ODDS AND ENDS FROM NEWMARKET. c , TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. ° IRI—My calculations concerning the 2,000 Guineas Stakes were slightly derenged by the force of circum r,""s, not by the merits of the winner; my selected teY, the Mountain Sylph colt, now called Mountain r, having been thrown beck in his work in conse 111ence of the acc id ent t o hi s f oo t, was, by no manner of :tests UP to the mark; moreover, the ground was bold ing, and to a horse not quite the thing that would prove ins urmountable bar to victory. Hernandez, the pitch ? o) ; a g Pe i r e i n eet t i h o . n so far as training goes, won very cleverly Gltnhawk was beaten a couple of lengths t Mountain Deer for second place. The Confessor i cise up with Glenhaeek, an uupleeed fourth. Buck -,(11.,nd, Midas and eimus ran home in company. _Zulus n u', Oleander were in difficulties early. Atter the race. 1° little was thought of the Mountain Deer's defeat, that .2 to 1 was taken about him for the Derby, and the same a d's laid against Hernandez; neither, to my thinking, Will 'love the trump card on the Derby day.

The soYs. stak es were won very easily by Lord Exeter's Isr , at eracker, beating Tomboy and Bercleaux; the last learned the favourite.

The election for this borough terminated yesierday in the return of Mr. Freshfield, the Protectionist candidate. The polling commenced at eight o'clock, and proceeded languidly throughout the day, as will be seen from the subjoined return of the numbers: — NINE O'CLOCK. Fresh field 96 Wire ... TEN O'CLCCK. Fresh qeld ... Wire ... Freshfield Wire ... Fresbfield Wire ... ELEVEN O'CLOCK. TWELVE O'CLOCK. • •• • •. • ONE O'CLOCK. ... 261 ... 183 Fresh field ... ... 283 ... 204 Wire ... Freshfield Wire ... TWO O'CLOCK. 309 218 THREE O'CLOCK. Freshfield ... 345 Wire ... ... 237 The number of registered electors is rather more than ,000. About five o'clock the friends of the opposing candi dates assembled in the balcony of the Assembly Rooms to hear the official declaration of the poll by the Mayor. The market-place at this time exhibited a large assem blage of Blue " roughs," by whom Mr. Freshfield and his friends were hustled and ill-used in crossing the market-place from the Protectionist bead-quarters, the Peacock Inn. The MAYOR (Mr. J. Rawson) having examined the poll.books, proclaimed the numbers at the final close of the poll to be— For Mr. Freshfield... ... 368 For Mr. Wire ... ... 251 Majority ... ...--117 His Worship accordingly declared Mr. J. H. Freshfield to be duly elected. Mr. FRESHFIELD presented himself to the electors, and was proceeding to thank them for the honour con ferred upon him, when a volley of stones, potatoes, and rotten eggs was discharged at the Hon. Member and his friends by the mob below, who had come prepared to indicate by these tokens their dissatisfaction with the result of the election. One of these missiles, said to be a piece of a broken ginger beer bottle, which was aimed at an obnoxious Protectionist, struck Mr. Wire's proposer (Mr. Clarke) a severe blow near the eye ; the wound bled most profusely for a considerable time. The garments of several gentlemen were bespat tered by the eggs, and their hate also sustained some damage from the force with which the stones and pota toes were thrown. Fortunately the windows of the As sembly-rooms had been boarded over, or they would have been all broken. Mr. Freshfield endeavoured for some time to ward off with his hat the misilea aimed at him, hut, the fire becoming too hot, the Hon. Member, accompanied by the Mayor, WWI compelled to leave the balcony, and take refuge in the Council-chamber. The disposition of the mob was so evidently mis chievous as to threaten personal injury to Mr. Fresh field, who was persuaded by his Worship to remain in the Assembly-rooms until they should disperse. Two or three diversions were now attempted by the be sieged, but with little success. The "Blue band of music was sent for, who marched away with great pomp and circumstance, hearing Mr. Wire's banners before them. But the " Blue" gentry, who seemed to be a cross between canal boatmen and railway " navviess" re fused to follow. Then a rumour arrived that a barrel of beer had been opened at the other end of the town. Even this ruse failed. Mr. CLARKE, with bandaged eye, presented himself in the balcony, and addressed the _assemblage. Subse quently, Mr. G. Hows, a local reporter and lecturer of some influence among the lower classes, entreated the " roughs" to disperse quietly now the Flee ion was over. The only answer ho received was an ominous cry of " Fresbfield! Freshfield!" which so clearly evinced what the mob were waiting for that the Mayor collected the local police, and, proceeding to the police-office in the market-place, read the Riot Act. 'When our reporter left Boston (by the express-train at 7 o'clock) no breach of the peace had occurred save that above chronicled. But the new Protectionist Member was still closely in vested in the Assembly-room, from the windows of which the hungry electioneerers could see the preparations made, and the table set out, at the Peacock Inn, over the way, for a sumptuous banquet to celebrate the return of the successful candidate. Now and then some famished partisan, who complained of having had no thing to eat since an early breakfast at 7 o'clock A3l suffered his hunger to prevail over his prudence so far as to counsel bis friends to fight their way across the market-place, but a glance at the angry expression which glared in the eyes of the Blue " roughs' below quickly repressed the rash design. Occasionally, too, messages arrived which only too clearly conveyed the despair of the cook at the Peacock, and the excellence of the repast which awaited the connives. Whether this state of be leaguerment continued, as was probable, until the shades of night enabled the besieged to gain the friendly shelter of their hotel, we are unable to say, the Great Northern Railway being at present destitute of the elec tric telegraph. It is to be hoped, however, that nothing worse happened after the express train left than the spoiling of a good dinner, and that the apprehensions which were entertained of a riot and disturbance were not realized. THE MONSTER TABLE-CLOTH FOR SOYER'S SYM POSIUM. —This extraordinary specimen of English manufac ture arrived from Barnsley on Monday night last. Its length is 307 feet, breadth 8 feet, weight two ca t., and cost upwards of tai. It is to be exhibited on Monday next, on the ban quetting table in the Encampment of All Nations. ANOTHER FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE NATIONAL EXHIBITION.-011 Monday a workman was engaged, with several others, on the roof, regulating the canvas that is to cover the glass, when his foot slipping a little he lost his equilibrium and fell backwards upon the glass roof, and the weight of his body forcing in the framework, the unfortu tunate man fell upon the floor with such violence as to break several of his limbs. He was immediately picked up, but life was found to be quite extinct. The deceased was a very sober and steady man. This is the third fatal accident that has occurred at the Crystal Palace. THE LATE CAPTAIN SYMES.—We noticed last week the circumstance under which Captain Symes lost his life, in consequence of being brutally assaulted at his own door at Lyme, by a man named Garland. The wretched culprit was immediately apprehended, and underwent an examination before the. magistrates on Tuesday, which was adjourned to \Yednes ay morning, when he was committed by Lieutenant- Colonel Sir Henry Bayly and George Cartwright, Esq., county magistrates, to Dorchester Gaol for trial, for the wil tahnedma magistrates. on n l murder of the lamented gentleman. An inquest was held befotreeS. body at the Cups Hotel, on Wednesday afternoon, Beestun, barrister-at-law, Esq. stintelligent rates. jury, of whom Mr. ster-at-law was foreman, who returned a ver dict of wilful murder upon' h pre viously taken before ' e same evidence as that RAILWAY MOVEMENTS.

The line would of course be: an x t Buckinghamshire R a ilwa y. The project hase extension lo e n o g been of the pri vately spoken of as likely to be brought into a tangie shape. It is stated that the London and North-Western Company have been casting their " comprehensive glance" towards the Newport an d Aber g avenn y and Ross and Here ford district. The " speculators" appear to have received a hint on the subject. — Herald. VOLUNTEER HANGMEN.—ScveraI journals having state') that Caicraft as too much engaged to be able to execute Maria Clarke, at Ipswich, on the day named, sun dry individuals have sent written applicaticns to the autho rities at our county gaol, offering their services in the capa city of hangman ! One asks 20. for the job, and believe no less than ten offers have been made.— Ipswich Exprees. FATAL ACCIDENT.—We regret to hear that Mr. Todd. a banister, whilst cruising in a yacht on Sunday last, near the Nore, was thrown overboard by the boom suddenly jibing : 04 was wafortunately droned , - • HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. Her Majesty's Tneatre re-opened for the past- Paschal season last evening, with the delightful and intensely Italian opera butfa, L'Elisir d' Amore, and never has this chef d'oeuvre cf Donizetti been more strongly cast or more charmingly represented. Madlle. Duprez was the Adina, and had Donizetti composed the part expressly for this young and fascinating prima donna, she could not have been more exactly fitted. She looked and acted the rustic village heiress to the life—pretty, young, arch, naive, yet tant soit peu espiegle, Madlle. Caroline Duprez was the very Adina of the author, and she warbled the light, brilliant sparkling music, which was exactly suited to the timbre of her voice, in the most exquisite and fascinating manner imaginable, with that facility of execution, flexibility of voice, and perfection of intonation which have already become her distinguish ing characteristics, and have won for her the fame of being one of the most finished, most brilliant, and faultless, as she is one of the youngest of, prime donne. The audience were enthu siastic in their applause, and Madlle. Duprez was called on three times. But the Adina of Madlle. Duprez was not the only great feature of the evening. Lablache made his first appearance for the season as Dalcamara, and from the time the head of the white horse became visible until the great basso had stood at the footlights some five minutes, bowing his ac knowledgments, the applause was enthusia stic and continuous. He is the same Lablache that he has ever been, as fat, us humorous, as rollicking, his voice as magnificent, his fun as unctions, his introduced scraps of English and French as telling and as mirth exciting as ever ; his Dulcamara of last night was one of the richest pieces of Italian comedy ever seen. Calzoleri was the Nemorino, and sang the music exquisitely. The "Una furtiva la grime" has been seldom more deliciously rendered, and, to make the cast perhaps the strongest ever pre sented of this opera, Coletti was the Sergeant Bel core. A selection from Les Metamorphoses followed, in which Carlotta Grisi danced the pas of the rustic coquette and that of the folic so exquisitely as to excite quite a furore. She was called at the conclu sion, ad applauded to the echo. The theatre was crowded. The Queen's hex was occupied by the Earl and Countess of Morley, the Ladies Parker, Mr. and Mrs. Humphrey Mildm.y and party. Amongt the noble and distinguished individuals also honouring the theatre with their presence on this occasion were the following: —His Grace the Duke of Wellington and the Mar chioness of Douro, the Prince Demidoff, his Excel-. lency the Russian Minister and the Baroness Bru now and party, the Marquis and Marchioness of Salisbury, Marquis of Donegal, the Earl of Liverpool, the Earl of Ahoy ne, the Earl and Countess &cave, Earl and Countess of Wilton and Lady Elizabeth Egerton and party, Earl Mountcbarles, Earl Gifford, Earl of Cardigan, Viscount Dupplin, Lord Ward, Lord Ashburton, Lady Somerset and Miss Somerset, Lady Williamson, Lady Vincent, Lady Ha milton, Lord and Lady Francis Gordon, Lord Adolphus Fitzclarenee, Lady Ashworth, Lady Mackenzie and Miss Mackenzie, the Right Hon. the Secretary at War and Mrs. Fox Maule, lion.

Les Huguenots was performed here last evening, for the first time this ,season, and Mario made his rentree in the character of Raoul de Nangis ; he, although somewhat hoarse, sang and acted with great spirit, displaying a warmth, and energy, and pas sion of which we had before scarcely thought him ca pable. The great duet between Raoul and Valantine has been never more superbly given than it was last evening by Mario and Grisi ; the latter of whom was in excellent voice, and threw her whole soul into the part. Angri was to have performed the part of the page, Urban°, but was unable to ap pear iu consequence of an attack of influenza. Madile. Bertrandi, from the . Italian Opera, Berlin, undertook the part at a feW hours notice, and ac quitted herself most creditably. The stern old Lutheran Mareelle was sublimely (that is the only appropriate word) rendered by Formes ; and Polonini gave a careful version of the part of St. Brie, hereto fore acted 'by Tamburini. The choruses were splendidly given, and the Blessing of the Poignards wns, of course, encored. The Qucen's box was occupied by the Marchioness of Waterford and Lady Stuart de Psothesay, Viscount and Viscountess Canning and party. Among the company honouring the theatre with their presence we remarked the Marchioness of Ailesbury, the Marchesa Brancalconi and Mdlle.

APOLLONICON, ADELAIDE-STREET, STRAND. • Mr. Gratin Cooke's benefit took place at the above rooms on Monday evening, and it must have been• gratifying to him to have seen the numbers of friends who rallied round him on the occasion. The per formance was under the patronage of the officers of the 2d Regiment of Life Guards, end their splendid band, under the direction of Mr. Cooke, who on the occasion donned their uniform, performed several pieces of music, much to the delectation of the audi ence. We scarcely knew Mr. Cooke when he made his appearance with his "blushing honours thick upon him," and it is but justice to him to say that in his military attire he looks the beau ideal of a man of war, and as if he had been such "from his youth up." The bill of fare was very attractive. Mr. Richardson played a coupled s solos on the flute with the greatest brilliancy, and his usual unapproach able exoellence;and if old Paganini were alive we can fancy with what delight he would have listened to the musician-like treatment which his " Carnival de Vecite" received at the fair hands of Miss Collins. Her faultless and marvellous execution quite took the audience by storm, and she was honoured with an enthusiastic encore. To that, however, we imagine she has by this time become quite accustomed, for she receives the like honour on every night of the Apollonicon Concerts. The Distin family performed on the sax-horns, and a young lady, Miss Marriot O'Connor, made her debit with the greatest success. A glee, in which she and the Distins took part, " Down in a flowery vale," was quite a gem, and was sung with most admirable taste and precision. On the whole, the concert passed off in capital style, and Mr. Cooke deserves the thanks of the public for the satisfactory manner in which he catered for their amusement. ARBITRATION IN THE CASE OF MESSRS. MUNDAY, THE ORIGINAL CONTRACTORS, FOR THE BUILDING.—Mr. Robert Stephenson, the sole arbitrator in this case, held a second meeting at the Palace of Westminster this day, when Mr. Whishaw was examined at considerable length on the part of the contractors. THE EXPOSITION. — When the Exposition was first proposed, a general notion prevailed that none but positively new inventions were admissible. As the subject, however, became better understood, it was ascertained that it was really to be a representation of the best products of art and manufactures. rivet; now there can be no doubt but that many of our warehousemen and shopkeepers are disposing of textile fabrics of the very class and character as will be at the Exposition. We learn, for instance, that the Messrs. Jay, of Regent-street, during their recent visit to Paris, were fortunate enough to obtain for their mourning establishment four mantles cf the exact model and make as those that will be exposed on the Ist of May in the Crystal Palace; the only difference bEing that the latter are in delicate, rich, and attractive colours whereas those of Messrs. Jay are in black and greys suited to their particular trade. THE GREAT BELL AT NOTRE DAME.—The large bell of the Cathedral of Notre Dame was rung on Good Friday, after a silence of three years, caused by repairs in the belfry. A large crowd assembled on the Parvis to hear it. The bell is called Emmanuel, was cast in 1682, and Louis XIV. named it in the christening c eremon y . For merly sixteen men were required to ring it. b ut owin g to an improvement in the hanging, four now suffice.

CORK ELECTION.—The election for Cork city is fixed for to-morrow. There will be no opposition to the return of Mr. Sergeant Murphy. Since his arrival in Cork. on Wednesday last, the learned gentleman has been suffer ing from an attack of bronchitis; and, so painful has been the attack, that it is probable he may not be able to address the electors on Wednesday—certainly not at any length. MR. SHARMAN CRAWFORD, M.P., AND THE TENANT LEAGUE.—A correspondence has taken place between Mr. S. Crawford - and the members of the Tenant-League on the subject of a Landlord and Tenant Bill, in which the Honourable Member for Rochdale, after expressing his intention of retiring from Parliament on the next dissolution, says that his wish to retire is, in some measure, caused by a belief that, differing as he does on eertain important points from the principles laid down by the League, "his presence in Parliament would be rather an injury than a benefit to the cause in the form that the League would wish to uphold it." ARRIVALS OF FOREIGN GRAlN.—Thirty-five vessels laden with foreign grain have arrived in Cork harbour —twenty-seven on Saturday and eight on Sunday. DINNER TO MR. FAGAN, LATE M.P. FOR CORK CITY. —The Cork Examiner says:—"Mr. Fagan has re• ceived an invitation to a public dinner from his late col leagues in the House of Commons representing English constituencies. The document conveying the invitation is signed by the leading Reformers in England, including Messrs. Hume, Cobden, Bright, Milner Gibson, Mowatt , Sir William Molesworth, Sir Edward Buxton, Sir Thomas Edward Colebrooke, William Brown, and Alexander Henry, Members for South Lancashire; Colonels Watkins and Salwey, Mr. Haywood, of Lanca shire; Mr. Shafto Adair, Henry Fitzhardinge Berkeley, Colonel Thompson, Mr. Lushington, Alderman Hum phery, Mr. Mitchell, and Mr. Macgregor; Messrs. Bass and Scholefield, Ellis, Horsman, and a long list of M.P.s with whom, during his career , in Parliament, Mr. Fagan cordially co-operated in their efforts for political and financial reform. The document, ho4ever, makes no allusion to political subjects, and is confined to the ex pression of the Members' approbation of Mr. Fagan's consistent and honourable conduct, and courteous de portment' during the time he sat in Parliament. We understand Mr. Fagan has accepted the invitation, and intends on the re-assembling of Parliament, to go over to London to receive this honourable tribute of his late colleagues' regard."

ACCIDENT AT BLACKFRIARS-BRIDGE.- - Yesterday afternoon a wain, drawn, by four horses, was descending Blackfriars-bridge, towards the Middlesex shore, when, in consequence of the driver having neglected to slid the wheel, the pressure of the vehicle on the horses' quarters caused them to set oft at full gallop at the moment the bridge was thronged with carriages. Numerous colli sions ensued, and one of the drivers was so dreadfully in jured that he now lies in the hospital without hopes of re covery. The career of the vehicle was stopped by its com ing into contact with the massive iron pillar supporting the lamp opposite,r26 , New Bridge-street, which, by the force 01 the concussion, was snapped in two, the broken portion, in its descent, striking a female on the head, who was taken to the hospital insensible, her skull having been fractured by the blow. Two of the horses were also killed. "Now, BY ST. PAUL, THE WORK GOES BRAVELY ON !"- St. Paul's has at length knuckled down, and, to bor row another forcible expression from " the boys," it has " tucked in its twopenny." Our gallant charge upon the authorities has ended in their ceasing to make a charge upon the public ; and, looking upon the gratuitous admission of visitors as a generous admission of error, we will bury the past and the twopences in oblivion. Punch. STATE OF TRADE.—MANCHESTER, APRIL 22. — The business to-day in yarns has been at a further decline on last Tuesday's prices; but the market was flat notwith standing all the symptoms of weakness. The amount 01 transactions generally, however, has been equal to an average of the weekly market held on this day, the buyers appearing to consider the prices now current as 'reasonable. In the goods market there - was a tolerable inquiry in the earlier part of the day; and 39-inch shirtings, required for India, were sought after by the shipping houses; but when the telegraph notice declared a luling flatness in the Liverpool market the effect was immediately apparent. A remarkable proof of the little confidence which is entertained in the ac counts from America is given in the fact, that though cotton is reported higher at New York, no effect was observable either here or in Liverpool - which could be traced as a direct consequence of that fact. Cotton was up ii America I A d. per lb., and 20,000 bales were sold at New York within three days of the sailing of the Canada, a circumstance which seems to be justly deemed suspicious. AN EXTRAORDINARY SCENE AT GLOUCESTER.— Some of the good citizens of Gloucester, perambulating the docks on Good Friday morning , Were marine „by a terrible noise cn board a Greek ship lying in the middle of the basin. The captain and others appeared to have one of the crew amongst them, around whose neck a rope was attached, and before any interference could be offered the body was run up to the yard-arm, and after a few apparent struggles, so far as the victim was concerned, all was still. The noise had hardly subsided, when a similar scene appeared to be going forward on board another Greek vessel lying alongside the first-mentioned, the body in this case being lowered over the side into the water, and then, as if the murderous wretches had changed their intentions, it was hauled on deck— severely belaboured amidst shouts and execrations, and speedily hauled up to the yard-arm. The excitement on seeing two bodies dangling high in the air was most intense; some of the crowd assembled were -calling out for the police, and two or three, more courageous than the rest, got on board one of the ships to demand au explanation, and with the determination to take the culprit into custody. The ex planation was duly given, and a hearty and general laugh was the result. The seamen were only performing a custom of the Greek Church, usual on Good Friday, by stuffing an effigy with straw, with a bag in its ht h rig and, to r resent Judas Iscariot, and hanging it, expressive of their abhor rence of the conduct of that worthy in betraying our Saviour. The next morning the effigies were hauled down, and treated with great indignity, amidst renewed shouts and the dis charge of muskets. TEE SEX OF JOHN SMlTH — Domestic critics were last week smitten with wonderment that the Govern ment should require them to state, in their census papers, whether John Smith or Mary Jone was a male or a female.

Goods and yarns partake of the general de pression, and prices continue to decline. Dealers complain generally of the dulness in the home trade, or at least of the difficulty of dojng business with a profit. Several establishments are lessening the amount of their produc tion, and in the Paisley district upwards of 1,200 weavers have been thrown:out of employment during the last few weeks.

Sales have been made at 40s. 6d., cash, and the current value is from 495. 6d to 41s. per ton, free on board. The shipment from the beginning of the year till the 12th current have been 137,74 tops, against 86,632 tons for the same period last year—showing an increase of shipments of 50,742 tons.

GANG. h e committale S f James Hamilton eying refused to take his evidence on behalf of the Crown), be has made fall confession of all the burglaries which he and the gang have been engaged in The document during the last twelve months. is of a very extraordinary character, and shows the immense amount of daring possessed by these men. He has also made some_ revelations to the police officers engaged in the case, by which they have been enabl-d to discover the receivers of theo t len property, but from obvious reasons we are at prt,ener, t prevented however, from mentioning their names. It is, believed that some portion of the great amount of valuable pro perty which has been stolen may yet be re s t ore d to the owners. Hamilton, in the commencement of his confession, states "that the gang consisted of himself, Levi Har wood and Samuel Jones (hung for the murder of Mr. Holiest), Samuel Harwood, John and Edward Isaacs, William Brooks, Joseph Carter, John and James Hones, alias Smith, Hiram Smith, Thomas Toot , alias Morgan,. William Hillyer, John Brooks, 'Mary Crowder, Sarah , White, and James Jones. John Isaacs was duly elected captain, and all the others acted under his direction. They were all sworn to obey the orders of the captain, and if any one attempted to back out, or refused to take part in any robbery or murder, if necessary, he or she was to be instantly shot; and if any one left the gang without the consent of the captain, ho or she were to Co followed, and if overtaken to be shost " After giving the particulars of the burglary at Kird ford, which ha s b een a l rea d y pu bli s h e d , h e goes on to say:—" The second day after this Isaacs and John Hones came to me again at Farnham-common, and agreed for me to meet them at Dorking Homewood common. Laacs' brother, N e d, came t o me, also John Hones and James Hones. We all went to an old man's house (a farmer near Horsham). They heard he had got a good deal of money. We all went, two at a time, from the Homewood. Six o f us met i n t from wood near Mr. Broadwood's lodge, and th en we wen the farmer's house. One got in at th e w i n d ow dl3tt there the to rest in at the back-door. We all went i n th e kitchen. The t old man heard us, and hallooed out, and w e a ll left h house. Four of us, myself, William Brooks, and Jae nie and Edward Isaacs, went down to a house on Haywarel e 'ea Heath, near the Brighton station, where two or three ladies of the name of Kennard lived. This robbery was planned by William Brooks, who knew the name. There was a man servant who was ill, and a maid servant, who slept in the same room to watch him. Her bed was right against the window, where the light was. The servant burnt a light all night, because the man was ill. I found a long ladder, and put it up to the window. It was a sash-window, which moved on one side. Wo all got into the window. The female servant was lying close to the window, and we fell over her. They went into the ladies' room disguised with masks. After pacifying the two servants, they left me to mind them. The ladies' room was locked, but they broke open the door. They collected all the property that was there. They threatened to blow out the brains of the ladies if they gave any alarm. We were there two hours, during which time I sat down in a chair with the two servants, and kept talking to them all the time. It was just get ing daylight when we left the house. We came back two at a time until we got to Copthorn. There we looked the property over, and shared what money there was; 41. ss. each was shared. There was a deal of foreign money, which I took to be French; this was put amongst the plate, and 11l guineas in gold, and that gold was put with the gold watches. There were two gold watches and three silver ones; one gold watch had a gold face and steel hands, the other had a white face. Of the silver watches two were small plain ones, and the other was a hunting watch with a silver chain. There was a double-barrelled gun taken from the house, and we had two guns with us. There were a great many rings and brooches and trinkets, which were put among the gold and plate, all of which John Isaacs took away to Guildford to give to one of the Guildford men (Levi Harwood), to go up to London with him to sell, for which the Guildford man was to have a share, as Isaacs did not then know where to go and sell it. There was also some clothing brought away, two pair of trou sers, one pair of cord breeches, and a large shawl. These were all hid and lost, as the policeman came after it. The three guns were hid by the roadside. My three companions all went together to London, and they gave me some money to take back to their women at Cop thorn-common, where we had four tents. About an hour after I had left the men, and had returned to Cop thorn-common and was packing up my things, two po licemen came along. They knew Brooks's wire, and in quired for Brooks; and they came and asked me where I was going? I told them I did not know, as I was a stranger to the country. They searched the tents, but they did not search me, although I had the money on me which I had shared. This was the same morning as the robbery at Hayward's-heath. Whilst the men were sharing the money the women hid the clothes, and that was why the policemen did not find them. The po licemen knew the women, and watched them, and talked to them for half an hour. I then moved to a place called the Chesnuts, by myself, but one tent with John Isaacs's wife, afterwatds came there. The two Brookses and John Isaacs and myself had each ono wife and ono tent, and I had a little girl with my wife. John Isaacs was to meet me at the Chesnuts, after he had sold the property. He was gone a week or beater. When he came back he said there was only 30s. each, besides the guineas, of which he burl only sold one, eith the other gold, to see what it would fetch, beeping the others back, so that the Guildford man should hot have his share of thew. Ho took the guineas again to sell, and pare me a sovereign down, on a promise to pay me the remainder; but he did not giveme any more money. There ;vase quarrel amongst, us about a large quantity of plate, which some of them said Isaacs had concealtd and bought his waggon with. Shortly ater this I fell in with Win. Brooks again, near Henfield, in Sussex, and I and Ned Lases went back again r.ith Brooks. We all three met in Wincham lane, near Henfield, and from there to a place called HembledoesSurrey, to break open a shop there. Brooks end Nel 'series broke it open, whilst I watched in front; they got in and took out two Large old cheeses,a quantity of tobacco, and a quantity of tea, and about a pound weight of snuff, a loaf of bread, and a pound of new butter. They drunk what wine they liked, and brought me out some in a quart pot, and then filled a three quart bottle to bring away. We three rsturned back to Winchanslane again, and I and Ned Isaacs did not meet John Isaacs at the time expected. We afterwards went to Copthorn-common for a few days; I think we stayed there a week. " On the afternoon of Tuesday, the 31st of December last, we, James Hamilton, John Isaacs, Joseph Carter, alias Cockman, John Smith, alias Hones, James Smith, alias Hones, Thomas Toot, alias Morgan, William Hill yer, and William Brooks met. After various messages and communications between ourselves, I (Hamilton) and Brooks and his wife, and James Smith, came on from Edenbridge to Crowborough. The other five men whom we tact at Edenbridge agreed to meet us at Groombridge, at a barn there just outside. These five men went to break open a public-house of Master Ken nard's, called the Old Pie. These five men met us out of Groombridge next morning, just about daylight. Brooks went to look after them, and found them in the corner of the wood close to the road. They gave us a plum-cake and a bottle of wine, and some whisky, and tobacco done up in pennyworths. I (Hamilton) had four, Jomes Smith had four. We (same) three men and Vie woman went on again, having agreed to meet the five men the same afternoon (Wednesday) just off Crowborough-common, in a foreign on the Uckfield side. Three of us, Isaacs, Carter, and myself, went into Miss Farncombe'a house, and got there between eight and nine o'clock to lay in front of the house and see how many lights and watch them to bed. We saw the latter fasten the front door. When the house was dark and quiet we were to go back to some haystacks close by, where we eight were to meet u ntil it was time to go. We all met at the haystack between the pay gate and the house, on the opposite side to Miss Farncombo's. We all went to Miss Farncomba's house, and as wo were going we met a woman and either two or three men on the road. We were all eight t o g ether then. Wo bed left Brooks's wife back at her uncle's, at Crowborougb.

The Frankfort journals state that, independently of and besides the promotion of its other plans, Austria will propose, as soon as the sittings of the Diet open, the establishment of a Central Executive, specially for preserving the public security throughout all the States of the Confederation. The former police not being organized for rapid and common action for one purpose, was inefficient, and the present plan will strengthen it and give it a more military organiza tion, or place under it a large portion of the mili tary force of each state, to carry out immediately the orders of the Central Commission, which will be se parated from the Executive Government of the Bund. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian of this day.) MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—The increased excess of receipts at the American ports has contributed to a still further weakening of public confidence in the present value of the raw material; and this effect has, in its turn, operated unfavourably upon the market for yarns and goods. In general, an impression that some fur ther decline in prices must take place has kept the buyers very much aloof from business; and the aggre gate of the day's transactions is therefore inconsiderable. There is, in some respects, a good deal of varianc e be tween th e experience of different persons —some having had more offers or found rather more inquiry; others making an opposite statement; all agreeing, however, as to an unfavourable tendency in prices. There is no doubt that the German merchants (whose advices show an active consumption at home, with very scanty sup plies) are restrained from operating largely in yarns, solely by the view above referred to; and, as it is, some of them have been induced, by the concession of *d. or id. per lb., to venture upon purchases of fair amount. Some of the makers of domestics have also succeeded in, selling on slightly reduced terms. ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—There has been a quiet market to-day; a thin attendance of buyers, and a limited num ber of sales. The wool market has been dull, with little doing, and prices stationary. MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—We have no alteration to notice on the state of the manufactured goods trade; very little business is doing; and yesterday being Easter Monday, most of the warehouses were closed for the usual holidays. In thrown silk there is absolutely no thing doing, the recent transactions in , raw, which it is now ascertained were done at a reduction of Is. 6d. per lb. on previous prices, having destroyed rail confidence for the present. HUDDERSFIELD TUESDAY.—III our ingset of to-day flatness has prevailed, and generallyilot - so much busi• ness is transacted on ' holiday Tuesday. The stocks in the Cloth Hall are vly on the increase; and the trade in plain woollens, of the lower qualities, is flat at pre sent. A fair business has been done in the fancy trade; and light goods, of new patterns, have taken very freely. The warehouses have been doing a fair home trade dur ing the week. The export warehouses are flat at present. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—Thero were not many buyers in our Piece Hall to-day; and they manifested great reluctance to purchase to any extent. There is more doing in yarn, and the quotations exhibit a little more firmness. The same may be said of wool, which is selling more freely, at fully late rates. LEEDS, TUESDAY.—We have had only a quiet market to-day at the Cloth Halls, but there has been a fair quan tity of goods delivered to order. Business continues rather dull in the warehouses for the home trade; but the shipping houses are busier. THE CHARGE AGAINST' THE MASTER OF ST. PANCRAS TVORKHO USE. Yesterday the usual weekly meeting of the directors and guardians of the poor was held in the Board-room of St. Pancras Workhouse, Mr. Churchwarden Baker in the chair. After some general conversation respecting the charge preferred against the master of the workhouse, Mr. E. IlictorAN said that he observed in the report of the proceedings before the magistrate, that Mr. Combo ordered that the master should have no communication with the girl Eliza Smith. He (Mr. IL) did not under stand how the magistrate's order could be enforced while the master was in full possession of his office, which he continued to execute.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. Churchwarden FRAZER said that every care was taken to prevent the communication. The girl was placed under the care of a paid nurse, who was directed to prevent her seeing the master or any one else, except ing the surgeon. Mr. HICKMAN—Who could or who dare prevent the master seeing or speaking with the girl? If any one dared to prevent him he (the master) could discharge the person. Mr. COOK (the clerk)—lf the nurse disobeyed the or ders of the board she would be di_missed.—(Hear.) Mr. HICKMAN cared nothing about " ifs" or " buts," he only wished to be informed whether all communica tion between the master and the girl was prevented? Mr. Churchwarden FRAZER—The nurse was ordered not to allow any communication botweoc them; and was further informed that a disobedience of the order of the board would be attended with her dismissal. Mr. Eliexmax put the question as a matter of duty, because Mr. Combe had emphatically forbid any com munication between the master and his accuser. Mr. CooKE—That was not correct, for Mr. Combe not only interdicted all communication between the master and the girl, but also between her playmates, and all par ties likely to influence her.—(Hear.) Mr. HlCKMAN—Justice to the master, to the girl, to the public, and to themselves, rendered it necessary that the magistrate's order should be strictly observed. Mr. DYKE—And so it was. Mr. Churchwarden FRAZER—She was not left in care of the schoolmistress, because a report prevailed that a bad feelieg existed between her and the master. The subject hero dropped, and the board adjourned. Vasa you, William?' I said, ' Yes, it is William, mans, don't be frightened; nothing is the matter.' Carter was at the door with a pistol in his hand, and when I made answer, It is William,' he turned round and was zoing to shoot me, only I sung out, ' It's all right.' Then I returned back to the door again to mind the' two ladies, and there I remained until they were all ready to leave the house. Isaacs returned back to the room where I was, and said, Take that little box under your arm.' The ladies had before that begged that it might not be taken, because it belonged to their grand-- father, I think they said. I took the box down stairs, and we all went away together. This was between four and five o'clock in the morning. When we came out we turned to the left and went up the road. We all eight kept together until we came to Crowhorough common, to the forest near the road as we came. We, turned off the main road at the top of the hill to the , left, and went across the common and a wheat-field and down into a wood, and there we all eight sat down, and had some breakfast from what we had brought from the house, consisting of some hare, veal, roast mutton, and I think some hug's-meat, some leaves of bread, two e hole cheeses, and two raw hams. We all shared this after breakfast, a sovereign and is. each in money, but there was a deal more money smuggled amongst them selves. I (Hamilton) had a Si. note also, which I got out of a pocket-book which Isaacs gave me as we went along to carry, and put it into my pocket. There was a good many more notes in the book. I gave him the book, and Isaacs took out the notes and gave me the book agsin, because the others knew I had got the book. He said be would give me half what he got for the notes. - This, was going along before our breakfast. After the breakfast and after the sharing of the money we looked t he plate over, and broke up what we thought was not silver. There were two gold watches and two silver ones; the two gold watches were along with the plate, and the silver plate which came from the Old Pie public house was put along with it. The two silver watches were put up amongst us for those w h o would give most for them. Carter was the highest bidder at 11s. for the small watches; and the other one, a double -cased one, was taken by Morgan for 255. The trinkets were .all • tied up together and put with the plate. Isaacs took all the plate, &c. in a flag basket. A cutlass was taken from - the house, and a tree chopped with it. Hillyer took the cutlass. We stayed in the wood until nearly ten o'clock in - the morning. We parted at the wood that Thursday morning. rand Jumes Smith and John Smith came away and parted from the other five, who went another way up through the wood. We agreed to meet at another place, and before Isaacs took the plate to London we were all eight to meet at Wallingham on the Friday night. We three went on to Groombridge, and John Smith was so tired that we could not get him along the road. We went into the public-house at Groombridge, where we had a good deal of beer. We there got tipsy. I dropped a sovereign, and John Smith picked it up and put it into his pocket, and took a shilling out of the other pocket and offered it to me. I had him taken by the constable. The sovereign I dropped was what was given me in the wood. Tho constable took John Smith into custody upon my charge to Tunbridge Wells that (Thursday) atternoon. I slept at Groombridge that night in the inn, and James Smith was put into the stable. When I was tipsy the landlord took 18s. 6d. from me to take care of. In the morning, when I got up, I asked the landlady for my money, which she retused to give me until she had seen the constable. I went to the constable, and told him I would rather lose the sovereign, an d pay his expenses, than go on with it. The constable told me the expenses to make it up would be a so vereign; and if so, I thought I had better leave the 18s. 6d. in the landlady's bands, and get away as fast as I could, rather than go to the Wells. I and James Smith started on the road for Tunbridge Wells, and then turned into a wood; and after we had got two miles half a dozen persons were after us, and took us. The beginning of all this was I was living at Woking common with my wife, and Hillyer lodged with me. About a week before Christmas a man named Thomas Gaines came to me at Woking-common, with a message from Isaacs to send Hilly or after Tom Toot, alias Morgan, to Shotter's mill, at Sarsams. Hillyer started away the day after Christmas-day after Toot, and re turned with Toot to my house on the Saturday, and Isaacs was to come himself by the first third-class train from Reading to Woking, and I was to meet him. I met him there. He came to my house the same Saturday afternoon, expecting to find Hillyer and Toot that Satur day night. They did not come. Isaacs stayed with me all Sunday night. Isaacs went alone on Sunday morning to Edenbridge, and on the way met the two Hones, alias Smiths, and asked them to be of the party. Toot and Hillyer were there before us. Brooks and Carter were there also. That made eight." It is estimated that the amount of property stolen by these men during the last two years cannot be less than 1,5001. When Isaacs was apprehended at Frome Mr. Morton, the superintendent of the Tunbridge Wells police, succeeded in tracing to the possession of the pri soner a valuable diamond ring, a gold chain, and a silver hunting watch, which were a portion of the property stolen from the Misses Farncombe in December last. These articles were on his person, and in the house where be was staying. Mr. Morton immediately seized them, and the friends of the prisoner forthwith applied to the county court at Frome, and procured a summons, which has been served on Mr. Morton for the amount of 101. 105., the alleged value of the articles. It will be seen, from the statements above given, that the band of burglars known as the " Fritnley gang" is now c ,mpletely broken up. At the last sitting of the tatl“istrates, the Chairman of the bench publicly stated thuG tbo whole credit of the capture of there dsrtng men, aid the exposure of their system, was due to Sir. Bid- I tleicoabe, the superintendent of the Surrey police. NAVAL liN T LLIGENCE. Captain the Bon. R. S.
