MRS. CANDLER'S MURDER.--For several days, or perhapi a fortnight, great exertions have been made to find a little girl of the name of Mellish, who was said to have told a woman in Yarmouth that she was going past Mrs. Candler's house at the time of the murder, and that hearing a voice inside, she went and peeped through the keyhole of the door, where she could clearly see what was done inside, and that she saw Royal and Mapes there. The keyhole has been carefully tried by the magistrates, and it was found, that from the keyhole might clearly be seen what was done inside in the direction of the murdered woman ; but Mellish, who was only eleven or twelve years of age, could nowhere be found. Her father, it seems, is an unbrella mender, and travels the country for this purpose, commonly bivouacking with the cadgers. The girl when in Norwich, called at the station-house, and, telling a tale of great distress, obtained some temporary relief, and though every lodging-house in the city, and many in the county, have since been visited, and rewards offered to produce her, she could not be found till Friday last, when she was seen in Norwich Market-place on the walk. She was at once taken to the station-house, and has evidently had much experience in dt ofat Etaples, ceso:nathe slang of the begging fraternity. Without being asked any questions as to the particular business that she Was wanted for, she was taken off to Yarmouth by Capt. Love, the superintendent of the Yarmouth police, who has for the last fortnight come to Norwich nearly every n Wednesday morning a day, and sometimes twice a day, hoping that she might Boulogne teen an East Indiabe found.

On inquiries being instituted, the report was found to be too true, and it was said that 29. —On owing to the high sea, and the inaccessible nature of the coast, the whole of the crew had met a watery grave. Immediately on the report being authenticated, Mr. Hamilton, her Majesty's Consul, and Commander Hamilton, his son, proceeded to the spot to afford all the assistance in their power—though it is feared that, on account of the violence of the storm, and the total wreck which the vessel presents, all their efforts will prove unavailing, and but little of the property be saved. The name of the vessel is unknown, as her stern was dashed to pieces by the fury of the waves. Her loss is attributed to her having missed stays. She was being driven on a lee shore, and when she attempted to tack, her rudder proved totally useless ; in a short time she struck on a ridge of rocks, and although the inhabitants of Etaples used the utmost exertions to save the crew, no boat could reach them, and they perished miserably, within hearing from the coast, end after hiving passed thousands of miles to arrive at their country which they were destined never snore to see. It is the universal belief of sailors that if she had been able to get her head round she would have weathered out the storm in safety. The galliot Phoenix, of Malines, Captain G. Kuiper, arrived here on Wednesday, with stem and bows stove in, bowsprit broken, and much other damage, having, on her voyage from Lirerpool to Antwerp, been in con tact with a large barque, name unknown, off Dungeness, early the same morning. Also arrived on Wednesday, the schooner Fanny, of Jersey, Captain Thomas Amy, from Demerara for London, laden with rum, having lost anchor. part of chain, several sails, eith datnav ie hull and rigging, in the gale on Sunday last —Dover Chronicle.
