WESTMINSTER COUNTY COURT. Before D. C. Simian, eel., Judge. LIABTIATT OP SHERIFFS' OFFICERS FOR THE ACTS OP THEIR SERTANTS.—SCHLESINGER O. SU/MAN.—CI:RIOT'S CASE.—The plaintiff; Mr. J. Schlesinger, residing in Upper North-place, Gray's-inn-road, sought to recover of the defendant, the sheriff's officer, the sum of 61.—0 n Sun day, July 25, he was taken to the defendant's lock-up house in Cursitor-street, Chancery-hue, and delivered into the cus tody of a man named Davie, the turnkey of the establish. • ment. The plaintiff never having been in a place of that description before, knew not what to do, and in the after noon gave Davis a 51. note and a sovereign to get changer'. This was not done, but Davis declared that the money had been given to him as a bribe and kept it. The plaintiff's wife on getting into the passage of the house taxed Davis with hay ing robbed her husband, and threatened to give him in charge if he did not refund it, but ho took no notice of the matter. The next day she maw the defendant, who told her that he " had discharged Davis who owned to having the money but would not give it up." She told him that her husband would bring an action to recover the moni, but he laughed and mid " the idea of a convicted felon bri ngin g an action,"—On cross examination, the wife admitted t her husband had been convicted of perjury-, and was taken to Sloman's bowie after the conviction. She denied most positive:y that the money was given to Davis ise a bribe to let her husband out—Mr. Gill, on the part of the defendant, contended that the action was brought against the defendant for money had and received, and as such could not be maintained. No evidence had been sh sawn that Mr. Sloman had ever received a farthing of the money, or that any person, as his agent, had taken it for him. On the contrary, the evidence, Re far as it had gone, showed that the mosey was given as a bribe.—The learned judge said the evidence to him was very different, and he must hold Mr. Sloman to be liable for the act of his servant.—John Davis was sworn, and stated, that in the month of July lavt he was turnkey at Mr. Sloman's " lock up," in Cursitor-street. Ile recollected the plaintiff being brought there about one o'clock on Sunday, the 25th of July. In the course of the day a conversation took place between him and the plaintiff, when the latter made a proposition to give him 101., the diamond studs out of his shirt, and the ring off his finger to release him, but witness would not agree to it. Ho made that proposition twenty times in the course of the day, but witness refused. In the evening he " pushed " 61. into his hand, " and forced him to take it." That was given for no other purpose than to procure his discharge. The defendant had never had any part of it, but discharged witness as 'noels he heanlof the cireum stance. When the plaintiff rive the 61. he said he would give him another 61. on Monday.—The cress-examination was being continued when the Icon ned judge interposed, and said that he did not know whether he wee acting eight in admitting the witness's evidence, lie was deftly interested in the case.—After a long argument, Mr. Gill consented to a ver dict being taken against him, leave being given to move for a new tnal.—The learned counsel for the plaintiff begged to exonerate Mr. Slonsan from any participation in the act of his servant. FRACAM AT THE OFFRA.—K NIGHT r. BtwoHAK.—Mr. Charnoek said the plaintiff in the present case was principal check-taker at her Majesty's Tocarre, and sought to re cover 201. damages for an assault committed upon him by the defendant, who gave his address at the Reform Club. The summons had been left et the club-house, and that with all papers had been forwarded by the porter to Mr. Bing ham. Before the summon was issued the solicitor for the defendant had agreed to accept service, but he was not then present, and he (Mr. Charnoek) made the present Replica tion to know how they were to proceed.—The learned judge said he most have some eoidostce to prove that Mr. Bingham had received the summens.—Mr. Charnock said ell he could do was to show that the porter, at the Reform Club, had forwarded all papers left at the club-house to Mr. Bing ham, wbo was a young gentleman of fortune, but whose address they could not se-certain. If the application was noticed in the papers there could be no doubt about Mr. Bingham appearing, and the pleintiti would be saved a con siderable. deal of trouble.- The case, after some discussion, was adjourned for six lecke, the plaintiffs attorney und. r taking to see the defendant's attorney in the interim, and agree to his accepting service. THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 5, 1847. COMMITTAL OP .Igiilipl:EitON FIVE CITARCE9. —Yesterday, the notorious swindler, William Wilenhurst, was agsin brought before the magistrate at Oxford, when the evidence necessary to complete the cases was adduced. — The first charge entered into was the forgery of a letter of credit on Mears. Cocks, Biddulph, and Co., bankers, Lon don, for 3001., which the prisoner received at the bank of Messrs. Williams end Co, of Dorchester, on the llth of June.—Charles Good, clerk in Messrs. Williams' bank, de posed that on the 11th of January lest a person, »pre venting himself to be Mr. W. S. Mason, called at Mears. WillMnas took, and applied for 3001., in compliance with • letter of credit previously received, purporting to be from Mesas. Cocks, Biddnlph, and Co. Witness filled up a draft for 2671. 10s., which he produced in mutt. The prisoner gars a draft on Cocks, Biddulph, and Co., for 2671. 10s., and at the prisoner's request witness drew a draft for 321. 10.. on Cocks, Biddulph, and Co., and the prisoner signed it and received that amount is halkdietes and gold. —William Vickers, clerk to Meters. Williams, Deacon, and Co., banker', London, stated, that on the 1 2th of January last the draft now produced for 267!. 10s. was presented to him for payment, and he cashed it by giving two 1001. Bank of England notes, one 501. note, and the rest in gold and silver. The person who presented the draft wrote on the back of it " Received, G. T. Lee." Witness had no recol lection of the person.—Richard John Sykes, clerk in the issuing department of the Bank of England, deposed to changing the above notes for gold on the 12th of January last, when on applying to the person for his London address he wrote on the hack of one of the notes " Castle and Falcon." He, the witness, did not sufficiently recollect the person as to recognise him now.—Reginald Thistlewaite Cocks, of the firm of Cocks, Biddulph, and Co., de. posed that the letter of credit produced was • forgery, and had not been written or signed by himself or any of the firm, and that no person of the name of W. S. Mason had any account at their bank.—The prisoner made no defence, and was committed to take his trial at the next anises, in March; and on applying to be allowed bail, the sitting magistrate declined to accede to it, and referred his application to a judge.—The second charge was for forging • • 101. note on Mears. Robinson, Parsons, and Co., bankers, Oxford. The ad ditional evidence brought forward was that of the poli ce in serec,toori., Jaf L or i Azles . b d urj o , p roduced ~ which d with the cheq ue of 101. paid to Mr. Tomlinson, of Theme, and signed John Elison. Mr. Josh. Phillips, clerk to Messrs. Robinson and Co., identified the cheque book as the same which he gave to the prisoner on the 9th of Sept. last. There was no account at their bank in the name of John Elison. The remaining charges were for forging a draft in the name of Sir E. Filmer, Bark, on Overend, Gurney, and Co., for 3.7241. lfla. ; for for gi ng a cheque in the name orb!. C. Planted, EN., on the London and County Bank for 2511. ' • for forging another in the name of W. T. Taylor on the London and County Bank for 3101. The forgeries were distinctly proved, and, as no defence of any kind was set up by the prisoner, he was committed to take his trial upon each. BRISTOL. —A melancholy accident, accompanied by the loss of one life and injury to two workmen, occurred on Saturday at the extensive steam-engine manufactory of Messrs. Stothert, Slaughter, and Co., Avon-street, St. Phillips. A number of men were employed at a piece of machinery, called a "shears," in raising • new locomotive engine for the purpose of placing on a railway waggon, pre paratory to its being hauled to the railway terminus in Temple-meads. The engine, which weighed 14 tons, had been raised to • height of about three feet, and was within a short distance of the level of the waggon, when the shears suddenly broke, the engine was dashed to the ground, and a large piece of the broken machinery struck a labouring man, named Hobbs, and killed him on the spot. Two other workmen received injuries, more or lens extensive, and one of the engineers of the works. Mr. Moses, who was superin tending the operation, had a narrow escape of death. It was stated at an inquest held before the Bristol coroner on the body of Hobbs that the shears had been made about six years ago, of the very best materials which could be procured for the purpose. They had frequently raised much greater weights, and even within the last three weeks had been used to lift engines of sixteen and eighteen tons weight. They had never shown any symptom of flaw or weak ness, and had been considered fully equal to the weight sus pended from them. The jury returned • verdict of " Acci dental death." The deceased, whe bore al excellent character, was a married man with three children. DORCHESTER, WRTMOUTH, AND CREME DISTRICT ASSOCIAT/ON FOR VII IMPROVEMENT OF TR, CONDITION or ?RE LABOURING Ccassrs.—The first annual meeting of this association, which took place on Wednesday, at the County-hall, Dorchester, was attended by a considerable number of the clergy, gentry, and others, who take an inte rest in the welfare of the labouring classes. There was a very good exhibition of vegetables, consisting of potatoes, carrots, parsnips, beans, onions, cabbages, and mangold wurtwel, which showed that much care had been taken in their culti vation. Upon the whole the display was very creditable to the cottages, and satisfactory to those who patronised them. A number of premiums to labourers—for the superior ealti• vation of allotments of land—for the cleanliness and neatness of the interiors of their cottages—for length of service to an employer--for the superior education of their children, &c., were award..d. BERWICK-UPON-TWEED. SEVERAL RIOTA took place in Berwick during the early part of lest week, between the labourers employed on the Berwick and Kelso Railway on one side, and a somber of fishermen and workmen belonging to the town on the ether. The disturbance first arose at Tweedmouth, in consequence, as it is alleged, of a portion of the wages of the "navvies" being withheld by the sub-contractor, Mr. Skelsey, contrary to agreement made at the beginning of the harvest. While Mr. fikelsey was paying the men, in Forster's public-hew', at the High Gate, some of them, who were dissatisfied with the wages they had received, pushed in the window of the room in which Mr. Skelsey was paying the men, seized the money which was lying upon the table, to the amount of 1101., in silver and gold, knocked him down, and kicked and beat bins, and would certainly have despatched him, had not some of the others, more humane than the rest, succeeded in getting hint out of the room and con veying him across the road to the office of Mr. Morris. The men followed, and threatened to pull the premises down. Nearly 801. was thus distributed; but many of the men were not satiefied, and broke the windows, besides com mitting other mischief. The tumult was ultimately quelled by the arrival of a number of the men under Mr. Moms, who succeeded in expelling those who remained in the yard. Only one of the rioters has as yet been apprehended; but it is expected that several of them will be discovered. One of the men, named Patrick Cavanagh, died on Wednesday morning from an injury received on the head. On Sunday morning the riot broke out in the town. How it originated has not been discovered; but between one and two o'clock the streets were nearly filled. The windows of a lodging house for navvies in Wallace's-green were smashed, and 'the furniture brought out to the street and completely destroyed. The windows and furniture of two houses in Chapel-street were also destroyed in a similar manner. Daring all these proceedings the police were of little avail. Mr Preudfoot, chief officer, received a blow on the head from a hoe, the wound extending from the temple to the lower part of the face, and he had, in consequence, to be conveyed home. In the course of the fight, which was not confined to one street, but spread through Chapel-street, Walkergate-lane, Church-street, the High•stmet, and Golden-square, even knives were used, and a fisherman sus tained a flesh wound of three and a half inches deep in the left side. From the absolute want of an efficient quelling force not a single individual was taken into custody. The men have sines continued quiet, though for several days they did not return to their work. A company of the 76th Regiment have since arrived, and it is hoped that their pre sence will prove an effectual check, should further riots be contemplated. Sint faits. OPENING OF THE SUFFOLK-STREET SCHOOL.— Thenewly incorporated Societyof British Artists opened their School of Art feat night, in the great room of the society in Suffolk-street. Mr. Hurlotone, the president, made a short explanatory address, and them Mr. Marion delivered a lecture on anatomy to a large and an attentive audience. On the general principles of anatomy it would be difficult to offer anything that is new, nor did Mr. Marion attempt much more than the plain practical illustrations which lecturers usually deliver on such a subject. At the conclusion of the lecture Mr. Hurlatone informed the meeting that a clan for ladies would be opened next week. At present a charge is made of two guineas for the coarse, but this is only tempo rary, and next year there will be no charge made. the bolus at the Royal Academy are irons eight to ten—at Suffolk-street from seven to nine. Students will be ad mitted to draw from the living model at the age of 20, one year earlier than the period permitted by the academy. It would be idle at present to form any notion of the value of the school : the lectures, at least, can do no harm. THE NATIONAL GALLERY AND TIIE ROYAL ACADEXT.—When the Royal Academy was established, King George 111. (in whose gift all matters of the kind then were) assigned to the members certain apartments in So merset House, and when the National Gallery was erected the government gave one half of the gallery to the trustees, and the other half to the members of the Academy in ex change for their apartments in Somerset House. Now there is a talk of building a national gallery elsewhere, and of ving up the whole of the present gallery to the Royal Academy. There are artists who complain of this; but we think without much reason. The academicians, it is said, are rich enough to build for themselves. and therefore the Royal Academy and not the National Gallery should be sett to the right about. It is evident, however, from the grant of King George 111 , that the Academy cannot be turned out, and that the half of the National Gallery belongs to the Academy by the exchange effected in 1536. The go vernnsent, therefore, however willing, could never fo-ce the Academy into its old George the Third apartments, and what is to be done in the present juncture is a matter of some moment. The royal academicians don't want to move. They claim possession by exchange, and the trustees of the National Gallery must move, because they want room for the recent acquisition of the Vernon gift. In moving elsewhere, the trustee*, it is true, resign " the finest site in Europe," as Sir Robert Peel perhaps ap propriately described it, and lose at the same time the very worst of tie public buildings in the greatest eity in the world. The academicians, on the other hand, obtain a noble site, double room, and the reputation of poescesing an ugly structure, the favourite work of one of its own pet members. But the matter is still unsettled ; the trustees can only recommend to the treasury, and the treasury must come to parliament for the money before the old gallery is sur rendered. or a stone of the new one carted from its quarry. TEE NEW DECORATTONS OY DR CRT-LA NE fIIEA7RE an simple, altlieugh exceedingly effective. The ground of the whole is a faint blossom colour, approaching a white, and the ornaments, which are all appliqu e , are gilt. The fronts of all the boxes are laced with a trellis of large mesh, formed of an enriched moulding gilt, and upon this, festoons of de tached flowers, very nicely modelled, and also gilt, are sus pended. On the dress boxes the festoons are looped through wreaths; on the next tier, tied with a gilt riband, and on the front of the third tier the festoon con sists of riband only. The tinted Corinthian co lumns which form the 'um, two oa each side, have their caps and bases t, ant the flutes entwined by a continuous wreath of flowers gilt, u have also the small column which support the boxes throughout the house. The whole of the ornaments, fruit and flower work, are of papier ealclie,—the ornamented moulding which forms the trellis being of a now patent machine-made kind, and were made, gilt, and fixed, in five weeks, by Mr. Bielefeld. The ceiling is painted to represent the sky seen from a roofless building, and much ingenuity is exhibited in the endeavour. A con tinuation of the gilt trellis work, rising from the walls, forms en inclosure around the lower part of the circle ; and the central glue chandelier, a new one, is made to present, by masses of drops, six flags, with lines of the union.jack marked on each of them by light. lt is kept close up to the ceiling, and is seen to be held by six flying cupids. For colour, en tire dependence is placed on the draperies, in respect of which Mr. Frederick Oye has taken a bold step. Acting probably on the proverbial partiality of the fairer portion of the British public for a red coat, he has adopted nothing more nor less for his draperies than bright scarlet cloth with yellow edging, which must produce a brilliant effect. The boxes are lined with a yellow-patterned paper en a crimson ground. The "family boxes " have been cleared away, so u to form au Massed area for standing spectators.— The Builder. Me Banta. HATNIARKRT.—The , 4 Lady of Lyons" was played here yesterday evening with a cast such nano theatre but the Haymarket can afford. After an abeence of three years, !dim Helen Faucit resumed her old and favourite part of Pauline Deschappelks, and played it with her accustomed grace and pathos. She seemed thinner, but otherwise looked exceedingly well, and in her acting left nothing to be desired. Her reception was most enthusiastic. The new actor, Mr. Creawick, played Claude ifelnolte, and to judge by the applause he received, with full and complete success. In out judgment he is too conventional ever to become a great actor; but he has youth, vigour, anti a good appearance, and with these aide he will no doubt do exceedingly well for such parts as he played yesterday evenirg. The farce of "Twice Killed" intro duced Mr. and Mrs. Keeley to a Haymarket audience. It is almost needless to say that they received a hearty welcome, and that they kept the house in a roar of laughter from the beginning to the end of the piece. The evening concluded with the piece of " The Invisible Prince." PanicEss's.—This pleasant theatre opened for the season yesterday evening, under the direction of Mr. Mad don, when Mr. Macready appeared as Macbeth, supported by His. Cushman. This actress, very able in many cha racters, is by no means the Lady Macbeth of our imaginings, her notion of the part appearing to have much more imme diate connexion with physical than with intellectual power; but still she is the best Lady Macbeth available, and we must welcome her accordingly. Possibly the too melodramatic turn of her impersonation may have been induced, in the progress of rehearsal, by the example of Mr. Maeready, whose Macbeth, we must confess, suggests to us a decided re miniacence of his Rob Roy Macgregor Campbell. Both artists were cordially received. Mr. Cooper, as Macduff, declaimed with his accustomed correctness of elocution. cke's music was performed with tolerable effect ; but excellent and tell ing as it is in itself, we are no ways satisfied as to the pro priety of its introduction. The popular vaudeville " Ladies, beware" followed, and the entertainments concluded with Kenny's pleasant farce " Love, Law, and Physic," a revival deserving of all commendation. Mien Susan Cushman ap pears with bee sister on Thursday, as Romeo and Juliet, and we are promised Anna Thillon early in the season. POLICE : -Y EBTERDAT. MANSION.HOUSE.—AeIIitILT IT A BAILIFF'S FOL , LOWEIL—J. Bray, aged 68, was charged with anaulting the wife of • person es when house he was appointed to keep ponession.—Mr. T. C. Lewis, music -seller, of No. 96, Cheap aide, amid the defendant was left in possession of his pre mises from the Sheriff.' Court, open a judgmeut for 191. odd, and had been in pension three wnks. Since he had been there witness slept out, his wife, two children, and a servant being left on the premises. On Friday morning he could fled no one except the defendant, and his young man and boy in the shop. Hits bedroom was in disorder, and the bed and bedstead were in the middle of the room, the draw er, against the door, and all in conf u sion. He asked the defendant what had transpired during his absence. He answered with such insulting language concerning his wife that he threatened to knock defendant down, and he replied " Oh, lam in possession, and I dare you to do it. I have arms in my possession, and I will use them." He af terwards repeated the offensive words with still more dis gusting additions in the presence of the sheriff 's officer, who ordered him out, end, added the plaintiff, I knocked him down in the shop. He then declared that he would cut my own and my wife's throat.—Mrs. Mary Ann Lewis, wife of the last witness, said : On Friday I went to a friend's house, and returned home at 10 o'clock. I took off my bonnet, end was going up stain, and the defen dent stood between me and the door, and said, "Now you cannot pass without giving me a kiss." He used exceedingly gross and abstain language, and I threw up the window and screamed for the police. He followed me and seized me by the arm and pulled me away, and I ran up stain to my bedroom and put a chest of drawers against the door, and he tried to get in. I was in such a state of agitation I could not go to bed at all, end he remained outside the door. The witness then stated that she felt reluctant to increase her husband's troubles by telling him what had occurred. The defendant, however, continued hie solicitations on another night, regardless of the presence of Mrs. Lewis's sister-in-law, who, teeing an open razor in his hand, threw up the window and called out "murder." The police, however, would not take him into custody uhe was in possession. For the first time then he used expressions against her reputation, and the annoyance became so intolerable thee exposure became in dispensable—Mrs. Hughes stated that she went to sleep with Mrs. Lewis in the absence of that lady's husband, and witnessed the extraordinary nature of the persecution with which the old fool harassed the poor woman.—Bray said the story had gathered a great deal in the telling, and that he had never used any threats, for indeed there was no occa sion for any.—The Lord Mayor said the case was a very aggravated one, for the defendant bad not only taken advan tage of the distressed condition of the family, but was base enough to reflect upon the character of the lady upon being steadily repulsed.—He was committed for trial. Bmtrooeteo.—Three men, named Lambridge, Rake, and Chip, who have been employed on board the Venezuela, steamer, from Ostend, were charged with having on board a quantity of tobacco, on which the duty had not been paid.— C. A. Davie, officer of the customs, stated that in consequence of information which lie had received, he went on board the Venezuela with an officer. In the bow of the vessel they discovered a pack, containing 65 packages of leaf and three packages of manufactured tobacco. When Rake saw them he shook most violently, and upon being asked whether he had got the ague made some confused and unintelligible an swer. Chip, however, talked about a little cold steel for them—lnspector Evans confirmed the account given by the officer. —The prisoners were each of them convicted, and fined in the penalty of 1001. GIIILDHALL.—IsITORTATION OP DISRIRED MIR/NO SHEEP INTO SMITHFIELD MARKET FOR SALR.—Polico cosetable White, 5, requested the advice of Alderman Mus grove under the following eircumstancen:—He stated that, while on duty in Smithfield market that morning, he ob served a number of Merino sheep, which to him were appa rently diseased with the small-pox. He therefore wished to know how he should act with respect to them. As far as his knowledge went he believed the disease to be infectious. —AldermanMusgrove directed the officer to request Mr. Nice, a veterinary surgeon, to examine the sheep, and hare the goodness to come and report as to the nature of the disease, and whether it was infectious—Mr. Nice and the policeman entered, when the former said he had examimed tho sheep, and there were a number of them diseased in the skin, and numerous ruptures under their shoulders, which appeared to him to be of the character of the human small pox. He was not sufficiently experienced in the diseases of sheep to pronounce whether or not it was infectious ; but lie had read of several eases, and the present appearance of the sheep appeared to be of a similar character. It struck him that they had had the disease, as the ulcers were passing oft in the usual manner, and the animals seemed to be en ing on in It very favourable way.—Alderman Mus grave wished to know whether the disease of those in the market was of such a character al to justify him in ordering 'their removal ?—Mr. Niceowould not take upon himself to say.—Alderman Musgrove wished to know if Mr. Nice had twenty sheep, were those now complained of so far well that he would have no objection to letting his own mix with them in the some pen ?—Mr. Nice said he certainly should not like his own to come into contact with them.—White said that above 300, to all appearance similarly diseased, had been turned out of the market, as there was a dull sale. A number had been sold at 16s. each since he first called the alderman's attention to the subject. All those of which he complained had just been purchased by a butcher.—Alder man Musgrove said he could hardly believe they were in a fit state for killing. The officer was to go to the owner, and state what bad transpired at the court, and detain him to remove them. THE GRUEL TN THE WEST LONDON UNION. —J. Pole, age 22, J. Deoine,l9, 0. Dredge, 16, G. (harm, lb, J. Leary,l6, and Dennis Leary, hie brother, who have all been several times in prison, were charged with creating a disturbance in the union.—Prom the statement of Mr. Thompson, the master of the union, and the porter, it ap peared that, in consequence of the refractory conduct of tho prisoners, they were placed in an apartment by themselves. That morning they came down to get their breakfast, which was banded to them through a window in the kitchen. On the gruel and bread being handed to them they flatly refused to take it, saying that the former was not good enough. Potts then leaped through the window, followed by Devine and the others, with the exception of Dennis Leary, when, having taken some bread, they proceeded into the hall and commenced creating • disturbance during the time the other inmates were at prayers. They also took off their blots, and threateaed to break Mr. Thompson's head, at the same time swearing at a great rate. In defence, the prisoners stated that they were confined in • room not fit for a dog, and that the noise occurred through their objecting to the gruel, which they could not breakfast on, nor could any one else.—Ald. Musgrove observed that the course the prisoners pursued war not the proper one. If they had a complaint to make they should discharge them selves, and come before the magistrates, who would soon inquire into their case. Ile wished to know if Mr. Thomp son had any of the gruel in court.—The porter handed up , half • mug full, which appeared of a very dark colour, and to have been made of a very inferior sort of meal.—Ald. Musgrove asked what was the reason it was such a dark colour. It was not a fair sort of gruel.—Mr. Thompson replied because it was cold, having been made some hours. They salted it according to their own taste—Potts said it was the same directly after coming out of the copper.-- Ald. Musgrove asked who supplied the meal, and,if it turned out to be indifferentorhose duty was it to examine and reject it.--Mr. Thompson said it was contracted for by a meet respectable house in Farringdon-street, and the put week was the first one of the new contract. He always examined the meal himself, and had found that it was perfectly agree able to the conditions of the sgreemene.—Ald. Musgrove ob served that the colour of the gruel was objectionable. He bad been in the habit of visiting both Nowpate and Giltspur street prisons, and it was very different there. Ile hail some difficulty in dealing with the prisoners. A distinction should be drawn between persons who wilfully broke windows, and those who caused a disturbance by complaining of the food. The parish authorities had a power of punishing offenders.—Mr. Thompson . said that a only amounted to 12 hours' confine went, during which time they received 18 ounces of breed; and that in fact it was no punishment to such persons as the prisoners. The parochial authorities wanted the protection of the magistrates.—Alderman Musgrove, after lecturing the prisoners en their misconduct, sent Potts and Devine to seven days imprisonment each, and ordered the others back to the workhouse for the master to punish if he thought proper.—After they were removed Alderman Musgrove oh served to Mr. Thompson that be thought some process might be discovered to make better gruel, and to look better, for he felt convinced, however distressed in circumstances he (the , alderman) might be, he did not think be could bring himself to eat it. WORSH IP-STREET.—THE ALLZOED ROBBERY ET A L ADV.—Atm Anne Quin, the wife of a respectable trades man at Poplar, was finally examined, charged with having stolen a gold pearl-mounted ring from the shop of Messrs. Walker and Brown, eilveremiths and jewellers in the White chapel-road. At the former examination Henry Perkins, shopman to the prosecutors, deposed that the prisoner called at their shop on the afternoon of Wednesday last, and re queued to be shown some wedding-rings ; while she was examining some he saw her endeavour to substitute • large brass ring, which she wore upon her finger, for one of the gold ones which had been taken from the card. Having failed in her object, the prisoner requested to look at a card of fancy rings,which she returned to him without purchasing any, and he immediately dimovered that one of them had disappeared. Upon communicating the circumstance to the prisoner, she denied having seen it, and having purchased a summon gold ring for as. 6d., she left the shop, but was over ' taken two doors off, and detained till the arrival of a policeman.—The witness was now severely cross ' examined by Mr. Pelham, on behalf of the defence. but strictly adhered to his original statement, and I nothing at all favourable to the prisoner was elicited, but the fact of her having voluntarily challenged an imoyediate search when brought back to the shop, 6..1 that the missing ring was not found in her possession.—Mr. Pelham assured the magistrate that the character of the prisoner, who was closely connected with a family of effluence and respectabi lity, had never before been in the slightest degree impeached, and after urging the extreme improbability that a person in such a position could be guilty of such a paltry theft, sub mitted, as the most probable solution of the disappearance of the ring, that it had accidentally slipped off the card, and rolled unobserved into the street.—Mr. Hammill said that it was clearly a question for the consideration of a jury, and he had no alternative, in the face of such positive evidence, than to commit the prisoner for trial, but sh•mtld allow the bail she bad already put in to be extended for her future ap pearance. - - - DAHT,O nOIITIEB.Y.—J. Leather, a bang fellow of noto rious character ' WWI charged with haring stol en t wo l ever watches, of the value of 101. from the shop of Mr. Peter Robertson, a watch-maker, in the Kingsland-road. The prosecutor was seated In the parlour at the bark of his shop about mid-day on the sth of August last, when, hearing the sudden smash of glass in the shop-front, he hastened out and saw the prisoner and another man standing outside before a broken pane, through which one of them had inserted his hand, and was in the act of removing two watches off the hooks by which they were suspended. He instantly ran into the street, down which the prisoner and his confederate darted away in different directions, and they had since eluded the vigilance of the police until a few days ago, when the prisoner was Wed to a low lodgi n gn-house in Shoreditch, and taken into eurtody. Neithe he watches; had been recovered, and on *earthing the prisoner, the only article found u pon him was a skeleton key. The prisoner reserved and was fully committed to Newgate for trial. his defense, luinE NWELL.—Caartox or MURDER.—IV. J. Clifton, aged 42, was charged with the wilful murder of Matilda Clifton, his wife, aged 38.—Martin, sergeant, No. 144 0, deposed that the previous morning, about half-past 1 o'clock, he received information that a woman had been M used by her husband, at No. 6, Beacham-street, St. Andrew's, Holborn. He proceeded thither, and heard that the woman was dead. He left a constable at the door of the house, and went to Mr. Pollock, surgeon, of Hatton.garden, and saw his assistant, who said the woman had received a blow and a kick. Witness returned, and went upstairs with the pri. *Deer to the back attic, where he found the deceased lytng on a bed. There was blood on the 'Mire and floor. When in the room with the prisoner witness said, " f must take you into custody for this." The prisoner &aid, " Very well, I am sorry for it • she was drunk at the time, and she aggra vated me." He repeated this at the station-house. — Mr. 8. Caldargh, surgeon and assistant to Mr. Pollock, deposed that he was called upon to attend the de ceased at about half.past two o'clock in the morning. Did not see the person who called, but thought it was the prisoner. He went to the house, and noticed blood on two of the upper stairs. Saw a woman lying on the floor, and another woman by her side. The face of the former was pallid, and she was almost insensible. She said she was ill, and used disgusting language. She said she had been drinking. Witness went into the adjoining room, and found the prisoner sitting on the side of the bed. Asked if he knew the cause of his wife's illness. A little girl, his daughter, said her mother had bees quarrelling with her father. She had been ill for two or three days. She said her father had kicked her mother. The bleeding had begun before he kicked her. The prisoner inquired of witness if be thought it a serious case. Witness replied, " Indeed it is." The prisoner said, " I am sorry for it. She was a dreadful temper." She had quarrelled with him because he would not let her have more liquor. She threw a knife, a shovel, a poker, and tongs, at him. The poker struck him on the nose, and he kicked her. Witness received infor mation that she died at four o'clock in the morning.—Mrs. Margaret Goodwin, a lodger in the same bowie, deposed that the deceased's daughter called her to attend her mother. I Bhe found the prisoner supporting his wife. She was sitting on the floor. Saw blood before she entered the room. De ceased was insensible. There was blood near the room door. The prisoner requested her to go and fetch a medical gen tleman. She told him to go himself, and he did so imme diately.—By Mr. Tyrwhatt There was not less than a quart of blood. Asked the prisoner how it happened. He said they had been quarrelling. She had drunk a quartem of gin off at a dranzht, and half a pint of beer. The pri soner supported his wife whilst witness administered the medicine. The deceased was a quarrelsome woman when sober. On Saturday night, at twelve o'clock, heard them quarrelling, Dining the absence of the doctor the deceased said she was very ill, and desired her to raise her up. She said nothing how it happened in the presence of the pri soner.—T. Human, a lodger in the house, heard the screams of the prisoner's daughter about two o'clock in the morning, and cries of "Oh, come to my mother." It was not unusual to hear them quarrelling. He confirmed the above testimony.—Elizaheth Clifton, the prisoner's daughter, aged twelve, said that her mother came home with her father about ten o'clock. She slept in the front room, and her parents in the back room. She was asleep when they returned home, and they awoke I her. They were kind to one another at first, and then they began to quarrel. Her mother began the quarrel, and it continued for some time, when she called her father a very bad name. They were sitting at the table at supper. There was a quartern cf gin and a pint of porter on the table. Her mother drank the gin and the beer. Her father was sitting still before this. She then called him bad names, and threw a table-knife at him, and then hit him with a shovel. I lie was going away, and not going to strike her, when her I mother would not let him go. About six o'clock the same evening her mother told her she should not live till the morning, and gave her a piece of black ribbon to wear es mourning for her. Her father kicked her mother alter having been called the names, and the blood came on the top of the stairs. Her back was towards him at the time. She was running out of the way when he kicked her. Her mother cried nut immediately after her father kicked her. She did not fall after the kick. When she cried oat her (ether put his arm round her neck and supported her into the room, and the bleeding commenced. Her father cried at the time, and said he had no wish to do it. He said, " How foolish you w.re to suffer me to kick you ; I did not wish to de it, but you are such a bad temper."—The pri soner, who was much affected, said nothing, and he was remanded. WESTMINSTER.—Onsince Rerriateisse.—F. Death, conductor of a Chelsea omnibus, badge 1115, appeared to answer two complaints exhibited against him by Mr. T. C. Anstey, a banister, 11, New-square, Lincoln'teian, for using insulting language and behaviour, and for neglecting towers, his :nudge conspicuously.—Mr. Ansteyeald that on the even ing of September 19 he entered defendant's omnibus at the Regenteeircus, when he found an elderly gentleman, who appeared to be in a very delicate state of health, complaining to the conductor that a person was smoking in the omnibus. Defendant declined to Interfere, when Mr. Anstey, finding that the gentleman, who he afterwards learned was a major in the army, experienced great annoyance from the fumes of the tobacco, he also joined him in entreating the conductor to put a stop to the annoy ante, which he refused to do. The major then re quested the offending party to desist, but he only leaned forward nearer the major's face, and smoked the more, upon which Mr. Anstey told the defen dant that he was doing very wrong in not interfering, informed him that he was a banister, and that he should take proceedings against him if he did not insist upon the smoking being discontinued. Defendant having told the smoker to desist, that person immediately did so, but com menced • volley of abuse upon Mr. Anstey. The latter affected not to hear him, but the fellow come closer and closer to him until he almost jammed him up sgainst the door of the carriage, making most offensive allusions to the profession of which Mr. Anstey had declared himself to be a member. Defendant then put his head into the carriage and joined the other in his abuse of barristers. This was continued until the end of the journey, when Mr. Amity asked defendant for his number ' several times, but he refused to produce it. He subsequently took it out of his pocket or from under his clothing.—After some further evidence, Mr. Broderip observed that he could not, con , eistently with the evidence, convict on the first summons, 'that of using insulting language and behaviour.— The second case having been gone into, and supported in every particular by Mr. Robinson, Mr. Broderip asked the defendant what he had to say ?—Defendant, in a loud inso lent tone, asseverated that his badge was on his button, as it then hung, on the centre of his breast, and tbat both gentle men knew it was—Mr. Broderip observed that if any proof were wanting of his general behaviour, it was to be found in the tone and manner in which he had conducted himself before him. He had found it difficult to convict on the first ease, feeling that, if there was any matter of doubt, he, an a magistrate, was bound to give it in favour of the accused. In I the second case he should inflict the full penalty of 40s. and costs, or one month's imprisonment; and, if defendant were ever again brought before him, and his misconduct proved, he would treat him with the greatest severity of the law. — Defendant was locked up. LAMBETH.—CIiARGE or FRAIID.—Me. A. Argles, a person of respectable appearance., who described himself as a law stationer, was charged with defrauding Mr.W. Johnson, • plumber and glazier, residing in Robert-street, Blooms bury, out of 751.—Mr. Johnson stated that some time ago the prisoner had applied to him to purchase the reversionary interest in some funded property, which should revert to him on the death of his mother, who had a life interest in it. He stated that Mr. Thomas Atkins, a gentleman residing at Weymouth, was the executor, and that ho would give the most satisfactory assurances that the property should be his at the death of his mother. A letter was in consequence forwarded to Weymouth, addressed to Mr. Atkins, and to that a most satisfactory answer had been received, and the 751. was at once given to him. Since that time, however, he, Mr. Johnson, had discovered that Mr. Atkins, the executor to the property, did not live at Weymouth, and he had no doubt that the letter forwarded there to him had fallen into the hands of the prisoner, and that the lat ter had himself written the answer to it. He, witness, had also ascertained by a communication with Mr. Atkins, that the prisoner had disposed of his interest in the property before he had applied to him, so that he sold it twice.—A solicitor, on the part of the complainant, produced • letter, which purported to have been written by Mr. Atkins in reply to one forwarded to him, arid said he had no doubt it was in the prisoner's handwriting. He also said he would be able to rove by the testimony of a witness present that the letter before mentioned, and which had been forwarded to Mr. Atkin., was seen in the prisoner'. possession. Under these circumstances he applied for a remand.—Mr. Games, on be half of the prisoner, requested to know what the precise na ture of the charge against his client was ? and tha solicitor on the other side replied that the charge was one of fraud, in receiving 741. from Mr. Johnson under false pretences.—Mr. Games said that there were witnesses in court who knew the prisoner's handwriting, and who would disprove the state ment made that the note received by the complainant's soli citor, in reply to one written by him to Mr. Atkins, was written by Argles, the prisoner. —Two persona in court, to whom the note was shown, elbowed that it was not in the prisoner's handwriting; and Mr. Games submitted that there was no evidence before the court to justify the pri soner's detention.—Mr. Elliott admitted that such was the case, and the prisoner was discharged from this offence. He was, however, charged with obtaining 21. on account of a person and not acknowledging it; but as the eomplainant had given him authority to nceive the money, the case be came ono of civil and not criminal character. DIMIONDCVTDIANCOND.—Meey Far was fiaallyezianined, charged with stealing from Lydia Hart, • gipey, four silver sauce ladles, four dessert spoons, one silver teapot stand, and one gravy spoon, of the value of 201.—0 n the 14th of May last, the pnsoner, who had been left in care of the property, absconded with it, and Hart, the alleged owner, on calling at the station-house to give information of the robbery, was taken into custody herself, and was committed from this court for three months to Brixton, for defrauding • servant of various articles of wearing apparel under pretence of toll. tog her her fortune. The prisoner remained at large until the evening of Saturday week, wLen she was taken into custody by Quinine:, 20 P, who met her in the Walworth road, and she was remanded for the attendance of the pro secutrix.—Quinner informed Mr. Elliott that he had made every effort to find out Mrs. Hart, but could not succeed. He bad, however, seen some members of the gipsy tribe, and they all informed him that it was not her intention to curie forward, fearing that several charges would be made against herself. The officer added, that she (Mrs. Hart) was quite right in that particular, as there were persona in attendance to make charges against her if she had shown herself at the court —The prisoner was discharged, and Quinner was told to keep a sharp look.eut for the gipsy. THAMES.—EXTEMPITE Bstroommo.—S. Cuzzi, the captain of the Greek ship Belle Esperanza, from Malta, and laden with barley, was charged on a Custom-house informa tion with being concerned with N. Stonat, the chief mate (already convicted), in unshipping 15016 a. of foreign manu factured cigars on the 18th ult., in the Downs —The consul of Greece attended to watch the case on the part of the pri. loser. A full report of the transaction appeared in our paper of Friday last, and the evidence given by two seamen named G. Suarovitch and F. Kovanovich was repeated, with the addition that when Stonat, the mate, was bargaining for the sale of the cigars with two men in the cabin, the captain was present. Four men came alongside in a boat at four o'clock In the afternoon, again at six, and lastly at nine o'clock, and took cigars away each time; the mate receiving payment for them. It was stated by the first witness that the boxes of cigars were put into a bag whole on one occasion, and not broken, and Mr. Mohler pointed out thediacrepancy between his evidence on this occasion and what he said on Thursday last, when he swore the boxes were broken up each time before the cigars were put into the sacks. He called upon Mr. Beverly to give up the cage after such a variation in the evidence. Mr. Beverly refused to do so, and Mr. Yardley saidthe three transactions were not an distinctly pointed out last week as they had been that day, nor was tha former interpreter so clear in his translation, and was liable besides to centinual interruptions from another interpreter. Tomaso Casinguens, the pilot of the vessel from Malta, was called to prove that the vessel was in the Downs from the 17th to the 19th of September, and it was also elicited from him that 11 sacks of cigars were placed under the official seal by a revenue officer at Falmouth, and that they were afterwards broken into. He believed the quantity of cigars put under seal was one hundred boxes, contain ing one hundred and fifty each.—This witness was examined at great length, and he appeared unwilling to say much about the transaction, lest be might criminate himself. His testimony, however, threw considerable doubt on the statements of the two seamen.—R. Gray, a Custom-house officer, rummaged the vessel on the 24th ult., and found only 6,300 cigars' on board.—Mr. Yardley said there was a deficiency of 5,700 cigars unaccounted for, taking the pilot's view of the case, which he should do; but if the Custom house officer's report was taken, the deficiency would be 12,700. He convicted the defendant, and sentenced him to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. MONEY MARKET. MONDAY EVENING. We have unfortunately more sinister events in the commercial world to record to-day. The highly re spectable house of Thomas, Son, and Lefevre, largely , engaged in the Jersey and Baltic trade, found it necessary to suspend their payments. It is asserted that the assets will be found more than ample to fulfil all engagements. One of the partners of the firm is said to be closely connected by relationship with parties holding distinguished political offices. A stoppage which created more sensation still was that of Messrs. Rougemont, Brothers, one of the oldest and moat respected firms in the City. They were both merchants and continental bankers. In the latter capacity they acted as the agents and cor respondents of the Bank of Flanders, or of Belgium, for the reports vary, and it is stated that they stop payment with good assets, equal to the pay ment of 60s. in the pound. The bankers of, the house, with a balance of many thousands in hand, are said to have been quite taken by surprise at the notice served upon them to make no more payments on account of the concern. The determination to sus pend is stated to have been resolved upon, not in consequence of any present pressure of claims, but in view of obligations maturing prospectively, which it VMS ascertained or felt it would be impossible to satisfy under actual circumstances, and the rigour of which seemed little susceptible of mitigation for some time to come. Under the influence of such impres sions, and with such convictions, the partners of this house of ancient and honourable name came to the resolution of suspending the course of their business as a matter of equal fairness and justice towards all to whom they were indebted. So highly esteemed was this house, an long rooted in the commerce of this metropolis, that among the many and important commercial casualties which have latterly taken place, it may be safely asserted that not one has occasioned more concern, or has been more sincerely lamented, than the misfortune which has overtaken the estimable members of this long established firm. Some other failures were loosely reported to-dny, and among them that of a respectable firm which, we are enabled to say, upon the best authority, was ' entirely without foundation. The firm in question, whom it is not necessary to designate, and whose fair' name might be injuriously reflected upon by the men tion of a rumour so vague and unfounded, has given notice that they are ready to pay all demands upon them at prompt; that is, to discount their own accep+ances. In such times as these, rumours run riot, and houses of undoubted standing are or may be placed in the utmost peril from what may chance, and does chance in many instances, to be the incon siderate tattle of the day. Oar Liverpool correspondent's report mentions a failure in the iron trade—that of Vincent Higgins and Son—for 100,0001. Higgins, Brothers, sons of the head of the above house, ceased payment a few weeks since. In other respects, the news from Liver pool is cheering. Maury has resumed payment In all probability this house—like that of Rougemoat and Co.—stopped as a precautionary measure, rather than as one of necessity, against such additional pressure as might have arrived from India, in the trade of which it is largely interested. Tho mail, perhaps, brought such favourable advices as showed that the precaution, though, in the present condition of things, wise, need not have been taken, and hence the resumption of payments. As regards T. and H. Murray, the report now runs that they will not wind up, but resume business in a day or two. Reports to-day have circulated about intentions of the government, in concert with the Bank, to make an issue of one pound notes. We place no faith in the rumour, though government is expected do some thing. The Three per Cent. Consols have been done to-day as ' low as 831, with the singularity that the sellers at that price have bought back fur the account on the 14th at 841 and above, thus establishing a contango for 12 days only of 1 per cent, and more !

Although the amount of business done in the share market yesterday wm limited, still, in some quarters, a better feeling prevailed, and in a variety of the low priced speculative issues, bargains were concluded at prices in advance of those quoted on Saturday.
