TOR BACTO.V MURDER.

William Flack, who is left for execution for the
murder at the Barton Rectory, was to here bad the ex-
treme sentence of the law carried into effect upon bits on
Saturday, but in consequence of the inability of Calush,
the executioner, to reach Ipswich in time from Scotland,
the execution is postponed till Wednesday next
In answer to an applicatiou for a commutation of the
sentence, on the ground of Flack's extreme youth and
lamentable ignorance, which bat been addressed to the Se-
awry of State, Mr. F. W. Hall, of the Orwell Works, has
received the following reply :
Whitehall, 11th August, 1353.
"Si em directed by Viscount Palmenton to acknow-
ledge the receipt of your petition on behalf of William
Flack, preying that this convict's life may be spared, on
the ground that his offence is, in a great immure, attribu-
table to his want of education; and I ant to acquaint you
that Lord Palmerston apprehends that it requires no parti-
cular instruction to make • man feel that a barbarous
murder is an atrocious crime, and his lordship minis that
bona see no resent to justify him in advising any inter-
feron, in this case with the due course of law.

DURRAII, FRIDAY.
Early yesterday morning a most shocking event
(Keened in the vicinity of Ferryhill, on a small line which
connects several works and pits with the York, Newcastle,
sod Ilerwick Railway. It appears that a party of pitmen
and some boys, who were on their way to work at a new
colliery at Whitworth, occupied a kind of coal truck, which
was being propelled be a light engine up the branch line.
The men were rather late, and in order to arrive in time
they travelled rather faster than usual. On nearing the
Tedhoe Iron Works, and while pursuing this quick speed,
they came in contact with a heavily laden miners' train,
which was coming down the same line of rails as they were
going op. Inconsequence of the heavy character of the morn-
ing neither train could be observed until they were close upon
each other, and they came in moot tremendoth contact.
The waggon in whith the poor fellows were, being in front
of the eagiue, received the full force of the shock. It was
knocked into many pieces, and the whole of the unfortu-
nate occupants, nine men and several boys, were injured
more or less. Three were found dead. Much blame is
attributed to the man who drove the engine behind the
men. The goods train had a regular time for leaving, and
it is said that he ought to have known that she was ap-
proaching, and not to have proceeded at a rate which would
prevent him bringing up in time to avoid collision. An
inquest was opened to-day on the bodies of the sufferers, but
it had not concluded when this report was despatched.
The driver and stoker of the goods engirt escaped without
injury.

REPRESENTATION OF SOUTH thenrroupsmat.—
The Hon. E. R. Littleton, it is understood, will be elected
without opposition to fill the vacancy in the representation
of South Staffordshire,' occ•sioned by the appointment of
Major-General Anson to the command of the troops of the
Bengal Presidency. Mr. Littleton has visited Wolver-
hampton and ether parts of South Staffardsbirs, and has
been exceedingly well received. The nomination will take
place at Lichfield on Monday next. Mr. Littleton will be
nominated, we believe, by Mr. W. 0. Foster, as the repre-
sentative of the iron trade, and seconded by the lion. Mr.
Gough, son of Lord Cslthorpe, as the representative of, the
agricultural interest—Sfafforde4irs Advsrtiodr.
A MAN ATTACKED DT POLECATS IN MONTOOME-
, aTINIIIII.—About a week ago, while John Roderick, of
Llanidloes, carpenter, was returning home from Panty-
genial, in the parish of Llanwnog, he was attacked by a num-
ber of polecats, which lit him in several pieces, and one
crept up his body and bit him ly on the shoulder. With
difficulty he made his escape, and upon arriving at Panty-
peal he aroused the inmates, who set out in chase of the
=Maids, and killed four. The poor fellow is not yet re-
nomad from the fright and injuries he reeeived.—Shrnos-

REPRESENTATION OF SOUTH WARWICKSHMS.--
Mr. Evelyn Shirley offers himself to succeed Lord Brooke
in the representation of this division of the county. Mr.
Shirley's political opinions are based " on a sincere attach-
ment to our venerated institutions in Church and State."
There is no probability of any opposition.

The Sydney steamer has also taken out 5,000/. in
specie for Australia; the Julia, 8,0001., for Adelaide;
the Orinoco, 6,0381. in specie, for the West Indies;
the Tay, 63,9601. in coin, for the Brazils (besides
13,0001. worth of jewellery); the Madrid, 15,6301.,
for Lisbon; and the City of London, 48,9001., chiefly
for Constantinople, of which 1,0601. was in
silver, and the rest in gold. By the cour-
tesy of Messrs. Gibbs, Bright, and Company, of
Liverpool, we are informed that the amount of specie
taken out by the Great Britain for Australia was
only about 5,0001., but a very large quantity of
jewellery was shipped. The known exports of the
week, so far as returns are obtainable, are thus raised
to nearly 260,0001. We have to repeat, however,
that the shipments of gold to the Continent from the
Kentish ports have continued. During the last fort-
night more than half a million sterling in Australian
gold alone must have passed by this route, the mar-
kid being now bare of the late Australian supplies.
It is confidently stated that, during the last two
months and upwards, notwithstanding the large
arrivals of gold, scarcely any has been presented to
the Bank for purchase. As the demand for gold for
remittance continues in excess of the receipts, the
downward movement of the Bank's stock ought not
to excite surprise, although it may be viewed with
some degree of uneasiness. During the last six
weeks the aggregate reduction of the Bank's stock is
1,230,729!., being an average of 205,1211. per week.
Judging from present appearances, the decline may
be expected to proceed further.
Her Majesty's ship Dtedalus, which sailed from
Rio Janeiro for England on the 13th July, is known
to have on board 700,000 dollars in specie.
The letters from Rio Janeiro report that the
money market there was much relieved from its late
pressure. Discounts had been ruling high, generally
at 10 per cent.; but at the last dates capital was
coming in more freely, and all engagements arising
out of previous transactions had been punctually
met.
