When it was done the pri-Kner asked his mother to stand some more, and upon tier rfnsal to do so he seized her by the wrist, dagged her with peat violence through the place, and at last threw her cowa. She shouted "Murder!" throe times, and the wit- ESies went to her assistance, but when they attempted pun me prisoner away irom ner ne assaulted fcm both with great fury, and it was only with jj greatest difficulty that they at length succeeded in riming him ou'. When in the street he collected a great rawd by his attempts to re-en'er the house, and at last he iuhed his hand and arm through a square of plate glass in Ue door, he being not quite drunk, and not exaerlv sober. The prisoner said the wirnesses were the aggressors, and jtshnd only struck tbem in self-defence. His mother naid the rum with a half-crown, and af erwards said the land-hdy had not given her the change.

He was getting the coney out of her pocket to convince her that she was wrong, ij shen his motoir, being drunk, fell down, and he stooped to tin her tip again. While he was doing that the witnesses ijeait up and struck him, and then, on striking them again, he broke the window and cut his arm dreadfully. i Police-constable 624 deposed to the violence of the prisoner, adding that at his own request the latter had been taken to a 'iftrgion, who charged 2a. 6d. for strappingnp his arm.

TB.K S1BSEY MURDERERS. Carey and Pickett, the Sibsey murderers, have let-8hisl'1 theta two Btatnents respecting the murder of Mr. Stephenson, which differ materially from the confessions previously made. Pickett, it will be remembered, stated that when they left the inn they had no intention of taking the old man's life, and to this statement he still adhered, although in the following extract from hiB confession will be found assertions somewhat at variance with the account he formerly gave- Carey got on his knees, and pulled the old man down. Stephenson struck Carey with his walking stick while falling.

I held his head while Carey robbed him. I got up and struck him on the ground until my stick broke all to pieoee. Carey got off when he had robbed him, and beat him aoout the head; then carried him into the sewer. Carey went back across the road to fetch hia stick, uck 013 maQ o'BM 0' nine times over the head until his stick broke all to pieces. Then the old manstoodupinthesewer; Carey shoved at him with the Sroken pan of his stick, trying to pu-h him down into the water.

Mr. Stephenson got from him, and walked to the other side of the sewer. Carey then threw the broken part the Bewer ad said to me, Go round to the other aide and kill him I went round to Mr, Coatee's yard, got a piece of a rail, and went to the old mac. Mr. Stephenson had the thorn stiok produced in court on his shoulder, and appeared to be going home.

Carey said, Make haste, or ha will get I went behind him and struck him on the aide of the head, and knocked him down. I hit him till my stick broke all to pieces "(this was the rail or broad stick). I then took the Btick Mr. Stephenson had, and hit him about the head till he was dead. I dragged him to the hedge.

I was trying to throw him into the sewer, hut could not. I told Carey I could not threw him over by myself, and that he must oome and help me. Carey said, Try again you can get him I then took hold of his legs, reared him up on end, and tumbled him lnlo the sewer. After that we buth left, one on one side of the sewer and the other on the other." Pickett expressed deep contrition for his crime, and states 'hat his parents had prophesied that if he "kept oompany with Carey he was certain either to be transported or Dg; Carey's statement about their having had handkerchiefs over their faces he declares to be untrue hut he makes the acknowledgment that he (Pickett) struck the blow which caused death. One night during his imprisonment a thunlerstorm came on, and he states that he was tnghifully alarmed.

I thought," heBays, Mr. Stephenson was coming to me in the cell." In an address to his young companions," he warns them against sin, and urges them to adopt a religious life. He expresses his oeiiet that both he and his companion are on the way to heaven. Carey, in his address, is equally confident respecting the future, and he attributes hia ovil course to drink." He, says Mr. Stephenson had been a good friend to him, and admits having been the person to suggest the robbery of the old man.

He also makes this confession, I know that 1 am the worst, and persuaded Pickett into it." The Divorce Court. a series of tables on this subject were published yesterday in return to an order of the House of Commons moved for by Mr. Malins. The first table shows the number of petitions for dissolution ot marriage each year, from 1833 to 1859. Up to 1839 there were only one each year, in 1840 there were three, in 1811, bix; in 1842, two; and in 1813, only one again.

In the next three years there were five and six annually in 1847, ten and in the succeeding years up to 1852 about the same number. In 1S53, there were thirty the average for the next few years. In 1857, up to the 28th of August (the data ot the passing of the act), twenty-two; and from then to the end of the year, tbirty-one together fifty-three for the entire year the same number as that in the next year, 1858. Shocking Mueder and Suicide. On Tuesday an appalling occurrence took place in Hurdsfield, a township bordering on the borough of Macclesfield.

The victims are a young woman and her female illegitimate child, who were found dead in the dwelling-house where they lived, with their throats cut from ear to ear. The name of the mother was Mary Collins, a single female, about twenty-four years of age, who lived in a house by herself in Daybrook-street, and earned her livelihood by working at a silk-mill in the vicinity. The circumstances are brief. On Tuesday morning tho neighbours remarked that the shutters of the house in which the deceased lived were not opened at the usual hour, and, as eleven o'clock approached, they became alarmed. Some of them knocked loudly on the shutters, and, no answer being returned, the window was ferced.

A shocking sight met their gaze, A female lay on the floor weltering in blood, and a child lay in bed with its head almost severed from its body. The unfortunate woman was in straiteued circumstances, and it is thought that the fear of increased poverty led her to commit tho rash act. An inquest was held in the evening, when a verdict of Temporary lEStfuty" was returned. Murder at Dursley. On Sunday night a blacksmith of this place, named Rutter, was murdered by his witewhen asleep in his bed.

The parties have not lived happily with eaoh other, and on Sunday were both away from home drinking, being at the Star public-house nearly the whole day. The woman was drunk in one room of the houBe, and her husband in another. While drinking at the "ob uearu to tnreacen mat sne would do tor him, meaning her husband. Rutter shortly afterwards left the house, and on getting home went to bed. He was soon afterwards followed by his wile, who also went up stairs, and taking deceased's razor, while he was aBleep, inflicted a frightful wound in his throat, extendine from ear to ear.

After doing this, the woman deliberately wiped the razor, and placed it under the pillow where the deceased's head was lying. An inquest was held on the body on Monday, and the woman has been committed for trial on a charge wilful murder. The assizes at Gloucester commenced on Wednesday, and the prisoner has been conveyed there to await her trial. The late Burglary and Attempted Murder in Shoe-lane. It will be remembered that a most daring attempt at murder and burglary was made at Messrs.

Devey and Dale's, braesfoundera, Shoe-lane, about I u-j wuen cwo 01 lae burglars escaped, a third being apprehended in Sr. Bride'a-passage, where he threw away a life preserver. At the station-house this man gave the name of Michael Herring. Inspector Shelford, Acting-inspector Speck, and Green the detective officer, have traced the antecedents of Herring, He has the alias of Elsom, He was convicted at Hull, and sentenced to two months' imprisonment and at York he was sentenced to fifteen years' confinement for an attempted murder. A few months ago he was made a tioket-of-leave man, and he hsa since been wanted for a burglary at Mr.

Fredericks', 85, Windsor-road, Holloway. Detective Green, of the City police, has apprehended the second man, Henry Wil harna, alias Henry Hudson, aliaB Little Harry, at 19, Little Union-street, Borough. He wss concerned in the Holloway burglary, a part of the stolen property having been found on hia nerson. The wm nlan Cnnnrl in m. liamB's possession a massive silver bread-basket, a silver wrajxc, auu a variety ui silver piate, tne proceeds ot another burglary, which can be seen on application at Fleet-street station-house.

The most strenuous exertions are being mads by the police to apprehend the third man, who has also a ticket of leave. The Robbery at Wortley-hall. Joseph Wor-rall, buloher, Howbrook, remanded from last Friday, was brought up before the magistrates at Sheffield again on Tuesday, on a charge of breaking into Wortley-hall, the residence of Lord Wharncliffe, during the night of Monday, the lBt and stealing from the bedroom occupied by Major Frazer a pair of trousers, dressing-gown, boots, Bank of England note, gold pin, studs, and other artioles, Witnesses were called to prove that the prisoner left the Wortley Arms public-house, Wortley, a little before 12 o'olock on the night of the let and that he was seen between 3 and 4 o'clock on Tuesday morning in a field between Wortley-hall and his father's house, apparently attempting te pull on a pair of biacktrousers ovor his own. On Tuesday afternoon he went to the Black Swan Inn, Sheffield, and obtained change for a iOl. Bank of England note.

He afterwards boastingly showed the money to ohn Darwin and Henry Barraelough. to whom he was known, stating that it was his own. He was under the influence of liquor at the time and on the men toning mm ne wouia lose rue money in BBemeld, He gave 10 sovereigns to one, and 9Z. 10s. in gold to the other to take care of for him.

At this time prisoner was wearing a pair of patent leather boots, supposed to be those stolen from Major Frazer'e room. On Thursday afternoon prisoner was apprehended by detective officer Bravshaw. of the Sheffield Eolice, at a beer-house at High-green, and a gold pin, button ook, and two pair of scissors were found upon him. Major Frazer identified the pin, and bis valet the button hook and scissors. Major Frazar could not identify the Bank of England note, and the missing boots, dressing grown, and trousers have not been found.

The prisoner denied his guilt. He was committed for trial to the assizes at York. The Murder near Leeds. The Manchester Guardian of yesterday says The Leedspolicehaverecoived such information as enables them to furnish the following description of oneofthe men supposed to be implicated in the murder of Mr. Broughton A young man, about five feet four inches high, stout built, broad set, broad ohubby features, dark hair cut short behind, dressed in a dark cloth or velvet shooting coat, dark cotton cord trousers, mended on the seat, and wearing clogs.

The watch was an old-fashioned German silver timekeeper, of Htlle value, the maker's name being London, No. We are sorry to add that there at present appears very little hope of detecting the murderers, the description furnished by the deceased being of tho vaguest possible character, and no other persons appearing to have met them on the road." The Charge of Will Forgery at Manches ter. va i uesaay, at the Salford Borough Court, Richard Hardy, beerhouse-keeper, Pendleton; Ruth Berry, his daughter, and Joseph Berry, her husband; and an elderly uiau uowci wuui.

All the prisoners were committed for trial at the assizes, THE PARAMATTA AND THE ROYAL MAIL STEAM-BOAT COMPANY ONCE MORE AFLOAT. TO THE EDITOR OP THE DAILY HEWS, Sir, Before you receive this the public will have vented ita tuoignutiou the nad aouiutnt which has happened to the Paramatta, and, in ihe true headlong style ut otthodoxy, will alrcaay hold tho ouppoaed delmuawuui hound and bleeding ready to be offered up to the priding divinity ot dividends and sale investments.

Wo-, belore the blow tails by the hands of their reverences, the Royal Mai! bteaiu Pmatet Comuany, and the high priests ut me said divinity the Board of Trade, permit me as one of the passengers ua buara the Paramatta, and constantly on decs, noting tvery incident ot interest up to and after me time of oui striking upon the Auegadaieois, permit me to nay a lew Words upon the subject. Ou Thursday, tue 21th June, at about half-past twelve cluck, lot. 3o dug. it lun. 37 deg.

43 tho starboard paadie-wheel was disabled by ttriking against something unseen uf great bulK, supposed to bo a wrecked vessel arming sjme six or eight leet undtr water. There Was UjtUinK to iudicate its auurnunh m'thar In the men at the bow ur tu the several passengers who at tue time were gazing in the very directum which the wreck must have takeu beiore it struck ihe ship's wheel. The blow broke ouo of tuo iron stays of the forward nave of the wheeUleau off, and epht the huge nave itself to the otntie. Attar about five hours' incessant toil on the part of the chief engineer and his men, uuuer the personal luspection of our indefatigable captain, ve again proceeded un our way. Early the next uiorwug, tne snip's head was brought round, so as to give the injured wheel to the lee side, for the purpose or bemg te-exiiiuiuua, ana tne iron chuiu which had been bound round the crocked nave was tigntened, and alter a furiher delay ot huurs, we pursuea our way gallantly ugaiu, a reduced speed, at which we continued till ihe 7th, when the chief engineer reported to Captain Bayntun that the snip might proceed with perfect safoty at a higher speed, from which up to the night of the 30th tne ship made from 12 to 13 knois an hour.

During the whole of tho afternoon of the 30th, Ihe vigilance ot Captain Baynton, and the chief officer, Mr. Scrivtn, was the frequent subject of remark to all on board. They Were constantly to beaten alternately, either ou the paddle gallery, or taking nautical observations, making up the log, or correcting iho ship's time by the bun and although iwu deputations weie sent up to tue oapiaua retjUBsiing him to descend into the dining saloon it it were only lor five minutes, to partake of some food, nothing could induce him to yield. During all this time there was a mau stationed aloft in the ugging looking out tur the expeoted headland of Sombrero. Wight, however, closed upon us, and, despite the constant aia of telescopes, not a vootigeor shadow oi tue laud appeared.

At last, at half-past nine o'clock at night, the ship struck upon ihe horse-shoe reef ot Anegaua, a strong ana treacheruus current having insensibly bent the ship's course thereto. If the accident to the wneel alieady mentioned had not occurred we snould have sighted iiouibero about midday on the 30tb, and all would have beeu welt, and we should not have so sensibly felt the want of a common lighthouse on tho height of bombrero, of which many a humble mariner has so often and so fatally found the need already. The Board of Trade well known that our merchantmen require such a light; but the usual wisdom of Btate-policy has always its technical answer to give, and so the Board of Irade is eelf-acquitied already. But what Bhall be said of the Royal Mail Steam Packet Oompany, who lung knowing that a light-hjute at Sombrero Was absolutely necessary, and having fresh evidence of the necessity for it before them for tne last three or four months, by the hulk of a large vessel lying on the iaial recta of Ane-gada, and frowning a disregarueu warning to the company as their vessels passed in Bight what shall be eaid of the Company and its court ot direotora for not having taken the precaution to set up a lighthouse there A common wooden structure wuuld bo sufficient, and the expenditure of 6s a night would amply pay tor the required supply of oil. But nu.

The skill and talent or tneir officers must supply the need of lighthouses, and laugh to scorn such trifles as dark nights, high wiuds, strong and contrary cutrenis, and rsuch insignihoant things as a twenty-milo reef of coral rocks like the hores-ehoe reef of Anegada. And if not, then by a law worthy of Draco, all the company's captains and ohiet omoers who presume to need light-houses, are to be stretched by this new Procrustes upon a modern bed of justice, and tne services, oharaoter, and reputation of those noble fellows must be cut off, and they, unhappy men, fur ever dismissed, and Jett to begin their perilous. career again, aa beat they may penerunt tempora long i servilii. The Board of Iraue, too, lenas a hand to the torture, by suspending their rights as officers, or entirely depriving the victims of their certificates. We (say they) are trustees of the public Bafety, and we (cries the oompany) are the trustees of our subscribers for the due increase and payment of dividends.

But there is a trust higher than all these, of which I venture to remind these exeat. InnMinnaripi whih n.r pulously and jelously discharged, will condemn them in the- juuguioiit on an Honourable men a trust worthier and dearer tbau dividends and personal safety. 1 mean the trust of their honour and reputation, which suoh men as Captain Baynton and Mr. Scriven have reposed in them. Let the Board of Trade and the Company discharge that trust first, and think of the safely of life and dividends after.

If they do this, toen Captain Baynton and Mr. Scriven will be retained in their rank and position, and life and dividends be best consulted for also. But if not, then the board and company will act somewhat like the Cariuthian boors, who hung a man first, and three days after judged of the faot alleged against him, and haying found him not guilty, took him down, buried him at the public expense, and, with pious cruelty, said prayers for his soul.

of tbe Western Circuit, Barrister-at-Law. The Trent, Caribbean Sea, June 4. REPORT Olf EMIGRATION. Ablue hook of 240 pages, recently published, contains thelOth general report of theEmigtationCommi6sionerB(1859). The report, comparing the emigration of 1856, 1857, and 1858, attempts to account for the striking decline noticeable in the number of persons emigrating from the shores of Albion, for last year it fell to 113,972 from 212,875 in 1857 (this latter figure, too, exhibiting a great difference as compared with preceding years).

The ooinmercialorisie of 1857 and the distress in (he Australian colonies are said to have boon oauees greatly instrumental of late in deterring persona from leaving home to try their chance across the Atlantic or at the distant antipodes. There Was also a great demand ior men in England. But a more satisfactory and permanent cause of decrease ia to ba found. Hnvs t.h ronnrt in the altered rendition of Ireland. In 1851 not leas than three fourths of the whole number who left: thn tin1nm were Irish.

Since that period the proportion has gradually declined, until in 1867, it was only per or two-fifths of the emigration, while in 1858 it tell to 38 per cent. The constant oause here at work is to be found in tho increased prosperity of the working olasses in Ireland, and the consequent absence of any inducement to emigrate. That it arises irom no want of means to pay for passages is evident from the remittance of 472,6102. for the purpose of facilitating the emigration of friends and relations during the year 1858. The mortality on board emigrant ships to North America is declining year by year; frem 1854 to 1858 it fell from -74 to -I9per cent.

Of the 113,972 emigrants last year, 9,704 went to British North America, 69,716 to the TJnitad States, and 39,295 to Australia. Germans cuiigrutttu irom uermany to an parts ot the world in the same period a great falling off aa compared with previous years. The oauee of this decline cannot be assigned with certainty at present. 17,207 emigrants to Australia last year paid their own passages, and 15,910 were assisted. 18,841 emigrants returned last year from America, and 4,863 from Australia and New Zealand.

The return of emigrants from America is attributable, no doubt, to the commercial distress which during last year prevailed in the United States and British North America, and paralysed the usual means of employment. The smaller number who returned from Australia conBisf, probably, of persons who, having acquired property, have come back to enjoy it in the mother country. Dr. Normandy's apparatus for distilling- fresh from sea water haB been tried and found to be so satisfactory that it wilt be used henceforth on board all passenger ships by express and positive order of the Privy Council, Of 4,442 ciJ who en'fcrated to Canada. 1,651 were farmers, 1,693 labourers, and 932 mechanics; The remainder' (266 persons) are classed as olerks and servants." The former have already been warned by the local press that their services are not required in Canada, Nay, the prospects for other emigrants are not very encouraging just at present.

Ine redundancy in meohanics and artisans' labour continues, and oannot be provided for at once, so that the newly arrived wiU find it difficult to obtain situations. Persons of no calling or experience in work are solemnly and emphatically warned tbat there is no chance whatever for them in Canada. Capital, or the means of labour, is independable. Farmers possessed of 600., prudent and wen. uapitausts, too, may always find safe investments at 10 or 12 per cent, on landed seonnty the legal interest is 7.

Good farm servants stand the next best chance, but -olerks, porters, grocers, gentlemen servants, and highly skilled meohanics are not invited to go ont. The report on the new colony of British Columbia wiu.wi.ijg. nu upmioncan yet os pronounced on the area of ita goldfiolds, but the general prospeots are oheering. The mortality in the emigration from China to Cuba in the latter half of 1868 was as much as 20.88 per cant. j.he irregular habits and bad health of this class of emigrants are the induoing cause of the evil.

In conclusion, the commissioners advert to the emigration of the first three months of the present year (1859) as compared with the Bimilar neriod of fat-mar Tk. gration of the flrBt three months of the eight years from 1847 to 1864 inclusive averaged 60,604 a year, and of the 12 years from 1847 to 1858 inclusive, 43, 122. In the first three months of the present year it amounted to only 17,314. The extent to which it is affecteS by the demands for the military and naval services seems very evident. In 1864 before the commencement of the Russian war, it was and in 1855, in 1856, in 1857, in the interval between the Russian war and the Indian mutiny, in 1858, and in 1869, 17,314.

Of the emigrants durinfe; the first three months of the year there went to the United States 10,005 British North America, 69; Australia, 6.167; and to other places, making a grand total of 17,314. The sets for the hop duty this year range from 245,000. lo the average nettinp; beine from to SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. CASUALTIES.

nrl TtumriDTT no iBwii, 11 mT, i. i uraue, conveying Intelligence of the has of the Alma. 6 Pbodtjce Mabket. The fortnight under review has been a very quiet one for exports. Value of almost all articles has a downward teidency, hnt buyers keep aloof.

The indigo accountacontmne nearly as before. Sugar doll and Sower. Saltpetre in lew demand at lower prices. A fair business in raw silk, at about 2 rs. decline from the highest point.

In corahs nothing doing. Oil seeds dull and declinine. Jute without inquiry. Sfflower neglected. Hides in fair demand.

Import Market during the last fortnight became gradually very quiet and dull. A very limited demand for local consumption, coupled with very unfavourable accounts from all the up-country markers, caused a general panic in the minds of all piece goods Calcutta dealers, who. labouring under the impression that later in the season, say for the next month or two, the position of the market will be more unsatisfactory, not only kept from further purchases to arrive, but showed considerable inclination to sell the previously purchased and lately arrived goods at a reduction, bemg satisfied with little or no nrofit. Thn all these doings wsb a general fall of prices on all kinds of piece goods, and an expectation that, owing to the very large arrivals of piece goods and yarns, the market will be more inactive, and ihe prices still lower, unless a demand should spring up in the principal up-country market. Yarn has been exceedingly quiet, and, owing to the general cessation ot transactions, prices have considerably fallen.

Metals very dull. Prices nominal. The market for copper continues firm, and a little business has been done in Australian at 49.6. The iron market is dull, and prices lower. Spelter large arrivals have caused rates to recede on our last quotations.

Money Mabket. Money continues abundant, and it is calculated that the banks alone hold nearly two crores and a half unemployed. In the Bazar it can be obtained at one or two per oent. below bank rates. The government does not, however, participate in this abundance, and their position is believed to be in no way better than it was three months ago.

The following is the report of the Bank of Bengal for the week ending June 29, 1859.

An occasional but feeble demand from speonUtors has improved their value by 1 per but it is doubtful if even this will be maintained, though some improvement is hoped for by holders, as it is auticipated the Bengal Bank will ere long reduce the margins on loans, and lower the rate of interest. The present rates are ebout 12-8 per cent, discount for the 5 per and nominally 26 per cent, for 4 per cent. The new 5J per cent, opened at 6-8 per cent, discount. Joint Stock Shares.

The transactions are few, and the market is languid, notwithstanding the lowering of the bank rate of discount. India general shares maintain their value, and Dock shares are wanted at rates above our quotations, but there are no sellers. Ganges hares ore wanted, but there are no sellers under Tug Btiares and Bonded Watehonse scrip is at a heavy discount. In Coal shares there is little doing. In Burdwan Stone shares there is some little inquiry, and auction shares are at a discount.

Exchange. There has been very little doing during the last fortnight in the rates on London. The hanks have been Belters at from 2-0 to 2-0J. The principal sales have been at the latter rate, end that only to a moderate extent. There have been large sales of credit bills at from 2-0 9-16 to 2-0f, and a Braall amount of documentary papers at from2-0Jto 2-0J.

The amount of business transacted for the mail has altogether been very moderate. On China, the rates for the last direct steamer ruled from 225 to 227 per 100 dols. On Bombay, billa at three months' sight have sold from par to 10 annas premium. Freights. Since the departure of the last mail the following vessels have been ohartered of the Sea, for Boston, at our quotation; Sarah Newman, for London, at 2s.

5s. all round Lydia, for Melbourne, at 11. 10a. all round. There has been considerable engagement of tonnage for emigrants to Mauritius, at 33 to 35 rs.

a head, and several ships are on the berth now taking dead weight at 13 and 14 annas a bag. To London and Liverpool buainess is going on as before, and rates'fur London average 21. To Australia, extensive shipments are in progress, and rareB continue 21. 10s. to 21.

12s. 6d. per ton. To America, dols. have been paid for a whole ship.

To France, very little doing, and rates nominally are 60f. to 60f. Business on the wholo is, however, anything but brisk, and should the incoming telegraph bring intelligence of a further decline in produce in the a inyra. 1Ui ruling rates oi Height may reasonably be expected.
