THE BERMONDSEY MURDER.  The circumstances of Mann;ng's filet from Lcadoe, an the 16th inst., have been stated as follows: It uppers that, on leaving Bainbridge, the ftrnitnre broker, he got into a cab, which conveyed him by back streets and a circuitous route to the South-Western Rail way. There, although formerly a railway guard, and pro. bably therefore known to nanny servants on that line, all trace of him disappears, and he is not again heard of till on beard a steamer bound for the Channel Islands, where, by one of those providential actidents which so frequently occur in the history of great crimes, • young woman to whom his person was known recognised him. She had not then heard of the murder, the news of which only reached her after landing in Guernsey. As we have already stated, when she became aware, of what had happened, she immediately C0111111tali• sited with the governor of the island, who, in his tarn, forwarded the information to the Home-office. In the mean time' Langley, an officer of the detective faros, who was perfectly acquainted with Manning's person, had been despatthed along the South Western line to follow up the clue supplied by the cabman. When the police authoritiesheard that Manning had been recognised en board the steamer to the Channel Islands they despatched Langley thither in quest of him. Soon afar landing at Jersey, the officer had any doubt he might entertain of not being on the right week entirely removed by finding the murderer's lox in • lodging-house, where he had slept for two nights after lancing, and whist& he had left, with a carpet-bag, im the company of another male lodger. Some papers found in the breast pocket of • coat which was among the contents et the box, clearly established the fact that the property belonged to Manning. But the questions then arose, what had become of him since? had he left the it ? and, if so, whither had he gone ? These were points only to be ascertained by cautiously pushing inquiries. At length, however, further tidings were collected. A gentle man saw two men, one of whom carried • carpet-bag, at St. Malo, endeavouring to strike • bargain with a boatman to carry them over to Guernsey. He wham; himself to go there, and, thinking that the persons in question might be disposed to share the expense with him, he went up sea addressed them. On making them if they wished to cross to Guernsey, he was answered in a very surly manner that they did not; and he left them. Shortly after doing so the remarkable resemblance of one of them to the description of Manning struck him, and he communicated the fact to the proper authorities. This confirmed the suspicion that Manning was still in the island, and every precaution was taken to prevent his esnape; but several days passed, end his lurking place remained undiscovered until ten o'clock on Monday night, when, as already stated, • publican at Beaumont gave the information which led to his immediate arrest.  [From the SWI of last eight.) In the course of the (yesterday) morning Mrs. Manning was made acquainted with the capture of her husband at Jersey. On receiving the intelligence she turned pale, and a slight tremm was perceptible, but these symptoms only lasted for a few seconds, and she became as wool and calm as if she was really innocent. When informed th,t Manning had charged her with firing the pistol she said it was false, for she knew nothing: of the murder ; that she was quite innocent of everything connected with it. The prisoner, it will be recollected, is to be brought up for reeitaminstion to-morrow ; but shoul4 Manning not arrive in L ndun in the course of the nigh: or early in the morning, it is undirst.,od that no evidence beyond what is really essential will be gone into.
