EXECUTION OF THOMAS JONES,

Thomas Jones, the murderer of Dr. Hope, the surgeon
at Portsmouth, was executed at,Winchester on Saturday
morning. Hefore he died he repented of his crime, acknow-
ledged the justice of his sentence, and sought the aid of
religion to support him in the prospect of an ignominious
death. From his condemned cell he sent the following
letter, viz. :

" Winchester, March 18.
" To the friends and relatives of the late Dr. Hope.
" It is quite impossible for me to express the feelings of
deep sorrow and shame with which I reflect on the wicked
deed of mind which has deprived you of one so near and
dear to you. I fear I cannot depart this life without this
expression of my sorrow, even though it may ba suspected
or spurned, as I deserve it should be ; but as it will be too
late when this reaches you to ask you to forgive me, If can
only entertain the hope that your Christian charity would
have afforded me that comfort if there had been an
opportunity. May you be found on the day of judgment
amongst those who shall be saved.

" THOMAS JONES."
The parties to whom this was addressed, believing in its
sincerity, and compassionating the unhappy writer, sent
a reply which oonsoled him in his last agonies. Thomas
Jones was a most extraordinary man, and some particu-
lars of his life are to be published at his own request. He
partook of the Holy Sacrament on the day previous to his
execution. He met his death with firmness, but without
bravado, and the drop fell as he prayed God through the
Saviour of mankind to sustain and receive his soul. It
will be recollected that Jones was a convict on board the
hulks at Vortsmouth, and that he murdered Dr. Hope,
because he thought the latter treated him harshly. Wit.
nesses bore testimony to Dr. Hope's tenderness and
humanity, but the attention of the government has been
drawn to the discipline of the hulks in consequence of the
murder, and it is not improbable that the hulks will be
abolished, as the treatment of convicts on board them
tends rather to brutalise than to reform thp men.

LON DON

Conic The supply of English wheat was only moderate
this morning ; nevertheless the undecided state of opinion
in the trade from week to week, caused buyers to act on the
reserve, and sales could only be proceeded with at a decline
of 4i to 5s per qr upon last weep', rates. In foreign wheat
but little business was done, and prices may be considered
2s to 3s per qr lower. Norfolk flour declined 2s to 3s par
sack, and barrels is to 2s. Barley sold on much the same
terms as before. Oats were rather easier to purchase. Beans
and peas dull at former rates.

t'xoDue.e.: To-day, as customary, has been kept as a
partial holiday, and the public colonial market will not open

bought, at full prices, since Friday. All other articles
inactive.

active at 2d. per, 8 lbs. more money. Lambs were dull at

our messengers commence their delivery at five o'clock on

RIGA AND THE GULF OF FINLAND

The Journal de St. Petersburg publishes the fol-
lowing extracts from a letter dated Riga the 16th
instant :—" The navigation of the Gulf of Finland
is interrupted by the rigours of the winter, and
this state of things may continue until the breaking
up of the ice, which does not usually take place
until the end of April. Communication with the
coasts of Finland is effected only at
great risks. We are assured that some
foreign vessels, bound for our city, are checked
by ice in the very middle of the Gulf,
and are threatened, not only with the loss of their
rich cargoes, but with utter destruction from one
moment to another. In the almost certain prospect
of peace, our merchants daily receive important
orders from abroad for different products, such as
flax, hemp, tallow, oleaginous and cereal grains.
Prices are firmly maintained, and it is believed
that with peace once concluded, a fresh rise will
follow, in anticipation of large exports of these
products."

POLICE COURT.-YESTERDAY V E STE RDAY

(BEFORE MIU MANSFIELD.)
THE RAILWAY CASE.—Yesterday being the day to which
William Parsonage, the late official belonging to the London
and North Western Railway Company, stood remanded, the
Court was crowded by persons who appeared anxious to hear
the details of the case. Mr. Blenkeusop appeared for the
prosecution, and Mr. Cross was for the prisoner. As soon as
the prisoner was put forward to the bar, Mr. Cross applied to
his Worship for a remand, on the part of the prisoner, to
Wednesday (to-morrivr) at twelve o'clock. There was no
opposition to this, and the prisoner was remanded accordingly.
BOYS FOR SEA.—Mr. Mansfield asked the gentlemen of
the press who were present, to favour him by publishing the
following statement : —ln the case of two boys who had been
committed to prison, ho had received a letter from the
Chaplin, requesting to know if he (Mr. Mansfield) would
recommend them to a ship to go to sea? He (Mr. Mans-
field wished to be clearly understood in all cases where ho
recommende boys to merchants, shipowners, and captains,
that such boys possessed good characters, and had never been
iu gaol, nor charged with any crime. He wished it to go
forth, that in no case would he recommend boys that were
not of the best character.

STABBING BY A FEMALE. —A female named Mary
Sherrington, was charged with having stabbed another female
named Elizabeth Gribben. The parties reside in Warwick
street, Park, and it appeared that on Saturday night the com-
plainant, and a man with whom the prisoner resides, had some
`• cross words," and on Sunday morning the complainant was
standing i❑ the street, speaking to three other persons, when
the prisoner rushed at, and stabbed her in the jaw and neck
with a knife. Fortunately, however, the wounds were not
dangerous. The prisoner denied that she used a knife, but
admitted she did it with a piece of glass. She was committed
for trial.

bMUGGLIMI.—A foreigner named Percy, was convicted of
attempting to smuggle some brandy from on board a ship, and
was fined 108 and costs,

CAUTION TO SAILORS.--A sailor, named Alexander John•
ston, was charged by the captain of the ship Queen of the
Lakes with refi.sing to go to sea. He had signed articles, and
had his things on board, but, in the absence of the captain, lie
got out the things, and refused to proceed ou the voyage. The
prisoner• persisted in his refusal, but would not offer• any
reason. He was sent to gaol for two months, with hard
labour.

VIOLENT ASSAULT.—A man named William Connor,
residing at 5, Carlton-street, was brought up charged with
bavtng committed a violent assault on his son, a boy about
fifteen years of age. The prisoner was beating his wife, when
the boy ran between them, and a desperate blow from a piece
of wood, which was aimed at the woman's head, struck the
youth on the skull and nearly split it open. The prisoner was
remanded.

PARMA

We read in the Parma Gazette of the 18th
instant:—

At seven o'clock this evening, when the auditor
of war, Gaetano Bordi, was walking in the street
Bassa de Magnani with another officer, he was
treacherously stabbed in the back with a poniard
by an unknown hand. The assassin, having pre-
cipitately fled, could not be arrested. Lieutenant
Bordi, supported by two soldiers, was conveyed to
the office of the commander, where he received
medical relief and the consolation of religion. At
three o'clock he was carried to his house. His life
is in the greatest danger.
In consequence of this atrocious attempt, the
following sovereign act and proclamation has been
issued :

We, Louise Marie de Bourdon, governing
for Duke Robert 1., the States of
ParMa, &e. ;
Murderous hands have once more sacrificed two
innocent victims to their infamous designs, and
struck with dismay and horror the peaceable
population of this city. ThoSe horrible attempts
fill our heart with sadness and pain. Our inten-
tions were and are clement, but we cannot forget
that it is our sacred duty to protect honest people
against the wicked, and to .adopt rigorous and
efficient measures solely.directed against the latter.

PHILHARMONIC-HALL

There are many complaints

bout dear food, and, dear

everything, just now, but we have not met with any one
who has the hardihood to assert that dear music is among

our present miseries, when Mr. Thomas provides us with
a delightful musical treat, in the - performance of a full
band, each individual of which is a master on his
particular instrument, and the strains of accomplished voca-
lists, and these too, administered in one of the nobleso
temples of sound in the universe. Mr. Thomas began this
week, with extraordinary ',eclat, and a full house, with
the "Midsummer Nights Dream" of Shakspere, and
with Mendelssohn. Miss P. Horton was the exponent
of the poet, and the band, and Miss Stott, and
a small chorus, rendered the music. It is fashionable
to 'believe that no one but a Semble could or can
read. This is an error, as all can testily who heard
Miss Horton on Monday. Delicacy, discernmezt, force,
and pathos, were all found there in their hest,
and from " grave to gay", was a transition easy as it was
appropriate to 'the text. The entertainment was novel
amongst us, but we consider it perfectly successful; so
much so that, on Friday, Mr. Thomas repasts the per-
formance, and we would recommend all blessed with the

power to feel the charms of so charming a union of poe-

try and music, to attend.

With regard to the other continental states we

a popular, or what is generally called a " revolution-
"ary character," the days of despotic rule throughout
Europe would be numbered from that moment; still
we dreaded the thoughts of that terrible visitation, a
general war. And we do so still. Yet when Russia
raises the cry of revolution, and calls upon the

people she goes forth to conquer and enslave, t

rise and take up arms against their rulers, we

cannot see how the infection can be kept from
spreading, or why the Allies should longer feel any
delicacy in calling upon the Poles to raise the
standard of independence and drive the Muscovite
from their soil. The Russian General, Prince

LIABILITY OF INNKEEPERS—In the Court of Q ieen's
Bench, on Tuesday, Mr. Hugh Hill moved to set aside the
verdict, and for a new trial of the cause of Cashel v
Wright, which was tried in the Court of Record, at Man-
chester, and in which a verdict was found for the plaintiff
for £25. It was an action by a guest against an innkeeper
for loss of goods in an inn, and the point raised was whether
the defendant could exonerate himself, by showing neglect
on the Dart of the guest. The plaintiff was a mercantile
staying at the inn. He arrived rather late in
,ing, and having gone first into the commercial
Aired to his bedroom, and took off his watch and
and laid them on the dressing-table, and
on came o leaving the door ajar. The
boots, whose duty it was to let persons in during the
night, let in a guest at one o'clock, and another at three
on the night in question, and when the plaintiff got up in
the morning he missed his property. He made the fact
known to the landlord, and, on inquiry, it was found that
the person who was let in at three o'clock was not in his
room, and had never been to bed ; but he was afterwards
taken into custody and convicted of the robbery. The
neglect of the guest was in not locking the door, and leaving
it so far open that any one passing by could see the watch
and ring on the dressing-table ; and as the neglect conduced
to the loss of the goods, the innkeeper ought to be relieved
from all liability. The defendant contended that if the
door had been closed the loss would not have taken place,
