THE GLASGOW WIWI&

Several meetings have already been held by the
rympathisers with the woman Y'Larblan, rod the North
Brill:It Mail says that "Sir George Grey will have a
pressen" put upon him probably unequalled in his ax-
penance as Home Secretary."
The !firemen Courier has the following :—" The unfor-
tunate heroine of this tragedy is, as she stated, a satire of
Inverness, 28 years of age. Her father, William Mackintosh,
came from Strathdearn, and struggled bard here to bring
up a numuoea family. He wrought sometime as a sewyer,
and afterwards kept a small butcher's shop in Waterloo-
place. Jessie has been gone from this town about nine
years, but visited her relations last year. Many here recol-
lect her as the smart barmaid or waiter in a public-house at
the shore kept by one of her sisters."
The Edinburgh Courant sap :—" In connexion with
Jessie M`Lachlan's statement,' a neglected piers of evi-
dence has been recurred to, which seems to be is some 110.
area corroborative of an important averment in that docu-
ment. The prisoner said that old Mr. Flemiafter in-
flicting the wounds on the deceased, took off an burned his
shirt at the kitchen fire. On Saturday, 12th July, the day
prior to Jessie M`Lachlan's arrest, and while old Mr. Fle-
ming was in custody, the authorities proceeded to the house
in Sandyford-place, and made a minute search for all arti-
cles which might import guilt or participation in the mur-
der. Among the ashes under the kitchen grate the officer
found a shirt button, burnt but entire. It was
taken possession of and preserved ; but, appearing to
have no connexion with the case oas way or
other, and especially as no burnt clothing, or what
appeared to be burnt clothing, was found, and there being
only one button, it was thought to have no bearing on the
case, and was accordingly thrown aside. After the state-
ment, however, the button was remembered, and the arti-
cle, fortunately, has been kept in sets custody. It bean
unmistakeable evidence of having passed through the fire,
and although whole when found, has now to some extent
crumbled away. A distinct segment, however, still remains.
The disclosure of this little incident on Friday naturally
tended to increase the excitement in the case. It is un-
doubtedly a likely enough thing that the button was thrown
into the fire previous to the fatal encounter ; and the fact
that dressed shirts were actually banging over a screen ro the
kitchen that night may favour the supposition that the de-
ceased, in dressing them, threw a loose or broken button into
the fire. It may also be said that if Jessie M`Lachlan's
story is true, we ought to find, not one, but several buttons."
We have just been informed that Mrs. M'Lachlan is preg-
nant.

MELANCHOLY Dairu OF A LADY. —An inquest
was held at Dritcbet, near Windsor, on Saturday last, by Mr.
George A. Charsley, the deputy-coroner for Bucks, on the
body of Mrs. Margaret Write's, the wife of a gentleman re-
siding near Tottenham. Colonel Thomas Siemer° said the
deceased was hie sister-in-law, and they were both on a visit
to Mr. Fowler, of Southley.house, Detchet, the father of
the deceased. She had exhibited a little excitement, but
was under no restraint. On Wednesday night, a little before
eleven o'clock, she retired to rest, and on the following
morning at eight o'clock the servant came to tell him that
she could not get into the bedroom of the deceased. Witness
told the gardener to enter the room by a ladder *seed
against the window. Deoessed was not there, but footeters
were afterwards discovered below the bedroom window, and
there was a broken branch of a tree which convinced him
that deceased bad eacapcd in that way. After examining
the grounds and shrubbery, and obtaining no trace of her,
witness sent a man in a punt to search the water, in which she
was shortly afterwards discovered. Deceased was about fifty
eight years old. The two windows in her bedroom were
about n feet from the ground, and very smell. Could
swigs no reason why she should commit suicide. The jury
after a long consultation returned a verdict of " Found
drowned in the river Thames, without any marks on her
body, but by what means she came into the river there was
no evidence to show."

THE Sewsits.—Last night, in consequence of the
Leavy mins, the sewers in the south-western district over-
flowed, and caused considerable dansaga The water stood
three or four feet deep in the basement stories of some of
the houses in Eaten and Belgrave-squares.

MARKET&

TALLOW.--litmutes Eviornme—Tbo market WU
steady to-day. Priam cloud as follows ; —Spot. pew,
48s. 3d. ; ditto, old, 475. 9d. to 495. ; October to Decem-
ber, 48s. 3d. to 48e. dd. ,• Dumber, 495. ; Josuary to
Mardi, 49a. 3d. to 49a. U. Delivery to last evening,
1,230 casks ; arrivals, ditto, 1,444 max

OOTTON.—lavesroot, Si,.t 27.—The business today
ia not large, with a quiet but steady market. The sale. are
3,000 ballacluding 1,180 Americas, TM. to ; 1,500
Bunt, 15. . to 19d. ; 140 ',avast), 27d. to 34d. ;30
Petaam, . ; 160 liameheas, 26€1., of which 2,000 are tee
speculation aadexport. Today'. import 1 6,406 balm.

COTTON GOODS.—Mascithermt, Serf. 27.—We have
rarely had such an utter abeam of business is this market
as during the week which chase to-day. To say that homi-
ness his bean as flat here as it has been in the Liverpool
cotton market would be to say a great deal, for the sales
than ow day this week did not reach 350 bale—a state of
things not in the memory of airy are now living, perhaps,
as haying occurred before. The total sales of the week are
summed up at 10,210 balsa, of which the greater part hays
bees sold for speculation sod export. Down to Thursday
prim had gradually declined about ld. per lb., but the
American news caused a partial mover, yesterday is value.
The course of this market bashers much theatres. Prices were
I tolerably well maintained, but in some kinds of cloth, in-
cluding 8 lb. 40-inch shirtinp (which had previously bees
most &Sorted by the speculative excitement), sellers might
have been found at Is. to la. 6d. under the extreme rates
attained early in the month. The market for all clothe is
rather firmer this morning, and the prim asked puerally
ars within a fraction of the highest point. Yarns have
maintained their value rather more steadily than cloths.
There has been exceedingly little arenas in them, and
nearly all that has been reported has been in descriptions
suitable for the home trade. Shippers are doing little or
nothing either in yarns or cloths. The large arrivals of
Surat cotton at Liverpool, yeeterday, amounting to 54,647
bales, have had but little Whet upon the market to-day,
but may possibly led to 1101110 cheap next week.

WOOLLEN CLOTH.—llene, Sem 21.—The markets
Chia morning were both numerously attended, and several
=panels dseasonable fabrics met with parchment. The
la the Cipleared-ball wee mainly for fancy ooatinp,
with a whaling of tweedeand =shoos ; that in the White-
hall far witeeys is various Myles, and other autumn goods.
Plain cloths sot much implied after.

HARDWARE.—B7IIMISCHAX, Barr. 27.—The trade of
this town is in a tolerably healthy state ; manufacturers
generally report that business is eltesamdf, and has in every
respect very mach improved cow with its condition
two or three mouths ago. In the most important
branches the manufactory, have sufficieot orders in to keep
their hood, employed at full time ; gouda are not being
made up for stock, and in many instances then are orders
beforethod on the books. The reaction whisk be. taken
place is principally in the boon trade, but in the mane
of the week the merchant. have gives out man
orders. There is • slight stir in the continental trade,
including some fresh orders in of late on account of Francet;
to America there is a moderate amount of hardness in •
class of articles which cannot be dispensed with, and of
which stores have been allowed to run out. Themoonnts
as to the state of trade in the adjoining district are more
encouraging ; the caatiog trade is pretty good, and in yeas
other of the principal branches there is full employment.
The needle sinkers of Redditch are busy. The iron works
are most of them in full operation, sad idioms of them
there is • scarcity of labour.

CORN.—CANIIIIIDOZ, SM. 27.—Our Market wu very
dull to-day for wheat, and rather cheaper. Other corn

NEWCASTLFUPON-TTNE, SEPT. 27.—At our market this
morning we bad a better supply of wheat from the grower?,
and the couditioo was so indtffersot sod prices so wiiog
that it is difficult to quote the decline, there being a ?aria-
tioo of fully 14s. per pr. between the highest cud lowest
point. Upon south country new we quote a redaction since
this day so'onight of 2s. per qr., and folly ss much upon

NORWICH, &pr. 27.-There wee a very full attend-
ance of farmers at this market to-day, but oomparatively
little wheat offering ; the supply sold principally upon
the terms of this day se'nnight, but prices were in

OXFORD. Seer. 27.—Wheat was in very great supply but
many of the samples of new were not in tint rate cgtion;
buyers, too, were plentiful, but there seemed a general indis•
position to purchase at present rates, sod as farmers would
not lessen prices the market was the dullest Oxford has sees
for months. Quotations were as follows :—Old white wheat,
555. to 60e. per qr. ; red, 525. to 575. ; white, new, 524. to
58e. ; red, 48s. to 54a. The trade for new barley has hardly
commenced ; there were many parcels offering, lota of which
were in a damaged state ; pness ruled from Ms. to 40s ;
oats varied from 21s. to 30s. • beans, old, 42.. to 445. ; new,

hood for 6a. per sack ; best flukes, pinked, from Bs. to 10s.
The disease in this necessary vegetable in this locality, it is
gratifying to mentiot, has spread very little since OW lest
notice of it ; large plots of potatoes bare been dug up with
scarcely half a dozen bad ones.
PETERBOROUGH, Burr. 27.—The decline in prices causes
us to have less wheat offering at our market to-day. AU
dry samples are a ready sale, and, in some instances, at
more money than last week. Out.of-onedition lots hard to
sell. Barley la. to 2s. per qr. lower. Oats and beans both
easier to boy.

READTNO, SEPT. 27.—The supply this day Wl' an averse
one, and the condition of the wheat generally improved.
'Pb. attendance was good, but the demand was veryslow,
and prices have a drooping tendency. In other grain the
business WWI only nominal.
Roans?'" SEPT. 27.—The stands at this Corn Exchange
were well supplied with wheat, the majority of the samples
being new, and all in pretty fair condition. Business, how.
ever, was exceedingly dull, and although holders were die.
ed to accept Is. to 24. per qr. lees money, the eonnesion
ale not lead to anything like a brisk business. For beet
samples of new white the terms wen 545. to Ms., and ha.
tenor 524. to 545. ; best red was 50e. to 545., sod other kinds
465. to 50a per quarter. There wee a large supply of barley

295., and other kinds 23e .to 265. Beans beery at 40s. to
425. per quarter. In peas there was little doing.
WARMINSTIR. Sept. 27.-At this corn market to-day
business' io wheat was heavy, at prior slightly under the
quotations of the past week. New wheat is still much out
of condition and cannot be disposed of. The quotations for
fair qualities were to-day Ma to 61s. Very little demand
fur barley; prices from 325. to Ms. Oats, prices at from

22. to 22.. Beans cautious to bare a good sale at tamer
prices, 40s. to 40s. • sew Weals sell at about 435. ]lice weather is needed to secure the late crops, a grs,d
quantity of which is still nut. The last vomit has not hero

vale of foreign to report for the week. Our market has not
been quite so inactive as of late end purchasers have short
more diapcsition to operate in all uticles. Wheat—lrish .s

CATTLE.—CAsimig, Bum 27.—This being the show
day here for Barash Hill, the number of stock in our
111111,k4 was very large. Lots were early on the ground,
and throughout the forename large droves continued to arrive,

of beasts from local grazing was rely maap., but three

Very few buyers were on the ground during the early
