The season is rapidly drawing to a close. The
ships now loading at St. Petersharg are the last
that will be despatched this season, for winter has
already set in, a telegram received by Messrs.
Wilson, Sons, and Co., Hull, announcing the fact
that the navigation between Cronstadt and St.
Petersburg is closed ; although, according to a
telegram received by Messrs. Brownlow, Lumsden,
and Co., on Tuesday, the communication with Cron-
stadt was still open. All the steamers loading
there were expected to leave for Hull or London in
the course of the week. Freight had on Tuesday
last fallen from 45s per ton to 20s per ton for tallow.
The Humber and Emperor steamers have arrived
at Hull this week, and the latter, as she has done
on many previous occasions, fully demonstrated
her seaworthiness. She brought a full cargo of
wool, flax, seed, and tallow; and Capt. Brown states
that on the 9th inst., being then on the way to Hull,
about 12 30 a.m., while in la*_ 56 20, long 4 50
east, wind variable, during a light breeze 4rom the
N.N.E, he observed in the distance a dark cloud to
the westward, which suddenly broke over the ship,
with heavy thunder,vivid lightning, and strong hail.
The lightning struck the ship on the foretopgallant-
mast truck, and then descended by the lightning
conductors over the ship's side into the sea. The
speed (91 knots) was reduced to half, and the vessel
examined, when it was found that, beyond the
breaking of the foretopgallant backstay, she had
sustained no damage, thus showing the utility of
lightning conductors on board ship. The owners
of the Emperor, Messrs. Gee and Co., received on
Wednesday a telegram stating that there were 12
degrees of frost at St. Petersburg. Messrs. Wil-
son, Sons, and Cc,. give a remarkable statement as
to the effect of the present civil war in Ame-
rica on the cotton market. The mail steamers
to Sweden, which have taken from Hull cotton to
Gottenburg in large quantities, have brought—the
Hero, 867 bales of American, and the Argo, 339
bales of American and 100 bales of East India cotton
from Gotten burg. More importations are expected,
the importers in Sweden preferring to take advan-
tage of the present high prices they can obtain in
England

Riga season is almost over ; the last steamer that
will be despatched from Hull this season will be
the Gertrude (Messrs. Pearson and Co.), on the 22d
inst. The Riga freights have during the major part
of the season been very good, but have declined
within the last week or two, owing to the scarcity
of goods. There has, however, been plenty of out-
ward freight at good prices.

to
the King of Persia, and had allotted for his mainte-
nance the cities of Meguesia, Lampsacus, and Myus, in
Asia Ai inor ; but it has never been certain whether he
was really a trai or to Greece, or only a pretended
scrvaat of her enemies. A late discovery probably throws
new light upon his character, and aids us to determine
this question. Two coins, struck by him at Magnesia,
have been identified by Mr. W. H. Waddington. They
show that he had such an authority that he
could strike his own money, a right allowed to
no Persian satrap, excepting on extraordinary °cart -
sions for the payment of troops, although conceded to
poweful vassals and to cities ; and one of them leads to
a far more interesting inference. The latter is in the
British Museum. It is remarkable as a plated coin,
being of copper covered with a thick coating of silver.
Ancient plated coins were intended to pass as
silver pieces. They aro in general either forgeries of
well-known currencies, as of Athens, or else they were
issued by authority, as seems to have been done by
the Tarentines, judging from their coins, dining the
war with the Romans. The coinage of Themistocles
could scarcely have been common enough to induce for-
gers to imitate it. The piece was, therefore, pro-
bably issued by him, and as the revenues of his terri-
tory must have been amply sufficient for his sustenance,
there can have been no reason but covetousness for recourse
to this expedient. Strange that alter so many ages a coin of
Themistocles should be unburied, to add weight to the evi-
dence against his honesty,—once 0 wok.

SHOCKING MURDER IN DRURY-

COURT.

Yesterday about three o'clock a shocking murder was
discovered to have been perpetrated at No. 10, Drury-court,
Strand ; the unfortunate victim being a little girl about 11
years of ag,, named Mary Ann Reeves, and the murderer,
it is supposed her brother, Richard Reeves, a lad of 17.
The unfortunate child, it appears, on account of the out..
do)r occupation of her parents, was usually left in charge
of the younger children, and early yesterday she was
seen in the court. Towards the middle of the day she was
nowhere to be found, and inquiries after her were set on
foot. A number of the companions of the poor little
child, searched about the neighbourhood, but without
success. Two boys named Carney and Lynes were
also engaged in the search, and when near
St. Clement Dane's Church, the brother, who had been
walking with them, told them it was no use looking about
for his sister, and directed them to go home and tell his
(Reeves's) father that he had strangled his sister in the
coal cellar, and that he intended to drown himself. The
lads, horrified with this intelligence, ran to the residence of
the lather, who was found in a stet) of intoxication in his
room on the second floor, and quite incapable to understand
anything that was communicated to him. As soon as the
other parties in the house heard the message young Reews
had sent h ane they proceeded to the cellar, and there the
poor child was found quite dead, w;th a piece of rope
tied tightly round her neck. In a short time after the dis-
covery of the murder, Mr. Allfrey, of King's College Hos-
pital, arrived, and he pronounced life to have been extinct
about four hours. The police took possession of the house,
and Rogers, 17 F, despatched a brother constable to the
station in Bow-street, in order that steps might be taken
for the apprehension of the lad Reeves. The father has
for years been employed by the tradesmen of Covent-garden
market in mending seives and baskets, and the lad usually
helped him in his occupation. Young Reeves is so well
known in the neighbourhood, that it is almost im-
possible for him to elude the vigilant search that is
now being made after him. He appears to be
a person of the most vindictive disposition, as but a few
days ago he attacked his mother with a knife, and very
severely injured her.

N o motive can at present be ascribed for the perpetration
of the dreadful crime.

The discovery of the murder has occasioned the greatest
excitement in the crowded neighbourhood of Drury Lane.
About half-past four the police succeeded in apprehend-
ing the lad Reeves in Carey-street, Lincoln-inn-Fields. On
being taken to the station-house, ho made a statement,
which leaves no doubt of his guilt. A photograph of the
prisoner was found in his father's room, which was at once
taken possession of by the police, and no doubt facilitated
his capture. He is diminutive in stature, and has the ap-
pearance of not being over fourteen years of age.

EXAMINATION AT BOW-STREET (THIS DAY).
The prisoner was placed at the bar of Bow-street Police-
ecm t this mrning, before Mr. Corrie, when
Mr. Burnaby, the chief clerk, read the charge against
him, which was, that he, Richard Reeves, of 10, Drury-
court, was charged with wilfully murdering Mary Ann
Reeves, aged 10 years, by strangling her with a rope.
The first witness called was the prisoner's mother, Mary
Reeves. She said—l reside at 10, Drury- court. I last
saw my daughter alive about 10 o'clock yesterday morning.
Her name was Mary Ann Reeves. I saw her last night;
she was then dead. The prisoner is my son-in .law. I
married his father, and I have had the care of him since
he was seven years of age. The little girl Mary Ann was
my own daughter.

Mr. Burnaby—Do you ask your mother-in-law any
questions ?
Prisoner—No; I ask her nothing.

John Lynes—l reside at No. 7, Drury-court. I have
been porter at an hotel. I know the prisoner. About ten
minutes to two I was standing at a lamp-post at the end of
Drury-court, when the prisoner came up and said he had
lost his little sister, and he asked me and Wm, Carney to
take a walk down the Strand to find her. We agreed to do
so, and went as far as the Pillars, opposite St. Clement's
Church, when he told us it was no use looking any further
for her, and said I was to go home and tell his father that
if he wanted Mary Ann he had strangled her, and that he
would find her in the coal cellar. The prisoner then left us,
when I and Carney ran to the house of the prisoner's father.
I saw the father, who was tipsy, and told him what Reeves
had said. The father stopped at the trap at the entrance
of the cellar, but did not go down the trap. I did so.
Mr. Darkin here explained that the cellar formed a por-
tion of the back kitchen ; when the trap door was raised,
any person descending had to drop into the place.
Witness continued—l went down and found the body of
the little girl lying upon the coals quite dead. There was
some small coal on her cheek. I took the body up and
carried it as far as the trap-door, when I gave it to Mrs.
James and Mrs. Griffiths. As soon as I got up Carney and
myself ran off to King's College Hospital.
Mr. Burnaby—Tell the magistrate whether there was
anything round the child's neck when you found her.
Witness—Ob, yes. There was a piece of clothes line.
The rope produced is like it.

LAW INIELLIGENCE—(This Lay.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
APPEAL - JUDGMENT.-WILKINS V. HOY.

This is an appeal from the decision of Vice:Chancellor
Sir John Stuart's dismissing the plaintiff's bill. And the
question raised is, whether there was an insurable policy
effected on the lives of the executors named in the testator's
will for £4,000, with the Albi- n Assurance and other com-
panies, and whether the trustees under the will wore liable
for misapplication of the money, the will declaring that
each trustee was to be liable for his own defaults only.
Mr. Maline, Q.C., and Mr. Southgate were heard for
the appellant. The Lord Chancellor, without calling on
the respondent's counsel to reply, in delivering judgment,
said that the trustees were completely protected from any
personal liability for the misappropriation of the trust funds
by their co-trustees, by the indemnity clause in the testa-
tor's will.

The Lord Chancellor affirmed t e decision of the Vice-
Chancellor, and dismissed the appeal, with costs,

POLICE .INTELLIGENCE.—(77.I.9 Day).

Mr. Corrie—Do you wish to ask the witness any ques-
tions ?

Prisoner—No, sir.

BOW-STREET.

THE CHARGE OF BIGAMY AGAINST a LADY.—Mr 4.
Barbara Wilson attended with her bail this afternoon to
meet the charge made against her, which was that the had
intermarried with Captain Le Hunt Wilson, her first hus-
band, Jonathan Gotobed, being then and still alive.
Mr. Sleigh attended for the prosecution, and Mr. Giffard
defended the prisoner.
Mr. Sleigh said on the lag occasion it would bo recol-
lected that the adjournment took place in order that some
person present at the first marriage might be produced to
identify the lady as the person married to Jonathan Goto-
bed. He had now that person present, and he should call
him as a witness.

William Carney—l reside at 7, Drury-court, and am a
carpenter's labourer. I have known the prisoner some
time. I also knew the deceased. I recollect seeing the
prisoner in Drury-court. I was with Lynes about two
o'clock. I said to prisoner " Hallo, Dick, let's go and
look for your little sister." We all three went up the court,
and when we got to St. Clement's Church prisoner turned
round and said, " It's no use going any further, Bill; if you
want to find my sister, tell my father he will find her in
the cellar, and that I have strangled her." Ho then went
away, and I and the last witness went to the father's place.
Mrs. James—l reside at 10, Drury-court. My husband
is a stage carpenter at Drury-lane. I know the prisoner
and the little girl. Yesterday morning, about half-past
nine, the little girl Mary Ann was last seen. About that
time I heard the prisoner call our, "Polly." She said,
"What is it you want P" He said, " Bring me the keys
of the back place down." She said, "Dick, I don't know
where they are." He said, "If you look on the table near
the back window you'll find them." Shortly after 1 heard
her say, " I've got 'em, Dick," and she went down stairs.
I did not hear her come upstairs. About ten o'clock I heard
Mrs. Reeves call out, " Polly, are you upstairs ?" I called
out, " No, she is not." I know she was missing about a
quarter to ten. I don't know anything more about the cir-
cumstance until the body of the poor child was handed up
from the cellar by the witness Lynes. I placed the body of
the child on a sofa which was in the front shop. The string
was tied tightly round the child's neck. There were two
running knots on the right-hand Bide of the child's neck.
The rope was here shown to witness, and she identified
it as the piece taken from the child's neck. The rope had
a loop at ono end, through which the other had been passed,
forming, when pulled tightly, a largo slip knot. I have
known the prisoner to quarrel with his sister about eating
the bread. I have also heard him threaten her.

Mr. Charles Henry Allfrey —I am at present house phy-
sician at King's C• liege Hospital. I was fetched yesterday
by the two boys Lynes and Carney to No. 10, Drury-court
there I found the dead body of a child. The rope was
handed to me, and I compared it with the mark on the
child's neck. It corresponded exactly, Death was clearly
caused by suffocation through strangulation. There were
no other marks of \ iolence on the body of the deceased.
Jemima Kedge, a girl about 18 years old, said—l live at
2, Chair-court, Ship lard. I know the prisoner. Yester-
day morning, about 10 o'clock, he came to me and said
"I've murdered my sister." I said, I can't believe you've
done such a thing," and he said " Yes, 1 have." He after-
wards said " Where's Lizzy ?" I told him she was up
stairs. He asked me to go up stairs and tell her he wanted
her. She came down stairs, and he asked her if I had told
her anything--and he then said he had strangled his sister.
I was going out when he said, " Good bye, I shall see you
again about six." I was afraid to tell anybody what the
prisoner had said. About half-Fast 2he came to our place
again, and said, " I can't rest, so I've sent two chaps to
to 1 mother what I've done.

Mr. George Hughes said—l reside at Brentwood, in
Essex. In 1848 I was acolite at St. Helen's Chapel at that
place. In August, 1848, I remember a marriage being cele-
brated between two persons named Jonathan Gotobed and
Barbara Catherine Morris. I seo both the parties now in
court.

Mr. Sleigh—That is the case, your worship.
Mr. Giffard—You will call the police-constable who took
the lady into custody.
Mr. Sleigh—Oh, yes.

Inspect or Mackenzie was then sent for, but before he
came into court Mr. Sleigh thought he had better leave
the case as it at present stood,

Mr. Giffard said his learned friend knew the best course
to pursue. In defending the lady against the charge brought
against her, he should show that the lady at the bar had
been made the victim of a most heartless conspiracy.
The whole charge against the lady had been got
up with a view of altering the dispositi n of
certain property, and ever since the marriage of the lady
had been the subject of the meet relentless persecution. The
lady and Captain Wilson, her husband, had lived on terms
of the greatest affection, and although it had been said that
he was moving in the prosecution, that was not the case.
The lady left Paris to meet a charge of conspiracy
that had been made against her, which at the last mo-
ment had been stopped in its progress for trial, and
the present proceedings were intended to remedy a mistake
that had been made on the first occasion, and he should be
in a position to prove that a compromise had been attempted
to be made by the prosecution. The prosecutor had in-
timated to Mrs. Wilson that if she pleaded guilty to the
bigamy they would withdraw the charge of conspiracy. He
felt that the prosecution was a most cruel piece of persecu-
tion. Mr. Giffard then called

Mr. Phillip Hathaway, solicitor and attorney, Wimbledon,
who said—l was professionally employed in this prosecution
by Capt. Wilson. I saw him personally in Paris about the
231 of October. I was telegraphed for. I saw Captain
Wilson's mother in Paris. Captain Wilson was under
arrest in Paris.

Mr. Giffard—At the instance of his mother directly or
indirectly ?

Mr. Sleigh objected.

Mr. Burnaby—Do you wish to ask the witness any ques-
tions ?

Mr. Corrie thought that the real prosecutor ought to
appear, and before the case was further gone into ho was of
opinion that the course he ought to take was to adjourn
the proceedings for a month in order to enable him to do so
Mr. Giffard said he would willingly agree to such an
arrangement.

Prisoner—No ; nothing.

Mr. Corrie—Then the case had better stand over for a
month. The lady, of course, will attend.
Mr. Giffard—Of course, your worship. I suppose her
own recognisances will be enough.
Mr. Sleigh—The same bail as last is now in court ; I
think that ought to bo taken.
Mr. Corrie—Very well, lot that be so. The case will
come before me again on the 14th of December.
Mr. Giffard—Suppose Capt. Wilson should not attend ?
Mr. Corrie—My present impression is that I shall dis•
miss the case.

Police-constable, F 96—Yesterday afternoon, about four
o'clock, I went in search of the prisoner. At about a quar-
ter to five, I saw him leaning on a post in Carey-street, at
the corner of Serle's-place. I went up to him, and putting
my hand on his shoulder, said, " I want you ;" he imme-
diately replied, " I know what for, I'll go with you—l did
it." I said " You are charged with the murder of your
sister, be cautious what you say, for what you tell me I
shall use in evidence." He then said again, " I did it ; she
aggravated me to it." I took him to the station, searched
him, and found a purse with three pawnbroker's duplicates
in it, nothing else.
Mr. Durkin said that was the whole of the evidence.

Mr. Corrie, addressing the prisoner, said you have heard
the evidence against you. I now have to ask you whether
you wish to say anything in answer to the charge, but be-
fore you do so, I have to caution you that what you do say
will be taken down in writing and used in evidence at your
trial.

Prisoner—•l won't say nothing.
The witnesses were then bound over, and the prisoner
was fully committed for trial for wilful murder.
The prisoner was then removed.
During the whole of the examination he exhibited the
greatest carelessness, and seemed to treat the whole of the
proceedings with the greatest indifference. He is rather an
intelligent-looking lad, with a fair complexion and light
hair. He was dressed in a brown frock• coat, tweed waist-
coat, and corduroy trousers.
The crowd outside the police-court was very great.

The steam line-of-battle ship Massena, carrying
the flag of Rear-Admiral Jurien de la Graviere, left
Toulon on Tuesday for Oran, where she is to take on board
the 500 men of the 2d Regiment of Zouaves, who hold
themselves in readiness to embark. The steam frigates
Guerriere and Ardente left Brest on Tuesday for Marti-
nique, where the vessels of the French division for Mexico
are to assemble. All the troops and stores wilt have left
by the 141.
