HAMBURG AND FLANDERS M A.IL. I
BRUSSELS, Auc. 21 and 22.—The Courrier Edge of i
the two dates is chiefly occupied with the proceeding in
the Court of Assizes of the province or Brabant, in the
affair of Messrs. de Redder and B ;rquet, engineers and 1
undertakers of public works, accused of peculation and
corruption.
The Courtier Beige has ten closely printed columrs.
giving an account of the first two days (Thursday ar.4
Friday) proceedings, which were. not c( ncluded.
BRUSSELS, Ana. 20.—Last night about ten o clock,
M. London, s rieh proprietor, residing in the causeway
of Molenbeck, St. Jean, bad just got home from a club,
when hearing a noise in the cellar, he to( k a pistol and
went down to discover the cause. At the. moment of
entering the cellar he received a wound from some fire-
arm in the breast. He had just strength enough left to
get up stairs, but on reaching his bedroom, tell down
and expired immediately after. On hearing the shot
fired, Mrs. Londoz rose, and saw a person escaping
through the garden.
BRUSSELS, AUG. 22.—1 t appears that M. Londoz,
when he heard the noise in the cellar, took two pistols,
one loaded, the other not, and when he got to the last
step he was roughly attacked by a vigorous arm, and a
desperate struggle ensued, as is evident from the clothes
of the victim awl various traces. The perpetrator pro-
bably wrested the pistol from M. Londez, Which was dis-
charged during the struggle, whether accidentally or
not is at present uncertain. M. Loral; it seems, on
hearing the noise in the cellar, went up stairs to get his
pistols, and lo inform his wife. The report of the pistol
awakened the servants and the neighbours. The ser-
vants immediately hastened down stairs and found their
unfortunate master lying on the ground, unable to say
any more than the word " wounded." They car-
ried him to the drawing-room and laid him on a sofa.
The physician and a priest, who had been instantly
sent for, arrived too late to see him alive. Only
one pistol (that which had been discharged) was
near the victim, so that it may be believed that the as-
sassin, not knowing that the second pistol was unloaded,
took it to defend himself, if necessary, in his flight. It
is singular that the event was scarcely known when it
was generally reported in the neighbourhood that Mr.
Londoz had committed suicide, which every circumstance
proves to have been impossible. Of course we have only
conjecture on this event; the murderer has not been dis-
covered, and every suspicion respecting the author of the
crime must be suppressed. M. Londoz was a vigorous
man, of lofty stature, in the prime of life. He leaves a
widow and four young children. His fortune is said to
have been 40 000 francs per annum.
The Countess of Napua, widow of the last King of
Holland, William 1., arrived at Brussels to-day at four
o'clock.
ST. PETERSBURGU, AUG. 13.—Our newspapers pub-
lish the following Imperial Ukase to the Directing
Senate on the 18th of July :—"lt appears that the ill-
disposed persons who, in the month of February last.
made attempts in the republic of Cracow, in Posen, and
in Galicia, to overturn the existing Government, had
accomplices in the Governments of Wilna, Kanen, and
Grodnos. We have to extend to the said Governments
the measures already prescribed for the maintenance of
the public security in the kingdom of Poland, and the
government of Podolia and Wolhynia, and accordingly,
order the Governments of Wilna, Kauen, and Giodnt s,
as in a state of war, and place them under the command
of the Prince of Warsaw, Prince Paskewitsch Erivanski,
Field-Marshal and Commander-in-Chief."
KIEL, Auc. 15.—(From the Weser Gazette.)—We
believe that we may positively state that the Emperor of
Russia, on receiving a letter from the Grand Duke of
Holstein, respecting the succession of Sleswick-Hol-
stein, said he should not at present interfere in any
manner in this matter. As the several claims on H.. -
stein are expressly reserved to the Emperor by the
letters patent—(" It appears there are certain circum-
stances which hinder us from speaking with the same
preci-ion of the hereditary right to Holstein")—this is
very intelligible, and the Emperor may quietly wait to
learn what off-rs may be made to him on the part of
Denmark to consent to " recognise the integrity of the
Danish state in its t,tality." In his position it is cer-
tainly more correct to t the affair takes its course. On
the other hand, it becomes more and more probable that
England, and doubtless France also (especially to coun-
teract the pretensions of Russia), have declared fur tilt-
maintenance of the union of dominions now governed
by Christian VII.
The national policy of Germany has of course no ad-
vocates among foreign nations, and can be promoted
only by the powers of the German confederation. All
will depend upon the two great German powers actin,
as their duty and interest prescribe.
BRESLAW, AUG. 15.—A convention is said to have
been concluded between Austria and Prussia, by which
both parties are to exercise the strictest vigilance to pre
serve the rights of Germany from being in the slightest
degree violated or infringed. The visit of his
Majesty the King of Prussia to Konigswarth,
though short, was decisive, and gave the final turn
to this affair. The approximation of Austria to
Prussia is more cordial than ever. Independently
of less important indications, there are two facts which
indisputably lead to this conclusion. The daily increas-
ing coolness in the relations with Russia, and the dif•
ferences between Austria and the Papal See. At all
events this approximation is decisive in the affairs of the
Prussian constitution. So much is certain, that at the
beginning of the year 1847, all the deputies to the pro-
vincial estates of' Prussia will meet at Berlin, and that
the official notices on the subject will appear in the
course of this month or the next.

A good deal of correspondence between the parties was
read, and in one of these letters, after the defendant bad re-
pudiated the shares, he says, " I am advised you have no
claim against me, either by the rules of our society or by the
law of the land. If you think otherwi- e, you will take your
own course; but you have a clear case against my principal,
Mr. Dixon, and you may summon me as a witness."
Ft), the defence it was contended that the shares were not
tendered within a reasonable time, and a number of witnesses
were called in support of this view of the case.
His LORDSHIP, in summing up, said he had never sat with
so little satisfaction to himself to investigate the facts of a
case as he had done in some of the cases which had been
tried during the present assizes. The jury had been occupied
a long time in the investigation of some of these cases, but
if the disclosures which had been made would have the effect
of bringing people to their senses, the time of the Court
would not have been uselessly employed. His Lordship
commented in strong terms on the letter of the defendant
respecting Mr. Dixon, and observed that it might be very
distressing to the jury to investigate such matters as these,
but he hoped the public would be the gainers.
The jury, after being about an hour in consultation, found
that the shares were not ready to be delivered within a rea-
sonable time.—Verdict for the defendant.
August 22.
(Before Mr. Justice WICHITMAN.)
Elizabeth Davison was indicted for having unlawfully ex-
posed her infent child with intent to cause its death.
Mr. Hutton conducted the prosecution. Mr. Sergeant
Wilkins, on the prisoner stating that she was unable to em-
ploy counsel, unCertook her defence, at his Lordship's request.
It appeared, from the evidence of Mr. Blain, a brick-
maker and publican at Birkenhead, that the ptieoeer had
been fur some time previous to last Easter Monday in his
employment as a servant. On the Sunday preceding Easter
Monday he observed that she seemed ill, arid on the Monday
he spoke to her, with a view to procuring medical assistance.
The prosecutor's wife was from home at the time, and there
was besides the prisoner no female in the house except the
witness's little daughter. The witness intimated to the pri-
soner his suspicion s that she was in the familyway. This she
denied. He said he would send fur a medical man, on which
she said she would go for one herself'. Witness sent a Mrs.
Kelly with her to the doctor, and she came back with some
medicine. He wished her to go to lied, but she said she
would rather go to her aunt's at Wavertree, a place a few
miles from Liverpool. Gave.ber 65., and she went away,
arc mpanied by Mrs. Kelly.
Mrs. Kelly stated that she crossed the river with the
prisoner, who seemed on her arrival in Liverpool to be in
great pain. She asked a cabman on the road where she could
get a lodging, and be named a place about ten minutes'
drive off. She got into the cab ant was driven off, having
declined rs. Kelly's offer to accompany her.
It appeared from the evidence of James M'Avoy, the car-
driver, that the prisoner had at first told him to go to one
Richard O'Brien's, in Regent-street She afterwards told
him to drive to the Wavertree-road. On getting to the
Tunnel Hotel she said she wanted to go to Sandown-lane.
On going there he got down and opened the door. She told
him to wait a mon,ent ; and lie perceived her wrapping a
alai in some flannel, and she put it under her arm. She had
a basket with her, and went away up a lane.
It appeared, on cross•examittation, that the witness had
received at first ss. from the prisoner, but stopped before he
got to the place where site fluallv left him, and refu, ed to
di ive her any further until he get Is. 6d. inure. The whole
distance was ai miles. She seemed very ill.
Elizabeth Parry state I, that on the day in question site
was going along Sandown-lane, and saw the prisoner leave
the car. She went access some waste ground, and to a gate
leading into a grass field. She got over the gate. Site bad
a basket with to r She sat down in the field, and took the
lid of the basket dr. She went on a little further and got
over a wall into a plantation. She returned shortly after
into the ante field, and ran some distance up it. Witness
went to the police-station at Wavertree, and saw 'Mrs. Har-
rison, wife of one of the constables, who accompanied her to
the place, and sbe there saw something in a little beside the
wall. Mrs. Harrison examined it and found a child. It was
lying with its head downwards among some nettles in a hole
which had ap; arently been made by dogs. There was a.
flannel thrown over it. A person of the name of Carter went
after the prisoner, and found her about a quarter of a mile off
in the village of Weavertree. He asked her to go back with
him. She 5:111i1 she had done nothing amiss. He told her
of having left the child in the hole, and to this she made no
reply. He took her into the house and placed her ley the
fire. He then heard another child cry, and found it was in
ache basket which the prisoner carried.
appeered from the evidence of Mr. Watling;, a surge n,
that he was called in to see the child immediately after itwas
tOutid. It was cold and languid, with the puke scarcely per-
ceptible. Its ler arm was Ur, ken. It Reed for a fortnight
after, anti it was during that, time baptised by the tiaee of
Thomas.

---
On Saturday last the public parks in the neighbourhood
of Manchester, which have been purchased by voluntary
subscription, and are devoted to the free and uncontrolled re-
creation and amusement of the working community in that
densely-populated district, were inaugurated and thrown
open with great ceremony and display of rejoicing. The
day having been pretty generally observed as a holiday by
the manufacturers and principal merchants of the town
and neighbourhood, vast bodies of working men and clerks
were enabled to attend, and when at eleven o'clock the
municipal authorities started from the Town-hall in a
gay procession of equipages, the multitude of pedestrians
who prepared to accompany them was almost beyond cal-
eulatiati. Various bands of music, military and amateur,
contributed to enliven the scene, and from almost every
window and balcony en the route of procession there floated
gay and variegated banners, bearing devices and inscrip-
tions appropriate to the occasion. It may here be men-
tioned that the parks have been severally named the Queen's
Park, the Peel Park, and the Phillips' Park (the latter in
honour of Mr. Mark• Phillips, one of the representatives of
the borough of Manchester). As a matter of convenience, it
was resolved to open the Peel Park first, the grounds lying
within the jurisdiction of the borough of Salford, the trustee-
ship having to be transferred to that body from the corpora-
tion of Manchester. The procession having reached the
Town-hall of Salford was joined by John Kay, Esq., the
mayor, and the members of the Council in nine carriages.
In a short time the cortege arrived at Lark-hill, the site of
the Peel Park, which is about a mile and a half from the
Manchester Exchange. The day being fine, the park
(which is thirty-two acres in extent, and laid out in
lawns, walks, and parterres, with archery-ground and
gymnasium) looked exceedingly picturesque and attrac-
tive, an effect which is not diminished by a fine view of
the river Irwell. Here, as in the other parks, everything
that can tend to promote rational recreation and manly
and athletic exercise has been furnished in the most
tasteful and convenient manner, whilst handsome and com-
modious refreshment rooms proclaim an assurance that some
more stimulating beverage may be had than that contained
in the stone basins where iron ladles, fastened to the wall,
are somewhat ostensibly displayed. It was expected that
Lord Ellesmere would have performed the ceremony Of bap-
tism for the Peel Park, but his Lordship was unavoidably
absent, and the duty devolved on the Mayor of Manchester
(W. B. Watkins, Esq.), who addressed the assemblage in
brief but appropriate terms on the gratifying spectacle before
them. He said that no fewer than 5,000 working persons
had contributed to the Park-fund, and the manner in which
they had been backed by their wealthy neighbours gave a
practical refutation to the statement, that the manufactur•
ing and mercantile classes of the kingdom were actuated
solely by a desire to accumulate wealth, without caring for
the sufferings or enjoyments of their poorer neighbours.
The worthy magistrate then formally declared a transfer of
the property to the Salford Corporation, and having chris-
tened the grounds by the name of the Peel Park, they were.
declared to be open henceforth and for ever free to the public.
The announcement was received with loud buzzes by the
multitude, amid the firing of cannon and the braying of
trumpets, which made it almost deafening. Amongst the
gentlemen surrounding the Mayor at the moment of in-
auguration. we observed Mark Phillips, Esq., M.P. •,
Entwisle, Esq., M.P. ; P. A. Slaney, Esq, late M.P. for
Shrewsbury (one of the first promoters of the park scheme);
Stephen Blair, Esq., Mayor of Bolton; John Meller, Eeq.,
Mayor of Ashton-under-Lyne; P. Marsland, Esq„ Mayor of
Stockport; and the chairman and various members of the
Parks' Committee.
A considerable porion of the multitude having dispersed
in search of amusement, the procession was enabled to retrace
its steps, and passing slowly through the thronged streets,
ultimately made its way over the Victoria-bridge, and pro-
ceeded towards the Queen's Park at Harpurhey (formerly
the Hendham-ball estate), about two miles distant to the
eastward from the Manchester Exchange, on the Rochdale
road. Here a ceremony similar to that at the Peel Park
was performed by Mr. Mark Phillip, who addressed the
multitude at considerable length on the importance of the
occasion they had met to celebrate, and uLing them to
still further exertions. This park is about the same size as
the Peel Park, and is laid out in a similar style. The name
of the Phillips' Park, which is situated at Bradford, about a
mile and a half from Manchester, was given to it by Mr.
Entwisle, M.P., who indulged in a warm eulcgiurn on Mr.
Phillips, for the manner in which he had performed his Par-
liamentary duties. The firing of cannon, and cheering and
music, having subsided,
Mr. PHILLIPS expressed his acknowledgments for the high
honour that had been done to himse'f and family by calling
the park after his name. As Mr. Entwisle had referred to
his retirement from the representat'on of Manchester, he
begged to say that he found it impossible to continue his
Pariumentary labours without injury to his health. There
was no cricket• grounq or skittle-alley, or other gymnasia,
connected with the House of Commons; and every man who
had attended to his duties found that his health must ulti-
mately give way.
The proceedings then terminated, and the procession re-
turned to Manchester at five o'clock, where an e,egant and
substantial repast awaited the invited guests at the Town-
hal!. This errerainnient was ordered for three o'clock; but
it was impossible for the authorities to expedite the business
in less time than it occupied.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE:
NORTH ERN CIRCUIT—Liverpool, Aug. 21.
CROW'; COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WIGiITMAN.)
Charles Lynn was indicted for maliciously shooting at
John Wainwright, with intent to do him some grievous
bodily harm.
Mr. Brandt conducted the prosecution; the prisoner was
defended by Mr. Sergeant Wilkins.
It appeared from the statement of the prosecutor, who is
assistant game-keeper to the Earl of Derby, that on the night
of the 15th of April last, he, in company with another man,
was drinking at a public-house in the neighbourhood of
nice
Knowsley, and about a mile from Prescot. The public-
tlsiehoEtsagfilereadn,d
aCuldtildw.enAtb;:uutt
tiraoulfs•epaisstknn e lie by
shortly after by the back door, for the purpose of ascertain-
htehaer d name
several of
ascertain-
ing the ca ,se. As soon as he got through the gate sr 'me one
tired a shot at a distance of about sixteen yards, a! d he was
immediately struck by several shots, one of which pene•
Crated his hand and the other his leg. The landlord of the
Eagle anti Child ran out immediately on hearing the shot,
and saw a man making off along the Liverpool-road. Ile
pursued the man, but the latter got over a wall into one of
Sir Thomas Birch's plantations' and escaped. On searching
the wood the next day, some footmarks were found, which
were said to cot respond with the shoes found upon the psi•
sorter when he was taken into custody. Some time after a
small gun, the stock of which was moveable, was found in
t he same plantation.
It appeared from the testimony of other witnesses, that at
an earlier part of the evening the prisoner was in company
with another man at the Rose and Crown public-house a
little distance from the Eagle and Child. He had a gun,
which was, by a crack in the stock, identified as that which
was afterwards found in the plantation. He produced it in
two parts from his pocket. He loaded it. While he was
putting the shot in his companion said, "Put some of the
ethers in, they'll tell a tale." He put in two kinds cf shot.
lie said he would shoot game in spite of any body. When
tie was leaving the house he said, "Let either Birch or
Wainwright molest us on the road, and we'll do their jsb
for them." Another witness, while on hie wsty from et
:o Huyton, saw the prisoner leaning against the wall of Sir
Thomas Birch's plantation, and asked him, what he was
doing there. He said he was looking for a hare. The wit-
ness told him that Birch. the keeper, was out, and he replied
that he did not care—he would have a hare, and do Birch
afterwards. It appeared that in a doer near which the pro-
secutor was standing when the shot was tired were found as
many as 25 shots, which had apparently formed part of the
charge.
Mr. Sergeant Mueslis addressed the jury for the defence,
and they retired to consider their verdict.
After a ccnsultation of three hours, they returned a verdict
of Guilty. To be transported for 14 years.
Chart!. Greenwood, Thomas Lawley, John Greenwood, and
Joseph Mills, were indicted for having robbed Jetties Green-
wood at at Todtnorden and Walsden, on the 17th of May.
Mr. Brandt conducted the prosecution; the pritonet s were
not ciefended by counsel.
It appeared trom the statement of the prosecutor, who is a
very old man, that he was watchman in the service of Mr.
Robertshaw, who has a mill near Todmorden. While going
the round of the premises, he beard some one kick the ceal-
house door. He went out into the road, and he there saw
tour men in white smockfrocks, and asked them who had
been knocking. They said they had not. The old man
said it could have been nobody else; on which high words
ensued, and one of the prisoners, Lawley, said, " D—n
him, smash his lantern." The men thcn attacked him.
One broke his lantern, another knocked hitn t own, and
they beat him as he lay upon the ground, until he was
nearly insensible. lie cried out "murder," anti sonic young
men who were in the neighbourhood running up, saw four men
in smockfrock, beating sonic person wit° was lying upon the
ground. The mea ran away. The old man was then fcund
to be seriously insured ; his face was much bruised and
covered with blood, and his hat was gore. Th s, however,
was found at some distance, where it was supposed it had
been taken by his assailants. The prosecutor spoke very
doubtingly as to the identity of the prisoners. It appeared,
however, that a short time before, the four persons at the
bar had been all together at the beer-house of a Mr. Green-
wood, at Clough, near Walsden, where they had a quantity
of ale, for which they did not pay. They had all white smock-.
frocks on when they left, and they went in the uirection of
the mill of Mr. Robertshaw. They left about eleven o'c:ock.
A sergeant of police, who was at Mr. Robertshaw's soon
after the attack, went to the Navigation Inn, where lie found
the prisoners. They had come in very shortly after eleven
o'clock. There was then blood on Charles Greenwood's
smockfrock. He said he had been wrestling, and he added
that they bad punched Robertshaw's coal-house door as he
passed, and he bad knocked down a man who came out. The
officer who apprehended the prisoners found blood upon Law-
ley's smockfrock, as well as on Greenwood's. Greenwood
said the blood was Tom's (Lawley's), with whom he had had
a scrimmage.
At the close of the case for the prosecution, it was intimated.
by Mr. Brandt that he did not think the evidence could sus-
tain the charge of robbery, but be submitted the parties
might be convicted of' the common assault.
His LORDSHIP thought that this was not the case, and
that to convict the prisoners of the assault there nntst be
evidence of an inchoate attempt to commit the felony, which
fails, or in which they were interrupted, before the felony is
complete. It never could be the intention of the Legislature,
where a party had comtnitted an assault, and there was on
the evidence no pretence for saying a felony bad been
intended, that the party might be charged with the felony
and convicted of the assault, by which course he would be
xposed to a very different punishment front that which
would have been inflicted on him had he been charged with
the assault alone.
His Lamson', after consulting with Mr. Justice CRESS-
WELL, ruled according to the opinion so expressed, and the
prison re were Acquitted generally.
Matthew Sherlock Hilton, aged 19, a young man of very
rest ectable appearance, and who seemed throughout the trial
to be in the greatest agony of mind, was indicted for uttering
a forget receipt of one -John Woodcock, knowing it to Le
forged.
Mr. Brandt conducted the prosecution; the prisoner was
defended by Mr. J. Pollock.
The prisoner, it appeared, was in the employment of the
British and Foreign Copper Company, at Sutton, near St.
Helen's. It was the prisoner's duty to check the weekly
accounts. He was so engaged on Saturday, the 4th July,
and among other accounts handed one in from John IVood-
cock, for 71. 9s. 2d.. a mark, which purported to be the signa-
ture of John Woodcock being attached. The cashier refused
to cash it, as he had no proof of its being Woodcock's mark,
without an attesting witness. The prisoner went out with it
and came back with the signature of John Sheldon, the fore-
man, attached as a witness to the mark of Vs'oodcock. It
appeared from the testimony of Woodcock and his pertner
that the amount of his account in the week in question was
only 21. 7s. 2d., and this sum he received from the pri-oner.
He had never signed the account in question, and knew
nothing of its being presented.
Mr. Penner, for the prisoner, contended that the charge
of uttering with intent to defraud Woodcock must fall to the
ground, as the prisoner had actually paid to him all the
money which was due to him. As to the uttering at all, with
a guilty knowledge of its being a forgery, he submitted that
without the testimony of Shenton, who was not called, they
could not be satisfied of that fact. There was no question
as to thegenuineness of Shenton's signature ; he, at all events,
believed the mark to be Woodcock's mark, and attested it
accordingly, and he submitted it was imperative upon the
prosecution to have called him to show the circumstances
under which his attestation was appended.
His Lomsoir in summing up commented on the absence
of Shentou, who it was clear was a most material witness.
Verdict—Not Guilty.
The prisoner was then indicted for obtaining money under
false pretences. It appeared tie had handed in a list of per-
sons to whom wages were due, amounting to 4/. Ils., re-
ceived the money, and appropriated it to his own use, there
being in fact no such wages due to the individuals in quas-
tion.
Verdict—Guilty. Sentence deferred.

Although Mr. Baron Platt, in passing the awful sentence
of death on the wretched man Smith, said that he could hold
out no hopes of mercy on this side the grave, yet Mr. Alder-
man Sidney and the Sheriffs are determined to use every ex-
ertion in their power to obtain a commutation of the sentence,
by getting it reduced to that of transportation, and a petition
is already in circulation for signatures for the same purpose.
to be presented to the Secretary of State, as the medium by
which the royal mercy can be extended. The wretched
man, as far as he is concerned, is fully prepared for the worst,
and, in fart, from the time he delivered himself up down t,
the present, he has entertained no hope of having his life
spared. This feeling has been so deeply impressed on his
mind, that it may be said to amount to that of fatalism. Oes
cause of this incrbid feeling arises from the divination of a
dealer in the occult sciences; fin- while be was in Giltspur-
street Lompter, he wrote a letter to the Governor, in which
he stated, that when a boy of fi;e years of age, his parents had
his horoscope cast, and they were informed that he would come
to an untimely and disgraceful death ; that this prediction
was always uppermost in his thoughts, and by no mode of
reasoning could he remove this deep-rooted impression from
his mind. When be was taken from the Compter fur re-
examination on Tuesday last, he then stated to the officer
who removed him that he hoped that that examination
would be his last, for he was fully prepared to meet his
fate, which was inevitable; that he deeply and sincerely
regretted what had occurred, but it could not be avoided.
11' hen he was taken to Newgate, Mr. Sheriff Sidney hap•
pened to be there, and was in conversation with the chaplain.
The worthy and humane Alderman instantly entered ints
conversation with Smith, by asking him if he had taken any.
steps towards his defence, and whether he had caused
any gentleman of the bar to defend him. He replied than
he had not, for he was quite prepared for the worst, and
that he intended to plead guilty; that he had not the re-
motest intention a minute before he committed the dreadful
act to take the lifeof the deceased, but during the absence of
tee little girl Ann Wetenhall the deceased made use of
some violent expressions, and jumped up from the chair in
which she had been sitting, holding the knife which she hail
in her band in a menacing attitu te, when he unfortunately
having his cook's knife in his hand, and being goaded, as
it were, to madness by her reproaches, rushed on he,
and wounded her in the neck, and under the fatal impulst
of the moment, and in a paroxysm of rage, he forced
her head back and inflicted the deadly wound. Shy
then staggered towards the door. As soon as lie observed
what he had done be was horror stricken. The worthy Al-
derman remarked, that if such was the case, there were ex-
tenuating circumstances, and advi-ed him to obtain profes
sional aid. Smith, however refused to do so, and the
Sheriffs, therefore, directed Mr. Clarkson to defend the
wretched man. That the dreadful act was the result of it
sudden impulse there can be no doubt, for his fellow-servants
on the trial spoke to his general good temper, and Mr. In-
spector Woodruffe in his cross, examination said, he hail
known the prisoner for ten years, and he was the very lass
man he should have thought would commit such an act
When he was being brought tip from the gaol for trial he
said he was aware of the result—that he was satisfied that
the jury would find him guilty. When he was r,conducte,i
back to the prison after the awful and dreadful sentence of
death had been passed, he merely said that he was glad tha
it was over, for he knew there was no hope for him. Since
he has been in Newgate he has been several times visited by
. his unfortunate wife, who has administered as far as she
could to his wants and comforts. The result of the trial, it
is understood, has had the most fearful effects on her, being
as it were now left destitute with four young children de-
pending upon her. Should the Sheriffs and those who arc
exerting themselves to save the life of the wretched man,
fail in obtaining the royal clemency, his execution will take
plate within a month, the Sheriffs having the power
to suspend the carrying of the sentence into effect for that
time.

FROM THE RHINE. AUG. 10.—It was reported some
time ago, that his Royal Highness the Duke of Nassau
had asked for the hand of the Grand Duchess Cathe-
rine, younger sister of his dt ceased consort, daughter of
the Grand Duke Michael ; but that the permission f'or
this union bad been refused by the Chief of the
Holy Synd (i e. the Emperor of RuSsia), as
contrary to the usages of the Greek Church. It is said
that the Emperor will now give his consent to this mar-
riage. Her Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess
Catherine was born on the 23th of August, 1627. In
her person and manners she is said to be a striking re-
semblance to her deceased sister, the Duchess Elizabeth.
—Hamburgh Papers, Aug. 22.

The child was, in the several counts, described as beiog
known by the name of Thomas Davis al, and it was objected
tOr the defence, that this was wrong, ioa,nueli as this 6e-
seription applied to the time of the otilice committed, when
the child was cot known by any name.
His LOILDSHIP thought the objection a valid one, but left
the case to the jury on the facts whether tie prisoner had the
intent alleged in he indictment, or whether, under all the
circumstances, they thought she put it there from being at
themomentnoableto pay better at,ention to it.

Verdict—Not Guilty..
WiWear Scott, Henry Goss', John Smith, and Thomas B
in-
croft, were indicted, the three fortner for a burvlary in the
le.uSe of Mr. Wiffiam Lard.- at Manchester, the latter fur
feloniously receiving a part of the stolen property.
Mr. Sergeant Wilkins and Mr. flulter. conducted the pro-
secution; the prisoners Scott, Smith, and Bancroft were tie-
fended by Mr. Potluck.
The burglary was committed on the 6th of April last, the
robbers having effected an entrance by taking up tie
cellar. grid. A quantity of silver spoons, forks, and other
articles of a similar kind had be,n taken sway, together with
some clothes from the hall. Nothing was heard of the
robbers for upwards of a month after, when one of the Man-
chester police went to search Scott's home. Wh le the officer
was there Goss came in, Scott having previously stated
that he was a lodger. On swaddle, ben sonic keys were
found, which were found to it some boars up stairs, and in
them were found a great number of skeleton keys, a small
crowbar, and other articles. lin the kitchen, under a cup-
board, was found a pair of slippers, the soles it which were
composed of felt, and in the cupboard a dark lantern. Goss
stated that the things found. in the boxes had been brought
there the evening before by a Man who was called John, and
who was a blacksmith by trade. Scott afterwards told the
officer that Goss had not given a true descrip,ion of the man,
and ,that- that man and Goss had committed. the robbery.
After being taken to gaol Goss wrote a letter to Mr. Beswick,
the superintendent, sta.ing that Scott and he had committed
the robbery, and that Scott had concealed some of the ar-
ticles under the cellar floor, and had some other articles
under the floor of his bedroom On searching the louse the
forks, &c., were found in a small box under the bricks in the
cellar. Smith, in consequence of the description given by
Scott, was taken into custody. lie lodged with Bancroft, and
in Bancroft's house, concealed under a bed, was a small quan
tity of linen, which wa identified as parr of the property
stolen. Bancroft said he had got it. from Smith oh account
of his lodgings, which Smith did not deny.
After a long investigation the jury found Scott and Goss
Guilty, and acquitted Smith and Bancroft.
Scott, it appeared, had formerly been in the police at Man-
chester and had been dismissed for being drunk and fighting
while off duty. His beat adjoined that on which Mr. Lord's
house was. It appeared that some years ago he had been
convicted of felony at the Carlisle assizes and sentenetd to
transportation, but that sentence had been commuted. lie
was also convicted at these ass:zes for having coining instru-
ments in his possession, they having been discovered at the
time his house was searched in consequence of the present
robbery.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
BO W-STREET.

One of those amphibious animals known as " mudlarks,"
who, like the heroes of several old ballads, " live on the
banks of a stream," was charged with assaulting a lad named
Edward Dyer, by throwing a handful of mud at him.
The complainant said that on Sunday he was standing
on the steps under Hungerford-bridge, looking at a number
of boys (amongst whom was the prisoner) who were
"scrambling" for halfpence thrown by people on the bridge
into the mud, when the prisoner suddenly, and without pro-
vocation, took up a handful of mud and threw it at him.
,

An inspector pit the Thames police, who took the prisoner
in charge, said that the practice of throwing halt-
pence from the bridge was a very great nuisance.
A number of " bad characters," like the prisoner,
assembled at the foot of the bridge every Sunday
evenirg to "scramble" for- them, and were fighting
and struggling in the mud, and annoying the passengers by
throwing mud about and usingfoul language all the evening.
The police could not do anything to put a stop to the nui-
sance, although one of the F and one of the L diviAon were
constantly on duty on the bridge; it took some time to get
down to the steps, and the boys always ran away as soon as
they saw a policeman coming, and as soon as he returned to
the bridge they went back to the place and laughed at him.
Mr. HENRY said the police ought to speak to the people
on the bridge, and request them not throw money to the
complainant,

THE BLEEDING PEEMIEIL—When Sir Robert Peel
lately made his memorable speech on going out of office, he
was very much agitated. lie bled profusely by the nose;
and an lion. Member behind him (Colonel Rushbrooke) ob.
*erring that he bad only a white silk handkerchief—soon dis-
figured by the stains—banded to him u red handkerchief.
The Premier bowed, accepted the proffer, and procetded
a speech, destined, perhaps, to affect the leg-islation of
the world. The debate went on, great excitement prevailed ;
Lceiit Colonel Ituz4librooke, retiring about one or two o'clock
in the morning, his mind occupied with the international
all:ors of the whole terraqueous globe, was suddenly brought
from his altitude by Peel's livery servant, with his
hiaiter's coniplimenls and thanks, presenting to him the said
red silk handkerchief—carefully washed, ironed and folded,
lust as it it had been lent by a milliner's girl to a laundress.

We regret to state that Colonel Swale, of the Royal
Marines, was seriously hurt on Saturday evening last, by the
upeietting of the Chichester coach at Coshatn, near Ports-
mouth. The injury received by the Gallant Officer is a corn-
pound fracture of the leg. Two other passengers were also
slightly hurt. The aecidant was caused by the breaking of
the axle of one of the fore wheels.

The past week's arrivals of all descriptions of Grain of home pro-
duce, including Flour, were on a very limited -cafe, tekeii coleciively.
Front Scotland very title Grain came to hand ; but front Ireland the
receipts of Oats were on the Increase. The imports of Foreign
Wheat, Oats, and Flour were tolerably extensive. Fresh up, tally a
moderate quantity 01 Wheat came to hand from our own coasts, and
the actual quantity on otter was small. All kinds, owing to the unfavour-
able accounts from lreland respecting the potato cro:‘, moved off
readily, at an advance in the currencies obtained on Monday last of
from 2s to fully 3s per quarter, and at which a good clearance was
effected b. the factors. The above advance slaws a trifling improve-
ment on Friday's prices. The show o' Foreign Wheat was not to
say extensive. Holders were again very firm, and succeeded in ob-
taining an improvement in the value noticed on this nay se'nnight of
from is to 4s per quarter. Very few samples a ere on offer In bond, and
so little bu likes., was transacted in them that prices were a most nomi-
nal. Owing to the prevailing changeable weather, the progress of bar-
vestwork in the north has been very slow. Very li,tle English Barley
was on show ; grinding parcels were in 11101ierate request, at Lull
prices, but all other kinds were much neglected. The supply of Malt
was limited ; superfine parcels ready for delivery commanded
extreme r:tes. In all other kinds very few sales
were reported. The show of Oats was very - extensive ;
owing to which the Oat trade was nut quite so active
as on Friday, nevertheless the trade was firm at an im-
provement on last Monday's rates of le per quarter. Beans were
in good request, and the quotatiens had an upward tendency. For
Peas the demand was brisk, and blue parcels c mmanded 6s to cs
per quarter more money. to Flour we li,ve no alteration to report.

We had on offer about 490 Foreign Beasts, 2,0 A Sheep and Lambs,
and 31) Cal% es, a large !,ortion of which was suffering from the effects
of the prevailing epidemic; yet nearly the whole found buyers at full
prices. The arrivals of beasts fresh up front our grazaig districts
were tolerably good as to numbers, but very dt,ficient as to quality.
Notwithstanding the attendance of both town and country
buyers was numerous, the Beef trade was somewhat inac-
tive, at barely, but at nothing quotable beneath. last
week's prices, and a total clearance was with ditliculy effected.
Front the northern districts we received about 1,200 Shorthorns;
rom Norfolk, Suffolk, E. sex, and Cambridgeshire, 350 Scots,
breds and Sliorthonis ; from the W. stern and Midland Counties,
400 lieretiords, it tits, Devons, &c. ; from other parts of EnAland,
500 of various breeds; and from Scotland, 22 Scots ; the remainder
of the Bullock supply being derived from abroad and the neighbour-
hood of the metropolis The numbers of eep were again very
extensive. Prime old Downs commanded a brisk sale, at a further
improvement in value of 2d per 81bs., the highest figure being
4s Btl per In all other breeds, a good business was transacted,
and, in some instances, the cur envies had an upward tendency
Lambs, the supply or which was good, moved off steadily, at late
rates. The Veal trade was in a • higgish state, yet we can notice no
alteration in val. e. In l'igs very little was duthg, at late figures.

On the whole the arrivals of country-killed Meat up to these
mark..ts since Monday last have been on a full average scale, and of
good quality. The supplies killed in the metropolis have been good.
Prime Beef and Mutton have commanded a very steady sale, at, in
some instances, rather more money. In all other kinds of Meat very
little business has been transacted, and the .quotations have had t
6owira•ard tendency. Several carcases of tereigu Beasts, Sheep
Lambs, and Calves have found buyers.

This market is altogether flrntr. Fine old Y. C. is not to be had
under 41s 9d, and new Y. C. from the landing scale at 425. There is
io,thing new in the advices from St. l'etersburgh. The shipments are
progressing steadily Ihe quantity already shipped off is rather less
than for four or qve years past. Town Tallow is firmly held at 40s Cd

CHEAP AND WHOLESOME PHYSIC.—The inhabitants
of Hull have of late been undergoing a process of general
purgation through the instrumentality of the oceanic salts
with which their household supplies of water have been
grt•ssly impregated. Complaints have very reasonably been
made against the waterwork authorities for presuming thus
to usurp the functions of the" faculty."—The Bui'der.
KNIFE SWALLOWING.—The following singular case
Occurred during the present month, in the practice of Mr.
Gill, residing at Pentonville. A child, seven years old,
living in Islington, swallowed, on the evening of the 6th of
August, an open penknife, three inches long. The lad, a
very sickly one, was subsequently visited by Mr. Gill, who
f and the symptoms slight, consisted only of a little fever-
ishness, with occasional pains, and some tenderness over the
lower part of the stomach. lle was kept perfectly quiet,
the stomach fomented, and sedatives, with occasional doses
of castor oil administered. On the morning of the sixth
day, contrary to the opinion of some eminent physicians, to
whom the case was related, tl►e knife was passed from the
body, blade downwards, with perfect impunity to the pa-
tient, who rapidly recovered.
