Mi.r. a COMMISSION OP LUNACY, THE EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF MR. BRENT SPENCER. A Commission dc lunatico inquirendo was opened orb Saturday in the Board-room of St. Luke's Work. house, Arthur-street, Chelsea, before Mr. Com missioner Barlow and fifteen special jurors, or whom Captain Bague, R.N., was foreman, to inquire into the state of mind of Sir Brent Spencer, Esq., aged 37, son of the late Gene. ral Sir Brent Spencer, described in the Commission as of No. 4, Prince's-street, Marlborough-road, Chelsea, bachelor, but now an inmate of the workhouse of St. Luke's Chelsea. The Commission was taken out at the instance of the parochial authorities of St. Luke's, Chelsea, who were represented by Mr. Thomas, the barrister. The Commission was unopposed ; but Mr. Head, from Afr. Steele, solicitor, of Lincoln's Inn-fields, attended to watch the proceedings on behalf of Mrs. Pelham. The Court was much crowded in consequence of the interest the subject of this inquiry has excited by the examinations which hue taken place at Queen. square. Mrs. Harriet Eleanor Pelham, the mother of the unfortunate gentleman, came into the room, and took her seat by the side of the Learned Commissioner, and she was shortly after followed by Mr. Wilson Pelham, her other son. Mr. Commissioner BAutow said the jury had nothing to do with the matters which had appeared in the public prints, and which would come before an other tribunal. The object was, to ascertain whether Mr. Spencer was of unsound mind; and, if so, to take the necessary control over his property. Mr. Thomas then addressed the jury, saying that he appeared for the parochial authorities of Chelsea. On the 18th of May, in consequence of information from the Rev. Mr. Burgess, the magistrates sent the police to the house, No. 4, Princes-street, Chelsea, where Mr. Spencer was found, under circumstances which have been detailed at the police-office. Mr. Spencer was natural son of General Sir Robert Spencer, who had left him by his will 2001., to be paid at his death, which took place in 1829, besides 3,2001., and 3,0001. to his mother, which would revert to him at her death. The disease commenced with some 'eccentricities of the mind in 1828, when some disappointment in love caused him to take to drink ing, which produced brain fever, and ultimately un soundness of mind. He might be restored by proper treatment, but until then it was necessary that his property should be protected. The Learned COMMISSIONER left the Court to as certain if Mr. Spencer would wish to be present, but the latter intimated he would rather decline. The following evidence was then adduced : Alfred William Warder, examined by Mr. Thomas —I am a surgeon, of York-place, Queen's Elm, Chel sea. lam medical officer to the workhouse of this parish. I know Brent Spencer, who became an in mate on the 18th of May last. Saw him the same evening, and spoke to him. His mind, in my opi nion, is decidedly insane. He did not appear to un derstand what he was talking about. By the CONIMISSIONER — When he is asked any question he only says "Ahl" or " yes." He does not know the value of coins, though he may know their names. He knew nothing about his family. He did not understand the sovereign when I showed him the coins, and said he would prefer the half-crown. Said he had been Will Watch, the bold smuggler. I asked him what he did ? and he said, " That's peo ple's heritage." I don't know what he meant by that. I asked him where he lived ? and he said, " Oh, yes, in the world." When I saw him yester day, and asked him how he was, he said, " Very well," but he does not always answer. I have seen him with a book, and he said, " That is a pretty - book." I said "Is it ?" and he said, " Oh, y es, about robbers, perhaps about clergymen, eh ? (Laughter.) He has been much the same since he has been in the workhouse. He is not fit to take care of himself or property. By Captain Bogue—He has not been under any restraint since he has been in the workhouse. Mrs. Pelham here made some observations. The Commissioner intimated that he could not officially recognise any person being heard, whether for or op. posed to the Commission, but would put any proper question which she or her adviser might suggest. By the COMMISSIONER, at the suggestion of Mrs. Pelham—When he saw his mother his manner was different, he seemed pleased, and showed her great attention. This made no alteration in the state of his mind. Thomas Keene examined---I am medical officer of one division of this parish. I first saw Brent Spencer on the 7th of June last. lie said ;be employed him self in reading and writing, though he had then access to no books. He said he had not left school, but had been at Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin, and had taken a degree at Oxford. He said he was in the habit of riding on a donkey, that his property was in the Bank of England, and he had received the last dividend many years ago; that his father and mother are both living, and that he has several brothers and sisters living. He told me he lost his eye at school or at play in Hyde Park. He answered correctly several questions in arithmetic. My impression then was that he was of unsound mind, and at all subse quent visits my opinion has been more strongly confirmed. During part of this witness's evidence Mr. Pelham made some interruption, which drew forth a remark from the Commissioner, that Mrs. P. must discon tinue such a course if she wished to remain. Louis Edward Enghleback, clerk in Messrs. Coutts' bank, said the payment on behalf of Brent Spencer, amounting to 1961. a year, had been pail hitherto to Mrs. Pelham, but 961. was now taken off. The money was paid by an order of Lady Garvagh, who was the executrix of Lord Garvah, brother to the late Sir Brent Spencer. The receipts, in Mrs. Pelham's hand-writing, stated the money to be re ceived on behalf of herself and son. Ephraim Simmons said he was an inmate of th e workhouse; when Mr. Spencer came into this house his beard was four or five inches long, and his nails very long; he was under witness's care ; he did not use a knife and fork when eating; he never washed or dressed himself; he was not violent, but on the contrary, very quiet ; if ever witness turned his back to him, he would throw his food at him ; witness heard him call out for brandy and ',sherry ; he was fond of raspberry jam. Thomas Cheeseman, another inmate of Chelsea, workhouse, who had also had the charge of Mr. Spen cer, corroborated the chief portion of the testimony of the previous witness. Thomas Tunstall, police-constable 96 B, was exa mined. His evidence was precisely the same as that given at Queen-square. John Thomas Ryder, Chairman of the Board of Guardians, corroborated the statement of the officer (Tunstall). Thomas Johnson, surgeon, attended Mr. Brent Spencer in July, 1830, for a brain fever. He was then sent to a lunatic asylum. He was of opinion that he was then, and still continued, of unsound mind. The jury having expressed a wish to see the unfor tunate gentleman, left the room for that purpose. He had retired to his room, and was walking up and down. To sundry questions put by the Commis sioners and jurors he merely answered by monosylla bles and confused sounds. He said he wanted to go back again, and he wanted to eat his dinner. In fact, his remarks were generally incomprehensible. On the return of the jury, the following witnesshs were examined: — George Ledbitter—Knew him from 1824 to 1830, during which perid he had been a gay young ma n . He had had a brain fever previous to about August, 1830, and he then appeared much altered. Henry Tembs, hairdresser —Was employed by Mrs. Pelham to shave and cut the hair of Mr. Brent Spen cer for some time, till about four and a half years ago. No one has attended upon him since. Mr. Wilson Pelham, brother of the unfortunate gentleman—My age is twenty-two. I have lived in Princes-street eleven years. I have n l o a t shtl a da tt No. e ee n t d oh ed d. doctor no w o a n is Sir George Brent Spencer during four or five years. lie has not been out du n ri a n lf g loyr t ta h s a ke t \e_e t n i n m h e yi — nela n rhs o i. t s out of f his roomrr have eoc t occasionally hima g s e io Tuthill. He was kept in the o o f o ma mind, be cause he was violent, and in a n unsound state and has been in that state for about fourtee n y ears . Sir Brent Spencer alway s t reate d me as though I was money. r u s s e ' o noN his B s y on t . he H c e o l i‘ cf m t . Johnson was ttere thirteen years ago. _ Brent Spencer was then out o f his mind. H e has been in that state ever sinoe. He has, two or three times, attempted to throw Mrs. Pelham out of the window, and also to throw himself out. This was in 1835. Since he had been shut up in the room he has talked about fighting, and wished. to get out to fight somebody. Mary Chalford—l have seen Brent Spencer this day. I have known him seventeen years. I used to live servant with General Sir Brent Spencer, and the young gentleman used to live at home with him. His father was very kind to him. Here several of the jury expressed themselves satis fied, upon which the Learned Commissioner recapi tulated a portion of the evidence, and the jury imme diately came to the unanimous conclusion " That Brent Spencer was of unsound mind, and had been so from 3d July, 1840." A woman here came forward and declared that Mrs. Pelham had kidnapped her child. Mrs. Pelham, looking much flushed, said, " Oh, no." The other woman was ordered out of the room. She then de clared that the younger son (Wilson Pelham) w as kidnapped from her by Mrs. Pelham about twenty two years since.

Hunt and Rosteel, goldsmiths and jewellers, New Bond-street, by means of a spurious cheque on Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smith for 200 L A person entered the shop under pretence of wishing to purchase some fashionable jewellery.

After some conversation on business mat ters, the assumed customer concluded by giving a very ehdu t good order, presenting at the same til‘m,aes Tho cheque o v c,2nollosAl.l, presented,e s a s d . Smith,si signed P it ay j n o e l , in an i t t l u C s o se ., ll, which of course was incorrect. As good grounds exist for believing this is not the first attempt of the same kind, nor likely to be the last, tradesmen would do well to be account there. The address given on their guard. The individual is about five feet six in height, sallow complexion, of dissipated appearance, and was dressed in a brown coat. REVELATIONS OF RUSSIA.- - There is no country in the world about which England ought to know so much, and does in reality know so little, as about the vast empire of the Czar, the principl e on which it is go verned, and the desires and designs of tho se w h o govern it. With one sole exception, the writing travellers of the last twenty years have appeared to c onsp i re together, ! as if by common consent, to blind. Europe —and Eng land in particular — t o the real views and objects of that 1 vast despotism which has reached its acin6, in the person At lengthan ` • person of the Emperor Nicholas. and one who appears to have had unequalled means and facilities for observation, has dared t o speak the truth about Russia, her govern ment, her institutions, and the fearful results to which they tend, fearful no less for Europe than for her own people. These " Revelations of Russia," just published, are the most startling dis closures of the kind that have ever been put forth, and is the social b so intense and stirring and political interest mixed up with them, that the withook has all the excite ment of a romance, combined all the homefelt inte rest of what it evidently is—ae history. The cheap trips on railways are becoming so common, that soon, probably, we shall cease to think any thing about the matter. On Thursday, the Madrigal So ciety, of Manchester, took a trip to Alderly, that well noted rendezvous on the Manchester and Birmingham Railway, at which place the members enjoyed them selves, as well as gratified many others, by singing many of their choicest songs. The day was spent in the ut most possible harmony, The fare both ways was only Is. 6d. The railway companies no doubt find cheap fares beneficial,—Lcals Mercury. LLOYD'S SHIPPING. NOTICE TO MARINERS.

' All bailiships bordering on the Jahell aro hereby ordered, at the request of the lawful receivers of such ' tonnage, to assist in levying it in the same manner as other public taxes, and t o decide on cases of dispute ac. ' cording to the foregoing regulations. From the do cision of such bailiships, an appeal can only be made to the Government. Grand Ducal Government. (Signed) MUTZENBECIIER BUCIIOLTZ. Oldenburgh, June 4, 1844. ANOTHER CASE OF PIRACY AND SUPPOSED MURDER. Within the last day or two letters have been re ceived from Dundee, communicating to the under writers information respecting the brig llannah, be longing to that port, from which strong suspicions are apprehended that the captain, Mr. Lowther, was mur dered by the crew, for the purpose of possessing them selves of the vessel and cargo, but afterwards their plans were frustrated :by the ship becoming leaky. The particulars, it appears, were brought over by the llibernia, steamer, from the Lloyd's agent at Quebec, and are as follows : On the morning of Monday, the Bth of last month, when the barque Scotland, William Hamilton, bound to Quebec, was within ten hours' sail of that port, two boats were discovered several miles to the leeward. The captain, suspecting they belonged to some ship wrecked vessel, immediately bore down and picked them up, when he ascertained that they belonged to the brig Hannah, of Dundee. The boats contained seven men, and the statement they made to Captain Hamilton was to this effect : They stated that on the night of the sth the Hannah encountered a heaVy gale of wind, and on the following day it was found she had sprung a leak, for there was upwards of two feet of water in her hold. They all turned to the pumps, and finding, after twenty-four hours pumping, that the water, instead of diminishing, had increased several feet, they urged Captain Lowther to take to the boats, which he refused, saying there was a chance of saving the vessel, and that he should not leave her. There being nine feet of water in the hold then, they determined to leave the vessel, and launch ing the two boats, which was all the ship pos sessed, they jumped in and left her, leaving the cap tain, without any possible means of escape, on board. It was then twelve o'clock at night, and at daybreak the following morning they looked round, in the hopes of seeing the ship, but she was nowhere to be seen. Captain Hamilton, suspecting the truth of these statements, resolved, the moment he reached Quebec, to acquaint the magisterial authorities, upon which a brief inquiry was instituted, which resulted in the committal of the whole of the ship's crew of the Hannah to the Penitentiary, the magistrates having a strong belief that some foul play had been perpetrated on board. A few days after their committal, a vessel that had put into Quebec re ported that the wreck of the Hannah had been dis covered on the banks of the Anticosti, and that it had, he believed, been taken in tow by another vessel, to bring her into that port. Her arrival naturally was looked for with intense interest, and on the 28th the Hannah was brought safely into Quebec, with very little damage. It is needless to say that the unfor tunate master, Captain Lowther, was not to be found, nor any of the ship's papers. The prisoners were to undergo a second examinatiou on the 12th inst., and in the meanwhile every possible inquiry was to be made. The Hannah was heavily laden, but the na ture of her cargo is not mentioned. THE WEDNESBURY MURDER.- EXECUTION OF THE CULPRIT, BEARDS, AT STAFFORD. Saturday morning, at eight o'clock, the extreme sentence of the law was carried into effect at the Stafford County gaol, on William Beards, who was found guilty at the late assizes, of the murder of Eli zabeth Griffiths, at the village of Wednesbury, on Saturday, the 16th of last March. Late on Friday evening the doomed culprit expressed himself as being at peace with the world, and pre pared to die. He retired to rest apparently much composed, and at an early hour rose. He was imme diately joined by the Reverend Ordinary, who re mained in earnest prar} er until the arrival of the Sheriffs and other official authorities. Ile repeatedly thanked them for the extreme kindness they had shown to him, and again acknowledged the justice of his sentence. He was conducted to the scaffold, erected on the summit of the front of the gaol, the open space be neath containing an immense multitude. The execu tioner having adjusted the rope, the Rev. Gentleman commenced reading that beautiful prayer in the burial service, " In the midst of life," at the conclusion of which the fatal bolt was withdrawn, and, :after a few seconds, the wretched murderer ceased to exist. His body having hung the usual time, it was cut down, and interred within the precincts of the prison. STATE OF TRADE. FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, AUGUST 16.—The partial decrease in the amount of sales has been appa rent in the foreign wool trade during the past week, but prices are without variation. ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, AUGUST 16. — We have not any alteration to notice this week ; sales continue steady, and prices firm. WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, AUGUST 16.—We have no alteration to note in the trade from last week ; sales have scarcely been so extensive, yet prices are equally as firm in both long and short wool. LEEDS.—There has this week been a very brisk demand for beavers, pilot cloth, shawls, and fancy cloakings, in fact, for goods of every description adapted to the winter trade. The supply of goods to the Cloth Halls still continues to be very small, con sequent on the manufacturers being engaged in de livering to order, and the stocks in the hands of the manufacturers are smaller than they have been for many years. Prices are a little higher in low quali ties, but fine goods are without any alteration. There has been a fair average quantity of business done in the warehouses, principally in goods suitable for the winter. BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY.—In the Piece Market there is a steady business doing to-day in merinos, orleans, and cobourgs, for the home trade, and the shippers are busy selecting goods suitable for the approaching German fairs, which are generally expected to be brisk, as the supply sent forward for the spring fairs was very small, the advanced prices having deterred the merchants from buying. The spinners are generally working to order ; old stocks are cleared out, and prices are firm. There is not any improvement in the demand for wool since our last; the supply being good, the spinners buy only for immediate use. Prices are steady. TRADE OF MANCHESTER, THURSDAY EVENING.— There is no fresh feature in our cloth market since Tuesday. The demand is steady, and fully equal to the production, indeed in some kinds of cloth the supply is hardly equal to the demand. The home trade is very lively ; a large business indeed is doing, and probably never a larger one was doing by our home merchants. All branches seem to be doing well. The dyers now are remarkably busy, a sure sign of a very good domestic trade. Twist is very ready sale, and, if anything, is again in favour of the spinner.—Leeds Mercury. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, AUGUST lB.—Five hun dred hhds. West-India have found buyers since our last, at from 565. to 655. per cwt., which are considered firmer rates. The transactions in Bengals and Mauri tius continue on a limited scale. —Bristol Illercnry. -- - ENGLAND IN 1830.—1 only wish you could read Arthur Young's Travels in France in 1789 and 1790, and see what he says of the general outbreak then of the peasantry, when they burnt the chateaux all over France, and ill-used the families of the proprietors, and then compare the orderliness of the French populace now. It speaks volumes for small subdivided properties, general intelligence, and en absence of aristocratical manners and distinctions. We know that, in the first revolution, to be seen in decent clothes was at one time a sure road to the guillotine ; so bitter was the hatred engendered in a brute population against those who had gone on in luxury and refinement, leaving their poorer neighbours to remain in the ignorance and wretchedness of savages, and therefore with the ferocity of savages also. The dissolution of the Ministry may do something ; but the evil exists in every parish in England ; and there should be a reform in the ways and manners of every parish to cu re it. We have got up a dispensary here ; and I am thinking of circulating small tracts a la Cobbett in poi n t of style, to show the people the real state of things and their causes. Half the truth might be of little use ; but i gno rance of all t he truth is somethi ng fearful, and a k now ledge of the whole truth , I am convinced, do no thing but pacify, because the fault of the rich has been a sin of ignorance and thoughtlessness : they have only done what the poor would have done in thei r pl aces , b ecau se few men's morality rises higher than to take c are of themselves, abstaining from actual wrong to x L tu if r e e ooffDl lard d Ar a n n o d ld. wood soot, otl A iers m . quan tities, is stated by the edito r o f the C incinn at i equalt' Ad vert iser,to be " the sovereignest thi ng i n the world" for burns and scalds. FATAL EXPLOSION OF FIRE-DAMP.—A frightful explosion occurred on Monday at the Crab-tree colliery, West Bromwich, belonging to Messrs. J. Bagnall and Sons, by which four men were instantly killed, and fire others so severely burned that they are not expected to recover. It is supposed that the " air lead" had become choked up during the night, and thuscaused an accumu lation of - explosive gas in the colliery beneath. — Ten Towns' Messenger. •UDITORO. It kNIEIIB.
