SILVER SUPERSEDED, and those corrosive and injurious metals called Nickel and German Silver supplanted by the introduction of a new and perfectly matchless ALBATA PLATE. C. WATSON (late ALDERMAN) 41 and 42, Barbican, aided by a person of science in the amal gation of metals, has succeeded in bringing to public notice the most beautiful article ever yet offered : possessing all the rich ness of Silver in appearance—with its durability and hardness —with its perfect sweetness in use—undergoing, as it does, a ehemical process, by which all that is nauseous in mixed metals is entirely extracted—resist . ng all acids, may be cleaned as Silver, and is manufactured into every article for the Table and Side board. , able Spoons and Forks, t Sauce Ladles ..... per doz l6 6 Tea Spoons, per doz... 1 6 Dessert. do., per doz l2 6 Gravy Spoons., 3 6 Soup Ladles 6 6 C. Watson begs the Public will understand that this metal is peculiarly his own, and that Silver is not more different from Gold, than his metal is from all others ; the Public will there fore have no difficulty in discovering the animus which directs the virulent attacks made against him, by a party who is drily suffering from the unparalleled success which has marked the progress of ins New Plate since its introduction. C. 'XV., unlike this party, courts comparison, feeling confident that the result will establish its pre-eminence. 41 and 42, BARBICAN, and at 16, NORTON FOLGATE. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

Aided by an eminent chemist, we have succeeded in purifying our material so that acids do not aticct it ; it is now so well known and appreciated that it is universally superseding silver in all its uses. The genuine metal, which is more durable than silver, can only be had at our warehouses. It is the same through out, and can he engraved and made in all the various articles that are in silver, from which it can only he told by reference to the stamp. Fiddle Threaded King's Pattern.

Heats, once It appeare I that the deceased, Daniel Cox, was a person greatly addicted to drink, especially when it could be procured without money; he s' as a man of about sixty years of age, and debilitated by hit intemperate habits. Still he frequented public-houses, annoying the guests by his entreaties fur drink, who, according to one of the witnesses, sometimes en deavoured to correct this propensity by giving the unfor tunate man portions of his beloved beverage into which various disagreeable ingredients had been infused. On the 3d of May he went to the house of Mary Scotney, the Cross Keys, at flawtrey, All Saints, about six o'clock in the morning. He was then quite sober. He drank several pints of beer, in some of which it is probable salts were in fused, as, accotding to the evidence of a very unwilling wit ness, Mary Sentney's servant, one or two ounces of salts had been in the cupboard shortly before the day in question, which were missing on the day, and the absence of which was nut otherwise accounted for. The prisoners Stanyon and Ash bridge came into the house in the course of the morning, and Stanyon left the house about I I o'clo k, and returned with tsvii ounces of salts ,s hich he had purchased at a neighbouring drug gist's. He, in Mary Scotney's presence, mixed each of these in half a pint of beer, and gave the infusion to the decea ed, who, after some demur at the nauseousness of the taste, drank it up. He was soon afterwards taken'very ill, and on the evening of the next day died. The medical evidence proved that, al though the body of the deceased, upon inspection, appeared greatly debilitated by age and the irregular habits of his life, the immediate cause of death was diarrhoea caused by the salts. Under the direction of the Learned JUDGE the Jury ac quitted Ashbridge, and fornd Stanyon Guilty, who, in conse quence of the very high character he had borne, was sentenced to be imprisoned for a fortnight only. With this case concluded the assizes at Huntingdon, and the Learned Judges proceeded to Cambridge, where, in the evening, the Commission was opened. Here (at Cambridge) there are about 15 prisoners for trial, and the civil business ►s likely to be heavy. round. Mr. Smith's fby Llimsel, out of Valence, 3 yrs—lfr. Ba con's Fairplay, 4 yrs—Col.

TIMES.—The premium on gold at Paris is Si per male, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 36/, and the ex change at Paris on London at short being 25 50, it follows that gold is 0.54 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Ilamburgh the price of gold is 430 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10 1 / 2 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 7/, and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13 9, it follows that gold is 0.69 per cent. dearer in London than in liamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London is 107/ per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows • that the ex ch,nge is 2.07 per cent. against England. But the quoted exchange at New York, being for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above difference. 0 6 1 0 By the official returns published by the Customs the exports of the precious metals to foreign and colonial parts for the week ending Thursday last, was as under, viz : Ounces. Silver coin to Calcutta 132,800 Silver coin to Launeeston Silver coin to Bombay 4,100 Silver bars to Bombay 20,609 Silver bars to Calcutta Gold coin to Calcutta A moderate amount of business was done to-day in the foreign exchanges. The rates upon Amsterdam and Paris re mained the same as last post, and on Hamburgh there was again an advance in the price. The St. Katharine Dock Company to-day declared a dividend of 2i per cent. for the hall-year ending the sth instant, making a reasonable allowance for the payment of the Income-tax. It was stated that the business of the dock had, as' compared 'with the former six months, participated to the extent of ten per cent, in the general increase of shipping entered into the port of London. The return setting forth this showed that the in crease in British shipping which has entered the port of London is 220, with 36,000 tonnage, while there is a decrease of 84 foreign chips. with 2,750 tonnage: thus making the rust in crease 136 ships, with 33,250 tonnage. The dividend due this day on the American Life Insurance anal Trust Company debentures has not been provided. These bonds, which of course have a preference over the shares, were introduced into London by various parties besides Mr. Jandon and Mr. Daer, the Vice-President of the Company; but the London agents, Messrs. Prescott, Grote, and Co., have not re ceived a line by the last packet to account for the neglect. It is more than probable, tint such has been the profligate ex. penditure of the Company's capital on speculations in stock and worthless mortgages, that there are no returns to pay the bond holde! s their interest. An atrocious and extraordinary attempt to murder was made on Saturday in the Rue des Trois Bornes, Faubourg du Temple. A journeyman mums, named n the above mColet, with a wife and six children, have lived for two street, ao3,ear Faubur . do Temple.sinvoeryrhuroblelod lodging s i C'let had for some time taken to ' drinking, neglected hi s wor k, and earn drunka n t ot l i l i s n t g g , oatndtomeet s (l t frequently,h e expenses habits, he by brutal treatment forced his wife to give him the major part of the small sums which she gained by washing. At length, in a tit of despondency, he ac knowledged to her his errors, expressed his conviction that she could live and mai ntain her childre n better with out him, and declared his de termination to shoot himself if she would give him enoug h to bu y a pistol. She en deavoured to divert his - t hou g hts fron t this gloomy prospect, and lead him to b etter resol utions. Her re monstrances, however, only revived his evil spirit, and he became so outrag e ous that she was compelled t o ' res i gn . to him all her little store. With part of the money he did purchase a pistol, powder, and ball, but with the rest he made himself completely drunk again. In this state he went home on Saturday morning with the pistol loaded, and instead of turning it against himself, presented it at the head of his wife. The poor woman _instinctively raised her hand to ward off the blow. The savage fired, and the ball, after passing through her hand, wounded her severely on the forehead. The sound of the -report brought in the neighbours, who found the poor wife extended bleeding' and senseless on the floor.. They detained the assas.in. and sent for the commissary of polies., who committed him t,•) prison. The wounded wife was carried to the hospital, where it has been ascertained that the wounds are nut mortal, but that it, will be necessary to amputate several of the lingers of hot . hand. The Goliath, 80, and Virago, a large class steamer, will he launched from the a„Ayard at Chatham on Monday, the 25th instant.

' - - - -- '— ' - —' HERALD.—The market has been heavy all day, and prices rather on the decline. The fact is attributed generally to the intelligence said to be received by pigeon express from Paris, of the conclusion of a treaty between Belgium and France, by which the former should bind herself not to admit British linens and linen yarn except on the same onerous conditions of duties as those imposed by the recent French ordonnance, whilst in return France consents to admit Belgian linens and yarns on the same duties as heretofore. Belgium besides, as ,aid, is to reduce the duties on French wines and brandies. Lord Palmerston's policy, if these accounts be true, would seem still to persecute the country. SUN. The upward tendency of the Funds has been checked, by the announcement that the commercial treaty had been concluded between France and Belgium. No doubt can exist that it. is based upon a principle hos tile to English commerce, and will to • a certain ma extent, have an untoward effect up„ini conversant with nufactures.

It is true, that large quantities of coal exist in .

TUESDAY EvENzNo.—To-day one of the most nume rous meetings in this city was held in the County Hall, for the purpose of considering the alarming . state of the country. The hour appointed ter t a ki ng the chair was twelve o'clock. Long before that hour an immense number of working men assembled outside the build ing, and on the doors being opened, a dreadful rush took place, and every part of the Hall was filled. Amongst those present, were the Rer. J. Watts, Bap tist Minister, Mr. Edger, Mr. Bromfield, Mr. Councillor May, Mr. Josiah Cash, Mr. J. Browett, Mr.,Hennell, Mr. Ramsay, Mr. Carter, Mr. Osborne, Mr. Brome, the Rev. Mr. Sibree, Mr. John Hands, Mr. Gibbin, Mr. Stephen Knay, and others. _ In a few minutes after it was moved b`• Mr.BROWLTT. and seconded by Mr. BROMFIELD, that Mr. C. White du take the chair. The motion was carried with applause, after which the Gentleman took his seat and said, the Mayor, who had called that meeting, was unfortunately prevented from attending, having had urgent business with the Govern ment upon some local affairs. lie then read the follow ing requisition, to which was appended names; of - the most respectable M4ll in the city, and which, to those who know Coventry, will be sufficient proof of the necessity of the case which called them out : '• To the Worshipful the Mayor of Coventry. " We, the undersigned, respectfully request that you will convene a meeting of the inhabitants of Coventry, at an early day, to take into consideration the alarming distress prevailing throughout the country, and to deter mine upon the best course to pursue in the present ewer .geocy. " Coventry, July 14, 15-12." (Signatures.) " In compliance with the above respectable and. nu merously signed requisition, I hereby convene a meeting of the inhabitants of this city and neighbourhood, to be holden - at the County Hall, on Tuesday, the 19th inst., at twelve o'clock at 110011, to take into consideration the subject above-mentioned. " W. HAWKES, Mayor. " Coventry. July 15, 1842." The CHAIRMAN then said no man in the land could now deny the existence of distress. The accounts from all parts of the country showed that the distress was daily increasing, that it was so in Coventry he and they . 'all well knew. Last night Lord Wharneliffe said it was not the intention of her Majesty's Government to bring in any measures of relief. The people must, therefore, look to themselves ; and if they would only back up the few good and great men in the House of . Commons, they might yet hope for relief. Ile most solemnly declared he stood appalled at the prospect of the winter. Mr. TsnNToN then came forward and read the follow inn- resolution ;—"That the appalling distress which prevails throughout the country is rapidly consigning the Industrious classes to the most alpet and degrading poverty ; and, by the destrirstion of the profits of trade, is absorbing the capital of the tradesman and manu facturer, and threatens to involve them in one corn men ruin. That the continuance of this state of , things must speedily occasion the disorganisation of society, and plunge the country into all . the horrors of convulsion and anarchy." Mr. Taunton, in a powerful address, proposed the resolution. He said they had now arrived at a time of the most awful im portance. It was high time, when fierce starvation stared them in the face—when the prattling infant had become a burden and a curse—when every tie, sacred and divine, was broken by the melancholy desolating poverty that was now felt by all classes—when all this was seen and felt, it was time to arouse themselves. Unless a thorough complete union now took place between the middle and working classes, beyond all doubt, there would be a dis organisation of society ; and he would say if such un heard of, unparalleled distress was to confine, there ought to be a disorganisation.—(Cheers.) There were many persons who said machinery was the cause of dis tress ; and he most sincerely deplored the system of Luiditis n, which wcull ( 6 troy machinery. Would they break up the railroads, and go bac': to the Nei/. horse? Would they, in fine, dispense with all the splen did efforts of genius and perseverence ? No, they would • not, they could not. It was utterly false to sae that ma chinery was the cause of their misery, and lie hoped that the working classes would not allow themselves to direct their vengeance against machiney, and in doing so please only their bitterest enemies. At this moment an immense crowd having arrived, • and the building being crammed to suffocation, a cry of adjournment was raised, upon which the multitude left the hall, and were addressed by the speakers from one of the side windows. Councillor Ilitomuni.o seconded the resolution. Not only were the weavers sufferitvg, but the watch makers were also in a most awful state of distress. That class of men had never been accustomed to want, but now they were suffering an commom with others. The nor. Mr. WATTS moved the second resolution, which Mr. J. Ilnowv.Tr seconded. Mr. BrefiN EY, a Chartist, moved the next resolution," and pointed out the inadequacy of Sir Robert Peel's beg gingeLox (the charity subscription) as a means of relief for the people. All they could get throughout England would be 100,0001, and would that procure food for one week ? No, it would not. The plan was only one of hypocrisy. lie was of opinion that the Government ought immediately - to open the ports and let in food. That was the first step to prevent the people from dying. He had no idea of saying that would remove all their wants, but it would, as he had said, keep the people from perishing ; and the plait ought, nay' must, forth with b e adopte---(Cheers)--or the consequences- would be appalling to contemplate. lie did not think that any great benefit would result from the tariff ; indeed, he firmly believed that the price of butcher's meat would not In reduced more than one halfpenny in the pound. The s l uno would apply to sugar, and all other articles upon which it was proposed to benefit them. It was nothing inure than a mere farce to say that the tariff would relieve them. They must have a real change in the whole system ; and, although that change might involve some trials and sacrifices, they must be met. Labour for the industrious etas -es would •be imptusible tinder the present system-; and unless the middle classes joined the working classes, ruin inevitably would come upon all. If this union did. not take place soon, they might rely upon it the aristocracy would have to pass through a revolution. The people - Wanted bread hear)—and bread they would have.—(Loud cheers.) He most sincerely implored the middle class to come forward. No man on earth could guarantee the pi ale of England while the people were starving. — (Cheers.) No soldiers, no yeomanry, no police, could save the property of the country from destruction, if millions were to be doomed to daily starvation. Mr. CASH, of the Society of Friends, seconded the re soluti,,n, which was carried. Ilse resolution was put and carried, after which the following important resolutions were agreed to: — "That, as the present House of Commons have con tumeliously rejected the prayers of the_ people for an abundant supply of food, and for the reform of the elec toral system, this meeting is of op inion that it is utt erly hopeless to expect substantial relief from that. body as I at founded upon the fore. , oint , resolutions, be for ! present constituted, and that, therefore, the following. petition,• this I warded to her most gracious Majesty the Queen:-- "'That, believing this country to be on th e eve of con _ vulsion, and being utterly without hope that the Leffis lature will accord justice to the starving milli ons, meeting does hereby call upon the Members-of this city, r n r oa t se tyr,a systemtbe ypeople,a rs of u m e nos lots in conjunction with other Liberal Members, to otter onaloav le:g.eirsylait'ioosnsiabnledotpoptohsei opposition a t° tio t ti he o a t r ' p i r a s e t :p bread-taxingconstitutional impediments i e throughn ts that tho the re octwheelsrejection or andtlie pci;thrpeorsoeorods' Government may be arrested prevention of all votes of supply." The day was exceedingly unfavourable, the rain f 11'n torrents; but so intent were the poor fellows who had assembled, that they stirred not during the whole time of the addresses. At Manchester in many of the tradesmen's windows placards are placed, announcing f` No assessed taxes, nor Inc "" - tax paid here." Crowds of j operatives and their families from Stockport and other_tovvns, flock a distance of seven miles to obtain relief, in the shape of on and food, at Manchester.

Thomas M' Cann and John Swinburne were indicted, the former for a robbery in taking away sixteen gold watches from the window of Messrs. Reid and Co., watchmakers, in this town, and the latter for receiving the said watches, knowing them to have been stolen. _______ ______ Mr. Ingham and Sir Gregory Lewin were for the prosecu tion • Mr. Granger for the defence. Mr.i INGHAM proceeded to detail to the Jury the particulars of the evidence as detailed by the witnesses. The principal witness would, he said, be an accomplice of the name of Reeves, who had been admitted Queen's evidence. On his testimony, therefore, they would not place implicit reliance unless it was so far corroborated by that of others as to give them reason to suppose he was the witness of truth. He thought, however, that the, evidence he would lay before them presented abundant proofs of corroboration. There was a great deal more in his brief with which he would not trouble them, inasmuch ss it did not tend to corroborate the accomplice in matters tending directly to show the guilt of the other prisoner, but rather 'in points bearing on what was not disputed—viz., his own par ticipation in the crime. The prisoner is, it would appear, a watchmaker, and has for a great number of years been in a respectable way of business in the market-place in the city of Durham. It appeared that on the evening of the 4th of Fe bruary last, about half-past five o'clock, an aperture was made in a pane of:the window of Mr. Reid's shop, and the contents of a small tray, containing sixteen French gold watches, ab stracted. They were worth about 1501. Three men had been seen about the window immediately before, and two witnesses deposed as to Reeves having been one of the party. One wit ness also identified M.Cann. Samuel Reeves, the accomplice, was then called, and he stated at length the facts contained in the opening speech of the Counsel for the prosecuti')n. Evidence was given to show that three men, of whom Al‘Cann was one, were seen together in earnest conversation in Gateshead about the time and place mentioned by the wit ness. It appeared also that Swinburne had been in Reeve? company at a public house that morning, as Reeves himself had stated; and Mr. John Hutchinson, the town-clerk, deposed that he called in at the shop of the prisoner about the time mentioned in Reeves' evidence. He stated, however, that Swinburne was at the time at work with his sons at the bench at the window. There might have been another man in the shop, but there certainly was not a woman. Mr. GRANGER. addressed the Jury for'the defence in a long speech, in which he minutely analysed the evidence. The Jury retired for about half an hour, when they re turned a verdict, finding 111 Tann Guilty, and acquitting Swinburne. Sentence wai deferred. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. John Dale, the mendicant with a wooden leg, who used to sweep a crossing at Cornhill, was brought before Sir Chapman Marshall, charged with the misdemeanor of attempting to commit suicide, by jumping from Blackfriars-bridge into the Thames. Magnier, the City police constable on duty on the bridge, stared that the prisoner jmnped from the centre arch, at four o'clock in the afternoon, and he was cart led down by the tido as far as Paul's-wharf, where he was picked up. The leap was 70 to tiO feet. The marshalman said he knew the prisoner, and had heard a good deal about him. His distress was owing to his miscon duct. He obtained a good living by sweeping the crossing, but he ran away:to Ireland, threw his family on the parish, and lost his sweeping ground. His son, who supplied his place, had received as much as five shillings in a day. Sir CHAIPMAN MARSHALL asked the prisoner how he lost his leg?—The prisoner replied he lost it at Quebec five years ago. - Sir CHAPMAN MARSH ALL said, if he hail any knowledge of the Lord Mayor he need not have resorted to suicide on ac count of his distress. He had some suspicion that the liberality of the public to parsons who had made similar attempts might have prompted this ; and if he were satisfied of that he should follow the example of Sir Peter Laurie in committing him for trial for the offence. As, however, he might have been im pelled by distress of mind alone, he should not adopt that course. The family would receive proper attention if they ap plied for admission to the poor-house of the union in which they resided. He discharged the prisoner with an admonition, and directed the officer to take him to St. Giles's Union. (.71,ERKEN I VE Mr. Thomas St. George Lyster, a gentleman, residing at 39, Adelaide-place, St. Pancras, appeared on a warrant to answer a c!.arge of assault preferred against him by William Attwood, conductor:of the-Paddington omnibus, 4,663, badge 865. The parties were before Mr. Greenwood on Saturday, when Mr. Lyster charged the conducter with having used abusive language, upon which the latter was convicted and fined 13s. The present charge arose out of the same transaction. Complainant said that. on Wednesday last he took up Mr. Lyster at Argyle-street, King's-cross, and on arriving at the Blue-coat Boy, Islington, where they stopped, he (complain. ant) opened the door to let out two passengers. When these had alighted he closed the door, but in less than a minut- af.er, the defendant opened the door and jumped out of the omnibus in a violent passion, stating his de:erminztion not to go any further with witr.ess. The dcfendant then proceeded towards another omnibus, but witness followed him and demanded his fare, the only answer to which was a violent blow in the face, accompanied by the use of several opprobrious epithets. Mr. Lyster, in answer to the charge, said that the conduct of the driver anti conductor of the omnibus from the time be took his seat in it until they arrived at the Blue-coat Boy was so scandalous that he felt himself bound to remonstrate with the complainant very sharpy, in which remonstrance he was joined by the other passengers. The driver had been racing nearly the whole of the way with another omnibus. A lady had nearly been 'seriously hurt by the sudden jerking of the vehicle before she could take her seat, whilst other ladies were so much terrified and alarmed by the furious speed at which they were being driven, that they left the vehicle on the first opportunity. He (Mr. Lyster) determined-also to leave the, omnibus at the first stopping-place, and accordingly he got out at the Blue-coat Boy; but he positively denied having struck the conductor. That person having impudently laid hold of his (defendant's) collar, he merely raised his hand to disengage himself from the grasp of the fellow. Mr. Matthews, a builder, who happened to be passing at the time, and said he saw the whole of the occurrence, positively declared that. the complainant seized Mr. Lyster by the coat collar, and as positively denied that that gentleman struck the complainant.. . Mr. Cost az said the evidence was certainly most perplexingly contradictory. The witnesses on each side were equally posi tive, and moreover were equally disinterested parties. He hid no doubt that the conduct of the omnibus people had been out rageously bad, and he (Mr. Combs) himself was almost daily a witness of the abominable and dangerous nuisance of omnibus racing, particularly along the New -road. Under the circum stances he should merely fine Mr. Lyster Is. and costs. GREENWICH POLICE. Yesterday Dennis Clement was placed at. the bar before Mr. Jeremy on the charge of catt*ing the death of Bridget Holloway, a woman with whom he lived at a house in Smith's rents, Greenwich. It appeased b 3 the evidence of Sophia Vincent. who lived in an adjoining tenement, that she heard cries of !! murder !" about six o'clock on the evening of Sunday, the 10th of July ; that she had subsequently seen the deceased, who complained that the prisoner Clement had given her a great heating, and she was sure that he had given her ' 5 her death-blow." Thomas Oak Mitchell and Mr. Burridge, surgeons, gave similar testimony to that which appeared on the first inquiry at the Coroner's inquest—viz., that the fourth, fifth, and sixth ribs had been fractured, and that the pointed and jagged evils of the fifth and sixth ribs had lacerated the left lung. which had caused inflammation, which was the proximate cause of the deceased's death, and which they hart not the slightest. doubt had been done by violence. Mr. JEREMY having cautioned the prisoner, Clement said that he did not know anything of the injure; the deceated had received ; that she had lived with !Aim as his wife, and that he had always treated her well ; but she was in the habit of getting drunk and falling about. However it appeared that the prisoner wished to get a cer tificate from the Registrar of Deaths, and also from Dr. Mitchell, which was prevented by the reports in circulation. And Mr. Js:sFMY folly committed Clement for trial at the Central Criminal Court, notwithstanding the summons Mr. Carttar issued for the appearance of the primer on the adjourned inquest. As some workmen were lately digging a trench tor the foundation of a barn, in the commune of Bielle, in t h u valley of Ossan, they came on some ancient tombs, placed ox a sort of platform of exceedingly hard cement, about 14 feet Englirh in length, and five. in widtlL Over this cement was placed a sort of flooring; formed of pieces of marble of various colours, arranged in mosaic, and offering to the eye landscapes very neatly and regularly represented.

The additions made to the life policies granted by this Cor poration for the last seven years vary from 41 to 65 per cent. on the premiums paid, and average 14 per cent„ or two per cent. per annum on the sums assured—a result, it is believed, more favourable than any other Company (mutual or proprietary) has hitherto accomplished, when the low rates of premium charged by this C•nmpanv are taken into consideration. The next division of life profits will take place in December, 1846, being an interval of five years, and persons entering be fore the Ist of August next will enjoy one year's additional rating, and rank at next division of profits for five complete years. To facilitate loan transactions a reduced scale of rates with out profit has been adopted. The rates and other particulars may be ascertained at the above offices, or at any of the Com pany's Branch Establishments throughout the kingdom. F. G. SMITH, Secretary.
