TEMPLETON, Late Reporter for the " Manchester Times." W. S. Orr and Co., Amen Corner, Paternoster .row,Tondon ; Bancks and Co., St. Ann's-square, and Heywoiod, Oldham street, Manchester ; and may be had of all Booksellers. By these Lessoas any person may make himself acquainted with stenography in an incredibly short time. The author re quests attention to the following notices -- " Possessing at least fifteen years' practical experience, and having read every system of short-hand I could obtain access to—having myself a collection of about sixty different systems, printed and in MS.—I may say that, as it appears to me, you are the first to strike out of the beaten path of steno graphical writers and teachers, in the mode of your instruc tion and order of your lessons I think a more rapid progress may be made in the knowledge, not only of your particular system, but of the principles of the art generally. by your book than by any other I have seen."—Let ter from Mr. .1. Harland, Reporter, Manchester Guardian. " The simplicity and orderly arrangement of the lessons are such as we have never seen equalled ; indeed, nothing better adapted to the wants of students of short-hand could be de sired or conceived."—Manchester Courier. • ' • " ....- " From the clear and easy rules laid down in it to instruct the learner, it is one of the best works en short-hand that a student can possibly lay hold of ; and, viewing it in comparison with other works on the subject, we do not think it has a com petitor."—Manchester Times. " We have looked through this treatise with much satisfac tion, and believe we are safe in recommending it to the atten tion of all intending students of the art, as the most complete, sensible, and practicable system ever brought under our notic e." —Manchester and Salford Advertiser. " The arrangement of the lessons is at once novel and ex cellent, and the instructions are conveyed in clear and perspi cuous language. We have no hesitation in saying that the learner needs no other instructor than this little work to enable him to acquire the art, and to practise it with suceess." —Leeds Times. " We have read this little treatise very attentively, and have no hesitation in pronouncing it the best work on the subject that has yet been published."—Post Magazine. " Mr. Templeton's character as a short-hand writer, in con nection with the press for a number of years, is a sufficient guarantee of the practicability and excellence of his system." —Manchester Chronicle. " Mr. Templeton's great experience and general accuracy as a short-hand writer entitle his observations on the teaching of the art to careful attention. From our own knowledge of Mr. Templeton's capabilities, as well as from a careful perusal of his work, we have formed a very high opinion of its merits." —Leeds Intelligencer. " Among the best works on this branch of science is one lately published by Mr. P. B. Templeton, a gentleman who has been a long time connected with the English press, and who is as skille I in the praedce as in the theory of short-hand writing:"—Dublin Pilot. The exercises given only require a little attention to be understood ; and we may venture to assert, that with Mr. Templeton's six lessons as guides, if the learner possesses ap plication for study and opportunity for practice, he may ac quire, in a short time, sufficient knowledge of short-band to be able to follow the most fluent speaker."—Dublin Evening Packet. We have read this little book with great care and attention, and we feel no hesitation in recommending it as the very best treatise we have ever read on the science of short-hand. It is the practical work of a practical man. Nothing is laid down by the author as proper to be clone that he has not himself found to be so—and that the writer of this, who has had some fifteen years experience in the Law Courts, at public meetings, and in the gallery, does not cordially approve of."—Planet. " Those who wish to know short-hand, and desire to prac tise it, as they see it every day used by those connected with the Press, will learn ' the six lessons' by Mr. Templeton, and persevere with them. Those who hare a desire to be deluded —to lose at once their money and their time—will deal with the advertising quacks who prof es to make men accomplished stenographists in a few days—they might as well profess to teach a child to read in six hours from the first moment at which it commenced learning its alphabet. Mr. Templeton professes no such thing. He gives six good lessons in short hand—and he leaves them to the learner, with soutul advice, that requires only to be followed to be most profitable."—Bell's New Weekly Messenger. " After giving Mr. Templeton's book a careful perusal, we have much pleasure in rec,arnr ending it as toe best work on the subject we ever happened to meet."—Bolton Free Press. " The student will find this a simple and easy system. The alphabet, the prefixes, and terminations, as well as the arbi traries, appear to be easy of acquisition, and judiciously selected for rapidity in writing, while the rules and exercises aro so plain and succinct that they cannot be misunderstood."—York Herald. " To those who are about to engage in tl c study of this use ful and interesting science we would point out this cheap little, work as worthy of their attention, feeling assured that the carrying out of the system laid down will enable them to realize most of the great and important advantages connected with it. It is written by a practical man, one who has had many years experience in short-hand writing, both for his own private purpose and for the benefit of the public in connection with the newspaper press in come of the largest towns in this country."—Yorkshireman. Besides these the opinions of nearly fifty other periodicals might be quoted, all of which speak equally in favour cf the merits of this little work.

The Work which is now presented te the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, which far some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the ordinary practitioner. Te enter into the details ef these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence,. in certain habits, would be entirely out •f place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation et a PA RENT, a PRECEPTOR. or a CLERGYMAN. Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and Five ill Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re quslsted to be as minnte as possible in the detail of their cases, —as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the communication must be accompanied by the " usual Consulta tion Fee of 1t.," without which no notice whatever can be taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable secrecy may be relied en.

Mr. Burrell appeared on behalf of the prosecution, and Mr. Cleekeon defended the prisoner. The circumstances cf the ease v ere of a very extra ordinary character. It appeared that the prisoner had Only been msrricd to hit wife a few months when the idea of her Le:eg unfaithful to him entered into his imagination, nod the affection he before appeared to entertain for her seemed to be turned to the dradliest hate. He continually ill-treated her, and ho threatened that if sho told any one he would murder her, and this threat had the effect of preventing ber friends from being made acquainted with his conduct. Things went on in this way until the 114th of November, when the prisoner returned home about tea-time, evidently in a very excited state, and he immediately took two pokers, and went into his bed-room. His wife followed him, but she had no sooner got into the room than he secured the door, and in a few minutes he attacked her with one of the pokers, felled her to the ground, and with a knife slit one of her cars, and inflicted a severe wound on t h e side of her head. The unhappy young woman struggled as well as she could, but at length she fell senseless across the bed, and covered with blood. By this time the neighbours were alarmed, and they ran to the spot; but the prisoner declared that he would murder the first who en tered, and they all stood aloof, alarmed at the dreadful threats he uttered. While they were standing outside the room, the prisoner was heard to sob violently, and to kiss his wife, and say, " Come, and kiss me, Bess; I know you are innocent—come into my arms and die." The persons outside begged the prisoner to let them in, but he decla ed he would murder the first who entered, unless his wife said that he was wrong; upon which the poor woman called out, in a faint tone, " You arc wrong, Robert." He then ()Feud the door, and, when the people went in, be fell senseless to the ground, apparently completely ex hausted by the violence of his feelings. His poor stile was in a most dreadful condition—one of her ears was completely divided, and her head was wounded, and her body bruised most severely, and a bent poker, with which the blows had been inflicted, was found in the room covered with blood. The prisoner was secured, and the wife's condition was considered so precarious, that a Magistrate attended at her bed-side the next day to take what she might say as a dying declaration. After a inoctl 's confinement, however, the injuries took a favourable turn, and she was now stated to be almost entirely recovered. When the case was called on, Mr. CLARKSOS said that he appeare4 on behalf of the unhappy man at the bar, and upon looking at the depositions he saw that the utmost he could hope to cif et was to shield him from being con victed of the capital charge. It was a melancholy me, cot teinle, and he le lieved that the act must have been committed under impressions which the prisoner was now wed aware were quite erroneous. He had, however, no doubt committed a grave offence, and the best that could be done in his behalf was to consent to a coevic ion for a most eegeavated assault, but be hoped the Court would allow him to state that notaitl:standing what had occurred, tee priioner's wife prA3ed tliat a Icaient scntenee might be passel upon him, and when he regained his liberty she would be qu:te resdy to live wi'h him rg-iir. Lord DENNIAN said he had looked at the depose ions and it appeared to him to be a most dreadful case. If the proaccutiix thought that a verdict of assault only might be taker, he would not object to it, but still it would be a case callivfor severe punishment. cf N. 20.

When the window was open in fie passage, I fonui it impossible to throw anything in the position where the raz :r was found ; there is not sufficient play between toe barn of the window to throw anything to that place. Mr. Thomas Jobson was at the Angel-inn, Lullow, on the 19th of August ; was awoke about four o'clock in the morning by a cry of " Fire !" Looked out of the window into the yard, but saw no one there; must have seen them if there had been any one there. Richard Hammond, police-of eer cf Ludlow, se,rehed Mr. Whatnner.fs yard on the 0 0th of August, about six o'clock is the morning, and found a razor ; it was wet with blood ; there was a little dirt on the edge of the blade; it ayes nut closed ; went int ) the prisoner's room just hefore six; was in bed ;he said he had been up in the other room and was just going to sleep ; he was covered up with the sin2.et over his head.

John Hewitt, of Ludl,..v, se irclie3 the pri sor,er's lodgings at Birmingham, and found a black-handled razJr in a porianaateau, containing some shirts marked JGzil!t M:ster. George Hathaway, ostler at the Angel Inn, Ludlow, four, i a pair of cotton stockings on the 21st of October in an old brewhouse, it a grate that was not used; saw the prisoner in the yard on the 2011 of August, near the brevlcause ; gave them to Mr. Davis, the gaols', who pro duced them. They we:e stained with sometling, but Mr. Hodges (the surgeon) cud not say if they we:e stains of blood. Mn Dowre:, Town-clerk of Ludlow, went to the Angel Inn, Ludlow, on the 20th of August, and directed the pri soner to be taken into custody. He said he had slept at Worcester on the Tuesday night, and that he came by the Red Rover coach. Asked him where he joined the coach ; I c sand he walked from Worcester to Woofferton, and got on thee. lie said. be was at Birmingham on the Saturday previous. Ile afte•wards said he walked from Worcest r to Ludlow and back from Ludlow to Woeffer ton, intending to go to Leominster, but he changed his mind, and came back by the Red Rover to Ludlow. Mr. VALENTINE LEE then addressed the Jury for the prisoner at great length, commenting on the evidence, and poiating out several circumstances which ought t) decide the Jury in bringing in a verdict of not guilty. Ile concluded by quoting Lord Hale's aphorism—that it was better that ninety-nine guilty persons should escai e than one innocent man should suffer—and earnestly entreated the Jury to give their verdict with caution and care. If they had any doubt;, law, justice, and religion, demanded a verdict of not guilty. His Loanstrin then summed up the evidence, and corn ['tented upon diffe ent points of I'. Ile remarked that Mr. Ludlow ass evidently the object of the pi iaaner's pursuit,— that blood hal been continuously traced front Mr. Mack reties room to within an inc . .) or two of the door of NJ. 20, and that there was a smear cf blood on the curtain in that room, on a line with the window. Mr. Cooke had ad mitted that, as the pi ironer stood near the wounded m some blood nigh t have got upon his shirt. The ditlieul'y of the case, was whither blood bad been upon his shirt and washed out. Alum would do it, and alum had been found in the prisoner's possessi;n. There was the strongest I.resumption that the deed had been committed with the bloody razor found in Whatinoro's yard. This razor might have been thrown out of either window, for it was found 28 feet from the prison, r's window and. 35 feet from the passage window. His Lordship did nut at.aeh much importance to dm findieg of the at)ckings; but thought it extraordinary how the prisoner could have lost his. The question wt.': who but the piimner could have committed the deed ? Every person in the home, except Mr. Cooke, who was unable to apt, e,r, had been examined. It was almost impossible it could 1 ay: been done by a:ly person but one an inmate of the house at the t' n.e. Ti.e person must have been collet aled under Mr. Maeltreth's he I. and got out by unbolting the door.—llia Lerdahip observed t 1 at the prisoner's tracking Mr. Ludlow gave ground for strong suspici m. The able Counsel who pleaded for the pli,orter had not been able to trace any innocent motive by which the prisoner could he actuet He concluded by saying list he agrr e I sviAi Lord Hale, that the first and most sacred duty of Justice was to proiect irnoceuci, but its next ob• 1. ; _.,a.i0n was to detect and punish guilt. The question for their c-insideration was—dal the prisoner committed the outrage a; on Mr. M.ickr;th ? They had a solemn and sacred duty to perform, and he now would leave them to discharge it. At a quir:er past seven o'rl cle the Jury retired to dc lil.erate on their verdict. The Foreman in quested that the shirt, curtain, and rszor, should be given them to examine. The Learned JUDGE directed them to be handed up, saying that Oil/ were not of much importance, and that the linen would net exhibit the same appearance now as it did in August. Ater an absence of thirty-five minute:, the Jury re turae t. White their names were being called over, the prisoner, who had preserved a remarkably firm demeancur up to this period, cast his eyes very anxiously around time Court, and at their. When the Feremen pronounced " Guilt:," lie suddenly swerved back as if flora a blow. He the-n shaded ids fae r a minute with his hand, and, for the first tiaie during the they, appeared unnerved. He partially recovered Isis firmness, and when the Clerk cf Assize dernande I what he had to say why judgment should not be given, that he should die aucoruing to law, be replied in a subdued tone, " I am not guilty of it." Proclamation was then made ; when the Judge put on the black cap, and, in a very feeling manner, thus passed the sentence of desalt : "Josiah Mister—After a long and patient inquiry, the Jury have come to that conlusion to which the evidence has properly led the.r, that you are guilty of the atrocious crime for which you stand indicted. I have but seldom witnessed a case in which a crime like this has been con e, iced and execut 7tl with so much of deliberation and de tirmitiaticn as you lease exhibited. It is possible that an other person was intended to have suffered, and you pur sued hint with great industry, and your Learned Counsel was unable to suggest anything previous to your arrival at Ludlow to exidaia the circumstances which mark your pursuit cf him. You must prepare for the death which now awaits you, and I earnestly entreat you to seek for that m ercy in the next world, which you cannot receive in this. The sentence of the las is, that you be taken hence to the place whence you came, and thence to the place of execu tion, and there be hanged by the neck wall you are dead. May the Lord have mercy upon your soul." The prisoner was then removed to one cf the cells under the Court, whither he was accompanied by Mr. Dawson, Governor of the Prison, and the Rev. D. Winstone, the Chaplain. After an interval of half an hour, he was re moved to the prison. The trial lasted nearly twelve hours. The prisoner is thus described in the Salopian Journal published yesterday, with a full account of the trial : " 11.2 is described in the calendar as twenty-five years old, but dues not look mote than twenty-one. He is under the middle size and slightly made. He wag dressed iq a dark green coat with velvet collar, dark figured satin waiateoet, grey trousers with black stripe, black satin st ck with small embroidered spfg. His shirt collar and wristbands were slightly exposed. He wore his hair (which is dark brown) divided rear the middle, and smo.ehly brushed down at each side. His eyes, which are rater la-go, arc very dark and bright. His complexion is dark, He has scanty black whiskers. On the whole, his appearance was decidedly " interesing," (we believe that is the conventional epithet), and he did not lock a person likely to commit the atrocious mime of vvLieh lie was convicted. He appeared remarkably self-possessed, and occasionally took notes of the evidence." Mr. CLARKSON said the prisoner ought to feel deeply grateful fur the course proposed to be adopted. He cou!d oiler ❑othing further on his belat'f, and upon a comietion fir assau't he must lave the ease e!itirely the hands of Ile Court. The Jury then found the prisoner GuAty of an aggra vated assault. Lord DENaIAN sa'd it was a %cry bad case, and be must uike tine to consider nil t judgme:.t should be passed upon the prisoner. Jw::es /kitty, :.ged 24, labourer, surrendered to take his trial upon an indictment 11:m with the mar sl:ughte • Lf William ElAey.

His Lordship went on to gay flint it appeared that the prisoner and dece.ised La I leyn driAking trg, - Aher at a public-house, and when they went out, by son.e means or other, not clearly ascertair.e3, a quartet and fight took pl tee between them ; but it ap peared that the deceased was most to blame in the transac tion, and that he had provoked the prisoner to act as lie did in fighting with him. He should, therefore, under all the circumstances, order the prisoner to be discharged, upon paying a fine of is. FORGERY ON TILE BANK OF ENGLAND.

The Times, of this morning, referring to Mr. Darby's no tice of an amendment to the New Poor-law Bill, observes : " The country, 14 . ;e trust, will fix its attention stedfastly upon this amendment. Mr. Darby proposes to abolish the work house test, and to substitute a labour-test for all able-bodied applicants for relief. If this motion is carried, the destitute who desire to enter the wdrkhouse (if any such there be) will still have that alternative ; the sick, the infirm, the aged, the widow, and the orphan, will receive at their homes the charity to which they are entitled ; the able-bodied labourer who can not obtain employment, will have employment found for him and receive the wages of his labour without any sense of de gradation ; he will not be stripped of his furniture and goods, and forced into irretrievable pauperism, upon the first stoppage of work; he will not be called upon to relin quish the enjoyments of his home, or the society of his wife and children, as the condition of the aid granted him in his dis tress. And while justice is done to all these innocent and me ritorious classes of poor, the labour-test will be found to pro tect the rate-payers against the frauds of the idle and the dis solute quite as effectually as the present system." The ..Adorning Advertiser thus recurs to the questiOn of the Corn-laws:—" What are the Corn-laws but an attempt to draw from the vitals of the operatives an equivalent to sustain the undue ascendancy of the landowners? The poor may starve that rents may be collected. The system cannot en dure. The golden egg is not to be secured by destroying the parent of its production, though such unfortunately appears to be the course determined upon by the Legislature." The Morning Post, alluding •to some recent Poor-law d's cussions in the Commons, thus expresses its opinion of the Whigs and their system :—" Whiggery was always clever in small matters. It had prying eyes. It was great upon the greasing of wheels, and could calculate to a nicety the cost of linchpins for the carriage of the State. Since it has got into the administration of affairs, the exercise of small ability has become the order of the day. There is less downright stu pidity than there used to be—less thick-headed obstinacy; but there is no ability that one can respect. We have small dex terity instead of extended political views. We have adroit ness instead of power, smartness instead i f talent, maxims in stead of principles. Instead of a wise and dignified economy, we have profusion upon gaudy nothings, and a harsh, mean penuriousness where manly generosity ought fairly and reason ably to be exercised." The Morning Chronicle, speaking of one of Lord J. Rus sell's proposed amendments to the New Poor-law Bill, remarks as follows :—" One very important amendment has reference to emigration. Ihe power now possessed by rate-payers of raising money for the purpose of relievin g parishes by ensign lion is to be given to guardians. The Dissenters have long , complained bitterly of the persecution to which they are' sub jected in not being allowed to attend their own places of worship. His Lordship is disposed to adopt the clauses pro posed by Mr. Langdale, to allow the religious instruction of pauper children, and the attendance of the inmates of work houses at churches and chapels, in accordance with their own particular tenets, alter altering them in such a manner, however, as fairly to carry them into effect. As a great outcry has been raised against the intolerance of the existing system, this alteration will afford much satisfaction." The Morning Herald observes, in an article suggested by Mr. Ewart's notice of motion for the appointment of a Minis ter of Public Education :—" ' A Minister of Public Educa tion !' as well might we create a Minister of Public Religion. Mr. Evart is, we believe, of Prussian extraction ; or, at least, of family connection with the Prussian dominions, where there are masters of the ceremonies . for teaching men, women, and children to say their prayers, and to go through all the pos tures, evolutions, amusements, pursuits, and duties of ordi nary and extraordinary life. Like the monkey who has gone abroad to see the world,' he is determined the House of Com mons shall have the extent and value of his travels and obser vations. He is prepared, therefore, doubtless with a most erudite speech, in which all the mysteries of national education —from Adam to the present day—taught on thoroughly scien. tific principles, shall be regularly and chronologically evolved. The whole Committee of the Central Education Society. have been promised seats in the gallery, and it is whispered that Mrs. Sarah Austin is also to be introduced in masculine attire. What a pity that such worthy characters should not perceive they are only making spert for the wags of the House, and ex -• posing thenvelvos to the derision of the whole country." FOREIGN POSTAGE. (From Tuesday night's Gazette.) TREASURY WARRANT. Whereas by an Act passed in the last Sassion of Parliament, intituled " An Act for the regulation of the duties of postage," power is given to the Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury, frrm tine to time, by warrant under their hands, to alter and fix any or the rat :s of British postage or '►.land post age payable by law on the transmission by the post of foreign or calanial le ters or newspaper!, car of any other printed papers, and to subject the same to rates of post age according to the weight thereof, and a scale of weight to be contained in such warrant ; and, from time to time by warrant as aforesaid, to altar or repeal any such altered rates, and make and establish any new or other rates in lieu thereof ; and, from time to time by warrant as aforesaid, to appoint at what time the rates that may be payable are to be paid ; and it is provided that the power thereby given should extend to any increase or re•luction or remission of postage.

Mr. Ludlow, ou examination, related several circum stances which occurred on Ids reeetieg with the prhsoner at the tloicor.i Inn, Shrewsbury, on tile day of the fa'*, eoe' also at the Angrl, at Ludlow, at which iaa he had slept in N'. 17, for two years (the room in which Mr. Mack rear slept oat the night when he was wf:eked). Mr. Win. Mackreth was eex• examined, and gave his evidence as follows :—I was travelltr in August last to the house of Christopher George and Co. of Bristol. On the 19th of August I got into the Angel Inn, at Ludlow, about five in the afternoon, and had t. a. I travelled to Ludlow in a gig, and had a driving-box with me. I went into the commercial room and had tea. Some persons came in after the arrival of the coach and had tea. I want into a private room up stairs to transact some busi ness with Mr. Bradford. I went there about ten and re mained for about three-quarters of an hour, or perhaps an hour. I afterwards took a walk to the top of the street and down again, and then t eturned to the commercial room, which was empty. I rang the bell and ordered the boots to bring clippers and tire chambermaid a candle. I took the driving-box up stairs with me. I occupied the room N. 17, at the top of the stairs. I swear most positively that I locked the door, for I examined the loch. I went to bed bu.. did not look uncle,- the bed. I was asleep in about two minuter. When I awoke I found my hand in a wound in my neck. I cried out " Good God what is all this?" when I felt the raw flesh. I attempted to rise, but a hand from the left pressed me down on the pillow. I shrieked out, and believe that when I did so the wound across my face was inflicted. In trying to &et out of bed on ihe right side I was pulled back by the left shoulder. The cut across the mouth also cut my thumb. My weigh*, which was on the edge of the bed, carried me down to the floor with the bed clothes. I went to the bed-room win dow and made an alarm. I broke a pane of glass and called out " Fire ! murder 1" 1 broke a second pane of glass and heard people run down stairs from above. The blind was down within four inches of the bottom of the window, and I had no light to see en;,ti:ing. I groped round the room•and at last reached the door. I did not hear any noise in the room then, but when ge.thig out of bed I heard a rustle at the left, which is the side next the door. The door was ripened about four inches, and when I reached it I saw a little light, and thought 1 hea-d I,e3p:e down stairs. The stairs are to the Idle I went down them, and never turned to the right. I am positive of this. I went down stairs. holdin g by the bannisters, as far as the kitchen door, I sew the post•boy and Mr. Cooke. Tic latre.. said " Go up stairs : what have you done ?': I went up its, and paused a short thne at my door. After I had gat in I heard some persons say " Who is he ?" and, not being able to speak, I went to my driving box and took out my cards, and showed them. I never lost my senses all the tine, but understood all that was said. After my wounds were dressed 1 noticed a person, who I learn was the pri soner, at the hel curtain, laughing anal exhibiting great levity of conduct. He said " I have lost my steckjng— hale any of you seen my stockings ?" He was laughing at the time. I was some time under medical cite. Cross-examined.—When awakened I felt the blood hot upon me. I did not know what I struck against when I felt the wound—whether it was part of a dress or no'. I heard a noise from the room over head. The stairs adjoin No. 17. I cannot say if the partition is wood. I stood for some time by the door. Mr. Cooke, the landlord, was probably the first person who entered the room after the assault. I was in no c rndition to re cognise any one particularly. Before Mr. Peach or Mr. Cross came in, I am not sure if Mr. Crawford, bad ren dered me assistance and left the room. I became faint and exhausted, and held oat my hands for help, and Mr. Peach assisted me. Mrs. Cooke, wife to Mr. Cocke, of the Angel Inc, Ludlow, examined—Mr. C. is in an infirm state : his mind is disordered : he is not capat:e t., attend to give evidence. _ _ _ C Joke's deposition was then read as follows : Edward Cooke sworn—l am landlord of the Angel Inn in this town. I was in bed, and awoke yesterday morn ing ; I sleep fronting the street ; some time about four o'clock, as near as I can say, I was alarmed by the break ing of panes cf glass, and a cry of fire in a faint or broken voice ; my wife went to one window looking doan the yard, and I threw up the window looking into the street and I cried " fire ;" I thou instanily tan down st mirs in my shirt as I was. I fantisd the billiard room across the way was on fire, and I ran there to see ; how I got theme I can scare:Ay tell; I found there was nothing on fire, and I re turned into the house, where I met Sam, ore of the post boys ; be informed me there was a person isleceiimg on the stairs ; I went through the kinrimen up t m the stairs towards the spot ; I discovered a g.e at quan tity of blood on the landing of th r stairs near the di Ling-room door, and aboat the fourth step of the s.tsi s leading towards the bed rooms ; there I found a gentleman in his shirt, a hick was much tut n and covered wit') blood ; he was bleeding profusely from wounds in his neck ; the stairs wore covered with blood ; he attempted to speak, but could not as I could undo r stand ; I said to him, " Wily, good God, you have cut your throe.' !" Ii was supporti g himself by holding to fie st ; I said to him go into your bedroom, and I will follow you ; he heard wh..t I said, and Le walked up the remainder of the stairs, tottering as he went, and much exhausted, and went on into his be !roam, and I fol lowed him ; he got on the Led on his side ; as soon us he got into his room the first person that came to us was a Mr. Lakin, a f. land of mine who was I.sepirig• in the house ; Ira remained but a short time ; and then came a gentleman of the name of Crawford, a surgeon, from Shrewsbury, who wan also sleeping in the house ; some one brought me a candle in the course et' two minutes, and I was going with it to No. 19 bedroom, a here Mr. Crawford slept, when I meet the prisoner in the postage leading to No. 19 ; I don't say that I ex actly met him ; he stood on one side with his back up against time left hand wall; he was in his shirt ; he said something to me, and called me by my name, but I did not stop ; I went on with the candle for Mr. Craw ford to dress himself; I returned to ti e room of the • wounded gentleman, and Mr. Crawford shortly followed; he was the first surgeon who came ; we went back t gether for some things which Mr. Crawford had in his room, and then me tasted to tire wounded gentleman's room ; I saw the prisoner again standing in the passage, as I pasael with Mr. Crawford to and from his bed-room ; in a few minute.; Mr. Hodges, anothr r surge at, arrived, and whila the surgeons were dressing the wounds, I re member seeing the prisoner come into the bed-room where we were ; I noticed him in particular ; I observed his shirt was flack and ditty ; he went out o the room again, and the next time I saw him was about 7 o'clock ; he was then in the passage coming from the direction of No. 20 be I-room; he was dressed; but had no boots or stockings on ; he said he could net dress himself, for he had lost his stockings; he thought they had born dragged into one of the other rooms; my wife provided imi.n with a pair of my old stocking:, which he put on ; I did not see him in tha room of the wounded gentleman after he had put the stack ings and boots on. Samuel Paget, post-boy at the Angel ; Wm. Roberts, boots; Edward E ton, ostler; Geerges Brown, servant to Mr. Bayley, banker ; John Cm oss, tinman ; and Thomas Peach, shoemaker ; who were all present shortly after the alarm, related a number cf circumstances in accordance with Mr. Cooke's deposition. Mr. Crawford, surgeon, of Shrewsbury, was examined next, but his evidence oar. unimportant. Mr. Henry Hodges, surgeon, of Ludlow, gave the fol lowing evidence :—I was called up on the morning of the 20th of Augus , , to the Angel Inn ; found a gentleman se verely wounded ; he had received two severe cuts, one nearly horizontal across the free, extending across the e' ceks, which were cut through to the teeth ; the lea cheek was cut about three inches and the tight about two inches; there was a wound in the throat, nearly horizontal, about sever. inches long, it was very deep, particularly in the middle of the neck ; I found, on giving the wounded man water, part of it came through the wound ; had it teen a little lower down in the neck it would hsva killed him ; it was just at the 'paint of tha wind pipe, which was not cut through ; it must have been done with a sharp and strong instument ; the woun Is were inflicted from the right to the la t, and must have been done by a person on the left side of the bed. I thought Mr. Mackreth in great danger at first, but he is now yerfeetly well. I sewed the wounds up ; the blood had spouted out from some small arteries, which I believed had been cut. Theme had been a considerable effusion of blood ore the stairs. After I had dressed the wounds I saw marks of blood along the passage, not time marks of any one having stepped in the blood, but drops of blood. There was one doop of blood at ti c end of the c trpat leading to No. 20, about arm inch from the door ; they seemed to be a continuation of the spots. I went into Na. 20. The curtain envelopes the window. I saw marks of fresh blood, not by dropping; it looked as, if it had been done by drawing the curtain back. I gave my hand a swing, and it went about two or three inches above the mark. lam 5 feet 10 ir., the prisoner is 5 feet in. I believe Mr. Mackreth could not have gone along tire pas sage to the might without the blood having spirted against the wall, which was the case in going down stairs to the left. The mark was about two feet front time window. The v.iodow opened easily. Saw a place in Mr. Wham more's yard where the razor was found. It was exactly opposite the prisoner's bed-room. I saw time water-jug empty, and the slops in the chamber utensil. Timis was about seven o'clock, after the prisoner had left the room. I examined the fluid in the utensil, and tasted it ; it was mixed with alum. I have ma 'e several experiment!, and find that alum will take the stains of blood out of cloth. ilstacen nice and ten o'clock I examined time prisoner's shirt; it was very dirty ; there wart marks of blood on the lack and two on the sleeve; on the right sleeve raw marks of blood which appcareu to have Iy-en part'ally washed or sucked. I saw the prisoner searched, and a piece of alum found. He had only about twope: cc in his pockets. I saw under the prosecutor's bed marks cf a person having laid down beneath it. I saw the in iioner several times. He did not assist in any way. There was something in his manner that caused my suspicion, and I had him taken into custody. Cross-examined—l found marks of blood on No. 19 door, about three or four spots. .Saw a trsee of blood in the passage windosi. Did not find any blood on the carpet MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. CHRONICLE.—The plan adopted by the Chancellor of the Exchequer has damped the expectations of some of the great capitalists, who were expecting an invitation tg, come forward in the usual way to supply his wants, by tender for a loan ; but among the public generally it is admitted that, by borrowing from the savings' banks from time to time, the effect upon the Money Market will be less felt. By the scheme which the Chancellor of the Exchequer has acted upon, prices will, no doubt, be checked, and an occasional heaviness ex perienced; but if, instead of borrowing from the sayings' banks, he had applied at once for a loan, the funds must have given way from I to 2 per cent. in proportion to the amount required ; for, independent of the legitimate result of the ope ration in praducing a fall in the price cf the public secu rities, a fictitious decline is always occasioned under such circumstances by those who intend to become contractors. It is supposed by some that Exchequer Bills have been granted to the Commissioners for the reduction of the National Debt, in exchange for the money borrowed, or that may yet be re quired from the savings' banks, in which ease recourse will ultimately be made to the usual course of funding ; and this belief has occasioned a fall of ls. in the price of the unfunded debt to-day. It might appear that an exchange of Exchequer 6 13i11s for the stock sold could not affect the price cf the unfunded debt ; but it must be recollected that if a demand came for money from the trustees of savings' banks on account of depositors, these Exchequer Bills might be thrown on the market. On this point, however, considerable diversity of opinion is enter• tained, and must continue, until the views of the Chancellor of the Exchequer are more clearly cxpla;ned regarding the mode by which he intends to replace the stock sold ; and this, perhaps, may not be done until he makes his usual financial expose in the Budget. POST.—There was nothing passing of moment in this part of the town to-day. The continued firmness of the fore►gn exchanges is calculated to give increased confidence with re gard to the currency, but commerce is in far from a satisfac tory state. No profits have been made by the mercantile inte rest, it is said, for the last tw•o years, and the numerous failures we have had occasion to notice of late have produced much distrust among the bankers and money dealers. The statement made by us on Monday evening under this head, relative to the sale by the British and American Steam Navigation Company of their fine vessels, the British Queen and President, proves to have been perfectly well founded, as was to be inferred from the circumstance of no contradiction having been given to it. The two steamers, which were con sidered so triumphant an example of the superiority of the naval architecture of this country, have, it is fully ascertained, been actually disposed of to the Belgian Government. The company are understood to have been but scurvily treated by our own Government in respect to the mail contract. SUN.—AII is suspense n the City with regard to t' news expected before the close of the we -A from the 1.11 ted States, and the Funds have in consequence been very heavy all day. For immediate transfer, Consols have inert marked 88 to 881, and for time 8,4 to 881, the interme diate value being, about the late tcf th! day. In some degree our market may be said to Le affeeted by the Re port of the Finance Committee in the French Chamber, showing the enormous deficiency in the budget of 1842; added to tl e proposed expense of public works, of 1,153,974,896 francs, for which it may be said no eff,ctive resource has been created; so that sooner or later a new loan all - ears inevitahl.. It is probable, however, that the public here, who have lately Evinced such an unequivocal disposithn to abstain from engagements or speculation in fore'gn stock, would not be very eager subscribers for the new debt of our Gallic ncighbouts. Exchequer Bills, owing to the increased scarcity of money, the rate among the jobbers being as high as 44 and 5 per cent. went down to 7r. and 43. premium. The istrAv Three-and-a- Half per Cents. realised 96a to ; and India Bonds were a' 20s. discount ; Bank Steck was at aly at 170 for the opening. The Foreign Securities were scarcely dealt in. Spa nish Active Bonds were heavy at 23 LPortuguese New Five per Cent. at 3o ; the Three per Cent?. at 18 1 ; Mexi can at 29 a Brazilian at 71, and Chilian at 63 ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. were worth 50 / 3- to 4, and the Five per Cents. 99g. For the Railway Shares not quite such favourable prices were obtained. The Great Western real,ed 23 to 221; ; the London and Bin-6(0 , 11am, 60 to 50i prem. the Quarter, 16 prem. ; both Ex New and the South' prem.; Greenwich were 124 ; Manchester and Leeds, 2 ; and Northern and Eastern, 24 dicount. Provincial Bank of Leland Shares were at 18 prem. The following picture of the prosperity cf the labouring (lasses in the colony of Demerara pesetas so striking at contrast to the condition of the peasantry and rri,ans of this country as well as to merit attention. It is extracted from a Guiana journal :—.. " In the Court of Policy to.day, was read a petition, which deserves to be especially noticed. It was from a labouring man in the neighbourhood of Moahica, whose house and furniture, together with a gig and harness, had been bur:.ed by an accidewal fire; and the prayer was, that the Court should repair his loss, which, according to the items specified, and the value petitioner set upon them, was between seven and eight hundred dollars. Refraining, in tie meantime, from any observation on the expediency of the Court's entertaining or granting such a request, it might mot be improper to draw public attention to the extraordinary circumstance of a common agricultural labourer having seven hundred dollars' worth of furniture in his house. Few, if any, agricultural la. bourers in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire land cou4l lose one-third of seven hundred dollars' worth of furniture, or anything else, if the whole property of tha country in which they reside were burnt to ashes. This petition ought to be published, to show the comforts and independence of labourers in this colony." Prince Charles Christian of Waldeck and Pyr mont was married a few days since at Cleves, to the Countess Amelia Henrietta Julia of Lippe Biesterfield QUEEN CIIIUSTINA. (From the Gazette the Midi of Marti! 19. ) We have a letter from R nne, written a few s after Queen Christina's dera-ture, and which emanat -s from a person worthy of c:c lit.

ROYAL GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY.--A very full g eneral meeting of memb ers w as h e l d on Monday evening, G. 13. Greenhough, Esq., President, in the Chair. Colonel Jackson introduced to the notice of the meeting a beautiful instance in which the electrotype pro cess had been introduced to maps, being the first of tho kind which had been executed. The map, which was pre sented by Captain l3eaufort, was of tl.e Island of Ascen sion, and there was no distinction between this specimen and the one from which it had been taken. 'There were also exhibited two embossed maps from Mr. Acker. mann, which were comparatively cheap, and gave a good idea of tie places they represented. Captain Grey gave an account of his survey of five yea^s of the coast of Asia Minor. The whole coast had be 2n re-surve j el by this expeditim in one continued tizegulation, as also part of the Morea and Attica. Ile will return on the first of next month to survey C atis, to ascer tain the longi udes of the places on the e•stern basin of the Mediterranean, to Acro and Jaffa, and thence to Jo rtbalern.
