SUIVINIER ASSIZES. WESTERN CIR CUI T.—Exeter, July 26 and 27. Artsos.—James Bovy was indicted for setting tire to a rick of furze, at Cragford, on the 30th of April, the property of John Stanbury. Mr. Bevan conducted the prosecution ; the prisoner was undefended. From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner came into the prosecutor's service on the 24th of April, and remained six days; he was sent into the fields to pick stones. On the 3d of April the prisoner went to one end of the field, lighted his pipe, sm o k e d , and sang, and whistled; he then knelt down by some furze, and put his hand under it; a snap was acid immediately a ft erwar d s fl ames b urs t out f rom the The pris oner t h en clapped his hands. He was asked furze. , afterwards who set it on fire? He said, " I did it." He was then told he would be transported; he said, That's what did it for; I don't want to stop in this country any longer. I shall have bread for life now; bread for ever'!" The prosecutor said the value of the rick was about 205.; and he admitted that he had offered to settle the matter for 503. Saville was heard to express apprehen, , ions as to his wife having drowned herself, and to say lie was afraid he should get into trouble on her account. The bodies of the unfor tunate woman and her children were discovered on the Wed nesday morning in a kind of spinney, lying between a place called Colwick and Caillkm. From the appearance of the ground it was veryevidefft there had been a struggle between Saville and his wife. From Colwick to Carlton there runs a footpath, and at the foot of a hill to which the path in ques tion leads there is a plantation, and in that plantation the murdered wife and children were found by a man of the name of Swinsc.ie on the morning of Wednesday, being the day after the murder. It appeared this man had gone into the spinney to get something for his rabbits, when he saw the little children as he thought asleep. Upon further inspection they were found, to have had their throats cut, and about four yards farther off was the body of the unfor tunate mother, with her throat also dreadfully cut, so that, in the opinion of the medical man, death must have been instantaneous. In the woman's hand was a razor, but so loosely held that it evidently must have been placed there. There was a train of congealed blood from the woman to the children. The bodies were put into a cart and carried to a barn at Colwick. The prisoner was seen on the morning of Tuesday going in the direction of the plantation with his wife and children, carrying the youngest child in his arms; they were seen also sitting on a bank together within twenty yards of the spot where the bodies were found. He was seen coming out of the plantation alone, looking timidly about him, very embarrassed, and his face of an ashy paleness, and altogether there was a chain of as strong circumstantial evi dence as we have ever known. The surgeon deposed to the nature of the wounds, which were of such a nature that death must have been instanta neous. When the prisoner's lodgings were searched a bottle of arsenic was found concealed in his trunk. On examining his clothes only slight traces of blood were observable. The Learned Judge havinkstimnied up with great minute ness and exactitude, the jury almost immediately returned a verdict of Guilty, and the Learned Judge, in a very im pressive manner, passed the sentence of the law upon him, that he be hung. Joseph Roys, aged 32, was found Guilty of a rape upon the body of Louisa Brammer, aged about 17, and sentenced to be transported for life. went round the farm-yard at nine o'clock; with a lighted lantern. - Among the places they examined and locked Alp was the neat-house, in which were seven cows and the pony. All being safe, the prisoner was told to go to bed, and it was supposed he did so, but as his way lay up a ladder over the back-house, quite apart from the family, no one could say when or whether he did as he was desired. In the course of ab Alt a quarter of an hour the prosecutor was alarmed by the reflection of a strong light, and it was soon discovered that the neat-house was in flames, the fire having evidently originated among a quantity of straw which had been igled up in a temporary roof over the stock. In this building there was no hole or open window on either side,, and as there was a very vigilant watch dog chained up close to it. the prose eutor had, as he thought, good reason for imagining that the outrage had not been committed by Any stranger. As soon as the family were disturbed they sought for - the pri soner, whom they found in his bed-room, quite dressed, though it was with difficulty that his young master could persuade him to descend into the yard. When there, how ever, lie assisted to remove the property which was most exposed to the fire. On the following morning. he was taken into custody. When the prisoner was about to fall asleep a youth named Dean was thrust into the • lock-up by the police, and he had hardly been there above ten minutes before he asked the prisoner what he was there Apr, to which he replied, " Why, what are yin in for?" " Oh," said the intruder, " I'm in for a fire at Schole; what are you for?" " Why," said the prisoner, " I am here for the Mendleshain fire." The stranger then asked whether they had a clear case against him, to which he said " No, there was no one coming up against him." " How did you do it?" interrogated the witness. In answer to this the prisoner, according to the testimony of to-day, said that he had gone to bed, and having come down directly afterwards, had gone to the neat-house, when lie set fire to the straw with a bundle of lingers, • On cross-exarninition this witness admitted that he had been convicted of felony two years ago, at the early age of seventeen, and sentenced to nine months' imprisonment. Since then he had no regular employment, but got it as lie could All this treachery, he said, he did without the slightest hope, expectation, or promise of reward, but purely from a desire to assist the police. Mr. DASENT having addressed the jury on behalf of the pris mer, The Learned JunGo proceeded to sum up the case. It' the jury attached credit to the last witness, Dean, there was no doubt an ample confession • but, in his opinion, they wou ld do well if they viewed smelt testimony with great suspicion and distrust. It was a very discreditable trick, a paltry con trivance, and one which ought not to be encouraged. If they discarded that part of the case the question would still re main whether on the e v id ence , w hi c h was f ree from any taint, they could arrive at a conclusion of the prisoner's guilt. The Learned Judge then went into the whole details of the .case with great minuteness, and at the close of his observe,- tions the jury retired to consider their verdict. A SCENE.—COMMITMENT OF A CLERGYMAN FOR CONTEMPT OF COURT. During the progress of this trial Mr. Baron Atamusas,' rose in great agitation, and said, holding some papers in hand, " I have received some letters from a clergyman named Maberley, who says lie has some materials in liis hands that would be of advantage to these people. In Gocl', name, then, let him produce them. What am Ito do? Ani I to go out of Court to speak to this person, who lives at the Admiral's Head? Have I not enough to do here in dispos ing of this heavy calendar? I know what turn such mat ters sometimes take. If I take no notice of these letters, assertions and statements may be made not warranted by fact. (With great energy)—l wish him to come forward in open Court! That. is the proper place for him, His conduct is very indecent and improper. Mr. DASENT said he hoped his Lordship did 'not refer to the case of his client. Mr. Baron ALDERSON—No, the application has nothing to do with the case. On the retirement of the jury for the purpose of consider s ing their verdict, and before a new arraignment was taken, it was intimated to his Lordship that the Rev. Gentleman woe in attendance. [lt may be as well to state here that Mr. Moberly is con. spicuous in this and the adjoining counties for his vehement and uncompromising opposition to the new poor-law.] - The Rev. Gentleman's presence being made known to the Learned Judge, the following dialogue took place between them : Mr. Baron ALDERSON—YOU, I believe, Sir, sent me some letters. In answer to your application. I can only say i have nothing to do with the attendance of the witnesses to whom von allude; but every facility shall be afforded to you on behalf of the prisoner for whom you interest yourself; as far as the Court is concerned.

DUBLIN, JULY 26.—The weather, which had been all yes terday and last night wet and cheerless, cleared up yester lay, and at an early hour the leading thoroughfares to the Castle were well tilled by crowds of respectable persons anxious to witness th ) entrance and reception of the sue ..essor of Lord de Grey. At half-past ten the streets were tined by the troops in garrison, extending from Cork-hill to the railway station at Westland-row. The scene at this time was rather animated, aided in some measure by the music of the respective military bands and peals of joy bells from the cathedrals of Christ Church and St. Patrick's. The prome nade jetty at Kingstown, which was selected as the place of debarcation, was thronged from an early hour with number, of the most respectable of our citizens. The harbour itself presented a most animated appearance, the revenue cruisers having alt their flags flying and their yards manned. A pas 3age, enclosed by ropes and lined by a detachment of the RoyaMarines, was formed from the jetty to the railway ter- , minus, to ensure an unobstructed passage for his Lordship and suite, who, it was arranged, should proceed to town by the Dublin and Kingstown Railway. A guard ofhonour, consist ing of the light company of the 16th Regiment, and the band of the same corps were in attendance for the purpose of assisting in the ceremonial of his Lordship's reception. About ten o'clock the Merlin, Admiralty steamer, the vessel chosen for the conveyance of Lord Heytesbury to our shores, arrived at the entrance to the harbour; but the hour fixed for the recep tion of his Lordship at. Kingstowa by the authorities being eleven o'clock, the interval was occupied in cruising about the bay, thus affording to his Lordship an opportunity of viewing its almost unrivalled scenery under extremely fa vourable circumstances. Shortly before eleven o'clock the Merlin entered the harbour under a salute from the guns of the Shamrock and Kite revenue cruisers, and immediately came to her moorings alongside the jetty, amid the enthusi astic cheering of the assembled multitude. The Earl of Donoughmore and Mr. Frederick Shaw, the two Privy Coun cillors appointed to receive his Lordship, immediately- pro ceeded on board. They were accompanied by the Solicitor- General, the Dean of Ossory, Colonel Bowles, and several of the aides-de-camp and officers of the household, and, having ,:ongratulated Lord Heytesbury on his safe arrival, signified .o his Lordship that the Lords Justices were ready to receive dm at the Castle. His Lordship then landed, attended by the above-mentioned personages ; and, amid the continued leering of the vast crowd which had assembled, proceeded o the railway station, where a special train was in waiting to convey him and the cortege by which he was accompanied, :o Dublin. His Lordship appeared to be in the enjoyment most excellent health, and acknowledged, in the most ourteous and most dignified manner, the cordial greetings which were tendered to him as he passed along. At a quarter past eleven o'clock the train started from Kingstown, and reached Westland-row in nine minutes. At the various points along the line where a glimpse of the train could be caught, groups of the country people had assembled, loudly cheering as it passed. Upon his arrival at Westland-row, his Lordship was received with repeated acclamation by a numerous body of nobility, gentry, and citizens, and was met by the Lord Mayor, accompanied by the Aldermen and Town-Councillors of the borough, who congratulated his Lordship upon his appointment and safe arrival, and tendered the keys of the city to him, which were graciously returned. In Westland-row a detachment of the Ist Royal Dragoons was stationed, who received his Lordship with the usual military honours, and formed his escort to the Castle. His Lordship having entered his car riage, accompanied by the Earl of Donoughmore and Mr. Frederick Shaw, proceeded to the Castle by Leinster-street, Nassau-street, Grafton-street, College-green, Dame-street, &c., which were lined with the troops lying in garrison, who presented arms, the bands playing " God save the Queen," as his Lordship's carriage passed their respective corps. The procession was headed by the Commander of the garrison and staff; and Lord Heytesbury's carriages were followed by a considerable number of those belonging to the noblemen and gentlemen subsequently presented to his Lordship at the Castle. The streets through which the procession passed were densely thronged, and the manifestations of applause from the respectably-dressed portion of the populace were very frequent, intermingled, however, by counter cheers for repeal and Mr. O'Connell. Upon his arrival at the Castle, Lord Heytesbury was re ceived by the Gentleman Usher, and conducted to the Pre sence Chamber, where their Excellencies the Lords Justices received his Lordship, sitting covered under the canopy as Chief Governors.

DIVISION OF PROFITS. The steady success and increasing prosperity of the Society has enabled the Directors, at the last annual investigation, to declare a second Bonus, averaging 60 per cent. on the amounts invested on each Policy effected on the Profit scale.

Thomash e jury prisoner Guilty.—Sentence deferred. e wail was indi c t e d f ur th e ma ns l aug ht er o f evident t that t .4 14 1:: Francis Perry, on the 24th of March last, at Tiverton, and James Winsbarrow was indicted as an accessory. Mr. Ball conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. :owe defended Winsbarrow, and Mr. Phinn appeared fur tclan d. It appeared that on Sunday evening, the 24th of March, the two prisoners were drinking at the Half-moon public house at Tiverton, when a man of the name of Tozer came in and asked fir lodgings, but could not procure any. He then went out with a vie* or inquiring at other places. The prisoners followed him and dodged him about for a consider able time. At length they met Perry, and some little con- versation took place. Acland said they were constables and would see Tozer out of the town, and then Acland struck Perry with his fist and kno c ked him down, and he then kicked him several times. Perry lay quite still. He was, afterwards taken to.the:Red Lion public-house, where h e di e d in the course of the night. The jury found Acland Guilty, and Winsbarrow Not Guilty. Acland was then sentenced to three months' imprisonment. ARSON.--- W. Rapsey was indicted for setting fire to a rick of hay, the property of John Hook, at Honiton. Mr. Poulden conducted the case for the prosecution, and ifr. Cox de&nded the prisoner. This case depended entirely upon ci rcums t an ti a l evidence. NORFOLK 'CIRCUIT—Ipswich, July 26. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron ALDERSON.) James Lankester, aged 30, was indicted for wilf u lly an d maliciously setting fire to a stack of wheat, the property of George Paine, of Great Barton, in the month of June last. Mr. Gurdon and Mr. Sanders prosecuted the prisoner, who was not represented by counsel. The prosecutor is a farmer occupying land under Sir Henry Bambury, near Bury St. Edmund's. The prisoner is a native of Palgrave, in this county, and seems to have got his living by travelling round the country on foot, hawking trifling wares, and singing, or rather reciting scraps of ballads, songs, and hymns, the burden of which, from a specimen which he gave to the jury in his defence, would seem to have been " the blessings., of cheap bread," the " want of work " in general, and the particular lack of it on the songster's part. These songs and ballads, as well as his cross-examination and speech to the jury, which were voluble and fluent in the extreme, were strongly inte r la r ded w ith a ll us i ons t o t h e Deity. In fact his mind, like his wallets, of which he had at least six, of all shapes and sizes, was filled with the most extraordinary and heterogeneous collection of articles and " unconsidered trifles." This personage was seen on the day of the fire, going on the road towards th e wheat-stack of the prosecutor, and at a distance of about half a mile from it, at about two o'clock. The flames were first discovered at four o'clock, and various witnesses proved that he was seen later than that on the same day just beyond the stack, and going through Barton, towards Bury, where he ordered a fresh supply of his bills and songs, and was not long afterwards taken into custody on suspicion of this charge, an old lucifer match box having been found near the stack and in the road. On being taken to a public-house, the constables searched him. In one of his bags was a quantity of very dry grass; in another, a few broken matches; in a third, some old rags and paper; and in a fourth were three phials, each of which contained some liquid. These latter, he said, were his medi cine bottles, and the unsuspecting " man of the law," de ceived by his coolness and readiness, gave them back to him. As soon as he got them he obtained leave to retire to the privy, and after that time the phials were not to be seen, though he was handcuffed, and the most rigorous search was made for them, in order that their contents might be sub• jetted to analysation. There being no sufficient evidence to warrant his commitment for this offence, he was summarily dealt with as a rogue and vagabond, and consigned to Bury gaol for a month. There he soon fell into conversation, during the intervals of rest from hard labour on the tread mill, with two prisoners; one of whom, by name Copeman, now deposed to his having asked him what he came there for, to which he replied, "for pretending to be deaf and dumb," upon which, said the witness, " he told me that he had been up that day to the hall on an examination about a fire." I asked " whose?" He said, " Mr. Payne's, of Barton." I asked " how he did it?" He s a id h e p ut a ball into the stack with his hand, up t 8 his elbow, and that the ball was as big as a cauliflower, He said he set fire to the stack at ON o'clock in the day-time; that he had some lucifers for sale in boxes, and some in his pocket, in a paper; that he set fire to the stack with a match, and had got three-quarters of a mile off when he saw the fire burn. When he told me I said I should tell Mr. Orridge, and lie cried. Mr. Orridge was the gaoler; he is dead now. Another witness from the gaol, named Richard Sayer, de posed as follows :—I come from the gaol. I am there for stealing a piece of iron. I went to prison on the 26th of December last. I remember the prisoner coming. I was at work with him soon after on the wheel. Copeman was there. The : prisoner said, " I suppose they mean to hang me for this job." I asked what job? He said for that stack which was burnt at Barton. I told him they would not do that. On another day I said to him, as he was resting on the box, " Jem, will you tell the truth of what I ask you?" He said he would if he could. I asked the names of those balls he put into the stack. He said they were " Tallybangers." When I cam e down I asked him how far he had put it in. He said he runned" his arm up to the elbow. He said he had been four turns through Barton when the fire burst out, but he said afterwards that, he was three-quarters of a mile off, and that he went to Bury and ordered his bills to be printed. I neverheard anything about the fire before. By the JuDGF,—Mr. Peirson, the keeper of the wheel, over heard and asked me what it was, and I told him. I know that a man who gave evidence at the last assizes out of the gaol has been pardoned since, but I have no thought of that. If it was my own father or brother I should discover him, for I don't think.fires ought to be. John Peirson.—l am the under-keeper. I saw the prisoner crying one morning, and I asked Sayer, who was close to him, why he was crying. He said about a stack that he had set on fire at Barton. Lankester said nothing. Afterwards I heard Sayer ask Lankester how far he had put his arm into the stack, and he said up to the elbow, and that he had left a ball in it. There'was more conversation, but I could not col-. lect it. Copeman was on the wheel. The prisoner then made a lengthened speech to the jury, complaining of the laxity of the discipline adopted by Mr. Peirson, which he said was muck worse than anything he had ever seen in any other gaol, and contending that he was the victim of a conspiracy between the three last witnesses, who would swear anything to ruin a poor man, "as innocent as the babe at the breast." It appeared that in April the prosecutor had a rick of hay at Ottery Moorfield, near Honiton. It was burnt on the night of the lfith of April, about 8 o'clock in the evening. On that night, about 7 o'clock, the prisoner went to a house in Honiton and bought a box of lucifer-matches. At about 20 minutes past 10 o'clock he went into the same shop ; they were talking about the fire, and the prisoner said, "D— it, it burnt well, by God." The prisoner was intoxi cated on both occasions of his going to the shop. About half-past 7 o'clock that evening the prisoner was seen to jump up behind the Forester coach as it was going out of Honiton. The coach would go somewhere near the spot where the rick was. In about 10 minutes after the alarm of fire the prisoner was again seen in Honiton ; and was heard to say that it was not ad— of odds if he was on fire. Just as the fire was first seen the prisoner was observed sitting in a hedge two fields off, with his face to wards the fire. The prisoner was seen to go down Ottery field-lane immediately after the Forester coach passed the top of the lane. The prisoner was heard that evening to say, " He was sorry for Hook, though he had been a rogue to him, and it was a pity that lucifer-matches should have been invented." The prisoner was apprehended two days after wards near his own house. He was asked if he had pur chased any lucifers, and he said he had, but that he had lost them out of his pocket. The question at length became one almost of seconds as to the times at which the prisoner was seen in different places. Mr. Cox addressed the jury with great force for the prisoner, pointing out the various improbabilities of the case. Mr. Jastice WIGHTMAM having summed up, the jury Ac quitted the prisoner. In the Civil Court the business has all been of the most un interesting description. There has not been a single case to justify a report. MIDLAND ClRCUlT.—Nottingham, July 26. The Right Hon. Lord Denman and Mr. Justice Coltman arrived in this town yesterday afternoon, and, having opened the commission for the county and county of the town, at about five o'clock, proceeded to attend Divine service at St. P - eter's Church. Their Lordships took their seats in the county-hall at ten o'clock this day—the Lord Chief Justice presiding in the Crown Court, and Mr. Justice Coltman on the Civil Side. The calendar presented 25 cases and 30 prisoners for trial. One man, William Saville, stood charged upon four indict ments for murder, the sufferers being his wife and three children ; and four with a burglary in the dwelling-house of George Clarke, at Sutton-in-Ashfield, and rape therein (see infra.) There were also two cases of cutting with intent to murder, and one each of manslaughter, rape, arson, assault, stealing from the person, and horse-stealing, and two of sheep stealing. On the civil side there were 12 causes for trial for the county, of which four were undefended, two are for special juries appointed for to-morrow morning, and two are indict ments against the parish of Hickling. One of the others was a writ of inquiry, of which the facts were uninteresting, wherein the jury have returned a verdict for 2001. In the town there is one cause, "Whitmore and others v. Hideout" (the bank case), which is a remanet from the last assizes. CROWN COURT.—(Before Lord DENMAN.) William Boot, aged 18, James Smith, aged 19, Peter Alford, aged 20,, and James Wild, aged 23, were indicted for a bur glary in the night of the 28th of March last, in the dwelling house of• George Clark, at Sutton-in-Ashfield. The prisoner Boots pleaded guilty. Mr. Willmore conducted the prosecution ; the prisoners were undefended. It appeared that on the night in question, down to half past eleven o'clock, the four prisoners were drinking together at the Black Bull public-house at Sutton. They then went thence to have "a set," which meant in pursuit of game. They, however, changed their intention, and deterntined upon going instead to commit a burglary in the house of the poor man, Clarke, vho was on his death-bed, and in a state wholly unfit to offer resistance, and the next day ceased to live. They broke open the door with a hatchet, and took 6d. or 7d. from the pock e t o f Clarke which was all the money in the cot. One propo se d to take away some clothes also ; but the others objected, and this was not done. The prisoner Alford then committed a crime of another sort towards Emma Samom, a poor woman 57 years of age, and Boot or Smith did so also, one of the others holding down the deceased man Clarke by his wrists the while. This occured at about twelve o'clock at night. When the men came up to the house, a voice was heard outside to say, "George, George ! open the door; I want a light." When they got in they complained that Emma Sausom had not brought them a light, when she said she wouldn't, and the poor old man was unable to move. They asked the poor man for money, and the woman said, " How can you expect suc h a poor man to have any money?" The woman had very many years before borne a child to Clarke; but he afterwards married another woman, and, after her death, she served him in the capacities of housekeeper and nurse, but did not reside in the house. On the night in question she undressed and went to the same bed with Clarke, but this was only because he was on the point of death and could not be left, and there was no other bed or room in the house. One of the men asked for a pistol, and the poor woman, who had been subject to paralytic strokes, was much frightened and screamed loudly, crying out that she should die, or to that effect; but they stopped her mouth with their hands. Clarke told them to take all, but go away. The wo man, on examination by a surgeon a week afterwards, was found to be very badly bruised thThewere i jury. ndicted, and found all Guilty of the b ur glary, for which alone ey His LORDSHIP having observed strongly upon the nature of so brutal an outrage as that of which they had been con victed, committed in the house of a sick man in their own condition of life, unable to resist, and at the point of death, and remarked that he was aware also, by the perusal of the disgusting story told in the depositions in the other case, which were before him, of the other atrocity of which they had been so profligately gu n,. sentenced them to be sever ally transported for the term of 15 years. CIVIL SlDE. — (Before Mr. Justice COLTMAN.) WILD (SUING IN FORMA PAUPERTS) V. FISHER AND OTHERS. The undefended and some wholly uninteresting cases having been first disposed of, the above-named cause was tried, and occupied the Court until its rising at about five. It was an action of tresipass for turning the plaintiff and plaintiff's case, represented her son, and all belonging to them, out of a cottage at Cope landand Mr. White- Butler. hu liar.t, under the direction of the defendants.

During the pro g ress of .. .this ceremonial, the ordnance at th e P ar k . fired a salute of 21 gnus, which, at the conclusion, was an swered by three volleys from the infantry drawn up in Dame street and College-green.

ADDITIONAL MEMBERS FOR MIDDLESEX.—It iS understood that in consequence of the disfranchisement of the borough of Sudbury, attempts are being made by a large number of the influential electors of the county of Middlesex to obtain the consent of her Majesty's Government to Middlesex having two additional Mem bers. The metropolitan county at present only returns two Members, hole th' counties o' Surrey, Kent, &c., re turn each four. The city of London. and boroughs of Marylebone, Finsbury, and Tower Hamlets, with the city of Westinin , ter, certainly each return two Members, but so also do the boroughs of Southwark, Lambeth, Greenwich, &c., while a large and influential portion of West Middlesex is nearly unrepresented. It is, there fore, proposed that the parishes of Kensington, Chelsea, Hammel smith, Fulham, and Chiswick, which contain a population of upwards of 140,000 inhabitants, shall be formed into a borough, to return two Members to Par liament. Another suggestion is, that Middlesex shall, like Surrey, be divided into two divisions—East Middle sex and West Middlesex, each to return two Members; but the latter suggestion does not appear to meet with the support of a large body of the inhabitants of the parishes above-named, who will in that case, by the right of voting being still confined to freeholders only, be disfranchised. Meetings are, we understand, about to be called at Kensington, Chelsea, Hammersmith, Ful ham, and Chiswick, to adopt measures to obtain a char ter as a borough without delay.—Observer. SUPERANNUATIONS IN THE BANK OF ENGLAND. — A number of septuagenarian employes at the Bank of England, we learn, have received intimation that they are to be shelved forthwith, receiving the .customary retired allowance, ac cording to their length of service. These superannuation, coupled with the new arlangements necessitated by Sir R. Peel's New Bank Charter Bill, it is said, will occasion tha employment of 50 additional clerks. FATAL PRIZE FIGHT.--DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT OF A FATHER.—On Tuesday an inquest was held at Northamp ton, on the body of Frederick Fitzhugh, who lost his life in a pugilistic encounter with a man named Cumberpatch, com monly known in that part, of the country as Dan Patch. The fight took place on the day previously, near Merry's Close. It appeared from the evidence adduced that Mr. Smyth, a magistrate, interfered to prevent the fight, but without success, having been pelted away by the mob. The men fought for an hour; once they left off, somebody having said that the police were coming. Fitzhugh at that time went away, and remained about six or seven minutes. He then returned, the fight was renewed, and they fought about four rounds more. In the last round the head of deceased struck against the ground, and he could not get up. He was removed and seated against the railings. From thence he was about to be taken to the infirmary, when a body of men came up and• took him away by force. The father of the de ceased was present, but did not interfere; in fact, he scolded his wife for being in trouble about her son going to tight, and linked arm-in-arm with others to form the ring. Several of the witnesses swore that the father of the deceased had said, "that he would bring home his son a corpse sooner than he should give in." The deceased was taken to the Milkmaid public-house, in Kettering-road, after the fight was over ; he was then fast dying, and expired shortly after wards. The father, on being called upon by the Coroner to say what he had to offer in explanation of his disgraceful con duct, declared that he had been against his son's fighting, but refused to sign the written statement to this effect. It did not appear that the men had had any quarrel, but that they had fought for 10s. a-side, in order to decide which was the better man. The Coroner, in summing up, told the jury that they would have to consider whether the fight had been a prize-fight or not; if it had been, the seconders, and all who were present, would be participating in the offence. If parties were engaged in an illegal transaction, and death ensued, the 'offence was murder: if, therefore, they should find that the deceased came to his death by blows received from Cumberpatch in a prize-fight, they would return a verdict of murder against him, and against the backers and other delendants, as principals in the second degree. They accordingly- returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against Daniel Cumberpatch, Samuel Braines, Cooper, and Joseph Page (who are not in custody), and John Fitzbu'gh— the father Charles Coles, Edward Lent on , an d Henry King (who are in eusi;o4-)"7,--..A.liridfjed from the Northampton Mercury The Learned JUDGEPOinted out to the jury the various facts on which the guilt or innocence of the man at the bar must turn, and left it to them to say whether they, as rea sonable men, could entertain any doubt of his guilt. If so, they should acquit him ; but if they gave any credit to the testimony of the three last witnesses, they could scarcely avoid coming to the conclusion that he was not accused without foundation. The jury immediately returned a verdict of Guilty.—Sen tence deferred. Edward Botwright, aged 22, was charged with firing a barn and outbuildings at Sotterley, in the occupation of Hannah Watling, on the Ist of June; and John Spilling was charged as an accessory before the fact. Robert Watling, the son of the prosecutrix—Was awoke by his wife at twelve o'clock at night with an alarm of " Fire !" He jumped up directly, and, dressing himself, hur ried down stairs to the barn, which he found in flames. He and the men who were there let out the stock. While so engaged he stumbled on a letter, which was then read. My mother had a quantity of buildings and stock destroyed by this fire. The prisoner worked for me when a boy for two years, and as a man for four. He was discharged for dis honesty. I remember on the 29th of May finding one of my mother's beasts dead. It had been strangled by a rope tied round its neck to another which was nearly dead. Edward Fitzgerald, a superintendent of police, searched the prisoner's lodgings, and found i n hi s room a:half sheet of paper, which corresponded with that on which the letter was written. It had these few lines on it : " Mr. Watling—Sir, this come as a warning for you and the rest of your neighbOurs and the policeman. You may think." . -- _ _ __ July 27. CROWN SIDS, William .Saville, aged twenty-nine, was charged with the , in th wilful murder of his wife and thr ee children. Mr. Wildman and Mr. Mellor conducted the ca se f or the prosecution ; and Mr. Flower the defence.. The prisoner is a f r ame-wo and rk-knitter, e living at new Rad ford, near Nottingham ; month of May, l o d ge d at the house of a man named. Sutton, his wife and three children being at that time in the workhouse. They came out the Monday preceding the day of the murder (Tuesday). Saville had formed an attachment to a young female named Tate, and the only motive that suggested itself to the mind tor :he commission of the crime with which he was charged w iq, that he was desirous of ridding himself of his wife, WI) stood in his way, and his children, whom he looked ti ain the light of incumbrances. When the poor woman wail her three unfortunate infants (for the age of the oldest Wer AP .alter tier resolution= said he was not was not more than seven, the youngest little more t h an three) left the workhouse, she said she would •go and see if she could Lind her husband, and on the following morn i ng Saville, his wife, -and the three children, were see n t oge th er in Nottingham. In the afternoon of the same d a y, an d at various times on Tuesday, he was seen a l one; and in ac counting for the absence of his wife and children, w as h ear d to say he had lost sight of them near a street knave he eMwanas ners-street. With respect to the young woman Tate, it may be observed there wiS n against her char ac t er, f or when othin4 s m h a e r b ri e e c d a , m a e n d ac u q p u t a m i n findingted with he S The prisone r , l',and children, s h e broke off the intimacy . that was growing up between th em. married, but tti young woraall an l w eredz ! "Jr he was not married, and wa s the father of the children, he was equally bound to support her and them." On the Tuesday evening .' e The prisoner can write, and I believe both the letters are in his hand. I also found a seal, which fits to the seal on the letter found by Mr. Watling. Charles Nagle—When the prisoner was apprehended he made so much resistance that I was obliged to knock him down. luring the assizes of Limerick, Judge Ball had the painful intelligence brought to him of the death of his dat - 4ter, e. very interesting girl, in her seventeenth year, at Flor6co. , • James Bullen—Saw the prisoner at 'his lodgings the night of the fire. Billy Brown was in the road, near the gate. They went away, and the prisoner returned again at eleven o'clock. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty. By the direction of the Learned JUDGE, Spilling was ac quitted on the statement of the case. In addition to the above, the same prisoners were simi larly indicted in respect of another fire in their neighbour hood, but no evidence was offered afainst either of them. David Jackson, aged 18, was indicted for setting fire to a barn, the property of John Cracknell, at Redlingfield, on the 3d ofJune last. The jury found him Guilty, but they accompanied their verdict with a strong recommendation to mercy. Mr. Baron ALDERSON then, in very impressive terms, ad • monished the lad of the enormity of his guilt, which had arisen purely from the idle conversation in which he had been engaged with his companions. In order, however, to carry out the views of the jury, which certainly squared with his own views, he should only sentence him to fifteen years' transportation, and care would be taken that he should be dealt with in the Penitentiary. James Smith, aged 16, was charged with having set fire to a house and farm buildings, the property of S. Eastall, on the Ist of April. Mr. Prendergast appeared for the prosecutor, and Mr. Dasent for the prisoner. In this case also the prosecutor and prisoner stood in rela tion of master and servant, the former being a large farmer at Mendlesham. During the time that the prisoner had been in his service, he had beep several times found fault with by his master. He was first accused of having in his possession some stolen chickens ; then he was scolded for giving the pony a quantity of wheatmeal, for which his master threat ened to have him up before Dr. Day, a neighbouring magis trate. To this he quietly repli e d, "T ake ' me up and be d—d," but nothing came of it; an at last, a few days before the fire, his master accused him of having killed one of his pigs. Notwithstanding these repeated causes of separation, he sy44 kept on and allowed to discharge his 4%141 dgtias. Among these he used to get up quite early, and for that purpose he ivas supplied by his mistress with lucifer matches. On the night iu question, he and his master, according to custom, The Rev. Mr. Maberley—l only think, as the poor prisoners have no opportunity of bringing witnesses, some opportunity should be afforded them by the Court, as far as regards the granting of subpoenas. lam willing to undertake the ex pence, if you will only appoint the trial to take place to morrow. But I would not bring the witnesses yesterday, nor would I bring them to-day, neither will I bring them to morrow, and pay all the expenses out of my pocket, when I don't know at the same ti me w h en the trial is to come on. If you will appoint the trial for to-morrow, I will bring the witnesses at my own expense. Mr. Baron ALDERSON-4 can make no conditions, Sir. The Rev. Mr. Maberley (with great energy)—l want a fair trial for the men. Mr. Baron ALDERSON—Yes, and they shall have a fair trial whilst I preside here—as fair a trial as it will be in my power to afford. The Rev. Mr. "Maberley (striking his hand upon the wit. ness-box)—l shall insist upon the men having a fair trial. I demand it. I demand that the trial shall be fixed for to Morrow. Mr. Baron Atoomtsos (addressing a javelin-man)—Take Mr. Maberley into custody. The Rev. Mr. Maberley—No, no; I protest against this— Mr. Baron ALDERSON—Take him into custody immediately. The Rev. Mr. Maberley—You may do as you like. Mr. Baron ALDEnsoN—Remove him from Court. The Rev. Mr. Maberly—You shall not; I say you shall hear me, my Lord. The officer here laid his hand on the Reverend Gentleman, and requested him to leave the Court; to which he replied, " You sent for me, my Lord, and I came in consequence of a message requiring my attendance. I will be heard." Mr. Baron ALDERsort—Take hint into custody im mediately. The officer having at length persuaded the excited gen tleman to retire from the Court, they quitted it together, but in a few moments his Lordship desired that he should be discharged from custody, and added, " The trial shall be appointed for to. morrow; that is, if the prisoner Barley wishes it to be so. Send for him, that I may hear from him his own wishes." Frederick Burley was then placed in the dock, and in an swer to his Lordship's inquiry, intimated that it was his wish that his trral might take place to-morrow morning, and also that Mr. Maberley might be allowed to interfere on his behalf. Mr. Baron ALDERSON—Very well. If it is your desire it shall be so. Your trial will, therefore, come on at the sitting of the Court to-morrow. Thus ended the " affair," which served not a little to vary the proceedings of the assizes. (Before Mr. Justice WILLtAms,) Henry Serjeant, aged 21. and Jarrett liwiland, aged 53, were indicted for having set fire to a stack of haulm, a cow house, and barn, the property of Thomas Barnes, and acquitted.

ImronTANT INrcia.toKN,l-: EltilM THE Pacine.—The Vindictive, 50, Captain J. Toup Nicolas, arrived at Ports mouth on Friday, from South America and the Pacific, having on board Mr. 'Pritchard, the British Consul for - Tahiti, who had been forcibly expelled from that island, after having first been arrested and thrown into prison by the French authorities there. The British Consul had not in any way committed the slightest offence against the usurpers of Queen Poinar6's authority except affording shelter to the deposed Queen in the hour of her affliction previous to her seeking it on board one of her Majesty's ships. He was released from prison, after several days' im prisonment, at the intervention of Commander Gordon of her Majesty's steamer Cormorant, on the condition that he was not to be landed again on either of the Society Islands, H e was not permitted to proceed to his home, but put on board the steamer at once, after she had got outside the harbour, leaving his wif e an d property b ehind him. The Cormorant sailed from Tahiti to Valparasio, where she arrived on the 28th of April, At Valparasio Mr. Pritchard embarked on board the Vindictive, which sailed thence on the Ist of May for Rio de Janeiro and England, The Hampshire Telegraph in adverting to this subject, states ; ‘, We have always thought, and the arrival of this ship confirms us in our opinion, that it was a most fortunate cir cumstance for the peace of England and France, that the Dublin, 50, was the only ship present when Du Petit Thouars deposed the Queen Pomare. Had the Vindictive been there also the impudent act would not have been attempted, - or it would have been resisted, and no doubt in such a way as would have done honour to the British flag, It is now clear, front some correspondence that has been laid before. us, that Thouars is a gasconading Frenchman; that he has exceeded his authority, that 'lie has admitted he has done so, that he has told most abominable lies, and to conceal them" he pur posely delayed English dispatches committed to his care, to be fo"rwarded on his own word of honour with his own, and that he has in every way obeyed the wishes of his em ployers, the Nile() fie Joinville and Monsieur Thiers (the organs of Jenne &awe). It appears that Captain Nicolas. in April, having a knowledge that the Frenchman in autho rity at Tahiti (Mons. D'Aubigny) had put Mr. l Aitchard in confinement, refused either to salute Admiral Thouars or visit him, unless he, in the presence of witnesses, or in writing, disavowed the act; and also insisted that Du Petit Thouars should express his regret that this D'Aubiguy bad insulted the British standard by trampling on it, and glorying ,he had put it w h ere i t ought to be—in time dirt After some hesitation these concessions were granted, and the salute was tired and visit made, accompanied by Cap tain Lord G. Paulet and Commander Hamond, the latter of whom acted as a sort of second between the combss-- tants. On this and the return visit, interesting convers,ah, o , took place, the precis of which has been submitted to. our Government, and also to the King of the French, aithenti cated in such a manner that any contrary account. given h,:r the French p ar t y w ill at once be disbelieved. Europe it is known that Thouars had dispossessed the, Queen of her power, property, and authority in the Pacing. Ile declared to Captain Nicolas he had only put her ;side (roe metre), but that she was not eeprfrecl of her as Queen, excepting as regarded her foreign relation;;. Thouars admitted to Captain Nicolas he had done t,,0 much, and France for the prasent must be satisfied wi.t:n the Marquesas. Ile was sure his Government would - not sanction his acts. In England we are hardly aware d the force the French can concentrate in the Pacific. nev have two 50-gun ships in the Rio Plate, three of the same force in China, three at Otaheite and West Coast c:.1: America, and about six 22-gun corvettes. This force MO( have an object which the protection of French traffic does not require." The Vindictive has brought home a large freight of ta;, c i e and jewels, to the value o f nearly a million an d a half of dollars. She went into harbour on Saturday, whore she will be dismantled and paid off, and brought forward for recommission immediately.

Frederick Barley, aged 18, and John Durant, aged 17, were charged with firing two stacks, the property of Ambrose Candler, at Stowmarket, on the afternoon of Sunday, the 19th of May. Mr. Sergeant Byles and Mr. Prendergast appeared for the prosecution. Neither of the prisoners were defended by counsel. The evidence of the prosecutor abundantly proved that the stacks in question were fired about half-past three o'clock in the afternoon, and totally consumed. From the description given of the premises, it appeared that they were situated near to the town of Stowmarket, and close by a plantation, and near to this place the two prisoners and one Williams were seen loitering and talking at intervals during the Sun day afternoon, and just before and after the fire broke out. In addition to this testimony, Williams, having been ad mitted Queen's evidence, was called, and he swore that he was engaged in watching Borley while he perpetrated the offence. Another young man; named Diaper, deposed to having re tired at half-past three to the plantation, for a certain pur pose, when he saw Borley approaching the stacks. Sus pecting that he was after something wrong, the witness climbed into a fir tree, whence he could see the prisoner and the stacks. While in this situation, he distinctly saw him take something out of his right-hand waistcoat pocket, which ignited on being applied to his left thumb-nail and drawn across it. He then saw the smoke rise clearly from his hand, and in a second or so observed him apply his right baud to one of the stacks. Ai soon as he had fired that one he did the same to the two others, and then ran away towards Williams, who was watching him from an adjoining close. This most important witness said that he then went home anktold several persons what he had seen, after which he went back to the fire. As he was retracing his steps, he met Borley, who 'ogged his elbow and said, " Don't be in a hurry, ba ! (boy . Let it get a hold first." This hint, however, the witness dloclined to act upon, for he went at once to fetch the engine, and did his best to put out the fire. Besides these witnesses, a variety of respectable people deposed to their having seen Borley, and Durant, and AVilliams about the prosecutor's yard, and proved several expressions and declarations on the part of Borley, which, if true, went far to show that he was guilty, and was of course present at the moment the stack was tired. At the close of the case for the prosecution, The Rev. Mr. Matairley rose, and, addressing his Lordship; begged to apologise for the occurrence of yesterday. He did not moan to offend his Lordship ; indeed, lie could not, for he came to ask a favour. Mr. Baron ALDERSON—Pray don't say another word, Sir, on that subject. If you say so, I will believe yon at once. Do not revert to what is past. What can Ido now for you? Mr. Maberley--My Lord, I wish these witnesses to be ex. amined by your Lordship for Borley, against whom 1 believe, there is a conspiracy between Diaper and Goodwin, Mr. Baron Alderson then called the witnesses whose names had been handed up to him by the Rev, Gentleman, an t i w h o deposed to the following facts:— George Chamberlayne-1 knew Diaper, lie told mo be fore he went up to the magist ra t es that he was at home when when the fire broke out, washi ng hi s hands, and that he was not there till the stack was half burnt. 'William Ball—l ass, g to the fire arid met Diaper,. who asked me where it was.

We can, therefore, only present the following as our analys7; f the cases which have come before us: of which. there appear to be 17 committed by children or young persons under the age of 20, and 1:3 by persons above that age—namely, / arising front inadequate employment, 13 from ina!icions feel ing towards individuals, I I from actual mischief and without any premeditated or criminal intention, 1 only by a party travelling ahout .1 country as a vagrant, and 4 for whielt we cannot discovsr any cairse or motive whatever.

Edward . was placed at the bar, charged with aiding and assisting in the murdssUnhnortmaajewielaappatatapzeie the 7th- of January - lafr""' Mr. Scorr, Q C., stated the ease. He said the prisoner at the bar stood indicted for the murder of John Kennedy, the father of a large family. On the night in question some of the family went to the police-station, and on that occasion the prisoner at the bar was arrested, and taken to the house; and on that evening all the family denied knowing any of the party. In a few days after, when the father's life was doubtful, his children came forward, and named the partiea who deprived him of life. There are two others included in the indictment, but they have not as yet been made amenable to justice. • The wife, tour suns, and a d aug h ter of the deceased, were examined for the prosecution. It appeared from their evi dence that deceased met his death in consequence of wounds inflicted with a spade-handle by the prisoner, assisted by two other persons named Maher and. Howell. The most extraordinary contradiction existed between the informations of the witnesses and their evidence at the trial. The cue for the Crown having closed, Mr.,Hassatm rose and said, it now became his duty to offer such observations as occurred to him during the progress of this trial. The prisoner at the bar was a man of unimpeach -441e-charade; and one whom he would prove to be the last man to commit such a crime as that imputed to him. The jury, no doubt, would ask what conbl be the reason fur the prisoner's committing such an, act, when they had it in evi (knee that the Neilles and Kennedys lived on the best terms. —(The Learned Counsel here animadverted at some length on the discrepancy between the informationa of the witnesses and - what - they Lad Sworn there that day.) Contrast them, he said,with what they h a d sworn, and 'he was sure the jury would not believe one word they had spoken, for it was an after-thought of them in tacking the prisoner's name into their informations.

It was .not - long, till head constable Burke arrived, when he arrested Maher and Holed!.

'William Poe, Esq., spoke of the prisoner as a man of ex cellent character. • -• Mr. Sudsy; replied on the part of the Crown to the evi (fence produced for .the prisoner. If the prisoner at the bar was not the person wl,O committed tb murder, it must be a • mistake on the part of the witnesses as to his identification, fur it appears they really conceived he was of the party. The Learned Judge (Baron Hictramts) summed up the evidence. .After remarking on the barbarity of the murder. his Lordship remarked that it was his Impression that the Kennedys (lid not go there that (lay corrupted to swear what was not the truth ; but at-the same time he conceived they were labouring under a mistake as to the identity of the man ; they swore. no doubt, what they really and conscientiously believ(al to be the case ; but then there was a probability, or - as to their being mistaken in the man. The Learited thou began to read over the entire evidence, and animadverted thereon as he proceeded. The jury, after a short deliberation, came into 0 7ourt with a verdict of guilty agaiust the prisoner. .
