HORRID MUIIDER.

The neighbourhood of Great Saffror-hill is In the highest degree
of horror and alarm, ;n consequence of the discovery, at nine
o'clock yesterday rooming, of a murder, committed at No.
Lily-street. The Unfortunate victim is a woman named Ambrose,
wife of a shoemaker, and supposed to be sixty years of age. The
circulnatieem under which the murder was supposed to be com-
mitted are as follow. :
James Ambrose, husband of the deceased, came home on Satur-
day fast, about ten o'clock, and immediately went out again. say-
ing to a lodger in the house that there was 110 peace for him at
home, the old woman was drunk again. Ile again returned at
twelve, aednothing more was known until, on Swale; morning, a
loung man named Ilrown, lodging in the next room, said to the
andlady that he was afraid something was the matter, as Ambrose
and his wife were fighting in the night, and he heard the woman,
after a violent blow had been struck, exclaim, " Lord receive my
soul I" After which a deathlike silence ensued. In the course of
Sunday, Ambrose told the landlady that his wife was gone to her
sister's, who lived at Hampstead, and would got return till Men.
day, anti in the course of that day he several times came in and in-
quired if she had retained ? and was answered in the negative.
He again made the same inquiry, hut hesitaingly, as if weld of
hearing an answer. During the whole of Moeday night he did not
come home, and when Brown got up yesterday morning he ob-
served the door ajar, but the lock shot, aid without the key. He
mentioned this circumstance, and Mrs. Jay, tile landlady, went up
stairs, knowing Amliros'e had not been home, and knocked at the
door, expecting that- she should see his wife. No answer being
given she pushed the ,tor, and saw the bonnet and shawl worn by
deceased hanging up; she became alarmed and ran down stairs,
atatirg her suspicions to Brown and another, who went up to
ascertain the real state of the case. On first entering the room
nothing extraordinary was visible; but on turning behind the
door, a most appalling sight met their view. The wretched woman
lay extended on tita grouud wel•ering in her blood, which appeared
to hrve proceeded from the right side of the head, where several
dreadful wounhis were visible. She appeared to have been dragged
across the room, as the track of blood was distinctly seen on the
floor. The body was concealed by two chairs with sacks spread on
them ; and it was evidently fast approaching a state of deco/npo.
sition. There is little doubt of th.- deed havirg been committed
/at Saturday night or Sanday morning. Strict search is making
for Ambrose.

RUMOURED WAR IN PERSIA,

Great impatience and alarm arc manifested by the Per-
sians in Constantinople about the arrival of a certain Tar-.
tar, who was expected to bring accounts of what TM
pevsing on the frontiers of Georgia. The King of Persia
bail arrived in the month of June in the camp of Oudjan,
ten leagues S.E. of Tamis, whilst his Royal Highness the
Prince Abbas :Mina bad advanced with his troops on
Naklachiwati on the banks of the Araxis, and Hussein
Khan Scrdar, Gave rnor of Irevan, had already taken up
a position on the frontiers of the two empires. If the
Persians of Constantinople may be believed, the English
arc not strangers to the determination of Persia to claim
once more, with arms in hand, the provinces of Ajltistan
Chirwan, &c. which acre formerly subject to the Crown
of the Sophis, and of which the Russians have slICCes
sively made themselves masters within the last forty years.

STATE OF TRADE.

LEEDS, OCT. 7.—Since the revival of trade in the ma-
nufacturing and commercial distiicts of Yorkshire, rieeW
two months ago, We had no reacticn up to the present dens.
This trade (Nettles itself into the woollen cloth, the worsted
stuff, the blanket, the fancy, and the cotton branches.
The woollen Moth tradc et Leeds contindia steady, .and
e-
ther on the increase; at, lindderafield it is Ceftainly
len-
proiing, and wools, boat at these places and at Wakefield,
are in general in brisk demand. The prices Of woo! of the
middle and lower kind have advanced, within the last two
months, about twenty per cent., and on manufactured
goods an advance of ten per cent. may be stated; with-
in the last fortnight there has not been any material
advance in price, though there has been an increased
demand. At Bradford and Halifax, where the mar.
kets are principally for worsted stuffs, business is pro-
ceeding each successive week very satisfactorily the
demand is coe3itlerable, and the pricei both of the
raw material (combing wool) and the manufactured
article improve, nearly in the same ratio as that we have
mentionea in woollens. The blanket trade, which is
chiefly carried on at Ilecßmeeidivike and Dewsbury, the
market being held at the former of tlfece places, still im-
proves, anti, the difficulty at present consists more in ob•
taming wool to make this description of manufacture, than
li ohaining a market for the blankets when they are made.
The fancy trade hail been more deeply depressed, and the
depression has been of longer continuance, than in (ray
other branch ; but it has begun to revive, and hopes arc
entertained that both masters and workmen will soon ex-
perience the benefit of this revival.
There are yet but very faint indications of iffy decided
revival of trade in Paisley. Indeed, the 'bawl trade never
was so dull as at the present moment. Even the most en.
terprising manufacturers are now beginning to despond.
During the last two weeks a number of weavers wile were
employed at the public works have engaged for Webs of a
coarse description, which are given out by some Glasgow
houses, and a few have been taken on by manufac-
turers here, but the price for which the weavers have en.
gaged to work them is an low that they cannot possibly
earn as much as they received at the out-door labour. This
may at first view seem incredible to such as are unacquaint-
ed with their wretched condition. But the fact is, that the
poor men are so badly clad that they cannot work much
longer in the open air, as the inclement season is beginning
to set in. The subscription fund will be entirely ex-
hausted by the end of the present week. The number of
persons employed by the Committee who manage that fund
up to Saturday lass amounted to six hundred.—Celedoniun
Mercury.

A DELPHI THEATRE.

On Saturday night this favourite little Theatre com-
menced its career for the ensuing winter season. The ap-
pearance.of the interior of the house is unchanged, except
that the painting has been cleaned, and the decorations re-
newed, so that no perceptible alteration presents itself to
the eye. The company consists of all our old favourites
(except Wilkinson, whose absence we know not how to
account for, and whose place cannot he easily supplied) ;
and in addition to them they have got Mrs. Hughes, from
Drury-lane Theatre, and a Corps de Ballet, unrivalled in
minor theatres. Indeed it is scarcely prop rto call this a
minor theatre. it should not be classed amongst the
minors ; it is unique in itself. Although comparativ-ly
small, it differs as much from the minor theatres in all its
arrangements as they do from the larger houses.
The Met was the principal attraction of the evening, in
which Mr. J. Reeve made himself, as usual, " pretty par-
ticularly.
.considerably—agreeible" to the audience; and
Lone Torn Cqin (Mr. T. P. Cooke) wasgrcettd on his ap-
pearance with the most astounding plaudits from all parts
of the house. It is unnecessary to say any thing of the other
performers in this piece, as the public have had ample time
to judge of their respective merits. But we cannot in jus-
tice omit to mention that Mrs. Hughes, as Catharine
Ploirtlen, was exceedingly sincessful, and deservedly ap-
plauded. The part of Cecilia was represetted by a young
lady, it being her first appearance upon any stage. As
might have been expected, she laboured under considerable
difficulty at first, but as that wore off she appeared to pos-
sess many of the requisites for a good actrins, together with
a pleasing, though by no means a powerful voice.
The ballet was chiefly remarkable for the variety which
fldunrcee.d, a
characterized it, and for the number of children who
too, for the amusement of the au-
dience. Thei successfullyentertainments of the evening concluded
with a new comic burletta, iu one act, called o.'d Love and'

POLICE.

Maxims-lilousE.—On Saturday S. Sibky, the guard of the
Defiance, Alancheater reach, voluntarily appeared at the Justice-
room to answer the following charge:—The complainant, Mr.
Ralph Bradley. a grocer, residing in Crutched-frisra, stated that
on the Bth of July he made up a parcel containing Sibs. of tea and
200 sovereigns in gold, and winch lie direeted to his father, a
banker, residing at Ashboume, in Derby/114e. He delivered it to
his apprentice with directions to take it to the Swan with two
Necks.

IV. Thompson, the apprentice, stated, that he received the par.
eel from the lust witness, and took it to the above Inn, where he
booked it to go by the Defiance coach, and took a receipt fur it in
his delivery book.
Atter some conversation the LORD MAYOR adjourned the fur-
ther hearing of the case until the guard who joined the coach at Lei-
cester could attend.

OUILIMAT.i..—On Saturday, Dr. Dedham. a physician, residing
at No. 4.01 d Burlington-strect, was brought before Sir P. LAVILIE,
the Sitting Magistrate, on a warrant, to answer the complaint of
Doelce?, a hackney-coach driver, for refusing to pay his fate.
It appeared by complainant's statement, that he believed himself
an injured man, turd the Doctor a choleric ono, for the Doctor had
been served with two several summonses to attend at this office, but
that he had not valved these instruroants of justice as of more
weight than an old prescription to a dead patient ; so that as a
ureic, resort poor Jerry was obliged to take out a warrant to en-
force his appearance.
The Doctor, with manifen impatience, waited till the complain.

Young Love, which was full of incident and business. The
dialogue was not destitute of humour, so that in the hands
of Wrench, Yates, Terry, Miss Boden, and Mrs. Hughes,
it could hardly fail of success. The plot is wild enough,
and differs little from the lighter productions of our French
neighbours, and, as is usually the ease, the piece concluded
by the total defeat of Old Loll', who is driven from the

GENUINE SYRUP OF DE VELNOS.—The fol-
lowing Letter is an additional and recent Testimony in
proof of the peculiar benefit attendant on the use of the Syrup:—
" Ilalf-Acre, Brentfcrd, Jan. 19, 1826.
"Madam,—Fully convinced of the efficacy of your invaluable
medicine, I sm induced to make the following case known, for the
benefit of those who may be suffering under similar affliction. My
daughter bad a severe attack of Typhus Fever m the autumn of
11124 ; her head was shaved, and immediately after it broke out.
and formed an entire scab (so that her ears were scarcely visible),
at the same time discharging a watery humour all over the head,
with a thick matter out of the hole of each ear. After taking a few
bottles of the Syrup she was restored to perfect health, in which she
still remains; another autumn having passed.without the least
symptom of a relapse. In addition to the foregoing. I cannot but
acknowledge that, en several occasions, I have received the greatest
benefit from taking the Syrup, but particularly in the case of an
ulcerated leg, occasioned by a severe blow. I beg to add, if I can
in any way be serviceable, as a reference, in recommending the
Syrup, I shall tee) it a duty I owe, knowing the efficacy of it in
many instances. I am, Madam, your's respectfully
.
_ W. FRANKLIN.

" To Mrs. Canham, 52, Berners-street."
The great success of this Medicine in Scorbutic, Sroplualous,
and Syphilitic Complaints, Pains and Swellings of the Liver, dis-
eased Skin and Glands, and all disorders arising from impure
blood, Is now too well known to require a detailed enumeration.
As, however, imposture, like envy, too closely follows the heels of
merit, and pretensions to imitate the Syrup, to Improve it, or to
have discovered something of similar efficacy, may surprise the un.
wary, and fatally mislead the ignorant, Mrs. Canham owes it in
gratitude to the public, to give warning of these dangers, and to
refer to those proofs of the virtues and efficacy of her 3letlicine,:to
be found in her publications, which surpass, in number, respecta-
bility, and authenticity, any testimonies of a 'builds kind that have
been ever produced.
The effects of the Genuine Vegetable Syrup are such as not to
interrupt either business or pleasure; it operates on the animal
juices, and simply requires the common restraint of moderation in
diet. It Is a safe hut powerful substitute for Mercury, and removes
all those diseases which an unsuccessful use of that mineral caeca.
sions.
The genuine Medicine has a label affixed to each bottle, with the
signature " M. Caaham," in the hand-writing of the Proprietor,
by whom it is sold, as it was by her Uncle and her Husband, at
32', Demers-street. at IN. a bottle; and, by her appointment, at
Mr. Betties's, 196, Bishoptigste-street-Without ; also by Mrs.
Canbam's Agents in every considerable town In the United King-
dom. The Concentrated, for warm Climates, may be procured of
our deputed Agenti in the East Indies, Messrs: Mackintosh and
Co. Calcutta; and Messrs. Forbes and Co. Bombay.

Fr. B11•10US I'ILLS, prepared by F. NEIVBERY
and SONS, are the discovery of a Physician of the first
eminence at the present time. In an extensive practice for some
years he has employed them in the most obstinate Bilious Cases
with unvarying success. They operate principally as a deobstruent
and purgative ; they promote a proper action of the liver in the se-
cretion of bile, or correct it when in a vitiated state. Obstructions
of the stomach and bowels are gradually removed ; and by gavial/
tone to the bilisry ducts and strength to the system, they afford re-
lief to those who suffer from nervous attacks, sick head-ache, gid-
diness, indigestion, and gouty affection.
The Bilious Pills have the name " F. Newbery" engraved in
the Government stamp on each box, and are sold at No. 45, St.

Mr. Stratiwe.i.t. said this was a cause in which a bill was filed
againet the defendants, for sic account ()rite personal estate of Allan
Maclean, the testator mentioned in the pleadings. A decree Wan
made, directing the accounts to be taken by the Master. In the
course of the proceedings !t appeared that part of the testator's
assets consisted of dividends, to be paid by the estate of Devayncs,
Soule, and Co., bankrupts. Portions of these dividends were re-
ceived and paid, but a dispute has arisen about another portion of
them, amounting to 1,5001., received by the defendant Maclean ;
and the present application was on the part of Maclean's co-de-
fendant. Mr. Justice Park. that Modena might be mitered to pay
the 1000/. into Court in the course of three weeks, and that it
might be laid nut In the usual rummer until askew could be fully
heard. The Darned Counsel tias not aware that the motion was
opposed, but if the Court thought groperro make the order as
prated, he would 'take it tin condition that no opposition arcs in-
tended to be made.
The order was made, directing the rue td be spoken 10 again, if,
on inquiry, any gentlemen was huntteis mutes thaatwoeion.

Mr. SHADWELL said he believed the fact to be, that notice of
his Lordship's intention to sit had heeh received so lately, that gen-
tlemen had not had time to be prepared.
Lord 0I F ronn said he supposed that it ores an. fie understood
notice had first been given that the hoed Chancellor would not sit
to-day, without any intention that he (the Master of the Rolls)
would sit in Ins lordship's place, and that this information had not
been communicated till last night. As he multi be of on further
use, lie rose, saying he would remain in the adjoining room for
half an hour longer ; end if per chance any gentleman found he
could move any thing in the course of that time; he would witli
much plea/Ore again return into Court.
Sir. SuanwEt.r. considered it quite unnecessary rot his Lord-
ship to take such trouble, Mid upon that the Court broke up.
