A CONJUGAL COUPLE.—So violent are the dissensions
between the Queen of Spain and her husband, that she
gave express orders that he should not be allowed to
occupy apartments in the palace during her absence from
Madrid, and sentries were posted for the purpose of en-
forcing obedience.

ATROCIOUS MURDER IN PARIS.—On Sunday week a
murder was committed in the Hotel de Turin, Paris, un-
der remarkable circumstances. That day an elderly Pied-
montese gentleman, named Terre, had taken possession
of a small apartment in the hotel, and being infirm in his
limbs, was attended by a female 24 years of age as his
nurse. In the evening a man came to the hotel with some
provisions, and from his representations that tl
for the invalid was allowed to go to the invalid
Ile remained some hours, when a struggle and cries were
heard from the apartment. One of the servants, on going
up stairs to learn the cause, met the man, who was coming
down in great haste, and who told him Mademoiselle
Boele (the nurse), had been taken ill, and that he was has-
tening for a physician. The servant went up and found
the young nurse lying dead and streaming with blood from
several wounds inflicted upon her with a table knife, in
-presence of her master. wl

must be fallacious. If distribution NI
production could not exist. Every hungry man, every
ragged beggar, every unfurnished dwelling is an emphatic
protest against this doctrine. Nature prompts us all to
consume, and any human law or any social regulation
which forbids the realisation of what nature dictates, must
be accounted vicious. Give the great body of the people
a sufficient share of the produce of their labour, in other
words, give them high wages, and every warehouse and
every shop would rapidly be cleared of its goods. The
doctrine of over-production, then, is a fallacy which seeks
to disguise the want of equitable digtribution. Again it
is said that we are over-populated. If so, why do we
make gigantic efforts to force a foreign trade ? Is not
that done to find consumers of our commodities ? If all
our people were able to purchase, should we hear anything
of over-population ? Does it not seem strange that we
should export our manufactures to the extreme boundaries
of the earth, while the producers of those manufactures
are shirtless, shoeless, and stockingless ? (Cheers.) We
act upon a system which pauperises labour, and then ex-
claim that our numbers are too great ; we destroy our
home trade by low prices, and it is only because we de-
preciate labour by insufficient wages that the fallacy of the
proposition receives a superficial covering. There is no as-
signable limit to our production, neither is there to con-
sumption ; the greater the numbers, the greater ought to be
consumption, and such would practically be the case did not
a vicious law of distribution, of our own enactment, thwart
the operation of the laws of nature. Emigration is ano-
ther remedy proposed for existing distress. I have given

sent. T. M. Dove, Esq., the manager, read the report,
which stated the amount carried to profit and loss up to
Christmas, 1846, was £61,139 Os. 3d. " From this sum,
however, is to be deducted £3,400, the amount of losses
since paid, incurred on insurances, effected or renewed
within the year 1846. A review of the six months just
elapsed showed that the anticipations of extended business
which were conjectured in March are now made certain,
so that, notwithstanding the reduction of the rates for fire
insurance which has been effected in the interval, by the
united consent of this and other offices, whereby the mer-
chants of Liverpool have been relieved in some cases to
the PYfiant of nn ince than All -e _

ova aav acoo valClll .11/ per cent or the C.
erto made, it can yet be stated that the fire premiums re-
ceived by the company for the six months ending 30th
June last, exceed the amount received in the correspond-
ing period of the last year by no less than 16 per cent.,
whilst the sum assured, which tests more clearly the actual
increase, as being unaffected by the reduction of rates
which has taken place, exhibits an increase of full 30 per
cent. The losses on fire risks during the same period was
so remarkably low as £6OO. But a glance at the life busi-
ness exhibited still more pointedly shows the rapid advances

sums assured on lives from the commencement of the com-
pany's business, viz. :—June to December, 1845, inclusive,
£23,349 ; year 1646, £46,767 ; January to June, 1847, in-
clusive, £43,287. The number of shares allotted to the
30th June last was 86,410, and the capital paid up conse-
quently now amounts to £172,820. The directors recom-

should not exceed 2s. 6d. per share clear of income tax,
being at the rate of five per cent on the paid-up capital for
the eighteen months ending 31st December, 1846. On
the motion of the chairman, the report was unanimously
adopted.—Mr. F. Grundy thought the amount of profits
would justify a laz:ger dividend, and moved as an nnipmi_

g..,0 all
that it should be 4s. per share. Mr. Bigham se-
conded the motion. Mr. J. B. Moore, however, and se-
veral other gentlemen opposed the amendment, which Mr.
Grundy eventually withdrew.—The retiring directors were
then re-elected, and after some formal proceedings, a vote
of thanks was passed to P. M. Dove, Esq., the manager,
and to M. Gray, the assistant manager.

In giving a brief description of these magnificent struc-

subject of companionship, and personal danger from
taking up with strangers that may casually be met with
en route.

and complexioned, fell-like satyr;—thirdly, by an Arab,
who was afterwards bastinadoed for insulting the Consul

English, Irish, and

the very many a

surrounded by wild fig-trees and roses, where we saw a
cowled monk with a face like Dante, and listened to the
rumbling of carriages through the grotto of Posileppo,
like to the roaring of a distant sea —even here, amidst
these sublime associations, my Yankee churn grudged a

lease that bore date July, 1845. The plaintiff w::0
worker at Sheffield, and was possessed of a house which,
for some time, had been used as a grocer's shop. The
defendant was a grocer, and, for the purpose of carrying
on his trade, he took a lease of that house from the plain-
tiff. He was to pay £3O a-year for it, and he entered
into the usual covenants. One of those was to keep the
premises in repair, and it was expressly mentioned that
he was to keep the interior of the house in repair ; and
there was another covenant, which restrained him from
letting the premises. The allegation was, that the defen-
dant had broken these covenants, for he had taken down
a partition between the shop and the parlour, and he had
admitted into the shop a person of the name of Wood-
burn. He received from Woodburn the sum of £lOO for
the goodwill, and he had let the premises for £4O a-year,
being £lO a-year more than he had agreed to pay the
the plaintiff. Damsges were sought for the alteratior
made, and also for the letting to Woodburn.

citement prevailed in this town on Wednesday week in
consequence of Mr. Farrer having announced his inten-
tion to address the electors from the King's Head Inn, at
three o'clock in the afternoon. At the appointed time his
carriage drove up to the inn, where he was received with
deafening yells and hisses from the assemblage ; and in

front of the inn was stationed a man dressed in red (Mr.
F.'s colour), mounted on a donkey, and carrying an effigy
suspended on a gibbet. Another person carried a pole,
on the top of which was a loaf of bread), and underneath,
in large letters, " Protection is shaken !" Sundry other
devices were exhibited, demonstrative of the popular feeling
towards Mr. Fairer; and, on his appearance on the bal-
cony, a disgraceful scene ensued. He was saluted with a
perfect shower of penny rolls and red herrings, accom-
panied by the most discordant noises imaginable ; and
seventeen squares of glass in the windows were demolished.
All this he bore very patiently, and made several attempts
to speak. He could not, however, obtain a hearing, the

crowd being determined to " put him down." Mr.-Mor-
ritt, of Rokeby Hall, next made his appearance; and
although a popular man in the district, he could not in-
duce the crowd to hear Mr. Farrer. One person in the

boy got his thigh broken by pie of the carriage horses.—
