Ana the " Morning Herald" of the 30th of the previous month, likewise re viewing the " Post °Mee London Directory for 1849," described it as "an authoritative Directory of the capital of Great Britain, laughing rivalry to scorn." The " Supplement" now published at the price of one shilling, contains the " Postal Directory," furnish ing all the regulations of the l'ost Office as affecting the receipt and dispatch of letters to the five thousand principal places throughout the world, copious Money Order information, Ere., &c., &c., and the " Parliamentary Directory," likewise contained in this "Supple ment," furnishes the usual information with reference to Peers and Members of the house of Commons.

T — II T O h l e lA w S retched criminal Sarah Harriet Thomas underwent the extreme sentence of the law at 10 o'clock this morning. The scaffold was erected over the great gates of the gaol. The scene throughout was a most painful one. Last night four female turn keys sat up w i t h t h e pr i soner, and b etween 12 and 1 o'clock this morning she partook of a mutton chop. She afterwards lay down for about an hour only, but the turnkeys are of opinion that she did not sleep. For breakfast she only had some tea, and refused to take any thing to eat. The chaplain arrived at 7 o'clock, and she seemed more attentive than before to her religious duties. Half an hour previous to the execution the governor of the gaol, Mr. Gardiner, announced to her the pain ful duty which he had to perform, and said he hoped she would accompany him to the place of execution quietly. She stamped with her foot several times, and said she would not go. She seemed almost frantic, and ' at the time appointed Mr. Gardiner was compelled to procure the assistance of six or seven men, who led her into the press-yard. She resisted all the time. In the press-room, at the suggestion of Dr. Sweet, the chap lain, she asked the governor to give her love to her father. After having been pinioned she walked without assistance as far as the drop, but afterwards she was obliged to be led up the ladder by two of the turnkeys. She struggled violently and shrieked in a dreadful man• Bier. When Calcraft, the executioner, put the rope round her neck she exclaimed, " The Lord have mercy upon me! I hope my mother and none of my family are pre- , sent." Immediately afterwards the,boltwas withdrawn and she was launched into eternity. The following is her confession of the circamstances of the murder, signed by her own hand:— " Two days before the murder was committed Miss Jefferies called me up to her bedroom and attempted to strike me. She also locked me in the kitchen during the whole of the night. At five o'clock in the morning she unbolted the door and told me to make a fire in her room. I thought then to have struck her, but did not do so. On the following night I slept in her room, but did not contemplatemur m de o r r i n n i g ng, her whent ill l g between up, went eenfivea ndsix o'clock in :thedow n s lu t a i r s s j , e a ff n e d r i r e e s t u w r a n s e d a o w e e i p t times. Between the second and third blow she made h e Et , h ead wh i lsth ee Ih a struck stone' be w r i o th n the some sort of a noise, and the last words I heard her say were Christ God!' I then dressed myself, robbed the house, flung tho dog down the privy, locked up the house, and went home. I committed the murder and robbed the house with my own hands, and no ono else had anything whatever to do with it ; neither did I mention having done so to any person. I regret exceedingly having committed so horrid a crime, and I pray to the Almighty God for forgive ness. I never should have committed so dreadful a crime had Miss Jefferies' conduct been less provoking. After Miss Jefferies bad died I remained in the room for more than an hour. I then went home, and did not return till about nine o'clock in the evening, when I went for two boxes, but did not go into mistress's room. On leaving the house I saw a strange man standing opposite, who carried my boxes as far as the infirmary, for which I gave him ninepence. I then took a fly and went home." Had it not been for the arrangements made by the authorities it is probable that fearful accidents would have happened amongst the crowd of spectators. Strong barriers were placed in front of the gaol, and at each side, so as to prevent the people from being driven towards the river. The services of a strong body of police were also called into requisition. The conduct of the crowd was similar to what generally takes place at public executions; some of the parties present were smoking, whilst others were laughing and jeering, until the clock strack the fatal hour, a so lemn silence then prevailed, and every eye was anxiously directed towards the spot whence the unfortunate crea ture was to emerge; so strenuous had been the exertions made by the inhabitants of the city to get the life of the convict spared that many persons imagined that a re prieve would be rem ivcd. One petition was signed by 3,500 women of Bristol, and sent to Sir G. Grey with the accompanying letter:— . " Bristol, April 15. " lion. Sir,--We pray you to look favourably upon, and to present to her Most Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria, the memorial of the women of Bristol this day forwarded to you. The near approach of an event so fearful in itself, and so dire in its influence, has spread a gloom over the minds of all the inhabitants of our city; particularly over the minds of women-3,500 of whose signatures are affixed to the memorial, including many of the most influential and enlightened ladies in the neighbourhood. We earnestly h wpo that her Majesty will graciously receive the petition of her loving sub jests, and ext(nd her Royal mercy to Sarah Harriet ThoinaF. We shall anticipate, lion. Sir, with great anxiety your reply, and in the sincere hope that it will be a favourable one, "I am, Right Hon. Sir, "(On behalf of the Committee,) "ErimA S. MATTHEWS. "To the Right Hon. Sir George Grey, Bart." The following reply was on Wednesday morning re ceived : "Whitehall, Apiil 17: " Madam,—Sir George Grey having carefully con sidered the memorial which you transmitted from the Women of Bristol,' in behalf of Sarah Harriet Thomas, a convict in the gaol at Bristol, under sentence of death fur murder, I am directed to express to you his regret that after a correspondence wish the Learned Judge who tried the case, the result of a very anxious inquiry r.nd deliberations, that Sir George Grey has come to the con clusion that he cannot, without a violation of his duty, interfere with the due course of law. " I am, Madam, your obedient servant, " IL WADDINGTON. " Miss Emma S. Matthews." A reply couched in similar language has been re ceived by the Earl Fitzhardinge, to whom was entrusted a petition from the Society of Friends, praying for a commutation of the convict's sentence. Similar replies have also bean received in answer to several other peti tions got up by the various dissenting and other religious congregations in Bristol. [PRICE SD• called his attention to the cheque and the pocket-book, oh.erving, My object is to find the cheque, i❑ order that it may be restored to your family, there be ing no doubt that it is their property.' The prisoner s aid, He knew nothing about it ; he did not r ec oll e ct having seen it; he was quite sure he couli give no information about it.' Mr. Pinson said, Well, we must look over your papers in the morning, and see if it can be found, be cause I want it for your family. I assure you, Mr. Sci3tt, of Aylsham (solicitor to the family), is the pers'in applying.' No information could be obtained fr Rush that night. On the following morn• ing Mr. Pinson again inquired of him about the cheque, fearing that it might have been lost in court. Ile still said that he knew nothing about it, but from the manner of his answer the governor suspected that he did know something about it; but after several days had passed over and no information was elicited, he supposed that the prisoner had destroyed it. On Thursday, tho 11th inst., Mr. D urran t, th e so li c ito r , vi s it e d R us h in regard to some family business, and Mr. Pinson was present in the room with him. After some conversation about the cheque, the prisoner turned round to Mr. Pin son and said, cannot deceive you any longer; but I must tell you what my suspicions were. I suspected when you were snaking inquiries about the cheque, you said one word for my family, and two for Mr. John Cann; as I thought if you could find the cheque you would give it to him.' Mr. Pinson expressed his surprise, saying, I don't know why you suspected me of that; as I told you then that my object was, if I could find the cheque, to restore it to your family. It is very true I have seen Mr. Cann since your conviction, and he assured me he was only anxious it should be found in order to be given into proper hands, as it belonged to your family, and to nobody else.' The prisoner then said, Will you suffer me to give it to Mr. Durrant? I will tell you the truth and produce it.' Mr. Pinson assented, and the prisoner then took up his hat, and he drew out the cheque from underneath the inside lining of the side of the hat. He had contrived to abstract it from the pocket book, when at his request it was handed to him for examination on the first day of the trial, and to conceal it in his hat un observed." On being informed that the universal opinion through out the country was that ho was guilty, he appeared angry. lie wrote a letter, asserting his innocence, which he wished to be signed by his daughter, and sent to the editor of the Times ; but Mr. Pinson declined for warding it. In two years, ho asserts, the real murderer will be known. He is watched by ten turnkeys, who reEevo each other every two hours, and every precaution is taken to pre vent anything taking place to rob justice of its victim. HULL. We have been somewhat curious to read the account of the doings of the Hull Corporation on the visit of his Royal Highness Prince Albert to the neighbourhood of that important borough, and the more so as we have understood that the remarks published by us some days ago had, in some measure, given as impetus to the otherwise lethargic temperament of those intelligent rulers over the destinies of Kingston•upon-Hull. The press of the town, much to their credit, con demned the apathy of the " Hull Corporation with re• gard to the opportunity afforded them of manifesting their loyalty." Somewhat late in the day those gentle men, or rather a portion, have tried to atone for the past. A requisition was presented to the Mayor, signed by twenty-four members of the corporation. The Mayor then called the council together, which met in the room of the property committee last Monday, when the follow ing members of the council were present:—The Mayor, Me.sre. Bannister, Hendry, Huntley, Holmes, Cobb, Spratt, Jacobs, Thompson, Melam, Savage, Horner, Mitchell, Newton, Goodwill, Abbey, Richardson, Jack son, Bean, Larard, Boulter, Atkinson, Smithson, Foster, Ft,untain, Tall, Armstrong, Forrester, Jubb, Casson, Wilkinson, and Priest. During the meeting, as we gather from the reports, it was said that a strong feeling pervaded the town that the corporation had not manifested the zeal which might have been expected from it in displaying the loyalty of the people of Hull. In relation to the objections which we have heard repeatedly urged against any expression of loyalty by the town of Hull, that Prince Albert's visit was to another county, and fur the purpose of laying the foundation of a rival port, Mr. Alderman Bean very properly observed "Is not the Quer n of England as much Queen of Lincoln,hire as Yorkshire, and surely the Prince could entertain no feeling of rivalry between Grimsby and Hull." A loyal address was movtd by l)r. Horner, and seconded by Mr. Jackson, who was exceed ingly sorry the council had not begun to move in the aff.Lir sooner. Dr. Ay re thought it a pity that any re flection shou!d be cast upon the corporation for seeming backward in attesting its loyalty. Mr. Jackson said that there was no doubt there had been both indifference and neglect. 1)r. Ape apprehended they were 5 ufli ciently early, and lipped the reporters would be requested not to report a contrary feeling to this measure. Mr. Alderman Jones thought they were certainly late, but they were better lee that never. The Mayor said there was so little time that be suggested the employment of the telegraph. Mr. Richardson stated that there was a general complaint out of doors against the corporation, an 1 for his part he really did think the Mayor should have moved in the matter hi fore. Mr. John Fester, Belgian consul, gave his peculiar uifferiogs in opposition to the rest of the gentlemen. Mr. Alder mar. Bean, howerer, reminded him of a statement he (Mr. F.) had made, "he would cross the Humber if the Duke of Wellington was coming," which was very strange, as Mr. Foster is a member of the Peace Society. On the motion being put, there was only one dissentient —was it not Mr. Foster, to whom Dr. Horner applitd the line of Swift— "Some for renown are singular and odd." On Tuesday the Mayor announced a telegraph communication from his Royal Highness Prince Albert, to the effect that his Royal Highness would receive the address at Brockelsby in the morning. The address was then read over and agrocd to, and measures adopted for conveying the mayor, twenty-one of the corporation. the town-clerk, and the two beadles. Omnibuses. drawn each by six horses, were in readiness at the New Holland ferry on. Wednesday morning, and arrived with the re quisite portion of the Hull corporate body at Brochlisby at ten o'clock, when, after waiting an hour and a halt, the deputation had permission to present the address, and we learn was well received. How the expenses of the deputation will be defrayed we know not, but the ways and means appear to have been a very formid able consideration at the mewing of the corporation on Tuesday, and it is reported by the Hull Packet, on the town el, rk informing the meeting that each indivi dual would have to pay his own expenses, as it could not be paid out of the corporation tends, " several of the members present, who had previously intimated their in tention of going, renounced it by walking off, disap pointed, no doubt, at not being able to have a few days pleasure at the expense of other people." Although this matter has been conducted with light ning speed, secrecy, sad much unwillingness on the part of many of the H u ll C or p orat i on, we are glad that some thing has been done to show that some feeling of loyalty still exists in the bo rough of Kingston-upon-Hull. If due diligence had been exerted by the authorities, the Prince would, in all probability, have visited Hull, the docks, and shipping, all of which are, doubtless, worth viewing. It has always appeared to us, that the most proper course to have been adopted, would have been for the Mayor to have called Vlgether, and publicly consulted, the members of the council, and for them, if they thought fit, to have had a public meeting of the inhabi tants to take the visit of the Prince into consideration. As the affair has been conducted, it smacks much of the old close corporate system. i3ERKS.

He has succeeded in catching the public taste, and catering for it well. In the performances selected for representation there is that liveliness, variety, and attraction, which is just the antidote to ennui, and the most agreeable evening's relaxation which we know of. In the operatic entertainments the manager has evidently borne in mind the now settled axiom that " Progress is the order of the day." Accordingly there have been produced a series of well-selected pieces, the principal characters of which are admirably sustained, and which have boon put on the stage with a good eye to dramatic effect, and with excellent musical and scenic accessories. The engagement of Miss Re becca Isaacs has proved highly successful. With a most agreeable and well.cultivated voice, she combines no ordinary degree of ability as an actress. Her songs are nightly encored, and her admirable execution of those gems of our national poets, "The Minstrel Boy" and "Kate Kearney," is sure to evoke repetition by the most enthusiastic applause. Of what is generally spoken of as the stock company, we must speak in terms of high praise. It is one of the "features" of this theatre that every actor is, to use the stage phrase, " well up" in his part.—Freeman's Journal. THE NEW SOCIETY Or PAINTERS IN WATER.

NORWICII, FRIDAY EVENING,—The guilty man who is to meet his fate to-morrow continues to eat and sleep well, and to enjoy life to the last. The accounts that have appeared from time to time as to his depression of spirits are entirely without foundation. Ho exhibits no sign of repentance, nor any desire to purge his breast of the tremendous crime which must he preying on it. Those who have the best opportunities of judging are strongly of opinion that he will die without confession. He perseveres in the most solemn declarations of his in nocence, and upbraids Emily Sandford most bitterly, as serting that she forswore herself at the trial, and that had it not been for her evidence he should hare been acquitted. Yesterday he asked the turnkeys if they had began to fix the machine; but no answer was made. He then expressed a hope that it might be a fine day. The Rev. Mr. Brown, chaplain to the gaol, the Rev. Mr. Andrews, and the Rev. Mr. Blake, of Fel mingham, have all been most assiduous in their efforts to bring the unhappy criminal to a duo sense of the awful position in which he stands. But these efforts have been attended with very little apparent success, and, to use the strong but no doubt accurate language of a gentle man to whom I applied for information on the subject, Rush has exhibited sincerity in nothing except in the practice of deception. The expression appears to be a contradiction, but it is difficult to analyse the workings of a murderer's mind, and the same idiosyncracy of cha racter which led Rush to purloin so dexterously the 40/. cheque from the note-book in a crowded court, with all eyes upon him, may account for his realising the old aphorism, that a man who begins by deceiving others often ends by deceiving himself. Last night, as pre viously, he slept very soundly. The account which has appeared as to his interview with his children is very incorrect, as will be seen by the following extract from the Norfolk Chronicle:— " On Monday last Rush had an interview with his children at the Castle, the younger ones coming to take their last sad leave of him. Mr. Soames, their uncle, did not accompany the family, as had been stated; nor did the Governor of the Castle introduce them into the cell; nor did the prisoner offer up any prayers, either during or after the visit. Other particulars given are sheer invention. The family came from Potash and Felmingham on Monday morning; and the two parties met at the Bell Inn, Orford-hill, whence they proceeded to the Castle. The interview did not take place in the cell, but in a room appropriated fur the use of those vi sitors who may wish, and are permitted, to see any crimi nal; in Rush's case this permission has not been given ex cept to his nearest relations, and the members of his own fa mily. When the latter arrived on Monday, he was informed of their being in the Castle; he buried his face in his hands as if he was much affected. Being taken into the visitors' room, and placed in such a position that the Governor could hear and see everything that passed, his children were immediately ushered into the apart ment, and, as may be supposed, a natural outburst of feeling ensued; but on this occasion, though the wretched man protested that he was innocent, ho was not guilty of the religious hypocrisy described. Ile did not offer up any prayers, nor recommend his children to the protecting care of the Almighty, as stated. After an interview of half an hour parent and children parted, some of them not to meet again in this world. When the family left the Castle a crowd of people collected outside the gates to witness their departure. They re paired to the Bell, whero Miss Rush remained; the other daughters, after partaking of refreshment, rlteh turning to Felmingham, where they areresi their governess in a house which Rush built thereinabi'out four years ago. Mr. James Rush and his younger brother returned to Potash; but the former returned to Norwich on Tuesday, and, accompanied by Miss Rush, had another interview with his father the same evening. This interview was repeat ed on Wednesday." We also annex the true particulars as to the lost cheque, which have been misrepresented: — In t h e pocket-book of the prisoner, exhibited i n .4 court, t h er e wss a cheque for 401 . On the night after te t h e c onviction information was given to Mr. Pinson, the g overnor overnor of the Castle, that this cheque was missing ; and he questioned the prisoner, in order to ascertain, on the part of the family, whether he had got it.

The suppression of Derby sweeps, from which large sums were deri ve d i n a id o f t h e fund, led many to b elieve that it w ou ld b e i mpossible to maintain the munificent bonus added t o t h e M etropolitan Handicap, and that the meotiug in consequence would suffer. So far from this, the promoters of the race worked with redoubled energy, and with such unlooked-for success, that not only was the 500 2 forth com i ng at the proper time, but a consider able balance was lett over for next year's handicap. Con sidering the difficulties they had to contend against, this result is highly creditable to the "Licensed Vic tellers of the Metropolis," and, mortifying as the disappointment :yesterday must have proved, we have no doubt it will stimulate them to per petuate a race which they may fairly call their own. That the contribution of so rich a purse, exceeding by i 2001. the highest amount given to any other stake, was appreciated, was proved by the acceptance, which was large in proportion to the nominations, and included most of the crack horses of the day, amongst them Surplice, winner of both Derby and Leger; Cossack, a i Derby winner; Canezou, Flatcatcher, and many others 1 of high repute. Speculation has been carried on to a greater extent than on any previous handicap at Epsom, Canezeu, Flatcatcher, Ferehill, and several others being backed to win great stakes. So far, then, as money, capital entries, and heavy betting, seconded by liberal .and experienced management, were calculated to insure sue ' cess, nothing was wanting; at Epsom, however, as at Bath, the elements were most unpropitious; the snow fell heavily on Tuesday, Wednesday, and 'Thursday, and on the last-mentioned day it lay so deep on the i course, that it became very doubtful if the race could be run without imminent peril to the horses and their riders. This was represented to Sir Gilbert Heathcote, at whose request Mr. Dorling proceeded to town to con sult the other stewards as to the propriety of postpon ing them until Saturday. It was determined, however, to take the chance of a change in the weather, and not to give any decision on the subject until the next day. The day broke favourably; indeed, so fine was it, that long odds were betted in town that the meeting would come off, and thousands proceeded by rail or by road only ,to discover, on their reaching the Downs, 'that racing was out of the question. So obvious was this, that Sir Gilbert Heathcote and Sir Joseph Hawley, the only stewards present, after a short consultation, decided on a postponement until Saturday (this day), to commence at half-past one o'clock. An official no tice to this effect was posted shortly after one o'clock, and the crowd collected in or about the stand reluc tantly wended their way back. Mr. Dorling, we understand, has employed 200 or 300 men to sweep the snow off the course ; there is every prospect, therefore, of the meeting taking place to-day. Should another fall of snow prevent it, the stakes and the bets on them will be void, the laws of racing limiting the power of stewards to postponement from day to day in the same week. With regard to the great race, the only transactions were at 5 to I against Flatcatcher ' 12 to 1 against Cla rissa, and 100 t o 6 aga i nst Mogador. Speculation ran chiefly on the question, "to run or not to run." Having in our paper of Thursday given the engage ments and order of running, it is only requisite now to give the names of the probable starters for the Metropo litan Handicap and their jockeys, as they appear in Mr. Dorling's card:— Old. s.

JUSTITIA. TO THE EDITOR OF 7'HE SUN. SlR,—Will you permit me to draw your attention to an error which has repeatedly appeared in your impres. silt), namely, the quotation in the Exchange List of " Spanish new deferred Bonds," at 7 or at 8 per cent., instead of " Venezuela deferred," in which business was transacted at these rates. There is scarcely a bargain made of late in London in the " Spanish deferred," which, on lst May next, will be totally extinct, by a last conversion into Active Stock, and, consequently, are of the same value as the latter Stock at present, less the overdue coupons attrched to the old Bonds. You wilt oblige by giving insertion to these few lines, as our cause is unfortunate enough as it stands, without its being injured by similar accidental errors. I am, Sir, Your most obedi en t servan t , A S 2 I' , A I N B4 I 9 S . I I BONDHOLDER. Manchester, April 0 ST. JAMES'S THEATRE. Auber's Fra _Thar()lo was pr o d uce d h ere l ast n i g h t , with a completeness highly creditable to the establish ment, considering the modesty of its pretensions. Full effect was given to all the charming music of the opera, so strewed with gay and beautiful airs, and tinctured with picturesque and national colouring. A new tenor (described as first tenor of the Grand Opera, Paris), a M. Octave, made his first appearance here in the cha• racter of the Brigand Chief. He has a tenor voice, not naturally of good quality, somewhat harsh when strained, but pleasing enough in level singing. It has, however, been well trained, and his style of singing is good. He sang the music of the part efficiently and pleasingly, and in the " Agnes, la jouvencelle," was encored. As an actor M. Octave wants the ease and animation so characteristic of the French stage, but he has a good figure and im pressive countenance. Mdlle. Charton imparted a charming sprightliness to the character of Zerlina. At each new hearing this artist develops some new gra(a zs a vocalist, and as an actress she avoids that affectation of mannerism which some of her countrywomen bQ ieTO to be necessary attractions for an English audience. Her singing of the " lliavolo, Diavolo," in the first act, was an evidence of admirable taste; and in the " Quel bon heur I je respire," all the richness and soft mellowness of her voice came out delightfully. She was also very happy in the air " Oui, c'est demain," with the accompanying action.
