On the 12th October, witness and both the prisoners went to the office of a solicitor at Woolwich, and showed him a paper which was supposed to be a will made by the deceased. The solicitor looked at it, and said it would not do, as it was incorrectly drawn up, and he gave them a form to be filled up, marking the places where the signatures of the wit. nesses and the mark of the testator were to be placed. On their return home with this paper, they went into the tap-room of a public-house, where they drank two half-pints of rum, and the prisoner, Mary Chapman, said that as the will bad to get back that night, they might as well do it at once, and he Higgins put ',their names and addresses to the paper. When they had signed it, Mrs. Chapman said they might as well put the old man's mark to it, and Higgins stooped down to the table and was in the attitude of writing, but he did not see him put a mark to the paper. When this had been done they all three went to the garret where the deceased was lying in bed, quite speechless, and appa rently insensible. A pen was put into his hand, and Mrs. Chapman laid hold of his wrist arid guided it, and she then said, " There now he has made his mark, and you will tell no lie about it." The deceased at this time did not appear to know anything of what was going on, and the paper was never read to him. lie was unable to speak, and on the following morning he died. The prisoner, Mary Chapman, promised to give him a new w rickar , ‘- suit of clothes and three sovereigns wh en th e a ff a i r was settled, but she did not do so, and upon a daughter of Lichfield the deceased coming forward to claim hi s p ro p er t y be W,stern Meeting Rochester and Chatham.. 7 told all that had happened. 12 Cross-examined—Witness was present wh en th e first Doncaster paper was executed or pretended to be execut e d. The Pontefract 18 deceased was in the same state, and witness held him OCT( up in bed by one hand, and Mrs. Chapman laid acros Chester Autumn 3 the bed behind him to support him. Higgins held the Yorkshire Union Hunt 5 paper to him, and put a pen in his hand and a pair of Wrexham 5 spectacles on his nose. The old man did not seem to Newmarket S 0 9 know at all what he was about. He held the pen in NOVE. his fist lik e a st i c k , an d d roppe d it down u p on th e paper Epsom Autumn 2 and blott e d it . He d i d not ma k e an y mar k, an d seemed not to know how to make one. He appeared to be quite faint, and Higgins took the pen and paper from I him. They all signed their names to this paper, as they had done to the other. After the deceased died, his clothes were searched, and a half-sovereign and some A again attended to. If the public could see how many millions sterling have been sacrificed during the present year from the absence of such returns, they would regard any neglect of the question on the part of the Govern ment as one of the most culpable errors that could be committed, and it is to awaken the Ministers to a sense of this responsibility that the mercantile classes feel now compelled to move. The capitalist is aware that, through his inability to get materials for a conclusion, he was prevented in the early part of the season from investing his money in grain wherever he could de spatch agents to procure it, while his French rival, in the possession of carefully collected statements, was able to act promptly even in our own markets ; the agri culturist finds to his mortification that he sold much of his produce at less than two-thirds of its subse quent value ; the shipowner was ignorant where. his vessels would be wanted, and sent them out of reach when they might have made fortunes at Odessa or New York ; and the manufacturer, whose whole success often depends upon whether the value of money will be 1 per cent. more or less, has not only been without the means of anticipating the efflux of bullion, but is actually at this moment in the dark as to whether we have attained and paid for a sufficient supply to render much further pres. sure unlikely, or whether our stocks are still so far below what will be requisite as to keep up a constant outflow of specie. In the whole range of matters that bear upon our financial and commercial welfare there is scarcely in terest, and that assumes such proportions of general and when the fact is recognised that France, the United States. and other countries, where the facilities are far less than here, have long since shown how simply and inexpensively the end may be attained, there are few more surprising or discreditable circumsta nces t h an it should now remain for the commercial community to remonstrate and memorialise in order that it should no longer be neglected.

DEMAND FOR SE AMEN IN THE WEST.—Several ren dezvous for the entering of seamen and eligible landsmen for the Royal Navy have been opened at the various ports of South Wales, and in several instances with good success. At Tenby twenty fine young fellows have been enrolled, and there is every prospect of more being ob tained, a s th e near approach of war, and the hope of prize money, seem to he inducements which our brave seafaring population cannot resist. In addition to the unusual pressure for men for the Royal Navy, the supply of seamen for the mercantile marine is by no means equal to the demand, in consequence of the large number of vessels which have been despatched for Australia. This is the case at all the ports of the Bristol Channel, so much so that outward bound vessels have been de tained waiting for men ; and at the Welsh ports, on the other side, seamen are very scarce. INTERESTING DISCOVERY.— In an- ancient chest long standing in a neglected corner of an obscure tower in Lambeth Palace, we understand that certain historical papers have just been found. No details as to the par. ticular contents of the documents now unearthed have yet reached us ; but we hear it said that they are valuable of their kind. They are supposed to refer chiefly—if not exclusively—to the Cromwell period. We have even heard that some of them bear the signature of the Protector.—A thenaum. Decrease in 1851.. £459 11 8 REPRESENTATION OP THE SOUTHERN DIVISION OF DEVON.—A vacancy has occurred in the representation of the southern division of this country, by the death on Friday last of Sir Ralph Lopes. A requisition is now in the course of signature to Sir Massey Lopes, his son, inviting him to allow himself to be put in nomina tion. The electors have also been cautioned not to pledge themselves to any other candidate until Sir Massey's answer has been received. Sir Stafford North cote, and L. Palk, Esq., of Haldon-house, have both been mentioned as likely to be brought forward to fill the vacancy. Neither of these gentlemen have as yet held senatorial honours. Sir Stafford was invitad to offer himself for this city at the last general election, but declined on the score of ill-health ; the latter gen tleman was formerly president of the Devon and Exeter Protection Society, and a Protectionist. Sir Ralph represented the division for two Parliament s , an d was elrcted, together with Sir J. Y. Buller, each time un opposed. The last time the county was contested was in 1837, when Sir J. Y. Buller was returned at the head of the poll, and Mr. Montague Parker obtained a ma jority of 927 over Mr. Bulteel, the Liberal candidate. 12,202 15 9 2166,297 6 7 ASSETS. VALUATION, SEPT. 30, 1853.

THE DESCENDANTS OB FLORA MACDONALD.—WO learn with much satisfaction that her Majesty the Queen has been pleased to grant the sum of 501. as a gift to Miss Mackay, the great granddaughter, and only des cendant of that relationship now alive, of the famous Flora Macdonald. The recipient is unable to do any thing to provide for herself, and, through the kind ser vices of the Premier, Lord Aberdeen, this grant has been obtained. There are descendants of Flora by a sister of the recipient of this gift, but the sister died about a year ago.— Glasgow Examiner.
