FRAN CE. La Presse announces that the French Government I has not as yet received any dispatch confirming the reported commencement of hostilities between the Piedmontese and Austrian troops, or the passage of the Ticino by the Piedmontese troops. It admits, however, that the Sardinian Ambassador in Paris has prepared the French Government for the contingency of an approaching resumption of hostilities between King Charles Albert and Austria. It further an nounces that the principle of intervention demanded by Pope Pius IX. of France, Austria, Spain, and Naples has been admitted by common consent of the Four Powers. The judicial proceedings at Bourges were resumed on Thursday at the usual hour. The tribunes were much crowded, and a considerable number of ladies were present. Anxiety to see M. de Lamartine, who was •to be examined, was the cause assigned for their presence. During the examination of the first witness a huissier announced to the Court that M. de Lamar tine had arrived, and awaited the President's orders. In a few minutes he appeared in court, and his presence seemed to create a sensation in the galleries. He deposed to what took place on the 15th. He declared his belief that the manifes tation in favour of Poland was only a pretext to in vade the Assembly. He was certain, from diplo matic correspondence he received, that foreign emis saries had been employed, and that foreign agents had come to Paris from Cracow for the purpose. He did not say that there was a complot, in the exact sense of the word, but there was no doubt that an attack had been meditated against the Assembly, which only failed in consequence of the clubs being jealous of each other, and in consequence of each wishing to be the leader. Several other witnesses were then examined, and the court adjourned at six o'clock. The following is a return of the situation of the Bank of France up to Mareh 15:— A SSET S.

VALUE OF DOCKYARD STOCK.—.Mr. Freeman, the store-receiver of Sheerness Dock-yard, who has been absent on special duty for nearly nine months, has been appointed by the Admiralty to determine the value of the dockyard stock of timber, in which service their Lordships have ordered him to be assisted by Mr. J. Bennett, the timber inspector of Portsmouth Dockyard. ITALY. The Ticino Gazette of the 12th inst. states that it was reported at Turin that the English Minister had presented to the King an ultimatum, in which he offered to annex to Piedmont the duchies of Parma, Piacenza, and Modena, to give Lombardy to the Duke of Leuchtenberg, and to declare Venice independent for the present. " Should Charles Albert," adds that journal, "refuse to accept these terms, England would withdraw from the mediation." General Chiodo, Minister of War, had addressed an order of the day to the army, cautioning the soldiers against the at tempts made to seduce them from their allegiance. The brigade of Savoy was to leave Turin on the 15th for Alexandria. The Hungarian Legion, all the cavalry depots, and two battalions of Savona had been ordered to that capital. We have accounts from Venice to the 3d instant, on which day the session of the Assembly was regularly opened, and M. Benvenuti Bartolomme elected President. The Assembly, after the elec tion of the standing committees, received a message from the Tribunes, declaring themselves ready to resign the executive power into the hands of a new Government. Atter a conversation on the mission of M. Tommaseo to the Republic of France, expla natory of the reasons why that Power had not afforded to the State of Venice the assistance ex pected, the Assembly discussed a project of address to the Governments of Rome and Tuscany, the com mittee charged to draw up a similar one to the Go vernment of Piedmont having decided that such a measure would be inopportune. THE ARMY AND NAVY. (From the United Service Gazette of Satur,lay.) INCREASE TO THE ARMT.—The following regi ments have received orders to complete their rank and file to 1,000 each, viz. :-26th, Cameronians, 15th, 30th, 41st, 47th, 49th, and 69th, and to hold themselves in readiness to embark for foreign service. BOUNTIES TO SOLDIERS.—To complete the regi ments in India, as well as those about to proceed there, as quick as possible, the Government has sanc tioned payment of a bounty of one guinea to each man who shall volunteer from other regiments, to enable him to defray the expense of altering his clothing and appointments. STAFF.—Captain Follows, late of the 53d Regi ment, has been appointed Staff Officer of Pensioners rat ,Thurso, N. 8., vacant by the decease of Quarter master Macdonald. Lieutenant-Colonel Hope is to act as Staff Officer of Pensioners at Edinburgh, during the absence of Captain Tulloch in North America. OVERGROWN FRIGATES, OR SMALL ROOFS.—The proportions of the Nankin, building at Woolwich, a 50-gun frigate, have so extended, that the slip, No. 7, is not large enough for her; or rather the bounda ries of the roof so interfere with the progress of the massively-framed ship, that the Admiralty have been obliged to order a portion of it to be removed, to make room for fitting the knee of her head. THE FIRST LIEUTENANT OF TILE VICTORY. By the appointment of Lieutenant R. E. Bullen (1830), as Senior Lieutenant to the Victory, vice Herrick, promoted, another act of justice has been done the service by Sir F. Baring. Lieutenant 13ullen has served upwards of seventeen years afloat, the greater part of that time in the West Indies and coast of Africa, and has already held the position of Senior Lieutenant of various ships for nearly five years. He is the nephew of a most distinguished officer,. Vice- Admiral Sir Charles Bullen, &c., and has been Second Lieutenant of the Victory for the last 15 months. MANNING THE NAVY.—Notwithstanding the num bers of seamen that have been paid off during the last nine months, and the numbers of extra men borne in the books of the guard ships, there has been the greatest difficulty experienced in filling up the complement of the Caledonia to 960, that is of en tering some 300 blue jackets; and at length the Ad miralty were compelled to open a rendezvous at Ports mouth, and go to the expense of sending steamers to and fro between Devonport and Portsmouth for their conveyance. It appears that Captain Carter has been very particular in his selection, refusing to enter any man who had not a " very good " certificate up to the last moment; when, finding that the " very good'' had been starved away out of the ports to seek some other mode of livelihood than that of service on board ma n"cif-war, he at length felt dispo se d t o accept to .i, good" seamen. It was now, however, Jack' s t urn refu se , and r efuse. numbers did, swear i ng th a t th ey would rather j the merc h an t serv i ce or follow their shipmates to i,3l.merica th an accep t suc h o ff er. The Caledonia was 0 sail tomorrow short y es t er d ay, b u t i t i s expected that she Will ai to-morrow for the Mediter ranean nevertheless.

Westminster Chartered Ditto, New ........ 0000 X s. d 10 0 0 cloths for the spring trade are in more request, but low qualities are dull in consequence of the advanced prices asked. Business has been pretty brisk in the warehouses this week. Many of the larger whole sale buyers have been in the town, and have bought more freely than for some time. The shipping houses also continue busy. BRADFORD, MARC?' 15.—Wool.—The demand for all kinds of combing wools is very small compared with some weeks past. With an abundant supply of all kinds in the market, and no disposition to sell on easier terms, the spinners are inclined to use up their stocks rather than buy at present prices. Yarns.— During the present and last week there has not been quite so much animation in this branch of the trade, but it will have no effect on prices so long as all are so actively engaged to absolute order. There are no stocks on hand of any kind ; and even among the commission houses, where, for some time past, there have been supplies of old spun, none can now be found. The prospects are highly favourable for con tinuing busy, as the prices are now far below an average of ten years, although decidedly dearer than for the two or three years just ended of the most profitless trade ever experienced by those engaged it. Pieces.—There is nothing different from the beginning of this month for any kind of goods. Orleans, Cobourgs, Lustres, plain and fancy, are all in steady request. In fancy goods mixed with silk there is not so much doing as last season, and the most active now are mixed plain ground Alpacas, of which the supply is not equal to the demand, and are command ing good prices. MANCHESTER, THURSHAL—We have not had by any means an extensive trade this week. The rather unfavourable news from India has tended to check sales for that quarter, though a tolerable business is doing in goods for that market. The very unsettled state of the cotton market adds greatly to the diffi culties in making extensive sales ; prices, however, are but very little, if any, affected ; still, in some cases, the buyer has had the advantage. It is pretty well known that very large orders are in town wait ing for some decisive change one way or other as to prices before agents can be induced to operate exten sively. Stocks in manufacturers' and spinners' hands are not large, except in some wealthy firms. Yarns are rather easier to buy, but the change is scarcely a quotable one, and but little shipping to the Con tinent. " LEICESTER.—The hosiers now requiring the ad vance in their worsted goods, but little has been doing, buyers preferring to wait for the season's de mand until their present stocks are sold off. The straight down bands having obtained the advance they required, cotton hose made at old prices are cleared off, and the advance on the workmanship is firmly de manded by the manufacturer. In the yarn markets present prices are well maintained. Wools have re ceived a check, the prices demanded being such as spinners cannot give until their stock on hand is con sumed. NOTTINGHAM.—The cotton hosiery trade has settled down into a state of comparative quietude, the workmen, however, apparently content with their late unexpected advantages in gaining an advance and a regulation, much to their credit, seem contented, and very wisely bear their good fortune with moderation. The cotton hosiery branches of almost all kinds are in a flourishing condition, the wrought cotton hose the least so. The silk bobbin trade, especially for black lace, seems to have suddenly revived. There is also a slight stir in the fancy cotton trade, many of the warehouses working long hours, the number, if we can judge by the lights in windows, increasing. The warp lace trade had been almost despaired of, but we have been gratified this week by seeing the warp hands about the tw on with full beams of cotton on their shoulders, an indication of improvement.— Leeds Mercury of Saturday.

CIVIL SlDE.—(Betore Mr. Baron PARKE and a Spe cial Jury.) THE IRISH GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY V. PAR. QUHAR. This action commenced on Thursday, and, with an other of a similar character, occupied the attention of the Court until nearly ten o'clock on Friday night. Mr. M. Chambers, Mr. Peacock, and Mr. Bovill were for the plaintiff ; Sergeant Shee, Mr. Ogle, and Mr. Anderson, of the Chancery bar, were for the defendants. This action was brought to recover from the defend • ant a large sum of money, being calls in arrear, that had been made upon him as a shareholder or proprietor, in the undertaking of con s t ruc ti ng a railway through the western counties of Ireland, from Dublin to Galway. The case was one of a purely technical character, the answer on the part of the defendant being that the di rectors had abandoned their original scheme, to which alone the defendant alleged he had become a party, and had amalgamated themselves with some other company, contrary to the interests of the shareholders, and that, therefore, he was not bound by tke original contract. Mr. Baron PARXE, however, said, it appeared to him that the Act of Parliament referring to the proposed railway had given the directors almost unlimited powers, and the defendant by signing the Parliamentary con- tract and the other deeds as a shareholder, had delegated a power to the directors to act as they considered best, and he held therefore that under these circumstances the defendant was liable. The jury accordingly returned a verdict for the plain tiffs, several points of law, however, being reserved for further consideration. THE SAME V. MASTERMAN. This was anOtriera:tionof a similar character, and the jury found for the plaintiffs upon all the material issues, the points of law, as in the last case, being re served. (CROWN SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN.) Robert TVickson, 30, a marine artilleryman, was in dicted tor feloniously casting and throwing Elizabeth Mullinder from a window of the height of twenty feet and upwards, to the ground, with intent to murder her. Mr. Tassel! prosecuted, and Mr. Addison defended the prisoner. _ . - The prosecutrix stated that she was 14 years old, and in November last she was in service at Strood. On the sth of November she had a dispute with her mistress, and she in consequence left her place, without giving any notice, on the following morning. She walked about Chatham and Rochester all that day, and at night she got a bid at a public-house where she was known. On the fallowing day she continued walking about the town, and about seven i❑ the evening she went into the Union Flag, where she met the prisoner. After this they went to several other houses, and at length they went to bed together. After a short time she got up and dressed herself, and the prisoner began to abuse her, and at last said he would throw her out of the window, and after having struck her and used very bad language, he opened the window of the room and took her by the shoulders and pushed her up to the window and left her on the sill, where she sat for a minute or two, and the prisoner then pushed her off and she fell into the yard, a height of 24 feet. Upon being cross-examined, the prosecutrix said that she had been in the same service two years, and the' rea son she went away as she did was because her mistress boxed her ears. She likewise swore positively that she had never before been intimate with any man. Elizabeth Lawrence, the servant of the house, deposed that upon bearing some person groaning in the back yard she went out, and found the prosecutrix lying upon the stone in an almost insensible state. She said to her, " Good God, you have not jumped out of the window have you?" and she replied that she did not jump out, but that the prisoner had thrown her out. Harriet Toomer, the landlady, said that upon hearing what had occurred she questioned the prisoner how it happened, and he said that the girl had got out of the window of her own accord, and that he laid bold of her arm and tried to prevent her from falling as long as he could. He then requested that she might have all the assistance she required, and said he would pay whatever expense was incurred. Mr. Archibald Robinson, a surgeon, Chatham, deposed that he was called in to see the prosecutrix on the night in question, and found her i n s f a i nt i ng and frightened state. She was bruised about the face, and also on the knees, but none of the injuries were of a serious cha racter. Mr. ADDISON, in addressing the jury for the prisoner, said that the story told by the prosecutrix was of a most improbable character, and he urged that it was much more probable that in alarm at the positi on i n w hi c h s h e had placed herself with the prisoner, she had gone to the window and jumped out, than that he had thrown her from it. The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. -----_ OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Stai or d Marcia 16. CROWN COURT.—(Before M r . Baron PLATT.) Timothy Burk e , 42, w as i ndicted for the wilful mur der of Joseph Higgins, at Wolverhampton, on the 10th of September. It appeared that deceased di e d f rom the effects of a kick, received during la street row. There was, how ever, no evidence to prove that prisoner was the party who actually killed deceased; and, after a trial of five hours, His Lordship directed an acquittal, as he did not think it safe to convict a man of murder under such circumstances. William Norris, 26, was indicted for attempting to drown Sarah Jane Bloomfield, at Gwosall, on th e 13 t h of A ugust. 1 848 , withintent to kill and murder her. eatndthe yonng woman on th e to w i ng made imp roper proposals, when o p t a i tTh h h e oe r f r pt e rh t i u eso s c i n n aen g ra t lm o , consent to his wishes, he took her by the shoulders and pushed her into the canal. He then ran away, leaving . her to d rown. A man, however, who was near, jumped into the canal, and with considerable difficulty rescued her fro m d eath. The prosecutrix did not a p pear, and her recognizances were entreated, but , . the cas e wai fully proved by other witnesses. The prisoner was convicted, and sentenced to be transported for life. The Court sat until eleven o'clock to-night. WESTERN CIRCUI P. —Dorchester March 16. Mathew Symes. 58, was arraigned on the Coroner's inquisition for causing the deaths of John Hoare and Samuel Hoare, the children of a dairyman, by inocu lating them with the small-pox. It appeared quite evident that the prisoner bad acted from feelings of kindness, but as the Learned Judge laid it down very distinctly that the prisoner had committed an unlawful act by violating the Act 3d and 4th Vict., cap. 29, the jury returned a verdict of Guilty. He was sentenced only to two days' imprisonment. George Davis was indicted for stabbing William Bolt, with intent to kill and murder him. The parties were together in a public-house at Wey mouth, and some dispute arising respecting the Wey mouth races, the landlady took the prisoner by his shoulders and pushed him out of ;the back door. This adjoined his own lodging, a part of which was occupied by a shomaker. The prisoner seized up a shomaker's knife, ran round to the front of the house, and thrust the knife with great violence into the abdomen of the prosecutor, who was dangerously wounded thereby. The prisoner was found Guilty of the offence, with the intent charged.—Death recorded. Tho assizes terminated early this morning. were counsel for the NORFOLK CIRCUIT. —Cambridge, March 16. Mr. Andrews a s nd irr l& CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Sir F. Perzocit, and a Special Jury.) Plaintiff; Mr. Pendergast an d Mr. Sanders appeared for of a promise of ma: E l ...E ls: l : G the defendant. to which the defend aariertyETT. This was an action of assumpsit, in which the plain tiff sought to recover compensation for the breach defend ant pleaded non assumpsit. From the opening statement of the lea rne d counsel i t a ppeared that the plaintiff was a young l a d y o f great person al beauty, the only daught er of a medi ca l gentleman o f l on g standing and respecta bility in this town, and that the defendant at the time when th e f oundation for t hi s ac tion was laid, was an un der.graduate of Catherine-Hall —himself the son of a medical man in the north of England. In early life the plaintiff bad been a great invalid, and during a long ill ness had fallen lame. From this defect, however, she had gradually recovered, but still remained indelicate health, when she was introduced to the defendant at the house of a common friend. Ere long her attractions had eli cited great attention from the defendant, who was not much her junior. and in a short time he became her pro fessed admirer and suitor, till in the month of May, 1847, he gave expressi on to his feelings in the following note, which may perhaps be given to the world as a remark. ably neat and appropriate mode of conveying an offer of marriage : _ _ Catherine Hall. " Since my fi rst introduct i on t o you I have n o t b een master of my own heart, an d therefore I cannot do bet ter than (sic) to off er it to her who has robbed me of it. , If you will accept of such an offering, I am indeed a happy man. " Believe me, your truly attached H . W. This letter was enclosed in a very tiny envelope, ad dressed to " Miss Southee, Cambridge," and, being shown by the young lady to her mother, was submitted afterwards to her father, who thereupon wrote to the defendant a highly creditable letter, wherein he deli cately alluded to the state of his daughter's health, and, after admonishing the defendant that she would one s ,. nay iequine Lire gr, iatest care, coasieeralion, and affection at his hands, called upon him to examine well the serious nature of the offer he had made to her, and to pause ere he involved her in an engagement, which, unless honourably carried out on his parr, would entail a load of misery upon her, which would be c siderably enhanced by her infirmity. The defendant responded to this appeal in a manner and with an earnest ness which satisfied Mr. Southee that his affection for the plaintiff was not of a transient character, and from that time he was the accepted suitor of the young lady. In July he left Cambridge for a short time, repairing to his family at Liverpool, whence he wrote frequently, ad dressing the plaintitl ss " My dearest Amelia," and sub scribing himself as her " devotedly attached, 11. W. Garrett." At the installation of Prince Albert, the defendant repaired again to the University, when he became the guest of Mr. Southee, and accompanied his family in all the gay doings of that memorable event. On his return home he resumed his correspondence, which, at first, was characterised by the same ex pressions of attachment to the plaintiff which had won her heart. In a short time, however, he alluded to certain losses which he had sustained, and ere his return to Cambridge, in the October following, she was simply " dearest Amelia," while he was only her " attached H. W. Garrett." When he came up in October he sent a friend to speak to Mr. Southee touching his losses; but that gentleman preferred a personal inter view, wherein he put certain questions to the defendant relative to that subject, which were now described to have been but:unsatisfactorily answered. On the whole the conduct of the defendant excited the suspicion of the young lady's father, who had heard rumours of another attachment, and after waiting some little time for " further and better particulars," as the lawyers have it, he took upon himself, although his daughter's affections had been rather strengthened than weakened by the reported deficiency in her suitor's fortune (which at no time was ever supposed to exceed 3001. per annum), to address a pointed letter o f re monstrance to the defendant, calling to his mind the cau tion he had given to him in the first instance, and re quiring an explicit explanation of his motives for discard ing his daughter, with whose feelings he, as her father, could not but deem that he had been trifling in a most heartless manner. To this letter no reply was given by the defendant, who had in the meantime taken his degree, and had entered into holy orders, and no solution of his conduct was vouchsafed till his marriage with "a lady in the north ".. was announced in the public prints. Stung to the quick by this desertion of his daughter, Mr. Southee determined that this action should be brought; and soon after the proceedings were commenced the de fendant wrote a letter to the gentleman at whose house he bad met the plaintiff, in which, after enquiring whether his friend had heard of " Southee's proceedings," and wondering why he had been "so sly about them," the writer added that he did not care for them, as "he had made a settlement on his wife of all his tin, so that neither Southee nor any one else could ever get a copper of it." This effusion, so differ ent from his first composition, his friend deemed it his duty to show to Mr. Southee, and, as may be supposed, its terms did not in any way assuage the indignation of that gentleman, nor make amends to his unhappy daughter for that insult which the poet terms the " spretos injuries formce." The above statement having been made on behalf of the plaintiff,. her father was put into the box to sub stantiate it, but his examination had hardly begun ere The CHIEF BARON interposed, and observi ng that as the defendant co u ld not d eny hi s promise and its' breach, the only question was as to the amount of the damages, and suggested that they might possibly be arranged be tween the , parties on terms commensurate with the cir cumstances of the defendant, who, as appeared from one of his letters, had accepted the appointment of under master at some grammar school in the country. On this suggestion, the Learned Counsel entered into a close and lengthened negotiation, which finally re sulted in the defendant's submitting to a verdict of 3001., accompanied by an express and suitable disavowal on his part of any imputation on the conduct or character of the fair defendant. On the contrary, the defendant, to use the language of his Learned Counsel, " hi.d always desired that his case should be conducted in a manner which might relieve the plaintiff from all blame and pain; but the truth was that he had formed a prior attachment in another quartet-, which had only given way to the influence of the plaintiff's attractions, and it was, perhaps, but natural and likely that the defendant should revert to his earliest love when removed from the immediate presence of the plaintiff." The CHIEF BARON expressed his entire approval of the course which had been taken in the arrangement of the case, and having passed a well-merited compliment on the first letter of Mr. Southee, added that the object of the action had been fully obtained, for the plaintiff had now the satisfaction of knowing that the change in the de fendant's feelings towards her had not been actuated by any impressions in the slightest degree derogatory to her fair fame and reputation, which had been fully vindi cated by these proceedings. The jury then found a verdict, under his Lordship's direction, for the plaintiff for 3001. OLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. • John Eaton was brought before Mr. Hardwick for final examination, charged with having committed a burglary at No. 28, Denmark -street, and stolen a large quantity of boots and shoes, the property of James Towers. Police-constable Godden, F 28, said he was on duty in Soho on Friday night, when, on going his rounds, about twelve o'clock at night, he noticed that the street door of No. 28, Denmark -street, was open. He went into the passage, and called up the landlord. Mr. Eld, an auctioneer, who came down stairs immediately. While in the passage three men suddenly rushed out of the shop; two of them he seized, and a desperate struggle commenced. Witness was repeatedly struck by both men, and was pulled into the street. One of the men fell down, and witness fell down also, and was then obliged to release his hold of the men. The man who had fallen down jumped up and ran off ; but witness called out " Stop thief 1" and in a minute or two the prisoner was stopped by police-constable F 23, and brought back in custody. Witness was quite sure the prisoner was one of the men with whom he had struggled, and when the prisoner ran off witness never lost sight of him for a mo ment. On their way to the station-house the prisoner said to him, " Old fellow, you have got the wrong one this time." Witness searched the prisoner at the station house, but found nothing on him except 2s. ld. in money, and a whistle. Police constable Frost, F 23, said he heard a cry of stop thief, on Friday night, and seeing the prisoner run ping as hard as be could down Denmark. street, he pur sued and stopped him. The only remark made by the prisoner at the time was, that that was all he got for attending to police duties. Joseph Barfield lodged at Mr. Eld's house, in Den mark -street, and heard the alarm given by the first witness relative to the street-door being open. He went down stairs, and he saw three men jump out of the shop and attack the constable. Witness was also struck by one of the thieves. Police constable Gibbs said he examined the premises, No. 28, Denmark • street. He found that the street-door had been entered with skeleton keys, and that the pad lock on the shop-door had been opened in the same way. In the shop he found two bag:. such us were commonly used by thieves. One of the bags was filled with boots and shoes, the other was empty and lying on the floor. Witness found 54 pairs of boots and one pair of shoes in the full bag, and there were about 27 other pairs on the floor ready to be placed in the other bag. Witness found two skeleton keys in the shop. Wm. Gunneron, shopman to James Towers, shoe maker, said about ten o'clock on Friday night he fas tened the shop-door with a padlock and left all safe. The shoes and boots found in the bag were worth about 25/. Witness recollected that a few days before the robbery the prisoner and a female, whom witness under stood was his wife, came into the shop and bought a pair of women's bouts. The prisoner wished to be al lowed to retire into the back yard for a few minutes, and leave having been granted, the prisoner had an oppor tunity of making himself acquainted with the fastenings of the shop. Witness noticed that a man was waiting outside while the prisoner and the woman were making the purchase. The prisoner said he would reserve his defence, and he was fully committed on this charge. The prisoner and his wife, Caroline Eaton, were then charged with having committed a robbery at the shop of Mr. Parslow, tailor, 6, King-street, Bloomsbury. Sarah Parslow, wife of John Parslow, tailor, 6, King street, Bloomsbury, said, on the 23d of February, about half -past eight o'clock, some one entered the shop and stole about 251. worth of cloth, and other property. The daughter said, just before the robbery the female prisoner called at the shop to make some inquiry. William Harris, sawyer, said he lived opp os it e t o t h e prosecutor. On the morning in question he saw a female come out of Mr. Parslow's shop with an armful of cloth, and other things. She gave the property to a man who was with her, and they then crosses! over to another man who was waiting for them beneath an archway. The parties then went away together. Witness had only an opportunity of seeing the man's side face, to whom the woman first spoke, but witness was certain the pri soner Eaton was that man. The prisoners declared that the witness was quite mis taken. They had no knowledge whatever of the robbery. They were remanded until Wednesday. An elderly man of respectable appearance, who gave the name and address of Edward Thompson, St. Sidwell, Exeter, was charged with stealing several pairs of ladies' boots from the shop of Mr. John Simpson, shoemaker, 1, Tottenham-court-road. Mr. Simpson said he saw the prisoner sitting in his shop that afternoon, waiting, as the prisoner said, for some ladies. In consequence of information witness re. ceived, he went up to the prisoner and told him he sus pected he had robbed him. The prisoner got up, and witness then saw two pairs of boots fall from his p oc k e t. Witness detained the prisoner, who attempted to escape, and the prisoner then took a third pair of boots from his pocket and gave them to witness. The boots were worth 12s. 6d. In the pifsoner's possession an oil painting was also found. The prisoner maintained the strictest silence, and was fully committed. GLASGOIk IRON MARRET.—MARCH N.—During the week pig iron has been gradually needing in price ; and there seems to be no disposition to contract for for ward delivery from the impression that lower rates must yet be submitted to. Manufactured iron remains tole rably steady, but the demand is ❑ot improving.

INSTITUTION (IqP CIVIL L7I`.ZGI NE ERs. TUESDAY, MARCH 13.—Joshua Field, EN., President, in the chair. The paper read was " A description of the Camden Station of the London arid North stern Railway ," by Mr. R. B. Doekray, Al. Ins:. C. E. In the first design of the railway, in 1833, this station was intended for the sole terminus of the line, and, after much discussion, thirty acres of ground were purchased, although that quantity was considered preposterously large. A very short time demonstrated the necessity for the establishment of the Euston Station solely for passengers; and fourteen acres were there secured, and ultimately covered with buildings. The whole station at Camden was then devoted to goods and cattle; and although in the original design great care was taken to anticipate the wants of the traffic, yet such his been the rapid development of the railway system, that io the space of ten sears it has proved necessary to sweep away almost every vestige of the original constructions, and entirely to remodel the station. These changes have been partly produced by the increase of the goods' traffic, which was first undertaken by the great carriers, who built large warehouses on the company's land. The whole system has, however been reformed, and the com pany do ,all that business, and are responsible to the public for the due performance. As the increase of the traffic progressed, the trains in sidings frequently became of such length as to cause danger to the passenger trains; it, therefore, became necessary to alter the whole disprsition; which has been so done, as now to give a length of double line of two thousand five hundred feet, for the goods' waggons only, entirely clear of the main line. Another reason for the alterations was, the demand by the public for a more rapid rate of travelling—this demanded heavier and larger engines, and necessitated wider buildings and larger turn-tables; in fact, every thing required to be remodelled ;—and the results of all these changes were shown in detail in the paper and the illustrating drawings. The circular engine-house, one-hundred and sixty feet diameter, tocontain twenty-four engines and tender, with a central turn. table, forty. one feet in diameter, and an iron roof, was excellently described; as were also the other engine houses, stores, warehouses, sheds, &c., with their appurtenances; and among the external works, the new wrought-iron bridge, at Chalk Farm, on Mr. Stephen son's box-girder principle, and the wooden lattice bridge over the Regent's Canal. The supply of water for the locomotive engines was then treated of at some length, and exhibited some cu rious anomalies. The only water that could originally be used, was taken from wells at Tring and Watford; an attempt was, however, made to obtain a su ppl y at Cam den station, from the Regent's Canal, and then by sinking a well down one hundred and forty-five feet into the chalk, or to a total depth of three hundred feet be low Trinity high-water mark. The water from the sand stratum was excluded, and although only that from the chalk was pumped up, which ought to have pos sessed the same qualities as the water at Tring and Watford, derived also from the chalk. yet it was found to cause the locomotive to "prime," or flash water through the cylinders, with the steam, to such an extent as to seriously impede the progress of the trains. This was shown, by analysis, to arise from the excess of carbonate of soda contained in this well water, which there was an entire absence of in the waters of the wells at Tring and at Watford. The well, therefore, became useless for the engines, but the water was so excellent for househould and other purposes, that it has been employed for the general uses of the station, and for the hotels and houses belonging to the company. Some idea of the extent of the station was given by the statement, that the length of single line of railway exclusive of the main lines, exceeded twelve miles. There were one hundred and twelve sets of poi:As, one hundred and ninety-six turn-plates, and one hundred and ten cranes, varying in power from one ton and a half to twenty tons. The area of goods' sheds was upwards of one hundred and thirty five thousand supercial feet, and that of the platforms was thirty thousand feet. The annual consumption of gas exceeded six millions of cubic feet. The discussion that ensued turned chiefly on the causes of the excess of alkalinity in the water at that spot, and it was suggested that it might be owing to the rapid filtration of surface water through a crevice in the chalk upon which that well had been sunk; and as a cure for the "priming," it was suggested to try a minute quantity of sulphuric acid to neutralise the alkali. There appeared, however, to be a question whether the water from the green sand was really completely ex chided. The subject was announced to be resumed at the next meeting, of Tuesday, March 20th, when the paper read would be "On Electric Telegraphs." By Mr. E. High ton, Assoc. Inst. C. E. SHOCKING MURDER OF AN INNKEEPER AT TOR KINGTON, GLOUCESTERSHIRE.—An unusual degree of consternation and alarm was occasioned on Friday night, in the peaceful village of Torkington, Gloucester shire, in consequence of its becoming known that Mr. W. Fowler, the respectable landlord of the Crown Tavern, had been brutally killed by a man of the name of Charles Kibby. Kibby, who was a tarm-labourer in the employ of Mr. Samuel Bowden, a farmer of the neighbourhood, bears but an indifferent character. On Friday last he had been during the day at a beer-house called the lVhite Horse, and which is kept by a person named Thomas. At about eight o'clock in the even ing he sallied forth, and proceeded to the Swan Inn, and being there refused admission he went straightway to the Crown. The landlord was sitting in a chair in the bar, and as the fellow passed to the taproom he, without having received the slightest provocation, mut tered curses at him, and said he would have him out of that chair. He then went into the taproom and called for some liquor, which, having drunk, he tendered the servant a half-grown piece in payment. It happened that he had had a pint of cider on trust on a previous day, and in giving him change the money for it was stopped. At this Kibby became very wrathful, anti using dreadful oaths, he vowed vengeance against the landlord. This language at length became so disgusting that Mr. Fowler, anxious to spare the feelings of his own family and his respectable customers, ordered him to quit the premises. This he refused to do, and became more insulting, so that Mr. Fowler was obliged to put his hands to his shoulders for the purpose of pushing him towards the door. Kibby then commenced a savage attack upon him, struck him violently about the head and body, and at length gave him so severe a blow over the heart that the unfortunate man fell, and never spoke afterwards. The parties in the house then seized the murderer, who was secured with difficulty, and conveyed with the as sistance of a constable to the county police station at Almondbury, where he will be detained to await the result of the Coroner's inquest. Mr. Fowler, who was highly respected in the village, has left a wife and three children. STANrIELD HALL MURDERS. — WYMONDUAM, SA TURDAY.—We have this morning made inquiries at Stanfield Hall as to the state of health of the unfortu nate lady, Mrs. Jermy, and her maid, Elizabeth Chestney. Mrs. Jermy was described to be in an ex ceedingly critical condition. Since the operation she underwent on Tnesday morning, of the amputation of her wounded arm, she has had two good nights' rest; and although she is far from being out of danger, yet her sufferings are not so severe as previous to the removal of the limb. At first it was deemed necessary by the legal gentlemen who are preparing the case for the prosecution, that Mrs. Jermy should be brought forward as a witness at the trial, to prove certain im portant conversations between the elder Mr. Jermy and Rush, a few days prior to the assassinations. It is now clear, however, even should she survive, that it will be quite impossible for her to attend. It has been said, that by the Attorney. General's new Act, Mrs. Jermy's disposition would be admissible as evidence. Such, however, appears not to be the case. Another difficulty also presents itself in the unfavourable state of Dina Chestney. The poor girl is devotedly attached to her mistress, whose precarious condition has so much affected her as to bring on a relapse, and she continues in a low way, requiring the constant attendance of her medical gentlemen. Notwithstanding the melancholy condition of these witnesses, the officers for the prosecu tion have decided on placing Rush on his trial at the forthcoming assizes, which commence on Monday week, at Norwich Castle. On the authority of a Magistrate, we learn that Rush intends to defend himself. The greatest interest is manifested amongst the gentry of the county to be present at the trial, and already large prices have been offered for seats in the Court. --- THE LATE MURDER AT BRISTOL.—Ann Thomas, the mother of Sarah Thomas, wbo, on Thursday last, was committed upon the coroner's warrant for the wilful murder of her mistress, Miss Elizabeth Jefferies, at Bris tol, was on Saturday examined before the magistrates of that city upon a charge of being an accessory to the murder after the fact. The paints upon which the charge was founded are these:—On the Wednesday evening after the body was found, when the police went to the house of the girl's father, at Horfield, for the purpose of apprehending her, the mother answered th em f rom a window; and on being asked by the i ns p ec t or o f po li ce if Sarah was at home, replied that she had not seen her for two months, and that she was living at Pensford, and the last they heard of her was by a letter. Subsequently the prisoner and the stolen property were found in the house, the prisoner in the coal-hole, and the property secreted in different places, and from this the guilty knowledge of the mother was inferred. The magistrates considering that the mother had been admitted and sworn as a witness on the coroner's inquest, did not con sider the case a sufficient one to commit upon, and directed that the old woman should be discharged upon her finding bail, in the amount of 401., to appear when called upon to answer any charge which might be pre ferred against her. FIRE AT A SOAP FACTORY.—Yesterday morning, shortly before three o'clock, the extensive soap factory belonging to Messrs. Paton and Charles, 148, High street, Wapping, was discovered to be on fire. Owing to the immense size of the premises, and the large quantity of inflammable articles in the same, a most fearful con flagration was apprehended. There being an abundant supply of water flowing from the mains of the East London works, the land engines already on the spot were called into operation, and other engines of the bri gade and West of England Company coming up, the brigade men set to work most vigorously, but in spite of their exertions the flames continued to spread, and a long time elapsed ere they could be extinguished, and not until nearly 50 feet by 30 feet of the roof over the main f a ctory was burned off, and two vats, containing about four tons of tallow, were seriously damaged by fire. Fortunately Messrs. Paton and Charles were in sured in the SUR fire office. Mr. Superintendent Braid wood returns the origin of the fire to be owing to " the spontaneous ignition from the steam apparatus." Mr. Osman Ricardo had an interview with Sir G. Grey, on Saturday, at the Home-dace. T A C 1,7 Al r 's" . F.I;ETS LIVERPOOL, MARCH 17.—We have had good arrivals of wheat, oats, flour, Indian corn, and beans since Tuesday, and at the same time a slow demand for every article of the trade. We had several buyers of wheat from a distance yesterday, and a fair business was transacted at a decline, in a few instances , of Id to 2d per bushel; fine white and Polish wheat, however, brought the same prices as on Tuesday. Flour was 6d per barrel lower, and two or three parcels changed hands. There was no change in the value of oats, barley, or oatmeal. Beans and peas declined 6d per quarter. There was a moderately fair sale for Indian corn, but the price was scarcely so :good as on Tuesday.. Some transactions have taken place in Indian corn for Ireland at yesterday's prices. No change to note is the value of other articles of the trade since yesterday. MANCHESTER, MARCH I7.—Throughout the week our market has remained in a state of extreme depression, n o new feature having occurred to enliven the trade, and ti e value of almost all articles has consequently continued to recede. With the exception of 5,214 quarters of oats from Ireland, the imports thence and coastwise into Liverpool and Runcorn are on a very moderate scale. From abroad the arrivals of wheat are large, and of beans, Indian corn, and flour, fair supplies are reported. At our market this morning the greatest stagnation prevailed , and wheat further declined ld to 2d per 70Ib. In flour so little business was effected that its value is almost nominal; hoUlers would, however, have accepted offers at is per sack under the currency of this day se'nnight had buyers appeared, and we re' duce our 'quotations accordingly. Oats were again the turn cheaper ; and oatmeal, continuing to meet a very restricted sale, was offered at a reduction of 6d per load.

CORK, MARCH 16.—The weather during the week has beell remarkably fine, and most favourable for out-door work, i ll which great progress is being made. We regret to have to report continued dulnes s an d d epress i on in the trade throughou t the kingdom. Having already adverted repeatedly t o the causes of the depression, it is needless to repeat them here. We may, however, remar k, i n pass i ng, that as the arrivals el, foreign grain have fallen off, and are still falling off very con" siderably, we may naturally conclude that prices have at length reached the lowest point. The receipts of home-grown grain continue trifling. Wheat and oats (prime samples of the Ist' ter, which are in demand for seed, excepted) are lower in value, but barley remains the same. In prepared Irish whoa' no business has been done. In foreign a few transaction ) have taken place at low rates, but the general characteristi c of the trade is that of depression. We quote the asking pric e° of Marianople 26s per barrel, but we believe sales have been made at 255. We have no prepared barley offering. In pre" pared oats no sales have been made, and the market is wet" sively dull, at, nominally, the rates of last week. The trade in flour continues totally devoid of animation. The businese done in the article has been on the most restricted scale' while to effect sales, especially of fine flours, which are least in demand, a reduction of 6d per cwt would b e submitted to. For I n di an corn we experience a stea dy consumptive demand, and a fair business is doing a t late rates.
