The Twenty-Fourth Testimony in favour of this extraordinary Medicine : _ 0 ,- 77 " Liverpool, Feb. 20, 1841. " Drintt SIR,—It is with feelings of the most lively grati tude that I convey to you a knowledge of the cure that I have obtained by the use of your Holland's Balsam of Spruce. I feel it incumbent upon me to make you acquainted with my case; though unwilling to put myself forward, yet I conceive it a duty due to society that my testimony should be added to those which I perceive you have inclosed with yen. medicine. My case was one of that numerous class which unfortunately are of too frequent occurrence in this variable climate, namely, cold taken from over exertion in the pursuit of my business ; not heeded at the commencement, it proceeded through all the usual stages of colds, next cough, then difficulty of breathing, attended with most distressing exertions in coughing, with sensation of blood rushing upwards to the head until the tem ples felt as if they would burst. I tried all the usual reme dies ; when, almost without hope, I saw your advertisement, and was induced to give it a trial, and, I rejoice to state, that the first night afforded me relief. A little continuance in its use gradually brought refreshing sleep, and now I am happily restored to health. Allow me, Sir, to ter.der you my best thanks for the means you have taken to place your discovery before the public, who, I am convinced, will be benefited by its use. " Yours, most obediently, " To Mr. C. Holland. " JAMES WILSON." This case will be immediately followed by others, to the num ber of nearly 100 already received ; its astonishing power in subduing coughs and colds exceeds all belief, whilst its healing, balsamic, and soothing qualities instantly relieve soreness and tightness of the chest, sense of suffocation, sore throat, &c.

The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, usele.;s, and even bad books. With the force of this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled " Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin if many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced and Judicious surgeons. To quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The e•esult, however, of our careful perusal if the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England. Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood," is ono of the few books now coming before the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu abie.—Magnet. The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never -failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. %Ye strongly recommend the work.—Age. The multitude of boots daily coming from the press, some, nay most of them of a very questionable tendency, made us ex tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita • tion in saving that we arise from its perusal instructed and edified. 'The clear exposition of the source of many of archtose diseases which proves so fatal to youth, and which set si down by the every - day obs erverastlns icitudes of resu lt . of common causes, suels as exposure to cold, sudden y tempo rature, hereditary taint, snely satisfactory.

LORE) PROVOST FORREST: At Edinburgh on Monday last a great assemblage of respectable citizens, on the invitation of the Lord Pro vost and Magistrates, met in the Parliament House, for the purpose of celebrating the birth of the Duke of Corn wall. The Lord Provost presided on the occasion, sup ported on the right by the Lord President of the Court of Session, and on the left by Lord Greenock, Com mander of the Forces. Among others who attended were the Judges, the City Clergy, the Professors, the Town Councillors, the military officers in the Castle and Piers hill Barracks, &c., &c. An ample repast covered the tables which were ranged through the hall ; and a bless ing having been asked by the Very Reverend Principal Lee, the speeches commenced. The first three were by the Lord Provost ; the fourth by the Lord President of the Court of Session, proposing the Lord Provost's health, for which the City Lord returned thanks in another, speech. Thus, at a public entertainment honoured by the first men of the Northern Capital, only five speeches were made, and four-fifths of these were appropriated by the crazy Non-Intrusionist. If this is not intrusion, we know not what is. This is no fiction of ours. The account is taken from an Edinburgh paper. PROOF of the EFFICACY Of RLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.

A great many vessels were lying at an• chor in the roads, trusting for their safety to the good ness of their anchorage. We heard of no accident ex cept that of a brig, which had her bowsprit and fore topmast carried away by a schooner driving across her bows. In the evening the wind abated, and this morning the sea has resumed a more calm appear ance. Being spring tides the water rose to a great height, flowing round the corner of the North-terrace, and presented a scene of awful grandeur. During the gale a portion of the roof of Mr. W. H.

A YANKEE ' S IDEA OF DRAMATIC POWER. —ln looking over an old file of American papers the other day, our attention was arrested by the following paragraph, in which the writer has been at considerable pains in straining his imagination for the purpose of de scribing the powerful effects of Miss Ellen Tree's acting on en American audience:—" Miss Ellen Tree.—l'll tell you an almighty strange thing of how that gal works on the feelins of critters. When she was acting Julia in our parts, the door-keepers came a way in, for it was tar nation cold, and no one took no notice of the doors, cos no more could well get in, when an old bear sniffs his way into the town, and findin no one astir, for they were all at the play, what does the critter do, but sniffs his way there too, and crawls up behind the boxes. I guess he meant to sup off some of the chaps ; but, however, he listened, and list ened, till he got quite affected, and so modified that he swore he'd never go man eatin any more ; next night he came again, and brought his wife, and the thing was only discovered on the third night, when he was comin down to the box-office along with an alligator." The Rev. A. IVl‘Caul, D.D., has been ap pointed to the Professorship of Hebrew and Rabbinical Literature i i King's College, London, vacant by the re signation of Professor Alexander, the .Bishop of the United Church of England and Ireland in Jerusalem. LONDON, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1841. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS HAY. POST.—The Money Market was decidedly less easy to-day, the interest demanded on the security of stock ranging between five and six per cent. for temporary purposes. A report has been current in the produce market now for several days past of the Bank of England being about to increase their present rate to six per cent. per annum. This report has at length extended itself to the Stock Exchange and other quarters, though, from all we can learn upon the subject, there does not appear to be any good foundation for it. The importations of specie have been large of late, both from the Conti nent and the American States, and as the exchanges continue favourable to this country, there is no visible cause for any further action on the part of the Bank. The stock of bullion has rather diminished during the last two or three months, but the reason of this is well understood, and there is no ground for believing that any thing worthy of being called a drain is to be apprehended. The probability seems to be, therefore, that the rate now chargeable, will not, for the present, be disturbed. It is not long since a reduction of interest was spoken of with equal confidence, and the rumour at that time originated, if we recollect rightly, as it has now done, with the spe culators in Mincing-lane. CIIRONICLE.—Lord Monteagle has given notice to the holders of unstamped Exchequer bills still outstand ing, to bring in their bills against Friday, the 19th instant, at the latest, in order that the examination and stamping may be completed, and the bills returned on or before Saturday, Nov. 20, "when it is expected that the present proceedings may be brought to a close." On Friday last, the 12th inst., his Lordship informed the public, that up to Thursday, the 11 th inst., 25,709 bills, amounting in value to 15,865,300/., had been re ceived, examined, stamped, and re-issued, which left 3.605,75C1. still outstanding and unstamped. If the whole of these shall have been brought up to the Exchequer, and have passed through tile test of examination, stamping, and re-issuing by Friday, then his Lordship's duty will be " completed," and the proceedings alluded to by the Comptroller-General " brought to a close." But we do not believe that the whole of the outstanding bills will be sent up by the time required. We have every reason, indeed, to think otherwise, for there must be a very general repugnance amongst the outstanding holders, who received their bills in security for loans, to trust them to the test of the counterfoils, when, if they should not correspond with them, they are totally un certain whether they can ever get another look of their property. Supposing there are some half a million only of bills not sent up against Friday ; nay, sup posing there be only half-a-dozen of 1,0001. bills not forwarded against the day specified, the holders, it seems, are to be excluded from having them afterwards examined and stamped I Such is the inference to be drawn from the notice of the Comptroller-General; and if that be the case, we have no hesitation in saying that the notice is impotent; and cannot be maintained. The Exchequer cannot compel the holders of the outstanding bills to send up their bills against Friday. The notice, indeed, does not attempt to do so. The framers of' it knew that they had not the power ; but they have sent out the notice as a feeler, and in the shape of a threat, by inuendo, to induce the outstanding bills to be confided to their grasp, and so enable them to bring their labours to a close. We scarcely think the manoeuvre will suc ceed to the desired extent, and we fear that his Lordship may still be compelled to attend to office-hours for some time longer. It is not every day that City people come into such close contact with a Lord, and they are natur ally averse to part company so abruptly with the one they have caught. SUN.—In the Stock Exchange the tendency was again mere in favour of the buyers than the sellers, and the disposition was still to press sales, arising no doubt from the scarcity of money. Consols for immediate transfer were 89 to 88, and for the Account 89 to 88+, with but little doing. Exchequer Bills were rather heavy, at 105. to 12s. premium; Bank Stock was down to 164 and 1631, India Stock was supported at 247; and the New Three and-a-Half per ()eras. were at 99 to 94. The Foreign Stocks wore a heavy appearance, and the quotations were barely so good. For the Account there were very few transactions; Active Spanish Bonds brought 211 for Money, and 211 tog for 'Time. Por tuguese New Five per Cents. brought 301, and the Three per Cents. 18. Colombian Stock was at 19 to 191, and Brazilian at 571, being about previous rates. Belgian Stock was worth 100+ to 1001. French ,Five per Cents. n ere at 116 f. 25c., and Dutch Five per Cents. at 99 to 99+. Shares were again inanimate, but no particular al teration occurred in prices. Great Western Railway Shares were 14 to 131, the New 6+, the London and Birmingham 66 to 67, the South Western 14+ to 14+, and York and North Midland 3.51 to 36 premium. Brighton were 12+, Blackwell 16, and South-Eastern and Dover 23 discount. THE MURDERS AND SUICIDE AT BURNLEY BARRACKS. FURTHER PARTICULARS. • The barracks erected 1821, cover a. large area, and are generally occupied by both cavalry and infantry. At present there are stationed there two or three troops of the Queen's Bays, or Second Dragoon Guards, occupying the cavalry part of the barracks. The infitntry quarters are tenanted by two companies of the 60th Rifles, under the command of Major Cockburn. The regiment quitted Windsor about two months ago, and its present head quarters are at Bolton, under the command of Colonel Sir John Maclean. Lieutenant O 'Grady, during the latter part of the tragic occurrences, had been placed by his brother officers on the hearth -rug, and attended by Mr. Cohen, the assistant-surgeon of the regiment ; the principal surgeon, Dr. Fraser, being at the head-quarters at Bolton. The wounded officer exclaimed to those about him, "Oh ! I have long expected this from that villain !" and immediately afterwards, he asked, "Is that poor girl dead ?" Mr. Cohen told him she was not. Taking an officer's hand, Lieutenant O'Grady said to him, with much earnestness and emotion, " Oh, this is a bad way to die. Any way to die but this !" Mr. Cohen then desired him to keep himself quiet—that per haps all would not be so bad as he anticipated—and he endeavoured, , by holdin g the lips of the wound together, and compression, to stay the blood which was now pour ing from the wound. Mr. O'Grady looked at him, and, speaking as if in pain and with difficulty, said, " Oh, it is of no use, I shall not live many hours. This is the death of me." He was then placed on a table, conveyed to his own room, and laid upon the bed. By this time Mr. White, a surgeon in practice at Burnley (which is distant about a mile from the barracks), arrived, and, with Mr. Cohen, attended the unfortunate, gentleman during the remainder of the night. He lingered till half past ten o'clock on Monday morning, and then expired. When the poor girl was raised from the ground, it was found that she was bleeding profusely from everal wounds inflicted below the shoulder on the left side and on the back. She appeared to suffer much pain ; and twice in paroxysms of pain she exclaimed, " Oh Morris! oh Morris !" She survived only till eleven o'clock the same night, about 2i hours after the fatal deeds. Robert Morris was almost instantly raised, and car ried to his room ; he expired in two or three minutes afterwards, having apparently stabbed himself with such desperation, as to inflict two or three mortal wounds, beside others of a less serious nature. lie never spoke after the fatal acts above described. The • sergeant-major picked up the knife, which is about a foot in length,—being an old carver, much - ground, and so thin that the back had almost as sharp an edge as the true edge ; the point, too, was very sharp. The force with which this deadly weapon had been used in its too fatal success, against three lives, was evident from the blade being quite bent for several inches next the point, and the point being also turned, as if it had come into contact with some hard substance, probably the resistance of a bone.! With a few particulars, as to the deceased persons, we must close this account. The unfortunate officer, Wm. Stainer O'Grady, was of a large and somewhat dis tinguished Irish family, being the nephew of the late Lord Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer (Baron O'Grady), who, in 1831, was raised to the Peerage, by the title of Viscount Guillamore, and died in April, 1840. The young officer, who has now come to an untimely end, was cousin to the present Lord Guillamore. Mr. O'Grady's father was one of the nine sons of Darby O'Grady, Esq. , of Mount P ros p ec t, co unty Lime rick. We believe the deceased's widowed mother at present resides at Dublin or Kingstown ; and, if report be correct, this will be the second time she is doomed to mourn over the premature death of a son. A brother of the deceased, we are told, was shot in a duel some years ago with a Captain Smith—an affair which at the time caused considerable sensation in Dublin, where it oc curred. The deceased officer was in his twenty-ninth or thirtieth year. He is described to us as having had many of the characteristic s of the young Iri s h gent l eman ; h e was hot-headed, and at times intemperate, but was much liked by the soldie rs of the regiment. The dying officer declared to the chaplain, that he had lost his life in en deavouring to save the life of another. Robert Morris, whose age we were told by one per son was twenty-eight or twenty-nine, and by another twenty-four or twenty-five, was a Scotchman, a native of Aberdeen, a private in the regiment, but also employed, as we have stated, as mess - waiter. We believe ho had been about eleven years in the regiment. He was con sidered a good, steady, trustworthy man, e , and nothing had been alleged ag ainst him, exce pt some former quarrel's with the girl, to whom he appeared devotedly attached. It is said - that Lieutenant O'Grady once ordered him into confinement. for sonic neglect of duty, or act of in subordination ; but what that was we could not as certain. Isabella Haddon, as she was generally called, only completed her twentieth year on the 21st April last. We learn that this wretched girl, the fatal cause of all this crime, had long been of indifferent character. When only sixteen years of age, she m a r r i e d a man name d Patrick Territt, a private in the 97th Regiment, then stationed at Burnley Barracks. She has for four or five years lived separate from her husband, w h o , we b e li eve , is now with his regiment in Malta or Corfu, and she was employed by her mother about the kitchen, assisting in • in cooking, &c. She has left an infant, a daughter, about two years old ; this child was placed out at nurse in Burnley or the neighbourhood. offer Lord Cloncilasurry two pf.zes of 50/. each for the host Prize Essays on M: nurd and Poad making, in order to promote the objeeta of Cio Azticul tural bociety of Ireland. ErENING SUN. PRICE 5d cessor to Sir Robert Stopford, was expected to leave for this station about the 17th ult., either in the Driver or the Vixen war-steamer. We are now inclined to believe that he is not looked for quite so early, and may perhaps await the departure of his flag-ship the Queen, 110, as Sir F. Mason (who is accompanied by Lady Mason and family), and who landed yesterday under the customary salute, has already taken possession of the mansion in Strada Mezzosli, appropriated to the use of the Comman der-in-Chief, and known as the Admiralty House. The Magicienne sailed for Buda on the 31st ult., and the Acheron steam packet at one, P.m., the same day for Naples, conveying Lord and Lady Ponsonby and suite. The Vesuvius left this morning for the Pirmus with pro visions and stores for the Beacon, and conveying Mr. Fellows, the traveller in Asia Minor, who joins the lsst mentioned vessel to prosecute his researches in that country, chiefly on the coast of Lycia, and for which purpose the Beacon will not winter at Malta this year, but remain at his disposal. MALTA, Nov. s.—We have not had a single movement inwards or outwards since Tuesday, but we understand another mystery is on the tapis, the Indus and Calcutta having received sealed sailing orders, which will be carried into effect as soon as the strong N. 8., now blow ing, moderates sufficiently for the swell to subside. The Rodney was also to have formed part of this division, but is prevented by some defects in her capstan not being yet made good. An opinion prevails that these ships are intended fur the coast of Spain, where they will also be at hand in case the affair of M'Leod should. take such a turn as to render their presence necessary in the American waters. The Acheron, from Naples, hourly expected, or at any rate .the Prometheus from Marseilles, looked for on the 12th or 13th, will no doubt bring us the result of this affair. Our contemporary the Malta Times, with that incor rectness for which his journal is proverbial, states, in his last number but one, that" It is said the Indus, Calcutta, and Rodney will shortly go to the coast of Syria, and remain there until the bad weather commences." Setting aside the editor's wrong information, he appears to have entirely forgotten (or perhaps in his ignorance he never knew it) that the months of November and December are the most boisterous and stormy on the coast referred to ; and indeed it was on the 2d of December last year that the hurricane took place when the Pique was dis masted, the Zebra wrecked, the Bellerophon, and, in fact, all of the ships of war were in imminent peril of sharing a like fate, and some of them only escaped through the extraordinary efforts and superior skill of the British officers and seamen. 1., 0 7 46tv01 ,, :i . •-4 6 - . r ~—, ,:.. ~; ~ .c •" u r : At, ' ✓ ..*. • i , c) . 4S: s 1 re, ) ?., .1: .4 :d • , ,-, C ,-.. , -- 2 , ,,,, N „44),,,, ~..L D ....„,, ....,......,...,„,..,., _ ~,,,, ~:.., „, Iv: ~k ~,,,„, „,,.„.6., o "M'' - • 1 ,-,- 4, , * 1,4- ir .1 - ; 7 ., 0 li,rrr/pl: . 1- 5 .„ 4 0 1 ` ',.,'" 44„.-' , 4 " I) 14 ' s ‘ t. ) ' '1 r i - iiet • COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE; The Court and the City, " adapted from scenes by Sir Richard Steele and Mrs. Frances Sheridan" (we quote from the bills), is the title of a comedy, in five acts, which was produced at this theatre last evening. As might be expected from this announcement, the comedy has a double plot, and between the two plots the con nection is uhnost as slight as between the two parts of the town from which the play derives its name; and that connection, like the connection between Court and City, is principally maintained through the interven tion of a fortune-hunting younger brother of a gambling,, ruined nelleman, and a stock-jobbing attorney, who, for his fee,'. s euually ready to assist either courtier or t it, or both. The Court part of the story is as follows : Lord Dangerlield (Mr. Diddear), a libertine Nobleman, whose circumstances have become embarrassed through his extravagance, determines, in order te retrieve those circumstances, to force on a marriage between his daughter Louisa (Miss Cooper) and a rich, sentimentse. hesitating, over-fastidious old bachelor, Sir Paladin. Scruple (Mr. W. Ferrer:), the lady being all the while desperately enamoured of Lionel Scruple (Mr. Wigan), the nephew of the refined Sir Paladin"; while the worthy Sir Paladin himself, is really the slave of a certain Mrs. Charmington (Mrs. Nisbett), although for some unexplained cause he has taken some offence at something in her conduct, and seeks from her his dis missal in form, in order that he may for the ninth time., make an offer of his susceptible heart. This favour f e e widow laughingly vouchsafee to him, and Sir Paladhe i s introduced by Lord Dangerfield to Louisa as Jeer suitor, Sir Paladin accordingly makes his advances in feria, and, to the inexprosible delight of Louisa, declares that his re gard to female delicacy prevents him from preesing on their union with any improper and indecent haste, awl that he has no idea of being guilty of the indecorum, or , rushing into her arms until he has for a proper length of time sighed at her feet. Farren's acting in this scene was admirable ; never was a bashful man, placed, as he himself phrases it, in "an extraordinary end delicate situation," co excellently pourtrayed. Louisa, after this, has an interview with Mrs. Charniington, whom she has made her confidant, and the widow, as a means of effectually baffling Sir Paladin's future at- e tempts at love-making; gives a miniature o f h erse lf iv ui Losa, hangs it round her neck, and directs her to show it to Sir Paladin when next he seeks an interview with her. Sir Paladin is announced, and, in the, m id st of one of his most flowery speeches, perceives ne e por trait of the widow, stops short, and t a lk s abo- et the fas cination of black eyes, to the great a stonishment of Lady Dangerfield (Mrs. W. West), Losiisa's mother, who calmly observes, " 3ly daughter's eyes are blue." Poor Sir Paladin, completely overcome ley this aecoad extraordinary and delicate situation, Legs leave 44 to withdraw in the greatest confusion." Lionel returns, from abroad, and Sir Paladin, leealn,a, ; been iefo rme d by Lady Dangerlield of the true state of the. case, resigi - Louisa to his nephew, end see :s refuge in the arms of Mee. Charmingten. Lord Dangerrieldemt contented with forging his daughter to marry Sir Paladin, has also a scheme en foot for the seduction of Lady Whiffle (Madame Vestris) the niece of Sir Paladin and the wife of Si r Harry Within; (Mr. C. YntheWs). Sir Harry and Lady Whiffle Ineve , been married when mere children, ha entertaining l'igit and lofty ideas of the authority of a husband, and sl ee en tertaining equally extravagan t notions of the indepandence or a wife. The result is a congest state of backering, artfully fostered by Lord Dangescrield for his own purposes. Lady hangarfield, however, becomes acquainted with his designs, and, by her iudicious intervention, Sir Harry and. his lady are reconciled, and his Lordship is foiled. The only one of his Lordship's schemes which succeeds, is that: for marrying his brother, Captain Dangerfield (Mr. Walter Lacy) to an heiress, and promises Mr. Wine nington (Mr. Cooper), his attorney, a thousand pounds, if he can bring this desirable event to pass. The heiress fixed upon is a certain Miss Barbara Bearbinder (Mrs. W. Lacy), who has been brought up by her uncle, Mr. Bearbinder (Mr. F. Mathews), a banker in the City, and who has beguiled her leisure hours by the perusal of romances, until she is burning to be a heroine. Her uncle has, it seems, provided her with a h us b an d , in the. person of her cousin, Humphry Rumbush (Harley) who , with his father, Sir Hector Rumbush (Bartley), has just arrived in London from Somersetshire. Sir Hector uses but one argument with his son, but that has over proved a most convincing one, it is—a stout crab stick. Humphrey has always hitherto proved obedient, but when. he learns from Winnington that he is 23 years of age,. and that his father's estate is entailed, he determines to , show his independence by refusing to marry his cousin, whom he never has seen, and by marrying Winnington's niece, a young lady with whom he has thought proper to become desperately enamoured. A meeting hav ing been brought about between Dangerfield and. Barbara, of course they fall desperately in love with each other. The cousins meet and determine to assist each other's love affairs, and through the contrivance of Winning ton, Dangerfield marries Barbara, while H um ph rey i s united to Winningtons niece, an arrangement to which the old people, after a prop e r d egree o f h es i tation, and an abortive attempt on the part of Sir Hector to have recourse to his usual argument um bucenlinum, are, induced. to accede. Ilarley's Humphrey was excessively lu dicrous. In dress, manners, and appearance, he was completely the country gaby. Mrs. Walter Lacy was very good as the romanti c B ar b ara ; and Bartley, as the tyrannical country Squire, was excellent. Charles kathews, as Sir Harry Whiffle, was. effervescing as champagne ; and Madame Vestris, as Lady Whiffle, was delightfully provoking. The great character of the play is Sir Paladin Scruple, and a most difficult character it is —difficult from its very quietness. We never saw' Farrell to greater advantage than in this character ; and all those who delight in pure, genuine, and natural comedy, should see Farren's Sir Paladin Scruple. A t the fall of the curtain he came forward and announced the piece for repetition three times a week, amidst the loudest applause. At the conclusion of the comedy there was a dance by the characters, which was cleverly managed, and loudly applauded. Our readers will remember that a . -- - ------------. man, name& Serein, was arrested some time ago near Orleans, for having carried off two female children from that town, and, after a criminal assault on them, h a ving murdered them under circumstances of peculiar atr ocit y . He was brought to trial a few days since for this crime, before the Court. of Assizes at Orleans, and the proceedings; lasted three days. From the prisoner's own declarations it appeared that he had suff oca ted the poor children in his cart, and concealed their bodies for some tinie in a loft in his house, under a heap of straw ; he had then conveyed them to the wood in which their mangled re mains were found. Several witnesses were heard, who. established the identity of the children, and the circum stances of their being inveigled away from Orleans ; bee the Crown lawyers requi red that the public should he ex _ eluded from Court dur in g the remainder of the evidence, as it was of a nature nut tit for public disclosure. Th, circumstances being fully preyed , Serein was fo und guilty, and condemned to death. He was in a state of apparent stupefaction during the proceedings, and was rem ove d from the Court amid the loudest demonstrations. of in_ di g nation on the part of the auditor y .

MURDER ON COMBE DOWN. --- Early yesterday (Wednesday) morning our city was much excited, by a report that a murder had been com mitted on the previous night on Combe Down. From all that we have been enabled to learn at the time at which we write, it appears that four men, two of them named Bancroft and Stinnard, had been drinking toge ther at the Carriage and Horses public-house, on the Down, kept by Mr. Payne. During the evening a dis agreement arose, and the parties appearing inclined to fight, the landlord dismissed them from his house. A. fight subsequently ensued out of doors amongst the par ties, after which Bancroft went up and offered to shake hands with Stinnard, when the latter immediately up lifted his hand and struck Bancroft on the breast. He immediately fell, and never rose alive again, for, upon being lifted up, a large clasp knife was discovered stick ing in his breast, and which appeared to have been for cibly plunged in up to the haft. From the instantaneous death which followed the blow it is conjectured that the murderous weapon must have pierced the heart. Mr. Massey, surgeon, was immediately sent for. He drew out the knife, but - all efforts to save the deceased were vain. The men who were engaged in the affray. together with the man who stabbed the deceased, went off to their respective homes to bed, where they were severally apprehended and brought into the city. They under went a short formal examination at Chandos House yesterday (Wednesday), when they were remanded, in order to await the result of the Coroner's inquest, which will be held this morning (Thursday) The assassin is a sullen-looking youth, and betrayed a dogged indiffe • rence about the proceedings, which did not appear to have the slightest effect upon him. So great was the excite ment occasioned by the horrid occurrence, and the numbers of people who followed the prisoners on their way from the gaol to Chandos House that it was deemed advisable to escort them by a number of. the police. These unhappy effects of passion appear to be awfully on the increase. Scarcely a week passes but some fatal re sult is recorded, in some part of the kingdom or other, from the un-English use of " the knife."—Buth chronicle of this day. THE LEVANT MAIL. TURKEY. CONSTANTINOPLE, Ocr. 27.—Yesterday morning the Nile steamer arrived here from Alexandria, bringing back Tafiz Bey, the Turkish Envoy, and a further in stalment of tribute, amounting to two and a half millions of piastres. From the frequency of these remittances, though their amount be not very considerable, it woilld really appear to be the Pachles intention to fulfilMs fm t e h eo e ls c t o gt u ol o n o t a ri oy p a r td e eas c i I n reisp t st r i u od t ne h ,s pecuniary obligations with th e P or t e . Th e prospects of p a oa t nn dd t i h nh e go plvoreenvseee however nm disposedmomyelnett the tl o e f rms ,ayl i cannot really discover any consolatory or redeeming fea ture to dwell upon ; for if we turn from the internal affairs to the foreign relations of the Porte, the indica tions of weakness and decay are still more palpable. The fact is, that in her transactions with the European Powers, Turkey has lost all sort of independence, and their Ambassadors and Ministers arrogate the right of dictating to her not only in matters of foreign policy, hut also of domestic economy ; whilst the least scrupu lous of them, and such as have most to bestow in the way of bribery to the Turkish Ministers, are sure to obtain a preponderating influence here. M. Titoff, the Russian Minister, presented a few days ago a note addressed in the most patronising tone to the Porte, in which he informs it that the local Government of Servia have, at the special request of the Emperor, duly reprimanded the subordinate authorities who had countenanced the revolt of the Bulgarians on their fron tier. The Porte is further informed in this very conde scending epistle that certain Servian deputies who had through Russian influence been exiled, and are at present residing at Constantinople, will be permitted to return to Servia. All this officious and insolent interference in the internal affairs of the country is, to say the least, of the most evil augury for its welfare and independence. Another affair in which the French as well as the Rus sian Ambassador has interested himself, is a dispute be tween the Catholic and Greek clergy of Syria. A formal complaint has been made by the latter that the Roman priests by adopting the Greek language and costume, and cunningly suppressing and changing certain parts of their own liturgy, such as designating the Pope chief of the re ligion, &c., they have succeeded in seducing from the folds of their proper pastors nearly the whole of their flocks, who have thus been unable to distinguish the one from the other ; the number of the members of the Greek church, which was originally two hundred thou sand, has been reduced by this means to sixteen. What they require is, that the Catholic clergy shall henceforth be compelled to wear some distinctive dress or badge. The Catholics, on the other hand, who are sup ported by M. de Pontois, the French Minister, as the Greeks are by M. Titoff, declare that the Greeks, as the less numerous body, should be made to wear these dis tinctive marks, more particularly as they are of their own seeking. The affair has not yet been settled. DISTRINGAS ON STOCK. The following order has been made under the recent Act, tranferring the equity jurisdiction of the Court of Exchequer to the Court of Chancery, for. ,regulating the practice as to putting a . d4trifigus on stock, whit;l7, practise existed in Exchequer; and is by the Act trans ferred to Chancery : " ORDER OF COURT.

" 4. That the Governor and Company of the Bank of England having been served with such writ of distringus, and a notice not to permit the transfer of the stock in such notice and in the said affidavit specified, or not to pay the dividends thereon, and having afterwards re ceived a request from the party or parties in whose name or names such stock shall be standing . , or some person on his or their behalf, or representing him or them, to allow such transfer, or to pay such dividends, shall not by force or in consequence of such distringas be authorised, with out the order of this Court, to refuse to permit such transfer to be made, or to withhold payment of such dividends for more than eight days after the date of such request.

The Ball for the relief of the Polish Refugees took place last evening at Guildhall, and was as successful as the best friends of liberty and national indepindence could wish. The hall was crowded to excess with a select company, anxious to testify their affection for a nation which has done so much for Christian ity, and displayed a spirit of bravery and he roism which has never been surpassed. Lord Dudley Stuart, and the other patrons of these un fortunate exiles, deserve great praise. The Corporation of London is also entitled to great merit. It has, on every occasion, given the use of the Hall for these cha ritable festivals, in behalf of an oppressed and high spirited people ; and the example of a city of such in fluence cannot fail to have a most beneficial effect. The entertainments were conducted on a magnificent scale. Some of the best singers at present in the metropolis lent their aid, and amongst the rest Miss Adelaide Kemble, who formed a great at traction, and whose singing produced a great effect. Of the dancing we need not give any account. The crowd was excessive, and the gay dresses and cheerful appear ance of the different parties would have delighted the heart even of the Emperor Nicholas. Miss Kemble sung the air from Pacini's opera of Niobe, " I tuoi frequenti palpiti," which is introduced by Rubini in the second act of the Donna del Logo. Notwithstanding the violent exertion required for this display of Miss Kemble's powers, the relentless audience " screamed out for more," and with graceful good-nature she once more gratified her enthusiastic admirers. Upwards of 1,200 persons must have been assembled on this occasion. Amongst them were the little Prince Econchatti Mice, the son of the renowned warrior Oceola, King of the Red Hills. He was attired in the costume of the Chiefs of his country, and was a sort of little lion. We recognised but few faces which one i: accustomed to see about town. Mr. Alfred Montgomery, Mr. Arthur Purvis, and some few others from the " far west," drove down to the fete, as well as the Duke of Brunswick. ' The ball was kept up to a late hour this morning, and the exhibition, altogether, was the best that has yet been given on such an occasion. STATE OF TRADE AT MANCHESTER.--We regret to say that, discouraging as the state of business has been in the town for some weeks past, it was worse yesterday than on any former occasion. Owing to the present severe weather, there was an almost total cessa tion in the purchases of yarn for the Continent; ar.d the market was, consequently," exceedingly flat, with a decline of id. to id. per lb. on many descriptions of yarn. For goods, too, the demand was very trifling, and prices of most descriptions continue gradually to decline.— Manchester Guardian. The population of Bavaria at the end of 1840," says the Franconian Mercury," comprised 959,099 fami lies and 4,370,977 souls. During the last three years, the augmentation has been 55,000 souls. Munich con tains 95,000 inhabitants, and Nuremberg 46,000." CANDIA. We hare advices front the island of Candia as late as the 25th inst. Nothing, however, of much importance has been communicated. The island is now quite tran quil, and confidence is fully restored. 22d.—A Turkish Government steamer arrived here to-day from Smyrna. The object of her coming was twofold, the one to free us of some of the regular troops, the other to convey the presents his Imperial Majesty the Sultan has been pleased to forward to Veli Bey, eldest son of his Excellency Mustapha Pacha, for his conduct during the late insurrection. A handsome sword was the object sent to Veli, who has also received proofs of the favour of his Sovereign, in his nomination to the title of a Pacha. and the decoration of the Nichan Iftihar in magnificent brilliants. A horrid case of murder, accompanied by suicide, has recently occurred. A Greek, the .Captain of a small coasting vessel, having quarrelled with some of his crew about a twenty piastre piece (about four shillings), stabbed three of them so badly that they shortly died. Being pursued by the officers of justice, and fearing the consequences of his rash act, he stabbed himself in two places, and afterwards endeavoured to cut his throat. He was, however, prevented, but his self-inflicted wounds proved mortal, for he died in about ten days afterwards, suffering excruciating pains. The only vessels of war at present in the port of Suda are her Majesty's ship Benbow, Captain Stewart, C. 8., and the steam-frigate Stromboli, which has recently brought the former three months' provisions. The French corvette Diligence and a brig of war are also in port. The Tahri Bahri sails to-morrow, and is immediately expected to return here. She will probably afterwards proceed to Constantinople. EGYPT. ALEXANRDRIA, OCT. 26.—There is nothing political stirrinc , here—we are all commercial at present. A Greek, a great friend of the Pacha, has bought all the gum arable in Government stores at 265 piastres the cantar, payable in assignments. These assignments are by Government on the 'Treasury for pay, &c., to persons in the.employ of Government ; but as the delay in pay ment is very great, the receivers of them sell them to Saraffs and monied men, at a large discount for ready cash. Assignments for monthly pay will not be paid for twelve to eighteen months ; the receivers want money to support themselves and families, and so they must sell them for what they will fetch. I have known them at 30 per cent. discount. Latterly they have been at 12 to 20 per cent. discount, according to their probable time of payment. The now Turkish commercial treaty does not work well. It has imposed new burthens on trade without les sening the old ones. His ilighness has postponed until after the Ramazan his journey into Upper Egypt. A remittance of 250 thousand talaris in money was made at Constantinople on the occasion of the departure of the Nile steamer, which has brought back hither Terfik Bey. This punc tuality of Mehemet Ali in fulfilling his engagements must assure him of the Sultan's sympathy, already much disposed in favour of his vassal. The latter, in order to show him a mark of respect, and of his wish to conciliate his good will, caused the crew and commandant of the Nile to assume the Turkish costume. It is, however, positively affirmed that this costume will not be adopted here, and some say, even, that Said and Sami Bey will soon reassume the Egyptian dress. General Ventura and family leave in the French packet for Malta, to return to France. He came from Cairo on board the small steamer which navigates on the Nile, and belongs to his Highness's special service. We have, at a few days' interval, learnt of several cases of plague, which, at this season, are considered the forerunners of its re appearance in the ordinary season; but the new sanatory Commission is much engaged in concerting the best measures to hinder the development of the malady. Within the last few days we have had great mortality, but it must be attributed to the fevers which rage in this part of the country , . No news from country,. From Cairo we learn that M. Ddzol, who had for a while ceased to officiate, has been re-employed as tutor to the sons of the Viceroy, still minors. The Abyssinians who had been to Rome on a mission are gone to Syria, and are on their way to Jerusa lem. Father Rilla, the missionary who played so active a part in the affair of the mountains, and who, it appears, is on exceedingly good terms with the English, left for Malta by last packet. It is reported that at Cairo a loud discussion had taken place between the Paella and the English Consul, on ac count of the construction of a few sheds for the service of the navigation of the Nile, his Highness having re fused them the privilege of hoisting any flag other than his, although the sheds belong to the Europeans.

Mason, K.C.8., in the Impregnable, 104; the departure of which vessel from Plymouth hav ing taken place on the Sth ult. Contrary winds, however, appear to have driven her back, and she did not get clear away before the 13th Early on Sunday morning, the 31st ult., she made her . number to the Palace, and soon after came to anchor in Valetta harbour, when sa lutes were exchanged with the Powerful, bearing the C 8., fla of Rear-Admiral Sir John Ackworth Om manney,.g who, without it appears the courtesy of any previor suc s no tification from the Lords of the Admiralty, is to be ceeded as second in command by Rear-Admiral Siring F. Mason, whose flag and staff were yesterday morn transferred to the 'Howe, 120, when the Gallant Captain, Sir W. 0. Pell (who is appointed to pDe tford Dockyard, to which we understand lie proceeds overland) ‘. , rest gned the command of her into the hands of Captain Smart. On leaving the ship, Sir W. 0. Pell was loudly cheered by the officers ,. seame n, and marines, by whom he is universally beloved and respected. Rear-Admiral Sir J. A. Ommanney will leave for England in the Powerful, 84, after the arrival of the Oriental from England, ex- pected about the 13th instant, until which, as senior of 1 the two, he will retain the command.
