' Morton, the indefatigable, who fits Buckstone with parts quite as well as ever Buckstone has fitted himself, produced a most laughable farce here last evening, entitled The King and /—Buckstone, rejoicing in the name of Perkin Pyefinch, being, of course, the I. The scene is laid in London, in 1621, and Mr. Pyefinch, who is, as he informs us , a nat i ve of York, in Yorkshire, fancies himself calculated to cut a figure in the world, and is exceedingly desirous of getting a place under Government. He cares not what it is—any thing, from a commander-in-chief to a beefeater, would suit him. Lie is, moreover,. a suitor for the hand of a certain Jessie D'onald (Miss J. Bennett) a pretty Scot c h g i r l, w h ose lover, Sir W. M e l rose (Mr. Noll; is obliged to reside abroad, as a suspected Jacobite. There is a certain Mistress May love (Miss Telbin), a favourite of William the Third, a pa tronoss of Pyefinch, and a friend of Melrose, who has returned to London secretly, in order to endeavour to save his property from the grasp of an old usurer. Pyefinch over-hears Mrs. Maylove call him William, jumps at the conclusion that he must be the King, treats him as such with most laughable outré marks of respect, feasts him, lends him money, even gives up Jessie Donald at his command, and then congratu lates himself that the King and I have eat, and drank, and hobnobbed together, so that the place will moat as suredly follow as a matter of course. The acting of Buck stone in the feasting scene was grand. Never. has etiquette run mad been more superbly represented, and the self-satisfaction with which he talks about the King and I, is rich in the extreme. Superb, too, was the contempt with which he treated Burchell (Jas. Bland), the Minister's Secretary, who comes to pump him concerning Mistress Maylove, and his stare of astonishment when he discovers, which he does, by being arrested as a traitor, that his King is Sir William Melrose, and that he has actually lent money to redeem the very estate which he and the old usurer were to share between them, was magni ficent. Of course, Melrose's innocence is proved, and he is married to Jessie, according to the prescribed practice in all such cases, and Master Pyefinch gets a promise of payment. The house, which was a bumper, was in a roar the whole time Buckstone was on the stage, and amidst the loudest ap plause he announced The King and I will appear every night. SOLICITRS. Messrs. Johnson, Farquhar, a n d Leech, London Messrs. W. Tanner, and Son, Bristol Messrs. Fowles, Tyler, and Fowles, Monmouth JUNKIES. The Union Bank, London Messrs. Curries and Co., 29, Conthill ENGINEER—Sir John Rennie, F.R.S. SECRETARY, PRO TEM.—TIIOIIIIIS Dyke, Esq. A principal: feature in this; undertaking:is the erection at the Old, or Aust, Passage, of a fixed bridge across the estuary of the Severn, adapted as well for railway traffic as for ordinary carriage and pe destrian intercourse. By the construction of this bridge, and the in tended line of railway in connexion with it, two most important objects will be attained ; first, there will be established, by moans of a junction at Hereford with the proposed lines north of that city, a direct, unbroken line of railway communication between Bristol and Liverpool, with a saving in distance of about forty-two miles over the present route ; and, secondly, there will be opened a free com munication between the southern and western portions of England, on the one hand, and Monmouthshire and South Wales ex the other. These Important districts have hitherto been practically severed, and only rendered accessible to each other by a most inconvenient ferry, dependent on tides and weather. The want of a fixed bridge over the Severn, at the point intended by this company, has long been severely felt, and it would be Impossible, whether in reference to na tional or local interests, to over estimate the importance of a scheme designed to supply this want. It has not, however, been from a consideration of Its impracticability that such a work has not long since been accomplished. In the year 1825 Mr. Telford, the late ce lebrated engineer, was consulted upon the subject, and gave a most decided opinion in favour of it, particularly adverting (amongst other causes affording facility) to the groat height of the banks at the Old Passage, to the fact of the bed of the river consisting wholly of solid rock, and to the circumstance that suitable materials for the work could be procured within a reasonable distance. The engineers of the present proposed work, as well as other en gineers of eminence, are equally confident of the thorough practica bility of the undertaking. Until recent times, and before the period had arrived when railway traffic and profits had reached their present astonishing extent, the expense of this bridge compared with the probable traffic returns, naturally retarded its projection; but now, when works equally difficult and expensive, such as tunnels and viaducts, are readily con structed by railway companies for the mere traffic of their line, and sometimes only to avoid a comparatively trifling deviation, it will be at once admitted, that with a view merely to the formation of a direct line between Bristol and Liverpool (without looking to col lateral or ultra-terminal advantages), the magnitude of the under taking is no longer to be regarded as an impediment to its com pletion. w b h r is i dg u e - the r . ace Duke of The recent decision of the Ad m iralty ag a i ns t the proposed bridge at the Hock Crib, tw e l ve m il es hi g h er u p th e estuary, leaves the Aust Passage ge th m e eohntlsy havepracticablebeen p eo o h in cl t u f d o e r d a flied th Beaufort, and the other proprietors of the Aust F erry, whereby the rra lt purchase of that important interest has been secured to this Com pany. THE OLD ENGLAND AFFAIR. The following is the official report of the proceedings be (ore the Stewards of the Jockey Club : " The Stewards of the Jockey Club having attended at Messrs. Weatherby's office in Burlington-street, on Saturday, the 31st of May, and, by adjournment, on Monday, the 2d of June, to hear a charge brought by Mr. Gully, against J. F. Bloodsworth and William Stebbings, of having conspired to bet against Old England for the Derby, in connexion with Wil liam Day, and through information clandestinely derived from him, and subsequently to lame, or by other means to prevent the said horse running for that race, having heard the confession of W. Day, and the evidence of W. Barrett, jun., and of J. Day, sen. are satisfied that Messrs. Bloodsworth and Stebhings did conspire to bet against Old England; that communication waa kept up by Stebbings writing letters through Bloodsworth to William Day, which letters were sent under cover to William Barrett, jun., of Stoekbridge, for several months. It appeared that William Day and William:Barrett, jun., did, on different occasions, meet btebbings at,Bloodsworth's house in London, and at other places, to carry out th e i r p l ans. It was also po sitively stat e d by William Day and William Barrett, jun., that Stebbinga did at Bloodsworth's house recommend that the horse's foot should be bruised by striking it with a hard stone, or by tying a handkerchief round the leg, and striking the sinew with a stick, and if that was not sufficiett, that he, Stebbings, could easily get a powder, which, being mixed w ith th e corn, would stop him. Th e y added that Bloodsworth was averse to the last part of this proposal, saying it was a lagging affair. Messrs. Bloodsworth and Stebbings denied the whole story of having desired William Day to maim the horse, but admitted that they had betted largely against Old England, in consequence of the information they had obtained from William Day, and Stebbings acknowledged that he • had received full information from William Day for several years past as to the qualities and condition of horses in John Day's stables, and bad betted largely for himself and for Wil liam Day in consequence of such information. " The Stewards therefore order— " That J. F. Bloodsworth, William Stebbings, and William Day, be warned off the course at Newmarket, and out of the Coffee-room-yard there ; and that William Day be not per mitted to ride in any race at Newmarket. " They also recommend the proprietors and stewards of all race-courses where the rules of the Jockey Club are in force to prevent them appearing on such courses. / STRADBROKE Signed ROSSLYN (for the Marquis of Exeter) GEORGE ANSON."

That though the Annual Subscriptions to the Institute were originally fixed at too low a scale for the varied advantages and plea sures which it offers to the Members, it is thought best to continue them for the present, without any change, the Council relying on the efforts of the Members generally (now that all doubt of success and stability is removed) to exert themselves in their respective circles, by correcting misapprehensions, and making the real merits and attractions of the Establishment more generally and more accu rately known, so that by constantly increasing numbers, the income may be proportionately hnproved, without any addition to the exist ing rates, and the funds be thus made adequate to accomplish all the improvements contemplated and desired." Proposed by Sir GEORGE STAUNTON, Bart. ; seconded by GEORGE WILBRAIIAM, Esq. "4.

Proposed by WYNN Eizis, Esq., M.P. ; seconded by Brig.-Gen. Sir HENRY PYNN. " 5. That the four classes of members, as at present arrrariged, be in all future entries limited to two only ; namely, town members and country members ; the former to include all who reside or who have establishments in London, or within seven miles of the General Post office, or who remain in town for more than two months at any one time, and make use of the Institute during any part of that period ; and the latter, to embrace all who live beyond that distance, who have no establishments in the metropolis, and who do not remain in town beyond the specified period."

Yesterday a man, named William Leonard, was put to th e bar charged w i t h having caused an exp l osion of gas i n a public-h ouse i n Petticoat-lane, on Saturday last, and injured Mrs. Reeing, the proprietor of it. At about twenty minutes past eight o'clock on Saturday night the prisoner and another man walked into the parlour of the house, accompanied by a female, and the landlady stated to them that she did not allow women to go beyond the bar. She knew the men, and entertained a very indifferent opinion of them. Soon after the party went away the landlady went into the parlour, an d saw t h at the gas apparatus had been dragged away, and she p rocure d a cork to stop up the hole from which the gas was escaping. The moment she applied the cork the explosion took pl ace . Th e w i ndows were blown out of the lower part of the house, the landlady was blown off the table on which she had been standing, and a man who was in the room with her was knocked down by the fall of the door, which was forced from its hinges by the violence of the shack. Th e landlady ran out in a d rea df u l con di t i on, and with h e r cap (sn fire, and was conveyed to the hospital. The prisoner said that he certainly had been in the house on the night in question, but h e h a d no id ea w h atever of anything but what was right. The prisoner was remanded till Monday next. QUEEN-SQUARE. A SHAMELESS WlFE.—Yesterday, Edward Quinten big powerf u l fellow, described as a sa ili ng master of a small'a coasting vessel, and Mary Ann Ventris, a smartly-dressed and pretty looking female, about 28 years of age, were placed at the bar charged with felony. George Ventris, the husband of the female, a respectable looking little man, apparently sixty years of age, stepped into the witness-box and said—" I charge the prisoner with running away with my w if e an d property. I want to know whether he lhAff e i;itt, tasmedurato my place in th e country , and take quantity of wearing apparel. A; t herriare .' i=r7r ? ciad been seen in the neighbourhood at the r, time he su s p ecte d that she had gone off wain Sim, information to the police, his wife was found on boars toner's vessel, at Chelsea, on Tuesday evening, and the wear ing apparel in the cabin with her. Mr. Boren—The wearing apparel, I suppose, was such as she required for her own use ? The husband—Yes, sir, and a great deal of it too. Has he a right to take my wifa away ? That's the charge I make against him. Mr. BOND discharged the wife, and called upon the man to enter into his own recognizances to appear again on Monday, to give the husband an opportunity of producing further evi dence if he could procure any against him. The husband—Can't you hold him to bail, to prevent his eloping with my wife again? Mr. BOND said he could not. The police having intimated that the lady had consented to go back with her husband, the property was given up to the latter, and the parties then left the Court, but had scarcely been out five minutes, when the wife returned, and asked the magistrate if she was compelled to go back with her husband ? Mr. BOND said she ought to be ashamed of herself. He was much surprised at her making such an inquiry. There were very few husbands who would have taken her back. The wife, who had played with her parasol during the pre vious examination, and had exhibited no symptoms of shame, admitted that her husband hail always been a very kind man to her. The wife then retired, and whilst the husband was waiting for her outside at a public-house opposite, the woman threw her arms round her paramour's neck, and kissed him in the presence of several persons who were standing at the bar at the time, and then joined her much-injured husband. SOUTH WARK. Yesterday, Charles Sweet, described as a carver and gilder, in the Waterloo-road, was charged before Mr. Cotting ham with exposing for sale in his shop books and prints of an obscene description. Mr. COTTINGIIAM said the offence with which the defendant had been charged came clearly within the meaning of the 2d and 3d of Victoria, which gave magistrates the power of summarily dealing with such cases and inflicting penalties. He only re gretted that he could not punish the vendor of pictures and books of such an immoral and disgusting tendency under the Vagrant Act, by imprisonment. The magistrate then inflicted a fine of 403. and 7s. costs on the defendant, or one month's imprison ment in default, and added, that he hoped he would appeal against the conviction. WORSHIP-STREET. MURDEROUS OUTRAGE.—Two young men, named John and Isaac Henster, were placed at the bar before Mr. Brough ton, charged with having wantonly assaulted an elderly,man named Richard Howell, and thrown him into the Regent's Canal, whereby his life was placed in imminent danger. Sergeant Hammond, K 20, stated that while on duty at the Bromley station, near Bow, at two o'clock on the preceding afternoon, he received information that a man had been thrown into the Regent's Canal, and was then lying upon the bank in a dying state. He immediately proceeded in that direction, accompanied by the assistant of Mr. Baker, the divisional sur geon, and several officers, and on reaching Wick-lane, leading to Old Ford, he met four men carrying the body of another who was perfectly insensible, and appeared to be dead. By direction of the surgeon he was taken -to the nearest public-house, and restoratives having been administered, after a long interval he partially recovered, and stated that while seated on the coping-stone of a bridge over a branch of the canal running to Twig Folly, he observed five or six men conducting them selves in a very disorderly manner, two of whom, on approach ing him, exclaimed, " Now we'll have ab— lark," and immediately seized him by the legs and pitched him over into the water. Being unable to swim he instantly sank, and could not tell by what means he was rescued from his perilous situa tion. The injured man was then conveyed to the station house upon a stretcher, and the prisoners having arrived soon after in custody, he immediately identified them as the most active of his assailants. The witness added that the poor man had since suffered a relapse, and was now lying in the work house of the Stepney Union in such a precarious state that there was scarcely any hope of his recovery. A medical certificate was handed to the magistrate, which stated, in substance, that the man was suffering from extreme exhaustion, and that his life was in great danger. Police-constable K 222 stated that, from information he had received, he proceeded with other officers to the Three Colts at Old Ford, and found the prisoners, with five other men, play ing at quoits, six of whom were captured, but the seventh leaped a wall and escaped. On being identified by Howell as two of his assailants, the prisoners made no observation, and the other four not being recognised were at once liberated. In answer to the charge the prisoners admitted having been all the morning in the neighbourhood, but positively denied having taken any part in the outrage, and requested the magis trate to hear the evidence of the persons who were with them in confirmation of their statement. Mr. BaouGsfrow said that such evidence was wholly inad missible, as it would be his duty, if the unfortunate man died, to commit the prisoners upon the charge of wilful murder, and it was impossible at present to say to what extent the proposed witnesses might be implicated in the transaction. He should order the prisoners to be brought up again on Monday next, and the sergeant must ascertain whether Howell was in such a state as to require the immediate attendance of a magistrate ,o take his dying deposition, and communicate the result t loss of time. - The line, which will be about forty-eight miles in length, will com mence at Bristol, and proceed to the Aust Passage, there crossing the proposed bridge to Beachley, it will run northward along the valleys of the Wye and Monnow by Chepstow, Tintern Abbey, and Mon mouth to Hereford, which city will form the other terminus of the line. At Hereford the direct chain of communication to Liverpool will be completed by the lines now projected between those places. It is obvious that this route will furnish to the west and south-west of England the best and most direct means of communication not only with Liverpool and the north of England, but with Dublin and the.north of Ireland. ETON COLLEGE REGATTA. This annual festival attracted, as upon all former occasions, a great number of distinguished families to Windsor and Eton yes terday. As soon as " absence" had been called at the college, the whole of the school, now amounting to between 700 and 600, dashed off to the Brocas, where the most admirable arrangements had been made, under the superintendence of Luttrell (ma.) the captain of the boats, for the accommodation of the numerous corn. pany there assembled, and the prevention of accidents. Shortly after seven o'clock, all the necessary preparations haring been completed, the three " upper" and four " lower boats" of the college left for Surley Hall in the following order : iv Me; irelt,./2 ? ar—Lut blIk• Princs.p6,/ayou' ud On.), r •,....err To Bristol Itself the value of the project cannot be over -estimated.

ESCAPE OF A CONVICT.—On Monday morning four convicts were removed from the Lewes House of Correction in custody of two turnkeys, by way of the London and Brighton Railway. On arriving at the London-bridge terminus three of them asked permission to retire for a few minutes, in order to which, one of them was unhandcuffed from his companion and left in charge of one turnkey, while the other three were absent with the other turnkey. The convict thus left behind was named Biddle. He had, when a youth, enlisted in the 12th Lancers, from which he deserted, and on being afterwards captured and em barked for Ireland to join the regiment, when the vessel was nearly two miles from shore, he jumped overboard and swam back. 13 months ago he was tried at Lewes, and sentenced to 12 months' hard labour, for obtaining goods under false pretences. The im. prisonment had just expired, when he called on his mother, who was acting as monthly nurse to the lady of the Rev. Mr. Morgan, of Piecomb, and carried off four of the Rev. Gentleman's spoons ; for this offence he was tried at the East Sussex quarter sessions a fortnight ago, and sentenced to seven years' transportation. During his stay in Lewes gaol, we understand that he has feigned illness, and in consequence of this, it appears, the turnkey might have been rather less careful of him than he would otherwise have been. The turnkey himself states that he had turned his head but for a second, and that on again looking round the prisoner was gone. He had seized the opportunity of mixing with the crowd, and effected his escape. The handcuftls were still on one of his wrists when he slipped off. _ _ WS.

Carttar, Esq., at the Unicorn, Horse. ferry-road, Greenwich, on the body of Antonio Dermeneck, who died on board the Seamen's Hospital ship Dreadnought. After an extended inquiry, the Coroner said that all they had to inquire into was the cause of the death of the deceased, which was satisfactorily accounted for by the evidence of Mr. Brisk. The jury returned a verdict" That the deceased died from natural causes." N" ENVEL OPE. In consequence of the great variety of counterfeit Envelopes of ROWLAND'S KALYDOR, and other disreputable means resorted to by unprincipled individuals for imposing on the public their highly pernicious compounds under the title of " KALYDOR," the Pro prietors and sole Preparers of the Original and Genuine Preparation, acting under a sense of duty, and regardless of expense in the attain ment of their object—the protection of the public from fraud and imposition, have employed those celebrated artists, Messrs.

In addition to the table's occupied by the Christian visitors there was a table exclusively for gentlemen of the Hebrew nation, at which were Sir Moses Montefiore, Sir Isaac Goldsmid, and about forty more of the same belief. The •tinner at this table was furnished by Mr. Liefman, the celebrated Hebrew cook of Goodman's- fields. Upon the removal of the cloth the " Non nobis" was sung by Messrs. T. Cook, Chapman, Hobbs, and Hawkins, after which the usual loyal and appropriate toasts, the health of the chairman, &c., , were drunk with the accustomed honours. The subscriptions an nounced by the treasurer were unusually liberal, amounting in the aggregate to nearly 7001. It appears that the number of recipients of the benefits of the charity is every year between 15,000 and 16,000, of whom 1,400 are in-patients and 350 women in child birth, who are attended at their own habitations. The funds of the hospital are in a wholesome state ; but, as they depend on the active benevolence of the public. and, as the public are generally benefited by the hospital, it is both charitable and politic for the public to be liberal in their contributions to the funds. ALLEGED INFANTICIDE.—On Tuesday Mr. Bedford held an inquest at the Red Lion, Princes-street, Westminster, on the body of a newly-born female child, which was found by a young tied up in pmaapner,naamndedlyßinlgacnknbttiir,on, coopninSga.stutorndeayonatfth c e rn w o e o s n ter i n as s t ide of West minster-bridge. Dr. Wright, who had examined it, said it was a full-grown child, and he was of opinion that it was born alive, and had died from want of proper attention at the birth. Verdict, " Found dead." DEATH ON THE WEDDING DAY.—The following melancholy occurrence took place on Monday last, at Glossop : Mr. John Rusley, an independent gentleman of Glossop, verging on the allotted period of "three-score years and ten," and wearied with single blessedness, accompanied by a blushing bride, who num bered sixty summers, repaired with a gay wedding party, consisting of the bride's fair daughter,:Mrs. Hurst, &C., to Manchester, in order to be joined together in holy matrimony. The vows were regis tered at the altar, and the nuptial knot tied, and all went "merry as a marriage bell." The bride and bridegroom, after spending a day of bliss at Manchester, returned home to Glossop, where they arrived with the shades of evening. On Mr. Rusley retiring to rest he complained of a severe pain in his head, and continued to grow worse, and, some alarming symptoms appearing, two sur geonsere imDmeaetdhiahtealdy summonedsentfor,b utth,ealas:m bride g roomedi cal t a o s si t s h ta e n n c a e rr w o a w s of no w a vail , bed appointed for all the living.

She was recommended sea-bathing some time back, but she shook so violently when she went into the water, that it was thought that the remedy would be the death of her. She has been laid up at Portsmouth ever since, and great fears are entertained whether she will ever recover the shoek.—Punch. FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.

PORTSMOUTA, JUNE 4 .—yesterday a jury was impannelled by John William Cooper, Esq., Coroner for the borough of Ports. mouth, at the Guildhall, for the purpose of inquiring into the death of James Alexander Seton, late of the I Ith Hussars. alleged to have died from wounds received in a duel with Lieut. rrawkey of the Royal Marines, many erroneous accounts of which have been industriously circulated ; no two of them agreeing in the causes which led to the unfortunate duel, nor in the particulars with respect to the subsequent conduct and condition of the parties. The jury was composed of the most respectable inhabitants of Portsca and Portsmouth, William Grant, Esq., banker, being foreman. Mr. Jenkins, of Glsport, and Dr. Allan, of Haslar, were then sworn as medical witnesses; but before proceeding 10 view the body, Mr. W. Minchin, of Portsca, solicitor, requested, on behalf of the widow and the executors of the deceased, to be allowed to attend and wateh the proceedings, in order that the ends of justice might be answered. The CORONER made no objection, but said he must restrict him to a certain extent : he could allow of no address to the jury. Mr. Field, of Gosport, solicitor, said he had been instructed by the friends of two gentlemen at present absent, and whose names were associated both by public reports and the public press with this transaction, to attend this inquest and watch the proceedings on their part, and he apprehended that there a ould be no objection to his attending with a view to protect the interests of those gen tlemen, which had been committed to his care. The CORONER said he should permit it with the same restriction he had imposed on the other party. Mr. Joah Bates Wakefield said he was a connexion of the unfor tunate deceased, and he felt it to be his duty to attend this inquiry, in order to watch the proceedings on the part of the relatives and friends of the deceased. On landing at Portsmouth a summons had been put into his hands to appear here as a witness, and it had therefore become necessary for him to obtain the assistance of a professional friend (Mr. Minchin), to attend here with him ; and he would vow that in attending there was no ill•feeling whatever on tine ',art of-- The CORONER here stopped the speaker, and said he could allow of no address of that kind. The jury then proceeded to view the body, accompanied by ejfro. Witness r ed This ( the coroner, the m e di ca l w i tnesses, and Mr. Wakefield, and re turned in about half an h.mr. Mr. Joah Bate s Wakefield, of 7, Granby- s t ree t , H ampstead road, Middlesex, attorney, w as th e fi rst w i tness sworn, and stated that he was brother-i n -l aw o f t h e deceased, James Alexander Seton. The body which th e j ury h a d v i ewed was the body of his relative, who resided at 4, Queen'sderrace, Scuthsea, an d was f ormerly of the Ilth Dragoons, b u t was, previous to his death, of no profes sion. Witness saw hi m l as t a li ve on the 23d of May; he was then at the Q u eb ec H ote l , i n this borough. He was lying in bed bs wasw th a e s miredca thel , i h g e e a n r t i l i). - c suffering from a wound, w hi c h was from the right hip to the oppo. site groin, passi ng over t h e b e l ly. Witness did not know how that mo w f r e . lu.in the i d r d ‘ e s es • (ena a e. si t i , i ch t t l ie i :wi n the e m t ed its Nt same ni st ' s i l t ie !: c ed s room,sf a w a s e g i I m quite positive the deceased heard the declaration of the medical men. The reason why that opinion was given was in consequence of witness's wife and himself having seen deceased ; and the inedioal man stated—" Your life is in my hands, and you must implicitly obey my directions, not to sea any one without my consent." Dc ceased stated to witness," 1 understand the medical men will not be able to Foncunee me out of danger until a certain day." Wit ness then said to deceased—" You have a very long sickness before you, and you must keep yourself quiet." In answer to witness's advice to him not to talk, deceased said, " Do you really think so ?" I believe the injury was received on the Tuesday, and I saw him ' . C - "IV i - i. night of Monday fortnight (the 19th of Mal), at the Lona. , which took place every Monday evening. Dancing was going •ii on that evening. Nothing, to his knowledge, occurred on the evening in question. Was not aware that any quarrel took place on that evening; on the contrary, Mr. Scroll and Mr. Hawkey ap. peared on very good terms. Mr. Hawkey and Mr. Seton were very friendly, and almost every day at the rooms together. Mr. Hawkey had not been to the room since the evening of the 19th of May. To the best of his belief Mr. Seton left the rooms on that night first. Mr. Hawkey left the same evening about five minutes past twi lve o'clock. Mr. Seton left the rooms alone. Mr. Hawkey asked witness if the ball which was intended to take place on the Tuesday week following would be a good one, and said It had been a very agreeable soirée that evening. There was a card-room ad. joining the ball-room. On the Monday evening no cards were being played. On the night in question about twelve gentlemen went into the card-room, which was also used as a retiring-room when parties wished to have any conversation. Among the number who used the room on the night in question were Mr. Seton and Mr. Hawkey, wha were left by themselves; this was about eleven o'clock. They were not joined or interrupted by any one. I,V,tness remained close to the roam in which Mr. Seton and Mr. Hawkey were the entire evening, with the exception of short intervals. A door separated the card-room from the ball-room, which was closed during the lime Mr. Seton and Mr Hawkey were in conversation. Witness could not hear any talking or anything that passed._ They remained in the card-room about ten minutes. Witness was present when they left. Mr. Hawkey was seated on a sofa near the exit-door when Mr. Seton left the room, at which time Mr. Seton addressed some words to him in a low tone, but which the witness did not catch. Mr. Hawkey did not speak. Mr. Pym was sitting by the side of Mr. Hawkey at the time, but did not speak. Mr. Pym is also a subscriber and a constant attendant at the King's Rooms. Witness had not seen Mr. Pym since the evening of Monday, the 19th of May. Mrs. Hawkey was present on the night of the 19th inst. Witness did not see her dance. The King's Rooms are under the manage ment of stewards. On the evening in question, Li eu tenant-A W o n ; of tant Savage, of the Royal Marines Artillery, was steward Air. Was not in the card-room when Mr. Hawkey and on the Seton was there. Mrs. Seton (wife of the deceased) was u at the soiree. Could not remember with whom Mr. Seton danceddmteing with night in question. Had seen deceased frequently with Mrs. Mrs. Hawkey. Did not remember Mr. Pym hear any quarrel Hawkey on the evening in question. Dicl with Mr. Seton or Mr. Hawkey on that ntght not dancing June Examined by Mr. Field—On the 2do f neither Mr. Hawkey nor Mr. Pym appeared at the ball; they were not the only persons absent. Witness saw no pecullariy about either Mr. Hawkey or May. Mr. Pym on the night of th e 190 ot f y. The evidence of this witne ss was being read over to him when the dispatch left, at five o'clock. MURDER IN GIBRALTAR.—An atrocious murder was committed at Gibraltar, on the 21st May, 1845. About one o'clock, while a party of convicts were at work in the house that is now building for Sir John Sinclair, at the South, one of them, named Thomas Anson, was reprimanded by the overseer, Mr. Samuel Walter, for neglect of duty, and told that if he was not raore attentive he should be reported to the chief superintendent, Mr. Armstrong. On hearing this, the convict followed his victim some yards with a knife in his hand, and seized a small crow-bar, with which he struck the overseer a severe blow en the back part of the head, which extensively fractured the skull, and pro duced instant death. The villain then rushed out in an excited state, saying to his fellow prisoners, " I have killed Mr. Walter, by God, and would serve any other fellow in the same manner that would dare to scold and collar me like Walter did ;" at the same time he held up a glazier's putty.knife covered with blood. He was immediately secured, and conveyed to the convict yard, where he was placed in safe custody to await the coroner's inquest, which took place at four P.M., and the jury returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder " against Thomas Anson, the convict, who was afterwards conveyed to the provost prison, to await his trial at the ensuing sessions. VIDOCQ IN LONDON.—Mons. Vidocq, for many years the celebrated " Chef de la Police de Suretk" in Paris, has, on his arrival in this country, opened an exhibition of rather an extraordinary character, at the Cosmorama in Regent-street. The exhibition consists of several and rather heterogeneous materials. In the first place Mons. Vidocq offers to the public inspection various instruments of torture and manacles which were used by him in the coercion of criminals, or against him w hen he was a prisoner at the instance of the French Government. In this de. partment of the exhibition are also inclnded the different disguises Vidocq used to wear in order to effect the arrest of prisoners, and Another portion of u rtahs Dutch m x u l t i oc i n b hg i t i aw o r n ht areli c sct o h n o s f i st c s o o ns e f s vi a deer c ra o al l b l e loe c f t m i t o h n eer it o w several objects that belonged to p ersons famous for their crimes. f , o r a d k n r s d a w o a . f i D ng ir s k in L w an a g te e r n - d c y o k lo , selection of paintings of the Byzantine, Italian, and Flemish schools, many of which are extremely curious and interesting. The third portion of this exhibition will probably be thought by most visitors to offer the greatest attractions. It is a collection of imitated tropical fruits, executed with such perfection that it would puzzle the best judges of horticulture to distinguish them from the real productions of nature. This collection comprises 60 varieties, and more than 4,000 specimens. M. Vidocq, who is now 72 years of age, but scarcely appears mere than 50, attends personally, aid politely explains to the visitors the different objects comprised in the exhibition. A visit to this singular collection will amply repay the curiosity of all who take interest in subjects of this nature.
