We have to regret that the other demands on our co lumn; will not allow us to insert in extenso an account, which has been forwarded to us from the office of the Leeds Times, of a meeting of the shopkeepers held in that borough on Wednesday last. It is, however, much too important for us wholly to omit it in the present state of the country, and we therefore lay an abridge ment of it in this place before our readers. The requisition for calling the meeting was signed by upwards of 200 respectable tradesmen of all parties and Polities, and all sects in religion. The meeting was held under the auspices of the Mayor, and is said to have con sisted of not less than 800 persons. Not a murmur of dissent was uttered at any of the statements, and not a hand was held up in opposition to any of the resolutions. What was said, therefore, and what was done, may be con sider3d as an index to public opinion at Leeds, to which the respectable middle classes testify. The first resolution expressed alarm, the alarm of the balk of the inhabitants of Leeds, at " the present un paralleled distress and suffering," particularly "in the where not less tha n 4,000 families township of Leeds, are receiving parochial relief, mid all the other town ships of the borough are in an equally distressed con dition." It also affirms that the number of paupers is alarmingly on the increase. The second resolution sets forth, that while rates are on the increase, praperty is diminishing ; that many persons have been degraded front affluence to poverty; and that unless some remedy be found, they entertain the. most serious apprehensions for the continuance of public peace and order. They beseech the Legislature to make a searching inquiry into the cause or' this state of things. for which they vou:111; and they agree to memorialise her Majesty and petition the Parliament. If by accident a railway carriage is upset, or a great fire turns down a great number of houses, the ready sympathy our people feel for the sufferers, the zeal they display in relieving them, and in providing securities against such future calamities, is worthy of all praise ; and will they feel less sympathy, be loss zealous to give relief, when they learn that hundreds and thousands of their countrymen are slowly perishing of :',a nine, and great cities are going to waste and ruin? Leeds, said Mr. WHITEIIEAD, is IiONV what Stockport was 13 months ago, and in about the same time hence Lecci-; will prole bly be NVlint Stockport now is, little better than a wilderness. So we see town after town, learning, th e s ea t s the seats of our arts, the seats of - our. of our science—for neither art, nor learning, nor science, except the art of agriculture, is, as the rule, to be found in our rural districts —going to decay. If persons in the country require to build a good house, they come to the towns for a plan and for the workmen. But the ruin which overwhelms them will soon extend to the other parts of the empire, which derives its prosperity from their prosperity ; and it is not therefore prudent, it is not wisely selfish, it is not kindly, not patriotic, not Chris tian-like, to know that such dreadful calamities are slowly creeping over our towns, and not be as zealous to arrest the march of the evil as to prevent a conflagration or the overturning of a railway carriage. _ _ _ As to the proofs which the men of Leeds bring for ward of this slow but certain and deadly decay, they say that the present depression has existed for more than three years, and is getting worse and worse. " Where 166 gigs," says Mr. AVENS, cloth finisher, '• were for merly at work, giving employment and dood wages to a large number of hands, there are now only 20 working full time, 42 working short time, and 104 standing alto gether idle.' Mr. HOL3IES, a linendraper, declares that of all the ordinary articles of clothing, not connected with fashions, but garments that are supposed to be ne cessary, such as no person will if possible go without— such as the commonest young women in the factories think must be worn for decency or comfort—the sale is not a tithe now of what it was two years ago. This greatly diminished sale has accompanied, which is very r.unarkable, a greatly . diminished price. The di minished sales of the drapers tell of course on the manufacturers, and the sum laid out with a Manchester house had fallen from 3181. to 196/. But that is only a specimen of what is going on in all branches of business ; and as poverty assails one town and one ma nufacture, the ruin of another becomes swifter and more certain. From Stockport it extends to Leeds, from Leeds it goes back. to Manchester. from Manchester it c nnes to London, and must now be felt, we have no doubt, by those tradesmen in the metropolis who were wont to supply . Leeds and Manchester with luxuries. Other specimens of decay we find in the facts that one twister bootmaker, all whose expenses remai❑ the same, except the number of workmen he employs, was doing basiuess in 1839 to the amount of 791. per week; in 1840, 75/. per week ; in 1241, 47/. per week • and, in 1842, 40/. showing a gradual falling off of nearly one-half in four years. This an index to the general state of the town, and it was positively stated that the most industrious and most frugal tradesmen found it difficult to keep their ' establishments! on fOot. Amongst' the second class of shopkeepers, residing in the outskirts of the town and the out-township, it is stated that not less than four hundred failures had taken place during the last five years, and not one had retired from business with a competency. Of course with increasing distress, sick ness has•increased, and the "Benevolent, or Strangers' Friend, Society," which affords relief to sickness alone, had in .January, May, and June, relieved in 1837, 403, and in 1842, 606 ; thus showing a very considerable increase in the number of cases relieved this year. Independently of the great increase in the number of actual paupers, no longer consisting of the aged and.the sickly, but partly of able-bodied men, unable to get work, the money expended in the casual relief has in crea.t.ed from,99/. in the week ending June 25, 1841, to 2351. in the corresponding week of 1842. We cannot be surprised 'that the people of Leeds, whose resources are-so rapidly diminishing, and whose outgoings for the poor, and for the State, are so rapidly increasing, should' feel alarmed, and should anxiously cry to the Parlia ment, which inflicts these monstrous evils on them, .for help and relief. The length and the importance of the debate on Mr. WALLACE'S motion, which occupied the House of Commons almost the whole evening, precludes us from now making any remarks on it. We must content ourselves with saying that it deserves the attention of the country. Sir ROBERT PEEL'S old' Tory threat of maintaining peace by the sword; will now, we apprehend, be found as impotent as to make it is unwise. When the community is in danger from legis lative fraud, courtly words of flattery will not save it. Mr. GALLY KNIGHT brought the subject of the tyran nical candy-et of the Emperor of RUSSIA towards Poland before the House of Commons cn Thursday by moving for c Ties of certain ukases issued by the EMPEROR in Sep tember, 1841, for administering the affairs of that deepipwronged nation. The Hon. Gentleman grounded our right to- interfere for the protection of the Poles, upon the Treaty of Vienna, which had been grossly violated by the reigning Sovereign of Russia. The mo tion was seconded by Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, and sup ported by Mr. IIuME, Mr. MILNEs, Mr. P. M. STEWART, Lord SANDON, Mr. SHIEL, Mr. J. S. WORTLEY, and Mr. P. Ilowsnp, who all deplored the merciless policy adopted by the EMPEROR towards his Polish subjects. But by far the most important speech delivered on this occasion was made by Sir ROBERT PEEL, who at once agreed to the motion. He, too, protested against the conduct a Russia towards Poland, which he stigma tized as being as foolish as it was wicked. Ile stated that at present there was the most cordial friendship between Russia and England, and that its continuance was for the interest of both, as well as necessary to the peace of the world. She had withdrawn her agents from the north-west frontier of India, and was acting in concert with. England in Persia. Nevertheless, he felt bound, as the head of the British Government, to de nounce as unwise, illiberal, and unjust, the policy of Russia towards Poland. The Government of this country felt deep sympathy for the gallant and enlightened peo ple of Poland; and he trusted that the EMPEROR, upon finding that this sympathy was participated in by the people of England, France, Spain, and even Prussia, would consult his own glory atitk Vle true interests of Russia by ameliorating their. condition. These senti ments were loudly cheered by the House, and n ill afford great satisfaction to the country. That they will mate rially influence the future proceedings of the Russian Government 'we have not the smallest doubt. Were the people and the Press of Franc:, instead of foolishly quarrelling with us, to co-operate with England in firmly, steadily, but peaceably insisting upon the revo cation of the ukases for abolishing the language and the mligion of Poland, as by the treaty of Vienna they' are bound to do, there is not the least doubt but. that the EMPEROR would revoke them. The time is past for attempting tto save Poland by .an_ ap peal to . arms. She - must henceforth work her own redemption. 'All the support which we can now give her, people is sympathy for their suffer ings. Of her ultimate resuscitation *e entertain the most confident hope. The history of the world presents no instance of the peaceful extinction of a nation so free, so powerful, and so enlightened as Poland. She may disappear for a time front the map of Europe, but only to re-appear more powerful than ever. We have received several letters from highly re spectuble correspondents relative to the wicked and unfortunate youth FRANCIS, now under sentence of death for attempting the life of her MAJESTY. The crowded state of our columns prevents us from giving them insertion, which we the more regret as they all, with out a single exception, cry out against the execution of the wretched criminal. We implore the Government to re flect well upon the consequences which may follow the taking the life of this poor wretch. We have received some scores of letters relative to his crime, many of them from medical and military gentlemen, all agreeing in the opinion first expressed by us, that the pistol contained no other substance than a little powder. Now, should ' this conviction hereafter take place in the humane and Christian mind of her MAJESTY, with what horror would she not regard the persons who advised his execution ? They consult not the peace of her MAJESTY'S conscience hereafter, who now advocate the execution of this mise rable offender. Spare his life, but send him out of the country, to repent his guilt, for the remainder of his existence. Let this be done without noise or parade, and let him never more be heard of, and we will answer that his example will do more to deter others from imitating his crime than if he were hung in chains above the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral—a spectacle of horror for all London. We .have received the whole of the French Jour nal. The Right-of-Search question is again re vived, and nothing is talked of by the Oppo sition Journals but the insolence of England, and the scandalous conduct of her officers and men on the African station. They aro now for abolishing the right of search altogether —or, in other words, reestablishing the slave trade in all i.s unmi tigated horrors. The King of the Netherlands has just presented Admiral Dupctit-Thouars with the Order of the Lion, as a mark of his satisfaction at the Admiral's work, entitled " Voyage Autour du Monde," of which a copy had been presented to him by the author. A Conservatory of Music is to be founded at Berlin under the direction of 11. Felix Mendelssohn. The King, it is said, has signified his intention of granting 15,000 crowns a r to this establishment. The annual extraordinary meeting of the Societe Geo? °P igne de France will be held this year at Ai x , i n t h e Bouches-du- Rhone, a region which presents vast and curious resources for its scientific researches: It will commence on the 4th, and terminate on the 15th September. The Moniteur publishes the official returns of eeaa e rrni. ed i a hht m io po hae r ver b e s er into France for the first five m onths of the present y colonial isagc produce reralincr . w e l e , , he pa i r rnp particularly in i c n ot e to o n ffee fr , o e rn o eA% exceeded by 29,000 tons the amount of the corresponding period of the last year, and there has been nearly the same augm en t,. tioa .in the imports of wool. The imports of silk have on the er,ntrary fallen off. The most remarkable increase is in iron and coals, as will appear from the following comparative aceaunt of the imports for the first five months of the last five years, viz., iron, 11338, 6,951 tons; lea, 7,521 tons; 1840, 5.286 tons ;1841, 10,108 tons ; 1842, 13,489 tons. Coals, 1838, 477,528 tons ; 18.39, 492,863 tons ; 1840, 498,118 tons ; 1841, 600,732 tons ; 1842, 651,630 tons. There has been a corre sponding rise in the imports of lead, tin, indigo, and other articles necessary in manufactures. Notwithstanding the in crease in the amount of the imports of colonial sugar, the con sumption of beet-root sugar has also increased. On the -Ist instant the quantity made amounted to 30 millions of kilo grammes, of which 27 millions had been consumed, which is nearly 30 per cent. more than in the corresponding period of the last year.

THE CONNECTING LINK OF MEN.—A sagacious writer in the Times said yesterday, that "it is a mischievous doctrine that the exact sciences form a connecting link between men of all nations and ages." The exact science is only another phrase for our knowledge of the external world. Astronomy, for example, is one of the exact sciences ; Geography is another. Now if there be any link which connects men of all nations and age=, it is surely the common knowledge of the planet we inhabit in common, and still more the knowledge of the sun, the moon, and the starry orbs, which all the gene rations of men have beheld, in all time and in all place. The externalworld is the connecting link between all human beings, and the exact sciences, which treat a part of that, external world, have as good a right to come in fur a share of the honour, if it be an honour, as any peculiar doctrine which has been known only for a short period, and of which the knowledge is confined to a limited space. We were not before aware that the satire of the Times against the British constitution was written with the gall of bigotry. ,1 41177 lii:Siait 4 • - • , • • k 2. ` A t t. - t4 • • " „frit, 0 , ..n M r V titg _•'Z Amu THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY MORNING, JULY 2, 1842. SUMMARY OF NEWS AND tilittlit ®pinion. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. Several of the French journals reply to the article of the Debuts on the report of the Captain of the Deux Scours. In their repliei they repeat most of the arguments which they had already so repeatedly used, but the Constitutionnel and the Ceurrier liancais both declare, in allusion to the inference of the Debuts, that the Opposition journals would at once in volve France in a war with England on the subject of the right of search, and without investigaion as to the truth of the charges which have been brought against that country of in solence and outrage to the French flag, that they neither con template nor desire war. The Constitutionnel says it requires only that treaties so injurious to the honour and interests of France, as it describes those for the right of search to be, should he annulled or very much modified ; and the Courtier Francais observes that it is very far from being desirous cf a vain effusion of blood, and only demands that the French naval force for the protection tit trade should be increased. The Courtier de Lyon gives an account of a terrible whirl wind on the 24th instant, at and in the environs of Chauffailes, in the Saone-et-Loire, which unroofed most of the houses of the town, scattering the tiles and slates like so many feathers, and mak ng the tall chimney of a steam-engine bend like a reed. In its course it destroyed the crops and vegetation to a vast extent, dilapidated whole forests, and rooted up many single trees. Some large wallnut trees were carried two hundred yards from the spot where they grew. At Chauffailes, one man was killed; at Saint-Ygny de Roche, four ; and, at Coub lan, nine persons perished. The whole country was covered with wreck and ruin of every description. The Ecclesiastical Seminary at Tarbes, in the Hautes Pyrenees, was struck by lightning on the 22d instant, anti sus tained considerable damage, and, it is believed, would have suffered much more severely, had not the electric fluid been diverted from its course by the attraction of a quantity'of iron tools which were plated in one of the angles of the build. ing. By the same storm the communes of Andrest, arro vines, and Pouyastruc, sustained severe loss, and in the latter a man and a youth, employed in getting some hay into a barn, were both killed. According to the second edition of the Almanack of the Bureau of Longituites, which has recently been published, the actual population of France amounts to 33,540,000 souls, the births in 1839 amounted to 957,000, the deaths to 780,600, and the marriages to 266,890. The deaths in Paris for 1840 were 28,294, of which number 281 were exposed at the Morgue. The Gazette de Flandre et d' Artois gives the following:— " The Custom-hou, , e officers of Boulogne have just made a seizure of a voluminous correspondence, said to have been left by Prince Louis, now confined at Ham, in England, when he set out on his expedition to Boulogne. It is added, that the depositary being dead, his representatives thought it right to send the letters to France." The Correspondent of Nuremberg of the 25th ult. an nounces several changes in the Austrian army ; Count Nugent is to replace Count de Rothkirch at Gratz; Prince 'Vasa is appointed Commandant at Brunn. Colonel Holier has been sent to Aram, with full powers to settle the disputes between the Croatians and Hungarians. The Madrid Patriota of the 21st contains the following arficle :—" We stated on Friday, in opposition to all the jour nals, that propositions had been made for the first aeries of the loan of 160,000,000 reals, and our statement was perfectly cos. rect. To-day three propositions were presented, one for 20,000,000, at 19 per cent. discount ; another for 5,060,01.0, at the same discount ; and a third, made by the Bank of San Fernando, f..r 30,000,000, at 18 per cent. discount. Those three propositions have been submitted to the Minister of Finance by the Director of the Treasury." PARLIAMENTARY. The House of LordsnereTy transacted some business ye: ter day. Lord Campbell said that he had discovered that the Law of Evidence was the same in England and in Scotland, and he therefore sh,uld bring in no Bill on the subject. Lord John Russell's Bribery Bill was in the Commons objected to by the Solicitor-General, and at his suggestion the Noble Lord agreed to refer it to a Select Committee. Mr. Wallace moved his resolutions on the state of the country, and requesting her Majesty not to prorogue Parliament till measures of relief had been adopted, aid that important subject nearly filled up the evening.

The fraud of yesterday continues to excite much attention among the parties connected with the Stock Exchange, and has attracted some notice in the mercantile community generally. The loss sustained by it has been calculated at about eight thousand pounds, which, should the Commit tee not annul the bargains, will have to be borne chiefly by jobbers. In consequence of these transactions, a large amount of differences which ought, in due course, to have been paid yesterday, remain still unsettled, and it is thought that many defaulters will ultimately be declared. It is reported that the Committee are determined thoroughly to in vestigate the business, and it is to be hoped that no wish to screen the offenders will be allowed to interfere with the richly merited exposure. This ettempted swindle has done more than anything which has occurred for many years to deter parties, unxannecred with such dealings, from entering into them, and will, very pro bably, bring about the desirable event of annihilating the sys tem of time bargains in the bonds of insolvent or non paying States. It also forms an excellent illustration to what has been freqUently written on the subject, and goes far to prove that they are in reality flouting but gambling. Hari the report been correct, it was known that the house at New, Orleans had scarcely any con nexion with that here, and should therefore have had no effect on the stock. Or even admitting that the firm in London had suspended, the ultimate loss to the bondholders could not by possibilLty have exceeded 24 per cent., and yet the quotations were driven down no less than six per cent. The decline also shows the estimation in which these foreign Governments are really held, when the solvency of a mere agent is considered to be of more importance than the stability of the Executive. Lys xaeout COTTON MARKET, JUNE 30.—The market continues in the same dull state as heretofore, but without any change in prices. Cotton is very fairly offered for sale ; holders, however, do not press their stocks on the market so as to cause a decline on previous rates. The business to-day amounts to about 3,500 bales.

HE LATE EARTHQUAKE AT ST. DOMINGO.— REMARKABLE CIRCUMSTANCE.-It is very remarkable, and no less remarkable than true, that, on the 7th of May, at 28 minutes past 12 in the morning, the barometer stood at 29.000 inches, wind west-south-west, strong breezes and clear weather; at 8, morning, it was 28.92; at noon, 28.81 ; and at 40 minutes past 12, afternoon, it was 28.80, wind south, light airs with rain; at 4, afternoon, it was 28.76, which was the day that the great earthquake occurred in St. Domingo. By a letter from Culloden House, we observe that the barometer on that day, at 9in the morning, stood at 28 72 ; and at 9in the evening, 28.68. It is recorded in history, that, during the earthquake at Lisbon, in the year 1755, Loch Tay, or some of the other lochs, was affected by it ;if the barometer may be affected at this distance from St. Domingo. It is said that earthquakes generally have an effect upon the tides ; such was hot the cake here (Dundee) on that day, nor for several days afterwards. We shall see what the weather prophets say to this. Zadkiel predicted sudden earthquakes in Nay.—Dundee Paper. • IRE PREMIER AND THE COLONIAL SECRETARY. —The absence of Lard Stanley from the grand banquet given to the Ministry by the Goldsmiths' Company, on Wednesday evening, was remarked as an additional proof of the estrange ment which still exists between these high functionaries. The appearance and manner of Sir Robert Peel were also noticed— the former as betraying a mind ill at ease, and the latter as constrained and embarrassed. His speech was " stale, flat, and unprofitable ;" and tended nothing to increase the confidence of, or even to impart a momentary stimulus to, the party which regards him as its head. HANOVER, JUNE 24.—The Budget is ready, and the taxes granted. It is said, however, that the labours of the Estates are by no means terminated, and that the Government intends to lay before the Chambers several very important pro posals. As the Chambers have been sitting for some months, it may be imagined that the members are longing for some re laxation, and that the prolongation of the session, if it should really take place, n ill be as unwelcome as unexpected. EAST PRUSSIA, JUNE 20.—Very rigorous orders respecting the censorship, especially,against the Konigsburgh Gazette, have been received here • and an article in that Journal relative to the affairs of the provinces, (Mr. Von Schou's retirement from the public service) has not obtained imprimatur. - BRUSSELS, JUNE 29.—Two of the sons of Count Mensdorf have already set out for Germany. The Count and the rest of his family will set out on Thursday. his Highness the Prince of La four- and Taxis, Postmaster-General of Germany, has arrived at Liege, on his way to Brussels. Mr. Dechamp the new Governor of Luxemburg, has just set out for that province. ltichard Thornton, Esq., one of the Governprs of Christ's Hospital, has presented to that institution the muni ficent sum of 2,0001. '1 hree per Cent. Consols, being the amount of the verdict obtained by him in the Gurney affair, with upwards of 6001. added from his own purse to complete the purchase. SACRED HARMONIC SOCIVTY, EXETER HALL.— It gives us singular pleasure to observe that the cause of the " Distressed Manufacturers" is about to be pleaded with the powers of music, on Friday evening next, the Bth of July, by the above Society. Ilandel's ruble "Messiah" is the liece se lected for the occasion, and when the thrilling passages which it contains come to be performed by a band end chorus of 500 performers, as will be the case, there will be few hearts, we imagine, but will be urged to fulfil in its widest meaning, that law of charity, which the Divine Master, whom the oratorio celebrates, pronounced as the most acceptable virtue in our species. A deputation consisting of six manufacturers, en gaged in various departments of the Nottingham trade, are about to proceed to London, to join the National Conference, which assembles on Tuesday next, the sth instant, having for their object the enforcing upon the Ministers and Parliament, the absolute necessity of their rendering some immediate and effectual relief to the manufacturing districts of this country, which are now reduced, by the present impolitic and unjust restrictions upon commerce, to a state of &stress which en dangers the security of property and the safety of the State. —We understand that deputations are likewise appointed from Derby and Ilkestone, for the same purpose.—Notanyham Review. THE CONVICT FRANCIS.—Sir James Graham on Thursday afternoon hail a long interview, at the House of Lords, with Lord C.: Justice '1 indal, Mr. Justice Patteson, and Mr. Baron Gurney, tLe presiding Judges on the trial of Francis, when, we understand, the fate of this wretched convict was finaFy determined; but it is not yet publicly known. RANGE or QUARTERS OF THE HOUSEHOLD CAVALRY BRIGADE —The let Regiment of Life Guards re moved to Hyde Park Barracks yesterday ; their vs ed quarters will be filled by the Royal Horse Guards (Blue), trim Windsor; while the 2d Regiment take up the Windsor duties to relieve them. ----- A French Government steamer, to be called the Corse, of 150 horse-power, i 4 now building at Havre. It is to be fitted up on the Archimedes principle, instead of the usual paddles. The Viscount de 1 1 1ontaignac, a Lieutenant in the navy, is to bare .11,e command. The engine will come from England. ANOTHER DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN BERMONDSEY. —Between twelve and one o'clock yesterday, another de structive fire broke out in Bermondsey, at the howe of Mr. Neal, No. 16, Bermondsey -street, an extensive potatoe sales man. It was will great difficulty the penons in the house could effect their escape, and Mr. Neal was dragged out nearly suffocated. The entire house was soon in a blaze, and shortly after was reduced to a h e ap o f ru in s . Not a p ar ti c l e o f pro ) erty of any description was saved. The loss sustained by Mr. Neal is about 2,000/. He is, however, insured. The houses adjoining on either side are also much damaged. The the is supposed to have arisen from an escape of gas. SUDDEN DELTII.—Mr. Ross, merchant, Rosehall, Suthcrlandshire, died very suddenly on Saturday, the 18th instant, having, the day previous, made arrangements, or contractest, as it is called in the country, to be married to a respeetehle female-in the heighbourbeetl,..-/Tiverseee Cow*, EXTRAORDINARY TWAL IN CORSICA. A trial of extraordinary interest came before the Court of Assize of Bastia (Corsica), on the 30th May, and lasted ten days. Upwards of 150 witnesses were examined, and at least 3,000 persons were present in Court each day. The persons accused were Charles Morati, aged 39, landowner of Borgo; Dominique Morati, aged 22, his brother, landowner of the same place; Jean Gasabianca, labourer of Vignole, aged 44; and Jacques Graziani, labourer of Siolea, aged 17. The crime with which they were, charged was the murder of Barthelemy Sebastiani, an old man of con siderable wealth, and a large land proprietor in the commune of BOrgo. This gentleman had three daughters, of whom the eldest was married to Octave Alexandriani, a half-pay colonel, belonging to one of the highest families in Bastia, the second was the wife of Charles Morati, the owner of the commune of Borgo, a gentleman of a most honoUrable and dis tinguished family, and the third was a young girl, named Louise, riot yet married, but exceedingly at tached to Dominique Morati, the brother of her sis ter's husband. With the old man lived a sister, An gela Sebastiani, who had inherited a large fortune from her uncle, the late Bishop of Corsica. This lady was much annoyed at learning that Louise was in love ; for she had intended her as her heiress, and had often declared she would get her the most brilliant match in the country. She absolutely refused to consent to the marriage, and the consequence was that the young people made a runaway match, trust ing to time and the good offices of their friends to obtain pardon. This, however, was withheld by the aunt, and, on her death shortly after, it was found that she had constituted her brother sole heir of her large property, leaving nothing to her niece. The father, after some time, was persuaded, though not without some difficulty, to acknowledge the marriage and receive the young people. At first, however, he reused to give her any dowry; but the witnesses at the trial proved, in the most positive manner, that he had consented, just before he was murdered, to bestow upon her a portion like the other daughters. At this time all the families were on good terms with the old man, and paid him frequent visits. He was exceedingly fond of his grandson, the infant of Charles Morati, and always kept him at his own house, declaring that it would be. the delight of his old age to give him a brilliant edu cation. In April, 1840, the old gentleman set out on horseback for one of his estates, and near Terra-Rossa two shots were fired at him, and he fell dead on the public road. Two men were seen making their es cape masked and wretchedly dressed. Conjecture was immediately busy at work to fix on the perpe trators, and at ,last public suspicion seemed to settle on the two brothers Morati. They were arrested,, as well as the other prisoners, and the judicial investiga tion was carried on for 14 months. The accused were then ,left in prison, in order, if possible, to gain addi tional evidence. At last the trial was ordered to come on, and as the ordinary court was decided to be of too narrow dimensions to accommodate the crowd that was expected to attend, the church of the ancient convent of the Jesuits was fitted up for the occasion; but even with this additional accommodation the space wathr too circumscribed for the immense crowd that thronged round the building. The Prefect of Corsica, the Secretary .of the Prefecture, the Sub-Pre fect, the Mayor of Bastia, and a number of magistrates were present at the trial, and the galleries were each day filled with the first females in the country. The evi dence against the accused was merely circumstantial, and of an exceedingly weak description. The strongest testimony against them was a servant, formerly in the service of the Morati, named Canari, who declared tkat he saw two men come to his old master's, armed with guns and pistols, and that Charles Morati had said to them, after a long conference, " Take care not to be recognised." But this witness's testimony was proved to be unworthy of credit by the President Jourdan, who had, in tie presence of Canari, proved, by a visit to the place where the words were spoken, that it was impossible to hear a single word of what was said from the spot where Canari swore he stood at the time of the conversation. Canari, on finding that he was in danger of being tried for perj ur y, es caped. The Juge de Paix of Campile deposed that the deceased detested the Morati, and that all his affection was directed towards Mme, Alexandrini, so that ;it was the interest of the Morati to get the old man out of the way before he could make his will in her favour. This was, however, formally contra dicted by the evidence of M. Sebastiani, cure of La Porta, and vicar-general, who was on the most inti mate, terms with the deceased, and knew his every thought. He deposed that his brother, on the con trary, had, even ten days before the murder, spoken in the most affectionate manner of the Morati, and had intimated his intention of leaving his grand son a large fortune, provided, • when he grew up, he married his cousin, the only daughter of Colonel Alex andrini. " Could I declare,' said thie_venerable old man, " where the murderer of my dear brother could be found, be sure I would point him out. Ido not know it, but I am convinced that it is the blackest calumny to say the crime was committed ,in the family." Ile here rose up, and with great energy exclaimed, " No ; the Morati who were to be heirs of my brother as well as mine ; no, the Alexandrini, who were to partici pate in the same good. fortune are not guilty ; I swear • that they are innocent !" This gentleman's testi mony produced a great effect on the Court. The pri soners Cambianca and Graziani, who were tried as accomplices of the brothers Morati, proved an alibi by means of the witnesses for the accusation. The ninth day of the trial the witnesses for the accusation were all heard, and the counsel of the prisoners being called on for the defence, one of them rose and deg dared ".as there was no charge against the prisoners, it was unnecessary to produce witnesses. The pri soners declined calling any." It was then agreed to ad ourn the sitting for the reply of the law-officer of the Crown. The next day, early in the morning, every seat was occupied, though the proceedings were not to commence until ten o'clock. A line of the inhabitants of Borgo was drawn up from the prison to the Court, and throughout their passage the pri soners were received with the strongest marks of interest. When the • legal authorities entered the Court, it was found necessary to send for chairs and seats to the Mairie, as the public had seized on the places in tended for counsel. M. Sigandy, the Procureur- General spoke for two hours on the evidence given, and concluded by declaring that he gave up the charge against the orati, but persisted in accusing the others. The counsel of the prisoners then rose, and said " the innocence of the prisoners not being doubt ful in the mind of any person here present, we con tinue to follow the same line of conduct that ac tuated us in refusing to produce witnesses, and now decline making any defencG." The jury retired immediately, and after ten minutes absence brought in a verdict of Not Guilty. The President then addressed the four persons at the bar as follows :—" Casabianca, Graziani, and you, Morati brothers, victims of calumny, intrigue, and perjury, you have too long worn the chains reserved for criminals ; your fellow citizens have now broken your bonds, and I declare before these altars, where the God of Truth has fixed his abode—in ther face of the public—that you are innocent !"—(Loud applause burst forth in the Court, and cries were heard on all sides, Vice la Justice ! Vi vent les jures !) The friends of the accused rushed forward to congratulate and embrace them, and a full hour elapsed before the Court could he cleared. An immense crowd followed them to their residence, flowers were showered on them from the windows, and blessings were breathed forth on the names of the jury who had acquitted them. Such enthusiasm, excited by the power of conviction alone, is, perhaps, unique in the annals of criminal justice. ". The day before yesterday, as a man, employed in attending to a steam-engine at a manufactory in the Rue des Trois-Couronnes, was oiling some of the machinery, whilst the engine was in action, his hand was caught in one of the wheels, and in endeavouring to extricate it, his left leg was caught ,and torn from his body. Having received assistance, he was re moved to the hospital, where his hand, which was dreadfully injured, was immediately amputated. The poor fellow died yesterday. INCREASE OF CRIME.—The Worcestershire Mid summer Sessions commenced on Monday, and on Tuesday morning the Court proceeded to try the prisoners, of whom there were no less than 117 in the calendar—a striking proof, if any were wanting, of the existrnee of general distress in this county. To this number must be added those who will pro bably be committed before the close of the Sessions, which will, in all probability, nearly bring the gross total up to 130. We may state that, of the 117 in the calendar, only 3 could read and e rite well, and only one could read well ; no less than 42 being unable either to read or write.— Worcestershire Chronicle. CONVICTION OF DYSON, THE PRIZE FIGIITER.- On Wednesday the notorious Samuel Dyson, the prize fighter. for whom the police have been for mhriy months on the look out, is as captured and brought before E. Sanderson and J. Patrick, Esqrs., at the County Police-office, Palace card, on a charge of assaulting Joseph Bradley, on the night of the 24th of November last, since yr hich time the offender has kept out of the was. The 'Magistrates conceived the case of assault to be very clear, and fined Dyson in the penalty of 3/. Bs. 6d., with 1/. Its. 6d. costs,. and remuneration to Bradley; and in de fault to be committed to pi ism for two months. Dyson chose the latter ahernative.— Worchestershiie Chronicle.

ETERNITY.—An American clergyman, in one of his sermons, exclaimed to his hearers:—•• Eternity ! why you don't know Ilse ticeanirg of that word, nor 1 either, hardly. It is for ever and ever, and five or six e-erlastirgs a top of that. You might place a row of figures from here to smnet, and cipher them all up, and it wouldn't begin to tell how many ages tong eternity is. Why, my friends,-after mil lions and trillions of years have rolled away in eternity, it would bea huudred thousand pars t 9 b r eakfast time l" EMIGRATION TO THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. Various schemes have been proposed for promoting emigration ; some contemplate direct taxation, some a loan, and some an additional rate during the year, to be appropriated by each parish for the emigration of its poor, who prefer industry in the colonies to the degrad ing relief of our unions. Each and all of these, how ever, require legislation, and in the present depressed stwe of the national resources we do not perceive mush chance of either plan being soon adopted by Govern ment. But if each Colony were to adopt and keep in action a loan society, to assist industr:oas emigrants with 51. e.r 101., when unable to pay but a part of the passage money, we think the colonies would find their account in recsiying such men. Those who emigrate are generally driven to it by the cares of an increasing family, and ap proaching necessity ; and a happy necessity we may yen - Lute to call it, when the man sees, as with a bird's eye, that necessity makes it pruden't ; but half of those who go should have gone before ; like the swallow, they should have prepared in the summer—each should bare made up his mind when he has 4 some little means, in order to have emigrated more independently, and then charged with fewer children. But times are now pressing upon the labourer and, artisan, and most of them want some assistance, and it each colony had its loan society, they would decidedlY draw out a better sort of families, who are desirous and partly able to pay for their passages. The needy work' from competition, is now induced to undertake a job tit mush less than formerly, and with the high price of provisions, and rent indeed, scarcely at supporti n g wages. This co npetition must increase, till at last th e little stock at the savings' bank, from little becom es nothing. These preliminary remarks arise from having bee n shown the counterpart of a promissory note, which gentleman in this city has adopted for assisting emigra tion. Simplicity recommends it, and credit for part of the passage money being offered, indicates the certain t y. that tne emigrant will soon be able to pay for the balanc e of passage money in the colony. The promissory note we have seen does not give quite so much assistance as we could %visls, but the principle is equally good, and it may be as much as an individual can do. Societies could do more. We insert both sides of a promissory note EMIGRATION 10 THE CAPE OF GOOD HOrE• PHOMISSoRY NOTE, FOR £l3. I hereby acknowledge that Mr. Joseph S.

The emigrant, on payment of each instalment, to b e urged to write to his friends in England, giving an 3e count Of his progress, and of the country. Thus the emigrant is taken to the colony for el., Pa L l down, and a promissory note* of 4/., the latter to ve paid in five months afer arrival, in monthly instal" ments, the first instalment to be paid two months after arrival, in order to give the emigrant time to turn hiny f self round, and get his little comforts around him. -1 1 he require no assistance, an emigrant can go for 12 only. It will be observed that the first payment made he re is acknowledged by the ship-owner on the back ; and that he appoints his agents in the colonies to receive the . instalments, for which the receipt is also given on th e back as they are paid ; and thus the note is cancell by itself. By this simple plan we are persuaded much good on! be effected, and we highly commend it ; because tD e emigrant is not obliged to labour for the person . who the assists hint, and forced into taking reduced wages. l' e ci takes his labour to the best market in the colony' a n f perhaps pays off the balance in five weeks, instead ° f . five months.

SINGULAR CASE.—Thursday an inquest was held heroic 111 r. T. Wakley, at the Harp, George-street, St. Giles r " on view of the body of a female, who used to go by the uttli'l of "the little Frenchwoman," and was sometimes cal le d " Mrs Emma Clark," who hung herself froM a window P r on Monday last, at her lodgings in Buckeridge-court. It sP„ - peared from the evidence that on the day in question, t "i deceased did not answer the servant who called her as usnsj at ten o'clock that morning. A ladder was therefore place at her window, the dour being found to be bolted 0 1 A ;1 when the body was found dead and stiff. The deceased seen alive and well at eleven o'clock on Sunday night. though she had been residing for nine years in that ncig e bout hood, no evidence could be procured as to the birth-1 0 0 i or relations of the deceased. She used to disappear now t o then for six or seven vieeks, and on her return has said t hy ' she had been to France, and a juryman said he had heard td she was the widow of a captain in the French army, and h a d pension receivable abroad. She had apparently sufficil means of maintenance, and was very reserved, until this Na, week, when she suddenly took to drinking, evincing at the 4,34 time, by a change to wildness in her manner, that she y et' become insane. She had said to her servant that she " o ` l could live in poverty." A very trifling sum was found in Pe r room. Verdict, " Suicide whilst insane." Of FAILURE IN SIIETLAND.—The extensive Messrs.
