This was the case for the prosecution. Mr. Justice GASELEE addressing Mr. Clarkson, said he thought the case made against the prisoner was but a slight one. The Jury acquitted the prisoner. There was another indictment against the prisoner, charging her with stealing fourteen yards of calico, the property of the same prosecutrix. Upon this indictment the Jury without the slightest he sitation found the prisoner guilty. Mr. CLARKSON observed that it was proper for him now to state that the prisoner had made a full confession of her guilt. Mr. Justice GASELEE told the prisoner it was one of the worst cases he had ever witnessod, and that she might ex pect to leave the country for as long a period as the law would allow. NEW COURT. Since the Court last sat, the proposed alterations have been carried into effect. The distance between the witness box and the jury-box has been judiciously diminished, and the accommodation for the counsel and solicitors has been enlarged. The press appears to have been completely over looked in the new arrangements, and the reporters were permitted, merely by courtesy, to sit at the table provided for the Bar, until a box shall have been erected. On the whole, the Court is much better lighted and ventilated ; and in this instance the alterations may be fairly termed improvements. The COMMON SERGEANT took his seat at half-past nine. Cornelius Foley, a boy apparently not more than twelve years old, was indicted for stealing a pocket-handkerchief from the person of James Alday.—Guilty. It being the little culprit's first offence, and his father, who stated that he had a large family to provide for, having pledged himself as to his future good conduct, the Learned Sergeant humanely sentenced him to only one day's im prisonment. William Woodward was indicted for stealing a book, value 55., the property of Thomas Pringle.—Guilty. William Howard was indicted for stealing, on the 23d of September, two shirts and other articles, the property of Charles William Marshall. The prisoner was in the employment of the prosecutor, and the pawnbroker, to whom the property was taken to be pledged, (Mr. Aldons, of Berwick-street, Soho,) suspecting that the shirts were improperly obtained, detained them. The identity of the prisoner not having been clearly,proved, the Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. The Learned SERGEANT complimented Mr. Adams upon the propriety of his conduct in detaining the property, and observed that if all the pawnbrokers acted in a similar man ner, petty robberies of this nature would be speedily put an end to. Henry Wilson was indicted for stealing a book, value 95., on the Ist of October, from the shop of George Willis. The case was fully proved. The prisoner put in a written defence, admitting his crime, and pleading poverty.—Guilty. Eliza Jackson was indicted for stealing a 101. bank note from a gentleman in an improper house.—Guilty. John Jones and John Morris, two young lads, were in dicted for stealing a jacket, the property of Laurence Ken nedy.— G uilty. William Clarke was indicted for stealing a bottle-case and two bottles from the shop of James Robinson of Great Queen-street, on the 6th September.—Guilty. Edward Turner was indicted for stealing a bag contain ing 2/. ls. Bd. from the person of William Pepper. It appeared by the evidence that the . son of William Pep per, a very young lad, was passing through Great James'- street, Bedford-row, on the evening of the 6th September, with a bag in his hand, containing silver and half-pence to the amount laid in the indictment. The prisoner came up and snatched the bag from him, and ran off. The prisoner, who appeared to be an intelligent young lad, deposed that he was formerly in the employment of a master builder, and read a letter from him, regretting that he could not attend, and giving him a very excellent character for honesty. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, with a recom mendation to mercy. CLERKENWELL SESSIONS-(THIS DAY). (Before B. ROTCH, Esq. and a Bench of Magistrates.) CASE UNDER THE NEW POOR LAW ACT-MR:ROTCH AND THE PRESS. The case in question came under the provisions of the 69th and 72d clauses of the new Bill, relating to liability and punishment of putative fathers to the Court of Quarter Sessions, which is empowered on application of overseers to make an order on a putative father of a child for its support. Charles Adams, beadle of Hampstead parish, sworn— Served a notice on the defendant, William Sharpe, on the 29th of September. 1834. Defendant admitted before the Magistrates that he was father of the child of Anna Hut chins, born on the 26th of August . 1834. The warrant was allowed to stand over in consequence of Sharpe's pro mise to marry the mother. Anna Hutchins stated that William Sharpe was the father of her child, which was born in Hampstead workhouse in August last. She resided with Mr. Wright, Hampstead, and defendant was employed by him. She frequently im portuned the defendant to have the asking (bans) put in. He said, "Do as you like." He never disowned that he was the father of the child in question. She and her child had been in the workhouse, Hampstead, since the child's birth. Anne Briggs being sworn, deposed, that she was a friend of the girl, Anna Hutchins, who lodged with her. That she threatened to turn the girl out, unless Sharpe would marry her. She went for Sharpe ; brought him to her house. He said he would act agreeably to the girl's wishes. The banns were put in. The prisoner was, of course, expected to meet Anna Hutchins and witness at church. They went, but he was absent. Mr. BODKIN asked Sharpe if he wished to propose any questions to any of the witnesses. He declined, merely ob serving, that he was not the father of Hutchins's child. The Master of the Workhouse, at Hampstead, being sworn, stated, that Anna Hutchins and her child had been in the workhouse, at Hampstead, since the child's birth. On being asked what he thought the expense would be of supporting the child, he said 55., as, in his opinion, the support given to the mother was equi valent to giving it to the child. _ Mr. ROTCH asked witness if he had been in the House of Commons when the Poor Law Bill passed ?—( Laughter.) Witness replied in the negative, but pursued his reasoning to show that the support of the mother should be consi dered the support of the child. Mr. ROTCH thought otherwise ; 2s. 6d. a week was agreed to be a fair charge. - The defendant is to reimburse the parish for the by-gone expenses of supporting the child, and to be further liable to support his own offspring according to the provisions of the New Poor Law Bill. After this case had been disposed of, Mr. ROTCH took occasion to observe that he had been very much misrepresented by the press, not only of London, but also by the provincial papers, which represented him as a decided enemy to the New Poor Law • Bill. The papers were very humourous at his expense, and made him, on a recent occasion, allude to the new bill in connection with a case to which it has no relevancy. He knew that the bill was unpopular with some persons. He himself thought there were some clauses of doubtful excellence, but, as a whole, as a decided improvement on the old system, he was a decided supporter of the New Poor Law Bill. More over, he had the greatest confidence in the judgment of two of the Commissioners, whom he had the pleasure of knowing personally. THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY.)

Yesterday morning an Irishman, named Jas. Co nolly, employed in erecting the new barracks in the Bird-cage walk, at the end of St. James's Park, near the new Palace, while at work on a lofty scaffolding, by some accident fell off, and sustained such severe injuries that he died within a few hours after being conveyed to the Westminster Hospital. On Monday, the 13th inst., Sarah Mahony, a poor woman living in Ewer-street, Gravel-lane, left her own house in perfect health, and in the last month of her pregnancy, to seek her husband at the Hop-pole public-house, in William street, on reaching which she called for some water or beer, when the latter word had scarcely passed her lips ere she fell to the ground and breathed her _last. A medical gentleman was immediately in attendance, who, on seeing that the vital spark had forsaken the unhappy mother, declined to perform the only remedy left to save the life of the child, on which Mr. Brady, surgeon, of Charlotte-street, Blackfriars-road, was called in, who, with the greatest promptitude, performed the rare operation of the Caesarean section, with the benevolent view of saving the life of the child. THE SUN, LONDON, TH BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) MRS. GREEN V. MRS. IVESON. The defendant appeared upon an assault -warrant, which charged her with violently assaulting Mrs. Green without cause or provocation. She pleaded not guilty. The complainant deposed that on Monday last, while she was stooping down on her knees, the defendant came up to her and knocked her down. On attempting to get up again, the dos© was repeated. She had given no cause for it to the defendant, who lived in the same house. The defendant, in answer, said that she was the assaulted. On the day in question she was attacked by the complainant, merely because she had caught her in a very equivocal si tuation with her (defendant's) husband. She caught him by the collar and took him away ; and then Mrs. Green promised to be even with her, which she was on the day named. _ _ A great deal of laughable recrimination took place be tween the parties ; but Mr. MiNsHuLL declared he could not decide between them, and let the warrant stand over. The defendant was off like a shot, and in a minute after was not to be found, when another woman applied for (and obtained) another warrant against her. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.--(THIS DAY.)

Among the guests were Sir Dorset Fellowes, General Davy (of Tracey Park), the Mayor of Bristol, J. E. Baillie, Esq., M.P., Mr. Ser geant Ludlow, Mr. Dickenson, Major Joliffe, &c. DOVER, OCT. 13.—His Grace the Duke of Wel lington arrived here to-day from Walmer Castle, and, after viewing the works in progress at the harbour, returned to the Castle. The dinner to his Grace by the residents of Rams gate is announced to take place on Tuesday next, the 21st inst. Sir William Curtis will preside. There is every pro bability of a numerous company. BURY ST. EDMUNDS, OCT. 14—Our little town has been quite turned topsy-turvy during the fair, balls, pro menades, &c., of the past week, and we have had to boast of many of the nobility, amongst others—the Duke of Norfolk, Earl and Countess of Surrey, Marquis and Marchioness of Bristol, Earl and Lady Katherine Jermyn, Lady Georgian' Hervey, Hon. F. and Lady A. Seymour, Lord John Fitzroy, Earl of Sandwich, Lady Rendlesham, Sir William and Lady Middleton, Sir William Eustace, Sir Hyde Parker, Lady Pocklington, Sir Henry and Lady Blake, &c. The ball on Friday was attended by 332 ladies and gentlemen, that on Monday less numerously. WORTHING, OCT. 14.—Among the fashionables still sojourning at Worthing are—Lady Elizabeth and Miss Macgregor Murray, Lady E. Smyth and family, the Hon. Miss Craven, the Earl and Countess of Beauchamp, the Hon. Captain and Mrs. Darner, Viscount Molesworth, Sir Richard and Lady Borough, Mr. and Lady Elizabeth Borough, Lord George Quin and family ; the Rev. Mr. Vernon, Miss Ver non, and Captain Vernon.; Lady Langham, &c. Several vocal and instrumental performers enliven the libraries in the evening, and many are induced to visit them after a moonlight ramble on the beach. LONGFORD CASTLE.—The party here has Just broken up, and the Earl and Countess of Radnor left for Lon don. The Earl presided in the Council-house, in Salisbury, on Monday, as Recorder of the city, attended by the Corpo ration. The Lord Chancellor, ' accompanied by Miss Spald ing and Miss Brougham, and Mr. Edmunds, arrived at the Castle last week. Lord and Lady Stuart de Rothsay, Lady Cadogan and daughters, Hon. Mrs. Morier, Lady Mildmay, Lord Craven, Mr. Marsh, Mr. Bulkley and Mrs. L. Fox, Colonel and Lady Catherine Bulkley, his Lordship's daughter (by Lady C. Pelham), Sir F. Bathurst, &c., were inmates of the Castle. Mr. Brodie, M. P., Captain Duncombe Bouverie, M. P., and the Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Canon Bouverie, and seve ral others dined on Saturday. The party came on Thursday to Salisbury, and ate luncheon at the Deanery, and viewed the Cathedral. The Lord Chancellor expressed himself much pleased with this magnificent building, and made several re marks relative to York Minster to Mrs. L. Fox as the party walked round. A WATER DRINKER.—Died at Foulbourn, Cam bridgeshire, on Friday, aged 44, Eyekill Law, who had been in the habit, during the last five or six years, of drinking 14 quarts of cold water every 24 hours. . _ The celebrated poet, Cornelius Loots, Knight of the Order of the Dutch Lion, member of the Second Class of the Royal Institute of the Netherlands, died at Amsterdam on the morning of the 10th instant, at two o'clock, at the age of nearly seventy.—Dutch Paper. CIDER MAKING.—So fine and luxuriant a crop of apples never has been remembered as that which the pre sent Autumn has produced. In Worcestershire, we are told, the farmers are so satisfied with the quantity of cider they have already made, that they will scarcely take the trouble of housing the apples that have not yet been gathered in.—Chel tenham Journal. SHEFFIELD AND ROTHERHAM RAILWAY.--We understand the lists of subscribers to this undertaking are fill ing rapidly, and that the proportion of capital necessary for making application to Parliament is likely to be subscribed in the course of a few days. The advantages of railway commu nications are so obvious, that in a very short time, it is certain there will be no considerable town in the kingdom without its benefits ; and we do not see any reason why a large, populous, and wealthy town like Sheffield should be backward to share in the general improvement.—Sheffield Independent. A barbarous and savage murder has been committed at Ballinahown, five miles from Athlone. The victim, a man named Dunn, was placed as a keeper on hay, &c., distrained for rent, and on his return from the auction was waylaid and shot ; his eyes were torn from their sockets, his tongue cut out, and his body mutilated and disfigured in such a manner that it was scarcely possible to identify it.—lrish Paper. LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, OCT. 14.—The cotton-market was more than usually brisk. On Monday the sales were very large, and the prices advancing. The de struction of cotton by the fire on Friday evening last has had a slight effect, but the flourishing state of the trade in the north of England is, no doubt, the principal cause. The very good demand for cotton we noticed yesterday has continued throughout this day, and prices may be quoted fully at id. to per lb. higher. The transactions are estimated at 4,000 bags, chiefly of American descriptions, with about 900 bags Surat on speculation. Of all the innumerable remedies for defective sight, and more especially for nervous head-ache, we know of none better than Grimstone's eye-snuff. We have heard of many instances in which the use of it has been attended with the greatest success. RSDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1834, COURT CIRCULAR. The King,' attended by Sir Herbert Taylor, arrived in town at half-past one o'clock yesterday afternoon from the Palace at Windsor. His Majesty held a Privy Council, which was attended by the First Lord of the Treasury, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the First Lord of the Admiralty, the Master of the Mint, the Chief Commissioner of the Woods and Forests, the Lord Steward, the Master of the Horse, and Lord Hill Gold Stick in Waiting). At the Council Parliament was ordered to be further pro rogued from the 23d inst. to Tuesday, the 25th of November. Several matters were referred to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. The Hon. William Bathurst was the Clerk of the Council in Waiting. His Majesty gave audiences to Viscount Melbourne, Vis count Palmerston, the Earl of Albemarle, Mr. Secretary Rice, Lord Auckland, the Duke of Argyle, Lord Hill, and Sir John Hobhouse. Viscount Falkland and Sir Wathen W a ll er were t h e Lord and Groom in Waiting. His Majesty gave audiences in the course of the afternoon to Baron d'Ompteda, the Hanoverian Minister, Sir John Mac donald, and Sir James Cockburn. The King left St. James's Palace, soon after seven o'clock last evening, in a carriage and four, escorted by a party of Light Dragoons, for Windsor Castle. The French Charge d'Affaires visited Viscount Palmerston yesterday at the Foreign-office. Viscount Althorp inspected the new Palace in St. James's Park yesterday. Viscount Melbourne has arrived in town from Panshanger, Herts. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. ARRIVALS.

THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON AND THE BELGIAN FORTRESSES. On this subject the Duke of Wellington has addressed the following letter to the Editor of the Kentish Gazette. " Weimer Castle, Oct. 11, 1834. " Sir,—My attention has been drawn to a statement in the Kentish Gazette, that a demand of mine upon the Minister of War (at Brussels I conclude) for 20,0001., as arrears of pay as Inspector General of the Belgian fortresses, had been re ceived by that officer. " I had seen a similar statement in other newspapers, with different details, and stating that the demand was for 28,000/. " I do not in general pay much attention to such statements in newspapers ; but several friends having written to me upon the subject of this report, it appears that the shortest mode of giving an answer is to inform you that there is no foundation whatever for such a report. " I have made no application to the Minister of War at Brussels for 20,0001., or 28,0001., or any other sum, on any account whatever. I have no claim upon that officer for any sum whatever, or upon an y o th er o ffi cer or G overnmen t, f or superintending the construction of the fortresses in the Nether lands. " I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient humble servant, " WELLINGTON." THE ARMY. GENERAL ORDER. Horse Guards, Sept. 23, 1834. The General Commanding-in-Chief is pleased to approve of General Officers commanding Districts in Great Britain granting Leave of Absence to Officers, and Furloughs to Non-commissioned Officers and Soldiers, under the following limitations and restrictions, viz. : " 1. The Leaves of Absence, granted under this Order to Officers, may commence as soon as the Half-yearly Inspections shall have been made : the Furloughs granted to Non-com missioned Officers and Soldiers may commence from the Ist of the next month. "2. These indulgences are to terminate on the 10th of March next, when, in conformity to his Majesty's regulations, all Officers and Men are to be present with their respective Regiments. 3. One Field-Officer, one half of the Captains, and one half of the Subaltern Officers, are always to be present with their regiments. " 4. No Officer (except in the performance of duty, or for the purpose of joining his regiment) is to quit the United Kingdom, without having first received his Majesty's special permission. _ _ _ " 5. The Officers employed on the Recruiting Service, or upon the Staff of the Army, are not to be included in the num ber hereby fixed for the constant duty of the regiment. " 6. The applications for leave for Regimental Paymasters, and Medical Officers, are to continue to be made in the mode prescribed in pages 72 and 73 of the General Regulations of the Army. " 7. In cases of short leaves of absence being requested by Adjutants, Riding-masters, Quartermasters, or Veterinary surgeons of regiments, it will be necessary that a special report should be made, as to the mode in which their duties are to be performed during their absence. " 8. The proportion of Non-commissioned Officers, trum peters, drummers, and private men, to whom furloughs may be granted, is not to exceed ten per troop or company. " When regiments are not stationed in garrisons, or military districts, the Officers commanding are at liberty to use their discretion in granting the indulgence of leave of absence, under the foregoing restrictions, to the Officers and men under their command. " This order does not apply to officers and men doing duty with the depot companies of regiments on foreign service. " His Lordship expects that the General and other Officers, who are empowered to grant leave of absence under the pro visions of this order, will strictly confine that grant to the proportion of Officers herein specified. t‘ By the Command of the Right Honourable the General Comstanding-in- Chief, ,g JOHN MACDONALD, Adjutant-General." THE THEATRES. COVENT-GARDEN. Last night in the play of Henry VIII., Mr. Vandenhoff played Cardinal Tirobey, and Mrs. Sloman sustained the character of Queen Katharine. Mr. Vandenhoff well sus tained the reputation he has achieved for precise and elaborate attention to his author. The early scenes, including that of the trial of Queen Katharine, did not call forth any remarkable exertion ; but the third act was one of masterly excellence. The effect of the mysterious upbraidings of the king was also admirably depicted ; but the proud Cardinal lost none of his high bearing when flouted by the obtrusive peers who had taken the monarch's frown for the signal of assault on him to whom " forty hours before" they would have bowed the knee. His scorn of them was of the most withering and subduing force. But the greatest, perhaps the concentrated merit of the performer was his interview with, and his advice to, Cromwell—where there are language and sentiments of the sublimest character. Mrs. Sloman's Queen Katharine was a very sensible performance. The celebrated trial scene, which Mrs. Siddons made so much her own as almost to terrify any successor from very confidently attempting the character, was a dignified and energetic effort. The house was well attended, v t h e o r y u g likely k n e l o y t t s o o d r c o v e w d o e p d e r a a santod givespspectacle ct signs &te f t r h o a m t t S h h e a k s ta s p g e e a , r e or wa to s occasional representations. VICTORIA THEATRE. The performances at this house last night were the Rent Day, The Irish Gentleman, and the three last acts of Virgi nius. The Relit Day is front the pen of Mr. Jerrold, and is altogether a most affecting picture of rural distress. Mr. Elton supported the character of Martin Heywood, the dis tressed farmer, w ith great truth; while Mrs. Selby, as Rachel, his wife, drew tears from eyes which, judging from external appearances, were seldom visited by these refreshing showers of the heart. Old Crumbs was well represented by Mr. W. Keene, who certainly evinced a striking example of the complicated influence of avarice, fear, and revenge all at work in the same seared and guilty bosom. Mr. Mitchell, as Bullfrog, the appraiser and auctioneer, was very amusing, and went through his part ad m i ra bly. M r . W a ll ac k an d M r . Rens ford, as Silver J ac k an d H yssop, f ormed a striking contrast to each other, and more than convinced us that there are as many degrees in ruffianism as there are graduations in arriving at a fellowship at one of our U n i vers iti es . Th e act i ng o f both in the drun en scene was capital ; as was Wallack's representa tion of Silver Jack in the cottage, attempting to seduce Hey wood's (Elton) wife with the sight of the purse of money. Mr. Forrester played Toby Heywood in such a manner as to call forth the frequent applause of the audience. By the way, Forrester appears to be a favourite at this house, and we think not unworthily. Mr. Selby wanted earnestness, and was b . y no means equal t o hi mse lf. Hi s A pp i us Cl au di us in I:ir ginius, is excellent ; but his Grantley, in the Rent Day, is a meagre performance. He ought to study the character more, and throw into it some of the nobler feelings of an English gentleman. Altogether the performances went off well, and the house was crowded from floor to ceiling. The Festival of the inhabitants of Ramsgate to his Grace the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports is fixed for Tuesday next, Sir William Curtis, Bart., in the Chair. The tickets are selling very rapidly, and it is expected that there will be a very large number assembled to meet his Grace. Lieutenant-General Sir William Inglis and Major-General Dever are among the Stewards. PLACES OF WORSHIP IN ENGLAND AND WALES.

The following race was run after our express left the ground : Sweepstakes of 100 toys. each, h. ft. ; colts, Bst. 51b. ; fillies, Bst, 31b. From the Turn of the Lands in. Lord Tavistock's f. by Royal Oak—Mona Wright 1 Gen. Grosvenor's Nautilus, by Skiff—lcaria 2 Lord Southampton's f. by Pizarro---Young Barrosa 3 Even on Nautilus. Mona made all the running and won by two lengths. The two T. Y. C. races call for a few particulars in addition to those already given :-501. Plate—Three or four false starts occurred before the horses got off; in the successful one Florin took the lead, having Castaway in company, the others lying up ; at the new ground Florin declined, and Ethilda took the second place ; the remainder of the running was made by Cast away, who won very easy by a length. Directly after it was over, a heavy storm came on, and the spectators, who, seduced by the beauty of the morning, were, in most instances, unprovided with cloaks, &c., were driven helter-skelter from the Course, so that very few saw the match. A little before three o'clock it cleared up, and the horses went to the post for the Clearwell Stakes, and there was reasonable ground for expecting that it would be decided before the second heat of the storm. In this, however, we were disappointed. There was no getting them off at any price. Attempt after attempt was made, till, after a good hour had been lost, one of the most tremendous storms of thunder, lightning, and rain, that we have seen for many months, came on, adding to the restiveness of the horses, and fairly deluging all who were not comfortably ensconsed in their carriages. The rain certainly was wanted, a vast deal of inconvenience having been felt of late from the great scarcity of water ; but it was most inop portune and unexpected. About four o'clock the last of some twenty or thirty attempts took place, and they were seen ad vancing all of a colour and " all of a heap." Emu made first running, with Preserve, Hester, Ally, and Martha next him, and the others well laid up ; there was no material change of position till they reached the new ground, where Emu gave way ; Hester, Preserve, and Martha then singled themselves out from the crowd, Preserve pulling hard and Hester looking amazingly well ; at the ropes Preserve shot a-head of Hester, and won very cleverly by a length. Martha was placed third, and Free Will (not placed) fourth ; the pace was severe. The average betting against the two favourites till just before the false starts commenced was 6 to 4 agst Preserve, and 13 to 8 agst Hester ; but at that time a gentleman connected with the Hester party came from the starting post, took 5 to 4 about her, and made her first favourite. Mr. Greville and his friends won a good stake on the race. The stakes were worth 7601. In consequence of' the rain there was no ring formed at the rooms after the races ; the highest offer agst Preserve for the Oaks was 5 to 1. WEDNESDAY.

CRICKETTING. The return match between Brighton and Duncton was played in Sir John Byng's Park, near Petworth, on Monday and Tuesday, in the presence of a large concourse of specta tors, and terminated in favour of Duncton by five wickets. The batting of Box, the Brighton wicket-keeper, and Mr. Broadbridge, one of the crack players of Duncton, was a fine display of cricketting ability, and excited great admiration. The Duncton rustics proved their superiority as bowlers— hence the success which attended their exertions; but in point of batsmen, Brighton has the superiority. The famous bowler Lillywhite, who is considered a Brighton player, was excluded, or the game would, we opine, have taken a vary different turn. Sir John Byng, the patron of the Duncton eleven, was exceed ingly gratified with the success of his party. The game IA as as follows :—Duncton, first innings, 73 ; second ditto, 25 ; total, 98 : Brighton, first innings, 49 ; second ditto, 48 ; total, 97. ASSIZES OF THE LOWER LOIRE, OCT.i. (Under the Presidency of M. PAULIZAC.) JEALOUSY AND MURDER. As soon as the doors were opened the court was filled almost exclusively with females, whose curiosity had been excited by the circumstances of this case, there being scarcely a male visage to be seen. Jullen Tatard, aged 44, a shoemaker, was accused of the murder of Auguste Bracquemard. The prisoner was rather a good-looking man, very stout, and having the ap pearance of great strength. He appeared in the uniform of the National Guard, and was decorated with the cross of July. He seemed to labour under great emotion ; he concealed his face in his hands, and continued to shed tears during the greater part of the trial. It appeared that on Sunday evening, the 31st of August last, as the prisoner and deceased were returning home, after having supped together with some friends at a small public-house not far from their residences, prisoner and de ceased quarrelled, and subsequently fought, in the Chemin de Misericorde ; in the contest Tatard received a wound in the arm, though not of a serious nature, but Bracquemard received two stabs in the breast, of which he died during the next day. It was rather remarkable, that out of 12 witnesses who gave evidence on this trial, the depositions of 11 were iu favour of the prisoner, and strictly corresponded with each other in the main facts of the case. The one that differed from the rest was the brother of the deceased. The substance of the evidence was as follows : Bracquemard, who passed in his own neighbourhood for a man of violent passions, and was very prompt in making use of his knife when he quarrelled with any one, had se veral times left his wife and travelled about the country, leaving her to pay the house rent and provide for her chil dren as well as she could, without troubling himself at all as to the means she used. She was consequently obliged to sell her furniture to provide herself and family with sus tentation. The absence of Bracquemard continued many months together. On one occasion he stayed at Paimbceuf six months, and on another eight at Tours. During his last absence she was put to great straits, and undertook to wash and act as housekeeper for Tatard, who is a widower. Julie Dilet, the wife of deceased, is 34 years of age, ten years younger than the prisoner, and a report got bruited about that an illicit commerce existed between them, which inspired Bracquemard with strong feelings of jealousy. On his return to Nantes he made his mother take back the linen to Tatard which his wife had then to wash, and de sired her to tell him to abstain from any further intercourse either with himself or his wife. The mother of Bracque mard delivered the message she was intrusted with, and, according to her own statement, was not very well received. She added, that he said " This fellow shall not prevent me speaking to him in the streets ; nor shall he give me the credit of disturbing his peace for nothing. I'll make him pay for it, if I lose my decoration of July, or even my life by it. When he thinks me his best friend, I will take ad vantage of my situation, and if I fire a pistol at him I'll warrant he shan't escape." This statement was denied by another witness, who de posed that on the 15th or 17th of August, Tatard having yielded to the repeated invitations of Bracquemard to go and sup with him at the cabaret, he saw the latter throw his wine under the table to keep himself sobs r,while he continued to fill Tatard's glass and persuaded him to drink, When they left the house Bracquemard took hold of Ta tard's arm, and said to him, " I know that you think me guilty of the death of your brother" (it was said that the brother of Tatard had died from injuries once received in a quarrel with Bracquemard), and pointing toward the Chemin de Misericorde, said " There is the place !". Why, I certainly always thought so," replied Tatard. " Very well, then," said Bracquemard, throwing off his coat and waistcoat, "let's have it out." A fight then took place, and their friends had much difficulty in separating them. Bracquemard then snatched up his waistcoat, took his knife from his pocket, and just as he was opening it some one cried out, " What are you going to do, you scoundrel ?" and seizing the knife, shut it and gave it to his wife. This encounter took place about a fortnight before the occasion on which Bracquemard lost his life. On the evening of this tragical occurrence, when the party had been supping together at the house before alluded to, the wife of the deceased was going to take his arm, but he would not let her, and kept behind with Tatard ; all the others of the party were walking about two hundred yards before, singing as they went, when suddenly cries for help were heard, and [Met, the brother-in-law of deceased, ran back and separated the two combatants. He pulled de ceased away, and as he was doing so, he struck a blow at him with his knife. Some of them called out " Dilet is wounded !" upon which his wife fainted away, and while the attention of the others was drawn towards her, Bracque mard rejoined Tatard, and in his turn finding himself wounded, called out, " You have used your knife." This exclamation was followed by cries for wisistance, and when one of the party ran up he found deceased seated on the bank at the road side, with his legs in the ditch. Dilet took him up on his shoulder and carried him off; as he passed under a lamp he perceived that he (deceased) was losing blood very fast. A medical man was sent for, who did not think the wound dangerous ; he came to see him the next morning, and went away without saying any. thing. A few minutes after deceased expired. Tatard (the prisoner) after the fray was over, said to several of his companions, as well as to the surgeon who bound up his arm, " If Bracquemard has not killed me, it was not for want of trying." The knife of deceased was produced ; it was stained with blood, and the prisoner and a witness recognized it as his (deceased's). Julie Bracquemard, widow of the deceased, stated that when angry her husband was in the habit of using his knife, and showed several scars of wounds she had received at his hands in proof of her statement. Bracquemard, the mother of deceased, said that the pri soner was the cause of the quarrels which took place be tween her son and his wife ; she entreated her daughter-in law to break off the connexion with him, but her advico was disregarded. She believed that prisoner and her daughter-in-law had premeditated the death of her son. Jean Minguet deposed that he heard Tatard say one day, when he was hammering the sole of a shoe on his lapstone, that he should like to strike as hard upon the head of Bracquemard. Counsel having been heard on both sides, the jury, after a short deliberation, Acquitted the prisoner. As soon as the result of the trial was known, crowds of females assembled round the gates of the Palais de Justice, waitinc , for the widow of the d ecease d, i n or d er to i n fli ct punishment' on her. She was consequently obliged to wait at the lodge until an• opportunity should present itself for her to escape without molestation. THE POET.—If nature bath been more lavish of her bounties to one being than to another, it is surely to the poet. 'What is there within the realms of thought, or the reach of imagination, and he calls it not his own ? Sun, moon, and stars, form a portion of his acknowledged heritage : the beasts of the forest are his, and the sheep and cattle upon a thousand hills ; and yet, amid all this abundance, he sitteth down to a table that would shame the vegetable meals of Franklin. The Revue Encyclopedique gives some very inte resting information relative to the children who are abandoned by their parents throughout France, and who are supported in the hospitals and other institutions of the country. The Revue states, that according to official accounts that have been made, since the year 1819, the number of foundlings had in creased from 99,346 to 122,981. The last number was during the year 1831, since which period no accounts have been made up. According to the law, the male children should be placed on board the vessels of the Royal Navy, but the captains are so averse to take them, on account of their birth, that but very few are employed in this manner. They are under the care of the nurses until they arrive at the age of 12 years, from which time, until they arrive at the age of majority, they are employed in the fields and in various ways, but do not receive any salary for their labour. After the age of 21, they are turned into the world to seek their own subsistence. Accord ing to the statistics of the mortality among these children, it appears that formerly nine died out of every ten before at tuning the age of 12 years. At the present time the average is about one in three. In 1830, 198 died out of 593 who were admitted into the hospital of Montpellier. This amelio ration is accounted for by the increased sum which has been allowed for the children's support, and likewise to the visits of the medical gentlemen, who have by a recent regulation bee appointed to that service. THE LATE INGENIOUS ROBBERY AT THE CASTLE AND FALCON INN, ALDERSOATE-STREET.—It ap pears that the fellow who committed the ingenious and expert robbery at the Castle and Falcon Inn on Sunday last, had a short time since succeeded in a similar one at the George and Vulture Tavern, in George-yard, Lombard-street, and carried away a large sum in sovereigns, which were deposited in a portmanteau belonging to a gentleman who stopped there, and which was deposited in his room. Lea, the Lambeth-street officer, who has taken much pains to discover the offender, suc ceeded in ascertaining the number of the cab which conveyed him from Aldersgate-street, and from the driver he learned that he drove him to the Bull and Mouth booking-office in Regent-circus, where he got out, took in his luggage, a port manteau and a carpet-bag, and inquired at what hour the first Dover coach would start, and being told at seven o'clock in the evening, he discharged the cabman, who he had paid Is. 6d. more than his legal fare, in consideration of his going out of the usual route there, and driving very fast. Lea had further ascertained that he had taken another cab there, and. drove about to different places ; and after the most minute in quiry he found that a person answering the description of the offender had taken his place on one of the Dover coaches at the Foreign Coach-office in the Regent's-circus, and set out e vie assumed by it at eight o'clock on Sunday evening. The cabman w h o. had driven the fellow from Aldersgate-street to Pi cca dill y, confirms Lea in his opinion that ha was not a Frenchm an, b ut. one of the swell mob; fo db r o , u t endeavours thoughwhatever to ape e the that Frenchmanhe was a an a t h e v et r ried l to French, Eng lishman, speak he sometimes, thoug htlessl y , no doubt, spoke pl a i n E ng li sh; and that his ad no the cabm an t caanbd
