CONSISTORY COURT.—YESTERDIT. Bows De. LI,IIINCITOS. This eau ;which had been commenced on the previous day) WA. a suit for • divorce, by reason of cruelty aad adul tery, brought by Mrs. Juniata Mary Bacon Ciocci against Rephael Cioeei. The parties were married at Brighton on the 15th January, and they separated on the following 11th of March. The defendant was a teacher of languages at Brighton, wit . re, re, it was asserted, he bad an engagement to teach at 20 I riles' eehoois. Ile bad also been employed to translate J.. well's Apology "'into Italian, by tbe Sseiety for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge, and be bad, since 1848, beta an active member, from his own statement, of the Female Aid Society, established in Red Lion square. At the time of his marriage he was about 27 years of age, while his wife, then Miss Franz, was considerably older. and was possessed of • fortune amounting to 40,0001. The charge Oniony was almost entirely grounded upon the fact set forth in the libel that Mr. Ciotti, knowing himself to be diseased did, in spite of warning, contract the marriage, arid impart to Mrs. Cowl the disorder in question, whereby she was reds fed to a state of great debility. It was also alleged that ever since the marriage the defendant had been in the manual hrbit of consorting with prostitutes., bith in Brighton and Leedom, and had been constantly seen in their society ; that on or about July 29, 1311, Mr. Ciocci, thee living at 8, Ciarenee-square Brighton, frequente d brothels, where he formed en adulterous intimacy with an absedeeed person named Polly Miller, and other prosti tutes. He was further alleged to have habitually com mitted adultery with his cook, named Emma Brow., and afterwards is Loudon, on the 2nd Noverabir, 1852, pursued a similar course of conduct with a person named Fanny or Eller: Alexander . In answer to the libel given in on behalf of the wife, Mr. Ciocci bad asserted an allegation setting forth that, so fee from treating his wife with neglect, she had ezperieneed at his bends the most uniform te.der new, and he had done everything in his power to promote her comfort and happiness. His wife had, two months after their manage, gone to Cuckfield, in Swum, as she niformed Mai, for the benefit of ter health, but, instead of r: turning to her husband, she signified her intention of living with him again. From such time she had care fully sennealed her resideece, and Mr. Ciocci bad never heard from her fur • year and • half, when he was served with • eitatiun to appear in the Consistory Court. It further alleged that Le, Mr. Ciocci, was • mem. Mr of the Society for the Protection of Female .', in Red Lion-square ; that he had, indeed, spokeu to Fanny Alexander, but that, in so accosting her, he had merely endeavoured to persuade her tf alter her more of life, and tilt it was altogether untrue that be on that occasion, or at any other time, took indecent liberties with her. The defend ant alleged that, in August, 1852, he saw a countryman of his, screed feminists (who at the time was • candidate for the office of minister of the Italian Protestant Church in New man-street) conversing with the female in question, and, as be suspeet,d, fur as improper purpose. lie, therefore, thon;h with much reluctance, represented this to the Rev. J. D. Oleonie, and Mr. Burgess, who were concerned in the appointment in question. lie alleged that on the 3rd Nov., la .2, he pr.:cared an Interview with the girl Alexander, and after putting questions to her, took her in • cab to the police station in Rochester-row, for the purpose of having her sworn to the tenth of tbe'answers which she bed riven n:ative to the illicit intercourse between her and Guateleta, that this object was frustrated by the magistrate refusing to interfere in any way in the matter; and that he then took the girl in the cab as far as it went her way, whilst he returned to his own lodgings alone. Dr. R. Phillimore, on behalf of Mrs. Ciocci, contended that the two charges before the court were in substance proved, and that in particular adultery of a most gross and sensual hand was clearly established by unimpeachable evidence. The learned advocate suldnitted it was fully peeved that Mr. Cioeei bad married tin wife when be was in a state of disease, and that, sheeny after such marriage, the victim of his cruelty bad unfelt.' in bed, in the manner described in the evidence. The defendant was an Italian, who, after leaving his country, and renouncing his faith, bad become a protestant. His friendship with Dr. Achilli appeared to have been struck out in the plea, but it caw out again in the intertogatious put to the wittier's, and it seemed that Achilli, Uuateleta, and Ciotti had all resided together. Same of the interrogations went to show that pretended he was subjected to persecution, owiag to his having renouseed the Roman catholic faith. Oes of the witnesses was a Miss Anna Chimney, who deposed, in answer to various questions, that she had no know:edge whatever of any Roman catholic cardinal, or bishop, or priest having been in frequent communication with Mse. Ciotti. It was evident from this that the smfgestion on the pert of the husband was, that the suit could be nothing les then • popish plot against him ; only, unfortunately for his case, there was no imputation that the medical witnesses were under the commands of any priest or cardinal. The first witness to prove adultery was a servant at No. 3, Shrftesbary-erescent, Pimlico, named Jane Legg, who stated that Ciocci called at the house one Sunday when her master and mistress were out ; and on learning that fact, seized bold of her and tried to force her into the parlour, but desisted upon being told that a person named Augustini was in the house. She farther deposed that after this he used to joke her, and ask her to meet him by appointment. It appeared that she had had an illegitimate child, and bad said she was unable to say who was its father, having bent intimate, as she asserted, with both Achill' and the person named Augustini. The nature of the de fence net up by Mr. Ciocci was, that he was the most per secut.d man in the universe ; that he was a holy man and a 'aim, whose vocation it was to redeem prostitutes. He pro fessed the purest tad loftiest motives; and, it was, urged, nothing could be more heed than that this exemplary Chris tian, who ought almost to have • halo round his head whs he weat, should be chargsd with the very act which his whole lib Mil Spilt 10 endeavouring to prevent By what isiretle Mr. Ciotti hod e ctraeted the di,cate is question did not yet appear, soul the court would tee how this would be recoeciled with his extreme piety, by the learned advocate es the other side. The evidence of rig:lotto Thomas west to prove that she bed se, .r r heard of :he Fe , male Aid Society, althsugh she knew Ciocci, and w.is r.•t aware he was an agent of that society ; but she refused •o answer the question as to whether he bad improper inter course wit► her. The learned advocate then referred to the evidence of several other witnesses, the ri stilt of whose testimony, be submitted, fully proved the charge of adul tery. In conclusion, he called upon the court to pronounce ' for the divorce. Mr. Deane followed on the same side. Dr. Addams appeared for Mr. Ciocci. He said the cue was of such a nature that he should ask the court to dis miss the suit with • sentence, condemning the wife in casts. It was assumed by the other side that Mr. Ciocci had been a Roman catholic, and hod become a protestant. There was no evidence in the cue to show this; but, even if there were, was that to subject a man to proceedings in as emits siastical court, and to subject him to be loaded Kith die credit and contumely? It was also alleeed he wax assn-' ciated with Dr. Achilli. Why, Dr. Achilli st,od justiti:d by a jury of his country as a person not open to the impu tation which had been made upon him ; and the use of Dr. Achilli's name, therefore, was merely a handle to make • reflection upon the character of Ciotti. Ile cont,nded that Mrs. Ciocci had entered into the marriage, in common parlance, with her eyes open, and that her husband had acted most generously in the matter by abstaining from endeavouring to find her out after she had left him in the manner described. It was true that she was possessed of independent property, settled upon herself; but Ciocci, had he klt disposed to seek her out, would certainly have been entitled to have shared her income, so far as living in the same house and other general expenses wen:. In proof of the manner in which he had behaved towards his wife, he would read the following letter : " April 22, 1831. "My de .r Wife,—The publicity which you have been pleased to give to our affair neceasarily obliges me to put forth my defence, that I may not also kee, besides the domestic happiness I expected, my honour, which is dearer to me than anything, much mote than my interests, which have been injured by your conduct, and are in danger of becoming more injured. But can any defence be pleasant and honourable to you, especially after I have been °bilged to seek among the articles you left behind for the cause of your withdrawal ? I have discovered but too clearly whist these CIWNI have been. If you assert that you are un happy, each how mach greater ryas -n may not I say that you have made me very unhappy. You have taken a foolish step, without foreseeing its consequence,. If I did not de sire your return—(hut after • satisfactory explanation, and a fresh agreement, which should prevent the renewal of similar rashness)—if I did not desire your return, but with the agreement of finding in you a gentle and reasonable compasioa, without intercourse with dangerous friends (who are only friends in name, and who have been the principal cause of our present unhappiness), I would not write to you. The present state of things cannot last, it must have nn end. Take counsel with your former decla rations and promises, with your reason and with year heart, and if they tell you (as I think they a ill) that duty calls you home again, come, and I will do all I can for year happiness, both of us remembering, however, that perfect happiness is not for earth, that those who are called happy have often need of the virtue of resigna tion. If you persist in a resolution which ii not yours, but with which you have been maliciously inspired, the tathlic shall hear my voice also, and so much the louder, because I have warned you of it. You know that the law would assist me, and you also know that when I have en tered upon a coarse, lam accustomed to persevere in it. I send this letter through your lawyer, ar.d this act saltiest of humiliation beat shows to you the state of my mind. I do nit know your direction. Is this right? Ia it proper and kind ? Perhaps you think I should avail myself of the right granted me by law to come and take you by force out of your concealment. Your will joined you to me, and I am neither so foolish nor so brutal as to wish for a violent re-union. I shall wait your definite resolution till next Saturday. I hope your health is perfectly restored; and believe me now, as ever, your affectionate husband, " R. Ciocci." Ile contended the statement that the wife had conteacted • disease was totally unfounded ; the only medical man called to give testimony as to her health having been of opinion that her illness arose from general weakneu of the system. That part of thecae., then, was an utter failure. As to the charge that Ciocci himself had contracted the disease, he (Dr. Addams) designated the evidence of the medical men on this point as most uncandid. It might be that Ciocci had been suffering from the disease in question at some early period of his life, and that some slight signs of it were still apparent, but there was no evidence to show that it had been recently contracted ; and he (Dr. Addams) confessed his morality did not carry him to such an extant as to adlx an enduring stigma on this character of • young man, and to blast that character for ever, because he might in an un guarded moment have been led into one act of impru dence. At this point of the case the proceedings were ad journed. Dr. Addams (resuming his argument yesterday) con tended that a strong contradiction to the charge was con tained in the letters of Mrs. Ciocci. These were the mild epistles written by a lady who had loft her husband on ac count of cruelty : Cuckfleld, March 22, 1851. " My dear Signor Ciocci,—You are kind in your inqui ries about my health. I feel much better since I have been here, and I hope in a short time to be restored to my usual health, which is always very indifferent. I think another week will be useful to me, and therefore I cannot fix to return home at presets'. Would that I could read with any degree of conflience the expressions of regard (contained in your letter of this morning) for me, but that alas ! is im possible; your eoldaess and indifference are at variance with them. With every kind wish for yourself, I remain, yours faithfully, CIOCCI." Cuckfield, March 23, 1831. " My dear Signor Comei,—You will be glad to hear I am improving in health, and tun desirous to postpone my re turn a short time longer. To-morrow lam going on a visit to • very old friend, and at the oeginning of the week I am expecting some old frieada who are autism to stay here, and the weather has been so unfavourable there was no getting about as I wished. Hoping tl.at you are in the en joyment of good health, with my vary kind regards, I re main yours very truly, " Jimix• Ciocci." " April 2, 1851. " Your conduct towards me since our marriage has been each that I feel it to be impossible that we can ever reside together with Vie least prospect of happiness to either. My health is so indifferent that I am utterly incapable of bear ing up against such ill-treat= rat and want of attention. I cannot return to you. We must separate. I have been in communication with Mr. Upperton, who is well acquainted with my determination, and to him I must refer you ; and I hope that you will be able to coins to an arrangement with him that may be desirable fer both of us. "Jr.lllWit Ciocci." It was pleaded that Ciocci himself had tolda person named San Oiosanni and Polly Miller that he had communicated to his wife the disease under which he was labouring. Any thing more extravagant and improbable then this allege- tion he (Dr. Addams) had never heard. No proof what ever had been offered in support of it. It was, indeed, stated as a sufficient reason for Saa Giovanni not Laving been called that the man was dead, and an affidavit to that effect had been handed in. San Giovanni, it was ' said, died nu the 13th of April, and yet it was on the 17th of March that the libel was put in. There was, therefore, plenty of time to examine the man, and why I had not this been done i Polly Miller had not been caned, and altogether of this pretended admission by Ciocci there was not one single proof. Leaving the charge of cruelty, which he considered wholly anestab- fished, he came now to the foul, false, and filthy allegations made upon the other declarations in the libel, which, he repeated, were supported by as gross perjury and subornation as had ever been heard of in that court. The geatlemen who seemed to have got up this case were soli. citors in the Temple, Messrs. Bolton and Balfour, who em ployed a Mr. Edger, a builder, to sustain the charges. This person engaged Owen, who had been a ponce -constable, with five or six other ex-policemen, to watch Clete', and ascertain what his habits were ; and it was upon the in. formation obtained by them that this suit was instituted. None of the other persons employed in this way had been I called, and a greater miscreant and ruffian than this Owen wirer exhibited himself in a court of justice. Ho was ' kept employed from October, I&i2, to the'prisont time, and paid at the rate of two guineas a week, with other little in dulgences, which was much better than being a policeman. One of the persons he was with was Polly Miller. With this woman Owen swore he had never been criminally intimate, but the woman Hadley swore to the direct ' contrary of this. Owen declared again that he bad never had illicit intercourse with Miss Alexander, but the fact appeared from the evidence of lintscr, that Owen went down to lioxmoor, where the woman was staying, and that soon afterwarils Owen's wife went down, and kicked up a row because her husband was cohabiting with Fanny Alex ander. Sarah French, a common woman, in her evidence, said, " I used to see him (Owen) very often indeed at one time when he was looking after the girl Alexander. I used to see him every night." What did Owen want sk iib French ? Why, to cohabit with her, and this was the wa stes to whose testimony such weight was attached' Upon the reckless charge cantainel in the libel that Ciocci had, ever since his marriage, been constantly consorting with prostitutes, only one man out of the seven who had watched him was produces!, and this person bad never watched de fendant at Brighton. Supposing any credence at all to be placed in the evidence of Owen, it amounted to this—that Quell had been seen speaking to abandoned women in the streets, always openly and during the daytime. Meeting women in the streets OILY no proof of adultery, and it was I not attempted to be established that ilstend.ust ever I went home with any of the wornea whom he thus DMA, Of ever took them home to his lodgings. Then, again, what credence could be attached to the evidence of Jane Legg ? This girl had been the servant of Dr. Achilli, and had been examined in thecae. of Dr. Achilli. On that occasion she swore that Dr. Achilli had had criminal connexion with her, but the jury had shown their disbelief in her state meat by the verdict they bad found. This witoese owned that she had many " friends," acd tna• she sr.raetiaLs walked the streets, yet on the unsupported testimony of such a character it was that Ciocci was to be :seemed et 'in citation of chastity. Coming now to the case of Charlotte Thomas, it was clear to him that this girl but committed perjury in her examination in chief, and her after state ment to Mr. Adamson that she had never had anythin4 to do with Cioeci was evidently the truth. She declared that, though she had received small sums of money from de fendant, it had never been for any improper purpose ; that Ciocei had begged her to reform, and on her promising to do so went home with her to her mother ; that he had ever been a kind friend to her; and that she was very sorry Gar what she had said before. It was evideat that the air:'s better feelings cane over her on account of what Ciocci had done I.:r her, and that what she had said in her dem sitions in chief coall not be relied on. If this part of the cast w. $ a failure, much more so was the story respect ing Polly Miller and Fanny Alexander, in which there was so much wicked ties hood that it tainted the whole of the charge against Cl.wci. The first story was, that about the 29th of January, 1851, Mr. and Mrs. Ciocci returned to , Brighton after their marriage, taking up their residence at 8, Clarence-square, and that from that time Cioeri was accustomed to frequent two brothels in that town, and bad improper intercourse with Polly Miller and others. Miller herself was not called, and the only witness examined upon the article of the allegation was Juliana Beck, the washer woman, who said she had frequently seen defendant at one of those brothels. This woman identified Ciocci in London, ° although he had shared his moustache off." Now the fact was the defendant never had worn moustaches in this matey, and had made an affidavit of that lad. There was no proof whatever that he bad worn moustaches, and as Mrs. Beck deposed particularly that the gentleman she had seen at the brAbels in Brighton had dark moustaches, and swore to defendant in London, notwithstandiiia he had "disguised himself by shaving them off," he submitted th e identity wholly failed. The decree of confrontation had been executed in a most eztraordinaryManner. Mrs. Beck and two or three: of the other witnesses had been placed at the window of Dr. Deane's chambers in Doctors'-commons, and it was agreed that when Ciocci came near the clerk of Mr. Bathurst, the proctor, should raic his hit, and then the witnesses of course would say, " Oh, that's he." The mode in which this decree was executed was alone sufficient to upset the evidence of Mrs. Beek, who was evidently mis taken in her identity of the rerson who had visited Polly Miller at Brighton. Then it was pleaded as an additional article to the libel, that one night, about the middle of March last, when this cause was in course of vigorous prose cation, Ciocci visited Miller at her lodging, 17, Marshall street, Go!den, square, and there slept with her, talking with her throat the suit, and Baying lie should beat them if sh (Miller) would stick to him. The sole witness in sup port. of this extraordinary and incredible statemeut, :made so openly by a man who was described as "sly," was a com mon prostitute named Mary Ann Hadley, who in her evi dence declared that she was first asked to become a witnessby Edser in the middle of March, just alter the circumstance to which she had deposed, and yet afterwards she alleged " the fist interview I had with Ether was on the 23rd of February," which day he could positively fix, because it washer birthday, and upon that occasion she told him what had occurred in the month of March, just one month after wards! Again, Hadley was interrogated upon the sums of money she had received, and said she had received only three half-sovereigns for her services. Now, Edser in his evidence stated, that Hadley was pod at the rate of U. per week, and a little wearing apparel was given to her besides. After such contradictions as these, he (Dr. Addams) thought tae court must not only view this evidence with discredit, but must view with disapprobation the insertion in the libel of such an article of IICCUSItIOII, resting as it did upon the uncorroborated testimony of a woman lake this. Perhaps, however, the grossest conspiracy against the de fendant was developed iu the case of Panay Alexander. He denied that ever there was such a letter in existence as was described to have been written by Ciocci to Alexander, and the persons who procured evidence of the existence of this letter he pronounced guilty of subornation of perjury. The girl swore that Ciocci asked her to accompany him before a magistrate, and instructed her to deny that ho hail ever had improper connexion with her. This was en the 2nd of November, 1852, and the citation was not taken out until the January following. It was not to be supposed that Ciocci then knew of the contemplated suit against him. Who, then, had accused defendant of what he was alleged as being at that time so anxious to deny ? Was a man to be attacked in purse and character by such trash es this ? Again, Alexander declared that also had not received or been promised any reward for her evidence—that she had no expectation of benefit either directly or indirectly from the sums/ of Mrs. Ciocci in this cause. Now, it appeared from Hdaer's evidence that Owen had already paid Alex ander 30,. in all—that the girl hail been residing in custody at Boxmoor for some seven months with a Miss Jones, who had been paid no less a sum than 801. for her board and lodging, and that Alexander had been promised a guinea a week during the time she had been resident at Boxmoor. Yet a woman who had so contradicted herself was to be admitted as a witness in this ease, and allowed to come for ward and convict Ciocci of adultery ! As to the story of the journey in the cab taken by Ciocci and Alexander on the 2nd of November, 1852, the facts were, that the de• (cadent and the girl had gone together as described, first to 10, Cadogan-place, the residence of Mr. Burgess, the rector inf Upper Chelsea, and afterwards to the police-station at Rochester-row, but it was utterly untrue that the girl re turned to Ciocei'm lodgings. The cab-driver, West, had not been called to contradict the statements of Owen and Heir ' sey on this poiut, because it was believed he had been tampered with by the opposite party. Dr. Phillimore said he was instructed to give an unquali fied denial to that statement, nod to say they had never seen er heard of the cab driver in question. Dr. Addams continued—Owen swore that he traced this Alexander in the cab into the lodgings of Cioeci upon the 2nd of November, and that on her coming out again he followed her to her house in Westminster, and ascertained who she was. Coupling this with the testimony of Ether, who com plained over and over again that Owen had been alone time in finding oat Alexander, the learned advocate contended that the whole of the story was an invention, and that Alexander was not found till long after the period stated, and that then the talc bad been cooked up. This part of the case, he urged, showed the whole character of the con spiracy which had been got up, end the filthy perjury which had been committed. Throughout the whole proceedings there was nothing whatever to impeach the conduct of Ciocci. Defendant had distributed tracts in connexion with the Female Aid Society; Alexander herself owned that he tried to induce her to reform, and the whole story of her return to his lodgings was contradicted by Patriarchi. The examination of the girl was taken down in writing by this person, and there was no pretence for the assertion that the paper containing her answers to the questions put by him was a fabricated one. In regard to the searching out of the facts respecting Gaadaleta, the whole m►tter was explained very much to CIOC2OI credit by his desire that a person should be appointed to the Italian ministry whose abilities and character were unquestionable. Such a suit as this ought never to have been instituted, and he was sato , oohed that any mem►er of his profession cauld have forced i on the case to its present stage. Dr. Twiss followed on the same side, and had not con ' eluded hie arguments when, at 4 o'clock, The case was adjourned until Saturday, at 11. COURT OF BANXIWPTCY.—TEsTEILDAY. 1111'01.1 MIL 00111111INO.11111 rassumwr.. THE COMMISSION OF INQUIRE INTO THE PRACTICE OF THE COCENS. The commissioners appointed to conduct this inquiry, at the head of whom is Mr. Walpole, the late Home Secre tary, are prosecuting their labours with as much vigilance as their other manifold engagements will permit. A few days ago, the Tynes put forth a vague statement of what were said to be the objects of the inquiry, and which it opined would prove of immense interest to the commercial world. We are enabled to lay before the public romet'iing afore definite. A series of questions has been forwarded to the leading pre festienal men in these courts, as well as to the commissioners and the higher officers of the courts, with the intimation that their opinion is desired on the several points included in the inquiries. They are divided under three heads, and arc as follow : " 1. Revenue, expenses, establishment, and business of the court. To what, in your opinion, is to he attributed th e diminution in the business o f ! the court, and of the fees and funds applicable to the payment of its expenses? Do you think, and for what reasons, that the present insufficiency of the funds of the court to meet its expenses is likely to be permanent or not ?

A DIGNIFIED POSKER.—A friend of ours in Ire land paid a visit to a neighbouring cottage after the hours of work were over, and there, as he expected, found the master of the house walking briskly up and down in the rays of the setting sun ; he was followed by an unwieldy pig, which turned with him as he paced to and fro. An inquiry into his companionship elicited the following reply, given with the quiet earnestness of a man who feels that he is simply performing one of his daily duties, without a thought of its being in any way a singular sue :—" Sure, y'r honour, and the erayter dosn't have his health without the exercise ; and it isn't all alone by himself that he will take his walk, and he's grown too proud to walk with the ehilder now."—Dttedth University Magazine.

WORSHIP-STREET. JoAn Harlon, an athlet.c middle aged man, wee charged before AI:. D'Eyncourt with a aeries of brutal and aggra vated assault!. Thomas Payne, a jobbing shoemaker, in Old Caszle striet, Bethnal-green, stated that he was married to the sister of the prisoner, whom he had occasionally employed to assist him in his business. At a late hone on the pre vious night the prisoner called at his house in a state of in sosication, and bunting into the room in which he was seated, demanded payment for the last work he had done for him. Witness replied that if he called again at a reaw.nable hour on the following day, he would pay him the money, which amounted only to Bd. ; but the prisoner insisted upon an immediate settlement, and after assailing him with the foulest epithets, struck him a violent blow in the face, which blackened his eye as it now appeared. The prisoner followed up the attack by a heavy blow on the side of the head, which knocked him down, and before be could recover his feet, be flung himself upon him, and declaring that he would do for him at once, grasped bold of his neck, and compressed his throat with so much violence that he was almost strangled. On observing his perilous position, the wife of witness, who was in an advanced state of pregnancy, in stantly ran forward, and was endeavouring to drag the prisoner away, when he commenced a furious attack upon her, and knocked her dowa five times in succession. After striking her down on the last occuioa, the prisoner made a disgusting allusion to her pregnant condition, and repeatedly struck her with all his force upon the stomach, at the same time assailing her with threats and imprications of a t hor rible description. Their cries of " murder" and " police" at length attracted the attention of some of their neikh hours, who hastened to their assistance, and rescued them from further ill-treatment, and after a severe contest, the prisoner was ultimately secured and given into custody. Jane Payne, the wise of the last witness, who appeared is such a dreadful state of suffering that she was scarcely able to articulate fully, confirmed the evidence of her hus band, and added that she had been ever since in excru ciating paia trom the effects of the savage violence of the prisoner, and, as she was within a short period of her con finement, the most serious consequences might result from the brutal treatment to which she had been subjected. Mr. D'Eyncourt ordered the prisoner to pay a penalty of St, or to be committed in default for two months to the House of Correction, for the assault upon kis brother-in law, in addition to which he should sentence him to be im prisoned and kept to hard labour for the further term of four months for his unnatural violence to his sister. CLERK EN WELL. James ArGregor, a young man smartly dressed, who was recognised as being a swell =lnman, was charged with attempting to commit robberies at the Great Northern Railway Station, King's-cross. On Monday afternoon last, the prisoner was observed by Fisher, a detective, attempting to pick a lady's pocket. On the arrival of the train from York, he took up a port manteau, and was about to go away with it, but ho was seised by thelefficer, and conveyed to the station-house. On his road thither the prisoner said to Fisher " I suppose we can settle this business on the quiet. I don't mind a dragger, I'd rather do that than spout you in the court. Several pocket books, and other property were found in his posses. eion, which had no doubt been the produce of robberies- The term "dragger" signifies, it seems, three months' im prisonment, with hard labour. The prisoner, who said nothing in his defence, was sen tenced to that imprisonment. The sum of 10/. has been forwarded to the poor-boa of this court, by a benevolent donor, under the initials " C.D." MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Wm. E. Clarke was charged with having assaulted Police-constable Martin, C division, and with being drunk. Mr. Bingham was about to hear the charge, when an ap plication was made to him by one of the officials of the Paving Board of St. James's for the charge to be allowed to stand over, as the case involved circumstances in which the Commissioners of Paving took an interest, and it would be advisable to have them apprised of the proceedings. Mr. Bingham consented to put back the case for an hour, by which time several of the Paving Board Commis sioners were in court. The constable said about half-put eleven o'clock the pre vious night be saw the defendant drunk in Windmill-street with a book and pencil in his hand. The defendant came up to him, and said he should take his number, and other wise made much disturbance. He told the defendant to go home, but the defendant still continued to make a disturb ance, and told Dim he had been *ant by Mr. Yorke, one of the paving -board officials, to watch the proceedings of the police. Witness again urged the defendant to go home quietly, but the defendant would not take this advice, and the defendant having seized him by the wrist, and scratched the part, witness took him to the station-house. Police-constable C 190 said when the defendant' was brought to the station-house, he was very drunk, and used very foul language. Inspector Illahony said the defendant was as drunk as he well could be. The first witness said when he first saw the defendant, he Wm with fire or six loose women, with his book out. When first told to go home, he told witness he would fetch Mr. Yorke to him. _ _ Mr. Bidgood, one of the Paving Commissioners, said what he had to state to the bench might possibly induce a dif ferent view of tho case. The Inhabitants had expressed much dissatisfaction at the conduct of the police in the dis trict, and had made a complaint to the commissioners in Scotland-yard on the subject. The answer had not been such as to do away with the grounds of dissatisfaction, and accordingly the board of Paving Commissioners had em ployed the defendant, who had been strongly recommended to thous as a man of probity, respectability, and sobriety, to collect statistic, spinet the police for ulterior purposes. The mission of the defendant had somehow become known to the police, and the defendant had in consequence been subjected to a good deal of obstruction and annoyance. It was not, therefore, unlikely that the present charge had something to do with the fact of the employment of the defendant by the board. lle would not go so far as to say that the charge had been trumped up, but certainly he thought the court might very well conceive that the evi dence had been exaggerated by the police. Mr. Bingham had only to consider whether the evidence was sufficient to establish the charge of drunkenness against this very respectable person, employed by the Paving Board to get up evidence against the police. The charge of drunkenness had been substantiated on the oath of a police constable of good character, supported by other con stables, and by the inspector on duty. He was therefore of opinion that the charge of drunkenness was proved, and the defendant must therefore j.ey the drunkard's tine of five shillings. Mr. Bidgood said the board would pay the fine. SOUTHWARK. Georgenusey, a labourer,wu brought before Mr. Comb*, charged with embessling 31. 65., the monies of his master, Henry Noakes, a potato salesman at Rochester and the Borough-market. The prosecutor deposed that he sent the prisoner •.0 the Borough-market with a load of potatoes for sale last week, with strict order, to bring the money back, and give a pro per account of them. Instead of doing so he put the money in his pocket, and left the horse and cart in the stable near the Borough-market, and ahseonded with the money. He was eventually apprehended at Maidstone, and transferred to Rochester, when the magistrate directed him to be brought to th is court. Mr. Combs, asked whether the prosecutor had ascertained to whom the prisoner had sold the potatoes ? The prosecutor replied that he had, but the witnesses were not in attendance. The manor, who acknowledged his crime, was accord ingly remanded for a week to enable the prosecutor to pro- Glm his witnesses. Thomas Risharditon and John Warr, two notorious burglars, were brought up for final examination on &charge of burglary, and breaking into the dwelling-house of Mr. W. Williams, a retired tradesman, in New Kent•road, and stealing therefrom a quantity of plate and other property. There wu else a second charge of felony, but they were committed only upon the first.

The arrivals bare been large, but as a Call• siderable portion was sold previously, the stock has not accumulated.

Jersey at 4,12} dole.; brandywine is scarce and nominally as lest quoted. GlAIN.—The wheat market opened scarcely so firm on Weinesday, and on the common descriptions, which arc plenty, some decline was submittal to, while prime samples which are scarce, are supported.

Fsintowrs, previous to the arrival of the steamer, were dull ; but the market, since her advices were received (by telegraph), has become firmer again. To France there has been less going, owing to the high rates demanded. There is a demand for vessels, but owners ask high prices. To California there is less offering, but the number of vessels loading being sm►ll, rates are sustained.

Mersey yoiterd..y att-rnoon for Melbourne, with a very large number of emigrants on board, every berth being ooeupied. She is commanded by Captain McDonnell, who was chief .Dicer during her cele brated voyages—Capt. Forbes haviag been appointed to the Thunderbolt, now building at Boston. Cuntous.—Amoug the passengers by the Brazilian mail packet 'r..y, which left Soutlimapton yesterday, was a family who arrived from New York in the Humboldt on Saturday last to proceed to 'Ho de Janeiro in the Tay. It is curious that the quickest and most convenient way of reaching Brazil from the United States is by way of }mg land, and that passengers from North America have to cross and recrosa the Atlantic to got to South America. TUE Saar or WAR.—In order to understand in FOl3lO slight measure the present aspect of affairs in the East, it has become necessary to abandon the shifting and deceptive scenes of diplomacy for the realities of a military campaign. One of the moot powerful arguments of the believers in a pacific settlement by ambassadors or plenipo. tentiaries was, that the climate and the soil of the Danubian Principalities would preclude the possibility of immediate hostilities between the Russians and the Turks. Moldavia and Wallachia are visited in the autumn by violent storms of rain, which soak the loose and heavy ground, and ren der it impracticable for carts, artillery, or men. The rivers, swollen by these autumn falls, become impassable, and the marshy groucds of the lower Danube arc in lakes of muddy water. By a curious turn of sevens the autumn rains have not come down this year. the ProviLces are dry, sod the Danube is so low that the ordinary mouths are closed to every sort of traffic. The warlike spirit of the Turks has thus been served by Providential droughts, and diplomacy been worsted by the weather.—Leeds Times.
