DESPERATE OUTRAGE.—On Wednesday evening last, as Mr. Forde, son of Captain Forde, of this town, was walking towards the Knather, he was attacked by three or four fel lows, who beat him in a most shocking manner, and left him apparently lifeless in a field, where Messrs. Bidwell and Feely of this town providentially happened to pass shortly afterwards, and, hearing some moans, looked over the ditch, where they found the young gentleman lying weltering in his C . , c , ... blood, speechless ; they rendered him every assistance, and had him conveyed home.

He does not appear to be at all affected by the awful position in which he is placed, and his demeanour seems to be that of a man conscious of having committed a desperate act and prepared for the consequences ; at least such appears to be the opinion of the officers of the gaol. He is under strict surveillance, in order that there may be no possibility of his doing any violence to himself, and Mr. M`Murdo, the medical officer of the prison, who has had very great experience in cases of monomania and insanity, is in constant attendance upon the prisoner, and there is very little doubt that his evidence will be most important atltthe trial, where the only question that will be raised is the sanity or insanity of the accused. Immediately after the postpone- . ment of the trial by Lord Abinger, communications took place between Mr. Humphreys, the prisoner's attorney, and the solicitor to the Treasury, and arrangements were made to furnish the necessary funds for the prisoner's defence, the receipt for £750 lodged in the Glasgow Bank, that was taken from the prisoner, being still retained by the crown solicitor in order to its being produced at the trial. Agents have been since despatched to Boulogne, and also to Glasgow, and dif ferent parts of Scotland where the prisoner has resided at different periods of his life; and it is said that a number of witnesses have been brought forward who will be able to give material evidence as to the state of the prisoner's mind, and with a view to show that at the time he committed the act imputed to him he was not in a condition of mind to be able to distinguish between right and wrong. The next session of the Central Criminal Court will commence on the 27th instant ; and it is generally understood that the trial will take place on the Wednesday, which is the first day of the Queen's judges taking their seats on the bench. SINGULAR OUTRAGE.—On Saturday night last, a stout man, well dressed in black, about thirty years of age, called at the bar of the Royal Exchange, Glasgow, and inquired of one of the attendants whether the rooms were opened on Sunday, and whether be could next morning be supplied with writing paper and a steel pen. On being told that the rooms were opened on the sabbath, and that he should have the articles wanted, he went away. Next morning he again called, according to appointment, when he commenced by exclaiming, " You have opened this place to day, and the whole of you will be sent to hell !" The intruder next stated that he had come to take down the names of all those who frequented the place on the sabbath. On being asked whe ther he was a subscriber, he replied that he was not; and he was then informed that he had no right whatever to come there or to take down any gentleman's name. He then got rather outrageous, and gave the grate a violent kick with his foot, when he was thrust to the door. It seems that he next proceeded to the Old Coffee-room, where:he asked Mr. Buchanan if he really opened upon the Sunday? On being told he might see they did, he exclaimed, " Oh, you are all a parcel of knaves and fools. Those that opened these bars (pointing to the windows,) have shut, the gates of heaven upon themselves!" He then went off. Yesterday fore noon, were rather• surprised by a decent-looking man calling at this office and requesting to know whether we were friendly to the opening of the Royal Ex change on Sunday? Getting suspicious immediately, we at once asked our visiter whether he was not the person who had entered the Exchange with a weapon in his hand on Sun day ? This was instantly replied to by his pulling a knife from his pocket, which he described as " a flaming sword !" In a quiet way we took possession of the instrument, while we argued with the man on the gross impropriety of his conduct. This only served to convince us of his complete insanity on the question at issue, and of the danger of having such a man going at large. After returning him his weapon, wrapped up in a piece of paper, he left this office and pro ceeded towards Queen-street, where he went into a shop. Among the rhapsodies uttered by him when in this office, he declared that " if any of those who attend the rooms had shops or other property the vengeance of God would reach them—his duty was to go and take down names, and if not listened to with a knife, he slkould know what to do."—Glas gow Constitutional. tbtpplitil irate' 44,‘„"rt •-•...ig51.-- TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2l.=Wind S.E. fresh.

Moreau de Jonnes has published a work on the culture of corn in France, from which we extract the following details :—" Out of 55 millions of hectares the cultivation of wheat occupies the tenth part or 5,500,000 hectares, which represent the two-fifths of the whole land in cultivation. In Spain only, 2,800,000 hectares are under wheat, and in Prussia 417,000. The quantity of seed used in France for the above quantity of land exceeds 41 millions of hectolitres. The annual crop being about 60 millions, th e p r oduce is in the proportion of 61 to 1, so that 59 millio ns o f h ec t r olites remain for consump tion. The following f ac t proves the great fertility of the French soil :—France, Great Britain, Sweden, Poland, Prussia, Holland, Belgium, an d Spain produce altogether bout 137 millions of h ec tolitres of wheat , and in this amount e, ^ is down for 70 m illi ons . In France the i average an ption of whe a t f or e ach inhabitant s 210 litres ; at lyttain, 163 ; i n S pa i n , 127; in Holland, 57 ; in ( i ,36; in Poland, 25 ;i n Sweden, 8.

As a proof of the meets of the extraordinary drift of sno which fell, the Exeter and Yeovil mail, which should have arrived on Sunday morning, did not arrive until Monday, having been compelled, through stress of weather, to re- re rend :11 many the whole night at Andover frequently coin over meadows, I pelted to diverge from the high road snd pass fallow land, and ploughed fields, which they ef- fected with lea's difficulty than might be imagined, from the load 1.1.11 c 116a4u the drift, and which sopert .tly changed theaspect of the coun try, that the mail was obliged to work from farmhouse to farm house, as the only marks to direct it, for a space of three hours, during which it only progressed six miles. The Exeter De fiance coach was also detained from similar causes, and, in stead of arriving in London at 3 o'clock on Sunday after noon, only reached the metropolis at 12 o'clock on Monday. To such an extraordinary depth had the drift taken place at the White Hart, Andover, that two gentlemen who only wanted to proceed the distance of three miles were detained two days. Upon the first essay which they made they en gaged a postchaise, but had not proceed above a mile when it was found necessary to cut the vehicle out. On the se cond attempt which they made they had to take the horses out of the chaise and return on their backs; and in another instance a party engaged a gig, but met with a similar dis aster. _ _ On the south-eastern part of the country similar serious effects were felt from the drift, particularly in the neighbour hood of Ashford, which prevented the m a il s , b ot h up and down, from reaching their respective destinations on Satur day night and Sunday morning, as the road was completely blocked up between Dover and Ashford. The cross mails and coaches to and from the Great Wes tern stations met with a similar obstruction, amongst which may be enumerated the different branches, particularly the Exeter and Taunton, which could reach no further than Honiton, a lth oug h it made repeated attempt s . Th e Maid mstoonrneinegoaact 9 h, o'clock,whe with great diffi cu l ty ( t h e snow several times the Bull an d M out h on S aturday times being as high as the backs of the horses) reached as snow its w P far as Farni ng h am , when it was obliged to re t urn to Lon don seugers. The coach s t arte d aga i n on Mon also visited th e ne i gh b ourhood of Chat day mornin g , an d was entitled to ge t th roug h i ts j ourney. The wit no storm as ham on Friday night and Saturday. During the whole of ' " arday the weather was extremely boisterous, the wind hurricane from the east, drifting the In some places the public streets During Friday and Saturday the blowing a .complete snow several feet in •ong easterl ugmented the tide that it Over lowed several hundred acres of land, and in Strood the water flowed up the high roads, overflowing cellars, par lours, and shops, causing considerable injury to much pro perty. Any communication for foot-passengers was stopped between Rochester and Strood until the tide returned. The same circumstance occurred at Gillingham, travellers were there conveyed in carts to and fro for some distance. Be tween Sheerness and Chatham the river overflowed the sea walls, and bursting into the marches presented one sheet of water for several miles in extent and breadth. Th e Dock yard wall, the gun-wharf, and other places, the wate rs rushed fearfully over, On Saturday morning the stage coach, on its road to Maidstone, near to Fort Clarence, became so imbedded in snow that considerable labuor was required to dig it out. The coach was obliged to return again to Rochester. The mail cart from Maidstone to Ro chester was also obliged to he dug out of snow six feet in depth. On Monday 150 men were employectto clear the road from Foot's Cray to Farningbam, &c., which was completely choked up by the heavy fall on Friday and Saturday. The Favourite coach, from Maidstone to London, was obliged to stop at Farningham on Saturday afternoon, and remained all night. At Farnborough the snow was 16 feet deep in the vicinity of the police-station. All the hilly part of the dis trict of West Kent was nearly in the same condition. Since the thaw the lirnekilns at Lewisham have been inundated ; and on Monday the waters were so high from the drains hav ing been choked, that for some time many people could not get in or out of their house FACTORY PROSECUTION .—CAUTION TO MILLOWNERS.— At the Justice of Peace Court, held in Glasgow, on the 15111 curt., Mr. John Houston of Claythorn•street Weaving Fac tory, was charged at the instance of Charles Balfour, Super intendent of Factories, for infringing the Factories' Regula tion Act, by employing a child under thirteen years of age, and keeping or allowing him to remain in the factory for more than forty-eight hours a-week, or nine hours a-day, without a surgeon's certificate of age, schoolmaster's voucher, or registration of the child's name in the register of workers and time register, as required by the rules of said statute ; and as these charge were established to the satisfaction of the Court, the defender was convicted accordingly, and found liable in £3 of penalties, besides £5 4s. Gd. of costs. A very unaccountable noise or explosion, like as if a vast quantity of gunpowder had been fired under water, was heard in Lisburn and the surrounding neighbourhood, on Sunday last, about ten minutes before three o'clock in the afternoon. I have made inquiry from several persons, some of whom live and were upwards of seven miles distant, and yet heard it as distinctly as it was heard here by many ; all of whom agreed with me that it was not like thunder, as it was one astound ing sound; nor was it like the noise of cannon, except one hundred cannon fired at one simultaneous discharge, and it being on Sunday it could not have been that in all proba bility. A gentleman who dined with me on Sundsy also re marked it, and he said it was very much like what preceded an earthquake he had felt when in the West Indies.—Ulster Times. FATAL AVALANCHES.—The neighbourhood of Chamouni has suffered exceedingly this year from the fall of avalanches. On the 15th of January, in particular, a great number came down, and considerable damage was effected. At Ouches, between the baths of St. Gervais and Cbamouny, the dead bodies of a father and his three daughters have been dug out. The mother and another daughter were found alive. At St. Nicholas a young girl was killed by the fall of a mass of snow from Mont Joly, and, by another fall, the steeple of the church of Valorsine was thrown down, and the roofs were stripped from the church and the house of the cure. This fall was followed by several others, so that from Argentieres and Vallorsine, a three hours' journey, nothing can be seen but masses of snow, the bridges, houses, and t rees h av i ng totally disappeared. A village not far from Megere was totally overwhelmed, and fourteen persons were killed. COMPARATIVE EXPORTS OF AIANUFACTURES AND RAW MATERIAL.—The decrease of our exports in manufactured goods on the one hand, and the increase which, on the other, has of late years taken place in the amount of raw materials sent out of the country to be manufactured in other lands, may be taken as one way of accounting for the distress and suflering:which exist throughout the country, and more par ticularly in the manufacturing districts. It appears from Burn's Commercial Glance, that the amount of cotton yarn exported from this country in 1841 was 1 15,665,4881 b., and in 1842, 136,537,1621 b., showing a progressive increase in the exports of raw material. In 1842 the total quantity of prin ted and dyed calicoes exported from England was 278,748,275 yardr, and in 1842, 236,012,641 yards ; showing the decreas in the manufactured exports. The exports of cambrics show a falling off of full 50 per cent. upon a comparison between the same two years. REFUSAL OF CERTIFICATE TO MR. JOHN WRIGHT, THE LATE BANKER, OF LONDON.--In this case we are happy to state, that the certificate was absolutely refused ; and we hope this precedent will be invariably followed, for no banker can possibly become a bankrupt if he adheres to his legitimate business, and does not absorb the funds intrusted to his safe custody by personal extravagance. The banker stands in a position distinct from every other trader; deposits form no part of his own proper capital, and nothing can justify him in speculating with the property of his constituents. We must also look to the injury inflicted by the failure of a bank ing house, involving as much ruin, in many cases, as the siege of a town, rendering families as desolate as when de prived of husbands and fathers by the extermination of war. The judgment we have noticed has done honour to our judges, and given unmixed satisfactiorr to the commercial world.—Sentinel. MELANCHOLY SHIPWRECK. — During the late heavy gales a vessel, supposed to be the Salus, of Greenock, was wrecked on the island of Innistrahull; part of the stern-post 'of a small boat, having that name cut on it, was washed ashore with other pieces of the wreck. It was thought that she must have been disabled, and had lost her sails and rigging long before she was driven on the rocks of Innistrahull, as, with the exception of a part of one mast, none of the masts or any parts of the sails or riggin g co u ld b e seen along the coast. So complete was the wreck, that the coast-guards of the different stations who went to see her did not consider it worth their pains to stop by her. A few barrels of ale or porter, from 20 to 30 webs of striped calico, which was much damaged by being tossed on the rocks, some new blue Scotch bonnets, and a considerable number of spools of thread, were washed ashore, but as yet no intelligence respecting the crew has been procured. They are supposed to have perished.— Ballyskannon Herald. BIRTH IN THE SNOW.—A few days since a young woman named sides Janet Farr,. twas on h er way to her f at h er ' s , w h o accompanied by he r s i s t er an d a young man re e Campbell, named Agnus Gordon. When about two miles past Lead nogullem (it was then ten o'clock at night,) she felt the pains of labmir, and Gordon immediately started off to pro cure assistance, leaving the woman, with her sister, behind. The snow at this time was lying deep in the roads, and it was with the greatest diffi cu lty a cart could travel over it. When the man got back again with blankets, &c., and a bed to place the woman upon in the cart s he found her lying on the snow in the middle of the road, having been delivered of a fine boy about a quarter of an hour previously ! Her sister stood by her in the greatest distress of mind, 4 and nearly perished with the cold, having`Stripued off almost the whole of her own clothes to put about the young mother and her infant son. The parties were carefully removed, and both mother and child are doing remarkably well.—John o'Groal Journal. CUTTING BOTH WAYS.-Mr. M. Corbally, one of the members for Meath, having been applied to for his sub scription to the funds of the Trim Repeal Association, the hon. gentleman, being one of the " aristocratic whigs," and, as such, opposed to separation, in the course of hs reply thus very ingeniously screens himself from the consequences of a refusal to contribute to Alderman O'Connell's plethoric mo ney bags :—" Had the object in view of that body," says Mr. Corbally, " been merely ;o carry on the agitation for the re peal of the union, I frankly confess that, with the opinion which I conscientiously hold on the subject, I could not have complied with their request; but as the intention conveye d in ybur letter is to appropriate the money to the purchase of books, &c., which will tend to enlighten the minds of the people on the great question of the repeal of the union, I have great pleasure in sending the enclosed, being desirous, as I hope I shall always be, to place in the hands of my con stituents the means of judging for themselves on a question of such importance, on which there are such conflicting opinions, but upon which all true Irishmen (and I trust I am one) wish to come to a just conclusion." In responding to the cry for " money," Mr. Corbally may rest assured that he has come to the very wisest "conclusion " he could under the circumstances.

Although there has been only a moderate arrival of Potatoes during the week, yet from the previous heavy stock, and slow sale there is as yet scarcely any diminution of the quantity offering. The business at present dping in retail is only of a trifling cha racter at Id. decline from last week's currency the bulk of the little business passing, being chiefly confined to the operations of country dealers: the prices of Cups have ranged from 12d to laid, and Pink-eyes 13d to 14d per gOlbs. There has only been one cargo of Sweed Turnips to hand, which have realized 15s to 17s per ton.

With a change in the weather we have had a good deal of rain yesterday and to-day, but the wind continuing in the same adverse quarter, very few vessels have arrived bete since Friday ; the fresh supplies of Grain are therefore un important, and of Flour only moderate, but of Oatmeal rather liberal, the two last named articles having been, ten veyed chiefly by steamers. The indifferent state of the surrounding markets towards the close of last week, and similar accounts received from London this morning, serve, in addition to the causes no ticed in the preceding report, to render the trade at our Corn Exchange to-day wholly unsusceptible of amendment. Upon a very slow, limited, retail demand merely, all de scriptions of English, Irish, and foreign Wheats were offered, with little effect, at a decline of ld., and in some instances 2d. per 701bs. below the rates of this day week was accepted. English and Irish Flour was in fair request, the former at ls., and the latter at 6d. per sack abatement; whilst States and Canadian nearly maintained late prices. Barley and Malt, although taken off less freely, remained steady in value. Beans and Pease continued to rule in the same dull state as for some time past. Oats, although good qualities are still very scarce, ap peared to attract little notice, and barely sustained former prices; Oatmeal, at the same time, moving sparingly into the hands of consumers,-at a reduction of 6d. per 240 lbs.
