AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS, OR IGNO RANCE TILE PROMOTER OF PANICS. (From the Circ./or ei armiers.) There are some of our present subscribers who, in former times, were accustomed to look to the pages of the Circular tor information respecting the crops at the gather ing in of the harvest in each year. Such information was sure to meet with more than urdinary attentian, whenever the uncertain state of the weather was likely to produce • deficiency in quantity, and an interim-it, Jo the queliti of the crops. V. a have discontinued the practice of making such statements in our publication, because we have felt that at best, any statements founded upon the mere personal know ledge of all individush.were vague and incomplete;and must fall far short of the required information to guide us in times of • deficient harvest ; this detect does not arise so much from this incapacity of an indi vidual to judge of tl.e nature of crops and the quality of the grain, as from the very limited field over which his judgment can be exercised. It is from having taken this view of the question that we have continually pressed upon the government, publicly and privately, the necessity of taking an accurate •y ut the extent of land actually under cultivation, and the nature of the crops grown upon it, in mit county in the Cait(d kingdom. In doing this we hue felt that we have aimed at placing the practice of agriculture upon a much more elevated foundation, and of removing it from these vague end unnecesaary generalities which have so len been associated with its pursuits. We are now arrived at another peried when, if there be not an absolute famine, then) is beyond all dispute • very great defi ciency in the yi .1.1 of grain, if not in the extent of land under cultivation. Lut we are as far off as ever from any data by which we can arrive at any accurate knowledge of either one Of the other of these facts. And though we have hitherto tailed in establishing anything beyond the mere admission that it would be a very desirable thing to hive an acceratesur wry of the extent and description of grain we actually grow ; yet we praceed from one famine to another without making • single step in advance upon so important a branch of social knowledge. We may, however, hope that the cit cumstanees by which we are surrounded at the present time will give strength to the remsrke which we have so frequently made upon this subject. If any argument were required to prove the utter uselessness of the opinions of men whose ezyerienes gives considerable weight to what they advance, it will be found in the extraordinary discrepancy in their estimates of the deficiency of the pre sent harvest, and the probable supplies we shill require to meet that deficiency. We find that some writers talk of eighteen million quarters of grain; and one writer con fidently asJerts—" this country aill certainly require an im portation of eighteen million quarters of wheat between the harvests Ittli and ISA." But on what basis an estimate of 18 million quarters of wheat can be made, we are wholly at a loss to conceive. We believe our requirements in 1847 were nearer than any tear by which we can approach a fairestimate, as we stated last week with regard to the cost of grain. Our imports of wheat in that year amounted to' ,630,090 quarters, and of flour to 6,326,024 cwts. ; snaking a total of 4,438,096 quarters. The quantity entered for consumption was 2,831,893 quarters of wheat, and 6.810,843 ewts. of altar, being equi valent to 4;97,891 quarters. Now, if in the year 1817 less than five million quarters of wheat and flout were im ported, and were semcieat to reduce the prices from 102 s. 3d. per quarter in May to 495. 6d. • quarter in Sep tember, must not the estimated demand fur 18 million quarters of wheat, or even 10 millione, be • most exag gerated one, and founded neither en reason nor analogy ? We cannot be therefore surprised that bankers and merchants should be panic-stricken when they ilnd state ments such as these put forward by respectable autho rities. But we ask why the country should be 'surfer the necessity of depending upon such con tradictory and alarming statements, and especially in concurrence with other difficulties, when we have the means of arriving at the facts of the cue ? We find upon no - other s&sject so many persons desirous ;of establishing an opinion of their own as upon the abundance or defi ciency of the harvest. But the supply of food for a great nation should be kno en with as much accuracy as the esti- 1 mates of the revenue and exnditure. We are accus tomed to regard with no small pe degree of censure thou we denominate " speculators in grain." But why are their speculations frequently curried to such an extent that ruin ous consequences ensue? The reply is simply, because they donut know what we grow ; and they therefore know not what we ought to import. We have been told by some of the largest importers of foreign grain, that nothing would be so valuable to them as the collection of agricultural statistics at a proper period, on which they could rely for the extent of land under cultivation, of cacti kind of grain ; the yield being easily determined with sufficient accuracy. It is well known that no article of daily consumption is so soon reduced in price u wheat, when the supply is in excess of the demand. But when one authority tells us nest we require ten millions of quar ters, end another eighteen millions, to meet our demands,in the coming year, who can regulate his transactions with safety ? Ihe consequence is that bankers, merchants, agriculturists, end the public, all run the risk of suffering from this system of groping in the dark. This is an age of facts with regard to science, why not with regard to agriculture ? It is mere childishness to tell us we cannot reckon tho acre. a men tills, if we can discover Low many windows there arc in the country. We believe that we have failed in acquiring this information, because a set of theorists have demanded too much for the goverment to accomplish, and by burthening the fanner with too many details. We would recommend that every occupier of land should simply give Lis risme, •41..ress, the quantity of land he occupies, and the nature of in produce. This would be requiring only what could be done without either trouble or annoyaore. But so long as a desire is kept up to know how many horses, bullocks, sheep, dogs, cats, &c., are kept by the farmer, the subject is encumbered by a variety of useless expense and trouble, and is exposed to innumerable objections. The only reply that hat been obtained from government respecting the statistic/ of agriculture, has been that they are waiting to re ceive some plans which are being carried out in Scotland, and that they intend to try a single county in England. We need not say that such patching to accomplish a great so cial work is wholly unworthy of the government of a great industrial community. Then as to the expense; why there is no department of the public revenue so uselessly squan dered aw.,y as that which comprehends the statistics of our trade and commerce. We bring no charge against any in dividual for its mismanagement. It is the system of which we complain ; for many of these returns are renderea wholly useless by the delay in issuing them. We may take the agricultural statistics of Ireland as an illustration. These ponderous volumes afford no information on the question of grain to be used at the proper time. And if it be intended that similar returns should be made for England, they will be mire likely to find their way into the butter shops than into the counting-house of the mer chant or corn-dealer. We think it cannot be too forcibly impressed upon thou who are desirous to put an end to the intolerable ignorance we are under regarding the extent of our grain crops, that we should adopt, in the first in stance at least, a very simple plan—the collection of them should be simultaneous, at a period when it would be im possible to give a false return, without the means of de tection—that they should be forwarded to one central esta blishment by a certain date—and made public with all pus-i sible speed in a summary form for each county. Why should such a mystery he made about this affair ? We will venture to affirm that a few business men to arrange the rehires, and a good staff of industrious clerks would have them complete before the commencement of harvest. And until we obtain such facts for our guidance we shall always be compelled to trust to all sorts of vague and speculative opinions regarding our h ts. MELANCHOLY DEATIL—On Saturday evening Mr. W.

Joseph Legge surrendered to take his trial for misde meuncr. Mr. Dearsley and Mr. Thompson prosecuted ; Mr. Itibton appeared for the defendant. The circumstances under which the present charge was preferred were fully detailed upon the trial of the de tend.uit two Sr three sessions ago, upon which occasion he was convicted, but judgment was afterwards respited upon a technical objection taken by Mr. Ballantine, who then ap peared for the defendant, to the form of the indictment. The defendant, it will he remembered, carried on, in part. nership with his brother, the business of an upholsterer at Pimlico, anti open their becoming bankrupts their debts to different creditors amounted to 1,3001. and upwards. They appeared to bays bad little or no capital when they com menced business, and upon the creditors causing an inquiry to he ina.ie it was ascertained that a very large quan tity .of property had been removed to a house in York place, Southampton, which was occupied by a person who went by the name of Marshall, and upon the defendant being examined at the Bankruptcy Court, after having made the usual declaration required by the statute, he stated in his examination that this Marshall was a person whom he had only known fur a abort period, and that ho was a speculator and hod advanced him money at different times upon the security of the furniture that had been placed in his possessi It turned out, however, that Marshall was the father of the defendant, end there ap peared to be no doubt that the property had been placed in the house at Southampton wit► the object of ultimately de frauding the creditors of it. In a second examination of the defendant he admitted that what he had before stated was false, and that Marsh .11, the person referred to, was in reality Samuel Marshall Legge, his own father, an:. upon this the present indictment was preferred against the defen dant, fur having wilfully and corruptly made a false statement before the Cuent of Bankruptcy, by which lie incurred the penalties of the crime of perjury. The jury wiC.out any hesitation returned a verdict of Gallty, and the dsfendout was sentenced to be imprisoned and kept to bard labour for 12 months. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.-YESTERDAT. The sittings of the court (or the September general ses sion were resumed this morning at the Guildhall, Broad Sanctuary, Westminstrr, before Mr. Scrjeant Adams, As sistant Judge, Mr. Witham, Mr. Augustus Robinson, &c. The number of prisouen committed for trial was 103, of which number tti were charged with felony and 9 with mis demeanor. The Assistant Judge shortly addressed the grand jury after they had been sworn. Leon Nathan, 34, a Frenchman, was indicted for having stolen 43 sovereigns and other meuiea, belonging to Solomon Joel, in a dwelling-house. This case was remanded from last session, the prisoner hav,eg, when arraigned, availed himself of his right to de mand to be tried by a half-foreign jury. Mr. Woollen and Mr. Taylor appeared for the prosecu tion: the prisoner was undefended. The prosecutor, • foreigner, but well conversant with the English language, carried on the business of a chiropodist, and lived at :co. 9, Poland-street, Soho-square. It appeared that he and the prisoner were on hnimeto terms, and the latter was a constant visitor at the lodgiugs of the Somer. On the 11th of last month be applied to the prosecutor for the loan of 10s., with which he wanted to pay an interpreter to ga about with him to dispose of some pawnbrokers' dupli cates relating to watches, as he was without money, and the prosecutor gave him a sovereign to get changed, so that he might comply with his request. Ile went to a public house in Portland -street, and tendered the sovereign in payment for a glass of gin, but the publican refused to take it, as it was cracked, and the potmen accompanied him back to the prosecutor's lodging, when ho (prosecutor) gave ano ther sovereign, and, receiving the cracked one back, he re placed it in kis purse, in which there were • number of others. On the 12th the prisoner was still so short of money that he was compelled to pawn a case of surgical in struments. On the morning of the 13th the prosecutor was woke up by the prisoner entering his bedroom, but he did not get up, and the prisoner, knowing that he was not well, advised him to go to sleep again, which he did. ln about half an hour he woke up, and called out " Leon," but no Leon was there, and on the instant something came into his miud about his money. lie at once got out of bed, and went to a drawer in which about half an hour before the prisoner entered the room be had seen his purse, containing 431. 10s. in gold, and is. in silver, quite safe. It was then gone. Without delay he communicated his loss to the police at the Vine-street station, and telegraphed a de seription of the prisoner to Liverpool, having reason to believe that he would make fur that place, and ho then took • cab and went in the direction of a pawnbroker's shop, where the prisoner had pledged a number of gold watches, and on the way he met with the prisoner in another cab. Oa seeing him the prosecutor charged him with the theft, upon which the prisoner drew a knife and said, in French, " It's either your life or my liberty," and, opening the door on the other side of the cab, he jumped out and made his escape. On going to the pawabruker's he found that the prisoner had redeemed sia gold watches for 211. 10s , the whole of which sum he paid in gold, and one of the sove reigns was the identical cracked one which the publican re fused to give change for. The prisoner was apprehended when he went to redeem the case of instruments, the pawn broker having received information, and on his being searched seven gold watches, he cue of instruments, two sovereigns, and 17s. Bd. were found upon him. In his defence the prisoner handed in a long written statement in French, which was read to the court by an ' interpreter. It was a rambling attack on the pruecutor's character for morality. His answer to the charge as well as it could be gathered, was that it was an invention premedi tated by the prosecutor, who was aware that he was about to redeem his watches, and, with reference to the cracked sovereign, he alleged that he received it from the prose. cutar's own hands as the price of a pair of razors and some articles which he sold to him. The Assistant Judge hieing slimmed up, The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and The Assistant Judge sentenced him to one year's hard labour. Cagby, 31, and William Skinner, 33, were in dicted f x having stolen three sacks of coal, the praperty of the Great Northern Railway Company. Mr. Cooper and Mr. O'Brien prosecuted. Mr. Ilorry ap peared for the prisoners. It appeared that the prisoner Cagby was a carman in the employ of Mr. Wiggins, contractor to the Great Northern Company for the delivery of coal, and Skinner was what is termed in the coal trade " • trounce r" to Cagby. On the 17th of August they left the King's Cross Station with four tons of vial to deliver at the residence of the Earl of Jersey, for the use of the kitchen. They took the van down a mews to shoot the sacks at the proper place, and it happened that Sir Alexander Cockburn, tho Attorney- General, hail st:bles there. Sir Alexander's groom, a man named Beard, ever having seen either of the prisoners be fore, observing them delivering coal at Lord Jersey's, very coolly walked up to Caghy, and asked him if he could spare him a sack. Caghy evincing not the least indisposition to enter upon a gross piece of roguery, at once replied in the affirmative and took one sack to a loft over Sir Alexander's stables, and there shot its contents. The groom having suc ceeded so far, asked Caghy if ho could spare him more, and•„Cagby complied, and, in like manner, delivered two other socks. This was all observed by the Attorney- General's under groom, one Mason, who having had a quarrel with Beard about Mrs. Beard, told Lord Jersey's porter of the matter, and the porter told Lord Jersey, and Lord Jersey the cempsny. Cagby received the full price from Lord Jersey's servant for four tons, and bey empty sacks were counted, and for the three sacks taken to the stables Beard rewarded him with three shillings and a pot of beer. They were apprehended on the 27th of August. The evidence of Beard and Mason clearly proved the guilt of Cagby, but not the complicity of Skinner. The jury Acquitted Skinner, and found Caghy They recommended him to mercy on the ground that he had Seen led into temptation by the witness Beard, whom they thought ought to be strongly reprimanded. The Assistant• Judge agreed with the latter part of the verdict, but not with the recommendation. lie did not think a man entitled to a recommendation who could so easily be prevailed upon by a total stranger to commit a very serious rubbery and breach of trust. Ile then sen tenced Caghy to nine months hard labour, and with regard to Beard, said his conduct was detestable, and his expenses would not be allowed. - IT'llis;;sStreelinsatisrges, a well deemed man, 27, was Indicted lee omboulioi throe ow of mosey, amounting to 131. 3•. GI, which hs had receistd for and on account of Charles J.,hn Stewart, his master. Mr. Clarkson prosecuted. The prisener conducted his own defence. . . The prosecutor a u a bookseller in King William-street, Strand, and the prisoner bad been in his service, as clerk tad cashier, fur about seven years and • half, his salary during the last three years and a half being 21. per week. Suspecting that something was wrong, Mr. Stewart fixed a day for an investigation of the accounts, and when that day arrived the prisoner told him be need not enter upon any such task, and then admitted that during the last four years he had robbed him to the extent of from 3.501. to 40W. The prisoner bad been married about that time. The prosecutor, nevertheless, went on with the investiga tion, and the result was that he found that the total amount received by the prisoner and not accounted for was over 6001. The prosecutor was astounded at this, but did not give him in eharze ; and after some conversations he said lie would not prosecute him fur the embezzlements. The prisoner left town, with Mr. Stewart's knowledge, but subsequently it was discovered that he had forged his master's name to a cheque on a City banking-house for a sum remitted to them from the country on Mr. Stewart's account, and that the same proceeding bad been taken with a post-office order. t'pon this Mr. Stewart caused the prisoner to be apprehended, and on the ease of forgery being gone into before a magistrate, the charge of forgery broke down, and the prisoner was sent for trial on thee° charges of embezzle ment. The payment of the three sums to the prisoner was proved, and Mr. Stewart showed that they had not been accounted for. The prisoner, in cross-examining the prosecutor, admitted his defalcations, and endeavoured to show that Mr. Stewart had pardoned his effence, an 1 had made the matter one of debt. Mr. Stewart denied this, and said he certainly had no intention to prosecute him for the embezzlements, and the cause of his being taken into custody wu the discovery of the forgeries. Prisoner—What wu the reason the case of forgery broke down ? Prosecutor—The reason was this. The magistrate thought that because I had given you a general authority to collect and receive money for me it was no forgery for you to sign my name to a bluker's cheque, and get the money and keep it. The Arsistant•Judge remarked that that certainly was an extraordinary decision; and now it was mentioned, he reeellected noticing it at the time in the newspapers. Mr. Clarkson said he certainly held up his hands with surprise when he heard it at Ilow•street. The Auistant-Judge said that it was as much as saying that because he gave a person a general authority to receive money on his account, it was no forgery for that person to write his name to a cheque for all the money he might have at his banker's. 1 he prisoner, evidently a persona education and talent, addressed the jury. The substance of what he said was that Mr. Stewart had made the thing a debt, and that it was very hard nod unjust upon him that he should now be pro secuted. lie admitted the defiiiencioi, but Mr. Stewart, he repeated, had treated the total amount as a dcbt due, and he asked the jury not to give full credit to that gentle man's evidence. Mr. Stewart said he never treated it u a debt, but at the time he had no intention of proaccutiog for the emberalo mcnt. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. The Assistant-Judge said the case was one of the grossest he had ever witnessed. He sentenced the prisoucr to be kept in penal servitude for 4 years. THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 20, 1853. THE POLICE COURTS. BOWSSTREET. Henry finnailton, alias Scutt, described as a surgeon in practice at 3, King William-street, Strand, and apparently about 40 years of age, was placed at the bar before Mr. Hall, charged with having administered drugs to a young woman to procure abortion, and also with having committed a rape upon her. Messrs. Austin, solicitor', attended for the prisoner. The prosecutrix, Elizabeth brown, deemed as follows: I am a single woman at present, and lire with my parents, at 11, Methuen-street, Idatherhithe. I am 22 years of age, and live by needlework. On Saturday morning last, at about half-past 12 o'clock, I went to the prisoner's house, and asked to see Dr. Hamilton. I had never seen bins, but I had heard talk of him, and had often read his advertise mutts in the weekly newspapers. I was shown up stairs into the drawing roam, and the Igisonercame to me there. He began by saying, "All my patients fully understand that my fee is ball-a-guinea." I had told him that I was suffering from sickness and pain in my stomach. I said that I had not got half-a-guinea with me, and had only called for his advice. lie said he would take half the money then, if I would bring the other half on Monday, which I agreed to do. I sat on the sofa by his directions, and he said that I was in the family-way. I told the prisoner that I did not know 1 was so, and asked him if he could relieve me of the pain I was suffering. He said that he might be able to do rne some good, but would like to see the young man I had been acquainted with. I replied that he was not in the way, and could not be found. [Witness then went on to state that the prisoner proceeded to act to wards her in a grossly improper manner.] I complained of his conduct and resisted him very much, but he partly effected his purpose. Before he examined me he asked me if my friends were well off, and whether I was myself, and I told him we were poor working people. He gave me two pills, to be taken at bedtime. He said if I did not submit to him he should base to use an instrument, and then I suspected that he intended to procure a miscarriage, which I did not wish. He desired me to keep the glib a secret from my friends, and said that I had Letter not mention what he had done to me to my young man as, in his ignorance , he might object to it, and it might get him (prisoner) into trouble. I left him and in half an hour afterwards I met my young man in the Strand, and told him everything that had happened. Cross-examined--The young man's name is John Smith. He is an ironmonger, and has visifed me with the know ledge of my parents. It was not Smith that recommended me to consult De. Hamilton. It was a young woman in Church -street, Itotberhithe, whom I only know as Sarah. She also works at the needle. She raid she had read his advertisements in the weekly newspapers. I did say that I did not know what had become of the young man, and that be might have gone to Australia for what I knew, as he had been talking about it. I alluded to the young min Smith, and said I had not seen him for a week, and did not know where he was. What I have described occurred in the drawing-room. The prisoner fastenzd the door and pulled down the blinds before examining me. I did not cry out, because I resisted him. I told Smith ell that passed. He did not know that I was goicg to the doctor's. I bad not seen him fur a week or fortnight before. When I met him in the Strand, after leaving Mr. Hamilton's, it was not by appointment. After I told Smith all about it I we went back to the prisoner's house together, and waited outside while he went in to speak to Mr. Hamilton. Smith did this of his own accord. 1 had given the prisoner 65., and was to take him the remaining 4s. 6d. on Monday. After Smith came away from the prisoner's we went to Bow-street police station, and had him taken into custody. John Smith (who was kept out of court during the exa mination of the prosecutrix) said—l have kept company with the last witness, with the knowledge of her parents, for three years. I lodge with my aunt at 4, New-street, Bermondsey, and am an ironmonger. I was with the pro- secutriz on Saturday morning in the Strand, and left her about 1 o'clock to go to Dr. Hamilton's, as she complained of • pain in ter side. I waited for her at the end of the street, walking about all the while she was in the prisoner's house, and joined her when she came out, by previous arrangement. She told me that she did not think Mr. Hamilton bad treated her properly, but she did not enter into all the particular' until we had got into the steam boat, on our way to London-bridge. 1 siry her home and met her again in the evoning, when we returned to the fri -1 soner's house at about half-put seven. I left her outside, and went in myself. I saw Mr. Hamilton lighting up his gas, and when I said that I wished to speak to him ho showed me up stairs. I told him that I had called about the young woman who had been with him in the morning, as I was her young man, and understood that ho wanted to see me. He said She only paid me part of my fee, 65." I asked him what the fee was required for ? lie replied, "She was pregnant, and it was for an abortion." I asked him if ho was not ashamed of himself for proposing such a thing to her, and demanded the money hack again, as he had no right to charge for such a thing. He then ordered me to leave his house, and I did so. When I got outside I spoke to a policeman about it, and he referred me to the police-station, where I went and made the charge. When the prisoner was brought to the station he (mid I had tried to get a fee from hint, which was a tales charge. Cross•examined—l have been out of a si uation unfor tunately about three week in consequence of slackness of business at my late employers, Mr. Hogg, whose shop was lately burnt down. He would be glad to have me back again if he had work to give me. Henry Fry, constable F 22, s aid , I was on duty between seven and eight o'clock on Saturday evening, in West Strand, when the prisoner came up to me and said that a man had been to him endeavouring to eatort money, end using heavy threats. He asked me if I would take him into custody if he came again, and I replied, " Yes, if I happened to be on duty at the time." About an hour aftvr wards the witness Smith cant.: to me and said that he wanted me to accompany' him to King William -street, to take the prisoner into charge for committing a rape and administering drugs for a bastard chill. I then w,ut and apprehended the prisoner on that charge. This being the case for the pros( cutler', Mr. Austin addressed the court for the prisoner, c •ntend ing that although he had no instructions to impute im proper conduct to the young woman, the manner in which she was contradicted by Smith, in some ports of his examin ation, showed a degree of untruthful' 's which was hardly to be excused by any amount of diffidence nr nervouen( as occasioned by his cross-examination. She had distinctly stated she went to Mr. Hamilton's without tho knowledge of Smith, not having seen him for a fortnight ; whereas the latter had sworn that he was waiting outaido for her. Mr. 11a11-1 may save some trouble, perhaps, by stating that I have fully made up my mind to send this prisoner for trial. This is one of those casts in which I think it necessary to abstain from offering any opinion upon the evidence before me; but I may say, that I shall he pre pared to entertiin an application to admit the prisoner to I bail, if good and substantial sureties are procured. Is the prisoner iu a large way of practice us a surgeon ? Inspector Mackenzie stated that the prisoner was net a member of the English College of Surgeons, but held an Irish diploma. Mr. Austin said he had been in practice at his present house about three years, and he had no doubt respectable bail could he readily obtained. The prisoner was then committed for trial. Two little boys, one eight years old and the other ten, I named Henry Evans and John Armstrong, were charged with stealing a donkey and cart, with a load of v getable.;' and also with stealing a horse and cart, a wheelbarrow, two other donkeys, dc., on previous occasions. The prisoners were in the habit of " touting" in the neighbourhood of the London market,, railway stations, &c., for employment to hold horses' heads, &c. They then took the first opportunity of leading their charge away, and disposing of the contents of the cart, if they hap pened to be of a saleable character. In the first case proved to-day it transpired that the prisoners were entrusted with a costermonger's cart in Long-acre, having agreed to hold the donkey's head for a penny. The pro secutor (a man named Hewett) went in the meantime to purchase some potatoes in Covent-garden, but when he re turned he found that his cart, &c., had disappeared. In formation was given to the police, and on Saturday night the cart was found in the possession of the elder prisoner (Evans). who was driving it along the New-road (near Trinity Chur, h), having previously disposed of all its con• tents, consisting of potatoes, carrots, and other vegetables, worth about IN. In another case it was proved that the same prisoner hail taken off a coal cart from the station of the Great Northern Railway. Mr. Hall said that he had never heard of such astounding charges against mere infants, and sent them both for trial to the sessions. Yesterday morning many unfortunate women were to be seen about the court with features betokening the handi work of heartless ruffians. It was altogether a sickening eight ; many of them, however, went away, rather than appear as witnesses against their brutal assailants, perhaps to fare more sadly on hearing the decision of tho following cues: _ . Jaws Macklin, described as a watch-glass maker, re siding at 23, llulei-place, St. Luke's, was charged with an inhuman assault on his wife, whose face was fri4htfully disfigured with cuts and bruises. The front ut her dress was besmeared with blood. _ . She stated that on Sunday evening her husband came home drunk, and began abusing her in a savage manner. She appeased him a little, and fed him with some dinner, when on a sudden ho pushed her from him, struck her down with a blow over her right eye, causing the blood to flow, and afterwards, while she was prostrate on the ground and altogether helpless, he beat her on various parts of the body, blackening it with almost every hit or kick. She called for assistance, and her mother coming to her aid was knocked down by the prisoner with a poker. In answer to the ,worthy magistrate the poor creature said that " she had borne her husband six chi:dren, three of whom were principally dependent on her exertions for sustenance, for she had very little help from him. The mother in part corroborated the complainant, and proved the brutal attack on herself. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the prisoner hie defence. In a surly manner he answered, " that he bad none to make." Mr. Tyrwhitt said, " these cues were truly lamentable, and it was impossible to go on in this way. He had hoped the law as it now stood would have diminished such out rages, but every day experience showed an increase of them." He sentenced the di fenduat, for the two assaults, to hard labour for four months. Iltehawl Kelly, a raw-boned Irishman, was next charged with assaulting Catherine Holmes. Complainant azid, she had cohabited with the prisoner, and been his support for a considerable time rut, by pawn ing her clothes and other worse mean.. She had no money on Saturday night, and for that reason he knocked her to the around and blackened her eyes. Mr. Tyrwhitt observed that " words would be wasted on such a vagabond," and sent him to the treadmill for two months. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. nizandis Ilnlu will, a person of ladly-like appearance, and 11 . 11.ium Hall, a servant, were brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with having created a disturbance in the public street, and thereby caused • considerable crowd to assemble. When the parties were about to be placed at the bar, a gentleman and two children, who, it turned out, were the husband and the children of the female defendant, entered the court. Their appearance appeared to rouse the feelings of the female defendant, who, with great vehemence, be gan to uphri.id her husband or having discarded her and deprived her of her children, she baying borne him Ca in eight Tears, when he, as she asserted, was unable to bring anything against her, not even, as reported, incompatibility of temper Mr. Bingham interfered, and begged the lady to mo2e rate her temper. There was a regular mode of conducting lousiness in that court, and before she could be heard in reply or defence, the charge must be stated. As the officers were about to place her at the bar with the other defendant, she with great indignation declared she would not consent to stand as a culprit beside a servant. Her husband had an income of 3,0001. a year, though she had nothing but what she stood upright in. Mr. Bingham, addressing the husband, said as his pre sence appeared to excite Mrs. Ilakewill, is would be advis able for him to quit the court. Mr. Ilskewill hoped before he left the court ho might be permitteu to make a statement. Mr. Bingham did not think that any statement of past I affairs had any bearing on the case before him, which was simply one of breach of the public peace. Mr. Ilakewill and the children, one of whom appeared to have been injured in the hand in the recent scuffle, left the court. Police constable Hinton said, about 11 o'clock that day, he saw the lady and the nt in Regent-street, struggling for the possession of two youn g children. There were at least 200 persons round them, and witneu was compelled to take both parties into custody. Defendant Hall said he was Mr. Hakewill's servant, and had charge of the children when Mrs. Hakewill met him and tried to take them away from him by force. Ho be lieved his muter was empowered by a decree of the Court of Chancery to have possession of the children. Mrs. Hakewill, who was greatly excited, denied that this was the case. The lady, in the course of a desultory statement, said Mr. Hakewill had instituted a suit in the Ecclesiastical Court against her, but had failed to make out • case. She was unjustly deprived of her children, who had been placed, as she discovered, under the care of an improper person in Jersey. Mr. Bingham would presume that the husband was in legal possession of the children ; if not, the proper courbe must bo resorted to, in order to determine the question. All he had now to do was to see that the public peace was not broken. The evidence showed this bad not been the case, and he must therefore call up-n Mrs. Ilakewill to find two sureties to keep the peace fur one month. Mary Regan was charged with stealing a purse contain. ing some silver and copper coin, the property of Mr. Wm. John Sanders, landlord of the Three Tubs, Berwick-street. Prosecutor stated that the prisoner had been in his service as cook for about • fortnight, during which time ho had been constantly missing money from the till. Not being able to detect the thief, he communicated with the police, and Sergeant Godfrey, a t:ctective officer of the C division, advised him to mark some silver and copper money, and place it in the till, which he did on Saturday night. On Sunday morning Godfrey called upon him, and in his presence he examined the contents of the till, when he missed 6s. Gd. in silver and eleven pence halfpenny in copper, all of which he had previously marked in the presence of the officer. Godfrey deposed that he went on Sunday morning to prosecutor's house, where lie saw the prisoner, and in the presence of the prosecutor asked her what she had done with the money she had taken out of her master's till. At first she denied doing so, but afterwards she admitted that she had taken elevenpence halfpenny, which she had in her box up stairs. He then went up stairs to her room, and in a work-box he found the purse produced, containing ds. Gd. in silver aad elevenpence halfpenny in copper, all of which prosecutor indentified as belonging to him. Witness then took her into custody. The prisoner was remanded fur a week. MARKETS.

MIN GIIAM.—We have to record the death of Mr. Cotterill, jun., one of the warders at our borough gaol, and which took place on Sunday last, the day after the last examina tion there by the commisaioners. It will be remembered that during the first week of the inquiry the commissioners demanded that he should be brought before them, seeing that, according to the testimony of xotne of the witnesses, he had taken a very prominent and ill-advised course in the system carried out in the gaol. It was at once stated by the gaol surgeon that be was iu such a state of nervous debility and excitement, produced by a knowledge of the institution of the ermmission of inquiry, Oat it was pro pounced unsafe for him then to mace his appearance before the commissioners, who, perhaps, having no great faith is the surgeon's representation, ordered that he should be pro duced with as little delay as possible. We presume that the terrible character of the ordeal through which he would have to pawl, as exhibited in the report of the first week's proceeding., was sufficient to overpower what energy and nerve remained in him, and he therefore sun% under the pressure of disease and mental suffering.—llietningliast Mercury. SACRILEGE.—On Saturday night, Platt Church, near Manchester, was entered by breaking one of the win dows' but the thieves do not appear to have been successful in finding anything of sufficient value to ewry away, or were disturbed before they had completed their search; for on Sunday no property was missed, after a thorough examination of the church had been made by those having charge of it.
