There is really no consideration for unfortunate editors. Parties who will not take the trouble to look them selves to ascertain whether they are right or wrong in their opinions, unhesitatingly write to " The Editor, declaring his statement to be all wrong, and requiring explanations to account for the supposed error, when the slightest investigation would show that no error had been committed. A correspondent now writes to us to say " that there is not a single word about mar riage in the Act 9 Geo. IV., c. 31, as stated by us in a recent article, and wishing to know what Act we refer to." We beg to repeat that we were perfectly correct in our reference. The 22d section of the Act which we cited contains the enactments respecting bigamy, in the very words which we quoted. We really must request that our correspondents will be certain that an error has been committed before they volunteer to correct it, and intrude upon time already fully occupied.

Altogether the intelligence received from India by the last Overland Mail may be regarded as highly satisfactory. After the annihilation of the Seikh power by the splendid campaign, beginning with the ex ploits of EDWARDES and terminating with the victory of Goojerat, tranquillity appears to have followed as the inevitable consequence. Enhanced in the magni tude of its dominions by the acquisition of the spacious and fruitful country of the five rivers, the British Indian Government at Calcutta has found that acces sion of responsibilities insufficient to embarrass its policy or to interfere in any perceptible degree the vigour and promptitude of its ad ministration. The Punjaub is rapidly under going a complete re-organization ; and meanwhile the guilt of the heinous crime which inaugurated the last rebellion seems to be in a fair way of obtaining due expiation. Indeed the prolonged trial of MOOLRAJ, the ex-Nizam of Moultan, must be regarded as the most attractive, if not the most important, sub ject recorded in our dispatches from Hindostan. Upon all the charges on which that Asiatic Prince had been arraigned be has been formally pronounced guilty, after his share in the offences com mitted had been laboriously and elaborately scrutinized. For having aided and abetted the murderers of AariEw and ANDERSON—for having been an accessory before the fact, by instigat ing his troops to their attack and assassination—for having been an accessory after the fact by rewarding the murderers--MOOLBAJ has been condemned to death. Coupled, however, with the sentence is an assurance that a recommendation to mercy shall be forwarded to the Governor-General, on the ground that the criminal was the victim of circumstances. There is consequently every likelihood that the late Nizau will find himself subjected to the perpetual loss of liberty, whether by transportation or impri sonment, as a commutation from the loss of his ex istence. All things considered, we cannot but feel gratified that the magnificent successes obtained by the valour of the veteran Gonna will not, in this instance, have been rendered only the antece dents to a bloody vengeance upon an opponent who, while heroic in bravery, was induced to participate in the atrocities of Ameer CHUND, simply as the " victim of circumstances." As an additional evidence that the massacre of AGNEW and ANDERSON was the result of extravagant excitement rather than of an execrable premeditation, it was demonstrated in the course of the trial of MooLxA3 that the chieftain who struck the first blow at the political agent was a man habitually under the influence of drugs, and occa sionally liable to fits of insanity. Together with the information received as to the result of the arraignment of the ex-Nizard of Moul tan, we have obtained also some brief but suggestive hints as to the prospect of a thorough and rigorous re-organization of the British Indian army by Sir CHARLES NAPIER, the new Commander-in-Chief. That distinguished disciplinarian has already set in opeasOion his scheme for the improvement of the military service in Ilindostan, some of which im provements, it will be vividly remembered, were suggested by him to the Administration prior to his ap pointment as the successor of the Lord Viscount GOUGH. In his masterly letter to Sir Jouri Cam HODHOUSE, in his official capacity as President of the Board of Control, Sir CHARLES inveighed in emphatic terms upon the insufficiency of the arrangements generally made in regard to the Baggage Corps in an Indian campaign. As will be observed, this is no isolated evil in the estimation of the conqueror of Sinde— another of equal importance having strongly arrested his attention. We mean that upon the existence of which the Commander-in. Chief has repeatedly before this expressed his opinion—that opinion being that the British Indian army is miserably under-officered. In proof of the accuracy of this assertion, it is only necessary to point to the circum stances that in the regiments at Lahore in October, ' 1848, out of the 176 officers, exclusive of staff, who were then receiving pay, no less than 65 were absent from duty ; and that at Moultan at th e same period, out of the 154 officers, exclu s i ve of s taff , receiving pay, 62 were in like manner absent—be ing a propor tion of 30 per cent. of absentees out of merely fifteen Before Sir CHARLES ad ven t ures upon reg iments, say innovation, he certainly demonstrates its necessity beyond all denial ; nor can the most fanatical aspirant for the wholesale reduction of our armies gainsay the reasonableness of requiring the due number of efficient officers on service, propor tioned to the number of regiments still maintained. A continuance of the present system is, if you like, a shameful squandering away of the public moneys. .Here, in truth, is field for improvement, and such a field as will not long remain unoccupied while the ex- Governor of Sinde has the supreme direction of the j army in Hindostan. Among the remarkable rumours current at Cal- ,c ? 04 ,07,......,4., ~, A ... '•;,. --i - :• , :t*-..... ... \. • 4,,,, E. ,-,., • —14,0- '•• -ORO T' , • " THE SUN, cutta at the period of the starting of the last Overland Mail for England, we may particularise that of the probable appointment of Sir WILLIAM YARDLEY, the Puisne Judge, as Chief Justice at Madras, in the room of Sir EDWARD GAMBIER, although many anticipate the possibility of his ultimately succeed ing Sir ERSKINE PERRY as Chief Justice of Bombay.' Another report of not less interest is to the effect that the chief command of the forces at Bombay will, in consequence of the resignation of Sir WILLOUGHBY COTTON, be proffered in the first instance to Sir WIL LIAM Gomm, and in the event of that offer being refused, several are disposed to anticipate the elevation of Sir WALTER RALEIGH GILBERT to the appointment. A more brilliant officer could not by any possibility be selected for the occasion, and we are bold to assert that there is not one single individual who would have the temerity to deny that Sir WALTER GIL BERT has nobly merited such a reward by his evi dences of generalship and by his many daring achievements. When our Gracious QUEEN'S intention to visit her Irish subjects was officially communicated to the Chief Magistrate of the city of Dublin we hailed the an nouncement with the most joyous anticipations; we then foreshadowed the right loyal and glorious recep tion which awaited her from that gallant and Swarm hearted people. Triumphantly have our anticipations been fulfilled—never was more heartfelt homage paid to: monarch, never was loyalty and affection more warmly manifested than in the enthusiastic welcome which greeted her MAJESTY on touching the hospitable shores of Ireland; and we felt assured her MAJESTY'S Irish welcome will be long treasured amid her happiest recollections. We looked upon her MAJESTY'S visit to Ireland as calculated to be of the greatest moral, social, and political importance ; we believe the advantages are already beginning to be felt by the right thinking of both islands. The people of England will see the absurdity of those slanderers who would brand their Irish fellow-subjects as rebels ; while the people of Ireland will no longer think that they are looked upon as " aliens in language, in religion, and in blood," but will feel themselves children of the same imperial family, under the protection of British lof a kind-hearted aw, anidereaalrtsehdarearnsdinaffthecetiionntaetreesmt aonndarcahf: f Deeply must our Gracious QUEEN have been affected —how truly happy must have been her sensations to feel that she, amid the crumbled and crumbling dy nasties of Europe, reigned triumphantly in the hearts of her good people of Ireland. How sublime and glorious the spectacle to see the Queen of a free people receive the homage of hearts purified by sorrow and suffering. What a lesson to the despots of Europe. Oh ! if , they could but see that chivalrous nation laying at the feet of England's QUEEN the pure offering of a devoted and unconditional loyalty, perhaps these despots would then understand that the most impregnable ramparts by which their thrones could be surrounded would be " The hearts and hands of freeborn men." The visit of her MAJESTY to Ireland has been marked with a significance beyond the mere interchange of kindly feeling between the SOVEREIGN and her sub - jects. She has taught the bigots of Ireland a lessoh which, we trust, will not be lost upon them ; she has most pointedly indicated how that country is to he governed in future—she has nobly rebuked the bigots who would still attempt to govern Ireland through "a paltry faction"—she has sounded the death-knell of a vile ascendancy, to which for cen turies might be traced all the miseries of Ireland. Sectarianism has long been the curse of that ill-fated land, vain was every attempt to improve the condition of that suffering people, while the monster of religious discord was encouraged and fostered, and with pain are we obliged to express regret that the odious principle of " Divide et Impera" was not, before this happy visit of her MAJESTY, sufficiently discouraged ; but the bigots themselves have effected their own destruction, they made an attempt to delude the QUEEN into an act of narrow partizanship, by asking her MAJESTY to subscribe to an exclusive charity— vile and blasphemous misnomer—to unite erclusive ness with holy charity, charity that should be free as GOD'S own bounty I that should " fall like the gentle dews of Heaven" upon all GOD'S suffering children slaw I CirlOry to IricroatA for her noble response to this paltry and impertinent ap f plication. Her MAJESTY was asked to sub scribe to a charitable institution exclusively Pro testant, to which she replied—" Mr. ANsoN is com manded by her MAJESTY to state, that she will not subscribe to the funds of any charitable institution which is exclusively Protestant." Never was wiser resolution come to than that contained in Mr. Ax sox's short but significant communication. The charity itself may be most meritorious as far as it goes, and there may be nothing unnatural, or even uncom mon, wader ordinary circumstances, in a Protestant Queen subscribing to a Protestant charity ; but on her first visit to a portion of her dominions, where unfor tunately religious differences have produced the most ruinous and disastrous dissensions—in a land where the blood shed in the mad and wicked struggle of religious discord was yet scarcely dry —it was the duty of her MAnny to mark with her august condemnation any attempt to make her a party in sustaining those principles of exclusion and intolerance which have proved the bane of Ireland, and have been the unceasing cause of strife and blood for ages. We are gratified to perceive that this refusal of her MAJESTY was no transient ebullition of the mo ment, but the strong and marked indication of the principles upon which that country is in future to be governed. The principle is strongly enunciated and carried out in a letter which we subjoin, addressed by the Earl of CLA.RENDON to the Bishop of DOWN and CoNNoR, in transmitting a charitable donation to an institution in Belfast. "Viceregal Lodge, Aug. 25, 18411. I " My Lord,—l beg herewith to transmit a letter of credit on the Provincial Bank for 3001., and in the allo cation of this sum I am most anxious that her Majesty's name should not, even in the remotest manner, be mixed up with political or sectarian discussions; and that no interruption should take place of that harmony and goodwill which characterised all parties during the recent visit of the Queen, and which were so peculiarly gratify ing to her Majesty. I have accordingly to request that your Lordship will have the goodness to pay this sum to the Belfast General Hospital, which I have selected not only as an institution which confers vast benefit on suffering humanity, but as one which all classes in Bel fast unite in assisting; for I am informed that it received nearly the whole of the public and private collections made during her Majesty's visit to that city, proving thereby the universal estimation in which this charity is held by all classes aid creeds. " I have the honour to be, my Lord, " Your very faithful servant, " CLARENDON. " The Lord Bishop of Down and Connor." Lord CLARENDON deserves the thanks of every Christian and loyal subject for the wholesome prin ciples indicated by the spirit of this important letter. Let us hope its wisdom and propriety will make a deep impression upon those for whose benefit it was intended ; let us hope that the glorious example set by our QUEEN, and followed up by her able repre sentative, will be followed and re-echoed through the length and breadth of the land. We must hear no more of Orange processions or ribbon conspiracies. The public press must do its duty—let it preach reli gious toleration to all—let its columns overflow with lessons of peace and love. Let the good of all par ties unite in one glorious effort to raise their pros trate land. Let the bigots of all parties be boldly told that the old notions of exclusiveness are obsolete; that they are incompatible with the enlightened spirit of the age; and, above all, let them understand the enunciated by our illustrious glorious principles SovEREIGN, of equal laws without distinction of sect or creed. Her motto is— " Tros Tireusve nullo discrimino habetur." TiIEST to A the TuE memory OSl of the late Sir a W ILLIAMFL William Foll e ttO TT . monument has been removed from the studio of the artist, and i s now fixed in the position allotted to it in Westminster Abbey. The visitor will find this fine statue in the north transept, on turning to the right hand, between the effigies of Sir T. F. Buxton and Francis Horner. Fortunately it is placed in an exceedingly good light, and can be viewed from both the front and either side to the greatest advantage. The figure is a full length, representing Sir William in the act of speaking; the left hand resting upon a scroll which is supported by a pile of books placed upon a pedestal, and the right arm in an easy posture by the side. The attitude is calm and dig nified, and the costume is the forensic robe, but without the head gear. The likeness appears to be admirably preserved. This work of art, which we think will be generally pronounced not unworthy the august pile in which it is deposited, is front the chisel of Mr. Behues, the celebrated sculptor. LONDON, SATURDAY EVEN LNG-, SEPTEMBER 1, THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. I The Patrie has the following official " communica tion :"—" The announcement made by certain papers of the approaching convocation of the National Assembly is utterly void of foundation. The propo sition has not even been brought before the consi deration of the Permanent Commission." The members of the Permanent Commission met on Thursday. General CHANGARNIER attended and made a favourable report of the state of Paris. The Assembly will not meet until the Ist of October, before which period the Russian and Aus trian troops now at the Voralberg will have entered S witzerland, and have destroyed liberty there as they have already done in Hungary. This explains the reason of the excessive anxiety manifested by the PRE SIDENT and his Ministers for the absence of the As sembly during the month of September. The Assemblee Nationale announces that it is the intention of the Emperor of Russia to restore, by force of arms, the statu quo of Europe before the re volution of 1830, and that he will commence by cal ling on Switzerland to restore the old priestly and aristocratical government of her cantons. The grand banquet offered by the manufacturers to the PRESIDENT of the Republic took place at the Jardin d'Hiver on Thursday evening. Nearly 1,200 persons were present, the most eminent in commerce, science, the fine arts, the press, and literature. A fine thilitary band stationed in the shrubberies played during the banquet. The coup d'ceil was magnificent. The Ministers of Justice, of the Interior, Agriculture and Commerce, were present. In returning thanks for his health being proposed, the PRESIDENT of the Republic said,— " Gentlemen,—The true congress of peace was not in the Salle Cecille. It is here; it is you who compose it, you the elite of French industry. Elsewhere wishes only were expressed; here are represented all those great interests which peace alone can develop. W . hen has i o n n d e us tadmiredindustry which havel b h e a e v n e s p d r o e n a de outa l all b t h e foosree thepro d e l g y t e e s s of of all France—when it is remembered how many hands have co-operated in the production of these objects, and how many existences depend on their sale, one is con soled with the idea of having arrived at that period to which is reserved another glory besides that of arms. In fact, at this time, it is by the improvement of manu factures, by the conquest of commerce, that the straggle is to be carried on with the whole world, and in thi., struggle you have convinced me that you will not suc cumb. But do nut forget to instil into the minds of the workmen the sacred doctrines of political economy, by allotting to them a just part in the reward of labour; prove to them that the interest of the rich is not opposed to that of the poor. I thank you for the flattering manner with which you have appreciated my efforts for promoting the public good, and I propose as a toast, To the prosperity of French industry! To its honour. able representatives.' " An evening journal says :—_ " Several revolutionary Journals hare announced that General de Lamoriciere, our Ambassador Extraordinary at St. Petersburgh, was coldly received by the Emperor of Russia. A letter from the General, which is now be fore us, on the contrary, affirms that the most cordial reePption was given him ; that several splendid fetes were got up in his honour; and that he had dined several times by the side of the Emperor. The latter has also given him, as a souvenir, a rich medallion, containing his own portrait and that of the Empress. The Czar has also presented the General with a complete costume of a Circassian chief, worth 10,000 roubles; the arms in particular are quite remarkable as a chef d'oeuvre of Oriental workmanship." It was generally believed that the PRESIDENT of the Republic was on the point of contracting a matrimonial alliance with the daughter of the King Of SWEDEN. The Moniteur publishes a decree of the PRESI DENT of the Republic, opening a credit of 522,019 f. in the Department of Finance for the payment of the dividend on the Greek loan due on the Ist of Sep tember, 1849. Mr. COBDEN has left Paris for England, with several members of the committee of the Peace Congress.

GERMANY AND THE NORTHERN STATES. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. Letters from Vienna of the 26th ult. state, that a courier had arrived from the head-quarters of CZORICH with the intelligence of the surrender of Comorn, which had been entered by GOZULAI, the Minister of War, on the 25th. As, however, no official announcement of the intelligence has appeared in the Wiener Zeitung, we _are inclined to consider it as premature. The Wiener Zeitung of the 26th contains the fol lowing official report from the head-quarters of General HAYNAU : " The pursuit, which was undertaken• by the third army corps, the reserve, and Wallmoden's cavalry divi• sion, has been so completely successful, that at present the whole of Transylvania and the Banat, are free from the insurgents, with the exception of a few thousand men of the Polish legion, who are still roving about between Mehadia and Orshova. They will, however, speedily be dispersed. On the 19th 72 cannon, which Vecsey's corps could no longer get forward, fell into the bands of our troops in the valley of Thot Vorad, and 100 baggage waggons were also taken. After the greater part of this corps had dis persed, and Vecsey himself had fled, the remainder, con sisting of 7,000 men, 1,000 horses, 4,000 guns, and two cannon, surrendered tc the Russians on the 20th inst., near Boros Jeno. The insurgents, commanded by Bem and Guyon, were so unremittingly pursued, that.:two companies of lancers, belonging to the third army corps, reached Deva on the 18th, where the main body also arrived on the 19th instant. The advanced guard of the Russian corps, under General Luders, had already entered Deva on the 15th, but as Bem and Guyon's troops reached that place on the night of the 17th, the Russians retired. The insurgents begged General Luders to grant a truce of 24 hours, which he granted, at the same time summoning them to surrender at discretion. Hereupon a council of war waF, held. Bem, Guyon, and many officers wished to con tinue the struggle; but the troops refusing to consent to this, Bern and Guyon t ook advantage of the truce to escape unobserved. They are said to have taken the direction of Russberg. A conflict then took place be tween the men and officors in the insurgents' camp, the consequence of which west that the greater part of this corps, amounting to 8,000 men, surrendered to the Russians, who sent th eni, as well as their arms, and 50 cannons, to Hermannstadt. Twenty-four cannons, which had been left at .I).3va in the safe keeping of a Russian battalion, were ar e at once transferred to out third army corps. About I, 000 of the insurgents dispersed after the flight of their leaC t ers among the mountains on each side of the Maros, and the remainder, from 4,000 to 5,000 men, among whom li'ere the former Austrian cap tains, Hertelengi and Nedelaki, with the reserve squadron of the Palatinal Hussars, several hundred baggage wag gons, and many imperial ammunition waggons, were taken charge of by the 3d :army corps, and conducted by way of Facset to Temeavaz . The Hungarians left four 12-pounders and one 2-poix cider at Dobra, and a great quantity of iron and lead 'ammunition was found lying about in different places. !The Hungarian General, Des fewffy, with his suite, surre , ndered to Lieutenant Field- Marshal Wallmoden, but mety fled in disguise. Thus within the last few days al t Facset, Deva, Dobra, and Karansebes, not including Georgey's corps, 25,000 men with 175 cannons have been . taken. These successful re sults are mainly attributable to the remarkable persever ance of the imperial roy a",l troops under Lieut. Field • Marshal Prince Liechtenste in, who had the command of the pursuing troops, and to the energetic pursuit of the 3d army corps, under Liet it. Field-Marshal Remberg. General Liechtenstein mak es particular mention of Cap tain Medvey (Medway?), of the Archduke Charles Lighthouse, who showed great judgment as he took possession of the 72 cannow belonging to Vecsey's corps. Several chests have been fey and buried deep in the case ments of the fortress of Ar ad; they contain parts of the machinery of the steamers and railway engines which the insurgents carried oil! when they retreated from Pesth and Saolnok. The Id .nk-note press has also been found. The Marshal Prince of Warsaw has placed the chiefs of the rebels, the fors ier members of the Diet, all the prisoners, and the wholes of the military stores, pro visions, and ammunition, at, the disposal of the Austrian troops. Preparations on a g rent scale have been made fir taking charge of the pri .souers and military stores, and for transporting them tc Arad and Temesvar. Im mense supplies of all kinds 3 nave been found in the for tress of Arad, and the despi rate confusion and disorder in which the magazines are• prove how great must have been the panic, and how hai ried the flight of the insur gents." ✓ BEM and GUYON have arrived safely in Turkey, and will most probably proceed to England with KOSSUTH. The Casterreichische ( :'orrespondent contains the following passages from a letter of KOSSUTH : "It is not the cowardly love of life which has deter mined my departure, but tl e conviction that my pre sence is become harmful fo r the country. At present I am a simple citizen. I hay, 3 been to Lagos to see how things look there, and upo: 1 what force we could still count. I found the corps o f Gen. Vecs©y in good order; all the rest on the brink of dissolution. I found a total want of food supplies, whic k were only procured by re quisition, a miserable resoui •ce, which makes the whole people our enemy. The btu ik has been transported to Arad, and is therefore in Georgey's power. . . . If even the army of Georgey were to request me to re-un dertake the government, if you were successful in some operations, and could furnish the army with provisions without force; lastly, if the bank were able to function, and at my disposal, under these three conditions I would undertake the government of the country." Finally KossuTu recommends that a committee of representatives of the people should be formed, and that couriers should be sent to Comorn and Peter war dein, to encourage these fortresses to hold out. In a postscript he says " MM. Zamoiski and Biszoranorski suggest to me that it is incumbent on the honour of the Hungarians to so dispose the application of the Poli s h and Italian legions that, while they render important services to the country, they will, if the worst should bef a l, esca pe b e in g s e nt to Siberia. I feel this obligation, and at my request Gen. Guyon disposed them so as to cover the communication with Turkey through Orsowa; but I learn here that the General ordered the garrison of Orsowa to Tran sylvania. Thus these two battalions will also be lost, and Orsowa within a few days be in the hands of the enemy." The Landtag, or Diet of Lower Austria, according to report, is to be opened on the Ist of November. BAIIEN. The military murders at Radstadt still continue.

A letter from Rome of the 21st, says— " Relations of the most friendly and sympathetic kind are becoming more firmly established every day between the French and the Romans. This friendly disposition on the pert of the public mind in Rome has been more particularly remarked since the French authorities as sumed an almost threatening attitude in presence of the excesses of clerical reaction. It is right to add that, being now perfectly enlightened as to the kindness of a government of priests, for within the last few days they have seen its work, our officers are indignant at the idea that an int e lli gen t p o p u l a ti on c ould h ave b ee n sub jected to a regime so brutalising, and loudly express their opinion on the subject. So that if they have been at first pampered by those for whose benefit the expedi tion appears to have been undertaken, it is now the true Roman population who welcome them, and that it is good b point out. The relations between the French authorities and that established by the Pope are at this moment very cool, and it appears that the negotiations which are going on at Gaeta tend to take a turn which may defeat many calculations. The Pope will not make any concessions, but he will, it is said, go to Bologna, the garrison of which will be composed of Austrians, Neapolitans, and Spaniards. Besides, it is evident that, with his pretensions, Pius IX. cannot reside on any point whatever of the Roman states if he is not guarded by a strong garrison of foreign troops. That is a sorrowful condition for a Sovereign. Orders had been given to prepare everything for the return of part of the French army to France, but there has been a counter-order since given. There are a number of sick in the expeditionary army. Several hospitals have been established at Rome, which are already full. M. Edgar Ney, orderly officer of the President, has arrived on a private mission to General Oudinot. In the present state of things no one can say how long the French occupation of Rome will continue." The following is an extract from a letter from Venice, dated the tad:— - "At the moonlit lam writing the firing has ceased on both sides; the crisis is finished. The Republic o' Venice falls, as it has lived, free from excesses, free from violence, and without having held out the hand to anarchy ; it falls overpowered by superior forces, and under the weight of events which inevitably brought about its ruin. The men who have directed the defence are full of the best intentions ; they only wished to re establish the ancient independence of their country by shaking off the yoke of Austria. They never wished to make an appeal to those impious doctrines which, under pretence to restoring European society , have already caused seas of blood to flow in different parts of Europe. History will be just with regard to them, and will not confound them with the majority of those men who for the last eighteen months have been aiming at the overthrow of Italy and Germany. The Austrians will enter Venice to-morrow, or the day after; but what hatred will they there final What prudence must they nut display! What efforts must they not make to soften down the re-action which may declare itself as soon as their eagles deploy on the square of St. Mark. The army which has besieged Venice does not appear to be intended to occupy the city. Alarmed at the exaspera tion which prevails amongst them against the Venetian people, General Gorskowski has sent for fresh troops from Trieste, which have been for some time kept in rea diness to embark, and which troops alone will enter Venice. This is a politic measure." RADETSKY has issued a new proclamation at Mant ua, granting an amnesty for all political offences com mitted in 1848 and 1849. THE BERMONDSEY MURDER. EXAMINATION OF FREDERICK GEORGE MANNING, AT THE SOUTHWARK POLICE- COURT.—(TIIIS DAY.) It having been announced in the morning papers that Manning, the supposed murderer of Patrick O'Connor, had arrived, at ten o'clock last night, from Jersey, an immense mob of persons congregated about the police court, but extra policemen were put on duty to prevent their entrance. The prisoner arrived at the police-station at half-past ten, and on being asked his name, he said, in a firm voice, " Frederick George Manning, town traveller," and that he resided at No. 3, Minver-place, Bermondsey. After the charge was booked he under went a scrutinous search, and was afterwards placed in one of the cells with two constables. Mr. Seeker entered the court a little after ton o'clock, when the prisoner was brought from the rear of the court and placed in the felon's dock. He is a stoutish man, with a long, thick head, and sandy hair, with small whiskers. His chin is rather long, and he has a very stupid appearance. He seemed to feel his awful position, but made no allusion to the crime. Mr. Binns, the solicitor of Trinity-street, was retained by the prisoner, and was in attendance to watch the pro ceedings. As soon as he was placed in the dock Mr. Edwin, the chief clerk, asked who gave the prisoner in charge. Inspector Yates stepped forward, and replied that he charged the prisoner, Frederick George Manning, with the murder of Patrick O'Connor at No. 3, Minver-place, Bermondsey, on the 9th instant. His wife was also concerned in it. Mr. SECKER asked whether he knew that O'Connor was murdered. He replied that he saw the body and perceived several wounds in the head. He had also been shot, and he was confident that he had been murdered. Mr. SECKER asked whether ho knew that the prisoner and his wife resided there? Inspector Yates replied a witness was in attendance who could answer the question. William Massey, medical student, said that he knew the prisoner, Frederick George Manning, as he lodged in his house, No. 3, Minver-place, Bermondsey. Wit ness left him and his wife in the house on the 3d or 4th of August. He bad frequently seen O'Connor at the house, and he seemed on familiar terms with Manning and his wife. Inspector Yates was re-called and said ho was at the house on the 17th of August, when he found property belonging to the prisoner. Mr. SECKER said that as the prisoner's wife was re manded until Thursday next, he should not proceed any further with the examination. Ile inquired whether the prisoner wished to ask any questions? Mr. Binns said he should make no observation' at present. The prisoner was then remanded until Thursday next, and instantly conveyed to the gaol in the van. FORGERY ON THE BANK OF SIR BENJAMIN HEY WOOD.—Manchester is gaining some noteriety in the annals of crime. While the recent forgery on the Man chester and Liverpool district bank is fresh in the recol lection of our readers, another fraud of a serious character upon the much-respected firm of Sir B. Heywood and Co. has been discovered. The case is simply this :—A young man named Whitfield, residing in Liverpool, saw an advertisement for a clerk in the Liverpool Courier , answered it, and h a d an interview in consequence with Robinson, alias Mellor (the principal in the recent for geries here). At his request he came to Manchester, and after some conversation about the situation, he was de sired to go to Messrs. Heywood's bank and get cash for a cheque for 8251. 9s. The cheque purpo :led to b© signed by Mr. W. Burton (who had at thrs time an account with the bank), and was:drawn in favour of:Messrs. Owen and Marriott. The money was paid in 50L notes and specie, and it was not till after some time that the forgery was detected. Robinson is in custody, and will have to take his trial for the offence in all probability. The cheque is supposed to have been written by an accom plice named Macauley, who is also in the hands of the police. CORK AND PASSAGE RAILWAY. — The directors of the Cork, Blackrock and Passage Railway have entered into a cont ract w i t h M r . M oo re for the building of the Cork station-house at the eastern side of the Victoria road. Application has been made to the Lords of the Admiralty to prevent this company runningits line along the water's edge from Toureen to the Victoria Baths. ONE Y and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The s- - ilea .r Cotton at Liverpool yesterday werf. estimated ::.z tr9un 7,000 to 8,000 bales, with an impro , ,ii feeling in the market.—ln;Railway Shares there was but little business done, and prices had further declined. The Wink of England weekly return is not so much in favour of tie presump ion that business wants are occasioning an increased demand for cash, as there is an accumulation of deposits, and a reduction of dis counts , and circulation. It is known, however, that owing to the prevalence of cholera, &c., there has been a general disposition to retire into the country for a while, and, consequently, that trade except in one or two speculative articles has been very dull during the last fortnight. A comparison with the previous week's statement gives the following results:— Notes Issued Increase Rest ... 27,790,130 • 153,360 ... 3,289,552 ~, 19,917 ... 6,117,532 553,518 ▪ 9,536,827 ... 136,706 • 1,049,338 45,674 ...• 14,308,576 .., 25,699 .. 9,928,590 ... 8,663 ... 9,339,360 Increase . . ... 582,900 Bullion 14,759,853 Increase 178,057 Active Circulation 18,450,770 Decrease ... 429,540 The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon were rather higher on Paris, but a shade lower for bills at 90 days on Antwerp, Hamburgh, and Trieste.

The Swedish Government has declared the harbours I of the west coast of France, to the Spanish frontier in clusive, as being "suspected," and vessels arriving hence will be subjected to quarantine. An American engineer, Mr. Robinson, had obtained the exclusive right to construct an electric telegraph from Gothenburg to Stockholm. The following bond fide epistle, from a working man now in California, addressed to a gentleman in London, by whom he had been befriended, has been placed in the hands of the Editor of the Banker's Magazine, with per mission to publish it. We do this in the words of the writer, merely correcting his orthography where neces sary, because a communication of this kind conveys a more graphic description of what is really taking place at the " diggings " than probably any of the newspaper accounts hitherto published : "San Francisco, April 8, 1849. " Sir,—l beg the liberty of writing this letter to yon, informing you of my progress in life since I had the honour to be personally addressing you. • Having been successful in obtaining a passage from Southampton to New York, I there got into employment in an iron store, where I was rather unfortunate, having been laid up five weeks with a sore finger, occasioned by the piling of railroad iron. I then, when I found myself able to work, applied to a friend, whogot me a situation on board the Pacific steamer, which left New York on the Bth of December, and arrived at San Francisco on the Ist of April. On arriving at San Francisco we were informed of the wages of the port, which are for firemen 180 dollars per month; sailors, 100 to 150. Under these circumstances, the firemen:applied to me to speak to the captain for the wages of the port, which I did ac cordingly, and the said captain would not conde scend to augment it one cent., but drew his ship alongside of the Ohio man-of-war, saying he would have us ironed and shot if we would leave. I beg to say my wages was 30 dollars per month, as bead fireman ; the:others, 25 dollars. On that night several consulted with me about leaving, when I freely took the offer ; and when our watch came on I was called, and lowered a boat, and off to the shore, distance three miles. Next morning the captain, when he found us gone, gave it out that he would give the wages of the other steamers, but they would not rely on his word. The principal part of the crew deserted, stowed them selves with passengers, and disguised themselves, &c. When once a person will get ashore here, there is no one to take them aboard again. There are no peace officers here, and it is with difficulty they can get either Custom. house or Post-office authority at 150 dollars per month. Nothing is thought of gold here; 100 dollar blocks are nothing. I have been offered 8 dollars per day and board since I came ashore. The wages for labourers are from 6 to >i dollars a day; for carpenters, 15 to 18; tin-plate workers, 12 dollars per day; every man is paid well, and there is work for five times as many. My notions led me, since the first time I heard of the mines on my arrival in New York, to get to them, and search my fortune out. I shall explain to you, in my humble way, a little about the digging, and habits and ways of the people. There are four classes: of people here, and at the mines—Americans Chilians, English, and Caknackers, who belong to the different islands. Wages are high, provisions very dear, bread 25 cents. per pound; beef, 12 cents to 18; flannel shirts, from 3 to 6 dollars, red or blue; picks and shovels very high, 6 to 8 dollars; butter, 1 dollar to If per pound; and everything else according. It is sup posed there are 20,000 people at the different mines. I am bound for dry digging this afternoon. I expect to return in four months wish 3001. sterling. The place I am going to is Stanish Lea, in the valley of the Sanwa River. Some hundreds of the American aristocracy have come out on speculation—colonels, &c., &c. The people are very honest, nothing is stolen, only what cheating is done is by " gambling." There are several who will go and dig for three months, and come down and gamble every cent of it. There is not much demand for broad cloth, silks, or such, for the tasty Yorkers come soon in the same habits of the natives, rough clothes, &c. Men that you would give alms to, from their appearance, would have 70,000 dollars of dust or lumps about their person. It sells for 15 to 16 dollars per ounce, generally 16 dollars is the price of it. Not one meal is to be got in an hotel under 12 dollars. The miners all live in camps. Thera are several ships stopping here for the want of hands to take them back; all hands desert a ship when they arrive here, except they get the wages of the port. The bay of San Francisco is very fine; for the town, I can't describe it. There are four or five streets marked out, the houses here and there. There are some few houses rather tasty, which belong to the Americans. It is sup posed that the English and Americans will join, and drive the Chilians out of the mines, and plun,ler them. Others believe that the English and Americans will not lose time from the digging. Any friend that sends goods here, let them consist of boots, shoes, picks, shovels, flannel shirts, monkey-jackets, blankets; anything strong and coarse, will sell. It is supposed that 2,000 Americans will arrive here in two months." The accounts received to-day from the manufacturing districts are rather less encouraging than ou this day se'nnight. Messrs. M'Nair, Greeuhow, and Irving write from Manchester as follows : " Since the date of our last alternate excitement and repose may be said to have been the prominent features of the market. The transactions of the month, though not equalling those of July in extent, have, however, been again very extensive. Within the last few days the market has become very decidedly quieter, accom panied with a suspension of all operations admitting of delay. As regards the prices of certain descriptions of cloth and twist the tendency is perceptibly downwards." The exports of silver from London during the week ending Thursday last were 225,700 ounces, chiefly to France and Holland, and 480 ounces of gold bars went also to France. Tho Funds have rallied a little to-day, one or two money purchases having been made, and there has been a cessa tion of speculative sales.
