IRELAND. TWO DREADFUL MURDERS IN THE COUNTY OF LIMERICK. Donuts . , Nov. 19.—A n extra edition of the Lime rick Chronicle, received this day, contains the follo,k ing account of two most atrocious murders perpetrated near that city yesterday : " LIMERICK CHRONICLE OFFICE, THUESDAY.—At eight o'clock this morning two dreadful murders were committed at Rathurd Castle, within two miles of this city. The victims of assassination,were Mr. Ralph Hill, sub•a gen t to David Fitzgerald, Esq., George's street, and a land bailiff, named Madden. It appears that Mr. Hill, in the discharge of his duty, had made a distress yesterday on corn belonging to John Quain, tenant to Benjamin Frend, Esq , who was indebted to his landl or d to a large amount. After the seizure ke e p ers were placed on the premises, and Mr. Hill r e t urned to Limerick. This morning, accompanied by Th omas Flannery, he again v i s i ted Quain's house, for the purpose of removing the corn from the haggards, where they were met by Quai n ' s son, with whom ' Mr. Hill was talking, when four shots were fired at him and his bailiffs, from behind the haggard, melancholy to relate, with fatal effect. Mr. Hill was killed on the spot, and the bailiff (Madden) also fell a victim to assassination. One of the keepers, James M'Mahon, was wounded on the head, th e s k ull having been laid bare by slugs, and Flannery received the contents of a gunshot in the back of the band. Thii atrocious outrage has created the greatest sensation in this city, where Mr. Hill, an intelligent inoffensive man, of active habits, and formerly a sergeant in the city militia, was well known and respepted. There will be an inquest this day on the Wales. The carmen who went out to bring in the corn seized fled in all directions when the shots were fired. Two men have been arrested, one of whom is identified as a principal in the murder." STATE OF TIPPERARY—MEASURES OF GOVERNMENT. The Evening Mail contains the following address from the Earl of Donoughmore, Lieutenant of Tip perary : "To the Magistrates of the North Riding of the county of Tipperary. " Palmerstone-house, Nov. 18, 1847. " Gentlemen,—Partaking as I do, in common with yourselves, in the sentiments of respect and esteem for Mr. R. Bayly, which all who know his character and witnessed his usefulness must entertain, I can find no words to express the horror which I felt when the appalling news reached me of the murderous assault by which his valuable life has been endangered. This is but one of the numerous murderous outrages by which our unhappy country has been disgraced, and which indicates a system of atrocity which, as long as it is suffered to prevail, must leave every man's life at the mercy of cowardly and miscreant assassins. As Lieutenant of the county, I have felt it my duty to accompany a deputation to the Lord-Lieutenant, by whom a statement was laid before his Excel lency, which clearly showed the utter impossibility of meeting the secret combinations with which we have to contend by the ordinary operations of the law. Lord Clarendon fully felt the force of our representations, and I do believe has seen the necessity for prompt and energetic measures. I can only say, at present, that I firmly rely on his wis dom and determination to do whatever can be done to restore the reign of law and order. With this conviction on my mind, I do not consider it expe dient at present to call a meeting of the magistrates of the North Riding; in my opinion, they could add no new facts to those stated by the deputation ; and such a meeting would but expose the individuals who would come forward to express their abhorrence of those deeds of blood is the violence of the wretches by whom they have been contrived and perpetrated, and only add other victims to the number of those by whose loss so many families have been deprived of their best protectors. Parliament is now about to meet, and I know that our case is under the conside ratian of the authorities : I trust, therefore, that you will agree with me, that any public demonstration on our part should be deferred until we learn their de termination respecting the frightful state of our country. " I am, gentlemen, your most obedient, humble servant, " DONOUGHMORE. Lieutenant." ALARMING STATE OF THE COUNTRY. DunLiri, Noir. 20.—A ictter of yesterday an nounced the murders of a land-agent and bailiff in the county of Limerick. This day intelligence ha 3 been received of several more murders ; one in the county , f Tipperary, the victim being an agent of the Mar. (pis of Ormonde, who was shot yesterday at Kilcash, two in the northern county of Tyrone, one in Mayo, and another in Limerick. Even in the metropolis this wholesale system of assassination has produced a feeling of consternation. DREADFUL MURDER IN TIFFERARY.—From a private letter, received in town this day, we have the afflicting intelligence that the cub-gent of the Mar• quis of Ormonde was murdered yesterday, at Kil cash, on the property of the Noble Marquis, within about six miles of Clonmel, in the county of Tip perary.—Evening Post. A report was received in town last evening that a gentleman named Toole was shot near Limerick yes erday.—Saunders's News Letter. TUB LATE ATTAC K ON MR. BAYLY —Thursday) a meeting of the ex officio guardians of the Nenagh union, over which Mr. Bayly so well presided for the last five or six years, was held at Brundly's Hotel, Nenagh, to take into consideration the atrocious attack on their chairman, and to adopt such measures Is, after due deliberation, they should agree on. The press was excluded as we ll as the public; b ut we be deft that unanimous application was made to Go vernment for an increased military and police force, and that an Arms Act and Coercion Bill were called for. Six persons were yesterday (Friday) ar rested on suspicion of the outrage, and lodged in the ounty gaol of Nenagh. Their names are Patrick llogan, John Hogan, Thomas Hogan; James Hogan, Thomas Dwyer, and John Ryan. We are happy to illy that up to this moment (Friday ever.ing, half past seven o'clock), Mr. Bayly has been going on as well as can be expected --Tipperary Vindicator. KING'S COUNTY...—BANAGHER, THURSDAY. — On Wednesday night a party visited the house of Mrs. Neill, but recently left a widow, and left in posses sion of a farm. The relatives of the husband de manded possession, a discussion ensued, and advice wing taken, it was resolved she should leave the :louse until the difference calmed down. She went to her father, Mr. Larken's house, and on Wednes day night a party of armed men called and demanded to see her. The widow's father, an aged man, with her brother at the door, resisted the entrance of the narauders. A struggle ensued, shots were fired, .Ind Mr. Larken was wounded in the arm, the son in the neck, not, we hope, dangerously.

It is reported that he received a blow of a loaded whip on the head, but he afterwards transacted business and did not complain of being injured. Iu the course of the evening, after having drunk, it is said, pretty freely, he retired to bed, and shortly after expired.—Tyrawly Herald. COUNTY OP TYRONFL—DREADFUL MURDER.—Po- MEROY, Nov. 16.—About ten o'clock this morning a bailiff named John Heazelton, went out to execute a session decree on the person of Felix Linn, at the suit of Peter M`Gone, of this town. The debt was for two g uns which M'Gone sold to Linn last winter. Linn had secreted himself in the house of a man of the name of Mooney, who keeps an apothecary's shop in this town. Out of this house he sallied at the ahoy* hour, accompanied by four of his brothers, all armed with bayonets, pitchforks, and pistols. The party had not proceeded more than thirty perches out of the villa g e when the bailiff arrested Linn. A dreadful affray now took place, in which unfortunate Heazelton was stabbed in the side with a bayonet by Linn, of w hi c h woun d h e di ed in the course of they day.

STABLE AT DAGENHAM. DAGENHAM, SATURDAY.—This village and the surrounding neighbourhood have, during the last few days, again been the scene of outrages of the gravest description, and unfortunately a poor policeman of the IC division has become the victim of the lawless gang frequenting this part of the county of Essex. The spot selected for these outrages is within a few yards of the field where the policeman Clark was to brutally murdered in. June, 1846, and about the most desolate and secluded part of the county. It appears that on Saturday, the 6th instant, a man named George Edwards, a labourer, living at Dagen ham, was brought before the Ilford Bench of Magis trates, charged by Police-constable Brown with steal ing a glass belonging to Mr. Green, the landlord of the White Hart, at Dagenham. He took him into custody, but Mr. Green declining to come forward and prosecute, the magistrates discharged him. On leaving Ilford the prisoner threatened to serve Brown out the first time he saw him. Brown took no notice of the threat, and at nine o'drock the same night went on duty, his beat being along the green lanes round the village of Dagenham. About 11 o'clock at night, be went into the Robin Hood beer-shop, in Wood. lane, which is only a short distance from the spot where Clarke was murdered, to assist the landlord in clearing the house, and among the men present was George Edwards. Having got the men out of the house, Brown was proceeding on his beat, when he was felled to the ground, as it is supposed, with a blow from a stick. He got up again, when he was again knocked down by a violent blow on the nose, and fell into a ditch. He managed to scramble out, and drew his staff calling out for assistance, but was a third time knocked to the groun d, and hilst lying down was most brutally kicked and knocked about. His cries for help attracted the notice of the landlord of the Robin Hood, who on going out found the poor fellow lying by the side of a ditch, weltering in blood. On being carried into the house he was found to be perfectly insensible, his face was covered with blood and scarcely a feature discernable. On the blood being washed away his nose was found to be com pletely smashed, and his head, face, and chest covered with contusions. Information of the outrage was f zwarded to the station at Ilford, and Inspector Proctor, with Mr. Allison, surgeon, immediately pro • ceeded to Dagenham. For three or four days after the .poor fellow remained in a totally unconscious state, but at length was able to inform Acting-Sergeant Crawford that Edwards was the man who had so cru elly assaulted him. On the 11th Edwards was appre hended, and on the following day was taken before Octavius Masheter, Esq., one of the magistrates for the county of Essex. On Saturday the prisoner was brought up before William Cotton, Esq, and a full bench of m ag i s t ra t es, at Ilford. On eing placed at the bar, The Chairman said the magistrates of course would allow another remand. The prisoner, a thick set fellow, habited in a smock frock, wished to know if the magistrates would not take bail. The Chairman.--Moat decidedly not. Mr. Masheter said he understood that if ever the poor fellow recovered he would from the nature of the injuries he had received, be totally disabled from duty as a police constable any more.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order that it may be really the eauso of mutual happiness.

Excesses physicalto are disqaulalwiailycs injurious; atiosan h and theire Kitt, attendanttwhich wdishaep; used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the stature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains au accurate and complete account of tke Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative couditlons in health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health, and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or front the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread es frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where alone it can he procured. In acting thus, he forguts that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of disease., sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligott and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show by his posse sion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes sional pursuits, the utmost coafidence should be extended. Dr. LasaIERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas tehtify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

Another meeting of the Young Ireland party was to have been held in the Belfast Theatre on Thurday; I}ut ,:wifig to the threatenir 61 1 - 11 111,1), and affidavits of apprehended tumult lodged with the ma gistrates, a strong police force was sent to shut the theatre doors, and prevent the meeting from being S N I NOVEMBER 23, 1847. held. The Benner of Ulster, in its description of the proceedings, says-- "Mr. O'Brien and the remainder of the confede rates endeavoured to effect an entrance, but the police were acting un d er super i or orders, and prevented the success of the effort. " Mr. S. O'Brien, finding his endeavours ineffsc tual, took off his hat in front of the theatre and com menced to address the multitude. Men of Belfast-- (Immense groaning and cheers)—men of Belfast— (Groans)—l come here—(groans) —in the perform ance of a sacred duty.—(Cries of ' Three cheers for John O'Connell,' which were lustily responded to) I say I come here in the performance of a sacred duty. (The crowd at this stage had pressed so upon the Hon. Gentleman that the police were obliged to beat them back, and the yelling had become terrific.) Will you hear me ? I don't want the police at all; I wish to speak as a freeman.—(' Are you a friend of O'Connell's ?') lam a friend of this country ; and, what is more, I am a friend of yours.— (Cries of ' Down with him, the -- traitor,' and You killed O'Connell.2 I have come to Belfast—(' Three cheers for John 0 Connell," Old Ireland for ever.') I have come—(lncreased uproar, if the din could at all have been greater, amid which one of the auditors called out—' to let the gentleman alone.') "Mr. C. M'Donnell—Don't go away, Mr. O'Brien. Stay here and you will g e t a h ear i ng . "At this moment an extraordinary movement was visible in tha.throng, every one seeming anxious to get out of the way,' and no person near the speaker seeming to understand the reason. A few seconds, however, solred the mystery—a bite or two on the legs, and a loud bark from a couple of ferocious bull-dogs, which had been evidently procured for the occasion, and let loose upon the people, satisfying those present that they had something more formi dable than human tongues to deal with. Some ruffians in the crowd were observed hunting on the savage animals, and our reporter plainly heard one man say, Hiss—at O'Brien's throat.' The police, for about a minute, were unable to drive off the dogs, and it was only when the ribs of the brutes felt the cold steel of the bayonets, that their master or masters had a certainty that the tender menaces of their pets were attended with no evil effects to the men. Ott some degree of order being restored, " Mr. O'Brien continued-1 call upon the Govern ment of this country—l call upon the Parliament of this country—(Clamour and tumult, the crowd press ing the police forward towards Mr. O'Brien)—l call upon the people of this country—(Renewed uproar) —to resist the interference of the police force with their rights as citizens to meet and deliberate on that which concerns the public weal.—(Cheers and groans). I here, before you, protest against the power of the magistrates to deny me admission to this house, and I protest against. their denyi ng a d m i ss i on to t h ose who come with me—(Cheers and tumult)—and I say that I will hold these magistrates responsible, not only for the violence done to our own persons, but for the violation of those rights which we, as citizens, possess. —(Cries of ' Go home to Limerick; we don't want you here,' and Who killed O'Connell ?' mingled with furious yelling). The magistrates acted upon an affidavit, and I have only to add, that that affidavit merely stated that it was be lieved that an attempt would be made to prevent us from entering this theatre, but that cannot prevent us from holding another meeting.—(Groans.) I now again ask 'admission to this theatre.--[Mr. O'Brien turned towards the door, but was refused entrance.] There being no difficulty but that interposed by the police officers, and the present opportunity being denied us of meeting, I call upon the magistrates to let us know what time we will be allowed to hold a meeting.--(Renewed clamour, amid which Mr. O'Brien turned once more to the police, but Mr. Lindsay again declined permitting the deputation to enter, firmly but calmly stating he was acting under the orders of the magistrates, and that he was only performing his duty, by obeying their commands. " Mr. John Rea, who had made the affidavit before the magistrates, stated that his object was to obtain the protection of the civil power.) " Mr. John Mitchel stated that he had taken down the names of the magistrates, with the view of pro ceeding against them by law. They had determined to hold a meeting, and neither the impertinence of a court of petty sessions nor the bellowing of Hercules street would prevent them from holding one to morrow at one o'clock.—(Awful uproar.) The mooting to morrow would. 'Jut be im iikljUUrtiVa IlleCt ing. They would hold to-morrow a meeting of the citizens of Belfast.— (Renewed clamour.) " Mr. S. O'Brien—We shall now formally demand admission. I demand (said Mr. O'Brien, turning to the police force) admission iton this house. " Mr. Lindsay—You cannot get in, sir. " Mr. O'Brien here walked close to the police, who gently removed him backward from the door. Messrs. Ilea and M'Ghee then pursued the same course, together with Messrs. Meagher and Martin. Mr. Mitchel observed that he had been forcibly removed twice from the door already, and that was enough for him. " Mr. S. O'Brien then addressed Mr. Cunningham, lessee of the theatre. He said— You, of course, un derstand that this building has been engaged for the purpose of receiving a deputation from Dublin. We came hero to demand admission, and have been pre vented by the police. Was that done by your autho rity ? " Mr. Cunningham —Certainly not by mine. " Mr. O'Brien—Do you see any obstacle to our entering this house, which we have engaged, except that made by the police ? " Mr. Cunningham —Decidedly not. " Mr. O'Brien —Have you any objection to our holding a meeting here to-morrow ? ‘• Mr. Cunningham —I have none whatever to your meeting here to-morrow. I have nothing to do with the legality or the illegality of the meeting. I leave that with the magistrates. " The deputation then moved from the theatre, Mr. Smith O'Brien expressing his determination to go through Hercules-street, and such a scene of confusion and tumult as ensued has rarely been wit nessed. Offensive epithets of every description were used to Mr. O'Brien. He was by turns a ' hang man,' a cut-throat,' a murderer; and at last the wrath of the mob began to expend itself in the throw ing of stones, Mr. O'Brien receiving rather a severe knock in the face from one of the missiles in Corn Market. A regular enzeute was on the point of breaking out, when the police, with great difficulty, preserved their position, and the deputation were in duced to retreat to war d s the Royal Hotel." At 12 o'clock on Friday, Dr. Enright, coroner, held an inquest upon the body of Mr. Hill, within the precincts of the county gaol. A jury having been empannelled, they proceeded to the dead-house of the County Infirmary, to view the mutilated re mains of the unfortunate victim, which presented a horrifying spectacle, the face being swollen and dis figured with powder and blood. There were three gun-shot wounds on the person, two at the lobe of the ear, at the angle of the jaw, o n th e r i g ht s id e o f th e head, which communicated directly with the spine, which was extensively fractured. The third (sup posed to have been inflicted by slugs) was on the right side of the face, under the eye, which fractured the floor of that orbit, passed underneath the cartil lages of the nose, which were completely shattered, and came out at the left side at a point corresponding with the orifice of the entrance. The first witness examined was Thomas Flannery, one of the bailiffs, who deposed to the facts of the case as already detailed. lie fully identified James Skehan as leaping over the ditch with a gun in his hand immediately after the shots, and from the spot the shot came that wounded M'Mahon, and as having been about the place for three weeks before, and having threatened the deceased. He also swore that Quain's daughter (Mary M'Narnara) was the woman he saw in the haggards whence the shots came. The following evidence was then given : Prisoner—You are much mistaken, for I was not there at all at the time. When I went to the house it was the first news I heard. Witness—There was a shot fired as the keepers were running away. I saw Mary M'Namara and her mother looking at the end of the house as we were coming up the iroad at first. I could not be mistaken in her. I had a pistol in my possession, and when I was running away I endeavoured to pull it out of my pocket to have a shot at our assailants, but my hand being cold it fell on the ground ; when I stooped to take it up I saw a man jump over the ditch with a gun in his hand. It was near where Mr. Hill fell. That man was apprehended yester day, but Ido not know his name. I identified him the moment he was arrested.—(James Skehan was here brought forward.) That is the man. Conorian (to Skehan)—Where are you from? Prisoner—From O'Brien's-bridge, county Clare. Mr. Barron (stipendiary magistrate) —When arrested yesterday he gave me his name as Keane. vlout o r fi . t Qn C eu r s i as p i— p n sl — shw C a e e g r ag t ra a pr i n do s l . tH , v h ee e l yh g ah a de v sa his th e gunnma i m a n n e h t h a i saa hand at that time. He was not attired as at present. He then wore a grey coat and a straw hat. I could not be deceived in him, for I saw him three weeks before, when the corn was seized. I also saw him when I was losting the notice fur sale, and again the day before the murder, at quain's house. was speak- [PaicE 51). , ing to him the day previous, when Mr. Hil and I went to Rathure. I asked him for the key of the barn, and the answer he made was, that he couldn't give it, as Mrs. Qunin hadit, and was gone to town. Mr. Hill said, "We can't be waiting, get a piece of iron and break in the door." I didn't du so, but raised my leg and kicked in the door. When I did so, Skehan said, "You'll bo sorry for th:it, my good fellow." After the murder I came into Limerick, to Mr. Fitzgerald's office, and reported the occurrence. Five of the City police and Mr. Cripps, a magistrate, at once . returned with me to the scene of outrage. The artillery . were there. I heard some one say he saw a man - running along the hedge. I didn't sc.‘e birp, but when he was made a prisoner' aftcrw.grds, I identified him. Skehan is the pars , n. lie had but one shoe on when arrested ; the other was found by a policeman behind a ditch at Quain's bounds. It was the fellow of the one the prisoner (Skehan) wore. When asked where his shoe was, he said he did'nt know. lie at first refused to put on the shoe . .found by the police, observing it was not his. A juror —We should like to examine one of the carmen who watf, present. Witness—They were a great distance behind. Prlioner—Ye all came up together. Alderman WATSON—You are a great fool to say anything that may tell against you. Witness (to Mr. Barron)—The shot which wound ed M‘Mahon was fired from the spot where Skehan leaped over the ditch out upon the road. I know no more of the transaction. Dr. Gelston was next examined, and described the wounds received by the deceased, as already stated. He gave it as his opinion that death must have been instantaneous. The jury returned a verdict, " That the deceased, Ralph Hill, came by his death at Rathure, hi the county of Limerick, on the morning of the 18th inst., having been wilfully murdered by gunshot wounds inflicted by some person or persons to us unknown." In the afternoon the remains of Mr. Hill were con veyed from the infirmary to his residence in Clare street, followed by sorrowing friends. An order was received this day from his Excel lency the Lord-Lieutenant, for the ordnance wag gons to proceed to Rathure to bring in the corn of Quain's family, distrained by the late Mr. Ralph Hill, as the carmen of this city refused to be em ployed in the service. The distraint Hill be removed to town under escort of military and police this afternoon. CONVICTION OF GAMBLERS. At the Leeds Court-house, on Monday, no less than eight parties, proprietors of booths or stalls in the Free-Market, during the recent fair, at each of which a " wheel of fortune" was kept, were arraigned before the presiding magistrates, Francis Carbutt (the Mayor), and Edward Baines, Esqrs. Their names were Julia Bromley, Martha Lee, Thomas Sykes, Chistopher and Mary Ann Seed, I?. Chapman, and James Wilkinson and his son. The parties were charged under the sth Geo. W., chap. 83, which provides that " every person playing or betting in any street, road, highway, or other open and public place, at or with any table or in strument of gaming, at any game, ouretended game of chance," shall be deemed a rogue and vagabond, and shall render him or herself liable to be impri soned for a period not exceeding three months. The first case proceeded with was that of Julia Bromley. Mr. Superintendent James, of the Leeds police, stated that the prisoner had been cautioned on Satur day morning that she must not keep a " wheel of fortune" in the market, as it was illegal. When, however, he went into the market on the evening of Saturday, he taw her standing at her stall, with a tin box, containing a number of tickets, which she invited parties to draw at a penny each. She was surrounded by a number of boys sad girls, many of whom were trying their Cluck by putting in their pence, and he saw them draw out tickets and receive some trifling article. This statement was confirmed by two of the police. Mr. Naylor, who appeared for the whole of the prisoners, contended that this case did not come within the meaning of the statute—that the act of the prisoner could not be construed an act of vagrancy, inasmuch as she was exerriqino. whet he was a tairiul calling—a kind of commercial spe culation. The magistrates, however, thought otherwise, and sentenced the prisoner to seven days' imprisonment in the borough gaol. The ease a Martha Lee was exactly similar to the above, and she was sentenced to a similar term of imprisonment. In the case of Thomas Sykes, Mr. James stated that the prisoner was one of the parties who had been ap prehmcled by the poliee on the previous week, under the Leeds Improvement Act. After it had been de cide 4 by the - na,.,.--istrotes that the clause did not apply to the case, he threatened him (M r . J ames ) th roug h his attorney, with an action if he did not restore him a-" wheel of fortune," which had been seized by the oolice. Kell deposed that the prisoner kept a stall in the market on Saturday night, which was covered at both ends, and at various times, between s:x and ten _o'clock, he heard him invite parties to try their luck in the wheel of fortune. He had seen several persons put in a shilling each, and draw out articles not worth above 21. or 3d. He had examined the 'tickets in the box, and he found that it contained about 200. Out of the whole of these there were only about three priz?s worth from Is. to 4s. each, and a clock that might be of the value of 12s. The rest of the 200 tickets were for articles varying from id. to 3d. or 4d. The value of the whole of *the articles which these tickets represented would not exceed 31., if they would amount to so much; so that, reckoning the 200 tickets at Is. each, the prisoner would clear 71. by the contents of each wheel, without risking a shil ling. But this was not all; parties after drawing one ticket with which they were dissatisfied, put in an other 6d. and drew again, and thus they went on until they had spent perhaps ss. or 10s., or emptied their pockets, without getting an :illicit worth the sum they had at first adventured. Sir. Naylor contended that the prisoner must be acquitted, on the ground, first, that he was a licensed hawker, and, secondly, that, as he lived in the booth, it did not come under the description "street or public highway." The magistrate overruled the objections, and the prisoner was committed to the borough gaol for seven days. All the other prisoners were likewise convicted, and sentenced to a similar term of imprisonment, except the elder Wilkinson, against whom - the offence was not proved.—Leeds %Mercury. REMOVAL OF TUE QUADRANT ARCADE.--A corre spondent of the Builder says—" The announcement in your last number relative to the proposal by the Com missioners of Weeds to remove the quadrant Arcade, cannot be allowed. to pass unnoticed. The object they can have in doing so it is difficult to conceive; for as an architectural feature it is equally pleasing and Unique, and forms a most graceful termination to the street; besides which it is one of the few places in London where there is a footway sheltered from the weather. If the objection to it is the description of loungers for whom it forms an attraction, that is easily prevented, as it has lately been by the police, or by the erection of such a number of additional arcades in the newly-form ing streets, that one should not be more attractive than another; or if the deficiency of light to the shops is un satisfactory to the inhabitants, the roof may easily be made almost entirely of glass. While Paris rejoices in its Valais Royale and galleries, Venice in its Piazza, and Berne and other cities in their arcades, the convenience and beauty of which are so strikingly felt by all who visit them, why should a feature possessing originality as well as beauty and propriety, be swept away to gratify some foolish prejudice?"—[lt is only right to say, that this step has been forced on the Commissioners by the inhabitants of the houses.] JUVENILE OFFENDERS. C. S. Greaves, Esq., -- barrister, has just publi,hed a practical commentary on the recent Act of Parliament applying to criminal juvenile off.milors, and concludes his preface with the follwing suitable observation:—" To magistrates who may be called upon to deal with cases under the pro visions of this statute, I would observe th a t th ey h ave a mo st critical and anxious duty to discharge; and I would entreat of them, upon every occasion when a juvenile offender is brought before them, to reflect that they are placed in a position of judges and n j rymen; th a t t h e defendant is almost a c hild ; t h at his d( stiny in lif e may be for over fixed by th e i r decision; an d that that deci s i on is final and con c l us i ve, and neit her open to appeal, nor any other proceedings, by means of which the merits of the case can be reconsidered, or any error into which they may have fallen can be. corrected." This most wholesome recommendation cannot be too gravely con sidered by justices who now have to deal with criminal juvenile offenders whose age does not exceed fourteen years; and will entirely depend u p on t h e acts of justices in carrying out t hi s new enactment whether it becomes Popular or whether ren dered unpopular, or, in other words, beneficial and p alatable , or whether mischievous and distasteful. la et it have "a fair trial" before the public pronounce their judgment. THE REV. DR. SCORESBT.—Our late vicar, the Rev. Dr. Scoresby, is again on a visit to the new world. He left this country on the 6th of October, and we are glad to hear that accounts have been received of his safe arrival at the place of his destination.—Bradford Observer. MONEY-MARKET and CITY NEWS. CITY, MONDAY EV E NING: TIMES.—The B an k of England intimated this ,morning to parties applying. for discounts that the rate would now be 7, instead of 8, per cen t ., an d , • •; • to this ; the .knglish Funds have experienced a xpe• blo rise. Consols opened at 84* td -I, and, "nfinenee of some large sales, receded to 84. •'int the Inarket continued dull until the dopted by•the Bank became known, when an wince took place, -- and the quotation reached 84i. Towards the close of business, however, the market - slightly gave way, on account of difficulties which transpired in con nex i on with 'the W ss t I n di a B ank, and the final price was 84i to f. For the .18th of to January ConSols gan at 84* to 85, r ece d e d to 844, and closed at 851 The Countess - of Lonsdale steamer, from Ham burgh, has brought between 15,0001. and 36,000/. in gold. By the Giraffe, from Rotterdam, not more than 3001. has come. The Soho, froth Antwerp, has brought no specie. We are glad to understand that the transactions between the Union Bank of Madrid and Messrs. Magniac, Jardine, and Co., have been for many months past contracted within a very narrow com pass. With regard to the prospects of the liquidation of the Union Bank, it will be impossible to form any conjecture until the conduct of Mr. Bagneres, the managing director, who is at present under arrest., on a ch arge of abstracting the funds of the bank, shall have been ascertained by a formal investi gation. COWL_ under th At - that colt- The drafts of the West India Bank were to day refused acceptance by their agents, the Union Bank of London, the reason being that the West India Bank had, against the repeated and emphatic warnings of the manager of the Union Bank, con tinued to make purchases of the bills of Higginson, Dean, and Stott, of Barbadocs, on Barton, Irlam, and Higginson, of Liverpool, to an extent that was certain to prove dangerous. The capital of the con cern, which was established about two years back, is only 120,0001., but its liabilities are very large, and wholly disproportioned to this amount. Exchange operations constitute one extensive feature of the business carried on, and the bank is said to hold no less than 80,0001. of the paper of Barton, Irlam, and Co. Its cash deposits held on interest are very large, and it also issues notes. Judging from the last balance-sheet presented, dated August 27, 1847, a copy of which we subjoin, the general affairs of the institution appear to have been conducted in a most unsound manner, the cash in hand to meet 413,540/. of notes in circulation, balances due to other banks, and deposits from customers, being only 34,1671., or less than one-twelfth of the amount : WEST INDIA BANK.

The effect of the suspension, therefore, if it shall be forced to suspend, will be severe and extensive. The suspension of Messrs. J. and H. Reay, an old and respectable house in the wine trade, - was an nounced this afternoon. The actual debts of the firm are said to he small, the amount being about 20,0001., but from the extent of their dealings their liabilities in the shape of endorsements on bills are considerable, and it is from the default of the parties primarily responsible upon these that the necessity for stoppage is understood to have arisen. The assets of the house are believed to show a considerable sur plus in the shape of claims, but it is of course impos table to calculate upon the ultimate results of the liquidation until these claims shall have been put in process of collection. Messrs: Lackersteen and Co., East lathe merchants, Ili a W. 1.. • ." LA • honoured on the 23d ult., but who have since been making every effort to sustain themselves, we e com pelled this morning, on the arrival of the Indian mail, to make a definite announcement of their stop page, the bills remitted to them being chiefly those of Cockerell and ,Co. and of the Union Bank of Calcutta, whose drafts Messrs. Glyn and Co. declined to accept about four weeks back. The acceptances of the firm are stated at a little above 100,0001, and they appear, after a series of unfortunate circumstances, to have sustained a heavy blow from the failure of Trueman and Cook. It is understood that Trueman and Cook had accepted bills to the amount of 20,0001. on pro duce placed in their hands by tile firm, 18,000/. of which became due on the 19th instant., and that as .the maturity of these bills .approached, Trueman and Cook usged the sale of such produce. on the ground that they would otherwit.e be unabl e . to meet the bills in question. To this sale 'Acker stcens gave consent, and it took place about a fort night back ; Trueman and Cook's failure, however, followed almost immediately, and it was then found that the proceeds thus realised had not been set aside by them for the above bills, but had been merged is the general assets of their house. It is said .that the. firm of Lackersteen andliro thers, of Calcutta will not be compromised by the suspension of Lackersteen, of London, and it is there fore believed it will be able to stand its ground. At the adjourned meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Judah Cohen and Sons, held this afternoon, it was finally agreed that the estate should be liqui dated under inspection. Mr. Silver, Mr. Isaacs, Mr. Hales, and Mr. White being the parties appointed. As it was considered that the services of Mr. Albert Cohen alone were necessary to carry out the liquida tion, Mr. Henry Cohen, the other partner, has been relieved from further active interference in the affairs of the house. MELANCHOLY CASE OF POISONING. TRATCRAM, BEERS, SATURDAY NIGHT. . — The usual quiet of this village has been disturbed this week by a most melancholy case of poisoning, which bas occurred in the family of Mr. Jenkyns, a farmer, living near the water-side. The unfortunate person is Mary Jenkyns, a daughter of this farmer, who was living with her parents and sisters. It appears, froth the inquiry we have made, that Mary Jenkyns had, been quarrelling with one of her sisters about a young man win) had paid his ad dresses to her. The sister, it is stated, had been ac cused by Mary of having endeavoured to aupphint her, but this was denied, and Mary b e i ng a person of hasty temperament, sought to frighten her sister by taking a quantity of arsenic, and this she did on Monday morning last. Towards the evening of that day Mrs. Jenkyns saw that her daughter was un well and depressed in spirits, and asked th e cause of her indisposition. On this inquiry the poor . young creature, who had evidently suffered considerably d • sister, during thedayh,ad passe d between herself an then informed her mother that a fe w angry words and that in a fit of vexation , she mixed nearly a tea spoonful of arsenic in her tea at breakfast and drunk it on purpose to alarm her sister. Immediately on this fact being made known, messengers were dis patched for medical assistance, and shortly afterwards Dr. Hemsted and Mr. Lamb, of Newbury, and Mr. Arrowsmith, of Thatcham, were in attendance, and every remedy which medical skill could suggest was adopted, but the poison had been taken too long to enable them to remove it from the stomach. In ad dition to this, the young wom an, when s e i ze d w ith pain, sought to a ll ev i ate i t by taking a dose of Ep som salts. The medical men have been unremitting in despaired o f atten tionshe r but from the first they rec t o c ve her, death relieved her until recovery, and the poor creature lin gered from Monda y yesterday morning, when years of f rom suffering. The deceased is about 20 age.
