Picco, the " Sardinian minstrel," appeared for the first
time before a London audience on Saturday evening. Hi•
performance on a shepherd's reed not more than three
inches long is very extraordinary. The " Casts Diva" and
the " Carnival of Venice" were very wonderful displays both
of taste and skill.

THE DUKE OF BIICIEINGHAM.—After many years of re-
tirement from public life the Duke of Buckingham appeared
at Aylesbury, on Friday, to preside at a special meeting of
the Royal Bucks Agricultural Association, founded in 1833,
under his auspices. In the evening a number of members
of the association dined together. The duke was received
with the warmest cordiality. In the course of the evening
his health was drunk, when be spoke with much feeling of
his former relations with Buckinghamshire and its agricul-
turists. The Marquis of Chandos was by his father's side.
NEW CORN EXCHANGE IN WIGAN.—A new corn market
in Wigan will be opened on Friday next. The spacious
room at the Commercial-hall, Market-place is fixed for
this purpose, and being situated in the centre of the town,
cannot but prove very advantageous to farmers and others
immediately interested. From the facility thus afforded,
parties from a distance have an opportunity of sending
their grain at any time during the week previous to the
market day (Friday), which will be received by Mr.
Reuben Howarth, the proprietor, who will be responsible
for its custody. It is also intended that one portion of
the room shall be allotted for cheese, &c. The proprietor
has seen for a long series of years the necessity of such a
place for business, and has been actuated by no other
motive than to afford farmers an opportunity of having a
place set apart strictly for the transacting their own
business, and not, as heretofore, in the streets or public
houses. By this accommodation they will not be subject
to the inclemency of the weather, and their produce will
at all times be in a saleable state, and open for inspection.
The highest praise is due to our enterprising fellow-
townsman for providing such accommodation for public
business. The same gentleman is about to present three
splendid silver cups to the parties growing the best crops
of wheat, corn, hay, clover, turnips, &c., from his bone
manure. Tile cups are of the mostlelaborate description,
and finished by the firm of Royle and Rawson, jewellers,

MURDER OF A GAOLER

HASTINGS, March 10.—This morning, about half-past six,
a sad affair took place in the gaol of this town. The gaoler,
named Wellard, aged 65, and much respected, went into
the cell of a man named Murdock to give him his breakfast.
Murdock, who is undergoing imprisonment for picking
pockets, seized Wellard by the neckcloth as he was leaving
the cell, and twisted it until he got the old man into a chair
senseless. He then proceeded to the matron's room, fast-
ened her in, and escaped over the wall of the prison. A boy
who was confined with him in the cell could not succeed in
following him, and therefore remained in custody. Wellard,
when discovered, was found to be dead, and officers were
dispatched in every direction in pursuit of the murderer. In
the afternoon some boys, playing in a field, saw a man in the
ditch, and suspecting that he was the murderer, they gave
an alarm. Two of them, more resolute than the rest,
seized and held him till assistance arrived. The man thus
taken proved to be Murdock, and he was taken back to the
gaol. He is reported to have exhibited some emotion
when he heard that Wellard was dead. He is described as
21 years of age, a well-known pickpocket, about 5 feet 9
inches in height, light brown hair, gray eyes, pale com-
plexion, no whiskers, full neck and face ; was dressed in
shabby clothes, black frock coat, black trousers, black hat,
black silk handkerchief, white shirt, no collar. It is
believed his clothes were torn in climbing the wall. The
circumstances of his imprisonment were the following—On
February 25, James Murdock, 21, and George Wright, 12,
were accused of picking pockets ; George Young, 25, was
accused of being an accomplice. Young was discharged,
and the two former were committed for trial at the next
borough quarter sessions. In consequence of a statement
made by the prisoners in gaol, Young was again apprehended
on a charge of uttering counterfeit coin, but was discharged
for want of evidence. It is probable that the statement
made by the prisoners, and which led to Young's second
apprehension, might have been a ruse to enable the three
to concert a plan of escape after Young's second discharge.
The deceased was about seventy years old, was well
known and highly respected. The family to which he
belonged is one of long standing in the town, and highly
connected. He had held the office of gaoler for many. year,
during which he had shown himself to be a man of strict
integrity, and also of humane feeling towards his prisoners.
The people are intensely
.excited and indignant, both on
account of the dreadful crime itself, and also on account of
the generous and humane character of the unfortunate
sufferer.

HANOVER

The opening of the Hanoverian Chambers is
officially announced for the 3rd of April. The
government is actively engaged in devising arrange-
ments for putting the institutions of the country
in harmony with the new Constitution. A Royal
ordinance relative to the reorganization of the
Council of State has just been published It will
no longer he presided over by the head of the
Cabinet. The King will name its President, and
will himself direct its discussions when he thinks
proper, on which occasion all the sections will
assemble together. The statement made by the
German journals that some of the Hanoverian
Ministers had resigned is unfounded.

PRUSSIA.

We learn from Berlin, under Monday's date, that
a rumour was current in that city, that M. de
Manteuffel is on the point of starting for Paris.
The president of police, Herr Von Hinckleday,
was this morning shot in a duel by Herr Von
Rochow, whom he had felt obliged to challenge.
The New Prussian Gazette announces, but with-
out guaranteeing the statement, that Prince Peter

TO THE EDITOR OP THE NORTHERN TIMES

Sir,—Tour paper of last week contained repetitions of an
advertisement, put forth by parties who are endeavouring(
to obtain an alteration in the " Merchant Shipping Act,'
whereby they may be permitted to engage crews for
masters of vessels, failing their being licensed by the
local marine board, and in justification of themselves
aeainst the charge of crimpage, they state that the prac-
tice was carried on to such an extent inside the walls of
the Sailors' Home, that lately, " no less than one shipping
master and seven clerks have
,been dismissed for bribery
and improper conduct."
Now, sir, you will agree with me, that every man's
character, particularly that of a public officer should be
above suspicion, and as
ythoue awboilvieisutajtoemstiecnet may fl
sure
conjuncture when some parties
tmhainte,L am
unfortunate
letter. upon
At
were dismissed by the local marine board for the above
offences, it was intimated to me that I had better resign.
which I refused doing, as " I had nothing to resign for ;”
wherefore I was served with notice, that " after the
expiration of three months, my services would no longer
be required ;" such proceedings have come to the know-
ledge of parties transacting business here, and therefore,
I beg to state, that the assertion in the advertisement
referred to, and now going', the round of the merchants'
offices, as embodied in a petition of parliament—so far as
regards myself, is wholly inapplicaVe, and totally foreign to
the subject—Deny it who can !
It is unnecessary to say anything further at present.—
I am yours &c

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES

Sir,—There will be many of your readers that will be
disposed to question, with me, the policy of the directors of
these rail ways, in suddenly terminating the weekly contract
between Southport and this town and Manchester.
The late contract price had the effect of attracting
winter residents from both places to Southport on account
of its greater salubrity, and freedom from the more humid
ffinditions of,the atmosphere of the large towns, to and
from which they are easily approachable to business by the
rail. This consideration although at first inducing a
limited residence, has in many instances resulted in a
permanent one.

It may then be fairly doubted if the present alteration
will succeed in retaining a single individual of the class
referred to, which I will denominate weekly or monthly
visitors, by demanding from them nothing less than the
daily return fare of 4s 6d or 27s 6d per week of six
days.

In my opinion, while admitting the late contract some-
what low, the issue of weekly and monthly tickets (at a
period of the year be it observed when there is no great
demand upon the passengers' traffic) at a proportionate
rate to the annual charge would have brought more
grist to the company's exchequer.
Taking the annual rate at 181, a weekly passenger is
called upon to pty in proportion to an annual charge of
711 los. It may, therefore, fairly be doubted if, without
reducing the daily fare, the directors might not have
exercised a little discretion in rendering the facilities of
transit possible to short winter contractors to any but the
affluent.
As the case now stands, such a prohibitory demand
will not compel annual contracts, and neither enrich
Southport nor the companies.—l am, &c. Cuts.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

DESPATCH FROM GENERAL CODRINGTON

The Gazette of last night contains a despatch
received by Lord Panmure from General Sir W. J
Codrington, dated the 26th ult., giving an account
of the parade and inspection of the infantry of the
British Army in the Crimea on the 24th. The
Commander of the Forces speaks highly of the
general appearance, cleanliness, and steadiness of
the troops, who were in the finest health and
vigour. The despatch encloses the report of Dr.
Hall on the sanitary state of the army for the week
ending Feb. 23. This report is remarkable, as it
states that not one death from disease had occurred
in the whole army, and there had been only 14
deaths in the three weeks preceding. In the
Highland Division, consisting of 4,860 men, only
one death had occurred in five weeks ; in the Third
Division, out of 6,450 men, not a single death had
occurred for 28 days ; and in the Light Division
there had been no death for a fortnight, out of a
strength of 6,460 men.
