An extraordinary sensation has prevailed through out Hornsey, Islington, and its vicinity, in conse quence of the death of. a young woman, who was found in the New River on Thursday afternoon. An inquest was held on Saturday on the body of the above young woman, and whose name was Jane Bond. The jury proceeded to view the body, which was placed in a shed adjoining the Sluice House, High bury, where the Coroner's inquiry took place. The body presented the form of a very young girl, and on examination of her person there appeared to be marks of considerable violence. Her throat was very much discoloured, and "on her forehead a wound was visible, which must have been inflicted before immersion. One of her wrists was also bruised, and upon the whole the jurors were of opinion that it was quite necessary a medical man should examine the body. As the parish doctor was not present, one of the jurymen volunteered to fetch him : John Lizard, japanner, No. 1, Allen-street, Gos well-street, knew the deceased, who was a married woman ; but, as he believed, separated from her husband. Met the deceased on Easter Monday, about one o'clock, on Clerkenwell-green. Went to the Sluice House about four o'clock the same afternoon, and there saw the deceased again, in company with three females, whom he knew by sight. The females were not, in witness's opinion, women of loose character. About eight o'clock in the evening witness •saw the deceased in the long room of the Sluice House, sitting apart from the company. Had heard that the deceased, and a girl named Hester Sexton, had gone together to the bar of the Sluice House, and had procured drink there. Between nine and ten o'clock the deceased left the house in company of Sexton's father and mother and the two daughters. Witness saw the deceased and Hester Sexton lying on the grass at the bottom of the hill which adjoins the New River. None of the party were sober. Mr. and Mrs. Sexton went towards the deceased ; and Hester Sexton, and witness and his party, went on. When witness and his party got as far as Woodbine Cottage a young man named Paneller said, " Stop, I think I hear somebody calling." The party went back to the stile, and there ascertained that Sexton, the father, had been beating his daughter, who was tipsy. Somebody then asked, " Where is Jane ?" meaning the deceased. Sexton replied, " Has she not gone on with you ?" and was answered, " No." Sexton said, " Then she must be behind." The Coroner here remarked, that it was not un likely the deceased, when she saw Sexton beating his daughter, had got up and ran away, and thus had fallen into the river—an opinion in which some of the jury coincided. Mr. Hands, the surgeon, having in the meantime arrived, proceeded to examine the body. Upon the whole witness discovered nothing to induce him to believe that the deceased came to her death by any other than accidental means. After censuring the conduct of the young men with whom the deceased had passed the evening, for leaving her lying on the ground in a state of intoxication, the jury returned a verdict of " Found Drowned."

Among the houses visited was the King's Head, in Orchard-street, a house celebrated as the resort of the vocal and instrumental talent of that neighbourhood, and their lordships mingled in the most anti-aristocratical manner with the ladies and gentlemen in the tap-room. Copious quan tities of heavy wet were ordered in, and, by special de sire, the whole of the company sang the celebrated glee and chorus, " For England, 01" So much was it en joyed, that it was encored six times ; and when the party left, having first replenished the cans and pipes, they were greeted with loud and long continued cheers. Various other houses were visited, where similar scenes presented themselves. " Miss Edgeworth," says the Quarterly Review, " never writes without adding to the stock of public amusement, and strengthening those impres sions that are favourable to virtue." The subject of her new novel " Helen," is to illustrate the conse quences of concealment and falsehood. Miss Edge worth has most successfully maintained her celebrity by the able, yet varied, sketches of character given throughout this interesting tale. From the virtuous good sense evinced, the native manners of society vi gorously delineated, besides the cheerful and amusing mode in which all the information is conveyed, we have no hesitation in declaring, that the readers and ad mirers of romance must feel pleasingly fascinated with the latest production of the most celebrated authoress in the present age. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—WAftwicx, APRIL 4. (Before Chief Justice TINDAL.) FLORANCE V. TIBBITTS. This case, in which Sir James Scarlett was spe cially retained for the defendant, excited the most in intense interest in this borough. It was one of several actions in the plaintiff's name to recover penalties to a very large amount for bribery at the last Warwick election. The defendant, Mr. James Tibbitts, is a young man who was, some time since, appointed town-clerk of Warwick. He was agent for Sir C. Greville, who was returned to parliament for the borough on the conservative interest, and subse quently unseated by a report of the committee of the House of Commons on the ground of bribery. Mr. Hill and Mr. Waddington were counsel for the plaintiff ; and Sir James Scarlett, Mr. Sergeant Goulburn, and Mr. Hayes, for the defendant. After the jury were sworn, some conference took place between the learned counsel on both sides. Mr. WADDINGTON then opened the pleadings, and Mr. HILL shortly addressed the jury. When first he opened his brief lie said the feelings he ex perienced were of the most painful kind, because he found that he had been selected to conduct a proceeding in the nature of a criminal charge against a gentleman with whom he had had the pleasure of being acquainted for some years, and whom he had always esteemed as a gentleman of honour and respectability. Painful, however, as the duty was which had thus been imposed upon him, he felt that it was one from which he should not' swerve. Upon subsequently considering the case most carefully, and conferring with the gentle man who instructed him, and with his learned friend, whose assistance he had the honour to have upon this occasion, he had, with their concurrence, come to the conclusion that he should not be swerving from his duty if he declined to offer any evidence against the defendant, but allowed a verdict of not guilty to be pronounced in his favour. He had come to this conclusion, because he felt satisfied, upon the most careful consideration of the evidence, that he could not succeed in establishing a case against the defendant. It was with the very great est pleasure, therefore, he informed the jury that they were at liberty to return a verdict of not guilty. Sir JAMES SCARLETT, on the part of the defend ant, begged to state, that although his learned friend had acted very properly in abandoning a case which he felt he could not substantiate, he (Sir J. Scarlett) was anxious it should be understood that his client w as fully prepared to meet the charge ; and what ever might have been the circumstances which had led to a particular result in another place, he begged to assure the jury that he had come down there to meet this case with the most perfect conviction that he should satisfy their minds that the defendant was entitled to a triumphant acquittal. The jury then returned a verdict for the de fendant. There are three other similar actions at the suit of the same plaintiff against other defendants, in one of which Sir James Scarlett is retained for the de fence, and which is appointed for to-morrow morn ing ; but it is generally supposed that none of them will be tried. The quidnuncs of Warwick, who are not in the secret, are very much puzzled to ascer tain the real cause of these much-talked-of actions terminating in so very unexpected a manner. GOMM V. ACKERMAN. This was an action of libel brought by the pro prietor of the Bedford Hotel, Leamington, against the publisher of the New Sporting Magazine. Mr. Sergeant Goulburn and Mr. Humfrey were counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr. Hill and Mr. Waddington for the defendant. The alleged libel consisted of a paragraph in the February number of the above periodical, in which the plaintiff's hotel, and two others at Leamington, were described as houses the guests at which re quired hardy constitutions and long purses, and the proprietors of which were stated to be rapacious. An offer on behalf of the plaintiff to accept a verdict for 405., with a retraction of the offensive allegations, was rejected on the part of the defendant. The publication having been proved and read, the defendant's counsel, in an amusing speech, (PRICE 70.) diculed the notion of converting an idle crilicikm on the Leamington hotels into a serious charge of libel ; and contended that so far from the plaintiff being damnified by the paragraph in question, he well knew that it would serve him as an advertise ment of his hotel. The jury, after having retired for some time, re turned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, One farthing. SATURDAY. FLORANCE V. ORAM. This was another action by the same plaintiff against the defendant, an inhabitant of this town, to recover penalties for bribery at the last Warwick election. After some conference between Mr. Sergeant Adams on the part of the plaintiff, and Sir James Scarlett on behalf of the defendant, a verdict was taken by con sent for the plaintiff for one penalty—namely, 5001. ; Sir James Scarlett stating, when he acceded to this proposal, that however confident he might feel of ob taining a verdict for the defendant on seven counts in the declaration, he admitted that on the remaining count he should have great difficulty in meeting the case. He expressed a hope that this arrangement might put an end to the dissensions by which this ancient and beautiful town was torn to pieces. Pork. THE SAME V. TREPAST. This was an action of a similar description, which was arranged• on the same terms as the preceding one, namely, a verdict for the plaintiff for 500/. damages on one count in the declaration, and a verdict for the de fendant on the others. THE SAME V. AYRES. This was another action of the same nature, but the trial was postponed to the next assizes in consequence of the illness of one of the witnesses. CHESTER, APRIL 4 , This afternoon Samuel Thorley, a tall and very respectable-looking man, 30 years of age, a nursery and seedsman, residing at Northwich, was put to the bar, indicted for the wilful murder of Mary Pemberton, a person to whom he was attached, 21 years of age, at Leftwich, near Northwich, on the 6th of December last. The intense interest mani fested by all classes to hear the trial was so great that the court was crowded almost to suffocation, and hundreds could not obtain admission. As the officer of the court was about to arraign the pri soner, _ . Mr. COTTINGIIAM, counsel for the prisoner, rose and said he was instructed by the friends of the prisoner to say that he was not in a fit situation to plead, being up to the present moment labouring under the same delusion as at the period of the commission of the offence. His Lordship knew nothing of the state of the prisoner's mind. The indictment must proceed in the regular way, and he must be called upon to plead. As soon as the prisoner waf arraigned, he, in a firm voice, said, " I am guilty." Mr. COTTINGHAM craved that a plea of not guilty might be entered upon the record, as in the case of Jonathan Martin, tried for the burning of York Cathedral. If this was done, he thought be should be able to prove that the prisoner had been, when the crime was committed, and was at the pre sent moment, labouring under strong delusion. Mr. Dunstan, governor of the gaol, was called, and deposed that since the day he came into his cus tody he had not manifested any signs of insanity. Sarah Pemberton—l am mother of the deceased, a widow, and reside at Leftwich. I had perceived there was an acquaintance between my daughter and the prisoner, Samuel Thorley. He drank tea at my house about five weeks before my daughter's death, and, in consequence of something I said at that time, there was a cessation of their acquaint ance. On the night of Friday, the 6th of Decem ber last, I went to bed at nine o'clock in the even ing. My sons were out. I had been in bed some time, when I heard two voices, one my daughter's; the other Thorley's. They were talking together. I retired to bed again, and about eleven o'clock I was aroused by a noise, and went down stairs. There was no light in the house, but I fancied I heard blood gushing from my daughter's body. My son came down stairs at this moment. Cross-examined by Mr. COTTINGHAM—I do not know how long they kept company together. Ido not know that my son-in-law was the cause of break ing up the acquaintance between my daughter and the prisoner. My daughter was entitled to about 2,0001. left by her father, and was a very amiable and affectionate girl. John Pemberton—l am brother of the de ceased. I returned home, on the night of the murder, at ten o'clock. My deceased sister let me in. I took my coat and shoes off ; and while at the foot of the stairs I heard the prisoner say, " You know I always told you so." I went to bed ; and about eleven o'clock, being alarmed by the screams of my mother, I ran down stairs, and found my sister with her throat dreadfully cut, lying by the parlour door, in the lobby ; she was quite dead at the time ; her head was nearly severed from her body. A razor was found in our garden on the Monday following..... Cross-examined by Mr. COTTINGHAM—The pri soner had kept company with my sister about eight months ; and from what I observed, I believe they were attached to each other. I accompanied her once to Northwich, and drank tea with the prisoner. This was last summer. There was a cessation of intercourse between my sister and the prisoner, in consequence of the receipt of an anonymous letter. By the COURT—Has the prisoner always appeared to you to be in his right mind ? Witness—l never saw anything to the contrary. Peter Banks (a boy)--I was, in December last, in the service of the prisoner. On Friday the 6th of December prisoner came home about eight o'clock, and said to me he never had disappointed the de ceased, and he would see her that night. I went to bed soon after nine o'clock, and between 11 and 12 I was awakened by my master knocking at the door. He asked for a light, and said " I have cut her throat." I asked him with what ;he replied " with the black razor." The prisoner had one black and one white-hafted razor in his bed room. He then washed himself; and asked for some fresh clothes to put on. He said to me, " I expect you can't believe me," and then he pointed my attention to some blood on his right hand, his brow, and on , his shirt collar. He burnt his flannel shirt and his collar. He then drew a sofa to the fire and lay down about an hour. He told me he would go again to the same place. He went out, and in a short time afterwards he returned and lay down, saying he could not see anything but a light in Pemberton's house. He afterwards got up and took some tea, and said he would go to Chester. I said I would go and tell his father what he had done. I I accompanied him ; and when we got near to Mrs. ; Pemberton's gate be asked me to go to the house, as he should like to know whether she was dead. I went part of the way, but was so alarmed that I turned back. When I came to the place where I left the prisoner he was gone. Cross-examined—The deceased and prisoner ap-i peared to be always very fond of each other. She took tea frequently at the prisoner's house. I saw him take brown medicine out of a bottle several times, a few weeks before this happened. He ap peared to be distressed and unhappy in his mind shortly before this affair happened, and on the night of the murder he said, speaking of the deceased, " She is the sweetest creature that ever lived." He neglected his business, and used to sit frequently with his hands between his knees crying. The de ceased had visited my master about a month before her death. Joseph Pembei ton—l am brother to the deceased. On the Monday before this unfortunate affair I was in a public-house at Davenham. The prisoner was there, and he called me out of the house and asked me what was the reason that he could not see my sister as before. He said, " I want to see her once more, and I don't care if I go to the devil after wards " He wished to accompany me home that night to see her, but I told him he had better not do so ; and when I parted from the prisoner he said, " Probably we shall not meet again." Cross-examined—The prisoner went to his fa ther's, 1.5 miles from Northwich, soon after the match was broken off. My sister felt uneasy at his departure ; and, in consequence of the receipt of an anonymous letter, I went to the prisoner at his fa ther's house. My sister and the prisoner appeared to be on the most affectionate terms with one an other ; and when their acquaintance was broken off, the prisoner appeared low spirited. Mr. John Dunstan—About ten o'clock in the morning of the 7th of December last the prisoner came to the Castle ; and, as I understood he had something to communicate to me, I went to him. He then made a statement, which I wrote down, to the effect that he courted a young woman named Mary Pemberton, and that, in consequence of her refusing to have him, on her letting him out at her mother's door, he cut her throat with a razor, which he had taken for the purpose. A magistrate afterwards came into the Castle, and the prisoner signed this statement in his presence. I have been connected with gaols upwards of twenty years, and it is the first case in which I ever heard of a pri soner surrendering himself. lam of . opinion that the prisoner is perfectly sane. Here the case for the prosecution closed ; and on the prisoner being asked if he had any thing to say, he replied, " No, my Lord ;—I am guilty." Mr. COTTINGHAM now called Jonathan Thorley, brother of the prisoner. He said, on the 10th December my brother came to my father's house. He appeared as a man deranged. ' He got up fre quently in the night, and sighed and moaned. I slept with him that night, and his behaviour was so extraordinary that I wished to take him home to my father's house. I left Northwich about five o'clock in the afternoon. Mr. Twemlow, surgeon, of Northwich—l have known the prisoner four years, and always consi dered him a very humane and kind-hearted man. I have known instances wherein persons have been quite of sound mind on all subjects but one. His LORDSHIP summed up the evidence with great perspicuity, and The Jury, after a few minutes' consultation, re turned a verdict of Guilty. His LORDSHIP, putting on the black coif, said, " You are, indeed, a melancholy instance of a man, who had been previously esteemed by those who knew you as a good and humane individual, coming to an untimely end. Being disappointed in your expectations yourself, you wreaked your vengeance upon the person of her whom you appeared to re gard as the object of your affection. Your days are numbered (here his lordship's feelings so overcame him, that he could scarcely proceed). You must soon appear before the bar of the Almighty, for mercy on earth cannot be extended to you. I have only now to perform a duty which to me is most painful. The sentence of the Court is, that you be taken to the place from whence you came ; and that on Monday next you be taken from thence to the place of execution, and there be hanged by the neck until you be dead, and that afterwards your body be interred within the precincts of the gaol ; and may the Lord have mercy on your soul." The prisoner, who throughout the trial had co vered his face with his handkerchief, and leaned on the front of the dock during the whole time that his lordship was addressing him, remained quite un moved durinc , this solemn address ; and at its con clusion he walked away from the bar with a firm step. Great numbers of the auditory were deeply affected during the progress of the trial, and while his lordship was passing sentence. EAST INDIA SHIPPING.

SEIZURE FOR THE HOUSE AND WINDOW TAXES.—Between one and two o'clock on Saturday considerable excitement prevailed in the neighbour hood of York-street and the Broadway, Westminster, in consequence of a cart belonging to Davis, the She riffs' officer, of Red Lion-square, stopping at the house of Mr. Tripp, the broker, of York-street, when a man of the name of Whittaker got out and seized M. r. Tripp's goods for the house and window duties, amounting to nearly 9/. Mr. Tripp, who has been one of the stanchest members of th e Westminster Associa tion for the Repeal of the House and Window Duties, said that they might take his property if they pleased, but he would never pay any more money for such un jtt and oppressive imposts. Six Brussels and two Kidderminster carpets, which cost Mr. Tripp 201., were soon bundled into the cart, which drove off at a rapid rate with the spoil. Whittaker then went to several other persons in the same neighbourhood and applied for the house and window taxes, but th e y were refused, and he said that he would give them until Monday to pay. A body of the new police, scattered about the street, were in readiness to act if necessary.
