.prisition which was taken on Monday evening, befor.
Rohert Barr, Esq., the Coroner for this borough, at the
house of Mr. George Craven, the Railway Tavern, at the
Bank.
Sarah Wittleston of Wakefield, was the sister of Ann
Crver, the wife of William Cryer, an excavator, who
lived in Grantham-street, at the Bank. She had at•
tended her sister for about a week, who was delivered of
a male child on the night of Sunday, the 6th instant
She had since been Loth well and ill, but during the last
two or three days had beer. worse. She had something
like a milk fever, and during the time it had been on her,
she had not been quite herself, but rambled in her talk.
Witness slept with her si,ter on Saturday ❑ight, and
went to bed a little after twelve o'clock. On Sunday
morning the witness's sister struck witness on the face
with ber hand and awoke her. The husband (Cryer) way
lying on a bed in the corner of the room, and witness awoke
him and asked him to get up and light a candle, which bedid.
Witness also got up, and she then discovered that her sister

had cut her own throat, and that blood was running down
her breast. She also saw the child, which was laid in the
ight arm of her sister in bed, and she observed that it
had its throat cut and was dead. Witness also saw a
razor lying on a chair la,side the bed, near to her; but
she did not perceive whether or not there was any blood
upon it. She had never seen it before. The husband
gave an alarm, and people came into the house. Witness
had not been awoke from the time direr going to bed till
the period that her sister struck her. When the people
came into the house the mother of the deceased asked what
was the matter. She never spoke after that till the after-
noon, except whispering as to her pain. Witness served
the child between eleven and twelve o'clock on Saturda}
night before she went to bed, and when she put it to bed
to her sister she gave it the breast. Witness bad not
heard her get up during the night; the husband went to
hed before witness. The child bad been named William
Christopher Cryer.
Wm. Cryer, the father of the deceased, sail, that when
he went home on Saturday evening his wife told him she
was much beater. She was capable of conversing with
him in a rational manner; but be did not speak to her
after eleven. Between six and seven on Sunday morning
iris wife's sister awoke him, and he then found that his
wife was lying on her back bleeding.
11r. Joh❑ White, surgeon, who had attended the mother
of the deceased when the child was born, said that she
had not been carried on well afterwards. The milk did not
flow to the breasts as usual, and that was calculated to
produce fever and excitement. She had always had a
degree of fever, which had latterly increased. Witness
saw her between six and seven o'clock on Saturday night,
and he thought she was much better; she said she had bad
three or four hours of comfortable rest. Witness never
perc,ived in her any symptoms of wildness or insanity ;
she answered rationally the questions he put to her. He
had known cases where obstructions to the flowing of
mirk to the breasts bed led to the temporary loss of reason.
Mr. James Ward, surgeon, was called in to see the
deceased about ball-past seven on Sunday morning. He
found it in its mother's arms Trite dead. Witness said
that the milk Lever produced excitement and delirium,
and was a 1,% ays attended with a disposition to commit
violence either on themselves or others.

The Jury, after some deliberation, returned a verdict
of " Wilful Murder against Ann Cryer."
The witnesses were immediate!), bound over to appear
at the York Assis,s to give evidence against her; but the
Coroner intimated that he should represent the facts of
the c.o.e to the Secretary of State for the Home Depart-
ment, who had the power to order her into other arid
more suitable custody than that of the Governor of York
Castle, till the time of trial arrives.

The further proceedings in the matter were rendered
unnecessary, by the death of the unfortunate mother,
which took place yesterday morning about nine o'clock.
An inquest was held last evening upon the body of this
lamented young woman, at the house of Mr. Joseph Yates,
the King's Arms lon, at the Bank. She was in her 21st
year, and this was her second confinement by child-birth.
The Jury returned a verdict that " The deceased de.
stroyed herself in a fit of insanity."

THE BUCCANEER.—" There is a masculine
vigour and breadth of style, a dramatic force of conception
in the characters, and a range of imagination, not displayed
in any of Mrs. HALL'S former writings, and very rarely ex-
hibited by any female author. The power of mind exerteil
in realizing and depicting scenes is indeed extraordinary.
If, in these volumes, Mrs. HALL must be considered as an
imitator, it is a pupil's imitation of his master, which dues
honour to both. In the bold track which SCOTT first
opened, it required almost equal courage and tact to follow.
There is much in these volumes that reminds us of the
great departed magician, though nothing that can be re-
garded as servilely borrowed ; and we might almost fancy
that he had lent his wand."—Electic. Review.
Last week a fine specime❑ of the common
eagle was shot at Holkham, by Mr. SEELS; it had been
seen for several weeks previous. It stood two feet nine
inches Mali, the extent of its wings seven feet, and weighed
38Ibs. Hares and rabbits seem to be the principal objects
of pursuit with this species. It has often been observed
soaring i❑ the air with these animals in its talons. We
understand it is preserved, and in the possession of Mr.
GALES, merchant, of Wells.
DEATH OF MR. CHARLES DIBDIN, THE
DRAMATIC WRITER. —This well-known writer and per-
former expired at his lodgings on Tuesday, in Garden-
row, London-road (within the rules of the King's Bench
Prison), where he had resided for some. The deceased
was in Lis sixty-fifth year, and a medical gentleman gave
it as his opinion that he bad died from decay of nature,
and no other cause. One of the Jurors inquired whether
the decease(' had been in want of the common necessaries
of life, which was answered in the negative. The Jury
proceeded to the residence, and after taking a view of the
body, returned a verdict in accordance with the opinion
expressed by the surgeon. The deceased was much re-
spected ; he was the author of The Cabinet, The Quaker,
and other sucees+ful pieces, and was at one time the pro-
prietor of Sadier's Webs Theatre. His circumstances be-
came reduced lately, and he took up his abode within the
limits of the King's Bench Prison.

On Tuesday morning an explosion of fire-
damp took place in the Little Coal Mill Pit, at Bothwell
Haigh, belonging to Messrs. CIL% RLESWORTII. The set-
tings in which the explosion took place had not been
worked for the last six months, and the accident was en-
tirely occasioned by the negligence of the workmen, who
carelessly went into the workings with two lighted candles,
though they had been cautioned over night by the steward
to use only the patent szfety lamps. Two men, named
GEORGE Gmatics and Thomas GIBSON, were much
scorched by the flame. The former had his hair much
scorched, but is likely to recover; the latter, who was
carrying the light, is not considered out of danger. Both
the men are at the Leeds General Infirmary.—Leeds In
telligencer.

SUPPOSED MURDER OF A LUNATIC.-
On Wednesday, an inquest was held at Huntingdon, on
the body of THOMAS CooKE, a young man of weak mind,
wbo was found drowned in a little brook, close to the
town, on Tuesday morning. A surgeon stated, that there
was no mat kof violence, except a small scratch on the
temple ; and he had no doubt the death was accidental.
The deceased's watch stopped at a quarter-past nine.
JAMES MILTON gated, that he met the deceased about
half-past 9 o'clock on Monday night, and they spoke to-
geilier. There was a female behind the deceased, who
immediately joined him, and was pulling him about.
Deceased was not in liquor. Mrs. Cum.'s, who lives
near the brook, stated, that about 9 o'clock on Monday
night, a female wrapped violently at her neighbour's door,
and called out, " There's a man in the ditch." Witness
went i,ut with a lawborn, and the woman cried out,

" The man is out of the ditch," and ran away. Witness
returned to her house. The Jury, after 20 minute,' deli-
beration, returned a verdict--" We find that the deceased
was found drowned in a ditch, and that such death was
occasioned by his being shoved in by some person or per-
sons to the Jury unknown."

(From the Constitutionnel of Saturday, Jan. 19.)
PATROS, DEC. 15.
(Private Correspondence.)
STATE OF GREECE, INTRIGUES OF RUSSIA.
Tranquillity is far from being testored in Greece;
Tzavellas still keeps possession of the citadel of Patros, and
levies contributions on the inhabitants of the town and
neighbourhood; he also gives orders to the Governor of
the Castle of the illorea. Corinth has been once more
taken by the opposite party, which leaves the road from
Patros to Napoli at the mercy of all this irregular hand,
which, in the last instance, depends on Colocotroni. The
other side of the gulf is not in a more peaceable state.
Grivas occupies for the Government the town of Misso-
longhi, but he is surrounded by the captains of the party
Gdocotroni ; it is feared that the presence of these
enemies, who have no resources left, may lead to piracy.
It is certain that the senators, stimulated by Russian
intrigue, fled from Napoli, to the number of nine or ten,
and retired to Athos, taking a printing press with them ;
their plan was to enter into an arrangement with Coloco-
troni to make modifications in the present Government,
and even to recall Count Augustin Capo d'lstrias, under
the pretext of restoring order, while the arrival of the
Regency, so long delayed, was expected ; not in reality to
discourage the King of Bavaria, and induce him to give
up the idea of sending his sun to Greece, by making him
helieve that it is impossible to restore order there. This
attempt has just been successful. Celocotroni, discouraged
V a step which he took some time ago, to which he had
been exalted by the Russians, and in which he was not
-ecor,d.d by those who had instigated him, has, it is said,
refused to assume the reins of government in the name of
Count A. Capo d'lstiias, till his arrival. What is certain
is, that he has not supported the plans of the senators,
who, in these circumstances, have been abandoned by the
Russians.

It is said that a Russian officer, who favoured the
departure of the senators from Napoli, has been severely
reprimanded by the resident of that power. The Regency
and Prince Otho are said to be at hand. We have long
been impatiently expecting them. Who knows whether
they will be able to prevent a catastrophe, and at length to
restore order and trarquillity in this country?
The Messager des Chambrea, noticing the news given
in the Constitutionnel respecting a victory obtained by
Ibrahim Paella, near Broussa, observes :
" This news is so wholly at variance with the offensive
movements of the Grand Vizier, that it seems prudent to
doubt it till we receive farthei. information. Besides
Ibrahim could not have reached Broussa, from which he
was still at the distance of 120 leagues. He must first
pass Mount Olympus, a chain as lofty as our Alps, as
dangerous in winter, by the accumulation of the snows,
and over which there are in no part any toads.
(Nrom the National.)
PARIS, JAN. 18.—Russia wishes Ibrahim to succeed.
It thinks that if the Sultan sees himself threatened in his
capital he will be obliged to implore Russian assistance,
and that thus a long stride will be made towards the com-
pletion of the system, which dates from the Empress Ca-
therine, and has for its object to obtain Constantinople
for Russia. Austria, which has no pretensions to the na-
vigation of the Black Sea, desires the succe-s of the Sul-
tan, as the best means of depriving Russia of the pretext
she seeks. England, solicited by the Porte, has a double
interest in supporting Turkey. Like Austria, she dreads
anything which would give the command of the Bospho-
rus to Russia, and she is little favonrable to the progress
of the African Ottoman, which she regards as the natural
ally of France. The French Cabinet, adopting the sys-
tem of statu quo, seems to wish that Ibrahim should be
stopped in his victorious march, fearing that the dangers
of the Ottoman Porte may add to the chances of general
war. It has neglected our interests so much on that side,
that for nearly a year France has had no representative at
Constantinople. Her interests seem, indeed, contradictory.
On the one hand, she must wish, like Austria and England,
that the Ottoman power should remain, and be able to
defend against the poser of Russia that Bosphorus which
is the key to the Mediterranean. She is, on the other
hand, interested, particularly as she is in possession of
Algiers, in seeing the Atiican Ottoman increase in power
and in civilization, so that it might bear the expense of
re-establishing the trade between the Mediterranean and
the East Indies by the Red Sea. If the Egyptian army.
takes Constantinople, which will probably not happen, it
will not be bad for that capital, because the present pos-
sessor would be conquered by a snore intelligent ruler.
The beginnings of civilization, so painfully realized by the
Sultan, would not be destroyed. but extended. That will
bappen probably at a later period, and we therefore feel
much interested by the success of the Egyptians, although
the present expedition, should it not succeed, may favour
the views of Russia. But it is impossible that Russia,
under any pretext, should be suffered alone to interfere
with the Ottoman Empire, and alone contribute to dis-
member it. England, France, and Austria, united by a
common interest, would reply to such an attempt by a
Polish insurrection, which would destroy the Colossal
Empire of the Muscovites. Is it yet possible that Russia
can blind herself to her weakness, and that our Doctrin-
naires yet believe in her strength ?
(From the Journal des Debats.)
PARIS, JAN. 18.—The Moniteur of yesterday says—
" The Government has received news from Berlin to-day,
stating that orders were sent on the Bth to General Mu

fling, to place on a footing of peace, and in their old
cintonments, the Prussian forceq forming the Corps of Ob-
servation." The formation of a Prussian army on the
borders of the Meuse was a measure of precaution re-

quired by our expedition to Antwerp. That being taken,
the French airily has repassed the frontiers. It was for
the French Government to give at once a proof of its
power and its good faith. The Prussian Government has
in its turn ordered the corps on the Meuse, under the
command of General Aluffling, to be distributed. In all

these proceedings, there is mutual good faith, which
cannot do otherwise than draw closer the bonds of amity

among the Powers of Europe, and place the general peace
upon an immoveable foundation.
We would rather have an organization which would
allow everybody to be elected by a few persons, than one
which would allow only few persons to be elected by all
the world. We prefer univ, real eligibility to universal
suffrage. Raise the electoral qualification, lower the
eligible qualification. Allow the choice to be the most un-
limited and free possible ; but at the same time take care
that those who have to choose ure enlightened and inde-
pendent, so that they will make a good donee. To nar-
row the circle of eligibility, is to ntrrow electoral rights.
It is good to have a large number of electors ; but do not
forget the quality of their right. It is of little import-
ance if it be possessed by many, if it be of itself of little
value. It is of little consequence that many might con-
cur in the election, if they can only elect this man or
that man. These remarks apply to the exclusion by the

Chamber of the ministers of religion paid by the State.
It is M. Dupin who decided that exclusion. In that we

believe that he allowed himself to be swayed too much by
his recollections. The clergy are to be excluded frem the

Councils-General of the Department, and why on what
principle ? We are not now in the yeac 1827. The
Jesuits and St Achelt do not now fc,rm processions, the
monogramme of the Society of Jesuits, and the em-

blem cif the sacred heart, are no longer emblazoned on the
front even of the couches of the Chamber of Deputies ;
the Church does not appear ready to invade the Stye. We

could, then, at present, he less Gallicans and less Vol-
tarians than we are, and we might apply, without dread,
the principles of religious toleration.

(From Galignani's Messenger cf Saturday.)
At away, on the 17th, the King proceeded at eleven
o'clock to the Place d'Armes, accompanied by the Princes,
and attended by Marshals Sault and Gerard, to review
the National Guards : the artillery engaged in the siege
• of Antwerp, amounting to 3,000 men, under General
Niegre; General Schramm's division, composed of the
41st and 50th of the Line, 3 battalions of grenadiers and
3 battalions of Voltig,urs, commanded by Gen. Itulhiere
and General Durocherer, with two batteries of artillery
attached. After minutely inspecting the troops, a eirce
was formed, and his Majesty distributed the various in-
signia forming the honourable rewards of those who had
distinguished the,aselves. Ttie whole then filed off before
the King, the besieging artillery being followed by 4 field
pieces taken from the Dutch. His Majesty afterwards
rude to the ramparts to examine a new bastion, thence to
the general hospital, and aft, rwards to the arsenal and the
foundry, where 6 howitzers of 6 inches diameter, and 3
field-pieces of 8,
were cast upon a new model, in the pre-
sence of the King and the Princes. This operation was

attended with complete success. The Royal party
turned to their residence at about half.past 4.
At seven o'clock on Thursday morning the Queen
the Belgians was agreeably surprised at Lille by an uner;
pected visit from the Duke of Orleans, who, being tenderly
attached to his sister, left Douay at five o'clock, and was
in the presence of his mother and sisters in two hours.
At eight o'clock, having again taken an affectionate leave
of his beloved sister, his Royal Highness hastened back to
attend the King. The Queen heard mass in her apart-
ments as usual. The ladies directresses of the Lying-in
Charity were admitted to pay their respects to her Ma
testy, who entered very minutely into the state of the in-
stitution, and promised them patronage and support. The
Queen afterwards remitted a sum of money in aid of its
benevolent objects, and has also bestowed similar bounties
on various other hospitals. It was expected that the
Royal party would on the last day of their visit inspect
the public Library and Museum, and preparaions were
made for their reception, but they were deterred by the
unfavourable state of the weather, and probably by the
natural desire of spending as much time as possible with
the young Queen of the Belgians, from whom they were
to be separated on the following morning early, the
Queen having ordered her carriages for her departure at
six o'clock, wishing to reach Compiegne the same even-
ing. The King and Queen of the Belgians will return
direct to Brussels.
The following speech was delivered by the King of
Wurtemberg on his opening of the States at Stutgard,
on the 15th inst. :
" Peers and Deputies,—At the period fixed by our con-
stitution I have assembled my faithful States around me.
The time which has elapsed since the close of the last Ses
sion has been conscientiously employed in prep .ring Bills
of major importance to my subjects, and which my Minis-
ters are directed to lay before you. Ido not doubt that
the new penal code about to be proposed to you will supply
the wants which have been declared by the States, and by
all the judicial authorities in the kingdom. As to the re-
gulations now in force with regard to our military system,
notwithstanding the principles of simplicity and economy
on which they are founded, they have afforded us the
means of fulfilling our engagements towards the Germanic
Confederation without any extraordinary efforts, pro-
ducing a salutary effect under recent circumstances, by
proving that Wurtemberg was prepared for whatever
might arise in the course of events. This salutary result
is due in great part to the laws which rule the recruit-
ing of our army, and which will be rendered etill more
complete by a Bill upon the organization of the land-
welly, which will be submitted to your consideration. I
have great satisfaction in being able to announce to you,
that the regularity and economy that prevails in all the
branches of the Administration have admitted my pro-
posing to you an es,ential reduction in the price of salt,
and in the taxes of the Notariate. Sevoral other hills
will he submitted to you, tending to produce a sensible
relief by simplifying and diminishing the land-tax. In
these changes to be produced in our system of taxes, the
Government, far from losing sight of the interests of those
who have claims upon the revenue, has applied itself, on
the contrary, to regulate them in all solicitude for meeting
demands founded in justice and equity, by offering to those
interested in them compensations proportioned to their
aacrlfices, and which will be realized in part by the sav-
ings of preceding years. I abandon myself to a confident
hope that my Government will succeed in overcoming all
the difficulties that have opposed a wider expansion of our
commercial relations, although these difficulties have
seemed to augment in proportion to the extension of our
negotiations. Hiving for sixteen years been invested by
Providence with the government of the country, the
ciples by which I have been constantly guided, and the
rummer in which I have conducted the Administration,
are sufficiently and generally known. They have gained me
the acknowledgments of toy subject.., and the confidence of
ray confederates. Nothing can ever induce me to deviate
from the path I have traced out for myself. I have
received with great emotion the marks of sincere attach-
ment to my person which, during the late unsettled
times, have been shown towards me by my people, and I
am the more convinced of their loyalty from their un-
shaken submission to the existing laws. It is upon you,
my faith ul States, that the people, and indeed all Ger-
many, at this moment turn their fixed attention. If your
deliberations are still guided and animated by a genuine
love of your country, and by a well.considered zeal for its
prosperity, you may then rely no: only upon the general
approbation but also upon the gratitude of a Sovereign
whose sole object and endeavours are to be the father of
his country."

The Augsburg and Vienna Gazettes, and the other
journals of the south of Germany, which generally supply
us with the most recent news from Constantinople, are
silent on the subject of the news of a peace between the
Porte and the Pacha of Egypt, reported by the Garde
Nationale of Marseilles, but on the contrary, there are
letters from Smyrna, dated the 20th ult., five days later
than those quoted by the Marseilles journal, which state
that a complete victory had been gained by Ibrahim Pacha
in the environs of Brousse, that the remains of the Turkish
army had joined the Egyptians, and that the conqueror
was foLowing up his success by directing a corps of
20.000 men against Smyrna.
The Augsburg Gazette of the 15th instant has the fol.
lowing of the Gth from Ancona :—" The arrests in the
Romagna, especially at Ravenna, continue ; many persons
of rank, and some literary men, have lately been appre-
hended. M. Vicini, an advocate at Bologna, has been
exiled. The French transport vessels in our port have at
length received positive orders to sail fur the Morea on
the 10th instant, to receive on board part of the French
troops in Greece." The salmi paper quotes Metalliques
Five per Cents. at Vienna on the 10th, 884-; ditto, Four
per Cents. 77 5 16.
Extract of a private letter of the 26ili ult. from Na-
poli di Romania :—" Two deplorable accidents have hap-
pened here this month. The Truite sloop of war, at
anchor near the coast of Attica, between Cape Sunium
and Long Island, broke from her anchorage, was dashed
upon the rocks, and lost. The crew were saved, and will

return to France on board the Perle sloop of war. At
the same time, a boat of the Acteon brig, manned by a
cadet and seven men, having been sent cut to procure
water at the mills near Napoli, was lost, with every man co
beard. For the last fortnight violent squalls from the
south and south-east have prevailed, which crust have
caused many losses in the Archipelago."
The JournulVague de la Cote d' Or says---" In
pursuance of orders from the Procureur du Roi, the police
have seized all the daggers, pistols with biyonets, and
canes containing swords or piket., they could tind in the
shops at Dijon. It is la mentak.ie to see to what an extent
these sorts of arms, forbidden by law, have been lately
