LITERATURE Lectures on the Etoo:is4 niusiossriste of the EipAleesstA na ture. By Witt.t.sii MeatraacZ TUACILIMAY, author of " Vain, Fair," te. Smite, Eider, sod Co., Corobill The great and striking fact that distinguishes this book from an ordinary 'Joe* of criticisms on authors is, of course, that the man who here speaks of hu mourists is a humourist himself. Old Butler, in one of the poems in his " Remains," says: As English poet 'heels' be tried ►by his peers, And sot by pedants and philosophers: lucompetrat to judge poetic fury, As butchers are forbid to be on a jury. This is true of all classes of writers. Why is Coleridge's criticism so valuable ? Because he could himself create : and he was therefore, as a partaker of the feeling from which works of art spring, the deepest judge of it, manifestations. The " Lectures" of Sydney Smith on wit and humour; the "Essays" of Leigh Hunt on writers of sentiment and imagina tion—are all further proofs of the truth of that which Butler said and which we urge ; and now the attractiveness of this book of Mr. Thackeray's is a further confirmation of it. We do not pretend to exclude all criticism by men who have not the creative power, which would be unjust and absurd. We only maintain that, given the creative power, its posses,or will be the truest and deepest judge of others. l'erhaps since Scott wrote the biographies of the novelists no such a happy instance of sympathy be tween a humourist and her critic has occurred as we bare displiqed here. What, then, is the chief charm and value of the work? It is this—that, as a novelist, Mr. Thackeray bps laid hold of the per sonality of the men he writes about. The faculty consists in the readiness of this mental process—viz., the abstracting from all the hundred accounts of a man those points, those essentials, which are the moat vital characteristics of him. A mere critic might tell you that Pope was a weak, deformed, little man, who wrote very finely, and was somewhat bitter. Thackeray seizes the relation between the personal phenomena and the intellectual result, drops im mense superfluities of narrative and criticism (such as are in the biographies), and gives you the man and the author in one portrait. He succeeds in doing this, because, as a novelist, he has learned to observe character in its everyday de velopment in society. He knows bow to interpret all those actions, weaknesses, and peculiarities, which have distinguished the men he speaks of—and larks this mental question—What kind of man would Pope or Swift be, if he were alive now ? An answer to this is just what the general reader wants. Ordi nary criticism presents nothing to the heart to lay bold of : these " Lectures" do, and the chances are, give one about as vivid a notion of the sort of people these great writers really were in private life, as can now be obtained. The reader sees more of that cen tury in this book than anywhere else—out of Ho prth's canvasses. Such is the general importance of the work. The effect is produced by the agency of the most suitable and appropriate of all styles : a style that is very easy, and flowing, and colloquial—and eminently art ful too. Its effect is designed to carry off the opi nions in an appropriate music. When Swift's un happiness is to be narrated (and the effect conveyed that it was Swift's own fault), the style becomes solemn and even passionate ; when Addison is talked of, we are gravely seduced into more earnestness of admiration, than Addison himself produces; and Prior and Gay pass before us to a light, airy, cheer ful tune. Indeed, the book is eminently dramatic; the narrative represents the moving of the personte, and the commentary the accompanying music. The pleasure produced by reading it, is much like that which you derive from a serio-comic opera—which remark must be taken in its most complimentary sense. Thackeray was well aware where his real strength, or where, at all events, the attractiveness of novelty lay, when he made up his mind to direct his expo sition to the men's lives, rather than their works. But as nothing but the " works" induces nos to interest ourselves in the " lives" of these people, there is sometimes injury done by this system, which must be set against the benefits of it. This is easily illustrated. We have more biographical information about one cele brity than the other, and thus on Mr. Thackeray's plan—the celebrity who has had the most copious accounts written of him, comes best off. Addison is made far more of, for example, than Sterne. Will anybody venture to compare the genius of the essayist with that of the creator of the Shandy family— that exquisite writer whose quality of humour is richer, rarer, and more subtle and delicate than anybody's but Shakspeare's? Yet the result of Mr. Thackeray's conduct in this matter is, that he sends the confiding reader to the works of both men, —to find in the end that Addison is a smaller man, and Sterne a much greater man, than he imagined. On the whole, the " Lectures" are a valuable addi tion to our permanent literature ; eloquent when the author ii serious; brilliant when he is gay; they are charming reading. They will instruct hundreds; and those who differ from the author in particular points, will still come back often to weigh his remarks, to re-consider his view. We do not say that they are works as remarkable as " Esmond " or " Vasity Fair : "—they will be most valued as contain ing the opinions of one who has acquired an autho rity by these preceding publications. BrAGLARY AND ATTEMPTED MURDER. BRISTOL, JOLT was received yes- terday by the police of a burglary of a very dariag deo criptioa, and accompanied with savage violence, which was unmerited that seaming, Whets the hours of one and two o'clock, at the house el Mr. Williams, a gentleman eighty five years of age, who resides at Cotham Vale, soar this city. It appears, from the inquiries we have instituted, that Mr. Williams, who was formerly a teasher. maided Mee, although the bomb is in a somewhat eigneoned situation ; with which fact, no doubt, the burglars became acquainted, and it is clear, from the traces left of their pro. eatediags, that they were accomplished housebreakers, the whole matter Davis, been evidently pleased and carried out with the greatest deliberation. It would seem, from an emnisatios of the premises, that they first of all procured a short ladder from a cowshed is • field near the premiers, and endeavoured to effect an satrance through • window on the first storey is front of the house, they having previously ascertained that all the back windows bad been properly secured by bells being at tached to them. After one or two trials they found they could not succeed in opening that window, it bevies been fastened oet the inside, and they then proceeded to some bay fields some little disarm of where they procured a large 24-round ladder, whish reached to the upper window, which was unfastened , sad by this means they managed to get in, and they premed at once to the old man's bed room. According to his statmeat there were four persons altogether concerned la this outrage. One of these men had his face covered with • mask, and he at once jumped on the bed, seised the old man, gagged hie mouth, and threatened that he would murder him if be did not at once disclose where his property was, or if he made the slightest disturbance. Mr. Williams protested that he did hot keep his money on the premises, but the other men at once began rifling the house, palling open all the cupboards and drawer', and searching every spot where they thought it likely property of any kind :night be concealed, and they succeeded in possessing them selves of • gold watch worth twenty guineas, a silver watch, and all the money the old gentleman bad in his pockets. While this was going on, the man with the mask stood over Mr. Williams and beat him several times with his fist on the face and head. He struggled very much, and managed to get under the bed, but the burglars seised hold of his legs and tried to pull him out, and one of them took hold of Mr. Williams' finger and bit it nearly off, to make him come out. The man with the mask then beat his head against the flooring, at the same time threatening him, with impre cations, if he attempted to remove the band .ge they had takes the precaution to place over his eyes. They ill-used him so much that he became insensible, and the villeins soon after quitted the house, no doubt scrip:chc that be was dead, making their escap e through the kitchen window and over the hack wal l. As the bandage was kept over his eves, Mr. Williams could not give a full description of the men, but he recognised four different voices, and he said, as far as he could judge, the man with the mask was • rough fellow, but the others had the ap pearanceof gentlemen. Sh ortly after the villains had left, Mr. Williams managed to crawl down stairs, and went to a neighbour's house, who got up and procured a policeman from the nearest beat, and one of his comrades, and on searchieg the house they found that in addition to the pro perty above mentioned the thieves had carried off some gold seals and keys. They must have gone cautiously to work, for they had removed all the belle from the fasten ings to lessen the chances of alarm, and opened all the doors so as is case of necessity to admit of easy flight. The locks of the bow had evidently been picked with superior is strusaents. The thieves left behind them some articles of sew wearing appere‘ which it is hoped hereafter will afford a clue to their MeWty.

"Then do I understand that you refuse to produce the books ?" that a repetition of the same matter occurred over and over again ; that the Chief Justice again desired him in an angry tine "to be silent and keep his seat;" but claiming and in simirg en MS right to interrupt the opposite counsel, and prevent his putting leading questions to his witnesses, the appellant was ordered by the Chief Justice to be fined is the sum of 201. for contempt of court ; that the appellant did not allow an improper word to escape from his lips, further than to insist upon his right to be heard ; that im mediately after this fine was imposed, the Chief Justice observed that a great many persons is court felt for sad sympathised with the tippets lint, and remarked that the appellant was acting in • manner which was likely to induce persons to believer that justice was not likely to be done to the appellant's client, which the sppellaat felt was the fact ; that the Chief Justice declared him guilty of a contempt, and ordered him be Seed in the further sum of 501.; that the appellant 'Omits that the imposition of such fines was an arbitrary and unjust exercise of the authority of the court by the Chief Justice ; that in the ennduct pursued by the appellant there was nothing either illegal, irregular, or improper towards the court; that the appellant was only discharging his duty to his client ; that the appellant denied that the representa tion of thefacts which led to these proceedings as repre sented on the minute of the court was accurate; that being fearful that he would be arrested for the fines he paid the samsof 201. and SOL to the clerk of the court, protesting at theism* time against the legality of the proceeding, sad giving notice of his intention to appeal; that the trial of the cause then proceeded, hut the Chief Justice permitted the same course, so prejudicial to the ease of the appellant to be adopted on the other side ; that • short time afterwards the appellant was again fined for contempt of court, the eon tempt being that having addressed the Queen's advocate he waserdered to be silent, and then he madethe following ob servation to the judge:—" Whenever I get up to speak lam interrupted." In consequence of the conduct of the jaclp the appellant declined to tender any more bills of exception than he had already tendered. The judge asked him why he had not done so, when he alleged that his Honour's conduct had been tantamount to a refusal to allow him to do so, whereupoa he was fined SOL for con tempt. The fine not having been paid, the Chief Justice caused a writ of copies and fieri facia to be issued against the appellant, who was arrested, but he obtained his dis charge, the writ having beer issued without a seal en, in demnifying the sheriff. Having left the colony, the appellant's attorney, pursuant to • notice served on the clerk of the ecurtwito had by direction of the Chief Justice issued • writ without the assistance of the crown law 'Soar, moved the Court of the Recorder oa the 22nd of November, 1851; for a nil, to show cause why the writ &We not be set aside on the ground that it:was void for Mint of seal, but the Chief Justice refused the nee. In uenee of this decision, the appellant's agent was com es his account to pay the fine of SOL The appellant that he felt deeply aggrieved by these oppressiveZii arbitrary proceedings, not only in a professional and peinalary way, bat what was far more important to him, by the imputations which had been east on his conduct, the *feet of which and the orders [made against hiss was to preclude him from the fair exercise of ibis profession in the Recorder's Court He further complained that the preftwaliap were wholly unwarranted, harsh, and oppres sive, sail wars • violation of his just rights and privileges as en eiveeate. The answer of the respondents denied the appellant's allegations, and stated that on the second day of the trial the Queen's Advo - ate, Mr. O'Neill, opened the defendant's case, and upon his proceeding to examiae the wanness for the defence, the appellant commenced $ mums of disorderly conduct ; that he several times boisterously interrupted the Queen's Advocate in the examination of the witaemes without any justifiable cause ; that the court desired the petitioner to desist ; that the admonitions and warning of the court were not attended to by the appellant, but en the contrary his conduct was disorderly and boisterous; that hardly • question could be pot by the adverse party but the appellant rose to object ; that the appellant proceeded to n• fleet on the bench in language to the following effect : " That greater latitude was allowed to the Queen's Advocate than to himself in the examination of witnesses; that the Queen's Advocate had it all his own way ; that the respondent, J ohn Carr, emmulted with the respondent Robert Armstrong, as to the propriety of fining the appellant, when Armstrong advised Mai not to do so, as the appellant appeared to be greatly excited, and the court wee therefore adjourned until the following day. On the cause being resumed, the appellant, Instead of offering any apology for the language he had used the previous day, again interrupted the Queen's Advamte and Mr. Deegan, whereupon the respondent', ding admonition useless, imposed a fine of 201. for con• Naps of court. The same behaviour having been ma thmed, the Chief Justice remarked " That the conduct of doe sopallsat was calculated to lead persons to believe that balm want likely to be done to the plaintiff." To which the swiss% k a meet insolent and disrespectful manner, sad Via skald is kis chair, and with a grinning men talism% ',plied aloud, I can very well see that." Susi induct being highly improper, the respondents Mt Masi to impose a further fine of 501. The respealsass having denied several of the allegations of the appellant, went on to mate that on the fol lowing day he voluntarily paid the fines imposed on him, and that subsequently to the imposition of the last fine he declared the court might fine him as often as it pleased, but be would get justice elsewhere." They further al leged that such disrespectful conduct having been conti nued by the appellant, who got up an altercation with the Queen's Advocate, the cow: imposed a further fine of 101., which was paid on the 22nd of September; and on the 24th of the same month, the appellant having declined to answer a question put by the court, declaring " he was ready to go to gaol and put an end to the trial," the respondent Carr felt bound to impose another fine of 601., which however was not paid, and Can with the consent of Armstrong, issued the estreat roll. The appellant denied that the writ could be issued, as the period allowed by the act had expired, and he also claimed the retur nof the lines paid under fear of arrest, as he al leged, though he well knew no order had been issued for his arrest. The appellant left the colony for England on the 21st of November, 1851, and before the next court of quarter sessions at which the writ was returnable was held, namely, December following. On the 22nd of November, the appellant being beyond the jurisdiction of the court, a motion was made before the Recorder of Freetown, by Mr. Dyett, appellant's attorney, for a rule nisi to set aside the writ and to discharge the then sheriff, Mr. Parke, from being liable to contempt of court for having discharged the appellant from his custody under the writ, on the ground that it had not been sealed with the seal of the court. The court having been informed that the Queen's Advocate had not received notice of the motion, refused the application on the ground that it should have been preceded by a notice to the law officer of the Crown, and that the writ was returnable to the Court of Quarter Sessions, and not to that of the Recorder of Freetown, and that the former had no seal for the sealing of writs or other documents returnable to that court. In conclusion, the respondents prayed that the petition and appeal might be dismissed. Mr. Whateley and Mr. Moore appealed for the appel lant ; Mr. Wawa and Mr. Lush for the respondents. The arguments haring been concluded, Dr. Lushington said that this not being a regular appeal, but a special reference by her Majesty, the usual course was simply to report to her Majesty, and not to give any inti mation of the opinion of the ccuncil until they had re ceived her Majesty's commands. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.-SATURDAY. enTneas aT Nos has 111 LON MlL—Bonus LO/ID r....••• Ale lirsciAL Juan.. BOWDIN o. 131111ARMAX.-CAIRIERS' v DRIVIXO. This wu an action to recover damages in respect of Geniis injuries done to the plaintiff by the defendant's servants. 3k. B. Jena, 12. C., and Mr. Phiska appeared for the THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, JULY 4, plbintiff; Mr. Sejeant Wilkins and Mr. Willes were for the de feadant. Mr. E. James said that the plaintiff in this case was Mrs. E A—Bowden, a lady 66 years of age. and that the real de fondants were the Great Western Railway Company, to whom Mr. Waterman. the well known carrier, had disposed rof his business. Upon the 23rd of October last, Mrs. Bowden was creating over the roadway of Southamptonditreet, Mornangton-crescent, whea • large carrier's Mt belonging to the defendant, sud denly came round the corner, and so great was the velocity at which it was going, that before able could get out of the wee, she was knocked down, and the calf of her leg sioleutly injured. The result of the accident was thiA most probably the plaintiff would be crippled during the remainder of her lite. She had therefore brought the present action, and the learned gentleman trusted that the jury would give such damages as to com pensate her as far as possible for her misfortune. In support of this ease the plaintiff was called. She stated that about two o'clock on the day in question, cur was knocked down and injured in the manner described by her counsel. She did not bear the driver call out to her. Some other parties who were on the spot when the accident occurred, were also called. One of them stated lb it the driver was seated on the back part of the cart, in such a position that he could not see his horse's head. Mr. Tunaley, the surgeon who attended Mrs. Bowden, said she had been confined to her bed sic weeks, and had suffered very much from the injuries she received. Mr. Serpent Wilkins addressed the jury for the defence. Although the main points of the plaintiffs's case were not controverted it was a significant fact that, while the injuries were received in the mouth of October, Mrs. Bowden never' made any claim until the Itth of December. The fact was that the real fault—or, more properly speaking, misfortune —rested with the plaintiff herself. The accident happening upon a rainy day, Mrs. Bowden was prevented by her um brella frem seeing the cart. Thedriver observing this celled out to her, but she appeared to be somewhat deal and took no heed; hence the accident occurred. The van sou only going at the rate of five miles an hour, which was proved by the feet that it was pulled up within a very few verde. The driver, and some persons who witnessed the affair, proved the statement for the defence. Lord Campbell summed up. His lordship remarked that he thought there was nothing in the fact of Mrs. Bowden having delayed making a claim for a few weeks, taking into consideration the injury she appeared to have sustained she could have hardly made a claim sooner. The jury returned • verdict for the plaintiff, damages Mt Lord Campbell said, now that the case was over, he thought it right to my that vehicles should net go at the pace they very often did, more especially as they were turning the corner of a street. It was impossible to go along the streets of London without often seeing her Majesty's subjects often placed in fearful peril. It was only a short time since that Mr. Commisaioner Phillips met with an accident under circumstances similar to this case, whereby his valuable services were nearly lost to the public. It was no use shouting to prevent the consequences of reckless driving; indeed, the hearing of a sudden shout, by alarming persons, deprived them of their pretence of mind, and led to the very consequences which were meant I to be avoided. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.-SVITADAY Biloxi Ma. Coannuaoxia Pinups. IN TUB MATT/LA 01 JOHN Crams--IllN This insolvent, a young man, who had been a hair dresser, in Orford-street, was opposed by Mr. Dowse, on the part of three creditors, and supported by Mr. Cooke. The complaint was that the insolvent had by pleading four pleas, put one of the opposing creditors to considerable law expense, and had in addition made a fraudulent dispo sition of his property by giving an undue preference to a person named Mann. The case4oocapied some hours, and in the course of the in vestigation it appeared that Mr. Redshaw, one of the oppos ing creditors, happened to go into the prison, where the insolvent was confined, and he admitted that he told the insolvent that if he would arrange about a fifty pound bill which he bad given, and was in the hands of another creditor, be (Redshaw) would not oppose him. Mr. Commissioner Phillip, held that after such an ad mission Redshaw could have no individual ground of com plaint. According to the established practice of the insol vent court, • person so applying, had afterwards no locus standi. The saw investigated on the question of defence and making away with property. The insolvent had given a bill of sale to a person named Mann, by which one of the opposing creditors was defeated in his execution. It ap peared that the insolvent had been in prison since January, and he told one of the creditors that if he did not oppose him it would save him twelve months' imprisonment. Mr. Commissioner Phillips was of opinion that the two paints had been established, and notwithstanding the time the insolvent had been in prison, it was his duty to stark the cue by a judgment. He therefore pronounced • judgment of fora calendar months for a vexatious defence and for giving an undue preference to Mann. ' 853. the terminus of the Loader, Brighton, and South Coast Railway, at London-bridge. Mr. T. Smith stated that, on Sunday 'veiling last, he brought his wife and family from Sutton, where they had been staying for some time. They came by a train, which arrived at the London-bridge terminus at a Q uarter to nine o'clock. It was then raining in torrents. He 'Gauntly went to the cab-rank on the other side, and engaged defendant to take him and his family home. Defendant was standing with others in the regular rank, and refused to take him. He said he was hired previous for the next train. In fact, all the other cabmen said the same. He then told the de ' (=dant to show his badge, but he refused, and he immedi ately went to the cab inspector, who told him that all the cabs were engaged, and that he could not be accommodated there. Witness inquired who had engaged them, when he replied, I have." He then put his band on the cab door and insisted upon being conveyed by the defeadant, but at the time he was speaking a tr:in came in from Brighton, and the whole of the cabs were instantly tilled and lett the I station. Witness was then put to great inconvenience, by being compelled to go tome distance to get a conveyance, and himself and all his family got drenched with rain. Mr. Acton, one of the eupe , intendents of the railway, in formed his worship that he should be able to prove that de fendant and all the other eabmenort the rank were individu ally enata_ted prior to Mr. Smith's arrival. Mr. Combe said, if he could prove that there would be an end of the case. The railway had, contrary to his expecte- Cone, showed a proof of previous contract, therefore he must dismiss the summons. The complainant said it was very bard that there should be such a distinction with the company's customers. A person front Sutton or anywere else ought to be accommo dated as well as one from Brighton. Mr. Acton s►id the cabs for the Epsom line were always kept outside, and it would have been nearer and much safer for Mr. Smith to bare gone outside. THE POLICE COURTS. BOW-STREET. John Berger, a young man of good appearance, who de scribed himself as a wanes' exile from Austria, and teacher of foreign languages, was charged with severafrobberies of hotels, &c. Charles Abbott, landlord of the Nag's Head, James street, Covent-garden, stated that the prisoner called at his house on the evening of the 24th of June last, sad requested a bed, being very much exhausted, owing to a long journey from Manchester. He had no luggage, having left it, he said, at the railway station. He paid Is. for some refresh ' ment, and was shown into his room ; but when he was passing out of the house the next morning, witness observed that he was extremely bulky—his body, legs, &c., being more than twice as large as they appeared to be the previous night. His suspicions being thus aroused, he caused the prisoner to be retained in the coffee-room until the arrival of a policeman, when it turned out, on their causing lien to tinders& himself, that he had a suit of witness's clothes under his own, besides a silk dress, some petticoats, &c., belonging to witness's wife, which had been stolen from the adjoining bed-room, and which the prisoner wore as under linen. The value of the stolen property was about 71. Police constable 132 F deposed to having found a pawn broker's duplicate upon the prisoner, which, it had been since discovered related to a valuable picture belonging to M. Soyer. The picture war produced in court, and proved to be a small Canaletti, valued at 1001. It was pledged by the prisoner on the 24th of June, at the shop of Mr. Neste, pawnbroker, near Manchester square. M. Boyer deposed that he occupied apartments at 8, Great Russell-street, and the picture produced was hung up in one of his roam He was residing at his country house when the pigeon was stolen; but on ascertaining his loss, he caused a dasselptlea of the painting to be left at the various iodise Mien, awl an Saturday last he heard of its having Wes traced ts • pawnbroker's is Manchester-square. Mary Ann Nicholls, a waitress at the Caledonian Coffee house, 8, Great Russell-street, identified the prisoner as a young man who took some refreshments end slept in the house the night before M. Soyer's picture was stolen from that gentleman's apartments. The prisoner paid for his lodging and refreshments. The prisoner statet that he received the picture from an Italian, who had gone to Turkey, and he took the wearing apparel at the Nag's Head out of sheer poverty. Mr. Henry committed him for trial. Thomas Chinn, driver of cab 1,574, was charged with demanding more than his legal fare from Mr. Robert Kee ley. the comedian, of the Adelphi. Mr. Keeley said, on Tuesday morning last he tdok the defendant's cab from the worth end of Sloane-street, and rode to Maiden-lane, Bedford-street, Strand, where he ten dered Is. Bd., the fen he always paid fur the same ride every day. The cabman said, "This won't do for me. I want another twopence." Witness replied, "Do you, though ? Well, now 1 think that I want twopence also; for your fare is only 10.4 d." Defendant replied, "We don't do that sort of thing. Give me your name and address, and I shall summons you to Bow-street." Witness complied with this request, the defendant being very particular about his Christian name, and Paid," By the bye, I have a quarter of an hour to spare, and I'll go to Bow-street, too." Accordingly witness walked era to the court, the defendant following him, accompanied by a number of people, who seemed to take a lively interest in the squabble. When close to the court the defendant said, " I rather think I am wrong, sir, after all ;" and then offered to give lthe twopence change, and drive witness back to the stage door of the Adelphi for nothing. But witness, to settle the question for ever as to the fare between Elloanwstreet and Maiden lane, so as to spare himself a recurrence of these unpleasant scenes in the street, persisted in taking out the summons, without desir ing, however, to press har dl y en the defendant, who, as he had requested witness particularly to admit, " was not insolent." Mr. Henry fined the defendant 21., and 2s. costa, which sums were immediately paid. Thomas James Parker and Thomas Sadkr, were brought up on the charge of having extensively robbed Meseta. Tallis, the well-known publisher of St. John•street. Mr. Wakeling appeared for the prosecution, and disclosed a systematic fraud of great magnitude. His clients, he said, employed numerous canvassers in their trade, and many were now scattered about, soliciting orders for works pub lished by them, amongst which, in particular, were " The Life of the Duke of Wellington," and " The History of Australia." The prisoner Sadler was employed in the latter capacity, and, with others so engaged, had contrived, in conjunction with Parker, who was one of the clerks of Messrs. Tanis, to plunder them of upwards of SOW., the agents being in the habit of making a return of fictitious or ders to Parker. who gave cheques for the commission in proportion thereto, and afterwards, it is alleged, shared the money so obtained. Evidence havirg been given that no such persons were in existence as those described on the se veral lists of orders given in by Sadler, and also facts crimi nating the other prisoner, Mr. Wakeling said it would be absolutely necessary, for the ends of justice, that the pri soners should be remanded, to give a chance to apprehend other parties. The prosecutors had already discovered defalcations for the amount named, and were hourly making further serious discoveries. Mr. Lewis, for Parker, wished to know if the magistrate intended to send the ease for trial. _ _ Mr. Come said be should certainly do that, mad he agreed with Mr. Wakeling that a remand would be advisable. Under the circumstances, however, he would take bail for Parker ; himself in 2001., and two sureties in 1001. each. The prisoners were then remanded. SOUTHWARK. James Farrar, a cab driver, badge No. 876, was eara wooed for rofasiiig to take a tare while plying far bin in LAMBETH. Eliza Pullen and William Harris, who described himself as a lighterman, were placed at the bar on the following charge. Mr. Edwin Powell, sexton of the parish of St. Mary's, Lambeth, deposed that about three o'clock on Friday after noon the female prisoner called at the Vestry-hall, and said she wished to put up the banns of matrimony between herself sod a young man, named William Cleeling, and, atter making the entry in the book, she tender , d him a halt sovereign in payment of the fee. He gave her Be. in change and she went away. Recollecting immediately after that he had heard that a counterfeit half sovereign had been passed on a sexton in the city, in payment of the fees for banns, he examined the half- sovereign more minutely, and then discovered it to be bad. He in consequence followed her, and, finding her in company with the male prisoner, he de manded the Se. he bad given her. After some hesitation she gave him back the change, and demanded the halt sovereign back, but he refused to give it up, and ultimately gave both into custody. The wife of a police constable deposed to having seen both the prisoners together before the female went into the Vestry-ball, and soon after she saw the woman join the man again, a minute or two before Mr. Powell came up. Mr. Jarman, from the office of the Solicitor of the Mint, addressing the magistrate, said, that since the prisoners had been given into custody, information had reached him that the female had paned a counterfeit sovereign under pre cisely similar circumstanees as that of the half sovereign. The person to whom she had passed the former had been to the court, and identified the prisoner, but could not wait to give his evidence, and he (Mr. Jarman) bad to request • remand to a future day. They were both well known utterer' of base coin, and he had no doubt that other charges would be made out against them. The prisoners were remanded for a week. THAMES. Caroline Barnes, and Louisa Johruon, women of the town, were charged with hocussiog and robbing Mr. W. J. Spence-, a muter lighterman and barge owner of Lower Queewstreet, Rothsrhithe. It appeared from the evidence that a few evenings sine*, Mr. Spencer met with the prisoner Barnes in the neighbaur hood of Ratcliffe Highway, and after treating her, was im prudent enough to accomnany her to her lodgings, at an infamous howe, kept by Johnson, a woman of colour, at No. 3, Albion - build i ngs, Shadwell, where sailors are " t aken in and done for." At that time Mr. Spencer was quite sober. The two women complained that they were bsth hungry and thirsty, and Mr. Spencer gave Johnson a sovereign and told her to fetch some bread and cheese and a pot of ale. The woman went upon the errand, arid returned and gave Mr. Spencer the change, which he put into a canvas bag, which then contained 19 sovereigns, and 19s. in silver. The woman, Johnson, presented a glue of the ale which she had brought to the prosecutor, and he had no sooner drank it than be fell back on the bed and became stupefied. In this state he continued, as he believed, for about three hours, when he was aroused from his stupor by some one dragging his pocket away. He looked around him and saw Barnes only in the room, and, upon looking at his trowsen, disco- I vend they had been cut through, and that his pocket, con tamping his bag of money was gone. The prisoners were apprehended. On taking Barnes into custody she told the policeman ' that all she had of the lighterman was 10e. On the way to the station-house Johnson said, I don't see why I should be lagged (transported) for Carry Barnes, she robbed the lighterman after I left the house." Mr. Ingham remanded the prisoners for a week. COTTON.—Ltexturooi, JULY 2.—The market closed with firmness, and, compared with yesterday's rates, prices of Americans and all kinds were unchanged. Exporters bought fair and good fair Boweds in quantity. The sales to-day . are estimated at 8,000 bales, and comprise 7,000 Americans (1,500 for export) ; 200 Pernam and Maranham, Od. to 7d.; 100 Bahia, 81d.; 150 Egyptian, 61d. to 10d. ; and 500 Surat, 31d. to Old. Maitetturnit, JULY 2.—We have had a very firm mar ket, both for cotton yarns and cloths, and a moderately fair business has been effected. The home demand for yarns is steady, and a moderate business is doing for the continent. In some eases cloth is a little chant. Messrs. Du Fay and Co. give a favourable view of the transactions of the whole of the past month, showing a more favourable Iresult than was to have been expected. They say, " The transactions during the month have been large in goods of various descriptions, considering the state of - European pc titles. For India and China very little has been done, and prices of goods chiefly suitable for the East have been somewhat easier. The demand for 7.8 and 9.8 printers and shirting' has been extensive, and an advance of lid. per niece has been readily granted. In domestics and long cloth • good deal has been done; the prices of the former are 1-16 d. to Id. per yard higher, and long cloth lid. to 3d. per piece. There are few, if any, stocks on hand of these goods. the purchases in cambria and juonete have been to a fair extent at rather higher prices. Velveteens and velvets have again risen in pries, owing to an active de mand and the probability of • higher cat of dyeing and finishing. In yarns, the demand experienced has been chiefly for the home market, and considering the limited transactions which took place for foreign markets, prices I have been remarkably well sustained; an advance has been paid en some descriptions of water, as well as on the higher and finer numbers of mule. It is evident from what we stated of the marketin general that a somewhat higher range of prices would have prevailed but for the unsettled state of politics." We perceive that the expansion of the foreign trade during the put six months, notwithstanding interruptions to some markets, has been large. The exports to China hays exceeded those during the same period of last year by 3,000,000 lbs. of cot ton yarn, and 16,600,000 yards of cloth ; whilst to India for the same period the excess of exports is 3,000,000 lbs. of yarn and 24,000,000 yards of cloth. The total exports to China, in fact, have been 7.240,000 lbs. of yarn, 104,000.000 yards of cloth; whilst to India they have reached 14,487,000 of yarn, 181,000,000 yards of cloth. The most sur f prising increase of exports in the six months has been that to the less extensive market for our goods of the United States, 48,000,000 yards of plain and printed calicoes having been sent there in excess of the goods exported to that quarter in the corresponding six months of last year, without having produced a glut. There has been an increase in exports to British North America Use of 7,500,000 yards of cloth, and to Australia of 10,000,000 yards of cloth. Taking the whole of our ex ports, the decrease of yarns to Hamburg, Holland, Belgium, Sardinia, and Turkey rather more than balance the increase ; 1 but the decrease in experts of cloth (the principal of which are to Turkey and the Brazils), amounts only to 36,000,000 yards of cloth, "plait an increase to other markets of 138,000,000 yards. The markets to which a decreased export of cloth has taken place are Naples, Turkey (10,600,000 yards), Egypt, Portugal, Brazils, British West Indies, and St. Thomas : the incre.,ae has been to Hamburg, Gibraltar, Chili and Peru (6,000,000 yards), Mexico (8,000,000 yards), British North America, United States, India, China, Africa and Australia. There is still much reason to fear a pro lodged turn out of operatives, and the strikes in Manches ter are extending, whilst there has been no compromise yet effected at Stockport. A great meeting of the em ployers of the whole district is to take place at Manchester on Tuesday to consider the propriety of a combined resist ance. WOOLLEN CLOTH.—Limos, Jinx 2.—We have had an excellent market to-day. There has been a good brisk business done in nearly all kinds of goods suitable for the fall trade. Prices are firm. Stocks continue without any' material alteration in the cloth-halls. The mills in the clothing district are well employed. There has been a fair trade done in the warehouses during the week. HARDWARE.—Bismtxo HAM, JULY 2.—Trade here continues steady, all the reports relative to it being highly satisfactory. Colonial letters received this afternoon have more than an average bulk of orders, and the manufse toren generally have as many as they can execute. In every 'important branch there is a degree of bustle and activity quite unknown till within the last two or three jests. • CORN.—CAMiRTDOI, July 2.—Our market for Wheat was 4s. per qr. dearer than last week, and more money was asked for other Corn. Wheat. 445. to 50s. Baxley, 301. to 325. Beans, 40s. to 441. Peas, 345. to 365. Oats, 20s. to 255. CANTERBURY, July 2.—We bad but a moderate supply of grain at market this week.

C•RLIBLI, July 2.—Of Wheat there was a good supply in to-day's market, with a brisk demand, and prices some what firmer than last week. A good supply of Oats met with slow sale at a decline of 3d. per bushel. There was an average supply of Barley, with a fair demand. COMIKEITZB, July 2.—A bilk demand he Wheat tat tau advance of as., the supply short. Beans and Peas about equal to last week in value, with but few on sale. I GLOUCE4TIII4 July 2.—There being • large fair here next Tees•lay, the attendance at this day's market was small. Farmers demanding 2s. to 3, per quarter more money for Wheat, millers acted with much reserve. Foreign Wheat was held for a similar advance, but few transactions . . were reported. Barley brought 6d. pee: quarter more money. B •ens very firm. Oats GI dearer. Imports of the week nding July 2: Wheat, 2,619; Barley, 613; Oats, 2,167 ; Beans, 201 p. GuILUTURD, July 2.—There was a good supply of Wheat, which was in request, and realised an sdi &nee of 4s. to 51. per qr. Wheat, 40s. to 625. Barley, 275. to 325. Oats, 20s. to 241.

Tares,2os. te2,51. Rye, 19s. to 21s. ANCH EST ER, July 2.—The very excited accounts from Mark-lane and Liverpool have caused an animated feeling in the flour trade here during the week. For fre.h Erghsh manufacture, of which the aumilies fur some time past have been very limited, considerably higher prices were demanded, which clucked sales; but a fair amount of business was 'done at an advance of Is. to 2s. per sack, and Is. per barrel on American. In other articles there was no perceptible change. It.on has fallen daily. The imports from abroad into Liverpool are to a liberal extent of wheat, beans. Indian corn, and flour ; but from other sources the arrivals arc amity. At our market this morning wheat ad vanced 4d. to 6d. per 70 lbs. On flour we raise our quota tations 2s. per sack and Is. per barrel. Oats and Oatmeal ruled firm at late rates. The weather fine to-day, with a more settled appearance. NEWCASTLZ-UPON-TYNI, July 2.—The trade during the present week has shown more steadiness, the im proved reports from Mark-lane having given a decided check to t h e downward movement. On Tuesday an ad vance of fully Is. per qr. was established upon the best Wheats, but, es the week advanced, holders raised their pretensions, which had the effect of checking business ; fac tors, however, remained exceedingly firm, and declined making the slightest concession. In the early part of the week the best south country red Wheats commanded 535. 61. to 54e. 6d., whilst good runs of Hamburg red were to be had at 50.. to 51s. perqr., choice white Wolgast at the same time making 58s. per qr., all weighed 63Ibs. per bushel. Flour sold at an improvement of 6d. to 10. per sack, but in the value of other articles little change of moment has oc curred, although the tendency was upward. At oar market this morning we had a moderate show of Wheat from the growers, but from the coast as well as from abroad the arrivals are to a fair extent, a portion of which has gone direct into the hands of the millers. Fresh-thrashed samples being wanted, sold freely at an enhancement of 3s. per qr., and although the same advance was obtained upon south I country and foreign, the amount of business done was not large, our millers wishing to see another Mark-lane report previous to operating further. For a very nice parcel of Norfolk red 565. was acquired, select runs being at the same lime saleable at 545. to 5.55., and thin Lincolnshire at 505., whereas Holstein red fetched 545. ; Mirka, 505.; Archsogel, 45x.; and superior Wolgast white up to 60s. per quarter, weighed 63113.1. per boatel. Upon Flour we raise our quotations fully 21. per sack, at which advance there was a steady but not active demand. Rye was rather more enquired for. Grinding Barley scarce and wanted, and the same remarks will apply to fine tender si anon-made Malt. Beans and Peas without change. With Oats we were moderately supplied, and the recent large supplies being well cleared off, all descriptions sold freely at an improvement of 6d. to ls. per quarter. The arrivals this week are : Wheat, coastwise, 3,271 qrs.; foreign, 3,610; Barley, foreign, 97; Malt, coastwise, 250; Oats coastwise, 80; Fees, foreign, 96; Beans, coastwise, 60 ; Flour, 1,985 sacks. Nortwtcd, July 2.—To-day a small attendance at market, farmers chie being engaged in the hay fields. A fair quantity of Wheat; 4s. per qr. higher prices were &Mod, and in a great many instances obtained ; for 611 be. 50s. was paid. Flour was in request, but, millers amities such high prices, sales were checked, and little business done f.o.b. ; 31s. is the nominal price. Barley trade none, except for grinding purposes, and which made full prices. Beans and Peas were held for Is. per qr. advance, and made it before the elm of the market. Oats were a free sale at Is. per qr. advance. Wheat, white, 529. to 58s. per qr. ; red, 48s. to 50s. Barley, grinding, 28s. to 30s. Beans, 385. to 435. Peas, 389. to 40e. Oats, 245. to 275. Fine household Flour, 375. per sack of 2801b5., f.0.b., purchasers finding sacks and claiming one month's credit. PETERBOROUGH, July 2.—The weather since our last report has been very unsettled. A great quantity of rain has fallen and some of the low lands are again flooded. On Wednesday a very high wind caused considerable damage to the growing Wheats, by breaking the stem of the plant, otherwise the crops generally have improved lately . At this day's market the farmers began by asking very Irregular prices, they, however, sueeeeded in obtaining fully 3s. per quarter above last week'. rates and but few sellers thereat. Spring corn of all kinds is quite nominal. An advance on last week's prices would have been readily conceded, but scarcely a sample 'hewing.—Wheat, red, 6611i5. to 581b5., 425. to 445. per qr. ; do., 601bs. to 611b5., 45a. to 495. ; do. 62Ibs. to 631b5., 40s. to 635. ; do., white, 2s. to 3s. per qr. extra; Barley, grinding, 28s. to 30s. per imperial qr. ; do., malting, nominal ; Beans, 6611b5., 42a. to 445. per qr. ; Oats, li d. to 12d. per atone. READING, July 2.—The markets generally during the past week having experienced • rise, inducea farmers to ask extravagant prices for wheat, the millers, however, acted cautiously, though some submitted to an advance of 4s. per qr. Trade ultimately became dull, and closed from 2a. to 3a. dearer than last week. Other corn without alteration. Oats a short supply. Wisuacu, July 2.—We have an extremely small supply of all kinds of grain at to-day's market, and owing to the excited accounts from Mark-lane, our farmers asked such prices for Wheat as precluded business to any extent, but in the little done, 3s. to 4s. per quarter advance was made. Spring Corn is in good demand at rather more money. WORCKBI7II, July 2.—There wu a full supply of Wheat from the farmers, for which very high rates were demanded, but the trade ruled dull at 2s. to 3s. per quarter advance. Higher prices were demanded, but could not be obtained, for Barley. On Oats the turn was in fnvourof the seller. beans sold slowly at the currency of this day se'naight. We had very few enquiries for Peas. YORK, July 2.—We have only a small show of Wheat at this day's market, which hu met an advance of 3s. per qr. since this day sen'night. Flour has risen 3s. per sack. In other articles no alteration. Prices : Wheat, white, 58e. to 601. per qr. imperial ; red, 561. to 575. ; Beans, 40s. to 425. ; Malt, 682. to GO,. ; Oats, 10d. to 100. per stone of 141 b.; Flour, 425. to 445. per sack of 2801bs. KIRKCALDY, July 2.—At our country markets this week our farmers were shy sellers of Wheat, and, although lat terly 2s. per qr. advance was offered, no great quantity changed hands. Other grain much as last week. Here to day we had a good supply of Wheat, which sold quickly at Is. to 2s. per qr. advance on last week's rates. Barley and Oats in small supply ; sales were made at same prices as last week. Wheat, 48s. to 555. 6d. per qr. ; Barley, 28s. to 325. . • Oats, 19s. to 23e. 6d.; Oatmeal, per bag of 2801b5., 295. to 30s. WaTutronn, July 2.—Our arrivals this week are con fined to maize, of which two cargoes have been got in. Of farmers' corn we have not seen a single sample exhibited, while the receipts by boat have been unusually small. Wheat: the sudden advance realised on this article in the English markets has produced corresponding results here; large speculative purchases have been made during the week, at steadily improving prices; and all qualities must be quoted 2s. per banal dearer since last Saturday. Oats also have been in better request, and holders have suc ceeded in extorting a further advance of 3d. to 4d. per barrel from needy purchasers. Indian Corn has receded another 3d. per barrel, at which decline there is a good consumptive demand. Flour is in short supply, and commands a ready tale, at an improvement of Is. to le. 6d. per sack. Imports during the week : Indian Corn, 3,140 qty. ; Flour, 50 brim. Experts : Barley, 860 brls. ; Oats, 3,190 ; Flour, 1,080 sacks ; Oatmeal, 110 cuts.
