  ^^_ ^^ — Tixa Accidest xe £ b Lhcesteb . —An inquiry juto the circumstances attending the death of Edirard Jowett , the nnfbrtnnaie man MDed on the rail--way near this place on Thursday night , took place on Friday , at six o ' clock . From the evidence of the two principal -witnesses , the driver and stoker of a coal train , tsMcIi left Leicester for Rugby , about seven o ' clock on Thursday night , it appeared that tire deceased acted as breaksman to tne same train , and accompanied them on that occasion . After passing through the Knighton-hill Tunnel , which is little more than a mile Irom Leicester , one of the coupling CfraiT ^ connecting the coal trucks broke , and the train ¦ was stopped to " remedy the accident . This having been done , the engine was again set in motion , box
  
  otrinjj to the lunnid stale of tie atmosphere , and consequent slipperiness of the rails , the wheels did not "bite , " and the deceased sot down off the truck on "which he "was riding , an 5 taking a small spade or ihovel -with him , crossed the line for the purpose of obtaining a little sand to throw _ pon . the rails . "While in the act of doing this the second goods train from London came along the down line at a rapid pace , hut , from the fog which prevailed at the the time , it was not observed bv the driver of the coal train until within a few yards' distance . "When the train had swept past , tie driver called out to
  
  deceased , and , obtaining no answer , commenced a search for him . In a very few moments he was discovered in a senseless state by the road side , with a frightful wound over the right temple , from which the brains protruded , and other contusions about the face . He was immediaxely placed on one of the tracks and conveyed back to Leicester , where he lingered until ten o ' clock , and then expired . In the absence of all positive knowledge , it is conjectured that , in eonsequence of the noise from the engine of the coal train , the deceased was altogether unaware of the approach of the down train , the connecting bar between the wheels of the locomotive attached to
  
  which appears to have struck his head , and inflicted the wound above described . After hearing evidence to this effect , the jury expressed themselves satisfied , and returned a verdict of "Accidental death . " A ^ rorHEB Rjtn .

Fonr of the men immediately got off the line altoseiher : but the two men . Brooks and TuckwelL instead of following their esample , moved only from the up line to the down line . At the time there was a very thick and dense fos prevailing , so that
  
  objects could not be seen beyond a very short distant , in ' conseqHence of which the men were not aware of the approach also of the down train , which leaves the Piddington terminus at eight o'clock , until it was so dose tothem thai all chance of escape was hopeless , and they were instantly knocked down aud passod over by the train . The persons having charge of the train were noi aware of the accident until their arrival at the Slough station , n-hen - « onie of the rai ] - wav officers observing blood on the tender of the engine , communicated the fact to the guard , when persons were immediately sent along the line to ascertain the cause , who found the bodies of the two " deceased lying in a frightfully mutilated state on the down line between the Slough and West I > rayton stations .

" Asotbxs Fatal Accident os the Midland Covnttxs _ Luxw _ t . —Another accident , fatal in its resulu to one individual , on this line of railway , occurred on Wednesday morning . The deceased , named Joseph "Woodford , amarriedman tdthont family , -waa a guard in the employ of the Midland Counties Railway Company , and left Rugby on Wednesday morning in charge of the seven o ' clock train . On arriving at the Syston station , some luggage was handed up to him on the top of the carriage upon which he was seated , that he might arrange iz in the usual manner . He save the signal to the driver to start the train , while he
  
  was so engaged , and Mr . " Withers , the superintendent , handed Mm a note , and the train moved otT . The deceased being still in an ereei position « n the top of the carriage , was observed for some distanc-* ' down the line , and was only missed on the arrival of the train at Sileby . by the superintendent of that station , and -on a search being made he was diseoven-d on the top of one of the carriages with hi » brains dashed ont and quite dead . There is but one bridge between Syston and Sileby . It is situated about inidwa ' and there can be no doubt that the accident occurred by the deceased ' s head , while he was -till engaged on the roof of the carriage , coming in contact with the bridge . Ni ? ar the centre of the arch some fur-from the deceased ' s cap has been discovered , reducing the mode of his death to a certaintv .

  Rallw-it AccmEii at Scxdehulsu . —On Saturday last a little boy named George Crowther , of Hendonterrace , near Sunderland , was killed on the Durham and Suuderland Railway , by being run over by two waggon * as they were passing on the line near Ilendon . Iz appears ibe little fellow was attempting to get on to one of tire -traegons , -when he feD down , and both waggons passed ever nim , 'breaking his legs , and injuring him severely in other parts of his body . lie died shortly after from exhaustion , his remains presentins a shocking spectacle . It is rather remarkable that about a year and a half ago he escaped miraculously from being killed on the same spotby a train of wagjrons , at which time he wa 3 knocked down and his head laid open , and the greater part of his face much mutilated . On another occasion he narrowly escaped drowning , and was rescued from under a ship's bottom when all hope of his recoverv was given up .
  
  Ecst . —SnoBE . —An inquest was held at the Bock Inn , Hok-ome , on the body of Richard Dearden , farmer , aged 47 years , who cut his throat on the loth instant . It appeared he had been in a low state of mind for several weeks . He died on Sunday last . The jury returned a verdict of " Committed suicide wliilit ia a lit of temporary insanity .

It at-peared , from the evidence of John Hadfield , that the-ho > band had been drinking all day at ^ . beer-s h op , and thai the deceased came to him about mid-dav
  
  end- _ -avoiirin £ ! to get him home . The woman was Ttry ill , andbecjredhim ( Iladfield ) to get her hus band to go Lome . The prisoner came to the deceased , and Hadneld saw him strike her in the breast . She crje » 3 f < at , " Don't strike me , my lore I" and prayed several times , "Lord , save me ! Lord , help me !"

She changed her place to the front of a table ; and , after she had prayed once or twice more , he got hold of her head and "joTTt-d"' [ beat ] it violently against the window bottom . The master came and separated them , and told the prisoner to go out of the house . The
  
  deceased lonid not walk , but went and sat down on some steps opposite . Prisoner got hold of her arm ; he said , " Come , Eliza , will you go V She said , " I caa % ieve . " lie heaved her up , and went off in the direction oi" the town . Jane Langton deposed to seeing the pr isoner strike the deceased , and tick her under the chin , after leaving the beer-shop .

  Mukdxb a Pakis bt Sctjocauos . —The Court of Assizes of the Seine was occupied on Saturday with the trial of Etienne ChevreuiL ,. aged 24 , a journeyman shoemaker , for having , on thel ^ h of July last , " murdered a woman named Celina Bronn , aged 33 , by placing over her face a pitch plaster . The singularity of the means used in the committal of this crime , and the fact of the prisoner's having immediately afterwards gone and delivered himself into custody , contributed to lend a certain interest to this case . It appeared from the act of accusation that the prisoner had , on the evening of the murder , come to the guard-house of the Conservatoire des Arts et Metiers , and declared that he had just killed a woman who lived "with him as his wife . He had met with the
  
  deceased , he said , in the street , a month before , and proposed to her to go home and pass the night with him . She consented , and remained with him at his request for some days . He then wished to get rid of her , but she positively refused to quit the place . Having scarcely any money to pay his rent and other expenses , and being besides in debt , they had agreed to die together by means of charcoal . Tfiey got some brandy on credit , and drank it to give them courage , and , having stopped the key-hole and windows carefully , placed the charcoal near the bed , ready to be lit Vhen they pleased . The brandy rapidlv took effect on the senses of the deceased , and she was
  
  obliged to lie down on the bed . Finding that she lav quiet , the idea occurred to him to melt some shoe-makers' wax , and spreading it on a piece of rag to place it ov * r her face . He did this , and after holding it on the woman ' s features for a short time , found that she was dead . He then thought , he said , of lighting the charcoal , but his courage failed , and he determined to give himself up to justice . The soldiers at the guard-house at first imagined that the prisoner intended some hoax , but on some of them proceeding to his lodging in the Rue Aumaire , they found the woman Bronn lying dead , with the pitchmask on her iace . On the trial a number of circum
  
  stances came out which very materially impugned the veracity of the prisoner ' s statement relative to his intention t-o die with the deceased . It appeared that the prisoner was always of a morose , taciturn dispostion , given up to the most degrading habit * of dissipation , dissatisfied with his wages as a journeyman shoemaker 1-50 sous a day ) , and still wanting energy to better his condiiion . In appearance he bore all tlie marks of an ill-regulated life , beiniT sallow , thin , and undergrown . lie was fond of raiding , but the books which he frenerally perused weiv of a lascivious character . He was also said to bo foml oi ' poetrv , and to have written > ome verses himself , but tli : > fact onlv rv ~ t- <> n his own asariiiim .

This quantity , and even more , liad Wen all umh ' i , whu-h would seem to imply that the prisoner ha < l previously formed tin- i < k \ i of murdering the woman . It was proved , too , that ¦ w hen he can ;? io the 4 runrd-hou > e he was perfectly * o bw , whereas , by his own acknowledgment , he bad given the deceased so considerable a quantit y ui
  
  brandy as to intoxicate her . This was more easy finhim to do , as the deceased was known to be fond of spirituous liquors , and had been repeatedly seen in a state of intoxication during the time she was livin <; with Chevreuil . The question of the prisoner ' s mental intelligence was raised by his counsel . A person named Oreillard , one of his" most intimate acquaintances , swore that he was weak in intellect , and the person for whom ke worked seemed inclined to the same opinion ; but , on the other hand , there was brou | rl ! t forward a written account oi" the cvinn-, ami of the circumstances which led to it , drawn uj > by the prisoner at the guard-Louse on tho night lie delivered himself into custody . This paper , which is curious from the minuteness of its details , shows no want oi
  
  lntejliirenif . It is filled with faults of orthography , but "> not devoid of occasional force of exj > res > io : i . After a great number of witnesses had been examined , tile Advocate-General addressed ihe Court : it irreai } crS 2 lh I !) SUppQrt of thP aceU- * ation , declaring that Tio proof existed tliat anv agreement had Ikvii made between the dec-eased and tue prisoner to die together but that , on the contrary , every thing led to the belief that the prisoner had lirst intoxicated the deceased , and then murdered her , according to a plan which he bad previously determined on . The prisoner ' s counsel having replied , the jury retired fur half an hour , and then returned a verdict of * " (< uiky of murder . " The Court passed sentence of death on the prisoner , who did not manifest the slightest concern , and -tralked away in custody with a firm step .
  
  Another Femxle Dkowxed . —On Monday momin < r last , the body of an elderly woman , the wife of James Hall , a resident in LortJ-strcct , Oldhani , was found drowned in a lodge of water in the Intaek Field . The unfortunate woman , who was about sixty vears of age , had been quarrelling on Saturday ni ? h " t last with a daughter of hers , who bears a bad character . After this circumstance she disappeared . She was searched forinvainon Sunday , and was not discovered till Monday morning . The deceased was a bread-baker , and a most industrious woman .
  
  Melascholt axd Fatal Accident- —About seven o ' clock on Tuesday morning a most frightful accident occurred at the mills of the Messrs . Martin , adjoining Killileagh . While a man of the name of John Crosbey was attending the fires , by some inadvertence his clothes were caught by one of the belts , which carried him round the drum attached to the engine . When he was taken out life was extinct . He was dreadfully mangled . The poor man lias left a wifr and sevpn children .

  [ Mr . Sheriff was removed from the police-station to Stafford on the night of his commitment ,, and Miss Railton and Mr . Uildreth early on the followine morninff ; but Mrs . Hildreth has remained in the town , in consequence of the ill state of her health . ) The ixrASTiciDE at Wolterhamptos . —The prisoners , Miss Railton , Mr . Sheriff , and Mr . and Mrs . Hildreth , were again brought before the coroner's inquest on Thursdav , but no further evidence of any importance was adduced , and the inquest was again
  
  adjourned until Tuesdav . On Friday the prisoners were placed at the bar of the public oifiee before Mr . Hill , Mr . Barker , Dr . Dehane , and Dr . Briscoe . magistrates of the county . The only additional evidence called was John Titley , a cowman , who deposed that he found the body of a female infant in the nightsoil in Mr . Quinton ' s outhouse . The pri . < onei-s declining to say anvthing in their defence , were each committed to Stafford , Miss llailton for conceniini : the birth of her child , and the other prisoners as

Cliarlotte Clarke said that on Friday the deceased , while talking to a female in what is termed the quarantine ward , suddenly fell down in a tit , and divd in a few minutes . Mr . French , the parish surgeon , said he
  
  arrived when the deceased was at the point oi" death , and witness thought he died from the bursting ol some large blood-vessel . In his infancy deceased had some disease of the jaw , which caused the union oi the two jaw bones , and in consequence of this the only way to satisfy him with food was through an aperture made by extracting two of his teeth . This had the effect of weakening his constitution , and lie was almost always in ill health . Verdict , " Died l > y the visitation of God . "
  
  Sesgcxar Case . —Monday afternoon Mr . Wakley held an adjourned inquest at the Pembroke Arms Tavern , Pembroke-square , Kensington , on the body of Mary Garfield . It appeared , on the opening of the inquiry on Friday last , that the deceased had been living for the last twelve months as cook in the service of _ Mr . Collett , a gentleman holding an official situation in the House of Commons , and residing at No . 28 , Pembroke-square . During the whole time of her living there she was never known to ' go to I > ed , but she would sleep sitting in a chair in the km-hen , and her manners were in all respects most eccentric , the other servants scarcelv speaking to her , on account of her crossness and snappish manner of
  
  answering them . On the night of Wednesday last , about half-past eleven o ' clock , Rose Jackson , the nursemaid , after having supped -with deceased , who during the evening appeared m her asual good state of health and spirits , took the candle off the table to go up to bed , when the deceased called licr back , and asked her to leave the candle . She did so , and on coming down again into the kitchen the next morning , about seven o ' clock , she found the deceased in the kitchen , dressed as she had left her on the previous night , lying on the floor , and quite insensible . The inquiry was then adjourned for ajx > fX nwru . ^ . examination of the body to be made . This was done , and , in accordance wrth the medical testimony , the Jury returned a verdict of "" Natural death . "
  
  Htdkophobia . —During the last five oi six days the greatest alarm and excitement has existed throughout the neighbourhood of Turnbain-green and CMswick , in consequence of a mad dog having bitten several persons and animals . It appeals that on "Wednesday weet , the 20 th inst ,, a small Scotch terrier dog , the property of Mr . George Battersbee , the landlord of the Prince ot' Wales puLlic-liouse , Turnham-green , which was IS months old , and had been in his possession from a puppv , was observed to
  
  Untitled Article
  
  be in a very strange and excited state . Nothing was , however , thought of it , and the dog was allowed to range about during the day , and it has since been ascertained that he has bitten several dogs at Chiswi ck , Hammersmith , and Brentford , and also a donkey , belonging to a water carrier , named Clark , at Chiswick . About 12 o ' clock on that day ( Wednesday ) the dog followed home from his master ' s house a young man named Fowler , in the employ of Mr . Dean , a market-gardener at Strand-on-the-Green , who resides nearly opposite the Prince of Wales , and there flew at him and bit him severely on the thumb of the right hand , Fowler shortly afterwards complained to Mr . Battersbee of the dog haying bitten him , and laid his thumb open , but nothing serious
  
  was thought ot it at the time . About an hour after , however , a little boy , between four and five years of age , the son of Mr . King , a tailor , living two doors from the ^ Prince of Wales , waa bitten in both legs by the dog , and subsequently , on the same afternoon , Mr . G . Battersbee himself , while Bitting in the bar , was bitten by the animal in the middle finger of the right hand ; a woman named Brown , a dealer in fish , living at Chiswick , while passing the house , was bitten in the leg ; Mr . C . Battersbee ( brother of the landlord ) , in the right thumb ; a man named Stowell , in the employ of Mr . J . Cloud , liveryman , and Mr . Battersbee , sen ., in the thick part of the thigh . Still no suspicion was entertained that the dog was in a rabid state until the evening of the same day , when the dog was seen to bite the doov-posts ; and it becoming known tha . t several pei-sons as weli
  
  as animals had been bitten by him , Mr . Battersbee directed that the dog should 6 e tied up in the stable , which was done . From that time until Sunday last the dog refused either food or drink , but foamed at the mouth , and gnawed the straw on which he was placed , and even the bricks underneath ; and oh Sunday he was destroyed . AH the persons known to have been bitten have been placed under medical treatment , and have had the parts cauterized without any unfavourable symptoms having appeared . Numerous dogs in the neighbourhood , supposed to have been bitten , have been destroyed . Idv . Battersbee has also destroyed his cats , it being impossible to say to what extent the virus has been communicated . The young man Fowler , owing to inflammation extending up his arm , has since become a patient at St . George ' s Hospital .

V l > Hill > K . —11-rear exciionu-nt prevailed in the City on Monday , upon the fact beins ; made , known that a robbery had taken place , during the course of the pivvioiw day , in the house of Messrs . Rogerx , O ) diu ^< and Co ., St . Clement ' s-lane , and that property to tbt amount of upwards of £ 40 , tJ 0 U had been stolen . 1 appears that the money was deposited in the iron sale , and , as usual , a clerk was appointed to watcii over its safety during the day , and another to perform the like duty during the night . One of the partners remaining at home on Sunday , the day clerk
  
  asked permission to go out for a few houi-s , which was granted . At the accustomed hour in the evening the other clerk came , and remained during the night : but when business was resumed on Monday , and the iron safe opened with the ordinary kev , it was found entirely empty ; and yet no force whatever had been used in the employment of the means adopted to rid the chest of its valuable contents , of coui-sc , all is conjecture upon the subject . Notes to the amount of . £ 40 , 710 have !> een stopped at the Hank ; and Forrester , the active ( , 'ity police officer , is engaged in endeavouring to trace the party guilty ot" this liarinsr crime .
  
  rvRTiiF . it Partici'latis . — This enormous rohben * continues the -subject of general conversation in the city ; but , as was the case on Momlay , it is deemed a matter of prudence to conceal certain particulars , the publication of which would proK-ibly militate against the apprehension of the o-nVnders . " It has been a work of some excitement , under existing circumstanoi'S for the clerks of Messrs . Ropers and Co . to make up the heavy list of missing notes : but mi Tuesday morning the whole wore completed , and placarded extensively throughout the metropolis . Hie house of Rogers and Co . is situated in Clement ' s-
  
  lane , rather a quiet thoroughfare , and , on Sundays especially , comparatively deserted , the hoases being chiefly let out as offices , and occupied in other than business hours merclv by the male or lemale keepers . This would so far afford facilities for the unobserved approach of the thieves , n court running' also within two doors of the hank . The house of Hogers and Co . has always been considered one of decided property , though doing a very private l > u « iue < s : and the head of the tirm , now advanced in azo , is well known as the author « i" the Plf > rnr ; . < nf Mr , m .. rti .

  Tue late KomjEitv at Mh ^ sn . s . IIik . kiw . — London' . Wednesday Sunn . — . No * the -lii : lue . it clue has yet W-en obtained to the perpetrators of this extraordinary robbery . All ute-a > s now abandoned of the thieves havinir starte < i tor the continent . Mr . Hobler , who has been employed liy the firm , started innne-¦ liatejy the robbery was discovered , for tlie continent , from "which place he returned last night , and it is believed from the information he there obtained that the guilty parties hail not skilled for France ; and this assurance is further continued by the fact thai Daniel Forrester is in town . The supposition now entertaincdis , that the piWaiee oi" the robbery is secreted , and that the u « . tcs will not be put in circulation ior the pre-ent . . A lui ] account ,
  
  connected with the numbers of the stolen notes , lias been sent tu all the jjreat cities on the continent , which , perhaps , will have the effect of pit-venting any ot them being passed ; but whether they might not be negotiated amongst the South American States is worthy of consideration . One of the superior officers of the City police received a letter in the course of yesterday , informing him that the whole of the pvopeity which was stolen from Messrs . Rogers' bankinghouse was deposited in a house in the neighbourhood oi'Walworth ; and offtwo of the force were sentinacati toact upon thepremises , although the information bad all the appearance of a hoax in the eyes of experienced men . Ihe latter was anonymous , and written in a wretched manner ; but so ready are people to erasn
  
  at any hope in a desperate ease , that it was speedily reported amongst the police that all the money would be , by six or seven o ' clock , certainly in the custody of tin- City commissioner or the Lord Mavor . The cabman was the onlv one who gained by the report , for the poor man who owned the house , upon beinf : shewn the warrant , expressed the greatest surprise and indignation at the calumny , and invited the niosi scmpnlous investigation . The expectation ot the police of course proved delusive . The persoi ' , who was subjected to this annoyance declares that he h not aware how he could have provoked the animosity of any living being to so unkind an act . The missing notes and gold alone amount to 40 , 000 / ., and there is besides , it is stated , a large amount in bills ol
  
  exchange . The mode in which the robbery was effected is pretty woll ascertained ; and . ' as the locks o ( hankers' safes are generall y on the patent principle , the probability is that the keys had on some occasion been mislaid , and that advantage was taken of that circumstance to prepare for the robbery . There . are one or two points that may lx > stated with certainty , from what has transpired . " First , that a successful re .-- ' ' was planned to get possession of the keys of the strong rhest ; secondly , that the party delinquent has on a former occasion not stood A 1—and , thirdly , that theve is a clue to the retreat of the delinquent .
  
  There was something like a run upon the bank on Monday ; but on Tuesday business resumed its ordinary current . It is not at all improbable that within eight and forty hours the principal delinquent will be in ~ the hands of one of the Forresters . The amount of sovereigns taken is not by any means so lai-gc as stated in many fjuarters . A very strong man must he be who can conveniently walk away , and without attracting observation , with 3 , 000 or 4 , 000 sovereigns . The transaction—the possession of the keys , the opening of the strong room , and the principal party being fairly on " the road "—occupied less than three quarters of an hour .
  
  Extensive Hoitsebreajuxg and Robbery at Glasg ow . —Friday morning , about one o ' clock , a robbery of a veiy daring and extensive character was perpatrated in the drapery warehouse of Mr , William Patrick , Clyde-terrace , Gorbals . The thieves , it appears , effected an entrance by forcibl y breaking open the back windows , and succeeded in carrying olf three hundred bolts of silk vibl > $ > ns , a quantity of silk hawlherchMs , sewed muslin collars , and stockings , along with £ 0 in single notes , and -& 1 C > in ^ U \ er and copper . The proprietor of the warehouse , who resides above the premises , -fortunately heard
  
  the noise caused by the depredators , and immediately proceeded to inspect his shop , just as one of the thieves was climbing over an adjoining wall . Of course , an alarm was soon given , and in a short time afterwards , Mr . Brow-n , the efficient officer of the Gorbals criminal department , succeeded in capturing six of the thieves—three men and three women—along with a considerable poition of the stolen goods , in a house in Clyde-terraee . About seven o ' clock the same morning , « a woman belonging to the party was also apprehended at the Edinburgh Railway Station , with a large quantity of the stolen ribbons in her
  
  possession . DREAEFrL Cbueitv . —The public mind has , since Tuesday last , been much excited by the report of a case of almost unheard-of cruelty practised b y the master of-a . Danish-vessel , misnamed Christ ian Christensen , towards a boy named Wilhelni Ferdinand Flinher , aged seventeen , who belonged to the crew of

  the brig Daisy , of Gottenburgh . The poor boy , who was on his first voyage , appears to have been subjected to the combined ill-treatment of starvation , confinement , and blows . The crew of the schooner Prince , Captain Sobier , Bristol trader , having witnessed the barbarity practised towards this poor boy —having seen him not only repeatedly thrashed by the rufltan Christensen , but also by the mate , and , moreover confined in a J caak ' w-iib netting over the top , and also kept four days without food , stated the circumstance to Mr . P . Le Conteur , who had the lad taken ashore , reported the case to the constables , and observing that the responsibility of the boy's life \ Yi \ 3 now in their hands , lett them to " bring the matter before the court . Wellthe constables had the poor
  
  , lad s case in hand—they had him under their protection ; they brought him , it appears , as far as the court-house—and what did they do ? They sent him on board again ! What was the consequence ? A renewal of ill-treatment in an aggravated form . The monster Christensen , on Saturday night , had the poor boy ' s hands and feet made fast , so that he could not use these limbs ; and , this being done , he had him fastened tight across the groin to the winch at the foot of the mast , exposed to the cold and rain , where BOine of the pilots seeing him on Sunday morning , went to one of the assistant-conBtables , Mr .
  
  Payne , who , finding the boy unable to stand through ill-treatment and want of food , had him conveyed to the hospital , where he now lies in the greatest danger , the doctors scarcely entertaining a hope of hia recovery . The brute of a master was put into gaol on Monday evening , and the court-on-Tuesday took the boy ' s deposition , in presence of the master * who now awaits the issue in gaol . Of course , should the boy die , he will be tried for a capital offence , but a share of the responsibility must tall on those members of the police who were aware of the boy ' s situation and did not immediately rescue him from it . —Guernsey Stur .

  r oiu mi . K Adduction . —Kij . uhney , Fkjday . — On Sunday ni ^ lit last , ; il > out fourteen men , whose faces Were blackened , and most ok' whom were armed , attar-lied the house til' Michael Xl' (« illycutldv , of Trippinagh , in the parish of Agli . sh , a respectable farmer , and havin < j discharged a shot through the parlour window , tltev effected an entrance through it , and fiiNt secured the servants by binding them firmly with-ropes . They then proceeded to the bedroom oY M'Ciillycuddy ' s daughter , a trirl sixteen years old , whom they violently dragged out of bed , and , regardless of the incessant and feeling entreaties of the mother to permit the girl to dress herself , the heartless ruffians ¦ forced her through the window in that lamentable condition , leaving six of the party behind to prevent any trace of the fugitives . In a desperate struggle to shelter the daughter , her mother was barbarously beaten by these savages , and now remains under the care of doctors . Four of the gang have been arrested .
  
  Affecting Kvent . — >> e have received intelligence of tne almost sudden demise of Mr . William Ilctheringlon , a ; tine promising young gentleman of eighteen years of age , son of the late \ V . lletherington , Ksu ,., of Hirkenficad , and recently appointed a second lieutenant in the . « 0 th Rifles . Last summer he had been engaged in a rowing match , and , from the exertion at the . oar , his hands becoming blistered , he incautiously , whilst in a state of perspiration , dipped them into the cold , water . Eruption and gathering ensued , causing much pain and annoyance , and this continuing for a considerable time , he went to London , and , it is apprehended , took unskilful advice , by which , tli ( itigli lie appeared to be cured , ( he disease was
  
  probably thrown into the system-by the too rapid drying up of the sores . lie returned home to his family apparently quite recovered , and , after remaining a short tijn <» , resolved to return to the military college at Brussels , ; where he had before studied , to make the best use of his time in professional . acquirements On his arrival there he was congratulated by bis former companions , to whom he was much endeared ; but , alas' ! on Wednesday week , when lie sat down to dinner with them , he suddenly remarked that he felt extraordinary sensations , and could e < it nothing . Heitig observed to bo ill , and afterwards to taint , he was immediately carried to boil , and received every possible attention ; but , to the grief of all around liim , he expired early the following morning .
  
  Home Circuit . —Majdstone , Wednesday , Nov . 27 . —The commission of gaol delivery for the county of Kent was opened on Tuesday last by Mr . Justice Williams , and this nioming the business of the assizes commenced . There are -forty-two prisoner * for trial , seven of whom are charged with murder . There are also several other serious offences . The Case of Richard Dadd , the Parricide . — Mr . Bodkin made an application to tlie Court in reference to the above prisoner , who , it will be remembered , after having murdered his father , made his way to France , and was eventually brought back to
  
  this country and committed for trial . The learned Counsel , after having briefly alluded to the circumstances of tlie case , said there was no doubt that the unhappy young man was insane , and he had been removed by order of the Secretary of State to a criminal lunatic asylum , where he now remained . As the trial , therefore , could not come , on , he would upply to the Court to discharge the recognisances of the witnesses who had been bound ' over , and toorder that the money and other valuables taken from the person of the deceased gentleman at the time of the discovery of the murder might be delivered to his friends . —The Court made the order .
  
  Tue Botanjc . vl Remedial System . ' —PRESENTATION " of Plat £ to 1 > r . Coffin *—On Thursday-evening the friends of Dr . Coffin , medical ; botanist , took tea together in the public room , Bull Close-lane , Halifax , on which occasion nearly 200 people sat down . The room was tastefully decorated with evergreens , < tc ., and the proceedings enlivened by the performances of a musical band . After tea , Mr . John Gibson , President of the Halifax Botanical Society , was called to the chair , who offered some general observations on the progress of scientific discovery , dwelt upon the benefits of botanical societies , especially in reference to the working classes , and concluded with an eulogium upon the character and merits of Dr . Coffin .
  
  Mr . Joseph Sutcliffe then read a lengthened address , in which was noticed the various cures performed by Dr . | Coffin through the agency of medical botany ; after which he presented a silfer vase to the Doctor , and on which was inscribed— " Presented to Dr . Coffin as a memento of the services he lias performed in Halifax , the efficiency of his gratuitous relief of the distresses of the sick and indigent poor , and of the invaluable information conveyed to the public through the medium of his lectures on botany . " Dr . Coffin returned thanks in a speech of considerable length ; lie observed that as to the gift with which they had presented him , it might perish , but the sentiments contained in the address would never die , being inherent in the heart of man . Though they
  
  might be-perverted by improper education , as was the case as it regarded the science and practice of medicine , yet it was his privilege to be the humble instrument of pointing out a . more excellent way , and to dissipate % hxs mistaken * notion that no one could heal disease but those educated at the schools . He alluded to his forthcoming work on medical botany , the principles of which would be the basis on which the botanical associations would be formed . The meeting was addressed on the advantages of botanical knowledge and the benefit of associations for its diffusion , by Messrs . C . Fielding , -A . Titbwell , D . Iloss , Mr . Stevens , of London ( l ) r . C . ' s ifirst patient ) , and I ) r . Smith , of Todmorden . Last year a gold medal , in case , was presented at Leeds to Dr . Coffin ^ by a number of the inhabitants of that town .

  The League axb ] Anti-Leagce at Holmtjr ^ h Yorkshire . —We hadia lecture from Mr . Harper , of the Anti-League , on Friday night last . His object was Free Trade , which he handled in a masterly manner . He was often interrupted by a leaguer in the body of the hall , ! named iSathan Littlewood , a shop-keeper . He mounted the orchestra twice for the purpose of refutingUhe arguments of the lecturer , but never before was there such a specimen of middle-class ignorance ! lie . denied this , and denied
  
  that ; but when he had the chance to refute the arguments , he completely forgot to mention them . In fact , he was a complete clown for the audience . At the conclusion of ihe lecture , another leaguer , named Beardsell , tried his hand , but to little effect . Finding that the question of ' prote < ttion to labour , " was to be crowned with victory , the leaguers thought proper to try another iplan ; that of a public discussion , This is to comei off on Thursday , betwixt Mr . Harper and Mr . Ackland , if he can be got ; if not , with some other lecturer of the Anti-Corn League .

On taking the chair , he proceeded to state the objects of the meeting , assuring them that if the strike now pending inj Manchester was defeated by the tyranny of the finri , in consequence of not being supported by their fellpw bhop-mates throughout the country , the time would soon come when a similar attack would be made ! upon them in Birmineha-m ,
