lOflVTwil' 1-?, T CaIVIHEIWIAL CITY, Two o'CLoox. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday con- Ilittied fiat, and there was a difficulty in forcing sales, but prices could hardly be quoted lower. Ile sales amounted to 7,000 bales, including 1,000 for export and on speculation. In the Railway Share Market there was no variation. Advices from Breslau relative to the German Wool markets report an increasing amount of busi ness, as the period approaches when the clip of the season arrives in the market. In that city there is a larger assemblage than has been known for any years of buyers from France , H olland, and 4 tlgland. Already some large parcels of Silesian I te o l,' in grease, of the new shearing, has come to market, and changed hands at 88 to 95 rixthalers Per quintal best kinds, and, 75 to 88 ditto f or inferior. The growers of fine wools to delivered scoured are obtaining from i 110 to 125 rtthalers per quintal, which ; an improvement on the ruling prices of last year, ranging from Btol2r. d. per quintal. Re p orts 'rota the principal wool-growing establishments continue to state that the washing and shearing progresses favourably, and the result of the season ill likely to be above the average. At Berlin the c ontracts for the season have included nearly one half the wool expected from the principal establish reents in Prussia. The prices given for delivery i n July and August are, upon an average, 12 per eent, higher than they were last season. The weekly return of the Bank of England to t he 31st nit., as was generally expected, is of an encouraging character. The bullion and the re eery° of notes have both materially increased, and the other securities have shown a large falling off. 4 3 the money market is in a very favourable con dition, it is expected that future returns will be quite as satisfactory, notwithstanding there may he an occasional increase in the demand for money to provide for the instalments on the New Loan, the Revenue collections, &c. _ . _ ~. £19,554,360 .... 222,455 ..—. 11,384,656 •••• 825,852 Rest Decrease Publio Deposits Increase - 151,321 Other Deposits Decrease Seven-Day and other Bills 773.848 Increase Government Securities Increase Other Securities Decrease Notes unemployed Increase Active Circulation Increase Bullion Increase The official return of the exports of bullion from the Port of London for the week ending Thursday last is as follows :—Silver bars (Hambro'), 101,600 c'ences ; Gold bars (Belgium), 2,565 ounces.

DISTRESSING SUICIDE.—On Wednesday, at South Shields, Mrs. Souldsby, widow of a shipowner of that town, committed suicide immediately after the funeral of her husband.

The mourners after returning from the funeral had tea in the parlour of Mrs. Souldsby's house, Shortly afterwards she went up stairs, and her daughter following presently to comfort her, found her lying on the floor of the attic with her throat cut. She expired almost immediately. SIR COLIN CAMPBELL'S SWORD.—During last week the Glasgow sword of honour was inspected by no fewer than 16,000 person, in the Trades' Hall. Of these, 13,000 paid for admission, at the rate of Id. each, and 3;000 were admitted free—the latter including the mili- Lary, the pensioners, men returned from the Crimea, &c. We learn that Sir Colin ' who left the Crimea on the 10th May, was to make a brief sojourn respectively at Malta, Lyons, and Paris ; but he is expected in Eng land between the sth and 10th instant ; Sir Archibald Alison will be in communication with the veteran the Moment he arrives ; and it is probable that he will come to Glasgow for the presentation about the end of June or beginning of July.—Glasgow Herald. DAMAGE CAUSED BY VIBRATION FROM RAILWAY TRAINS.—In the Sheriff's Court, at Greenwich, yester day, Mr. Penny, a builder, at Lewisham, brought an ac Urea against the London and South Eastern Railway Company, for injury to his property, caused by the Passing of their heavy goods trains along the line close to a house belonging to him. The claim was made under the Lands Clauses Consolidation Act, 13th and 9th Victoria, chapter 20, the sixth clause of which provides compensation to be given by railway companies to owners and occupiers of premises "injuriously affected" by the construction of the railway. The walls had been cracked by the vibration which the trains created ; and th e noise, the overlooking, and the nuisance of letting off waste steam, was also complained of. The jury gave Mr. Penny £lO5 damages. ART-CRITICISM IN FRANCE.—WEAT NEXT ?—The Well-known French art-critic, Gustave Planche, has just been fined 500 f. by the Tribunal of Correctional Police for opinions respecting a picture expressed in the Revue des Deux Mondes. In an article on the exhibition of fine arts M. Planche severely criticised a Spanish artist, named Madrazo, for having, as he alleged , badly exe cuted portraits of the King and Queen of Spain, when in point of fact only one, that of the King, was exhi bited, the other being then at Madrid and incomplete— such criticism on a work not in the exhibition being, said the Tribunal, "calculated to lead the public into error, and by its bad faith to injure the professional con sideration of the artist." The Tribunal further fined M. de Mars, responsible editor of the Rave, 200 f. for having Published the article. • • rersa' t ear' soul )f hi wore 7erea :e t since It air s time r kin', en h e B styli' stated pi tted n. bet zatoo" he de' D 3 tha t mov ed d upo n We of g in re' a ver y of one rd, and ition of b i n' to will be a0c 0133 ; ova. 0-Inor" ey, a nd ADO' been re" an xiouil nd o ' l3° :utioner o of th e latching ie enter yen 1 04 ° elicit/ urd saß his eat* to opal to the anOt cl TT `tr:. liff A Te ° _.._~L ~ Y 6. tr.ltiald It.lloo Bit 9i iA all L3i all a I all il an 2 1 9 15 all it. 100 it. too i) all i 0 all i 0 all i 0 18 LO all 1.0 8 RAILWAYS. trabg. liottug.

SARDINIA. The Opinione of Turin says :—" We learn from Paris that M. Hubner has really presented a note to the French Government, reflecting severely on Piedmont. But, contrary to the assertions of the Belgian press these reflections have not been re ceived with favour ; the latest French notes ad dressed to de Government of Turin are conceived in the most friendly language, and by no means bear out the insinuations of certain. journals fa vourable to Austria." . General de Lamarmora arrived at Turin on the Ist, and was received at the station by the mi nisters and many senators, deputies, and members of the municipal council. The bill for a grant of land to General de la Marmara, as a national recompense, was adopted unanimously on the 2d in the Piedmontese Senate. The Piedmontese Gazette, of the 2d, publishes a Royal decree, promulgating the treaty concluded between Sardinia and Spain on the 3d of April last, for the purpose of defining the powers and attri butions of the consuls of the two countries.

'Ye have had the pleasure of witnessing a ♦ery suc cessful adaptation of Mr. Lee Stevens's patents for the prevention of smoke in open fire-places, at the extensive premises of Mr. W. Barton, 39, Oxford-street. A patent "deflector" has been added to one of Mr. Burton's beautiful radiating stoves, which thus becomes an article perfectly unique. The improvement consists in the admission of air from beneath the fire-place, through the back part of the grate, and thence into a hollow chamber, which is so contrived as to deflect the air in its then heated condition against the inner or back part of the fire, and to force it into contact with the carbonaceous gases, which are thereby converted into flame, instead of being rtllo wed to escape in the condition of smoke, so that whilst manifestly reducing the quan tity of smoke the heat of, the fire is proportionably in creased. To the eye the effect is not less pleasing or palpable, for while the front of the fire is always bright, upon the addition of fresh coal to it enlivening flames are projected upwards from the back of the grate, extending more or less from side to ,side in such a manner as to remind one of the action of a blowpipe, or to convey the idea that the fire must be fed with gas in some way from behind the stove. The effect is the same even when some coal-dust is thrown on ; and, in any case, if the effect be lessened from an excessive supply of fuel, it is instantly restored by slightly stirring the fire to give vent to the current of air from the deflector. With the material and appre ciable subversion of smoke, increase of heat, and addi tional cheerfulness of fire, we might well be content ; but the invention yields further advantages, of enabling a considerable substitution of small coal for large—in itself an important item ; of also preventing the fire from going out until all the fuel is consumed, and of causing the ashes to be shed at the back instead of the front of the fire. The invention is one of great merit and utility, and the public will feel indebted to Mr. Burton for introducing the invention in a form so well calculated to exhibit its merits. At no distant day we shall expect to Eee a general application of Mr. Lee Stevens's " de flector," as it is a perfectly unique article, and consti tutes the ne plus ultra stove for the drawing-room, and as the perfect success of the invention has been ascer tained in one of the most inferior description of open stoves beyond the possibility of doubt. EXTENSIVE FlRE.—This morning a fire of a very daring character broke out in the extensive premises of Messrs. Morton, patent wool manufacturers, in Holland street, Blackfriars-road. The premises of Mr. Apsley Pellatt and the adjoining property at one time stood in great jeopardy, but, by the unceasing exertions of the firemen, the conflagration was confined to the premises in which it had originated. The cause of the fire is at present unknown. CHARGE OF "BRAWLING" AGAINST A CLERGYMAN. — A commission, appointed by the Bishop of Exeter, to investigate a charge of brawling, preferred by Mr. Samuel Carter, jun., one of the churchwardens of Brampford Speke, against the Rev. Gecrge Cornelius Gorham, vicar of that parish, sat at the Chapter-house, Exeter, on Wednesday and Thursday. On the part of the complainant it was alleged that there having been some dispute about an inscription on the organ in the church a vestry meeting was to be called to consider the subject ; that Mr. Carter waited on Mr. Gorham, one Saturday evening, and asked him to sign the notice, which he refused to do, on account of the inconvenience of such visits at that period of the week ; that on the following morning the churchwardens affixed the notice to the church porch without the rev. gentleman's signa ture • and that when he entered the ch urch, on Easter Sunday morning, before commencing the service, Mr. Gorham went to Mr. Carter's pew, and in an angry tone, and with violent gestures, asked him how he dared to put up the notice without his signature, and peremptorily *ordered him to take it down, and bring it into the vestry for his signature, on pain of being presented to the arch deacon. For the rev. defendant many of the congrega tion were called as witnesses, who stated that they did not perceive any violent conduet on his part, and that they were not disturbed by what took place between Mr. Gorham and the churchwardens. Dr. Buford his ad. vocate, contended that no prima facie case for further in quiry had been made out, and the commissioners took time to consider. 95 i 78 i 1301 1 30 61i i 921 3 1041 -10 n i 14 931 i 78 i i bt.lloo Bt. 100 St. 1100 It. 100 1.2,i 74 10 all 3t. 100 20 I 12 1.00 It. 100 It. 100 !tOO 3t.

In Article 20 of the United States and English postal convention, it states that "in case of war between the two nations the mail packets of the two countries shall continue their navigation without impediment or moles tation until six weeas after a notification shall havebeen made on the part of either of the two governments and delivered to the other that the service is to be discon tinued, in which case they shall be permitted to return freely a nd under special protection to their respective ports." THREE MEN KILLED BY A BOILER.EXPLOSION.—Tbe steam boiler at Upton Mills, East Mating, in Sussex, belonging to Mr. Busbridge, blew up on Wednesday morning with a tremendously destructive effect. Two men were killed on the spot, and one died ,soon after wards from the injuries ho had received. The boiler, which weighed nine tons, was hurled a distance of sixty feet. The building was set on fire, and only a part of the property could be saved. We regret to announve (says the Malta Mail) the death by accident of Ensign Hamilton, of the Ist Royals. It appears that whilst the deceased was making his rounds on the night of the 24th May he missed his way, and fell over St. Paul's bastion, a height of thirty feet. The unfortunate gentleman was shortly after discovered by a brother officer, but he expired in seven hours from _ the effect of a fracture of the skull.

THE MURDER, OF MANY WHITE, OF .BUCKLAND MONAcircLuult. PeneezTH, Thursday.--1n addition to the particu lars which we publishes I yesterday of the confe .sion ui Craze, respecting the above murder, we are enabled to add the following : The poisoner was visited yesterday at the military prison by Allan Bane, Esq., the coroner who held the inquest on the unfortunate woman, and, in the presence of the governor of the military prison, ques tioned him as to the truth of his confession. To test the accuracy of his statement, a person was introduced and recognised by Craze as Corber, from which M.r. Bone conceived that the man's statement was a false one. lie was subsequently visited by Detec tive Thomas, of Plymouth, and Mr. Ilitchinsou, the superintendent of the Davenport police ; and on being interrog: ited by the firmer, gave accurate replies respect 'ing persions living in the neighbourhood of Tavistock. He then made the following statement — I have known Corber ; I have n3ct him several times at Tavistock. On a day (which he believed to be a Wednesday), I met Corber at a public-house in Tavis tuck (Graze gave the name of the public-house, and also that of the landlord, who is now dead). Corber drank several pints of beer, and was much in liquor. Hs then told me that he knew where an old woman was living down in Buckland, who had plenty of money ; that he kept her accounts, knew where she kept her cash, and if I would meet him there that evening he would share what he got. I left Corber just the other side of Ib'uckland, and we walked down the lane toge ther, =cried down on the left hand till we got. down in front of Mrs. White'e house. We then went up and pushed the door with our shoulders. The door easily opened o and we went through the kitchen. (lie then de scribes the staircase very minutely, saying it was boarded'. off of the kitchen—which was the fact.) He then continued—We found that Mrs. White was not in the house. We went in her bedroom and lay under the bed, Car ber having his cleaver with him. We heard the old woman come in about half-past ten or quarter before eleven. We were then under the bed, and remained there until she got to sleep, which we heard. (He thought it was by this time about half-past twelve.) We then got out from under the bed, and I went up to the right side of the bed, and Corber the other side. I put my hand on the forehead in this way (describing that he put his right hand on the forehead, and his left hand over the .mouth). Corber, who was on the ether side of the bed, n lade a chop with the cleaver, chopping her head alms ,st from the body, and the old woman never " squeake d " or struggled. The blood flew away to wards Corber and g ot on his shirt. Mr. Thomas here asked heir the old woman was lying, and he replied on the side of the bed next the window, and he (Craze twisted her head a little towards the window across the pillow (this was the state in which the woman was found). Mr. Thomas then asked him to describe the position of the bed, and the general state of the room.. Of this he gave a very good account, stated the shape of the bed, and gave a description of other areScles in the room. He continued —We then searched the room for money, and we found about £5O. Then we came down over the stairs, and we both made our escape out through the window, Corber =tying, " We won't go through the door, but throlugh the window:' (It will be remembered that the door was locked the following morning-) I turned up the lane, and Corber fastened the window. Shortly afterwards Corber followed me up the lane, and we shared the money. I then went to Tavistoeie , and proceeded thence to Plymouth. - (The man thee, 'bid what he had done since this fatal oc currence, and this shows, if he is to be relied upon, that he has be en since haunted by the murder with which he charges :aimself.) THE 'AMATEUR P ANT OMIME. --A second performance of the Amatear Pantomime will take place in about a fortniccht's time, most probably at Drury-lane Theatre. Already the applications for seats are most numerous, and, as the prices will be lower than on the previous occasion, a crowded house is anticipated. We believe that toe, proceeds of this and any subsequent perfor mances (some of which, at large provincial towns, are in contemplation) will be devoted to the foundation of a charitable fund, to be called "The Fielding Fund," for the immediate relief of destitute literary men. spirit of the Public Journals. (From the Morning Advertiser.) . . A LA7 reek 3 ago, when. t. , 11 our cont - omporaries 7: bri.)ito into raptures of adaiiij'ag at the• ',- dauntless attitude of the Beluian Ministry, on. the.' ' question of the liberty of the Press, this journal, alone spoke words of caution to the enthusiasts. We refined to allow our reason to• be led ,captive, by the c:. patriotic speech " of Count Vilain XITZ We begged our readers to recollect that the King . of thO Belgians is, - after all, a Coburg, .and thatlis act 3, for the last seven years past,half-a been re. marlable for anything but an energetic resistalice"."' l * to Bonapartist 'encroachments. We besought the : , friends of freedom not to indulge in the fond Ler lief that the danger is over, and warned them- that__ the daring speech of the Belgian Foreign Minister, which had been received with such thundering ap plause, might possibly have been extemporised more for the sake of the expediency of the moment than for the assertion of any fixed political charac ter or principle. _ _ _ A confirmation of our misgivings has already made its appearance. The echo of the enthusiastic scene in the Brussels Chambers bad hardly died out when, behold, the Moniteur Beige qualified-all this patriotic ebullition, by declaring that Count Vilain only meant to deny any change being con templated in the Constitution,—but that, as to the laws of the Press, " Government fully reserved to itself the liberty of proposing, at the.epportune, moment, any modifications ivflich might appear ne- eessary in the liberty granted to the Pres; -!" This explanation, by the official organ of King Leopold, appeared to us foreshadowing evil days. And our apprehensions were certainly not allayed when it became known that the communication in ithe Moniteur Beige had forthwith been " honoured" _ _ by a letter of Congratulation from Louis Bonaparte. It is true, it was urged at the time, by certain wise politicians, that the letter of congratulation had only been written for the purpose of backing out of an awkward position, and that, in reality, the Court of .the Tuileries had nothing to congra tulate itself upon in its relations with Belgium. On our part, our readers will remember, we re gretted we could not participate in so hopeful an opinion. We persisted in making known our ap prehension that treachery was lurkingiu the Royal chateau at Laeken. Unfortunately, if the recent news given by a contemporary can be relied on, our foreboding was not without reason ; and the less cheering view we Lai taken of the cha racter of the Belgian King was, after all, the one nearest the truth. Intelligence comes; ifideed, from Paris, to the effect that the project of a law against the press, intended to be laid before the new Chambers in Belgium, in pursuance of the engagements given by G6vermilent,. applies to three things in particular—viz., the stamp, the signing of the article with the Author's name, and the power given to the law officers of the Crown to institute proceedings without the ne cesity of a previous demand from a-foreign Go vernment." This short notice, if confirmed and realised, con taini the doom of Belgian liberty and independence. The enforcement of the stamp, or timbre royal, _ would degrade Belgian journalism to the position. of a badge-bearing servant of the Court. The signing of the article, in abject imitation of Bona partist law, would deprive the press of its prestige as an embodiment of political feeling. The con centrated action of the press, which now draws strength from its large and general character, would thus be neutralised, and the great ;or gans of political bodies be split up into a dis jointed collection of individual -opinions.: The third stipulation, that the Crown officers -ought to be empowered to act as prosecutors for foreign Courts, without these latter even officially asking for it, would definitively convert' the 'Go vernment of Belgium into a succursale . for all the despotisms in the world. In future, the'police of Louis Bonaparte, Francis Joseph, or Frederick William would only have to give some secret talis manic signal, and the Attorneys-General.of Belgium would require no further instruction:to propped on their work of persecution. Every tyrant would be enabled to gratify his vengeance. through - the me dium of the Belgian law, without attracting his duo share of the odium, or incurring the risk of defeat. Thus Belgium would constitute Itself the guardian of the sensitive " honcir'.', of the heroes of coups d'etat. We need not say how much the -introduction of such laws would be contrary to the spirit, of the fundamental statutes of Belgium. The. Decree of the Belgian Government of October 16;1830, as well as the section 18 of the Constitution,_are, in deed, in perfect contradiction to the impediments which, it is alleged, are in preparation against the freedom of the Press. Unhappily the character of the King is such that it is difficult to refuse credit to any rumour merely because it charges him with anti-constitutional projects. In his perseve rance of undermining gradually the liberties of the people, King Leopold but too much'reserables his late father-in-law, the worthless .Louis Philippe. The whole career of the King of Belgium . has been spent in continual exertions to get - rid of the ral party, and to. install the .party composed of Conservatives, Jesuits, and noblea, who look to Austria as the mainstay of politioal - ordek It may be said that this is a suicidal policy, - not:in accord ance with the shrewdness of mind King- Leopold undoubtedly possesses. Still it is a fact not to be denied that such has been his course of policy for twenty-five years. Instead of strengthening the Liberal principle, on which the national indepen dence of Belgium could be firmly based, the King has rather preferred satisfying his petty absolutis tic leanings, even at the risk of the security of his new-fangled dynasty. It cannot be alleged as an excuse for him that, in his chaaacter of a ruler of a weak state, he is compelle:l to follow in the wake of everyneigh boating despotic power. Were this principle of cowardly submission to be acted upon, the Belgians might as well have remained under the rule of the house of Orange ; for very little -their revo lution will have benefited them.". -.Having once established their independence, . it is necessary they watch ever it, otherwiSe "they . Wilt reduce it to an empty name, and—proptee:vitamevivendi verdere causas. Moreover, granting the fuliamount of the pressure that is brought to bear upon Bel gium, it must be borne in mind that the'very mul tiplicity of influences from abroad: is • Calctilated to have a neutralising effect, to a certain degree, upon each other. Be that, however, as. it may, in any case the King was not forced by foreign influence to educate his sons in bigotry the names of Jesuits ; neither did the force of .circurnstances compel him to intermarry his dynasty with the despotic and encroaching house of Hapsburg, the arch-enemy of Belgian independenee. Yet, all this has King Leopold done, and thus introduced the germ of decay into his kingdom. For him, the very moderate Ministry of Rogier . was - even too liberal, and he consequently brought about its fall, to make way for the extension of the influence of the Jesuit party—a party in open alliance And con spiracy with the Bonapartist tools. As to the designs the King is said to harbour at this moment against the liberty of the. Preis, we have not yet •been able to ascertain how far the in telligence given by the Times is founded in fact. It may be that the short paragraph which is now going the round, has been set afloat as a feeler, rather than with the intention of giving the exact terms of the intended law. And here we'will add, that the project our contemporary alludes to is, indeed, so nefarious, so thoroughly imprinted with the mark of the vilest despotism, and in such open hostility to the spirit of the Constitution of Bel gium, that low as we may estimate the worth of the Cobourg ruling there, we still cannot bring our selves to believe that he -holds his. own personal se curity so cheap as to exasp era t e hii.p e Ople by the display of this monstrous piece of kingcraft. True, the character of King L eo p o ld a ff or d s nq guarantee. Perhaps it would be more prudent VA' us to look alone to his sense of danger for any remnant he may possess of self-restraint to. .bise absolutistic policy. It now remains to be seen whether he will even do away with this also, and thus cut adrift the last anchor which secures the safety of his throne. • MARE'S BANKRUPTCY.—At the Bankruptcy Court, yesterday, Mr. J. C. Mare, the shipbuilder, passel his final examination.
