The new principles on which this Society is • founded, bring the benefits f Life Assurance within the each of all. It pro vides against the cant ingcney of misfortun- duri,g life, well as against the isk of death ; and evert effords to the Assured a fund out of his premums on which he can at any time operate, as his eireomstanees mty regoir,. It thus affords to the pru dent of all classes, the gee test facilities and most poWerful en couragement to lay up a cc, tain provision for the fu tire. Among other advantages the ssurcd will enjoy the follow ing :- 11 . Moderate rates of Premium consistent with security; be sides the g tarantee of half a million of capital. 2. Ne entry-money. 3. Power of convertiw* the policy at any time into apayment in cash, a net= policy, or immediate, tr. deferred Annuity. 4. After five years, two thirds of payment on elapsed policies returnable at death. 5. The Assur, d, on complying with the conditions of tha office, may, at any time. borrow two-thirds of all previous pay men s and the amount of any declared bonus. 6. Two-thirds of the entire profits on the Life Assurance, and on the investment of the Gt arantre Fund, divided an nually among the Insured, and at their option paid in cash, added to the policy, or ap lied in reduction of future pre miums. 7. Great facility in effecting Tnsu antes. Premiums payable by one paym Bt, or annually, h .If-yearly, quarterly, or monthis, or on the increasing or decreasing scale. 8. Females assure. , at one year less than their actual ages. 9. Relaxation of restrictions on travelling beyond the limits of Europe, except to places specially enumerated, and a policy in force seven years not forfeited by suicide.

By the operation of the same new principles, the Society is enabled to afford to the public a plan of DEFER RED ANNUITIES far more advantageous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the contribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may secure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his de ith. The industrious classes, hitherto obliged to resort to Savings' Banks and Benefit Societies, will find in this scheme a far safer and more profitable application of their savings. This Society is enabled, by judicious and accurate calculations, to afford a Deferred Annuity of a much greater amount than has hitherto been offered, beside the option of exchanging this annuity whin payable, for a large sum in cash, or a still larger Policy, payable without premiums at death ; while, by giving to the purchaser, at any time preceding the stipulated term of the Annuity's commencement, the povier of borrowing two-thirds all previous payments, it removes all risk of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording an ample re source during sickness and want of employment ; and, should the purchaser die b-fore arriving at the stipulated period, two thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives. The purchaser has also the power of converting, en equal terms, his deferred into a prese . t Annuity. The following tables are a specimen of the great and varied advantages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure through the Society.

SA LE OF BEER ACT.—The petitions pre sented by Mr. Mark Philips on Tuesday evening last, prior to Mr. Packington's motion for the introduction of a Bill " To Alter and Amend the Laws relating to the Sale of Beer," were in favour of the repeal of the existing Beer Bill, and not, as stated, in favour of its continuance. These petitions wer e th ree i n num ber—the first signed by seventy. one Clergy men , viz , thirty-seven of the EstabliSt.ed Church, and by the Ministers of every other persuasi.rn in the borough of Manchester. The second petition was from the Boroughreeve and Constables, Churchwardens, and Overseers of Manchester. The third from the inh-r -bitants of the township of Newton, in the parish of Man chester. MEETING OF LICENSED VICTUALLERS. A meeting of the licensed victuallers of the metropolis was held this day (Thursday), at the Crown and Anchor, fur the purpose of meeting the Delegates from twenty seven provincial towns, and agreeing with them as to the measures to be adopted fur the purpose of procuring a re peal of that clause of the Beer Act which authorises the keepers of Leer-shops to retati beer to be consumed on the premises. Mr. OSBORNE, the Governor of the Incorporated Society of Licensed Victuallers, took the Chair at half-past three o'clock. The advertisement convening the meeting having been read, Mr. VOUSLEY, sen., rose to propose the first resolution. lie thought that much argument would not be required to convince the meeting of the hardships under which the licensed victuallers laboured in consequence of the Beer Bill, or of the injury which had been given to their pro perty by that measure. He was glad to see, from the speech of the Chancellor of the Exchequer on this subject, th,-t be had acknowl, dged that the beer-shopkeepers had established a vested inter( st Now, if the beer-shop kcep,rs, who had been only established from eight to ten 3 ears, possessed a vested tight, in what situation were the licensed victuallers, who had embarked their capital in a trade which, for three centuries, had been sanctioned by different Acts of Parlia ment? But he was sorry to say that the vested inte re.;ts of the licensed viettrdlers had not obtained that resrect of which they were deserving. The Beer Bill had been a totel failure. The beer w,ts neither cheaper nor he to in consequence, the present comparative cheapn.•ss having been occasioned by a reducticn in the duty. —( Hear, hear, hear.) The establishing of the beer -shops had opened the sluices of vice and immorality in the rural districts. He would congratulate the meeting on the union which bad taken place between the licensed victuallers of town and country, and he trusted that this onion would continue. Our forefathers had thought proper to render the d• tilers i intoxicating liquors responsible for the quiet and sober demeanour of their guests. They had, ih, refore, been placed ut:dcr the superintendence of the Magistr..cy. With regard to the petition in the House of Commons, he had been told that as they were interested patties, their petitions were entitled to no attention, but yet the petitions from the corn-growers had been received with the greatest attention, notwithstanding they were interested parties. The licensed victualler had a direct interest in the preservation of good order, hut the frequenters of the to r.shop had full scope to do as they lik..d. lie con cluded by moving the resolution that the Beer Act was an utter and complete failure. Mr. READER seconded the resolution. Mr. JONES suggested that the beer-shopkeepers should be placed on the same footing as the licensed victuallers The res• lotion was then put and carried unanimously. Mr. HORNER said that the Chancellor of the Exchequer had refused to take intoc9usideration the vested interests of the licensed victuallers in the year 1830, interests which could be traced back to the year 1643, and yet he talked of the vested interests of the keepers of beer-shops, who, taken as a body, had not a vested capital of more than 201. each. It had been clearly shown, that the Act of 1830 had been a gross in fraction of the vested interests of the licensed victuallers, and had led to the ruin of many of them. He had great pleasure in proposing a resolution to that effect. Mr. GROVER seconded the resolution. Major ATCHERLEY here endeavoured to address the meeting, but was received with loud cries of " Order." The CHAIRMAN asked if he was a licensed victualler ? Major ATCIIERLEY said he was not, but had authority from two licen;ed victuallers at Stow-in-the-Wold. The CHAIRMAN requested that the names of the Dele gates should be read, when Major Ateherley's name did not appear among them: MWOr ATCHELEY—I gave my name to the Secretary on corning in, and my property is vested in public-houses. —( Considerable confusion here prevailed, with cries of " Turn him out I") The CHAIRMAN, however, suggested that he should be suffered to remain, as, after what had taken place, he *did not think he would make any attempt to disturb the pro ceedings. _ The - resolution was then put, and carried unanimously. Mr. VOUSLEY, jun., said that he did not care who might be preaent, or how adverse they might be to their cause, provided they adopted a gentlemanly course of conduct. They cared not who knew of their proceedings, and all they asked was to be permitted to pursue the even tenor of their way, uninterrupted by impertinent intruders. In anything which he might say he begged to be considered as not attacking the beer.shop. keeper individually, but the system. The difference be tween the beer-shopkeeper and the licensed victualler was this, that the first was irresponsible, and the second was responsible. The licensed victualler must possess a certain degree of capital, and pursue his vocation under the inspee tion of the Magistracy ; bile the beer-shopkeeper's stock. in trade consisted of a deal-bench and table and two barrels of ale, and he was subjt ct to no inspection whatever. lie did not lay claim to superior morality on behalf of the li censed victualler, but the circumstances in which he was placed necessarily made him more careful than the keeper of the beer.shop. The g-rea , er part of the beer-shop ke,pors themselves had been ruined by the business. There had been much said of the monopoly of the breWers, I but he denied the existence' of any such monopoly ; and even admitting that it were so—the permitting the exist ence of shops for the sale of beer not to be consumed on the premises would be sufficient to put an end to it. Bet r-,hops had been denounced by men of, all ranks and pat ties as injurious to the morality of the nation, and it behoved the Legislature to repeal the ob noxious clause rt fel red to in the resolution. Reference had been made to the comparative convictions of keepers of beer- shops and licensed victuallers for adulteration of beer. But it should be recollected that the victualler I w , ls liable to conviction if 141bs. of sugar were found on ' his premises, while the keeper :of the beer-shop might, if he chose, be a grocer as well —moreover, the penalty pail by= a licensed victualler was 2001., and that paid by a beer. shopkeeper 201., half in each case b ing• given to the informer—the licensed victualler pending the decision of the case could not transfer his licence, the keeper of the beer-shops could. Thus, there fore, the licensed victualler was:unrelentingly followed up, while the beer-shopkeeper escaped, because he was not worth prosecuting. He would therefore move a resolu- tion attributing the esils resulting from the Beer Act to that elsuse petmiling the consumption of beer on the premises of the beer-shopkeeper. Mr. BRYAN seconded the resolution. Mr. WATCHORN thought that, as the Legislature seemed inclined to assimulate the trade, any interference would be injudicious, especially as they could not be considered dis interested parties.—( Confusion and cries of Chair, chair !) The CHAIRMAN then, put the resolution, which was car ried unanimously. Mr. BINGLEY said it was necessary they should be stirring ,otherwise the Leeislature would imagine that they were satisfied. The beer-shops were not supported by the sale of beer alone, but by the illicit sale of spirits, by which the revenue was defrauded. If the West Indian planters were entitled to a compensation of twenty millions, the licensed victuallers were entitled to a compensation of fifty millions ; but they did not asked for this— they only asked for a repeal of that clause which operated so prejudicially to their interests He would therefore propose a resolution embodying these statements. Mr. ORGILL seconded the resolution, and said be knew many persons who had been reduced to poverty in conse quence of the Beer Act. Mr. OLIVER wished to have the resolution worded still more strongly. The CHAIRMAN then put the resolution, which was car ried unanimously. Mr. MORGAN, in proposing the petition to be presented to the House of Lords by the Duke of Wellington, and thet t he necessityl ti us e o o f f a C e r t n a by s in Lord a nysignatures Francis Mr. WALTER secon ' ded the resolution. Mr. BINOLEY said he wished the other promoters of the act would follow the example of the Duke of Wellington aid acknowledge their error. The petition, embodying the resolution, was then read. At this period a fresh attempt at interruption was made by n e s ' t'itu the t ions connected with the trade. lie w ould p ro p ose a surplus o f w hi c h would Major Ateherley, which was s p eedil y s uppressed.

Mr. ROWE would propese a resolution, embodying the suggestion of Mr. Metcalf. , Mr. HYDE said, ha d such a Committee been in existence in 1830, the Beer-Act would not have passed. flo se conded the resolution, which was put and carried una- nimously. Mr. KEASLEY moved, arid Mr. HUGH ES seconded, a re. solution of thanks to the country Delegates. Mr. BRYDEN, of Liverpool, in returning thanks, bore witness to the distressed state of the Trade in Liver')lol.

Bulwer's historical play of Richelieu was pro duced at this theatre last night. The subject is one admirably adapted to the purposes of the drama, as every one acquainted with the Cardinal's public and pri vate life must be aware of. His political career was one of constant excitement and surprise. Conspiracy succeded conspiracy against him, almost with the regu larity of the seasons; and he himself, with it King, if not adverse, at least lukewarm and distrustful, by the mere force of mental energy, as regularly crushed the eacspira tors, and consolidated his own rower. Stern, Intl •xible, cruel from policy, though not from nature, crafty as a ' Jesuit, and endowed with political prescience but seldom witnessed in statesmen—the character of Armind Richelieu is the one of all others cal c ul a t e d t o ex hibit t o advantage on the sts:ge. Well, therefore, we repeat, has Sir E. Bultver chosen his suli et, and dextrously has he evaded many of the difficulties attendant on it. We had imagined, from a recollection of the period of which he treats, that. Lis play would have been successful from the force of character—from the striking contrasts he would have shown us—from his stirring dialogues be tween the haughty Richelieu and the imbecile Louis, end the still more imbecile Gaston of Orleans, where the most legitimate dramatic effects might have been produced—but instead of this, his play depends for effect on cleverly contrived incident, such as keeps curiosity constantly awake. The plot is occasionally complex, r_it, as to its main features, it may be dis posed,of in a few words. At the time the drama opens, Cardinal Richelieu (Macreads) is in the height of his power. A conspiracy, however, headed by Gaston of Orleans (Diddear), the Count (lc: Baradas ( %Verde), end several subordinates, is in vigorous action against him ; but just at the moment. of its explosien it reaches the ears of the ever-watchful Cardinal, who hopes to counteract it by seizing a certain despatch in which the traitorous designs of the conspirators against the King are fully revealed. Unfortunately, he is disappointed in his expectations, for the des patch is kept from his grasp by lingua (Bennett,) a spy in whom he has trusted, and who has leagued himself with his enemies. All therefore seems at en end with the Cardinal ; his enemies, having failed in their attempt at assassinating him, yet contrive to prejudice the King against him ; and when he makes his ap pearance in the Council Chamber, he is received with that FOI t of frown with which Henry the Eighth received Wolsey; and which gives him assurance that his power has for ever departed from him.- But at this crisis of his fate, when he has voluntarily resigned the helm of State, and submitted with apparent submis sion to his destiny, the despatch is found ; is brought to him by one of his trusty agents ; and is instantly shown to the King, who, reading therein the intentions of the conspirators to depose him, and raise Orleans to the Regency, restores Richelieu to more than his former authority, and gives him ample vengeance on all his enemies. Such is a hasty outline of the plot ; but there is a sort of under-plot, which is made up of the loves, and the vicissitudes consequent thereon, of a young French Nobleman, named Mauprat (Anderson), and Julie do Mortemar (Miss Helen Faucitt), who contribute in no slight degree to hasten the action of the drama. But, as may b• imagined, Its main interest depends on the fortunes of Cardinal Ri c h e li eu. W e care l i tt l e for the subordi nates of th e pl ay . H e i t i s who occup i es our thoughts from th e r i s i ng , to the fdlling of the curtain. In the two first act s Si r E . B u l wer does him exemplary jus tice, and brings out the minute points of his character in a truly dramatic style ; but afterwards the delinea tion becomes languid, and does not revive till the last scene in the fifth act, which as a matter of dis play, is unquestionably the most effective in the drama. One great fault we find with the author is, that he has placed too prominently in the foreground the Cardinal's physical infirmities. Now this is not in accordance with the truth of history, for Riche lieu was a vain, as well as an ambitious man, and would never acknowledge to the advances of age. It was part of his policy to keep tinder the old man, and to parade before the public hit physical, not less than his mental, alertness and energy, though with the King he would occasionally counterfeit the hopeless valetudinarian. The scene, however, where he is represented vainly attempt ing to handle the sword which in his earlier days he had wielded, or fancied he had wielded—with such effect, is true to history ; for Richelieu never forgot his personal achievements (worth nothing by the bye) at Rochelle ; and in one of the Italian campaigns (worth about as much). Maeready played the Cardinal in his most spi rited yet chastest style. It was throughout a classical performance—that is to say, justly conceived, and equa bly executed. To his delivery of one passage, however, and that a most striking one, we must demur. In the pas sage— " The King is weak; whoever the King loves Must rule the King; the lady loves another, That other rules - khe lady—thus w e ' re b a lk e d Of our own proper sway : the King must have o goddess but the State; the State—that's Richelieu!" In this passage, Macready pronounced the words " that's Richelieu," just as if they implied a mere com mon-place matter- of-fact, whereas they are the words of triumph — o f conscious omnipotence—of ambition feel ing itself' on its highest vantage ground ; and, as such, should have been delivered in swelling, exultant tones, with a flashing eye, and statel3 bearing. The following passsage, which produced an electrical effect on the house, was declaimed by Macready in a manner winch it is impo ssible to praise too hi g hly : " Adrien de Mauprat, men have called me cruel-- lam not—l am just-1 found France rent asunder— The rich men despots, and the poor banditti ; Sloth in the mart, and schism within the temple ; Brawls festering to rebellion ; and weak laws Rotting away with ru.t in antique heaths— I have re-created France! and from the ashes Of the old feudal and decrepid carcase Civilization on her luminous wings Soars, plicenix•like, to Jove—What was my art? Genius, some say —some, Fortune—Witchcraft, some— Not so ;—my art was Justice !" Equally effective was Macready's delivery of this striking passage : " The pen is mightier than the sword. Behold The arch-enchanter's wand! Itself a nothing ! But taking sorcery from the master-hand To paralyze the Caesars, and to strike The loud earth breathless—Take away the sword, States eau be saved without it." The house acknowledged the truth and beauty of this sentiment by some of the loudest cheers, thrice repeated, we ever heard. The subjoined passage was not less effectively declaimed by Macready. He is replying, we should premise, to. the Count Baradas, who has been taunting ban with being old and doting : " Irreverent ribbald ! If so, beware the falling ruins ! Hark ! I tell thee, scorner of these whitening hairs, When this snow melteth, there shall come a flood ! Avaunt, my name is Richelieu! I defy thee ! Walk blindfold on ; behind thee stalks the headsman. Hah ! Halt ! How pale he is !—Heaven save my country !" Miss Helen Faucitt played her part with great spirit, though there was occasionally a harshness in her recita tion of those passages which were meant to be pathetic, of which she will do well to rid herself. It is not energy she wants—of this she has plenty ; but her tenderness is apt to appear forced. %Varde made a capital conspirator. We know not that we ever saw him to greater advantage than in the part of the bold yet crafty Baradas. His very voice had a traitorous twang in it. Messrs. Elton and Diddear made as much of those two royal scamps, Louis the Thirteenth, and his brother, Gaston of Orleans, as was possible to be made. On the whole the play was_well, exceedingly well act ed, and was received with much applause. At its close, after Macready had announced its repetition for " every night till further notice," Sir Edward Bulwer was called for, and made his how to the audience, amidst the waving of hats in the pit, and white cambric pocket handkerchiefs in the boxes. With a little judicious curtailment—for there is no denying the fact that the play flags in the second and third acts—we have no doubt that Richelieu will run triumphantly through the season. The house was crowded to suffocation. THE MARKETS i2OUN TRY CORN MARKETS DURING THE WEEi.. VS heat. I Batley. ; Oats. tiV.:a.S. PCT Quarter s, to s. 18. a. jB. t• s.

Saturday a fresh inquest vas held at the Valiant Troopsr, Oxford-street, before Mr. Gell, assisted by Mr. Higgs, on the body of John Boutall, a veterinary-surgeon, aged 52, late of No. 32, North-row, Grosvenor-square. A former inquest was held on the same body last Monday, before Mr. Gell, at the Guinea, North Bruton-mews, when the Jury returned a verdict of " Died by the Visitation of God." The Jury on the present occasion consisted of fiteen new Jurymen and eight of those who sat upon the late inquiry. The room wr.s crowded to suffocation with horse -dealers and livery-stable-keepers residing at the West-end. Mr. CELL addressing the Jury, said that they were ma under rather extraordinary circumstances. On Monday last he heard of the sudden death of the deceased, and issued his warrant for an inquiry respecting it. The result of that inquiry was a verdict of natural death. He had no suspicion of anything contrary, but on Wednesday last he found at his office a long statement sent by a number of gentlemen residing in that neighbourhood, who expressed themselves extremely dissatisfied with the verdict already given, and that they were prepared to prove that deceased had from the fleets of poises). He wrote to those gentle men to say that he did not consider himself bound by any law to open a new inquiry after he had granted his warrant for the burial of deceased, and after his age and the tine of his death were forwarded to the registrars. He advised the gentlemen, therefore, to apply to Lord Chief Justice Denman, as he was Chief Coroner for all England, and a deputation of them did so. The depu tation after this interview told him that the Lord Chief Justice wished to see him at Guildhall, where he was then sitting in his judicial capacity. He waited on his Lord ship, who asked him es !tether there were any precedents for a second inquisition, under similar circumstance s. He ( Mr. Cell) answered that he knew of none, and that nothing like the present circumstances had occurred within his krowledge for the last forty years. His Lord ship said, " I will consult some of my Learned Brethren in the House of Lords upon the matte , -, and in the mean time you ar.. perfectly at liberty, and have my sanction, to else a second inquiry to be made, for if by any chance c ch a case should come before me at the Old Bailey, your r inqui ry . suet verdict wou ld stand come in the way ofjustice. " The lirsult of this con f erence w i th h i s L ordship was t h e pre seeJ. B arrow, sell., surgeon, of D av:es-street, on the previous day, in canjunction with other medical men, opened the body of deceased, and haviner removed the stomach, and tested its contents, he found that when they were acted upon by the proper tests, they produced Prussian blue, which convinced him that deceased must have swallowed a large dose of prussic acid, and that death was caused thereby. Mr. Samuel Gould, who was a witness on the former occasion, since before last Christmas, was book-keeper to deceased, who was a remarkably healthy man, but who of late was extremely distressed on account of pecuniary difficulties. Oa Saturday last, between two and three o'clock, he found deceased lying dead on a bed, in pre mises belonging to him, in Bruton-mews. He again stated that it was his opinion that deceased died of grief. —( On the first examination this witness said that he did not believe the rumours about poison, but that it was his firm conviction that his employer died of a broken heart, in consequence of the ingratitude of persons to whom he had too kindly lent large sums of money.) Wiliam West, of No. 31, South Holton -street, deposed to having found a wine-glass under the bed on which de ceased lay. At the bottom of it was some prussic acid. Mr. Alexander Bartley, of No. 251, Oxford-street, knew deceased for the last twenty-five years, who was very much altered in his temper within the last year. On Saturday week last Mr. Shackell, the livery-stable-keeper, of Ox ford -street, told him that deceased had forged a bill of acceptance on him. Upon this intelligence he (witness) went to deceased's house, but he was told by his son in-law that he had gone away saying, " Good bye, I shall see you no more." Witness then went to Mr. Gould, and from him he learned that deceased was at the George and Blue Boar, whither witness went, and found deceased in a room up stairs, leaning over a table and weep ing bitterly. Witness persuaded him to sit down, and en couraged him by telling him he would get over it, and that money would be got to pay Mr. Shackel. Deceased then confessed to him that he had forged bills to the amount of 2,000/. upon Mr. Richards and Mr. Martin, of Oxford street, on his own son-in-law, and on Mr. James Clarke, and lastly on himself (witness). He said that M. Wee don, a horse-dealer, of Church -street, Blackfriars, had broken his heart, and that he had paid him ( Weedon) in one year the sum of 2,0001. interest, or rather discount, on bills. Decsased added, " I have heard that Weedon is worth 20,0001., if he is, 15,0001. of it belongs, if every man had his own, to John Boutall." Deceased also complaina I that much of his embarrassment arose out lof transactions with a person named Jackson, a money lender, residing at Pimlico. On the morning of the fatal transaction an exe cution was put into deceased's house. Deceased had written a letter to him, in which he stated he could never hold his head up again, .and which concluded with these words, " I pray you look after my poor family when I am gone. Oh, God, lam mad, mad, mad." The Jury, after a moment's consultation, returned the following verdict—" That deceased took poison whilst labouring under temporary mental aberration, produced by pecuniary difficulties. "—The inquiry lasted four hours. HARD TIMES IN NEW ORLEANS.-The Bulletin of the 16th says, the scarcity of money is a sub- ' ject of general remark. Harder times have never perhaps been felt in New Orleans. The cause of this state of things is obvious. The situation of the banks is such as prohibits them from discounting or affording accommoda tion. The suspension of specie payments, forced upon them by the recent crisis, has subjected them to a for feiture of their charters. Until restored to their privileges by the Legislature, th,y arc disabled from extending their circulation. An Act to relieve them from this disability, is now under discussion in the House of representatives ; and the pecuniary distress which now prevails extensively, and is pinching every business man in the community, im peratively calls for immediate action.—New York Paper. STATE OF TRADE.—We have nothing new to add to our Report of last week. Wools, yarns, and wages remain stationary. The demand is dui for the home market. In the shipping trade there is a little more doing. —Leicester Mercury. STRIKE AMONG THE SHIPWRIGHTS OF THE TYNE.--A " strike" has just taken place among the shipwrights of Messrs. T. and W.

The last time he was seen alive was late on the evening of the Bth inst., going up Yorkshire-street, in a state of intoxication. Oti the following day his hat was found near the dam or lodge of Messrs. John Rhodes and Brother's factory. This circumstance occasioned it to be thoroughly searched, but without success. On Thursday last the owners of the factory were prevailed upon to let off the lodge, in order that a stricter examina tion might take place; but this proved as fruitless as the first search. At last it was suggested to examine the corn mon-sewer, into which all the refuse of the town, as well as the water from the factories, runs. The person who undertook this search found the poor man's body in the sewer, near Blackwater-street, at a distance of 200 yards from the lodge, near to which he is supposed to have fallen into the sewer, and otust have been washed down by the water to the lower part of the town. The body presented a most shocking sight when brought out; the face and hands had been almost eaten away by the rats, and the identity of the deceased could only be proved by the dress he wore. —Bolton Free Press.

The report having deplored the death of Peter Caesar Labouchere, Eq., the literal supporter of the Society. concluded with a powerful appeal on behalf of its exhausted funds.

" TO THE EDITOR OF THE.At.r.iii,.'--1) SIR,—As the Corn-law question is nbw.4l-i , 44t... absorbing theme among all parties, I takaiii.6l") to request that you will insert this letter is your valuable columns. As your paper is much read this neighbourhood, I know of 110 better medium t through which to address the farmers, and agricultural population of Monmouthshire, on the effects that the Corn-laws have on the agricultural part of the community. It has been stated by many who are deemed authorities on such matters, that " that part of the community engage d ! in agriculture, and dependent directly and indirectly on agriculture for their subsistence, comprises at least two-thirds of the whole population of the kingdom." And it has been also stated, "that in ordinary sea sons the agriculturists grow enough of corn for . the whole population of the kingdom." Th en suppose we admit there are two-thirds of our popula tion dependent on the soil, and we fix the amount of wheat consumed annually at fifteen millions of quar ters, ten millions of this fifteen millions of quar ters would be consumed by the agriculturist popu lation, and the remainder be disposed of to the ma nufacturer, and those dependent on commerce. If this fifteen millions of quarters be disposed of at forty shillings per quarter, it would produce thirty millions of pounds sterling. What the agriculturists consumed, namely, ten million quarters, would cost them twenty millions sterling, and the sale of the surplus, wouLl produce ten millions. We have taken this in ordinary years when they are supposed to produce enough for the whole population. Now suppose further that with a full crop they could succeed in raising the price to 80s. per quarter, the whole produce would bring 60 millions sterling. The part consumed by toe agriculturists would cost 40 milieus, and the sur plus would bring 20 millions, being an increase of 10 millions in t clue of surplus over and above 40s. per quarter, brought about by the agriculturists imposing a tax on themselves of 20 millions over and above 40s. per quarter, being just the whole value of the surplus at B.)s. per quarter. But, oh say they, " when we have fair crops we sell our wheat for Th'is., 603., or 645. per quarter, as the case may be ; but it is when our crops arc deficient that a e sell for FOs. or 84s, in order to make up the deficiency." Well, if that be the case, let us take the last harvest which is said by some to have fallen short by three millions of quarters. Now, recollect that this three millions of quarters must be deducted from the surplus, and so this year your produce is twelve millions and your surplus two millions. And by raising the price to 80s. as you have succeeded in doing this year, ' you have taxed ten millions of quarters, 40s. per quarter, Cr twenty millions, in order to get forty shillings per quar ter, or Iwo million quarters, or four millions sterling. Is not this folly and cruelty to tl:eir own labour- ; ing population ? But if at any future time they may be ) enabled to produce more corn by way o f surp l us arei could ensure sale of that surplus, than the amount of corn consumed by those directly or indirectly dependant oo agriculture, then, and not till then, will they be hene fi:ed by high prices. But, " do not the landlord, the clergyman, and the farmer of large capital benefit by high prices ?"—thev may. But the labourers can well say to this precious trio, with the frogs in the fable, " what is fun to you is death to us." 'lle Duke of Buckingham and his clique may taunt. the manufacturers with want of feeling towards the poor. But it behoves these occupants of " glass houses" not to throw stones. F or this very year, in order to secure some four or six millions on the sale of surplus they have taxed by the operation of the accursed Corn-laws the poor half-fed, half-elad, ill-requited agricultural labourer, from 60 to 70 per cent. more than he ought to pay for his bread. Hoping you will give this humble emanation, from an humble pen, a place in your columns—it may serve to point a moral, if not adorn a tale, am, Sir, most respectfully yours, Pontypool, March 4, 1839. TESTIS. CRIMINAL COURT.-THURSDAY. OLD COURT. When Mr. Justice Vaughan and Mr. Justice Williams took their seats this morning the prisoners William Berry end Matthew Sutton were placed at the bar to receive judgment. The usual proclamations having been read, Mr. Justice VauonaN put on the black cap and ad- dressed th - 6 prisoners as follows:—" William Berry and Matthew Sutton, you were yesterday tried and convicted, by a very:dispassionate and intelligent jury of your country, i for the crime with which you stood charged ; you, William Berry, for having with violence perfected the crime, and you, Matthew Sutton, for having aided and assisted. Your trial occupied a great number of hours, and the whole dr, cumstances of your case underwent a most painful but ; patient inveetigation. The Jury retired for a con siderable time, and on their return, in obedience to their duty, pronounced a verdict consistent with jus tice and propriety, and which every heart and mind in Court responded to. It is a most serious and atrocious offence of which you have been found guilty, and although the criminal law of late years has undergone a great revision, still this crime is punished by the death of the party committing it. The Legislature of this country has been must anxious to withdraw almost every capital punishment cou,istent with the safety and protection of the public, but thought it unwise and injudicious to withdraw the sentence of death from cases of this description, where they have been clearly and satisfactorily made out. Ex periments were made many years ago, but they all failed, and it was found necessary to return to the old law, otherwise it left the weak and innocent open to the attacks of the strong and guilty, and we should be brought back to barbarism and the violent practices resorted to in uncivilised ages. Although the Jury have recommended you to mercy (which recom mendation shall be forwarded to the proper quarter) o must not rest upon the effect of that int erpos i tion, as u it be only trusting to a broken re e d. U nder all eircumay stances, the kindest service I can render you is, to entreat you to prepare yourselves for the awful change that may await you, and take that assistance which will be afforded you here, in the hope of making your peace with God, as far as you can by repentance and prayer, and endeavour to satisfy your hearts that your crimes and sins may be for given you. All that remains for me now is to pass the sentence of the law upon you, which is, that each of you be taken to the place from whence you came, and thence to the place of execution, and there be hanged by the neck till )on are dead ; and may the Lord have mercy on your guilty souls." The response " amen," was made by Mr. Chiffinch, the senior bailiff of the Court, and the convicts were taken to Newgate. They did not evince the least emotion. NEW COURT. FELONY AND ADULTERY.— William Watson, a journey man tailor, aged 28, was indicted on Thursday for stealing two shirts, two handkerchiefs, a shawl, a snuff box, and a tobacco stopper, the property of James Cleringbold. Mr. CLARKSON stated the case for the prosecution, the facts connected with which he said were peculiar and el:s. tressing. Mr. Cleringbold stated that he liresathNisiv:si.lietilunts);,llt end-road, and is retired from business.

He procured the assistance of a police-otlicer, and went in search of his fugitive wife. After going to her parents he seat to other places. At the hour of midnight he went to the Bull and Mouth Inn, 'and was shown a bed-room, to which " a gentleman and lady" had retired a few - hours before. Th e c h am b er d oor , which was locked in side, was broken open, when his wife jumped mit of bed in her night dreses, and the prisoner lay " snugly tucked up." A search was commenced, when, amo., g other thing:, there were two duplicates relating to shirts found in his wife's pocket. She said, in the prisoner's hearing, that he pledged them. The only property of Ids found in the prisoner's pocket was a snuff-box and a to bacco-st3pper, both of which were valued at fi‘c peixe. Some of the other articles were found in the roorn, Lat they were mixed up with her own apparel.

From the evidence it appeared that the deceased, who was twenty-three years of age, and a str org healthy man, had on Monda y night at ten o'clock gone to sleep in, a cabin in which one of Joyce 'k stoves vr as bu r ,. ing. The cabin was eight feet long, six feet with., and six feet bigh, and had no aperture whatever in it. A t three o'clock in the morning deceased was found in a state of stupor, and died shortly after.

A medical gentleman and several other witness., attributed the unfortunate man's death to the nox t i: vapours given cut by the prepared fuel which was burnir, in the stove. Toe Jury returned a verdict that Malcolm was suffocated by breathing the sulphu r ali d noxious vapour arising from the stove in the cabin in which he was sleeping.
