LATEST INTELLIGENCE.  THE WAR IN PERSIA.  THE SUICIDE OF GENERAL STALKER AND COMMODORE ETIIERIDGE.  We have this day received the following despatch from our agent at Alexandria : "The verdict, on General Stalker's body was that the late Me.:lor-Oeneml came by his death from a pistol Ara inflicted by his own hand, in a fit of teml;orary insanity. " There was no paper left to indicate th`.4% and he was merely heard to complain that tk4 3rd Cavalry was not given him; and also was uneasy about the responsibility of sheltering tke European troops during the approaching hot weather. " The verdict on CAnsmodore Etheridge was, that he destroyed himself with his own hand, while suffering under mental aberration, brought about by long continued anxiety connected with the duties of his command."  The agent of the Peninsular and Oriental Company at Alexandria sends the following : " Before the news of the conclusion of peace with Persia could reach us an expedition to Mohammorah sailed from Beath* on the 19th March, under the personal command of Sir James Outrans. " The force arrived in the mouth of the Euphrates on the 21st. On the 24th it moved towards the feet, and opened a brisk fire at daybreak of the 26th. The Persians replied with spirit, but in the end the superiority of our squadron was manifest, and our troops having landed advanced upon the entre:bawd camp of the enemy, who fled immediately, leaving behind them their tents, stores, &c. "The loss of the enemy has been estimated at 200 killed.  " A mutiny of the flepoys of the 19th Bengal Native Infantry has ended in the disbanding of the corps• " The Governors of the Presidencies are at the seats of their administration.  " A further improvement hu taken place in our money market, and we have to report a further rise in 4 per cent. paper.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.  (nom ova °vow  PARIS, SUNDAY iT=llllO.  The assassin Verger (whose name some people DOW say is spelt, not Veres, as at first, but Vergd) has been transferred from Maas to the Conciergerie, to await his trial. He is an secret, and watched night and day, to prevent him from committing suicide. On being asked whether he had chosen an advocate to defend him, he replied that he did not want one, and was prepared to defend himself. It is even reported that he threatened ,to make disci*. MIMS which would necessarily lead to his pardon. The French law does not allow a man to be tried fbr his life without the aid of counsel, and, when a prisoner refuses to name one, the court appoints ex officio an advocate to defend him. In the present ease the president has selected M. Nogent-Saint Laurens. It is confirmed that the trial will take place on Saturday, the 17th, and that M. le Premier President Delanglo will preside.

Register-house, Beverley. Mr. Meister' hadin his employ Henry Barker, as gardener, and Ellen Hatfield, es housemaid, between whom en intimacy existed, and it was expeettd they would be married. On Friday afternoon the female Fervent went, as it is supposed, to have some conversation with the gardener, and not making her appearance at tea time, she was called for, and did not answer. About half-peat seven the servants in the house began to be alarmed, and seta to Baker's house, and found he had not been there since diem r. They then searched part of the garden, which is a large one, with caadlee. but found nothing. They waited anxiously until abut 11 o'clock, and sent for Mr.llobiaa in at the borough geol. It was also discovered that Dot, had taken his nuns and money from hie relatives. R. 1.11.012 then gave information to Mr. Dove the superintendent of police, who, with other parties, again mouthed the garden and, In • short time, were shocked with a most awful spectacle. The gardener WWI found laid in a pool of blood, with his throat cut, and just breathing. The poor woman was also discovered about a yard and a half from him, with her heed nearly revered from her body, and life had been extinct some time. The gardener was removed into the house, and the mayor and Mr. Bonbon were soon in attendance. He is still alive, but not the slightest hope is eutertiinist of his recovery. Some letters were found on the person of Go: deceased which will partly explain the motive for the awful deed. Baker was a quiet inoffensive man, but has be, n rather 10W in spirits lately. The unfortunate deceased had been with Mr. Handers some time and was highly rh.pocted. Her fellow servants slam Guest's ate very little dinner and seemed to be out of spirits.
