torbanee that Miss Pottle threatened to send for the police. During the mufile her inistreses thumb was sprained by the defendant. When the landlady threatened to call in the police, the defendant went away, and he canoe to the house again. A number of letters were then pot in, which had been written by the defendant to Elisabeth Aefurd during the period of the intercourse. They were all without date, and were merely signed 11. The contents were unimportant as regarded the issue in dispute, but soma portions of them created a good deal of amusement. In all the letters he ad dressed the lady as thy d Luny. In one of the letters the defendant requested the lady not to write again to Devonshire-place, and entreated her to keep her own counsel, and he said that if she did, every thing yet would " turn up trumps." In another letter he promised to send her 21, and so she appeared to have intimated to him previously that the butcher she was dealing with had not yet objected to con tinue giving credit, he ad•ised her to order another large joint upon the strength of it. ss they did not know when he might change his mind. lie likewise said that she could not be aware of Vat- price of feeding bottles for children, of she would not have asked him to get ode, and he added that summon soda-water bottle was the very best thing hif the purpose, with a piece of leather put over the neck far the chill to sock through. In a third letter the defendant told the lady he lied just' received her second "dear" letter, and wished her to come'' to him at Gravesend, with directions how she could do so in a meaner to escape observation. He then went on to say that he had hired a cot for the baby, for which he was to pay half-a-crown a week. Ile then informed her that the son of his landlady had been very ill the day be fore, in consequence of his having eaten two raw carrots, and he had administered calomel to him, and also • tre mendous dose of castor oil, which had made him all right. He likewise in this letter entreated her not to forget the pots and kettles. In • fourth letter the defendant, after eapressiog his sor row at being absent from his d love, concluded thus: lam in very low spirits, and am truly wretched. I have no cigars. The next two letters were those which were most relied on in support of the pheintirs case. At the time they were written the lady, it appeared, was residing at Cirencester, at an inn, and was evidently in want of mosey. The de fendant, who was in London, wrote to her, stating that he had been about all the morning to try to get two pounds to send her, but bad been unsuccessful. His family would do nothing for him, and he himself was penniless. Under these circumstances he advised her to call upon a respectable soli citor, whom he named, and advised has to miplain to him how they were situated, and ask him to write to his mother; and he said if this were done the fear of exposure would induce them to give him some money. He advised her to act as though it was of her own accord, and not sy a word about his having advised her, and he said if she did eo everything would turnout right. Ile afterwards wrote • seeoad letter, in which he advised the lady to apply to the gentleman he had mentioned before in his capacity of clerk to the magi,- trans, and ask for a summons against him for deserting her, and he told her to appear hostile to him and say that she was eseapilled to take this step on account of her being in • destitute condition. This he sold would compel his family to do them justice. In another letter the defendant told the lady he bad been to St. Albans, and that a person there was going to intro duce his t a fool wdo would give him one hundred pounds for his acceptance for a thousand, and he was going to give half the money to the person who was the means of his getting the money, and when he obtained the balance, he said he would "rig out his deary" in the style she deserved. He went on to say that he was disgusted with this country, and had serious thoughts of going abroad and taking her with him. In another letter the defendant, having heard that the lady was ill, wrote to Inform her that a doctor lived opposite the inn where she wee staying, to wham he advised her to apply immediately, as he said he was a Ter, good man, and what was better " would stand steroid credit."

Lord Haatingtower maid pledge his oath that nothing like a ceremony of marriage hod ever took place between him and the female I. emsedoo, and certainly if be was net speaking the truth, his sonhat had bean each as would disgrace him for ever is the eyes of the world. Since his intercourse with Elizabeth Acford had ceased he had married the daughter of en hemourable baronet of family and rank asuly to his own , by whom be had igen*, sod the jury would consider whether it ow likely he would have dared to take such a step if there had been any foundation for the amnion of a previous marriage. The learned serjeant thea referred to the nature of the claim, and said that although he did not desire to cast any imputation upon the plaintiff, he could not help calling to the attention of the jury the fact that in 1849, when the application for relief was find mad* to him and inquiries instituted upon the subject, he was dis tinctly told that Lord Hnstingtower denied is the most din tient terms that the lady in question had say claim upon him as hie wife, and yet alter this be shoes to take her and her children into his house ; sad he had nobody to thank for the expense he had incurred but himself. The only effect of this proceeding was to endeavour to extort money unfairly and improperly from the pocket of Lord Hunting tower ; and he considered, therefore, that the plaintiff was disontitled to that consideration which otherwise, on the score of humanity, he would have deserved at their bands. The only question in the cause, however, was whether it had been made out to the satisfaction of the jury that any marriage ceremony had been performed in Scotland ; and he submitted to them that than was not a single tittle of evidence to make oat that fact. He was not prepared to justify the conduct of Lord Huntingtower up to the time when he came forward and avowed his shame, and declared to :be world that the lady whom he bad permitted to use his same for so long was not his wife but his concubine. If he had se duced her, he was bound by every tie of religion and duty to provide for her, but he was hot booed to make her his wife, end there was nothing whatever is the ease to show that he ever hod such an isolation. Lord Hantingtower was • man evidently not poeseesed of very much sense-he had so doubt said and written many foolish things, bat he challenged the jury to pick est any portion of the *videos* which would show anything like an admiosioa am his part that he had been married to this Weella.

After an impressive addreu from his lordship on the enormity of the crime of which he had hetet found guilty he was sentenced to one year's imprisonment, wit's hard lahner. _ The learned Judge then disposed of those eases which had only stood over for sentasee, and the proceedings of the assizes terminated. WILLIAMS V. MIRCWITSSIL-TMII LAMM BALL•MODY iiAc - is AT 4i—ssais-T-wii;: This ease came on for trial at the late mains for Cardigan ►hire. It will be remembered that the quarrel arose at a ball, when Mr. Mereirmher having struck Mr. Williams. that gentleman's face was found bleeding profusely, as if from a cut, and Mr. Merewether was held to bail Gr felo niously cutting and wounding. The grand jury however ignored the bill char t ring Henry Mt rewether with assault ing Edelman. Richard Williams, at Aberystwith, on the 7th of January, with intent, dtc., but found a true bill against him furs common assault. Mr. Grove succinctly stated this facts of the ease, and called witnesses to substantiate them ; after which Mr. Evans addressed the jury for the defendant in a powerful speech. He admitted the assault, and argued that there was provocation to it, and that it was not committed with a sharp instrument. 11. then called Mrs. R. Careswell, and amongst other witnesses, Dr. Bell, who deposed—l am a physician, and took my degrees in 1840. Before that period I was an apothecary. I have been a lecturer on anatomy at the Leeds medical school. A straight blow on the nose will produce an incised wound such as Mr. Williams is de scribed to have received, especially if the head was against the well. The processes are aharp, as may be seen from this skull. [The witness here produced a skull.) Suck • wound would cause a copious flow or blood; such a wound might be taken for one cut with a sharp instrument. I have known a case where the orbit, which is not so sharp es the nose, produced an incised wound, which it was supposed had been inflicted with a sharp instrument. The wound I refer to caused the death of the man. A wound in the nose, produced as I have described, might permit the passage of a probe. (In proof of what the witness asserted he produced a 'lumber of models of the nose). The learned Judge said that if Mr. Grove wished to reply to Mr. Evans he could do so in the morning. It wee • question purely for his decision. He then directed the jury to find a verdict for the plaintiff, and the costa adjourned. On Thursday morning Mr. Grove addressed the court in aggravation of the case. His lordship then passed sentence upon the defendant, which was, that he ba fined 19L, and enter Into his own recognisant* to keep the peace for twelve months, end find two sureties in 2001., and that he be imprisoned until the flue be paid. The fine was immediately paid, and defendant's father entered into the required security. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—LivutpooL, MAWR 28. Clown Cover.—Basesa Ila.

LATHAN SION AT BOLTON. Mr Knowles, Mr. Addison, and Mr. Fowler, appeared for the plsintiffs; and Mr. &dead Wilkins, with Mr. Cowling and Mr. Cross, for the defendant. The plaintiffs are ble achers at, Great Leven, near Bol ton ; sad the defendant is a boiler maker at Bolton. In the year 1861, the defendant contracted with the plain tiffs to supply them with a circular steam boiler of certain dimensions, formed of fire plates three-eighths of an inch thick, and capable of bearing a praiser* of 601 W. to the square inch. The price was to be 14s. per cwt., with five per cent. discount for cub. The boiler was delivered os the Ist of January, 1852, and shortly after it was set to work the steam escaped from the rivet-holes, and to this eir mesdames the attention of the defendant was directed. He stated that as the boiler continued in use this defect would disappear. Accordingly the plaintiffs continued to work the boiler at a pressured from 4010 s. to 60165. per inch until the month of September, when they added some new assehlarry, but the pre ze on the baler sever exceeded 68Th.. per square lack, whoa suddenly a tremendous e n z*os took place. The buildings in the neighbourhood were blown to a miss of rains, wi the work-people who were at work, and a fear ful loos of life was the cossequence. Upon an examine tioa of the [mutest* of the boiler after the explosion, it was head that the boiler was defective in every respect. The rivet Mies were not circular or in their proper places. Them moo so peeper and in fact the boiler was in a mad t state. It turned out that the dell a = usl ar oder MOM the boiler before he sent it to the pielmlie Tbe esoommeues of the explosion was that the be bed t. be rebuilt, the steam-engine repaired, and the ommeat paid by the plegaff for repairs was 3,116/. The /eat whew enigma' wet the plaintiff, Mr. lames Catterill, who seated the pelselpal facts of the case. The deheitat wm examined at the inquest, and he admitted that be bad never tested the boiler, although it was his usual is do so. Oa mossemenination by Mr. Sere bast WINED, the witness stated that the @ague was a engine d was of about 20-horse power. te bl eais misi tr sa mite-valve wee fixed by his own millwright. It had boss bought at Reddish mills near Stockport, and was five *aches in diameter. There was no stuffing about the valve. At the inquest he stated that he had seen the pres sure ea the boiler at 60 lbs., and that until the explosion he hod never seen anything particularly wrong about the honer. Ilemaid Taylor, the engineer, was next called. He stated thee be had MSS umployed 16 years at the plaintiff's works.

He tbs.* It talle mft to leave the boiler for a few minutes at that mime. The OPlotion took place whilst he was in the angle Mw. A few minutes before he had bees on the boiler and examined the safety valve to see that it was all right, and It was working properly. It was his habit to do so every half-hour. He had worked at a colliery engine before he went to the plaintiffs. It was not usual to have two safety valves. The steam escaped from the rivet holes ever mime the boiler wee used. The defendant came once to the place after the boiler was set to work, but witness made no complaint. He was not told that morning that the engine wood not work. It only worked one Wender machine at a time. The boiler was only pierced for one safety valve when it was brought from the defendaist's works. John Taylor, the fireman, said he was in the gas house when the explosion took place. He had left the fire-place three or four minutes previously. Before he left he exa mined the different guava, and found that the pressure was 6111 be. by the indicator. The water was nine inches above the floes. Orme-examined—The usual pressure varied from 301bs. to 401 be., and the steam blew off according as the steam 'sage was fixed. Samuel Taylor re-called—l had altered the weight on the lever about a week before. We had got a fresh guage from the defendant a short time before. James Taylor—When the boiler was at Whs. to 401bs. the steam dad not blow off, but I have seen it do so at 461 be. When I saw it that morning, ten minutes before it blew off, the pressure was 61ilbs. I had been heaping coals on the fire. A man named Luke Hodson bad just brought a fresh load, and Samuel Taylor sent me away to the gas-house to change the gas retorts. I had never seen the steam higher than 6141 be. I had not been told to get it up so high, but I did so because we bad a new machine to work. Mr. lames Naamyth, of Bridgwater Foundry at Petri croft, was the next witness. He said he was an engineer, and had been in business twenty years. During that time he had made many boilers. It was usual to have a steam gauge in frost of boilers of the circular description, and this would show the height of water in the boiler. There was also a water-that made of stone, for the purpose of Indicating the height of water likewise. The witness here described the nature and offices of the various valves. If the steam was blowing off at 601 g the pressure on the boiler would not afterwards increase, provided the area of the valve was sufficient to permit the surplus steam to escape. He was called in after the accident to look at the remains of the boiler. The area of the valve was large enough to let of the steam at the pressure indi cated, although net so large as he would have recom mended. If the flues had been red at the top, this would have been an indication of the want of water, and so also would the burning off of soot from the flues. The flues were rot red, and therefore his impression was that there was an ample supply of water. The splashing of water and mud on the premises, and the chimney of the engine-house, also indicated that there had been an ample supply of water. His attention had been particu larly drawn to the rivets and stays. The fist ends of circular boilers were the weakest. The boiler was not stayed in the most desirable manner. It was defectiie in principle. The workmanship of the riveting was defective, for the rivets, and holes did net coincide with oath ether. There were several instances in which the hogs had been double punched, and this was occasioned by canine workmanship ' • end the consequence was that the rivets would not fit, an there would not be a proper rigid resistance to the pressure of steam. The result would be a ixostant working backward and forward of the angle iron. The rivet holm in the stays were the same as the ethers, and, ben whet be saw of the remains of the boiler, the same de of work pervaded the whole. The double holes Ma a 11411killf attempt to make the rivet holes correspond. la di glees the rivet holes are slanting instead of being ins alt *meths.

Lord Huntisgtowsr was then celled as a witnen—He said, lam the defendant in this action. lam married, and there is issue by the marriage. 1 was married is September. 18-51, is CathenneCantilla Elisabeth Burke, the daughter of Sir Joseph Burke. I am now 32 rears old. lu 1843 my mother, Lady Dysart, lived at Bath, and 1 took a cottage about two miles from Bath. I engaged Elisabeth Acton! and her sister as my servants, the former as cook and the latter as parlour-maid and hoommaid. They came to live with me as my servants in December, 1813, and soon afterwards an improper intercourse took place between me and Elizabeth Acford. I left Bath in 1844, and went to the Bridge-house Hotel in London. The reason I left that neighbourhood was because I uaderstood that writs ef execution against me were in the hands of the sheriff of Somersetabire. I sent for Elisabeth Alford, and she joked me in London, and we afterwards went together to a near ber of different plasm I assumed the name of M'lsfsghten, and she passed as my wife. I think it was in June, 1844, that I went to Edinburgh. I went there to get out of the way of the sheriffs' officers, and I did s• by the advice of sly selicitor, to avoid being imprisoned for debt. I took a Zdrnear Edinburgh, and I sent for Elizabeth Asford, she came to me by the steam-boat, and we lived to. getter in the cottage fur about three or four weeks. It was my object to have a residence openly situated so that I could see every one who approached, as I was a afraid of the sheriffs' officers, and the outer gates were locked, and I always kept the keys. Elisabeth Acfonl was not called by any name while we lived at this cottage. I don't know that the was called by any name, and certainly not by that of Mrs. Tollemache. She aecempeoted me eine or twice for • ...in •• • nooday, which was the only day I could go out without fear of arrest. I never introduced her to any one in Scotland as my wife, and I swear I was never mar• ried to her in Scotland or anywhere else. All the time she was with me I was in considerable difficultiee, and I believe that by the letters I wrote to her I war the first to put it ban her head to set up the claim to be Lady Hantingtower. agem-eassained—l warnbo ia 1820, sad is 1842 I was a bmdurept.

I don't recollect if I. wrote to her to join me Beetland, but very probably I did. Before we went to ffilledeed she went by my name and she did the tame after wftdet I went by the name of Tollemache in Scotland, bet I ism% know what name she went by. My man ser mat knew that we were not married. She used to take her meals at the same table with me, and the servants called her " Ma'am." I have spoken of her as Mrs. Tel lemache, but never as my wife. The mama was, that she was not my wife. I could n have obtained any re spectable apartments if she had not pawed as my wife. The reason I left Scotland was, became I was informed that at the snit of the Crown, a sheriff's officer was justi fied in breaking an outer do or, and the moment I heard of it I bolted, and spent all use miserable day on the side of Holyrood Hill, and then Masted for England. I remember burning letters on several occasions, and it is very probable that on some occasions Elizabeth Asked cried. On the day the sculls teak place in /Genuine's lane, I went to see her and observed her in the set ef pet ting two letters in her pocket, and as I reemmind the haadwritimi of the address and knew from where they came, I instated upon having them, and took the letters away from her by force. I don't know thit I bast her when I did so. The letters I took from her are is seers. I wanted afterwards tops into her reosa to me if them was any thing there belenrng to sas she prevailed me from doing so.

There is att doubt that all she wants is money. I have not given her any since she set sip the claim to be my wife.

Lord Huntingtower—l never said anything of the sort. It is a lie. Cromesamination continued—l have so recollection of saying that if the lady had her rights, else would have a title too. Mr. Bramwell—l Wier, you had a very strong feeling for this lady ? Lord liantinetower—Yes, I certainly had Mr. Bramwell—Why did you give her up ? Lord Huatingtower—ls this q•estioa relevant?

If there was even any doubt upon the subject, he was sure, on so very serious a case, they would not jump to the conclusion that a marriage had taken place, but that they would give the defendant the benefit of that doubt. If the question had been one of a marriage in England he should have stopped the case hours before ' bat in Scotland, and he could not help looking upon it as • disgrace to the law of that country, almost any proceeding amounted to a cos triter of marriage. The parties might almost cure over a broonisEck, or if the man said be took tie woman for ei wife, and she said she took him foe • husband, it Shea sat& dent, and hence the difficulty in the present case and they were called upon to say whither a cum:74 some kind or other, amounting to a marriage, had not taken place between the parties. If such a miserable con tract of marriage, however, ins set up, surely there ought to be some evidence of w hat did really take plus at the time, and the hearsay statements of persons made several years afterwards ought not to be taken as proof of such a marriage having taken place. Surely each evidence as this would not be sufficient for reasonable men, particularly when the very se rious oensequenoes that must result from an adverse deal . slots were taken into consideration. There was also this fact, which appeared to him to beery Important. If marriage of any kind did really take Ora, the woman in question mum be well aware of all the circumstances, and the precise time when it weaned, end yet not a single question had been 'eked upon the subject. The learned Judge proceeded to say . that the jury were not required to decide that no marriage did take place, but it would be sufficient for them to say that the evidence at present be fore them did not make out the fact of the marriage, and in that ground the plaintiff had failed to prove his ease. The jury here interpseed, and said this we the view they took of the matter. They did sot desire to give any opinion with regard to the fact whether the marriage in Scotland did take place or sot, but they were of opinion that the evidence now before them did not establish the marriage to their satisfaction. Mr. Baron Alderson said the jury bad come to a very proper conclusion, and, upon that finding, the present ver dict would be for the defendant. Tim cue concluded the business on the Hose Circuit.

MARCH 24. all respects defective In workmanship, end if it had been properly constructed the materials would have been ma. cient to bear a straiu of 100th.. Teatiegn boiler was s very Crow-examiued by Serjeant Wilkins—l have been in the habit of making boilers for fourteen years, and always adopt longitudinal stays. One of our hollers once burst Isom collapse. The stays in that boiler were longitudinal. Mr. Fairbairn uses broad plates for the pupae of staying boiler*. I consider every instance of departure from a direct line of tie deficient. I stated befere the coroner that the security would he enhanced by having more than one safety valve. I also stated that the stuff. ng boa of the safety valve was deficient. It there had been any obstruction to the closing of the valve Cie steam could not escape. This is the same descrip tion of valve that is used in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred. The indicator gave a pressure of sllbs. If tho steam blew off at 45, and is ten minutes It was 611, and in three minutes it was 64, it would show that the safety valve was not sufficient to allow the steam to escape as fast as it well generated. Such valves an very liable to get out of order, and fraught with danger. When the pressure of steam is 501 be., very little more heat will cause a great increase of pressure. This is the economy of high pressure steam. Re-examined by Mr. Knowles—l don't think that this boiler would have been safe for any length of time at a pressure of 6010 s. Mr. It. Roberts, of Manchester, engineer, said that the stays of the boiler in question had not been properly fast ned, and, from the position of the rivets, he thought that only one rivet at a time had any hold on the boiler. The consequence would be that the angle iron would break at the top, and the boiler would burst. If he had seen the boiler when it was made he should have been loth to have trusted it with a pressure of 20Ibs. to the inch. Crosaezamined—lt is ten years since I had anything to do with boilers. I was a member of the firm of Sharpe, ito berts, and Co. In the railway boiler that burst at Long sight they used the longitudinal stays. Mr. Benjamin Fothergill, of Manchester, engineer, cor roborated the other witnesses as to the bad condition of the stays of the boiler, and said that a continual lessening of the strength of the boiler would daily occur. Mr. Serjeant Wilkins addressed the jury for the de fendant, contending that the explosion of the boiler was attributable to the negligence of the foreman and engineer iu'allowing the steam to get up to an extreme pressure. It was quite clear that ten minutes before the explosion the pressure was got up to Milbe., and four minutes previously it was up to 691 b., after which time Mr. Nasmyth ad mitted that very little extra heat would cause the pressure to get up with great rapidity. Besides this, he contended that the safety valve was defective. His lordship, in summing up, said, that besides the al leged bad construction of the stays, the principal question for the jury was whether at the time of the explosion the pressure hffd exceeded 60 lb. to the inch, the pitmen which it had been warranted by the defendant to bear. He desired answers to the following queries:—lit. Whe ther they considered the boiler properly made. 2nd. Whether they thought the boiler capable of bearing a pressure of 60 lbs. to the square inch. 9rd. Whether at the time of the explosion the promo was more than fffilbs. to the inch. The juts, after as hour's deliberation, answered the two first questions in the negative; and with regard to the third, said they had no evidence before them showing at what pressure the boiler was working at the time. Baron Martin—Then that is a verdict for the plaintiff. THE POLICE COURTS. CITY POLICE COMMITTEE. Joaepls Clayworth, the poultry salesman, of No. 74, Oracechurch-street, appeared to answer the following com plsiat ; Police-mutable William Baldwin, 637, stated, that on the night of the 18th inst., at 11 o'clock, he heard screams of " Murder', proceeding from 76, Gracechurch-street, and, on hastening thither, he found the door open, and a crowd of persons io front of the house. On entering the shop, he saw the defendant besting his wife, and blood was streaming from her mouth. He parted them, and ob served, " Mr. Clayworth, you should not beat a woman like that ;" to which he replied, " Tura her out of my house ;" and having repeated some imprecations both filthy and awful, added, " I have got something here, as soon as I can get it, that with do for you ." He then went to the far end of the shop, and, taking down a hummer, said, " You may draw your truncheon. I have got *something as good as you have." Another con stable arrived, and defendant then flung down the hammer and went into the parlour, after shaking his fist in wit ness's face. Police-constable Blake, 566, spoke to the violent treat. merit of Mrs. Clayworth by her husband. About five weeks ago be interfered, and the defendant threatened to do for him. Alderman Copeland asked the defendant to reflect seri ously upon the position he would have been in if he had killed his wife. When the officers interfered, they saw blood flowing from her month; and as he liked to call things by their primer names, he must say the defendant was a brute. He could send him to prison for • month, without inflicting any fine . • but as this was his first appear ance, he would fine him 405., and order him to enter into his own recognisance in 801., to ken the peace for six months. The fine was paid. CLERKENWELL. IVilliaas Cantos was charged with steam; a 101. note, • 61. note, aad other money, from Mr. James Henry Thompson, of Vincent -street, Oakley square, Somers-town. The prosecutor stated, that on Tuesday night last the prisoner, who is related to him by marriage, supped with him at his own residence, and stopped with him until the next day, when they separated, the accused stating that business called him to Paddington. On witness's arriving home in the evening, he miwd though from his sleeping room, and feeling satisfied that the prisoner only had taken it, he went to him, when he said, "Oh, I took it for a joke, and have given it to uncle to take eau of, and you shall have it again to-morrow morning, if you will go with me." This off-hand conduct of the accused lulled wit ness's suspicions until the next day, when, as the prisoner neglected to keep his appointment, the prosecutor consulted Abrahams, the detective officer of the S division, by whom Carden was captured at the London-docks on Friday, rigged out in the costume of a midshipman. The policeman, on searching the prisoner, discovered where be had taken fresh lodgings, and on examining them, the constable found two dozens of new shirts, an equal number of stock ings, tad other new articles of clothing in abundance, be eides a dirk, a revolver, and a ship's ticket, showing his intention of making a trip to the diggings. Beyond this property, the officer had recovered 91. of the prosecutor's money. Mr. Tyrwhitt remerked, that the proesenstor was lucky after all, and asked the mussed if ite wished to say any thing. He said," It's of no use to deny it," and was com mitted for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. JoSn Eyre Joheaeon was charged with kavieg stolen Itheellery at various times from the show-rooms of Messrs. RIM sad Reskell, New Bond-street, of the value of up on* e ••• thousand pounds. It appeared that the prisoner had come to this country at the tine of the Great Exhibition. He had introduced him self to Messrs. Hunt and Bothell under the pretence that he had come to England to make purchases of jewel lery. He bought various articles from time to time of the firm and paid for them. Messrs. Hunt and Roskell mimed from the show-rooms same valuable articles of jewellery; and, on taking stock, • serious less was discovered. The prisoner was suspected, but by some means he contrived to obtain informed.= of the suspicions against him, and went to FlllB4ll. His wife was about to follow him, but was stopped at the South Eastern station, and taken into custody. The wife was examined at this court several times, but nothing beyond the circumstance of her having been seen with a diamond serpent bracelet, answering the de scription of one of the missing articles of jewellery, In her possession, was brought against her, and she was conse quently discharged. The prosecutors caused handbills, offering • reward for the apprehension of the prisoner and the recovery of the jewellery, to be circulated here and fa Paris. Information of the prisoner's residence in Pule having been obtained, application was made to the French authorities for the apprehension of the prisoner. Some de lay occurred in executing the warrant, and the prisoner was at last apprehended by John Forrester, and brought to this country. The prisoner was so disguised with hair, and his appearance was so altered sines his residence in France, that it was at first thought the wrong person bad been ap prehended, as his passport did not apes with his appear ance. Mr. John Hunt, of the firm of Messrs. Hunt and Rothe% jewellers, Bond -street, said—ln the course of last year I saw the prisoner at our shop. lie was then without beard, moustaches, or whiskers. The prisoner often came to the shop, and during that time I missed articles of jewellery. On taking stock I missed several rings. Two of these rings I afterwards saw at Messrs. Attenborough's, pawnbrokers, Newington-causeway. I afterwards ascertained that the prisoner had opened • banking account with the British Bank, and bad paid in some 101. notes, which were the produce of the two rings pawned at Masers. Attecborough's. From information I am in possession of I expect to be able to prove that the prisoner stole a diamond bracelet, and other articles. The prisoner gave no explanation of the charge against him, and was remanded until Thursday. GREAT FIRE AT KNELLS, NEAR CARLISLE.—On Saturday morning last, the extensive mansion of Jobe, Dixon, Et., of Knells, near Carlisle, was burnt to the ground—the outside walls only being left standing. The fire originated in the butler's pantry. About half-past eleven o'clock on the previous night he retired to rest, the members of the family and servants having preceded him. All then appeared to be safe. Between one and two be heard an unusual noise, and supposed the house was being broken into; but, to his great astonishment, found fire ragiag upon all sides. He instantly gave the alarm, when the inmates of the house escaped with safety. The loss is variously estimated at 10,0001., 12,0001., and 14,0001.

COTTON.—MANCHMITIM, MA UCH 26.—The holidays interfere with business. and there hes n,lt been a great deal done, but mill prizes are steadier, being supported by the Gramma of the Liverpool market. A slight (either con cession of prices would evidently bring a large business spina the market, ap agents and buyers generally have a ' good accumulation of orders on band, which they would avail themselves of the first favourable opportunityito exe cute. At preeent retie confidence seems next to impossible. WOOLLEN CLOTH.—Lasna, MAaCK 26.—We have had a fair average bieiness done in the Cloth-halls to-day, and considering the scantiness of choice in the 'lock of cloth at present in the market, almost a better business has been done than could have been reasonably expected. The present weather is operating against the spring trade (which ought now to be in full activity), and the demand for the home market is in consequence only of a limited charac ter, but as awe is a (air shipping business doing the trade in the warehouses is on the whole of an average amount. WOOL.—Lzans, Blanca 26.—1 n the wool markets a considerable business has been done during the present week, and prices continue to tend upwards. The stock of foreign wools on hand is small, but colonial and English wools continue in good assortment, and in fair demand. HARDWARE.—BIRMINGUAW, MARCH 26.—There hu been no change whatever in the state of trade here since our last report. In every branch the manufactories are in fall work, many of them having orders in hand sufficient to occupy for a couple of months. The foreign trade is, upon the whole, brisk. The price of copper is easier, and pur chases more easily effected, at prices varying from three to five pounds leis than would have been accepted a month since. CORN. Cornissinon, March 26.—Our supply of corn was small to-d■y, and last week's prices were fully main tained, with an upward tendency. Wheat, 4.1 v. to 50s. Barley, 235. to 335. Peas, 20s. to 82s. Oats, 141. to 245. Cowrzaseav, March 26.—We had but a moder►te sup ply at market this week. Wheat was rather a better sale, at a small advance. Wheat, new, brown, 38s. to 48s. ; white, 01d,!555. ; new, 42e. to 50s. Barley, 31s. to 355. 6d. Oats, 20s. to 211. Beaus, 345. to 38s. Peas, 344. to 361. Citaust.n, March 26.—There was a full average supply of grain at our market to-day. The demand good, at prices much the urns as the la•t few weeks. Concuss-an, :March/ 26.—The short supply of all de- 1 seriptions of grain, Wheat and Barley Is. per cheaper. Beans' and Peas unaltered. GLOUCISTIR, March 26.—There was but • fair attend ance at our market this day; English Wheat was in good demand, and prices the turn in favour of sellers. he business done in foreign was confined to retail parcels, at about former prices. Barley, whether for malting or grind ing pupas, moves off slowly, at previous quotations. Bans firm. Oats remain without change in price, the sales made being confined to the present wants of consumers. The weather continuos to be extremely severe. Imports of the week :—What, 9,333 ; Barley, 1,491 ; Oats. 1,822. GUILDFORD, March 26.—There was again a very large market of Wheat. Tile sale was sluggish, but an extensive clearance was made. We ue no difference in priers for general runs ; inferior sorts were unsaleable, except et anus reduction. Wheat, 345. to 545. Barley, 265. to S3s. Oats, 18e. to 245. Beans, 345. to 40s. Peas, 345. to 40s. HIRTFORD, March 26. We had • short supply of Wheat at market to day ; trade firm at last week's prices. Barley not much offering ; last week's prices supported. Oats, Peas, and Beane made fully as much money. Wheat, from 245. to 375. per load. Barley, 245. to 384. per qr. Oats, 13s. to 245. Peas, 18s. to 245. per load. Beans, 181. to 28e. Tares, 20s. to 265. Eye, 18s. to 20s. MAN CRIIITIR, MARCH 26. A slightly improved demand for Hour has been experienced during the week, ad priers have assumed more steadineu. Oatmeal has been in moderate request without change in value. The imports into Liverpool, owing no doubt in some mea sure to the prevalence of contrary winds, are only scanty. At our market this morning there was only a moderate amount of business 'musing, but holders were firm in re quiriof the full currency of this day se'nuitcht for all ar ticles, in which we therefore make no alteration. Naweaevue-oron-Trsin, March 26.—Tbe trade during the present week has assumed more steadiness, and there has been a more general disposition on the part of our millers to parches., but the want of suitable qualities of Wheat has had the effect of circumscribing transactions. Flour has not been offered so freely, but we can note no general improvement in the demand, those who have stocks being determined to be through before making further purchases. In other articles but few transactions have warred, and their value remains unchanged. Tbe advice. Received from the agricultural districts show a general tendency to improvement, and it is fair to assume, as supplies from the Baltic will be longer in coming to hand era at one time was anticipated, a alight rally in fine dry new Wheat may occur in the interval, inasmuch as millers' stocks must be getting low,sand will have to be replenished before any receipts of consequeoce from abroad can arrive. At our market this morning we had a more liberal supply of Wiest from the growers, but, having nothing fresh in from theeemet.aelearanc• was esrly effected at the full rates of this day se/maffght. South country and foreign may be written a shade ismer, with rather more inquiry. Flour was held firmly, but the amount of business passing was upon the whole limited. In Rye little stirring, and only the choicest qualities are saleable. Choice country Barley went off freely at rather higher prices for seed, 345. having been ob tained for samples suitable for that purpose, weighing na turally iffibs. to 671bs. per bushel, whereas good runs, weighing 6441 be. to 66ibe. per bushel, found buyers at 325. In the value of select Norfolk and Suffolk no change oc curred, but inferior stained was in slow request, and rather lower. Malt stationary, and the same remark will apply to Beans and Peas . Being moderately supplied with Oats from our growers, and the arrivals coastwise being likewise upon • lees liberal sale, all descriptions were held with more firmness, sellers, at the sane time, having the turn in their favour. The arrivals this week are :=Wheat, coastwise, 1,463; foreign, 46; Rye, ooestwise, 16; Barley, 8; Oats, 186 ; Peas, foreign, 333. Nonvelon, March 28.—At our market this day there was a slender attendance of farmers and merchants. The offer of Wheat was small, the quality a little improved ; prices ruled firm, but no advance can be noted, although a few prime lots found buyers at le. per tr. above the currency of this day se'nnight. Flour was in request at last week's rates, but higher prices were not paid ; millets preferring to wait a few da,s rather than sell so low as of late. Barley trade small ; prime malting qualitiestally maintained their former value, while grinding sorts were rather more diffi cult to sell. Beans were a small supply, fair demand, and late rates were without difficulty supported. Peas were scarce, demand smell; in price no change. Oats were mere plentiful, and rather lower figures would have been taken if buyers bad come forward. For all the above arti cles our previous quotations may be unaltered. Prraithouorciu, March 26.—Although the supply d Wheat here to-day was large, in some instances an ei vance of Is. per qr. was given. Oats rnd Bulgy, fit for seedl, made rather more money, and good dry Beaus were le. per qr. dearer. RZADING, March 28.—We had a fair supply of Wisest to-day at market, with rather a thin attendance of buyers the trade ruled very slowly, aid was somewhat in favour of the buyer. Barley, although rather short in quantity,;was, except a few top lots for seed, almost neglected, end must be quoted Is. per qr. cheaper. Oats were the turn dearer, as were also Beans and Peas. Wannest, March 26.—The weather during the week has been most severe, with frost and snow, and a very low temperature. The supply of grain hero to-day has been fair, and this condition somewhat improved. Wheat met a ready demand at fully the prices of this day week. Other articles sell at about former rates. WOZOINITII4 March 26.—There was more Wheat from 'the farmers at market to-day although the attendance was small, and the trade for old kinds ruled dull, with the turn in favour of the buyer,. Batley dull, and rather cheaper. Oats held for quite as much money. Beans and Peas not mach inquired for, but the value of both unaltered. You, March 26.—We have but a moderate show of Wheat at our market to-day, for which the full prices of last week were freely paid. Fine Barley rather scarce, and quite as dear. Oats and Beans unaltered. WA:ilk/FORD, March 26.—At this morning's market the delivery of farmers' Wheat was limited in the extreme, and no difficulty was experienced in obtaining full prices for the general runs, while best samples brought rather mire money. Barley underwent no change. Oats were in rather better supply, and purchasers were enabled to ope rate at a trifle below the currency of this day se'nnight. There has been an increased demand for foreign Wheat, with the turn of prices in favour of sellers. Indian Corn has been in improved request, at • decline. Flour re mains unaltered in value. Imports that week: Wheat, 1,746 qrs.; Indian Corn, 2,300; Oats, 10 brim.; Flour, 60 sacks and 60 bele. Esports this week : Wheat, 183 bele. ; Barley, 106; Oats, 4,640 ; Flour, 100 sacks ; Oatmeal, 7 ousts. _ _ . • KIRKCALDY, March 26.—At our country markets this week we had very little grain of any kind offering; and while Barley and Oats could not be bought cheaper, Wheat sold readily at an advance of Is. per qr., at which pricq, many of our farmers would act part with their samples. Here to-day we bad moderate supplies of all kinds of grain, without much animation in the market. The greater part of the grain sold at lest week's prices. Wheat, 395. to 525. Per yr.
