Mr. Clarksoe—Note will you turn ty the minute hook of the board of guardians, and read the report eatered'thrre under the data U 1167,1848. - - - The 33rd army bulletin was published on the Bth at Vienne. It throws no light on the haw: of the grand ba , tie expected on the 6 - 11. It only states that Major-General Bastin, of the corps of the Ban, bed had on the 4th a warm engagement with the insur gents rear Japiq B eke, and taken twelve cannon, of which 4 were carried off aid 8 abandoned, for want of mesh, to tarty them awar. Whether this en mint is the same alluded to in the following bulletin, published at Peeth on the btb, by Marshal Wilma we cannot my. The fallowing is the bulletin in question : "A bri gade of the Ban's corps yesterday, on the rood to Jaezbereny, f Il in with a division of the enemy, which. notwithstanding their superior number, he immediately attacked and soon dispersed, taking from them 17 pieces of artillery." The 93rd Vienna bulletin goes on to state that on the 6th Prince Windiectsrata, who had hie head quarters at Aped, had attacked the enemy at Haman, but that the attack rodeo/0d its-lf to a mere cavalry' engagement, which east the Magyars 60 de-d, 40 wounded, and 32 prisoners. It would appear from this bulletin that the strength of the insurgents on the whole ins was very greet. It is further stated that on the 4th Mambal had had an engagement with the insurgents, and beaten them back from • Hstvan to Oyongyos. On the rth the Austrian army . was to assume the defensive all along the line of op rations. At Penh. on the 5 , h, mime carts full of wounded cline in. The Croats secomeanying them poor men saw that an engagement which had occurred near Tseghed had been an unlucky one. The boinbsrdmer.t of Comorn cottinued on the 6th inst. In his proclamation of the eird iar., General Binionieh declares that there is no reason ti hope for a es;eitulstior, _ . " Nothing new from Catalonia; marches, counter marches, three or four carlists killed and a few musk, is taken, that is all we hear from that proricce. cal imprisonments are the o►der of the day. About twetty, must proceeding from Logrono and Ham, were brought into Burgos the other day. In Morbid three or f.ur arbitrary arrests have been made. The committee on the budget is about to bring its labours to an end. The budget will be augmented by 280,000 rids, instead of being diminished, as was ardently longel for." Mr. James—. We, the undersigned, being the viait'ng committee of the board of guardians for the Holborn Union, beg to report that oa this day we went over Mr. Drouet's premises at Tooting. On surmising the dinner furnished to the children, we Maud the meat was good, hut the potatoes were bad, being blast ant watery. We visited the school moat, the workshop sad the dorenitdry, and toned them cl ea n and comfortable ; but is the new sl eeping -.dims moms bad smells were pereeptibk. The girls looked bee thy and well.but the boys looked sickly. Oa asking the latter whether they were satisfied with their food, about 40 held up their hands to show their dimatisfactios, upon which Mr. Orsini celled them lime, and said they were the worst bola in the school; and that if he bad followed the advice of Mr. James (the witness), and have given them a gcod thrashing all round, he should have sated rightly. We then gases timid the boy. separately: some of them stated that they I had not bread enough for breakfast. Whilst this examination was going on Mr. Dronet became very violent. He said we were using t in unfairly; that we ought to be satisfied upon the grounds of his character ; that he should be glad to be rid of di , . children altogether. Be, ia order to avoid any further altematior, we left the_Rreatiess, not having completed the inquiry. Signed, 'lentos Winch, Redding, and T. Mars." Tnat report was promuted to the board o. guardians* Mr. Winch, thrtagh the meeirm of the witness. It was ordered to he taken into consideration that day week. It was so taken into colloids ratios, and a special deputation from the hoard of gnirdirna was directed to proceed to Tooting for the purpose of institut ing further inquiries iota Mr. Drivel's treatment of the chi'dren.

A ear gainary etc gamest bad been going on in Genoa for two days, during which the 'troops had gained some important positions. The post-packet Alexandre, which left Genoa oa the evening of the 7th inst., has brought the following particulars and intelligence op to that date :—The city defended itself with incredible obstinacy ; privets and women had taken a part in the defence of the barricades. No troops could have pr netrated into the town mlhout being crushed by the stones that had been collected in the houses for that purpose. Shells and mew' bells have destroyed several houses, and severe y damagel others. In the hospitals several patients have been struck by projer a ; several ships in the harbour have also suffered. The French residents, and many fugitives of other nations, took refuge on board the Ton eeeee stammer. At last the consular body succeeded in ob taining the conclusi in of an are:natio. of 48 hour.. Tnree members of the 'municipal council set out f r Turin to obtain the royal unction to this conve..tioo, as Gone ral La Marmon refused to take it upon his responsibility. The Piedmont...s troops have not maned to make preparations for defence in the inter val. The Alexandre, on entering the port, was descried by the Piedmontme, whr, taki g ire peseengers she had on hoard for a body of L ne bards some to the assistance of the Genoese, Bred upon her; but the mistake being son di.covered, th-1 Piedo entree commander made excuses to the captain cf ' the Alexandr% Tee British man-ot war now off Gems I bad been seen making manteuvrts which appeared h:atile to the Genoese, boa' which they, concluded bat she would act in concert with the Peedmocte-e troops, should the armistice. not be accepted. No one is allowed to quit the town. The number of vii t•ms is c siderable on each side. At the moment of the de. partum f the Alexandre, a rumour was current I that 2,000 Lombards had just entered the town by the Teo a% road, and 4,900 more were expected. Tree fAlowing are the terms of the armistice, which was to txp're on the 9M at noon: Mr. Clarkson—Was any previous notice even to Mr. Dr4ust or this 'Lit ?

It was en natty reported yes'ereity afiernnon in Paris that Genoa had finally surrendered to ()sterol La Manson, but oar correspondent could not aroer tain from what source the information was derived. NAPLES.—We have received despatches from our correspondent at Naples to the 4 h inst. inclusive. The King of Naples had issued three decrees esta blishing tee bitetget of 1847 for 1849. The 1 berty of the press is under almost absolute prohibition, and martial bawls estabriabei for a certain class of offe. ces. News had been received from Sicily so late as the 3rd of April. Up to that day no decisive military movement bad been made, but an attack was in pre paration for Catania. Filangieri left Messina on the Ist inst. to join his troops, who had marched in ad vance, and were said to have destroyed the village of Patti, and blown up a tower near Taormina. The greatest enthusiasm still prevailed at Palermo. The royal troops were said to have met with a check neer Melrose , . General Sir Charles Napier had arrived at Naples on the 3.d, in the Ardent which touched there to leave Major and Mrs. Napier, who was too ill to proceed. The Admiral went on b oard to pay his respects to the General. Any publication of news from Sicily is prohibited at Naples. On the 4th, the Fives were at 84; Exchange on London, 582. ROMAN STATES.—The Mime Goostea, of the 7th inst., states from Rime, of the 31st ult., that the courier of Naples had not arrived on that day; and th.t intelligence had been received of the legion of Garibaldi having entered the kingdom of Naples, and commenced hostilities, General Ferrari, who was at Rome, bad proceeded in all hate to Termini.

I have the biretta, to appear before you, on the part of a public body, fur the parrot, of prosecuting that inquiry,— not unjustly and unfairly to press anything against the prisoner at the bar, as charged in the indictment, but firmly and distiaedy to stand up for the administration of the criminal law, and, HA. be guilty of the crime imputed to him, to press errand him the administration of that law. I have stated that I am hers to represent a public body, ail not a mere formal prosecutor.

Ia the month a Novi mber, Mr. William J. Sit*, a engin, was emptied by Mr. Drone. He saw the sick ward, and he would tell than the euediti es in which it was. There was no seperate plane for prang who were sleeted with contagious disorders.

Bat atter this period Mr. Dr net took 200 more children from St. Pinatas Uaios, thous& before their reception it would be proved that the establishment was eve-crowded On tit' 29th of December the cholera unhappily set in. It was in grata a fatal disease, but it wee hen t earfully salt minus, fur between the 29th of December and the 13th of January no fewer than 150 &Urea died of it.

Ia leheerineeee of am - ' Wien irquiries were made, and es Friday , . the sth a en crary, the government, that is to say, the Board of Health, seat Mr. Oraugn, an eminent sargems. to visit the establish. meat. He saw the way in which the albino were tented be made legends* with regard to the fond and their genera l treatment, and he came to the conclusion that, in consequence of the treatment which they received, their general health was greatly enfeebled, and that, consequently, cholera was more likely to Ind its way into the establishment. He would not anticipate what Mr. Granger would me haws them, but he could not omit to in them of what he saw when he sisited the sleeping apartments of the children. Ho found the beds so dose to emelt other that a mistake was actually made in say. lag that five children slept in one bed. The feet wee that two chianti slept in one bed, and three in another, but, so thee were the beds. that it was supposed the five slept in one bed. He found the beds penally occupied by two or three ebdiren, with no means of keeping them in a state of clean lines.. Ho found there was but one nurse for 60 or 60 children, and that this aura was ill. He accordingly spoke to Mr. Drone on the subject, and told him that there should be more medical mss. He told him that be should memo three, at the least, for this responsible duty ; that he should provide more nurse* for the purpose of keepine the children clean an comf ortable in such a din serene condition of things. He went there two or three da!s afterwards with the hope of finding his recommenda tions earn. d cut; but he found no edditional nurses. no additional medical men ; he found some of the elder boys employed as nurses, to taae care of those who were recover ing from cholera. As they might suppose, Mr. Geeing.? expr. seed himself rather strongly on this state of things. The children were dying in loch numbers th it the guar tians of the Holborn Union resolved on removing the &dares b ib aging to it. They were accordingly removed from the Suer Hall establishment on the rat of January. J Mee Andrews, nue of those children who we. affected won cholera, was removed in a van in a very weak vete. He was placed in an racediant institution, the Royal Free Hospital, Gray's-lac-lane. He was extremely ill when plead there, end on the morning of the 6th of January he died. The nurse who wee in the Holton Union would state the condi lion in which these children wen. Built wee desirable that be should state her very words, in order to show the g-oeral treatment and neglect of them children, bemuse they were tapeworm with regard to Mr. Decoct'', knowledge, and the gram he ought to ban pursued in order to keep nem free hrat rakes.' sad disorder. lit • says—•' The children, whet they rammed, wen in a very bad state generally : their feet were la a bad Mate ; there were bed sorts on their toes and hands; met of them had eruption ; their woes& were not dressed ; they had sure hands ; the children dui net resemble W anteing, In the workhouse." Every attention was paid to tae children who Were taken away, and in ameequerae of their sub-equent treatment many of them were restored, but numbers of them died. Inquiries were node of the children respecting the way in which the establishment was eon• dewed and the treatment they received in it, which led to an inquiry before a coroner's jury, The inquiries related to tee way in which the children were hd, lodged, and clothed. It would seem that an agreement or an avengement had been made with Drouet, on taking them children under his care and guardianship, to the effect that 0 •• would tee iv. es. 61. per we k fur their maintenance, sad in that engsgement was included such clothing as would keep them in a warm state. Now, with regard to their food, this would aprear to have been the case—to use the remarkable expression of one of the childrea them selves—" T oat their bellies were as hungry when they left their mode as when they wont to them." Mr. Winch would tell them that he saw the loaf eat up into 16 einem, when it should not have been cut up into more than 13, or even 10, if the proper weight were given. With regard ti quantity, they would hear from the children themselves what a email quantity they had. They would hear that there was only one day in the week that their bellies were filled, and that was when they got soup. He believed there wee no complaint with retard to the qua. lily of the food except as to the potatoes, reopening which many serious complaints were made. The potatoes were so extremely bed, that it was impossible to cut them. It would =l'that, ill 401111111411elle• of their w ag ashag and they Welt pile 1 up in a b as set and giro., away. Sines the deaths occurred, it was thought desirable to have the bodies of the children cumin d by eminent me dical men. They were so examined, and the opinion of the medico men from that examination wee, that there was every indication of a want of sufficient f .od. The stemma:is of *the children wen found to be swelled, their limbs were mall, the eouatesumees of some wen pile, whilst those of Illehele were roay. Bat the medical men would tell them ills was not the rosiness of health, but that flush whisk sometimes appeared with disease larking beneath it. He bad already told them the general nature of the evidence respecting the mode in which they were lodged and the scat of the sleeping apartments. Almost every medical man who bed ben examined, whether his evidenee was otherwise favourable or unfavourable to Mr. Drone Iran his opinion that the establishment eras overerooded. It would be also rend by them that it woe ill-ventilated, that then were not enengh of wiadows, and that the mode of veatilatim was bed. Independently of the children sleeping two and three be a bed, the means adopted for removing the na tural evacuations wen defective, which muse gin rift, , in so crowded an establishment, to noxious exhalations ' Two tabs were used for this purpose, which were emptied in the morning, but they were immediately filled with warm water, which was need be the boy, in webbing the fi me He would leave then to judge of the effects of such a system am the health of the children. Another matter which be MIMI Ann to, though it was not perhaps of a very neat ineertanes, Was the Onetime tithe building itself. It would impair that some foul ditches ran by it, and that one of them had been rained out some time before the cholera hooks out, the mann them whit& was left on the edges. It would ohs wage filet the day apartments were not sufficiently Lige, is oensignenes of which the boys were obliged le remain is what was allied the play-ground, Ass they were out of school, in the dusk of the evening. The result of this was, that many of them wen alarm perished with sold. This brought him to the mode in whisk they were clothed. When the cabins wen seat to this es tabliatmeat they bed tolerably good and warm clothing ; bat when they got is there, Mr. Dronet took away their clothing, and gave them inst ead some poor, panted clothes, white were not salleint to keep away the cold. On Sun days they had corduroy dresses, which the children said were mash warner this those they won on week Saes. They would state themselves west they suffered from the want of sufficient clothes. Bach were the prin anal hinds of eraplaint laid in this indictment. But the question which would be submitted to their consi deration was as to the hers,--one of the deepest poaible im portance that could be agitated in public, one that demanded the donut and most seratinions investigation, and required tke greatest peedble oar* and caution es reseeded the law weigh is to it.

Mr. Clarkson—Y's, my lord.

Witness—Yes, my lord. On the 26 bof October, it wee dets mined mat the guardians should ge down to inspect the pltee and make inquires. The coalman of the board, six suardianr, and myself went to the establishment, and by the direction of that committee, or deputation, this report to the board wee drawn no : _ _ _ The committee antes to report to the board that they have this day visited Mr. Drouet's establishmentat Tooting, and inspected every part thereof. They wen present at the children's dinner, witnessed the mode of instruction adopted in the defendant's schools, and also the industrial training of the children, and they desire to report their entire satisfaction at the whole of ,the ar- rangements. There are at this time about 860 children farmed at the establishment, and rot one to ill as to require medical aid. The soil is gravelly, and the situation appears to be dry and healthy, and those m, gibers of the com mittee who are acquainted with the Norwood establish mint," when some of the child= had formerly been, my lord,—" consider that the one at Tooting is by no mune so bleak or so exposed to cutting winds as that is." That was the report pr seated by the committee to the board of guardians, and upon which they determined to seed the children. Kr. Baron Platt (to the witness)—That does not apply to my question es to the dietary. Witness—Tha nest report was the _printed dietary of the establishment. It was given to me by Xr. Dreaet at the time when the guardians were there. Mr Clawson—lt would be as well to have that read, my lord. A dietary table was then put in and reed, from which, amongst other particulars, it appeared that there were three meat dinners in each week, the quantity of meat being 5 ounces, 4 ounces, and 3 ounces each, with three-quarters of a pound of potatoes; also that there was pudding once sett pea.soup three times a week. It was stated that so fired diet could be adopted, and that in sickness the diet was legit toted by the doctor. By . Mr. Baron Platt—For 4s. ad. a week they were to have lodging, food, sad raiment ? Witness.—Everything. Examination by Mr. Clarkson continsed-81 girls were seat first. There was a regular debtor and creditor account extending throughout the whole of the year. At the tad of the year the balance was gene r ally about the same. The deceased boy was sent oa the 28th Deomber, 1847, and re• rosined until the sth January, 1849' he was then brought from that establishment to the Royal Free Soigne/. Oray'leion-lane. It was the habit of the board of guardians to vilit the establishment monthly, that they might have the opportunity of seeing the mode I. which the children were treated. It was part of the arrangement that after a visit had been paid, a report should be made to the board an to the resale. No previous notice was given to Mr. Drout of these periodical visits of the committee from the Holbora board of guardians to his establishment. The witness then proceeded to read the reports made to the Holborn Board of Guardians by the various committees who had visited the prisoner's premises at Tooting, commencing in January 1848. One of these report' was in the form of a letter, addressed to the chairman of the board of guardians of the Holborn Union, commencing—" Dear Sir,—We, the undersigned, viesstuirman and guardians of the Holborn Union, will feel obliged if you will inform the board that we visited Mr. Drouet's ostablistimest at Tooting." Mr. Marmot here objected to the letter being read, as it did not purport %obi a formal report. Mr. Baron Platt—l suppose it is • report in the form of • litter. Mr. James—Esoctly so. The contents of this letter are entered in the form of a minute on the books of the Holborn board of guardians, signed by the chairman, as being a re port from the writer of it and Messrs. Southgate and Hart, the two other members in the visiting deputation. The letter was then read, and stated in glinted terms that the children in Mr. Drosses establishment were healthy, th e i r food plentiful and wholesome, their bedding clean and comfort able, and the premises generally healthy and airy. The riers did not sign the minute-book of the board of guardians. They signed the reports on which the minutes were baud. Mr. Baron Platt—How did it happen that thus perdu ler gestic:sec were the visitors on this amnion ? Mr. James—Because their names stood first on the rota of attendance. Clarkson—Was it the custom of the visiting commit tee from the Holborn board of guardians to enter their reports or to make any oheervations in the visitors' book kept at Mr. Drouet's establishment ? Mr. Junes—They might or they might not. Mr. Csiekson—Will yen look at the visitors' book. Mr. Jame took the visitors' book which was kept at Mr. Dronet's establishment, and read • series of observations which were causal therein, commencing in March, 1818. The first was 'ivied by some of the members of the board of guardians for the Holborn Union—and it sta'ed that, alter a minute examination of the children and of the premises, the vidsors had the utisfaction to record that great cleanliness prevailed throughout the establishment, that the health of the childroi shored their comf ot to have been t greatly ssiidi-d, such to the credit of Mrakonst. On the I 24th of March a smiler entry was made, signed by three I ruerdiaos. On the 31 st of Muth another entry, to she MU, eff-rt, was real, signet by eight guardians ; on the 30th of t May six enarfiians recorded their satisfaction with the state Mr. James—Certainly not, to my knowledge at lust. I believe Mr. Droner knew nothing of it previously. Mr. Clarkson—When was this said visit made ? Mr. iame—On the 30th of May, 1848. The previous re port having stated that the object of the previous visit not having been completed, the deputation, consieting of seven guardians, invited the three gentlemen, Mouses. Winch, Maya, and Bedding to accompany them to Mr. Decoct's, which they did. The r e p or t snit in to the chairman of the Holborn guardians, dated the 80th of May, slated that—" We, the undersigned guardians of the Unborn Union, have this day visited Mr. Droust's oda• blishment, at Tooting, for the purpose of examining into this treatment of the children belonging to the Holborn Union. We went accompanied by the gentlemen form ing the committee who sent in the last report, and we feel great satisfaction in reporting most fa rousably respectiog Mr. Drouet's establishment. We inane tied the bread, meat, and potatoes, and we were Evrfectly 'added with their quality. We visited the lodg of the children, and cannot but express our sesisfactit a oommeadatlon of their cleanliness. The scholastic at. r madmen - 1i are likewise excellent, and on the whole we have to record that we wire well pleased with our visit. We have to report speeally, with reference to the circum stoners which occurred at the last visit of tee com mittee from the Holborn beard of guardians, that Mr. Drone, expressed hie regret for 'the tioa of warmth which then occurred on his pan, an Ins yint.nd guardians expressed their natisOction with this acknowledgment on the part of Mr. Drinet." This re port was signed by the vim-chairman of th- board and the three ratlersen who had made the previous report. Mr. Clarkson—Now, let me ask, did you on the 9th of May retries any communication from • man of the Lams of Robert Aldry respecting the children ? Mr. James—On the Ist of January last, whiAt was New Year's Day, Hobert Aldry made a eommunication 'o me, in consequeoca of which f , en the 2nd of January, sent to Tooting to inquire into the circumstances stated by him. Where any directions gives Po Mr. Whitfield, the medical facer. to proceed to the establishment.
