The plaintiff nmy brother-in-law. I have known hist about 16 years. lie was formerly an attorney practising at Peterburusgh. lie is about 38 or 3) years o:d. I mar ried the plaintiff tu his wife on the 6th of August, 1810. She was the daughter of a gentleman named Tomlin, of large fortune, in Northamptonshire, and thu owns, of Fotheringey Castle. A sum of mooey sou given to the plaintiff upon the marriage. but no settlement war made. Mr. Tomlio bought a place called the Vineyard, at Peter borough, where the the and his wife resided. I used to visit them up to the time of this offence. They appeared very happy and to be very kind to each other, cad if the plaintiff erred at all it was on the score of indulgence. Two children were the issue of the marriage. They were both • and one was aged 12 and the other 10. The Dean of Petah 'rough, and other persons of distinction, used to visit them. In the numb of March the pltintiff made &communication to me with regard to the conduct of his wife and Mr. Baldwin. Ile appeared excessively pained, and not able to regulate himself. I consulted other members of the family, and the result of our advice was given to the plaintiff. Mrs. Atkinson war directed by her medical man to live as much near the sea side as poa-thle, sad during her absence Mr. Atkinson continued in his business at Peterborough. Cross-examined-1 saw more of the plaintiff and his wife for the ant two years after their marriage than subse quently. I always considered them to Mon very friendly terms. I resided at a distance of twenty-five miles from Peterborough, but I and my wife generally stayed there, at the house of the plaintiff's father, for more than a month every year, and 1 was then constantly in the habit of seeing them. I never sward that the marriage took place against the wishes of the lady's family, but I knew there was some misunderstanding about • settlement. The plaintiff sug gested something to be introduced into the settleasent,which Mr. Tomlin would not accede to, sad no settle meet was consequently made. This took place about • week before the marriage. I am not aware that the plaintiff was frequently away from hie wife fur • considerable time, and that he pseud a gond deal of time is the company of sporting rasa. I have seen them out walking and in company together. I have seen the lady's father at the plaintiff e house at Peterborouch. Ido not know that the plaintiff's affairs became embarrassed after be took the brewery. I have no reason to think an • of the sort, but rather the contrary, He was not in • state of poverty certainly during the years 1810, and 'SI. I believe that he still has • very comfortable inmate. I heard Mee. Atkinson got into • bad state of health after the birth ee the second child, and that she went to the ass-side; sad daring the year 1882 I have no doubt that she was be many weeks away by herself. I oath dined at the Vineyard when the 4:Attendant was present, in 1862. At that time be was a new acquaintance. In February, 1162, the defendant wee laid up with • serious illness, and was enallaed to ha bed, in the plaintiff's donee, for a work co two. I think I have heard the plaintiff my that his wife west into his bedroom to wait upon him during his IMMO. I have also beard the plaintiff say that the defendant eta living for week, in the honest at Itamigate with his wife when be was not there. It WY always arranged that Mr. Baldwin should live with them. I have heard that be used to send a ash or • joint of meat or such things, but I heard that he paid the whole of the expenses of the establishment. I know that the plaintiff , received mosey from the defendant, but I understood that it was Weed upon him by the defendant after be had re tailed. The money, I understood, was to be invested in the brewery. It was 100 f. lam not aware that the defendant was to receive interest for the money. I remember hearing of the plaintiff having to give up the brewery, and that he requested Mr. Baldwin to get him some public appoint ment. 114-irdamined—l beard that the defendant invited the plaintiff to leave Pe Is and emir with his wife to London, when be pee to get him an appointment through the influence of Lord Derby. I Mud that the plaintiff was entherremed. He had 23,0011 invested is the brewery. He kept an open and a elate earrings, and Mrs. Atkinson usually rode is is them.

Mrs. Atkinson is a lady of oessiderstde ppeenasal attraction,. They appeared to live es the mom efeetiosate terms. I heard of their desiring to leave Peterborough, as it did am agree with the health of the Wy. There were other reasons, such em disliking the place sad the people. Mr. Atkinson took a warm part in politics. la consequesee of their wish I endeavoured to obtain an appointment for the plaintiff la Ludas. I have ens letters written by the lady to her husband, and they wens all couched in most affectionate terms. Some of the letters were written so lately u March let.

Re-ezanaised by Mr. Burrell—They appeared on all ociessioas to be most affectionate —jut as I have men you with year wife. (Laughter.) James Horah—l was coachman te the plaintiff for nearly three years, sad I was at Due Court when the plaintiff and his wife went there in 1851. I used to take Mrs. Atkinson to the residence of Mr. Huntley at that house, and I seed to see Mr. Baldwin with her, and be frequently visited at Dun Court after Mr. Atkinson had goer bolsi to Peterborough. I semi to take letters for her to Mr. Baldwin, and she told me to be ears not to deliver them to any one else, sad I used to bring him beck in the pony chaise to Dane Court. Mr. Baldwin was stopping at some club-honse at Ramsgate at this time. He used to visit at the house of Mr,Jiviakfv.T.. Crosisezeraised—Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson used Us chive out almost every day at Aam►gate while Mr. Atkinson was there. He very seldom accompanied them. Sometimes be walked on the pier while Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson were there. James Cummins said I was footman to the , 1 plaintiff after he returned from Dane Court to Peter- borough, in 1851. I remember acting Mr. Baldwin very frequently at the plaintiff's house. One summer evening I was ordered to take the wine and dessert upon the lawn. Mrs. Atkinsta went out to the brewtry, and I went into the garden to fetch the glasses • and as I weal past the, dining-room door I heard a rustling, and Mrs. Atkinson said, " Really. Mr. Baldwin, I saw a cricket, but I bays not caught it." (A laugh.) Mn. Atkineon was stooping down, and Mr. Baldwin looked quite fatigued. (L aug ht er .) I heard nothing more, except that Mrs. Atkinson said she war sorry she had not caught the ericket, and that she had disturbed Mr. Baldwin from his sleep. Mr. Baldwin was wheeling and blowing. (Math laughter.) I could not see the conditions of the clothes of either of the parties as it was nearly dark. I have heard Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkin s°a kiss each other when they parted. Cross-examined—Mr. Atkinson was not in the house when this occurred. Be was generally absent the greater part of the day engaged in his business, 1 biers beard the sound of tritest, in the room where Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson were, and therefere I did not think it eatraordi: nary that Mrs. Atkinson shoal talk about takings. 1 did not tell anybody of my suspicions at the time except the maid servants, (A laugh.) I did not tell my mother that I thought something wrong had occurred. The defendant was rather embinatical, and need to whets* a good deal. (Laughter.) Mee. Atkinson had a silk dress on. I was in the service of the plaintiff about eight months. There was no way to get to the room when the dessert had been placed 'scut through the dining room. Re-examined—Mr. Atkinson came home to luncheon and dinner.

Mr. Baldwin was ovostently left there with Mu Atkinson. charge preferred against him was • heavy calamity, but there were other considerations which were tett to to of more importance to him as a man of honour, and which meet come home to the heart of every men, set ether counsel, jury, or judge, which affected him more then his own interest, namely, the dreadful issue involved to the unhappy lady. The result of the fatal hazard called • trial to her was, whether thf:7!te ist go forth to the world branded as an Adulteress —whether the peace happy M a rdi Tomlin, the daughter of - or beloved by all wL: . wealth, respectroie, ante i , Knew her- eh )uld be thus branded sled c3llsignetr 14? :cosiempt and oiegracs—to a state tar irons !!! ell itself. He did not ,'relieve, however, that when ...0 jury had heard the evidence he should last before them, they would return • verdict which would have such a result, and he would at once say, that according to his instructione, the only ob ject the plaintiff had in view was to obtain money from the defendant on any terms, and that to carry out that object he had not scrupled to expose to temptation her whom he bad sworn to cherish and to protect. The un fortunate lady herself would not be called to speak to the treatment and conduct she had experienced at the hands of her lorsband, hut he should be in a position, by other tes timony, to prove to the satisfaction of the jury, what the nature of that conduct had been, and if they should think that guilt had been proved, he was sure they would at the same time be satisfied that the plaintiff himself had been the sole cause of that guilt, and that ha wse not entitled to the slightest coasideration at. their bands. He would state to them what were the ac tual circumstances under which the plaintiff and his wife became connected. Miss Tomlin was, as he was in structed, a beautiful young woman, the daughter of a man of fortune, brought up in the enjoyment of every luxury and comfort, and who undoubtedly, from her position, was entitled to entertain the most brilliant expectations. She met the plaintiff at a public ball, and he was introduced to her, and at their second meeting he proposed marriage. Her father, her brothers, and every member of her family, were averse to it. They offered the meat strenuous opposition to it, but at last, yielding to the impression that the affections of the young lady were fixed upon the plaintiff, and out of regard to her feelings, her father reluctantly consented to the marriage. The plaintiff had made some proposals with regard to a settlement upon his wife, hut be could not carry them out, and the consequence was, that Miss Tomlin's lather declined to be a party to any settlement, and none was consequently made. Mr. Tomlin, however, from his circumstances, was enabled to give them material assistance, and upon the marnege taking place he permitted the plaintiff and his wife to have poesewion of a handsome residence and grounds called the Vineyard, at Peterborough, which hid been let for 3501. a year, but which he permitted the plaintiff to enjoy the use of for the stamina' sum of five shillings a year. He should show them that very shortly after the marriage, notwith standing the evidence they had heard to the contrary, that the plaintiff had treated his wife in the most cruel and unmanly manner. He left her for long periods, he never hardly was seen out with her, and he should show that in consequence of a malady which followed the birth of the second child, the unhappy lady was no longer an object to gratify his passion, and that he resorted to every means to get rid of her. The learned serjeant then referred to the introduction to the defendant, and said he should show that the plaintiff had endeavoured to obtain money from him, and that there was no doubt that he had deliberately permitted his wife to be with the defendant under the circumstances that had appeared in evidence, for weeks and months together,in the hope that she would be tempted, and that she would fall, and that through her ruin he might obtain money from the defendant. Did the jury ever hear of any husband, who had the slightest regard for his own honour or that of his wife, permitting • person wbo was almost a stranger to have en tirely unrestrieted intercourse with her at an idle watering place ? Would any man, who entertained the slightest feeling of honour, permit such a proceeding? lie should show them that the father of the young lady remon strated with the plaintiff in indignant terms upon his con duct in permitting a stranger to be dangling after his wife, and stated what the opiuiuc of the world was likely to be respecting it : and he should prove the offensive, disgust- inn, and unmanly replies that the plaintiff made to him when he did so. He should likewise show, by the plain tiffs own letters, that at the time when he was represented to be in good circumstances, he was in an almost hopeless state of embarrassment and difficulty; and that he was earnestly supplicating Mr. Baldwin to procure him some appointment. The learned serjeant then read several letters which he sail he should put in evidence; aad he was about to read some written by the wife of the plaintiff to her mother. ne-eiesainesi—After these thiage occulted I wltaessed a Iffereace in the conduct of Dlr. aad hire. Atk&neon toirs . ,d a each other. Frances Smith said—ln MS/ I was servant at a bouts in Royal terrace, Ramsgate, where the plaintiff and hi, wife had apartments. Mr. Baldwin also lodged th, r.. There was a sofa in the dining-room, at the back of foul, og doors which opened to a bed-room. While I was in thi s bed room upon one occasion when Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkin son had returned from a party, I heard *.dmetbitie take place in the adjoining room. There was a dreadful noise, and I though: the folding doors would 'oe fo r ced in, and gent down stain and told my knoll servants I was sure that something wrong was goir i f on. There was no oue in the dining-room at rut time but Mrs. Atkinson and the defendant. TM folding doors shook violently, as though the sofa was pressed against them. I have frequently seen Mrs. Atkinson and Mr. Baldwin kiss one another, and I have seen them sitting together on a sofa. Crouexamined—They had been to a ball on the night I have mentioned. Mrs. Atkinson and Mr. Baldwin had been staying in the house about a week at the time. It was Mr. Baldwin's bedroom I was in when I heard the folding doors shake. Mr. Atkinson did not come dawn until a fortnight before' they all left the apartments. No lady friend or relation of Mrs. Atkinson visited her while she was stopping in the house on Royal-terrace. Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson used to take their meals and walk out together. I don't know where they went tu. After Mr. Atkinson came home, Mr. Baldwin used to go to sleep at his club. There was not accommodation for both the gentlemen in the house. I said nothing to Mr. Aitk en about what I had seen, and I did not tell anybody until last May, when I was examined by the attorney for Mr. Atkinson. Mrs. Atkinson's children were staying with her. The eldest child appeared about eleven years old. I never observed that Mrs. Atkinson appeared to be in bad health. Charlotte Philpott said—l lived at No. 16, Nelson-cres cent, Ramagate, at the time Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson, Mr. Baldwin, and the children, were staying there. I My bedroom was under that occupied by Mrs. Atkinson, and Mr. Baldwin occupied one over it. Upon one occasion I heard Mr. Baldwin say to Mrs. Atkinson that it would be better for her to come to his bed-room than for him to come to hers, as he made such a noise in opening the door, and that it also made him cough, besides which, Charlotte slept in the room underneath, and she would hear all that took place. After this Mrs. Atkinson told me not to be alarmed if I heard a noise in the night, as Mr. Baldwin frequently went to the water-clout. I have seen Mrs. Atkinson sitting on Mr. Baldwin's knee, and his arm was round her waist. Another time I was taking up the tea, when Mrs. Atkinson came out of her room with her hair hanging about her face,' and she appeared very excited. Mr. Baldwin was in the room at the time. On the occasion of the Oaks of Wel lington's funeral, Mrs. Atkinson went to town, and when she returned she was crying, and she said she had missed Mr. Baldwin at the station, and she was afraid something had happened to him. She also said that if she lost him she should lose the best friend she ever had. Mr. Baldwin came home soon afterwards. Mr. Atkin son came down while Mr. Baldwin was thee, and there was a quarrel. Mr. Baldwin went out and Mrs. Atkinson sent me after him, and I found him on the pier, and at her request I told him to come to we her, and that she had told me to say she should not be happy till she had seen him. After this Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson appeared to be reconciled to each other. Cross-examined—Mr. Atkinson was quite aware that Mr. Baldwin was staying in the house with his wife. Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson never "minced," but used to talk quite loud, and I could hear every word they said. I did not put my ear to the keyhole. It was not at all neces sary that I should do so, as I could hear everything with out. He slept in the house with Mr. Atkinson's know ledge for several days. The quarrel took place on tho Wed nesday, and Mr. Atkinson inquired of me if I knew of any thing improper between Mrs. Atkinson and Mr. Baldwin, and I said I did not. My reason for telling this falseheod was that I knew Mr. Baldwin was going away, and I did not like to say anything against M. Atkinson. I said no thing when Mr. Baldwin came bask. I told the truth to the attorney, because I knew I should ho put on my oath. At the unmet the quarrel Mn. Atkinson said that her hus band had been endeavouring to take her character away, end she wanted to pack up her things and go home to ber father. When she said din, I did not tell her what I had heard take place between her and Mr. Baldwin. Re.esanuned—l never saw anything improper take place between Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson after the quarreL Mr. Atkinson appeared to be satisfied that no thing wrong bad taken place. By Mr. &Ilantine—After all this had happened Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson went up to London together. Susan Perry—l lived as ammo act Nelson-crescent while Mr. Baldwin and Mra. Atkinson lived there. One evening Mr. Baldwin came in about live o'clock, and Mrs. Atkinson said to him, "My dear, how late you are. Have you hart your dinner ?" After this Mrs. Atkinson told me not to be alarmed if I heard any one walking about in the night, as Mr. Baldwin was in the habit of getting up at night to go to the water-closet. I frequently observed while Mr. Atkinson was away the appearance of two persons having slept in the bed of Mrs. Atkinson, and that Mr. Bald. win's bed had not been slept in. Several mornings when was engaged in sweeping out the drawing.risorn Mr. Baldwin has come in with nothing bat his dressing own on, and when I went out I saw that Mrs. Atkinson's -door was ajar. I have also seen Mr. Baldwin lying upon the esti, and Mn. Atkinson was sitting by him with her dress tuned up. I also once saw Mr. Baldwin kiss Mrs. Atkinson just before she was going to bed. I mentioned all these things to the other servants. Cross.esamtsed—Mr.BaMwin had his breakfast at home, and be was generally at his dab the greater part of the day. In the evening, he and Mr.. Atkinson used to walk eat together, and they seemed very familiar together. I have never seen Mr. Baldwin kiss Mrs. Atkinson when her pus. band was present. Nobody made any inquiries of me as to what I had seen until last March. _ _ Mr. Chambers, however, objected to any letters written by the plaintiff's win being put in as evidence, and he con tended that such letters were inadmissible. The Chief Baron said that it the objection was pressed he must decide that the lettere were not legal evidesee. Berjeant Sbee said he regretted he was not alloyed by the rules of evidence to let the unhappy lady, by Ler letters, tell her own tale of the treatment she had experienced at the hands of her husband. He wished the jury to know the whole truth, but he had no doubt that the °Bret evidence be should lay before the jury would amply show what had been the nature of the conduct and the proceedings of the plaintiff. He then proceeded to argue that the evidence that had been adduced was totally insufficient to make out a cue of guilt, and in commenting upon the testimony that hod been given, be said that not ono of the witnesses ap peered to have said a word with regard to the circum stances which they represented they had witnessed until long afterwards, and be said that a man who was capable of acting as the plaintiff was proved to have dine in this transaction might he well supposed not to be very serupn loos in getting up a case likely to further his own views and what he conaidered to be his interest The learned ' ' rerjeant then referred to the letter of the defendant of the 24th of April, and said it had been truly ob served by a late learned judge that an old fool was the worst of fools, and he said that the probability was that the defendant, by being forced into the society of a beautiful young woman for so berg a time, might have been tt warmed up" to entertain a sort of affection for her which induced him to write sea a letter u this ; but he sub mitted that it was by no mesas a positive proof of guik, and that, taking into consideration that a conclusion ad- Terre to the defendant would involve the unhappy wife of the plaintiff in the same ruin, they ought to pulse before they came to a decision which would have that effect, aid that they ought not so to decide bat upon the most positive and conclusive testimony.

Upon that information he and all the defendautt lona fide I acted. — Mr. Peyton and Mr. Tyndall made similar statements. Mr. George Dawson esid—Before the arrest I knew the of the arrest with Mr. Tyndall. The —.want was issued, but I did not know the charge.

I saw Mr. Step.ans at about five or an, and also Mr. T. Smith and Mr. Hajoik. I went to see the plaiatiff and the baroness taken into eux tody. I believed them to be impostors. When making my statement, I could not tell its strict legal effect. But I fairly acted on what I believed to be the truth, and as I thought with the sanction of the magistrate. Mr. Paul Usinik said that he was Kossuth's minister of police and was in constant personal communication with Kossuth, and knew his intimate, and all persons of distinc tion who were associated with him. In July, 1851, he told Mr. Ryland, who came to make inquiries about the baro- ness, that it was shameless arrogance in her to say that she was intimate with Kossuth ; that she was a spy—a subordi nate spy—a servant to another spy ; that her book was a tissue of falsehood and "humbug Cross-examined—At page 60 of her book there occurs this statement: "Upon our arrival, having been announced to Kossuth, he rent us a message by Hainik, the minister of polies." That is not true. She has usis-spolt my name, and ha would not have sent his minister of police to a spy. I should have sent for her had it been nee sssss y for me to sea her. Her manners were those of a low person. 1 am sure that she was in quite a subordinate position—that of a servant. Mr. Griffith., the defendant's solicitor, proved that he had caused a subpoena to be served on Mr. Toulmin Smith (who was in attendance on the last trial), and that he fully es• petted him to appear until he received a medical cenificAte from which he learned that hie attendance was impossible. Mr. Serjeant Miller then addressed the jury in reply. Mr. Justice Maule, in summing up, said that it appeared to him that there was no substantial distinction between the cases of the four defendants. Thejury must be satisfied that the charge was made by the defendants, and that there was no reasonable end probable cause for the charge. The learned Judge concluded his address at • quarter past seven, when the jury retired to deliberate. Late in the evening they returned a verdict for the plaintiff— damages 8001. THE POLICE COURT& BOW-STREET. Mr. John Wood, the chairman ---- 7i the Board of Inland Be atteoded to prefer a charge against a cabman named Knowles, for taking more than his fire. Tho distance traversed being under a mile, Mr. Wood tendered 6d. in payment. The defendant demanded a shilling. C. mplainant said, "I will pay you a shilling it you like, but 1 warn you that I shall take out a summons against you." Witness then gave him the shilling and took the man's number, upon which the man begged him (Mr. Wood) to take the 61 back again, and let him off. Com. plainant declined the proposal, and took out the summons scoordingly. There was no incivility. The cabman said be was under the impression that par liament had given them a shilling for the first hiring since the "strike. _ _ iir=l:l;llfined hint 30s. and 21. costs, or fifteen days. The floe was paid. CLERKEN WELL. . . . Richard Archer, the driver of a aii,...appeared on a sum mons at the instance of the Commissioners of Metropolitan Police, for refusing to deliver to the hirer of his carriage a ticket with the number of the Stamp-office plate on such carriage printed thereon. Police constable 66 E division, having been sworn, said, that on the 13th of July, at eight o'clock in the evening, he was attracted by a crowd of persons near Compton-street, Brunswick-square, which arose from a lady disputing with the defendant about the fare, he having driven her from Portland-place to Compton-street, and demanded more than 6d. lle refused to show his badge or to give the printed ticket to the lady, who repeatedly asked him for it, b u t jumped on the box and was about to drive off. Witness seised the reins and endeavoured to stop him, with a view to get the number of his badge, when the defendant whipped the animal violently, with the evident intention of driving over him, bat he did not succeed in doing so. Mr. Tyrwhitt perused the act of parliament and said, the defendant was bound to offer and deliver the printed ticket to the hirer of his carriage when he or she got into the carriage The lady who hired him (defendant) woo not present, and there was no proof that he did not offer the ticket to the lady or deliver it to her ; he should therefore discharge him from the summons. On that head, the act was extremely stringent, and he ought not to he too eon fident. His conduct to the policeman, and refusing to show him his badge, iike , that was a separate and distinct offence, upon which be had not bean summoned, and there was an and to that, and he advised him to be cautious. WORSHIP-STREET. - Henry Lucy was charged before Mr. Hammill, with a series of wanton and unprovoked assaults, arising out of the recent strike amongst a portion of the labourers employed at the Louden Docks._ George Hassan, who was dressed in oriental costume, and described himself se a Greek interpreter, stated that while proceeding along the Whitechapel-road, on the mai• one afternoon, in the company of a foreman at the Docks and our of the labourers who had refused to take part in the recent strike, he was suddenly accosted by the defend. ant, who familiarly claimed his acquaintance, and pointing in a jeering manner at his beard, with the evident inten tion of insulting him, declared that he had the pleasure of shaving him when he Was a littl e boy. After diselaimiog his aequsintanee witness immediately crossed the road with his companion, at wham suggestion he entered a public house to escape from further molestation, but he was quickly followed by the defendant, who insisted upon his ° treating " him, at the same time proclaiming himself to be one of the men who had joined the strike. As he ap peared very much excited, witness was induced to order some beer, in the hope of quieting him, bat as soon as he had drunk it the defendant coolly placed the empty pot upon the counter, and instantly struck him a violent blow on the face, which blackened his eye, as it now appeared. The defendant followed up the attack by several other blows, but after a severe struggle he was overpowered and given into custody. Joseph Porter, the foreman, and Thomas Tilley, one of the labourers at the Docks, gave corroborative evidence, and the latter stated that in the course of his efforts to rescue the last witness from his assailant, he was also severely handled by the defendant, who struck bins a heavy blow on the jaw, which caused his mouth to bleed pro fusely. b 1;. Hanamill said it was every gross outrage, and ordered the defendant to pay a fine of 40s. for the first, sad 20s. for the second assault ' or to be committed in default for the respective terms of one month and 14 days to the lions* of Correction. SOU fUWABK. Edward Courtney, &journeyman boot and shoe maker, was charged with committing an assault upon Thomas Law ler, another boot and oboe maker. Complainant said he bad been for some time employed at Mr. Chester's, in the Waterloo-road, and he lodged at a beer house in Webber-street. On Monday morning last he took home some work, and after he had entered his room a minute or two, he wu called down by the landlady. He then saw the prisoner and two or three other' there, when the former asked him whether be worked at Mr. Chester's. He told him that he did, and was quite contented. The prisoner then said that the journeymen had all struck for wages there, and that be ought to do so also. Witness said that he should not do anything of the kind, as he had a good shop. They than wanted him to attend their meetings, and become a mem ber, and on his refusal the prisoner called him a scamp, and palled his nose twice, when he and his companions quitted the house. In cross-ezamination by Mr. Solomon for the defendant, witness said the prisoner was under the influence of liquor, and be drank some beer with him prior to the assault. He did not belong to any society, but the prisoner waned him to join the strike. Sarah Collard, the landlsdy of the beer-house, said she saw the prisoner and his companions enter the house, and ask for the complainant. The latter immediately joined them, when the prisoner made use of violent language towards him, and pulled his now twice. The complainant ' did nothing but put his hand up. Mr. Solomon said his answer to the charge was, that his client did not commit any assault whatever. He and two of his companions were drinking some beer at the bar, when complainant came up and threatened to pill their 1 noses. _ _ _ _ Aiezander Page, a journeyman bootmaker belonging to the strike, said, that he was with defendant at the time when complainant came and drank some beer with them. They were talking something about the strike, when com plainant said he would pull their noses. There was no as sault committed, and they never knew complainant until tkey met him in the beerhouse, neither did they know where he worked. Mr. A'Beckett remarked that from the evidence before him perjury had been committed on one side or the other, and had it been proved against the defendant he oho id have punished him with great severity. Had he beins charged with intimidating the complainant (which he might have been) he should upon proof have committed him to prison for a long period. Mr. Hal, for the complainant, here informed the magis trate that, if adjourned until a future day, witnesses could be produced to corroborate his cheat's testimony and prove the intimidation. . _ _ Mr. A'Beekett said he had made up his mind to send the ease. to the sessions, but if that was the use he would ad journ it until Tutsday next.

Mow Mews. liturge's MostMy Circular.) BIRMINONAX, Aug. 3.-Since we issued our last monthly circular, there has scarcely been a day without rain, with a lower temperature than any July since 1816 ; and the trade having continued in a state of excitement, English Wheat advanced 6e. per quarter; but this improvement has only extended to the better description of foreign, chiefly Baltic and American, whilst Danube and Black Sea qualities are only enhanced in value 3s. to 4s. per quarter. The Wheat crop in the aggregate will probahly.be the least productive of any since 1816, and unless the harvest of 1854 is very early, we may require an importation of all kinds of grain and bread stuffs greater even than that of 1847-probably not less than fifteen millions of quarters : but our present prices are sufficient to induce an import to this extent, tin. les. France should compete with us in the producing mar kets. In our early districts, with fine weather, reaping will commence the beginning of next week, but will not be general until near the end of the month. The stock of Wheat at Gloureirter,asstated below, has more than doubled during the mouth. Our present prices are : English, white, 6s. 6d. to las. ; red, 61. to 7s. 4d. • American, white, 7e. 2d. to 7s. 6J. ; Danzig, 7s. fk to Be. 9d. ; Baltic, red, 7s. to 7e. 6d.; Ghirka, 6s. 4d. to 6e.

There is • large bulk of straw on most of the land planted with Baxley, and it is much laid ; still, with fine weather from this time, it may provi a full average crop in quantity. All descriptions have adVanced since our lest Is. to 2a. per • qr. Our supplies of this article have hardly kept pace with the consumption, and grinding qua lities sell at 265. to 275.1 1 for Mediterranean, 28e. to 295. French, 30s. to 31e. Danish, per 3921 be. at Birmingham. Of the Oat crop, particularly in Scotland and Ireland, there are many complaints; in this part of the country the quantity grown is not importarit. The snivel. continue to be cleared off ex-ship at Gloucester at 21s. for black and light Irish I white, up to 221. to 235. for heavy grey and white. The few Dutch left at Gloucester were sold at 255. per 312 lbs. A few more cargoes are expected, The winter Beans are in many places blighted, and spring planted are reported to be deficient in pods. They continue relatively very high,- say English, 16s. 6d. to 17s. ; Egyptian, lbs. to 15s. 6d. ; French. 14s. to 14s. 6d. ; all per 196 lbs. at Birmingham. Peas, with favourable weather henceforward, may be a full average crop. White sell at 16s. Gd. per 196 lbs. here. Our et 'eke at Gloucester are: Wheat, 96,000 qrs. ; Barley, I 20,600 ; Oats, 5,500; Beans, 6,000; against Wheat, 45,000; Barley, 3,000 ; Oats, 8,000 ; Beans, 1,400, at the commence ment of the month; and our imports from beginning of the Bear : Wheat, 18.5,571 ; Barley,' 41,612; Oats, 53,845; ano, 12,585; against Wheat, 44,037; Barley, 36,357; Oats, 34,070; Beans, 3,260, in the same Nwriild in 1852. Several cargoes of Indian Corn sold at 12a. Gd. to 13s. 6d. per 196 lbs. at Gloucester. Millet is held at 115. to lle. 61. Dari, 12s. 6d. to 13e. per 196 lbs. at Gloucester. The Potato disease appears likely to be as destructive as in any season sine 1846. POLITICAL PUNISHMENTS AT VENICE.—The Official Ventre Gaulle of the 27th ult. contains a sentence pro nounced by the oourt-martial of that city, on twenty•sia persons, twelve of whom ere ey)r-danried to death for the rlon and concealment of arms ; two to six months' imprisonment in irons; two to five and eight months of simple arrest ; and five to periods of imprisonment varying bagmen a year and three months.
