three or £ wir , ; . aofc one of them will attend , for the man is poor , aud the night is late : the woman accordingly dies * The jury express their " regrei . " A Few ^ rleans paper speaks thus of an emigrant ship recently arrived out there from Liverpool ;—" Tho entire shi p ' s company , with the exception of the captain , mate , and carpenter , are charged with the most fiendish outrage upon the female passengers during the passage . What renders the case more aggravating ^ is the charge made by the poor victims that these Brutalities were perfectly well known to tlie officers , who made no efforts to restrain their brutish crevr . " A poor- woman , residing at 2 , Bailey-court ( some-¦ where near Co vent Garden ) , was going to hed late last Saturday night , when her doox was hanged open , and her apartment was invaded by a drunken Irishman . She remonstrated , and he threw her out of the window ! She is not expected to recover the effects of the fall—eighteen feet .
Headers will remember the case of the girl at Little Tonington , who was found murdered , having been violated , in a wood . The murderer , a married man , has been tried this week at Exeter Assizes , found guilty , and sentenced to death . It appears that he had never seen the girl before the day of the murder . ; - —* the deed was the result of sudden and bratal last . Here , is a terrible case , illustrating the influence of the law of divorce cm deserted women : — " Jane ,. Redfoxd , a . poorly clad miserable-looking woman ,, was chaiged ( at Westminister ) with intermarrying with . John Flynn , her husband being then and now alive . William Gowan , 39 B , stated that the prisoner was given into his
custody that morning upon the charge by her second husband , when she admitted that she had been recently married to him .. The accused said that it was quite true . Chat she had been , married to bath the men , hut her first husband deserted her in 1847 j leaving her in the greatest poverty and distress . She heard no tidings of him for seven years , and thought he was dead . When she became acquainted with Flyjm she told him every circumstance connected with her history , and he then-married her . < Xn Monday evening he came home , struck her , and turned her out of doors , and that morning got up the present charge against her , and produced ier former husband . Prisoner was remanded . At Bow-street a" labourer" has been sentenced to six months * imprisonment for brutality ( kicking ) to his wife ; and the magistrate said : —
" It would be quite impossible to carry out the provisions of the now act for the protection of women with any useful result , unless the parish authorities were willing to cooperate with the magistrates and assist the poor women who were deprived of their usual , support . It was no rise to talk about taking them iato the workhouse . The women had a natural repugnance to go there 5 some trifle in the way of out-rellef ought to be granted . " The Liverpool eharehroker , who stood charged with stealing a lOQOl . bill of exchange , has been tried and acquitted—for no other reason , apparently , than that Ms counsel , Mr . John Aspinall , was eloquent . He failed altogether on the trial to account for the bill coming into his possession .
41 On liis behalf it was stated that he had received the bill from , a Mr . Harris , wham lie had known occasionally doing business on the Exchange , but whom he had not sinfce scon , nor could he give any information to lead to his discovery . " At Guildhall , ojo . "Wednesday , an extraordinary case came on ' .-. —arevelation of a religion not included in Horace Manu ' a Ceoisua Summary .

Notes On The Wail Tite.Be Is This.Week.L...
NOTES ON THE WAIL TitE . BE is this . week . li . ttle or no alteration in the attitude of . the war-Mazier is where he was : the 3 fren « h troops , with the additional English ships , slowly joining him , and the destination supposed to be Aland Isles ( Bomarsund to be bombarded ) , or , if " negotiations" should go wrong , the Gulf of Dantzic . General BaTaguay d'Hilliers had readied Copenhagen , furious at news ! he got there that a second division of troops was to be sent out ^ and that D'Hilliers was not to be chief in command . The English army remains at or about Varnatheir destination supposed to be the Crimea . The . fleets in the Black Sea are cruising . Omar Pasha ' s army continues to obtain small successes ; and news in yesterday ' s levies , being a -despatch communicated by their Vienna correspondent , dated Heroiannstadt , is to this effect : — " The Eussians consider the mouth of the Danube no longer tenable . lt Prince Gortschakoff , having convinced himself that Giargeyo and the Danubian islands opposite are occupied b y a Turkish detachment , and not by the Balkan army , is withdrawing a great part of his army to Bucharest . " It is hellev « d that the right and left wing of the Russian army are retreating to the Sereth line of operations . " This indicates a retreat ;; but the news is at variance witfli the preceding and continuous accounts of the . Tveek—that the Russians were operating as if : witbt the resolute intention of holding 'Wallachia—Omar Pasha accordingly halting—< and waiting on the English and Austrians , both of whom remain still . ; ¦ -- — - ., ¦ ¦ ¦ ... . - . v : ; . A party of officers from the English ships were boating about Sulina ( mouth of the Danube ) , calculating that the defeated Russians had left the place , when a fire was suddenly opened on them from a ditelay covert of reeds , and , unhappil y . Captain racier , of the [ Firebrand , when le ' aping on shore to head bis friends to the assault , was shot through the heaprt . He was a gallant officer , of that splendid famdly which may be said to belong to the navy , and he is deeply regretted . He was buried ( at Constantinople ) with solemn naval honours—French assisting , and Turks staring . There has been a slight affair at Odessa . " Odessa , July 14 . u Yesterday three steamers arrived and destroyed some works erected" here-. The allies fired some thousand shots . TJie Russians ( as usual ) lost one man . "
A letter from Kars says : — " The . emissaries sent to Schamyl have returned . They state that the Circassian chief is keeping considerable forces ia check . He has seized several places situated in the mountain range between Derbent and Kouba . Many Mussulman deserters come over ; to the Turkish camp . It is declared that the Russian Government has sent word to its generals in Asia , that there was no possibility of sending them any reinforcements , and that they must keep on the defensive . " ILord Cardigan had returned to the English camp near Varna from his long reconnaissance along the blanks of the Danube witih his Light Dragoons . They were out seventeen days , and having no tents had bivouacked — the first taste of war ' s hardships . Once they were witlun sight of the Russians , " the other bank of the river ; but they were only staxed at .
The Times Vienna Letter Of The 22 Nd Say...
The Times Vienna letter of the 22 nd say « : — " Yesterday morning Lieutenant-Colonel Mantouffel conforrod with Count Buol , and an liour later he had an audidtence—tho second since his arrival here—of his Majesty . As lias already been stated , tho Prussian Envoy failed during his first interview to produce any cunngo in the opinions of tho Emperor ; and report says that ho mut with no greater nuccess yesterday . It is further related that M . dp JMuntctiiftil yesterday morning xecoived a telegraphic message from Berlin , which he was charged to communicate
without delay to this Government , and it is probable that such really wus the caso , as a Cabinet Council , at which hia M . tyG » ty presided , was held in the evening . N " o particulars of what occuitrea huve transpired , but persons worthy of rcpnlidcncto huvotihis morning assured mo tliut tho mission of Prince ¦ Govtttchnkofl ' , although indirectly supported by Pruau »« , ' has completely failed . ' " In a few days we . may -expect the Gorman IWers to pronounce decisively . Aaiatiia , certainly , canuot much longer delay action .
The King of tho Sandwich Islands has declared himself neutral in tho wnr between England and lfcussia ! That souada very ridiculous ; but it nppcara that his Mujos . ty was obliged to " prononnco" —both Russian and English ships of war frequenting hia pleasant harbours . A writer in tho Press ( tlio " authoritative Tory writer" we Ixavo before alluded to ) , mentions this as IkfJlGt ;—" Xho Olmnlipv Buneon , ono of tho viotiinB of our por-( kdiouti vncillutlo . 11 , wrote mccntly , in n letter tv t \ fiionU , auj in tho bittornefla . of bin heart , tlwt , thougli tho ttuHuimia wore hated iu Qormuuy , no living nuui would tru » t Englctml .

Au Army Police ( ambulance corps ) is being selected from the metropolitan police ( London ) , and will be sent oui to the Kast to serve in keeping order and regulations in the camp . They are to be mounted : pay 5 s . 6 d . a day with rations . 2 few sets of paragraphs are this week flying' about respecting the Turkish loan : — " MM . Diack and Durand , merchants at Constantinople , who are charged -with the negotiation of the Turkish loan , are now in Paris , and have placed themselves in communication with the Credit Mohilier and M . Mire ' s for that object . It does not appear , however , that these negotiations have as yet led to any definitive result . " On the same subject the writer of the Daily News city article , 6 ays : —
" Tho proposed Turkish loan engaged some conversation in the Stock Exchange to-day , in tlie absence of more exciting matter , the point more immediately under discussion being as to whether the loan would float at 75 per cent , in a 5 " per cent , stock , these being terms to which it was rumoured the parties engaged in the operation on the part of the Porte might probably be- induced to accede . We cannot help thinking , however , that such a course as this would be calculated rather to injure than benefit the credit of the Turkish Government , as a disposition will be generated to avoid nil participation in a . security which , after being hawked about in so many quarters , is offered on terms so low . If , as proves to be the case , the Turkish commissioners are equally unable to place the loan at a fair price , or to procure a guarantee for the interest and sinking fund from Great Britain and France , the best plan will surely be for them to write to Constantinople for fresh iEslructions . "
K Continental Notes. The Austrian Loan I...
K CONTINENTAL NOTES . The Austrian loan is . being largely subscribed for . The Emperor stands at the head of the list for 1 , 200 , 000 florins —wliich he will lend to himself . The Esterhazys are down for large sums . l ! be bureaucracy is prompt : no one dare refuse . The first portion of the Mediterranean submarine telegraph from Spezzia , in Piedmont , to Cape Corsa , in Corsica , a distance of about 100 miles , has been successfully laid down . The Emperor and Empress of the French are enjoying th « rhselves at Biaritz ; his Majesty , however , devotes much of his time to his avocations . Nor were these interrupted during his journey ; a saloon carriage was fitted up for him as a bureau , in which he transacted business to his journey's end . His Ministers meet in council here every second day during his absence . The road from Mont de JMerson to Bayonne , by which the Emperor and Empress parsed , bad "been ornamented with evergreens and strewed with flowers bthe inhabitants of the neihbo towns and
y guring villages . All of them came out dressed in their holiday clothes . It is said that the Emperor means to form an " army of observation 11 ( on Spain ) at Bayonno . We have given , in the Spanish news , the fucfc that JVL 3 : ilamancu ' s house was sucked , and his furniture thrown into the street and burned or smashed ; . unfortunately , we may add , tha mob also destroyed liis magnificent collection of pictures—one of the finest in Madrid , and of especial Spanish value . Eakthqu-vkk . —There has been an earthquake at Bareges ([ France ) . It worked several miracles . " Three shocks , at intervals of about five minutes , shook the whole cliain of the Pyrenees , which seemed for an instant ready to toyple down . Tho streets were speodily crowded with sick instantaneously restored to health , Paralytic persons , who hud comes to the waters to recover the elasticity of their limbs , ran as hurd as if nothing was the matter with them . Several residents hastened to leave the town , carrying a fow necessaries on their backs . "
