A man who was arrested at Lougtilivroufiu za tho
perpetrator of the double murder at Blackwall answered to
the description of Cooper in every particular, even to the
loss of the loft hand thumb; but it turns out after all that
he was not the man. The jury has returned a verdict of
wilful murder.

WESTMINSTER LLEC7 10N PETITION.
THIS DAY.

The hearing of the petition against the return of Mr.
W.,121. Smith as one of the members for Westminster was
resumed this morning before Mr. Baron Martin, in the
Court of Exchequer.

A New York states that the fascinating problem of
the navigation of the atmosphere is about to be brought
again before the attention of the public by an attempt to
cross the Atlantic from New York in a balloon, which enter-
prize is to be undertaken by Mons. A. Chevalier, an aeronaut
of extended European reputation.

Mr. Hawkins, in replying to the petitioner's case as-
serted that some of the witnesses who had been produced
in support of it were guilty of the grossest perjury —he
refereed more particularly to Charles and John Wheeler,
who, it would he found, were the originators of the
petition.

It is stated that all the patronage of the appoint-
ments in the Custom-house, hitherto exercised by members
of the House of Commons, Lord-Lieutenants, and others is
to be transferred to the Custom-house authorities, and that
in future the appointments will be given strictly according
to merit, and not according to influence.

Mr. Smi-h was then examined by Sergeant Ballantine—
He said ho resided part of the year in Herefordshire, and
was a magistrate for the county. He knew Mr. Blagg as
the petty sessions clerk at Watford. Mr. Isaac Newton
Edwards was Mr. Ragg's junior planer. In 1865 he
contested the representation of Westminster with Captain
Grosvenor and Mr. Mill. He found there was want of
organisation, as there had been no contest in the Conser-
vative interest for twenty years. In 1865 he determined
not to stand again for the borough, but representations
made to him in the early part of 1868 induced him
to change his mind. In 1865 he was introduced to Mr.
Henry Edwards by the Hon. Robert Grimston. He had
been connected with Mr. Grimston in the direction of a
public company. In the early part of 1867 he became
connected with the London and Westminster Working
Men's Constitutional Association, and at that time he had
abandoned the idea of standing for the borough.

Official information has been received at Black-
burn that the petitioners against the return of the sitting
members decline to furnish the particulars ordered of 6' the
notorious and systematic corrupt and unlawful practices'.
which they alleged in thopetition to have Leen carried on at
the recent election. That portion of the petition will, there-
fore, be abandoned. •

Convocation of the Province of York will (says the
Leeds Mercury) assemble in the cathedral city on the 23d
inst. for the despatch of business. "The deliberations of the
rev. representatives will, no doubt, at the present crisis, ex•
oite more than ordinary attention, and it is expected that
the subjects of discussion will include the Irishk Churcl
question and the Lugint94 guism cf tAt'itsAgeLlastibll
