The independent electors of North Derbyshire,are worthy of their Representatives, and their Representatives are de se, wing of the support of such a constituency. Ai r .

GLAMORGAN ELECTION. ~. z ~. SWANSEA, AUG. 7.-1 now enclose you the exact state of the poll, at its close, for the election of the two county Members, which, I am sorry to observe, is not so favour ab'e as could be desired to the Reform interest Lord Mare (Tory) Mr. Talbot (Reformer) Mr. Guest (Qeformer) 1,593 I believe there has been as much regret expressed in the county at Mr. Talbot's position on the poll, as at Mr. Guest's exclusion, as he has been from conviction an un flinching Refin•mer during the several sessions he has been in Parliament ; but it has arisen from the same cause— namely, a very inefficient and late canvass, making too sure of success, and in many instances the business of the elec tion conducted badly. Not so at Swansea, where the Re formers nobly did their duty, as you may perceive by the two day's poiling I sent you at the above town ; there the right men stand at the head of the poll, and Adare in a mis•trab!e minority. On the other hand, the Tories were absolutely in the field three weeks before their antagonists, and their assiduity was in many respects an example to the Reformers, save and except the part the clerical men took in it ; their conduct was very bad throughout, and the• landlords drove their tenants to the poll, like sheep to slaughter. I never was an advocate for the ballot before Witnessing this election ; but I now feel a conviction in its favour never to be effaced. There has been some ax traor,-linary conduct on the part of some persons, which, When I obtain the necessary information, I will not fail transmitting to you. Notwithstandi ng t h e l engt h and severity of the last winter, and the backwardness of the spring, the harvest gene rally will not be later than usual. In the neighbourhood of Blackheath—viz., in the parish of Charlton, and the adjoining hamlet of Kidbrooke, the scythe and sickle are in full opera tion ; many acres of oats and barley are down, and a great quantity of wheat is in shock. The former averages but a slender crop, and very short in straw ; the barley is also short in straw, but from the late congenial rains the ear has much improved, and the crop generally cannot be complained of. The wheat has also much improved from the same cause ; and should the crops throughout the country not fall short of those in this neighbourhood, there is no doubt but a full average crop may be expected. Should the weather continue fine for another fortnight, the great bulk of the corn in this district will be housed in good condition. An inquest was held on Monday night in the bok”d-room of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, before Mr. W. Payne, the City Coroner, and a respectable Jury, on the body of James Stringle, aged 35 years. The deceased was a jour neyman painter and glazier, and between twelve and 'one o'clock on Saturday last was employed in cleaning the win dows of Mr. Thomas Arnold, the landlord of the Grapes public-house in Basing -lane ;be had placed a machine outside one of the second-floor window, and was in the act of getting on to it when, owing to the fastening pins being improperly placed, the machine canted in a slanting position downwards, ar,l precipitated the deceased head-foremost on to the footway. In descending his head and shoulders struck against the tail of a cart standing in the street. The force of the blow, which was tremendous, turned him round, and he fell on his back on the flag stones. He was raised up bleeding and insensible, and immediately conveyed to the Hospital, where, on a sur gical examination cf the injuries he had sustained, his skull was found to be extensively fractured in three places, as were all the ribs on the right side, and his left wrist was broken. The Jury returned a verdict of " Accidental Death." The hay harvest in the neighbourhood of Aberyst- With is nearly brought to a close, and the grain harvest will commence the beginning of next week. Rarely, if ever, has the soil of Cardiganshire been blessed with such abundant crops cf hay and grain as this season will produce.—Cambrian. Two Quakers resident in Philadelphia, applied to their. society, as they do not go to law, to decide in thfol:lveoavv ing difficulty :—A is uneasy about a ship that ought, to arrived, meets B, an usurer, and states his wish to have the vessel insured—the matter is agreed upon—A returns . is home, and receives a letter informing him of the loss of his ship. What shall he do ? He is afraid that the policy not and should B hear of the matter soon, it is all over with him he therefore writes to B thus :—" Friend B, if thee hastn't Elled up the policy thee needsn't, for I've heard of the ship." •-•—" Oh, oh !" thinks B to himself,—" cunning fellow—he wants to do me out of the premium." So he writes thus to A Friend A, thee be'est too late by half an hour, the policy is fill e d." A ru b s hi s h an d w i t h delight—yet 13 re fuses to pay. Well, what is the decision ? The loss is divided between them. Perhaps this is oven handed justice,' thongh unquestionably an odd decision. A public meeting was held yesterday at the Kink's Heim', Poultry, to institute a public subscription for the relief of th e reavers of Paisley, who have suffered great privation during the last four weeks. Mr. Alderman Pirie was called to the chair, on the motion of Mr. Hattie, M. P., and having hiiefly stated the objects of the meeting, introduced the Rev. Dr. Burns, and other members of a deputation sent from Paisley, to make known to the sympathising people of London the severe distress in the former town. Dr. Burns stated that 14,000 men, generally engaged in the weaving of fancy goods, had been for four months deprived of employment, and that the funds collected for their relief among their townsmen were t otally exhausted. The winter season was approaching, when their sufferings would be still more severe. It cost 1201. per Y da to keep these peaceabl e and we ll-di spose d men f rom abso lute starvation, and the society established in Paisley for their t7lief had already contracted a debt of 5001. Under these circ umstances he confidently appealed to the sympathy of the loeetieg. Several other gentlemen made similar statements, !Ind before the meeting separated a subscription was entered lil t° in th e r oo m, and a resolution agreed t o th a t an appeal should be made to the public at large. A respectable farmer, Mr. James Byrne, was fired at, and shot dead near Roserea, in Ireland, on Wednesday last, for taking land out of whi c h a d e f au l t i ng tenant h a d been ejected. o A dreadful murder was committed in Sligo, and another near Newry, List week. Alderman Smythe, of Limerick, got a notice cautioning him not to leave his house during the election, or death was his doom. AFFRAY AT WAKEFIELD.—In the midst of the conflict, Mr. Carter, jun., of Flush-Dyke Mill, Ossett e wear ing a blue card and rosette, fell, dreadfully vrounded. He was borne to the Strafford Arms, and surgical aid immediately called in. During the night lie bled profusely from the nose, and vomited large quantities of blood. Mr. Dawson, who was unremitting in his exertions, bled him a little before twelve, and left hint in care of an assistant. He was so much better in the morning that a little before six o'clock lie requested to get up, which was immediately complied with, and in the mean time his bed was made. During this time lie conversed with great freedom, and appeared to be remarkably cheerful. On getting into bed he fell back into a kind of stupor, in which he died. It was supposed that a suffusion of blood had takes place on the brain, and produced apoplexy. The frontal bone, where the chief injury was sustained, was dreadfully fractured, and several other bruises were received on different parts of the body. His disconsolate and distressed wife ar rived the following morning, but she was too late to see him alive, having expired a short time before. Among those who are severely injured we are sorry to enumerate J. Maude, Esq., one of the magistrates. He has received several severe wounds on the head, and now lies at the house of Mr. Ceseons, at the top of Wood -street. During the night he Vomited large quantities of blood, and the symptoms on Tues. rday afternoo n w ere o f a still more unfavourable description. Al• uy others were severely injured.—Doncaster Gazette. O n Monday afternoon, about five o'clock, Lord Milton, accompanied by 11. Latigham, Esq., arrived in this tow n with a carriage and four. In passing along George Row on his way to the Goat Inn where his Lordship intended to stop, the horses, on the principle of old associations, we suppose, suddenly halted ; the driver urged them onward by the application of the whip, when the cif-side wheeler and leader slipped and fell. We are happy to say that his Lord allip and his companion escaped unhurt, but the horses were seriously injured..—Northampton Chronicle.

CITY ELECTION.—The beaten faction are, as might na turally be expected, not a little sore and ill conditioned. Nor will it surprise any person accustomed to witness the habitual cunning and ill-disguised contortions of the Con servatives, when driven out of the field by Reformers, that the defeated candid.rtes for the representation of the metro polis'of Ireland, although writhing with pain and the sorest mortification, should assume a loud bullying tone, and swear that they are not beaten dejure—that they themselves ought to have been returned—that they will petition, that they will—for Messrs. O'Connell and Hutton are not duly re turned ! This vapouring, we repeat, is just what might be looked for from Conservatism-4t is the natural fruit of the Irish Orange -tree. Accordingly, to-day we have addresses from M essrs. W est and Hamilton, the burden of which is that it i s quite a mistake—however general the belief may be—.to suppose for a moment that they have been beaten. They (therefore) are not beaten—neither are they dishonoured or disheartened ! Mr. West's address is curi ous, and con c lud es t h us. Th e L earne d G ent l eman i n th i s precious document facetiously tells the independent electors Of the City of Dublin that " there is no ground for dejec. tion ;" adding "the battle we have fought has demonstrated this fact, that the principles avowed by our opponents have found their last Representatives in Dublin. What would have been our majority against Mr. O'Connell without the Government, or against the Government without Mr. O'Connell ? And•with their united efforts—efforts which hare truly raised so many of the dead against us—what would be the result of an election to-morrow, when 130 men, registered in February, would present themselves against the fictitious majority just declared ? Gentlemen, there is no cause for dejection ; our enemies have procured the return, but they have not beaten us in the election for Dublin. I did not yield to an apparent reverse when I had less ground for such confidence as I now feel—and while I can but ill express my gratitude for all the honour and kindness you have .shown to me,,l beg respectfully to assure you that I shall ever continue to be your faithful and devoted servant." The Mai/ echoes the words of the masters whose organ it is, and declares that " a petition to the House of Com mons, to rectify the Sheriff's. return, is now as needful as it is certain of success." Further on we find repeated that an unjust and illegal decision has, for the present deprived Messrs. West and Hamilton of the " decided triumph" which was justly theirs—and that " a Committee of the House of Com mons, however, will rectify, amongst other matters, this monstrous injustice ! !" We wish our contemporary joy of his friend's " decided triumph." We shall not quarrel with him for using such epithets as " fraudulent," although the " monstrous injustice" of the application is obvious. We can well afford to laugh at the idle menaces of a defeated party, and can allow the Mail to boast that in 1835 " a fraudulent majority of 217" was beaten down by the Conservatives. Ilow Mr. O'Con nell's majority in 1835 was reduced, every person knows. The proceedings of the Committee, and the adverse decision are all fresh in the recollection of our readers. Messrs. West and Hamilton will not again succeed in squeezing themselves into a seat, their right to which was extremely equivocal. We always regarded their unseating Mr. O'Connell at best as a legal usurpation. The ground for questioning the validity of Messrs. O'Connell and Hutton's return, taken up on this occasion, it appears is the decision of the Assessor with respect to the rights of freemen. The question was raised by Mr. Mart• Icy, Q. C., Counsel for Messrs. West and Hamilton, on Friday evening. It was this—that the six months required by the Reform Act, previous to registration, did not apply to freemen, whose rights were reserved, and who stood in precisely the sat situation that they did before that Act passed. On Saturday morning the argument was resumed by Messrs. Hutton, Close, and O'Connell. At its conclusion the Assessor delivered the decision against which so unfair a clamour has been raised by the poor vanquished would be City Representatives. CITY OF Dual. N.—There was the greatest rejoicing amongst the people here yesterday evening —large bonfires blazed in many of the streets, and many people voluntarily illuminated their houses. There was no mob-law, however, no cries of " Light, light !" The feelings of all parties were respected, and the night passed off in the most ex emplary peace. From the Conservative Committee-room in Dawson street we had, however, a specimen of the spirit of the party. A crowd of people gathered before the house sub sequent to the Members being declared, in order to indulge a very natural curiosity. But this was not to be done with out a penalty. A miscreant fired from one of the upper windows of the house, fortunately without wounding any one. The consequences might have been fearful had it not been for the prompt appearance of Town-Major White and Mr. Duffy (Police Magistrate), who happened to be at dinner in the street. Through their interference the crowd . were induced to separate peaceably, and a strong body of mounted police paraded the street until 12 o'clock. FINAL STATE OF THE POLL. The following is the state of the poll, as finally declared by the Sheriff : O'Connell Hutton O'Connell's majority over Hamilton 99 Ditto over West lO5 Mr. O'CONNELL subsequently addressed the multitude about the polling place, advising them to retire peaceably and enjoy their triumph as became the character of their cause. When the clergyman of Werburgh's church (Mr. Bir mingham) ascended the pulpit to deliver his discourse, every individual of the congregation rose and departed, leavinghim to preach to his clerk ! Why ?—because the Rev. Gen tleman had voted for O'Connell and Hutton. The same course was adopted in Si. John's (Tommy Magee's), the curate of which had also voted for O'Connell and Hutton ! TRALEE.—Maurice O'Connell's election for Tralee is endangered by a decision of the Assessor, Mr. Hickson, one of the Tory gentry upon whom the Government lately be stowed silk gowns. It would appear that in the certificate of registry of about seventy liberal voters the words " this day" are omitted in the body of the writings ; and upon this ground he disallows the votes, although the date is regularly attached at foot. Of course such an objection cannot stand for a moment before a Committee of the House 'of Com mons. O'Connell has gone down post haste to Kerry, with a view to grapple with the fribble. No Conservative can didate has yet been named for the county of Dublin. KILDARE ELRCTION.—OTONNELL AND RUTIIVEN.— Ruthven has ruined his prospects in this county for ever ; he has not the slightest chance of success. Everywhere the greatest indignation is manifested against him from his re ply to Mr. O'Connell, in which he vainly endeavoured to traduce the conduct of the Liberator. The accusations he has made have recoiled upon himself, and the people of the county arc loudly expressing their abhorrence of his con duct. In Kildare, where he boasted 1 e had such support, they are to a man unanimous in their determination to op pose his attempt. Mr. M. Costello and Mr. J. J. Murphy addressed the people on Sunday morning, and the general execration which followed the announcement of Mr. Ruth ven's name showed the manner in which they. regarded his attack on O'Connell. After mass a numerous meeting pt Rathangan was ad dressed by Mr. Costello, and other gentlemen. Ruthven's name was execrated ; but the greatest possible enthusiasm was manifested for O'Ferrall and Archbold. STATE OF POLLS, &ND NAMES OF 11E1113ERS RETURNED. EAST CUMBERLAND, Ara. 7. (Frc,m a Second Edition of the Morning AckerliBer and Morning Herald.) The return of Sir Francis Burdett for Wiltshire is amply compensated by the defeat of his brother apostate, Sir James Graham, for East Cumberland. The electors of that county had ample experience of the " Cumberland Farmer" —there could be no mistake about him. If the Tories rejoice in Wiltshire, they mourn in East Cumberland. We make no doubt that before long the Wiltshire Baronet will be sent to cheer him of Cumberland in his rural retirement, and perhaps assist him in bringing out a new edition of his letter, signed " A Cumberland Farmer."

FOREIGN OFFICE, AUG. 8.--A despatch, dated the 29th of July, 1847, has been received by the Right Hon. Viscount Palmerston, G. C. 8., her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, from George Vil liers, Esq., her Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Mi nister Plenipotentiary at Madrid, transmitting a note from the Spanish Government, of which the following is a trans lation, respecting the admission into certain Spanish ports of foreign coal, for the use of foreign steam-boats : (TRANSLATION.) " Sir,—The Minister of Finance has just made me the following communication : " I have laid before the Queen Regent the information lately obtained in consequence of the reiterated representa tions of the British Minister at this Court, and of the French Charge d'Affaires, requesting the revocation of the Royal Order of the 9th of April last,whieh modified that of the 31st of January of the preceding year, resp ec ti ng th e ad mission of for e i gn coa l ; an d her Majesty, desirous, on the one hand that no difficulties be placed in the way of the navigation of steam-vessels, whether national or foreign, but on the contrary, that every facility compatible with the • protection and encouragement which our own mines require be afforded ; and, on the other hand, of giving another proof to our faithful allies that the Spanish Government, naturally grateful, is not una ware of the important services which, in support of the na tional cause, are afforded by the vessels charged to guard our coasts ; her Majesty has been pleased to resolve that, although the 3d article of the above-mentioned Royal Or der of the 9th of April last declares duty free the foreign coal which, without being landed in our ports, is kept on board and consumed by the steamers, they shall for the pre sent be allowed to have two deposits in the Mediterranean, which are to be Barcelona and Alicant, and two others on the sea-coast, Cadiz and Corunila, upon the payment of two per cent., and the officers of the customs to have a key ; for this article, without ceasing to be in the free air, can be placed in huldit:gs which the masters of the steamers can provide themselves, and thus they will have a deposit cor responding to their consumption. All this to take place without detriment to the ameliorations which the General Direction and its Junta Consultiva have proposed, in order that they may be submitted to the Cortes for examination and discussion, to whom also immediate communication will be made of this provisional measure, which circumstances have obliged the dictation of. :" I have the honour to make the above communication to you, in reply to the note which you were pleased to ad dress to me upon this subject, and avail m . 3 self, &e.

A few days ago, two ycung men of distinguished ap pe :ranee, accompanied by a lady of - remarkable personal at'ractions, alighted from a splendid trave lli ng ca l eche at onl of the first Hotels in Paris. A valet and a femme de chamhre formed •the snit of the trio, who, accordink to tho postillion's statement, had literally showered gold en tho :road with rattle prodigality of the English of the giod alai times, when John. Bull scattered his guineas by handru:s between Calais and Paris. With a profound °beim:Le " mine host" conducted his guests to the best apartments in the house, and bowed and shrugged his acknowledp ments for the honour conferred on him in the preferen ce given to his lintel by such distinguished visitors. After a few days spent in seeing the lions of the metropolis, the two male exquisites who figure in our narrative stopped irk a dashing tilbury at the shop of M. Oubtille, a well-know:, eller on the Quai Conti, and, hating alighted, 01.11 '.red into a negotiation with hint for a complete set, of bril , liants for the elder of the two strangcrln Whose siatt4 was 6n the eve of marriage in London. To expedite the arrangement of the business, a drawing of the necklace, bracelets, &c., required was produced; and after some parley between the contracting parties as to the choice of this diamonds, the price, setting, and other particulars, the rosti ter was neatly adjusted, the ?welter agreeing to er,:cuto the order for 60,000 E, and the strangers consenting to his terms, on conditinti . that the brilliants were to be ready in a fortnight. It was alp agreed that the strancers were to call aga i ii i n about a week, to exa m i ne the diamonds with their sister-in-law, who had accompanied them to Paris, and on whose judgment in such eases they. had plac , cl implicit reliance. Within the period specified for their re-appearance, a carriage, the panels of which were decorated with v.n Earl's coronet, stopped at the jeweller's door, and the strangers again honoured his shop with their presence, and were shown to the drawing-room, accompa nied this time by a h.dy dressed in the first style of ele gance and fashion. The diamonds were again paraded and ni:nutely examined and criticised by the lady. Several of them were charged at her suggestion, but,. ere inspec tion had tertninated, the band of a de6achtLent of the National Guards, marching to do duty_ at the Tuileries, was heard in the immediate neighboirfriood. The Indy, who seemed particularly partial to military music, rushed to, the window. The gentlemen did the same. 'The complaisant and overjoyed jeweller could do no less than follow his distinguished customers, and, for a few moments, the whole party were . stationed at the balcony looking on the quay, The guard having passed, the jewel ler and his customers again attended to business ; a final selection of the 'diamonds was . made ; the whole were to be delive re d i n l ess t h an another week ; the price agreed upon was to be paid in ready money ; the bargain was conch:del, and the strangers took their departure. Chuckling with delight at the negociatiou which lie had comluctra with such diplomatic skill, the jeweller proceeded put his house in-order" and to arrange the diameadr, which had been rejected by his new customers, to his inexpres sib!e dismay, ice missed several brilliar,ts of high price. He immediately ran to the address given'by the strangers, and bad the mortification to find tnat their names and persons were totally unknown. Irlormation of the robbery having been given to the police, it was ascertained that several other robberies had been committed the same parties under precisely similar circumstances. The swindlers, how ever, were- ultimately arrested through the vigilance of the police, and in their possession was found a considerable quantity of valuable diamonds and precious stones, several of which have since been claimed by different jewellers of the capital. A vast quantity of unclaimed jewellery, how ever, still remains,. and, from. - this'eireumstatice, it is evi dent that the parties arrested must have exercised their-vo cation in London, er,some other capital, previously to their arrival in Paris. The swindlers, named Ulmann and Marx Levy, with their wives, who seem also to have been their partners in trade, have been fully committed for trial. . DUKE and DUCHESS of ORLEANS • - (From Galignani's Messenger.) The Royal Family are expected at St. Clr.tid on the 21st inst., and the Duk e o f O r l eans will se:t out, it is said, on the 24th, for the Camp at Compiet-ac. We have re ceived a letter from Havre, containing- some details of the visit paid by the Duke and Dutl:aeis of O r l eans to the New York p ac k e t, t h e Vilk de Lyon, whi c h w ill not be read with ou t i n t erest ;—""• 1 21te French an d American flags floated at the mast I dead, and a b ove t h em that of Meeklenburgh, which, the moment of the Roy al party coming on board, ";as lowered and raised three times in honour of the Duchess, amidst the hearty cheers of the crew, who were on the yards and in their holiday trim. The Duke and Duchess then visited this magnificent vessel in all its parts, the Captain accompanying them, explaining every object, and paying the most profound respect to the Duchess. On descending to the grand cabin, they partook of a sumptuous dejeuner prepared by. the Captain for the - Occasion, during which the Duke took occasion to say, in a tone ofgreat earnestness, I thank you, Captain Stoddard, for your reception of us, and I drink this gl ass o f w i ne with a s i ncere w i s h t h at peace may always exist between the United State; and France.' The scene in the cabin was at this moment very striking ; the Duke had stationed him self behind the Duchess, who had taken her seat at the head of the table, where were also seated the Grand Di o ass of Me Adenburg, and a galaxy of Ff, rich and A n ; lo- Ainer - can beauty. Near his Royal Highness were the Captain, the United States Consul, Mr. Livingstone, the Mayer, and other authorities of Havre, with all of whom he entered into familiar conversation upon commercial to pics. The off-hand manner in which the Duke gave ex-. pression to his feelings and opinions, seemed to diffuse qui versa! pleasure. He appears to possess an almost perfect knowledge of the English language ; and the straightfor ward, indeed, sailor-like openness of his mind gave a certain zest to all his remarks. It would have given me great pleasure, Captain, to have written to my brother an account of our visit to your ship, but he is now at sea--indeed, by this time he must be off Madeira ; however, he intends pay ing a visit to your country, and very probably you will see him there.' I give this verbatim ;it conveys a good speci men of the Duke's general manner of expressing himself, the characteristics of which are great simplicity and frank ness. The dimensions and fittings of the cabin seemed much to surprise the Royal visitants, particularly the Duke, who, on reaching the bottom of the staircase, and finding ' himself in a room wainscotted with finely polished maho gany, satin, and rose woods, instantly exclaimed,' c'est au ; perbe, superbe r Then advancing a few steps, and per ceiving the ceiling a couple of feet above his head, tout ceci est hie:l super be!" Then resuming bit English, " Captain, you have got a superb ship ; I never saw such a cabin before." The Duchess was more reserv'A, owing, per haps, to her timidity in speaking English,'lrat from the lively interest she seemed to take in every thing, her pleasure and astonishment were evidently very great. She has a very prepossessing countenance, eminently intellectual, with all that sweetness of expression which distinguishes the f a i r haired, bl ue - eye d ma id ens o f the North': During the whole visit of the Duke and Duchess, the worthy Captain displayed the most assiduous and delicate attention to his Royal guests. The Duchess honoured him with her arm, and under his guidance paced' with evident delight the broad white decks of his splendid ship. Immediately on ascend ing from the cabin, the Duke and Duchess turned round to thank the band of the National Guard stationed on the poop, the Duchess adding with infinite grace, Jc vois que ces lifessieu: s sort amateurs de niasi7ne: One or two things struck us es very fine ; the splendid appearance of the ship streaming with the colours of every nation, the yard-arms manned, the loud hurrah from the toni, as the state-barge passed with the Royal' party, the band of the National Guard striking up the Marseillaise,' and, lastly, tl.e deafening acclamations from the thousands collected on the quays. On leaving., the Royal Duke shook the Car_ tain most cordially by the hand, a bank-nate of 500 francs was then presented to him, through the medium of an officer of the suite, for the tars,' who instantly displayed their sense of this lib e r a l d ona ti on b y three times three,' given in grand style." The clerk of a watchmaker in the Palais Royal, availing himself of his master's known respectability, lately went to the shop of a neighbour to whom he was known, and 11,rrowed in the name of his master a Bank note for 500 f., with which he immediately entered a gambling-house, and lost it at play. Astounded at the position in which he had thus placed himself, lie fled from Paris and wandered he scarcely knew where, till he found himself at Bonniors, eighteen leagues off, hungry, exhausted, an d w i thout a sous.lie pawned hi s coat to buy a meal, and then returned home in despair to aid ) . mit himself to justice. He made his appearance on Saturday before the Correctional Police. His crime was confessed with every appearance of bitter repentance, which circumstance, with the eloquent appeal of his counsel, M. Rousset, and a declaration of his intention to go to sea, induced the Court to let him off with the mild sentence of only six days' impri-. sonment.—Galignani. Between the hours of three and four o'clock on Sa turday morning, as the gravedigger of Shoreditch chArch was at work in the yard, preparing for the Sunday's infrdrments, he observed a voluro:?. of smoke, accompanied by a strong smell of fire, issue from between the grating of one of th-_ , vaults under neath the principal aisle of the church , he instantly ran into the street & and with the assistance of police constable Johat Scot, No. 221, of the G. Divis..on, gave an alarm. The keys of the church were procured as quickly as possible from the churchwarden, and on entering it, the whole body of the Wilding was found to be filled with smoke.
