LIVERPOOL, NOV. 14.—We have had a very
good demand for cotton again to-day, and the sales amount
to upwards of 2,500 bags, of which about 1,300 were
Brazils. •

CORN-EXCHANGE, LIVERPOOL, Nov. 14.
We had but a thin attendance at this day's market ; but
the prices of last Tuesday were fully supported for every
article in the trade.

Such has been the glut of herrings that they
have been retailed in the streets at a farthing a-piece.

TIC DOLOREUX.--A lady, some time since,
when suffering severely under the above complaint, acci-
dentally saw a statement in a newspaper, that snuff and
Peruvian bark mixed together, in the proportions of two-
thirds of the former and one-third of the latter, and taken
as snuff usually is, had been successfully used for the relief
of the sufferer. She was induced to try the effect, and
happily obtained complete relief. One of her servants
having recently experienced the same malady, she recom-
mended to her the adoption of the same remedy, and in her
case also entire relief ha 4 been the consequence. She,
therefore, makes this known for the benefit of all whom it
may concern.

Mr. CROCKER, who has been, for more than
half a century, connected with the Board of Works, and,
consequently, much engaged about St. Janies's Palace, has
retired from his office, entitled-to nearly, if not quite, his
full salary, by way of pension for length of service in a Go-
vernment department. His successor is not yet appointed;
but some one not now in the department has been men-
tioned as likely to succeed Mr. CROCKER-an intimation
that has created some dissatisfaction amongst those who
have calculated that seniority, length of service, or merits,
gave claims strltnger than those possessed by persons who
knew nothing of the sunshine of the office.

The following lines were written by WALTER
SCOTT when be was between ten and eleven years of age,
and while he was attending the High School, Edinburgh.
His master there had spoken of him as a remarkably stupid
boy, and his mother with grief acknowledged that he had
spoken truly. She saw him one morning in the midst of
a tremendous thunder storm standing still in the street
and looking at the sky. She called to him repeatedly, but
he remained looking upwards withsut taking the least no-
tice of her. When he returned into the house she was
very much displeased with him. "Mother," he said, "I
could tell you the reason why I stood still, and why I
looked at the sky, if you would only give me a pencil."
She gave him one and in less thin five minutes he laid a
bit of paper on her lap with these words written on it:—
" Loud o'er my head what awful thunders roll,
What vivid lightnings flash ft om pole to pole,
It is thy voice, my God, that bids them fly,
Thy voice directs them through the vaulted sky.
Then let the good thy mighty power revere,
Let harden'd sinners thy just judgments fear."
The old lady repeated them to me berself, and the tears
were in her eyes: for I really believe, simple as they are,
that she values these lines, being the first effusion of her
son's genius, snore than any later beauties which have so
charmed all tl:e world besides.—Extract from an Origi-

CORONERS' INQUESTS.

On Saturday night an inquest was holden at the
Queen's Landing public-house, Wapping-wall, be-
fore Mr. JOHN UNWIN, jun., who acted as Coroner
in the absence of his father, on the remains of Miss
Emily Harwood, au interesting young woman,seven-
teen years of age, who committed suicide on Friday
last, by swallowing a quantity of arsenic while under
the influence of disappointed hopes.

The corpse of the ill-fated girl lay in a sleeping-
room at her father's, to which the Jury repaired to
view it; and though the changes that death had
effected on it, and the violent action of the corrosive
mineral she had taken, it still preserved sufficient to
indicate that she had once been beautiful. Her hair,
which was raven black, bad partially fallen off, and
its contrast to the skin, which was of a marble
whiteness, drew forth several observations from the
Jury.

James Harwood, the father of the deceased, on
Friday went, as washis usual custom,to call his daugh-
ter. On going into her room he perceived a quantity
of white powder lying about the place,and discovered
a tea-cup with a spoon in it lying underneath the
bed. He became alarmed, and said to her," Emily,
my dear, have you taken any thing; is not this an
emetic ?" She answered that she bad not taken an
emetic, and appeared to be in the greatest pain. He
immediatery sent fora surgeon, who attended in the
course of a few minutes.

Mr. UNWIS—Do you know of her having formed
an attachment to any person, and her being dis►p-
pointed in a return of her affection ? Witness—l
do not. There was a young man who has just gone

MOST SINGULAR CASE OF SUICIDE.-At eleven
o'clock on Saturday an Inquest was held at the
Orange Tree public-house, Isleworth, on Mrs.
Charlotte Collins, aged 70.
• The deceased was a woman of most peculiar habits
-but of a cheerful disposition► until within the last fort-
night, when a general change in her behaviour took
place, the cause of which she did not attempt to
conceal. Although horn and residing at Isleworth,
she had never, up to that time, visited London, to
which place she bore an unaccountable antipathy.
She had never been in a Court of Justice, civil or
criminal, or before a Magistrate, and considered
making an affidavit highly improper, founding her
position on the text " Swear not at all." Some
considerable time ago, under peculiar circumstances,
she became, as a matter of form, witness to the
signing of a will, by which considerable property
had been appropriated to charitable purposes. This
instrument, it appears, became disputed, and subse-
quent litigation commenced. The week before last
deceased received a citation to attend Doctors'
Commons, and give evidence on the subject. This
greatly distressed her, and it was with considerable
difficulty she was sufficiently calmed to pet form what
was required of her. She returned as speedily as
possible, but very much depressed in spirits at hav-
ing been obliged to undergo a long examination on
oath, but was partially quieted by an assurance that
she would not again be wanted. Her usual compo.
sure was returning gradually, when, on Thursday, a
second notice arrived, announcing tie necessity of
heragain attending on astated day. This appears to
have completely overcome her, and during the re-
mainder of the day she was gloomy and restless, and
repeatedly said she could not go again. At night
she retired to bed as usual, but not being seen the
next morning by her neighbours, search was made,
and the unfortunate old lady was found suspended by
the neck from the tester of her bed, and quite dead.
She had effected her purpose with a child's skipping
rope fastened with several knots.

The Coroner and Jury concurred in opinion that
the case was most extraordinary; and under all the
circumstances, a verdict of " temporary Derange-
ment" was returned.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.

On Saturday Mr. Jonathan Henry Wilson, and
his brother, Mr. William August us Wilson, both of
Tooting, Surrey, were brought before Mr. HALLS,
.the-sitting Magistrate, and Mr. RoIIINSON and Mr.
BAKER, Magistrates for Middlesex, charged with
having wilfully ridden over Henry Carlo, one of the
toll-takers at the horse gate of Waterloo-bridge, on
the morning of Saturday the 7th instant., whereby
the life of that person was placed in imminent haz-
ard. Some of the members of the Waterloo-bridge
Committee, and Mr. Powell, the secretary, were in
attendance, and the room in which the examina-
tion took place was crowded to excess.
It will be recollected that at the first examination
Mr. Jonathan Henry Wilson was not in custody.
On Thursday last he voluntarily surrendered him-
self to Mr. HALLS, by whom he was committed to
the House of Correction, Clerkenwell, where his
brother was confined.

Mrs. Mary Kirby was a widow, and resided at
No. 2, Webber-street, Lambeth. At one o'clock
in the morning in question, she was standing at the
toll-gate on the Surrey side of the bridge, when the
accident occurred. She heard the watchman call
out to shut the gate, and saw Carlo attempt to do
so, but the two gentlemen who were riding furi-
ously came upon him so suddenly that he had no
time to close the gate. He was knocked down and
ridden over. The horses were head to head as
close as they could be. One of the gentlemen was
without a hat.

By Mr. Powell—ln the hurry of the moment, I
did not observe which of the gentlemen was first,
but I think it was he who had no bat.

By Mr. FALLS--The gentleman without his hat
was next to the paved place from which Carlo had
come to shut the gate.

By Mr. Powell—Both gentlemen after passing
the gate rode away as fast as possible, without mak-
ing any attempt to stop their horses, but they rather
strove to urge them on.

A baker, named Smith, stated, that he was about
20 or 30 yards' distant from the gate at the Surrey
side of the bridge when the accident happened. He
heard a tremendous galloping, and presently saw two
gentlemen riding from the bridge. One of the gen-
tlemen endeavoured to pull up, saying, " It's all
wrong; I have lost my hat." This person (Mr.
William Augustus Wilson) was a little in advance
of the other. Witness heard a cry of help at the
gate, but did not see the prisoners pass through it.
Thomas Scriven, hostler at the Wheat Sheaf,
Tooting, was acquainted with the prisoners, both of
whom were now present. On the Saturday morn-
ing in question, at a few minutes after two o'clock,
the prisoners came to the stable-yard, and he (wit-
ness) took their horses from them. They seemed
both very sober and steady. Mr. William Augus-
tus said that he had lost his hat, and that his horse
had run away with him.
Mr. Powell here intimated to the Magistrate
that he did not think it necessary to call any other
witnesses.

Mr. Freshfield, jun., observed, that he understood
a witness was present, who was on the bridge at
the time in question, and he supposed that Mr.
Powell would not object to calling him.
Mr. Powell had taken the greatest pains to ascer-
tain the names of the individuals who-were present
or near at hand wlien the melancholy transaction
occurred. He knew nothing of the witness re-
ferred to, and therefore should not call him.
Mr. Freshfield, jun., remarked, that any indivi-
dual whose evidence was likely to throw a light upon
the transaction ought to be brought forward in Jus-
tice to' his unfortunate clients.
Mr. Powell—'Then call him yourself.
Mr. Freshfield—l beg to say, that I know nothing
whatever of the person whose evidence I wish to
be taken. I have had no communication with him
previous to my coining here, and never saw him
until to-day,

A young man,
who said his name was Benjamin
Clithero, and that he lived at No. 23, Webber-
street, Lambeth, then came forward, and being
examined by Mr. Freshfield, deposed, that he was
on the centre of the bridge at one o'clock on Sa.

Mr. HALLS did not think it at all necessary to do
so. There was sufficient evidence to prove that the
prisoners lashed their horses both on the bridge and
when they cleared the gate.
Mr. Powell then handed to the Magistrate the
certificate of surgeons Calloway and Handy, wlt) ;
had seen Carlo at two o'clock on that day. The
certificate announced that they (the surgeons) felt
great pleasure in stating that Carlo was considerably
better, and added a hope of his ultimate recovery,
although he was not yet free from danger. -Me cok
cussion of the brain still continued-,

Mr. HALLS having read the certificate, said that
until the surgeons certified that the wounded man
was free from danger, he could not think of accept-
ing bail.
Mr. Freshfield, jun. said he had hoped that bail
would be accepted under all the circumstances of the
case. Bail of the most respectable description, and
to any amount, was ready to be offered.
The prisoners were then ordered to be remanded
until Wednesday next, with an understanding, how-
ever, that if the wounded man were pronounced
out of danger in the interim, they might apply to
be released o' bail.

At a late hour on Saturday evening a man named
John Davis, and a well-looking young Jewess,
with an infant at her breast, who gave the name of
Hannah Allen, were charged with feloniously re-
ceiving 120 dozen of gloves which had been stolen
from the premises of Mr. William Towns, of No.
26, Fleet-street, in the night of the 21st of Octo-
ber last. The prisoners were brought to the office
in custody of Ruthven and Ellis, two of the princi-
pal officers. The former apprehended Davis at No.
14, Belton-street, Long-acre; and Ellis took the
female prisoner into custody at No. 20, Little
White. Lion-street. They found a great quantity
of silks and ribands at the houses of both pri-
soners, and had reason to believe that they had all
been stolen.

Tpey were remanded to next Wednesday, when
the prosecutor is to be in attendance.

HATTON.GARDEN.

A plan of a novel and masterly nature has been
lately contrived, by accomplished thieves, to intro-
duce themselves into the houses of respectable fa-
milies, and to lull suspicion while the amplest and
most favourable opportunities are afforded them of
carrying their designs with very little trouble, and
with scarcely a possibility of preventing them, into
execution. The following case, which was brought
before the sitting Magistrates, Mr. LAING and Mr.
Serjeant SELLON, at this office on Saturday, will fully
develope the plan, prevent perhaps its further exten
sion, and be the means of
.preserving, as well from
the ,hands of. tive"taidslight murderer as the,tlqef,.
the lives and properq. Of -many,.for both are equally
risked and exposed to sacrifice.
A woman of the name of Wood, whose son keeps
a marine-shop in Charles-street, Hatton-garden,
was placed at the bar, on a charge of receiving.
a dozen of wine-glasses, half a dozen of large drink-
ing glasses, and two water-bottles, the property of
Miss Morris, of No. 14, Brunswick-square, know-
ing them to be stolen.
Miss Morris's servant, a middle-aged female, came
forward, and stated that about a fortnight ago, a
man wearing the exterior of an upper servant, and
representing himself as the butler and steward of Sir
Robes t Vaughan, a Welch Baronet, called on Miss
Morris, aisd stated to her that he wanted to engage
a furnished house in London for the residence of his
master and family during the winter season, and, as
her's was in a very desirable situation and to be let,
if she woull approve of accommodating so respect-
able a family, he knew Sir Robert would feel
highly gratified. For this purpose he had, he said,
been sent up to London preparatory to his master
and family leaving home, and he expected their ar-
rival at one of the principal hotels in the course of a
few days, but must in the mean time have a private
house ready for their reception. Miss Morris, sus-
pecting no evil design to be at the bottom of this
plausible tale,told by an individual who had all the
appearance of being the very character he assumed,
believed his statement, and agreed with him to let
the house at the rate of eight guineas a-week. Then
came out the proposition to her of the object at
which alone the fellow aimed, and it was this—that
he should obtain an immediate footing in, and have
free access to, the house during the interval
of his master's absence, and while waiting his ar-
rival in town. He induced Miss Morris to believe
that he was not prepared to take lodgings for him-
self, and prevailed upon her with consummate art- to
accommodate him Hitt' a sleeping room. The ne-
cessary arrangements were accordingly made, and
he slept for several nights in the house, although
Miss Morris and the witness were the only inmates
besides himself; but on Thursday week he ab-
sconded, and it was th2n ascertained that the
fellow was no other than a thief, for the articles
above specified were immediately missed, and there
was the most satisfactory evidence to prove that
it was impossible they could hitve been taken away
_by other hands than his. Miss Morris, however, con-
sidered herself exceedingly fortunate to have been
delivered front so imminent a danger with so incon-
siderable a loss, particularly when she reflected that
her life and the quantity of valuable property she
had in the house were completely at the mercy of a
ruffian. Witness made inquiry after the glasses,
&c., arid with a great deal of difficulty at length
succeeded in tracing four of them, which she pro-
duced and identified, in the possession of the pri-
soner, who acknowledged that she bad purchased
them of a matt answering the description of the
thief. Witness got a police-constable, and gave the
pi isoner in charge.
Mr. LAING immediately despatched Hall the
officer to search the prisoner's shop for the remainder
of the glasses, &c., and in a few minutes the officer
returned with the exact number which Miss Morris
had lost.

The prisoner had given 12s. for the whole to a
man who represented himself to be a respectable
housekeeper, but reduced to the necessity of parting
with them. She believed them to be his own pro-
perty, and had no suspicion of their having beet,
stolen.

The glasses were delivered to the servant, and
the prisoner was discharged upon entering into a re-
cognizance to appear, if called upon at any future
time, to givcrevidence in the case.
The thief was described to be a tall man, of a dark
complexion, and pitted with the mall-pox;s and the,
police-constable stated, that some time ago he had
succeeded, by a similar contrivance, in robbing the
house of a gentleman at the west end of a great dual
of valuable property.
