CttiAStrOW . —ExEctTios of Doolai * akd Reddihq . —On Friday , May Uth , pursuant to sentence , the extreme penalty of the law was carried into execution upon Dennis Doolan and Patrick Redding , for the murder of John Green , ganger on the Edinburgh Railway . The great interest excited by thiB melancholy sJait brought vast multitudes from a distance to see the unfortunate men expiate their offence near to the place where the murder was perpetrated . A 3 early as five o ' clock on Friday , the people began to assemble in thousands in front of the gaol , and the numbers kept swelling until the prisoners were brought out . Judging from what was passing in front of-the prison , no one would have thonght there was going to be a public execution :
all appeared to be glee and merriment , and the writer of this actnally heard jokes passing , and sportive alioiions made to the doom and approaching sufferings of two fellow-mortals about to be sent from this world to another . A little after seven o ' clock in the morning troops of dragoons , posses of police , and one or two small companies of foot soldiers and artillerymen , came to prevent any outbreak on the part of the overwhelming multitudes assembled . Several carriages were coming at this period ; one was a long black vehicle , with seats across for the unfortunate prisoners , and Bishop Murdoch , and one or two ministers of .. tie Catholic religion ; and a number of other carriages for the Sheriffs , magistrates , and executionerall stood in front of the
, gaol . At eight o ' clock the prisoners came out of their cells , took their seats in the carriage without any assistance , and sat seemingly indifferent to what was passing . Redding , on first comiag out , was pale and agitated , but with an effort regained his composure . The procession baving been formed , and every thing got into a state of readiness , the assemblage began to move to the place of execution , about four miles distant , to : he place called Crosshill . As the miss of human beings moved from the gaol up Highstreet till it goi out of town , the press was really awful ; the windows above and the streets below were swarming with meu , women , and children , all
anxious to see the prisoners ; nor was the road much thinned till the procession began to approach the place of suffering . Redding , all the -while , seemed to sit with his head bowed and ind : ff rent to everything passbg ; Doobn remained quite firm till he got b ? vond- Bishops-bridge , and be ^ an to approach the place of execniion—his whole frame shook , and he turned as pale as death . "When within a mile of the scaffold , several dragoons from Edinburgh , who had been guarding ike place ail l ^ gh ' ., now rode aud met the procession , going along with it to the place , formed a large circie round the : atal scaffold . The place chosen : " or the gallows was a rising ground at a short dfstar . ee from the Kirkintilloch road on the
right , si : r , a : e between the road and the bridge wnere Green lost hiihfe . Kight below the scaffold , in the direction of Glasgow , ^ as a re ^ uiai decliviiy , from the base of which the instrument of death was easily seen ; beyond thi =, in the same direction , the road took a gradual rise , forming an amphitheatre , where thousands upon thousands saw the melancholy scene . Between nine and ten the prisoners arrived at the scaffold , where was a temporary erection , iu which the finisher of the law pinioned the prisoners ; to this they yielded with the greatest firmness , and .. hen tcok their stand under the fatal beam . Bishop Murdoch accompanied tbem to the drop , and prayed most fervently for the up fortunate men , and in thi 3 exercise ihev engaged like men on the threshold of
another world . Their religious exercises having be : ? n gone through , the executioner began to do his duty , by putting a cap over Redding ' s face , which had been provided , for the occasion ; the unfortunate man ' s shirt collar . was then put down , and the fatal noose placed round his Deck . Doolan ' e eye was stedfastly fixed upon his companion while the preparations were making . Just before She cap was palled orer Doolan ' s face—the following expressions in prajer escaped his lips—and with a strong voice . " O God , be merciful to me ; forgive my sins ; Lord Jefus Chri .-t , into thy hand 3 I commend my spirit ; Lord Jesus , receive my soul . " Every thing being in a stale of readiness , the signal was put into Redding ' s hand . The prisoners stood a few seconds , as if making their last appeal to
Heaven for mercy , when the handkerchief dropt ; ihe bolt was instantly drawn . Redding died almost without a struggle . D jolan ' s sufferings were great ; the noose had got shifted , and for four minutes his agonies were horritic . The bodies , after hanging forty minutes , -were taken down , and buried within ihe precincts of the gaol . The drolleries indulged in upon the __ road showed how little capital punishment does towards awing the multitude , and making salinary impressions upon the minds of the people . Let us hope that these disgusting scene * will not be repeated—that poverty , the superinducing cause of every crime , sha ll vanish before mild and equal laws ; and that peace , contentment , and equal laws shall be the portion , as they are the bir thright , of etery inhabitant of this country .
The Co . wict Harbiet Longlet . —The Jury who tried her for the" murder of her child recommended her to the mercy of the Court , and the Judge ordered ^! M » K > tt # o of death fro W-rooerdod ^ ifn '" * her , intimating that he thought the ends of justice would be fully answered by her undergoing a punishment short of death . A few days since an erder wa 3 received at Newgate directing the convict to be transported for the term of ten year 3 . The unfortunate woman still remains in Newgate , where Ehe has conducted herself with propriety , but shortly will be removed , in order to be sent abroad by the next vessel that sails with female convicts .

CASUSIiE , —The A . vti-Cor ^ law League deteatldistheTotbw Council !—Afew days ago , at a meeting of this body , Mr . Alderman Ross brought forward his promised motion for a total repeal of the Corn Laws . There was an unusually large attendance of members present on the occasion , and considerable aifierenee of opinion prevailed on the subject . Mr . Ross made a long and tedious speech , full of quotations and false data , from which he erroneously reasoned—drawing the mo 3 t groundless and extravagant conclusions ; he concluded by moving" That ihe Town Council of Carlisle do petition Parliament for a total repeal of the Corn Laws . " Mr . James Steel , Editor of the Carlisle Journal , seconded the motion , but reserved anything he had to say until any other gentleman might address the meeting . Mr . Alderman Mounsey moved
an amendment to the effect— "That the Counci ] ought not to interfere in the matter ; but let a public meeting be called , and the sense of the iowb be taken on the subject . ' A 3 Mr . blounsey ' s amendment was about to be put , Mr . Ellwood Brockbank proposed a second amendment to Mr . Ross ' s motion , to the effect that the Council approved of the ilinisterial measure for an alteration in the Corn Laws . Here some very angry discussion took place , Mr . Railton and others charging Mr . Steel with deceiving the Council on a former occasion , by giving it to understand that they only wished for inquiry . Mr . Steel indignantly denied the charge ; but which was distinctly reiterated by several members of the Council . The Mayor then put Mr . Mounsey ' 3 amendment , when i t appeared as below : —
Mr . Mounsey ' s amendment ... ... 11 Against it 15 Majority ... 4 Mr . Brockbank ' s amendment 17 Against it 9 Majority against Mr . Ross ' s motion ... 8 This is a very important decision , for it shows the feelings of the members of the Town Council ; and that they arc not to be misled by the mis-statements of the anti-Corn Law League , of which Mr . Ross , the Mayor , and some others form a part . They dare not call a public meeting , for they know they would be beaten .

Ma . DrEB , the magistrate of Marlborough-fltreet police-office , London , died on Monday afternoon . An Epidemic has . been for some weeks raging among the Boldiers of the firet battalion of Grenadier Guards , stationed in the Tower , which has in some instances proved fatal , and not less than eighty men have been sent to the Military Hospital at Westminster . It resembles influenza . Lord Mklbourkk and thb Bot Jokes . —At Queen-square police office , on Saturday , William John Donovan , described as a bricklayers labourer , was charged with exhibiting a placard on the footway in front of the House of Lords , to the annoyance and obstruction of the passengers . The charge was made under the 8 th section of the 54 ih clause of the
new police act . Police constable Carter , 151 B , stated that abont half-past four o ' clock , he was on duty in front of the House of Lords , when he observed the defendant parading up and down , in the front of a House with a board , on which was a p lacard , reflecting upon the character of Lord Melbourne . The defendant ' s desire appeared to be that of attracting the attention of the Lords to his placard . He then took defendant into custody . —The placard was exhibited in court , and was as follows : — ' Exiracl ; from Jones ' s Peep into the Palace : — There certainly is , my Lord , a vast majority of palace dinners in favour of your Lordship over myself , for on making reference to the palace circular I find from June , 1837 , the time when her Majesty ascended the throne , to the present time , your Lordship has * taken pot luck with her Majesty 867 times ; m ; . self four times : or , to place it thus : —Viscount
Melbourne , 867 dinners ; & . Jone 3 , 4 ; majority for Lord Melbourne , 8 G 3 ;—thus giving yonr Lordship a clear working majority of 8 G 3 dinners over me . London : Pattie , 4 , Brydges-sireet . " Mr . Burrell ( to the defendant)—Have you anything to say ? The defendant said he waB a poor labouring man , and glad to earn a shilling . Ho kuew nothing of the laws ; he had been employed by Mr . Pattie , of Brydges-street , to carry the placa rd , and was told to go dovra to the Houses of Parliament . At . Burrell said , defendant had committed an offence punishable under the police act , and he could not do otherwise than convict him in the mitigated penalty of five shillings , or ia default seven day ' s imprisonment . The defendant being unable to pay the fine , was locked up , but in the afternoon Mr . Pattie , the publisher , came down to the court , and paid it for him .
The validity of baptism has been decided by Sir Herbert Jenner , in the Arches Court . An action had been brought by Mr . Cliff , an inhabitant of Gedney , in the county of Lincoln , against the Rev . Thomas Sweet Escott , vicar of the parish , for having refused to bury the corpse of the prosecutor ' s infant daughter . The proceeding was instituted under the 68 th Canon , whereby it is decrt-ci , that" fto minister shall refuse to bury any corpse that is brought into the churoh or churchyard , convenient warning hav . ing been previously given to him ; and if he shall refuse to bury the same ( except tho party deceased were denounced , excommunicated for some grievous crime , <§ ce . ) he shall be suspended by the Bishop of his diocese from his ministry for the space of three months . " The defence was , that ** in the Rubric of the Book of Common Prayer , which was part and parcel of the statute 13 th and Uth Charles 11 ., c . 4 ., in the order for the burial of the dead , it was
enjoined that such office was not to bo used for any that are unbaptized , excommunicated , or having laid violent hands upon themselves ; that the deceased having been baptized by a Wesleyan Methodist minister , any rite of baptism performed by him was null and void ; and that the child was therefore unbaptized in the eye of the law and the church . " Sir Herbert Jenner , in a speech which occupied between four and five hours in the delivery , decided that baptism by a Dissenting clergynjan was tantamount to lay baptism ; that Mr . Escott was bound , according to the canons and constitution of the Church oi tngland to bury the child ; and that by refusing to do so he had subjected himself to eccles : astical consura . It had , Sir Herbert said , with a most praiseworthy and benevolent spirit been decared , that the party proceeding was oniy desirous that Mr . Escott should be admonished , and not canonically punished ; but the Court had no discretion in the case : Mr . Escort was therefore sentenced to be suspended for three mouths , and to pay the costs .
Arrival of the Gke . it Westek . v . —BaisroL , Mat 14 . —The Great Western arrived at Kingroad from New York this evening at eight o ' clock , having left New York at two o ' clock on the 1 st inst ., thus completing her home voyage in thirteen days . Her outward voyage was completed in fourteen days and a half , having arrived at New York on the 23 rd of April . She has brought home ninety-seven passengers , and some despatches for Government , but no specie . We have rectivedby her New York papers to the 1 st inst ., but we regret to say that up to the
time of her departure nothing whatever was known of the President , although news had reached New York from Havannah , and other West India islands , to the lota of April . In the House of Assembly for the State of New York an important debate upon the case of Mr . M'Leod had taken place on the 19 th ult ., on the motion of a Mr . Homann ( a decided Locofoco ) for the release of Mr . M'Leod , Mr . Homann holding it to be inconsistent with the national honour to eontiauo Mr . M'Leod in pjis 4 > ja after the Government of Great Britain had taken the affair
of the Caroline upon themselves . Mr . M Leod however , still continued in prison at the time the Great Western Bailed , and nothing definitive was known of the negociatioas between vhe United States Government and that of Great Britain , nor would anything definitive be done in the matter until the extra session of CoDgress . It was , however , known that a good understanding subsisted between the organs of the two Governments at Washington on the subject . Congress was to be convened on the 31 st of May , and the eyes of the whole country , it was said , would turn in anxious expectation on the first movements of the dominant party . The new
President was going on well , and the impression was becoming general that he would infuse into every branch of the public service a degree of energy and integrity that had not been seen since the early days of the republic , occupying , as he did , a position independent of all parties . In Canada a strong opposition was growing up against Lord Sydenham , and the Canadians were in a state of considerable excitement at the proposed alteration of the timber duties iu the Imperial Parliament . A meeting of the commercial interest had been held at Quebec , and strong resolutions against it passed , with which they had waited on the Governor General . Lendon paper .
Mistress aud Maid . —At Hatton Garden policeoffice , on Saturday , Aim Horweil , a respectably attired woman , who was described in the police sheet as being married , and residing at No . 11 , Park-terrace , Camdentowa ; and Hannah Milligan , a young woman , who was described as her servant , were placed at the bar , before Mr . Greenwood , charged by Sergeant Grey , No . 12 , G . division , with being drunk , fighting , and creating a disturbance . — Grey having been sworn , stated that , yesterday morning , about one o ' clock , he was attracted by a noise in Swinton-street , Gray ' s-inn-road , and , on proceeding thither , he found the prisoners fighting together . Milligan knocked Horwell down , and rolled her in the kennel : and , on Horwell getting
up , she belaboured her with her parasol . Witness separated them , and threatened that he would take them to the station-house if they did not go home . They left the spot , bui , in a short time , they returned , and commenced fighting again , when , with the assistance of policeman 39 G ., he took them to the station-hou ? e , when a bottle of gin was found in the possession of Horwell , who said she was a respectable married woman , residing at No . 11 , Park-terrace , Camden-town , and that Milligan was her servant . —Constable 39 G . corroborated this evidence , and produced the bottle of gin ( a ginger-beer bottle ) . Inspector Penny here stated that the mistress was well known . She had been in custody a month ago for being drunk , and she was then
bailed out . She had also been at Islington stationhouse , under singular circumstances . —Horwel ] : I certainly was in custody about last Christmas . I had a party of friends , and took too much wine . ( A laugh . )—Mr . Greenwood : What have you to say to being drunk and fighting with your servaut , as you call her ! Horwell—I went to see my husband off to New Orleans yesterday morning , and I received an invitation to take some vrineat the docks ; I took my ser rant with me , and we certainly did tako more than agreed with us , and we quarrelled on our way home . Inspector Penny—She told me that she had a
" tasting order , " to taste wine at the docks , and she was so fond of " Malaga" that she took too much of it . ( A laugh . ) Mr . Greenwood—How do you account for the possession of the gin , after " tasting" so much " Malaga V ( A laugh . ) Horwell—We called upon our baker on our way home , and he gave me the gin . Mr . Greenwood—Such conduct is not very reputable—drunk and fighting at such an hour in the morning . Inspector Penny expressed his suspicion that Mrs . Horwell and her servant were no better than they should be , and that the former kept a house of a certain description . She had been seen about at late hours in the Pentonville-road . Mrs .
Horwell ( starting with apparent astonishment . ) Oh , dear 1 I can assure you I am a respectable married woman , and I am living with my poor old mother , with her broken finger , in Park-terrace . Hayliss , the usher , said he knew Park-terrace , Camden-town , to be a most respectable place , and they were all highly respectable houses in it . Mr . Greenwood asked the servant what Bhe had to say ! Servant —( looking downward)—I certainly quarrelled wich mistress and we fought together , I am very sorry
for it . ( Laughter . ) Mr . Greenwood said that whether they were mistress or servant was quite immaterial ; if she , Horwell , was mistress the case was rendered more disgraceful , that ehe should be found drunk fighting with her servant . He would convict her ( Horwell ) in the penalty of 20 s . and Milligan in the penalty of is . Mrs . Horwell clasped her hands , bawled out and exclaimed , " Oh ! my God ! I hav nt got the money , what shall I do ; do forgive me , I pray . " Both prisoners were locked up until their fines were forthcoming .

A German newspaper in London , it appears .,, ^ s the next nuisance to be endured by the public ; as if German principles and habits were not already sufficiently propagated among an Eiiglish community .
Such a speculation could , of course , only be encored into upon the supposition that there is Germanism enough amongst us to make it pat / , fartheidea of Germans doing anything from disinterested motives would be utterly ridiculous . Ab to a Gorman paper being taken in by the vagabondising personages who infest this metropolis , its projectors are much too shrewd to form any such rash expectations . They rely mainly , doubtless , on the amiablo propensity of native noodles to patronise foreign ialcnt . Yet we might be content , one would imagine , with German singers , German musicians , and German humbugs of other kinds too numerous to mention . We might have hoped to keep tho press pure ; but it seems as if the fashionable German infection of the day was to spread over 1 the surface of English society . —Satirist .
Sihglz Stick . —It would seem that this old English athletic game , for which the county of Somerset was once so famed , has not been entirely relinquished . Oa Monday , two matches came off , at the Three Crowns , Walcot , between the celebrated Simon Stone , and the well-known Uriah Wall , for £ 25 aside ; aud between Henry Dove and Israel Hole , for £ 10 aside . The game [ between the two former was most scientifically played . Stone was the winner in the third bout . Hole was the winner
in the eighth bout . Also a match between two Balheaston men , named Beasley and Sweet , which was won by the latter . Stone and Wall then commenced play again , but seven bouts haviDg been played without any decisive result , Wall " gave his head" ( as it iB technically termed ) to Stone , and he was accordingly deolared the conqueror . In like manner , Dove also "gave the head" to Hole , who was declared the victor . A considerable number of spectators assembled on the occasion . —Bath Chronicle .
A Thikstt Soul . —At Union Hall , London , on Saturday , Ali Babao , a lascar , was charged with entering a brewery and drinking a quantity of beer , beside spilling a quantity of the same liquor . At an early hour in" the- morning , as a policeman was on duty at Peckham , he heard a noise as he was passing Berryman ' s Brewery * and , on entering , he saw the defendant , who was on his hands and knees , drinking beer out of a waste tub , which was underneath , a barrel , from which , the tap-cock had been drawn , and . t ) w > -parter w&a flowing into tho ' vesiial feireath it . Tne tub was flowing over ; and , when the defendant was discovered in such a situation , his exense was , that he was thirsty , and that , having
found his way into the brewery , he was determined to make the best use of his time , and having no smaller vessel , he pulled the tap-cock out of one of the barrels , and filled the waste butt , out of which he drank until he was satisfied . He added that he had no intention of stealing and carrying away any of the liquors ; and all that he wanted was to satisfy his appetite , and hoped that he would not be punished this time . In reply to the magistrate , the defendant said that ho was a native of Calcutta , and wanted to go home , but could not get a passage , and he was starving about the streets . The magistrate committed the defendant for a mouth , as an idle and disorderly character .
The Waldegbave Affaib . —There is a strange story abroad , relative to the outrage for which Lord Waldegrave and Capt . Duff aro now confined in the Queen ' s Bench . It is said that one of the parties could , without any difficulty , have proved an alibi , but that it could only have been done at the expense of a young aristocrat , whose orthodox prospects would have been endangered . The awkwardness of a possible exposure , it is said , was the real reason of a late resignation of a seat in the House of Commons . —Chronicle . Mr . Hetherington , a prisoner in the Queen ' s Bench , complains of the indulgence shown to Lord Waldegrave in being permitted to promenade with his lady between the gates ; and he asks whether he and his fellow prisoners are not entitled to a similar indulgence ? He adds , that the "liberal" donations to the poor prisoners were confined to a solitary 2 s . Cd . dropped into the poor-box by a gentleman who accompanied Lady Waldegrave when she first visited the prison .
Extraordinary Fields of Ice in the Atlantic . —The following letter , which will be found very interesting , was given to us by the commander of the Great Western on boarding that vessel : — " Great Western steam-ship , Bristol Channel , May 14 , 1841 . —Sir , —Under the impression that ice , to the extent it has been seen this year , has never before been heard of in these latitudes , I give you the following particulars for the information of your readers : —On Sunday , April 18 , the ship steering west , at six p . m . first saw . one iceberg on the starboard bow ; at 7 3 D , passed it ; at that time , four or five others in sight ; at 9 15 , passed several small pieces of ice—slowed the engines . In a few minutes after , the ship was surrounded with light field ice ,
which appeared similar to a field I ran through on the 11 th February , 1839 : this induced me to go slowly , with the hopes of getting through , as I had done on that occasion , but , by 9 30 , finding it became closely packed , and much thicker , prudence dictated our escape by the same channel we had entered . I then stopped , and attempted to get the ship ' s head to the eastward by turning a-head and astern until there was room for her to come round ; in the course of this operation , the ship had occasionally ( at least ) two strokes heel given by either wheel passing over large masses of ice . At 10 15 , succeeded in getting the ship ' s head to the eastward , and by 11 entirely clear ; from that time went slowly , passing several icebergs ; the night at times very clear , the aurora
borealis very bright . At 3 30 a . m . of the 19 th , again got embayed in the ice , stopped , hauled short round on our keel , and steered out E by S , coasting tho ico for five or six miles ; 4 40 , kept her to the westward running through innumerable icebergs until 8 30 , when we passed the last iceberg and point of the field ice . When the sun arose the ico was visible as far as the eye could reach in an unbroken line from NE by E by the northward to NW by W . at the 6 ame time icebergs innumerable in every direction , forming one of the most magnificent sights I ever beheld . The first iceberg we saw was in lafc . 43 , long . 48 . 30 , and this last in lat . 42 . 20 , long . 50 . 0 . I am quite sure there was an unbroken ifield of that extent , and from what I heard from Captain Bailly , of the American packet ship United States , I have no doubt the field ice extended , with very little break
, to lat . 40 * 0 , where Captain Bailly fell in with it on the morning of the 11 th . Several other ships also fell in with it in the same longitude , and were completely stopped , giving them an opportunity of killing seals , which were on it in great numbers . Some of the icebergs I estimate a little ( if at all ) less tnana mile Jong , and from ISO to 200 feet high ; this field of ice was in large masses , some of them not less than twenty feet sqnara by six feet thick or more . The temperature ef the water , when within two miles of tho first iceberg seen , fe ll suddenly from 50 degrees to 36 degrees ; air , 40 degrees to 36 degrees . When in the ice the water was 25 degrees , air 28 degrees ; during the remainder of the night and following morning the water was not higher than 30 degrees , nor the air higher than 32 degrees . Immediately after passing the last ice the water became 36 degrees , and the air 42 degrees . I am , Sir , &c , James Hoskin , captain . "—Loudon paper .

The Hat Tbade . —There are more than one thousand journeymen hatters put of employ in London and tho North of England , in consequence of their demanding an advance of wages and regulation of prices . The strike has continued eleven weeks , and there is no chance of a settlement . This applies to the fur hats ; and as the country shopkeepers cannot get a supply of their beavers , they are compelled to sell silk , so that the makers of the latter sort of goods are now reaping a rich harvest . Election Proceedings . —Mr . Thomas Gisborne , M . P ., made his appearance in Leicester on Wednesday , and breakfasted with his Radical friends at the
Hell . We understand this movement is in connection with the tottering state of the Ministry and the impending dissolution . The Radicals here are in great fear about returning Mr . Ellis , and intend to propose Mr . Gisborne instead of him . As aH instance of the versatility of this worthy , we may mention that he told the farmers that , under any . circumstances , corn could never be less than £ 3 per quarter . "How , then , " they inquired , "can you talk about cheap bread ? what benefit will the change bring to the poor f what can you say to them t" " Oh , " rejoined the Liberal , "I must think about that—I must hit upon something to say to them !

Destructive Fibe . —About twenty-five minutes to one o ' clock on Monday morning , the cooperage of Mr . Bryant , in Cross-street , Blaokfriars , was discovered to be oh fire : in a very short time the engines from the Waterloo-road station and the West of England were oa the spot , followed by those from Watling-street , &o . In less than ten minutes after tho outbreak of the fire the whole building was one mass of flame , a . nd the greatest fears were entertained for the safety of ihe houses on the left hand side of the street . By the united exertions of ths firemen , assisted by a good supply of water , the flames were confined to Mr . Bryant ' s premises , and by half-past one o ' clock all danger for the safety of the adjoining property was at an end . Owing to the confusion which prevailed , we could not ascertain whether Mr . Bryant is insured .
Bigamy and Abduction ; or , Possession Ninetenths of thb Law . —A rather novel case was tried at the Belfast Petty Sessions last Thursday . A gay Lothario , named Pat M'Cann , having succeeded in securing the affections of on © of the fair daughters of BaUymacarrett , called Nancy Walsh , offered to lead her to Hymen ' s blissful altar . Nancy embraced not only Pat , but the opportunity of being made happy through life ; and thereupon the pair proceeded to a couple-beggar , got married ^ and were returning homo ; but being , unfortunately , detained at a friend's house , another fair lady , called Peggy Burns , alias Graham , whose prior claim on Pat ' s hand is evident , stepped forward , and " forbade the banns . "
Pogg succeeded in carrying off by force tho astonished wight , and left the hapless Nancy to enjoy the benefits of single blessedness , not , indeed , until the windows of her friend ' s house had been left minus divers panes of glass , and her own fair person presented with a few tokens of affectionate recognition , in ihe shape of black eyes . Peggy , in tho meantime , thinking that not a moment was to be lost , managed matters so well , chat Pat allowed her to make him a happy man , and herself an honest woman . The case and cross-case being fully heard by the bench , both were dismissed , Mrs . Peggy M'Cann having to pay over to the less fortunate Nancy Walsh all costs . — Vindicator .
A Hint to the Female Chartists . —A writer in the Scotch Patriot , speaking of Mr . Moir , says : — "Like Mr . Feargus O'Connor , of whom he is an ardent admirer , Mr . Moir is a tall , handsome , wellproportioned gentleman ; and , so far as outward appearance goes , is in every way well qualified to hold the position of a leader . He has a clear complexion—a bald , open forehead—is also of fair height , and well-proportioned . His hair , which is not of very thick growth , is of a light sandy colour . He has a pair of small sparkling eyes , that , when adorned by his spoctacles , seem to penetrate every object on which they may be rivetted : and , upon
the whole , he may be described as a genteel , welldressed , good-looking , middle-aged gentleman . We would suppose him about forty years of age . He is a bachelor , by the bye , and , being free and affable in his manners , he would doubtless prove a very agreeable companion . Jfor any marriageable female <^< jr /» 5 /« wno . wa ^ WrtBi » a ^ eiM > Uffh to inspire him with the tender poBaion : But faels not a man to be cozened out of hia own opinion , or to be turned aside from the path he has chalked out for himself for any ordinary consideration .

Delavan himself will be appointed to the important trust of making the delivery . —New York Herald , April 30 .
General Jackson . —The newspapers have busied themselves very much of late with the pecuniary affairs of General Jackson , and considerable sentimentality has been expended upon a statement made in several of the journals that he had become poor by endorsing for his friends . The old Roman don't stand this , and has authorised a Pennsylvania paper to pronounce the story " false in every particular I " We need not say that we are very glad to hear it . Execution of Negroes . —Havannah . —Havannah papers to the 15 thhave been received in New Orleans .

The Bee , of the same city , says , that these thirty " were immediately arrested , tried , condemned , and executed . " The Courier adds , " It was understood at Havannah , that 8 , 000 troops were about sailing from Cadiz for Havannah . Indeed , a few of them arrived last week .

Attempted Murder and Suicide . —An attempted murder and suicide occurred on board the steamer Clipper , on Sunday evening last , while on her way from this city to Bayou Sara . As we could learn the particulars , it seems that Mr . Tiernan , an oid and respectable planter of Point Coupee , had a sum

He did nothing to the boy at , the time , but threatened him with a severe flogging on reaching Point Coupee . Shortly after Mr . T . went to his berth , lay down , and was soon asleep . The boy , probably instigated by the fear of future punishment , # < $ a large butcher ' s knife , want to his master ' s state room , and stabbed him twice in the throat , inflicting Bevere , and it was feared mortal , wounds . He then lied to the bow of the boatf ^ idraa 4 fae men wer e approaching to secure him . / jumped overDoarTJ , nini was seen no more . We learned the particulars at Donaldsonville on Sunday evening last , at which time it was
feared that M * . Tiernan would not survive . —New Orleans Paper-The notorious Vessel the Malek Anhel arrived at Baltimore on Tuesday , from Rio Janeiro , under command of Lieut . Ogden , of the U .
