America bring fresh news of the atrocities of a monster who, it would scarcely be imagined, existed in the nine teenth century. General Rosas, the Dictator of the Argentine Republic, still continues his work of bloat and destruction. The last packet has conveyed. strong remonstrances to the Earl of Aberdeen on this subject; and the British resident at Monte Video has addressed a very eloquent appeal to the Foreign Minister, setting forth the dangers to which the English mercantile and other interests are exposed by the permissive policy as it were, indulged in with regard to the Dictator. From the time that Rosas first appeared as a public man to the time at which we write, he has, it would appear, been guilty of the massacre of thirty thousand souls—to say nothing of probably an equal number who have been forced, through his despotic proceedings, to take refuge in strange lands. In the year 1836, Rosas, after the Royalist party had yielded to the patriot brothers, determined to strike terror into the minds of the in habitants, and he caused to be brought from the con fines of the province, a tribe of Indians who had be• come his prisoners. On their passage they endea voured to escape, when, without regard to trial, or any other ceremony, and with no respect for age or sex , one hundred of these poor wretches, fathers, mothers, and children under nine years of age, were butchered in the very streets of Buenos Ayres. They were brought from their prisons in groups of ten or twelve, and shot by platoons of soldiers—and many who were merely wounded, awl who endeavoured t« crawl away, were dragged back, had their throats cut, and their brains beat out, and afterwards left as food for the dogs and swine of the city.. In 1839, Dr- Vincent Naze, the President of the National As sembly, and second magistrate of the city, was assas sinated in his private apartment in the House oe Representatives, at seven in the evening. He was. the .intimate friend of the Governor, and had been, heard to say that the knowledge of the waylaying and massacre of General Quirc.ga and escort would cost him his life. Two days after, the son of Mazai being suspected, by Rosas, of conspiracy, he was arrested, and eventually followed the fate of his father—the two bodies being afterwards cast into a dung-cart, and thrown amongst those of other victims. The widow and survivors of the Maza family was even forbidden to wear mourning, or to perform any rites and ceremonies in their church, for the victims! Numerous other crimes, too horrible for detail, coukl be enumerated—all of which are attributable' to this vile Republican adventurer ; yet such a man is allowed, in the face of Europe, to pursue his career of bloodshed and murder, unmolested! The conduct of our agent, Mr. Mandeville, whiclz is extremely vacillating, is loudly and generally con— demned, and appears to excite much indignation amongst the English residents, especially when com pared with the noble conduct of his predecessor, Mr.. Hamilton Hamilton, who, not many days after his. arrival, applied to the British Government to be re moved from the scene of Rosas' Dictatorship, as he deemed any communication with him derogatory to. his honour and the principles of our national policy.. It is to be hoped, however, that the vigilance of Com modore Purvis, who is in command of our fleet in these seas, will speedily place matters on a better footing, and the confidence reposed in him appatently by the residents would seem to mark him as a fit pro tector for our merchants. He is decidedly averse to Rosas ; and probably, but for the countenance the Dictator receives at the hands of Mr. Mandeville, that inhuman dealer in horrors would, ere this, have been deprived of the means of effecting further mischief.--.

" Two gentlemen" met in the Liverpool train, And of humour they seemed to possess a rich vein ; Their converse partook of the news of the day, And questions and answers quite filled up the way ; They talk'd of the weather, the crops, and the trade, And versatile talent they quickly display'd. They talk'd of Fringe Albert, the Queen, and her trip, And mercantile matters they likewise let slip:— " Oh I Hyam," said one, without question or doubt, " Is firmly establish'd all England throughout - For at Birmingham, Liverpool, London, and Leeds, I hear that his system bravely succeeds; Whilst Manchester, Bristol, and Glasgow likewise, Are daily the scenes of his mighty supplies!" " 'Tis strange," said the other, " and hard to believe, What efforts like his can attempt to achieve ; And the ' mind' that can wield such a mighty design, Is worthy the favours the public assign! Why the men he employs in his vast occupation, To Ten Thousand amount at a fair estimation ! And full Sixty Thousand depend for support On these popular places of fame and resort !" The fact is established beyond contradiction, And must bring to all a most certain conviction, That Hyam derives every chance that arises, And proves he can sell at one-half the trade prices! 3,000 Waterproof Wrappers, of the most fashionable materials, rem 9s. 6d. each.

A meeting was held last night at the Temperance Hall, in the Blackfriar's-road, in order to obtain sub scriptions in aid of the fund which is in tile course of collection for the purpose of relieving the embar rassments of the Rev. Mr. Mathew, into which he has fallen in consequence of tbe sacrifices incurred by him in his successful efforts to encounter the baneful effects of intemperance amongst large classes not only of his own countrymen, but also of natives of England. The handbill which announced the meeting contained the following energetic appeal : " Irishmen, Englishmen, rally round the great moral regenerator of his own nation and people, and the benefactor of man in every country. Uphold and prove your gratitude to the man who has generously sacrificed his time and his fortune to emancipate his fellow-creatures of every creed and country from the horrid slavery of intemperance. Come, therefore, and make a sacrifice to support him." On the motion of Mr. F. O'CONNOR, Mr. Bucaisiunam took the chair, and announced the object of the meeting. He exhorted those pre sent to assist in forwarding the great purpose for which they were assembled. He presumed that the reason why he had been elected to fill the chair was, that he had been a coadjutor of Father Mathew in much of his labours both in Ireland and this country, and was thus enabled to speak on his behalf both as a witness and an advocate. Many persons of greater importance might have been appointed to the post to which he had been called, but none who knew better the character of the man to whom he had to refer, and in doing so he should confine himself to the most strictly truthful representations. Having ad verted to the general prevalence of intemperance in the British islands until of late years, and borne tes timony to the invaluable services of Mr. Mathew in eradicating the evil in some quarters, and greatly mitigating it in others, Mr. I3uckingham, in illus tration of the extent of the evil and the necessity of checking it, stated that the amount of the premature deaths from drunkenness in these kingdoms was not year. He then described the progress of the temperance movement, originles s than a n d 6O ,000 it interspersing the narrative with a variety of appro priate statistical details. He passed a high eulo gium upon Father Mathew for his zeal, disin terestedness, and enthusiasm in the cause, and ac counted for the pecuniary embarrassments in which he is involved, by explaining that he had sacrificed large sums of money in supporting and ministering to the wants of those pilgrims of temperance who re sorted to his house from remote distances. This, and the expense of the temperance medals, which he dis tributed gratuitously in large numbers, and of the foundation of temperance halls, and the establishment of temperance bands, and other measures which were necessary to perpetuate the great regeneration which he had originated, but which occasioned a -large ex penditure, for which he was responsible, had placed him in his present difficulties. the result of Father Mathew's efforts was that 5,000,000 out of 8,000,000 of people were made converts to temperance. What was that worth ? Ile did nothesitate to say 5,0Q0,000/. sterling at the least—there being 1,500,000 of tee totallers in England and Scotland, and 5,000,000 in Ireland. This was a benefit far greater than the emancipation of the negroes, for which we had paid 20 millions of money. He could not think that there would be any difficulty in raising a sum of money sufficient, not only to relieve Mr. Mathew from his difficulties, but to provide for him a handsome annuity, when he reflected upon a calcula tion which had been made, and which proved that a sum of a penny a month, from every teetotaller in the three kingdoms, would create a fund of 250,0001. a-year. After another handsome tribute to the exer tions of Mr. Math ew , th e Chairman called upon Mr. PUR VIS t o move the first resolution, which consisted of a declar a ti o n of the great value of Father Mathew's s e r v i ces and the justice of rescuing from the strait s i n , which his benevolence and philan thropy had alone placed him. Mr. Purvis announced his own readiness to contribute five guineas for the purpose. The r eso l u ti on was appropriately seconded , and earnestly responded to (even before it w as for wally adopted) by the eager liberality of those pre sent, who flock e d in crow ds to deposit their contribu tions in a plate prepared to receive them. Mr. P. O'CONNOR supported the resolution, and said that the support of Father Mathew was incum bent not only upon teetotallers, but also upon every man who drank a drop, and even upon the drunkard himself. He then expressed his satisfaction at the change -which Mr. Buckingham had described as having taken place in his country, and stated that in the course of his former practice at the bar in Ireland, which had not been slight, he had never been called upon to defend a sober man against an impeachment for crime. If the 5,000,000 in Ireland would sub scribe a penny a week each, it would amount to up wards of a million sterling a year. Father Mathew had given ears, eyes, and comprehension to Ireland. He thanked God that drunkenness was now the ex ception in that country, where it had hitherto been the rule. He then called upon the meeting to be liberal in their efforts in support of the temperance martyr, and invoked them with the pithy sermon of Dean Swift :—" Ile that giveth to the poor lendeth to the Lord. If you like your security, down with your dust." The resolution was unanimously adopted, as were also some others, which were introduced with speeches in furtherance of the object ; and a considerable col lection was made on the spot. A committee was ap pointed to keep the subscription books open till the end of the year. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.-YESTERDAY.

THE LATE SWINDLING AFFAIR. (From the Birmingham Journal.) On Wednesday a number of respectable tradesmen who had been swindled by the blind man, of whose nefarious transactions we gave an account last week, came before the magistrates (Messrs. Shaw and Nel son), for the purpose of detailing their grievances, and laying, if possible, a foundation for the arrest of the gang by whom they had been robbed. The first gentleman who presented himself was Aft. W. Arnold, solicitor, of Bennett's-hill, who stated that he applied for a warrant against a blind man, named Rice, and his accomplice, Joliffe, who had lately been practising upon him and numerous attorneys and tradesmen in the town. Indeed, he believed some of the oldest and most respectable practitioners had been defrauded by the swindlers, although they were rather ashamed to come forward. He, however, felt no difficulty about the matter ; and, considering that it was his duty to aid in detecting and punishing such persons, he should state the facts of his case, and ask for a warrant against the parties. The week before last Rice, who was a blind man, accompanied by a youth of most respectable appearance, called at his office, presented his card, and stated that he was recommended to him by, Mr. Smith, of New-street, a friend of his (Mr. Arnold's). After a few words, Rice told him that he wished him to write to a man named Joliffe, of the Aston-road, for. a debt of 631. 10s. He accordingly wrote, and in a day or two after Joliffe galled at his (Arnold's) office, and expressed his great regret that Mr. Rice should have proceeded against him, particularly as he did not owe all the money sued for. He (Mr. Arnold) then agreed to accept 581. on the Monday following, in discharge of the debt due to Rice; and Joliffe was about to leave, when he expressed himself very grateful for the kind manner in which the debt had been reduced, and begged him (Mr. Arnold) to accept a guinea for his trouble, which he, of course, declined to do, and Joliffe left the office. On the Monday following Rice called again, and, on being informed of the arrange ment made with Joliffe, he appeared quite delighted, observing that he never really expected to have re covered the money. He then proceeded to say that he had advanced Joliffe 30'. upon some deeds, and being short of cash he had assigned the deeds to another party, at Coventry, for 20/., and had not then the money to redeem the writings previously to their being delivered up to Joliffe on Monday. He then asked him (Mr. Arnold) if he could advance him 201., and the latter replied he would if he had so much in his desk, but opening it he found he had only 101. Rice immediately said that would do for the present, as he could borrow the remainder from some friend, upon which he handed him the money, and took his 0 U for the amount, and the boy attested it. .the money and deeds were to be delivered on Saturday, the latter to be given up to Joliffe on Mon day, when he paid the 581. Before leaving the office, Rice expressed himself deeply grateful to Mr. Arnold for the accommodation, and, as a small recompense for his trouble, begged his acceptance of 31. 3s. This offer he refused, saying that it was unprofessional to accept of any consideration of the kind, and Rice then left the office. On Saturday he was hourly ex pecting Mr. Rice with the money and deeds, but the gentleman not arriving, he (Mr. Arnold) was be ginning to wonder, when he took up the Birmingham Journal, and his eye caught a paragraph headed " A New Way to Raise the Wind; the Lawyers Outwitted ;" and thinking it something strange for those honourable gentlemen to be done, he read the article, and soon perceived that he himself was one out of a number of the professional gentlemen who had been swindled. Under these circumstances he applied for a warrant against Rice and his associate, as there could be no doubt they had been acting in concert. Mr. W. Hall said there were several other per sans in the town who had been swindled, but he could not get them to the office, as they did not like to ap pear under the circumstances. The parties then left the Court. _ _ We have received several communications from gentlemen in London and elsewhere, who, have recog nised in Mr. Rice, from the case reported by us last Week, an old acquaintance. One of our correspon dents, a sufferer, who dates his nose from the Par thenon Club, Regent-street, informs -.us that the blind man, when practising in town, went by the name of "C. Radly, tailor, 13, Hatfield-street, Stamford-street, Borough," and his accomplice by the name of " Charles Portlock Attwood, of Eltham, Kent." Another correspondent, a professional' ipn man, • who, we have no doubt, was also victimised, says he can furnish a clue to the discovery and ap prehension of the scoundrels, should any measures be determined upon for bringing them to justice. This gentleman's address we shall be happy to furnish, if required, as he is most willing to lend a hand in bringing the transactions of the swindling company to a close. It appears the parties are well known to the metropolitan police, whose vigilance they have suc ceeded in eluding ; we trust our Birmingham force will be more successful when they make the attempt. JERSEY ROYAL COURT.— WEDNESDAY. (From the Jersey Times.) WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS-IN RR C. C. WILSON. The Attorney-General read a report signed " J. P. De Ste Croix, Depute-Vicomte," wherein it was stated that on Monday last Mr. J. Kandich, Governor of her Majesty's gaol in this island, was served with a copy of a writ of habeas corpus, emanating from the Court of Queen's Bench, ordering the said Kandich immediately to bring before that tribunal the body of Charles Carus IVilson, at this moment a prisoner for contempt of Court. The writ was served by Colonel Davidson, who at the same time tendered a Bank of England note for 51., being the amount of expenses allowed by Mr. Justice Patteson, and endorsed on the writ. The Attorney-General then went on to observe, that in several charters, granted by various Sove reigns of England, it was expressly stipulated that no summons, or order, from any of the Courts at Westminster ran in this island. His Majesty George lIL ordered all Acts having force of law in this island to be registered, for the better information of his sub jects in these islands. The' Habeas Corpus Act had never been sent for registration until the year 1832, when it was transmitted to both Jersey and Guernsey ; but the States, fearing this would encroach on their privileges, sent deputies to London, who made such representations as induced the Government at that period to abandon the subject without pressing for the registration. The charters of Queen Elizabeth and of James 11. assured to the authorities of the island of Jersey full power in all judicial matters. In the latter, more particularly, it was stated— as he would show the Court—that they were fully empowered to treat all causes, " personal, mixtes, pecuniary, criminal, and capital, wherein a native was concerned, and that without any interference, summons, writ, letter, warrant, or order from any tribunal in Great Britain, except in those cases where his Majesty or his successors reserve to themselves the right of hearing, and deciding any appeal made to them from the judgments of the jurats, said causes to be treated according to the laws, customs, and usages of the island, all orders, warrants, or sum monses from any other court notwithstanding ; the natives not being compelled to answer such orders, warrants, or summonses, but being allowed to rest in quiet to await justice in their court without fear of fine or penalty for contempt or contumacy." The Learned Gentleman concluded by remarking, that in consequence of what had taken place on Monday, and considering the importance of the subject as re garded the privileges and immunities of the islands, he would move the Court to take the matter into their serious deliberation -and consideration and to resist the writ, at the same time grounding their judgment on the documents he had quoted and on all other such as had bearing on the question at issue. Of these there was a great number to read at present, but he would show that at a later period, when the code of 1771 was confirmed, these charters were as serted and the plenary powers granted to this tribunal recognised. In fact, all the Sovereigns had, if not added to, at least confirmed them. The Bailli• observed, that as this writ would seriously militate against our privileges, it was de serving of serious and mature consideration. The subject being of an important nature, he thought the judges had better retire in order to consult together. — All the judges present concurring in the Presi dent's opinion retired, with the exception of Mr. E. Nicolle, who stated that his opinion was already formed, and he did not think it necessary to retire. After a deliberation which lasted exactly three hours and a quarter the jurats returned, and, after silence had been restored, the clerk of the Court read I their decision, which was of a very lengthy n a t ure , embodying the substance of the various charters and the constitution of King John, by which the judges of this Royal Court, in conjunction with twelve itinerant English justicers or judges, are pronounced a sufficient tribunal, from whose decisions lay no appeal but to the Sovereign. On the authority of sll those various documents, and considering that the said C. C. Wilson could, if he thought himself in jured by the judgment given against him, have it re examined by presenting a remonstrance, and, if not satisfied then, could appeal by doleance to her Ma jesty in Council, the Court ordered the gaoler to take no notice whatever of the said writ of hahcas corpus, and expressed it as, their opinion that Justice Patta son had been deceived respecting the question of jurisdiction. All the jurats approved of the written judgment. Jurat E. Nicolle, in giving his opinion, said that the Bailli, forming part of the deputation sent in 1832, must necessarily know what was said by Government on the subject. The Bailli—They abandoned it. Jurat E. Nicolle—Then I presume the Adminis tration of 1844 will do the same as that of 1832. I did not think it was necessary for the Court to notice the matter. This case will, of course , set the matter at rest as to whether the writ doth or doth not run. MULTIPLICITY OP STREETS SIMILARLY NAMED. —The following occurrence will, it is imagined, show the extreme folly of having so many streets in the me tropolis of the same name :—A few nights ago, a girl, about sixteen years of age, named Caroline Brown, a native of Reading, and who was staying at tho house of her uncle, Mr. Sabberton, 5, George-street, Bagnigge wells-road, was sent out upon an errand, but, not re turning for several hours after, her uncle became alarmed, and gave information at the Clerkenwell police station, having in vain endeavoured, after many hours' search, to discover her. It appeared, at length, that the poor girl, who is of rather weak intellect, had wandered about, and that she was found crying on the step of a door, in George-street, Portman-square. She was taken to the station-house, when Inspector Tudman sent her, in company of a constable, to no less than five George streets, at none of which was she known. The inspector kindly procured a lodging for her at a coffee-shop for the night, and in the morning she was restored to her uncle, whose address was at last ascertained. _ _ CORONER'S INQUEST.—SUICIDE.—Yesterday after noon a jury was impannelled before Mr. William Carter, coroner for East Surrey, at the Rose and Crown, Long lane, Bermondsey, to inquire into the circumstances at tending the death of Mr. William Jonathan Pragnall, aged 35 years, a master brass-finisher, carrying on an extentensive business at 98, Long-lane, who committed suicide :—Mr. Robert Tremaine, of 23, White -street, Borough, said, that in consequence of information he re ceived on Friday last, he was induced to go todeceased's house. lie there found him in bed and apparently in great agony. lie appeared perfectly sensible and knew witness, who asked him if he had taken anything ? 1)e -ceased replied that he had swallowed a large quantity of arsenic and corrosive sublimate Messrs. Wagstaffe and other medical gentlemen were called in, and did all that the nature of the case would would permit, but deceased died at four o'clock the following morning. John Wise, the sexton of Bermondsey, said he saw deceased on Fri day last ; he was then in a very excited state, and he said that what he had taken was owing to the miscon duct of his wife. Mr. Sharp, a surgeon, was sent for, but that gentleman believing he had not taken poison, nothing was then given to him, and Mr. Gibson advised him to return home and live comfortably with his wife. Deceased and his wife walked away together, apparently reconciled to each other. Miss Caroline Tremaine said she saw the deceased alive on Friday afternoon last. He then called at her brother's, whom he asked to see. On witness telling him that her brother was out, he replied, " I am sorry for that, for lie will never see me alive again." He afterwards shook hands with witness and her sister, saying as he left, " Good bye, God bless you bath, lam now off to my long home.' lie also alluded to his wife's misconduct, and said he had taken poison because he could bear it no longer. Verdict, `f Tem porary insanity." COLLISION or VESSELS.—The ship George, Capt. Roberts, from St. Vincent, arrived in Kingroad late on Wednesday night, during a heavy gale of wind from S.S.E., having during the day lost two anchors and cables off the Nass Point ; having, moreover, another over the bow ready to let go. In ranging up past the quarantine ground, off Portsbead, the night being very dark and dirty, the schooner Nora Creina, Orfeur, 173 tons burden, which arrived on the 10th from Smyrna, with a cargo of valonia, and lying at quarantine, was run on board of, end on, and immediately sank. All hands were providentially saved, but the vessel and cargo are a total loss. The schooner is sunk in 8 fathoms law water, and was anchored with 45 fathoms chain, in charge of a steady careful pilot, James Ray. The George is in charge of Mr. Joseph Bunn, licensed pilot, and was towed up to Cumberland Basin this morning by two steamers. She has lost top-gallant masts, and ap pears to have sustained other damage.—Bristol Gazette of Thurs.lay. A numerous public meeting was held at the Lite rary and Scientific Institution,'Fitzroy-square, on Friday evening, convened by the Anti-Persecution Union. to take into consideration the conduct of Messrs. Hark worth, Cookman, and Firbank, magistrates of Hull, who have lately fined a bookseller in that town 201. for receiving 2d. admission money at a public lecture. The meeting was addressed by Messrs. Hetherington, South well, llolyoake, Parker, Ellis, and Mrs. Martin—George Bird, Esq., in the chair. Resolutions, condemnatory of the conduct of the m agistrates ab9ve-named, were unaai mo❑sly passed, and it was determined to take legal pro ceedings, with a view to procuring the fine to be an .nulk tt The meeting did not separate until a late hour CHEAP LIGHT. FWARD PRICE and CO., Patentees and Sole Manufacturers of the COMPOSITE CANDLES, respectfully call the attention of the Public to the fact, that, although the prico of these is somewhat highor than that of ordinary mould Candles, they are in reality much cheaper than these latter; one real Composite Candle giving about the same quantity of light as throe of the moulds. They require no snuffing, and burn more brilliantly than the best wax. The purposes of economy and luxury are therefore both served at the same time by the use of these Candles. I'artics intending to try them for the first time, are earnestly requested to take care that they are served in the shops with " PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES:" the reason for this caution is given elsewhere. Thoy are sold by most of the respectable tallow chandlers through out the kingdom, and wholesale to the trade by Edward Price and Co., Belmont, Vauxhall; and by Palmer 'and Co., Sutton-street, Clerkenwell. SOUTHAMPTON-MONDAY. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Royal Tar, Captain R. Gasson, arrived at this port at eleven o'clock, A.M., bringing mails from Gibraltar, Cadiz, Lisbon, Oporto, and Vigo. Iler dates of departure are as follow :—From Gibraltar the 10th instant; Cadiz, the 11th ; Lisbon, the 13th; Oporto, the 14th ; and Vigo, the 15th. The following is the only news from Lisbon : Costa Cabral's career is now a succession of triumphs. On Saturday last he gained a victory in the Chamber of Peers, where the question regarding the use made by the Government of the discretionary powers intrusted to it in February last was decided in favour of Ministers by thirty-seven votes to twelve. This, however, was not the grand ques tion; for as no express limits were set to the conces sion, it would be hard to prove the alleged excess be yond a line which was never clearly marked out, and accordingly the Duke of Palmella, and several other Opposition Peers, voted with the Government on the occasion. The really important subject of debate is that which is to come on next—namely, the Bill of In demnity for the unconstitutional acts performed by the Government after the cessation of the discre cretionary powers. On that grant, it is expected, that Palmella and his party will make a most determined stand. Nevertheless it is pretty certain, that there, too, the Ministry will have a majority, though pro bably a much smaller one than that which they have just gained. SUICIDE FROM DOMESTIC DIFFERENCES.—An in quest was held last evening, at the Black Lion, Water lane, Fleet-street, before Mr. Payne, on the body of of Anne Duck, aged 43, who destroyed herself with poison. Elizabeth Duck said that the deceased was her mother, and resided with her, her father, and her sister, at No. 1, Britton's-court. Deceased was very unhappy, and witness knew no other cause for her unhappiness than the quarrels she had with her husband. On many occasions, when suffering from his ill-treatment, she had taken poison, and on Sunday week she made a vow that, if he did not come home in a peaceable manner, she should not live another Sunday. On Sunday morning last her husband came home, and the first thing he said to her was, " How about the lawyer," in allusion to his having been bound over to keep the peace towards her so:ne time previous. Witness, while sitting up in bed shortly afterwards, waiting for deceased to come to her, heard her draw the cork from a bottle, and believing that she had drank poisOn, got out of bed to see. Shen then found two phials, both of which smelt of laudanum. Wit ness got her hot water to try and make her vomit, but find ing that ineffectual, she went by her father's advice for a sur geon. She heard the deceased say that she had taken eight pennyworth of laudanum. ller father was a waiter at the Half Moon, Borough, but contributed nothing to the support of the family-. lle frequently beat her. Police-constable 327 said that he had frequently been called upon to quell disturbances between deceased and her husband. The husband he often heard use towards her the most disgusting language. Mr. Keasley, assistant to Mr. Day, surgeon, of Salisbury-square, said that, while administering emetics to the deceased, she begged to be left to die, saying that she wished the Almighty would take her. Notwithstanding all his efforts she su rik and died from the effects of the laudanum. She told him that she had become possessed of the poison by purchasing a pennyworth at a time. Stephen Duck, the husband, said that the unhappy differences between him and his wife commenced a year ago, when he found her inconstant to the marriage vow. Two sons of the de ceased said that, ever since their childhood, the deceased and her husband had been in the habit of quarrelling through jealousy of each other. The jury returned a verdict of" Temporary insanity." REDUCTION OF DUTY ON TE A.—A memorial, origi nated by the East India Association of this town, will lie for signature at the Exchange and Underwriters'- rooms, from and after to-day, praying for a considerable reduction of the duty on tea. The association lately for warded a memorial, signed, we believe, by all the mem bers, praying for a reduction of the duty to the extent of one shilling in the pound ; but, in submitting one for more general signature, and aware that some diversity of opinion exists as to the exact amount to which the re duction ought to take place, they deemed it advisable to ; leave the question an " open" one, and simply to pray l that it might be considerable.—Liverpool Albion of Monday. THE SLAVE TRADE. (From the Deconport Telegraph.) Extract from a letter from her Majesty's ship Hyacinth, 18, dated August 27, 1844 :—Our orders have been to look after slaves, examining every sail coining in our way, and to detain every suspicious vessel. While on the south coast the boats have been. dispatched four times, fourteen days each time, cruizing close along shore examining every sail. Up to the 13th, no shots were fired in earnest, but only "in a quiet way, desiring them to heave to." One vessel had been detained by the Hyacinth, and sh© having several Government guns with some English prisoners on board, &c., was sent into Loando for trial at court, but acquitted, owing, I believe, (but of course this is but a matter of my own opinion), to our English Consul having committed suicide, while delirious from fewer, fourteen days before. She was called the Flir de Fago. On the 12th of August, Mr. Tottenham ' the mate, was sent in the second gig, with four hands to pull in shore, and reconnoitre close in until he arrived at Fish Bay. On the 13th he saw a vessel at some distance, near the land. He immediately " gave way" towards her— hen he got within musket shot he fired a gun, in order to make her heave to. No notice, however, was taken of this, the vessel keeping her way without altering a sail. Mr. Tottenham continued firing, and it being nearly a calm, he gained rapidly on her, and when within a hundred yardi,lie was not a little surprised at noticing the people on board busy in hoisting a large gun on the poop, and directing the same at his boat. Several . musket& were also discharged at him. Thinking it was now time for him to do something, he deliberately aimed at every head he saw above the gunwale. At length he succeeded in getting alongside, and all the crew of the vessel shoved off on the other for the shore, which was not 200 yards distant. As he and_ his crew got on deck, one fellow leaped over and swam ashore. Mr. Tottenham immediately took pos session of the vessel, and found only one man there, who was dreadfully wounded—he died within forty hours after on board the Hyacinth, which anchored in Port Alexander, the bay where the engagement took place. The prize turns out to be a very fine brig, or 190 tons, called the Aventuraro. The captain, with 18 men, after fighting for three hours, ran his vessel on shore and deserted her. Fearful odds, five to nineteen ! The conduct of Mr. Tottenham deserves, as it will no doubt receive, its reward. BANKS FOR SAVINGS. To-morrow the new Act regarding Savings' Banks will come into operation. There are 33 sections it the same, amending, not repealing, the two former Acts respecting those establishments, namely, the 9th George IV., c. 92, and the 3d and 4th William IV., c. 14. From the day mentioned the interest payable to trustees of savings' banks will be at the rate of' 3/. ss. per cent., whilst the depositors are to rl. - -ceive not more than 31. 03. 10(1. Some of the banks intend to pay as much as 31. per cent., and others not more than 21. 18s. 4d. per cent., leaving, in the former case, only ss. in every hundred pounds, and Gs. Bd. in the other instances, for the expenses of the establishments. And when it is considered that they pay no interest on fractional parts, the interest to be derived will he very great. A declaration, set forth in the recite(' Act, is to be signed by a depositor, a copy, of which is to be placed in the deposit book. 'Officers of banks not paying over money in the time specified by the. rules, on conviction, to be guilty of a misdemeanour. Depositors are once a year to produce their books at the institutions. At present, annuities, through the medium of savings banks, can only be pur chased to 201. ; but after Wednesday next annui ties may be purchased to 301., and both hus band and wife may each possess an annuity to that or to a less amount. There are several pro visions in this Act to prevent the waste of funds litigation, and Mr. Tidd Pratt, the barrister appointedi to revise the rules of societies, has power conferred. to decide all matters relating to deposits in savings" banks. In case a will be not proved, trione may be. paid to the parties entitled to the same, or, in case of persons dying intestate, a similar proceeding may be, adopted. Payments may be made to married women * unless the husband shall give notice in writing of hiss marriage, and shall require payment to be made too him. In future rules are not to be sent to the clerks of the peace, but two copies are to be submitted to that barrister appointed for his certificate, who is to return one, and to transmit the other to the Commissioners of the National Debt. The following, though short, is a very comprehend sive provision : " Section 21.—And be it enacted, that all the Igo• visions of this Act, in as far as the same can or maw be applicable, shall apply to the trustees and manay gers of any Government annuity society, and to thcb parties purchasing annuities, and to the rules aniX regulations to be made for carrying the same into, effect." The Act has operation in Great Britain and Ire-. land, Berwick-upon-Tweed, and the islands of Guern.. sey, Jersey, and Man. THE CRESCENT AND THE CROSS; OR, ROMANCY4 AND REALITIES OF EASTERN TRAVEL. RV rmoT G. WARBURTON, ESQ. 2 VOLS.—A more ai..-, , reeshlo. companion than this author we rarely meet with. Mr.. Warburton is one who sees with the strong.ekar vision. with which Heaven has endowed him ; but with his view. ~f present scenes and material objects there is always: blended reo - dlectiotis of the past, and something-00Hglz dashed in unconsciously—of poetic feeling. Ile brings to his work of observation an aecompliihed mind ants well-trained and healthful facu!tics. As we read we arc. proud to claim him as a countryman, and are conteu4 that his book shall go over all the world, that Other countries from it may derive a just impression of our• national chanleter. His route is easily marked. Ho went in a steamer to Alexandria, sailed up the Nile be-. yond the second cataract, and inspected those wonders of Barbarian art in Nubia, whose origin is lost in their antiquity ; visited the great cities and monuments of: Egypt, then crossed to Beyrout, made a pilgrimage t,* the Holy Land, and on his homeward voyage touched at emus and Greece. Ilis volumes are full of ,}lists perception and spirited detail. They greatly increaset our acquaintance with Eastern scenes, and, to the tra veller, afford a variety of information which he con hardly elsewhere find in so compact and inNresting sh apf?. —./31 itannia
