LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE dS,

We copy from the Times of this morning a letter
stated to haVe been addressed by Lord COCHRANE to
the PACHA of EGYPT, at the moment his Lordship
quitted the. British Channel on his voyage to Greece.
His Lordship grounds his interference in the contest
between the PACHA and the Greeks on the priv,ilege
which the former claims and exercises, of receiving aid
in various modes from Neutral States : and on the
inhuman traffic which he carries -on in Christian slaves,
and the cruelties which disgrace his Government.—
After exhorting him to humanity, and the exercise of
acts for the promotion of the civilization of his people
—towards which objects his Lordship tenders his
assistance—he warns him that if, on the contrary, he
continues his present proceedings, "'Then," says his
Lordship, " my companions and myself cast the
" gauntlet down, and will contend against you. Quit
" the classic soil of Greece—cease your burnings, im-
" palings, and' enormities—and release your Christian
" slaves."—These are the objects, then, for which
Lord Coettßatee will contend : and truly the cause,
which he has undertaken is a glorious one, and de-
serving of dui support of the whole civilized world.
The energy, gallantry, and known address. of his
Lordship, will, we predict, speedily alter the state of
Greek affairs. He is consummately skilled in that.

Greeks and their enemies ; and he pOssesses more,

The Paris Papers' of the 20th, and the Mile of
the following morning, reached us last night,

of the Revenue of the first five montha of 1824, 1825,
and 1826, by which it appears that the Revenue of
1826, during that period. (weeded that of the Care-

case of a final arrangement between Russia anti the
Porte, the Russian troops on the Pruth will be sent
to co-operate with the army of General YERMALoFF,
in subduing the savage tribes which inhabit the
southern parts of the Empire ; and it is also stated ►o
a short article from Russia, that when the Empet°'
NICHOLAS announced to the garrison of St. Pelee`
burgh that his Ultimatum had been accepted by the
Porte, instead of. satisfaction being evinced, the
officers and soldiers maintained the most expressive
silence.

The .toile copies from the Genoa Gazette, a

The Dutch Papers of Tuesday, which were also
received last night, have no political intelligence of the
slightest interest. The following are extracts :

Liege, is being converted into a great glass manufactory, in which
'bout 1,000 workmen will be employed.

It is with great regret we have to mention, that the
accounts received in town from the manufacturing
districts are of Avery gloomy character. The tempo-
rary demand which had recently arisen for goods ap-
pears to have ceased, and every description of manu-
factured articles are offered on lower terms than at any
Preceding period: We subjoin 'two paragraphs from
the Manchester and Glasgow Papers, received yester-
day, which are calculated, to excite considerable un-
easiness :

atANCHEsTia, TUFADAY.
" The market to-day has been had, and things are expected to
Pt worse. The most gloomy rumours and surmises ate afloat,
relative to money matters; and it is known that unless a sudden
Old prosperous turn opens upon some , respectable houses, they
must go, as others before them have gone. Yarns are lower;
%warm yarns, which have lately fetched 14d., may now be
I,,sught at 13V. for cash. Calicoes are also at decreasing prices
ity Sd. less than last week. Fustian*, nankeens, and prints, are
4t a stand—no demand."

" GLASGOW, TUESDAY.

"We regret to state that commercial affairs are still depressed
ol of a cheerless aspect ; the number of unemployed operatives
continues to increase—distress and want are marching with vast
'hides amongst classes above the rank of common labourers. In
°know and its suburbs there 19,000 to .20,000 weavers, and in
Other parts of Lanarkshire 9,000 to 10,000 more."

We have great pleasure in announcing, that accounts
have been received from the Gold Coast, which lead
to the belief that Captain CLAPPERTON has reached
ik L
katoo, the capital of the Sultan BELO, and that
°e has thereby completed one of the chief objects of
the expedition, which was to establish a communica-
tion between the country of Soudan and the sea coast

An article from Florence, dated June 6, states that

'nandere of European Naval Squadrons, immediately
1° set at liberty a great number of Merchantmen de-
tained in that port, but that it has even had a great
'natty of them conveyed to their destination by the two

The farmer" complained that they could hardly reim-
hntse themselves for the labour bestowed on their fields ;
they also complain of the beer, which was so bad
that the consumption decreased. Better beer, at a
cheaper price, would, they thought, increase the con.
44Inption, and be 'favourable to their interests by a
c°lTesuonding increase in the consumption of corn.

A very curious question has been started by a
Mornitig paper,. relative to the steps necessary on the
Close of the General Election, to constitute the new,
a get)uine and reii Parliament. For this purpose, it
lg said to be necessary, according to HATSELL's

book of high authority, that the Parliament should
have sat, deliberated, and passed one Bill ; that is,
that it should have had one Session,—for otherwise,
in case of the demise of the Crown, not the Members
recently elected or now electing, •but the last dksolved
Parliament would have 'l6 assemble, and the Whole of
the elections would be nugatory and void.

•witch
could alluding to the possibility of an event
could render such a proceeding necessary, but we
should
. not have mentioned the subject at. oil
-had not other Journals done so. We shall only
add, that if the law • now stands as laid down in
Mr. HATSELL'S book, from which we subjoin the
following extract, it appears proper that it should be
altered when Parliament meets, to prevent at any
future time the occurrence ofathe confusion which
might arise on such a contingency..
" There is a very extraordinary provision made, for the meet-
ing of Parliament, by the stetute of the 6th Anne, ch. 7, s. 6,
viz. That in case there is no Parliament in being, at the time of
the demise of the Crown, ' that has met and sat,' then the last
preceding Parliament shall immediately convene, and sit at West-
minster, as. if the said Parliament had never been dissolved.' rhe
same provision is made, and with the same expression, that has
met and sat,' by the Regency Bill the sth of George 111. chap.
Q 7, sect. 20. The construction of this expression, ' that has
met and sat,' hes always been understood to be Parliament, Psrlisent, of
which a session' has been held ;' and to constitute a session,"
it has been held, that an Act of Parliament must have passed both
Houses, and must have received the Royal assent. James 1., in
his commission for dissolving the Parliament, in 1614, says,
Sed, pro eo quod nullus.regalis, cisseneus, ant responsio, .per
nos preestita fuit, nullunz Parlianzentum, Iler aliqua sessio Par-
habuit ant tenuit existentiam.' And in compliance with
this construction of the law, and to obviate those difficulties,
and that confusion, which must arise on the meeting of a
dissolved' Parliament, even though another Parliament should
be actually elected and returned, provided this Parliament
had not met and sat,' i. e. had not, passed a Bill which
had received the Royal assent; it was thought prudent, in the
years 1754, and 1768, for the Parliament to meet " imme-
diately' on its election, and to pass a bill, in order to constitute
session.' And indeed the confusion would be such, and the con-
ltruction put upon these words, in the midst of that confusion,
by those persons who shall happen to be interested in
the assembling of the old' or new' Parliament, would
be so different, that, whenever I have considered this
question, I have been surprised that an act of Parliament is not
immediately passed to obviate all these difficulties ; and to snake
it clear what ought to he done, if the event of the demise of the
Crown should happen, either during the election of the new Par-
liament, or after the election, but before their meeting, or after
their 'meeting, but before a bill should be passed, so as to consti-
tute it a legal session.
" It appears from the Journal of the House of Commons, of
the 92d of December, 1698, that in a bill for frequent calling
of Parliaments, which had passed the Lords, and was then de-
pending, but was afterwards rejected, there was a clause, ' That
it should be understood to be a Parliament holden, if it be as-
unnbled, although it happen that no act or judgment should pass
within the time of their being so assembled.' "

" The Session is never understood to be at an end until a
prorogation; though, unless some Act be passed, or some judg-
ment given in. Parliament, it is in truth no Session at all.—Blach-
stone, vol. i. p. 186."

THE FUNDS.

CITY, Twelve o' Clock, this Day.

The heavy appearance of the English Funds still continues, and,
if any thing, seems on the increase. The unfavourable accounts
from the country, the alarm caused by the report of a large de-
ficiency in the Revenue for the current quarter, added to the
!peculators for a rime having been sellers, have caused the Consols
to suffer a further fall ; they opened at 79i, but immediately were
depressed, and went to 79j, and for a few minutes were i,
sellers; the former is now the price, but the market is not strong.
In the South American Funds, although little is doing, the market
seems firm.

OLD BAlLEY—(hits DAY.)
CHARGE OF MURDER.

Ann Brown, aged-60, stood indicted for "the wilful murder of
Elizabeth Brown en the 7th of June, in the parish of St. Giles.
Mr. Baas opened, and Mr. Awnams stated,' the rase. He
said that the prisoner was wife of Charles BroWn, who keeps
a coal-shed in Queen-street, Seven-dials ; he was only't 5 years
old. 'and.she. bO. • The child • that Was murdered was en illegiti-
mate daughter of Charles BroWn ; it was only' three years old.
The prisoner consented to have it in the haute, and treated it as
her, own; never manifested- any ill-will towards it until the day
before the murder was committed, Whet, • she treated it with in-
difference. He then called the folloWing witnesses:—
Elizabeth Edwards, a widow, knew the prisoner between three
and four mouths; attended her as " charwoman, to light the fire
and clean the stairs ;- remembered Wednesday, the 7th of June ;
saw the prisoner in her bed-room in the morning. She came
into the room where witness had lighted the fire. Witness said
I have a pain in my head ; prisoner replied that is bad. There is
a little room where the child slept--witness went in there; it-was
then asleep. The husband of prisoner was their dressing himself
in his bed room. Witness then left the house and returning shortly
afterwards found prisoner poking the fire. Witness noticed how
dull the tire was; prisoner said the water will be boiled time
enough; asked the prisoner if she should fetch some butter, as
there was scarcely any; prisoner said there was quite
enough. Witness left the house at twenty minutes to nine;
heard of the murder at half-past nine; noticed the prisoner
to be very low for the three weeks previous; saw her at Marlbo-
rough-street the same day.
Cross-examined by Mr. LAW—Eight o'clock was the hour ap-
pointed for witness to attend on prisoner ; she was there a few
minutes before—yet prisoner, looking at the clock, said witness
came too late. Prisoner was very kind towards the child during
the four months it was in the house; prisoner used to mope for two
or three weeks before—had always the ammeter of a humane
person. Witness had mentioned to other persons bow low and
gloomy the prisoner had been.
Thomas Price, examined by Mr. Awl:Amt.—Occupied a part
of the same house wish prisoner; knew the room in which the
child slept; it was the back room ; lived about a year and ten
months in the same house ; saw the child' on the day before the
murder ; heard Mrs. Edwards going np stairs on the 7th of June ;
soon after she went off, prisoner came down stairs, and cried out
" Charles what have I done ?" ' Charles, the husband, was then
in the shop. Prisoner repeated it a down timer ; Charles asked
if she had cut her fingers. Charles then passed out of the shop
up stairs, to his own room. Witness said, " For God sake, what is
the matter ?" at the same time followed Charles up to his room ;
met him coming out, tearing his hair. Witness went into the
room ; Charles followed, and exclaimed, " For God sake look at
my baby !—O, my. child ! 0, my child !" The chili was
lying on the door, having its throat cut : witness went down stairs,
met the prisoner with her hands, shoes, and stockings bloody,
muttering something ; witness followed her into the front room,
prisoner said, " where is my child, what have I done ?" in a
wild manner. Charles came, in and said, " Ann, what have you
done, you have murdered my baby!" prisoner kept saying, "where
is my child ? what have 1 done?" Charles embraced prisoner, who
fell ou the sofa as if fainting : Charles began to tear his hair, and
prisoner appeared in such a state as to excite fear that she should
lay violent hands on herself: witness stood there until the officers
came, they took her off; saw her afterwards at Marlborough-street ;
she appeared in the same state ; on his first entrance into the room
where the child was, he saw a bloody knife in the hand of Charles,
who took it out of a sink that was in the adjoining room ; be did
not observe any difference, in prisoner's behaviour before that time.
Crass-examined by Mr. Putrues—Prisoner passed through
the street, exclaiming what have I done : before he knew any
thing about it, she made the discovery herself.
Sarah Howard examined by Mr. ANDILIEWS—Knew the pri-
soner these seven years; she was always very kind to the child;
remembered the day before the murder; saw the child playing with
a favourite dog, that used to draw a little car; the child en-
deavoured to call the attention of the prisoner to the dog,
but the prisoner remained indifferent, and would take no notice;
on the 7th of June the husband came to witness's house and
brought her over to her owriroom; saw prisoner exclaiming, what
have I done? witness asked prisoner what she had done, she mails
no reply; the child was lying ou the door, the child was warm,
hut the blood was assisted in dressing the corpse after-
wards—the head was nearly severed from the body ; I saw the
prisoner afterwards before the Magistrate;-.-could not say how she
conducted herself.

Crow-examined by Mr., LAW—Never saw the prisoner in k
passon--ehe used to take particular amusement in seeing the
child playing with the dog.
3. Bigg, overseer of St. Giles's in the Fields, recollected see-

.ing the prisoner at the workhouse on the 7th of Juue. She watt
then in a strait waistcoat, by the tireta4g with teveral others in
a wait— vittoess-vroducetilfrikfter oriltiliation, which he re..
ceived from the magistrate itiMarlhoirougb-street.
Mr. L-aw objected to it, 'Wit 'related not to she child in WWI -
ilon—it was accordingly withdrawn::
Jonethitn'l.idyer Was, at ten minute". past nine, on the 7th of
June, at the'firiadurr's house.. The beadle came after him—he
took the prisoner into custody. She cootintied to 'exclaim "what
have I done?" Wituees took her to' the watchhouse..—ehe asked
**yorel times where *as barchild?—saw ths jacket put on her.
Cross-examined brAir:"Pntitare,:—When he first dame to the
room where she was, there were two persons holding her by the
shoulders.

John Bartlett, a bead's in St. Giles's, wu at the prisoner's
house on the 7th of June; found a bloody knife on the floor;
took it to the watch-house.

Samuel Furman, an officer, took the prisoner to Marlborough-
street on '7th June. lie asked her, in the name of God, what
induced her to do it. She replied, that it was done in a mo-
ment, and she was sorry for it. lie asked liar where the child
was, she said that the child was sleeping in the bed, and she took
it out and cut its throat" with a carving knife. She complained
very much of a person narnid Bentley, and anOther who lived, op-
posite to her, taunting her fir having no children of her own, and
also respecting her husband's infidelity.
Elisabeth Clear, the mother of the murdered child, stood up,
but her feelings were so overcome that she could not answer the
questions put to her. She was a well-looking girl, seemingly
about 20 year* old. After much difficulty she said that the pri-
'loner had always allowed her access to her child, and had behaved
very kindly towards it.
''This-was the case for the prosecution.
Ilenry Angelo, for the defence, examined by Mx. Law.—
knew the prisoner for 80 years ; she bad been brought up in his
family u an under nurses -maid ; she had been at one time i►t a
state of derangement, and had attempted to drown herself; she
had always conducted herself humanely.
Cross-eximined by Mr. BARkY.-14 a fencing-nuu►ter.;, pri-
sonar had lived 20 years in his mother's family; her present ap-
pearance was the same as when she had been deranged.
Mrs. Bayley examined by Mr. Pinil.lrs,—ltemembered the
prisoner being very ill for a long time, and being in a very de-
sponding way; Prisoner on that occasion threw herself into a bath
in the garden; she had been for 3 month' in a desponding state;
used to mope about through the garden ; witness was *tire, pri-
soner had been then in a state of derangement.
Dr. Bayley said that the prisoter should not be entrusted
with children, on which the prisoner was accordingly sent out of
her situation as nursery-maid,
The Ju►y here interposed, and said that there was no occasion
for calling any further evidence, as WO were satisfied.
The LORD Cum, BARON said, that it was quite evident that

the mind of the prisoner was then in a disordered state; and if
the Jury were of that opinion, they should acquit her of the charge
of murder.
. The Jury, without hesitation, Maned a verdict—Not Ouilty
of Murder, as tke act was done in a moment of insanity.
