See was not to annoy their neighbours, the plaintiff% or anody else ; on the contrary, it would give them rain to so,du and be appeared now on the behalf of the .1.1. colabt to deny khat there had been any nuisance erected, or that there had been any infringement of the leer, lie intact cooks. that he did feel some once. ty, lowe TVT, o. to the result, when he recollected the exeffeint rat that hail pre vailed during the last kw mouth upon the InOtiee t of the p wending% that bad been adopted by the Homan c atholic body, because be knew that a pod deal of prejudice must very naturelly be excited. Ile did not, howevet, believe that twelve hnitlieh gentlemen could be found ID say that they red that those sets which WNW believed to be necessary by the el. b admits for properly and decorously carrying out the eels 144111a14 of their re ligion amounted to a nuisance, and he hoped they would nut be led away by the excitement that had been created upon the subject to which he had alluded, to come to such a conclusion. The question which they had to decide was whether the existence of a nuisance hid been proved ? Ile should submit with great confidence that it had not. The mere fact of ringing a bell, or a peal of hells, once a day, or several times • day if they pleased, was not enough to constitute a nuisance. It m:ght be very annoying to a person of nervous temperament, but that did not enn stitate a nuisance in the eye of the law. The law very properly anti sensibly did not take cogsi sauce tit trifles, for if it did there would be no end to actions of this tort, and, in order to make out a charge of nuisance it was necessary to prove that the complaining party was permanently disturbed sad obstructed in the occupation of his dwelling-house. This was the very first occasion he ha I ever heard of where the bells of a church were sought to be made out a nuisance. Ever eine? the establishment of Christianity , bells had been rung in their churches, and he could not help saying that it appeared to him a very extraordinary proceeding to h.. taken in the nineteenth century to attempt to show that the ringing of church bells was a nuisance. The learned counsel then alluded to the circum stances connected with the action, and commented upon the fact that although the nuisance was al b ged to have commence.' in 'SIB no proceedings were taken until the ; present )ear, and he ',wet:steel that the action was in all Kele:Ability the result of the excitement that kid been produced by the recent proceedings that had been alluded to. Ile did not wish to throw any blame upon the plaintiff for the proceeding be had taken. Ile had no doubt that he aloo perfectly sineere, but he was fearful that religious feeling. had been the instigation of the present action, and that if these hells had not belonged to a Itoman citholic place of worship the action would never have been heard of. The religious disputes that had recently taken place were much to be regretted. They bad given rise to speeches and writing. exhibiting most gross bigotry, and be felt assured from the of muter of any of the gentlemen by whom titter speeches had been made, that in their coulee momenta they must have deeply regretted them. The plaiutilf was no excep tion to the rub, and he bulb Ted that he hail been led away by has feelings to countenance the present prorcoding. The jury, however, would have to decide the question. ass reed eantitiently that no nuisance had been pros. el to exist, and lie believed that when they considered the case ate ntively. and apart from all exciting religious topics, aha I. ought nut to have any weight at all with them, tbey would he of the Mine opinion, and that they would say NO by their verdict. The Chef Justice then summed up. lie said that the nal questions at issue between the parties were very short as I simple. The, case was one of very great importance, and, speaking for himself, be would say that he. deeply regr. twit it had ever been brought into court, because it appeo..l to hint to involve neatters of a eliaraeter that ought never to lie introduced into a court of justice. lie felt assured, however, that the jury would perform their duty . spurtfrom all n:ligiou e feelings, and that the y would nut allow any prejudices to prevail, vu as to induce them to return a verd.et that was nut warranted by the facts of the case. It had always been their Insist in this part of the kingdom at all events that the jury-box was in,• from all religious sir party spirit, and it would bs a melancholy thug indeed if in any case a jury should c.o.e to such a derision a would lead to the infer ence that they w e re influenced by such feelings we those to which he had alluded, and i• would tend greatly to shake the conk.', site that existed in the pure administration of justice at the hands of a jury. lie would now tell them what in his opinion the law was with regard to the 41wa tt/el In ter them; and if he was %rung in that ' terpretation 01 the law, he could be set right in number plan.. First, with regard to the right of using bells at all. Ily the common lase, churches of i.v. ry denomination had a full right to use au'i it was a vulgar error to suppose that there was any Jutaucuou at the pri,Viit time in this respect.

This incensed the prisoner, who insisted that his mother should give him up a bed which he claimed se the gill of hi. father.

Septintw l'ruen held the of of corout r for the Cheltenham district of the county of Gloucester. This CANe was rapected to be the Ca* • of the assizes, and to hale occupied three or four days iu the hcariug. It excited the most inten.v interest, as it deeply insole, a the privileges of the freeholders of the county in voting at elections for coroners. The public. howevt r. were much disappointed, the defendaht having most urtexpezteilly withdrawu his plea. The circumstances are us follow : About this time last year the office of coroner for the Chel tenham district became vacant by the death of a gentle- Man named Cooke, who had held it for many years. 1. 7 p0n this two candidates were proposed—Mr. Lovegrove, of Gloucester, and Mr. Pruen, of Cheltenham, both solicitors, and the former being a conservative, and the tat ter a liberal in polities. In fact, the election was in the end made quite a politic done. A third candidate was proposed in the person of a Mr. Smith, a surgeon, but he only pulled these votes. There were two days' pull. On the first day Mr. Lovegrove secured a majority of about 8U votes. but this, on the second and last polling day, was converted by Mr. from intoa majority of 30 in his fawar. The mode in which ibis was done, was the matter for in quiry. It was alleged that on the Right following the first pulling day, Mr. Preen's agents engaged a number of men—chiefly members of a mechanics iustitute, and after going through certain forinalarim'these men were, on pay ment of a fee of 61 each, enrolled as freeholders in re spect of a certain house in Itegent-street, Cheltenham, and that neat ,morning these men polled for Mr. Prima, and took the freeholders' oath. The question scut down for trial here was therefore to test the validity of these votes so polled. It was intimated, however, that Mr. Pruen hael taken out a summons, to show cause why he alsonldjaot withdraw his plea. This will lead to the with drawal of the plea, the ousting of air.

Jolts Williams deposed that oa the 30tb June, 1845, the primer was married to one Ann Pitt, at holy Trinity Church, la the parish of St. Philip and St. James, Bristol. Elisabeth Beck, the prisoner's second wife, deposed that i he married her at 'temple Church, Bristol, in lhcembar I last. She had heard he was a married Man, but understood that his wife had two husbands , and that, therefore, he was at liberty to marry a second wit's. Anotlir witness corrule.rated the fact of the second near riage, and a constable proved a statement by the prisoner to the effect, that he should not have married Beek, but that his first wife, Pitt, was a bad one. This the prisoner now repeated ou his trial, and added that Pitt ill treated his mother. The jury found that the prisoner was Guilty, but that he was obliged to get married a second time in consequence of the bad conduct of his first wife. (Shouts of laughter.) Sentence six weeks' imprisonment. FORGERY OF THE. NAME OF LOUD VILLIERS. James Adams and lilizabtls Williams were indicted for forging and uttering an order for the delivery of goods, pur porting to be signed by Lord Villiers, with intent to defraud John Lane, of Cirencester. Mr. Lane, a grocer, living at Crieklade-street, Cirencester, proved that on the 23rd of May last he received a letter, purporting to be signed by Lord Villiers, ordering him to send a rile of bacon, as good as he caul,' obtain, to his house in Manchester-square. lie sent off the bacon on the fol lowing day, and also • letter advising the timo of its arrival. Lord Villiers deposed that this letter was not written by him or by his authority, and that his steward had no in structions to order articles for him. Thomas Treneley, an innkeeper at Cricklade, deposed that he had seen the prisoner write, and believed the letter produced to be his handwriting. Cross-examined—lt may be once or twice that he had seen the prisoner write. Edwin Decade, one of the county police, in whose cus tody the prisoner hail been, stated that he saw him write when in his charge, and that he believed from this the order to he in his handwriting. Hobert Fisher, who lived at 40, North-street, Manches ter-opiate (the next house to that to which the prisoner had ordered the good to be sent), stated that the prisoner came to him and asked him to take in any goods that might be sent there in the name of " Villiers." lie called again in the evening of that day to see if any parcels had come. A letter, which was not taken in, came on the Saturday. Adams said the parcels would contain a side of bacon and a gold watch and chain, and that he used the name of " Vil . hers" because he did not want the old man (meaning his father) to know where ho was. On the Friday Williams came and asked if any parcels had come addressed to " Lord Villiers." On the Saturday the Great Western Company's parcel van brought a side of bacon to No. 41, but it was not delivered. Edwin and Mary Parker, at whose house the prisoners were apprshended, deposed that on the 27th May Adams came to borrow some money to pay for a parcel of bacon which had come for him by the railway. Smith, of the L ,nden detective force, stated that when he apprehended Adams ha denied that that was his name ; and that the filuale prisoner said to Adams, " You know, James, you wrote those letters, and you tent me for theta things. You told me they were coming from your father." Boolds, who was present at the arrest, was recalled and stated that when in enatody Williams was crying, and Adams said, • Dont cry ; all will be right," she replied, "you know 1 told you all :dung not to write those letters. You tald me your father would put it right, if it cost a thousand pounds." lie exhorted her to be firm, as they knew nothing about the letters. This conversation took place iu broken French, and Mr. Illuddleston insisted on the officer re penting it in that language. Phis was the case ter the prosecution. The learned judge said there was no evidence against SS illiams. Mr. Iludilleston then addressed the jury on behalf of Adams. Adams was found Guilty. Fifteen years' transportation. Williams Nat Guilty. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—LANcAsiEn, AUG. 12. ALLEOED AISSTRACTION or A WUIT, Mr. Baron Platt was occupied nearly the whole of to-day in investigating a missl,meanour, in which !vulg.' !macs, en attorneys clerk, practising in the Insolvent Court at Lan caster, was involved under the 7 it 8 Geo. IV., c. 2'J, s. 21, for having fraudulently taken from its place of deposit for the time beinr, a certain original document, to wit, a cer tain warrant issued upon a writ of sepias ad satisfaciendam. Other counts in the indictment charged the defendant with having conspired with Thomas Win. Berry and Sarah Ann Fowler to defeat the objects of the execution of the writ. In January, 11450, Messrs. Eveleigh and Sons, hat manu facturers of Salford, obtained a judgment in the Salford Conn of Record against a lady named Sarah Ann Fowler for a debt of 40/. and 121. is. oats, which had arisen on certain bills of exchange of which Miss Fowler was the drawer, and wldeli were accepted by a person of the name of Berry, ter brother in-law. Berry, at the tune the action was brought, was in the Castle at Lancaster, also at the suit of Messrs. Eveleigh, and was about to take the preparatory steps to obtain the benefit of the act. Miss Fowler acconi pauied her sister and brother-in-law to Lancaster, and having then passed out of the jurisdiction of the Salford court, it was necessary that the judgment obtained agaiiat her should he removed into the Common Pleas at Lancaster, and that step was taken on the 18th of February, Iti.lo. On the following day, execution issued from the sheriffs' office at Preston, and a warrant directed for service to an officer named George Parker, who at the time was engaged on some temporary badness at Line:ester. It was despatched by train with the address, " Mr. George Parker, sheriffs' "Mier, care of Mr. Isaacs, George and Dragon, Lancaster," and all. 41140,1 to the defendant as being the readiest means of its finding he destination. he defendant, Isaacs, was an attorneys clerk who has been engaged iu conducting insolvency eases fur a number of years, od, as it appeared, was preparing the schedule of Berry, and, of course, would be familiar with the family affairs, and of the action against Miss Fowler. The parcel was delivered at the George and Dragon, Mal during the came evening, a gentleman named Rusting, a clerk with Mr. Faulkner, of Manchester, the attorney for Mews. Eveleigh. was despatched to Lancaster to watch the elocution of the writ of ca sr against Miss bowler. Fpon his arrival, lie learnt tie it Parker had re tinned to Preston, and he, therefore, called at the George and Dragon, in order to see Isaacs, and demand back the parcel. On the following morning, the defendant called at his lodgings, and chewed him the parcel in which the warrant wan eimtained, but lie refused to give it up to him, alleging that he did not know who he was. gosling offered to metimpany him to a solicitor in the town, and convince him that he had a right to the lured, but the defendant refused to do so. This interview tiaik place about a quarter before eight in the morning. On leaving him the sleteuibuit went dint to the Castle, and making his way to Berry's room, he asked if any one was in the rool4l. berry replied in the negative, when Isaacs pulled out of his pocket the parcel in question, opened it, and took out the writ, saying, Br G—, here's a writ for your sister." A consultabou took lilace between the parties, and the defendant's advice was taken, and Miss Fowler instructed to walk to a station about three miles uut of the town, and take the train to Kendal, out of the jurisdiction of the court. The object of the execution was therefore entirely defeated, and fur 15 months Messrs. Eveleigh were unable to get hold of Miss Fowler. This was the offence laid down in the indictment. The warrant was subse quently returned by Isaacs to another sheriff's officer, who received instructions from the shelitri officer at Preston to go and demand it. The witness Berry was subjected to a severe crow examination by Mr. Serjeant Wilkins, with the view of showing that the prosecution hail been originated from siudictive motives by an attorney practising in the Ins& vent Coon. Berry wan also obliged to admit that he had left several situations as commercial traveller from a defi ciency in his accounts, and that his character had nut been of the must immaculate description. Ilia Lordship decided that the warrant while in transitu could not be considered iu a place of deposit, and that there was no evidence of a conspiracy proved. he defend:nit was therefore acquitted by direction of his Lordship. This was the only case of interest occupying the court, and it terminated the criminal business of the anises. NORTH WALES CIRCUIT.-CUESTER, AEG. 12. Nara nu , • Corm—Banns Ma. 'vim' Wscrrx... r. ralltorNALL.—BiteAvir OF I . lloXtbi OF MARILIAUIL This was an action to mover compensation in daraages Incfora breach of promise of marriage. Ihe defendant pleaded first, that it was agreed the plaintiff and defendant should be ma. ried when the latter was able to set up in busineaa, but that he had never been iu a condition to perform the promise; and neat. that they had mutually agreed to waive the promise. Mr. Evans stated the ease—The plaintiff was Miss Anne Artninal Reddish, the daughter of a cora dealer at Stock port, and the defendant, a draper, residing in the same town. The action was brought to recover compensation in damages for one of the most serious injuries which could be received. It was one of the moat critical periods in the life of a female ' and deserved the careful and serious consideration of the jury iu dealing out to the Tunics , that justice which they sought ut 'their hands. the defendant was hy. no means an ignorant man, as the letters he should put in would show, but pros leased to be a man of high moral character, and of strict religious feeling and piety ; but instead of acting la laccordance with those principles, he had treated her with cold calculating heartlessness, in order that he might gain • little more money by marrying another woman. In I the defendant first became acquainted with the plaintiff. Ile was at that time an assistant with a Mr. Driukwatcr, a large draper in the same town. The defendant was at first struck with hcr, and became a frequent visitor M her father's house, o much so that it led to observation at the part of Mr. Driukwater ; but on that gentleman learn ing the, muse of those visits, he made no objection. In the I year 1843, a correspondence commenced between the par ' ties, which continued until July, 1348, when he went London, where he rest with his present wife, unfortunately for the happiness of the plaintiff. A letter, written by the defendant to the plaintiff, dated March, 1343, appeared to be a reply to one from the plaintiff, in which she had core ' plainedof being addressed u " madam." He began the letter, Dear Ann—First and foremost I beg pardon for the formal word madam. It is a word we ott.m is-a: in business. D o, if you pl ease , excuse m..'—you know what sort of a I blundering fellow I em," and so on, ending with terms of affection. In 184,3 the defendant Wrote from the Isle of Man, in which be described the krnery of the place nod recommended her to go to Matlock for the benefit of her health. The learned counsel then read a number of letters which had passed between the plaiatiff and the defendant, the last of which was dated in July, 1848, which was very lengthy, and contained an account of his visit, •ad is which be stated tint be had seen Prince Albert, that he stood near the royal carriage, took off his hat, and had the honour of a ' , cranial move fro:a Isis Royal Ilighu,s. After that visit the conduct of the defendant became cool awards the plaintiff, and at length he married another. No amount of deranges would r. pair the injury which the defendant bad inflicted upon the plaintiff. Nt hen the courtship be gan she was '26 years of age. It had continued fur fire years, and when she had a right to suppose she was about to settle in life, her prospects had been blighted, and he therefore called upon the jury to give ample damages. A number of letters which had passed between the parties were then put in, amongst which were the following : August 18, 1841—My dear William,-1 arrived quite las at my journey's end. It was very pleasant travelling awd a beautiful day indeed, how could it be otherwise I When I was coming to Derbyshire I rested the first night, and the next day I and my friends went to Matlock Bath. We went to look at the baths, and then sat in a beautiful alcove with a marble fountain just opposite, that throws up water more than a yard high, and glasses placed for the company to drink, Then we walked down the parade, and went into Adam's Museum. I was very much pleased with it, and should have enjoyed it much more if you had been with us to have shared in the pleasures. 1 have not la:en on the river yet, there are some beautiful lor:ra' walks on the opposite side, and I intend to go if I am without my lore. We went to Cromford on Saturday, being market day, to see the stirrings there, and we saw Wellersley Castle, Mr. Peter Arkwright's seat—it is a pretty place— and on Sunday wo went to Mr. Arkwright's church. We should have gone to Matlock Bath to-day, but we have had so much rain and thunder that it has prevented no, Mai I expect • letter towards Saturday, as I shall be at Matlock till the week's end: Please to direct to me at Miss Spencer's. Lime Tree-lane, Miftlock. With kindest lore, believe as to remain, yours sincerely, ANNI. August IS, 18 case all mistakes, for you little think how much I at engaged. Stockport, August 21, Thursday Evening, 9 o'clock. My dear Anne,—lt is to sae • source of great satiskrO don to know something of you during this temporary sepias ration. I hasten to acknowledge your affectionate letter, which I received at a quarter to ten o'clock. After waiting a whole day, I had indulged the idea of perhaps receiving • letter from you on the evening of Tuesday, and felt sere it could not be later than Wednesday morning, which brought me no letter from Matloce—fancy my disappoints meat. I am glad you had a pleasant juumey and arrived safe ; you were I am sure favoured with a fine day, and no doubt your friends were most anxiously waiting your arrival. A week has now paused away since you left Stock port; it seems a very long one. I am really sorry the weather is so very unfavourable for you. These weather wise folks say we are going to have very fine weather soon. I hope so. You seem to be enjoying yourself, fur which I am glad. You say you hare been at Wellersley Castle. I have this nfternoon been looking over the map of Derbyshire, and there Well it. Cromford, Lea, Matlock Bath, and all those places. I wish I could join you in those rambles and walks—my heart attends you thraugh a.l changes On Sunday afternoon I went to Cheadle liulme, and in the evening called in at your good folk s in 'Litigate. I have also called in this afternoon on passing that way. I only saw Martha and your mother—of course I asked if they had heard anything of • Anne.' I there learned something more of your proceelings in Derbyshire. Martha had re ceived a letter from Miss T., who left you in bed on Monday learning—. is this correct i"They were all well. Oa Saturday afternoon last I wrote to Sidney and Mary and Samuel, and yesterday morning I received a letter from Samuel. lie says they ore all well ; he is glad you are gone to Matlock. I trust you arc now reconciled respecting the trouble you had a few slays prey ions to your journey. I know it disturbed you, and it had its equal effect on me. I purpose taking tea with your good folks on Sunday (if all is well). Now don't think any more about the disturbance, but forget it. Take care of your health—l should suppose you will bathe at Matlock—l think I should, you know that. My dear Anne, I often reflect (and with pleasure) upon my first interview with you—more particularly my first iinpression, as marking that critical period of my life on which so much depends. We are, 1 trust, convinced that our happiness depends in a great measure upon our mutual conduct, and I cans estly pray God g:ve us his blessing. I have this aftenitain been to see my friend Mr. 11. ; he is much worse and fast hastening to another world ; and it is a great c omfort and consolation to his family and friends that ko is not a stranger to religion. I must now conclude, and say good night. The box, I see, chars at a quarter to 10 a.m., so that I shall past this in the morning. I think you will get it about Saturday morning.—Believe me to remain, yours faithfully and affectionately, WILLIV4. P.S.—I shall expect to hear from you again soon. I know you are engaged, but spare me a line or two, and don't be long. When do you think of returning—don't be in a hurry, for I am sure it will do you good ; and when you do return, I shall expect to see a decided change for the better. Matters are going on well at home, so far as they are concerned. I have called several times since you left—there appears to me something short. Good nis . iht, accept my kindest love, with kind regards to your friends, if you please.-1 am, truly yours, W. P. Mr. George Winliwater stated that the defendant was his asprentiee, and in his service about 12 years. In 111 I he found out that ho was a frequent visitor at the house of the plaintiff's father, and, on inquiry, witness understood that the object of his visits was to pay his addresses to the plain tiff, knowing the parties, he did not object. The defendant left witness in WO, and began business fur himself in I Stockport. Ile had saved, during his service with wit ness, 200 i. Mary Reddish, mother of the plaintiff, said that she had known the defendant about eight years. Shortly after he hetaine acquainted with her slaughter he paid great atten tion to her, and used to come twice a week or oftener. They were frequently alone together, and ho appeared to be courting her. The visits continued until l)ecrmber, 1149. and in March, lain, he was marries'. At the latter end of the summer of ISIS. after the defendant had been to Lon don, he became more cool towards her daughter. The plaintiff appeared to he in low spirits, and witness one Sun day evening asked the defendant whether anything was the matter between them. Ile replied "Nothing." The plain tiff replied, "Oh, Walnuts, I expected we should have been married before now, and now you say you will not Ise in a condition to marry tor four or tire years to come." Witness said to the sit:haul:int, " You have sisters of your own, and would you like them to be treated in that manner ?" The defendant replied, " I know I have done wrong," and then the family came in and nothing more passed. After that his visits became less frequent, and meet' altogether in Deeember, 1119. In cross-examination the witness said she had five daughters. The age of the plaintiff was 31 or 35. Samuel Reddish, brother of the plaintiff, and clerk to Messrs. Wignall, cotton brokers, Liverpool, deposed to meeting the plaintiff and defendant in 1541 in Liverpool. They came together ou Saturday evening, and returned on Sunday. They appeared as if keeping company together. In 1116 they were together again in Liverpool, and had hero at Stockport with them. The defendant was treated by the family as an accepted suitor. On his return from London told the defendant that he had heard he was pay ing his addresses to a Miss Watkins, of Macclesfield. Ile denied it, and witness told him that if it was so proceedings would be taken against him, for he had visited the house as a BMWs. lie said he had done wrung, and had acted very .... unwisely. . Mary Turner, the wife of a cotton broker in Liverpool, and sister to the plaintiff, was next called. She deposed to the defendant visiting the plaintiff at her house and appear ing on affectionate terms, She was shown a Bible which hail been given to her sister, end in which the defendant had written the name of the plaintiff. She had also a profile of his in her possession. This closed the case for the plaintiff. Mr. Serjeant Jones contended that there was no evidence on which to go to the jury, The declaration stated that the defendant had promised to marry the plaintiff within a rea sonable time after he should be in a capacity to set up in business. There was no evidence to show that such a pro mise had been made. Hi, Lordship thought there was evidence to go to the jury. Mr. Serjeant Jones—Your lordship sees the promise is laid specially. His Lordship said the question would be whether the jury would inter from the evidence that a promise hail been made by the defendant, and if so, Whether it was within the period when he was able to perform it. Mr. Serjeant Jones then addressed the jury on the part of the defendant, contending that there was nut sufficient evidence to satisfy the jury that any promise whatever had been made. It was for the plaintiff to put that question before the jury beyond all reasonable doubt ; but it was abundantly clear that no promise had been given; but if the jury were of opinion that such • contract had been entered into, it was fur them to say whether it had not been agreed between the ponies to give it up. So far from the defend tat having acted with cold, calculating indifference. according to the evidence he had acted just the contrary. Ills conduct, even according to the evidence of the plaintiff, was as high as it could be. lie then proceeded to contend that there was no evidence to satisfy the jury that any promise whatever had been made by the defen dant, but it was clear the plaintiff, being nearly seven years older than the defendant, was the party seeking the con nexion. Even, however, if the jury were of opinion that there wet a promise, and that it hail been broken by the defendant, the smallest amount of damages would satisfy the justice of the case. Hu Lordship in summing up the case left it to the jury to say whether the evidence was sufficient to warrant them in coming to the reasonable conclusion that a promise had been made to the plaintff. The jury, after consulting together a few minutes, re. turned a verdict for the plaintiff—Diunages 201. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-HOUSE. Thomas BertAmore, aged 72, and James Megg, aged 68, persons haviog the appearance of labouring farm servant*, were brought before Mr. Alderman Moon, under the fol lowing circumstances ' Alderman Sir Robert Walter Carden was present during the hearing of the caw. Charles Clarke, officer of the London Bridge-wharf, said, at half-past 11 o'clock this morning, the Albion steamer, trading between London and Boulogne, arrived at London Bridge-wharf. From what was told to me by Mr. Cur worth, of Fish-street-hill, who was a passenger, I took the two defendants into custody, and brought them here. I said to ttem—" Do you know St. Alhan's ?" and they b o th re plied that they did. I then asked them to accompany me to the Mansion House. Alderman Moon—What is your present charge against them ? Itoess-1 brought them here because lir. Unsworth informed me that there was a reward for their apprehen sion for bribery at the recent St. Alban's election. THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 14, 1851. Alderman Moon—Then upon the authority of Mr. Uns- ! worth's stating to you that there was a reward for their apprehension, you took them into custody and brought' them hero ? Witness—l did. Alderman Moon—Since they have been in custody, have you made any inquiry as to whether a warrant fur their uppnlenkon is inexistence? Witness—Yes. Alderman Moon—Have you been able to find any such warrant? Witness—lnspector Heckles, who is stationed at the House of Commons, told me that he had rewired instruc tions not to take any further proceedings in the cue. Alderman Moon—Hate you been to the office of the Speaker? Witness—l did ; but I could get no information there. Alderman Moon—Did you ask the inspector when you went to the House of Common', upon what authority he stated to you that he had received instructions not to take further proceedings ? Witness—l did not ask him that. Alderman Moon—Then you did not apply to the Sm.- jeant-at-Arms ? Witness—l did not. Knowing the inspector and the man White, or Wright, who has been so long looking fur them in the first instance, I thought they could give me .—. , .., every information. Alderman Mom—Since you have taken these persons into custody, have you seen the bill offering the reward for their app!chenslon ? Witness—lcs. --•-• . . . _ Alderman Moon—liar that bill any printer's name at, tached to it 1_ . . . . Witueu—l did not notice the printer's name Alderman Moon—To whom dues the bill refer you to apply for the reward ? itness—To the Secretary of State fur the Homo De. partment. Alderman Moon—And where did you ace that bill? Witness—At the Mansion Rouse. . . Alderman Moon—Ou the outside of the Mansion Douse ? Witness—No; below stairs in one of the offices. Scott (the Mansion House officer)—lt is in the police office below stairs. Alderman Moon—Can you get me one of those bills ? Scott—lt is pasted on the wall. I cannot get it off with out destroying it. But the purport of it is, that the pri soners, when apprehended, are to bu delivered into the custody of the Serjeant-at-Arms, and the application fur the reward is to be made to the Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury. Alderman Moon—Did you go to the Treasury at all? Witness—l did ; and trout there I was referred to Mr. Maule, the Solicitor to the Treasury. Alderman Moon—What information did you get from Mr. Motile Witness—l saw Mr. Maule, and he told me that he knew nothing at all about it. Alderman Moon wished to know front Mr. Goodman' whether bills of this nature were put up at the Mansion. house, without its being ascertained from some official per sonage that there was proper authority Ihr the act. " said Alderman Moon, " is either a thrgery or it is an official document. If it is an official document, of course there is proper authority ; but if it is a forgery, there are no sure means of punishing the parties who have committed it." Mr. Goodman (the chief clerk) said he understood the bills had been forwarded to Forrester, the officer: Scott (the Mansion-house oftleer)—lt has got the Queen's printer. names (Messrs. Eyre and Spottiswoude) attached to it. Alderman Moon—Am I to understand that the govern ment do not intend to mecca further with the matter, and that they have abandoned it altogether ? Mr. bioodman—The question is whether there is any warrant in existence upon w:iich to detain these men; and if so, with the commission of, what offence does it charge them. Alderman Moon—The date of this reward which has been offered for their apprehension would have a great deal to do with it, because parliament being prorogued, I should have thought they would have been discharged from cus tody if they had been apprehended. The question is, whether it is a magistrate's warrant, or a warrant of the Speaker of the Douse of Commons, or whether there is even a warrant in existence at all. The same power that issues a warrant might cause it to be withdrawn. The question is whether there is any charge against these men, and the officer who apprehended them says that he has ap plied at the office of the Secretary of State far the Home Department, that he has also applied at the office of the Speaker, as well as tone Solicitor to the Treasury, and the Inspector of the police, and that he has not liven able to Lear of the existence of any accusation against them. I wish to know how long this Lill has been posted at the Mansion-house Mr. Goodman—The proclamation was made about two months ago. It was u proclamation by the Queen iu Council. Alderman Moun—l imagine that when parliament is dis solved, this reword ceases. It appears to me that we have no right to detain these men. Is there any further charge against them ? Clarke (the Thames wharf offiect)—No. Alderman Moon—Then 1 consider that they are entitled to their discharge. Thu defendants were then Iffiensted. The City Solicitor appeared on Tuesday before the Lord Mayor, ;in his lordship's capacity 11,1 consecrator of the Thames, to receive his directions in a case wherein the offi cers of the Thames l'olice complained that Mr. W. Marsden had thrown a quantity of brick rubbish into the river. Several witnesses were in attendance. ..... The City Solicitor said it was in the option of the City authorities to proceed by indictment or by information i under the statute, which mposts, a penalty of 20e. In the present case it was represented that Mr. Marsden's labour ers had been previously convicted of a similar offence, and the penalty had been paid by their master, upon w horn the payment of a penalty appeared to have no effect m to the prevention of a repetition of it. The Lord Mayor said he thought it would be the more advisable and effectual course to send the ease before a jury. The act appeared to be intended to punish la bourers and servants found offending, but men iu the station of life of the person complained of ought to know better than to commit so injurious an infringem. nt of the law, anal certainly, if found transgressing, should be dealt with mute severely. Mr. Marsden, the father of the defendant, said lie hoped the Lord Mayor would himself hear the case, as he had no doubt that he could satisfy his lordship that it ought to be dismissed. The young mau who was accused was ill fact only his servant , for although the defendant was his sun, he had no interest whatever in the business. The Lord Mayor said that fact did not alter the case. Defendant had been acting for his father, whose defence convinced him, if he had entertained a doubt before upon the subject, that he should act rightly in sending the case to a jury for adjudication. The throwing of rubbish into the Thames was a serious offence, :md the most serious - measures must be adopted to put a atop to the practice, and it was hi' determination to direct the city solicitor to pro secute the case. WORSUIP 7 STREET. .Leers Brown, John Wright and Joints .Y•C'ormnr!•, three . soldiers of the Royal Horse Artillery, were charged with the following se indalous outrage at the house of Mr. Wailiain Siers, a tavern-keeper in Iligh-street, Shorediteli. Captain Algey, of the division to which the prisoners belong, attended to watch the case, and Mr. 1 sun, the solicitor, conducted the prosecution. Miss Emilia Harrison, the daughter of a substantial farmer in Norfolk, and who was painfully agitated while giving her testimony, stated, I am at present staying upon a visit at the house of Mr. Sires, basing come up from the country with some friends to see the Exhibition, and at half-past eleven o'clock last night, 1 went to bed in the hack room on the second floor. I had not been asleep more than two hours, when 1 become sensible that some other person was present, and upon thoroughly awaking found a man in my bed, lying by my side, with one of his arms round my neck, and totally undressed, with the exception of his shirt. This man I can positively swear was the prisoner Brown, whom I had seen previously to retiring to rest in the public parlour of the house, to which he had come in the course of the evening, and I heard him ask if he could be accommodated with beds for three. 1V aen I awoke, and found his arm round my neck in the manner I have described, I ALP) saw another man standing at the foot of the bed, who had on dark trowsers, but no coat. Ile was one of the other two prisoners, but which I cannot say, but I distinctly saw that ho had military truteseni on. 1 was dreadfully terrified, and screamed loudly; and, en treating the man, fur God's sake, not to hurt me, sprang out of bed as rapidly as I could. rho prisoner Brown leaped out of bed also at the same time, and, running to one of the closets in the town, closed lithe door, anti endeavoured to conceal himself. Mr. Sias, who had been alarmed by the scream-, at that moment hasten 1 into the room to my assistance, followed by his uife; and Mrs. Siers, suspecting somebody was con cealed there, went to the closet, and, finding Brown stand ing there upon some steps, seised him firmly by one of hie legs, exclaiming, " Come out, you villain," and the pri soner did so. Mr. :Hers in the meantime returned to the room and secured Brown, expressing his determination to hold him until the police came, and, hearing one of the other two prisoners, who were also present, privately ex claim to his campanions, " We are three to one ; let us kill the —," 1 hurried out of the room during the struggle which ensued between them, and running in my fright into the bedroom of the witness Collins ' concealed myself there in my night clothes under the hed until the police had effected an entrance and secured the soldiers. st he witness added, that she had had no conversation whatever with either of the prisoners previous to the commission of the outrage, and the only time she had been nigh them was once when she handed them some beer at the request of the servant, who wits otherwise engaged. Mr. Sixes, landlord of the house, corroborated the pre ceding statement in every particular, and exhibited the marks which defendant had left on his neck. Henry Collins, a gentleman of Birmingham, lodging at the house, also gave similar testimony. When c alled upon for their defence, the prisoners seve rally expressed the utmost possible contrition for their gees; misconduct, which they attributed to the effects of partial intoxication, and entreated the magistrate to deal leniently with them. _ _ Mr. D'Eyncourt, however, told them that he considered even the fullest summary powers with which he was invested were wholly incommensurate to deal adequately with such au outrage, and he therefore felt it his duty to commit the. whole of them to Newgate for trial. The depositions were thereupon taken by Mr. Hurlstone, the second clerk, but upon his proceeding to read them over, the prisoners (one of whom, Brown, a well-made and handsome-looking fellow, had been crying convulsively ever since he was placed at the bar, and appeared to be completely crushed by his degrading position) earnestly entreated the magistrate not to send them for trial, as it must be the inevitable ruin of them, and this appeal being seconded by an equally earnest one ft nut Mr. Sic,-, and the proseestrix /411 , s Harrison, wha seemed se:Art.ly less affected than Brown himself, and expressed er.nt repug nance to being subjected to a ...coed public examination, Mr. D'Hylicourt at length said, the in ronseiptence of such all earnest appeal front the proseeatrix herself, seconded by the other person moat Interested, Mr. Sieis, j and also in consideration of the two principal witnesses re siding at such distances as Birmingham and Norfolk, he felt bound to accede to the course suggested, but in doing so he should mark his sense of the prisoners' conduct by inflict ing upon them the highest amount of penalty he could im pose. He should therefore order the prisoner Brown to pay a rooky of it. for the aggravated assault upon the young lady, tern default to undergo two months' imprisonment in the House of Correction; a second 51. for his attack upon Mr. Faces, or two months more, to commence at the ex piration of the first term ; and each of the other prisoners to pay the full penalty of 51. each, or in default to stand committed for two mouths each to the House of Correction. THAMES. Thomas Pickering, a merchant, of Union Wharf, Lime house'ligh;crman, and Philip Long, of 4, Broadway, were finally examined on the charge of steal ing 14 tons, 16 cwt., 1 qr., and 1 lb. of guano, the property of the Peruvian govetnment. The exact charge of steal ing was not made out, the evidence only going to show that, having abstracted one half of the original substance, they had adulterated it to the amount of 40 per cent. Mr. Bal lantine, with Mr. llolles, appeared for the prosecution. Mr. Clarkson defended Pickering, and Mr. Pelham ap peared fur Long. The facts have already been made public, yet the court was densely crowded to bear the result, and the evidence occupied a considerable time, 19 witnesses being bound over. Mr. Yardley committed both the prisoners for trial on the charge of felony. The gentlemen engaged for the pri soners reserved their reply until the trial. MARKETS. PRODUCE MARKET. ......
