for Peterborough started, however, the vicar died; and use
lees the advseson was ao:d previous to 11 o'clock on Then-
day—a thing must improbebie—the neat presentation has
lapsed to the bishop of the diocese.

Mr. Cockburn, Q C., non Moved accordingly, and stated
the facts of the case and the point in dispute at great length.
It appeared that on the 12th of June, 1847, Meters. Cooke
and Wheatstone took out • patent for improvements' in
giving signals and sounding alarums in distant places by
means of electric currents conveyed through metallic
circuits. It had been previously known that messages could
be sent by electric eleven; but it had been found ve y
cult to carry out an scheme that would effect the object until
Masan. Cooke and Wheatstone discovered that by reeking
the electric current pass over the nestles at the point where
it was desired to communicate the message, and bringing it
back to the opposite pole of the battery from which it
started, the needles could be made to diverge at right
angles. The needles had been made to deflect by former in-
ventions, and the manner in which the messages were trans-
mitted was by having needles with a kind of curtain, or
mask, affixed to them, which, on the needles deflecting, un-
covered the different knees of the alphabet, which were
marked en • lounged shaped dial, but this plan involved
the use of so many wire/ that it was found not to be mac-
U able. Memos. Cooke and Wheatstone, however, had- die
covered that they could cause the needles lobe defifeted
either way, and by different combinations they ma-
naged to carry on their communications by means
of having six wires only, namely, five to act with
five needles and one return wire, instead of about 50, as In the
first telegraph. This was • very considerable improvement„
but it was not known that a return wire wag not necessary,
it being left for Messes. Brett and Little to mike that Ira
portent discovery. They found out that by • single wire
and a metallic plate sunk in the ground at seek end of the
line of communication, the circuit was complete without any
return wire. This deceiver, saved the expense of many
miles of wire in all ease.. Mears. Brett and Little aim
found out that one wire would set upon two needles, and
could be made to deflect them either way, and instead of
having letters of the alphabet, as is Cooke and Wheatstone's
patent they used • system of coasting—that is to say, Isif
deflecting one needle once to the left it would signify the
letter A, by deflecting twice it would mean B, •de ffection
to the ;left meant C, end so on, by which means they could,
with only two needles and the combinations of which
they were capable, represent not merely the letters
of the alphabet, but also • vast number of figures.
This was so greet an improvement that it was at once
adopted, and Messrs. Brett and Little's plea is the one now
generally need. The Electric Telegraph Company, who
were the assignees of Messrs. Cooke and Weeatstone's
Telegraph, deeming this to be • new modification of their
invention, had brought an Mice fee the infringement, con-
tending that the difference between the two plans IMO only
• coloarable evasion. Mr. Cockbaro, in the course of hie
argument, laid greet strum tame the feet of one wire oily
being used by Mete.. Brett and Little, and also the use of
the earth's circuit, and eontsoded that their telegraph was
an entirely different one from that of the plaintiffs, and
therefore, that the defendants were entitled to have the
verdict entered fa their favour, or to have it set aside and •
sonata entered. In the course of his argument, the learned
counsel gave the details of the differences and inventions in
connection with the electric telegraph.
The Attogoisy•Oeneral then rose, and said that,
on the part of the plaintiffs, he wished that there
should be • new trial, on the ground of
misdirection. The verdict upon the facts bad been really
mediae the plaintiffs, although nominally in their favour,
which he (the Attorney General) thought wee the result of
the manner in which the jury had been directed at the
trial, and he could not help thinking that his lordship had
beta under a mlupprehension as to some of the points in
the ease.
After • great des' of disausidon, at the suggestion of Mr.
Justice Creswell, it was agreed on both step that Mr.
Cockburn should take • rale to show cause why the verdict
should act be set aside and a aeussit *nu red, or why the
vi edict should not be entered far the defendants, or why
there should not be • new trial, so that the points on ea&
side could be argued, when the counsel for the plaintiffs
showed cause against the rule.

SUICIDE BY A FEMALE SERVANT.—On Saturday
afternoon, Mr. Bedford, the coroner, concluded an inquiry
which had previously been adjourned, at the Malpas Arms,
Charles en, et, Glroevenor square respecting the death of
Susan White, • single woman, •ged 32 years, who com-
mitted suicide in Lady Vernon's mansion, No. 6, Upper
Bolan,* street, Belgrave-square. The den and had only
been five days in her ladyship's service as cook, having pre-
viously filled • similar situation in the establishment of
Lady Normanby. The deceased was found in her room on
Tuesday morning last, with a rope round her neck, the end
of which she held is her hand. She had died from strange
liana, and the deceased had else inflicted two incised
wounds upon her throat, and one upon her right arm, with
common kitchen kid e which was found lying by her
side. Several of the deceased', relatives were examined, but
were unable to account for the deceased committing the rash
act. During the last three weeks she bad complained of
pains in her head, sad she bad also appeared very low and
desponding. Verdict," Temporary insanity.'
THE ALLEGED MURDER AT LALEHAIL—OR Satur-
day Charles Molds's, an egrieultural labourer', 'who had

been so bad and threatening, that she sent over to Man-
' abater for his sister, Rebecca Wallace, and secreted the

day night, after all the inmates of the house had
retired to rest, weans of " Murder " were heard

MANCIIIIITZR, April W.—Considerable depression pre.
railed during the early par Col the week. The wet, mild weather
caused Metered anxiety to quit old Flour, or pooh a. might be in
suspicious cooed/on, and more or leas effect was thereby produced
upon the value of all qualities. The bwoneva actually dune, however,
was trig! ing, either in thin or any other article. The tom' of our
market t..-day is certainly better than at the beginning of the week,
and the feeling Deana to gain ground that the value of goyd fresh qua-
lities of each article ia nut etweeptioie of much further retrogression.
Buyers of Wheat and Flour set, however, with great caution; the
amount of Manes date is not extensive, and, though UM week's

NIWCASTLIN ON-Tiler, April 20. The weather this week
has been of as unsettled character; on Monday and Tuesday we had
rain and again to-day; and although the weather in the intervening
period bas hem thy, it has not been of • hoeing character. The
deliveries of Wheat hitherto from our grown have been try abun-
dant, but after the May rents end' have been provided fur the supplies
must Inevitably take off most importantly, as alter that time the
nudority of our small fernier. will have little to bring forward, whilst
