TEE EXPRESS, TIMSDAY EVENING, JULY 23, 1863. was in pecuniary difficulties. I have not acted with Wil liam Bennett is procuring money to retrieve Watts from bie difficulties. I know that my brother raised money for William Reopen, but 1 know uothieg about the, money being raised to pay off judgments gamut Watts. I know that money bee been raised. I I have Myself prepared mortgage deeds for the purpose of raising money for William houpali. 1 caunotetate what amount of mosey was actually raised, and I cannot my how much money William R ou poil owed our firm in January, 1856. The leases relating to these farms were prepared, I believe, in our office, but I had ',Abler; to do with them. I remember there were some negotiation. with Mr. Longman for a loan upon the Great Warty property, but lam unable to say bow those nego tiations went off. Ily brother acted In these matters, and I know very little about them. - • _ Re-examined—My brother was subpcenead u e witness for the plaintiffs, but he was merely celled upon to produce certain dude. Mr. Beck, a witness who bad been examined, having prepared, at the request of the court, the binocular micro scope with which he had examined the alleged forged deed of gift is an adjoining room, the jury retired for the purpose of themselves looking at the document through the same Matron:mot. This dated the use for the defendants. Mr. Bovill then proceeded to sum up to the jury the cue which he believed he had established on behalf of his clients. He said be wee glad that be could congratulate them upon the approaching termination of this protracted inquiry, and be hoped that et the result he should also be able to con. granulate his clients upon the decision that they would arrive at. When he last addressed them the only evidence that was before them was that of the anaemia for the plaintiff, one of whom undoubtedly (Mr. Berridge) made the important admission that in his opinion the signature to the deed of gift was the genuine signature of the deceased, and he said it appeared to him that the evidence he bad laid before them on behalf of the defendants had completely answered the cam for the plaintiff, particularly upon the important questions of handwriting, sod whether the signature to this deed of gift was a genuine signature or not. His learned friend Ser eant Shoe had stated in a tone of triumph that be should prove that the genuine signature of Mr. Richard Palmer Roupell was never written without some peculiar charac teristics, one of which was the flourish at the end of the name, but by an almost special interposition it actually turned out that in one of the deeds produced by the plaintiff the very thing occurred in that signature which his learned friend so much relied upon as having never exhibited itself in the " flourish," as it was termed, to the name ; sad Dot only this, but Mr. Richard &email, who, according to the ammo of his keened friend, was so very careful ia writing his sigoature, had actually spelt his name with one " I." (The learned counsel handed the document to which he referred to the jury, in order that they might inspect it.) He called their attention to this fact as an answer to the suggestion on the part of his learned friend, but it appeared to him that the fact that was so much relied upon in support of the plaintiff's case was really of very little, if any, import ance, end that the bundles of receipts that had beim Fo dived made out in the clearest possible manner that Mr. Richard Roupell had no uniform mod* of signing his LAIN and that he segued it in ell sone of ways. The learned counsel then proceeded at considerable length to comment' upon the peculiarities in the different signatures that had been produced, and he contended that with regard to this portion of the coves the plaintiff had entirely failed. After some further observations, he said that it appeared to him that the facts to which be bad directed the attention of the jury were a complete answer to the eel. deuce that had been given by the experts, and especially to that of the gentleman who had bothered his father—(a laugh)—and who might probably have succeeded in bother ing them if they had not, fortunately, been able to obtain panorama of the mans of receipts that had been put in, and which showed conclusively that the points upon which he professed to rely were not of the slightest value in the world as affecting the present question. The learned counsel Dort called their attention to the evidence that had beau given by the clerks from the Bank of Ragland and the Loudon Joint Block Bank—men who, he said, were not baekaeyed experts, but men who were in the habit of paying Ingestions of money upon their knowledge of handwriting, and who by their great experience were able to detect ta i forgery in an instant, and he urged that it was inspomible not to give the greatest possible effect to evidence of such a character. He next went on to give a general outline of the case that bad been set up for the plaintiff, and asked the jr-y whether they thought that upon the facto before them they would be justified in returning a verdict that would deprive the poor ladies who were the reel defendant; in the action, end their children, of this yrapesty, and eaable Mr. W. Roupell to obtain 200,0001. worth of property for his family upon the supposition that the deeds by which he bad pealed the property away were forged and counterfeited. Mr. Bomil had not concluded hie address when the court INC The Smacrroz-Gmfgant AND TIER Hosts SHCRE- Tair.—Yeaterday morning, in the Commons, there was con salvable difficulty in constituting " • house," end it was half-peat 12 before the requisite 40 members could be got together to enable the Speaker to take the chair. At about 20 minutes past 12 Sir Roundell Palmer, the Solicitor- Genoa), suddenly rose and made towards the door, through which the Sergeant-at-Arms allowed him to pass, in viola tion of the standing order, which provides that when once to the chamber • member must not leave until "a house" is made. No sooner had the learned gentleman passed through the glans door than be was met by one of the officials out side, who sternly sent him back to the ministerial beaches amidst the titters of those who were already prisoners. A minute or two after this Sir George Grey, apparently remembering an engagement, and not having nottced what had just occurred, made off in a hurried way towards the door, the Sargeaot-at-Arms by this time having left the house. But the Horne Secretary fared no better than the Solicitor-General. The scrupulous doorkeeper solemnly reminded him of the risk he was incurring in running counter to the rules of the house, and Sir George Grey walked quietly back to his seat, where be remained until the 40th member appeared, and the business of the day began. THE VIADUCT AT LUDOATZ-HILL.—At the meet ing of the City Commissioners of Sewers on Tuesday, • communicatioa was made that the Loucks", Chartism, sad Dover Railway Company, in consideration of the opposition by the corporation, had entered into an arrangement with the commission, on their bill passing, to execute the work in the manner originally arranged with the commission, namely, to widen Ludgate-hill 70f t.. at the bottom, to make other improvements in the roadway, and to construct the ; viaduct to their satisfaction with regard to ornamentation. ALLSORD MURDZR AT HAGGERSTON. Last evening Mr. H. Raffles Welthew, the deputy coroner for Middlesex, opened an inquiry at the Duke of Sussex Were, Haggerston-bridge, Shoreditch, relative to the death of Elisabeth Gorman, aged 72, who died from violence at No. 15, Martha-street, Haggerstoe. It ap peared that the deceased was the widow of a master tailor. On Saturday evening last a diaries warrant had been issued spinet • lodger named Alfred Horatio Busby by Mr. Francis Sherd. the landlord, for the sum of 7s. 64 Busby disputed the claim, although the broker's men ware in possession of the goods. About ball-pest 8 o'clock Busby went into the room and endeavoured to remove a bedstead, when the deceased interfered. Busby said, "Get out of the way you dirty —,* and struck the deceased, who fell down. She 'was raised up and carried Into her own room. She was placed M bed, and died at 5 o'clock on Sunday monis& A police-constable was sent for, and Busby was Mime into custody. The prisoner is • carpenter, and bad had notice to give op possession, but he obstinately refused to do so. A distraint had been previously issued far other arrears, and he bad received notice to quit, but the broker put in an execution before the notice had ex pired. Busby applied to the magistrate, who decided that the goods were to be given up on the payment of the rent due. Mr. W. H. Johnson, • broker, of Goidamith-row, Hackney-road, said that he went to the house oa Saturday night last, when he found Busby bad placed a flag out of the frost window. He went into the passage, and found Busby in the act of carrying out a bed. There was a crowd iu frost of the house taking his part, He saw Busby posh the de ceased while in • state of excitement ; at the same time be called her a vile name. He did not believe that Busby in- Seeded to kill her, as the set was done in the beat of the moment. Henry Hemet, the broker's man, gave con firmatory evidence. Mr. (deed, assistant to Dr. Green wood, of Queen's-road, Ralston, said that he found the deceased with bloody muse issuing front the mouth, and in • state of insensibility. She died shortly afterwards. The immediate canoe of death was effusion of serum into the ventricles of the brain. The injury might arise from external violence. The jury returued • verdict of "Manslaughter against Alfred Horatio Busby for killing and slaying Elizabeth Gorman." - - FATAL ACCIDiNT ON IHE LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOD= RAlLWAT.—Yesterday Kr. T. Hills, one of the coroners for Kent, held an investigation into the circum stances attending the death of John Mitchell, aged 35, em ployed on the Loodoo, Chatham, and Dover Railway, who lost his life the previous evening at the Rainham station, by being run over by a passing excursion tram on He way from Chatham to Dover. The evidence of George Ralph, a sig. neiman on the Lae, went to show that the deceased sod another man came down the road leading on to the railway and attempted to paw through the gates, which at the time were closed, as en up-train was then almost doe. The wit ness warne d them of the danger they were incurring in at tempting to crass the line, as, in addition to the ordinary peseenpr train, the down excursion fast train to Dover was then due. The signalmau then went to signal the train to the next station at New Bromptoo, and on looking round saw the deceased and his friend pass through the gates on to the line. He at once shouted to them to go beck, when they both hesitated, the deceased still making his way WOW the line, while his companion went beck. At that moment the excursion train same op at great speed, and before the deceased had time to get off the hoe he wes naught by the engine, which wait over him, mangling hie body in • dreadful manner, death being instantaneous. James Pollock, the driver of the exonrsion train, said be did sot see the deorsed, sod was not aware of the accident until be arrived at the Dover terminus. The jury, on this evidence, returned a verdict of " Accidental death." Ords• Gnawer.—T.

The " vanvrard clouds" of gloomy days did not quite exhaust themselves in yesterday's rain, for this morning opened dark and gloomy, and por tended another wet afternoon. Fortunately for the success of the show on yesterday and to-day the forenoon wore only a bad prospect, and as those who are bent ou excursions of pleasure generally assume the sunny side of the future, this san guine class of persons augured that the day would hold up—that the clouds would break, and the evening turn out fine. Thousands who same to see the show under the uncertainty of the weather would undoubtedly have postponed their visit, if the mornings of Tuesday and Wednesday were anything like what the afternoons turned out to be. The success of the show, so far as the number of visitors was concerned, though im perilled, was not spoiled, and when it is stated that 7,683 persons paid their half-crowns yesterday, and probably as many . more to-day, it will be re cognised that, in spite of adverse circum stances, the Worcester show is a great fact. The total receipts up to Tuesday evening amounted to about 1,4601., of which 9601, was taken yesterday (the first half-crown day), 4031. on Monday (the half-guinea day), and 901. last week. The receipts of to-day cannot fall far short of those of yesterday. The steam cultivators were again at work this morning on Mr. Coney's farm, but they seem to excite little attention, except on the part of those who are immediately interested in the result. Ido not know whether any of our agricultural "Excel sior." devote much of their spare momenta to the reading of the archives of the 'aged° University, but they will find there that Swift reports as one of the ingenious contrivances pro posed for the ploughing of land, that acorns and chesnuta should be 8 by 6 inches apart, and that a drove of swine should be then turned into the fields to be rooted up. By this ingenious process three results would be accomplished at once—the fields would be turned over ; they would be manured ; and the pigs would be fed. Last night a public meeting was held in the Guildhall on this important subject—not the pig-ploughing system—but the steam-cultivating system • Mr. J. C. Mor ton, of Straitly, Rea ding, in the chair. The meeting was very well attended, and was ad dressed by Mr. J. A. Clarke, of Long Sutton, Liecolnshire • Mr. Sewel Reed, of Plumstead, Norfolk ; Mr. Dring, of Cloxby, Lincolnshire ; Mr. Williams, of Baydon,Wiltshire ; Mr. Williams, of Abingdon • Mr. Duckham ; Mr. Denton, of Stevenage, Heta ; Mr. Hatfield, of Stamford ; Mr. Smith, and Mr. Howard Reed, all of them having had more or less experience of cultiva tion by steam. That practice was recom mended to farmers for general adoption • and as the expense of steam cultivators was admit ted to be generally beyond the reach of individual farmers, it was suggested that a company should be formed for the purpose of enabling farmers to buy the cul tivators by instalments, or to hire them. The horse-ring was the principal attraction of the show to-day. There were some thousands of per sons surrounding the parallelo gra m which fenced the ground, and the action and bearing of the ani mals were the theme of general admiration. It wee mentioned that Lord Coventry was a purchaser of two or three of the principal prize horses. THE ROUPELL FORGERIES. The evidence for the defendants in this case was again proceeded with yesterday 'morning as Chelmsford urns. — As on the previous days William !taupell was brought to the court in custody of two warders, end he took his scat in the dock, and remained there during the whole of the proceedings. He appeared to pay alais ettention to the testimony gives by the different vitamins who were ens mined. Their evidence was to the effect that the signature to the deed of gift was a genuine signature. Mr. W. Dadley rid be was a solicitor in the Southwark road, and with hi partners acted in that capacity for the doomed far a great =say years, and was well emanated with his handwriting. He behoved the signature to the deed of gift was • genuine signature. Crossexamined—Witoess had been oonoerncd profession ' illy for the purchase of one portion of the property of the demand. Several deeds were then shown to the witness, and he identified his sinners as the attesting witness to them. They were all deeds executed by the dammed Re-examined—Witness had attested the signature of the deceased to a great many other deeds than those now produced. Mr. Alfred Hirwood, clerk and cashier in the London Joint Stock Bank, when the deceased also had an account since 1838, said that he bad, personally, only paid two cheques of the deceased, but he bad compared • great num ber of genuine cheques—about a hundred—with the signa ture to the deed of gift, arid he was of opinion that this signature was genuine, and if he had sem it upon • cheque he should have paid it. Cross-examined—Witness formed his opinion from • comparison of the cheques, end also looking at the signature of the deceased in the signature book. He wondered there was no differeoce between the signatures, and although there might bosoms slight distinctions in the signatures the general character of the two signatures was premsely the same. Witness was not en expert. When a cheque was presented he did not look for minute particulars, but exercised his best judgment whether the aignature was genuine or not, in order to motion the bank. The whams added that it had for ten years been the practice to submit doubtful signatures to hint, and be bad never once failed in the judgment he had given. Mr. Mills, an engraver, employed at the Bank of England in eograving Bank notes, said that be had had • great deal of experience in matters cocooned with engraving sad hand writing, and be bad examined the deed of gift and compared the signature with those upon a needier of re. ceipte aimed by the dowses& and he believed it was the genuine signature of the person who had signed the receipts. Crassexamioed— Witome had sometimes been asked to eVe his opinion as to a particular handwriting, but he woe not an „ expert," and bed never given evidence in a court of justice until the present occasion. He had observed that there were small differeeces in some of the signatures, but be formed the conclusion he had arrived at from • general comparison of the different signatures and the character of the handwriting. In some cease the "o" war made like an " a," bat in others it was made like the ordinary let ter " o." Re-examined—Witness spent several hours in a careful examination of the signatures and the handwriting, and the conclusioc he arrived at was that the signature to the deed of gift wo a genuine signature. He attended to give evi dence on this ocaudon by special permission of the directors of the Boot of Englaad. Mr. E. Wedford, a gentlem►n engaged at the National Debt office, deposed that be bad bad great experience in wane:ion with handwriting sad supwares, and be was of opinion that the signature to the deed of gift was the genuine signature of the perm: who wrote the rettipts. Ili:. T. Keymer, who had been 'employed for 3lyeam in the Gecieral Posaoffine, and was for • great many years an inspector of franks, and who said that his present employ ment in the establishment was that of inspector of official correspondence, gave similar evidence with regard to the signature of the deceased to the deed of gdt. In his opinion It was free and natural, and a genuine signature. Crow-examined —There were scene slight differences be tween the signatures that were shown to him and that to the deed of gift, but the result of witasse's experience was that hardly any one ever wrote his signature always in the NMI manner. Mr. G. J. Pickatt,who mid be bad been ooeupied in the bu siness of an impairer for wee than bell a century, and was priecipally engaged in engraving bank notes, also stated that in his opinion the signature to the deed of gift was a genuine signature, and be said he came to this conclusion irrespective of any comparison of hafidwi itiug. He had, however, compared the signature with the signatures to the receipts that had been shown him, and this confirmed the conclusion he had arrived at. le cross-examination this witness, like the others, said that he had paid particular attention to all the peculis.-ities and deviations in the signature, and he still came to the con elusion he had mentioned. -- Mr. Edwin Whitaker said—l am a solicitor, and wry on IMMO/ with my brother in Lincoln's•ins-fields. The deed of gift now produced was prepared is my office, and I attested the . sagaature of William Respell that appears to it, and at ii i time the deed was complete and bore upon it Se signatures of Truman and Dove se attesting intonate to the signature of Richard Palmer RoupelL I bad written the words "signed, sealed, and delivered in the preseoco of " before the deed was sent away for the father's signs tare.

EX TASTE Dt'PLOP RE Amato-mom AOIICRLITEAL TAADINO COIOAST--BANIERUPTCY. Mr. Roxburgh, io the matter of the wiricliog up of theabove company M haokruptoy, applied to kayo the wee of Mr. Dunlop removed from the list of contributories, oo the grouod that he bad ne►er applied for or received shares in the company. This application wu necessar► on appeal to the Lord Chancellor sitting in bankruptc► and Chancery, because the commissiour boding a name on the registry of a joist•stock compan► bad no juridietics to remove it, but was obliged to place the penon on the list of contribu tories. ~ Mr. J. Made Palmer was for the official liquidator, to The Lord Chancellor, in making the order, asked whether there were no means of ascertaining by whose falsehood and fraud the name had been put on the registry. He desired it to be understood, that in the first case of tips kind in which the parson guilty of such a fraud was discovered, be should direct a public prosecution against him. II PART! ADAMS-IR ADAMS. This was an appeal by Mr. Adams, formerly • hinter, naltster, and farmer, at Ware, whose bankruptcy was annulled a few years ago, against an order of Mr. Com missioner Fans. The bankrupt's certificate was refused in 1838, on the ground of concealment of property; but on entering into a composition, the bankruptcy was annulled in May, 18,80. The oommissioser bad made an order eettiog aside the annulling of the bankruptcy; and against this the appeal was brought. The petition to the commissioner prayed that an inquiry be instituted by the eximinatioo of Adams, and all other and necessary persons, for the purpose of discovering the extent and particulars of concealment by the bankrupt, and if it appeared as the result of that inquiry that the bankrupt had wilfully withheld any of his property and effects, then the order annulling the bankruptcy kis set aside. The ques tion was whether, after the creditors in the exercise of their right ander the Bankruptcy Act of 1849, of accepting • composition from a bankrupt, had entered into such com panties the commissioner had judidiction to set aside the proceedings by which the bankruptcy was annulled as the result of the composition ; and also whether the Lord Chancellor sitting in bankruptcy had any such jurisdiction. It was also a question whether the commissioners had jurisdiction to review the order annulling the bankruptcy at any indefinite time, and whether, if the Lord Chancellor had jurisdiction to review such order on appeal, the time for such appeal had oat long since lapsed. Mr. Sargood and Mr. Herbert Smith appeared for the appeal ; Mr. Noon and Mr. Hardy oo the other side. The Load Chancellor said that he must direct that the oommissiooer's order he discharged, as at the tiros of the composition the creditors were aware that the last examina tion of the binkrapt was false and fraudulent, and there fore they could not have been misled into accepting it. He did not give sal opinion on the qualities of jurisdiction, his judgment turning on the point that the,, was a personal bar to the order. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME OIRCIIIT.—Lzwis, JuLY 22. (Before Mr. Baron Bramwell) _ MI WIZ OF 711•80111 TllO7. Bilge rh0w;L:1;13,37.;, - .4iiiprot WW t, cob driver, were indicted for othesaling the finding of certain pieces of gold, of the weight of 11th.. or thereabouta, of the value of 6301., then lately found by William Butcher while plough. lag in a field in the parish of Mountfield„ on the 12th January, and which said pieces were of ancient times de posited as aforamid, sod are now the property of our lady the Queue. The Hoe. Yr. Denman prosecuted on the part of the mown, easieted by Mr. Heise ; the prisoners were defended by Mr. Ribton and Mr. Gates. Yr. Denman, in opening the cam for th e prosecution, stated the facts, sod imid this was • charge of • very unusual nature, probably one of • kind that nose of them bad ever heard of or been engaged in Wore. According to Blackstone's Commec titles the law in the case of treasure trove was, " If any person lad any ancient coin, plate, or bullion concealed in the earth or in say field, and if the roe be not owned by any person, that the same shall belong to the Ring ; but if soy ODO shell find property of a similar cha racter, which can be proved to have been abandoned sad not coecealed, then it shall become the property of the finder." This law only applied to gold and silver, sod not to any other metal or substance of any kind, and in ancient times the punuthment for concealing this treasure trove was death, but it Wain°, been most properly commuted to fine and imprisonment. Now it appeared that on the 12th Jaa. • man named Butcher was ploughing in • field imar Mount field, and he ploughed up something which he at first took to be bear. There were • number of rings, one appeared to have been made to go round the body, arid some of the others seemed to be circlets; for the arms and peak. There were also several pieces shaped like horse shoes, and several °isms of what might at one time have been part of a kingly breastplate. Altogether there were about twenty pieces, the largest one being perhaps • yard long, but almost doubled up The man th ought that this last piece had been • mmimfinstmment. The spike of the plough had entered into the ground about eighteen inches when the first piece was dug up. In the evening Botcher took them home and showed them to his neighbours and acquaintances, as, although he did not suppose they were valuable, he at the same time thought there was something very striking about them. AU his neighbours agreed with him that they were braes, and they were pot for the night in the stable. The nest day Thocossearne to him and asked to look at them. Now this gold was of • very peculiar nature ; no doubt old Celtic ornaments used by the moth ancient inhabitants of Great Britain before it was conquered by the Romans. Well, no sooner did Thomas see thews articles than he said he had • brother who bought old beam, and that if Butcher would let him have two or three pieties as samples he would buy the whole of him and give him 6d. per lb. He was allowed to take two pieces, and be returned the MUM evening, but in the meantime, Oa he (the learned counsel) would prove by witnesses, be went to Heating', and inquired in • }mailer's shop whether that which be bad got from Butcher was brass or gold, and upon being told that it wee gold he asked the man if he would buy it. He returned the same evening to Butcher with • steelyard and purchased the whole amount, for which be paid Is. 6d., telling him at the same time that if he got mom for it be would return him the surplus. Butcher hearing rumours that it was more valua ble than stated by Thomas, spoke to him about it, when the latter said that it was probable there might be • little silver in it, but be did sot yet brow, and if there should be any in it Butcher should hays it made up to him. The latter after wards saw Willet, who told him that he had given 54.6 d. to Thomas for it, but there could not be the slightest doubt that they knew at tbat time that it was gold—for previous to that time, on the 23rd of January, it would be proved that Willth went to London, and sold the whole of the " brew" for 5301. to Messrs. Brown and Wiugrove, of Wood street, Cbeapeide, gold refioera He was paid by • cheque on Glyn's bank. That cheque he changed the same day, and the notes which he received were afterwards lodged in • bank in Rutin& The two prisoners became all at once apparently rich, and rumours went abroad which re sulted in an °Soar going to Whist, and asking him if be knew that be had bought a large quantity of gold sa brass, " Nonsense," said Whist, " I am an old Wherein) miner, and know what's what" and no doubt he did so, or be would never have purchased it. An inquest was afterwards held upon this treasure trove, and ultimately the two prisoners were given into custody. He would now call his witnesses, and then leave the case to the jury. The above facts were thei proved by • large number of witnesses whose examination lasted some considerable time. Mr. Ribton, on behalf of the prisoners, addressed the jury at some length. He told them that such a eau bad never before been tried in this country, sod they were asked to convict two men who had always borne a moat irreproachable character, who, finding a cheery of adding to eir income, did not scruple to do so, and, u they thought, honestly. No doubt this was the first time they had ever beard thelaw of treasure trove laid down. He would ask them to weigh well these points :—First, whether the trea sure was really hidden in the meaning of the act ; and, second, whether they did not think that it had been know ingly abandoned. If so, there was no cue against the pri soners, and he would ask them to acquit them. In the course of a very humorous speech the learned gentleman referred to • labourer who had found a golden circlet on Lord Palmerston's estate, stating that his lordship had given 301. to him for it, and retained it in his possession. It he bad been arraigned before them, would they for a moment have entertained the charge? And what would the learned judge have dooe if Lord Palmerston had been brought before him Baron Bramwell—Tried him aooording to the evidence the lame rie any other man. (Roars of laughter.) But hie lord ship holds a grant from the original lessees of the land in question, dated sereral centuries back, entitling him to ell treasure trove there found. Mr. Denman rose to reply, when Mr. Bibles objected, the Attorney-General not prosecuting in person ; but big lordship ruled that the first-named gentleman was entitled to his reply, as he represented the Attorney-General. The reply was then made, after which the Judge summed up. He prefaced his remarks by stating that this was the first case of the kind that had ever cowe before him, and he had no recollection of having reed such a one in his books. There was no doubt that the law was laid down with regard to such cases, and it must be carried out. Of course they did not look upon the two men at the bar as they would upon those who were charged with hone-stealing or cutting and wounding; but at the same time they had com mitted a crime stalest the law of the land, and in no land were laws so well kept as in this land, most probably because they were made by the people themselves; for if it was disliked by the bulk of the people it wee woe altered. With regard to the case in question, hie lordship could see no reason why property of this kind should go to the finder, except upon the schoolboy adage of "finning keeping." As question for them to consider was whether this was what was called treasure trove, that was to say, was it treasure that had been buried? If they ware of opinion that it was not, then there was a end of the cane. It might be that one of the Phoenicians, or the Romans, or Danes, or Normans, to whom Mr. Ribtoo had referred, had buried his tresaure, and wasafterwards obliged so fly, or had fallen in battle, and thee* the trove remained unti► d up 4 peer Buteiter,. vibe bad not much bmalltad by tt, whoever else might have The next question wee whether the primers cammaled it, knowing it to be gold. and dealing with it in • manner to benefit themselves. Bat the Ginnie they would see was not of emosaling the trusser., but ooncesliag the finding of it. With those few observations he left the ems in the hands of the jury. The jury almost at once returned • verdict of Guilty against both prisoners. Mr. Ribton then took an objection to the wording of the indictment. He thought that the word "fraudulent" ought to have been ineerted, and gave notice of so appeal. A lengthy discussion then took pleas. and in the end hie lordship said the cans most steed over to be argued in the Court of Criminal Appeal. The prisoners were then liberated, ball being takes—two sureties in 1501. for Willet, and the same for Thanes. Joseph Huinsisetr, • labourer, pleaded guilty to a thugs of signing • false notice, directed to and making • false de. daratioa to Mr. Henry John Bartlett, superintendent of the Lewes district, fee the purpose of procuring his (prisoner's) marriage with Frances Reed. He was also charged with making • false declination before John Cooke, registrar of the Lewes dl met, for the purposeof procuring his marriage with Frames Reed, hie deceased wife's sister. The learned Judge sentenced him to two months' im prisonment. PAilariciphia Barnett, 21, and Charlotte Lidbetkr. 14, were indicted for weaseling the birth of • child of the elder prisoner, and were sentenced to three days' imprison ment. This being the whole of the criminal mei al the arises, the civil business was at once prooneded with is the nisi pries court. The eases tried, however, were of so pima interest. THE POLICE COURT& WORBHIPZIILEBT. Henry Palster,re•yeetalyideseesi man of 33 yeuv, was cluirged by Harry Win t, a plain clothes constable of the divuuoe with being a suspected person. The evidence of the officer was that on the previous night he caught sight of the prismier in the street, remembered hie antecedents, followed him, and seeing him endeavour to open the street-door of a private house with a key, took bun isto custody. When searched twelve keys of the ordi nary pettera, but filed down so as to serve the purpcee of " skeletons" were found upon him. Premier—Not one of the ere **bike keys ; they all open doors in my house. Mr. Hurlstone (chief clerk)—That is very possible. I think you have been here before? Prisoner—And that m very pomade too, but it wee yam no. t Evans, division—l know this ma• well ; iiideV ia ? may say he has been under my adios on and off for at least sixteen years.

He escaped in 1866 from his confinernebt, but was caught, tried. and sentenced to four years' imprisonment is nasal servitude, which be " did ;" sad, since his return, he has ben in cus tody as a suspected pence. The prisoner who appeared mush surprised at him* been " observed so accurately throughout his career, now said—Well, you seem to know something ; but I can swear that it is many years ago since I was here ; sad as to those being "skeletons," why it's all nonsense. Mr. Hurlstoos— What do you say to trying them or. • door. as mentioned by the constable! Primmer—Say ! Why th at's all stuff likewise. I did nothing of the kind. After some further observations to the same effect, it was held that two of the keys in question were virtually "skeletons," and the pewee* was met to prim for the term of three months for the ammo of corning than. THE ATTEMPTED DOUBLE MURDER IN A RAILWAY CARRIAGE. The prisoner was yesterday morning taken for examination before the beech of magistrates at New port Pigpen, Buckinghamshire. The following oert;fi rate was heeded in :—" Wednesday, July 22, 1863. I hereby certify that James Worland and Peter /Mean ere not in a fit state to leave their abodes to go to give evidence to-day. In addition I have to add that Mr. M'Lesn's child died at an early hour this morning. —Wu.mast Baur, M.D., ha, Blackwell." The prisoner, on being placed at the bar, exhibited a mild and placid demeanour, certainly not betokening any of the ferocity ascribed to him. He was brought up from Fenny Stratford by Superintendent Breezy, of the Bucks county police, in whom charge be has been sine* his removal from Loodoo. Sites the prisoner has been under confinement be has been apparently perfectly asitional, and has repeatedly stated that be knew nothing about the affray beyond think ing that the two persons whom he awaited in the oarrfage were about to rob him. He has Irritate two letters, one to his wife, and the other to a solicitor at Aylesbury, who a peered for him yesterday. The following listen were headed to the bench for per oral : " Itavensdale.park, Newry, July 20, 1863.—Hz,—Having just been informed of the arrest of Mr. Michael LycA b. a schoolmaster, residing on my estate in the county of for aseaultiog persons in a railwey carriage whilst is a state of imanity, I beg leave to my that I am aware that upon another occasion, about three years ago, Lyons was attacked with insanity. His wife goes by the steamer to night to try to see him, with a hope to be allowed to do so. Am he is NO respectable man, I trust he will be treated with every we aderation under the unfortunate circumstances into which his dangerous malady has misled him.—l ax., &c., CLARIS more." Univervity of London, Burlington-boom, Jul 20, 1863.—Sur,—Having read in the Timis of Ai morning an account of the assault committed in a railway carriage by Michael Lyons, and having' . seen that he has been brought up before you, and is to appear again oa Thursday next, I think it well to inform you that I have reason to believe in the correctors of his statement that he was on his way to undergo an examina tion here. He had requested me to aster his name as a can didate for the Ant bachelor of science examination, which commenced this morning, and had furnished to nie the ne cessary certificates, and I mosequently expected him here as yesterday. I shall be ready to ma his communications on the subject in evidence if it ohmic' be considered desirable It seems to me not unlikely that his brain has bees unsettled by overwork and by anxiety about him examine tioa .—I am, sir, your obedient servant, WLTIALII B. CAR rrarraa, M.D., Registrar." The bench, upon them lettere, decided to remand the case. The solicitor for the defence I have to apply, sir, that a sum of money amounting to 81. 3s. Std., and which cannot have had anything to do with the subject matter of the charge, may be given up to the prisoner for the purposes of his defence. After some consultation the bench 'greed that the sum of two guineas might be given up for the purposes of the de fence. The prisoner then mid he would willingly under take his own dere ice if the money could be gives to hie wife, who had to means of support either for herself or the four young children she had left. Lord Claremont bad gene rously given her the money to get to London, but she had no means of returning. He desired to ask the bench whether the railway would let her use his return ticket home. The Chairman said that the company would decide that, and the bench desired Mr. Orpen to at as to the proper oMcials of the company the suggestion which the beach wiahcd to make, that the company should take into consideration the condition of the woman, and Lot according to the best of their discretion. Mr. Orissa undertook to convey to the ra" way authorities the opinion of the bench, and the further hearing was adjourned for a week. ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.

The monthly meeting of the general committee wu held immediately oo the adjournment of the meeting of the executive committee. The Mayor of Manchester presided. Mr. Madame reed the monthly report, which said that the moue of the efforts of district committees to reduce the charge of indigence has bees furthered by the increase of outdoor work, and the revival of the cotton trade, for the time being. Owing to these combined causes 47 local mm. 'antes, had been enabled to suspend their operations, and the whole number of persons dependent on the parochial retie and the relief fonds in Dec., 1862, ban been reduced nearly ono-half. The number relieved is January, 1863, was 456.786 ; but the maximum proems bed been attained before Christmas, and was probably not far short of 51 :0V00, o that ae W.ZiO were on June 30 is receipt of relief, neatly half the harden of iedieeDoe bad bees rereeeed. The actual expenditure from parochial rates and relief funds ma in December, 1862, 289,221/., which 10 JUDO had been reduced to 102,4211.

' pool food, 3&4801. ; of the Leeds, Bradford, Had'; Huddersfield, Oxford (city), Kendal, Ipswich, Birmingham, Dundee, Worowder, York, and other feeds, which sweat to about 40,0001. The committee expected that the feeds tbas promised would be collected sad remitted to them, sod adding a further nun of 24,0(10f. eubseribed (weal fund. which is to be paid io iestalmeols, it would probably thus have at its command an winds feed of 688,0901. The whole expenditure through the &mist relief can. mittes amounted, from the emomeeseeneet of the distress in May. 1862, to Jam 30, 1.86.1. to 1,064,4131. ; of which outlay 808,2011. wee contributed from eenteal funds.
