I BRUSSELS, Auc. 21 and 22.—The Courrier Edge of i the two dates is chiefly occupied with the proceeding in the Court of Assizes of the province or Brabant, in th e affair of Messrs. de Redder and B ;rque t, engineers and 1 undertakers of public works, accused of peculation and corruption. The Courtier Beige has ten closely printed columrs. giving an account of the first two days (Thursday ar.4 Friday) proceedings, which were . n ot c( ncluded. BRUSSELS, Ana. 20.—Last n ight about ten o clock, M. London, s rieh proprietor, residing in the causeway of Molenbeck, St. Jean, bad just got home from a club, when hearing a noise in the cellar, he to( k a pistol and went down to discover the cause. At the . moment of entering the cellar he re ceived a wound from some fire arm in the breast. He had just strength enough left to get up stairs, but on reaching his bedroom, tell down and expired immediately after. On hearing the shot fired, Mrs. Londoz rose, and saw a person escaping through the garden. BRUSSELS, AUG. 22.—1 t appears that M. Londoz, when he heard the noise in the cellar, took two pistols, one loaded, the other not, and when he got to the last step he was roughly attacked by a vigorous arm, and a desperate struggle ensued, as is evident from the clothes of the victim awl various traces. The perpetrator pro bably wrested the pistol from M. Londez, Which was dis charged during the struggle, whether accidentally or not is at present uncertain. M. Loral; it seems , on hearing the noise in the cellar, went up stairs to get his pistols, and lo inform his wife. The report of the pistol awakened the servants and the neighbours. The ser vants immediately hastened down stairs and found their unfortunate master lying on the ground, unable to say any more than the word " wounded." They car ried him to the drawing-room and laid him on a sofa. The physician and a priest, who had been instantly sent for, arrived too late to see him alive. Only one pistol (that which had been discharged) was near the victim, so that it may be believed that the as sassin, not knowing that the second pistol was unloaded, took it to defend himself, if necessary, in his flight. It is singular that the event was scarcely known when it was generally reported in the neighbourhood that Mr. Londoz had committed suicide, which every circumstance proves to have been impossible. Of course we have only conjecture on this event; the murderer has not been dis covered, and every suspicion respecting the author of the crime must be suppressed. M. Londoz was a vigorous man, of lofty stature, in the prime of life. He leaves a widow and four young children. His fortune is said to have been 40 000 francs per annum. The Countess of Napua, widow of the last King of Holland, William 1., arrived at Brussels to-day at four o'clock. ST. PETERSBURGU, AUG. 13.—Our newspapers pub lish the following Imperial Ukase to the Directing Senate on the 18th of July :—"lt appears that the ill disposed persons who, in the month of February last. made attempts in the republic of Cracow, in Posen, and in Galicia, to overturn the existing Government, had accomplices in the Governments of Wilna, Kanen, and Grodnos. We have to extend to the said Governments the measures already prescribed for the maintenance of the public security in the kingdom of Poland, and the government of Podolia and Wolhynia, and accordingly, order the Governments of Wilna, Kauen, and Giodnt s, as in a state of war, and place them under the command of the Prince of Warsaw, Prince Paskewitsch Erivanski, Field-Marshal and Commander-in-Chief." KIEL, Auc. 15.—(From the Weser Gazette.)—We believe that we may positively state that the Emperor of Russia, on receiving a letter from the Grand Duke of Holstein, respecting the succession of Sleswick-Hol stein, said he should not at present interfere in any manner in this matter. As the several claims on H. . - stein are expressly reserved to the Emperor by the letters patent—(" It appears there are certain circum stances which hinder us from speaking with the same preci-ion of the hereditary right to Holstein")—this is very intelligible, and the Emperor may quietly wait to learn what off-rs may be made to him on the part of Denmark to consent to " recognise the integrity of the Danish state in its t,tality." In his position it is cer tainly more correct to t the affair takes its course. On the other hand, it becomes more and more probable that England, and doubtless France also (especially to coun teract the pretensions of Russia), have declared fur tilt maintenance of the union of dominions now governed by Christian VII. The national policy of Germany has of course no ad vocates among foreign nations, and can be promoted only by the powers of the German confederation. All will depend upon the two great German powers actin , as their duty and interest prescribe. BRESLAW, AUG. 15.—A convention is said to have been concluded between Austria and Prussia, by which both parties are to exercise the strictest vigilance to pre serve the rights of Germany from being in the slightest degree violated or infringed. The visit of his Majesty the King of Prussia to Konigswarth, though short, was decisive, and gave the final turn to this affair. The approximation of Austria to Prussia is more cordial than ever. Independently of less important indications, there are two facts which indisputably lead to this conclusion. The daily increas ing coolness in the relations with Russia, and the dif• ferences between Austria and the Papal See. At all events this approximation is decisive in the affairs of the Prussian constitution. So much is certain, that at the beginning of the year 1847, all the deputies to the pro vincial estates of' Prussia will meet at Berlin, and that the official notices on the subject will appear in the course of this month or the next. A good deal of correspondence between the parties was read, and in one of these letters, after the defendant bad re pudiated the shares, he says, " I am advised you have no claim against me, either by the rules of our society or by the law of the land. If you think otherwi- e, you will take your own course; but you have a clear case against my principal, Mr. Dixon, and you may summon me as a witness." Ft), the defence it was contended that the shares were not tendered within a reasonable time, and a number of witnesses were called in support of this view of the case. His LORDSHIP, in summing up, said he had never sat with so little satisfaction to himself to investigate the facts of a case as he had done in some of the cases which had been tried during the present assizes. The jury had been occupied a long time in the investigation of some of these cases, but if the disclosures which had been made would have the effect of bringing people to their senses, the time of the Court would not have been uselessly employed. His Lordship commented in strong terms on the letter of the defendant respecting Mr. Dixon, and observed that it might be very distressing to the jury to investigate such matters as these, but he hoped the public would be the gainers. The jury, after being about an hour in consultation, found that the shares were not ready to be delivered within a rea sonable time.—Verdict for the defendant. August 22. (Before Mr. Justice WICHITMAN.) Elizabeth Davison was indicted for having unlawfully ex posed her infent child with intent to cause its death. Mr. Hutton conducted the prosecution. Mr. Sergeant Wilkins, on the prisoner stating that she was unable to em ploy counsel, unCertook her defence, at his Lordship's request. It appeared, from the evidence of Mr. Blain, a brick maker and publican at Birkenhead, that the ptieoeer had been fur some time previous to last Easter Monday in his employment as a servant. On the Sunday preceding Easter Monday he observed that she seemed ill, arid on the Monday he spoke to her, with a view to procuring medical assistance. The prosecutor's wife was from home at the time, and there was besides the prisoner no female in the house except the witness's little daughter. The witness intimated to the pri soner his suspicion s that she was in the familyway. This she denied. He said he would send fur a medical man, on which she said she would go for one herself'. Witness sent a Mrs. Kelly with her to the doctor, and she came back with some medicine. He wished her to go to lied, but she said she would rather go to her aunt's at Wavertree, a place a few miles from Liverpool. Gave . ber 65., and she went away, arc mpanied by Mrs. Kelly. Mrs. Kelly stated that she crossed the river with the prisoner, who seemed on her arrival in Liverpool to be in great pain. She asked a cabman on the road where she could get a lodging, and be named a place about ten minutes' drive off. She got into the cab ant was driven off, having declined rs. Kelly's offer to accompany her. It appeared from the evidence of James M'Avoy, the car driver, that the prisoner had at first told him to go to one Richard O'Brien's, in Regent-street She afterwards told him to drive to the Wavertree-road. On getting to the Tunnel Hotel she said she wanted to go to Sandown-lane. On going there he got down and opened the door. She told him to wait a mon,ent ; and lie perceived her wrapping a alai in some flannel, and she put it under her arm. She had a basket with her, and went away up a lane. It appeared, on cross•examittation, that the witness had received at first ss. from the prisoner, but stopped before he got to the place where site fluallv left him, and refu , ed to di ive her any further until he get Is. 6d. inure. The whole distance was ai miles. She seemed very ill. Elizabeth Parry state I, that on the day in question site was going along Sandown-lane, and saw the prisoner leave the car. She went access some waste ground, and to a gate leading into a grass field. She got over the gate. Site bad a basket with to r She sat down in the field, and took the lid of the basket dr. She went on a little further and got over a wall into a plantation. She returned shortly after into the ante field, and ran some distance up it. Witness went to the police-station at Wavertree, and saw 'Mrs. Har rison, wife of one of the constables, who accompanied her to the place, and sbe there saw something in a little beside the wall. Mrs. Harrison examined it and found a child. It was lying with its head downwards among some nettles in a hole which had ap ; arently been made by dogs. There was a. flannel thrown over it. A person of the name of Carter went after the prisoner, and found her about a quarter of a mile off in the village of Weavertree. He asked her to go back with him. She 5:111i1 she had done nothing amiss. He told her of having left the child in the hole, and to this she made no reply. He took her into the house and placed her ley the fire. He then heard another child cry, and found it was in ache basket which the prisoner carried. appeered from the evidence of Mr. Watling;, a surge n, that he was called in to see the child immediately after itwas tOutid. It was cold and languid, with the puke scarcely per ceptible. Its ler arm was Ur, ken. It Reed for a fortnight after, anti it was during that, time baptised by the tiaee of Thomas. --- On Saturday last the public parks in the neighbourhood of Manchester, which have been purchased by voluntary subscription, and are devoted to the free and uncontrolled re creation and amusement of the working community in that densely-populated district, were inaugurated and thrown open with great ceremony and display of rejoicing. The day having been pretty generally observed as a holiday by the manufacturers and principal merchants of the town and neighbourhood, vast bodies of working men and clerks were enabled to attend, and when at eleven o'clock the municipal authorities started from the Town-hall in a gay procession of equipages, the multitude of pedestrians who prepared to accompany them was almost beyond cal eulatiati. Various bands of music, military and amateur, contributed to enliven the scene, and from almost every window and balcony en the route of procession there floated gay and variegated banners, bearing devices and inscrip tions appropriate to the occasion. It may here be men tioned that the parks have been severally named the Queen's Park, the Peel Park, and the Phillips' Park (the latter in honour of Mr. Mark• Phillips, one of the representatives of the borough of Manchester). As a matter of convenience, it was resolved to open the Peel Park first, the grounds lying within the jurisdiction of the borough of Salford, the trustee ship having to be transferred to that body from the corpora tion of Manchester. The procession having reached the Town-hall of Salford was joined by John Kay, Esq., the mayor, and the members of the Council in nine carriages. In a short time the cortege arrived at Lark-hill, the site of the Peel Park, which is about a mile and a half from the Manchester Exchange. The day being fine, the park (which is thirty-two acres in extent, and laid out in lawns, walks, and parterres, with archery-ground and gymnasium) looked exceedingly picturesque and attrac tive, an effect which is not diminished by a fine view of the river Irwell. Here, as in the other parks, everything that can tend to promote rational recreation and manly and athletic exercise has been furnished in the most tasteful and convenient manner, whilst handsome and com modious refreshment rooms proclaim an assurance that some more stimulating beverage may be had than that contained in the stone basins where iron ladles, fastened to the wall, are somewhat ostensibly displayed. It was expected that Lord Ellesmere would have performed the ceremony Of bap tism for the Peel Park, but his Lordship was unavoidably absent, and the duty devolved on the Mayor of Manchester (W. B. Watkins, Esq.), who addressed the assemblage in brief but appropriate terms on the gratifying spectacle before them. He said that no fewer than 5,000 working persons had contributed to the Park-fund, and the manner in which they had been backed by their wealthy neighbours gave a practical refutation to the statement, that the manufactur• ing and mercantile classes of the kingdom were actuated solely by a desire to accumulate wealth, without caring for the sufferings or enjoyments of their poorer neighbours. The worthy magistrate then formally declared a transfer of the property to the Salford Corporation, and having chris tened the grounds by the name of the Peel Park, they were . declared to be open henceforth and for ever free to the public. The announcement was received with loud buzzes by the multitude, amid the firing of cannon and the braying of trumpets, which made it almost deafening. Amongst the gentlemen surrounding the Mayor at the moment of in auguration. we observed Mark Phillips, Esq., M.P. •, Entwisle, Esq., M.P. ; P. A. Slaney, Esq, late M.P. for Shrewsbury (one of the first promoters of the park scheme); Stephen Blair, Esq., Mayor of Bolton; John Meller, Eeq., Mayor of Ashton-under-Lyne; P. Marsland, Esq„ Mayor of Stockport; and the chairman and various members of the Parks' Committee. A considerable porion of the multitude having dispersed in search of amusement, the procession was enabled to retrace its steps, and passing slowly through the thronged streets, ultimately made its way over the Victoria-bridge, and pro ceeded towards the Queen's Park at Harpurhey (formerly the Hendham-ball estate), about two miles distant to the eastward from the Manchester Exchange, on the Rochdale road. Here a ceremony similar to that at the Peel Park was performed by Mr. Mark Phillip, who addressed the multitude at considerable length on the importance of the occasion they had met to celebrate, and uLing them to still further exertions. This park is about the same size as the Peel Park, and is laid out in a similar style. The name of the Phillips' Park, which is situated at Bradford, about a mile and a half from Manchester, was given to it by Mr. Entwisle, M.P., who indulged in a warm eulcgiurn on Mr. Phillips, for the manner in which he had performed his Par liamentary duties. The firing of cannon, and cheering and music, having subsided, Mr. PHILLIPS expressed his acknowledgments for the high honour that had been done to himse'f and family by calling the park after his name. As Mr. Entwisle had referred to his retirement from the representat'on of Manchester, he begged to say that he found it impossible to continue his Pariumentary labours without injury to his health. There was no cricket• grounq or skittle-alley, or other gymnasia, connected with the House of Commons; and every man who had attended to his duties found that his health must ulti mately give way. The proceedings then terminated, and the procession re turned to Manchester at five o'clock, where an e,egant and substantial repast awaited the invited guests at the Town hal!. This errerainnient was ordered for three o'clock; but it was impossible for the authorities to expedite the business in less time than it occupied. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE: NORTH ERN CIRCUIT —Liverpool , Aug. 21. CROW'; COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WIGiITMAN.) Charles Lynn was indicted for maliciously shooting at John Wainwright, with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. Mr. Brandt conducted the prosecution; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Sergeant Wilkins. It appeared from the statement of the prosecutor, who is assistant game-keeper to the Earl of Derby, that on the night of the 15th of April last, he, in company with another man, was drinking at a public-house in the neighbourhood of nice Knowsley, and about a m ile from Prescot. The public tlsiehoEtsagfilereadn,d a C u l d tild w . en A t b ;:u u t t ti r a ou lf s • e pa is st k n n e lie by shortly after by the back door , f or the p ur p ose of ascertain htehaer d name several of ascertain ing the ca ,se. As soon as he got through the gate sr 'me one tired a shot at a distance of about sixteen yards, a! d he was immediately struck by several shots, one of which pene• Crated his hand and the other his leg. The landlord of the Eagle anti Child ran out immediately on hearing the shot, and saw a man making off along the Liverpool-road. Ile pursued the man, but the latter got over a wall into one of Sir Thomas Birch's plantations ' and escaped. On searching the wood the next day, some footmarks were found, which were said to cot respond with the shoes found upon the psi• sorter when he was taken into custody. Some time after a small gun, the stock of which was moveable, was found in t he same plantation. It appeared from the testimony of other witnesses, that at an earlier part of the evening the prisoner was in company with another man at the Rose and Crown public-house a little distance from the Eagle and Child. He had a gun, which was, by a crack in the stock, identified as that which was afterwards found in the plantation. He produced it in two parts from his pocket. He loaded it. While he was putting the shot in his companion said, "Put some of the ethers in, they'll tell a tale." He put in two kinds cf shot. lie said he would shoot game in spite of any body. When tie was leaving the house he said, "Let either Birch or Wainwright molest us on the road, and we'll do their jsb for them." Another witness, while on hie wsty from et :o Huyton, saw the prisoner leaning against the wall of Sir Thomas Birch's plantation, and asked him, what he was doing there. He said he was looking for a hare. The wit ness told him that Birch. the keeper, was out, and he replied that he did not care—he would have a hare, and do Birch afterwards. It appeared that in a doer near which the pro secutor was standing when the shot was tired were found as many as 25 shots, which had apparently formed part of the charge. Mr. Sergeant Mueslis addressed the jury for the defence, and they retired to consider their verdict. After a ccnsultation of three hours, they returned a verdict of Guilty. To be transported for 14 years. Chart!. Greenwood, Thomas Lawley, John Greenwood, and Joseph Mills, were indicted for having robbed Jetties Green wood at at Todtnorden and Walsden, on the 17th of May. Mr. Brandt conducted the prosecution; the pritonet s were not ciefended by counsel. It appeared trom the statement of the prosecutor, who is a very old man, that he was watchman in the service of Mr. Robertshaw, who has a mill near Todmorden. While going the round of the premises, he beard some one kick the ceal house door. He went out into the road, and he there saw tour men in white smockfrocks, and asked them who had been knocking. They said they had not. The old man said it could have been nobody else; on which high words ensued, and one of the prisoners, Lawley, said, " D—n him, smash his lantern." The men thcn attacked him. One broke his lantern, another knocked hitn t own, and they beat him as he lay upon the ground, until he was nearly insensible. lie cried out "murder," anti sonic young men who were in the neighbourhood running up, saw four men in smockfrock, beating sonic person wit° was lying upon the ground. The mea ran away. The old man was then fcund to be seriously insured ; his face was much bruised and covered with blood, and his hat was gore. Th s, however, was found at some distance, where it was supposed it had been taken by his assailants. The prosecutor spoke very doubtingly as to the identity of the prisoners. It appeared, however, that a short time before, the four persons at the bar had been all together at the beer-house of a Mr. Green wood, at Clough, near Walsden, where they had a quantity of ale, for which they did not pay. They had all white smock-. frocks on when they left, and they went in the uirection of the mill of Mr. Robertshaw. They left about eleven o'c:ock. A sergeant of police, who was at Mr. Robertshaw's soon after the attack, went to the Navigation Inn, where lie found the prisoners. They had come in very shortly after eleven o'clock. There was then blood on Charles Greenwood's smockfrock. He said he had been wrestling, and he added that they bad punched Robertshaw's coal-house door as he passed, and he bad knocked down a man who came out. The officer who apprehended the prisoners found blood upon Law ley's smockfrock, as well as on Greenwood's. Greenwood said the blood was Tom's (Lawley's), with whom he had had a scrimmage. At the close of the case for the prosecution, it was intimated. by Mr. Brandt that he did not think the evidence could sus tain the charge of robbery, but be submitted the parties might be convicted of' the common assault. His LORDSHIP thought that this was not the case, and that to convict the prisoners of the assault there nntst be evidence of an inchoate attempt to commit the felony, which fails, or in which they were interrupted, before the felony is complete. It never could be the intention of the Legislature, where a party had comtnitted an assault, and there was on the evidence no pretence for saying a felony bad been intended, that the party might be charged with the felony and convicted of the assault, by which course he would be xposed to a very different punishment front that which would have been inflicted on him had he been charged with the assault alone. His Lamson', after consulting with Mr. Justice CRESS WELL, ruled according to the opinion so expressed, and the prison re were Acquitted generally. Matthew Sherlock Hilton, aged 19, a young man of very rest ectable appearance, and who seemed throughout the trial to be in the greatest agony of mind, was indicted for uttering a forget receipt of one - John Woodcock, knowing it to Le forged. Mr. Brandt conducted the prosecutio n ; the p ris o n er was defended by Mr. J. Pollock. The prisoner, it appeared, was in the em p lo y ment of the British and Foreign Copper Company, at Sutton, near St. Helen's. It was the prisoner's duty to check the weekly accounts. He was so engaged on Saturday, the 4th July, and among other accounts handed one in from John IVood cock, for 71. 9s. 2d.. a mark, which purported to be the signa ture of John Woodcock being attached. The cashier refused to cash it, as he had no proof of its being Woodcock's mark, without an attesting witness. The prisoner went out with it and came back with the signature of John Sheldon, the fore man, attached as a witness to the mark of Vs'oodcock. It appeared from the testimony of Woodcock and his pertner that the amount of his account in the week in question w as only 21. 7s. 2d., and this sum he received from the pri-oner. He had never signed the account in question, and knew nothing of its being presented. Mr. Penner, for the prisoner, contended that the charge of uttering with intent to defraud Woodcock must fall to the ground, as the prisoner had actually paid to him all the money which was due to him. As to the uttering at all, with a guilty knowledge of its being a forgery, he submitted that without the testimony of Shenton, who was not called, they could not be satisfied of that fact. There was no question as to thegenuineness of Shenton's signature ; he, at all events, believed the mark to be Woodcock's mark, and attested it accordingly, and he submitted it was imperative upon the prosecution to have called him to show the circumstances under which his attestation was appended. His Lomsoir in summing up commented on the absence of Shentou, who it was clear was a most material witness. Verdict—Not Guilty. The prisoner was then indicted for obtaining money under false pretences. It appeared tie had handed in a list of per sons to whom wages were due, amounting to 4/. Ils., re ceived the money, and appropriated it to his own use, there being in fact no such wages due to the individuals in quas tion. Verdict—Guilty. Sentence deferred. (Before air. Justice CILESSWEI.L.) RAWSON V. ANTHONY. This was an action by the plaintiff, formerly a hosier it! Mancheeter, but now a 4hurehrolier, to recover from the de- Although Mr. Baron Platt, in passing the awful sentence of death on the wretched man Smith, said that he could hold out no hopes of mercy on this side the grave, yet Mr. Alder man Sidney and the Sheriffs are determined to use every ex ertion in their power to obtain a commutation of the sentence, by getting it reduced to that of transportation, and a petition is already in circulation for signatures for the same purpose. to be presented to the Secretary of State, as the medium by which the royal mercy can be extended. The wretched man, as far as he is concerned, is fully prepared for the worst, and, in fart, from the time he delivered himself up down t, the present, he has entertained no hope of having his life spared. This feeling has been so deeply impressed on his mind, that it may be said to amount to that of fatalism. Oes cause of this incrbid feeling arises from the divination of a dealer in the occult sciences; fin- while be was in Giltspur street Lompter, he wrote a letter to the Governor, in which he stated, that when a boy of fi;e years of age, his parents had his horoscope cast, and they were informed that he would come to an untimely and disgraceful death ; that this prediction was always uppermost in his thoughts, and by no mode of reasoning could he remove this deep-rooted impression from his mind. When be was taken from the Compter fur re examination on Tuesday last, he then stated to the officer who removed him that he hoped that that examination would be his last, for he was fully prepared to meet his fate, which was inevitable; that he deeply and sincerely regretted what had occurred, but it could not be avoided. 11' hen he was taken to Newgate, Mr. Sheriff Sidney hap• pened to be there, and was in conversation with the chaplain. The worthy and humane Alderman instantly entered ints conversation with Smith, by asking him if he had taken any . steps towards his defence, and whether he had caused any gentleman of the bar to defend him. He replied than he had not, for he was quite prepared for the worst, and that he intended to plead guilty; that he had not the re motest intention a minute before he committed the dreadful act to take the lifeof the deceased, but during the absence of tee little girl Ann Wetenhall the deceased made use of some violent expressions, and jumped up from the chair in which she had been sitting, holding the knife which she hail in her band in a menacing attitu te, when he unfortunately having his cook's knife in his hand, and being goaded, as it were, to madness by her reproaches, rushed on he, and wounded her in the neck, and under the fatal impulst of the moment, and in a paroxysm of rage, he forced her head back and inflicted the deadly wound. Shy then staggered towards the door. As soon as lie observed what he had done be was horror stricken. The worthy Al derman remarked, that if such was the case, there were ex tenuating circumstances, and advi-ed him to obtain profes sional aid. Smith, however refused to do so, and the Sheriffs, therefore, directed Mr. Clarkson to defend the wretched man. That the dreadful act was the result of it sudden impulse there can be no doubt, for his fellow-servants on the trial spoke to his general good temper, and Mr. In spector Woodruffe in his cross, examination said, he hail known the prisoner for ten years, and he was the very lass man he should have thought would commit such an act When he was being brought tip from the gaol for trial he said he was aware of the result—that he was satisfied that the jury would find him guilty. When he was r,conducte,i back to the prison after the awful and dreadful sentence of death had been passed, he merely said that he was glad tha it was over, for he knew there was no hope for him. Since he has been in Newgate he has been several times visited by . his unfortunate wife, who has administered as far as she could to his wants and comforts. The result of the trial, it is understood, has had the most fearful effects on her, being as it were now left destitute with four young children de pending upon her. Should the Sheriffs and those who arc exerting themselves to save the life of the wretched man, fail in obtaining the royal clemency, his execution will take plate within a month, the Sheriffs having the power to suspend the carrying of the sentence into effect for that time. FROM THE RHINE. AUG. 10.—It was reported some time ago, that his Royal Highness the Duke of Nassau had asked for the hand of the Grand Duchess Cathe rine, younger sister of his dt ceased consort, daughter of the Grand Duke Michael ; but that the permission f'or this union bad been refused by the Chief of the Holy Synd (i e. the Emperor of RuSsia), as contrary to the usages of the Greek Church. It is said that the Emperor will now give his consent to this mar riage. Her Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess Catherine was born on the 23th of August, 1627. In her person and manners she is said to be a striking re semblance to her deceased sister, the Duchess Elizabeth. —Hamburgh Papers, Aug. 22. The child was, in the several counts, described as beiog known by the name of Thomas Davis al, and it was objected tOr the defence, that this was wrong, ioa , nueli as this 6e seription applied to the time of the otilice committed, when the child was cot known by any name. His LOILDSHIP thought the objection a valid one, but left the case to the jury on the facts whether tie prisoner had the intent alleged in he indictment, or whether, under all the circumstances, they thought she put it there from being at themomentnoableto pay better at,ention to it. Verdict—Not Guilty . . WiWear Scott, Henry Goss', John Smith, and Thomas B in croft, were indicted, the three fortner for a burvlary in the le.uSe of Mr. Wiffiam Lard.- at Manchester, the latter fur feloniously receiving a part of the stolen property. Mr. Sergeant Wilkins and Mr. flulter. conducted the pro secution; the prisoners Scott, Smith, and Bancroft were tie fended by Mr. Potluck. The burglary was committed on the 6th of April last, the robbers having effected an entrance by taking up tie cellar. grid. A quantity of silver spoons, forks, and other articles of a similar kind had be,n taken sway, together with some clothes from the hall. Nothing was heard of the robbers for upwards of a month after, when one of the Man chester police went to search Scott's home. Wh le the officer was there Goss came in, Scott having previously stated that he was a lodger. On swaddle , ben sonic keys were found, which were found to it some boars up stairs, and in them were found a great number of skeleton keys, a small crowbar, and other articles. lin the kitchen, under a cup board, was found a pair of slippers, the soles it which were composed of felt, and in the cupboard a dark lantern. Goss stated that the things found. in the boxes had been brought there the evening before by a Man who was called John, and who was a blacksmith by trade. Scott afterwards told the officer that Goss had not given a true descrip , ion of the man, and , that- that man and Goss had committed. the robbery. After being taken to gaol Goss wrote a letter to Mr. Beswick, the superintendent, sta.ing that Scott and he had committed the robbery, and that Scott had concealed some of the ar ticles under the cellar floor, and had some other articles under the floor of his bedroom On searching the louse the forks, &c., were found in a small box under the bricks in the cellar. Smith, in consequence of the description given by Scott, was taken into custody. lie lodged with Bancroft, and in Bancroft's house, concealed under a bed, was a small quan tity of linen, which wa identified as parr of the property stolen. Bancroft said he had got it. from Smith oh account of his lodgings, which Smith did not deny. After a long investigation the jury found Scott and Goss Guilty, and acquitted Smith and Bancroft. Scott, it appeared, had formerly been in the police at Man chester and had been dismissed for being drunk and fighting while off duty. His beat adjoined that on which Mr. Lord's house was. It appeared that some years ago he had been convicted of felony at the Carlisle assizes and sentenetd to transportation, but that sentence had been commuted. lie was also convicted at these ass:zes for having coining instru ments in his possession, they having been discovered at the time his house was searched in consequence of the present robbery.

One of those amphibious animals known as " mudlarks," who, like the heroes of several old ballads, " live on the banks of a stream," was charged with assaulting a lad named Edward Dyer, by throwing a handful of mud at him. The complainant said that on Sunday he was standing on the steps under Hungerford-bridge, looking at a number of boys (amongst whom was the prisoner) who were "scrambling" for halfpence thrown by people on the bridge into the mud, when the prisoner suddenly, and without pro vocation, took up a handful of mud and threw it at him. , An inspector pit the Thames police, who took the prisoner in charge, said that the practice of throwing halt pence from the bridge was a very great nuisance. A number of " bad characters," like the prisoner, assembled at the foot of the bridge every Sunday evenirg to "scramble" for- them, and were fighting and struggling in the mud, and annoying the passengers by throwing mud about and usingfoul language all the evening. The police could not do anything to put a stop to the nui sance, although one of the F and one of the L diviAon were constantly on duty on the bridge; it took some time to get down to the steps, and the boys always ran away as soon as they saw a policeman coming, and as soon as he returned to the bridge they went back to the place and laughed at him. Mr. HENRY said the police ought to speak to the people on the bridge, and request them not throw money to the complainant, 1 1 , r ode which, ei days' though rg p rh r i s i prisoner dl e t r i,d n 2 t fi n s of . o , t r e h r th i r i et i boys. lie was quite sure all respect , ble and sensible people would t g o i sentence on eait up. t him i 'l l se im sfaa , uullt was v,:ry insulting, and must be punished.

Coarier. We regret to state that Colonel Swale, of the Royal Marines, was seriously hurt on Saturday evening last, by the upeietting of the Chichester coach at Coshatn, near Ports mouth. The injury received by the Gallant Officer is a corn pound fracture of the leg. Two other passengers were also slightly hurt. The aecidant was caused by the breaking of the axle of one of the fore wheels. A CENTENARIAN AND SOMETHING MORE..

The past week's arrivals of all descriptions of Grain of home pro duce, including Flour, were on a very limited -cafe, tekeii coleciively. Front Scotland very title Grain came to hand ; but front Ireland the receipts of Oats were on the Increase. The imports of Foreign Wheat, Oats, and Flour were tolerably extensive. Fresh up, tally a moderate quantity 01 Wheat came to hand from our own coasts, and the actual quantity on otter was small. All kinds, owing to the unfavour able accounts from lreland respecting the potato cro:‘, moved off readily, at an advance in the currencies obtained on Monday last of from 2s to fully 3s per quarter, and at which a good clearance was effected b. the factors. The above advance slaws a trifling improve ment on Friday's prices. The show o' Foreign Wheat was not to say extensive. Holders were again very firm, and succeeded in ob taining an improvement in the value noticed on this nay se'nnight of from is to 4s per quarter. Very few samples a ere on offer In bond, and so little bu likes., was transacted in them that prices were a most nomi nal. Owing to the prevailing changeable weather, the progress of bar vestwork in the north has been very slow. Very li,tle English Barley was on show ; grinding parcels were in 11101ierate request, at Lull prices, but all other kinds were much neglected. The supply of Malt was limited ; superfine parcels ready for delivery commanded extreme r:tes. In all other kinds very few sales were reported. The show of Oats was very - extensive ; owing to which the Oat trade was nut quite so active as on Friday, nevertheless the trade was firm at an im provement on last Monday's rates of le per quarter. Beans were in good request, and the quotatiens had an upward tendency. For Peas the demand was brisk, and blue parcels c mmanded 6s to cs per quarter more money. to Flour we li,ve no alteration to report.

Notwithstanding the attendance of both town and country buyers was numerous, the Beef trade was somewhat inac tive, at barely, but at nothing quotable beneath. last week's prices, and a total clearance was with ditliculy effected.

CHEAP AND WHOLESOME PHYSIC.—The inhabitants of Hull have of late been undergoing a process of general purgation through the instrumentality of the oceanic salts with which their household supplies of water have been grt•ssly impregated. Complaints have very reasonably been made against the waterwork authorities for presuming thus to usurp the functions of the" faculty." — The Bui'der. KNIFE SWALLOWING.—The following singular case Occurred during the present month, in the practice of Mr. Gill, residing at Pentonville. A child, seven years old, living in Islington, swallowed, on the evening of the 6th of August, an open penknife, three inches long. The lad, a very sickly one, was subsequently visited by Mr. Gill, who f and the symptoms slight, consisted only of a little fever ishness, with occasional pains, and some tenderness over the lower part of the stomach. lle was kept perfectly quiet, the stomach fomented, and sedatives, with occasional doses of castor oil administered. On the morning of the sixth day, contrary to the opinion of some eminent physicians, to whom the case was related, tl►e knife was passed from the body, blade downwards, with perfect impunity to the pa tient, who rapidly recovered.

THE MOORS. PERTHSHIRE.—Sportsmen could not have obtained a day more favourable than the 12th for their first opera tions, and the success that has attended some of them shows that they must have been diligent in improving the favourable opportunity. The birds are represented as being as strong as they were ever seen at the - season of the year ; and, on the whole, the sport has been reckoned as good as could be expected. INVERNE=S —ln this quarer sportsmen found the 12th all that could be desired. rape-worm, we are sorry to learn, is prevalent this season—fatal to the birds in some moors; on others it is only suspected, from the grouse being less plump than usual. The de mand for shootings continued to increase as the 12th approached.—lnverness Courier. STIRLINGSHIRE.—On account of the previous rains, the grounds were uncommonly wet, and the birds, al though not scarcer than Jest year, wild, would not allow . 4 near approach. The sportsman had thus to be con tented with single birds, and the numbers bagged were not numerous.—Stirling JournaL AsaSHIRE.—In consequence of the soaked state of the grounds, wherever the heather was burned or short, -the birds took instantly in packs to the low grounds, where they were seen in flocks of from twenty to fifty. •On such moors or hills the best shots had no chance; and we have notice of several parties of two each, some of which never burned powder, and others that got only a brace or so each, afterhard fagging. On strictly protected grounds, owing to the wetness, the birds, though more plentiful, were also wild. In the vicinity of Barrhill, on the confines of Ayrshire and Galloway, game is abundant, and sportsmen are enj'ying much better sport than Was anticipate 1. On th 2 12th August, one gentleman, along with a ~f!Lwkeeper, on a single firm of no great extent, bagged 4(4 hrace. Another sportsman, on thy! same day, higgerl - 121 brace. The birds, however, are in rnoral interior in quality to those of last year. Ar Advertiser. Tau BEV. JAMES FORMBY V. THE GRAVESEND AND RoaitirrEa. RAILWAY COMPANY_—The dispute between the Rev. J. Formby and the Gravesend and Rochester Railway Company was brought to a conclusion about a month ago. It will he recollected that in the month of October last some labourers of the company were brought before the Mayor and magistrates of Rochester for cutting down some trees, the property of the reverend gentleman, when the parties were fined, and it was afterwards settled that all matters in dispute between the parties should be submitted to arbitration. The wall which the company had built for the Rev. Gentleman, who had given some land up to the company for the purpose of making a coach road from the station at Frindsbury, the award ordered, that as it was not built properly dint)i slcmild be taken down and rebuilt, which rgy has been done, and in addition a gateway of the Reverend Gentleman's has been blocked up by the company, by placing a nine-inch wall between the piers of the gates. which has mach annoyed Mr. Formby, and as the work men had been found to have done some damage to the gates, the subject was brought before the Mayor and magis trates of Rochester, on Saturday, the 22d inst., and John Parkes and John Ashdown, bricklayers, were charged with wilfully and maliciously damaging and spoiling two gates, and two piers thereof belonging to the Rev. Mr. Formby, which, under the Wilful Damage Act subjects the of fenders to the penalty of 5/. Mr. W. Hay ward appeared for the Rev. complainant, and Mr. Wickham for the defendants, this who pleaded not guilty. Mr. Hayward, in opening ca se, said his client bad acted through all the proceeding s from first to last with the greatest forbearance, and was about to enter into a brief history of the long pending di s p u tes between the parties, when the Bench observed that they had nothing to do with any dispute between the Rev. Mr. Formby and the Canal Railway Company, that took place six months ago. Evidence then was given by Mr. F o rmby's gardner, that the two defendants were on Saturday, the 15th, building a wall betwe e n e the a p n i d ers is of n it waster', g ateway. The gate was painted , smeared over with mortar. The damage done may be 1/. or 5/. lin the part of the defendants at Dartford,, Mr. Georgdeposede Ward, that an i he dependen t gentleman, living rave orders to stop up the gate, and it was done according to Isle ins'ructiens. T he bench convicted the defendants, 6d, damages, and costs 14s. • NINETY-SECOND MONLA.NDERS.—The head-quarters division of the gallant 92d Highlanders, under the Fotmnand of Lie l ztenant-Colonel lll`Donald, marched into this city on ThArsday, en oute from Belfast to Enniskillen , to relieve the 26411 Caraeronians. ordered to Dublin from that garrison. The men were billeted through the city for the night and proceeded on their march on Friday morning. The regi ment is composer) of fine soldier-like athletic young fel lows, and the band is one of the best, it is said, in the service. Our Belfast contemporaries express great re Bret at the departure of the gallant corps from that garrison. As their conduct, while quartered there, was most regular and exemp l a/ T. It is on the march that the irregularities of an y corps, inclined to be irregular, will be most observable, .and if the conduct of the regiment was such, while in Belfast, .as we observed during the short stay of the head quarter; division, and the other divisions that preceded it, in our city, to gallant regiment deserves all the encomiums the Belfast pesos has bestowed on L.—Ulster Gazette. • HORRID MURDER IN FRANCE, The Gazette de Tribunaux gives the following details of the murder in the Rue :dontniatre, the main facts of which have already appeared in the Messenger :—" Relatisns of business, which led at length to personal intimacy, had existed between M. Lejeune and M. Jay, the latter of whom has made his name we!l known by his mechanism, called Jayotype,' for which he has taken out several patents. M. Lejeune, who is a master tailor, is a remarkably good-look ing man, about 28 years old. As to M. Jay he was tuned of 40, and rather ill than good-looking. M. Lejeune, how ever, whose wile is young and pretty, had conceived a jealousy of M. Jay. His suspicions, which were at first vague, had latterly become more fixed, and to such an ex tent was his mind affected, that attic having broken off all relations with M. Jay, h e i s sa id to have informed the cam miFsary of police of the quarter, that if he should ever find M. Jay alone with his wife, he would proceed to the last ex &realities. Things were in this state when, on Tuesday morning, M. Lejeune told his wife that he had received a pressing order, which compelled him to set out immediately for Rouen, and at about few in the afternoon he proposed that his wife should accompany him as far as the railroad station, in the Rue St. Lazare. She did so, and did not leave him until she had seen hint take his seat in the train. This pretended departure, however, was only a feint. which has been practised by a thousand husbands, and which un tie tunately is almost always successful. Lejeune had no sooner arrived at the first station of Asnieres, than he left the Rouen train and returned to Paris by one from Versailles. He proceeded to the Rue Neuve Vivienne, and placed him self in a position to watch the shop of M. Jay. We are in formed that whilst he was there watching, he saw a letter delivered to M. Jay, which he concluded was from Madame Lejeune. About nine o'clock in the evening M. Jay, whose wife and children are in the country, left his shop, and gave instructions to his shopmen, which indicated that he would not return until a very late hour. He pro ceeded to the Rue Montmartre, followed by Lejeune, and M. Jay having entered the house where Madame Lejeune was, the husband after waiting some time went in also, and e l l og i it r tr o ob o l mu over ei a nr n gh d m s n a ee w aeri the aenin g d u . by means of a seco n d key w hi c h he carried p e netrat e d i n t o italtirktincithrtaisiesps pistol sight bed, fLroe jm v e i u i nthleii salostpocket g h a t cl fired at M. Jay, but his hand being aged his victim was untouched. He then drew forth tweouteau poignard, which he was in the habit of carrying in the pocket of his paletot, and stabbed Monsieur Jay in the breast several times. Monsieur Jay, attacked in his sleep, could offer no resistance, and expired after uttering a few words As to Mdme. Lejeune, she was more dead than alive, and could rather imagine than see the scene that was passing. When the unfortunate Jay was dead, Lejeune, who had in some degree recovered from his fury, went down stairs and sail to the porter of the house, "I have just killed my wife's lover; go aid tell the Commissary of Police and the Procu reur du Roi that lam waiting for them." The porter went instantly to the office of the commissary, M. Couesna, in the Marche St Joseph, exactly opposite the house in which this dreadful affair had taken place. When the commissary ar rived, Lejeune surrendered himself, and said he was ready to answer ti,r what lie had done. The commissary placed a guard aver him during the night, and on the following morning emit him to the Pertecture of Police. In the course of the day, the Pr, -, cureur Liu Roi had Lejeune brought to the house and confronted with the dead body. He repeated his former declaration with much valmness, and was then taken to the prison of the Conciergerie." The Gazette des Tribunaux states that Madame Lejeune has not been arrested, but is gone to reside with her family. Lejeune, alluded to above, appeared yesterday before the Court of Assizes of the Seine as witness in a case of robbery. He had been brought under guard from the Conciergerie to give his evidence, which amounted to nothing. He is a man of small stature, pale. and with fair hair. His appear ance is that of a German, and he speaks with a foreign accent. He did not appear much cast down by the position in which he is placed. WOOLWICH DOCKYARD.— It is stated that Captain Stewart, RN. (now acting pro tem.). is to be the permanent. Captain Superintendent of her Majesty's dockyard, and that Sir Francis Collier, C.l - 1., will be appointed one of the junior Lthds of the Admiralty.
