IRELAND. - • -- Draux. Dzc. 5. Serious riots have taken place in Sligo , for the purpose of presenting the exportation of potatoes trout that port to England. The Sligo Journal gives the following account of the proceedings, from which it will be perceived that the riote rs succeeded in their object : Mr. West, of Carter's), having a large quantity of pota toes of his own produce, purposed shipping them on Monday morning, and the carts conveying them had arrivid at the rob Market, whea a mob, who had been awaiting their arrival under Mr. Martin's mill, sallied out end endea voured to turn them, but the police consiag up, prevented the execution of tine plan, after a struce:e, in which some hard knocks were exchanged. The carts proceeded, amid the yelliag and hentiag of th e c row d, towards the Ballast Bank, and it required the most strenuous efforts of the police to repel the repeated attacks made by toe mob. On arriving at tie Ballast Batik, the crowd gained a considerable accession to its numbers, and there seemed to Ors • settled determination en the part of the roob to present the shipping of the potatoes at any hazard. losroe planks, wheelbarrows, empty egg boxes and crates were quickly thrown together, and • regular barricade formed to intercept the corm. The polio were ordered to fix bayonet., and Head Cosa:able Power warned the people of the danger of penistiog in their o;.pessition; but they still pen;sted, and some parties had their clothes pierced by the bayonets of the constabulary. At this juncture some persons behind the shed commenced to fling stones, and the position of the police was becoming every mom at more dangerous. The stones fell as thick as hail, std several of the men were struck, while the mob renewed their attack on the carts. Under these circum stances Head Constable Power, who acted all through with e .urage and forbearance, ordered the police to load, but Mr. West interfered, and intimated his intention of returning with the potatoes. This was hailed by tho mob with loud cheers, and they accompanied the carts through the streets, shouting vociferously. Oa Tuesday the drivers of two tarts loaded with potatoes, belonging, we believe, to Mr. Munson, Knox'retreet, were very roughly handled, and threats were held out against the owner if he persisted in exporting. We understood that • regularly organised body of spies are kept constantly watching those parties who wis h to export their own produce, and that • subscription has been set on foot among the humbler classes to support them. A case of considerable interest to railway com panies was brcught to a conclusion in the Court of Common Pleas on Saturday evening; Mr. Henry Anderson, a well-known horse-dealer of this city, being the plaintiff, and the Chester and Holyhead Railway Company defendants, and the action being ono for an alleged breach of contract, by which the plaintiff stated that he had sustained considerable damage through injury to fifteen horses which the defendants had contracted to convey for him in horse boxes on their line within a specified time. On Mr. Anderson's arrival in Holyhead with the horses he found that there were no boxes ready for him to go on with his horses, nor were there any to be had until a late train, the result of which was that he did not reach Shrewsbury (his destination) until four o'clock on the morning of the fair, when it was found that the horses, which were very valuable (and varied in price from 301. to 601.), were all more or less deteriorated from fatigue, &c., and were con sequently not in good saleable order. The al leged deterioration in the value of the horses was considerable, and the loss sustained by the plaintiff was from 2001. to 4001. at the very lowest calculation. On the part of the defendants it was contended that the railway company never undertook to con vey those horses except on the usual terms they con veyed everything which was carried, " subject to unavoidable accidents and delays." They no doubt were paid for carrying Mr. Anderson's horses, and would have sent them on by the nine o'clock a.m. train on the 29th February if they could, but they had not the means. A special contract was relied on to convey them by that particular train ; but it was con tended that no such contract was ever entered into, and the receipt given to the plaintiff for the money he paid stated on the back of it the condition, namely, that they conveyed them subject to acci dental delays. The cow occupied the court during two days, and at a late hour on Saturday evening the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff for 2301. damages and lid. costs. There has been a fair business in produce this week, but no degree of briskness. The Stock and Share Markets have been very dull and depressed, and the same may bo said of the Corn Market, which gave way materially on Friday. The weather has been damp and foggy through the week. From the country accounts are good, and the farmers are in a better position than for a long time past. Trade is here on a healthy footing, and we do not anticipate any bad results from the apparently increasing money pressure, as far as our mercantile circles are concerned.

JAZYWAR.—PAAAPHZUNALIA AND FAMILY JIWILL This was a dais by Lady Jervoise. of Brook House, Lewisham, widow of tkit late Rey. Sir S a muel Clarke Jer- WM!, that she be declared to be entitled, absolutely fer her owe. use, to certain jewels. . . . . It epigram! that - the claimant was 'serried to her late husband in 1799, and shortly sfter the marriage her uncle's wife, Mrs. Ann Clarke, gave to her a set of pearl orna ments, which she cause d to be reset. She paid for the re setting out of her own money, and always seed and treated them as her own property. In 1813 Sir Samuel C. Jervoise bought Lady Jervoise a diamond bracelet, gad shortly after wards, observing that " the other arm looked jades's," he purchased another. These bracelets, as well as the pearl ornaments, Lady Jervoise was in the habit of wearing at parties, and treating them as her awn property ; and besides these, there were family jewels, which she wore only at court and on state octagons. Sir S. C. Jervoise died in October, 18.52, and by hie will he bequeathed to his wife, beside. other 'bier, the use, dune' her life, of all his jewels. Under this clause it was contended by the trustees under the will that Lady Ji rune, had no interest in any of the jewels, further than the use of them for life. Lady Jervoise, how ever, considered that she was entitled to the pearl orna ments and the diamond bracelets absolutely, and this claim was filed to have that question determined. On the part of Lady Jervoise, an affidavit had been Bled deposing to the above facts as to the acquisition and use of the jewels, end to a declaration made by the testator in May, 18.52, when he went into Lady Jervoise's room, and saying to her, " I shall give you the bracelets," he gave her the receipt of Itundell and Bridge for the price of the bracelets-3981. His lloooor said he did not think the transaction last named amounted to a gift of the bracelets, nor did the family jewels belong to Lady Jervoise ; bat he considered that Lady Jervoise was entitled to the jewels she claimed. That she had a right to the pearl ornaments there could be no doubt, they were the gift of another person to her, and he was of opinion also that she was entitled to the fiance.' lets, which were acquired during coverture. They were paraphernalia suitable to het tank in life, and it was in evidence that they were bought by the husband for the adornment of his wife, and that he allowed her to make use of them constantly, and it did not appear that they were bought to form a poi , tien of, or to be connected with, the family jewels. There must be a declaration therefore that Lady Jervoise was absolutely entitled to the pearl ornaments and the bracelets. The costs to come out of the estate. Mr. Olasse appeared la support of the claim, and Mr. Baines for the treeless. ST. JOHN r. RAISTIHN STAB. The plaintiff in this suit was Mr. Percy Beliogbroks St. John, the well-known author, and the defendant was Pericles Rostopulos Aleaandrides. The suit having been instituted, this was a motion for an injunction to restrain the defendant from selling the type used in printing the Eastern Star, a newspaper r•cently established is London for the purpose of advocating the independence of the Greeks in the Turkish dominions. The motion also asked that the defendant might be restrained,from interfering with the publication of the above newspaper. The defendant did not appear, although he had been served with notice of the motion. The court made the owder. LINIIS. This was the petition of Mr. Henry Lines, whom peti tion stated the following extraordinary story :—Several years ego the petitioner purchased two sums of 1131. and 1111. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cent. Annuities, but the petitioner wished to conceal the transaction from his wife, and he, therefore, nadir the purchase in the name of Wil liam Frederick Cannon, of Kirton, Hertfordshire, an entirely fictitious name, Si the petition alleged. The petitioner received one dividend upon one of the sums, bat all the other dividends remained unpaid for the space of 10 years, and the sums had therefore been transferred into the names of the Commissimers for the Reduction of the National Debt. Loder these circumstances, supported by his affidavit, Mr. Linea prayed that the two sums might be transferred into his name, and the dividends be paid to him. Mr. 0. M. Giffard was is support of the petition. Mr. Wickens, for the Comaissionen for the Redaction of the National Debt, stated that it not 'infrequently hap pened that a claimant having seccecded in =Wag out an apparent title to a sum transferred into the commissioners' name', other claimants subsequently established • good title and were paid, and thus the public was defrauded. In the present ease, he submitted that the court ought not to accede to the prayer of the petition without • previous in quiry into the extraordinary circumstances. The petition was ordered to stand over, with the direction that an inquiry should be made whether there was any such perms as William Frederick Cannon, of Hertfordshire, with a general inquiry into the circumstances.

Slade and I Mr. Coles represented the defendant. This was au action brought to recover damages for a libel alleged to be captained in a letter written by the defendant to a surgeon named Britten, in which he called the plain tiff " a liar, scoundrel, and coward." The defendant pleaded not guilty and justification. It appeared that many years ago the plaintiff, whoa is en attorney, had paid his attentions to the defendant's deter, and, as he stated. had lammed various expense@ upon her ac , oeuat.such as having bee 'Ware taken and jiving her a wed. I ding ring. Bhe had afterwards at the ego of le gone to India and had married Captain Bartley, whose acquaintance she had formed on the pelage oat. Oa Mrs. Bartley 's return to England, the plaintiff had made a claim of NOL oa her, and had published a pamphlet respecting her, upon which Captain Bartley, accompanied by his wife@ father, went to the plaintiff's residence at Bath, and horsewhip d him. Upon Captain Bartle 's death, his widow awried Colonel Ferrier, a retired officer of the East India Company's ser vice, to whom than plaintiff bad written, a ft er the lapse of several years, renewing hie demand, w hich ultimately was reduced to lent. It was in consequence of this application that the defendant had written the alleged libel. The plaintiff called the defendant to prove the publication of the libel, and himself gave evidence of the rest of the feats. In crow-examination the plaintiff said he had first thought of making a claim of 2001. against Miss Day when he wanted money. (Laughter.) He had never asked her father or mother for repayment. When their acquaintance began the young lady was 16, and he was 28. He was now 68. Ho had published • pamphlet relating to Miss Caroline Day, in consequence of which Captain Bartley and Mr. Day had visited him at Bath. They had asked him to come out of his house and get horsewhipped, but he stayed indoors be cause Captain Bartley and Mr. Day were about four times his weight. He had gone in pursuit of them. He had written to Captain Bartley, end had poed him in the Bath Pump-room for his " blackguard visit. " That was all the satisfaction he had. He first applied to Colonel Ferrier in 1847. The libel was written in November, 1848. Mr. Slade addressed the jury for the defendant, con tending that the epithets applied by him to the plaintiff wire really merited. Lord Campbell, in summing up, characterised the claim of the plaintiff as an infamous demand made for the pur pose of extorting money. He was astonished that any one should have written such a letter as that which he had written to Colonel Ferrier, and still more woodshed that having written it he should dare to show his face in a court of justice. The jury, without hesitation, returned a verdict for the defendant ; sod regretted the time of the court should have been taken up with sash a case. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.-YESTERDAY.

Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Beueymea appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Serjeant Byles for the defendants. The defendants live in Park-street, Bethaal-green, and the plaintiff was formerly in their employ es a *errant of all work. On the 4th March last, the plaintiff was cleaving a room, when Mn. Groom called her, and after some delay she went. Mrs. Groom said she did not want her then, and pushed her away. The plaintiff fell down and broke her wrist, and the injury was so serious that she had at tended at the hospita l for sin month., and was not now able to do her ordinary work; and, indeed, the doctor said she would probably be able to do some kinds of work, such as washing for instaace. The plaintiff and her witnesses were cross-examined to show that Mrs. Groom was a woman advanced in years and infirm, and that she had only put her hand upon the plaintiff, without any intention to push her, and that she by accident fell. Mrs. Groom, however, when called was not in court to give evidence for the defense. The jury found • verdict for the plaintiff.—Damages 251.

IN BB WESTBROOK. _ The bankrupt, Richard Westbrook, was described as a haydealer, of Laurie-terrace, New. eras, Deptford, having been made bankrupt in that character through his connexion with the Islington Cattle Market. The case has been already before the court on more than one Occasion, the adjudication having been disputed by a creditor, on the grated that the bankrupt was not a trader within the mean ing of the act. The trading being established to the satis faction of the court, the case proceeded in the ordinary way, and this was the sitting appointed for the last eland. nation of the bankrupt. The preparation of the accounts was confided to Messrs. Hart Brothers, and they extend over four and a half years prior to the 23rd of September last, the date of the adjudication. The balance-sheet ex hibits the (*firming items:— Dr.—To sundry creditors, 1,3001. ; profits on trading 7531.; due from Widows' and Geseral Assurance Associa tion (as a director), 2001. ; received as wife's portion, 4,0001.; from mother-in-law, 1,3501. ; from Islington Cattle Market and Abattoir Company, 1,3001. ; liabilities, 36,6501. Cr.—By amount due from assurance aasociation, 2001. ; property, 501.; paid as deposit on the purchase of the Isling ton Cattle Market and Abattoir Company, 3,1001. ; repairs, alterations and other expenses, 8021.; house and personal ditto, 3,2001. ; deficiency on the 24th March, 1849, 1,4201. ; liabilities (as per contra), 36,8501. To the property sheet appears the following memorandum : "In March 1849, I purchased the Islington Cattle Market for the sum of 85,000!., 23,0001. of which was to be paid in cash, and the 82,0001. to remain on mortgage. I sold the market to the company for 105,0001. I bad paid a deposit on the purchase of 3,0001., and it was agreed that I was to receive 6,0001. in cash, which I did, and 18,0001. in shame, 1,780 of which are in the hands of my official assignee; the ether 40 I gave to Mrs. Fox, as I owed her 4001. at that time. In 1852, Perkins's executors, the mortgagees, end ed to sell the mortgage, but could not succeed, in consequence of its beiag reported that there was a flaw in the title. The company then petitioned the Court of Chancery to have the title decided. lam also entitled to a sum of money from the above company for my attendance as a director—l should say about 6001." The liability creditors comprise Mr. Samuel Adams, banker, of Ware (the gentleman who disputed the adjudi natio.), the European Life Insurance Company, Mr. A. G. Pooley, of Nicholas-lane, the Royal British Bank, the Shropshire Banking Company, and the Union Bank of London—all on promissory notes for large amounts. The bankrupt adds, in an explanatory note,—" On all these promissory notes I am jointly liable as a director with the other directors of the Is lington Cattle Market and Abattoir Company, namely, J. 8. R. Clark, J. Cheatham, H. A. Harrison, F. W. Hamilton, H. Kirk, W. Shaw, and A. B. Wall." The trading account contains the following items :—To wages, 4591. ; balance (profit), 7531. ; total, 1,2121. By lairage account, 3461. ; fodder do., 4331. ; rent do., 4334 ; total, 1,2121. Mr. Nicholson, the official assignee, reported as follows : "Of the f,3001. returned as due to creditors, 1,1501. is stated to be for cash lent, and 1501. for law aspen's. No entries are made in any book of the bankrupt's of these amounts, neither has any account of them been furnished to me. The liabilities arise entirely from the connection of the bankrupt with the Islington Cattle Market and Abattoir Company, in which company he appears to have been a director. The liabilities upon bills which appear to have bean discounted for the benefit of the company amount to 35,9441. 31. 44. The liability upon running unman is 70.51. 17s. 4d. The profits, returned at 7531., relate to the business carried on by the bankrupt from March, 1849, to March, 1860, at which period the company (in respect of which so heavy an amount of liability arises) was com menced ; the profits are vouched. The expenses relating to the business carried oa from 1849 to 1860 amount to the sum of 4521., and are vouched. The bankrupt charges the sum of 3011. as interest, which he states be has paid to his mother-in-law. There is nothing whatever produced to me to vouch these payments. The house and personal expenses are charged at 7001. per annum, and amount to 3,2001. No voucher of any kind is produced to support this item. The bankrupt returns the sum of 2001. u due to him from the Widows' and General Assurance Association. Upon appli cation to that company they have paid me the sum of 901. 10s. 6d., and state that nothing more is due. In the cash account the bankrupt charges himself with the sum of 10,6501. as the amount received by him during the period which this Wanes-shut extends over. He Molines a this sum in the following manner:—Cash paid to Harm= and Son, 4001.; to Noton, 1501. ; to Wall, 60/. ; deposit on the purchase of the Islington Cattle Market, 3,1001.; paid Kr. Shaw, 500/. ; Laurie and Co., 1,3001.; Armstrong and Co., 1,3001. ; B. Kirk, 6501.; house and personal expenses. and medical attendance, 3,2001. No voucher of any kind has been produced to me in support of any of the above payments. •- Mr. Lawrence, for the bankrupt, asked that he should Mr. Harris, on behalf of the snivels, said he wished to examine the bankrupt. The Commissioner—Are any of the creditors here ? Bankrupt—No, sir. I owe nothing beyond the liabilities in respect of the market. The Commissioner—Nothing ? Do you call 1,3001. nothing ? It is rather a large amount. The bankrupt deposed that on the death of his father-in law he left property to be equally divided between his two daughters. The entire sum was 20,0001. stock. Mrs. Cum ming, his mother. in-law, had allowed him 3001. a year. She had resided with him for the last 40 years. When he wanted to raise the 4,0001. to pay the deposit on the market he ap plied to the trustees, and with their Imogene stock to that amount was sold out. Either Mr. Tyrell or Moms. Armstrong and Westbrook were the solicitors employed. Exactly 4,0001. was raised, for which he and his wife gave, a release to the trustees. His wife had no other property than he had stated. On the death of Mrs. Cumming, in 1851, his sister-In-law's interest was transferred to new trus tees. The property in which his wife was interested was all gone. His sistarin-law continued him the allowance of 300/. a year after Mr.. Cumming's death. The C.mmi=er—l confess I do not like this account at all. He charges himself with cash to the amount of 10,8501., and there is not a single voucher to show how this has been disbursed. Mr. Harris said it appeared a bill of 5,0501. had been die counted for the Cattle Market Company, and the proceeds divided amongst Mr. Westbrook and five other directors. That was so strange a transaction, that some explanation ought to be given of it. Bankrupt professed himself ready to give the necessary explanations. His Honour said he certainly could not peas an account so utterly abed , even for the household expenditure of 3,2001. there was not a single voucher. Mr. Lawrence submitted that many of the items, to the extent of at least 7,0001., might be vouched on application to the parties to whom they were represented to have been paid. Bankrupt—Ne doubt of it. His Honour recommended Mr. Westbrook to go carefully through the accounts, item by item, and supply all the vouchers in his power, so as to satisfy not only the court, but the creditors. There must be en adjournment for that purpose. The bankrupt, as a man of business and probity, must make it his own concern, and supply all the informa tion he possibly could. It was a pity this was not done in the first instance. The bankrupt said be could have supplied a great many vouchers, had he known that they would be required. Ultimately the examination was adjourned fur a month. Mr. Hams said the directors of the Widows' and Gene ral Life Assurance Association denied that there was any such sum es 200/. due to the bankrupt. A sum had been allotted to him, which they coasidered a full equivalent for his services. His Honour said the matter must be inquired into, and a full explanation given in the subsequent accounts.

The Court thought it was a colourable affair, and deferred judgment to settle. Adjuurned for a week. 81:RISTTSHIPS. Two insolvents applied under the Protection Act. They had been surety for other penons. One said he did it as a matter of kindness. Mr. Commissioner Phillips told him that as a matter of duty he could not give him protection. Both cases were adjourned sine die. IN RI SAML ILL INSULL. This insolvent, who petitioned under the Protection Act as a trader, was described as a " dairyman." lie said he bought and sold milk. Mr. Commissioner Phillips said that by the bankrupt law a " milkman " was a trader, and " dairyman " was not mentioned. He should dismiss the petition that the insol• vent might be described as a milkman. The same proceed ings would be used, and protection granted on the filing of the new petition."' MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—YESTERDAY. The sittings of the court for the November Adjourned Session were resumed this morning at the Guildhall, West minster, before Mr. Berjesnt Adams, Assistant-Judge, and • full bench of magistrates. There were bat 43 prisoners for trial, the whole of whom, with the exception of one, were indicted for felony. The Assistant-Judge, in charging the grand jury, re marked on the inutility of the grand jury system, and that income cases grand juries were *ores then u.eless. As on Mottoes of thee, he would mention that at the last sespion a roan was committed for trial for a most brutal us.ult on his wife, and the grand jury threw out the bill because, he had little doubt, the true facts of the ease were riot ' fore them. The wife, probably very anxious to get her' husband off, told them that he did not hurt her and that he was always kind and good to her, and as the grand jury had no means of ascertaining the truth, they believed what she said and ignored th e bill. If the ease tad come direct to the court for trial, instead of being first submitted to the grand jury, the result might have been very different, for the woman would not have dared to tell such falsehoods when the court had before it her deposition taken by the magistrate. &MIMI Gill, 38, was indicted for stealing a crown piece, the money of William Wykes, his master. The prosecutor was a publican in the New road, and the prisoner was his barman. In consequence of suspicion as to his honesty, the prosecutor mulled some money, and got a friend to visit the house early one morning and make a purchase. A crown sad two halterowns were marked, and on the till being examined after the purchase, which amounted to about fourteen shillings, was made, the crown wee not there. The prisoner made several false statements, and a police officer found the missing marked coin in a carpet bag belonging to him. The presumption was that the coin did not get into the till at all, but wu purloined when taken Over the counter. The jury Coned the prisoner Guilty. The Assistant Judge, oader the powers of a recent act, ordered the verdict to be recorded as guilty of embezzle ment, and not gsilty of larceny—as laid in the indictment. His own opinion was that it was a case of anbezzlessint, but he would reserve the point for the Court of Criminal Appal, whether, upon the evidence, the offence was em bezzlement or larceny. The pri•ooer was then remanded for judgment. Henry Devine, convicted last session, and remanded, in order that inquiry might be made as to the state of his mind, was brought up for judgment. The following certiticate was put in : I hereby certify that I have carefully examined Henry Devine sines he has been in this prison. Twice be has been attacked with apparent convulsions, producing contortion of countenance, with temporary aberration of mind. I have witnessed these two se'.artres, bat I am of opinion they were both simulated, and I do not consider him of unsound mind. "HaellY WAKEFIELD. Surgeon.

The court now santamead to be kept to hard labour for one year. THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 6, 1853. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION HOUSE. George 11. Small, a yonag man, who was described in the police sheet as an author, was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having stolen a great coat in " His Lordship's Larder," In Cheapsidc. The investigation into the circumstance* of the ease, which was one of rather a peculiar character, luted a con siderable time. John Beeves, waiter in the " Larder," said—On Wed nesday evening the prisoner was dining at the house, and stayed there upwards of two hours. He then got up and said he would go outside to see whether it rained. He came in again, but instead of sitting where he sat before, took a seat in the middle of the room, took up a paper, a n d continued some minutes longer. I then saw him delibe rately.get up, take a great coat from off the nail over the place in which he was sitting, place it on his arm, walk up to the desk, to settle for what he bad had, bid Mr. Jon e s, th e proprietor, " good night," and walk away. Two er three minutes afterwards a gentleman came out of a box for his great coat, and made inquiries of me, and I told him the prisoner had taken a great coat from the nail he pointed at. I have heard that the prisoner is an author. Cress-examined by Mr. Garry, for the prisoner —I did not see the prisoner hang up the coat, neither did I see him enter the dining-room. I had no suspicion that the coat was not the prisoner's own. He has brew in the habit of coming to our house for some months. Metropolitan policeman (N 151) said—At a quarter pest seven on Saturday evening the prisoner was given into my custody in Cavendish-street, New North-road, Hoaton, and taken to the station-house, where the charge was read over to him. He said he knew nothing at all about the coat, and I then went to his lodgings with another officer and Mr. Jones, the proprietor of His Lordship's Larder." The address the prisoner had given at the station-house ; and in the back parlour, under a bed, my brother officer found the ' pair of gloves produced in my presence. There is a mark on the thumb of one of the gloves. Mr. J. D. Jones said—l keep " His Lordship's Larder." On Wednesday afternoon I saw the prisoner enter the house without a great coat. He has never worn a great coat since he has visited my house, but always a brown body coat which he now has on. He left my house about six o'clock, and bade me good night, and went away with a coat on his arm, without, I believe, paying me. Two or three minutes afterwards the waiter spoke to me upon the subject, and that called to my mind the circumstance of having seen him with a great coat on his arm, as I had seen him wear • great coat. &boot five weeks previously the pri soner had introduced himself to me u the author of a poem called the " The Lost Chief," the subject of which was the Duke of Wellington, and I subscribed for a copy. Since that time be has been hanging about the house. I went to the printer of the poem, and from him to the bookbinder, who went with me to the lodging of the pri soner, where I saw the latter in the back room on the ground floor, and I told him that he had stolen a great coat, and that he must come with me to the station-house. He was unwilling to go, but at lot consented, and when we got outside the officer took him into custody. The owner of the coat was with me. In going to the station house the prisoner threw away a duplicate for a waistcoat. I afterwards returned to his lodgings with the officer, and on searching diligently we found the gloves produced be tween the bed aid the bedstead. The o gnu of the gloves was with me at the time. It was my turn to take the money that day. He did not pay me. No one else has I authority to take money in my house. Mr. William Hutchings, clerk in the London and Westminster Bank, said—l went into Mr. Jones's house on Wednesday to dine, as usual. I took off my great coat, and pat into one of the pockets my neck wrapper and a pair of gloves, and then hung it on • peg in the room. I then had my dinner, and after dinner I went to the usual place where the coat hung, and it was gone. My hat was on the peg. I informed Mr. Jones of my lost I pointed out to the witness Reeves the peg on which I had hung my coat. The gloves produced are mine, and when the officer found them in my presence they were placed one on another, and I knew them to be mine. I once saw the prisoner in the dining room, but never spoke to him. Neither the coat nor wrapper has been found. I solemnly believe these gloves were in the pocket of my coat when I hung it up. Croes-examined—l have worn the gloves • long time, and there is a small hole In one of them, and they are lined with wool. There is also • seam in them from which I know them. Mrs. Isabella Sparks—l lodge in the house in which the prisoner resides. I let him in on Wednesday night, between 11 and 12, with a great coat on. He had not been in the habit of wearing one. I have not seen it since. It was not the coat he is now wearing. The prisoner, in opposition to the advice of his solicitor, made the following statement :—I have one thing to state, my lord. It is, that Mr. Jones is decidedly wrong in say ing that he saw me enter the room that day without a great coat. Mr. Jones is very, very seldom in the room in the daytime, and was not there when I entered it. He states, also, that I did not pay him. Very naturally. He had just come from above, where I had previously paid hie clerk at the desk, which is his office. I went out to see if it rained, which I found it did, and returned to wait for a few minutes. I took down my coat and went to the desk. Seeing Mr. Jones there, which is unusual, I said I've paid my bill, Mr. Jones; I don't think it rains so much. I shall bid you good night." He bode me gad night, as also did the clerk. With reference to these gloves, which have been sworn to, they are my own pro perty, and I can ?rove from whom I purchased them two years ago in my native town ; and as to their being under the bed was a matter of eery little moment, when haq a room in which he can put his things where It is convenient. I have nothing more to say, than that the charge, brought against me are most decidedly wrong. Mr. Garry, for the p risoner , said that his client was a gentleman of high &equipments, and that the poem to which allusion was made had received the strong appro bation of the present Duke of Wellington. He con tended that the evidence was by no means conclusive, but The Lord Mayor briefly repeated a few of the leading facts produced in evidence, and committed the ptis)aer fur trial at the Central Criminal Court. MARLBOROUGH- STREET. The Rev. Henry Henegsti, curate of Crofton, Titchfleld, Huts, was brought before Mr. Bingham, on a warrant. charging him with obtaining 161. from Thomas Waters, of Fareham, Hants, by false and fraudulent pretences. It was deposed that the rev. defendant, who is a married man with four children, superintended the national school at Crofton, the governess of which was a young woman, about 19 years of age, named Macfarlane. About three weeks ago the rev. gentleman suddenly left Crofton, accom panied in his flight by Miss Macfarlane, and proceeded to Boulogne yid Folkestone. Subsequently other circum stances came to the knowledge of the county magistrates. who granted a warrant for his apprehension, wnich was placed in the hands of Superinteadeat Harvey, of the Hants constabulary, who, alter considerable trouble, traced the rev. defendant and his frail companion to London. From information he had received he went on Thursday I last to a coffee-house in Oxford-street, when he under stood they were staying, and there saw Miss Macfarlane, who, in reply to his inquiries, said the defendant had left her several days before without a farthing in the world, and site had not seen him since. Mr Harvey at once paid her bill, and placed her in the care of a friend till his re turn to Fareham. Superintendent Harvey next procured Mr. Bingham's signature to the warrant, and proceeded to Pinner, near which place he apprehended the defendant on Sunday night, and he was now placed at the L bw to I answer the charge of need and forgery. Superintendent Harvey was sworn, and said that last night he took the prisoner into custody near Pinner; he was in a railway train, and witness took him therefrom on the present charge. Witness had no evidence here to-day, and he wished his worship to remit defendant to Fareham. Mr. Bingham said the superintendent was entitled to take defendant there under the warrant backed by him (Mr. Bingham). IkIE YLLIPLIC COLLAR, *Sir Al 1 S SACS.

IRON SHIPBUILDING ON TILE MERSEY. - On Saturday, at noon, the building yards at the south end of Brunswick Dock presented an unusually ani mated appearance, in consequence of two iron vessels being launched from neighbouring establishments. The first to touch the water was the clipper sailing ship Tal , from the yard of Messrs. Cato, Miller, and Co. She was released from the stocks precisely at half-past 12, and glided majes tically into the river amidst the plaudits of the assembled spectaton. More than ordinary interest was attached to the Talavera, inasmuch as she is the largest iron ship built in Liverpool, tbeing 1,170 tons burthen, o.m. The prin cipal dimensions of the Tal aaaaa are : length, 202 feet 6 inches; breadth, 34 feet 9 inches ; depth, 22 feet. She is very strongly constructed, and the aim of her builders has been to combine large capacity for cargo with great speed. in both of which important qualities they have been emi nently successful in this, as well as in their former vessels. Thy Tat is the property of Messrs. Miller, Houghton, and Co ' of this town. We are happy to add that, not withstanding the boasted superiority of the London and Clyde-built ships, the builders of the Talavera have on hand large contracts for iron ships, with not only Liverpool owners, but with both London, Glasgow,and Australian mer chants. The second launch was from the yard of Messrs. T. Vernon and Son, who are well known as the builders of some of the finest iron vessels which owe their paternity to this port. The new vessel was a beautiful paddle-wheel steamer, the Enniskillen, which has been constructed for the North-west of Ireland Union Steam-packet Company, to ply between Liverpool and Londonderry. She has been built on the most improved lines, and is expected to com bine quick sailing with large carrying capacity, while, at the same time, care has been taken to make her a seaworthy and safe boat. Her dimensions are :-20011. long. ; 26ft. beam; 15ft. deep; and she will be supplied with side lever engines of 320 horse-power, by Messrs. Fawcett and Co., of Liverpool. Her mode of construction adapts her equally for sea and river navigation, having a long, fl it floor, with finely moulded bows, and a clean run, which will enable her to sail on a light draught of water. Her figurehead is a full-length figure of an Enniskillen dragoon. Then was some little delay in liberating her, owing to vexatious impediments thrown in the way by some of the journeymen shipwrights, who, with a view of coercing their employers to agree to exorbitant claims, left the yard in the morning, and the Messrs. Vernon were obliged to supply their places by inexperienced hands.—Liverpool Albion. SERIOUS DEFALCATIONS IN THE ACCOUNTS OF FLINTSIIIRE. On Wednesday Edward Williams, a clerk in the employ of Mr. Thomas Wynne Eyton, the county treasurer, was committed for trial on three charges of embeulement. Williams, we understand, resided at Trebeirdd, and was at one time secretary to the Denbighshire and Flintakire Agri : cultural Society, and was considered to be an upright and honourable person. Circumstances, however, occurred, which dissatisfied Mr. Eyton with the manner in which the books were kept. The treasurer, therefore, obtained pos. session of the books; and on examination, his suspicions 1 1 were confirmed by the discovery of one or two of what ap peared to him to be very gross errors. A subsequent era : mination of the books by Mr. Roberts, the clerk of the peace, revealed further inaccuracies equally gross. These " errors" afterwards proved to be "alterations " made in the sums total, subsequently to the auditing of the accounts by the magistrates. The total amount of the defalcations discovered up to the 18th of October was about 900/. It appears that Williams has ensconced himself in what he deems to be a stronghold, in the shape oft stamped receipt given to him by the county treasurer, in full of all demands upon him in connexion with the county accounts. That receipt, however, was given unad visedly, and, as it appears, before the extent of the defal cations had been ascertained. After the magistrates bad fully and minutely investigated the affair, they came to the unanimous opinion that they had every confidence in the county treasurer, and regretted the loss he had sustained through the dishonesty of his clerk. We understand that Mr. T. W. Eyton had recovered some 5001., which still left him minus 4001. Thus stood the case at the end of October. A further and more searching examination of the books has since been made, and we regret to find that defalca tions to a considerably larger amount have been discovered. —North {Yaks Chronicle.
