SUSPECTED .VCRDER.

Considerable sensation has been caused in the
town of Torquay, Devonshire, by the report of a mysterious
murder of a child. It appears that a few days ago a pack-
age arrived at the South Devon Railway station, at Torquay,
beat Reading, in Berkshire, wrapped in brown paper and
diee-ted to •• Mr Stark, Elm-grove, Torquay, Devonshire,"
Sanders, the parcel deli rerer, war however unable to find
mat the house described. Indeed, there is no math plate cabin
ha the town or its vicinity. l'reaumicg there might be a
atistake in the direction of the package, he took it to Mr.
Stark, ironmonger, on the Strand. lir. John Btark took in
the package, but expressed his surprise at receiving it from
Reading as none was eapected. Ile took off
the paper covering, and then came te a small
boa, which on being partly opened, he found to
his burpthe and horror, to contain the body of a child ap-
parently new born. lie immediately gave inlormation to
Mr. Kelley, auperintendent of police, who thought it advi-
sable to despatch the body back to Reading, and send a
telegraphic despatch to the authorities in reference to the
discovery. An icquest has sines been held, at e, hich Thos.
Henry Davis, a porter et the Great Western Railway, Read-

she replied "Oh ! dear no, there is nothing to pay !" and
left the office inimediately. Mr. Raiford, a surgeon, said

THE POLICE COURTS.

WORSHIP-STREET.

Thomas 11-Inuell, a rough looking weather-beaten man,
was brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt on the charge of having
been found trespassing upon the Eastern Counties Rail-
wa y.
Inspector Gavin, of the railway police, suited that shortly
before 2 o'clock that morning the prisoner was discovered
by one of their porters lying fast asleee across the rails,
abeut 200 yards from the Shoreditch Station, and in the
immediate track of au approaching train. On being re-
moved from his perilous position the prisoner refused for
some time to give any account of himself, but it was at
length elicited from him that he had only returned a few
days previous from I'ort Phillip in Australia, where be had
amassed a large amount of treasure at the adjacent gold
diggings. Atter squandering away about 301. on the first
day after his arrival, he made his way to the residence of
1 his parents, at Cambridge, with whom he appeared to have
had some serious misunderstanding, as be acknowledged
that he left them abruptly on the following morn-
ing, and, as be expected that they were " hunting
after him," he determined to apead the night upon
the railway, where he was most likely to be secure
from interruption. On searching the prisoner, upwards
of 1201. in bank notes and gold were foucd in his posses-
sion, besides which he gave them to understand that he had
left two or three bags of gold dust in safe keeping at Cam-
bridge. The inspector added, that from the wildness of
manner displayed by the prisoner, and the incoherence of
his language, he had every reason to believe that his mind
was partially atficted, or that he was labouring under deli-
rium tremens.
Mr. Tyrwhitt, addressing the prisoner—What was your
reason for parting so suddenly from your friends in the
country ?
Prisoner—l said nothing about friends ; they are only
my relations. As for friends, they are scarce commo-
dities.
Several other questions were addressed to the prisoner,
which he answered in such a rambling and irrelevant man-

ner, that
Mr. Tyrwhitt ordered him at once to be removed to the
workhouse, with directions that every attention should be
paid to him ; and directed the inspector in the meantime
to retain possession of his money until hi was in a fit state
of mind to be safely entrusted with it.

COUNTRT NEWS, AND WHAT IT SUGGESTS.—
Pleasant it was to read how the children of the parish
church of Wagsworth, after their annual "treat of tea and
spice cake, tastefully and bountifully set out," were " de-
lipted exceedingly " with games, and at last " marched to
1% agswerth Hall, when each boy and girl was presented
with a pasty by the Misses Jones, who, it is pleasing to say,
take a great interest in the affairs of the schools." Most
pleasing ! as all records are of childish happiness. Bat are
these children to grow up in that sort of life of which we see
the light reflected from the Brock op Standard I—are
they to be takers of quack medicine, strutters in
horsceloths at knur and spell, gapers at uniforms?
—will they grow up dull-witted and tedious? The
little girl who dances over the spring grass to Wagsworth
Hall, will she ever grow to be an old woman, like the old
woman of whom I found reported in the same paper, that
she lived beside a sewer, and that she got a plank from the
nest town to put over the sewer, to be a bridge by which
she should go out and home, and that she summoned the
overseer of the drains for kicking her plank into the sewer,
and causing it there to swim about for a fortnight before it
was got out by two men, who spent half a day over the
job; and all because she would not pay—the obstinate old
soul—a penny a•year for the right of way? Will this
plump, fresh, light hearted little beauty ever become such
a cross old English woman, living by a sewer ?
This bold•eyed, hot- faced boy with cricket bat over
his shoulder—will he ever grow to be a game-
keeper, and lay a bare-skin stuffed with straw by way of
ground-bait upon his neighbour's premises, as I perceived by
another report in this paper that a gamekeeper did ; or
will he grow up such a lout as to fire at such a hare-skin.
as I !CC by the paper a poor silly fellow did ; and will Muter
Jones—who can now run merrily about with other children,
carry his tray of pasties—will he ever be so dense a block-
head as the English justice is, who fined such „st man—as I
see by the paper such a man was fined—use pounds and
costs far tiring at the wisp of straw, " because his desire,
beyond doubt, was a dainty meal from a roasted hare "

dinner in the neighbourhood of Nosebro', within bearing of

THE CASE OF PHILLIPS THE CABMAN.

Lord D. STUART brought this subject "gain before
the house, mid repeated the narrative of the case, with
which the public is familiar.
Viscount PALMERSTON—Sir, if my noble friend had
given me notice that he would ask this question, I would
have come down to the house with the same documents
that I brought the other day. (A laugh.) The facts of
the case, as stated to me by the magistrate, are simply
these : A person who had hired a cab complained that the
cabman hail charged a greater fare than the distance gone
over justified. The complainant stated the point from
which he started, the route taken, and the point at which
the journey ended. The magistrate states that,
from his own knowledge of the distance, be was
satisfied that the charge was excessive, and that the distance
was not such as the cabman allegcd it to have been. Ile
was therefore going to fine the cabman for overcharge, but
he states that ho offered to allow him the option of having
the ground measured. Now I understand that when a
measurement takes place the rule is that each party depo-
sits 51. to abide the result of the decision. The magistrate
soites that the cabman &Wined the measurement. He did
not understand him to have done so on tho ground
that he bad nut got the 62. to lay down; but he
declined g Ily, because he did not wish to have
the measurement made—whereupon the magistrate Ms-

pus d the fine. That is all the case; -and upon
that statement, it does not appear to me that the magistrate
was wrong. I also looked at the map and measured the
route of the cab with a pair of compasses as far as I could—
(laughter and cheers)—and it did appear to me that the dis-
tance was not greater than the complainant had been ready
to pa_y fur. Ile offered 4s. Gd., which implies fire miles,
and I don't think that, startinv from Bromptnn and ending
at Waterloo-bridge, be could go even by a circuitous route
more than five miles. (Hear, hear.)

FLAd.

Mr. MACARTNEY made some inquiries in reference to
the permis‘ion given to the Royal Western Yacht Club of
Ireland by the Admiralty, to carry the whi.e ensign,
although tne taelu•iee privilige to • that ensign Lad
been accorded, to 1b29, to the squadsuu of vie Royal
Yacht Club.
Sir J. ORATIAM deprecated the practice of taking up
the time of the house with such trivial math re, but denicd
that any exclusive right had 1.1,cn given the Royal Yacht
Club. When be wss formerly at the Admiralty permission

bad been given to the Royal Western Yacht Club, with
the sanction of King William IV., to carry the white
bargee, nod that permiasion had been revoked.

THE CLITHEROE ELECTION INQUIRY.—COM-
MITTAL OF A WITNESS TO NEWOATE.
Mr. G. A. HAMILTON brought up a report ot the
Clitheroe Election Committee in reference to the witness
R. Towlir, wilso was committed some days ago to the cue-
, tody of the Serleant-at-Arms stating that the committee
having reconsidered the whole of Towler's evidence, and
compared it with that of the other witnesses, were unable
to arrive at any other conclusion than that he had been
guilty of wilful p ication with the desire to mislead
the committee. The hon. member moved that the witness
Hobert Fowler be committed to Newgate, and that Mr.
Speaker do issue his warrant for that purpose.
Mr. FRENCH wished to know why they were to depert
from the ordinary course of directing the prosecution ot the
party for perjury ?
Mr. HAMILTON said the crime of which the man had
been guilty was not perjury but prevarication, and until
the house saw the evidence it would be premature to order
a prosecution.
The motion was put and agreed to.

chokes, are still kept up, and there are some good French
Cherries end Apricots in the market. English Cherries
are very plentiful; but, owing to so much wet,
they are in bad condition. Greengage and Orleans
Plums, front the South of France, fetch 41. per
basket. There is also a large quantity of foreign
Pines in the market. New Oranges from Marseilles have
just made their appearance, and for so early in the season
they arc very good. Young Carrots and Turnips fetch
front to 61. per hunch. Green Peas are very good, at
from 6.1. to Is. per quart shelled, and from 2s. 6d. to ss.
per bushel sieve. Potatoes are becoming very much dis-
eased. Mushrooms are scarce. Cut flowers consist of Pelar-
goniums, Fuchsias, Bases, Cyclamens, Mignonette, Cine-
/arias, Flake, and Carnations. •

METALS.—Mr. Moate'a circular states that a
considerable rise has taken place in Scotch pig iron, many
having " beared " the market have been buying to cover
their sales; but it is well known that many thousands of
tons have yet to be bought to make good their deliveries.
The market opened in the early part of the week at 555. per
ton, and clone i yesterday at 685., buyers for immediate
cash, t a mixed numbers and good merchantable brands.

ASSESSED TAXES BILL.

On the order of the day for committee on this bill,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER stated
what amendments (on the paper) he would accept. Refer-
riot to those amendments, notice of which had been gives.
the right hon. gentleman said that the bill must be =ha
Mined in its integrity, but he would agree to ono paint
which had been strongly urged on him. He would
from duty those farmer's carriages which were bon=
need for conveyance of goods and material, and not foe
pleasure. This would apply to market gardeners' carts.
Some gentlemen said farmer, had to use carriages to go to
ebureb ; but he could not give an exemption to omegas
time used on that ground. Under the circumstances, la
asked the house to go into committee for the insertion
the admitted amendments. Ho would then reprint the bfls
sad take a discussion on a recommittal or on the report.
TM bill was then committed: the alterations agreed to
were made : thp Chancellor of the Exchequer incidentally
stating that the whole question as to the best mode of col-
lecting the direct taxes was under the consideration of the
government.
The house resumed.

FREE TRADE IN CABS.
Mr. BOWYER, in rising to put a question to the govern-
ment, of which he had given notice, observed that it wu a
received principle in political economy, and experience had
shown it to be right, that ell interference by legislative
enactments with the price of labour, aa of any other com-
modity, was injurious. That principle had been applied
not only to all things which were sold or manufactured, but
also to some public conveyances, such, for instance, as
steam-boats and omnibuses. Of course, he was speaking
only of the question of price—a question that was entirely
apart from that of regulation. Bearing this in mind, ha
begged to ask whether the government would agree to the
appointment of a select committee to inquire whether the
principle of unrestricted competition should be applied to
cab fares ?
_______ _ _ _ _

Lord J. RUSSELL—At the present stage of the session,
I should not consider it advisable that a select committee
should ►e appointed on that subject.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

There was a general improvement in the condition of
business in America at the time of the Europa's departure.
In the New York money market a marked alteration for
the better had taken place ; and the movement in monetary
affairs was much more considerable than was reported in
our last advice,.
The stock market at New York evinced considerable
firmness in prices, with a decided upward tendency.
Owing to advice' received from England, the market
for breadstuff' was in a very fluctuating condition. The
number of transactions reported was small, and prices
showed an inclination to recede to the extent of about 12e.
per barrel. Western Canal flour was quoted at 4 dols. 50c,
to 4 dols. 62ic. per barrel. Of Indian corn we have no quo-
tations.
In the New York cotton market a tolerable amount of
business had been transacted, the previous quotations being
steadily maintained, notwithstanding the recently received
advice, from England. At the time of the Europa's de-
parture the following were the rates; New Orleans and
Mobile, mid. fair to fair, 12c. to 12jc. per lb.; Uplands,
mid. fair to fair, lids. to 12c. per lb. The excess in the
receipts was still decreasing.
In provisions the market was less active, though the
prices previously quoted had been maintained.
Freights were easier than was reported by the last
steamer.

THE FRAUDS ON TILE ISLE OF NIGHT

SAVINGS' BANK.

Yelf, the fraudulent savings' bank actuary, in the
Isle of.,Wight, has been fully committed for trial on three
distinct charges of forgery, and one of larceny.: He
robbed the bank chiefly by forged cheques, many hundreds
of which he must have presented to the directors of the
bank during the eleven years he was defrauding the bank
of above 8,0001. Had the directors in any one instance
when Yelf presented a forged cheque looked at the
index of the bank ledger to see if the drawer's
name appeared there, or that he had any effects,
the forgery must have been detected. When the
frauds in the Rochdale savings' bank were made
known, and the government ordered en examination of the
affairs of the savings' banks throughout the country,
the directors of the Isle of Wight saving.' bank entrusted
Yelf with the examination who pronounced accounts
of coarse correct, and the directors were satisfied. Yelf is
14501. in debt to the Stamp-office, and the stamp authori-
ties have seized upon his property, which amounts to about
10001., and there will not be a farthing for his Savings
Bank creditors. A poor old Isle of Wight shepherd, named
Cass, now above 700d years of age, and who has all his lifle-
m een economi
, is a from Yell ' defalcatiou.
nearly life Cass struggledsuff harderer and saved,s after many
years' exertion, 2001. This he lost through the failure of
the party in whose kande it wu placed. By renewed
efforts he scraped together about 1001., and placed it in a
private bank in the Isle of Wight. The banker broke, and
the poor shepherd lost all again. He once more saved and
deposited in the Newport Savings Bank, and the poor old
man iv again a loser.

the grand cupola of the Holy Sepulchre. Finslly,
the Porte is required to make no changnat Jerusalem '
without the consent of Russia. The Debate observes
that this latter elapse would be practically to annul
the treaty of 1610, and that, therefore, it may be
easily guessed that M. de Laeour protested against
these pretensions.
The fitting out of the Turkish fleet still continued,
and preptrtione at other points of the empire were
said to be making. Prince Menechikoff had an-
nounced in a kind of official manner, that Russia
had discontinued her armament', but it was soon
found that they were continued with the same acti-
vity. On explanation being demanded from the
Russian embassy, the reply is said to have been that
the change was the natural consequence of the news
transmitted to St. Petersburg of the sailing of the
French and English fleets for the Levant. Lord
Stratford sent off the Tiger steamer in the night of
the 13th, with pressing despatches to Admiral Dun-
dee, and so unexpected was her departure that several
of her officers and crew, who were on shore on leave,
were left behind.
The last accounts from the French squadron at
Salamis, state that Rear-Admiral Romain-Besfoesks,
had joined it with the Gomer, steam frigate, and the
Heron, steamer. The steam corvettes Chaptal and
Caton, were at Constantinople. Vice-Admiral La
Busse, Rear-Admiral Jacquinot, and other officers of
the squadron, had dined with the King and Queen
of Greece, who treated them with great attention.

TURKEY.

Telegraphic despatches, as well as adviees of less
recent date, continue to arrive from Constantinople,
and attest, somewhat superfluously, the continuance
of tranquillity in the Turkish capital.
The correspondence of the Daints contains some
information relative to the convention proposed by
Russia on the subject of the Holy Shrines, which, if
accurate, is important. A draft of this convention
has been laid before the French ambassador by the
Porte; and, according to the D.,Guts, ltussia will
not be contented with a simple lirman, but an
oiler to be put on an equal footing with
France with regard to the protection of Christians,
at Jorastiletn, she dr manibi a special convention,

custody of the keys of the church of Bethlehem, ex-
cluding the Latins from the tomb of the Virgin,

refugees in the Orisons, the Italians in Schaffhausen,
