Although its imports are greater than those of any previous year, and now exceed 50,000,000/. a-year, the exports are still larger by $12,000,000, counting Californian gold as a domestic production, which, economically speaking, it is. This is a fact indicating a healthy condition of trade, and confirms the views I have invariably taken—that the country is prosperous, and its business, although expanded and expand ing, is on a healthy basis. The constant demand for money for the construction of new and enlargement of old railways keeps a tight money market. There is no sign of want of prosperity. Railways in the West take the place of common highways and turnpikes in an old country. They penetrate tracts of land before inaccessible to mar kets, and carry with them and distribute the ra pidly increasing population of the United States. Though they may not pay the shareholders they increase the wealth of the country more than four fold the cost of construction. The cotton lands of the South have been visited by many adverse influences during the year, un favourable to a la rge crop. T hough we still have no certain information as to the whole crop, we know enough to say with a proximate accuracy that it will be under the average. The agricultural lands of the West, on the other hand, have been busy there, also, getting large new tracts into cul vation, and if the new year have genial sunshine and refreshing rain harmoniously intermingled we may look for an increased production of cereal crops. In the east, our city has continued its expansive strides with undiminished energy. New streets stretch their thin arms out on the rocky waste to the north. Old streets "down toun” lie in ruins preparatory to app, aring next year in th,, splen dour of marble and sandstone. Population still pours in ; wealth, churches, poverty, and crime in crease side by side, and croakers, here as every where, mourn over the rottenness and predict the speedy downfall of this Babylon. But in spite of all we grow, and grow rich, and growing rich spend our money—in houses that are palaces, in equip ages, silver, servants, and wines. New ships lie at our wharfs new warehouses rec e i ve new con signments, and we continue to prosper. The yel low fever hung at our dour for months, threatening to check our growth, and unquestionably did do injury to our trade, but not enough to be percep tible. With that exception the past year has been one of unbroken prosperity. Most noticeable of all is the increase in the good feeling towards England—not the good feeling of cabinets, but the more solid good feeling of popular will. I see it in every part of the country where the public mind has an opportunity to express itself. There islittle localnews of interest for this packet at this time. Congress will not be in session until the holidays am over. The House will tr to hold of the Pacific Rail way in and as they w ill jumble togetherS a some fo-rm or and ; and thus combi ne a variety of inte vrareststety of grants, ble that som e thi ng may pass. The modification of the tariff will also come up, upon the reports of Mr. Letcher and of Mr. Campbell. Mr. Letch er ' taking the tariff of 1846 a s it s basis, transfers bill, nufactured silks t o th e 3 0 per cent. schedule . iftnaa and bl a nk e t s t o th e 2 5 per cent. ; raw wool tox the 10 per cent. ; and raw silk and dyestuffs to the free list, and then a uniform reduction of 20 per cent. upon all the duties levied un d er the tariff of 1846. Mr. Campb e ll' s bill puts on the free list raw materials and dyestuffs used in A ; mer.call manufactures, and leaves blankets in the 20 per cent. schedule, and woollen goods and silk goods in the 25 and 30 per cent. schedules. A most remarkable criminal trial is going on here, the result of which, not known as I write, will probably be known before the mail leaves Boston. One Huntingdon, a billbroker of Wall-street, who robbed the " note-shavers" to the amount of half a million and lived en prince on the proceeds, is on trial for the forgeries. His counsel admit the exe cution of the paper, and set up insanity, because no sane man ever would have committed so glaring crimes. To prove this they rake up from a career of swindling every criminal act they can lay hands on (of which there seems to be plenty), and ask the jury to believe that so great a rogue must be an honest man. The Baltic brought us the news of the appoint meut of Mr. Matthew as Consul at Odessa. It will gratify hie many friends in this country to know EXETER AND YEOTIL. It appears the works on this line are satisfactorily progressing. The tunnels at Crewkerne and Honiton are in course of formation. In the course of a few weeks the works on the line at Whipton, near Exeter, are to be commenced with a view to carry on the line towards Honiton, and to facilitate the conveyance of materials from Topsham to the Honiton tunnel.

He said that be was happy to find that he had been preceded by Mr. Sergeant Parry and Mr. Giffard, who, having alluded to many points he in tended to touch on, precluded the necessity of his again referring to them. This bad truly been denominated a romance in one of the public papers, but it was not a history founded on fact, but a fiction got up with devilish ingenuity. Let them review the position of the pri soners at the bar. The learned counsel then referred to Tester, who was respectably connected, and held a responsible situation on the South -Easter❑ Railway, which he left for a more lucrative one on a railway in Sweden. Hearing there of what was doing in the country with reference to the inquiry relative to the robbery, he voluntarily left a place of safety and surrendered himself to justice in this country, feeling he was an innocent man. There were a variety al' scoundrels in this country, and, by his own confession, Agar was one. He was a perfect miracle, and deserved their careful attention and study, for it was on the statement of such a man that Tester's position depended. After alluding to the dangerous character of Agar and hie effect upon society if again ho obtained his liberty, the I earned counsel said Agar was one of the class of Inc n they read of in the middle ages, who would not hesitate to poison the cup of his nearest relative a wretch who, if he remained in a house, would not hesitate to commit murder, and everything that was bad, and who would rather fix, if p ossible,guilt on an innocent tuan, than one who had committed crime, fie charged Agar with having deliberately made a charge against Tester, which ho knew was false, and he had made this false and scandalous charge against Tester, because he was a man he could not corrupt, and one in whose conviction he would derive more, pleasure than in the conviction of one of his own class. After some further remarks or. Agar's conduct, his motive for making this statement, and the hope he had of regaining his liberty, no matter at, what cost to others, and which he would look upon as a noble triumph of art, and show himself the worthy head of the noble Guild of Scoundrels, the learned sergeant alluded to the philosophy, if he might Mr. Baron Martin proceeded to deliver the sentence of the Court. Addressing the prisoners he said—You, William Pierce, James Burgess, and George William Tester have all been convicted, upon pretty nearly the most conclusive evidence which it was possible to lay before a jury, of the offence with which you were charged. The man Agar i s a man w h o is as bad, I dare say, as bad ca n b e , b ut that he is a man of most extraordinary ability n o person who heard him exam i ne d can for a moment de n y. I do not entertain a doubt that it was because h e was an old, experience d t hi e f , note d f or hi s extraordinary skill, that he was applied to by you for the purpose of getting this robbery effected by his instru mentality. Something has been said of the romance con nected with that man's charac:;er, but let those wh-, fancy that there is anything great in it consider his fate, It is obvious, as I have said, that he is a man of extraor dinary tale n t ; that he gave to this, and perhaps to many other robberies, an amount of care and perseverance, One-tenth of which devoted to honest pursuits must have raised him to a respectable station in life, and, consider ing the commercial activity of this country during the last 20 years, would probably have enabled him to realise a large fortune. But look at the consequences of his career of crime. Instead of beingr a respected wealthy man, as he might have been, he is a slave fur life —sepa rate for ever from all be holds most dear. It is perfectly clear that he was fond of associating with persons el the other sex, but he is entirely cut off from all such associations. He is condemned to a wretched and miserable life. He is dealt with as. a complete slave, and has no more centrol over his own actions than the veriest slave that has existed since the world began. I did not think it rig ht to notice, while the trial was going on, the obse::vations which were made by counsel on the probabilit y of his getting his discharge as the price of the evidel ice he has given here to-day. That is entirely in the b reast 'of the Crown ; we have nothing to do with it ; bi it it does not at all follow as a matter of course that a . man of his character will be released from prison t , ecause he has given evidence whi c h h as b ad the effect ( d bringing you to jus tice. He has related to us the v; L .rious circumstances of this robbery, anc has narrated mit lute details which have been c on fi rme d Ly upwards of i 0 witnesses' with whom it was perfectly impassible that hej ,could have had any But to know where the key wag kept and to obtain possession of it were very different things, and Agar, ac• cording to his own story, was much disheartened. Not Pierce. Pierce knew a young man named Tester, who was in the office of the Superintendent of Traffic, and Tester could get possession of the keys for them. Ho w . ever, time rolls on, and we are in August, when Pierce discovers that the locks are to be altered and that the new keys will be in Tester's hands. Tester was the clerk who corresponded with Mr. Chubb on the subject, and by his means the impression of key which opened one lock of each box was obtained. But, as each box had two locks, it was necessary to obtain the impression of another key, and the following device was adopted : —Agar was in possession of no less a sure than 3,000/. It was arranged that a box of bullion of the value of 2001. should be conveyed in the iron safe in the usual way, and that it should be delivered to him under the name of Archer. Agar goes for the box, and it is delivered to him by Chapman, who opens the safe with a key which he takes from a cup board. Thus Agar learns where the second key is kept. Now, how are they to obtain an impression of the key ? Two mouths have elapsed since they got the impression of No. 1 ; this is October, and they are still without No. 2. But they are not disheartened. Pierce and Agar go down to Dover and put up at the Dover Castle ; they walk over to Folkestone, and arrive just when the train is coming in. Tn the confusion of an arrival the at- Loelartts leave the office for a few minutes. Pierce goes boldly in, opens the cupboard which csntains the key of the iron safe, and bands it to Agar, who takes an impres sion and replaces it. Thus five months after the recon naissance at Folkestone they have surmounted the first difficulty which suggested itself to the reflecting min d of Agar—they have obt a i ne d wax impressions of the keys. Everything else remains to be done. The next thing, of course, was to make keys from the impressionF. For that purpose lod Lambeth and K enn i ngton. Pierce cfi t' s ' o g ulse sn s re hi t in ak s e e n lf in ina blank wig, an d t h e next two months are spent in filing keys. When the keys were completed to a probable siruilarity with the masterpieces of Chubb—no easy task, it would seem , for two-inexpert operators with common This ease has excited a considerable degree of interest, and this was the third time that it has been before the Court. It appeared that Dr. O'Connor has frequently ridden in a cab from the stand at the corner of Francis street, Tottenham-court-road, to the Royal Free Hospi tal, for which he has paid a fare of 6d. Some weeks back cabman William Clarke, 390, obtained two sum monses against him for two fares of 6d. each, which, on being heard before Mr. Tyrwhitt, were decided accord ing to the offici a l b oo k o f cab fares, which states the eistance to be 420 yards more than a mile, and Dr. O'Connor was obliged to pay Bs., including the costa of the two summonses, the cabman's loss of time, and the two sums demanded. In a few days after, Dr. O'Con nor appeared at this office before Mr. Tyrwhitt, when he stated that, having some doubts as to the correctness of the book, he walked the distance in 1,582 steps, and subsequently had the ground measured by a competent person on two several occasions, when it was found to ,Je only 1,580 yards, that is, 180 less than a mile, and he therefore thought the case a fit one for re-investiga tio n. This the magistrate declined doing, and Dr. O'Connor continued to rile the same distance, giving only sixpence for the fare, with the view of again bring ing the matter under the notice of the magistrate for further investigation. ALast Monday week Dr. O'Con nor got into the cab, 390, the driver of which had pre viously summoned him to this court, and, on refusing to pay more than lid., another summons was issued against him, whieli .:aine 6n fur hearing on Wednesday week, on which day it was .rranged that• the ground should be measured by the officer of the court, and it was accord ingly adjourned for further hearing, when the magis trate, after the officer of the court had stated that he had measured the ground, and found it to be 390 yards short of a mile, that the book was wrong, and therefore his jugdment must be in favour of Dr. O'Connor and against' the cabman. The cabman objected to the decision a 3 being in op. position to the act, which stated that the official book of the commissioners was to be considered conclusive in all cases of disputed fares. E—Evening, Mr. Tyrwhitt said that view was perfectly correct un bil the book was found to be wrung. In this case, owing to some accident, he supposed, the book is found to be „ BIRTHS, OP A SON.
