L.. _, ~ Yesterday Thos. Wm. John Corrigan, a. respectable looking man, about 30 years of age, was brought before Mr. Ingham, a t th e Thames police-court, Stepney, charged with the wilful murder of his wife, Louisa. The investigation was one of a most painful descrip tion, and excited great interest in a crowded court. The prisoner is a man rather under than over the middle size, with a somewhat mild-looking countenance, not indicat ing any want of humanity. He has been for many years in the employ of the East India Company, at their ware houses in Leadenhall-street, in the capacity of "com modore," or foreman, and lived on tolerably good terms with his unfortunate wife up to the time of her murder. Four young children were the offspring of the marriage, who are all living. The first witness called was Mr. Andrew Gernon, an inspector of police, H division, who said—Yesterday afternoon the prisoner was brought to the station-house in Leman-street by two City policemen, who said he bad stabbed his wife. I asked where she was, and was in formed that she was at Dr. Cooke's surgery, in the Minories. I went there, and found the woman lying on a sofa in the surgery, quite dead. There were two wounds on her left shoulder, a large and a small one, and a very deep wound on the left breast. I afterwards proceeded to the house of Mr. E. Burton, optician and mathemati cal instrument maker, 47, Church-street, Minories, and was shown into a bed-room where the prisoner's wife had been wounded. The bed clothes were stained with blood, and there was blood on the floor. Clara Brown, servant to Mr. and Mrs. Burton, stated that on Wednesday afternoon, about 4 o'clock, she was going up stairs in her master's house, and saw Mr. Cor rigan with a kife in his hand going towards her master and mistress's bed-room. She screamed aloud for help. Inspector Gernon here produced a new clasp knife stained with blood, and the witness Brown said the knife which the prisoner had in his hand was such an one as that produced, but she did not take particular notice of it. The prisoner did not seem to be in a passion, and said nothing. Directly after he rushed into the bed-room, she heard loud screams from Mrs. Corrigan and Mrs. Fearon, who were both in that apartment. Soon afterwards Mrs. Corrigan rushed down stairs, and her gown appeared to be cat about the shoulders, and there was blood upon it. Mrs. Corrigan waited at the street door fora policeman a short time, and then went, away. In answer to questions by Mr. Ingham, the wit ness said that, when she saw the prisoner, he walked slowly towards the bed-room where his wife was. She bad known him to visit her master and mistress occasionally. Mr.lngham asked the prisoner if he would ask the wit ness any questions, and he replied in the negative. Mrs. Elizabeth Fearon, a respectable woman, who bed been wounded by the prisoner while she was attempting to rescue the deceased from his fury, was here led into court and accommodated with a seat. She appeared greatly agitated, and after being sworn appeared in a state of hysteria. Mr. Cooke applied some restoratives, and said she would be able to give evidence in a few minutes. The prisoner, on seeing the weakly condition of the witness, was much affected. He buried his face in his hands, and sobbed aloud. Mrs. Fearon, after the lapse of some time, said she was a married woman, and lived at 39, Nichols-square. This was said in a low tone, and she was unable to utter another word. The agitation of the prisoner, his sobs and groans, were quite painful to see and hear. Mr. Ingham, having waited for some time, begged of Mrs. Fearon to state what she knew of the affair in as few words as possible. She uttered a few words, which were quite inaudible to Mr. Pyer, the chief clerk, and to. our reporter, who was seated near him. At last the witness fell back in her chair and fainted. She was removed into the clerk's loom, and attended by Mr. Cooke, and a loud and piercing shriek was directly afterwards heard to proceed from the room. Mrs. Ann Burton, who had also been wounded by the prisoner, and was also greatly agitated, was next led into the court, and accommodated with a chair. Mr. Cooke having given his opinion that she was able to give evidence, she was sworn. She said that the prisoner and his wife had been on a visit to her on Christmas day and Boxing-day. On Wednesday, afternoon, while she was preparing tea in her parlour, she heard loud screams issuing from her bed-room on the second floor. She hastened to the room and found the prisoner there in a very excited state with a knife in his hand, and partly kneeling on the bed and making blows at his wife, who had fallen back on the bed. IVitness rushed forward and caught his hand, and also fell upon his arm, and kept him in that position for some time until her husband, Mr. Daniel Marney, and others came to her assistance. They all tried to get the knife from the pri soner, who made a great resistance. At last Mr. Fearon came into the room and wrenched the knife out of the prisoner's band. Mr. Fearon delivered the knife to witness, and she locked it up in an iron cafe, and after wards delivered it to Mr. Gee-non. The knife was pro duced, and identified by Mrs. Burton, who said she was too much excited on Wednesday afternoon to nctice if ;here was any blood upon it when she received it of Mr. Fearon, but when she took it out of the safe she remarked it was covered with blood. Witness was cut in the hand in attempting to take the knife from the prisoner. She did not recollect anything afterwards. In answer to questions by Mr. Ingham the witness said Mr. and Mrs. Corrigan spent part of Christmas-day with her. The prisoner was very reserved on Christmas day, and looked very serious. Mrs. Corrigan slept a ith witness on Tuesday night, and the male visitors remained up all night. On Wednesday morning Mrs. Corrigan, who was accompanied by Mrs. Fearon, went home to her residence in Selby-street, Waterloo-town, Bethnal green, to see her children. The prisoner called in her absence, and asked for his wife ; and witness, not then knowing she had left, told him to go right up stairs and seek for her. He then looked round very curiously, and appeared in a very abstracted mood. As he was leaving the house, she said, " Where are you going to ?" to which he replied, "Home." That was an hour and a halt before the murder was committed. Mr. Ingham—Do you know of any unpleasantness existing between the prisoner and his wife, or any com plaint on his part relating to her ? Mrs. Burton—Not any, sir. On Christmas-day the prisoner was particularly quiet ; very quiet, indeed. He was in general a quiet, reserved man , but on Christmas day he was quieter than usual, and I rallied him upon it, and applied some name to him, which I now forget. Mr. Ingham—Where was the prisoner on Christmas night ? Mrs. Burton--He was in the parlour with my hue baud and other male visitors ; Mrs. Corrigan slept up stairs along with me. Mrs. Fearon was again led into court, and seated. She teas so exhausted and so much agitated that, note ith standing restoratives and stimulants were constantly ap plied to her by Mr. Cooke, she could only speak in a low whisper ; and Mr. Ingham kindly stooped by the side of her chair, and received her evidence that way, and repeated it aloud, as follows, for the information of Mr. Pyer, the chief clerk. The magistrate said :—The witness says that she and the prisoner's wife had just returned from Beth nal-green to Mr. Burton's house in a cab, and went up stairs. The prisoner's wife was untying her bonnet, when they heard something click like the opening of a knife. Mrs. Corrigan called out, "Is that you, Tom ?" Tae prisoner ma d e no reply, but rushed into the room, separated me and his wife, and got between us and struggled with her. She finally fell on the bed, and he closed in upon her, and I thought he was punching her. I was surprised, and went in between them, and said, What are you quarrelling for ?" He took no notice of me whatever. I put out my left hand to save the pri soner from striking his wife. I struggled a few minutes more with the prisoner, and found my hands wet with blood. I then became conscious he was using some in strument. I rushed out of the room shrieking, "He has =Herod her !" I did not at that time see an} - thing in his hand. When I screamed and said "He has murdered her," Mr. and Mrs. Burton, my husband, and a Mr. Marney came up. I rushed towards the doctor's shop, and Mr. John Marney followed me, holding my arm, which was cut. I told Mr. John Marney to look to the prisoner's wife. When we got three or four r lnd .: : u e, n ea d tniy a ti n f d epihi saw vve x t h ee ea wentpn e i d s 0 0, yard s f rom the house I heard a loud scream. I looked n n L'Bs theets wife , a few yard s b e hi n d doctor's, neta thinking a n d almost base only fainted. Mr. Cooke's assistant began bathing my arm. I then saw it was very badly cut. I did not dare to look at it before. I clasped it with my other hand all the way to the doctor's shop. The i nto prisoner • ' s four wife was brought the do c t or ' s s h op by fo men. I saw her brought in, and left the room. I had noticed, h. fore I left the prisoner's wife, that there was a cut in her dress, I did not notice anything more of what hap pened. As soon as I got to the doctor's shop, I saw she had a cut on the arm, but saw nothing more. Mr. logham asked the witness to turn round and look at the prisoner for the purpose of identifying him, but her terror was so great that she was afraid to do so. At length she was raised from her chair, and was being led out of the court, when she wildly rushed towards the dock in which the prisoner stood, and stretched out the arm that was not wounded to shake hands with hi m. The prisoner eagerly leant forward, naught her hand i n hi s, and exclaimed, "God bless you. H e then gave w ay again leant over the ed ge of to a paroxysm of grief, and buried hisface in • his hands. As Mrs. Fearon was being led into the the dock in a stooping position, and b • d clerk's room, she exclaimed, "Oh, my arm/ my arm," and fainted away. Mr. Edward Burton, optician and mathematical in strument maker, of 47, Church-street, Minories, who lost all self-possession when he entered the witness- For,e and was swo rn , was d es i re d b y th e mag i s t ra te to be seated, and said—The p r i soner i s no re l a tion of mine, but I have known him some time. On Christmas night we were as happy and as convivial as possible, and when the hour grew late I advised Mrs. Corrigan to sleep with my wife, make herself as comfortable as pos sible, and go home early in the morning. The prisoner remained up with me and some friends. I made him as comfortable as I conld.r. We had tea and coffee in the morning, and shortly before nine o'clock he went to his Place of business qu it e co ll ecte d . At half-past two clock in the afternoon be came into my room, and he inquired f or h i s wife, He was very excited, and I said to him in a joke " Your wife is i n th e next room," al though I knew she was g o ne h ome to see her children, in company with Mrs. Fearon. He went into the bed room, came out again, and went down stairs directly. I remarked how distant he was in his manner. We gos sipped until four o'clocir, and I t o ld ray servant girl to get the tea ready. A few minutes afterwards the pri soner came into the room where I was, and said Mrs. Corrigan and Mrs. Fearon bad just come home in a cab. He made no other remark. The two females went into my bed-room to take off their bonnets and shawls. I sat down with the two Marneys and Mr. Fearon, my brother-in-law, and we were in social conversation together, when I heard some screams from the ad joining room, which is my bed-room, and, to tell the truth, I thought the screams were in fun ; b u t the Bank of Westmorland, Kendal Barnsley Banking Company, Barnsley Bradford Banking Company, Bradford Bilston District Banking Company, Wolver hampton Bank of Whitehaven, Whitehaven Bradford Commercial Banking Company, Bradford Burton, Uttoxeter, and Staffordshire Union Banking Company, Burton-upon-Trent Chesterfield and North Derbyshire Banking Company, Chesterfield Cumberland Union Banking Company, Work ington Cheltenham and Gloucestershire Banking Com- Co p v o e n n y tr ' y C an h d el l t V en a h rw am ickshire Banking Company, Coventry Coventry Union Banking Company, Coventry County of Gloucester Banking Company, Chel tenham Carlisle and Cumberland Banking Company, Carlisle Carlisle City and District Bank, Carlisle Dudley and West Bromwich Banking Company, Dudley 37,125 Derby and Derbyshire Banking Company, Derby Darlington District Joint Stock Banking Com pany, Darlington East of England Bank, Norwich 25,430 Gloucestershire Banking Company, Gloucester 151,388 Halifax Joint Stock Bank, Halifax 18,107 Huddersfield Banking Company, Huddersfield 35,675 Hull Banking Company, Hull 26,767 Halifax Commercial Banking Company, Halifax 12,488 Halifax and Huddersfield Union Banking Com pany, Halifax Helston Banking Company, Helston Herefordshire Banking Company, Hereford ...

For the general imp its and the rest of our exports the official value could alone be given. It is well known how much the dissati4ac. tion of the public was increased, year by year, at th continuance of a value for such important portions of our foreign commerce according to rates fixed so long back as the year 1694. A Trsasury minute in October, 1854, directed the Commissioners of Customs to introduce a system by which the real values, hitherto wanted, should be com puted upon the basis of the actual prices. Mr. Mes senger, the Inspector General of Imports and Exports, was charged with this important service ; and a new system is commenced in the present accounts. The ave rage annual prices fixed fur the valuations are, pine], pally, those of the Loudon and Liverpool markets. In e .ch place one gentleman was specially employed to ob tain prices for the Custom-house. Many of the princi pal merchants and brokers were consulted, and also some of the Chambers of Commerce. All the aid applied for at the hands of the mercantile gentlemen was most willingly furnished, and often not without considerable trouble. The prices used and specified in the accounts are for the articles in bond, including all the charges of freight and landing, but exclusive of the duties. The total value of our imports in 1854, as computed by the old and neyv systems, shows the following e , .. ):11 . parison Old official value £124,338,478 New computed real value... 132,591,513 The coroner here cautioned the witness not to commit himself, and told him he might decline to answer any questions that were put to him if he pleased. The witness, after this caution, said he came down to see the fight, and it had begun when he arrived. He was not in the ring, and did not second either of the parties, and took no active part in the fight. The coroner—Can you tell us who the seconds were ? Witness—l only know Massey ;he seconded Madden. Examination continued—l know a man named Sayers. I saw him in the ring ; be acted as second to Madden, j dutly with Massey. Jeremiah Noon was in the ring, and he seconded Jones ; another man seconded Jones but I don't know his name. No other persons were in the ring but Jones and Madden and the four seconds, and no other person interfered. I did not rye a time keeper. I did not see a watch all the time. (A. laugh.) Coroner—Was it a fair stand-up fight ? Witness—Quite fair. I did not see anything foul. The last thing I saw was that Jones get off his second's knee laughing, and blows were exchanged, and he went down, but I don't know what caused him to fall. He was lifted up by his seconds, but I don't know what be came of him. The fight was then declared at an end. By the Coroner—Witness was quite sure that none of the persons outside the ring interfered in any manner with the fight. About 2,000 persons were present. He heard of the death of Jones on the following day. He bad heard the other man, who seconded Jones, called by the name of "Sweepy." The Coroner then inquired of Lillywhite, the consta ble who had the case in hand, whether there were any other witnesses. Lilly white replied that he had not been able to ob tain any further evidence. The coroner then brieflycalled the attention of the jury to the facts that had been laid before them that day, and to the former evidence that had been adduced. It ap peared, as has been already stated, that on Tuesday, the 11th Dec., the deceased and Madden came down in a steam-boat, with some 3,000 other persons, to fight a prize battle for 501. a-side, and the ring was formed in the Marshes a short distance from Dartford. The fight lasted but one hour, and it would seem that the deceased had all the best of it, and punished Madden in a most dreadful manner, until the last round, when, after a struggle he fell, and became almost immediately insen sible, and died about two o'clock the same night. Dr. Culhone, a medical gentleman residing at Dartford, was promptly on the spot, but he found that his assist ance must necessarily be unavailing from the cm dition of the deceased ; and he gave his opinion that the cause of death was effusion of blood upon the brain, occasioned either by a blow or a fall, but no doubt acceler a t e d b y th e s t ate of excitement in which the deceased was from the struggle in which be was engaged. He then explained the law bearing the parties actually e t h n e ga e g y ed e in of t t h h e e st i a ru w g , upon such a case, and said there was no doubt that all Present might also b e i nc l u d e d i n the g a le nd w t e b r a e t gu ev il e ty n c to h lti a olti r s g ea e nw . shia l ou i gw e ecroenPclrudsel by stating that the evidence ap peared clearly to point t o fi ve persons as having taken an ac ti ve part in the transaction, and it appeared to him itgliat a the jury their duty in return ing identified againsti the pa r ti es w h o otjduiorty of fould manslaughteronly loe d had been actually a s b e i ng concerned in the illegal transaction which had resulted in the death of the deceased. When the Coroner had concluded a juryman addressed him, and said be thought it right to inform him that one of the jurymen who bad been sworn upon the present inquiry, he was informed, was present at the fight. The Coroner said if such were the fact, he was very sorry indeed for it, and he could not help obs erv i ng t h at any juryman who was in such a position had most grossly , t m i o i s u e , o b n e d o u a c u t s e e d i l t i i m w s o e u l l f d . b H h e e his n sd duty y r i t g o h t g i t v o e a a s k o a t h u e q t i eu u ques tion, the same time that the party was not bound to answer it.

A ROMANCE OF REAL LIFE.—Some years ago a banker, supposed to be wealthy, resided in a well known borough town, of considerable magnitude, in the west of England. The bank, however, failed, and the banker died, leaving behind him a lovely and highly accomplished young lady, his daughter, penniless. She at one time took to the stage, and, possessing a charming voice, a beautiful person, together with considerable talent, she was very successful. In or near the same town there resided, at the same time, a worthy gentleman upwards of 60 years of age, unmar ried, but having three daughters by his deceased wife. He engaged the banker's daughter as a companion fur them ; but he himself became so enamoured of the banker's and Co. ____ll 275 Manning - tree Bank, Manning -tree—Nunn and ' 66,575 Which shows an excess of £23, 9 53,035 or 225 per cen real value of I Co. .............

Afterwards they went abroad, and resided for some time in a town on the coast of Spain ; but ultimately he returned to England, and bought a villa on the banks of the Thames. While residing here, a young clergymen of the. Church of Englaud, belonging to the Low Church or Evan gelical party, was a frequent visitor to the house, and accompanied them on visits or excursions. One day while sailing on the Thames, the boat or yacht was upset. The old gentleman caught his young wife in his arms, and sustained her in the water as long as possible, calling out to the young clergyman to swim towards them and "save her !' and he then sank to rise no more; but the clergyman had reached the lady, and making desperate efforts he saved her from a watery grave. Some months afterwards she gratefully presented the preserver of her life with her hand, and an income left to her by her first husband of 2,000/. a year. Subse quently they came and resided in a small town on the sea coast, not a thousand miles from Brighton. Here he was rector of the parish, and built a most noble parsonage house, at a cost of 5,0001., on glebe land, where he re• sided. He had, at the instance, it is said, of his wife, abandoned th e L ow Church for the High Church party, and gave great offence to some of the old parishioners by the changes he introduced, being what his termed a " Puseyite," or "Tractarian ;" but within the last few days this gentleman has embraced the tenets of the Roman Catholic Church, and re canted, it is said, what he now considers the errors of Protestantism. He ceases, of course, to be a clergyman of the Church of England. All his effects at the parsonage-house are to be sold ; and he loses, we be lieve, all interest in the parsonage-house ; and be and his family, it is said, are about to proceed to Italy. As a married man, he cannot be a priest in the Catholio Church, and therefore cannot administer at the altar ; but we believe that in some similar cases converts have been permitted to preach, and that may be all he may desire. This " conversion," or, as some will term it, "perversion," has made as great a sensation in the Chureh as didfthe conversion of Arch deacon Manning, who is the intimate friend of the gentleman we have been speaking ot, and who, as it is said, was instrumental in his " conversion."—Brighton Examiner.

MICHAEL, Acting Registrar of Bank Returns, Inland Revenue, Somerset House, Dec. 22, 1855. 29,361 A Berlin letter of the 22d, in the Pays, says : " I have at present something positive and impor tant to announce. I a short time since stated that the mission confided by the King to Count Munster was a happy symptom of the dispositions of his Ma jesty. At present I have good reason for believing that these dispositions are about to be manifested by a still more significant act. Our political men have been struck by the complete change which has taken place in the language of several States of the Confederation, and they have not learned with out a certain degree of emotion that Sweden and Denmark, uniting their efforts to those of Austria and Germany, have made pressing representations to the Emperor Alexander, to induce him to ac cept the propositions of peace which are about to be submitted to him. This movement, the com mencement and, to a oertain extent, the direction of which belong to Austria, has not found the King of Prussia indifferent, as I learn that Prussia joins her efforts to those of Austria to influence the Emperor Alexander. But she will not send a spe cial envoy to St. Petersburg, as the Prussian Am bassador at the Court of Russia will be charged, I am assured, with the task of supporting, in the most pressing manner, the propositions sent by count Egterhazy." _229,821,656 .. 18,643,978 11,262 The old value being in excess by or 38 per cent.
