1110 N E YMARKET I~D COWIERCI_A-L INTELLICIENCL, CITY, Two o'CLooN The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday was very dull, and prices of American wore d. per lb. lower. The sales amounted to 7,000 bales, 1,500 for export. The Railway Share Market was buoy ant, and prices of some of the leading stocks ad vanced. Further accounts to the 31 inst., from Berlin re . lative to the construction of international railways between Prussia and Russia, announce the arrival of the Russian General Smolikowski to treat upon the subject. The General has been received by the King and the Minister of Commerce, and has had conferences daily with the director-general of pub lic works. Count Adlerberg, military plenipoten tiary of Russia at Berlin, it is said, has been also concerned in this question. The first line proposed will be a branch of the Prussian Eastern Railway to the St. Petersburg and Warsaw line. During the last few days some very discouraging but entirely unfounded rumours have been circu lated affecting the credit of commercial firms, and otherwise tending to create mistrust. The public, however, should be cautioned to turn a'deaf ear to these absurdities, which, from the apparent since rity with widch they are uttered, combined with the well-known sensitiveness of the money market, are likely to excite attention. Latterly there have been expectations that the tendency in the position of monetary affairs was towards improvement, and because during the last few days no intelligence of an authentic character has transpired alarmists and oth ers h ave w ilf u ll y promulgated their extreme ideas, and have not hesitated to spread pernicious state ments, whi c h, a lth oug h prepos t erous, are, in braes like the present, sure to be made the most of by the speculative community. Yesterday after noon all kinds of rumours were current, but most of them are so extremely absurd that they do not require special comment. One of these canards might have been excessively injurious to commer cial credit, but it met a flat contradiction in all quarters, and is proved to be without the slightest foundation. The Bank directors have been two hours in de liberation, and have just adjourned. No alteration in the discount terms has been resolved upon. Amongst the numerous companies. which have come into existence since the passing of the Limited Liability Act, it is a matter of im portance to the capitalist to invest in those Which have for their purpose the development of British resources in preference to foreign un dertakings, not only as regards the question in a patriotic sense, but as it affords him greater security for his investment, and control over the management of the company. Of these home in vestments, few exhibit a more promising aspect than the National Guaranteed Manure Company, which has for its object the supplying of manures to the agricultural community, composed of organic and inorganic substances, which they shall guarantee to contain a certain percentage of nitro gen, ammonia, and other elements of fertilisation, essential to the growth of crops. At present the richest manures are imported from foreign c ountries at a large cos t, w h en i t is well known that our own country abounds with animal matter of equal richness, and thus the re sources of the country are in this matter neglected. The company declare their intention of remedying this evil, by introducing scientific appliances to refine the crude manures, so as to be come equal to the richest that are im ported. For this purpose the company have already made arrangements with two other manure companies, one in Lond on an d one in the N or th o f England,' to secure their co-opera tion and experience in the matter, by purchasing their interests. A large portion of the shares are already subscribed for, and we can recommend this as an advantageous investment. The capital is 100,000 Lin 50,000 shares of 2/. each. Deposit 10s.. per share. The English Funds yesterday afternoon were depressed, in consequence of unfavourable reports Mind the closing a large Ball account. This morning Were has been more firmness, and a moderate business has been done at about the quotations cur rent at the offieial close yesterday. The account has passed off satisfactorily, and the tone of the market has been firm. Since one o'clock the prices have been affected by the suspense experienced during the sitting of the Bank of England Directors. Consols for money have been 82l and 92,3.. For account, December 4, they have been 93 93i, and 93 to 1. At present they are 92 L and 931 I- re spectively. The New Threes have been 92 to 924, and the Reduced 91 Bank Stock is 214. Exchequer Bills are 2s. discount to 2s. premium. Foreign Stocks are dull and rather flat. Turkish 6 per Cents. have been 90Z ;, and the 4 per Cents. have declined to 1001 Spanish are firmer, the Threes being 42 to 42k, the Deferred 23'1. Sar dinian have been 894 and Mexican 22.

Tile further arguments in this case occupied the Court ,the whole of the morning. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. (Beforo Sir R. T. Kinjer3hy.) THE PRINCE OF WALES ASSURANCE COMPANY Y. TRUE- LOCK. The defendant, it will be recollected, brought actions against the company for the recovery of 11,000/., the value of some policies granted by the company to him on the life of a Mr. Jodderell, decemed. The company defended the actions, as they believed that it ►would be possible for them to show that Truelock had conspired with another party to defraud them by making false reporta , ,ions as to the health and habits of Mr. Jodderell when the application WAS first made to the company to effect the policies. It was re presented that Mr. Jodderell was a man of good health and temperate habits, but the contrary was the fact. Upon the trial of the first action, which was broughtefor the recovery of 7,0001., Mr. Braid, who was the only person whose testimony could prove the fraud, was not forthcoming, and judgment was given against the company. The second action, for the recovery of 4,0091. upon two policies for 2,0001., came on for trial a few days afterwards. Mr. Braid, who, it was alleged, was kept out of the way by Truelock, was again absent, and judgment was given for 'the 4,000/. The company then filed this bill in Chancery for the purpose of restraining execution for the recovery of the amount. The case came on lor hearing previously to the vacation, before his Honour, upon a demurrer, which was allowed on the ground that it was open to the company either to have applied to the court for a postponement of the trial, in conse quence of the absence of Braid, or to have applied for a new trial. The co►npany then appealed against the decision to the Lords Justices who took the same viewof the case ; but one of them (Lord Justice Bruce) thought the com pany should be allowed to amend their bill, if that was possible. The company did so, and since the case was heard upon demurrer they had ascertained that Mr. Truelock had admitted that he was only entitled to half the 11,0001., and was merely a trustee for Mr. Braid with regard to the other half. They also stated that during the interval the 11,0001. had been paid into court by the company, and they prayed that it m:ght be dealt with as justice required. Mr. Bailey and Mr. Simpson appeared for the de murrer, and contended that the company had not shown a case strong enough for the interference of the Court. Mr. Glasse, Mr. Freeman, and Mr. Hastings opposed the demurrer. His Honour allowed the demurrer, as he was of opi• nion that the amendments made in the bill had not strengthened the ground of appeal for relief to a court of equity. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Sittings in Banco, before Lord CAMPBELL, Mr. Justice COLERIDGE, Mr. Justice WRICITILItc, and Mr. Jos tiCe ERLE.) IN RE W. 0. PATCH. Mr. Bullar moved for the issue of a writ of habeas corpus, to the gaoler of the gaol of Jersey, to bring up the body of William 0. Patch, a prisoner, at present con fined in that gaol for debt. It appeared that the de fendant, who is an Englishman, went to Jersey -to reside in 1343. On the 29th October, 1845, he was arrested for a debt of 191. 2s. he had contracted in the Island, and bad remained in custody every since. The case was one of extreme hardship, because the prisoner being blind it caused the imprisonment of his wife to attend on him. The pri soner was seized under two processes, one of which was directed to the-constable is general terms, to arrest the debtors of the creditor, and on information he received he arrested the defendant. It was contended that the defendant was arrested without cause, and illegally, being against the fundammta,l laws of the . island and the const►tutional rights ant privileges of the inhabitants and sojourners in Jersey, being British subjects, which no ordinance, custom, •r usage can abridge or take away. The defendant stated in his affidavits that his and his wife's health had suffered from the confinement. Lord Campbell—ls there no tribunal in Jersey to which application can be made Mr. Bullar—There is the Royal Court. Lord Campbell said that application should have been made to the Supreme Court of Jersey, who would have had authority to adjudicate on the question. Mr. Bullar contended that the warrant being general was against the constitutional law of the country, and, consequently, that the arrest was illegal. Lord Campbell said the Court could not take cogni• sauce of the case except by the laws of Jersey, and the question was whether this proceeding was contrary to that law. The learned counsel had not shown it was contrary to that law, and therefore the application was refused. Rule refused accordingly. No cases of interest bad come before the Court of Common Pleas, or Court of Exchequer, up to the time of our despatch leaving. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) THE ROYAL BRITISH BANK. To-day was appointed for the choice df assignees un der this bankruptcy, and appeared to excite more intense interest than any previous occasion, as it was doubtful whether the choice would take place pending the pro• ceedings before his Honour Vice-Chancellor Kindersley. Messrs. Linklater and Harkwood appeared for the peti- tioning creditor, and Mr. Chidley, Mr. Reed, and other gentleiaea for the creditors. _ The business commenced by taking proofs &lefty on deposit account, admitted without opposition. Mr. Linklater put in proofs Olen out of court of 1,4001., depositors to the amount of about 150,000/. The names of the followipg gentlemen were banded in as proposed assignees—Mr. G. Wylde, Charing-cross, geographer ; Mr. Robert Taylcr i Lambeth terrace ; Ur. lleury Sadler Mitchell, Great Prescott-street, and Mr. J. Trcherne Burke, Gresham-street, and Mr. John Maxwell, Bhll-square, Finsbury. Mr: Linklater said the above gentlemen had been nominated by a committee of depositors, depifted by the body of depositors; and a; he (Mr. Linklater) held the proofs of creditors to the amount of 150,0001,, there would be no contest, and it only remained for his Honour to confirm the choice. He would take that opportunity of correcting a mistake which appeared to have existed in the mind of the public, that the injunction had the effect of restraining the proceedings in this Court. The injure. tion was only granted to the extent of preventing any interference with the interim manager, Mr. Harding. He then explained that the summons against Mr. Hard. ing had not been dismissed, but at the suggestion of the Court had been withdrawn, He also wished to observe that it had been stated erroneously that he had on the 15th sent to Mr. Harding desiring him to attend, for it had been previously arranged between them that the summons should be withdrawn. He merely sent to ask him whether he was desirous of being present. Mr. ILinklater was proceeding to make some remarks, but was interrupted by Mr. Burton, the solicitor. under the winding up—who objected to any statements being made now, and which had better be reserved until the decision had been given. His Honour said it would be desirable not to do so whilst the matter was sub.juridice. Mr. Linklater then stated that between 20 aed 80 actions bad been brought against the official manager, and one bad obtained a judgment for 1,2001. ; in fact, under the proceedings of the Winding -up Act, there was a race between_ the creditors, to their individual benefit, hut at a severe less by costs. He then applied to his Honour to name a day, so that the directors might have notice to attend_ and prepare a balance•sheet. He ap plied for the whole of them to be oiled upon to do ,se, as some bad been directors from the commencement, and it would be necessary to have an account from the beginning of tho trading in order to see the cause of the bankruptcy. Mr. Reed, who represented two of the directors and some of the largest shareholder►, thOught it would not be advisable to call upon them to do so at present. He also regretted that some creditors bad taken proceedings against the official manager, thereby unnecessarily in curring heavy costs. The shareholders he represented were anxious to pay the creditors, and would contribute rateably for that purpose ; he, therefore, hoped no fur• Cher proceedings would be taken. Mr. Linklater said the assig , )ee , ! Were anxivue that the creditors should not take any proceedings againit the official manager, which would only embarrass without benefit, for be (Mr. Linklater) had no doub~ the bank ruptcy would be upheld. _ His Ho*our declined to make any order on the direc tors at present, and said it would be more judicious and respectful to the superior Court to follow its decision. His Honour confirmed the choice of the above-named gentlemen as assignees. Mr. Linklater sail that an application was made yes terday to the Vice-Chancellor to stay the choice this day, but be declined. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.— (This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DISTURBANCE AT HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.—CharIes Mott JVastie, gentleman, 47, Great Marylebone•streei, Portland-place, was brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with creating a disturbance at her Majesty's Theatre, Haymarket. Inspector Searle, of tho A division, slated that last night about 10 o'clock he was on duty at her Majesty's Theatre, being Jullien's opening night, when all at once a great disturbance broke out in the promenade, by several young men hooting and hallooing at the top cf their voices. He went into the midst of the men, and with great difficulty succeeded in quieting them. A second disturbance then broke out in the centre of the promenade, and on making his way to the spot he Amw the defendant, who appeared to be one of the ringleaders, and heard him call out, "A :int o a ring." Defendant then commenced booting and screaming in such a violent manner that the audience were very much alarmed. Witness tried all he could to put au end to the disturbance, when the de fendant called out " Down with him, down with him," which seemed greatly to encourage the mob to com mence again. He then laid hold of the defendant and told him he must consider himself in custody, when he pulled a long and sorrowful face, and said a person had struck him on the back, and that was the reason he called out put him down. He (defendant) wished to put that party down, and not the inspector. Witne•e then called two other constables and conveyed the de fondant to the station. On the way to the latter place a rescue was attempted, but without success. The accused gave a general denial to the charge, and said the inFpector had mistaken him for some other per son. He went to the theatre tl hoar the music, and not to kick up a row. Police-constable, 256 A, said he had been watching the defendant some time before he was taken into cus tody, and saw him with several others very riotous. He also heard him call out " Down with him." Langley, 100 A, corroborAted the evidence of the last- witness. Mr. Bingham said however hurtful it might be to do. fondant's feelings, he had one question to ask, which must be answered one way or the other. Was the defen dant kno;vn to the police as a pickpocket ? A. reply was given in the negative. Defendant protested that he was exceedingly well and respectably connected. He was acquainted with Baron Platt, and Alderman Challis was his great uncle. Mr. Bingham, after reviewing the whole of the evi dance, said there were two classes of persons who went to those places for the purpose of making a disturbance, namely, pickpockets and idle people about town. Pick. pockets made it a matter of business, and the idle young men went on purpose to annoy the respectable portion of the audience. The defendant was one of those idle young men, and he shGuld fine him 40:4., and recommend him to tell all the idle young men of his acquaintance the result of his appearance at this court. SOUTHWARK. ROBBING A SAlLOR. —Charlotte Holland, a young girl about 18 years of age, was brought before Mr. Burcham charged with stealing a 51. Bank of England note and 20x. in silver from the person of Benjamin Procter. The prosecutor, a jolly-looking Jack tar, stated that a short time ago he was paid off at Southampton, and on the previous day he came up to London to see some friends. As soon as he left the railway he strolled into Tooley-street to partake of refreshments, and fell in with some old shipmates. After he had left them he ran foul of the prisoner, whom he accompanied to her lodgings in Tathill-court. He .sent for some gin, and then he had a 5/. note in his match-box and about 20s. in silver. On getting up about 7 o'clock he missed the prisoner from the room, and on examining his clothes he also _ missed the bank note and all his silver money. He immediately went to look after the prisoner, and found her in bed with another female in a room up;Stairs. Witness then called in a constable and gave her into custody, but his money could not be found. Mr. Burnham asked him what state he was in when he met the prisoner ? Prosecutor replied that he was drunk, but at the same time he knew his money was safe when he was in the house with her. • Mr. Burcham asked what sort of a house it was that they went to Police constable 72 Al, who took her into custody, raid it was a brothel of the very worst description, kept by a very bad character named Hill. The prisoner denied all knowledge of the prosecutor. She never saw him until he came up into her bedroom and charged him with robbing her. The prosecutor was recalled, and, in answer to the worthy magistrate, said that he was not so drunk when he fell in with the prisoner as not to know her again. Ile was positivathat she was the female who robbed him, and no one else. Mr. Burcham said that, under all the circumstances, he should remand the prisoner until Saturday next, to enable the police to make further inquiries. Perhaps the house had better be more carefully searched. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(This Day.) LONDON, Nov. 6.—Wind this day at noon, Easterly ; moderate breeze and fine.

THE IRON AND COAL TRADES.—More disactere are dis• turhing the districts of South Staffordshire and Ea3t Wor• cestershire. The partial stoppage of Fox, Henderson, and Co., of the London Works, near Birmingham, and conse• quent upon a foundry near Wordeley, has created consi derab!e anxiety, as no one knows what such suspensions may lead ta. Preliminary meetings of some of the credi tors of the firms alluded to have been held, and the whole of them will be called together in a few days to examine the state of their affairs, and to decide whether or not time shall be given them for payment and also the carrying on of their works. Several ironmaster who can do so have agreed to .blow out some of their furnaces and reduce their make, as they find it impon•- sible to sell pig-iron at present rates to realise anything like a fair margin of profit, and to stock pigs would be unwise at the present high rate of material. We stated some time ago that the tightness of the money market would operate prejudicially upon the trade; this has come to pass, high rates are being exacted for good bill*, and great caution is being exercised by the local banks as to what paper they discount. The iron trade is again undergoing a refining process, and it is hoped that the ordeal through which some will have to pass will be the means of ultimately benefitting the trade rather than other wise,— Woirerh4mpton Chronicle.

This tempting prize slial, refused them that privilege. set all the catchpoles in the country on the alert, -- and Carpeutier's chance of escape grew proportion ably small. There were plenty of aspirants eager for the honour of catching the fugitive and gin ecl.y of the golden reward which was to follow. Late last Thursday 'night Capt. Dowling, of the Sixth Ward police, was awakened by a tall mys teriohs-looking fellow coming into his sleeping apartment and shaking him roughly by the shoul der. Starting up, he saw a man by his bedside, wrapped in a thick cloak, which was so muffled up as to conceal the lower half of his face, while a slouched hat concealed the upper part, leaving only his eyes and the tip of his nose visible. "Who are you?" asked the captain. "An officer. Got a prisoner for you."—" Who is he ?" " Carlson tier, the French railroad robber."—" Show nee your authority for arresting him." He drew out from under his cloak, a warrant issued by Justice Osborne. " Who are you, anyway ? Where do you hail from ? If you are an officer, where do you belong to ?" The stranger coolly replied, " I have brought you a prisoner ; there is my autho rity. By what right do you thus question me ?" bowling, who was now standing in the middle of the room shivering with cold, suddenly fired up at this answer, and told the stranger to clear out and air himself in the entry, for his insolence, and wait until he was ready to attend to him. When he came out the prisoner had been lodged in the cells, and his captor, after duly transferring hiui to the custody of Dowling, left. Next day he did not come back nor send Carpentier any food, and to wards noon Dowling sent out for some at his own expense. He then discovered that the pri soner was handcuffed aul in great pain from the swelling of his wrists, the cuffs having been on ever since his arrest. The captain, after much difficulty, succeeded in getting his wrists free, and then placed him in a warm room and made him comfort able. In the evening Sergeant Brown, of the chief's office, and United States Deputy-Marshal Ryer went to the Sixth Ward stationhouse and.ponveyed the prisoner to the Eldridge-street gaol, where he is now confined on a civil suit. What became of the unknown officer we could net discover, as none cf those 'of whom we inquired could tell any thing about him—who ho is, where lie came from, or whither he has gone. It seems that Carpen tier, on arriving at New York, lodged two days at St. Nicholas's Hotel, and then went to several se condary houses. He had no communication with the two brothers Grelet or Parot, and was not ac companied, as was said, by a female named Geor gette. , It was by the newspapers that he learned the arrival of employiSs of the railway company and of police officers to arrest him ; but he had already taken the precaution of bribing a number of per sons to keep watch for him, and give him warning of the approach of the slightest danger. lie re sided two weeks in a house in the upper part of the city, and there he had a narrow escape. The police learned that beyond all doubt he was in the house, and after having placed a watch on all the issues, they commenced a strict search ; every room, every closet, was examined in vain, and at last they reached a garret in which, on a wretched bed, was lying an old woman, her feet wrapped up in bandages, and apparently suffering great pain. The officers laid their hands on the bed clothes with the intention of looking beneath them, but the woman raised such a piercing cry of agony that they did not venture to disturb her, and they at last wont away. Yet to their vexation they after wards learned that Carpentier was at that very moment secreted between the mattresses ! As it was dangerous for him to remain in the house lie determined on leaving it, but from the manner in which it was watched this was difficult. However, be contrived it in this way : eight of his spies en- t i ered and left the house, as if in great agitation, • and so contrived to fix on them the attention of the police ; ho in the meantime got down from a win- i dow, fiftoen feet high, into the court yard of an adjacent house, and. from it reaclfed the street ; three or foul' other spies were waiting to receive ' him, and they conducted him to another house at a short distance. Tho day after (as was subsequently ascertained) he tool: 0. drive in New York ; the day following, he went to Yorkville ; then to Holsken ; then he took the Erie Ithe,ilway, which goes to Phi ladelphia, but left it at Yewbur g shaved off hi d . He ha previ ously mous • ously cut his hair very stn t ) tachios, and dressed himself ets a labourer. From Newburg he went on foot aeoss the country to Canterbury, and there got employment as a la bourer on a farm belonging to one Ketfield—he consenting to receive for his labour only trifling wages with board and lodging. He there thought himself in perfect security ; but a Gel man of New York, one of his spies, in a moment of eutoxication let fall some words which indicated the direction lie had taken, and two police officers, acooLupanied by an unknown individual (who has since turned out to be a Mr. M'Knight, of Washington), soon cracked him to the farm. On inspectingthe premises they found them guarded by a huge and very savage dog, and they accordingly returned to the town to obtain the means of poisoning him. In the dead of night, having silenced the animal, they effected an entrance into the house and found Car pentier fast asleep in his bed with his clothes on. They awoke him and announced that be was their prisoner, and must accompany them to New Yor k. Ho protested that he was not the man they . sought, but they showed him the minute description of his person, which had been g iven to thew, and produced his photographic portrait, which had been sent from Paris. Finding further deniall useless he gave himself up. He was securely handcuffed, and then assisted into a waggon .0 7.. waiting outside. Two officers from Newbu lif all sifely in Newburgh.

Le Nord of Tuesday contains the following com munication from St. Petersburg, relative to the conce-sion of the now lines of railway in Russia : "In the sitting of the 23d (October) the condi tions of the concession to the . society of the Credit Mobilier were signed. The latter undertakes the construction ci about 3,800 versts of railways, the routes of which are as follow :—The first, and at this moment the chief one, is that from St. Peters burg to Warsaw. The Government having already finished, at its own expense, a portion of the line, about 300 versts, and having prepared works for constructing the whole, the company engages to reimburse the outlay, which amounts to nearly 80,000,000 francs. The second line Is from Mos cow to Theodosia. The distance between these t xo cities by the ordinary road is 1,356 versts, and mtny consiuorable towns are connected by this iine. The surprise is that it should terminate at Theodosia instead of Odessa. I am ignorant of the cause of the exclusion of the richest city in the south of Russia ; I suppose, however, that it will not be long before a branch of the principle line will make it enter the general net-work. The third line is from Moscow to Nijnii-Novgorod (39Et versts). (37he fourth will commence at Ik oursk, the capital of a province, and centre of commercial activity in the interior of Russia, and will termi nate at the port of Libau. This line will cross at Duuaburg the line between St. Petersburg and War gaw. " The company undertakes to finish these lines before the expiration of ten years ; the Warsaw route will naturally be first open for circulation, and that of Nijnii-Novgorod will immediately foil The concession is for 85 years ; the capital of the company is about 270,000,000 silver roubles (or 1,080,000,000 francs)—that is to say, the shares to be issued are not to exceed that amount. A third of the shares are to be allotted iu Russia. The shares will not be quoted on the Bourse. The Government guarantees a minimum of 5 per cent. ARGYLL ROOMS. This agreeable place of amusement has re-opened for the winter season, under improved manage ment. During the recess the magnificent rooms have undergone alterations and re-decoration in a style commensurate with the spirit of the age, and with a view to the increased comfoi t and enjoy ment of the visitors. The quadrille band has been extensively increased, and includes M. Boulcourt, the celebrated cornet-a-piston player, whose per formances have delighted numerous audiences. His reputation is almost as great as the renowned M. Koenig, and he bids fair to successfully rival him and divide public applause. The fame of M. Boulcourt on this difficult instrutnent has already arrested public attention, and large numbers are attracted nightly to hear him. The arrangements for the future good management of this establish ment are such as to inspire confidence and make it a favourite place of amusement where the tedium of a winter's evening might be agreeably dispelled. Perseverance in the course now adopted cannot Tail to be appreciated, and with it enhance the re putation of the establishment, and command a larger share of public patronage than heretofore. CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER. The Court of Assizes of the Var, in its last sitting, tried a young man, named Bonnaud, for manslaughter. He is the son of a retired notary of large fortune of Le Val, and was allowed by his father, with whom be lived, an ample income. Having no occupation be plunged into libertinage, and by means of his wealth seduced several young women in the neighbourhood. One of his mistresses was a young dressmaker, named Romey, and as he not only made her valuable presents, but lent her father money, the latter did not object to his connection with her. In July last the brother of the young woman, a sailor, came home, and he soon heard of her misconduct. He at once went to Bonnaud and per. emptorily ordered him to breakoff all connection with his si-ter under pain of encountering his vengeance. Bonnaud told the young woman's father of the threats of the bro ther, and the father answered, " Don't he afraid of him, he is only a Russian!" meaning thereby that he was more boastful than resolved. Things continued in this state until the 12th August last, when, at about ten o'cicck in the evening, Bonnaud and the young woman met at the village fountain, but whether by appointment "r accident is not known. Whilst they were conversing, young Rooney came up and cried out angrily to Bon• pawl, " I f,rbafie you to speak ,to my sister !" " Yoa do not, I suppose, moan to forbid we coming to the fountain ?" answered Bonnaud. "If you were not such a little fellow," said Romey, who was a tall, powerful man, "1 syould strike you." " Strike !" cried the other, and Rooney without hesitation struck him in the face. On this Bonnaud rushed on him, and a struggle ensued. The two adversaries soon rolled on the ground. Presently, to the surprise of the speetators ? Homey rose and took to flight. Bonnaud had, unperceived to them, drawn forth a large poignard, and bad attempted to stab Romey with it. After going some distance, Romey turned round to face his adver4ary, who was pursuing him, the poignard in his hand. A new struggle took place between them, and Romey received a stab in the breast. Homey a gain took to flight, and Bonnaud, watching him, cried out, " With such a stab as that, I cannot un derstand how he can run !" but, after making rather a large circle, Homey arrived near the fountain and there f e ll. The bystanders hastened to his assistance, but found that he was dead. All these facts were clearly proved by several witnesses, amongst whom was the sister of the victim. After she had given • her evi dence, the president asked her bow it happened that the had permitted herself to be seduced by the prisoner. "He promised me marriage, sir," she replied, " and I believed him." "Is that true?" asked the president of the prisoner. " No," he answered gruffly, " she lies." This reply created a painful itn;•ression in the court. The defence set up for the prisoner was that be had l oud in self-defence ; but the jury declared him guilty, and the Court sentenced him to lye years' hard la hour. IVILBXET NEWS.—(This Day.)
