THE NEW NOVEL, "BROO., ILL ; OR, THE COUNTY
BEAUTIES.""--There has been already much excitement
raised about this tale, and great efforts, we believe, are
made to discover who the authoress may be—for most
assuredly a " lady is in the case,"—and one, too who per-
fectly understands the habits of fashionable society in
the country as well as the customs of the metropolitan
West-end salons and boudoirs. The story relates to the
fortunes of two sisters, one of whom marries from incli-
nation, whilst the other weds a man whom she does not
love, becaue the person on whom she had set her affec-
tions is unworthy of her. Out of these circumstances,
occurring in the higher circles of fashion, is woven a most
agreeable tale. The incidents are wrought out with a
delicacy of feeling which does infinite credit to the tastes
and sentiments of the authoress.—Messenger.
THE SCHOONER FAVOURITE.—There appears but little
doubt now that this unfortunate vessel is totally lost,
having sailed from this port for Sydney on the 9th of
May last, and no intelligence having been received of her.
A correct list of her crew and passengers never having
been given to the public, to some of whom it may be of
consequence, we subjoin one, taken from the list given
by the master to the water-police previous to sailing :
Passengers—Cabin—Sir M. !Chapman, Mr, Montague
Featherstone, Captain Kersopp, Lieutenant Fitzgerald,
Mr. Peppers, Mr. J. M. Smythe, Mr. E. Campbell, Mr.
Woollaston, Mr. Shipley, and Miss Fry. Steerage.

It appeared that the prisoner, who is a workman
at
Sheffield, had courted a young woman, whom had he known from childhood, named Sarah Slater, who was in
employment at the Messrs. Butchers, Sheffield manu-
facturers. She was a woman of great personal attrac-
tions, and attended the reading class at the Lyceum, in
Sheffield, for the purpose of educating herself. The re-
sult, however, of the prisoner's intercourse, was the birth
of a female child, which, at the time of its death, was
above 18 months old. The prisoner had often entreated
he
the
co Yuld oung woman to marry him, which she resisted until

procured an order of affiliation on the pri-
soner, by which he was compelled to pay 2s. a week for
its maintenance. The child was kept at Sarah Slater's
mother's, and the prisoner having become in an-ear

THE SHIPBUILDING TRADE.-SunERLAND, DEC. 20.
—There are at present fitting out in this Port 20 new
vessels, the aggregate tonnage of which amounts to
8,661 tons ; and upon the stocks in the building
ards
nearly a similar amount of vessels of an aggregate ton-
nage. While the building of timber ships is so active
in the Wear, iron shipbuilding Is very brisk on the
Tyne. One firm on the Tyne is launching an iron
vessel, on an average, every month ; another is execu-
ting a large order for the Austrian Lloyds ; and the
builders of the W. S. Lindsay have a vessel of 1,800
tons burden ready for launching, and have laid down the
keels of three other large iron vessels. Last week an
iron vessel was launched by Messrs. To-ward, of St.
Peter's, for Portugal ; and last spring, Messrs. Palmer,
of Jarrow, launched a large iron screw-collier, the
William Hutt, for the General Screw Collier Company.
Messrs. Smith, of Newcastle, have also launched a large
timber paddle-steamer for the Demerara o • packet
service ; and have a frigate en the stocks for .' Sicilian
Government.
PETERBOROUGH ELECTION.—A petition from certain
electors of Peterborough has been presented against the
return of Mr. G. H. halley, who contested the repre-
sentation with Mr. Cornewall Lewin, praying that the re-
turn of the former may be declared null aid void, on the 1
ground of bribery and corruption.

The prisoner's wife was led forward by the officer and
placed in a chair, but although she was evidently in such
a state of debility and suffering that she was unable to
support herself even in a sitting position without assist-
ance, she declined for some time to furnish any account
of the transaction, and exhibited a pertinacious determi-
nation to shield her brutal husband from the consequences I
of his savage conduct towards her. After a good deal
of prevarication and evasion, she at length admitted that
the prisoner had dragged her out of bed and knocked
her down, but she positively denied that he either kicked
or jumped upon her, and declared that she had previously
provoked him to such a degree that she fully deserved
all she had received.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] Holloway's Ointment and Pills,
the most Effectual Remedies ever known for Gout and
Rheumatism.—Extract of a letter from Mr. Thomas
Wyborn, druggist, Eton, dated April 26, 1852.—" To
Professor Holloway. Sir,—A case has lately come
under my notice which I think should be publicly.
known. It is that of a poor man who suffered so dread-
fully from chronic rheumatism that he lost the use of
one side, and endured incessant pain. He was under
different medical treatment, and at Westminster Hospital
the faculty pronounced him incurable ; however, this
was not the case, for by your Ointment and Pills he
has been restored to health and strength." Sold by
all druggists, and at Professor Holloway's establish-
ment, 244, Strand, London,

SPlCES.—Pimento is not much required, and there being
a more plentiful supply, prices have declined gd to Ad per
lb. The public sales of 1,600 bags went at 5/d to 5d for
good middling to good, and at 4d to 5d for low middling
to middling. Cloves continue to be wanted, and are not
in larger supply—sales privately of Penang, at lid to is /d ;
Amboyna, 7Ad to 8d ; and Bourbon, 64d to 6/. Ginger
attracts little attention either for the home or foreign, but
the currency is maintained in consequence of a limited
quantity on offer.

Prisoner : She knows very well that she tore my shirt
when I catched hold of her, and she would never have
come here at all but for the doctor and the policeman,
who wanted to make a county job of it.
The wife : And that's nothing but the blessed truth.
I don't want to hurt him at all; for he's a good husband.
Mr. D'Eyncourt said it was perfectly manifest, if he
