It was not positively known that the prisoner would h. , examined on Friday ; yet several hours previous to the -examination an amazing number of persons assem bled, and the business of the office suffered consider able interruption. The Magistrates theretime thought it expedient to remove the prisoner into a private room fir examination. At one o'clock Mr. Jones and Mary Barry arrived in a hackney-coach from St Thomas's hospital, under the care of a surgeon and two nurses ; they wer e so w ea k k• ns sareol;.- to be able to stead. At two the prisoner was brought into the room and confrontel with Jones and the servant ; the latter fainted as soon as she saw him, imd it was with difficulty that Mr. Jones was roused to sensibility. When he recovered, he exclaimed, "0 Gml! I thought I saw him with a knife in his hand." The Magistrates ordered the prisoner to be taken out of the room, as his presence so much agitated the prosecutors. About two Mrs. Jones arrived in a hackney-coach, also extremely weak, and the Magistrates proceeded to hear e idenee. Mary Barry, the servant, stated. „ On the 26th o f Sepomber le , t, a little after I o'clock in the afternoon, I WAS at home with my imistn and mistrese, and heard a knock at the door; I opened it, and h aw the prisoner ; without saying a word he forced himself in • my master was in the back room ; I called out, Mr. Owen is here !' and my master then came out of the back roam into the passage, where he met the prisoner. The prisoner immediately took from under his coat a large pointed carving-knife, and without speaking made a blow at my master, who lifted his hand to defend himself, ar,d prisoner cut and struck him dreadfully on the hand. My mistress dien came out. and she and I attempted to save my master, and take away the knife. I got hold of it. and he drew it through my hand, and cut me very much, and then began cutting and slashing awey at rtilidnin, and cut us all three; he cut me on the arm, stabbed toe in the neck, and wounded me in the in forehead• I then ran out, and called for assistance, and came back again, and found my master lying on the floor in the back room, bleeding very inuelt, and the prisoner lying over him , with a k n ife under my matter's clothes, and apparently sticking in his side ; when I re— turned to the house. a young man returreel with I/12. and he assisted, and we held Owen's arm and got the knife from him. I was then te . :en by some person to the hospital. Mr. Jones deposed to the same effect, and added. that the out he reNived acre, the hand in the passage disabled him fnmi offering nturlt deferice • and he soon became insensible ; when he r e c o v ere d be found himself dreadfully cut in the neck, and part of his left tar off: He formerly had a law-suit with prisoner, but had not spoken to him since August, 181fi. Mrs. Jones stated, that during the struggle between them all in the passage, she hard prisoner saw, " You wretches, kill you all." She received several cuts about the head and face, and a stab in the side ; saw the prisoner attempt to stab her husband in the sides then • became sensless, having bled eauessively. Charles Hopkins, the young man alluded to in Mary Barry's evi dence, stated, that he •saw Barry run out of Jones's house covered with blood, and calling for assistance ; he went into the house with her. and saw Mr. Jones on the floor bleeding very much, and prisoner lyin't over him, with the knife apparently in Jones's side, saw hint arise Mrs. Jones and pull her down ; Mrs. Jones called Melt to take the knife away from him ; he gave the knife to Holmes, the consu ar. and then went to the int:pied with Mr. JOlleb and the servant.

The fatal in strument was produced by lioluies, rusted with blood ; it was a carving4mife 14 inches long, and the blade about an inch an half wide. The Magistrate said it was a transaction as horrible as ever disgraced a civilized country. The prisonor was sent ow to gaol in a couch, amidst the extxratiokof about 2,000 spectators.

The following account is given by a person from Phi ladelphia, who states, that most of the particulars he derived from conversation with the Junior Watson, who from his notoriety had attracted the attention of several of the l)emocrates and low people of that town. After the disgraceful scenes of the 2d December, he remained concealed by his associates for two months, during which time every means were tried to alter his appearance ; incisions were made in his Ewe to give hint the look of a person troubled with the scurvy, and clothes were made, padded with couon, to give him the appearance of a corpulent man, his habit was that of a qaaker ; his disguise being considered complete, he took his passage in a vessel named the Venus, bound for Phi ladelphia: on their reaching the Downs, she was stept by a look out boat, a telgraph message being received that the Venus must be stein, information being re ceived that Yong Watson was absolutely on board the vessel. Two Bow-street officers shortly afterwards ap peared, and strictly investigated every particular re specting the passengers and crew ; the young culprit, on being examined, appeared a middl e -a ge d tlit man, and behaved rather rudely to the officers, refusing to - give an account of himself; on being questioned his name, his answer was, what is that to thee, get thee away ; he was passed : the vessel was then thoroughly searched, but without effect On the arrival of the vessel at Philadelphia, the Captain was greatly surprised when he learned the old-Quaker was a yeung soon, and the very person elle search was made for, having assumed his own name on landing. He now lives at a short dis tance from Philadelphia. A subscription, begun by an Editor of a Democratic Paper, has lwea raised for his relief. The Gazette of Saturday contains an Order in Coun cil fur the further prorogation of Parliament from the 3d of November, to the I titli of Dec.; and a Proclama tion by the l'rince Regent, ordering the half-soveresgns or ten shilling pieces, to pais as current and lawful money, if not weighing less than 12 dwts, 13 grs. They are issued from tho Mint at the weight of dwts. 1$ grs. and 6,370-10,000 parts of a grain. There is no longer ary concealment attempted re specting assistance being given by the British sub jects to the South American independents. Notices are posted up in several coffee-houses in the city, inviting paiamigers to go OIL board vessels waiting to sail direct for South America. A fourth canto of Childs lluruhl has within these few days been received from the continent. C\IO\•M illnitaxitt AV)) RIOT.--0a Saturday, Simon Henry Butler, Esq. Captain of the slid re h intent of dragoon- 4 madding in Westminster, came to the office, listing the most grotesque appearance that can possibly be Ml:shined. flu tact was pat tly covered pith soot and dirt on one side, and the other aide was whin?, covered with dour,— Ins clothes were torn. lii; shirt frill ripped tiff, and his apparel co vered w ith dirt. h . the gentleman stated he was an officer in his Nlajesty'a service, and tad just arrival Cunt , the East Indio', his veracity Was questioned, for, ...aniging from his appea ra n ce . S t . t;iles'scoulsl not have roductal an object of a more nondescript ap pearance. The presiding 'Ma4istrate aAtal the gettleinan how lie cam,: to be in such a deplorable condition. Capt. Butler stated, that he was walking along Blackfriars-rand that morning. and was ac.tosted by a well-dressed female, who. struck him with a cane, and he caught hold of it and broke it. She said, "You have broke my cane s and you ought to make me a re compense." He offered to give het w.tatcvcr she required. She said, " Come then, and let us have something to drink." and took him over the ruins in the Borough-rust to the back way leadieg into I lover-street, St. Georges fields. lie thought she was taking him into a public-house. When he got into the house, he said this is no public-house ; she rep:ied, this is where I live, bat I will send my servant for whatever you may pleaae to drink. Ile then gave the servant half.a-crown to purchase sonic dumb, as thefenialr said she preferred that liquor. 'limy sat down and drank several glasses of shrub, and lie was about to depart, when she demanded as. for the loss of her time with hint. He replied that he was a married nein— he had received no favours from her, and therefore lie refused to give her what she demanded. Ile had a diamond pin in his bosom, and she seized him by the frill of his shirt and tore it away, pin and all, and then screamed murder, and said that she would call the" ladies." She had scarcely spoken, when the door was burst open, and more titan 30 ladies and two fellows, who he had learned were buillies, were stationed at the door. He seized the tire-shovel, and fought his way out of the house : when he got into the street he wa- tollowed by tne inmates of that and adjoining brothels. and was petted A lilt oyster-shells, stud, whitening, and stones. The mob increased, anti there were near 51 0 persons at one time surrounding him. They said that he should undergo that punishment which, they always inflicted on pectins who bilked their companions. After untictgotng that pmress. having been beat with brushes, sticks, flour-bap, tee , he escaped from them to a constable's house, where he applied for assistance. 'fhe constable being from home, he wan obitged to come to that units, and requested the Magistrate would grant a warr int fir the apprehensio:' of the parties w.in had robbed him. The Magistrate granied a warrant, and dispatched Hall, ea officer, to execute it. Hall returned with the girl in custody. lie stated that tile louse we. 33, in laover-atreet, kept by a 'woman named Royce. When he entered the hone, he saw the fmtale who robbed the Captain sitting before the tire quite naked, ex cept her petticoat. He broug.it tnis female, whose flame is Eliza Palmer, and the servant, a girl about 13 years of age, before the Magistrate. Eliza l'aliner, the prisoner, declared, that the had never seen tlicdiamonal pin. She acknowledged having the frill, and said that she had not attecked Neu without cause. Ilak searched the house where:Cie pristine" liv al, and fignd t!,e frill of a shirt, which wan torn in pieces. The Cap.iin said, that all he warned was his pin which was worth to guineas. The Al agisti atc ordered the prisoner Palmer to lie committed, anti the servant be thacharged. He in formed the ('sprain that it' he would point alit to the officers who were the chief permits that headed tite mob, he would have them ap prehended and kept in cusaitly until they thund goad hail to answer what charges Ite might prefer waists them at the ww:i AVERAGE PR ICES .0 CORN PER QUA !ITER, TN ENGLJEND ANT) WALE:3I'OIC TUE WEEN ENDINO OCT. 4.
