MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of Oct. 13.)
SUGAR.—To-day importers of raw Sugar were less
disposed to realise, and refrained from submitting any
to auction. West India Muscovado was in good demand,
for scale and pan, but merchants were compelled to accept
former low rates. The purchases amount to 850 hhds
and tres, making for the week 1,157 hhds and trcs. The
fall in the value for that time is 6d per cwt.
REFINED.—To-day Refined goods met with little at-
tention, but in the value there is no variation to make
known.

MAURITIUS is little required by grocers or refiners,
and an enlarged quantity has been pressed upon the
attention of buyers; former rates are in consequence not
generally supported. Of 8,900 bags submitted to public
sale a small part only sold; the chief consisted of the
better descriptions. Mauritius is still higher i❑ value
than West India, with the exception of brown sorts.
EAST INDIA.—With strong yellow kinds of Bengal
the market has been abundantly supplied this week,
the demand having been limited; prices suffered a de-
cline of is to Is 6d per cwt, the quantity on otter like-
wise far exceeds the wants of the trade. For white and
yellow Benares a decrease is visible in the amount of
business concluded, and quotations must be considered
6d lower. There are sellers of brown upon low terms,
yet few buyers are to be met with. Of the parcels offered
at public sale, amounting to 10;400 bags, not above two-
thirds sold.

FOREIGN.—The market has been more freely supplied
this week, and on the part of merchants more desire is
manifested to realise. There has been little inclination
manifested by exporters to do business, few purchases
have been made for home trade purposes, and our
refiners working under bond are not much in
want of Sugar at present. At auction 3,713 bags, 12
cases, 8 barrels, and 514 bales of Santa Martha have
been offered, and a part only sold. The private sales
made in foreign Sugar this week are a cargo of yellow
Havannah at 19s, one of Maceo at 18s 6d, and one of
Bahia at 20s for white.

MOLASSES.—West India can be obtained upon the
low terms of 153 to 18s per cyst, still on the part of
buyers little desire was manifested to do business. Ben-
gal Treacle is held for 15s to 183 per owt ; there is not
much demand. Honey sells with more readiness.
COFFEE.—This afternoon more desire was manifested
to do business in Plantation Ceylon at the public sales,
which consisted of 2,400 bags and 14 casks, and the
whole sold at full rates, good middling 50s, middling
46s to 475, low middling 42s 6d to 44s 6.1, other sorts
34s to 40s, inferior 27s to 30s, and damaged 20s to 375.
Of Native 600 bags only iu part sold at 27s 6d to 28s
for good ordinary rather color}.
Cocoa.—Of West India there is a plentiful supply,
and on the part of the trade little desire is shown to do
business. At public sale. a small part only of 867 baags
Trinidad found buyers. For Foreign the market is in a
dull state, and prices tend downwards.
TEA.—To-day the public sales of Tea went off with-
out spirit at former rates. Gunpowder was rather
cheaper. Of 8,856 pkgs offered, 2,500 sold. On Tues-
day 12,000 pkgs will be offered at auction.
FRUIT.—The demand for Currants this week has
been good at 40s to 423 for new, and 34a to 35s for old
at public sale, 107 butts 50 crtls and 58 barrels damaged
Patras were offered, the greater part of which sold
from 38s 'to 425, the quality very good. Valentia
Raisins continue very dull at 40s: at auction 511 boxes
and 351 half-boxes damaged were sold from 375 to 393.

New Turkey Figs ex Sultan, were yesterday offered to
the trade, a portion of which sold at-10s--the price was
reduced to-day to 655, and a good deal of business done.
RICE.—To-day at auction 149 hags Bengal Rice were
sold; Bengal, good white e,t 12s, damaged 9s to I Is;
Bombay sound white at lOs to lls 6d, and damaged 8s
to lOs 6d.

SAco.—To-day at public sale 'lBO boxes of Pearl Sago
were sold at 20s 6d to 21s 6d per cwt.
SALTPETRE.—There has been little desire manifested
by exporters or home trade buyers to do business by
private treaty, and a further decline is apparent in the
value of 6d per cwt. At auction, 1,500 bags were dis-
posed of. The rates asked for British refined are 29s 6d
to 30s, still the amount of business done is of little
moment.

SPICES.—Mace met with less demand, and must be quoted
rather cheaper, as there is an enlarged supply; at auction
25 packages were sold. Browa Nutmegs are wanted
and full rates obtained, there is also a plentiful supply;
at auction 57 packages found buyers. With Black
Pepper the market has been well supplied this week, and
as only a limited demand existed prices have slightly
given way. Of the parcels offered at auction amount-
ing to 3,743 bags, and 4,410 robins not above half found
buyers. To-day at auction 77 bags of white Pepper went
at 4id to 4kd per lb.
Se'Rm.—The sales made in East India Rum have
been to a small extent only, and is 5d to is Sid is
the value of proof. For Leeward Island there is a
dull market, and prices are on the decline, they rule at
is 6d to is bid for proof. Demerara has been dealt
in with caution, and strong sorts can be obtained at
2s 3d to 2s Bd. There are few buyers of Jamaica for
home consumption, and export orders come in slowly.
The value of good and fine 30 to 38 per cent. over proof
is 3s 6d to 4s 4d, low and middling 28 to 33 over 3s to
3s sd. Brandy is unaltered in value, but there is a fair
demand. Cognac of the vintage of 1847 is 4s 10d to ss,
and ditto 1846, 3s 10d to 4s per gallon. Geneva export
kind at 2s to 2s Id per gallon. In British made Spirit
there is no variation to notice.

INDIGO.—The quarterly sale of East India has been
well attended by exporters and home• trade buyers, and
is proceeding better than was expected. To-day during
the progress of the sale 202 cheats were withdrawn; 95$
chests have passed the sale. The brisk demand which
we noticed previously for the middling shipping qualities
of Bengal has continued at an average advance of 4d on
the last sale's prices. Ordinary and low sorts were also in
better demand at from the July rates to 2d advance. Fine
shipping descriptions, however, above 4s 9d do not show
any improvement. Ordinary and low Madras is selling at
about the July sale's prices, whilst good qualities (owing
to their scarcity) average at about 6d advance. The
quantity bought in is only 34 chests. Of the quantity
which has now passed the sale (3,230 chests) 480 have
been withdrawn, and 450 bought in, leaving 2,300 sold.
COCHINEAL.—This afternoon there was more demand
for Cochineal, and the public sales of 100 bags Honduras
went at full rates ; silvers at Ss 6d to 4s sd, and black
4s 6d to 5s Id per lb.
Ou.—This afternoon the market for Cocoa Nut Oil
had a dull appearance, and at auction 86 pkgs of Ceylon
were taken in at 39s 6d ; 182 casks of Palm 31s to
328 6d per cwt.

TALiow.—This afternoon the public sales of Tallow
went off flatly, and at lower rates; 350 casks of New
South Wales sold at 3919 d to 445; 107 casks Odessa Ox
mostly taken in at 443 3d; 61 mats of Vegetable Tallow
46s to 4ss per cwt.

[ADTERTISEhiENT.]—John Kaye, Est, of Dalton
Hall, near Huddersfield, continues to receive from all
parts of the kingdom the highest testimonials to the
efficacy of the celebrated medicine known throughout
the world as Kaye's Worsdell's Vegetable Restorative
Pills. Rheumatism, of the most obstinate character,
soon yields to its searching and purifying influence.
Mr. John Everett,. gamekeeper to Sir J. Beckett, So-
merby Hall, near Gainsborough, says—" I was afflicted
with Rheumatic Gout for about five years, bad the ad-
vice of eminent physicians, and visited Buxton,
Askerne, and other watering places, but without benefit.
I tried your pills, and soon found myself better of my
complaint. I could not have supposed that so great an
alteration could have been effected in so short a space of
time." Observe that the arms of John Kaye, and a
fac-simile of his signature are on the directions for use,
wrapped round each box. Sold, price Is. lid., 2s. 9d.,
or 4s. 6d., by all respectable chemists and medicine
venders.

[AnynnTlSlDlENT.]—Holloway's Pills a Superior

sources, she commenced taking Holloway's Pills, and so
rapid has been her recovery by the use of this invaluable
medicine, that it appears quite miraculous. These Pills
are eqally efficacious in curing old coughs, recent colds,
asthmas,:sore throats and all pulmonic disorders. Sold by
all druggists, and at Professor Holloway's establishment,
244, Strand, London.
REFUSAL OF CONVICTS TO CONSORT WITS A
MURDERESS —The Lord Auckland, convict-ship, now
lying in Kingstown harbour, has on board a large numaer
of female convicts, as well as free settlers—in all amount-
ing to 263. Amongst the convicts is the wretched old
woman Conolly, convicted at the last Clonmel assizes of
murder. For this murder (that of a neighbour whose
name we now forget) two of her sons were hanged at
the previous assizes, and she and another were subse-
quently convicted, and sentenced to death, which sen-
tence was commuted to transportation for life. It was
proved upon the trial, that after their victim had been
felled by her two sons he was dragged into the house
and his throat cut, the old woman holding a basin under
the wound, in order to receive the blood of the dying
man, sod prevent its marking the floor! When brought
on board yesterday, the aged demon was regarded with
horror by the other convicts, who are divided into
messes of six; but none would consort on earth with her,
and she had to be placed in a corner by herself, and to
take her food alone. This is a favourable trait, that even
in the most abandoned of the sex the idea of cold-
blooded atrocity is fraught with horror.—Liverpool Mail.
MILITARY MOVEMENTS. A detachment of the
Ist Royals (about 150), under the command of Captain
Isaac, arrived at Aberdeen on Monday night, to replace
the 93d Highlanders, who are about to proceed to Dun-
dee, Perth, and Stirling (head-quarters)—the first de-
tachment leaves to-day, and the remainder on Friday.
During the time the 93d have been in Aberdeen the con-
duct of the officers and men has been in every way
worthy that distinguished corps, and their departure is
generally regretted.—Ediaburgh Witness.:
ROBBING A JUDGE !—The Yew York Sun, Sept. 25,

" Broke Gaol.—Albany, Sept. 25.—80 b Sutton, the no-

Harris, escaped from the city gaol this morning."

THE SEARCH AFTER SIR JOHN

FRANKLIN'S EXPEDI lON.
With reference to the great anxiety and curiosity
likely to be excited by
the reports which we have
publilied of intelligence having been obtained of
Sir John Franklin's expedition, the following letter
(which has lately been received from Dr. Sir J.
Richardson, who is prosecuting the overland search
after Franklin and his gallant companions), contain-
ing that officer's estimation of the reports alluded to,
cannot fail to be considered of the highest interest,
affording as it does the most advisable test of the value
of the report in question, and which Mr. INl‘Pherson,.
an able and experienced chief officer of the lludsoui's
Bay Company's service, significantly designates an
"Indian report :"---
" Methy Portage, July 4, 1848.
" My dear Sir,—The public letter in which this is
inclosed will inform you of Mr. Rae and myself
having joined the boat party on this portage, but
though I was desirous that the Admiralty should be
acquainted with the rumours mentioned in the ac-
companying letter from the chief officer of the Hud-
son's Bay Company's service in Mackenzie River
district, I did not think it right to mention
them in a public letter, as I place no confi-
dence in them, but merely consider that they have
originated in the queries of the traders and
the desire of the Indians to excite the curiosity of the
questioner in the hope that they may
obtain some-
thing thereby. I conclude that the supposed guns
were claps of thunder, which, though very uncommon
in October in that region, is not absolutely un-
known. Franklin was not likely to fire his great
guns for amusement, and even in distress he could
not hope to bring assistance by so doing. Neither
would he remain two seasons near the Mackenzie
without communicating with the posts of the com-
pany.
We have accomplished the greater part of this
portage rather more easily the I expected, and we
hope to leave it on the 7th ; tilt the men are -much
fatigued, and we shall go to the sea much less fresh
and fit for the voyage than would have been the case
had we had the :help of horses in making this very
laborious portage.
" I remain, my dear Sir, yours very faithfully,

" We have Indian reports from the coast that, if we
could vouch for the truth of them, would be of gene-
ral interest. _

"In the fall of 1845, a party of Peel's Ricer In-
dians, who passed that season on the coast, reported
that they heard, about the beginning of November,
an unusual noise (at that season) 'like distant thunder,'
to seaward. Another report of a similar noise being
heard in the same direction, late in October, 1846,
was made at the post on Peel's River. and from that
place Mr. Peers writes, under date 17th of December
last, I have reasor, to believe that some white men
were off the coast last summer, as a party of Indians
who came here this fall, stated that they were some
days in company with the Esquimaux, east of Mac-
kenzie River, in the summer. The latter showed the
former knives (like our scalpers), and files that they
said were given to them gratis by some white men
whom they saw in two large boats,' and who spoke
to them in a language they did not understand, &c.
" I would not mention these reports to one unac-
quainted with the character of our northern Indians,
and the very slight grounds on which they will some-
times spread a report. I am, however, in great
hopes that the object of the expedition will speedily
be attained, and that our mutual and gallant friend
will, like Sir John Ross, find himself.

THE STONE QUARRIES OF CAEN.
The principal quarries, says Mr. Godwin, F.R.S.,
who lately visited them along with Mr. C. H. Smith,
one of the Government Commission for selecting stone
for Westminster Palace, are at Alemagne, about a
mile and a half due south of Caen. There are others
at La Maladrerie, a suburb of Caen, in another direc-
tion, but of an inferior quality .We have de-
scribed two quarries as being entered by means of a
shaft, and there ars many others in the same position.
The majority, however, of the Alemagne quarries are
on the hill-amide, overhanging the river Orne, and need
no shaft. The river runs at the foot of a deep escarp-
ment, which rises 60 or 80 feet above it. At this level
there is a wide roadway, and then beyond this the hill
again rises; and it is on the face of this second es-
carpment that the quarries are opened.
These are worked to a greater extent, and from
west to east, the joints facing the cardinal points;
some of them extend more than a quarter of a mile
under ground. A few of them communicate by late-
ral passages one with another, and would shelter an
army. The glimmer of the quarrymen's lights seen
at the end of a gallery, and the sound of their chisels,
a scarcely heard " pick, pick," increase the peculiar
effect of the scene.
The ceiling bed (about 2 feet 6 inches thick) is
called the bane cloutier. It is cohesive and sound, but
cannot profitably be worked, and is never taken out.
The workable beds, six in number, are named as
follows :
The Banc pourri.—This is under the ceiling bed,
and is about 3 feet thick. It is considered a good
stone, well indurated, but as it occasionally con-
tains pebbles like those in the bane cloutier, although
not to the same extent, is not so fit for fine work as
the lower beds.
The Gros bane lies next, and could be got out 5
feet thick.
deep, and appears to be considered t
The Pierre franche, which follows,h
durable bed. Then come eisbaebstouantcrnfeoestt
The Banc de quatre pieds, and
The Pierre de trente pouces. Both of these are
good beds, and are the lowest which ought to be used
for external work. The last bed which is quarried is
termed
The Banc franc; and this being like the gros
bane, nearly five feet thick, is split into two thick-
nesses, three feet and two feet, of which the upper
(two feet thick) is called the banqueret of the bane
franc.
There seems to be no difference of opinion, amidst
the greatest differences in other respects, as to the
unfitness of the whole of the bane franc for external
work.
Of late, one of the Caen houses (Messrs. Luard
and Beedham), becoming satisfied that the bottom
bed is not fit for outside work, profess to mark with a
cross every block which comes from it, so that these
may be used in parts not exposed to the effects of
weather, and we are disposed, after inquiry, to believe
their profession. If builders, to save labour or through
carelessness, will, nevertheless, use the " bad" bed
externally, the culpability of course rests with them,
and the reputation of the stone is risked in spite of
any precaution which may be used to prevent it.
We do not find that the other merchants profess to
distinguish the blocks of the bottom bed from those of
the upper. One of the principal of them, who, al-
though he would not admit that the franc bane gave
the worst stone, still called it in conversation the
bad" bed, said, "If I distinguish this, I shall have
to keep it back, and what can Ido with it ? When
dry, the stone looks all alike, and I defy any person
then to tell one• bed from another." This is true
enough; but which bed will last the longer, and what is
the wise course for those to adopt who are really inte-
rested in maintaining a good reputation for the stone,
are quite another question.—Budder.

pute about facts. There may be some as to their appli-
cation to the law of the case, but none whatever as
garded their existence. The prisoner stood indicted for
the crime of high treason ; the iudictment contained six
counts, but one of them, the 6th, by the admission of the
Crown, was removed from their consideration, and c. r-
tainly that had greatly simplified the case. It has been
contended on behalf of the Crown that the prisoner was
guilty of high treason, and of levying war against her
Majesty within this realm, and that he (lid so within
the intent and meaning of the statute of Edward the
Third. They insist that all thelaii&prhich had taken
place in the week in July, which had been so much the
subject of their consideration, amount to a levying of
war, and if it amounted to that, the prisoner was pre-
sent taking a part, that ho was guilty of levying of war,
and therefore ought to be convicted of high treason. It
WAS a most important fact to tell them what the levying
of war was. It rested on the highest authority—on a
train of undisputed decisions—and if the jury were of
opinion there was an insurrection with force—that that
was got up for the purpose of accomplishing some gene-
ral object, that amounted to high treason, but if, on the
other hand, they were of opinion there was no such
general object exclusively in view, but a particular
object, it would not ; but it may not be the less high
treason if the general object co-existed with the particu-
lar object then immediately in view. The authority
before cited was so clear, and as it might be of assistance
to them in deciding the case, he would read the very
words for them in preference to his own version. The
Learned Judge then quotf d the words of Judge Foster,
so often referred to during these trials—that insur-
rections and risings, however ill conducted or arranged,
having for their object a change of a public or general
nature, were deemed guilty of high treason—and pro-
ceeded :—On the part of the Crown it was insisted that
those occurrences which took place during the week, and
on the days intervening between Monday the 24th, and
Saturday the 29th, amounted to such a levying of war,
and it was for rational, intelligent men, looking at it in
the view just given, to say if such were the case. It is
further insisted ou the part of the Crown, that ono and
all of the facts proved went to establish gthat that part
of the country was in a state of insurrection, not for re
particular obj-ct, but a general -object, and that the par-
ticular object was put forward of securing the person of
Mr. O'Brien—whose name was brought so often under
their consideration—it was not the less high treason
because it was accompanied by a particular object. If
the jury came to the conclusion that it was for a private amid
particular object, that it was exclusively for the protection
of Mr. O'Brien; that these parties were marshalled and )
arrayed, collected and drilled for the purpose; if that be 1
their opinion, of course it did not amount to the crime
of high treason; but he repeated over again, if that were
done for the furtherance of a general object, it was not
necessary the original design should be followed out; or
whether it occurred within the week or not, it was
clearly an actual levying of war for a general purpose;
and it the prisoner participated in it, they should find
him guilty of high treason. An attempt was made by
the able advocate for the prisoner to impress on them
the impression that even it the character of the crime
were high treason, that his joining them did not impli-
cate him, nor was he responsible for acts which took
place before he did so. That was a mistake. He was
as responsible for acts done previously as while he was
with them and subsequently. And it would be for them
to decide the character and nature of these transactions;
whether they amounted to a levying of war against the
Queen within the realm. He (the Learned Judge)
should then read his notes for them; he had taken them
fully, and believed they were accurate; and in summing
up, he should take the usual course, of accompanying it
ley observations to which they would pay no more atten-
tion than those addressed to them by counsel for the pri-
soner, and on behalf of the Crown. They were at perfect
liberty to reject them. It was their liberty, indeed it was
their duty; for they carried no weight with them be-
yond what they thought proper to attach to them. It
was usual for those who were habituated to courts of
justice, in cases of this. kind to offer some remarks on
the evidence; and he trusted in God that those who pre-
sided there would not be suspected of leaning one way
or another; that they would be found holding the scales
equally between the Crown and the- accused; and the
observations he was about to make would be placed be-
fore them in a calm, dispassionate manner, not. wishing w
they should carry one jot of authority beyond hat the
jury thought they were entitled. They would, he had
no doubt, approach the consideration of the subject
calmly and dispassionately—as calm, rational, men.
They would look at the transaction as rational men—
and if they saw any ground for doubt, to give the pri-
soner the benefit of it; but if, on the other hand, the
case, as had been presented before them, convinced
them that war was levied—that the prisoner was pre-
sent, and actually participating in it, during the last
three days—it would be their duty to find him guilty
If they came to the conclusion that the prisoner was
there co-operating for a limited, and not a general
purpose, that he was there only for the protection of
Mr. O'BrienL-in that case he was bound to tell
them that they should acquit him. Ho should then
read his notes ; and if they should be accompanied by
any observations from him they should be very few, as
the case had been so ably and powerfully argued on the
one side and on the other. The issue resolved itself into
a short question. As to tho facts, there was but little,
if any, controversy about them; they were open, palpable,
unmistakeable, and he should, therefore, say that the
counsel for the prisoner wisely and prudently did not
raise any question as to the existence of those facts ;
they rather admitted them, but asserted on behalf' of the
prisoner that no actual insurrection took place at the
time. But he felt bound to tell the jury that in his
opinion a general purpose was contemplated ; that there
was an object beyond the particular one so often referred
to; and if they believed the evidence that had been given
in reference to Bellingarry, to Killenaule, and Mullinae
hone, and were not of opinion that the object in those
places was a particular one, but that it was an actual
levying of war, then in that case he was bound to say
they would be compelled to find the prisoner guilty, if
they credited the evidenee that was laid before them.
Having read the evidence connected with the occarrenees
at Ballingarry and the Widow Cormack's, the Learned
Judge proceeded to observe thlat the acts alleged
to have have been committed by Mr. O'Brien were
admissible as evidence against MeManus for this pur-
pose, that if the jury were satisfied he had joined
Mr. O'Brien, it would be necessary to investie
gate the nature end character of the transactions
in which Mr. O'Brien was engaged, for if they amounted
to levying war against the Sovereign for a general pur-
pow, and the prisoner joined him for the same general
purpose, he would in point of law be guilty to the fullest
extent of high treason. But if they believed that Mr.
O'Brien merely desired to protect himself, and that
M'Manus joined him only to assist in that object, and
for no other ulterior purpose, neither was Mr. O'Brien
or the prisoner guilty of high treason. Having concluded
reading the evidence, his Lordship proceeded—lt was
his bounden duty to remark that the prisoner received
an excellent general character from parties of' the highest
respectability; but the jury must be familiar with this
remark, that the character given must be applicable to
the offence for which the prisoner was on his trial. For
instance, the character he had received for-honour, in-
tegrity, and diligence, as a private individual, was
scarcely an answer to the charge preferred against him,
and evidence to prove that he was loyal, and attached to
the constitution, would have been of infinitely greater
weight and importance in his favour. The matters to
which he referred were, after all, to be decided by the
jury exclusively, and it was their duty not to place
the slighest reliance on a single observation that
bad fallen from him in the course of his charge, unless
they in their judgments and consciences considered them
worthy of their adoption. A more awfully important
trial than the present there could not be for any mortal
man who ever stood at the bar of a court of justice; but
still the jury should bear in mind that great public in-
terests were also deeply involved in it. They ought not,
however, to swerve one atom by these considerations,
either to the right or to the left; their own sound heads
and their own good hearts would, he had no doubt, dic-
tate such a verdict as they, standing as honest men—
standing indifferent between their country and the
Crown, ought to give. Indeed, he had no doubt what-
ever but that a verdict would be returned in the case sa-
tisfactory to their own consciences, and at the same time
doing justice to the prisoner and the country.
The jury retired about two o'clock.
Mr. BUTT complained that, in his Lordship's charge
to the jury he did not leave the question of a general
intent on the part of. the prisoners perfectly clear to
their minds. Indeed, it was by an effort of his own
mind, and from his habits as a lawyer, that he was able
to discover that view of the case had been put at all.
Chief Justice BLACSBURNE replied, that after listening
attentively to the charge of his learned brother, he was
of opinion the question of intent was clearly left to them.
Mr. BUTT contended that he was entitled as of right
to have the jury recalled and the question put to them
in a clearer light. Lord Mansfield, in the case of the
Gordon riots, left the question of intention to the jury—
that being an essential ingredient in the case—where a
great deal of evidence affecting the prisoner was the acts
of others.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.
Copy of a letter from Mr. J. J. Wilson, Chemist, Monk Bar,

York,

•• ,tr. Thvbrit.

le 14th June. 154 f.

4‘ BM-1-laving suffered most dreadflilly fbr the feet six years from
repeated attacks of the gout, and receiving no benefit from the best
medical advice I could obtain, I was induced about six weeks ago to
try a box of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Fills. When I commenced
taking them, which was in the afternoon, my feet and elbows were
very much swollen and inflamed : I was suffering the most intense
agony. I had that night sound and refreshing sleep, and awoke in
the morning comparatively free from pain; and before I had finished
the box, I never was better in my life: they have not only entirely
removed the gout, but have also very much improved my general
health I have since recommended them to four individuals, who
have suffered much from gout and rheumatism ; and tl•ey all speak
highly of the benefit they have received from them. If you think
my case worthy of insertion among the many cures effected by your
wonderful medicine, Teti are at perfect liberty to publish it.
" I am, Sir, yours respectfully,
"J. J. WILSON."
The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this
valuable medicine which affords to the aicted ith gout, rheuma-
tism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogousffl compwlaints, speedy and
certain relief.
They require neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and
Invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain, or other
vital part.
Sold by Thermals Pront, 229, Strand, London ; and by his appoint-
ment by all respectable Medicine Vendors throughout the United
Kingdom. Price 2s. 9d. per box.

onm the Saturday morning on
until his arrival at Ballingarry,
which it is unnecessary to repeat, and went on to say
that the jury would recollect that Mr. O'Donohoe was
not a native of their county. that earning a respectable
livelihood in. Dublin; where he resided, he was found in
company at. Ballingarry, and elsewhere, with Mr.
O'Brien and others; under circumstances which he shout
show were of a treasonable character. There being no
evidence of any declaration by the prisoner of his
motives and intentions to join the rebels, it might be
argued by his counsel that his object was not revo-
lutionary. Ile should, however, contend, that inasmuch
as he joined the ranks of the rebel army he was
equally guilty with the leaders, and must be supposed to
have the same objects in view, and to have adopted
their plans.
Prisoner—lt is right, my Lord, to say that I don't
wish to escape upon the poor miserable pretext which
the Attorney-General would put into my mouth.
The CIIIEF JUSTICE—You bad better leave your case
in the hands of your counsel.
Mr. MEAGUER said it was right to state that it was
not intended to put the defence of his client on that
ground.

O'Donohoe, who startled the Court by the tone in
which he spoke, and the energy of manner he evinced,
then became silent.

" With every good wish and high respect, I remain

The Attorney-General then detailed the facts as they
were given on the former trials, which we do not think
necessary to repeat.
VERDICT IN THE CASE OF *MANUS.

At five o'clock, and just as the Learned Gentleman
had concluded his statement, the jury in Mr. M‘Manus's
case came into court, and amid the deepest silence
handed in their verdict to the Clerk of the Crown.
The prisoner was also placed at the bar. His mind ap-
peared to have been made up as to what the result
would be, yet the quiver of his lip, tie deep anxiety of
countenance, plainly showed he felt deeply and pain-
fully interested. It is a terrible thing to witness a re-
spectable, intelligent gentleman, standing in the dock
on such an occasion, to hear a decision which consigns
him to an ignominious scaffold—or a dreadful exile—
or restores him to his home end family. An awful
pause followed the calling over the names of the jurors,
—when the

Clerk of the Crown said, "How say you, Gentlemen,
is the prisoner guilty, or not guilty?"
Foreman—GUlLTY.
The Clerk of the Urown then read aloud the follow-
ing recommendation:—" We strongly recommend the
prisoner to the merciful consideration of the Crown.—
Samuel Barton, Foreman."

It may be remarked that " boat " and " ship " are
expressed by one and the_ same word in the Esqui-
manY language_

Mr. M'Manus next shook hands with his Counsel,
and was removed from the bar, when O'Donohoe's trial
was proceeded v, ith. •
Police-constable Rcehe examined—He was in Kille-
naule on the 25th of July last, when he saw the pri-
soner at the bar and three others coming into the town
on a car. Ho heard Mr. O'Brien was on it ; but he saw
the prisoner at the bar there. They remained about
three-quarters of an hour in the town, and the❑ went
off in the direction of the collieries and towards Mulli-
nahone.

LOVE is the leading feelinr_r human
breast. Mere exalted than mere pare, a .rs high above
every other impulse of nature, and is not enlf than avarice, a
is exempt from
in but more engrossing even than ambition. Nu
its intuence, er can avoid its sway; and business, pleasure, philo-
sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under Bee enthralling
power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity
with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage.
When union does not take place, however, this passion, this
fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly
poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright-
ened, all things upon earth. How is It that men, of most un-
changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life-
time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con-
tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind?
It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early
habits, er• the results of secret disease, knows himself to be
disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has keen
instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important
ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be
beyond measure deplorable i Loving and beloved, he entails the
most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon
himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possossian of
natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of
unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the
attention of all. These desirous of investigating it will find the
fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work erthled

THE GREAT SEA SERPENT.

The following very interesting report respecting
the appearance of the extraordinary animal seen by
some of the officers and crew of her Majesty's ship
Daedalus, has been forwarded to the Admiralty by
Captain M'Quhue

THE CLAN MUNIIO.—A correspondent sends us
the following notice:—"The Clan Munro is of Irish
origin. In the eleventh century, Donald, son of Oran,
Prince of Fermanagh, came to Scotland, and for services
rendered in driving the Dynes, with great slaughter, out
of the province of Moray, the King invested him with
the barony of Easter Dingwall—from the Peffrey to the
Water of Allness. Having been born on the banks of
the Roe,' in the county of Derry, he was styled the
Man of R)e,' subsequently changed to Man-de-ro—
Monro, or Munro, and the district bears his name to this
day, viz., Ferrindonnuil, or Donald's Land. With the
the late chief and baronet, Sir Ilugh, terminated the
male line of Colonel Robert of Obsdale, afterwards Sir
Robert Munro of Fowlis, the family honours having de-
scended to the present baronet, Sir Charle-s, as the lineal
male descendant of Sir Robert's brother, Lieutenant-
General Sir George Munro, K. 8., who married the lion.
Christian Hamilton, eldest daughtc r to the first Viscount
Boyne. Sir George entered the Swedish service, and
commanded a division of Gustavus Adolphus's army at
the battle of Lutzen. On the breaking out of the civil
war, he returned to England, and served in the royal
army—was second in command of the royal army in
Ireland, under the Marquis of Ormond, in 16n—com-
manded a division of the Scotch army under General
Leslie—joined Charles the Second in Holland after the
battle of Worcester; and, on the Restoration, was made
Commander-in-Chief in Scotland, for his eminent ser-
vices to the royal cause. Sir George died at his seat of .
Culratn, Ross-shire."—lnverness Courier.

Head-constable Wiggins next deposed to the visit paid
to the "police barrack in Mullinahone by Mr. O'Brien,
when he demanded their arms, and identified O'Donohoe
as being with him.

OXFORD, OCT. 13.—Dean Ireland's Professor of the
Exegesis of Holy Scripture proposes during this term to
read some of St. Paul's Epistles, and to continue his lec-
tures on the Interpretation of the Bible, in the Claren-
don, at one o'clock, on Tuesday the 24th instant. These

and Monday, Dec. 18.
The Bishop of Oxford delivered his Primary Visitation
Charge to -a numerous body of the clergy in St. Mary's
yesterday. There was full cathedral service, and the
sermon was preached by the Rev. Robert Hussey, Regius
Professor of Ecclesiastical History. To-day his
ship consecrated a new burial-ground for the parish of
Holy wel I.
CAMBRIDGE, OCT. 13.—At the Congregation to-mor-
rill be given to the. Senate of the
row (Saturday) notice
vacancy of the office of Public Orator by the resignation
of Mr. Crick, of St. John's College; and a day will be
appointed for the election of a person to fill the said
office.

The Court refused to call the jury.
TRIAL OF MR. O'DONOHOE.

Heart:constable Williams deposed to the same fact,
and identified Mr. O'Dcnohoe as being at the police
barrack. He, however, felt bound to state, that 'the
prisoner at the bar took no part whatever in the conver-
sation, which took place between himself and Mr.
O'Brien. He was, however, in the house, but might not
have heard the words that passed. After O'Brien went
away ho saw the prisoner in the street; ho should say
it was about half an hour after. lie did not, however,
salute him, or smile at him; he appeared to be comIel;
from mass, and was unarmed.

Itobert Mahoney, a police-constable, was about to
prove the delivery of some speeches at Callan by Mr.
o'l3rion, when

Mr. BUTT submitted it was rot admissible evidence
as against the prisoner, and the Cotrrt held that at
that stage of the proceedings it was not advisable to
do so.

The Court then adjourned at seven o'c:ock.

PARDON FJR, SMITH OTRIEN.—A meeting was
held last evening at the Circus Royal, Circus-street, for
the purpose of adopting a petition to the Queen, praying
for a mitigation of sentence in the case of Smith
O'Brien and also the English Chartist prisoners. The
chair was taken by 1)r. Webb, who expressed his hope
that as the Government was strong, so it would be mer-
ciful ; and Ministers might depend upon it no better
means could be found of conciliating the Chartists than
1 a show of leniency to the unfortunate men who were at
present in their power. He had been chairman of the
first meeting in favour of Frost, Williams, and Jones,
and he hoped he should he equally successful in the ob-
ject of the present meeting. There was no danger of
iusurrection here. The people bad too much sense,
seeing, as they did, that the people of Paris were much
worse off after all the blood that had been sh than
they had been before. Government, however, might
sc
take a lesion from the. French Republicans in the ode-
ration with which they had treated their political oppo-
nents. One or two speakers then addressed the meet-
ing, a petition for pardon was adopted, and the meeting
separated.
EAST INDIA MAA—A statement has recently
been printed of the total cost of ifansmitting the mails
and dispatches between Bombay and Suez, by the East
India Company, and towards which the sum of 5-0,000/.
per annum is granted out of the revenue of the United
Kingdom, &c., during the years 1845. 1846, and 1847.
The total net charge to the Company 13r the year 1844-
45, for transmitting the mails between M,mbay and Suez
was 43,1471. ; for the year 1845-46, the net amount was
50,9071. ; and for the year 1846 47 it was 55,1311. The
charges for this last year are thus made up :-17,125/.
for the wages and allowances of officers, crews, engi-
-1 nears, &c., of steam-vessels ; 42.111/. for victualling,
coals, and other stores ; 58,536/. for calculated charge of
r 10 per cent. for repairs, 5 per cent. for depreciation, 6
per cent. for sea risk, 4 per cent. for interest per annum
in cost of vessels employed ; 15,700/. for expenses de-
frayed in Egypt, including salaries of agents in Egypt
and Malta. These items make a total charge of 133,4721.
from which is to be deducted 25,718/, for net amount of
passage money received by the East India Company,
2,6231. for amount of freight, and 50,000/. granted out
of the revenue of the United Kingdom. The cost of
transmitting the bi-monthly mails between Bombay and,
Aden for the year 1845-46, was 24,253/.; and for the
year 1846-47, it was 33,6301. There are ten &tease-
vessels employed in this service, varying in size from
the Atalanta of 616 tons and 210 horse-power, to the
Mooznffer of 1,440 tons and 500 horse power.
JESUS COLLEGE CHAPEL.—This chapel has under-
gone a complete restoration, and the works which have
been so long in progress are now nearly completed.
When actually finished the interior of this beautiful edi-
fice will rival in variety, richne• s, and tastefulness of its
decoration, the finest chapels in the university. In the
course of the repairs, a number of beautiful arches have
been revealed, which the barbarous and almost sacrili-
gious stupidity of former ages had carefully concealed
behind clumsy masses of brick work and plaster. All
this patchwork has been removed, and the exquisite
beauty of the original fabric is now not only developed,
but even improved and expanded. The window at the
east end of the chapel is altogether new—new is material,
but not new in design; for with its beautiful cloisters of
slender columns, dividing it into three lights, it is formed
exactly on the model of the architect's original plan.
When this and the other windows are titled with
stained glass, and when the square panels of the lofty
) roof are decorated with beeuti ul paintings (a rose and
I crown), we venture to affirm that the interior of Jesus'
Chapel will be unique and almost unrivalled. Unfortu-
nately a portion of the nave, adjoining the reaster'e
lodge, was converted at some former ee riod iota fuels nt'a
rooms—a fact which was recently made mini act in the
course of s,. me repairs, when, us in the body of the cha-
pel, arches acre discovered Cat:, had been pla tcrcd over.
This misfortune it is now impossible to i etrievc. Tho
chapel cannot be extended toe ards the wet t to its former
limits; bat towards the cast it has been enlarged; end a
new uisle has been erected exactly on the original foun-
dation of that part of the building. A splendid organ is
I now in course of erection. We repeat that, when finished,
I the interior of the chapel will be exceedingly beautiful.

THE COGGESVALL AND lIALSTEAD ROBBERIES.—
Pulice-corlstable Clay den, who has been for some days
engaged in tracing evidence respecting robberies in and
around Coggeshall, obtained from the magistrate a war-
rant for the apprehension of Anthony Patten, sen., a
farmer at Chappel, which he executed, and conveyed his
prisoner before the justices. Patten was remanded for
further examination on the charge of stealing 18 sacks of
, barley, 9 sacks of beans, and 18 bushels of tares, the
I property of C. Skingley, Esq., of Coggeshall. The
Halstead burglars were yesterday committed for trial
for robbery and sacrilege.

Dispatches were sent off yesterday
.evening from
the Colonial-office for the Governor of Canada, and
also for the Governors of the other North. American
Colonies.

Patrick O'Donohoe was then placed at the bar, and,
as in the case of Mr. O'Brien, when called on to plead,
declined to do so until he put in a plea respecting the
panel and the point raised as to his right to have fur-
nished him the list of witnesses. Whin that was done,
he pleild, d not guilty in a clear, fii w tone, and the fol-
lowing jury was then sworn:—W. C. Bennett, William
Murphy Msurice Studdart, George Birch, Charles W.
Massey, William Price, Ralph S. Smith, Charles Min-
chin, Robat Young, Alexander Carew, George Roo, and
George Siuithwick,
On the application ot Mr. F. Meagher, Mr. Butt was
assigned us s,uior Conas,l of the prisoner. Mr. O'llono-
hoe, like those accused with him, seems to have made
up his mind that he will be convicted, for, on his arraign-
ment, ho displayed no anxiety whatever, but, on the
contrary, evinced a carelessness which almost amounted
to levity. He is a man of very unprepossessing appear-
ance, with a countenance dark and determined, -dis-
playing great firmness of purpose, and an almost utter
recklessness of manner, which fitted him admirably for
being an agent in a rebellion. lie is not only
