GL6BE.—We do not regard the decision of the New York Supreme Court, in the case of Mr. aleLeod, as in aolvina danger ,of a breach between England and Ante,- rice. The Federal Government has already distinctly recognised, through Mr. Webster, the absurdity of the supposition that the American people can desire to puniSh en in dividual for an act of which the responsibility is assumed as its own by the authorities who had a right to command his services. From those authorities evidently and not from Mr. M'Leod personally, satisfaction, If satisfaction is due, must be sought on the part of the United States. Whatever disposition local courts have to stickle for their jurisdiction,itis perfectly evident that such an exercise of that jurisdiction as should hazard the peace between two great nations is rather too serious a thing. We presume that the State of New York is scarcely competent to make war on England without the autho rity and aid of the Federal Power. That Power must, therefore, be able to control such acts on the part of Yew York as would be equivalent to a declaration 'of war with England. It would be too absurd to suppose that a section of the American people is empowered, un controlled, to compromise the whole people with a fo reign State. The condition on which a single State is entitled to defence against foreigners by the arms oc the whole federation must be (either expressed or implied) a condition of deference to the Federal Power on all international questions. The State of New York cannot combine the advantage of doing just as it pleases towards foreigners (without responsi bilityz either to them or the Federal Power) with the right of calling on that power for defence against foreigners. Otherwise, the Government of the Lnitecl States would be placed in this position towards the rest of the civilised would—that the several sections of its citizens might commit any outrage they pleased, might sanction such outrage by the forms of law, and that the government of the United States should iave no power to control their conduct, but should be responsible for defending its r erpetrators against all hostile conSequenees.. It is clear that responsibility for conduct implies thd power of controlling it. It New York is not responsible . , to foreign Powers for its treatment of their subjects, but the United States are responsible for the acts of New York, then, at some stage or other, the federal Government must have the power to prevent such acts -in the State of New York as would provoke war with forea e eners. To suppose otherwise were to sup poseeither taat foreigners must put up with whatever a section of the American people may think fit to do, or that the United States must espouse the quarrel of that section of its :population, evea though • the majority should deem it a rash or unjust one—without having any power of putting a veto on that rashness or injustice. These alternatives are plainly absurd ; and there is no other, except the rational one, that the Federal Govern ment, being responsible for the acts of the States to wards foreigners, has power to arrest those acts when they constitute a national provo9ation. It is for the fe deral authority of course to judge when that case occurs ; to deny it the power of interposition at that point is to defy common sense. STANDARD.—There has been a rumour afloat during the last 24 hours, to the effect that the "Deficit" Ministry have resolved to tender their resignation im mediately upon the Queen's return to town. We have not been able to trace this rumour to any authentic source ; perhaps it has been suggested by certain con versations at Woburn. We, however, do not believe one word of the story ; we shall not believe the Minis ters out until we have seen their successors actually a week in office, and even then one must not be confident that the Ladies of the Bedchamber have laid no mine. It is quite clear from Lord John Russell's manifesto, that his Lordship did not, 10 clays ago, contemplate retirement from office, and though her Iliajesty and Lord Mel bourne might have lately- had an opportunity of hearing from the head of the house of Russell more truth and sounder principles of policy than could be obtained from Lord John, it is not very likely that the hospitable Duke of Bedford would use the occasion " to school" the Sovereign, or to employ arguments to Lord Melbourne like those by which Jack, in the " Tale of a Tub," is persuaded to hang himself. As to the Duke of Welling ton, who was of the Woburn party, it is well known that his Grace will not obtrude his advice in such a matter. The rumour is therefore doubtless to be dismissed as one of those conjectures which a sense of what ought to occur builds upon the slightest circumstances. That Ministers are committing a gross and a very sordid cheat in retaining office, we have already sufficiently proved—a cheat parallel to that of which we read some months ago in the police reports. It was prac tised by a fellow who hired himself as a coachman and groom to a gentleman whose carriage and horses were, from some cause, in the country. After taking three months' wages and maintenance, the knave confessed that he had been a water-side porter, and never handled a set of reins or a currycomb in his life. Now this is just what the Queen's Ministers are doing : they are taking wages and maintenance, upon the pretence of services walicii they know they never can render. Their Minis try legally ended on the 4th of June ; it had virtually ended more than two years before. They are now frau dulently- overholding, not merely for the sake of issues and profits, but in order to commit waste. . COURIER.—We could yesterday do no more than barely allude to the startling nature of the American in telligsnee that had just then reached us ; but its subject matter is too serious, and its probable consequences of too alarming and awful a character, to be hastily treated of or aproeched without a full and impartial considera tiou of its merits, as well as of the gravely, important results involved in its issue. The Supreme Court of the state of New York has given its decision on a'r. M‘Leed's case, negativing every plea urged for his dis charge from custody, and handing him over to be tried - by an American Jury, upon charges of murder and arson. Into the grounds upon which the Judges of the Supreme Court have arrived at this decision, and upon Which they have professed to rely for its justification in the eyes of the world, it falls not within the scope of our present purpose to inquire. There was, however, a sharpness in the language in which this cleca.aon was couched—au acrimony closely verging upon vindictiveness—and display of rancorous zeal utterly at variance with our notions of the calm, clear, dispassionate purity which should ever preside over the judgment -seat and charac terise its decisions, which we cannot let pass unnoticed. The one-sidedness of the grounds alleged by the Supreme Court as constituting the basis of their judgment is not more palpably visible to •the eye of the lawyer than i s the tone of angry partizanship that pervades the elah es _ rately drawn up document to the mind of the unprofes sional reader. And when the Supreme Court of Ne w York has thus shown itself so pervious to prejudice, and so sensible to the influence of mob dictation, what grounds - of hope can the most sanguine entertain that the trial for which M'Leod has been reserved will be conducted with any regard either to t he demands of justice, or even the claims of seeming decency ? The circumstances surrounding his case—the spirit of fierce hatred towards England which pervades large classes of the American community=—the un restrained license they give their passions—and the feelings of rankling animosity, as well against the individual as the country, which have accompanied his arrest and imprisonment—all combine to preclude the possibility of any thing like a fair or impartial trial for the accused. Nothing, to aur minds, appears more clearly than, be the evidence for the defence what it may —be the proof of the accused's innocence as strong and conclusive as the nature of such proofs will allow—that his arraignment will be followed by conviction, and con viction by execution. THE BARBAROUS MURDER AT EXETER. CONFESSION CF BRINSMEAD. (From the Flying Post.) On this dark and appalling event we are happy in being enabled to relieve the public mind by placing before it the confession of Brinsmead, made in the presenee of several persons in the gaol this morning. 110 says, as has been communicated to us, that .there were three of them in company when they left the Cattle Market Inn, as stated by Mr. Tay lor and his companion ; but that this third person wished them a good night, and left them at the corner of South street. He says, he knows this person perfectly by sight, b :t persists he does not know his name. Himself and. ats then proceeded through South-street and Hollo way -street, into the Topsham-road, and thence into the leading to the river, as before stated. When they g,lt to the bottom, Pitts demanded some money of Mr. ..Bnriett, and lhat gentleman gave Brimsted sixpence, as he said, to get something to drink. He also gave Pitts a si.Wiog, but, the latter swore he would not take so small a sum, and with an oath he swore lie would not have more, as he knew he (Bennett) had plenty of money. Pitts then seized Mr. Bennett round the middle, and " bang'd" him up against the rails, calling to lc. Brims (as he held. Mr. Bennett), saying, "Let o at Pitts alio struck him a severe blow in the and then made use of his knife, which Mr. Pr? `l , l ett succeeded in wresting from him. A des; p? rate struggle ensued between Pitts and Mr. Bennett by the d oor of the. boat-h prb -, e_ - Iledth ( 0t. 9 and in thi s t h ey l ap - Mr. lidge of the water, an d at length Pittspushed Bennet foto the water. , Brins tnea d persists-he had no hand i n this last act, but. heard the House." now said t 4.) • you, ye settled Brins him, we had better make off." Pitts replied, "- his eyes, he has early cut my finger off, and had nearly cut my throat." It is understood that there is a severe cut on one of Pitts' fingers. They then made their way to Sellick's lodging-house at Westgate (a Tom-and-Jerry shop in that part of the city), and when they got there, Pitts took a knife and scraped the blood from his jacket. (This jacket, which had before been spoken of, presents the appearance of something of this kind having beers done.) It is understood that at Sellick's Pitts changed a sovereign, and they took 10s. each. We also under stand that the watch ®f the deceased gentleman was left deposited at Senick's, and is now in the possession of the police. This account goes so far to exonerate the females Dickers and Stapleton. Indeed, the statement of Brins mead throws an air of doubt over the whole of the story told by Ann Trinn. It is remarkable also that Brins mead, when taken into custody by Stuckes, had a sixpence, and one sixpence only on his person. It; is known, -as we are told, that Mr. Bennett had fit.:- teen sovereigns in his pocket that afternoon ; having drawn that sum. We might here likewise mention that the name of the female brought from Newton St. Cyr es, is Butson, and not Vicary ; and being confronted s ith her, Trinn declared the had never seen her before ; rod that this was not the female with whom she had been in company on Friday night. Butson consequently was again returned to her home. The Lord Lieutenant, during his absence, has appointed Sir Harry Verney, Bart., Vice-Lieutennnt.— Aylesbury News. The second caravan of 170 souls left the neigh bourhood of Worms the other day for a Russian colony in the Crimea, not far from Marienpol. WINDSOR, FRIDAY.—A new organ, of con siderable size and power, is now building for the express use of Prince Albert, and is nearly completed. It is in tended to be placed in the music-room at the Castle. His Royal Highness, some time since, received lessons upon this instrument, and the Prince now performs upon it in a very talented and highly respectable manner. The Lord Lieutenant has been pleased to ap point the following gentlemen to be stipendiary magis trates, viz.:—Edward Gonne Bell, Esq., for the county of Kerry, in the room of W. N. Roche, Esq., removed to the county of Clare ; and Nicholson Kelly, Esq., for the county of Westmeath, in the room of M. Crofton, Esq., removed to the county of Louth.—Dublin paper.

NORFOLK CIRCUIT Norwich, July 28. (Before Mr. Baron ALDERSON and a Special Jury.) PALMER AND F:SH, EXECUTORS OF HOWES, V. IRVING, ESQ. The following is a fuller report of this case, which we briefly noticed yesterday. The plaintiff's are the executors of the assured, Howes, Palmer is a respectable attorney, and the Mayor of Yar mouth, and Fish is a cabinetmaker in the same town. The defendant is chairman of the London Alliance As- surance Company. It appeared that the assured was born at Yarmouth in 1817, and lived there until the year 1838, when he went to try his fortunes at Hull. He was then a surgeon's wax instrument maker, but in 1839 he utterly failed and gave up business. He was at Yarmouth once or twice between the time of his failure and the Ist of October, 1840, when he finally left Hull and went to live in his 'leave town. He was at that time in want of money, and some few hundred pounds were advanced by the plaintiff (Palmer) to him. He had no security to give, but it was proposed that he should insure his life, • and accordingly he, in the month of October, forwarded proposals to the Alliance, the Argus, • the Law Life, the Crown, the Economic, and Palladium offices for insuring his life in various amounts. Howes answered the ques tions put to him by the offices, and several respectable medical men, and amongst them the medical referee of the Alliance, certified to the goodness of his health. In the result, the proposal to the Argus was not persevered in, that to the Economic was rejected, and How-es succeeded in effecting policies with the Alliance and the three other offices to tile amount of 3,8001. This done, it was proposed by Howes that he should assign the policies to Palmer as a . security for the money advanced, and accordingly a draught deed was pre pared for that purpose, but never engrossed. On the 21st Nov. the policy with the Alliance was completed, and a very few days afterwards the assured became very unwell, betook himself to his bed, and died on the sth December. Mr. Ferrier, a surgeon at Yarmouth, who at that time was medical referee of the Alliance, and who certified the insurable life of Howes, was called in by Towler, Palmer's clerk, to attend the assured on the 30th of No vember. He saw him, and at once pronounced that he was doomed never to rise from his bed, and his predic tions were verified. Ferrier called on the evening of the same day, when he found Towler in the sick man's room. The assured said "he was making his will," and asked Ferrier to attest it, which, after reading it over to Ilowes he did. By this will Howes, after recit ing that Palmer " had on several occasions kindly as sisted him in his difficulties by the advancement of various sums of money, when he was unable to give him any, or but very inadequate security for tho re payment," bequeathed to Palmer " all and every his real and personal estate whatsoever, and wheresoever, whether in possession, reversion, or remainder, vested or contingent," &c., subject to the payment of his funeral expenses and debts. The assured's effects were sworn under 4,000/., the policies alone being 3,8001. This will Towler stated was prepared by him at the express request and direction of Howes, without any knowledge of the plaintiff, but he took the will to Palmer on the following day. In order to show the insurability of the assured's life 25 witnesses were called, from Hull and Yarmouth, who, undoubtedly, gave him an excellent character for sobriety and health. They one and all said they had frequent oppor tunities of witnessing the habits of the assured, and from their account he appeared to be a miracle of temperance, especially for one whose life was passed in public-houses; he seemed also W be free from even the ordinary bodily ailments of humanity. Numerous medical men, in cluding all who had examined him for the insurance offices, deposed to the soundness of his constitution and the entire absence of consumption, they having applied the usual tests without detecting the presence of that dis- I order. In order to account for the sudden and enormous in- crease of disease about the time the policies were effected, it was shown that there was a great storm at Yarmouth about the middle of last November, that the assured was on the beach, watching the efforts of a vessel in distress, that he then and there caught a cold, which fell on his lungs, and brought on rapid inflammation of them, and which car • tied him off in a few days. Ferier, who attended him in his last illness, stated that the mucous discharge was thick and tenacious, indicative of acute inflammation of the lungs, brought on by recent cold, and not at all indi cative of morbid and long-standing disease or consump tion. Mr. LAW addressed the jury most ably and at great length on be half of the defendant, and at a late hour the Court adjourned. _ THURSDAY, JULY 29. The trial was resumed this morning, and three sur geons from Hull were examined. Their evidence showed that in 1839 they had attended the mother. of the as sured in a case of decided pulmonary consumption, of which she died in March, 1840, at Hull. One of them at the time he was attending her had frequent opportunities of seeing the assured, and told him that he was affiibted with the same disease, and that un less he altered his course of life he would follow his mother to an early grave. He was at that time indulging in habits of intemperance. The two other doctors at tended the assured himself in 1839 and 1840, when he was afflicted with the same disease of which his mother died. He was told of his danger and warned that he would not live a twelvemonth unless he wholly gave up drinking ardent spirits ; he asked one of them if he thought he should recover if he went to his native town (Yarmouth), and was told that it was at all events the best thing he could possibly do, and he left Hull and went to Yarmouth shortly afterwards •, on his arrival at Yarmouth, however, he continued in habits of intempe rance, and in a few months was in his grave. Mr. Baron ALDERSON, at this stage of the proceedings, asked Mr. Thesiger if he could contradict the fact that the assured had been attended by the medical men in the manner they had represented? Mr. THESIGER replied he certainly could not. The Learned JUDGE then said he would, if Mr. The siger wished it, take the opinion of the Jury as to the truth of the surgeons' evidence ; but if it was admitted to pe true, he was very clearly of opinion that the cause was at an end. The 7th plea of the defendant stated, that the policy was obtained by Howes by fraudulent misrepresentation. One of the questions put to him by the office was—" who was his usual medical man?" to which he deliberately and under his own hand answered, "he never had a medical attendant." Upon the faith and belief of that, amongt other representations of the assured, the office executed the policy ; it was now proved to be false, within the knowledge of the assured, and the plaintiffs, therefore, who sued only as the execu tor; of Howes, could not recover. The Learned Judge said, he had no doubt on this point, but he would consult his Learned Brother. His Lordship accordingly left, and on his return he said Mr. Justice Williams entirely concurred in the view he had taken. The Jury were then directed to find a verdict for the defendant, upon the plea alleging that Howes obtained the policy by fraud, and were discharged from giving a verdict upon the other issues, the finding for the defendant on this material one having rendered it unnecessary to consider the others. WESTERN _CIRCUIT—Exeter, July 29. The commission for holding the assizes for the county of Devon was opened in this city yesterday by Mr. Baron Rolfe. his Lordship then proceeded to the cathedral, and attended divine service. The calendar contains the names of 39 prisoners, and there are 23 cases entered in the cause list, 2 of them are to be tried by special Juries, and it is to be under stood that 7 of them are undefended. A horrible murder has been committed here within the last week, but whether or not the parties will be brought to trial at the present assizes is doubt ful ; the case is now undergoing the most searching investigation before the magistrates. A re port is current that a man has made a confession, and such a statement has appeared in one of the provincial papers, but I am assured that it is without foundation. Upon the inquest the Coroner stated to the reporters that the publication of the proceedings would in all proba bility have a tendency to defeat the ends of justice, and required from them an assurance that they would not publish anything that might then take place until the inquiry was concluded. The reporters not choosing to give any reply to this request, the Coroner at once ordered the room to be cleared, and the reporters and the public were excluded. This morning the actual business of the assizes cos , menced, Mr. Baron Rolfe sitting in the Crown Court, and Mr. Justice Maule on the civil side. CHESHIRE.—Cke.r.ter, July 29. The Commission of Asstre for this county was opened at Chester yesterday evening, before the Lord Chief Baron and Mr. Justice Erskine. CROWN SIDE. This morning, at ten o'clock, Kt' Justice Erskine took his seat in the Crown Court, and after the Grand Jury, of whom Sir R. Brooke was Foreman, had been sworn, the Learned Judge delivered his charge. The calendar is unusually heavy for the summer as • sizes ; no less than sixty-five prisoners, several of whom are for very serious offences. There are five charged with wilful murder, one with rape, two with stealing I,oooh in banknotes at Samtheach, and no less than fourteen with burglary, some of an aggravated nature, There are also eleven for taking part in the recent elec tion riots in the county, and the calendar is distinguished by several cases of stabbing, and one nameless offence. POLICE INTELLIGENCE: MANSION-HOUSE. The LORD IVIAvon stated that he felt pleasure in men tioning that he had received a Post-office order for two guineas, to be applied to the purposes expressed in the following letter : Halifax, Yorkshire, July 27, 1841. "My Lord,—Having seen in the newspapers of yes terday an account of the most cruel and detestable hoax of sending to a literary gentleman in great necessity a fictitious check for 201. signed • W. Day, and as I am, I believe, the only one of that name at all connected with literature, I have, from various circumstances which have recently occurred, every reason to believe that this hoax forms part of a disgraceful and systematic attempt made for some time past to bring my name into disre pute, in consequence of a threatened exposure on my part of some very disgraceful publishinr , transactions, which will b e d u l y b rought to light, and in the hopes that amongst literary men the inference might be that was an author of so heartless a piece of villainy. Will you utherefore, my L or d, through the medium of Mr. H o bl er, j un., do me the favour to assure this lite rar‘y‘ gentleman , V whoev er he may be, of my deepest sym pathy for his situation, and my regret that the griev ances of (if not the real " Simon Pure " endeavoured to beimplied) at least one of the name, will not allow him to contribute more than the enclosed Post-office order for two guineas towards alleviating a distressing position, augmented by the machinations of some contemptible individual. "I have the honour to be, my Lord, with the greatest I respect, your Lordship's most obedient servant, "CHARLES WILLIAM DAY. " To the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor." The Ion]) MAYOR in handing the post-office letter to Mr. Hobler, jun., observed that the writer adopted a very honourable and decisive mode of . proving that it was quite impossible to attribute to him the heartless and scandalous trick upon the unfortunate gentleman to Avhom the fictitious check had been transmitted, and whose condition of body and mind was described as most deplorable. A young woman of respectable appearance, who seemed tollabour under some affection of the head, was placed at the bar by a policeman, who stated that she leaped or tumbled from a boat into the Thames, and would most assuredly have been drowned if it had not been for the exertions of the waterman, who narrowly risked his t . nvn life to save hers. John Spooner stated that he was a waterman on the City side of London-bridge. The young woman hired him to row her a short distance in the river. She ap peared to be unwell and uneasy, and he told her to keep steady, but she suddenly started over the side of the boat, and immediately sunk. It was with the greatest difficulty he saved her, on account of the tide and the craft, and was very near going over himself in the struggle to get hold of her, and if that had been the case they would in all human probability have been both drowned. One of the Inspectors, and others of the police who witnessed the conduct of the poor waterman, said that they had given up the girl for lost, and that if the skill and coolness which the waterman had exhibited had been wanting at the moment, the world would not have saved her. The father of the girl said that she was of an ex tremely timid disposition, and had been some time sub ject to fits, and that he entertained no doubt at all that a fit was the cause of her fall into the water. The LORD MAYoa--But from what the waterman says I must infer that she jumped in. The waterman—She certainly did, my Lord. I can't tell you with what difficulty I got her up. The young woman said that she got into the boat, thinking that a row on the water would do her good, but that when she got on a little way she found her head get worse, and she tried to stand up, but how she fell overboard she could not at all say. One of her fits must have come upon her. The LORD MAYOR—WeII, your father will take you home. You owe your life to this poor waterman, whose conduct cannot be too highly commended. I am happy to see the police so anxious as they have shown them selves upon this occasion to come forward and do jus tice to the exertions of the man, and care shall be taken to inform the Humane Society of the case. PREVENTION OF THE IMPOSITION OF CAB-DRIYERS.— By the direction of. Alderman Wilson, Mr. Davis; of the house of Davis Brothers, opticians, of New Bond-street, made an experiment of the efficacy of a very extraordi nary instrument, in the Egyptian Hall and Saloon of the Mansion House. The instrument, which was stated to be their invention,is intended to prevent the imposition of cabriolet-drivers, a most notorious class, by indicating the distance their vehicle travels. This is shown on a small face by an index, or hand, inside the vehicle. The means by which the object is accomplished appeared, Mr. Davis, said, to be as simple and self-evident as it was original, although almost incredible until the ar rangement was known. He then drew a miniature cab riolet from the Egyptian Hall along the Saloon to the front of the Mansion House. After having set the in strument he subsequently measured the distance with a string, and requested the Alderman to compare the number of yards indicated by the measurement with the hand on the face of the instrument, when, much to the surprise of those who witnessed the experiment, the index and string completely agreed. The same instrument could, the inventor stated, be applied or removed to any vehicle, being totally indepen dent of the size of the wheel. The manner in which the thing is effected, as far as we could collect from the description, is as follows : The measurement of the ground is transferred from the wheel of the carriage to a small roller kept in the peri phery of the wheel by a spring, and by a mechanical contrivance,. known as a hook's-joint, which is attached to the sliding spindle of the roller. This mechanism ac commodates itself to the eccentricity of the wheel and to every motion of the carriage, and renders it impossi ble to be put out of order. The measurement of the ground being thus transferred to the roller, is again transferred to some mechanism, similar to the works of a watch, inside the carriage, and thus the number of miles the vehicle has travelled is accurately indicated. Alderman WILSON, at the close of the experiments, expressed very great admiration at the extraordinary ingenuity of the invention, which would, he conceived. be hailed with delight by the public, and heard of with dismay by the cab-drivers. Mr. Davis said that no doubt the drivers would be an noyed by the application of this instrument, although it would certainly increase their business, inasmuch as vast numbers gave up all idea of travelling in cabs in conse quence of the extortion, which amounted, upon the fairest calculation, to about 50 per cent., and which had led to the intolerable abuse so frequently and loudly complained of. . Alderman WILSON said that the invention struck him as most valuable, and he felt convinced that Government would, in a case where the advantages were so palpable, pass a law to make it Compulsory upon the proprietors of public vehicles to carry such checks upon imposition, as the improvement was decidedly a metropolitan one. He also was persuaded, that the first Cab Company that adopted the instruments would meet with infinitely more encouragement than the vehicle's would receive which were determined to adhere to the old plan. We understood Mr. Davis to state that each vehicle could be supplied with an instrument at a price very little exceeding one pound. QUEEN-SQUARE. Thomas Haggerty, a respectable looking man, was charged with attempting to commit suicide. Policeman 53 B stated than on the previous evening, about six o'clock, he saw the prisoner descend the steps on the Surrey side of Westminster-bridge, and attempt to throw himself into the water, but he was staid by a waterman. Witness expostulated with him on his rash conduct, and advised him to go home, as he was drunk, but defendant refused, and swore that neither the con stable or any other man should prevent him from drown. ing himself. The defendant said he was so drunk as not to be aware of what he did. He had no wish to destroy him self, and was thankful that his life had been saved. Mr. BURRELL ordered the defendant to find sureties. 4 - T ON-GARDEN. Yesterday Sergeant King, of the N division, stated to Mr. COMBE that Lucy Stanley, who within the last six weeks was brought to this Court five tithes eltatged with having attempted to drown herself in the New liter, near Sadler's Wells Theatre, bad accomplished h e r o hje c t, It appears that yeatetilay MOH-ling about two o'clock the unfortunate girl, who was rather prepossessing, and about nineteen years of age, was observed in con versation with a young woman named Bonner, atija , - cent to Camden.bridge, Islington, when she parted with her, saying she would never see her mote. She im mediately proceeded to the bridge, from which she pre= cipitated herself into the river. An alarm was innaedi= ately made, when police-constable Saunders, N division, procured drags, and in the course of ten minutes she was taken out of the water, apparently lifelest, and carried to the station-house, where Di% Beinple, it Islington, attended, and adopted every remedy to restore animation, but to no purpose. She Was quite dead, It may be recollected that about tti Week ago the de ceased was brought to this Court, and thai-ged before Mr. Binghtun, the Mugistrate, With baVirVg thtoWn self into the li - ew River nt the same spot where she was taken, out of the water by Saunders. Her mother a respectable woman, residing in the New Cut, Lam beth, attended on that occasion much affeeted, and; represented the deceased as having been extremely fond of reading, and, being of a romantic turn of mind, she would frequently leave het home, \there she could have lived etthifortably, and wander about, and she had been seduced by a scoundrel who deserted her. She subsequently became acquainted with a pug than who promised her marriage, Mit he having seen her in company of Another young man ; in a fit of jealousy stabbed himself in her presence: The deceased on each occasion was discharged and re stored to her Mends, but she would never assign any cause for attempting her life. Her body now lies for a coroner's inquest in the vaults of Islington clOlO, . _ • HIGH COUitrr OF 4USTIcrAttY) AusoiS:= pair .31 - q3arnet, or Davidson, was placed at the hll7, accused of wilful fire-raising, ipaSmueb Vin the 17th of April, 1841, she set to the premises in North St. Andrew-etteet, in which she was carryiiig on • business as a milliner. The Was k'sl; Wally brought home to the oisimid by elicumstantial evidence alone, of whieh the following are the leading features She had been occupying the premise h Atiti Andl'ettv:. street, onth s e o b l e i f s o is r t e in t g he of ft a rz r 7ots m i rt elOset; foi.Some months p4,ecr. When .she deft b 0 shop on Friday eVenlng, the -18th JO i fhb, vith the assistance of a Mrs; WAltliir, whom she had en gaged for the pitiTose, removed every thing into the closet, and when they left the premises that p l ight about eleven o'clock, the furniture nets plthid in certain order. Under iand OM* •thb window was placed a sofa, which wes eotered with a number of bonnets ; there was a :able in the middle 'of the teem covered with a table-cloth, and the Chaiit placed all around. Next morning, "bolt five o'clock, fire was discovered in the premises, and when the closet was bp . - tered., the arrangement of the furniture wsts VotnfeAelY altered. The sofa was not under tb Window, but at the other end of the room ttllOgether, and, instead . of ir, there was under the window a mattress, plated tiilbii chairs. The bonnets were no longer On the sofa, nor under the window, trot` *ere any traces of them to be found. There was now no cover on the table, and the chairs were placed, not round the room, but partly on the sofa, and partly on the mattress. There was also beside the window a chest with coals, which the wit ness Walker had not observed when she left the room with the prisoner the night before. These circum stances proved that there must have been some party in the premises between the time when they were left by the prisoner and Mrs. 'Walker, the night before, and the time when the fire was discovered next morning. That the fire was also wilfully raised—that it was not the result of accident, was clearly proved by the fact that, when the firemen entered the room, it was on fire in three different places - , without any connexion between them. Th at i t must have been any prisoner who had altered the arrangement of the furniture, and set fire to the premises in these different places, appeared from the facts that the keys, even on her own showing, were in her.possession the whole time— that when the policemen went to the house he found the door locked and had to force it open, so that no person could have entered by it—and that when the closet was entered, the window strutters were shut, so that no pe - son could have entered by the window. Besides these facts, it appeared that tile prisoner a few days be fore had insured her property with the Scottish In surance Company to the amount of 100/., and that after the fire took place she had sent in a claim on the Corn- t pany for 91L, while the evidence of the appraiser went to show that the whole value of the furniture and goods in her premises was somewhere about 26L The object of the prisoner thus appeared to be to get hold of the insu rance money. She is married, and has three children. The Jury, after a short consultation, returned a una nimous verdict, finding the prisoner Guilty upon the circumstantial evidence adduced, and Lord Mackenzie sentenced her to be transported for life. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. THE GOODWOOD CUP. THURSDAY'S RACES CONCLUDED. The fluctuations in the betting were extraordinary. Charles the Twelfth, The Recorder, and Hyllus having successively reached 3 to 1 in the course of the day s ; and Charles receded-to 12 to 1, and The Recorder to Bto 1. The first prices were given in our last, and we have now only to add a few particulars of the running :—Nau tilus went off with the lead, followed by Bulwark, The Recorder, Pocahontas, and two or three others, all well laid up. In making the first turn Bulwark died away, but in other respects the race continued as before, round the Clump; Pocahontas then took the second place, but held it only for a few strides, and then re tired, Oakstick and Colwick being already in difficulty. The Recorder and Hyllus caught Nautilus at the rails, and at the distance he gave up, Charles the Twelfth join ing the other two immediately after. One of the most beautiful races ever seen ensued, Charles the Twelfth winning on the post by a head, and Hyllus beating The Recorder- by a neck. Nautilus was a bad fourth, and the other six were pulled up before they reached the chair. _ _ Duke of Richmond's Plate.—Benedetta and Folly took the lead to near the turn, where All-Fours passed them, followed by the mare and Melody colt, to the straight running ; Muleteer and Remnant waited on this lot to the Grand Stand, where the lather went in front, and won cleverly by a length.

Necker from Paris, an in surrection followed, during which the people, amounting to several thou san d s , c h oos i ng M. d e l a S a ll e for then commando-, adopted as their cockade the livery of the then popular Duke of Orleans ; its colours were red, whit?, and blue. StATJ OF TRADE. The cotton hosiery, in all its Varlotig brUnches, is ex tremely dull, which at this time of the year is truly alarming, From all the information - we can obtain, this manufacture i;Oille in a torpid state in every country in which it is carried on ; it is best in France. The Spa nish silk 7 stockingers make the best goods in Europe, but they are very slow ; they are utterly unable to compete with the English an French silk-stockingers, especially at Nismes, where very low-priced silk hosiery is made. - From a stockinger who has latterly travelled in the United States, we are enabled to obtain some informa tion as to the state of the hosiery manufactures in that Republic. There are between twenty and thirty coarse frames in Philadelphia. At George Town, about eight miles from that city, there is a large three-storied fac tory, which contains 80 coarse frames, from 18 to 24 guage, 'some of them are about 22 inches wide, these are the property of Messrs. Fisher, Burton, and Smith employ about 15 or 20 frames in . German Town ; the winA number is from 130 to 140. Stanley is endeavouring to keep a shop of silk-glove frames at wink, not with much success. The factory stockinTers receive their wages only once in three months,--eal workman has a reckoning book, signed by the foreman. Upon showing this book a stockinger can get credit at the storekeepers in the vicinity, who, at the end of three months, send ii . their bilis, and the wages are stopped by the foreman, who is allowed, it is believed, 10 per cent. by the storekeepers, who learn from him whether the stockinger is over-running his earnings, or is taking up more goods than his wages amount to. As a matter of course, the workman-is grievously overcharged. He found two frames at Wilmington, three at Newcastle on the Delaware, one at Mannihunk, two at Essenteken, and at New York four or five shops, containing from 40 to 50 frames. In Long Island he saw four frames, and was informed that Brookland andWilliamsburgh contained five frames each. He was unable to obtain employment at any of the places mentioned. After trevelling several hun dred miles in the Northern States, making the most diligent inquiries, he is decidedly of opinion that there are not more than 400 frames at work in the United States. In 1775 they were computed at about 250 frames. Our informant maintained himself by travel ling with hosiery and lace which he took with him from England ; and from his account coarse hosiery sells at double the price for which it may be obtained in Eng land. He saw some Germans selling Saxon-made marble-tie half hose, but they had great difficulty in dis posing of them, even by barter. English hose he could sell for ready money. The fancy bobbin net trade is yet extremely dull, nei ther is there that intense demand for plat nets which ex isted some months since. Yet we have heard of sonic new lever-frames being upon the stocks, notwithstanding which the frame and machine smith ti ado is in a de plorable state for the went of employment.
