P. 13ussie, Vivian, Jones, King, CHRONlCCE.—Notwithstanding the low price of our manufactured goods, foreigners still keep al:id from our markett, and our export trade with the Continent does not much improve. Oar prohibitory laws have compelled foreigners to become manufacturers themselves, and to de pend upon their home supply. The truth of this must force itself upon the notice of our legislators, and show them the necessity of providing new markets to support the courage of our artisans, and give a fresh impetus to British enterprise. Money is abundant, but it is from the dullness of trade, and capitalists do not feel disposed to make investments until they can judge•with greater cer tainly r,f the coming harvest. The Bank of England have been again sEllirl secu rities, which, in conjunction with the other causes above alluded to, 'may account for the dullness in the Engjish Stock Market. tlEßALD.—M.rehants will be glad to learn that the Mexican Government had it in contem plation to abolish the 15 per cent. additional dut y on goods for internal transit and consumption which had been so much com plained of, and in effect had contributed to paralyse the - trade and diminish the receipts of the custom-houses at the ports. An amount o f certificates given here in exchange for coupcns, in pursuance of the con, version of the debt effected by the agents, had been received and presented at the custom-houses of Vera Cruz and Tampico, equal to nearly 100,0001., nearly the whole of which had been taken in and absorbed in payment of customs duties. Hereafter, ac cording to previous agreement, and to avoid the inconve niences of not being able to make remittances as provision far the dividends here, from the uncertainty of the propor tion which might be wanted of the custom-house rccetpts, set apart for the purpose, to meet the admission of their certificates in Mexico, their emission is to cease, and the remittances are to be made direct, which will tend bene ficially to simplify the business for all parties. The Mex ican Governnaent has so far fulfilled its late engagements with honour and punctuality, and so long as those at pre sent at the head of aff ars remain there is every reasonable guttr,lntce for the public confidence in future. (From the Morning Po t.) .t is urged that the public-houses are epen on Sundays, except during the hours of divine servic-, and that it is a hatdship not to allow people into the National G 1 llerv, when they arc allowed to buy and drink intoxicatingliquors in taverns. It is a strange argument that, because one bad thing is allowed, another of at least very doubtful good should be allowed also. If the inequality of the circum stance of ginshops and of the National Gallery of pictures be a hardship, let Mr. Flume move to shut up all giusbops from Saturday night till Monday morning. / Co do this would, we think, b 3 to t ffect a real good for the tvcriOng classes. It would not, however, please them—quite the contrary; and we very much suspect that to please certain fanciful theorists who take a political lead among the work ing people, rather than to do these people any real good, is the object of such projectors as Mr. flume. Among the many topsy-turvy symptoms of the present time, few are more palpable than the real neglect of the substantial interests. of the British common people, and the affected earnestness about their recreations anti amusements. ( From the Morning Herald.) The third leading of the Ecclesiastical Duties and Re venues Bill was moved, last night, by Lord John Russell. A long discussion followed, in the course of which scseral amendments were proposed by Sit Robert luglis, by Mr. Goulhurn, by Mr. Arland, and by Sir Thomas Arland. Those amendinJits tended all, more or less,.to limit the mischievous operation of the measure ; but no patching nor tinkering could suffice to neutralise the pernicious nature of the principles on which the Bill is founded. Those principles arc, as Sir Robert Inglis well observed, entitled principles of appropriation :—tbey are, in truth, princit, - .les of spoliation. Mr. Hume admiAed the true tendency and character of the measure, when he declared that his only objection to it, consisted in the fact, that it did not go far enough in placing ecclesiastical property at the disposal of Government. Ecclesiastical property, accord ing to Mr. flume and reasoners of his school, is public property. This assumption lies at the bottom of all mo dern 4. re:forms" of the Church :—all such " reforms," therefore, are to be resisted at all hazards, and to the ut termost. It is utterly untrue, that Chutch property is public property. Church property, undoubtedly, stands to the public in a relation different in some respects from that in which private property stands; but Church property as little belongs to the public, as do the possessions of any in dividual member of the community. The administrators of public affairs are, ex.dficio, trustees for the right ma nagement of Church property ; but trusteeship in the case of the State, no more than in the case of private in dividuals, conveys to the trustee any - right of absolute ,erty. POST.—The acTclinEs from Mexico report a Llling off in the returns of the United Mexican Mines, the weekly value of which, deducting expenses, being r e duced to $l,BOO. Mr. Schoolx-cd, the manager, expected, how ever, to make a remittance .by time next packet of from $25,000 to $30,000 on account of the mine. The Mal ludo mine, formerly belonging to the Anglo-Mexican Com pany, and adjoining the property of the United Mexican.; is described as being exceedinly rich; It is to be re gretted, therefore, that the works should have been trans ferred by the Anglo-Mexican Company to its original pro prietors. By her M4esty's ship Fly, the arrival of. which was noticed by us on Saturday, the local director of the Imperial 81-, zilian Mining Company writes word that the Legislature of Rio Janeiro have, by, a large majority, agreed to reduce the duty on the metals produced to 10 per cent. on the value. Formerly the rate payable by this company was 25 per cent., which, even during periods of the greatest success, was found to be a serious draw. back upon the profits of the concern. Looking to the present state of the finances of the Brazilian empire, this must be regarded, on the whole, as a I.beral concession to the English company. Yet something of the sort was to be expected, as the last loan was contracted by the chairman, or one of the principal directors of the Company ( Mr. Goldsmid), and it was at the time distinctly understood ahLt relief was to be afforded of the nature pointed out. Information has been also received that a sum of twenty thousand pounds left for nearly twenty years as a deposit ar guarantee for the faithful discharge of the engagements of the said company towards the Rio Government, is to be refunded. It is not stated whether or not interest will be allowed on this large deposit, but endeavours will not,' we arc told, be spared by the agent abroad, Mr. Duvalle, to obtain it. The workings of the mine continue favourable. The last report gives about 901bs of gold in thirteen days. The price of the shares here has undergone no change, being quoted at 16 to 18 CAPTAINS —Home Keane.

He cocked his gun, and commanded him to stand, or he would blow out his brains. Adrian threw up his hands, and making signs, begged for his life. Cox kept him in this position until Dr. hi'Leod ran down to the river. As soon as Adricu saw him, he jumped out of the flat, and as he could not :swim he began to drown. When he rosa the seenad time, Dr. M'Leod dis charged a double barrel gun at him, about fifteen feet, and missed lini. He however rose no more.

SUltimY it For the last three weeks, Van Amburgh has been nightly drawing crowded houses at this theatre, to wit ness his wonderful performances with his trained ani• mals ; but the enterprising and indefatigable manager not content with " the beasts," he must have " the beauties" also, and accordingly he, last. night, produced a most magnificent and gorgeous spectacle, for the pur pose of introducing 100 female warriors to the notice and admiration of his patrons. The drama in which these ladies are introduced is entitled Jane of the Hatchet ; or, the Women of Beauvais, and is founded on the well-known story, recorded by all the old chroniclers, of the glorious defence of Beauvais in the reign of Louis XL, by Jeanne de la Haelle and the female inhabitants of the city, when these female warriors drove back the best troops of Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, and saving their pity from plunder, acquired for it the proud appellation of Beau vais the Unconquered. The dramatic capabilities of this story have been well developed by Mr. J. T. Haines, the author of the piece, who has inter.vovea into. it a most interesting love story,of which Jacques de Villiers (Mr. E. F. Saville) is the hero. Jane found a most splendid and energetic representative in Mrs. H. Vining, whose acting was, as it always is. most true to nature. 'The ladies were well drilled and trained, and is their gorgeous armour pre sented a most picturesque appearance. The scenery, the whole of which was painted by Mr. Brunning, was most superb, and the whole getting up of the piece re flected the highest credit on all Concerned. It is scarcely necessary to say that it was pre-eminently sue cess.ful—indeed, we believe that the production of r.n unsuccessful piece at this house since Davidge has had the :management of it, is a thing yet to be recorded. We prognosticate a long run to this very magnificent melodraMa. The evening's entertainments concluded with the drama of Afungo Park, in which Van A.ll - as Kaffra, introduced his wonderful performances. Mr. Bernard, the author of this drama, has cleverly managed to introduce the brute-tamer and his pets, so as to snake their performances contribute mate rially to the denouement of the peace, a great improvement upon the dramas which have hitherto been written for the exhibition of the powers of Van Amburgh, in all of which his appearance with his animals has heretofore been a compete hors d'ceztvre. The house was crowded to excess from the commence ment of the performances, in their applause of the whole of which the audience was most enthusiastic. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. (MONDAY EVENING. ) TIM ES. —A private letter from Rio Janeiro, dated the 19th of May, states that the Minister of Finance had mad,: his report to the Legislature, which showed a deficit of 5,000 contos in newt year's ways ar.d means, but no measures were reeernmendcd by which it was to be wet. Hopes were entertained of the settlement of the affairs of Rio Grande. According to the last accounts thence, the Governmsnt troops had beaten the rebels, but the defeat was not considered decisive. Exchange at Rio Janeiro was 304, and the price of the Six per Cent. Local Stock, 76. The Iberia packet from Lisbon, arrived at Falmouth at two o'clock on Saturday morning, when the mail-coach had left half an hour. She arrived at Blackwell at seven o'clock on Sunday evening, and consequently des patches by a private hand, which had been all the way round, were delivered in London twelve hours sooner than the mail letters—a remarkable instance of the pre sent defective arrangements. Had the mail been landed at Southampton, the letters would have been in town twenty-four hours earlier. `.PI.R.IT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. PROM TITS MCItNING PAPERS OP TIIIS DAY. • (From the Morning Chronicle.) Our readers would not fail to notice a paragraph in ycs terday's Chronicle under the head of " The late aristocra tic outrage at Hampton," in which it was stated that the Earl of Waldegrave and a Captain Duff, had been held to bail by Captain"Jelfe Sharp and C. K. Murray, Esq., Magistrates, at Tviickenham, to appear and answer at the next ensuin - 4 Middlesex Sessions, but that, owing to some mistake as to the day on which the Sessions would commence, the recognizances of the defendants and witnesses were made returnable on the Monday week following, whereas the Sessions commenced on the following Monday, a circumstance which was not discovered until the Monday morning, when the witnesses- were summoned together, and despetched to Hieks'a Hal;, Clerkenwell, but on their arrival they were too late, the Gcand Jury having been discharged half an hour. I; is instructive to ob3crye bow admirably, in eases in which rich men are offenders, all sorts of acci dents befriend them. The two Magistrates only held a Peer of the Realm and his friend to bail 'in 100. each, which was very. considerate no doubt. It next h.ir pens, that these Magistrates are unacquainted widi the week on which the Seesions arc held. It night be cu:ious to ascertain whether these Magistrates ever reads a mistake of a we; k in hol e linsi poor men to bail, and and hew providential it was fee Lord Waldegrave and Cop tain Duff that the - ignorance should have occurred so op portunely for them ! Bat it seems the Commissioners cf police, having been baulked of the above two individuals, and having ascertained that two persons who also have titles, were implicated in the outrage, have instructed Mr. Hobler, jun., the solicitor, to proceed with the prosecution of them, regardless of their high rank. We do not sup pose that another mistake will be committed as to the time of holding the Sessions; but we think we may venture to say that it will turn out that,thc individuals against whom justice is about to busy herself, will be able to prove that they weie in another part of England when the outrage was committed. We again repeat,• that when a man of rank in this country chooses to set public opinion at defi• ance, he has nothing to fear from justice. (From the Times.) Why does not the present Regency Bill contain a pro vision disabling, the Regent from giving the • Royal Assent to any Bill for repealing or altering the fifth article of the union with Ireland? Why, by providing only against the repeal or alteration of the English Act of Uniformity and the Scottish Act for securing the Protestant religion, does in proceed upon the basis of a state of things which has totally passed away, ever since Ireland was incorporated into the United Kingdom, and the Church of England merged in the united Church, We suppose the answer will be given, that the same omission was made in the Acts of 1811 and 1830. But it is manifest that in those Acts the clause in question W 3.2 merely copied from the previous Acts of 1751 and 1765, without due consideration of the change of circumstances eff.;cted by the union with Ireland. There was nothing in the prospects of the Church of Ireland at either of those periois which was at all calculated to remind the Legislature that she might practically stand in need of ouch a protection. And in 1830, especially, it was certain that the contem plated Regency, even if it should take t fleet, would not be of long duration. But it is not material to inquire into the causes of any inadvertence which prevented due pre caution from being used on former occasions. The ques tion is rather, whether every constitutional principle which requires the insertion of restrictive, clauses in a Regency Bill for the protection of the Churches of England and Scotland does not require the same restrictions to be ex tended to Ireland also; whether it is not practically as much needed ; whether a precedent is to be established in the frame of Bills of this nature, which, while it for mally recognivs the validity of obligations solemnly con tracted with the Parliaments of England and Scotland while separatekingdoms, refuses to recognize as of like vali dity precisely the same obligations contracted in precisely the same manner with the Parliament of Ireland ? We com mend these matters to the consideration of those whom i may concern. EVENING ED:TION. TRAGIC 0 c Cul.e W 1! 1E IN AMERICA. • ---. (From the New York Morning Herald, Juju: 9.44 ALALA MA, MAY IG.—The murder ci Adelpits Adrien, a gentleman from France, who has hcc , i, re cently passing- thrt.vgh the Uei!ed States, txhiLitlog feats of sleight of hand, beg.g.irs ail dc. , :crip!icr., and is without a parallel in the history of civilized men. - arrived in the city of Montgomery, Alabama, on . the 30th of April, and procured a warehouse for the pur pose of his exhibitons.

He iinini.diately inquired through in- un:xcq:itt!nied terpretcr, for lat:guage, who occupied toe nnuse ; ar,tl Ling informed that I) eter al'Lr(i,l, a gentleman resf)ec!ni):::ty, i;v..d tt.ere, lie, as Of route :' , thought it exie sq.:l:v.l that such conduct illotaid have been exl,ibitcd to Lim trtina the wife of the Dacter, but from every eir._,uitisiance 4Je Lave reason to believe that it TV:IS not long before he learned her character, which had been for ye:l;s procinua to tnne Cif a questionablq nature ; by her nearest reiativea she bad been forsaken, though her husband still ac&u her as his wife ; and it i 3 said, believed her to be shin dared, and free from all e roes. The next day, however, the unfortunate Adrian ro ceived a note from her, which she threw from the be!- cony of her house into the street, and in picking it up he found, in language too strong to be misunderstood, her warm affection fur him, and requesting him to answer it., and giving him directions how to convey it to her. Ho answered it, and this brought about a cor respondence which continued for several days, during which time she wrote to him that she had lost al! affec tion for her husband, and that she had determined to remain with him no longer, and proposed to hire to take her cif. Hs reluctantly consented to do se ; though. , during this whole period, from the affidavit of his in terpreter, he had never been in her presence, but after every arrangement was made, he went to her house alone, and remained - not longer than five minutes. Everything then being in readiness, she was con ducted to the boat, at her request the evening before. They were to start the next morning, but, unfortu nately for the seduced stranger, she had disclosed her designs to a former acquaintance, which led to their detection. From that acquaintance the facts were communicated to her husband. About eight o'clock that evening the alarm was given, ar.d a search was immediately made, but for some time to r,o purpose. Dr. M`Lcod, then, in con nexion with his relations, went to the Montgomery Hall, and inquired for Adrien's room ; they entered it, and broke open his trunk and Mrs. M4leod's, which, it seems, had been sent there. They then left ; shortly after Adrien, with his interpreter, came i n , h av i ng spent the evening at a respectable private house, and finding the trunks open, he suspected that he had boext detected, and iwmediately left for the woods. In his escape he lost his hat. He had scarcely left the house before his pursuers returned, arrested, the interpreter, tied him up to the bed-post, and, with a pistol at his breast, made him divulge the whole secret. They then went to the boat, found her locked up in her berth, fast asleep, and took her out and carried her to her lather's, where she has been closely confined since. Next morninr , they armed themselves, and started. out in search of e Adrien, and after some time they heard of him directing his course towaids Selma, when Dr. M‘Leod, attended by Mr. R. E Cox, a druggist of Montgomery, started after him, and at the river, nine macs from Montgomery, they came up to him under the following circumstances. Just before air.* arrived at the ferry, Dr. M‘Lood fell back, and o,x went up
