E __-_ ~„Tlig REMICK BILL. TIEN Warr YeSterility a large meeting, called by a requisii ki°o !Vied by upwards of MO of the most holies liberal politiMnns in the great towns of the West Riding, was held in the Cloth-hall, Leeds, to consider the P.veminelki franchise bill. The Lord Lieutenant of the Riding (Karl Fitewillians) had Plied the meeting in reripenne to the re quisition ; but in the absence of the noble earl. Lord Hot Guron presided, and was supported by Lord R. Ca vendish, M.P., Sh• F. Crossley, Bart., M.P. Mr. Forster, M‘P., Mr. Childers, M.P., lir. Baines, M.P. , , Mr. H. F. Beaumont, M.P., Mr. H. S. Thompson, kc. There wee from 10,000 to 16,000 present. The noble Plumate, in opening the proceedine, said he regretted the absence of Lord Fitswilliam, an also that of his son, Lord Milton, who, having undergone as many adventures M Robinson erMee-4la m4 ter)—had s ee dy kilied s ldineall when hunting, as worthy Yom lied -done before him. , hear) They were met to support her Majesty's governmer in their desire to te the increased enfranchiseene of the people. Lofd Bermeß and Mr. Gladstone they los were conscientious reformers. The government had de. Bided to introduce a bill fee the extension of the franchise, and he approved of the mums, first, because it was a fair fight with the opposite side. (Hear, bear.) They tarried oat Lord Derby because he weld not reduce the borough franchise, and therefore now they were entitled to say, " Now that we are in power we have a right to propose this bill, and by it we will stead or fall." (ClisentC: more important than party was principle, and as Mr. (Redstone said in one sentence, he approved of the bill bemuse it would be a geed in itself. It was thing for man to have additional responsibilities, and he sho uld be glad to see every man of edveation andiadependsom, who could think for himself, with the right to vote. Re did net see that they could be the worse for it. (Hear.) If a man had bad inclinations he would not be the worse because he had a vote. He did not find that the " lambs " of Nottingham had votes. (Laughter.) There were people who were content with the present state of things. Such permits were quite right in opposing the measure, but he was sorry that there were some men sitting on the liberal side of the house, and in many re spects real liberals, who were against them on this ques tion, and might cause the distraction of the government (Veins@ ' Shame.") Why was it that the Northumber land was not launched? It was because the tide did net rise high enough. Public opinion was the tide u s to o l which they mast work, and unless that tide rose, the • of reform would stand still. Though theirs (the houses parliament) Might be the frwisnre, theirs (the people) meat be the find. (Cheers. Lord F. CAVINDISH moved the first resolution. He admitted *ethos should have preferred a complete measure, birt if a comprehensive 'shame had been introduced it opulil not have been carried. If they were to proceed by degrees, they must fix the character of the constituency be - fore they proposed the redistribution of seats. (Hear, s lit a ) He could not understand how the conservatives oppose the proposed reduction of the county franchise, except that they opposed everything, became they had themselves proposed to reduce it to 101., but he supposed the government struggle would be steins the borough franchise bill. The improvement in the diameter and condition of the working classes entitled them to consideration. Their opponents dared not meet them on fair end open grounds, and say the working men shoe unfit for the franchise, and they, therefore, would fight the question on all sorts of side issues. They must have confidence in the honour and honesty of the govern- Mont. The question of reform had been dallied with for fifteen years, and it was time that the government should now stand or fall by it. The meows of the measure de pended on the way in which the bill was received by the country. His lordship concluded by proposing that the meeting expressed approval of the government Reform Bill as a substantial, honest, and valuable measure, and its determination to support the government in prosecuting it toe successful issue. (Cheers.) Mr. Serownim, of Halifax, a working man, seconded the resolution. Mr. T. Dram, of Sheffield, supported it. Mr. FORATIR, M.P., also supported the motion. As • humble member of the government he thanked them ter the support they had given. Why were they there, on spch an inclement day! It was not a small matter which induced them to meet in such thousands. The government wanted support, and it was necessary to success that they should have support. If any argiunent was needed to prove the moderation of the people it was to be found in the good sense and generous feeling with which they had supported the government bill, disappointed with it for not going so far as they expected, as lie had no doubt they were, believing it to be a real, honest, and substantial measure. It was said this was opposed became it was not a comprehensive measure ; but they were too far north to believe that this was the real ground of opposition. Mr. Lowe, Mr. Horsman—lhives)—and Mr. Laing admitted that they were opposed to the lowering of the franchise, and the enemies and false friends of reform knew that the government intended to carry the bill, and that was the reason why, though so moderate, it was opposed. (Cheers.) The opposition did not come from the tones. The conservative leaders had " waited upon events," and if they had not been encouraged and provoked into oppo sition by men calling themselves liberals, there would have been no dOwnright opposition to the bill. He believed, too, that there were many in the conservative party who were sorry for the opposition, regarding it really as • con servative measure. A7l fr anchise, he believed, was the most that could be carried in this parliament, but it was also the least that could be given which would last. (Hear, hear.) He was no believer in finality, but they could not here reform bills every year, and they should desire now to pass a bill which should last for some years to come. Why came the opposition from Mr. Lowe and Mr. Hero man ? (A Voice—" Office," and laughter.) No doubt Mr. Horsman had honestly changed his opinion, but he believed he had lost faith in the people. If they were to succeed in their desire, we should not have a government for the people, but a government profmse&y for the people but really an oligarchical despotism. In York shire, however, they still held that the Commons Home should be elected by the people, and be relied upon them keeping the liberals to their creed. (Cheers.) Mr. R. A. LIAIIIAN also supported the motion. He began, too, by admitting that the government bill was not all they could wish. But before condemning the bill, they must consider whether, under existing circumstances, soy bill •ould be introduced other than one of concession or compromise. They saw the effect of the bill upon the members of some families whose income exceeded ball • million. If there was something so chocking in the small bill, what would have happened if government had intro- &iced a bill which would have suited him and them? Why, the liberal party would have gone to pieces on the spot. ( Hear, hear.) The good-will which existed in this country amongst class and class was due to the fact that men of every order and rank do fight shoulder to shoulder in great causes like this. The problem the government had to solve was how to introduce a bill which should combine the maximum of reform with the minimum of reitiftince, and candour compelled him to admit that they had solved the problem well. (Hear.) It bad frightened nobody except a few " soft shelled" liberals, as the Americans would say, and bad brought the franchise and placed it within espy reach of the working classes. (Cheers.) Remember, if this bill was defeated the government was defeated. With them the issue was would they give up Earl Russell for Lord Grosvenor ; would they give up Mr. Gladstone for Griffith. (Loud laughter and " No, no.") Mr. Punch hpd told them reform was pudding before meat. To • Yorkahireman there was no alarm in getting pudding be fore meat, but what filled • Yorkahireman with alarm was the fear that he should have neither pudding nor meat. (Loud cheers and laughter.) The resolution was carried amidst loud cheers, there being but two dissentients. Mr. BEA uwoirr, M.P.:moved that petitions to both hones* of _parliament be forwarded to parliament in support of the bill—that to the House of Lords to be presented by Lord Houghton, and that to the House of Commons by Sir F. Crossley, Bart. The hen. gentleman said he accepted the bill, because he considered it an honest and substantial measure, though he should have preferred • greater rodeo tion. Sir F. CIOSSLZT seconded the resolution, which was carried, and the farm of the petition was afterwards adoPted- By RY. —On Monday evening a public meeting of the inhabitants of Bury, in Lancashire, was held in the I.r 4e room of the Atheneum, in compliance with a requi sition numerously signed sad addressed to Mr. J.

Openshaw moved the first re. solution, which was, " That this meeting desires to express its satisfaction at having in power • government sufficiently honest and courageous to make an effort I. do justice, to some extent, to the unenfranchised classes." ihir, Walker seconded the resolution. Mr. Philips, M.P., supported the resolution, which was adopted, as was another proposed by Mr. Grundy and seconded by Mr. Lord, "'that, in the opinion of this meeting, the bill now before the House of Commons contains such • substantial measure of parliamentary reform as will adroit to the rights of citisenslup a considerable number of the working classes; and therefore this meeting pled ge s itself to do all in its power to strengthen the Leads of the government, and assist them in passing the present measure into law."

Hawkins, Q.C., and the, Hon. G. Denman, 1.C., were for the defendant The plaintiff in this action was • German, and he was described .as Dr. Strauss. It appeared that last year he published • novel in three volumes called " The Old Ledger," and the work was vent to the volume, t o be re viewed. The libel complained of consisted of the critique upon the work, which was in the following terms : " The Old Ledger,' by G. At. L. Stratum—Our first im pression on opening thu publication was, that so many Relics and inverted commas were never seeoongregated into the same space before. Our last, on cl osing it, is, that it must be the very worst attempt st a novel that was ever perpetrated ; it cannot ran claim the utility of an opiate ; its inanity, self-complacency, and vulgarity . ; its profa nity its indell aacy o use no stronger term), its display of bad L atin, bad French, bad grammar, and bad English ; the recurrence of Abuse, or as the author terms it, • htly digressive reflections on great men living and dead, and wholly unconnected with the subject, make the reader more indignant and the truth of this can only be conceived by an operation which few-are likely to attempt, and fewer still to achieve, that of reading the book." The plaintiff alleged special damages, that the gale of the book had been put s stop to by the libel complained of, and he claimed I,ooof. damages. The plaintiff's case consisted of the patting in of the libel, and one witeas, • gentleman named being examined to prove that it applied to the plaintiff. In cross-exantination he said he had read the pLuntiff's book, and be did not consider there was anyth particularly objectionable in it. The style and the languap in some porticos et the work were not quite correct, but he attri buted this to the plaintiff being a foreigner, sad his net having a perfect knowledge of English. Mr. Hawkins, in hie address to the teethe iletud ant, argued that he had only - the fair and legal bounds of criticism in reference to the lurk in qpestion. He said that the law gave to • journa • • the right to Lo p ain an opinion upon any work that was aired , the public, and although it might be an opinion that was disagreeable to the author, the latter bad no right to bring an action of this description unless some attack was made upon him personally ; and with • malicious motive and in the present case the jury would be satisfied that nothing of the kind existed, and in point of fast the gentleman who wrote the article in queen, who was a member of the bar, and the eon of an eminent and distinguished judge, Mr. Justice Lush, was an entire stranger to the plaintiff, sad knew nothing whatever about him, except with reference to his 00111161i= with the work in question. " The Old pledger, " the novel in ques tion, it appeared, was published last year, and it was sent to the Athena-um for review. The plaintiff invited criticism, and when the jury had hard the character of the work in question he believed they would have no difficulty in coming to the continuos that the manner in which the work was spoken of was perfectly justified, and that there were no grounds what ever for bringing the present action. The learned counsel then gave a very humorous description of the principal incidents in the work, one of which was that a principal actor is it commits • forgery to the amount of 7,000 t., " being tempted " according to the novel to do so to enable him to carry on a little longer his connection with the gaining table, and lase with a certain opera dancer, and the author was made to say that he considered his co nduct laudable, and that under certain circumstances the forgery of a bill for 7,000 f. was rather a praiseworthy act than otherwise. Another of the pprruinnccripal personages in the drama, one Sir Richard Effealie, who was a banker, also in a period of difficulty was made to ap propriate the securities of his customers to relieve the difficulties in which the bank was paced, and this mu was in the result created • peer, and • letter suffered to be written by the Prime Minister was introduced into the novel, representing that her Majesty had been pleased to select him for this dignity, as • swami mark of her approval of )w high honour and integrity. (Laughter.) The learned counsel then pro ceeded to state that in another portion of the work one of the learned judges was introduced, or I , :stlAr sa tstged into u the narrative, for no other purpose, it to him, than to make the utterly false and gro representa tion concerning him, that he had stated that it was better that ten innocent men should be convicted than that one Luaity man should escape, and that, in the exercise of his judicial functions, he always acted upon that principle. e then referred to another portion of the work in ques tion, in which a reverend bishop, • friend of Sir Richard Mali., was represented as having • desire to proselyties the latter, who was a nonconformist, while supposed to be on his deathbed from an accident, and to have almost forced himself into the dying man's room for that purpose, notwithstanding the physician, • gentleman still living, having told him that he considered it, according to the ex on of the author, " a intrusion " that he should thrust his religious notions upon the dying man at such a moment. The learned counsel cited several other in the work with the view, as he said, of showing I= IC object of the writer was to insult and vilify every religious sect, and he also called the attention of the jury to an observation that was made by one of the personages in the novel, " that he intended to treat his beloved caroms to the delicacy of a bloater foe breakfast." (Laughter.) He was proceeding to refer to other portions of the novel, and to argue that the article complained of was no- thing more than the expression of a fair and honest opinion of • work of such a character, when Serjeant Ballentine interposed, and said that he had referred to the extracts from the plaintiff's work that had been read by his learned friend—he had not read the book himself, and he was desirous of knowing what portions of the novel were relied upon sa • justification for the alleged libel—but after hearing those extracts, he felt that he should not be doing justice to his own feelings, or to the profession to which he belonged, if he kept up the ease for the Naintiff any longer. Hawkins mid that although he had not the slighted doubt as to what would be the ultimate result if the case had gone to the jury, and that in any use the result, so far as the question of costs was concerned, would be the same, be had no objection to the matter being terminated at this stage by the withdrawal of a juror. At the same time he thought it right on behalf of the defendants to _ _ state that 'not a angle syllable of the alleged libel was withdrawn, and he considered himself perfectly jueti fied in making the observations he had done upon this work. He had only read a portion of it, and if the case had gone on, he believed the jury and every one in court would have been shocked at the indelicacy of other portions of this novel which it would have been his duty to have laid before them. Chief Justice Brie said it was not his =tom to express an opinion upon any matter that came before him until he had heard all that was to be said on both sick', but au the present occasion he thought he might say that enough bad • to justify him in saying that it appeared to him ilerjeant Ballantine bad given very sound advice to his client when he recommended him nottoproosedany further with the inquiry. A juror was them withdrawn. Tin Common Lew Ormora.—The various offices of the common law courts will be re-opened to-day after the Raster reams. On Monday the Chancery vacation will terminate in preparation for the approaching Easter term. THE Hneurn or LONDON.—I t appea rs from the return issued by authority of the -General that in the week that ended on Saturday, h 31st, the births registered in London and twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom were 4,649 ; the deaths registered 3,722. The annual rate of mortality was 32 per 1,000 persoos living. In London the births of 1,082 boys and 1,086 girls, in all 2,107 children, were registered in the week. In the corresponding weeks of ten years 1856-66 the average I number, corrected for increase of population, was 2,191. The deaths regietered in London during the week were 1,582. It was the thirteenth week of the year ; and the average number of deaths for that week is, with a emu*. ' don for increase of population, 1,576. The actual mer- Laity of last week agreed very closely with the amount calculated for the last week of Mareb. Since the deaths rose above 1,800 in the first week of March, they have shown a constant weekly decrease. Fatal cum of bronchitis have declined to 197, the corrected average being 184 ; those of pneumonia to 85, the average being 110. There were 16 deaths from smallpox, 40 from measles 30 from scarlatina, 10 from dipbthena, 18 from croup, 76 from whoopings cough, 71 from typhus, 18 from diarrhoea. Five children died of measles in the Islington West sub-district, and Eve from the same complaint in the sub-district of St. John Westminster. Mr. Watts, the registrar of Islington West subdistrict, states that between the 22nd and 30th March 32 deaths occurred in the London Fever Hospital, 27 of which were from typhu.

NEWILULICET CRAVEN IIERIING,—Tuesnay. The earfr part of the morning was due, and hopes were enter tabled that the weather would continue so throughout the day, but those who thus hoped were doomed to disappoint ment, for rain began to all heavily before noon, and con tinued more or less during the afternoon. The Newmarket Handicap attracted a much larger attendance then yeeterikw, and speculation was very brisk on the various races, although betting on future events was at a dead lock. The Macon Staked; was the first ram on the card, but it was deprived of much of Its Interest by the absence of Hermit, who has already been backed for next year's Derby, as little as 10 to 1 being taken at the Its NotthaniPtm meeting : bet Ai:Weems* by Rock well, out of Paradigm (own slater to Lord Lyon), a beautiful filly with many of the chanctellstics of her eUstinguldied brother, the Derby favourite, was endlcient to make the race en important one. and ahe fully instilled the opinion entertained of her racing ability by winning easily, with odds of 7to 4 freely laid on her. The andicapp was the last event on the card, mid eight of the fifteen animala " coloured' were sent to the post. Kakring, from her running at the late Doncaster meeting, was installed favourite, 2 to 1 being accepted freely before the dig fell, an additional impulse to back her being given by Kenyon being in the saddle—the now fashionable light weight, who la followed by those who back successful Jocks ys as much as Jeremy °Hinshaw and Pordham were. The race le saffletentty dimwitted below. Balk* it to say, that the Woe was never in doubt, as Kakring took up the running after going half ensile, and won In a canter from Lincoln Green and Pearl Diver..

The guardians on thee informed, requested the Pcor-law Board to inform them on what grounds the recommendation was made, and the Poor-law Board having replied by referring the Kurdistan to the previous commu nication, lt was resolved, after • few jests, to pass on to the " next business," thus treating the Poor-law Board. decision with contempt Boma Knwarwarow MIIRITIM.—During the week ending March 31, the visitors hate been a. follows:—Oa.

IL Williams saki the charge against the prisoner was that he had sold and published a number of indecent priata, aides, and boob ; but in 0011110p10011 of the powers of Lord Campbell's Act the trade in such things was nearly broken up, and therefore those who dealt in these contraband bealar had resorted to a new mode of dispoaing of them. The mode adopted was to send catalogues to officers in Wracks, doolgarde, ships, and public schools throughout the kingdom, and he thought when such offences were brought home to those who pub lished them that they should receive the highest amount of punishment, for the influence of such things was most terrible to the minds of young people. In this case it ap peared that at the earl pert of January circulars were sent to the 'Cavalry bemdks at Canterbury, but one of theee circulars happened to fall into the hands of one of the officers who was a married man. He immediately com municated what be bad received to the chaplain of the Woes. A communication was *ant in reply to this circu lar to a place set forth in it, and • book containing speci mens of photographic slides of • very indecent character were sent to choose from. Some other letters paesei between the prisoner and • supposed " Captain Brown,' and an interview was arranged to take place between Cap tain Brown sad the prisoner at a house in King-street, St. James's. There • young oflioor lying at Canter bury Barracks appeared and personated " Captain Brown," and purchased two books, four slides, and • pack of cards from the prisoner, for which he paid him Si. The whole of these things were of an atrocious character. Sergeant Thomas, of the detective department, was in the house at the time, but as be was not then in pesasssion of a warrant he could not take the prisoner into custody. He received the articles purchased b the gentleman, and put his initials upon them. The oner when he went to the house in King : street had a Urge bag with him full of arlielem al •dieguseing character. The following. day Sergeant Thanes and the gentleman 'who had made the purchase went to Bew-street, and a warrant was netted for the prisoner's apprehension, and be was taken when on his way from his house at Homerton to gb to a dinner party. The prisoner behaved with a good deal of effrontery, and said he considered it no crime to sell men such articles, end the fault rather rested with those who held out the temptation than with those who satathed their requests. The articles having been handed to the jury for inspec tion, they immediately returned a verdict of Guilty. Mr. M. Williams maid the prisoner was tried for a dmilar offence at the Central Criminal Court in 1862, and sentenced to be imprisoned for twelve months. He came out of prison in 1863, but had no sooner got out than he again commenced the mine traffic. In oonsequence of this becoming known, • warrant was issued for his apprehension, but that warrant was not executed, through an inability to meet with the peisoocc The Assistant Judge ;laid he believed that the prisoner was one of • gang brought before him some time ago, and this was a case that was deserving of the severest meat. The prisoner was one who was reduced ber: b the level of the brute, for what he retailed was calculated to poison the morals of the youth of the country on their very entrance upon life. The gentlemen who bad come forward to aid this prosecution were entitled to praise on the part of every well-regulated mind, and for the object they had in view. The prisoner had dared to say that he saw no crime m sending this poison through the country, but be was sure that there was no man in court but himself who would concur in such an opinion. He would find that the people of this country were not so debased, and he only regretted that the lair did not empower him to peas a heavier sentence than that he was about to pronounce, which was that he be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for two years, and at the expiration of that time that he find two sureties, each in the rum of 501. (with forty-eight hours' notice), and himself in 1001_, to bap the peace and be-of good behaviour for six months, and, in conclusion, he said the prisoner would leave the court with the execra tion of every right-minded man. The close of these observations was received with ap plause by a very crowded court. FBOM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE.

THE MYISTEILIOVEI MURDER NEAR PERTH.—Since Saturday morning the authorities have bees busily engaged in making investigation in the came of murder st a d: g ut Stewart—the particulars of which we gave yesterday. Am the inquiries proosed, &commune. s seem to point to the Innocence of Henderson, the brother of the isismed, who at fait was very genteelly supposed to have some connexion with the murder. Henderson, it appears, was in Bridge of Earn, on his homeward journey from Perth market, a little before seven o'clock on Friday afternoon. Mount Stewart is nearly two miles from Bridge of Earn, so that it must have been fully half-pest seven ere that was reached. Some time would be occupied in unyoking and stabling the horse, and then the house, which was locked up, required to be entered by means of a window. This would take up the time til l after eight o'clock, shortly after which Henderson raised the alarm that his sister had been murdered, and, accompanied by a neighbour, proceeded to Bridge of Earn and apprised Dr. Limed the eirennuesnee; and before leaving thaixillage despelelied a note to the Procurator-Fiscal by the train which leaves Bridge of Earn for Perth at 9.10 p.m. Taking all these circumstances into account, it appears pretty dear that Henderson is not the guilty person. A most important witness has turned up in the person of Mrs. Riley, a travelling dealer in stone ware, residing in Meal Vennel, Perth. Wm Riley states that early on Friday afternoon (it must have teen aneral hones after Henderson left for Perth) she went to Mount Stewart in the way of her calling, and on reach ing the door she found the murdered woman, Mrs. Roger, engaged in conversation with a man having the appseranse of a tramp. Mrs. Riley, slier encelsenrieg a few wards with Mrs. Roger, left her and the man together. A motive for the commission of the murder has also been made apparent from the fact that all the lookfait places in the house at all likely to have contained matey or other valuable property were broken epee, and the im plement with waieh this hail evidently been anon gad' a pais el meow Names, has been feud. e bl soiseors, whisk have now bees taken poeseekm ba m t e h y e a rolioe, are covered with blood. It was generally that Henderson kept a lEge sum of money in the house, and was se doubt to poseseden al this tint the illeß4lmet. vbeevor be may protested the wise. The police are endeavo to get on the back al the man seen Mount Stewart ' Mrs. R , and it is earnestly to be hoped that they onoooed. • Courest. THE POLICE COURT& MLNSION-HOUSK Ada Tniatott, a young female of deceit appearance, aged 18 years was placed at the bar, by Folios-Sergeant Hawks, 699, before Mr. Alderman Stone, charged with a series of robberies committed by her en Messrs. Reynolds Brothers, of 28, Dunning's-alley, Bishopapte-street, whole sale stay manufacturers, her masters and employers. The prisoner had been in the employ of the prosecutors, and had worked on the premises for the last nine months, without any suspicion being entertained se to her honesty. On the contrary, she was considered to be a well conducted and industrious young woman. It, however, ap peeredthat on the 27th of March she was seen fellow workwoman to take a pair of stays from a basket on which she was sitting in the work-room, and to secrete the stays under her dress, and afterwards to remove them and put them in a place of con cealment in another part of the premiums. The stays were, however, taken to Mr. Leathern Reynolds, one of the fi rm, by another workwoman named Bates, and Hawks, the officer, having been sent for, she was given into custody on the charge of stealing the single pair of stays. Sergeant Hawks proved that he received the prisoner in charge, and that since the apprehension of the prisoner he had instituted inquiries at the different pawn'brokers' in the east end of the town, and had traced no less than 94 pairs of stays, which bad been pledged by the prisoner at 12 different pawnbrokers, between the early part of January last and the 24th of last month. The amounts re ceived varied from Is. to Is 6d. per pair, and it seemed, when the property was produced by the pawnbrokers' assistants that a considerable portion of it was in an un finished state, and wrapped up is the cloths which were given out to the hands in order to enable them to keep their work clean. The ;ntor, Mr. Leetham Reynolds, identified the property as belonging to himself and partners, and was of the value of about 121. The prisoner could earn about 12s. per week, and she had a sister who was also in the em ploy of the fi rm. The officer Hawks added to his previous testimony that when he received the prisoner in charge she fell on her knees and implored to be forgiven, and that subsequently she made to him a statement to the effect that she had taken the property from time to time to enable her to pro cure articles of nourishment for her mother, who was in extreme ill health. He (the officer) had entertained the truth of the latter assertion, and had found the home of the prisoner and her family in a miserable condition. Toe prisoner, who appeared to feel acutely the position in which she was placed, now burst into a flood of tears, and, repeating the statement she had made to the officer, said that she was guilty, and by direction of the presiding alderman, she was removed from the justice-room for a time. After a short interval the prisoner was again placed at the bar, and it was announced that her mother was in attendance, and, by direction of the alderman, The mother was called into the witness-box, when the recognition between her and the prisoner was of a most painful character. When both became comparatively com posed, the mother, in reply to interrogatories put by Mr. Alderman Stone, stated that the prisoner had always been a kind, affectionate, and dutiful child, and that she inva riably brought home to her the whole of her earnings, and when she gave her money in excess she stated that it was money she bad borrowed to purchase the nourishing articles which she (witness) required in consequence of ber ill state of health. She (witness) had not the slightest notion that the money was procured by the purloinuig of the property of the prosecute:ea. Mr. Reynolds was recalled, and in reply to the alderman said he had no wish that the case should be sent for trial at the Central Criminal Court ; on the contrary, he was desirous that the case should be disposed of here, and he also begged to recommend the prisoner so the lenient and merciful consideration of the court. Mr. Alderman Stone said that, believing the truth of the prisoner's statement as to the wants of the family, CORO. boated as that statement had been by the testimony of the mother, he should act upon the recommendation of the tor. But for that he should have felt it his duty to prosecutor. the primmer for trial at the Old Bailey, which would have been ruin to her character and reputation. He should, however, not treat her as a felon, but convict her of illegally pawning, and sentence her to pay the value of the property, together with a fine of 40e., and in default to be imprisoned with bard labour for six weeks. He hoped that this would operate as a warning, and that after her discharge she would return to her fernier habits of good conduct, and become a useful member of society. The prisoner wsa then removed, and the property was ordered to be given up by the pawnbrokers to the pro secutors. CLEBIES'IVELL. Thomas Brown, described as a pegilist, again surrendered to his recognisance, chargcd with the nianalaughter of John Loremin, an cannibus - driver, at the .nrchwaitavern, Upper Holloway, under circumstances already described in Ger columns. _ _ Owing to a conflict in the medical testimony, Mr. Barker said the case for the manslaughter had better not be gone into. The prisoner stood committed on that charge, so that the evidence bad better be waned to the assault. igs was dams, and the prisoner was committed few trial.
