Eatal Accident at Wisas . —A fatal accident occurred on Monday morning last at the factory of Messrs . Eckersley and Sons , Wigan , to a young mechanic named Thomas Bramley , a # ed 23 . The deceased , we are informed , was examining a glauer Can instrument for polishing iron , &c ., ) which had been recently erected j and whilst doing so , the segment of the glazer , which at the time was making about 700 revolutions per minute , burst asunder with tremendous force , catching the deceased about the face , first throwing him to the top and then to the opposite part of the room with inconceivable violence , whereby the poor fellow ' s head was almost separated from his body . He survived the event but a few minutes .
Liverpool Assizes . —At these assizes , on Monday last , before Lord Denman , a young woman , named Elizabeth Russell , was charged with the wilful murder of her illegitimate child . The body of the child was found in the privy . The Jury returned a verdict oi "not guilty of murder , but guilty of having concealed the birth of the child under aggravated circumstances . " On the same day , Francis Bradley , an Irishman , was charged with the wilful murder of his wife , at Manchester , by administering arsenic . The prisoner and his wife occupied a room in the
hous * of John Lee , in Goolding-ttreet , Manchester , for about twelre months previous to the occurrence and about twelve o'clock in the night of the ISHhot March , the deceased being in | t , ood health and spirits , the prisoner administered to her a powder in some beer—she drank it—and in about half an hour became ill 1 vomiting , purging , and other symptoms ensued , and she continued to get worse until the Wednesday following , when she died at Infirmary . The Jury found the prisoner guilty , and he was sentenced to be hanged .
Murdes in Liverpool— On Saturday last , an inquisition was taken before the deputy coroner , en view of the body of Catherine Carney , aged 34 . Four witnesses were examined , but theevidence of Superintendent Leverett and the house surgeon at the Infirmary , will give all the material circumstances of the case . The former gentleman stated , that on Monday week , he went , by direction of the Commissioner ot Police , to the Infirmary , to see the deceased . She declared her impression that she could not recoter . She toid witness , in the presence of Mr . Brandreth , that at five o ' clock on the morning of the 5 th of July , she was in the street , not far from St . James ' s Church , when two men accosted her , laid their hand 9 on her shoulders , and called her an Irish b . They went away , but returned shortly after , and knocked her down , beat and kicked her violently
while she lay on the ground , saying , "We'll finish you , you old Orange b . " She called loudly for a police-officer , and at length one came to her , but she could remember nothing fmther . She did not know the two men , and could not tell whether they were English or Irish . She said she belonged to the parish of Donegal , in Ireland . Mr . Thomas Brandreth , house surgeon at the Infirmary , stated , that on the 14 ih of July , the deceased was brought \ u . She was extremely feeble from loss of blood . He examined her , and found that she had a lacerated wound , about two inches long , in a delicate part of her person . The wound sloughed , and mortification ensued , which ended in death . Tne wound had , probably , been occasioned by a kick . The jury returned a Terdict of wilful murder against some person or persons unknown .
Daring Bcsglakt at MTEfcscot'GH . —About halfpast one o cloek on Tuesday morning last , at the hou ^ e of Mr . John Wilding , yeoman , of Myerscough , on the bank of the Lancaster Canal , near this town , a loud crash was heard below stairs , by the housekeeper , whe immediately called her master and his brother , those being the only inmates , except a youth , her master ' s son . On going down stairs they were met by three men armed with bludgeons , by whom the two Wildings were instantly knocked down and terribly beaten . Two of the gang then seized the housekeeper , and insisted on being shown w ;> ere the money and valuables were kept , but refosed to have any light ; the other man keeping gnard over J . Wilding and his brother below . After purloining the drawers , &c . in two rooms , the villains demanded the housekeeper ' s purse also . She led them to her bed room , aud taking her pur e
out of a box , held it up towards the window before them : both men seeing it made a snatch to secure the prize , in doing which , they for a moment let go their hold ^ of her , when she slipped away down stairs , and ran naked to the house of Mr . Threlfall , the High Constable , nearly a quarter of a mile oiF , to procure assistance . Mr . Threlfall and one of his men were in a few minutes in the midst of the affray which followed , and which ended in the capture 01 the thieves on the spot . The whole of the men are supposed to belong to a most desperate tang , who have committed many daring outrages in this neighbourhood lately , and to whom locks and bolts are of noavail . The men engaged in thisrobbery werearmed with bludgeons—two of them formed of a cart shaft broken in two . Their names are James Ray , John Baldwin , and Thomas Crook . They were all residents in Preston . —Preston Chronicle of Saturday .
Ladt Hewley s Chabitt —On Friday , the House of Lords gave their final judgment on the much-litigated case of Lady Hewley's Charities . Lady Hewley , a zealous and charitable Presby terian . by "her will of 1704 , and a subsequent deed of 1707 , appropriated a large sum of money ( now , we believe , yielding nearly £ 3 , 080 a-year ) to CbTta'D charitable uses , of which the principal were— ^ "To assist poor aud godly preachers for the time being of Chi ' ist ' s Holy Gospel . —To assist poor and godly widows of the same description of persons . —To encourage and promote the preaching of Christ ' s Hely Gospel in poor districts and places . —To assist in the education of young persons intended for the ministry of Christ ' s Holy Gospel . —To assist poor and godly
persons in distress . And particularly to found an almshouse for the maintenance of ten poor persons , conditioning— "That every alms-body be one that can repeat by heart the Lord's Prayer , Creed , Ten Commandments , and Mr . Edward Bowie ' s Catechism . — That the alms-people duly repair to some religious assemWy of the Protestant religion , " Aud for the due execution of these purposes Bhe appointed seven Presbyterian friends trustees . Lady Hewley did not , however , appropriate her request to any body or succession of men to follow their fate or opinions , but merely directed that it should be applied to the assistance of " godly , " which seems to have been hitbeno assumed to be equivalent to" dissenting " preachers of the gospel ; and on the poorer objects of her charity she has , in effect , imposed
subscription to the catechism drawn up by Mr . Bowles , a personal friend of her own in her earlier life . The case has been twice before tried ; judgment was given both by the Vice-Chancellor and Lord Lyndhurst in favour of the Independent claim , which has now been affirmed on appeal by the House of Lords , with the sanction of Lords Cottenham and Brougham , and the authority of six out of seven Judges to whom the question had been referred ; the exception being Mr . Justice Maule , and the grounds of their decision being principally , that Unitarians did not exist a 3 a body at the time the gift was conferred ; that they would not at that or any previous time have been considered by the Church or DiSsentrrs to be preachers of the " Holy Gospel of Christ . "
Suspected Murdee and Parbicide . —A most revoking and atrocious case of parricide or homicide took place late on Saturday night , within three miles of this city . It appears that a family of three individuals—namely , James Patersoa , c&Tter at Haile 3 Quarry , Robert Paterson , his bod , and Janet Paterson , the wife of James , ai . d mother of Robert , left Edinburgh for their home about Pleven o'clook , and that they were , particularly the female , considerably intoxicated . When near Slateford toil , the female , it appears , had been either unable to proceed , or some quarrel had ensued among them ; but it is stated by one or more persons who came up to them , that Robert Paterson , the son , dragged his mother for some distance along the road , kicking her
repeatedly with his feet , and using language in reference to her which we should be afraid to repeat The father , it appears , was a passive spectator of this brutal and unnatural conduct . Two men , who had come up to the party , found the woman lying dead , aud assisted to convey her to the toll-house . They afterwards returned to Edinburgh , and gave information to the police , when Borne officers were despatched , who took the two male Patersons i nto custody at their house , both seemingly unconscious of , or indifferent about , the dreadful event . Mr . Tait , surgeon of police , -went out to Hailes about four o ' clock yesterday morning , examined the body of the deceased , and gave a summary report . The case is now undergoing judicial investigation . —Caledonian Mercury .
The Stafford Victims
THE STAFFORD VICTIMS
TO THE CHARTISTS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM . BROTHER CHARTISTS , —We the Delegates publicly appointed by our respective localities , to see to the eating and drinking business of the victims in Stafford Gaol , and also their wives and families , beg to inform you that the Victims' Fund is in a very low state , bo much so , that we have been obliged to relinquish sapport of the victims , and thair families receive a poor miserable pittance . ¦' = .- ¦ ' Brethren , it is for yon to aay whether the victims , with their wives and families should pine in want and misery . Remember their sufferings for our cause , and the district from whence they are taken is unable to lend much assistance , as the neighbourhood is composed almost exclusively of colliers ¦ wbo are on strike—30 , 000 of them having left the district to subsist Jipon casual charity .
Brethren , the Star has recommended 6 d . from each locality , which sum would give the victims something te eat , and place their families in comparative comfort Brethren , the victims have a claim upon you ; will you respond ? Were you placed in their condition , would you not thinfc it hard to be left to starve ? How lon « you may be at liberty God only knows . AROUSE then , AROUSE ! AWAKE to ENERGY ! and let the captiveB Bee that you have hearts to feel and sympathise "with those who are sufieri » g for our emancipation . ¦ ¦ ¦
Instant relief is requisite . The authorities at Stafford will not allow any food brought for the victims unless we can support them altogether . " Will you then allow Mason and his brave comrades to starve upon bread and water ? We anticipate that you will respond , and that immediately . Signed by order of the Dfleuates , A . FUSSELL , Chairman . P . S . All monies to be sent to Mr . Cook , Dudley .

—^ TO THE EDITOB OF TUB NOHTHERN STAR . Sib , —I write to inform you that all round the villages aud places in and about Wolverhampton is quiet , though-we have got fresh reinforcements of military . The colliers are suffering much ; they are very quiet and very orderly . Several colliers have passed through guarded by dragoons from Brierly Hill and Dudley way . . . - . ¦ ¦ . - . ¦ : '¦ - ¦ ¦'¦¦ ¦ ., Coal is very scarce and dear , £ 1 to £ 1 4 s . per ton . Oar brave colliers - wiu yet triumph , and ere ten days shall have passed , the men will have their four shillings . The magistrates have stopped them from begging , but a great many have gone out to harvest work , and they are drawing the money out of their clubs and helping each other as much as possible . Linney is doiug well and worting hard at Bilston and its localities : but he labours too much for his health .
The insertion of the following by the request of the Wolverhampton Council and friends will greatly oblige : — " It is with regret that we inform our Chartist friends that Mr . H . Candy , who , since his return to . Wolverhampton , which is nearly four months , has zealously persevered in the cause , and night after night , after thu labour and toil of bis work , he has delivered lectures on each Sunday , generally three times . Since poor Mason ' s incarceration , he has laboured more ardeuOy . His meetings of late hava been from four
to six thousand people , and at times mote , He has been mainly instrumental in preserving the peace of the tewn of Wolverhampton ; the colliers will almost do auything for him . What ' s the result ? that some of the most influential shopkeepers are using means to get his employer to discbarge him ; and from his great exertions—having delivered upwards of sixty lectures ^—he ia now unfit for work , for be is suffering severely from a violent vomiting of blood , which at first was thought the rupture of a vessel . It has produced fever and iciUmation of the lungs . He is required to take great care .
" Now Candy belongs to no club ; his wife has been lying ill in the Potteries , little chance , if ever she recovers ; and we believe a more honeat , or straightforward Chartist cannot be be found . Four years and better he has been battling in the cause of freedom . " We wish you to make an appeal in his behalf , for If he goes to a bastlle it will break his heart , therefore we sincerely hope every true Chartist will contribute & mite , so that we may get him round again , We believe ha j $ ave s&tiaf&cuon while in the Yorkshire and other di « tricts , therefore , dear Sir , we trust you will do your best . Yours , respectfully , J . WiLCOX , Secretary . WoWerhampton , Wednesday .

TO THE CHARTISTS OK LEEDS , SHEFFIELD , BARNSLEY , AND THE WEST HIDING GENERALLY . Brothers , —It is with much reluctance that I again have to address you upon the monetary matters if the- West Riding . Yet a sense of duty , as the Secretary , urges me to call upon those towns which have not yet paid their qnota towards discharging the debts incurred by the late West Riding election , to do so immediately . It is a most shameful blot upon the West Ridine ,
that working men who have advanced money for the support of our glorious cause , should losa the game . It is only necessary that every town pay their equal share , and then justice will be done to all and every one . Hoping that this will be the means of effecting the desired end , I remain , Yours most sincerely , EDW . CLAtTOK , Sue . Huddersfield , August 8 th , 1842 .

He has been in several " lines of business ; " and always " succeeded" to the entire satisfaction of all he traded with ; ipaftioularly his creditors 1 Well , Nat ., was there ^ at the lecture .

he suffered his Whigism to get the better of his good equable temper ; and he frequently interrupted the lecturer with several exclamations of"liari " " damned blackguard , " and others equally eltgant . When the lecture was over , Bradley approached foaming Nat ., and , familiarly accoBting him , laid his hand , upon his shoulder . Nati immediately hit Bradley a slap in the face .

NOTTINGHAM-THE NOMINATION ^ : ¦ , Thursday , the 4 th of August , 1842 , will be a day for ever retnembered by all parties in Nottingham . The parties on both sides were early at work , but the thrashing Of Tuesday night put all hopes of success from violence out of the mind of the Tories . . "¦ ¦ ¦ ' . " ¦ - . ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ . . ¦ , ' " ¦ , . : , . : -. ;¦¦ ' ;• ' ¦ :. ¦ ¦;• . ¦ ' . - ;¦' . At half-past eight , the friends of Mr . Sturge , mustered at his committee room , and after entering into the necessary arrangements , marched in long procession to the Exchange , the place appointed for the nomination , and in their passage were loudly cheered . The place allotted to Mr . Walter and his backers , was but thinly occupied , aud the great portion was at the disposal of theMendaof Mr . Sturge , but was nevertheless found inadequate for their accommodation .
At ten o ' clock the spacious hall was opened , when a tremendous rush was made , and the whole speedily filled with the sons of labour . After the preliminaries were gone through , Mr . HiEbwitKE rose to propose Mr , Walter , and was received with a volley of groans . He did , his work briefly , having a poor subject to dilate upon / Mr . Chakwon , his former cblleague , seconded the nomination iix rather a better speech . The veteran Mr . Bean , who has alway 3 endeavoured to push the Btarid-S ! ill Whigs forward , hoT minated Mr . S : urge , in a braye and pithy speech , and . ¦ ' - .- ¦ ; ' ¦ : '¦ ¦ ' _ . .. " ¦ ^ .. ¦ ' ¦; ' : ¦; .. ' ¦ . . ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ,: ' , v . " Mr . Ckisi * seconded his nomination , in an admirable electioneering address , in which he neither spared the finality Whigs , the compromisers , or the Tories ; in fact , as a whole , his speech was a sound and a good one .
Mr . Sweet nominated , and Mr . Roberts , tailor , ( an Irishman ) seconded Mr . O'Connor . Mr . Smith Fowlee nominated , and . Mr . Minnett seconded Mr . Vincent . Mr . Waltbb was the first to present himself as a candidate , and was received in breathless silence ; in fact , nothing could surpass the excellent and quiet demeanour of the people ; his position beiu ^ altered , he spoke hesitaungly and without effect , aud in cencluuion , read an extract from a speech of Coroner Wtikley in aid of his pretensions ; but all would not do ; he retired amid groaus indescribable . Wiieii his opponent—Mr . Sturgepresented himself to the people , the scene was different . Never was there heard a more unanimous burst of enthusiastic applause . The Honourable
Member ( for he isnow M .. P . for Nottingham , ) spoke at considerable length , and with great force and effect . He analysed every point of . the Charter , point by point , nobly standing up for one and alt ; and when he came to the question of Annual Parliament ? , he said , * ' ¦ I am tilled vfith astomBhmeht at the weakness of the middling classes , who would make a question of a few months a bone of ^ contention between them and the people ; for all admit the necessity of change ; he declared himself for a separation of Church and State , for the disbanding of army and navy , for the proper application of the funded property , and for the whole Charter . He cut slyly , but deeply , into the policy of Walterj and the misrepresentations of the Times , and concluded an admirable address amid thunders of
applause . Mr . O'Connor next presented himself , and was hailed with cheering and waving of hats , that made the building ring a ^ ain . He spoke at coasiderable length , but as to disjoint his splendid address would be to destroy it , and as it is late in the week , I reserve a verbatim report for your next week ' s number ; suffice it to say , that it was admitted by all parties , Whig , Tory ^ and Chartist , to be " the most effective and powerful appeal ever made upon any similar occasion ; the cheering , laughing ,: and applause was incessant , and the hall trembled again , when in contraating his position with that of Mr . Walterv he said , What do I conteud for ? e ^ ual rights . What do you live upon 1 the advertisements of wet nurses , dry nurses , scullions , lackeys ,
footmen and chambermaids , and cooks out of place ; and again , towards the close he said , no doubt the Hon . Candidate would wish to know his fate ; if he shows me his hand I will tell him his fortune ; what not the / palm ; ( hen I will divine it from the fullness of those starting veins on the back of his hand , ( Immediate laughter followed this , but the most thrilling effect waa produced by Mr . O'Connor's retort upon the charge of physical force . ) What , said he , pointing his finger where it was said Mr . Stephens was cooped among the Tory crow , you talk of physical force , you who have been obliged to import the advocate of six inches of cold steel and six ounces of cold lead 1 There ' s a coalition of moral power and phjsical force ! Mr . O'Connor concluded amidst thunders of applause , when ¦ ¦ " .
Mr . Vincent presented himself , and spoke at considerable length and with great effect , and Upon the show of hands being taken , one of the most extraordinary scenes ever witnessed was presented , not a single solitary hand in the body of the Hall was raised ior Mr . Walter , aud wheu a show was demanded for Sturge every single hand , without exception was proudly raised on high . ' , About thirty varied coloured gloves were held up for Walter , and about four thousand ( each having held up both ) were raised for Sturge , which was followed by deafening and long-continued cheering . Nothing could equal , the brave and magnanimous conduct of the Chartists , while the Tories looked chopfallen and woe begone . Mr . Sturge . and his party then left the ExchangCj and Mr . Sturge addressed a vast multitude in the Market Place as member for Nottingham .
Now , I must return to last night's proceeding . A grand demonstration was held in the Market Place , and a demonstration in truth it was , A number of delegates attended , from Birmingham , Doncaster , and other places , to present addresses from various bodies of ; electors and dissenting bodies to Mr . Sturge and the electors of Nottingham . Several speakers addressed tho meeting , after which Mr . O'Connor and the Chartists formed a grand procession , and paraded the town to a late hour . No lambs are now to he seen ; the town is wholly in possession of the Chartists , and , consequently , peace is preserved .
M ' ri O'Connor and Alderman Frearson itire to be tried on Saturday , and thirty-six wounded men have already sworn that Mr . O'Connor wounded one and all . I have not time to give you further particulars at present , than merely to say that I shall send you the result of the contest tomorrow , in time for your third edition . The Chartists will havo gained the victory if it is gained , of which there now appears but little doubt . I send you a copy of the proceedings before the magistrates j as represented in a Tory Bill , whioh will enlighten your readers . To-night , then , is to be a grand gathering ; at which all the Chartist leaders will speak , and then all remain up until the election is over .
The bill which our correspondent has sent us is too Jong for insertion , nor is it even worth while to trouble our readers with the whole of its contents . The facis eworn to by the veracious Tories are comprised in a nut-shell , and are to the effect that Joseph Frearson and Feargus O'Connor had committed a riot and affray in the Market-place , on which warrants were applied for to apprehend them ; that Frearson , in order to encourage said riot and affray , shouted " Why do you not go to work , my lads , and take the waprgon from them V * that O'Connor , on said shout , jumped from the waggon , on which he had been standing , amongst the mob , knocked several people down , and kicked them
in a most violent manner while they were down ; and that , after all this he ( O'Connor ) took possession of the Tory waggon . The witnesses all declare i that they did nothing at all to cause any riot or affray , and laid all the blame on the Chartists . One man , a Mr . Hannay , swore that O'Connor had torn his coat off his back , whilst he was standing as a mere spectator . The crowning complaint , however , was made by a Joseph Poole , who declared that O'Cprinqr not only knocked him down for nothing , but stole his cap into the bargain , which he ( O'Connor ) had worn the whole evening after . Of course , the warrants vrere granted , and Saturday at noon , was appointed as the time of hearing .

Leeds Woollen Markbt $ , -- Although there is no improvement to be noticed in the demand for . manufactured goods , at the Cl 6 th Halls , there is , nevertheless , more business doing in the warehouses , particularly amongst the fiaer descriptions of goods , in which there is muob more doing . A better feeling exists amongst most classes of mercantile men , and we may hope , with the blessings of a productive harvest , and the effects of the new tariff , to see something like a steady progressive improvement .
YobkCobn Market , AoqcsT 6 th , —The release of a large quantity of Foreign Wheat , daring a continuance of very fine weather , continues to operate on the Corn trade ; and as the stocks of our farmers are reduced within the smallest compass , our millers have supplied themselves elsewhere , which they are able to do at prides far below what our farmers are willing to sell at here .

The prevalence of fine weather and large supplies have continued to press down the prices of Wheat : we note this article fully 9 d , per bushel cheaper than at the close of last week , at which decline , however , there appeared
at our market on Friday rather leas reluctance on the part of the dealers to purchase . A parcel or two were taken for Ireland .

Newcastle Cork Market , August 6 . ^ We have had another week of very favourable weather for ¦ the country , and the crops are making rapid progress ¦ towards maturity . Some few patches of Barley have been cut in favoured places , but the Wheat harvest will not be general in this neighbourhood for a fortnight to ceme . At oar market this morning we had for the season of the year a fair supply of Wheat from the country , which met a slow sale at a decline of 2 s . to 3 s . per quarter on the prices of this day Be ' nnigbt . The few transactions that took place in foreign Wheat were at a Bimilar reduction , but factors generally were unwilling to submit to the decline , and withheld their samples . Rye is nearly unsaleable . In Malt and Barley there is little doing : Peas met a retail demand , but Beana arenesrlected . ^ : : ^ "¦¦ ¦'''¦[¦ ¦ .
London Corn Exchange , Monday , Aug . 8—We had on Saturday frequent showers of rain , since which the weather has been , and stilt is , very fine for harvest operations , which are progressing rapidly and favourably in the home counties . The supply of old English Wheat at thi $ day's market was much shorter than for the last few weeks , but we must uotoa further decline of Is . to 23 . per qr . since this day se ' nnighti There were about 200 to 300 qrs . of new orjt sale from . Essex and SottTulk ( chiefly of Talavera sorts of very superior quality ) , whioh sold at from 60 s * to 689 . per qj % but noiie from Kent . There is a large supply of i oreign , and more enquiry existed in the early part of the morning , but buyers required a greater reduction than holders were
generally inclined to submit to , and therefore but fev / transactions took place , ohiefly in fresh Baltic impoTtatidris , at about 23 * less money t but the Mediterranean sorts were more depressed , at a greater abatement . There is very little quotation either in Barley , Malt , or Beans , if any thing the buyers had rather the turn in their favour . White Peas Is to 2 s cheaper ; maple and grey unaltered . The reported arrivals of Oats were mostly up to Friday ' s market . The chief part of the Irish is of low light qualities , which are even more difficult to sell without yielding in price . Foreign are more scarce , and the prica rather better than Monday last . We had a few speculative inquiries for Egyptian Beans , and there are buyers at 20 i per quarter , which price few holders are disposed to accept . ,
London Smithfield Cattlb Market , Apg . 8 . --There was landed from a steam-vessel , early this morning , nine Beasts from Rotterdam , for tO-day ' fi market , which excited no little attention from graziers and others . This stock was exactly of the same description as that to which we referred on Friday last , viz ., the old Lincoln breed , while they mre not in very fine condition . However , their size and symmetry could , with care and feeding , be greatly improved ^ The weight of the animals exhibited averaged about 27 stone per quarter , and were disposed of , at prices varying from £ 22 10 s . to £ 23 10 s . each . Those sold on Friday have , we understand *
turned , out remarkably well , they having proved tuU of fat .
