WILFUL MURDER.— William Rose, aged 71, a gipsey teas put to the bar on a charge of hiving murdered his wife on the lst of November last. Henry Frederick North was passing about six o'clock near Luxdrove-lane. Heard a mut saying, "Are you coming?" A woman, in a strong tone, replied, " I can not." When I went further I saw the woman lying on the ground, and the prisoner strike her three violent blows with a stick.

The - ANNIVERSARY DINNER of this Institution will be held at the City of London Tavern on Wednesday, the 12th of March ; By the Cower—l did not interfere, because that lane is very much frequented by gipseys and trampers, who are always quarrelling. I returned that way in half an hour, and saw the woman lying on the ground, and the man standing near the bank. He spoke to us, then passed into the grove again, and gave the woman two or three blows. The woman exclaimed, " The Lord have mercy on me." It was then getting dusk, but I noticed the man, as it was moonlight. Mary Waldrove passed by Luxdrove-lane about seven o'clock. Heard cries of murder. Shortly after she saw the prisoner knock a woman down, and heard him say to her, " Will you come on ?" The woman exclaimed, " 0 Lord J.tsus ! 0 Lord !" He then dragged her about two strides, and knocked her down again, and knelt on her chest, and said, your eyes, if there is a knife or a razor in my pack I'll kill you before ten o'clock." lie then searched his pack. I went on and returned that way about nine o'clock, when I saw the prisoner leaning over the gate which led into the high road. He wished me a good night. I saw the woman lyin g still on her back on the ground a few yards from him. I mentioned it to some of the neighbours. The Right Hon.

I went and called the carter, and we went where the woman was, and found her quite dead and cold. The prisoner said that she was the mother of eleven children. The prisoner took boll of her hand and said," Poor thing, she is gone—she is no more." We sent for some of the neigh bours. The prisoner asked for some straw to lie by the side of the woman, and one of the ❑eighbours gave him some.—Verdict, Guilty. Mr. Baron WILLIAMS then sentenced him to be banged on Monday next, and that his body should be buried with in the precincts of tie prison. "I must die at any rate," said the prisoner, who did not appear in the least affected by the sentence.

March 3, 1834. JOHN LUCKOMBE, Sec. William Rixon was put to the bar on an indictment charging him with a capital assault upon Maria Steptoe. The prosecutrix, a young woman of 18, on the 23d of list September, was sent by her father from the village of Radnage, where she resided, to a place about a mile and a half distant, to fetch a bottle of beer. On her way home in the evening, over Radnage Common, the prisoner ac costed her, and walked a little way with her, she having known something of him as living in the same town in which her parents lived. He attempted to act impro perly, but she repulsed him, and went on. He stopped behind, but afterwards followed and overtook her near a gate leading into a field. There he renewed his importu nities, but the place being lonely, the dusk coming on, and no person near, he laid hold of her, opened the gate, and forced her into the field. (The witness then gave evidence descriptive of the perpetration of the capital of fence.) He afterwards offered her fourpence, which she refused. Ile then offered her a shilling not to tell. She cu•sed the shilling, but, when parting from her at a place called llarnedge-stile, lie threw it on the ground towards her, and she picked it up, and kept it. The day this hap pened was a Saturday. On the Wednesday following she told her mother, and the prisoner was taken into custody on the Thursday. She told a girl named Mary Aveny, on the evening in question, that the prisoner had " inter rupted" her on the common, but did not explain anything further. Mr. SIDNEY TAYLOR called for the defence a man who met the proseeutrix and the prisoner on the evening in question, near Hirnedge-stile. He heard them speaking on the other side of the stile before he B.IW thew, and stood still awhile under the hedge, when he heard the prisoner say, " I will give you a shilling not to tell." Just then they carne near where he was, and he saw the prisoner put something into her hand like money,and they parted. She did not seem at all discomposed or flurried as she passed him. lie bid her "good night," and she re turned the salutation. BEDDING, and COMPLETE FUR NISEIING MANUFACTORIES.—The largest, most varied, and cheapest STOCK in the Metropolis is (the Proprietors lelieve without any exception) at late KENT and LUCK'S old established and extensive Manu factories and Warehouses, Carpenter's Hall, Nos. 66 and 67, LONDON WALL, near Finsbury Circus. From those Manufactories the Public are supplied, first hind, from a Stock of at least two hundred Bedsteads, with ap propriate Bedding, and an EQUALLY EXTENSIVE STOCK of GENERAL FURNITURE. The whole con ducted upon the same principles that have governed these Establishments far the last century, at positively wholesale prices. The Trade and Country Dealers are reminded that a considerable reduction took place to them on the 26th of March last, at late Kent and Luck's, Carpenter's Hall, No. 66 and 67, London Wall, near Finsbury Circus. Thos. Bennell, a respectable•looking farmer, stated that the prisoner had worked with him for three or four years, and gave him an excellent character for steadiness and good conduct. The jury consulted together a few minutes, when the foreman said, in an emphatic manner, " We are perfectly satisfied, the prisoner is Not Guilty." OXFORD CIRCUIT.— WORCESTER. (Before Mr. Justice PARK.) Edmund Campbell Brewer, a young man of most re spectable appearance, and who bad held a confidential 13- tuation under the Stout bridge Canal Company, was charged with forging a bill of exchange. It appeared that the prisoner had paid away the forged bill to Mr. Parry, of Stourbridge, to whom the Canal Company owed money, the bill being in the following form : On the 18th inst., in a neat pocket volume, Printed uniformly with " The Book of the Seasons," THE SEVEN TEMPTATIONS.

I . was further proved that Mr. Eberhardt, a clerk of Messrs. 11 sirens of S!our bridge, pursued the prisoner to Utica, in A,ne►ica, three hundred miles up the country, where the prisoner sur rendered himself, and he having taken the prisoner before Mr. ex•sheriff Parkins, at Utica, brought him back to this country, and on their return the prisoner stated both to Mr. Eberhardt, and to a police officer named Craig, that he (the prisoner) had written the whole bill himself, although he had been toll by Mr. Eberhardt, while on board the ship, that if he made any statement it must he communicated to the Company.

Richard Bentley, 8, New Burlington-street. (Successor to Henry Colburn. ) At the conclusion of the summing up of the Learned Judge, a most distressing scene occurred. The prisoner, who had been a good deal agitated during the trial became extremely ill, and groaned most dreadfully. Mr. Justice PARK passed sentence of transportation for life upon the prisoner, observing that the law gave him no discretion as to the extent of the punishment in cases of this kind, or he should probab'y have been disposed to have taken into consideration the high char Acttr the pri soner had received, and the fact of his surrendering him self in America. On hearing the sentence the prisoner clasped his hands together in great agony, and was taken from the bar ex claiming, "O: my wife—oh my children !" We un.!erstand that the prisoner ho a wife and four young children. We noticed on Friday evening a brilliant display of that beautiful phenomenon the aurora borealis : very lengthened streams of silvery coruscations were playing, as it were, over a considerable expan se o f t h e northern hemisphere, and exhibited the most interesting appearance for about on:, hour, between six and eight o'clock. riltar. .:„....,, 71 \ 00 , 1 1 , ^E B in_!

(From the Hampshire Telegraph.) the longest. :here was a feeling some days ago that a re-action must take place' in the wool-market, and that prices must come down ; but nothing has occurred to realize this expectation ; the dealers do not offer at load r price-, txcept in mere imlatad lnstnces; and the prices obtained at the great annual wool fair at Bristol, as well as in Sussex, in both which places wool is actually higher than in Yorkshire, seem to show that prices litre cannot materially recede. Of course, yery little business is doing either in the worsted stuff trade at Bradford or the blanket trade at Heckmondwike. The latter is ,also peculiarly affected by the deranged condition of the monetary con cerns of the United States, which has seriously embar rwsed the trade with this country. It is, haawfver, hoped that this derangement, occasioned by the contraction of the issues and accommodation of the United States Bank, will soon be over, so as to allow of a revival of trade in the spring. The French Government having recently lowered the duty on the importation of English wool front 20 per cent. to 10 per cent., considerable purcha'es have been made on French account in Sam-x, at prices above what the Yorkshire dealer could 'affird. The home and foreign demand for wool is such as greatly to encourage the growth of that article ; and when the farmers are making such an excellent profit on this kind of produce, they ought to consent to a relaxation of the corn laws in favour of the coniumer. There ha.; been very little business done in the Cloth Halls at Leeds since our last report, and but few buyers being over at market, the transactions have been very limited in the warehouse. BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY,--There is no im provement in the wool-market this week. Our report is similar to that of last week—that no alteration has taken place in the demand for yarn. There has been very little r,usiness done to-day ; the few sales effected were at ruinously low prices for the manufacturers. MACHINERY AT BRADFORD. —We believe that the machine makers of Bradford never had so many orders for machinery as they have at the present time. As a proof of this, we may state that a very respectable manu facturer of that place, who employs a great many mecha nics on his premises, found it necessary to issue an order for some frames, but the nature of their engagements did not <alow the machine-makers of Bradford to avail them selves of it. The order was the❑ sent to Leeds, hut re turned with a similar answer. This is a cheering indi cation of confidence in the future prosperity of the stuff manufacture. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET.—Ti e market has ly.ten r Alter slack. The manufacturers find difficulty in disposing of their cloths for a profit, and as they see no propect of a decline in the price of foreign wools, they prefer holding their goods to selling them at a sacrifice, and profiting by past experience, they are generally making fewer pieces, which will prevent the overstocking of the market, and a consequent reduction of prints. Business is very flat at Dewsbury. Heckmondwike market on Monday last was uncommonly dull. ROCIIDALE FLANNEL MARKET.-The flannel market on Monday was thinly attended, and few goods of any kind were sold, and those were chiefly of inferior qualitie., and a few greys for dying, which were purchased at the prices of the ensuing week. 'The buyers seem to think that a reduction will take place in the raw material, and they are unwilling to purcha.e except for present uses. MANCHESTER.-There has been no material alteration this week in the demand for manufactured goods, and the business transacted has not been extensive. The market has been well attended by country buyers, but when they ascertained the present fluctuating state of the cotton mar. ket, and perceived that the holders of cloth were endea vouring to obtain a corre4ponding advance upon goods, they confined their purchases to very limited quantities. The manuf.ctuters have not found it practicable to realiza any advance upon their former prices.—Manchester Chronicle. . . Pcmrsarounr, Ma actr B.—The following is an ex tract from a letter we have received :—" Malta, Feb. 18.—An English schooner, the Meteor, Wage master, while discharging a cargo of gunpowder, from London, at the Marina, in this port, blew up this morning with most fearful effects. Her cargo was 300 barrels, three of which were stove during the passage, from the vessel having ex perienced very bad weather, and 300 lbs. of the powder was consequently loosely strewed about the bold ; all the rest bad been landed and conveyed away; as it is, this has caused the sudden destruction of twenty-eight per-- sous, whose bodies have been already discovered. Among 'hem are the Captain, two merchants, and a Custom-house i , fficer. The vessel is totally destroyed. The St. Vincent, 120 guns, having been driven ashore from her moorings, has suffered considerably ; she remained aground for three days, and, to enab!e her being got off, all her guns, ballast, and water were obliged to be discharged. Two brigs have become wrecks by the same violent squall known here as a gregalii. We daily expect the arrival of Sir J. Rowley. The St. Vincent, Caledonia, Britannia, Mada gascar, Malabar, Talavera, Barham, Favourite. Champion, Beacon, Mastiff, and Meteor, are in this port. The St. Vincent is ordered to Portsmouth to be paid off, and will sail in a few days." On Sunday the Prince Regent transport, Lieut.

A numerous and highly respectable meeting of the in habitants was held on Thursday in the Town Hall, to consider the advantages or disadvantages likely to arise to the town, from the adoption ( f the Great Western Rail road. The meeting was convened by requisition, and the Mayor, T. Lawrance, Esq., was called to the chair, who commenced the proceedings by briefly adverting to the objects of the meeting, and its importance to every gentle man, and bespoke for every gentleman, of whatever opi-. nion, an impartial hearing. Mr. SAUNDERS, the secretary, on being called on to state the general advantages proposed to the town by the company, entered into a very full detail of the circumstances connected with the origin and progress of the undertaking, the various benefits which had arisen in other districts where railroads had been established, were all pointed out to the meeting, and he showed clearly that the like bene fits would be secured to the town of Reading by the adop tion of the present measure. After correcting many mie representations which bad been made on the part of their opponents, Mr. Saunders declared himself ready to an swer any question which might be put to him, the com pany having nothing to conceal, but being anxious to make the fullest and most unre.erved communications, in order that the inhabitants of Reading should come to a resolution upon the deliberate conviction of their own minds, and not upon a m e r e ,Ten• ral statement. The meeting was subsequently addressed by several other gentlemen, residents, who coincided in the evident advan tages an improved means of communication with the metropolis must afford them. Mr. HARRIS, in oppc.sition, expressed his fears that it would interfere with the profits arising from the Thames navigation, and injure the turnpike roads by the diminished traffic, which would take place on them in consequence of the railway. Mr. LAW, also a Commissioner of the Thames Navi gation, concurred in these sentirmnts. Mr. VINES, in reply to these arguments, maintained that the present profits arising from the Thames Naviga tion, however individually acceptable, were no ground for perpetuating a bad mode of conveyance, and debarring the public from the enjoyment of a better ; and so far from deteriorating the turnpike roads, it was clearly shown, by the experience of those at present existing on p irallel lines with railways, that they were now in a better and more flourishing condition than before the construction of the railways, owing to the diminished traffic upon them of those articles most prejudicial to their preservation ; and in confirmation of these statements, Mr. Vines read an extract from the evidence of Joseph Pease, Esq., M.P., before a committee of the House of Lords. The feeling of the meeting seemed nearly unanimous in favour of the views taken in support of the measure; and on the resolutions being put, only five or six hands were held up in opposition. At the conclusion of the meeting, petitions in favour of the bill now before Parliament were very numerou.ly signed, resolutions having passed that the melliblrs for the county and borough be requested to give them their sup port! Altogether, we certainly never saw a more unequivocal expression of approv of this great undertaking than that be4towed o❑ this occasion, and by one of the most nume rous and respectable meetings we have ever attended in the Town Hall of Reading. M. Ventouillac, Professor of French Litera ture in King's College, died yesterday se'imight of pd• inonary consumption. M. Ventouillac was born at Calais in 1796. He bad r, sided in England eighteen years. ACCIDENT ON THE RAILWAY.--Yester day as the train of carriages was crossing the turnpike road, about a mile from Bolton, the engine came in con tact with a two-horse load of coal. So violent was the concussion that the cart was broken, and one of the bind legs of the shaft-horse was cut clean off, and the other smashed. The poor creature lived in this state for about a quarter of an hour, when he was stabbed, and an end put to his bufferings. The other horse way knocked down, remained a considerable time undrr the tinder, and was dead when ex!ricated.—Liverpool Mercury. Saturday, at eleven o'clock, Henry Hughes was brought from Horsemonger-lane Gaol, to undergo an examination before Mr. Samuel Elyard, and the Rev. J. Prodgera, at Streatham Common, on a charge of having brutally violated Emma Cook, a child of only eight years of age, in Penge wood, on Monday last. A rumour which bad very generally got abroad that the outrage had been accompanied by an act of atrocious barbarity on the part of the prisoner, caused a great number of persons to assemble before the residence of Mr. Elyard, and as their indignation was likely to endanger the personal safety of the prisoner, precautions were us:rl to bring him as privately as possible to the house of that magistrate. Having been safely conveyed to Streatham in a close cart by BAser, one of the Croydon constables, he was placed in the justice-room, strongly hand cu ff e d , b etween two officers. The prisoner appeared of rather mild appear ance, about 22 years of age, and had the look of a com mon labourer. lie was then fully committed to take his trial at the ensuing mixes. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BO W- S TREE T. BURGLARS( IN LINCOLN'S INN FIELDS.-Information was in the course of the week received at this office of a robbery which had been effected in the house of a gentle min named Meredith, residing at 25, Lincoln's Inn-fields, on Tuesday night, when plate to a large amount was carried off. The thieves, it appeared, made their entrance over some stables situated in Whetstone Park, at the rear of Mr. Meredith's house, when on opening the kitchen window, which was without a fastening, they had free access to the house. The plate, it appeared, was left over night in a chest in the pantry, the door of which was locked by the housemaid, and the key placed on the mantel-piece, and covered with a cloth. On the ruornin.2 of the robbery the kry was found in the same position in which it had been left on the previous night, and the door of the pantry still locked, the plate, however, having been removed. John Egan, an Irishman, of decent exterior, was on Saturday put to the bar, charged on suspicion of being concerned in the above robbery. Mr. Meredith was informed on Wednesday morning last, by his housemaid, that a strange ►nan had visited his cook on the previous Friday. He then called up the cook.; when after considerable hesitation, she admitted the fact, describing the prisoner as the person who hod so visited her ; and on the previous morning, on his again calling, witness caused him to be taken into custody. The cook was now present, and could explain the nature of their connection. The cook, on being called forward stated that about a fortnight back she was in Cleveland-street, when, having missed her way, she requested the prisoner, of whom she had no previous knowledge, to direct her to Tottenham court road. After giving her the necessary instructions, ha followed her and entered into conversation, in the course of which he told her that he had been on the pint of marriage with a lady's maid ; but having ascertained that, during his aisoence at Bath, she had permitted the addresses of another man, be re fused to marry her. He had then, he said, made a vow that he would wed the first woman he saw with whom lie thought lie could live happily ; she was that woman ; and, with her consent, they would meet again. He con tinued to urge his suit most strenuously, assuring her of his honour•alile intentions, and she at length consented to meet him on the following Tuesday in Lincoln's Inn fields. He there repeated his vows, and informed her that his name was James Clynch, but declined introducing her to any of Iris friends or connexions, as he was residing in the same house with a cousin, whom it was expected he was about to marry ; he should, however, immediately break off that match, and fulfil his promise with regard to her. On the following Friday the prisoner, with her consent, visited her at her master's house, when he drank tea with her, but went away at an early hour, never having left the kitchen during his visit. On his going away, he promised again to visit her, but did not mention any specific time. She did not see him again till last Fri. day, when he was given into custody. Mr. illussittn.r. said that there was not sufficient evi dence on which he could detain the prisoner. He must therefore be discharged. 21fAR Y LEB ONE. A proprietor of extensive livery-stables, in the neigh bourhood of the Regent's Park, was brought up on a charge of having violated his servant, a good-looking gut 1, about fifteen years of age, the daughter of industrious people, living in Duke -street, Lisson-gr6ve. The defendant, who is a middle-aged man, and has a family of six children, was accompanied to the office by his wife, who evinced much astonishment at the serious charge. The complainant slept in a back room, with two of her master's children. In the dead of Tuesday night she was awoke out of her sleep by finding a Man in her bed. She jumped up, and her master, whom she distinctly saw, then quitted the room in haste. The complainant stated such particulars as to prove a capital offence, provided her statement is to he credited. She did not mention the occurrence till Thursday, and then shs ran home to her mother. A medical man said the complainant had been greatly injured by the treatment she had received. The defendant, who denied the charge, was held to bail to answer the charge at the sessions. Q UEEN. SQUAR E. ROBBING TILE LATE WHIPI4II. IN OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.—Two well-known pickpockets, named John and Robert Harris, were placed at the bar before Mr. Burrell, charged with stealing a pocket handkerchief, valued at 35., from the person of Wm. Holmes, E,q., the late member fur the ,l franchised rotten borough of Has!emere. Mr. Holmes resided at No. 10, Grafton-street. He tvas pasoing down Parliament -street, about a Turter past six o'clock in the eveniny, with his friend Mr. Croker, when he felt something at his coat pocket, and, on turn ing round, he saw the prisoner John Harris with his handkerchief in his Irrnd, in the act of throwing it to the other prisoner, who caught it and ran off. He immedi ately collared him, and Mr. Croker ran after the other prisoner, and succeeded in taking him with the handker chief in his possession. John Wilson Croker, Esq., the late member for the disfranchised rotten bornuelt of Aldeburgh, confit med the above statement, and added that he never lost sight of the prisoner. He called out " Stop thief," and a police con stable laid bold of him. _ _ The prisoners, in defence, said that they bad been over the water to see a sister, and as they were returning home the hlndkerchief was blown to them. Mr. BURRELL ordered them to be fully committed for trial, and the parties bound over to prosecute. The prisoners were then removed. The honourable ex-members, as soon as they had got into the clerk's room, began to discover that the prosecu tion would be attended with some little trouble, and they returned to the magistrate, when, after some conversation, which we could not distinctly hear, the prisoners were ordered to be again placed at the bar. Inspector Mallihue, of the A division, knew both pri soners well! they were notorious pickpockets, and one of them had been convicted before. The prisoner had nothing to say, and Mr. BURRELL committed them both for six weeks to the House of Correction, as reputed thieves. T HAATES-P OLICE. THE PUBLICAN AND THE SlNNEKs.—SurahEdmunds, a stout woman, fair and fat, hut somewhat more than forty, was brought before Mr. CoalßE,charged on a peace warrant threatening the life of Mrs. Sarah Elizabeth Chapman, wife of Mr. John Chapman, the landlord of the Marlborough Head, Fox's-lane, Shadweil. The domestic quarrels of the parties have been frequently brought be fore the notice of the magistrates. About three months ago Mrs. Edmunds was charged lay Mr. John Chapma n w ith b rea ki ng hi s g l as , es an d abusing his wife, who, after a long separation, he had again restored to her old place in the bar, and Mrs. Ed munds was then held to bail to keep the peace towards all his Majesty's liege subjects, and particularly towards John and Sarah El . zabeth Chapin in. Mrs. Edmunds on that occ ison declared that John Chapman loved her little finger better than his wife's whole body, and that he would soon be glad to send for her again. Her prediction proved to be too true, and John Chapman now appeared as a witmss against his own wife, and full of zeal for Mrs. Edmunds, whom he believed " the very best of women." On the defendant being placed at the bar, she ad dressed the magistrates with her usual volubility, and said that Mrs. Chapman had robbed her husband, and he bad been compelled to turn her out again. Mr. COMUE—You must hold your tongue. What are you?—l am Mr. Chapman's servant. Mr. COMBS—And something else ?—Why, I may be --that's private.• —(Laughter.) Mrs. Chapman had been Chapman's wife 25 years, and his ill-usage had been so great, that about four or five years ago she was compelled to leave him. By the assistance of a professional gentleman, she was enabled to go into business, and mss for some time landlady of the Grapes, Duke-street, Lincolns Inn-fields. About three months ago he quarrell e d with Mrs. Edmunds, and sent fur her (the complainant) again, and she went home and officiat.d in the bar. On the Ist of January the de fendant called at the house, while she was sitting in the bar, and demanded a quartern of gin, declaring that she was as much mistress of the house as any one living. She refused to serve her, and desired her to leave the house, but she refused to do so, and abused her in language the THE LANDED GENTRY OF ENGLAND.
