By the DUCHESS OT ABRANTEfi. PROSPECTUS. BIOGRAGPHY has become one of the prevailing literary attractions of the present age ; but its pages are almost exclusively devoted to men, whilst women seem doomed by the unjust silence of biographers to be forgotten: and yet what memorable examples of genius and virtue have not the gentler sex shown in all countries and in every gene• ration ! The Duchess of Abrantes, well known by her historical memoirs. and Count Strarzewie, author of a distinguished biographical work, have long been engaged in preparing to set forth the claims of women to celebrity. These writers intend to devote their future labours to the biography of the celebrated women of all ages, and to op-n for them a Pantheon where they shall again live in their genius, their virtue, their talents, their services, and even their crimes, whenever the latter, by a mixture of greatness and of env gy, rise above the common standard, and forum part of an extraordinary life worthy of being placed under the eyes of generations to come. The collection here announced will present not only the moral characters of the most distinguished females, but will likewise give their portraits, which will be equally well treated with the historical part. Nearly all the public and private galleries of Europe will he open to the able artists selected to illustrate the present publication ; and no portrait will be given to the public without proof of its authenticity. The Editors, it is expected, will be enabled to complete the work in Forty or Fifty Numbers ; and, if found ex pedient, their publication will be accelerated so that the whole may be issued within a shorter period of time.

Mr. STUKELEY called the attention of the Court to the reports which had appeared during the last few days in the public prints, of what had occurred at the Old Bailey Sessions, and from which it ap peared that the Middlesex Magistrates had been, in a most unceremonious manner, accused of having been guilty of a series of gross inaccuracies. The blunders alleged to have taken place had occurred in the office of the Clerk of Indictments. Now, _ _ _ he had always thought the Clerk of Indictments to be an officer with whose appointment, or whose mode of discharging his duties, the Chairman and the Magistrates generally had nothing to do. It was with astonishment, therefore, lie read the at tacks made upon the Middlesex Magistracy, and lie would take the present opportunity of inquiring of the Court with whom the appointment of Clerk of Indictments rested, and whether any means could be adopted for insuring the more efficient discharge of the duties of his office ? The CHAIRMAN said, with respect to the first question, his answer was, that the appointment wa4 one with which neither the Magistrates nor the Chairman of the Sessions had any thing to do. It was in the gift of the Clerk of the Peace, who, as they well knew, derived his office from the Lord Lieutenant of the county. The present Clerk of the Peace (Mr. Selby) was a gentleman far advanced in years, and was, he regretted to say, at the present moment so very unwell that he feared it would be impracticable to make any representations to him with a chance of a beneficial result ; index-11 he learnt that it was not probable that he would ever recover so far as to he able to attend to any matter of public business. The manlier in which the Middlesex Ma gistrates had been attacked in another place was such that they owed it to themselves not to pass the attacks by, and he considered they would not be doing their duty if they did not appoint a Committee of Inquiry with instrucions to seek an interview with the Secretary of State and vindicate the Court from the charges so wantonly cast upon it. So far from the Grand Jury having been employed in find ing bills for trial at the Middlesex Sessions, to the delay of those which had to go before the Judges at the Old Bailey, he had actually adjourned the Mid dlesex Petit Jury for one entire day, in order that the Grand Jury might devote themselves exclusively to the Old Bailey business. After the manner in which the Middlesex Magistrates had been bearded and insulted by the Judges of another Court he thought it highly necessary that they should make a proper representation on the subject to his Ma j est y 's Ministers. It was really high time for them to pro tect themselves. These attacks had been allowed to go much too far. Several magistrates declared themselves unani mously of opinion that the observations made by different members of the bar at the Old Bailey Ses sions were highly improper and offensive. It was agreed that a Special Committee should be appointed to report to the Court on the subject of what had been asserted at the Old Bailey, and that a suitable representation and explanation should be made to Lora Melbourne. The following gentlemen were named on the Committee :—Sir W. Curtis, Sir C. Forbes, Sir J. Williams, Mr. John King, Colonel Clithero, Capta . n Acklom, Mr. Haslope, Mr. Halsewell, Dr. Robert. son, Sir J. Scott Lillie, arid Mr. Sergeant Andrews; three to be a quorum. A variety of other business of minor impottance was afterwards disposed of. The Court did not rise till a late hour in the afternoon. SUICIDE.—A young female, named Sarah Lee, residing with her father and sister, at No. 3, Watts's place, Regent-street, Horseferry-road, terminated her ex • istence on Tuesday evening, by inflicting an extensive and horrible wound in her throat with a razor. In an early part of the evening she accompanied her sister to Roches. ter-row, and on her sister's entering the house of a friend, she observed that she would wait outside until her return. On her sister, however, leaving the house, she missed the deceased, when she hurried home, and found her lying by the door of her own residence, with her throat horribly mangled with a new razor, which was found near her, but life still remained. The assistant to a surgeon was prompt in his attendance, who found the wound of such a nature as to render it impossible for her to survive, and she died in a few minutes after. The deceased lost her mother about seven months ago, who was greatly attached to her, and this had an effect upon her mind, as at times o subject her to fits of melancholy of a truly distressing na ture. For hours she has been olicerved to walk alone in the garden, in a desponding state. An inquest was held last night before Mr. Higgs, and the Jury returned a ver dict of " Temporary Derangement." THE REIGN OF TERROR.--A few days previous to do T tothe or f i a g l n l m o ft f i, Robespierre, and her granddaughter, rre, Madame d'Ozanne, age Marquess a lovely young worn in of 22, perished in the same in ;s nacre. The personal beauty of the latter, which was much celebrated in the neighbourhood, had interested one of the brigands of the Orange in her fate, who promised to exert his influence with the Council of Five to s the the life of the grandmother on condition of receiving the hand of M i demoiselle d'Oz none. Tile poor girl overcame her horror of reluctance for the sake of her aced relative, and promised to marry this man on condition of his success on i the promised application. The life, however, of so for midable a conspirator as a superannuated and dying woman, was too great a favour to be granted even to a friend, and the only boon which he could obtain, was the promise of Mademoiselle d'Ozanne's life, in consideration of her becoming his wife. " Ell bien I it put mourir ensemble," was her answer, without a moment's hesita tion, and next day, accordingly, both the relatives perished ou the same scaffold. Dr. LUSIIINGTON gave the health of their distin guished guest Captain Ross, and of his brave com panions in his late expedition. The toast was drunk with loud applause. Captain Ross, in returning thanks, said, such an honour, coupled with those marks of approval which he had already recived from his countryman since his arrival, were more than a reward for whatever he had endured during his long absence. He had undertaken the expedition for the promotion of geographical science, and for the glory of his coun try. That he had not succeeded to his wish was not his fault, but he hoped his voyage would riot be found to be without some useful results. Advert ing to the charity which was the object of their meeting on this occas'on, the Gallant Officer ob served, that it should have the best support which his humble exertions could give. He felt it some thing even more than a duty, for he could not forget that at his outset in life he was an orphan, with the world before him through which to struggle.--.

DREADFUL SUICIDE.—On Tuesday night an inquest was held at the Bal, Leicester-street, L-2icest , t, square, on the body of Mr. Benj itnin King, aged 32, an extensive lace-dealer, at 7, Sydney's-alley. Th e body of . . the deceased was prostrate on the bed, with his kness somewhat elevated, and his throat nearly cut through the floor was covered with blood. The deceased bad lat ly been much affected in his mind, the consequence of a severe illness he had a few months ago. Mr. Payne a surgeon, of St. Martin's-lane, stated that he rave direc tions that the deceased should be constantly watched. On calling at the house on Tuesday morning Miss King exclaimed to him. " Oh, Sir, he has done the deed." Oet Mr. Payne going up stairs be found the deceased in the ; soeition already described. He hail no doubt cut his throat before the looking glass, and then, by a desperate and extraordinary effort, flung himself upon the bed.._._ Several witnesses gave evidence of the deceased's state of mind. The deceased was asked on one occasion if he ever read; to which he replied—" Oh no, dear Sir, I have no mind. My mind has been gradually going away; I cannot account for it." Verdict—lasanity. MYSTERIOUS CASE. —Yesterday an inquest was held before Mr. Baker, at the Cnerry Tree, Bromley, Middlesex, on the body of Robert Pitcher, who has for many year; held a situation in the London Dock. The deceased was a married man, but had separated from his wife, and he had been lately secretly paying attention to Frances Dryden, a middle aged woman a nd a wid ow , i n rhea employ of Mr. Adams, Harlow-house, Mile End. On Sund iy evenins she was returning home with the deceased from her sister's, along the banks of the River Lea, when they came to a high stile, where the bank had a sleeping descent of 15 feet. After the deceased had assisted Mrs. Dryden over the stile, she stated that he suddenly let go her hand, and fell backwards down into the river. He rose, and exclaimed, " it's all over with me." He then sunk, and she saw hint no more. She screamed loudly, but no assistance came for ten minutes. When the drags were procured the deceased was taken from the water, but quite dead. The witness said she bad not quarrelled with the deceased, and that they did not remain in conversation at the stile. 'Fiery were both quite sober. A colour maker, named Chapman, who lives near the river, :Owed that be saw the deceased and Mrs. Dryden near the stile, and they were talking very louil!y. About 20 minutes after he left them he heard a violent screaming, and on running to the spot he found Mrs. Dryden by herself. She was much confused, and she exclaimed, " He's gone, he's gone," at the same time pointing to the water. He asked if her husband had gone, and she replied, " Oh, no, it is some one more dear to ms." He then went and procured the drags. The Jury examined several witnesses, but could not obtain any further facts than the preceding ; FIRE m I A .
