z o mpeeefee.-- as se many diarent ahades and pbaFes the principles :rrreirkicle, and thfown upon them the most dissi .nilar tints and colours, will prove their eternal just- 1 ness—the showers will descend—the sun will shine, and knowledge and truth, which belong to that great Power alone, will continue to advance their light, penetrating even tc the domestic hearth, and dispel ling the clouds of ignorance. Everywhere the solid advantages of free-trade principles will be felt, for they alone can renovate the condition and ensure the permanent prosperity of this country. Those meetings will be suspended—the mysteries of life and death will hold on in their course—every day the ap pointed thousands will be born, and thousands more of mouths must be fed by that soil which is now said to be inefficient to supply the wants of those already in existence; every increase of the population will furnish an additional argument for the necessity of that great change. Death will continue as well as life—monopoly will have its victims, and free trade must sometimes lose its champions—others will follow that excellent being whose loss made Manchester one great place of mourning —(Hear, hear)—be fore we again assemble here voices that now join in cheering shout must be mute for ever ; but if it be so, as it is wise that it should be so, and if they leave the world better than they found it by the advancement of the great cause—it will be no unworthy consolation for them, on the bed of sickness and in the anguish of death, that they assisted in making it so.—(Loud cheers.) And when the liberated principle of vitality rejoins the great majority, should it meet there with those spirits of justice, who, in their day, laboured and struggled for the good of the human race—who wrote, in defiance of calumny and persecution, some grand work of philanthropy and improvement, let them be told to gladden even them that the seed they had sown while on earth had sprung up, bringing another harvest of their philanthropic spirits which pervade the world in might and majesty—that an other battle has been fought here and well fought for truth and peace—for right and justice, and that an other victory, one of the most splendid of all, has been won, and that those obstacles to man's enjoyment of nobility of character and utility to his fellow•men and hopefulness, for which his Creator destined him, have been entirely removed.—(Loud cheering.) The CHAIRMAN addressed the meeting in a few words, congratulating them on the order and decorum which bad always existed in their meetings, and ob serving that the assistance of a single policeman never was required. He concluded by expressing a hope, that they would all meet at no distant period, and by calling on them to give three cheers for the Anti-Corn law League. Three hearty cheers were given for the League, and the meeting separated at ten o'clock. FREE•TRADE BAZAAR. MEETING OF LADIES, CAMBERWELL. A numerously-attended and highly-respectable meeting of ladies resident at Camberwell was held on Tuesday at the Mansion-house Chapel, in that dis trict, for the purpose of hearing the Rev. John Bur nett deliver an address in support of the objects of the Free-trade Bazaar, to be held in Covent-garden Theatre in May next, and explanatory of the prin ciples of free-trade, and of the views of the great na tional Anti-Corn-law League. A. L. Saul, Esq., of the League was present, and took part in the proceedings. The Rev. Mr. BURNETT called attention to the greatness to which this nation had arrived ; but this greatness was not owing to the existence of the corn laws, but had been brought about by the indomitable energy awl the ingenuity of its inhabitants, in spite of those laws. By its commerce and manufactures had this country attained the position which she now maintained. By agriculture no country could become great. Agriculture supplied the subsistence neces sary for mere animal life, but the various works of art which tended to advance men in the scale of civilisation were supplied by manufacture. One hundred men engaged in agriculture could pro- Cuce more than 100 men could consume. Those who could not find employment in agriculture must use their strength and skill in some other occupation. Hence, manufactures, with all the elegancies and con veniences they produced—hence great cities, and all the wondrous display of intellect they contained. The Rev. Gentleman then went on very clearly and beauti fully to explain the rise and progress of 'foreign com merce, and having pail a high compliment to Lords Fitawilliam, Kinnaird, Radnor, Ducie, &c., for their support, by their voices and pens, of the free trade cause, and shown that even the present First Minister of the Crown, although he had turned out the late Ministry on the question of the corn-laws, begun himself to deal with them as soon as he came into office, he urged that Govern ment was stepping beyond its province when it marred the trade and industry of the nation ; that it was in stituted for the protection of the people, and that it acted unwisely when it set one portion of the com munity against the other. The Rev. Gentleman then directed the attention of his gentle auditory to the bazaar, and expressed an ardent hope and a be lief that they would work for it, and contribute whatever their taste, skill, and ingenuity might dic tate, and were capable of accomplishin g . He assured them that anything from their hands would be ac ceptable by the League as a " free-trade offering." Mr. Saul. entered into some interesting details re lative to the proceedings in favour of the bazaar in different parts of the country. He affirmed that somewhere about 50 distinct stalls would be furnished from as many provincial towns. He enumerated a variety of articles which, it had been intimated, would be sent to the bazaar, and created much amusement in his comments on the various articles as he announced them. lie then produced an ingeniously contrived article (supposed to be from the hands of a lady) which had been left at the League-rooms that morn ing, and which was intended to illustrate the advan tages of cheap bread. At first sight, the article ap peared only like an ordinary label, such as is used in bakers' shops, and bore the words " 41b. loaf, 7d." The speaker then drew a thread, and the inscription disappeared, and in its place a comfortable labourer's cottage presented itself. All around wore the aspect of contentment and peace, and the thick curling smoke from the chimney betokened the warmth and comfort that was within. Mr. Saul then explained that when the price of bread was low, as indicated by a label, the labourer was in a better condition than when it was high, for not having to expend so large a portion of his earnings in the first necessary of life, he could surround himself with many comforts of which he would be otherwise deprived. The Learned Gentleman then caused another change in the " il lustrative label," and an inscription appeared " 41b. loaf-9d. ;" and this gave place to a view of "a poor man's home" when bread was at this price. The view represented a miserable cottage, with broken thatch and dilapidated walls, the windows shattered, and altogether presenting a scene of wretchedness and woe. The speaker then explained that, as the price of provisions rose, the poor man's comforts disap peared. Another change was made in the label. An Inscription appeared indicating that the 41b. loaf was 11d. The picture associated with this inscription represented a barren, desolate wild, and on a shattered, blasted tree, appeared the words " gone to the union." The speaker explained that the operations of the corn.law were two-fold; it not only raised the price of what he had to buy, but it diminished the value of the only commodity he had to sell—his strength of muscle and his skill. He said, of the issue of the agitation there could be no doubt ; and whether the success which he anticipated should ar rive speedily, or be delayed, would, in some measure at least, depend on the assistance which they might render to the undertaking to which their attention had been called. They had it in their power to accelerate the great triumph which was about to be achieved. The proceedings were listened to tbroughout with profound attention. II "R"LE CASE OF MATRICIDE. KENDAL, AS I p tiof Old -L7.—lestrday afternoon the inhabitants of the town excitement by Hattonthe were thrown into a state of the great est ect that Mrs. Simpson, their respected neighbour, had b a mu fell upon Mr. Riclaernd rdered. Suspicion immediately lady. Early in th e eve nk m mpson, the son of the murdered place, Mr. Whaley, the respected minister of the to Kendal. They accompanied waited upon by a friend, hastened upon the Coroner, who issued his warrant fur holdin g an inquest on the body, and a jury was suramoned to meet at f Middleshaw House, Old Hatton. From the statement one of the female ohe servants of the deceased, it appeared, that Simpson son) had gone home on Saturday, in a state of intoxication , and foundthe 30th ultimo, his bed, upon which be insisted on her getting in getting up, which she refused to do , when he her on to the floor, and abused her in a most red man ner Last Saturday, being in a similar state, heru brutal re peated his inhuman attack , but in a more ferocious man ner, and seized upon the poker, and inflicted several blow w ith that weapon upon her. He left her lying upon the floor, whence she was removed by the servants to bed. On being informed yesterday morning that his mother was in a vary dangerous state, and that she was not expected to live long, he made an unfeeling answer. Ile afterwards gave the servant some runs, and ordered her to bathe her wounds, and said in the roughest language, that she would soon come round again. The family is one of great respectability, but the supposed murderer has been a drunken and dissolute character for many years. After the ev idence of the servant had been heard, the coroner said be thought it his duty to adjourn the inquest till to-morrow ( Tuesday ), that a pest mortem examination of the body might take place. The prisoner was then conveyed to the Kendal House of Correction. HONESTY ITS oWN REWARD.—As a brewer's ser vant was passing along the Bayswater-road, on Saturday, lie found lyirq in the road a bunch of keys, together with some seals, et rather curious workmanship. The drayman took them home, and in the spirit of simple honesty showed them to his employer, who advised the finder to look out for an advertisement, which would no doubt soon appear. Ulti • mately the drayman found that the seals and keys were the property of the Queen. An officer of the police went to the Palace with the tinder, when the Queen gave him 20/. as the reward, while Prince Albert added 101. more, as a compli ' znent to the poor fellow's honesty. THE €I73N, LONDs:WI THrRSDAY MORNING, APRIL lo; 11‘41. PRIN TERSt- PENSION SOCIETY. The eighteenth anniversary of this Instituti II was cele brated on Tuesday evening, at the London Tavern, Bishops gate-street. Upwards of 100 gentlemen assembled on the occasion, and the chair was occupied by Mr. D'lsra • i, M.P., who was supported by Sheriffs Sidney . and Hunter, and se veral other influential gentlemen. Aftersustice had been done to a dinner served in Bathe and Breach's best style, The Carmstsust proposed the usual loyal toasts, which were duly responded - to ;as was also " Success and Prosperity to the Worshipful Company of Stationers." Mr. SHACKELL responded to the toast. Mr. D'lsisAEta then, in giving the toast of the evening, said he relied with confidence on the kind feeling of the company, although he might, in doing so, well be daunted on looking over the list of royal, noble, and celebrated per sonages who had presided at former anniversaries of this Institution. He was, however, in some degree sustained in attempting to discharge the duties which he was about to do, but which be knew he could but imperfectly perform—first, by their evinced kindness ; and, secondly, by the fact that although he might be deficient in the attributes of a chair man upon so important and interesting an occasion, and be neither a royal, noble, or celebrated person, yet that he was at least one of themselves.—(Applause.) He wanted to call their attention for a moment, and, if possible, to interest their feelings on behalf of a charity that was founded for the children of labour—an institution which, although its origin was humble, its achievements had been considerable ; but not so ample as could be desired. He was anxious, not merely to induce them to support so valuable an institution, but to extend its benefits. They were aware, no doubt, of the general objects which the society attempted to attain. At this moment he believed it granted 50 pensions to those whose energies were decreased by age or by infirmity. Those pensions were essentially of an auxiliary nature ; it was not intended to support him whose energies had entirely failed, but to assist. That so much had been done by persons who were themselves struggling for existence, was in the highest degree laudable; but if they examined the statistics of the question, he thought there was no one present who would not be struck with the immense benefits which the energies of the printers' friends had produced. The number of jour neymen printers in the metropolis could, he thought, scarcely be calculated under 5,000, and if they took only one per cent. on that number, they would find the exact number of pensions would be produced which at that moment they were paying. —(Hear.) Now in every charity and in every institution in this country, there never was an average contemplated less than two per cent. ' • three per cent. had been the basis upon which all charities had been calculated.—(Hear.) He hoped he might induce them, that evening, not only to increase the basis of the purpose for which they had assembled, but to increase that feeling which, duly cultivated and carefully nurtured, would accomplish an object such as he had indi cated. He hoped that they would eventually afford assist ance to at least double the number to that which now it did. —(Applause.) He ventured to advocate not only the main tenance of the institution, but its expansion. When he remembered the eminent personages who, for a series of years, had advoeated the interests of the society, and called upon them to support it, he thought it would be useless to follow in their footsteps, and he would therefore go beyond his predecessors, and call upon the company, not only to sustain the institution, but to extend its advantages; and they would be surprised, if they carefully examined the subject, to find what immense benefits could be achieved from comparatively slight means.—(Applause.) Let them sup pose the number of pensions at present granted doubled— ' that the number of pensioners was 100. Let them take the same ratio of per centage, and suppose 10 of those pensions not auxiliary, but absolute—that is, given to persons whose energies had altogether ceased. If, then, they were to fix the amount of pensions at 25/. per year, and to the remaining 90 they gave, to the males 15/. a year, and to the females 10/. a year; if they were, in fact, to raise a munificent and ample charity, they would not require more than 500/. a year in addition to their present means.—(Hear.) He could not understand why there should be any difficulty in attaining this result. Adding that sum to the income which they at present possessed, it would make about 1,400/. a year, which was not a greater amount than he had known to have been received by other societies at their annual festivals.—(Hear.) There was no class of labour in the metropolis that was more entitled to metropolitsn support than that of journeymen printers. London owed everything to its press; it owed as much to its press as it did to its being the seat of govern ment and the seat of law. He regretted to say there always appeared to be a great lack of sympathy in this country in any charity connected with its literature. In every other trade there was more esprit du corps than in the realms of literature, if, indeed, they could call that a kingdom which was a perpetual scene of civil war.—(Hear, hear.) The fact was, that from alpha to omega there had been a perfect want of sympathy amongst all persons connected with lite rature. No matter what they were—from the most suc cessful authors to the humblest persons connected with the press—although the gradations were nnmerous, the hierarchy was entire. They originated in one principle—they existed by the same means—and, did they understand it, were con nected by indivisible interests.—(Applause.) But, unfortu nately, it had ever been the case that authors, editors, re porters, and printers, had never exhibited among themselves that esprit du corps that was shown by the members of every other body of men. Jealousy and distrust had always inter vened, and the time had now arrived when they ought to make a great effort to put a stop to those unfortunate differ ences. To him there was nothing more surprising than that there should be an uncommon want of confidence amongst men who were in possession of the greatest power in the world.—(llear.) thAtenburgh, the inventor of printiug, though he might have imagined the great influenc e which his discovery might acquire, could never have thought that its followers should, amongst all classes of the community have been the least respected and the most in want.—(Hear.) It was true the master printers had recently given their aid to the institution, and that they had done so with very great effect—(Applause)—but there were others immediately con nected with the craft who had not taken that prominent part they ought to have done. Where weretbe authors of England was a question which he dare not ask ; if he did, echo would answer, " Where ?"—(Laughter.) Where were the authors whose books sold? Absent.—(Laughter.) Where were those whose books did not sell? Still further away.—(Re newed laughter.) Why, they would not be heard of even in the immortality of the pastry-cooks, if it were not for the printers of England.—(increased laughter.) They had many other clients to whom they could also appeal—the authoresses of England for instance. lie knew of many ladies who had exhibited great ability in writing upon various subjects, not even omitting sermons, to be sold at bazaars, in aid of chari ties, and yet few of them were found to come forward to sup port the decayed of that class which was mainly instrumental in placing their literary efforts before the public.—(Hear, and laughter.) After a few other observations with respect to the object of the charity, the Chairman proposed " Success and Prosperity to the Printers' Pension Society." The toast having been drunk with loud applause, Mr. Sheriff HUNTER gave "The health of the Chairman," which was briefly responded te. The subscriptions were then announced, and amounted to upwards of 4001. " The Press," " The healths of the Sheriffs," and other toasts were subsequently proposed and responded to, and the company separated. COPPER MINERS OF ENGLAND The annual Court of the Governor and Company of Copper Miners in England, established by royal charter in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, was held yesterday at the Company's offices, in Old Broad-street, City; Mr. James Alston, Go verner of the Company, in the chair. The minutes of the last meeting having been read over and confirmed, The GOVERNOR read a speech which had been prepared by the Board of Directors, and from which it appeared that the operations of the Company since the last year had proceeded in a manner well calculated to afford great satisfaction to its Proprietary. The coal trade had not only recovered from its late depressed state, but was in a most healthy condition, and by the proposed reduction of the duty which had hitherto been imposed, its commodity was likely to still further increase in consumption. The tin plate trade had derived a considerable impulse, occasioned no doubt by the great advance which had taken place in the consumption of iron. The Company had not yet reached its maximum "make" of a thousand boxes, but every day brought them nearer to that point. With reference to the iron trade, the Company were happy to state that the expec tations held out to the Proprietary at their last meeting were in the course of actual fulfilment, and the Company were now enabled to produce a vast quantity of this material to great advantage. The Board could not allow that opportunity to escape without congra tulating the Proprietary upon the projected South Wales Railway. it would pass through the centre of the Com pany's works at Cwm Avon and Port Talbot, and greatly facilitate the transit of its productions. The operations of the Company in the past year were as follows :—At Swansea they had raised 46,476 tons of coal, 21,535 tons of which they had consumed. In the works they had smelted and refined 1,625 tons of copper. At Cwm Avon _they had raised 58,188 tons of coal at the old collieries, 54,718 at Oakwood, and 27,361 at Bryn; making a total of 140,267 tons; of which they had consumed 96,895 tons, and sold 45,487. The quantity of iron produced from Cwm Avon and Oakwood fur naces had been 8,070 tons. These works had made 42,431 boxes of tin plates, and smelted and refined 2,269 tons of copper. The Board concluded their address by stating that the Court of Assistants had resolved upon declaring a divi dend at the rate of Si. per cent. per annum upon the paid-up capital of the Company, payable, free of income-tax, on and after the 14th inst. The speech was adopted, and ordered to be printed and circulated amongst the Proprietors, on the motion of Mr. GoonnEAler, seconded by Mr. MASON. Mr. WARP.EN asked whether it would not be advisable under existing circumstances, to increase their operations in regard to iron ? It was calculated thet there would be a de tleiency of half a million of tons if the present railway projects were carried out. The GOVERNOR told the Hon. Proprietor that his suggestio* had been anticipated by the Directors, who were at present directing their attention to the point of raising more iron. Mr. Abel Lewis Gower was then elected Governor, and Mr. John Nix, Deputy Governor ; and the following gentlemen were appointed Assistants : Messrs. Alston, Enthoven, Ken nard, Lawrie, Little , Lo g an, Macdonnell, Moorsom, Paull, Pelly, Ricketts, Ricketts, Vigurs, and Walters. Thanks were then voted to the late Governor, Deputy Governor, and Assisnts for their past services on behalf of ._-- the Company, an2.....................thtae Court broke up. THE OREGON DECLARATION.—" These declarations," says the Liverpool Albion of yesterday, " reached Liverpool shortly after three o'clock on Saturday, anti their effect on the cotton market was immediately perceptible, activity sud denly succeeding to stagnation, and a change of purposes be coming instantly evident on the part of both purchasers and sellers. Throughout the day business had been flat, all par ties appearing shy of operations. This apathy quickly dis appeared, and, notwithstanding the lateness of the hour, fully 5,000 bales changed hands, and an advance of from id. to id. per pound was realised. To-day is expected to be a sin gular day in the cotton market, the speculators being gene rally on the qui rive; while others who are holders evince a mw a L ing r a eaf t ra N 1 ,C 4 andfl oo disposition to continue so."

Christie and Manson's, the disposal ci the rare collection of prints, drawings, pictures, &c., belonging to the late A. Geddes, Esq., R.A. Many of the rare prints, although extremely small, fetched as much as six and seven guineas each. BANK OF FRANCE. --- The statement published by the Bank of France contained the official account of its position and operations for the last quarter, ending the 25th of March. From this statement it appears that the specie in the Bank amounted to 266,290,265 f., and the bills discounted to 94,184,284 f. The other side of the account shows that the amount of notes in circulation was 256,317,227 f. ; balance due to the Treasury in account current, 119,458,411 f. ; and the balances due on private deposit accounts, 56,771,171 f. On a comparison of this account with the preceding quarter, ending the 26th of December last, it appears that there is : France. An increase in the amount of specie of A decrease in the amount of bills under dis count of On the other side of the account there is.— An increase in the notes in circulation of 6,442,607 A decrease in the Treasury accounts of An increase in the private deposit ac counts of 9,459,542 The private accounts-current,fas specified in the total ope rations of the quarter, show an increase in the receipts of 75,883,477 E, as compared with the preceding three months; the total sums received and paid on these accounts each amount to about 52,000,000/. sterling. The total advances on deposits of bullion amount to 14,978,000 f. ; the amount for the same purpose for the three months ending the 26th of December was 11,666,500 f. The advances on public securi ties were 5,429,000 f., being nearly the same as in the pre ceding quarter. The amount of bills under discount is about 3,650,000/. The specie held by the Bank of France is about 10,300,0001., against an issue of notes of about 9,930,000/. It appears, therefore, that the amount of specie, as compared with the circulation of notes, is again on the increase, and, the amount of bills under discount has suffered a decrease as corn with the last quarter, of nearly 2,500,000/. sterling. PARLIAMENTARY PAPERS. SLAVE TRADE—SLAVE VESSELS. (House of Commons' Sessional Papers, 1845, No. 73 ; ordered to be printed February 25.) (A.) Return showing the total number of African Negroes, landed for the purposes of Slavery on the Islands and on the Continent of America, from the year 1815 to the year 1843, both inclusive, distinguishing the number so landed in each of those years, and also the number landed in each year on the territory of each separate State or Power, so far as the same can be made up from documents in the possession of her Majesty's Government ; also, Cases adjudged under Slave Trade Treaties, and number of slaves emancipated in conse quence at Sierra Leone, Rio de Janeiro, Havannah, Surinam, and other places respectively, from the year 1829 to the year 1844. (So much of the return as relates to cases adjudged under Slave Trade Treaties.) (B.) Return of the number of Slave Vessels arrived in the Trans-Atlantic States since 1814 ; their names, de scription (as brig, schooner, or ship, &c.) ; masters names, tonnage, armament, number of crew, nations flag; whether empty or with slaves (whose numbers are to be stated) ; the loss by death on the voyage ; from what part of Africa arrived; the length of passage and date of arrival, so far as these particulars are known to her Majesty's Government : also, the number of all vessels clearing from Trans-Atlantic ports for Africa, and all vessels clearing from Trans-Atlantic ports or other ports, and suspected of an intention of engaging in the slave trade, since 1814 ; their names, description, masters' names, tonnage, armament, number of crew, national flag; whether empty or with cargo, and what cargo ; to what alleged destination, and date of departure. The first department of Return (A) is entitled "Cases adjudged under Slave Trade Treaties, and number of slaves emancipated in consequence at Sierra Leone, the Havannah, Rio de Janeiro, &c., from 1829 to 1844." It is thus classified : " Cases adjudged (place, date, number of vessels, number of slaves emancipated, remarks)." This paper comprises a series of 407 cases, , in the vast majority of which sentence of condemnation passed. The total number of slaves emancipated by the Mixed Commission Courts, 1829-1843 inclusive, was 57,639. There were two cases only in which prose cutions were commenced, but subsequently abandoned by the captors. 331 of these cases were adjudged at Sierra Leone ; 43 at Havannah 29 at Rio de Janeiro ; 1 at Hamburgh ; 1 at Cayenne ; 1 at Bremen ; 1 at the Cape of Good Hope—in all, 408. There were 20 cases brought before the Courts as to which such Courts deelsred themselves incompetent to entertain them, for which no adjudications took place. (B.) This Return of the number of slave vessels - arrived in the Trans-Atlantic States, &c., gives a total of 2,313 vessels and 657,187 slaves. Of these vessels it appeared to have been ascer tained that there sailed respectively, under the flags of France, 28 ; Spain, 297 ; Sweden, 2 ; Portugal, 565 ; Brazil, 80; America, 18; Holland, 2; Russia, 1 ; Buenos Ayres, 2; Monte Video, 5; liamburgh, 1; Denmark, 2. SPIRIT of the VIIBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAFr RS OF TRSTERDAt. G LONE.—The detention and opening of Zeno--; at the Post office was last night again the subject of an in teresting &bate in tne House of Commons. All at tempts having failed to obtain redress, through the medium of Parliament , for the individuals who had com plained of the serious infraction of their rights by the in terception and opening of their letters, the necessity for t erm i na ting the practice by legislative enactment becomes the more necessary. Mr. Thomas Duncombe —whose prudence and perseverance in the manage ment of this great controversy with the Government merits commendation — last night brought the question before the House, on motion for leave to bring in a Bill to secure the inviolability of letters passing through the Post-office. The debate was conducted with singular calmness and dignity. The acerbity which on former occasions was painfully perceptible in Sir J. Graham, and which was, doubtless, caused by the severity of the animadversions to which his conduct in the trans actions had been subjected, was no longer visible. 'Mae question has!, in a great degree, become divested of the , personalities which were mixed up with former discus sions ; and the high constitutional principles involved in the practice sought to be abolished were brought out with prominence and effect. The debate was thus rendered both dignified and impressive. The warrant of the Secretary of State secures indem nity to the Post-office authorities against the conse quences of detaining and opening the letters of indi viduals. The production of the warrant would be an answer to any action or criminal proceeding insti tuted in consequence of detaining and opening any given letter committed to their charge. But this does not establish legality to the Secretary of State's warrant. That point is still questionable. The Chief Justice of England, from his place in Parliament, has given it as his opinion, deliberately formed, that a general warrant issued by the Secretary of State, autho rising and directing that the letters addressed to an indi vidual specificially named shall be detained and opened at the Post-office, is an illegal warrant ; and that a special warrant for the opening of each letter is necessary to authorise the Post-office authorities to detain and open the letters of any person in their pas sage through the Post-office. While the law of the case is doubtful, the practice is universally condemned. As a measure of police— to which the Governments of former days had recourse under extraordinary circumstances of peril to the public security, and when the ordinary police was fur less efficient than it now is—the power claimed is no longer necessary ; while the extension of informa tion, and the jealousy which pervades the public mind on all questions relating to personal liberty, render the employment of such a power a source of disquietude and alarm throughout the community. The removal of the invidious and odious power which is now claimed and exercised, would also relieve the Government from the applications now made to it by the am bassadors or agents of Foreign States, to intercept the correspondence of individuals in this country whom they may suQpect of carrying on a secret correspond ence with persons in their territories. The answer to such applications would be prompt and decisive. Mr. Duncombe put this point with considerable effect : " If any minister or agent of a foreign despot should come slandering and sneaking to their doors, the Go vernment would be able to say to him—' This power no longer exists.' Whatever redress or protection he might demand, that they would be able and willing to give, according to the law of England and the law of na tions ; but with regard to this species of treachery, should he solicit it at their hands, they would be able to say—pointing to the new Act of Parliament- 4 Such power is no longer at our command. "—(Cheers.) Sir James Graham admitted the odious and justly un popular character of the power possessed by the Exe cutive, but was not prepared to consent to its abrogation. The entire tone and tendency of the Right Hon. Baronet's speech were subdued and con ciliatory. It is obvious that though the law remain un altered, the practice has received a death-blow. No Government will again risk an exposure and disgrace so humiliating as have been caused to the present Ministry by the detection of the practices to which allusion has been so often made. STANDSRI).—The important, but extremely diffi cult question raised by Mr. Mackinnon's motion, will continue to recur in Parliament until it shall be satis factorily set at rest by some law for the regula tion of interments in cities and large towns. We can scarcely hope that horrors like those of Spa fields can be obviated by prosecutions under the existing law, when we see the monstrous obstructions thrown in the way of the prosecution now depend ing. We cannot help thinking that the first step to be taken is scarcely a step in legislation, though it would do more to correct the present abuse than any law—it is to provide a sufficient number and extent of decently inclosed free cemeteries, if not actually in, at least conveniently near to, the metropolis. The excess once drained off in this ay, there would be little difficulty in making arrange• ments fur the existing churchyards and cemeteries ; but without some such drain as we speak of, we defy the wit of man to guard by law against abuses. amount he had legal proceedings instituted againq him, aA, judgment h,ing taken .-'it, he was thrown into pri>on, where he lay till the 24th of Deeemb , r list, when he made application to the Court tor its protection. He was then opposed by several of the creditors, and, after an adjourned hearing, he was ordered to he detained till the present. He now came up for his discharge. To-day he was again opposed by two of the creditors, Mr. Malims appearing for Mr. Day of Bull street, Mai cheater-square, and Mr. Sturgeon for John Clements, solicitor, of Fenchurch-street. Mr. Cooke appeared for the insolvent. The objec tion urged by Malims was, that the debt of 741. 10 . owing to Mr. Day, his client, was on an accommodation bill drawn by the insolvent, and accepted by a Mr. Rayner on behalf of the former. It came out in examination that this was not altogether the truth. and the objection was overruled by the Court. The ob jection taken by Mr. Sturgeon was of a similar character, the Learned Gentleman representing the insolvent as a person without visible means, raising money when ever he could upon accommodation bills, for which, in some instances, he was in the practice of allowing almo.t cent. per cent. discount. There were no assets to meet the debts set forth in the schedule. Mr. COOKE, on behalf of the insolvent, entered into a long statement, how the latter had been involved in some unfortunate trading expedition to India in 1842, which laid the foundation of his subsequent embarras u.ents. His HoNona did not think the insolvent had acted from fraudulent intentions, but that he had been exceed. ingly imprudent. The punishment he bad already re ceived he thought sufficient, and he would therefore grant him his protection from that day. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORFOLK ClRCUlT.—Norwich, April 7. CROWN COURT—(Before Mr. Justice PATTESON.) THE MURDER AT GREAT YARMOUTH.—Robert Richard Royal, aged 24 ; James Mapes, aged 24 ; and James Hall, aged 21, pleaded "Not Guilty" to an indictment charging them with the wilful murder of Harriet Candler, at Great Yarmouth, on the 18th of November last. Mr. O'Malley conducted the case for the prosecution • Mr. Prendergast defended the prisoners Royal and Hall ; and Mr. Crouch appeared for Mapes. Mr. O'MALLEY opened the case, and from his statement, coupled with the testimony of numerous witnesses, the fol lowing circumstantial outline of the facts connected with this bloody deed might be gathered : The deceased, Harriet Candler, was an old woman occupy ing a portion of a house in Howard-street, Great Yarmouth, where she carried on a general business, dealing in grocery and tobacco in the front room, and "keeping" and sleeping in two others at the back. These rooms, which were all on the ground floor, are separated from others occupied by a Mr. Catchpole, in the same house, by a passage, the walls being of lath and plaster only, through which the elighest noise could be heard. Mr. Catcbpole, it appears, is a solicitor, and occupied apartments in these premises as the lodger of a man named Yarham, who, as well as his wife, acted as his servant. Not long before her death Mrs. Candler had received a legacy, which had been long anticipated by her, and had frequently been talked of by her very unguardedly, and when it did come she openly mentioned the sum, which she said had fallen far short of her expectation, its amount being only 1501., which she had been paid by a cheque for 1001. on a bank, and in notes and gold, all of which she was undoubtedly well known by her neighbours to have in her possession Living alone in her shop, the old lady was in the habit of going regularly every night, about ten o'clock, for her beer, to the Black Swan public-house, hard by her house. On the night in question she went as usual. At two o'clock next morning police-constables Waller and Johnson were going their rounds through Howard-street, and, as they passed the house of the deceased, one of them pushed against the door, on which it gave way. On entering, they found the shop and parlour in darkness, but, by the light of their lanterns, they could see that a candlestick was on the counter, while on the parlour table stood the unfinished beer and the remains of a frugal meal, which plainly showed that the old woman had been disturbed not long after her return from the Black Swan. Not being able to make any one hear, though they frequently knocked with their truncheons against the counter and partitions, they lighted the candle, and on examining the counter, behind which was the till drawer, they discovered the body of the deceased, quite cold and dead, doubled up on the floor in a pool of blood, her throat being deeply cut on one side, while her head was almost smashed by blows dealt on the back with some blunt instrument, as if she had been struck in the act of stooping to get something trout beneath the counter. On the counter near the body was a knife covered with lard and blood. As soon as the sergeant came from the station-house the alarm was given on all sides, and among other persons the inmates in Mr. Catchpole's house were roused up, the bell being answered by Yarham from a window. When he came down, he, in answer to the inquiries of the police, replied that he had not heard any noise in Mrs. Candler's house, though he had been sitting up all night for his master till one o'clock, and that he had been to buy some rushlights at her shop that night at ten o'clock, when he saw and conversed with her, and left her well. Notwithstanding this, the po lice very properly searched the adjoining premises, and though nothing was found to implicate Yarham, he was taken into custody, as well as the prisoners at the bar, against whom suspicion was directed in consequence of their having been seen loitering about the premises on the evening before the murder and after it during the night. The strongest circumstance, however, arose from the discovery of a bag of money, bearing the superscription, "Mrs. Candler, by rail to Yarmouth," which was found secreted in the " Denes," a sandy district surrounding Yarmouth, by two women on the morning after the murder, who, observing that the sand bad recently been disturbed near a heap of broken glass, conceived that the latter had been erected as a landmark to guide the murderers to the recovery of their plunder. They accordingly dug near the footmarks of two men, which they particularly noticed at the time, and very soon came to the bsg and money. While so employed they saw the prisoner Royal hanging over some palings not far off, and apparently watching them, and they were soon afterwards joined by him, when he said, " There ought to be a check too." The property so singularly recovered was placed in the hands of the police, and it being stated by a private watchman that two men resembling Royal and Mapes had been seen going towards the "Dance," and to stoop down at the identical spot, those two men were arrested. Nothing, however, came out to justify their committal, and the parties suspected were all discharged. On further consideration they were again taken up, and on the 30th of December the shoes of Royal and Mapes were examined and pronounced by the women to make impressions exactly resembling those they had noticed in the sand. Beyond these vague circumstances there was nothing whatever to implicate the prisoners in the commission of the murder except the evidence of the man Yarham, who about the same time professed his readiness to make a statement of what he knew ; and ultimately gave the following evidence : Samuel Yarham—l am a shoemaker, of Great Yarmouth, and occupied the premises in which Mr. Catchpole resided. My wife lived with me. I slept in a room adjoining Mr. Catchpole's, over Mrs. Candler's parlour. Mr. Catchpole lived there at the time of the murder. I was sitting up in my room for Mr. Catchpole, and had prepared some gruel ; I was in my keeping-room next to the kitchen down stairs. The keeping-room is separated from the hall in which the staircase is by a wall. I went out of my house at a quarter past ten o'clock on the night of the 18th of No vember, and went to Mrs. Candler's to get two rushlights. She served me, and I had some conversation with her. My wife was then down stairs. In a quarter of an hour after my return my wife went up to bed ; and I went up about eleven o'clock. I came down again in a few minutes after. I came into the hall, and then heard a noise in Mrs Cand ler's shop ; it was a scuffling noise, as if some people wore walking about. I went to Mr. Catchpole's front door, and into the street to Mrs. Candler's front door, which I found fastened. I tried the door and knocked. No one answered. I saw a light through the fanlight over the door. There was something across the window. I saw in at the sides, and I then went through Mr. Catchpole's house into the back yard, and saw the reflection of a light through Mrs. Candler's keeping-room window, which I knocked at over the wall which separated her premises from Mr. Catchpole's. No one answered me. I then came back again through the hall into the street, and stood on the step of Mr. Catchpole's door. While I was standing there I saw two men ; one man was crossing the street, and the other coming out of Mrs. Candler's shop door. The man crossing had a bundle under his arm ; the man coming out of the shop-door put his hand up to put aside some obstruction to its shutting, and then he put the door to. A man and a woman were standing near Hou chen's-row. It was Royal who was coming out of the door. I said, " What are you about ?" .He said, "Go on, Jickey," or Jigger, I don't know which. He said to me, " B—t you, if you say anything, I'll serve you the same." I said, "What do you mean ? He said, "We were told she'd got some money, and we've been after, or have got it," I can't say which. Whilst I was speaking to him the man who was crossing went up Houchen's-row, and the man and woman previously standing there followed. I again spoke to Royal, who said, " B—t you, if you say anything, I'll serve you out ;" and asked if I lived there ? He then said, "I'll give you a sovereign." When he "b—" the I asked him where was the woman? He said he'd not seen her. I asked, " Wasn't she at home ?" and he said, "We knocked her down behind the counter." I said, " Good God ! you've not killed the woman?" and he said," I don't think we have, but I left her there—don't blow of an old playfellow, and you shall have a share in the dole." He then followed the other party up the same row. I then took the candle which was standing in Mr. Catchpole's hall and went into the shop. I went behind the counter on the right hand side, and saw nothing; I then went to the left hand counter, and saw the body of Mrs. Candler under the counter. I felt very much alarmed, and went back into our keeping-room, and considered about it. I remained there two hours, till Mr. Catchpole came home, which was about half-past one o'clock. I saw him when he came home, and he went to bed about half-past one o'clock, and so did I. When I had been in bed an hour and a half I was awakened by the ringing of the bell. I looked out of the window, and saw Sergeant Williments. I have since seen the man who was crossing the street, and see hint here to-day—it is the prisoner Hall. Cross-examined by Mr. PRENDERGAST—I first saw Mr. Catchpole, and gave him a candle to go to bed with. I had a hammer, and the police found it. It is a shoemaker's hammer. I did not tell the police anything. I had no ham mer, and so I borrowed one of my father when I wanted one. They found no hammer by itself, but with some other tools. I'll swear that when I left on the Ist of December the police found no hammer when they searched my place. Certainly not on Tuesday. The day after the murder they found no hammer there. Horn, the policeman, found my tools. I'll swear that when they found my tools there was a ham mer amongst them. I lived in London seven and a half years. I found my wife in London. She never spoke in public, nor' did I belong to the Socialists, nor did my wife. I was in trouble once for stealing books, and had a month for it. That was thirteen months ago. I was in bed with my wife when the bell rung, and I was asleep. Mr. Catchpole had been in about an hour and a-half. It was about half past two or three o'clock. I gave no information to Mr. Catchpole. It was on account of Royal's intimidation I did not make it known at first. I was safe when the police came there, and I knew they had found it out, but having been in trouble I would not give information. I have no other reason than those I have stated. I knew Royal was detained in custody on Tuesday. When I saw the poor woman I did'nt go round the counter. Her head was leaning over the left shoulder. When the men went away they left me standing in the street. I no ticed the wound by the side of her neck. She was fronting towards the street. I did notice it was a bloody wound, and saw the blood. I did not stay long enough to see how much. I went out, and put the sacking up against the fan light, and closed the door. I was present when James Hall was examined, and heard he was called "Jigger" Hall. It was not till after I gave information that I saw Hall. I said nothing about "Jigger." I heard him so called before the magistrates. It was a fortnight after I bad been exit mined, that I spoke of the conversation in which he was called "Jigger." I should not know the man or the woman who stood by Houchen's row. At the close of the case for the prosecution, Mr. PRENDERGAST rose to address the jury on behalf of Royal and Hall, and in the course of his address imputed to MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS CITY, TUESDAY EVENING. TIMES.—The premium on gild at Paris is 17i per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s.10id. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 59 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25 774, it follows that gold is 0.73 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advises from Hamburgh, the price of gold is 4364 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 104; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13 114, it follows that gold is 0.40 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The speech of Lord Brougham last night on the subject of railway speculation completely echoes the warnings that have lieen given under this head since the commencement of the mania. That a reaction must come, and at uo very dis tant period, is, we believe, the opinion of every intelligent person on the Stock-Exchange, the only question being how they realise larger profits, are uneasy in the midst of long the present state of things can endure. The jobbers, who from a period of comparative inactivity that almost threatened annihilation to their business, have come to another, in which prosperity, so fully are they convinced of its temporary character. The present speculation, it has been observed, differs in its aspect from all that have preceded it. The bubbles of 1825 had, for the most part, such an appearance of instability that reflecting persons could soon discern that they were mere bubbles and nothing more, but the present schemes are all brought forward with an aspect of public usefulness, and of possessing a sound basis that renders them the more alluring, while the interest which the Legislature takes in the various projects gives a sort of sanction to speculation. The direction of money into this one channel has served to keep up the prices of the various shares, and as long as no diversion takes place, the present state of things will probably be maintained. The discovery of a new and more profitable employment ofy by the capitalists whose advances keep speculation afloat, 1% ould be the first cause, it is thought, of that change which, sooner or later, must arrive. One fact stated by Lord Brougham is well worthy of repe tition under this head, as more likely, perhaps, to reach the class for whose benefit it was intended ;-- " A respectable clergyman in a northern parish, having saved about 5,0001. for his family, sent it up to a friend in town, with peremptory instructions to buy railway shares, as he was determined to treble or quadruple his fortune; and another person, who had accumulated about 2,8001., sent it to be laid out in these shares, but added, that as it was a small sum, his agent had better borrow 3,000/. more for him, and not be nice about the terms of the loan, and lay the whole out in railway shares."

P., the Coroner for Middlesex, went before his Lordship for the purpose of ap jßandrrjoyotulrirneefretsii,sieiidnnS(tinut.epsGrtn: plying for a habeas corpus, to be directed to the Sheriffs and the Governor of Newgate, to bring the body of Joseph oth the Coroner and Connor, who stands committed for the murder of Mary unless the prisoner eleehsee'(lsi with o f n t Saturday ,' t v h il e l was before them ; and the Coroner then declared his deter inbqeierycb,oll recollected that on th e mination to apply for a habeas. The Learned JUDGE observed that he was not aware that a habeas corpus had ever been granted in such a case. From what bad occurred, it appeared that a person had been exa mined before a magistrate on a charge of murder, and upon the evidence adduced lie had been committed for trial ; and the authorities were bound to keep him in safe custody until a gaol delivery took place. He (Mr. Baron Rolfe) was satis fied that the judges had no power to grant a habeas, and it was right they should not, for it was impossible to say what abuse of power might be made if a habeas could be granted ; persons in custody for very serious offences might oven escape from justice if they could be brought out of a prison on a writ of habeas corpus. The Coroner contended that the accused ought to be brought before the Coroner's Court, a nd observed in that opinion the Secretary of State fully agreed. The Learned JUDGE remarked, that if the prisoner had been improperly committed then some such an application might be made, but nothing of that sort was attempted to be shown. Looking at the whole of the case, he felt bound to refuse the application. 1 Mr. Wakley then retired. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, April 9.

Mr. Wakley held the adjourned inquest on the body of Mary Brothers last evening. The inquiry was wholly confined to the conduct of the police in connexion with the arrest of the prisoner Connor. Police-constable Latham asserted that he could have taken Connor into custody on the day following the murder, had he been permitted to do so by Superin tendent Pearce, to whom he communicated certain in formation which he had received, and who was well ac quainted with the person of the prisoner. Pearce, on the other hand, denied that he had received any informa tion from Latham. It appeared that Inspector Logan had failed to communicate to Pearce the information supplied to him by Latham. Mr. WAKLET said he had written to Sir J. Graham respecting the production of the prisoner before them, and that in his reply (which be read) he exonerated the police from blame, and doubted whether the Coroner had any power given to him to cause the prisoner to be brought before him. lle (Mr. `Wiley) expressed his intention, with the concurrence of the jury, to bring the question before the Queen's Bench, having been unable to obtain a habeas corpus from Baron Robe that day, to bring up the prisoner. The jury being unanimously in favour of this course, 1 the inquest was further adjourned until the 30th of April. FALLACY of the ORGANIC THEORY " MEDICAL ADVICE MADE A TRADE OF." TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sia,—Contending, as we do, that the diploma in medi cine only operates as a protection to fraud and had medical treatment, we think it right to inform the public that the filthy advertisements which disgrace the news papers proceed from men possessing diplomas, and, therefore, saves them from prosecutions. The fact of scarcely two doctors agreeing in any cage proves that the diploma is not a proof of qualification to cure. Diplomas do very well to sell, as exemplified in the lead ing article of the Times of the Bth inst., and that is all. Hygeists contend that every man should be his own phy sician, and once do away with such poisons asprussic acid, arsenic, and other anti-medicinal preparations (by which we maintain medical advice is made a complete trade of), and this grand desideratum will be obtained. It is for this principle that Hygeists have been combating with doctors for the last twenty years, and they trust that the time is not far distant when it will be crowned with suc cess. Everything goes to show that doctors cannot sup port themselves, which is proved by the present proceed ings before Parliament. We beg also to caution the public against being led astray by the speeches which are made at public meetings by eminent persons in sup port of hospitals under the present medical treatment. Such persons confess they do not enter into the question as to whether the theory of doctors be correct or not, and, therefore, we submit that by such support they not only deceive themselves, but also tend to perpetuate a false theory upon mankind. The articles, therefore, on such subjects which appear in the newspapers prove nothing—they may be termed the indirect way of puffing doctors.—We are, Sir. your obedient servants, MO RISON and MOAT, For and on behalf of the body of Hygeists. British College of Health, New-road, London, April 9, 1845. We understand that the consideration money for the purchase of Osborne House and estate was 26,0001. It is said to be 2,0001. less than was first asked for that property, when it was contemplated to be taken as a marine residence for her Majesty and the youthful Royal Family. AIARYLEBONE THEATRE.—We paid a visit to this model of a theatre on Monday evening, to witness the tragic abilities of a Miss Waverley Scott, who has lately joined Mr. J. Douglas's corps dramatique, and were much amused ; Juliet being the character, and our having been able from compa rison to judge fairly of its merits, we are enabled to state that Miss Waverley Scott is a rising actress, rather too embonpoint for the " fair Juliet," but nevertheless looked conane it fact. At the commencement she appeared somewhat nervous, but as she advanced she became the heroine entirely, and ap peared thoroughly to understand Shakspeare. We augur well of this young lady, and should be happy to see her at one of our larger houses. A farce followed, in which Mr. T. Lee, as usual, kept the good folks of Paddington in a roar, by his quaint and original delineation of the Frenchman. Altogether, Mr. J. Douglas caters well for this end of the town, and we heartily wish him success. En passant, his early hours of concluding the performance is a grand decide return and a great recommendation. SUDDEN DEATH.—We regret to learn that Mr. Andrew Jopp, ship broker, of 72, Cornhill, died suddenly on Tuesday morning, while at the Jerusalem Coffee• house. ft appears the unfortunate gentleman entered the coflee-room, about half-past eleven o'clock, apparently quite well, and shortly after retired to the water-closet, where ho fell down in a tit. Strange to say, a medical gentleman who witnessed the fall, merely called to the waiter to say that some one who was ill had dropped down in the closet. Ile left the house directly, without offering assistance, and did not return even to learn the result. Mr. Jopp expired almost immediately in the arms of the waiter. It may be in the recollection of some of our readers, that Mr. Scarr, the late partner of Mr. Jopp, also fell down in a fit, and died suddenly, about two years since.—Shipping Gazette. RIVER STEAM-BOATS.—Another of those rapid steam-boats, for which the Thames is so noted, has been added to the list of those already afloat and plying for the accommodation of the public. She is one of the vessels be longing to the Woolwich Watermen's Company (No. 13), and is in every way equal, if not superior, to the fastest of their boats, from :No. 1 to No. 12. She was tried on Tuesday and found to answer remarkably well, passing every boat with which she entered into competition. She is one of Messrs. Ditchburn and Mare's construction, and, like the others built by this tirm for the Watermen's Company, is of iron, but is of greater length than any previously constructed. Her engines are by lessrs. Penn, and are upon the same principle as those constructed for the Fairy, the tender to her Ma jesty's Royal yacht Victoria and Albert, but are by no means so powerful, as those of the Fairy are 120, while these are but of 32 horse-power. [ADVERTISEMENT.] --THE EARL or ALDDOROUGIT AND HOLLOWAY'S PILLS ! AN ASTOUNDING CURE BY THIS MIRACULOUS MEDICINE, AFTER EVERY OTHER VIEANS HAD FAILED !--See extract of his Lordship a letter, dated 'cilia Messina, Leghorn, the 21st February, 1845.

When the Learned Counsel had brought his speech to a conclusion, His LORDSHIP adjourned the further hearing of the case till to morrow morning. The Court assembled on Tuesday, at eight o'clock, when Mr. Crouch addressed the jury for Mapes. For the follow ing abridged account we are indebted to the Norfolk News, which contains nearly six columns of the proceedings on Tuesday. Mr. CROUCH said, after the long and powerful address of Mr. Prendergast, embracing all the facts and circumstances of the case, it would be superfluous in to address tnem very great length. It was come to this—did thew believe the testimony of that man Yarham, whom he should endeavour to show was the very man who had committed the mur der himself. This lie should endeavourto show by comment ing on the evidence of Yarham at considerable length. This, .aid the Learned Counsel, I will endeavour to prove. If you will go with me for a short time to examine the evi dence in this case, I think you will see that the murder of this woman, was committed by the very witness who now seeks to take away the life of the prisoners at the bar. If you consider the situation of Yarham—if you consider that Yarham was living at the same house where the woman was moldered—that he must have known the circumstances of the woman—that he must have known where the money was kept, and that by murdering her he might become possessed dell her money : what are the probabilities ? There was some evidence attempted to be proved on the part of the pro secution—that Yarham did not know she was possessed of money, but no evidence was given to show that he did not. Prendi rgast then called several witnesses to prove an alibi in the case of Royal, and Mr. Crouch called witnesses of the same purpose on behalf of Mapes and Hall. Mr. Justice PArresoN summed up, and said, respecting the testimony of the principal, and upon which the main case of the prosecution rested, Yarham had most foully per jured himself if he had had anything to do with the trans action. Against two of the prisoners, and particularly against Hall, the evidence seemed to be certainly inconclusive. The Learned Judge then went over the circumstances of the ad mitted facts of the murder. The great question was whether Yarham wasthe witness of truth. If that was the case the charge was established against Royal and Hall ; but it appeare d he kew nothing of Mapes. Supposing also, his statement was true, the man and woman whom he stated to have seen were unknown. The Learned Judge then recapitulated the whole of the evidence of Yarham, and commented upon the probability of i s accuracy. Against Mapes and Hall the testimony of Yarham did not operate, but, as against Royal, if he was the witness of truth, he made out something like a case. The jury consulted for about ten minutes, and returned a verdict of "Not Guilty." Upon the verdict being pronounced, Royal, whose counte nance bad undergone no change upon hearing this women ' tous decision, said, with a slight bow to the jury, " Thank you, gentlemen," and resumed his seat in the dock, from which, however, he and his companions were speedily removed. During the latter portion of the trial the excitement which had prevailed on the previous day had considerably abated, ' and the strong impression which seemed to pervade the I crowd assembled in the Court was, that the testimony of Yarham, upon whom the main case for the prosecution-de pended, could not be received by the jury, wore off much of I that anxiety which would otherwise have been felt for the L decision of the jury, had the case for the prosecution been supported by less questionable evidence. When the verdict ' was pronounced, no one amongst the vast crowd expressed, by look or gesture, the least surprise; all appeared to be pre pared for an acquittal of the prisoners. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) Norwich, Nine o'Clock, Tuesday Evening. The witness Yarhum is just, discharged from tha Castle. A mob instantly recognised him, and is at this moment hoot ing him from street to street. The verdict of the jury is pre sumed to be founded on the assumption that Yarham was implicated in the murder, and that his turning approver was a deliberate design to fix the crime on three innocent men. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COUR 4". !ILI) COI (Before \I r. Justice CorirmAs.) PosT-OFFICE ROBBERY.—Edward Spicer, a mail guard, was indicted for stealing a post letter containing one brace let, one brooch, one ring, and other articles, value 20/. the property of the Postmaster-General. He was also charged with stealing a post letter c mtaining two bank notes and moneys, the property of he Postmaster-General. The Solicitor Gene; al and Mr. Adolphus appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Clarkson for the defence of the prisoner. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL opened the case by detailing the facts, which will be more fully proved in the evidence. Several clerks from the Post-office were called to prove that a letter addressed Mrs. Ludlam, Charmouth, Dorset, was posted on the night of the 18th Jan., and after wards sealed and delivered into the custody of the prisoner, who was the guard in charge It was further proved that the letter did not arrive at its desti nation next day, and that one of the notes was traced to the residence of the brother who accounted for its pos session by saying that the prisoner had given it to him for change. When the prisoner was taken into custody he ac counted for the fact of the note being in his possession by saying that ten sovereigns were given by him in change for the ten-pound note at the Southampton terminus. A con stable was afterwards sent to the prisoner's house, at Southampton, and the missing note for 5/ was foun i there. The prisoner accounted for it by saying that he had received it from the same person who had given him the other. After some further evidence. the Learned JUDGE summed up, and the jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The prisoner was then arraigned upon the first charge, but on the advice of his counsel, pleaded Guilty. The sen tences were in both ca'es deferred. THE MURDER AT HAMPSTEAD. In the course of the day the Grand Jury came into Court, and handed to Mr. Straight, the Deputy Clerk of Arraigns, a true bill against Thomas Henry Rocker for murder, and also a true bill against the same prisoner for felony. Mr. BODKIN, who is instructed on behalf of the Crown, ad dressed the Court, and said it would be a great convenience, both to the prosecution and to the defence, if a day were ap pointed for the trial of the prisoner, against whom the Grand Jury had just returned true bills. He suggested that Friday should be named for the trial. • Mr. Justice COLTMAN said he had no objection. The Court adjourned at Five o'clock. NEW CO URT. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) STEALING FAT.—Joseph Easton aged 24, and William Court, aged 40, journeymen butchers, were convicted of stealing 561bs of fat from the premises of Mr. Palmer, a butcher, at Poplar, on the morning of the 14th of March last. The prisoner Easton was in the employment of the prosecutor, and Court was occasionally employed by him. They were observed to take away the fat by a neighbour of the prosecutor, in a sack, on the morning in question. Court, when taken into custody, said Easton gave the fat to him. They were sentenced to six months' imprisonment. STEALING A Col T.— Samuel Orford, aged 21, de scribed as a japanner, was indicted for stealing a coat, value 18s., from the shop-door of Mr. Edwards, a tailor, in Newgete-street, on the 19th of March. The coat was fitted on a " dummy," which stood at the prosecutor's shop door, and on the day in question it was knocked down by the prisoner, who stripped the eoat from it, and made off at the top of his speed, but was immediately stopp-d and taken into custody. The prisoner stated that he was passing by the shop door, and found the coat lying on the pavement; that he picked it up and walked away with it. Tne prosecutor denied that the " dummy" could have fallen down by accidwnt, as it was fastened to the wall with a string. and said that the prisoner ram as fast as his legs could carry him. The jury toun-t bite Guilty. The CuMMON SERGEANT (to Mr. Jo,as, the person having charge of the prisoner in the do k)—Do )ou know him? Mr. Jonas—tie is not known in N , .wgate. The COMMON SERGEANT (to the prisoner)—Do 3ou know toe? Prisoner—Nu, I do not; I have never been here before. Mr. Jonas said he understood that the prisoner had been convicted at the Surrey sessions during the last six months. A police-constable said he had been convicted of steal ing two coats at the Surrey sessions, and had b..en net of prison between four and five mouths. The ColemoN SERGEANT—I am certain I have !Wen you here before. However, as no one appears to knotv you here, I shall not act upon th.t. After having s• n tenced the prisoner to six moot s' imprisonment, he s , ed, Now it is all over, tell me what _I tred you for ? Pri soner—l r ally never was her before. STEALING Two CHESTS of TEA. Richat d Langdell and Ft edet ich Payne, labourers, were indicted for break ing and entering the warehouse of Mr. John Symonds, proprietor of the Saracen's (lead book ng-effi, e, Ald gate, and stealing 190Ihs. of tea, value 35L, and Thotnas Emig , idye, a cab-driver, was indicted for receiving the same, well knowing it to have been stolen. From the statement of the Counsel for the pr, sec ution, Mr. DOANE, and from the evidence adduced, it appeared that Langdell had at one time been in the service of Mr. Symonds, as ostler, and was well acquainted with the pre mises. Payne had obtained permission from Mr. Odell, the bookkeeper, to put up dogs now and then in the yard. hi Thursday, the 13th of March, Langdell was observed to go to,the warehouse door, to take the key out of it and make an impression of it in red putty, which he had in a small tin box. During a great portion of the day following he and Payne were observed to sit at the window of the " tap' attached to the booking-office, which commanded a view of the warehouse door, and where they could observe all the goods placed therein the course of that day. Amongst other articles placed there on Satur day, for the purpose of being sent off on the following Monday, were two chests of tea. Payne and Langdell were in the " tap" during nearly the whole of Sunday, and were last seen there between seven and eight o'clock in the evening. About nine o'clock a rumbling noise was heard in the warehouse. About that hour a cab, driven by the prisoner Etteridge, came into the yard. Soon after Payne and Langdell were seen standing be tween the cab and the warehouse door, which drove off. Payne went with it. Langdell went to his dogs, liberated them, and ran after the cab. Tho whole of the prisoners were taken into custody in the Blue Boar-yard the same night. Etteridge said he was engaged to drive Langdell and Payne and two sacks (the tea was taken out of the boxes, which were broken up and left in the warehouse) to Pettieost-lane. He had some drink with them at the White Horse, and left them and the sacks at the corner of the lane. Payne had 71. on him and it was proved that the day before the robbery he had asked a person whom he knew to lend him 6d. Mr. O'BRIEN and Mr. BALLANTINE then addressed the jury for Payne and Etteridge. The jury found Payne and Langdell Guilty, and Ac quitted Etteridge. The COMMON SERGEANT said he was tratnd to fulfil the intentions of the Act of Parliament. and that it was his duty to sentence them to transporattion for ten years FATAL AcclDENT.—Yesterday, at an early hour, the family of Mr. Wood, the extensive coal-merchant of Hungerfurd Wharf, Strand, were deprived of one of their family under the following circumstances :—lt appeared that Mr. Wood, jun., who was a lighterman, was in the act of removing a barge of coals in shore, while, when on the gun whale, his foot slipped and he fell overboard ; when, unfor tunately, before assistance could be rendered him, he was drowned.
