THE KUPDERS' AT WALWQRTH.

LATER' PARTIOULALS. —(TEW DAY.)
The sensation created this (Wednesday) morning
throughout the whole of the parishes of Newington and
Camberwell has been such that it would be di/Begat ade-
quately to describe it. Immense crowds of spectators haye
besieged the front of the house, all making applications to
see it, but although large mita of money have been offered
by many to satisfy their morbid taste not one individual has
been allowed to enter.

Mr. Thomas Cooke, the head beadle of Newington and
summoning officer for the coroner, has been actively engaged
in getting up the evidence to be laid before the coroner at
the inquest, which will be formally opened by Mr. William
Carter, the coroner for East Surrey, to-morrow (Thursday)
morning, at half-past 10 o'clock.
Since the reception of the alleged murderer in gaol, he
has maintained the same defence as when before the ma-
Manatee. His mother did not like his intended marriage,
and out of revenge had murdered his intended, and for fear
of being found out had murdered his two brothers, and
would no doubt have asamesinated him, and then have
committed suicide, leaving her husband to suffer
when he returned home for allowing the nnfor-
I
tunate young woman, Mary Wells Streeter, to stay in
the hone° pending the marriage. He had no doubt but he
was the moving instrument in causing her death, but if he
had not done what he did he would also have been killed.
The unfortunate Mary Streeter was the niece of
a police-constable, named Spice, who formerly be-
longed to the station-house at Stone's-end, Borough.
The poor creature only arrived in London the previous
morning, and that was owing to the representations made by
prisoner that all the preliminaries had been settled for their
marriage. As soon as that was consummated, he intended
to take her away from his parents' house into the country,
where he was going into business as a fanner.
It is commonly said that the prisoner, if lie really coin-
nutted the murders, must have been mad at the time, but
those who have him in custody say that his conversation Is
anything but like that which is expected from a madman.
There is only one sign approximating to the semblance of
inanity, which is the coolness displayed by him, se if
nothing had happened in his family.
Although the cause of death is so apparent, yet it is
necessary for the ends of justice to have some of the bodies
opened, and Mr. Carter, the coroner. has given orders that
a post mortem examination of two of the bodies should be
made this day, so that the precise mum of death may
without idly difficulty be swore to.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

MARK-LANE,-THIS DAY.)

The weather this morning is very fine; a clear sky and sea-
shine, with a pleasant breeze front south-west. It was
also fine yesterday, though not so much so as to-day. A very
singular instance of the extraordinary character of the
weather is the fact of snow having fallen at Scarborough
within the last day or two to the depth of several inches.
The supply of F.nglish wheat, flour, &c., continues ex-
tremely Short. One small parcel of Insh oats reported, but
not auy Scotch. The foreign arrivals of wheat continue
heavy, principally from Radian northern
Prussia, Denmark, a cargo from the Black
Sea, and several parcels from Hamburg. Flour—

tations, but nit much doing in English. Country marketaare
most of them higher this week, and lateaccounta speak very
unfavourably of the crepe. Foreign wheat quite as dear as on
Monday. Barley steady, without change in value. Oats
are rather dearer to-day than on Monday, the large dealers
operating to some extent. Beaus and peas scarce, and con-
sequeutly few on sale, at about latequotations. Flour very
firm, nod in some instances more money obtained for bed
marks or country grain. Novfolks, 41s. to 425.,
and other descriptions quite aa dear as on Monday.
