Cir THE NORTHERN TIMES will be Per manently Enlarged to Double its present size, on or about the Ist of December. Eke Sarttru tinteo WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1856 The domestic intelligence of to-day is rather meagre. The publil attention is still called to the gold dust robbery, the frauds on the Great Northern Railway, the Erith murder, the Dublin tragedy, and such like crimes of magnitude. Respecting the murder of Mr.' Little, our Dublin letters inform us that various rumours continue to prevail as to some party or parties having been taken iuto custody, and as to the manner in wkich they are sought to be implicated; but no positive or reliable information can be obtained from the police, as its publicity, affirmatively or negatively, might tend to frustrate the ends of justices Nevertheless, their manner is saidto indicate that some decisive step had been, of Was about to be, taken. The razor found in the canal has been subjected to a microscopic examination, in order to discover any traces of blood,-but the result has not been made known. It is, however, possible that no marks have been hound,-even supposing it to have been used by the murderer, as it had not only been lying a consider able time in the water, but had been wiped on the towel found in the room. The continued intrest excited in the public mind is manifested by the crowds of people of all classes who frequent the railway terminus. It is also shown by the fact that the persons who are co operating in the con duct of the enquiry have received a number of anonymous letters making many, and some Strange suggestions, and not a few detailing dreams on the subject with which the writer or some mem ber of his family had been visited. We may -further observe that it is now mentioned that during the first three months of Mr. Little's employment as cashier, a sum of from £5O to_ £BO was abstracted from him, a circumstance which leads to the strongest suspicion that the robbery and murder in the present instance were the work of the thief on that occasion, and that this person must have been some one in the employment of the company. The medical gentlemen by whom the post mortem examination was made, are now of opinion, from the result of the experiments with the recovered instruments, that the first blow was inflicted from the side, and not by a - person stand ing in front, as was at first supposed. It seems that there is to be no end to The legal proceedings against the Royal 13ritish Bank. The appeal to the Lord Justices against the judgment of Vice-Chancellor Kmdersley is not to come on for hearing until this day week. Yesterday, Commissioner ronhlanque had the cane before him, when it was ordered that the Directors should siga for the time of their directorship, and that they should have the option of filing distinct balance sheets from the time they became directors' The Select Vestry held its usual fortnightly meeting yesterday, but the proceedings were quite unimportant. 11Ir. Woodruff made a few remarks respecting the " burial fees," in which he repudi ated the idea, that the dispute on that question was between the rectors and. churchwardens. It 'was, lie said, a dispute with _the _Rector and the whole of the Select Vestry. lie also made a' few remarks as to the desirability of having the Rector's claim settled by a court of law, so that all parties interested would know and stand in their proper position before the public. Among the local meetings of the day, was one held yesterday, at the Clarendon Rooms, for the purpose of submitting, for approval by the shareholders of the English and Irish Magnetic Telegraph Company, the proposed terms of amalgamation with the tititish and Submarine Telegraph Companies. After a short discussion, the motion for an amalgation, as proposed, was agreed to. The union of these companies will render the concern a rather powerful one, inasmuch as news can be received and transmitted to and from all quarters of of the United Kingdom, and the cities and towns of the European continent. Whilst alluding to this subject, we may mention that Telegraphic Communication for business, has been commenced between the City of New York and St. John's Newfoundland. The distance from New York to St. John's, Newfoundland, following the telegraph wires, is 1,715 miles. Along a part of this distance, namely, from Ashpe Bay, N.S., to Cape Bay, New foundland, say 85 miles, a superior English submarine cable has been laid with the utmost success. Of the whole route, 880 miles (from New York to Nova Scotia) are under the controul of the American Telegraph Company, - having their office at No, 21, Wall street, in that city ; and the balance, 835 miles (includ ing the submarine cable) is under that of the Newfoundland Company. , A large part of the line on-this route is new, and the remaining por tion has been recently overhauled and thoroughly repaired, and - the whole is pronounced by compe tent judges to be one of the 'most perfect and substantial lines in the country. • Our continential advice's do not contain much that is really important. Fiom Paris we have a telegraphic despatch dated _Tuesday night, intimating that_ news from Berlin states - that the Federal Council had refused to demand of Prussia the release of the Neufchatel prisoners without condi tions. The Council declared that it was ready to negociate, and re-establish neighbourly relations, and good friendship with Prussia. Preparations are being made in order that justice shall follow its proper course in the case of the Neufchatel pri soners. The Emperor and Empress of Austria entered Trieste on the 20th inst., where they met with a reception extremely enthusiastic. According to reports prevalent in Vienna, the Bessarabian question may be considered settled as far as Bolgrad is concerned, and the same is also rumoured respecting the Isle of Serpents. It is reported that the Austrian Minister of Finance, Baron Bruck is about to enter into negociations with Prussia, far facilitating the intercourse between Austria and.the Zoliverein.. Austria is represented as being willing to listen. to any suggestions that may be made by the Zollverein, and indulges the hope that it will display equal complaisance for facilitating the intercourse between the different Customs Union States, and for reducing the duty in both tariffs on the produce of foreign countries. The accounts from Naples add little or nothing to our previous information respecting affairs in that quarter. The King, it is said, would shortly arrive at Naples, and afterwards retire to Caserta, where her Majestey loves to add to the family of the Bour bons. The Minister Plenipotentiary of the Argen tine Republic has recently visited Naples, for the purpose of requesting the Government to give up a portion of criminals, condemned for life, to the number of some thousands, to be shipped off to his MANCHESTER STREET, LIVERPOOL, I country. From St. Petersburgh we learn that the Czar has sent decorations to many Persians of distinc tion, and has intimated to the First Minister of the Shah, that he enjoys his full esteem. Intelligence from Athens inform us, that the army of occupation will quit Greece as soon as the King gets back, but some parties seem to say the statement requires confirmation. The Peninsular mail brings us Lisbon letters to the 10th instant. They state that the Legita mists ha ve not manage d to return more t h an s i x or eight of their party now that they have taken part in the el ect i ons. It is said, that the Min i ster of Finance, havi ng b een disappointed in his hopes of raising upon f avourable terms, a foreign loan for the 1 , 000 eontos (#;330,000), decreed by the last Cortes for Public Works, has now directel his attention to the Bank of P ortugal, wh i ch i s l i kely Ito advance all that is required at present upon a deposit of 3 per cent bonds, which the Minister will take, hereafter, a more favourable opportunity of negotiating in Eengland. There is not any news worthy of special notice, and the me _lather of our Paris correspondent contains all that it interekting fkom Franee The 3 per ,potits. elosedimikevening at 67f. 85c. THE INC)ME TAX MGYEMENT.—It• is said that one o f 4tl glorious prineiples , uf out constitution is that which — discountenances taxation without rcpresentaion. This, however, is not the case; and in nothing is it more observant thin .in Ore mode 'of imposing and collecting the Income tax. Independent of the - heavy amount - of the impost in question; and the inquisitorial mariner in' which it is assessed, the fact of no difference being male between permanent and precarious incomes, or incomes derived from settled property, and manual and mental labour, has made the very name of Income tax hateful. Every man should contri bute to tho necessities of the state in which he lives, accord ing to his means; but he has a right to hare a voice as to the distribution of the taxes. To put the goiernment hand into his pocket and extract so much each year from him, in the shape of an assessed tax, an 1 deny him the right of voting for a member of Parliament, because he is not a householder, is an unpardonable absurdity. We observe- that steps are being taken to induce the Chancellor of the Exchequer to reduce the amount, as well as to modify the mode of exaction, and hope the efforts will be successful. THE EMPEROR OF FRANCE, AND HIS LOVE OF CIVIL AND RELIGIOUS LIBERTY.—We often hear of the Emperor of France being praised for his hatred of oppression, but if We san credit the recent news from Paris, his Imperial Majesty through hie legal-officers—has given pretty strong evideneci he does not well understand, much less appreciate, the principles of eivil and religions liberty. Forty-six indivi duals, of a ne , .lv reef, said to be Methodist in its discipline and teaching, have been holding a prayer meeting, wbich the GJvarnment interdicted, When the Evangelical Alliance met in Paris, some time - ago, an interdict was put upon a portion of their spiritual observances. To this they submitted, but the Morniers were not ao obedient, and hence the Ones indicted by the correctional police of Lyons. What would our ally; the Emperor Napoleon, think, if the police authorities of Liverpool or London were so bigoted and foolish as to intlist Aries upon a few Roman Catholics for Wershippihg their Creator according to the dictates of their conscience ? SUDDEN DEATH.—Yesterday a man named . Rooney, who lived in Freemason's Row, died suddenly, without any apparent plum__ (AMERICAN MA ILS. —The tufted States mail steamer Atlantic-sails this day for New York. Letters in the ordinary course at the General Post Office up to seven, and to eight with fees ; at the Stage till nine, with additional late fees, ATTEMPT AT SuiciDE.—Ellen Bennett was charged before Mr. Aikin, at the Police court, yesterday, on a charge of attempting to commit suicide, by throwing herself - oft George's Pier. She had made an attempt on her life before. She was committed. LIME STREET WARD.—We understand that arrangements are in progress, amongst the admirers and supporters of J. R. Jeffery, Es.q , who was returned to the Council as representative of the ab3ve ward, to entertain that gentleman at a banquet, to be held on Tuesday next, the 2nd of Dec. CoLustort IN THE RIVER.—On Monday night, the ship John Havan, for Caleutta, and the Headealrgli, from t.tew Orleans l came in contact in the river, when the former lost her maintop gallant mast, and went aground neat' the Wood side Ferry, but was got off by the morning tide. The latter lost her anchor and chain& THE CHESTER MURDERER.—Jackson remains in the same dogged mood in which he appeared at his exami nation. We understand that his friends have declined advancing any amount. whatever for the purposes of his defence. He will have, therefore, to rely upon counsel appointed by the judge for his defence. - STATE OF THE WEATHER.—Last evening, at an early hour, our old friend Time seemed toirdve progresiied rather more rapidly than is his usual wont. Christmas-tide was suddenly upon us in the shape of a heavy - fall of snow,Which continued during the greater part of the night, and covered the dock bridges, and surrounding parts with a sheet of virgin whiteness, Inthe upper part of the'town the frost dissolved almost as quickly as it reached the ground: NO ,doubt the atmosphere has been .greatly purified by the fltll, .and will have a beneficial effect upon the, public-health. .TUB Rata.. CLERGV.—Of -late th ere i s agrekit - chinge in the services . of the - Church in this town : sometimes we have services at nine a.m., other time at half past ten, and again at eleven a.m.; in Welch again at three, or half past three p.m. ; English again at half past six o'clock p.m. Now, many of the gentry have to come three or four Miles from the country, and are, oftentimes, half an hour too early, or half an hour " too late," to their great mortification: It Mr. Morgan wishes to proceed in the various holding of the services in this church, surely he oug ht t o l e t hi s congregation be acquainted with his " fancy ways."— Correspondent. INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE.—Last night, the Rev. Canon Bickersteth, of London, delivered an interesting lecture at the Collegiate Institution, on the " Inspiration o f the Bible." The lecture was listened to with much interest by a respectable eudierce, andthe subject was handled by the rev. cancri with great ability.and profound research. The Bible, of itself, cannot fail to attract the attention of the reader, but when the divine volume is interpreted by a competent and deeply learned scholar, the interest is much increased. The lecturer, as well as being a clear expounder, is gifted. with singular oratorical powers, and received the warmest applause of the respectable assembly, and at the close of the lecture an enthusiastic vote of thanks was unanimously- accorded to him. WORKING MEN'S SATURDAY EVENING CONCERTS, °elm. STEET, LONDON-ROAD. —We announce, with pleasure, the continued success of the concerts held every Saturday evening in Oakes-street, London•road. The novelty of amateur singing is here introduced, and attracts a large attendance of the working classes, who evidently appreciate the' efforts . made for their instruction and amusement. Alderman Dover presided last Saturday evening, and by hi s well timed remarks elicited the approbation of all present. Mr. John Bigham, being introduced in a eulogistic speech by the chairman, made same appropriate observations. Att u Schneider presided at the pianoforte. Miss Morris, who had kindly offered to sing gratuitously, was received with enthusiaim, and we have seldom heard a more pleasing and unassuming artiste. We have to announce that Miss Jessie Hammond has volunteered to sing gratuitously, for the benefit of the Working Men's Association, on Saturday evening next, the 29th instant, and also on the following Saturday, D:cember 6th. Too - much praise cannot be accorded to Miss Hammond for her kindness in this matter, and as this will be. her first appearance in public since her return from America, we anticipate a rich treat for the working classes.—Communicate4. L r For some time past a strange story has been in circulation in Paris, and has had many believers. It seems that some time ago a man entered the church of Saint Laurent towards eventime, for the purpose of saying his prayers. Fatigued, probably, with the labours of the day, he fell asleep in the little obscure corner where he had placed himself, in order to carry on his devotions. At the usual time, the church was closed, and the sleeper was left all unmoved in his corner, Soon after darkness had set in, he woke, found that he wa s locked in, and prenared himself, therefore, to pass the night as he best might. Ile withdrew to a confessional, placed him self there, and waited for sleep to come to him again. While in this state, the hours wearing ,on and midnight approach ing, he was surprised by hearing stealthy footsteps resound ing through the building ; and looking round he beheld a priest, with a lantern in his hand, approaching. The priest walked slowly to Nerds one of the massive piilars of the nave, and opened a secret door, that gave externally no indication of its existence. Immediately a young girl, thin, wan, sad-looking, and but half clad, appeared on the threshold of the door. The priest gave her a basket con taining food, closed the door, and went his way, the in truder looking on, unable to move or utter a sound. The next morning, he waited patiently until the doors were opened, took an opportunity of slipping out unobserved, went home and related what had occurred ; the story has gradually spread until the Droit comes forward with a denial of the whole matter. It says that the police agents have searched the Church of St. Laurent, and that they declare no such secret door exists as that described, and that there is no trace of any young girl having' been confined in the building. I do not know what amount of truth the story I have just related may have in it. • I think, if it were all pure invention, the Droit would _not have taken the trouble to deny it. At all events, many people who before were inclined to treat the whole affair as a libel against the priests, were soon inclined to believe it. French ecclesiastics are not altogether tree from blemish, it is very bad character. There are few husbands, for in s t ance . pretty generally known. In Paris, at lea-t, they b ear a who will tolerate the visits cf a priest in their households, It is not improbable that this startling adventure may have some foundation.

GREAT WESTERN OF BENGAL RAILWAY.—The Master in Chancery Humphry has at length decided that all transfers of shares or scrip in this abortive company are illegal and void, and has directed the declaration of a dividend of the assets in the hands of Mr. Quilter (of the firm of Quilter, Ball, and Co.), the official manager, among the original allottees of shares, the result of which is that the transferees of shares or scrip will not be entitled to participate. . •-. • TOTAL.

Messrs. Drown, Hunter, and Co. in their circular issued this morning contains the following general remarks There has been no improvement to notice in the aspect of monetary affsirs during .the past month, the continuance of the drain of gold for export to the continent compelled the directors of the Bank of England, under the existing currency laws, again on the 13th inst. to raise the rate of discount from 6 to 7 per cent on two months' bills, or to an uniform minimum rate of 7 per cent on paper having no more than ninety-five days to run, preceded two days previously by a refusal to re-discount bill brokers' paper of longer date than thirty days. So far these rapid advances in the value of money have only partially arrested the efflux of bullion and proved nearly abortive, whilst the injury such additional restrictions inflict, •by fettering and taxing mercantile operations, must, if of long duration, have a most baneful influence. The large arrivals of specie from Australia, which have been so anxiously looked for, may probably pruduce a more easy feeling, but it is not appre hended that any permanent relief will be afforded to the Money Market to cause an immediate reduction in the rate of discount, unless the demand from the continent should shortly subside, and thereby admit of future arrivals finding their way into the bank cellars. Notwithstanding these adverse circumstances the produce markets have shown great activity, and in some instances a further advance has been established, the continued large consumption and deficient supplies being sufficient to counteract any material depression in prices which would otherwise have resulted ; latterly, however, the markets have shown less buoyancy, and greater caution has been manifested in transactions. Favourable symptoms are still apparent in the Money Market. Discounts are in less request, and we hear of first-class bills being negotiated under the Bank minimum. Gold continues to be sent into the national establishment, and this circum stance, of course, tends to increase confidence. As the 4th of next month approaches, however, there will, no doubt, be a greater demand, and if the payment of the engagements then falling due, and the settlement of the accounts at the Stock Exchange, do not occasion renewed stringency, there is reason to believe that the Directors will speedily modify their recent restrictive policy. The enquiry for money on the Stock Exchange has been very fluctuating. On Friday, 7 and 78 per cent were paid for loans on Consols until to-day, and some difficulty was felt in procuring them at these rates; but on Saturday the supply of capital sensibly increased, and employment could not be found for it, even on much easier terms. To-day there was a recurrence of the pressure, and accom modation was sought for at 7 per cent. This circumstance, together with several others of minor importance, produced a little weakness in the Consol Market. A few sales were made, and the flatness of the Rentes yesterday, also contri buted to check the buoyancy previouSly noticeable, 'so that a decline of a per cent took place. Consols for money were sold, and prices receded to 938 94, but they afterwards realised 94 to 948, and left off for the next account at 943 For January they were 95 to 95k, and 948 95. The New Three per Cents. were 931 I, and the Reduced 94 93. Ex chequer Bills 2s. to 4s. premium ; the Bonds 98 99 ; and India Bonds 2s. prem. Bank Stock was 2151, and India Stock 225. The London Railway Share Market has been quiet to-day. Purchasers were checked by the approach of the settlement, and prices in most cases were slightly lower. Midland Stock was chiefly effected by speculative realisations. Upon the whole, however, the late advance has been well sup ported. The sales of the day reached the following : Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Stour Valley, 81. Caledonian, 571,. Chester and Holyhead, 371. East Anglian, 17k. Eastern Counties, 98. East Lancashire, 811. Edinburgh and Glasgow. 534. Great Northern, 771. Great Western, 671, t• Lancashire and Yorkshire, 951. Lmadon and North Western, 104 t, 4. Manchester, Sheffield, and Lin coln, 85k. Midland, 81, 80, 1, 4. North Stafford, 121. The market closed steady. The markets for Foreign and Colonial Produce, k both here and in London, keep quiet, and although the sales of such articles .as sugar, tea, and coffee are by no means extensive, prices are sustained. Of Sugar, the imports into the United Kingdom to the 30th September, slow an increase of 34,500, the consumption a decrease of 20,691 tons, and an increase of the stock of 6,581 tons. With respect to coffee, the imports into the United Kingdom to September 30, are 17,722 tons, against 20,322 tons last year, while the con s.urnption is put down at 11,811 tons, against 12,321 tons to the same period last year. At present, the stock at this port is considerably below that of 1855. There is still a strong de- Iftio .I:lneiro 10 43 I Philadelphia Madrid Cadiz Barcelona mand for Rice, for home consumption, but as the quantity here is large, there is not, just now, any prospect of an immediate advance. The imports of this article, this year, exceed those of 1855 to same date, by .0,788-ions. The arrival of - nreadstuffs into Liverpool, both coastwise and from abroad, during the last week, have been to a moderate extent. Rere i the trade has been tolerably steady, but trattsactiOns were confined to mere consumptive require- ments. To-day flour Was rather easier, oats and oatmeal were lower, and Indian corn sold at a decline of 3d to fid-perquarter. Theliner_qualities of vareat brought full rates, but other descriptions were rather easier to buy. The reports from Dublin, Cork, Hull, and Leeds, elsewhere inserted, report - the Markets iri - those - places to-day as dull, and depressed priCes, in most instances, being in favour of the buyer. The 21.1 ark Lane Exprlis of last night contains the folloWing statement : ___. _ _ The apprehended early closing of the Valtie produced some consternation in the Prussian shipping ports, and holders became anxious sellers on the discouraging accounts received from England, but this apprehension may be groundless, from the unexpected alteration in tho temperature. France shows rather flrraer markets. America, influenced by monetary pressure, reparts some decline in breadstuffs, but, with a large export demand, continues to ship freely; the flour made of the new wheat being highly approved, and throwing the country made samples of British growth quite into the shade. Trade in Manehester is reported to be very dull, but, although holders do not give way in price, there is hardly any business doing in either Goods or Yarns. Yesterday's Bradford market was well attended, but trade was flat. There is nothing but complaints amongst manufacturers ; for, whilst wool keeps getting higher, they are unable to get any advance of prices, and with difficulty get the present rates for what they sell. There is more decided character in transactions since the London sales , comnieneed, as manufacturers now see that wool tends upwards. In the Yorkshire trade, both in lerseys and scourers, there has been a decided flatness. At Bradford manufacturers stand out firmly for an advance on prices; as they cannot proceed unless at higher rates, as the raw material is still worse to buy than it was a week ago.

Emile de Girardin has sold his 0207 Passe newspaper—i forty-five shares ou t cu- avrec i for 050,000 f (.09,000). The sum is c all ' st a b le r very laige, as, though the _Presse is a very 1 1- o d affair, newspaper property, under th e i act"'vertr laws, is exposed to peculiar risk. • The ~8 10 11 anent, indeed, can suspend or suppress paper it pleases, without any other formalYdido the signing of a simple decree.

PHILHAnMONIC CONCERT The eighth concert .of the season was given last night, and, we may say, it embraced the most recherche selection of music which has been for some time presented here. The leading feature in the concert was the instrumental performances by Mons. Sainton (violin), Piatte (violoncello), and Herr Halle (piano) ; each, ,in their turn, .gave a solo, and, in neethoven's grand trio concert in C, they conjoined their talents, and, aided by the orchestra in accompaniment, produced a perfect marvel of melody. Nothing was wanting in the performance of this extraordinary creation, and it would be invidious to say which musician excelled. When all seemed to go into the spirit of composition con amore, and with love and ability, the result was delight, even to the uninitiated. The arduous task was lis tened to in breathless silence, and the auditors seemed almost to forget their applause in the silent pleasure afforded them. Mons. Sainton played, as a solo, airs from " Rigolleto," comprising La donne Mobile ; Piatte, airs from " Linda," introducing In Questo Semplice ; and Herr Halle performed twice. Each was excellent in his sphere, and, altogether, discoursed exquisite sounds, so deli ciously, that we feel we weaken the effect of it on all sensitive minds, if we attempt to describe it. The vocalists were Miss Stabbach and Herr Formes; the lady sang first, a grand song of Beethoven's— Ail, Perfido ; but, in it, she was evidently over-weighted, but redeemed herself in singing two sweet ballads of Schlo3sser, in an admirable manner; which was much enhanced by the accompaniment of Herr Halle. The great basso displayed his vast vocal profundity, bat did not contribute much in the way of great singing to the concert. He sang the descriptive solo of the King from E etorle du Nord, and a fine song of Meyerbeer's, seldom heard, Der Monch. - The chorus did well, after a faint success, in an ill selected Madrigal, in the Huguenot' sceda, " The Benediction of the Poignards." This chorus is most difficult, and essentially dramatic; bat it was admirably rendered, and again . dis played the powers of the chorus in a better light than the usual selections permit. The same may be said_ of the Gipsies chorus from the " Bohemian Girl," which went as well, or better, than ever we heard it in the theatre. The band acquitted itself well in the overtures " Siege of Corinth" and_ " Fra Diavolo," and was worthy of much praise in the numerous accompaniments, there being a marked improvement in the brass instruments, and a more chastened style distinguished their performance generally. Mr. Z Herrmann conducted, with his usual assiduity, and he deserves thanks, in common with all the officials, for the generally excellent result of the concert last night. The neit concert is fixed for the 9c,h instant, when Misses Sherrington and Fanny Huddart, and Herr Formes, wil appear. MURDEROUS. ASSAULT The agricultural town of Otley, which is situated on a reach of the river Wharfe, and its neighbourhood, were on Friday night the scenes of a murderous assault and several attempted and consummated robberies. Friday was the annual " statute " day in Otley. It is a day which is set apart for the hiring of farm labourers and domestic servants, and farmers and their wives, and others above them in social rank, and field servan's and house servants crowd into the town from all. parts of the West Riding. The attendance this year was very large, and wages ruled very high. In one case, some thieves entered a dwelling house, and took from it £92 and a watch. At Guisely, a manufacturing village in the neighbourhood of Otley, a murderous assault took place Mr. Brown, a shopkeeper in the village, was seated by his fireside in a hack room, when a tall, stout man came into the shop, and, without a word, turned off the gas, leaving the place in nearly total darkness. Mr. Brown, in some alarm, left his sitting room to enquire the busi. ness of the new coiner. As soon as he approached, the man seized a large knife, used for cutting butter and cheese, which was lying on the connter, and fiercely struck Mr. Brown across the face, inflicting a deep wound which extended from his nose across one cheek to one of his ears. The lower portion of his nose was nearly cut off. Not content with that, the ruffian made a lunge at Mr. Brown's breast, and inflicted another wound just under his shoulder, Fortunately the nature of the instrument, blunt at one end, prevented the second wound from being very dangerous. The man then sprang across the shop to a nest of drawers, in one of which Mr. Brown was in the habit of keeping gold and silver. Ile pulled one open,. but fortunately, that was not the money drawer, and before he could open another, a dog kept by Mr. Brown rushed upon him and seized him with its teeth. Mr. Brown also made an alarm. The robber was intimidated by the noise and the gripe of the dog ; he therefore gave up the .attempt at robbery, shook off the dog, which was too small to hold him, and made his escape. From the darkness in which the shop was plunged, Mr. Brown can give no description of his assailant, except that he was tall. It is not likely, therefore, that the attempted murderer, for such lie is will meet with the punishment he deserves. Mr. Brown, it is hoped, will recover front his injuries. We understand Miss Rothschild, eldest daughter of Baron and Baroness Lionel Rothschild, is shortly to be married to Baron Alphonse Rothschild, son of Baron C. Rothschild, of Paris.
