In November last an extraordinary seneateou was created in" Belgium by the announcement that Count Ilippolyte Visa do Became • and .his wife, both ro sitiine at Bury, in the pe u ea lee o f Hainaut, had been arrested on the cha", go of fleeing murdered the brother of the latter by means of poison forcibly ari mietis.ered to him after :dinner at their' chatesu on the 20ih of that mouth. The investigations of j t eeiee ended in both the accused being committed for trial. Since then the interest felt in. the case has risen to the highs-st pitch in Belgium, and has even even led to Preece. The rat,k of the pirties, end the very_ ezera ordinery manner iu whieh the murder is alleged to have beet, committed, contieue; io feet, to meke the Case worthy of aelmi ',lion amongst the most renew - liable of the Cazoes Ceii•ires. The trial commenced hefore the Court of Assizes of Monti on Tuesday, and was continued on the following day. We have received the following account of these days' proceedings, The Court was crowded to excess, and the excitement caused by the trial amongst all classes tif the population was strikinely great. The Countess de Boearn was first placed in the dock;" she . was dressed - iii• black, and is a' handsome woman. liar husband was next placed near her; he is till, good-looking and of aristocratic bearing. His voice, it Wes noticed, resembled that of a . boy of 15. Both the accused, in answer to the President, stated their names.; said their age was 32, and their station in life that of proprietaires. The indictment was then read. It set forth that the principal' accused belongs to one of the first families of the province of Hainaut, and that in 1842 he married at Peruwelze .Madetnoiaelle Fougnies, daughter of a retired grocer. This female had at brother, named Gustave, of weak health; and from the firet the Count, it appeared, had formed the hope of inheriting-the for tune to which he was entitled, at consulted a physician. as to his chances . of Jiving. " On the 20th November. last, 'Gustave weht to dit!te With "hisesistee and brether-ia la* ein their.. atlitteentalgithesiaatia, and after dinner `ttereealrfered des viii MnitigeforentVlC "Proper hal been on foot for his marriage with a Mdlle. de budzeele, and after his body was discovered the Countess ordered a domestic to go and inform those two coquines, Madame de Dudzeele and her daughter, that he had died suddenly of apoplexy. But, on examination of the body, contusions and screeches were found on the cheek and nose; and on thu cheek, the tongue, in the throat, and tho stomach craces of a corrosive liquid were discovered. The Count having been subjected to an examination, it was aecertained that one of his fingers bore the mark of having been bitten, and that his nails had a slight stain ,it red, as if of blood caused by a scratch on flesh. An etittipsis of the contents of deceaeed'a stomach proved .itat he had been poisoned by means of nicotine. It was further ascertained that the Count during six months had spat much time in studying the qualities of this poison, and that, a few days bi fore the death of Gustave, be had been in possession of two phials of it, which could nut afterwards be found. The Countess, ou being , questioned, formally accused her husband of having caused the death of her brother, and after a while !he Count himself admitted' having distilled the nicotine. Toe intik:Uncut went on to show that, in marrying Mdlle. Fougnies, the Count had not obtained the fortune he had expec ied, as he only received with her 2,0001. a-year from her father; his own income was 2,4001. But, noewith stending their resources were so small, they lived in grand style, anti tree Count kept a mistress. lie bor rowed about 40,000 r. from his notary, which have not yet been paid. 10 1845, the father of his wife died, and left her 5,000 f. a-) ear; but their expenses continued to iucrease, and they were obliged to make sales of the pro perty from which the wife's income was derived. They, however, still remained considerably in debt, and were re ducal to such extremity that the Count was obliged to oledge some of his wife's jewels - for. 400 f. in the Mont de Eif f at Brusselh Their only hope of salvation c - rom ruin was the early death of the brother without heirs, but this was destroyed by his avowed intention of marrying. They attempted to prevent the mar riage, and the Countess wrote two letters to her brother, calumniating his intended wife. Their efforts, however, failed. It was then that the Count began to study the qualities of poisonous plants, and es pecially of nicotine. He made attempts to produce the latter, but, not having immediately succeeded, sought the advice of a professor of chemistry. After ten days and two nights labour, he, in November last succeeded in making for himself two Oaths of nicotine. A few days later he, in answer to his wiie's questions, admitted.that he bad been making that Poison, and said that he would take care not to tail " to do the business of Gustave." On the 20th Gustave arrived at the ci u.ean in the morning, and the Countess passed the day with him without informing him of the danger he was in. At dinner she, contrary to her usual custom, sent her eldest daughter and the governess to dine in the latter's room. She also sent away her coach man on some frivolous pretext. She ordered her maid, 'rho was to wait at table, to retire after the second service. This servant, Emaleance, having gone at dusk to the dining-loom to inquire if lights were required, was answered, No, fee" . both by the Countess sue her husband. Shortly after another servant heard Gustave cry fur help trOm the diniegal2M.altd exclaim, " Oh! pardon, Rippolyte I" Al'tnoat at the same moment she ,acv the Countess leave the dining-room, and close the kitchen door, so us apparently to prsveut the cries from being heard. The indictment then dxelt on the fact that as the poison must have been forcibly administered to deceased, it was impossible that it could have been done by only one person. It next asserted that the Count and Countess were the only persons in the dining-room at the time the cries of deceased were heard. It quoted a letter written secretly in the prison on the 12th March last by Bocarn to a friend at Paris, in which ho charged his wife with having committed the crime, and then attempting to throw the whole guilt on him. It stated that he had made the same assertion to the gaoler. The indictment further proceeded to state that after the murder the Countess had carefully caused to be waeh , d some of the clothes of deceas e d and of her hue bend; that she had had his crutches (he was lame) wuabed, and afterwards burned; and that she had also burned his waistcoat and cravat. She, moreover, had caused the flour of the dining-1.41w to be carefully washed. The indictment concluded by stating that she had declared that if she had peepare4: or facilitated the poisoning eho had only done so because she had been ; forced by her husband. The President then Proceeded' to interrogate Madame Bocerme. After giving details of the pecuniary situation of her hasbend and herself, from which it a p peare d t h at t h ey were grealy embarrassed, she said that they did not live peppily together, hiving to his . licentious habits and his extravagance. lie had occupied himself, in 1850, with the culture of venomous plants and bad made her write fur different speohnens of them under assumed names. When she hal remarked that that was strange; he had struck her, and said that he did it to get them cheaper. lie had made her assid in preparing the nicotine. The President—Did he say what- it was for?—Yes, he said that it was to do the business, of Gustave. Did he afterwards say nothing spore? 'year, he said, "When I shall catch that scoundrel, I W il l not fail to do for him!" The accused then stated that her 'husband had tried his poisons on animals, and especially on a cat, which had died. The President —On the 20th November, the day on Which your brother died, did you n t inform yourhusband of his arrival ?—yes, and he said th at h e wou ld d o hi s business for him—that it was his last day.—(Sensation.) What did you say then ?—I said that it was abomin able—that he could not do such a thing., Eh !" be an swered me, "we are untortunate, will you make our child - tour ?

Ever .since our mar riage he had ealculated on inheriting the fortune of my brother, and had consulted physicians relative to the health of Gustave. Had Gustave announced his marriage to you two days before the 20th? —yes, air. I had at fi rst oppose d i t on acc not of his health, but seein g him resolved, I said nothing more. The accused then said that, on the 20th, she had sent the governess to dine in he r own roo m, because she, her husband, and her brother had some business affairs to discuss. Her children bad ceased to din e a t h er ta bl e some time before. The c,achman had been ordered to go on a message, not at din ner time, bit early in the morning. She and her husband had Partaken of the same dishes and wines as her brother. The conversation at table was friendly. She had no t passed some time before the dinner in conversation with her brother. She had ordered the servant Ere6:ance to retire after the second service, because business affairs had to be dis cussed. The dinner was ov er at helf- past four.

I had closed the doors be order not to hear tLe trieN. Ilippolyte opened the dear of the dining room; I heard the death-rattle in the throat—at least I fat.cied so. My husband told me to hritig hi m hi m some warm water. Emeracce then came -down stain', and I till her to go back to the children. She held one cf the children by the hand. I took the warm water to my husband, and then went to fetch some cold water. I did not see him drink. Did you not then wash your hands -with some black soar sir, it was a later period I did so. In what state was your husbaud?--Hi s h a i r wag in disorder, and he was greatly agitated. -• Did you ask him the cause of his agitation?—Yes, and he did not reply, but he made a singular gesture; his clothes smelt strongly.

Who was she is ?—lt waisilint:Oye't, wife she was doing. With what was Gust a v e poisoned?—With nicotine. Did you not throw Gustave on the ground? -1 (general she dd h movement ot koo what in the not. There was is dispute about a trust fired between Gustave and me. 1 will explain all the circumstances.

The victim cried out, " Pardon, Hippolyte. Your wife and three of the servants heard it. Your wife left the room in a few minutes after, at the moment when Gustave was expiring. Will you exe plain yourself on these points? —As 1 took some of the same drink I fell almost senseless on-the floor, and I heard the rattle of a person about to expire. But you do not tell us what was the reason of Gustave crying out ?—I do not know the -cause, having beep stupiGed by the drink. I think, however,' recollect that after my wife had poured us out the glasses at the side board, and Gustave had drunk, he exclaimed, " Sercei. corn! Hippolyte, help me!" What did your wife think she had given you?—Wis e —white wine. But nicotine is of a brown colour?—Not quite; and; moreover, there are some white wines that are very dark. •.•Is•there not a smell with nicotine which might have been discovered when ft was held to the nose?—She not smell to it. How is it that your wife does not give the same ac count of things as you do?—These circumstances are so extraordinary that I have always thought that no one would believe what was said. If Gustave had died in consequence of an act of im prudence, it would not be a crime; the law would only punish that involuntary act by a correctional penalty. Did you not say in your room that you was determined to get rid of Gustave?—l never said that. My wife dares net speak the truth; she is afraid. Did not your wife leave the room at the moment when Gustave uttered the cry ?—I heard not nothing but the death-rattle; I saw nothing around me; I was lying on the floor. Was Gustave dead when you left the dining-room?-- I cannot say. A glass of warm water was brought me, in order to nentralire tho effect of what I bad drunk. My wife is wrong in adopting the line of deteLce she has done, and in not relating things as they really took place. The President (to Mme. de Bocarme)—Prisoner, what have you to say to what has been jest stated ?—There is not a word of truth in it. Did you not take a bottle and two glasses , in order to give drink to your husba n d andlrother ?---No, there is not a word of truth in what has been stated.—(Great sensation.) You really did not use either a bottle or glasses ?—I did not. • But if Gustave had been poisoned by you in voluntarily ?—I should have said so long since. (Mme. de Bocarm‘ here clasped her bands together, and wept bitterly.) The President (to 1!.I. de Bocarm o—Will you explain to us where you got the bite which you had on your band? —I was probably bitten by Gustave, when I placed my band on his mouth to prevent him from crying out. That is a singular way of rendering assistance. You then wished that the unfortunate man should die with out receiving any help?—l wished to avoid the scandale of such an affair.—(Sensation.) In what part of the room did Gustave fall?---I am not quite certain, but I think it was between the door and the étagère. The President—We shall return again to theze facts, and now proceed to others. - Did you not say on the •23d February, to the witness Vanderskreuz, in the prison at Tourney, that you could speak of your wife without accusing her; that you threw. Gustave on the ground to give him poison, that you had given it to him twice, awl that the second time he fell on you?—He is mistaken; he misrepresents our conversation, without wishing to do so. The President thim reminded the prisoner of a letter which he had written to aM. Crans, residing, at N 0 ..,, Rue St. Fiyacinilie, at Paris, and in which he gave that gen tleman some commissions to execute for him. That let ter contained a note, clandestinely slipped into it, in which the prisoner begged that M. Berryer should not be engaged to plead for his wife. Ile said that the Countess, alter haring poisoned her brother, threw all the blame . on him. It would appear from this note, added the President, that your wile committed the crime intention ally, while you just now said the contrary.—The circum stances of the case are so extraordinary, that it iy perhaps impossible that the truth caa be our note adds, that the accusation of your wife is the consequence of the moral constraint in which she finds herself; what do you mean by this moral constraint? The whole contents, in fact, of your note represent the fact of the 20th November as a crime. The clothes whiethe deceased wore on the day when the crime SVSS committed were here shown to the priso ner, when ho explained that a great quantity of vinegar had bzen used to get out the stains of the nicotine; and vinegar had been also used to preient the effects of the poison. The President—But if you knew that Gustave was dead, the application of your vinegar was useless. You uttered cries when your servants approached, and you deplored the death of Gustave when, a few minutes before, you had dismissed Emerance in ill humour be cause she brought lights. Were not those lamenta tions feigned, particularly when it is known on what hostile terms you and Gustave were? The prisoner mad• no reply. The President—lt was probably for the purpose of playing la ceriledie, as your wife yesterday said. After some few other questions of no particular into rest, the Court adjourned to the next day. TIIIRD DAY. The President took the chair at 10 o'clock, and the prisoners were introduced. The interrogatory of &I. do Bocarmf was continued, The President—Your wife has said that yon wiped up the floor with two handkerchiefs; that you gate the poison, and the floor had been scraped; by whom was that done?—l do not know, Did you not burn one of your handkerchiefs?--I not. Did your wife burn one?--I am not aware that she did. The President—M. Stors in his report says, that the poison was poured into the mouth of the victim while he was lying on the ground, and this report agrees with the communication which you made in the prison at Tourney. What have you to say to this?—l could not have made the remsalts attributed to me; my wife being iunocent, could not have said that she had poured the poison into her brother's mouth. I have always declared that my wife was innocent. But did you not say that it was your wife who hed poured out the poison ?—Yes, I said that, but nothing else. But you contradict yourself. You maintain that your wife is innocent, and you agree that she twice poured out the poison.—l have always said that my wife poured out the poison without knowing it. The keeper of the prison to whom you made revela tions stated in your presence, when you were confronted with him, that you had told him that your wife had poured the poison into the mouth of the victim?—lf I told him so I stated what was not true.—(Agitation.) Why then did you not explain yourself better?—l said that I should wait to explain myself before the court of justice, because I felt indignant at seeing that I was made to talk while some one was at the same time placed to listen to what I said. Did you not say to the same gaolor that you had taken war m water after having swallowed the poison in order to make you vomit; and did you not make a si m il ar remark to the brigadier of gendarmery 2—No, I did lict s ay so; my remarks have been incorrectly report e d . Did you not speak to these persons of the bottle and the two glasees which were mentioned for the first time yesterday?-1 did not. You wrote to your wife when in the p rison at Tourney, and after inquiring after her health and whether she had any money, you add the w0rd8;.....6 Do not reply to me any more.' and which word_s you signed with a cross. Had you written to her before? —No, ask for any answer. Sir ; awl I did not That, however, is not what you said in your letttr. What did you mean by with a cross ?—I do not exactly know; perh a p s sad situation in which was only meant to express the we were placed. The President (to the female prisoner)—llas your husband written Wto you since you were in the prison a t Tourney ?—No, Sir . ill 2 0 t h you explain h ew you passed the day of , the N°Ymber ?—lt Wes about seven o 'd oc k that my bus band came to announce to me the arrival of Gustave., I got up at nine o'clock. We breakfasted et ten, and v“) I afterwards conversed together. When did you again see Gustave ?—At diviner. How do you explain the absence of your servants and your children?—My children were usually in the room of their governess. The male prisoner, rising quickly, here said—My 1 , ir e was in the habit of sending away the servants when any I persons dined with us, in order to allow a greater tree dom of conversation. The President—You are not under interrogation, Lydio Fouguies ; state why Einerance was tent to her room?—She was in the habit of going ther e . When she came to light the lamps, did you not say later ?—We —We did not usually later, li g h t the lungs until it was altogether dark. Your husband accuses you of having poured the i poson into Gustave's mouth.—(M .de B ocarm6 here rose to speak.) Sit down and be silent.

The bankrupt, described as Thomas Britten, of Suf f olk-lane, Cannon-street, wine merchant, came up fer his last examination. The balance-sheet, commencing on the let of January, 1850, and ending on the 22d of March, 1851, shows the following items:—Creditors, 5,5261.; ditto, holding security, 9,0381, ; profits, 124/4, commissions, 72/.; legacy, 5001.; debt ors , 944; property, 1,5381.; property held by 'creditors, 2,4641.; trade ex penses, 6364; house and personal expenses, 1,1761.; in terest, 427/4 losses, 1,3791.; deficiency, on the Ist of January, 1850, 7,4991._ Mr. Sowell appeared for the assignees, and Mr. Law rence supported the bankrupt, who passed without op position, and in eons( queues of the services rendered by the bankrupt in realizing the estate, and with the con sent of the assignees, bis Honour ordered 2U. to be paid to him out of the estate, as a remuneration. (Before Mr. Commissioner 11oLuovp.) IN BE TREGO. The bankrupt, described, as William Trego, of Cole man-street, in the city of London, builder, came up for his last examination, but in consequence of a large dis crepancy in the accounts it was again adjourned. IN RE PEACOCK. The bankrupt, Richard Peacock, of No. 1, Ladbroke grove, is the county of Middlesex, plumber and glazier, came up on the question of certificate. Mr. Morgan and Mr. Gant supported; and Mr. Link later on behalf of the assiguee,, and Mr. Williams a creditor for 7001., opposed. , Joseph Miller, examined by Mr. LINILATER—Lived five minutes' walk from th e b an k rupt ' s prem i ses.

Did not send a horse and cart for that purpose. Never had directions from the bankrupt to send one. Kuew nothing about the removal of some varnish, oils, &e. By Mr. MorteaN—Always heard that the bankrupt Was an honest hard-workiog mart, and that was his re putation in the neighbourhood. Mr. LINK LATER, in addressing the Court, said that upon the last examination the assignees had failed to establish a direct removal of the goods, he therefore must apply himself to the general circumstances of the case. Mr. Williams had mare right to complain than the assignees as to the general conduct of the bankrupt, as the whole of his debt (700 t) was for money lent at a moderate rate of interest, and he thought the bankrupt , was carrying on a prosperous business. The bankrupt, however, had always been trading with a load upon his shoulders, and a large deficiency was accounted for by sundry estimated expenses. His books were badly kept, and there had been a deal of guess-work in th? accounts. 5001. of his expenses were vouched, and 3lOl. Ives (messed at.

As regarded the general features of the case, there were two grounds upon which the Court was called upon to suspend the bankrupt's certifies?' In alluding to the bill transaction it appeared that the , bankrupt gave a bill to Mr. Chapman after the bank ruptcy, and then it was ante-dated; thus an endeavour was made to impose upon the Court, and to make that appear truth whi c h was untruth.

The President. here read a passage from the report of M. stns, which declares that the organs of Gustave Pougnies, when subjected to analysis. had led to the con clusion that a large quantity of nicotine had been intro duced into his body, anti had profoundly injured the organs ; b u t, th e v i negar w hi ch was adminis tered m a y have produced some effect on them. The examination of the witnesses was then com menced; After the two first had been heard, their testimony being o f no interest, M. Heugbaert, the jade d ' in struation of Tetiensy, who visited the chal• teau of Ililsenont, on November =2l, was introduced. He stated that, on hi, arrival, he asked to see the body of the dteessed.

When be first saw the hoards of the dining•roorn, tow in court, they smelt strongly cf vinegar. The two prisoners were per feetly. calm when he arrived, but the male prisoner he cense eaCusel.atterwards, and did not account sa.thea c . torily for the death of his brother-in-law. During the investigation, the connt.wrote a note, which the witness handed ep to the President, and which was conceived nearly in these terms "My dear wife, ask the examining magistrate to allow Ton to send me news of your health. Row do you since you saw G onzales a o n cc d ep o y u ' r y l o it u t r le sel g f irlsl s it il l o o w ng are they? Why do you display such bad sentiments tosser is me?

Rend the passage 72 of the Paroissien Remain, verse 13, and follow the advice you will fiud there. It is that which marks cut my route—let it do so for yours also. Lot ns take the same path, and we shall find ourselves safe and sound." The President asked the examining magistrate what the verse referred to wos?—The magistrate replied that rss , it-was-to-the erect that "every kingdom divided against - itself will soon perish, and that every house divided , will soon fail down." —The magistrate then went on to say that i n the confrontation which took place between the accused during the examination Madame de BouarraCi seemed to him to speak the truth when she declared herself innocent of the crime. Her husband replied, whenever be was told that she accused him "'Fell! let her accuse me, but let her explain, if she car, to justice how the thing took place." Questioned by the advocates of the female prisoner as to her morality, the examining magistrate declared that he had made investigations respecting her past character, and believed it to be irreproachable. When she began to accuse her husband, he said she wept a great deal, and exclaimed, " What a misfortune that I cannot defend myself 'Without accusing my husband. On the other hand, M. de Bocarme said, " I cannot defend myself without compromising my wife!"

To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu rance Company Is established. the true rate of Premum for Fire Insurance can only be ap , ,roached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted c n, or systematically applied. Whatever he the nominal rate. the bonus or return periodically to the insured will determine the tree Premium equitably payable, as security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer is largely interested in this Guestion, and will consult his Interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Oitice will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, from time to tire, adopt such rates of Premium as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange ments as regards tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fitly per cent. of the nett excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have been in force for three years. Insurances against boss by Fire are effected by this Company upon every description of Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause.

Unreasanable prone are complaining grievously of the present. state business they say they cats sell nothing, and get no orders ; others are going ou as if trade WAS at its best and doing more than their sha:c. Owe who are ding nothing, find variou , causes for their paucity of trade. Ose says it was Os, repel of the corn-laws ; another says it is the Great Exhibition ; a Vint it is the Popish tiguression ; a f era i It is the. Kafir war; a fifth that it is the s ate o. France; and so they ruts the gaititlet through fir')' alleged causes, while the r4tht out is kit out of view altogether. Giles Go a-head built twelve iatuses, trom which he was to drive his income, but being a tv , ele ye it witnout letting ono iiou,e, lie considered himself a loser of six handre I pounds. London hal overbuilt itself, to many people lived in one house. Everbody took lodg: rigs to save t xes thew ndow duty and twenty other cau,es passed througliGiles's. mind but a neigt.bour took the Jibe: ty Ills attention to the real one—they were ten pounds per annual too much rent. Wets took the hint, thought four hundred and eighty pounds was a better inc.)me than nothin:, lowered the rent, and let them all imme tiatel. - . Besides that, he found his four hundred and eighty pounds went quite as far as he once made six hundred go. And the real cause of a large class suff, ring for want of trade is, that they strut le agalnst the change of system, they will stick for large profits, and the day for large profits is gone, by, — Since. E. MOSES aril SON - s•-t the example of trading with large capital, and throwing all Ake advantages of that capital into the hands if the public by adopting small profits, it has opened the eyes of the public to their true interest. Those who attempt trade upset the old system gradually lose their customers ; but let any one step into the Establishment of E. MOSES and SON, will they see anything like a paucity of business there? No. On the con trary, hundreds of hands are actively employed. there is an immense stock of the finest idothing In the world constantly going off, and as rapidly being replace and all arising from their being content with small profits and turning out first-rate articles forty per cent. loss that used to he barge t under the old eystem. It is nei ther the Papal Aggression, nor the repeal of the Corn-laws, nor the Great Exhibition, nor the Kafir war. nor the state of France, that makes business with some people bad. It is the folly of at empting to keep up the system of large profits. Trade has had a shock, but it Was electric, and should have been, and would have been, benefi cial to all alike, had all acted properly; but those only who, at once, like E. MOSES and SON, adopted the system of small profits on goad articles, and large returns, reaped the advantage of the change, and the public will stand by them who set the example.

Tiger, - 11 new steamer of 400-horse power, navigated to Portsmouth from Woolwich some time ago, and now lying in the old basin, got up her steam yester chy to try her engines. She is a fine capacious ves sel, but, as we have before steted, has the Sidoti's propensity to list over ; indeed, a short time af er her arrival, the coal being`un.qually divided in her bunkers, ittere - wris said to be much danger at one time of her falling right over. In cons( quence of this she has re ceived extensive alterations, her coal-bunkers, which came up on each side to the under part of her weather deck, have been lowered, and her main-deek ma-?e flush fore a nd aft ; two port holes have been cut about the mi , iNhip part of her main-deck, and two heavy guns will be removed to these ports from her weather-deck, whereby her top weight will be decreased. She is rigged and will be tried at Spithead shortly. The Americin frigate, St. Lawrence, Commodore Sand., was towed out of Smthampton waters early yes terday morning, by the Echo. When off the Kicker point a westerly breeze sprung up, the steamer was cast off, and the frigate made sail. In passing through Spit head anchorage the St. Lawrence saluted the flig of Admiral Sir Btaden Capel, K C. 8., with thirteen guns, which the Victory returned with a similar number. She proceeds to Cherbourg. The Turkish w ar-steamer the Feizi Mari, with Ad miral Mustafas' flag flying from her main, arrived yes terday morning, from Woolwich, and anchored near the other Turkish vessels at Spithead. The squadron will now proceed on their voyage home to Constantinople. The anchor-hoy built for Bermuda, and to be called the Devunport, was lauucheci from the masthouse-slip at D woH p o rt, yesterday morning, and will be ready for sea about the middle of the present month. PoRTSMOUTit, JUNE 3.—The Devastation steam sloop, Commander C. Y. Can:lob...ll, adjusted her core passes to day, and will go to Spithead on Thursday.

Had you not previously met your husband at the bottom of the staircase, with Err - atice, and did he not say—`• Gustave is ill! Vinegar! vinegar !"—Yes. Did be speak to you in a low tone or voice?—No. Did he say, in a low tone, " Cry for help!"—lt is poi , aible that be did. In answer to wirer questions, the avused stated what she had done to remove the traces of the nicotine on the clothes and floor. Her husband had confessed to her that he bad ccmmitted a crime, but suppli sated her not to betray him. He had also said that his only fear of being discovered arose from the scratches he had - made on the face of deceased. As to the nicotine, he said that he was perfectly tran (pi!, as there was no means of discovering its presence. He had wished to show her,the corpse of her brother, but she had refused,notwitliganding his violence. All that she had consented to do was to burn or wash certain things which were stained with the nicotine. Her husband had feared that he would be arrested, and had said to her, " If any . one tells you that I have made a confession do not believe it; justice often employs that trick to obtain evidence. I will take, if necessary, two celebrated ad vocates of Paris, and I am sure that nothing can happen to rue, as they can discover nothing, for nicotine leaves no trace behind it." This concluded the interrogatory of the female pri son,er, and the Court rose. SECOND DAY. The President took the chair at half-past nine, and continued the interrogatory of Mina. de Bocarmti, The President—You said yesterday that your husband bad told you •to look at the victim and see whether the nicotine had run from the month!—Yes, he did so, but I did not obey him, and he looked at me very savagely. (M. de Bocarme smiled at this reply.) 3 Did you not send for a medical man after the death of Gustave?—Yes, Sir, I did so by desire of my husband. Was not that done your jouer la comtdie r—Probably it ;was. (Madame de' 40earm here a peered to be much inabiltrifaited, end - 14E44A: op'htiv gratifff in great agitation.) , ' • Did the doctor remark that there were symptoms of poisoning?—No, Sir. Did not your husband take some warm water in order to make him vomit ?—Yes, Sir. The President then ordered M. de 13ocarm6 to stand up, when the prisoner said, in reply to questions put to him, that when he married Mlle. Fouguies, he was igno rant that the family had brought about the marriage through ambition. He was to have received 2.000 f. a year from his father-in-law, but the first year was not paid. In May, 1850, his pecuniary position was very embarrassed; he bad pledged some diamonds at Brussels for 400 r. Ile had money due to him to the amount of 1 104,000 f. He owed 14,0004 to a notary for money bor rowed. The President—Did you not call on an avocet at Brussels in October, 1850, to know whether, having debts to the amount of 300,000 francs, you could not by means of a fictitious sale get rid of those liabilities?-1 wished to know whether, having such debts, I could leave my property to say children. The President (to Mine. de Booarm6)—l have put questions to your husband, founded on what you said in your preliminary examination—has he given a true, answer ?—No, Sir, he has not stated things as they ac tually took place.—(Sensation.) —What I have before stated was the truth. To further questions put by the President, M. de Bocdrire stated that he had never coveted the property of any one; he was not at at ail tempted by the fortune of Gustave. _He might be reproached with pro digality but not with avarice. His reason for consulting a medical man as to the probable duration of the life of Gustave, was that he had been requested to do so by au aunt of his brother-in-law. He had never used any violence towards his wife, nor had he ever struck her with his fists. He had had a-very angry discussion with her one day, but he had never'struck her. (The female prisoner here shed tears.) The President—Did you ever seize your wife by the throat?—No, Sir. Did not Mme. Chereguefosse tell you that if you did not change your conduct you would come to the seal fold ?—No, Sir. Did you not, on one occasion, drag your wife along the ground in the garden?—No, Sir; what took place was this. My wif, one day spoke to a domestic in the Passage, and ordered him to go and polish the floor in her bedroom. I objected to this, and she put herself into a violent passion. In reply to further questions put by the President, ho admitted that he had bad criminal connexion with a girl named C‘lestine Logrin, by whom he had a child. lie had never compelled his wife to receive this fruit of his illicit connexion at the chateau. She willingly con sented to do so. The President (to Mine. de Bocartr6)—Were you not compelled to receive this child?—Yes, Sir, he told me that uakris I did so he would have a separation. From the further replies of the prisoner, it appeared thst ho had caused his wife, but without violence, to agn a letter by which she consented to receive the child in qUestion._ . During this part of the interrogatory, Mme. do Bo carni,i covered her face with her hand, in order to screen herself from the view of the auditory. The female prisoner, in reply to a further question of the prisoner, declared that sne had been compelled to sign the letter. 'The interrogatory then turned on the chemical studies of M. de Bocarra. He said that since 1842 he had not occupied himself with chemical experiments, and had got rid of his instruments, but he had since studied poisonous plants. The President—What was your object for so doing? —I wished to go and rejoin my father in America, to carry on business in such plants. It was for that reasoa that I put myself in communication with some dealers at Ghent. The President—Did you not cause your wife to write to these dealers, and sign your name?—Yes; I thought I might do so, as she was my wife. My object in study ing the nicotine was to discover the best quality of to bacco, which was proved by the quantity of nicotine it contained. I thought that study might be useful to my father, who cultivated tobacco in America. The President—ln the division of property which you lately made with your brother you expressed a wish to retain the chateau of Bitremont—that did not look as if you had any intention of quitting Belgium.—l wished to leave my property here to my wife and children. Did you not purchase, in May, 1850, the chemical works of M. Orfila and if. Reynault?—l did, Sir, in order to study the qualities of poisonous plants. In reply to further questions from the President, he said that he had entered into correspondence with a cop persmith at Ghent, in order to procure some vessels of which he was in want. Re had, on that occasion, as sumed the name of Bkan, under the idea that ho might obtain the articles cheaper than if he had given his real name. Ho had consulted M. Lobens on the manner of extracting poison from plants, and requested him to give him some lessons in chemistry. M. Lobens knew him by the name of B‘ran, as the coppersmith had introduced him to that gentleman by that name, not knowing him by any other. The President—How much nicotine did you extract from the quantity of tobacco which you purchased? —About seven phials full. For what purpose did you intend that nicotine?—lt was the result of my experiments. I ask you to what purpose you intended it?—l have already told you, Sir. No. You have not done so. I now ask you where you put those phials?—l put them by. For what purpose, I again ask, did you i n t en d th em ? —With a view t o t h e trade in tobacco. In reply to further questions, the prisoner said that he bad placed the phials in a cupboard; that he some times-carried the key in his pocket, and at other times left it on the mantel-piece of the saloon; that he was not aware whether any one knew where he had put those phials, but it was possible they might, and that he had emptied them when the apparatus was cleaned. The President here observed, that the prisoner, on his preliminary examination before the examining ma gistrate, had spoken of only three phials, whereas he now mentioned seven. The President—You told your servants, while you were extracting this nicotine, that you were making Eau de Cologne, and charged them not to speak of it, as you might be fined for distilling without having a patents. Did you not also tell your wife that you wished to get rid of Gustave Fougnies?—lt is an infamous calumny. I cannot conceive how my wife can maintain such an as sertion.
