E SUN, LONDON, MON 171 A I VVENitcG, AUGUST 18, 1845. ASSIZE INTELLIGEN CE . NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—Live. pool, Aug 15. CROWN COURT.—(iiet,re 11r Bsr n ROLFE). Thomas Whittle was indicted for a h ghway robbery Ince, in Mackerfield, on the 18th of April last. Mr. Cross conducted the prosecution ; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Wilkins. The prosecutor was a person of the name of Oakes, who is parish clerk at the church of Hindley, and who stated on the day in question he had been at Wigan market, and on starting to go home he missed his way at a place called the Seholes. He met the prisoner, and asked him his way. The prisoner directed him to it, and accompanied him to a public-house kept by a per son of the name of Greenwood, where they hal some ale, and the prosecutor produced a sovereign. They left the house together, and, as the prosecutor alleged, after they had got a few yards from the door, the prisoner knocked him down, robbed him, and ran away. The prosecutor did not immediately go back to Greenwood's, but went on his way home. The next morning he came again to IVigian, gave information to the police, and as certained at Greenwood's who the person was who had been in his company the night before. On cross-exami nation he admitted he had had a good deal to think, but considerable difficulty was experienced in fixing the Irecise stage among the many degrees of intoxication at which he had arrived. He at last admitted that he was " market merry." Mr. WILKINS addressed the jury for the defence, contending that the whole history of the case was, that the proiecu:or, though he as parish clerk W4S miturally unwillirg to admit it, had got drunk, and had probab'y been robbed by some one ; and on ascertaining who had been with him the night before at the public-house had fixed on that party, not really having any very distinct recollection of •.vhen or where he had been lightened of his property. Verdict, Not Guilty. Jaoec Hunter was charged with kill n,( and slaying J( bn Yates, at Walton-on-the-IEII, cn the sth of the M... kle:tou prosecuted, and Mr. Wilkins appeared fur the prisoner. It appeared from til, evidence of a woman named Mary it,gerson, that u; - , the night of the sth of August she end the deceased left Walton for Liverpool, about 9 o'clock. They were on their way home ab ut 11 o'clock, and as they passed along Mere-lane they met a hzckney coach, when ti e deceased tilled out to the coachman, and some angry words passed. The coachman then got down from the coat and beat the deceased, who at length called eta that he had been struck by something hardier than his fists. She then went to the man, got hold of him by the ear, and requested he would desist, on which he left the deceased, got on h;i coach, and drove off Tne witn.:s . ; said she believed the prisoner to be the man who had beaten the deceased, but on being asked to point out tl:e prisoner, was a lrn g time before are fixci un the,fight party. After the e , aeh drove ()l the w,teess tit E r assisr,nce and the decea,,ed was found lying in the lane qaiie dead. Mr. N. S. Glazehroek, surg.em, deposed to making a post it,ortern examination of the body of the deed aced ; that he found a traciure of the skull above the left eye, and the deceased h died front effusi,.n of blood on the It was proved that the prisoner had on the night in question driven a Mr. Allanson to his house, in Waltim law-, that he ri!actied his stables about hair past eleven and stated th,t he had been ilk:Aced by a person on the road, whcm lie had struck with hip: whip. The jury, W - tt , r being out of Court two hours, pro nounced the prisoner Guilty, but recommended him to rasrey on the ground of the provocation he had received. Tire Learned JUDGE sentenced the prisoner to be im pvisoned and kept to hard labour for the space of four Ca lend:4r month-ft.

M,tilc conduct , d the prosecution; the prisoner was Bete' ded by Mr, Joseph P,dock. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner w in the habit of weaving for Messrs:. Walker, but about the IGth of January last had a dispute with his employ ers respecting wages ; that on that day be had a warp ani chute to weave for the prosecutors, and had cut the warp with a pair of scissors. A person nanird Houghton swore to seeing the pri soner do this, and a number I , f other ait esses v‘er• .called to depose to ,th:•r facts, and to toe prisoner harm ; returned the v'srp , cith par vf it cut Mr. l'om.ocK took an objecio: to the indicttmnt, on the ground that it was not supported by the evidence. as, unless the warp was entirely rendered useless, any injury done to it was not within the meaning of the statute. HIS LORDSHIP, however, ruled that it was a question fur the consuleration of the jury as to whether the injur done to the Karp was done with the intention of destroy- tr:ctit. j 'Mr. PoLLocx addressed the jury on behalf of the pri cant-r, and called witnesses, who contn:licted, in th,.- rnoit direct tnatmer. the evidi,nee for the prosecution, °tie of whom stated that the injury clone to the warp had been done by accident. The jury eventually acquitted the prisoner. August 16. George Gasiiell was indicted for having, at Littli , Lever, stabbed, cut, and wounded J. Nelson, with ilitent to do him some grievous bodily harm. Mr. FoLLoc conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Wilkins delenr'ed the. prisoner. .c.llat the prisoner and the presecuter were trite-resore quarrel having tak. place betweee them—on what ground did not exactly appear—they finally came to blows. The prosecutor, who evident)) se , me! anxious to scree the prisoner, stated that he (the prosecutor) kicked at him several times; that the prisoner took out his knife to defend himself ; that he (the pro secutor) rushed on him, and that the knife wounded him (the prosecutor) in the groin, but he believed acci dentally. Another witness said that. on the quarrel commencing, the pro,:eeutor rushed past him up to where the prisoner was standing, but he could not tell whether or not any blows were then struck. He saw the pri. saner take out his knife and hold it up before him, as a dagger. The prosecutor said, usine some coarse expresien, "Do y ell mean to use that at me ?"

Verdict—Not Guilty. Boss O'Cracker, aged 13 ; Valentine Dunn, aged 10 ; And Henry Ingram, aged 10, were indicted for horse sae ling. 74' ..Tn!f:es e(smitt7ted the case for the prosecution ; rt,ocer Nl`Cracker was defended by Mr. Atkinson, and Ingram and Dunn by Mr. J. Pollock. The three lad; presented a singu'ar appearance when placed at the bar as horse-stealers ; Ingram and Dunn se,p-cially looked quite as young as their years, and their beads hardly reached above the edge of the dock. It appeared that the prisoners were resident in Sal ton!, One John Preston, who also resides there, had, in the early part of June last, received a black gelding Iroin a person of the name of Woodcock, in exchange :for a bay norse. This gelding, about the 14th of June, 'was sent to graze in a field in the neighbourhood, where it remained until the 17th. On the evening of that it was missed, and it appeared that in the course of that day the prisoners were in possession of it, and took it to the yard of a knacker called Padmore, where they offered it for 154. 6d. This was refused, and they subsequently sold it to a person living close by tor 12s. It s , sas in the yard. Inquiry being mado for the missing horse, ,it proved that it had been so sold by the prisoners, and ;the stows were identified as having been put on a few days tte.oro the exchange t , , , 0k place with Preston. They k- f, of a very peculiar illepe, to meet some defect in the runt. and had the maker's name sta:nped upon them. ;:orse was worth 31. Mr. ATKINioN and Mr. POLLOCK respectively for the several prisoners, said they were unable to resist the case set up for the pros.cution. The prisoners had, how ever. op to that time. borne a good character, and no doubt 4ere, in this transaction, the tools of persons older than theinse;ves. Til every fact w ere to be taken as proved, because a wit ness had sworn to it, Ito twist innocent might be curl v ictett of offences; and their experience taught them that the most painful charges were often made against innocent parties without the slightest foundation, and their only protection was to be found in the discrimination of the jury, who took care to examine into all the motives of the parties, and weighing the evidence carefully and considerately, return their verdict accordingly. Should the jury find a verdict of guilty on so awful a charge as this, on a case of mere suspi cion, and without any positive evidence on which they could rely ? Tots was the question they had to answer, and he had very little fear for the result. The Learned Counsel then proceeded at some length to animadvert on time evidence of the witnesses, which he contended (a as wholly unworthy of credit, and on which he maintained it was wholy impossible they could find a verdict of guilty. He would ask the jury, as men of commmon sense, whether it was probable that the defendant could have been guilty of the crime laid to his charge ? He begged the jury to consider most attentively the letters of the defendant's daughter; they were mos , important. Was it, he would ask the jury, possible that a young lady could write such letters, knowing, as she must have done, that she had been all the while carrying on an incestuous intercourse with her own father? The Learned Counsel concluded a powerful and impressive address by calling on the jury to return a verdict for the defendant. The CHIEF JUSTICE then proceeded to sum up the case. After describing the nature of the case, he said that any re compense that could be given to a husband who had been de prived of the affections of his wife must of necessity be pose reparation for the injury sustained. It was, however, the only reparation acknowledged by the law, and juries, in estimating damages in such cases, must always be guided by the p ecu li ar circumstances of each case. This was not the ordinary case of the offence being committed by a stranger. It was a father charged with the offence upon his own child, and this certainly rendered the crime one of a far more hateful nature. Although human nature re belled against such an act, that ought not to excite a prejudice against the party accused, but on the contrary, ought rather to excite a doubt of the possibility of its having been committed. The Learned Judge then proceeded to commeht upon the evidence, and he remarked that on the part of the plaintiff it was alleeed that the charge had been distinctly gad-rum to the eviderce, while, on the hther hand ; there could cat the defendant alleged the whole to be a conspiracy for tit. purroae of forwarding the views of the plaintiff. The jury would judge between the parties. It was fa them to decide the question. His Lordship then, after referring to tne state ments made by the servants, said it was certainly most extra ordinary that they should have continued to remain in the house when they represented themselves to be satisfied a most abominable intercourse was being carried on between a. father and ho daughter. This remark especially applied to the witness echo said that she was aware that the intercourse was going on before the marriage took place, and that she assisted in carrybg out tt e ehmdestit.e marriage. _ The jury then retired to'r about forty minutes, when they returned their verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 3,000/. The following are copies of the letters alluded to by the Learned Counsel. The first is a letter from the defendant to his daughter : I"2oth October, 11,12. " My dearest Mary—Oh, how terrific is that storm which has arisen against your unhappy father. Where will these things eed ? My hesith is marvellously good, but my peace of mind is like the steam from the vessel—gone for ever. Pray write one line to say you are well. Alas 1 you cannot say you are happy, We fall together Give it to our friend Hutchings, who will send it to Nesbitt, who will soon know where to address THE WRETCH." The second is from the plaintiff to his wife Clifford-street, Sunday Night, Nov. 27. " I fear you have wrongly estimated the motives that have induced me to seek an inttrview with you. So honest has been my intention, so true the conviction on my mind that. I was doing right, I nyw doubt my own senses, and think I am incapable of judging for myself.' I will now recal all that has happened since this unfertunate night five weeks, and without. mentioning every day, I will allude to one or two on which events have happened that have weighed greatly on my mind. That I was unkind, nay cruel, in leaving you, is most true. I acted unjustly up to the day I sent Mrs. Parsons to you. The message she brought to you was sent with the most sincere hepe of the first step to a reconciliation. Your acknowledgment was dictated in cold politeness, together with a promise that you would write to me on the morrow. Alas, the morrow ! but no reply. 'Twas looked for, but in vain; the reason was, 1 take it, your father would net let you write. From that day I have not heard from you. You leave Lyndon, return to town, go to By field, and again return to London, but nut a syllable is breathed to me. Think you, then, all this time that you are forgotten, that in seven weeks I have ceased to love, and buried in oblivion the sole object and adoration of my ihoughts for months past? You little know me. What hap pens in the meantime? On Saturday, before I called on you in Welbeck-street, and afterwerds at Myatt's, the agent of Mr. John Attwood calls, relates net only what has passed between us, hut ie absolutely in posses ion of every movement of yours ; nay, more, the contents of your very letters, from the Monday en which you promised to write to me up to the time of his calling, and quietly winds up his story by making the disgusting proposition of Mr. Attwood (through* the influ ence of Mr. Wetherell), lending himself to obtain a divorce, and an Act of Parliament, to enable me to mai ry again, pro vided I would commit adultery I The man will prove my answer. God knows my suffering; and, as if the draught was not yet bitter enough, an intimation was thrown out, in an indirect manner, that you were privy to the proposition. 1 know no more. I waited aexiously for your coming to town, and on Monday night I called twice in Welbeck-street, to communicate this heart-breaking intelligence, and had it been your wish, rather than you should be miserable for having married me, I would have sacrificed my character as a man, and my honour as a gentleman, aiid allowed myself to be adjudged a convicted villain by the highest court of adjudication in the world. Friday you were not at Wel beck-street ; on the Tuesday I called at Alivares : you know the result. On the Wednesday (informed I am) you are mak ing arrangements to go abroad with your father, and that he has extracted a solemn oath from you that you will never live with me. Is this so? Well, the consequence has been I have been up night and day seeking for you. What greater proof of affection can be shown than I -ace ifice everything ? I risk all rather than lose you. Am Ito be blamed fur using every pos sible means of recovering the dearest object of my life? Re :feet for one little mr,:nr , nt, and see witc , iier the means that have been used to prevent my seeing you have not justly added to my suspicions. If the severest feelings could recom pense you for part impetuosities, if the sufferings of my bleeding heart could be imagined, some slight reciprocity would, I think, he evinced to console my distracted mind. I have to-day for the first time been told of many improvident things that have happened through the inadvertency of thoughtless distraction. I have been too careless. I have no one to make an excuse, no friend to ex tenuate my conduct. There is only one thing I shall reproach you for, and that was your coldness, and which you have con tinued to carry out to a heart-breaking extreme. It would be folly for me to advise others, when seemingly Ido not act ju diciously myself. The time may come when your father may not so contemptuously disregard my advice. The settlement will be got ready as soon as possible. The only thing we shall have to wait for now will be your trustee. Pray send word rho this is to be. The lady with whom I had some conversa tion this aftereoon promised to send this to you ; or, I should rather say, give it to seen for lam sure you were in the house. I have been so deceived of late I almost doubted to trust her ; but many things she said led me to believe she was a kind. good woman. She, like you, seemed most suspicious of my character. I trust you will re. main with her, for it gives me the greatest pain to mention that I have heard you have been obliged to put up with the worst of lodgings during the last week. Rest assured on my word you shall not be intruded on in any way. I would fain say the same to your father. I truer you will write to me. I send you your brooch, w hich I forgot to. c4y. I trust to God you will yet be happy, and have the greatest reason to believe the sincere and besr , felt expressions of affection of your most sin care, devoted, and affectionate husband. I have received a note from you to.tiay. Do not pe , si , t in saying you do not wi•li communicate before the settlement. A few kind expres s i ons from you may give slumbers to a sleepless pillow." T mg is the answer ' 6' 28thNbiember, 18.12 : - I "My dearest Husband=—Would that you had• ever acted as your two last letters promise; but it is too late for letters or words; actions, completely altered actions, alone will convince your much afflicted wife. The letter I promised to send to you was Mr. (Airfield's suggestion, and I could ri-t send it because he did pet come to me. • Had his conduct not been so deceitful I should not now tell you that the cold letters you complain of were dictated by him. When I found you were going into Chancery I could not write. My father did not prevent my replying, only your own conduct. Had my letters been answered in affection such as is due to a wife, you should have bad plenty. Who Mr. John Attwood's agent is I know not, and very much doubt if my lather does. At any rate I shall communicate with my father on this shocking subject. Be as sured it is the most earnest wish of my poor father and myself that you should so alter your conduct that I could in safety allow you to r turn to me. Oh, John, did you know who are lour friends, I might have some hope that my life is not to be spent in widowhood. 1 know it is possible that you may change, but my hopes have been so often blighted. Be assured that if y ou after I shall not go abroad. It is quite false that I have taken steps towards it. Nor do I intend to refrain from see ing you when I see yeu altered. You have it in your power, my dear husband, to make matters peaceable. Do so, pray do. This will be a certain proof of your sincerity and real regard for me. You promise not to ask to see me against my will. When I wish it you shall know by letter or my coming to you. All little inadvertencies shall be forgotten. I know my own conduct is not blameless in these trifles. You hate heard fal , ely that I have had un comfortable lodgings this last week. My mind has been the greatest sufferer. Do not mistake my motive in writing to you; it is to assure you that it is not too late to regain my confidence, but that I am determined to have my judgment convinced that you are really intending to alter, both towards me and my father, and that you have now begun. 't hen happy days may await us all, instead of this heart-breaking work. The hor rible tale you state is a perfect mystery to me, and I must wait to hear from my father, but do not be distracted by it. Let me hear from yon as soon as possible that you are satisfied with what I say, and that you do not doubt the affection of your poor wife. I wean to relieve, though not to release from blame, your aching hurt. 211,y letter, 'sent to Avenue road will reach me. I wish my dear husband would pray God night and morning to direct him.

Let me intreat you, dear John, not to attempt this change of conduct without prayer and the reading of your Bible ; if you take it up, God will bless it to you. That He may give you His Holy Spirit to soften and check your turbulent spirit is still the affectionate prayer and wish of your sincerely attached but afflicted wife, " M. E. MYNDE COOKE. " 30th November, 1842." " My Dearest Husband has I fear misunderstood his wife's meaning in saying that kind expressions alone would not convince her that her husband was truly sorry. As far as kind expressions go I shall be the first to appreciate them, and wish most earnestly I had never had reason to ask for actions to ac company them ; no one in the world can have the same feelings for you that I have. When you act against my judgment I long to step in and prevent you. My greatest wish is to he proud of y ou as my dear and affectionate husband, and that you should be proud of me. This I have once been ; but alas! I cer tainly, find it difficult to believe your altered expressions since last we saw each other are really now what may be depended upon. Still they are what, when I first took the name of wife, you acted upon to the utmost ; and if I can be convinced of yuur sincerity, I shall be most happy again to be the beloved of my husband, and will, to convince you that I have really loved and felt fur you as an affectionate wife, who is really grieved and ashamed when her husband does wrong ; but if at this moment you think it would show deeper feelings for me to praise and pity you, and run into your arms, I must assure you this is blindness and weakness; not, affec tion, such as will bear to be tried. Such conduct may flatter for the moment, but it is not what will last ; affection founded upon judgment will last as long as life. You have, in our happy days, said you had married a woman of sense, and that you were proud of her. Then, dear John, do not blame her for acting up to her opinion. You never doubted my love till your conduct towards me altered. But I shall not say any thing more about what has passed, unless these hostilities are renewed. The letter or letters stated to have been written by me to some one abroad, or Mrs. Gilbert, or somebody, I beg to °say have never existed. All I can say is, give me but the opportunity by your altered sentiments and actions to give vent to my affections. Pull the string judiciously and you will find it the strongest you ever tried yet. It is not the strongest looking rope that will bear the greatest strain ; it is quality, not size. There is a peculiar something in those terms, husband and wife, which none can feel but those who bear them. There is a sacredness about them. Turn which way you will they still ought to bind, if they do not. You will say I condemn myself in this. Well, then, rest assured ail may yet be well, if all that is possible be done to con vince me that I may safely trust and confide in you as my dear and really fond and affectionate husband. One method would propose would be a correspondence ; but do not feel hurt if lam honest with you. My heart is fast sinking under all these heavy trials, and I may find it necessary to seek country air. I shall still be obliged to send my letters to Mrs. Kett. Should some d-lay occur, do not put it to the score of inatten tion. lam very glad you are convinced my dear father had nothing to do with tiie divorce matter. I hope that in time you will be convinced you have wrongly judged him in other matters. May G,..j bless you, my dear husband, and enable you soon to believe me to be your devotedly attached wife, "December 5, 1842." "M. E. MYNDE COOKE. The next is a letter written by the defendant to the plaintiff after the Chancery suit had concluded:— " Byfielrl Rectory, January 9, 1843. " Sir—As you have intimated to my daughter sour wish to ccme to Bs field, and she has expressed to me her determina tion not to meet you for any purpose whatever, you place me in the painful position of being obliged to forbid you my house, whether my daughter be in it or not, end I hereby accordingly forbid you my house—Your obedient servant, " CHARLES WETHERELL." The three following letters were also sent by the plaintiff's wife to her husband:— " My dear husband—Your expressions of sorrow and affec t:on do indeed make no small impression on your poor wife, and shall have due weight with her. I cannot help saying that you mistrust my affection for you, or why say again that any one has the power to influence me:in:my conduct ? I surely gave you proof enough to the contrary of this when I ran away with you; and since last Sunday week I have written, and assured you I acted on my own judgment. When I mention the country 1 bind myself , o no particular spot. I have invitations from friends. But allow me to say that when I went to Ily field it was after being told by you that the apartments were no longer at my ser vice. I was therefore at liberty to seek the pro!ection of my natural guardian. I was told by Mrs. Kett that your objec tion to my going to Byfield is, that when last I went my letters were altered. I will now tell you plainly what it was that altered my tone towards you. It was that, contrary to your solemn oath and promise to me that you would not, you put matters into Chancery. Long before you deserted me I told you if ever you went into Chancery I would never forgive you. I repeated it to Mr. Parsons on the Saturday ; and on the Monday you broke the solemn oath and promise you made to the wite you now implore not to leave town, when her health recptires it, betause she may be further estranged from you. What can I do or say? I would yield ; but then, although you promise to give up all or me, your actions do not prove it. Look at the name of Waddy still retained as trustee, not withstanding my wish it should be erased, and a disinterested party named. You have heard I intended nominating Cor field. But I beg to say it is quite untrue. I ask you not to put it to the score of inattention if, because I go into the country, my letters are delayed. You deny me this. That you are deeply distressed for your treatment to me I feel thoroughly persuaded of ; your feelings are always in extremes, and I do sincerely pity and griiive over you, and will, as soon as I see I may with safety, try again to be your companion and friend ;in that peculiar link of a wife to a hus band. The sentiments expressed in my letters do not say I dislike you so much that I will never see you again. Were we to meet now we could not avoid discussion. We should not agree. Well, then, is it not better that when we meet there should be no ground of dispute? Surely you must see I wish when we meet that nothing should prevent our being happy in the enjoyment of each other's society. In the meantime let us try and prepare to suit each other better than before. You say Ido not forgive you. Wait a little, and you will see that pride does not actuate me. I have told you that it is your broken word to me as your wife. It often takes a short time to do wrong ; but, however we struggle or complain, we cannot repair the evil so quickly. I again repeat, convince my judg. ment, and then I will see you. It is quite as painful for me to be obliged to say so as it is for you to wait patiently and per form it. If you send me any money I will put it to no im proper use. It must strike you I want money for many other purposes than that of going out of town. You ask me to be honest with you. Well, then, let me tell you, that did you mistrust your lawn power more, I should have more hope of you. You feel assured you could please rite. But I shall not scruple to tell you that a very great change must take place first. We are never acting with so much propriety as when we doubt ourselves. May God influence and direct you, and keep you from running into these extremes, is the earnest prayer of your affectionate wife, "10th of December, 1842." " M. E. M. COOKE, "My dear Husband—Your intended trip to Brighton will, I hope, be the means of diverting your mind from the dis tracting scenes which have lately occurred. It would give We great pleasure if I could feel secure in either remaining in one spot, or letting you know where I am ; but ever since last Sunday fortnight my nerves have been much shook; so much so, as that I dare not let you know my residence. lam so alarmed from day to day, and from moment to moment, that I know not where to fly, and am continually contriving fresh places of security. My expenses have been very heavy. I have been put to every possible inconvenience—m 7 wardrobe scattered, my mind distracted, and my health sinking. It will, I fear, take some time to allay my apprehensions. Through your clerk I have received 501. He says you have a sprained wrist. I hope it is not seriously hurt. I wish you to understand that I did not know Mrs. Kett would suggest the propriety of send ing me some money. I knew nothing of it till after it was mentioned to you. Now, that you are away from those persons who have surrounded you for some time past, do try and calmly consider it you cannot escape from their influence. Do you , not,thitik that if you value your own future happiness :von must do so Your moral courage is strong enough. Do try. I evils pYomise you success if you do. Surely the one se involved in the divorce matter cannot be your real friend. If you are really sorry for what has passed, and anxious to show such to 1 3 ,, the case, why retain another who has at least encouraged you to do that for which you are now so grieved? You do not know what bitter feelings are excited in my mind to see in your handwriting the greatest wish still to live in the heart of your wife, and yet that acts do not accompany it. If your heart is so deeply wounded, do show it by actions. My greatest wish is that you would so convince me that I could accede to your wishes. May God enable you to convince your poor afleted, but still affectionate wife, " M. E. Al. COOKE. " Dee. 15, 1842." "My dear Husband—l am glad the settlement and release have both been executed. I did, indeed, attach much import ance to this object, as it relieves me from the anguish of having rendered my fattier liable to a suit in Chancery. It appears to me that my father having assured you he would be liable for my jost debts. it would be more in accordance with your promises to me if you had given up the small freehold at Byfleid.--Your affectionate wife, " N. E. MYNDE COOKE. " Jan. 3. 1843." T ,, y n e d x e a t r is w a t l f e e tle o ir addressed t he alet plaintiff ter to t o his you uwifethe in stant, to request an interview, with the object of entering into certain explanations that I f e lt were necessary previous to a long-continued absence from each other, provided such expla nation rendered that separation necessary to our mutual com fort. I called in Eaton-place for the same purpose. In again addressing you believe me I am actuated by only one motive— the desireof forwarding the interests and happiness of yourself, your father, and myself. With regard to the past lam perfectly sensible of actions on my part which I would had never occurred, and whatever might have been the result of our inter view had you granted it, you at least would have been satisfied that time had worked co little change in my sentiments and opinions, and had produced reflections which tended to con vince me of the many errors into which 1 have fallen. You, too, would have been generous enough to believe how ill advised I have ever been, and in the midst of all would, I am sure, rather pity than upbraid, and, on bearing the treachery by which I am and have been surrounded, rather would you sympathise than continue longer to censure or condemn. I had wished, deeply wished, to have told you from my own lips that which I cannot here, when perhaps all would have still been well; for 1 feel in our present position that no false pride with the woman I love, and you know sincerely love, and that woman my wife, ought to interfere to shadow with the clouds of misery a long vista of years. Thus I hope I have expressed myself suffi ciently clear to convince you that my desire we should meet was neither to perplex or to annoy, but calmly, after anxious hours of reflection, upon a couch of sickness, of regret for the past, and hope for the future, to convey to you pert , onally the actual feelings which now possess me. I can cnly add, that if this open avowal and appeal to your feelings should prove as idle as my. last, and should be again treated by you with silence, that I must, however irksome it be to reconcile, consider it your wish never to see me again ; but God grant for both our sakes, that your bosom will yield to nobler and better feelings, and that you will no longer hesitate to see me and hear aught 1 have to say. For your guidance I mention that after next week my stay in town will be uncertain. God bless you, " Relieve rne, sincerely and affectionately, to be your fond and devoted husband, " JOHN MYNDE COOKE." ACCIDENT IN REAPING.—On Thursday afternoon, Charles Russell, a boy, aged 15, met with an accident under rather singular circumstances. He was standing behind a per son who was reaping, when the man having stumbled, he fell, -nd his hook caught the boy under the knee, inflicting a severe wound.— Gloucestershire Chronicle. ELOPEMENT.—On Saturday morning, about .eight o'clock, the family of Mr. S. Leavend, of the Brompton road, were thrown into considerable alarm by the discovery that their eldest daughter, Miss Emma Leavend, had left her father's house clandestinely, taking her trinkets and a portion of wearing apparel with her. Immediate inquiry was insti tuted, when it was ascertained that the young lady had been seen to enter a coach that morning, accompanied by a gentle. man, which immediately set off at a rapid rate towards town. In the course of the day Mr. Leavend received a communica tion from his daughter, entreating his forgiveness, and inform ing him that she had been united that morning. The young lady is possessed of considerable property, and the fortune" admirer is a member of the medical profession, in the neigh bourhood of Manchester-square.

Unless the cause of death could be ascertained, it w ould be useless entering into any incruiry touching the other circumstances, and therefore he. (the Coroner) would have the examination made at once. It was possible the deceased might have died from the agency of some poison. If arsenic had been employed, they might detect its presence ; he be lieved, however, that when arsenic was used, the death was seldom so sudden as it had been in this case.

"During Mr.. Pitt s lifetime (observes the Chronicle) she was Pattered and honoured by all the higher el :sses, and especially by the princess, princesses, and the Court circle, and she was pretty nearly worshipped by the place-hunters. Her influence with her unclle was great, and she used it generously. But while she thee, according to the proverb, made a number of ungrateful persons, she, at the same time, made a multitude of enemies amee g people of rank and consequence by her own course of coniduct, which was upon occasions supercilious and arrogant to a degree, and by her unfortunate facility of saying sharp things swith the most stinging effect. She certainly pos sessed a rapid and deep insight into human character, and her remarks upon the distinguished persons with whom she was acquainted, as . well as the many travellers who visited her at Joost, are always pointed and searching, if not always just. As it may easily be presumed, she idolized her uncle's memory ; yet it cannot be fa.irly said her praise of him was exaggerated. All the passages i't lating to him in her statements and reminis cences are of st ri king interest, and she has been able to do jus tice to him anaitist common belief in many instances. She admired the 104 abilities of Fox, and entertained asirong per sonal regard for• him. She liked Horne Tooke and Sir Francis Burdett. Canening she hated as the most in.incere, deceitful, and falsest of ts-uman kind ; but she admitted his powers. Castlereagh, Li werpool, Huskisson, and all Pitt's colleagues and followers, except Lord Melville, she despised and derided. Th e Prince of Wales she thought to be the falsest of the false, but expressed the vrarmest esteem for the Duke of York and his younger brothem. Her strictures upon the character and con duct of the Du chess of Devonshire, and other she•politicians and intreguanti to of the day, are spiteful in the extreme, but rresistably arnu•ting and forcible."

TILE lIARVEST IN FRANCE.--The weather is be , ginning to inspire apprehensions for the safety of the crops No very material damage has yet been occasioned by the in clemency of the season, except in localities which had been ravaged by stomas ; all will depend, however, on the turn the weather will take in the course of the next ten days. Should it set in fine, thore is still every prospect of a good harvest ; but, if the rain c °Wince, all hope will be at an end. Vegetation throughout France is late by at least three weeks; and towards the north the wheat is still green. August, this year, conse quently, represents the month of July of other years. The quantity of rain /is inferior to that which fell in July of the cala mitous year 181.6, when it rained during 26 days consecutively; nevertheless, should the quantity exceed nine centimetres be tween the 26t1s. of July and the 26th of August next, the con sequences will be disastrous. It is calculated that every hour's rain entails a lose of 1,0(0,000f. on the country. The rye, which presented. a fine appearance, has been cut down nearly everywhere ; bat it is liable to become heated and rot, from the excessive electricity of the atmosphere. The humidity is par ticularly ominous in Belgium, whence orders to the extent of 500,000 hectolit rats of wheat have been already sent to Eng land, Marseilles, and Dantaic. In the south of Russia a great drought prevail/4, and the crops are also seriously menaced. From the wine d istricts the accounts are still mere lamentable. NEWCASTLE' COW HILL OR LAMMAS FAIR.-- Cow Hill or Latromas fair for horses and other cattle was held on Tuesday, on the Pdeor, and was numerously attended by sellers and buyers from various parts of the country. The stook shown were fully equal to previous occasions, both in kind and quality, and a coissiderable amount of business was done. Cows, of which there watt a good show, were in demand, an:l prime beasts brought 15L. to 161., second-rate Ili. to 12/., and in ferior about 8/. Pigs of a superior kind sold brisk arid good prices were obtained. The average, for pigs la eielliog eleven stones, was 31. 10c. to 41. ; for small pigs, 17s. to 18s. each ; and for bacon the average price way he stated at 7.5 tier stone.

BRUSSELS, AUG. 14.—M. Nothombe, who was erro neously stated to have set out for Berlin, took his oath to the King, on Tuesday, in the quality of Envoy Extraor dinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of his Majesty at Berlin. It seems that the apprehensions that were entertained for the crops of potatoes begin to be allayed. Yesterday in the market of Brussels, while the price of corn experi enced a further rise, the price of potatoes, which last week was a few francs per sack of 100 kilogrammes, fell to 4f. 50 centimes, and at the close of the market to 4 francs. But it seems by accounts from Roulers, that the sickly appearance of the potato plants continue to cause much uneasiness. There will.be good crops they say of rye, wheat, oats, and beans, if the rain should cease within a few days. All the steamers of the royal English navy have left the roads of Antwerp, except the Victoria and Albert, which will wait till her Majesty's return. The Moniteur publ , shes a royal decree, of the 30th of July, at the instance of M. Dechamps, Minister of Pub lic Works, which completes the organisation of the Post 4•ffice. It consists of eighteen articles, the most curious, but the least gallant, of which is as follows :—" Women are not admissible to employment in the administration of the Post-office."

As the unfavourable state of the weather of last week had rather the effect of damping the market, better hopes of the future have been infused by the favourable change that has since taken place. LEEDS. —The markets at our Cloth Halls have been very dull this week, the principal cause of which has been the very unsettled state of the weather, and the fears entertained in consequence for the harvest. Prices are firm, and the stocks on hand scarcely an average at this season of the year. Beavers, pilot cloths, fancy cloakings, and shawl s , are the principal articles selling ; fine and middle qualities of cloth have been in very limited demand.

BATH, AUG. 16 —Yesterday afternoon au inquiry commenced in this city before A. H. English, Esq., the Coroner, as to the death of Lieut.-General George Dick, whose demise, it will be remembered, took place as far back as - the 15th of March, 1844. From what has trans pired during the last few days, a considerable s ensa ti on has been c reate d amongst the fashionable circles of Bath and Clifton. The deceased was a gentleman of large fortune, who formerly resided at Clifton, but towards the close of his life he went to reside at Bath, where he kept a large establishment, and moved in the highest circles of society. The present inquiry was instituted, as will be seen from the introductory remarks of the Coroner, at the instance of his eldest son, George Dick, Esq., who fills an office in her Majesty's civil service in the East Indies, and who has come from Mazoompore for the express purpose of causing it to be made. At the time of General Dick's death the only members of his family residing with him were his own daughter, a Mrs. Brigdall, whose husbaed formerly lived in this city, but is now out of England, and her son (by a former mar riage), a Mr. Thomas. At the period that Mr. George Dick left England a will existed in his favour. An affectionate correspondence was kept up between himself and parent till the time of his death, after which a will was produced, leaving the General's property to the grandson, Mr. Thomas. The death of the General was rather sudden, and this fact, together with other circum stances, have tended to raise a suspicion of foul play. At three o'clock in the afternoon the coroner and jury assembled at the Cemetery at Bath wick, for the purpose of witnessing the exhumation of the remains of the gallant officer, and of proceeding with the inquiry. Mr. Ilerapath, the eminent analytical chemist, and Mr. George Barrette, surgeon, attended to make a post mortem examination. Mr. George and Mr. Dick (sons of the deceased) were likewise present, as were also Dr. Cardue, Dr. Daniel, and many other members of the medical profession and resident gentry of Bath, Clifton, and Bristol. The jury having been sworn arid taken their seats in the chapel of the cemetery, the coroner said they were assembled under circumstances of a distressing and ex traordinary character, to inquire as to the death of Gene ral George Dick. Althouvh a very long time had elapsed since his demise, ye-t circumstances had come to Ins (the coroner's) know ledge which rendered it imperative in him, in the faithful discharge of his office, to cause the present inquiry. The death of General Dick took place in that city as far back as seventeen or eighteen months ago; circumstances accompanying it were such as ren dered it exce e di ng ly d es i ra bl e an d p ro p e r that aninquest should have been held at the time, and had the par ties by whom the deceased had been surrounded acted with discretion and propriety an inquest undoubtedly would have been instituted. He (the coroner) was acting now at the earnest request of the General's eldest son, a gentleman of the highest character and respectability, who was in India at the time of his father's death, and who had at great sacrifice of time, feeling, and money. come to England to have the matter investigated. In ordering the exhumation of the body he (the coroner) believed that he was acting in the strict discharge of his duty. Of course there were circumstances besides Mr. Dick's information to justify the course he had taken. From the period which had elapsed since the death, the chances of discovering whether it had been cau&ed by violence rested on a possibility. Still if it had been pro duced by some description of poison traces might yet be found, and Mr. Herapath, whose fame as an analytical chemist must be well known to them all, was present to remove and examine the stomach and intestines. Mr. Barrette, the deputy coroner for the county, would make a post mot tem examination of the body, and it would be most satisfactory,as well to Me. Diek as to the parties in directly accusi d, should the body be found in such a state of preservation as to enable them to arrive at the cause of death. Mr. Dick had good reason to be dissatis fied with the conduct of that part of the family which resided with his parent at the time of his death, and to whom the propriety of holding an inquest was made at that period. Mr. Thomas, however, inter fered, and said there was no necessity tor it, and that the body of his grandfather could be beried without one. A certificate had been given by two doctors that the deceasf d had died from apoplexy, but on those gen tlemen being summoned, they could give no reason for that opinion, except that the General died suddenly, and Belfast and Ballymena Cork and Bandon Dublin and Belfast Junction Dublin and Drogheda Dundalk and Enniskillen Great Southern and Western Great Western—Dublin to Mullingar and Athlone Londonderry and Coleraine Londonderry and Enniskillen Newry and Enniskillen Ulster Extension Waterford and Kilkenny Waterford and Limerick 0 FOURTEENTH EDITION of the SILENT FRIE ND Frailty,/ with Coloured Engravings 01 0 . 1 ; 0 0 Just published, price 2s. 6d., fr e e by p os t (i n a sealea ti riIHE SILENT FRIEND - a Medict o p „ the Infirmities of the Generatiye System in "'; oi ,fi! on the loss of the reproductive powers, with trieu n ,,",ov.f, The baneful effects of solitary indulge- ea ' , neglected ; 10 0 1 , , ,e toms, &c., are fully pointed out.
