Happily assistance was promptly rendered , and the flames after considerable exertions , were » ubdued , being confined to the stack where the fire originated . A large number of wheat and other corn stacks surrounded the one in question ; and from an examination that has since taken place since the iire , there is every reason to believe that the act was that of an incendiary . _ .. _ . . „

Oliver Duke , said that his attention was first called to the deceased on Tuesday last . Ho was of opinion that deceased was not Ittbnurinp ; under the effects of laudanum . He treated him for inflammation of the membranes of the brain . His head was excessively hot ., and the extremities cold .

Infanticidk . —Shocking Depratiti . —A caae of murder ( saja the Kilkenny Moderator ) , evidencing the most unnatural and revolting depravity—a child , the offspring of the incestuous intercourse between a brother and sister , having been deprived of life by the monsters who gave birth to it—lias recently been brought to light in thi 3 eounty . On the 19 th inst ., the police of the Goresbridge Constabulary station received information that a woman had been seen under suspicious circumstances with a newly born infant in a plantation near the town , and on the margin ot ' the river Barrow . The party immediately proceeded to the place indicated , but foundi the woman had left ; they , however , perceived certain marks in the grove which convinced them that a child had been there but a short time previously given birth to . Acting upon su » picion they proceeded to the house of James Murphy , a pensioner , upon searching which
they discovered several articles « f wearing apparel , marked with certain stains , and having arrested the man and his sister Margaret , the latter was declared , upon a medical examination , to have been recently delivered of a child . Both the parties wei'o committed to our county gaol by T . Bookey , E > q ., J . P ., for the murder of the infant , which is believed , upon too good authority , to be their own offspring . On the 22 nd instant the body of the unfortunate child was discovered by Sub-Inspector Clarke and the Goresbrhigc party of constabulary , concealed in a marsh adjoining the barrow , and contiguous to the town . An inquest was held on the body at Goresbridge by William Maher , Esq , County Coroner , when the following verdict was returned •"— " That said infant ehil < l was found divnvnod in ft dike near Goresbridge , < m the 22 d ' mutant , tb'd up with stone in a linen bag , and we find a verdict of wilful murder ngainst Jam ? 8 and Margaret Murphy . "

Parker's ,. on the 16 th of August , had a piece of the pie made of the berries of the atrooa belladonna given to him ; on his return home he became very ill , and eventually he was taken to the hospital , where ho died the following evening at six o ' clock .

The witnesses were then bound over to appear at the next sessions of the Central Criminal Court .
Desperate Attempt at Suicide in a Brotiiri ,. — On Saturday morning , about half-past three o ' clock , a most desperate attempt at suicide took place in Angel Court , Strand , under the following circumstances : —It appeared that several girls who get their living by prostitution , reside in the same house . One of these having been engaged by a pentfeman . who , by some dexterity , managed to leave tlie brothel without settling the demand made upon him , was accused by her companions of purloining the money supposed to have been given her . upon which she took up <•> knife and having inflicted a severe wound in der throat tore the flesh with her fingers . Sot a moment was lost in procuring medical aid , but such was the dangerous nature of the injuries , that it was found necessary to convey the wretched sufferer to King ' s College Hospital . Her recovery is very oubtful .
Determined Attempt at Suicide . —On Wednesday morning , between eight and nine o ' clock , a determined attempt at suicide was made by a respectable young woman , named Maria Blake , aged 10 . and residing with her friends in the Vauxhnll Brulgoroad . It appears that for some time past she had linen receiving the attentions of a young man t-i whom she was ' muck attached , but on Sunday last she niR'le the unfortunate discovery that ho had nruved inconstant . On tlie same evening she waa
found by her brother suspended by the neck from the bed-rail , and it was with great diflicuHy that she was restored to animation . On recovering herself she expressed her determination to renew the attempt , and she was strictly watched . Availing herself of a favourable opportunity , the resolute woman left her home ami proceeded to the river side , at Thames Bank , where she instanly plunged into the water , ami would have been drowned had it m t been for tin ; exertions of a labouring man twined Jackson . The unfortunate woman has bnen placed under

Feather stone , ' Esq ., of Milton House , near Rayborough , and a party of poachers . It appears that information had been conveyed to the keepers that two men beloncins ; to the neighbourhood , well-known poachers , intended trying certain open lands abounding with partridges , with a description of net generally used upon such occasions , and the keepers were accordin .-ly on the look out . At a late hour , five men made their appearance and commenced operations ,
hue wore speedily interrupted by the keepers , when a tight took place . Neither party carried firearms , but it desperate struggle was maintained with stout sticks , during which one of the keepers was struck ' down senseless by a blow on the head , and his companions , iimling the poachers too much for tn . om , wore obliged to retreat . Tlie poachers having decamped , the keepers returned to the spot where the affray took place , and carried oft ' their wounded companion " . On examination the man ' s skull was found to be dangerously fractured . Ou the followino morning two of the gang , who had been recoguised by the keepers , wcro taken into custody .

The MvsTKHiotra and Horrible Affair at Chatham . —This case was brought before the magistrates of Rochester , on Friday , by Mr . Steddy , the surgeon , at Chatham , who produced four small pil ! -boxes and a small paper packet , _ containing the ashes rescued bv Richardson from his ookc-oven on Monday , and supposed to be those of a new-born infant . Mr . Steddy stated that he had examined those substances , and found them to consist of pieces of coke and coals , and pieces of stockings or knitted substances liko stockings—a small portion of which he took to be net , such as babies' caps were made of . There were two descriptions of knitted substances in these ashes , one finer , the other coarser ; also another piece of fabric , which he examined through a microscope ,
and found it to be twill ; likewise a substance resembling powdered bones , the organisation of which had been entirely destroyed by the great heat of the furnace . He should be led to suppose , from the fabrics he had examined , the substance was the ashes of a child . But , upon being questioned by one of tha magistrates , he sajd he was not quite eure they were the ashes of human bones . Thus far , the circum . stances of the case still remain a mystery . The magistrates , however , gave strict directions to tho officer !) to be vigilant in their endeavours to trace it out , ifp- ' .-ssible . Cbim . Con . is France . —A crirn . con . cause , a rarity in France , was on Thursday brought before the Tribunal of Correctional Police . The plaintiff was a M . Da verge , and the defendants were Madame
Daverge and her paramour , M . Frederick ViJleret . It appeared from the evidence that M . and Mme . Daverge were married in 1830 , and at first lived in perfect harmony , neither having any property , la 833 Mme . Daverge came into possession of a legacy of 12 , 000 francs . With this money , M . Daverge , unfortunately for himself and for his wife , entered into business at Nantes ; but at the end of three years he had not only lost the 12 , 000 francs but having incurred debts which he conkl not pay , was declared bankrupt . Knowing tha he was unable to exhibit a fair balance sheet to his creditors , he fled to Belgium , but was brought back , under the extradition treaty as a fraudulent bankrupt , anil imprisoned at Valencennes . Ilure his wife joined him , and allowed her attachment by contriving and aitiiYg his escape , ar . d then remaining to meet the consequences . After some time arrangements were made with the
creditors , and in 1843 he returned to his own country , and was restored to his civil rights . In the course of this year the husband and wife quarrelled , the latter having reproached her companion in strong terms with desertion , leaving her for whole days and night 3 alone . A scparatioa took place , Davcrgu angaging ' to allow his wife the raoderate sum of 600 francs ayear towards her maintenance . He then went to seik his living in Germany , During his absence Madame Daverge entered the service of M . Villeret as his housekeeper , and an illicit intercourse took place betweed them , and gave grounds for the present proceedings , All the above circumstancea having been proved , the Court , sentenced Madame Daverge to bs iniprisonsd for eight months , and M . Villeret Tor four months , condemning him also to pay a fine of 100 frans , and 500 francs to Daverge by way of damages .
The Coxvict Smith . —The wretched convict , John Smith , was visited on Saturday by Mr . Aldetman Sidney , and other civic functionaries , who are adopting strenuou 3 measures to obtain a commutation of his sentence . He is confined in the same cell where Blakesley , Courvoisier , and Greenacre spent their last days . Some members of his family have been permitted to see him , but any detailed representation of what transpired must be manifestly incorrect , as the prison authorities maintain the most guarded silence , in obedience to the order of the late Secretary of State . It may be added , however , that the convict perseveres in his statement that he was goaded to commit the crime bv the deceased . Throughout Saturday three petitions were kins at
the Guildii . nl ) Coffee-house for signature , and up to four hundred names appended to them , and amongst them the respected signatures of Mr . Samuel Gurney , the Quaker ; Messrs . Swaine , Booth , and Co ., the distillers ; and a number of eminent merchants . The document will be predated in three or Jour days to the Home Secretary by Alderman Sidney , the Sheriffs , and other municipal officers . The most sanguine expectations are entertained that the wretched man's life will be spared , although no hope is held out to him . It is stated that the Premier , as one of the representatives of the City of London ! and the other members , will be solicited to add the weight of their influence to the endeavour to obtain a commutation of the sentence .
riiK Late Death riiROL-cH Flogci . yg at Uouxai . ow Barhacks . —The public generally will be gratified to learn that the privates of the 7 th , or Queen'a Own Hussars , have subscribed amongst themselves to erect a stone over the grave in lleston Churchyard , in which the remains of their latt comrade , t ') e last victim of military flogging , Frederick John White , are deposited , which will , it is to be honed , be kept up in after ages as a memento . of the brutalizing system adopted to British soldiers in the midd'e of the nineteenth centuary . The inscription engraved on it is , we understand , as follows : — "Sacred to the memory of Frederick John White , a private in the Ttft , or Queen ' s Own Hussars , who
< 1 iedJ uly 11 , 1 S 4 C , aged 27 years . This stone has been erected by his comrades , as a testimonial o f their deep commiseration of his fate , and out of respect to his memory , " It is believed that the erection of the above simple expression of tiie feelings of the privates on the subject of military torture wfll be permitted by the officers of tho regiment , although up to Saturday afternoon a final answer had not been received . The subscription to buy off Mathewson . and others of the privates who gave evidence at the inquest is still progressing , and the projectors of it anticipate success . It is also rumoured that the regiment will shortly be removed from llounslow Barracks , but by what other regiment it will be succeeded has not bet > n mentioned .
NlELASCnOlT ACCIDKNTDY A ThRESHING MaCHI . VE . On Saturday last a serious accident occurred at the farm of Mr . Damer , at Farnham Royal , near Slough , Bucks , by which the life of a youth is placed in imminent danger . It appears that a lad . aged about 14 years , was employed in the barn driving two horses , which propelled the machine , and incautiously approached too near to the spindle , when the bottom of histrowserj was caught in the machinery , and by its circumgyration he was whirled round until his cries brought the man who was attending the machine to the spot , and who instantly stopped the horses and extricated the lad . Surgical assistance was procured as soon as possible , when it was ascertained that his left leg was broken , left knee crushed , and his right thigh fractured a little below the hip joint . The unfortunate lad lies in a very precarious state .

There appeared no blame attributable to the driver ; tho Jury , therefore , returned a verdict of" Accidental Death . "

Owing to the combustible * nature of the goods , very few minutes elapsed before the flumes had obtained , the complete possession of the shop and its contents . The upi-er portion of the building was occupied by numerous families , and tho smolto being so dense , the parties had great difficulty in effecting a safo retreat from the piace . As it was , three or four of them were taken from the top of the house by a sergeant of the City police . An abundant stream of water being obtained , thelire engines were set to work , but before they could be got into operation , the fire had extended to the * tea and grocery warehouse in the occupation of Mr . onatlian Jones .

At three o ' clock the fire ( which was confined to the range ol' building 3 in which it originated ) was completely extinguished . The amount of property destroyed must , be great ;
