MURDER IN FRANCE.

PARIS, FEB. 19.—A1l the papers must have told you of
the murder that took place in Paris a few days ago. We
suppose you have the particulars—such for instance is the
following, which we copy verbatim from one of the prin-
cipal Journals :—" Yesterday two females residing in the'
Rue Pierre Lescot were found mudded in their room,
the head of one of them was nearly separtited,from the
body:" On the next day—" It is said that a hair-dresser
accused of the above murder is arrested." Now mark ye !
This happened five days ago, and not another word is said
about the business in the above, or any other newspaper.
If we mention the circumstance, it is from no invidious.
motives; we fully believe that justice is exactly ad-.
ministered in France, but it is the peculiar apathy evinced
by the inhabitants of Paris, the dislike they entertain for
tales- of horror, which strikes us. What a delightful
narrative this would have been, for John Bull r A
handsome perruquier—love—jealousy—revenge—a little
robbery, &c: You cockneys would have lived upon this
for one monlh, but here --! We called yesterday at
the prison of La Force to see the Marquis de Maubreuil,
and whilst sitting in what is called the parloir, the man ac-
cused of. the murder (and there are many good reasons to
belieVe him guilty) passed through the room. He is tall,
good-looking, .of fair complexion, and about four and
twenty years of age. "He will be guillotined to a dead
certainty," said the gaolers, with admirable sang froid.
We Englishmen are really of a different clay from other
nations. Our palates stand in need 'of curry, - mustard,
and cayenne; our souls want strong stimuli, violent emo-
tions. The first individual from whom we received the
horrid intelligence was the Rev. C. C., who resides near
the spot, and, like true Englishmen, we exclaimed "let us
go and see !" To the spot we repaired, and if you don't
know where the Rue Pierre Lescot is, you will be sur-
prised to learn that the house in question, where the mur-
der was perpetrated, is a corner one, and the room in
which the deed of blood was carried into effect, is in the
Rue St. Honore, about fifteen yards from the superb
Palace of the Duke of Orleans, just as one would say (as
least when we were in London), the situation .of the house
of Chevalier Ruspini with that of Carlton Palace. " Where
did the murder take place ?" said my friend to a water
carrier, pulling along his suspended barrel; " Voila !" said
the man, and there ends my letter.—Morning Paper.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY).

DEXTEROUS HORSBECIWS-TSETALRIENEG.L. A Mr. Walker, of
Palmer's Green, applied for assistance of one of the officers
to trace, if possible, a pair of valuable carriage horses which
were stolen from hie premises early this morning, at the
above place. From the finished dexterity with which the
robbery was performed, it is strongly suspected that it must
have been done by some person acquainted with the premises
and property. After breaking into Mr. Walker's place,
and securing the horses, in order to make the thing more
complete, they took a pick-axe from his barn, broke into
the stable of a neighbour, and took off two saddles.
Sir R. BIRNIE ordered Gardner, an active officer, to at-
tend Mr. Walker to Smithfield and the repositaries.
Mary Cain, a child of 13 years of age, and the daugh-
ter of a laundress, was brought up to this office yesterday
evening, charged with having feloniously pawned some
shirts, the property of one of her mother's customers.
It appeared that the child had unfortunately got con-
nected with several women of bad character, and had been
seduced by one of them to commit this act, the proceeds
of which were afterwards spent at a public-house.
' The pawnbroker (Simmons) was severely blamed by
Sir RICHARD BIRNIE for having received from a child of
so humble an appearance shirts that were evidently of too
fine a quality to belong to any member of her own family,
and observed, that when the case came before a Jury,
Simmons would probably appear in a very unfavourable
light in the eyes of the Court.
Upon further inspection of the linen, when the case was
again brought forward this morning, it appeared that the
shirts had been only rough dried, and must, therefore, have
_been taken from the prisoner's mother before being ironed,
whereupon Sir RICHARD, referring to the Pawnbroker's
Act, passed in the 46th Geo. 111., the following clause was
found:—." If any person shall knowingly buy, or take in as
a pledge or pawn, or in exchange, any linen or apparel
which shall be entrusted . to any person to wash, scour,
iron, finish, or work up, every such person shall forfeit
double the sum given or lent, to be paid to the poor of the
parish where the offence shall have been committed, and
shall be obliged to restore the said goods to the owner."
Mr. Simmons declared his total ignorance of such
a clause having existed, and in consideration of his hay-
ing in the very first instance offered to deliver the goods
to the owner, and as it did not appear that at the time he
received them, he was aware of the state the shirts were
in, Sir Richard Birnie excused him from the payment of
the penalty, warning hina
at the same time to be more
cautious in future.—The child was committed to the
House of Correction for a month.
The existence of the clause above quoted may not be
generally known, in which case it will be important to
pawnbrokers to take notice, that it applies not only to
linen, but to all goods in an unfinished state, by receiving
which in pledge they subject themselves to a similar pe-
uponnalty, nalty, information being laid before any Magistrate.

HAYTIAN MINING COMPANY.

A Meeting of the Shareholders of this Company was held on
Saturday, at their Offices in Finsbury Circus, for the purpose of
taking into consideration the propriety of dissolving the same.
Lord Nugent, who took the Chair, observed, that the Directors
had totally failed in the objects for which the Company was esta-
blished ; but the proceedings of the Association had been conducted
in the most economical manner. As soon as there appeared no
prospect of success, all expenses were immediately suspended. He
(Lord. Nugent) had entered the Company with strong hopes of
success ; and in the belief that, through the means of the Com-
pany, free labour would be encouraged. He had never parted
with a single share, although at one period they bore a high pre-
mium. The Report was read, in which it was stated, that a
deposit of 51. per share, on 6581 shares had been paid, the amount
of which was 32,905/. Mr. Hendricks, the original projector of
the Company, had been paid 8,000/ , and he had received a fur-
ther sum of 1,000/. from the Direc.tors, for giving up his claims
on the Company, according to agreement between them. There
now remained in hand a balance of 8075/. 76. 4d., which was
about 11. per share.

Mr. JOII SMITH, M.P., read a letter from Mr. Brougham,which stated, that his name had been introduced as a Director, in
order that the plan he so much approved of might be promoted,
and not from any desire to traffic in the shares.
Mr. ROBINSON said, that Mr. Brougham adopted apitiful mode
of sneaking out of a concern.

The Noble Chairman, IVIr. Smith, Mr. B. Lousado, and several
of the Directors, rose together, and declared they would not allow
any imputation of that kind to be cast on Mr. Brougham. He
had lent his name solely from benevolent views, for the purpose of
promoting the plan.
After some further conversation, a Committee was appointed to
inquire into the state of the Company.

The farmers in the south of Devon are selling their
wheat from fear, while their barley, although a deficient crop, is
completely unsaleable. There is little or no malting going on,
because there is no demand for that article at Liverpool, whither
they were wont to send large quantities. Sherborne Journal.

fish, in which the late King of Naples was so great a proficient—
namely, harpooning them when attracted by the light of a fire so

In many places the fish thus caught they eat raw, as the greatest

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.

John Taylor came up to be heard on his petition, and
was opposed by three creditors, named Davis, Pratt, and
Buchanan. Mr. Heath was retained by the insolvent.
In his cross-examination by Mr. Davis, a paper-mer-
chant in Bermondsey, the insolvent stated that he received
the benefit of the Insolvent Act in March, 1823. Upon
this statement the Court observed, that it then lay on the
insolvent to show that he was entitled to the benefit now.
Mr. Davis then proceeded to give evidence that the in-
solvent had obtained sixty-five pounds worth 'of paper,
which he had disposed of on the same day. He had how-
ever paid twenty-five pounds on account, and had sold
the paper to a person named Rotheran, whose master,
West, a grocer in Shoreditch, had lent insolvent various
sums of money, and the latter had paid him 28/., which
he received from Rotheran at the time; Mr. Davis sub-
mitted that that was not a bona fide transaction, and that
the paper had been obtained under the false representation
of his (Davis's) clerk, 'Wright, whose father was the de-
taining creditor. He also remarked on the insolvent's
schedule, which stated that he had realised 2001. a-year
profit by his trade, and in another part attributed his
failure to the badness of trade. He submitted that it was
a strange proof of the badness of trade, when a Wall could
make 200/. a-year without capital.
Mr. Buchanan, surgeon, opposed, and asked the insol-
vent if he had been a bankrupt. He replied, that he had,
and had not obtained his certificate.

On referring to the schedule, it was discovered that the
insolvent had sworn that he never was a bankrupt, and his
petition was directly dismissed.

TO OWNERS OF SALT MINES,

REFINERS, SHIPPERS OF SALT, AGRICUL-
TURISTS, MANUFACTURERS, AND CON-
SUMERS OF SALT IN GENERAL.
MR. W. FURNIVAL respectfully informs
the Public, that his connection with the BRITISH
ROCK and PATENT SALT COMPANY has ceased; at
the same time, he feels happy to add, that the progress of
his Salting pursuits has at length removed every difficulty
in the Manufacture of Salt, by a new, most simple, and
economical apparatus, for which Letters Patent have been
granted to the English Patentee.
The great objects he had in view are now accomplished,
—lst, Having destroyed the coalition of salt refiners,
which existed for many years to the injury of the Shipping
Salt Trade, as reference to the export lists, and also to the
high prices obtained during such illicit combination, wil
demonstrate. 2d, Being enabled to cause a reduction of
full one-h-.l:' from the coalition prices, whereby the Ship-
ping, the Agricultural, and the Manufacturing interests
will be materially benefited—and 3d, being now pre-
pared to erect the new apparatus, portable by land and
water, entirely excludes pan incrustations (called pan bake)
lessens the expence of repairs, or rather renders them com-
paratively unnecessary, (and not as hitherto liable to injury
from the neglect of workmen), yields a very considerable
saving in fuel and labour, and with reference to all int-
provements at Anderton, &c. produces a greater quantity
of salt in vessels of equal space. Such are the advantages
secured by the last improvements, that leaving a fair rental
to the Proprietors of Mines, also a sufficient profit to th,
Refiners, and taking coals at the present average cost, tin
price of Salt need not exceed Ten Shillings per ton.
Mr. FURNIVAL is disposed to afford the means for every
Salt Refiner to protect his Works, and permission will b,
given for removing the Patent Apparatus to convenient
situations. • .

The important Geological discoveries Mr. Furnival ha►
made respecting the formation and existence in the eartl
of that precious mineral, Rock Salt, and of Brine Springs,
will enable him successfully to explore such eligible situa-
tions, as will much lessen the carriage for hbme consump-
tion, and increase the export trade from the Western and
Northern ports.
Terms, subject to the restriction of price from the Re-
finers to the Public, without which stipulation no ap-
plication will be attended to, may be had on applying
by letter, post paid, to Mr. Heard, No. I, Fennivars Inn,
Holborn.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

Livxa.rooL, MAY s.—The business done in British
Plantation Sugar this week has been limited, owing to the
want of a suitable supply for the scale, our stock being re-
duced to a few hundred casks only, consisting chiefly of the
brown qualities. The total quantity sold does not exceed
250 hhds. ; besides which, 300 bags fine white Bengal
Sugar have been taken by the grocers at 745. being a
further reduction of 6d. to Is. per cwt. on that description.
Cocoa, Pimento and Ginger remain dull. In Rum little
doing : a small lot of common Leewards has been sold at

KING'S THEATRE.

The announcement of Madame Pasta brought_
together a fuller and more fashionable house on Sa-.
turday night than has been seen during the present
season. " Semiramide" was the performance ori-
ginally advertised, but the indisposition of Signors
Galli and Curioni compelled the Proprietor to sub-
stitute the first act of Rossini's " Il Tancredi," and
the third act of Zingaretti's " Romeo e Giulietta."'
Madame Pasta's performance of Tancred, in the
former Opera, was always one of het: most in-
tellectual and refined exhibitions, and on this
occasion preserved all its wonted ability. In
the exquisite air, " Di tanti Palpiti," she intro-,
duced new and appropriate beauties, which called
down a most enthusiastic encore. Her reci-
tative, too, of " 0 patria I dolce e ingrata Patria,"
was characterised by intense fervour of expression.
In the " Romeo e Giulietta," the impassioned sor-
rows of Romeo found an adequate representative in
Madame Pasta, who throughout her performance,
particularly at its close, received the most unequi-
vocal proofs that she is as great a favourite as ever
with the public.
