EGYPT MINING INTELLIGENCE. (Frog) tho Mining Journal )_ The busines; of the week has been satisfactory; but not on :;o extendc:: a scale us usual. In dividend osises there is no particular change to notice; and in specula live one attention is di; erred from the generally estab lished section of them to several new projects on a rather extensive scale of capital—the shares in which have been subscribed for with avidity at liherr.l pre miums. To this end, the assistance of the stock Ex change has been sought, and is made available to some extent. We augur well for the future welfare of mining from the power of capital alone; but, for the interest of adventurers, it is essential that it should be judiciously and economically applied. In the Metal Market, a good steady demand exists for Copper, and a fair amount of business is doing. The demand for English refined Tin continues extensive, while for Foreign prices are firm for any quantity; and at a shade under our quotations corviderable sales could be effected; several large lots have been cleared this day for home consumption.—Lead is very active, with an upward tendency; soma heavy orders are being exe cuted for New York.—Tin Plates and Yellow Metal Sheathing are in request. Among the arrivals at Swansea during the week have been 85 tons of copper ore, from Algiers; 21 tons of copper regains, 111 tons of c.)pper ore, 21 tons of anti mony, and 6 cases of argentiierous copper, from Mar seilles. Great Beam sold 7 parcels of black tin at from 401. to 62/. par ton. East Crowndale sold 10 tons of black tin at 48/. 7s. 6d. and 2 tons at 401. 12s. 6d. per tou. Driggith Mine cold 16 tons of lead ore at 121. 12s. Gd. per te e , Allt-y-Crib sold 25 tons of silver-lead ore, at 12/ Is. G 3. per ton. Wheel Golden sold 72 tons of silrer-lead ore, at 131. 10e. 6d. par ton, to Sims, Willyams, and Co. ; the lowest bid was 11/., by T. Somers. South Tamar sold 90 tons of silver-lead ores, at 16/. 133. per ton. East Wheal RO3O sold 36 tons lead ore, at 14/. 45., and 9 tens at 1 0 /. 125., to Sims, Willyams, and Co.; and 13 tons at 12/. 13s. 6d., to T. Somers, Esq. The ticketings for 100 tons of Newtonard's (Isle of Mao) lead ore varied from 101. to 10/. 17s. per ton. Such Tolgus sampling for Feb. was 225 tons; the es timated discoveries in the month were 450 tons. From Bedford United, December ores were weighed at Morwelham-139i tons, and sampled January ores, computed 141 tons. The Lisburne Mines' report is very favourable, the numerous levels continuing to lay open good ore ground in the mines of Logylas, Frongocb, and Graigoch. The computed produce last month was 281 tons, and estimated for this month 283 tons of lead ore. - At Mineral Court, they have a good lode in the 40 end east, and a large and fair lod e o f goo d t i nwork in the 40 fm. west. They have about 300/. worth of tin for sale. At North Pool meeting, at Illegal' on Tuesday, the accounts showed-By 1,138 tons 15 cwts. copper ore sold, Oct. 31 and December 5 (leas 145th dues, 239/.

The Divan of Constantinople will give up none of its pretensions; it still claims the reduction of the Egyptian army, the repeal of the measures for providing for fresh armaments, and the introduction into the Egyptian Government of some of the liberal reforms which have distinguished the administration of Reschid Pacha. On the other hand, the Viceroy Abbas Pacha resists, and latterly he has called to him the Charges d'Affaires of the powers which guaran teed the treaties of 1840, to solicit the intervention of their Governments in his favour, and in the in terest of the treaties on which he pretends to found, his right of resistance even by force of arms. Inde pendently of his quarrel with the Divan of Constanti nople, Abbas Pacha appears to be entering on one also with the Consul-General of France, in conse quence of the rigour with which he dismisses all the Frenchmen who were formerly employed` in the pub!ic service, and that frE quently in the face of positive contracts and engagements. Those whose term of service had finished have no complaint to make, but those who had entered into contracts w ith the Egyptian Government have applied to the French Consul, and demand at least an indemnity, which the Ministers of Abbas Pacha refuse to grant. Such is the state of affairs ; it has lately been becoming much worse, but we cannot believe but that it will be settled by amicable means." THE ARMY AND NAVY. (From the United Service Gazette.) REINFORCEMENTS FOR THE CAPE.—We are enabled to state that the most important conferences took place yesterday between Lord Fitzroy Somerset and the officers at the Horse Guards, and with the Lords of the .Admiralty, with reference to the st e am force at present available for conveying at a moment's notice any amount of troops to the Cape to reinforce the army o f Si r Harry Smith. The interviews were most satisfactory, and both departments feel perfectly confident of their ability to meet every emergency. THE STANDARD FOR CAVALRY REGIMENTS.—We understand there is no foundation for the rumour that the 6th Dragoon Guards is to recruit under its stand ard, nor any other cavalry regiment; and no recruit is to be enlisted for heavy cavalry unless he is full 5 feet 8 inches; indeed, it is said to be in contemplation to raise the standard one inch, it being the general opinion of cavalry officers that the height of the soldier has been too much reduced. THE COATS OF THE HOUSEHOLD BRIGADE OF CA VALRY.—It is rumoured that the cut of the coat of the regiments of Life Guards and Blues is about to be al tered to the long-skirted pattern of former days. Wo therefore trust that this alteration will be the means of inducing the authorities at the Horse Guards to give some consideration to the tailless liners, and cause the obnoxious shell jacket to be entirely discon tinued. CAVALRY IN IRELAND.—It is expected that the ex change of quarters of the regiments of cavalry stationed in Ireland, will take place in April, as follows: -Ist Dragoon Guards, from Dublin to Newbridge; 4th ditto, on landing from England, will proceed to Dundalk; sth ditto, from Longford to Dublin; 6th ditto, from Cahir to Ballincollig ; 7th ditto, from Newbridge to Dublin ; and the 7th Hussars from Ballincollig to Dublin. HONG-KONG.—Wo understand that the authorities have at last found it necessary to do something at Hong- Kong for the preservation of the soldiers' health, and that the Board of Ordnance intend extending the drain ing and sewer from the Murray-barracks, at that station, into the sea. This measure should have been carried out long since, and probably many valuable lives might have been saved in consequence. Weteo ECONOM Y.—Lieutenant-Colonel Tuilcch, Mili tary Superintendent cf Pensioners, has had his salary increased to 1,0001. per annum. COLONEL WETHERALL, C. 8., AND K.H.--The Deputy Adjutant-General, by the direction of Sir George Grey, proceeded, on the evening of the 4th instant, to the scene of the seamen's disturbances in the North. MEDICAL DEPARTMENT.—Staff Surgeon Burrell, M.D., having been ordered to Malta, has been relieved in medical charge of the London district by Staff Sur geon Robertson, M.D. THREATENED HOSTILITIES AT BAHIA.—A fortnight since we reported the arrival of the Cormorant, 6, steam-sloop, Captain Schomberg, and the Sharp shooter, 8, scree-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Bailey, at Bahia on a cruise. It now turns out that their pre sence in that quarter was on amount of information re ceived by the Commander-in-Chief, that some secret slave dealing was carrying on there with the connivance of the authorities, and that in consequence Captain Schomberg had demanded that these suspicious Portuguese vessels should be given up to him. The late commercial accounts state that the Governor had refused, and Captain Schomberg was determined to hive them at any cost, and was preparing for a conflict. Two Brazilian schooners had arrived to support the Governor, and the gallant Captain expected some assistance from the Admiral. Nothing official has been received on this subject beyond the fact that the Admiral had dispatched his flag ship on the 14th of Jaeuery, wi:h sealed orders, from Rio, supposed for Bahia. The upshot is anxiously looked ior. There is no doubt that the British squadron will have the Portuguese slave ship. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY _EVENING, MARCH to, 1851. At the Esgair Lloe meeting, on the 27th Feb., a letter having been read from Mr. W. C. Venning, solicitor, as to releasing the mine by the present mortgagees and parties interested upon payment of 6001., and the purser having stated that he had made the necessary arrange ments for completing the lease of the sett, in accordance with the resolution of the 23d December, a call of 10s. per share was made. A letter was reed from Messrs. Charles Chippendale and George Smith, resigning their duties as members of the committee. At the Heignston Down Consols meeting, on the 25th Feb., the accounts were examined and passed, showing-Balance in hand from last account, 132/. 6s. 4d.; received on calls, 420/. 10s.--5a552/. 16s. 4d.-Labour cost, Dec., 2821. 18. 9d.; ditto on account, Jan., 104/. 6s. Bd.; lord's dues, 19/. 12s. 7d.; leaving in hand, 1461. 1 5s. 4d.; to which a dd un p a id cals, 329/. 10s., makes the amount of assets 4761. ss. 4d. The balance of cost for Jan. is 1561. 7s. 6d.; estimated cost for Feb., 270/.; ditto March, 2701.; office expenses, 25/.; showing a balance of payments over receipts, to 31st March next, of 245/. 2s. 2d. A list of parties in arrears of calls was presented, when a special meeting was fixed for 29th April next, for the purpose of forfeiting all shares on which the call due Jan. 18 should not then be paid. A call of 2s. 6d. per share was made. At the Ding Dong meeting, on Tuesday, the accounts for three months, ending 31st of Dec., showed-Balance to end of Sept., 355/. 75. 6d.; tin sold, 1,5301. 10s. 6d.; sundries, 11. 2s. 6d. - - - s- - 1,893/ Os. 6d. Mine cost, 1,384/. ss. 11d.; merchants' bills, 429/. 2s. 9d.; leaving balance in favour of adventurers, 791. l le. 10d. At the Chyprase Consols monthly meeting, at Bir mingham on Tuesday the report of Captain James Michell was considered highly satisfactory. All the accounts which had been examined were ordered to be paid, and one of the committee appointed to visit the mine, relative to the erection of the steam-engine, now in progress. A call of 21. ss. per share was made. At a meeting of the Finance Committee of Lamherooe Wheal Maria, on Tuesday, a resolution was unanimously adopted that a sum not exceeding 2001. should be devoted to the erection of kilns, for the purpose of burning the tin ores, and also for erecting a wheel and stamps for dressing the same; the whole to be done with the least possible delay, under the direction of Mr. Murray. At the meeting of adventurers in the United Mines (Tavistock), on tho 27th February, a joint report was read from Capts. R. Dunstan (West Caradon). J. Lean (Wheal Franco), S. Seccombe (Phoenix Mines), and R. Williams (East Crowndale), and one also from Capt. Carpenter (late manager of Wheal Andertos). Also a communication from seven London share holders, requesting an increase in the number of trustees; that every alternate meeting be held in London; and that they be furnished with a list of share holders, the number or shares hold by each, and the price paid for the same. A call of 10s. per share was made, and it was unanimously resolved that the representations made in the prospectus were fully borne out by the re ports read; that Messrs. J. E. Mare and J. Pedler, with the purser, visit the mine, consider the recommendations in the report, estimate the expense, and give their opi nion thereon at a meeting to be called for the purpose. Captain Carpenter baying offered occasionally to inspect and report on the mine, the meeting expressed their obli gation, considering such attention would be particularly advantageous. It was also resolved to inform the London shareholders that two trustees only were appointed, to avoid expense, and that the majority of the shares being held in the vicinity of the mine, it was inexpedient un alterably to fix the alternate meetings in London, but that every information should be forwarded ; that a list of the shareholders, with the number of shares, be forwarded as required, but that the other information sought could not be given. Captain Carpenter's report entered at considerable length into the prospects of the mines (Wheal Anderton and Ash Consolidated), which were favourable, the most advi s abl e met h o d s f or future operations, an d his views and recommendations generally were borne out by the joint report above-men tioned. At the Lelant Consols meeting, hell on Saturday, the accounts were examined and passed, showing balance last account, 5361. 13s. 9d.; labour cost for October, No vember, and December, 8261. 14s. 4d.; merchants' bills, 358/. 14s. Id.; cost of engine, 5371...2,259/. 2s. 2J. By 1,0244; tin sold, 513/. 11a. 6d.; stamping 15/. 35.. leaving balance against the mine, 706/. 78.8 d. The cash account with the purser showed a balance due to him of 4421. 3s. ld., and there being no regular banking ac• count, it was resolved that he bo authorised to draw on Messrs. Bolitho and Co. to the extent of 6001., on ac count of adventurers. Captain Williams' salary was increased to 71. 7s. per month, and a call of 4/. per share was made. A report from the agent was read, which was satisfactory. At the two-monthly meetings of adventurers in Llwynmalees Mine, on Tuesday, the accounts were exa mined and passed, showing a balance against the adven turers of 1741.; and, in order more fully to develope the resources of the mine. it was considered requisite to make a call. A vote of thanks was unanimously passed to Captain Henry Francis (who was present), for his past services, as well as for his able and lucid statement of the present position and future prospects of the mine. At the Trewalder adjourned meeting at Exeter, on Wednesday, a report from Mr. Evan Hopkins was read, and the same being of a discouraging character as to the further prosecution of the mine, it was resolved that the resident agent suspend all further operations, excapt such as shall be necessary to realise, as soon as possible, to the best advantage, the assets of the mine. That the mine be abandoned, subject to confirmation at a meeting to be held in Exeter on the 15th inst., of which the purser is to give immediate notice, and that he proceed to adjust all outstanding claims. Some considerable transactions have taken place in Foreign Shares. RACING FIXT JRES FOR 1851. CH. Doncaster Spring Warwick Spring Kipling Coates AP.

The sun was up and shining merrily when the butchers and I, announcing our departure with an engine -shriek to sleepy Paris, rattled away from the Cattle Market. Across the country, over the Seine, among a forest of scrubby trees—the hoar frost lying cold in shady places, and glittering in the light—and here we are at Poissy ! Out leap the butchers who have been chatter ing all the way like madmen, and off they struggle for the Cattle Market (still chattering, of course, incessantly), in hats and caps of all shapes, in coats and blouses, in calf-skins, cow-skins, horse-skins, furs, shaggy mantles, hairy coats, sacking, baize, oil-skin, anything you please that will keep a man and a but cher warm, upon a frosty morning.

I know your nar row, straggling, winding streets, with a kennel in the midst, and lamps slung across. I know your picturesque street-corners, winding up-hill heaven knows why or where!

I know your sparkling town-fountain, too, ray Poissy, and am glad to see it near a cattle-market, gushing so freshly, under the auspices of a gallsnt lit VeSublimsted Frenchman wrought in metal, perched upon the top.

The proceedings in this extraordinary case were re sumed this morning at eight o'clock, at which hour iCe Lord Chief Justice Campbell took his sea: on the bench. The prisoner was then placed in the dock. He ap peared very downcast throughout the day, and sat with his head buried in his chest, apparently absorbed in deep bought. yi Mr. E. James, Q.C., and Mr. Rodwell again attended as counsel for the Crown; and Mr. Cl a rkso n , M r . Bod kin, and Mr. Hawkins for the prisoner. Mr. CLARKSON then proceeded to address the jury fur the defence. Having expre,:sed the deep anxiety he felt , 14 upon the occasion, and entreated the rto dismiss kre b judiee o which r thimoatthis description,almost, he 3 1 f s r a o id m , naturally iheir mind b s aeiithe prejudice which must almost, he '4 said, naturally be created by a case 3 m b h e e e e d p n i r c a o a c d l e d t e u e d e s e e t d i d m f t o o t y c t:h m e h m p e e r o n e s t il e t e u r u o p t a i t o n u n d t . r n yr c e e tgo w arl h od i o c tk h o a h tth a e d t t u ft '. he th eW e vi j id. very carefully ; and he said that, although no one could doubt the great experience and the extent of scientific ' l4 knowledge possessed by Dr. Taylor, still a good deal l a of his evidence was purely theoretical, and it was '34 possible that he might be mistaken, and therefore he said, evidence of that description ought not to have such weight with a jury as testimony of a positive character. He called their attention to a case of poisoning disposed 1 34 of at the Central Criminal Court, in which upon the .0d medical evidence as to how long before the death arsenic 12 had been administered, that question was left to the 1 % jury, and they returned a verdict of guilty; but it was afterwards discovered that the medical gentleman, al though a man of great experience and knowledge of his profession, was certainly mistaken, and the woman was not convicted; and he urged upon the jury the possibi lity that the medieal witnesses were mistaken in the pre sent instance. There had been a most excessive degree - of zeal imported into the case, and the police-officers had ice, evidently don e a ll th e y cou ld to h unt up evidence against the prisoner. A most aggravated and dreadful crime was suggested to have been committed, and of course he , could not compl a i n t h a t a ll proper endeavours should be ; 71 ' made to detect the guilty party, if guilt really existed, but at the same time a prisoner ought to be dealt with fairly, and no evidence ought to be made use of but that '34 which was legitimate and legal. The Learned Counsel then commented at considerable length upon the evidence of Inspector Coulson, and p irticularly upon the fact of his having sworn originally that he had carefully com pared the piece of rope found in the prisoner's box with that which was round the neck of the deceased, and that they entirely corresponded. He said that this statement turned out to be entirely false, and that it was perfectly clear that if the two pieces of rope had been examined, I it must have been seen immediately that they did not cor respond, because they were twisted different ways, and 34 yet, if it had happened that Coulson had died between the first and second examination, his deposition would • have gone to the jury as a fact that the two pieces of ; rope corresponded, and the life of the prisoner might have been sacrificed upon evidence which was not true. With regard to the evidence of the constable Lerman, Ice. and the conv ersat i on h e was represented to have had with the prisoner, be said it appeared to him rather fa - vourable to the prisoner than otherwise; for if he had really been the man who committed the dreadful crime lt6 there could have been no necessity for his inquiring how ; many times the rope was round her neck; and the ob servation that he afterwards made, " Well, I don't care, I did not do it," would seem to imply merely, that if a crime had been committed, he was not the guilty party, and nothing more. As to the letter regarding the child, it seemed to him that if it was to have any effect at all it was in favour of the prisoner. It was suggested that his object in destroying this poor girl was to re lieve himself from the inconvenience of her being in the family way, but if he really believed that this letter would exonerate him from all liability, and the evidence went to show that this was the case, then there was an entire absence of motive far the commission of the crime. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to observe upon the et possibility of the deceased having destroyed herself, and while he admitted the extraordinary character of some of the circumstances, he contended that it was impossible for the jury to come to a positive conclusion upon their oaths that she did not commit suicide; and he said he should call medical witnesses, whose evidence he hoped would influence the jury, and induce them to be of opinion that, at all events, there was a doubt upon the subject, and that the prisoner ought to , fruive the benefit of that doubt. He should also, he believed, be able to show them, by positive testimony, how the prisoner employed his time on the night in question a'ter he had had his tea at his own house, and he should satisfy them that until past nine o'clock on that night the prisoner could not have committed the murder, if murder there wag, and if he did this he was certain the jury would not come to the con clusion that the murder was committed after that hour, in the absence of all evidence on the part of the prose cution to show how the deceased passed her time in the interval between leaving her mother's cottage and the period in question. The Learned Counsel concluded a very eloquent and able address by stating that he should call before the jury the witnesses for the prisoner, and his life would then be in their hands. He thanked God the responsibility was with them, and he trusted Provi dence would guide them to a righteous decision. _ The following witnesses w ere t h en examined for the prisoner:— John Thorpe, surgeon, of Malden, examined by Mr. PEACOCK—fie stated that he had been 27 years in prac tice. Had had considerable experience, and had occa sion to inquire into cases of suicide and homicidal stran gulation. He bad recently seen a case of suicidal stran gulation. The inference he should draw from the evi dence he had heard given in the present case was, that he thought there was a doubt as to whether it was a case of suicide or not. In his cross-examination by Mr. JAMES, the witness said ho had never seen a case of strangulation till the ore in February. In that esse the skin was not lace rated, nor did the tongue protrude from the mouth. There was no analogy in the violence in this latter case, nor in the manner in which the rope was held. He agreed with Dr. Taylor that the first coil round the neck would produce insensibility. By the ConaT—lt I saw any marks of violence on the body which I examined in February, it would make a great difference in the opinion I should form. Frederick Pollock. a surgeon, residing in Hatton garden, London, arid practisiu g for the last thirty years, had had his attention lately directed to the subject of suicidal and homicidal strangulation. He was present at one case of death by suicidal strangulation in January last. Having heard chi- evidence given in the present case, he felt considerable doubt us to whether deceased died by her own hand. On cross-examination he admitted that the marks of violence in different parts of the body would be very ma terial evidence in inducing him to arrive at a conclusion as to the way in which death had been caused. He be lieved that the first coil round the neck must have pro duced instant insensibility. The blood from the mouth and nose, and the lacerations of the neck, indicated great violence—the tongue protruding through the teeth was also indicative of violence. The bruises on the body, and the flattening of the nose, could not have been caused by the falling forward of a heavy woman. By Mr. PEACOCK-I du not think the violence was greater than might have been used by a determined suicide. Susannah Hubbard deposed that the prisoner returned from his work between half-past five and six o'clock on the evening in question. She believed that ho suckled the calves as usual, and after that he took his tea with witness, and having changed his shoes he asked fur a casket and straw to put some eggs in, and having got the eggs he went out about half-past six or seven, and she saw no more of him that night, having gone to bed at eight. Witness rose at six the next morning, and the prisoner got up immediately afterwards, and went about his work as usual. Isaac Gay, a labourer, employed by Mr. Hammond, one of the witnesses examined on the previous day, went with a team to Chadwell on the day in question, and on his return stopped at the Rising Sun public-house, about half a mile from his master's field. Jesse Barnard, a hay-binder, was at the Rising Sun on the evening in question, and saw the prisoner walking along the path towards Brentwood; that was about half past seven o'clock. Samuel Parker, landlord of the King's Head, Brent . wood, deposed that the prisoner came to his house on Saturday evening, the 12th of October, about twenty or twenty-five minutes past eight, and had a glass of half and-half. He had a basket with him. He went into the parlour, where there were ten or a dt.z.?et persons. Proud, the butcher, spoke to him. The prisoner after- wards had some refreshment in the small parlour, and witness observed nothing peculiar in his mangier or ap pearance. He always considered prisoner a person of very amiable and inoffensive character. John Proud gave evidence in corroboration of that of the last witness. During the time he was in conversa tion with him at the King's Head ho noticed nothing peculiar either in his manner or appearance. He always considered him a mild inoffensive young MID, John Hudson. a fishmonger of Brentwood, was also at the King's Head, and saw the prisoner there. His evidence was to the same effect as that of the two pre ous witnesses. Henry Lemon, a grocer of Brentwood, saw the pri soner at his shop between half-past nine and ten on the night of the 12th of October. He purchased some sugar, and took it away in his basket. Georce Wheel, a labourer, of Doddinghurst, knew the decteased. Sbe applied to lodge in his house just before harvest. She lodgtd some time with him. Someti mes she ap - earpd in good spirits, and sometimes not. He had many times heard her say that she car ried r. line in her pocket, with the intention of hangiiig herself. He had heard her say so three times in the course of a week, within ten days or a fortnight of the time of her death. That occurred whoa they were telkiog about the prisener. He did not notice what the conversations were about, es he thought the threats were all gammon. Mary Wheel, wife of the last witness, also deposed to the deceased, while she lived with them, being not very cheerful occasionally. She heard her say she had a razor in one hand and her hand round his neck, and had attempted to cut his throat. She also said she bad at tempted many times to make away with herself, but there was always something to prevent her. She said she had attempted it with a razor and a line. Her husband was present and heard all that was said. Wit ness thought she was gamtnonieg. ‘V. D Wright, a farmer, of Brentwood; Joseph Porter, of Shetifield Hall, and churcheattfen cf the parish; Samuel Bloomfield, farmer, of Brentwood; William Worth), farmer, of Shenfield; and John Mermen, of Pilgrim's Hatch. all gave the prisoner an excellent cha racter us an amiable and inoffensive man. This closed the case for this prisoner. Mr. JAMES then made a most eloquent and convincing reply, which was listened to with breathiest.; attention by a crowded court. He said that tee po•ition in which he stood at that moment was one of the most painful in which an advocate could he placed; but, appearing ma beheli . of the Crown, and having only one object in view namely, to further the interests of truth and justice, it became an imperative duty upon him to take care that the jury s ere not led away by any eloquence or sophistry from the real question at issue, and that they should clearly understand what were the paints of evidence upon which the prosecution relied for establishing the perpe tration of an enormous crime agaipst the prisoner; and if the evidence should be conclusive upon that point, that justice should net be defeated or a great criminal escape. The Learned Counsel then proceeded tem p irately and clearly to bring b fore the fury the prin cipal points in the overpowering evidence that had been given on behalf of the prosecution—the appoint ment to meet, the fact of 'the prisoner having left his house evidently with the intention of meeting his intended victim , the entire absence of any evidence to account for his time during the period when the mur der was no doubt committed; the blood upon his clothes; his false representations with regard to the deceased, and his conduct when he was informed of the discovery of the dead body of the murdered girl. He said that if they could reconcile all these circnmstances with the in nocence of the prisoner, no one would be more gratified than himself at their coming to such a conclusion ; but, upon the other hand, if they should v as he feared, be sa tisfied that these circumstances clearly Made out his guilt, their dui to their country, and the solemn oath they had taken, demanded of them such a verdict as would alone be satisfactory to their own consciences, and the justice of the country. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE commenced summing up shortly before tour o'clock. He said that on the jury now devolved the solemn duty of saying by their verdict whether the prisoner was guilty of the crime laid to his charge; and it had been truly said that his fate was in their hands. It was salleged on the part of the prose cution, that the prisoner, having had illicit connexion with this young woman, had formed a determination to destroy her, and in such a manner as that it should appear to be her own act, and that with this object he had made the appointment with her on the evening of the 12th Oc tober. The first question they would then have to con sider was, whether the deceased was murdered; and se condly, if she was, whether the prisoner's was the hand that destroyed her; and in coming to that conclusion they must not give any effect to suspicions or probabili ties, but it was the duty of the prosecution to satisfy them and to leave no moral doubt upon their minds that he bad committed the offence before they found him guilty of it. On the part of the prisoner it was contended that the deceased might have destroyed herself, and it was, therefore, a very important cousideration for the jury whether the case was one of suicide or murder. His Lordship then proceeded most carefully and minutely to go through the whole case, telling the jury in conclu sion that if they should entertain any fair or reasonable doubt of the, guilt of the pri son e r th ey oug h t to g i ve h i m the benefit of such a doubt, and acquit him. The jury did not deliberate more than ten minutes, when the!' returned a verdict of Guilty. Mr. Streight, the clerk of arraigns, then called upon the prisoner in the usual form to state whether be had anything to urge why judgment should not be passed upon him according to law. The prisoner made no answer. He appeared very slightly affected when the verdict was pronounced. The LORD CHIEF JUST CE then put on the black cap and passed sentence of death in a most impressive man ner upon the prisoner. He Said that atter a very long and anxious trial the prisoner had been convicted by a jury of his country of the crime of murder, and he must say that he entirely concurred in that verdict. His guilt had been brought to summary punishment, and his of fence had been accompanied by such circumstances of aggravation that he could not trust himself to comment upon them. His Lordship concluded by telling him that his days were numbered, and he conjured him to endeavour, by penitence and prayer, to obtain pardon from above, as in this world no mercy could be expected by hire. He then passed sentence of death in the usual form. The prisoner did not seem in any way affected by the awful sentence. He was speedily removed from the dock, and on his being taken to the carriage to convey him to the gaol he was received with yells and hooting by the assembled crowd. (B , fore Mr. Baron PARKE.) William Wood. 20, was indicted for the wilful murder of Robert B.caborough. Mr. T. Chambers prosecuted; Mr. Hawkins defended the prisoner. IC appeared that the deceased was one of the officers of the Essex constabulary, and in the month of Novem ber last he had to convey the prisoner to Chelmsford gaol, where he had been committed by the magistrates at the Billericay Petty Sessions upon a charge of poach ing. The prisoner had a handcuff upon one wrist, and the deceased held the other, and it appeared that as they were passing a pond by the side of the road between Billericay and Brentwood, the prisoner suddenly snatched his hand away from the policeman, and struck him a blow on the temple. which knocked him into the pond, and before he could recover himself he jumped upon him, and forced his head under water. When the deceased was almost insensible the prisoner ran away, leaving him on the ground, but it appeared that shortly afterwards he came back and pulled the deceased to the side of the pond, where he left him. He was taken out soon afterwards, but died in a few days in consequence no doubt, as it appeared, from the medical testimony of his being immersed in the water. The jury found the prisoner Guilty of Manslaughter, and ho was sent( need to be transported for life. These cases concluded the business of the Essex assizes. OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Worcester, March 7. CRO w N COUR r. —(Before Mr. Justice PATTESON.) Benjamin Baldwin was indicted for the manslaughter of Haunch Cooke, at the borough of Tewkesbury. Mr. R. Kettle appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Huddleston defended the prisoner. On Christmas-day the deceased Hannah Cooke and her husband, who kept a public house called the Severn Trow, at Tewkesbury, were sitting at home with several other persons in the house. About eight the prisoner, with three of his companions, came in. The prisoner and one of his companions were tipsy. After they had been in the Severn Trow some time they began quarrel ling. The deceased endeavoured to stop the quarrelling, and remonstrated with the prisoner, who, upon being spoken to, struck the deceased with his fist on the heats. At first she went about her hou,ebold affairs much as usual, but gradually became less and less disposed to move about," until the day week after she had bean struck, when she sunk into a s:ate of partial stupor, from which she never rallied. She died on the 10;h of January. After some deliberation the jury found the prisoner Guilty, strongly recommending him to mercy. Sent Que One month's imprisonment without bard labour. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—Lincoln, March 7. The calendar for this county contains the names of fifty-five prisoners, of whom four are charged with mur der, two with manslaughter, three with stabbing, one with abusing a girl under the age of twelve, five with endeavouring to conceal the births of children, five with arson, one with uttering counterfeit coin, one with forgery, one with endangering the safety of a railway passenger by throwing a stone of great weight upon the carri.ge, seventeen with burglary, one with robbery with violenerp, and the rest with larcenies. CIVIL SIDE —(Before Mr. Baron ALDERSON.) THOMPSON AND ANOTHER V. AEOCES. This was au action for money paid and for freight earned in carrying a cargo of timber from Boston to London. A sum of money had been paid into court, leaving a balance of about 201. in dispute. The Learned JUDGE, in accordance with the previous decision of the Court of Exchequer, held that the plain tiffs had brought their action too soon, and directed a nonsuit, but reserved leave to the plaintiffs to enter the verdict for them if the Court upon a consideration of all the facts now proved should think that they were en titled to do so. LARIDGE V. DIXON. This was an action on the case to recover compensa , tion for the injury which the plaintiff had sustained by the defendant driving his trig against her. Verdict for t h e plaintiffLDatnages 1501. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE ) This morning the following prisoners, each of whom had pleaded guilty to a charge of endeavouring to con ceal the birth of a child, were called up for judgment— namely, Ann Jinks, age d 25 ; M ary Andrews, aged 40; Sarah Leeson, aged 20; and Ann Wincb, aged 24. The Learned JUDGE, in an impressive address, warned the prisoners of the wickedness and danger of any de parture from that modest propriety of conduce which Young women ought carefully to observe. He was very glad to learn that one of them, Ann Winch, was now married to the man who was the father of her child, and ho should pass upon her a sentence which, though ap parently more severe, was in truth less severe than that which he intended to pronounce in the other cases. The other prisoners had all been in prison for many months, 2nd the , pntence upon them would therefore be a further imprisonment of one month with herd labour. Ann Winch had been in prison for a very short time, and the sentence upon her was, that she be imprisoned for three el,-;eths with hard labour. George Turner, a boy only twelve years of age, was indicted tor wilfully setting fire to a straw stack, the property of Ann Noi)les. The jury almost immediately Acquitted the prisoner. Robert Illegqitt. aged 74, was indicted for the wilful murder of George Sinderson, at Bonby, on the 71 1 o f day of October last, by stabbing him with a knife in his belly. Mr. Baden appeared for the prosecution, and the pr• soner was defended by Ur. Flowers. 1 The first witness called was the prisoner's son, who stated that his fseher Nees ehout 70 years old, fits: he had lived with bin many peas. ()a the night in ques tion the prisoner went to bed between nine and en o'clock, He slept with his with on the ground fl,or. Soon alter be had gone to bed witness heard a great noise in the room down stairs, and on getting up to see what was the matter he found his father with the tongs in his hands, and nothing on but his shirt, exclaiming, that he would beat some one's brains out. He appeared, as the witness expressed it, "quite crazed," and very violent. Witness tried to quiet him, and when the tongs had been taken from him the prisoner put on his trousers, still being held by his son and grandson, whom the noise hid ela-med. Rely rt Merl( ye a neighbour, came in, and finding the prisoner, his son, and grandson, all in their shirts, told tt:ern to get their c:ethee on and h e weeld hold hint d •wn.

The prisoner cumplained of choking, end wished to get up from tte beet, , ind on being let loose he stabbed the de ceased in the belly with is clasp-knife, such as he was in the hebit of carrying in his pocket; after he had etabbed hint, the prisoner said, "I dreamed a dream last night tnat I should kill some one with that knife." The Learned JUDGE then carefully summed up to the jury evidence as to the prisoner's qete of mind, and asked their opinion upon !hat question before he weet into rhe oi her pare of the case, The jury almest immediately returned a verdict of Not Guilty, on the ground of insanity. prisoner was thereupon ordered to remain in custody until her Majesty's pleasure be known. In the case of two women of the name of Bellamy, charged with child murder, the grand jury ignored the bill. Mr. Whitehurst, Q C., sat this afternoon in the grand ury-room to try prisoners. Charles Lee aged 26, and William Palmer, aged 18, were convict ed before him of two separate charges of arson. Both off -nces were committed on the Ist of Fe bruary, when the prisoners had been out of gaol only two drys. One consitted in setting fire to a stack Of oats, the property of James Osgarty, at Anwick, the other in setting fire to a stack of barley and a stack of wheat straw, the property of Edward Blackburn, at Les singham Both prisoners were transported for life. March 8. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE.) CHARGE of PoIRON/EG.—Eliza Smalley, aged 17, was mulcted fur the wil ul murder of Fretiees Page. Mr. N. H. Adams conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Willmore defended the prisoner. The deceased, Frances Page, was the wife of a farmer residing at Stow, in this county, and at the time of her death was between 50 and 60 years old. The prisoner was in their service. It is well known that farmers are in the habit of using a solution of arsenic for the pur pose of dressing wheat, and some time before the 7th of November last a large quantity of this preparation had been boiled in an iron pot at Mr. Page's for that pur pose. The stuff had been emptied out of the iron put in a large tub for use, and the iron pot was then taken back to the kitchen in order that more might be boiled but no more was required, and then the' iron pot was placed in the yard outside the kitchen door. It had a lid on it, but it was not cleaned out; for out of that iron pot beyond all question came the poison which de stroyed the life of Mrs. Page. According to the pri soner's own statement, on the morning of the 7th of November she took a gill full, or half a pint, of the stuff, out of the iron pot, and boiled it in the coffee for her master or mistress's breakfast. Mr. Page went out that morning before breakfast, and Mrs. Page had break fasted when he returned. lie took a cup of coffee, but before he had finished his breakfast Mrs. Page was taken ill. She was soon in great agony, and died at about 20 minutes to ten o'clock the same morning —that is, in rather less than two hours from the time at which she had taken the poisoned coffee. The medical man who was sect for came immediately, but she was in a state of collapse when he arrived, and quite beyond the aid of medical skill. The surgeons stated that her death was unqu, stionably occasioned by arsenic, but that there was no other case on record in which so rapid an effect had been produced by that poison. Mr. Page was also taken ill almost immeniately after his breakfast, but he very soon recovered. The prisoner had stated to the con stable, and afterwards to the coroner, that "she did not think it would have killed her mistress; she only thought it would make her badly." She also said that she never had any complaint against her master or mistress; and it appeared, in fact, that they had always treated her with great kindness. When asked the reason tor what she had done, she had said to one witness that her mistress had come down like a bull-dog that morning ; and to another, that on the Saturday before her mistress had charged her with killing a fowl, and she had told her mistress that she did not. These were the material circumstances proved in sup port of the charge. Mr. WILLNORE addressed the jury on behalf of the prisoner. The jury having remained in deliberation a short time, found the prisoner Guilty of Manslaughter only. The ',tamed JUDGE, in sentencing the prisoner to transportation for 15 years, implored her day and night to reflect with penitence upon the fatal consequences of the rash and wicked act ofewhich she had been guilty. Thomas Brown, aged 22, and George Plowright, aged 24, pleaded guilty t o a c h arge o f burglary committed on the night of iho Bth November last, in the house of Thomas Lidster, at Craislound, from which they suc ceeded in carrying off a great quantity of property. The sam, prisoner.; were al,o indicted for breaking and entering, on the 7th of November last, the house of William I lopkin at Grayinghaw, and using personal vitilsnee therein. To this indictment they pleaded not guilty. The Learned JUDGE having summed up the evidence, the jury found the prisoner Guilty, and the previous colivieti,n s for felony, under e hich they had been con fined at Kirton, %ere then given in evidence. The Learned JUDGE sentenced the in to be transported for the terms of their uatural lives. George Bell was indicted for throwing a stone at a railway train, so as to endanger the safety of a pas senger. Sir J. E. Wilmot prosecuted. The prisoner was clearly.proved to have thrown from a railway bridge a heavy stone, weighing nineteen ounces, upon the roof of a train passing along the Man chester Sheffield, and Lin co l ns hi re li ne, a b out six miles from Lincoln. The guard might have been hit by it; and, in fact, it only fell about 12 inches from where he stood. The jury found the prisoner Guilty; and The Learned JUDGE, observing that it was very ne cessary to put a stop to dangerous offences of thi s sort, sentenced him to six months imprisonment with hard labour. WESTERN ClRCUlT:—Winchester, March 7. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron MARTIN.) The grand jury having brought in all their bills, Mr. Baron MARTIN addressed them. It 'would seem that his observations on a case which had occurred the other day, with regard to the committal of persons who were charged wi(h small offenc es , h ad b een misunder stood. He did not intend to make any complaint against the magistrates for having committed the parties for trial; on the contrary, it was their duty whenever a case was brought before them, however trifling the charge might be, to investigate it; and if in their opinion the charge was made out, it was their duty to commit the party for trial; and his observations were directed with a view to call their attention to a serious consider ation of the matter, and whether it would not be right to inducm the Legislature to alter the law, so that thew slight offences might be brought before another tribunal. Eliza Miele was indicted for attempting to set fire to the Havant union workhouse. The jury found her guilty of setting fire to the bed, but not with intent to set fire to the house; therefore that was a verdict of Not Guilty. Thomas George Bolder was indicted for having.as satilted Mr. Anz,dell on th e 9t h of September, being armed with a pistol, at Southsea, with intent to rob him. The same. prisoner was i n di cte d for assaulting Benja min Bramble, being armed with a pistol. at Southses, on the night o f the 20,h August, and robbing him of a sil ver watch and other articles. The jury found the prisoner Guilty of both charges, and ho was srntenced to be transported for life. (Before the LORD CHIEF BARON.) William Wren was inoicted for having, on the 26th day of Dweetnber, at Millbrook, attempted to administer poison to Thomas Claridge and Mary Claridge, with in tent to kill and murder them. Guilty, but recommended y by the jury to mere _ on account of his youth (sixteen years of age). Proof of two former convictions against the prisoner was given, and he was sentenced to be transported for fif teen years. Grimes, who was convicted for setting fire to Park hurst prison, was now sentenced to be transported tor fifteen years. March 8. (Before the LORD CRiiir BARON.) William Witt was indicted fur wilful and corrupt per jury at the general quarter sessions of the peace for tt e county of Hanes, on the 9th of April, 1849, upon the trial of Moody and Dixon for deer stealing. Mr. C. Saunders and Mr. Kingdon were counsel for the pro rdict— secutor; and Mr. Maynard f or t h e prisoner. VeNot Guilty Henry Witt, brother of the last prisoner, was then put to the bar, upon the same charge, and a similar verdict was returned. The five other persons who had been indicted for the sa me offence were then put to the bar, but no evidence being adduced against them, they were Acquitted. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Befo re the RECORDER ) THE TRIAL OF MARY ANN PARKES Felt PERJURY. (Continued from The Sun t,f Sa'urday.) The Rev. Mr. Jerson was then celled, and he proved that he had never been out with the Earl of Stamford as alleged. The remaining evidence was merely a repetition of ha` appeared in the police reports, and proved that 'thee leaving her father's house she had travelled as the wife of a man named Sheridan. It urri% farther proved that she did not know the person of the Eatl, end bed risked her brother what he was bavi.g one° pointed out a person as his Lordship who was not at all like him. She bad also, according to the statement of a young man living at Hyde, been intimate with him, and had said the child was his. She had also made a false statement as to the date of the child's birth Mr. 600 PER CoßtOrgiPd that some one might have as sulinf'd the name of the Noble Earl, and so deceived and seduced the defendant, and that she, thinking it was the Earl, ha, p.rsimted in the charge.

BURWELL FEN RIOTS. THE MILITARY CALLED OUT. For upwards of twelve months the poor lands of Bur well have been the subject of considerable agitation and dissension among the inhabitants of the town, is con sequence of the refusal of the poor to allow the authori ties to carry out an order made by the Cour: of Chan cery, for the better regulation and cultivation of the said lands. Mr. C. M. Bidwell, surveyor, of Ely, was appointed by the court as manager to carry out its order. About six months since, when he attempted to , commence the work, he was much maltreated, and thrown into a ditch, the mob dtclaring they would serve anybody else the same that came there to interfere with their land. Things remained in this state until about six weeks since, wken twelve of the metropolitan police were sent for, and application was made for the assistance of the military, for the labourers determined to resist the civil authority. Towards eight o'clock on Thursday upwards of five hundred had assembled, including a great many females, and in the course of half an hour a company of the 48th Regiment of Foot, commanded by Colonel Wetherell, defiled before the mob. These having been followed by about forty of the 11th Hussars, with two magistrates, the Rev. J. T. Bennett and A. Cotton, Ebq., formal possession was taken of the ground by Mr. Bidwell and his men. Seventeen of the ring leaders were then apprehended, and conveyed to the Fox public-house, when two of them were committed for contempt of the Court of Chancery, and five of thorn were remanded until Monday for an assault on one of the magistrates (Mr. A. Cotton) on the pre vious Friday. The rest were bailed out. Thus finding they had been thwarted, a large number of the labourers made application to Mr. Bidwell to put them to work, and the probability is, that for some months to come nearly 100 of these very labourers will be engaged in the work of levelling and claying these very lands, preparatory to their being parcelled out to the really de scrying poor of the pariah at a nominal r(nt. The Hussars returned back to their quarters at Newmarket. mon iS th.pposed th e m ili tary wilt remain at Burwell a • Supposed TnE Pox CLuß.—The second meetin of the Fox Club, this sea son, took place on Satu r d ay evening g at Brooks's.
