MURDER OF A POLICEMAZ.

HA LESWORIII, SUFFOLK, WEDNINDA V,
Yesterday great excitement Was created Co the
town from the fact that since that morning e polisemaa bag
disappeared and was supposed to have been murdered. The
same evening the body was found, death evidently hieing
resulted from foul play. It seems that the murder.'
officer, Ebenezer Tye, who is about 22 years of age, vent
on duty as usual on Monday night, and the last tine be
I known to have been seen alive was about 4 o'clock en
Tuesday morning, when he was spoken to by a beotlier
officer. His beat was in the town of Haleawoeth. As he
did not report himself as usual on Tuesday at the
police station, • search was made, which resulted
m the finding of the body in • shallow stream,
which runs through the town. The poor man
was lying on his back with his bands in front of him, ore g
when he died he had bees endeavouring to force back some
person with whom he was struggling. Close by were his
handcuffs and his hat, whilst his staff wee found in the
osier-ground which bordered the stream. A man named
John Ducker has been apprehended charged with the
murder, and also a man earned Stephen Wsins and the
wife of the latter. The facts against Ducker seem to be
these---that about els o'clock on Tuesday morning the de.
ceased and Ducker were heard by • woman, who was going
out washing, mourning et tbsoorner of a court called Clarke's.
buildrms,' which leads from Chedisten.strest to the stream
when tits body was found. It is known that the deceased
was watching Ducker, who bears • very had cha-
racter. From a truss of bay. found in Ducker's
house, which is situated in Clarke's-bnildisgs,
it is supposed that the deceased stopped Ducker and en.
deavoured to search him, that Ducker made off, ran through
the water, and Tye catching him in the osier grounds they
bad • scuffle there. Thee it is thought Dueler succeeded
in breaking from theeleceased and ran into the water, where
Tye followed him, and after • further muffle Tye was
knocked down, and held under the water till he was dead.
The face of the deceased bean marks of many blows, bat
none which would seem of sufficient violence to came death.
Ducker is more punished than the deceased. He is • man
between 60 said 70 years of age, but o f great strength.
About twelve months since the deceased received very
severe injuries when endeavouring to secure two men who
were committing • felony. An inquest is to be opened
to-eight.

(THIB DAT.)

CLERKENWELL.
A P.Ult OF VIOLINT NFJGHBONIS.

Jowl Orsffiths, of 28, Albion-street, King's-crow, was
helots Mr. Barker with unlawfully disturbing
2MedAllen, of 18, Upper North-street, Islington, by
knocking at her door without lawful excuse.
The complainant, who was gaily attired, and her husband,
who appeared in the witness-box with a broken nose, said
that last week the defendant borrowed some money of her
to get her husband's clothes out of pawn, to enable him to
go to a bean-feast. Whilst the husbands were at the bean-
fond some words ensued, sod when they came home the
complainant's husband would not speak to the defendant, as
she was a bad lot. When the defendant paid the complain-
ant the money she had borrowed the complainant told her
never to speak to her again. This riled the temper of the
defendant, and on Tuesday last she went and knocked at
the complainant's door for two hours. This mused a large
mob of persons to assemble, some of whom knocked the
complainant's husband on the nose.
The defendant said the boot was on the other leg. (A
laugh.) The complaisant, who was old enough to be her
mother, bad kept her out at places of amusement until
2 o'clock in the morning, and wanted to pass as her (de-
fendant's) sister, but when she found that that would not
peas as current coin, and envying her her good looks, she
used to say she was her (defendant's) mother. (A laugh.)
A • she would not put up with this any longer the com-
plainant was annoyed ; hence the r reseot charge.
Mr. Barker said it was a foolish summoos, and ordered
the defendant to pay the costs, and to be hound over to
keep the peace.

MINES-(THIS DAY.)

Two o'Cioan.
There is very little business going forward in the
mining market to-day, as is generally the case oa
Saturday. Wheal Ludcott shares are ex-
tremely heavy, and have receded about 21. per
share, being now quoted 12i to 13. In the
absence of transactions, the prices of other mining
shares are nominally quoted the same as yesterday.
Devon Great Consols shares are marked in the
Stock Exchange, 445 ; East Can Brea, 14e ; and
North Downs, 31.
With the exception of a decline in United
Mexican, which are marked 71, there is no altera-
tion of importance in either foreign or colonial
mining shares.

market is extracted from the circular of Messrs.
Von Dadelszen and North :

SUSPECTED INCENDIARISM AT UPPER CLAPTON.— El
(TIES Day.)—This morning about 2 o'clock a mounted ex- It
arrived at the various fire stations of the Loudon 1111
bringing intelligence that an extensive fire was .."'
gon the farm of Mr. H. &elfin, the great purveyor ra
of milk to the metropolitan householders in the City. A ga
police•oonstable in passing the °plaids of the farm yard IM
noticed a body of fire issuing from two large ricks of hay
standing on the homestead. He immediately raised an 11l
alarm, and sent for the engines, which soon arrived. _
":
The flames continued for hones to progress and could not
be extinguished until a serious amount of mischief was 10; done. From inquiries made there seems not the least doubt le
but the fire was wilfully caused by some evil disposed per. is
son. One half of the stacks were destroyed. The property "
was insured in the Imperial Fire-office. se
THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY.--(THIS DAY.)-- :
This morning the ices for mooing the Brat train 4
through from Pad= to Victoria-street were nearly 10
completed, and there is no doubt the permanent way will 0
be sufficiently finished to enable the directors to p over the
lime on Monday, preparatory to the halflearly meeting,
which will take place the following day. The water is now
out of the tunnel, and nearly the whole of the ballast for
the permanent way is down. The stations at King's-cross
and at Victoria-street are rapidly progressing towards com-
pletion.

THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.

TheUtnperature in the interior of the Exhibi•
tion yesterday approached almost to tropical inten-
sity. Fortunately, however, the attendance was a
Friday's attendance, and people had room to go
about and find the shady corners. It is almost
neatness to say that the domes were religiously
avoided. There w.us a slight fracas in the Picture
Gallery on the much-vexed stick-mid-umbrella
question. A member of the opposition having in-
sisted on entering the gallery armed with a stick,
and defied the attendant to eject him, the latter
accepted the challenge and removed the
I Finally, the case was brought before Mr. Lindon,
and the assertor of popular rights was with some
difficulty appeased without any compromise of the
Treat principle which is to be decided on the 6th
instant.

Our attention was arrested yesterday by a re-
markable contribution which has recently arrived
from the East, being part of the French " lout " of
the summer palace at Pekin. It is a human skull,
once the property of a rebellious reaping chief,
handsomely set as a drinking cup. It is elaborately
ornamented with gold, and has a golden lid chased
with wonderful elegance of design and a finish of
workmanship which might be sought fur in vain
in the best specimens of Parisian orfiivrerie. We
found the skull surrounded by a very curious
crowd, and heard various learned ethnological
iteerences drawn from its very limited circum-
ference.

We have no list of schools or public establish-
ments to record to-day, but expect soon to see
Saturday, at least, become the favourite day for
such visite, as we understand that in three weeks
from this date it is to be made a shilling day, the
half-crown fee to be transferred to Thunvlay in
each week. . . . .

The highest temperature yesterday, taken by
Negretti and Zambra's patent thermometers, was at
2.40 p.m. :—ln the nave, 73.7 ; in the galleries, 75.8.

FRENCH REINFORCEMENTS FOR

The armaments for Mexico are going on with
great activity, and a great number of vessels are
also being prepared for the same service. The

A communication from that port, of the 29th, says :

Further measures of urgency are being takes here for the
expedition to Mexico. The steam frigate Vauban, which
was in the first category of the reseeve, is now being fitted
out as a transport. The Gamer his been recalled from the
coast of Italy for the same purpose, and is to transfer her

HOUSE OF LORDS. —(THIS DAY.)
The LORD CHANCELLOR took hie seat as the woolsack
at 12 o'clock.

UNION BELIEF AID BILL.

Earl RlrfeiELL, is moving the second reading of this
lell, said be believed it was understood, from the notice
given by his noble friend (the Duke of Newcastle),
that it was not intended to go into discussion
that day, but that the discussion should be taken on lisping
into committee ou Monday. It was proposed also on Mon-
day, with the consent of their lordships, to move the sus.
pension of the etsoding orders, with the view of taking the
third reeding after the committee upon the same day.
Earl FORTE:Set' E said he had seen reports of speeches
,4 au inspector scut down to the Lancashire districts to
supersede the inspector there, which ha trusted bad not been
correctly reported, as they tended to break down the dis-
tinction between legal relief and charity, and deprecated, if
not actually deuounced, the application of the labour teat.
The enunciation of such priuciples was likely to make the
administration of the poor•law board sod its officers a source
of weakness, instead of an efficient means of giving
relief in times of distress ; cud this had been doneat a time
when the rates had not risen to anything like the amount
that they had in former periods of distress, especially in
1842, and when the rate of sickness and mortality was lower
than usual in the distressed districts.

Lord REDEt3DALE apprehended that thore would be
no objection to the mural!, proposed by the government, but
considered it unfortunate that their lordships had not the
power to make any amendment in the measure, as it came
from the Commons, it being a money bill.
The bill was then read a second time.

The Consolidated Fund (Appropriation) Bill, the Court
of Common Pleas (Officer for Acknowledgment of Deeds)
Bill, the Bankruptcy Act (IM4tl) Amendment Bill, and the
Burial Boards (Mortgage of R•rtea) Bill were reed • third
time and pared.
Lord REDESDALE moved that on Monday next the bill
or bills which are entered for consideration on the minute
of the day shall have the same precedence which bills have
on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
The notion was agreed to, and
Their lordships adjourned at five minutes to two o'clock.

SPAIN.

The Spanish cabinet appears to apprehend that
the next session of the Cortes may bring violent
debates. It is proposed by some of the opposition
to attack vigorously the part which General Prim
took in retiring from Mexico with his troops, and
thus leaving the field free for the sole action of the
French government. In this conjuncture M. Mon
has just refused, after mature reflection, the
presidency of the Congress. He was ambassador at
Paris at the moment when the Mexican expedition
had just been determined upon, and not having
hesitated to denounce as a false step, from the
moment when he received the news of it, the
re-embarkation of the Spanish troops, it would
have been difficult for him, he thinks, to preside
over a debate where he is liable to hear his own
conduct discussed.

AUSTRIA AND ITALY.
The Augsburg Gaunt, of the 11th, says :—'
learn that in the complaint which has been
addressed to the Piedmontese authorities respect.
iug the late incidents upon the frontier near
Mantua, it is stated that several Piedmontese
patrols have previously violated the Austrian ter-
ritory without receiving any punishment from their
government. The latter is urged to keep a better
watch over its agents, as in the contrary event
the Austrians will themselves repress acts of tbis
kind, and the guilty will have then to bear the
consequences of their conduct."

POLISH MISTING.

Yesterday being the eighth anniversary of the
death of Lord Dudley Coutte Stuart, a meeting of the
Polish Historical Society was held at Sumer-chambers,
Luke-street, St. Janice's, to commemorate this logs, now
classed among the national events in that country.
In the absence from London of the president, Colonel
Szyrme, the chair was occupied by the vice-president, Major
Sztnetriveigi, who, after having paid a tribute of grati-
tude to the memory of the deceased for the services rendered
by him to Poland, reviewed the most important events
which have lately occurred in that country, contrasting the
moral and dignified attitude of the people with the violent
and insensate policy pursued by the Russian govern-
ment, a policy calculated to exasperate the Pole*,
and drive then, to commit act% hitherto alien to their feel-
ings and their past history. Whilst deploring the attempts
at assassination made on the persons of the Grand Duke
Constantine and the Marquis Waelopolaki, which he attri-
buted to despair produced by witnessing the constant and
atrocious acts of violence perpetrated by the Russian
government, the chairman strongly reprobated the conduct
of those who had, in cold blood, approved of these
lamentable acts of madness. No greater delusion could
have been practised upon the British public, than
to assert that the Poles, as a body, desire or believe that
the cause of their country cau he promoted by such means.
In proof of this the speaker mentioned the recent
melancholy circumstances under which Count Andrew
Zamoyski, the acknowledged leader of the moderate and the
larger portion of the nation, had been ordered to quit the
country for representing the wants and wishes of the
Poles, who, so far from having recourse to any violent
measures, insist on obtaining their rights by hoomirable and
legal ways. He hoped by this declaration to remove the
usfavounible •on which might have been produced on
the public here by the statement be had alluded to, and to
wash off thestigma which might have attached to the Polish
name—a declaration due no less to the Pole, themselves
then to the people of these hospitable shores, whose sym-
pathy, aa that of their departed friend, they shall never
cease to cherish gratefully.
Major Gieigod, Captain Szumlanaki, and Captain Reenter,
also spoke to the rune effect, and the meeting separated
alter • vote of thanks to the chairman.

A BLOW AT THE AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE.

(From the New York Times, Nov. L)
Another important blow at the stave-trade was
dealt yesterday in the United States Circuit Court in this
city, in the conviction of Albert Horn for fitting out the
steamer City of Norfolk for that traffic. The evidence, as
given in court, showed that the cam was a most flagrant one.
It showed that Horn bought the vessel, paying .24C30 dol-
lars for her ; that she was run on one voyage to Havana
and back, and then was mint to St. Thomas, having bad
some 25,000 dollars more of repairs and outfit put on board
of her. At St. Thomaa the transfer, which is an almost uni-
versal accompaniment of these cases, took place, and the
vessel, after running to Barcelona (Venezuela), to get
water enough, sailed for the African coast, and
on arriving in the Bight of Benin took in eight
hundred negroes in broad daylight and sailed frr Cuba._
where she arrived with them. Having discharged them into
boats the steamer was abandoned by her crew, but was
shortly afterwards captured by a Spanish man-of-war,
which also captured most of the negroes.
Horn's defence, of course, was that he had nothing to do
with the vessel after she was sold, and be said also that
when be sect the vessel out be expected to charter her to
the Venezuelan government, to carry troops. The govern.
ment, however, showed that she carried out from
here nearly everything which was required for the
slave voysge ; that the transfer was clearly a sham
One, as no money was paid, sod the mate to whom
she was transferred testified that he had no interest in
the vessel. The government also proved declarations of
Horn here, that the vessel was going into that trade, and
that he war interested in the vessel ; and the Spaniard, to
whom the defence would have it appear that the venial was
really *old, testified that he did not buy her, but that the
Spanish captain ran away with her. The jury, on all the
evidence, were satisfied that Horn MIS one of the guilty
parties, and we have no doubt that their verdict was just.
Thus this enterprise, which was on the verge of success, and
would have been so profitable that the parties could afford
to throw away property worth fifty thousand dollars when
they thought it had succeeded, has culminated in disastrous
ruin for at least one of the parties.
We congratulate the community that at lut one of that
worst clam of offenders engaged iu this infamous traffic—
those New York traders who have fitted out and sent from
this port so many vessels to diagram our country, our
civilisation, and our Christianity—has been brought to
punishment. It seems as if it most be the finishing stroke
to the slave traffic out of this city. At any rate, it has re-
ceived such damage that i.he officers who bare shared in
inflicting it are entitled to the thanks of all who prize our
good name, or care for humanity.

win jam Hears, 36, wax indicted for stealing at Lambeth
• horse, the property of JUDOS Methuen.
The prisoner was undefended.
It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor, • fish-
monger, residing in the Denmark-road, Camberwell, that on
the ,ird instant he entrusted his black cob pony to the pri-
porter to take to the stables of a friend for the night. In-
stead of doing so, the prisoner rode the pony to the pre-
mixes of a Mr. liPClallan, living in Robert-street,
Britton, to whom he sold the animal for the sum of 2/. 10s.
The prosecutor added that he had never in any way author
rised the prisoner to sell the pony either to Mr. M'Clallan
or any other person.

Mr: M'Clillan said be knew the prisoner, and on
the 3rd instant he purchased the pony of him, and gave him
21. 106. for it. The prisoner gave him the receipt produced.
Poline.constable Pope, 32 P, said that 'le prisoner gave
himself up to witness on the charge of sterdini the prose-
cutor', pony, on the night of the Bth instant, and stated at
the same time that there had been some difference in money
matters between the prosecutor and himself, and that he
had sold the pony to pay himself.
The prisoner, on being called upon for his defence, said
that what the officer had stated was quite true. He had
some difference with the prosecutor, and finding he could
get no settlement he sold the pony.
The Deputy Chairnmu, in summing up, said it was a ques-
tins for the jury to consider whether the prosecutor autho-
rised the prisoner to sell hie pony. That was denied by him.
The jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict of
Guilty, and

THABLEEt.

Henry Finally Wilhelm Ter Harr a foreign Jew, who
gave his address, 144, Gloucester-street, Dublin, and de-
scribed himself as a merchant, was brought before Mr.
Woolrych, charged with smuggling 19165. of foreign manu-
factured tobacco and cigars.
The prisoner had been remanded to enable the Solicitor of
Custom, to sue for a penalty of 1001., and an information
was row exhibited, and Mr. Beverly, from the Customs'
solicitor's office, appeared on the part of the crown.
Mr. John Harris, an examining officer of Customs, stated
that on Friday last, on the arrival of the Waterloo steamer
from Rotterdam at the St. Katharine-wharf, he searched
the ponsengere luggage, and nearly the last wbo prezented
himself was the prmoner. He asked him if be had any
goods liable to duty, to which he replied, " Only 75 cigars.
The prisoner then opened a large box, containing toys, on
the top of which were 75 cigars, of which be took possession.
He told the prisoner he could have them again on pdyment
of the duty. He then closely examined the box, and found
that the interior of it was very shallow as compared with
the exterior. He manned it, and discovered a
false bottom to the box. He took it out and a quantity of
tobacco and cigars were disclosed to his view. There was a
spaoe of 2/4 inches between the false and the real bottom of
the box, and he took from it 1111 b. of cigars and 7llb. of
tobacco. He seised the tobacco and cigars, and upon speak-
tug to the prisoner about it he maid, "I'll pay the duty,"
which be of course was unable to take, and arrested the
prisoner.
Mr. Hodd, from the Queen's warehouse, Custom-house,
said the value and duty of the tobacco and cigars amounted
to 9/. 19s.

The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said he came from
Ameterdom to Rotterdam, and before leaving the former
place his brother's servant packed up the box. He was not
aware there wee a false bottom to the box, or that there
were any cigars or tobacco in it until the officer made the
seizure. . .

Mr. Woolrych—l would recommend you to pack up your
own boxes before you leave Holland again.
The prisoner—l should like to pay the duty.
Mr. Woolrych.-ob, no. You can't be allowed to do
the., I believe you knew the tobacco and the cigars were
cooeea/ed in the box, and I can assure you English Custom-
house office's are nut so cagily taken in. You are fined 1001.,
and in default of payment six months' imprisonment.
The prisoner was not prepared with the money, and was
locked up.
