M'Laren , Mr . Baird s feiewl . and a writer to the signet , his agent , came aad toU me to pro « tia refreshment ; M'LaseasavA ho would be responsible . In the coarse of the evenin" 200 people came and had whiskey , brandy , and rum cordial . ( Hear . ) An order came to let them have drink . " lie isould now Tefer to the evidence ci several respectable inhabitants of these burghs . The respectable portion of the inhabitants of such burghs would be greatly to blame if they

      did cot denounce the scenes of dissipation that they saw around them . Even seven righteous men might £ « " 3 such a burgh , from becoming a political Gerstorrah . Dr . U . imilton , of Falkirk . returniughome ¦ fee night before the election , states , — " I observed two yout ' is lyine fa the middle of the road , and loucd tbem bothin a beastly state of intoxication . On addressiuff them , one exclaimed , ' Oh , there ' s open house io-ni ^ ht at WaujjhV " The Rer Alexander \ i'F < rlane , minister of the united Presbyterian Church , states— " I was coming home the jii g ht before the election from the Carron Works . 1 met a-greatmsny people , and Baw so much deihoralis : uion : l- to make me believe thai it would neutralise all the good that might have been otherwise effected by ministers of the Gospel . " ( Hear .. ^ He ( Mr . Cobden might he told that these men > o brutalized were not electors . If anything

      could cuke the demoralisation more demoniacal it vras the very practices that had prevailed at the FalkirS election . There were some spirit-dealers ¦ wh esa votes it , was thought desirable to have . If the -candidate had invited the voters into a room , and g iven each £ 5 , it would have been virtue itself compared with wLat had been done , for publicans had been ordered to admit men , women , and chil-J * vu | ** b *< 1 to f ;>** o ilxcsn oa uiuuli dt'iulc oa tliey pleased . The evil one himself could not have devised anything so black and detestable . The hon . member then referred to Linlith gow and Lanark , where he saw the same system of bjiiery existed . Jiow , was he to be met upon this occasion with the plea that there was some technical form of the

      House which prevented their dealing with thiB case ? lie asked them to deal with him as they tad dene with the honourable member for Sheffield some time since , and to treat this as a case without precedent ; for he believed that there could be no precedent for such abominable transactions . They were characterised by an iniquity which could not be equalled . In consequence of a word which he had incidentally dropped in that house he had been overwhelmed with appeals upon this subjectamong others from Temperance Societies , from the provosts , and with three petitions for the disfrancbisement of the burghs . Now , he wished to ask were elections for the boroughs of this country to bo carried by such processes as this ? If so . let

      them mark what the consequence must be . Who ¦ were to sit in that House if the path were to be through spice hundred gin-shops and publichouses , with bills of some £ 40 , £ 50 , £ 100 , or £ 200 at each ? The expenses of this election to the sitting member had been variously estimated at from £ 5 , 000 to £ 15 , 000 . Who were to occupy the seats of that house ? Would it be the territorial aristocracy , who lived upon their rents , and generally had not a very large surplus in hand ? No , it would be your moneyed men , who had hard cash at their tinker ' s , £ 10 , 000 or £ 15 , 000 in ready money , " who could alone find an entrance into that bouse . ( Hear . ) He asked honourable gentlemen opposite if . that would be likely to improve the character Of the representation , or if we had not better have

      remained under the old regime when gentlemen "were returned from , the influence of family claims or the prestige of rank ? ( Hear . ) For himself , he would rather live under any oligarchy , and despotism , than be ruled by men who entered that house by such means . ( Hear . ) To what tribunal then must they resort to put down these practices ? The house claimed for itself exclusive jurisdiction injnatters of ParliamentBry election ; then he asked the House to include this case in the commission that was to beappointed to inquire into the misdeeds of the borough of St . Albans ; He begged to move , as an amendment , after the worda"St . Albans , " to add the words , " and of bribery , treating and corruption m the Falkirk districts of burghs " ( near , near . ) °

      Mr . Bum , said he did not wish to atifle inquiry . ( Hear , hear . ) All he could say was , that he gave no sanction to the opening of public-houses , and he fceUered that none of his agents had done so either . It the house wished for inquiry he had no objection y . th regard to the scenes of drunkenness , no doubt someofihose took place , but that was a common K V ° f S ™* * ( Ala"gb . ) It was not to be wondered that there was a great deal of drunkenness at the election , because the population there earned wages to the extent of £ 10 , 000 a-week , and the principals of the great works iu the neifih . bourhood were all engaged in the election . He did not think that a very regular course of proceeding iad been taken in this case . ( Hear , hear > The loca agent of the petitioner had gone through the r ^ 5 \ c , ^ nt ' after a Pwcognition of two or three weeks finding that he was unable to establish a single allegation , the petition had hpon

      withdrawn . ( Hear , hear . ) The Atiorset-Gesebai , recommended Mr . Cobden not to mix up tffo cases which were essentially distinct . One of these cases rested upon the report of a committee presided upon evidence taken upon oath , and the bill if it passed this house would be sare of success elsewhere ; but it mi ght be endan-S ! m ^ 2 ca 3 e ^!

      as he was inferior with regard to wheat . Competition was therefore not to bo dreaded on this point : and the agriculturist , if thus helped , would be enabled to endure ihe struggle entailed upon him by our free trade policy . The hon . member then moved the preliminary resolution , necessary for the introduction of a bill creating the gradual and prospective repeal of the malt tax . Mr . Aujock supported the nfttipn . A l ong discussion took £ , ace in wMoo , several members joined . . .. The Chaxceixor of ine Exchequer defended the tax , contending that few branches of revenue were collected more . ctVuaply and conveniently , or exercised a pressure so light in comparison with the amount derived from it . The stationary character of the consumption of malt was attributable to the clanged habits of the people , as testified by the -vastly increased quantities of tea and coffee that were consumed notwithstanding the heavy custom

      duties still imposed upon those articles . It was gratifying to record this change , and desirable to foster it . After commenting upon the random assertions and loose computations by which the motion had been supported the right hon . baronet referred to former occasions when the t » x had been modified , to show that the benefit to be realised b y the consumer from the sacrifice of the duty would be exceedingly small . He denied that the tax prevented the poor man from brewing at home , and declarei that its abolition would largely increase the practice of illicit distillation . Turning to the financial side of the question , he demanded how it was possible to replace nearly five millions of revenue by imposts less oppres ' sive than the mal t duty . The Protectionists hadpvonouTiced in favour of the abolition of the income tax , and he called upon them , in consistency with that principle , to resist the attempt to strike off another chief source of national income .

      Mr . Disrabu pleaded the extreme distress of the farmers , whose loas from free trade bad been admitted by the Free Traders . to be thirty millions , and was now probably not less than seventy millions . As the withdrawal of protection left them no chance of profit on the wheat crop , they were thrown back upon barley , and it was not just to exact from this article an amount equal to one-tenth the whole mass of taxation : Prosperity could never be secured to the country , until the owners and occupiers of land were placed on a level with the

      rest of the community . He ' asked not that the commercial policy lately adopted should be reversed , but that it should be made consistent , and the agriculturists relieved from their unfair burthens , as they had been compelled to resign the advantages they once possessed . Otherwise he saw nothing but gradual and inevitable ruin ; and as a protest agaiDBt the unjust and injurious course which the ministry seemed determined to pursue , he intended to give his vote in support of the motion before the house . After some remarks the house

      divided—For the motion 122 Against 25 S—136 The remaining business on the paper was disposed of , and the house adjourned at a quarter to two o ' clock . I Fren our Second Edition of last wcelc . J FRIDAY , Mat 2 . HOUSE OF COMMONS . —In anBwer to a question by Mr . Hume , Lord Setmouk said that owing to the encroachments upon Rotton Row , arising from the accommodation recently provided for visitors to the Industrial Exhibition , it had been considered proper to construct a new ride for the equestrians in

      Kensington Gardens , but the violation of those preciucts would continue only fora few months .. Mr . Csilders here put some queries , respecting the Diocesan Synod summoned by the Bishop of Exeter , in his late pastoral address . Lord J . Russell feared that some doubts hung about the legal import of the proceeding contemplated by the Bishop of Exeter . The law officers of the Crown were of opinion that Provincial Synods , though they had long been in abeyance , were not contrary to statute . It was , therefore , not the intention of the government to interfere , especially as the prelate repudiated any intention of passing canons to bind the church .

      Iscomb Tax Boi . —On the motion that the Speaker should leave the chair , preparatory to the house going into committee upon the Income Tax Mr . W . Williams rose to move , as an amendment , that the bill , as far as regarded the imposition of the tax on the interest of the public debt , salaries aad emoluments of public officers , pensions and sinecures , be extended to Ireland ; bnt , being precluded by form from making the motion , he contented himself with calling attention to the reasons he offered in favour of the proposition . The house then went into committee .

      Upon the first clause Mr . Hume moved that , instead of three years , the duration of the tax be limited to one year , with the view of making an inquiry by a select committee into ' the mode of assessing and collecting the tax , so as to make it equitable and just . The amendment was supported by Mr . Alderman Thompson , , Mr . Mowatt , Mr . Buck , Mr . Macgregor , the 5 Iarqais of Granby , Mr , W . Miles , Mr . Disrfeli , Mr . Muntz , and Mr . Roebuck , and was opposed by « l * G ° » den Mr' J" Bel 1 - S - Herbert , the Chancellor of the Exchequer , Lord J . Russell , and M » . Geach . The debate , always discursive in committee , diffused itself over a greater variety of topics than usual . Upon a division the numbers were—For Mr . Hume ' s amendment ... 244 Against it 230 Ma °% against the Ministers — U

      m . -. ihe Chairman then reported progress , and had leave to sit again on Monday . The remaining business having been disposed of , the house adjourned at half-past one o ' clock until Monday .

      MURDER AT SHEFFIELD . On Sunday morning , about two o ' clock , the wife of John Wilkinson , who lived nearDukc-streeti Sheffield Park , obtained admis < ion to the house of >„ neighbour , alleging as her reason ' fofleavine n . rOwn home , a family quarrel . In the GGurse of the day she ent the woman in whose house she had taken refuge with a message to her husband ' shouae , when his body was discov ? red in one of the rooms lying in a pool of blood . The furniture , walls , and ceilings were also besprinkled with it . Wounds were found on the head and throat , and a pocket knife was discovered under a chair at the feet of the deceased . Information was immediately eiven to the police , who at once arrested the woman Wilkinson , and Bubsequentlv durae the evening a man named Battersby , a cousin of the deceased , and who had lodged with him up to Saturday

      night . A jealous teehng seems to have existed on the part of the deceased . Battersby was reported to have left the house on the night in question . On Sunday afternoon he reached his parents' dwelling near Worksop . Hearing that policemen had been there m search of him , he , by the first train on Monday morning , returned , and to the scene of the murder , where he was for hwith arrested . That the murder was one attended with much violence appears from the statements « f a neighbour , who alleges to having heard great noise in the house soon after m ' uinight . The prisoners Eliza Wilkinson ( aged twentysix ) , and William Battersby ( aged twenty-two ) , on Monday afternoon « ere brought up at the Town-hall , before the Mayor . —Mr . Raynor , the chief constable , stated that the prisoners were charged with being concerned in the death of the husband of Wilkinson . A

      post mortemexamitwtiotv was being made of the body , and there was not the slightest doubt that death had bt'en occasioned by a dreadful blow on the top of the head , which could not have been done by the unfortunate man himself . A wound also appeared on the neck of the deceased , but was of too slight a character to have caused death . There appeared some probability of its having been inflicted to give tlieimpreBsion that the deceased had died by his own hand . This suspicion was strengthened by the fact , that the case was reported to the police as an ordinary suicide .

      THE INQUEST . The inq _ uest on the body was held on Tuesday afternoon . in the Town Hall , when the following evidence was taken : — . ¦ ¦ ; . Suzkbkth , wife of Samdbi JonNsowj ' collier . —I reside next door but one to the deceased . About a quarter past seven o ' clock on Sunday morning Mrs . Wilkinson ( his wife ) came to my house . Mrs . Wilkinson told me that she and her husband bad been having some words , tbab she was afraid of her life , and had jumped out of her chamber window . She said her husband had to go to feed his horses , but the chamber window and house shutters were as she had left them , and she wondered whether he

      was gone or not . I said to her , " Must I go and see if the key is in the door 1 " She said ' Yes . " 1 went and looked , and saw the key inside the door , which was fast . I said , " Must I ask him for your hoots ? " She said '' Yes . " I went and shook the door three or four times , and called very loud for Anne ( the deceased ' s daughter , ) who was in bed in the garret . She got up and came down stairs , and opened the house door . Mrs . Wilkinson came to her house door while I was waiting , and as soon at her daughter opened the door she made a grasp at her daughter ' s arm , then went into the kitchen , and looked into the inner room . Mrs . Wilkinson went into the room , and then held up her arms and

      said , " Oh , dear , come and look , mistress-come and look ! " I went to the inner door and looked into the room , and saw the man lying on the floor on his face with blood under him , and ran out and made an alarm . My husband returned with me to Wilkinson ' s house , and we there found Thomas Johnson and Mr . Wilson , the owner of the property . MrB . Wilkinson had then gone back into my house . My husband saw a white-hafted spring kuife lying under a chair . I observed that the door and a table standing in the kitchen were sprinklftd with blood . Apiece of beef and a pound of butter , and a basin of milk , which were on the table , had also spots of blood on them . There were a'so spot 3 of blood the

      on ceiling of both kitchen and room . Mrs . Wilkinson , after she got to my house , said she wished she had remained in the house with her husband , and Btood her ground , and let him kill her too . I asked what time it was when « he jumped through the window , and she said about twelve o clock . I said it was very strange , for I was up and down the yard myself three or four times about twelve , and my husband too , and asked her where she had been all the night . She said she came to the door and tried it , and pioked up some pebbles in the yard and threw at the window , but could not wake us ; that she was afraid to make a noiae , as her husband would have heard her and she was afraid would have followed her ; that she went and sat in the "petties" in the yard till about two o clock , when she called Mrs . Lund nn that .

      Mrs . Lund let her in , and she remained there till she saw our door open . I told her there was a wound on her husband ' s head , and she replied that he muat have done it with falling down . I told her that the men were taking Battersby ' s clothes , andaheaaid "is there some blood or any thing on them , for he out bis finger on Thursday , and perhaps it might havo bled on them . " I toid her I did not know . She said she hoped there would be no blood found on . his clothes . I did not go to bed till ten or twenty minutes past twelve o ' clock , and fell asleep soon after . I did not hear anything thrown at our , window . If she had thrown any stones at the window I should have been sure to have heard them . Mrs . Wilkinson and her husband quarrelled occasionall y . The knife produced by Mr . Raynor is the one which was under the chair . . It was quite clean at thetima . Th « ™ iii > o .

      man handled the knife when his hands were covered with blood m raising the body , and some blood then got upon it . Thouas Johnson , cowkeeper . —I reside next door to the deceased in Wilson ' s-yard , Duke-Btveet . On baturday night about five minutes past twelve o clock I was retiring to bed , and heard an unusual Bowhke the " rumbling" of chairs and tables , or something of that sort . The noise continued two or three minutes , and then subsided . A little before eight o ' clock I went into Mr . Wilkinson ' s bouse , and found him lying on his face on the house-floor with a deal of blood about him . I obof thf rll f f ^ nife l yin * ° Peninone c ° ™ r ot the room .

      MARLBOROUGH-STREBT . —Assadlt ' at thb Obtstal Palace . —S . Martinelli , in the employ of one of tho exhibitors at the Crystal Palace , was charged with assaulting Police-Sergeant Pronger , 287 A ; while in the execution of trisdvity . —The coustable stated that on Tuesday morning about nine o'clock he was on duty in tho interior of the Exhibition building , when he saw the defendant wanoeving about variou 3 sections . He asked him for his pnss-ticket , when he replied that he had none . Witness said his orders were to turn all persons out who had not a pass , and that he could

      not let him proceed further unless he produced his ticket . The defendant replied that his master , who was an exhibitor , had got his pass , and he would take witness to him . They then walked some distance towards the west-end of the building , when the defendant ran away " through different sections to No . ' 22 , the section where his muster was . ' Witness got up to him , and again desired him to go out , and on putting his hand gently on liis shoulder to ejeofc him from the building , the defendant struck ' him on the head and knocked'his hat off . Witness then took him into custody for

      the assault . —In reply to the charge , the defendant said he had a ticket when he entered the building in the morning , but he left it with his master . He had not the least idea he was doing wrong in going into another section than the one he was employed in ; arid if he did strike the constable it was not done intentionally . —Mr .

The money waB immediately paid .

      RoBBKRr AT THK CRYSTAL PAtAOE . —T . Soanlan was charged with stealing from the Crystal Palace a quantity of scaffolding-ropo , the property of Messrs . Fox and . Henderson , the contractors . — Best said that on Tuesday morning he / waB on duty at the south entrance of tha Exhibition when he aaw the prisoner , who was carrying a large bag of bulky appearance , in the middle of the road . Witness asked what was iii the bag . ' The prisoner said " Oh , nothing particular , only aoine rubbish I have picked up . " Witness then opened the bag , and found it to contain a considerable quantity of scaffolding-rope , and as the prisoner could not give a satisfactory account as to the manner in which Vm

      came by it he took him to the station . —Thomas Handford . gatekeeper , in the employ of Messrs . Fox and Henderson , at the Exhibition , identified the rope as the property of his employers . —The prisoner said he picked up the rope in the park , and thinking it of no use to anyone he put it in his batr —Mr . Bingham , who thought the prisoner might acted under that impression , dealt with the case in a summary manner by committing him for ten days for unlawful possession , ' THAMES—Bruiai , Conduct is a Railway URRiAaB . —Two respectably-dressed men , about twenty-four years of age , named Upton Cooke and Jonn laylor ( the former a watchman , nuridinn

      at 10 , Lower-road , Islington , and the latter a watchmaker , of 3 , Sandwioh-place , St . Paricras 1 were charged with boing drunk and assaulting two respectable married women , named Charity Dunn and Sarah Davis . It appeared that about twenty minutes to ten o ' clock on the previous night the complainants got into a train at Blackwalf to return to their residence , at ButcherVrow , Shadwell . The prisoner and another man were the only persons with them in the oarriage . As soon as the tram started , Cooko pulled Mrs . Dunn off her seat and , clasping her round the waist , attempted to kiss her , which she resisted , and Taylor attempted to take similar liberties with Mrs . Davis . When

      they found themselves repulsed they called the complainants prostitutos , adding , " that when prostitutes travelled by railways they must put up with the consequences . " They threatened to cry out murder , upon whioh the prisoners said they'd thrust them out of the window , awd Cooke , catching Mrs . Dunn by the neck and thigh , was absolutely proceeding to do so . Mrs . Davis remonstrated , telling him that he might injure her friend for life to which he answered carelessly , " Oh , it ' s nothing you won't be thefirsfc women that have been thrown out of a railway oarriage . " After that they proceeded to further and grosser indecencies , disarranging the dresses of the complainants and breaking the combs in their heads

      Complaint was made when the carriage stopped at the Stepney dtation , and Preston , an officer , being telegraphed , wasquioklyon the spot , when the prisoners were given into his custody . Even then they continued thoir gross discourse , and called the complainants by the most opprobrious names . ~ Cooke , in his defence , said the statemont ot the prosecutrix was a tissue of falsehoods from top to bottom ; and if the sergeant who took the charge were present , he would prove that they said at the station-house no one had toaohed them .-Mrs . Dunn ; I don ' t know what I said at the station . I was so agitated at the time that I do not remember anythmg . -Cooke : It ' s all a hatnheH . nn

      left a destitute orphan some yews ago , was , from motives of oharity , adopted by Mrs . Holland , a lady residing at Chelsea , and oontinued under her hospitable roof until tempted to commit the present offence , Mrs . Holland on Saturday last placed a £ 5 note of the Gloucester Bank in a box where she ordinarily kept money , and in a hour or two afterwards discovered that it \? a % stolen and that the boy White had absconded . A relationof Mrs . Holland's went in quest of White , and having found him he produced 10 a . Oil ., deolaring that wa 9 all tho money ne had left out of the note , which he and some companions had sold for £ 1 . The two other prisoners , who were seated to have been with him at tho time , were also taken into custody , and it

      then transpired that White gave the note to Mitchel , who took it into a toy-shop , and having received the amount above stated handed it over to him outside the door . —In reply to the charge , White admitted that he stole the note , and Mitchel repeated the statement before given , that he sold it for £ 1 to a tradesman at the west end of the town , who Baid he could nofc give more than £ 1 for it as it bore last year ' s date . —Mr . Symonds having intimated that the boy who sold the note had expressed his willingness to accompany a constable and point out the place , which he was unaDle to ¦ describe , requested the magistrate ' s conaent to that course . — Mr . Broderip immediately acquiesced , and shortly before the closing of the court Police-sergeant

      Forde returned with the hoy and William Cave , a very respectable looking young man , described ae the . proprietor of a toy warehouse , in Rataooneplace , whom he had taken into custody . —The Sergeant stated that he . went to the prisoner ' s ( Cave ] residence that afternoon , and having stated that he wished to speak with him particularly in private , was shown by the accused into an up-stairs private room , where , in order to disarm suspicion as to the real motive of hia visit , he bad recourse to the ruse of telling Mr . Cave that there had been some forgeries upon the Gloucester Bank , and that he thought he had traced one of the spurious notes into his possession . Accused replied that he had received one on Saturday from a boywho was in the

      , habit of bringing goods to the shop , and that it was now in his desik below . After making a statement corresponding with the defence given below , Mr . Cave handed the note to the constable , who told bim that he must consider himself in custody . —In reply to the charge of receiving the note , the accused said it was a very serious matter for him . The boy in question had been in the habit of coming to his house to bring parcels , and on Saturday he catue , and pulling out a note , which he laid he bad picked up , innocently inquired if it was a good one . He ( accused ) replied he did not know whether it was good , but he would not mind giving bim a sovereign for it . The boy asked if he could not give him 30 s . lov it , but he repliei no . as he had never

      heard ot the bank , and as it might have stopped payment and the boy agreed to take the sovereign . —Mr . Broderip remande d the accused , with the boys White and Mitchel , the boy Pope being liberated . On Wednesday the two prisoners were again brought up , when the prisoner White adnutted his guilt , and Nichols said "White had offered another boy is . to get the note changed . —On the part of Mr . Cave ltwaa submitted that there was nothing to show a guilty knowledge in receiving the note ; he did not know the boy had not picked it up . f he boy was in the habit of coming from a wholesale manufacturer of toys , and Mr . Cave did not think for a moment he was doing any wrong in buying it . He was a highly respectable man . He had been twelve years in his present shop . In buymg a country note Cave incurred a risk that the bank might break , and gave sufficient value for

      it . —Mr . JJroderip : It is my duty to send the case lor trial . It will be for the jury to sav whether the prisoner Cave received the note under suoh circumstances as would raise a fair presumption that he must have been aware it was stolen . A boy comes into a tradesman ' s shop , Bays he has picked up a note , and instead of sending for a policeman and giving the boy into his hands , he haggles about the price , and then gives him a soverei gn for a £ 5 note . 7 v , , ^ n i ) lled for Mr - * e * ° be admitted to bail . —Mr . Broderip refused , and remarked that the moral state of the prisoner ' s mind must be an odd one if he could not consider he was doing wrong m acting as he had done . All the prisoners were committed for trial at the Central Criminal Court . The court was thronged with thefriends of the prisoner Cave .
