It is, we believe, no secret that the author of Amber hill is a native of, and resident in, our own town. Independently, however, of any mere local interest we may feel,—this novel evinces such power,—its style is so nervous and forcible,—its knowledge of life and character so deep,—that we are sure our readers will be grateful to us when we have persuaded them to be readers of Ambsrhill. The one fault of the book is its story. In strange contrast to ordinary criticism, we love the author not for his story, but in spite of it. That black cedar, with its blasted branches, and its deathly shade,—which darkens the opening chapter —is the fit emblem of the heroine's life. As, page after page, we trace her course, we find her best intentions distorted by wild passion, and her noblest aspirations bent down by heavy brooding care. It is too sad a story. Is it quite a natural one ? Does human nature—self-reliant, but not God-fearing — at once fall when temptation assails it, and scarcely regain for a moment its higher and purer spirit ? This is a point rather for the theologian than the critic, and we can attempt no answer. We only know that henceforth for us Lilian Y May will stand side by side with Randal Leslie of My Novel,— fearful warning of the result that may perhaps ensue when, acting from a lofty motive, we degrade ourselves by turning aside from what is right—where once we do evil that good may come of it ZtWe' will not do the pseudonymous author of Amber- hill the injustice of telling the story, which, whatever its drawbacks, he has told so well. We will not tear away from their context passages of glowing etmquence and picturesque description. Instead, we would recommend this novel to all who ever read novels at all. It is a book of great promise, and we are sure that the author will, when next we meet him, have produced a work of art which will please by its story not less than Ainberhill interests ;by its evidence of power and its richness of imagination. of duty. The recruitment of the Austrian army for this year, is fixed at 80,000 men instead of 95,000, which was the number last year. ADMISSION OF ATTORNEYS•—The number of attorneys admitted in the last term was 70. The number on the rolls is very considerable. It is believed that in case of peace a French a , my of occu pation, consisting of 40,000 or 50,000 men, will remain in the East for a certain time. The Dresden Gazette, considered a good authority, says, that the instructions given to the Russian plenipotentiaries are, not to restore Kars except for some equivalent. COPENHAGEN, February 27.—A1l the members of the late government, who were impeached of high treason, have been acquitted by the high court, free of costs. REPRESENTATION OP SLIOO.—Mr. fluddlestone, of the English bar, has followed the example of Mr. Knox, and withdrawn from the contest, leaving Mr. John Wynne the sole Conservative candidate. Spiro Mylios, who was one of the ministers of King Otho during the breach of neutrality by Greece, and who was placed on his trial for aiding the insurrection in Turkey, with the money of the state, has been acquitted, to the great joy of the court of Athens. The second sitting of the conference having been post poned gave rise to a variety of rumours in Paris on Wednesday, but little faith was attached to them, on account of the strict obligation of secrecy imposed on each and all of the plenipotentiaries. The Indepsndance Beige asserts most positively that whatever differences of opinion may have, at times, existed between the French and English Governments they have now entirely disappeared, and the most complete unity of views is established between them. CORK BANDON RAILWAY.—On Monday the high sheriffs of both county and city of Cork, took possession of the property of the Cork and Bandon railway company at its termini and stations along the entire line. The executions were issued at the suit of the directors of the company. The Independance denies that the hopes of peace have diminished during the last few days. The same journal asserts that, if the Pope (according to report) comes to Frarce to baptise the Imperial infant, and crown the Em peror Napoleon, it will be contrary to the wishes of the sacred college. It is understood to be the intention of the government to form a large camp on Penenden Heath, near Maidstone, capable of accommodating 20,000 troops, both cavalry and infantry. The formation of the camp will be commenced this spring, and it is expected that the troops will occupy it during the summer.— Tinzes. MR. SERGEANT WILEINS.—It iS with much pleasure that we are enabled to state, upon authority, that Mr. Sergeant Wilkins has entirely recovered from the sudden, painful, and, at one time, serious attack of illness. The learned Sergeant has as yet been unable to go to the Northern Circuit, but he will join it, for the first time since his recovery, on Tuesday next, at Durham. ST. HELEN'S RAILWAY.—The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on Thursday, at St. Helen's, Mr. Gil bert Greenall, M.P., presiding, when it was agreed that a dividend should be declared for the half-year of 2} per cent on stock (B), 3 per cent on stock (C), 23 per cent on stock (D), 23 per cent on. the £25 shares, 1852, 23 per cent on the £2O shares, 1953, and 3 per cent on the shares, 1855. ADMIRAL SIR EDMUND LYONS.-At a court of common council of the city of London, held on Thursday, it was unanimously resolved, on the motion of Mr. Deputy Dakin, seconded by Mr. Alderman and Sheriff Kennedy, that the freedom of the ancient city of London, in a gold box of the value of one hundred guineas, be presented to Admiral Sir Edmund Lyons, in testimony of their admi ration of his d;sting,uished services. DEATHS FROM Fnts.—Two more cases of death by fire have been reported at the Coroner's Court, to Mr. Blake, the beadle. '1 he victims are children who had l.een left alone by their mothers in rooms where there were fires. There really ought to be some severe punishment inflicted on parents who expose their children in this way, almost to certain death . There is not a day but we have to record one or more deaths from this neglect. At the half yearly meeting of the Chartered Bank of India, Australia, and China, on Friday, a report was presented, which stated that the present sum subscribed (200,0001) would be found sufficient for commencing business, with a capi tal of 400,0001., and for that purpose application had been made to the Treasury for power to com mence business with that amount. The interest, at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum, would be payable on the 20th March. THE ALLEGED MURDER ON TOWER-HILL.—On Tuesday Mr. Baker held an inquest rn the body of George Browne, who was found, ea'ly on Sunday morning, on Tower-hill, and died shortly afterwards in the hospital under circum stances already described. The examination of witnesses failed to throw any light on the cause of death. The deceased lived long enough to state to two persons that he had been attacked and wounded by two men and a woman. A serious scalp wound was found at the back of the head. The post mortem examination showed that death was caused by congestion of the brain, but whether this arose from violence or some other cause, the surgeon could not say. The jury returned an open verdict in accordance with the evidence. SHOCKING MURDER IN ULSTER.—On Sunday week a painful sensation was created at Sainifield, near Belfast, by the discovery that a respectable woman, named Margaret Withers, had been murdered. She wes about 50 or 60 years of age, unmarried, and had resided alone. 'Her body was found suspended by a small cord round her neck, and attached to a beam of the house. Her arms were placed across her breast, and sho held a candlestick in one of her hands. She had been heartlessly assaulted in the first instance, as her skull was greatly injured. About a fort night ago she was in Belfast, and had sold a quantity of pork, for which she received some £l2 or £l5. It is con jectured that it was the desire to get possession of this which had led to the perpetration of the murder, in cold blood, of an old, unprotected woman. THE RECENT BURGLARY AT WALWORTII.—On Tues day we published a statement of the circumstances under which a robbery, effected at No. 15A., Sutherland-street, IValworth-road, was discovered. The neighbours were aroused by the cries of the servant of the house, Mary Constable, a girl of 19, who appeared at the door with her throat gashed, and crying out that the house had been robbed and herself nearly murdered. The girl was re moved to the hospital, and the diligence of the police, though ineffectual at present for the discovery of the robbers, has elicited the fact that the girl's statement was a falsehood, and that her wound was self-inflicted. On Thursday, Copplin, the officer, called at the hos pital, and Constable, on seeing him approach her bed, burst into tears and said she should tell the truth respecting the affair. She then said she had made the acqua'ntance of a young man who, with a friend of his, had called on her on the two previous Sanday evenings during the absence of the family at church. Last Sunday evening he aaain came by appointment, and being alone she asked him where his friend was. He replied that he was with his " young woman." She then left him in the parlour while she went up stairs to dress. On coming down they left the house together. They young man then took her to a public-house, where he said he expected to see his sister, and there they had a glass of brandy and conversed with several persons there. When the time for the return of the family approached she returned home. The young man accompanied her to the end of the street, where he took leave of her. On reaching her master's house, she found the front door open and ajar, with a skeleton key in the lock, and stuck so fast that it could not be removed. She hurried in the house, and finding that it had been robbed, she took up a knife and snugged the back of her hand with it, to " make believe " that the thieves did it while she was resisting them. She did not think that enough ; and then, taking up the knife a second time, drew it across her throat. Coppin endeavoured to get from her a description of the party she had'mentioned,lbut she could not, or would not give him the slightest information on the subject. Coppin directed that she should be closely watched, and as soon as she is sufficiently recovered to be removed from the hospital, she will be taken before a magistrate.

Upon the trial of tu: case. the corporation proceeded to prove the title ah° °- set forth, by numerous charters and grants from v ariou s kings, and from the other documents and leases referral to in the foregoing detail. The action brought aga inst Messrs. Bolton and Co. was to recover the amount of certain dues or tolls upon merchandise imported by th e into Liverpool and also into Runcorn, a port on the river Mersey, some twenty miles above the town of We!: pool ; and also on merchandise exported by them fr the 28th day of May, until the 13th of Augus t, 183a° amounting to £486 4s.

The cause was appointed for trial in the month May, 1832, before Lord Chief Justice Tenterden , bu t only six special jurymen were in attendance , an' 4 , -- 0 , neither the plaintiffs nor the defendants prayed a ta t ," the trial was postponed.

In an address, worthy of the i . or r Janes Scarlett, the case t'ed was lain re the jury; it was supP°, r ie b in detail by the evidence above referred to, and w" 0 will be found fully set forth in the bill of exceptions!.'„ the appendix.
