since the events of the South and Li Vendee is so grew that the most trifling causes farce it into a flame." The Nationel then gives an recount of the tumultuou. proceedings nearly to the same effect as the other journals, and then says : " Here, then, is civil war in Paris. We have seen it in the South and the West, and that before the stranger who might invade and threaten us. France has never bren in a more critical situation. The immense concourse of citizens, who, in following the remains of Lamarque. wished to prove that they condemn the external and inter nal policy of the Government, was sufficiently considera ble to instruct the palace, and demonstrate to it that it• proceedings are wrong. The effusion of blood has given additional force to this testimony, and to so many and such great causes of indignation is added a cause greater than all. The blood of the people of Paris has been shed for the mere interests of the existing dynasty, and that Wood calls for vengeance. The population of Paris wishes satis faction and will maintain it, if it will only join modera tion and prurience with energy." " The Government is in opposition with all the real interests of France. France wishes a government which may defend her, instead of assassinating her citizens. The National Guard cannot rally round a faction, however, elevated. It will attach itself only to a principle, the principle that France is sovereign, and can alone dis pose of herself " EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (From the Times private Correspondent.) PARIS, WEDNESDAY, ONE O'CLOCK, P.M. At ten o'clock last night I sent off an express to you, with a hasty account of the general state of convulsion into which Paris has been suddenly thrown, in conse quence of some occurrence, yet unauthenticated, at the funeral of General Lamarque. The fighting was con tinued all night and this morning until ten o'clock with great spirit on both sides, but with such intermissions as were necessitated by occasional showers of rain. The troop s have proved too numerous for the number of those who were tempted to take part against them. I have just returned from an inspection of the different quarters of the city which had been converted into fields of battle. The military have maintained or regained possession of them, the firing has entirely ceased, and none of the people are seen in the streets, excepting persons who are evi dently attracted by mere curiosity. It is yet impossible to obtain very minute or accurate particulars of all that has passed, but from what I gather from the multitude of accounts in circulation, and from what I saw myself both last evening and to-day, I should judge, that on the side of the people none took an active part but the very lowest of the populace. This is easily accounted for when it is considered that the quarrel arose accidentally, and was not the consequence of a preconcerted plan, though it is certain that the minds of many, on going to the funeral, were in a state of great excitement, and bent upon mischief. Those who were among the first to take part in it were the most active and persevering combatants during the whole night, because they had received or witnessed the provocation. The in habitants of the other quarters of the town, to which they successively transferred the scene of operations, being unacquainted with the real cause, imagined that it was a mere wanton attack on the part of a C•rliat and republican rabble, who had got drunk on their return from the funeral ; they therefore kept aloof, leaving those who had first begun the battle to fight it out by themselves. I should therefore believe that the whole number of civic Combatants did not exceed 30,000 persons; for it is to be observed, that only a portion of those who formed the procession took up arms. There were several thousands of National Guards who withdrew to their homes, and would not take part with either the military or the people. In giving a semi-official account of the origin of the quarrel, the Moniteur of this morning boldly declares that the people were in the wrong, for it was they, according to that authority, who first attacked the cavalry, and forced them to fire and charge in their defence. I have great reason to believe that the reverse was the case, and that what I said in my letter last night, as having ' been stated to me by two respectable eye-witnesses, was correct. This I find confirmed by Galignani's Messenger (which, by the way, gives the best account of what has occurred), and several respectable French papers of this morning. But it will be extremely difficult to make the Government acknowledge that there was any thing wrong in the behaviour of the military, after having come off t riumphant, as such an acknowledgment might displease the latter, and induce them to act in a different way on any future similar occasion. It is certain that had the people received better sup port, and had they succeeded in driving the military out of Paris, Louis-Philippe would have been compelled to abdi cate, and the republic would have been proclaimed. There certainly exists a very general feeling throughout the country in favour of that form of government, and it cannot be denied that Louis-Philippe has lost a vast deal of his popularity ever since he has given his " citizens" r eason to believe that he was gradually departing from those principles of " republican monarchy" which he bad in the beginning promised to maintain. Although it would seem that tranquillity has been every where restored, I am by no means sure that it will con tinue long. The exasperation of the civic combatants ap- Peared very great. I saw them fighting with a spirit and e t rmination yesterday . which really made every one of e tti appear a h ere . Th ey s t orme d a l most every guard house in Paris, and succeeded in taking away all the ningkets, sa b res, and ammunition that were to be found there, 8 , It was c hi e fl y w i t h t h em t h at they fought i n the "eet• It is not to be expected that such high spirited men will sit down quietly under their defeat. Few of the National Guards took part against the people. To-day, when all the fighting is apparently over, agreat num b er of them parade the Boulevards and prin cipal streets, to " maintain order." Ido not mean to hint that it was f rom cowardice that they kept back, very far from it; but they bad no taste for drawing their swords against their fellow-citizens. We have no news to-day about the Duchess de Berri, who, indeed, f or t h e present, is quite forgotten. Still it , would appear, fro m a ll t h e accounts coining from the , w w e h st o , that she c an h ar dl y f a il to fall into the hands of those may choose to go earnestly in pursuit of her. ' The -Temps of this day has published a letter of M. Odillon Barrot, on the state of France, which is worthy of perusal. The view of things therein contained is pre cisely that which is entertained by the great major ity of the French people. Four o'clock, r.m. Since writing what precedes, I have made another at tempt to take a survey of the late scenes of action ; but the fighting having again commenced at the Place de la Bastille, and along part of the Boulevards, the military stationed at the end of every principal street prevent peo ple from going about the town. The action, however, must be very hot in those directions, for the firing of mus ketry and artillery is incessant. Paris has all the appear ance of a city just taken by storm. All the shops have re mained shut since the morning, and business is completely at 4 stand. The Bourse, however, was opened as usual, and excessively crowded. Very little business was done, iind decline of no great importance t oo k pl ace in the prices 0 f the funds. Last night the seals were placed, by order of the police, " the presses of the Tribune, Quotidienne and Courrier rie i'Europe, in consequence of which those journals did not appear to-day. So much for the liberty that the P 79 has gained by the revolution of 1830.

STRAND THEATRE.— The Bill of fare at this house last night presented the diversity of four enter tsinnaents. Two of them made their appearance far the first time; they are named Speculation, and The Best of husbands. They were well received by the audience, and announced for repetition to-morrow night, without a dissentient voice. The plot of these trifles ii new nor very intricate, but it was cleverly arranged very and developoed, without much stretch of imagination on the part of the auditors. The actors at this theatre are im 'liproving in their profession. In the musical drama of das, Mrs. WAYLETT sang very agre ea bl y, and was Goo ervedly encored i n the well-known song of " Pray the early part of the evening the benches Were nearly emptied in a fevv moments by a false alarm of 6 re ; the company hurried in fear and terror to the stair e'l, ' , es and av enues; but we are happy to say that no acci 'lent of any kind occurred. .., Captain O'Cor N ELL, broth er -i n- l aw of D. '''CoNNELL, Esq., M.P., has fallen a victim to the cholera dTral ee . H e was i n perfect health at three o'clock in the . 1) and a corpse at seven the following morning, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING. JUNE 8, 1832. According to the latest intelligence received from Paris, the insurrection in that capital seems to be pretty nearly at an end. The troops of the line and the National Guards, with some few exceptions, remained firm to the KING, and, by their prompt, united energies, aided by the inertness of the populace as a body, brought the struggle to a speedy issue. There appears to be considerable mystery respecting the com mencement of the affray. One account says that it was produced by the military ; others, by the insurgents. One thing, however, is beyond a doubt, namely, that the Government, by some means or other, were fully acquainted with the fact that a riot would take place, and were pre pared accordingly. It is not improbable, from the eagerness with which they took their mea sures, and the singular unanimity and enthusiasm with which they were acted on, that they were even delighted with an opportunity of coming into collision with the insurgents, in order that they might make such a demonstration of strength as might paralyze any further attempts at dis burbance. But though tranquillity is, by this time, re stored in Paris, it is a tranquillity only on the surface. Below that surface a considerable ferment is at work. The volcano is still labouring, though its irruption is for the present at an end. So long as LOUIS-PHILIPPE, either wilfully or from extreme incapacity, refuses to follow up those principles which procured his elevation to the throne, and apart from which, he has no legal or honest right to the Monarchy ; so long as he succumbs to the old despotisms of the Con tinent—he, the creature of the people, the child, the champion of the revolution, whose first leading principle is hostility to all despotism ; so long as he truckles to the Carlists, while he punishes with undue severity all who profess more liberal opinions than himself ; so long as he exhibits himself in the capacity of a sworn enemy to the Press, and allows avarice and am bition to get the better of justice and common sense ;—so long as Louts-PHILIPPE persists in this anti-national line of conduct, so long will the safety of his throne be endangered, and he himself be the prime mover of the distur. bances which he so earnestly deprecates. What occasions the present clamour for a Republic in France ? What but the rank ab surdity of the juste milieu system—a system originating in timidity, strengthened by fraud, and confirmed by obstinacy. Fond as is Louis- PHILIPPE of this system, when the interests of France (which it endangers) are concerned, he takes special care it shall not apply to himself personally. There are no symptoms of the juste milieu visible in his enormous civil list, in his splendid, innumerable palaces, in the re sources (which to gratify his own avarice) he draws from a people with Whom he seems daily desirous of loosing the bonds of sympathy—there is no juste milieu here, all is in the extreme of waste and profusion. But the fact is, the whole system is a shallow hum bug, got up for the sole purpose of blinding France, and propitiating Russia. To those who regard the late tumults as a mere effusion of party spleen, we would say, look deeper, and you will perceive below the surface, the materials, hourly at work, of a se cond, and, we hope, a bloodless, political change. Subjected to a trial of two years, Lours- PHILIPPE has, on every occasion of emer gency, been found wanting both to himself and to that France, which he takes such diligent pains to misrepresent. Hence the true secret of the late explosion. It is idle to suppose that it was a mere Carlist or Buonapartist conspiracy ; the former had undoubtedly some share in it, but the prime movers we firmly believe, were the republicans, whose zeal got the better of their discretion, and who were consequently put down. Still, let it be borne in mind, the snake is scotched, not killed. It will still continue to annoy and scare the sleep of Louis - PHILIP PE , till he does justice to himself and his people.— till he acts up to the stipulations which he agreed to on his elevation to the throne, that he would become the head of a monarchy surrounded by republican institutions. Since writing the above we have received the Messager des Chambres of yesterday, the 7th. It appears by accounts, dated five o'clock in the afternoon, that the Convent of St. Mary, and the Hall, were the chief points where the insurgents rallied—a large number of whom barricaded themselves in the Convent. Two bat. tilions of troops of the line, and a municipd guard were sent against them, but were repulsed. The Minister of War then summoned the Convent. The insurgents demanded a capitu lation, which was refused, and only ten minutes allowed them to surrender ; after the expiration of which the cannonade recommenced with in- creased fury. At a few minutes after five o'clock the firing subsided, when it was announced that the Con vent and all the surrounding points were taken by the troops. Letters, dated twelve o'clock on Wednesday night, state that all was quiet in Paris, and the insurrection entirely put down. We regret to hear it reported this morning that Earl GREY is so indisposed as to be obliged to leave town for his residence at East Sheen. Mr. CROKE►t'S criticism on the Boundaries Bill, last night, was amusing and instructive, but it produced no more effect on the House than it would have done had the Right Hon. Gen tleman commenced by informing Members that he was not at all serious in what he was about to say, and rose merely to make a final flourish on the passing of the Reform Bill. There was occasional laughter at a few of his witticisms, but not even from his own side of the House did there appear any thing like concurrence, much less hearty assent in the exaggerated statements laid before them• Whenever the Right Hon. Gentleman speaks, Members evidently have a misgiving about his authorities or the correctness of his reasoning, and repress their party cheers for fear of impli cating themselves in his false conclusions. We never saw a more marked instance of this than last evening. Though some of his statements at first sight were most convincing, his auditors could not place implicit confidence in them—they evidently hung back, suspecting, as they had reason from former exhibitions, that there was some essential point kept out of view—or some trick played off to amuse or deceive them. The remarkable statement, for instance, that Honi ton, with only 3,509, was to return two Mem bers, while Christchurch, with double the popu lation, double the assessed taxes, and 100 more electors, was to have only one, was re ceived with one solitary " Hear." Honourable Members knew that such could not possibly be the fact, and consequently suspended their judg ment till they heard from Lord J. RUSSELL that though Christchurch was superior in popu lation, Honiton far exceeded it in wealth and relative importance. Statements like these de stroy all confidence in those that make them, and we therefore wonder that the Right Hon. Gen tleman, with all his tact, experience, and know lege of the world, should endanger the most valuable of all qualities in a statesman—confi dence, by attempting to obtain a momentary applause at its expense. What, too, could be more absurd, than his denouncement of the Boundary Bill, and his placid regard of the other great measure which had received the Royal Assent. The Reform Bill he had also denounced as :revolutionary—subversive of or ' der, and incompatible with good Government— yet last night he admitted he had began to look forward to the period when it would become as similated to the habits of the people and further changes be prevented, but these hopes had all been blasted by this re% olutionary Boundary Bill. This is indeed the art of sinking, and need we wonder that men who have recourse to such shifts to oppose Government should sink in public estimation ? It is in fact the raree-show man pulling his strings, and telling the children that every succeeding scene far surpasses that before it. The English Reform Bill is de structive of all order—the Boundary Bill far surpasses it, and we yet expect the Right Honourable Gentleman to denounce the Irish Bill as the consummation of evils, and come forward some months—perhaps some weeks after, and express his belief that the good sense of the people would counteract all their bad effects. An attempt was made, both by Mr. CROKER and Sir C. WETHERELL, to throw discredit on Reform by coupling the Boundary Bill with the disturbance at Paris. What earthly con nexion they have, we cannot see. We have in a legitimate way, through the means of our representation, and by the peace able, but firm, attitude of the people, re stored the Constitutio,i to its original splendour and greatness. A number of hot-headed youth s and Carlists taking advantage of the unpo pularity of the KING, and the disturbances raised by the enemies of all Constitutional Government, have renewed the cry which for the last forty years has at periods of distress been raised in various parts of France, but in fact it has no more been caused by Re form than the events of 1792 were caused by those 1832. And were the French to have a republic to-morrow, it would not in the smallest degree alter the feeling of the people of England in favour of their great constitutional charter. The Dutch and German Papers, received this morning, do not contain any articles of much interest : BREDA, JUNE 4.—We learn from Bois-le-Due that the two Princes will go this week to Tilbury, but probably some portion of the bead-quarters, with some heads of the military department, will remain at Bois-le-Due. We learn from Zealand that M. Steven, of Ghent, for merly the Editor of the lfessager de Gand, and well known for his courage and zeal in representing the revo lutionary heroes of Belgium in their true colours, whose house was twice plundered, and himself, as a victim to his opinions, wounded, persecuted, and imprisoned, arrived on the 31st of May at our outports, at Eede, in the 4th district of Zealand, provided with a passport from General Niellon, and with the intention of going to Holland. The military authorities in our territory hesitated to let M. Steven pass, chiefly on account of the cholera at Ghent. The man who did not hesitate boldly to risk every thing for the cau►e which he defended, will doubtless receive on arrival in our country the hospitable treatment which his fidelity and patriotism, the chief ♦irtue of our countrymen, 30 highly deserve. M. Steven is still at Eede. In the fourth and fifth districts of Zealand more rein forcements are anxiously desired ; the service is very ar duous, and seems to have an unfavourable effect on the health of the soldiers. A 3 ISTERDAIt, JUNE s.—The English Admiral Donelly has arrived here, with his family and attendants, from Frankfort.

On occasion of the promotion made in consequence, his Majesty the Emperor has ordered that henceforward no colonel shall be promoted to the rank of major-general if the state of his health is such that he would not be able to endure the fatigues of actual service. Since yesterday. the disorder of the Duke of Reichstadt has again taken an unfavourable turn. THE HAGUE, JUNE 6.—His Majesty is expected te night from the Loo.

S.) the day of the deliverance of Russia from the invasion of foreign enemies, to erect a temple to the Redeemer in Moscow, will now with the Divine aid be fulfilled by his Majesty. The building of such a temple was to com mence in the year 1817 on the Sparrow Mountain, but insurmountable difficulties stopped the progress of the work, and made it necessary to choose a more suitable si tuation. The site of the Nuns' convent of Alexejeff has been selected ; it is in the middle of the city, and the si tuation resembles that of the Sparrow Mountain. His Majesty has approved the plan for the building, and the work will begin immediately. His Majesty has conferred the order of St. Alexander Newsky on Prince Valentine Radzivill. Up to the 21st inst. 286 ships had arrived at Cron stadt, and seven had sailed.

In consequence of a requisitio❑ to the Lord Mayor, a Court of Common Council was held this day, in order to take into consideration the best means of celebrating the passing of the Reform Bill, on a notice of motion given by Mr. Charles Pearson, at the last Court, to the effect, " That a Court be held for the purpose of taking into consideration the best means of presenting the Free dom of the City to Earl Grey and Lord Althorp, and also to consider the propriety of celebrating the passing of the Reform Bill by a dinner at Guildhall, and to consider what sum should be set apart from the city funds for that purpose, to cement the bond of union among the cit . zens of all classes and opinions, by the public celebration of the triumph of rational liberty in the passing of the People's Bill." The LORD AlAYou took the Chair at twelve o'clock, when several petitions of no public importance were pre. Dented and discussed. Mi. STEVENS presented a report from the Reform Committee appointed in 1831. The requisition having been read, Mr. FLETCHER rose and proposed a resolution that "an entertainment be provided by the Corporation, to which should be invited; Earl Grey, Lord Althorp, all the Members who voted in the majority on the third reading of the Bill, and all the Lords who were in the minority on Lord Lyndhurst's motion. The Hon. Gentleman was left speaking. BURY ST. EDMUNDS, JUNE 6. There was a very sharp contest here between the inha bitants and the corporation, occasioned by three of the Paving Commissioners' deaths during the year. The Act of Parliament directs the vacancies to be filled up the first Monday in June. The contest terminated on Tuesday in favour of the Reform party, the corporation returning only one (nearly all the voters are qualified under the new Bill). The two Reform candidates were chaired round the town, followed by thousands ; just as the procession reached the Market place, the news of the pissing of the Reform Bill came down by the coaches. The shouts were deafening. After taking the Members (one of whom, T. K. Eagle, Esq. stands for the borough) to their respec tive houses, a well manufactured effigy of the Duke of NVellington, in full regimentals, with a halter round his neck, was carried round the town, and at eight o'clock was burnt on the Matket-hill, with the Tory paper in his out-stretched hand.

PARISH EMIGRATION.--Yesterday morn ing at half-past seven o'clock, twenty-four female paupers of St. Marylebone parish, who have been for a long time past inmates of the workhouse, took their departure, on their way to Van Dieman's Land, to which place they had volunteered to expatriate themselves, under the colonial re gulations sanctioned by Government. They were all robust, healthy -looking young women, cleanly and suitably apparelled, between si x t een an d twenty-f i ve years of age, and, except at the trying moment of departure, seemed in full and buoyant spirit to encounter the difficulties of their intended enterprise. Two omnibuses were engaged to convey them from the workhouse to St. Katharine Dock, where the Hero steamer was in readiness to take them on board the Renown, Captain ANDERSON, lying off Graves end, which vessel will proceed on its voyage the first A number of their relations an d f r i en d s assembled opportunity, a; the workhouse-door to wish them good bye, amongst whom might be seen the aged father, struggling with his tears, in taking what in all probability would be the last farewell of his child, while in some instances it was necessary to use force to separate the mother from her offspring. Previous to their setting out they all partook of a substantial breakfast, and on the preceding night were allowed to sleep together in one ward.

I have met with ,ome simple young gentlemen at College who produced the disease by their affectation, and became permanently sort-sighted. The retina, accustomed to the stimulus of light sent from very close objects, becomes insensible to those more remote, and consequently less powerful. Hence watchmakers are short-sighted, and sailors the reverse.— Mechanics Magazine. COURT CIRCULAR.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, T WEL VE 0' CLOCK. The telegraph despatches we received yesterday from Calais are confirmed this morning by the estafet from Paris in the main points, which stated that the King put himself at the head of the troops, that the National Guard and troops of the line had done their duty, and were firm to the King, and that the insurrection (if it may be called one) was crushed. This information was rather doubted by an evening Paper, because the French Ambassador bad not received a telegraphic despatch on the subject. We suppose that it does not suit at all times his Excellency to be too cam • municative. And we often find that our city merchant of the first rate has important information even before Government. This has been the case with the Calais telegraphic des patches. Although the firing was again renewed in one quarter of Paris late in the afternoon, no doubt against some of the barricades which refused to surrender, we shall in a few hours hear of their being in possession of the King's troops. By private letters received by the estafet we learn that Marshal Soult, about half-past four o'clock p.m., went in person to the places which resisted, and gave orders to the commander of the troops not to spare the houses which surrounded the barricades, if necessity required him to pull them down, as the effair must be immediately termi nated. It is also reported that General Clauzel, who was General at Algiers, was the chief instigator of this serious riot. By the French mail this morning, they write from Brussels that M. Thorn, in his prison, bad broken a blood vessel, or had an attack of apoplexy. He had sufficient force to give alarm ; the gaoler came to his dungeon ; he begged of him to call a surgeon to his assistance, who said he would not put himself out of the way for a man of such a character. The following day this respectable citi zen was deprived of his senses. The French packet-boat La France has arrived at Bordeaux ; sailed Apr;l 11. At the time of her depar ture, the Government army had surrounded, on the land side, that town, and were making preparations to take it by storm. The foreign merchants, fearing" the event, bad sent their merchandise and property to their respective Consuls. Owing to favourable accounts being received from Paris, and a general opinion that by this time all the riots have terminated at the above capital, and that the French King's Government will be more firm than ever, the Funds have rather improved ; Consols, which left off yesterday at 81i for the account, opened at 85, and went up to 85i ; at present they ate 85. With all this great tumult at Paris, the French Funds have only fallen # per cent. ; the leaving off price of the Three per Cents was 69f. 60c. In the Foreign Market nothing doing at present.

We hear that there was a considerable run on the north road the evening after the third reading of the Reform Bill, and a large efflux of curious citizens from the northern parts of the metropolis, to wee the conflagration of Hatfield-house, which Lord SALISBURY bad threatened should take place on the passing of the Bill. Our eight seeing countrymen were disappointed in the exhibition, which, it was understood, was deferred till the Royal Assent had been given to the Bill. We hope the dimi nutive Marquess did not apply the torch yesterday, as the heavy rain would, we fear, have prevented the full success of this notable enterprise, especially as this descendant of old BURLEIGH is not celebrated for the power of aqu ignition.—Morning Chronicle. - The Prussian patrols from the garrison of Mentz arrested a number of the citizens who returned from the Hambach meeting with national cockades in their hats.

IN RE ROSA MATILDA RAGSTER, alias NEWTON, A SUP- POSED LUNATIC. Sir E. SUDDEN occupied the morning in applying fir commission of lunacy to issue against Miss Bageter, anus Mrs. Newton, who a short time ago was carried off by kI r. Raymond Darcey Newton, and married to him af. Gretna Green. The Learned Counsel commenced by statir , :, , the affidavits were so full, so numerous, and made out s sa'isfaetorily to his mind,—a case on which it would be impossible for the Court to refuse to grant the commission. —that he deemed it altogether unnecessary to make any prefatory remarks, before proceeding to read the affidavits in detail to his Lordship. Sit Edward accordingly detailed the affidavits of Mrs. Bagster, the mother of the yourg lady, the governess, Alderman Kelly, Dr. Sutherland, Sir G. Tu'hill, Dr. Gordon, and of some others, slightly commenting on parts of them as he went on, and which appeared to us to make out a case of the . most perfect imbecility of mind on the part of the girl ; hut as the contents of the affidavits on the other side had not also been disclosed before we left the Court, it will probably be right for us to close our report of the case for to-day where we now leave it. Sir Edward expressed himself in the most confident terms that in the end his Lordship would not permit Mr. Newton to get possession of this lady's large property, with a view to which he could only have been actuated in availing himself of her weakness, —almost total want of mind, to ruin her person. She is 21 years of age, in the custody, at present, of Mr. Alder man Kelly (one of her guardians) and, according to the affidavits read, never could even tell how many shillings ought to he given in exchange for a sovereign or half sove reign, or cast up two lines of simple addition.

MURDER OF MR. PAAS. LEICESTER, JUNE 6. The suspicion which existed of a guilty knowledge of the murder by the family of Cook, is, upon further in quiry, fast diminishing. As the evidence now stands, it amounts merely to a supposition that the old man, at the time of permitting his son's escape, had a belief that he had been guilty of something dreadful ; but it does not appear that either he, or any of the family, received any portion of the plunder. Admitting the old man did be lieve his son had committed some great crime, still his not stretching forth his hand to seize and deliver his son over to the hangman, will be thought by most an excusa ble act. It was, however, against the brother Michael that suspicion most strongly pointed. Evidence was given of two men having been seen moving a hair trunk about two o'clock in the morning of the night after the murder from the direction of Cook's shop. It was conjectured that this box contained the upper part of the body, but the Magistrates are now convinced that this was not so. Michael most satisfactorily accounts for his time during the whole of Wednesday ; and, as respects the night of that day, a servant girl, who lives in the hou►e with him, his wife, and his aged mother-in-law, was examined here yesterday, and gave so sim ple and so natural an account of the reasons she had for knowing he must have been at home all night, as made a great impression on the Magistrates. Against the other brother Job, there does not appear to be any case ; indeed, there is one fact strong in his favour, and that is, that immediately on his hearing of his brother having ab sconded, he went to one of the town Magistrates, and asked him if he could have a warrant out against him, as he owed him a considerable sum of borrowed money. Against the sister there appears to be no ground of suspi cion, except that of her coming to the spot at the time of the discovery of the fire. The Magistrates, indeed, are so well convinced, in the present state of the evidence, that there is nothing to justify a lengthened detention of them, that they intend liberating them to-morrow, unless a confession implicating them should be made by Couk in the interim. Aft.r the examination before the Magistrates at Liver pool Was over, Cook was conveyed to the Bridcwell, when he rtquested to go to bed. His wishes were complied with, and he fell into a sound slumber, which lasted until the morning. About eight o'clock the Red Rover drew up to the prison, when Cook was placed on the roof, ac companied by five constables. Daring the whole of the route the prisoner exhibited the utmost levity—laughing and joking with the constables. As the coach passed through the various towns and villages, the inhabitants came out from their residences to obtain a glimpse of him. On seeing them, he laughed and Faid, " What fools they are to come out merely to see me!" On the coach arriving at Sandback, which in forty two miles from Liverpool, they stopped to dine, when Cook made the heartiest meal of any of the party, and appeared to he from his conversation the most careless person present. At the different houses where the coach stopped, he invariably asked for something to drink and cigars, which were granted, and he continued smoking until the coach arrived at Ashby, about eighteen miles from Leicester. It was here deemed advisable to put Cook into a post-chaise, and while the vehicle was getting ready he ordered some brandy and water, and walked about the room with a firm step. Although the coach did not arrive in Leicester until near ten o'clock, the streets were crowded by nearly the whole population, anxious to catch a glimpse at him. The post-chaise taking a diffe rent routes it reached the gaol unnoticed, and when Cook was taken in only a dozen persons were present. Cook, the wretched murderer of Mr. Paas, was sent from Liverpool, on Wednesday morning, to Leicester. He was heavily ironed, and escorted by five officers. After his committal, on Tuesday, he was very communicative to the officer who sat up to watch him. He confessed that he perpetrated the murder, which be committed with the iron pin used by bookbinders in their business. He stated, that the head of the unfortunate man, as well as the uppe, part of his body, were not consumed by fire; but he de. dared, that he never would give any information as to the place where the remains of the body were secreted. The officer warned him against committing himself further, and the conversation dropped. We believe that the police were indebted to Mr. Parry, the boatman, for the information of the prisoner's intended escape. From the circumstance .if a stranger wanting a boat before daylight, he suspected that he was fleeing from justice. Accotdingly, the boatmen, instead of making the best of their way to the outward-bound ships that were lying at the Rock ready to start with the norning's tide, were directed to delay their progress, that the officers, to whom he had sent information, might over take the boat in which Cook had embarked. This cir cumstance will account for the ease with which he was captured. It is worthy of remark, that Cook pretended to deposit i❑ the hands of the man with whom he had taken ail his lodgings at Liverpool, a purse of money, and at the same time borrowed from him a silver watch. The purse, instead of containing money, was found, when examined tfterwards, to contain pebbles; and the poor man's watch seas found on the prisoner's person when arrested by the police The second battalion of Grenadier Guards trrived in Bristol on Weduesday from Dublin , and 'OW on their route to take up their (porters in Pot tin crest barracks. It is conizetured, that for the futur, of the Foot Guards will be gent to Ireland.
