THE MURDER AT PADDINGTON•

Yesterday the jury sitting to inquire into the death of
Renry Groves, who was brutally starved and beaten to
death under circumstances of a revolting character, which
have already appeared, waited upon Mr. Waddington.
Under-Secretary for the Home Department, at the
Home•office, to request that the accused party, named
Sophy Knight, at present in custody charged with the
murder, might be brought before them at the next sit-
ting. Lord Palmerston being out of town, the deputa-
tion, consisting of the whole body of jurors, immediately
procured an interview with Mr. Waddington.
The Foreman (Mr. Harris) explained the objects of
the deputation, which were to do justice to the accused,
by allowing her a chance of confronting her accusers,
and pointing out any guilty parties that might likewise
be concerned in the child's death ;W for it was evident to
them (the jury), as well as Mr. akley, the coroner,
that the cruelty and brutality to which the deceased was
subjected was countenanced by others, whose conduct
would have to be, therefore, taken into consideration as
well as the accused.
Mr. Waddington observed that he could not see the
utility of the accused appearing before the coroner, as
that inquiry was merely a preliminary one, the coroner
not even having the power to order a person into custody
until a criminal verdict was returned. Besides, in
ninety-nine cases out of a hundred the guilty party or
parties could not be detected, and yet such investigations
could be as well proceeded with, and therefore he
did not think the presence of the accused would in the
least assist the inquiry.
Mr. Clark remarked that it was important in the pre-
sent case above all others that the accused should be
present, if only for the object of identification.
Mr. Waddington said he had no objection in assisting
the views of the jury if identification was the object
sought, but the application should come through Mr
upon
the as judge of the court, and not the jury,
the receipt of which he would gladly comply with the
request.
The Deputation thanked Mr. Waddington for the
most courteous manner in which they had been received,
and they withdrew.
Upon leaving the Home-office the jury went direct to
Mr. Wakley, who was from home, but the deputy-
coroner, Mr. Brent, assured the jury that he had no
doubt Mr. Wakley would gladly avail himself of the oP •
portunity afforded for doing justice to the accused.

SPAIN.

The decree dissolving the corps of Guardias de la
Reina, and re-organising the Royal Halberdiers, is
published, countersigned by General O'Donnell.
A saving of 1,400,000 reals is stated to result from
this measure.

The Madrid Chamber of Commerce has petitioned
the Government that the amounts contributed
towards the forced loans may be allowed against the
next two quarters payment of taxes.
The corporation of Madrid will continue its func-
tions, the Government having refused to accept its
resignation, and addressed a flattering communica-
tion to that effect.

An effort was made by some members of the Ma-
drid Junta to get that body to break up, but after a
long debate the motion was withdrawn, and the
Junta will remain till the Cortes meet.

THE BATTLE OF ALMA.

With his usual promptitude Mr. Wyld has just
published a very graphic map of the Battle of the
Alma. It is the most perspicuous delineation of
that glorious event which we have yet seen. Not
only are the positions of the rival armies clearly
defined before the day of battle, but the relative
positions of the Allies- the night after the victory.
The relative anchorage of the fleets flanking the
shore is also graphically illustrated, with the names
of the respective vessels, steamers, and line-of-
battle ships. Altogether, this is a map which every
one will be proud and delighted to examine over
and over again, and still and often refer to.

PIMLICO LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC INSTITUTION....-
The result of the public meeting held some time ago
has enabled the Rev. Mr. Hamilton, and the friends of
the institution, to place it on an improved footing. A
large number of members have already enrolled them-
selves for the winter quarters. Last night, Dr. W.
Vesalius Pettigrew delivered an introductory lecture, at
which many of the influential supporters of the institu-
tion were also present.
THE "BRICKS" OFF THE FIRST DIVISION.--A COT-
poral of the 424 Highlanders, inthe Duke of Cambridge's
division, writes home--" After the battle, the Duke
himself came up, the same as if he was one of our
chums, and at the same time up comes a colonel on
hor;:ebAck. ' I have to thank your Royal Highness for
saving us to-day.' 'Oh,' says the Duke, you must not
thank me, for these are the gentlemen that won the day
and saved you.' The colonel replied, And Sir Colin,
too.' ' A b,' says the Duke, ` Sir Colin is a brick.'
Ay,' says a sergeant of ours, and you are a brick
yourself,' and we so gave them three times three."

FORGE-RY OF AN INSOLVENT "PROTECTION."—At the
Bristol police court, on Saturday, a respectably attired
young man named John Gollifer, who had been until re-
cently a clerkk in the offices of two or three leading legal
establishments in that city, was placed at the bar and
charged with having feloniously forged and uttered a
certain document, purporting to be an interim order for
protection by Sir John Eardley Wilmot, Bart., judge
of the county court of Gloucestershire, sitting at Bristol,
with intent to defraud one William Gillard. After hear-
ing evidence, the magistrates committed the prisoner to
take his trial for forgery at the next Gloucestershire
assizes.—Bristol Paper.

THE "COMING" CAPTURE
London, England, 1854-10-18

MELANCHOLY SUICIDE OF TWO SL: TE S.

NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, Monday Evening.--Je,::. as the
inhabitants of this town were recovering from the shock
occasioned by the recent calamitous accident, the public
feeling has been again wounded by the death of two fine
young women, sisters, under circumstances to which a
melancholy interest attaches. Their names were Ellen
and Isabella Rohinges, and respectively about 17 and 15
years, and they were the daughters of a man named
Zekiel Robinson, who has long been employed at the
glass-works of Wright, Brothers, and Co., in this town,
and who resides in Duke-street. The two deceased and
another elder and unmarried daughter lived with their
father there, all three girls being occupied daily from
home in some employment by which they assisted in
maintaining themselves, the youngest working in the
establishment of a bookbinder.

It appeared that late on Saturday night, when the father
was not in the house, a quarrel arose among the three
unfortunate sisters, all of whom slept in one bed, which
eventually became exceedingly violent. In the midst of
the disturbance the father returned home in liquor, it is
said, and either ordered the elder of the deceased to leave
the house, or said something which induced her to do
so. She is described as being of an exceedingly irritable
and stubborn temper. She left the house with little
mere than her night clothes on, and never returned. Her
father relenting, and dreading that she would catch cold,
sent the youngest of the sisters after her with her bonnet
and shawl ; but not coating back again he went in
search of them, but, they could nowhere be found, though
the remainder of the night was spent in anxious inqui-
ries concerning them. Their melancholy fate was not
known until yesterday morning, when they were dis-
covered drowned in the river in the vicinity of Elswick,
about two miles from this town, by a man named George
Todd, and, ib is said, locked in each other's arms. They
were conveyed to the dead-house in Pandon, where they
await a coroner's inquest. They are described by those
who knew them as industrious girls of good character.
As they lay side by side in the dead-house to-day theyt
presented a touching spectacle, " decay's effacing fingers"
not having yet obliterated
remarkable.

London, England, 1854-10-18

Of the conquest of &hide, Napier writes :--•

"Europe will have more to fear than India. But is
Russia really to be feared in Europe ! This is a ques-

tion easier Co ask than to answer.

" The profound falsehood of her Government—her
barbarous corruption—her artificial pretensions—the
glitter of her regular armies, shining only from the pu-
trescence of national feeling, would lead to the negative.
Her surprising progress in acquisition of territory, within
the last hundred years, would lead to the affirmative.

" If we belive those writers who have described the
ramifications of the one huge falsehood of pretension,
which they say pervades Russia, her barbarity, using
the word in its fall signification, would appear more
terrible than her strength.
" Nor can I question their accuracy, having, in 1815,
when the reputation of the Russian troops was highest,
detected the same falsehood of display without real
strength. For, from the imperial parades on the Boule-
vards at Paris, where, oiled, bandaged, and clothed, to
look like men whom British soldiers would be proud to
charge on a field of battle, the Muscovite was admired.
I followed him to his billet, where, stripped of his dis-
guise, he appeared short of stature, squalid, and meagre,
his face rigid with misery, shocking sight and feeling.
A British soldier would have offered him bread rather
than the bayonet.
" Nevertheless, some innate expanding and dangerous
strength must belong to a nation which, during long
contests with the most warlike people of continental
Europe, led by Frederick and Napoleon, has steadily
advanced by arms and by policy, appropriating whole
countries to herself, until her Cossacks may now encamp
on her own territories within a few marches of Vienna,
Berlin, Stockholm, and Constantinople. Her regular
armies may be bad, her fleets in the Baltic and Black
Sea may be worse ; but they are there ; and she can
send half a million of wild Norsemen, who, without pay,
would invade Europe for the plunder ; sustained by
regular armies on the Russian frontier, they would make
such ravage as half a century could not repair. The
chances of revolution have been spoken of as the remedy
for the Muscovite power ; but who can predict that re-
volution will not augment, rather than diminish, her
warlike strength and ambition ? Her policy is national,
and it menaces freedom, and happiness, and civilisation.
Poland was the first error of Europe in respect to
Russia ; Circassia may be the second ; Constantinople
the last and greatest."
So far Sir WILLIAM NAPIER ten years ago.
Compare his words with our own knowledge of
facts as regards the army of the CZAR, and let
each ask himself whether the hour has not almost
arrived that his forces should be driven out of the
Caspian, and Poland made an independent nation
and an outpost for the security of Europe. We
said so more than twenty-five years ago.

A long list of payments to the extent of 37,000/, was

LATEST NEWS.

THE SIEGE OF SEBASTOPOL.

VIENNA, TUESDAY EVENING.

The Vienna papers state, that on the sth and
Gth the Allies opened their first parallel at a con-
siderable distance from the southern wall of Se-

bastopol.
The siege works began with the construction of
nine batteries, fi're of which front the Quarantine
harbour. The force in the siege works consists of
3,600 men, and 60,000 men, with 150 guns,
are posted on the left banks of Chernaya to pro-
tect the besiegers.

Prince Mensohikoff is in want of provisions and

ammunition.
It is said that six small steamers will attempt

to force the passage of the Straits of Yenikale.
The Lloyd states that the Allies continually
harrassed the Russians in Sebastopol in order to
discover the strength of the garrison and the
best points of attack.
It also says that the Russian fleet had quitted
its usual anchorage in the small harbour, and was
now moored on the north side of the larger har-
bour, between Fort Catherine and No. 9 battery.

We have received the following communication
from Paris, under the date of

" PARIS, TrtEspAy EVENING.
" 'MARSEILLES, OCT. 16.

" The marines of the fleet have requested and
obtained permission to take part in the bombard-
ment of Sebastopol.
" ' Each ship will supply a company and eight
guns, giving a total of 200 pieces.' "

ST. PETERSBURG, OCT. 15.

A despatch from Prince Menschikoff states that
up the 9th instant Sebastopol had not been
attacked, and that Russian reinforcements from
Perekop were rapidly approaching to join him.

DENMARK.
COPENHAGEN, TUESDAY, OCT. 17.
The Danish Commons last night finally ap-

proved of the address to the King.
They renew the demand fors free Constitution
in the whole State, as in Denmark.
The revolutionary act of July is entirely
ignored.

The address was adopted by 90 to 1.
The Upper House will adopt the same declara-
tion, and a deputation therefrom will join the
deputation of the Lower House.
HAMBURG, OCT. 16.

According to an order from the French Mi-
nister of Marine, Admiral Parseval Deschenes has
left Kiel for France with the Austerlitz and In-
flexible line-of-battle ships, and two steam-
frigates.
London, England, 1854-10-18

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, Oct. 15.—The Berlin correspondent of
the Breslatter Zeitung gives a resume of what the
official despatches from St. Petersburg have in-
formed the Russian embassy here. Prince Mens-.
chikoff had very soon recognised the intention of
the Allies to make a simultaneous attack on Sebas-
topol by land and sea, and therefore the vessels
were sunk at the entrance of the harbour. The
allies were in consequence obliged to alter their
plan entirely, and to reduce the double attack
on north and south to a single one in the south.
The capture of Sebastopol is thus made much more
difficult, for even after the town is taken there will
still remain the strong forts to b• destroyed ; Fort
Alexander with 90 guns, Nicolaus with 200, Paul
with 84, Catherine with 120, and Constantine with
110 guns. In the attack on all these they (the
Allies) are deprived of the assistance of the fleet,
which, nevertheless, is highly necessary.
The Berlin correspondent of the Presse writes
that a courier has recently brought an autograph
letter from the Emperor Nicholas to the King of
Prussia. The Frankfort Post Zeitung has a letter
of the 10th from Berlin, in which it is said that the
Prussian party entertains great hopes that the
straightforward language of the Austrian Govern-
ment will tend to drive the Prussian Cabinet " into
a more intimate connexion with Russia."
London, England, 1854-10-18

FIGHTING ON THE DANUBE.

VIENNA, Oct. 13.—We (Fianna .Presse) receive
from Galatz, and a reliable source, the news that
700 Bashi-bazouks, the vanguard of the Turkish
army, advancing from Bucharest, Giurgevo, and
Kalarasch, entered Ibraila on the 6th instant. The
whole army is to be concentrated near Ibraila by
the 18th.

A skirmish took place on the 30th of September
between the Turkish and Russian patrols, in which
losses ensued on both sides. The spot where the
fight took place lies between Tultsha and Isaktcha.
The Russians retreated to their boats, and then
recrossed the Danube.

BucnenEsr, Oct. 4.—The Prussian Gazette says :
"Near Kalarasc'i there are 15,000 Egyptian and
Turkish troops encamped. The encampment will
shortly be broken up, as these troops, too, are go-
ing to the Dobrudscha. Troops from England and.
France are coming very shortly, according to gene-
ral rumour, but they are to be reshipped for the
Crimea. The winter will hardly cause any cessa-
tion of hostilities."
London, England, 1854-10-18

POLAND.

CRACOW, Oct. 9.—Cracow is not capable of being
converted into a regular fortress, but will have in
all likelihood an entrenched camp with detached
forts. These forts, not yet finished, are Kosciusko
on what was formerly the Bronislava bill, Veuedek
on the Krzemionka heights and the right bank of
the Vistula, Dombie at the ford, and Fort Warsaw
not far from Prondnik on the Warsaw road.
The recklessness with which the Russians are
compelling the Polish landowners to send in the
supplies lately ordered by a special decree sur-
passes belief. The quota of each person is as-
sessed without ascertaining whether it even exists
or not on the estate. The quantity is ordered and
there it must be, there it shall be ; and as for
paying honestly, there .is not even an attempt to
do so, for they pay what they please, often a
third of the real value.

oe more probable
was so. What, then, cou2 •
valiant fellows and
than that a portion of our
-11 v engaged
their faithful allies--not those actu.- .
in pushing forward the entrenchments of
COD-
structing, the batteries—may have sought a little '
closer acquaintanceship with their Russian friends.
It would be desirable to cut off all the
communications, and to completely hem in
the defenders, and MENSCHISOFF, might in
his eagerness, have got himself into a
position from which he could not easily retreat.
Our troops would desire nothing better than an-
other conflict, where they would meet the adver-
sary on more equal terms, as to position, &c.,
than on the Alma. Should that desire be grati-
fied, we have no doubt but that they gave a good
acsount of the enemy. A victory, under such cir-
cumstances, would have a powerful effect in de-
pressing the defenders, so that their energies
would be completely paralysed when they saw the
support, on which they might have placed con-
siderable reliance, withdrawn—or rather disgrace-
fully drawn off. Many of the garrison might be
tempted out to assist their compatriots. All the
operations and preparations for the siege would,
of course, be carried on without interruption by
the working division, while their fighting brethren
were otherwise actively engaged. No time would
thus be lost ; but, on the contrary, the great
object, the capture or destruction of Sebastopol,
will be materially accelerated.
We do not assert these matters as facts. We
simply put them forward as speculations respect-
ing the probable events that might naturally fol-
low the state of affairs with which we were pre-
viously acquainted. The disposal of MENSCHI-
KOFF'S army would absorb the attention of Lord
RAGLAN, so as to prevent him from sending the
despatches that would otherwise have been trans-
mitted. We should therefore feel by no means
surprised if we received something really worth
learning—announcing not merely the opening of
the bombardment, but another victory, not less
glorious than that of Alma itself, and even more
important than that splendid achievement.

PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING.
We are still without any official news from the
Crimea, and the private telegraphic despatches
received within the last two days by way of Vienna
are SQ obscure and contradictory that it is unsafe to
place any reliance on them.
The Constitutionnel says :
" The Government has received news from the Cri-
mea by the Teldmaque steamer, which left Constanti-
nople on the sth, and had on board M. d'Abrantes,
orderly officer to Prince Napoleon, and another officer
of the staff. The news brought by the Teldmaque is
most satisfactory. The works of the siege were going
on with activity, and under most favourable conditions.
The sanitary state of the army left nothing to be de-
sired ; the soldiers were full of ardour, and no one
doubted of success."
The Post-office administration has directed that
the arrivals and departures of the Levant packets
should be regulated in a more satisfactory manner
for the public ; so that in future those packets
shall not simultaneously reach Marseilles, and leave
an iaterval of a week or two before the next ar-
rival. The departure for Constantinople are hare-
after to take place on the 2d, 6th, 12th, ICtb., 22d,
and 26th of each month, and the returns on the
4th, Bth, 14th, 18th, 24th, and 28th.

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

PROCLAMATION TO THE MOLDAVIANS.
The proclamation addressed by Dervish Pacba,
the Turkish commissioner in the Danubian Princi-
palities, to the Moldavians, on the entry of the
Austrian troops into Jassy, is published in the
Orfoniteur of yesterday. It is as follows. The
passages we have printed in italics read like irony.

" Moldavians,—llis Imperial Majesty the Sultan, our
gracious Sovereign, out of his high and paternal care for
his subjects, 'without any distinction, has been pleated to
give you a new proof of his benevolence, in[condescend-
in,q to appoint me his imperial commissioner in the two
Principalities, to watch over your interests, and re-estab-
lish the order which has unfortunately been disturbed by
the injustice and self-will of the Russian Government.
While making known to you this gracious determination
of his Imperial Majesty, I hasten to make the following
communication :—The Sublime Porte, having concluded
a special convention with the Government of his Imperial
and Apostolic Majesty, as it had previously done with
the Governments of France and Great Britain, it is my
duty to inform you, that according to the tenour of this
treaty, Austrian troops will enter provisionally into the
two Principalities. The presence of these troops in Mol-
davia need not disquiet you, since they enter as belonging
to a Power friendly and allied to the Sublime Porte ;
they will occasion no charge to you, since they will pay
regularly in specie for everything they require to buy in
the country. The Russians having definitively quitted the
Principalities, the former order of things is re-established,
and his Highness Prince Ghika has received orders
to resume the reins of government. Your ancient pri-
vileges and immunities are and will be maintained, and
you will thereby see that the maintenance of these pri-
vileges is no ways due to treaties which have been annulled,
but to the benevolent and paternal care of his Impe-
rial Majesty, the Sultan, our gracious master, whose
honour and glory are deeply interested in their conserva-
tion. Moldavian:3, your country has suffered much ;
but under the protecting shield of our gracious sovereign
everything is about to re-enter into its normal condition.
Till circumstances permit a more happy development, you
ought to continue to obey the laws by which you are
governed, and to preserve that sentiment of respect for
them which is indispensable to the happiness and pro-
sperity of a country. By this means nothing will be
more easy and agreeable than to maintain the public
order and tranquillity, over which our august sovereign
has charged me to watch carefully. I place all reliance

LIVERPOOL—Ocr. 17.
At the corn market to-day quotations were irregularly
given. The buyers operated very cautiously, and bought
nothing beyond immediate wants. The advance since last
Tuesday upon wheat was about 6d per bushel, and on flour
2s to 4s per sack and barrel. Barrel flour was in greater
request and improved in price. Indian corn advanced about
is per qr. In oats, beans, and peas no change of value.

COEN EXCHANGE.
We had a very limited supply of English wheat on sale
in to-day's market. The businep doing was comparatively
small, yet. most of the factors ,refused to sell," except at
prices somewhat above those of Monday. The trade was
decidedly firm.
The show of foreign wheat was small. Fine heavy
parcels wore again rather dearer, and the value of other
qualities was well supported. Floating cargoes Were iu
demand, and held for more money..
Barley and malt moved off steadily, at vary fall prices.
We had a brisk sale for oats, at 6d. to is. per quarter
more money.
Beans and peas commanded extreme rates.
The floor trade was active. Tie best American flour
was worth 38s. to 40s. per barrel. Town-made was up to
60s. par sack. •

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, Oct. 15.—The Berlin correspondent of
the Breslauer Zeitung gives a resume of what the
official despatches from St. Petersburg have in-
formed the Russian embassy here. Prince Mens-
chikoff had very soon recognised the intention of
the Allies to make a simultaneous attack on Sebas-
topol by land and sea, and therefore the vessels
were sunk at the entrance of the harbour. The
allies were in consequence obliged to alter their
plan entirely, and to reduce the double attack
on north and south to a single one in the south.
The capture of Sebastopol is thus made much more
difficult, for •von after the town is taken there will
still remain the strong forts to'be destroyed ; Fort
Alexander with 90 guns, Nicolaus with 200, Paul
with 84, Catherine with 120, and Constantine with
110 guns. In the attack on all these they (the
Allies) are deprived of the assistance of the fleet,
which, nevertheless, is highly necessary.
The Berlin correspondent of the Presse writes
that a courier has recently brought an autograph
letter from the Emperor Nicholas to the King of
Prussia. The Frankfort Post Zeitung has a letter
Of the 10th from Berlin, in which it is said that the
Prussian party entertains great hopes that the
straightforward language of the Austrian Govern-
ment will tend to drive the Prussian Cabinet " into
a more intimate connexion with Russia."
