MORNING, JANUARY 11, 130,

of her relatives, if she have any, have up to this period
made any inquiries respecting her. Her two orphan
children have been kindly received into the house of her
next door neighbour, Mrs. Ashlee.
It would appear that the unfortunate woman was ex-
tremely short of money at the time of her death, several
pawnbrokers' duplicates of recent dates having been
found amongst h-r papers, and her little bills—baker,
grocer, &c., due at the quarter, as well as her quarter's
rent to Christmas Vast, being unpaid. Hitherto she had
always been most punctual in her payments.
The following is a copy of the only document found
amongst the papers of the deceased, in the handwriting
of the accused, signed with his initials, and written in a
small neat hand :

" See Genesis, 4 chapter and part of 7 verse ; 1-salms,
1 chapter and 4 chapter,2d to sth verses, and 103 chapter
and 107 chapter, 6 to 22 verses ; 1 chapter, 16
to 13 verses ; Matthew, 6 chapter, 14 and 15 verses, and
31 to 33 verses ; Romans, 12 chapter ; Ephesians, 4 and
5 chapters. _

* The word men is generally used, but the sense is
meant for both men and women, because women could
not be properly put ; and we must, in reading the Scrip-
tures, not expect to be satisfied with so doing, unless we
endeavour to seek in our own minds for that spirit in
which they were written for our instruction. "J. T."

BALLYDEHOB PETTY SESSIONS,

(From the Cork Southern Reporter.)

IMPORTANT TO MERCHANTS AND MERCHANT SEAMEN
JAMES CARSON, ESQ., V. JOHN THOMPSON, MASTER
OF THE BARQL..3 ALHAMBRA.
JAMES ARCHBOJN V. SAME.

Mr. M`C. Downing appeared for the prosecution,
and said, the prosecutor, Mr. Carson, was a respect-
al le merchant of Dublin, and owner of the barque
Alhambra, then lying in the harbour of Crookhaven,
who appeared with great regret to prosecute the de-
fendant, who was up to a very recent period
the master of his vessel; but he felt that
it was a duty he owed to the commercial world, to
show persons in the situation of masters of vessels,
that they could not take advantage of the opportunities
which their situation afforded them to plunder their
employers. The charge against Mr. Thompson was for
larceny of a quantity of canvass, bags, coals, and pork,
at the Island of Ichaboe, to which place he commanded
the vessel from Liverpool, where she was provided
with every necessary of life for a nine months voyage,
everything in the way of comfort being provided by
Mr. Carson, end had it not been for the manner in which
Mr. Thompson had treated the crew, he (Mr. D.) could
say on Mr. Carson's part that he migh t have,heen induced
to forego the prosecution, but when he came down from
Dublin, and found 20 men out of a crew of 25 unable
to crawl from their hammocks, in consequence of gross
and negligent conduct, he naturally felt strongly upon
the matter, and was it not for his humane and unremit-
ting attention many of them must have lost their lives,
and when the defendant was asked by Mr. Carson for
an explanation of his conduct, his reply was, that he
would do as he pleased with the ship, and that Mr.
Carson should not interfere. To ascertain if a mas-
ter of a vessel could act in such a manner the com-
plaint was brought.
Mr. Carson was then examined by Mr. Downing,
and stated that he was sole owner of the barque
Alhambra, 350 tons burden ; that the defendant was
employed by him at 121. per month • that he supplied
the vessel at Liverpool with everything necessary for
her voyage, and amongst these was a quantity of
canvass, 600 bags, a quantity of pork, and a quantity
of cods, Khich were not in the vessel then, and that
Ile did not give any directions or assent to their
disposal.

The mate of the vessel was then examined, and
stated that the several articles were taken from the
vessel at Ichaboe by persons under the directions of
the defendant, and for which he received money and a
bill for 601.

The defendant, having been called upon for his de-
fence, stated that he was disappointed in not having a
solicitor attend on his behalf, and refused to make
any defence, save that he denied the jurisdiction of
the Court to inquire into the matter at all, it being
only cognisable to the Court of Admiralty.
The Chairman asked Mr. Downing if he could
show that the Court had authority.
Mr. Downing—l did not think it would be neces-
sary to show you any authority on the subject ; but
it so happens that I have one in point, the King v.
Maden, where the master of a vessel committed
larceny on six casks of butter at Sheep's Head, in
Berehaven, county Cork, and was subsequently tried
for the offence at the Winchester assizes in England.
Mr. Gall way— I was on the jury of a captain of a
vessel tried at Cork, about two years ago, for an offence
committed in the Mediterranean, for which he was
transported.
Defendant—Well, I'll make no defence.
Chairman—Mr. Downing, we'll hear the case of
the mate against Captain Thompson before we decide
on this.

The mate was then sworn, and stated that on the
9th of December, about a hundred miles off the Mizen-
head, the captain being drunk, seized him by the arm
and called for a cutlass or sword to cut him down,
which, however, was not given to him, and he seized
on a carving knife and put it up to complainant's
mouth, and swore he would run him through.
The captain having been again called on for his
defence, refused to make any, and again contended
the court had no jurisdiction to commit him.
The Court having required to see under what Act
they had authority,
Mr. Downing referred them to the sth and 6th of
Wm. IV., chap. 19, sec. 38, under which section they
had authority to act had the offence been even com-
mitted on the sea in any port of the world.
The magistrates conferred for a few moments, and
the Chairman said, it was with great pain he had to
deliver the judgment of the court, where a person
holding so responsible a situation, and of so respect-
able appearance was concerned. In the case of assault
the judgment was that the defendant do pay the sum
of 21. 103. to the Merchant Seamen's Hospital, and in
default of payment to be imprisoned one month, and
in the first case the informations tendered would be
sent returnable to the Bantry sessions or Cork
Assizes as the defendant wished, but bail would be
received if tendered.

The defendant refused to give bail or to pay the
fine, and committals having been made out, he was
committed to gaol.

EXPORTATION OF. DRAWBACR.—
toi•dit‘tif the treasury having had under attentive
consideration the representations which have been made
ey the several exporters of paper, of the inconvenience
sustained by them from an enforcement of the order
which requires an examination, by the Customs' officers,
of all paper previously to being shipped for exportation,
their Lordships are of opinion that it will be advisable
to modify the order under which the examination of that
article for export was placed upon its present footing,
and have given directions, on condition that all parties
intending to export paper in future, give notice to the
Excise officers, who will attend to take account of the
packing, in the same manner as in the case of the article
plate-glass for shipment—viz., that such packages shall
be exported without further examination, under certifi-
cate of the Excise, unless the Customs' officers, on their
being offered for shipment, shall have good reason to
anysuspect,fn
rad i
fronni information or otherwise, that there is
the transaction. The shipping searchers are
also directed, by this order of the Treasury, to attend
with particularity to the size, description of', and marks
on the packages ; so that, if any package be offered for
exportation without such certificate from the Excise of
its having been examined and packed in the presence
and under the supervision of their officers, they are in
each such instance to adhere to the existing regulation
of examining the contents of each case fully, previous
to shipment.
STATE OF THE HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES.—
The condition of the frame-work knitters engaged in
making stockings, gloves, drawers, and shirts, for such
is now nearly the whole extent of this once extensive
trade in the counties of Nottingham and Derby, is
inconceivably watched. We learn that a newly dis-
covered process in making stockings, by three separate
divisions of labour, by three separate hands, from three
distinct frames, is fast superseding the other methods
of manufacture. The agitation of the question of
frame-rent has already been in some instances detri-
mental to 'the interests of the workmen ; as some of the
hosiers and masters, affecting to be alarmed at the re-
solution of a public meeting recommending the journey-
men to keep a correct account of the frame-rent
stopped; have declined to take the frame-rent, but have,
instead therefore, reduced the wages in such a ratio, that
in some cases the bands have had deducted nearly
double the amount of the former charge for frame-
rent. The drawer branch, so important to this district,
continues very much depressed. The silk branches are
mended. In the silk glove branch, many of the hosiers
charge the frame-cent by the dozens produced,
which is tantamount to an abolishment of "rent,"
and being nothing else than,an abatement of wages.
The hopes that have arisen from the invention of making
scolloped edgings, having again aroused speculation, upon
this interesting subject all is in motion, but very small
quaitities of scolloped laces have yet been produced,
but when they are extended, there is every reason to
expect that the patentees will strenuously urge their
patent right. The warp lace trade is gradually im-
proving in all its branches. There is, however, no
dearth of Lands, the state of the other descriptions of the
hosiery and lace manufacture causing a sort of run upon
this branch, as the great body of workmen can work at
both manufactures, which are considered but as various
branches of the same trade.--Nottingham Review.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]--A NEVER-FAILING REMEDY
FUR ALL CASES OF SCURVY, SCORBUTIC HUMOURS,
AND SCROFULA, BY HOLLOWAY'S PILLS ♦ND DINT.
MENT.—EXTRAORDINARY CURL—Henry Hill, now a
mman to Lord 8., was lately discharged from the
Duke of D.'s iervice in consequence of his having large
scorbutic blotches all over his bands and face, to his
great disfigurement. For twelve months he was treated
by his master's medical attendants, but to no purpose ;
and the case was at last declared incurable, and he was
discharged. The poor fellow then, as a forlorn hope,
commenced using Holloway's Pills and Ointment,
which effectually eradicated the disease from his blood
in less than three weeks.—Sold at Professor Holloway's
Establishment, 244, Strand (where advice may be had
gratis), and by almost all respectable medicine vendors
throughout the civilised world. • •

MARKET NEWS.-(YESTERDAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

Full average supplies of English Wheat have been re-
ceived up to our market since Moseley ; hence the show
of samples of that description of GraM here was good.
The attendance of buyers was small, owing to which
the demand was extremely heavy, and it was only the
finest qualities that found purchasers at Monday's prices.
Foreign Wheat was a mere drug, but not cheaper. In
bonded Corn we heard of no sales. The supply of Barley
was rather extensive ; hence, the trade was decidedly
dull, and the rates had a downward tendency. The
Malt trade was inactive, and prices were with difficulty
supported. Upwards of 32,000 quarters of Oats having
come in from Ireland, the Oat trade was very dull.
Beans, Peas, and Flour without alteration.

Our market was again very scantily supplied with
Beasts, the general quality of which was inferior. Tile
few prime Scots, &c., on off. r, met a steady inquiry, at
fully Monday's quotations. All other breeds were a dull
sale, at barely stationary figures. Ihe arrival from
Scotland consisted of 120 Scots. The supply of Sheep
was limited; while the Mutton trade was firm, at full
prices. For Calves we had a somewhat active inquiry,
at an advance, in the rates obtained, on last market• day,
of quite 2d per Sibs. In Pig,, rather more business was
doing, at previous currencies. Mulch Cows sold heavily,
at from 161 to 191 5s each.

The demand for bags of last year's growth still con-
tinues active, at improved currencies. In pockets, old
as well as new, only a moderate business is doing., yet
previous rates are steadily supported in eery instance.
