OLD BAILEY, Oct 28. Patrick .31Tabe stood charged with having forged the acceptance of William Quin to a bill of ex change for 50/. The prisoner pleaded 4 . Not Guilty." Edward Clifford, of John-street, Adelphi, de posed that the prisoner applied to him to get the bill discounted. lie received from the prisoner Hi. fur his trouble in malting the inquiries, the re sult of which was, that William Quin had not ac cepted the bill, nor bud he given authority to any other person to do so. Cross-examined by Mr. C. Ptttt.t.ws-1 1oty many prisons have you been confined in ? Witness-1 submit that I am not bound to answer that question. Mr. C. Pnit.ilys—llow long have you been in Newgate ? Witness--I conceive that has no thing to do with the present question. Mr. C. PHILLIPS repeated these questions un der various forMs, to which the prisoner declined giving any satisfactory answer. William Q in wax next examined, and stated that he could not write ; that he net the prisoner at a public-house, and that the prisoner inquired for pun and ink, but that he, gave him no authority to mite his name. Mr. Baron GARRow recapitulated the evidence, and the 'Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. Richare Phillips; a grocer, who lately carried on business in Piekett-pluer, Strand, was indicted-for uttering an unstamped receipt for money, with in tent to cheat and defraud Messrs. Houghton, Flin. tan, and Co., provision -merchants, Berwick -street, Soho-square. The circumstances of this case have been re ported so lately, t h at a brief abstract of the evidence is all that is necessary. The prisoner purchased a quantity of hams from the prosecutors, and ordered a portion of them, amounting to .5/. Gs. 6d., to be sent to, his house, on the express understanding, howeVer, that they should be paid for on delivery. When the parcel of hams were delivered at the pri soner's residence, the prisoner told the porter that he was to give him a receipt for 6s. 6d. The porter, supposing that the 5/. had been paid to his master, gave a receipt for the balance. In this receipt it was alleged that the figure of 5, With an X over it, had been introduced by the prisoner after the porter had signed it, so that the receipt appeared 0 be for the whole amount claimed. The evidence of the porter distinctly proved that no other figures but the 6s, 6d. were in the body of the receipt. when he signed it. The prisoner in his defence declared that he was innocent of the charge, and called his shop-boy to prove that the whole of the receipt as it now ap peared was written by the porter. Mr. Hughes, an attorney, was then called by Mr. C. l'unlArs, to give the prisoner a character. The witness deposed that he had been professionally engaged by him, but all he could say was that he (the prisoner) had not cheated him in any way. Mr. Justice Patric---lie would indeed have been a clever fellow if he could cheat an attorney. Several persons gave the prisoner(' good character. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. Justice PARK observed that the offence of the prisoner was considerably aggravated by calling his boy tor Ward to help him out by committing per jury. Owing to the late merciful alteration in the law relating to forgery, the prisoner's, life would not he affected by the verdict, but it would be a matter of future consideration whether the law, as it now stood, ought not to be carried into full effect. EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW - UNION RAIL " WAY BY CUMBERLAND. FROM the Advertisements which have lately appeared recommendatory of a NEW LINE of RAILWAY between EDINBURGH and GLASGOW, suggested by Mr. Grainger, Civil Engineer, the public may be led to suppose that the North, or Level Line of Railway, which it was some time ago resolved to form from the Garnkirk and Glasgow Railway, eastwards, by Cumberland, to the Union Canal, and the plan of con verting the latter into a ,Railway, and making a branch to Leith, so as to form a complete and direct Railroad,, twern the Eastern and West.' n Capitals, is superseded or abandoned : it is therefore necessary,to state that such is not the case; the scheme bat_ been long and carefully considered, and the line possesses so many peculiar advan tages that no doubt retneine as to its superiority to any other that can be proposed. This track was first brought before the public in the year 1789, and after a minute survey of the whole country between Edinburgh and Glasgow, and plans of the , whole possible lines of communication had been made, it was recommended as decidedly and incomparably the best, both by that accurate Surveyor, Mr. Ainslie, and by Mr. Rennie, the celebrated Engineer. Since thst,airne it has been examined and surveyed again and again, and re peatedly declared to be unquestionably the only eligible lint for an improved opening for all the purposes of com merce and trade. Accordingly the eastern part of it was chosen fur the Union Canal; and more recently the Gran kirk And Glasgow Railway has been made along eight miles of its western termination. Fifteen miles of road way are thus only left to he acquired and formed ; and the pioposed improvement and conversion of the Union Canal into a Railway, a simple expedient, and new exemplified in some of the Canals in England, has only, to be effected, to complete a continuous and level Railway between Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Leith. This will be accom plished at less than one-half or even the estimated expense of forming any other Railway of the kind, and also in less titan half the time. .Wlst is of more consequence, the road will not only be the most practicable and cheapest, but it will bo the best, being level from end to end,._. whereas the others that are proposed, being to cross a part of the country rising to a height of above eight hundred feet, must of necessity consist of a series of ascents and descents, or tunnels, or both, and these are more prejudicial to a Railway than to a common road. It is evident also that from the elevation of the south lines they could not Le approached with facility by the mineral produce of the districts they traverse, or, if tunnelled, they would be still less accessible, except at either end ; while, on the other hand, the north, or level line, forms the trough of the whole country lying between Glasgow and Edinburgh, into which commodities of every kind could he delivered or receiver! at any point, by the roads already existing, l and by inclined planes, or others that may be made. The difference of distance against the North or Level Line is alleged to be from two to three miles; but by the' alterations to be made on the course of the Canal in form ing it into a Railway, this difference will be greatly di minished, if not 'altogether removed ; and although it existed, the rate of travelling by steam. power is so rapid, that two or three minutes would be all the loss of time. This is surely not worth consideration, especially when it is recollected that a level road is obtained, and that a much greater loss of time, or a waste•of horse or steam-power, would ensue in ascending the declivities on the high lines of road. • KING and BUCHANAN, Glasgow, Oct. 23, 1830.

THE BROKtN HEART. (From Blackwood's Magazine.) There %vas ti gay party assembled one evening / in the memorable intintli et June, 1815, at a house in the remote western subildirt of London. Throngs of handsome and well•dressed vVdtriett —a large retinue of the leading men about town —the dazzling of chandeliers blazing like three suns overhead—the charms of music and dancing —together _with that tone of excitement then pervading society at large, owing to our miccess , lid continental campaigns, which maddened Eng land into almost daily annunciations of victory —all these circumstances, I say, combined to supply spirit to every party. In fact, England, WitS almost turned upside dawn with uniVemal [king ! Mrs. —, the lady whose party I have just been mentioning, was in I ."l.thyy at the eclat with which the whole was going eff i • ward charmed with the buoyant animation with which all seemed inclined to contribute their quota to the evening's amusement. A young lady of sonic personal attractions, most amiable manners and great accomplishments—particularly musical —had been repeatedly solicited to sit down to the piano, for the purpose of favouring the corn • pany with the favourite Scottish air, " The Banks of Allan Water. - For a long time, how ever, she stedfastly resisted their importunities, on the plea of low spirits. There was evidently an air of deep pensiveness, if not melancholy, about her, which ought to have corroborated the truth of the plea she urged. She did not seem to gather • excitement with the rest ; and. rather endured, than shared, the gaieties. of the evening. Of course, the young folks around her of her own sex whispered their suspicions that she was in love ; and, in point of fact, it was well known by several present, that Miss —• was engaged to a young officer who had earned considerable distinction in the Peninsular campaign, and to whom she was to be united on his return from the Continent. It need not therefore be won dered at, that a thought of the various casualties to which a soldier's life is exposed—especially a bold and brave young soldier, such as her in• tended had proved himself—and the possibility, if not probability, that he might, alas ! never " Return to claim ttk bluThing bride," —but beleft behind among the glorious throng of the fallen—sufficed to overcast her mind with gloomy anxieties and apprehensions. It. was, indeed, owing solely to the affectionate impor tunities of her relatives, that she was prevailed on to be seen in society at all. Had her own inclinations been consulted she would have sought solitude, where she might, with i weeping and trembling, commend her hopes to the , hands of Him " who seeth in secret," and " whose are the issues" of battle. As, however, Miss rich contralto voice, and skilful powers of accompaniment, were much talked of, the company would listen to no excuses or apologies ; so the poor girl was absolutely baited into sit ting down to the piano, when she ran over a few melancholy chords with an air of reluctance and displacency. liar sympathies were soon excited by the fine tones—the tumultuous me lody—of the keys she touched—and she struck into the soft and soothing symphony of " The Banks of Allan Water." The breathless silence of the bystanders—for nearly all the company was thronged Around—was at length broken by her voice, stealing, " like faint blue gushing streams," on the delighted ears of her auditors, as she eminence(' singing that exquisite little ballad, with the most touching pathos and sitn plicity..: She had just commenced the verse, Fur hid bride a soldier sought her, And a winning tongue had he! • when to the surprise of every one around her, she suddenly ceased playing and singing, without removing ,her hands from the instrument and gazed steadfastly forward with a vacant air, while the colour faded from her cheeks, and left them pale as the lily. She continued thus for- some moments, to the alarm and astonishment of the company-•-motionless, and apparently uncon scious of any one's presence. Her elder sister, much agitated, stepped towards her, placed her hand on her shoulder, endeavoured gently to rouse her, and said hurriedly,'" Anne, Anne I What now is the matter ?"—Miss made no answer ; but a few moments alter, without moving her eyes, suddenly burst into a piercing shriek ! Consternation seized all present. " Sister—sister 1--. Dear Anne, are you ill ?" again enquired her trembling sister, endeavour. ing to rouse her, but in Vain; Miss did ' not seem either to see or hear her. Her eyes still gazed fixedly forward; till they seemed gra dually to expand, as it wire,' with•an expression of glassy horror. • All present seemed utterly confounded, and afraid to interfere with her...—. Whispers were heard, " She is a fit— ' run for some water. Good God, how strange — what a piercing shriek," &c. At length Miss lips moved. She began to mutter inaudibly ; , but bye and bye those immediately near her could distinguish the words, " There! there they are with their lanterns—Olt 1 they are ' looking out for the—de.—a,--ti I—They, turn over the that little bill of slain-4ee, see I—they are turning them over, one by one--. There I—there he isl—Oh, horror ! horror I hoirorl—right through the heart 1" and with a long shuddering, she fell senseless into the artns of her. horromtruek 'sheer. Of course all were in coninsion and dismay, not a face present but was blanched with agitation and affright on bearing the extraordinary words She uttered. With true delicacy anti propriety of feeling, all albs° whose carriages had hap pened to have already arrived, instantly took their departure, to prevent their presence ember, rassing or interfering with the family, who were already,sufliciently bewildered. The room was soon thinned of all, except those who were im mediately engaged in rendering their services . to the young jady ; and a servant was instantly des patched with a horse, for me. On my arrival found herinled, (still in the house where the party was given, • which was that of the youag lady's sistmin.law.) She had fallen into a Ne, ,cession of swoons ever twee she had been carried up from the drawing-room, an d was perfectly, senseless when I entered the bed-chamber where she lay. She had not spoken a syllable since uttering the singular words just related ; and her whole frame was cold and rigid—in fact, she seemed to have received some strange shock, w hich had altogether paralysed her. By the use, however, of strong . stimulants, we succeeded at length in restoring her to something like con sciousness, but I think it had been better for her—judging from the event -= never to have woke her again from forgetfulness. Shy opened her eyes under the influence of the searching stimulants we applied, and stared vacantly for an instant on those standing round her bedside.-- Her countenance, of an ashy hue, was damp with perspiration, and she lay perfectly motionless,,ex- - eept when her frame undulated with long deep drawn sighs. " Oh,. wretched, wretched, wretched girl !" she murmured at length—" why hare 1 lived till now ? Why did you not suffer me to expire ? Ile called me to join him-1 was going—and you will nut let me—but I must go—yes, yes." " Anne—dearest I Why do you talk so ? Charles is not gone—he will soon return—he will indeed"—sobbed her sister. '' Oh, never, never ! You could not s©e what 1 saw, Jane,"—she shutidered—" Oh, it was frightful! Ilow they tumbled: about the heaps of the dead 1:---how they stripped—oh, horror, horror !" " My dear Miss —, you are dreaming— raving;—lndeed you are," said 1, holding her hand in mine—" Come, come, you must not give way to such gloomy, such nervous fancies— you must not indeed. You are frightening your friends to no purpose?' " What do you mean ?" she replied, tooling me suddenly full in the face. " 1 tell you it is true ! Ah me, Charles is dead--I know sat, him. Shut right through the heart.- They welt stripping him, when —" And heaving three or four short convulsive sobs, she again swooned. Airm,. --, the lady of the house (the sister.in-law of Miss ---, as I ' think fhave mentioned), could endure the dis tressing scene no longer, and was carried out of the room, fainting, in the arms of her husband. With great difficulty we succeeded in restoring Miss once more to consciousness ; but the frequency and duration of her relapses began se riously to alarm me. The spirit, being so often brought to the ,briek, might at last s► ddenly flit off into eternity, without any one's being aware • •of it. I, of course, (lid all that my professional knowledge and experience suggested ; and, after expressing my readiness to remain all night in the house, in the event of any sudden alteration in Miss for the worse, 1 took my dei;er tures promising to call very early in the morn Mg. Before leaving Mr. -.--- had acquainted me with all the particulars above related ; and, as I rode home, I could not help feeling thu liveliest curiosity, mingled with the most intense sympathy for the unfortunate sufferer, to see whether the corroborating event would stamp the present as one of those extraordinary occurrences which occasionally " come o'er us like a summer cloud," astonishing every one. '1 he next morning, about nine o'clock, I was , again at Miss bedsiie. She was nearly in the same state as that in which I had left her the preceding evening—only feebler, and a!most continually stupilied. She seemed, as it were, stunned with some severe but invisible stroke. She said scarcely anything, but often uttered a low, moaning; indistinct sound, and whispered at intervals, " Yes—shortly, Charles', shortly—to morrow." There was no rousing her by conver sation ; she noticed no one, and would answer no questions. 1 suggested the propriety of cal ling in additional medical assistance; and in the evening, met two eminent brother plipicians in consultation at her Weide. We came to a conclusion that site was sinking rapidly, anti that, unless some miracle intervened to restore bar energies, she would continue with us but a very little longer. After my brother physiciaes had . left, I returned to the sick chamber, and sat.by Miss —'s bedside for more than an hour. • My feelings were much agitated at witnessing her singular and affecting situation. There was such a sweet and sorrowful expression about her pallid features, deepening, occasionally, into such hopelesstiees of heart-broken anguish, as no one , could contemplate without deep emotion. There was besides, something mysterious and awing— something of what in Scotland is called second. sight—in the circumstances which had occasioned her illness. 'Gone--gone !" she murmured, with closed eyes, while I was sitting and gazing , in,silenee on her, " gone—and in glory ; All I I shall see the ' young conqueror--I shall 1 How he will lova me !

She continued' utterly deaf to 'all that was said in the way of :sympathy or Ve monstrance; and if her lips moved at. all, it was only to utter faintly some such words as, " Oh, let me-let me leave in peace I" • During the two next days she continued drooping rapidly.
