BRIGHTON-TUESDAY.

Shortly ofter nine o'clock this morning the Dowager
Lady Lyttelton ordered the carriage, and directed the
attendants to drive to the Pier. The Prince of Wales
and the Princess Alice were in the Royal carriage, but
the weather was too hazy for the royal infants to be
taken out. On arriving at the saloon their Royal
Highnesses were takes out of the carriage, and the
Prince of Wales and his sister walked to the outer plat-
form of the Pier, where they amused themselves for
above half an hour by running about. On returning to
the carriage the Prince seemed much struck with one
of the towers, and, of his own accord, stopped to look at
it for a few moments. The Dowager Lady Lyttelton
led him to the carriage, and, on seating herself, took him
into her lap. A strong mist was falling at the time, but
it did not prevent them from taking their accustomed
airing on the cliffs. The playfulness exhibited by the
royal children was exceedingly interesting to a great
number of persons on the cliffs immediately opposite the
Pier, who seemed very desirous of obtaining admission
to the Pier; but during their Royal Highness's prome-
nade no one was allowed to go on. The Prince wore a
black silk velvet pelisse and a leghorn hat and feathers,
and the freshness of the sea breeze imparted additional
bloom to his countenance.

NEW COURT.

(Before the RECORDER.)
MINT PROSECUTIONS.—The Recorder was occupied
during the entire morning in the trial of persons of
uttering counterfeit coin with a guilty knowledge. The
following were convicted for this offence, and sentenced
to imprisonment, with hard labour, in the House of Cor-
rection :—Por 1 year,
Edmund Speechly ; for 6 months, G. Smith ; for 3
months, W. CawsQy.
William King, J. Thomas, and
Harriet Thomas was indicted for stealing a breast-pin,
value 51., from the person of William Grey.
It appeared that the prosecutor was walking near St.
Paul's, when he was accosted by the prisoner, who
snatched the pin from his bosom.
The. prisoner, having been convicted last year of a
similar offence, was sentenced to ten years' transportation.
She swore vehemently upon hearing the sentence.

GUILDHALL.—(THIS DAY.)
This morning Mr. Smith, a surgeon, in Moorgate-
street, was summoned at the instance of Messrs. Robin-
son and Co., pianoforte makers, in the same street, to
show cause why he should not return an instrument,
which had been lent for hire for a period, as they al-
leged, of six months.
A professional gentleman appeared for the defendant.
Mr. Cooper, of the firm of Robinson and Co., said that
the pianoforte in question had been lent for six months,
at the hire of a guinea a month, with a proviso that if,
at the end of that period, it should be purchased by the
defendant, three guineas should be returned. The value
of the instrument was fifty guineas. They (Robinson
and Co.) had been referred to a Mr. Goold by the de-
fendant, but that gentleman had, since that reference
had been given, himself taken out proceedings against
Mr. Smith ; and he had also informed them that Mr.
Smith had executed a bill of sale, to some individual, for
his household effects. The complainants, under these
circumstances, were very naturally anxious as to the
safety of their property ; and as the defendant would
neither pay the hire nor return the instrument, they
were obliged to have recourse to those proceedings.
The solicitor for the defence was of opinion that the
matter was out of the jurisdiction of the court. If he
had been properly instructed, the case, as he would
state it, would assume a very different aspect. The
hire was, according to Mr. Smith, for twelve months,
and not six, as had been stated by Mr. Cooper.

HOP INTELLIGENCE.

MAIDSTONE.—The hop-picking is now commenced
at most places; where they began last week, they
almost all come far short of what they were called.
The hops are now coming into good order for pick-
ing, and we shall have some very good hops, but few
that will be fine in colour.

TICEHURST.—The crop in this neighbourhood is
very partial. Some grounds being likely to produce
from eight to twelve cwt., and others not more than
two cwt. per acre. Where the picking has com-
menced, the hops come off short of what was antici-
pated, and the opinion in the best informed quarters is
against the duty.—Maidstone Gazette.
MAYFIELD.—Hop picking in this parish has become
general—they come short in most instances; indeed, I
have not heard one case where they do not fail; they
will come short one-third, and the samples must be
indifferent, the hop itself being full of vermin. There
has been some pockets sent off during the week. I
have not heard of any sales being effected.
RYE.—The hop-picking has now become general,
and the growth is anticipated to produce quite an ave-
rage crop. From the great number of persons em-
ployed the oasts are constantly overpicked, so that in
many of the gardens the pickers are not allowed to
work more than three-quarters of a day.
STAPLEHURST.—The picking, which had begun
here, has been stopped, owing to their being of worse
quality then expected. The crop will not even come
up to the low estimate made last week.
TUNBRIDGE.—We cannot give any accurate notion
of what may be the picking here, the gardens being
so "platty."—Sussez Advertiser.

ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, SEPT. 16.—There
has been a very good attendance of buyers in the market
to-day, and the demand for flannels has been brisk at
former prices. There is no change in the wool market
—the demand steady, and prices firm.—Manchutcr
Guardian.
STATE or TRADE.—Although the commercial ac-
counts received from India by the last overland mail
were not ♦ery satisfactory, they were better than had
been generally expected, and have exercised a rather
beneficial effect upon our market. Nearly all descrip-
tions of goods (with the exception of printing cloth,
which is rather heavy) have been in better demand
during the last two or three days; and, in some cases,
higher prices have been obtained. The yarn market is
rather quiet ; but prices are steady. Manchester
Guardian of this day.
SOUTHAMPTON, SEPT. 18.—The Tweed, Royal Mail
Steam-packet Company's ship, Capt. Sharp, arrived here
at 10 A.m., this morning. She brings 155 oz. of gold
dust, and 1,193 oz. of silver. On the 26th of August a
destructive fire, at Guadeloupe, destroyed the Custom-
house and fifty-five houses ; loss estimated at 30,000 f.
We believe that the Tweed brings no other news of im-
portance.

RAILROAD TO AMIENS.

-------- -
We may now congratulate the Boulonneis on the
complete success of their railroad. 'Without any ex-
pense of publication, or any difficulty whatever the
whole sum of thirty-seven millions and a half, has
been taken ; the Company has a legal existence by a
Notorial Act ; the Minister has published in the Ma-
niteur a notice of the line; the conditions upon which
it will be granted can be secli at the Minister's office ;
and we have no doubt that, so soon as the necessary,
formalities can be arranged, the Directors will termi-
nate their agreement with the Minister, and com-
mence operations. As there is no other Company in
the field, no diffiultics can arise, and the railroad to
Am'ens, we say, will be open to the public in July,
1846, if not early in the sprirg of that year. Thus
closes all that long catalogue of falsehood, misrepre-
sentation, jealousy, and hate, which has marked the
conduct of our neighbours in this affair, and which,
so latelyd as last week, exemplified itself most sillily
in distributing through the City and on 'Change, in
London, the most absurd attacks and tales against
the lines, the expense of construction, and the little
interest it would produce. How mean and little is
such conduct, and how it must annoy the parties to
find it not only useless, but really beneficial, to what
it would destroy ! Such inevitably is the result of
blind passion, and the parties are laughed at and pitied
for their weakness. What a moral triumph also is
it to M. Adam and all those whom the enemies of the
town have abused and vilified! How gratified must
they feel in having continued the even tenor of their
way, conscious of the innate righteousness of their
cause and the conviction of its ultimate success, and
thus see all their labours crowned by the perfect ac-
complishment of their wishes. May they live long
to witness the effect upon the prosperity of the town.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1844.

At the last weekly meeting of the Repeal Asso-
ciation, Mr. O'CosTNELL—as appears by a report in a
morning Contemporary—took The Sun gravely to
task, for recommending that he should for a time
abstain from agitation. With all due deference to his
better judgment, we still persist in that recommenda-
tion, and we think we can perceive indications, even
in the Hon. and Learned Gentleman's own speech,
that he will not lose sight of it. For we hear of no
more monster meetings—no more proposals for simul-
taneous gatherings—no more ardent appeals to the
Passions and prejudices of the people ; there are
merely to be al few Repeal dinners given—quite as a
matter of course—in honour of the Liberator's escape
from the stringent embraces of the Richmond Peni-
tentiary ; and then he will, no doubt, close the cam-
paign for the season, and set out for his mountain
home at Derrynane. As for the projected scheme of
the Preservative Society, this is a matter quite in
embryo as yet ; it may, or it may not, be carried
into execution ; but, at any rate, it will require
no inconsiderable time for its full development.
Long before it can he matured and brought
into active operation, Sir ROBERT PEEL will
have explained to his " faithful Commons "
the nature of his Irish remedial measures ; and we
conceive, therefore, that we are justified in our belief
that for some months to come, the agitation for Re-
peal will be carried on in a languid and decorous
spirit, to be revived, however, in all its original in-
tensity, should the Premier's plans be such as to dis-
appoint the just hopes of the sister country. A
word here, as respects Mr. O'CONNELL'S new
project of the Preservative Society. his object in
originating this aristocratic confederacy is of
course that it may act as a check on the unruly
passions of the masses, and control their movements,
should they be too rapid, or made in a wrong direc-
tion. This is no mere notion of our own, for the
Hon. and Learned Gentleman himself avows that he
intends his new Society to act as a sort of House of
Lords—that is to say, as a curb on the blind, head-
strong impetuosity of the people. Yet, strange to say,
this same people—whose feelings, he thinks, now re-
quire rather a curb than a stimulus—are the same
whose patience, subordination, docility and exemplary
forbearance he has been daily praising for the last two
years and upwards ! Not less than forty-five monster
meetings, he tells us, have been held, yet not a crime
has been committed—not the slightest symptom of a
wish to break the public peace exhibited! Surely
there is some little inconsistency here ! What need
can a people, thus patient, orderly, and strictly ame-
nable to discipline, have of a Preservative Society ?
They constitute in themselves a Preservative So.

VERDICTS OF INSANITY.

At an inquest held by Mr. Wakley, M.P., on the
body of a woman aged 22, a sempstress, who had
taken an ounce of oxalic acid, and who, although she
continued to suffer the most excruciating agony until
her death on Saturday last, did all she could to pre-
vent her life from being saved, and would not
swallow voluntarily tea or coffee, lest some remedy
should be mixed with it, the Coroner said, the de-
termination of some persons to die was wonderful.
Some time since he held an inquest on a woman in
Clarendon-square, who had swallowed the strongest
preparation of sulphuric acid, who had lived nine-
teen hours afterwards, suffering the direst corporeal
torment—for her tongue, palate, throat, and stomach,
must have been seared as if a red-hot iron had
been passed over them—yet she never acknow-
ledged what she had done—kept the act a secret from
her medical attendants ; and it was not till after death
that the truth was discovered. " Gentlemen," con-
tinued the Coroner, " the present is one of those cases
in which there is no evidence of insanity, though
some persons think that the very act of taking poison
is an evidence of unsound mind. Such an opinion
is very dangerous, for a person having taken poison,
and labouring under its effects, might commit murder,
and be on such an opinion acquitted on the plea of
insanity. It will be found that persons who commit
suicide adopt the means best calculated for the end
they have in view. I think it is a very dangerous
practice for coroners' juries to come to the
conclusion that persons who destroy them-
selves are insane. The very same jury may be
called to the Old Bailey, and placed in very great
difficulty in trying a man for murder when insanity
would be pleaded, because no motive for committing
the murder could be proved, and divers eccentricities
could be shown in the previous life of the murderer.
They might be told that they had just before returned
a verdict of insanity in a case of' suicide committed
without motive, having taken that as well as previous
eccentricities of character into consideration, and
they might be told that want of motive and eccen-
tricity in case of murder should weigh equally in their
minds, and induce them to record a verdict of insanity,
I want to get rid of the dangerous practice of return-
ing verdicts of insanity when the evidence does not
fully justify them. On the other hand, we are told
that there should be a verdict of self-murder where
there is no evidence of insanity, with the view of pre-
venting suicide by the dread of burial at midnight,
without funeral rites, and in an unhallowed grave—a

AMERICAN ICE.-LYNN'S WATERLOO
HOTEL, RANELAGII-STREET, LIVERPOOL.

WILLIAM LTNN respectfully calls the attention of the nobility,
gentry, hotel-keepers, and others, to this beautiful and cheap article
of importation. It is in Bohol blocks, weighing from one to two hun-
dred pounds each, and is as clear as crystal ; it can be sent to any
distance, with very trifling waste ; and is used for a variety of pur-
poses that ERglish Ice cannot be applied to.
W. L. has imported some PROVISION SAFES front Anterien, for
the use and comfort of Private Families—

The ItErRIGERATOR, or (as sometimes designated) a Miniature
Ice-house. This is a ■ew and useful article of furniture, rapidly
coming into ass in northera and southern climes; it is designed to
keep cool and sweet such dishes in the culinary department as are
accessary to be protected ham the heat of the weather during the
summer season. _ _ _

The Refrigerator is now considered an indispensible article in the
economy of every good housewife ; the quantity of food it protects
from the weather will more than pay the cost of the article in
ono year.
They may bo seen in operation, in their various valuable and useful
purposes, at the Waterloo Hotel, and families can be supplied with
them on moderate terms.

DONCASTER RACES.

DONCASTER, MONDAY.

The races not having terminated until within half an
hour of the departure of the mail, we have only time to
state that they were better attended than usual on the
first day at Doncaster, and that the weather, of which
the indications in the early part of the morning were
anything but encouraging, was as favourable as could
have been desired. The St. Leger continues to excite
great interest amongst all classes, increased in no slight
degree by an intimation that Ithuriel walked sound this
morning, followed by his immediate re-appearance in the
betting ; very few, however, entertain any hope of his
" pulling through." The Devil-to-Pay pulled up lame
this morning ; and Valerian is declared not to start.
The races commenced at half-past one with

CEMETERIES.

We were much pleased the other day on visiting
the cemetery at Nunhead, between Peckham and
New Cross, Deptford, to observe the progress making
in the erection of the neat, but elegant and at-
tractive, chapels for the use of this spacious sepulchre,
and which do much credit to the talents of the archi-
tect, and will form prominent features in that neigh-
bourhood.

In going over the grounds we were struck with
several very chaste monuments, and especially the
one recently erected to the memory of the late Mr.
Figgins, the extensive type-founder, and who, for
many years, we believe, took an active part in the
proceedings of the Corporation of London, as one of
the members of the Court of Common Council.

We hope in the ensuing session of Parliament at-
tention will be given to this important subject, and
effectually prevent the unwholesome practice of
burying in churches and churchyards in the very heart
of our densely-populated metropolis.
