They had known her to bear gat character since her childhood. 'tr. Justice EATTLEDALE charged the jury, and I' te(l that the great question was, whether the t ne with which the prisoner was charged was :* it t lnnitted wilfully or accidentally. The case was did u nusual occurrence, inasmuch that the prisoner not commit the crime in malice to the child, but 1 111 .alice towards the mother. He exhorted them it gee the case its most serious consideration, for E uley *ere of opinion that the prisoner had corn -tted murder, her life must be forfeited. , the char g e of the Learned Judge occupied nearly A h our. The Jury retired at two o'clock, and after half an 4 4.

B a il ey depose d , t h at h e was curate o f Wap i',ll 1, when the ceremn of marriage tok ace be oeett William Jones and Caroline Elizabethtook Miller, n the 9th of August, 1825. fo Sarah Willi ams d epose d , t h at t h e pr i soner h a d be s}7len married to Joseph Miller, the mate of the 11- anNak, in 1821. Miller sailed in the ship pr a h ". , /, Which was lost, and all the hands perished. ?Prisoner had told her that Miller was droned " I i t ilat vessel, and she went into mourning ford him. e accomp an i e d t h e p r i soner w h en aga i n married t l J ones, at Wapping. She had then upon her a nd the ring with which she was married to her firSt husband, and the Clergyman told her he could }an marry her unless she took it off. The prisoner surd she was a widow, and the Clergyman (Mr. alley) ask e d h ow it was t h a t s h e h a d d escr ib e d h erself as spinster. Witness believed, that after the Prisoner's marriage with .Jones she went by the Lliktne of Miller, and did not live long with him. This witness further stated, that the marriage cere- Illony, at Wapping, was interrupted, and the parties left the church. The Clergyman was recalled, and said he had no r ecollection of any woman being present at the cere tilony, nor did he recollect the interruption spoken of. ,_Mr. LAW here took an objection, under th e re cen t Marria ge Act, to the validity of the marriage at 4 PPilig, on the g roun d o f mis-description i n th e Bans NIL Justice GAZELEE saidthe objection was new, 4 j 4 .1 he wo u ld take time to consider of it, and in 4 mean time the trial had better proceed. 1 !loys Sylvester deposed to taking the prisoner Ito custody, and on showing her the certificate of er marriage with Jones, she said that only one I % ; °4l ari knew anything of that, and he might find ,: r if he co u ld. The husband, Hogg, applied for a 'lrratit on the Satmrdav, and she was apprehended °lt the Monday. I.Elizabeth Bliss, the sister-in-law of the prisoner, ;Posed th a t s h e was pr e s e nt wh e n the prisoner ‘'`'l married to Hogg, on the 14th of last October. I, C ress-exarnined by Mr. LAW.—Did not know '' n es; was married about nine months to the pri thaer's brother; knows the . h . andwriting of Hogg ; 8 Paper produced is his writing; the prisoner had 'l;°l.ne furniture and property belonging to her; her \pther-iii-law;, has paid the rent of the house in h nieh Hogg ari:d . the prisoner lived; the prisoner 43 one child bj'ller first husband; has known the 141itioner for three yeats, and never knew any person ,the name of Jones living with her. lerthe following evitiCne was then called for the ence j Anne Bliss is the mother of prisoner, and knew to n es. On the d a y J one s and her daughter went ti church, the prisoner returned, and said the mar -4'lo was good for nothing. She never lived with c leg, nor had s h e ever gone b y hi s name . Sh e con illited to reside with witness. by the JUDGE--J ones came to h er h ouse t h e b o l ght of the marriage, but no one could prove, that 1 1 4 V ever slept together. Jones was only about her b'ttse for two days, arid came afterwards to claim thin He also said the marriage was good for no g, and that th e p r i s oner h a d no more d eman d Peri him than he h a d upon the pri soner . h A great number of witnesses were called, who v ve an excellent character to the prisoner, and all t i l them swore pos i tively that she had never gone by e name of Jones. Mr. Justi c e G AZELEE sa i d, the case was one of rat importance, not m ere l y as regar d e d t hi s mar ,ige but as the principle up on w hi c h it might he i l i 6 ded would af f ect a vast numb er o f marriages.— th 'ie case was one which, even if they should find Pri soner gu il ty , w ould n o t ca ll f or any severe ,441%Inent ; and as the question of marriage was : Il e Purely of law, he could not recommend them to Suit the prisoner. As the mistake in the banns ,i4l unintentional he could not consider the mar -I'o inralid, but he weuld reserve that question for ttil3.lhrother Judges ; and if they found the prisoner t , . ) „ 14 3 7 , which he would, under the circumstances, re- C lit nend them to do, he would take her own recog- I N , 1 1 , t flees to appear next Session to receive the judg- N ll c t of the Court. He said, her own recogni et, ts, as she might perhaps not be able to pro re bail. .i b toDERicK, however, assured the Court that rel., f riends w ere hi g hly r es p ecta bl e , an d s he WaS to give any bail that might be required. b i de Te Jury were upwar d s o f t wenty m i nutes con - N r ,,lng of their verdict, when dim !r• Justice GAZELEE said he could n o t see the for it was entirely a question of law. or l e of the Jury felt a difficulty either to acquit ‘eonvict, tinder the terms of the statute. ~t 1: 1 1% Justice GAZELEE said, that in that case it usual to take the law from the Judge, and in 1,115 opinion the marriage with Jones was valid; but tilieadthonld not act upon that opinion until the case been submitted to the Twelve Judges.— Iky. Mr • t Ji sticeGAZELEE sa id t h at t h e p r i s oner should . 'it,!luiter much i nconven i ence from the ver di ct . Lie Jury recommended her to mercy. tio.7 r • Justice GAZELEE sa id t h at the recommenda wenre was unnecess a ry, as hi s f eel i ngs upon the case precisely the same as th e i r own. Ile prisoner then entered i nto recogn i zances to aPP!ar When culled upon. 0 , P, tee F enn was i nd i cted for forging on the 18th ! u ecember last an acceptance to a bill of exchange for 1511. 10s., of the name of James Lusette, with intent to defraud S;:rah Cooke. There was a second (omit fir uttering the same. Mr. BRODERICK and Mr. BARRY conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. ALLEY appeared for the prisoner. John Cooke deposed that he is shopman to his mother Sarah Cooke, of Holborn Bars. Has.known the prisoner at the bar for 14. year; and was a pupil of his when he was a tutor at Kirkman's, at Isling ton. The prisoner has discounted bills with wit ness on his mother's account. He discounted the bill in question at five per cent. for his mother, and the prisoner then said, " My lad, I shall be of ser vice to you, and I hope I always shall." He then ordered 16/. worth of goods, and offered another bill for 361., and asked for 20/. in money, being the difference, which, when presented, was not worth a farthing. His mother afterwards employed Mr. Vincent, the attorney, and witness went with hint to Paris in search of Mr. F., but did not find him there. They afterwards found him at Calais, where he was in the act of leaving for England. A person named Millbury was with the prisoner. There were sonic boxes outside the door of the inn. When witness saw Mr. Fenn,he was ready to fall upon the earth. He said, " Oh, God, lam a dead man." He said, " If I had a hundred necks, I must lose them all." Cross-examined—Receives a salary, and has no interest in the business otherwise. Has discounted many bills for Mr. Fenn, which Mr. Fenn paid, but they were forgeries. Mr. ALLEY—Sir, it is a falsehood. Witness—l can prove it. Mr. ALLEY—Sir, it is false. We do not prove for geries so glibly here. Witness--I never solicited bills from Mr. Fenn; the letter is my handwriting. The letter was here read, and it asked Mr. Fenn for a nice little bill for 30/. and an acceptance from Melton for 100/. This, he said, he asked for in exchange for bills which Fenn had given him, and which were good for nothing ; did not discount the bill on his own acconnt ; they only took five per cent. discount; the usual way of dealing was to discount the bill first offered, but there was an understanding that a second bill was to be given for goods sold; did not share in the profits. Mr. George Vincent corroborated the evidence of the former witness. Cross-examined by Mr. ALLEY—I am the same person who was examined yesterday, and who pub lished that libel. No, not published it. William Weaver knows Mr. Lusette, and the ac ceptance on the bill was not the writing of that gentleman. Cross-examined—Has known Mr. Lusette about ten months, and has seen him write. _ . Mr. ALLEY—When did you see him write ? No answer. Have you seen kiim write more than once ?—No answer. Mr. ALLEY—Upon your oath, if you have seen him write was it not for the purpose of enabling you to swear that you had seen him write ?—No, Sir. When did you see him write ?—No answer. By the JUDGE.—How often have you seen him ►•rite. No answer. Mr. Lusette was now called, but Mr. ALLEY objected to his evidence being re ceived, unless he was released by the creditors. Mr. Justice GAZELEE overruled the objection. Mr. Lusette then deposed that the acceptance on the bill was not in his handwriting. The prisoner then read a defence in substance similar to that of yesterday. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, but re commended to mercy by both prosecutor and jury.

Summons refused. —Lei cester Herald. THOMAS FULLER, the historian, so well known for his quaint sayings and bright points, was one day riding with a gentleman named SPARROWIIAWK. The name roused his fancy, and he asked him what was the difference between " a Sparrowhawk and as owl ?" " Why, sir," replied his companion, " the owl is fuller in the head, fuller in the body, and fuller all over."—Hull Packet. The game throughout this county is uncom monly scarce this year ; the covies, instead of their usual number, rarely being found to exceed eight or ten birds. The scarcity is, no doubt, to be attributed to the long continued rains which prevailed during the breeding sea son.—Taunton Courier. There is. at present living ill the parish of Port-in-Monteath,. a woman, called widow CAMERON, who is about 100 yeers old, and who is remarkably stout and healthy. She keeps two cows, for which she threshes all the fodder, and manages the dairy department with great activity. Last winter she' was observed walking barefooted during frost and snow to Buskie, a distance of nearly two miles.— Obsgotc Chronicle. DUBLIN, SEPT. 9.—lt is a matter of regret than his Excellency is so frequently visited with those nervous attacks to which he is so subject ; he was con fined to his Marine Lodge, Rich View, on Sunday last; but his two sons, Lords ALFILED and GEORGE, accompa nied by one of the Aide-de-Camps, were all day riding about Kingstown. Some of the chit chat here is the accouclatment of Pen-QuErN GUATUOA, the lady of AVONG CHONGTIE, of Canton China; the offspring is a daughter. Great anxi2ty is expressed to see this little Irish Chinese ; she will prove a rich harvest to the mother, who has been exhibiting herself for some time in this city.

A few evenings since as the Rev. Mr. SLIER_ MAN was preaching his farewell sermon to a very nume rous congregation at Lady HUNTINODON'S chapel, th e y were thrown into great amazement by the following curious circumstance :—The Minister teas proceeding with his dis course, and the attention of the people was fixed most ear nestly on him, when a strange, odd sound was heard in ene of the aisles—nething was to be seen—no one could con ceive what it could be--the thump ! bump ! thump ! thumping ! was however distinctly heard—alarm and con sternation were strongly depicted in every countenance— even the Minister paused. presently the noise ceased— and in a few minutes a huge, shaggy, black Newfoundland dog most grotesquely thrust his head with his big eyes glaring and his red tone lapped over the front of the singing gallery. The mystery was new unravelled. The dog had come into the chapel, and as he passed up the aisle his long tail had bumped agai n st the pannels of the pews. Brighton Gazelle.

IRELAND, TRALEE, SEPT. 6.—The elec tion for a Burgess to serve in Parliament for the borough of Tralee will take place on Friday next, the 12th of Sep tember. The Ex-Member for Clare has been spoken of with confidence as the candidate intended to be proposed by Sir EbwARD DEN NY ; but this report has lost ground, and the cause of the change has been attributed to the ad vice of a person of great eminence at the bar in England, well known for his devotedness to the Constitution in Church and State. It has been hinted that the disfran• chisement of this borough, should such an unlucky cir cumstance be permitted by the House of Lords, would be the signal for an attack upon certain other places similarly situated. Mr. LEADER, of Cork, a Protestant Barrister, will be, I am told, the liberal candidate. • TIIE MINISTRY.—The rumoured accession of Lord CAMDEN to the present Administration gains very general credit. According to one report, his Lordship is to take Lord BATHURST'S present office, that of President of the Council, Lord BATHURST taking the office of Keeper of the Privy Seal, in the room of Lord ELLENBoxouctr, removed to the India Boatd, in place of Lord MELvILLE, who, it appears finally determined, is to be placed at the head of the Navy, in spite of his Lordship's reiterated re fusals to accept that office. Another rumour moves Lord CAMDEN to the Privy Seal, without disturbing Lord BATIIL'RST.—Morning Herald. THE LORD HIGH ADMIRAL.—IR the course of the last official visit which his ROYAL HIGII NESS made to Portsmouth, he gave orders to fit out two ships of war for the Mediterranean, and despatched the ne cessary instructions to Sir GEORGE COCKBURN to carry those orders into effect. Sir GEORGE not having, of course, the "sinews of war" at his own command, referred the matter to the Treasury, stating, at the same time, that his instructions were peremptory. The answer of the Duke of WELLINGTON was, that the responsible advisers of the Crown could not consent to any such measure. This being communicated to the Duke of CLARENCE, his Royal Highness lost not a moment in tendering his resignation; but the LORD CHANCELLOR, well knowing his great itn portance to the Government, considering the close relation in which his ROYAL IlicittiEss stood to the Throne, used his utmost exertions as a mediator between the PRINCE and PREMIER. It is said that the Noble and Learned Lord has so far succeeded as to prevail upon his RoSAL HIGHNESS to retain the office with abridged power. A new patent is now in the progress of being made out ; and by the tenour of it, the Lord HIGH ADMIRAL will in fu ture be responsible for his acts to the Ministers of the Crown.—(From a Correspondent.)—Morning Herald.

EDUCATION.—The Bishop of LICHFIELD and COVENTYY, at a late triennial visitation of the Clergy of Stafford, alluded to the prevailing causes of irreligion : One of them was the diffusion of education divorced front religious principles. He thought it behoved the Clergy to keep a jealous eye upon what were called Alechanics' In stitutes, and to use every exertion to convey religions prin ciples in connexion with other knowledge."—:-Leicester Herald.

Extract of a letter from an officer on board his Majesty's ship Britannia, written at sea shortly before the close of the late experimental cruize :—" Having seen it stated in one of the Papers that we were beaten at all points by the Regent, I think it right to offer a few re marks upon the subject. It is true the first day after our sailing from Torbay she heat us very much, though not so much as we heat her in going in ; it is also true she did heat us for three or four days after. Now then, allow me to state undeniable facts in explanation. We were obliged to set up our rigging and stays in Torbay, we also were obliged to complete our water ; this most decidedly altered the Britannia's trim, and impeded her sailing ; for be it known Britannia is no dandy, she does not like her stays too taught laced : again, her bottom was very dirty in deed, but that was easily remedied, and by making her jump about a little, we loosened her stays and rigging ; in addition to all this, we got rid of a great deal of water forward, she was then more by the stern, and soon reco vered her superiority. She is, without exc e pti o n, th e finest ship I e ver h a d my foot in ; she carries sail to admi ration, and it a most excellent sea boat, but very tender in her trim, in that respect equal to any frigate. The Regint is also a most beautiful ship, and I do not think there are two finer ships in the world, but I cannot get over that guinea pig stern, she looks about the stern like an old goose that has lost all her feathers.

Some important alterati,ns were made in the betting. Early in the day, 10 to I was hetteti s.gaitist Bessy Bedlam, and a rep in was abroad that she had a "sere* loose:" Many of her backers were frightened, many more puzzled, and few risked the chance, and took all the odds they could get down to 7 to 1. It was then generally thought that her libellers had lost by the speculation, and notwithstand ing the strength of their party, they dared not follow up the odds. Velocipede is still out of sight, gud nobody can be found to take 12 to 1, or to ask for any definite odds. Ballad Singer has the call of the Colonel at present, and 34 to 1, are the highest odds offered against her. The Colonel stands well at 4 to 1, and ally thing above it Will be taken.

Several passengers were waiting at Dogdyke for the purpose of embarking in the Duke of Sussex, and the engine was stopped to take them on board. During the time of this stoppage, the weight on the safety valve (above 171b5.) was not removed ; consequently the steam accumulated greatly, and from the action of the valve being impeded, an unusual noise was heard in part ot• the packet; to discover what occasioned this, the engi neer (Mr. Salmi's son, an ingenious young man about 20 years old) laid himself down upon the boiler, to listen whence the noise proceeded. The passengers being all on board, the word was given to set t h e er engine a-going ; but, in attempting this, the boil er suddenly burst, with an explosion which was Terror dis tinctly heard at the distance of two y subsiding, and confusion paralysed all who witnessed first few moments; but on the alarm partially been totally it was discovered that the side of the boiliedr. huge receptacle oorceedmbdaorkwend the• blown from its position, and that froint water had been ejected great quantities of steam and boilingg ele►nent above with a power which carried the scalding ersons on shore and 40 yards, knocking down some persons erpe seventeen . passengers slightly scalding others. Theis vhom were providential] on board at the time, most of N . . . Y serious injury. Miss CARSBY, W O .

Immediately on the boiler bursting, the 1 irg, iron chimney was thrown down, and the sides of the packet were stoved in, when the vessel lurched, anti one aide went down, the other being aground. The sufferers were im mediately conveyed ashore._ —Lineolit Mercury. t l3 le to b n o ' i lt s :; as h uornset, SPIRIT OF THE LONDON JOURNALS. Some people are rather positive in their as surances that the arrangement for the Admiralty is completed, and that a successor to the latelv resigned chief of that department has been found in the person of Lord Melville ! That strange things happen daily in high offices, we arc not prepared to deny ; but that such a recurrence a:; this to times of which every man rho loves his country must be anxious to bury the recollec tion, has actually taken place, am affirmed by our unitcmporaries, we shall not believe until we sec it, and then with extreme repugnance. Of Lord Melville we will just say, that he is nearly the last man whom the nation, if consulted, would suffer to dabble with its navy. His Lord ship is not a new public officer : there is no pro mise about him'—h e is known enough—he in spires no hope : what else I.e inspires, we arc not anxious to particularize. We trust that th ere ex i s t s a power somewhere, whether in Par liament or in the people, to prevent the navy from being jobbed, and made into a Treasury preserve Scotch Lords and even Scotch Tories are well enough in their proper births, but the heart of British oak is the last receptacle that w e would have chosen wherein to deposit the dry rot.— Times. There is no subject on which the accounts which reach us (hilly are more different andcon tradictory than the resignation and non-resigna tion of the Lord High Admiral. We stated, N./Maenad time ago, that his Royal Highness , had tendered his resignation, but that his Ma jesty had not thought proper to accept it ; yesterday we gave an extract from an Evening' Cotemporary, in which it was distinctly stated that his Royal Highness had given up all chavg,r. at the Admiralty on Saturday last. This account we have reason to believe to be correct, mere yes pecially as it happens to be confirmed from other quarters ; but there are others who stoutly den either that the resignation has been accepted or that b e t w een his Royal Highness and the tiie Ddiuffkereetuir"Wellington has arrived at such a pass as . • It is certain that ono titer Commission has beenl naLe out, and that, that it cansfot be accommodated. Be this, however, as it may, in the event of his Royal Highness still declin ing the office of Lord High A dm iral, Lord s Melville will succeed him as First .Lord of the Admiralty. We have reason to know ii.L O that that Nobleman has signified his accept a nce Q f. the office with great reluctance, and that but for the unfortunate difference, promoted from inte rested motives, which took place between his Royal highness and the Premier, all parties io the Ministry would have been pleased to see Royal Highness at the head of the Navy. His resignation of his high office, in fact, we consitlcs as little short of a national calamity. Prior to his appointment to the office of Lord High Admiral, the Navy had been managl4l exactly the same manner as the army had beei previous to that of the late Duke of York as Commander-in-Chief—parliamentary influence had superseded the more powerful claims of me rit—and family interest the just appeals of the meritorious. The Lord High Admiral put au end to this system, so far as he was concerned, and hence the determation to get rid of him.— The patronage of the navy had been found ne cessary, under former Administrations, because those Administrations were corrupt, and the Government unpopular ; and how it appears that even the Duke of Wellington tarmot dis pense with it ! We would fain hop hoW-= ever, that the return of Lord Melville td ;Ire, Admiralty would not be signalised by same submissiveness to the Boroughmongers which was formerly manifested, that merit would have some claims upon his regard, and that those who have been heretofore the great monopo lisers of the navy patronage, would be taught that there are other interests besides theirs to be consulted, and that a Government pursuing the " stern path" of duty may safely rely on the sup port of the country. At all events there is no branch of the public service in which the expe riment cats be so safely tried. The navy is the right arm of England, and its restoration to its former efficiency would, of itself alone, entitle the Duke of Wellington to the gratitude and support of time country.—Morning Advertiser. Our Contemporary of the Courier must have read our article on the influence of the Clergy with very singular spectacles, to discover that it was written in " disparagement" of the Protes tant Clergy, or that we chid them for abandon ing the usages to which the Catholic Priests were indebted for no small part of their influence. On the contrary, we expressly stated, that WC " (lid not much regret the absence of that domi nion and sway possessed by the Roman Catholic Priests over the minds of their flocks ;" though ofthelgreat, the Bishop of Bath and Wells seemed to think Priesthood. that our own clergy would do well t o t a k e a l ea f toilua saidtt theeor: wherever ehoraottkil:e,oeft suspected e Catholic it would be found, cerg ) , is We influence the people are ignorant and degraded, and that the ignorance is the main source of the influence; for, in proportion as education is diffused among the people of a country, they learn to think for themselves, and to trust to the resources of their own minds, and, therefore, are not easily in fluenced by others. We are tempted to suppose fell m oN a vic y reatur e that our contemporary's memory has served hint a in the same nick, and that he has confounded the impression observa tions, with that produced by those which we made. produced on hint by the Bishop o: f ia ß tsl a wio t h l u l il 's cdili : ioiissslas The i in nfluence flpresent N d vi a l y ici i i s a p C rec ic i r so g ef y iyh m it a sh hours for the improvementan influence which he will share entitle him to ; . wh h swil a l re be la a b il o o u w r e it d lg . cause, and which with all those in proportion oppor tunities of benefitting the people, by his advice and assistance, and he may turn to excellent ac count the influence he possesses with the higher ranks. It is fortunate for a neighbourhood when a Clergyman of liberal views and an active phi lanthropic disposition has his residence in it ; we take as an as it is merited. A Clergyman Las instance the Rev. John Thomas Beecher, the CI • toilman of the Quarter Sessions for the Newark • • iviston of the county of Not tinrdiam s‘ b hose unwearied exertions for the im provement of the working of the Poor Laws, and the establishment of Friendly Societies on safe principles, and otherwise praise worthy objects, justly entitle him to the gratitude of his countrymen. 'The sort of il e . fluence which a man like Mr. Beecher possesses, namely, the influence derived from the el i deuce of his labours for the improvement of his fellow-creatures, is the only influence which it is fitting any one should possess among rational beings. We hope the number of com petitors for • such influence will constantly in crease, and that the Clergy will seek to distill. guish themselves,. by contributing to the im provement of their fellow -creatures, instead of seeking to keep them in darkness, to insure what the present Archbishop of Canterbury deemed a I aged and ford con- nee, rot . of iry. first tnn fe :dry. that )te btit lON be -ew C pt ills Nib ver the nit" sl 5 tea el' Ike ore t he be tit an. ; his and
