down Good went out and locked me in as I requested. The next day I went home by the steam-boat from Putney. That was the only time I slept there. I have been once into the stable with Good when young Houghton, the gardener's son, was present. I took the steamboat close to Putney-bridge. Good took me on board with my luggage, and after that he left me. At London-bridge I was put on board a Woolwich steamer, which put me on shore at Charlton Pier. By the CORONER—Good has offered me marriage, but I refused him at first. On one occasion we were talking about religion, and I said I should not like to marry a Catholic, when he said, " Nor he either." He had told me before he gave me the things that his wife had died about five years ago of a de cline, and I therefore thought nothing of his offering the things. By the Jury—The boy was holding the horse when he brought the things in, and the bonnet was in a band-box, but they were open on the table and a chair in the room when the boy came in to tea. The boy said nothing in my presence about his mother, but while in the chaise Good told the boy he must call me mother, as his aunt had gone into the country. Tht boy made no observation to it, but called me mother, and asked me to request his father to let him drive. I did not know who Good meant when he said " his aunt." Did not know if the boy was Good's son. He told me he had a son, but he did not say where he lived. The articles produced are the same I gave to the police. They bear a mark I put upon them. pubes to the centre of the sternum or breast-bone ; and to the left of that bone the last ribs are separated from their attach. ments. The body was also cut across from the centre above the hip, all round, so that it only required the separation of the vertebrae to divide it into two halves, which cut appears to ter minate at the junction of the last dorsal with the first lumbar vertebrw. The whole of the intestines are removed. The dia phragm is ruptured above the situation of the liver. The lungs and heart in their proper places in the thorax or chest unin jured. I removed them, and found them perfectly healthy, and returned them to their proper places. There was a small clot of blood in the ascending aorta, but none in the cavities'of the heart itself. From the descending aorta being com pletely removed with the intestines, there was no blood in the abdominal cavity. The legs were taken off by first cutting the flesh, turning the body round to effect this, and then extending the limb and chopping the femur or thigh bone from the inner side, below or just at the termination of the great trochanter, which terminates the neck of that bone, leaving the heads of the bones in the sockets. I judge of this by the bone being cut through and smooth on its upper side, and the under side broken and rough. Both are severed in the same way. The body is in good condition, and plump and fresh, with no tendency at present to decomposition. From certain appearances I should be inclined to think that the individual was at the time of her decease at least four or five months enciente. Ido not think that she ever had a child. From the discovery of a quantity of charred or calcined bones found in the harness room, there is no doubt that the head and limbs of a human being have been burned, as parts of these can be clearly made out, and it is probable the intestines have been disposed of in the same way, as they can no where be found. There was no tendency to disease either in the heart or lungs; and I am of opinion she was in good health at the time of her death. There was no blood remaining in her body. By the CORONER—From the absence of blood I think that the dismemberment of the body, and the separation of the head from the body and limbs, took place immediately upon death. I cannot say the actual cause of death, but I am inclined to say she had met a violent death. Mr. Allen, assistant to Messrs. Shilleto, surgeons, of Putney, gave similar testimony. The CORONER said that although so near the termination of their labours, the inquiry had better be adjourned. The Jury agreeing with the Coroner, the inquest was, at midnight, adjourned till two o'clock this day. The witness, who appeared a decent young woman, was then led out of the room. The Next witness examined was the boy Daniel Good, St) years of age, who, having in a most clear and sensible manner answered the questions put to him by the Coroner as to the nature and sanctity of an oath, was sworn. He then stated, I Itave been brought up to attend the Church of England service. I am 10 years of age. I think my father is alive. His name ;s Daniel Good. He is coachman in the service of Mr. Shiel, of Putney Park-lane, and has been so, I think, about two years and four months. I did not live with him, but at 18, South street, Manchester-square, with my mother. Illy father told sne she was my aunt. She called herself my mother. I don't know that I have ever heard her call my father her husband. Father • used to come to South -street once or twice a•-week. Sometimes father used to come about six o'clock in the morn ;_ng when'mother was in bed, when he would gat into bed too, and stay about half an hour. He would then get up and go back to Putney. I have not seen my mother since last Sunday week. It was about one o'clock in the day when I came home to South -street from Baker -street Chapel. After dinner I went back to school, and left mother at home, and I have not seen her since. Mother told me, when I went out, to go to sleep at No. 99, East -street, because she was going out, and go ,hg to Putney Park-lane. She told me father said she should lot bring me with her. She said it was by his order. Did rot see my father on that Sunday, but saw him the next day. He sent for me from school, and I found him at home in South -street. He told me at once that my mother had gone Ato service, and that I should not see her before six months. After I got there my father did not stay above ten minutes, tilien he took me to his master's house in Putney Park••lane. I Jul not see my mother there or anything belonging to her on hat day. I slept in the house that. night, and went to bed a'hout ten o'clock. We rode to Putney in an omnibus, and got ;here about nine o'clock. On Tuesday night I slept at Priest ridge, at Mrs. Phillips's (Mrs. Hester's). On Wednesday I 'vitt with my father to Woolwich, where I had tea. We went tp .Wool wich in a chaise. Did not see my father do anything there. We had tea at a house No. 15, but I de not know qv: name of the place. he went there to see some one. He lid a small box with a bonnet in it. The box was covered by a.liandkerchief, but I saw there was a bonnet in it in the 4astiSts. e The CORONER—Do you know what colour the bonnet was. liYas it black, red. brown, green, or blue ? Bey—lt was a blue one. I have seen my mother wear it. I lave known it ever since she first had it. I knew directly that it-.was my mother's bonnet. Father had also a small bundle in altvhite handkerchief; the contents I did not see. He took the bundle and bonnet into the house at Woolwich, and I saw him Ave them to a woman he knew there, as well as many other things. I saw some of them were apples and pears, That is what I meant by other things. My father, I, the fetnale, and a girl had tea together. While in the Aorn there I saw the bonnet. Those things were left there when my father and I came away. We then returned to li'litney in the chaise. The woman who took tea with us came if ,the chaise as far as the railway (New Cross). Father and *lie; female then got out and went into the public-house, and ipMained there about half an hour. We then left and came to Putney. The female left us at the public-house. We got '}tome to Putney about nine o'clock. Before we got to Put- Pzi we stopped at Wandsworth, and my father went into a 4flesep. It was a kind of tailor's shop. He bought a pair 01. breeches, and put them into the chaise under where I sat. 'Did not see him with anything else. He put nothing but the breeches under my seat as I saw. When we got to Putney I wissta.ken to the stables. Father was there too, attending to the pony; after that, as we were leaving the stables, and going up tS'the house, a policeman came. He charged my father with ha4ing stolen a pair of trousers, and asked leave to search the stables. During the search in the stables they found a dead bisAly. I was with them. I saw the body, and thought it was a prga • I could not recognise it. My father then ran out of the st4sles and locked us all in. I have not seen my father from that time to this. Mother, when she went out from home, asmerally wore a blue bonnet. The one produced is my mo istw s. is the same bonnet 1 saw on Wednesday in the sliaise and at Woolwich. The dress produced is my mother's. I know it by the stuff and the way it is made. 1 also know the aittern and colour. I have also seen her wear gloves like those rhduced. I have also seen her have such a neckerchief as t *produced, and I believe the boots to be my mother's also. 'l'4 witness then identified the keys before produced to be his t , enther's property. One unlocked the padlock of her room mar, another her money-box, and the guard chain I have fre- inently seen her wear. elhe public, including the reporters for the press, were ex- ItMed from the room, and were kept out for nearly an hour. While so excluded Mr. Royal was recalled. r)lr. Reeks, the shiliord, was next called in, and after him a female named at'etch, who w as i n th e room f u ll h a l f-an-hour. On the public eihig re-admitted, the Jury retired for about ten minutes, and a their return (eight o'clock), "The CORONER. said the reason of the order having been riven for the room to be cleared, and even the gentlemen of be,press excluded, was, that it was feared the publication of she a evidence then entered into might tend to frustrate the course of justice, and defeat the apprehension of the supposed .ausderer. John Houghton, second gardener to Mr. Shiell, was then •xamined, atter having been cautioned by the Coroner not to snsierr any question which he considered might criminate imself. He then stated—l live on Mr. Shiel's premises, irsnard Lodge, Putney Park-lane. My father is head gar aner, and lives in the farm-yard. I occupy a room over the stables. 'There are four rooms on the floor that is over the +Wee and the harness room. I slept in the room next to fr,niel Good, who was coachman in the same service, and opt at ':r. Shiel's residence. On the night of Wednesday st I was at my father's house, which is about fifty yards from 14 stables, and had been there about a quarter of an hour hen my sister came in with a little boy, who was the son Daniel Good. The boy was crying, and he stated that IT father had run away, and he was anxious to know where is aunt lived. I immediately went to see what was the - flatter, my fa:her having stopped so long.. I went to the fable on the right hand in the yard, in which are three stalls, a loose stall, and a loose box. I then saw my father and a policeman standing there. Assistance was sent for to look after Daniel Good, for stealing a pair of trousers from Mr. Col lirtgbourne. They did not tell me of the discovery of the body, thinking it would not be a proper thing to tell me, but about twelve o'cloesk my father told me of it. I saw the body. I had a slight eempse of it. I did not know the person. I remained with ttse constable during the night in the stable. I have seen tie body several times since. lam sure Ido not know the body. It has every appearance of being the body of a female. I have no knowledge more than the utterest stranger as to who put the body there. lam quite ignorant of it. I have no reason to suspect how the body came there. I have been in toe stable., but never had any concern in any kind of secrets whatever. Ido not know of Good being in the habit of having :emales in the stables, but I have heard him down at all hours of the night repeatedly. I mean in the harness-room. I have enown him to have tea with foma es there once or twice. Never knew Good to have females to sleep there. I have seen Susan Butcher there at tea with Good. Cannot say when I last saw her there. It is more than a month ago. Good told me he had lost his wife five sears ago, and that his sister had the care of his boy at the west end of the town. I have seers the person he called his sister three times, once in London, and twice at the stables at Roehampton. Last Sun day fortirght I saw her there in the afternoon, and on the Monday morning following, about ten o'clock, I saw her pass big dawn the lane towards Putney. She was alone, bad a blue bonnet on, and a bundle with her. Did not know where she a;etit. That, on my oath, was the last time I saw that female. I say it to my soul—to my heart. Whether the body that was found is the body of that female I can't say, as there are no features. On the Tuesday morning Good told me he had a 'lie to dry the harness, and I saw smoke issuing from the harness . oom chimney. I went to bed on those nights perfectly sober. CORONER—What description of character was Good, and slat was his general conduct? Witness—He had never a good character, and no one would - est him much. He was a kind of a swindler. lam not in a; of Good, that is to say, bodily fear. I sleep very sound -.act heavily. I can't say how the body came there. Good had ale access to the stables. He always kept the key himself, id ever since he came into the service, if he only went into to harness-room he would lock the stable-door. Good had stays to be in at ten o'clock, but after that he could get out on .e sly. I have no suspicion of any one but Good having put e body there. Good could neither read nor write. Wm. M'Evoy examined,—l live at No. 2, Laundry-yard, `restminster, and am a pavior. On Thursday morning, ayat three minutes past six o'clock, I was in the Poultry. lam a man came up to one of my comrades and spoke to him Irish, and he then said in English he wanted a direction titten. Ile then asked me, and I agreed to do it. We went the Three Tuns in Coleman-street, and the man called for quartern of gin and a sheet paper. I then began the letter. l)e, one produced is my handwriting. The letter is as fol.- , ea:— " April 7, 1842.

Examination resumed—The direction is " Mr. Shiel, Esq., Ti Ge h a m i aori, Surrey." The man, when I had finished writing the letter, told inc to put the name of " Daniel Good" to it.

APRIL 13, 1842. *tronbr ',,bttion SUN OFFICE Three .'Clock. Every great discovery marks an era in the language and the thought of the human family. Thus in travel ling we formerly measured distance by space ; but since the application of steam to the purposes of loco motion, we have learned to reckon distance only by time. We no longer hear people ask how many miles separate Liverpool from London, but in how many hours a rail way train communication can be effected between these great emporiums of commerce. The annihilation of space, and the extension of time have, in all ages, and in all countries, exercised the ingenuity of civilized mar . j In proportion as men have triumphed over distance by speedy and permanent means of locomotion, have they extended their power, diffused a knowledge of the arts, and given stability to the operation of an uniform sys tem of social organization. The force of arms did not do so much to cement the union between England and Scotland as good roads and mail-coach intercourse It is the same with Ireland ; and though a faction in that country repeat the parrot-note of a Repeal of the Union, we have Only to render more perfect the communication between London and Dublin to make it of as little significance as the revival of the war-cries of the Irish septs in the 16th century. We are therefore glad to find Mr. OWEN STANLEY reviving in the House of Commons the ques tion of abridging the time communication between London and Dublin, by means of a railway from Chester to Holyhead, by far the best Irish steam-packet station. It now takes twenty-four hours to perform the journey between London and Dublin, which by the proposed route could be made in fifteen, or at the very utmost eighteen hours, a saving of one-fourth the time of performing a journey from the English to the Irish capital. This is of immense importance, both in a commercial and a political point of view, but chiefly in the latter. By proper management Ire land can be made the right arm of England. With a fertile soil, fine harbours, a coast admirably adapted for extensive fisheries, unopened mines of coal, rind rich ore in abundance, there is in Ireland, properly governed, a field of enterprise for the capitalists far finer than any yet discovered in the New World. Bad govern ment and religious persecution have made the mass of the people reckless, suspicious, and turbulent; but the causes of these vices in their character once removed, they will be found industrious, frugal, and cordially attached, and faithful to their employers. Did the British capitalists but know what a harvest of wealth might be reaped from one half the outlay and enterprise in Ireland, which they devote to the achieving of fortunes in the Colo nies, Ireland, instead of being one of the poorest. would be one of the wealthiest countries in Europe. It is the duty of the Government to take the initiative in developing the vast resources of wealth now hidden in Ireland. For this purpose the first step is to facilitate as much as possible the communication between the two This is due to the people of England, who are annually saddled with an enormous weight of taxes, because Ireland is too poor to bear a fair proportion of the public burdens. What said Sir ROBERT PEEL on proposing the imposition of an income tax upon England and Scotland ? He could not extend the tax to Ireland, as the machinery of taxation was wanting in that country—or, in other words, the bulk of the population being without breeches, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER Could not contrive to thrust his hand into their pockets. Now it will be for the benefit of England and Scotland that as little time be lost as possible in enabling Ireland to provide herself with this very necessary machinery of taxation. The question as regards the Government is one of great political importance. Ireland, prosperous, would be a source of strength, of wealth, and of national pride to us ; whereas, Ireland poor, is a sort of drag chain upon English industry. As Irish absentees are to be subjected to the income tax, Sir ROBERT PEEL'S State nostrum may have the effect of driving some of the m home, which, notwithstanding Mr. M'CuLLoca's ab santee theory, will greatly benefit Ireland. In the meantime, however, we trust the communication between London and Dublin will be abridged as much as pos sible, without regard to the minor consideration of a considerable amount of immediate outlay. countries. The long agitated question of Church Patronage in Scotland is to be brought forward a third time this Ses sion in the House of Commons to-morrow evening, by Mr. ALEXANDER CAMPBELL, on a motion for leave to bring in a Bill on that subject. Being well aware from what quarter this Bill proceeds, and acquainted by expe rience with the extravagant demands of one party in the Kirk, and the determined opposition to them by another, we have a perfect conviction that this new attempt to settle the question will be productive of no good, and that it would be infinitely better to kayo mat ters to right themselves, the Government in the meantime exercising with moderation and impartiality that authority which the law confers upon them. The Earl of ABERDEEN endeavoured to mediate between the contending parties—had various and lengthened corres pondence with each—and when he imagined that he had made arrangements which would give general satisfac tion, he brought in a Bill to alter and amend the law of Patronage in the Church of Scotland. The reception which this " healing measure" met with from the men whom the Duke of ARGYLL, Mr. Fox MAULE, and Mr. CAMPBELL patronise, is well known. The Non-Intrusionists in the General Assembly were furious, they denounced his Lordship as a bitter enemy of the Church, and one of them had the impious audacity to accuse him of a design " to dethrone the Lord JESUS CHRIST." Sir GEORGE SINCLAIR tried his hand at the same benevolent work. He too corresponded with the leaders of the Non-Intrusionists, and vainly hoped that he could settle all differences, till he found them totally unmanageable, and gave up the attempt in despair. After a severe but well merited exposure of their conduct, which he has published in the shape of a pamphlet, the worthy Baronet has washed his hands of the business, and left the "wild men " to make the best of their perverse and impracticable designs. If, therefore, two men of undoubted ability, men, too, of the most amiable dispositions, and anxious to put an end to the unseemly dissensions which have so long distracted Scotland, haVe lamentably failed in their purpose, if the Duke of ARGYLL allowed his Bill to die a natural death, because his own party, all-powerful in the House of Lords, could not support him, what chance has his nominee in the Commons, without support from the Go vernment, or any one quality to fit him for such a:task,"ox cept blind devotion to the Non-Intrusionists—what chance has he of carrying any measure which will receive the approbation of Parliament, and at the same time satisfy men who will accept nothing less than their demands in full? When we look, too, at the way in which they have exercised their usurped power, at the cold-blooded manner (using the words of Sir J. G. CRAIG, a long-tried Liberal) in which they deposed the seven excellent ministers of Strathbogie, arid at a posterior decision, by which they put seventy more of their brethren under the ban, are we not, in the name of mercy and peace, called upon to resist every Bill which would in any way increase the authority of ecclesiastics so little scrupulous, and so forgetful of Christian charity? The subject has been so often discussed in this Journal, that it would be only a waste of words to dilate on it farther. In the present temper of the contending parties, no rational plan can be adopted ; and it would, therefore, be infinitely better to refrain from exciting discussions in Parliament which can only add fuel to the flame. A Morning Contemporary, who has changed his opinions twice on the subject, who first advocated the claims of the Non-IntrusionistF, who then deserted them, and who is now halting be tween two opinions, strongly recommends the Govern ment to take upon itself the settlement of the unseemly differences. But the very wavering conduct of our Con temporary gives little weight to his advice, and when it is known, too, that he recommends the Bill of Lord AnEßDEEN—ejected with such scorn and disdain—we may safely infer that Sir ROBERT PEEL and Sir JAMES GRAHAM will not pay much regard to the admonitions of such a versatile and inconsistent counsellor. The Madrid Journals received are of the 4th inst. Their contents are of little interest. On the previous day there was a grand review of the troops before th e REGENT, who was loudly cheered by all the civilians and militarypresent. In the Chamber of Deputies on the 4th. M. SANCHEZ SILVA, Deputy for Jeres, gave notice of an " interpellation" upon the delay of the Minister in bring ing in the Supplementary Bill to the Tariff on the in troduction of manufactured cotton goods ; and the re ports in circulation about a treaty of commerce being negotiated with Great Britain. The Minister ofFinance re plied that the Minister for Foreign Affairs, M. GONZALES, to whom it in part belonged to reply to this interpel lation, was ill ; and that so far as it related to him, the Minister of Finance, he would be ready to give an answer as soon as he had made the necessary inquiries on the subject. There is not much to engage attention in the French Journals received this morning. On Monday Court BOISSY and the Prince DE MOSKOWA attacked Xi. Gui- ZOT in the Chamber of Peers upon the slave question 1 but as the discussion was not concluded at post hour, we shall reserve the particulars till the conclusion shall have reached us. M. GUIZOT spoke in friendly terms of this country, said that he had not ratified, nor fixed a time for ratifying, the slavery suppression treaty, and that the British Government gave him no trouble upon the subject. The following extract from a Havre journal appears to us exceedingly apocryphal, albeit it may pos sibly be true enough : It appears that Lord Cowley has sent in to M. Guizot a note en certain diplomatic difficulties. It refers to one written a week before, in which there was a question of the French naval force in the Mediterranean. Lord Aberdeen com plained of the magnitude of the fleet at Smyrna, and threatened, if it was not reduced, England would reinforce its stations in the Levant. On this threat, M. Guizot caused immediately four of Admiral La Susse's ships to be recalled. But this concession of M. Guizot has not satisfied England. He is now requested to unite with Lord Aber deen in pleading before the Divan the cause of Bishop Alex ander. AI. Guizot has been the more readily solicited to do this, on account of his being a Protestant, and thus, under the specious pretence of toleration, he may contribute •to weaken the influent of Catholicism in Syria. The same note treats cursorily of Algiers and Tunis, and betrays the idea that the Sovereignty of the Porte over all the Barbary Regencies is one of those points which the two last treaties with the Powers of Europe are intended to maintain. This species of manifesto, remitted into Monsieur Guizot's own hands by Lord Cowley, was backed by a verbal request for an answer in a short time. This has caused a certain degree of emotion among► all those who have had knowledge of the note. The first care was to keep it secret until some answer had been decided upon. On his side Lord Cowley promised that secrecy should be kept. by him, both in Paris and in London. Nevertheless, in spite of all these precautions, M. Thiers seems to have had some intimation on the subject ; and it is in conse quence of it that he brought up the question of Algiers in a late sitting of the Chamber, by an apparent futile discussion about the Porte ; but he withheld a great deal of what he knows, and as yet he has not•had his say. We subjoin the only other extracts worth quoting in .hese Journals : M. Dufaure has, it is said, completed his report on the railroads, but the changes that will probably be deemed neces sary by the Committee will, scarcely allow its being presented to the Chamber of Deputies before the end of this week. General Baraguay d Hilliers, immediately previous to leaving Algiers, addressed an order of the day to the troops of the first division, in which, after expressing his acknowledgments for their good conduct, he adds that, under the able direction of the Governer-General, he would have been happy to con tinue to contribute with them towards the subjection of Algeria, and give new arid daily proofs of his devotion to France, if superior orders had net otherwise disposed. The Moniteur of the 11th publishes, - in its official part, a re port of the Minister of Public Instruction to the King, fol. lowed by an ordinance relative to the Preparatory Schools of Medicine and Pharmacy. A letter from Madrid of the 3d of April, in the Memorial Bordelais, of the 9th says :—" A proposal has just been made to abolish, and to put an end to, on the Ist January, 1842, all duties of customs in the interior of the kingdom, which only throw obstacles in the way of commerce, and are incompatible with the establishment of Custom-houses on the Northern frontier. It is said that Queen Isabella and the Court will leave Madrid on the 15th of April for Aran guez, where they will reside till June. Many fatuities are pre paring to go to the same place.

I did not second Mr. Brotherton in moving the adjourn ment of the House. The facts the these. Lord F. Egerton and Mr. Brotherton rose together ; the latter intending, as I had no doubt, to move' the adjournment of the House, it being then considerably past 12 o'clock. Neither of the Honourable Members giving way, I moved " That Mr. Brotherton be first heard." The Speaker said, " Who seconds the motion ?" upon which several Honourable Members said, "I do so, Sir." The motion I being regularly proposed and seconded, the Speaker called again, as he had done before, upon Lord F. Egerton to speak. I urged that my motion being proposed and seconded, ought to be put, but the Speaker declined to do so. lof course sub mitted to his authority, but on a subsequent occasion I ex plained to the House that I had frequently read in the Par liamentary proceedings of such a motion being made in the House, and that I had no reason, therefore, for believing I could be out of order. If I bad been so, I was quite ready to apologise to the House. I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, REGINALD BLEWITT. London, April 12, 1842.

SUMMARY OF NEWS AND Ptibitir 14`ptlitOlt. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. There is not much political news in the Paris journals of Monday. The Courrier Francais charges the-French Go vernment with a breach of faith in connexion with the census. It had been promised that no addition should be made to the patente tax this year, whereas, according to a petition from one of the departments, a considerable surcharge has already been laid en. It may be necessary to explain that the charge for the patente, the license (without which no person can ex ercise any trade in France) varies, in most cases, according to the amount of rents paid by the trader ; consequently the new assessment of property. which must arise from the census, will necessarily have the effect of increasing that charge in all cases where the previous returns were below what the occupant could be legally called upon to pay, whether as owner or tenant. In England, the license-tax is comparatively of small amount, only certain classes of traders, such as wine-merchants, auc tioneers, &c., being called upon to take out licenses ; but, in France, where the tax is imposed upon every trader, accord ing to he nature of his trade and the extent of his business, the sum derived from it forms a very important item of the pub lic revenue. The divisions in the Chamber of Deputies on the recent discussion having been decidedly favourable to the Ministry, several of the Opposition journals attempt to show that the majority is not indicative of the real strength of the Govern ment, and that if Ministers have carried their point as far as numbers are concerned, they have, nevertheless, lost ground in moral influence, all the argument and all the eloquence having been on the side of the Opposition. The Constitutionnel attributes the success of Ministers on the census question to the peculiar moment at which the dis cussion has taken place, viz., the eve of a general election, when, says this journal, all the Deputies who are not openly in the ranks of the Opposition, are so much under the influence of the Government, that they will not venture to display the same degree of independence as might be expected from them at another moment. The Toulonnais of the 7th inst. says Reports of dis armament are again current, and this time they do not appear to be without foundation. It is said that several ships of the line will be laid up in port, or kept in the roadstead, and amongst them are mentioned the Montebello, Souverain, Tri dent, Genereux, and Ville de Marseille ; so that we should have only nine ships of the line completely fitted out in the Mediterranean, and we have even reason to believe that it is intended to have only eight as a division of reserve, under the orders of a Rear-Admiral." The Observateur of Brussels states that the Earonrss Vandersmissen, wife of the General, is confined to her bed, in consequence of the severe mental agitation she has under gone. The same paper adds that the Countess Vander meer, mother of the General, is on her death-bed. For the last seven years this lady has been attacked by cancer, and about six or seven months ago, a few days after her son's arrest, she became dangerously ill. His condemnation to death was care fully concealed from her, but last week she became so much worse that her last hour appeared near. She called inces santly for her son, and steps being taken to obtain permission from the Minister of Justice for an interview, the General soon arrived, accompanied by four police officers in plain clothes. The meeting was most affecting; the General fell on his knees by the bed of his dying mother, and she, unable by herself tis raise her hands to give him her blessing and her eternal fare well, was obliged to be assisted by those who stood around. After an hour's interview, the General returned to prison. It is stated, in a letter from Berlin, that the palace of Prince Albrecht had been robbed of Treasury Bills to the amount of 10,000 Prussian crowns. PAR,Lx.A.WIEFFI'Art.Y. The Forged Exchequer Bills' Bill was read a second time in the House of Lords last night, after a few words from Lord Brougham and Lord Monteagle. In the Commons, Mr. Mark Blake and Mr. George Bankes were ordered to be taken into the custody of the Ser geant-at-Arms, for not being present in the House, to take their places on two Election C.mmittees, on which they had been chosen. The letter gentleman was in the course of the evening taken into custody. Mr. Cowper presunted a petition against the income tax from Hertford, according to notice, and moved that it do lie on the table. In the course of the debate Sir Robert Peel, though generally very engrossing, declined the honour of un dertaking to revise the despotic rule against receiving the petitions of the people, which he defended on Monday ; albeit, he was obliged to admit that it could not be maintained. The debate was adjourned till Friday to allow Lord F. Egerton to try his hand at tinkering up the hole which Sir Robert Peel and the Tories have made in their hypocrisy, letting in the light en their intentions to put an end to all liberties which stand in the way of their success. His Lordship is to propose a resolution confirming the people's right to petition by a standing order, God save the mark, of the Honourable House. In reply to Lord Ebrington, Mr. Gladstone stated that the duty on cyder, which has been lowered, and the duty on hops, which remains completely prohibitory, had been duly consi dered, we presume, by Mr. Gladstone, who is, of course, in timately acquainted with all the secrets of cyder and beer mak ing, from planting an apple tree and a hill of hops, till the bright beverage foams and sparkles in the tankard. Mr. Wason moved some resolutions to regulate the conduct of Counsel before Election Committees, but, after a short de bate, withdrew them. The debate on the Report on the income tax was again re newed, and occupied the House the chief pat t of the evening. At a few minutes before one it was again adjourned, contrary to the wish of Lord John Russell, who expected that it would have been brought to a close. Mr. Masterman, in a true Tory spirit, regretted the delay of a few nights— because commerce was suffering, while he and his party have delayed all settlement of the question for nine months, and have now brought it so before the public, that it never can he settled as Sir Robert Peel proposes. The two Houses of Parliament may pass his resolutions and his Bills, but the Houses of Parliament will find that it is as much beyond their power to settle these questions in the manner Sir Robert Peel proposes, as to drink up the Atlantic. The two Houses are no more omnipotent in morals than physics, and can no more alter the laws of right and wrong than the laws which govern the ebb and flow of the tide. Mr. Borthwick, in the course of the debate, not finding the House sufficiently attentive to his charming oration, moved that the debate be adjourned, in order to give Hon. Members time to grow calm and attentive. On the motion being put, " the Yeas were directed"—so says the Votes—to go forth to the new lobby. Mr. Borthwick was appointed one of the tellers for the Yeas, but there being no other Member to be a second teller, Mr. Speaker declared that the Noes had it. Mr. Borthwick therefore, like Colonel Sibthorp, could not find a seconder for his motion. It would be judicious in this delight.. ful pair, henceforth to play double for each other ; and they can then have the pleasure of counting en a division their own two noses. The House sat till One o'Clock. piTISLIC OPINION. The Herald says :—" We always read Lord Stanley's mos t successful speeches in the House of Commons with regret; if the Noble Lord would only give to the serious and en during concerns of the country the benefit of those huge facul ties which he throws away on party—even on the party to which we belong—he would be second to no man in Parlia ment. The material distinction between Sir Robert Peel and Lord Stanley is, that in the mind of the former the na tion and its interests predominate ; while party ever rises to the surface with the latter. Sir Robert Peel's most successful efforts are those which are the calmest ; Lord Stanley's triumphs are achieved through excitement." The Times remarks in a leading article, suggested by Sir R. Peel's proposed concession, on the subject of the right of pe titioning the House of Commons;—" We mitoh admire the frankness with which he has acknowledged the inexpediency— nay, impossibility, of enforcing a mere resolution on the House without a strong predominant opinion in its favour. And we the more hail this concession rn the part of the Right Hon. Baronet, because, much as we admire that firmness and self-re- liance which distinguish his course advantageously from that of his predecessors, we have been at times inclined to feel that he has somewhat overdone those valuable qualities, and proclaimed his own inflexibility in respect of sundry proposed details in a somewhat more arbitrary tone than was quite ne cessary or considerate towards the various interests which at present have united in its support. A strong Ministry is an advantage which we should be unwilling, were it but for its novelty, to depreciate. But there is such a thing as a parade of strength, unseemly in a Minister, and somewhat humiliating to his supporters, and which, as such, is apt somewhat to in terfere with its own reality." We quote the following from the Post:—" We look in vain for anything to put in competition with the bold, honest, and ex• tensive measure of the Government. The suggestions of the Opposition are nothing better than cavilling set up apparently to waste time. We grant that time might be well employed in discussion, but we deny that it is. The Opposition confesses that some great measure is necessary, and yet totally fails to suggest any such thing, or to promise that in compensation for the delay it will be able to do so at any future time." The Chronicle says of Lord Stanley's late speech in the House of Commons :—" His speech is, by implication, a powerful one against the new tariff. It demands a convincing reply from Sir Robert Peel. He ought not to allow it to pass unanswered. For himself, his reasoning had the same self- contradictoriness as that of his supporters. On Friday night he began with being eloquent on the necessity, and finished with being eloquent on the liberality. At first, he was fierce that oaosition had been raised on the ground of his having 'established no adequate necessity ;' and at last he was fierce at the cry of his 'throwing away money and losing revenue,' and making 'needless sacrifices.' Sir Robert Peel's ideal of a Finance Minister for the present emergency seems to be an original compound into one character of the generesity of Charles Surfiice with the . exactiveness of Sir Giles Overreach."

A vessel from Sydney has brought accounts from the various Australasian colonies, though not of later date than the meagre intelligence by the last overland mail, yet later than any which had been previously received direct. Trade at Sydney had not, it appeared, improved, the increasing importations of the principal articles of consumption forbidding any expectation that such would be the case fur some time to come. For in stance, on the 30th October, the stock of Rum was 266,939 gallons ; of Brandy, 210,556 gallons ; and Tobacco, 983,420 lbs.; while the delivery in the previous week had been 2,925 gallons of Rum, 1,823 gallons of Brandy, and 7,852 lbs. of Tobacco. These articles may be considered as forming a fair criterion of the stock compared with consumption. The districts in the neighbourhood of Sydney were suffering, some from drought, and others from aggressions by the natives. At the location in Peel's River, the blacks had been very troublesome, spearing cattle and burning sheep ; on one estate upwards of eleven hundred maiden ewes had been burnt by them, and at another the shepherd also had been killed by the party who had de stroyed the sheep. The whole of the extensive district of New England was suffering extreme distress from drought ; no rain having fallen for a considerable ,period, the water holes had become dry, and the cattle were perishing for want of food and water. Plains, of miles in extent, are described as being without a blade of grass, or bearing the slightest symptom of vegetation, and presenting an aridity of appearance almost wholly unexampled in New South Wales. A sale of Crown lands had been held at Hobart Town. The quantity sold was 27,652 acres, which produced 14,7001., or an average of 10s. 841. per acre, the lowest average of any sale which had hitherto taken place. The Derwent Bank had re solved to discontinue being a bank of issue after the commence. merit of the present year, and to confine itself to making advances on mortgages, &c., with an increased capital. The Governor of New South Wales was making a visitation of the several colonies, and had arrived at Port Phillip.

Carter, Esq., Coroner for Surrey, on the body of Emma Edmonds, 19 years of age, who was found drowned in the Thames. Ann Huxtable deposed she was in the service of Mr. Grover, 44, Lower Belgrave-place, The deceased had been her fellow-servant. On Thursday three weeks, about nine o'clock in the morning, the deceased left her master's house for the purpose of going to a neighbour inn'' apothecary's for some m e di c i ne , s h e comp l a i n i ng of a pa i n in her head. She never returned; and notwithstanding every inquiry had been set on foot by Mr. Grover, no tidings were heard of her until she was found in the river. Witness could give no other reason, than she supposed she had destroyed her self, as she (deceased) said she would do, if she thought the earthquake, at that time spoken of, should come to pass. Other evidence was adduced to show that there was nothing likely to have caused the deceased to commit suicide, other than the dread of the late foolish prediction relative to the earth quake. The Jury returned a verdict of Found Drowned. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.—The opera of Lucia di Lammermoor was performed again at this theatre last night. Persiani's singing is remarked to be more finished in its execution than last season, and her grand duet with Ron coni in the second act won her great applause. Guasco's second appearance as Edgardo was better than his first. Her Majesty was not present. The Queen Dowager's box was oc cupied by a party, including the Earl of Cawdor. ELECTION COMMITTEES. (THIS DA Y.) IPSWICH. The Committee appointed to try the petition against the return of Members for this borough, at the late election, met this morning at 11 o'clock. The Committee was composed as follows :—Mr. J. Parker, Mr. G. Darby, Mr. H. M. Tuite, Sir W. L. Young, Mr. .1. Heathcoat, the Hon. General Lygon, and Mr. Pakington, Chairman. The Counsel for the sitting Members, were Mr. Hill, Mr. C. Phillips ; the Counsel for the petitioners, w ere Mr. Austen Mr. Talbot, and Mr. Rodwell. • The Committee, immediately after they had met, came to three resolutions, to the effect :—I st. That Counsel should not be allowed to go into any matters not referred to in their open ing statements, without special permission ; 2d. the Committee expected that, with respect to cases of bribery, with which the sitting Members or their agents might be charged, Counsel for the petitioners would immediately state the names of the elec tors bribed, and of the parties who had bribed them, as well as in cases of a charge of treating that they would state each case ; 3d. that if costs were demar.ded by either party, the aitplica tion should be made immediately after the decision which had given rise to the application. Mr. A usrxx, in opening the case for the petitioners, stated that the petition against the return of the sitting Members went on the grounds of bribery and corruption. The nomina tion for the election took place on the Ist of July, and the polling on the day following. The Members, as declared by the Returning Officer, were—for Mr. Wason, 659 ; for Mr. Rennie, 657 ; for Mr. Kelly, 611 ; and for Mr. Herries, 604. Messrs. Wason and Rennie were, of course, declared to have been duly elected. It appeared that the managers of the election for the sitting Members had distributed themselves in several parts of the town, having sat occasionally at the King's Head, at a warehouse belonging to a Mr. May, and at a public-house called " The Standard," as well as at other places. Among those managers were Mr. Samson, a member of the Town Council, two brothers of the name of May, persons of the names of Tunmer, Enser, Mulley, Cooke, Burrowes, and others. It would be shown that the agents of the sitting Members had been guilty of bribery on the most extensive scale. The Learned Counsel then stated various cases of bribery, which he should be ready to substantiate by evidence. A voter of the name of William Brown had come down from London for the purpose of voting for Messrs. Kelly and Herries; but he had received at . the King's Head 151. on condition that he should vote for the sitting Members, for whom he had accord ingly voted. Mr. Samson bribed anuther voter of the name of Joseph Keenes, to whom he had paid the sum of 5/. imme diately after the election. William Smith, another voter, was paid Si. for his vote by Mr. Alulley. A person of the name of Smith gave 15/. to Mr. Enser for the purpose of bribing two voters of the names of Scarlett. Emanuel Baxter received 20/. from Mr. Cook for his vote. The Learned Counsel stated several other cases of the same kind. There was a person of the name of Thurnston in the borough, one of the managers of the election for the sitting Members, who had been particularly active in bribing the voters ; in fact, he had acted as a sort of bribery-broker, and had received a per tentage for each voter whom he had succeeded in corrupting. The bribery was so exten sive. and so Hotorious, that it war not denied by Mr. Wason himself, who, in a speech which he addressed to a number of the inhabitants of the borough admitted that Smith, of the Suffolk Hotel, had bribed to a large amount. But there could be no doubt that the parties bribing had acted as the agents of the sitting Members at the election : and in any case the bribery was of so extensive a kind that it would necessarily invalidate the return. It appeared that previous to the election Mr. Wason had deposited 3,000/. with the Messrs. Alexander and Company, the leading bankers of the borough ; and Sir. Wason had been heard to say that he should not lose his election for want of money. Again, it would be shown in evidence that on the evening before the election Smith, of the Suffolk Hotel, had told Mr. Wason that he had offered a bribe of 251. to a voter of the name of Smith, who was then present, and who had therefore promised to vote for Mr. Wason ; that gentleman, thereupon, stepped out of his carriage, and shook hands with the voter. The Learned Gen tleman concluded by stating that he would prove by evidence these and other cases of corruption equally flagrant. The poll-book having been put in evidence by the returning officer, Mr. John May was called as a witness by Counsel for the petitioners. The witness, was under examin a ti on a t th e h our at which we went to press. THE MURDER AT ROEHAMPTON. (THIS DAY-BY EXPRESS.) The inquiry was resumed to-day, before the Coroner and Jury, at the Angel Inn, Roehampton, at two o'clock. As the proceedings drew to a close, the public interest in the result seemed to increase. The room was crowded with persons of all ages and conditions. Richard Golding,' 31, said I went on Saturday to 18, South-street, Manchester-square, with Inspector Busain of this division. I was shown into the kitchen occupied by Mrs. Good. I found a piece of blue silk and a dark piece of cotton. (They were produced, and corresponded with the colour and fitbric of the poor woman's bonnet and gown already identified.) I then went to Susan Butcher's, 18. Charlotte-place, Woolwich, who handed me the bag I now produce. The bag was empty. She stated she had been presented the bag by Daniel Good. Mary-Anne Clarke re-examined—l made Mrs. Good's bonnet ; but it has been re-shaped since. lam sure it is the same silk put on a fresh shape. The fragment of silk produced is the piece I had left after making the gown. I was present last Saturday when the search was made in her room by the constable. It was I noticed the siik. I picked it up and gave it to him. I know it is the same bit of silk, because I gave it into Mrs. Good's possession when I had done with it. CORONER.—But how can you be certain of it ? Wit ness—The silk was mildewed—so is this. I also know it by the cut of it, for it was first made into a bow for her bonnet though not used afterwards. The Inspector now came forward, and said he could produce a person who had that morning found a piece of flesh in -a place adjoining the Richmond -road. The flesh was taken to Dr. Shillito's, who said it was part of a human body. _ _ The CORONER said there would be no use in producing it unless it could be proved to have belonged to the de ceased. Have you got Good in custody yet ? Inspec tor—l have not, Sir. Daniel Good, Jun., re-examined—My mother used to have several bags. I remember a black •one and a velvet one. She had one for her handkerchief and one for her money. I have seen the bag now produced, and I know it was her's. I heard her say, " Father gave it to her," and that he said he picked it up. [The verdict is expected to be delivered in about an hour.] INSOLVENT COURT-(THIS DAY) The Court was occupied during the day in hearing applica ions fGr bail, in which there was no feature of general interest. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL.-(THIS DAY.) The cases this morning at this C9urt were of trifling import ance, possessing no feature whatever of public interest. UNION HALL.-(THIS DAY.) A farmer, named Hudson, was charged with intoxication. He was found lying insensibly drunk in the new Dover-road, adjacent to a street inhabited by the worst of characters. When taken on the stretcher to the station, 1311. in notes ar.d sovereigns were found in his possession, which it was a miracle he had not been robbed of. He was fined ss. for drunkenness, and he gave the policeman a sovereign. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. (RECEIVED THIS DAY.) NEWMARKET CRAVEN MEETING —MONDAY NIGHT. To the account of the races forwarded from the heath, we have nothing to add, but that they brought poor fields, and afforded very indifferent sport.

On Monday last he was at 1,000 to 15. Eleus gave way in consequence of this movement, and closed at a fall of nearly 100 per cent on last Thursday's betting.

ROBBERY AT - THE LATE MAR QUIS OF HERTFORD'S , The following is a more detailed account of the exansintl i ; at Bow-street, which appeared i n Th e S un yesterday, of foreign valet of the late Marquis of Hertford : Mr. Phillips and Mr. Bodkin aeared as counsel , and 31r• Hobler as solicitor for the prosecution; and Mr. Flower for the prisoner. The prisoner, Nicholas Suisse, underwent a private oxstn i. nation at this Court on Tuesday, sth instant, but there 11 . 11 only such evidence taken as to authorise the sitting AV . trate to order the prisoner to be remanded. Mr. Phillips now applied to have the evidence taken on that occasion read over, which was as follows : " Mr. Robert Hare, clerk in Messrs. Coutts' banking-h° 1 2 5 2 1 produced two cheques drawn by the late Marquis, one of sol _ was for the sum of 3,0001., dated Ist February, and the o ther for 700/., dated the 9th February. The first was p re sented u d the prisoner on the day it was dated, arid witness paid h im ,, Bank notes and gold. The notes were for 3001. each, num b , 54,369,54,370, 53,431, and bearing the same date ; 11 for each, numbered 05,752 to 95,761 consecutively and another numbered 88,443; 6001. in 30 20/., numbered 2,155 to 2, 184 6 ;7,, secutively ; and 350/. in 70 51. notes, nun..bered 18 650 consecutively, and 18,555 to 18,574 cunsecutively, n."; gether with 50/. in gold, making in all 3,000 i On the ' l O February the prisoner presented the other chequc, the 412° 4, of which he paid him with one note for 5001. numbered B,e sc. another 100/. in five 201. notes numbered 4,545 to 4, 549 ,, e 164 cutively, 1001. in ten 10/. notes, numbered 64,475 tOm, o consecutively, which made up the amount in question. """...",d knew the prisoner well, having on many previous occasions r" him money on the late Marquis of Hertford's account. 01 Mr. FLOWER—The chequ e s wer e pr ese nted in the usu &1 over the counter ? Wiatess—Yes ; and being acquainted with the prisuu r T4 Person as well as with his Lordship's hand-writing, 1 reach paid the amount of them. Mr. Thomas Graham, a stock-broker, residing at 87, S t James's -street, said he knew the prisoner, having occasioo w 010.7 transacted business for him. Witness received from bite 0 the 21st Febnary notes, with which, according to direet ip _ ot he purchased stoe.k amounting to 2,000/., but be coul.Poto say if the notes produced were the same, for he paiti them l asi , his bankers, Messrs. Jone: ; Loyd. and Co., on the 'vi le of by whom he always understoe, -1 the description and nimih r notes were taken. Witness also bought stock in the lioyern preceding this transaction for the prisoner. larg e . Mr. JARDINE—Do you know if they were for - amount? Witness—Yes; to something very considerabl a b w Mr. John Hoyle, clerk to Messrs. Jones, Loyd, and oil having referred to a book, found that on the 21st Fehr .the there was 'a payment, amounting to 2,0001., made to . tt os house on account of Mr. Graham, whose name was write on one of the notes produced. It was the business of o e i be clerk to take the numbers after witness had pissed there I° oo - ledger-keeper. Ther e a pp eare d i n th e b oo k a 500/. note b l r sii bered 8,986, a 300/. numbered 54,370, 1001. notes nuzl.„ of 95,758, 74,742:95,759, and oth ers corres p on di ng w ith sew" the numbers mentioned by the last witness. t his ''' Mr. Graham identified his signatu r e o n the note bear' name. Mr. Phillips said the prisoner had made a certain stsle,t e ja of great importance, which it was f a i r hi s l ega l a dvisers be put in possession of, but in the present stage of the Frar ings he considered it necessary for the ends of justice to, jo hold it, particularly as there were at p resen t i nqu iries ntulu l b l of a foreign country, the result of whi c h wou ld tu r n out le, cor the greatest importance. Under suc h c i rcums tances b%er sidercd it his duty to apply to the C our t t o h a ve the prP - 0 ,. remanded, fur the amount covered with the transact' 'II te d,' absolutely incredible; but before his application was g r he hoped there would be no objection on the part of the P' e gl to allow two small boxes, in the possession of the effie er ‘' which were found in the prisoner's room, to be broken 0f.7. their contents might lead to important discoveries. The boxes were accordingly forced ope n .in the preen:Vl! the prisoner. One of them proved to be a dressing-eas e ' ll furnished ; and the other contained a quantity of trinkell' h i c it parently intended for a lady, with two l e tt ers , ne ither of If"' related to the charge. ftni t4 The prisoner was finally remanded. Mr. J ARDI NZ r e .,keY . to accept of bail, and having directed th a t th e b o xes sh"" sealed up, the prisoner was removed from the bar. BO IS.
