The planet Venus is now a beautiful object in the S.W. immediately after sunset; setting this evening at about eight minutes before seven o'clock, and about two minutes later every evening, till the end of January. An unfortunate accident lately happened at Mush. selburgh, under the following circumstances:-,—A per= son who had absconded from Manchester with a coa-1 siderable sum of money belonging to his employers, was traced to a house in Musselburgh, where he was apprehended by an officer from England and assistants. The prisoner was removed to Muir's Inn pre, paratory to being brought to Edinburgh, and having made considerable resistance, handcuffs were put upon him, which not answering properly, were taken off to be adjusted, when the prisoner again became very. obstreperous, and the officer was forced to fire his pistol at him; at the instant an assistant unluckily came in between, when the ball broke his arm, and lodged in his side. In the confusion, the culprit leaped the window and escaped. The ball was easily extracted from the poor man's side, but amputation of the arm was deemed necessary.  Dow-sraerr.—Yesterday, a fellow cailipg himself James wilt, skew, a Manchester bargeman, was brought up by Upton's party of patrol, charged With several violent and most unmanly as:. units upon femalci. The prisoner, it appeared, and several others of the fraternity, ivhose barges are lying in the Regent's Canal, near the City-road, have for several nights past stationed themselves on the bridge in the road, and made a practice of in.. suiting every woman that passed in the grossest possible manner. Monday night, a poor woman, of the name of Hall, was passing the bridge with her husband, when the prisoner caught hold of her in an indecent manner, and endeavoured to force her front her husband; but on the litter skewing some resistance, the prisoner ran away. lie soon after attacked a Mrs. Day, who wan passing the same spot with her father and husband, the latter having a child in his arms. She resisted, slipped from him and ran away, whelk he pursued, caught, and threw her en the ground with great violence, and on the father and husband attempting to interfere, he knocked them both down, and fled to his barge upon the tnal, whither he was followed by a patrol; but he brandished a cutlass, and swore he would murder the Hest b— that attempted to lay hold of hint. Assistance, however; arriving, he was secured.—Mrs. Day, whom he last assaulted; was brought into the Office from a coach. She was in an ad.. vanced state of pregnancy, and was in a truly pitiable condition from the treatment she had received. She fainted once while in the Office, and it was with the utmost difficulty that she could support herself in her seat while under examination. Mr. Holmes; of Brook-street, and another Gentleman, bore testimony to the conduct of the prisoner, which they described as the most fensdons that could be conceived. The prisoner stoutly denied that he was the man. The Magistrate (Mr. HALLS), reprobated the conduct of the prisoner in the strongest terms, and said, he felt ashamed that any Englishman could have been guilty of actions so unmanly. He was committed till he shall find good bail. CORN EXCHANGR, MASIC•LAPZ, Nov. 14.—A very large quark tity of Wheat remained over from Monday's supply, in addition to which we had several vessels fresh in this morning from Furfolk, but the trade continues exceedingly heavy, having no de. mand, except for prime samples, which still maintain last week's prices ; but all other sorts were unsaleable, and prices nearly nominal. Prime Malting Barley sold on full as good terms as on Monday, and there was very little of inferior quality. Oats and Beans are rather cheaper, the supply of each being much larger than the immediate consumption can take off. White Peas are 2s. per quarter cheaper, slid very dull sole at that abatement.  }
