The Pacha of Scutari has sent a force of regulars

Tho Turks will doubtless succeed in subduing the

occupy the districts of Kuci and Piperi, and thus
enclose Montenegro within its rocky ►imits.

• THE MURDER AT BRAMALL.

The inquest on James Henderson, farmer, of
Bramall, who was shot while in bed on Wednesday
morning, was opened on Thursday evening by Mr.
Johnson, coroner, Stockport. Mr. W. P. Roberts,
attended to watch the case for the prisoner, James
Henderson, jun.
Jane Henderson said—l am daughter of the de-
ceased, and resided with my father at Hardy's
farm. He was 60 years of age. Two sons, and
two daughters, including myself, lived at home.
There were three men-servants, a boy, and a woman.
All slept in the house, except two of the men, who
slept in the granary. My father slept alone for the
last 14 mouths, in one of the front badroomi. My
brother James slept alone in the other front bad-
room, and he had done so for a few months. I slept
in one of the back bedrooms on the same floor, to
the left of my father's, and next to that of my
brother James. My mother and a married sist r
(Mrs. Earlam) slept in another back bedroom on
the same floor, to the right of my father's. My
brother Thomas slept in one of the attics, where
there were two beds. Tho granary adjoinad the
house, but there was no internal communication
with . I and my mother went to bed about 12
o'clock on Tuesday night, and at that time all the
other inmates of the house had retired except my
brother James. I went to bed as FOOll as I got into
my room, and fell asleep in about ten minutes. I
did not hear my brother James go to bed. When
I went upstairs I saw the kitchen door (the one
entering from the north) locked and barred. I did
not look at the front (the southern or main) door.
My "mother generally looked to the doors. The
front do r was usually opened every day, but I eln-
not say whether it was opened on Tuesday. My
brother James frequently stoppe 1 up after the
other, reading and writing ; and when went to
bed ou Tuesday night he was writing in the sitting-
ro ;m. My father went to bed between9boauntd two
Iu
o'clock on Tuesday nigh*. I was awoke a
o'clock on Wednesda morning, and the first thing
I heard was the noisy of footsteps on the stairs. I
heard several footsteps, and immediately afterwards
I heard my brother James open his`door and fire.
lam quite sure that I heard him open his door. I
only heard one report. I did not g 4 out of my
room ; but shortly afterwards my brothers and
the two servants who were sleeping in the granary,
and the one who slept with my brother Thomas
in the-attic, entered my room and told me that my
father had been shot. I cannot say how long it
was after I beard the report that they etme to
me, but it was shortly afterwards. I got up im-
mediately and went into my father's room. I found
bim lying on his back with his head on his pillow,
arid his arms outside the clothes. He was in the
same position that he usually slept in. He was
severely wounded in the face. When I went into

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 28th ult. have come
to hand. The editor of the Discusion had been
tried by the Special Tribunal on the Press, for
having published a seditious article, but he had been
acquitted. A telegraphic despatch received from
Rome announced to the Government that the
Archbishop of Burgos and other bishops had been
preconised in a Consistory held by the Pape—as
was announced some short time back. A. royal
decree enacts that an Academy of Moral and Poli-
tical Sciences shall be established. A. letter
says : " Rumours of a Ministerial crisis con-
tinue, and the adversaries of the Cabinet allege
that it cannot last to the 30th Oct., the day fixed
for the meeting of the Corte?. It is believed that
the Ministers intend to submit to the Queen a
series of measures which they consider indispensable,
and that if her Majesty should not approve of them,
they will resign. It is also believed that in the
council which will be held on Friday next, some
important questions will be discussed. It is said
that the Ministry is resolved that General Lahera,
Count de Balmaseda, shall replace the Marquis de
Viluma, as President of the Senate. He, it may
be remembered, wi s one of the generals spoken of
for the Captaincy-General of Cuba."

The session of the two Danish Chambers was
opened on Weine &ay at Copenhagen, by the
Minister of the Interir,r, in the name of the King.
No allusion was made to Holstein. M. Brunn has
been elected President of the First Chamber, and
M. Rottwitt President of the Second Chamber.

" The affairs of 80301.1, at least of that part
which lies between the Bosna and the Drina,"
says the Agram Gazette, " appear to be en-
tering upon a new phase. The fury and hatred
of the Christians, whether Roman Catholic or
Greek, are excited by numberless acts of op-
pression. • ,It having come to the knowledge of
the people that, a few years ago, at the time
when the Tanzimat was introduced into Bosnia,
the clergy, both of the Oriental and Roman Catholic
rites, had promised the government that the popula-
tion should pay the tax of one-third of the produce,
that circumstance has turned the ire of the public
against the priesthood of both persuasions. It was
but the other day when a Franciscan monk had tp
fly for his life from the fury of the populace, and
the Greek bishop is openly menaced with violence,
so that troops are hourly expected to arrive in the
Posavine, and especially in the Sandjsc of Tula, to
prevent an outbreak."

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 23.—1 n spite of the
weather, which was tempestuous, hundreds of ves-
sels were arriving for Black Sea ports, to take in
cargoes of the new grain harvest. The Jountal
de Constantinople contains a long article in
fence of Lord S:ratf;rd de Redcliffe against the
attacks of the Times.

WESTMINSTER.

ROEBERT.—Mar; Williams, lljay-looking young
woman, was placed at the bar before Mr. Paynter,
charged as follows :
_

Join Birch, eating-house keeper, 20, High-road,
Knightsbridge, said the defendant came to his house on
Wednesday evening to lodge, and in the following morning
absconded, taking with her a sheet and blanket. There
was no one else who could have taken them. His
daughter met her last night and asked her to accompany
her home, which she did, and then admitted the robbery,
and said she was willing to replace the articles. She
would not, however, tell where they were, and he gave
her in charge.
The daughter having corroborated the above,
Defendant said she would get bauk the things if any
one went with her, but refused to say where she lived
or could get the things from.
She was remanded till Monday.

ASSAULTING THE POLIIII3.—Ed ward Graham, alias
John Williams, 3, St. Ermin's-hill, Broadway, West-
minster, was charged with assaulting the police.
Robert White, 100 B, said he was on duty at a quar-
ter to ten on the previous night, in Tothill,treat, and
saw defendant with a-number of prostitutes obstructing
the footway at the corner of Dartmouth-street, and
causing a disturbance by shouting. He persuaded the
others to go away, but defendant would not, and asked
him what the b— he had to do with him, and struck
him on the side of the head, but not very hard.
As the constable was not much hurt, Mr. Payne sent
defendant to prison for seven days.

CURIOUS COINCIDENCE.

The announcement that the 60 passengers of the ship-
wrecked steamship Central America had been picked up
by a barque Elise, coupled with the fact that the Ham-
burg barque of that name is now due at this port, gave
strong crsdenci to the opinion that the latter was the
fortunate vessel. It proves, however, to have been the
Norwegian barque Elise, bound from Honduras to Eng-
land. The coincidence is remarkable, from the fact that
the Hamburg barque Elise and the Bremen barque Elise
were the ones that saved so many of the persons ship-
wrecked from the French steamer Lyonnais. The Bre-
men barque Elise, Captain Nordenbalott, was the vessel
that first gladdened the eyes of the mate's boat, contain-
ing 16 of those on board the Lyonnais, who, after aban-
doning the ship, had been tossing about the open sea for
six days.

The passengers were taken on board, suffering terribly
from exposure and cold. On the next day, in let. 40 deg.
50 m. N., long. 65 deg. 40m., the Hamburg barque Elise,
Captain Neilson, the one supposed to have saved the pas-
sengers of the Central America, was spoken, bound for
New York. Captain Neilson willingly consented to give
such as desired it a passage to New York, all but two
of those saved availing themselves of the offer, and being
brought safely to New York.
the agents of the Franso-American Steamship Co. in
this city properly rewarded the officers of the two
barques Elise for their services in saving and caring for
the passengers and crew of the Lyonnais. Capt. Neilson
was presented with 200 dollars in money and a splendid
silver trumpet, and his mate, William Dehn, received
50 dollars. The trumpet was a richly-chased and beau-
tifully-ornamented piece of work.
A similar present was made to Capt. Geo. Nordenba-
lott, of the Brennen barque Elise.
The name Elise proves to be a favourite in the north
of Europe, and there are several Norwegian barques
That
bearing it which have never come to this port. Th
three vessels bearing the same name should have bees
instrumental in saving
lives supposed to have been lost

by shipwreck, must make it famous

, Fresh complications are making
SWITZ ERIAND*
their appearance
in Switzerland, where the cantonal sovereignty is
openly resisting the Federal authority. Several
cant Ais have refused. on cfaffereut questions of se-
condary order, to obey the+ injunctions of the cen-
tral p3wer. In the canton. of Neufchatel, the go-
vernment, despairing of b.;ing able to overcome the
3 oyalists who have coalesced with the independents,
intend demanding from the people full powers to de-
cree a new electoral law. Int he town of Neufchatel, it
S
leas been compelled to dissolve the provisional ad min-
Astration of the bourgeoisie, which was arbitrarily in-
titituted after the events of e ptember, and to confide
the interests of the corporiiition to the constituent
council. The elections for the Federal representa-
tion, which are about to take place, may perhaps
produce a remedy for some of those difficulties,
which have a certain. degree ce: gravity.

MONTENEGRO.
We mentioned some days ago that the Pacha of
Scutari had advanced aaainat some tribes in Albania
which had refused to ;ay their usual tribute, and
That a band of Montenegrins had invaded the
Turkish territory with the view of rendering assist-
ance to the menaced tribes. Accounts from Cattaro
.of the 16th ult., with intellh.rence from Montenegro,
'do not confirm the news of this invasion, though
they acquaint us the into ations of Prince Danilo
were favourable to the Alb wian tribes. We learn
r that " the inhabitants of Basovich despatched a
deputation to Cettingue to, demand the assistance
of Montenegro against the !Turks. Prince Danilo
charged the Senators Ivo mu 1 Rake, and the Pope
4 Kussovac, to visit that coun try, and to assure the
k4uhabitants that he would fltrnish them with suc-

tour as soon as they should refuse to pay tribute.
The Pacha of Scutari has sent a force of regulars
to coerce the refractory tribes, and it is not probable
that Prince Danilo will now keep his promise."
The Turks will doubtless succeed in subduing the
tribes, and will then, it is said, take measures to
occupy the districts of Kuci and Piperi, and thus
enclose Montenegro within its rocky limits.

CRUELTY TO A et-ann.—Two respectable-looking '
women who appeared much distressed and agitated
entreated the magistrate's interference on behalf of a
child they had with them, who had been much neglected
and ill-treated.
The applicants said they lcdged in the same house
as the child, in Tuftoc-street, and as there was no land-
lady there they had considered it their duty in the
exercise of common hutuanity to interfere. The child's
father was dead and her mother had been married
again to a man named Cannor, a stoker at the House of
Lords. He was cootintrilly beating the child, who was
in a vary filthy and neglected state, and beat her severely
with a policeman's at: ap both last night and this
tnoining.
Mr. Paynter—Did you see the assault committed
Applicants—No. We heard the child's screams
which were very distressing.
Mr. Paynter—What is her age
Applicants—Only nine years.
Mr. Paynter—Has she any marks!
Applicants—Yes, Sir. She is beaten very severely.
The chill, who exhibitel the appearance of gross neg-
lect, was placed befors the magistrate, and on her
shoulders being bared, they exhibited considerable die-
colouration and contusioD.
Mr. Paynter—Have you examined the lower part of
her person
Applicants—Yes, her legs andi thighs are covered
with bruises.
Mr, Paynter—Does the mother in no way interfere
to prevent this ill-treatment of the child
Applicants—Poor creatur,•, she cannot. All she can
do is to cry. She is lying very bad on a sick-bed, and
is perfectly helpless. The child has been so frequently

treated that her senses are being beat out of her.
Mr. Paynter—Do you know what was the reason
assigned for beating her I
Applicants—The reason this morning was, that when
he came home to his breakfast the kettle did not boil—
he appears to forget that this is but a mere child, and
makes no allowance fur her tender age, which a father
should do.
Mr. Paynter immediately granted a summons against
the father without payment of the accustomed fee.

SINGULAR OPPOSITION TO A CLAIM FOR SEA WAGES.
—Mr. S.nith, master of the ship Sea Star, attended be-
fore Nlr.Selfe to answer a claim of a seaman named Scott
for wages due to hitn for a voyage from Singapore to
London at 31. a, month.
Mr. Stocidart apys red for the complainant, and Mr.
Smith for the defendant. .

Mr. Stoddart having stated the case,
The evidence of tho e•implainant was to the
effect that he and some others of the crew signed
articles to go to Shanghai, and that the vessel went to
Singapore. The captain was not present when they
signed the articles, and it was alleged by him, com-
plainant, that other places had been introduced in the
articles which were not there when they were signed.
At Shanghai seven of them asked for their discharge,
which wei refused by the captain who said they should
all go before the consul. They went there, when after
an examination before him (tl6 consul), he, believing
the articles were regular, had them all sent to prison.
lie was there a month, at the expiration of which time
he was sent on board with his hands handcuffed behind,
and he remained in that position 18 hours. Some time
after the captain promised him that if he would go to
work again and behave himself like a man he would not
deduct his wages from Singapore.
Mr. Selfe said that the captain bad no right to keep a
man in custody out of gaol.
The agreement bttweea the captain and the complain-
ant from Singapore to London having been confirmed
by a wituese,
Mr. Smith put in a claim for expenses for the main-
teeance of the complainant while iu prison and for de-
duction of wages while there.
Mr. Solfe said that the law did not allow the first
claim, and that the captain said he would nut deduct
wages if complainant behaved himself well from Singa-
pore.
Defendant admitted there were now three in prison
at Shanghai for the same offence at that of complainant.
Complainant wai allowed 181. 9,.

LORD _J.. RUSSELL AT SHEFFIELD.

Lord and Lady John Russell, with three of their
Cl2ildran, arrived in Sheffield on Thursday evening,
his Lordship having accepted an invitation to pre-
tido at the annual meeting of the ragged school on

the following day.
The noble lord met with a very hearty reception.
'rho Town-Council met yesterday at 11 to present
an address, voted at a special meeting on Monday,
to Lord J. Russell. Before his lordship's arrival
the Mayor addressed the Council, stating that he
had received from Earl Granville, now in atten-
dance on her Majesty at Balmoral, a reply stating
that her Majesty graciously consented to receive a
deputation of the Town-Council to present an ad-
dress on the occasion of her visit to Earl Fitzwil-
ham at Wentworth-house.
It was then resolved, on the motion of Alderman
F. Hoole, that a loyal address be also presented on
the same occasion to his Royal Highness the Prince
Cmsort.

S'-.orcly before half-past 11 Lord and Lady John
Russell arrived at the Council-hall, and were re-
ceived with much cheering. On their appearance
upon the locnoh of tho aldermen the cheers wero
loudly renewed.
The Town-Clerk then read an address welcoming
Lord J. Russell's first visit to Sheffield.

Loa' J. RUSSELL (loud cheers)—Mr. Mayor, I
thank you and the members of tho corporation for
th-) kindness which has prompted the hearty wel-
come that you have given me on my visit to the
borough of Sheffield. You may bo confident that
I shalt continue to be the advocate of civil and ra-

ligiOus freedom, of social progress, extended educa-
tion, and constitutional reform. The spirit of the
ate, Vie union of statesman favourable to progress,
and the enlightened opinion of the people have
enabled me, among others, to carry to a suc-
cessful issue many important measures. The
twenty years from 1828 to 1848, beginning with
the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts and
'riding with the repeal of the Navigation Act,
were remarkable for progress without revolution,
while in the last of the years I have mentioned
we had in many continental States revolution
without progress. Let us hope that in the future
we may witness the same spirit of improvement ac-
companied with the same reverence for institutions
hider whose shade the nation has enjoyed so large
an amount of liberty and happiness. It is impos-
.

siSle to abstract on-r
minds from the events which

buve recently afflici ed our Indian empire. A revolt
of the most treacherous character, accompanied by
murders of the most savage atrocity, has filled us

with horror and indignation. Yet -amid these ter-
rible sceues it is permitted to us to hope that if, in
restoring our dominion, energy is combined with a
deliberate plan of action—if the sword of Justice

is not separated from her balance—if in providing
for the future government of India we can recon-
cile our duties as Christians with the most entire

sr-ligioui liberty, and a benevolent rule with the
firm assertion of power, we may preserve to Great
Britain and to civilisation a fairer and more secure
