UNION-HALL.--(THIS DAY.)
Elizabeth Garrett, a well-dressed female, was charged
before Mr. Traill with an intent to commit suicide, by throw-
ing herself off the parapet of Waterloo-bridge.
Mr. Wooden, of Francis-place, said he was passing over
Waterloo. bridge about ten o'clock last night, when his at-
tention was attracted by the extraordinary conduct of the
prisoner, who took off her shoes, and commenced singing,
dancing, and making a great noise, which induced him to
think that she was drunk. Suddenly, however, the prisoner
burst out into a violent fit of crying, and immediately jumped
on the parapet of the bridge, and was in the act of throwing
herself off, when witness and his friend ran to her assistance,
and was just in time to save her from jumping into the river.
In answer to some questions put to her, the prisoner said
"she was tired of her life; a villain had deceived her, and
she would see if there were not better inhabitants in the un-
known world." A policeman was sent for, and the prisoner
giveninto custody.
The prisoner gave no explanation of her conduct to Mr.
TRAILL, the Magistrate, who ordered her to find bail for
her good conduct in the sum of 20/. for three months.
The prisoner was locked up in default.

BRUSSELS, JULY 30.—A letter from Verviers of
the 29th July, says, yesterday about two o'clock in the
morning M. Louis Gouvy's manufactory of cotton-yarn at
Et Vaux was reduced to ashes. The fire broke out in the
ground floor, and in two hours the whole establishment was
destroyed, only some bales of cotton were saved. The
building and its contents were insured. The loss is estimated
at 100,000 francs. We regret to add, that two workmen,
brothers, who lived in the manufactory perished in the
flames.—The papers contain long articles on the differences
with ,?russia, in consequence of the heavy duty imposed on
Belgium, now in the territory of the States of the Customs
Union.—lt seems that the English swindler who pretended
to be a banker, embarked at Ostend on board a steamer for
London, six howl before the police avers arrived there to
arrest him,
