(The document was handed in. It said, "B . e, the undenigoed electors, undertake to give to any gentleman of independent principles that you may invite to become a candidate at the approaching election, our wannest support.") A few more names only remained to be read after that at Mr. Sesranke. Of the whole list it may be reported, as the result, that two opt of thee* were found to have taken bribes from or fur Edwards. The genera eaarainstion was now roamed. Mr. Edwards, again, in aoswen to questions, said : The I L.. men at the last election noted both for Mr. Bell and Mr ' Carden. There were GI freemen ; 7 did not vote at all ; ,aced for Bell ; 26 voted for Carden. There was a com mittee to conduct the election of Mr Bell. They called th. ;natives • committee. But all they had to do Wag to U. 44 about with Mr. Bell. They and Mr. Bell left all the h.toness to witness. Witness reporter! progress always to Itlr. Bell and the committee Mr. Bell often went to ask the vote of a man who had aheaily got money from wits no se, and who wouldn't promise Mr. Bell. These things ha I to b- set right, and witness gave information when reeked. Was aware of come election squibs which had been Landed about. Recollected them all. (A collection of sled's, Mooed by the Carden party, were here handed to w.tneec.) Mr. hell would not allow any aquae to be issued on his side, or witness would have had On many. AU the Carden squibs spoke openly of the bribery going on. Sovi'osigt. Ally" was referred to in them. All that wan will undetstood. People knew what it no ant. Bad seen the squib adAreeed "to the electors of the borough of St. Alban," (Tne was read ; it referred to "Califor nian l)ost" and " nVetureign Ally.") Knew also the squib heeded " St. Albans."

Mr. 11.41 h.d adverted to thi Node; but ',kn.'s, had always sue ceed..l in keeping Mr. Bell in complete ignorance, anal in satisfying him that the &monitions were untrue. When witness used the phrase"reporting progress," he did not la , .n that he to:11 Mr. Bell what was going on. Wien(., only told Mr. Bell what voters witness had secured. Wit ness wou'd not have had Mr. Dell three dais in the field if Mr. Dell laid known what was going on.

Mr. Edwards—This matter is only in reference to my own immediate pecuniary interests. It dues not area this ini,uiry. Mr. Slade—We are hound to ask you. It does affect the inquiry. You arc the instrument by which others ' were corrupted. But we must know if you too were only a puppet in other people's hands. We are bound to ask you. Mr. Edwards— You are not hound to destroy me.

Mr. Edwards— I have given yon the cue. So that isey no more, it is no harm. - .he eager remonstrance of the witness conquered the MinitlainnerS. After they hail conseilereel a few minutes, Mr. Chitin said --This see.ns to be a personal scruple on your p.ort. You any Mr. Cuppock can give us the answer, we will therefore not now parse you. We will examine Mr. Coppoek ; but understand that we reserve to ourselves the right of putting the question again to you if we find it necessary. Mr. Edwards—Yes, you can ask Coppnek. Of course I must answer every question you choose to put. But I have rased you nut to ask me that One. Mr. Coppock is now at home, and you con examine him, Th. ciantaiation sill again resumed. Witnese—There was uu communication to any person by him of what was going on, except to Blagg. It was unknown to Com:reek, so far as witness was cemented. Was quite sure, however, Coppock und-rstood it all. Had received letters from Cup pock. (Witness handed in letters.) Had destroyed no letters receive from Coppock during the contest. But they could have Cuppoet's letter-book. Cuppock was a very cautious fellow. Witness had been engaged au elections since the election in BOO; altogether in ten elections. An organisation of par ties was kept up from election to election. No organisation was kept up between the election in 1847 and the last clee. tion. Everything was left to witness. Ilad not paid much money in the last integral. Sometimes, out of his owl means, he had assisted indigent electors in order to keep up his influence. Ilad not touch attended to the register. Had generally acted with the "Spencer party." (In the oi.e.ision of the last election after the vacancy he had eon stilted his party, us to what was to be done. Mr. Kinder, Mr. Itichiurdson, and others had submitted Mr Bell's name to them before he had engaged with Mr. Bell. Would, not have brought • candidate down if they bad not sans %Limed hint. The agreement between witness and his party was clin4y an agreement us to political principles. The party knew nothing of witness's agreement with Mr. Bel; as to money. Told his party that he had receised a letter from Mr. Coppock before lie had seen Brace.. Knew that kis party would he satisfied when witness told them that he was engaged for Coppoek. After the petition was presented, saw Coppoek frequently. Also saw Mr. Bell. Never disclosed to Mr. Bell until Mr. Bell Cline to Albans this time to give his evidence. Mr. Boil had an time slightest idea of witnem's plans and tactics. Had an toutomplsted that the 2,59a1.11.0 to secure the candidate even against a petition.

Mr. Coppoek kept the cheek on witness. Coppock was the only person who knew anything about it. He was a very sharp fellow and very cautious. The witness was then informed that he was not required to answer further questions that day. The tominissumem weight robably, however, require him on • future day to state wbst he knew of prroeient elections. Mr. Rawer& said he would be ready to state what be Law of Casiaa'a voter at previous onetime. Ha la/ The e.!iger PLI VOITIE I.F.SWICII Swismow Luerrai ........ CANLIIII.OII Plinlllloll.lol given money to many of them at previous elections. (Applause.) Mr. Slade—Do you know anything of money being given to Car.len's voters at this elective ? Mr. Edwards—lf you take the same mune with the other party that you have taken with me you will not need me. (Applause.) After some conversation, Mr. Edwards said he did not blame the commissioners for theposition in which he was placed. lie blamed himself, and the legislature which had passed such a stringent enact ment. Ile had suffered; and he no doubt should suffer. lint he should be disappointed if the course pursued by the commissioners with him and with Mr. Dell was not also pursued with Sir It. Carden and Sir It. Carden's agents. Edwards was then about to retire from the witness box, when Mr. Wells, the barrister, rose to claim the right, as counsel fur several of the electors, to put questions to Edwards. The time had tutee when the gentlemen he (Mr Wells) represented had a right to appear by counsel. The learned gentleman was asked by the commissioners whether he desir,d to put questions direct or through the wart. Mr. Wells replied that he claimed a right to appear, and therefore to put questions direct; but, putting aside his right, be appealed to the commissioners whether, in the exercise of their discretionary powers, they would not think it desirable to allow electors to ba heard by counsel. The last witness had referred to his (Mr. Wells's) clients—Mr. Kinder awl others. He (Mr. Med.) did nut believe that Edwards had told anything but the truth ; but the cha meter of Mr. Kinder had been brought in question, dhe (Mr. Wells) deeired to examine the witness. On the double ground, that lie had a general right, as counsel; and on the ground that he could assist in eliciting truth, he asked permission to put question.. While the commissioners were consulting in respect to this application, Mr. Low (solicitor, and the agent of Sir IL Carden) ap plied to the commiseime re fur permission to exercise the same privilege as that claimed by Mr. Weds. Mr. Forsyth replied, that Mr. Low, a. an elector, could put whatever questions he wished through the court Mr. Low claimea the Clint right for himself as Mr. We Its claimed for Isis client*. Mr. Gresham (solicitor) also claimed the same right as Mr. Wells. Mr. Forsyth could not understand what these questions meant. Mr. Wells applied as a member of the bar. Mr. Gresham meant that if Mr. Wells was snowed to put que,tioas direct, as the reproentative of other parties, he (Mr. Gresham) insisted on being allowed the same privi lege as as elector, and not actin,: for others. (Great laughter, Mr. Gresham appearing to be • "character" in St. Albans.) The retired to consider the applications of Mr. Wells and Mr. Low. On their return, Mr. Slade stated that the commissioners had conic to the conclusion that they could not concede the , abstract right of counsel appearing in this inquiry. There were several analogous inquiries, such as the grand juries' and coroners' inquiries, at which counsel , did not and could uot appear. In this inquiry the inter- ests of individuals were not affected and not endangi red. The commission was issued to inquire into a system, and into a system only. They had to get at facts irrespective of results. So clear was it that the legislature hail not contemplated investigating or dealing atilt the criminal acts of individuals, that all parties giving truthful evi dence were absolved by the powers given to the commis sioners from all consequences. In point of tact, therefore, no party was before the commissioners, and no party could lie heard. There was a compulsory power given to compel witn.sses to answer questions ; but this compulsion was to answer qucatioas put by the court. There was no compu.sion to answer questions put by any one else, and the indemnity was only to be given to witnesses for answeriog questions put by the court. This showed that the intention of the legislature clearly was, that questions should be put by the court only, or when suggested by others, should be adopted by the court. So much as to the abstract right of counse l to appear. With regard to the discretionary power of the commissioners, the commis sioners acre decideilly of °pillion that were they to grant Mr. Well., or Mr. Low, or Mr. Gresham the privilege they claimed, the inquiry would be interminable. If a counsel could put questions direct to a dames, electors could, a fortiori, also put questions direct. To concede what was asked, therefore, would be to occasion great inconvenience and endless delay. Mr. Fors)th and Mr. Phina followed, detailing pre cisely the same reasons fur refusing the applications. Mr. Wells would INIW respectfully to the opinion of the court. It should be understood that he had nu desire to establish a grievance, or to protest against the decision of the court. lie had wished, as the repreacntative of many electors, to appear as counsel on their behalf. But he left the court, alter having watched the inquiry for three days, deeply impressed with the conviction that the learned com missioners were taking a course eminently calculated to elicit the truth in regard to those truism:turas auto which they were inquiring. Mr. Slade—You, Mr. Wells, and the public, may be perfectly certain that every person affected by Edwards's evidence shall have an opportunity of correcting and ex plaining. Mr. Low hail only wished by putting in his application to show that it would be a practical inconvenience to con cede the privilege of parties "appearing," either person ally, or by counsel. Mr. Edwards (who hail not left the witness-box) was asked a few further questions by the court. at the suggestion of Mr. Debenham. one of Mr. committee. Mr. Edwards explained that in saying that his party would be satisfied when they knew he (Edwards) was in communication with Mr. Coppock, he meant that they were satisfied the candidate would he a good government candi date. Witness further said that Mr. Debenham had only been resident in the borough since 1S)0. Mr. Debenhant had dealt with Edwards as a confidential agent of the liberal party. Mr. Debenham did not know of Edwards's practice with respect to money. lu answer to Mr. Low (through the court) Mr. Edwards said that " Iliad-money" was hit own phrase, not a St. Albans phrase. But people always understood what he meant. _ _ _ 1 he court was adjourned to Tuesday next. PUBLIC SALES. Ocr. 30.—8 y MMES.

MELANCHOLY AND SINGUL R ACCIDENT. —A building is the vicinity of St. Peter's church, Nottingham, has been for some time undergoing certain repairs, the works of which have been carrying on by and under the active superintendence of Mr. Minn, a highly respectable joiner, builder, &c. It appear. that Mr. Mason amongst others, woo in possession of a ladder of great length, which I hod been in us: n number of years. and had consequently bee me much worn, and fur wear indeed insecure. Wed- I neselay afternoon, he went to the building above referred Ito, for the purpose of surveying the progression of the j works, and determined, for his better satisfaction as to how the works were proceeding to go to the summit of the building. When Mr. Mason was in the act of getting on to the ladder a brick layer at work near intimated that it was eteeedingly uueafe, mud refused to go up. Hereupon Mr. Mason mounted it, and was very injudiciously followed by another party. When Mr. Mason had rea c hed the summit, and the man had got about It) staves up, the ladder snapped in two hfeces in the centre. in consequence of which they were both urled to the ground, Mr. Mason from • terrific height, and his head, coming in contact with • hard stone pavement, was completely smashed in pieces. Death was, of course, instantaneous. The other unfortunate man wu seriously injured. THB POLICE COURTS. GUILDHALL. Samuel Jones, a respectably dressed young man, was charged with obtaining a quantity of goods from various tradesmen upon fey ged orders. Mr. William Swainson said—l am a fringe manufacturer, of 72, Wood-street, Cheapside. On the 21st and 27th of this month prisoner came to my warehouse and presented these orders. They aro signed with the name of Walmesley, one of my customers. Thu goods were supplied to him, and I afterwards ascertained that prisoner had left Mr. Walmcsley's employ prior to the date of both the orders. He was detected in a similar transaction at Mrs. Ramsay's, in Newgate-street, which led to his apprehension. John l'rice said—l am clerk to the prosecutor. Ido not recollect anything about the first order, but when prisoner brought the order dated the 27th Oct., I supplied him with, the good+, consisting of fringe furniture, value 335., which be took away with him. Gerard Pitmau—l am clerk to Mr.Walmesley, of 12, King street, Cheapsidc. Prisoner was in Mr. Wulmealey's employ up to the early part of last June, when he left. He never had any authority to write any orders. The two orders pro- duced have never been issued, from our house, neither are they signed by Mr. Walmesley. We never received these goods from the prisoner. Mrs Ilamsay's clerk produced a number of forged orders upon which prisoner had obtained goods. Smith, 171, said, on taking prisoner into custody, he ad mitted lie was guilty of the charge against him, and on his person witness found several other forgeries of a similar nature. Committed for trial. WESTMINSTER. Wm. Smith alias late a labourer em ployed at the Equitable Gas N orks, Thames Bank, was brought up for re-esamination charged with the brutal murder of Mary Elizaifeth Reynolds, aged 17 mmiths, the illegitimate child of a woman with whom ho cohabited in Douglas•rrcet, Westminster. The particulars of the prisoner's examination were fully detailed in our impression of Saturday last, since which a coroner's jury have returned a verdict of Wilful murder" against the accused. Mr. G. Pearse, of Regent-street, Westminster, surgeon, said—Since I was here on the last occasion I have made apart mi,rtcht examination. In addition to my former testimony I found two semi-circular marks on the left leg, and ano ther on the instep, with an Melt citation, apparently caused by a bite with teeth. There was no bruise upon the right leg, which was broken. I found an old fracture of the right collar-bane. The external organs of the chest and abdomen are perfectly healthy. On opening the scalp I found a large spot of extravasated Mood, covering nearly the whole of the right side of the head, and on the right hemisphere of the brain large clots of blood extravusated. The extravasation of blood on the brain was the cause of death. Ins closing the case for the prosecution, the depositions of the st,veral witnesses were read over, and Mr. liroderip, in due form of law, asked the prisoner whether he wished to my anything ? Prisoner—" All as I have got to say is, I have no recollec tion of what I done after I got home." Mr. liroderip--rrisoner at the bar, the case is complete against you, but ns there is no certainty as to whether the grand jury may or may not be cliKharged before the wit nesses can attend before them, I remand you until Satur day nest, on which day it will he my duty to commit you for trial, upon the charge of wilful murder. SOUTHWARK. Joseph Neville, a mad-porter, was charged with commit ting a serious assault on his wife, who is now lyinrg in a bad state in Guy's Hospital, from the injuries inflictetruk.ou her by the prisoner. `Police constable 176 L mid—About one o'clock yesterday morning he was proceeding along Windmill-street, New. cut, when his attention was attracted to a female lying on the ground groaning. The prisoner was running away, out he stopped him, and took him back, when the female said he bad kicked her on the head in a desperate manner. Ile called for assistance, and removed the woman to a Fur , aeon's, when it was discovered that her head was much hurt, and he was directed to take her to the hospital. Wit ness produced a certificate from the house liurgeum, setting forth that Sarah Neville was unable to leave her bed from wounds inflicted on her head, and it was feared erysipelas might follow. In defence the prisoner said that while he was cnilea vouriug to get her into the house she fell with her head on the kerbstone, and cut it. The magistrate remanded him until Saturday next. Edmore( Austin, in the employ of Messrs. Watkins, ex tensive bookbiaders, iu Gravel-lane, Smthwark, was charged with stealing a great number of unbound llibleM, the pro perty of his employers, and selling them as waste paper to tradesmen. . . 'thwnas Talmadge, foreman in the employ of the com plainants, stated that the prisoner had been fourteen mouths in his situation, and that a few days since two hundred un bound volumes of a small edition of the Bible were given to him fur the purpose of being what is termed papered and premed. Out of the number thus entrusted to his charge it was discovered that he had made away with 163 volumes, and, upon subsequent inquiries, it was ascertained that he had plundered the premises of no immense quan tity of unbouud volumes of the Bible and sold them as Nash! paper. A sack full of the paper he had disposed of in the way mentioned was produced and identified by the witness from certain private marks as the property of his employers. George Ketterman, a pork butcher in Kent-street, stated that the prisoner called at his shop and enquired if he bought waste paper, and went on to say that he could sup ply him with as much of the article as he pleased, adding that he would let him have it at the rate M lid. per lb. Witness assented, and purchased on various occasions large quantities of unbound Bibles, the prisoner assuring him that it was all right, and that they belonged to him. The witness added that he had since delivered up the remaining portion of what he had bought of the prisoner to the police, end that all the rest lie bad used in his trade. In reply to Mr. Elliott, the complainants' foreman stated that there were nearly 100 persons more in his employers' service, and that the prisoner no doubt must have taken away the unbound volumes on those occasions that he left the premises to go to his meals, and that it was easy to con ceal them by taking away small quantities at a time. 'three other pork-butchers living in the same neighbour hood gave evidence of their heving purchased the unbound Bibles (produced) of the prisoner as waste paper, on his assurance that they were spoiled copies and his own perqui sites. One of the witnesses said that upon the last occasion the prisoner called upon him and said he also had a quart tity of " parliamentary paper" to dispose of, adding that as it was of a better quality and larger size than the Bibles, he Expected to have 2d. a pound for it. The foreman said that his employer had acts of parlia ' went to bind, and that no doubt the prisoner intended to have sold them as waste paper in the same manner he had I done the Bibles. . . The prisoner, who said nothing in answer to the charge, was conansittt4. MARKETS. LI VE RPODL GC t 30 The sales to-day are :—Sugar : GO hluls.

Josiah Westley, :39, bookbinder, was indicted for felo- I niuusly Cowing and uttering a bill of exchange for 100/., with intent to defraud Messrs. Glyn and Co. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Huddlestone were counsel for the prosecution; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Ballantine. From the opening speech of the learned counsel for the prosecution it appeared that the prisoner, who had curried on a considerable business as a bookbinder, in Playhouses. yard, Bleckfriars, had fur three or four years kept ma se. count with Messrs. Glyn and Cu., and latterly they Mil discounted bills for him fur a considerable amount. On the Ilst April of the present year the bill in question, which :lirto be accepted by James Gilbert, a bo o k seller e, was so discounted in the ordinary way of Mul attos and the amount placed to the credit of the prisoner, and upon the bill coming due it was dishonoured, and this led to inquiry, which resulted in the discovery that there was no such person as James Gilbert at Yore, and the present prosecution was in consequence instituted against the prisoner. Mr. Williams, the discount clerk at Messrs. Glyn and Co.'w, produced the books and proved the formal facts elf the case. In addition to the bill which was the subject at the indictment, he proved that two other bills, for the respective amounts of 1131. 15s. and 1151., officially ac cepted by George Maste.., sprinter at Leeds, were also dis counted for the prisoner. Upon being cross-examined by Mr. Clarkson, the witness stated that the discount transactions of the prisoner with the bank had been very extensive, possibly to the amount of 20,00..1. clove his account was first opened. The prisoner had represented that his capital was not sufficient to carry on his business, and he repeatedly applied for discount ac commodation; and the prisoner had given the bank a lien upon some property in which he had a reversionary interest as security for the advance% they made to him. The witness also said that inquiries were made when two of the tills he had referred to were dishonoured, but en criminal pro ceedings wete taken against the prisoner until atter Le was declared a bankrupt. Same witnesses were then called who proved that there were no much persons as James Gilbert, a bookseller, at York; or George Master, a printer, at Leeds. Mr. Clerkwu, at the close of the ease lie the prosecution, said that the prisoner desired himself to address the court in answer to the charge. He accordingly read a written statement to the following effect ;--The primmer said that he v. as placed in his present painful position by circumstances over which he had no control, and as to toe charge of forgery, or feloniously ut tering a forged instrument, he was entirely innocent, And he had Loped down to the very last moment to be able to produce the persons who had in reality committed the offence be was charged with. lie entreated the fury to take into consideration not only the position of himself, but that of his wile and family, and to believe that it was pos sible tor an innocent person to be made the victim of really guilty parties who declined to come forward and expose their guilt. His present unfortunate position arose entirely from the conduct of one of his relations, who was under great unligations to him fur hating set hint uyin business. Having himself a large blifillCSS rciiiitnng sometimes so much as oue to two hundred paw's per week for the payment of wages, the jury would naturally asp po.,,e that he was occasionally pressed for muney, and hating mentioned his difficulty to his brother, lie told ban that he could procure him accommodation acceptances. Placing confidence in the representations of his brother, he did draw these bills, and his brother procured the acceptances for him, and he believed them to be genuine, and passed them away as buck to sewn. Glyn and Cu., and lie in tended to have taken up the bills when they arrived at maturity but was prevented from doing so by unnirseen circumstances. Ile said that so much as 90,0001. of his money had pinned through the hands of the bankers on Lis account, and they held security upon pro perty which Lad been recently valued at 4,0001., and he therefore thought that he had sonic claim upon them, and he called the attention of the court and jury to the tact that they did not take any proceedings against him until be was, declared a bankrupt. The prima. tier in conclusion asserted in the must solemn manner that he was guiltless of any knowledge of the forgery or of any intention to defraud the prosecutors. Mr. Justice Creeswell, iu aunnuing up, said that as there was no evidence to support the charge art forgery, the only question fur the jury to consider was whether the pre. 'nee had uttered the instrument in question with a guilty know ledge that at was forged. It was his duty to tell them that in point of law the placing the name of is nun-existing per. son as an acceptor to a bill of exchange with intent to detraud amounted to the crime of forgery, and it was tar them to say whether upon the evidence they were imti-tied that when the prisoner, passed away this bill he was aware that nu such person as James Gilbert, a bookseller at York, was in existence. They had heard the statement that was made by the prisoner. and his admission that the bill was an accommodation bill; but it was for the jury to consider whe ther, even according to his uwu showing, he must not have known that there was nu such person as James Gilbertoind if he did know this, Lis offence in law amounted to uttering a forged instrument. It was evident that there had been very extemive discount transaction between the pri soner and the bank, and it was certainly rather a curious circumstance that when two of the bills had been dishonoursil, and inquiriee had no doubt been made re specting them, that no steps were taken against the prisoner unti. lie was declared a bankrupt. The jury would, how ever. take all the circurnetauces of the ease into their consi deration, audit the statement made by the prisoner raised any serious doubt in their minds upon the subject, they would of course give him the benefit of such doubt, and soy that he was nut guilty. f tie jury retired, and were absent about half-an-boar, when they returned a verdict of Nut Guilty. Mr. bodkin said there were two more indictments against the prisoner having reference to the other bills, but as they involved the slime facts he did nut think it teeessary to proceed with teens alter the Conclusion the jury Lau er rieed at. A verdict of Not Guilty was accordingly taken upon both charges. _ _ -- Thomas James Eduard Pommy surrendered to take his trial for the manslaughter of Anne Shaw. Mr. Huddlestone prosecuted, Mr. Clarkson defended the prisoner. 1 he prisoner was in the service of Mr. Anderton, a grocer in Old-street, and it appeared that on the night of the 14u September the deceased purchased some article of the pri soner, and she insisted that he had given her aixperce too little iu change. The prisoner asserted that he had giver her the correct change, and the deceased then became very violent, end made a great disturbance, and at length the prisoner laid hold of her and endeavoured to put her into the street. The deceased struggled with him, and in the course of the scuttle she fell to the ground and injured her head, and died shortly afterwards. Mr. Clarkson was about to address the jury for the pri soner, when Mr. Justice Maule interposed, and said he did not think the evidence was sufficient to support a charge of manslaughter. The jury therefere, under his lordship's direction, re turned a verdict of Not Guilty. Henry Howard, who had pleaded guilty to four indict ments for forgery, was brought up for judgment. The nature of the offence imputed to the prisoner was this :—He used to apply at the different money-order offices for an order for a small amount, such as a shilling ; and, baring obtained the genuine document, he dexterously altered it no as to make it appear to be an order for live pounds, and he then passed the fictitious order away to some tradesman in payment for goods to the supposed amount of the order. There were four separate cases breught forward against the prisoner, and many others of the same kind could have been established against lie was sentenced to be transported for seven years. NEW COURT.-YESTERDAY. Suomi nut Rscoanut. Edward Macey, 24, labourer, was indicted for burglary in the dwelling-house of Thomas Williams, and another, and stealing • table cloth, and other articles, their property. Mr. Carteen prosecuted, and Mr. Charnock defended. The facts were these--One of the police stopped three I men on the night of the 28th of September, in Collinwood. street, Blackfriars, one of whom was the prisoner, The I appearance of one of the men being bulky, the officer was about to search him, when he was struck, kicked, and thrown down, and the men made off, but not without a severe struggle with the officer, and then leaving a hat with the property above-named in it, which turned out had been stolen from the prosecutors, who are drapers in blaekfriars. The prisoner, being known, wsa taken shortly afterwards. The jury found him Galley, and he was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment. dliehacl arm, 23, labourer was indicted for burglary in the dwelling-house of Edward Newland, and stealing a night dress and shawl, the property of Catherine Connelly. The prosecutrix, a girl about 15, stated that she lived ser vant to Mr. Newland, who resides in York-terrace, Trinity Church-road, Newington. She sleeps in the front kitchen, and on the morning of the Bth of October she well awoke by hearing some one in the kitchen, and on looking she saw the prisoner and another man searching the place. She feigned to be asleep, and prisoner, who had a light, came several times and looked at her. They tried her master's bureau, and at last alter being there some time one of them took a lung instrument from his coat and forced her mis tress's clothes boa, and she then screamed out, upon which the prisoner threw the lighted candle at her, and then threw himself on the bed to stifle her tries, and finally ran oat of the kitchen. It further appeared that the master, bearing the cries, threw up the back window and saw the prisoners getting out of the back-kitchen window. The alarm losing given, prisoner was apprehended in the rear of the premises. The jury found him thrifty. It basing been proved that be had been before twice cony ht. Ilia Lordship sentenced hint to ten years' transporta tion ; and, haling highly commended the courage of the proseentriz, ordered her a soetreigu as a reward for her conduct. In the course of the afternoon the grand jury were dis charged, when they made the subjoined presentment : " that, in the altered state of juries, compared with those in which the systi no originated, grand juries are nu longer necessary or useful for the administration of justice. The inquiry before the grand jury is secret and ci parte, the evident: is exempt from the penalty of perjury, and therefore cannot be relied on for the purpose of controlling or revising the decision of the committing magistrate, who has heard both sides of the case in open court, and the sys tem opens • door for indictments originating in motives of revenge, extortion, or intimidation, which the parties I w ould not venture to prefer before a tribunal having the power to hear both sides of the question. It also affords opportunities for corrupt compromises, by which some of the worst offenders escape from justice. "To these evils are to be added the heavy and useless expose to the county, and the waste of time to prosecutors land witnesses in attendance upon the court." His Lordship said he would take care the presentment should be forwarded to the proper quarter. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. Fr•MNrcarre.pMesto °SM. Ali us:eft*" 4•• Llord's CASUALTIES.
