CASE OF POISONING AT AMPTHILL

The county of Bedford has just become the scene of a deed
of almost unexampled atrocity. Mr. Crouch, a farmer he
the neighbourhood of Ampthill, has a sister who keeps his
house, the remainder of the establishment consisting of two
female servants. A few days since, owing to the bad con-
duct of these two women, servants, they received notice to
quit Mr. Crouch's service ; but the housemaid apologised,
and was forgiven. The cook, however, sullenly refused to
make any concession, and her place was about to be supplied
by another. Yesterday (Sunday) Mr. Crouch's married
sister, who resides at a little distance, and her two daugh-
ters, came over to Ampthill for the purpose of attending
church ; but there being no service they called on their
relati% e, and partook of some cake which had been prepared
by the cook on the preceding day. Immediately after par-
taking of the cake the young ladies became violently sick,
and one of them, who had eaten more of the cake than
the others, became alarmingly ill. Medical aid was called
in, and two of the ladies were relieved by copious vomitting,
but the case of the third baffled all the aid of medicine, and
she remained in the most intense agony until death released
her from further suffering, about twelve o'clock last night.
Not content with poisoning the cake, the wretched woman,
who knew that her master did not eat cake. actually mixed
a large portion of the poison (arsenic) in the sauce for a beef-
steak she was ordered to prepare for her master's dinner.
The alarming illness of the young ladies who had partaken
of the cake had happily excited suspicion, and led to an ex-
amination of the food thus impregnated with death. The
cake has been analysed, and found to contain a very large
portion of arsenic ; as has also the sauce for the steak, with
a similar result. The wretched woman is in custody, and
awaits the investigation of the coroner's jury, which is sum-
moned for this evening.
The excitement in the neighbourhood is extreme. The
atrocity of the crime itself, the deliberate depravity by which
it was contemplated, the coolness with which the preparations
were made, and the sad results which had marked its com-
pletion, contribute to render it a case of almost unequalled
atrocity in the annals of crime.

COTTON MARKET, OCTOBER 6.

The demand for Cotton to-day has been only very moderate, and
the market has appeared quiet and inanimate; the sales are esti-
mated at 3500 bales of all descriptions, at yesterday's prices—
certainly not lower—perhaps rather in favour of the seller, which
with a quiet feeling, is rather unusual.

COTTON MARKET, OCTOBIIR 7,

Oar Cotton market • to-day has been very heavy and flat ; the
emand has not been for more than 2 to 2509 bales, principally in
i merican descriptions, 200 of which are on speculation account.
T e Indian overland mail may stimulate the demand a little, other-
wis . we shall remain in the. present torpid state until the trade
really mends. It is evident that a temporary impulse in prices
cannot be maintained until this is the case. and if over production
can be stopped by the suspension of machinery, the supply must
shortly be equivalent to the demand, and a healthier state of things
be thus brought about.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, OCT. 7

The want of demand, noticeable in the London market, for But-
ter, has had very little effect here. Fine qualities, which are scarce,
command fully as much money, and go off with much steadiness.
Pickled Butter has been sought after during the last few days,
principally, however, we rather think by speculators : the currency
of the article is unaltered. Beef and Pork are in request, particu-
larly the finer descriptions. Bacon and Hams steady.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, OCTOBER 5

The arrivals into this port from Ireland form a moderate
quantity of Wheat, Oats, and Oatmeal, whilst of o'-her arti-
cles thence, pr of any Coastwise, the receipts since last
Tuesday are trivial; from the Continental ports of Europe
and from Canada, however, we have to note a further good
supply of Wheat and Flour, as stated below.
The following are the quantities of Grain, Flour, and Oat-
meal computed to remain in Liverpool on the 30th Sept.,
1841 :

In Bond.—Wheat, quarters ; Barley, 5,194 quarters ;
Oats, 13,773 quarters ; Rye, 1,897 quarters ; Beans, 50,208
quarters ; Pease, quarters ; Flour, quarters.
Free.—Wheat, 160,000 quarters; Barley, 1,000 quarters ;
Oats, 15,000 quarters; Rye, quarters; Beans, 4,500
quarters ; Pease, 12,000 quarters ; Flour, 1,000 sacks and
140,000 barrels; Oatmeal, 20,000 loads.
After several days of fine weather, we had a return of rain
ast evening, and to-day appears very unsettled : if general
the remnant of the harvest in the remote situations of the
north will be further delayed ; which, combined with the
prospect of much higher duties on Wheat and Flour, and the
eager demand existing in all the importing markets in the
kingdom for the released stocks of foreign, serve to impart
increasing firmness to the trade here.

moned for this evening.

The excitement in the neighbourhood is extreme. The
atrocity of the crime itself, the deliberate depravity by which
it was contemplated, the coolness with which the preparations
were made, and the sad results which had marked its com-
pletion, contribute to render it a case of almost unequalled
atrocity in the annals of crime.

iTTF,MPT AT AIUIIDER

ST. ALBAN'S, MONDAY, OCTOBER 4.—This morning this
town and neighbourhood was thrown into a state of great
excitement by a report that a young woman had been mur-
dered at an obscure public-house, called the Bout, by a sol-
dier, with whom she cohabited. On inquiry, it was found
that there was but too much foundation for the report ; for,
although the girl is not dew?, the injury she has received is so
great that but slight hopes are entertained of her recovery.
At twelve o'clock Mr. Rumball, the mayor, and Messrs.
Lipscombe, Coles, Osbaldiston, and Kinder, borough ma-
gistrates, assembled at the Town-hall to investigate the af-
fair. The accused party was in custody. His name is Jauez
Kirk ; he is about 18 years of age, belongs to the 74th regi-
ment of foot, and presented a most unpreoossessing appear-
ance. The following evidence furnishes the main facts of
the case :

John Lacy, one of the borough police, proved being sent
for, about a quarter before seven o'clock this morning, to the
Boot public-house, in the Abbey parish. On entering the
house, the landlord informed him that a soldier had commit-
ted murder in his house. On going up stairs to a bedroom,
the prisoner met him at the door, and said, " Lacy, take me ;
1 have cut her throat," pointing at the same time to the girl
Pearce, who was lying on a bed in the room the prisoner
came out of. Witness immediately seized him by the two
wrists, and sat him on another bed in the same room. He
trembled very much, and the upper part of his person was
covered with blood. He had no shirt on, only his trousers
and shoes. His face was so much covered with blood that
he could scarcely distinguish his features. There was no
blood on his trousers. Witness asked the prisoner what he
had done it with ? He replied, with a razor, and that it was
on the bed where the woman was lying. He looked among
the bed clothes for the razor, but could not find it, when Jane
Pearce pulled the bed a little up as well as she could, and
between the bed and the matress he found the razor he pro-
duced. [The witness produced the razor, which was covered
with blood.] He asked the prisoner if lie had any reason
for committing the act, but he shook his head, and made
no answer. The prisoner also pointed out to witness his
shirt. On being produced, it was found to be covered with
blood, and very much torn. The quantity of blood on the
left side was the greatest. The prisoner washed himself in
witness's presence, but had no wounds on his own person.
He saw Jane Pearce lying on a bed with her throat very much
cut. There was also a cut on the right arm, another on the
right hand, and several more on her left shoulder, while the
bed and the room bore ample traces of the prisoner's crime.
Several other witnesses spoke to many other necessary
facts, and the prisoner was remanded for further examina-
tion.

THE CORN LAWS

The Hon. and Rev. Baptist Noel's " Plea for the Poor,"
while it has been profitable to himself, has been far from un-
profitable to the cause of truth. It has brought forth " Fifty
Searching Questions," addressed to the Rev. Chaplain of
Royalty, and "intended as an Antidote to his recent dange-
rous and exciting Pamphlet," from " A Clergyman of the
United Church of England and Ireland."
These questions are eminently qualified to disabuse the
unthinking of many popular anti-corn law fallacies ; and to
render the antidote still more efficacious they are published
in a form rivalling Mr. Noel's " Plea" in cheapness. Their
extensive circulation would, we think, be serviceable to re-
move error. The following are specimens of these searching
interrogatories :-
1 DOES THE LANDLORD'S SHARE OF THE FOUR-POUND
LOAF EXCEED ONE FARTHING AND A HALF?
2 If the landlords were thrown into the sea, and the land
to be enjoyed rent free, conld the four-pound loaf be reduced
by more than that amount? _ _

3. Is not the material—the raw material (as it were—viz.,
the threshed wheat)—produced when wheat is at the high
price of 655, at 6d a loaf?
4. Do not the miller, the baker, and the speculator, divide
the remainder amongst them ?
5. Then what becomes of your charge against the land-
lords, implied in the inflammatory use you have made (in p.
14) of the text, " He shall judge the poor of the people ;
He shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in
pieces the oppressor 1 I"
6. Do not you advocate the repeal of the corn laws on the
ground that it will cheapen bread ?
7. Does not Mr. M'Culloch, your own advocate, as stated
in your pamphlet, aver that it will not cheapen bread, for
that foreign wheat cannot be sold under 50s. to 545. a
quarter ?
8. Does not the quarter of wheat produce one hundred
and thirty 4-lb loaves; and is not that, at 505., within the
smallest fraction, fourpence three farthings a loaf ?
9. Then, at a very high price of British wheat (655.,) and
the lowest price, according to Mr. M'Culloch, of foreign
wheat, would the difference in a 4-lb loaf to the poor man be
more than one penny farthing ?
10. Do you think that the poor man would accept this re-
duction (even if it were a certainty, which it by no means is,
for British wheat, under the present system, is sometimes as
low as 405.) at the risk of having his wages materially lowered,
by the influx of six millions of agriculturists, or a great pro-
portion thereof, thrown out of employment by the non-
cultivation of British land ?
11. What, then, becomes of your cry for cheap bread ? Is
it not a delusion ?
12. What too, becomes of the manufacturer's cry,
'• Cheapen food; you will thereby cheapen labour, and en-
able us to compete with the foreigner in manufactures ?" is
it not moonshine?
We may had, that to the second issue of this brochure, an
appendix is added, containing a candid and spirited reply to
a private letter addressed by Mr. Noel to the writer.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, OCT. 7

The want of demand, noticeable in the London market, for But-
ter, has had very little effect here. Fine qualities, which are scarce,
command fully as much money, and go off with much steadiness.
Pickled Butter has been sought after during the last few days,
principally, however, we rather think by speculators : the currency
of the ..rtacle is unaltered. Beef and Pork are in request, particu-
larly the miner descriptions. Bacon and Hams steady.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, OCTOBER 5.
The arrivals into this port from Ireland form a moderate
quantity of Wheat, Oats, and Oatmeal, whilst of other arti•
cies thence, or of any Coastwise, the receipts since last
Tuesday are trivial; from the Continental ports of Europe
and from Canada, however, we have to note a further good
supply of Wheat and Flour, as stated below.
The following are the quantities of Grain, Flour, and Oat-
meal computed to remain in Liverpool on the 30th Sept.,
1841:
. _ .

in Bond.—Wheat, quarters ; Barley, 5,194 quarters ;
Oats, 13,773 quarters ; Rye, 1,897 quarters ; Beans, 50,208
quarters ; Pease, quarters ; Flour, quarters.
Free.—Wheat, 160,000 quarters ; Barley, 1,000 quarters ;
Oats, 15,000 quarters ' • Rye, quarters ; Beans, 4,500
quarters ; Pease, 12,000 quarters ; Flour, 1.000 sacks and
140,000 barrels ' • Oatmeal, 20,000 loads.
After several days of fine weather, we had a return of rain
ast evening, and to-day appears very unsettled : if general
the remnant of the harvest in the remote situations of the
north will be further delayed ; which, combined with the
prospect of much higher duties on Wheat and Flour, and the
eager demand existing in all the importing markets in the
kingdom for the released stocks of foreign, serve to impart
increasing firmness to the trade here.
At this day's market therefore, all descriptions of foreign
Wheat were held steadily at 2d per 70 lbs over the rates of
Tuesday last ; but the millers having bought freely of late,
the advance was reluctantly paid, and the transactions, al-
though moderately fair, were by no means considerable.—
Of Irish new Wheats several parcels appeared to-day, the
quality of which was extremely varied, and ranged from Ss
to 9s per 70 lbs.
Flour continuing in improved request, was is per sack and
Is per barrel dearer.
Barley, remaining scarce, fully maintained its previous va-
lue.—Malt also commanded former prices.—Beans and Peas,
upon a limited demand, were the turn cheaper.
Although in Oats we had very little business passing to-
day, prices remained unvaried.
Oatmeal being rather more saleable, good qualities of old
were Gd per 240 lbs higher, and new supported our list quo-
tations.
