71 t* 31/LITARY The remains of the late Lieetenanteeolond Nlac gregor, of the sth Reyat Scotch. Fasilers. were in terred rith military honours, en Tuesday. the 13th fu- of January, at St. Andrew's church, Pl) mouth. I nerel I)arty, under the command of Lieutenant-Colo: , e 1. Johnsol, sth Fusileers, and consisting of 2 captains, 4 subaltern, 6 sergeants, and 300 rank and file. of the sth Fusileers, paraded in the citadel a little before two o'clock. The colours on the ramparts were half-most high, and in order t o consult the feelings of the widow of . the deceased, the utmost silence prevailed within the garrison, the gates of which were closed. Previous to the removal of the body, and at the especial request of the ft Icily, a portion of the service for the dead was, in their presence, read by the Rev. J. W. Langmead, the resident chaplain. Shortly after two o'clock, the procession slowly moved from the citadel. The funeral party, carrying their arms reversed, and marching tour abreast, was followed by the band of the regiment, which, with muffled drums, commenced the solemn notes of " The Dead March in Saul," as soon as they had cleared the foot of the glacis. The miuisters, the Rev. J. W, Line-mead and the Rev. H. flookey, with the undertakers and other civilians, in hatbands and mourn • ing habiliments, preceded the body, which was borne on a long six-pounder gun carriage, drawn by four plumed horses, led by grooms. On the carriages were tw am munition chests, and en the coffin were the, Colonel's sword, cap, and The pall bearers were Colonel Barlow, of the 14 h Rgi m, nt, a colonel of the Royal Marines, a Colonel of Artillery. a Staff-Offie. r, and four others of the same rank as the dots aced, whose seddled charger followed hi,. rtristt-r's 11.4 y, b. arise hls hool, and spurs. The chief.rn(nrners were Dr. Henderson. sth Regiment, 1)r. William Wallace, 14th, and Colonel 01.1 field, Royal Engineers. Next came, with side arms only, about 250 rank and file, belonging to the 14th de pot; and about 600 of the sth, being the remainder of those off duty belonging to that regiment, followed by the sergoants, sergeants-major, and ether non commis sioned officers of both regiments. The mournful train was closed by an imposing cortege of officers of various ranks, military and naval, all on toot, in full uniform and in reversed order, beginning with cadets, ensigns, mid shipmen, and other junior officers, and ending with the seniors, the last of whom was Major. General Slither land, formerly Colonel of the sth regiment, who was sup ported by two aides-de camp. As the imposing pr,ces mon, with measured step, debouched troto this terminable fortress, ar,d extended its length along the Ci.ad 1 road, its warlike appearance was finely contrasted by the more quiet attire of the large concourse of civilians who had assemblied outside the lines, and partly covered the green slopes of the fortifications. All business was suspended as the funeral moved through the town by Saltram place, I.ockaer street, George-street, and Bedford street, to St. Andrew's church. Here the firing part), under Colonel Johnson, halted, and allowed their cernrades to pass between them, and proceed by the eastern ntrauce into the venerable fabric, where they were received by Messrs. Bonn and llingston, the churchwardens, and the other church functionaries. After the first portion of the solemn service had been read, the body was removed on the shoulders of eight men of the sth Regiment, by the northern entrance into the adjoining burying place, in the nerth•west portion of which the remains were to be finally deposited. The sons of the deceased, two little boyseavere led by Colonel Oldfield from the church to the side of their father's grave. On the completion of the funeral service, Colonel Johnson's party fired over his grave three rounds of three hundred small arms, the report of which reverberated from the centre to the extremities of the town. The military then returned to the citadel. To secure good order Major-General Murray, Commander of the Forces for the Western District, had previously communicated with Mr. Bulteel, the Mayor of Plymouth, under whose di rections the police of the borough were in attendance. The imposing spectacle had attracted to the spot not only the inhabitants of the three towns of Plymouth, Devonport, and Stonehouse, but great numbers of well dressed persons.from the surrounding country. Colonel Macgregor served in Calabria in 1806, and was present at the battle of Maids and taking of Catrone. In 1807 he served in Egypt, and was present at the attack on the forts and heights of Alexandria, siege of Rosetta, and actions at El Hamet, where he was taken prisoner, and kept in close confinement for five mouths in Cairo. Served also in the campaign of 1814-15 in Holland and the Netherlands, including both the actions at Merxen and the bombardment of Antwerp. THE REPUBLIC OF ECUADOR. The notoriety which has been given to this republic by the late breaking up of the Flores expedition, and the disclosures which have since been made at the Thames Police Court, may render the following account of the republic of Ecuador, to the Presidency of which General Flores now aspires to be restored, of some in terest to our readers: — Ecuador is one of the three republics which, before 1831, constituted the republic of Colombia, but since that time has become a separate government. It com prehends the ancient kingdom of Quito with the plains extending east of it, between the Amazon River on the south, and the Uaupes, the principal branch of the Rio Negro on the north. The Rio Negro separates Ecuador from the republic of Venezuela, and the Uaupes forms, in the whole length of its course, the boundary between it and New Grenada. The Pacific forms its western boundary. On the south, Ecuador is separated from Peru by a line beginning near Tambez, on the Bay of Guayaquil, and running in the south-west direction to the Rio Amazon. Ecuador extends from 5 deg. 50 min. S. lat. to 1 deg. 12 min. N. lat., and fro:n 69 deg. 40 mm. to 80 deg. 40 min. W. long. Its surface is vaguely cal culated at more than 537,000 square miles, or more than four times and a half the area of the British islands. CLIMATE.—The temperature differs considerably in the elevated valleys, which are surrounded by the high peaks of the Andes, and in the low countries on both sides of the range. In the valley of Quito the seasons are scarcely perceptible. The mean temperature of the day all the year round is between sixty and sixty-seven de grees, and that of the night between forty-eisht and fifty-two degrees of Fahrenheit. The winds blow con tinually, but never with great violence. They generally come from the north or south, but occasionally shift to other quarters, without apparently depending in any degree on the seasons. During the whole morning till one or two o'clock, the weather is generally delightful, and the sky serene and clear, but after this hour vapours begin to rise, and the whole sky is gradually covered with black clouds, which bring on dreadful tempests of thunder and lightning, followed by torrents of rain. At sunset the weather generally clears up, and the nights are as serene as the mornings. The rains sometimes continue all night, and occasionally three or four days in succession. At other times a few fine days without rain follow one another. The interval between Septem ber and May is called the winter, and the remainder of the year is summer. The winter is only distinguished by a greater quantity of rain, arid the summer by a greater number of fine days. The valleys are also sub ject to frequent earthquakes, of which those of 1698 and 1797 were partcu!arly destructive. In the last earth quake 40,000 inhabitants are stated to have perished in the valleys, and it is said that the climate of Quito has become much colder than it was formerly. PRODUCTIONS —Agriculture varies with the elevation of the cultivated line above the level of the sea. Near the snow line, which in this point of the Andes occurs at the height of 15,750' feet, the vegetation of the Para mos (that tract on the summit of the range, from 11,000 to 14,000 feet above the sea) is extremely scanty, con sisting only of two or three species of plants. Districts situated at an elevation of 10,000 feet are covered with Dean, which afford good sheep waks. Such are the plains in the mountain knot of Pastos. The culture of European corsalia and fruits prevails between 10,000 and 4,000 feet, especial!} in the great valley of the Andes. In those parts of the country which do not exceed in elevation 4.000 feet above the sea, the vegetables culti vated for food are chiefly sweet potatoes, mandioc,sa, yams, and bananas, with rice, Indian corn, and some leguminous plants. The most common fruit trees are pine apples, papayas, and aronas. Amongst the forest trees is that which gives the Anchor.a. bark. Sheep and cattle are reared in great numbers, especially in the val!ey of the Andes, and on the higher declivities of the mow:tame. Bosses, asst., and mules, are sufficiently numerous to be articles of, export. In some dis(rets, especially in the val.eys along the coast, a considerable quantity of wax is collected, and still higher up iire some snots where the cochineal insect is re fired. Ecua dor is less rich in the pr:cioui metals than the other countries of South America, which comprehend a pot tion of the Andes. There are several mines of gold a:d silver, and a few are still work-d; but the annual pro dues is not considerable. Lad and quicksilver occur in some !daces, and in others sulphur is prepared in conside rable qu tntitles. Salt is obtained from sea water along the coast. . . . _ _ rOIjULATION.—T e population of the Ecuador is coin= prised o the cli-scondants of Spaniards and the Ahoriginea. The proportion of both races i 4 not stated, but it would • appear that the aborigines constitute at least three -fourths of the population. Those Indians who inhabit the elevated valleys. belong to- the: race of Peruvian., and - speak the QuiChna language; they are- mostly agricul turists, analcultivate their lands with much care. They apply themselves also to Manufactures, and make coarse stuffs of wool and cotton. The In.liaas who inhabit the eastern plain are much lower in eivil!,ation; they cold: vai.e only KUMI pieces of ground, and apply themselves lmost exclusively to fishing a- d hunting. The Jesuits !Lt . !made • considerably progress in bring=er then: to tha,ve l'riat t i a anity and civilisation. The pulitiedi ev- !its which x t ultt since 1812 have driven the m Tilts ou of- thenountvy il the missions are in ruins, ' and the Indians have returned to tke forests, and lost al! n=arks of civilisation. The whole population was thought to amo unt in 1827 0. th to 492,000, with the exception of the Indian brav os pla in.

The fabric is coarse, but strong and durable, and was formerly in great req uest in New Grenada and in several seaports. All the n ,. ritime commerce of Ecuador is concentrated in Guaya quil, from which : town there is a road to Quito ; the great read which connects New Grenada and Peru runs through the valley of Ecuador. Ecuador was discovered by Francis Pizarro, in 1523, and came into the hands of the Spaniards at the downfal of the empire of the Incas. spaiiihrds remained in possession of the country . up to the year 1812, when the country declared against At: WS IVI s"' • !'y the convention , • of Cucuta in 1821, New Gre r----• -_ • Venezuela united and formed on e re p ublic •,r,. t name Of - Colombia.

ON THE STATISTICS OF CRIME. The paper read before the Statistical Section of the British Association, at their great meeting at Southamp ton in September last, by F. P. Neison, Esq., has since been published in the Statistical Journal. This most udmirat le and elaborate paper, presenting an analysis of crime in the several counties of England and Wales for the years 1842, 1843, 1844, shows the relative criminal state of manufacturing and agricultural dis tricts, es well as of the population of different ages and both sexes. By a most laborious series of corrections and comparisons, it is not only proved that given ages invariably produce given amounts of crime, compared with the gross crime of the whole population ; but, also, that there is an index, and only one, by which crime may be computed, and this is the grade of education of the population. This curious discovery must have the most important results, when made known generally, for it proves that ignorance is the pri - nt of crime, and that even the small amount of primary education obtained by our working classes raises them comparatively above the commission of legal offences. Thus it appears from the general ac count of crimes committed, there are 21 female to 100 male criminals, and only 19 female to 100 male criminals between the ages of 20 to 29. Again, of male population 1 in every 336 commits a crime annuall - , while only 1 in 1,581 females has been charged with offences; showing the tendency to crime of our males to be about five to one of that of our females, The vast importance of influencing the character of boys from 15 to 20 is deducible from the above, for that period is the one giving the greatest amount of crime (except the succeeding five) ears from 20 to 25, which gives about ten per cent. more), the numbers being trom 15 to 20, 16,534, and from 20 to 25, 18,056. Crime, from this time of life, among males, decreases at the rate of about 33 per cent. for every quinquennial period of life. The results to be expected from evening schools, reading-rooms, lectures, and cheap libraries for the in struction and innocent amusement of males from 15 to 25, under these circumstances, become more important, as basing a direct ns well as indirect action on crime far more every greater effort for giving moral and re.: li g i ou s impressions. Hitherto youth on been greatly tiegh cteu at this period of lite; the only efforts at edu cation and religious training being made previous to the fifteenth year, efforts generally ceasing altogether when the tendency to crime rises to its greatest intensity. _By a comparison of counties (tables being d ra wn up tor each), we find in the manufacturing counties, Lancaster giving crimes fer all ages, 1 in 290 inhabitants; Stafford, 1 in 268; Leicester, 1 in 246; Warwick, 1 in 236; Worcester, 1 in 221. While of the purely agricultural counties—Sussex. 1 in 362; Westmoreland, 1 in 1,040; Oxford, 1 in 302; Hants, 1 in 342; Dorset. 1 in 456; Cornwall, 1 in 762; Cumberland, 1 in 1,061. It the whole group (says Mr. N. ison) of the gre at northern and midland mining and manufacturing districts be taken, it e ill be seen that there is exactly 2.3 per cent. less crime than would be according to the average for all England and Wales; while in the agricultural counties there is an excess of 5.9 per cent. Again, if the various groups of the manufacturing and mining districts be ex amined, it will be found that in the northern mining districts, which includes Cumberland, Northumberland, and Durham, crime is 52 . 1 per cent. below the average, and in the cotton and woollen manufacturing districts, including Lancashire and Yorkshire, crime is 7 per cent. under the average of the whole country. But on the oth r hand, in the two remaining districts, the one com posing the cotton, efbollere and lace fabric district, in cluding Chester, Derby, Nottingham, and leicester, and the other composing the hardware, pottery, and glass manufacturing districts, including Staffordshire, War wickshire, and Worcestershire, there is an excess of crime of 8.5 per cent. in the former, and 33.5 per cent. in the latter, above the average of the whole kingdom. Contrasting the various sections of the agricultural group with them, they will be seen to present a remark able uniformity. The excess of crime in the first division being 5.3 per cent., in the second 5.7 per cent., and in third 6•8 per cent., while the excess for the whole of the agricultural districts combined has been shown to be 5.9 per cent. It is evident that there is something in the mining anti manufacturing condition of the people having a powerful influence in regulating the amount of crime; as in one portion, including Staffordshire and Worcestershire, there is an excess of 33.5 per cent.; while in another, consisting of Cumberland, Northum berland, and Durham, crime is 52 per cent. below the average. A group of counties, having the smallest ratio of agriculturists, gives a ratio of crime 4.6 per cent. above the average. Another in which the ratio of agri culturists is the highest, also 4•6 above the average; the highest ratio of manufacturers 17.7 per cent. of crime above the average; least ratio of manufacturers 2•9 less than the average ; agriculture and manufacture equal, 4.5 above the average. Counties of the greatest wealth e., having the greatest number of inhabitants of in dependent means, 8.8 less than the average, and those of the least wealth P 1 below the average. There is no satisfactory test of education, but if the autograph signature of names in marriage registers, com pared with the number of marks, be considered some thing approaching to it, we may obtain this, and apply it to the average of crime in different districts. Now, the average of those males who make their marks, to those who sign their names in marriage registers, since the New Marriage Act, is 33 per cent. It will be recollected, too, that the age of the greatest ' crime and of the greatest number of marriages is about similar. Mr. Nelson has prepared a variety of tables showing groups of counties which have the greatest number of marks, giving also their average of crime. From these it appears that in the first group, containing Lancaster, Stafford, Monmouth, Chester, and Warwick, where the greatest ratio of marks is found, the highest amount of crime exists; while in a group of Durham, Surrey, Northumberland, Derby, Gloucester, where the least ratio of marks exists, there also the crime is consi derably below the average of England. Taking Ve eleven most agricultural counties, we find those which give the greatest amount of marks exceed in the ratio of crime as 16 is to 15; while those which have the least amount of marks (though some are a little over the average) show a ratio of crime just above the average. In the table of the ten greatest manufacturing counties (including Middlesex), the greatest number of marks (indicating the least education) is again accompanied by crime in excess above the averge of 24'8 per cent., or excluding Lancashire, 48 per cent.; in the section of highest education the excess of crime is 24-2 per cent.., and excluding Middlesex only 16.4 per cent. Again, in the table of least maeufactuing counties, the excess of 4•3 of crime exists with least education, and with highest education crime is 81 below the average. In the ma nufacturing group of counties it is seen that in the sec tion of least education crime is 15.8 per cent. above the average, but in the section of most education 7.2 per cent. below the average; in the prominently agricultural counties, with the lowest grade of education, crime is in excess 10 4 per cent., but where the highest grade of education exists crime is below the average 2.6 per cent., and in every instance it appears, after examining a variety of combinations in the tables, that an increase of crime is associated with a low state of education. All the other combinations and arrangements made to deter mine the actual element in the increase and decrease of crime were unsuccessful, and produced no satisfactory result ; in fact, they did not lead to the discovery of any condition or circumstances of life which was peculiar to one district more than another, as affording an index of crime; but as soon as the educational test is intro duced, it immediately analyses groups and districts into a uniform and regular series, which before showed the most contradictory results, If a few exceptions ap peared, they might suglest the propriety of a still fur ther refinement in the analysis, but the regularity is so remarkable, that it immediately becomes evident that one very powerful element, at least, had been deter mined, and ono on which legislation and preventive mea-urea may easily be founded for the reduction of crime and the elevation of the moral condition of the people. RESTORATI . N OF LLANDAFF CATIIEDRAL. The Dean has just issued what he says be wishes to be a simple business like statement of the application by the Chapter of the funds solicited for this purpose, in order to give confidence to the public mind of the dis cretion with which they are employed in the work of gradual restoration. He observes, that we ought not to despair because we are constrained to proceed slowly and gradually, since the original construction of the fa bric must have been equally gradual; from itslcommence ment by Bishop Urban, in 1120, at least 60 years must have elapsed before the completion of the nave; and an other 80 in addition before the eastern chapel was ap pended. The Dean then explains what has beer already d.,ne, and what is now in hand, and in immediate con templation ; the eastern chapel has been completely re stored at an expense of 1.1651. 12s. Odd the eastern ex tremity of the south aisle, with its fiee windows and open work parapets, is now in progress, and is estimated at the cost of under 30.0/. The next proposed alteration is the restoration of the choir. The present winter is dedicited to !Is - s indoor work, and the present state of the funds are o ,nsidered as adequate to the completion of the lower story as h.gh as the Italian cornice ; the balance remaining in the banker's hands is stated at 9251., and of the sums subscribed 1,0001. still remain to be called in. We understand, that since printing this report, works have been actively commenced in the choir at its easier!, end. A noble Norman arch of 'Bishop LTrean's work has been opened Out, commairt mg a striking perspective-into the Eastera Chapel ; the mouldings of this arch are very interesting, and in the most perfect preservation. Beneath this a very beautiful screen of Bishop Marshall's work, A.D. 1480, has been exposed. A squichral recess, in which the capitals of the side-shafts are most beautifully executed, in the style of 1200, is likewise now again disclosed to view in the south-east wall of the choir. Tradition assigns this as the tomb of St. Teilo, or rather of one of his three corpses; for the legends of the Book of Llandaff relate, that on his decease three churches with which the was connected contested for the possession of so precious a relic. It was on this miraculously multiplied for the aft ti4action of all their pious desires; the parties agreed to refer the controversy to the decision of a sign from heaven. They spent the night in watching on their knees around the single corpse ; but the first rays of morning disclosed three corpses lying before them abso lutely identical in every lineament. To turn from the legends of superstition to gratifying realities, we are happy to learn that his Grace the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury has just transmitted a dona tion of 50/. to this desirable work ; also the Lcrd Bishop of Bangor, 50/. ; and lately the Lord Bishop of St. Asaph, 501:—Cambrian. CHINESE CDMMERCE.—A vessel named the Hugh Walker, arrived in the London-docks from Girton, has brought 6.700 bugs of raw sugar, t , esides 146 casks of sundries, 2,190 rolls of matting, 500 packages of cassia lignea, 30 chests of rhubarb, and other articles , the pro duce of the Celestial Falpire, MYSTERIOUS DENTH AT HAM MERSMITH. On Saturday the inquiry in this case again resumed. Mr. Howell, a solicitor, of Welshpool, attended to watch the proceedings on behalf of deceased's family ; and Inspector Morgan, T division, and Sergeant Scot ney, T 21, on the part of the police. The first witness called was— Anne Wheeler ' a middle aged female, whose face bore evidence of her having been engaged in a terrible en counter with some person, both eyes being blackened down to the middle of the cheek, the other portions of her face showing bruises and lacerations, extending down to her neck. She had an infant, about two months old, in her arms. She deposed that she was a single woman, and had lived with the deceased as his wire for nearly four years. On the night of Saturday, the 9th inst.. she went to bed about three o'clock. The deceased had fits in the daytime, and had become right of erwards. At three o'clock deceased west down stairs get a pipe, when he told het to get into bed to the two children, which she did. Deceased remained down stairs about a quarter of an hour, and then came up and sat (loan by the fire and smoked his pipe until about four o'clock in the morning. Did not then see him again until five o'clock, when she heard his son say, " He's gone ! he's gone !" and she instantly jumped up and untied the handkerchief, and loosened his neck and laid him on the floor. By the Jury—Deceased and witness bad quarrelled in the afternoon of Saturday, but not that night. The son did not inflict the injuries on witness's fare. Mr. Thomas Griffiths, surgeon, deposed that he had made a post mortem exam nation et' the body of the de co ased, and from the appearances he found he had not the slightest doubt that the deceased died from strangu lation, arising from hanging. Deceased was a remarkably fine man ; witness had never before seen a person with muscular power more fully developed. The DEPUTY-CORONER —Are you quite sure, from the examination you have made of the body of the deceased, that he could not have been strangled by others, and placed by them in the position in which he was found ? Mr. Griffiths-4 am quite sure on that point. A Juror—Supp, sing that the deceased became acci dentally strangled, during one of the fits to which he was subject. and that nraduced insensibility, would not the appearances he had described be the same ? Mr. Griffiths replied that he should doubt that the deceased was strangled during a fit which might produce insensibility. as the marks showed that strangulation had occurred during life. Mr. Howell then addressed the Deputy-Coroner, saying, that from the information he had received, he believed that means had been employed by the son and Wheeler to influence the deceased to draw up a will in her favour. He had come up there on the part of the deceased's family, in consequence of another will, which was in the hands of Mr. Howell, at Welshpool, to see to the funeral of the deceased, but he found that a subse quent will had been executed by which Wheeler would be largely benefited, as she was to receive 501. immedi ately, and also a sum of 521 per annum. By that will, he was precluded acting. There was, however, an inforinality in it. The DEPUTY-CORONER heie interrupted Mr. Howell, by saying that he could not go into that, part of the in quiry, that was a matter which must be settled in another court. Mr. Rimell deposed that he was a butcher, and that on Saturday evening defendant came to his shop about ten o'clock; he was very rational, but much excited. De ceased said he had been very much ill treated in his house, and that he would get rid of the set he had about him; and that if witness knew the state of his heart be would pity him. Witr.ess believed deceased's excite ment arose from Wheeler having bad meat at witness's shop without his knowledge. Witness was not surprised when he heard that deceased had destroyed himself. Thomas Richards was next examined, and corrobo rated the evidence of the son and Wheeler, and swore most positively that there was no scuffling in the bed room during the night. Elizabeth Richards deposed that she lived next door to the deceased. On the night in q9estion, while she was in bed, she heard violent scuffling in the deceased's bed room, which was only separated by a thin partition. It commenced about eight o'clock in the evening, but from nine o'clock there was great disturbance until about half past three o'clock on the Sunday morning. Deceased and Wheeler talked very loud. It was about the trades men's books. It commenced about some beef and beer which had been put down without deceased's knowledge. Wheeler swore she had not had it. Deceased went out, about it, and returned, saying she had had it, but she again swore that she had not. The DEPUTY-CORONER here asked Mrs. Richards if she did not think from what she had heard that the de ceased had died by his own act?—Mrs. Richards replied she did not think the deceased had hung himself. The DEPUTY-CORONER said that was all imagination. There they had before them the evidence of a medical gentleman of known ability and character, who had most positively expressed his conviction that deceased had hung himself. He would not go into the case any further, and if the parties were not satisfied they might take the matter to the police court. The Deputy-Coroner then proceeded to address the jury, contending that there was full evidence before them that the deceased had hung himself, and desired those jurors who were in favour of a verdict—" That the deceased hung himself, being at the time in an unsound state of mind," should hold up their hands, and that those in favour of--" Found banging, but how he became so. or the state of his mind at the time, there Was not sufficient evidence to show," to hold up theirs. Two hands only were held up for the first verdict, and seven for the second. The other juror, did not vote. strangers were then ordered to withdraw. During the interim, Mr. Howell took the witness Harrison into another room and questioned her very closely as to what she had heard, and at the conclusion he said there must be another further examination into the matter, which was a most mysterious one. The public were re-admitted in about half an hour, and The DEPUTY-CORONER said the jury had returned a verdict, " That the decease d had died from hanging, by his own act, and that he was in a state of unsound mind at the time he committed the deed." The verdict eicited the greatest surprise. THE WEATHER and the PARKS DREADFUL ACCIDENTS ON THE ICE IN ST. JAM PARK. The frost still continues with increased severity, and consequently the various Parks were thronged with thousands of visitors during yesterday. At midnight on Saturday the thermometer at the receiving- house of gsihdreepaS wt ticulars of the proceedings the Royal Humane Society in Hyde Park was as low as 27, but at eight o'clock yesterday morning it had risen two degrees, viz., to 29, and at noon to 30.

In consesuence of the rotten state of the ice, the men belonging to the Royal Humane Society tried to keep the skaters to one portion o f t h e froz e n surface which was safest, but without effect, and the result was, that during the day immersion after int o, d a ngerous state of the ice, and the im mersion kept continually taking place. Mr. Williams, on seeing minent peril that hundreds were placed in, felt it his duty to send additional men. The services of Dr. M'Cann and two assistants were also required from eleven o'clock until five in the evening in attending on i the persons who became immersed. The icemen on Parties t duty had enough to do. and frequently during the da y their lives were placed i n imminent peril in rescuing the foolhardy persons who would venture upon places where they were told not to go. Severaarties lof the machines he water. were br, ken during the rescuing of The iollewing is a list of persons who had a very narrow escape of their hveir, and who must inevitably have icemen : At eleven o'cleck. l Cl. of perished but for the prais ewo rthy Samue exertionsark of the No. 25, King's Head-court, Holborn, broke into ten feet water, opposite the marquee, which was the most dan gerous part of the • ice, and near which nearly all the a accidents happened ; he was r escued by iceman Charles Harris, assisted by Deputy - Sup erintendent Gedfre y . The text accident happened to John Morgan, residin g . at 5, Victoria-road, Pimlico, who was rescued b y icetnan Dti Foot. rr i a y- About ne.h broke oohnee intoo' c 1 ett ten Tfeheotln watister, W , o aouldhtc rescued c l u 4 e 2 d , by . iceman Harris. At two o'ci c ck, iceman Knapp, with Deputy-Superi n t e nd e nt Godfrey, whilst endeav our i ng to rescue a pers o n, whose name cou ld not be ascertai ned. residing at No. 91. Commercial, r oad, became immersed in ten feet wat er , K na pp being under for nearl y a minute. On being g o t ou t, h e was conveyed to the mar q ue e in a was h, dangerous state. Shortly after this, John Dawe, re siding at No. 10, willow.-walk, Hackney-road, broke through into six feet water, but was rescued by iceman J. Cox. About four o'clock, thre e p ersons, residing at No. 8, Little Newport-street, Leicester-square ; 55, Bond-street, and 6, * Bull's Head court, Smithfield, but whose names, owing to the contusion which prevailed, could not be ascertained, broke into five feet water, but were rescued by icemen J. and W. Cox. In conveying them to the marquee the crowd was so great that the men had the greatest difficulty in getting there. The last accident happened at halt-past four, to John Sallis, residing at 4, Vine-street, Waterloo-road, by breaking into five feet water, and remaining under upwards of a minute. lie was rescued by deputy superintendent God frey, who also got immersed in resuing him. Many of the cases were of such a dangerous character as to com pel them to remain in the marquee until a late hour last evening. At one time the cases were so numerous that six persons were obliged to receive medical attendance at once, and there being but two beds, three were placed in each, and the seventh remained in the warm bath for a short time. The persons who witnessed the accidents complained that the police or the park-keepers would have been doing their duty most properly in not allowing any one to venture on the ice. REGENT'S PARK. —The ice in this park was very elan• gerous, but the number of skaters and sliders exceeded 20,000. O& of this twiny*. umber but ow ,flight immersion occurred to a gentleman named Puttick, re siding in High-street, Marylebone, who having received attention at the marquee was enabled to go home. During the day a great number of persons were severely wounded by falls, and were surgically attended at the marquee. iNCE. POLICE INTELLIGE MANSION-HOUSE. The Lord Mayor gratefully expressed his receipt of 101. for the poor-box, from the Fishmongers' Company, and requested our reporter to give notice to that effect in a paragraph. THE LATE RAILWAY SHARE CASE.—The following will supply an accidental omission in the report of the proceedings in the justice-room on Friday. • Mr. Margetson, after the discharge of the three per sons who were charged with having conspired to defraud him of tooL, stated to the L..rd Mayor that he con sidered it but fair to assure hi, L. irdship that the gentle. than named Richard Fennell, wit.) resided in Alderman bury, and who had introduced Mr. Scanlan to him, was 1 altogether blameless in the transaction. Mr. Fennell ap prehended that an unfavourable impression had been made by the public mention of his name in connexion with this affair, and hoped that justice would he done to his character by the candid acknowledgment of the com plainant that he had not the most remote idea of any dishonourable intention on the part of Mr. Scanlan, whom he had introduced. The LORD MAYOR said he was persuaded that there would be no hesitation on the part of the press to give publicity to the statement made by Mr. Margetson. MARLB:ROUGH-STREET. CAUTION TO OMNIBUS CONDUCTORS. —.John Long, a conductor of one of the Islington to Chelsea omnibuses, was charged with having wilfully deceived a lady with respect to the route of his vehicle. The complainant said she was in company with another lady at the time she hailed the defendant in Holborn, and inquired if he went to Tottenham-court road. The defendant replied in the affirmative. and complainant and friend got into the omnibus. The de fendant set her down in Piccadilly, and when remon strated with in reference to the deception practised, merely laughed at them. The complainant said there ' was a notice on the omnibus, showing the route to be by way of Tottenham-court-road, but this notice the con ductor took off and placed under the seat. The defendant said he did not hear the lady ask if he went to Tottenham-court-road, otherwise ho should not have taken her into the omnibus. Mr. HAnnwicxz said the conduct of the defendant in deceiiing the lady as to the route of his omnibus was quite inexcusable. It was fortunate for him that the second lady was not present to prefer a similar complaint, otherwise he should have inflicted a second fine of equal severity. For the offence, as proved by evidence, he should fine the defendant 20s. and costs. LAMBETH. STURDY BEGGARS.—Two Poles, one of whom desig nated himself as Count Domhicki, and falsely represents himself to be the cousin to the last King of Poland, and Joseph Baciboski, both of _theta regular and impudent cadgers, were finally examined on a charge of going to the houses of several gentlemen in the neighbourhood of Streatham, obtruding themselves into the houses, and asking subscriptions in so impudent a tone and manner as to alarm several ladle.). Tht• worth►es have been frequently sent to the tread-mill for a similar offence, and on one occasion the count was accompanied in his victimising excursions by a young lady not more than 25 (he himself being at least 6u), who represented her self as the countess. The Gentleman who is secretary to the Association of the Friends of Poland, said that the prisoners had been assisted by the Association until they ascertained their character, and they then declined to have any thing further to do with them. They were gross im postors„their characters the most disreputable, and were not, iu fact, entitled to the slightest sympathy. Their conduct, he said, brought great shame and disgrace upon their exiled countr) men, and he beggt d to take that opportunity of sa)ing that every one of those persons who, like the prisoners, had r presented themselves as Poles, and solicited relief, were, to a man, impostors ; for he was happy to say that every Pole of good cha teeter was affords d sufficient from the funds of the So ciety—at the head of which were the highest people in this country—to keep them from resorting to such a mode of living, andihe therefore thus publicly wished to warn the public against being imposed upon by such pale .ns. Mr. NORTON, after remarking upon the impudent conduct of the prisoners, sentenced them to three months' imprisonment, with hard labour, and added that he should take care to have their conviction returned to and recorded at the Quarter Sessions, so that if brought up again on a similar offence they might be treated as felons. CUCULTIVATION OF COT lON IN The hull Advertiser says, the Chamber of Commerce of tv.is port have agreed to present a mernoria to the East India Company, setting forth the advantages of an uniform culture of cotton in the East Ihdies, and praying that they will relieve this important article of c mmerce and manufacture from the tremendous local impo6ts by which it is fettered. The following is a co yof the memorial which was dispatched last night, and a copy of which was also forwardt d to the Board of Control: — "To the Honourable the Chairman, Deputy-Chairman, and Court of Directors of the East India Company, London. " The following memorial of the President, Vice-Presi dent, and Directors of the hull Chamber of Commerce, "Humbly sheweth,—That the importation of cotton wool, iu much larger quantities than hare hitherto been brought from In.tia, is bhcoming daily of increased im pnrtinee to Great Britain at large, and to the town o f Hull in particular. That the importation from all parts of India to the United Kingdom has been gradually decreasing for the last five years, the quantity entered in 1841 having been 273.000 bales (averaging in weight 3361b5. each), while in 1845 it only amounted to 155,000 bales ; showing a fallirnr off of 118,000 bales. " That the importation from America for the same time has increased from 890,000 bales, in 1841, to 1,490.000. in 1845, showing an increase of 600,000 bales. "Thai. in the opinion of your memorialists, the great reduction in the import of cotton from In,iia arist s prin cipally, if not entirely, from the h avy land- tax and transit-duns to which it is subject before it reach , s the sea coast ; these charges amounting to 75 per cent. on the average value of cotton in Bombay, viz. 2d. per lb. " That your memorialists find the cotton brought from Bombay of vary inferior quality, usually much stained from exposure, and mixed with seed and other waste, which incurs serious loss in weight, and expense in cleaning. " That your memorialists would therefore pray your Honourable Court to take these matters into your early and serious consideration, and adopt such measures as may induce European capitalists to invest m.,ney in, and make cotton growing in India, their business, your me morialists being of opinion that such measures would, by superior culture, ami.,rove the quality of the staple, lead to careful picking and clean packing, and ultimately bring the cotton trade of India to a state of periee . ion and extent that would, ere long, rival, it not exceed, that of America. " Your memorialists would further remark, that the production of cotton in the world is at this moment, in , sufficient to keep in full work the mills now actually t xisting in Great Britain. Further, that Hull, in which your memorialists ere more particularly interested, has become a tnanufacturinr place, and extensive mills are now Feing erected, which will double the present coa- Si" pt ion. " Your memorialists being of opinion that the true interests of the cotton-growing districts of India are the only means likely to induce an extensive aid profitable cultivation of that staple in those countries, by Euro ans, as well us natives, depend upon your honourable court reducing, so far as may be deemed advisable, the land-tax and other heavy charges to which the article is now subject, respecVully submit the necesity fur so doing. " And your memorialists, as in duty bound, will ever pray, &c. " Signed on behalf of himself, the vice-president, and directors of the Hull Chamber of Commerce, by " TI LOS. THOMSON, President. " Hull, January, 1847." TRADE 'WITH THE CAPTURED MEXICAN PORTS. Circular to Collectors and other officers of the Customs. Treasury Department, Dec. 16, 1846. I have to call your especial attention to the annexed circular instructions, heretofore issued, regulating the trade with Matamoros, Tampico, and any other port or place upon the Mexican side of the Rio Grande which may during the war pass into the actual possession of the forces of the United States, they being still in full force, and to which it is found expedient to add the fol lowing explanations and regulations with the view of affording every facility consistent with law to persons participating in said trade. It is to he observed that the trade is confined exclu sively to American vessels coming from foreign ports, or departing from our ports, with cargoes composed either of foreign goods on which the duties shall have been paid, or of articles of the growth, production, or manufacture of the United States. American vessels and their cargoes, departing from any friendly foreign port, and destined for either Mexi can ports before referred to, must first enter at some port of entry in the United States, and pay duty on their cargoes, and may thence take a clearance and pro ceed to either of the ports before stated, and land their cargoes thereat without payment of further duty or charges. Before granting a clearance in these cases, a manifest must be prepared in duplicate and sworn to by the master of the vessel, containing an exact description of the kind, quantity, quality, and value of the respec tive articles composing the cargo, and be submitted to the collector of the port. The collector will certify on one of the duplicate manifests the fact of the duties having been duly paid on all the dutiable foreign im ports described therein, and will deliver the same to the master of the vessel. retaining the other manifest amongst the archives of his office. All acts rendered necessary in pursuance of law, to determine the quantity, character, and value of imports, with a view to the assessment of the correct duty, must be complied with at the port of original entry in the United States. The landing being effected, and the duties secured, the goads may be either re-laden on board the same vessel or placed on board of another American vessel for transportation to either of the before-men tioned places in the manner herein indicated. It is desired, arid enjoined upon their respective officers of the customs, that every proper facility for the speedy dispatch of vessels and cargoes entering at their ports, and destined, as before stated, may be afforded. It is to be distinctly understood that no vessel will be allowed to proceed with a cargo, taken in at a foreign port, to either of the places before alluded to, without first entering and paying duty at some port of entry in the United States. Foreign goods warehoused in the United States cannot be withdrawn therefrom for exportation to the places mentioned, without payment of the import duty, nor can the duty paid on any foreign imports, be returned as drawback, on their exportation to either of the places referred to. It is deemed proper to add, that these instructions are not intended to interfere with any orders issued by 'the proper military authority, to exclude at the places indi cated, such articles, including spirituous liquors or contraband of war, the introduction of which may be considered injurious to our military operations in Mexico. Thee instructions being issued with the sanction of the President of the United States, it is expected that they will be conformed to by all officers of the United States, in every branch of the Government. R. J. WALKER, Secretary of the Treasury. MARYLEBONE *VESTRY. STREET-CLEANSING.-011Saturday, at the Marylebone Vestry, Mr. t!'ODEN brought fitrward a motion fur the app iiptment of a clmmittee to cottsid!.r the necessity of adopting measures fur the more erctual ele fusing of the thoroughfares of Mirylebone, and stated that this object had become necessary from the increased traffic which had taken place in some of the principal streets. Mr. ITABEERT oppmfed the motion, on the ground that those p. rsons residing in the principal thoreu.4hfar, s ought to pay the expenses wh'.eh wouid be incurred by this proposition, since it would be for their comfort in part icular. Mr. DANIELL suggested that the paupers in the parish might be employed in cleansing the streets, as they user' to he forme sly. The resulu'lon was carried, and a conamittee;appointed A communication having been read from the Lord expressino• his willingness to receive a depu tation on the subject of the Small Debts Bill, the vestry separated. DREADFUL POWDER MILL EXPLOSION. —EXETER, SATURDAY , NIGHT.—A tremendous explosion involving mehincholy consequences, took place on Thursday morn ing last, at the K , ltnal Vale Powder-mills, the property of Messrs. Samson and Lanyon, at Kennal, in the parish of Stithian's. The explOsiOn took place in the stamping mill, which was almost anew building, and was blown to atoms. Two men were working in the mill, named Martin and Dunstan, and these unfortunate individuals wir„ shockingly mutilated by the force of the explosion. A namh.r of persons on hearing the report congr, gated around the spot from the tieighbotoing village of Pons worth, end great was the lamentation among them, it not being known what family had been bereaved of its mem bers. The bodies . of the two men were soon known. Part of Dunstan's .bodY was blown into the river; his arms and one of his legs were rent from the body; his lace frightfully disfigured, and the whole remains in such a mantled condition that the) were obligati to be taken up in a sheet. Martin's body also presented a shocking appearance, the skull being blown entirely off: Both men were marii. - Id, but have left no children. THE MACKAREL FISHERY.— The catch of mackarel off the town during the week hAs been very great ; not kss than 40,000 having been brought in. One boat &one—the Sarah, Nat. Gunn—took ,11,000 fish on Wed nesday night, being the first nigat's shooting. They were very fine fish, tetched 13,. a hundred. Other boats have taken from 2,000 to 4,000 and 5,000 a night ; and fish are very plentiful, reducing the prices ron.l 365. to 18s. per hundred.. No news has been received from Plymouth, where there are still eight or ten Brighton boats, whilst 22 are employed off the town.—Briyhton Herald. A GOOSE PLUCKED BY A GOOSE.—The North British Adccrtiser tells a story of a family which lived on its wits upwards of a quarter of a century, (a feat which many families perform from generation to gene ration). At one time the gifted family had an empty corn bin, and the household geese and turkeys quacked and gobbled in vain for a feed. In this critical conjunc ture the head of the house espied the carter of a neigh bouring farmer driving along the road with a poke of carter d o him prickedse corn in his cart , an d accost i ng him, inquired if he knew un hon es t gr i eve i n want of a goo d s i tuat i on .

MARYLEBONE. EXTENSIVE PLUNDER BY A LAUNDRESS.— On Satur day Esther Hughes, who had been brought before this court on Thursday last, charged with pawning a con siderable quantity of linen and other articles, the pro perty of Edward Cadwell, Esq., 3, Whitehall-gardens, and two of his domestic servants, was again brought up for examination, when a similar charge was preferred ag ainst her by W. Scott Benney , 37, Bryanstone square. It appeared that in the latter part of the last month the prisoner was intrusted with those articles for laun dry purposes. She then resided at Kensall Now-town. Not returning the articles after the expiration of a week, suspicion was excited, and it was found she had left her lodgings. On Thursday morning last she was taken into custody, and twenty duplicate tickets of the pro perty pawned were found upon her. The value of the pro perty which was given up by the pawnbrokers was be tween 151. anti 201. The prisoner said she had pawned the property with the intention of redeeming it. Mr. LANG sentenced her for each offence to pay a fine of 205., or in default of payment to be committed to the House of Correction for a month. • The prisoner was removed by Mitchell, the gaoler, crying bitterly. CRO YDON. William West, who has for a number of years filled the office of beadle to the parish of Mitcham, attended before Messrs. Lucas, Barclay, and Sutherland, the pre siding magistrates, to answer a charge of violently as saulting a young girl named Emily Ridley, in Mitcham Church. Ear a considerable time past West appears to have acted in a very extrordinary manner, and he has been before the bench so many times, either as complainant or defendant, that the magistrates have repeatedly ex. Pressed their disgust at his violent and outrageous con• duct; but notwithstanding this, it would seem that he is still retained in his office. The complainant in the present case, a respectable girl, deposed that on Sunday, the 3d instant, she went, accompanied by a child, to the church at Mitcham, and proceeded to a pew, which she had been in the habit of occupying. but she had hardly taken her seat before the defendant, who was in the middle of the church, called to her in a violent tone and manner to come out of the pew. She took no notice of what he said, thinking she had a right to the seat, when the defendant came to the pew, forced open the door with great violence, and seized her by the shoulders and thrust her out, and she fell to the ground fr ,m the three he used towards her. The defendunt said the complainant had no right in the pew, and he, therefore, had desirtd her to come out. She, in return, hid u-ed a very di-gusting expression to him, and he turned her out of the pew, but he denied haying used violence. The complainant most earnestly denied having used the expression imputed to her. The magistrates considered the charge of assault clearly made out, and did not believe that the com plainant had used the expression sworn to by the defendant. They had seen repeated instances of the great viol?nce and misconduct of.the defendant, and they considered it extraordinary that he should be retained in the office. The bench, therefore, felt it their duty to inflict a fine of 40s. and costs, and in default a month's imprisonment. PROVISIONS FOR IttELAND AND SCOTLAND. PORTSMOUTH, JAN. 17.—Her Majesty's cutters Ewe raid and Mercury, with the Lively and Sinbad lighters, sailed yesterday afternoon, for Cork, with biscuit, meal, &c. From their light draught of water they are to be kept on the station, to be moved to such places as the authorities may judge fit. Her Majesty's steamer Geyser has taken - on board one thousand bags of meal, and pro ceeded with it this morning, also to Cork. Her Majesty's steamer Scourge Mt the harbour this morning, for Bristol, there to load with provisions, and follow the others to Ireland. The Adventure, naval tran-port, was cleared of her dock-yard stores yesterday, and to-mor row will_be taken alongside the Clarence yard, to be loaded with meal, and then go over to Cork. Letters have arrived here, describing the positions of the store ships which have been sent to Scotland to re lieve the poor in the Orkneys and the Hebrides. It ap pears that Sir E. Coffin is the officer employed by the Commissariat department ; Major Halliday has charge of the provisions in her Majesty's store-ship lEolus ; Commander Rose is in charge of the stores on board the Belvidera,at:T( rmoray; Captain Pole atNorth and South Uist, and Commander Baynton, at Oban. These officers are not confined to the exact district at which they have been stationed, but are to travel about to gain information where distress prevails, and make arrange ments for its amelioration. One of the officers (Com• mender Baynton) had been sent from Oban to the neighbouring islands, and to the district of Arisaig, on the main land, to ascertain where food was required, and he found, previous to the arrival of her Majesty's ves sels, that it the members of the Free Church had not sent meal to many districts, the distress would have been fearful. The Sheerwater strainer is occupied in going to different places. The Belvidera is stationed at Tobermoray, in the Isle of Mill. The Firefly sterneot r, with a large supply of food, has gone to the islands North and South Uist, and also to look for a vessel which had been tLither from Tobermoray, with provi sions, but had not arrived. Captain Pole is charged with the distribution in those islands. Her Majesty's ship Stromb.di carried a great quantity of varioue sorts of provisions to the Isle of Mull (to a district called Ross), and then left for Devenpurt for a further supply. Thu Torch steamer is also occupied on the coast of Scotland, but she is chiefly destined to assist the fishing vessels, or rather the families of their crews, so that the vessels may put to sea in an effective condition. The Avon steamer is on he. passage to the coast, also loaded. Every vessel that arrives is put in quisition to carry provisions either to Ireland or Scotland. The Avenger will have what from Ply. mouth ; and it is understood that the Birkenhead troop• steamer will b used when her compasses are' adjusted. Neither the Retribution or Sidon, at thi: port, can be made available ; but the Apollo troop-ship, at Sheer ness, is found to be perfectly sound, and can be got ready in a few days, if requiage. • SPORTING INT ELLIGEIiCE.
