THE WEDDING-DAY SUIT.
Some time has elapsed, since I ventured to render
A mark of respect to the feminine gender ;
And doubtless the ladies will think it high time
That the poet of MOSES should give them a rhyme.
Well, it happened one day, when the weather was calm,
That George and Jemima walked oat arm in arm,
And began to converse (as you'll guess front the heading)
Concerning a suitable suit for the wedding.
" My dear," said the gentleman, " where should I go
" For an elegant wedding-day suit—do you know ?
" I'm aware of your judgment in all that you view,
" So I'm anxious, my love, to be guided by you."
" Well as that is the case," said his miss, with a smile,
" I shall fix upon tailors renowned for their style ;
"By all means, dear George, let your wedding suit be
" One of MOSES and SON'S, if you wish to please mo.
"I have seen many fashions, but certainly none,
" In any way equal to MOSES and SON.
" The ease, and the fit, and the general grace,
"Cause a very material change to take place.
" I was thinking of giving a hint such as this,
" But I feared your high spirit would take it amiss."
"Oh no," rejoined George, " I may candidly say,
" That to your better judgment I always give way ;
"And believe, my dear, our opinions are ORC,
" Witk regard to the dress of E. MOSES and SON."

N.B.—E. MOSES and SON invite espec,al attention to their pre-
sent Stock of juvenile attire. The designs are elegant and unique,
and tho workmanship and materials are suck as to command univer-
sal approbation, while at the same time the prices are unusually mo-
derate.

victim of excessive indtogence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequexces, unwisely entertains a fear ef ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
trequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by his possession of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA!MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
gaarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
ROME ClRCUlT.—Chelmsford, July 24.
CROWN SlDE.—(Before the LORD CHIEF BenoN.)
At the sitting of the court, the prisoners Gould,
Bryant, Edwards, and Goodey, who were convicted on
Thursday of burglary and feloniously receiving stolen
property, were brought up for judgment, and sentenced
to be transported for ten years.
Mary May, 28. a repulsive-looking woman, was in-
dicted for the wilful murder of William Constable, by
administering to him a large quantity of arsenic.
In other counts of the indictment the deceased was
described as Spratty Watts, and in others as William
Watts.

The prosecution was conducted by Mr. Ryland and
Mr. Rodwell. The prisoner was defended by Mr. ser-
geant Chadwick Jones and Mr. T. Chambers.
The circumstances under which this charge was pre-
ferred appeared to be of a most appalling and atrocious
character. From the testimony of numerous witnesses,
it appeared that the prisoner lived with her husband
at a small village called Wix, a few miles from Har-
wich, where she kept a little grocer's or chandler's
shop, her family consisting of herself and husband, two
children, and a half-brother, the unfortunate de-
ceased. It seemed that be got his living by doing
any little jobs he could get in the village, and he
occupied one of the rooms in the prisoner's house jointly
with another man named Simpson, and he was generally
called in the village by the nickname of Spratty Watts.
The day upon which the poison was supposed to have
been administered was on the Bth of June, and it ap.
peared that up to that day the deceased had been follow-
ing his usual avocations, and there did not appear to be
anything the matter with him, neither had he complained
of any ailment. He returned home to the prisoner's
house about five o'clock in the afternoon ; and when
Simpson came in, about an hour afterwards, he found the
deceased sitting by the fire, and he complained of exces-
sive pain in the stomach, and was very sick and retched
most violently. He continued in this state the whole
night, and the next morning a medical man was sent
for, who gave him some rhubarb powder and a sedative
draught, and the deceased afterwards appeared to be
somewhat relieved, but he speedily became worse, and
another medical gentleman was sent for, who prescribed
for him, and on his leaving the house ho told the priso-
ner that her brother was very ill, and if he got worse
she must send for him. It appeared that the deceased
did continue to get worse, but the prisoner did not send
for any medical man, and on Sunday, the 11th of June,
at a quarter to eleven o'clock, the deceased died. The
evidence against the prisoner was, as usual in cases of
this kind, purely of a circumstantial character, but it
was of a most cogent description. It was proved that
when the deceased came home on the Thursday prior to
his death, that the prisoner sent one of her children to
fetch some porter, and when it was brought the prisoner
was seen to unlock a drawer and take from it a screwed
up piece of paper, and shake some powder from it into
the beer, which she then warmed in a saucepan and gave
it to the deceased, who drank it, and almost immediately
afterwards he was attacked by the illness of which he
died. Shortly after the deceased was buried it appeared
that various alarming and painful rumours were in sir-
culation, and at length the authorities considered it ad-
visable to have the body exhumed. - This was accord-
ingly done. The stomach was removed, and sub-
mitted to the examination of Professor Taylor and other
scientific gentlemen, and the result of that examination
showed most clearly that the death of the deceased' was
occasioned by arsenic, eight grains of that poison, a
quantity sufficient to destroy two grown-up persons,
being found in different parts of the stomach. It
seemed that some time before the Bth of June the pri-
soner had gone to the secretary of a sort of benefit or
burial society, at Harwich, and had insured the life of
the deceased, whom she made her nominee, and upon
his death she would have been entitled to a sum of 91. or
101., and it appeared that she had falsely represented his
age to be thirty-eight, when in point of fact he was
nearly fifty, an age which would have disentitled him to
be admitted into the society, and she also described him
by the false name of William Constable. There were
two clubs of a similar description, much nearer to Wix
than Harwich, but it appeared that the prisoner pre-
ferred going to the more distant one evidently to prevent
inquiry, and nothing whatever was known of her having
insured the life of the deceased untii he was attacked
with the malady of which he died, and it ap-
peared that from the very first moment of
his being so attacked, the prisoner anticipated
that he would be sure to die, making statements to that
effect to several persons, and at the same time informing
them of her expectations of receiving a sum of money,
when that event took place, from the society referred to.
To one person she also said that if she got the
money she should buy a horse and cart, and turn big-
gler, and to another neighbour she said that, when she
was paid the money, she would spend it in mourning,
and should take care that her poor brother was buried
decently; and the subject of the money appeared to be
uppermost in her mind, and there -was every reason
to believe that the prospect of obtaining possession of
the paltry sum in question was the motive for the
commission of the dreadful crime imputed to her.
It appears that almost immediately after the death
of the deceased, the prisoner requested one of her
neighbours to write to the society and inform
them of her brother's death, and request them to
take the necessary steps to hand her over the money
to which she was entitled ; but it seems that their
suspicions had been excited, and the money never was
paid to the prisoner. She was exceedingly anxious that
the deceased should be buried as speedily as possible
after he died; and upon her representation as to his state,
he was buried in three or four days, but was exhumed
on the 30th June, when the medical examination, as
before stated, left no doubt that arsenic was the cause of
death. There was no direct testimony that the prisoner
had purchased or had had in her possession any poison
of this description; but it was proved that when the stir
was made upon the subject of the deceased, and the
rumour prevailed that he had been poisoned, the pri-
soner made some very extraordinary statements. Upon
one occasion, she remarked that people were saying that
her brother died of arsenic, but she had never bad any
arsenic, and it' he was poisoned he must have taken it
himself. At another time, she said that she bad pur-
chased some arsenic of a chemist at Manningtree, to
kill rats.
These and other facts having been deposed to by the
witnesses,
Mr. Sergeant JONES made a most earnest and
commented upon the whole of the evidence with great
elo-
quent appeal to the jury on behalf of the prisoner. He
minuteness, and submitted to them that although there
might be very strong
suspicion, yet that all the suspi-
ciousn the cause of such a dread-
fulhe was entitled to the benefit of any character, s
circumstances were not incompatible with the pri-
soner's innocence, and that i
rea-
sonable doubt they
n might entertain upon the subject.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.
Charles Wilma, a carman in the employment of
Reddin and Co., dust contractors for the City, was
charged with having driven a poor horse which had a
large sore upon its shoulder and lumps upon its legs,
and was so exhausted as to be unable to rise after a fall
in the street.
The policeman who brought the case before the ma-
gistrate, said he had seen the horse a day or two be-
fore tumble in the street from mere exhaustion. The
poor animal made a great many struggles to rise, but
could not.
The defendant said the horse had by a fall the day be-
fore hurt its shoulder, but instead of being exhausted, it
was a most spirited animal, or how could it have strug-
gled so hard to get up?—(Laughter.)
Alderman MUSGROVE having ascertained that the
horse had been taken to the greenyard, the expenses of
which are considerable, sentenced the prisoner to pay a
fine
of ten shillings, or the alternative of Bridewell for
fourteen days.

Mr. Elliott, on a charge of embezzling 21. 145., the pro-
perty of his employers.
From the statements of Messrs. Piper and Gibbs, the
partners of M. Soyer; it appeared that the
prisoner had
been in their employment, and his duty was to take out
a quantity of the " nectar " to their customers, to re-
ceive the money for all he sold, and account for the re-
mainder when he brought it back. About three weeks
ago, however, he was discharged from his situation, and
it has been since discovered that he hail received money on
account of his employers while in their service, but had
since been supplying these customers with a spurious
article, having no claim to the much-approved mixture
of M. Soyer.
Elizabeth Hawkes, servant to Mr. Wolfe, the pur-
veyor at the Surrey gardens, deposed to having paid the
prisoner 2/. 145., which he had not accounted for; and
Mr. Gibbs produced a bottle of the spurious mixture
latterly vended by Wilks, and though in a bottle bear-
ing the stamp of M. Soyer, bore no comparison to it.
The prisoner was remanded, but admitted to bail.

The distance was as before, but reversed. It was a
capital heat. Weed dashed off with the lead, and re-
tained it until coming the second time round, when
Harris's pace was too good for him, and after a most
determined struggle Harris won by three lengths.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO 71-IREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was
steady, but there was no change in prices. The supply
was good. Sales, 4,000 baler. Railway Shares were
very firm, with but few transactions; sellers generally
would not accept reduced rates.
Considerable disappointment has been excited
at the tenor of the news from India. The mer-
cantile accounts received by the last mail were
rather encouraging, and there was an actual
improvement in the demand for goods at Manchester
and other places in consequence. This is so far unfor-
tunate, because our Indian houses have for some time
past been " burning both ends of the candle."
They hare lost upon imports and exports, and
the same thing appears to be likely to happen
again. The growing crop of Indigo seems to be of un-
certain prospect as to the yield, although we will not
attach too much importance to this as being the usual
annual "story" to support the market. The weak-
ness of the great Eastern mart for British
goods and Indian produce, Calcutta, is shown by
the sudden change that has come over it. The feruler
accounts noticed a most active business in goods, and
better hopes for the future. The present advices would
seem to show that matters are expected to become worse.
At Bombay and also at Canton the state of affairs was
more promising.
The dried fruit trade report of Messrs. Witherby and
Hanson, for the period since the 26th ult., states that—
" The clearances for home consumption from 21st ult.
to 19th inst., have been 535 tons against 420 tons, and
670 tons in the like periods of 1847 and 1846.
"'slit Liverpool, during the four weeks ending the
11th inst., they have been 220 tons against 235
tons, and 400 tons during the corresponding
weeks of 1847 and 1846. The official returns of the
Board of Trade exhibit the consumption of currants in
the United Kingdom during the first five months of this
year to have been 6,765 tons against 5,100 tons, and
5,875 tons during the corresponding months of 1847 and
1846.

"In our last report we estimated the stock in bond here
at about 1,250 tons, basing our calculation on the weight
of the packages imported, the butt at 15 cwt. nett, the
carroteel at 5 cwt., and the barrel at 2 cwt., which at the
close of the season of 1846, made our statement to be cor-
rect,' the stocks at the warehouses at that period being
entirely exhausted. We find from returns lately made,
that the actual weight imported since 1646 has been
about 1,000 tons more than we had computed it at, the
difference arising principally from the great
increase in the import of barrels, 24,000 barrels
having been received since 1846, which, calculated
at 23- cwt. instead of 2 cwt., would alone make a differ-
ence of about 600 tons. We shall, therefore, in future,
calculate the barrel at 2i cwt. instead, the butt at 16
cwt., and the carroteel at 5i cwt., and shall alter accord-
ingly the comparative stocks of previous years. We feel
it to be a duty to ourselves to add, that we have from
time to time named the total number of packages, and
our mode of computation, that those who differed from
WI might make their calculations accordingly."
The committee of Spanish American Bondholders have
received a communication from their agents in Mexico
which promises well under existing circumstances. The
now Government of the republic is inclined to take the
claims of the foreign bondholders into early considera-
tion, and we may hope, perhaps, that something will be
done ere long.
The English Funds have been depressed 1 per cent. as
compared with yesterday, and as much on account of
the spread of the potato disease, apprehended from the
continuance of the wet weather, as trom any other cause,
the Irish news being still of an uncertain character, so
far that some fighting may be expected, although
there, is no reason to be apprehensive of the eventual
success of the Government. Consols opened at 863
fell to 86-1-, 1, and are now 86; 3. The New Three-anc-
a-Quartor per Cents. have been 87i, and since 86k.
Bank Stock is 1993 to 197 i. Exchequer-bills are 425.
to 465. for those of March.
In Foreign Securities the dealings have been limited.
Spanish Five per Cents. are 11 3, and the Three per
Cents. 22. Portuguese Four per Cents. are 18g. Mexi-
can Bonds have been 17 i, and Brazilian 69. Dutch
Four per Cents. are 71 to 72.
The state of the Railway Share Market is much less
favourable than yesterday, but there is not much doing.
