The Court of Assizes of La Manche has just tried a lad named Legouey, aged only fifteen, for murder and robbery, and two men named Benoist and Leparmentier for complicity in the robbery. A widow named Legouey, of Houerville (not related Who first named prisoner), was on the 30th Dec. last found lying dead in her house in a pool of blood, having been murdered by blows with a hatchet. Her pockets were torn off, and the drawers in the house were ransacked ; so that it was evident that the murder had been committed for the sake of robbery, and suspicion fell on, Legouey, who was a mauvais sujet, and he was arrested ; his clothes were found to be stained With blood, and on being confrcnted with the corpse, he burst into ' tears and confessed that he Was the murderer. He had, he said, been recom mended by Benoist and Lepa rmentier to rob the Widow, who was supposed to be rather rich ; and on the day in question be had undertaken to do so, and was to give part of his booty to the two men. Accordingly he went to her home, whilst the 317 0 men remained in a publ ic house. His inten tion was simply to rob her, but finding that was !)0t so easy as he had imagined , he murdered her ; I !f3 then stole 30 francs, which was all the mone y he, could find; after which, though cove red with blood, he returned to the public-house, where he , gave the other two men 6f. each. On this confes ‘,„ the two men were arrested. When before the • Legouey rope cted his st or y and wept bitterly as he did so ; the other two p i isoners energetically denied that they had commilt d the robl.ery o r ,L • profited by it ; and They still more eni-rgetic,ally `The b e i ng i n an y way responsible for the murder. jury, After examining all the circumstances, acquitted Leparmenti. r, and convicted Le.:ouey of murder and robbery, and Benoist of comp licity in the robbery. The court sentenced Le g ouey, on account of his youth, to twenty years' Imprison lent, and Benoist to five years' hard labour.

ROYAL SOCIETY OF MUSICIANS —The 119th anniver sary festival of this highly useful charity took place at the Freemasons%hall yesterday, whet about 130 mem bers,,subscribers, and visitors sat down to an excellent dinner. FRUIT AND POTATO METAGE.—Yesterday a meeting of the trades concerned in the importation of fru.t and vegetables took place in the tale-room of Messrs. K,.el ing and Hunt, Monument-yarJ, for the purpose of adopt ing measures to resist the payment of the unnece-sary charge for metage on these articles. Mr. Keeling, the chairman, observed that the interference of the city meter,' was uncalled for, and useless to the trade. FRIGHTFUL RAILWAY ACCIDENT. —Yesterday morn ing, between the hours of eight and nine o'clock, the various passengers travelling by the Pailiamentary train, which left, Dover at half-past six o'clock the same morning, for London, were painfully excited, in consequence of the following deplorable occur rence, which was attended with fatal results to a trades man much respected by the company, and who had been rkcently married ;—From the particulars ob tained, it a ppears that the unfortunate man was a brick layer, and was in the act of crossing the line, with a scaffold-pele upon his shoulders, when he stopped to speak to his wife, who was standing on the platform. Whilst so engaged, the down Paatatneatary train came in sight, and the g uard_ el s o o w u , nded the whistle no doubt, ex in the usual way. The poor f I time to get pected that he would have plent out of the way before the train reached the n ot the case, station, but unfortunately such and while he was taking leave of his wife ife for the morn ing, the locomotive struck either the p ole or tne man's body, and hurled him half-way across t he metals. The engine-driver at once shut off the steam, t he g uard ap plied the breaks roost vigorously, and every endeavour was made to reverse the engine, b u t the same could not be accomplished until the wheels of the toe niotive and nearly the whole of the carriages and trucks bad passed over him. Blood immediately flowed in Copious streams from the poor fellow's body, and when picked up several pieces of bone from his legs were found on the permanent way. The mangled remains were re moved to the Tonbridge station, a medical gentleman was sent for, who promptly attended, but not to be of any assistance, as life was quite extinct, Not the least blame can be attributed to any of the company's servants in charge of the train. The body now lies to await a coroner's irque-t. THE 'MIDDLE AGES. AND OUR OWN TIMES.--Th ere is another fact I would dare to match with all the upholstery confession of the middle ages. Show me the equivalent to a money-loving people putting its hands into its oa pocket, tot to build proud towers, but to ecnarcipat e de graded savages ; giving 20,000,000, not at the bidding of an imperious monarch or a tyrannical priesthood, but at the spontaneous esl l of the national conscience, and by the immediate instrumental ty of the national will. There is a moral grandeur in this money erant " that sinks the Pyramids into littleness. As for Christian heroism, what can history chronicle or poetry invent of Godfrey, Richard, or St. Lou s, that does not rale before the simple details of that poor despised Patagonian mis Rion of the other day I I will not be content myself with even the names of "Nightingale" and her noble aisterao—ltev.

Notwithstanding that we had a very limited supply of Enelish wheat in our market to-day, the demand for all kinds ruled exceedingly heavy, at barely Monday's decline in the quotations. The general quality of the samples was by no means good. The fresh imports of foreign wheat have been limited, yet the show of samples, ex granary, was good. So few transactions took place that prices were almost nominal. In floating cargoes of grain very little was passing. Barley was in fair supply and sluggish request, but not °haver. There was a fair demand for malt at foil prices. Oa s, beaus , and peas changA a t slowly, at Mon day's fall in value. The flour trtd , was very dull. ARRIVALS THIS WEER. Wheat. Barley. Malt.

DISCOVERY OF FRENCH MARBLE.—TEe richness of France in marble is of a coreperative recent discovery. Very lately a new treasure of the kinj has turned' up, • in the shape of what rosy almost be called a mountain of marble, near Paris. Several varieties have a'ready been quarried from it, !lamely, St: Anne, rouge royale, petit antique, black granite, Grisperle, and Breche. The property has recently o;ianged hands fur a trifle more than its mere agricultur a l value. if the report of geologists and engineers who have inspected it are to he believed, the estate is likely to prove more valuable to the new holder than a geld or silver mine. The marble can be delivered at Paris for from 701. to 90f. the cubic metre, or little more than the price of common stone ; and Belgium alone exports annually to Paris from Fix to seven milli - ins of cubic metres. The Times of Wednesday announces the fact that the we 1-known American heu-e of Dodge, B and Co., had re.urned payments, their suspension having been caused l.y liabilities in no way affecting thn trade pesi thin of the firm, which is said to be in a bigely prosper ous and healthy condition. Toe house of Dodge, Bacon, and Co. has always been regarded as one commanding consid,irable mercantile energy, and its rise to its present position Is, perhaps, in no slight degree due to the un precedented advance in the pride of leather, which has afforded them the opportunity of introducing throughout Europe a singularly close and valuable imitation, known, as " Crockett's Leather Cloth," and which is now ap plied to most purposes where formerly the skins of vari ous animals were used. This, and their India.rubber banding, &c., fur machinery, to supersed e l eat h er , h ave , from the advance in question, thrown upon the resources of the firm an unusual amount of business.

The reception of M. de FaCux the Acalemy to-day, to fill the place of the la!9 Count Mole, at tracted a more than usual Concourse of visitors. It was previously known that M. de Fallout's speech had, at the request of the Council of the Acadeniy, been considerably modified. The political world was moreover curious t) see how the ancient Mi nister of the President of the Repuhlic would recon cile his new position with his former opinions. Neither was it an easy task for M. de Falloux to de liver an eulogium on Count Mole, his predece:sor. It was recollected that the political career of the illustrious deceased was not, always . consistent. Count Mole, who was Minister under Napoleon 1., and under Louis XVIII., conducted in the Cham ber of Peers a strong opposition against the Govern ment of the Restoration.. Count Mole was subse quently Prime Minister under Louis Philippe. He became an ardent fusionist after a visit to Count de Chambord at Frohsdorff, and so continued to his death. M. de Fallout acquitted himself of his d'ficult task with great skill. His flexible talent and supple tongue carried him through, • and his dis c.urse was vehemently applauded, particularly the passage referring to the year 1830. He concluded amidst three rounds of applause. The " Code Napoleon" is in course of translatidh into the Turkish language. It is done with a view to assist the Commission appointed by the .Sul an to examine and report on the reforms which it is possible to introduce into the laws of the empire. The Moniteur de l'Arm,ee announces that iu con sequence of the East India Company, through the intervention of the British Government, having ceded to the Emperor of the French the house oc capied by the first Napoleon at St. Helena, and the tomb in which his mortal remains were deposited until the year 1840, the house is immediately to repaired. The tomb is to be restored to the state was when it contained the remains of the great man, and probably a funereal chapel will be added. All the places in fact which have been immortalised by his presence will be carefully guarded—the hill from which, in fine weather, he rontempated the sea, and the point of the road at which he returned when riding on hombscir. A Paris letter in the Nord of Brussels, says : " It is stated, in well-informed circles here, that several changes are about to take place in the F►ench diplomatic. body at various Courts. The Duke de Grammont de Guiche, it is said, is to re place Count de Monty at St. Petersburg. The mission at TUrin is to be confided to M. de la Tour d'Auvergne, who yields his post of minister pleni potentiary at Florence to Baron de Malaret. M. de Segur, first secretary at Constantinople, becomes minister en disponibilite. M. Lallemand quits his post at Brussels to replace M. de Segur at Constan tinople. Count d'Astorg becomes first secretary at Brussels. M. de Ftezal quits his post at Stockholm for the Hague, and is replaced by the Count de Digeitn, lately third secrqtary at Naples."

The state of trade at the port of St. Petersburg during the past year, showing the extent to which that poi t not only recoyeted, but also surpess,d its commercial activity before t ;e war, will c , rtainly be of too great inter.v., p•lrticulally to yoiir Com al reader,, to require anv kngthe:ied exor dium on our part, or apology for its introduction here. . - In 1856 the total value of all articles imported was 68,871,752 r. ; of all artias exported, 54.926,091 r: ; Of the imports the nips,. ext,nsive were raw cott•tn, amount:ng to 13,452,029 r. ; ptecious 9,343,672 r. ; raw s ugar , 8 , 0 05,520 r. ; colours, 6,702,447 r. ; sundrie..„ 15,786,050 r. Of • t total =ult of 68,871,752 r., no less thau 64.257,7 - 20 r. was the value of good, imported - by Rus4.an merchants, whsle the foreign-i-s -tradi ng there imported only to the amount of 4 ,491,740 r. • Of the exports the m-st extensive were grain, to art al:ll , mA of 15,355,666 r. ; tailuw, 11,445,92t)r.; sundries 14.762,035 r. ; and then the only article of any amount remtining to be mentioned is tiptop, 4,100,458 r. Of the t a.notint of 54,926,091 r., ihee Rus-i.n merchants expoited to the ex eut of 39,558,999 r., whde the foreigners trading there ex ported to the amount of 15,311,562 r. The total amount of Customs dui s received at St. Peterahurg-, and Cron , tadt on the imports and ex ports of 1856 was 9,700,733 r. The following - LAWN of the exports cleared out at St. Petersburg during the last four years will show the effects of the war on that chief port of Russian trade, and its recovery atter the peace Rouhlfs. The exports in 1853 were 53,267.261 I/ 1854 „ If 1855 „ 1856 ~ The fo l lowing figures show the large proportion of Russian exports that Great Britain takes, which teaches us at the same time the exp ditui3y of Bet ting to wof k at once to obtain ago d treaty of com merce with her, as soon as the tirif atrangemeLts are concluded, and the neQessity of providing our selves during peace with other markets to buy in, so that we may be independent of her when poli tics require we should go to war with her. Of•the 1,214,000 ponds of hemp which she expo/tea in 1856, England took p 20,800 pou.le ; r f 238,400 pouds of flax, 598,800 ponds 2 • of 2,574,121 p on d s of tall w, 1,856,954 ; of 727,160 pouds of Loir'es, 676,929 ; of 765,142 tchetwerts of wheat, 649,307 ; of 32 ',693 telicrwerts of cat , 4, 297,494 ; and of 695,093 ponds of iron, nearly the whole, namely, 641,435 ponds, b;.isides 9,09 u l ouds of Old iron. The navigation opened May bth (N.S. 17th), and was closed Nov. 22d (N.& Dec. 4th). The total number of arrivals was 3,374 ; of these 1,176 came in hallaA ; of the remaining 2,198 vessel, 631 brought coals. Of the 430 s t eamers ' h at entered that port last year, 155 came from Eng land. The suddenness with which the winter set in caused no less than 377 vessels to be blocked up the ice at St. Petersburg and Cronstadt, against Bon the previous winter. The total numb er c f ar- rivals at the port during 1856, as mentioned above, 3,374, above, when compared with 1,921, that of 1853, the last Tar before the war, an increase of 1,453. Addit;onal light is thrown on Russian trade and navigation by a report on the craft that has paised the Sound daring The last year, from which we ex trict the following Ttie vesBels that pawed the Sound in 1856, coming from the German Ocean, with car- goes, were Ditto, in ballast Coming from the Baltic, with cargoes Ditto, in ballast 8,930 1,362 9,839 499 Amounting altogether to being an increase of 4,745 vessels on the preceding year, but a diminution of 228 on the number in 1853. Of those that entered the Baltic 2,485 brought carg( e 4 for Russian ports, the most promi nent element which was raw cotton, amounting in all to 170,000 bales, of about 4501 b. Russian each ; of these 170,000, there culla 56,100 direct from the Uttie:l 95,0:i0 from England, 12,000 from Holland and Belgium, &c. Of those vessels that left the Baltic with Ruz-sian exports ou oard them were 4,183—viz., 1,901 from St. Pe tersburg, 1,581 from Riga, and the rest from Wyhorg, Narva, Liban, Revel, Pernau, &c. The Russian shipping trade seems to have endeavoured tu the pa-t year io wake up by increased activity for the losses it had sustained during the war, for we find that 194 Russian v es s e l s , o f which uo fewer than 66 were built from 1855 to 1856, con trived in the latter year to make 456 trips thr3uwh the Sound. bast year's navigation of the Baltic has been remarkable for the great increase in the proportion of steamers, of which no less than 684 passed the Sound ; 414 of them were English, 158 Swedish - and Norwegian, and 7 Russian. The general results of the movement of trade throughout the empire in the preceding year, viz., 1855, have also been publahed. According to these statistics there were in 1855 goods exporttd— Over the European frontier to Over the Asiatic frontier In Finland Out of the kingdom of Poland R 7,577,297 10,347,649 1 643,257 9,947,237 Precinug 'petals exported— Over European tfontier Oyer the Atlititic frontier Out of Poland 39,515,440 -1.990,599 3,895,227 244,184 Total exports..
