THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING DECEMBER 25 1 1850. MR. GEORGE HUDSON, M.P., AND THE " WEEKLY CHRONICLE." TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,— Not being personally known to you, I can only solicit the insertion of the enclosed letter in your journal on public g rounds. I think it essential to vindicate the honour of the press—which has been assailed in my person—from the imputation that every article that may be written by any friend of the proprietor of a paper must ne cessarily be for some corrupt purpose. Your obedient servant, ROBERT W. RUSSELL. 19, Northumberland-street, Dec., 1850. Sir,—A long career of misrepresentation, and a prac tised indifference to fact, has so completely case-har dened the Dublin Freeman's Journal to all the feelings of honour, truth, and justice, that one must not expect to be saved from its assaults by any of the considerations which hold the tongues and pens of men in the transac tions of ordinary life. A more striking instance of the effects of such a factious career on the spirit of public journalism can scarcely be conceived than is presented by the leafing article which appeared in that " organ," on Saturday last. under the title of •' Mr. Hudson and the Weekly Chronicle." It is not enough to say that its scope is untrue, its arguments disingenuous, its coeclusions unwarranted. In almost every line there is a falsehood; and it is besides so unjust and partial that I can only account for its appearance by the appli cation of the old saying, "Kites do not pick out kites' eyes." Mr. J. H. Doyle, in whose behalf it was written, is the correspondent of the Freeman's Journal! the wonderful London correspondent, who has asto nished the world with revelations of the most secret Cabinet Councils, ere they had dissolved ; earwigged from unsuspecting Ministers their whole policy, ere they rightly understood it themselves; and afforded more amusement to the Dublin public by his extraor dinary efforts to cater for the morbid taste of his patrons, than even Punch's" fat contributor." Those who have read his lucubrations at this side of the channel, under the head of " Latest Intelligence," in the Weekly Chronicle, of which unfortueate paper he was, and still claims to be, the editor, join, no doubt, with the sub scribers of the Freeman in admiring that ingenuity which enabled him to announce that Queen Victoria was going to Gibraltar; or that her Majesty had given orders fur 6 tie erection of a palace next door to the convent at Delkey." With this gentleman it is my misfortune to have been for some time associated as proprietor of the Weekly Chronicle. Not satisfied with compelling me to remain so, and hereby rendering me liable for debts contracted without my knowledge or consent, of which I have already had some alarming specimens, he has attempted to force into the partnership Mr. C. W. Dillon, a commercial traveller (formerly of Dablin), who is legally disqualified, were it otherwise in his power, from investing capital in the establishment. These two facts, the non-supply of capital, and the forcible introduction as a third partner of an uncertificated bank rupt, to say nothing of editorial mismanagement and corruption, led some months ago to such serious differ ences, that on the 6th Sept. I addressed a formal letter to Mr. Doyle, reminding him of bills dishonoured, of the unfair state of our capital account, and of the possibility of bankruptcy; and called on him either to sell his share or purchase mine upon equal terms. Consistently with his former declarations " to bind me to my agreement," he refused in writing t 3 entertain the proposition! After a struggling existence of this nature fir some months, during which articles were written by ono of Mr. Doyle's "ablest and most valued contributors," for any advertising company that chose to pay for them in the firm of patronage or the purchase of papers, and during which Mr. Doyle himself has inserted " Letters to the Editor" of a highly offensive character, with no other and no higher motive—Mr. .Digby Seymour, a distinguished member of the English bar, sent me for re view a copy of a pamphlet, edited by himself, of Mr. Hud son's evidence at York. In the course of a few days I wrote to Mr. Seymour as a private friend, expressing my individual opinion on the subject, and asking him to fa vour me with a notice written in a moderate and rather ju • dicial tone, confining his remarks to the evidence in ques tion, and taking care not to commit the Weekly Chronicle to.a general justification of Mr. Hudson. That letter, lam happy to say, has b.en preserved. Mr. Seymour sent me the review, which I handed to Mr. Doyle, expressing my admiration of it as a literary composition, and assenting to its publication. Mr. Doyle states the truth in saying that he hesitated; nay, more, he even raised de jection3 to its insertion. But he does not state the truth in saying that he yielded to my "earnest solicitations"— as that is a style of request I never resort to, and one which I am least of all likely to adopt towards:my equal only in authority. No; the " open sesame" to Mr. Doyle's editorial sanction was contained on the fly-leaf of Mr. Seymour's note to me, in the form of an order fir 200 papers ! The moment I m-ntioned that fact, the editorial pen was set to work—a few isolated words were expunged—the review was " modified" and printed, and Mr. Dillon, the publisher (Mr. Doyle's other self ), joyfully dispatched the 200 papers as directed—albeit, the directions were taken from - a " cl , cateent from under my own hand, and now in the possession - of John Henry Doyle!"—being, in fact, nothing more nor less than a copy of the names and addresses sent me by Mr. Seymour, with whom„l need scarcely say. I made no stipulation about papers, and who knows full well that a suggestion of the kind would have been as offensive to me as it could hare been unworthy of hirivelf. That review appeared in the Weekly Chronicle of Sept. 15. On the following Thursd , ►y, of er going through the books of the establishment, I again called Mr. Doyle's attenti,in to the embarrassed state of our affairs, informing him in a very decided and peremptory tone that I would not, if it saved the establishment from bankruptcy, increase my liabihtic another shilling. At first Mr. Doyle said he would consent to a sale of the paper; but subsequently he suggests d that, " as we had done good service to Mr. Hudson, he did not see why Mr. ITuelson should not be asked to do a service to ❑s." I at once repudiated the idea of such an application as preposterous and absurd, and utterly denied, as far as I was concerned, ever having done Mr. Hudson a service. Both Doyle and e 'Dillon then 'suggested that Mr. Seymour ought to be solicited to discount a bill for 1501., that being the sum of which the establishment was in immediate want. In an equally determined manner I objected to any such re quest, observing that, even if Mr. Seymour were to grant it, I should moat certainly refuse to put my name on the bill, having, as I said, fully resolved not to incur any fresh liability. Seeing, however, that Mr. Doyle per sisted in his intention of making the application, I con sented to accompany Mr. Dillon, le fling, if I did not, • that he might commit me to the request. As we ap proached Mr. Se} moues chambers, in the Temple, Mr. Dillon said he thought it would be better that I should sea Mr. Seymour alone, to which I readily assented, rejoicing at the opportunity thus afforded, and of which I instantly availed myself, candidly to repeat to Mr. Seymour the whole conversation that had just taken place as my only excuse for being the bearer of so unjustifiable an appli cation from Messrs. Do) le and Dillon. I assured Mr. Seymour at the very outset that I was no party to it-- that if I required 1501. I could command it without bor- rowing, and that I had refused to pay the dishonoured bills of the establishment because I had already supplied more than half the capital, and had been cautioned by my solicitor not to advance a farthing more unless on the condition of winding up the affairs of the paper. hether I said these things to Mr Seymour that gentle man alone can testify. I have only to add that the request was not complied with, and that coming from men with whom he was barely acquainted, it naturally evoked from him a stronger feeling still than indignation. Before I left I asked Mr. Seymour for the second article he had promised me on the subject of Mr. Hudson's evidence. He said he had not had time to write it, and that after what had just occurred, he felt little disposed to do so. Eventually, however, he said that if he could make time that evening he would write another article in completion of the first, and let me have it next morning. I received it next day and handed it to Mr. Doyle, who instantly recorded his rejection of it, on a slip of paper, of which he seems to have kept a copy in anticipation of that exposé with which he has ever since been menacing Mr. Seymour, Mr. B—, one of the most distinguished members of the Irish bar, Mr. W. H. Russell, of the Middle Temple, and myself, lind which I am in a position to prove by one of these ger, Vernet), he consented to withdraw for a money con sideration!! That is not all. As I told him at the time—his declaration in writing only made his venality the more glaring, for while he disapproved of this se cond article just as he had of the first, he nevertheless, on that same evening, intimated that in the then embar rassed state of the paper, he should not feel himself jus tified in inserting it for less than 100/. I assured him in the most impressive manner that I had no authority to offer payment in any shape, and that I would be no party to accepting payment if it were offered for its insertion. The article, therefore, did not appear, as I stated in my letter to the Times, " because it would not he p id for. I then, as now, drew this comparison between us—that whereas I approved of the article, and considered that if it were inserted, not sneakingly in an obscure corner of the paper, but boldly, prominently, independently and. without remuneration, as coming from a political exponent, it would elevate rather than damage the character of the paper—be, disapproving of and disa vowing the opinions it contained, was ready, as before, though at a higher price, to barter his principles for a mess of potage. This was the language I used then—l repeat it now, and I have the authority of Mr. Seymour for stating in corroboration (not being myself cognizant of the fact) that in the ensuing week after that article had been returned to him, Mr. Dillon, as the represen tative of Mr. Doyle, called upon Hr. Seymour, and sug gested (parenthetically alluding to some " kind friend," and the " discounting of a bill") that it might not be too late to insert Mr. Seymour's article in the publication of the following Saturdai ! In a letter to the Times, dated December 4th, Mr. Digby Seymour, after repudiating" the very disgraceful imputation of h eying endeavoured to corrupt tee Weekly Chronicle," say s That I wrote is sle rt notice f Mr. Hudson's evi dence at Yolk, whit h appeared in that newsp:lper on the 15th of September, is true. I wrote it at the in stance and request of Mr. Russell, anj, as I then beteeved with the entire saection and concurrence of his partner„ Mr. Deyle. That I asked Mr. Russell to direct Mr. Dalai, the publisher, to f qward 200 copies of the paper containing my article to the addresses m.ntioncd in Mr. Doy lee: letter is equally true. Tt at I wrote a se c mei art'cle, ceacluling and in MT ptetion of the f r mer (but to' a panegyric on Mr. Iltelson' and merely a review of his evidence), is also true—but I did tertadee. That is the head and front of my offending! never sugg.sted—l tiever offered a bribe. The idea never crossed my mind. It is true that the second article did not appear, but I myself insisted on its being re stored to me, and destroyed it with my own hands rather than accede to the terms upon which it was offered to be inserted—an offer which did not come from Mr. Robert W. Russell." The following, is my second letter to the editor of the Times, which, as well as Mr. Seymour's, was so care fully omitted by the Freeman's Journal : I Sir,—l trust you will insert the following paragraph I (omitted from my letter in the Times of Tuesday)Pin reply to the statement of facts' in your paper of to day, signed John Henry Doyle:— "' It may be, when the truth is known, that the world will one day think that the origin of the indignation manifested against Mr. Hudson is not anything he, or any ono on his behalf, has done, or attempted to do — but rather what he has not done, and what a gentleman, supposed to have influence with him, indignantly re fused to do en his behalf. That gentleman is Mr. Digby Seymour, who during the last two months has, to my knowledge, been frequently menaced with this charge of corruption—at length publicly made, but since privately withdrawn.' " Now, notwithstanding the circumstantial nature of Mr. Doyle's "facts," I again solemnly assert that the charge of corruption they are meant to convey is utterly false; that the attempt at corruption was on his part, and was resisted by me; that the article he alludes to did not appear because its insertion would not be paid for; and that our dispute, which he has sworn originated with that circumstance, existed for months before. Most truly, then, might I say to Mr. Doyle, and also to Mr. Dil lon (who, I presume, will "corroborate" Mr. Doyle'. statement), de to fabula narrotur. As my defence fur the present must rest mainly on my ow❑ character and vera city, I have only to hope that the public will suspend their judgment until both can be fairly tested and placed side by side with the evidence and character of my accusers. This, however, I may say, as it is a fact recorded—that when, a fe .v wer k s since, I we s necessitated to seek the protection of a magis trated from the violence of• Mr. Dillon, who threat ened to turn me from my own establishment, he was bound over to keep the peace towards me for six months, on my single testimony, contradicted though it was by himself, unsworm, by Mr. Doyle upon his oath, by Mr. Allen upon his oath, and upon the oaths of two other servants in the establishment, all of whom are retained in it contrary to my wishes. Against such a formidable array of witnesses I should fear to stand were I not forti fied by the belief that truth will triumph is the end.—l have the honour to be, Sir, your very obedient servant, Dec. 4. ROBERT W. RUSSELL. If I can prove the assertions in this letter, and I pledge myself to do it, then Mr. Doyle has swor❑ falsely in asserting that our partnership dispute and the proceedings in bankruptcy arose out of the rejection of an article which was not even written till Friday, the 20th September. On the 6th of that same month I wrote the letter to Mr. Doyle, already referred to, and concluded it by saying—" If you do not consent to one of these propositions, I shall infer that you do not mean honourably by your part ner." The existence of our dispute for weeks before the 20th September can be proved, not by servants in the establishment, but by gentlemen whose oaths it is no compliment to them to:say, will, at least, be as valuable as that of Mr. J. H. Doyle. That the proceedings in bankruptcy bad no earthly connexion with that article has already been recorded before Mr. Commis sioner Fonblanque, on the oath of the petitioning creditor. He distinctly swore that when last in London (which was on the 26th of August), I told him that I was most unpleasantly situated with my partner and his friend Mr. Dillon, and that I really feared I had no alternative between immediate bankruptcy and ultimate ruin. The same witness stated distinctly on oath, and in reply to a question direct from the Commissioner. that Mr. Doyle, whom he had never seen but once before, had sworn falsely in asserting that he (witness) had upon that first and only interview conversed with him about my private pecuniary affairs—a thing, to say the least, not very probable. In dealing, therefore, with Mr. Doyle's sworn testimony, it must not be considered as in no degree disproved. Entirely so, and, I venture to say, satisfactorily so, it would have been, had he had the courage to examine his own witnesses in the persons of Mr. Dlgby Seymour and myself. Not having done so, I am compelled to adopt this means of vindicating myself from charges which, if simply personal, I should treat with contempt, but which, as involving the " purity of the British press," I am bound, as a public journalist, to refute and expose, if, as I think I have shown, it is in my power to do so, despite the prejudice against which I have to contend, fully conscious of my own innocence, and painfully impressed with the well-founded belief that a mere grovelling lave of gain is the mainspring of those unscrupulous accusations. And now one word for the Freeman's Journal. After the inroad I have made upon your space, I must neces sarily be bria. Mr. Doyle, the ex-reporter, and now de bent esse correspondent of the Freeman's Journal, declared, on his examination in the Bankruptcy Court, that he believed he would not have stood where he did but for his refusal to lend him self to an attempt on my part to corrupt the Weekly Chronicle. The Times, struck by so startling an asser tion, wrote one article thereupon, more, however, for the purpose of insinuating that its contemporaries who had taken up Mr. Hudson's defence had received some weighty reasons for their advocacy, than for the purpose of espousing Mr. Doyle's quarrel, or of vindicating his cause, and thereupon the Standard, Herald, and Post indignantly remonstrated against the injustice of such insinuations, grounded upon the more noisy outburst of a dissappotnted and almost des perate man. The Freeman's Journal then writes an article, no doubt on suggestions from the proper quarter, which is quite a curiosity for the ingenious diversity of misrepresentation and falsehood which abound in every sentence. They state in elt-ct that King Hudson and his retainers thought bis restoration to his loss throne would be best securt d by corrupting some portions of the press, and ruining such men as he could not corrupt. He and his retainers (you will one day learn who those really were who would have been his retainers if they could) therefore set to work to corrupt that most important and in fluential paper, the Weekly Chronicle, and be cause they could not succeed in shaking the iron integrity of Mr.. Doyle (who was ready, how ever, to puff Mr. Dover's sewage manure plan, or the Glace Percha Company's operations fur a small " order"), they absolutely sought to make him a bank rupt—as it such an attempt were impossible to any one who had not the enormous resources of Mr. Iltelson himself. The Freeman next asserts that the Commis sioner in Bankruptcy confirmed the view taken by the limes that the ex-King (for in the next sentence the Freeman dethrones him) sought by corrupting the public press to re-establish his shattered throne. A more impudent inertial could scarcely be imagined. The sole question before the Commissioner was, whether the petitioning creditor's debt was sufficient to enable hint to sustain an adjudication in bankruptcy, and the Free man grossly libels a Learned Judge when it proclaims to the world that in order to punish Mr. 'Hudson, who was not before the Court, he gave judgment against the petitioning creditor, who only sought to recover his money, acid decided the question on an issue which he emphatically declared to be quite irrelevant. The Times in its " one" leader expressly declared that Mr. Doyle's statement was s part?, and that a witness, whom the Court would not examine, had offered to refuto it, adding, that Mr. Doyle " seemed to be an honourable man," (i. e. for all that appeared in the ex parte case to the contrary). ",The extraordinary process by which a docket of bankruptcy was struck against Mr. Doyle only " (the proceedings having been taken against me as well, although the Freeman says other wise) was that very extraordinary process by which people who owe money, and cannot give security for its payment, are rendered liable to the operation of the laws of England: but as the Freeman expressly declares that this is a foreign case (all the persons engaged in it being, however, Irishmen), it may be excused for the ignorance of law which it joins to its indifference to fact. One would think the Freeman would be rather chary of quoting the authority of the Times, but it drags in the name of that paper a second time, for the pur pose of remarking that it "declared in the most em phatic manner Mr. Doyle's honour was untouched in the whole transaction." The whole article of the Frsenian contains no greater falsehood. I offer to plead guilty to every charge against me. if in substance, letter, or spirit, a single extract from the Times can be produced which makes any such declaration. In the same spirit, the Freeman states that Mr. Seymour's letter, and my second letter, merely denied Mr. Doyle 'e statement. I leave your readers to de cide if that is net of a piece with their former alle gations. No! Mr. Seymour admitted the greater part of Mr. Doyle's statement; but ho added much that Mr. Doyle did not state, in his concluding aid significant remark, that an offer of corruption had indeed been made, but not by Mr. R. W. Russell. Where every paragraph of this article is distorted by a spirit of gross partiality and inaccuracy, which I must suppose to be wilful, I must only be content with having thus pointed out a few of the most glaring. lam re joiced to find that there is even one sentence which, mutatis mutandis, can be applicable to the real facts of the case, and I give the Freeman the benefit of it:— " But we do not refer to the matter now for any other purpose than to exhibit the means by which persons having power and other people's money at th e ir di s po sa l attempt to make both instrumental in the seduction of the press for their own base ends, and the still more base attempts which they make to crush men whom they cannot corrupt." Such is my object in writing this letter. One of the most odious crimes known to the law is the attempt to extort money by threats of infamous accusations. It will soon be seen if there were any persons in the Weekly Chronicle guilty of such an offence. Next in importance to money, perhaps, is " political capital ; " but I believe those who have been unsuccessful in their Schemes to raise the one will speedily be detected in their stratagem to obtain the other, and in that belief I confidently await the result which cannot now be long distant, and the judgment of my countrymen and the public.—l have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, ROBERT W. RUSSELL. 19, Northumberland-street, Strand, D.c. 12. A STUPID BRADFORD JURYMAN.—A certain gen tleman from Bradford, who wears a broad brim, and who is an advocate of many things which would be a benefit to the town, but unfortunately never agitates for the abolition of the coke, happened to he on the jury at the York Assis, , , when the case was heard " Wright a. P Aty " for highway robbery. The evidenc e o f th e robbery was e clear and con clusive; notwithstanding, this " Friend of the Peace So ciety" declared that he would not be a party to find the man guilty, unless a witness could be produced, in addition to the prosecutor, who saw the robbery committed. Of course the jury could not agree upon their verdict, the con sequence was they had to retire. Mr. Broadbrim b u tt one d oufp2ipisrocgo,a't' coat , , saying ylnghe had pro vi ded hi mse lf w i th plenty unless the . eleven would give way to him he would certainly sit until next day. friend of th e Bradford soke, 'however, discovered that his colleagues were as well prepared as be was ; and consequently, after sitting about two hours, he gave in to the verdict of guilty, and the man was transported for ten years.—ffaltiax Guardian.

FRUIT.--There are sellers of Currants at lower rates, but sales aro upon a limited sca'e at 40s to 453 per cwt, sad the market is well supplied. Raisins are deals in with caution, and sellers are disposed to accept 37s to 393 for Valencia, and 403 to 90s for low to superior Muscatels. Figs are less in demand, and a desire is evinced to realize at 44s to 755. The value of new Jor don Almonds is 61103 to 9/; the market has a very quiet appearance. SALTPETRE.—There continues to be a good demand, and importers evince confidence; none has been offered at auction since . our last report, and the stock is on the decrease. The parcels sold privately were at 28s to 293 61 for common to fine, and there are large purchases rather under these rates. British Re fined has been in good demand at 303 6d to 31s, and with not free sellers. Ytrate of Soda, is held for 14s to 14s 6‘i, still few sales have been made. COCHINEAL —Tl.ere is no further redaction, but the amount of business concluded has been upon a small scale for all purposes; the stock does not diminish. O 240 bags at auction, a small part only sold; Hondu ras Silvers common to good at 3s 81 to 3s 101; mid to good black 4s 3d to 4n 61; Mexican Silvers, 33 81 to 3s 9d, and black 33 10d ta 3s 11d. INDIGO.—Tbe market continues in a dull state, and some parcels of Manilla have been sold at a reduction on last sales rates of 21 to 3d, but Bengal or Madras cannot be obtained under the terms of that period. Spanish has been operated in with caution, and late rates are not to be abtaiued. METALS,—There continues to be much activity in the market for tin, and prices for East India are still on the advance, ruling at 843 to 85s per cwt. For arrival several parcels have been disposed of. A good business has been done in Tin Plates, and improved prices; one C Coke selling at 283 to 28e 6i, and Charcoal ditto at 33s to 34s per box, hilst a further advance is looked for on the spot. Speller is offersyi at 161 7s 6d to 161 108 per ton, but met with little attention. For arrival not much has been done, and 16/ 5s to 161 7s 6d in the value. Lead is held with firmness, and many purchases have been made; British Pig realized 171 5s to 17/ 103, and Sheet 18/ to 18/ 10s. In Copper there is still no variation. There has been a good deal doing in Pig Iron, and the market is firm; Scotch at 43s 6d to 44. 6d according to assortment; and Welch 52s to 725. In Manufactured Iron sales continue of im portance. Welch Bars at 41 15s to 5/, and Rails at 51 to 51 5s per ton. Swedish Steel is still 141 103 to 15/ lOs per ton. Tannow.—There has been only a limited business concluded in Russian on the spot, and prices have a downward tend , nc) ; fine new yellow Candle being offered at 36s 9,1 to 37s per car. For delivery in January and February there are sellers at 36s 3d to 36s 9d ; and fur February and March at 36s 9d, but only small contracts have been concluded. The rates quoted tor the last three months of the year are 38s 61 to 395, but there has again been nothing doing. Although home melted is offered at 36. 9d to 378 net cash, operations are upon a d scale, and the sup ply is greater than in the previous week. o,her sorts are purchased with caution; and of 390 cks Australian at auction a part only sold at from 35s to 37e 3d; but 110 cks Petersburgh Soap were mostly taken in at 34s 9,1 to 355. No public sales are declared for Friday. OlLS.—There has been only a limited business concluded in Rape Seed Oil, and more desire is evinced to sell, brown at 35s 6d to 365, pale 37s 6d to 37s 9d; and Foreign 38s to 38s 6d per cwt. Linseed Oil is offered upon rather lower terms, but home dealers operate with caution, and few shipping orders were completed. Oa the spot there are sellers at 32s 6d to 32s 9d, and for delivery at 32s 9d to 33!, there is also a further increase of supply, but a fair consumption prevails. Palm is in good request, and prices have become firm, fine has been selling at 28s 6d to 295, and stipply is yet limited. In Olive there is not much doing; at the same time merchants are firm, and obtain for Gallipoli 431 to 44/, other descriptions 411 to 421 lOs per tun, but an improved demand is looked fur shortly. Cocoa Nut sells with more freedom; Ceylon at 293 to 31s, Cochin 30s to 325, and stock is not so large as a few weeks back. Seal Oil is offered at a reduc tion, yet few buyers are to be met with, pale is to be obtained at 371 to 381, tinged and straw 35/ lOs to 36/10s yellow and brown 341 to 361.

Southern is cheaper, the supply being more plentiful at from 341 to 37/forlow to fine quality, however, a good business has been concluded. The market for Sperm is in a quiet position, and lower rates are anticipated, fine sort is to be obtained at 851 to 861.

DREADFUL EXPLOSION at ABERDARE. _ LOSS OF SIX LIVES. (From the Cambrian.) Another of those sad events which periodically oc cur here has again happened, casting a gloom around, and depressing the minds of all living , within the circumference of the coal fields of Wales. It is true, the victims of the fatal damp have many sym pathisers, but none can sympathise so well as those acquainted with the perilous duties of the collier and the miner. Hard-taxed to supply the wants of their families, kept from the pure air of heaven, and inhaling the noxious vapours, which, combining, destroy them, and this, too, at wretchedly low wages, their lot is surely to be pitied, and a great allowance made for those excesses generally observed in the coal districts. Scarcely has the pub lic mind recovered from the shock caused by the intelligence of the explosion at the isletty Shenkin Colliery, last year, when another occurs, happily not so destructive of life, throwing the inhabitants of the little hamlet into consternation and fear. On Thursday evening intelligence was received ut Mer thyr, of an explosion having , occurred at the New Dyffryn Pit, Aberdare, by which it was rumoured thirty lives were lost, and many wounded. Upon arriving at the place we found the rumoured number of men killed to be greatly exag gera'ed, at the most there being but six or seven, although the catalogue of wounded was large, and the injuries severe. It appears that about four o'clock on Thursday afternoon a slight tremulous motion of the ground was felt by the people living within the vicinity of the pit, and immediately afterwards a vivid flash of light was seen to issue from the shaft. Well aware of what had taken place the inha bitants thronged to the spot, presenting a scene ima gination could not conceive. Mothers were running, as if distracted, about the shaft—wives, with pale faces and looks of horror, were gazing tremblingly at the mouth of the pit, down which in the morning those " near and dear " to them bad descended, in the full enjoyment of health and their small portion of happiness, but from which the eager expectants could now only imagine them borne mutilated specimens of what once existed. Every now and then, as the fancy called up some image of those eemed dead, a wailing cry would issue from the crowd, be echoed again and again, and then die into a heart-moving sob, which truly bespoke the agony of the bereaved. Add to this the gloomy night—the many torches flitting about—the rushing to and fro of the crowd appearing by torchlight ghastly and fearful—toge ther with the faint cry for succour from the survivors at the bottom of the pit, and you have a scene of such sad reality, that we would not willingly "look upon its like again." Such was the force of the explosion that a boy at the mouth of the pit was thrown down, and sustained a concussion of the brain. The sides of the shaft were also blown in, thus choking up the regular means of access to the colliery. Willing hands were soon, however, in readiness to assist the survivors, and means having been found of descending the air -shaft, most of the men were soon rescued. Two men were buried under a fall of rubbish, and were only bad out on Monday, life of course quite extinct. Three of the colliers were killed by the explosion, another has since died of his in juries. The majority of the men have, however, sus tained injuries, which with some are expected to terminate fatally ; with others, to incapacitate them from work for a long time ;and with most all to remain as severe wounds, and be remembered for many a year, and eventually carried down to the grave with them. The cause of this melancholy occurrence is not yet known, but will doubt less transpire at the inquest, on Thursday next. By some it is attributed to carelessness ; this may be the case, as the colliers are notorious for their wilful disregard of life, ven turing into dangerous headings where the coal has fallen for the sake of better luck, and thus endanger ing their own lives and those of their fellow-workmen for a trivial gain. The New Dyffryn Pit has n o t, we believe, been worked more than three years, and some part of that time the workmen were idle, being engaged in a long, and to them disastrous strike, the result of which was the refusal of their mas ters to accede to their terms—their dismissal—and their places refilled with colliers from the Forest of Dean, and a few of the turncoats. The rapidity with which explosion follows explosion here, loudly called for Government irstuiry ;- and at last we have the pleasure of knowing what Government inspectors have been appointed to institute a rigorous survey of the coal and mine-pits of the district. This is not before it was wanted, and if they are competent for their undertaking, we may hope to hear less of these disas trous events which render the business of a collier a doubtful and hazardous risk. WHOLESALE PoAcuING.—A marauding gang, con sisting of between fif.een and twenty men, made their ap pearance at Boreatton, in this county, on Friday night, when they assaulted one of the servants and itole several fowls. A number of poachers—probably the same lot as the fore going— entered the grounds of Captain Williams, Eaton Mascolt, on Tueiday night. They wounded one of the keepers severely, and shot a valuable dog. One of them, Morris alias Skiver, was apprehended in Roushill, in this town, and has been remanded for .further examination. — Shropshire Conservative. DEATH OF THE MAILER .

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION HOUSE. Henry Sellers, occasional errand boy to Messrs. Wich, Newman, and Co., general commission mer chants in Bury-courteeSt. Mary Axe, was charged with having stolen a quantity of indigo and other goods, the property of his employers, and Moses Barnett, a clothesman, was charged with having re ceived the property. A clerk to the prosecutors said—Sellers had access to a large chest of indigo and several small ones, and had been in the habit of taking out samples. On the 11th of December we missed about 10Ib. of cochineal, value 2/. 10s., from a drawer in the sample-room. Next day I met Sellers coming down stairs with a bag, and be looked into the counting-hous e , and asked me if there was anything to be done ? Observing that his pockets were encumbered, I told him to walk into the counting-house. He then asked me to forgive him, and, upon my desiring him to empty his pockets, he pulled a bag of indigo out of each of them. The quantity he exhibited was worth 3/. 17s. He begged that I would forgive him, for the sake of his poor father, who knew nothing at all about the business ; and he said it was all the doing of a Jew, who pre • veiled upon him to rob the indigo-room. Mr. Wich said—Sellers said he had robbed us since the last Monday in consequence of an old Jew being at him for the last month to induce him to steal, to increase his wages. Ha told me that the Jew's name was Barnett, and that he lived somewhere near Wellcluse• square. I went to the police-station and obtained the aid of' an officer, and I caused the indigo which had been found uprn the boy to be marked. Trew, the officer—l asked Sellers, upon taking him into custody, where he was going with the indigo ? He said to a Jew, named Barnett, who kept a clothes shop. He told me also that he had taken indigo to the place about three times before ; that Barnett met him about two months ago in Mincing-lane, and said to him, " Boy, where do you work ? You are in the indigo trade, are you not ?' to which he replied " Yes," and to other questions put by the Jew he replied that he was in the employment of Messrs. Wich and Ca., and that be was paid a shilling a day; that the Jew offered to buy samples of him, and at last, by frequent soli citations, prevailed upon him to rob his masters. It was agreed that the boy should go with the marked indigo to the Jew, and that one of the clerks and I should follow. When we got to Grace's-alley, Well - close-square, Sellers went into the house No. 16, which is a clothes shop, and after remaining there about two minutes be came out with 4s. in his band, and said be had sold the indigo to the Jew for that sum. We all then went into the shop, and I saw him with a scoop scale containing indigo, which he was examining. I said, " I want this indigo which you have just bought of this lad." He said, "Here it is, but I have not bought it. The boy has left it here." I said, "The boy says you gave him 4s. for it, and I have got them." He made no answer to that. I searched his place, and with the assistance of Kilby, an officer who accompanied me, we found one bag of rice, three bags of raw coffee, and one bag of gutta percha, one bag containing some chesnuts, one bag containing 23 brass stamps, 12 sample bottles containing various samples, one bottle of Cayenne pepper, a quantity of cinnamon, of oatmeal, of shell lac, two bags of sego, and other bags containing black dye, ginger, arrowroot, gum, sugar, nux-vomica, coculus indicus, &c. Upon his cross-examination for Barnett the wit ness said—lt was not at my suggestion the boy went to Barnett's house with the bag of indigo. I have taken away from Barnett's house some invoices and papers. Barnett looked through them for the purpose of ascertaining that he had paid for those goods; but he only found one relating to some castor oil, which I did not, consequently, take. He was in a state of great trepidation and fear. Upon his re-examination, the witness said—lt did not appear, from the appearance of the shop, that the Jew dealt in indigo. The articles I seized were, some of them under the counter, and some behind the counter. The gutta percha was in a bag, before the counter, on the floor. Henry Sellers, the prisoner, was then ordered to go from the bar to the witness-box, for the purpose of being examined as evidence against Barnett. The following, which was listened to with intense interest, was the principal part of the statement of the boy :—" The first time I saw Barnett was in Mincing lane ; and, after asking me whether I was not in the indigo trade and who my master was, be asked if my master had any indigo samples to sell that were lett at the sales. I said, 'No, Sir ; ba returns them, I believe, to the warehouse.' He then said, Do you ever have any dust of your own (meaning indigo dust) ?' I said, ' No ; I have no perquisites allowed me.' He said, Oh I then you have high wages, I suppose ?' I said, No, Sir, I have not ; I have only ss. a-week whilst I am employed at the sale times, and if my master wants me any day after the sale, he gives me ls. a day.' He said, know boys of less age than you, and smaller, and they get more money a- week than you do.' I said, 'Do you ? I wish I bad better wages and a better place ; but I have very little work, and my master is very kind.' He then stopped to consider; and he said, ' Your master has a great many samples open ?' I said,' My master had at sale time: Can you not,' said he, take a small piece out of each sam ple ? If there is only an ounce out of each sample, and there were 100 samples, that would be 100 ounces, and I would give ls. a pound for any - you bring me. Will you do it ?' I said, No, I will not steal.' He then said, ' Why, you are having very low money, and that would help you on.' I said, Yes, but an honest penny is worth a silver shilling.' I saw Barnett afterwards several times in the lane. Each time be spoke to me in the same same kind of way. At length, on Friday, the 6th of December, I con sented to steal. 1 met him then in Hart-street, and he said to me, 'Well, have you made up your mind ?' I was considering what I should do, as I had no em ployment that week. Says he, What are you break ing your head about ?' I said, About nothing.' He said, You are a young fool to be thinking about anything when you have nearly a golden ball in your hand.' He said to me, Will you bring any indigo ?' I said, I will ;' and I said to him, ' Shall I bring you some to-morrow ?' He said, 'Not to-morrow, that is my Sabbath ; bring mesomeon Monday morning, as early as you can. I went on Monday morning to my em ployer's place at an early hour. The housekeeper was the only person there. I went upstairs, where there were some chests under a table, and I took about five pounds of indigo, put it in two papers, weighed it in the scales, and took it to Barnett's shop. It was about a quarter to ten o'clock when I went there, and I saw a woman there, who called out, 'Bar nett, come here.' The servant was in the kitchen, and Barnett said, ' Oh ! you want a pair of trousers,' and put a pair into my hand. He said to me, Well, if you don't like that pair there is a pair behind the counter i • and I went behind the counter, and- took out both parcels, and gave them to him, and he put them into a scale. He said there was only three pounds, and I said, You make a mistake, there is five.' lie said then, ' Oh, yes, I see now,' and be gave me ss. and I went away ; aed the next morning I went again to my master's place, and took four pounds from the same chest. I put them into one parcel and took it to Barnett, who was standing at the door. I went into the shop, and looked at a meerschaum pipe, and he said I could have' it for 61b. of indigo. I said there were 41b. there, and he said he would trust to my generosity to bring the other 21bs. I said no, it was making too much of a market of me, as it was a pipe I could buy for 2s. 6d., and he wanted Gs. for it. He praised the pipe up, but I did not take it, end he gave me 4s. for the indigo. The woman came out of the parlour and 'Asked me if I could get 'any saffron. I said, I dare say I can.' She said, I use it for colouring my soup.' I said, What instead of turmeric.' She said, Yes.' I went back to my master's, but could not find any saffron, but I saw some cochineal, and I took 41b. of that and put it into a parcel, and took it to him the same day. I said to him, You must give me a good price, for it is a beautiful article.' He said it only fetched 2s. 61 per lb., and it was not the best silver gray. He offered me is per lb. I offered it to him at ls. 3d. per lb., and it should be his. He said, Not a farthing snore '—(Laughter)—and he paid me is. per lb. On Wednesday morning I went again to my master's place and took 5 lb. of indigo out of the same chest, and took it to Barnett who said,:' You are doing this as a maid drinks—you are going on any how.' I said, can't do any better.' He gave me ss. for it, and I left him. On Thursday morning I went again to my master's place, and stole 10Ib. of' indigo from another box, but was detected by Mr. Appell." The witness then stated that he went, at the desire of the prosecutors, with the indigo to the Jew, and the other circumstances which were represented by the other witnesses. Upon his cros-sexamination the witness said—My master said, if I would P-11 the truth he would forgive IS. It was not in consequence of that promise that I dischee d it. I thsugi t I fisd done wrong, and I thought I would be right to pi otect other poor boys by telling. I did it because my parents were too poor to give me anything. The money I received from Barnett I spent in waste. Kilby, who accompanied Trew, also gave evidence. George Woodgate, in the service of a broker in Crutched-triar-, said he was with h ssitnes- Sellers about two mt nth. ago, i , l 1‘11r) .;og lane, vrl-cid Bassett beckoned to Ssllers, who wen' fo I t was stated that Barnett had trequeutly been seen talking to boys who were employed in the ser vice of merchants in the neighbourhood of Mincing lane. The prisoner said he would reserve his defence for the time of his trial, a< then folly ctimmittca for tri el. A person naisied Gardner w -s ds. d with having stolen at various times from his late employers, Messrs. Thompson and Co., of No. 5, Trinity-square, ship-brokers, sums of money amounting in the whole to aly , ut 2001. Mr. Ba;:Antine attended for the pro ecuticn, and Mr. Chrkson for the defence. The books were produced, and it was shown that alterations had been made for the purposes of deception. Alderman GIBBS ordered that the prisoner should give bail, himself in 4001., with two sureties in 200 1 . each, to answer the charge at the next session of the Central Criminal Court. The LORD MAYOR requested that the press would acknowledge his receipt of 101. 10,1. from the Me" chant Taylors' Company, and half of a 51. note, ono" nymous, for the poor-box. - THAMES. Several depositors of the Penny Saving s -b a nk, or St. James's, Rateliff, Provident Society, the receiver and distributor of which has disappeared , and is re" presented to be a defaulter to a considerable amount, attended before Mr. Yardley to complAin of the lila, of their hard-earned savings, and also to hear the e%- planation of the R= v. Mr. Williams, incumbent of St ° James's district church, who was always looked 11131° as the head of the society, and the person responsible for the repayment of the depositors' savings. In the evening just before the magistrate was about to retire from the bench, the Rev. Mr Williams, so' companied by Mr. Harrie, parish clerk, n ame int° at°' the court, and made a long address to the magi'trri and said the society originated with the Rev' Spencer, his curate, fiv e years ago, and that he ('", f ' Williams) never sanctioned is or ha d anything whatever to do with it—that on the Rev. P r ; Spencer leaving the parish the Scripture Iteaue Society' continued the society and appointed John. Harwood, who was a stranger to him, district 1 4 "; tor and receiver and distributor of the Prov rT i den Society, and all the moneys p .aced through ror. wood's hands. The Rev. Mr. Williams, in conclusion, said he deeply regretted the painful circumstance; that had happened in his parish, and, although a n _ legally bound to pay the money, he much with his very poor and provident flock, that h would take care to satisfy the whole of the Clain:Wit!' He woulr' pay the w hole of the de ositors out of his own pocket. P Mr. YARDLEY need scarcely say how vouch be r i e l : joiced to hear such a statement from the Rev' ? t a l e tlentan, and how creditable it was to him as s O man and a Christian minister. vt , v.

William Langford, a SOUTHWARK tall powerful -looking rni.drng man, described as a carpenter, was placed at the to ed before Mr. A'Beckett, charged with being conner Poor with two other men (not in custody) in robbing P in , woman named Hunter, a laundress, of b e trusted to her by customers to wash. The complainant stated that on the previous 01,,,t°r.org ing, during the fog that prevailed, she was clotheso, along Trinity-street, carrying a quantity of in a basket, when three men came up , one of wilts was the prisoner, and, snatching the basket 09_ r 0 contents from her, ran away.

(From the London New Price Current, Dec. 24.) SUGAR,—There has been a slight reduction in the value f Colonial, the market having been plentifully supplied, and home dealers operating with reluctance; indeed, supply of East India much exceeded their wants. Foreign is also less in request, and pre vicus rates are generally sustained. In West India operations have been trifling in both grocery and refining qualities, and were only 400 hbds for the three market days, although a reduction of 6d per cwt was submitted to. The value of brown is from 35s 6d to 38s, yellow 38s to 435, and grey 36s 6d to 41s per cwt. REFINED.—To-day large parcels of refined goods were taken by frame dealers, and the market closed with a firm aspect. Brown lumps at 50s 6d per cwt. MAURITIUS.—The sales made have been upon a li mited scale for both grocery and refining purposes ; the stock is on the increase, and previous rates are supported with difficulty. At auction 3,000 bags of the new crop were disposed of ; low to fine yellow at from 37s Gd to 42a ; fair to fine brown 35s to 475, crystalized white 46, 6d to 47s 6d, and yellow do at 41s to 42s per cwt. The supply still consists fur the most part of better deseri ptions. EAST INDlA.—There is still a plentiful supply of Ben gal Sugar at market, and prices have declined 6d per cwt; home dealers operating with caution. Of 6,000 bags at public sale about one-half sold—Benares good to fine white at 44s to 465, low to middling 42s 6d 43s 6.1, crystalized 3ellow 436 6d to 45s ; white 46s to 475, low to fine soft yellow 33s to 40s, fair to fine grocery 39s to 435, good soft brown 32s to 335, and Khaur 30s 6d to 31s. The chief pert again consisted of soft yellow. Madras has been operated in with caution, and sellers are willing to accept rather lower rates • the stock is also 1,400 tons more than last year The vslue soft brown is from 30s 6d to 325, yellow ditto 33s to 365, grocery sorts 37s to 40i, crystalized yellow 39s to 455, and white 46s to 475. Of Penang the stvek continues to get larger, and sales are upon a small scale —white at 40s to 445, soft yellow 346 to 396, and brown 31s to 334 per cwt. FOREIGN.—There has been a more plentiful supply of Fureign Sugar at musket since our last report, and arrivals are also upon a more extended scale.

P. ivatelysonly 4,000 bags low brown Manilla have been disposed of at 31s to 325; a c irgo of yellow Havannah afloat for an outport, the particulars of which have not transpired. At public sale 2,100 bags and 336 baskets Java were nearly all taken in, brown 38s to 39,, yellow 39s to 41s, white 41s 6d to 43s 6d; 1,080 chests yellow Havannah middling to fine 41s Gd to 455; of 730 hhds Porto Rico, an indirect importation, about one-half sold— good brown at 37s to 38s; low to good yellow 39s to 42s 6d, but 230 chests of Bahia were nearly all taken in, brown at 34s to 37s 6d, low and very ord 31s to 33s common mid dling white 39s to 41s per cwt. Although the demand has ruled dull at the foreign markets, still no variation in prices is apparent. and larger parcels are nut offered fur sale.

For other sorts there is a quiet market, with sellers rather under late rates; ord and good ord can be obtained at is Old to is Id, and medium sorts is lid to Is 2d.
