POLICE.  BOW-STREET.  Mrs.Vermilloe, the landlady of the Pear-tree pub. lic-house;andTurner, theman who lodged iu thehouse of Williamson, who was barbarously murdered, have attended at the Office within these few days. Several other persons have attended at the Office within the,e few days, by order of Mr. GRAHAM, and have under. gone private and strict investigations before that Magistrate, which caused him to dispatch Lavendet, Vickery, and Adkins, on Friday evening, to apprehend a man of the name of Hart, who, it has been ascertained, worked in the house of Mr. Marr on the day the murders were committed at night, and he was seen in the company of Williams between ten and eleven o'clock, as the murderers were supposed So have entered Mr. Mares house about twelve o'clock. On Saturday Hart underwent a private examination before Mr.Gambiro, after which he was ordered into close confinement, and a man to take care and sit up with, him. On Saturday, the privy of the house where Hart lodged, was emptied in the presence of Vickery and Adkins, but nothing particular was found.  The church of St. Nicholas, at Stettin, in which the French garrison had deposited 40,000 quintals of hay, was, on the Bth December, entirely consumed, with its contents. _ _  The magnificent church of Montreal', near Paler. me, was burnt to the ground on the tith ult. It was an antique strucfu..e, and contained many carious monuments of ancient 'kings. The entrails of St. Louis, who died before Tunis, and whose body was conveyed to France, were deposited in it. By the late improved regulations of admission into the British Museum, 29,000 persons have been admitted in a season, instead of 15,000 as before; and with liberty to remain in any of the rooms as long as they pleased. Captain Bullock, late of the Norfolk Militia. has o been committed to Norwich Gaol under Lord Ellenborough's Act. It appears that the pound at Thorpe had been removed from its old site to a piece of ground nearly opposite the residence of the Captain, I who, conceiving the removal to be an infringement upon his property, encircled it with a fence. Shortly after, the pindar of the parish coming to impound a mule, applied to him for entrance, which being refused, he proceeded to force an opening throo,,h ! the fence. Upon this Captain B. pro!►abiy to make a shew of supporting his right, tired a gun at the  parties. • The death of Mr. E YLES, of Margate, has occasioned a vacancy for a Resident-Surgeon to the General Sea-bathing Infirmary. We suppose that a situation which affords so comfortable a retreat to a Practitioner, desirous of yetiring from active professional life, will he much sought after. The long .c ontinued war has had the effect to wean the inhabitants of South America from the use of many of our manufactures, which we formerly exported in great quantities to that great quarter of the world. The Mexicans are said to have made considerable progress in those Arts, which they never thought of cultivating till this mischievous war forced them to attempt it. The Country Bank, which stopped payment is consequence of the failure of Boi.nrato and Co. we are happy to see, by an advertisement in one.of the Lincolnshire Tillers, has resumed its payments; under some alteration in the firm.
