THE CHOLERA AT GATESHEAD AND

NEWCASTLE.

(rim OUR ovIN coxitriSPONDENT.)

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, JAN. 1.
The advancement of the disease at Newcastle, notwith-
standing all that has been done to retard its progress, is
remarkable. The report of this day states that there are
no less than 57 new cases, 11 deaths, and 108 cases re-
maining. There are, it is true, 14 recoveries, and the
following note is appended to the report :—" Of the new
cases, 25 are in the township of Byker ; and of the 108
under treatment, 38 are in that township." One hundred
and eight cases remaining under treatment ! This is no
doubt appalling. But take the 38 from it, and there
are in fact only 70 of them actually in Newcastle. Do not
for a moment imagine that these are all cases of spasmodic
or malignant cholera. Ido not believe that more than a
score of them are cases of that description. The people
appear to have taken the advice of the Board of Health,
and to have run, as they recommended, to the dispensary
and the parish hospitals, when they had either diarrhoea or
any bowel complaint. This will account for a great many
of the 57 new cases, every such application being set down
as a case of cholera.

The disease is not nearly so virulent at Gateshead as it
was. By this day's report there are just twenty new
cases, nine recoveries, and one death ! There are still,

however, 94 cases remaining under treatment. Let us
glance for a moment at the progress of this di!ease in Gates-
head. It made its appearance for the first time this day
week : the same evening I announced to you that four cases
had occurred. In the interval of seven days, which have
since elapsed, there have been 251 cases and 75 deaths!
This in a population of about fifteen thousand.

As I have no hesitation in stating that the sudden and
tremendous attack of cholera on the inhabitants of Gates-
head was to be attributed chiefly to the excessive drinking
which took place there on the eve of Christmas-day, and
on Christmas-day itself. so I have no doubt the favourable
state of this day's report, exhibiting only one death, is
owing to the precautions which were taken to prevent the
same intemperance. The public-houses in Gateshead,
and they are remarkably numerous in so small a place,
were all closed by ten o'clock last night, and have been all
prevented from selling liquor to-day. It would he well
indeed if such precautions were taken more frequently and
more extensively. I observe it is stated in the Courier
that some families have left Gateshead to avoid the pesti-
lence. I know of only one family having quitted it for a
time, and they probably would have done so if the cholera
had not broken out at all.

FIRE.—A fire broke out this forenoon in
Chair-lane, a narrow, blind, lane, lying between shipyard and
Shire-lane, Temple-bar. One house was consumed, and the
flames were communicating to the adjoining houses when we
went to press. Four engines from the Sun, the
British, the Hand-in-Hand, and the Norwich Union,
were on the spot, and owing to the excellent
arrangements of the police, the engines were in full
and powerful play, notwithstanding that the narrowness and
crowded state of these close courts and alleys rendered the
operations of the firemen very difficult.
PEDIGREE.—One of the prosecutors at the
Lewes Assizes, whose name is " 3futtori," lives upon a.small
freehold estate in this county, which has been in the umnter.
rupted possession of his family for no less than 700 years. The
name was originally " Mouton," his ancestors having come
over to this country from France ; and the estate is to this day
called "Normans."—Brighton Gazette.
AMERICAN OPINION OF WHITE

BALL DRESS

A rose.coloured gaze de Turin dress, over white gros de
Naples ; corsage a la Maintenon ; it is cut very low, without
shoulder-straps, arranged before in a drapery which forms a heart
and pointed at the bottom in front. Short sleeves, with jockeys
composed of three white satin folds, disposed in dents de loup,
a single row of trimming of the same kind terminates the sleeves
which is ornamented in front by a sprig of exotics placed upon
the trimming. The front of the skirt is trimmed a l'Espagnole ;
that is, it is slashed at regular distances on each side leaving
the under dress visible. A bouquet of exotics, with their foli.
age, is placed on each slash, coiffure a la Sevigne; the hair is
parted so as to display the whole of the forehead, and dressed in
cork-scrcw ringlets, which fall as low as the throat; it is quite
flat on the crown of the head, and turned up tightly in a low
double bow behind. A chaplet of flowers, to correspond with
the dress, surrounds the bow, and a gold bandeau, of the an-
tique form, ai.orns the forehead. Such of our fair readers as
have visited the Museum of the Louvre, will recollect that this
head-dress is exactly copied from a charming miniature of
nine. de Sevigne. Necklace and earrings, gold and pearl.

year, viz.:—

400,000 loads of Timber.
V. 00,000 loads of Deals.
The I,ss msy he estimated as follows :-
400,0000 loads of Timber, at 455. per load (the difference
of duty between Colonial and Baltic Timber)
200,000 loads of Deals, at 5 s. per load (the difference
of duty between Colonial Deals and 13altic Timber) .500,0 0
Additional Price paid for Colonial Deals, the prices at
Quebec and Miramichi last year being from 6 . ss.
to 71., when Balt c white Deals (which approach
nearest in quality to American Deals, although su-
perior) were 31. 15s. per Petershurgh standard hun-
dred—say 200,100 loads, at 15s 150,000
Extra Freight paid from British America,-600,000
loads, at 20s 6(10,000

£2,15. ,0!'0

For what is this enormous annual sacrifice made? It
cumin be to employ a greater number of British sailors,
becatve it is notorious that 600.000 loads of wood can he
brought from Canada with f-wer seamen than from the
Baltic, in consequence of the Canadian ships being much
lager, and not requirrig so na,ny men in prportion to
their tonnage a-, the Baltic ships I believe it is done to
prevent Canada from demanding what would interfere
with Russia, viz., encour 'gement to cultivate corn, hemp,
flax, &c. If our Tory rulers had not legislated wi,h a
view to reduce this country to the condition of a Russian
Polish province we should not have sacrificed revenue ,nd
sailors to obtain inferior and costly wood from our own
colonies, when their climate and soil are capable of ren-
dering us ind,pendent of Russia, and providing an asylum
for our redundant population, who are more likely to pro-
cure a livelihood a- agriculturists (from their pr,vious
habits) than as wood cutters. You perhaps will be sur-
prised at colonial deals paying only half as much duty as
colonial timber. This is done to pilliate a similar disre-
gard of British interests, with respect to Russian deals,
which do nor pay so much duty as Baltic timber by 50
per cent. For this and other derelictions of duty, I still
hope to see our Ex-Tory Ministers impeached by a Re
formed House of Commons, and remain, with great respect,
Sir, your most obedient servant,

A FRIEND TO BRITISH INTERESTS.
P. S. To avoid the exorbitant duty on B dtic timber
ships are now chartering to load at Memel and return to
England by way of 13. itish America This does not look
as if our Treasury wanted tnonev.

A communication had been made hy the Secretary of State

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, T WEL VE O'CLOCK.

We are without arrivals this morning, either of foreign
mails or ship letters, consequently we have no political
news as yet to communicate.
The evconil reading of the Reform Bill being postponed,
has ra.her surprised the public ; but being only from
Thursday to Mond.ty, with every prospect of the success of
the second reading, it has not damped the spirits of the Re-
formers, nor has it had any eff•et on our Funds as yet.
The public are anxionaly looking to the measures which
Count Orloff will adopt, in regard to the signing of the
treaty of Holland, with respect to which various rumours
are afloat. The opinion now is, that he will not sign, but
act as a mediator, in regard to the modifications : but this
is only report.

KINGSTON A -SIZt-..5, \ARCH 30.

CKIM. CON.—CORNEK AGAINST MILLS.
Mr. PLATT was for the plaintiff: and Mr. AnoLruirs
for the defend int.

This was an action brought by Mr. Corner, who is a
prisoner in the King's Bench, against James Barnaby Mills,
an attorney in Hatton-garden, to recover damages for
criminal conservation with his wife.
Mr. Corner was married to his wife in 1821, at St.
Martin's church, Westminster. and lived with her, up to
the time of the discovery of the adulterous irate course, in
great harmony and happiness. They had seven children,
one only of whom is living, an infant of a year old. Mr.
Corner, in consequence of his pecuniary difficulties, was
indebted to Mr. Mills for his services as an attorney, arid
for money lent, in the sum of 5001. He resided in the
beginning of last ye ir in a bout belonging to Mr. Mills,
No. 3, Holly-place, Hampstead. About 111,,rch last he be-
came a prisoner in the King's Bench; his wife continuing
to occupy the house in Holly-place. Whilst in the Bench
he received a letter from the defendant, regretting that he
was incarcerated, but a few days after Mr. Mills lodged a
detainer against him for his debt. According to the evidence
of a Mrs. Osland, who described herself as the wife of a '
shoemaker in Redcross-street, Mr. Mi Is was all this time
carrying on the adultery at Holly-place. She deposed to
Living seen him in bed with the wife of the plaintiff.
On one occasion at the house there, and on
another occasion, she stated, she had seen him in
his office in Hatton garden, taking the most inde-
cent liberties with Mrs. Corner. She never acquaint-
ed the injured husband of these facts, till he himself ques-
tioned her on the subject, and compelkl her to reveal
what she knew. It did not appear how Mr. Corner's
suspicions were first awakened, nor were any witnesses
called to support the testimony of Mrs. Osland. She was
an acquaintance of Mrs. Corner, rind occasionally called
upon her. This witness was closely cross-examined, but
persisted in her story. No witnesses were called for the
defence. The Jury. after deliberating a short time, found a
verdict for the plaintiff, giving him 1001. damages.
The business of the Crown Court terminated last
night, and it is expected that the case at Nisi Prius
will he disposed of this evening, or to morrow. Nothing
of public interest remains.
London, England, 1832-03-31

EVENING DRESS.

It is of white crape over white satin ; the corsage is low, but
not so low as they are worn in general—rounded at the top,
and setting close to the figure ; a rose-coloured satin stomacher
of a small size, and ornamented with white silk acorns, forms
the shape in a very graceful manner. Beret sleeves, with blond
lace jockeys ; there are two falls arranged in the form of a shell.
The skirt is trimmed with a single deep flounce, disposed in
round plaits, and surmounted by a rich but light embroidery
in white Boise silk. In the centre of the flounce is a rose-
coloured satin point, corresponding with the stomacher, and
ornamented in a similar manner with white silk acorns. The
hair is disposed in cork-screw ringlets on the forehead, and
twisted in a Grecian knot behind. A bouquet of white ostrich
feathers, in the centre of which is one of rose-colour, is placed
behind the knot : the feathers mingle with the hair, and
droop in different directions over it. Brooch of poarls and
emeralds.

From the statement of the prosecutor, it appeared th it

information of the circumstance at the Baok of En land,
and requested, when any of them was paid in, that tie

FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.

COLONIAL TIMBERS.

TO THE EDITOR f)E THE SUN.

Sna,—lf you can spate room in your columns for a few
remarks in reply to the letter of " A Longsbore Trades-
m ,n," in the Times newspaper of the 24th instant, I
shall consider myself obliged.
The correspond,nt of the Times states that the ships
engaged in the Canada and New Brunswick trade last year
were 1,3:39, and their tonnage 383,069, evidently with
in intention of leading persons unacqu ,inted with the na
ture of our colonial timber trade, to suppose it is of great
value to us. I will say nothing about the immense loss
we sustain in being compelled to apply colonial wood to
purposes for which, from its want of durability, it is n,,,
adapted, but will merely point out such part of the n;
Finn loss as can be accurately computed and expressed
fizures. If the tonnage be as stated by " A Longsho•t,
Tiadesman," and I have no doubt of the truth of
statement, we may conclude that not less than 600,000
kids of wood were imported from British America last

YORK ASSIZES, MARCH 28.

Hannah Watts was indicted for having feloniously,
unlawfully, and maliciously
administered to, and caused
to betaken by, one Hannah Bowden, a quantity of arsenic,
with intent to kill and murder the said H mnah Bowden.
Mr. DtJNDAS stated the case. Hannah Bowden (the
person whine life the prisoner was accused of having at-
was a married woman, living apart from her
unsibpat tad)
husband,
with her father, a person of the name of Hall,
at Delph, in the west riding of Yoik. The prisoner for-
merly lived at Delph, but had lately lived at Portwood. in
the county of
hand of Hannah Bowden. On the 25th of October last
Chester, in the same house with the bus.
a parcel was regularly transmitted by the carrier, from
Manchester to Delph, to Hannah Bowden, at her father's
house. Upon opening it, it was found to contain a piece
of print, cut Out fur a child's frock (Hannah Bowden had
a child), and a quantity of small sweet cakes. Mrs. Bow-
den, her child, and other members of the family, ate of the
c ikes, and all of them were in conse uence visited with
the symptoms of having taken poison Happily they all
recovered. q
'hire cakes were afterwards subjected to an
analysis, and were found to contain arsenic. To connect
the prisoner with the offence, it would he proved that the
prisoner
the bar, on th, 21st of o,:tober, purchased a
quantity of arsenic with the avowed intention of placing it
for nits;
that on the same day she was seen to make a
~umber of small cakes ; and that on the 24th she had left
.
her work and been absent all the afternoon on some bum-

nest, the nature of which she would not disclose. On t'
afternoon the parcel, afterwards delivered to
Bowden, was left by a young w,inan at the house of
innkeeper at at Mies Batting, about eight miles from tl.
;dace where the prisoner resided.
Some witnesses were cal ed, who proved that part
the Learned Counsel's opening which related to the Pa'
chase of poison by the prisoner ; but the evidence offer,
to prove the identity of the prisoner with the female wl,
left the parcel at Miles Platting was so unsatisfactory tic -
the Learned JUDGE stopped the case, and di:ected an Ac
quittal.

LAUNCESTON ASSIZES, MARCH 28.

Peter Matthews, aged SO, was indicted for the wilful
murder of Grace Andrew, at Caleniek, in the parish of
Kea, in this county. on the 20th of January, 1830.
William Andrew—l live at Caleniek On Wednesday,
the 20th of January, I went to bed between eight and
nine. My wife put me to bed after we hail said our
prayers. No one lived with us. I am quite deaf with
my right ear. I always sleep on my left side. I went to
sleep very soon that night. I awoke in the night ; but
finding my wife was not in bed, I went to the head of the
stairs. I called my wife, hut got no answer. I then
proceeded down stairs, and found the door open ; I went
out at the door, but finding no one, I returned and knocked
at the doors of John Bray and John May, t fling them my
wife was not to be found. They both came down; we
then proceeded, with a light, into a little room where we
used to sit, and there I saw my wife lying on the ground.
My wife chiefly kept our money, and generally carried it
with her in her bosom. We had a 301. Bank of England
note, and the rest was in gold. We always kept 50/.
When I last saw it, it was in a little parcel in a hag. In
the evening sonic of the Coroner's Jury made a search for
the money in a box or chest, the key of which my wife
kept, but they could not find the money. I looked in the
chest several times, but could find no money there. On
the Monday after, I had occasion to go to the chest t..
look for a pair of gloves ; upon opening the chest that
day, I found the money in a little hag, which was carried
to my master's by my brether or son-in-law.
John Br iy—l live adjoining Andrew's house. I was
alarmed in the night of the 20th of January by William
Andrew. I got up and went down stirs. Found Grace
Andrew lying dead on the floor. I knew the prisoner for
t
many years. I saw him at Calebirk two or three days
before at my father's hou,e, and spike to him.
John May-1 went into Andrew's house with him, and

has been in effect repealed, but many no less
sanguinary still disgrace the statute-book. The
severity of the law defeats itself; it is so sangui-
nary that it is not, and cannot be, executed. In
the-seven years previous to 1831, nearly 8,800
criminals were condemned to death, of whom
only about 400 were executed, or about one
in twenty-two. The chances of escape to those
condemned arc so numerous, to say no-
thing of the numbers who also escape
from the forbearance of prosecutors, or the leni-
ency of Juries, in consequence of the severity
of the law, that our penal enactments have a
tendency to encourage crime. The subject of
our criminal jurisprudence will doubtless be
taken up at an early day by a Reformed Par-
liament, and we confidently believe the period is
not distant when the praiseworthy object of the
above society will be obtained.
