IVY MADNESS OF LOVE.

An Irish girl, about 24 years of age (a native of
Limerick), named Brid011; M`Guire, who possesses con-
siderable personal attractijuls, settled at Northampton.
About the same time (three years since), a young me-
chanic (now not more than 21.1) went from Leicester, and
took up his abode at the same place, having there dh-
tained employment in one of the ironfounderies., Bridget
became acquainted with this young mechanic, and a
fond attachment sprang up betw.len them ; but it ap-
pears she left Northampton—under what circumstances
we have not heard—and proceeded to Watford, where
she says she was married to a mail named Clarke,
who, however, at the time assun2 ed the name of
Graves. The union did not prove a happy one ; for
Clarke, in a fortnight after the celebrat'on of the nup-
tials, forsook his wife and went to Dunstable, where he
married again. Poor Bridget, much disteopered in her
mind, returned to Northampton, to seek ,her former
lover. He, it appears, left Northampton About this
time and returned to Leicester. Bridget:;. almost
broken-hearted, resolved to proceed to LeicestOr also.
She found out that he was employed at a large factory
in Bond-street, and that he lived in Talbot-lane, with a
female who was now the paramount object of admira•
tion to her faithless lover. The young man thought to
destroy the locust of ill-requited love, by calling
the law to his aid ; and accordingly, he procured
a summons against Bridget. When the case came be.
fore the magistrates, he declared that his life
was in danger, and Bridget, protesting that such
was not the case, was required to give occurity for
a month that she would not break the peace. This
decision evidently astonished her not a little. " His life
in danger. He knows very differently ;he knows I love
him too much to hurt a hair of his head, but be with
him I will." The requisite bond was not forthcoming,
and the poor girl was given into the custody of Mr.
Noon, at the borough gaol. Here she determined to
die of starvation, and refused to eat or drink. At last, at
the only hope left, Mr. Noon intimated to the girl that
there was a probability that the young man would be
willing to be bound for her, when he knew the state she
was in, and promised that he would send for him in the
morning if she would partake of some refreshment. At
this promise her eyes glistened, and the desired effect was
accomplished. Some toast and tea were sent from the
governor's own table, and the girl at once made a meal
lof them. The next morning Mr. Noon, according to

promise, had the young man in attendance at the gaol,
and it was agreed that he should find_bail for the girl.
on condition that she left in Mr. Noon's possession a
valuable watch she had until the bail had expired.
Bridget was now out of gh,ol, and in order that no an-
noyance should be given to the young man during the
rest of the month, she consented to spend Christmas a
few miles from Leicester, in a family, where she had
formerly resided as cook. But no sooner had the
month expired than she again returned to Leicester,
and haunted the young mechanic continually, both in
his goings out and in his comings in. Throughout
the day there would be crowds of people around his
house to listen to the girl's tale of grief ; at times she
would pace up and down the street ; then she would sit
upon the steps at the door of the house she was watch-
ing, singing a plaintive ditty, and when the loved ono
came out, the girl would quietly follow him to his work-
place, and then wait to escort him home. The conse-
quence of this conduct was a second charge before the
magistrates. The authorities, therefore, issued a war-
rant for her apprehension, and on Thursday, the 20th
instant, she was taken before J. Hudson, Esq., at the
Town-hall, and there Mr. J. H. Stallard certified that
she was a proper subject for the Lunatic Asylum, to
which place she was at once removed.

THE CHOLERA IN Russia.—On the 20th ult., thero
were 591 cholera patients under treatment at St. Peters-
burg. During that day there were 55 new cases, 23
cures, and 21 deaths, leaving 577 under treatment.
THE DIGGINGS.—As an example of the extraordinary
excitement which at present exists here on this subject,
it may be mentioned that there are at present 17 vessels
on the berth in our harbour, bound for the Australian
colonies ; and there are at least four more about to be
laid on for the same quarter. When it is considered
how many of the more energetic and enterprising of our
population will be thus removed from the field of labor
in this country ; the immense quantities of goods ex•
ported ; and the large amount of gold taken by the emi-
grants—the consequences will be most inr_portant to our
remaining population, and on the whole de,lidedly bene-
ficial.—North, British. Daily Mail.
THE VICTIM OF SEDUCTION.—Some sensation was
caused, in 1851, by the arrest of a man named Helliot
in Paris, on the charge of having enticed to his house
and seduced several young girls, and committed other
scandalous excesses. This man called himself a Ru,ssian.
Baron, but he was really only a French hair-dresser,
who had obtained a large fortune at St. Petersburg.
He affected great piety, and was an active patron of
several charitable institutions. He was condemned to

respectable parents, residing in a provincial town near
Paris, with whom he had been acquainted before his de-
parture for Russia, and with whom he renewed his inti-
macy on his return. He had persuaded them to confide her to
him, under the promise that he would protect her, pro-
vide for her, and at his death leave her part of his for-
tune ; but no sooner had he got her into his house than
he seduced her and made her notwithstanding her ex-
treme youth, his mistress. When her parents learned
this, which they only did by reading the account of his
arrest in the newspapers, they were distracted. But he
had the art to pacify them by promising that he would
still duly provide for her ; and in consequence they
not appear as complainants at his trial, whereby he was
probably saved from severer punishment. After this
condemnation, however, he refused to do anything for
the girl and her parents. The latter accordingly brought
an action before the Civil Tribunal to recover 20,00*.
The defendant by his counsel endeavoured to prove that
the girl had been seduced before he had anything to do
with her. He also stated that his fortune was nothing
like so large as had been represented. The tribunstly
however, condemned him to pay 15,000 francs damages
and ordered shat the sum should be invested for the
girl in 41 per cent, stock.

All letters and newspapers for the Australian Colo-
nies (except such as may be specially addressed " via
Marseilles") will be forwarded by the packets via Ply-
mouth, or via Southampton, according as they may be
posted in time for either line of packets. Postmasters
will see that this regulation differs from the regulation
laid down for the dispatch of letters to India, which, as
a rule, are forwarded via Marseilles unless specially
directed to be sent by another route, whilst letters to
Australia will be conveyed by the long sea route as the
rule, and only via Marseilles when so directed. This is
necessary, as letters via Marseilles can only be for-
warded to Australia once in two months, and, if inad-
vertently posted without any special address, would be
subject to a very long delay.
The postage uponletters for any of the Australian colo-
nies, when conveyed by packet, either via Plymouth or
via Southampton, will be ls. the half ounce, and when
addressed to be sent via Marseilles, is. 10d. if under a
quarter of an ounce, 2s. 3d. if weighing a quarter of an
ounce and not exceeding half an ounce, and so on, ac-
cording to the scale in operation for charging letters ad-
dressed to India.

Newspapers, posted in accordance with the regula-
ti ons, will be transmitted by packet, free of charge, but
'will be liable to a postage of 3d. each when sent via
Marseilles.

The postage upon both letters and newspapers must
be paid in advance.

Those postmasters whose instructions direct them to
send their letters for Plymouth by cross post, will of
course forward the letters and newspapers intended for
Australia via Plymouth, in the same manner ; but all
others should be sent to London.

THE OUTRAGE ON THE YORK AND NORTH MIDLAND
IZAILWA.U.—BEVERLEY, JAN. 31.—The man named
David Halliday, who was apprehended on suspicion of
being concerned in the death of Mrs. Duffill, who was
killed by either being thrown or driven out of a carriage
of a train on the Yord and North Midland Railway,
underwent a final examination to-day at the the
police court of this town. The facts connected with
the affair of the most extraordinary character. The
Unfortunate deceased was the wife of a licensed
'Victualler of this town, and some few days back visited
%eine friends at Hull. On preparing to return home by
the train the deceased and her friends, who accompanied
her to see her off, encountered Halliday, who, it
would seem, was about to depart by the same train. On
reaching the station he inquired of her what class she
was going in. She replied, " Second class -" and he
observed, " I'll get one too," and went into the booking
office. He came out with a second-class ticket. He
had also a third-class (return) ticket in his hand, which
he tore up. She (deceased) got into a vacant compart-
ment, there being no one in it but herself. Suddenly,
how-ever, Halliday joined her, when she remarked to
our, of her friends, " There is no one in the carriage
bTlb Halliday and myself, and I don't like to go." Hal-
):lday observed—" You are all right with me ;" and,
after some few other words, the train went on with the
two so seated. Just after it had re-started from an in-
termediate station, the porter of the train saw a woman
pit her hand out of a carriage and call out, "A thief,
thief;ti " and he saw a hand attempting to open the
Q°door. He called out, Keep in, keep in ;" but the
door almost immediately afterwards opened sideways,
and a female was thrown or jumped out. See was found
lying on one side of the siding metals, her head bleed-
ing, and in an insensible condition. She was removed
t the station, and then to her husband's residence liere
where, after some day's suffering, she died. On the
train reaching the next station, Beverley, the compart-
lrie,it was found empty, Halliday had contrived to
egcape, and it transpired that he had succeeded in leav-
i-og the carriage on the train commencing to slacken its
speed. His arrest, however, was quickly effected. Dr.
'-andwith, who attended the deceased, spoke of the in-
j. L.iry which she sustained by leaving the carriage, and
tne cause of death. Several circumstances were ad-
frrun which it would appear that the unfortunate
mail in all probability imagined that the train had not
"tirely left the platform of the station, and that there
was a chance of escaping front the carriage, when
hi e
r P.ttempting it, she fell on to the line, and sustained
fatal injury. The magistrates determined upon
P ending the prisoner for trial at the next assizes at
York. upon the charge of manslaughter, and the coro-
ner's jury decided in a simile way.

PLYMOUTH, FEB. 1.
The Avon steam-vessel sailed on Monday with seamen
for ships fitting at Portsmouth.
The Barracouta, 6, steam-sloop, Commander G.
Parker, sailed on Saturday for Sheerness.
The shipwrights of the. Plymouth dockyard number
between 800 and 900. Of these about 650 assembled
last evening in the Temperance-hall, and resolved to
memorialise the Admiralty to have their wages increased
to the rate now paid at the private yards. Their peti-
tion is to be submitted to Commodore Supeiintendent
Captain M. Seymour, and to the master shipwright,
Mr. Edge, after which it is to be placed in the hands of
Mr. Tufnell and Sir G. Berkeley, the members for the
borough, who will be requested to sustain the applica-
tion before the Lords of the Admiralty. Failing success
here, the men propose to lay their memorial before Par-
liament. The meeting was well conducted and orderly,
and a committee was appointed for the encouragement
of emigration and the protection of the interests of the
shipwrights.

SHEERNESS, JAN. 31.

The Espiegle, 12-gun sloop, has this day been taken
into the fitting-basin, to be fitted immediately for com-
mission.

The Hawke, 72 guns, has this day been put out of the
fitting-basin, and towed to her harbour moorings by the
steam-tug vessels African and Cuckoo.

The Barracouta, 6, paddle wheel steam-sloop, Com-
mander George Parker, arrived here at two p.m., this
day, from Portsmouth. She has proceeded to Saltpan-
reach, to take in coal from the coal depot Fortitude.
The Agamemnon, 91, Captain Sir Thomas Maitland,
has this day sent topgallant-masts on end, and bent sails.
In consequence of the continued rains and bad weather,
during the latter fitment of this ship, several of her ship's
company, including Lieutenant Thomas J. Young, have
been sent sick to Melville Hospital. She is now about
60 A.B.'s short of her full complement of seamen. She
will proceed on her trial trip as far as the' Mouse, and
return to the Nore on Wednesday next. She is now all
ataunt, and looks a complete ship-of-war in every re-

Mr. Broughton—What more have you to say ?
Witness—We heard cries of a woman, and heard a
splashing in the water, but could see nothing. Mr.
Wolfe and I went back, and after the person whom we
believed to be the prisoner had unceremoniously made
off, and we at length met with him, we dragged out the
body of a female, which we had taken to the Regalia,
but all efforts to restore animation were of no avail ; in
fact she was pronounced to be dead at the period when
she was removed from the bank to the house.
Mr. Robert Wolfe, landlord of the Regalia, said—l
met a man, whom I believe to be the prisoner, in the
avenue outside of my house, and he told me that he be-
lieved a woman had thrown herself into the water. He
said, "Let us go and see if we can't help her." I and
the man, whom I have no doubt is the prisoner, together
with Mr. Wilson, went do wn to the canal ; on reaching
which I heard a gurgling noise, and said—it was a dark
night, so that I could not see any object—" Can you
float, can you speak ?" I received no answer, and asked
Mr. Wilson to, get a light and rope. He did so, and by
the aid of the rope the deceased was dragged out of the
water. The man, believed to be the prisoner, had in
the meantime effected his escape.
Bow, 393 S, deposed that on the same day, in conse-
quence of information which he had received, he sought
for and at length took iuto custody, the prisoner, at his
lodgings, in Ecclestone-building, adjacent to the Mary-
lebone police-court.
Mr. Broughton—What passed on that occasion!
Witness—l told him I was, a police-officer, and that I
believed he was in the company of a young woman
named Leach on the previous night ; when he said he
was, and that he left her at the house of a friend in

dropped
his head and said no more until within about 200 yards
of the station-house, when he alleged that he could soon
clear himself. He was married last Sunday week.
Some more evidence against the prisoner was gone
into, and he was remanded till Wednesday next. In the
mean time an inquest will be held upon the body.

• THAMES.—A Yorkshire woman, named Harriet
Welch, about thirty years of age, came before Mr. Yard-
ley, to aftliate a child on Thomas Welch, her own
nephew, who is the mate of a schooner called the Rover,
now lying at Harrison's Wharf, and which has been for
some time trading between Selby and London.
The magistrate hesitated about granting a summons,
but the law, however, gave him no alternative, and he
granted the summons, which wa
officer of the served o the efecourt,
ndant
by Matthew M'Cundy, 93 H, an
who now stated that Thomas Welc was not in att
heenad-
d-
ance, and that when he gave him h the summons
mitted he was the father of the child, of which his
father's own sister was the mother.
The complainant stated that she was now
kernlivig iild
n
John-street, St. George-in-the-East, and that ch
was born on the 24th of January, 1852. The inter-
course between her and her nephew Thomas Welch took
place in Hull, and they obcupied the same room for a
fortnight.
Mr. Yardley said he had heard quite enough of this
most disgusting case. The conduct of both parties was
diabolical. The corroborative evidence given by the
officer was quite sufficient, without calling any wit-
nesses, and he should order the defendant to pay 2s. 6d.
per week for the future maintenance of his illegitimate
offspring, and 4s. costs.

TRA.-Prices for low to good common congou remains
at 10d to 101-d per lb., yet purchases are small, and
larger parcels are on offer. Other sorts have been in
good demand, but there being a plentiful supply, prices
are prevented from improving--ruling for rather blackish
leaf to blackish leaf at lOid to ls, strong to pekoe fla-
vour is id to is Bd, and superior is 9d to 2s 2d per lb.
In consequence of some reduction having been accepted

there was no public sales.
CocoA.-At present no advance has taken place for
West India, although the supply at market is small, and
a fair business has been concluded. Prices for Trinidad
grey rule at 31a to 345, low to middling red 34s 6d to
38s, good to fine 38s 6d to 435, Grenada 30s to 375.

rum has been dealt in with reluctance, and rates are
easier, ruling at is lld to is ii2d per gallon proof; the
quantity on offer rather exceeds that of the previous
week. In East India sales are small, and previous

accepted proof. Demerara is not cheaper-there are

to 4s 6d, fine 34 to 36 over 3s 6d to 3s 10d, good mid
to good 3s to 3s sd, and low to mid 30 to 34 over
2s 8d to 2s 11d. Havannah is wanted at is 91d to
is 10d proof, and supply is scanty. Stock of all sorts of
rum is 40 0 puns., &c. less than last year, and prices
Are 6d to 8d per gallon higher. For brandy orders have
much increased, and prices are not maintained, although
there is no increase of supply. Cognac best brands of

cluded in Russian on the spot since last Tuesday, and

for fine yellow candle. For delivery little has been done,
and there are sellers at 44s 3d to 44s 6d for last three
months of the year. Home melted is cheaper, and 45s
to 45s 6d is the value cash, with not much business
doing. Other sorts of tallow continue to be freely offered
for sale, and. prices are on the decline.
OILS.-In Sperm less has been done, and prices are
not maintained, 481 10s to 861 lOs being now the value,
and 86/ to 881 for headmatter. Seal is in larger supply,
and not much required. There are sellers of pale at 351
lOs to 361; straw and yellow, 331 to 341 10s ; dark, 311
lOs to 321 10s. Southern : Of 66 tuns, a part only sold
at 361 10s for double, and 351 lOs for single compass.

to 33s 6d for mid to fine. Gallipoli 68/. to 701., and

THE ANGLO, CELT NEWSPAPER.—In the Queen's Bench
yesterday, the Court gave judgment against granting a
new trial to the defendant, Mr. Wallace, proprietor of
the Anglo-Celt, against whom there had been a verdict
for a libel on the 31st Regiment. On the application
of the Attorney-General, the 18th of April was fixed for
the traverser to attend to receive sentence.
