MONDAY JANUARY 10, 1848 The penalty of blood has been paid. .The noonday destroyer of three people has suffered the extreme punishment of the law. lie who slew without pity has perished without compassion. The outrage upon society was enormous, but the ignominious death of the murderer has satisfied the laws which were ordained for its protection. In the glad and cheerful month of May the house of the aged couple was male desolate. There was snow, and a chilling wind, and winter, when PATRICK REID looked for the last time upon the earth which is rid of him, and has cast him out. Vl'CAua lives, his judgment of death is respited, and rumour has it he will be pardoned; this is the snore probable as the real murderer, in his last mo ments, corroborated the confession he had previously made, and exonerated M'CAB E from all participation in the brutal crime. W e see in all this something to deplore, and something to admire. A British jury, a fter a c areful inquiry and by a well-considered verdict have found an innocent man guilty; for that lII`CABE is innocent, W 3 are bound at least in charity to suppose, an d perhaps th e ev i dence is consistent with this conclusion. The reformers o f our criminal la w are th us sup plied with a leading case, which they will n o t h esitate f * to press into the ir service ; and who can marvelh who advocate the abolition 1 they do so? While t hey punishment by death m a y in future Borne point with of effect to the circumstanc es of the recent trial at Y or k . We must at the same time admit that there is another reflection of an opposite nature, which natu rally arises at the present moment . The witnesses for the Crown were subjected by the young and talented counsel who defended REID to a most rigid and c are f u l cross-examination. The evi dence as t o ti me was t h ere by very much weakened, and the medical testimony was completely shattered. Dr. WEsT's analysis yielded altogether to Mr. DIGIIY Sex:noun's. Nothing, in fact, was omitted which itgenuity could suggest, or patience carry into execution ; and at the close of the case for the prosecution the jury were addressed at great length on behalf of the prisoner in a speech of unusual eloquence and power. Yet that jury, after three hours' sober and impartial inquiry, returned with a verdict of guilty. Thus, while our legal reformers are furnished with a plausible argu ment in the respite of M'Cane—while new, and, in the opinion of many, strong reasons are to be found in his condemnation for the establishment of courts of criminal appeal and the abolition of capital punish ment;; on the other hand, by the death of Rein, the strength of the law has been declared, the efficiency of trial by jury vin , !icateri, and justice once more has mightily and memorably triumphed. Perhaps, too, when we considell all the evidence produced at the recent trial, and btilance the probabi. THE SON, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JANUARY 10 ~E lities ; when we look to the case against M'CABE, and recollect the ordinary rules of human action, perhaps we say the solemn and unanimous decision of the jury is only weakened by the circumstance of a sub sequent confession, and that on the whole the verdict of guilty against Ram and M'CABE cannot be fairly quoted as an argument against our present system of criminal jurisprudence, or our time-honoured in stitution of trial by jury. There is another circumstance connected with this extraordinary case which should not be lost sight of —and hh t h o t g h h a w s e a c t a n l e n n o g t t h r e t g e r r e m t n t h a e t eexemplarythe p u career o the wretched criminal, most sincerely do we hope that the case may not be cited as a precedent, or made use of as an instrument of persecution. We allude to what has practically been the second trial of the murderer for the same offence, for though, according to the letter of the law they were regarded as separate offences, yet in its true spirit they were one and the same. In fact, the case completely came within the rule which had been deliberately laid down as a test by which such cases should be tried. It cannot for a moment be doubted "that the evidence necessary to support the second indictment would have been sufficient to procure a legal conviction upon the first." (See Rex v. Clark, 1 B and B 473 ; Rex v. Emden, 9 East 437; and Rex v. Sheen, 2 Car. and Payne, 634.) We are glad to see Mr. DIGBY SEYMOUR did not lose sight of this circumstance in his able speech, and we cannot express our opinions in stronger ,language than that ascribed to him by a Contemporary : "It (said the Learned Counsel) we search the calendars of crime in ancient or in modern times—if we turn to the history of criminal prosecutions recorded or traditionary—while on the one hand we can find no parallel for the wickedness charged against the prisoner at the bar ' • so on the other, can we discover no case in which more energy than has been exhibited in the present instance was put forth on the part of the prosecution, or more zeal and ability em ployed for the purpose of procuring a conviction. So long as that energy and this zeal were kept within their proper limits ; so long as they did not lead to a stretch of power, or to a departure from that spirit which prompts to a lofty, a dignified, and an impartial conduct ; so long they who undertook to investigate and trace out the author or authors of the horrid deeds at Alirfield, acted as the servants of justice; but the moment this spirit departed from them, and a desire to secure a verdict succeeded a zeal to punish crime, respect for the accuser merged in sympathy for the accused, and the servants of justice became the ministers of persecution ! " Suppose, gentlemen, a counting-house was felo niously ent:red—that a desk was broken open which contained in separate compartments gold, silver, and copper—that all the money is carried off—that a man is brought to trial on suspicion of having committed the robbery—that the indictment charges him with stealing the gold only, but from the evidence it is indisputably established that if he took the gold he must have been the person who took like wise the silver and the copper—that after a patient investigation he is acquitted by the unanimous ver dict of his jury—suppose further, that after this acquittal a resolution was formed to try him for the stealing of the silver or the copper, would it be fair ? would it be even and impartial justice? would it or would it not be substantially (for what have you or I to do with technicalities now ?) a departure from that rule and maxim of our civil liberty which says that no man shall beim be perilled on the same charge I "Gentlemen—ln what position does my client stand ? He comes before you already found not guilty ' of this murder. 1., it not clear upon the evidence that who ever slew Mr. Wraith was the slayer of his wife and servant? But Reid is innocent of the old man's death, unless the former jury forgot their oaths or forgot their senses. How, then, can he be tried for the murder of either of the females ? This is not to prosecute, but to persecute. It is not to try men, but to victimize them. It is to trample upon the princi ple of tria , by jury, and virtually to blot out the best and brightest page of our constitutional history "I respect the laws, and I hold in honour the insti tutions of my country, but it is one thing to respect the laws and quite another to respect those who em ploy them for a sinister purpose ; and I fear that when this second trial of Patrick Reid is published to the world, that the enemies and cavillers against that freedom of the subject of which England boasts and vaunts herself so highly, may have good cause to speak of our civil liberties as an utter mockery and a wild delusion I" We are sure we shall be pardoned for making this extract, which so forcibly and clearly expresses the opinionwe have not now for the first time put forward in reference to the circumstances of this remarkable trial. There can be scarcely any doubt whatever as to the course which the French Government is likely to pursue in reference to its illustrious captive, the great Emir ABD-EL•KADER. The Guizot Administration is too remarkable for the elasticity of its conscience to allow its conduct towards the hero of Africa to remain for an i , stant dubitable. M. PARMENTIER has not peculated in vain ; M. Le Comte DE 13aEssoN has not severed his carotid artery without advantage : M. Le Comte DE MORTIER has not brandished razors about the throats of his children ineffectively —as far, at least, as the development of his colleagues is concerned. The web of principles by which the Cabinet of the Tuileries is covered has been rigo rously stretched of late, and so roughly handled as to render it impossible that it could be other wise than most transparent. True, there has been a solemn guarantee of leniency to Aan-EL-Kanzft ; true he has received the assurance of a Prince of the Blood Royal that his departure for St. Jean d'Acre or Alexandria would be permitted by the Ministerial Councils of Paris; true, indeed, that it was almost intimated to the conquered chieftain that he might, at pleasure, retire to any quarter of Egypt or Pales tine, make a pilgrimage to Mecca, or take up his abode in the halls of Damascus. True, that the submission of the EMIR was utterly and entirely conditional, that his compact was readily acceded to by General LAMORICIERE, and as readily acquiesced in by the Due D'AUMALE. Still, despite these deliberate and authoritative agreements, there is every human probability that not one of them will he fulfilled. The Estitt has been entrapped, his sword has been forwarded to Louis PHILIPPE, his pistols have been conveyed to the wife of the Go vernor of Oran, his war-horse has been re tained by the successor of the Due D'IsLY, his liberty has been restricted to the garaen and the corridors of the lazaretto of Toulon—the Emit has been entrapped, cajoled, circumvented, or, to speak more plainly, he has been thoroughly and indisi.ufably bamboozled. We observe that our previous remarks upon the seizure of this extraordinary warrior have excited a very atrabiltous sentiment of indignation in our Parisian contemporary the Commerce. According to that journal, it appears matter of astonishment that one of the organs of public opinion in London (our selves) should conceive the possibility of the restoration of the Arab's fortune, and the ultimate revival of his puissance. It is incomprehensible, moreover, to the same journalist, how any one can dream of the com pletion of the arrangement entered into between ABD-EL. KADER and the Governor-General of Algeria. What guarantee, he exclaims, iwhat gua rantee can be afforded by the Esmt of his pacific be haviour when conducted to within the battlements of St. Jean d'Acre, or landed on the quays of Alexan dria ? That is surely a question which should have been decided by General LAMORICIERB before he consented to the demands of his prisoner; it is a conti ngency w hi ch should espec i ally have been re membered by th e D ue D 'A UMALE b e f ore h e com mitted the French Government by his distinct assurances. 13 it proposed to falsify the assertions of the Go vernor-General by a supposed imitation of the course followed by Lord Bezriimisi., in reference to the prouti , ;es made by Captain MAITLAND in 1815, when the Emperor NAPOLEON placed himself under the protection of the laws of England? Is it supposed fur a mo ment that the t wo cases are in the smallest degree analogous ? Is it pretended that the commander of a vessel of war is to be regarded ai equally entitled to arrive at such an extraordinary understandingasAtihgereGiao; BeforeernorGenthee ral of a gigantic colon y like apologists of M. GUIZOT can at all sortex oftenu parityate his principl es th e y mus t d e monstrate a between a Captain R.N. and a youthful statesman, ini tials befor e w h ose t i tles are prefixed t h e ma g ical Before the Cabinet of the Tuileries can gratify its animosities towards ABD-EL-KA DER with impunity it must obliterate from the recollection of Europeans those numerous dere lictions of duty, those various distortions of truth, and those repeated exhibitions of profligacy and in sincerity which have rendered it notorious and ab horred by the majority, while they have rendered it contemptible and suspected by the minority. Whatever may be the ultimate decision of the SOVEREIGN of the FRENCH and his advisers, whether they determine to imprison the EMIR within one of the " Gallic " strongholds, or to transport him to some securer portion of the globe, or to resort to some more dastardly and deadly punishment, it is certain to us that our original impression will prove correct, that ABD-EL-KADER is only worsted for the time being, not conquered beyond redemption. Ingenious as this renowned Exult has shown himself to be in the most terrible extremities valiantly as he has struggled to power through* so many disasters ; perseveringly as he has fought against a multitude of obstructions and a legion of disciplined troops—he is not to be de stroyed by diplomatic quibblers like the subordinates of Oran and Algeria—he is not to be quelled by the gendarmes of Toulon, his glory is not to be extin guished by the audacious duplicity of a GUIZOT, or by the insidious instigations of a BUGEAUD. The Genoa Gazette states that the news "of the entrance of the Austrian troops into Modena had produced a great fermentation at Leghorn. On the evening of the 27th ult. the people in a mass pro ceeded to the residence of the governor, and de manded arms with loud cries. It was not without difficulty that the tumult could be appeased. The day before a similar commotion had taken place at Florence. The Tuscan Government has decreed an extraordinary levy, twelve pieces of cannon have been already dispatched to the frontier of Modena. The Alba, of Florence, states, that a telegraphic dis patch, received at Naples the 29th, announced that the people of Palermo had gone en masse to the grotto of St. Rosalie, patron saint of the city, there to offer a new political oath. The Grand Duke of FLORENCE had issued a decree, inviting young men, from eighteen to thirty, to inscribe their names upon the volunteer registration ; the object of the decree is to have the army increased at once, instead of depending on the annual levies. Monsieur Buss', the successful negotiator of the Commercial League at Florence and Turin, was about to set out from Rome for Naples, to engage that power to ad here to the treaty. It was said that he would shortly be elevated to the dignity of Cardinal, and succeed Cardinal FERRETTI. Letters from Milan state that the inhabitants of Lombardy have agreed to abstain from the use of tobacco, in order to cripple the Imperial revenue. A disturbance took place at Milan on the 2d, on account of the appearance in the streets of several persons smoking—they were ordered by the people to desist, and on their continuing to smoke, they were set upon and beaten severely. The next day the official Gazette published a long proclamation from Baron TORRESAIN LANZ ENFELD, Director-General of Police, prohibiting, under severe penalties, all assem blages, riots, cries, writings on walls, or wearing cockades. The latter offence is particularly dwelt on, and the proclamation declares that it will in every case be punished with imprisonment, independently of other punishments specified by the law. A new motu proprio has been published by the POPE for the organization of the Ministry, which appears to have given universal satisfaction. The Administration of the Holy See is in future to consist of vine departments, namely, foreign affairs, interior, public instruction, grace and justice, finance, com merce, fine arts, manufactures and agriculture, public works, war and police. The chiefs of those departments are to compose the Council of Ministers. State affairs are not to be brought before that council until the Consults (the deputies) shall have exa mined them, and given its opinion. Ministers are to be responsible for the acts of their respective admi nistrations, and the subaltern officers are to be likewise accountable for the execution of the orders they may have received. The important affairs of the State are not to be submitted to the approbation of the SOVEREIGN until they shall have been discussed in the Council of Ministers. A letter from Berne, of the 4th instant, says : "A report was current yesterday that a revolution had broken out in the canton of Neuchatel, but letters received to-day from Neuchatel merely inform us that the Government, fearing some attempt at revolution, had sent some pieces of cannon to La Sagne and the Val de Travers. It appears that the Liberals of the canton, besides, seeing with regret the lamentable part played by Neuchatel, in the affair of the Sonderbund, cannot bear the idea of their ca pital becoming the seat of a congress whose object is to domineer over the Confederation. This is the way iu which diplomacy deranges everything, when ever it sets its foot within Switzerland. It is to diplomacy that we owe the war, and that it is which will force us to take up arms a second time, perhaps by interfering too much in our private quarrels." The Frankfort Journal of the 7th states that the King of PRUSSIA is about to publish an act of amnesty which shall include the Poles under sentence of death. The maximum of punishment will be within eight years seclusion. A law in favour of liberty of the press was also expected. Madrid papers of the 2,1 and 3d have arrived. A remarkable article, headed " Imminent Perils," appears in the Eco del Comercio. It intimates that not only is there no probability thus far of the Qualm having issue, but that the state of her MAJESTY'S health is so far from being satisfactory, that it is not improbable that, in a period more or less long, the question of the succession to the throne may be brought on the tapis, and it says it will be a terrible one, considering the hostility of England and France respecting it. It appears that the QUEEN had for several days previously been suffering from severe nervous attacks, which had excited considerable alarm. Her MAJESTY was, however, better, and had gone to the Opera on New Year's- day. The same journal talks of a new Ministerial crisis being about to occur, and puts forth a list of a new Cabinet, the chief features of which are the retire ment of NARVAEZ, and the entry of PIDAL to the Ministry of Interior, NARYAEZ returning to Paris as Ambassador. The new combination, the Eco says, was agreed on at a meeting of the principal Moderados held in Queen CHRISTINA'S house, at which the Duke DE GLUCICSDERG was present. General CONCHA would, it was said, be the new Foreign Minister, and General PazuzLe or FULGIOSO Minister of War. SARTORIUS would, it is said, have the Embassy to Portugal. The Duchess of Goa has been appointed Camerara Mayor to the QUEEN. The Papal bulls confirming the 26 Bishops ap pointed by the QUEEN had been received at Madrid. ESPARTERO has arrived at St. Sebastian, where he was received with the greatest enthusiasm. It was supposed that the Salamanca impeachment would be allowed to drop. A new Progressista journal called El Siglo made its appearance on the Ist January.

We have received the Paris papers of Saturday and Sunday. It was reported in Paris that ABD-EL-KADER had written to the Government requesting not to be sent to Egypt. Nothing certain was known as to the fate of the Emit, and the majority of the journals Were demanding that no faith should be kept with him. Even in the discussion on the Address in theßureaux of the Chamber of Peers on Friday, the suppression of the paragraph attributing the results obtained in Algeria to the prudence of the Duc D'AUMALB was loudly called for, lest, says the National, " it should afford a pretext to the Government to ratify the im prudent promise made by the Governor-General of Algeria." The Patrie states that the Ministers have deter• mined to'order ABD-EL•KADER to Paris, and then to transfer him as a prisoner to one of the citadels of the present G overnment of F rance can only b e consi deredratpsbas•poe papers r muchfte waste communicated a pa n y treaty entered into with tthe north. T oe to the ChaMbers by M. GuizoT on the subject of Italy are thus commented on in the Conatitatinnnel:-- t‘ What appears to be especially significative in the communication made by M. Guizot to the two Cham bers is the small number of documents. Whence arises this small number ? If there be other docu ments which are not communicated we may sup pose that it is because they would throw too mucl legal on the Ministerial policy ; if there be not others the Ministry has failed in its duty, and has not exercised in Italy the action which became France. Who can be made to believe that events have occurred in Italy c.f such gravity as the great manifestations of Leghorn, and of Florence, as the treaty between Tuscany and the Duke of Lucca, as the movements of Lunigiana, as the insti tution at Rome of the national guard, of municipal councils, of the Consults, without a dispatch being ex changed between our representatives and our Cabinet. What ! Pius IX protests against the occupation of Ferrara, Charles Albert places his army at the dis position of the Pope ; Charles Albert prepares his fortresses and his arsenals; Charles Albert concludes a customs' union with the Pope and Tuscany ; Charles Albert establishes the liberty of the press in his states ; Charles Albert changes a Ministry in a signi ficative manner, and accomplishes so many reforms that Austria causes almost public representations to be made to him ; and our Government has not six lines to publish to prove that it encourages the S'i vereign of Piedmont in that path at once liberal and national, or has not the courage to avow that it has r made common cause with Austria! A dispatch for Tuscany, one for Piedmont, not one for the king dom of Naples. This silence is eloquent. Yet an insurrection has broken out in the kingdom of Naples, blood has flowed there in streams, and hor rible acts have there been committed in the name of the Government—acts so horrible that even our Ministerial journal believed itself obliged to brand them !" These papers show that M. GUIZOT was engaged in furthering the views of Austria in Italy by every , means in his power, and that he actually remon strated with the YOPH for having protested against the occupation of Ferrara.' On this subject the Presse remarks— "As the language of the Government at Vienna becomes timid, so that of the Government at Rome becomes proportionally stern. In the protest of Car dinal Ciacchi, which was imtnediately confirmed by the Holy Father, M. Guizot at once found matter Of complaint. IR 1832, the time of the first invasion of the Austrians, who,—a circumstance worthy of note, —were called in by the Pope himself, the first step of M. Casimir Perrier was, to give orders by telegraph for the vigorous manifestation at Ancona. In 1847, the Austrians entered Ferrara, not upon the call of the Pope, but in spite of his protests, and the first step taken by M. Guizot is to blame the protests of his Holiness. To make loud complaints, to appeal to Europe against the act of injustice committed, what can this be but an instance of bad taste in Pius IX. ! The Minister of Foreign Affairs sends a courier to M. Rossi, instructing him to express his dissatisfaction to the venerable Pontiff and his prime minister. After this, can any one be astonished that the Govern:nents and people of Italy should be without any confidence in that policy which bends the knee at Vienna, imploring respest for nationality, and which can only find a certain severity of style, when it is thought right to reproach the Holy Father, at tacked in his sovereign rights, with having so legiti mately had recourse to a public protest." M.Guizor,on Friday; gave a grand dinner to MM. COLORED° and RADOWITZ, at which all the chief personages of the diplomatique corps were present except the Marquis of NORMANBT. The absence of the English Ambassador was the chief subject of con versation during the evening. M. GUIZOT has laid before the Chambers an additional document relating to Switzerland ; it is a dispatch from Lord PALMERSTON dated December . 27, ] 847. Its object is to show in what light the British Cabinet regards the declara tion of the Five Powers, made at Paris on November 20, 1815, by which the neutrality of Switzerland, as well as the integrity and inviolability of her territory, are guaranteed : " It was therein decided," sa3 s the dispatch, " that Switzerland should be invested with the privilege of a perpetual neutrality, so that no other power should be tempted to endeavour to induce her to be either an ally or an auxiliary in case of war. For that object the territory was declared inviolable, so that no foreign troops could enter it, or cross it in order to at tack another country; and in order that the Swiss Confederation should never be drawn away by senti ments of partiality to depart from that strict neutrality which ought invariably to characterise it relations with other states, the Five Powers declared that Switzer land ought to be independent of all foreign influence. The Government of her Majesty thinks that it is highly important for the general interests of Europe, as well as for the honour of the Five Powers, that these engagements be strictly and literally observed; that as long as Switzerland abstains from all acts in disaccord with her character of neutrality, the in violability of her territory should be respected, and consequently that no foreign troops should enter that territory ; that the liberty of Switzerland and her independence of all foreign influence, ought to be maintained, and consequently that no foreign power ought to endeavour to exercise a dictatorial authority in what regards the internal affairs of the Confedera tion. Doubtless if the Swiss assumed an aggressive attitude with respect to their neighbours, the neutrality and inviolability guaranteed to Switzerland could not free them from the responsibility of their aggressions. But up to this time the Swiss have not committed any such agression. Her Majesty's Government is therefore of opinion that the declaration of Nov. 20 subsists in all its force, and that it ought to be ob served and respected by all the Powers which took part in that convention."

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton in the Liverpool market, on Sa turday, were 3,500 bales, at steady rates. Railway Shares improved a little. The iron trade, tarhieet even during the period of the monetary disasters has been comparatively prosperous, is now very depressed. It is stated in the Birmingham Gazette, that " From the unfortunate feeling that exists among the workmen connected with the coal and iron trade, it appears rather important that we should announce the result of 11 - :e preliminary meeting of ironmaaters, held at Dudley on Tuesday last; and we ate happy to be able to report that the utmost unanimity prevailed through. out their proceedings. After a full di,cussion of the important topics of prices and waves in all their ultimate bearings, a reduction of 2L per ton upon manufactured iron from the nominal prices of last quarter day, was decided upon by a very full meeting without a dissentient voice, and a confirmed determination was emphatically expressed to carry out a reduction in wages according to notices given. It was judged that this was pushing the re ! duction upon iron quite as far as circumstatices would warrant, and sufficiently to produce any benefi cial effects that might be expected from lower prices. It rests with the ironmasters indivi rdually, by a firm adherence to such arrangement at the next quarterly meeting, to induce a return in con• fidence, an animation in fte trade. The stightest giving way or wavering woul i prolong the present inactivity, and retard the giving out of orders that are now abun dantly remaining in abeyance. As this is lolly under stood and felt by the trade in general, it is hoped that the quarterly meetings will pass off more satistactorily than was previously anticipated." The Corn Market to-day is steady. The packet-ship American Eagle, Captain M. Chad wick, has arrived off Lewes. The date of her accounts is the same as those received by an arrival at Liverpool. The statements in the Madrid letters concerning the health of Queen Isabella have excited some uneasiness, but it is remarked that her Majesty could not have been much inconvenienced, or else was badly advised, to con tinue the pursuit of pleasure. There has been a further improvement in the Consol Market this morning. Some purchases for the Account have been made at 86k ; for Money the same; but now the rates are a shade lower. The premium upon Ex chequer-bills opened at the high rate of 225. A sale has just been made at 20s. premium. Bank Stock is very susceptible of change, having, soon after the commence ment of business, been bought at 192, aud just now a sale has been made two per cent. lower. India Stock has advanced to 234. India Bonds are at 10s. premium, and the New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. are at 87k4. The temporary indisposition of the Queen of Spain, as noted above, had not the least effect upon the value of the Bonds here to-day. The Five per Cents. are at 19i, and the Three per Cents. at 29k. The Portuguese Five per Cents. have been sold at 76, and the Four per Cents. at 24i: The Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been at 54i- and without the dividend; and the Four per Cents. at 84k 4. For Brazilian Five per Cents. there is a fair demand at 80f. The Railway Share market has the aspect of more firmness to-day, but it cannot be said that business is by any means brisk. There has been a full attendance of parties entitled to receive dividends at the Bank of England this morning. ONE CLOSING i•RICES OF BRITISH FUNDS. O'CLOCK.

B.—The James, of Belfast, New castle to Calway, bits been assisted in leaky, with part EXECUTION OF THOMAS SALE (THIS MORNING.) At eight o'clock this morning this wretched man underwent the extreme penalty of the law in front of Newgate, for the murder of Mr. Bellchambers. Since the attack upon M'Coy by Sale, a very marked alteration has taken place in the latter's con duct, and instead of the sullen, morose, and, at times, violent demeanour which he exhibited, he appeared to be fully alive to the awful situation in which he was placed, and listened with a quietness and marked at tention to the exhortations of the Rev. Mr. Davis, the chaplain of Newgate. Long before six o'clock, although the morning was dark and piercing cold, a number of persons had col lected in the vicinity. The sheriffs and under-sheriffs arrived at the prison shortly before seven n'elnek, and after that time the crowd began to pour in from all parts in shoals, and by eight o'clock every avenue and vicinity of the gaol where a sight could be obtained was densely crowded. Precisely as the clock of St. Sepulchre's struck eight the bell commenced tolling, and in less than two minutes the Rev. Mr. Davis ascended the scaffold reading the Burial Service, fol lowed by Sale, who Walked firmly and boldly up the steps without assistance, but without any appearance of bravado. He looked boldly to the crowded assem bly of uplifted faces, and having made a low bow, without uttering a word, took his station under the fatal beam. The executioner immediately placed the cap on his head and adjusted the noose, and in another minute he was launched into eternity. His struggles appeared to be very short. The Rev. Chaplain conti nued in front of the wretched man until he gave the signal for withdrawing' the fatal bolt. The body having hung the usual time was cut down, and will be interred within the gaol this evening. Mdlle. Jenny Lind, the celebrated elephant, whose disinclination to tread the boards of Drury-lane Theatre was evinced by various antics in the streets adjacent abont nine months since, previous to her appearance in the grand spectacle of the Desert, produced at Easter last, is about to take her departure for America, to astonish our transatlantic brethren with her sagacity, together with the male elephant and nine camels pur chased by Mr. Batty at Hughes' mammoth sale at Vaux hall-gardens, in November last, the whole having been sold to Mr. Sands, for his American Circus (the gentle man H ho was co-lessee with Mr. Van Amburgh, of the English Opera House a few years since), at the sum of 2,0001. We are happy to congratulate Mr. Batty upon the success of his speculation on that occasion, and trust his energy and enterprise, whether in catering for the amusement of the public or his own individual profit, will always meet with the same success. We are given to understand they will leave for New York by the packet-ship Prince Albert, Captain Meyer, which sails on the 28th of this month, and we sincerely hope that Mr. Batty will give the juvenile portion of his auditory who throng his theatre at this season of the year an opportunity 'of witnessing their performance before they take their departure. The good service pay of twenty-five shillings per diem has been conferred upon Major-Generals Richard Egerton, C. 8., and Sir W. Chalmers, K.C.H., the for mer dating from the 18th December, he latter from the *oth December last.—United Service Gaz'tte. - ' Lieutenant-Colonel Lheureux, orderly officer of the Minister of War, left Paris with dispatches on Thursday, it is said, relative to Abd-el-Bader. ti of cargo thrown overboard, and damaged, having Pm on shore on the Est Barrow Heads. 9th.—The ar , garet, of South Shidds, flartlepool to London, was to _ tally lost this moring on the Gun feet ; crew sated.

The arrivals of W heat of home produce up to our market lust week, coastwise, were on a fair average seaie, they having exceeded 6,000 quarters. Those of all other kinds of English grain, as well as Flour, were small. A few Oats c a me t o hand from Ireland and Scotland ; while the imports from abroad consisted of 15,533 quarters of Wheat, 1,300 ditto of Barley, 2,385 ditto ot Oats, 2,376 ditto of B eans , 420 di tto o f P eas, an d 420 ditto of Indian Corn. No foreign Flour came to hand, and the principal portion of the supply of Wheat was derived from Russia. Fresh up this morning, a fair average quantity of English Wheat reached us from Essex and Kent. From Suffolk, Cam bridgeshire, &c., the arrival was small. The weather having become seasonably fine—a sharp frost having been experieiaced to-day—the condition of the samples on offer was considerably improved, owing to which, and the increased attendance of buyers, the demand for all kinds of English Wheat was steady, at fully, but at nothing quotable beyond, the prices obtained on Monday last, and at which a good clearance was effected by the factors. With foreign Wheat wo were toleably well, but not to say largely supplied. Fine dry samples ' moved off steadily, at full prices, and there was a better demand for the middling and inferior kinds, at late rates Notwithstanding the fresh supply cf Barley was small, the show of samples, most of which were left over from last week, was more than adequate to meet the wants ot the dealers ; hence the trade ruled dull, and, in some instances, the rates had a downward tendency. The best parcels of Malt were in moderate request, at late rates. In the secondary sorts, next to nothing was doing, yet we cannot call them cheaper. The total quantity on offer was not large. The total supply of Oats was small. Sound Corn was in steady request, at full prices. In other qualities com. paratively little was doing. Both Beaus and Peas were heavy, at barely stat•onary prices.

With foreign stock we were very scantily supplied this morning, the numbers consisting of about 100 Beasts, 300 Sheep, and 6 Calves. The quality of the former was tolerably good, that of the two latter descriptions of stock interior. The numb( rs of home-fed Beasts were seasonably good, and we observed a marked improvement in their general weight and condition. Although the weather was very favourable to slaughtering, and the attendance of buyers was good, the Beef trade, as the butchers had a better choice of supply thaw for many weeks past, was not so brisk as might have been anticipated. Still, however, it was firm, at prices fully equal to those paid on Monday last, the primest Scots pro ducing from 4s 10d to 5s per gibs, and a clearance was effected prior to the close of business. From the north ern grazing districts we received about 800 shorthorns; from the eastern counties 300 shorthorn; &c ; from the western and Midland ditto, 1,000 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c.; from other parts of England, 700 of va rious breeds ; and, from Scotland, 220 Scots. With Sheep we were again fairly supplied, both as respects number and quality. The primest old Downs moved off steadily at full rates of currency. Other breeds of Sheep were slow in sale at late figures. Calves, the supply of which was moderate, sold steadily, and prices were well supported in every instance. The Pork trade was by no means active, ye supported. The fine store lat full currencies. t previous rates were well nimals on show were taken Per albs. to s e. d. to s d.

The arrivals of Potatoes coastwise have been on a moderate scale since our last; while the imports from abroad have not exceeded 80 tons, chiefly from Belgium. The best parcels are in good request, at very full prices, but other kinds are a slow sale.—York Regent's, 120 s to 140 s ; ditto, Shaw's, 1108 to 120 s; Scotch Reds, 100 s to 120 s; ditto, Whites, 100 s to 110 s ; Hamburgh, 80s to 100 s ; Kent and Essex Regent's, 100 s to 140 s; ditto, Shaw's, 1003 to 120 s; ditto, Blues, 120 s to 130 s ; ditto, Kidneys, 110 s to 140 s; Wisbeach Regent's, 100 s to 120 s; Dutch, 90s. to 100 s. BOROUGH HOP MAHMET. Selected parcels of new Hops are in steady request, at fully the late advance in the quotations. Although several speculative purchases have been made in other qualities, the amount of business doing in them is not larger; but prices are well supported. Old Hops are very dull. New Hops:—Sussex pockets, 2/15s to 3155; Weuld of Kent ditto, 31 to 31 10s; Mid and East Kent ditto, 31 Gs to 51 14s per cwt. WOOL. The imports of Wool last week were very small, viz., 47 bales from Monte Video, and 219 ditto from Odessa. For Foreign Wools the demand by private contract is in a very inactive state, but English qualities are command ing rather more attention, at full prices. TALLOW. The stock of Tallow being on the increase, the de mand is in a sluggish state, at about last week's quota tions. P. Y. C., on the spot Is 44s 9d to 45s per cwt. For forward delivery very little is doing. Town Tallow is 47s 6:1 to 48s per cwt. net cash; Rough Fat 2s. Sid oer B!bs. THE ACCIDENT AT THE EUSTON-SQUAB STA TION.—INQUEST THIS DAY.—An inquest was held this morning, at the University College Hospital, on the body of John Shea, the labourer, who died in the hos pital from the injuries which he sustained in the tall of the new buildings at the station of the North-Western Railway in Euston-square, on Thursday last. All the witnesses concurred in opinion that no greater care could have bee❑ taken in the construction of the wall columns and scaffolding, and that it was impossible to account for their giving way. The jury found a ver dict to the effect that '•'l he deceased came to his death . by the accidental telling of a wall and scaffolding, &c., and that there was no evidence to show by what means the accident occurred." 11 t,4 - 5914 11 % 43 1% 7 A - 71,i - 1% 31 1 % 13% 12% 9% 75 34!4 11% 5A I
