Clitrb Ebttton SUN OFFTCE, Seven o' Clock. LONDON AND CROYDON RAILWAY. The Proprietors of this Company are respectfully informed that since the Meeting of the Proprietors of the Brighton Company, on the 9th inst., the following correspondence has passed between the tlvo Boards : London and Brighton Railway. London Terminus Dec. 11, 180. Dear Sir,—This Beard having submitted to their Proprietary the present position of the negotiation for settling the detailed terms of amalgamation of the Croydon Company with this Company I am in structed to express a hope that the negotiation may still be brought to a satisfactory issue. It is the opinion of the Proprietors of this Company that the terms contained in my letter of the sth ult., of which a copy is inclosed, should be again submitted to your Board, and I will therefore thank you to bring the subject under their con sideration, and favour me with their decision. I am, dear sir, yours truly, (Signed) T. I. BUCKTON. R. S. Young, Esq., Secretary, London and Croydon Railway Company. London and Croydon Railway Company, Secretary's Office, London Terminus, Dec. 13, 1845. Dear Sir,—l am requested to acknowledge the receipt of yonr otter of the 11th inst., and to assure your Board of the continued desire of the Directors of this Company to bring to a satisfactory issue the negotiation for the amalgamation of the two Companies. With respect to the terms contained in your letter of the sth ult., and which are again submitted to this Board, I have to state that the Directors remain of the same opinion, that the resolution passed at the meeting of the Delegates of the two Boards ought to have been adhered to. As, however, the Directors of this Company never did consider that circumstance of sufficient importance to justify the breaking off of a negotiation, entered into at the unanimous desire of the Proprietors of both Companies, they are prepared to resume the negotiations which were interrupted by your letter of the 21st ult., and to meet the Brighton Directors on the terms now proposed. I am, dear sir, yours truly, (Signed) R. S. YOUNG, Secretary. T. I. Buokton, Esq., secretary, London and Brighton Railway Company. THE NEW MINISTRY. ' Lord JOHN RUSSELL left town for Windsor at two o'clock to-day, accompanied by the Marquis of LANSDOWNE. His return is not certain, and until he comes back nothing will of course be known. It is generally believed, in the best-informed circles, that the caution requisite in taking so important a trust is the only cause of consideration ; but no doubts are entertained in any quarter that the PEEL Administration is totally and for ever at an end, and that a new Government will be formed as quickly as possible. It is also believed that Sir ROBERT PEEL, and the more rational of Lis Cabinet, will be found sup porters of Lord Jows RVSSELL'S measures. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) Lord JOHN RUSSELL left town this afternoon for Windsor Castle, to have an audience of her MAJESTY. The Duke of BKDFORD arrived in town to-day from Woburn Abbey, and visited his Noble Relative in Chesham-place. It is understood that Sir JAMES GRAHAM had an interview with Lord JOHN RUSSELL on Thursday. Rumours have been very prevalent during the day that Lord Jourt RUSSELL is not likely to form an Administration. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. SHEERNESS, Dxc. 11.—The alterations of the fortifi cations at Garrison Point, so as to mount from sixty to seventy guns of the largest calibre, which have been impeded fur some time, owing to the experiments re cently instituted at Woolwich, as to the best mode of pivoting the carriages of the guns, to determine whether or not they are to be secured to the masonry, are about to be recommenced with vigour, the result of the expe riments being in favour of fixing the platforms by pivots to the masonry, which must necessarily be strong to bear the recoil of such enormous guns as are now intended to be placed on all our fortifications. The ex cavations for the masonry on which the several travers ing platforms are to rest, are now being bedded with concrete, and the greater part of the stones are already hewn and ready to be laid down. A cargo of granite blocks for the pivots have arrived to-day from London. The guns are daily arriving from Woolwich ; the following have arrived up to the present time., viz., 8 eight-inch guns, 66 cwt. each, 9 feet long, or " 68-pounders;" 13 six-and-a-half inch guns, 56 cwt. each, 9 feet 6 inches long, or " 56-pounders ;" 4 six and a-half inch guns, 32 cwt. each, 6 feet 6 inches long, or long " 32-pounders ;" and 4 eight-inch guns, 98 cwt. each, and 11 feet long. A number of pivots have also arrived. The guns are to be mounted on traversing platforms, 16 feet long, and will be fired over the para pets, and pointed in any direction. The earth battery, with its deep fosse, forming opposite the dock-yard gate, progresses most rapidly, and when completed will be mounted with guns in a similar manner. The Electra, 18, Dido, 20, Snake, 16, and Ferret, 10, remain in dock under repair. The Dido's timbers have been found in a very defective state, as well as her plank ing, many of them being quite rotten. The Ferret's umbers are also in bad condition, but not quite so Ind as the Ditto's. All are being rapidly refitted for imme diate commission. The Fearless steamer, second-master George Brockman, recently arrived from Woolwich to replace the Dwarf steam-tender, has been de tached to the Chatham station, and is replaced here by the Wildfire steamer. The Bittern, 16, Commander Thomas Hope, progresses rapidly with her rigging and other fittings in the basin. She has her topmasts up, and will be all ataunt this week. A party of seamen from the flag-ship are assisting in her outfit, about forty men only having joined her. She will proceed to Spit head when fitted, and will doubtless pick up a crew there. Tho African, steamer, is in the North Camber, making good extensive defects which she sustained at Brighton. The Fury, steam-sloop, building, is nearly complete ; the ways are laid for launching, but the tides will not serve till the latter end of the month. The 27th has been named, but it is probable that the launch will not take place till the 29th or 30th. The Sampson, steam frigate, Captain Thomas Henderson, is to have a com plement of 180 officers and men ; and the Viper, brigan tine, Lieutenant Edward Gray, is to have a complement of 60 officers and men. Neither have yet hoisted the pennant. The Admiralty, with the view of still further encou raging: seamen to remain in her Majesty's service, have recently issued an order increasing the pay of seamen or extra riggers in the dockyards from 2s. 6d. to 3s. per diem, with the understanding, as stated in the original order issued about fifteen months ago, that they joined the service afloat when their services may be required. The Admiralty also, by a recent order, have been pleased to allow boys who enter the service as engineers ap prentices, to serve the last year of their time in the dock yards. PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY.—Rear-Admiral Hyde Parker has re-hoisted his flag on board the Victory, Captain Mowbray having returned from leave. The Daring, 12, Commander Matson, is in harbour re fitting with all dispatch. The Rodney and Superb are being caulked at Spit hes.d, as their coming into the harbour is at present un ce rtsti n. The Nelson, 120, has undergone a repair in the basin, and will be docked to be coppered as soon as possible, to be ready as an advance ship. The Nelson was built in 1814, and although so old a vessel, has never been com missioned. The shape of her stern was altered a short time since at a great expense. The masts with which the Lizard iron-steamer, Lieut.- Commander Fylden, left Woolwich, having been found too heavy, have been taken cut, and are to be replaced by three light ones, such as have been found to answer so well in the Fairy. The Scourge steam mortar ship, Commander Coffin, is rapidly preparing for sea. Lieut. W. Crawford joined her yesterday. At Spithead—The Rodney, Superb, Alarm, and Nautilus. _ In Harbour—The St. Vineent, Vietory, Excellent, Victoria and Albert, Fairy, Comet, Lizard, Echo (tug), and Daring. In the Basin—The Nelson, Trincomalee, Scourge, Harlequin, and Bee. In Dock—The Prince Regent, Amphitrite, Rattler, 'Wanderer, and Childers. Building The Princess Royal, Royal Frederic, Leander, Arrogant, Dauntless, and Rifleman. The half-yearly examination of the students at the Royal Naval College has commenced. The following are the officers studying at this establishment : Captains—Jones, Gifford, Hon. G. Hastings, and J:lalsted. Co mmanders —Sullivan, Fisher, Ingram, Fishbourne, ileiPman, and M'Cleverty. Lieutenants— Gri ffiths, l Royer, Ryder, and Wood. Mates—Parish, V Moque= est, Brandreth, Partridge, and Lieutenants of Marin es for the Artillery Companies— Meade, Gell, Henry, D avis, mastr and Baynes. Mr. Fincham, the shipwright of Portsmouth his Dockyard, and one of assistants, are ordered to w ake a strict investigation in to, and rep ort to the Ad miralty the cause of the continued leak in the Daring, 12-gun brig, Commander H. J . Matson. She still leaks, but not hin g of consequence; but sh e sme ll s so offensively that some of her officers have been driven from thetr sleeping cabins. s fr om The smell p roceed the lining of the vessel , and, it is said, was peree. perceptible before before she was filled with sa lt water at Pl y mo uth .supposed to be occasioned by some shavin g and sweep ings not properly cleansed out from between the timbers while building. in consequence of the increased number of contract workolen at Portsea, a chaplain is ordered to be pro vidpd tO assist the incumbent of St. Jolla's, in attending to their ,spiritual necessities. Mss GATE.—The high price of bread, and conse quent sca,ncity thereof to the poor, is most severely felt, and is greatly increased by the almost total failure of the potato mush as 12s a sack now being asked for that neces sary appendag►' to the dinner of a poor and large family. the arrival of .the news of the probable abolition of the corn -laws was must cheerfully received by all such sufferers. Every tradesman Lit the town begins to feel the injurious effects of a dear loaf, it being quite evident that the more money that article of food costs the poor man with scanty wages, the less he can have to lay out with other tradesmen for other necessary articles, including clothes, shoes, lac.— Zeal Herald. IRELAND. DUBLIN, DEC. 10.—STATE OF TIPPERARY.—The northern division of Tipperary is daily becoming more disorganised by agrarian combinations. The accounts received this morning are truly disheartening, and show a daring and desperation on the part the persona en gaged in those confederacies, which prove how deeply seated is the source of the evil in the social system. There appears to be a total alienation between the owners and occupiers of the soil, and the law is altogether pa ralysed. Twelve or fifteen years ago the north division had been comparatively tranquil, whilst the southern portion of .the country had been in a state bordering upon insurrection. Within that interval, North Tipperary has become the focus of disturbances, whilst the southern riding has been, to a great extent, tranquillised. This change and its causes were noticed and accounted for by Baron Pennefather, in a re markable address delivered by that learned and ex cellent judge at the last assizes of the southern riding, in which he is the owner of an extensive estate. That property has been, in the hands of its former proprietors, " a field of blood ;" but by a total change of system—by the practice of kindness and for bearance towards the tenantry—by treating them as human beings, sympathising for their wants, and en couraging and rewarding their industry, Baron Penne father rendered his estate a pattern fur order and tran quillity to the surrounding district. The landlords of the south have, many of them, improved their system, and the southern riding has ceased to be the scene of con stant violence and outrage. It is some such remedy as this that the north riding. now so frightfully disturbed, requires, and not martial law or insurrection Acts, which have been unavailingly tried for fifty years past, never producing a remedy ; but, en the contrary, always aggravating the disease. At this moment the police surveillance in North Tipperary could scarcely be exceeded under a coercion Act, yet such terrible proceedings occur as the following, detailed by the Tipperary Vindicator, a moderate and intelli gent journal, published in Nenagh : " Arracx ort A POLICE PATROL.—It may not be generally known at a distance that the custom of police patrols at night, throughout a very wide district of country, is general in many parts of Tipperary. par ticulurly in the baronies of Upper and Lower Or mond, Owney, and Arra, Ikerrin, Ellogarty, and Killnemanagh. This custom has been observed for a considerable period, and even during the day on certain occasions, particularly during certain hours on Sunday, patrols are everywhere out, and the coun try, in fact, under a police surveillance, as strict, as rigid, and as vigilant, as though an insurrection Act were in active existence, and those parts in question of Tippe rary proclaimed. Sunday evening, so early as six o'clock, the Killoskully patrol, consisting of five sub-con stables, under Constable Patrick O'Hara, proceeded in the direction of Ballynahinch, where they went into a house in which they had reason, we believe, to suppose that suspicious characters were at the time located. Having left the house, they were fired at by a party of Terry Alts' who lay in wait apparently for them, and who exhibited a bold and reckless front. The police returned the fire, when a skirmish took place between them and their opponents, who again fired. One of the police, named Anthony Cullen, in the act of firing a shot which he discharged at one of the Terry Alts,' received a ball, which penetrated the left arm, and lodged in the right elbow. Shot succeeded shot on both sides, when the police at length routed their assailants, having ar rested one of them, taken a pistol from another, and found a gun and hat which were dropped by some of the party in a field. " HORRIBLE MURDER NEAR BORRISORANE. addition to the above, we regret deeply to add the account of a perpetration of a murder, under the most re volting circumstances, near to Borrisokane, on Mon day evening. The victim in this instance was a man of the name of Hogan. He had been in Por tumna, we understand, during the day, disposing of corn, and was returning homewards leading his horse and car, when, at the gate of Kyle Park, he was waylaid and shot dead. The weapon, it is thought, was a blun derbuss, which must have been placed near the body of the unfortunate man, as his clothes were torn by the shot, and partially burned. Yesterday (Tuesday) morning, James Carroll, Esq., county coroner, pro ceeded to the scene of this foul and barbarous murder, and held an inquest on the remains of the murdered man. We have heard that Hogan was one of the pro secutors for the beating of Dr. and Mrs. Hobbs, at the last assizes for this county, for which two men of the name of Hogan were sentenced—the one to seven and the other to fourteen years' transportation. We have heard also that since that period Hogan, the prosecutor, has been protected by the police; but it would seem that the police were absent at the time he was thus waylaid and murdered." SUICIDE OF ALDERMAN HEARN. In reference to this lamentable occurrence, the Evening Mail says:—" We learn from a correspondent that the de ceased had been implicated in a case of defalcation to the extent of fourteen to sixteen thousand pounds, which has just been brought to light within the last few days." The Cork Reporter has the following on the same sub ject :—" A respectable gentleman, a resident of Clonmel, received a letter in this city this morning, acquainting him with the particulars of the double suicide of a gen tleman of that town and his nephew, yesterday. It ap pears that the bodies of both were discovered in a vat in a porter brewery, where they had lain for four hours, of course both dead, with two letters directed to friends, and a portion of their dresses in the apart ment. In anticipation of the particulars of this melan choly circumstance, which will no doubt be furnished by the local journals, we learn that there had been men tion made of the deceased haring been largely. and it is presumed unsuccessfully, engaged in railway speculation, which it was said there was little doubt was the direct cause of the awful catastrophe. In the absence of further confirmatory information, we withhold the names of the parties, who are well known in commercial circles, but in a later impression we expect to be able to give the details circumstantially." TUE MILITIA.—The Banner of Ulster, in reference to the current statements about the calling out of the militia, says, " We understand, from pretty good autho rity, that it has been the intention of Government, for some time past, to raise a certain number of militia regi ments by ballot, on low establishments, say 250 privates for an eight-company corps, for the purpose of supplying the regular army with volunteers, and doing away with the depots, even though the war which we are now threatened with had never been mooted." WRECK or A SCHOONER.—On Wednesday, by means of the telegraphic signals between this and Holy head, we learned that on Monday night the schooner Cheering, of Dover, was wrecked on West Hoyle Bank. She was totally dismasted, and was lying on her beam-ends. The Point of Ayr life-boat put off to her at twelve, noon, yesterday, and the Hoylake life-boat at half-past twelve, P.M. The crew had not been heard of.—Liverpool Courier. RAILWAY FORGBRY.—Thursday information was given, with a description of a person named Robert Thomp son, who, it is alleged, obtained by false pretence from Mr. William Hitchins, of the Hall of Commerce, in Thread needle street, a banker's receipt for 1201., being the amount of deposit on forty shares in the British and Irish United Railway Company, and afterwards, by means of forging, obtained scrip, sos. 19,441 to 19,480. He is stated to be about forty-four years of age, of florid complexion, with black curly hair; is a bootmaker by trade, and formerly lived at Croydon. SHIPWRIICK.—In a letter from Barra, dated Bth ult., we have the following :—" A vessel, the crew of which are all Spaniards, was lately stranded near Alasdale. She is imbedded in sand, so that the amount of injury suffered hag not yet been ascertained. The crew of the unfortunate vessel were all saved by means of a rope cast from her towards the shore. Part of the cargo, which consists of fish, has been landed, but cannot be sold until the Comptroller of Customs arrive from Stornoway."—Inverness Courier. FRIDAY NIGHT S GAZETTE.

The average price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, the produce of the British possessions in America, com puted from the returns made in the week ending Dec. 9, 1845, is 355. 9d. per cwt. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of Dec. 12.) Suoalt.—To-day there was no public sale of any descrip tion of Raw Sugar, and the quantity declared is unimportant, still the market for all home trade descriptions is in a very dull state, and prices are on the decline. Although West India Muscovadoes was offered upon lower terms, still all descriptions were purchased with caution, only 470 hhds and tierces being actually sold, making the total sales for the week only 1,270 hhds and tierces, and the fall in prices for that time is 6d to 2s 61 per cwt. This after noon a parcel of middling bright Grocery Demerara was dis posed of at 478 per cwt. REFINED.—To•day Refined Goods were purchased with caution by the home trade, brown grocery lumps at 63s to 63s 6d, and Standard lumps at 64s to 653 per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar is neglected, and prices have become nominal. MArninus.—None has been offered at public sale, but a parcel will be declared shortly, a cargo of 4,500 bags, &c., of the new crop having arrived. There has been little inclina tion manifested by grocers or refiners to operate privately, and the few parcels disposed of were upon lower terms. The importation in the ensuing year is likely to be even much larger than in the present one and the quality superior. The quantity remaining unsold of the old crop is trifling. EAST INDIA.—The arrivals of Bengal this week having been large, amounting to 13,279 bags, have caused merchants to be desirous to realise, and they submitted to a reduction on previous rates of is for brown, is to Is 6d for white, and 2s to 38 per cwt for yellow Mauritius kind, of which the supply has principally consisted. Notwithstanding the de cline the trade have been cautious in their proceedings, and there has been little business transacted privately. FOREIGN.—There are few purchasers of Brazil, although there are sellers at a further decline in prices of is per cwt.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York, Dec. 11. (Before Mr. Baron PLATT.) CHARGE OF MURDER OF A WIFE BY HER HUSBAND. -George Watson was charged with having, on the Ist if August last, at Selby, committed the crime of wilful murder, by inflicting one mortal wound and stab on the body of Elizabeth Watson, his wife. Mr. Bliss, Mr. Monteith, and Mr. Overend were counsel for the prosecution ; and Mr. Hall and Mr. Travis appeared for the prisoner. Joseph Jeap was the first witness called for the pro secution. He stated that he was a journeyman shoe maker with the prisoner, who had for many years been a master shoemaker, carrying on a considerable business in the town of Selby. The prisoner and his wife were nearly of the same age, about 40. They had two chil dren, a boy of 14 and a girl of 17. He bad two shops at his residence in Selby, in the same building—a front sale shop, and a front workshop, at the back of one of which there was a passage leading to the dwelling. house. The prisoner had employed a good many hands in the business. His conduct towards his wife had been generally bad. He used to abuse her both by blows and ill-language. On the morning before the deed was done the prisoner was drunk. On the 31st of July, the day preceding, he had been drinking. :Ile was at the back door leading into a yard, sitting there with the deceased. He had a tract in his hand, showed it and said to witness, " What dost thou think of this ?" (referring to something written on it). Witness looked and said, " You will never stand it." He replied that he would. Witness asked "If it was all well with him ?" Prisoner said, " Yes ; he would never have any more drink as long as he lived." His wife, who was by at the time, said she hoped he would give over drinking. Next day the prisoner came into the shop and gave witness some directions about cutting out some shoes, but returned after, saying he would go and lie down for awhile, and then do it himself. It had been his practice to lie down for awhile in the middle of the day, whether ill or well. He complained then that his head ached, but appeared to be sober and collected. He left, and returned in about three-quarters of an hour to the shop. Witness believed deceased was in the shop then. The prisoner's face looked red, and he asked the witness if it was not red. He afterwards went out in the direction of tl.e market-place, towards a gin shop, kept by a person named Wilson. He came back again in the "thick end" (best part) of an hour. Soon after that witness heard a cry of " Oh, conic into the house, father has stabbed mother !" He went into the house, and onward to the yard. Deceased was standing then against a doorway next the yard. She was screaming as loud as she could, and pointed down the yard, exclaiming, "He is cutting his own throat." Prisoner was then six or seven yards off, and appeared to be cutting his throat with a short and sharp shoe- khife. Richardson, Robinson, and Cans, three other men in his employ, then came Out from where they were at work to him. Some of them took hold of him while witness went for a doctor. On his coming back, prisoner said to him, " Now, my lad, Joe, I've done for ner," and added that one of the men, Thomas Hemingbo rough, "might take her now." Witness had heard him swearing at her while she was crying, and many a time he had got between her and him, to enable her to get from him and out of the house. He used to came home drunk, ask for money, and abuse her, but had ob served nothing particular of that kind within three mouths before the Ist of August. On cross-examination, the witness said that deceased was an excellent and kind person. The prisoner had been of drunken habits for about five years. He used frequently to complain of headache. About the Ist of June last he was under a sort of confinement, but never saw him, except at that time, in a dangerous state. He then seemed to be not exactly as he should be. About a fortnight before, and while sober, he was swearing at the deceased, He had fits of drunkenness once a month, or once a fortnight, or a week. Re examined.—The prisoner was jealous of the man Hentingborough. He said that man had been too fami liar a ith deceased ; but he had not said so till within four or five weeks before her death. At the time he was under confinement he appeared not to be right. Mrs. Hester Lowther said, that. she is a widow, living next door to the prisoner's house. Liquor and bad com pany had " made him a very unkind man." On the Ist of August the deceased had called witness into pri soner's house. She then found him sitting smoking. He appeared very sober. The first he said was, " I'm determined to become a new man." Then he showed her a tract, on which he bad written that "he was never to touch spiritous liquors from that time ever more," and " that he had knelt down and kissed the book." His wife sat next him, and he kissed her, and shed tears, and appeared to be very penitent. On the same evening, about eight, the witness heard screams from the deceased. Went to see her in bed soon after, and heard her say she thought she should never get better. At about nine that evening saw prisoner in his own house. He was sitting bleeding from the neck. He shook witness by the hand, blessed her, and said he should never see the light of another day. He talked in a random way, and mentioned a great many people. Witness asked him if he had had any liquor, and he said he had, but he had no appearance of it, and he seemed to be quite sober. Ile blamed a man named Hemingborough, and said " he had silenced that concern," or " had put a stop to that connexion," or to that effect. Rachel Bean (a friend of the prisoner's fautily)—Had been at the house several times on the day in question. He then seemed quite collected. Had never seen him and his wife better friends before. Saw the deceased imme diately after she was stabbed. She was at the kitchen door, looking into the yard, and cried out, " Oh, he has stabbed me. Never mind me ; go to him—he is cutting his own throat !" Witness said to him, " Oh, Mr. Wat son, you have done for your wife." He turned round, and grinned twice, looking towards deceased. He then said, " D—n it, then, I'll do for myself." He had the knife then, and began to haggle and saw his throat with it, but did not use much force. Robinson, the workman, then went to him. William Richardson, a young man of twenty, and ap prenticed to the prisoner, recollected the unkind treat ment of prisoner towards his wife ; but not that he had abused her at any time within a fortnight before that day. Heard the prisoner say that he had stabbed his wife, " that he knew she would die, and that he would kill himself." Prisoner also said that it was Mrs. Capes's sister who had caused it. About a quarter of an honr later prisoner said that he had "done for" his wife, that he hoped she would die, and that he meant to kill her. He said he had "got a gill in order to give him a good heart," and that they would find the bottle in the leather house, on a shelf there. William Robinson confirmed much of the preceding testimony. He took the knife from prisoner's hand. Heard prisoner say, " She would have no more of her Tom Hemingborough," and such like. Joseph Caris, also apprentice to the prisoner, said he heard the prisoner say, " I've done for her." I've stuck it into her entrails. I know she won't get better." Also heard him say that "he had a gill before, to make him have a good heart to it." James Rathmell, constable of Lilly, went to the pri soner's house on the evening of the Ist of August. The prisoner at once told him he had stabbed his wife, with out being asked. The witness here produced the knife, a shoemaker's knife, having a blade of tibout four inches in length. The prisoner said he would kill his wife, if he had not already done it. Said she was cohabiting with a man named Hemingborough. He said, also, that he had purchased the gin " to encourage him to kill his wife," and told him where to find the bottle. Th e b o t t l e produced was a half-pint glass bottle, with a little gin left in it. Prisoner appeared to be affected by liquor, but knew what the was saying at that tim e . H e after wards talked rationally, and on the Monday next, t h e deed having been committed on the Friday, h e ma d e an assignment for the benefit of his creditors. He made two attempts to get his throat open, it having been sewed up, and actually did that on the following Tuesday. George Lowther, constable of Selby, proved that the deceased had said, when under the impression that she could not recover, that " he laid one hand on her shoul der, and then banged the other band against her belly:" She referred to her husband when saying this. This witness said he bad given a copy of what he could say about it to the prisoner's attorney. Thomas Hemingborough had been nine years and a half with the prisoner as journeyman shoemaker, but did not live in the same house. Had heard prisoner charge deceased with having had improper connexion with him (the witness). Witness declared there was not the slightest foundation for the accusation. Had heard pri soner himself say that he did not believe it. Crass-examined by Mr. HALL—Witness knows one Hoby, a shoemaker, who has a stall in Selby. Has seen deceased near Hoby's stall, sitting there, while he and Ifoby were talking together. Mr. John Birkett, the medical man, described the wound given to deceased. It was in the lower part of the belly. A portion of the omentum was protruding from it, and deceased died of that wound at about eight o'clock on the evening of Saturday the 2d of August. At eight in the morning of that day he had told her he had no hopes of her recovery, She said, "I'm a mur dered woman, but I f ree ly forgive him, and don't allow him to come into my presence." She did not mention any name. The wound was such as the knife would produce, about one inch long, and three inches in depth. That on the prisoner was about one inch deep, and three inches long, but of less depth towards the windpipe. At about nine; o'clock on the Ist of August the prisoner said he was sorry for what he had done. He said he had got the gin a quarter of an hour or twenty minutes before he had dune the deed, and that it was to "stimu late him to do the act." He added something about his jealousy, and said that Hemingborough and his wife wore too friendly, and that was the cause of his doing it. Witness had attended him for some years. Was not aware of his ever suffering from an aberration of mind. Attended him in June, and he bad then been very in temperate ; he was excited, and had pails in the head and fever, for which witness had bled him, and given him aperients. He was capable of judging of' his own conduct. Never knew of his having delirium tremens. Mr. HALL, this being the case for the prosecution, i n addressing the jury for the prisoner, which he did in a speech of considerable length, contended that the charg e of murder was not made out ; that at most it was but a case of manslaughter, from the absence of premeditation ; but that it was rather a case in which the prisoner ought to be acquitted, on the ground that he was insane at the moment' of committing the act. His LORDSHIP differed with the prisoner's Counsel in his supposing that this could be a case of manslaughter. The law would imply malice in the prisoner, from the deadly nature of the weapon here employed. As to the question of insanity, if the jury believed that although the prisoner had been voluntarily a drunkard, yet that hls habits of intemperance had so affected his mind as to have rendered him a person of unsound understanding, it would be for them to acquit him upon that ground ; otherwise it would be their duty to convict him, if they believed the facts stated of the crime with which he was charged. _ _ _ The jury retired for nearly thirty-five minutes, and then Acquitted the prisoner upon the ground that.he was insane at the time he gave the wound. The case occupied the whole day, till past seven in the evening. (Before Mr. Justice ERLE). William Lyon, aged twenty-five, was indicted for having, on the Ist of July last, at Bolton, in the East Riding, feloniously assaulted Mary Ann Leak, and vio lated her person. Mr. Matthews and Mr. Pickering were counsel for the prosecution ; and Mr. Dearsley defended the pri soner. . Convicted—Sentenced to be transported for life. Adam Farrand, aged twenty-five, was charged with a similar offence upon Elizabeth Clegg, at Quick, on the 30th of November. Mr. Pickering and Mr. Hardy appeared to prosecute and Mr. Bliss defended.—The prisoner was Acquitted. (Before Mr. Justice WILLIAMS•) PIRACY.— Thomas Sheade, John Coppleston, Herman Hinka, Thomas Boyle, J. 111‘Cann, and Heary Matthews, were indicted for making a revolt in the ship in which they were employed as mariners. The captain of the vessel, John Dodd Peatin, stated that the Champlin, the vessel in question, left St. John's, New Brunswick, on Thursday, the 21st of August last, with a cargo of timber, bound to Dungarvan. The pri soners were part of the crew. They had received 51. advance, the half of their wages, for the trip. The weather for the first two days was fine, but the vessel made a little water, not more, however, than ten mi nutes' pumping in the two hours would clear. On the Saturday morning, about nine o'clock, when the mate's watch was summoned on deck, all the crew except Hinka (who was at the wheel), the mate, and the cook, came in a body to the quarter-deck and told the captain the ship should go no further, but must return to St. John's. Boyle was the chief spokesman, and called to Hinka to put the helm up, while the others proceeded to square the yards with the intention of bringing the ship round. Matthews, who was the carpenter, said the ship would make more water, and they would go no further. The captain called to Hinka to keep the vessel in her course, and Hinka obeyed. The men then went forward and went below. They were almost immediately followed by Hinka, who, when asked by the captain what he was going to do, said he would do as the rest. The men re mained below, and refused to do duty for thirty-two hours. Shortly after they had gone below the wind fresh ened, and it became necessary to shorten sail. All hands were called for this purpose, but did not make their ap pearance. Both the captain and mate went to the fore castle, and desired them to come on deck, but they re fused. The captain, mate, and cook, after great labour and some peril to the ship, succeeded in shortening sail, though of course in an imperfect manner. On the Sun day morning Boyle came aft with the bread-kit in his hand, and asked for some bread. The captain, who had all the provisions below, and had put out the galley fire, said they should have nothing until they would turn to and pump the ship. Boyle then said they world let the water come up to the forecastle deck ; that they would then take to the boats, and leave him to walk the plank. On the afternoon of Sunday, the Noble, of Lubeck, in the United States, came in sight. The captain of the Champlain hoisted a signal of distress, and was boarded by the captain of the Noble. He stated the condition of his ship and crew, and was advised to go into Machias, in the state of Maine. The second:mute of the Noble was put on board, and on the vessel being put about the crew returned to their work and pumped the vessel. She was quite clear six hours before she got to Machias, which was on the afternoon of the Monday. Ott the Sunday afternoon the captain observed two plugs stick ing out of the vessel's bow, a short distance under water —these were shortened by some one before the vessel got to Machias, awl were then found to be flush with the seathing and blackened over. On an examination at Machias they proved to have been thrust from the inside into two holes, which had been bored through the bot tom of the vessel from the forepeak. Two of the revolters escaped at the Madeiras, and the others were sent home under the treaty with the United States. The jury found the prisoners Guilty, and his Lord ship sentenced Boyle to twelve months' imprisonment, Matthews to nine, and Hinka and the other to six. PERSONATING A VOTER.—Richard Bent was indicted for personating a voter at the late municipal election for the borough of Bolton. It was dearly proved that the prisoner, who is a shoe maker at Leigh, handed in a voting paper in the name of John Hidden, and alleged that he was the party there described. The prisoner was convicted. _ _ _ A motion was made in arrest of judgment, on the ground that, in the first four counts, framed on the pro visions of the Act, which make it penal " wilfully" to give false answers to the qtu stion specified in the Act, to be put to persons tendering their votes, the word wil fully was not inserted, but the words " falsely and ma liciously ;" a hid' it was contended would not supply the omission. As to the last two counts, in which it was charged that the party personated a voter with intent contravene the provisions of the Act of Parliament, this, it was alleged, did not amount to a description of any offence at common law. His LORDSHIP, after hearing a lengthened argument, said judgment would be postponed, to allow time for a more mature consideration of the objections, the de • fondant remaining out on bail. The business of the assizes concluded to-day. POLICE IN TELLIGEN CE. GUILDHALL. CHARGE OF AR SON.—John George Ford was again brought up for further examination, charged with setting fire to his house in Braimes• buildings, Beech lane, Barbican. A report of this case appeared in our paper yester day, wh( n the Magistrate declined proceeding further, and the officer was told he might convey the prisoner to Newgate, under the coroner's warrant. At a later period of the afternoon the Coroner being informed of the decision of the Alderman, arrived, and said that having heard the result of the proceedings be fore the worthy Alderman, he wished to explain to the magistrate the reason IA by he had sent the case before him. The prisoner had caused two houses to be burned down, one of them his own. The burning of this was a felony by statute, but not by common law, therefore he, as Coroner, could take no cognizance of that offerce, and sent it before the magistrate fir inquiry. At the same time he must be permitted to express his surprise that the solicitor for the Imperial Fire-office had stated that he had no evidence to offer, or instructions to prose cute. He certainly expected the fire-office would be the first to support a prosecution, and take care that the ends of justice were secured, and he was surprised to find the solicitor was not prepared to say what course he intended to pursue. He had committed the prisoner for burning the house next to his own, which was an offence by the common law as well as by the statute. The solicitor for the fire-office said, the Company were not indifferent to the subject, but really had not determined what course to pursue. He thought the remarks were most uncalled for by the Coroner, as the Queen was the prosecutor. The Alderman said, that under these circumstances he had heard enough to justify a remand for further examination. Alderman HUNTER now wished to know how they in tended to proceed against the prisoner ? A clerk from the firm of Messrs. Le Blanc and Co., solicitors to the Imperial Assurance Office, said that the Company were not aware of the proceedings that had taken place before the Coroner until the previous day. They now came forward to prosecute on public grounds. Mr. Wakeling, on behalf of the solicitors to the Com pany, conducted the prosecution; and Mr. Wolfe, from Mr. Flower's office, appeared for the defendant. A number of witnesses were called; but as th e sub- stance of their evidence has already appeared in our columns, there is no occasion for repetition, as there was no new feature developed. Mr. Wakeling applied for a remand, as there were two witnesses absent who might give material evidence. Mr. Wolfe contended that there was not the slightest occasion for a remand, in consequence of there not being a tittle of evidence against the prisoner. In fact, he ought to be discharked. Alderman HUNTER thought he should remand the prisoner for further examination until Tuesday next, for the production of the other two witnesses. Mr. Wolfe applied for his client to be let out on bail. Alderman HUNTER said he could not csnsent to that, and the prisoner was removed from the dock. BOW-STREET. --- Yesterday Charles Shannion alias Vincent, a lock smith, was charged before Mr. Jardine with breaking and entering the dwelling-house of Mr. Rivers, in Gower-place, Tottenham Court-road, and stealing a desk and other articles, value 201., the property of a lodger. Mr. Rivers stated that, on Thursday evening ho was sitting with his family in the front kitchen, when he heard some person walking about in the room above; and being aware that his lodger, Mr. Burch, a medical student, was not at home, he proceeded up stairs. On entering the - parlour he discovered that the desk produced had been taken away. He then went to the hall door, which he found open, and cried "Stop thief 1" which attracted the attention of a number of boys, among whom was his son; and having gone in pursuit, they overtook the prisoner near the gate of the Univer sity College, with the desk in his possession, which he threw on the pavement, and tried to make his escape, but was overtaken in a short time, and given in charge. The constable who apprehended the prisoner stated that when he asked the prisoner why he was running away, he replied, that hearing a number of boys crying out he wanted to deceive them by running away, but he could give no account of the skeleton keys found upin him. Several boys were in attendance to confirm the above account, but as their evidence was dispensed with till a future day, the prisoner was ordered to be remand , d. CHARGE OF FORGERY.—ThOiMiS CaiSke was brought np for final examination, charged with uttering a forged cheque for 40/., with intent to defraud Messrs. Drum mond and Co., bankers. Mr. Bush conducted the prosecution. The prisoner entered the banking-house of the prose cutors on Wednesday morning, with a letter, purporting to be written by Mr. Thomas Edwards, his uncle, who resides at Straden House, Chelsea, requesting to be fur nished with a cheque-book, as he kept an account at the house, which was furnished him, and in the course of an hour and a half he called again with the cheque produced for payment, hut upon complying the signatute with the paid vouchers of Mr. Edwards, it was discovered to be a forgery, and the prisoner was detained until a constable arrived, who found in his pocket a book from which the cheque had been extracted, and which he had received at .the bank the same morning. Mr. Edwards said that he bad not seen the prisoner for the last two years. The signatures to the cheque' and the letter applying for the cheque-book were both in the handwriting of the prisoner, with which he was well acquainted, and he never authorised him to sign his name. The prisoner was committed to Newgate for trial. William Wahe? ow, Robert John Bradbeer, William Bradbeer, Richard Bradbeer, Thomas Leadgrove, and Themes Wathin Wynne, all of whom appeared to be mechanics, were charged with creating a disturbance at the Palace Court, in Scotland-yard, and with assaulting the officers in the execution of their duty. It appeared from the statement of the officers con nected with the Palace Court, that a case was tried in which.the defendant happened to be a friend of the pri soners. After the case had been tried, the jury were allowed to retire from the Court for a thort time under the protection of an officer. Previous to their retiring for the purpose of considering the verdict, and on going outside the Court one of the prisoners attempted to speak to a juryman, which Kelly, the officer in charge, prevented by pushing him away. The circumstance drew the other prisoners to the spot, and,they not only attempted to rescue the one who was taken into custody, hut also ill-treated Pinner, another officer, who inter fered. On the termination of the cause the confusion in the Court became so intolerable that the Judge directed one of the prisoners to be given in charge. One of the prisoners said that the officers were deter mined to take revenge on him, because about six weeks back his goods were seized by them for a debt due by another person, for which he brought an action against them in the Court of Exchequer, and they were deter mined to persecute him. Mr. JARDINE said that the charge was of too serious a nature for him to deal with, and as it would occupy a considerable time to take the whole of the depositions preparatory to sending the prisoners to the sessions, they should find two sureties in 101. each to appear again to answer the charge on Tuesday next. WORSHIP-STREET. Three men, named John Strutt, Wm. Wren (both of them in the employ of Mr. Twogood, proprietor of the Blue Boar Inn, at Aldgate), and Job Bates, a railway porter, were brought up for examination, charged with stealing several parcels of property. Mr. Hobler, the solicitor, attended for the prosecution, and Mr. W. Heritage for the prisoners. James Reeve, a carrier between London and Col chester, who had been repeatedly robbed of parcels en trusted to him for transmission by the Eastern Counties Railway, was at the Blue Boar on the day in question, and after his waggon had been loaded he insisted on having it unloaded again for his own personal inspection of the contents, and he then discovered a paper parcel was missing from one of the hampers. On searching about he found the parcel in a shed on the premises, and then packed it and five other parcels together in one wrapper, and the waggon being again loaded it was driven to the railway, and the contents there deposited in a railway truck. Reeve, who had followed, went him self by the same train to Colchester, keeping the truck with his goods in sight all the way; but when he, assisted by a railway porter, unloaded the truck at Colchester, he found only four parcels in the package in which he had himself packed six, and upon his return to London he caused the apprehension of the three prisoners who had been employed in loading and unloading the waggon be fore he started. Sergeant Barker, 11 H, produced some pieces of woollen cloth, waistcoating, &c., and also some fine green tea, which had been found on searching the residence of the prisoner Strutt. Nothing material was found in the possession of the others, except that Bates had two savings' bank books, containing entries of two sums of 301. and 201., to the credit of that prisoner and his wife separately on one day. Two of the clerks in the employ of Messrs. Nash, woollen merchants in Cheapside, stated that the pieces of woollen, &c., produced, found in Strutt's possession, corresponded precisely with goods contained in a parcel made up by them for a Mr. Bryant, at Colchester, and sent to the Blue Boar, to be conveyed by Reeves, the carrier, to the railway. John Bunnings, clerk to Messrs. Wyley and Co., wholesale grocers, in the City, stated, that on the 16th of October, he sent to the Blue Boar a parcel, containing 51b. 6oz. of tea, directed to Mr. Rowe, at Ticklebury, in Norfolk, but it had never been delivered to the latter. He believed the tea now produced to be a part of the same, but he could swear positively to a paper bag pro duced, as having been made by himself. Sergeant Barber requested a further remand to con• tinue his inquiries. Mr. Heritage submitted that against Bates there was no case whatever. The Magistrates remanded Strutt for a week, but ad mitted both Bates and Wren to bail. HORSE STEALING.—John Trindle, formerly Si cabri olet proprietor, was charged with stealing a bay mare belonging to Robert Webb, a general dealer at Hackney. The latter took the mare to Smithfield yesterday se'n night, but did not sell it. The prisoner, who offered to procure a customer, walked home with him, and saw him turn the mare to graze in the London field. On Thursday the mare was missed, and the prisoner being apprehended at a public-house on Thursday night, the animal was found in a cart at the door. He was remanded. LAMBETH. Miss Selina St infield, the daughter of the principal engineer in her Majesty's dockyard at Portsmouth, who had been charged at this Court, on Monday last, with having made two attempts to commit self-murder by swallowing laree doses of arsenic, was brought from Lamb( tit Workhouse for final examination before Mr. Henry. The prisoner, on her last examination, attributed her attempts at self-destruction to her having been obliged in the first instance to leave her home in consequence of her father getting married to a second wife, and refusing to contribute to her support ; and she herself not being able to earn a subsiste.,ce at stay stitching, at which she had been employed. Her brother, on the contrary, de clared she and her sister had left Portsmouth with two common sagabonds, and had subsequently been leading dissolute lives in town, and that this was the real cause of his father withdrawing his support from them. He (the son) however undertook to see his father on the subject, and the prisoner, instead of being committed to prison, was sent to Lambeth Workhouse. Mr. Steel, residing at 19, Brunswick-street, Stamford street, deposed that Miss Stanfield had occupied an apartment of his house for fifteen or sixteen months, and while there had conducted herself with strict pro priety. Her father paid her rent of ss. a week, but ul timately withheld it, in consequence of some represen tation, or rather misrepresentation of her conduct by a lady, " a friend to the family." The prisoner, while at his house, used sometimes to work at dressmaking with his (witness's) daughter, and at other times at stay stitching, and, in so far as he had observed, seemed anxious to earn a living. Mrs. Garrett, at whose house the prisoner more re cently lived, also gave her a good character for pro priety of conduct. Mr. Henry Stanfield, the prisoner's brother, who is an engineer, here said that, in accordance with his promise on Monday last, he had visited his father in reference to the present charge against his sister, and had received his assurance that whatever the law compelled him to pay for the prisoner's support, he should do so, or he should be perfectly satisfied to pay any sum his Worship should, under the circumstances, consider sufficient for her ' maintenance. The brother went on to say, that, not withstanding all that had been said by Mr. Steel and Mrs. Garrett, he was sorry to say the prisoner's habits were far from moral or proper, and in confirmation of this, he begged to hand to the magistrate for his perusal two letters he had selected out of a number of a similar description. Mr. HENRY, after looking at the letters, desired that they might be handed to the prisoner. This was done, and Miss Stanfield acknowledged she knew the writers of both, and that one was addressed to her sister and the other to herself. Mr. HENRY remarked that the contents of the letters went to show that their conduct was not strictly proper. He, however, suggested, as the best course, that the pri soner should be allowed ten shillings a week by the father for her support. Her brother said that this sum should be carefully con tributed; and, after much crimination and recrimination between brother and sister, the latter agreed to go back to Mrs. Garrett's for the present. SOU? HW ARK. _ . Wm. Giles, the man who has been for some time prac ising the most gross imposition, by pretending to be dumb, owing to his having his tongue severed from his mouth by a ship's crew who mutinied while he was on board, was brought up for re-examination, on the charge of committing a violent assault on a young man named John Kearns, the particulars of which have already ap peared. The prisoner had been an inmate of St. John's Work house, into which be was admitted in the early part of last week, having been found in a destitute condition in that parish, and supposed to be deaf and dumb. As the parochial authorities were anxious to discover where he had been previously living, he was accordingly taken from the workhouse en Saturday last, and on the way to the Vino-yard he got into a violent rage, seized the officer who was conducting him to the place, and attempted to throttle him. A sailor named Kearns, on interfering, was attacked by the prisoner, and rendered insen,ible by a blow of a stone. In the course of the examination on Wednesday last, the circumstance of the prisoner being suspected as a most gross imposter was mentioned by a Mr. Owen, the landlord of the Yorkshire Grey, in Thames-street, to which house he was sent by the French Consul, under the supposition that he was a native of Boulogne, and that his loss of speech arose from his ton~.ue being cut out in order to prevent the pos sibility of his giving information relative to a mutiny in a vessel on board of which he was at the time, and which was afterwards scuttled. In the course of Mr. Owen's narration, he stated that when the prisoner was sent from his house, over to Boulogne, it was ascertained that although the prisoner, by signs, had intimated that he was a native of that place, the authorities there discovered that he did not belong to that country, and the fact of his having the perfect use of his tongue was also proved beyond all question. For the purpose of putting the fact beyond all doubt, the Magistrate (Mr. Cottingham) directed that the pri soner should be remanded until this day, for tLe purpose of giving the captain of the City of Boulogne steam vessel an opportunity of attending to give evidence of the fact of the prisoner being gifted with the faculties of hearing and of speech. Yesterday Capt. Tune, of the above vessel, accordingly attended, and up to his arrival the prisoner still assumed to be deprived of the loss of speech, and when he was led from the cell into the Court, on seeing the captain of the City of Boulogne•, he held down his head and tried to conceal his face, but said not a wo:d. Mr. TRAILL, addressing Capt. Tune, asked him if he had ever seen the p r i soner b e f ore ? The captain said he had, and that by di rec ti on o f th e French consul he took the prisoner to Boulogne on the 27th of July W i t ,' that a.: that period he was supposed to be deaf and d uo) ; and a native of France. On the passage the pril e d continued to be mute, and upon his arrival he was hall over to the French authorities. The prisoner was here observed to smile, buf he 6 61 remained silent. Captain Tune proceeded to state that, on the daY lowing that on which he delivered the prisoner int o ti ' hands of his supposed countrymen, and had given dlr.', a relation of his sufferings in being deprived o f °2 , tongue, he (the captain) attended an examinatioa, during which it was discovered that the prisoner the perfect use of his tongue, for, on being Ihreatenelt: with being sent to the galleys, he became quite , : 13° 0) rageous, and abused all present, announcing hims elf s . Englishman, and that he had committed no o ffenr , against the laws of France. On this discoveoy th e Pte, soner was returned to his (the captain's) charge ag" - 0 and he brought him back to London, where he landed, and he heard no more of him until he Was be prised of his being in custody at this Court, and t hal 0 still assumed to be deaf and dumb ; that his name W 0 not Giles, but Sharpe, and that from his dialect be ll supposed to he a Scotchman. Mr. TRAILL, to the prisoner—Now you have b elra Captain Tut,e's statement of what occurred at Bou lo g ne' what have you to say? go t The prisoner, forte first time, then gave anaple4 oo of his having the power of speech by saying, got nothing to say, your Worship." Mr. TRAILL—Then there is no truth in the eiref t stances you made known by signs, of your tongue al..aj been cut out by the crew of a ship which was after scuttled ? Pi ironer —None, Sir. theth Mr. TRAILL—What could have been your object; no . in practising such a gross deception on people, an t ' r,d l tendißg, also, to he a Frenchman ? Prisoner -- I °; did it, Sir, to see a little of the world. I have France.—(Laughter.) t he Mr. TRAILL—How long have been assuming . 6 . 0 t character of a deaf and dumb man ? Prisoner' as some time, Sir. I was let into the secret by a vioo s o in Scotland, who taught me to put away my tonguld that people might think I had none in my mouth. ca ; not spoken a word for we eks until I got over to Fran b s and, thinking they were going to punish me, I thug it best to announce my country. sot Mr. TRAILL—Where do you come from ; what Par.? Scotland, for you speak in a strong Scotch d ial lit Prisoner—l am not a Scotchman at all, your W° 1.5 1 ,0 I am au Irishman, and was born in the county of Att e ", but have been a long while in Scotland, in Ah e 'hp, and in Glasgow. Do let me go this time, your VOr * ,, - 1 and I shall never be deaf and dumb again as I ° ll - live. Mr. Corner, the clerk to the guardians of St. - o n o parish, trusted the magistrate would not let the Prig e r escape punishment, for although it was not deem 0 pedient by the parochial authorities to go to the el „,P e i g ht of a prosecution, still they were desirous that h e 0• be summarily dealt with for the violence be ban do hibited in the workhouse , where he had sma sh " - iron windows, and actually armed himself with a° 00 scraper, and threatened to hew down any Per B°ll approached him. *A I Mr. TRAILL said that he never knew of a mor e ibr t he impostor. He then imposed fines on the prisone r , . ia ." at , assault and the wilful damage he c o mm itted, se e T o est , fault he was sentenced to t wo mon th s ' imPri s-- ,4 and at the expiration of that p er i o d h e wa s to fin o lfor ties for his good behaviour, or be further imprisa° six calendar months. The prisoner Is as then locket up THAMES. _ _ .00 0 MURDEROUS ASSAULT ON A POLICEMAN.'" j. „)o' DAiscoll, an Irish coal-whipp e r, was b roug ht beit•ot i es Ballantine, charged with co m m itti ng a ve ry aggli i $' assault on a police • constable n ame d Bl a ke, Na• who is at present in the London Hospital.
