Magnificent preparations for the approaching races at
Killarney aro rapidly going forward. The Earl and
Countess of KEN M A RE, Lord and Lady HEADLEY,
HERBERT, of Mucruss, with all the rank and fashion of
the surrounding country, will attend.
We have commercial advices from Singapore to the
14th Nov. The Orynthea had arrived with a considerable stock of
iron, and a fall In the price was expected. Some sales of elephant's
teeth had been made at 120 dollars per picul. The sales of bee's-
wax:were at 36 to 3B dollars per picul.
SONTAG.—We are enabled to state, on the authority
of a letter from a Lady of the first distinction in Berlin, that Made.
moiselle Sontag has been undoubtedly married to the Count de'
Rossi ; but that suspicions of a most unfounded nature, on the part of
the Count, have caused a temporary separation, which it is probable
will, after all, be of short duration. he enthu'tiasm with which
Sontag has been received, on her return to her father-land, has been
quite extraordinary; and, at the concerts given at the various towns
on the road to Berlin, she was universally thought to he in finer
voice than when she left Germany. Mademoiselle Sontag is to ap-
pear as soon as possible in an Opera,—which she was at lust unable
to do, from the tenderness of her very delicate feet and andel', which
has lately quite prevented her from walking. At a concert at
Leipsic she was obliged to apologize to the audience for singing
seated, and was carried from the concert-room to her carriage by her
attendants.—Court Journal.

In consequence of the postponement of his Majesty's
drawing-room, the Diplomatic and Cabinet dinners, to have been
given on that day by the First Lord of the Treasury and Secretaries
of State, have also been postponed. The entertainments were to
have been on a more than usual style of splendour and magnificence.
The Knight of Kerry has arrived in Tralee, and has
addressed his constituents thus.—" Ibis Majesty has been graciously
pleased to confer upon me the office of Vice-Pressures of Ireland.
must therefore again appeal to you—l trust I shall obtain your
sanction of my association in office, under the great Minister who
has accomplished the noble work of religious freedom, and who I
know ardently desires to advance the prosperity of Ireland."
MAIt I' LEBON R OFFICE.—A coachman in the service
of Mrs. Alexander, of Hanover.terracc, named James Marchara,
was brought before Mr. RAWLINSON on Wednesday last, by the
police, who dctec'ed him in the act of battering a gentleman's
house in Gloucester-place, about one o'clock on the same morning,
and breaking down the balcony and windows with stones and brick-
bats of considerable size. The offender was convicted in a penalty
of 51. nailer the Malicions Act, ton akc good the danazgc and bound
over to answer at the Quarter Sessions tor this breach of the peace.
ASSIZE IN TE CE.—At the present Assizes the
Grand Jury felt the City of Gloucester, found a true bill against
William Cooke Ware!, of Cheltenham, an attorney.at-law, for bay.
ingobtitined from one George Laden, a poor, but honest and indus.
triou4 man, and who acts as the Deputy Turnkey of the Prison Of
that City,the sant of M. upon the false representation, that a watch,
chain, and seals, deposited by the ;: Cooke Ward as a
warily for the amatmt . were gold, and of the value of 35 guineas,
which watch proved to be base meal!, and die value of the whole
not one WA part of the anwcntalhg.d. The money is stated to
have iit;cr. the proccvds of some years of the prosecutor's hard and
industrious labour, and meant to have been appropriated to the
apprenticing his son : and was obtained from the prosecutor during
the time the s' said William Cooke Wahl" was incarcerated in that
prison for debt._

Ls! KY WOllli.—At a vestry meeting held in Mary's
parish, Kilkenny, the Rev. Mr. Roe, a Protestant clergyman, who
was in the chair, avowed his dislike to the present vastly act, and
spoke in strung terms of the distress he felt at presiding at a vestry
held under so oppressive a law. lie hoped the wisdnin of the legis.
lature would shortly amend it in such a manner as would be satis-
factory to all parties. and prevent any breach of that union which,
during the many years he had been among the parishioners of St.
%i 's, be had ever witnessed at their vestries.
EMIGRATION FROM IRELAND.—Tho Thetis, of this
port, belonging to Francis Spaight, Esq. dropped down our river
this morning, with between two and three hundred passengers for
British America. The poor fellows in the Thetis, are healthy, stout,
working farmers.—Linter iek Post of Tuesday.
The mania for emigration which seems to pervade
every part of the British islands, appears to be rapidly sp.ead-
ing from Johnny Groat's to the Land's-end, and promises
to remove all those fears of over.populatiun in which Mr.
‘Vilmot Horton, and other disciples of the Malthus school,
have been disposed to indulge. The barque Restitution, belong-
ing to W. P. Billing, Esq. of Devonpart, has sailed for New
Brunswick, taking no less than 270 emigrants, chiefly Cornish la.
hooters ; and another vessel, belonging to the same gentleman
called the New Bideford, nearly ready for sea, has already about 20(;
more bound to the same destination.— Plymouth Journal.
LORD CIIESTERFIELD.—There is a story told of
Lord Chesterfield, which sets that Nobleman's idea of a country
life in so strong a point of view, that it deserves to be related.'
Walking one day with a friend in the street, he was exceedingly
annoyed by a little cur, which continued barking and biting at Mal
heels. He bore this for some time with great patience t but at
length turning round, he said with apparent good humour, " I wish
you were married, Sir, and settled in the country."—Mirror.

John Trapp, the prosecutor stated that Cr,: prisoner residcd in

Mr. NVood and he retreated into the lower rooms. The prlsonct
carte to the door armed with a large chisel, threatening to destrn)
them.

Samuel Edward Wood corroborated the testimony of Mr. Trap,.
llobt. Ferguson also confirmed the testimony of ti c wosccutor.
Edward Sitaw, policeman, letter K, deposed that he went to the
pri►oner's house, accompanied by Serjeant Wheeler; they brok.:
open the door, and took him into custody ; on looking into the
cupboard they found two instruments, one a gouge masked with
blood.

Mr. Tribe, a surgeon, deposed to his having ban called to look
at the prosecutor's eye on the 16t t Feb. which was bCvcrely wounded
by a siturp.edged instrument similar to the one produced in Court.
The prisoner, on being called upon for his detour,., addressed the
Court and Jury at considerable length, and ektaiied various circum-
stances of the drunken conduct of his wife, to whom he attributed
his ruin, and that of his family. Ile could not attempt to justify his
otfence, but he hoped the Jury would mitigate his punishment, as
it was done in the heat of passion, caused by the disgusting state in
which his wife returned home.--Several witnesses were called, who
had known the prisoner for years, and they all gave hint the cha.
racier of being a tranquil, inoffensive man.
His Loapsarr addressed the Jury, and observed that he had
consulted with his Learned Brother, Gaseke and they were both
opinion that had the prosecutor died from the effects of the wound,
they must certainly have brought it in wilful murder ; but he was
happy to find that that had not been the result. The law was such
that the plea of committing a crime whilst labouring under the ef.
fects of intoxication had no avail, for if once that was allowed as a
palliative there would be no end to crimes. He left it to them to
consider whether the prisoner really intended to commit murder or
not when he made the attack; if so they must find him guilty of the
capital offence.
The Jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict, "Guilty
of attempting to commit serious bodily harm, hut not with intention
to murder." In returning this verdict they did so on account
of the good character given of the prisoner, and of his numerous
family.
The Learned Judge said that their
tainly be represented to his Majesty.

EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE.
In the month of September last, as a man was passing
through a field at the rear of a house occupied by the family of Sir
Matthew Bloxam, at Walworth, he observed something white
near the surface of a small bank, which was close to a hawthorn
hedge. The man at first supposing it to be a stone, reached down
with the view of taking it up; but he found the greater portion
firmly fixed in the earth. After having moved away sonic of the
mould with his hands, he then saw that it was the upper por.
tion of a human skull, and, on the discovery, lie immediately
procured a spade and dug it out. He conveyed the skull to the
residence of a gentleman in the immediate vicinity of the place
where it was found, and a large nail was found driven to its full
extent in the socket of the left eye. The parish officers had
the ground carefully dug up, and the remaining portion of a
human skeleton was found. As the bones were supposed to have
been buried a number of years, it was considered unnecessary to
hold an inquest, and the skeleton was again consigned to the earth.
Nothing more was heard of the matter until the last few days, when
la communication was forwarded to the Home Office, from the Go.
vernor of the House of Correction at Cork, stating that a man
named John Hawitins, who had been prevented from committing
suicide, had confessed having committed a murder in England. In
the confession, which was taken down in writing, Hawkins stated
that in the year 11127, before he inlisted into the regiment, he
was in the service of a butcher at 11'alworth. One evening he
went out and met a female, and in the course of their conversa-
tion she used some vile expressions towards him, and that he, irri.
tated at her conduct, led her on to a field in Walworth, when tak.
ing advantage of the solitariness of the place, he struck her. This
ledd to further violence between them ; and having a large nail in his
on at the time, being the only weapon he had, he forced
rt°lll:rher head, and effected her death. Atter she was dead, he
threw the body into a pond, not far distant ; but fearing that it
would be discovered, if left in that situation, he got up at three
o'clock the next morning, and having proceeded to the pond, he
dragged the body out. He then dug a hole in the field, and having
divested the body of the clothes, lie placed it in the ground, and
covered it over carefully, and afterwards buried the clothes at some
little distance from where he had covered over the body.
After having made the above statement, Hawkins said that the
cause of his absconding from his master, and enlisting in the army,
was in consequence of hearing that the body had been found. Yes-
terday the circumstances of the case were investigated by 3lr. Cham-
bers, the Magistrate of Union Hall. A gardener named Murrell
proved having found the skeleton in September last, and thee a
nail was then in the socket of the eye. Mrs. Bertram, wife
of a butcher at Walworth, said, that when the skeleton was
found, a young man named John Hawkins was in her husband's
service, but he absconded when the discovery was made. She said
that Hawkins was in the habit of going out occasionally at night,
but she was not aware that he was keeping company with any young
girl—Evans, the beadle, said he did not hear of any female having
been missed at the time described by Hawkins in his confession.
The Magistrate havinp heard the whole of the evidence, ad.
journed the further investigation, in order that the bones might be
examined by a medical man, to put it beyond all doubt whether it
was that of a male or female.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

110 W-STREET.
MADAME VESTRlS.—Yesterday, two gentlemen, who stated
themselves to be friends of Madame Vestris, 'applied to Sir R
Music for his advice under circumstances, as they stated, of very
great hardship, as respected her.
Sir It. BIRNIE said he should be happy to render any assistar.,:.:
within the scope of his power, and he begged the gentlemen woul..
I state the nature of their complaint.
One of the gentlemen stated that Madame Vestris was advertised
in the bills of Drury.lane Theatre to make her first appearance fix
the season, on Tuesday night last, in her favourite character of Cap-
tain Afachenth, In the Itcyyar's Opera. Before the evening arrived.
her friends received information privately, that a number of meant
were to be packed together in different parts of the theatre for the put,
pose of assailing her with hisses, and other species of annoyance, it
possible to drive her from the stage. The night arrived, and Malaya
Vestris no sooner made her appearance than she was assailed in the
manner which the previous information had led her and her friends:-
anticipate. A studied opposition was kept up in certain parts of
house during the whole progress of the piece ; but the majority of
audience, with a feeling that did them credit, drowned the uproar s'
the malcontents in repeated rounds of applause, and she went ;browc
the part most triumphantly. The friends of the lady had sine.
instituted a rigid inquiry, and were prepared with positive
proof, that the servant of a male vocalist, alto recently made Ets
debut on the stage of the same theatre with considerable success.
had distributed money amongst a number of needy persons, on con-
dition that they placed themselves in the Theatre, and did all then
could to hoot Madame Vestris off the stage.
Sir R. BIRNIE said such conduct was extremely unmanly' and
disgraceful, but he did not think it was a matter in which a 31ag's•
trate could interfere. If the applicants were prepared with sue'.
proof as they had mentioned, titer best course would be to take
witnesses to the Sessions, which were at present sitting, and prefet-
bill of indictment against the alleged offenders for a conspiracy.
The gentlemen said they would do an, and kit the office.
