tile line, and contended that the London and North- Western Railway Company had no locus standi in opposition to the preamble of the Bill. Mr. WHEELER, on behalf of the London and North- Western Company, maintained that that company had a right to oppose the Bill, as it would be prejudicial to their interests, was unnecessary and uncalled for, and would be injurious to the interests of the public. After some discussion, it was eventually decided that the London and North .Western Company had no locus standi in o pposition to the preamble. Evidence was then adduced on behalf of the promoters of the line, and, after the examination of several witnesses to , show the traffic which might be expected, that the engineer ing works were practicable, and that the estimates were sufficient for its construction, the room, was, cleared, and on our re-admission, The CHAIRMAN announced the DECISION, "That the preamble of the Bill was proved." Some of the clauses were then agreed to, and the Commit tee adjourned tilt Frivay next. GROUP XXVI. This Committee resumed this morning the consideration of the merits of the NORTH STAITORDOHIRE (OHM/NET VAL— LEY MINE AND TRENT VALLEY ZUNC TION). DECISION. Mr. Ricardo, was examined, and deposed to the great advantage which would result from the construction of the proposed line. He stated that it would give a through passage traffic from Manchester to London, and avoid the Potterie, by which two miles would be saved, and thus leave those crowded districts for the goods traffic. Mr. Bidder, C.E., was next examined, and stated that the engineering difficulties were of the usual character, and pre sented no insuperable obstacles. After the examinatio❑ of several other witnesses, The Committee declared that the preamble of this Bill was not proved. The Committee then adjourned till twelve o'clock t o . morrow. GROUP XXVII.

Earl Fitzwilliam gave general evidence i❑ favour of this scheme. A number of other witnesses from the locality of the lines bore tes:imony to the great benefit the adoption of the scheme would confer on the trade and commerce of the district through which the several lines would pass, and to the importance which the population of those districts attached to the various railways being placed under one management. The whole of the day was occupied with this description of . evidence. GROUP XXXIV. GROUP XXXV. GROUP XXXLY. This Committee met at the usual hour this morning; Lord Charles Wellesley in the chair. TORE AND NEWCASTLE (HARTLEPOOL DOCIL AND IZAILIXTAir PUNCNASE). The Committee were occupied the whole of the day with this case. The Bill was fur transferring the Hartlepool Junction Railway and the Docks at Hartlepool to the Youle and Newcastle Railway Company, in consideration of the stun of 35,0001. The case was opposed by the Hartlepool West Dock and Harbour Company. The Committee adjourned until to-morrow.

Several clauses of the Caledonian and Dumbartonshire Junction ( Deviations, &c.) were brought up and.agreed to. GLASGOW, AIRDRIZ, AND nroarssauga JUNCTION (COWS...BMM ZIR.A.ZirClit). This Bill was next proceeded with. Mr. AUSTIN opened the case for the promoters. He stated that the branch in question was only 2 miles long, but its pi-, eat importance consisted in connectin g th e Edi n b urgh and Glasgow line With the present scheme, and granting the for mer company access to the large station to be constructed in the college grounds. Mr. Ewing, a director of the Edinburgh and Glasgow, and Caledonian and Dumbarton, gave general evidence in favour of the proposed branch, as opening up good station roam for the former railway. A question was here raised about the locus atandi of Mr. Forsyth appearing for the Monkland mineral lines. A discussion ensued, which resulted in the Committee deciding against the appearance of Mr. Forsyth. Mr. Thomas Leadbetter, Mr. Nelson, and Mr. Paterson, of Glasgow, gave evidence as to the accommodation the pro posed branch would give to the cattle and mineral traffic of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway. Mr. Adze, the engineer of the line, was examined as to the works on the line. They presentei no engineering difficulty, the heaviest gradient being lin 90. Tnu cost was estimated at 71,5004 The Committee adjourned till to-morrow at twelve o'clock. COMMITTEES on PRIVATE BILLS.

THE INSTRUMENTAL VOCALISTS Yesterday aiiprnuon we visited the llaymarket Theatre, and witnessed the remarkable perform tnce of four Hungarian brothers, who have recently arrived in the metropolis. Auger, the greatest of French com posers, has heard them, Berlioz has heard them, his Majesty Louis Philippe has heard them, so has our gracious Sovereign queen Victoria, and so also have thousands in Germaiy, France, Holland, Belgium, and various otheu. parts of the continent. Every one has been amazed, every one has been enraptured; and we can now mention ourselves as among the number. It is utterly impossible to convey any notion whatever of the etfpct of these singular artistes by a mere description, even though we wrote as vividly as Buffon. They are Hungarians by race, broth, ra by blood, and gifted to an almost miraculous extent by nature. Their names are Weis, Z firer, Schwartz, and Grunzwaff. Two of these extraordinary men are , of imitating h the horn, the hautboy, the trumpet, capable ~ ~ . Tiolinceito. theh cornet-a-piston, the violin, and the , n, s , vit their lips alone.

Th: nationality of the Hungarians distinguishes in a'peculiar manner the performance of these brothers ; and their picturesque anpearance on the stage of the little Hay market, dressed as chasseurs, completes the illusion that we are listening to the bugles and the songs of huntsmen in a northern forest.

MEXICO, Arnim I.—The revolution which was pro claimed here by the National Guard on the 27th of February h a d, i n th e ,fi rst i nstance , ver y extensive ob jects. They demanded a new Congress, and fresh elec tions of president and vi ce -president ; Gomez -Ferias, who held the latter office, to be immediately removed, and the executive power to be confided provisionally to Senor Pena y Pena. Towards Santa Anna the dislike of the Moderado party, who attempted the revolution, is quite as great as to Gomez Ferias, and their f ears much greater, but they considered him to be engaged in a hopeless expedition against the Ame r i cans i n Saltillo, from which he might possibly never return, and they therefore treated his claim to the Presidency with little ceremony, leaving him simply the title of Commander-in-Chief of the army. Santa Anna's ingenuity in converting his repulse at the Angostura into a victory soon convinced the Pronunciados, however, that he was not to be thus easily disposed of, and, as the Congress showed no disposition to dissolve itself at their bidding, while the regular troops under Rangel remained faithful to the Government, they found it prudent to lower their tone and, remodelling their plan, announced as its sole object the deposition of Gomez Ferias. Santa Anna, on his m arch to Sa n L u i s P otos i (to which place he found it necessary to retreat after the battle of the Angostura), received intelligence of these disturb ances, and fully compre he n di ng the i r tendency as affecting himself, wrote in the strongest terms to Gomez Ferias, exhorting him to hold out until troops, which Santa Anna promised to dispatch immediately to his assistance, should arrive here. He protested, further, that if the insurgents were not punished in the most exemplary maneer, he would himself leave the country, considering it no longer habitable if the laws could be violated with impunity. There is some thing ludicrous in this language from a man whose whole life has been a series 01 insurrections, and the Pronunciados, estimating it at its proper worth, lost no time in communicating to him their modified plan, backed by those arguments to which he is known to be most open. The effect was immediately perceptible in a fresh series of communications from him, to the Government in cool, and to the Pronunciados in very friendly terms. Com plying with the invitation of Congress, he announced his intention to assume the Presidency, by which the obnoxious individual (Gomez Ferries) would be legally got rid of, and directed that hostilities should cease until his arrival. Many and anxious were the delibe rations of Gomez Farias, and his party the ultra de mocrats, or, as they are now termed Puros, on the re ceipt of this unexpected intelligence; but they had no alternative but submission, as their military supporters acknowledged no orders except Santa Anna's. The young eentlereen of the National Guard, called by the mob "Polkas" with (reference to a well known dance, not to the President of the United States), on the other hand, were highly elated. Both parties mainta in ed their position, and though the streets continued barricaded, and business of every kind suspended, the firing ceased until Santa Anna arrived at Guadeloupe on the 22d ult., and, having taken the oath as President before a com mittee deputed by Congress to wait on him, made his entry into this city and established himself at the Palace as the head of the G overnment. Thus the dissensions of Moderados and Puros (the Conservatives and Radicals of Mexico) have termi nated for the present in the elevation of an indi vidual towards whom both parties entertain feelings of dislike and distrust ; and it is one great proof of Santa Anna' s super i or energy that, in spite of those feelings, his p resence se ld om f a i ls to produce submis sion. The clergy, whose money and influence con tributed largely to the recent change, have obtained from Santa Anna the repeal of the late law for the sale of church property. The church must, however, suffer. Santa Anna has obtained from Congress authority to raise 20,000,000 of dollars, and from no other source than the ecclesiastical coffers can any efficient aid be obtained. Forced loans are proscribed as dangerous and ineffi cacious ; taxes are slow in operation, and tend to ex asperate the classes on whom the pressure of the war chiefly falls ; M ex i can cre di t i n f ore i gn countries is a jest. The clergy must, therefore, consent to sacrifice a portion of their property ; and this conceded, the ques tion becomes merely an arithmetic : al one, Santa Anna endeavouring to extract as much, and the reverend body to give as little as possible. Changes of Ministry have become so common here, as to be scarcely worth record ing. Latterly, Gomez Farias could find no one to accept those appointments, and was obliged to dispense with the assistance of a Cabinet. Santa Anna has, however, succeeded in forming a Ministry of rather a respectable character. The War Depart ment is given to General Ignacio Gutierrez, that of Foreign Affairs to Senor Baranaa, Justice to Senor Suarez Iriarte (a remnant of the Puros party), and Finance to Don Juan Rondero. The last appoint ment is the only one which will excite any interest in England. In peaceable times I should consider it favourable to the bondholders. Senor Rondero has never before been in office, but few men here are more deeply versed in the abstruse mysteries of Mexican finance. Originally a military man, he retains few traces of that profession, and has long been closely con nected with the moneyed interest, which he may be con sidered as representing in the present Cabinet. For a Mexican, he is unusually sensitive on the subject of credit, and .n the whole I do not think Santa Anna could have made a better selection. A note of woe is heard from Vera Cruz. That city, styled " the heroic," as well as the strong castle of San Juan de Ulloa, are said to have fallen into the hands of the Americans, after a few days' bombardment by General Scott. As yet it is difficult to learn here any particulars of the surrender, but the public dejection is evidently very great. The forces of General Scott arrived late in the season on the coast. The deadly scourge of the vomito appears generally in the present month; and he has now not a moment to lose in pushing his way to Jalapa, which he will perhaps not do without opposition. Peurto Nacional and Plan del Rio have to be passed, and both present natural obsta cles to the march of an army. The - former has some forti fications, which have been thought impregnable by the Mexicans, but fatal experience has shown that they are not likely to prove so to the Americans. Attacking or attacked, the Mexicans seem fated to be defeated. The battle of the Angostura was fought chiefly by American} volunteers, who are described in a letter from Saltillo as a most undisciplined rabble ; yet Santa Anna, at the head of his chosen troops, much more than double their number, was compelled to re treat before them. Already some indications of what is likely to occur have been shown at Santa Fe, near Vera Cruz, where General Romulo de la Vaya at tempted an attack on an American outpost, and was immediately abandoned by his troops. This officer has acquired an inconvenient sort of reputation iby his con duct at Resaca de Guerrero, where he allowed himself to be made a prisoner, instead of running away, like the rest, for which Congress voted him a gold medal, and the most extravagant expections are entertained of his future exploits. Santa Anna has obtained per mission from Congress to resume the command of the army, and now goes to undertake the most dan gerous of his campaigns. Of the 25,000 men as sembled at San Luis Potosi previous to the battle of the Angostura, probably not more than half are now in the ranks, and a part of those must be left to garrison San Luis. With national guards, militia, and volunteers, Santa Anna may be able to oppose about 15,000 men to General Scott, in the neighbourhood of Jalapa. Notwithstanding the di s lik e w hi c h Mexicans entertain . toss ards all f ore i gners, and the tenacity with which every offer of peace from the Americans has been rejected, there is little show of war like enthusiasm here. Every Mexican, indeed, asserts that the war must be continued ; but few are inclined to take any personal share in the contest, and still fewer to contribute to its expen ses . A party, too, exists who desire the subjugation of the country, not from any love to a foreign yoke, but from disgust at their own internal dissensions, and a convic tion of the impossibility of their establishing a perma nent Government amongst themselves. This party, under the mask of patriotism, will continue to augment the obstacles to peace, in order that the Americans may be forced to convert their invasion into a conquest. In the northern provinces the war has already taken the latter form. The capital of the State of Chihuahua has been eocupied by eight hundred Ameri can. They were met (I cannot say opposed) by at least 3,000 Mexicans, who abandoned the field en receiving one volley of artillery. This little band of ad venturers is now threatening the populous capital of Durango. A strong American squadron has arrived at Acapulco, and there can be no doubt that all the Mexi can ports on the Pacific will fall, like these on the At lantic, into the hands of the United States. Santa Anna has been authorised by Congress to name a deputy-president during his absence, in order to ex. elude Gomez Ferias from a return to power.—Times. A PROMISING YOUTH. . We find the following statement in the Droit :—"A f youth, named Alfred, not yet sixteen, belonging to an . honest family of working people, having received some little education, and calling himself a clerk, was arrested , on Friday under the following circumstances :—During some time, Alfred has been alone at Paris, in conse quence of his father being on a journey. Free from paternal authority, he plunged into pleasure, and in curred excessive expenses. His disorderly conduct brought down upon him the reproaches of his relatives, but he took no notice of them, and quitted his father's house, saying he would not receive advice from anybody, and that he knew how to create resources to live inde pendently. A little while after, Alfred had occasion to go to the house of an English doctor named Edmonds, residing in the Rue Vieille-du-Temple, who during fif teen years had attended his family. In his visits to Dr. Edmonds, Alfred was much struck at the rich furniture, and concluded that the doctor must possess money and valuables. He according resolved to rob him, and in order to carry his design into effect studied the doctor's habits. Having observed that Dr. Edmonds frequently absented himself, he procured a key to open his apart ment, and made preparations for effecting a robbery. On thinking further on the matter, he came to the con clusion that if he murdered the Doctor, and then robbed him, the chances of discovery would be fewer. He ac cordingly determined to murder him, and for that pur pose procured a large awl, which he sharpened. Fearing, however, that his energy might fail at the fatal moment, he resolved to obtain an assistant. Ile, therefore, went on Thursday night to the well-known establishment of Paul Niquet, which is frequented by thieves and outcasts, among whom he hoped to find some one to aid him in carrying out his abominable designs. In the smoky tapis franc, he soon remarked a man of about 40, covered with rags, without shoes, with a long and dirty beard, and his whole appear ance betokening suffering and misery. He accosted him, and asked what he did at Paris. The man replied that not being able to obtain work at Bordeaux he had come to Paris to seek it. " Work !" cried Alfred, " don't think of it ; you will not find occupation anywhere, and if you did you would not earn sufficient to live on. If you like I will procure you resources ; yes, I will make you have money, and that without fatigue !" And there upon Alfred went on to speak of the wealth of the doctor, end of the good stroke that it would be to murder him. house,do the a and job, would sai d givet a t him one-fourth of all that he might be able to steal. he would proposed wudin introduce heeishim compani o nin into Strangulation was the means he first proposed, and he particularly recommended to the man to take care not to allow the victim to utter cries. He promised to dress hie accomplice in new clothes, in order that he might enter the house without suspicion, and he spoke of the murder as the most simple and natural thing in the world. The stranger appeared to accept his proposition, but said that it would be difficult to strangle the doctor without his crying out. Alfred thereupon drew his large awl from his pocket, and showed the other how he might kill a man with it at one blow. The stranger made no further observations, and a bargain was duly made, and confirmed by a good supper. The next merning Alfred led his accomplice to a barber's, and then left him to seek some clothes for him. When alone the poor wretch became so frightened at the hor rible projects of the lad, that he hasted to the Marche des Innocens, and communicated them to some sergens de ville, who took him the commissaire de police of the quarter, to whom he told the same tale. Measures were immediately taken to arrest Alfred, and whew he appeared with his clothes at the appointed place he was captured. The instrument with which he had proposed to kill Dr. Edmonds was found upon him, as was also the key with which he intended to open the doctor's door. The examination to which he was subjected was not long. He, however, made the most complete con fession, and detailed all the circumstances here related with extraordinary sang froid. He manifested not the slightest remorse, but exposed his criminal plans as it they were perfectly reguiar. He has a mild and agree able expression of countenance, and appears to possess a well developed intelligence. He has been sent to the prison of the prefecture of police. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSIIIOUTIT, MONDAY.—The Swedish corvette which arrived yesterday proved to be the Najaden, of 16 guns, com manded by Captain Ehrenstam, K.S. last from Cadiz. Sh e yesterday saluted the flag on the King's Bastion with 21 guns, which was returned by the Lieutenant -Governor of the garrison (Lord Frederick Fitzclarence, G.C.H.) with a like number. This morning she saluted the Commander-in-Chief with 17 guns, which was acknowledged by the St. Vincent (flag ship), Captain Milne, with the same number. Captain Ehrenstam has charge of a number of young Swedish gen tlemen, whom he is educating practically for service in the Swedish royal navy; observation and instruction, therefore, is the object of the vessel's anchoring in our port. She saluted also yesterday the Swedish Ties-Consal at this port, AL Van denbergh, who has this morning introduced the Captain and his staff to Sir Charles Ogle, and conducted them over the dockyard, and afterwards presented them to Lord Frederick Fitzclarence, the Governor, who received them with his usual urbanity, and invited .them to an inspection of that gallant regiment the 43d Light Infantry, under command of Lieu tenant Forlong, K.H., which took place on Southsea- common, , at 4 o'clock this afternoon. To-morrow the Swedish officers and Vice - -Consul dine with the C ommander-in-Chief. Prince Oscar is daily expected in the Eugenie frigate, accompanied by the brig Nordenskold. The Najaden is ordered to await their arrival. Sir Cherie Oglehas deputed M. Vandenbergh to invite the Prince (who is the third son of the King of Sweden) on his arrival to make the Admiralty -house his home during his sojourn at this port. The bachelor officers of the navy and army in commission at this port are getting up a superb ball and banquet, which will take place at the King's-rooms a few evenings hence. The Recruit, 12, Commander Slade, was towed out of harbour this morning at half past five o'clock by the Geyser steam-sloop, and the wind being light and baffling. the steamer did not cast her off until she got outside the Nab, when she made sail with a light southerly wind for Plymouth: The Avenger steam-frigate, Captain Dacres, is having her paddle-box boats, which have hitherto been carried in amidships on deck, fitted to the paddle-boxes in the usua way. We are glad to recognise an evidence of the Admi ralty's orders with regard to this all-important matter being enforced, so that ships may not again be sent to sea without the means of providing for the safety of those on board, a, has been the case in too many instances hitherto. The fac is deposed to by the officers of the late Thunderbolt that but for the reliance which was placed in her paddle box boats when she was wrecked, the loss of life would have been awful. The Geyser steam-sloop, Commander Brown, is ordered to be employed for the present as a steam-transport, in lieu o' the Dee, which vessel is to have new boilers, and to be thoroughly overhauled and repaired at Woolwich. Commander Robert Jones (1844) died at Southsea on Friday last. Commander Jones was the only lieutenant on board the Victory at the time the Queen unexpectedly I visited that ship in this harbour, by which casualty h e o b. tained his promotio n after holding the commission of lieutenant upwards of 32 years. He has not been employee as a commander, and has left five motherless boys without a farthing in the world to provide for them, and they art to'ally unable to provide for themselves, the eldest being onlj 13 years of age. MAY Il.—The Centaur steam-frigate returned from Ireland this morning, and came into harbour to coal prior to refitting for other service. The Daring, 12, Commander Peel, was about to proceed from Vera Cruz to Halifax by the latest advices. The Spiteful steam-sloop, Commander Sir W. Hoste, Bart., was at Colombo on the 21st of March, on her way home. The Frolic, 16, commander Hamilton, arrived at Val paraiso on the 28th of January from Mazatlan, and sailee on the 10th of February for Rio and England with freight. The Cormorant steam-sloop, Commander Gordon, arrived at Valparaiso from Callao on the Ist of February. The Carysfort, 26, Captain Seymeur, arrived at Callao on • the 19th of February from Valparaiso, and sailed on the 21st for Mexico. The Nimrod, 20, Commander Dacres, sailed from Simon', Bay, Cape of Good Hope, for Algoa Bay, on the II th of March; the Snake, 16, Commander Brown, sailed the same day for the alozambique Channel, and the Eurydice, 26 Captain Anson, same day for Mauritius. ROYAL MARINES. The following promotions and appointments in the corps of the Royal Marines have just taken place : First. Lieutenants Henry Carr Tate and George C. Langley, to be Captains, and attached to the Artillery companies. First-Lieutenant Joseph Edward Wilson Lawrence, Acting Adjutant of the Artillery companies, to be established Adju tant of those companies. CHATHAM . , MAY IL—The Charon steam•vessel left this port at ten o'clock yesterday morning with the officers from the Pay Clerk's-office at this dockyard, and paid off the Star 6-gun brig, Acting Commander Selwin, at Sheerness. The Howe, 120 guns, Captain Sir James Stirling, commis sioned on Thursday last, at Sheerness, is to have a comple ment of 800 men. She is to be fitted so that she may be at Portsmouth on the Ist of June next. Commander Hector Loring is appointed to this ship. The Marlborough ordnance gunboat is loading with stores and condemned guns. She also takes on board 250 bedsteads for the service of the hospital of the Royal Artillery at Wool wich, and will sail on Wednesday next. The Wolverine, 16 guns, Commander John Hay, was paid off at ten o'clock this morning. THE LATE FATAL FIGHT AT HEADLESS CROSS. It will be in the recollection of our readers that OR Easter Monday a drunken fight took place near the White Hart Inn, at Headless Cross, between a shoe maker, named Thomas Robinson, and a needlemaker, named Richard Boulton, in which the latter received a blow which knocked him down, and that he died next day from its effects, as was suspected, although the Coroner's jury returned a verdict to the effect that he died in a fit of apoplexy, caused by exer tion and excessive drinking. The widow of Boul ton appears to have been rather dubious as to the accu racy of this verdict, from certain circumstances which bad since transpired ; and she accordingly ap plied to Mr. Gray, magistrate of Alcester, who ordered her to attend at the Petty Sessions, on Monday last, at that place. After hearing the woman's state ment, he ordered warrants to be issued for the apprehen sion of William Robinson, as principal, and William Harris, Matthias Pool, David Hill, and William Shirley, as being eiders and abettors in the fight. Robinson, Shirley, and Hill, were apprehended the same night by Munsloo and Spooner, the Alcester officers; Harris was apprehended on the following day by the Ipsley officer; and Pool gave himself up to Mr. Munsloo. On Wednes day they were brought up before Mr. Gray, and in the course of the hearing a.man named Richard Stanley having been implicated, be was put into the dock along with the other prisoners. From the evidence now brought for ward the affair seems to have been one of the most dis graceful kind; for it appears that before the fight com menced Robinson said to diseased that if they did turn out to fight, he (deceased) should never come in alive. Before the commencement of the last round, having fought for about an hour and a half, one of the bystand ers, now in custody, said to: Robinson, " Hit him under the ear, and that will finish the —," and accordingly, on the standing up to fight, Robinson, after saying to the diseased, " This will be the last round, for I mean to finish you," struck him a violent blow just under the ear. The unfortunate deceased instantly dropped down, his mouth filled with blood, and be never stirred or spoke until the following, when he died. At the con clusion of the hearing, which lasted about six hours, the whole of the prisoners were committed for trial at the next Warwick assizes. Pool, Hill, Shirley, and Stanley were admitted to bail, themselves in lOU, and two sure ties of 501.; but bail was refused for Robinson and Harris, in consequence of the evidence adduced above.—Birming ham Journal. CHARGE OF POISONING. (From the Devonport Independent.) It is with considerable regret that we have to detail he particulars of a most determined and but too sucess 'ul attempt at poisoning, which was made on Thursday morning last, at a beer-shop in Pembroke -street, known by the sign of the Victory of China. Fortunately we have in this neighbourhood been spared the excitement and ,the pain which such transactions occasion, and when our columns bad contained the revolting particu lars of the endeavours of one party against the lives of others, other places have been the scene, and we have joined, to the natural feelings those particulars have produced, some congratulation that at least this locality , had not attained a disagreeable notoriety, by the perpe tration within it of such crimes. It appears that a young man, named Henry Humphrey Gilbert, a clerk in her Majesty's navy (whose father is a messenger in the Admiral Superintendant's office), had visited the beer shop referred to, and had remained in company with one of the depraved but unfortunate creatures who spend their miserable lives at the various houses of resort in that neighbourhood. On Wednesday night he slept there with a girl named Ellen Mc. Mean, and on the following morning they came into the tap room of the house, and there saw a man named Joseph Pedler. This man had entered the house on the pre ceding evening, and asked for a bed to himself. This he obtained, and on rising in the morning he came into the taproom. Pedler, whose connexions are respectable, has been a sick-bay man on board her Majesty's ship Queen; he previously belonged to her Majesty's steamer Bulldog, and some months since he was convicted betore I Captain Foote and J. Ingle, E sq ., a t S tone h ouse , o f b e i ng concerned in an extensive smuggling affair. We do not say this with the view of raising any prejudice against the man, but as a simple fact, for there can be nothing, in a man's once b e i ng a smugg l er lik e l y to create a sus picion against him in reference to such a serious charge as the present. In the taproom with the deceased were one or two other parties, and Pedler sent one of the girls who was by his side out on an errand, and he was then seen to put a white powder into a glass of porter, and going over to Mc. Mean, he said " Drink." Another girl, who saw this, warned her not to drink it, as a white powder was in the glass. Mc. Mean then spat out out what she had drunk, and threw the remainder of the glass of porter under the grate. She then observed a white substance adhering to the glass. Subsequently porter was offered by Pedler to the unfortunate young man Gilbert, and he drank three or four glasses. Porter was also offered to a girl named Kesiah Cook, and she drank some. Within a short time they both became ill. Gilbert was sick and drowsy, and exhibited the ordinary symptoms of being poisoned by a narcotic drug. Cook complained of sick ness and pains in the abdomen. All was confusion in the house, and the landlady charged Pedler with having put something into the porter. This he denied, and afterwards left the house. Mr. C. Tripe was summoned to attend Gilbert and the girl, and Mr. Laity and Mr. Little, surgeons, subsequently came in. Every means that medicall skill could devise to restore the unfortunate man was resorted to without effect. Within a short time he expired; and the woman, still suffering, was conveyed to th e wor kh ouse . Sh e h a d ev id en tly h a d a good dose, and required the continued attention of Messrs. Little and Laity. On Friday she was consider ably better. The man Pedler was everywhere sought after by the police, who thought he was more likely to he found out of the town than within it. Ile was, bower( r, taken by some waterrnen (who had been told his " de scriptions," and who are entitled to credit for aiding the police) in Queen street, on Thursday, and brought to the station-house. The inquest was hell on Frirlay, before A. B. Hone, Esq., the coroner for the Devonport district, which, afti r the examination of several witnesses, was adjourned to Thursday next, in order to afford time for the analysis of the contents of the stomach of the deceased. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, MAY 11.—Since Friday there has been no improvement whatever in the state of our mar ket. Both spinners and manufacturers show a disposi tion to accept lower prices than they were asking last week ; but buyers are not to be tempted by any concession in prices to enter into operations of magnitude, and confino themselves entirely to such purchases as are necessary for the supply of immediate wants. The amount of business done is consequently quite insignificant. We hear that reductions of wages are taking place in some parts of the neighbourhood, but have not been able to collect any precise information on the subject. The hands of the three mills which stopped last week, in consequence of a proposed reduction, continue out. ROCHDALE, MAT 10.—There has been very little business done to• day in flannels, very few buyers hav ing attended, and pieces are very low. In wool there is little doing, and prices stationary. lirni a ISFIELD, MAY 11. —Our market continues in a very depressed state, and but few sales have been effected.

(Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Westminster, before the Loan CHIEF BARON and Special Juries.) TRH ATTORNEY -GENERAL V. AVERY, SENIOR.. This was an information filed by the Attorney-General, at the instance of the Board of Customs, against the defendant, charging him with having received a quantity of sugar out of bond without payment of duty. The Attorney-General, the Solicitor. General, Mr. Watson. and Mr. Wild; were counsel for the Crown; Mr. Martin and another learned gentleman for the defendant. The transaction which formed the subject of this informa tion arose out of the importation of sugar from Madras by the Lady Flora, described already in the case of the "At torney-General v. Howe," a large quantity of which it was alleged that the defendant, who is in business in Mincing lane as a sugar-broker, had purchased duty off, and sold duty on, to a person by whom it was passed into home con sumption through a grocer at Banbury. The defence was, that the duty had been paid, and that the discrepancies charged on the part of the Crown were to be accounted for by an examination of a number of books put i n on hi s part. The ArrovrEr-GENERAL replied, submitting to the jury that the case set up by the defendant was a flim s y an d clumsy answer to the charges in the information. The Learned CHIEF BAJION having s umme d up, The jury returned a verdict for the Crown for 651. 12s.— single value. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, May 12. (Sittings at Nisi Prius.) The Court was occupied the whole day in hearing a case of no public importance. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT, (Before Baron ALDEISON.) FORGEAY.—On the application of Mr. Ballantine, th e case of Edmund Garbett, who was indicted for forgery, was post poned till next Saturday. FORGERY.—Nicholas Aerp, a tailor, Alfred Williams, alias Brown, a painter, and Joseph Ale xan d er, a la b ourer, who were remanded from last session, were indicted for forgery. Mr. CLARttsox conducted the case for the prosecution, and the prisoners were defended by Messrs. Ballantine and Parry. The facts appear from the following evidence:— Mr. Harley, of St. Thomas's-square, Hackney, deposed that he kept an account at Messrs. Fuller's, the bankers, and that he had not authorised the drawing of a bill on that bank for the sum of 500/. Mr. Baker, clerk in the bank of Messrs. Fuller, deposed that on the 29th of December last the Bill now handed to him was presented at that bank for payment. He paid that bill in four 100!. and two 501. notes. He knew the numbers of these notes. The forged bill was presented for payment between ten and eleven o'clock. Soon after he had paid this bill, Mr. Hickman, from the Bank of England, called on him, and in reply to a question from him, he (witness) said that " all was right." Mr. Bawtrey, clerk of the Bank of England, here produced the notes in question. Mr. Baker re-examined—All these notes had the private mark of the Bank of England, L.C. Did not know why the Bank of England should have sent to the bank of Messrs. Fuller. Cross-examined—Had no recollection of the rerson who presented the bill. Joseph Green, clerk in the Bank of England, recollected the 4001. notes being brought to the issue department before twelve o'clock on the 29th of December last, thought he re ceived them from Kerp, but was not sure. The reason he sent to the bank of Messrs. Fuller was, that the person who asked for all gold had told him that that he got it from that bank. About five minutes afterwards he changed the two JO!. notes, but that was too small an amount for him to lake notice of the party who presented the notes. Mr. Hickman, clerk in the Bank of England, deposed that his attention was called to what had been deposed to by the last witness. Kerp was the party who presented the notes. After seeing Mr. Baker he ordered the money to be paid. Cross-examined by Mr. BALLANTINE—Did not remember to have ever seen kerp before. Thought that the person who presented these notes had no mustachios. Would swear positively that Ke r p was t h e party. K erp was in the Bank of England for about an hour. Did not recollect the dress which he then wore. Mr. Moses Samuel, a clothier, deposed to Brown and Karp having come to his shop, and that the latter purchased the former, who was wretchedly dressed, a suit of clothes. After two o'clock on the same day Brown came to his shop, and pulled out a double purse, full of sovereigns, and said, ' I have got i t, ' and that the young man who was with him had given him the money. The next day Kerp and Brown called to his shop. Kerp said to Brown, " Why did you run away?" Brown answered, " Because I heard the bankers asking you questions." Cross-examined by Mr. PARRY, for Brown—Had never seen Brown or Kerp before. His wife was in the shop upon each occasion when the prisoners called. W. IL Edwards, police-constable 139 L, saw the three pri soners standing together in Angel-court some time ago, Alexander beckoned ,to him (the policeman) and told him that he had a charge of forgery against the other two pri soners. He afterwards said that he had no charge against Brown, but that Kerp " was the villian." He afterwards missed Brown, but took Kerp and Alexander to the station house, when the officer refused to take the charge; but he went afterwards, attended by the two prisoners, to Messrs. Fuller's bank, and one of the gentlemen there gave the pri soners into charge, on the statement which he (the police man) male. In December last he saw the prisoner Brown in a coffee-shop, in Holborn, and took him into custody, and Brown admitted that he had changed four notes for 100/. and two for 501. for Alexander, for which he got 25/. from him. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty.—Sentence deferred. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BO Ear- STREET. John James Parker, alias Oledhurst, who has been several times remanded on a charge of stealing a prismatic compass, the property of Mr. Curtis, C.E., and whose case was fully stated in The Sun on the occasion of the first examination, was at length finally examined, and committed for trial. REPRESENTATIO N or THE UNIVERSITY OF (h" FORD.—There will be a contest for the representation of this University at the approaching general election, Mr. Estcourt having intimated his intention of retiring from Parliament The names of the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone and Sir W. Heathcote are severally spoken of as being the most likely to occupy the vacant :.-eat.
