He put his band round her waist, and asked her to let him kiss her. She refined, of course, as she did not wish to be kissed by a man like him. He succeeded in kissing her, and he left her, using very insolent language. Mr. Haynes, for the defendant—Did he kin you more than once? Witeeee—No. Mr. y. Then he was satisfied with one sweet kiss.

Thomas Prosser, a waggoner, living at Blatcbley, near Itadditch, and his wife, are in custody upon the charge of seriously ill-treating two of their child ren , and thereby ciansiag the death of one of them. Prosier and his family, six in number, have only resided in that district for a fortnight, having been engaged by a farmer. The man had four chillreo of his own, and the female prisoner, who is his second wife, had two other children, who were illegitimate.

On Saturday night she was called io to see the child oe which the inquest was held, when it appeared to be very ill. It, stepmother, according to the father's account, had "levee it a little slap or two, and it Lad fallen down." Mrs. Thurstans gave information to the man's employer, who communicated with the police, and subsequently two children, boys. were removed to the lodging house, and placed wider medical ears, but obis of them sank from exhaustion. and died on Monday morning.

THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 31, 1864. THE CONDEMNED CRIMINALS IN KIRKDALE GOAL. We understand that up to last night no reply to the memorials forwarded to the Home-office on behalf of the wretched men Ellis Green and Henry Brown had bees received. On Wednesday Green was vhdted by his two sons, sad on Thursday Brown was seen by his wife and father. The latter left the prisoner deeply affected. Green main tained a calm deciesientr, and has evidently made up his mind for the wont. He spends the greater portion of his time in readies the Bible sod religions books. He is not at all of a communicative d i sposition, and seems to wish to avoid entering into conversation with the officials of the gaol; but whenever the subject of the crime for which his life is to be the penalty is mentioned, he positively denies that he jumped upon the uafortanale woman. Brown has been mach deprenend in spirits daring the last few days, and especially snag the fact of Lindoe hayi ng b een reepited was comment shied to him. At Ant he maned to entertain the hope that the efforts of the memorialists would be snomestal. bat now that Linden has been nepited sad no reference has beat made to him (Brown) by the Home Secretary that hope ap pears to have been dispelled , sod he has become earnest in his preparations for eternity. The execution is to take place this day week—Enorpoot Mercury. WEATHER REPORT.-(THIS DAY.) SATURDAY, DODIRAza SI, 8 A.X. Nairn . Li* Arians_ wreameide.

The doctor removed the clothes, and diseoviesd the poor creature's fame sod shoulders so twisted round, arts be completely downwards, and her nose was turned round upon her cheek by the force of the fall. From the mouth and nose there were froth and bloody mucus issuing, and the tongue was swollen. She was quite dead, land the doctor expressed se opinion that deceased fell oat of bed in • it and was suffocated in the bed clothes. The evidence went also to show that, for about a week, a charcoal fire was burning in • stove on the landing outside the bedroom, and the door had been left opea by the servants to let in the beat The cook said that whoa she got oat of bed in the morning she felt faint, and was also ill the night before.

SAD Acctursv.—A very distressing accident occurred to Mrs. Charles Tempest, daughter of Mrs. Wash ington Hibbs,* at her residence. Boswell Hall, near Rugby, last week. Mrs. Tempest retired to rest about 11 o'clock, carrying in her hand a lighted candle. Immediately after entering her bedroom she discovered the sleeve of her light tarlatan dress to be on fire.

Mr. Tempest endeavoured to extinguish the Osamu which at this time had completely enveloped his wife, and in doing so burnt his own heeds badly. Failing to accom plish this they together rushed downstairs into the library, where they were met by the family butler earacted by the alarm.

Mr. Teens, of Chealuiro. street, was telegraphed for during the night, and under hie care Mrs. Tempest is happily progressing favourably. ASSAULT IN A RAILWAY CARRIAOS.—An SS malt of • most violent character was perpetrated on Saturday in a third-clans carriage on the Cleveland sad North York shire Gne of railway, about midway between the &oh/slay and Castleton stations. It would appear that the parties ant Neighbours, respectably connected, and residing in Wester dale. It appears from the statements of the other passengers that the assailant's conduct was most outrageous, suddenly seizing his neighbour by the whiskers. and at the same time dashing his head against the side of the carriage. The only reason assigned for so much violent treatment was that the parties had differed io their opinions regarding the respective merits of some prize bulls exhibited at the local shows during the last @woo. It is expected that proceed ings will be instituted which will give employment to the gentlemen of the long robe.— Yorkshire auette. ACCIDZSTALLY SHOT DEAD.--Chriatmaa has brought its usual list of gun accidents in Sussex. A doe young man, named Hoary Kemp, who, with some friends from Eastbourne, was shooting over hie father's land, at Hurstmooceaux. on Bo:in-day, has been the last victim to the careless way in which guns ars frequently carried. " We went." said Mr. A. Vine, of Eastbourne, at the in quest last Tuesday, " into a field sear his father's house, sod he was passing through • *apples, carrying the gun in his left hand by the barrel, the muzzle panties towards his head. I expect the gun went off from something catching the trigger. The muzzle must at the time have been within a few inches of his head, for it shot away one eye and the forehead and a part of the brain from the skull. He imme- I diately fell dead. I was within a few feet of him at the time. The accident arose from the incautious manner in which he carried his gnu. I had only ten minutes before handed the gun to the deceased, and the hammer was then down ea the esp."

Coder the direction of Mr. Kell, the coroner, the jar, returned a verdict of " Accidental death." --- I"HZ CARDINAL AND THZ ANBAkSADOR.—A COITO - writing from Reese to the Gazeft ( du Afidi, relates the following anecdote :—" One day 14.17, mime Count de &stages was pressing Cardiad Antonelli to inform him whether the Court of Rome would reply to the lest comma nicatioss from the cabinet of the Tuileries, the Secretary of State said that the answer bad been already written, printed, sod forwarded to its destination. The ambassador expressed great surprise at this ennouocement, and complained that his isonimince should thus, contrary to all diplomatic usages, have lett him in %amino* of • document which ought to have been communicated to him in the first instance. The cardinal replied. ' You have only younelf to blame for it, count ; did you not set the example of reserve and silence in the affair of the convention? Do not give way to any un easiness on the subject, however; oar answer has been ad drooled to the universal episcopacy, and not to the cabinets. Had it been sent to the latter, you would have received it Ant ; you know that lam not so vindictive as to thick of omitting yon.'

The stock markets are dull to-day, owing to an absence of business, combined with • vague fear that the steamer due from America will bring news of a rupture between the North and Canada. Very few variations, however, have occurred in quota tions. Consols have declined 1-16 per cent., but the movements in the chief British railway stocks are about evenly balanced. Foreign securities are extremely quiet. The general discount market is rather quiet to-day, with few bills offering, but the rate for the best paper is firm at 6 per cent. In the Stock Exchange the supply of money is very small, and application has accordingly been made to the Bank for loans to • considerable amount on English government securities. At Paris to-day, according to Mr. Renter's tele gram, the Three per Cent. Ranks were quoted 6&r. Mc. Consols are now quoted 891 to f, ex div., fur money, and 894, ex div., for the account (January 10). The official business report is as follows : Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 894, ; ditto, for account, 894 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, eq, ; New Three per Cents., 884, I ; New Two-and-a-Half per Ceuta., 714 ; India Five per Cent. Stock, 1021, 103 ; Five per Cent. "enlaced " rupee paper, 102; ditto Five-and-a-Half per Cent., 109, 110. Foreign stocks are inactive, and, with the exception of a rise of per cent. in Consolidifs, prices exhibit no alteration. Some of the present quotations are annexed, viz. :—Greek Bonds, 23} to 1 ; Mexican, 29} ; Confederate, 55} to 56} ; Spanish Pas sive, 32} to } ; the Certificates, 141 to / Turkish, of 1858, 701 to f ; ditto 1862, 72} to ; and the Consolicte, 481 to f. Transactions are recorded as follows:—Egyptian, 95} ; ditto, 1864, scrip, 1, f prem. ; ditto for account, 1} prem. ; Italian, 651 ; ditto, for account, 65} ; Mexican, for account, 291 ; Peruvian, 1862, for account, 83, 1 ; Portuguese, 1856, arc., for account, 48 ; Russian, 1822, 89} ; Spanish, for account, 49, 1'; ditto Passive, for account, 32}. Egyptian Loan scrip is now quoted 1 to 1 prem. ; Danubian, } dia. to par ; and Monte Videan, 21 to 3 prem. International Financial shares are now quoted 24 to 4 prom. ; General Credit, 34 to II prem. ; London Financial, 9 to 4 prem. ; Imperial Mercantile, 34 to 4 prem. ; Hudson's Bay, 16 to 4 ; Anglo-Egyptian Bank, 4 die. to par ; and Ottoman Socidti Gindrale, 2 to 4 prem. The Shannon, from the West Indies, has brought about 500,0001. in gold and silver. Hares-roar Two o'Cwci. Consols ate rather firmer, at 89} to it, ex div., for money, and 894 to if, ex div., for the account. About 12,0001. in gold was sent into the Bank yesterday. Nevertheless, the demand from abroad is stronger, and the 84,5001. by the Essex, from Melbourne, has been taken for Paris. The stea meri Parana has arrived at Lisbon from Brazil, with 30,2611. in specie. I There was no material alteration yesterday after- I noon in the foreign exchanges, except that the rates !on Vienna, Trieste, and St. Petersburg were quoted rather lees favourably for this country. Subjoined is our usual hat : Amsterdam. 3 mentlis, 11.18 to 4: ditto, 3 days' 11.14 to 15 ; Rotterdam, 3 months, 11.18 to l ; Ant werp, 3 months, 28.524 to 55; Hamburg, ms. bean, 3 months, 13.74 to 13.74 ; Paris, 3 days, 25.15 to 20 ; ditto, 3 months, 25.474 to 50 ; Finiktort-oe-the-Beine, 3 moths, 1194 to 120; Bt.

The weekly return of the Bank of France shows the following changes : One and bullion Bills discounted Consensual deposit' harem 760,000 Notes in sireolation. ...... Isensin 190,000 Private depoile Adsaaer As usual at the close of the year there is an in creased demand for money in !Prance, and the dis counts are accordingly augmenting. The decline in the coin and bullion is of only moderate amount. The value of money here is still higher than in most of the continental markets. At Paris and Frankfort the rate of discount in the open market is 4i per cent. ; Vienna, Amsterdam, Berlin, and St. Petersburg, 54 ; Hamburg and Brussels, 4 ; and Turin, 64 per cent. The exports during November are shown by the Board of Trade returns to have been less by 693,1101., or 51 per cent, than in the same month of 1863, but larger by 2,303,703/, or 23 per oent., than in November, 1862 ; while as regards the eleven months' comparison, the increase is 16,205,4971., or 16 per cent, over 1863, and 35,060,0861., or 30 per cent., over 1862. It will be seen that the general export business has been maintained at a high point daring the month, notwithstanding the obstacles interposed by the state of the money market, while as regards the figures for the 11 months we have already proofs sufficient that 1864 will rank as • most extraor dinary year for business. The incoming returns from the vast exports of the 11 months will help to keep the money market in an easy position. As regards imports, the computed value in October was 20,309,7461., against 20,394,5031. in 1863, and 19,039,6261. in 1862 ; but the value of the imports for the first ten months of the present year is put at no less than 181,283,8561., against 156,561,22/3/. in 1863, and 140,315,0241. in 1862. This shows • very large increase in our commit ments to the foreigner, chiefly on account of cotton, and helps to explain the monetary pressure by which so large a portion of the closing year has been distinguished. The discussion respecting the appointment of a settling day for the Atlantic and Great Western Railway certificates of debenture was continued before the Stock Exchange Committee yesterday, and adjourned for six weeks, to allow of the receipt ' of special powers from America, in furtherance of existing powers from the companies, for the issue of the debentures. We are informed however that the measures taken in connexion with thematter have been from time to time fully communicated to and sanctioned by the directors of the railway companies. _ _ The Caledonian Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 1.349& over last year. A general meeting of the shareholders of the City Bank is called for the 17th January. The transfer books of the International Land Credit Company will be closed from Monday, J a n. 2, to Jan. 9 inclusive, to prepare for the payment of the interest now due. The half-yearly interest is advertised on Northern Railway of Canada First Preference Six per Cent. Bonds. The Levant Herald announces the failure of Mr. P. Vuccino, with liabilities stated to amount to 460001. The subjoined report on the bullion market is from the circular of Messrs. Sharps and Wilkins : The late advice' from lodia have . not by say means favourably indoenoed the market for bar silver. The OZ. change at Bombay is quoted nominally a shade hr ip er sl but there appears on the part of all the usual Iridium re very general indisposition to operate , at all sweets *Mil the aommeeeemeet of the new year. The price is quoted se. lid. to sa. lid. pm oz. std., but without any demasd.ollexi• tea dollars are also somewhat flatter, the nominal quolation being fle.Old. per ox. The various amounts arriving are by no means ezternive, hut seem in the present state of the Ohba trade quite sufficient for the requirements of the market.

The opposition encountered by Sherman I. bis very able sad apparently most nocessful march through north•eartern tgki corroborated the author of the "Diary North sod Soo*" in his oftee-expressed °plaices. Although the news of the capture of Savannah is not officially conveyed to us, it may be takes to he very probable, aa all the ehances were against the Confederates being able to collect as army suf ficiently strong to bold both Faster sad Sherman is check. Savannah was closed seawards to the Coefedemies ever since the capture of Fort Pulaski bet it was a very Important city, and its capture would produce an im mature impression all over the Confederacy, particu larly am the repeat of it would rue in maple with** news of Hood's overthrow Wore Nashville. The march of Sharman disposes effectually of the oft quoted remark, th►t the Feleritla have to move an army beyond the fire of their guaboeta.
