BOW-STREET.  THE ATTEMPTED MURDER. IN COVENT GARDEN.—Janes Murphy was placed at the bar, on remand, charged with cutting and wounding Mary Anne, Jennings, with intent to murder her.  Mr. Lewis, of Ely-place, said he was instructed by the family of Miss Jennings to prosecute the prisoner at the bar on the charge of attempting to murder the young lady-. He regretted to say that since the last examination there was little improvement in the state of Miss Jennings. Ho hold in his hand a certificate from Dr. Travers, the medical officer of Charing-cross Hospital, which was as follows : " Miss Mary Anuo Jennings is not in a fit state to appear at the police-court to-day." " Charing-cross Hospital, Nov 4."  Mr. Lewis further said ho was afraid that Miss Jennings would not bo sufficiently recovered to appear at the expiration of another week, if even she survived the injuries she had received. Under these circumstances ho had to ask his worship to remand the prisoner for another week, as he (Mr. Lewis) was aware that there was no power to enable a magistrate to remand for a longer period.  Mr. Abrams, who appeared for the prisoner, said another remand was unquestionably necessary, though the certificate was somewhat vaguely worded, as it did not set forth those details which Mr. Lewis had stated. He was sorry the young lady could not attend, but he earnestly hoped that there was no ground for apprehending a fatal result. Mr. Flowers said the position of the prisoner would not be at all injured by the granting a further remand. The proceeding with the case at the present time would not be of the slightest benefit to him.  Mr. Abrams was quite of that opinion. He hoped his worship did not understand him to object to another remand.  Mr. Lewis observed that it would bo bettor to make the remand for eight days. Mr. Flower thought that would bo the most judicious way, and the prisoner was accordingly remanded until Wednesday woek.  stati on-house, when she revived, and walked the remainder of the distance.  Mr. Partridge said the conduct of the prisoner was very brutal in beating the woman into a state of insensibility, and then kicking her. The only reason he did not send the prisoner to gaol without the option of paying a fine was that the complainant assaulted his mother, and that he was labouring under excited feelings in consequence. He fined the prisoner £5, and in default of payment two months' imprisonment.  Liverpool Cotton Market—This Da:  Market op*s quiet and prices are easier. Sales, probably 5,000 bales.  Business of New Orleans.  The receipts of the port of New Orleans for Customs alone for the mouth of September are stated as follows :  For imports in September, paid in gold 5995,626 30 For fees, &c., paid in currency 6,938 07  Total  $232,564 37  • We will compare the above statement with the figures for the month of September, 1861, and it will be seen how immense, comparatively, is the increase :  For imports paid in gold $25,143 32 For fees, &c., paid in currency  Total 527,654 95  Or to recapitulate and show the difference more clearly:— Collections for September, 1865 5232,564 37 Collections for September, 1864  Differenco in favor of 1865 5204,909 42  This added to the Internal Revenue collections, which aro now fully three-quarters of a million per month, show that New Orleans is now paying nearly a million dollars per month, after deducting expenses, into the National Treasury, and it would be impossible to do this without considerable business was being transacted. Imports of foreign goods to the New Orleans market have been very extensive, and it is predicted that French and English dry goods, wines, and fancy articles, will soon be cheaper in New Orleans than in New York. The ship llymdall arrived at New Orleans a few days ago with a cargo on which duties had to bo paid before the goods could be delivered to the consignees, amounting to $115,000, in gold; and this is only ono illustration of the rapidly improving trade of this port.
