BEWLEY, FISHER, AND CO.'S CONCENTRATED ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER. —This Preparation contains, in a highly concentrated state, and without the addition of any more heating stimulant, all the car minative and restorative properties of this useful and grateful aro matic, separated from the ligneous fibre which constitutes the bulk of the root. As few stomachs are able to bear a sufficient quantity of the powder to produce the desired effect, BE %VLEY, FISHER, and CO. conceive this form of exhibition the most convenient, when taken in water, tea, beer, wine, &c. ; or for combination with other medicine, ten drops being equal to eight grains of the powder. It is recommended to persons of Phlegmatic, Gouty, Dyspeptic, and Ner yens habits. Its beneficial effects are quickly diffused throughout the whole system, relieving cramps, spasms, flatulency, pain, and sense of oppression after meals, and restoring the tone of the stomach. Its utility is also manifested as an adjunct to other medi cines, and in correcting the chill which soda and other aerated or mineral waters give the stomach, as well as in adding to their tonic property. In bottles at 2s. 6d. and 45., prepared only by BEWLEY, FISHER, and Co., Dame-street, Dublin, Chemists to the Queen and Princ e Albert, by Special Appointment. Also their Anodyne Lettuce Lozenges, for coughs, colds, asthma, and affections of the chest. Doctor Duncan, of Edinburgh, and other leading members of the profession, have strongly recommended Lactucarium (the inspis sated juice of the garden Lettuce) as possessing peculiarly soothing and quieting properties in the above complaints, and especially in the troublesome cough attendant on consumption. To increase its efficacy, Bewley, Fisher, and Co. have combined it with hippo and demulcents, and have adopted the form of a lozenge as being the most agreeable mode for its administration.

ARRIVAL OF MANNING IN LONDON. Frederick George Manning was brought over from Jersey yesterday in the South-Western Steam packet Company's mail steamer the Despatch, Cap tain Childers, which ran into Southampton Docks at ten minutes past seven o'clock last evening, having left St. Helier's at eight o'clock yesterday morning. The last train for the metropolis having left Southampton at six o'clock, he was brought on to London by a special engine, to obviate the incon venience of detaining the prisoner in that port through the night. The special train arrived at Vauxhall station at ten o'clock precisely ; and a cab being in readiness the prisoner was placed in it, and conveyed in the custody of Inspector Haynes and - Sergeant Langley to the police station at Stone's-end. The following authentic particulars of the arrest of Manning in Jersey are given by a reporter, who accompanied the prisoner from Jersey : Manning arrived in Southampton about two o'clock on Wednesday, the 15th ult., and, took up his quarters at the Oxford Arms Inn, near the railway terminus. Here he remained the whole afternoon, and at midnight left for Jersey, by the South-Western Steam-packet Com pany's mail ship the Despatch. During the voyage he appeared on deck very little, confining himself to the fore cabin, and drinking brandy immoderately. On reaching Jersey he disembarked, and in company with a fellow-passenger, named Turk, with whom he had contrived to scrape acquaintance, walked into the town of St. Helier's. Arriving at the Navy Ainis Inn, near the harbour, ho walked into the house, and, with Mr. Turk, applied for the usual accommodation. Mrs. Berry, the landlady, happened to have only one double-bedded room disengaged, and this apartment hav ing been offered to the two applicants was accepted— Manning agrec , ing to pay Be. per week for the rent of the room. On Thursday Manning went out in company with Mr. Turk to see the island, as he described it. He returned home in the evening and partook of tea with the landlord and landlady,subsequently joining the com pany in the parlour, and entering freely into conversa tion with all who came into the room. There was a pecu liarity about him which was not at all agreeable to the landlord, and he was even less liked by the company. He was particularly overbearing in his manner, and fre quently got into altercation with the parties to whom he addressed observations, and with Mr. Turk, the indivi vidual who accompanied him to the Navy Arms, among the rest. On Friday night he was particularly rude to this person, and some conversation having arisen on the subject of money, Manning contemptuously addressed his companion in the following terms:—" Why, -- fellow, I can show more 501. notes than you can so+ reigns." Mr. Turk at once put down all the gold in his pocket (five or six sovereigns), upon which Manning rote from his seat and said, " Oh, never mind, old fellow, why should you and I quarrel?" After which the conversa tion dropped. During Saturday Manning went out as usual, returning in the evening to the Navy Arms, and on the following morning he asked the landlord where he could go to church. In the course of the day he had a great deal of conversation with Mr. Berry, telling him that he had lost all his money in the French revolution, and that he must go to Paris to settle his effairs. He inquired what it would cost to go across to Granville, the opposite port on the French coast ; and upon' ascertaining that he could go for about 205., he expressed an intention of doing so, and begged that Mr. Berry, who we should add is a sea faring man, would accompany him as an interpreter. Mr. Berry declined, and advised Manning, if he wanted to go to Paris, to return to London and go by the usual route to that capital, which he seemed to accede to, desiring to be called in time for the packet leaving Jersey on the following morning. He was duly roused, but declined to get up, and Mr. Turk having lett Jersiy on that day, Manning remained the occupant of the double-bedded room alone. He seldom dined at hoMe, but took two or three meals a-day in the house, arid always ate most voraciously—to use the landlord's oven words, " As much as any three ordinary men." On the Sunday evening Manning entered the parlour of the Bath Hotel, kept by Mr. Seward, one of the mist respectable hostelries at St. Helier's, and joined in con versation with several tradesmen there assemb:ed. The same overhearing manner which had rendered his company so disagreeable at the Navy Arms distii guished him here. In the course of the evenidg ho complained bitterly of the difficulty of obtainirig good living in Jersey, and said he had hid but one good dinner since he had been on the island, and that was off a conger eel. He added that be ought not to feel surprised, for before he left town his brother elerkhad said to him, " Fred, my boy, you'll find the Jersey people a cl--r 1 set of humbugs." The super cilious tone the fellow adopted in making this observa tion was not very gratifying to the persons assembleii, and one of them, named Purkis, who it will be seen sub sequently took an active part in his apprehension, sal.- castically replied, " I tell you what, sir, you'll find J - sey a very healthy place, for where there is one die the are 20 bolt." Manning, still in the same supercilions tone, rejoined, " What do you mean by ' bolt,' Sir t" Mr. Purkis told him that in plain English it meant ab sconding ; upon which Manning threw himself back in his chair and laughed heartily. In the course of the evening a gentleman present having mentioned that he came from Derby, Manning asked him if he knew the family of Massey, of Swarkstone, near that place; and with a singular fatality he went on to explain that the old gentleman's son had lodged with him in Loudon while walking the hospitals; that he was a sad dog, and, suiting the action to the word, he took up his hat, and said, " Look here; the fellow changed hats with me before he left my house, and here is his name in the ono I wear." This conversation, it must be r-- collected, took place before any news of the Ber mondsey murder had reached Jersey, although it was known in London; the newspapers published on Satur day (in which the account first appeared) not reaching Jersey until the Tuesday following. During the re mainder of the evening Manning preserved the same swaggering manner, boasting of his position and descrile• ing himself as a traveller for a cloth warehouse. One gentleman, more sceptical than the rest, expressing him self doubtful of something that Manning had said, he, in a domineering tone and manner, pulling at the same time from his pocket a large card, said " If you are not satis fied, here's my card." He, however, took care not to exhibit the card, and it is not known what name was in scribed upon it. While at the Bath Hotel, on this even ing, he drank a quantity of brandy and water, and when the company broke up was rather intoxicated. He had previously said that he was staying at the Union Hotel, and when he left the house Mr. John Mullis, who sub sequently took part in his apprehension, observing that ho turned in a wrong direction for the Union, said, "I beg your pardon, sir, but I think you are going out of your road." Manning turned round and replied, " I know perfect well where I have got to go to. Good night." On the afternoon of the following day he called again at the Bath Hotel, and asked Mrs. Seward's permission to walk into the bar parlour. She allowed him to do so, and the fellow, seating himself in a chair, entered into conversa tion with her. The want of tact ho again exhibited while talking to Mrs. Seward was, it will be seen, most extraordinary. Had he desired to secure his own ap prehension he could scarcely have taken a more likely course to obtain. lie began by describing himself as a traveller for Sir R. Burnett's British gin, and spoke in high terms of Sir Robert's establishment. Mrs. Seward, knowing that her husband obtained his gin from Sir Robert Burnett, was naturally surprised at this statement and she at once told him that Mr. Seward ob tained all the gin lie had from Mr. Mann, the agent for Sir Robert, on the island. Manning, without exhibiting any alarm at this fact, threw - himself back in his chair. laughed heartily, and exclaimed, How very strange! My name is Mann—;" and then stopping short, Mri. Seward did not catch the last syllable. He remained for some length of time, spoke of the island as a most de lightful place, and said he should bring his dear wife with hint the next time he came. He also took occasion to tell Mrs. Seward that his wife was a very fine woman —that she was passionately fond of him, and that she always addressed him as her "Dear Fred." Before leaving Bath Hotel Manning ascertained that Mr. Seward was in England, but that he would return on the following morning (Tuesday). He said he should be glad to make his ac quaintave, and would call the next morning, and or dered a grilled fowl for lunch, which Mrs. Seward pro seised to get ready. On the evening of this day, while walking in the streets of St. Helier's, Manning met a gentleman whom he formerly knew at Taunton, and who is staying in Jersey, passing his honeymoon. The gen tleman observed Manning first, and not wishing to re cognise him turned his head away before the other saw him. It is supposed that Manning having remarked his presence on the island felt; that it would be unsafe to remain in St. Helier's, and determined to go further in land. He kept his appointment, however, at the Bath Hotel on the following day, arriving about eleven o'clock. Mr. Parsons, the late clerk of the Hampton racecourse, with another gentleman, was seated in the room at this time, and whether Manning recognised his face or not is uncertain, but after looking into the room he hastily withdrew, and was seen no , more at the Bath Hotel. The landlord of the Navy Arms, where he lodged up to this time, states, that he noticed a remarkable change in his manner after Monday, and his altered appearance was also remarked and observed upon by the company who met him in the parlour on the evening of each day. On the Sunday afternoon Manning hailed the driver of the St. Aubin's omnibus in St. Helier's, and taking his seat on the box rode along the coast in the direction of St. Lawrence. He talked freely to the driver, a man named Phillips, during his ride, and remarked on the beauties of St. Peter's Valley, through which they passed. On arriving at the hamlet of St. Lawrence he waved his hand in token of recognition to a gentleman who was walking by the roadside. The gentleman not recognising him as a friend failed to acknowledge the salute, upon which Manning said to the driver, " Is not that gentle man's name Ford?" The 'driver replied that it was, and that be lodged at the Blitish Lion, a small road-side inn near at hand. Manning hereupon exclaimed, "Dear me, how very odd; he's a most particular friend of mine, I knew him most intimately four or five years ago." The omnibus proceeded on i is journey through the valley, and on its return broug'at Manning back as far as the British Lion, where het lighted. On entering the house L he immediately went up to Mr. Ford, who was seated near the entrance, and said " Ah, Ford, my dear fellow, how do you do? lam so glad to see you." Mr. Ford at once recognised the person who addressed him ail Manning, and recollected having frequently met him at the Globe, in South Audley-street, when Manniug's sister was formerly barmaid, and where she was visited by her brother. Mr. Ford having shaken hands; Man- . ning invited himself to dinner, and actually did remain and dine with Mr. Ford and a widow lady who keeps the house. During dinner he spoke freely to Mr. Ford, and appeared quite at ease. After dinner he asked Mr. Ford if ho understood the French language? Mr. Ford said .hg did slightly, _upon which Man 'fling begged that he would accompany him to France, as ho want e d t o go there and arrange several matters relating to some property. He said he would pay all expenses, acid be very much obliged to Mr. Ford if he would go. Mr. Ford declined, and enter taining b01:110 suspicions as to Manning's honesty asked " Are you married, Mr. Manning ?" Manning re plied " Yes." Mr. Ford said, " Where is your wife ?" Manning rejoined, " Oh, she is in London. The fact is I have 2001. or 300/. to lay out, and I have come over here to see how I can invest it best. When I have de termined upon a- course I shall return to England and fetch my wife." He added that he was then in treaty for the purchase of a brewery at St. Heileee. Mr. Ford asked him whose brewery ? Upon which Manning re marked that he was not at libery to give the name at present. In the course of the afternoon Meaning ex pressed a strong desire to see Mr. Ford on the following day. Mr. Ford said he was engaged on Monday and Tuesday, and ultimaltely an appointment was made for the following Wednesday, w h en X... 4 "2,2., promised that he would dine - with nr. - reird letinigs. Ire came at the hour appointed on that day, hut Mr. Ford not being at all anxious to renew his acquaintance with his quondam friend, was not at home, at which Manning expressed some surprise, and asked whether he had not left a message for him—. The landlady said he had not ; and ultimately Manning remained to dinner with this lady end her daughter, and in the course of an hour or two lett, as was supposed, for St. Helier's. Within about 300 yards of the British Lion, on the same line of road, stands a neat little cottage, over the door of which are inscribed the words, "Prospect House," the windows looking directly into the bay of St. Aubin, and commanding a view of Queen Elizabeth's castle and all the picturesque scenery on that part of the coast. This house is occupied by an aged couple, natives of Jersey, named Berteau, the old man tilling a little land, and his wife increasing her store by letting lodgings. Two rooms in the house are occupied by a carpenter and his wife, also natives of Jersey, named Wieldon, and neither of the families speak more than a few words of English, generally conversing in the Jersey patois. To this house Manning appears to have gone after leaving the British Lion on Wednesday, and observing a bill in the window he inquired what apartments they bad to let. Mrs. Berteau showed him a large bedroom which he ul timately hired at 4s. per week, and he arranged to take his meals with the wife of the carpenter, who was to make his bed and wash for him. Having promised to return the same night he went away. On arriving at St. Helier's hetnformed the landlord of the Navy Arms that he should go away on the following day for a short time to stop with his old friend, Mr. Ford, at St. Lawrence, but that he should leave his trunk and probably send for it on Saturday. He begged at the same time that his bedroom might not be let, and that the door should be kept locked. On the Thursday morning he left the Navy Arms at an early hour, and the landlord heard nothing more of his lodger until in quiries were made for him by Langley on the following Saturday. The first information the authorities in Jersey received of the supposed arrival of Manning in that island was through the following lotto,. addressed by Mr. Uter marck, the Crown Prosecutor of Guernsey, to his Ex cellency the Lieut, nant-Governor of Jersey, Sir James Reyn , :tt. This letter was posted et Guernsey on the 221 ult., and received by the Lieutenant-Governor on the following day. We give the letter, as we consider great credit is due to Mr. Utermarck for the part he has taken in the affair:— " Manor-placP, Guernsey, August 22. " forwarded by this day's mail to her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for the Home Department the following circumstances, which were communicated to a constable of this town yesterday, and by him laid before me for my advice. You will, probably, deem them of sufficient import ance to justify certain inquiries being instituted in the island of Jersey, and the communication of the result of such inquiry to the Home-office. " The London papers which reached this island yes terday—l allude more particularly to the Times of Sa turday and Monday last—contained accounts of a dreadful murder at Bermondsey, of which a man named Manning is suspected. " The description of this man contained in the Times of Monday exactly corresponds with the appearance of a parson calling himself by . the same name, who lived in this island for four days in March last, at a respectable lodging-house. ",The sister of the lodging-house-keeper had seen this person there, and on the night from Wednesday, the 15th, to Thursday, the 16th of August, she was passen ger on board the Despatch steamer from Southampton, and is convinced that she saw the man Manning passen ger on board, and that he did not land at Guernsey, and therefore must have reached Jersey on Thursday, the 16th. " The description of the person, as I have bad it from the lodging-house keeper (and I have no doubt he is the same person who lodged in her house in March last as is suspected of the murder), is a tall stout man, full face , age 30 to 35, hair straight and lung. with some peculiar mark or swelling over the eye. " I trust, Sir, that the very serious nature of the case , and the disappearance of the suspected person, will jus tify my intrusion in thus addressing yeur Excellency. " I have the honour to be your Excellency's most obedient, humble servant, " JOHN DE H. UTESKARCIE, " Her Majesty's Comptroller. " To his Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor, Jersey." On the same day that Mr. Utermarck wrote from Guernsey, Mr. Mayne, writing from the office of the Police Commissioners in London. addressed to the Go vernor of the island, Viscount Beresford, the following note:— • " Metropolitan Police-office, 4, Whitehall•place, " August 22. "My Lord,—The Commissioners of Police of the metropolis beg to enclose a printed bill of the particulars of the murder of Mr. Patrick O'Connor, with a descrip tion of Frederick George Manning, the supposed mur• derer, for whose apprehension a reward has been granted. "The Commissioners have some ground for believing that he bas gone, or will go, to Jersey, and they beg that your Lordship will be good enough to have such steps taken as may be in your power to discover Frederick George Manning, and, if any information be obtained, that an immediate communication may be made to the Commissioners. " I have the honour to be, my Lord, your most obe dient servant, " RICHARD MAYNE. " Viscount Beresford, &c." This letter being addressed to the Governor officially, was opened by the Lieutenant-Governor, Sir James Reynett, who immediately conferred with Sir Thomas Le Breton, Chief Justice of the island, on the subject, and he, after consulting with Mr. Dupri, the Attorney- General, Mr. Hammond, the Solicitor-General, and Mr. Lo Sueur, the chief constable, placed the letters in the hands of Mr. Chevalier, the chief centenier of the police, requesting that he would adopt the best measures to discover whether the suspected murderer really was upon the island, and if so to prevent his escape. Mr. Chevalier, on receipt of the letters from Mr. Evans, private secretary to Sir Thomas Le Breton, at once informed that gentleman that he had already received an intimation of the same kind from Sergeant Thornton, of the metropolitan police, dated Southampton, whither that officer had been dispatched to look for Manning. Mr. Chevalier at once took such steps as seemed to him best calculated to arrest the mur nerer if in Jersey. On the following day he ascertained that two persons had engaged a small steam-boat to take them across to St. Malo's, one of whom bore a strong resemblance to the advertised description of Manning. Mr. Chevalier watched the parties down to the pier, and after questioning them, not feeling quite satisfied with a statement tiny made, to the effect that they were about to proceed to St. Male's to attend the funeral of a rela tive who had died of cholera, ho reested them to accompany him to the Mayor or chief constable, M. Le Sueur. Oae of the gentlemen observing a placard in the hands of Mr. Chevalier, offering a reward for the apprehension of the murderers of Mr. O'Connor, asked if he was mistaken for Manning ? Mr. Che valier said it really was so, and ho must request them to accompany him to the Mayor. Although not at all pleased at the detention, the two gentlemen did return into the town and went before the Mayor, who, after hearing their explanation, advised Mr. Chevalier to allow them to depart. The same evening Mr. Chevalier received information that Manning had been seen in St. Helier's by a man named Trenchard, who had known him formerly at Taunton; a nd abo ut eight o'clock ho was further assured of his presence on the island by as certaining that the gentleman who had met him on the Sunday previous had again seen him walking in the streets of St. Helier's. On Saturday morning I ns p ector L angley and Sergeant Lockyer, two officers of the detective police, to the former of whom Manning's person was well known, arrived in Jersey by the Despatch mail steam - packet. Langley had so closely tracked Manning on his way down, that he felt perfectly assured if he had not escaped to the continent he must still be in Jersey. The captain and steward of the Despatch, from the description given of his person, felt satisfied that they had brought him over among their passengers on Wednesday, the 16th ult.; and their description of the man fully satisfied Langley that ho was on the right scent. On landing in the island, he proceeded at once to the police station, where he had an interview with Mr. Chevalier, and ascertained all that he had done. Through the in formation of Trenchard, in the course of Saturday it was discovered ,that Manning had dined on Wed , nesday at the Old Robin Hood Tavern, in St. Helier's. Mr. Burnham, the landlord of this tavern, on being applied to, gave such information as led to the discovery that Manning had been lodging during the week previous at the Navy Arms, which, by the way, it may be mentioned is immediately opposite Mr. WESLEYAN METHODISM. THE WESLEYAN TIMES, of Monday next, the 3d September, will contain a VERBATIM REPORT of the SPEECHES of the Rev. Messrs.

On proceeding thither the efficera hp le ri a se r vt n enio ed unsk t ly h a a ns t dt ha stated, dhm, and l ot e h f t t ehr a ea t r h l 3 e - on things hon nd T t h ph u re r o s m d i a s y e morning,dto send Saturday. elnaw fords at once determined to examine his trunk, and for that pitrpose:thellandlord conducted Langley and Lockycr tp the bedroom he had occupied. Among the articles left was a dark-green paletot, and the moment Langley caught sight of this coat he exclaimed—" That's Al in ning's coat, we are on the right • scent." As_ - it was ex pected that he would return or send for his things on Saturday evening, the house was closely watched until after midnight, but no person came to make any inquiry. -At an early hour on Sunday morning Mr. Chevalier preceeded with Langley and Lockyer to St. Lawrence, and called upon Mr. Ford, who related to them all the circumstances within his knowledge' as to his interview with Manning. The British Lion, where Mr. Ford lodges, is, as before stated, only about 300 yards beyond the house where Manning was a t thi s ti m e lod g ing. The efficers therefore passed the place where he was lying concealed twice on Sunday morning. So completely, hoirever, had he shut himself up at this time .that neither Mr:lord nor any other person had any suspicion of his being upon the island. Mr. Chevalier now came to the conclusion that he must have escaped across the Channel from the northern coast of the island, and after confer. ring with Langley and Lockyer, he determined on ap plying to the Lieutenant-Governor for the loan of is small steam-boat belonging to the Harbour Commis sioners, for the purpose of proceeding to Granville, and giving such information as might lead to the murderer's detection, if he had taken that route. The permission I soughtion of instantly ho ma s L gr a nted , (, subject to Mr. Turnbull, British Consul at Granville , requesting that he would afford the officers all the aid in his power. The steamer, with the officers on board, Breton, and add M re r s . se Evans, a letter by o d n ir t e lt left Jersey at nine o'clock on Sunday morning, and reached Granville before noon. But no traces of the assassin were discovered there, and after taking all ne cessary precautions to secure his apprehension if he ar rived on that part of the French coast, the steamer returned to Jersey. What Mr. Turnbull did will he gathered from the following reply to Mr. Evans' com munication, which Mr. Chevalier brought with him from Granville " Granville, Aug. 25. " Dear Sir,—l received your note, by Mr. Chevalier, respecting the arrest of Manning; I have taken every means at Granville for his detention, and have written to the Vice-Consuls at Cherburg and St. Malo; and the authorities of Reyneville, and Portbail, and Avrauches, will also be immediately requested to arrest him. Should he be arrested on this coast I will immediately advise you.—l remain, dear Sir, yours very truly. "JOHN TURNBULL. " Sir T. Le Breton." On the Monday morning Mr. Chevalier, accompanied by Langley and Lockyer, proceeded to various points round the island from which it was supposed likely he might have crossed the Channel. All the public houses along the main road as far as St. Brelade's bay were visited, and every inquiry was made to discover the fu gitive, both in the interior and along the coast; but as unfortunately no traces could be discovered of him, the impression that he had either gone to France or de stroyed himself began to obtain. In order to preserve the connexion of the narrative, we must now return to the cottage of M. and Madame Berteau, where Manning was all this time quietly secreted. He arrived at M. Berteau's house about eight o'clock bn Thursday morning, and was shown into his room by Madame Berteau, who told him that if he had any friends call upon him he might receive them in her own parlour downstairs. He thanked her for her civility, but said that he should not have any one call upon him, as no one knew him in Jersey. He had not been long in the house before he sent out for a bottle of brandy, of which he drank frequently during thy; day. He remained in doors all day; took his meals with Mrs. Weildou, and conversed with her on various subjects. i In the evening he went out into the garden at the back of the cottage, putting on, for the first time, a blue Guernsey frock and a green felt hat, and re muined there some time talking to M. Berteau, who was pursuing his ordinary avocations. He drank the whole bottle of brandy on Thursday, and early on Friday morning sent for a second, which ho con sumed in the course of that day. The same course of living was pursued by him on Saturday and Sunday, without any suspicion on the part of M. Berteau as to whom he was harbouring. On Sunday a friend of Madame Berteau came in to see her, and having heard something of the habits of the lodger, she remarked that his conduct appeared to be very strange, adding that she hoped he was not the perpetrator of a dreadful murder which had happened in England. Madame Bei teats had heard nothing of the murder, and thought little of her friend's caution, and so the matter dropped for this day. Fortunately, however, Madame Berteau's friend was not the only person whose suspicions were excited by the murderer. The brandy consumed by Manning was: procured from the house of Mr. Heulin, a respect able inhabitant of Jersey, who lives in a small house in St. Peter's Valley. Mr. George Heulin, one of the sons, was in the habit of serving the girl who fetched the brandy, and he also thought it remarkable that so much of the liquor should be consumed at M. Berteau's, who he knew was a very temperate man himself. He asked the girl certain questions, and ascertained from her that the person who drank the liquor was a lodger, who con fined himself to the house all day, and drank brandy, as he said, to keep the cholera away. Mr. Heulin having heard in St. Helier's that the murderer of Patrick O'Connor was supposed to •be concealed in Jersey, at once suspected this to be the man, and deter minedto satisfy himself, if possible. With this view he waTched daily for his appearance in the garden, where the girl had told him he generally went in the evening for a short time. He saw him on Sunday even ing, and again on Monday night, and was the more assured that it was the man in question, in consequence of his evident desire to escape observation by pulling his felt hat over his face as he walked up and down the garden. It should be stated that the garden in question is an open piece of ground, and can be overlooked from the high road as well as from many other points of view. On Monday evening Mr. Heulin made so distinct an ob servation of Manning, while the latter was digging in the garden, that he felt no doubt of the identity of the man. About an hour after, and just as it was becoming dusk, Mr. Heulin went to the back entrance of M. Bar. teen's house, determined to ask him who and what his lodger was, and what name he passed under? Mr. Heulin found Manning sitting with M. Berteau outside the backdoor in a little yard, smoking his pipe. On seeing Mr. Heulin, M. Berteau advanced a few paces towards him. Manning rose at the same time, and retreated into the house. Mr Heulin put such questions as he thought necessary to M. Berteau, and communicated his suspicions to him. M. Berteau, who is in very weak health, was somewhat alarmed, but he was also unwilling to believe that his lodger was the suspected party. He said the man appeared a very nice gentleman, and had given the name of Jennings. That lie certainly did not go out much, but this might be ac counted for by the fact of his being unwell and afraid of the cholera, and no doubt when better he would go out as usual. Mr. lleulin was not satisfied, and at once pro ceeded to St. Helier's in order to communicate with his brother Mr. John Heulin on the subject. When the latter heard his brother's suspicions, he felt perfectly sa tisfied M. Berteau's lodger was no other than George Frederick Manning, and at once proceeded in quest of Langley, whom he met within a few paces of the Bath Hotel, where his brother had detailed the circumstances to him. Mr. Langley felt so satisfied of the correct ness of Mr. Heulin's suspicions, that ho directly took that gentleman to Mr. Chevalier, and urged the pro priety of going over to St. Laurence directly, and ar a It being now past nine o'clock , Mr. resting the man. Chevalier suggested that the man would, in all proba bility, be gone to bed, and that, perhaps, it might be as well to deter his arrest until the morning. Mr. Langley at once objected, remarking, that delays were danger ous, and that as they were now so near their mark, they had better hit upon it. Mr. Chevalier at once con sented, and Mr. Purkis, whose name has been men tioned before as having offered the use of his carriage, Mr. Chevalier, Mr. Langley, Mr. Lockyer, the two Messrs. and Mr. Purkis, at once left St. Helier's for M. Berteau's cottage, to which our narrative must again recur for a few moments. While Mr. George Heulin and M. Berteau were conversing together, Man ning, who had, merely retired from their imme diate observation, remained in the back kitchen, the door of which being open, ho overheard all that passed. The moment M. Heulin had gone, Manning went up to Mr. Berteau in the back kitchen and asked him who the man was he was talking to, what ho came for, and why he wanted to know his name? Mr. Berteau stated to the reporter that while asking these questions the assas sin trembled from head to foot and appeared scarcely able to articulate. Mr. Berteau adds, the thought in stantly occurred to him that he was harbouring a mur derer, and as soon as he had, satisfied Manning that the person who asked him the questions was a neighbour, and that his motives were only those arising from curiosity, he exclaimed to his wife, in French, "That's a murderer." Mr. Berteau confesses that ho was now very much alarmed; and in order to prevent, as fur as pos sible, the man from destroying himself or committing any other crime, he put away a hatchet and some pieces of rope which were lying about the house. Manning, it appears, retired to bed as soon as Mr. Ileulin had gone, and at about half-past nine o'clock the officers arrived. They alighted from their carriage about 200 yards on the St. Helier's side of Mr. Berteau's cottage, and walked thither on foot. By a previously concerted arrangement Mr. Chevalier and Mr. George Heulin went round to the back of the house and explained to Mr. Berteau that they were now come to arrest his lodger on a charge of murder, an announceme nt which appeared to give both the old man and his wife very considerable satisfaction. It was agreed that Mr._ Che• valier should return to the front of th e house and knock t the door, which Mr. Berteau promised to open,and that he should hand to Mr. Ghevaliera lighted candle, with which he undertook to proce ed rfound locked, was to u p stairs to Man niug's room, the door of which, i be instantly burst open, and the party in bed over powered. It was arranged that the Messrs. Heulin should remain outside the cottage and prevent the escape of the assassin by the windows, of which there wer e three to his room alone. Mr. Lockyer and Mr. Purkis tollowed Mr. Chevalier, and close behind them was Lang ley, who could alone identify the murderer, with another [PRICE •SD. lighted candle. Contrary to expectation the door of the murderer's room was found ajar, so that on reaching the landing the officers entered immediately. Mr. Chevalier pushed the door open hastily, and placing the candle he held in his hand on the table he rushed towards the bed in which the man laid. At the same instant Langley, who had merely caught a side glance of his face, cried out, "That's the man—seize him!" Lockyer and Mr. Purkis instantly seized both the murderer's arms, Mr. Chevalier having thrown himself upon the bed, and thus disabled him from making any resistance. The some what rough seizure to w hi c h h e was su bjected appeared to give Manning some annoyance, and he cried out, " Hallo, what are you about? Do you mean to murder me?" The moment he saw Langley, however, he reco vered his composure, and said, " Ah, Sergeant, is that you? lam glad you are come. I know what you are come about. It you had not come I was coming to town to explain all. I am innocent!" He then asked "Is the wretch taken?" alludi ng to his wife, as 'Langley supposed. The officer replied i n t h e af fi rmat i ve, upon which Manning remark e d, " Thank God, I am glad of it; that will save my life. She is the guilty party; I am as innocent as a lamb." Mr. Chevalier directed him to d ress hi mself in the presence of the officers, and when he had dune so he proceeded to handcuff him. Manning, as soon as he saw the irons, ,said, "I hope you are not going to handcuff me." Mr. Chevalier explained the necessity of doing so, upon whi c h h e h e ld out hi s hands, which w ere immediately pinioned by Lookyer. Manning con fessed that all the property in the room belonged to him and seven sovereigns having been found in his carpet bag he said they were all that was left of a sum of 121. which had been paid to him for his furniture by a man in Lon don, " rind that," he added," was all the money I had to start with." Having been conducted out of Mr. Ber teau's house he was placed in the carriage which had brought over the officers, and conveyed them back to St. Helier's. On his way, although no questions were asked him, he volunteered several observations in reference to the crime with which he stand charged. Among other remarks, in allusion to his wife he said, "he hoped she would not destroy herself before he got to London, for when there he could soon clear himself." Again he said, " I suppose she must have 1,5001. upon her; at least she ought to have. She has often told me that she would be revenged upon O'Connor." Mr. Chevalier here asked what she meant by being revenged? Upon which Manning rejoined, " Why, he induced us to take the house in Minver.place, and to furnish it, on the understanding that he would come and live with us, which he did not do ; and my wife got in a great rage, and said she would be revenged." I said. " Don't be angry, dear, and advised her to forget and forgive." O'Conner got off his agreement by paying a few weeks' rent. A little before this time, my wife went to his house, and he showed her notes and railway coupons, and promised that he would leave her the greater part of his property under his will." After a pause, he added, " She frequently went to his house ; and about a fortnight before the murder she invited him to come and dine with us, but he did not come. She wrote him another letter, asking him to dine with us on the fatal day. The dinner was laid up stairs when ho arrived.- My wife asked him if he would not go down stairs and wash his hands, as was his custom before dinner. He replied, " Yes," and immediately went down stairs, followed closely by my wife. As soon as they had reached the bottom of the staircase my wife put one of her arms round O'Conner's neck, and with the other hand she fired a pistol at the back part of his head. ' O'Connor immediately fell dead. I fainted, and do not know what became of the body. Mr. Chevalier asked the assassin if he had not seen a hole dug in his back kitchen ? Upon which he said, "Oh ! yes. I had seen it and I believed that it was intended for me. I believe my wife intended to murder me." After arriving at the gaol the prisoner complained of indisposition, and the medical officer having been as nt fur, recommended that he should be allowed to have some brandy and water, alter which he speedily re covered himself, and retired to bed in good t-pirits. One remarkable fact in connexion with his apprehen sion on Monday night should be mentioned. It appears that during that day he had asked Mrs. Weildun, ti e woman with whom he boarded in M. Berteau's house, whether that old gentleman had much money. Mrs. Weildon, it is supposed, did not satisfy him, and in the evening he visited an old man named Trachea who lives in the next cottage, and whose back premises commu nicate with those of M. Berteau, and asked him the same question, adding a remark to the effect that as the old couple had no children, probably they might have some money by them. Traehy aught the question strange, but took no notice of it. NVltert the officers entered his room an open razor was lying upon the table, and the door of his apartment, for the first time since he had alert in the house, was ajar, and not Tiscked as it had previously been. Coupling these facts, is it too much to suggek that probably the assassin contemplated a second col - blooded murder on that very night, in the hope of obtain ing more funds to enable him to pursue his flight fro justice? Such is the opinion very generally eutertaine at St. Helier's. There being no warrant in Jersey against Mannin 1 , the Chief Justice and the other a u th or i t i es were pl ace l i in a very awkward predicament. Le ga lly th e y h a d n , power to give up their prisoner to the London officers; nor, we believe, would they have done so, but for th unfortunate outbreak of cholera in the gaol on Wednes day last. One fatal case occurred on the evening of tha day, and three other prisoners were carried off to th hospital on Thursday morning. The very awkwar consequences of anything serious happening to Mannin while in gaol at St. Ilelier's were felt by the Govern() aad the Chief Justice, and after long consideration i was determined to send the prisoner to town in charg4 of the detective officers, without a warrant. Persons were not allowed to see the prisoner in the gaol, but there were some few exceptions, of course, to this rule, but when a party was admitted the accused appeared greatly pleased to exhibit himself, walking up and down an enclosed corridor with his hands behind him and seeming to be perfectly at ease with himself; Sir Thomas Le Breton visited him on Thursday, and when the prisoner recognised the worthy knight, h said, " Sir Thomas, how long am I to be detained here I wish you would let me be sent on to London. When{ I get there I shall ha able to make it all right in a few hours." Sir Thomas said that matters were not quite arranged for his removal, but that no time would be lost ; which appeared to satisfy him. In the course of Friday, a gentleman named Evans obtained an order to go into the gaol, and being curious to observe the prisoner's: person, he approached the corridor very closely. Man ning observed him do so, and, instead of retiring, he came up close to the iron railing, and, in a sort of whis per, said to Mr. Evans, " Come closer, I want to speak to you." Mr. Evans, upon this, went up to the corridor,. upon which Manning remarked to hits, " This is an', awkward place to be in, is it not?" Mr. Evans said, in-, deed it was. Manning replied, " Ah, I shall he all right, when I get to Loudon—l shall be all right in a week."' He then said, " Have you seen to-day's news paper?" Mr. Evans said he had not. Manning said, " Well, look at it to-morrow, you'll see all about it." He then asked, " his my wife confessed?" Mr. Evans replied that he did not know. Manning then said, "It was a bad spec of mine leaving London, was it not? If I had not left London, I should have' been all right,' After some other strange observations to the effect that he was getting " peckish " and should be glad of his dinner, he mentioned to Mr. Evans thet the turnkey was approaching, and walked away. Dur ing Friday morning two prisoners were seized with cholera in the gaol, and in order to convey them to the hospital it was necessary to pass through the corridor oc cupied by the prisoner. Manning appeared much inte rested at this incident, volunteered to assist, and did direct the persons employed how to place the patients in stretchers. We have omitted to state that one ground of suspicion against Manning arose from his anxiety to see the news papers. During the whole of his stay in St. Helier's he was always observed to bo most anxious to see a cony of the Times or any other Landon newspaper; and on the Tuesday after his removal to St. Lawrence he sent out the girl two or three times to obtain a newspaper (local or London), and offerod to give a shilliug for the sight of one. The girl went to Mr. Henlin's to soe if :lie could get one; hence the suspicions his son had pre. ►iously entertained wero considerably strengthened. At seven o'clack yesterday morning Mr. Chevalier and the detective officers proceeded to the gaol for the pur pose of conveying the prisoner to the packet. He made a particular request that he might be allowed to walk through the streets of St. Helier's:, and, as it was very early in the morning, Mr. Chevalier consented to allow him to do so, Langley and Lockyer walking on either side of the accused, and Mr. Chevalier immediately be hind him. Ile asked as a particular favour to be allowed a cigar. This request was also complied with; and it is a fact that the suspected murderer of Patrick O'Connor actually walked a distance of nearly half a mile from the gaol to the pier through the streets of St. Helier's smok ing a cigar, with all the ease imaginable, and exhibiting the insolent bearing for which he is so ren e r , Manning was highly delighted at the notice he for some ea on shipboard, and with one woman he c o on; iyes : l and that time, remarking that he had " had tw was one too many." e ten le v e nm hours. inutes The Despatch steamed in o past seven o'clock, after a h t d e lightful barb sail of o a f t Mr. Inspector Haynes ere b came on board to receive tho and a fly having gen obtained, he was hand prison. er, of officers and conveyed to the railway cuffed to one the station. wo re a great many persons assem bl e d at There Southampton to witness the prisoner's departure, and in several places where the train crossed the streets the spectators hooted very loudly. The special train arrived at ttio Vauxhall station at 10 o'clock precisely, and as it was feared that the telegraph having announced the prisoner's expected arrival, a crowd might be assembled at the Whterloo station, the prisoner was removed from the carriage at this place, and convey e d b y I nspector Haynes and Sergeant Lang ley to the Stone's-end police station, where the charge against him having been entered by Inspector Yates, he was placed in one of the cells, closely watched by two officers, It is understood that he will be brought up for exa mination before Mr. Seeker this day. Of the prisoner's personal appearance, let us add one word, Il e i s a b u ll-h ea d e d, thi c k• nec k e d man, with a halt effeminate expression, arising from a very fair com plerion and light hair. Altogether, thrrefore, he may be described as a repulsive looking individuA. NAVAL IN TELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY.—There is a ver3 En deavour making among a gallant and ekss here to raise funds for founding and maintaining a home ashore for seame❑ of the Royal Navy at this port. Fore most in this good work is Captain Hall, F.R.S., of the Dragon steam-frigate, whose efforts have been most suc cessfully directed to the same philanthropic oral at other parts and places. The object of this institution is to provide seamen when paid oft, or otherwise without a ship, board, lodging, and medical attendance, at ay mo derate a charge as possible, in order that their clothes, bedding, money, and persons may be properly protee(ed from th• designing, who are always on the watch to inveigle the unguarded and thoughtless seamen, This institution will encourage seamen to habits of ( conetny; it will also provide them with religious and intellectual instruction until they can again provide themselves ssith a ship. A reading room and library will be attached to the institution. The First Lord of the Admiralty has, (we are informed) consented to become patron of tno institution if his colleague, Sir George Staunton, with him will become joint patron, but as First Lou] of the Admiralty Sir Francis Baring does not patronise the scheme, The Board were applied to for the old lsbora tory—a most eligible building, admirably epaptul to all the requirements of such an establishment as a Sailors' Home, but their Lordships stated that they wanted it as a barrack for the crews of steamers in commission whilst under repair in the steam-basin. The Lords of the Admiralty went on board the ap prentices' brig Rolla, Lieutenant•Comtuander Feuwiek, this morning, and afterwards to the Excellent gunnery ship, Captain Chads, C. 8., where the perfection of man of-war discipline and firing was exhibited; but, strange to say, although the water was "smooth as the glassy surface of a lake," they did not pay a similar visit to ; he Superb, 80, at Spithead. If the board intend keeping the latter ship many more months at Spithesd it would be esa act of benevolence to allow her captain to lift anchor two or three times a week and run out to sea. just to relieve the monotony of the officers and men's duties, as well as to give them a change of air in these sickly times. An inspection of the gun wharf, under the direction of Mr. Stewart, the chief of that department of the Ordnance at this port, concluded the perambulations of the Lords of the Admiralty, who left by the one o'clock train on their retern to town. The Dragon steam-frigate being found too efficient for the Royal Navy with her present compliment, the Lords of the Admiralty have reduced it fifteen men. Twenty-four labourers in this dockyard, hired fur the survey, are ordered..ttibadiseharged to-morrow. The Stromboli steam-sloop, Commander Lord Arm li us Beauclerk, sailed this afternoon, for Aberdeen, to await the pleasure of her Majesty. THE DOCKYARD BATTALION.—The drills for this summer concluded last evening, when Major Edwards (storekeeper), of the artillery companies, dismissed his wing of the body with an animated and suitable address, which drew hearty cheers from the whole. Wind—S. by W., light breezes and fine weather. PLY MOUTH, Auo. 30.—Her Majesty's frigate Arc thusa arrived on Sunday from Pembroke, and was on Illonday towed by the steam-vessel Salamander from the Sound to the sheer hulk in Hamoaze, where she is to be dis mantled. Her Majesty's packet Crane sailed on Tue:AAy for Falmouth. ller Majesty's steam-vessel Myrtle arrived on the 28. h from Portsmouth. COURT- MAWrIAL ON COMMANDER PITMAN.—SE COED DAY.,—AuG. 29.—The court was occupied more or less, from nine o'clock in the morning to half-past five this afternoon in the cross-examination of Mr. A. R. Elliott, the master, by Commander Pitman. The only points worth extracting were as follow :—" Mr. Elliott entered the services in 1813, and joined the Cl.il2e.s in August, 1846. Declined to state whether he was put under arrest on the 25th of June, 1847, for being asleep on his watch. Regarding the Marine Hague, said to be invalided as insane through Commander Pitman's severity, witness had been told that, before join;ng the Childers, Hague broke into the Rodney's cellar, stole wine, became intoxicated, fell into the dock, and was then injured. Had heard the Marion White (who drowned himself) make a desparate oath, that if flogged he would jump overboard. Did not know if it v,aa by Commander Pitman's special order that the boys were " scrubbed at the ship's Lead," Th e d eser ti on at Hobart Town was caused by the cruelty on board, and not by the high wages offered by the South Sea whalers. Had not heard that the men were dragged ashore. Kew that the mess servant Allen was brought on board in a state of stupor from drunkenness; his previous god character saved him from flogging. The special inst incea of cruelty were towards the marines Hague and White, the boy Cleverton, two seamen, Gillman and Kitts (who (lied in China), and the midshipman's steward, who committed suicide. had seen Clevtrton cruelly dis figured; heard him scream, but did not re mem b er hi s being flogged. Knew Commander Pitman struck the boy with his fist. Kitts was kept standing with his hammock on his shoulder several hours at night when general sickness prevailed in the ship. Gallaein was punished more severely, being ordered to stand in the same manner after working hours, a period of for ty or fifty days, after'whieh he went into his hammock and died, declaring that the cruel treatment to which he hal been subjected was the cause of his death. The mid shipman's steward was flogged two or three times, and being threatend with a repetition of the punishment, jumped overboard and was drowned. During the time years witness served in the Childers eleven cenaimis aioned officers left the ship either invalided or by. ox change. PEDISROLE.—The Triumph, one of the lazarettos of the port of Milford, has been removed to the Pembroke yard, where she is now moored, by directions from the Board of Admiralty, to serve as a cholera hospital ship in tho event of an outbreak of the epidemic. This is, we are glad to state, only a precautionary measure, no decided case of cholera having appeared in the district. We understand that two new frigates of the first class, to carry GO guns each, have been ordered to be built at Pembrt ke. They are to be named the Melpomene and the Immutalite, The coppering of the Octavia first-class frigate, launched some days ago, is proceeding rapidly; when jury-rigged she will be navigated to Devonport. The following are her dimensions:— Length over all ... Length of keel ... Extreme breadth Tonnage ditto ... Muulded ditto ... Depth of hold ... Burden ... Ft.

INSTITUTION FOR THE ADULT DEAF ANDDUAIE, 2G, RED LION -SQUARE, BLOOMSBURY.—At a meeting of the committee of this excellent institution, held in the board room, 26, Red Lion.equare, Bloomsbury, it was stated that the progress of the several inmates in learning the trades carried on in the institution had been satisfactory and gratifying. It was further observed that numerous applications had been made on b,.half of d. of and dumb individuals both in the metropolis send the provincial districts, including several of an urgent and deserving nature; but it was regretted, that Owing to the want of funds the applicatious could not he en tertained however missing they might be, and however worthy the objects were of sympathy and chatit4hle consideration. A hope having been expressed that the co-operation of the :Affluent might early warrant the extension of the good works of the charity, the meting passed some routine business and separated. THE FIRE OF LONDON, 166 G.—The day and hour of this national calamity corresponds with the ensuing recurrence of its anniversary. The fire commenced at the house of Mr. Farryn r, a baker, in Pudding-lane, tit one o'clock in th e mo rn i ng o f Sunday, Sept. 2, 1666; and, according to the inscription on the Monument, " Adjecit, quoque supplicationes annuas et ad eternnn postetiorum memoriam—H.
