GENERAL _INTELLIGENCE. MURDER IN ComcwALL.—James Halman, a labourer in Cornwall, has been committed for the murder of his wife. He seems to have beaten her on the head with the poll-end of a hatchet, and thrust her under the grate ; where the body lay when Halman called in some neigh bours. He pretended that his wife, while drunk, threw a hatchet at him ; in retaliation, he pushed her, and she fell under the grate. But the hatchet was found concealed in a wall; mid the cuts on the woman showed that she had been violently assailed. Scorcn WnissEr.—At a meeting in Wick, on the Ist instant, Mr. Dunn, excise-officer, stated that there were five distilleries in Caithness which annually manufactured 80,000 gallons of whiskey, all for home consumption, at a cost of £40,000, or £5,000 more than the assessed rental of the country in 1815, or about half the real rental at present. He believed the population of the country was about 38,000, which would on an average give two gallons to every man, woman, and child. But as the children could not use the whiskey, and as the ladies, of course, never polluted their lips with the poison, there must be a good share to some people.—Edinburgh Witness. PETITIONS to parliament in favour of juvenile reforma tion have been extensively signed by the magistrates of the Gloucestershire court of quarter sessions. - MORE CONVENT FIRES.—TNVO fresh attempts have been made to fire the Popish nunnery in Dighton-street, Bristol, to which twice already fire has been wilfully set. The circumstances under which these attempts have been made leave no doubt that the incendiary is within the walls. The Echo, of Valparaiso, says that the electric telegraph company have been compelled temporarily to abandon their works, owing to the opposition of the country people, who cut the wires, under the belief that the telegraph was an invention of the devil's, an d affected their hopes of salvation. AT EDINBURGH, a few days ago, Professor Anderson gave his audience a speciylnen how the juggle of table rapping may be perfornrad. After making the spirit enclosed within a hollow table obedient to his behests, to the satisfaction of his audience, he removed the top of the table, and exhibited the said mysterious agent, which consisted of a small '„lammer similar to those which beat the hours on our '.locks, and which was under the influ ence of a galvani.e battery, connected to it by a wire con ducted along Vac floor from beneath the stage. MAY AliD - DRCEMBER.—A wealthy spinster, well known to the neighbourhood of lloniton, and verging on the period xviich the Psalmist records as the duration of 'hu man existence, having spent the whole of her years in single 'blessedness, appears at last to have been overtaken by the sly rogue Cupid. A youthful tutor of three and twenty summers attracted a heart heretofore impervious "to 'the soft nothings of 'the sterner sex, and on Thursday lstst, after a courtsip lin the lady's part of some duration, fue bonds of hymen were entwined in the presence of a large company, who attended in carriages to give e'cliit to the nuptial ceremony, and who had been invited by the bride to a thgeuner a la .fourchette, which was laid out with a profusion that might have been expected from the well-known habits of the lady ; and consisted, we are in formed, of half alowl and about three pounds of cold beef. How the party 'fared may, perhaps, be more easily ima gined than deseribed.—Exeter Flying Past. BRANDY rEOX BEETROOT. — The experiment of ex tracting brandy from beetroot has just been successfully tried in this country ; and with a restilt that cannot fall to be attended with the most signal success.—Leeds Reporter. EXTRIOREINA.RY INCREASE Or PAUPERISM. —:The high price of provisions, and the wantoflabour, has during the past wrek caused an increase •of pauperism, in the parish of St. Pancras, wholly and entirely unprecedented. There are et this time on the pariih books no less a num ber receiving relief, in and out of the workhouse, than 10,465 persons, and yet the poor Tate is only 50. in the pound for the present half year. The increase in out-door poor in one week, consequent on the late snow and frost, has been 'upwards of 2,000. A DISTRESSING SCENE occurred in Lambeth Church on Sunday forenoon. The Rev. V. D. James, the senior curate, was reading the morning service, when, on getting almost to the end of the Litany, a sudden scream was heard, and in an instant afterwards the rev. gentleman fell:in his desk, apparently bait. The Rev. Mr. Eason:, his brother curate, ran to his assistance, and after -some time he recovered sufficiently'-to be removed to his own residence. An apoplectic et,' it is presumed, was the - cause of Ure rev. gentleman's attn.*. A FLEXIBLE FIGURE.—The most ingenious and origi nal inventions seem always 'destined to plunge their in ventors into difficulties. At - the Great Exhibition oflBsl 'there were few specimens of mechanical contrivance 'which attracted more curious interest that Count Dunin's-steel "` model of a man," with;its 7,000 springs, wheels, , and :laminte so deftly combined - that, by turning a handle, the figure could be expanded to the dimensions of a giant, or wound down into the dithinutive proportions of a dwarf, -and yet preserve a perfect symmetry .among its various :parts and limbs. Tire expenses attending this intricate :machine, and other contrivimees of a like character, have, ; however, resulted in making the inventor a bankrupt, an -adjudication having been pronounced against him on-Mon -day, in Bashinghall-street, London. His liabilities are stated to be considerable,r6biefly upon bills of -exchange. The count, it was then -said, had disappeared, and the only :nssets discoverable consisted of some furniture, and this -:was claimed by a single , creditor under a bill of sale. SEAMEN'S WAGES.—A difference has just .arisen be *.tween the seamen of Abefdeen and their employers on the ' the score of wages. The men, who have been - receiving -. £4i per month, now demand £4 10s., and ed. per ton for ballast ; and owners,-rather than accede to these terms, have paid off PATlSPrinpncp, - there -is scarcely a vessel in the harbour manned. A meeting ~ a f sea-going carpenters W2S held on Monday, when at least some of that class -joined the seamen's movement, and consequently pledged themselves not to take thoplace ®f the latter. Should this , state of matters continue, it is ::not difficult to see what the result may be, and espetially .-who must be the greatest- , Kafferers ; but it is to be hoped 'that better influences will • prevail.—Aberdeen Herald. THE WAGES MOVEMENT TN TIIE WEST.—The agitation. favour of an increase in -the amount of wages, conse quent on the high price of - provisions, is not yet settled -in the west of England. At Sturminster-Marshall the Whole of the agricultural labourers struck for an advance ta few days since. The farmers met together, and, after 'consultation, agreed to give the men an additional Is. per week. In the parish of riddletown, in Somerset, the Attempt to obtain an advancOby the agricultural labourers assumed a most riotous character. About 44) men went in a , bedy to Waterson farm, in the occupation of M. James Harding, and endeavoured to get the labourers there -to .join them in making a demand on that person for an in crease of wages. They failed, however, to disaffect the men towards their master, one , of them declaring that he was perfectly satisfied with his wages. In spite of this they went to Mr. Harding, and demanded that he should payliis men as another farmer, -named Geag•o, had pro mised to do—namely, to give them 12s. per week. This Mr.' Harding refused to comply ovith, and it was only hy threatening to send for the pollee that he got rid of them. Warrants were subsequently issued for the apprehension of the principal offenders, and one of the ringleaders has since 'been committed for trial. .At Exeter, the Town Council have determined on givingfthe police force of that city an,adiEtion of 2s. per week to their present wages., which are-new 18s. This arrangement, however, is only intended-to he continued during the 'existence of the pre sent high prices of provisions. NEW Cauncn AT READING, BREXE.—In the centre of the Castle Hill estate, fronting the BAth-road, in Read ing, a plot of ground had been apportioned by the original proprietor of ^the property, for a square, which was sur rounded 'by &very handsome iron palisading, with large gates at each corner. The land having been recently pur chased for the Conservative Land Society, the executive committee have decided that the ground :in the centre of the square shall be given for the erection of a new church, the increasing population of Reading rendering the gift very useful and beneficial to the locality. This is the second grant of land for the building of a church by the Conservative Land Society, THE RUSSELL INSTITUTION IN GREAT CORAX-STREET, LONDON, has sought to be exonerated from, parish rates, under the Parochial Assessments Act, as being 'instituted for the purposes of literature, science, and the , fine arts exclusively." After hearing arguments in the Queen's Bench on Wednesday, Lord Campbell gave judgment against the institution. He noticed that newspapers were taken in there, that politics were studied as well asseience, and a magazine .or ,Bradshuw's Railway Guide found more readers than " Newton's Principia." The objects of the establishment were highly laudable, and its utility treat ; but it was not entitled ;to exemption from the or ,dinary parochial burdens. MURDER IN DEAN FOREST. -At shocking murder has 'been committed in the township .of West Dean, a black smith, named Henry Jones, haying fallen by the hand of a man of the same name. The deceased had, after finish ing his day's work, been drinking at a public-house, called the British Lion, and left that pjaee of entertainment about eleven o'clock for his home. He had got within a short distance of his home, when the prisoner met him and accused him of waylaying him in the highway for the purpose of robbing him. The deceased (Waled that he had any such intention, and blows followed between the parties, when the 'prisoner drew a knife from his pocket and plunged it into the deceased's abdomen, causing his bowels to protrude to the length of three or four feet. The groans of the wounded man were heard by his wife at her cottage, and he was taken home, where the surgeon was promptly in attendance, but the deceased died in a few hours afterwards, the intestines having also been cut. The coroner's jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against Henry Jones, who was committed for trial at Gloucester Assizes. HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.—EXTRAORDINAY CURE OF A BAD Lao.—Mr. John Allen, of No. 17, Denmark street, Leicester, was afflicted with a bad foot for three years, during which time he was under medical treatment without obtaining any relief, or even mitigation to his sufferings. He was strongly recommended to have his foot amputated ; but this operation he positively objected to, and, after lingering for some time longer in dreadful agony, he commen:ed using Holloway's Ointment and Pills, and, by continuing these in valuable medicines for a comparatively short period, he was completely cured, and his foot is now as sound as ever. Ile, therefore, recommends these remedies to others similarly afflicted. ASTHMA and BRONCHITIS have for years puzzled the most eminent of the Faculty. In Hooper's Physician's Pocket Book, edited by Ryan, it is acknowledged that no treat ment then known hid been successful; such is still the opinion of many. A substance new to the profession has, however, been introduced (Brande's Bronchial Sedative) which has been successful in many cases of a most obstinate character, in confirmation of which we quote the following importqnt medical testimonial by M. Michea, recently pub lished in the Repertoire de Pharmacie, Paris :—" I have frequently taken occasion to exhibit this substance in cases of bronchitis, chronic catarrh, pulmonary phthisis, asthma, and other affections of the chest. I must say I have derived highly favourable results from its application. The action which this medicine exercises upon the respiratory organs seems to he both stimulating and sedative; it abates the violence of the cough, and diminishes or relieves altogether the oppression of the chest, by facilitating expectoration. I feel even inclined to believe that it exercises a special action (and such as no other remedy is known to exercise) upon the respiratory organs. Some facts that have come under my personal notice have convinced me that Lange was perfectly justified in his assertion that it stops the spitting of blood and arrests the formation of pulmonary tubercles. It can be obtained through any chemist or medicine vendor in the of the gouts for Breade's Some' United iiingclem, or Cof any SHIPPING AND MERCANTILE MISCELLANY. THE ADMIRALTY have commissioned another screw ship of the line, the James Watt, of 91 guns and 600 horse-power, and it is said that there is some intention of building an immense screw line-of-battle-ship, capable of carrying 250 guns. NEW STEAM-SHIP. — The new steamer William Norris, which is to make the passage to Europe in five or six days, is rapidly approaching completion. Her outside is nearly finished. This vessel is simply fiat and sharp, with a good model for running fast in smooth water. She is made unusually strong, by having her timbers strapped diagonally with bars of iron, and by an iron kelson ex tending from the keel to the deck, excepting in the central part of the vessel devoted to the engine. This kelson is composed of two parallel sheets of iron near half an inch in thickness, less than a foot apart, and so fashioned and connected as to form a water-tank. On either side of this kelson are big kelsons, formed in the same manner, also connecting with the deck. It is expected that these unusual supports will give such an amount of strength and solidity to the steamer as to make her excel all other vessels of similar dimensions. We are bound to speak with diffidence in the . presence of scientific naval architects, but our conviction is, that no more strength is gained by this construction than would be by expending a fourth part of the money in a fabric of proper wooden supports. The Arctic exploring vessels and the New foundland sealers have shown conclusively that wooden structures are fully adequate to all demands upon their powers of resistance, and these are as great as any to which any sea-going craft can be subjected. Indeed, we doubt if wood and iron in the combinations on board the William Norris will prove to be so effectual for strength as either used by itself. But the main thing to be tested in this vessel, is not her ability to resist the wind and waves of the Atlantic, which she is very likely to do suc cessfully, but her model. If she does not prove too flat and to draw too little water to be a good or safe sea-boat, it will be a new experience in naval architecture.—New York Tribune.. Tns IlimemAy.L—The colossal screw steam-ship Hima laya sailed from Southampton, on Friday week, with the India and China mails. She took out about ninety passengers, specie to the value of £155,000, and about 200 tons of cargo. Her commander is Captain Kellock, an ahle and experienced officer. At half-past two the mails were put on board and given in charge to Lieut. La Touche, R.N., the Admiralty agent, The Himalaya was then lying at the north-western side of the dock, with her bowsprit and jibboon towering fifty feet oYer,tfie dock quay, in an oppo site direction from the mouth - ct the dock. Immediately after the mails were on board a powerful - steam-tug took her in tow, and, after immense and continuous efforts, the huge ship'was brought round, and towed carefully and slowly nut of the dock, her immense screw assisting. in the operation, and causing by its "movements a gigantic whirlpool around the ship's stern. The pilot, who had the command of her from Southampton to the Needles, was on the'gangway gesticulating-convulsively, or scream ing through a monster speaking4rumpet, while officers were stationed at all part. of the ship repeating or inter preting his orders. The . great -ship appeared perfectly manageible, and was turned sharply round from . the docks 'to the Itchen River by means of warps and the steaxn4ug, when her enormous 'length winded gracefully along the serpent-like channel 'which leads to the South. ampton Water. The Himalaya drew about eighteen feet of water forward, and about *twenty feet aft, as .she left Sottthampton. Four men were stationed at the wheel. The sideboard in the grand saloon cost 600 guineas, and is the handsomest sideboard afloat. The fitting up of the ladies' saloon cost £7OO. The panels in the dining saloon are covered with exquigite ;paintings of fruits and flowers. , very patent invention for the improvement or adornment 'of steam-packets has been introduced into the Himalaya. The cabins are ventilated by invisible means; beautifid. -window curtains ascend and descend by the touch of -spring : the port-Wes have double sash irindows. At tached to the surgeon's cabin is an apothecaries' shop. The officers and crew number nearly NO persons, the largest number ever'employed in a merchant ship. .Such is the enormous size of the Himalaya, that if the until of the ship in which 'Columbus discovered America -were slung at her stern, she might almost pass for • one of her boats. THE RED JADZEE, NEW AMERICAT'CLIPPER.---Capt. Elridge (late captain of the steam-yacht North Star, and of the packet-ship Rc*citts), arrived in the 'Mersey on Tuesday afternoon, after an unprecedented rttn oft 3 days, one hour, and 25 minutes, having left • New York on the 11th inst.

The proposed regulations, as sketched by the 'American paper, are in some degree copied from our merchant seamen's act, the mercantile marine act, and other recent enact meats for the discipline of the merchant navy of England; but the proiisions of the American; law 'promise to be much more-stringent than those of this country. Many of our seamen have thoughtlessly threatened - to betake them selves to the' United States, under an ini - sion that they would be subject to less restraint in the American than in • the English service. We have frequently told them that they would...fuul their error should they - try the experi ment. Let us also remind them that, in the United States, thereis a public prosecutor appointed to enforce the law against seamen ; it is not there, as with us, left to the '• option of a shipowner or a commander to prosecute offences. —ShippingGazette. RATS inoll 1). - -Nstatement made tithe mate of the Dewdrop, of .Whitby, which was ;vrecked at Arbroath on Wednesday sc'unight, would seem to -confirm the pro verb, that " Rats do leave da.ngerous places." He says the vessel had for a long time been infested with thou sands of rats, but, on the night before they left Hartle pool on the present fatal voyage, the.vermin disappeared, not a rat being seen where a day before they might have been counted •by the dozen. REMOVAL Ali. GOODS IN Bosn.—lt has lately been proposed at the-Customs that firms :who have frequently to give securitytfor the removal of goods id bond from one port to another-Should give one general bond, instead of specific bonds, as heretofore. The Customs' :Reform Com mittee, however, have published a statement furnished them by Mr. Morgan, their secretary, to the effect that 'the plan will open the door to fraudulent-clearances by ,any person who may be disposed to clear his goods on the -security of another person's bond, besides being liable to , other grave objections. It is contended, therefore, that the existing system should not be altered, except by re . ducing the price of the bond stamp, and substituting a uniform charge of a shilling " for the presentAdiculous graduated scale." The motive for the attempted altera tionls not known, as it is believed there weremo com plaints against the practice of giving bonds in each case. THE COAL AND IRON TEADE.—The coal trade continues unabated in vigour, and unparalleled in its, demand, and •everything that is drawn out of the pits ;hi the, shape :of coal as cleared off with great avidity. The frost is so far gone that the boats find little difficulty in travelling upon the canals. Good ironstone isin great request, and continues very scarce. The iron trade was never in amore healthy condition than at present. The equilibrium seems now to be more than establishetlibe tween the make of pigs and their conversion into maim faetured-iron, which circumstance has given a firmer-tone to the pig traCe. The extension of mills and forges one ,of the causes of this healthy state of-ti - dnge. The number of furnaces now at work in South Staffordshire is 123, and the weekly make neatly 13;000 tons. The quan tity of puddling furnaces in East Worcestershire and South Staffordshire is 1,600, and the total quantity of pigs worked .up i about 16,000 tons, giving 3,000 •tons more used in manufacture than in the make of pigs. This circumstance, if it continues, will , necessarily keep up ;the price of tAgs and. of Worerhanzpton Herald. SPORTING _INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.—TnUR6DAT.

Sto 1 was offered against King Tam, and 13 to 1 taken to a pony about Dervish. Af.ARKE'TS FOR MANUFACTURES. • MANCHESTEX.—The accounts from America at the be ginning of the week having again brought reports of lower prices for cotton, and the uncertainty that exists of the peace of Europe being maintained, caused considerable dulness in this market, which has since continued without alleviation. For yarns, in most icttances prices about id below the rates of last week would be aecepted. India yarns have not been in much request, and no better can be said of mule yarns, for the German market, which have also been very quiet, Manu facturers continue to exercise much circusmpection, and are not by any means extensive purchasers. The demand for all descriptions of goods has been very limited, by which buyers are placed in a somewhat more favourable position; find at the same time, only a slight advantage can be marked. ROCHDALE.—The wool market remains inactive, but prices continue firm. LEEDS.—At our Cloth-halls on Tuesday there was much less business done than on theprevious Saturday. There has, however, been a very large quantity of goods sold by commis. sion hands, out of the halls, and, with the deliveries to order, have made up a full average business this week. Business has been rather dull in the warehouses. BRADFORD.--Wool: The uncertainty of political events has the effect of adding to the previous dulness, wool for some time having been held for prices too high to induce the spin ners to buy. Noils and brokes are dull, and but few making : Yarns : The spinners find great difficulty in keeping their works employed four days per week, and the raw material being held for prices inconsistent with the price of yarns, there seems no hope of anything except further curtailment. Prices : The period is now drawing near when greater activity is usually manifested by the home trade houses for spring. Up to this time there has been but little preparation made, the merchants generally holding a very small stock, and the transactions to-day are not distinguishable either by increased sales or altered prices. NOTTINGHAIII.—The condition of the lace trade is not so satisfactory as we had reason to hope it would be, judging by experience of the quantity of business done iii this month for many years past, which has generally been a season when great activity has usually been experienced. A few fancy ar ticles are inquired for, but these principally from entirely new designs. The hosiery trade is also much less active than at this time last year. Some few houses are busy, but the generality of them are flat. The high price of provisions is acting disadvantsteously to the i otereete Of COM m rce through put the Country, PACKET LIST.

LIVERPOOL, JAN. 27.—1 n the absence of any important buyers from the interior at this morning's market, and having only a moderate attendance of the local trade, we ex perienced a languid inquiry for wheats of all detcriptions, and where sales have been effected a reduction of 24 to 3d per bushel has been submitted to. The transactions in flour are on an equally limited scale, at a decline of Gd to 94 per barrel, more especially with regard to parcels landing from The ship; Spanish and other sack flour Is to 2s cheaper. Barley in fair request, and fully supports recent quotatiins. Beans remain without change in value, but difficult to proceed-with beyond retail quantity. Oats and Oatmeal are a slow sale at Tues day's prices. The inquiry for Indian corn continues un abated, and we note prices of all kinds of yellow Is per qr. higher than in the early part of the week; white corn is also slightly enhanced in value. Since our last report the Feather has been variable, but generally mild, and for the wheat plant, as well as for the culture of the soil, favourable. BRITISH. FOREIGN. Wheat, v 70th., s. d. s. d.
