FRANCE. The Unisers has the following on the violation of the Sabbath and the religious fete days, with the ap parent sanction of the Government, after an official notification that they should be respected by every branch of the public a dministration. It says— " We recur with regret to a grave matter which we have already spoken of. In: spite of the circulars of the Ministers of the Interior and of Public Works, the administration continues to violate the repose of the Sabbath. Workmen were busy on Easter Sun day as on other Sundays. One of our readers points out to us works executed at the angles of the Place du Pantheon, and which certainly were not of an urgent character; another person informs us that workmen were also employed in the Rue Castiglione. By the official circulars, the Government has itself de clared that such facts are deplorable, and yet they are constantly renewed. Whence comes it to pass that there is such a difference beteen the words and the acts? We entertain no doubt of the sincerity of the Govern ment; in ordering that the works executed at the ex pense of the state, of the departments, and of the com munes should be suspended on the Sunday, it expressed a well-considered and absolute intention. It is conse quently the inferior agents who are guilty of this scandal, and who treat with mockery alike the orders of the Government and the laws of the church. We do not want to seek at present who are those agents, for we wish to avoid all personal accusation; but we must again express a hope that the Government will get itself obeyed. We find in the Pays and the Assemblie Nationale articles against the revolutionary league which has been got up in the United States by M. Kindel and other German democratic Socialists. The Pays has the following on this subject:— " We neither fear this ridiculous government, organized on the other side the Atlantic, nor its armies, nor its finances. Society at present has need of peace and secu rity; the late events accomplished in France have shown that this want is felt as deeply and as energetically amongst the workmen and the peasants as amongst the higher classes; it will not allow itself to be led away by any of those, preachers of war and disturbance who wish to throw the world into fresh convulsions. But if the revolutionary government has not in our eyes any principle of force and success, it is not the less true that it is about to get up agitation, and prevent the restora tion of calm in that Europe which has been so sadly disturbed during the last fifty years. These attempts, which are almost always followed by defeat, will have for result to arm European Governments with greater severities. Cannot the incorrigible promoters of perma nent revolution see that every effort of demagogy is fatal to liberty, and in rendering the right of a legal govern ment to defend itself more and more legitimate, it ne cessarily impels it to rigours which no man of sense could reasonably reproach it for? In conclusion, we may ask ourselves whether the revolutionary govern ment has a possibility of forming itself as it pro poses. Between a project and the execution of it there is a considerable distance. Will the Govern ment of the United States permit the establishment of an organized power, having at its disposal resources and soldiers which might threaten the repose and the ex istence of the European Gov, rnments? We think not. Some months since the Congress at Washington re sounded with very violent words; some speakers pro claimed the duty of the American Union to occupy itself with the internal affairs_of Europe, and impelled it to thus violate the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other states. These imprudent re marks, it is true, found no echo; but can it be believed that, if the Government of the United States tolerates the definitive constitution of the Revolutionary League, it will not expose itself to the energetic remonstrances of the European powers? We submit this question to the eminent men who now direct the affairs of North America." The following-letter, dated Clamecy, 4th inst., and addressed by General Canrobert to the President of the Republic, is published by the, Comstitutionnel : " Monseigneur—l have the honour to render you an account of my mission in the arrondissement of Clamecy. All that I have read, all that I had ,heard, of the ra vages of socialism in this country was far below the truth; lam here in the very heart of demagogy. The evil is immense, the Armin& are deep, and still bleeding. Let the increduicus come into the Niavre, let them see what this department was before the 2d December, and what it now is; let them examine the minutes of the pro ceedings against 579 inhabitants of Clamecy, condemned either by court-martial or by the departmental commis sion, and however resolved they may be to close their eyes to the truth, they will be compelled to open them and avow that the great act of the 2d December saved society. In spite of my wish, Monseigneur, to fulfil your intentions of showing extensive clemency, it has been impossible for me to do so to more than 52 persons, and many of those only had their punishments lightened. In visiting the prisons of the ;own I found 42 individuals on whose case. the mixed commissions had not yet de cided. I pronounced their fate by making them all feel the effects of your mercy.—l am, with deep respect, Monseigneur, your humble and devoted servant, (Signed) " CANROBERT." ITALY. We extract the following from a letter dated Genoa, 10th inst : " The depar..are of the Prince of Canino from Civita Vecchia was quite as extraordinary as his arrival. He embarked, dressed as a common seaman, on board the commercial steamer Industry, bound for Marseilles, vii Baßtia. The French Government had forbidden the Prince to proceed to Rome, lest the anar chists should profit of his presence to disturb public trinquiliity, but it afforded him every facility for the adj•is:na....nt of his family affairs. M. de St. Sauveur had arrived from France with dispirches on the subject a week before. On the landing of the Prince, M. de Is Tour d'Auvergne had come from Rome to Civita Vecchia to take his orders, and returned to Rome, from whence M. de Rayneval sent him to Perugia, where the Princess of Canino had retired. On his return, M. de la Tour d'Auvergne proceeded a second time to Civita Vecchia. Thus, the French authorities did everything in their power to enable the Prince to settle his domestic affairs; and it is now unvious, even to the Italians them selves, that M. Charles Bonaparte was not en trusted with any political mission. A letter written by a clergyman, who appears to be attached to the Princes of Canino, and published in a Piedmontese religious journal, explains the nature of the business which brought him to Civita Vecchia. The Prince owes an American 43,000 scndi (10,000 t), which he wished to repay him, and for that purpose he intended to sell his 'a ialogical cabinet and his gallery of paintings. The family refusing its consent, the Prince applied to the French Government for leave to pr ocee d to Italy, which was granted to him on condi t . that he should stop a t Civita Vecchia. Though his wife left Rome tir Perugia, on hearing of his arrival, it way not to avoid a settlement, but merely to bri n g awa y her Younger son, whom her husband wished to take with him to France. The eldest son, who is of age, remained Rome. The two daughters , w ho are mar ried, visited their tathor, and one a them, the Countess Ca p asse d mpf•lla, l ately b ' through Genoa with h er hus- RIOT ATIARIUNGTON COLLIERY.

They accordingly gave notice that in future there there would be four prices — name l y , ls. 2.d., I s , 31, is. 4 and ls. 6d. per ton , accordin g to the t h ickness of seem. This, though swore equitable mode of regulating wages, amounted, it seems, to a reduction in the aggre gate, which, it is said, would amount to about ls. per week in the average wages of the men in one pit. In the other pit no reduction of prices has taken place, though it was contemplated. After the month had expired the men remained in their houses, but refused to work at the reduced rate. In consequence of this, the owners, being determined to carry the new regulations into effect, ordered the men to leave their houses and make way for others who were willing to accept the terms. On the men refusing to leave the two policemen stationed at Bedlington, Drummond and Graham, got such assistance as they could procure, and attempted to eject them. This attempt was the signal for a de termined resistance on the part of the men generally. They assembled to the number of from 200 to 300 men, several of them being from other collieries. Many had provided themselves with sticks, and se veral blows were inflicted, the policemen and their party defending themselves as well as they could. Two men from Newcastle were severely wounded on the head and in other parts of the body. Andrew Gra ham, policeman, Mark White, constable, and Michael weigher at the pit, were also more or less Barkas, a injured. Some of the houses occupied by the " black . 3 legs," as they are called (that . i . , d . tne men who agreed were much injure , the windows and to the change), doors being- smashed to piece 3. One had to jump ,through a window at th e front of his house, to escape the viole n c e of the crow d. At length it was deem e d prudent to desist until further a ssistance could "e obtained.Aspecial train came to this town for the assistance of policemen.

Sebastian Frost and David Hurst bave since been apprehended. The number of men employed at Barrington Colliery is about 200. Many of them, it appears are willing to work at the terms which have been offered, but they are overawed by the others, who are more numerous and more determined. It appears that the reduction of wages is not confined to Barrington. It has already taken place at Seghill, Cramlington, and that district, and it is now going on at Sleekburn and Cowpen. Several have had bills of indictment preferred against them, but will not be tried till the next sessions.—New . castle Courant. PRICES OF SHAKES IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM PANIES' STOCK.

After some arguments, the examination was adjourned to the 6th of May. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Aprtl 14. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant -Judge, at the Guildhall, Westminster.) The Court sat to-day to take bail cases. Joseph Gale and John TVeygood were indicted for having assaulted Henry Spicer, a broker, in the exe cution of his duty. Mr. Trevethan Spicer appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Sleigh for the defendants. It appeared from the statement of the Learned Counsel, in opening the case, that the defendant Gale had for the last three years occupied a house in Newland-street, Pimlico, but during the whole of that period he had not in any way concerned himself about the payment of rent, and in addition to his neglect in that respect he was a troublesome tenant, and suffered the house to fall into a dilapidated con dition. The landlord naturally became anxious to get rid of him, and, by way of inducing him to quit the house, actually offered to forego all claim for the rent in arrear, and to present him with 101., but Mr. Gale was not inclined to give up possession of a tene ment in which be had resided on terms so very advan tageous to himself on those conditions, and demanded 501. as a compensation for giving up his rent-free occupation. Easy and indulgent as the landlord had been, his good nature was proof against so extravagant a proposition, and he determined at length to got rid of him; and the prosecutor of this indictment, being a broker and appraiser, was employed to distrain for the rent due, and on the 28th of February he made an entry on the premises, under a warrant duly signed by the landlord ; but Mr. Gale, not liking such an intrusion on his rights, very unceremoniously put him into the street. The prosecutor vigilantly watched for a better opportunity to levy, and on the 2d of March, think ing one presented itself, he again got into the house, but he found Mr. Gale as resolutely determined as ever to resist him in effecting the distraint. He took up an axe and aimed a blow at the prosecutor's head with it, but fortunately it missed him, though he did receive a blow on the face, which was the assault complained of in this indictment. The other de fendant was concerned in the transaction. In the course of the examination of the witnesses allusion was made to the warrant, when Mr. SLEIGH required the production of that docu ment to show that the prosecutor had a legal autho rity to enter the house. It was stated that the warrant was in the possession of the person by whom the prosecutor was employed and he was not in attendance. The ASSISTANT JUDGE said the absence of t e warrant was fatal to the case, and under the direc tion of the Court, the jury would acquit the de fendants. The jury then returned a verdict of Not Guilty. John. Henry Croyden, a waiter in the refreshment rooms of the House of Commons, was indicted for an assault on Mary Neale. Mr. Birnie prosecuted; Mr. Ballantine appeared for the defendant. The prosecutrix was an elderly widow, living in Thom's-court, Duke-street, Grosvenor - square , and it appeared she was acquainted with the defendant's wife, from the fact of her having kept company with a son of her's before her marriage to the defendant. They were on visiting terms, although the defendant was very averse to the acquaintance being continued intimately, and on the day mentioned, the Bth inst., she and her daughter accompanied Mrs. Croyden to Ebury-street, Pimlico, where she resides, Mrs. Croy den having that afternoon called, and taken tea with her. According to the evidence of the prosecutrix, as she left the defendant's house, he followed her out, and on getting to the corner of the street gave her a blow on the left eye, and another on the lower part of that side of her face, the result of which was that she fell and broke one of her arms on the kerbstone. She ex c c e o p u t l d o at a ssign she n h o ad rea c s a o l n led fo h r i t s he wi d f e e fe , n , defe n dant' The other was injured, and she had a dreadful black c ey on e d . uct Ann" instead of Mrs. Croyden. Mr. BALLANTINE, in his cross-examination of the prosecutrix, endeavoured to show that she was ad dicted to gin drinking, and that she was in the habit of inducing Mrs. Croyden to indulge in the same pro pensity. She did not admit the whole of this, but said she drank gin sometimes, and on the day in ques tion they had a shilling's worth of gin and sixpenny worth of brandy and water, but that was because Mrs. Croyden was going to be churched at St. Bar nabas, Pimlico, having been recently confined. She admitted that she had once been charged with break ing a woman's jaw, but that was compromised. She positively denied having " clawed" the defendant be fore he struck her. In addressing the jury, the Learned Counsel said the defence was that the injuries the prosecutrix bad sustained were the result of accident, brought about by her own intemperance and violent conduct. The defendant had merely pushed her, when she fell, and unfortunately received the injuries described. The defendant objected to a person who was an habitual gin drinker, and who induced his wife to join her in the gratification of that propensity, being in his house at all, and on this occasion he had requested her to leave, when she used the most scandalous language, and scratched his face ; and when in the street he m i g ht have given her a push, but that wa s all. She had no friendly feeling towards him, because he had married the woma n she had wished to be the wife of her own son. to prove the facts stated Witnesses were examined by the Learned Counsel. summing u p , told the The ASSISTANT JUDGE, .n , jury, that, even admitting the defendant case, he had no Justification for even pu shin g the prosecutrix which Was a common assault , : and the jury would say whether th e y considered be had or had not committed a common assault. The jury found the defendant Guilty. The AssisTariT JUDGE ordered him to enter into recognizance, with one surety, to com e u p for judg ment i a fort' s u g g ested that in the mean time an night, and a rrangement should be come to bet ween the parties. The Court then adjourned. ---- INTA.NTICID. y Mr. d held an inquest at the Marytilebone workhouse on the bo y of a fine, "On T esda Waklen MY ., newlY-b ' r n mare child, which was on Sunday morning last found in t own, by a lad named n Phelps, wrapped in a piece of linen, a blackr, near Portland -031), and part of a blue cloth shawl.

MANSION-HOUSE. Ferdinaptd Bock, a German, was brought before the Lord Mayor charged with having broken into and plundered a shop in Leadenhall-street of 92 yards of cloth, value 601., and coats and trousers, value 281. 103., the property of Mr. Heirons. The prisoner, who is a powerful man, was prevented from taking the goods beyond the passage leading to the premises by a delicate looking but resolute woman. Mary Ann Knight said—My husband is in the police force, and we occupy the third floor of No. 152, Leadenhall-street, of which I am housekeeper, and which is let out in offices. The ground floor is occu pied Mr. Heirons, who se s h op i s separa t e d by a pa rtition and a door from the p assage a t the foot of the stairs. Last night, at few minutes after nine o'clock, I came down with a light to see whether all was safe. When I got to the pa ssage I h e ard a rust ling by in the shop. I thought it was the apprentice, hut seeing the key at the foot of the stairs under the mat, I knew that could not be the case. I then tried to unlock the door with the key, but in vain. After waiting quietly about fi ve m i nutes I saw t h e s h op door open and the prisoner come out with as much as ha could bear upon his head and shoulders. I caught hold of him in the passage, an d sa id " Wh o are you ?" He said, "Let me alone." I said "Let you alone in deed I Why you are a thi e f . " H e t h en tr i e d to pass me with the lo a d upon his head and shoulders, and he struggled for some time. I still kept hold of him, and he then threw the largest bundl e o ff hi s shoulders. I rang the bell to make an alarm, and he then pushed me from the street door, and pulling it open, threw down the rest of the goods and made his escape. I went into the street and saw him running in the direction of the East India House, and called after him. I did not see the features of the man, as they were obscured by the bundles he was carrying, but from his size and height I believe the prisoner to be the person I encountered. The prisoner said, in German, that he never was in the house alluded to until he was taken to it in the custody of a policeman, after a robbery was said to have been committed i n i t. Henry King, coffee-house keeper, of St. Mary Axe, said :—As I was going home a little after nine last n ight, I saw the prisoner rush from Heiron's premi ses, and run across the road, in the direction of the East India House. Directly afterwards a female ap peared at the door of the house, and called out" Stop thief, and I followed and never lost sight of him till I gave him into the custody of a policeman. The prisoner had run all the way till he reached St. Mary Axe, where he began to walk. lam quite sure that he is the man. Mr. George Terry, of No 74, Leadenhall-street, confectioner, said :—As I was passing I heard a fe male voice, and saw a man come out of the house, and run directly across the road. Thinking that there might be others in the house, I remained at the door. From the opportunity I had of seeing the side face of the prisoners, and his ge nera l appearance, I feel per fectly satisfied th a t h e " Vs the man. Ten minutes afterwards I saw him brought back by the officer, and I said, " That is the man." The prisoner immediately said in English, " Oh, no." Chambers (523)—Mr. King pointed out the pri soner to me in Lime-street as a person who had just run out of a house. I touched him on the shoulder and told him what had been mentioned to me. He said "No, I have just come from Cannon•street." When I took him to the house, Mr. Tarry at once identified him. At the station-house I searched, and found upon him four skeleton keys, a door key, a latch key, a knife, and some lucifer matches, which corresponded with some I found on the premises which had been plundered. A button was found in the shop corresponding with the buttons on the pri soner's coat, from which one had been, to all appear ance, recently removed. The prisoner was remanded for a few days, in order that the depositions may be completed, when he will be committed fur trial. Thomas Cullen alias Collins, 60 years of age, was brought up for final examination, charged with having stolen a mantle and other articles of dress, the pro perty of Susan Hughes, of Leadenhall-street. The prisoner, w h o i s a person of venerable appear ance, had gone into the house, deliberately walked up stairs, broken open the drawers in one of the upper rooms, tied up the best clothes he could get in his handkerchief, and left the premises as if they were his own, Evidence was brought forward to prove that he had been once transported, and that he had been fre quently convicted. The prisoner —I am as innocent upon all the oc casions that I was accused as your Lordship is. I never committed any offence in my life. On the contrary, I am quite a reserved and cautious man. The LORD MAYOR—You have been committed more than once from this very place, and I am ashamed to see a man with a white head and of an advanced age pursue a system of plunder from mere liking, for it is quite evident that you can get good support by another course. The sentence of the Court upon you is that you be imprisoned in Bridewell to hard labour for six weeks. The prisoner was then committed. MARLBOROUGH STREET. William Ward was brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with having uttered a forged 51. bank-note to Charles Massey, tobacconist, Oxford-street. From the evidence of Mr. Massey it appeared that the prisoner came into his shop the previous night, for the purpose of backing a horse in one of the races to come off for 103., and he tendered what purported to be a 51. Bank of England note. Witness would not give change, but went out and asked some of his neighbours what they thought of the note. On com paring it with genuine notes a difference was per ceptible, and witness went back, and told the prisoner the note was a forgery. The prisoner, who could have left the shop while witness went to inquire about it, walked with witness to the station-house, when he was given into custody. The Inspector who took the charge asked the pri soner where he got the note from ; he replied " That i s my business, and I have plenty more of the same notes." He gave a false address.—Remanded for a week. LAMBETH. Mary Ann Phillips, a middle-aged and rather re spectable -looking female, was placed at the bar for further examination, before the Hon. G. C. Norton, on a charge of attemptin g to pass a 51. bank-note. Mr. George Butterfield, landlord of the Fountain public-house, St. George's-road, Southwark, deposed that on Thursday last, the Bth inst., at about half past nine o'clock at night, the prisoner came to his house and asked for a bottle of gin, and tendered in pa y m ent the note produced, which purported to be a Bank of England note. Witne ss sus p ec ted it was bad, and in consequence, som et hi ng t h a t h a d b een told to him, he went to Mr. Hill s , t h e Ci ty A rms , i n W es t square, and having satisfied himself that the note was bad, he told the prisoner so, and questioned her about it. She said that she was au unfortunate woman, and had been under the protection of Mr. Wilson, of the St. George's-road, for the last five months, and that she got the note from him. Mr. Wilson, the gentleman from whom the priso ner said she received the note, deposed on oath that her assertions were grossly false, and that she was a perfect stranger to him. Mr. Freeman, inspector of b ank-notes a t th e Bank of England, said that the n o t e produce d , No. 66,405, dated the 14th of July, 1851 , which purpor t e d t o be a Bank of England note, was a forgery. The prisoner declined o ff ering anything i n d e f ence , and was fully committed on the offence, b u t Mr. Freeman applied f or a further reman d t o a future day, when he thought it probable that ano against her. further cases would be proved the l r, he if not priso mneray, way in Thursday next. consequence remanded until SOUTHTVARK.

The witness added that upon being made acquainted with the circumstances he gave infor mation to the police, and had the prisoner taken into custody. Daniel Holland said that he was a costermonger, and was present in the Castle public-house when the the occurrence took place; that at a late hour on Tuesday night, it being holiday time, a number of persons assembled at the above house, and while standing in front of the bar the deceased, who had been drinking freely, offered to fight any person there. He —e particularly pointed to the prisoner, and challenged him to have a " turn up," when the latter said he had no objection, a nd in a moment they threw off their coats and " pitched into" one another, and in the struggle they both fell down.

" Durham-place, Lambeth-road, Aug. 14." ALLEGED DEATH BY POISON. EXHUMATION OF THE BODY. Yesterday an inquiry was commenced before Mr. W. Carter, the coroner, at the White Lion Inn, Streatham, as to the death of Mrs. Mary Ann Kirby, aged forty-seven, the wife of an extensive carrier at BAlham-hill, whose body had been exhumed by order of Mr. Carter, under the following singular circum stances. The jury having vie wed it in the churchyard of Streatham, where it had been interred on the 19th of February, on their return to the inquest-room, the following evidence was given : James Crichton, in the service of Mr. Lote, of 13a1- ham, the undertaker employed, identified the body and coffin. The deceased died on the 12th, and was buried on the 19th of February, in Streatham church yard. Mrs. Sophia Fitch, who resided in the house with the deceased and her husband, was examined at great length. The substance of her evidence was that she was present at her death. Mr. Kirby was in bed at the time, and apparently asleep. She bad been in bad health from asthma for some time, but could get about until the 10th of February, when she took to her bed. They were intemperate persons, and she did not live comfortably with her husband. On the 10th she was sick both before and after she went to bed. The witness went on to state that a week before Mrs. Kirby died Mr. Kirby introduced a Mrs. Ann Barnes as a lodger, very much against the de ceased's wish, who was under the impression it was done to annoy her, and she often refused to take tea and other thing] that Mrs. Barnes had made for from, apparently, n great personal dislike. Mrs. Barnes did not appear to have come to control deceased, and when she was ill assisted with witness, as from kind ness. Mr. Ward, of Balham- hill, surgeon, saw her on the evening of the 11th February, and medicine was administered by witness and Barnes. Witness never saw the medicine tampered with, but when Mrs. Barnes was out of the room Mrs. Kirby com plained of burning heat at the chest and throat. Mrs. Barnes told Mr. Ward of it. On the morning of the 11th February deceased had left her bed and gone into the kitchen. Upon witness going to her she complained of great agony and burning thirst in her throat and ehest ; the surface was very cold. She said she had been there since three or four in the morning, as Mr. Kirby had ill-treated her. To the CORONER—It was tea that Mrs. Kirby would not drink on the 11th because Mrs. Barnes had brought it, but she bad supped some of it, and witness threw the remainder away. On the 10th Mrs. Barnes made some arrowroot, which deceased took. Nothing pernicious bad been found that witness knew of, and she believed the deceased had died a natural death. Mrs. Barnes had left for some situation. Mrs. Poore, an elegantly-dressed woman, was called in, and explained that, under advice, she had directed Dr. Letheby to examine the body, and make the ne cessary analysis, hut he had been out of town, and was unable to do it till the previous day. The CORONER said, his note had been sent to her last Saturday, and he was in hopes the inquiry would have been concluded that day ; as it was, he could not go on without the medical evidence. Had any in quiries been instituted ? Mrs. Poore (apparently much surprised)—Where am Ito make inquiries ? I do not know where to find arsenic or anything else. I thought men were employed for that purpose. My sister ought not to have been buried without an inquiry. The CORONER —There will be one. Mrs. Poore—Yes, now. She then withdrew The CORONER said he would not infringe upon the sanctity of the grave until he had received a written certificate from Mrs. Poore that she believed the death of her sister had been caused by unfair means, and he had understood, if the investigation had been refused by him, the Home Secretary would have been applied to. These extraordinary proceedings, which excite great interest, were then adjourned until Dr. Letheby has been able to make the analysis. ANOTHER MURDER IN NORFOLK. LYNN, Aran. 14.—This county seems determined to establish its reputation for holding a prominent po • sition in the register of horrors, as the dreadful tragedy which occurred at Castle Rising, about four miles distant from Lynn, on Sunday last, has been followed in its excitement by the intelligence (just arrived here) that a murder of a still stranger descrip tion was on the same day committed at Outwell, village distant about ten miles from Lynn, and mid way between Wisbeach and Downham Market. It appears that on Sunday, three boys, whose names we have not learned, aged respectively 13, 9, and 7, were together in a field at some distance from the village, wh ere t h ey were employed in " crow scaring," the eldest boy having a gun in his posses sion, to fire occasionally, for the purpose of frighten jog the birds from eating the seed wheat. While in conversation with his two companions this boy made allusion to something which be had said in their presence on a former day, adding that, "if he knew they mentioned it to any one he would kill them." The youngest boy seems to have been frightened at this declaration, for, in tearful mood, he replied, " What shall I do, then ? I told my mother last night." Upon hearing this admission the eldest boy raised his gun to the fore head of the speaker, pulled the trigger, and by the explosion shattered his skull and spread his brains over the field. The gun, it is said, contained no shot, but the wadding passed completely through the head of the poor little fellow who made the imprudent con fession. Frightened at the act which he had commit ted, the murderer prevailed upon his surviving com panion to promise secrecy, and to assist him to dis• pose of the dead body, which was done by dragging it to a dry ditch, where it was carefully buried. The two boys then returned to the spot where their com panion had been shot, and gathering up his brains and the shattered fragments of the skull, they threw them into his cap. After this they kindled a fire of turf (the field being in the fens), upon which they placed the cap which they watched until with its contents it was entirely consumed. Upon their return home inquiry arose concerning the murdered child, when the companion of the mur derer confessed to the particulars above narrated, and was with the murderer himself taken into custody. The body was found as above described, upon which an inquest will be held. It is thought possible that the boy who fired the gun did not suppose the act would prove fatal, owing to its being loaded with powder only; but more will probably be known on this point after the inquest.

The applicant then described a number of extravagances which he alleged Mr. O'Connor had committed. If Mr. Feargus O'Connor found Mrs. Danford or her apprentices (dressmakers) engaged in their work, he would take the fabric, whether of silk, merino, or whatever it so happened to be, and tie round their heads, and a few days since he again called at the shop. Applicant and his family were about sitting down to dinner, Mr. O'Connor rushed in and went to the rear of the premises, where he conducted himself most indecently. He then re turned to the parlour and took up the hot leg of mut ton, which was in a dish upon the table, and held it in his hands, at the same time cutting off the meat and placing large slices in his mouth. Applicant's little boy was sitting at the table, and because be hap pened to look at him he threatened to cut off his head. Mr. BEADON inquired of the applicant what he re quired him to do in the matter? The applicant said he believed Mr. Feargus O'Connor not to be in his right mind, and he there fore applied to his Worship for protection. Mr. BEADON asked him how long it was since Mr. O'Connor had so conducted himself towards Mrs. Dunford and the young woman. Mr. Dunford said about a month since. Mr. BEADON said the applicant should have applied earlier at that court, if he wished to adopt any pro ceedings against Mr. O'Connor. Toe applicant said he did not wish to have Mr. O'Connor locked up in gaol, but merely restrained from committing any violence. He had applied to the Hon. Mr. Walpole, the Secretary of State, and he was referred to the Speaker vf the House of Commons. Mr. BEADON observed that he believed it was ge nerally understood that Mr. O'Connor was insane. He (Mr. Besdon) was not a commissioner of lunacy, and therefore could not take upon himself the power of restraining that gentleman. The applicant believed that Mr. O'Connor's in sanity had been caused by his active exertions to better the condition of the poorer classes. Mr. BEADON said it was too late to take any pro ceedings against Mr. O'Connor for having conducted himself, as it had been stated, in the manner be had towards Mrs. Danford • but if anything of the kind was repeated, the applicant would meet with every assistance from that court, if he would only apply at the time. The applicant thanked his Worship, and was about to withdraw, when Robert Logsden, wbo described himself as a re porter by profession, and a newsman by trade, when called upon to give evidence in a case of assault which had been disposed of previously to the applica tion, stepped forward and said he could assure the magistrate that Mr. O'Connor would be properly looked after for the future, as there had been a com mittee formed, of which he had the honour to be a member, for the purpose of placing the unfortunate gentleman in a proper asylum, there being no ques tion of his insanity. He also informed the Court that upwards of 51. had been subscribed fur that pur pose, and that that was the only amount which had been collected for Mr. O'Connor's patriotism. Mr. BEADON was glad to hear that the proper course was about to be taken iu the matter, and the subject then dropped. THE MURDER IN LAMBETH. FINAL EXA.MINATIOii OF THE MURDERER. Yesterday afternoon, after a very heavy day's busi ness had been disposed of by the Hon. G. C. Norton, at the Lambeth Police Court, Thomas Cathie Wheeler, the unfortunate young man charged with the frightful murder of his mother, was brought before that ma gistrate for final examination. The prisoner on entering the court gazed round anxiously, and surveyed the crowd present, as it to observe if there were friends or acquaintances present, but not appearing to discover any, he assumed a thoughtful appearance. The unfortunate man seems a good deal altered since Saturday, and has evidently suffered from severe mental affliction. During the reading of the depositions by the chie clerk, the prisoner sighed audibly and wept bitterly, and at that part where the witnesses described the state in which they had found the body of the deceased, the appearance of the head on the table, the finding of the carving knife and hatchet covered with blood, his features quivered, and large tears rolled down his cheeks. In the depositions of the six witnesses who had been examined on Saturday, and all of whom were now present, there was nothing fresh ; and the only additional witness examined was Mr. J. Cathie, proprietor of the Lee Arms public-house, Brownlow road, Dalston, who was brother to the deceased, and uncle to •the prisoner. This witness said that he bad not seen the body of the deceased, nor had he seen his sister (Elizabeth Wheeler) for a fortnight before the present unfortunate occurrence, but he was aware that she lived at No. 1, Durham-place, Ken nington-road, and had no doubt upon his mind that the body described by the former witnesses was that of the prisoner's mother. Witness was quite aware of the prisoner's insanity, and had taken him himself to Bethlehem Hospital in March, 1849 ; but nine months afterwards he was discharged, though in an uncured state, at the earnest entreaties of his mother. After three or four months, however, he was obliged to be sent to the Wandsworth Lunatic Asylum, and there he remained until the Ist of February, 1851, when, at the urgent entreaties and solicitations of his mother, he was discharged from there. Before his discharge, however, the committee of the institution remonstrated with-his mother, and told her that if anything happened she would have only herself to blame, and that the act of discharge was solely her own. His mother, notwithstanding this, persisted in her entreaties, and on her signing the printed form required by Act of Parliament the prisoner was dis charged. From that time up to the present unfortu nate calamity he lived with his mother, who always evinced the greatest possible affection and solicitude for him. He (Mr. Cathie) was in the habit of allow ing the prisoner a certain sum weekly, and for this he came regularly to his house. Oa Tuesday week he called as usual, when his conduct was so strange that witness felt it necessary to send a message to his sis ter in reference to him, and requesting that she would do something .with him. Mr. NORTON---YOl,l say there was something strange in his manner, will you be so good, Mr. Catbie, as to describe what you observed ? Mr. Cathie—Well, sir, on my leaving my house to go to the butcher's on the morning in question, I found him standing outside my door like a statue, and ad dressing him I said, "Halloo, Tom, how long have you been here ?" He replied, " Oh, not long," though I afterwards understood be had been there a consider able time. I asked him to go into the house, and he said-he should presently ; but I found him in the same position when I caine back from the butcher's. I again asked him to come in, and he said, "Yes, I'll now do so, but I prefer being in the sun ;" and then he went into the yard, where the sun was shining, and where he remained for a quarter of hour or twenty minutes. During this time my daughters went and spoke to him, but he did not appear to take any notice of them. I then gave him the money I was in the habit of allowing him, and also brought him a coat from the bar which I promised him. Having a bag under his arm, I asked him to put the coat into it, but he refused to do so. I then offered to make it up into a parcel, and took a newspaper for the purpose, but he would not allow me to do so, but said he should take it on his arm. He kept mat• tering something to himself, upon which I said, " Young man, I am sorry to see you in this state ; you want somebody to control you properly." Upon this he became much exeited—said he was an Eng lishman, that he should fight for his rights, and allow nobody to control or oppress him. His conduct on this occasion was altogether of so extraordinary a character that I spoke to my wife on the subject, and told her I feared that something dreadful would happen. .Mr. NORTON—Were you aware that the prisoner had been in the habit of carrying a knife and a pistol about him in this black bag ? Mr. Cathie—No, sir, I was not ; and if this was the case, it would account for his objection to put the coat into it. The prisoner—" Oh, no ! I carried this bag for a weight, and felt a pleasure in swinging it about by my side, like a pendulum." In conclusion, Mr. C athie said that his sister was much too fond of and indulgent to the prisoner. The prisoner had enlisted twice before he had been first sent to Bethlehem, but was discharged, as being unfit for the army. He also made his escape from Wandsworth Lunatic Asylum, but was taken in an hour afterwards at his mother's house by the keepers, who had come in pursuit of him. The prisoner had exhibited symptoms of insanity before going abroad, one of which was, that he would leave excellent situa tions without the slightest cause. This having concluded the evidence, the prisoner was asked if he wished to put any questions to his uncle, or to say anything to the charge, and he re. plied, Nothing." The witnesses were then bound over in the usual recognizances t o appear and give' evidence against the prisoner, at the ensuing es at the Central Court, on a char ge of wilful mitirsdi°erll, and the unfortunate man was fully committed re moved from the court. and In the course of the proceedings Mr. N orton rea d the following communication which he h a d received relative to the ac cuse d , from Captain Robertson, chief constable of the Herts constabulary : " Sir,—l think it right to info - 3 : 132 II; a t ti fo t t, t in n p g t;lhs et last Thomas Wheeler now in custody for cats_ death of his mother, was Inspector Dunn, brought to me b e having Dunn, of the Herts' Count Constabulary, he threatened to shontata person i n thee n two mike from this town.
