Lel CRANWORTH moved for certain returns connected Intimeenty courts, which were agreed to. THE DANISH QUEITION. Ms* Earl d cAaNeivoN, who hada notice on the paper IhrooP sitaction to thopsesont detect the Danish question, ME —Wheel I gave noties to briog this question under the tinwitionlita of your kalabips, I did so wider the belief Iliattbo contersion, white was then sitting, was practically Am mai I bawl hoard since then that it has beets stated bawdier piers then the conference is still sitting, and list an semidlos is bees agreed to and accepted by all wild It is my intsmtko, if that report be true, to with- Amor ay notice. I alwil be glad to hear from the noble kali Ste Saaekazy for Foreign Affairs whether that is the moo; aid perhaps be will be good awash to inform us weber what cirmansleaces it was that an armistice was ogprod te, and what the terms and conditions of the amillie are. Ihed BIMIELL --I hare to state to your lordships with gpmg satiefactiou that at the conference to-day a suspension elf InstaTities haa been agreed upon between Austria and MIMI. ot the one side and Denmark on the other. The Ineneien which this suspension of hostilities has been agreed bre co the basis of on possicistis, each party retaining its era poetise by see and by land. The blockade is to be rank and the suspension of arms is to be foe one month. lari conference will meet again on Thursday. TM Earl of DONOUGHNORE—Do I understand that Jutland is nob to be evseasted ? Earl RITSSELL—Tke qnsetiuu was between a snepension of am and an annistiss, and the German powers were osehied to apes to a propoidticn made in conference by which Jutland would have bean evacuated by the Germane, gad Alien monied by the Danes, but the Danish govern mat preferred a simple suspension of arms, each power retaining its position. The Earl of CAIINARVON—Under the circumstances. I stall postpone my notice, but I cannot say that the state mat which has fallen from the noble earl has bees altoge ther satisfactory to ma lam not sanguine enough, I must mg, to expect any great molts from the conformal now witting. I shall not, I bops, say anything whatever to em blems bar Majesty's government, but under the cireum sinaces, insomuch as a result has been obtained, a very medsrate result however —I know not whether any subse quent result will be obtained worth speaking of—l wall act say anything that may tend to embers= her Majesty's go vernment. At the same time, I cannot my that I have beard with any great utiefactiou the terms on which this armistice hoe bees agreed to. It seems to me that it is one of the most one-sided armistices I ever heard of, as armistice all the advantage of which is for the Germans. I am sure of this, that Denmark by her moderation in accepting these terma leas entitled herself as much to the sympathy of Europe as she has for the ex traordinary gallantry she has shows. (Cheers.) Earl RUSSELL—As I have stated before, the proposal was that then should be an armistice, that Jutland should be evacuated, but the Danish government preferred a simple suspension of hostilities, and I cannot my they were wrong in making the preference. The noble earl says he ham very moderate expectations from the conference. I cannot quarrel with hirn on that account. The conference met for the first time on the 2.5 th of April, and the noble earl seems to have been surprised that the conference has not come to • conclusion in that time on a question which has been seder discuaeioa for 14 years. The Etrl of ELL6iI3OROUGII-00 what day is the enspension of arms to take place as regards Jutland? Earl IZUSSELL—It is to commence on the 12th of the }swot month. The subject thu dropped. PRIVATE BILLS. The following hills were read a third time and passed : Phenix Gag North Easters Railway (Micklebeld branch); Waadawnrth Bridge ; Salisbury Railway and Market Beim ; Llankßoos and Newton Railway ; sad the Andover sad Clifton Road Improvement Bills. LONDON DOCKS, ST. KATHARINE DOCK. AND VICTORIA DOCKS AMALGAMATION BILL. On the order for the third reeding of this Lord TAUNTON said is the committees on these private bills the public were not represented, and their lordships right to be very careful bow they granted to companies powers which took away the rights of the public. The legislature bad always sedulously gauded the freedom of the waters of the Thames, and they had sever allowed the paters of the Thames to be so interfered with as to prevent the free communication of lighters with ships. By this bill the power which wu given to the proprietors of St. Kat ha rine Dock, and which had been kept in check Ly the competition of the other dock companies, was given to a ll the three companies that were amalgama ted. He had not heard the other side, hut he thought this matter ought to be carefully watched and looked into. Lord STANLEY of ALDEILLEY was nederstood to say that the matter was one of considerable importance, sad he would undertake that the attention of the Board of Trade should be called to the subject on the passage of the bill through committee in the other house. The bill was then read a third time and passed. rHE WHITSUNTIDE HOLIDAYS. Earl GRANVILLE elated that ea Friday mixt be should neve that the house should adjoara until Moodily the Zed last. POLAND. _ _ Lord STRATHEDEN them rose to bring forward the reeolations of which he had given notice—" That in the I minion of this house tie correspondence of her Majesty's government with the cabinet of St. Petersburg on the P..lish question has not as yet reached a satisfactory conclusion ; thesis the opioion of this house, the Coax having failed to amply with the ooeditions upon which, according to the treaty of Vienna, he acquired his sovereignty in Poland, it is ao looger binding on her Majesty'. government to acknow ledge it." He considered that the Louse ought to take wash a course as be now proposed, in order to show that it was not raspoesible for the way in which that diplo• static correspoadetwe had terminated, and to con net and adjust Me position in which this coun try was unfortunately placed upon this matter. But there was another collateral result. It ought not to be forgotten that the conduct of this country on the Polish question had materially tended to impair the French alliance. It was perfectly well known that the Enoch go vernment were not satisfied with the mode in which the correspondence had ended. It did not harmonise with the emus* on which the ' , roach goverament embarked, and in a degree at our instigation. Oe the other side of the Mamie] it was thought that we were too disposed I. leave France behind, and to court an inti may with the government at St. Petersburg, and the despatch of Prince Gortchakeff of the 22nd of October afield lead any impartial person to the belief that this opi sios was not altogether unfounded. The noble lord con cluded hr moving his first resolution. Earl CSSELL slid he could not think that there would be any practical utility in a resolution by this house in con formity with his noble friend's motion. On the contrary, be thought that it would tend rather to impair than to Mcrae° the authority of the house. He did not think that the Emperor of Russia would in a time of tran quillity persist in disregarding all the obligations of that treaty ; but if be did so disregard them, he (Earl BeaseUi thought the Emperor of Russia, according to the public law, could no longer exercise with soy justice the eights of sovereignty over Poland. That, however, was • question not now at issue. He thought it better to rest on the very unsatisfactory terms, as he confessed they were, of the diplomatic correspondence, rather thus attempt to go to war, or at the present time to take any step that would have the effect of setting free the Emperor of Russia from hie obligations. Last year the very tyrannical conduct of the Viceroy of Poland ceased the outbreak which then took place, and unfortunately there had been in every con test a strong national feeling on the part of the Rus sia people, who thought that their greatness and territorial dominion were concerned and interested in putting down anything like resistance upon the part of the Poles. On the other hand, the conduct of the people in Galicia and Danthe made It hopeless to think that three presinces would ever form part of Poland again. He trusted, however, that they might look to a far better so vererseot than any which they had hitherto possessed. The made earl, in conclusion, expressed a hope that his noble friend would not prom his resolutions to • division. Earl GREY concurred with the noble earl in thinking that these resolutions had better not be pressed. He had last year ventured to expels, an opinion that it was impos sible for us to Lake up arms on bthelf of Poland, and all that bad wince occurred had shown the justice of that opinion. Lord CAMPBELL briefly replied, and withdrew his reso lutions. COURT OF CHANCERY (DESPATCH OF BUSINESS) BILL.

Mr. HOPWOOD naked the First Lord of the Treasury, or, in his absentee, the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether the government would state what course they intended to take with regard to the Danish question before the house adjourned for Whitsuntide. Sir G. GREY—The question put to me by the boo. gentleman is similar to that which was put to me the other day by the hon. member for North Warwickshire (Kr. Newdegate). I then dated th►t the aostfarence was sitting, that it was hoped that its Int result would be the smablish ment of an arraistim, and that the government would con tinue, in concert with other powers, to take measures which would be conducive to that end. I bare now the satisfac tion to inform the house, that to-day the conference bas agreed upon an armistice for a month. (Load cheers.) VACCINATION OF SHEEP. Sir J. C. JERVOISE asked lie Vicie-Prisideat of the Committee of Gouda oil Education whether, in the absence of the return of the results of sxperimente in yar ded* sheep, the question of infeetioo at the long range of five hundred yards, as stated as p. 229 of the Fifth Report of the medical officers of the Privy Council, would be considered by the select committee on the Cattle Me lilla Preveatioe and Cattle, ho., Importation Bills. Mr. H. BRUCE said he bad no doubt the subject men tioned by his bon, friend would be fully considered by the committee. JUSTICE IN CORNWALL. Mr. HUNT inquired whether the attention of the right hon. gentleman the Home Secretary bad been directed to a statement in the papers deseribiag the committal of a whole family for three weeks, with hard labour, for the offence of sleeping under • tent!

GRIFFITH (wise was received with cheering) asked whether the right hoe. baronet bad any objection to communicate to the house the terms of the armistice. (Loud laughter.) Sir G. GREY—I em quite unable to communicate the terms of the armistice at present, but there will be no difli. culty of doing so at an early date. (" Hear," and laughter.) _ . PUNISHMENT BY DEATH. Lard PEWIT, the Controller of the Quitso's Homehold, appeared at the bar and brought up the following reply of her Majesty to the addreet voted a few evenings since, for • royal commission to inquire into the subject of capital punishment :—" I have received your address paying that a royal commission may be issued to inquire into the opera. tion of the law under which the punishment of death is indicted, and the manner in which that punishment is inflicted ; and to report whether it ia desirable to make any alterations therein. I here given directions that • royal oosimiasion should issue for the purpose you require." DEFEAT OF THE AUSTRIAN SQUADRON. Mr. B. OSBORNE—I wish to ask the Secretary for the Home Department whether the government have received information of a collision which is mid to have takes place is the North Sea, war Heligoland, between the Austrian wed Danish ships of war, andalso if they have received is. formation that the Austria's had got the worst of it. (Laughter.) Sir G. GREY said his right boo. friend the Secretary for the Colonies bad waived a telegram about four o'clock from Heligoland stating that a naval engagement was going on between the Austrian squadroe, consisting of two frigates and three gunboats, and the Danish squadron, consisting of two frigates and ow corvette, air miles east of Heligoland, and that the result would beownoinniceSed. Since then we have received an additional telegram from the governor stating that the DWI*, won the action and defeated the Austrian squadron—(loud and long-motioned cheering from all parte of the bowel—that one Austrian frigate was in tames, and that the other Austrian frigate, with the gunboats, were m►king the best of their way for Heligoland. (Cheers.) THE CONFERENCE AND ARMISTICE. Mr. DISRAELI—I understand that the conditions of tlsearmistios have been communicated to another assembly. It appears that matters are not well managed, or with due consideration to the House of Commons, if any other place is better informed oe a matter of so much interest and importance sa an armistice—(mar, hear)—sod that we should be informed by the government that they had so communication to make to ea. I trust that in future we shall be as soon informed as soother place upon a matter of this importance, and perhaps by this time the government ham it in their power to communicate to us what the roe• dittoes of the armistice are. (Hear, hear.) Sir O. GREY—I stated all the information I bad my. self, which was, that • suspension of hostilities, which is practically the same thing as an armistice, had been agreed upon for • mooth. That was all the information I had gathered at the time. My noble fried (Earl Remiell) was at the Conference. He sent that information to me. It was impossible for him at the moment to communicate to me the terms of the armistice. I only regret I did sot know them at the time. There could be so difficulty is communicating them at another time, but I can swore the right boo. gentleman I withheld no information, (Hear.) Mr. OSBOB.NE—Is the right boo. gentleman aware of them sow? Sir G. GREY—No, I am sot. RATING OF CHELSEA HOSPITAL. Colonel NORTH moved aa humble mama to her Majesty, praying that elm would he graciously pleased to relieve the ofnoers of her Majesty's Royal Hospital of Cholas& from the payment of all rates and tams which had hiss charged upon them by • meet replatioe for homes in that hospital occupied by them u the performance of their datums. Yr. F. ?ELL rid as garlic's vu under the essider. &don of the Admirsity sad the W.r-office, but no a sal determination had yet been come to ou the subject. There should he beneficial occupation h order to reader ofilcial resider:es liable to assessmeat. He was not prepared to give a dellaitice as to what atedituted beneficed cost tra.: hat he thought it desirable that there shield be a act siva the 'abject. • similar quieten ma raised in year 1868 ; the Thesery was thee asked to pay out of the army estimates the house duty chargeable to ohms, and the deeknoa then arrived at was that the aloes were liebleto pay the rata themselves. There seemed to be as more reason why the oaken referred to should not pay the assessed taxes thee there was that they should sot pay Income tax, with which they were elearly chargeable. Captain JERVIS said the officers were compelled to re side at Chelsea, and he thought that goverameat were bound to see that those officers were not made chargeable with rates bemuse they discharged a ditty which was im posed upon them. An attempt was now made to reader Alters residing is barracks liable to rates sod taxes. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said there wee a onside:able differeaos between the ere of military officers residing 'm barracks sod the *Mows referred to in the motion. The latter should be regarded in the light of civil servants or public wrists. The question was a wide oae, and was not confined to Chelsea Hospital. Maay other institutions stood In • similar position. The matter was now under remade-eine, and he thought no change should be made with respect to the Chelsea officers until the entire general question had bees brought to issue. Upon that questiou he did not thiak it right he should give an opinion at that moment. Mr. BAILLIE thought the question was One which the government ought to take into their own hands, with e view to protect the °home from the payment of the roles. An attempt was recently made to charge the royal palaces with rates, tad the residents at Hampton Court were sated and held to be liable. The government interfered with reference to St. James's Palace. sad had determined that it should not be charged. They were, he thought, ballad to come to • similar decision with respect to Chelsea. (Hear, bear.) Calomel DUNNE said that in Ireland • movement had been made to impose rates upon lerracks, and he understood that *yea the lodging money given to officers had been =with income tax. He hoped that the motion be pressed to • division. Lord NAAS observed that it appeared from returns be fore the home that no general rule existed with regard to these aiecneatah. He wished to know whether before the civil service estimates were moved the government would be prepared to state what course they intended .to adopt on the subject. Mr. COWPER said that the rule mails is 1858 was still acted on. The question was whether the government or the Wirers should pay the rates, and that question was under consideration. The house then divided. For pia. into committee of supply Againet tt The house then went into • committee of supply ; Mr. MAMMY is the chair. ARMY ESTIMATES. The house thee went into committee of supply on the military estimates. The vote of 110,8701. for works, buildings, and repairs at home and abroad, which formed the subject of discuseion on the last supply night, was *greed to. On the vote of 173,8831. for military educistion, Kr. ILiGITIRE called attention to the constitution of the Royal Hibernian Military School, and protested against the manner is which a fair proportion of Roman catholic children were excluded, and against the narrow and Kor lytising system adcpted by tits authorities of the establish ment. — Mr. VANCE wanted the house against giving way to the representations of Mr. Maguire without first waistless; the governors of the school. - - Colossi NORTH expressed his amazement ►t the 'Ostia meat made by Mr. Maguire, and, as an old commanding akar, bore testimony to the good °mdse.* sod oowa•eriag gallantry of the Roman catholic ',gimping is her Majesty's service. The Marquis of HARTINGTON rid the* the school was under the control of governors appointed by royal charter, and that the war departmett had very little power in t►e matter. At the same time the house, which voted 12,0001. • year to the iaetitatio•, bad a perfect right to interfere, and motives of public policy dictated that the issiitntioe should not be conducted on an exclusive principle. He hoped, however, that the governors would see the secerity of remedying the evils complained of without parliszoisatesy interference. The vote was ultimately agreed to, u were the following: 88 i 345/. for surveys of the baited Kiagdoni ; 128,1034 for etumesliansons services ; and 223,3241. for the administra tion of the army.

He (Mr. Bright) hoped that if the bill passed, without any of them little needless obstacles to its free working, it would be found in the mune of two or three years to have been ea benedcrial ea the former bill to which he had referred. (Hear, beer.) The committee divided : For the amendment 3d Against The amendment was coneenneetly carried amidst some cheerier, and the clause as amended was agreed to.

Mr. COWPER said that a commission was now sitting, considering the entire subject, and it was expected that their report would soon be laid before the house. He therefore could not agree to a committee, which was contrary to the practice of the home. Mr. GREGORY thought the committee sbonld be post poned until the patent commiseionere had made their report.

In thlsce;Tii will be was • member of the bar, and was defending • prisoner indicted for felony at the Middlesex Quarter Seniors before the apayomelidant judge, Mr. Payee. In the course of the trial he was objecting to the Donne taken by the prosecuting mensal, when he was interrupted by the foreman of the jury, who said, "We know what all this is for ; we know the object." On another occasion he was objecting to the amuse takes by the peosecating camel in pressing an of his own witnesses and examining him as if he was cross-examining him, pointing out that such pressure m igh t adios the entails to carry his eadeoee further than the stria truth would warrant, when he was again inter rupted by the forams°, who said he had no right to insinuate that • vitae' was not speaking the truth. After this, in addressing the jury on behalf of his client, Mr. Pater said, adverting to the pre vious interruptions, "I thank Clod there is more than Doe juryman to try the case, for if it rested with me, and that one the foreman, there could be ao doubt what the result would be." The deputy judge upon that said it wee an improper observation to make, and dodged It to be retaliated. Mr. Pater refused to do so, onanding that be hid • right to use the expremdoes Ds bad, and upon that the assistantrjudg• (Mr. Bodkin) was appealed to. and he indicted • fine of 101. upon Mr. Pater for contempt of court. Au order was subsequently drawn up imposing the fine, arid Mr. Pater received art intimation from the Sheriff of Middlesex that it would be levied. The fin* bad not been estreated into the Court of Exchequer, or else that court would have had exclusive jurisdiction ; but this was a fine imposed by • court of quarter sessions, which it appears is leviable under the statutes on the subject without being eatreated into the Exchequer ; and it was conceived that this court by virtue of its general auperioteedence over inferior courts bad jurisdiction in the matter. It is • gene ral rale that all aura of record can commit or impose awe ' for contempt, and adjudicate upon what is • coetempt, without setting out the words deemed to be a contempt ; and in the present instates, although it was understood that the words would be set out is the order with a view to raise the question, in feet the words were not set out, but it was merely stated that Mr. Pater bad uttered words which were a contempt of court, and had been toed for such contempt. Mr. Denman, Q.O. (with whom was Mr. M'Mahon and Mr. Heasley), obtained on behalf of Mr. Pater • rule for a certiorari to bring up any orders of the Court of Quarter Sessions at Middlesex imposing any Sae upon or affecting the applicant in the matter in question, in order that they might be quashed. To-clay Mr. Bowl% Q.C. (with whom was Mr. Webby), showed cause against the rule. He said that from their salad years they were taught to respect the beach and the sanctity of our 000rts of justice. Happily, in the superior court; such scenes as that reader consideration rarely occurred, and when a learned judge had occasion to interfere, any intimation was immediately attended to, and • proper apology mad*. In this case every opportunity had been given to Mr. Pater to retract what he had said, but he had not thought proper to do so. The Lord Chief Justice said that if the learned counsel addressed his remarks psrsooally to the juryman there could be no doubt he hed committed • very gross breach of propriety, and he should say he bad committed acootempt of court. Looking at what had before happened as disclosed by the affidavits it was high time something should be does to maintain decorum in the court under consideration. The question was whether this was a proper mode of priceediog. Mr. Denman, in supporting the rule, said that perhaps the expressions used by Mr. Pater, to which exception had been taken, could not be Instilled ; bat he .vrished it to be understood that by so rpm that !redid not diminish by one jot what he considered to be the true privileges of the bar. There bad beep a great stretch of authority in this case, which, if made a precedent, might have a very serious, injurious, effect epos the freedom of speech of an advocate, and dad materially to damage the right' of the people. The Lord Chief Justice said this was the first time he had ever beard of an unpleasant or unseemly altercation between a barrister and a juryman. Mr. Denman proceeded at considerable length to urge that Mr. Pater had not committed any contempt of court, but had only done that which he considered was for the best interest of his client. The Warmed compel referred to the "Lives of the Lord Chancellors," by the late Lord Campbell, as showing his lordship's opinion with reference to the independence of counsel. His lordship recited an incident which took place on the trial of the Bishop of St. Asaph for libel before Chief Justice Buller, when he threatened to commit Erskine, who was counsel is the case, for a contempt of court on his insisting how the verdict should be entered. Lord Campbell, remarking on it, said it was conduct which justly entitled him to his statue in Lincoln's-inn. The Lord Chief Justice said there was a difference be tween the two odes—there the counsel was right and the judge was wrong. Mr. Denman—But who was to say Mr. Pater was not right Mr. justice Blackburn said the learned counsel was not likely to get a statue for it in TV estininster-halL (Laughter.) Mr. Denman further said that believing from what the juryman bad said in the course of the trial Mr. Pater boot fide said that his client would not have a fair trial, and he need the expression complained of. He could sot, therefore, as an booed man, retract what be had said. Mr. M`Nairn and Mr. lidealy followed on the same side. The Lord Coif Justin, said —I am of opinion that this rale should be discharged. I think there can be no doubt whatever that • court of quarter semi= being • court of record has attached to its jurisdiction the power of fm posing punishment for contempt of court. I believe that a court of quarter sessions, although • court of record, is • court of inferior jurisdiction, and this court has a right to interfere to prevent any usurpation of the rights it enjoys ; and I agree that if &court of quarter sessions, having power to fine or commit to prim for contempt, Ovate that for toe tempt which does not ressociably and fairly admit of that classification, this court has a ritt to interfere to protect the person over whom the court as improperly exercised its jurisdictioo. Now, as regards the question whether the jurisdiction was improperly examined, it apixors to use that we must not take upon ourselves the functions of a court of appeal. We are not • court of appeal from the decision of the court of quarter sessions all we have to see is whether the court had jurisdiction. I fled this doctrine laid doles by Lord Denman, in the case of Carus Wilson, in which a writ of habeas corpus was sent to the Royal Court of Jersey, Wilson having been committed for contempt He says, " The court may be insulted by the most innocent words spoken in a contemptuous way, sad in each • case every judge must form his own opinion." It appears by that that Lord Denman took the same view of the maim that I have maintained in the coons of the case. We have to see whether the court could reasonably corn* to the con elusion that a contempt bad been committed. I protest against our being called upon to pronounce that we have jurisdiction over the contempt. If there hail been anything shown us that could not have bees adjudged a contempt, the omit would interfere to pro tect the person alleged to have committed a contempt, end to prevent his being punished. But we have no right to sit here as • jury to decide upon the facts. I agree that the words are words that say counsel might have used in the honest discharge of his duty to his client, and which, how ever harsh they might have been to the jurymso, if they we not pet pointedly, amid not have been construed into a toootempl, but could only be coesidered to be used in the course of the address for the purpose of destroying any bias that the learned counsel considered existed in the minds of the jury. But if used for the purpose of insulting the jury. man, they were used in abuse of the privileges allowed to counsel ; they were an insult to the juryinao, and a contempt which the court could punish. Mr. Pater Dow says in hi affidavit that he did sot mean to use the words as a contempt. I for one give the moat unbounded belief to what Mr. Pater says ; but I fear that he at the time let his temper get the better of his judgment, and re fused to do that which a gentleman ought to have done who knew that he lid used words that be ought Dot to have used, and who knew that be was in the wrong. If a man will act obstinately and say, " I refuse to retract the words I have uttered," he must abide the consequences • and that isjust what has occurred is this case. I re gret that the juryman was allowed to make the observation that he did without the interposition of the court. It would have been better for the court to have interfered and have told him that he had batter not get into altercation with the learned gentleman who was addressing them. I certainly think that the words which were used in the present cam admitted of a two-fold see= and the meaning that was to be attached to them could only have been judged of by the gesture sod tope of voice the learned counsel used at the time. Wee =Cdr. Payne a judge of that I think he was. No one holds • higher seem of the rights and privileges that are exteeded to the her than I do, because as it has bees said, and very properly so, by Mr. Remaly, • leaned counsel's seal is not for his own make, but for that of his clients. lem sorry that we have to come to the conclusion that I have =premed, but at the same time we must Dot be biased by our own feeliaga, but must decide the matter upon the quasi= laid before us.

Nana Rea, 53, sod Henry Read, 21, her son, were charged with stadia( a considerable sum of mony, the property of Joseph Rankin. lo awither roan the money was Ind to belong to Mary Ann Vicken. The prisoners were elm charged with feloniously receiving the property, know* it to have been stolen.. Mr. F. H. Lewis etioducted th e prosecut ion ; Mr. Met calfe mid Mr. Begley were counsel for the prisoners. The cirministanoss under which this charge was uelemed against the penmen have bees very fully detailed in the various inquiries that took place before the magistrates and before the cormer, and they were of rather peculiar character. The de:sued was aa aged man, who had re tired from busbies', and was of very penurious habits. For about two years previous to his death he had lodged with the ferule prisoner and her husband, who were person in • very humble coodition of Ids at Delano, and he paid them twelve shillings • week for his board and lodging. The decamped bad formerly resided with one of hie relations, a Mime Vickers, who lived in the name neighbourhood, and it was known that at this time he was in of • sum d between WM and 6001. in notes gold.red During the greeter portion of the time the do ceaseclodged in the house of the female prisoner. it seemed that he was almost bedridden, bat it was observed that be kept his money in • box is his bedroom, and the evidence west to Dhow that the incoeywassafe in the mouth of March, 1863, sad it appeared that is Jane of the same year the de ceased made his will, by which he bequeathed the whole of his property to Miss Vickers, who was his mooed cousin. Is the following mouth of November the deceased died, rather suddenly, and ie onsequeece of acme °imam staaces that subsequently transpired • coroner's inquest was held upon the body, bat the decision the jury arrived at was that the death arose from natural causes, and the prisoners were subsequently committed to take their trial upon the present charre. It appeared that immediately after the death, Miss Vickers went to the house of the prisoner Maria Read for the purpose of taking pos. session of the property of the deceased ; but to her astonishment, all the money she could find was • sum of 121. She asked some questions of the prisoner relating to the money, but the denied all know ledge of more money than the stun that was discovered, but she stated that • abort time before Mr. Rankin died he had been visited by some person who represented himself so his friend, and that after this person had left she found he deceased in • state of stupor, and the suggested that this person might have taken the money that was supposed to be minion. Further inquiries were then made, which led to the discovery that the prisoners had both been engaged in changing for gold various bank Dotes, among which was one for 2001., which noes were proved to have been in the possession of the deceased shortly bdoire his death, and this led to another demand being made wpm them for an explanation as to bow the money name Leto their possession. The prisoner Henry Read seemed in the first 'potence to have treated the matter very cavalierly, and told his mother not to answer any questioes, and to " let them go to law ;" but eventually, upoli aes t : the female prisoner said that the pressed g'iven her the money. These were the principal facts in support of the charge against the prisoners, the evidence leaving no doubt that they had changed bask Dotes belonging to the deceased ; and the principal questios for the jury was whether these nous had been gives teaser by the decepaed, or whether they hod unlawfully possessed them selves of them during the lifetime ' or after the death el the deceased. With reference to this point it was urged that the statements made by the prisoners were very suspicions, and that it was extremely improbable that • man of such Latina as the deceased should have given away inch • • large sum of money to strangers, and that if he had does so be would not have made a will afterwards leaving the property to his relation, bliss Vickers. One circumstance in favour of the prisoners was, that it appeared that they did not seem to have acted with any secrecy, and that the notes were dialoged at the shops of tradesmen by whom they were perfectly well known and that their right name acid address were endorsed upon the notes. As an in stance of the penurious end niggardly habits of the deceased it may be stated that it was proud in the course of the case •by a lady named Sewell, who was use of the district visitors at the houses of the poor, that, shortly before his death, she administered some relief to him upon his repressetatioa that be was in a des titute condition, although at this time there was no doubt that he was is possession of a very large sum of money. The learned counsel for the primmer' contended on their behalf that as regarded the young man there was no eel. dance whatever to show that he bad anything to do with the robbery, even supposing • robbery had been committed, as all that was proved against him was that be bad thaeged two or three of the notes, at the name time giving his real name and address. With regard to the mother, it was urged that there was nothing to contradict her seamiest that the money had been given her by the deemed for the kindness he bed received front her. Mn Hut, a married daughter of the female prisoner, waa called as • aad said that daring the last year she was liv i ng at her mother's house, and was ac quainted with the deceased, and the stated that 00 two or three oocesices her mother told her that the deceased bad gives bar beak notes, sod that once she saw him give her a bank sou, stating that he did so as • resompease for her Itiodame to him. This witness also said that she heard that the &mend did sot wish it to be known that he had given away the money is the manner stated, for tear he should have his ndatious dowel ! poi him L'poe being this withers mid that she re membered se - siog a 2110/. note in her mother's poseasekm, and that she afterwards ea. the gold that had been ob tained for it at the Bank of England also in her poserision. When she was asked what had become of this mosey she said that it was all spent, and did not know anything more. Mr. Lewis, I. replying epos the endows, remarked upon the absurdity of supposing that an old miser, such as the deosaaed clearly was, should give away 1001. and 2001. notes in the manner represented, and that there could not be any rethosable doubt that the female prisoner had yielded to the temptation that presented itself, and that she had ta k en an opportunity of *peeing his box and steal the rno ße zz , ha. log summed op, the jury, after delibe rating a short time in the box, retired. They rebutted into court ia about halfds-boar sod gave ave Mi d of Not (Joky as regarded the prisoner Henry Read, and found the mother Guilty. Mr. Lewis said that the mosey that was stolen was almost everythiag that Mire Virden had to depend re ps, and it could bsrldy all be spent. He suggested, therefore, that seethwee should be postheasd, in order that the pri sms, Maria Read might have an opportunity of giving some iaformation upon the sakject if she thought proper to do so.
