FREDERICK•STREET MURDER.  Considerable excitement yesterday prevailed in this city in consequence of _a report being generally circulated  that a man answering the description of the foreigner Zuchelli, the suspected murderer of Eliza Davies, of the King's Arms, Layton-place, London, had been taken into custody here on the preceding evening. On Wednesday the individual above referre to arrived at the Plough publichouse, Southgate-street. In consequence of his appearing in an agitated and distressed condition, and being destitute of the means of providing for his subsistence, the  landlady, Mrs. Garvan. made_ his case known to Mr. Douglas, the relieving officer for that district of the Bath Union. Mr. Douglas immediately called at the house, and finding the statement made by Mrs. Garvan to be correct, he. offered the applicant an order for admission into the workhouse until such time that he might recover from his indisposition. This offer he readily accepted. It was not till Sunday evening that the relieving officer had any suspicion that the foreigner confined iii the workhouse was the,  Idividual who had—beru guilty of- the dreadful Crime whiclt as been just perpetrated in the metropolis: The desc rip—  tion of the supposed murderer, as given in some of the: London papers, so exactly accorded with that of tha prt— s'iner, that Mr. Douglas was induced at once to have Lima taken into custody on suspicion, and he immediately applied to Hall, the chief city officer, for that purpose. Whetx brought into the governor's room at the workhouse, the prisoner still continued to be greatly agitated. The first step taken by the officer was to examine his clothes and papers, to► see if any thing could be found on his person, so that his identity might be clearly proved. In reply to a question as to what direction he was taking on his journey he stated that  he had just landed at Southampton, from France, and was: proceeding on his way to London. He also said that he had never been in the metropolis of England. On being asked 171. the officer where he purchased several articles of his wer.E.  iog apparel, he replied he bought them in Havre ; btrt it was discovered, on examining his hat, that it had the, mark of " Perring, maker, Strand, London." His boots, :although stated to have been obtained at the same place, were stamped with the maker's name," West, Arcade, Strand,, London." Some papers, too, found on his person, would seem to make it appear that he was not altogethera stranger in this country. It should also be borne in mind that via:  Bath is rather a circuitous route from Southampton too London. The particulars and depositions which were yes— terday taken before the- Worshipful the Mayor have beers. transmitted to Sir F. Roe ; and when an answer, witht other particulars, shall have been received, the examination will belurther proceeded with. The accused has given hiss name as Eugene Courreir.—Bath and Cheltenham Gaiettc4  The uthiecan is a small "fish which is found in ti-ge rivers in the neighbourhood of the rocky mountains in An-,erica. This fish, of which the colour is a bright yellow, is SO rich that it may be burned, in case of need, instead of a can-. die ; and indeed in this way it is frequently employed by the . natives. The uthlecan makes its appearance in immens e shoals and luminous mastics. The native Indians tz:ke in small nets in enormous quantities. They are eaten. dried, and in this state they are hung up in rows in the hut* of -013 natives as dried fruit is among us.
