SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. THE TWO-YEAR-OLDS OF 1863.—N0. L TO THE IMHOF OF TIM EXYZIOS.. Sra,—But for the turning-up of Blarney and Carobs* at the close of the year, sad the excellence dia played by Ville de l'Air and Union Jack in their later ea thgementy. the two.yearelds that were out in 1863 would have to be condemoed as being below the average stamp, more particularly those engaged in the Derby, the favourite for which. -Wettish Chief. inustaseurodly have bean beaten by Blarney, Caroline, or Union Jack, as he was by Fills de l'Air at i..;ood000d, had he been fated to meet them at any time. One noteworthy fact in connexion with the juve niles' running during the past season, sod a further proof of the mediocrity of the performer in the Derby, • the general superiority displayed by the fillies weer the colts, and for the first three mouths Bippolyta. Molly Carew, Beeline, Light, and Fille Is l'Air carried all before them, when anything like hap fields met, nothing being deemed on an equality with these until Scottish Chief and Birchbroom came out at Ascot. The winter bad been so open that there were a score ready for the opening two-year-old contest, the Brock/eaby at Lincoln, where three fillies, Hippolyta, Lady Nichol, and Faith, were first home, Lord Adolphus, Tarlatan, Attraction, ad Starbeam, the latter of whom was left at the post, comprising the pick of the remaining seventeen ; but all these were eclipsed very soon afterwards, although they supplied the filet sad reread for the Little John Stakes at la ottiogham in Lady Nichol and Faith, the nodal Virginia, Lady Mary, ice., the last named, with Dawdle, having to succumb at Derby to Measure for Measure, who was in superior coeditors, and ran kinder than she did subsequently. At Liverpool a fresh lot came eat in the Tyro, and Bypath proved the best, which only shows how moderate they most all be, Redcap, who was second to Hypatia, beaten a head, suffering an easy defeat at Shrewsbury at the hands of Wthefield, who was always one of the moderate stamp. The Hopeful, at Domestic, brought out no better lot than the Tyro at Liverpool, Star beam conieensatiog her friends for being left babied at Lin eoln by b eating the Area filly, the Sabra colt, Lord Adol phus, Ac., the latter finishing no nearer to her than he did to Hitholyta, raising a discussion as to whether Starbeam would not, have troubled the Baron's filly at Lincoln had she got away, for Lord Adolphus next day ran a close nos with Stockman at racing weights. But the latter as the season advanced proved to be over- Fated, and his lonlehip, it was said, had goes wrong after running at Lincoln, and Starbesm's triumph over Lady Nichol and Faith at Warwick goes for nothing, as she sad Whitetield teemed) got all the best of the start, only Lady Nichol persevering to catch them, sad a b s got within two lengths at last, after being half a dozen behind them *nee. A: Warwick, \'andervelde came out and polished eff Coimbra so easily an to be overrated when he met good company ; but he and Lord Adolphus were still the best of the oohs figuring at the early spring meetings, inferior as they were to most of the Mika, of which klippolyta, Lady Nichol, Faith, Starbeam, Whitefish', Tarlatan, Attraction, Virginia, Larry Mary, and Dawdle, were the best. The best five in the list, however, did not exhibit any quality until the legitimate season had made some progress, and the whole lot scarcely includes one first clue Illy, for when Starbeam got home something was discovered good enough to give her a lump of weight, in Molly threw, who at Northampton made short work of the Althorpe prk Stakes, although she met some quality. Midnight Maim very fit, and partial to the half mile, came off second beet, with Evelio& third, Echo and Garotter among the next lot, sad the " backward" Verona, Prociells, King George, and Practitioner "nowhere," so that Molly Carew may be said to have done a good thing, and people began to doubt whether anything would be die covered for some time good enough to clip her wings. The Whittlebnry produced nothing to compete with Fantastic and Livingstone over the six furlongs, even at three dozen pounds difference in the weights, Olivia being about the best of them ; and Crouton-park was not graced by one two year-old, while the Newmarket Craven week afforded Lot one juvenile contest, a 50f. plate, bringing together Clairvoyant., Regina, Whitefield Mirage, and Rose as the best of the lot, which was thus mode rate ecough, although the winner, Clairvoyant*, looked Ike improving. In the North, Tbeotelda and Eola ruled the roost at Durham, with Beldentone behind them twice, this "tom" being beaten at Catterick Bridge, when Per mission defeated Claxton, Ostentation, ice. • andrat Think the moderate Netthedge eclipsed both the Durham heroines by his defeat of Fele. There was a rich stake pro vided at the Epsom Spring Meeting to tempt those who were considered to powers chance of overthrowing Molly Carew : but the lot opposing her was not of the elan she defeated at Northampton, Diomed, Verbena, Tomfoolery, and Ackworth being the best of them, and she won with the greatest ease. Ackworth was considered to have been eecoseLbeet in the race, although enplaned, and his good looks made him a great favourite for the New Tiro Year Old Stakes on the second day, the beet performer moth his opponents being the blb-penaltied &arbeam, who figured so ingloriously as to detraot from the er,dile of everything that earned a reputation before the Northampton meeting. Ackworth did not do mach better, as he was but • bed third to two do:baronies, Breeze and the Phemy filly, who never afterwards per formed more than decently, sed made Ackworth's Derby friends appear very like lunation when they took 20 to 1 about him a month or two afterwards. Alabama made a respeetoble first appearance in the Walton Stakes, as it was something to his credit to beat Golden Dust over six tar bop; and astable companion, Rigolboche, made Garot ter gallop to win a Maiden Plate at Newmarket First Sprier, so that with Clairvoyente's triumph in the Craven week, Mr. Saviks youngsters were supposed to be of • better calibre than they eventually turned out. Garotter, in the Two-Year Old Plate, ran second to Evelina with his blb penalty, which was looked upon as good form for a roarer; bat the Ally won easily, and the performance only tended to show how moderate was thelot behind him, of which Rigolboche Lady Hylda, the half-trained Hone Marine, and Alabansi were the beat. At the York Spring Meeting, Tarlatan ex hibited an improvement by defeating Vanessa and Samosa forth. Zethind Stakes, it being her good fortune to have an advantage in cooditioa over both these, as Saragossa was palpably of the better clam, but no more fit than was the Cloth, when he in a handicap was beaten at two atone by the Cornet. At Salisbury we saw the first colt that proved his title to high honour in the Beaver, who very cleverly overthrew relics, Blackfnar, Verbena, Tomfoolery, Lady 'Williams, and others; anti King George also showed about the same form in another encounter, there being everything to regret in neither being in the Derby, for they are of so goods class as many of the present "cracks" for that mach coveted prise. (Intl:aria also made a successful first appearance hen, beating the promising Mulberry moose others, of which Seaboy was the best. There True ' dearth of youngsters at Chester, Persuasion proving of the best clew in the Morino, Although her slb penalty enabled Loafer to beat her by a head. Fisherman's Daughter jut beat Welbeck for the Biennial, her perform . thee not being considered a brilliant one, nor did any of the juveniles seen on the Rhoades take the talent by storm lentil the Doctor came out and won the Heaton Stakes. Although he beat nothing better than the Calliope colt and Virginia, he looked so much like racism and won with Beth ridiculous ease, that there was route a rush to get on him for the Derby, 1864, and he became a favourite at once, no one suspecting him to be the rogue he subeeqoeetly turned out. At Bath Crytheia, and Blackfriar verified the troth of their Salisbury running by finishing together for the biennial, the winner, Crytheis, being fortunate in meeting Teddy and Birchbroote when thither were ready, as the lest named must have won, his after performances being of a decidedly superior stamp. The Weston Stakes were coateeded for by a body equal in quality to the field, that ran for the Althorn) Park Stakes at Northampton and the Two Year Old Plate at New market, and one was found good enough to take the shine eat of Molly Carew in Light, the former's 51b. penalty causing her defeat by a head. Garotter was again in the frost rank, and Vanua was improving so rapidly es to get fourth place, Faith. I ',Toth. and Aunt Jody being unplaced; and as Faith in the same week beat a large field at Metha don, in, iodine Algarsife (brother to Canoe). No Nem* Black Deer, Lady Nichol, Attraction. sod Clairvoyant*, Molly Carew's defeat could not be attributed to any falling ell, her form being still the best out until the Emma Sommer Meeting was held. Here she was beaten half a length f"r the Woodeote at even weight., by Fills de "Air, and the French filly bee since proved herself to be decidedly the aeon :or of the two, although it is singular that Procella, who was n:any lengthy behind Molly Carew at Northamp ton, cliould run her to a head for ascend place. However, Pronlia may be better than she was ever given credit for, ad I observes be one of the lot premised to be " repur chased" by Lord Stamford after his "sell" at Newmarket on Thursday lot, when she was run up to la guineas. Behind the trio there were Engin, Cranbury, Alai:ems, Aunt Judy, Alcyone, War Dance, the Count. At. ; the three last named failing to run up to their good looks on this occasion ; still, the French lilly's reform:one was oreloubtetily a first-class the, and too good for her defeat by Midnight Main and Tomato, in the Two- Year Old Stakes the tame week to be believed genuine, even allowing then were on their favourite courses (half-a-mile) and she was eneumbered with a i,lb penalty. Starbeam, lady Nichol, and Golilylocks were unplaced in this com pany, the latter's uncertain temper causing her Mat to be a meet diegreeeful use ; and how the managed to get be tween Light and Tomato at Aleut has always been a mys tery. At Radc:iffe the Clown accomplished the first of his POLO) 'whiney. and in a style that did him every credit, neither the Pretty Cirl filly, Greenland (not half-fit), nor Wildman being goodenough to stretch his legs, and nothing of hie quality was to be observed at the more important Manchester meeting, where Fisherman's Daughter was in good form, haying beaten Syrco, the Calliope colt, Cutaway, Mantrap. Prc‘criptioo, &c., in one cese and in another run leseLend-head with P e r s u as i on and Limiter while meeting the pair with .11b the worst of the weight', which will make her after doings appear very strange. Prescription in a Nursery first proved herself useful, in certain company, her victory streogthening the idea of Fisharmaa's Daughter's excellence, and making her but little inferior to anything that performed up to the end of May, the lest juvenile race to that month taking place at Wye, which meeting was graced by the presence of the Beaver, Faith, sad Mulberry, the first-named insproviag on bb Salisbury form by running home the easiest of withers. But the 2-yr olds had been rasing from the 25th of February until the cad of Mn, without introducing to the wand anything better than Midnight Mass, Garotter.

THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 7, 1863. ASSIZE INTELLIGBNCE. HOME CIRCIIIT.—H =Troia) Die. 5. (Wore Mr. Justice Wil &mai Soggee. 48, a very revealable-looking man, scribed se a butler, was charged with stealing alarms quan tity of plate, valued at &WI., the property of the Roo. and Rev. William Chetwynd Talbot, his muter, and also with burglariouly breaking out of the premises of the prose cutor. - - - • - - - - This case occupied the court for more than eight hours. and waa not brought to • cooclusion until Dearly nine o'clock os Saturday night, land from the magnitude of the robbery and the position of the prisoner, it appeared to create • great deal of local interest. The circumetaticies also were some whatpecediar. lieprosecu toe, who is brother to the Tad of Shrewsbury and Tahoe, is the rector of Hatfield, sad resides at the rectory house in that town, and the prisoner at the time of the robbery had been fn his service for about two years se butler. The prosecutor mused to have • very cousiderable stock at plate, which was not only of greet Intrinsic value, but also derived additional worth from the fact that some of it bad been presented to him by the late Queen Dowager, and some by her present Majesty, =occasion of her steadies' pas:Aber to one of his t• and the whole of thiIIPIDDI TM, of course, plead is the charge of the prismear in his capacity of butler. The place of deposit of this valuable property was, how ever, undoubtedly, a very insecure one, for it was kept in • closet in the pantry, which was on the ground-floor with a window opening on • lawn ; so that nothing more was required than to lift up this window, sad at oft* swam was obtained to the pantry and to the plate cupboard. The property seemed to have bees safe on the evening of the 9th of November, and the family all retired at an early hour, and it was conjedused that the robbery, by whomsoever it was e ff ected, was com mitted about 11 o'clock at night, as at that time a noise was beard in the pantry, which was so doubt calmed by the removal of the plate, The prisoner appeared to be the first person who gave information of the robbery, for about half.past seven o clock on the following 0101113iti he went to his master and informed him that thieves had been in the house during the night, and that the whole of the plate was gone except a silver breed-basket, which he represented be had himself pinked up in the grounds, and which had been &opt,. d by the thieves in making their retreat. Th n eleirioner, it appeared, at the same time Mated that he had slept in the pantry, as it was his duty to have done, but in the housekeeper s room, and be admitted that the robbery had beam committed through his negligence in this respect. Immediately up= the robbery being discovered, Inspector English, and Hunt, two of the comity' constabulan. were sent for, and they examined the premises, and from the •that presented themselves, it appeared that tegr a c one s e came to the conclusion that the robbery was what is termed, in slang phraseology, • " put up" on. that is to say that it was committed with the connivance and usistance of some person within the house, and that no burglary was committed from the exterior, and suspicion fell epee the prisoner, and ha was taken into custody, and eventually committed for trial epos the present oberge. The evidence against him was, of coarse, entirely of a cir cumstantial character. It was urged in the first place that he had purposely abstained from sleeping in the pantry. where the plate was kept, in order to give his confederates an opportunity of entering the plasm and obtaining possession of the property undisturbed, sad it was also said, that although he was not in the room at the time the burglary was committed, still the place where he was sleepiog was close by, and he must have heard the noise that was heard by some of the other servants, who slept at a distant part of the house. Besides this, evidence was given that the gardener had occasion at as early hour on the morning of the 10th of November to pies by the spot where the prisoner represented that he bed picked up the silver bread-basket, which he mid the thieves had dropped, and at this time no such article was lying there, and it was also stated that, when the bread basket was produced, it was perfectly dry and clean, and did mat preasat any of the appearances that would have bola expected if it had lain out on the ground in the riper, air during a winter's night. In addition to this, there was evidence that certain footsteps wrest's) in a part of the grounds, very deeply marked, and as though they were made by • heavy man, or • person carrying some weighty subetanoe, and it appeared that these footsteps corresponded with the shoes worn by the pi:sober. There were several other minor facts proved in evidence, but the priori* potato that seemed to be relied upon in sup port of the charge against the prisoner were, that the robbery must have been committed with the assistance and connivance of acme pence upon the premises, and that he was the guilty party. A great many witnesses were examined on behalf of the prosecution, and they proved nearly the whole of the facts as above narrated. It transpired, however, in the course of crosemssminatioe, that two other servants had been discharged by the prosecutor ally a short time before the robbery, and that one of these servants was in the habit of leaving the house at night by means of this pantry window unkuowa to the family. It also appeared that, although the prisoner had undoubtedly bees guilty of a breach el duty M sleeping in what was called the holeekespet's room instead of the pantry, he had dove so for • considerable period before the robbery, and most of the persons connected with the household of the prosecutor were aware of the fact. It was likewise proved that shortly after the robbery a bag, containing • jemmy, • centre-bit, a dark leathern, and • chisel, was picked up near the rectory house, which had evi dently been thrown away by the thieves in their flight, as a quantity of the wooden handles of the plate apprised to have been wrenched off and thrown away near the same spot. Another important fact in favour of the prissier ego came out in the course of the inquiry, which was that • quantity of plate, valued at 2001., which was not in regakr use. and which was packed up in boxes in the same cupboard, had been left behind by the thieves. Mr. Woollett made a most able address to the jury in behalf of the prisoner, and he contended that • number of trivial circumstances, some of which had bran fully ex plained in the course of themes, bed teen strained to throw suspicion upon him, but be eortanded, that there was, I. reality , not a tittle of widows to support the charge that was made against him. He then proceeded to =that if the primmer was an accomplice in the Ey the parties who came down to effect it would have had no necessity to run the risk of Ibriuging house breaking tools with them, and that this fact showed that they were experienced thieves who, having by some mews or other obtained a knowledge of the unprotected cos& tion of the property, possessed themselves of it by opening the pantry window, and that there was nothing to show that the poisoner had anything whatever to do with the tranasetion. Hs also strongly urged upon the attention of the jury the fact of so large • quantity of plate being left behind, which, he conteeded, clearly showed the robbery had been effected by st rangers. Mr. Justice Williams having summed up the whole case with great care and mianiene,, thelluy, after a very short deliberation, found the prisoner Not Guilty. There was some slight applause in court when the verdict was delivered. Kato *mama. METROPOLITAN COUNTY COURTS. Sitting dap, appOsted for the roma week.

This was an action for injury sustsioed, both personal and otherwise. The defendants pleaded rot guilty. The plaintiff wee a cab proprietor and driver, and the injuries complained of arose from the alleged negligence of the defendants' nervants. The defendants, the learned ser , Mint said, appeared to be determined to have the monopoly of the streets, and on the Bth August last, about half-pad one o'clock, the defendants' bua was desirous of peening in High Holborn the Citizen, a rival 'bus. The horses were being driven very fast, and came in contact with the plain tilf'scb, which was upset, the horse injured, and the plain tiff wee thrown off the box, The plaintiff was seriously injured, and he was now suffering from the effects of the accident. . . . The evidence was of the usual contradictory character. The plaintiff's witnesses described the defendants' 'bus as going at the rate of 10 miles an hour, the driver making very free use of the whip, and that the Citizen 'bus was going the steady pace of six miles an hour. The driver of the Citizen saki his 'bus was full, and be did not can about driving fast. His fares were lower then the eieint:2l. He did not pull his 'bus acmes is front of the General's. He wu unable to say if the defendants' driver said to him after the accident that he bad pulled across him, and be replying he did not know he was behind. The roads were rather slippery at the time. The conductor said the defendants' driver was using the whip right and left, and springing his hones to peso the Citizen. He moved to the off monkey-beard, and asked the other conductor if bin driver was going to "crack up " the Citizen. Plaintiff was still unable to work, and his medial man had continued in attendence up to the present time. The defence was that the accident was caused by the. Citizen in pulling to the right to avoid the stones just as defendants 'bum was about to pans between the Citizen and the cab. Thare was no rung, sod the defendants' servants denied they were going at the pace deeerthed. They were not going more than seem miles an hour. The driver of the defendants' 'bus, in answer to a gamine from Yr. Gifford, mid therein' no competition between the 'buses. The Citizens were lower fares ; and • London General Omnibus would no won care for a Citizen than he would for • " wan." (laughter.) He told the Citizen driver belted does it purposely.

He never used • whip to hurt • horse i but the learned sergeant said that perhaps there might be • differenoe of opinion between him and the hone about that (Laughter.) The driver denied that he even tickled his horses that evening. (Laughter.) He called on the plaintiff after the accident with the secretary of "our own little accident club" to give him information or to give some remuneration to him if needed. The object of the club was to secure the driver against pecuniary lessee arising from damage to bores, from collision. The Lord Chief Justice—Then, in fact, it was an in genue against accidents.

Sittings at Nisi Prins in Middlesex.—(Before Mr. Julio, Bytes and • Special Jury.) THE DOWAGER LADS BLANTYRR V. THE 85. JAMES'S HOTEL CONPANT.—LOBB OF JEWILB IN AZ HOTEL. The plaintiff is this claimed to recover the value of some jewels, and also to recover an amount of money, which she had lost whiles a guest at the St. James's Hotel. The de (indents denied their liability, upon the ground that the plaintiff had given no notice to the manager of the hotel that she had with her the property in question, and that she did not take proper are of it. The plaintiff a counsel stated that lady Blantyre having come up to London for the mum in April last, went with her daughter, Mrs. Fanned, the wife of the M.P. for Devong art, to the St. James's Hotel, at the corner of Berkeley-square. The hotel was then not quite finished, but they agreed to take apartments in it when they should be fit to be occupied. In pursuance of this arrangement they co the Bth May took possession of the apartments, which consisted of a drawing-room, two bedrooms, a drew ing-room, and a dining.room oo the second floor. 'Mm rooms were en suite, with a door in each leading from one room into another. There was also a door leading from the passage labs each of the rooms. One b:droom was occupied by Lads Blantyre, and the other bedroom was occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Feuand. About seven o'clock on the 19th May, lady Blantyre dressed for dinner; sod bad occa sion to make use. of her dressing-ease, in which, amongst miler things. were her jewels and money. There was 57/. in money, and the jewels were worth 500/. or 6001., and consisted of a large diamond brooch worth 3201., a pair of diamond buckles for bracelets worth 611., a hoop diamond ring worth 301., an emerald mid dia. mood half.hoop ring 301., a diamond ring with a ruby in the centre 35L, a half-hoop river of small brillants 101., a ring containieg three dimmed@ and a pearl 101., an onyx, pearl. soddiamoedring 131., and an Indiaobandean with ruby eyes 181. The jewellery was thee safe in the dressi t -cue, which was locked and Oiud oo the drawers in the where it usually stood. Her ladyship retired to her br 1- roem between eleven and twelve at night, and she did not lock the doors, but placed a chair aghast that door which opened upon the outer passage. She rose next morning at half.past eight, and welt to breakfast at ten. She returned at eleven, and upon looking into her dreuieg-cess she found that her jewels and money were gooe. The dressing ease bad not the appearance of having been forced, and Lady Blantyre had the key. with some others, in her pocket. She immediately informed Mr. Farmed of her Ices, and he com municated with Mrs. Fraocatelli, the wife of the manger of the hotel, and afterwards the matter was placed in the hands of the police, but no clue' s was obtained to the robbery, and it still remained a mystery. Only one of the stolen notes had been traced as having Leen paid into the Bank. In eonelosion it was aummitted that the defendants were clearly liable, as Lady Blantyre bad taken as much care of her pro perty as if she had been in her own house ; and the law de clared that an innkeeper was liable for any loss which • guest stiffened while staying in has house. It was true that last session an act was passed limiting the liability of an inn keeper or hotel-keeper for lowa by • guest whilst staying in the boau unless notice were gives to him accord. tog to the provisions of the statute. The robbery io ques tion, however, took place previous to the passing of the statute. Lady Blantyre and Mr. J. M. Ferraod gave evidence in support of the shove statement, and the servants of both were also examined, on as to give them the opportunity of saving that they keew nothing of the robbery. Evidence was also given of the value of the jewels. Mr. Bovill 'then addressed the jury, contending that the defendants were not lia'ole, inasmuch as they Lad placed • notice in every room in the hotel which stated " The com pany do not hold themselves responsible for property left in the hotel unless placed in the special charge of the manager ;" andforther, became the property had been lost in consequence of lady Blantyre not having taken sufficient Mr. Justice Bytes, after some evidence had been given, summed up, and directed the jury that from the time of the llemans an innkeeper had been liable for the property of his guest ; but in this ease it was desirable that the jury should soy whether Lady Blantyre bad been guilty of neg ligence in not reading the notice ; the not locking her door ; or in not giving the property into the hands of the manager. The jury answered all these questions in favour of the plaintiff, and fixed their verdict for her—damages 584!. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. Dre. & (Before the Judge Ordinary.) CLAYTON f.

He told the prisoner he d.d not know how far be was telling the truth, when he referred to a gentleman in the City, who, he said, knew him. He sent one of his clerks with the pri soner to the gentleman, who said he knew the prisoner to be the eon of Mr. Robert &MOO. of Dundee. Upon that he lent him the 101., and sent both the letter and • receipt which the prisoner gave for the money to Dundee. and received a telegram that the letter was not a pinup° one, and by the next poet he received the letter and the receipt back. Upon that he obtained a warrant, and after the prisoner was appre hended be explained admire to see him, and on his going to him asked him to forgive him. He id to the prisoner, " Then you admit there is something to forgive," and uke d him whether he intended to bring his father and mother to greater grief by compelling them to come forward to prove the letter to be a forgery. The primmer said be admitted the letter was a forgery, sad desired to plead guilty.

Pierre 'Attain, a Frew:heath, about 40 years of age, whose bead and throat were enveloped in surgical headmen, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with attempting to stab several psrwus, and also with making an attempt to commit -destruction by cutting his throat with a knife. William Cowley, a watchman in the service of the Loudon Dock Company, stated that at half Test 3 o'clock on Wednesday, thedth of November, he saw the prisonerloiter ing about the dock for some time, and was about to re. move him, when the prisoner said in broken English, " You told them what I said to the captain." He replied, "No such thing ; I don't know you or the captain." The prisoner immediately drew a long clasp-knife, which was open, from his pocket end made a stab at him : and if he had not very quickly par ried it with his truncheon, the prisoner would have plunged Ilse knife into his body. The defendant continued stabbing at him, and he defended himself as well as hews. able with his stiok, and warded off the blows until Police-constable 238 K arrived. The prisons, fi nding himself likely to be overpowered, jumped from the quay on to a barge in the dock basin, and then made attempts to plunge the knife into his body, but it did not penetrate, although he struck himself six or seven times. 'The prisoner then drew the knife scram his throat, inflicting a terrible wound, and then with both hands "sawed away" at his throat, which WWI cut in a fearful manner, and the deck of the barge was covered with the blood which flowed from the wounds. A sailor jumped on to the barge, pulled the prisoner backwards and secured him. The prisoner wee then hoisted up by • enure, and removed to the London Hospital, where he was attended to. Mr. Munford, the superintendent of the St. Katharine Duck Company's own police, said that previous to the pti weer making the attempt on his own life he went on board • French ship, bound to (..len, in Normaody, and maid he dad escaped fr om Swansea Gaol and 100 polies constables were after Dim. The captain of the Preach ship would have nothing to do with the prisoner. Three proceedings were taken for the prisoner's own safety. If the magis trate would remand him he (Mr. Muoford) would call the attention of the French consul to the case, and have pri soner removed to France. Mr. Partridge said he would not let the prisoner go. He must commit him for trial for the offence he had committed. He should remand the prisoner at present until Tuesday for the completion of the depositions. POISONING IN LEICESTERSHIRE. The inhabitants of the usually quiet village of Waltham have bees thrown into a state of excitetoeut owing to the death, it is alleged through poison, of Mrs. Emma Hutchins, of the Hone Shoe Inn. The husband, who is sus pected, was taken into custody on Thursday by the On Friday an inquest was held, at the Horse Shoe Inn, on the body, before Mr. Clarke, sooner. Sarah Hornbuckle deposed—l was called upon Thursday morning at fear o'clock to see Mrs. Hutchins, and found her sitting on a sofa in the top room. She complained of being very bad, andsaid, " I have taken something which I thought was magnesia, and it tasted like copperas. ' I said, " What ever did you take it for ?" She replied "Ha (meaning her husband) stood over me, and made me take it. Before I did so he told me it was magnesia, and after I had taken it he said it was arsenic." I then meat for Mr. J. IL Morgan, the surgeon. He arrived about five o'clock. With the exception of a few minutes I remained with the deceased until she died. Her death took place about 10 o'clock on Thursday morning. She told me that she lath the stuff between twelve and half-put She was quits sensible taU about nine o'clock. She complained of cramp. I put her to bed. She had taken warm water, and also mustard and water, to act as an emetic before I saw her. Mr. Horgan gave her some medicine, which purged her but did not make her sick. She complained of being very thirsty. I did not see Mr. Hutchins whilst she was alive. Jane Caitlin, a labourer's wife, gave confirmatory testi mony. She declared Mr. Hatthins was in liquor at the time, but that Mrs. Hutchins was sober. Mary Ann Lovett, a letter-carrier's wife, deposed—l was fetched at 8 o'clock on Thursday morning to see Mrs. Hutchins. I went up shin to her, and said, "You are very bad ; what is the matter ? What hurts you I" She put her hand to her throat, and said, " It's all here." I asked if she bad been sick, end she said," Yes, many times." We then heard Mr. Hutchins shouting very much in his ow a room. She raid, " Doe% let him oome in ; you go to him." He was more like • madman than anything. He wu out of bed, in his shirt, and wanted to fight. He would have his clothes to draw. We gave him the stock ings that were lying by. Ha said that they were not his. He partly dreamed himself, and then said, " What o'clock is it Y" I told him a little after 8. He said. "Is it night, or is it morning'." I said, • little after eight in the morn ing; do get into bed. We sainted him there, and he "settled dower," and we left him. I west to Mrs. Hutchins again, saw she was worse, and raid, "Shall we telegraph for your nen ?" She replied," I wish you would." I left about 20 minutes put nine, and on returning in a quarter of en hour found her insensible. She died • few minutes before 10. When 'first went iota the house—and before going upstairs— the deoeued's son John called me into the bar, saying, "Look here" (pointing to some white powder ma the shelf, which I scraped together, sod gave to Mr. Morgan, the surgeon.) Mrs. Hutchins complained of her husband's ill treatment, and said, " You need not wonder at any one destroying themselves." She was in bed on Monday all day, when she made that remark, and begged that I would not tell her husband where she was. Mr. Hutchins demanded to know where Emma, his wife, was, and on being told that she was ill, and safe io bed, asked " if she would like to see him," I said, " she would if you are quiet." He domed very much upon that, but got quiet, and went to her room. On Monday Mrs. Hutchins showed me bruises en her body, which she said her husband had caulled. I rubbed them with laudanum. Mr. Hutchins was very fresh on Monday, and bad been so for some time. On Wednesday night, between seven and eight o'clock, as I wse coining away, the deceased said " Ob, Mrs. Lovett, you must not have me to-night ; I dare not be with muter alone." I " You know what he is if anyone offers to stay with you ; we shall see how be is by bedtime." Mr. Hutchins had that evening been in the stable and laid raider the manger about • quarter of an hour. About ten o'clock he said to his wife, " Let us go to bed and die, Emma." She said " I do not want to die to night" He added, "But I do. I should like to die to night." She said, "No, you would not, if it came to the pant." He was so drum that he could scarcely mod, and he expressed a wish to die. He has never been sober for the last fortnight Police-constable Pole said—The Rev. G. E. Gillett came to my house about half-past ten oe Thursday morning, and told me that Mrs. Hutchins was dead, and requested me to follow him. We found Mr. Hutchins in bed, and wired him if he knew his wife was dead. He answered " It she is dead, she is poisoned." Mr. Gillett asked him who poisoned her. He made no reply. Mr. J. H. Morgan, surgeon, detailed the circumstances connected with kis visit, which are principally given above. On a post-mortem examination being made, the viscera was found to be strongly congested, and indicative of in flammatory actioo. Whether it might arise from tabula disease or an irritant poison, nothing but an analysis of those orpas weld determine. Mr. Bemis, surgeon, of Melton Mowbray, was of opinion that the &sib was caused by iallanimatiou of the stomach and bowels, and that there ware such appearances in would preessit themselves co the administratiou of an itvitaet poises. The stoinaeb, with rectum, and a portion of the small intestines, and a larE to a rortion of the liver, were t moved by Mr. Moises for yes. The inquest was sidned until Tuesday, the 15th last., in ceder that se a n of the emiteets of the demi& might be made. THE MYSTERIOUS DEATH AT BRIGHTON. -- • On Saturday the adjourned invest as to this mysterious case was resumed at the White Here, Rotting dean, before Mr. F. H. Gill, coroner for East &rex. The object of the adjournment was to ascertain what had be come of deceased between the Bth at November, when Mr. Louis Adolphus, with whom she was connected, stades that he bid bar good bye at the Leedom-bridge station, and the 25th, when her body was found in the sea. The inspector of police bad no evidence to praises on this poet. Dr. Noakes said he bed made a further examina tion of the body, and found no fractures or en trant, marks of violence, but there were bruises oesseional by contact with the rocks, which he believed to have been occasioned after death. The body wee so fresh that he did sot think it had bees is the water twisty-four hount—oertainly sot from the 9th to the 25th.—Elisabeth IY. of 2, Quota's-road, Camden-town, said deceased lodiW with bar three yams ego, and recently one .oath, up to the day in question, the Bth November. A Captain Bruce, whom she rased off as her husband, called for her in a cab, and alas left the house with him, sod subsequently her Inepge (a large packingosse, a trunk, and small boxes) was amt for. She knew Captain Bruce when she saw him, and mid she had that morning seen bin enter the White Horse Hotel.

Wit nese replied, " Then don't go with him," sad she said " must & oa t photograph permed was identified OA that of " " She had seen Captain Brom three years before, when deceased was lodging in Cambridge terrooe, and knew it to be the same man. Had beard decried say that a pesos named Lewis, who was some- thing in the City, had pasemion of three kw boxes of hors containing valuable property. Deceased always celled herself Mrs. Bruce, and spoke of " Orrin Bruce" as bar husband, sod used to go oboe • week to Forest hill to see her child, which she said was with his family. Julie Weymouth, of 9, Camden Cottages, had known decreed for some years, and air Mr. Bruce, sad knew de ceased was not married to him. Mr. Adolphus had also I called at her hors to see deceased three or four times. Witors also said that Mr. Adolphus and Mr. Bruce were not one and the same person, and on seeing the memo photograph which the previous "Boor had sworn was that ut Mr. Bruce, she declared the likeness was that of Mr. Adolphus, and not of Captain Brum. She saw demur on the morning of the Bth instant in her usual cheerful spirits. Maria Pratt, demur's sifter, who lives at York, said that in a letter she received from deceased, dated the Bth of No- vember, she stated that " Mr. Adolphus had taken her away from her lodgings, and she had nowhere top to but to stay with him." It was dated from the Great Northern Hotel. Her sister always spoke kindly of Mr. Adoltu4. She had men both Mr. Bros sad Mr. Adolphus. Were two distinct persons.

Last week prices were recovering from the shock caused by the raising of the minimum rate of discount to G per cent., and on Monda y re the was a large busbies' in all descriptions of yarn at . to Id. per lb. advance on the rates of three days previou y. Spinners took some heavy contracts at this idyllic*. Mann. factures were also enabled to do business at about the highest rates yecquoted in this market. On Tuesday theme. fidesce which had led to them transactions rapidly gave way, under the apprehension of a further rise in dimwits ; scarcely anything could be done, and the advance in money to 8 par cent. seems for the present to have completely paralysed business. Cotton having fallen lid. to 2d. per lb. at Liverpool, a decline in yarns has taken place. Sellers of shipping yarns report the average decline at 2d. per lb., with no buyers. The sellers of cloth would be willing to make a concession if there were any buyers, but still they show more firmness than prevails in the yarn market.

The button trade continues dull, not having rallied is the slightest degree all through the autumn; amongst the jewellers and int some ' the old staple trades slackness is also felt to some extent, but the exceptions to the general condition of burn ! nese her. are unimportant, as is shown by the very limited amount of unemployedlabour. From the adjoining district of South Staffordshire and Fast Worceetershire ,. t , ll c r i yorts axe not less satisfactory ; the casting trade especially is good, and the foundries are well engaged. At est Brom wich, Darlaston, Wedneebury, end Walsall, there is • good amount of business doing in the various branches carried on in those towns.
