When first whams' knew her alto was a pcnoti of lady-iike mums', and appearance. She then appeanal to behave as erediugly well towards her daughters and husband. .Ihout the time Mrs. Ince was married, Mrs. Cumming said she hail been the hest of daughters, and would be a great law nr h.r, but she hoped it would be for her am good. Attar the marriage ot Mrs. Hooper, there was mu ....traug. meet between her and her mother. Mrs. Ince WI estobited great regret and sorrow at the estrangement which had taken place between them. Had intiotantay known Mrs. Ince 16 or 17 years, and had never known IMP behave unkindly to her mother. Had never known mr. Ince guilty of an unkindness to Mrs. Cumming. Crow-euniirted by Mr. James—Was :swore that UM and Hoop, r had taken out u commission of lunacy spirt Mrs. Cumming. Wus not aware that they had commenced • chancery suit against her, or charged her with perjury. H. Hinz, Hid& • solicitor, was applied to by Mrs. Cum ming to us uesge hi r affairs. 1 Mr. Hawkins had been her soli citor previously. but she intimated that there was a want of confidence in her towards him. Witness recommended to h. r Messrs. Birch and Davies, of Newport, to snaring; her Monmouth property. l'rupositions were frequently made to her in reference to the letting of Stow-hill 11.11 M, situated on her property. The louse was in a wretched condition, and she appeared to have some objection to even proposition that was made to her. Witness thought that if she had not made such objections there would have been so ditti.sulty in letting it. She afterwards because dissatis fied with the agent, and wished another to be appointed. At her desire witirss's brother went down to Newport and made a survey of the estate. Mrs. Cumming did nrt attend to the reemurnendetions of his report. MM. CW31111411( always expreered berstlf in terms of great gratitude for what witness had done fur her. In 1844 she wished to take • furnished house at Bayswater. Witness tried to dissuade tier, inasmuch as her affairs were somewhat in volved, and she already had • house. She appeared to ae quiesee in that, but she afterwards took the house. Ilad seen nothing of ber since October 1844. In December 1811, witness received a letter from her, in consequent., of which he called upon her. She refused to see witness. }lad paid over to her or on her account all the money wit ness had r,ecived, and had a claim against her fur costs. Ilad certainly never robbed her of 3001., or of any plate. Found that she always objected to everybody she employed. She always spoke slightingly of her daughters and their husbands, and particularly wished that her address should not be given them . She seemed to consider Mr. Hooper was inferior to her daughter, but she made ne intelligible charge against Mr and Mrs. Ince. In 1814, witness com promised an action for her with Mr. Williams fur misusing the furniture in a house she had occupied in Maida-vale. It was • nicely furnished house-, at a rent of 2001. a year. It was alleged that she hail had the washing done in the drawing-room, and the iro ni ng on the 100 table • and that the pigeons had dirtied the furniture. She denied the truth of these allegations, but afterwards consented to conipri ai.e the action for 121. 2s. A much larger. claim hod been nude. She said she would not sleep on the bed in that house because the landlord had weighed the feathers, but she would sleep in her own bed. Witness was the solicitor to the commis sion of 1810. Captoin Cumming was alive when the pro. eeedintes in lunacy were commenced. They were taken with his concurrence. The commission was not actually . Weed natil after his death, but the order fur her confine- Mint in York-house was signed by the captain. After the esmatission hill sat some days, an arrangement was some to by the counsel on both sides. Supposing that giant bad Is en earned nut, her property would bay been protected. On that occ.isiost Mr. James was in aappart of the petition, and Mr. Petersdorff against it. (lierighter.) Cross-eaanaincd by Mr. James—Mrs. Cumming was rather litigious, and was a good client to some persons, but not to witness. (Laughter.) Did not know that he ever delivered her a writti n account except on one occasion. Her rental was about 400/. per annum. 11ud given her verbal accounts from time to time. She now owed witness from 60/. to 1001. Knew explain Cumming slightly. Had heard that he took tow benefit of the act, but slid not know anything of it from his own knowledge. Did not know that Stow. hill lieuse RSA *chi dialed in the set for the town improve. meat to come down. Did not know whether it was usual in furaished boasts to weigh the feathers in order to guard against fraud. Thought what Mrs. Contusing did was a simple piece of absurdity. Would not go so far as to say it was u delusion. Messrs. Ince and Hooper applied to witness about the commission early in 1840, while Man. Cumming was eontlnill in York-house Asylum. Waste went with Ince and Hooper and searched the house, witness had no recollection of taking any property away. Captain Cumming had died b.-fore then, but he was mg then lyine dead in the house. Did not know whether Inca or Hooper took any of the property away. Had Oleg done so witness would nut hove seen any impropriety in IL When witness dent knew Hooper he was a clerk in the as. age or customs. Re-examined by Sir F. Thtsiger —Ransacking the house was nut by env means a proper term for the search that was made. Nothing was dune but what wee necessary for the security of the property. By the Cosonsission.m—Did not recollect seeing any deeds or trinkets. From the state the house wsa in, should not have felt justified in leaving anything saleable about. During the time witness was acting fur Mr.. Cumming he would not have prepared a will for her ifabe had requested him, unless she had been previously seen by a medical man. Winifred Todd had been in Mrs.Cusinsing's service a. cook. She them lived at Gothic Queen's-road, St. John's wood, where she still resided. Mr,. Coasting used to borrow money of witness. The grestest suss wise 30.. She used to complain that she was rubbed. The house was in • very destitute state, but Mr. Haynes told witnem, when she mentioned it to him, that wheu Mrs. Cumming come ato it, it was completely furnished. Mn. Cumming was in the habit of giving order* and countermanding them. Had known her go a whole day without giving any orders what ever, or taking anything except • little brandy or wine and water. On one occasion she ord, red dinner at G o'clock in the evening, but did not come home till 1 in the morning, and then she ordered it up. Witness and her niece (who also lis - ed in Mrs. ('unsmintea house) used to get their din ners when they could. 'I hey frequently had to wait until 9or 10 o'clock at night. Witness used to sit up with her until she went to bed, which was sometimes not till 6 or 7 in the morning. She generally used to talk about Mr. Harries and her money. That seemed to press heavily upon her mind. She used to !art at and use bad language respecting him daily. She was • person of filthy habits. She used to behave very civilly to witness, except when they quarrelled. (sti laugh.) Their dinners were gene rally cook, d in her bedroom.

She mice told witness that she was aimed with • fit, and that whilst in that state Mrs. flays/e at tempted to take the ring, off her lingers ; but she said, For God's ease, don't rub me before lam dead." Each cat had a separate plate set for it, and meat and soup at the same time. Napkins were also placed for them. When they had milk they had it cut of china cups. She was at tended by Dr. Caldwell, who used to see her every Wed needay. She did not take one bottle in twenty of the me dicine be sent her. 'the doctor did ant know that she did not take his medicines. Witness, at her request, once meld thirty-tier bottle. and gave her the money. She bad taken none of the medicine in them. Mr. Haynes did not often call ; but Mr. Jones, a friend,: hie, was these night mil day. Una Sunday witness asked her what they were to hate fur the kitchen dinner,. Mrs. Cumming replied that they might have akg of mutton there wan in the house. She then Sint for it and told witness to cut it in three. Witness, not exactly understanding her, she took the knife front her, threw it violently down, and began to curse and swear ; then said that she had no dinner her self, and her servants might also go without. She once said that a servant named Clarke had attempted to poison her. Witness left because her health was bemoaning to WI. She was sometime. requireel to stand as much as eight hours to gether by her mistress's bedside. Crees.exaniined by S,.risont Wilkins—Mrs. Cumming row at different times of the day.

The house WAS once broken lido, and the kitchen nenrly stripped. A letter from Dr. Caldwell was here read by the commis sioner, sit Mug that Mrs. Cumming had tarn too much ex hausted by her attendance yesterday to be able to be present to-stly. Mary ltainey hail lived upwards of two months in the service of Mrs. Cumming, and deposed to various eccen tricities. On the Ist of February last, alter a visit from Mrs. Hutchinson, Mrs. Cumming sail to witness, "Good (lad' what hove I done nave? 1 hat pumpkin, Mrs. Ilut , ehinson, has been here, and persuaded me to send her son down to Wales to collect my rents " Witness went slows stairs. and her mistress locked sad bolted her door.

She had then five eats, and would have hail six, but she maid that Mr. Jones hail strangled one of the kittens. The room was so filthy soil hail so affected witness's health that she should feel it to the day of her death. The eats had a medical attendant named " Dr. Williams." (Loud laughter). Dr. Caldwell used to tell witness to lease the door open, and once he asked Mrs. Cumming to allow the window obeli) be open. She used very violent language, and said that lie waisted to kill her like the rest oh them. Nothing offended her so soon as interfering with her cats.

The wdoess then ease evidence WI to Mrs. CY111111illbr'• habits, very • tar in s feet to that of the last witness,. Mrs. Cmnming used to have two bottles of medicine every week, and they were a:I placed untouched tin the mantel-piece for Dr. Ca;da ea to see. Mrs. Cumming used to my that Mrs. Hutch:mon came to hear all she could, and convey it to Mr. Hobert Haynes, and witness thought so too. (A laugh.) When Mrs. Cumming spoke of a will, Mrs. 11. said tier husbausl would snake uue for her, sa he bad done fur another person. quite as well es • solicitor, and would save her six or seven pounds. Mrs. Cummin s ; told witness that Mr. Robert Haynes had made a will, which he wanted to persuade her was hers, but it was not so. She said that Mr. Hobert Haynes had willed over ell her property to himself and other ;writ's'. of whom she knew nothing. She stated that Mr. Robert Haynes hod sent her two dozen and a half of wine, hut that it was like bog water, and that at contained poison, au she sent it back. She was of opinion that all her servants Were con nected with Mr. Robert Haynes, and that he was robbing her. She would nut allow her food to be cooked down stairs for fear of poison.

Mrs. Cumming did not charge her with ill-using her on the Ist Febtusry in the cuachumen's presence. if the coachinal said so he ought to be executed. (Laughter.) Did tell het that she (witness) could easily secure her. .r h 4 t was attei the police had left. Mrs. Cumming wanted to go out of the room and witness told her that if she did not keep quiet she would soon settle her. Witness did not know who ..

Iliad lived with a gentleman who was ists.oe, and knew that Mrs. Cuminiug was mad when she had lived with her s week. Juhn Richards, a policeman, confirmed a portion of the last witnevi's sta.:aunt. The proceedings were then ailjourneil until ten this THE ROBBERIES ON THE YORK AND NORTH MIDLAND RAILWAY. At the Hull sessions this week, Thomas Hall, a publican of Hull, has been tried on the charge of feloniously receiving property stolen from the premises of the above company, under circumstances recorded in our columns at the time of his elimination before the magistrates. Tho only case upon which evidence was taken was a charge of recessing, knowing it to have been stolen, a quatiOty of damask, forwarded, by the manufacturers, Messrs. John lioldsworth and Company, of Halifax, to Hull, ea raule to Arbroath, North Briton. A truss of damask had been lost during its transit upon the line; the York and North Midland Company had been called upon to indemnify the owners; about two months since a search was made in the prisoner's house, and some of the damask was found made up into bed-curtains. Additional evidence to that taken before the magistrates was adduced in the persons of William Lungbottom, a plate layer, and Itobert Ilurten, an engine driver, formerly in the service of the company, but now undergoing imprisonment fur rob beries of goods conveyed upon the line. These men deposed that they abstracted the damask from the luggage.van, to gether with other property, at a Mat about seventeen' miles from (lull, and forwarded it by packet to the prisoner Hall, receiving some money in return, which was divided amongst them. The cue was a very long one, hut the pri soner was finally found guilty, and was sentenced to t i n years' transportat ion, the learned Recorder observing that the evidence lett no doubt but that his (Hall's) house had been for years past the receptacle of stolen property belonging to the York cud North klidlandCompany. There were uo less than 8 additional emerges against the prisoner, an immense Mail of property of various descriptions having Leen found upon hie premises. Another ease involved four prisoners, named John Capes, Elisabeth Capes, Mary Eyelid( n, and John Atkinson, who went charged, the two former with • stealing, and the two latter with receiving, a chest of tea, value I:if., the property of the came company. The robbery in this case took place on the nth of October last, and the chief agent was the prisoner John Capes, who was master of a vessel called the Harriett Jane, belonging to a Mr. I Wilburn, who was employed by the York and North Mid land Railway Company to carry goods for them. All the prisoners,with theezeeption of Atkinson, were found guilty. John Capes was sentenced to ten years' transportation, Elisabeth Capes to three months' Imprisonment, and Mary Erenden to twelve months imprisonment, with bard labour. Charges of a similar nature to those just disposed of are now pending against other persons, and it is understood that ]fall has made a confession, in volving as receivers of the stub n property individuals who have hitherto been considered highly respectable. At the police court on Tuesday a counter charge of perjury was preferred against one of the witnesses, W. Kendall, who was formerly iu the Down pools Department of the line, and on whose evidence depended the chief points of the charge :prefernal against Marshall and daverach, two other servants of the company, who had been committed fur trial st the present Sesaio6l, but the indictment against whom for the present had been withdrawn. The evidence was very contradictory. On the one side, it was peeved that Kendall had, after giving evidence against Marshall and Sarcrach, confessed to a police cuu.table that what be had said on that particular charge was quits false; and on the other hand, Mr. Muss, solicitor to the railway cons ' pony, who defended the prisoner, stated that this alleged " confession" was itself untrue, and bad been elicited from I Kendall by undue induences which had been exerted Over him. The charge occupied the attention of the I magistrates fur live hours, and the prisoner was finally dismissed. TIIP. FORGERIES ON THE YORKSHIRE BANKING CultPAKT.—Yesterday (Thursday) the three prisoners, James Ellis, Edward Marshall, and John Green, in custody un the charge of utterring forged 61. note., purporting to have been imued by the Doncaster branch of the above bank, were again bronght up at Leeds Court-house for final examination. Some further evidence of uttering wee given, which added nothing - Material to the ease. In reply to the usual qui-,tion, the prisoners Ellis and Marshal: said they had nothing to say at present, and Green said ho was inno. cent of the charges preferred-weird him.

There is still a strung feeling of uneasiness hang ing over the stock market, owing to the uncertain position of the Cabinet, and though the tendency of the money market, in conjunction with the payment of the dividends now in progress, is so decidedly in favour of prices, any upward movement receives a speedy check. At the commencement of business this morning a decided decline was noticed on yesterday's improved rate, Consols being first called only 97 to '!. With the appearance of the government broker, however, who invested in this stock at 971, a stimulus was given, and prices, after again receding, are now sup ported at yesterday's clueing range of 97Z to 1, both fur cash and the 16th.

Annuities of thirty years, 1860, N. Bank Stock, 216!. Exchequer Bills arc steady at their advanced price of 68s. to 61s. prem., with'more business offering. In India Bonds nothing is doing. In the foreign stock market much buoyancy pre vails, and there is a general tendency to higher prices. Occasion has been given by the arrival of the Thames, which is stated to bring 81,000 dole. on dividend account, and fuller advises from Mexico, to a decided line of operations for a rise in the bonds of this state, conducted by parties who are usually enabled to forestall all others in their means of information, and the price has gone up no less than 1 t per cent. 'Sardinian Bonds have also risen 1, and Venezuela per Cent. Equador Bonds are like wise looking up, and the late improvement in Spa nish is pretty well maintained.

A deputation from the new committee of Spanish bondholders, and including Sir John Fitzgerald, Mr. Oliveira, and Mr. Tindal Atkinson, hail an inter view with Lord Granville, at the Foreign-otfice,yester day. They urged least strongly that the majority of the English bondholders hurl out assented to the terms, only one-tenth having as yet converted; and that the Spanish people are opposed to confiscation, while their interests lie in the maintenance of the public credit, for the purpose of obtaining capital for agricultural and other internal improvements. The fuller accounts of the lose of the Amazon, with the frightful sacrifice of life attendant upon the catastrophe, were perused with painful interest in the City, and much gratification was expressed when it became known, late in the day, that a number of the missing crew and passengers had been landed at Brest. Tho Royal Mail Steam Packet Cora -1 pany, with commendable promptitude, have issued a notice that the Avon will be despatched from South ampton, as an extra packet, for the West Indies and Chagres, on Sunday morning next.

It has been stated that the Paris and Strasbourg Railway Company will require the sum of 400,000 i. over and above the share capital of 6,000,0(10/. ster ling, to ensure the completion of the line, and the conclusion has been somewhat hastily arrived at that the estimate of construction has been proved wrong. The traffic returns for the last week on the under mentioned English lines of railway, as made up to this day, are as follows: 18.12. 1861.

The number of miles open was in 18.52 3,804 j, and in 1861 3,7261, being an increase of 1131 miles, or 3 per cent. The aggre gate average return per mile per week was in 1852 441. 14s. 141., and in 1831 43!. Si.. 4d., so that the difference remains in favour of the present year to the extent of I/. Go. 4d. per mile. These returns must consequently be regarded as showing a steadyl improvement. The decrease on the London and North Western is chiefly attributable to the Great Exhibition, which even at that early period was exercising an influence on this line, the carriage of materials for the building forming an important item in the account.
