Ind if you had been locked up in one of their solitary cells as I have been, without seeing any person but the one who brought you the scanty pittance afforded, you would not have a friend to assist you. By your verdict — (Here the prisoner began to sob, and paused to see what effect her eloquence had on the jury)—l may be sent back to those solitary and dismal cells, there, perhaps, to remain during the whole inclement season of the winter, where the silence that reigns , and the tears that fall, are enough to malt the very flags on which one stands. Perhaps, Gentlemen, some of you may be brought to that. You may be overtaken by misfortune, and yielding to temptation, perhaps to drink, the greatest temptation of all, you may not be able to pay the fine imposed upon yeu, and you may be dragged to gaol. It is strange, more than passing strange, to think that the just laws of the land should be so much strained. The witnesses against ine are not infallible, and by the laws of God and man I demand a favourable v erdict. This really clever speech having been concluded, Lord Chief Justice TINDAL summed up the evidence, observing that he did not know that the prisoner had any occasion to regret that she had not the assistance of any other person, as she had shown a great deal of dexterity in conducting her own case. There were only two questions for the jury to decide—first, whether they were satisfied as to the identity of the property; and next, whether they were equally satisfied with the evi dence as to the identity of the prisoner. The jury turned round for a second or two, and found the prisoner Guilty. Lord Chief Justice TINDAL said that the prisoner had. been found guilty of the offence with which she had been charged, upon evidence which left no doubt whatever on his mind that she had stolen the candlestick ; and the sentence of the Court, therefore, was, that she should be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for twelve calendar months.

[orning ... 26 minutes after 7 I Evening ... S minutes after 9. ---- - in the same page of history which shall consign to contempt the canting, one sided, Sabbatical, wailing of the Bishop of LONDON over cheap fares of third-class railroad travelling on Sundays ; and to scorn, the bigoted and unchristian fulminations of the Bishop of EXETER against all other creeds and shades of religious pro fessions, but his own. Not less vigorous was the hit which Mr. GIBSON dealt at the sensitiveness of those pro-corn-law landlords who are so marvel lously jealdus of our national honour, and so gene rously indifferent-to the responsibilities of any war we may plunge into to vindicate it, but the genuine mo tive of whose readiness for war is to be qualified, as he observed, by the-reflection that war is the mother of high agricultural prices. We need hardly com mend, again, the cutting irony with which he con trasted the spirited rivalry of landowners in feeding their " stalled oxen," to a degree of obesity which made it necessary for them to be assisted in getting on their legs, and their indifference to the craving pangs of famished peasants, who cannot use their limbs from the very langour of physical inanity and hunger. Mr. COBDEN'S speech was one of those manly efforts of 'a remarkably compact and ready mind, stored with all information on the question to the elucidation of which its best powers are directed, that admit of no descriptive analysis, which would not tend to impair their effect. We earnestly recommend it to the careful perusal of every reader. It must gratify men of all parties, from its vigour and simplicity, unless we ex cept, indeed, the writer of an article in the Morn ing Post, of which pleasant mention was made by the Hon. Gentleman, in tracing the philosophy of incendiarism to the misapprehensions of a psuedo political economy. We suppose that the public will, by next session, confirm the judgments and services of this crusade against monopoly, by a verdict equiva lent to complete success; a well-merited reward for so much oonsistencl and perseverance as the League, under such able• leaders, have shown throughout all Fortunes. `Madrid papers of the 31st ult. have been received, but they do not bring later intelligence than that which appeaxed ysterday in a telegraphic dispatch. More arrests had taken place, and a conspiracy was said to have been discovered at Barcelona among the troops, the Aject,of which was to seize on the fort of Montjuich, and that several officers and under-officers have been arrested and imprisoned as being implicated in the affair. The following is the latest intelligence from Gib raltar, and is stated to be official : " CaunavranjuLy 28.—The Chancellor of the Consulate and all Our countrymen have retired from Tangiers, with the consent of the local authorities. The Albion was sent on the 27th to Tangiers, with an officer, to take charge of the squadron in the roads, under the title of Commodore. " All the Consuls have quitted Tangiers. The English Vice-Consul has returned there. The arrival of Mr. DRUMMOND HAY is hourly expected." Madrid Bourse, July 31.—Three per Cents., 271 at 60 days ; Five por Cents., 191 at 60 days. The close of the French Chambers has given M. GUIZOT some relief from the attacks of Members re specting the Otaheite affair, but none from the press. Most of the journals continue their rage and fury against England, as if France had sustained some grievous insult from us. They are not even satisfied with the result of the court-martial on Lieut. GRAY. Nothing, indeed, will satisfy the insane writers in these journals but war, or the utter humiliation of England. A determined attack was prepared against M. GUIZOT, at the sitting on Monday, which was to have been commenced by M. BERHYER, supported by BILLAULT, but the impetuosity of M. DE LA ROCHEJACQUELIN defeated their object. M. GUIZOT took advantage of his indiscretion, and gave such an answer that no further questions could be put with any degree of propriety. " I shall hold here," said he, " the same language I have held in the other Chamber. Allusion has just been made to a question which is, indeed, pending between the two Governments. There are in it conflioting facts and rights which must be cleared up and made to agree before they be discussed in this House. This question must be treated and solved between the two Governments. Such is what I hive to do at this moment; 1 shall do it, having due respect to the rules and forms which preside over friendly international relations, and maintaining the rights, honour, and dignity of the agents of France, and of her naval officers in parti cular. When the question shall have been solved, I shall have to justify before the Chamber both what the Government shall have done and the motives for which it shall have thus acted. At present I should be wanting in every duty to the KING and the coun try if I said more on the subject." The National thus raves on the subject : " The situation of England towards France, with re gard to Otaheite, is openly hostile. At Morocco she imposes on us her imperious will ; at St. Petersburgh she threatens us : we everywhere find her usual jealousy and perfidy, and this is precisely the moment chosen to compromise the King by an act of courtesy to which malevolence may give a serious bearing, Does not the Minister fear that France will consider this as an insult to all the sentiments she feels at this inopportune visit ? Is this the time for the French Government to play the part of a devoted friend to England, when perhaps the future may contain a striking and approaching rupture hetween the two States ? The Government has already sacrified enough to that falsehood which it calls ' entente cordiale.' It is time in our opinion, even in the interest of the dynasty itself, which the Minister pretends to serve, that no one should be put in peril but himself ; it is high time that M. Guizot puts a stop to his continual policy of humiliation." _ . Various reports were current at Paris of the course which the French Government proposed to pursue relative to this troublesome affair. Among others, it was said, that M. Guizor had forwarded a corn munication to Lord ABERDEEN, in which he admits that the conduct of Captain D'AUBIGNY was rather hasty, and perhaps harsh, in sending Mr. PRITCHARD to prison, and keeping him from communicating with his family and friends ; but he considers him perfectly justified in the circumstances in sending Mr. PRITCHARD out of the Society Islands. Viewing the whole bearings of the question, M GUIZOT comes to the conclusion that, although Capt. D'Aunicriv's conduct may merit a reprimand, it was not so far beyond the limits of his duty as to warrant the Government either in dismissing him from the service, or even in withdrawing him from his post in the Pacific. The Journal des Debate makes the following re marks on the result of the Court-martial held on Lieu tenant GRAY : _ . "This judgment, if it shows anything, proves that the English Government, far from encouraging its agents in their irregularitiea t does all in its power to prevent such acts, and takes every lil'eets to repress them. We shall not bestow any praisi . bpon the English Court-martial, for this would be out of place, as it has done only its duty by rendering justice) but, under existing circum stances, there may be perhaps some merit even in per forming a duty. The sentence has already been warmly attacked in England. It is pretended there that the officer was sacrificed to' political feelings, and that the severe reprimand inflicted upon him was a concession made to the remonstrances of France. It is clear, how ever, that some one must be responsible, and this the English Government is wel l aware of. So long as treaties exist, all are bound to execute them with fide lity, and the precautions taken by the British Govern ment to guarantee the exercise of the right of search from all cause of irritation and dispute, ought to be accepted by us in the same spirit of conciliation and harmony." The papers bring no fresh intelligence from Tan giers. It would appear that the French squadron under the Prince DB . .TOINVILLE was still in the Bay of Cadiz on the 28th ult.

ACCOUCHEMENT OF HER MAJESTY. The following bulletin of her Majesty's health was issued this morning:— Windsor Castle, August 8, 1844, " Eight, A.M. " The Queen has slept perfectly well. " Her Majesty and the infant Prince are going on quite favourably." (Signed) " JAMES CLARK, M.D. " CHARLES LOCOCK, M.D. " ROBERT FERGUSON, M.D." CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.) The Lord Chancellor sat to-day in Lincoln's Inn Hall, for the purpose of hearing any matters that might press, and also to give judgment in the case of Mr. Dy-ce Sombre. The Court, before eleven o'clock, the time at which it was stated his Lordship would take his seat, was extremely crowded. Among those present, we no ticed the Earl St. Vincent, Mr. Quintin Dick, Mr. Bailie Cochrane, and several other persons of distinction. IN THE MATTER 03' MR. DYCE SOMBRE. The LORD CHANCELLOR, on taking his seat, pro ceeded to give judgment in this case. It had been ar gued at great length, and he had given it that attention which the importance of the subject demanded. It was a question with respect to which he had felt much anxiety, not only on account of its in terest to the individual concerned, but as his de cision affected the proceedings of the Court below. Two questions had been mainly raised on the present occasion, and very properly argued. The first question was, whether Mr. D. Sombre was ever of un sound mind, and whether the finding of the jury could be supported by the evidence ; and the second was, whether, supposing him to be of unsound mind at that period, he had since recovered, and was at that moment able:to manage his own affairs. These were the two main questions. With respect to the first question, it was material to advert to it, in consequence of some observations made by counsel. For this purpose, it would be necessary to review the previous history of this gentleman. He was of Asiatic origin, with a mixture of European blood in his veins, his father being a German, and connected by marriage with the Begum Somroo4 He was brought up in her zennana, and became hpr favourite. His education was conducted a few miles from the residence of the Begum, under the superintendence of a Mr. Fisher, a chaplain to the East India Company. He lived there four years, and was during that time intimately con versant with European manners, customs, and literature. He (the Lord Chancellor) had conversed with Mr. Dyce Sombre, and found that, although he had hesitation in his manner, he had profited by the instruction he had received from Mr. Fisher. Such was the history of Mr. Dyce Sombre till he became of mature age, when he was entrusted by the Begum with the management of her affairs, and on her death he removed to Calcutta , she having left him the whole of her property. Mr. Dyce Sombre came to Europe in 1838, and after having passed some time in England he went to the Continent. He returned to England in 1840, and in that year be married Mrs. Dyce Sombre and became acquainted with European society. He must, however, say on the other side, that it was quite elear that none of the prejudices existing among Asiatics could give rise to such feel ings of jealousy as had been evinced by Mr. Dyce Sombre. It was not for the Court to say any thing with respect to the prudence of the connec tion. That was no question before it ; but soon after his marriage Mr. Dyce Sombre expressed himself dissatisfied with Mrs. Dyce Sombre's going out to parties even attended by her father, if unattended by himself. He left London alone, and went to Vienna ; she expected him to return soon, but he did not do so. She wrote him a letter of the most affectionate character and that brought him back, and she again accepted him as her husband. After some time disputes took place with regard to the education of their children. It had been agreed that the boys should be educated as Catholics, and that the girls should receive a Protestant education. Mr. Dyce Sombre insisted on another form, which was, that should there be no male descendants, the girls should be educated in the Catholic religion. This broke off the connection. Mr. Dyce Sombre ex pressed himself in the strongest terms, and sent a chal lenge to Earl St. Vincent, his father-in-law. Two days afterwards he sent a letter expressing his contrition in the most poignant terms. Shortly after this they w(nt abroad. They went first to Brussels, and Mrs. Dyce Sombre became there extremely ill, and continued to be so for eight weeks, and all that time Mr. Dyce Sombre behaved with the utmost kindness. He seemed most devotedly attached to his home. They returned to London, and went to the Clarendon Hotel. Up to the month of April Mrs. Dyce Sombre discovered nothing leading her to suppose that there was any infirmity of mind in her husband. In the month of April they left, to visit Geneva. His Lord ship then went, at considerable length, into the domestic history of the petitioner, and instanced many circumstances which we have already given during the arguments, to show the state of Mr. Dyce Sombre's mind. His Lord ship also , read voluminous extracts from the affidavit of Mrs. Dyce Sombre, and the reports of the medical men, the latter of whom unanimously expressed their belief that the petitioner WILS of unsound mind. After 2. careful analysis of the arguments that had taken place, his Lordship concluded by stating that he felt it impossible to supersede the commission. After some short discussion the petition was ordered to stand over, in order that the parties might consider what should be done with respect to the future treat ment of the nnfortunate gentleman. The remaining proceedings of the Court were totally levoid of interest. HOME CIRCUIT.-(THIS DAY.) (BY EXPRESS.) RUSSELL V. LORD GEORGE BENTINCK. GUILDFORD, AuG. 8. This case was tried this morning, before Mr. Baron PARKE and a Special Jury. The plaintiff called Mr. Day, Mr. Hill, and Mr. Gully ; and during the ex amination of the latter gentleman, the case for the plaintiff broke down ; when the jury returned a verdict for the defendant. The trial concluded shortly before twelve o'clock. UNION-HALL.—(THIS DAY.) Benjamin Rogers, Alfred Andrews, Charles Thoi pe, John Edw ards, Fowler, were brought before Mr. 'Trail) , witii creating a great riot at the r Chartist Hall, 1151 Blackfriars-road, and violently charged assaulting Mr. Knighton the owner of the premises. It appeared that Mr. Knightoa had a lease of the premises, and had agreed to let the large room to the Chartists fur 4s. a week. for lectures to be delivered on the five points of the Charter ; but the society had greatly increased, and Mr. Knighton had demanded an advanced rent, and that there was now a law suit pending. Last night, the defendants had called a Chartist meeting to be held in the room ; but the complainant refused to admit them and closed the doors. The doors were broken open by the defendants, who proceeded to destroy the furniture in the room, and beat and assaulted Mr. Knighton in a violent manner. Mr. TRAILL said he understood this to be an old grievance, but they were all acting illegally, and two of the defendants had already been bound over. The Ma gistrate ordered Andrews and Edwards to find bail in 501. to keep the peace for six months each ; Fowler was fined 10s., and the other four defendants were committed to the sessions for destroying the furniture and assault.

There are no arrivals to-day with late news of interest from any quarter, except the usual continental mails. The disposition of the Zollverein States to carry the exclusive principle further may be presumed to have been in no way checked by the rejection of the really liberal offer made on their behalf; a short time since, to the Govern ment of the United States, the extent of which may be understood by the following extract of a New York com munication recently come to hand . "By this we see that the Customs Union sacrifice 45,540 dollars more of revenue on tobacco imported from the United States, than we do on our total importations of their manu factures. Our exports to the Customs Union are nearly twice the value of our imports, and the reduced duties on inerchandise received from this country must nett a loss of revenue greatly exceeding ours. Several agents have been sent to Europe, at a great expense, for the ex press purpose of opening markets for our great staple,. tobacco, and to prevail upon the different Govern ments to admit it at reduced rates of duties. Our Minister to Austria, Mr. Wheaton, with the aid of these agents, had actually succeeded, after a great deal of negotia tion, in perfecting a treaty of reciprocity, which our Go vernment refuses to ratify. The treaty was disposed of in our Senate very summarily, and in a manner that reflects but little credit upon those intrusted with the regulation of our foreign trade. We had it in our power to open an immense trade with the Zollverein, which represents 27 millions of people. The Germans are tired of the monopoly so long enjoyed by the manufacturers of Great Britain, and would gladly take our manufactures of cotton twist, yarn, &c., to an immense amount, provided we took a fair quantity of their manufac tures. The manufacturers of this country, through the acts of their high tariff senators, have lost an immense market for their goods, who by their adherence to the most short-sighted policy have refused to accept a treaty that would do more to extend and build up our domestic manufactures than all the tariffs ever con:eived or adopted. Our legislators do not see the future effect of any great measure ; their mental vision does not extend beyond the limits of their individual profession, and every future advantage is sacrificed to the present object, viz., political popularity. Racidial tariffites would not give up a tittle of their "hobby, even though the object for which they are aiming could be obtained more speedily by so doing. They believe that nothing in the world but a ,high protective tariff will ever permanently establish our manufactures." Rather a large business continues to be transacted in the public securities, and although there is a fuller supply of stock than for some time past, the general public comes in steadily to make small purchases. At present the quotations are rather flat. Consols realise 994 to 994 for Money and Account. Exchequer Bills are 755. to 775. premium. The New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. realise 1014 to 1014 ; the Reduced 1024 to 1021 ; and the Three per Cents. 994 to par.

The Lords met at Half-past Four o'clock, when several Bills brought up from the Commons were agreed to, and others were hurried through the first, second, or third reading. The House adjourned at a Quarter-past Seven. The Commons met at Twelve o'clock, when Sir ROBERT PEEL gave notice, that on this day he should move that the House adjourn till Saturday, when he would propose that the House should ad journ to some future day. This announcement evi dently refers to the decision of the Judges on the Irish State Trials. Sir J. GRAHAM subsequently said that Sir R. PEEL would make the announcement on Friday. A brief discussion took place relative to the contest between France and Morocco, and the affair of Mr. PRITCHARD, but it led to no result. The Govern ment, we think wisely, gave no information. They must be guided by the course of events, and at pre tent events are so dubious:that no statesman could give any satisfactory explanation. • The report of the Roman Catholic Penal Repeal Bill was received, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time this day at three o'clock. The Insolvent Debtors Bill was read a third time and passed. Sir J. GRAHAM obtained leave to bring in a Bill for the better regulation of medical practice through out the United Kingdom. The House adjourned at Eight o'clock. In utter disregard of all the funereal laments of the Morning Herald, which has, over and over again, announced to its readers the fact of the Anti-Corn law League's demise—affecting, even, with a Phari saical affectation of sympathy (worthy of the Bishop of LONDON himself), to celebrate its obsequies—this idomitable bAy is still alive and in the flesh. It still survives in all the vigour of its organisation, to shock the conventional prudery of our Contemporary's polities by the liberal tone of its principles, and its open addiction to the scandalous facilities of free-trad ing! What will be thought, in Shoe-lane, of the li cense which Mr. COBDEN allows himself in Covent garden Theatre, in toying with such disreputable topics as political economy, and in irreverently insisting on the duty of increasing the number of mouths fed, as prior and paramount to that of devising new churches to be built ; we dare not trust ourselves to anticipate. Enough for us, that the League, last night, held its four-and-twentieth meeting, being the last for the season, in the noble edifice whose walls have been so often thronged by thousands of eager auditors of both sexes, assembled to hear the views of the League developed and illustrated ; and perhaps on no former occasion were greater numbers ever congregated at these remarkable reunions, with more impressive effect. For the interesting details connected with the composition and aspect of the meeting, and its im portant proceedings, we must refer the reader to the careful report we have given in another part of our impression. No one can peruse that report with out the conviction that the power of the League— whether for good or evil—has become an enormous one. If this conviction should operate, as we think it almost certainly will do, to prompt the public at large to a serious examination of the causes which can have given birth to so formidable a creation—this " Earth-born Myrmidon," as we may well term it, from its connection with the soil—the 1, eague—u ill have accomplished the most important end and the most legitimate object of its existence. It will have aroused that spirit of inquiry, and ensured that elimination of truth to which it has devoted its marvellous energies, its untiring industry, and its still unfailing means. The ultimate and not distant result will doubtless be, to secure the concurrence of the nation and the fiat of the Legislature in favour of the views it has so forcibly advocated and so widely diffused. Mr. Cc. WILSON, the Chairman, aptly illustrated these three points—the energy, the unwearied exertions, and the increasing influence of the League—by showing that in the interval which had elapsed since its last public meeting, it had been addressing itself, almost exclusively, to the important object of watching and stimulating the electoral registration. He showed that their able agents had been dispatched for this purpose to no less than 140 boroughs, " in which they thought there was a reason able expectation that an impression might be made," prior to the advent of a general Parliamentary election. And he instanced the City of London and the Southern Division of the county of Lancaster as localities in which these efforts had been already attended with gratifying indications of success Seeing that the House of Commons, as at presen constituted, presents, according to the observation of Mr. Vir.r.mas, on a former occasion, no re. flection of the public mind on this question of corn-law monopoly, he justly argued that it devolved upon the Council of the League to adopt all possible measures that might prepare the electoral body, in due time, for a wise and discriminating exercise of their franchise in return ing, when the occasion should offer, such representa tives only as would carry out the two main ob jects of abolishing the corn-law restrictions in parti cular, and of establishing a system of free trade in general. The principal speeches of the evening were those of Mr. M. GIBSON, M.P. (whose improvement, in all respects, of matter and manner, forces itself upon our observation with every fresh address which he de livers), and Mr. COBDZN, M.P. Mr. GIBSON rallied the Protection people very happily on the magniloquent failures of the British Agricultural Protection So ciecty, and the still more unfortunate break down of the Council of the Society for the Protection of British Agriculture. He contrasted their progress of retrogression with the advance of the League; and the backwardness of their supporters with the fervour that had induced upwards of 1,200 freeholders of Northamptonshire, supporters of the League, to sign a requisition to Mr. COBDEN to come among than to discuss these monopoly questions in an open- air meeting. Bat no proposition was enforced with More vigour or effect by Mr. GinsoN than that which we ourselves have always desired to keep before the public in its true light—namely, that the relief and supply of physical wants must precede all attempts to establish any extensive and efficacious system of moral instruction or religious education. All experience of human nature—all the deductions of common sense —show that this is an immutable truth. The mind is in no condition to be disciplined, or informed, or expanded, whilst the physical machine is suffering under privation, and dis ease, and all their consequent derangements. Now laws which make bread artificially dear are at the very root of these evils of physical disorganisation. That the landowner, whose exorbitant rentals are identified with the maintenance of monopoly restric tions, or the importation of cheap grown corn of foreign g w,yi should keep up the scale of their incomes; i an imperative statute, required, that the'poor, whose health of body and consequent powers of intellect are dependent on an adequate and economic supply of wholesome bread, should be kept down to a minimum, insufficient, proportion of the first necessary of human subsistence, and abandoned in the mean time to the misery, the suffering and feebleness, and moral degradation and torpor, which are the inevit- able adjuncts of such privations. In this fact consists the first and greatest of the many crimes chargeable on the existing corn-laws. But this is the solemn lesson which the League (whether in a rough or an accep table manner—a tone of conciliation or a language of defiance—no matter) has persistedin teaching, by the common confession of its enemies and its friends. The lesson is one worthy to be written in letters of gold MANCE AND MOROCCO. The following is acopy of a letter received at Lloyd's from their agent at Gibraltar, dated Aug. 1, 1844 : " Sir.—The only novelty which has transpired is the report of the expected dispatches from our own Chargé d'Affaires, Mr. Drummond Hay, dated Morocco, 26th ult., when ho was actively negotiating with the Em peror, through his Imperial Majesty's Minister, Ben Rez, which news our Governor considers to augur favourably for the realization of his hopes, that all differences will be amicably settled ; but I , apprehend that the public are of opinion that the existing condition of affairs is such, as not to exclude all apprehension, and, if the negotiations, however successful, be tardy, it is thought that the French Admiral may not be in duced to continue to delay hostilties; indeed, a general rumour prevails here, but upon what grounds I am unable to find out, that .n a day or two coercive measures will be adopted by his Royal Highness Prince Joinville, who is already at Tangiers with a part of his forces. Everything remained quiet yesterday in that town, consuls afloat, and European population retired, but numerous armed tribes had congregated under the walls and in the neighbourhood. "Nothing can be more critical than the actual posi tion of affairs. The British Admiral, in the Formidable, remains in our bay with the Caledonia ' three-decker ; whilst at Tangiers are the Warspite and Albion, under Commodore Lockyer. On the part of the Spaniards their brigade is ready at Tarifa and Algesiras, and 1,000 cavalry are daily expected in our immediate neighbour hood from Madrid, to join the African expedition. Their movements will, however, wholly depend on the French, without whom it is supposed they will not act. (Signed) " J. L. CO WELL. " To William Dobson, Esq., Secretary." DUTCH AND FLANDERS MAIL. THE HAGUE, AUG.4.—Our accounts from India for the second half of April, inform us that pirates have again appeared in various places, for instance in the Molucca Seas. Off Ternate a native vessel was attacked by five pirates, which, however, were repulsed with loss. In the Straits of Sands forty pirates had been seen, which were supposed to come from the north-east coast of Sumatra. One of the accounts says, that the pirates of Mangindano intended to collect their whole force, con sisting of about two hundred vessels (among which was an European ship which the had captured), and to as semble near Celebres, in order to take vengeance for the defeat they sustained last year, and even to do their utmost to get possession of the steamer which has done them so much damage. Captain F. A. d'Aguino, com manding the Portuguese ship Margarida, has been found guilty by the Council of Justice, at Batavia, of having carried on slave-trade, and has been condemned to. fiv years' imprisonment, and to twenty years' banishment from the Dutch East-India possession. THE HAGUE, AUG. 4.—This morning the agreeable news was circulated here, and soon afterwards confirmed, that her Royal Highness the Hereditary Grand Duchess of Saxe Weimar-Eisenach, only daughter of their Ma jesties the King and Queen of the Netherlands, was safely delivered of a Prince on the night of the 31st of July. The news came with extraordinary rapidity, and was received yesterday evening at nine o'clock by the Royal Family. Her Royal Highness and the young Prince are doing well. THE HAGUE, AUG. s.—The Queen arrived here the day before yesterday from Soetsdyk, coming by a special train by way of Utrecht and Amsterdam. Their Royal Highnesses Prince and Princess Frede rick of the Netherlands arrived here from Berlin yester day evening. BERLIN, Ana. s.—The journals of this city, and the principal commercial cities of the kingdom, contain long articles respecting the measures adopted by the Govern 'Debt against Prussion ships, by way of reprisal, to the great augmentation of the duties on Belgian iron im ported into the States of the German Customs Union. The decision of the Government on this occasion is generally approved. Lieut.-General Count d'Hane de Steenhuyse, the King's Aide-de-camp, set out yesterday, by the railway, fur Germany, in order to congratulate the King of Prussia, in the name of the King of the Belgians, on his late happy escape from assassination. BRUSSELS, Ana. 6.—The brig Jean Van Eyck is to leave the port of Bruges to-day. It had a hundred settlers on board, whom it is to convey to the island of Saint Catherine, in Brazil.

WEDNESDAY, THREE O'CLOCK, P.H.—The nomi nation for candidates for this borough took place this morning, and, as usual in all manufacturing towns, the voice of the people was decidedly in favour of those great principles of free-trade of which Mr. Rawson is the actual representative in this borough. At an early hour large bodies of workmen, employed on my lord's and other Tory gentlemen's estates, were marched into the town, for the purpose of swelling the numbers of the friends of monopoly. At nine o'clock the two candi dates and their respective friends arrived on the hustings, and were received with the usual amount of groaning, cheering, hissing, and other popular demonstrations. 'l'. Badger, Esq., a Conservative magistrate, then came forward, and proposed Mr. Benbow as a fit and proper person to represent them in Parliament. He did so be cause he was a thorough Conservative, a supporter of Church and State. and an opponent of the Anti. Corn-law movement. Captain Bennet, seconded the nomination of Mr. Benbow. Charles Twamley, Esq., in an able free trade speech, proposed M. Rawson. The Rev. John Palmer seconded the nomination ; after which Mr. Ben bow addressed the assembly, merely recapitulating the topics set forth in his address. Mr. Rawson next pre sented himself, and after some slight interruption, he was listened to with marked attention. The show of hands was declared to be in favour of Wm. Rawson, Esq. A poll was then demanded on the part of Mr. Benbow, which commences to-morrow (this day). MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE RIVE R.—YeStE rdaymorn ing, between two and three o'clock, as a number of fishing smacks, laden with oysters, were coming up the river, when off Bow-creek, owing to some mismanagement on the part of the crew, one of the vessels, named the Mary Ann, of Barking, ran foul of another, and in attempting to remedy the mishap, the rope attached to a heavy block, used for the purpose of hoisting the mainsail of the Mary Ann, gave way, and the block falling on the head of one of the crew, named Edwin Stevenson, who was at the time standing on the side of the vessel, struck him with such force as to knock him overboard, and before any assistance could be rendered, the poor fellow was drowned. So sudden was the accident, that it was almost impossible to have saved deceased, as, after being knocked overboard, he sunk, and did not again rise to the surface of the water, although a good swimmer. The body has not yet been found. Deceased was, we are in formed, a sober and industrious man of his class, and has, we are sorry to find, left a wife and two infant children to mourn his loss. - THE BODMIN MURDER.--.-BODMIN, TUESDAY.— Matthew Weeks, who was convicted here on Friday last of the wilful murder of Charlotte Dimond, has since his convic tion made a full confession of his guilt. He declares that it was not a premeditated act, but that when on the moors she stated to him that she was fonder of Prout than of him, and he then says that upon her telling him this he was seized with a sudden impulse that he would never allow her to have any 'other than himself, and he then cut her throat. He ac knowledges the justice of his sentence, and conducts himself in a very becoming manner. He is to suffer on Monday next. POLYGAMY.--I'.

THE FIRE AT MANCHESTER.—Yesterday afternoon an inquest was held before Mr. Chapman, on the body of John Irving, the unfortunate man who was killed at the calamitous fire at the Irwell-buildings, Blackfriars. The deceased was a joiner, and lived in Grove-street, St. John's. He was sixty-one years of age. The only witness examined was Thomas Jones, a fireman, from whose evidence it ap peared that about ten minutes past six o'clock that morn ing, as he was directing the water from the Thames engine upon the ruins of that part of Messrs. Charlton's premises adjoining the parsonage, the deceased and a man named Thomas Jackson came up, and the deceased said, " Where's George ?" They were both in liquor, but Jackson appeared to be the most intoxicated of the two. Shortly after the deceased and Jackson had spoken to witness, he observed the deceased looking through a door, and Jackson through a window behind Messrs. Charlton's premises, when suddenly a "cat-head," which was fixed above the window, in the top story, and, a large portion of the outer wall fell ; and the cat-head and portions of the wall fell upon them. Witness and John Higginbottom, another fireman, ran immediately to the spot,- when they found the deceased lying upon his face, with his skull severely fractured, and other wounds and bruises about his head and face. He was quite life less. The deceased's hat was quite crushed to pieces, and there was blood beneath his head. Mr. Rose had given notice to the firemen, before the portion of the wall fell, that it was in an unsafe state ; and parties had been frequently warned to keep from under. A verdict of " Acci dental death" was returned. The deceased has left a widow. —Manchester Guardian.
