In the first volume of the works of M. Louis NA POLEON BONAPARTE, at page 95, in the chapter entitled " Project for a Constitution, 1833," we find the following passage :—" Le peuple Francais donne asile aux strangers bannis de leur pays pour la cause de la liberty," The man who published the above to the world as his principle and his opinion, the man who solemnly declared that " The French people affords an asylum to foreigners banished from their country for the cause of liberty," and who, on the faith of that publication and declaration, was elected President of the French Republic, has refused to permit Kossunf to pass through Fran a ce s . e o T flrt o ibe "t y, h , e wan banished from his country for the cause the author of these fine phrases has refused e theumsedai i asylum, polic. man of the Absolutis ts. e and the refugee of Thurgovia has be Of all men in the world, M, N A POLEON BONAPARTE is the last whom we e L h o o trs u i ld have suspected capable of the perpetration of s uch an act of pitiful meanness. Had the Govern ment of Switzerland quailed before the power of Louis PHILIPPE, as he has quailed before Austria and Russia, M. Louis NAPOLEON BONAPARTE would never have had the opportunity of thus exhibiting to the world the very peculiar manner in which he sup ports the dignity of the name which he inherits, and the admirers ofNAPOLEON would have been spared the pain of witnessing the nephew of the victor of Austerlitz acting in the capacity of second in command to the chief of, the police of 'Vienna. For the second time within half a century has the lustre of the star of the house of Bonaparte been tarnished by the malefic influence of that of Hapsburg. The son of a Corsican attorney had by his transcendent genius re-created the Empire of CHARLEMANGE ; as the incarnation of the democracy of France and of Europe, he had re duced all the legitimate monarchs of the earth to a state of vassalage, andhis ante-chambers were crowded with serf-kings anxiously awaiting the honour of an audience, who trembled at his frown and were proud to obey his behests. Suddenly this great and powerful EMPEROR, the master and maker of kings, forgetting his democratic origin, forgetting that his strength arose solely from the fact of his being different in every respect from these serf-kings, listened to the wily counsels of the tools of Austria, took an Austrian princess, to wife, and by so doing volun tarily degraded himself to a level with the Ro manoffs, the Hapsburghs, the Hohenzollerns, and the other defeated princes of Austerlitz and of Jena. Aus tria, true to her traditional policy, had accepted the alli ance of the man she feared and hated, only the more safely to betray him ; and so well did she play her base part that six years had not elapsed from the time of his marriage ere he was dethroned. The nephew of the great man is now President of the French Republic ; he seeks to be re-elected to that high office, and, until the events of the last week, his chances of re-election were greater than those of any of his competitors. The Le -1 gitimatists, divided among themselves, had determined not to start any candidate, the Republieans had not as yet agreed upon any candidate, and the only serious candidate in the field against hiss was the Prince DE JOINVILLE, whose candidature was at least as opposed to the letter of the law as was his own. his chances were, we repeat, excellent ; but he must needs seek for extraneous aid in support of his candidature, his journals boasted in the most impolitic manner that his candidature was supported by the King of NAPLES and by the Emperor of AUSTRIA, and, as if this were not enough to disgust the French nation—which is of all others the most jealous of any foreign interference in its internal affairs—we now find him ostentatiously refusing to accord hospitality to an unarmed and banished exile, lest by so doing be should offend the Emperor of AUSTRIA, and giving way to the bullying which even the Sultan of TURKEY defied. Those who advised him to adopt this suicidal measure, enemies in disguise, whoever they were, they have done that which is more da maging to him than could, even have been an attempted coup d'etat which should have failed. The French are a chivalrous and generous nation, who may forgive a crime, but who never forget a meanness. And what has been his reward ? That which should be the reward cf all who act as he has done ; that very party, whose support ho thought to obtain by pandering to the evil passions of the host of the Duke of BORDEAUX, has turned against him, and no sooner had the Legitimatist intriguers succeeded in making the unfortunate Louis NAPOLEON BONAPARTE fully commit himself by refusing to permit KOSSUTH a passage through France, than they at once throw (off the mask and proclaim General CHANGARNIER as the Legitimatist caudidate for the Presidency of the Republic, so con vinced are they of the irreparable damage that Louis NAPOLEON had dcne his cause by thus osten tatiously holding himself furth to the world as the obedient servant of the Austrian EMPEROR. We cannot but be proud of the contrast between the conduct of the English Government and that of the French with regard to the Hungarian exiles. The events of Marseilles prove the exact amount of the sin cerity and of the zeal with which the efforts of Sir STRAT roan CANNING were supported by the representative of the French Government at the Porte, as the mag nificent reception prepared for KossuTH and his companions by the unanimous British nation will prove to the despots of the earth how deep-rooted is our aversion to tyranny and oppression, and how fixed is our determination to honour and aid and comfort those who are engaged in warring against tyrants and oppressors, be they of what country they may. Agricultural societies are now meeting in every part of the country. Elated with the successful termination of the harvest operations, the farmers are assembling in all directions to talk over the various improvements that have been introduced or suggested, and to take sanguine or gloomy views of their future prosp ec t s , each; but, according to the peculiar temperament of above all, to hear the great men of the I districts --the Members of Parliament and local oracles—declare their opinions with respect to More favourable in general and agriculture in particular. Parliament o pportunities could scarcely be found for that purpose. Th since the prorogation of two months' interval person to indulge his own fane rn ies ent Tan h ild ad ri e d n e a h b i l s ed pa e r a t c i h . 1 theirwere ready bers, generally speaking, had found:htebc cular hobby to his full content. e o i u r n vi t y a y M b e a m c k iurr e t o to their respective country seats. to speak, while the farmers, resting afteyr exer tions, with pockets well supplied and ample leisure enjoy the creature comforts provided for th i e s. were quite ready " to eat and d r i n k for the good u se ' of their country ;" aye, and what w as more important to the. would-be orators, to listen to the west prosy orations with exemplary patience. The coveted opportunities have at length arrived. The men are forthcoming; but where are th e confi dent predictions of future success, of the s p ee d y rastpcitation of the inanimate monopoly, which was " not dead, but merely slumbering, ?" Alas I not a single vaticindtion is hazarded to glad the bucolic heart with favourable anticipations as to a re vival of the bread-tax. The "sliding scale" haangers, lo and since avowedly slipped thr oug h th e i r fi has not even the most zealous Protectionist there is scarcei ()us v en tured anddrii to dema n d a re t urn t o th a t iniquit n system.

Nov; they would rejoice in the most distant hope of a ss. duty ; but their most zealous advocates tell them (vide speech of Mr. HENRY DRUMMOND, at the Surrey Agricultural Association) that they " can no more get it back now than they can get at the moon ;" and, unfortunately, this opinion is partici pated in on every side, and none are to be found (PAUL FOSKETT excepted) with sufficient hardihood to stand up on the other side, or to hold out a single gleam of hope from the revival of protection. No, horrible to relate, they hold out hopes of a very dif ferent description. They dare to assert that the farmer is not absolutely ruined, and that, in the presence of the burly men who had just devoured sirloins and haunches to an almost incredible extent, and washed them down with flowing bumpers of no ordinary qualities, and in quantities proportioned to the more solid viands by which they had been pre ceded and who would leave the banquetting halls, only when the small hours had approached, and that with the confident airs of " persons well to do in the world," who could clink money in both pockets as they went along. And yet, their leaders had the audacity to tell them that they were not ruined ! ! and a ribald press indulged in vile sneers when any daring men did favour the company with a touching Jeremiad on the decline and fall of agriculture. Again, they were desired to exert them selves, in order to meet the increased competition—to try improved modes of cultivation—to resort to the appliances which science has rendered available—to get the best machines, the most productive manures, and to employ both in the most judicipus manner. Were there ever such atro cious insults? What, tell them to abandon the good old methods by which their fathers, honest men, were enabled to make both ends meet I No, why should they be at the trouble of thinking or studying —of solving abstruse problems, or rising with the cock to see every direction carried into execution under the master's eye. That was worse again, not to be tolerated for a single moment. But they got nothing else. Some endeavoured to ride off on the ancient and obsolete rule, that " no politics are to be spoken at the meetings;" but that subterfuge is seldom available, for the stentorian lungs of the assembled yeomen shout down the attempted invasion. No one as yet, however, has attempted to say that protection will or may be brought back. Many have eulogised the principle—it was exceedingly beneficial to the country, although the short-sighted people were insensible to its merits, but they are still involved in mental darkness, and there is no possible hope ! Others " wish they may get it," but see no reason able chance of so doing, while others boldly say it would not be worth accepting, and, strange to say, receive a larger proportion of cheering than any of the desponding orators. Let any who doubt the accuracy of our statement peruse the reports of the meetings of the Surrey Association, of the Shrop shire Agricultural Society, of Mr. 11013211 T PaLmea's address to the farmers of Berkshire, and the speeches of Sir JAMES GRAHAM to the mee of Cumberland, of Messrs. HARCOURT and HENLEY in Oxford shire, and of Mr. DIS RAELI at Aylesbury,— all will show that for the present, at least, the Pro tectionist cause has been abandoned by men of all classes, and that even the agriculturists have readily acquiesced in the free-trade principles that hare been deliberately adopted by the British Parliament and the British nation. We earnestly invite the attention of our readers to an admirable article relating to Ireland, which we have extracted into our columns, from our esteemed and respected contemporary, the Derbyshire Courier. Our excellent collaborateur has taken a perfectly correct view of the subject in tracing a considerable portion of the evils under which the sister kingdom has long been groaning to the absence of a circulating me dium adequate to the wants and exigencies of the country. The very life-blood of industry is wanting, and the extraordinary natural capabilities of the country remain undeveloped, simply in consequence of the quackery by which the national currency was reduced below the necessary amount ; and rendered incapable of performing its natural functions. The land was there r ude and unreclaimed, or at least not one-half as productive as it might easily be rendered. The labour was there which might have converted the wilderness into a rich garden, that might have brought the soil into the highest degree of fertility. But both were com paratively useless—the owners of the land were ruined. They beheld the broad acres that had been in the possession of their ancestors for centuries, passing from their hands at totally inadequate prices, while the working men were starving, unable to bring their only capital—their labour—into practical ope ration, they were either unproductively consum ing the national wealth, of which they might under more favourable circumstances, have been the creators, or driven into banishment from their native land, to seek in another hemisphere the means of liveli hood, which unwise and inequitable enactments bad de nied to them in the land of their birth. Why is it that these untoward events occur; that the machinery neces sary to bring the elements together that might be so beneficial to each other is wanting ? The solution is easy—the problem is by no means abstruse, There is, unfortunately, an absence of banking facili ties. The circulating medium of the country was suddenly reduced by about fifty :per cent. at the very time when, according to every principle of sound policy, it ought to have been largely increased. The boasted self- acting currency code of 1844 practically destroyed 2,000,000 of our Irish brethren, reduced the population about 4 per cent. below what it would have been under more favourable circumstances, leading to a reduction of 25 per cent. in ten years, in place of an increase to a nearly equal extent—and ruined landowners and left creditors unpaid. How soon will the long suffering people open their eyes to the real cause of their afflictions, and in place of fl y i ng from the land of their nativity, seek the abolition of that nefarious and unpoplar law that has produced all their misfortunes ? But there is still the pros pect of speedy improvement. There is an abundance of unemployed capital here, and there are numerous channels for its profitable employment on the other side of St. G eorge ' s Channel. The mutual wants may thus be sup plied, to :the advantage of both parties, if no absurd jealousies intervene. We trust that both sides nay at length be awakened to their true inte rests, and that we shall once more see Ireland pros per ous and contented. IRELAND. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) DUBLIN, MONDAY EYENING.—The correspondent of the Evening Mail, writing from Ballinasloe, Monday morning, 10 o'clock, states that the favour able result of Saturday's operations in the fair have had an important effect, and the stockholders are un willing to sell without a considerable advance. The sales effected up to this morning are comparatively few. Captain Gascoyne, of Ballinasloe, sold a lot of hoggetts at the handsome figure of 503. each. This is the first sale of this description of any importance, and there is every probability this will prove one of the best fairs for sheep that has come off for the last twenty years. The number sold altogether was 34,424, but no official report of the numbers unsold has yet been given. It is generally believed that the number of sheep exhibited fell short of last year by about 12,000. actor, the manager, t o whose ene rg y an d exer ti ons th e cause o of M r . B.

A man insured his life for 1,000/. at the Globe Office in London, and at an office in Copenhagen for a considerable sum ; per haps also in other places as well. He then came to Berlin to his brother, a tailor, and formed with him a plot for defrauding the insurance companies by a feigned death and interment. A medical man was bribed to give false certifi ' catos, and the money was claimed and received. But the police got wind of the affair, and on opening the grave found only stones in the coffin, which had been buried in all form. The pretended defunct is not to be found, but the brother and the doctor have been committed to prison. EXHIBITION TRAINS ON THE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY.—This company's ex curs i on trains last Monday = a ? conveyed wiretrcla of 6,000 Pen= frohl the .Eastern tii3- TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER!, 7, 1851. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC, We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Assemblie Nationale has a long and bitter attack upon M. TRIERS, which, from the style, we judge to have been dictated by M. Guizor, and which concludes with categ o ric a lly demanding, whether M. TIIIERS has, or has not, recommended the candidateship of the Prince DE JOINNILLE, and whether he does, or does not, approve of it. The Union, the representative of the BEERTER and FALLOUX section of the Legitimatists, is inclined to support the candidateship of G e n era l CHANGAR.• NUR, provided he will vote against the repeal of the law banishing the Bourbons, a repeal by which the Orleans family alone would profit. The Siecle says— " The position of General Changarnier is becoming more and more interesting and embarrassed. He is the candidate of the Opinion Publique, and it is pro bable that he will be the candidate of the Union. But General Changarnier, whose adroitness consisted three years back in giving hopes to all the royal fractions, must soon pronounce for some one of them. The Orleanists say to him, ' You are with us, since you voted last year for the proposition Creton.' The Opinion Publique replies to that, We cannot say if General Changarnier voted tho 'Teal of the younger branch, but when it comes on again he will not do so.' He will, therefore, contradict himself,' say tho 11Ies sayer de l'Assemblee. But the General never says a word. If the fusion was not dead, there would be ono means left to him to get out of the scrape—namely, to declare himself fusionist. How convenient was that party, which allowed a man to have one leg here, an other there—to be white and blue, Orleanist and Legi timist; and how the General ought to execrate at pre sent the act of decease which the Marquis do Jouffroy drew up of it I" The Ordre, the organ of M. TRIERS and ODD. LON BARR(); expresses astonishment at the conduct of the French Government towards Kossuna, whose only crime, it says, was to have defended the na tionality of his country with a rare energy. The Jesuit Univers is, of course, in ecstasies at the con duct of the Government towards KOSSUTH. He is guilty of two crimes, either of which, in the opinion of the Univers, is worthy of death—he is a patriot and a Protestant. In the letter of Lord LONDONDERRY to the Morning Post, relative to ABD-EL-KADER, he ob served that he had been aided in his efforts by a noble personage of Paris, The Patric, which is opposed to the liberation of the ex-Emir, in noticing this observa tion, asked Lord LONDONDERRY if he was sure that the noble personage of whom he had spoken was a Frenchman. This question has produced the follow ing letter from Count D'Ossar, addressed to the editor of the Patrie " Sir,—Your curiosity &lan be satisfied. I am the person who so warmly inte - ested myself for the prisoner of Amboise. I have always considered that his cap tivity was a stigma on Prince, and my only fear has been that the Emir, beis in ill health, might die before we had wiped i away from us. At the time of the accession of M. Louis Napoleon to the Presidency of the Republic my first idea was to request from him th.) release of Abd•el-Kader. He felt with me that the honour of France was engaged in it,' and, lamented to find in his Cabinet of that time the same opposition that he meets with at present. Lord Londomerry, Sir, is sure that lam a Frenchman; he has seen ne at work for nineteen years in England seeking to oblge my countrymen; and, it is precisely because lam a food Frenchman that I blush at seeing national honour sacrificed to puerile considera tions. France has loudl, exclaimed against England for keeping the Emperor Napoleon captive at Saint Helena, and yet she dare to detain Abd el-Kader a prisoner of war, forgetting that Napoleon was kept a prisoner by the whole of Europe, and that the ex-Emir is detained by France alone, to whom he surrendered himself relying on her honour."

They enact that the department of the President of the Council is to dispatch £ll affairs relative to the colonial possessions, with the exception of such as are at present specially directed by the Ministers of Finance, War, and Marine. They create a Colonial Council, which, in addition to other powers, may pro- pose, through the President of the Council of Ministers, who is to preside over it, all measures it may consider useful to the colonies. The Vice-President of the Colonial Council is to have a salary of 60,000 reals, and the ordinary councillors are to receive 50,000 reals. The colonial section of the Royal Cuun cil is suppressed ; that of the marine depart ment is united to that of foreign affairs. The report, which precedes the ordinances, states that the object of them is to increase the rapidity of action of the Government, to neutralise the effects of the distance from the mother •:ountry, and to make the action on the colonies as certain and advantageous as possible. The Captains-General of each of the colonies are to conduct the affairs of their several colonies under the control of the President of the Council of Ministers, aided by special cotncils. M.

Fearing that its offi cial correspondence with its agents of the United States and the authorities of Cuba may run some risk in its passage through the American territory, not en the part of the Goverment of the Union, but on that of mobs in some of the towns, the Government has decided that henceArth it shall be forwarded by couriers. The Ilerddo proposes to raise a subscrip tion for recompensing the defenders of Cuba. From a return published in the Gazette, it appears that the Treasury receipts of the month of August, 18.51, amounted to 123,16 9 A-42 reals, being 3,397,214 more than in the corresponding month of 1850.

The Duke of SAIE COBURG GOTHA has arrived at Berlin. The Emperor of AMTRIA arrived at Schoenbrunn on the 2d, on his return from his journey to Italy. RUSSIA. A letter from Kaliscli, in Poland, of the 27th ult., in the National Gazette of Berlin, says :—" Field- Marshal PALSKEWITCH has arrived at St. Petersburgh. His arrival was delayed in consequence of his having inspected all the troops stationed on his route. Part of the Gth division of infantry, concentrated at Mos cow, is to remain there for the winter, and the other is to return to its garrisons. But in the spring this corps d'armie is to advance towards the western go vernments nearest to Poland. Contracts have been entered into for the supply of stores to it. This is a proof that in Russia a crisis is expected next year, and that the Russian Government is resolved not to be unprepared. If Russia be forced to intervene, she could bring 360,000 men into campaign. In that case Poland would be again occupied with the re serve brigades, or by the grenadiers and the guards." decrees of the fourth Council of Lateran►, and those of Florence and Trent. He openly Asserts, for example, that the Church has no right to enforce her authority by might, and that she has no temporal power whatever, whether direct or indirect." The Risorgimento of Turin of the 3d inst. says : " Yesterday the Piedmontese workmen who had been sent to the London Exhibition returned here. They assembled at the Bourse, where they were met by the Minister of Commerce and the members of the Commission present at Turin. The men are perfectly satisfied with their visit to the Crystal Palace and to the great manufactories in the neighbourhood of London. When the Minister recommended them to be patterns to their fellow workmen by communi cating to them the information they had obtained from their journey, they expressed a wish that an exhibition could be organised, to which they would bring all the objects of their art with the improve ments which they had learnt in London. It is very easy to see that they will be very grateful, and will not forget the advantages which they owe to the generosity of their fellow citizens and to the solici tude of the Government."

ITALY. The coolness now existing between the Courts of Turin and Rome gives some interest to the following extract from the Latin encyclic letter just issued by Cardinal LAmnanscinisr, condemning and prohibiting Professor Nurrz's works on ecclesiastical law : " And further, although we desire groat consola tion from the promise of Jesus Christ, that the gates (,f hell shall never prevail against the Church, our soul cannot but feel excruciating pain, upon consider ing how daring outrages against divine and sacred things daily flow from tee unbridled licentiousness, the perverse effrontery and impiety of the press. Now, in this patilence of corrupt books which invades us on all sides, the work entitled 'lnstitutes of Ecclesiastical Law, by Juhn Nepomuc Nuyiz, Professor in the Royal University of Turin,' as also the work entitled 'Essays on Ecclesiastical Law,' by the same author, claim a con spicuous place, inasmuch as the doctrines contained in the said nefarious works are so widely disseminated from one of the chairs of that university, that uncatholic theses selected from them are proposed as fit subjects 'of discussion to candidates aspiring to the doctor's degree. For in the above-mentioned works and essays such errors aro taught under the semblance of asserting the rights of the priesthood and of the se cular power, that instead of sound doctrines, thoroughly poisoned cups are offered to youth. For the said author oath not blushed to reproduce under a new form in his impious propositions and comments all those doctrines which have been condemned by John 11., Benedict XAV.• Citegery XVI., 4a welt to by the' MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.

BOW-STREET.--(THIS DAY.) Henry aS'oaper was charged before Mr. Henry with having violently assaulted an elderly man. The complaisant stated that he was a porter in the employ of Messrs. Bramah. Last night he was return ing home through the Strand, a route which was un usually crowded, and he accidently ran against a man who was walking with the prisoner. He had no sooner done so than the prisoner turned round and deliberately struck him across the bridge of the nose. Complainant was quite astounded at the suddenness of the att ac k, and asked the prisoner what that was for. The pri soner, who had an impediment in his speech, made an unsuccessful attempt to explain himself, but finding that he was unable to speak sufficiently distinct to be understood, ho became frightfully exasperated and let fly at the prosecutor right and left, and the assistance of a policeman had to be called in. Mr. HENRY asked the prisoner if he had anything to say? The prisoner, who appeared to make light of the matter, stuttered so much that he was unable to explain himself, but he was understood to insinuate that the com plainant was the aggressor. Mr. HENRY said the prisoner had been guilty of a violent and unprovoked assault, and he should therefore fine him in the full penalty of 51., or in default of pay ment commit him to the House of Correction for two months. The money was not forthcoming and the prisoner was locked up. WORSHIP-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) A ladylike woman, about twenty-five years of age, who gave her name as Mary Benson, was brought up this morning before Mr. D'Eyncourt, charged with causing a mob to assemble in front of the British School, Cowper-street, City-road. It appeared from the evidence of Police-constable Hayward, 212 G, that about half-past nine last evening a great crowd collected at the place above-mentioned, where the defendant was haranguing the multitude, and calling on them to adopt the dress she wore (the Bloomer costume), and also to wait and hear Mrs. Dexter lecture. Witness gave information at the police-station in Featherstone -street, and Inspector Jecks, with a body of police, went to disperse the mob. In spite of their intreatios, however, the defendant insisted on her right to address her fellow-countrywomen, and on being told by the inspector that Mrs. Dexter would not lecture that night (it was last week her lecture was to have taken place at the above school), she said, if Mrs. Dexter did not come she would deliver a lecture herself. The crowd as sembled evinced the highest degree of excitement, and it was found impossible to disperse them without re. moving the primary cause, who was taken into custody by witness. It was stated by the inspector that the demeanour of the defendant whilst in custody, together with the pro perty in her possession, bespoke her to be a person of no mea❑ station in society. The defendant said she was a native of Gloucester, and she was so convinced that the costume sought to be established would be of utility and convenience to her fellow-countrywomen, that she had come to town on purpose to give it her advocacy. She understood that it was last night Mrs. Dexter was announced for, regretted her present position, and promised not to give cause for a recurrence. Mr. D'EYNCOURT, taking into consideration that she had been locked up all night, took her personal recognizances not to offend again, and ordered her to be discharged. SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY.

PEDEBTRIANISM.—Yesterday afternoon a foot-race, between ➢tanks and Searles, two noted pedestrians, took place at the Oval, Kennington. Tho distance was ten miles, or forty times round the ground, and, in addition, 200 hurdles were to be leaped. Manks gave his rival a start of 200 yards, but before half the distance was accomplished the runners were side by side. In this relative position they remained for five rounds, when Manks shot ahead and speedily gained such a lead that Searle, at the 29th round, stopped short and confessed himself beaten. Manks completed the whole distance in ono hour and thirteen minutes. JEALOUSY AND MURDER.—A letter from Finland received by a commercial firm in Bordeaux gives an account of a horrible crime :—Some months ago a tradesman of Borga, named Ansen, married a young girl named Margue ritha, of a highly respectable family. Although her conduct was strictly proper, and she was admired and beloved by all who knew her, he entertained suspicions of her, and kept strict watch on all her movements. Having at last obtained what he considered proof sufficient of her guilt, he resolved to murder her. Accordingly one day he sent away the domestics, and proposed to his wife to visit some friends at a distance. On the night before that appointed for the de parture, he stole softly to her chamber, and plunged a dagger into her breast as she was sleeping. He then cut the body into pieces, and packed it in a cask, He afterwards wrote an address to some imaginary place in Greenland, and caused the cask to be confided to a carrying house. 'I he Custom house officers having some suspicion, insisted on examining the contents, and, to their horror, found the dismembered body of the victim. On the top of this was a letter from the murderer, stating that, to avoid the scaffold, which he merited for his crimes, his intention was to hang himself. He added that after the murder he became convinced that his suspicions of his wife were unfounded. The remains of the unfortunate woman were given up to her family for burial. SERIOUS ROBBERY BY A FOREIGNER.--A German named Aronis Morjose has been robbed in Manchester of 1,6001. in Bank of England notes by an Hungarian refugee named Jacob Alter. They lodged together at a boarding house, Morjose being in the town as a buyer of goods ; and on Saturday afternoon, while they were at dinner, Alter complained that he was poorly, and left the room. L 4 oon after he left the house, and subsequently Morjose discovered that his box had been opened and his notes gone. Suspi cion fell on Alter, with whom he had been very friendly and to whom he had shown how to open a secret spring which locked his box, but he could not be found, a n d t h e pol i ce are now endeavouring to trace hint. SHOCKING ACCIDENT.—On Saturday morning an accident, which terminated fatally, occurred to a man named William Dobson, while at work at the Lambeth Water Works, Tnames Ditton. The deceased was employed with others in the erection of a tall chimney upon the works, and on Saturday morning he was engaged in hoisting a large stone, weighing upwards of two tons, by means of a wheel erected upon some poles. The deceased sat upon the stone while it was being raised, to prevent it striking the scaffold ing. When about 50 feet from the ground, one of the poles suddenly broke, and the ponderous mass fell to the earth. The deceased was thrown upon the ground with great vio lence, and when raised, he was found to be quite insensible, He was removed to the Fox and hounds, public-house, Seething-Wells, Kingston, where he lingered until yester day, when death put an end to his sufferings. PRESCOT, ST.
