PricejintimatiEecthat thirty cases of soap were prepared for exportation ; in consequence of which Mr . William Moseley went to the premises fer the'purpose of inspection . The number of cases specified in the notice were pointed oat , in order that the official seal might be put upon them , but in going over the premises he discovered a frame that had been recently filled , to which his
attention had not been galled . This served to excite suspicion , and on closer examination he found ttoai one of the coppers had been lately " cleansed , " which left no doubt on the officer ' s mind that the soap in the frame bad been recently and rapidly prepared , in order to evado the payment- of duty . Under these circumstances Mr . Moseley se zed the whole of the soap , upwards of 7 , 0001 b ., which , together with other matter in various stagt-s of preparation , the frames , furnace , coppers . &c . were immediately transferred to Her Majesty ' s stores Frauds in thi - manufacture of soap lia-re become so frequent of late , that the Excise Commissioners hsve determined to enforce the law in all cases with the u' most rigour .
Sacrilege . — On Tuesday night or Wednesday morning week a daring robbery was committed at the Manchester Gollegiatu Church , by one or more persons , who have hitherto escaped detection . It appears that at about lialf-past five o ' clock on Wednesday morning the apparitor , whose duty it is to ring the bell at six o ' clock , was proceeding along the churchyard for the purpose of admitting some plumbers to the roof of tho building , when his attention was called to a window on the south side of the church , which bore marks of haviag been forcibly broken . Upon opening the doors he procured the attendance of several policemen , some of whom were stationed outside of the window , and others enteied the church . Upon unlocking the larg ; e door of the
Chapter house , adjoining that part of the building called Cheetbam ' 8 Chapel , they sound the whole of the cupboards unlocked , doors broken open , and all the gowns , &c . lying on the floor . The large silver 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 . The maces were locked in a box 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 locks and a padlock , in which were kept deeds , < fcc , was also broken open , and tho contents scattered about the floor . Tho thieves no doubt expected a rich : booty in the shape of communion plate ; but they were disappointed , none of the communion plate being kepi in the church except daring those days on which the Sacrament is administered . Considering the number of locks broken open , and tho great opposition which some of them wonid present to the robbers , they must have been in the building no less tnan from two to three hours . A reward has been offered for the conviction of any of the offenders . '
Mtstebious and Distressing Occurrence . —On Tuesday , the 13 ih instant , a sailor , named William Ross , belonging to Invergordon , was femid lying in a state of insensibility , at the road side , about a quarter of a mile south of Conon-bridge . He was conveyed to Mr . H . Mackenzie ' s ion , at Con ^ n , and medical aid having been rendered him by Mr . Donald Ross Dingwall , the poor fellow was so far recovered as to be able to state , that , as he was sitting on the parapet by the roadside , a man came past , smoking his pipe . Tho 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 . Thero he lay , apparently dead , until discovered . The parapet is about ten feot from the ground . When questioned by the procurator fiscal , he adhered to his statement as to the cause of his injury . The description he ga ? e of
this inhuman assailant is , that he led a black horse , with the bridle over his arm—wore a brown coat , with clear buttons , but to his knowledge ho had never seen him before . " The most prompt and energetic measures are in operation to discover the person ; but , ive are sorry to say , hitherto without effect . Next day , Ross was much worse , and &U efforts to prevent a fatal termination having proved unavailing , he expired about one o ' clock , p . m . Upon a post mortem cx&nnuation of the body by Doctors Ross and JVIaekid , it was ascertained that the young man ' s neck had been broken by the fall , and his head severely injured . On Thursday , the body was removed to trie house of his parents , at Invergordon . The deceased was a dutiful son , and boro an excellent character . He had just served out his apprenticeship , and was on bis way to Inverness , to procvre a situation , when he met with his untimely fate . —Edinburgh Witness .

Pioji ..- £ uhk Intklments . —We have more 'hanonre calkd the attention of our readers to the hurried manner in which interments are gone about in tho north , amongst , the poorer and middle classes tspeuially . The following case , which occurred a few days ago , in the churchyard of Wick , shows pretty dearly thai an interment of this bind had taken place , and that , too , while tho person was alive : — On the grave-digger removing part of tho lid of a coffin whilst digging a grave , he was struck with the strange manner' in whioh the bones and sknll were placed , and calling another aersonilo look at it .
they removed gently the whole top of the coffin , when it was distinctl y seen that the body appeared to be drawn du « n into the coffin , the arm bones stretched up over the head , and the latter turned on its side near to the thigh-bones . The chips and shaving ? , too , which ar % usually placed under or about the head , appeared to be all pushed down towards the kga . From inquiry , it tvas ascertained to ba the remains of a man who was buried about twenty years ago , and said toJhave died of a fainting fit , aud from tho attendant ccrcumstanres , no doubt is left in our mind tha . ' , ho was interred while in a state of syncope . —John O'Groal ' s Journal .
ExTBAORDiNiKV SciGiDK . —Mr . Higgs held an inquest on Saturday at the King ' s-Head , Enfield , on view of the body of Mr . Joseph Vaughan , many years in the commission of the peace fov tho county of Middiosex . It appeared from the evidence of severr . l of di-waml ' s domestics , that for some days past ho had appeared to be in a , remarkably gloomy and de ^ pondine ; : Btate of mind . Between eight and n ; no o'clock on' Thursday morning last , deceased ' s fa-wily was thrown into a . state of alarm by its being diseovtrod , on his not appearing ait , the breakfast fcablo as usual , that ! io had secretly quitted the hon « e . Tha roost painful suspicion being thus excited , search was in-. 's . nt ! y nude for deceased ia the neighbourhood of tho premise- ' , and he was almost
immediately found drowned in tho New River , tho water bt ing so clear t ' j&t thf > vsorp-je could plainly be seen lying at the bottom . The body was immediately got ashore , when Hwaa further discovered that deceased , to render hia fato qaito certain , had tied his legs together tightly with a rope , and had also coiled a piece of cord round his wrists with , an icon weight of nearly oftlb attauhod to it . It is believed that the loss of a vt-ry -largo sum of money by ppecnlation in business had preyed upon deceased ' s mind and caused him to commit this rabh act . It may also be added , that tho unfortunate gentleman ' s mother was deranged , aud that his brother committed self-destruction . The jury , after 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 were proparing for the removal of his managerie from the Green , some incident occurred which so Btartled one of the black Russian wolves , that he became restive and violent , suddenly broke his chain , and ran Out of the show . The appearance of such an unsocial creature at largo , of course excited no small commotion and terror amongst those who were still lingering at the exhibitions , booths , and stalls . On leavipgthe menagerie , the wolf ran down tho Green , andjmomentarily placed himself in one of the booths , from which ail other tenants speedily decamped . Ho then took his departure and made his way , amid screams and confusion , down the bazaar
proceeding from thence through Union-street and several other streets , returning down Hertford street and again towards the Green , going- at a Rharp pace up tho Warwick-road towards StmchaU . It waa now evident that there might be some difficulty in re-capturing this dangerous animal , which had so far evaded and tired down his pursuers ; and some more systematic plan , for tha purpose , became necessary . Accordingly , aii excellent wolf-dog was taken from the managerio for the 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 , the fugitive was rather lured than overtaken , and brought back to his cage . — Coventry Herald .

It appeared , that on Saturday afternoon , about half-past one o ' clock , he waa proceeding from Mr . G . H . Head ' s bank to the railway station , to meet his son , who he expected from Newcastle . When about half-way down ] Botohergate , the omnibus overtook him , and he waived to the driver to draw up until he ascended . The driver was in the act of doiag so , when Mr . Davis suddenly made towards tho
omnibus , and . in doing so , camo in contact with one of the wheels , which apparently knocked him down , his head earning in violent contact with the ground . He was got up instantly , aud placed in a chair ; but the Deople assembled , seeing that ho was eying , conveyed him into a neighbouring house , whore ho died in a few minutes . ; . The deceased , vre _ oUjdRrstand , has lately been subject to fits , and it is not improbable , that he took oho at tho time he approached the omnibus ; for an old man who observed him stated , that bo staggered like a drunkon man . It was difficult to say , from the evidence produced on the inquest ,
whether he wais injured by the omnibus to such an extent as to cause death ; or from the fall , which must havp produced severe concussion of the brain . Verdict , " Accidental death . " A few minutes after the melancholy accident , the deceased's son arrived from Newcastle , and on calling at Mr . Hargreave ' s the carrier ' s warehouse to forward hia luggage to Penrith , he was informed ^ of the awfully sudden death of his father . The jury sent a recommendation to Mr . Hamilton , at the Bush Inn , to replace the driver of tlio omnibus , who had been suspended in consequence of the accident , as no blame whatever attached to him .
FfiJGHTKUi , Catastrophe . —Yesterday ( Friday ) intelligence reaohwl this city that * an awful accident had occurrsd in the neighbourhood of Dankerton , whereby the lives of many iadiyidaals were sacrificed , while others who had rsoaped with life were lying in < a desperately hopeless Btate . The scene of the calamity ivas the roa ; I pit known as Bray ' s Down-pit , about Reven miles from Bath , aad three from Dunkcrton . From the evidence of Wm . Evans , it appeared that as engineer , he had boen putting some new works to the engine , and on the evening of the accident he had carefully examined it to see that all was right ; everything was in perfect order . Mr . Wait , one-of the proprietors of the works , was with Mm at the time ; and the engine
was then at work . He left at half-past five o ' clock , and about half-past cighi o ' clock he heard of the accident atthejpit . Ho went to see what was the matter . Saw the engineer , cud asked him . if he had put the plug in to keep the cirumpf the engine in gear ? He said he had . The witness then proceeded—I asked him where the plug was ? he said he did not know . I then asked if he had screwed up tho nut 1 be said he had nut . The plug being left out would have caused tiiis accident . Th 1 ' engineer had not been drinking . There is aplatu placed to run over the ; p ! ug to keep if in its place ; if not placod over , it might have been driven out of its place . John Berry man deposed—I am bailitf at Bray's-Down coalpit . ; Last evening , about right o ' clofk , I
gave the deceased their candlea and other | hi&gs . This was at the pit , just before they went down . They were drawn up forme to do so . AH appeared right , and I asked the eugiuerr if ail was righ * 1 11 b said , " Yes . " I stood by the pit till I thought tho men were down about twenty fathom ? , when I heard them cry out . 1 looked , and . saw the drum was running . The engineer was quito sober . All the rope fell down with the men . They fell about fifty fathoms . I sent four men dowu ttie pit to bring them up . There were five men killed on the tpiit , and one died about three hours after . Two more are lying in a most dangerous state . The enijine must have been in gear , or it could not have let tiown so far . ; Nothing of the kind has ever
happened at the pit before . This being the whole of the evidence , tho Jury , after a short deliberation , returned a verdict of" Accidental death . " It appears from the account giveu of the accident by Mr . Wait , the managing proprietor of the works , that it is the duiy of the engineer to place the engine " in gear ;" that is , to connect the drum-wheel with the flywheel by means of a plug provided ; for that purpose , and to secure which in its place there is aii iron plate and a nut . And in connexion with this part of the subject , it is stated that the engine was constructed by the Messrs . Acramans , of Bristol , and that it combines the latest improvements in copstruciion providing fur tho safety of the ' colliers ; it has been in work
about two yeans , and has hitherto given the moat perfect satisfaction . Tue men having attached themselves to the chain by means of a hook and a piece of rope forming a noose for the reception of one leg , they were lifted off the platform by the engine , with the view to its being removed from the mouth of the pit , and ; wove then let down ; but , after descending about 100 feet , the drum-wheel was observed to be ' revolving rapidly , baviDg by _ some unaccountable means become disconnected with the wheel which should have regulated their descent j and ia codsequeaoe of the frightful velocity with which they descended , the unforfcwate men -were dashed to pieces upon a projecting stage erected some few fathoms from the bottom of the pit . The names Job Richardson
of the poor sufferers are— , aged 30 , married , but ] no family 5 Richard Aylesbury , aged 23 , not married ; Jacob Richardson , aged 36 , who is married and a family of six children ; Aaron Dando , aged 28 i wjio is married , but without a family ; Thomas Aylesbury , aged 25 , who has only been married three months j and Jeremiah Filer , a youth aged 16 . [ The appearance of > he bodieB was not such as might have been expected from the horrible manner in which death had been occasioned , ' with the exception of Richard Aylesbury , the faces of the deceased presented no evidence of the frightful catastrophe iwhtch had suddenly hurried them into eternity ; their appearance being more that of parties who had died peaceably in their beds . — Bath Herald .

London Smithfield Cattle Market , Monda y , Jdne 26 . —Notwithstanding we have to report tha 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 dealers —but especially that of the latter , who purchased extensively for various localities—being toge , and the dead markets well cleared of their last week ' 3 arrivals , an evident improvement in the Beef fcradej and the prices were fully 2 d 8 [ bs higher than were those . noted on this day se ' nnh > htj while a clearance was effected without difficulty . As to the general quality orthe stoclffcere 1 o " -day , WenaveTo ^ Blervo that that of beasts exhibited an improvement ; indeed
there was a good number of exceedingly useful and well made up Ilerefords , Devons , Scots , &c , brought forward . The isheep , however , were not in first rato order , and we scarcely ever recollect to have seen so tew really prime old Downs in the pens aa was the case this morning . But few cases of epidemic were observed amongst the beasts , but that disease was very prevalent amongst all breeds of sheep . Tho receipts from Norfolk comprised aboafc 1 , 651 ) . Scots , homebreds , aad runts ; from Suffolk , Essex , and Cambridgeshire , 200 Scots ; from Lincolnshire , 90 short horns ; from Yorkshire , 200 beasts ; from the western and midland districts , 186 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 , bnt it was by no means so large as that on Monday last . The Mutton trade was fins , though not to-say brisk ; and the currencies rose quite 2 d per 8 lbs ; the best Downs selling freely at 4 s 4 d per 8 ! bs , at whioh figure nearly the whole found purchasers . The numbers of Lambs were fair , and they commanded a somewhat improved inquiry . Dowu qualities were 2 d per 81 bs higher , but in the value of other descriptionsno improvement took place . Calves were in moderate supply and steady demand , at a rise of 2 d per Slbe- 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 , Jewe 26 . — Having a very scanty show of Wheat this morning from ' Esbsex , Kent , and Suffolk , ar « d scarcely anything fre-h up from more recote counties , factors displayed a greater degree of firmness than at the close of last week ; the slight abatement of Friday was , consequently , recovered , and ihe business done was-at about the currency of this day se ' anigbt . We are- still without any country inquiry for free Foreign Wheat ; and the millers acting cautiously , the transactions were on quite a retail scale j holder ? , nevertheless , remained firm , and purchases could not have , been made below last Monday ' s quotations . Wheat in bond was neglected ; the recent amva la from abroad are being landed on importers' account . Flonr moved off somewhat bIowIj , but was certainly not cheaper . With Barley we were again very sparingly supplied : this grain excited some attention ,
and good distilling and grinding qualities were g nerally held Is per qr above the rates of this day week . Holders of Ala . lt likewise asked more money , and a fair amount ot business was done in the article . The fresh arrivals ot Oats were very small , as well from our own coast j ; iid Scotland as from Ireland- Factors consequently ins-isted on an advance of 6 d to Is per qr , and the dealers' stocks having become very li , necessitous Luyer .- > had to pay the enhancement . There wasnot much passing in either Beans or Peas ; the supplies b « ing however small of both these articles , previous terms were very firmly maintained . Liverpool Cattle Market , Monday , Jpne 26 * . —The supply of Cattle at market to-day has been much tn » same as Ia 3 t week , both wtyb TCSpect to number , j > riee ami quality . Beef 5 d tQ ()< i , MuttOtt 5 d to 5 }< l , Lamb 5 £ d to G ^ d per 1 b . Number of Cattle : —Beasts 919 , isheep and Lambs 8 , 549 .
Liverpool Corn Market , Monday , June 26 . — A fow cargoes of Wheat and Malt have arrived during the week from tho English coast , but the imports of Grain , &c . arc altogether moderate . Under the influence of continued fine weather the tra-do has been very dull ; tho sale ofafew paroels ot Wfcuat amongst the local dealers forms the principal business in that grain ; and we have to reduce our quotations by fully 2 d per bushel . Floor , too , has meS a languid demand , and has been offering on rather ; easier terms . For Oats wa have had very little inquiry , but , the eupply being small , previous rat « . 'S have been sustained . Oatmeal must be noted fully 6 d per load cheaper . No change in the value of Barley , Beans * or Peas .
Manchester Cobn Maekjst , Satubdat , Juke 24 . —The favourable weather , noticed in our Ia 3 t report of this day se / nnight , haB been continued throughout the week ; aud it appears by the accounts received froro 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 j and the imports of Flour thence and from Ireland are to a fair amount . Of Irish Oatmeal 4 , 368 loads are reported . There was very little inquiry for Wheat at our market this morning , and we reduce , oar quotations 2 d per 701 bs . Flour is ia but moderate request , and to effect sales of inferior or middling qualities rather lower rates were submitted to . 39 j per sack is an extreme quotation for choice Whites . Prime heavy Oats are a scarce article , and the value is fully supported . For Oatmeal the inquiry was on a very limited scale , and late rates barely maintained .
Richmond Corn Mahket , Satubdat , Jpns 24 . — We had a fair supply oi Wheat in our market to-day , but only thin of Oats . —Wheat from 6 s 3 d to 7 s 3 d . Oats ' 2 i 8 d to 3 s 4 d . Barley 3 > 8 d to 4 s . Beans 4 s to 4 a tid per bushel .
