NosE.—Ou Wednesday, at the police-court, a young man
named John Warren fusely, a seaman on board the

Monday evening last. It appeared that the complainant
was engaged along with his shipmates, in handing down
the foreyard, when the mate, fancying the work was not
done with expedition, called upon them to exert them-
selves, when an altercation ensued, in which it was al-
leged complainant drew a knife against the defendant. A
struggle took place between them on deck, acd whilst the
panics were so engaged, the prisoner forced his fingers
into the eye of the complainant and bit off a portion of

Liverpool? Couricr.
BRAZIL AND THE UNITED STATES.—We are cree
iTibly informed that Mr. Todd, the newly. appointed-
Envoy from the United States to the Court of Brasil,
would positively embark at New York for Rio de Janeiro
on the 16th of last month, on board the United States
vessel Ohio. The former American Minister at Rio
(Mr. Vase). land 'Conimodore Rosseau, who were
iat-
plicated in the entertunate affray which took place last
year between some of the crew of an American frigate,
and a patrole of the Rio police, had both been recalled,
hut in a manner so little satisfactory to the Imperial
Government, that Senhor Gaspar Lisboa, its represen-
tative at Washington, has been recently, it appears by the
Rio newspapers, dismissed, not having acted with the
same .spira. in regard to the disgraceful transaction al-
luded to as the Government itself. The report circu-_
laced some time ago, that the negotiation bad been satis-
factorily terminated was, consequently, premature.
LOYAL BOTANIC SOCIETY, BEGENT.S.PARK.-The
last fl 4icultural and b aanic l show of this society was held
on Wedeos ay, and attracted a great number of visitors,
among whom were his Royal Higlieess the Duke of
Cambridge, the Archbishop of Canterbury and Mrs.
Howley, the Marquis and Marchioness of Ailesbury, the
Earl and Countess of Wilton, the Earl of Mansfield,
Lady Elizabeth Murray, the Duke and Duchess of Vic-
tory, Lord and Lady Sondes, &c. The music consisted
of selections from the best composers, and was played
with their usual spirit by the several bands present, the
Royal Horse Guards, 2d Life Guards, and Grenadier
Guards. The fruit formed a prominent feature of the
collection, and was chiefly exhibited by Mr. Tillyard,
gardener to the Duke of Buckingham; Mr. Fleming'
gardener to the Duke of Sutherland; Mr. Spencer, gar-
dener to the Marquis of Lansdowne; Mr. Ingram, of the
Royal Gardens, Frogmore; Mr. J. Barnes, gardener to
Lady Rolle; and Mr. Green, gardener to Lady Antrobus.
DEATH FROM WANT.—Yesterday Mr. Carter con-
cluded an inquiry at the King's Head, W alworth-road,
as to the death of Louisa Hutherway, aged six yet"
who, it was alleged, had died from starvation. Several
witnesses proved that the child had been placed in the
back yard from an early hour in the morning until night
without food, and when she asked the neighbnire for any
the mother would beat her for doing so. The child was
chiefly fed by persons residing on either side of the
house, whose attention was attracted to the child, 100
was constantly begging for bread, and left in the cold
and damp yard half naked and in a state of filth. The
father had formerly been a draper in the Walworth-road,
but being reduced to a state of extreme poverty, was not
able to afford his family sufficient food, and had it nut
been for the great kindness of a Mr. Ward, a gentleman
who had known the father in his prosperity, they would
have starved. The jury returned a verdict, " Tnat the
deceased died from bodily debility, arising from the
want of sufficient nurture, resulting from want of means
on the part of the parent, and nut that it was withheld
from her."
