(Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.) • The leading principles of this Office ara—Moderate and equitable Rates or Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements on Thich to proportion rremium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so great, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess than calculation. It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the amount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insti -1 ranee Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap ?roached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted on, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, this bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the tree Premium equitably payable, as security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Aver igo, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, from time te. time, adopt such rates of Premium as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange ments as regards tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have been in force for three years. Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon every description of Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause. Prospectuses, and every information may be obtained, on applies- Lion at the Office, or to any of its Agents. Any Exhibitor desiring to have separate Copies of the List of his own productions can be itipplied at a reasonable cost, by giving early notice to' the Contractors. t National Loan Fund Life Assurance ROCK?. * Equitable Fire . t• Both Offices.

Unreasonable people are complaining grievously of the present state of business; they say they can sell nothing, and get no orders ; others are going on as if trade was at its best, and doing more than their share. Those who are doing nothing, find various causes for their paucity of trade. One says it was the repeal of the corn-laws ; another says it is the Great Exhibition ; a third it is the Popish aggression; a fuurth it is the Kafir war; a fifth that it is the state of France; and so they run the gauntlet through fifty alleged causes, while the right one is kept out of view altogether. Giles Go a-head built twelve houses, from which he was to derive his income, hut being a whole year without letting one house, he considered himself a loser of six hundred pounds. London had overbuilt itself, too many People lived in one house. Everbody took lodgings to save Lutes ; the window duty and twenty other causes passed throughGiles's mind ; but a neighbour took the liberty of calling his attention to the real one—they were ten pounds per annum too much rent. Giles took the hint, thought four hundred and eighty pounds was a better income than nothing, lowered the rent, and let them all inrallately. Besides that, Ise found his four hundred and eighty pounds went quite as far as he once made six hundred go. And the real cause of a large class suffering for want of trade is, that they struggle against the change of system, they will stick for large profits, and the day for large profits is gone by. Since E. MOSES and SON set the example of trading with large capital, and throwing all the advantages of that capital into the hands of the public by adopting small profits, it has opened the eyes of the public to their true interest. Those who attempt to trade uwin the old system gradually lose their customers ; but let any one step into the Establishment of E. MOSES and SON, will they see anything like a paucity of business there ? No. On the con trary, employed, there is an world constantly going immensetrary,husntederkedesf theof fihiatenedtseleatrheinagctiinvetl off, and as rapidly being replaced, and all arising from their being contentwith small profits and turning out first-rate articles forty per cent. less than used to be charged under the old system. It is nei ther the Papal Aggression, nor the repeal of the Corn-laws, nor the Great Exhibition, nor the Kafir war, nor the state of France, that makes business with some people bad. It Is the folly of attempting to keep up the system of large profits. Trade has had a shock, but it was electric, and should have been, and would have been, benefi cial to all alike, had all acted properly; but those only who, at once, like E. MOSES and SON, adopted the system of small profits on good articles, and large returns, reaped the advantage of the change, and the public will stand by them who set the example.

In November last an extraordinary sensation was created in Belgium by the announcement that Count Hippolyte Visart de BocarMe and his wife, both re siding at Bury, in the province of Hainaut, had been arrested on the charge of having murdered, the brother of the latter by means of poison forcibly ad ministered to him after dinner at their chateau on the 20th of that month. The investigations of justice ended in both the accused being committed for trial. Since then the interest felt in the case has risen to the highest pitch in Belgium, and has even extended to France. The reek of the parties, and the very extra ordinary manner in which the murder is alleged to have been committed, continue, in fact, to make the case worthy of admission amongst the most remarkable of the Causes Celebres. The trial commenced before the Court of Assizes of Mons on Tuesday, and was continued on the following day. We have received the following account of these days' proceedings. The Court was crowded to excess, and the excitement caused by the trial amongst all classed of the population was strikingly groat. The Countess de Bocarme was first placed irilAhe dock; she was dressed iu black, and is a handsome woman. Her husband was next placed near her; he is tall, good-looking and of aristocratic bearing. His voice, it was noticed, resembled that of a boy of 15. Both the accused, in answer to the President, stated their names; said their age was 32, and their station in life that of proprietaires. The indictment was then read. It set forth that the principal accused belongs to one of the first families of the province of Hainaut, end that in 1842 he married at Peruwelze Mademoiselle Fougnies, daughter of a retired grocer. This female had a 'brother, named Gustave, of weak health; and from the first the Count, it appeared, had formed the hope of inheriting the for tune to which he was entitled, and consulted a physician as to his chances of living. On the 20th November last, Gustave went to dine with his sister and brother-in law in their château of Bitremont, and after dinner he was found dead in the dining-room. A project had been on foot for his marriage with a Mdlle. de Dudzeele, and after his body was discovered the Countess ordered a domestic to go and inform those two coquines, Madame de Dudzeele and her daughter, that he had died suddenly of apoplexy. But, on examination of the body, contusions and scratches were found on the cheek and nose; and on the cheek, the tongue, in the throat, and the stomach traces of a corrosive liquid were discovered. The Count having been subjected to an examination, it was ascertained that one of his fingers bore the mark of having been bitten, and that his nails had a slight stain of red, as if of blood caused by a scratch on flesh. An analysis of the contents of deceased's stomach proved that he had been poisoned by means of nicotine. It was further ascertained that the Count during six months had spent much time in studying the qualities of this puisov, and that, a few days before the death of Gustave, he had been in possession of two phials of it, which could not afterwards be found. The Countess, on being questioned, formally accused her husband of having caused the death of her brother, and after a while the Count himself admitted having distilled the nicotine. The indictment went on to show that, in marrying Mdlle. Fougnies, the Count had not obtained the fortune he had expected, as he only received with her 2,0001. a-year from her father; his own income was 2,400 f. But, notwith standing their resources were so small, they lived in grand style, and the Count kept a mistress. He bor roe ed about 40,000 f. from his notary, which have not yet been paid. In 1845, the father of his wife died, and lef, her 5,000 f. a-year; but their expenses continued to increase, and they were obliged to make sales of the pro perty from which the wife's lucerne was derived. They, however, still remained considerably in debt, and were re duced to such extremity that the Count was obliged to pledge some of his wife's jewels for 400 f. in the Mont de Pike at Brussele. Their only hope of salvation from ruin was the early death of the brother without heirs, but this was destroyed by his avowed intention of marrying. Tney attempted to prevent the mar riage, and the Countess wrote two letters to her brother, calumniatin g his intend e d w if e . Th e i r efforts, however, failed. It was then that the Count began to study the qualities of poisonous plants, and es pecially of nicotine. He made attempts to produce the latter, but, not having immediately succeeded, sought the advice of a professor of chemistry. After ten days and two nights labour, he, in November last succeeded in making for himself two phials of nicotine. A few days later he, in answer to his wife's questions, admitted that he had been making that poison, and said that he would take care not to fail " to do the business of Gustave." On the 20th Gustave arrived at the château in the morning, and the Countess passed the day with him without informing him of the danger he was in. At dinner she, contrary to her usual custom, sent her eldest daughter and the governess to dine in the latter's room. She also sent away her coach man on some frivolous pretext. She ordered her maid, who was to wait at table, to retire after the second service. This servant, Einkance, having gone at dusk to the dining-room to inquire if lights were required, was answered, " No, no," both by the Countess and her husband. Shortly after another servant heard Gustavo cry fur help from the dining-room, and exclaim, " Oh! pardon, Hippolyte!" Almost at the same moment she saw the Countess leave the dining-room, and close the kitchen door, so as apparently to prevent the cries from being heard. The indictment then dwelt on the fact that as the poison must have been forcibly administered to deceased, it was impossible that it could have been done by only one person. It next asserted that the Count and Countess were the only persons in the dining-room at the time the cries of deceased were heard. It quoted a letter written secretly in the prison on the 12th March last by Bocarre6 to a friend at Paris, in which ho charged his wife with having committed the crime, and then attempting to throw the whole guilt on him. It stated that ho had made the same assertion to the gaoler. The indictment further proceeded to state that after the murder the Countess had carefully caused to be washed some of the clothes of deceased and of her hus band; that she had had his crutches (he was lame) washed, and afterwards burned ; and that she had also burned his waistcoat and cravat. She, moreover, had caused the floor of the dining-room to be carefully washed. The indictment concluded by stating that she had declared that if she had prepared or facilitated the poisoning she had only done so because she had been forced by her husband. The President then proceeded to interrogate Madame BocarnaCe After giving details of the pecuniary situation of her hasblud and herself, from which it appeared that they were greatly embarrassed, she said that they did not live h a ppily together, owing to his licentious habits and his extravagance. lie had occupied himself, in 1850, with the culture of venomous plants, and had made her write for different specimens of them under assumed names. When she had remarked that that was strange, he had struck her, and said that ho did it to get them cheaper. He had made her assist in preparing the nicotine. The President —Did he say what it was for?—Yes, ho said that it was to do the business of Gustave. Did ho afterwards say nothing more?—Yes, he said, " When I shall catch that scoundrel, I will not fail to do for him! " The accused then stated that her husband had tried his poisons on animals, and especially on a cat, which bad died. The President —On the 20th November, the day on which your brother died, did you not inform your husband of his arrival 7—Yes, and he said that he would do his business for him—that it was his Isst day.—(Sensation.) What did you say then ?—I said that it was aboin able—that he cou ld not do such a thin g . sacred " Eh !" he m an- me, " we are unfortunate , and will you make our children poor ?" That was his reply?--Yes sir. Ever since our mar riage he had calculated on inheriting the fortune of my brother, and had consulted physicians relative to the health of Gustave. Had Gustave announced his marriage to you two days before the 9010—Yes, sir. I had at first opposed it on account of his health, but seeing him resolved, I said nothing more. The accused then said that, on the 20th, she had sent the governess to dine in her own room, because she, her husband, and her brother had some business affairs to discuss. Her children had ceased to dine at her table some time before. The coachman had been ordered to go on a message, not at dinner time, but early in the morning. She and her husband had partaken of the same dishes and wines as her brother. The conversation at table was friendly. She had not passed some time before the dinner in conversation with her brother. She had ordered the servant Emerance to retire after the second servico, because business affairs had to be dis cussed. The dinner was over at half -past four. She, her husband, and brother had then conversed by the fireside. The President—When Enskance came to ask if you did not require candles, did you not tell her to go up to the children?—l do not recollect. Did your husband not go out to order a tilbury to be got ready for your brother?—Gustave wished to leave. When your husband returned to the dining-room you were conversing with your brother?—Yee. Did not your husband then rush on him, and knock him down?—Yes, sir; and ran away. I, however, saw my husband take him by the shoulders , and heard the body of Gustave fall on the floor. Describe the position.—My husband took him by the shoulders; that is all I saw. Did not Gustave cry, " Oh, oh! pardon, Hippolyte?"— I was not in the dining-room, but in an adjoining room; I was terrified. I had closed the door, in order not to hear the cries. Hippolyte opened the deer of the dining room; I heard the death-rattle in the throat—at least I fancied so. My husband told me to bring him him some warm water. Ernerance then came down stairs, and I told her to go back to the children. She held one of the children by the hand. I took the warm water to my husband, end then went to fetch some cold water. I did not see him drink. water, which you had askel for, saying that you were thirsty?—Yes. Had you not previously met your husband at the bottom of the staircase, with Emerance, and did he not say—" Gustave is ill! Vinegar! vinegar!"—Yes. Did he speak to you in a low tone of voice?—No. Did he say, in a low tone, " Cry for help!"—lt is pos sible that he did. In answer to other questions, the accused stated what she had done to remove the traces of the nicotine on the clothes and floor. Her husband had confessed to her that he had committed a crime. but suppli cated her not to betray him. He had also said that his only fear of being discovered arose from the scratches he had made on the face of deceased. An to the nicotine, he said that he was perfectly tran quil, as there was no means of discovering its presence. He had wi.hed to show herithe corpse of her brother, but she had refused,notwithstanding his violence. All that she had consented to do was to burn or wash certain things which were stained with the nicotine. Her husband had feared that he would be arrested, and had said to her, " If any one tells you that I have made a confession do not believe it; justice often employs that trick to obtain evidence. I will take, if necessary, two celebrated ad vocates of Paris, and I am sure that nothing can happen to me, as they Can discover nothing, for nicotine leaves no trace behind it." This concluded the interrogatory of the female pri. soner, and.the Court rose. SECOND DAY. The President took the chair at half-past nine, and continued the interrogatory of Mme. de Bocarme. The President—You said yesterday that your husband had told you to look at the victim and see whether the nicotine had run from tho month?—Yes, he did so, but I did not obey him, and he looked at me very savagely. (fil. de Became smiled at this reply.) Did you not send for a medical man after the death of Gustave?—Yes, Sir, I did so by desire of my husband. Was not that done pour joaer la comedie ?—Probably it was. (Madame de Bocartn6 here appeared to be much embarrassed, and rumpled up her pocket handkerchief in great agitation.) Did the doctor remark that there were symptoms of poisoning ?—No, Sir. Did not your husband take soma warm water in order to make him vomit?—Yes, Sir. The President then ordered M. de Bocarme to stand up, when the prisoner said, in reply to questions put to him, that when he married Mlle. Feuguies, he was igno rant that the family had brought about the marriage through ambition. He was to have received 2,0001. a year from his father-in-law, but the first year was not paid. In May, 1850, his pecuniary position was very embarrassed; ho had pledged some diamonds at Brussels for 400 f. He had money due to him to the amount of 104,000 f. He owed 14,0004 to a notary for money bor rowed. The President—Did you not call on an avocet at Brussels in October, 1850, to know whether, having debts to the amount of 300,000 francs, yoa could not by means of a fictitious sale get rid of those liabilities ?—I wished to know whether, having such debts, I could leave my property to my children. The President (to Mine. de Bocarme)—l have put questions to your husband, founded on what you said in your preliminary examination—has he given a true answer?—No, Sir, he has not stated things as they ac tually took place.—(Sensation.)—What I have beforo stated was the truth. To further questions put by the President, M. de Boceria6 stated that he had never coveted the property of any one; he was not at at all tempted by the fortune of Gustavo. He might bo reproached with pro digality but not with avarice. His reason for consulting a medical man as to the probable duration of the life of Gustave, was that he had been requested to do so by an aunt of his brother-in-law. He had never used any violence towards his wife, nor had he ever struck her with his fists. He had had a very angry discussion with her one day, but he had never struck her. (The female prisoner here shed tears.) The President—Did you ever seize your wife by the throat?—No, Sir. Did not ale. Chereguefosse tell you that if you did not change your conduct you would come to the scaf fold?—No, Sir. Did you not, on one occasion, drag your wife along the ground in the garden?—No, Sir; what took place was this. My wife one day spoke to a domestic in the passage, and ordered him to go and polish the floor in her bedroom. I objected to this, and she put herself into a violent passion. In reply to further questions put by the President, he admitted that he had had criminal connexion with a girl named Celestine Legrin, by whom he had a child. He had never compelled his wife to receive this fruit of his illicit connexion at the château. She willingly con sented to do so. The President (to Mme. de Bocarm6)—Were you not compelled to receive this child?—Yes, Sir, he told me that unless I did so he would have a separation. From the further replies of the prisoner, it appeared that he had caused his wife, but without violence, to sign a letter by which she consented to receive the child in question. During this part of the interrogatory, Mine. do Bo carme covered her face with her hand, in order to screen herself from the view of the auditory. The female prisoner, in reply to a further question of the prisoner, declared that she had been compelled to sign the letter. The interrogatory then turned on the chemical studies of M. do Bocarm6. He said that since 1842 he had not occupied himself with chemical experiments, and had got rid of his instruments, but ho had since studied poisonous plants. The President—What was your object for so doing? —I wished to go and rejoin my father in America, to carry on business in such plants. It was for that reason that I put myself in communication with some dealers at Ghent. The President—Did you not cause your wife to write to these dealers, and sign your namo?—Yes; I thought I might do so, as she was my wife. My object in study ing the nicotine was to discover the best quality of to bacco, which was proved by the quantity of nicotine it contained. I thought that study might be useful to my father, who cultivated tobacco in America. The President—ln the division of property which you lately made with your brother you expressed a wish to retain the château of Bitremont—that did not look as if you had any intention of quitting Belgium.—l wished to leave my property here to my wife and children. Did you not purchase, in May, 1850, the chemical works of M. Orfila and M. Reynault?—l did, Sir, in order to study the qualities of poisonous plants. In reply to farther questions from the President, he said that he had entered into correspondence with a cep persmith at Ghent, in order to procure some vessels of which he was in want. Lie had, on that occasion, as sumed the name of Man, under the idea that he might obtain the articles cheaper than if he had given his real name. He had consulted M. Lobens on the manner of extracting poison from plants, and requested him to give him some lessons in chemistry. M. Lobens knew him by the name of Beran, as the coppersmith had introduced him to that gentleman by that name, not knowing him by any other. The President—How much nicotine did you extract from the quantity of tobacco which you purchased? —About seven phials full. For what purpose did you intend that nicotine?—lt was tho result of my experiments. I ask you to what purpose you intended it?—l have already told you, Sir. No. You have not done so. I now ask you whore you put those phials?—l put them by. For what purpose, I again ask, did you intend them? —With a view to the trade in tobacco. In reply to further questions, the prisoner said that he had placed the phials in a cupboard; that he some times carried the key in his pocket, and at other times left it on the mantel-piece of the saloon; that ho was i not aware whether any o ne k new w h ere h e h a d put t h ose phials, but it was possible they might, and that he had emptied them when the apparatus was cleaned. The President here observed, that the prisoner, on his preliminary examination before the examining ma gistrate, had spoken of only three phials, whereas he now mentioned seven. The President—You told your servants, while you were extracting this nicotine, that you were making Eau de Cologne, and charged them not to speak of it, as you might be fined for di s tilli ng w ithout having a patente. Did you not also tell your wife that you wished to got rid of Gustave Fougnies?—lt is an infamous calumny. I cannot conceive how my wife can maintain such an as sertion. If I had wished to poison her brother, should I have said so much to her who loved him? You did not then like him?—l felt an indifference towards him. The interrogatory now turned on the fact of the pri soner having tried the effect of the nicotine on one or more cats, and, in reply to a question of the President, the prisoner said that he had poisoned a cat belonging to the chateau, brought and tohim another forh t whichatpurpose, r po he s efi, and rstsaid his wif e had afterwards that she had employed a woman i n the neighbourhood to get it. President—DidGhent? —yes,b y o o t u h b p oi d o i r so e n an a d ny af c te a r t . before you went h e t oG h Pen On Mdme. de Bocarmi be in g q uestioned as to whe ther sho had ever taken a cat to her husband, or ordered one to be procured for him, she positively de nied it. The sitting was hero suspended for a short time. On its being resumed, The President, addressing the male prisoner, said—lt is evident that a strong feeling of hatred was felt by you against your brother-in-law; a letter written by your mother proves this fact. She says, " I deeply regret the discussions which take place between you, your wife, and Ilippolyte; there is nothing in the world so deplorable as dissensions and discussions between bro thers and sisters." The prioner—That was a recommendation given by my mother to Gustave ; but there were never any dis cussions. The President—You know that your wife accuses you. How can you account for the accusations which she brings against you?—My wife fears to speak the truth from a dread of being compromised; she does not wish it to bi knoan haw her brother died. But how can you suppose it possible for your wife to have a heart barbarous and inhuman enough to accuse [PRICE SD. you of such a crime? What interest can the mother of your children have in so doing?—l do not know why my wife accuses me. If she knew you to be innocent her accusing you would only aggravate her own position.—lt is a system of defence which she adopts. You have said that your wife dreads the truth; what do you mean by that remark?—She knows what I mean. Do you know who was the author of the crime?—Yes, Sir, I do (great sensation). Who was it?--It was my wife (general movement in the court); but she is innocent, she did not know what she was doing. With what was Gustave poisoned?—With nicotine. Did you not throw Guitave on the ground?—l did not. There was a dispute about a trust deed between Gustave and me. I will explain all the circumstances. I put my hand on the mouth of Gustave in order to pre vent his crying out, and in order to avoid a scandals. Was it not more probable that you put the* poison into his mouth when you placed your hand on it?—My wife poisoned us without knowing it; the bottle and the glasses were brought by her; she thought that she was giving us wine. The bottle which 'contained the nicotine was therefore in the dining-room? The victim cried out, " Pardon, Ilippolyte." Your wife and three of the servants heard it. Your wife left the room in a few minutes after, at the moment when Gustave was expiring. Will ycru ex plain yourKelf on these points? —As I took some of the same drink I fell almost senseless on the floor, and I heard the rattle of a person about to expire. But you do not tell us what was the reason of Gustave settus pinifigedoubty the and Gustave had drunk, he exclaimed, " Sacri ?I dr d i o nk n . ot l k t n h o in w l . l, t h h o e w c e a ve u r s , G. l r h eci a o v l i l n e g ct b th ee a n t after my wire had poured us out the glasses at the side board,nose! Hippolyte, help me!" What did your wife think she had given you?—Wine —white wine. But nicotine is of a brown colour ?—Not quite; and, moreover, there are some white wines that are very dark. Is there not a smell with nicotine which might have been discovered when it was held to the nose?—She did not smell to it. Doors open at Half-past Eight o'clock—Dancing to commence al Niue and terminate at Half-past Eleven o'clock precisely. .... .... Hot" is it that your wife does not give the same ac count of things as you do?—These circumstances are so extraordinary that I have always thought that no one would believe what was said.

Did you not say in your room that you was determined to get rid of Gustave?—l never said that. My wife dares not speak the truth; she is afraid. Did not your wife leave the room at the moment when Gustave uttered the cry ?—I heard not nothing but the death-rattle; I saw nothing around me; I was lying on the floor. Was Gustave dead when you left the dining•room?— I say. A glass of warm water was brought me, in order to neutralise tho effect of what I had drunk. My wifo is wrong in adopting the line of defence she has done, and in not relating things as they really took place. The President (to Mme. do Bocarra6)—Prisoner, what have you to say to what has been just stated ?—There is not a word of truth in it.

That is a singular way of rendering assistance. You then wished that the unfortunate man should die with out receiving any help?—l wished to avoid the scandals of such an affair.—(Sensation.) In what part of the room did Gustave fall?—I am not quite certain, but I think it was between the door and the etagire... The President—We shall return again to these facts, and now proceed to others. Did you not say on the 23d February, to the witness Vanderskreuz, in the prison at Tourney, that you could speak of your wife without accusing her; that you threw Gustave on the ground to give him poison, that you had given it to him twice, and that the second time he fell on you?—He is mistaken; he misrepresents our conversation, without wishing to do so. The President then reminded the prisoner of a letter which he had written to a M. Crans, residing at No. 5, Rue St. Hyacinthe, at Paris, and in which he gave that gen tleman some commissions to execute for him. That let ter contained a note, clandestinely slipped into it, in which the prisoner begged that M. Berryer should not be engaged to plead for his wife. He said that the Countess, after having poisoned her brother, threw all the blame on him. It would appear from this note, added the President, that your wile committed the crime intention ally, while you just now said the contrary.—The circum stances of the case are so extraordinary, that it is perhaps impossible that the truth can be known. Your note adds, that the accusation of your wife is the consequence of the moral constraint in which she finds herself; what do you mean by this moral constraint? The whole contents, in fact, of your note represent the fact of the 20th November as a crime. The clothes which the deceased wore on the day when the crime was committed were here shown to the priso ner, when he explained that a great quantity of vinegar had been used to get out the stains of the nicotine; and vinegar had been also used to prevent the effects of the poison. The President—But if you knew that Gustave was dead, the spplication of your vinegar was useless. You uttered cries when your servants approached, and you deplored the death of Gustave when, a few minutes before, you had dismissed Emerance in ill humour be cause she brought lights. Were not those lamenta tions feigned, particularly when it is known on what hostile terms you and Gustave were? The prisoner mad. no reply. The President—lt was probably for the purpose of playing la comedie, as your wife yesterday said. After some few other questions of no particular inte rest, the Court adjourneJ to the next day. Did you not than wash your hands with some black soap?—No, sir, it was a later period I did so. In what state was your husband?—llis hair was in disorder, and he was greatly agitated. Did you ask hioa the cause _of his agitation?—Yes, and he did not reply, but he made a siugular gesture; his clothes smelt strongly.

Part of the flooring of the dining-room was here submitted to the witness, who declared that he re cognised it as the spots which were stained, and which he had himself marked with red; they had been afterwards subjected to chemical analysis, and the presence of nicotine proved. When he first saw the boards of the dining-room, now in court, they smelt strongly cf vinegar. The two prisorlfers were per. fectly calm when ho arrived, but the male prisoner be came confused afterwards, end did not account satisfac torily for the death of his brother-in-law. During the investigation, the count wrote a note, which the wit ness handed up to the President, and which was conceived nearly in these terms My dear wife, ask the examining magistrate to allow you to send me news of your health. flow do yo u occupy yourself ?

It is that which marks cut my route—let it do so for yours also. Let us take the same path, and we shall find ourselves safe and sound." The President asked the examining magistrate what the verse referred to was ?—The magistrate replied that it was to the effect that "every kingdom divided against itself will soon perish, and that every house divided will soon fall down." —The magistrate then went on to say that in the confrontation which took place between the accused during the examination Madame de Bocarm6 seemed to him to speak the truth when she declared herself innocent of the crime. Her husband replied, whenever he was told that she accused him " Well! let her accuse me, but let her explain, if she can, to justice how the thing took place." Questioned by the advocates of the female prisoner as to her morality, the examining magistrate declared that he had made investigations respecting her past char acter, and believed it to be irreproachable. When she began to accuse her husband, he said she wept a great deal, a n d exclaimed, " What a misfortune that I cannot defend myself without accusing my husband!" On the other hand, M. do Bocarme said, " I cannot defend myself without compromising my wife!" This evidence closed the sitting. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, June 3.

Mr. Sewell appeared for the assignees, and Mr. Law rence supported the bankrupt, who passed without op position, and in consequence of the services rendered by the bankrupt in realizing the estate, and with the con sent of the assignees, his Honour ordered 25/. to be paid to him out of the estate, as a remuneration. (Before Mr. Commissioner HOLROTD.) IN RE TREGO. The bankrupt, described, as William Trego, of Cole man -street, in the city of London, builder, came up for his last examination, but in consequence of a large dis crepancy in the accounts it was again adjourned. IN RE PEACOCK. The bankrupt, Richard Peacock, of No. 1, Ladbroke grove, in the county of Middlesex, plumber and glazier, came up on the question of certificate. Mr. Morgan and Mr. Gant supported; and Mr. Link later on behalf of the ussigneea and Mr. Williams, a creditor for 7001., opposed. Joseph Miller, examined by Mr. LremeaTzn—Lived five minutes' walk from the bankrupt's premises. Had worked for him up to the time of the bankruptcy.

A portion of the bankrupt's goods were bought by bankr u pt s brother. By Mr. MORGAN—Knew Richard Jones; had said no thing to him in connexion with the bankruptcy. Joseph Emery, examined by Mr. LINKLATER—WIN a joiner, and had been in the employ of the bankrupt. Did not recollect the removal of any goods. Did not send a horse and cart for that purpose. Never had directions from the bankrupt to send one. Knew nothing about the removal of some varnish, oils, &c. By Mr. MOR G A N —Al wa y s heard that the bankrupt was an honest hard-working man, and that was his re putation in the neighbourhood. Mr. LINKLATER, in addressing the Court, said that upon the last examination the assignees had failed to establish a direct removal of the goods, he therefore must apply himself to the general circumstances of the case. Mr. Williams had more right to complain than the assignees as to the general conduct of the bankrupt, as the whole of his debt (7000 was for money lent at a moderate rate of interest, and he thought the bankrupt was carrying on a prosperous business. The bankrupt, however, had always been trading with a load upon his shoulders, and a large deficiency was accounted for by sundry estimated expenses. His books were badl y y kept, and th ere h ad been a deal of guess-work i. 31 01. ntn o 2 accounts. 500/. o f hi s expenses were vouc h e d, an was guessed a t.

Mr. MORGAN, for the bankrupt, sa id that with regard to the bill transaction, ho admitted h is client had done wrong, but it was more from stupidity than knavery, and that he had no corrupt or fraudulent mo tive. With respect also t o the boo k-keeping, that was not very correct, but was as good as that of perEKIES genera lly in the same sphere of life as the bankrupt. The'dance as to removal of goods had utterly failed. A v want e of prudence had characterized the whole of the bankrupt's proceedings, but nothing worse; he e and dd as rehno dered every assistance to the official assignee, had a family of five children to supp or t, an d as no case of fraud bad been established against him, he prayed the Court to grant a certifiea.te. His IloNorn, in disposing of the case, said that with respect to the removal of property, that charge had failed, and he thought the failure more complete than on a former occasion. As regarded the general features of the case, there were two grounds upon which the Ceara was called upon to suspend the bankrupt's certificate. In alluding to the bill transaction it appeared that the bankrupt gave a bill to Mr. Chapman after the bank ruptcy, and then it was ante-dated; thus an endeavour was made to impose upon the Court, and to make that appear truth which was untruth. This bill was given in o November, and ante-dated in March, as the showed. lie should in consequence feel bound tias Then,aa-- pend the certificate for a considerable peti°d* tha banks pt respect to the general trading, if the b on well, "b he not been imprudent he must have gone had been going on borrowing money withoutonsequence was anything to pay the interest with; the ' lv having there was 3171. to pay for interest and 1 charges, and. nothing to meet it.

The President took the chair at 10 o'clock, and the prisoners were introduced. The interrogatory of IL de Bocarme was continued, The President—Your wire has said that you wiped up tho floor with two handkerchiefs; that you gave the poison, and the floor had been scraped; by whom was thstclone?—l do not know. Did you not burn ono of your handkerchiefs?—l did not. Did your wife burn one?—l am not aware that she did. The President—M. Stors in - his report says, that the poison was poured into the mouth of the victim while be was lying on the ground, and this report agrees with the communication which you made in the prison at Tournay. What have you to say to this?—l could not have made the remarks attributed to me; my wife being innocent, I could not have said that she had poured the poison into her brother's mouth. I have always declared that my wife was innocent. But did you not say that it was your wife who had poured out the poison ?—Yes, I said that, but nothing else. But you contradict yourself. You maintain that your wife is innocent, and you agree that she twice poured out the poison.—l have always said that my wife poured out the poison without knowing it. The keeper of the prison to whom you made revela tions stated in your presence, when you were confronted with him, that you had told him that your wife had poured the poison into the mouth of the victim?—lf I told him so I stated what was not true.—(Agitation.) Why then did you not explain yourself better?—l said that I should wait to explain myself before the court of justice, because I felt indignant at seeing that I was made to talk while some one was at the same time placed to listen to what I said. Did you not say to the same gaoler that you had tak en warm water after having swallowed the poison in order reported. or I ted. not did to make you vomit; and did you not make a similar rem ark to the brigadier of gendarmery?— say so; my remarks have been incorrectly Did you not speak to these persons of the bottle and the two glasses which were mentioned for the first time yesterday ?—I did not. You wrote to your wife when in the prison at Tournay, and after inquiring after her health, and whether she had any money, you add the wo r d s : ~ me any more,' and which words you signedDo not reply to with a cross. Had you written to her before?—No, Sir; and I did not ask for any answer. That, however, is not what you said in your letter. What did you mean by signing with a cross ?—I do not exactly know; perhaps it was only meant to express the sad situation in which we were placed. The President (to tho female prisoner)—Has your husband written to you since you were in the prison at Tourney Sir. Will you explain how you passed the day of the 20th N . ovember?—lt wa s a b ou t seve n o'clock that m y hus band carne to announce to me the arrival of Gustave. I got up at nine o'clock. We breakfasted at ten, and we afterwards conversed together. When did you again see Gustave? —At dinner. How do you explain the absence of your servants and your children?—My children were usually in the room of their governess. The male prisoner, rising quickly, here said—My w if e was in the habit of sending away the servants when any persons dined with us, in order to allow a greater free dom of conversation. The President —You are not under interrogation, Lydie Fougnies ; state why Emerance was sent to her room?—She was in the habit of going there. When she came to light the lamps, did you not say later, later? — W e did not usuall y li g h t the lamps until it was altogether dark. Your husband accuses you of. .having poured the po i s on into Gustave's mouth. — (M. do 13ocarm6 here rose to speak.) Sit down and be silent.

Somerville (1842), as generally reported, has been appointed an inspecting commander of the Coast Guard. He entered the navy in 1824, passed his examination in 1830, and obtained his first commission in 1831. As a lieutenant he served in the Wellesley, 72, Cornwallis, 72; in the transport service; then in the Belleisle, 72, and Collingwood, 80. He served in the Chinese hostilities, and was honourably mentioned in Lord Gough's dispatches. Commodore Lord John Hay, C. 8., struck his flag on board the St. George, 120, in Ilaceoaze, on Monday evening, at sunset, and proceeded on leave of absence for a few days. During his absence the duty of the dock yard will be performed by Mr. Mills. master-attendant, and that of the ordinary by Captain Joseph Nies, of the St. George. Tiger, a new steamer of 400-horse power, navigated to Portsmouth from Woolwich some time ago, and now lying in the old basin, got up her steam yester day to try her engines. She is a fine capacious ves sel, but, as we have before steted, has the Sidon's propensity to list over ; indeed, a short time after her arrival, the coal being:unequally divided in her bunkers, there was said to be much danger at one time of her falling right over. In consequence of this she has re ceived extensive alterations, her coal-bunkers, which came up on each side to the under part of her weather deck, have been lowered, and her main-desk made flush fore and aft ; two port holes have been cut about the midship pert oil her main -deck, and two heavy guns will be removed to these ports from her weather-deck, whereby her top weight will be decreased. She is rigged and will be tried at Spithead shortly. The American frigate, St. Lawrence, Commodore Sands, was towed out of Southampton waters early yes terday morning, by the Echo. When off the Kicker point a westerly breeze sprung up, the steamer was cast off, and the frigate made sail. In passing through Spit head anchorage the St. Lawrence saluted the flag of Admiral Sir Bladen Capel, K.C.8., with thirteen guns, which the Victory returned with a similar number. She proceeds to Cherbourg. The Turkish war -steamer the Feizi Baari, with Ad miral Mustafas' flag flying from her main, arrived yes terday morning, from Woolwich, and anchored near the other Turkish vessels at Spithead. The squadron will now proceed on their voyage home to Constantinople. "k•The anchor-hoy built for Bermuda, and to be called the Devonport, was launched from the raasthouse-slip at Devonport, yesterday morning, and will be ready for sea about the middle of the present month.
