NEWS for EVERYBODY.—It seldom happens that one particular kind of news applies to everybody, but the toitowing will there are two classes of purchasers—the first, buy goods for their own use ; and the second, for sale to others. The former may procure the most elegant, artistic, serviceable, and CHEAP CLOTHING, Hats, Caps, Hosiery, Boots, and Shoes, &c., at E. MOSES and SON'S. The goods have all a peculiar adaptation to season, particularly for the approaching 12th of August. SPORTING D rtES 4 offered by E. MOSES and SOi is cut on principles entirely new, and is made by a distinct class of experienced workmen, hence its accurate fit and unequalled superiority in every respect As usual, the charges for sporting dress, to measure or ready made, are considerably lower than at any other house.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD "Dr. Picktord 'a known to English readers by his frequent practi cit contributions to German medical literature. This is the lint t me, he informs as, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall ictect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his rower to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851. "We oromised in a former number that we should recur to this w,r's, in order to exhibit its ai m more clearly. The author lashes with great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying on the credulity of the public.

I must say that it appears to me that two persons in question, who at Guildford ordered this spe cial train, would have no more to do with the arrange ments than a mere stranger. Under these circum stances, asking the learned counsel whether he had any specific evidence to bring home the negligence to these parties, it is answered by the fact that there is none, that there is no evidence, and therefore there is nothing to leave to you, gentlemen. But, in common justice to the defendants, I should say, and in ordinary respect to the manner in which our criminal laws are administered, there would he nothing, I believe, upon the statement of the counsel to leave as evidence of that guilt which ought to be made out—something approaching to dis tinct and clear evidence—of their being great or culpa ble negligence on the part of the defendants. I have made this statement to you before your verdict is re corded, in order that I may state my opinion of the topics on which the learned counsel has declined to call any evidence in support of the charge against the de fendants. The Attorney-General said, that as he believed a good deal of excitement had been shown with reference to the case, he begged to be allowed to say a few words in justification of the gentlem en f or w h o m he appeared on the present occasion. In th e fi rs t place, it had been stated, that this special t ra i n h a d been engaged by the defendants for purpos es o f their own ; but there was no truth whateve r i n that statement. The train was engaged entirely f or the purposes of the railway, and the object in going to Alton was to make a survey and see that the lin e was in a proper con dition. There were no means by which notice could be given that the special train was on the line, but it was due to the defendants to stata that the proper signals were exhibited at the station,r4vhiek it was - the duty of the deceased to have attended to, and if he had done so he would have known that this was not the passenger train, and the accident would not have occured. In the case of pilot engines and a variety of other circumstances no other notice could be given than by means of the signals, and it was the duty of the deceased to have at tended to these signals, and nothing else. He regretted, however, to be obliged to state that he had on several occasions neglected to pay attention to the sig nals, and he had been reprimanded for so doing, and on this occasion the unfortunate accident was entirely the result of his own recklessness and inattention to orders. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty, and the defendants left the court. HOiNIE CIRCUIT.- CROYDON, AUGUST 1. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before the Chief Baron and a Common Jury.) THE QUEEN V. THE HON. F. SCOTT AND JOSEPH BEATTIE. The defendants, the Chairman of the South-Western Railway Company, and the superintendent of the loco motive department of that company, surrendered to take their trial upon a coroner's inquisition charging them with the manslaughter of Charles Cannon. A bill for the same offence was preferred before the grand jury, but they i g nored it. The defendants pleaded " Not Guilty " to the inqui sition. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Robinson appeared for the pro secution ; the Attorney-General, Mr. Ballantine, and Mr. Bovill were counsel for the defendants. Mr. Bodkin, in opening the case to the jury, said, that he had the honour, with his learned friend, to con duct this important prosecution, and he regretted ex ceedingly that, in consequence of the anomalous state of the law at the present time with regard to criminal prosecutions like the present, he was very imperfectly instructed with regard to the facts of the case, and he trusted, therefore he should be excused if he did not lay so clear and distinct a statement before the jury as he could have wished to have done. The charge was one of a very serious character. One of the gentlemen accused was a person of high station and character, and the other filled a very responsible position connected with the railway. They had, no doubt very properly, retained the assistance of the Queen's Attorney-General and two others of his learned friends, but he (Mr. Bod kin) was only retained on Friday last, and he mentioned this as an additional excuse if he should be found to omit anything that was material in the statement he should lay before the jury. He thought it right to inform them that, as Naga 'customary in such Cases, a bill of in dictment had been preferred before the grand jury, but they ignored it on the ground, as he believed, that no culpable negligence was established against either of the defendants. The Attorney-General objected to the learned counsel making any statement referring to the reasons which in duced the grand jury to ignore the bill. The Chief Baron said, they had nothing whatever to do with,any proceedings of the grand jury. All they had to do on the present occasion was to dispose of the matter before the Court. Mr. Bodkin said he would confine himself entirely to the coroner's inquisition, which charged both the defend ants with the crime of manslaughter, and he should now proceed to give the jury a brief outline of the circum stances under which the chargq arose. He should ex plain to them at the outset, that the principal defendant was a member of Parliament and the chairman of the board of directors of the railway in question ; and the other defendant, he believed, was a superintendent of the locomotive department, or, at all events, filling a respon sible station in connexion with the railway ; and he should wish the jury to understand that no moral delin quency was attributed to them, but the sole question they would have to decide was whether, by any negli gence, or want of proper caution on their part, they had been the means of causing the death of the de c e a s e d. The transaction in question occurred on a branch line of the Guildford Railway from Ash to Alton, between which station there was only a single line of rails, and only one station, that of Farnham, at which place the fatal accident occurred, intervened between the two places ; and he need hardly observe that under such cir cumstances the utmost caution was necessary to be ob served by every person who used this portion of the railway. The line was opened with the sanction of the Government inspector, in 1850, but he believed that at the same time the inspector communicated with the railway authorities upon the subject of their being only a single line, and it was understood that only one engine should be used at a time upon the line, in order to avoid the risk of danger. The defendants, he apprehended, must be taken as being fully aware of this understanding, and the question upon the present occasion would be whether they had jexercised due caution upon the occasion of the fatal occurrence taking place. The learned counsel then proceeded to state that on the 14th of May the defendants ordered a special train at Guild ford to proceed to Alton, and their arrangement was— and, he said, he believed he should be able to show that orders were given to that effect—that they should pro ceed direct to the place of their destination. The ordi nary passenger train was at Guildford when the special train took its departure, and it was detained in order that it might be a sufficient distance ahead to prevent any danger. The special train proceeded on its journey ; and the neglect charged against the defendants was, that they took no steps to give notice at the succeeding sta tions of Ash and Farnham of a special train being upon the line, and the consequence was that the deceased, who was a porter at the latter station, believing it to be the ordinary passenger train, ran to meet it, believing it would stop at the station, and he was unable to get out of the way of the train, and was run over and killed. He then proceeded to state that he believed there was no electric telegraph upon the line, by which a message could have been transmitted to the stations, giving them notice of the fact of a special train being upon the line ; but lie submitted that, under the cir cumstances, some means should have been taken to give notice of the fact, and that not doing so amounted to criminal negligence. The Chief Baron inquired of Mr. Bodkin when he considered the notice ought to have been given ? Were the defendants bound to have given so many hours' no tice of the departure of the special train ! Mr. Bodkin said, he was not prepared to ray when the notice ought to have been given, but he should con tend that the chairman of a railway ought to be taken to be well acquainted with all matters relating to the safety of persons upon the line, and that he was in a different position to an ordinary person. The Chief Baron said, he did not agree with the learned counsel in that respect. In his opinion, a railway chair man, or director, who engaged a special train, was in exactly the same position as an ordinary traveller, and he might reasonably suppose that all that was necessary to be done would be done by the persons in the employ of the railway upon whom that duty devolved ; and he would not be responsible unless it was shown that he had done some personal act or given some directions which led to the accident. Mr. Bodkin said, that as this was his lordship's opinion there was an end of the case, as the gravamen of the charge was that, knowing the ordinary passenger train would stop at the Farnham station, the defendants took no steps to make it known that the special train would arrive first and that it would not stop. The Chief Baron said, that the mere fact of the de fendants being the occupants of a special train did not make it incumbent on them to take care that all the necessary arrangements were made at the different sta tions through which they had to pass. He was of opinion that no such duty was cast upon them, and that whether in the case of a chairman or a director of a company, or a manager of the traffic, neither of them was responsible for what might occur at any station over which they had no personal control. He had no desire to stop the case, if the learned counsel thought he could make anything of it, or even if he was in a position to show that any direc tions had been given by either of the defendants ; but if lie could not do so, he put it to him whether he should consider it right to go any further ? Mr. Bodkin intimated that he should not prove any thing in addition to what he had stated, and said, that as the jury would be bound to act upon the direction given to them upon the point of law, he thought it would be an useless waste of the public time to call the witnesses. The Chief Baron Pollock then said to the jury—Be fore your verdict is recorded, I will say a word or two, which I am disposed to do in this case in consequence of the sort of interlocutory matter which passed between me and the learned counsel, or rather that sort of inter rupted statement which arose from the learned counsel continuing to press upon the judge and jury those topics which he thinks the interests of public justice required him to urge. I intend to state distinctly the grounds on which it appears to me that that which the learned counsel opened to you cannot be made a Yesterday, Patrick Farley, Michael Cunningham, and crime.

Yesterday Mr. William Baker opened an inquiry at the Court-house, Wellclose-square, St. George's-in-the- East, touching the death of an infant child, the offsprin g of Sarah Lipman, a Jewess, of No. 32, Cable-street, who, it was alleged, had mhuttillaatsetd. remains t w he er d e ec fo e n as n e d d b a y nd a femaleplaced i s t er o v n an a t fi o r n e, p w r i i i d e a r y e n it ig s she been Toomey, sery a o n f t bi t .

Mrs. Lipman kept a "dolly shop," or illegal pawnbroker's, which was visited by the poorer class of Irish persons. She had one child, aged about three and-a-half years, which lived with her. On Thursday the deceased complained of a pain in the stomach, and seemed very ill. Nothing particular occurred until Friday night, when Mrs. Lipman cleared out the shop, and about nine o'clock witness was sent to the house next door to boil some water for her tea, and after an absence of about five minutes witness returned, and on entering the back parlour discovered the head of a newly-born child on the coals in the fire-place. The fire had just gone out. Witness had smelt an unpleasant smell for two hours previously. There had been a fire in the stove about two or three hours, but her mistress kept her out as much as possible. There was no one in the apart ment when witness saw the head, and her mistress was in the shop. There were two candles lighted in the parlour at that time, and witness immediately gave notice to Mrs. Donovan, a neighbour, when she returned to the shop and asked Mrs. Lipman . for the wages due to her as she wished to go home, when she asked witness why she wished to go, when witness said, "Oh, you know why ; I have seen the head of a child on the fire." Mrs. Lipman then began to cry, and exclaimed, " I shall be disgraced if you tell any one." She then took witness into the back parlour, and said, " I will give you half a sovereign if you keep the matter a secret." Witness told her that she would not make any promise, and then ran out of the house, when Sergeant Foay en tered the parlour and took the child's head off the fire place. Witness slept in the same bed with Lipman, and on Friday morning last, at an early hour, she (Lipman) got out of bed several times and told witness she had got the stomach ache. About six o'clock she groaned very much, and witness left her in bed at half-past seven to procure some milk, and returned after five minutes' absence, when she requested witness to take a message to her father, in Leman-street, to tell him that she could not come out, as she was ill. A fire was lighted, and when breakfast was prepared she partook of it as usual. By the Coroner : She made no particular complaint of illness before Friday morning, and I never heard a child cry in the house on that day. Mrs. Lipman was engaged part of the day frying fish. There was a quantity of dirty red water in the pail which stood by the side of the bed stead. The black dress produced by Sergeant Foay, on which are stains of blood, I found among the saucepans in the shop, about four o'clock on Friday afternoon, and it belonged to Mrs. Lipman. She did not wear that dress on Friday, but she did on the Thursday. Cornelius Foay, police -sergeant (H division) said that on Friday night he went to No. 32, Cable-street, and found Mrs. Lipman sitting on a chair in the corner of the shop. Witness said, " 'What's amiss ?" but she made no reply. Witness then went into the parlour, and found the head of a child lying on the fire-place. There were also two pieces of skull bone on the hearth. Witness searched the cinders in the grate, and found a quantity of blood upon them, and small pieces of flesh. The contents of the fire-place were quite hot, as if a large fire had recently been therein. Witness told her that he should take her into custody on a charge of con cealing the birth of her child and destroying its life by placing the body on the fire. She then said, " You may do as you like with me, for I am tired of my life." Witness looked round, and found a gown, petticoat, &c. covered with blood in the shop. A large pair of scissors were on the fender. Mr. Michael Samuel Ryan, of Leman-street, surgeon, deposed that he examined the prisoner and found that she had recently been delivered of a child. The head produced is that of a newly-born child of mature birth. The blood found on the clothes and cinders was of that description which follows the delivery of women, and does not coagulate. It was certainly not that descrip tion of blood of a child slaughtered after birth. The child, in witness's opinion, was of seven months' ges tation. By a juror—Had attended Mrs. Lipman about three months ago, when she suffer e d f rom exc itement and dis tress of mind through the death of her mother. She had epileptic fits, which had latterly returned while she was in the workhouse. Could not say positively that the limbs were consumed, as it would all depend upon the heat in the stove. The Coroner—Partial insanity generally follows par turition. Children cry at the birth, and if the deceased had cried it must have been heard in such a small house by some of the inmates. Bridget Russell, who lived in the cellar of No. 32, Cable-street, was examined, and said she did not hear any noise of a child crying on the day in question. She did not smell anything unpleasant. The Coroner adjourned the proceedings for a few days to allow the police time to make further search for the other parts of the body which are missing. THE MURDER AT BARNET. LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 2, 1853. July, he went to Mr. Bryant's rick, to go to rest, having I come into Barnet to get some tobacco. As he went in at the gate, he met two men coming out towards the road. One had on a dark jacket, or coat, and as he passed on to the rick near the barn, he heard the man known as " Sailor" call out, " Here come the police," and he ran away ; and he then heard a woman moan, and on looking, saw a woman sitting under the rick, and that man (pointing to the prisoner Cunningham) either kneelinc , or sitting with her hands in his. She called out, "Let go my hands." He (Farley) went on to the rick, and heard Barney Burns say to " Sailor," " What a shame to serve such an old woman so !" and he (Farley) also said so to him, and be used a base ex pression towards the woman. He never saw " Sailor" afterwards. Cunningham had on light moleskin trowsers, such as those produced (these were stained with blood, &c.). Would swear that the prisoner Magennis was not one of the men he met. On his solemn oath, this was all he knew of the matter. There being no further evidence, the court was cleared, and, after a consultation, the bench resolved on dis charging the prisoner Magennis, as well as Farley, and on again remanding Cunningham, their impression being that, in consequence of the evidence of Farley, and the stains on his trowsers and linen, there was strong cir cumstantial evidence against him. A constable who well knew the person of " Sailor" was directed to proceed to Winchester, and if he identi fied the man in custody there, to bring him before them at their next sitting. MEETING OF OMNIBUS PROPRIETORS. A general meeting of omnibus proprietors was held yesterday at the Cranbourne Hotel, St. Martin's-lane, to consider the present state of the trade, and to adopt measures thereon ; Mr. H. Gray in the chair. The entire of the omnibus trade was 'represented at this meeting. The CHAIMAN said the present meeting was called SUICIDE BY PRUSSIC ACID. for the purpose of taking into consideration the best mode of obtaining an appeal, which was a question of the greatest importance, and although it had not already reached the masters, yet they were bound to protect their servants and see that justice was done them. If the bill had passed as it stood on its introduction, it would have been one of the most despotic acts ever in troduced into this country. :Under it men were, right or wrong, placed in a dungeon ; and he might give, as an instance, where the proprietor of an omnibus, finding a man putting his dirty feet on new cushions, requested the man to remove them, and on his refusing to do so, he pushed them off. For this offence he was committed to prison for a month, which arbitrary sentence he was now undergoing. He (the chairman) had never taken part in politics ; but he thought that Austrian tyranny was freedom compared with this act of Parliament. He was averse to anything that might be obnoxious to the general public, and although there might be a difference of opinion as to whether the strike of the cab-owners was right or wrong, yet still he thought the act was such a one as ought not to have been passed. The leaders of the omnibus and cab trade had been to the House of Commons, where they had seen Mr. Fitzroy, Lord D. Stuart, and Sir John Shelley, and they had given it as their opinion that, while they were " out of court," no assistance would be rendered by Parliament ; and but for their assistance he believed- that some of the men would have been out on Strike to the present hour. Mr. BRADFIELD (the secretary) read a letter from Lord Dudley Stuart, stating that if the men returned to work, it was his intention on Monday evening to give notice of further amendments to the Hackney Carriages Bill. A shocking case of suicide, by taking prussic acid, occurred at Carmarthen, on Thursday, which, from the respectability and position of the family of the deceased, has attracted a great deal of atten tion. From inquiries since made, it appears that the unfortunate man, Mr. W. S. Harris, was the son of Mr. Harris, an ex-M.P. for the borough of Lei cester, and he himself was a member of the town-coun cil, and largely engaged in the stocking trade. The deceased has left a widow and six children to lament his loss. It seems that he laboured under an apprehension that his embarrassments were of an irretrievable character, which was far from being the fact ; that he left his home on Monday last for Rugby, where he wrote a long and wandering statement of his affairs to his friends, and went from Rugby to Swansea, whence he wrote to say that his body . would be found at Carmarthen. It appears that the night before he committed at e r ash ash act he arrived at Carmarthen, by the train,el o'clock. He put up at the Boar's Head and called for a class of spirits and water, and, after remaining some t q h u e s s e t v i n e several l t h c e o m c h m a e m r b c i e a r n a lg a d n t t l e o m c e a n l htiemreetinirecdotinopabneyd, with him at about eight o'clock, which she did, but, receiv ing no answer, after knocking loudly at his door for some time, she became alarmed and called her master. Mr. Morgan, the landlord, finding the door unlocked, at once entered the chamber, and found the gentleman a corpse and lying across the bed undressed. The superintendent of police was at once sent for, who, after some delay, succeeded in discovering the name of the deceased under the collar of his coat and also a note on the Leicester bank. He at once pro ceeded to the railway station and telegraphed a message to the superintendent of Leicester, request ing him to ascertain if any person of the name of W. S. Harris was known in that town, and, if so, for his relatives to communicate immediately to Carmarthen, as he had been found dead in his bed. Be fore this communication could be received at Leicester, a message was dispatched by the friends of the de ceased there, addressed to the mayor of Carmarthen, requesting immediate search to be made for Mr. Harris, and if found to cause care to be taken of him until the arrival of his friends at Carmarthen. Some of his connections subsequently arrived and identified the body. All the circumstances connected with the unfor tunate gentleman's decease leave no doubt of its being by his own hand, as a bottle of prussic acid was found by his side, and in bed alongside of the deceased was a glass tumbler. In his pocket was a draught on the Leicester Bank for 531. odd. An inquest has been held on the body, and subjoined is an abstract of the evi dence adduced. Mr. David R. Morgan deposed to the deceased having come to his house, as stated above. He said the firm he belonged to was in the wholesale haberdashery line, and remarked, " We have not been in the habit of coming to this country for several years." He spoke in a coherent way, and witness did not notice anything peculiar in his manners. He took two glasses of whisky and water in the course of the evening, nothing else. He was not in drink or any way excited. The witness nar rated the circumstance of his having been called by the chambermaid the next morning, and his going to the room where the deceased was with Mr. bowcroft. Mr. Sowcroft took a small bottle off the dres sing -table, which was marked in print " Poison," and exclaimed, "This is the thing that has done it." The deceased was on his back in bed, with the bedclothes, which were quite smooth, drawn up to his chin. His hands were clinched and leaning on his chest, his legs straight, his face very pallid, but otherwise natural. A glass tumbler was found by his side in the bed. Witness went for Mr. Williams, surgeon, and brought him with him, as also a policeman. Mr. Williams examined the bottle, and said it had contained prussic acid. The door was not bolted. Frances Davis, chambermaid, deposed to showing the deceased to bed about a quarter to 2 in the morning. She told him she was sorry to show him that room, but if he was there another night he would get a better room. Deceased at first made no answer ; but, on her repeating it, said, "Mary, this will do very well for me." He was perfectly sober. He had a small paper parcel, but no other luggage. He told her to calf him at half past Bin the morning. She did so, and knocked re peatedly, but got no answer. She then went and told Mr. Morgan. Mr. Sowcroft, commercial traveller, of Birmingham, gave similar evidence to that of Mr. Morgan, and added that the deceased could not reach the dressing-table from his bed. The bottle was on its side on the centre of the table, corked. Mr. S. Stone, town-clerk of Leicester, deposed, that he had known the deceased for some years. He resided at Leicester, was by trade a cotton-winder, and in exten sive business for himself. On Tuesday morning last, about 10 o'clock, one of his brothers came rushing to witness's office in a state of great agitation, with a letter in his hand. He was unable to speak and handed witness the letter. [The witness here produced three letters, which were identified by Mr. J. Hunter, of Leicester, as being in the handwriting of the deceased.] After reading it he immediately dispatched two of the detectives of the police force by special train to Rugby. No trace was found of him there, and they proceeded thence to Liverpool, Birmingham, &c. The letter was dated "Rugby, Monday," and the following is an extract :—" I now feel that I have offended every friend and also my God. What is to become of me ? For a year and a half I have thought of nothing but death. Oh, dear brother, there is no hope of me. I cannot face my creditors ; I am mad, and have been for a long time." . . . " I will write again and tell you where you may find me. Your lost brother, William." On Wednesday morning deceased's brother received an other letter, bearing the Swansea postmark, in these words— "My dear brother, I shall be found in Carmar then, South Wales. Farewell." The difficulties of de ceased were not serious, only pecuniary liabilities, nothing criminal. They would have been instantly settled by his family had they known them. He was a man of character and a member of the town-council. He was 38 years of age. Mr. James Rowlands, surgeon, deposed to having made a post mortem examination of the deceased, and described the appearances presented by the body. He had analysed the contents of the stomach, and detected prussic acid in considerable quantities. The result of his examination proved that he died from the effects of prussic acid. The bottle would contain enough to kill two or three persons. The coroner having summed up, the jury returned as their verdict, "That the deceased died from the effects of prussic acid, taken while in a state of temporary in sanity." Mr. HARTLEY moved that a petition be presented to the House of Commons, which set forth the grievances which have been fully referred to in the cab-owners' meetings, by exercise of arbitrary power by magistrates and the police commissioners ; that, in addition to the number of persons whose liberties were affected by the act, they called attention to the magnitude of the pro perty which was affected, and that any error in judgment might seriously affect their property ,•' that 1,200 omni buses and 12,000 horses were affected, and the consump tion of hay and corn costs nearly half a million, and the licenses and duties nearly a quarter of a million annually. They, therefore, prayed the house to pass an enactment to modify the said act, by granting an appeal to any person who might feel aggrieved by any proceeding or decision either of the police commissioners or police magistrates. Mr. LINES seconded the amendment, which was put and carried unanimously. Mr. TREVETT moved, and Mr. MACNAMARA. seconded, a vote of thanks to the chairman, which also passed unanimously. The CHAiRMAN acknowledged the compliment, and the meeting was dissolved. SHOCKING SUICIDE. One of the most appalling suicides ever reported oc curred on Sunday morning at the house of Mrs. Burnes, fruiterer, London-street, Greenwich.l. The unfortunate de ceased, Lavinia Mary Cuthbert, was a married woman, who, with her husband, for some time past, bad been in the employ of Mr. John Shove, corn dealer, but had been lately discharged. It appears that on Sunday morning, about 11 o'clock, deceased went - to her bedroom, and, after a short time, was discovered to have ripped open her stomach with her husband's razor, and before medical assistance could be brought to her aid she expired. An inquest was held yesterday evening before Mr. C. J. Carttar, at the Prince of Wales. Mrs. Margaret Mace said : I reside in the same house with deceased, whom I have known about two years. Deceased and her husband had lodged with me about two months. On Sunday morning, a little before eleven, Mrs. Cuthbert was below stairs talking with me, and about half an hour after wards I heard a noise which I at first took to be the howling of a dog, but afterwards thought to be moaning. ' I was then on the first floor, and I went up to deceased's room, upon opening the door of which I saw her lying on the bed on her back, with her feet on the floor. Her clothes were up, and in her right hand she had a razor, and her bowels in her other hand. There was a pail by her side. When I entered she seemed to know me, and turned and struggled, but did not speak. I immediately called assistance, and sent for Mr. Gay Shute, the sur geon. I turned her round and laid her head on the pillow. I took the razor from her hand and laid it on the table ; after that she grasped her flannel petticoat. She died about twenty minutes afterwards, just as Mr. Shute's assistant arrived. Her husband was out at the time in his garden at the back cf Church-passage. He had left the house before I spoke with deceased, and did not return till he was sent for. Her state of mind was very low, particularly on Saturday and on Sunday morn ing. She seemed depressed at the thought of going away from her mother, as was arranged for Wednesday, her husband having taken a place at Newbury. This evidence having been confirmed by other wit nesses, the jury returned a verdict of "Temporary de rangement." Two envelopes, on which the deceased had written in a neat and clear hand, were found in a shirt, and the contents seemed to lead to the conclusion that it was one note, and was as follows : " My dear Charles ' —I know it must come, and the will third shock I feel drive me to utter madness. To my dear friends it is better to know my end than to see me in a lunatic asylum. Do not let a lot of strangers handle me about. lam quite clean and have on all that I re quire. I wish my mother to have the box and the bundle, and also my furs, because she has nothing to keep her warm in winter. You can dispose of my other things as you like. I should like to lay in the same grave as my dear father, May God forgive you, as I hope he will me, and may you get another wife who will love you as I have done. " Your unfortunate wife, " LAVINIA." Mr. Oldfield explained that he thought the meaning of the words " third shock" to refer to the trouble she had twice before had to go through, and that she saw no prospect of her husband's third undertaking ending more successfully.

The colossal statue of the late Marquis of Bute, K.T., has been erected at Cardiff, intended as a tribute from the county at large to its most munificent benefactor. The statue is a full length, and represents the late mar quis in his robes as Lord High Commissioner to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. The drapery is flowing and effective, the position easy and graceful, and the likeness is admitted to be an admirable one. The whole stands twenty-two feet in height, and the pedestal, which is of granite, is thirteen feet. The statue has been executed by Mr. Evan Thomas, the well-known sculptor of Belgrave-place, London, and the model was exhibited in the Great Exhibition, where it occupied a prominent place, The whole will be enclosed with a handsome iron railing.

They are to be securely attached to her after body, and when sufficiently afloat the power of various mechanical furces will be brought into requisition to force her into the water. The workmen carrying out these operations are em ployed from four o'clock in the morning until eight in the evening. Several immense pieces of African oak — the largest the dockyard can produce are to be projected through the after ports on the gun deck be neath, and to these the tanks are to be firmly attached. The getting these ponderous pieces of timber on board is a work of great difficulty and interest. They are taken in through the bow port by powerful tackle, and then drawn along the deck to their place of destination, operations which require great care and attention to prevent accidents. To effect a firm foundation for shoring up the after part of the ship, large logs of African timber were first laid down, crossing these another layer, and another, and another, each crossing the former, until a foundation equalling the solid rock has been obtained.

Yesterday, being the Ist of August, the boat-race for this prize —one of the most attractive and popular of th season--took place, aed was accompanied by a greater number of "Cutters and other craft than we ever remem ber to have seen for some years past. The following were the entries :-- John Ormston Kilsby Bankside. Richard Babington Horselydown. William Barratt ... Old Barge-house. James Richard Fennis ... Tower. Rowland Alfred Davies . Battersea. G-eorge Frederick Beckett ::. Old Barge-house. Mr. Dards, Largemaster of the Fishmongers' Company, was, as usual, the manager and umpire, and took his seat in the starting galley at half-past 3, in order to see the men properly at their stations at London bridge, to row against tide to the Swan at Chelsea. All being in readiness a very ca pit a l start was effecte d at 10 minutes to 4 o'clock. Beckett, Davies, and Fermis. being to the southward, had a slight advantage in sta tion, hut all were off together, and remained scull and scull for a few strokes. Babington then drew the nose of his boat slightly in front, closely waited upon by Beckett and Fennis on one side, and Kilsby on the other, in which order they passed through Southwark bridge, Babington increasing his lead between that and Blackfriars. A most beautiful contest was kept up with unabated vigour between Babington, Kilsby, Beckett, and Fermis, the others beginning to tail off, and at Waterloo-bridge the pace began to tell heavily upon Babington, who gave place severally to Kilsby, Fennis, and Beckett. Kilsby now made a most de termined spurt to get right away from his opponents ; but it was met by a similar demonstration of game on their part, and, in commencing the shoot off Roberts's, it was quite evident that it would soon be ascertained which was the best man. Kilsby held the lead once, but at Vaux hall-bridge his strength was fast abating, and Fennis, rowing right up to his sculls, in a few strokes afterwards passed, him, and never was overtaken, although obvi ously distressed at the end of the distance, and winning by three lengths only, thus earning the livery, badge, and a guinea. Kilsby was second, three lengths ahead of Beckett, and these two receive 41. 10s. and 21.145. 2d., interest on South Sea Stock, bequeathed by Sir W. Jol- Babington was fourth, Barratt fifth, and Davies sixth, which entitled the first-named to a guinea-and-a half, and the two last to a guinea each, which, with the winner's money, are presents by the Fishmongers' Com pany. The wagermen were regaled with a hearty re past at the expense of the same company at the Swan at Chelsea. TEE GRINNELL ARCTIC EXPEDITION. We are permitted to publish the following extracts of letters from D. Kane, U.S.N., commander of the second American expedition for the rescue of Sir John Frank lin, jointly fitted out by Mr. Henry Grinnell, of New York, and Mr. George Peabody, formerly of Danvers, Massachusetts, now a banker of the city of London : " " St. J o h n ' s N ew f oundland, June 16, 185 3 . Here we are, safe and sound, at St. John's, I will delay at this place not one hour beyond absolute necessity. Inglefield will soon be at Disco, and I am most anTious to catch him. My stay, therefore, will be only until the oxen are slaughtered ; and the butcher promises their de livery at 4 a.m. to-morrow. " The kindness of these good people surpasses. concep tion. The governor gave me an elegant dinner at hie man sion this afternoon, and our vessel has been overrun with visitors. "Three p.m.—l have taken in nearly 1,2001b5. of prime fresh beef, rubbed in with salt and saltpetre, and then marled it down with twine, and hung it in the rigging, carefully shielded from the sun with canvas. " The governor, Mr. Hamilton, is a brother of the Secre tary to the Admiralty. He takes a great interest in the expedition, and has presented me with a fine team of trained dogs, accompanied by four barrels of seal flippers, used for their food. This present is very valuable. I have pur chased for them a set of harness and a sledge. " The governor, his lady, the surveyor general, and the officers of the regiment, visit us at nine, and by ten o'clock I hope to be under way for Disco. " Snow shoes and moose skin, of very good quality and cheap, I have also obtained, and also fresh, or rather quar ter-cured, salmon, which costs but threepence per pound, and will be, I think, a useful winter diet. " The Newfoundlanders are about to make a large con tribution to your Industrial Exhibition. The vessel leaves on Tuesday with Messrs. Winter and Moore, as superin tendents. The process of seal fishing is illustrated by a model, and stuffed specimens of the seals accompany it. " The letter preceding this will tell you how well satis fied lam with the officers and men. Both work with a will, and I think and hope are beginning to get attached , to me. I allow no swearing on deck, or to the crew, and no threats as to knocking down, &c., which I find to be rather a favourite performance in the merchant service. Neither is any liquor used on board." THE CAMP.—It is stated that the encampment will be broken up finally on the 25th instant ; and it is also rumoured that on the 16th Lord Seaton will resign the command of the troops to the Duke of Cambridge. ACCIDENT ON THE LONDON AND SOUTH-COAST RAIL wAY.—Mr. W. Payne held an inquest at Guy's Hospi tal yesterday on the body of Mr. N. J. Whitcombe, a solicitor, carrying on business at No. 14, Buckingham street, Strand, but residing at Cheam, in Surrey. Mr. William Davis, a leather-seller, of Gracechurch-street, said himself and the deceased, who lived in the same neighbourhood, went together to the station at London bridge on Thursdaynight last, for the purpose of going by the train to Cheam, on the London and Brighton Railway. As it was late when they got to the railway witness got into a first-class carriage, but the deceased got into one of the second-class. The train then started, and when it got to New-cross witness looked out of the carriage-window and saw deceased in the act of stepping out of the carriage while it was yet in motion, for the purpose, as he supposed, of coming to him in the same carriage. At the same moment he was twisted round, and fell between the platform and the carriages. As the carriages went along he felt terrified, for he thought he felt the crushing of the head of the deceased. When the train stopped they found the deceased jammed between the footboard of the carriage and the platform. With the assistance of a porter he got him out, and then found that the footboard had caught his left thigh, and had completely stripped the flesh from the thigh to the knee. The deceased wished to be taken home, but he thought it better that he should be taken to the hospital. The company accordingly put on a special train, and he was immediately brought up. On his arrival he was in a state of collapse. Mr. Birkett, the house-surgeon, did all in his power, but he never recovered his sensibility, and died on Satnrday morning. In answer to the coro. ner, the witness said deceased was a sober man. They had both been dining at Cordwainer's-hall, but deceased and himself were perfectly sober. There was no blame due to the company, as it was entirely his own act, through stepping from the train while it was in motion. He was sorry to say that the deceased had left a widow and six children to lament his loss, The jury returned a verdict of accidental death. A CLERGYMAN GAROTTED.—A daring outrage of this kind was perpetrated at Worcester on Thursday night, and has caused no small consternation in that city. The circumstances are these :—The Rev. George St. John, who resides in Britannia-square, Worcester, was return- • ing home from a party, shortly before eleven o'clock on Thursday evening, and had approached within a short distance of his house, when he heard some men walking rapidly behind him ; but he took no notice of them, not having any suspicion that they enter tained any evil intentions towards himself. Pro ceeding onwards, he r eached his door, and was in the act of raising his hand to the door-bell, when he was ri applied sevtehnrtea ta.n tightly yHi over s assailed by two men, and felt a h an d ph arms s h w is mereoaultsho, heldand another firnily grasping eeaete re sistance being made. The rev. gentleman struggled violently against his assailants, but they pove t r h d h too strong e closely f i o u r see h e i i m hier d .w th h r e o n tt e l e ed use l i i e im usu s es o returned a h t e fo e un b d ec h a i m m e . self at the door, and was not aware that he had been upon the ground. It seems that the servants at the house were expecting his return, and, that hearing a shuffling at the door, one of them looked from an upper window and saw a man lying on the ground with two others leaning over him, but she supposed them to be a drunken party. Soon afterwards she saw two of the men place the third against the wall as though he was unable to stand, and she thought they had deter mined to leave him. A quarter of an hour after, hoii ever, the servants heard a knocking at the door, and a feeble voice, which they mistook for that of a drunken man, and it was with some difficulty that Mr. St. John made them understand that it was he who was knock ing. On their opening the door they saw their waste?' with his face covered with blood, and he was so mn?h injured and exhausted that medical assistanc e liiid to n ,F . : called in. The rev. gentleman is still very ill- . ff. thieves robbed him of a gold watch, a purs e eor ;;.la ac::: a 5/. note, and four sovereigns, a gol d ke y , g gold eyeglass, and other articles. .. from t h e RUSSIAN MODERATION. —The follorg t. p e rsia's Independance Beige of Sunday is signr froui Constan turn has come :—" Our corresponden o e nfirnss the asser• tinople, bearing date the 18th, Lord de Redcliffe.
