen, or spoken to upon the subject? Complainant—l did, sir. (Laughter.) By Mr. Drummond—The prisoner told me that if anything came to the knowledge of the colonel, the young gentleman would be expelled. Mr. Adams said he should have hardly thought this a sufficient excuse for not making inquiry before starting on a voyage to India upon such an errand.—(Laughter.) In answer to further questions put by Mr. Drummond, the complainant said that she began to repent of the step she had taken when she got to Sutton, but the pri soner had obtained such influence over her that she dared not leave her. Sergeant Lumber, belonging to the East India Com pany's establishment at Addiscombe, deposed that at the time in question there was no cadet of the name of Anderson belonging to the establishment. Anne May, the confidante in the elopement, deposed that she was in the service of Miss Markby, the com plainant's aunt, and she remembered the prisoner coming to Miss Dodd, and telling her that a cadet had stopped her (prisoner) in the street, and told her that he was in love with Miss Dodd, and wished her to be the medium of the communication between them. The pri soner said that the reason he gave for this was, that if he was seen in the matter himself, he should lose his commission, and he wished her to get Miss Dodd to come out to India, and marry him, and bring her (pri soner) with her as a companion. The witness also said that she was present on a second occasion, when Miss Dodd gave the prisoner money and clothes, and she packed up her clothes on the same night she went away from her aunt's house. By Mr. Adams—The prisoner used to come very often to the house to tell fortunes, but it was without the knowledge of her mistress. The door was left open, so that she might get down into the kitchen unperceived. The prisoner frequently told Miss Dodd her fortune. M. Adams—What aid she say to her—do you recol lect? Witness—l cannot recollect it all. but I know she used to say something about a tall tine young man being in lave with her.—(Roars of laughter.) Mr. Adams—Did you ever hear her say who this young man was? Witness—Oh, yes ;, she used to say that he was lieutenant in the army.—(Laughter.) Mr. Adams—Was any one in the secretbut you? Wit ness—No; I packed up the things for MissDodd without the knowledge of her aunt, and I suspected she was going to India to be married —(A laugh.) Mr. Adams—What did you say to your mistress when the flight of Miss Dodd was discovered ? Witness—l told her I knew nothing about it. Miss Dodd, before she went away, told me that if I told her secret her lover would lose his commission, and they should all be ruined. The prisoner, upon being called upon for her defence, repeated her statement about the young gentleman being in love with Miss Dodd, and said that the money was only applied to the necessary expenses. The magistrate, after a short consultation, said there was no doubt that the prisoner had acted in a most crafty and wicked manner, although at the same time they con sidered it was most extraordinary that a young woman of the age of Miss Dodd, should have been so credulous as to allow herself to be duped by such an ab surd story. They were of opinion, however, that the evidence did not support the charge, and they were there fore compelled to dismiss it ; but, they, at the same time, remarked that they saw quite enough or the prisoner's course of life to induce them to caution her to be careful in future, or she might depend she would get into a scrape, and receive some punishment.

SUTTON - UPON TRENT, SATURDAY EVENING.—A case involving a strong suspi cion of poisoning, which took place two years ago has Just been discovered at this place. The person, whose death is in question, was a farmer of Carlton-upon-Trent, named George Taylor, who died on the 26th November, 1844. Some remarks having very lately got abroad re lative to the cause of his death, R. Falkner, Ese., of Newark, gave orders for the exhumation of the body, and a jury was empannelled, which sat on Friday and Satur day last. From the evidence adduced it appeared that the deceased was unmarried, and that a woman named Elizabeth Smith, who was described as somewhat pre pcssessing in appearance, intelligent, and twenty-eight years of age, took care of his house. In September, 1844, Taylor was attacked more than once by severe ill ness, during which his housekeeper nursed him with great care, but he ultimately sunk under the complaint and died on the day above named : his disease being, in the opinion of the medical attendants, ulceration of the stomach. After his decease the woman Smith showed signs of much mental suffering, and at length confessed to other parties that she administered mercury to her master at two separate times, which she put in his coffee. It appears that a preparation of arsenic is fre quently kept by the farmers to steep the wheat before sowing, and this preparation is commonly known among them by the name of " mercury." The witness who spoke to having heard Smith confess her having admi nistered the drug, said that at the time she declared her only intention was to make her master ill, but not to cause his death, for which she felt great remorse. The inquest was ultimately adjourned that the contents of the stomach of the deceased might be taken to London for examination by competent chemists.
