We cannot feel surprised at that anxiety. A Pricia One Guinea and One Guinea and a half each, young girl, well educated, and evincing marvel lous courage and self-possession, stood charged with the most atrocious offence provided for by law, and, if convicted, she must have suffered a painful and ignominious death. She was charged with having treacherously administered poison to one to whom but the preceding day she had written in the most endearing terms, whom she had once loved and admitted to all the privileges of a husband. The mystery in which the affair was involved, the doubts that were entertained on every side, worked up the excitement to fever heat, so that the case, which was contested by the ablest members of the profession, promises to re main one of the most prominent among the causes celebres of all civilised nations. The facts lay in a narrow compass. PIERRE EMILS L'Aerommt, a Frenchman employed as clerk or packer in a very respectable house in Glasgow, was fund about 2 o'clock in the morn ing of Monday the 23d of March, suffering under all the symptoms that might attend a violent attack of cholera, or the administration of a large dose of irritant poison. He was so prostrated as to be unable to open the door of his lodgings, al though he had obtained the pass key to admit himself without: disturbing the other residents. For some time he refused medical assistance, but eventually consented to see a medical practitioner. A few hours, however, terminated his career, and subsequent investigations proved, beyond the pos sibility of doubt, that he died from the effects of an enormous dose of arsenic sufficient to have destroyed twenty lives. The important question then arose, by whom had that poison been administered —wa s it a case of suicide, or of wilful and deliberate murder. It could scarcely have been an accident ; the quantity taken, some 180 or 200 grains -4 of which would have been sufficient to destroy life, excluding that supposition. Every clue was, of course, eagerly sought after, and it was discovered that he had been carrying on a correspondence with a young lady, who might have had a motive for removing him. A letter was found in his pocket making an appointment with him for the Saturday evening. This, according to his own statements, had induced him to come back from the Bridge of Allan, where he had been staying for his health, and he had also been seen going in the direction of the residence of the young lady. These were strong circumstances, and, in addition, a voluminous correspondenee was discovered, which proved that the deceased bad seduced this unfortunate young lady, and, in the most heartless and cruel manner, had used the letters she had written, as instruments of coercion, t 3 compel her to continue the illicit intercourse, and to refuse the honourable engagement which had been proffered by a gentleman and a man of honour. No punishment could be too great for the vain glorious and dastardly scoundrel who made such atrocious use of the power he had obtained over one far beyond himself in rank and position. But this, although a matter to excite sympathy in her behalf, could not have justified her conduct if she had really caused his death. Her dreadful fate might have excited commiseration, but the poisoner should be brought to justice, and the majesty of the law fully and completely vindicated. But was she guilty 7 Had she become the execu tioner of her infamous seducer? There were strong grounds of suspicion, but not the proofs that would remove every reasonable doubt, and leave no alternative to conscientious men. It is true that she had purchased poison, but she did so openly, and without disguise, gave her name, and had the fatal drug charged to her father's account ! That did not look like guilt. One who, if guilty, exhibited such extraordinary cunning, would not have been betrayed into so great an oversight. Besides, she had not obtained the poison before the day alluded to in the first count of the indict ment, and ou which a verdict of Not Guilty was therefore very properly returned. She also accounted for her purchase, and it was shown that publications of the highest character— " Blackwood" and " Chambers," had stated that arsenic was used as a cosmetic, and even taken internally. Nay, more, L'ANGELIER himself was proved to have spoken of its use, and to have de clared that he could take it with impunity. It was also shown that she could scarcely have seen him on the Sunday night. She had re mained in company with her young and innocent sister up to half•past 10 o'clock, and then un dressed and gone to bed. It was difficult to sup. pose that she could subaequeittly have met him, prepared, and administered the fatal dose ! It would require an extraordinary degree of credal lity to believe it even possible. He, too, had spoken of suicide, and the right which, as he declared, a man possessed over his own life. It was by no means impossible that having failed to see her, he might in a moment of remorse have taken the drug of which he could easily have obtained possession. His vanity, th e paramount feeling of his mind, was injured, and he might have taken the dose, which was far too large to suppose it could have been given by another, without immediate detection. We yesterday gave the earliest, and, we be lieve an exclusive account of the result, which was appropriated by many of our contemporaries, without the slightest acknowledgement. We this day give the exact verdict. It will be seen that the Lord Justice Cierk fully concurred in the deci sion at which the Jury arrived. They could not have come to any other conclusion. But, as it is, the prospects of the unfortunate young woman's life are blighted, and it might have been happier for her had she been removed from a world that will always look coldly on one who had committed a serious error at the very commencement of her career, and who was suspected of the greatest crime of which a human being can be guilty. GOD help her Whatever might be the real facts of the case, she will require a sustaining power to enable her to endure the terrible consequences of the charges which the Jury truly declared to be "not proven."

It appears that there is a really f r i g htf u l faci lityt t,poisons-altogethersho p, and the of access t o the deadliest apart from th e town-druec ys. is store of the villa ge apot h ecary ! Therecollection of this miserable f ac t we the incidental evi owe t o dance adduced upon th e Sixth Day of th e l ate extraordinary trial of MADELINE Six iTn, upon the charge of Poisoning EMILE L' A.NGELTER. The startling evidence we allude to was given upon oath by JOHN FLEMING, the storekeeper of the Glasgow Printers and Dyers, Messrs. Ton and HIGGINBOTHAM-. Witness observed that it was his duty "to take charge" of dyeing substances used upon this establishment. lie said that one of those dying substances was arsenic; and that of arsenic his employer got upon an average fro'm 3 cwt. to 4 cwt. at a time—obtaining it "in its pure white state" from Messrs. TENNANT and Co. He added to the simple explanatory statement that " it is used in making colour" the absolutely astounding acknowledgement that the arsenic barrels—the barrels containing this deadly poison, to the amount at any one given time of from 3 cwt. to 4 cwt.—are " put among the other things quite open ! The lid is merely laid on 1" The Store keeper adds—" Three men and a boy work along sith me." He says—" From 801 b. to 901 b. is given to the colour-maker at a time :" and further remarks that " he (the colour maker) gets this quantity several times a month." So that the risk is of perpetual recurrence It may be asked " what risk ?" by those who merely glance at the next sentence in the evidence of JOHN FLE3fIN the Glasgow dyer's storekeeper. That sentence tieing simply, "No person gets into the store except those engaged in it"—" those" being " three .nen and a boy," as well as witness himself, le his capacity as Storekeeper. But—mark what follows immediately afterwards I "The Arsenic is taken to the colour-room in open wooden pails !" Remember----in quantities varying "at a time" 'rom 801 b. to 901 b., and that, moreover, "several times a month"—in other words, continually ! the witness further observes—" There ale a great many people employed on the works !" And :ouples with this remark the statement—" should not miss a few ounces at a time !" Now ,his evidence of itself is sufficiently unwelcome and appalling. But note the strikingly corroborative testimony given to that same witness, directly afterwards by ROBERT TOWNSHEND, Manager to his brother, Mr. TOWNSHEND, a Glasgow Manufactur ing -Chemist. Quoth this witness, in his turn— " We have large quantities of arsenic in our premises at a time." Large Quantities ? How •ouch does our reader suppose ? The wit ness himself specifies the amount almost in the same breath—" From one to two tons !" He adds, "It is kept in a private office"—good ! And further, "It stands in casks, one cask being (pen for use." So far good againbopi in re gard to the privacy and in reference to the re striction to " one cask" open for use. BlTT— what are the very next words that fall from the lips of witness ? "We employ from 100 to 140 people. I have no doubt, if so inclined, any of them, might manage to take some away 1" So. It tarns out to he not at all an extraordinary thing for a Printing and Dyeing Firm to have 3 cwt. or 4 cwt. of Arsenic at a time—in a "pure white state"—in barrels " quite open," with the lids " merely laid on"—carried " several times a month" from store-room to colour-room—in quan (Wes varying " from 801 h. to 901b."—in " open wooden pails"—with' " a great many people" employed upon the establishment—and an ad mitted impossibility of " a few ounces at a time" being missed Again—lt proves to be in no way at all surprising to find a manufacturing Chemist not far removed from these Printers and Dyers—having habitually " large quantities 1 arsenic" upon his premises-.." from one to two tons"—standing in casks, one of which casks is invariably open for use—and with from 100 to 140 persons free (any one of them), if so disposed, to purloin it. The brother of the Chemist is the one to make this acknowledgment —we give his words again—"/ have no doubt, if so inclined, any of them, might manage to take some away 1" And all this, while the Legislature is directing its attention exclusively to the endeavour of re stricting the "Sun" of Poisons by Chemists, Druggists, and Apothecaries ! Surely a few additional clauses might judiciously be sup plemented to the " Sale of Poisons' Bill " —now !—at once !—so as to render, henceforth, punishable this frightful exposure of tons of pure arsenic in large and crowded manufacturing esta blishments. Any indifference to this matter would be a Cruelty as well as a Folly on the part of the Legislature. Place restrictions upon the sale of a few grains of arsenic across the counter of an apothecary, and yet leave, at the same time, 3 cwt. or 4 cwt. here, and one or two tons there aceessible to a crowd of artizans—and you render this pretended legislation upon the matter a farce and a delusion. In Heaven's name let us try, let us at last try to place the Watchful Guard of the Law upon Poisons, not merely in Retail—bu also, and surely, in an especial manner in Whole sale ! HER MAJESTY'S STATE BALL.—The Queen gave last evening a State Ball, to which invitations were issued to above 1,900 of the nobility and gentry.

The coal owners of South Yorkshire have determined on making an advance in the price of the Barnsley bed of coal, both "bards," or steam coal, and "softe," which is considered to be an imprudent step, particularly at this time of the year. If the advance had been made in August instead of July there is ev er y pro b ability that it would have been attended with success, but now it is doubtful whether THE METROPOLITAN POLIOE.—A bill, prepared and the advance can be maintained.

The Opinione of Turi❑ states that the present session of the Piedmontese chambers will close next week. Intelligence from Leghorn of the 2d states that the squadron of Admiral Lyons had left that port for the Gulf of Spezzia, where it was to remain three days, and proceed to Toulon. The Echo Agicole publishes the following infor mation respecting the prospects of the Yin age : "The season has been hitherto very favourable to the vineyards, and this year's wine will probably be much superior in quality to that of the last four or five. The oidium has appeared but in few places, and its ravages have been restricted by the use of sulphur. Some surprise is manifested that the price of wine should not have fallen to some extent, but attention is not paid to the fact that many months must elapse before the new wine, how •ver abundant.it may be, can come into the market. No sensible &eine in prices can be hoped for until the cellars of the trade are full, and this is far from being the case at present. Nevertheless, a decline is certain, though good wine will always msintain its price. In the:South the formation of the fruit has passed over with complete success. The , harm said to have been inficied by the recent rains has been greatly exaggerated. Letters from Bayonne state that the vintage will be small in that neigh bourhood in consequence of the limited number of bunches on the vines. At Bordeaux everything pronounces a splendid vintage. At Nautes the rain has done harm, and the proprietors are somewhat alarmed for their vintage." Mr. Abbott, election auditor, examined by Mr. Ser geant Ballantine—Mr. Wilkinson's expenses were re turned up to the day of nomination, at 5221. 163. 10d.

The committee assembled ter the first time this morn ing in No. 17, committee-roor.a ; Mr. Ingham presieed, and the other members of the committee were Sir A. Matheson, Mr. Colville,V r count Bandon, and Major Wortley. Tire netiriety attending the return of Mr. Roupell for the boreingh of Lambeth by so I.rge a I majority drew together a large number of persons to hear the p'roceedings. Great interest was mani fested throughout the day. The petitioners were Messrs. Nieholls and Briscoe, and the allegations in the petition were that the sitting member (Mr. Roupell) had been returned by bribery, treating, and undue influence. The suit was not prayed for by the defeated candidate, Mr. Wilkinson. Mr. James, Q.C., Mr. Sergeant Ballantine, and Mr. Atkinson, appeared for the petitioners. Mr. Slade, Q C.; Mr. Phinn, Q.C., acid Mr. Johnson, appeared for the sitting member. Mr. James, in opening the petitioner's case, said that the allegations against Mr. Roupell were, that he had obtained his return for the borough of Lambeth by a system of bribery, undue influence, and treating. As the allegations involved the right of a large consti tuency, and as the facti to be brought forward were of a novel character, he entreated the earnest attention of the committee to the facts he should lay before them. The constituency embraced a large number of clerks, and working classes, the majority of the latter being in comparatively humble life, and an influence by the most lavish expenditure of money by Mr. Roupell was brough t to bear on the lower orders of voters in this borough who, out of a proportion of 250,000, had the electors power in their hands. In 1852 Mr. Wlleinson was at the, head of the poll, and polled 4,700—a larger number than bad ever been polled before by one candidate in the borough. On the 10th March, 1857, Mr. Wil kinson issued his address, and on the 13th Mr. Ron pell issued his. Mr. Roupell was a gentleman new to the political arena before this election, but he possessed what was of great value in the borough of Lambeth, a large purse, and the influence of a numerous tenantryfif small householders. Several streets of small honees in the borough belonged to him, one of which bore his name. Toe nomination for the borough took place ou Saturday, the 28th of March, and the polling on the Monday following, when Mr. Roupell polled the unprecedented number of 9,300. Mr. Williams, finding during the period before the election that Mr. Roupell wasga,inlng ground, judiciously left Mr. Wilkinson in the lurch, and attached himself to the skirts of Mr. Rou pell's mantle, A more prudent and economical course the bon. member could not have adopted. (Laughter.) Mr. Willi ams polled 7,600, and Mr. Wilkinson 3,230. As soon as Mr. Roupell issued his address to the electors, he commenced a system of bribery, by engaging public houses under the guise of committee rooms, and from 100 to 150 were so engaged as a bribe to the publicans for their votes, who in return were, under the pressure of open houses, to exercise an undue influence (as was done in a number of cases), on the hum bler classes of voters. So numerous were these committee rooms, that two Cr three were to be found in a street in closer proximity than was necessary for the legitimate conduct of the election. In many cases the publicans were also paid chairmen of the committees as well as paid canvassers. The case the learned counsel quoted as an example of the system, and with which he connected Mr. Roupell, was that of the Surrey Canal Tavern, Kent-road, kept by a person named Gillen. About a week before the election Mr. Roupell, accom panied by Mr. Doulton (who acted as chairman of Mr. Roupell's principal committee as well as his chairman at the large gatherings in the borough), and by Mr. Mur phy, clerk to Mr. Roupell's agent, went to this com mittee room, the chairman of the committee being Gillan's father. Mr. Roupell, on seeing Gillan, said to him, " Well, how are yon getting on." Gillan replied " Not so well as I could wish—this is Mr. Wilkinson's strong ground." Mr. Doulton said to Gillen, " Well, what would you recommend to be done." Gillan replied, " Open some more public houses." (Laughter.) Murphy then said, " I'll come down in the course of a day or so, and see which are the next to be opened." Mr. Roupell on that imme diately said, " Open them all, and we shall then he sure of them." (Laughter.) It was a remarkable fact, to be borne in mind in connexion with this conversation, that up to the day of nomination only 42 public-houses had b!en opened, but between Saturday and Monday (the days of nomination and election) they had increased to between 100 and 120. If they were opened before the nomination, Mr. Roupell was in this diffi culty, that in returning the number of public houses to the election auditor, his agent, by returning only 42 had made a false return under the Act of Parliament, and the payments beyond that were illegal. In addition to the public houses and paid chambers of committee, 200 paid committeemen were appointed, and from 300 - to 350 paid non-electors as canvassers, and the committee were called on for the first time to decide the legality of the latter appointment. The fourteen days' expenses up to the day of nomination were—For Mr. Wilkinson, 5221. ; for Mr. Williams, 7531. 18s. 3d., and for Mr. Roupell, 2,6101. 17s. That charge gave them an insight into Mr. Roupell's lavish expenditure, for out of it,' 1,1551. 14s. 3d. was paid for public-houses as committee-rooms, but to whom no mention was made, which was a viola- Mon of the Act of Parliament, and of itself invalidate I the election. During the election the borough presented a kind of saturnalia, flags, banners, omnibuses, and such like met. the eye at every corner, and it was with difficulty persons could pass up and down the streets. The expenses of the election after the nomination had not been furnished by Mr. Roupell, as required by the terms of the act of Parliament. The usual formal notices of the issue of the writ and the return of Mr. Roupell, as member of Parliament for the borough of Lambeth, were put in and Few% Mr Onslow, the returning officer, stated there were 20,276 voters in the borudgh, which extended over an area of 10 miles. To his knowledge the election was MA RL BO ROUGH-STRE ET. CLIIIICLTY TO A HORSE. —John Carter, cab driver, and owner of badge 10,129, was charged, before Air. Bing ham, at the instance of the Rlyal Society for the Pre vention of Cruelty to Animals, with crueFy id-using a horse, in Park-lane. The prisoner, who was summoned a few days ago, and who was in the service of Mr. Nash, an extensive cabs proprietor, in the parish of St. Marylebone, did not ap pear to it, when he was apprehended by Love, an active' and intelligent officer of the s Mr. J. Grea;bead, No. 134, Piccadiry, said that, on. the 25th of June, he was in Park-lane, when he saw the: defendant there driving a one horse cab at a very furious• rate. He was lashing the animal in a violent manner with his whip. Love said that he had examined the horse after the treatment it had received from the prisoner. He found between 40 and 50 marks upo❑ it, the effect of the lash ing it had received. Toe animal was in a very weak condition. The prisoner said that the animal was not able to go, and that in ordtr to 'age it to proceed he was compelled to use the whip. The horse would not go at a speed of mon. than four miles an hour. Mr. Grear.head observed that when he saw the horse in Park-lane it was going at a greater speed than four mile- , an hour. Mr. Nash, who appeared the previous day, as the driver did not attend when the warrant was ordered to be issued, stated that his father had discharged the Pri soner in consequence of the ill treatment that bad heel mentioned. conducted with the utmost propriety and credit ; no complaints were made to him when he visited the poll ing booths from time to time during the day of elec tion. Mr. Bingham made some strong remarks on the up' feeling conduct of the prisoner, who was fined 245., c osts includtd, of 14 days imprisonment. The fine was paid. SOUTH WARK. WATCH ROBBERY.—James Mahoney, a ticket-of-100 1 e man, was placed at the bar, charged with stealing' watch from Mr. Trotman. From the evidence it appeared that the prosecirtor was standing opposite the Town-hall, when the prisoi.nsf snatched the watch from his waistc.,at pocket. He was sentenced to six months' imprisonment. I'be magistrate remarking if it was true that he was a ticket of-leave man, the Government could then detain hint if they thought proper.

Wotton, arrived in Cowes-roads this morn ing at 10 o'clock, with the mails and advicei from New York to the 27th ult., being three days' later than those to hand previously. She left New York at 12 o'clock at noon on the 27th, making the pas sage (mean time) in 11 days 16 hours and a-half. On freight she brings $153,162 for England, and $479,000 for France. • A telegraphic despatch, received at New York just before the Fulton sailed, says— " The steamer Montreal was burnt yesterday near Quebec. Two hundred persons were burnt or drowned, mostly Scotch emigrants." A despatch from Boston, dated the 25th ult., says— "The New Hampshire Legislature to-day passed resolutions denunciatory of the Dred Scott decision, and in the house this afternoon the Negro Disa bility Clause was expunged from the Militia Bill." Two hundred and fifty United States' troops were to leave New York on the 29th ult. for Utah, to join other troops sent from other sub-stations throughout the country, all of which would form three regiments, two of infantry and one of cavalry, numbering about 2,500 men. They are to rendez vous at Leavenworth, Kansas, where they will be placed under the command of the new Governor of Utah. The sales of cotton at New York on the 26th were checked by the high views of holders, and were con fined to about 500 or GOO bales, based upon mid dling uplands at 141 c., and New Orleans ditto, at 141 c. Flour was in fair demand. The complexion of the money-market was not at alt sa ti s f ac t ory. The demand was more active, and the rates tended up ward. MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.) CORN EXCHANGE. Some of Monday's unsold samples of English wheat were on offer to-day, but, as the fresh arrivals have been limited, the stands were by no means extensively supplied. The attendance of both town and country millers was small, and the demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce was in a very sluggish state, at Monday's currency. Foreign wheat—the imports of which are 7,820 quarters —was very dull, but no quotable change took place in its value. Barley and malt were in fair request, and prices were supported. _ The supply of oats was very moderate. Both .English and foreign qualities changed hands steadily, at very full prices. Both beans and peas moved off steadily, at fully late rates. There was very little business transacted in flour, al Monday's decline in value. E aglish Irish Wheat 1,910 ARRIVALS TUTS WEEK. Barley.
