LEGISLATIVE COURTESIES IN OFIIO.—A. most disgrace ful scene occurred in the Ohio Legislature a few days since, adding another to the list of legislative outrages which fur nish food for foreigners in their repasts• upon republican enormities. One Byington, having been very properly foiled by the Speaker in his attempts to embarras the House of Representatives in its action on a particular bill, sent to the chair a resolution, purporting to be an amendment of the bill, declaring " that the Speaker of the house had forfeited all confidence as an impartial presiding officer, either from stupid ignorance of Parliamentary law, or from a wilful mal administration of it." The Speaker, as was proper for him to do, left the chair, and called a member to it. After some disgraceful sparring the bill before the house was, by common consent, laid on the table, and a vote then taken directly on Byington's blackguard proposition, which wal body but the brutal mover and somebody na voting for it. Mr. Gordon then offered a res( ing Byington for his unprovoked insult to the the house ; and Byington himself offered a lot z an ar Fust g fund in dispute. On Wednesday morning, at t ur (Sir G.

THE CHINESE NAVY.—From the latest Pekin Gazettes, we perceive that much interest exists in the Imperial Cabinet on the subject of constructing ships of war after foreign mo dels. It appears that Kin Yinglin, one of the miristers, laid • drawings of ships of sundry forms before his Majesty, ac companied by strong recommendations for an increased number of efficient lighting ships. Upon this the Emperor sends all the drawings to Yihshan, at Canton, ordering him to have vessels constructed, if he considered Kin Yinglin's plans the most feasible. Yihshan, in a very long memorial, shows that no kinds of vessels are at all proper for lighting, except those constructed after foreign models. He speaks of the wonderful reports of the high officers of the United States ships Constellation and Boston, during their visit at Whampoa, arid proposes that they be the models of all Chinese ships of war hereafter to be built. The Emperor, therofore, orders ships to be built of the kind recommended, and of the best materials. His Majesty also states, that as the ships are non' needed there will not be time to wait for them to be built, but orders Yihshan to send the Hong merchants to buy the ships which the barbarians may have for sale, and at the same time to despatch proper officers to purchase the strongest materials possible for ship-building. Yihshan states, in his memorial, that one ship after the foreign model has been built at Canton, and which is able to t to sea. and t at two more AFPGIIANISTAN.—Arnong the numer ous trophies from the recent seat of war in the east, one of the most curious that has yet reached us is a bear (ursus Thibetanus) lately presented to the Surrey Zoological Gardens by Captain Alexander. It was captured while quite a cub by an officer of the 45th in the celebrated Khyber Pass. The only other individual of this species that has been seen alive in this country was a tenant of the Tower m enagery, about 18 years ago, and was afterwards sent to the King of Holland. It is the rarest of the ursine family, and differs in many important respects from its congeners, having a remarkably thick neck, flat head, and large ears. The claws are particularly weak, and not more than half the length of those of the other two species of bears known it India. The conformation of the body is heavy and massive clothed with a thick close fur of a glossy jet black in all parts, except a most singular-looking white patch under the throat, exactly resembling in shape the letter Y.

It appears that each party occupied a small piece of land belonging to his Grace the Duke of Northumberland, and had been at Rothbury, on the day in question, for the purpose of paying their rents, when, at a little past ten o'clock, they set off to gether to proceed homewards, accompanied by a young man named George Brown, and two others ; and, when passing over a place called Garley Moor, about a mile and a half from. Rothbury, the murder was effected by Hindhaugh drawing from his pocket a large clasp knife and instantly plunging it into the body of his victim. At the same time the brutal ruffian made an attempt upon the life of Brown,who escaped, as it were, by a miracle, he having received a dreadful stab on the haunch, which penetrated quite to the bone. P oor Weatherston expired almost immediately afterwards. An in quest was held at Rothbury on Monday, when a verdict of wilful murder was returned against Hindhaugh.—Newcastle Journal. MELANCHOLY AFFAIR.—Mr. Isaac Neate, a farmer, living at Cherhill, stands committed to the New Prison, charged with the manslaughter of James Cleverley, under the following circumstances :—On Thursday the 2th instant, Mr. Neate attended Devizes market and returned home in the evening intoxicated. Having been informed of some misconduct on the part of a lad in his employ, he gave him a beating. The boy went home and told his parents, upon which his father (the deceased James Cleverley) went to en quire the cause, when Mr. Neate, without receiving any pro• vocation, attacked him with a large stick, and beat him about the head in a dreadful manner. He was able with assistance to reach his house, where he received the best medical atten dance, but after lingering for some days he died. On ex examination the skull was found to be fractured, and a por tion of the bone driven into the brain. A Coroner's inquest was held, and after a long enquiry, a verdict of "Man slaughter" was returned, and Mr. Neate was committed under the coroner's warrant to take his trial at the next as sizes.— friltahire Independent. MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.—On Tuesday morning Chelmsford was thrown into a state of great excitement by the discovery that Elizabeth Bence, the wife of Edmund Bence, a printer in the office of Messrs. Chalk and Co., of this town, had attempted self-destruction ; and the further discovery that an infant child of the unfortunate woman was lying lifeless in .bed. As usual, the most extravagant ru mours were immediately in circulation, attributing the death of the child to other than natural means; but the evidence upon the inquest cleaily proved that the cause of the child's death was perfectly natural. It appears that the husband of the unfortunate woman, who resides about a mile from the town, on the Baddow road, returned from his work on Mon day night, about twelve o'clock ; but upon reaching home found the door closed, which he sometimes afterwards forced ; and upon proceeding up stairs the unfortunate wo- vered ly , or rather sitting by the side of rorn several wounds which she iicied on her throat and arm with a razor and carvit knife, which lay near her. A considerable quantity of bfoo'd had flowed from her wounds into an utensil which she had placed, and which was three quarters full. A messenger was immediately despatched for Mr. King, surgeon, upon whose arrival it was discovered that one of two infants, about six months of age, lying in bed, was lifeless. The unfortunate woman was in a fainting, insensible state, and was not, we understand, aware of the infant's decease until Wednesday morning, when it was communicated to her. She has now three children living, and has always been upon terms of the greatest affection with her husband, who, we believe, is ex ceedingly attached to his unhappy partner. We are informed that a slight disagreement took place on Monday between a member of the husband's family and Mrs. Bence; but at present we have heard no reason for the inducement of the rash act.—Essex Standard. HORRIBLE ATTEMPT OF A SON TO POISON PARENTS, BROTHERS, AND SISTERS.-011 Sunday morning last the family of Mr. Chester White, a highly respectable and wealthy farmer, residing about one and a half miles east of the village of Batavia, were suddenly taken ill, exhibiting all the symptoms of poison. On Saturday a bag was brought home from the mill and placed in the barn. Subsequently, it was brought into the house, and a quantity taken sufficient for two loaves of bread, which were used for breakfast. On Sunday morning, about two hours after, all who partook of the bread were taken violently ill. The family consisted of Mr. White, his wife, and father, three sons and live daughters, and a hired man, all of whom were sick, except one son, aged seventeen, who, it was ascertained, had not eaten of the bread. After a lapse of some hours, Dr. Cores was called, who pronounced the sickness to have been produced by poison. lie applied the usual remedies, and, at nine o'clock on Monday morning, they were all alive, and considered out of danger, although still leering severely from the effects of the poison. Suspicion became attached to the young man who had not eaten of the bread, and upon being confronted, he confessed that on Saturday he procured two ounces of arsenic at a drug store in the village, and placed it in the mouth of the bag, but would assign no reason for this at tempt to murder his whole family. No cause can be as signed, except that his family have recently become pious, and united with the church, and have made great efforts to induce him to attend church and family worship, all of which he has treated with contempt, and would always absent him self during family exercise. He has, of late, been gloomy arid taciturn, and probably thought, could he accomplish his design, be would be rid of their importunities and inherit his father's estate. He had not been arrested on Monday morn ing., out of compassion for the feelings of his family, who were in the deepest distress.—Rochester Democrat, Feb. 22. :t God had Witnes. -1 believe so. le Lord Mayor they can order naethir postmaster father, in ci I two letters, ly to b hen destr, Lascars s beard tributed among the winners A Mr; Conatty has foul at cards.

TAVISTOCK ELECTION.—The nomination of candidates for the seat for Tavistock, vacated by Mr. John Rundle, the banker, who retires, took place on I Wednesday. Mr. John Salisbury Trelawney was proposed, as one of, a whig family of a high character and resident in the neighbourhood. Mr. Henry Vincent, the complete-sufb .agist, was alsoi.proposed. The polling took place on Thurs day, when Mx. Trelawney was returned by a majority of 44 over Mr. Vincent. The body of the Poor-law Collector of Duleek, in the county of Math, was found ye sterday in a ditch in the neigh bourhood of that village. He. had been stoned toideath, and a considerable sum of money, was found upon his person—so that plunder was evidently not the object of his murderers. He had issued several summonses for arrears of poor-rates, for the next petty sessiotis, and this was the cause of his death. He was a perso r of excellent character.—Dublin Mail.

The com missioners were the Rev. Chancellor Martin, the Dean of Exeter, and Archdeacon Barnes. The pi oceeding was under the recent act for the improvement of church discipline, and the object was to ascertain if there was such a prirnd facie case as to warrant ulterior proceedings. After the evidence had been adduced, the rev. chancellor said they were satisfied that Mr. Martin bad not been guilty of anything intentionally culpable. He was satisfied the father of the young man, in instituting the proceedings, was not actuated by any vindic tive motive, and he recommended the parties to avail them selves of the 6th clause of the act, and to submit the whole matter to the bishop. This was accordingly agreed to. — Exeter paper. - - - . THE SILK R OB BERY.—MANCHESTER, WEDNESDAY.— This morning the two prisoners, Edwin and Nathaniel Lucas, who stand charged with being conderned in several very ex tensive robberies in and about this town, were again brought up at the New Bailey, before Messrs. D. Maude, J. Barker, and T. Townend, for further examination. The only witness whose testimony was not already before the court was a per son name d Willi a m Hesketh ; he deposed,—" I reside at Burton-upon -Trent, Irwell, and keep a public-house. On Tuesday, the 17th of May last, three men came to my house about half-past 10 o'clock at night. They called for some ale, which I filled for them. They had with them a spring cart, drawn by one horse. Two of them came into the house and the carter stood at the door. I cannot swear that either of the prisoners was of the party ; but I thi n k N a th an i e l i s m one of the en who came into the house. I had some sus picion and went out to examine the cart, and found the sheet was bound down by a log of wood. I had but a very inferior opportunity of seeing them, but I think the prisoner Natha niel i s one o f th em ." The whole of the deposition was then read over ; and after some deliberation the prisoners were both committed to take their trial at the next Liverpool Assizes. On the application of Mr. Monk, who defended the prisoners, Nathaniel was admitted to bail. MANCHESTER.—We are gratified to be enabled to say, that the favourable account we gave of trade last week is im proved rather than otherwise, and that a large amount of business was done on Tuesday, at full prices, in all widths of printing cloth. Wide cloths are in good demand, at an ad vance even upon last week's rates, and most of the manufac turers are fully engaged for a month, and some six weeks; 27-inch cloth is also improved,, and full 3d. per piece is easily obtained upon prices current a fortnight ago. Domestic cloth is also better to sell, and we have conversed with one or two manufacturers of this cloth, that tell us they have a more legitimate trade than. they have had for three or four years, and at paying prices. We also learn that, in several parts of this district, mills that have been stopping for some time are again about to commence. Our townsmen, Messrs. Leese, Kershaw, and Co, we hear, have taken Messrs. Carr's mills, of Stockport, and they will employ a number of hands. We hope that the manufacturers are now making money, for the raw material is now lower than ever, and goods are 3d. to 6d. higher than they were at the lowest point; so we hope that the manufacturers, instead of reducing the wages of their hands, will do their best to increase them, for the workpeopl e are miserably paid. The yarn trade ; w e are sorry to say, is not so good, and the manufacturers are better off than spin ners, although some numbers in yarns are ready of sale. 27-inch power-loom printers may be quoted-96's, 4s. 91c1. to 4s. 101 d. ; and 72's, 4s. 103 d. to ss. 3d. Hand-loom cloth is also in good demand, and 3 lb. to 70's are easily sold at 3s. 4 id. — Manchester Advertiser. BARBAROUS MURDER.—Even on the eve of our Assizes. and at the conclusion of that of the South Riding, an atro cious and brutal murder has been perpetrated in our Riding. The scene of murder is a beautiful valley surrounded by hills tillageable to their very summits. The cabin in which the dark deed was done is verging on the road size, and such was its appearance that at first sight we supposed it to be a hovel for pigs. Into thi s d en t h e d ecease d P a t r i c k Ti erney entered, for the purpose of smo ki ng his pipe —(as it is represented). The woman of the house, her two small children, and a girl named Grady, about eleven years of age, were within; hut the owner of the house was out to visit a neighbour. After some time a young man named Messgil, living about twenty perches distance — enters—sits down—smokes with the de voted Tierney—and then retires. Almost immediately after a number of men came into the cabin, ordered Tierney on his knees, and broke in his skull with sticks, stones, and spades. The unfortunate being's forehead was smashed and his brains burst out. The woman swears that she ran and hid herself and her children under the bed. That she did not hear the murderers or the murdered say anything beyond " Tierney go on your knees," and "I am off." In one place she lints in the plea of darkness, as a reason for her not hearing what happened. She also puts in the plea of terror. What was the crime for which Tierney was sacrificed? On the 25th ultirao, be was fi re d at (as he swore) within one hundred yards of the spot at w hi ch he subsequently met his fate. Two balls perforated his hat ; and for that attempt on his life, two men named Michael Larkin and Thomas Gleeson, were com mitted to stand their trial at the present assizes.—Nenagls net n4,-7;.."

The report which we have to make to-day differs in no respect from that of this day week. The trade moves slowly on, 110 activity is perceptible, and prices continue gradually to decline. At this day's market best new Wheats arc offered Id to 2d, secon dary qualities and old 2d to 3d, per 70 lbs lower, without inducing anything beyond a mere retail business. Flour slow of sale, and Is per sack cheaper. The late supply of Oats and Oatmeal has quite overstocked the market : the former are fully Id per bushel, the latter 6d, to I s per load, cheaper, with scarcely any enquiry for either. Beans slow of sale, at a reduction of Is per quarter. Malt steady, at late prices. LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, MARCH 20 We have had rather a short supply of Beasts and Sheep at this day's market, but quite equal to the demand, awl prices remaining steady at last week's quotations. Prime Beef 5d to Lid; middling and inferior 4d to 4icl ; Bulls 3d to 30 ; prime Wethers aid to tid ; middling and inferior sd, sinking the offal. Beasts, 814 ; Sheep, LIVERPOOL, PROVISION MARKET, MARCH 20. The stock of dry Butter is now entirely in the hands of specu lators, who ask, but are not able freely to obtain, au advance in prices of about 2s per cwt. No pickled Butter in the market ; neither is there a greater quantity in Cork, than some two or three hundred firkins, for which, we understand, 85s on board is demanded. Prime heavy Beef has become very scarce, and may be quoted at an advance of ss. per tierce. Real prime Pork is also fully as dear, and in fair demand. Inferior Provisions both old and new, continue a drug. Considerable gloom, we regret to say, has overshadowed our market, in consequence of the tem porary stoppage of a highly respectable house, which for the last thirty years, has been extensively engaged in the Provision trade in this town. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCH 17. A fair enquiry for Cotton again to-day ; about 4 , 000 bales have been sold at full market prices. The week's sales amount to 27,060 bales, of which 3,300 American are placed to specu lation account, and 400 for exportation. COTTON MARKET, MARCH 20 - - The demand for Cotton continues daily to a fair extent, and though the market is well supplied, and wears a quiet aspect, we cannot quote prices lower since the immense import of last week ; nevertheless buyers can transact their business more to their minds, owing to the fact of having more choice laid before them. On Saturday 5000 bales were sold, (100 on speculation.) aud to day 5000 more, entirely to the trade. Speculators are buzzing about making inquiries and feeling their way, with a view to get in well, but have not been able to accomplish it. COTTON M A RKET.—WEEKLY REPORT. The import this week has been unprecedentedly h eav y ; the trade, however, have purchased to a fair extent, but a much better assort ment of American having been bought forward, particularly (luring the last day or two, previous prices are barely supported. Brazil and Egyptian are id to id lower, and Surat is very heavy of sale at last week's rates. Speculators have taken 3300 American, and Exporters 400 American.

We continue to be very liberally supplied with Oats and Oatmeal, in addition to a moderate quantity of Wheat and Flour from Ireland within the past three days ; whilst the arrivals coastwise are limited, and we have no grain fresh in from abroad. The uniformly dull reports repeated from various parts of the kingdom continue to suspend all active operations in any branch of the trade, and render our millers perfectly in different as to the purchase of anything beyond the pressing wants of the moment : the business transacted between Tuesday and to-day has consequently been of the most tri vial character, prices during that time appearing little better than nominal. At this day's market we had rather more inquiry for fo reign Wheat, particularly the middling and lower qualities, the sales of which, however, appeared to be confined to our local millers, having still scarcely any demand from distant buyers; but even in these, or in any description of English or Irish, the business done was upon a very moderate scale, and without any quotable variation from the general cur rency of our last circular. Home-made, Irish, and Foreign Flour, restricted to a slow, gradual demand, barely sustained late prices. Barley and Malt ruled in much the same state as last noted ; and Beans, as well as Pease, were very unsaleable at a decline of Is. per qr. Having several Yorkshire dealers in attendance to-day, directing their attention to Oats and Oatmeal, a few cargoes of the former were taken at an abatement of ld. per 451bs. from the rates of Tuesday ; and the latter, although not in lively request, was dispo3,4l of with rather levy difficulty on the terms then stated. s. d. s. d. 60 0 —7O 0 50 0 —55 0 ASHES Montreal, Pot, Pearl, new .
