MURDERS.•
--do-

WATERFORD, OCT. 9.—We learn front Clonsiel that maw
named John O'Neill, employed by Mr. (Millard as a driver on the
li
Mail Coach Establishment between Limerick and this city, having
quarrelled with his wife on Wednesday evening, struck ber with a
Slick on the head, and killed her on the spot. Tile unfortunate
man, we understand, filled with remorse on perceiving the fatal
effect of his passion, wiped up the blood from the flour where she
lay, placed the body on a sofa, locked the room door, and proceeded
directly to the Deputy Mayor of Clonmel, to whom he voluntarily
surrendered himself. He was of course committed to Clonmel
gaol, to abide his trial for the horrid act. The unhappy man, it
had hitherto enjoyed a very good character.
afratviatieL, OCT. 9.—A man named Conolly, who resides in
liiisheelan.street, beat his wife in a most savage manner en Wed-
nesday night, and dragged her towards the river Suir, for the
purpose of throwing her into it. The poor woolen's life is in dan-
ger. Jealousy is said to be the cause of this brutal act.
LIMERICK, OCT. 9.—A man named Timothy Sullivan was
killed on Sunday night at Coolbsun, in the vicinity of liareSeld,
county Clare, by a young man named Michael James, the son of
a farmer. Both parties were at a dance, and had some difference,
and when the deceased was going home, he was followed by James,
who, with a blow of a stone, fractured hiascull, and completed the
murder by repeated blows of stones and sticks. A Coroner's in.
quest has since been held, and a verdict of wilful murder returned
against James, but he has contrived to elude the vigilance of the
police.
On Tuesday evening, about six o'clock, three brothers, named
M•Mahon, front Dallyeesey, county Clare, who that day brought
some corn to market. and ventured to sell it without the agency of
brokers, were met beyond Thomond-gate, near the Mayor's.sto. e,
by several fellows, and shockingly beaten ; one of the brothers,
James fil•Mehon, had his scull fractured, and many parts of his
body severely injured. He was brought immediately to the county
Infirmary, where he lingered until yesterday morning. We hare
frequently foretold that this system would not be put down until
we should have to detail such melancholy circumstances as we now
relate.
EFFECTS OF COMBINATION —Another murder has resulted
from those outrageous and disgraceful cofnbinations, in which
many trades are led to embark, evidently to the injury of the best
interests of the body, at the risk of their own lives, and the well-
being of their families. A few days ago a sawyer, in Dublin,
nutted Ph lip Ready, was dreadfully attacked and desperately
wounded by combinators, said to be a party of sawyers. lie died
in Stephen's hospital. on Saturday, from the effects of the in-
juries he received, and his shims will have to take their trial
for his murder.

FRANICTORT, JAN. 20.
The Aulic Counsellor. F. Afurhardt, known as one of the libnal
German writers, and as correspondent in this city of several French
and Herman Journals, has for a considerable time attracted the at-
tention of the Diet. The publication of some of the sets of that
Assembly In the French Journals, which none of the Deputies tau
publish without a violation of his duty, caused, in the beginning,
the late Minister for Wurtemburg to be suspected. The latter de-
manded a strict investigation, and in this 111 r. 31urhsrilt appealed
to the deceased Hessian Alinister, Von Hauler, with whom he
never had any connection. This and other things have induced the
Diet to resolve on the proposal of Austria, to prohibit Mr. Mur-
hardt from residing in Frankfort. After various negotiations
during the period of six months, last Saturday, the utmost time
' allowed to 51. 3lurbardt, expired, and he was obliged to leave the
city on Sunday. His intention was to go to the Bavarian doini-
nions. Though be is a subject of the Elector of Item, and well
known as a distinguished partisan of the late French Westphalian
Hovernment, and though he has had a great share in the very vio-
lent writings of the purchasers of Westphalian domains, he ven.
tured to appear publicly at Hunan, where he was, however, imme.
diately arrested. In the followifig night his paper. were veiled.
The reason assigned by the Hessian Government is the suspicion
tinder which he lies of • secret connection with one Belch, who is
also an object of suspicion to the Hessian Government. This
Kcich has lived a long time in America, and some time ago, being
at Mentz, expressed himself very freely on political subjects, in
the presence of two Members of the Central Committee, on which
account he received a very serious ripriniantL

PROBER T.

Meet WC many loose and contradictoey ragteme stinaligat in
2rirthe movements of this individ.ael. At mar tines* was
tty asserted that he bed taken his pommy= board hawed

that he passed through Cheater to ma o ian
ITV:
am which port he maim to 'for the
t atteittermsour. porkers agony , be
taken the= a house% tbitriamid ,pf
strati, WWI as • wine
spint merchant. Amidst ;n1:11:111=4167 speculative opinions it is
dillicult to arrive at any thing like certainty.
There is, we believe, little doubt that the letters recently ad-
dressed te die Editors of the Morning Newspapers, in his name,
and in that of his quondam solicitor's, were nothing better than
that contemptible species of witticism, which the equally con-
temptible' writers would, perhaps, please to term a " hoax." We
are, howevae, of opinion, from what has awe to our knowledge.
that Probert is sa in London, MI, under his present embarrass-
I meats, cannel well be prepared cithr to recommence business, to
undertake • voyage /AMOR the Atlantic, or to institute an action
against the Newspapers who have made his character the subject of
remark. Enough, indeed, has been written and r.poken of the
ilert,'ordshire tragedy-.toe of the ainsasatis Iscratea have made
their thud exit frees the scene—the fate of another is by this time
dreided—and, far the fourth, we question whether his lot be more
enviable than that of his fellows.

There is no---eviite;e7 to support t the assertion of Mrs. Probate
haring separated from her husband. Though, perhaps, the world
may not acquit a man of guilt, yet the judgment of a woman who
loves must be, and ever is, partial.
During Mrs. Prebert's confinement at St. Alban's, she was often
heard to say that else could not think Probert capable of imbruing
his hands in the blood of his fellow-creature, and, under that im.
presaion, whatever turn affairs might take eventually, she should
still believe him innocent of the murder. and nothing should induce
her to forsake her duty to him as a wife. Since the trial we learn
that an asyb,m bag bests offered her in the house of a distant rela-
tive, but which—resolved to ahare her husband's fate—she instantly
declined—Eve/Hag raper.

Some People remark " it never rains but it pours,"
which may not inappropriately be applied to the late rise in the
Funds, for ever tame Mr. Sivewright contracted for thin Lottery (a
Moiety of the NU,. in which are Steck, the other Money), the
Prim has rapidly and regressively risen upwards of Nine per cent.,
and many think Steck will, ere long, fetch more in the market than
the same nominal sum of money, but even at the present raise these
has accumulated aboat 10,01141. which will be gained by the Holders
of Tickets and Shams in addition to the *wen 20,0091. Bce- orieristet

____

MY Loan,—Perusing the British Press of the 21st 'want, I
could not help taking a walk to the Royal Exchange, where I ob-
served the correctness of the criticism respecting the repairs and
beautifying the statues, labels, and building, and found too woe the
Justness of the remark*, to the national disgrace. It therefore in.
duees me to call your Lordship's attention to the subject, as being,
by virtue of your ()Mee, invested with the privilege of being Chair-
man of Gresham College. If this is the case, I wit fully persuaded
it is only necessary to request your Lordship to view the internal
part of the Royal Exchange, to cause justice to be done to as linos
pile of building as can be found in any country—to nacre dila-
pidated and neglected beauty to its pristine state; and no Irma
starer the just sneers and contemptuous sarcasms of foreigner to
continue, who describe the citizens of London more fond of good
eating than of adorning their beautiful public buildings.

We are happy to state, that his Majesty was on Wed-

The following is from the lirez,rhion Gatette of {Yreka-
day : —‘• We regret to say that his Majesty is suffering un-
der a return of the gout, which came on early on Sunday
3;:orling. llis Majesty had, we understand, felt slightly
i.alispoall the pree.ding evening. The attack was rather
severe ; but we have the satisfaction to learn that his Ma-
jesty is recovering from its eftl.cts, and is now considerably
bett,:.. The answer to the nunwrous inquiries at the Pa-
lace yesterday, and up to a late hour lat.t night, were of a
very favourable nature. It is not expected, under there
circumstances,. that hia Majesty will he able to fulfil his
that intention of opening P.irliament in person, as, though
his 17t-41:cal attendants confidently expect that a few days
will re,tore the King to the pt session or perfect twiaih,
yet i: would be hardly considered prudent to sanction a
journey to London at this s,ason of the year. We under-
.:taud that his Majesty will hold a Privy Council at the Pa-
vilion, on Saturday rest.

70 THE EDITOR OF IHE BRITISH PRESS.

•
London, alas 4, 14.
Sin—A contemporary Print (The !whim (tbrerrer) has
lately endeavoured to enlighten the public on the subject
of the East India Company's monopoly of the China trade,
but in so doing has resorted to a senes of misrepresenta-
' dons and a perversion of facts. I shall only notice one
misstatement at present, from its being introduced as a
piece of recent intelligence from India. It is stated that
their last communications have acquainted them with the
news that the Amerigans are carrying on a most lucrative
trade with Chinas through the means of the Sandwich
, Islands, by bartering American manufactures for sandal-
:wood, which sells at China at an exorbitant price, where it
is exchar.oed for tea; and further states, that by this mode
of trading the Americans make immense profits. They
would lead the English public to believe, that this is the
only, or it least the chief medium by which the Americans
obtain their tea. Now, out of 16 American ships arrived
in China last year, up to the month of October, one only
was from the Sandwich Islands: and if she had been en-
tirely laden with sandal-weed, the probable sale amount of
her cargo would not be more than '25,000 dollars. The
gross annual amount of American imports from China has
been lately stated in official documents presented to ('on-
s.ress, at upwards of 6,000,00) dollars. The quantity of
sandal-wood taken to China therefore forms a proportion
scarcely worthy of notice compared to this sum.
No recent intelligence from India is necessary to inform
us that the Americans have beets for many year; in the ha-
Mt of going to the Feejee Islands for sandal-wood to take
to China, but the amount has never been to the extent that
the Ir dine Ol,scrrer would lead the public to believe. It
is well known that Spanish dollars are the chief medium
by which the Americans carry on their trade with China,
excepting when they first snake a voyage to Europe for
English manufactures, or opium. On a future occasion I
may resume the consideration of this &abject ; and 1 am,
Sir, your most obedient servant,

M. SArras coxernt

This gentleman evinced in his selection last night (at
the New Argyll Rooms) altogether a mcst happy and
highly-intellectual taste. His pieces were of the choicest,'
from the best masters ; his instrumental performers were
the most celebrated ; and last, but far from the least, his
vocalists were of the very first rank. It is with sincerity
we declare our regret at not being able to say ail we feel
on the subject of the evening's banquet. Everything was'
admirable, and we know how hazardous it is for a critic
to say so. But what could exceed the " Gratis, animus
tibi," by Mrs. Salmon ? What could surpass Miss Paton in
" The Soldier tir'd," who gave it twice in a style most
exquisite ; and yet (so poor is language) not so exquisite;
as Miss Stephens's " Donald," which was also repeated,
leaving on the heart a gusto of the tenderest pathos, that
not even the softness of Miss M. Tree's " Sweet Home"
I could remove. Mr. Braham was in excellent voice.—
Mr.
A. Sapio math: his first attempt in public last night,'
and so far as the aria " Agitato eel seno roe acnto" gave him
an opportunity to display his powers, we consider him like-
ly to succeed in obtaining a very respectable station in his
profession. llis voice is bass, admitting, at the same time,
a mellowed tenor in the lower tones, that experience will
erupow:r him to use by-and-bye in a blend, ti unison, which
will throw him into a class of skgers that is somewhat se-
lect, the two properties of his yoke nut bring so frequently
ire. with in the same person as is commonly supposed.
"I he Misses Cawse sang very pleasingly, and were received
in Cie most flattering manner. Th:• Convert was attended
by persons of the very drat circles, and the efieet was alto-
getlicr most splendid.

ST. PATRICK'S DINNER.

Yesterday the anniversary dinner of this exceellett and
useful charity took place at the Freemasons Tavern. The
chair wit to have been taken by the Duke of Sussex, hut
owing to the severe hurt in Ins knee, his Ro3al highness
wit prevented frods attending, and Sir John Doyle, G C.D.
presided, who read a letter frem the Royal Duke,
regreting his inability to attend, and expressing his
great anxiety to support the Charity. " Religious in-
struction (said the Royal Duke) was charity, and every
good Christian, upon this principle, ought to allow that
consolation to his fellow-creature which accorded best with
individual feelings, and not make religious sincaity, which
was a most benign and consolatory blessing, a stumbling-
block in the way of educatinn." Amongst the many di,-
tinguished persons prtsent we noticed—Lord Stourton,
Sir George Jerningham, th Hon. E. Petry. the Greek
Deputies, Massey Dav:sen, E, q , Rev. Dr. Collins,
&c. After " The King"--- The Duke of York and the
Army"—and several other loyal toasts, had been given,l
