FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. PARIS, SEPT. 2-I.—A letter . from Poictiers says -,—" The persons under sentence of death in the affair of Saumur are still together in the same dungeon, with the exception of Senechault, for whose pardon application has been made. From the first night collars of iron were put on them, and chains of iron that pressed so violently on the legs, that Berton, not being able longer to support them, protested to the Prefect. This Magistrate went to the dungeon,_ ordered the collars to be taken off, and lighter chains to be put en their feet. "The Live condemned eat together, and live at common charge. Berton pays for Jaglin, and has also sent money to the mother of the latter, and has besides distributed money in the prison to other prisoners under sentence. Sauge, in spite of his being 63 years of age, chews much firmness, and incessantly encourages his companions. Be commonly, after dinner, sings songs, which they all repeat in chorus. As for Berton, he has not wavered for a single in stant." It has been said that prayers for pardon have been addressed to the king by the wives of. Senechault and Cafe. The sister of Jaglin is also come to Paris to implore for the pardon of 'ber brother.—(ConstitutionneL) A letter from Strasburgh, of Sept. 19, says— "hi the Sitting of the Council of War to-day, Lieutenant-Col. Caron and the Sieur Roger have appeared for the first time; their Council urged reasons against the competence of the Council — first, from their want of authority to try offences such as the accused were charged with ; second, from their having no jurisdiction over the persons of the accused. The protest was rejected. The •accused were then interrogated, and witnesses examined. It is extremely difficult to get ad mission into the hall in which the Council sit, be ,cause only 21 spectators are allowed to enter; when that number is in the hall no others are allowed to come in."—(ldem.) A telegraphic dispatch from Strasburgh, dated - Sept. 23, announces that Caron has been unani mously condemned to death. Roger, acquitted of erzbauchage (decoying the -soldiery from their duty) by five votes against two, and of being accessary to embauchage, by -four votes to three, has been delivered over to the King's Procureur at Colmar.—(Etoile.) The Gazette Universelle de Lyons, of the 20th, corrects in the following.manner the note which it had published the day before on the closing of a Masonic Lodge in the , same town :- 44 It is not, we hear, as a Masonic Lodge, that 'the Society called the Memphis Society has been closed, and that its papers, registers, lists, &c. have been seized ; it is because this Association followed the rites of Illisraim, which is not acknowledged by the Great'East of France, and is not authorised by the Government." The same Paper announces that M. Bellart, .Procureur-General of the Royal Court of Paris, -has been at Lyons since the 18th. They write from Rouen, that the deplorable -event which consumed the pyramid of the Ca . thedral, is still so present to men's minds, that yesterday, at half past seven in the evening, the bell having announced another fire, fear seized all minds. M. Picard, the Mayor's Adjunct, the Commissaries of Police, the soldiery, the engine men, and a crowd of people, went to the street -des Charettes, where the first signs of this fatal ,scourge had already disappeared. Fnobt THE LECIi, SEPT. 16.—A commercial !Jetter,,which has this instant arrived from Venice, of the 11th September, informs us, that a very ,numerous Greek fleet had doubled the southern .point of the Morea, going towards Cape Papa and the Gulf of Lepanto, to attack and destroy, ,:if possible, the Turkish fleet which is stationed ',there. • If the reports of persons worthy of credit may be believed, the Turkish fleet is in a very un favourable position, and may be easily destroyed If the Greeks act with their usual skill, and make nse of their fire vessels, of which they have a .great number.. We have also received from some ports of the Adriatic very recent news from Greece, up to the 24th of August, and several circumstances ,are explained which, till now, were very obscure. We 'may rely more confidently on the correct ness of this news, because it fully confirms what Ave heard eight days ago, and furnishes us with `Nery accurate notions of the state of affairs in *Greece. The Provisional Government has lately shewn great and energetic resolution.; and it is far from ,being dissolved,' as the Austrian Observer has said. The resistance which it organised in the -Peloponnesus, when invaded, was so great, that At was saved when the Turks regarded it. as already conquered. The levies were made with _great rapidity and with good will, particularly -in the interior and in the mountains. They were organized in all haste at Tripolizza, and the arms the Government successively procured were di vided among them. The brave Colocotroni, the Commander-in-Chief of all the troops in the Morea, gained two victories in succession, in consequence of which the remainder of the Turks retreated towards the Gulf of Lepanto And the Isthmus. On the 21st, the Greeks were -again masters of the citadel and town of Corinth; the former could not sustai❑ from wanting large Artillery. Ou the other'hand, it is certain that a Turkish garrison is still in Napoli' di Romania, the prin -cipal fortress of the Morea. This place is blocked, up both by sea and land. The Com mander concluded a convention at the beginning -of June, by which he agreed to, give up the place if he was not succoured before three _months expired ; on their part, the Greeks pro mised to furnish subsistence to the garrison during this space of time, which was effected till now without any difficulty. In this state of ; things it may be expected that this fortress will ~.be obliged to surrender. A numerous Greek corps is still in Thessaly ..and another in Livadia ; both are operating on the rear of the Turks, who, however, have a' strong corps in the neighbourhood of Larissa. Prince Maurocordato embarked on July 31 at Missotonghi, but dispatches arriving the same day from the Moreq, Maurocordato returned to Missolonglii, and repaired to Vrachorey, which is at present .the ce►►tre of operations in the western part of Greece. COURT OF ASSIZE OF PARIS. TRIAL of PIERRE BARTHELEMYpr the FRAUDU- LENT SEDUCTION of a YOUNG WOMAN. A number of interesting trials are to occupy the Court dur ing this Session. On Thursday, the 26th, the Court will have to decide tin the opposition formed by the four -Editors of the Constitutions:el, the Pilote, the Courier,' and the Journal die Commerce, to a decree which forbids them to report proceed ings in Courts of Justice. The day after. to-morrow the Court will have to try an accusation of bigamy, and one of fraudulent bankruptcy. The sitting of to-day has been occupied by an accusation of carrying off' a minor, the only daughter of a cabi net-maker possessing some property. The accused was a young man, author of several articles, who had no other means of sub sistence, though an Advocate, than his recent employment by a Journal entitled the Pilote. Pierre Barthelemy had met several times Miss Elizabeth Florence G—, daughter of a cabinet-maker, aged 17 years. He was 11 or 12 years older. He is far from being ugly, but he is short and lame, and obliged to aid the shbrtness of one leg by a high heeled boot, and to support himself on a cane. The Act of Accusation and the Justificatory Papers make us acquainted with the manner in which the acquaintance was established. Barthelemy frequently followed Miss Elizabeth in the street, as she proceeded from her father's house to school, accompanied by a female servant. He very soon finind means to speak to her, and offered to lend her some boas. The first which he lent her were, according to him, some works on. Education, and -a Treatise on Mythology.— Some time afterwards he put into her hands the first volume of La Nouvelle Heloise, and refused to give her the second. He wished to shew her Julie guilty, -but not Julie repentant. Elizabeth, it is said, hesitated to finish the first volume ; she was stopped -by this remarkable passage of the preface:— "'Whatever young woman, in spite of the title, dares to read is single page, is for ever lost." She added, however, I have arrived at the 110th page, and am not yet lost.. Barthelemy, replied, that the danger was only to weak minds, and that she might continue. In a letter written to the object of his arts, Barthelemy deve loped his theory of seduction. Very soon he menaced Eliza beth, that he should be driven to deeds of the greatest despair. He dared to advance that suicide was not a crime. He an nounced his approaching departure for Barcelona, where he was going to brave the yellow fever. Elizabeth was alarmed ; Bar thelemy changed his plan of a journey into Spain for a trip to England, and by degrees lie led her into the abyss of seduction. At length tho place of her retreat was discovered, and she was conducted to the -convent of SL Michel, by virtue of the pa ternal authority, and of the authority of the President of the Civil Court. • Barthelemy wrote a menacing letter to the fa ther, in which he reproached him as a tyrant and gaoler, and the executioner of his daughter, and, went so far as to say, " you have lost your rights in abusing them." Barthelemy- alleged for excuse the violent passion with which he was inspired by his victim, and the' project which'he had always entertained of marrying her • but the father would not accept of a reparation which only confirmed the ravisher in the possession of the prey which he had coveted. He appeared before the Court as a party to a civil suit. At the commencement of the trial, Elizabeth was led forward by the son-in-law of M. Lebon, her father's advocate. Her steps trembled, she was evidently confused, and a long black veil covered her features, which; however, were discerned to be regular and handsome. Her eyes appeared to avoid these of M. Barthelemy. - After the act of accusation was read in the presence of a nu merous audience, M.' de Broe, Advocate-General, required, in consequence of the nature of some of the details, that the cause should be heard with closed doors. The Court agreed to this requisition, the audience were or dered to depart, some persons, however, remained ; we shall not abuse this favour in reporting afflicting details, which the interest of morality requires us not to submit to the eyes of our readers. M. de BROE supported the accusation with the same talent that he has recently displayed in a number of criminal pro. secutions. M. le Bost pleaded the father's cause, and M. CARNE de fended Barthelemy. • . The audience were again admitted, when the Judge sum med up, and they then learnt that all the difficulty of the ease turned on the 354th and 356th articles of the Penal Code, and on a defect which the Legislator seemed to have left in them. —The defence maintained that the minor being more than sixteen years of age, and having voluntarily followed her se ducer, the charge of fraud provided for in the 354th article was not applicable. . . . After a short deliberation, the Jury found Barthelemy not guilty of having carried off the minor, Elizabeth Florence G.— by fraud. In consequence the President discharged him, and addressed him as follows 1— " Pierre Barthelemy, the silence of the law rather than your innocence, enables you to escape from this accusation. You have been guilty of the gravest offence that can be committed not only against the rules of morality, but against the first princi ples of an honest and virtuous man. You have seduced a young woman from her duty, knowing that her father would never consent to give her to you in marriage. You have not even asked the father's consent ; you began the seduction of this , young person in the most vile manner, and with a skill and artfulness that has hitherto been found only in novels where the ' character of Lovelace has been described with such odious fea tures. You have evidently derived your means of seduction from works which we dare not name on this Bench. Remember the crime you have now been guilty of for the remainder of your life, and endeavour to expiate it by better conduct. 'Warned , for the future by the lesson you have received, endeavour to form no other connections but what are pure and virtuous. ' Above all, do not abuse talents which the Court cannot but re , . cognize, talents which nature has given you, and education has L cultivated, but of which you have made a most immoral and pernicious use." - FRANKFORT, SEPT. 19.--The letters from Con stantinople of the 25th ult. a►'e not yet arrived, and the Vienna Papers contain no further parti culars respecting the state of affairs in Greece . ; but letters have been received Ny way of Trieste, in which the cause of the Greeks is by 'no means given up as desperate—and they affirm, on the contrary, that they have again obtained advan tages over the Turks. It appears, that the Aus trian accounts were founded on truth, that the Turks have really overrun Livadia, occupied Corinth, and sent troops to Argos to attack the insurgents in the heart of the Peninsula. It is true that the Senate of Argos took flight, and sought an asylum on board the ships in the Gulf of Napoli ; but the Greeks deny that with this all resistance on their side was at an end. It re mains a riddle how Chourschid Pacha passed the defiles, as the Greeks still maintain that Odys seus is not a traitor, and that he still defends himself in the pass of Thermopylae; and the let ters from Trieste of the 6th and 7th September mention reports from the Morea of the 29th August, and from Argos itself of the 20th, which relate, with many details, the victories obtained by the Greeks. More circumstantial accounts must be waited for to clear up all the particulars of the ease, and especially what force the Turks have at their disposal in these parts, to enable us to form a more correct judgment of the situation of the contending parties. The accounts that will be given in the Austrian Papers are expected with impatience. Meantime the news that the Greeks have not lost their courage, and 'have taken steps to put an end to the dissentions which have already done so much, injury, has ex cited the greatest joy throughout. Germany. It is supposed that no measures will be taken by the civil power in the north of Germany respecting the order of the Freemasons. UTRECHT, SEPT. 22.—For some days past there has been a continual passage of troops through this city, both corps of cavalry proceeding to the Gorzel Heath, and several reOlnents of infantry going to the camp near Zeist. Our garrison also has left the city. , LIGNITZ, SEPT. 7.—On the 17th of last month the Village of Milzig, on the Oder, two leagues from Reusalz, was visited by a terrible hurricane, accompanied with a severe tempest, and torrents - of hail and rain ; large masses of rock fell down, and a part of the Oder which was navigable the day before, formed towards evening a perfect sandbank, where above 30 men who were em ployed in loading the boats on the Oder could walk without danger. Several vessels in the Oder laden with merchandise were in great danger, from the sudden deluge of water, of going to the bottom. The inhabitants of Milzig have lost their rich vintage ; even some vineyards have been washed down from above, and vines and fruit trees carried to a considerable distance into the valley. FROM THE DANUBE, SEPT. 7.—The corps of the Russian army, commanded by Count Woron zoff, still remains stationary in the Government of Volhynia, close to the Austrian frontiers. — Some time ago it was reported that this General had requested leave to retire, but it seems now to be certain that ' he will retain the command.— People connect this circumstance with resolutions which they conjecture will probably be adopted at the Congress, with regard to those countries where the state of things has not yet attained that degree of , solidity, which the illustrious pacificators desire to be every where confirmed for the general good ,of Europe. lint ,this is much in need of confirmation. Accounts from Moldavia cannot paint in suf ficiently gloomy colours the situation of Jassy. The finest palaces have fallen a Key to the flames, also the richest churches and monasteries; among the latter, in particular, the fine monastery of Golio, where the aqueduct was. Of the 8,000 houses which the city formerly contained, scarcely the fourth part remains. The 'Turkis!l troops have not yet left the Principalities. The new Prince of Moldavia is said to have been murdered on the road. STOCKHOLM, SEPT. 10.—His Majesty has resolved not to open the Norwegian Diet in person, and has therefore deferred till the 17th his departure for Christiana. SEPT. 13.—The day before yesterday Baron Stedingk ar rived here express from the Crown Prince; and it is said he has brought documents relating to the proposed marriage of his Royal Highness. What is known is, that after the usual litany and Privy Councils were ended yesterday s , the Council of State remained assembled for a long time in his Majesty's apartments, and that - to.day an united Swedish and Norwegian Council will be held. COPENHAGEN, SEPT. 17.—As a new proof, says a Danish paper, of the depreciation of landed property, we may mention the sale of a fine estate of 29,000 rix dollars, upon which pub lic institutions and private persons had mortgages to the amoun of 100,000 rix dollars.

(The Austrian Observer of those two days is still silent re specting the affairs of Greece and Turkey.) 106 i. SPAIN. MADRID, SEPT. ib.—A,Commissiott of Officers, appointed for that purpose, has classed the soldiers of the Guards who took the position in the Pardo. They have been divided into three classes. I. The innocent. 2. Not altoge ther innocent. 3. The guilty. Those of the first class are to be distributed in the corps of the army. Those of the second class are also to be distributed in other corps, but will lose part of the time for which they were enlisted, and will therefore have to serve longer. The third class will be tried. The Ayun tamiento of Barcelona are employed in finding work for the labourers, which is one of the best means that can be devised to prevent the factious bands from. obtaining recruits. SEPTEMBER 11.—The examinations which have just taken place in the Primary Lancasterian School.prove the excellence of that method of education. We lately announced that the Priest Cozar was, in pursuance of his sentence, executed at Ronda on the 28th ultimo. Mo. rales, another Priest, who carried the standard of the Faith, has undergone the same punishment. The last mail from France was stopped near Madrigaligo.- 1 The robbers, after binding the unfortunate courier, conveyed the car off the road, and took possession of the correspondence. They then held a conference to detqmine what they would do with him. Some were for putting him into the car and setting fire to it ; others were for cutting off his ears ; and a ti,ird set proposed to set him up as a mark to shoot at. While this dis cussion was going on, the diligence appeared. It was also taken off the road, and the passengers were plundered. The two car riages were then burnt, and. the travellers were obliged to pro ceed on foot, As there is no rebel corps of any consequence in that neighbourhood, and as the stopping of the mails and carry ing oir all the correspondence indicate political views, it is pro bable that these robbers are hired to do this work by the enemies a the constitutional system. Letters from Valencia bring a copy of the sentence of the Court-Martial on General Elio, which was confirmed on the 3d instant' by the ComMandant of the District. It concludes in the following terms :—" The Court have condemned, and do con demn, by an unanimity of votes, the said Lieutenant-General Don Xavier Elio to the ordinary punishment of the garrote, as provided ,for by the first article of the law of April 16, 1821, he beipg previously degraded." • The form of the notification of the sentence is as follows : " In the citadel of Valencia, this 3d of September, 1822, Don Thomas Hernandez, Lieutenant of Grenadiers of the Second Battalion of the National Volunteer Militia, in virtue of the sentence approved by the Commandant of the troops of this province, proceeded, accompanied by me, the notary, to the prison of the fort in which was Lieut.-Gen. Xavier Elio, the delinquent in this process, to notify to him the sentence, and ,having read it to him, a confessor was called, in ordtv that he might prepare himself like a Christian; and in proof of the same being done, the said Senor subscribed the notification; as I the undersigned Notary do certify. (Signed) 44 THOMAS HERNANDEZ. "Before me, MANUEL SANCHEZ CASTILLO." On the 4th, at eleven in the forenoon, the sentence was exe cuted. Elio was brought out of the ort, where he had been under confession ; he was escorted by two companies of grena diers, and a piquet of cavalry, along the road which passes round the new public walk, and the wall of the Convent of Pre dicadores to the Puerta del Real, the spacious plain' on which the scaffold was erected. There he expiated his treasons. 'The people behaved with that propriety which has always charac terized the Valencians. The greatest order and tranquillity prevailed. Never was the patriotic spirit Are favourablerto the progress of liberty. SEPTEMBER 12.—Baron'Eroles appears to have left the See de Urgel with 200 foot and 100 hots; and to have proceeded to wards Paris. - ' Letters from Alicant state that the National troops have defeated the factious in the neighbourhood of the pass of Ju milla. The banditti abandoned six horses, loaded with silks of great value, a considerable quantity of arms, and other property. On the 4th Genera Mina marched from Saragossa, and expected to reach Lerida on the 7th. We have already stated that the first operation of this able Commander would be di rected against the Seo de UFgcl, whither it is believed the whole faction will retire, leaving a small force at Balaguar. All the world is impatient to l earn t h e reso l ves o f t h e a p-, proaching Cong Tess of Verona, and all eyes watch the conduct of the new Ministry of Spain. The rise of the Spanish funds proves, however, that speculators entertain no fear of the fate of the Peninsula. The 'extraordinary couriers which have recently left Madrid have experienced no interruption on their way, and detach ments which protect the communications on the frontiers are now posted on the necessary points. We have, therefore, past, j ust ly disquiet e d t h e pu b l i c, w ill not recur ria ;on to believe that the irregularities w hi c h have, for these scme days again ; and we perceive, - wO. much satisfaction, that the Go- • • vernment has not neglected to give orders calculated to attain this important object. The King has appointed Don Juan Ramon de Hoces, Com missioner Pacificator to the Kingdom of Mexico. We are assisted that the General Officers and Colonels of the Garrison of Valencia, who avoided taking the command of the district after the sentence of the Court on Elio, have been sent off to the following points : viz., Lieut.-General Perellos to the Canaries,. Lieutenant-General.the Count de Calderon to Ibiza ; Brigadiers—lbarra, to Ceuta ; Lacerda, to the same place ; Marimon, to Bajados • Garcia, to Ibiza ; Mata linares, to Manilla; Gaztelu, to Puerto Rico ; Valparda, to Vigo ; Barrera, to Mahon ; Dieto, to the same place, Colonel Novella, to Tarifa ; Colonel Anillo, to Ibiza. The Government has also ordered an inquiry into the conduct of Brigadier Pereda, who was in quarters in Valencia: BAYONNE, SEPL. 19.—We this instant received a letter from Saragossa, of the 11th, which says, " The affairs of Ca talonia have taken-a serious turn, especially since the establish ment of the Regency at Urgel, which has been extremely ac tive for this month past. If we may believe its Proclamations, the reports its circulates, &c. its object is not to re-establish the Inquisition, absolute power, the suppressed convent, &c. ; but to substitute for the present institutions, others which should be more in harmony with the rights of the Monarch, the reli gion and the manners of his subjects." The Catalonian Army begins to be organized, and has al ready three divisions of 5,000 men each, tolerably armed and clothed, and disciplined in the French manner. The first acts in Campredor and Amperadan, and observes Gerona, Figuem, and the Port of Rosas, having seized on that of Felice de Luixol, where they committed a thousand excesses in conse quence of the resistance of the inhabitants. The 24 occupies the district of Manresa and Vich, and the cavalry advances even to the environs of Barcelona. The 3d occupies Agra mant, and is said to have at this moment made itself master of Cervera and Tarrega, having repulsed General Torrijos to wards Lerida. A certain force occupies Mequinenza, while others arc at Balaquer, alarming Lerida, and fomenting civil war on the sides of the Ebro, in Arragon. The Royalists of Balaquer are in communication with Quesada and the Trap pist, who were at Mouson, on the 17th, already making part of the army at Catalonia, by virtue of orders from the Junta at Urgel. The reinforcements received by the Constitutional troops at Lerida have been almost wholly absorbed to defend Arragon against the progress of the Royalists in that province. Mina was still at Lerida on the 6th, waiting for' the promised reinforcements. • The Catalonians have also, succeeded in send ing some Guerillas to Valencia by way of Tortosa, in which province they are pretty numerous, whence it is inferred that that their plan is to make themselves masters of the coast of Catalonia, from the mouth of the Ebro. to Rosas. They even speak of the approaching equipment of. some ships of war by command of the Junta at Urgel, for the purpose of blockading Barcelona, Tamgona, Mataro, and the other ports which are in the power of the Constitutional party. The Secret Committee in this city is rather disappointed in consequence of the orders from the Junta at Urgel for Quesada and the Trappist to go to Catalonia which counteracts the plan of Egma to form an army in Navarre ; Quesada, not choosins to be the victim of the false imputations 'of the Com mittee in Bayonne, and especially of Colonel Abrea, his de clared enemy, has taken the wisest part, in hopes of obtaining the command of a division of the Royal troops. On the 7th he joined the Royalists of Balaguer at ,Mouson, leaving 800 ill-disciplined men to Cabra, who occupies Irati and the moun tain of Roncal, and some parties in Navarre, which raise re cruits, levy contributions, and intercept the communications. Espinosa, whose plan was baffled by the disappearance of Quesada and the Trappist, who have taken away the flower of the troops in Navarre, viz. 4,900 foot arid 400 horse, has detached 1,900 men into Arragon, and occupied Ochagavia with 1,500 men. We have just received the letters from Spain, which shew that measures have been taken to secure the communication. There is nothing interesting in the Madrid Journals ; people were very uneasy at Madrid on account of the mail from France having been three times intercepted; they called on the Go vernment, for energetic measures, and we see that something has been done. The King has named General Mananiz, Master of the Ordi nance, in the room of D. Martin Loygorry. .His Majesty has assigned different places of banishment to nine Brigadiers and two Colonels quartered at Valencia, be cause their conduct is suspected, and public opinion points them out as enemies to the system. It is thought they will not be the only persons the King will exile, as each provinee has drawn up a list of persons whom it would be proper to remove from the capital. The Bishop of Segovia has issued a pastoral letter, in which, after shewing the advantages of our holy religion, he quotes some articles of the Constitution, and proves that they are not contrary to the dogmas of our religion ; but he says, that those who pretend to defend it insult it by calumnies, by indecent and blasphemous pamphlets and songs. The Eapeetador comments on this, and says the views of the clergy have done more injury to religion than is thought, since this has induced a great part of Europe to abandon the Catholic religion.— ( Madrid Papers, Sept. 19. ) BRUTAL OUTRAGE AND MURDER. On. Tuesday last an Inquest was taken at the Bull public-house, at Birling, before J. N. DUDLOW, Esq., Coroner, on view of the body of Ellen M'Carthy, a poor old woman, aged sixty-three, who was most cruelly and inhumanly beat and abused by a set of young men, on the evening of the Sunday preceding, and from which barbarous treatment she survived but a few hours. Our confined limits preclude us from giving a lengthened detail of this atrocious transaction, the circumstances attending which make us blush for our country, and but ill accord with that mild and gentle spirit by which we conceive ourselves animated. —From the evidence adduced on the Inquest, it appeared that the deceased and her husband had been drinking at the Bull public-house on Sunday afternoon, and on their return to Mr. 11ddison's (where they were hopping, and had been so em ployed for the last twenty years), a short distance from the public-house, they observed fifteen or sixteen young men standing by the stream. They had also been drinking at the public-house, and had declared that they would have a row with the deceased and her husband, who, when they approached them, were seized by these fellows ; the former was knocked down in the hedge and struck on her temples, they then kicked her and hit her with their fists. While this was going 'on, some of them took the old man up bodily, and carried him and threw him into a ditch some distance off, saying—" We have done for the old —, and we will now do as we like with the old They continued to abuse the poor old woman, and proceeded to acts too horrible and disgusting to name. At this juncture a man named Flint, who also worked for Mr. Addison, came along, and the fellows made off. He took the old man out of the ditch ; the deceased he found lying in the road quite senseless and speechless. The old man took her up, and endeavoured to carry her home, but his strength failed him ; he laid her in a hedge in a field adjoining, where she expired a few hours afterwards. He knew one of the men who was ring-leaders in the affair, his name he said was Adds, but none of the rest he could recognize. The deceased, it appeared, at ' the commencement of the transaction, was somewhat in liquor, but able to proceed from the public:house homeward without any assistance. Mr. G. Perfect, surgeon, who examined the body of the deceased, deposed that she had several-bruises about the body and head. He opened the head, and-found that the scalp was detached from the bone in several places, particularly on each temple, and over the left eye, from the effects of external violence. On removing part of the skull, he found nearly half a pound of coagulated blood upon the .brain, from a rupture of the principal blood vessel, which was the cause of deceased's death. She died from apoplexy, but whether the rupture of the blood-vessel was occasioned from intoxication, or from any violence or bruises which she re ceived, lie could not positively say. He thought the external violence which caused the bruises was sufficient to rupture the vessel. After the evidence had been gone through, the Coroner proceeded to address the Jury, who, after some deliberation, pronounced a verdict— Wilful Murder against Thomas Adds, and other persons unknown. Adds has since been taken, and committed to the county gaol, under the Coroner's warrant ; the others have for the present eluded the hand of justice.— ( Maidstone Journal. ) DOMESTIC COFFEE.—(From an Americdn Pa per.)—l have learned, to my great concern, that the good peo ple in Boston, and some parts of its vicinity, have lately ac quired the practice of using what they call " Domestic Coffee," by way of economy ; and after making some inquiry about it, I find some of it to be a compound of half rye and half import ed coffee ground together. When I made this discovery, I was at no great loss to account for the vast number of persons, who, of late, have suffered from weakness in their limbs, and debili tated systems. Rye is peculiarly calculated to produce that ef fect, in whatever way it may he used—more especially when " it has been roasted and ground with coffee, where every par ticle of fluid is extracted and absorbed in the coffee. Let rye be ground into meal, and bread made of the meal be eaten without sifting,, and it will have an effect similar to opium. Let the bran be given to pigs, and it will make them lie down and swell with weakness ;, but a person may eat of the fine meal without experiencing any ill effects. The reason of this is, that the debilitating fluid is attached to the hull of the grain. Let a horse eat as much rye as he will, and it will destroy him, by taking away, first the strength of his limbs, and then that of his whole body.
