Last night the lately-elected Sheriffs of London and Middlesex, John Humphrey and Richard Peele, Esqrs., gave their inauguration dinner at the hall of the Tallow Chandlers' Company, Dowgate-hill, of which the first named gentleman is a member. The room in which the company sat down to dinner was ornamented with a va riety of banners and other decorations, and the entertain ment itself was served up in that costly style for which all civic festivals are celebrated. The Lord Mayor (Sir J. Key), as usual upon such occasions, took the chair, and at the conclusion of the dinner proposed the health of the King, and the rest of the Royal Family, which was re ceived with applause. The health of the new Sheriffs was also drunk with great enthusiasm. A variety of other toasts were proposed, among which were the Lord Mayor, the Lord Mayor elect, the Bank of England, and the East India Company. The Lord Mayor, in returning thanks, observed, that he felt great pleasure in having ecjoyed the confidence of his fellow-citizens during the period in which he had occupied the civic chair, and he trusted that when he appeared before them as a candidate for a more impor tant situation, he should still meet with their support. Mr. H. Palmer, in the name of the Directors of the Bank of England, thanked the company for the manner in which they had received the toast of prosperity to that institu tion. The affairs of the Bank, he said, were now before the public, and he believed it was an institution the best calculated to uphold the credit of the country—(Applause, and cries of " No, no")—under proper regulations and management. He therefore trusted, that the good sense of the public would prevent the interests of that establish ment from being sacrificed. Mr. Mastertnan next re turned thanks on behalf of the East India Company, and Sir Peter Laurie, in a short speech, acknowledged the honour lie had received in having his health drunk. The festivity of the evening was greatly heightened by the per formances of a band of music, which was stationed i❑ the gallery of the Hall ; and by the execution of some popular glees by a party of professional singers. The company did not separate till a late hour. BOROUGH OF DUDLEY. Mr. Campbell, the King's Counsel, has been canvassing the electors of this new borough during the last week, and having received a decided majority of promises, is sure of his return. This ancient town, formerly represented, is newly enfranchised by the Reform Bill, and entitled to send one Member to the Reformed Parliament. It is the centre of the Midland Coal and Iron District, containing about 23,000 inhabitants, and a constituency of about 600 ten-pound voters. It was formerly ruled by the Tories with "a rod of iron," but the public spirit of the middle classes has redeemed it from that base dominion. The Anti-Reformers have " put up" Sir Horace St. Paul, the present Member for Rridport, an inveterate opponent of the great Ministerial measures; the Honourable Baronet, balancing between " the bird in the hand and the bird in the hush," has not yet made his election between the old and new borough, but there is no doubt that lie will be rejected in both places. Mr. Campbell's reception was in the highest degree popularllitiflattering, and he is sup ported by all classes of the Reformers, moderate and ra dical. On the completion of his canvass, he issued a most excellent address—a " Reply" to the objections of his op ponents, and which leaves no doubt of the " verdict" of the electors. The Learned Gentleman appears to con sider " cholera not contagious." Although not an Anti- Reformer, he is apparently an anti-contagionist—having, in the course of his canvass, entered many houses visited by the disease, canvassed and shook hands with cholera patients in various stages of the complaint ; but after passing a week in the borough, he has left in perfect health. His party say that he has all the premonitory symptoms of success. LONDON MARKETS. PRICE OF BREAD. The highest price of Bread in the Metropolis is 934 d. for the 41b. Loaf.

PETERSEURGII, SEPT. 15.-His Majesty the Em peror arrived on the let (130 i) of this month at Pozchow, but only stopped to change horses. On the 30th of July died, at Moscow, her Highness Anna Matwejewna, Dowager Queen of Imeritia, in the 67th year of her age ; and on the ]st of August the me tropolitan patriarch performed the funeral ceremonies in presence of the Governor-General and all the authorities of the capital. Her son, Major-General Constantine, Prince of Imeritia, was present at her death, and was a witness of the general regret at the death of a princess who was equally distinguished by her virtues in her former sta tion and in private life. On the 26th of last month the concluding ceremony of the inauguration of the relics of the pious Mitrophanes, first Bishop of \Voronesch, was celebrated. After the Liturgy, performed by Bishop Antonius, and the chanting of the hymn for his Majesty the Emperor and the Imperial Family, the Bishop presented to the Chamberlain, Bibi kow, the portrait of the venerable Bishop, which, during divine service, had been suspended over the relics, and re quested his Excellency to drliv,r the portrait to the Em peror for the Bishop and his faithful flock. The city was illuminated in the evening. On the following day, after mass, M. Von Bibikow gave a dinner to the poor, 2,000 in number. BERLIN, SEPT. 25.—Lord Minto has arrived here from London, and Count Francis Poloski, Chamberlain to the Emperor of Russia, from Breslaw. Private letters from Konigsberg say that a very impor tant change is going to be made in the organization of the courts of justice in the kingdom of Prussia. By the be ginning of next year a separate court of appeal for East and West Prussia, Lithuania, and Massovia, is to be erected, by the name of Secret Tribunal for the Province of Prussia, whereas hitherto the Supreme Tribunal at Ber lin has been the highest court of justice for the whole monarchy, except the Rhenish provinces. This change would be a great saving of expense and time in the admi nistration of justice in those provinces, and is therefore expected with much satisfaction. The proposal made by M. Von Wegnern has been approved by his Majesty, and it is supposed that this eminent lawyer will be President. —Hamburgh Papers, Sept. 28. EXCHANGES ON LONDON.

One of our correspondents, who manifests strongly his desire to contribute to the subscription which we have proposed in favour of Sir Walter Scott's family, begs us to state how he was involved In debts of such great mag nitude as we have stated. We thought the facts were universally known, hut as we find they are not, we beg to state them in the words of Sir 'Walter himself, in the in troduction to the Chronicles of the Canonyate, in the number of the new edition of the Waverley novels which has just appeared : " I have, perhaps, said enough on former occasions of the misfortunes which led to the dropping of that mask under which I had, for a long series of years, enjoyed so large a portion of public favour. Through the success of those literary efforts, I had been enabled to indulge most of the tastes which a retired person of my station might be supposed to entertain. In the pen of this nameless romancer I seemed to possess something like the secret fountain of coined gold and pearls vouchsafed to the tra veller of the eastern tale ; and no doubt believed that I might venture, without silly imprudence, to extend m) oersonal expenditure considerably beyond what I should have thought of had my means been limited to the com petence which I derived from inheritance, with the mode rate income of a professional situation. I bought, and built, and planted; and was considered by myself, as by the rest of the world, in the safe possession of an easy fortune. My riches, however, like the other riches of this world, were liable to accidents, under which they were ulti mately destined to make unto themselves wings and fly away. The year 1825, so disastrous to many branches of industry and commerce, did not spare the market of literature; and the sudden ruin that fell on so many of the booksellers could scarcely have been expected to leave unscathed one whose career had of ne cessity connected hits deeply and extensively with the pe cuniary transactions of that profession. In a word, almost without one note of premonition, I found myself involved in the sweeping catastrophe of the unhappy time, and called on to meet the demands of creditors upon commer cial establishments with which my fortunes had long been bound up, to the extent of no less a sum than 120,0001. The author, having, however, rashly committed his pledges thus largely to the hazards of trailing companies, it be hoved him, of course, to abide the consequences of his conduct; and, with whatever feelings, be surrendered on the instant every shred of property which he bad been accus tomed to call his own. It became vested in the hands of gentlemen, whose integrity, prudence, and intelligence, were combined with all possible lib rality and kindness of disposition, and who readily afforded every assistance to wards the execution of plane, in the success of which the author contemplated the possibility of his ultimate extri cation, and which were of such a nature that, had assist ance of this sort been withheld, he could have had little prospect of carrying them into effect. Among other re sources which occurred was the project of that complete and corrected edition of his novels and romances (whose real parentage had of necessity been disclosed at the mo ment of the commercial convulsions alluded to) which has now advanced with unprecedented favour neatly to its close." To this we may add the following extract on the same subject, from a well-writte❑ account of the distinguished Baronet in the Spectator of yesterday. The article is said to be written by an intimate friend of Sir Walter : " For many years he followed his literary labours, with an ardour stimulated by the cheering prospect of building upon them a fortune corresponding to his elevated station in society, and of leaving a below d family in affiuence.— One dreadful stroke blasted this fair prospect. He became responsible for debts which swallowed up his possessions, and swept away the fruits of all his labours. He stood the blow with unshaken fortitude. For its consequences to himself he exhibited perfect indifference ; his feelings for his family he buried in his own breast : but his firm ness could not stand the reflection that he had been the means of involving others in distress or difficulty. On this subject alone he could not suppress the poignancy of his anguish; and his whole thoughts were bent, not, like other men, on saving some remnant out of the wreck of his fortune, but on giving to his creditors, in addition to what had become theirs, that which was still his own—the inalien able powers of his mind. He instantly resumed his labou rs ; and though he knew that the toil of his whole future life, even in the most favourable event, could do little more than satisfy the claims of hir creditors, and very probably might not accomplish that object, still he persisted, without one of the cheering anticipations of his former days, and without an incitement but high moral principle, in pursuing a course of mental exertion, in which he allowed himself not even a pause, till his o'erlaboured brain refused to perform its office, and his paralyzed hand dropped the pen. His self-devotion was received as it deserved by those to whose benefit it was directed. They have availed them selves of every opportunity of expressing an admiration and gratitude amounting to enthusiasm for conduct so sublime. To his creditors, the benefits of his labours do not cease with his life. The great edition of the Waverley novels alone must continue, for a long time, to realize large sums ; and we believe the ultimate deficiency will not be considerable." It is gratifying to find that the suggestions thrown out by us on the propriety of taking steps to redeem the estates and mansion of Abbotsford are about to be followed up. We are authorized to state that a committee of gentlemen is now forming, principally from among the friends of Sir Walter Scott, to arrange the best method for carrying into elTect this truly national object. UNIVERSITY OF LONDON. Yesterday the lectures at the University of London commenced by the delivery of au introductory lecture by Dr. Elliotson, which was remarkable for the good sense and sound principles which it disclosed. The Professor said that the establishment of the University of London formed an era in the history of England. The foundation of a university in the first metropolis of Europe was in itself a memorable event, but the foundation of that uni versity upon the principles and plan which distinguish it, was an event so novel and important in all respects, that it would be regarded as a striking feature of the age when pourtrayed by the very latest historians. That the largest and wealthiest city in Europe should have been destitute of a university, of a great seminary in which all science, art, and literature could be learned, was no less extraordi nary than lamentable, and the more so since the other ca pitals of Europe afforded the advantage of an university to their inhabitants and the surrounding provinces. One would naturally imagine that where the largest mass of people was collected, where the greatest accumulation of talent and information existed, was where the means of instruction were the roost abundant, and where the liveliest activity prevailed. In that spot would be seen the fairest and most copious fountain of knowledge, at which not only the young inhabitants of the city might drink, but to which the youth of the provinces would repair, rather than that those of the city should be compelled to seek the best in struction in the provinces. In the case of medicine this deficiency was the more remarkable, because medicine cannot be properly taught unless in the midst of a large population. That there was at the beginning of the 19th century in Great Britain, no full and complete school of medicine, or no university affording a perfect medical edu cation, capable of conferring privileges and honours, within 400 miles of the metropolis, would never cease to excite wonder as long as it should be remembered. The neces aity of going from London to Edinburgh for the purpose of obtaining a full medical education and a degree, was an absurdity which a century hence would scarcely be cre dited. But the principles and the plon of the University rendered the event so much more striking, that had a uni versity already existed in the metropolis, upon the prin.• ciples and plan of the two ancient English Universities, and now been reformed to the principles and plan of the University of London, that even would have been almost as memorable an occurrence. The grand principle of the University is to afford instruction to all, and to bestow whatever honours it shall have the power of bestowing upon all whose proficiency is distinguished. The rule of conferring no honour, of conferring eligiblity to appoint ments upon no merit, however great, among pupils, un less they prof esse d to h o ld certa i n op i n i ons upon religious history and doctrine, and in testimony of their sincerity signed a specific number of articles, and thus declared them. selves members of a particular sect, was a principle truly barbarous, and not in accordance with the present period of society. No one could demand an examination for a fellowship at the College of Physicians, in virtue of any degree but that of Oxford or Cambridge, and no pupil could obtain a degree in the Universities unless he signed the 39 articles. If it were urged that the English Uni versities were intended for the supply of the church of England, the answer was easy. The church had a right to possess Universities, and to see them as ex clusively endowed with privileges in regard to itself as it desired, but those Universities ought not to possess the exclusive power of bestowing a single privilege not in reference to the church, while they exacted a declaration of certain religious opinions from their candidates. The objection lay, not against those statutes, but against the exclusive possession of privileges in matters not relating to the church, by institutions which had such statutes ; ardently, therefore, did he desire to see equal privileges enjoyed by the University of Lon don, and by whatever other universities might arise, with the same generous and rational principles. Where no such comprehensive institutions existed, each religious de nomination had a right to a university of its own, en dowed with equal powers of granting degrees and conferring priveleges ; because proficiency in knowledge was of equal value and merit in men of all creeds, and we had no right, while ascertaining the literary or scientific attainm, nts of a person, to inquire of him what are his religious opinions, much less to withhold knowledge, or what was nearly the same thing, the honours which were devised as the incen tives to the attainment of knowledge in youth, from any one, because his faith, or shade of faith, was not precisely the same as our own. But a university exclusively for every sect, in imitation of the principles of the two ancient English universities, would be impossible ; at least, a uni versity of high pretension, and a magnificent institution like the University of London, while it was calculated to answer every purpose, had this great advantage, that by bringing together the youth of all sects, it liberalized their feelings, taught them toleration and forbearance towards other creeds and doctrines, and proved to them that how ever correct their own opinions appeared, others of dif ferent opinions might likewise lead a virtuous and religious life—might still perform no less than they themselves their duty towards God and their duty towards their neighbour. The generous and manly principle of offering education, and the honours of industry and talent, to the youth of all creeds and sects, so that no one hereafter should be compelled to lose a university education and university honours in Eng land, because he happened to have been born of parents who did not rear him a member of the church of England, involves the necessity of teaching the religious doctrines, and enforcing the religious observances, of no one party in particular,—in truth, no other doctrine and observance than that in which all agree,—that which is the end of all religion,—that which Paley in one of his sermons allowed to be the sole purpose of the revelatio❑ of the most solemn doctrine of the church—morality. The learned professor then observed, that natural religion and morality were as well taught in the University of London as in any other Univo rsity, and stated, from his personal observation, that the students of the former would bear comparison in every point of principle and conduct with the youth of any similar institution in Europe. He then endeavoured to establish the superiority of the plan of the University of London over that of the Universities of Oxford and Cam bridge, and next communicated to his audience the grati fying intelligence, that an hospital, connected with the University, was about to be immediately established, which he had good reason for believing would shortly rival any other hospital at present existing in the metropolis. He then concluded with the following words :—" The Uni versity is now prospering. Great advantages have re sulted from the establishment of a committee of manage ment within the council, and of a senatus academicus. All labour assiduously—all are animated with the liveliest desire to promote the institution. One good feeling per vades us all, and each is willing to postpone his own im. mediate advantage to the general good, knowing that this is, after all, the surest as well as the most honourable path to our immediate success." SEPTEMBER AGRICULTURAL REPORT. This has been a most delightful month, not only as relates to agricultural pursuits, but to the health and comfort of the whole creation. Never do we recollect a September so free from atmospheric hu midity or convulsions. _ Rumours were prevalent in the early part of the month, that both the standing and growing corn had been greatly damaged by the strong winds and heavy rains that fell between the 20th and 27th ult. ; but September has brought to a close, even in the most backward parts of England, a harvest pro ductive of as rich, as abundant, and, generally speak ing, as well harvested a crop, as the oldest farmer recollects to have witnessed. Most of the new corn that we have seen, particularly the wheat and barley, has been exceedingly fine. A few sprouted samples have made their appearance at market; but their number, and the quantity, have been, we have good reason to believe, most grossly exaggerated. It has been generally retnarked that, notwith standing-the absence of rain, the pasture herbage, and other natural, as well as seed, grasses have appeared fresher, have vegetated faster, and are more luxuriant than on the 24th of June, and that the depastured stock is thriving faster than at any period of the summer. Several farmers have oh strved that rain was wanted for the purpose of affording a good season for the wheat seeding, and to water the growing turnips, which began to ma nifest a thirsty appearance; but they all admit that they do not recollect a September in which the harvest, or any other branch of field labour, met with so little interruption from atmospheric vio lence or humidity. Heavy complaints, however, are made as to the immense quantity of foreign grain (not less than 140,000 quarters) that had recehtly fallen into our corn markets. They com plain also of the manner in which they are teased by their landlords, and by candidates themselves, for their vote and interest at the approaching gene ral election! Yet, they say, they " delight in con tested elections, because they are good for trade 1" This may be true, as far as relates to producing an increase of money in certain branches of industry, by withdrawing it from its secret hoards ; but will this be a fair equivalent for the vice, dissipation, debauchery, deception, party-spirit, and ill-will that it will occasion ? Certainly not. As to the pro mises of candidates, or even their profession of cer tain principles, a cautious Frenchman would say, " C'est 71C pas connoitre les aspirants cue de compter sur leur promesses ;" and a cautious Eng lishman will say, " to calculate upon the promises of candidates is not to know them !" Some of the newspapers have been congratulating their readers on the prospective increase of the reve nue, arising from the before-mentioned quantity of foreign corn paying the home consumption duty. But they seem not to be aware that this is only robbing Peter to pay Paul. This increase has issued from a source of ruin, from the holders having been ob liged to lose the whole, or more than the whole,amount of the duty—nothing short of 150,0001.—through being necessitated to dispose of it. Thus many are nearly, if not entirely, ruined, whilst the English grower, ❑otwithstanding the abundance of his har vest, is apprehensive that prices will be so reduced as to cause him to share their fate. Both wheat-sowing and the hop-harvest corn, mepced with the month; they became general about the 10th, and have gone on well to the present, with the exception of the wheat having stood in need of rain to moisten its bed. In Kent hops are said to be beneath, in other districts fully up to, an average growth. The picking is expected to be brought to a conclusion, should the weather continue fine, about the 10th of October, Store sheep and lamb!;, store beasts and pigs, horses, milch cows, wool, barley, and old hops, have fully supported last month's prices ; wheat, oats, beans, beef, mutton, lamb, veal, hay, and straw, have fallen considerably ; peas have greatly advanced in price. New Kent and Sussex hops, in pockets, which have been in good supply, have sold to some extent, at from 10s. to 15s. per cwt. above the prices of those of 1831. The parish of Marylebone, which has now become so considerable a portion of the metropolis, was originally a small village formed by French refugees. In the year 1671, the dimensions of our first rates were, length of gun deck, 165 feet; breadth of beam, 46 feet; depth in hold, 19 feet 2 inches; burthen in tons, 1,550. Of this class was the old Britannia, which was launched at Chatham in 1682. In 1719, the Royal William was built in this Dock-yard. She was originally of 100 gunF, and was one of the ships that went to relieve Gibraltar in the year 1782, and was afterwards for many years a guard ship at this port. Her dimensions were, length of gun deck 174 feet, being an increase of nine feet; breadth of beam 50 feet, being an in crease of four feet ; depth in hold 20 feet, being an increase of 1 foot; burthen in tons, 1,869, being an increase of 219 tons. In the establishment of 1745, our first-rates were further increased, their dimensions being then, length of gun deck 178 feet; breadth of beam, 51 feet; depth in hold, 21 feet 6 inches; burthen in tons, 2,000. The present guard ship at this port, the Victory, of 104 guns, was launched at Chatham in 1765. The length of her gun-deck was 186 feet; breadth of beam, 51 feet 6 inches; depth in hold, 21 feet G inches; burthen in tons, 2,164. In the early part of the last war our first-rates were of the following dimensions :—Length of gun deck, 190 feet breadth of beam, 52 feet 4 inches; depth in hold, 22 feet 4 inches ; burthen in tons, 2,278. In 1790, the Ville de Paris, of 112 guns, was ordered to be built at Chatham, and she was launched in 1795, her length of gun-deck being 190 feet 3 incites ; breadth of beam, 53 feet, 3 inches ; depth in. hold, 22 feet 3 inches; burthen in tons, 2,351. The next increase in the dimensions of our first rates was in the Hibernia, of 120 guns, which was ordered to be built in the same year, 1790, at Ply mouth, hut she was not launched till fourteen years after, in 1804. The length of her gun-deck was 202 feet 84 inches; breadth of beam, 53 feet 2i inches; depth in hold, 22 feet 6 inches; burthen in tons, 2,508. The Caledonia, of 120 guns, came next, and was laid down in 1794, at Plymouth, but not launched till 1808. Her dimensions were, length of gun-deck, 205 feet; breadth of beam, 53 feet 6 inches; depth in hold, 24 feet; burthen in tons, 2,620. The Caledonia has since been doubled by increasing the size of her timbers, adding to her ex ireme breadth 1 foot. On the lines of the Caledonia were built the Britannia, at Plymouth; the Howe, at Chatham ; •he Nelson and the Royal George, at Woolwich ; the Prince Regent, at Chatham ; and the St. Vincent, at Plymouth. The Nelson has also since been doubled by having an additional G-inch planking on each side, outside the bottom. The next alteration was merely an increase of one foot in the beam in order to enable the ships to carry an increased weight of ordnance; of this de scription is the Neptune, launched at this port on Thursday last, the Royal Frederick, to be laid down on the slip on which the Neptune was built ; the Royal William, at Pembroke; the St. George, at Plymouth; the Trafalgar, at Woolwich; and the IVaterloo, at Chatham. These latter are all of the same dimensions, viz, length of gun-deek, 205 feet 7 inches; breadth of beam, 54 feet 7 inches; depth in hold, 24 feet; burthen in tons, 2,700. It must be remarked that there were formerly in the Navy various other classes ofthree-decked ships, besides those of 100 guns and upwards. Thus, in the reign of 'William and Mary, in 1691, ships of 80 guns on three decks were established, and con iinued to be built till the year 1756. These ships varied in tonnage from 1,100 to 1,595 tons. Those which were built in 1745 were of the following di mensions :—Length of gun-deck, 165 feet; breadth of beam, 47 feet; depth in hold, 20 feet. The 90 L on ships, on three decks, which were built between the years 1677 and 1745 varied in tonnage from 1,307 to 1,730 tons. The dimensions of the largest ships of this description were, length of gun-deck, 170 feet ; breadth of beam, 48 feet 6 inches; depth ins hold, 20 feet 6 inches. Our old 98-gun ships, such as the Barfieur, which was built at Chatham, in the year 1768, had their length of gun-deck 177 feet 8 inches; breadth of beam, 50 feet 5i inches; depth in h01d,21 feet; burthen in tons, 1,947. This class of ships were, however, found to be too wide for their length ; and, in consequence, the Prince, which was built at Woolwich, in 1788, and the Ocean, which was built at the same port, in 1805, were both lengthened 17 feet; the former in dock It this yard in 1796, and the latter on the stocks at Woolwich, in 1798. The largest first-rate we have ever had in our ports, was the Commerce de Marseilles, a French ship, which was taken at Toulon by Lord Hood in 1793. She was brought to Spithead, where she was fitted. The length of her gun-deck was 208 feet 4 inches; breadth of beam, 54 feet 9i inches; depth in hold, 25 feet inch; burthen is tons, 2,747. The present dimensions of the French first ates of 120 guns, are, length of gun deck, 209 feet 9 inches; breadth of beam, 54 feet 7 inches; depth in hold, 27 feet 2 inches. This class of ships are intended to carry on their gun deck thirty-two 30-pounders, which are about equal to our 32- pounders; on the middle deck thirty-four 30-poun ders; and on the main deck, quarter deck, and fore astle, fifty-four 24-pounder long guns and 30- pounder carronades. Our account having extended itself to a length far beyond what we anticipated or intended, we will only add that, during the early part of the last war our first rates carried 42-pounders on their gun decks, but which were subsequently exchanged for 32-pounders in all, except t h e old Royal George and Britannia, both of which, we believe, continued o carry their original 42-pounders, until they were unfit for service. We shall, from time to time, as occasions may offer, continue our notice of altera tions and increase made in the other classes or rates, of ships in his Majesty's Navy. FATAL AssAuLT.—Yesterday, a Coroner's Jury assembled at the Poor-house, St. Michael's, St. Al ban's, to inquire into the death of an inhabitant of the neighbouring town of Redburo, an aged and deformed man, u:uned Jotite POULTEIt. It appeared that while in com ',any with another person, named PEACOCK, the deceased was attacked, on Saturday evening, on the footpath near St. Alban's, by an athletic young fellow, named WILLIAM tion. Oa hs who i knocked uhpimthedodweene,ast:dithexoupot a c r a ated with JOIINSON, as did his companion, but to no Jouirsort made a second attack, and, with a violent blow, sr proroa oroke the deceased's jaw, which was forced into the mouth, Ile never spoke afterwards. Some ineffectual assistance was afforded, but ultimately the deceased was placed over the rails by the road side, where he was left, and in the morning was discovered quite dead. The delinquent was taken into custody, and alter an anxious inquiry into the causes of the death of the deceased, and a post mortem examination by a surgeon, the Jury returned a verdict of Wilful murder," and the prisaner has been committed to llertford gaol. FATAL ACCIDENT.--On Sunday afternoon about five o'clock, as Mr. GEO. WYATT, of Judd-street, Hrunswick-square, was returning in a gig from Richmond, accompanied by a young lady to whom he was shortly to b, united, on passing the bridge at the entrance o Brent ford, the horse took fright, and dashed into the town with ungovernable fury; when in the narrow part, at the cor ner of the Half-acre, the off-wheel corning in contact with one of the Isleworth coaches, th e s h a f ts bro k e, an d they were both thrown out with great violence. They were conveyed into the Crown pubic-house, and medical assist ance immediately procured. Mr. WYATT'S skull was found to be fractured, and life was extinct. The young lady, whose natne did nut transpire, had her arm broken in two places, and was otherwise seriously bruised. Mr. WYATT was a i respectabl e y oung man , h o ldi ng a res p ons ibl e situ ation n one of the first Manchester houses in the City, and was the sole support of a widowed mother and sister, whose feelings, when the horrible event reached them, ~.lonot be described. The horse was fortunately stopped without any further damages,
