THE OUANO DIWANGS. [Prom Dleitaasei o ft .astekee Washes.] Three ?oohs, without a blade of grass upon them -their brown surface cracked by • hot sun, whose beams an rarely intercepted by • cloud—rocks upon which no ✓ain has fallen sine, the Deluge—yield at present the chief Valise of Peru. They are the Chincha Islands. Ships are over gathering about them to bear off the fatness covering their ribs ; that is to say, the guano, which shall fertilise the overlaid and 'retool fields of distant countries. To this swum district may now be added that of the Lobes Islands. to which Peru lays • disputed claim ; but I believe that the deposit of guano in the Lobos Islands falls fax short, both in quantity and In quali:y, of that on the Chinches. from which all the Peruvian guano brought into Great Britain has been taken. My starting point for the guano digeings was Port Philip, or Victoria, as it is now called ; but we are now going gently, if you pleas- before the south-eist trade wind, ju-t oeening out the 'hey of Callao, the seaport of Lima. For the list few hours we have been glidiug slowly ah a t the coast, gazing upon scenery which I should like to describe, but dare not ; for though, like meet melon, a pretty good hand at painting a lower masthead or a topsail yard, I Coll make nothing of a sle, tch in pin and ink. Faint for yourself, therefore, the loam Misses of rugged brown mountains, rising in steps from the green sea, and the white !Uri at their hose, unit the pure blue sky seems to be ftStitl4 411 their di.eant peeks, where the harsh con trast between earth and air is softer el, leas by distance than by the dim grater of the everlasting snow. A fleecy bank or cloud ascending from some unseen valley belongs also to the picture. Though we are bound only far the Chinch& Islands, yet we come to an anchor at Culloo : we have aiready passed the islands once. Here I may say • word on what e a great sanoyance to all masters el ships visiting Pero, and • source of additional expense to English ship.owners and charterers. Every guano ship is compelled to enter in wards and outwards at Callao; the., in the lint lace, sailing about one hundred and fifty miles beyond the islands to reach the pert ; then, always againt a bead sled, beating the hundred and fifty mass hack spin to Pico, a smell port close to the (leach to. Here she an chors, and goes through some formal perform once or other, remaining sometance two Or three days. Then she sails bee k again nine or ten mica to the Winne+, where she loads and afterwards returns to risco. Then she gees back to Callao, and finally panes she islands for the fifth, and happily, the last time, on tier hem:want ;imams. Over all this battledore duty a ship often wastes nearly a month, besides generally losing some of her hands [rein desertion in Collar. Cr ruin it is, however, that there is invariably more formality in petty principalities and dwarf repehlies, than instates which are more able to enforce respect. Peru is by no meatta a tremendous power, and it is a token of good in the way of eivilisasion, that the huge merchant men should let themselves be bullied ty her, when the whole fleet of the golden republic might be sailed off with in one parcel, quietly stowed away on board a Canard liner. It consisted, when 1 saw it, of the steamer Rime, two VIM; the brig Osman's, eight guns; and a little schooner of four guns; the latter stationed at the islands to enforce respect from some aixtyor seventy vessels of all nations. And now up Cameo the anchor from its here,' amongst the rains of the old town of Callao, ov , r which our ship is floating. A long low point still shows the remains of the last meal made by the earthquake, which, like t dragon with the stomach of an ostrich, has so froquently snapped up tit bits of town, that the inhabitants appear to have de clined providing stone fruit for it. The present houses of Callao are mere sheds of cane and mud, which, in case of a disturbance, yield no heavy brick-bats to he cast down on the Leads of their inhabitants. Tall houses built of any heavy material are not cligiale residences in an earthquake distriete Attar five days tacking against the trade wind we round the large island of San Omlan, which forms part of thee' Chincha group, but contains little guano. We anchor then before tho town of I'i9Vl—a little Callao in point of sue, bat greater than Callao in the points of dirt and drunken ness. It gives its name to a kind of white brandy,well known in the South Seas. It is also especially noted as the resi dence of an English butcher, who supplies his countrymen with all ni inner of provisions, from green turtle to red herrings. I have little dnubt that his prices are remune rating, as he has the shipping trade all to himself. Again the ship is in motion, and in au hour the proxi mity of the guano islands is evident to ad but the most nominal none, for though still five or six miles to wind ward, the scent of the guano becomes swinger at every ship's length. The three islands lie nearly due north and south; the breadth of the passage between them being about a nei!e in one instance, and two miles in the other. The south island is as yet untouched, and from a visit I paid it, I shout,' suppose it to contain more guano than is found in either of the others. The middle jelled, at which we leaded, has been moderately winked, but the greatest quantity of guano is taken from the north island. In their general formation the islands are alike. They all rise, on the side next the main land, In a perpendicular wall of rock ; from the edge of this precipice, the guano then Mopes upwards to the centre of each island, where a pin nacle of rock rims above the surface: front this point it de scends to the sea by a rude declivity, the guano continu ing to within a few feet of the water. Each island has, at • distance, the appearance of a flattened cone, but they bars all been originally broken into rocky bills and valleys. The deposits of guano having gradually filled up the valleys and risen above the rocks, the cuttings of the guano diggers vary from • depth of ei g hty or • hundred feet to merely a few iilCl2,ll. Though the Camels are not large—their average circumference being about two miles the accu mulation of guano is almost incredible. Calculations as to the probable quantity must, on account of the varying depth of the deposits, be very uncertain. I remember making an ge of the depth, and deducing therefrom • rough emit/oat. that the three small island. alone contain upwards of two hundred and fifty millions of tons of pare guano, which, at the rate of supply which has been going on during the list five or six years. would require about one hundred rind eighty years for removal, and, at its Eng halt value—which, after deducting freight, is about five pounds per ton—would be worfi twelve hundred and fifty millions sterling. This is exclusive of vast clean. tines which hate been used by the i'erevians themselves. A recent traveller in the country asserts that guano was used in the time of the Incas, and that the Spaniards leaned its use from the Indians, who employed it coostantly. it is chiefly applied in Pena to the cultivation of maize and potatoes. The mode of applying tie manure differs from that generally adopted in kmoliod. After the plants ap pear above tee ground, • small trench is opened, in some cases round each rout, in others, along the lines. In this trench • small quantity of guano is placed, and slightly covered with earth ; the whole field is then laid under water, and allowed to remain in that condition for • Csfs taia number of hours—from 20 to dl. The water is them drained off, and the effect of the process is soon manifest in the rapid growth of the plants. Where a sufficient supply of water cannet readily 'is procured, other means of irriga tion are adopted. but the guano is sown broadcast, us In England. The name tool( is Indian, originally buena, signifying the exeremeut of animals, but altered to beano by the Spanish Peruvians; and, owing to their strong as • of the h, the English have taken the word from their lips is the shape of guano. It is found on all parts of the coast of South America, even so far south as Cape Horn ; but that obtained from the Chinch& Islands is the most highly prized, probably for its esteems dryness, as the islands lie within latitudes in which—on that coast—rain never falls. Aid now, having anchored between the north and mid dle islands, at the latter of which we are to load, we will borrow the boat and have a closer look at the huge muck heap. Pulling half round the island to the landing place, we step cohere en • narrow slip of sandy beach, which appears to be cleared from the surrounding rooks for our special convenience. Our appearance disturbs thou sands of the web-footed natives; these thousands count with the old hands as nothing, for they tell us that the shipping has e driven all the birds away. Sailing above us is a neck of ;Klima', hovering over the clear water like hawk., which they resemble in their mode of darting down or stooping on their prey. One of these every instant drops from the Hoek as though a ball had whistled through his brain ; but, after • plunge. he is soon seen rising to th e surface wit hh a fish struggling in his capacious pouch. Nearer to us. whirling round our heeds, are gannets, mews, mutton-birds, divers, gulls, gnaw* birds, and a host of others whioe names are unknown to the vulgar. On the detached reek. and the lower edge of the island—member of a pretty numerous eontrecetlon—stands the penguin, the parson-bird of the sailor, whose good same is fairly tined by his tut away black coat, white tie, and solemn de memour. His short legs planted far hack, and his long body, do not fit him for • walk ashore ; but he will tit for hours on • little rock just washed by the waves, apparently in such deep absence of mind that prawn- by are tempted to approach in hope of catching him. Just as the boat nears him, and • band is already stretched out to grasp his neck, away he goes head over heels in a most irreverent and ridiculous manner, dives under the boat, and shows hie head again about • quarter of • mile out at sea, where the sailor may catch him who can, for he is the fastest swimmer and the hest diver that ever dipped. Stepping over the mortal remains of several bee-limn, its a few strides we are on the guano, and at the next step, in it lap to our knees. The guano is regularly stratified - the lower strata are solidified by the weight of' the upper, and have acquired • dark red colour, which becomes gr adually lighter towards the surface. On the surface it has a whitey•hrown light groat, very well harked by the son ; it is • craft containing eggs, be completely honeycombed by the birds, which scratch deep, oblique holes in it to serve as nests, wherein eggs, *Odom more than two to each nest, are deposited. These hole, ones running into each other, from long gal leries with sits, sal entrances, and this mining system is so elabortely carried out, that you can scarcely put • foot on any part of the islands without sinking to the knee and being tickled with the ranee of a hard beak digging into your un protected ankles. The egg-shells and the bones and re mains of fish brought by the old birds for their young, must form a considerable part of the substasee of the guano, which is thus in • great measure deposited beneath the surface, and then thrown out by gi birds.

One but of firpretensions than the rest is ocentied by two Eng- i s• t Bon, who have taken a fancy to the island, and call themselves pilot, as they profess to moor and take charge of the ships &era' the business of loading. Close to the town is a rough and stoop path to the sea, up which am beereght the provisions and water, the latter supplied by the shipping in turns. On the north island Is a similar but larger collection of dwellings, there, too, re aides the commandant, a military-looking old gentleman— one of the high aristocracy, for he lives in a house that ha a window in it. On the north island are about two hue deed men, on the middle about eighty, usually ; the num ber varying with the demand for guano. These people are nearly all Indians, and appear to be happy enough in their dusty territory; though everything about them, eatables included, is impregnated with guano. They earn plenty of money, live tolerably well according to their taste, work in the night, and smoke or sleep all day. To get rid of their wages, they take an occasional trip to l'isco, where they spend their money much in the same fashion as sailors, substituting piece and chicha (maize beer) fur rum and ale, and the guitar and fandango for the fiddle and hornpipe. In getting the guano, the diggers have commenced oriel- natty at the edge of the precipitous side of the island, and worked inland ; so that the cutting now appears like the feet of a quarry worked into the side of a hill. The steep, perpendicular face of the rock, which rises from the sea like a wall, and the boldness of the shore—there is seven fathom water does in—have strudel great facilities to the loading of ships. 'On the top of the cliff is • large enclo sure formed of stakes, firmly bound together by strong chains passed round the whole. This cue mare is capable of holding (our or five hundred tons of guano. It is made wide, and open at the upper end, and gradually slopes down to a point on the extreme verge of the precipice, where a small opening is loft, exactly fitting which is a large mans show or pipe, which lungs down the face ef the rock, nearly to the water. The ship, having taken in by means of her boats enough guano to ballast her, Melo into this shine, the end of which is taken aboard mud passed down the hatchway. Tho guano is Rhus poured into the hold in a eontiauous stream, at the rubs of about 3.50 tom a Jay, the enclosure being filled by the Indians during the night. They carry the whole of the guano down on their backs in bags, taking sheet 80 pounds at each journey. 1 Some are employed in pushing the guano down the chute, at the mouth of which is statiened an Indian, who, by tightening a repo passed round it, regulates or stops the descant of the manure. To various parts of the long pipe ropes are attached, which lead to the different mast-heads of the ship, and thence on deck, where each rope is tended by • man who, by successively hauling on and slacking it, keeps the chute in motion, and thus hinders it from choking. This choking, however, now and then occurs ; and it is then • difficult and tedious matter toast right again, as the pres sure binds the guano into a compact mass, which can some times only be liberated by cutting the shuts open. Birds are frequently carried down into the ship's held; and at one of the islands, an Indian, accidentally slipping in, was forced through the sbute, and taken out at the other end quite dead. On each island there are two enclosures and two 'hula, one much smaller than the other, being used only for loading boats. After making ourselves fully acquainted with all the economy of the island, we retrace our painful path to the boat, and pull off to the ship, where, the day being Sunday, there is no work going on, 11141 we can amuse ourselves with the scenery around us. Every little hollow in the islands has been gradually filled up, until the surface is nearly levelled; the general dark brown hue singularly broken by scattered projecting crags, white with humus bleneo—newly-depcsited guano. Hound the base of the islands little rocky penimulas jut out, bored through in many places by the constant washing of the Pacific, whose gentle waves have insinuated themselves many yards into the solid rock, and have formed ca verns which are the resort of numerous sea-lion.. The time of these hermits seems to be divided between dozing in their gloomy looking cells and making hungry irruptions on the shoals of little fish which frenuestly_psee through the channels. 1 hare often watched thus Meta fellows—packed in such dense masses that they soma to 1 hare scarcely room to swim in—moving rapidly along, a spray of them every moment leaping from the water and glittering for an instant in the sun ; all evidently ignorant of the neighbourhood of any enemy. Suddenly, in the very middle of the party, rises a black, ugly head, and instantly all is confusion—a dozen unfortunate are swallowed at a mouthful. Other heads, equally ugly, pop up in annex. petted places, and you can distinctly hear the snapping of the sea-lion's jaws as he works through the flying shoal, and finishes • dinner worthy of • cardinal in Lein. It is not, however, all small fry; whales often come gambolling be tween the islands, rolling and playing in the sun, and saw times leaping clean out of the water, nto which their kw bodies descend again with • crash t hat i seems to shake the sea itself, sod turns the surface into one great frothy wash ing-tub, amidst the suds of which the giant slowly sinks, throwing up his broad black fluxes as if in derision. lint now our work begins in earnest. Ballast is hoisted up, and thrown over the side, and the long boat is busily employed in bringing guano to replace it. Moat unpleasant work that is. I was one of the boat's crew, and, since of course much rivalry exists between the ships, that all desire priority in trading, we were at work night and day, leaving our ship at night, and remaining under the shute until morning, so as to obtain the first load for our boat. I shall not moon forget the dismal hours we passed there. Close to us—every surge of the boat sending her into its mouth—was • dark cavern, into which the sea poured with one con tinuous roar. A few fathoms &saint stood an isolated rock, every wave dashing boldly up it, and then falling back in sheets of foam, and scattering all around in showers of heavy spray. On our right, moored to the rocks, lay a loading ship, ter warps and cables docked for the night, leaving some 20 feet of dark water between her and the huge black cliff; the base of the clidemeked by the bright line of light which ever glitters on the beshen wave of the Peskin Glancing aloft, we saw, rWmg_asd falling with the ship's motion, the long white shuts, ta e a fairy footpa th kikthe reek ; whilst, drawa upon t he char blue sky, woes mod Wanes, bowlimes stays, Gae l theas oaf an familiar to the war Aai, to •i / sr island; bar * dense.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT.—YESTERDAY. BETOM MR. BARON MARTIN AND MIL !MICR CIONAPTON. Arreweven blonDen or A Winn. Thomas Henry Knight, hO, was indicted for feloniously cuttiog and wounding Mary Anne Knight, with intent to murder her. It appeared from the evidence of the proeteuttix that the prisoner was her husband, and that they occupied one room together. On the night of August 1.1, they went to bed, and about 12 o'clock the prisoner suddenly exclaimed that he must get up and pray, and he left the heel and remained up until two o'clock in the morning. At that time by the request of his wife he again got into bed, and re mained there until .1 in the morning, when he got up and dressed himself and lighted the fire. Ile continued in the room until 9 o'clock, at which time the proseeuteix saw him standing before the fire-place, and it appeared that he sud denly seined a china bell, or ornament, from the chimney piece, and rushed to the bed where Lis wife was lying with it in his bond, and struck her a violent blow on the head with it. The blow almost rendered her insensible, but she contrived to scramble from the bed, and was about to leave the room to o;etain assistance, when the prisoner again attacked her, and wounded her in the shoulder and hand with an instrument used by him in his business as a watch finisher. Some other lodgers in the house then interposed, and the prisoner was secured, but it appeared that before this could be done, the prisoner wounded one of the parties with the same instrument with which he bad inflected the wound upon his wife. The prosecutrix, in the course of her eel denee, said that the prisoner had conducted himself in a very wild end incoherent manner on the morning in ques tion, and that he had been drinking freely on the previous day. The prisoner, in answer to the charge, said that he had been drinking, and was very excited in consequence, sad he had no recollection of what had taken place. The jury found the prisoner Guilty of unlawfully wound ing. the prosemitrix immediately got into the witness-bot and entreated the learned Judge to deal mercifully with her hushandt Mr. Haien Martin said there was always the painful cir cumstance connected with cases of tie's description, that the wife, who was the innocent patty, not only suffered injury in the first instance, by the violeece that was inflicted upon her, but she end her family were also severe sufferers after wards, from the imprisonment of the husband. The court, however, was bound to repress such exhibitions of violence, and with that view felt it to be a duty to order the prisoner to be kept to hard labour fur nine months. POST-OFFICE ROBBERY. Theehold Philip Butler, 32, clerk, pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing a post letter containing money, the pro perty of the l'ostmtetter-General. Mr. Ballantine, who appeared for the prisoner, said he was perfectly imprcesed with the very serious nature of the crime to which the prisoner had pleaded guilty, and he knew at the same time that it was always regarded by the court as one which imperatively called for severe punish ment. Ile begged, however, respectfully to represent to the court in this case that the poisoner was moat respect ably—indeed he might say highly—conneeted, and he bad himself Riled the position of an officer in the army. In consequence, however, of having sustained a very serious loss, he was compelled to accept a subordinate position in the rusbottice ; and probably his former ha bits of indulgence and luxury had been, to some extent, the means of inducing him to commit the °fleeces. He knew that this could not by any possibi lity be taken as a justification, but he trusted that the misery and suffering a person in the position of the prisoner must already have undergone would be taken into consi deration, and afford a grtrand for some mitigation of punish ment. Mr. Baron Martin, in passing sentence, said it was a very melancholy thing to age a person like the prisoner standing at the bar of a criminal court, and it was painful for the court to be compelled to pass sentence in such a caw. The offence of stealing letters, however, was one of so very se , rises a kind, and fell so heavily upon the poorer classes of the community, that it was the imperative duty of the court to pus a sever* sentence in every case where an offence of this description was established. He then sentenced the prisoner to be transported for tan yews. THE POLICE COURTS. _ MANSION-HOUSE. - - Rebecca Truman, a person of exceedingly mild and in nocent appearance, was brought before Sir Peter Laurie, sharged upon suapition of having robbed Mrs. Mills, the wife of a medical gentleman, residing in Aldgate, of two purses containing V. 135., in en omnibus. The lady said, I got into the now and Stratford omnibus at Aldgate. The prisoner sat neat to me on the right hand, and was the only person in *e omnibus who could have robbed me. When we got to the East India House she stopped the omnibus to gotoutand I immediately disisovend that my pocket had been picked of my purses, one of which was within the other. A ISM who appeared to be ac quainted with her, and who sat opposite to her, got out before her, and some gentlemen in the omnibus said that na doubt she had handed my property to him. Sir Peter Laurie—ls the prisoner known to the police ? The Turnkey of the Compter said there were persons present who knew her. The prisoner's Solicitor (to the witness)—Did you see her take anything? Witness—l did not. . - . TlLipi:TancisFsicitor—l submit that there is no evi dence at all against my client. Some other person In the omnibus must have taken the property. Several of the detective officers said they knew the pri soner to be a most ingenious thief who frequented omni buses for the purpose of plunder, but notwithstanding her cleverness, she had been several times summarily convicted and she had been once tried at the Old Bailey. Sir Peter Laurie (to the prisoner's solicitor).—What do you say to that? The Solicitor.—Thero Is nothing at all to show that she committed the robbery. The omnibus conductor said that the prisoner went iota the omnibus at Whiteehapel Church. There were four of them, two men outside, and she and another man inside. Sir Peter Laurie.—This woman, with her mild and simple appearance and manners, is calculated to do a great deal of mischief in this wsv, and I eball remand her in the hope of getting further evidence against her. The prisoner (to her aolieitor).—Tell him to settle it at once. There is no use in remanding me. Sir Peter Laurie—l choose to conduct my business in my own way. Other people might have been robbed by her and might wish to see her, and I therefore remand her till Friday next. The prisoner, who was evidently chagrined at the deter mination of the alderman not to give a summary judgment, was then remanded accordingly. (harks Darer ' clerk in the house of Belli, Massebini, end Co., merchan ts, was charged with having robbed his employers of a considerable amount of money. Mr. Mulleins, of the firm of Bush and Mullen., solicitors to the committee of benison for protection against forgeries and frauds, attended for the prosecution. Mr. Ambrose John Belli said—l carry en business in partnership with Mr. Massebini, at Ns. 4, (heat Winches ter-street. The prisoner has been in our service since January, 1851. On the 22nd of Meech, 1851, we were in debted the sum of HI. to Messrs. Durand and Co., and I gave the prisoner a cheque for that amount to pay the debt. On the 15th of July we owed Mr. Elmsley, of Lombard-street, 10/. 17s. &1., and I banded to the prisoner a chipqmo with directions to pay that debt. I learned from Mr. Durant that the money duo to him had not been paid. I produce our cash-book which contains an =try of the payment of the first sum in his handwriting. Mr. Edward .1. Wilson, a clerk in the house of Durant, Buttemar, and Co.. silk brokers, &e., No. 11, Copthall court, and Mr. Elmsley, of Lombard-street Chambers, Clernent's-fisne, stated that the accounts due to them had not been paid by the prisoner. It appeared that the prisoner bad been discharged from his situation on account of the deficiency stated in the evi dence, and that upon farther investigation it was found that he had extended the plunder to upwards of 1,0001., upon' the discovery of which a reward of 501. was offered for his apprehension. 'fhe prisoner was then remanded. Elizabeth Peekup was charged with having made a despe rate attempt to drown herself. Ono of flie policemen on duty at London-bridge saw the wretched woman dash from the stain into the water, which was ebbing rapidly. At that moment, however, • young Waterman jumped in after her and saved her life.

TILE MORNIONITES IN BRIGHTON. At the Brighton Petty Sessions, on Monday last, Jarrell Cager was summoned for creating a disturbance at the Monnonito Chapel, and committing wilful and mali cious damage. Henry HoMet, on being sworn, said—l am_ praddent and elder of • society of Christians * known as Mennonites or Latter Day Saints. We were holding divine worship at half-past eight o'clock last Monday evening. I saw Cager on that evening at the door of our place of worship in Richmond-buildings. The bottom put of the door was beaten in. The door was forced open. We do not usually lock the door. It was locked on that occasion because of the mob outside. I heard some kicking at the door. The first person I saw when I opined the door was Cager the defendant. I spoke to him. I wished him to withdraw from the place. He said, "I'll not go until I receive a boy." That boy war Osborn, whom we had up there. He is not a relation of Cager's that lam aware of. He said he would . poll me ent. During that evening the windows were smashed. We have been very much annoyed every time we have met during the last fortnight. I em re sponsible for the rent of that place. I am responsible for the damage that has been done. I pay the rent to I Mr. Smith, who lives in Middle-street. Cross-esamined—Our worship commenced at half-put 8 lad Monday evening, and continued until 10 o'clock. On the night in question there was a mob before the door. I was there when it was broken open, and there were several other persons also. I was preventing the mob from coming in. Thus was not the foot of a woman between the door and the doorpost that I know of. I never beard that there was a woman's foot in that position. There were a number of pumas trying to thrust themselves into the Mr. Partridge—Did you hear a woman scream or my anything ? Witnebs-1 did not. When the doer was opened, • woman named Wallace tried to scratch my face. She said she would pull me out. She did not say I had jammed her foot between the door and the door-post. The bystanders cried Shame," as they always do. Mr. Cager did not say to me that he was pushing the door to release a woman. It was between 9 and 10 o'clock. The bottom pert of the door was broken, and the bottom panel wee pushed through. I did not know the parties who were there. I have heard since that there was • woman's foot between the door and the door-post. The amount of damage done I lay at 12s. ; but that will not pay for it. Ily Mr. Partridge—When the door was broken open the service was going on. I have temporarily repaired the door. We do not lock the door. It was locked when the mob broke in. Stephen Mitchell sworn—l era a member of tbo society of Latter Day Saints. I was present at the meeting last Monday evening. I went out when the mob was created. I saw Mr. Coster goand take hold of the handle of the door. I also saw bits knock, and heard him say to the mob, " Corns on, let us have the boy out." Cross•esemined—The boy inside was seised because he had broken the windows and shatters. Mr. Kennett addressed the bench on behalf of the de fendant. The question was this. Did Mr. Cager wilfully and maliciously break the door ? The boy who was taken into custody by the Saints was in the employ of Mr. Cager. Mr. Cager was told that his boy had been seised and taken as a prisoner, and was detained in the meeting house, and he went to request that the boy should be given up, or if anything had been done by the boy that was wrong that he should be taken to the Town Hall. The Saints, how ever, refused to release the boy. Mr. Cager went home and his wife entreated him not to leave the boy ; and Mr. Cager, therefore, went back again, and as he was returning he heard some one screaming and found it was Mrs. Wal• lace, whew foot was fast between the door and the door post, and Mr. Cagey assisted in releasing her. The Saints bad no business to seise the boy, and they were not justi fied in inflicting the punishment they bad done upon Mrs. Wallace. Mr. Cager intortled him that he had not broken the door. The witnesses for the defence were then called. Martha Salo sworn—l live at 13, Richmond-buildingo, not far from the room spoken of. I remember Monday lot. There was a di.turbanco on that day which these people made. There was a boy in custody. I did not see hint takers. Mr. Cager was at the door of the meeting house when I came down the street at about a Quarter before tea o'clock. He was trying to release Mrs. Wallace from the door. She was &creaming, and appeared much pained. I saw Mr. Coact release the woman's foot. Ile did it by pushing the door. He did not use more violence than was necessary to release the woman. Whea the woman was released she fainted. I took her out of the hands of Mr. Lager. She could not walk. I did not see Mr. Cager do' anything further after he had released the woman. Cron-examined—l went with the woman to 17, Rich mond-buildinae, and I bathed her foot. She was lame the nest day. I parted with the woman, and in about half-an hour I returned to the meeting house and the door we* , broken open. Mr. Cape did not break the door open when the woman's foot was taken away. The boy that was in custody is not in Mr. Cager's employ. Mr. Weller—There is rather a strong feeling against the Mormonites, is there not ? WitneThey are a very great nuisance, I can gesture you, air. (A laugh.) Mr. Hu!list recalled—The door was broken at the time the woman tried to scratch my face. Mr. Carpenter-06, then, that settles the question. The door was broken, he says, before the woman was released; and under any circumstances, Mr. Cager, or any other person, was justified in releasing • woman wheals saw her in such • condition. That will conclude the case. What Mr. Cager did was to save the woman's toot, and be was justified in releasing her.—Summons dismissed. SUMS V. JO IM Ji Thu defendant was summoned for dutiable( the sow grTr. ti Tiller asked, on the part of the complaisant., that defendant should be bound over to keep the pew, under the 12 and 52 Geo. 111., chap. 135, and see. 12. Mr. Carpenter said this was an indictable offence. The ease was compromised.—Brighton Guardian. DEATH FROM GODFRErS CORDIAL. On Monday an inquest was held before Mr. Hitching, at the Black Swan Inn, en the body of Elizabeth Linton, an infant, aged only a few hours. It appeared, from the statement of the witnesses, that the child was born on Friday lest, in Swan pool-court, and appeared quite healthy and well until about 10 o'clock on Saturday night, when it was affected with Internal convulsions, and the surface of its body became black. A witness, named Thomas, and the mother of the child smelt Oodfrey's cordial in the breath of the child on the night in questkm, and there was a patio.' still remaining in a sap in the room. The nurse (Ellen Gadsby) wss interrogated on the subject, bat at that time denied having administered any to the child, but sabot. quently stated that in coming down stairs she had spilt some en the child's face, and that abs had fed it with the same swop, and that was the reason of its breath smelling of the Gcdfrey's. The nurse was stated to be drink on Friday, but sober on Saturday. Mr. Lowe, surgeon, said he at. tended Mrs. Linton, on Friday morning, when she was delivered of a healthy female child ; he saw them both on Saturday morning and they were both doing well ; about half-pest Ilion Saturday night he saw the child again, in consequence of a message that ho hid received ; it had been convulsed, hut then appeared tolerably well. The mother told him that she believed the nurse had given it some Godfrey's three or four hours previously, which the nurse denied; the mother was ordered not to allow the child to sleep, and if it appeared worse to send for wit ness again. Next morning, on going again, he found that the child was dead ; he timecard himself of opinion that the child had died from poisoning by the administra tion of a narcotic; a tea-spoonful of Godfrey's would con tain one drop of laudanum which would be sufficient to canoe death at that early age, as had been proved. Ellen Gadaby, the nurse, stated that on the afternoon of Saturday the child was very cress, and that she took it down stairs and fed it with some sago ; she then took the child up stairs and again brought it down together with Nome Godfrey's in a cup; she then took the child up again, and put it at the back of the mother, who asked the witness if she bad given it any Godfrey's, which she denied, and fetched up the cup containing it, and drank it. The witness said that the Godfrey's was taken down to be out of the way of the children, and a portion of it was spilt out of the cup • the child was fed with the spoon that had been in the Oodhey'e, but It had had none given to it. This witness, on being closely questioned by the coroner, at length admitted having given the child a small quantity of it, though she had posi tively denied having done so. The jury returned a verdict in accordance with the above facts, and the coroner strongly censured the woman Gcdsby for her imprudent use of fkd frey_.'a Cordial, which in all probabi li ty caused the death of the infant.—Bur Poet. TILE LATE JOHN CAMDEN NEILD.—A COlTegpoll. dent says:—" This gentleman wan the grandson of Mr. Camden, a great sugar baker of Wapping, who had three children, one son and two daughters. The daughters mar ried respectively Mr. James Neild, jeweller, of St. James's street, and Mr. John Mangles. The only brie; relations of Mr. Neild are ail first cousins, five of them children of Mr. John Mangle., ship chandler, of Wapping, whe resided some time at Morley, Berks, and died in the Circus, Datil; the sixth and remaining cousin is the only . child—a daughter—of the late John Camden, of Toagnmouth, Devon, latterly an amateur painter. James Neild, father of the deceased, died intestate, and his property, amount ing to 260,0001., reverted wholly to this his only child; he was godfather to James Mangles, Commander R.N., whom name is familiar as that of one of the earliest exploren in Egypt and the Holy Land."

Edward Cotten, an Irishman, was charged with having broken the rib. of Margaret M'Carthy by jumping upon her. Margaret M'Curthy, wife of Michael M'Carthy. of No. 4, Clark's-buildings, St. Odes's, said—On Tuesday night week, about half-past eleven o'clock, she was sitting in tho Oeorce public.house, Dudley-street, when the prisoner and several of his countrymen began " larking " with each other. The prisoner's trousers were torn in the miler ' end this caused her to laugh. The prisoner turned upon her in a ferocious manner, beat her with his flat, tore her bonnet from her head, caught hold of her leg, tripped her up, and then began kicking her on the side, finishing his attack by jumping on her body and breaking three of her ribs. Com plainant was removed to King's College Hospital, and lice ribs were set. She had been in the hospital for some time, but was now discharged. Thu constable, Bush, who took the prisoner into custody, raid the prisoner was the worse for liquor. The prisoner said he had served out the complainant, and would serve her worse. _ _ The prisoner, in defence, said the complainant did not wish to hurt him, and ber friends wanted the matter to be made up. Mr. Bingham said the assault was of a character too atrocious to allow him to consent to any compromise. The prisoner must therefore take his trial for the offence. The prisoner wu fully committed. RuGert //atria, a young man, by trade a tailor, was chug. d with marrying three wives. Sarah Charngbould proved that she was present when the prisoner married Ann Cremia, his lint wife, in who wag still living. Sarah Ann Wilson proved that aho was married to the prisoner in July last. The third wife was not in court. The prisoner was remanded fur further evidence. MARKETS.
