      Fbatos on the ; Excise . — On Saturday mcrn ' . ng an extensive seizure of soap , upon whioh the o > ity was sought to be evaded , took place on the premises of Messrs . Price , Brothers , wholesale druggists , S . Mary Axe . It appears that a notice had been sent to the Excise-office by Messrs- Price , intiraatine ; that thir : y cases of soap were prepared for exportation ; in consequence of which Mr . William Moseley went to the premises for the purpose of inspection . The number of cases specified in tho notice were pointed oat , in order that the official seal might be put upon them , but in going over the premises he discow-red a frame that had been recently filled , to which his

      attention had not been called . This served to excite suspicion , and on clestr examination he found that cue of the coppers had been lately " cleanBed , " which left no doubt on the officer ' s mind that the soap in the frame had been recently and rapidly prepared , in oTder to evade the payment of d-uty . Under these circumstances Mr . Moseley bf ' zod the whole of the soap , npwiards of 7 , D 0 Dlb ., which , together with other matter in various stages of preparation , tbe frames , furnace , eopp / rs , &c . Tvere immodiatciy transferred to Her Majcs-y ' s Mores . Frauds in tho manufacture of soap liar ^ become so frequent of late , that the Excise Coir .: n s-itners havo deiermined ta enforce the law in all cases with tho u'mosi rigour .

      Sacrilege . —On . Tuesday night or Wednesday morning week a daring robbery v ? as eonr . m > Ued at th& Manchester Collegiate Church , by oue or more person * , who have hitherto escaped deitction . It appears that at about half-past fi ? e o ' clock on Wednesday morning the . apparitor , whose duty it is t © ring the bell at six o'clock , was proceeding along the churchyard for the purpose of admitting some plumbers to the roof of tbe building , when his attention was called to a window on the south side of the church , which bore marks of having been forcibly broken . Upon opening the doors he procured the attendance of several policprnen , some of whom were stationed outside of the window , and others ent * rod the church . Upon anlocking liw largo door of the

      Chapterhouse , adjoining tbat pan of the bui ] iin # called Cheetham ' s Chapel , they found the whole of the cupboards unlocked , doors broken open , and all the gowns , &c . lying on the floor . The large 6 i ! ver mace with ebony handle , tipped with silver , and the front of which was inscribed "Christ Church , 1794 , " belonging to the Dean and Chapter , and the churchwardens' mace , together with a bottle of wine and some biscuits , had been taken away . Tho maces were locked in a bbx inside a strong cupboard , with oak front , and it is supposed the thieves used a strong broad-pointed chisel , which was found near the spot , to break it open . - A remarkably strong oak chest ,

      with three common looks and a padlock , in which were kept deeds , &c , was also broken open , and the contents scattered about the floor . The thieves no doubt expected a rich booty in the shape of communion plate ; but ; they were disappointed , none of the communion plate being kept in the environ except daring those days on which the Sacrament is administered . Considering the number of iccfes broken open , and the great opposition which some of them would present to the robbers , they must have been in the building no lesBtcau from two to thiue hour 3 , A reward has been offered for the conviction of any of the offeaders . i

      Mtstbbiocs ami Distressikg Occurrence—On Tuesday , the 13 , h instant , a sailor , named William Ross , belonging to Invergordon , was fonnd lying in a state of insensibility , at the road side , about a quarter of a mile south of Conon-bridge . He v > as conveyed to Mr . II . Mackenzie ' s innt at Con- n , and medical aid having been rendered him by Mr . Donald Ross , Dingwall , the poor fellow was so far recovered a 3 to be able to state , that , as he was sitting on the parapet by the roadside , a man camo past , smoking his pipe ; : The stranger was going towards Conon , and he asked him for a light for his pipe , when the man , without answering , gave him a severe blow , which stunned him , and caused his falling over the parapet . There he lay , apparently dtad , until discovered . The parapet is about ten feet from the ground . When questioned by the procurator fiscal , he adhered to his statement as to the cause of his injuTy . The description he gave of this inhuman assaiiant is , that he led a black horse ,

      with the bridle over his arm—wore a brown coa ' , with clear buttons , but to his knowledgo ho had never seen him before . The most prompt and energetic measures are in operation to discover the person ; but , we are sorry to say , hitherto without effect . Next day , Ross was much worse , and all efforts to prevent a fatal termination having proved unavailing , he expired about one o ' clock , p . m . Upon a post mortem examination of the body by Doctors Ross and Mackid , it was ascertained that the young man ' s neck had beeu broken by the fall , and bis head severely injured . On Thursday , the body was removed to the house of his parents , at Invergordon . The deceased was a dutiful eon , and bore an excellent character . He had just served out his apprenticeship , and Was on his way to Inverness , to pro-CYTe a situation , when he met with his untimely fate . —Edinburgh lYilness .

      Extensive Seizube op Co ?< traband Goods . — During the last three or four days , the commissioners at the Custom He-use have received information of the following extensive seizures : —On Monday last , the revenue officers at Exeter boarded a vessel called the Elizabeth , belonging to that port , reported to be laden ! with coalB . After rummaging about tbe ship for some time , they discovered 189 casks of manufactured tobacco , weighing four tons , concealed amongst the cargo . In other parts of the ship they also found several boxes of cigars , a small box of tea , some Bilk , and some boxes of Eau de Cologne , the datieB on which exceeded £ 5 , 000 . Tbe vessel and contents were then se zed , and her master ( Captain Sarratt ) and the crew were arrested , and conveyed before the sitting magistrate at Exeter , where the case was fully gone into , terminating in a penalty of £ 100 being inflicted upon

      each of tbe defendants ; and , in default of payment , they were committed to the House of Correction for isiX months . The vessel , it afterwards came out , was loaded with coals at Newport , in Wales , and during her passage to Exeter she touched at Guernsey , where the contraband goods were shipped . She has since , by order of the Commissioners of Customs , been condemned . At this port , en Tuesday last , a seizure was made on board of tho French smack Uoavelle Societe , M . Hay , master , from Cherbourg , laden with eggs and fowls , of about 100 gallons of brandy , which was found secreted among the cargo . The whole of the ship ' s company were arrested , and remain in custody . Near Grimsby , on Friday last , upwards of 4 , 0001 bs . of tobacco was seized on board of the sloop Pink , of London . Tho capture was made by the revenue cutter Lapwing . The crew are in custody . —Hampshire Telegraph .

      HEALTH BETTER THAN RICHES . Away with tho boast ofj abundance and gold J Away with the honours which fame would bestow !

The following cage , which oecum d a iW <* u . ys auo , in tho churobyaru of Wicic , shows pretty clearly thai an interment of this kind had taken place , and that , too , while tho poreon was alive ;—On the grjave-digger removing part of the lid of a coffin whilst digging a grave , ho : was struck with the strange manner in which the bones aud skull wcro placed , any calling another person to look at it

      they removed gently the whole top of the coffin , when it was distinctly seen that the body appeared to be drawn ( iofli a into tha co £ Bu , the arm bones stretched up over the head , and the latter turned on its side mar to the thighbones . The chips and shavings , too , whioh are usually placed under or about the heaJ , appe ared to bo all pushed down towards the legs .

      Extiuop . dinary Sdicide . —Mr . Higgs held an inauest 00 Saturday at the King ' s-Head , Enfield , on view of the body of Mr , Joseph Vaughsu , many years in the commission of the peace for the county of Middlesex . It appeared from the evidenCO of several of deceased ' s domestics ,: that lor some days past he bad appeared to bo in a . remarkably gloomy and desponding state , of mind . Between eight and nine o ' clock on Thursday morning last , deceased ' s family was t , lirown into a state of alarm by its being discovered ; on his not appearing at the breakfast tab ]*) as usual , tnat ho had secretly quitted the house . Tho tro ^ t painful suspicion being thus excited , search was inst ; : p . t ! y made for deceased ia the neighbourhood of the Lieinises , and he waa almost

      immediately found dro-viied in tho New River , tho water being so clear tha :- the corpse could plainly bo seen lying at the bottom . The body was immediately got ashort" , when it was further discovered that deceased , to render his fate quite crtain , had tied hia legs together tightly with a rope , and had also coiled a piece © f cord round his wrists with an iron weight of nearly 3 ftlb attached to it . It is believed that the loss of a vary lar ^ e sum of money by speculation in business ha ! d preyed upon deceased ' s mind and cauaed him to commit this rush aoc . It may also be added , that tho unfortunate gentleman's mother was deranged , aud thiLt , his brother committed self-destruction . Thefjury , ai ' icr some deliberation , returned a verdict of "Temporary insanity . ' '

      Escape of a Wolf . —On Wednesday night , shortly after eleven o ' clock , when Mr . Wright ' s keepers wore preparing for the removal of his managerie from the Green , some incident occurred which so startled rone of the black Russian wolves , that ho became refitivo aud violent , suddenly broke his chain , and ran out of the show . The appearance ot such an unsocial creature at large , of course excited no small commotion aud terror amongst those who were still lingering at the exhibition ? , booths , and stalls . On leaviag the menagerie , the woif rau down the Green , and momentarily placed himself in one of the booths , ifrom which all other tenants speedily decamped . He then took his departure and made his way , amid screams and confusion , down the bazaar ;

      proceedings from thence through Union-street and several other streets , returning Jown Hertford-street and again towards the Green , going at a sharp pace up the Warwick-road towarua Siiviohall . It was now evident that there mi ^ ht be some difficulty in recapturing this dangerous animal , which had so far evaded and tired down his pursuers ; and some more systematic plan , for the purpose , became necessary . Accordingly , an excellent wolf-dog was taken from the managerie for tho purpose , and after having scented a track of some miles , brought the keepers to a field near Stoneleigh , where , after a harrassing chase of several hours , ihe fugitive wj , s rather lured than overtaken , and brought back to his cage . — Coventry Herald .

      Fatal Accident at Carlisle . —On Saturday evening last , an inquest was held at the Three Crowns Ion , Botchergate , Carlisle , before Mr . Carriek , coionor . aud a jury , on view of the body of the Rev . Mtr . Da vies , of Ponrithv who was killed in attempting to ascend the omnibus , which conveys passeugeTB to and from the Railway Station . It appeared ! , thVjt on Saturday afternoon , about half-past one o ' clook , he was proceeding from Mr . G . H , Head ' s bank to the railway station , to meet Vu son , who he expected from Newcastle . When about half-way down Botchcrgato , the omnibus overtook him , and he waived to the driver to draw up until ho ascended . The driver was in the act of ( ioiwg so , when Mr . Davis Euddenly made towards the

      omnibus , and , in . dofng so , came in contact with one of the wheels ,, which apparently knocked him down , His head .-uni'ng in violent contact with the ground . lie was /; otu ^> instantly , and placed in a chair ; but the People assembled , seeing that he was oying , conveyed him into a neighbouring house , whero he died in a frw minutes . The deceased , we understand , has lately been subject to fits , and it is not improbable , that be toak one at the time ; he approached the omnibus ; for an old man who observed him stated , that he 9 ta ? gered like a drunken man . It was difficult to say , from ihe evidence produced on the inquest ,

      whether he was injured by the omnibus to such : \ n extent as to cause death ; or from the fall , which must havi ) pVodrced severo concession of tbe brain . Yerdic , " Accidental death . " A few minutes atter the iB ^ aEeholy aefdont , the deceased ' s son arrived from 2 Vetrestle , and ou calling at Mr . Hargreave ' s the carrier ' s warehouse to forward hia luggage to Penrith , he was informed ef the awfully sudden death of his father . The jury sent a recommendation to Mr . Hamilton , at the Bush Inn , to replace the driver of the omnibus , who had been suspended in consequence of the accident , as no blame whatever attached to him .

      Frightful Catastrophe . —Yesterday ( Friday ) intelligence ,, ieaohed this city that an awful accident bad occurred in the neighbourhood of Dunkerton , whereby the lives of many individaals wore sacrificed , while others who had escaped with life were lying in a desperately hopeloss state . The scene of the calamity was the coal pit known as Bray'a Down pic , about Feven miles from Bath , and three from Dunkcrton . From the evidence of Wm . EvanB , it appeared that as engineer , he had been putting some new works to the engines , and on the evening of tho acoident he had carefully examined it to see that all was right ; everything was in perfect order . Mr , Wait , one of too proprietors of tbe works , was with > im at the time ; and the engine was then at work . He left at half-past five o ' clock , and about half-past eight o'douk ha hoard of the accident at the pit . Ho went to see what was the

      matter . Saw the engineer , and asked him if he had put the plug in to keep tho arutn of the engine in gear ? He said he had . The witness then proceeded—I asked him whero tho plug was ! he said he did not know . I then asked it he had screwed up the nut Iihe eaid ho had not . The plug being left out would have caused this accrdent . Tho engineer had not been drinking . Tlithi if a platu placed to run over the plug to keep it in its . place ; if not placed over , it might have been driven out of Us plane . John Bcrryman deposed—I am bdilift' at Bray ' s-Down coalpit . Last evening , about > . iglit o ' clock , I gave the deceased their candles an > l other thirds . This was at the pit , just before they went down . They v ?*; re drawn up tor me to do so . All appeared right , and I asked the engineer if till vm riyh- 1 lie said , " Y ^ s . " -I stood by tho pit till I ihni-ut the men were : down about twenty uili ^ m . when 1 heard them crv out . I looked . ar > d ^ i \ v iht- drum

      was rnn ' i iug . ' The engineer was quite bobc . All the rope fell down with the meu . They Ml about fifty fathomsi I sent four men dowi , tne pit tc bTiag them up . There were five men kiil .-d on the spot , and one died about three hours afvr . Tr , o more are lying 111 a most dangoroua state . The engine must havo been in gear , or it could not have let down so far . Noshh'g of the kind has ever happened at the pit before . This being the whole of liie j evidence , the Jury , after a short deliberation , returned a verdict of " Accidental death . " It appears from t ' ue account given of the accident by Mr . Wat , the managing proprietor of the works , that it is ih j ; duty of tho engineer to placo the engine " in gear ; " j that is , to connect the drum-wheel with the flj' - '

      wheel by means of a plug provided for that purpose , and to secure which in its place there is an iron plate and" a nut . And in connexion with this part of fhe gubj . ct , it ia stated that the ongino was constructed by the Messrs . Acramans , of Bristol , and tbat it combines the latest improvements in construction providing for tho s-afety of tho colliers ; it has . been in work about two years , and has hitherto ' given the most perfect satisfaction . T / ie men having attached themselves to the chain 1 > y means of a hook and a piece of rope forming a noose for the reception of one leg , they were lifted oS the platform : by tbe engine , with the view to its being removed from the mouth of tfee pit , and were then let down ; but , after descending about 100 feet , the drum-wheel was observed to be revolving rapidly , having by some unaccountable means become disconnected with the wheel which should have regulated their descent ; and in consequence of the frightful velocity with

      which they descended , tho unfortunate men were dashed to pieces upon a projecting stage ereoted some few fathoms from the bottom of the pit . The names of the poor sufferers are—Job Richardson , aged 30 , married , but no family { Richard Aylesbury , aged 23 , not married ; Jacob Richardson , aged 36 , who is married and a family of six children ; Aaron Dando , aged 28 , who is married , but without a family ; Thomas Aylesbury , ag $ d 2 SL who has only been married three months ; and Jeremiah Filer , a youth aged 16 ; The appearance of ! the bodies was not buch as might nave been expected from the horrible manner in which death had been occasioned ; vyith the exception of Richard Aylesbury , the faces of ihe deceased presented no evidence of the frightful ciMaetrophe ' which had suddenly hurried- them into eternity ; their appearance being more that of parties who bad died peaceably ia their beds . — Math Herald .

      London Smithfield Cattle Market , Monday , June 26 . —Motwithstanding v ? e have to report the arrival of a full average time-of-year supply of beasts up to our market to-day , there was from the fact of the attendance of both London and country dealera —but especially that of the latter , who purchased extensively for various localities—being large , aud the 4 « a < i markets well oleared of their last week's arrivals , an evident improvement in the Beef trade , and the prices were fully 2 d 8 lbs higher than were those noted on this day se ' nnight , while a clearance was effected without difficulty . As to the general quality of the stock here to-day , we have to observe that that of beasts exhibited an improvement ; indeed .

      there was a good number of exceedingly useful aud well made up Heret ' ords , Dovons , Scots , &c , brought forward . Tbe Sheep , however , were not in first rate order , and we scarcely ever recollect to have seen SO few really prime old Downs in the pens as was the case this morning . But fow eases of epidemic were observed amongst tho beasts , but that disease was very prevalent amongst all breeds of sheep . The receipts from Norfolk comprised about 1 , 650 Scots , homebreds , and runts ; from Suffolk , Essex , and Cambridgeshire , 200 Scots ; from Lincolnshire , 90 short horns ; from Yorkshire , 200 beasts ; from the western and midland districts , ISO Herefords , runts , Devons , &c , ; from other parts of England 100 of different breeds : from Scotland ,

      240 horned and polled Scots ; and from Dublin , 40 Irish * beasts . We had rather an extensive supply of Sheep , but it was by no me , ans so large as that on . Monday last . The Mutton trade was firm , though not to' say brisk ; and the currencies rose quite 2 d per 81 bs ; the best Downs selling freely at 4 s 4 d per 81 bs , at whioh figure nearly the whole found purchasers . The numbers of La mbs were fair , and they commanded a somewhat improved inquiry . Dbwu qualities were 2 d per 81 ba higher , but in the value of other descriptions no improvement took place . Calves were in moderate supply and steady demand , at a rise of 2 d per 8 ibs . Prime small Porkers sold freely ; other kinds of Pigs slowly at last week ' s figures . No imports of live stock have taken place in London , or at any of the outports .

      London Corn Exchange , Monday , June 26 . — Having a , very scanty show of Wheat this morning from Esssex , Kent , and Suffolk , and scarcely anything j ' re ^ h up from more remote counties , factors displayed a greater degree of firmness than at the close of last week ; the slight abatement of Friday waa ^ conseqviently , recovered , and th ' e business done was at about the currency of this day se ' nnipht . We are stili without any country inquiry for free Foreign Wheat ; and the millers acting cautiously , the transacvious were on quite a reta'l ecale ; holder ? , nevertheless , remained firm , and purchases could noc have been made below last Monday ' ^ quotations . Wheat in bond was neglected ; the recent arrivals from abroad are being landed on importers' account . Flour moved off somewhat slowlj , but waa certainly not cheaper . With Barley we were again very sparingly supplied ; this grain excited aome attention ,

      and good distilling and grinding qualities were generally held Is per qr above ifce rates of this day week . Holders of Malt likewise asked more money , and a fair amoun t of business was done in the article . Tk s fresh arrivals of Oats were very small , as well from our own coast and Scotland as from Ireland . Factors consequently inthted on au advance of 6 d to la per qr , and the dealers * ' stocks having become very liijfafc , necessitous buyers had to pay tho enhancement . Tnere was not much passing in either Beans or Peas ; the supplies being however small of both these articles , previous terms wore very firmly maintained . Liverpool Cattle Market , Monday , June 26 . — Tbesuppiy of Cattle at market to-day has been much the same as last week , both with respect to number , price and quality . Beef 5 d te 6 d , Mutton 5 d to aid , Lamb 5 £ d to t ^ d per lb . Number of CaXt ' e : —Beasts 919 , Sheep stud Lambs 8 , 549 .

      Liverpool Corn Markkt , Monday , June 26 . — A few cargoes of Wheat and Malt have arrived during the week from the English coast , but the smrwta of Gra . in , &o . are altogether moderate . Under the influence of continued fine weather the traiehus been very dull ; the sale of a few parcels of Wheat amongst the local dealera forms the principal business in that grain ; and we have to reduce our quotations by fully 2 d per bushel . Flour , too , has met a languid demand , and aa 3 been offering on r-liber easier terms . For Oats we have had very little , inquiry , but , the supply bMng small , previous rates have been sustained . Oatmeal must be noted full ? 6 d per load cheaper . No change in the value of Bariey , Bsana or Peas .

      Maschesteb Cosn Market , Satubday , Juke 24 . —The favourable weather , noticed in our last report , of this day ee ' nnight , has been continued throughout ; he week ; aud it appears by the accounts received from various parts of the kingdom , that a most beneficial change has taken place in the appearance of the crops . There is a liberal supply of Wheat coastwise ; and the imports of Flour thence and from Ireland are to a fair amount . Of Irish Oatmeal 4 \ 368 loads aro reported . There waB very little inquiry for Wheat at our market this morning and we reduce , our quotations 2 d per 701 bs . Flour ia in . but moderate request , and to effect sales of inferior , or middling «• - ' ¦¦ - »* h er lower rates were submitted t tation for choii a tcarca article For Oatmeal -tL and late rates '• Richmond C We had a fair bnt oniy th ; n < Oats 2 s 8 c ! to to 4 s 6 d pet Jt ><
