us nothing to remark upon. A very convenient disposi-
tion of things, and one of which we avail ourselves to-
day, to the extent of leaving' the two debates to the
judgment of our readers, with but one word of re-
mark, and that refers to a speech in the House of
Lords, which, like Sir Robert Peel's speech in the Com-
mons, was an exception to the dreary dulness of the
night's debates in both Houses-we allude to the speech
of the Duke of Richmond.' His Grace objected to the.
course of Sir Robert Peel's Government as tending
" bit by bit " towards free trade. Now, we. think that
the highest praise that can be rendered to any British
Government is that it gradually tends towards
free trade, in precisely that way in which .Sir
Robert Peel's Government tends, viz., by making protec-
tion unnecessary, but retaining it while any necessity for it
exists. To retain protection for any interest one day,
after that interest ceases to want protection, is 'to injure,
not to serve that interest ; to injure it .not merely. by the
effect of an' invidious distinction, but by destroying in it
the spring of enterprise. It is by protecting an industrious
commercial pursuit up to that point at which it can main-
tain itself by the utmost exertion, but not beyond that
point,-that the pursuit in question will be carried to com-
plete perfection. We do not, for example, consider that we
are too sanguine in anticipating a period not dis-
tant when England shall be a country constantly
exporting corn ; and when that time shall arrive
we have the opinion of the late Mr. Rothschild
for the conclusion-a conclusion to which, indeed, :r.
common sense would conduct without any autho-
rity-that England must absorb all the wealth of
the world. But we need not say that if the prices
of corn were maintained at an extravagant point,
by very high protective duties, the transition
to Continental prices could scarcely be effect-
ed, ' notwithstanding, or because of, a surplus
produce, but at the expense of general ruin, while it is
perfectly plain that without some protection, the agricul-
ture of the country, instead of-advancing, so as to enable
us to export, must rapidly retrograde. " The bit by bit"
tendency to free trade is, therefore, so far, from being re-.
pugnant to protection, that it is the necessary and whole-
some
sequel to protection. The most zealous advocates of
protection, and few have been more sincere or zealous
than ourselves, claim protection as necessary to augment
the productive power of the country. Well, when this
productive power has been carried to the degree that
competition may be defied, ought you not to throw away
the protection, upon the same principle on which the in-
fant's go-cart is hung up when it is able to walk ?

GREAT NORTH OF ENGLAND RAILWAY.—The rail-
way communication between London and Edinburgh is ra-
pidly approaching completion. On Tuesday next the line of
railway already formed will be extended from Darlington to
Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and on that day the Chairman of the
London and Birmingham Railway (Mr. Carr Glyn), and a
paiity of his friends, will dine with Mr. Hudson, the Chair-
man of the Midland, York and North Midland, and New-
castle and Darlington Railways, and a party of his friends,
at the Assenibly-rooms, in Newcastle. The entire distance
bettween London and Newcastle, upwards of 300 miles, will
be iiccomplished, it is calculated, in twelve hours, including
all stoppages. From. Newcastle to Berwick-upon-Tweed, a
distance of 60 piles, a line of railway has been projected, and
surY, eys made
.by the east coast, and thence to Edinburgh,
little more than 50 miles, a line is already in course of forma-
tion. On leaving the station at Euston-square, the traveller
pasSes 83 miles along the London and Birmingham Railway
to Rugby, thence 49i miles along the Midland Counties
Railway to Derby, thence 63,1 miles along the North Mid-
land Railway to Normanton, thence 234 miles along the
York and North Midland Railway to the Cathedral City of
Yotk, thence 45 miles along the Great North of England
Railway to Darlington, thence 27i miles along the Newcastle,
Daitlington, and Durham Junction Railway to Workington,
the ce 5i miles along the Pontop and South Shields Railway
(fo erlv the Stanhope and Tyne) to Brockley Whins, where
the line -diverges 'to Sunderland and Shields, and thence 6i
mils along the Brandling Junction Railway to Newcastle,
or then to Gateshead, on the south bank of the river Tyne,
where a magnificent station is being erected. Such is the
route from London to Newcastle, that will be available to the
pubßic by railway on and after Tuesday next. A more direct
lines to York from London has been projected through the
Eastern Counties by way of Bedford, Huntingdon, and Lin-
coln, which will shorten the distance by about 30 miles, and
pass over the most extensive plane in England, uniting the
rallies of the Trent and Ouse, by direct railway communica-
tiort with the metropolis.
ACCIDENT TO MR. PEER, THE SOUTHAMPTON
COACHMAN.—Last evening an accident of a dangerous nature
happened to the above well-known coachman, on entering
London. It appears he was driving his coach past Apsley
Hottse, about sib o'clock, at a gentle rate, when two omni-
busgs, which were racing against each other, endeavoured to
pass, him, the wheels of one of them came in contact with
the off fore wheel of his coach, the force of which precipi-
tated Mr. Peer off the box ; he fell upon his head on the
kerb stone, and was picked up quite insensible, and bleeding
profusely from the mouth and ears. He was instantly carried
to St. George's Hospital, when it was ascertained he had
received a severe concussion of the brain, and had broken his
collar bone and two of his ribs. He now lies in a very dan-
gerdus state, and little hopes are entertained of his recovery.
Mr. Peer is about fifty years of age, and has been many years
on the road.

NARROW EscArE.On Tuesday last, as Mr. Par-
ratt, of Chuich-street, Westminster, was about getting on
board the steamer Jasmine, at London-bridge, he unfortu-
nately fell into the Thames, and immediately disappeared ;
he, however, instantly rose up again, and held up his hands,
when Mr. P. Badger, barrister-at-law, of Cambridge-street,
Hyde-park, who was standing by, at great risk of being
pulled in, immediately went on his knees and held out his
stick, which Mr. Parratt caught hold of and held till other
assistance was obtained, when he was rescued from his
perilous situation, to the great gratification of all present.
THREE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-FIVE POUNDS IN
BANK OF ENGLAND NOTES DESTROYED BY FIRE.—On Mon-
day evening Mr. W. Skinner, a boot and shoe maker, carry-
ing on rather an extensive business in High- street, Stratford,
went with a 201. note into his cellar, for the purpose of depo-
siting it with several others (which it appears he kept in a tin
kettle) to the amount of 380/. ; when in the act of depositing
the 20/. note in question some person entered his shop, and he
left the cellar for the purpose of ascertaining what was
wanted, and on his return he found the whole of the notes,
amounting to 4001., in flames, and he only succeeded in
saving 151. It is supposed the notes were ignited by a spark
falling from the candle. Unfortunately the numbers are not
known, therefore, there is no probability of any portion of the
money being recovered from the Bank of England.—Essex
Standard.

A slight shock of an earthquake was felt at Stam-
ford, on Wednesday evening, about seven. Many persons
were sensible of the tremulous motion of the earth for ten
or fifteen seconds. It was accompanied with a noise like
distant thunder, and was by some mistaken for that pheno-
menon; but there is no doubt that it was- a convulsion of
the earth. At Tinwell, Ketton, Tixover, Duddington,
Cliffe, Apethorpe, Wansford, Collyweston, Easton, &c., &c.,
the shock was distinctly felt. In some of the above-named
villages various articles were displaced ; at a gentleman's
house at Easton, the bell at the outer gate was rung in
consequence of the vibration produced by it.--Stamford
Mercury.
SHOCKING DEATH OF AN AGED FEMALE FROM
DRUNKENNESS.—Yesterday, Mr. Baker held an inquest at
the King and Queen, Chapel-street, St. George's-in-the-East,
en the body of Mary Brown, aged 72, the wife of an old
naval pensioner. It appeared that the parties resided in Al-
bion-place, and that they were both equally addicted to ex-
treme intemperance. On Tuesday last they passed the latter
part of the day in drinking, and returned home about nine
o'clock intoxicated. The husband of deceased was just able
to ascend the stairs to his bedroom, but as she was attempt-
ing to follow him, her strength, impaired by liquor, failed her,
and she fell down several steps, and lay senseless at the bot-
tom, where she was obliged to remain all night, as well from
the injuries she had received, as from the incapacity of her
drunken husband to aid her. When he awoke, somewhat
refreshed, next morning, he discovered her condition, and
brought down his bed, and placed her upon it. Afterwards
he called a neighbour, and the assistance of Mr. Garratt, a
surgeon, was procured ; but from the first he saw that hers
was a hopeless case. However, he and his assistant attended
her until her death, which occurred next morning. He
was of opinion that the fall ruptured one of the viscera. Ver-
dict, " Died from the effects of a fall, happening whilst in-
toxicated."

ACCIDENT ON BOARD TIIE COMET STEAMER.—
Yesterday afternoon, between two and three o'clock, a fatal
accident happened on board the Star Company's steamer,
Comet, whilst moored off the Terrace Pier, Gravesend. The
steamer, it appears, had just been brought to, after a passage
from London, when the engineer, a young man, named
John Goble, set to work to clean the machinery; to enable
him to do this, he, with the stoker, imprudently got in
amongst it. hilst thus engaged the force of the tide against
the paddles in some degree moved the shaft. The stoker
immediately got out, and Goble exclaimed, " I shall get out
too, for I don't at all like it." He, however, continued work-
ing; and suddenly the tide with greater force set the engines
again in motion, when the brass head of the shaft caught the
unfortunate man, and jammed him with such fearful force
against the ironframing of the engines as to cause almost
instant death.

CRICKET.—The match between the Etonians and
the Marylebone Club was played in the Shooting• fields, at
Eto College, on Thursday, and terminated in favour of the
MarYlebone Club, with nine wickets to go down; the
Etonians not being able to stand against the true and
sharp bowling of Bayley and Royston from Lord's. The
batting of the Etonians was good, particularly on the part
of Mr. Coleridge and Mr. Hoskins ; but their scoring did not
equal that of their opponents, Captain Liddell and Mr. E.
Bayley.
In consequence of the alarming illness of the
Dowager Lady Gle.nlyon, the Duke and Duchess of North-
umberland were precluded from the honour of attending his
Majesty the King of Saxony when his Majesty visited the
gardens at Zion on Thursday last.
We regret to hear of the serious indisposition of
the Countess of Radnor. Her Lady-ship's state of health causes
the greatest alarm to her numerous friends.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

• OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Baron GURNEY and Mr. Justice WILLIAVLS.)
THE MURDER AT BATTERSEA.

RContinued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)
ichard Taylor, 203 D, examined by Mr. BODIUN—I
opened the door for the prisoner, and afterwards was placed in
the same cell. I offered him some bread and cheese, but the
prisoner said he was so agitated that night that he could not
eat any. He then said that if a reward were offered he should
choose his man to give himself up to.
Superintendent Bicknell, of the V Division, produced some
papers.
William Daniel Andrews, deceased's brother, said that his
sister's boa was so saturated with blood that he destroyed it.
He had, likewise, for the same reason, burned her white straw
bonnet. Her age was 45 years and three months.
Police-constable Langton produced the shawl and dress
worn by deceased on the evening of the 29th April.
William Connor, M.D., Battersea, proved the female's
death, and the cause of it. He should think, from the situ-
ation and appearance of the wound, that it was not inflicted
by herself.
The letters were then put in and read. (Such portions of
those letters as are fit for publication have already appeared
in our report of the examination before the Magistrate at
Wandsworth).
Mr. Wflainis then addressed the jury in a most effective
speech. He said, that in rising on behalf of the prisoner, he
was encountering a fearful responsibility, partly in conse-
quence of the fair, straightforward, and impassioned manner
in which his Learned Friend, her Majesty's Solicitor-General
had stated the case; and more, in consequence of the wit-
nesses called into that box (the brother and sister of the
deceased.) In consequence of the mental suffering, they
appeared to feel, it was quite natural that they (the jury)'
should turn with a feeling of overwhelming indig-
nation to the unfortunate man at the bar whom
they were given to understand was the cause of all that
suffering. But he (Mr. Wilkins) trusted that they would
bear in mind that the evidence produced had been wholly
circumstantial, and though the case as advanced for the
prosecution was barely possible, yet he begged to re-
mind the gentlemen appointed to examine into those
circumstances, that they must not judge of the inno-
cence or guilt of the prisoner from mere possibilities. Let
them examine the case, as stated by his Learned Friend.
The Learned Barrister then dissected the evidence in detail,
and contended that the words spoken by the deceased were
merely the unconnected ravings of a mind, weakened by
loss of blood, and mechanically uttering sounds which, be-
cause spoken by those around, vibrated upon her
ear also; for was it at all likely that if she had been
cut and injured by the man with whom she had
been passing the evening, her exclamation to
Hall, the toll-keeper, and to other persons, would have been,
"See, how some one has used me." He thought that great
caution was necessary in admitting the evidence of the coal-
porter, Cooke, who had so positively sworn to the identity of
the prisoner with the man who called, "Police, police !" on
the night of the murder. He wished particularly to
call their attention to this part of the case. The
little boy, Evans, who ran for the surgeon, to
the Chelsea Old Church, did not observe the witness
Cooke at the place he stated that he was standing at. He
did, indeed, see one young man whom he had never seen
again. How did this harmonise with Cooke's evidence ?
Ile thought the simple fact was—that Mr. Mullins, who
had also run to Chelsea for a surgeon, and who wore
a dark frock coat and a broad-brimmed hat, was the very
man who called " police," and whom the witness Cooke sup-
posed to be the prisoner. They knew that it was a feeling
with the lower classes to overrate and exaggerate
facts, where they were supposed to militate against
a man placed in the same situation, and charged with a
henious crime, as the prisoner was. The Learned Gen-
tleman concluded a powerful address, by imploring the
jurymen to lean towards the side of mercy to remember,
that though their erring judgments might fail, yet an
all-seeing eye would, if the prisoner were guilty, pursue
him, and an omnipotent -and an all-powerful and unerring
arm would punish his secret crime ; but that if they had
reason afterwards to repent of a too severe verdict, it would
be when repentance would be too late.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL waived his right of reply.
Mr. Baron GiTRNEy summed up.. In this, as in very
many other cases, they bad only circumstantial evidence be-
fore them, on which to found their judgment. It appeared
that the deceased had been for many years on terms of the
warmest friendship with the prisoner. The last act of her
life was the going with the youngest daughter of
the prisoner to her mistress's house, and the
first evidence they had was that of the person who
first observed her on her return home, and after the wound
was inflicted. The Learned Judge then read over and com-
mented upon the evidence. They must consider that the
account given by the prisoner of himself was that of a man
who had time (for several days had elapsed) to prepare a
story. It was for them, however, to weigh all the circumstances,
and he could only say, that if they had a fair and reasonable

- •
, doubt that the priscmer had committed the offence with which
he was charged, then it was their duty to return a verdict of
acquittal.. • -
The jury 'requested leave to retire, and they also begged
that the papers produced in Court might be handed to them.
They left the Court at twenty minutes past five o'clock ;
and returned at twenty-five minutes to eight, when the pri-
soner was again placed in the dock. He appeared quite calm
and collected, and as the name of each juror was called he
regarded him with a steady gaze.
The usual questions having been put, the foreman pro-
nounced the verdict of Guilty.
Mr. Justice Wawms, who had come into Court to receive
the verdict, said that sentence would not then be passed, and
the prisoner was ordered to be taken back to the gaol.
Dalmas at first made a motion as though he would have
addressed the Court, but he appeared to change his determi-
nation immediately, and he turned round and walked with a
firm step to the interior of the gaol.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.

FRAM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.
CITY, FRIDAY EVENING.

TIMES.—In the foreign exchanges the rate upon Ham-
burgh experienced a decline, owing to letters from that place
by to-day's mail advising a material fall there in the rate
upon London. Amsterdam was likewise rather lower, in
consequence of a demand for bills upon that place, which de-
pression, however, did not extend to Rotterdam. Paris re-
mained about the same as last post.
Sir Robert Peel has answered the application of the Lon-
don bankers for an extension of the Bank of England's power
of issuing on securities beyond the 14,000,0001. in cases of
emergency: He refuses to allow such extension in any other
case than that already provided for in the sth clause of the
Bill—viz., that of a private banker ceasing to issue his own
notes, and even denies that his speech, when first the mea-
sure was proposed, justified the supposition that a different
course would be adopted. It must, however, be said on the
part of the bankers, that whatever was the original intention
of the Premier, both his own language and the correspon-
dence of the Chancellor of the Exchequer with the Bank,
led the most experienced persons in the City to believe that
a general power of extension was contemplated, and not
merely a power in the one particular case.
SUN.—The value of Consols this afternoon was
slightly depreciated, 978 having been paid, though the
latest bargains were at 98 to 98*. The Unfunded Debt
continues firm, as also the heavy securities.

As usual, after the settlement of the account, the Fo-
reign Securities have undergone some fluctuation.
Spanish Actives improved this afternoon to 228 and
231, and the Three per Cents. to 341 341 ; but the most
decided alteration was in Mexican Bonds, which got up
to 341 1, owing partly to the more favourable advices
from the United States. Portuguese Converted were
steady at 47. Belgian Bonds were 1041.
The additional transactions in Railway Shares have
been these:—Birmingham and Gloucester New were
541 ; Croydon, 41 to 4:I ; Manchester and Leeds, 3.5 i. ;
Ditto and Birmingham, 15 ; Newcastle and Darlington,
218 ; Norwich and Brandon, 51 ; South-Eastern, 24 to
; Ditto New, 7 to q- ; York and North Midland,
681 to 691 ; Ditto Half, 33 ; Scarborough Branch, 161
to 164 ; and Paris and Orleans, 17:1 to 18 premium;
Brighton, 31 to 3/ ; Greenwich, 54 to 51-; and North
Midland, 7 to 7f discount.
With the, exception of a slight decline on Hamburgh,
occasioned by the lower quotations per to-day's mail,
we cannot notice any alteration of moment in the Foreign
Exchanges.
The American accounts read well as regards trade.
The following are political extracts relative to Cuba
and Central Amernca

" The Florence has arrived from Mantanzas, with ad-
vices to the 22d May.
"There had been a number of people, white and black,
arrested two days before the Florence sailed, on suspicion
of being concerned in the abortive insurrection. The
Court was sitting at Mantanzas, trying the negroes be-
longing to the plantations. There had been a number
condemned, taken out to the plantations to which they
belonged, and shot. The prisons and forts were crowded
with prisoners.

"Ii was said that Mr. Donald, a native of New York,
and an engineer, was arrested and imprisoned, charged
with being concerned in the riots ; alsa several other
engineers.
The Thomas H. Benton, Captain Roberts, arrived
yesterday from San Juan, reports that he (Captain R.)
attempted to enter the port of St. John's, in Central
America, but was refused admittance, it being under a
blockade by 11. B. M. schooner of war Hornet, Lieut.
Miller. The blockade had lasted three months, the
British vessels which enforced it being relieved monthly."
