      Eatal Accident at Wisa * . —A fatal accident occurred on Monday morning last at the factory of Messrs . Eckersley and Sons , Wigan , to a young mechanic named Thomas Bramley , aged 23 . The deceased , we are informed , was examining a glomer ( an instrument for polishing iron , &c ., ) which had been recently erected j and wbibt 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 Elizibeth 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 of " 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 twelve months previous ro the occurrence and about twelve o ' clock in the night of the 19 th of March , the deceased being in &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 $ 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 .

      JklORDEB in Liv £ Bpooi . —On Saturday last , an inquisition was taken before the deputy coroner , en view of ihe body of Catherine Carney , aged 34 . Four witnesses were examined . but the evidence of Superintendent Leverett and the house surgeon af 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 of Police , to the Infirmary , to see the deceased . She declared her impression that she could not reco » er . She told 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 hands 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 po 1 ice-officer , and at length one came to her , but she con ) d remember nothing further . She did not know the two men , and could not tell whether they were English or Irish . She said she belonged to" the pirish of Donegal , in Ireland . Mr . Thomas Brandreth , house surgeon at the Infirmary , stated , that on the 14 th of July , the deceased was brought in . She was extremely feeble from Ioaa of blood . He examined her , ard 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 verdict of wilful murder against some person or persons unknown .

      Daring Buhglart at Mterscoi : gh . —About halfpast one o ' cloek on Tuesday morning last , at the house of Mr . John Wilding , yeoman , of Myerscough , on the bank of the Lancaster Canal , near this town , a loud crash was heard below Staira , by the housekeeper , whe immediately called her master and his brother , those being the only inmates , except a youth , her master ' s eon . On going down stairs they were met by three men armed with bludgeons , by whom the two Wilding 3 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 refased 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 , and 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 priz ? , in doing which , they for a moment let go their hold ^ of her , when she Blipped away down stairs , and ran naked to the house of Mr . Threlfall , the High Constable , nearly a quarter of a mile off , to procure assistance . Mr . Threlfall and one of bis men were in a few minutes in the midst of the affray which followed , and which ended in the capture oj the thieves on the spot . The whole of the men are supposed to belong to a most desperate gang , who have committed many daring outrages in this neighbourhood lately , and to whom locks and bolts are of no avail . 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 .

      Lady Hewley ' s Charitt—On Friday , the Honse of Lords gave their final judgment on the mueh-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 Hum of money ( now , we believe , yielding nearly £ 3 , 080 a-year ) to CbTtam charitable uses , of -which the principal were— " To assist poor and godly preachers for the time being of Chii 3 t ' s Holy GoBpel . —To assist poor and godly widows of the Bame 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 aim 3-people duly repair to some religious assembly of the Protestant religion , " And 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 hitheno assnmed tp 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 Lyndhum 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 questions had baen 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 Djs * sentrrs to be preachers of the " Holy Gospel of Christ . "

      Suspected Murder and Parricide . —A most revolving 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 Paterson , carter at Hailea Quarry , Robert Paterson , his-boo , and Janet Paterson , the wife of Jame 3 , ai . d mother of Robert , left Edinbargh for their home about eleven o ' clook , and that they were , particularly the female , considerably intoxicated . When near Slateford toU , the female , it appears , had been either unable to proceed , or some quarrel had « nsned among them ; bat 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 h&d come up to the party , found the woman lying dead , and assisted to convey her to the toll-house . They afterwards returned to Edinburgh , and gave information to the police , when some officers were despatched , who took the two male Patersons into Cnstody _ at their house , both seemingly nnconscious of , or indifferent about , the dreadful event . Mr . Tsit , 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 . TO THE CHARTISTS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM . Brother Chartists , —We the Delegates pubUciy appointed by our respective localities , to see to the eating and drinkhig business of the Victims in Stafford Gaol , and also their wives and families , beg to inform yon that the Victims' Fund is in a very low state , bo much so , that we have been obliged to relinquish support of the victims , and their families receive a poor miserabls pittance . Brethren , ft is tot you to say whether the victims , with their wives and families ahonld pine in want and misery . Remember their sufferings lor our cause , -. ' and the district from whence they are taken Is unable to lend much assistance , as the neighbourhood ia composed almost exclusively of colliers who are on Btrike —• 30 , 000 of them having left the district to subsist .. upon casual chsmty .

      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 think it hard to be left to starve ? How lonnyou may be at liberty God only knows . AROUSE then , AROUSE ! AWAKE to ENERGY ! and let the captives see that yoa nave hearts to feel and sympathise "with those who are suffering 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 bis brave comrades to starve upon bread and water ? We anticipate that you will respond , and that immediately . Signed by order of the D ^ e «; ate 8 , A . FUSSEtL , Chairman . P . S . All monies to be sent to Mr . Cook , Dudley .

      TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAB . Sib , —I write to inform you that all round the Tillages and places in and about Wolverhatnpton ia quiet , though we bave 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 . ¦ . ¦ '' r ' : '¦ ' ¦ . ' ., Coal is very scarce and dear , £ 1 to £ 1 4 s . per ton . Oar brave colliers will yet triumph , aud ere ten days shall hare passed , the men will Lave 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 dubs and helping each othtr as much as possible . Linney is doiug well and ¦ working hard at Bilston and its localities ; but he labours too much for his heaitb .

      The insertion of the following by the request of the Wolverhampton Council and friends will greatly oblige : — " It is with regret that we inform oar Chartist friends that Mr . H . Candy , wno , since his return to . Wolverhampton , which is nearly four months , has zealously persevered in the cause , and night after night , after the labour and toil of his work , he has delivered lectures on each Sunday , generally three times . Since poor Mason's incarceration , he has laboured more ardeutiy . His meetings of late have been from four

      to six thousand people , and at times more . He has been mainly instrumental in preserving the peace of the tewn of Wolverhampton ; the colliers will almost do anything for him . What ' s the result ? that some of the most influential shopkeepers are using means to get his employer to discharge him ; and from his great exertions—having delivered upwards of sixty lectures—boia now unfit for work , for he is suffering severely from a violent vomiting of blood , which at fir ^ t was thought the ruptu re of a vessel . It has produced fever and inflimatkm of the lungs . He is required to take great care . . ,

      " Now Candy belongs to no club ; his wife has beep lying ill in the Potteries , little chance , if ever she recovers ; and we believe a more honest or strai ghtforward . Cnartist 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 bastile it will break his heart , therefore we sincerely hope every true Chartist will contribute a mite , so that we may get him round again . We believe he gave satisfaction while in the Yorkshire and other districts , therefore , dear Sir , we trust you will do your best Yours , respectfully , J . WitCOX , Secretary . Wolverhampton , Wednesday .

      NOTTINGHA 1 VI .-THE NOMINATION . -: Thursday , the 4 th of August , 1842 , will be a day for ever remembered by all parties in Nottingham . The parties on both sides were early at work , but the thrashing of Tuesday night put all hopes of Buccess from violence out of the mind of the Tories . . '" ¦ ¦ : . " r . - '¦ ¦ '¦ ¦ . - :: '¦ ,. ¦ ¦ ¦ .. ¦'¦ . } -- ' > ' .- ^ - ~ . "¦'' . '" ¦ 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 / and the great portion was at the disposal of the friends of Mr . Sturge , but was nevertheless found inadeq . uaie 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 . HAKtoVriCKE 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 . CHAKI . TON , his former colleague , seconded the nomination ift rather i better speech . The veteran Mr . Bean , who has always endeavoured to push the Btarid-S'ill Whigs forward , vlq minated Mr .

      Mr . Cris * seconded his nomination , in ah 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 Bound and a good one . Mr . Sweet nominated , and Mr . Roberts , tailor , ( an Irishmany seconded Mr . O'Connor . Mr . Smith Fowler nominated , and Mr . Minnett seconded Mr . Vineent . Mr . Walteb 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 bein ^ altered , he spoke hesitatingly and without effect , aud in cencluuion , read an extract from a speech of Coroner Wukley in aid of his pretensions ; but all would not do ; he retired amid groans indescribable . When 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 is now M . P . for Nottingham , } spoke at considerable length , and with great force and effect . He analysed every point of the Charter , poiut by point , nobly standing up for one and ait ; and when he came to the question of Annual Parliamente , he said , "I am filled with astoniHhmeht 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 Walter ^ 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 ayain . 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 contrasting 'his position with that of Mr , Walter , he said , What do I contend for ? ec [ ual rights , What do you live upon ? the advertisements of wet nurses , dry nurses , scullionf , 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 * then I will divine it from the fullness of those starting veins on the back of his hand , ( immediate laughter followed this , but the moat thrilling effect was 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 crew , 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 cbaiition 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 scene 3 ever witnessed was prasented , not a single solitary hand ia the body of the Hall was raised lor Mr . Walter , aud wheu a show was demanded for Sturge every single hand , without exception was proudly raised ph high . / About thirty varied colpured 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 Exchange , 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 plaees , 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 . Mri O'Connor and Alderman Preareon are to be tried on SatuTday , 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 thecontest tomorrow , in time for your third edition . The Chartists will have 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 magistratesj as represented in a ^ Tory Bill , which will ehlighteh 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 eleotion is over .

      The bill which our correspondent has sent us is too long for insertion , nor is it even worth while to trouble our readers with the whole of its contents . Ihe facts eifoxn to by the yeraciona Toriesare 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 waggon from them % " 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 declared that they did nothing at all to cause any riot or affrayiand laid all the blame on the ChartistSi 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'Cprinor not only knocked him down for nothing , but stole his cap into the bargain , which he ( O'Con nor ) had worn the whole evening after . Of course , the warrants were granted , and Saturday at upon , was appointed as the time of hearing .

      at our market on Friday rather less reluctance on the part of the dealers to purchase .

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 e&me . At oar market this morning we had for the season of the year a fair supply ofWheatfrom the country , which met aslow sale at a decline of 2 * . to 3 s . per quarter on the prices of this day Be'nnight . The few transactions that took place in foreign Wheat were at a similar reduction , but factors generally were unwilling to submit to the decline , and withheld their samples . Ryeis nearly unsaleable . In Malt and Barley there is little doing : Peas met a retail demand , but Beans are neglected . ¦ -. '"¦ . J : . - .

      London Corn Exchangb , Monday , Aug . 8 , — We had on Saturday frequent showers of rain , since which the weather has been , and still is , very fine for harvest operations , which are progressing rapidly and favourably in the home counties . The supply of old English Wheat at this day's market was much shorter than for the last few Weeks , but we must note a further decline of Is . to 2 a . per qr . since this day se ' nnight ; There were about 200 to 300 ars . of new o » sale from Essex and Snffalk ( chiefly of Talavera sorts of very superior quality ) , . which sold at from 60 $ . to 68 s . per qr . v but none from Kent . There is a large supply of 1 * 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 few transactions took place , chiefly in fresh Baltic importatidris , at about 23 i less money ; but the Mediterranean sorts were more depressed , at a greater abatement . There is very little quotation either in Barley , Malt , or Beans , if anything the buyers had rather the turn in their favour . White Peas Is to 2 ^ 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 tp sell without yielding in price . Foreign are more scarce , and the pric * rather better than Monday last . We had a few speculative inquiries for Egyptian Beans , and there are buyers at 20 a per quarter , which price few holders are disposed to accept . ,

      London Smithfield Catile Market , Aug . 8 . --There was landed from a steam-vessel , early this morning , nine Beasts from Rotterdanij for to-day s market , which excited ho 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 were 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 full of fat . On Saturday 30 store Beasts were received from Hamburgh , but which were not destined for this market ; and advices have reached us of large numbers about to be shipped from the above-mentioned ports this week , with respect to the prime cost of the nine Beasts offering to-day , we understand it was nearly as follows : •' : : " PerHead .

'¦ ¦ . £ 20 5 0 From the above it will be perceived that a fair profit has been obtained by the importers , and which will , no doubt , encourage them tp supply us exteneively . Theairiyals of Beasts from our grazing districts were ^ compared with those noted this day se * nhight , somewhat on the increase , they comprising about 1700 Shorthorns , Rants , &o ., from Lincolushire , Leicestershire , Northamptonshire , &c . ; 300 Herefords and Devons , from our western counties ; 200 Scots , Homebreds , &o ., from Norfolk . Suffolk , Essex ,

      and Cimbridgeshire ; 200 Irish Beasts , Scots , Runts , Devons , &c , from ether parts of England ; and 90 Scots , by sea , from Dundee . The general qnality of the Bullock supply being inferior , such kmds sold heaviiy ,-at a reduction on last week ' s quotations of 2 J per 81 b . but the value of the priraest descriptions was maintained , the : best Scots selling at 4 s 6 d per 81 bs . We had a large number of Sheep offering . Prime OJd Downs sold , t * ith some degree of freedom , at full rates of currency ; but other breeds commanded little attention . Lambs which were in large supply , were unusually heavy in sale , and the prices obtained were very uneven ; but the verjr highest did not range above from 4 s 8 d to 5 s per 81 b .

      TO THE CHARTISTS OK LEEDS , SHEFFIELD , BARNSLEY , AND THE W £ ST RIDING GENERALLY . Brothers , —It is with much reluctance that I again have to addresa you upon the monetary matters « f the- West Riding . Yet a sense of duty , as the Secretary , urges me to call upon those towns which have not yet paid their quota towards discharging the debts incurred by the late West Riding election , to do so immediately . It is a most shauieful blot upon the West Riding , ths . t ¦ working men who have advanced money for tht support of our glorious cauae , should loss the nme . It is only necessary that every town pay their equal shire , and then justice will be done to all and every one . Hoping that this -will be the means of effecting the Utsired end , I remain , Yours most sincerely , Edw . Clayton , Sec . Huddersfield , August 8 th , 1842 .
