(Before Mr. Justice Byles.) THE ALLEGED MURDER IN WESTMINSTER. William Maloney, 40, labourer, was indicted for the wilful ;murder of his wife, Mary Maloney, on the 2d of September. The prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr. Clarke and Mr. Orridge prosecuted, and Mr. Sleigh defended the prisoner. Mr. Clark having stated the case against the prisoner, called the following witnesses : Eliza Duckwell said—T live with my father, in Leg sourt. Known deceased about ten months. Last saw her alive about 10 minutes after 12 on the Monday. I met her in Peter-street. Catherine Welsh was with me. Deceased was going towards home. We made some fun of a young man, and she went away laughing. She was quite sober. She had a pot of beer in a can. After his:l went into my own house, No. 4 in the court, four &ors from the deceased. I had some milk, which I was in the act of putting on the table, when my brother ran in, and said, " Mr. Maloney is fighting, and his smock is all over blood." With this I ran out into the court and sa w Maloney standing between the window and street door. He was looking at the sleeve of his smock on which was blood. It was his right sleeve. I saw blood in the passage, and his little girl, about seven years old, crying. She was in the court. I looked through the window and saw de ceased lying on the floor, resting' on her elbow, and she gradually sunk down. She rose up again a very little way from the ground to put her hand to her forehead. I saw blood coming from her shoulder. I said, " Oh, Mr. Ma loney, your wife is dead; how was it done ?" He said she did it herself. He repeated this three times. I ran down the court, and met my father half way. Samuel Gordon, 241 B, said—About 25 minutes after twelve on Monday, the 2d of September, I was in Peter street, and a man said, " I think there was murder in Leg court." Ido not know the man. It was not Saunders. I went to the spot, and saw several people. As I got to the door I met Mr. Payne, and he told me a woman had been stabbed, and that she was quite dead. I saw a quantity of blood on the floor, a woman lying on the bed with blood about her dress. I saw a wound in her neck on the left side. I asked the woman how it was done, and a man sitting at the end of the table made answer and said, " She done it herself. I was sitting down eating my dinner when she picked up the knife and stabbed her self, and then threw the knife away." I cleared the room of the people and searched it, and told Maloney to get up and move his chair, and after lifting the tea-tray I found the knife sticking in the board behind it. The serf eant then came, and he was taken to the station. He there re peated his former statement, that she had done it herself. By Mr. Sleigh—l did not ask the prisoner how the woman came to her death. The statement he made was quite voluntary. Police constables Maxted and Mason gave similar evidence as the previous witness. Mason, however, gave a more exact account of the remarks made by the prisoner when he was taken into custody. Maloney said " She done it herself. 1 know nothing about it." I then cautioned him in the usual form. He then said, " I was having a few words with my with wife, and I sent my child out for some oats for the rabbit. I was eating my bread, potatoes, and bacon, and when I had done I laid my knife on the table. She took it up and done it herself, and threw the knife away." I asked him who liftedjher on the bed, and he said "I don't know." He said he did not assist. I looked at his hands and clothes. Both hands had blood on them ; most on the right one, and blood on the right sleeve of his slop. On the cuff of the right sleeve of the shirt are spots of blood, and some on the front of the trousers on the right leg. There are also spots of blood on his shoes. At the station, the sergeant said, "H e has got some blood on the inside of the leg of his trousers," to which he replied, "If either of ye had been there ye would have had the same." He also stated that his wife had said she would commit suicide. Mr. Taylor, chief clerk at the Westminster Police-court, read the statement made by the prisoner. It was similar to that made to the police-constable. Dr. Payne,Pimlico, sai I—l was called on th r e 12, to 2, L eg -court, to see a person who it was stated had stabbed he rse lf. I f oun d th e 2d inst.,about Denbigh-street, half-past woman Maloney lying on the floor in a la rge poo l o f bl oo d . I - saw a wound on the left side of the neck, from which bleed was still flowing. With assistance I got her on to the bed. I asked Maloney to assist, and he said "No, I can't." I asked him if he was the husband, and he said he was. I said, " How did this happen, have you been quarrelling ?" He said " No. I had just come in to my dinner and had placed my pocket -knife by the side of my plate, when she; suddenly seized it and stabbed herself, Keying " I have done it at last." The knife had penetrated the cavity of the chest, and a large quantity of blood had passed into it. The knife produced would cause such a wound. It would require a very sharp blow to inflict the wound. I certainly don't think the deceased could have inflicted the wound herself. Justice Byles—From your observation was it probably a suicidal wound or not. Witness—Probably it was a self inflicted wound. Joseph Saunders—l formerly lived in Somers Town. On the Monday of the occurrence I was looking for lodgings, and walked down Leg-court. As I was going up some party told me there was a place in Bennet's-yard, March mount-street, and I went to the door in Leg-court, on the left hand side, and looked in and saw a man strike a woman with a knife. I afterwards saw him in custody of the police. He struck on the left side of the neck. I have no doubt Maloney is the same man. I saw the blood flow on his right hand. She screamed out a little. He did not say a word. I came off out, and said to some women, "There's murder," and went away. I did not point out where. I said, " There is murder in one of the houses." I saw three policemen take Maloney out of the court directly after, and I pointed him out as the same man at the police court. By Mr. Sleigh—l was quite a stranger in NV estminster when I saw the deed done. I did not rush in to render assistance. I went away after it occurred. I did not think it my duty to accompany the police to the station. I was frightened, and did not know hardly what I did. I know I still continued looking for lodgings. I had been cut of work for four weeks previous to the occurrence. I went and had my dinner after I saw the man stab the woman. I will swear I was not in the eating-house 10 minutes. I did not mention a single word about the occurrence. I will swear I did not say to the woman in the eating-house " I've just seen a woman stab herself." I have sworn I had not been into any place of refreshment before I went home, but I don't call having the two or three ounces of pudding refreshment. Before I came to London I was employed as a farm labourer. The first time I had ever been in a court of justice was when I went before the magistrate. I did not hear witnesses exa mined after I had given my evidence. I had nothing to drink when I had my dinner. I did not go into a drinking house after I left the shop. Re-examined by Mr. Clarke—The mates of the prisoner have threatened my life if I gave evidence in this case. I had neither read nor been told anything about the circum stance before I' told my wife what I had seen in Leg court. I told her about it when I got home about eight o'clock in the evening. I also told Mr. Calder about it. He went .with me to the police-station. I did not hear any witness examined before I gave my evidence. The learned Judge then closely questioned the witness as to his antecedents. Justice Byles—Are yol a churchman ? Witness—All my life I've not had much time to go to church. Justice Byles—You have heard of the commandments Witness—Yea. Justice Byles—The one that says, Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour ? Witness—Yes. Justice Byles—Do you know that man's life is in your hands ? Witness—Yes. Justice 1 3yles—Knowing that, do you still persist in the statement you have made ? itness—l do. The man at the bar is the person I saw stab the woman. lam certain of it. A Juror—Did you see the blow struck ? Witness—l did ; and I also saw the blood flow on the pri soner's hand after he did it. This closed the examination of Saunders. The case was proceeding when we went to press. NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Keating.) ALLEGED FRAUDULENT BANKRUPTCY. John Dales, 40, contractor, was indicted for that he, having been duly adjudged a bankrupt, within three months of the said adjudication unlawfully obtained a large quan tity of goods to the value of £1,285, with intent to defraud Samuel Woodhouse. The evidence in this case was quite uninteresting to the general reader. The trial will occupy the whole of the day. THIRD COURT. (Beforo the Common Sergeant.) Thomas Quinlan, 18, was indicted for burglariously en tering the dwelling-house of Henry Harris, and stealing therein a silver milk•pot and other articles. The Common Sergeant thought there was no evidence against the prisoner, and the jury immediately acquitted When Prince Alfred arrived at Queenstown on board the Niagara he was waited on by Rear-Admiral Talbot and Commodore Yelverton, commander of the Coast guard,'-whom he received in the most cordial manner, and accepted an invitation to sail about the harbour in the beau tiful yacht Argus while the Niagara was awaiting the arri val of the special train from Dublin. His Royal Highness is said to have expressed, himself greatly delighted with-the capabilities of the harbour and the beauty of the surround ing scenery. The Cork Herald says that, finding such a rush of passengers, especially ladies, on board the Niagara f om the Great Eastern, he most kindly expressed his readi ness to give up the large apartments that had been assigned him, and to rough it during the voyage —an offer which won for the gallant young prince great applause. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.—Sept. 26. A portion of the following appeared in our impression of yesterday evening : OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Byles.) THE MURDER IN HOLBORN. William Cogan, described as a labourer, aged 35, was in dicted for the wilful murder of his wife, Mary Ann Cogan, aged 30, on the morning of the 3d of August last, in New ton-street, Holborn. The prisoner, who was accommodated with a seat, pleaded not guilty, and during the progress of the trial paid anxious attention to the evidence. Mr. Clarke and Mr. Orridge appeared for the prosecu tion, and Mr. Ribton defended the prisoner. Mr. Ribton cross-examined the several witnesses who saw the prisoner on the night in question, and particularly the police constables to whom the prisoner went up to, and to whom he made the admissions at the hospital, but nothing material was elicited to affect , their previous evidence. Mr. Painter, the surgeon who first saw the deceased, and afterwards made a post mortem examination of the body, , repeated his previous evidence; and, in cross-examination by Mr. Ribton, said it was just possible, but altogether improbable, from the nature of the wounds on the deceased, that she could have done it herself ; and, in his opinion they must have been inflicted by some other person. Mr. Fortescue, the surgeon of King's Collage Hospital, described the nature of the wound on the throat of the pri soner, and said there was nothing inconsistent that it might have been done by another person. Mead, the waiter at the Queen and Prince Albert, deposed to the fact of the prisoner about half-past one coming to the house and having a pint of beer, and stating, " By God, I'll do it," and said he lost some money. Mr. Clarke said that was the whole of the case for the prosecution. The Court then adjourned for a short time, and on their return, Mr. Ribton proceeded to address the jury for the pri soner. After half an hour's absence the jury returned into court with a verdict of Guilty. The Clerk of the Arraigns asked the prisoner if he had anything to say why sentence of death should not be passed upon him. Cogan, raising his hand, said—l never done it ;if I. did I hope God may break my neck going down stairs. I never did it. Your are a wicked man (pointing to the medical witness) ; you've caused the death of an innocent man. It ought not to be left to the evidence of one man; it ought to be left to the evidence of two or three. I never did it. I never did it. - Mr. Justice Byles then put on the black cap, and sen tence of death was passed in the usual form. The learned judge held out no hope of mercy. THE RECENT RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT KENTISH-TOWN. Mr. Best, on the part of Rayner, against whom a ver dict of manslaughter had been returned, the indictment for which had been ignored by the grand jury, applied that the case might be taken to-morrow. Mr. Giffard hoped, under the circumstances, the case might be postponed till next session. Mr. Justice : yles said he could not allow such a charge to remain suspended for such a period. It must come on in the ordinary course to-morrow. MANSLAUGHTER. John Spiller, the sailor who was yesterday acquitted of the wilful murder of William Dixon, but found guilty of manslaughter, was brought up for sentence. The learned Judge said it was a very bad case, and be sentenced the prisoner to 10 years' penal servitude. NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Keating.) CHARGE OF RAPE. A respectable man, named Hearne,surrendered to an in dictment charging him with unlawfully knowing Sarah Johnson. Mr. Cooper and Mr. Dickie prosecuted, and Mr. Sleigh defended the prisoner. The facts of the case have already appeared at length in The Sun. It will be recollected that the prosecutrix was the wife of a policeman occupying apartments in the house kept by the prisoner in Upper Ebury-street. The offence was alleged to have been committed on the night of the 23d of August, when the prisoner, during the absence of her husband on duty, entered the prosecutrix's sleeping apartment and committed the outrage. The prosecutrix, a very good looking young woman, having repeated the evidence she gave at the Westminster Police conrt,was submitted to a long and minute cross-examination by Mr. Sleigh, with a view to show that she was labouring uneer a delusion, and that the charge made against the prisoner was altogether groundless. She said—l have cer tainly had medical advice lately, but certainly not for any mental delusion. My husband certainly has never, to my knowledge, been of opinion that I was subject to certain hallucinations. I have certainly never had medical advice on account of the state of my mind. I have been to Dr. Love, but then it was not that I laboured under delusion. I felt unwell, and accordingly, by my husband's direction, I went to see him. He told me I was not seriously unwell, but that a couple of bottles of medicine would put me all to rights. I never made charges against absent parties in the presence of Dr. Love. I did not tell him that a Spaniard had been following me about for months. My husband told him so to my pre sence. I never told Dr. Love I was labouring under a spell put upon me by an old woman. I don't know the meaning of the term "spell." If Dr. Love said before the magistrate I was suffering under some sort of delusion he must have made a mistake. He never told me I was labouring under any mental ailment. When I have con sulted Dr. Love he has always told me I was labouring under depression of spirits, but nothing further. I know a Mrs. Blanchard. She keeps a greengrocer's shop, but nothing more • One night after I had some oysters at her shop. I had a conversation with her, but I never told her I had just drank half a pint of vinegar. She did not remon strate with me upon the subject. I never said my husband locked me up because he could not trust me about alone. I never told Mrs. Blanchard that a Mr. Percival was con stantly following me ab•.ut and kissing his hand to me. I never asked a person named Ward about lodgings. I am certain I never mentioned Mr. Percival's name to him. I never charged Mr. Percival with kissing me. I have never made charges against other persons which, on being heard by a magistrate, have been discharged. Before I was mar ried I once went to Dr. Pepler's with a message. I never complained afterwards of an indecent assault being committed on me by his assistant. I never charged him with coming into my bed-room and kissing me. I know a Mrs. Anell. I lived in her house four years. She has always pretended to be my friend, but I know she has been, bought to give evidence against me. Re-examined by Mr. Cooper—l never charged Dr. Pepler's assistant with assault. I once went to his house to tell his assistant to give him a message. He said " All right, my dear," in a kind of offhand manner—and as I was leaving his shop he said something about my crinoline. Mrs. Hearne told me Dr. Love was a friend of theirs. By the Judge—The day before the occurrence took place which has led to these proceedings I was going upstairs, when the prisoner said, " What a nice leg you've got. I did not let my husband know of that. Police-constable 39 B said—On the 23d of August I saw the prosecutrix standing at Mr. Hearn's street door. She appeared very much excited, and told me she had been very ill used. Her husband came up, and then Mr. Hearn was taken to the station. When I first saw Mr. Hearn he was only partly dressed. The prosecutrix appeared as if she had been crying. By Mr. Sleigh—After the charge was made the prisoner was called out of his bedroom by Mr. Johnston, her hus band. When he came he was but partly dressed. Hearn when he'was told of the charge made against him, said the woman must be a liar. The medical testimony was to the effect that recent inti macy had occurred. Mr. Sleigh addressed the jury at some length for the prisoner. The prisoner having received the highest character for honour and honesty from a number of witnesses, the learned counsel called Dr. Batchelor, who said—The prosecutrix was in my service about two months. I would not believa her upon her oath. By Mr. Cooper—l would not believe her because she generally told falsehoods. She has often told me that the person who is now her husband was not in the house when she knew he was. Mr. Lewis—l am manager of a linendraper's in Farring don-street. The prosecutrix is a:niece of mine. I would not believe her on her oath. By Mr. Cooper—There has been a quarrel between the prosecutrix and my wife. Mrs. Anell—l live in Kenton-street, Brunswick-square. I have known the prosecutrix two years. I would not be lieve her on her oath. The jury, after nearly three hours' deliberation, returned a verdict of a Not guilty." THIRD COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant.) Ernest Tilley Ward, 31, clerk, was indicted for stealing various large sums of money, the property of his employers. It will be recollected that the prisoner was cashier in a large mercantile firm in the City, known as Coster, Den nant, and Co., and that it was alleged against him that at various times he had abstracted money from the firm amounting to some thousands. ' The jury, after nearly three hours' deliberation, returned a verdict of guilty, but strongly recommended the prisoner to mercy on the ground of long servitude, and condemned the way in which the books of the firm were kept. The Common Sergeant said he would not pass sentence until to-morrow, by which time it could be settled whether the other charges against the prisoner would be proceeded with. THREE AT A BIRTH. —On Thursday week the wife of James Watson, fisherman, Cromarty, gave birth to three sons. We are glad to understand that the mother and young fishermen are doing well. We learn that Mrs. Wat• son was, on two former occasions, delivered of twins—thus making her the happy mother of a considerable family in three i ll etalm euto• — itivfrgentvti Tinto. POLICE INTELLIG.ENCE..---( nil Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DAIVING.—Wm. Hutchinson, badge 3,575, was charged efore Beadon, as follows : From the evidence of George Stribling, cab proprietor, of 89, Gloucester-mews, it appeared that he was driving one of his cabs along Piccadilly, when the prisoner drove his cab up Lower Regent•street, at the rate of 12 miles an hour, in the most reckless manner, and notwithstanding his (complainant's) exertions he was not able to prevent a collision, a part of his cab being smashed. A constable, Godwin, 206 C, then came up and found that the prisoner was drunk, and that he was on his wrong side. He then took the prisoner into custody. Prisoner tried to make out that it was complainant's fault, but Mr. Beadon reminded him the constable had proved that he was drunk, and ordered him to pay a fine of 205., and 12s. damage, or, in default, two monthb' imprisonment. The prisoner asked that the fine might be reduced, but Mr. Beadon refused. CLERK E NWELL. William Wormold, a tailor, was charged with indecently exposing his person in 'runswick-square, last night (and on several previous occasions in the public streets), to five young girls of tender age, A detective-constable took him into custody last night, in Brunswick-square, about 9 o'clook. He was convicted on the two first charges, and sent for three months on the first, and the same on the second charge, to the House of Correc tion, with hard labour. THE ELECTION OF LORI) MAYOR. Some of our contemporaries have exclaimed s ery loudly against the departure from precedent that would be in volved in the re-election of the present Mayor for the ensuing year: As precedents are invoked the public may be glad to know how they stand. The following list of the Lord Mayors who have been elected more than once to the chief magistracy of the City of London shows that since the first institution of the office it has frequently been held for consecutive years by the same individual, whilst even within the last fifty years it has been held by two gentle men for two years—viz., Sir Matthew Wood, Bart., in 1815-16, and Sir John Key, Bart., in 1830-31, the latter having been alderman of the same ward as the presen Lord Mayor:— First Lord Mayor, Henry Fitz-Alwyn—For 25 years. 1189 to 1213 Serle Mercer—Seven times. 1214 1217 to 1222 REIGN OF RICHARD 11.

SHOCKING ACCIDENT ON THE NORTH KENT RAILWAY.—Last night, about 11 o'clock a very shocking accident happened at the Woolwich Arsenal Station on the North Kent Railway. A young man, a waiter at the Bull's Head public house, opposite the station, was stand ing on the steps of one of the carriages in the last train up to town. When the train went on the young man, who was wishing a friend good bye, attempted to alight on the platform when he missed his footing and fell under the carriages. The poor fellow was picked up in a shockingly mutilated state, and survived the extensive injuries he received but a very short time. Mr. Carter, the coroner, and the profes sional gentlemen who had been attending the inquest at Erith, were in the train. SINGULAR SUICIDE.—At Verviers, in Belgium, a strange suicide was committed a few nights back. A young man of some properly, named Reuter, on returning home opened with a razor the veins in his arms. The blood which flowed after a while trickled through the floor, a boarded one, into the room beneath, which was occupied by his mother. She asked what was the matter, and he answered that he had only spilt some water. A little time after she heard a strange noise, and went into his room. He was in the agony of death, and though she immediately procured medical assistance for him, he soon after expired. The only reason that can be given for his suicide is that he had be come almost idiotic from drinkingto excess. DUELLING IN AUSTRIA.—The following deplorable affair occurred on the 17th inst. at Enns. On the evening of that day young Count Almasy, lieutenant in the Volun teer Hussar Regiment, and who was quartered there, en tered the public room of the much-frequented inn the Black Eagle, where a great number of guests were assembled. All the seats were occupied, and, in his usual lively manner, he asked the waiter for a chair. Before the man could bring it the Count observed a vacant chair close to a lieutenant of the same regiment, whose namo is not mentioned, and he forthwith seized it and pulled it quickly away ; but, as the lieutenant was partly using the chair, its sudden removal caused him to fall upon the ground. The consequence of this wa- an angry discussion between the two officers, an d the lieutenant, who held himself insulted by the uncere monious snatching away of the chair, challenged the young Countan d t the to e c a o un d u t e I re w c i e t i h ved s a b s r u e e s h . d s h p i e s r a f t o e r t h e u vr t i s t h t h took hea pla ce, ed eight hours afterwards. He was buried yesterday at Erms with great solemnity. The po sition of his adversary, who was slightly wounded, cannot be considered very enviable. The parents of the slain man were forthwith informed of their son's fate by telegraph.—Lienzer Abendbote. SEAMEN AND STORM WARNINGS. —Now that the winter months are approaching, the storm signals which are sent down by the Marine Department of the Board of Trade, through Rear-Admiral Fitzroy, when bad weather is threatening, are attracting a good deal of attention among seafaring people in the north of England. On Saturday the drum was hoisted at Shields harbour, denoting that dangerous winds might be expected from nearly opposite quarters successively. On Monday the drum was again hoisted, denoting the same source of danger, and on Tues day, at 4 15 p.m., a telegram was received from Admiral Fitzroy, " Hoist drum, and cone below, point down," in dicating dangerous winds from the south. The result of all this, if acted upon, would have been that the vessels ready for sea would have kept in harbour. But as on Sunday the weather was mild and the sea smooth, and as on Monday and Tuesday it was blowing an "off-shore" wind, vessels ready proceeded on their voyages. On Monday morning, between 2 o'clock and daybreak, a fearful gale, accompanied with heavy rain, raged in the North Sea, but as it blew off shore, vessels off the Durham and Yorkshire coasts escaped. The wind having got round to N.E., a fleet of vessels over due were arriving in the Tyne and other north-east ports from the Baltic and North of Europe on Tuesday and Wed nesday. ,UR S. '1 ELVERTON AND HER HUSBAIVD. In her new book, the Hon. Mrs. Yclverton is sup posed to t e ll h er owo story, and the work might in tact have been written by any one familiar with the trial, which was a nine day's wonder. The author has taken care not to deviate in the slightest par ticular fr om h er ev id ence. T he meet i ng i n Scot land, the S co t c h marr i age, the a d ventures i n Ireland, the Irish marriage, the honeymoon, the voyage to France, and the observation's are faith fully related. Capt. Cyril Etherington tries to in du in duce fas c i nating and romantic Thierna to marry him in the Crimea without witnesses. As this is the most novel part of the story, we will give it at letigth "In one of our long rides the following conver sation occurred Do you see t h at ? ' said Ether ington, pointing with his whip to a building at some di stance . Ido not,' replied Thi erna ; it looks like a church.' Do you think we could take a shoat cut by it, and meet the others dow n i n the valley ?' he asked, looking her intently in th e face.' Pos sibly,' she returned ; ' but why do yo u as k ? you mean more than that. I do,' ho replied, riding near and appropriating the reins and her little hand at the same time; 'this state of things is an utter impossibility. I was insane to think I could give you up, for - no sooner were you out of sight than my resolve gave way, and from that moment I have never contemplated losing you." I will wait,' she said, sofrly, raising her devoted loving eyes to his; I will wait any length of time. "No, we will not put each other to that test. I cannot do without you now, and it would be no consolation to me to be told I should possess you 10 or 15 years hence, putting the uncertainty out of the question. Let us make certain of the present, and put the future be yond a doubt,' he added, watching her colour come and go. We should find half a dozen priests saying their breviary at that church, who for 100 or 200 piastres would make you mine before that cloud which overhangs us turns to rain." Bat, Cyril, they are Greeks,' said Thierna, in astonishment. Greek or Roman, they can make our two fates one, and my uncle may rub his classics before he finds out how the knot is tied.' But how would you pre vent it coming to his knowledge ?' asked she ; some one would be sure to tell him.' If no one knew,' be replied cautiously, no one could tell ;no one but the padre must know our secret." No one,' said Thierna, a little alarmed; would that be a right thing to do ? I would rather trust my friends, from whom I never had any secrets, and I s h ou ld not like to deceive them in any respect. If that is what you are takieg me to church for, pray let us return.' Cyril was silent, and looked disappointed ; still he did not loosen her rein or attempt to turn the horses. At length he said, leisurely, You do not love me, Thierna--not love me as I thought you did, with a pure devoted affection. You will not make the smallest sacrifice of the ponaps and vani ties of the world in order to make me a better and a happier man. Your presence near me is like the shadow of an angel's wing, wafting every unhal lowed thought to a distance, and breathing an atmo sphere of peace. None but you have ever under stood me. Hard lessons, taught by a heartless world, have made me bad and reckless. lam always pre pared to battle my way by ruse or force, and you are the only softening influence I have known. It was a blessed thing I could not leave you, or I should have plunged headlong into evil.' Pray don't say so,' cried Thierna, her eyes filling with tears. Yet to this,' continued he, you would ex pose me for the sake of a little worldly display—for a few bridesmaids sewed up in pink and blue, a few postilions with white favours and coachmen with large bouquets in their button-holes, stupid uncles talking nonsense ever champagne and a pyramidal wedding cake; ladies weeping polite tears into lice handkerchiefs.' Cyril, Cyril Tnierna burst in, you quite misunderstood me. I should really shrink from all that fuss; it is the secrecy I object to—not the manner.' Does the secrecy make the tie less sacred in the sight of God or ourselves ? If you had parents it would be quite different ; but as we stand are we not both at liberty to bind ourselves; do we injure any one, or offend the laws of God, by so doing ; and when the publishing of the act, right in itself, would injure me, then say by what principle of right you are bound to proclaim it ?" Indeed, I cannot argue the point with you, but I wish you would let me con suit some one.' No,' said Etherington, decisively ; you shall not breathe a word to any one of what has taken place to-day. Consult your own heart and good sense, then trust to my honour and knowledge of what is right and wrong. Believe me, Thierna, we must depend upon and be guided by each other ; a third party must never intervene, or our marriage will not be what I anticipate with so much ardour, one of unalloyed trust, sympathy, and complete union. Come, dearest," he said, springing from his horse at the church door, and looking up at her with his most caressing smile, his teeth doing their work of witchery. Another moment, and she would have been in his arms, but a galloping horse and his rider loomed in the distance. ' Look, Cyril,' she ex• claimed, who is that ?' They both gazed earnestly for a moment. Captain Tudor,' cried Thierna, with a gleeful laugh. Etherington sprang to his horse, his mouth tightly compressed. He gave a savage lash to the lady's palfrey, who sprang off at full speed. You see it was not to be,' she said, as they galloped side by side. It shall be said he fiercely ; and something like an imprecation hissed through his teeth, in spite of his usual philosphy and the shadowtpg presence of the angel's wings." THE RUGBY AFFAIR. A Rugby correspondent of the _Leeds Mercury writes :—" Mrs. Hill, the baby, and the nurse maid, have been residing in Rugby since Saturday last. Mrs. Hill possesses sufficient personal attrac tion to justify belief in the report that she has led captive many suitors. It is a fact that she was run away with when at boarding-school, and that sue was brought back by a well known person, who, in his endeavours to rescue the lady from her gallant and enterprising admirer, received a lasting memento on the most prominent feature of his countenance. "The wealth of the lady was greatly exaggerated in the first accounts of the case. Lady Burdett, the mother of Mrs. Hill, resides at Brussels upon an income of £2,000 per annum, terminable with her life. Her estate is :managed and the rents of her property collected, by Mr. Maltby, the vice consul of Brussels, and this accounts, in a great measure, for the intimate knowledge which Mr. Maltby appears to have of Mrs. Hill's private affairs. Mrs. Hill derives considerable pecuniary advantages from the settlements made upon her by the prisoner, and that in some measure, apart from the promptings of maternal instinct, accounts for the anxiety which has been manifested to have the child identified. Mr. Hill entered a cause some months ago in the Divorce Court, and should the issue be that he obtained a judical separation from his wife, the two questions of the paternity and identity of the child would occupy the attention of the lawyers. It is stated that there are cir cumstances which cannot be shown until the case comes before the Divorce Court. That there is some explanation in respect to this long-lost child which has not yet come before the public, seems clear from the fact that the brother of Mrs. Hill—Lieut.-Colonel Burdett—offered himself as bail for the prisoner. The stories which have been told of Mr. Hill having come to England from Brus sels, disguised and in secret, have their origin in the prolific imagination of one of the keenest penny a-liners' of the metropolitan press. During the L w o h n o d le un o , f a t u h d e u w n es i k sg p u r i ee se e d d . in li g i h s i e s bj a e r e r r es i t n hdeisgwuaissini g n. himself with the black whiskers and moustache was not histo prevent friends arrest an d h a eitherhimself for s ay debtwwith a fa or perjury; r more but honourable and praiseworthy object, that of seeing his wife without her knowing him, in consequence of the determined and repeated refusals on her part to allow him to speak to her. The Eastern exchange continues with a very satis factory tendency. At Calcutta the rate is without material alteration, but both at Canton and Shanghai there has been a further favourable movement of about one per cent., the respective quotations being 4s. 54. and 6s. 2d. A deplorable affair has occurred in the Rue du . Faubourg Saint-Antoine, A 'harried couple carrying on the trade of butchers at No. 164 in that street had frequent quarrels, owing to the man for some reason having for bidden his wife to visit her family, and to her disregarding his prohibition. On Monday evening the wife taking ad vantage of the man's absence, went to see her sister. After a while, he arrived, and bitterly reproached his wife for disobeying his orders; but by the intervention of his siste in-law and her husband, who were present, h e became' calm, and promised to live on better terms with his wife. As, however, the woman feared that the man would commit her some act of violence, she begged her sister to accompany her home, and pass the night in her room, th d e e sh tw o o rt w ly om a no objection.
