TIM MURDER OF MR. LITTLE. FURTHER PARTICULARS. On Friday, as on the day previous, a large crowd as- sembled in the neighbourhood of Capel-street Police-office, for the purpose of seeing the prisoner, Spollen, who it - ins expected would bebrought upfor examination. Thie opinion was strengthened by Mr. F. T. Porter takirnh, leis seat on the bench with Mr. O'Donnell. The creeed remained in the streets, and the police-office confirmed to be filled with anxious expectants up to three o'cleek, when the magistrates rose. Shortly after this time information was conveyed to them that the Crown was t clay to bring up the prisoner for preliminary examination. The magistrates appointed four o'clock for the purpose,, and gave orders that the court should be kept clear of all, persons save the reporters of the public press, and other persons whose business required them to be present. The news that the prisoner was about to be brought before the magistrates spread rapidly, and as the hour of four o'clock approached, the streets became again crowded, and the persons who had left the places whCh tkey had occupied during the day in the police court vainly sought re-admittance ; but the police were inexorable, and the magistrates' orders were rigidly carried out. Shortly before four o'clock the prisoner was removed from the cell which he occupied in Frederick-lane police station house since Wednesday last, and was conveyed in cus tody of two policemen to a cab which was in readiness at the door to receive him. At this time a large crowd of persons had collected in the lane adjoining the, station-house and as the prisoner presented himself nothing could, exceed the efforts which were made by the people assembled to get a good view of him. When the cab drove off, the crowd followed, and as it was proceeding down Bolton-street to the Police-office, it was stopped by a constable, who told the persons in charge of the prisoner to convey him back from whence he came, as the magistrates lied postponed the examination to the next day at eleven o'clock. While this message was being delivered, the cab was hedged in on all sides by an eager crowd, anxious to get a view of the prisoner's face through the windows of the cab. In this they were disappointed, as he wore a cap, the peak of which he kept pulled down, by which means his face was entirely concealed. The crowd followed the cab as it drove back to Frederick-lane, and when the prisoner re-entered the station-house, the passages leading to it were literally blocked up. On the prisoner being taken back to his cell, Mr. Superintendent Guy went to him and told him that the magistrates had fixed eleven o'clock the next morning for his examination at Capel-street police-office and to be prepared. The prisoner answered " Very well, I will be ready. I intend to engage Mr. Macdonogh, the eminent counsel, to defend me." Mr. Superitnendent Guy then withdrew, and the prisoner relaxed into the silent mood which he has observed since he has been in custody. As we have already stated, Mrs. Spollen and her daughter Julia were examined at great length by the Crown Solici tor and Mr. Guy on Thursday last. Their respective statements were fully written out and read to them yes terday. In Mrs. Spollen's statement relative to the manner in which the murder was committed, she says that on the evening of the 13th N svember last her husband was laying in wait in the corridor at about seven o'clock. He was not long there when Mr. Little came out of his office and went into the water closed which adjoins the cash office. After he had done so her husband slipped into Mr. Little's room, and concealed himself behind the counter. Mr. Little returned in a short time, and locked the door on the inside, and then went to his chair stea sat down. At this part of '.he narrative Mrs. Spollen says her husband observed: "I had nothing for it then but to finish him." She further says, that -afesr having effected his escape by a window and along the roof of the terminus, he brought the money which he had taken from Mr. Little's office home with him in a bucket. He obtained a long ladder, a hammer, and an iron holdfast, and ascended by the ladder to a chimney in the old locomotive sheds, the flue of which was curved, which would prevent any person looking ap it observing anything which might be placed in the top of it. He secured the holdfast across the fine, and placed the bucket containing the money upon it. The money remained in this place for several days, when he removed it to the place in which it was discovered. The statement made by Julia Spollen, relative to the piece of cloth in which some of the money has been found wrapped up, and which she mid she had got from her aunt to make a bonnet, has been corroboraeed, as the aunt of the child was examined on Friday, and identified the piece of cloth as thit which she had given her niece for the purpose above stated- James Spollen, the son of the accused, was conveyed on Friday morning from Chancery-lane police station-house, where he has been hept in charge since the day of his father's arrest, to the Breadstone terminus, and was examined at considerable length by the crown solicitors, assisted by Mr. Guy. As this boy was under examinatien for a considerable portion of the day, and the police having determined on bringing up the prisoner for examination before the magistrates this morning, it may be fairly conjectured that some important ev dence has been obtained. The person who Mrs. Spollen says made her husband a present of a razor a short time before the murder was committed was not examined yesterday, as the Crown-solicitor was busily engaged during the day arranging the evidence which is intended to be given this day in support of the charge made against the prisoner. The search for the key of the cash office was pursuedyesterday with much energy by Sergeant Craven and the labourers employed, but without success ; although every part of the little river Bradogue adjoining the railway was explored over and over again. A large number of persons were present during the search, and a great many visited the place where the money was found, and the cottage in which the prisoner resided. Mrs. Spollen, we understand, w.ts allowed to return to her cottage on Thursday night, but remained under police surveillance, and was yesterday busily engaged in her usual houshold avocations. She watered the plants in the little garden, and walked about the place with very little apparent concern or trouble of mind. In the course of the day she seated herself on one of the window sills, and continued there a considerable time darting stockings, and not in the least abashed by the curious gaze of the persons in the employment of the company and others who visited the locality during the day. In every quarter of the city nothing is spoken of but the recent discoveries connected with the murder of Mr. Little, and perhaps on no other occasion has there been caused such an amount of geueral excitement as the revelations of the " Broadstone tragedy" have created.—Free-man's JourLal of Saturday.

SINGULAR CAPTURE —A cod was taken at Keiss the other day, from the mouth of which protruded the tail of a large trout, which it had ineffectually attempted ta The trout was a fine 'fish of five or six polities weight ; and, what is ceetraerdinary, on being opened it was found to con tain a full grown herring !

A STAGE- - ATI4uCK GERMAN COUNT.—The German papers announce the death of Count Hahr-Neuhaus, a most celebrated character in his day. He was the father of the well known Ida, Countess of Hahn-Hahn, and Lad devoted -the whole of his life, and a very large for tune, to the stage. an early life he built on his estate a beautiful theatre, which he fitted up in the most costly manner, and for which he provided a regular company of actors, maintained at his awn expen e. Most of the celebrated actors of the day made occasional appearances on his stage. His passion, however, cost him dearly, and one estate after another had to be sold to defray his lavish expenditure. He died at Aliens, at the advanced age of 78, in very needy ei; cum stances. He had lat e ly b een o bl iged to work for his bread, and—the " ruling passion strong in death"—conducted, as paid director, a provincial theatre up to his last moments. —Literary Gazette.

THE NORTHERN TIMES.-LIVERPOOL, MONDAY, JUNE 29, 1857. DEATH BY STRYCHNINE. We t!,'Ke the following from the Cork Constitution of Saturday :—" Within the last few days much excitement .as been created at Upton, near Bandon, consequent on the death of a woman named Howes, under circumstances which occasioned a very general suspicion that she had died of poison. Mr. Honohan, the coroner for the dis trict, has commenced an inquiry into the facts, and the result is, that disclosures have been made which render it requisite to adjourn the investigation for the purpose of having the contents of the deceased woman's stomach submitted to a chemical analysis. It appears that the deceased was mother to a party who held a position in the hospital at Bandon workhouse, in which she had facilities of obtaining access to the drugs which were kept in the establishment. Deceased had been for some time previous to her death subject to attacks of perspiration, for which the daughter recommended her to take some gallic acid. The daughter states that she procured a pill box of gallic acid, intending to g've it to her mother on the first oppor tunity. When she afterwards came to look for the box, she could not find it ; but some time subsequently she found a box, which from its appearance she supposed to be the same. She gave it to her mother, who, it appears, took a portion of it, and died in about two hours after exhibiting all the symptoms of strychnine. It does not appear that the daughter had-any interest in her mother's death, and the opinion of many persons is that the occur rence arose from mistake. The inquest has been atjourned for the present, awaiting a chemical analysis by Professor Blyth, of the Queen's College. It should be stated that the pill-box has since been examined, and its contents are suspected to be strychnine. A very small portion being administered to a cat immediately caused its death." ST.

Hottsts-RaciNG IN TURKEY.—Ws month the English reAdents here held a horse race near the Earopean " Sweet Waters." The fly:nib:sr of competing horses was propor tionally large. The race course was honoured and en livened by the presence of English ladies living here. Mr. Stampa, jun., won the first prize, and the horse he rode was English. The second prize was adjudged to a horse belonging to Lord Stratford de Redeliffe ; it was ridden by a groom of his lordship's. The spectators, as well as the parties connected with the " turf," made heavy bets, and a good dual of money changed hands. A much larger race, a grand field-day in short, is to come off shortly, to which the present affair has been a mere prelude. We are to have a steeplechase also, and the lists are open, with the utmost impartiality, to horses of every nationality and genealogy. MR. CLIIIMON OF Tint ROYAL BRITISH BANS Cameron, the late manoger of the Royal British Bank, was brought up to the Judges's Chambers, on Thursday, when an application was made on hie behalf for additional time to enable him to procure bail to meet charges on which he has been recently apprehended. Mr. Simpson, Field's assistant, the officer in whose custody be was brought to England, declined, however, the responsibility of the further charge of the prisoner ; on which the learned judge, Mr. Justice Erle,t7stated that he must sign the com mitment. Mr. Cameron was thereupon taken by the tip staff to the Queen's prison. It should be mentioned that the bail required in the case of Mr. Cameron is £24.000 — viz., himself in £l2 000, with two securities tor £6,000 each. £B,OOO was the snm demanded in the case of Mr. Macleod and the other directors, The capture of Mr. Catneror, we hear, was effected under rather peculiar circumstances, reflecting no small credit on the person employed in tracking his movetnents. ATTEMPT TO Boner A BRIDEVELL.—On Wednesday, at the Court of Quarter Sessions a determined offender, named Birchen, was indicted for, and pleaded guilty to, setting fire to Kinsale bridewell, in which he was confined for robbery. Jeremiah O'Brien, turnkey, stated that his attention was called by the prisoner calling to him for help, and on cooling to his cell he found the prisoner with .his head out of the window of the cell, which was filled with a dense smoke, caused by some lighted straw which was burning alongside the door. Prisoner had taken the straw out of his bed, placed it against the door of his tell, and lighted it ; the smoke it created was so thick that the prisoner was nearly stifled, and had to put his head out of the window and call for assistance. The prisoner had been extremely unruly and disorderly. He had smashed the window of one of the cells in order to effect his escape. His Worship said the court were inclined to think the prisoner committed the act in order to get himself trans ported ; but although transportation was very different from what people imagined, the court would not gratify his wish, but would sentence him to three years' hard labour in the county gaol. The prisoner, who evidently was much disappointed at the sentence, burst out into a howl of rage in the dock, and took off his shoe for the purpose of throw ing it at his Worship, but was promptly restrained by the turnkeys in attendance, and was prevented from executing his purpose.— Cork, Coestitution, CLERICAL OPPOSITION TO T ar. NEW DIVORCE BILL. A meeting of clergy of the Atchdeaconry of Taunton was held on Friday, at Taunton, to consider what steps should be taken to oppose the passing of the new Divorce Bill by the House of Commons. Archdeacon Denison pre. sided. Alter prayer the archdeacon explained the object of the meeting. He lamented the apathy which per vaded the Church of England with respect to questions affecting her very existence. He hoped, however, that this meeting might prove the beginning of a course of successful resistance. At any rate, it would relieve the consciences of the clergy in regard to the Divorce Bill. He believed that no measure of a worse character had ever been introduced into the House of Commons. (Cheers.) The inviolability of mmiege had received the sanction of our Lord, as the weli-known text in St. Mark's G)spel showed. The bill hol !s very different language, and gave no less than four grounds on which man and wife might be divorced. If the members of the Church of England wished to do their duty they would oppose the bill. For himself, if the bill should become law he should disobey it. Nothing should ever induce him to ask God's ble ,, sing over those who had been divorced a vinculo matrimonii He begged the clergy to unite against the bill. The Rev. W. Portman, rural dean, proposed the adopti n of a petition to the House of Commons against the bill. The Rev. F. J. Smith seconded the motion. After a few remarks from the Rev. H. Gale, Dr. WAIL and others, the petition was adopted with only one diseentient voice.

Emigrants to the UNITED STATES and CANADA, by La' ing the Through Tickets of the Grand Trunk Railway Company, are conveyed from their port of landing to their destination in less than ONE QUARTER OF THE TIME taken by Steam Boats, and at about the same rates of fares. Thus a passenger can reach Chicago from Quebec, a distance of 1,007 miles, in less than 2i days, whereas by water it is nearly double the distance, and require., from 12 to 15 days, with five Or six changes of Steam Boats, during all of which they are exposed to the arts and machinations of designing persons, whose sole means of living is by their plunder. The Steam Boats, especially when crowded, scarcely afford protection from the weather. Passengers with Through Tickets are allowed the same amount of luggage, free, as on board the ship, and it is conveyed from the Ship to the Railway Station without any charge whatever. The Agents of the I rand Trunk Company will give Mechanics, Artizans, and Labourers, on their arrival, the best information in respect to employe - ent, the places at which it is to be had, and the rates of wages.

MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Saturday Evening. The demand for Cotton continues active, and prices of all descriptions are firmly maintained. The sales to-day were 10,000 bales, including 3,000 on speculation and for export. The Liverpool Share Market was very dull to-day, and, with little business doing, prices suffered a decline. The transactions consisted of Birkenhead, Lancashire, and Cheshire, 701; Lan cashire and Yorkshire, 1001, 100 ; Manches ter, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 44i ; North Eastern, 23 ; Dovers, 22k, ; Grand Trunk of Canada, 141. 7-16 ; Great Western of Canada, new, lip.

The. demand for Money to-day, as is usual on a Saturday, was not so pressing, and we have no change to notice in the rates for discounts. In the private, banking houses 6 per cent, is fully maintained, although in exceptional cases, where the paper is of a choice descrip tion, accommodation may be had for 58 per cent. The approaching settlements at the • Stock Exchange, together with the payments of the 4th, and the preparations for the despatch of silver by the ensuing Indian mail, will all tempo rarily combine to check any immediate relaxation, end, notwithstanding the opinion is enter tained that the Bank may be eventually enabled to reduce the rate of discount to five per cent, it is not thought that it will descend below that point. On the Continent there is a considerable demand for money, and, as at Ham burg, 7 per cent. is the rate, it is satisfactory evidence of the absorption to effect the remittances necessary for this market. Despite the operations of the bullion brokers, who are still sending gold to France, the heavy arrivals by the late American mails have provided enough for this purpose, and left a considerable balance to be sent into the Bank. It is thus estimated that the quantity so disposed of has reinforced the bullion in the coffers of that establishment, so as to bring the total to an amount of nearly twelve millions sterling. The Market for the Public Funds and Se curities had a decided fall to-day, prices having declined fully I per cent., produced by the unsatisfactory , •nature of the Eastern ad vices. The exehanges, it is true, are rather more favourable, and the Bulls, were calculating upon an improvement. If the political news had been encou raging, increased firmness would, no doubt, have been imparted to the quotations. The progress of the disaffection, and the extension of the mutiny, naturally enough depressed the market, and many timid operators who were waiting for a rise were induced to close their engagements. Hence the adverse movement in prices, but .at the close of the market a rather stronger tone wets noticeable, the favourable Bank return, the diminished pressure for money " out of doors," and the knowledge of the fact that the Government were taking measures that would no doubt be successful in ,quelling the revolt, then producing an inclination to purchase stock at the depreciated quotations. No reaction, however, ensued, but the decline was arrested, and the ten. dency became firmer. Consols for the 9th prox. were 928, e, then 92t ; " after hours" they were called 92 1.3-16 to 92 15-16. For the opening they were officially marked 921, 1 1. The new Three per Cents. were 921,11, and the Reduced 92Z, D. Bank Stock was 212 k to 213. Exehequer Bills were de pressed, being 10s to 8s dis.

It is not presumed that the outstanding engagements are of a very extensive character, and the terms charged for " carrying over" are found to be rather lighter than on previous occasions. Of course the fall in the Funds had an exceedingly prejudicial effect upon the value of most of the leading securities, and in many instances a decline of fully 1 per cent. took place. Caledonian receded East Anglian, I to /, Great Northern 2 ditto A Stock /, Great Western / to and Lancashire and Yorkshire 1, North Western nearly 1, South Western, 1, Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire I to Midiand /, North British /, North Eastern (ITh.a•wielr) 4 1 -`, Do.

In the Colonial Market there was also some degree of depression, and East Indian, which were I lower, closed at 22/ to 228. Grand Trunk of Canada dropped 1 per eent., and the Six per Cent. Deben tures were 1. to 1/ per cent. lower. The new under takings, sech as the Oude, Central ditto, Punjaub, Eastern Bengal, &e., were nominally at previous rates. The Markets for French shares naturally drooped in consequence of the continued weakness of the Paris Bourse. Paris and Lyons were dealt in at 588, and Orleans at 58/. The other Foreign Shares underwent no particular ohange.

The official returns of the export of the precious metals from the port of London, for the week ending 19th June, shos a total of 42,440 ozs. of gold, and 1 400 ozs. of silver. The suspension of Messrs. Smith, h ider, Smith, aud Scrivens, of the Hastings and St. Lsonard's Bank, was announced yesterday. It is an old established firm, having been founded in 1791, with a fixed note issue of 38,038. Branch establish ments, open on market days only, existed at Battle, Hawkhurst, Robertsbridge, and Hail sham. It is stated the firm enjoyed the highest credit, and that the failure has been occasioned through one of the partners having . become involved with transactions connected with his brother, who had embarked a considerable sum in agricultural and other speculations. From what can be at present ascertained, there is a prospect of a favourable dividend, but until the affairs shall have been fully investigated no accurate statement can be made. The feeling with regard to the firm is nevertheless of so friendly a nature that there is little probability of a resort to the Gazette. The total of liabilities is stated at 150,0001., and the assets at 75,0001, and the firm have funds in the hands of some of the London discount brokers. The present circulation of notes is about 25,0001. The price of Y.C. Tallow on the spot closed yesterday at 685., showing a rise of no less than Is. per cwt. since last Friday. This remarkable movement is solely owing to the current speculation. The price of the same article for the last three months of 1857 is 58s. 6d. _ _ _ The Dutch Trading Company have declared for sale on the f23rd July '83,539 bags and baskets Java sugar, and 7,377 bags Mauritius, The London Produce Market during the week has been-rather quieter, although during the last few days a good demand has existed for most articles. Sugar at the beginning of the week was fiat, but some parcels were withdrawn from sale, and this strengthened the market. Yesterday afternoon, however, there was renewed heaviness, and ageneral decline of is. per cwt. must be re ported. Coffee has been well supported, and although the market has been abundantly supplied, the wants of the trade and the export demand have kept up the quotations. Tea - has been firmer, owing to a speculative inquiry Cocoa has advanced, rice is quiet at previous value, and rum continues inactive. Spices have remained firm, and in some cases an advance has been realised. Saltpetre is dull, and tallow has advanced considerably, P.Y.C. being now 665. on the spot. In other articles there is no particular change to report. Trade in the manufacturing districts is improving and a more cheerful tone is prevalent, During the week the shipping houses in Leeds were busy, and their had also been a fair number of orders from the country. At Bradford there was a con• tinnanee of the improvement lately observed in the piece trade. Business was also good in worsted yarns for export, whilst cotton warp transactions were more freely entered into. Combing and short wools were at full prices. At Halifax the trade in the Wool and worsted branches was active. The rates were : hogs 190. and weathers 17d. per pound. At Manchester the improvement noticed on Tuesday continued, and there was a steady demand for cloths of most descriptions at very full rates. Respecting the movements in Mines during the week, the Mininy Journal of to-day says— In the early part of the week there were many inquiries made for shares in dividend and progressive mines, but " bargains” were the chief things required, and, with the symptoms of improvement in prospect, sellers have not been so anxious to realise. Devon Great Consols were in request at 445 to 455, Alfred Consols 16, West Basset 23 to 30, North Basset 15 to 16, Cook's Kitchen 4/ to 5, Wheal Kitty 1B to 19, Basset 240 to 245, South Frances 290 to 295. Rosewarne shares have been flat at 35 to 37i, Craddock Moor 45, East Bassett 36 to -37 k, Herodsfoot 7i to 7j, Mary Anne 431 to 431, Trelawny 24/, East Rus sell t 71, Wheal Edward 6. to 6/ Garreg shares have been in request at a to 1, North Crotty 4to 4i. Trevoolo shares are flat at 91; to 10, Wheal Margaret 50 to 55, Tamar Consols 1i to There 'has been a fair amount of business done this week in the manufacturing districts of the north of Ireland. Retail departments are below par, but wholesale firms have no cause to complain. The prices of the provisions which form the food of the masses become gradually lower ; and a very short interval only can elapse until the national esculent will be accessible to the masses. A few days ago, the price of the early potatoes was at a figure that could only be reached by an epicure ; now, they may be had by the mere operative, but only as a rarity and a garnish for his Sunday dinner. Work is obtainable to all who are willing to be employed. Strikes, just now, have no existence in Belfast. The Linen Trade may be said to be in a satisfactory condition. Bleached goods are not so slow in moving off as they were a few weeks ago. The larger houses have been more actively employed, and orders come in pretty freely. There has been little turn in the handkerchief trade. Light Lawns are more sought for, and goods finished in the brown and coloured states have had some fair clearances. In the public sales at open markets a steady trade continues to be done, and production of hand-loom goods is large. Power-loom fabrics sell freely. All the foreign markets have absorbed large quantities of such goods ; and, were money at a more reasonable figure, we might expect to see considerable additions made to the existing factories for weaving linens. Yarns are a shade firmer ; medium warps of top quality sell at full prices ; wefts are unchanged. Flax, of Russian growth, becomes more difficult to buy ; home raised is nearly exhausted. The following are the Gazette average prices of Muscovado Sugar for the week ending June 23, 1857, exclusive of Custom's duties payable thereon, on the importation thereof into Great Britain : From the West Indies, 44s 7:-Id per cwt ; from the Mauritius, 43s 90 per do; from the East Indies, 48e 4id per do ; average price of the foregoing descriptions, 45s 9d per do. MARE A. NOTE OF.—ln a leader on the subj ect of the Ohio slave case, the New York Express, at a part of the narrative which the writer considers important, says, " Stick a pin there"—an American equivalent for Captain Cuttle's well-known phrase. BRITANNIA'S TRIDENT GONE.--On Friday se'nnight, the trident which was borne b) the figure of Britannia, on the new building of Somerset house, suddenly disappeared —not a splinter, or even the dust remaining ! Britannia's figure still points upwards. BRITISH BENEFICENT INSTITETION.—The anniversary festival of this useful institution, the object of which is to allow £3O a-year to the widows and unmarried orphan daughters of clergymen, officers in the army and navy, and other persons who have moved in a superior station in society, took place on Friday at the London Tavern. Mr. Sheriff Mechi, who was in the chair, pressed the claims of the society on the support of the public, and his appeal, and that of other gentlemen, produced a subscription of nearly £7OO in the course of the evening. A grand bazaar is to be held in support of the institution, on Friday and Saturday, July 8 and 4, in the grounds of Westbourne College, Bayswater-road, the programme of which presents vftrip . 4s attractions.
