DOE ON THE DEMISE Or CLARK C. TATON —Enter- ISENT.—CIAsIOUB QUEATION Or 11.ENTITY.—/hir WKS SR action of ejectment to recover possession of two cottages and a dissenting chapel at Norwood.—Strjeant Dowling, on opening the case to the jury, said that the circumstances ' which would be laid before them in this action were of rather a singular character. The plaintiff wae Mr. John Clark, a gentleman who formerly redded in London, and was pusessed of considerable property. In the year 1794 he married a young lady named Jane Baker, and three children were tee issue of that marriage. They lived very comfortably together till about the year Igo9, when dif ferences arose and they separated; and he should show the jury that Mrs. Clark ultimately went to tile at Norwood, where the resided a great many years, and during that period the property in question came into her posumion. During Mr rieidence in Norwood she became acquainted with the father of the defendant who was a milkman, and it appeased that they used to frequent the same dia.euting chapel, and a good deal of intimacy existed between them, and at the death of the lady, in 1813, old Tatom took possession of the property, and at his death, his vim, the present defendant, took it. His lord ship would however tell them, that Mrs. Clark being mar ried any property acquired by her belongtd to her husband, and if he should establish the fact that the (Lensed lady was in realita the wife of the plaintiff, he would be entitled to their verdict. The Rev. Mr. Drummond produced the register of mar riage. for the pariah of Chariton, in Kent, in 1794, and it aontsic , d ao entry of a musings on the let September be tween Jthri Clark and Jane Baker. Robert Watson deposed that the plaintiff bad resided in Franco for a great many years, and within the lest two years he had been in the habit of corresponding with him, and be believed the signature to the marriage registry was his hand writing. Mr. Harper produced a counterpart of a team executed by Mrs. Clark in 1825, for the ground upon which the buildings in question were erected.—Cross-examined : Mrs. Clark in structed roe that she was a widow, and she is so described in the deed. Mary Mn. Hudson said—My father and mother were on very intimate terms with Mr. Clark and his wile, and 1 re. member, when I was a little girl nine or ten years old, being taken to see teem, but I cannot recollect where. I re member the separation taking place, and, after Mrs. Clark went to live at Norwood, I used sometimes to take her the money which was allowed her by her husband. She used to live in one of the houses now in question, and let the other ; and these was a chapel between them. Old Tatom was a milkman. and used to do jobs about the premises for Mrs. Clark and after some time he lived in one of the bout e.—Crass-examined : I should say that Mrs. Clark was about 70 years old at her death. I hare never seen Mr. Clark since I was nine or ten years old. Martin, a builder, said—l was employed by the late Mra. Clark to do repairs sheet the houses toe her, and I assisted to tit up the chapel. She was on intimate tc rms with old Tatom.—Crusaexamined : I provided her funeral. The age put on the lid of the coffin was fifty-five, and she did not appear to be any older, or, at all events, nut more than two or three years. I always took her to be a woman about that age.—Re-examined : Old Tatum told me what age to put upon the coffin.—By Serjeant Shee : There was nothing to excite remark in this statement of her age. She certainly did not appear to be a woman fifteen or sixteen years older. Mary Shepherd said I hued in one of the cottages, and used sometimes to pay the tent to Mrs. Clark, and at others to old Tatum. Atter Mrs. Clark died, and old Tatom had possession, I heard him say he was net sure whether Mr. Clack or some of her family would not come forward and claim the property, and if they did he said he was agreeable to leave. Tee within Martin was then re-called, and in answer to a question put by the court be said there was another Mrs. Clark still living at Norwood, and that she appeared to be between fifty end sixty . years old. Serjeant L)iwling said this was the case for the plaintiff. Sapient Shee asked his lordship whether he considered there was sufficient evidence of the identity of the party to be left to the jury ?—Lord Denman said certainly. Serjeaut Shee then addressed the jury ; and said he bad asked this question of his lordship, because he had not the least doubt that he should be able, by the clearest evidence, to show that the female, who was married in 1794, was be yond all doubt not the person to whom the lease of this pro perty was granted in 1825, and he should satisfy them that the !dn. Clark who died at Norwood in 1843 was, in reality, not more than the age that was represented, and that it was therefore physically impossible that the could have been the person married in 1794. He submitted to the jury that if this person really bad been the plaintiff's wile, he must of necessity have known everything connected with her, and he could have produced clear and unmistakeable evidence of the fact,inetead of leaving it to surmise and doubt, and he at the same time remarked that if the deceased were the per son represented, it was not at ail likely that she should have described herself as a widow. lie did not deny that it was probable there had been some connexion between this person and the plaintiff, but he saidhe had no doubt he should be able to satisfy them by respectable testimony that in * years 1817 and 1818, the plaintiff was living with his fa , mly and a lady, whose age corresponded exactly with a marriage that had taken place in 1794, and who, he should submit, there could be no doubt, was his real wife, and, therefore, he said, the lady who died at Norsood could not have any legal claim to that title. Dr. Laurie, a physician, who was in practice at Norwood in 1841, deposed that he had attended Mrs. Clark, and, at that time, she appeared to be about 50 years old. The witness then detailed the circumstances under which he was called upon to attend the deceased, referring to a particular change in the female constitution ' which, he said, rarely occurr , d to them so late as the age of 50, the general period being 44. , Cross-examined : He judged of her age from the colour of her hair, and other circumstances. lie saw nothing to in duce him to believe that she was more than 50 years old, when he attended upon her.—Dr. Alison, another physician, gave similar testimony. Mrs. Jane Laurence said she knew the deceased from the year 1836 to the time of her death. About two years ago. in rs ference to a particular circumstance that occurred, the deceased told her that she was 43 years old. Susannah Burton said she also knew the deceased, and remembered having a conversation with her about her age about ten or twelve years ago. She represented herself as oae or two rein younger than witness, who is now fifty. seven. She did not appear to be older than she represented herself to be. Mr. Ponsford said that he was acquainted with the plain tiff 26 jn an ago, when he resided in Chatham-place, Black friars. His family consisted of two daughters and a son and a lady whom he introduced as hie wile, and who appeared about 4.5 years of age at that time. Witness never heard of any other Mrs. Clark than this lady. The intimacy conti nued between them for five years, when the plaintiff got into difficulties and broke sip his estanlishment and went to Paris.—Cross-examined Did not know the plaintiff prior to his hying in Chatham-place. He understood that the chil dren then living with him were the issue of a former mar riage, and also that the lady then with him had been mar ried before and also had a son and daughter, and that the name of the former husband was Mayhew. Mr. Croft said he was also acquainted with the plaintiff when he lived in Chatham-place, and was very intimate with him for several years. He ki ew the lady, who was introduced as his wife at that time, and he bad never any suspicion that she was not an. It he had, he should of course not have introduced his own wife and faiiily to her. Mr. Serjt. Dowlinz, this being the defendant's case, then proceeded to address the jury, and, in a most able and convincing reply,liirged that the plaintiff had most com pletely made out bur case. The only question, he said, for the jury now was, as to the identity of the deceased female, and upon this point he thought there was one conclusive fact. The marriage in 1794 was admitted, and if the deceased really was not the person the plaintiff represented her to be, why was not evidence adduced to show whet had become of the person who no doubt was married at that period to the plaintiff? He likewise called the attention of the jury to the signature of Jane Baker to the marriage register, and to that of Jane Clark to the lease in 1825, and he said he was sure , they would perceive an extraordinary similarity between them, and would have very little doubt that they were the signatures of the same person. The Lord ChiefJusttce said, in summing up, that this was certainly a most extraordinary case and full of difficulties which they must overcome as well as they could. He then adverted to the evidence, and said that from the testimony of Mrs. Hudson, who appeared to be a most respectable on, the th e plaintiff's case was completely established for she furore positively that the Mrs. Clark, who died at Norwood, was the wife of the plaintiff ; but on the other hand the medical testimony, which appeared very clear and decisive , rendered it equally impossible that she could have been the same person ; for if she had been married in 1794, she must, according to their statement of her age at the time they attended upon her, have been a young lady of one year old.. (A laugh.) The jury would, however, take all these circum stances into their consideration, nod return a verdict ac cording to their opinion as to which aide the evidence pre ponderated. The jury, after a short deliberation, found for the OXFORD CIRCUIT.—OLou CESTER,MARCIL 30. CROWN oOurr.—Before Mr. Jutice Creswell. ATTOPAYX TO Mcznaa.—Frederick Dodge, 22. was in dicted for having, at Bristol, maliciously cut and wounded Sarah Turner, with intent to murder. The prosecutor was a servant in the family of the ROI% C. Strickland. On the evening of Sunday, the 13th of Feb., the prosecutor and • fellow servant, named Elizabeth Rice, were left in charge of the house while their master was at church. About seven o'clock there was a ring at the door, and on its being opened, two persons inquired for :dr. Strickland, and were told that be was not at home. She asked if any ore was dying, and one said that was it. Thee were asked in, and told to go to the kitchen. She afterwards received a blow, and saw one of the men with his hands uplifted, and believed hearse the man who struck the blow. She screamed murder. Rice came down stairs, and seeing what was going on, cried, " Dear me, what 'hall do!" ran up stairs, and I screamed out of the window. Two persons were outside, and said that two men had run up Park-street. She kept screaming, and a Mr. Lambert, a neighbour, came by, and he found the prosecutrix clinging to the railing and blued running front her head. He ran for Mr. Green, a surgeon, who had attended her ever since. ' She was confined to her bed for six weeks, and the wound was one dangerous to life ; she had not yet fully recovered. The wound was inflicted by a ver y violent blow from a blunt instrument; the scalp at the back of the head had been torn away. A mallet was found in the house. Several witnesses saw two persons, one of whom was believed to be the prisoner, in the neighbourhood at the time ; and a wit ness, named Clarke, swore that about the time in question he saw two persons running along the top of Parkistreet, one of whom was the prisoner. He knew h , m before. The two men kept cn running. Dodge was wiping his right hand with his handkerchief. The other said, "Have you got it all poi" The prisoner was apprehended severs! days after. The • pliceman would not tell him the charge. The priuner, who was near his father's house, jumped down the cellar and called for a batchet.—The prisoner in defence denied that La i was the person ; that Clarke was an acquaintance ; or that he had a dress similar to that which was worn by the person who was seen by the witnesses. His father had put his de fence in the hands of a solicitor, but was not able to pay him, nor could hie friends afford the expense of bringing over witnesses ; otherwise he could have proved where he wag at the time the offence was committed.—The jury found the prisoner Guilty of wounding with intent to murder. —His lordship, in prance' sentence, said, as his crime had fallen short of actual murder, and as in modern times scarcely any offence hut murder was punished with death, he should feel justified in recommending that his life should be spared, but if this recommendation wee adopted there could be no doubt he would be sent out of the country for life.—The prisoner " The Lord will be with me wherever I g o. My innocence will be probably proved some day." MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—WARwicK, Idiom' 31. Tier. QUEEN V. MATTHEW DAVIES.- MORDER. - MT. Wilmore for the prosecution, Mr. Miller and Mr. Macaulay for the prisoner. The prisoner in this cue was indicted for the wilful murder of Mary Davies, his wife. The facts of the case were shortly as follows :—The prisoner and his wife lived at Birmingham, and it appeared that he was in the habit of treating her with great harsher* and cruelty so much so as to have induced her on one occasion to apply to the magistrates for protection. On the 13th October last, in consequence of the prisoner's continued ill-treatment, the deceased was about to apply again to the magistrates, to which he strongly objected, and urged her earnestly not to do so, but she penisted in carrying her inten tion into effect. lie had been peeling some pots tots, and having the knife still in his hand, he repeatedly requested her not to go ; and on her stating her dete rmiaatfon to do so, he went behind her and placing his arm round her as if he were about to kiss her, he passed the knife across bee throat, and she fell dead in an in stant. These facts were clearly proved, and there was no at tempt to contradict them. For the defence, it was contended that the prisoner was not sane at the time of committing the act. Several witnesses were called who deposed to hisheing called " mad Davies," and being subject to fits of great irri tation when taunted and mocked. It also appeared that he had formerly received a wound in t he head.—Mr. Hirt, a surgeon, connected with a lunatic asylum, stated his opinion that such a wound would cause a predisposition to insanity, and stated several symptoms which the prisoner had exhi bited indicative of that disease. He also stated, that with such a predisposition to insanity* that of the prisoner, irrita tion and excitement would produce such frenzy as would render him not master of his actions, and he was of opinion that such jeering and taunting as lee had been subjected to on the subject of his infirmity would he a sufficient cause. Dr. Hanson, of Leamington, who has had much experience in cases of lunacy, and has been connected with the asylum at Hanwell, gave similar testimony. The jury, however, re turned a verdict of Guilty, and sentence of death was passed on the prisoner. WESTERN CIRCUITnniN, Malta 30. neforeJustice Wiehiman. ARSON--J. Pope was charged with having, on the 15th Jan., 1847, feloniously set tire to the dwelling-howl of An thony Kistler, at the parish of Br, age, the said Anthony Kisthr being therein at the time; and W. Bawden was charged with having incited the said James Pope to commit the said felony. Elizabeth Bowden was also charged with hiring harboured Pope. Mr. Moody and Mr. Holdsworth were counsel for the prosecution, and Mr. Slade for the Bawdens. Pope was undefended. The prosecutor, Mr. Anthony Kistler, was the landlord of a public-house called the King's ATMs, which he rented ori ginally from Mr. Bawden, the father of the prisoner,William Bawden ; but on his death the house became the property of 1 the prisoner, with whom there had frequently been quarrels, and the prisoner, William Bawden, had given Mr. Kistler I notice to quit several times, but he always refused to give up possession. On the evening in question preceding the fire, ' the prisoner Pope was seen outside of the house, and a light was observed to fall from beneath his clothes, which he at once extinguished. This man was seen to go towards Wil liam Bawden's house. All the fires in the house had been carefully extinguished, when about two o'clock in the morn ing Mrs. Kistler was awoke by hearing something falling down in the adjoining room. Mr. Kistler immediately went into that room, and called out to his wife, " For Ood's sake take care of the children, for the house is in flames." Mrs. Kistler opened the window Ulm bedroom,and immediately flames rushed in from the adjoining room. Mr. and Mrs. K letter succeeded in escaping with the children, but with only their f night-clothes. Shortly before the fire, the house had been I offered for sale, and the day before the sale, Bawden said to Mr. Kistler, " If you don't ge out of the house, I'll burn you out." And on another occasion be made use of a similar expression to the prosecutor. A witness stated that he heard Bowden, who at that time had a sword in his hand and was thrusting at a door with it, say, that he would run the sword through Mistier as he was running it through the door, that the house should be burnt, that he would rather it should be burnt than Kistler should live in it, and he should have 2001. insurance money. On the evening previous to the fire (which occurred in the morning) Pope was WM in Wm. Bawden's house, dressed in a dirty miner's dress. A person went to Bawden's house, and tried to het in, but the door wail bolted; Bowden's wife came to the window; she was told that her husband's house was on fire, at which sloe laughed. and said she was glad of it. The house was watched, and at eight o'clock the next morning she was seen to leave the house, and did not return until four o'clock in the afternoon : no one went into or came out of the house during Mrs. Bawden's abeence, but it was observed that there was someone remaining in the house when she went out. The constables afterwards went to the house, and asked Mrs. Bawden to open the door. She refused, saying that 1 her husband was at Penzance, and that there was no man there, nothing having been said by the constables that any man was there. The do.v was then forced, and Pope was seen in the house. He said his name was William James. Mrs. Bowden said that he had come in about twenty mutes before, having corns with his clothes a few days before ; he was therefore not taken into custody, but went to Penzance and arranged with a collier to get over to Wells. Whilst he was waiting in a Kiddleywink he heard the landlord say, "I think that man so the man that has burnt the house down, and I think I'll go over and give information and get the reward." He ins mediately escaped out of the window and got over to Wells. t "Wm= ~,,,;;; ..:.. 7 .-r.t, by the mute of Kitchen, but he told • witness that there ‘ 7 4.!. a ros., f t! ( - ., :.zuraft who owed him money, and it was in his power to on for it, truths rt ..._ would not do it the first time ;he woad him again, ind requested the witness to direct a letter for him to William Burden . CambomeiChurch Town (the prisoner's address). He afterwards told the same witness that Bawden had promised to give him 211. for setting fire to a house, and that he was, therefore, obliged to keep out of the way ; that Mr. Bawden had insured a house for 2001. • th at head got • a tenant who would not go out of it. He aso confessed that his real name was James Pope, and requested the witness to write to Bawden for some money and his clothes. He was afterwards apprehended, and, whilst in Bodmiu gaol, he asked a prisoner to write a letter for him, and confessed that he had set fire to the house, for which he was com mitted ; that at first he did not do it, but went back and told Mrs. Bawden that he could not set tire to the house because there was a card party in the house, to which she replied, " You must do it, for they are all drunk, and Kistler loves grog ;" and, when the witness asked him if he was not afraid of lburning Kistler and his family, Pope replied, " Oh, what matters ; he's a foreigner, and ought to be burnt." To show that Bawden was aware of the fire and that ha had counselled and abetted, &witness was called who proved that Bawden was at his house, at Penzance, on the day and the morning of which the fire had taken place, when some one came in end asked if they bad heard of the tire, and informed them that Bawden s house was burnt down ; the witness asked Bawden if he had not better go home to see about it ? he said, " Oh, no, what do I care about it ?" and shortly afterwards, when the van came, Bawden inquired it his wife had arrived? the witness told him that, of course, his wife could not come as she would wait to see about the ' fire ; the prisoner said she would be sure to come, as she had promoted to do so, and to bring the policy paper with ker. This was the case for the prosecution. Mr. Slade called two witnesses ; one said that be was car rying a lighted rope past Kistler's house on the evening in question, sod another, who stated that he had been employed to put out a fire in a chimney in Mr. Kistler's house some time before the fire. Mr. Moody replied. The learned judge summed up, and the jury found all the prisoners Guilty. They were then sentenced as follows : Pepe and Bawden, sentence of death was recorded; and Mrs. Bawden, for harbouring and concealing Pope, was sentenced to imprisonment for two years. MARCH 31.

NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Ltvanroor, APRIL 1. Clown Corm.—Berore Mr. Baron Alderson . HIGHWAY ROBBERY IN °LIMN BTTLE.—Daniel O'Brien, 27, and Michael Connolly, 26, two respectably dressed youi,g men, were indicted fel. having, at Prestwich, feloniously assaulted Nicholas German, and stolen from his person a watch, a crown piece, and five shillings. The pro secutor in this CAN was the Rev. Mr. German, the high master of the grammar school, Manchester, and on Satur day, the 15th of January ith last, at one o'clock i hter,n the after-1 noon, he was,in company w his lady and daug taking &carriage ride in Great Heaton, near to tbe seat of the Earl Olt Wilton. On arriving at a place called Sheepfoot-lanc, the reverend gentleman and the two ladies left the carriage, which was sent onward in care of • son of Mr. German, who formed one of the party, and the ladies and Mr. German proceeded to walk up the lane, and before they had gone tar they met two men, who passed them, but who, after going a short distance, faced about and presented each a pistol. Mr. German swore pos itivel y to these men bein the prisoners at the bar. They demanded to have money and the ladies' macho+. Mrs. German said in reply, "You shall not have m watch," and ran away. O'B rien y_ presented a pistol at Mr. German, and Connolly at; the young lady, who remained with her father. O'Brien said to Mr German, " I will shoot you on the spot if you do not give me your watch and money ;" to which Mr. German said, " For God's sake keep off these deadly instruments, and I will give you try weicli and .everythinkt," are. proceeded to give up hie w atch, which O'Brien timere. ceived in his left hand, holding the p er at the in his right, directed at Mr. German. ;dr. German also gave him a crown piece of the reign of 11l rmner and several shillings. During t his time the P Connolly was presenting a pistol at Miss German, and demanding her watch, to which she replied , " 1 fis:re no watch, either here or at home , b ut if y ou will wets an instant I will go and fetch mamma's." At this time O'Brien, who was standing over Mr. German, raised the hand in which he held the pistol, and Miss German, fearing that he was anion to shoot her father, sprang forward from Connolly, and placed her hand upon O'Brien's arm, implored of him to spare her papa's life, and offered to give up her fur tippet, but 'his was refused. Connolly thensaid to them, "If you are not off instantly 1 will shot you." Mr. German and his daughter then went forwards, and the two prisoners, after going a few yards, jumped over a hedge, and ran in the direction of ROM` cottages, Mr. German calling after them " murder, robbers ! " which cries being heard by a daughter of oiie of the oottsgers, she gave the alarm to her mother, who came out of the cottage, and on looking over the gate into the field ehe saw O'Brien, who appeared to be much exhausted, u if he lad been running. She asked him what was the wetter, and he said nothing, and after joining another man from the other side of the hedge he went forward. One of the county constabulary force, Wie n was on duty near to where the transaction took place, shor e 1y before the occurrence met two men, one of whom wax the' prisoner O'Brien, and who asked him the way to Middleton. Me directed theta, and they proceeded in the direction of the °lace where the robbery took place, and the distance was Bull that they would arrive there about the time the outrage sOs com mitted. On the Bth of February, in consequence of infor mation given to the police, Inspector Leary and two of his onicers went to the beerhouse in Blake street, Manchester, kept by a person named Robinson, where they found the prisoners together in the skittle-ground. They apprehended them, and conveyed them to the police-station. The charge against them was stated, and, after being cautioned in the , usual way, O'Brien said, " I am innocent ; I was drinking the whole of that afternoon at James Robinson's." Connolis was protein at this time, and said, " I was out hawking combs that day, and sold one to the wife of Dr. Windsor, of Piccadilly," The prisoners were placed, along with others, in a room at the police-station, and Mr. German recognised them as being the men who had committed the robbery, and subsequently they were in the same way recognised by Miu German. In cross-examination of Mrs. German, and the woman who had seen the man said t libel O'Brien, near to the cottage, Mrs. German deposed posy that one of the men who had committed the robbery had round his neck a woollen comforter, and the other woman positively stated that it was a yellow handkerchief.—Mr. Atkinson eadressed the jury for the prisoners.—Mr. Monck replied, and the learned Judge having recapitulated the evidence, ins'ructed the jury that the on'y question for them was, the identity of the prisoners.—The jury retired from court, ard, after an absence of five minutes, returned with a verdict of Guilty. Sentence deferred. POLICE.—SATURDAY. M ANSION. HOUSB.—Cn AllOn OP SWINDLING.--J. Piper, Mary Ann Piper,; and Jane Webb, alias Jonas, were charged with a series of frauds on various tradesmen. ' The mice-room was crowded with the prisonere'numerous riot ims. The prisoners were apprehended at 14, Caledonian-road, Bat tle-bridge. Between the 22d of February and the 27th March they had contrived to obtain three yen loads of goods. Amongst the sufferers whose cases were gone into were Mr. Lewis, ironmonger, Bishopsgate-street Within ;, Price, stsymaker ; Williard, pork butcher, and Barnes, batter. It was the practice of the male prisoner Piper to represent himself as an architect, and the female prisoner as his wife or housekeeper, as the case required, and the younger female Webb as the housemaid or niece. He was wretchedly attired at the bar, in order that his dupes might not recognise him, though among the property seised was found a variety of fashionable clothing. There were numerous other charges against the prisoners, which the officer could establish in a few days. The prisoners were remanded for a week. BOW-STREET.—THI LAW or BILL-4TICLIN6.—G. Haverall, a bill-sticker, was summoned for having illegally affixed bills to a hoarding in Long-acre, in the occupation of Mr. Manby, who has (as treasurer of the Adelphi and Haymarket theatres) pur chased a permission to post hills relative to those theatres on the various hoardings in and around London to the exclusion of other persons. The defendant and others in the employ of Mr. Scott, the bill-sticker, were thus to the number of MO men thrown out of employ ; but they never theless on several occasions went to the hoarding in question, and posted a quantity of bills over those of Mr. Manby, but these were generally torn down immediately by Manhy's men. Mr. Wontner, for the defence, contended, as was ad mitted by the complainant's witnesses, that the hoarding had not been erected by the complainant, but by a Mr. Haand, to whom the licensee for erecting it had been granted by the surveyor of pavements to the parish, and who bad let it to Mr. Manby, to the exclusion of all otberbill-atickere. This Mr. Wontner said, was an illegal agreement, Mr. Holland having no right to transfer his license to another person, which he bad clearly done by giving such an agreement —Mr. Henry thought Mr. Wontner's argument was tenable, lithe pro . prietor of the hoarding had obtained the summons, he could have inflicted a penalty on the defendant, but at present it had not been proved that Mr. Holland forbidden i of his mistimes to stick bills. 1! r:s. Holland chose to Scott ply i for 4 ""MOni 004 Id d, so; the present case must be a. missed. I MARLBOROUGH-STREET.- - IV.

He said he had made a mistake, end ran out of the room, locking the door after him, so that she could not get out to give an alarm. Witness threw up the window and called for assistance, and in a short time her master came up, and she related to him what had occurred. —Mr. B. Caunt said he was in his parlour on Thursday night, when he heard the last wiener's' call. As he went up stairs a man resembling the prisoner passed him. Witness opened the door of the servant's room, and having received a description of the thief, he want down into the parlour and told the company he thought a thief was in the room. The prisoner was going towards the door when witness seized him and taxed him with being the man. The servant came in and immediately identified him. Witness knew the man to be a very bad character; he had frequently forbidden him hie house; but not taking the hint, he had been compeiled to kick him out. Some Lucifer matches and house-breaking implements were found on his person.—The prisoner was remanded. CRAEMISTS AND IRISH REPHALERIL—A gentleman applied to Mr. Hardwick to know if the following matter came within his jurisdiction as a magistrate. He waepassing along Silver-street, when he noticed in the window of a publican a bill aznouncing that a meeting would be held at his house on Sunday evening next to dis cuss the expediency of the chartists joining the Irish to ob tain a repeal of the union. Now he thought Sunday a very improper day to be devoted to such discussions, and he con ceived lt might be proper to draw the attendon of the ma gistrates to what was in contemplation.—Mr. Hardwick could do no more than advise the applicant, if he thought the matter worth following up, to lay his statement before the police commissioners. SPICIAL CONSTABLE/I.—The magistrates here and at the other courts have been occupied in swearing in special con stables during the week. The contemplated chartist meet ing has again aroused the vigilance of geatlemen and trades men, and they have come forward noun in considerable Rumbas to enrol themselves. Sir W. Arlington, Bart., was sworn in. OBTAINING MONET UNDER FALSE FRITH:4(7S.—C. Parkinson was charged with having obtained fie. from W. Windle.—The complainant mid he went to the Horse Guards on Wednesday last, and while waiting to see the Duke of Wellington come out the prisoner accosted him, and entered into conversation about his grace, representing himself as having just come to town, and of course very desirous to see everything worth seeing. He said he was the captain of •vessel, and had the misfortune, when coming out of Havre, of being cut down to the water's edge by a vessel that ran foal of him. The ennui at Havre gave him 31., with which be had reached London. He had • wife and family in Liverpool, but was unable to join thenkas he was 6s. 7d. short of the fare by railway. Witness gave him Ss. A few days aftsrwarde he saw the prisoner on one of the benches in the Regent's Park, looking at him through his fingers. Witness went up to him, and was immediately re , cognised by the prisoner, who inquired if be had not re . coved the 85. which he had berrooed, and which he bad sent back in a pocket-book mounted with silver. Witness gave him intocustody.—The prisoner pleaded great distress, but refused to give any accouxt of himself.—lie was re manded. MARYLEBONE.—THE CHARGE AGAINST THE EARL OP KINOSTON.—Lord Kingston, who wu on Friday charged with assaulting G. Cull, appeared to put in bail.—Mr. J Him (who acted as his lordahip's solicitor) offered Mr. Wm. Holmes (late and lea 34 years • member of the Howe of Commons), of No. 10, Grafton-street, Bond.street, and Mr. Philp Davis Cooke, of 35, Alpha-road, St. John's-wood, ard et Houston, near Doncaster, Yorkshire, who were accepted as bail in the sum .1 2,600/. each, Lord Kings.on to enter into kn own recognisance in 5,0001. to stand his trial at the next esuing "awns at the Old Bailey.

Whilst waiting they observed the prisoner Thompson and Epsom lying to off • vessel near Deptford. They boarded the boat, but the fellows made a desperate re sistance, and to secure them it was necessary to hail tame hands from the vessel. This being done they proceeded to wards the steamer from which the sheathing hod been stolen, and saw Mahoney and Donovan, who had, doubtless, been disturbed before commencing their work, rowing away. They were overtaken, and with no little difficulty secured, when all the implements necessary for stripping off the sheathing were found in their boat. --Except in the case of Epsom evidence war given of several previous oinvictio six s agivast the other prisoners.—Epsom was sentenced to weeks' imprisonment, and the other prisoners to three -sits' each. MONEY MARKET. SATURDAY EVENING. Reports of commercial and financial disasters abroad, not unaccompanied with vague allusions w less im portant casualties nearer home, weighed upon the funds, and contributed slightly to depress them. The a ttendance of dealers and brokers to -da y was, however, but slender, the fineness of the weather having se duced them to congenial r. pose from their labours elsewhere, in country or on the enlist. The transac t;ons in stock were consequently not of much consi ii derat.: 4l . Consols ranged, almost without variation, ti from 811 io until nearly the close of business, when r they became a fraction lower, and left off at 811 to 1 • for money and account. After business hours they L were done at a reduction of 1 upon those quotations. Exchequer Bills, 335. to 335. premium. India Bonds, 3 17s. to 20s. pm. Bank Stock, 1904 to 21.

Besides the failures reported front Paris in the t Daily Noes this morning, advices from Cologne 3 notice the suspension in that city of Abraham Schaaf hausen, the banker, whilst from Geneva the banking house of Lombard Geier and C. is announced in like I manner. The failure of the old and great house of f a Schaafhausen will, it is to be feared, tend to aggravate e most materially the ill condition of credit abroad, already so greatly disturbed. Such a disaster in f Southern Germany can be compared only for magni tude, and in its probable effects, with what might be supposed to follow here from the embarrasaments of a Lint-rate capitalist and banking-hoase, with the most extensive foreign relations. The Geneva banking firm of Lombard Odier and Co. was of high repute, and intitnat...ly connected witZ' Paris houses of the first order. the present quarter, The state of the revenue fur which must be made up and pub . Med 'within a few days, and its prospects for the rematner of the year, have been latterly attracting the mot - e attention, be cause of the avowal a short time pincer t the finance minister that the receipts this quarter to the then date had fallen short of those of the corresponding period of last year by nearly half a t uillion sterling. Apprehensions have been expressed ,. assertions even hazarded, in quarters ratht r disPmed to take the gloomy view of the sui t ,k,"topping that the receipts of the Treasury have been r short weekly at the rate of 200,000/., as comp.' mu with those of 1847. Such a retrograde movemei 'to supposing the plausibility of the statement, and tht probability of its holding on, would represent a de ficit at the end of the year of ten millions sterling. It is, of course, not possible to entertaia so wide stretched a supposition •, but still the prospect of a considerable deficit on the quarter, which may almost be assumed on official authority, has been unplea santly commented ou. It is erroneously believed in some quarters that the Bank's weekly returns, under the head of "Public Deposits," should com paratively give the measure of the accruing deficiency. But such is not always the case, nor in any case could it be relied upon as an infallible criterion, or as more than an approximate indication. In the present instance such a test would be entirely fallacious, for, as is here shown, the amount of the " public deposits" now in the Bank, or there on the 25th ultimo, the date of the last returns, was considerably in excess of what was held in the corresponding quarter of last year. Starch 21. 145.—Public deposits. i 7,452 SSG March 27,1517. Id. Increase ISO It is not to be assumed, however, that the increase thus noted has grown out of the greater mass of fiscal payment s - into Bank this year than last, for, from the admission already referred to of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the contrary may be taken for granted. The increase, therefore, can, it would seem, only be accoun ted for b y the balance still in hand and unexpended of the Irish ban of last year; and not the increase apparent alone, but a con siderable sum beyond, probably not less than to the extent of some three-quarters of a million more. For the unexpended balance of that loan is probably not less than one million and a half. It was stated some time since in the House of Commons, either by the Premier or the Chancellor of the Exchequer, at 1,800,0001. Deducting this estimated remnant of the loan from the public deposits on the 25th ultimo, as before given, there would result, in round numbers, the sum of 5,933,000/. as really or approximately representing the product and payment iato Bank of revenue derived from ordinary fiscal sources.
