THE low eulogiu ms like these, transparent flatteries like these, become rather nauseous when ap lied directly to the men flattered and eulogised. Theisare drunk in, doubtless, by greedy ears, and are welcomed by fervent acclamations, but when they come to be reduced to print next day they appear with a somewhat sorry grace in black.and-white. Added to all which, Mr. COBDEN is damaging the very cause he is attempting to advance by the erro neous and mistaken manner of its advocacy. For surely it stands to reason that—if the men in the upper galleries of a theatre are so conspicuously en lightened—if the spokesmen among these toilers of the community are the most gifted individuals in the land from the circumstance of their not being the spokesmen of the middle and the higher classes—if all this be really the case, as Mr. COBDEN says it is, why then common sense tells us that no very pressing necessity can, by possibility, exist for abolishing these same vilified and vituperated taxes upon knowledge. With enlightenment so peculiarly diffused among the working people of the United Kingdom—where the want of dissipating their ignorance ? With such exquisite refinement of intellect, and such delicate sensitiveness of disposi tion—where the need of removing imposts said to weigh so heavily upon both the popular mind and the popular temperament ? Again we say with Mr. BuacuELL—Fudge 1 It is precisely because the humbler classes are not so enlightened, so refined, and so remarkable for their blending of knowledge and morality, that we are just now advocating with all the ardour of enthusiasm the need of the remis sion of these same taxes upon knowledge. It is precisely because we cannot recognize among our artizans and labouring population generally the tokens of any such moral and mental advance ment as the one here prematurely panegyrised by the Member for the West Riding, that we; are solicitous to witness the organization of a regular system of na tional education, and to behold, with this purpose in view, the removal of the duties at present affixed to the materials requisite for its diffusion. Satisfied upon these points, we have too sincerely and earnestly at heart the interests of the working classes as a body, to listen with indifference to any such ill-timed and most injudicious arguments. We are too really anxious to recognize the carrying out of the present movement against the pernicious taxes on paper and advertisements, to regard with indiffer ence the articulation of sentiments which cannot fail to retard the progress of the beneficent agitation. It is, therefore, with feelings of genuine regret that we perceive the abilities and the influence of Mr. COB DEN so egregiously and miserably misapplied as they appear to us to have been on the occasion of the im portant meeting yesterday convened in St. Martin's Hall, Long Acre. Let him restrict himself to the logical illustration of an abuse, and to the manly advocacy of a reform, without striving to ingratiate himself with his auditors and the work ing people generally, by any such melancholy toady ings and flatteries. He will .then find no reason whatever to dread the accusation of being a success ful or a disappointed demagogue, and give no cause either for the regret of his admirers or the derision of his antagonists. Substantial testimony has already been afforded that the promoters of the Exhibition are no mere dreamers—that testimony being the Crystal Palace of Industry. From the magnitude of that remarkable edifice, the scale of the entire undertaking may be in some measure estimated. From the symmetry of its proportions, some faint idea may be formed of the skill employed in the general conduct of the enter prise. For not less care has been devoted to the arrangements of the Exposition by the Commis sioners than has been manifestly dedicated to the fa brication of its home of glass and iron by the con tractors and the architect. The manifold regulations required to be enforced betimes 'by the former, with a view to simplify in some degree matters which must otherwise have remained inextricably confused if only by reason of their very multiplicity, would be scarcely credible but for the remembrance that the festival about to be celebrated is one enlisting the sympathies of the various nations of both hemispheres. The enormous extent of the preparations, in short, would be more than sufficient to bewilder any but men as amply qualified as the members of the Royal Commission. Naturally enough the vastness of these same preparations ha s awakened among the more sanguine hopes in the highest degree chimerical and illusory. Instead of looking upon the scheme simply as one calculated to impart a wholesome stimulus to the industry and ingenuity of the multitude throughout the globe, they have pictured to themselves, as the consequence of the Exhibition, the dawn of an age of peace which the union of science and religion may ultimately perfect to a millennium. Thus, at least, we should interpret the predictions. As if any better result could possibly anticipate, than the one we have already hinted at, the encouragement of handi craft and the applause of philosophical ex periment, the excitement, in short, of a genial and beneficial emulation among the labouring classes, of the different nations of Christendom ! Ont of the extravagance of these very fantastic prophecies of good have come equally exaggerated and erroneous forebodings of evil as the result of the entire enter. prise. Warnings of the most sinister kind ima ginable have been croaked about by the human ravens of the community—the project appearing in their eyes a perilous provocation of all the ills re.. puted to have emanated from the box of PANDORA. " Pride shall have a fall," is the text of these lugu brious inuendoes : and in proportion to the pleasure evinced by the masses generally speaking in the pro gress of the arrangements, have their dismal hints as to their issue become more audible. Now, without indulging any ridiculous visions of advantage as likely, to our thinking, to accrue to the people from the approaching Exhibition of Inter national Industry, we must confess at once that we are very far indeed from participating in the alarm of those who look forward to its commencement as to the beginning of a great calamity. Oa the contrary, we find ourselves disposed to await with feelings of confident satisfaction the opening of the Crystal Palace, calculated, as we are convinced it is, to forward in a very great way the blessed labours of civilization. That it may be the ulterior means of placing mankind at large on a more amiable footing in regard to each other we believe, and hence we are not altogether disinclined to view the undertaking as the probable medium through which the chances of war may be somewhat diminished, and, at any rate, through which its rigours may to some appreciable extent be mitigated. Apart from this more senti mental way of estimating the value of the present plan of intercommunication, however, we are not reluctant to consider with some degree of complacency a proceeding which must tend very materially to familiarise the races of the world with their respective methods of experiment and fabrication. From this wide diffu sion of knowledge an almost infinite amount of benefit must accrue to the peoples of the earth collec tively. Science must be matured by the interchange and industry promoted by it to an extent hitherto regarded as impracticable. The more laborious com munities will be encouraged to a continuance of their assiduity ; and the more indolent be awakened from their torpor by the contrast of results shaming them into activity. Practical advantages must therefore ensue from the Industrial Exposition as its certain and inevitable consequences. Added to the material benefit in this manner conferred upon the multitude by the originator of the scheme, there are others of a subordinate kind, relating to the improvement of the social condition of the people, which cannot be altogether overlooked. Less estimable they may seem to be to the majority when compared to the good arising to commerce and manufactures, but eminently' deserving of attention they un questionably are to every seriously reflective tem ptin of some e o rament.Happiness, according to the subtle defini philosopher, does not so much consist in the success of our greatest undertakings, but in the agreeable and satisfactory arrangement of all the little petty details of life in the twenty-four hours. So it is to a consid era bl e extent w i th reference to the nobler qualities of a community. Sermons, or dogmatic teaching of any description, homilies and moral es says, and ultra -religious Acts of Parliament, and matte!s of a similar character, affect the disposition of a people in no way. at all, when cgutraded with the influence of habits and 4-7, ~ , ,',..* 41,Y.".5' (.1 1 , . \ ..• dge 1, .4;:,, 5.73,7 C.O _ 4 , ... , ... i . • : .

It is rather a melancholy sight to witness any man like Mr. COBDEN flattering a class and truckling to its prejudices. Still more lamentable is it to ob serve proceedings of this description in reference to a movement so peculiarly excellent as that in favour of the abolition of taxes on knowledge. During the latest demonstration made in the metropolis in favour of this most desirable reform, we regret to have ob served, on the part of the Hen. Gentleman the Representative of the West Riding of Yorkshire, disposition to truckle and to flatter after the manner we have intimated. This it is which has already oc casionally afforded the enemies of our distinguished Reformer the opportunity of jeering at him as a de rnagogue. It is this species of sycophancy to his auditors, at times perceptible in the bearing of Mr. • CoanEN, which has enabled his antagonists to utter doubt s as to his sincerity. The indecorum allud ed to has been only the more conspi cuous from the circumstance that it accords so ill Its a charuteristic with the nobler and manlier quali ties of the } lon. Member's temperament. From this consideration we have been induced to regret the blemish the more earnestly, and the last evidence we be re had of its existence has only been the more la mentable, to our thinking, from the particular posi tion under which it was manifested. Instead of in misting upon the necessity of the improvement re quired in regard to the emancipation of knowledge upon broad and unmistakeable principles, the H on . Geintleman endeavoured, forsooth, to enlist the sym- Pathies of the working classes in favour of his gu ments by eulogiums on their superior enlightenment lid sensibility. The gallery of a theatre, according 1 ,:o his notion of things, yields evidence of as subtle discrimination on the part of its occupants as any other portion of the building. This division of the P u hlic press, again, is better than that, in the estima ti"., of the Representative of the West Riding, and the , reason of the superiority on the one han d he very sapiently attributes to the newspapers in ques tivn being supported by the middle and the higher glasses, attributin g the inferiority on the other hand, vice versa, to the journals being sustaine d by the sup port of the artlzene and the labouring population. To all tkis we say,.l heartily an d emp h at i ca ll y as ever Mr. BuitcLoicu, id to the London Fine Ladies, in th e ,4 vi e lir of Wakefield" Fudge I UN, LONDON, customs of apparently the most homely and in significant character. Anything, consequently, which we can possibly do towards securing the amelioration of whatever is vicious or reprehen sible in these national habits and customs should be welcomed with all imaginable cordiality by the real philanthropist Trivial they may appear to the su perficial observer, but important they are in reality, nevertheless—constituting, as they do, the very bone and basis of the national character. Among the minute advantages which are thus looked upon as probable cannot be overlooked those which many are just now anticipating with some eagerness in refe rence to the improvement of modern costumes. Very 'far indeed are we from regarding this improvement as undeserving of serious consideration ; and it has consequently been with satisfaction, as well as with feelings of amusement, that we have watched the growth of an enthusiastic indignation against various articles of attire, and above all against the European hat, an article of dress which has come at last to be vilified by one infuriated antagonist as " that stiff and nonsensical hat—that hat as hollow as the head of whoever first put it on the heads of others—the hat, imperious and unswerving, tall, dark, grim, and dismal—the hat that scowls from above a pleasant countenance—the hat that crowns all absurdity." While changes of a desirable nature are being made in other quarters we are sanguine that such as those here indicated may not be set aside at this moment from any belief i❑ their unimportance. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The procession of the Bceuf gras passed off quietly on Tuesday. Since 1848 there has been no proces sion of a Bceuf gras in Paris ; in that year the pro cession, coming immediately after the revolution, was a grand political demonstration, and with their usual appreciation of the ridiculous the getters up of the procession of 1848 called their fat ox Duchatel, after the heavy, pompous, and over-fed fat ex-Minister of the Interior, the colleague of GUIZOT and TESTE. The following account of the procession of the present year appears in Galignani s Messenger:— " The ex was conducted by four sacrificators, dressed up as,:savages, and behind it came a car handsomely ornamented and drawn by four white horses, gaily ca • parisoned. Standing on the highest part of the vehicle was a female, dressed a fantique, to represent Ceres holding a sickle in her hand, and at the four corners of the vehicle children seated similarly attired. After the car came the representatives of the different nations, in appropriate costume, the whole cortege being preceded and followed by mounted republican guards. The throng of spectators was so great in front of the Elyilie when the procession passed, that a man was thrown down, but fortunately rescued in time to prevent his being trampled on. The ox which figured in the day's show bears the name of Libel.* and weighs 1,432 kilo grammes." The Moniteur mentions that the four regiments longest in Paris which are to be removed are to be replaced by others, and that several other changes are to be made with the view of allowing all the regi ments in garrison to take the duty in the forts and the town in turn. The Bourse was firm, with littlo business doing.

It would appear that the spirit of old FREDERICK is fast becoming extinct. It is also rumoured that the differences between Austria and Switzerland were settled. YAVASS PACEIA, the insurgent Bosnian Chief, wbo after his defeat took refuge in the Austrian territory, has been conveyed as a prisoner to Zara. The Second Chamber of Saxony has passed a vote of confidence in the Minister of the Interior. In the sitting of the Second Chamber of the States of Hanover, on the Ist inst., the members were en gaged on the motion of the Deputy LANG, calling on the Ministry to lay before the Chamber the docu ments relating to the German question. The motion was opposed by the Minister, who considered it to be a vote of want of confidence. The motion was nega tived, the votes being 34 for, and 39 against it. The Prince of PRUSSIA held a grand parade on the new market of Cologne on the 27th. In an ad dress to the officers, in which he expressed his plea sure at meeting them again, he impressed upon them the necessity of thoroughly training the young men who had recently entered the service. The Prince afterwards went to Coblentz. HOLLAND. THE HAGUE.—I❑ reducing the pension list, the following changes have been made in the salaries of the diplomatic staff :—Ambassador plenipotentiary, 8,000 florins ; resident minister, 6,000 florins ; charge d'affaires, 4,000 florins; secretary of legation, first rank at Constantinople, 2,000 florins; secretary of legation, second rank, 1,000 florins ; attaché, 600 florins. RUSSIA. A letter from St. Petersburgh, of the 21st ult., states that on the joint proposition of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, and the Historical and Philolo gical Society of St. Petersburgh, the Russian Go vernment has just decided that the thousandth anni versary of the foundation of the Russian empire, which, according to the historians of that country, dates from the year 552, shall be celebrated next year with the greast pomp in that capital, and in those of all the European and Asiatic provinces of Russia. WALLACHIA AND MOLDAVIA, Accounts from Bucharest state that the Russian troops were to evacuate the Principalities on the Ist inst. It was feared, however, that this so-called eva cuation would be merely a change of garrison. NORWAY. Accounts have been received from Norway, an. nouncing that the disturbances which had broken ou in the neighbourhood of Drontheim have been sup• pressed. ITALY. The Risorgimento of Turin of the 28th ult. states that M. Biwa°, having invited the Government to contradict in a more explicit manner than the official Gazette, the rumours of conspiracies and dangers menacing the subalpine liberties, M. CAVOUR, Mi nister of Commerce, replied that the Government had thought it sufficient to contradict in the official journal some of the reports in circulation. As to those, he said, to which no allusion was made, they were not considered worthy of notice. They referred to august persons, and the Ministry believed the latter to be placed too high to be defended otherwise than by silence. A similar instance already occurred. Another personage still more illustrious had been publicly insulted. The Cabinet did not then deem it its duty to contradict the calumnies, of which no other trace now remains, except the regret of those who credited them. The present Cabinet did not think proper to engage in a dispute on reports devoid of all foundation. It stated that it did not believe them. It now repeats that statement, being per suaded that futurity and facts will demonstrate their falsehood still more clearly than its words. REMOVAL. OF THE COURT TO THE ISLE OF WIGHT. —Her Majesty, Prince Albert, and the Royal children, are expected to arrive at Osborne on Saturday next, when sow ing and planting will be the order of the day with the whole of the Royal party, for they are all agriculturists. REPRESENTATION OF GERRNWICH.—It is reported that Mr. Alderman Salomons and Mr. Alderman Wire are to contest the borough with Admiral Dundas. Edward Smith, who was found guilty yesterday of arson at the Central Criminal Court, was brought up for sentence, and Mr. Justice Erie said, from inquiries he had made, he was quite satisfied that the manner he had exhi bited during the trial was feigned, and he should order him to be transported for fifteen years. DEATH OF ADMIRAL COLIN CAMPBELL.--Thii officer died on the 3d inst., aged 64. He had been connected with the service for upwards of 54 years, and was a captain of 1812. The Admiral was one of the few surviving Trafalgar officers. At that engagement he was mate of the Defiance, and he served in the same vessel on the occasion of Calder's action. He was lieutenant of the Phoebe at the capture of Martinique and Guadeloupe, in 1809, and had the honour of being gazetted for his services in 1808 and 1810. The de ceased was related to the family of the late Sir Cohn Campbell. HIT HIM, HE'S GOT NO FRIENDS. —Last week, while her Majesty was sending right and left for the heads of parties to get a Government, it is strange that the Royal summons was not directed to Sir Charles Wood; for it is allowed on all hands—byofk nknocking ig up ac e n s as well aas bfriends—that h t . there is no ono so capable SLAVES IN AIIIERICA.—It is estimated that the These numberinntie a3reein otfenslayveeasrs has been inthetieaittedthSe rate of 18% per cent. is 2,933,000. cent.

The advises received from the Cape of Good Hope to the Bth of January have not taken by surprise those who have watched the course of events for some time past in the colony. There is a well-founded hope, how ever, that the energy and skill of Sir Harry Smith, the Governor, will prove successful in bringing the contest to an early issue. In the meantime there is already to be deplored considerable loss of life among the troops, who were taken at a disadvantage, but who will doubtless be soon avenged. It is to be inferred that the Kafirs have made extensive preparations ere they ventured upon such a hazardous contest, and whether this war shall cost us two or three millions sterling as the last did, or by success in the onset will be settled at a smaller cost, is yet a problem to be solved. The preservation of the eastern colony is concerned, and it is satisfactory to observe that great alacrity was shown by the Hottentot as well as the European population, although the Kafir servants had nearly all absconded from their several em ployments, and the wives and daughters of the farmers had themselves to tend the flocks. Accounts from Amsterdam of the 4th inst., state that there was not much doing in the Funds. Dutch Two and-a-Half per Cents. were 57i to 7-16th. The deficit in the revenue of Holland, arising from the modification of various taxes, is stated at 2,391,000 florins for the year. The Funds have been very firm this morning, although subject to a temporary reaction, owing to the Cape of Good Hope news. The Money Market is very easy, and an impression prevails that it will so continue.

VICE-CHANCER.Y.—(THIS DAY.) (Before Vice-Chancellor Lord CRANWORTH.) METAIRIE V. CARDINAL WISEMAN. The arguments in this case were resumed to-day. after the short causes were disposed of. The case has been already twice before the Court, and was spe cially appointed to come on yesterday, when Mr. BETHELL (with whom was Mr. Kingslske) moved for an injunction to restrain the trans fer of 7,000/. stock. The plaintiff, for whom Mr. Bethell appeared, was Julie Metairie. The defendants were Cardipal Wiseman, who was only a de fendant in his official character, John Athanasius Cooke, the Very Rev. Mr. Norris, and Mr. Cox; and the object of the application was to restrain Cooke, Norris, and Cox from dealing with or transferring a sum of 7,0001. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cent. Annuities, and from receiving any future dividends. This sum of stock was made the subject of a deed of gift obtained from a dying man under the influence of his spiritual director. Some years since the Legislature in its wisdom passed an Act putting gifts to Roman Catholic charities on the same footing as gifts to Protestant Dissenters; but be fore that period they were not regarded as valid, and the good sense of the parties was enough to induce them to abandon them. Now, it appeared, they felt greater confidence arising from some cause or another, and they thought that this gift made by a dying man could be supported. He should, however, not mention any farther Cardinal Wiseman's name, as he was only a formal party. The defendants were John Athanasius Cooke, a gentleman at the equity bar, well conversant with the practice of our law, and he was the gentleman employ ed to prepare the deeds, and is a trustee. This gentleman descended to menial offices in preparing the deeds; he saw to the engrossment; he paid for the stamps, and fulfilled all the duties of counsel, solicitor, and law-stationer. Mr. Holdstock, the priest, and Mr. Norris and Mr. Cooke, were the trustees. Mr. Hamil ton was a legatee under the will, the other defendants were the next of kin of the testator. The outline of the case was as follows : he should give little that was not confessed in the brief. More than fifty years ago, in 1797, Mathurin Carl 6, a native of France, came to live in England, being then very poor, but he gained a sub sistence by teaching languages in London. During the last 18 years of his life he live din the same house with the mother of Matthew Hamilton, one of the defendants to this suit, from whom he rented two small apartments on the second floor. The house was situate in Chalton street, Somers-town; and his two rooms were fitted up with a press-bed and a few other cheap articles of furni ture belonging to himself. M. Carte was a man of great vigour and industry, and by extraordinary exertions in his calling, and by very rigid parsimony, he gradually amassed two sums of 7,0001. and 3,000/. stock, and in vested his savings in the public funds of Great Britain. He attained the age of seventy-seven years in January, 1847, when he still retained his strength and vigour. He was possessed of two sums of 7,0001. and 3,000/. Bank Annuities, and 1,500 francs in a French bank. He pos sessed one peculiarity not usual with his countrymen—a rooted aversion to women—a matter of importance when the gift is to a female school. He always hoped to go ' back to Labelle, where his friends had resided. On the 26th of February, 1847, he became in a weak state of health, and at the suggestion of Mr. Hamilton, a me dical practitioner, named Gasquet, who was of the Ro man Catholic persuasion, was called in, and attended him in his apartment on the 27th of February, 1847. Mr. Gasquet observed that M. Carr 6 was suffering from weakness, and that he would be most benefited by nu tritious food, but he feared " the poor creature" had not the means to supply himself with the comforts his state required; and Mr. Gasquet was then going away when Mr. Hamilton stopped him and said that M. Carr 6 had ample means for all that might be required, for, in fact, he had property to the amount of 10,000/. Mr. Gas quet appeared surprised, and asked whether he had any relatives in this country, upon which Mr. Hamilton told him that M. Cartsi had no relation in Eng land, but he had a sister and other relations living in France. Mr. Gasquet, shortly after quitting M. Carte's house, had an interview with the defendant, J. Hold stock, a Roman Catholic priest of a chapel in Claren don-square, Somers-town, and informed him that at the house of Mr. Hamilton there was an aged French Roman Catholic in a dying or sinking state, and that he was said to have property to the amount of 10,0001. On the fol lowing day the said James Holdstock called at Mr. Ha milton's and said he wanted to see M. Carr 6, and must see him alone; and while he was alone with M. Cane, there was no evidence to show what had taken place, but it was said that Cart 6 of himself proposed to give the larger part of his property to the charity. It was re presented that this intention was reduced to writing, but that the paper had not been preserved. The priest then sent one of his congregation, Mr. Cooke, who represents himself as being a convert to the Romish religion in 1837, and that he carried the paper away with him. Cooke then, without the intervention of a solicitor, drew a will, and returned on Monday, the Ist of March, and the priest, James Holdstock, and John Athanasius Cooke, called together upon M. Carl 6, bringing with them a will ready engrossed. While the priest and J. A. Cooke were with M. Carl 6, twits women, who lived in the same house with the priest, called by his direction in order that they might witness the will, but they were then sent away, when it was proposed instead of a will a deed should be prepared, so as to save the legacy duty of 700/. On Thursday, the 4th of March, the deed and will were ready prepared, and a Miss Clark and a Mr. Hay, a former clerk in Wright's house, came to the door. M. Carne was then worse, and he desired that they should not be admitted. Some altercation took place, but eventually the priest went up to M. Carr 6, who admitted he had prohibited them. Some con versation then took place, and after some time the priest induced the sinking man to consent. At this time Mr. Brown came in, and as to what took place there was a different complexion given by the evidence; the old man was unwilling to proceed with the business; he de sired to be left alone, when the priest interfered, speak ing to him in French. Cooke then read the will through; he was desirous to leave the room, but the priest commanded him to stay. The priest then proped the old man up, and held his fingers, as he affixed his signature, and all this took place between five and seven o'clock. Among the documents signed was a power of attorney to enable Cooke to get the fund. The old man wished to have the documents left with him; that was refused. Mrs. Clark then attested the deed, and with considerable dexterity Mr. Brown, who happened to be in the house, was made to be the other witness. Cooke then took away the deeds. The power of attorney was left at the Bank, on Saturday the transfer was made, and on Saturday M. Carle died. It appeared that the priest never visited him again, so that he died unab solved, unconfessed, without those consolations of his religion which were the price for which he bad given up his property. The Learned Counsel not having concluded his argu ments yesterday, resumed them this morning. Mr. KINGSLAKE followed on the same side, and had not concluded when our report left. SHERIFFS' COURT,—(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Under -Sheriff BURCHELL.) ALLEN V. CH&PMAN.—FALSE IMPRISONMENT. This was an action to recover damages for false im prisonment. The plaintiff was described as a dress maker, of Sutton-street, Waterloo-road, and defendant was a licensed victualler in the Belvidere-road. It appeared that the defendant had gone home to the plaintiff's house, and afterwards retired to a public house, where they had some refreshment, and subse quently charged plaintiff with stealing a diamond ring, which, however, was not fonnd, and, according to the evidence of the inspector, both parties had been paying their devotions to Bacchus at all events, but there was no evidence adduced to prove any criminality on the part of the plaintiff. The jury, alter a very brief consultation, gave a ver dict for 104—This was the only case tried. CRIMINAL COURT-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Matrix and Mr. Justice FAME.) Ann Dean, 23, described as a widow, was indicted for feloniously killing and slay ing William Dean, her husband. Mr. W. Cooper appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Robinson defended the prisoner. The accused, who was dressed in widow's attire, hs,d a young child in In-r arm 3, and seemed deeply affected at her painful position. The circumstances of the case were simply these:—lt appeared that the deceased, who was about 22 y. ars of and by trade a plasterer, resided with his wife on very amicable terms in Hill-street, Bethnal-green. They had a child about six mouths old, and while at supper on the Bth of February last it seemed the deceased was annoyed et its crying, and litt , d up his hand for the purpose of giving it a blow. Tne prisoner, with the view of protecting the child, threw the fork which she bad in her hand at him, producing a slight wound on the wrist of the left hand. The injured part became inflamed, and few days afterwards the in flammation' ,1, 1Y e ----- ex tendud up the whole a...na, end death ultimat sir ervened. The • prisonfr was charged on the coroner's irquisition. Mr. C a rpenter, surgeon to the East London Dispen sary, said he attended the deceased up to the time ()Ibis d eat h. The it f l awmat i on arose from a small punctured wou nd just above the fore fi ng er of the left band, wag w hich w as the primary cause of deat h ; but the deceased sutferiLg from great constitutional disturbance and typhoid fever. His bad state of health and the presence of the fever when he received the wound was, in hie opinion, the immediate cause of death. A very 01 puncture would occasion death in such a body as that (1 the deceased.
