*parting Intelligence. CHELTENH.I3I AND GLOUCESTER MEETING. This meeting commenced to-day, and although the weatlur was not absolutely unfaeourtble during the racing, the early morning was so vh.t as to give no promise of a Rue day, a•vi from this ciroi:l:4.l92e numbers were no doubt deterred from visiting the course. The attendance of the 1..ner , 1 pnblic was r.x.. - "-mtly xmsll, and the bookmakers were nut very strongly represented. The sport was nut only meagre but uninteresting, the Glou eater Stakes being the only event that calls for any remark. Dbl gueen of Trumps stored something like her forty•tifth victory in winning this race, and the result was hailed with general satisfaction. Details of the racing are appended. I.IASI , ICAI.

Although Honesty remained tint favourite, he was somewhat shifty ; after 9to 1 had been accepted, 10 to 1 was offered, but towards the finish all the 9's to 1 obtainable were taken, and no more than 100 to 12 was offered. Actaa, Knight of the Garter, Wroughton, Julius, and Friponnier were all well supported. The only sew outsider tracked was Celtics. about whom 1.500 to 15 was taken.

The outrigger race between George Hemmcrton, of Ted diorton, and George Drewitt, of Chelsea, for a stake of 200 f. was decided yesterday afternoon f row Putney to HamMersinitb, Drewitt rowing in • new boat built by Bain and Clasper, Hammerton in one of Messenger's. The performances of the men are too numerous for repetition, beswitts last swap having been with W. &Slier, by whom be was easily defeated, whilst Hammerton has only latelT taken part in the principal oar races at the regattas. in which he his won the championship several times. Both men have been in strict training for some time past, Hammertoe at the Star and Garter, Blaney, in company with Joe Sadler, and Drecritt. at his old quarters at Barnes. Since Sadler's victory over Drewitt the latter has not been the favourite for this contest, and at the West-end on Monday night 2 to 1 was Ilia upon Hammertoe. The Lotus was chartered to accompany the race, and there was a good muster on board, the betting being very fine to '2 on Hammerton, who won the toss tor stations. Mr. Wilberforce having been appointed referee, the men, accompanied by their cutters, rowed off to their :station*, Harry Kelley piloting Drewitt, whilst Joe Sailer took up hie opponent. On getting off Drewitt lest nearly half • length but soon dashed to the front, sod at the St and Carler led by a quarter of his own length. Oppo..ite Simmons'.. a punt was moored, and Drewitt, in attempting to go inside, foulest Hammerton, who was then level again. After clearing the punt Ham merles drew away, and ultimately won cleverly by six lengths, the referee also deciding the foul in his favour. Time, 9 minutes lt; seccoda. .

MiNimm. THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 16, 1867. tabs Enttifigtnrt• COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—Ocr. 15. (Bohn Mr. Oommierioner Winslow.) IN RE CAROLINE CUstSrPt. - - - - 7'he Unkempt was ilecenbeil as a widow, of no tiun. residing at 3, Lancaster-terrace, debts, KW., are all in respect of accommodation bills, with the exception of about ii/. A note appended to the balance s'.oet state% that S3ll. is due to Stilelier's Banking Corn piny, Bristol, in respect of bills accepted by the bankrupt for the Lite Mr. C. Bouch, merchant, of Bristol, and which bills lie had endorsed to the abore.narned banking com pany. Mill was the sitting for examination and discharge. Mr. Aldridge, for the official assignee, examined the bankrupt, and elicited that she had bad an interest under • will, but had sold it some time ago. Mr. Brooks, for a creditor, wished for the p roduction of the deed whereby the bankrupt bad passed her interest, and an adjournment was ordered for that purpose. William Anos, a labourer, was brought before Mr. Benson charged with assaulting hie wife, Eliza Amos, of No. 7. China-place, Back-road, St. George's-in-the-East. The complainant now wished to make light of the matter, and said her husband, who had been a teetotaller, got drunk, struck her, but did not hurt her. It appeared, however, that he had wounded his wife with a knife, and Mr. Benson sentenced him to one mouth's imprison ment with hard labour in the House of Correction. Marys Comes, a middle-aced woman, was brought before Mr. Lenwn charged with stealing meat. The prisoner stole a loin of mutton in the shop of Mr. Henry Hopwood, Cable-street, Whitechapal. She was followed, found with the mutton under her shawl, as well as a piece of pickle-pork and a cow-heel, and given into custody. Mr. Benson sentenced her to three months' imprison. ment with hard labour. to say that to a certain extent lam aware of the cogent nature of the evidence of the woman examined at the in quest, from seeing it reported in the papers ; and I think it only fair that Mr. Sleigh should have the opportunity of putting any questions. Mr. Poland said the other had appeared to him the more advisable course, but he was quite ready to call her. Anne Maria Janman, 1, King-street, Grosvenor-square —I am married, and live there with my husband, William Janman. We have lodged there seven or eight months. On Friday, the 27th September, we went together to the Amphitheatre, in Holborn. We remained till the performance was over. When we came out we went to a public-house on the rime side of the road as the theater, the left hand as you go towards wards the theatre. It is about two minutes' walk from the theatre. My husband had some ale. Could not say how many persons were there. I did not go inside. My husband went in, had some ale, and came out. We went on further, and went into another house. I went in with my husband. He had two pints of beer, and I hula glue of ale. We came out and turned towards home—towards the west. We had a few words because I told him not to have any more to drink. He then left me, and I came on till I came to the Bull and Anchor. While standing there I saw two men come out of the Bull and Anchor. One was a very fair man and the other dark, wearing a dark beard and dark moustache. The fair one left the dark one and turned down a narrow street. I saw him take something out of his breast pocket. While be was down there I heard the dark man say " Come on Groves; it is quite time we were gone." He made no reply, but returned to his friend. When he came out of the narrow street I saw that he had a false beard on. It was fair, very fair, and I came down so far as to hide his tie. I could not say how ; long it was. I could not say if be had a moustache on as well, hut he wore his own moustache. They walked on towards Southampton-row. I waited a while, and finding my husband did not come to me I followed the men. I heard the prisoner say all along the way that he would " Shoot the before he got home that night." They went on, and went auto the Turk's Head. I was close by the Turk'si Head then. I don't know which compartment they were In. I did not know there was more than one compartment. That was about one o'clock. I did not go into the public-house. Almost immediately after the two, three young men went in. They did not stay. They went out almost immediately, and went on up Southamp ton-row. The prisoner and the dark man came out and followed them. Them was a row going on, but I did not see what the disturbance was about. There were two cabs outside. Two or three minutes after I lost tight of the men I heard a report of fire-arms. I was close to the Turk's Head. I felt a little timid, and went towards home. I ran as far as Moses and Sons', corner of Hart-street, and I stopped there to fetch breath. While standing there I saw the prisoner aad a dark man come running up the street, towards where I was standing, in Oxford-street. The prisoner was then wearing a beard. I heard him say, " I have shot one bullet, and am sorry I dhl not fire a second time and shoot the right one. " He then crossed the street and joined a female who was standing opposite. I then went on my way home, not saying anything to any one. I went out of town on the following Sunday, to my husband's brother at Chichester, and remained there till Monday evening. I first spoke of what I had seen on I the following Tuesday. having previously written a letter upon the subject on the Sunday to Mr. Thompson. I posted the letter myself. Up to that time I had not seen either the prisoner or the other man. I saw the dark man alone on Tuesday at the corner of George-street, Gros venor-square. Two other persons came up, and I heard a conversation between them, which I reported the same evening to Mr. Thompson, at Scotland-yard. I wrote the letter now produced to the witness Farber. I think I wrote it on Wednesday. I called at Furber's lodgings, at 12, Albany-street. I did not see him, but the landlady of the house. I went out the three following days in search of the dark man. Last Sunday I made a further commu nication to the police. From the Saturday morning up to the time I was examined by the coroner I had seen nothing of the prisoner. After I was examined in the early part of yesterday I went in a cab to the House of Detention. Inspector Thompson rode outside the cab. An officer of the House of Detention took me round to the cells to see the prisoners. I think the prisoner was the fourth that I saw. _ .--..---- - Mr. Poland—When you saw the prisoner did you recog nise him? Witneu—l did not tell the oMoer till we had been to two more cells, when be asked me if I bad seen anybody like the man. I then pointed to the cell where I had seen the prisoner. I will swear that be is the man that I saw in Holborn putting on the false beard. I had never seen him before that Saturday morning. After being at the prison I went beck to the inquest, and gave further evi dence there. Cross-examined by Mr. Sleigh—l was married at St. Paul's church, Southsea, and at first resided at Southsee with my husband. He was a journeyman butcher at that time. I don't know the employer's name. He had been in his service three years, and continued for about seven months, when, on account of my ill health, we left, and went to Chic hester. He worked there about eighteen months, when he came to town, and I stopped at Chichester. I will swear that my husband has not been in ten situations since we were married. I have had no con. venation with anyone about this case since I gave my evidence yesterday. I have given my evidence at the Treasury, but nothing else. I have not bad anything to refresh my memory about the case, or about the evidence I Hr. W. 4/ S es . te lei rd X—Upon your oath have you not been read ing your evidence word by word and line by line in to day's paper? Witness—No, I have not. I was readings paper in the waiting room this morning. I was reading about the young man who was to be hanged this morning. lam not sure whether it was to-day 's paper or last evening's ; the same thing was in both. I don't know how far it was from the theatre to the first public-house. It was about fifteen or twenty minutes' walk to the furthest one. It was not a mile--it might have been half a mile. It was about 100 or 150 yards from one house to the other. We were about ten minutes in that house. I did not say we quarrelled along the streets. You may have words with out quarrelling. It was half-paat 11 as we left the house. I looked at the clock as I left the amphitheatre, and it was then half-past 11. I have not mentioned that before. It was about a quarter or twenty minutes to 1 when I saw them come out of the Bull and Mouth. I could not tell the exact time they went into the Turk's Head. It was about 1. They were putting up the shutters. Mr. W. Sleigh was about to put some questions as to evidence which the witness had given at the inquest ; but . . Mr. Vaughan thought that would be inconvenient at present. He had no knowledge of the evidence at the coroner's inquest which could enable him to say whether she was replying truthfully as to her statement on that occasion. The best way would be at present to confine the cross-examination to what she had said to-day, which everyone present had heard, and if it was necessary to refer to the examination at the inquest that would be a matter for consideration. Mr. Sleigh continued his cross-examination for some time without further reference to the inquest, but upon her saying that she did not know whether there were two compartments at the Turk's Head, Mr. Sleigh said he must press her as to whether she did not state at the in. quest that the persons came out of the compartment nearest Holborn. With much difficulty it was elicited that she did say so at tho inquest, though it was twice put to her by Mr. Sleigh whether she was quite sure there could be no mistake. She had waited up to that time thinking her husband might be there. After that she went after them to see if the man who had threatened to kill somebody was going to carry his " perfection" out. She did not, however, think of giving any one warning that two men, one of whom had a pistol, had followed some other men up the street. She at first denied, and then admitted, that she said she bad not been out much since the murder, because she thought under the circum etanoes she ought to keep herself quiet. She denied having said that she read a report of the inquest on last Sunday week in Lloyd's IVerAbs Itrorapaper. She did not know whether it was the 'inquest or not. But she did say that she read a report on that day, and that she commenced at a passage where there was something about a " Lieutenant." When she went to Inspector Thompson she did not tell him that she was the writer of the letter produced. The letter was here read. It was as follows :—" Superintendent, Great Scotland-yard, City. Sir,—l will come and unfold the murder of that young man that was shot on the 28th Sep tember to you. He is a fair young man with fair hair, cut short behind, and wears a short moustache. The long beard was false. He stands about 5 feet 8 inches high, and lives, I believe, in Gilbert-street, Grosvenor-square. I could not say what number. I dare not say my address, for I am afraid that the man that was with him will wait upon me and kill me. lam not a London young woman. My home is in Suffolk. I came to London on the Friday evening as the murder was done on the Saturday. I left London on the same Saturday morning, and I dare not tell, for he said that he would serve me the mine if be ever ' heard that I should. Sir, I will call and see you as soon as I can. I am, sir, your obedient servant, HARRIETT WILLIAMS." _ _ _ Witness continued—Had not seen the description of the prisoner. The reason why she said nothing about the letter was that her husband had forbidden her to speak about the murder. She did not give any informa tion to Inspector Thompson about the murder, or about the man who committed it, but only about the dark man. Her husband forbade her to speak of it to this day. Did not remember the date of the second letter. Could not say how she knew the date when she affixed it to the letter. Perhaps it was not correct. She had received a letter the same day to tell her of her mother's death. [The letter spoken of as the second letter, that addressed to Farber, was then read over.] She said that the reason she spoke of the young man as living in Gilbert-street was because she heard it from some people who were talking about the matter at the time of his apprehension. The men were having words in side the 801 l and Mouth. When witness saw the prisoner she said "That is the man." She did not say that to the warder, but to Inspector Thompson. Looked at two other men before the warder asked her if she identified either of the prisoners as being like the man she wanted. The moment she saw Groves she knew that the prisoner was the man whom she saw on the night of the murder, but she did not know that she had picked out the man th►t they had got for the murder. Did not know there was a reward, and did not know it now, except that she was told so by Mr. Sleigh in his eroni-examination yesterday. Knew the privoner's name wu Groves by hm.ring the other man call him Reexamined—Had destroyed the letter about her mother's death. Her mother lived at his., on the borders of Norfolk and Suffolk, near the railway station, and her name was Harriett Haley. Had been down several times to see her mother, but only once since she lived at Hiss. The letter which she had burned was not signed with any name. It was written as from a friend. Did not gn to the funeral. Did not know where her mother was buried. Her father was not living. Could not say how long it was since she saw her mother. It was nut twelve months ago. The prisoner was the taller of the two men by about half a head. Furber, Hitching., and Bowler were then brought in, and the witness said she could not identify them. Mr. W. Sleigh wished to ask her if she did not say yesterday that Bitching' was something like the cabman ; but Mr. 'Vaughan would not allow the question to be put, an it would not be evidence. By Mr. Vaughan—Came to London from Chichester with her husband on Friday and went out of town again on Saturday. I was about two or three yards away from the Bull and Anchor. I was on the opposite side of the street, which is very narrow. My mother was married twice. Her first husband's name was Williams, and the second Hairy. The depositions having been read over, Mr. W. Sleigh observed to the witness, who was about to sign them, that if there was any inaccuracy she ought to call attention to it now, as she would be held to this as • correct copy of her evidence. Mr. Vaughan begged Mr. Sleigh not to make any such observation, as it was most irregular. Mr. W. Sleigh—Then, perhaps, sir, you will tell her. Mr. Vaughan—l shall do nothing of the sort. She has given her evidence on oath, and is signing it voluntarily. It is presumable that she knows she will be liable to be questioned upon it hereafter. Mr. W. Sleigh said he should wish on a future occasion to have an opportunity of asking her a few questions in reference to the new matter now introduced. Mr. Poland—Certainly ; and also if anything more should occur to you in the interval. Mr. W. Sleigh applied for the prisoner's admission to bail. 41 r. Vaughan—Upon what ground! Mr. W. Sleigh—On the ground of the weakness of the evidence as to identity, the length of time Coe prisoner has been in custody, and the vast discrepancies between the evidence of Mrs. Janman and that of Mr. Vaughan—l could not entertain it for a moment. The prisoner was then remanded till Wednesday, the T.Srd inst. SHOCKING SUlClDE.—Yesterday morning an in quest was held by Mr. Carter, at the Railway Tavern, Putney, on the body of Roastunjee Burzoojie, aged 16 year., the son of Dr. Burzoojie, Hindoo gentleman, re aiding in the Victoria-road, Wimbledon-rk, who com mitted rzicide on the South Western Railway under very shocking circumstaoces. It appeared from the evidence that shortly before eight o'clock on Sunday morning last the deceased was discovered lying under the first bridge which croesee the South Western Railway on the London side of Putney station. He was lying ou his breast on the outside of the down line with his head over the rail. Police-constable Pearson was called to the body, when be found the head of the deceased smashed to atoms, only a small piece of the chin remained. No train had passed since the one from Waterloo station at 12 o'clock on Satur day night. In the breast pocket of the deceased the con stable found a letter addressed to his father, with a memo randum as foUows :—" He who finds me is requested to take my remains to the address of the envelope in my coat pocket.—Rooorrona." In the envelope were three letters written in English by the deceased to his father, mother, and brother, in which he announced that he was about to commit a great sin, and asked to be forgiven. He also expressed a wish to be buried in the churchyard of Wimbledon Church, at the top of Victoria-rued. One of the letters referred to a quarrel which he had with his father. Dr. Burzoojie, who was deeply affected, said his son was at home on Saturday night at 9 o'clock. He had recently complained of his inattention to his studies. The constable was re-called, and he stated that he saw marks on the slope by the aide of the line as if the deceased having descended from the road and placed his head on the rail. The jury acquitted the father of any unkind nese to his son, and returned a verdict of self-destruction while in a state of unsound mind. THE SUSPECTED MURDERS IN STAFFORDSHIRE.— Dr. Holyoske, of Mayer, has made a easeful examination of the bones of the corpse discovered the second in order by the searchers of the pit, who were carrying out the instructions of the deputy-coroner (Mr. W. H. Phillips) at the inquest on the remains of the infant whose body was found in the loaded guano bag, and he pronounced them to have been the bones of a child three years of age, whilst the boy whose leg bones were found tied together must have been seven years old. The time that the re mains have been in the water Dr. Holyoake supposes is about two years in the case of the child of three years, a longer period in the ease of the seven years old boy, :ind the infant perhaps about 15 months. The remains of neither present any indications that would go to furnish any clue as to the cause of death ; but the whole of the respective skeletons has not been recovered, and even if they had, the time that the remains have been in the water would make it very difficult for any cause to be traced. For the present the searchers have ceased their work. They have brought up all the evidence they have been able to secure with the aid of their drags ; but having to search through some twenty feet of water must make such an examination as has yet been made very incomplete. The cord with which the legs of the eldest boy were tied resemble thatching cord, which is of great strength. In spector Goddard, of the Staffordshire police force, with Sergeant Baldwin, and other men under him, are dili gently investigating the shocking mystery, and they believe that they are not altogether without a clue that may lead to the arrest of one or more of the murderers. THE FATAL EXPLOSION ON THE NORTH LONDON RAlLWAY.—Yesterday morning Dr. Linkeirter resumed, at the 4'cck Tavern, Higlibury, an inquiry relating to the death of John Matt, who lost his life by the explosion which took place at the coal depot of the North London Railway on Monday week. Mr. Cooper, solicitor, at tended on behalf of the North London Railway Company ; and Mr. Ltyton, solicitor, represented the widow and family of the deceased. The inquiry was adjourned on the last occasion for the purpose of allowing time for a go vernment inspector to examine the boiler, but on the re sumption of the investigation yesterday morning the coroner announced that the Board of Trade had not thought fit to interfere in the matter. Mr. W. Adams, the locomotive superintendent of the North London Rail way, was examined, and attributed the explosion to the thinness of the under part of the boiler. He stated that if he had known that the metal of the boiler had wasted he should have ordered its immediate removal. Before boilers burst they give indications of weakness by leaking. The objection to testing boilers was that it might strain them, and he considered the appli cation of the hydraulic test most unwise, inuiuuch as it would strain the boiler and render it more liable to explo sion. The removal of a stationary engine would involve an outlay of ro. , and the cost of fitting up a new one would be about 1:01., but he wished it to be understood that the question of expense would not weigh with the company in a matter of this kind. The thickness of the metal of boilers was tested by striking with a hammer, but that method would not prove effective in cases in which the boiler was imbedded in brickwork or other solid material. Mr. John Tinny, engineer and boiler maker, was next examined. He stated that the boiler in question was manufactured under his supervisor, in 1851, and was of the beat description. The mean " life" of the best boilers varied from 20 to 25 years. He thought the accident occurred from ex °naive pressure, and he believed the pressure at the time of the explosion was about 10016. to the square inch. The ordinary pressure of the engine was 50113. to the square inch. If the deceased had neglected the machinery, extra pressure would have been necessary to do the ordinary amount of work. J. Henry Adams, superintendent of the goods department of the North London Railway, was next examined, and stated that the deceased was required to lift a certain number of coal trucks before 7 o'clock on the morning of the aceident. The evidence having concluded, the jury, after an hour's deliberation, returned with a verdict of accidental death, accompanied by a resolution to the effect that a more efficient and careful method should be used in testing the stationary engines on the North London Railway. THE HANGMAN'S PRACTICAL DIRECTOR.—The following remarks, in a letter addressed to the Lancet by Dr. Tuke, on the question to hang or not to hang an alleged maniac under sentence of death, deserve considera tion :—" If, after due examination, he be pronounced sane, let him undergo his deserved punishment ; if insane, send him to a criminal asylum ; or, if the law inexorably demands his life, let him be hung as a declared ' mad man.'" Your alternative, Dr. Take, is the thing to do. Hang everybody who commits murder, whether he is mad or sane. If any madmen are murderers, hang all such madmen. Never mind the motives of criminals, look only to their acts ; retributive justice is sentimental bosh. You punish a convict for the crime which he has coin. mitted simply to deter others from committing the same, and to deter himself also from doing it again ; or to prevent him, in case you hang him. Hang every man who has done what the law calls murder ; hang him with the sole view of getting rid of him and consti tuting him a scarecrow. In that case hang • madman with no more scruple than you would have to lung a mad dog. This has got of late to be • fashionable preachment on the part of some public instructors. Very well. But if these counsels are to be followed, fleet legalise their prac tice. Be it enacted, then, duly and formally enacted, that everyone convicted of • crime capitally punishable shall be banged, whether he is a madman or not. Suppose we agree that expediency shall be the object exclusively re garded in the infliction of punishment, and righteousness be set altogether aside ; only, in the meanwhile, let a declaratory act of parliament definitely ordain that the former only shall be consulted, and that the latter shall not be considered at all in sending a man to the gallows.— Punch. - HEALTH RESTORED ET DR BARRY'S FOOD TO THE STOMACH, nerves, lungs and liver of old and young, curing dyspepsia (indtgestiool, constipation, diarrhom, acidity, Isead• acne, neuis, hysteria, palpitation, sleeplessness, debility wasting, cot, asthma, !avers, consumption, low spirits. 60,060 annual cures which had resisted all minsa.

The bankrupt was described as of Gower-street, Bed fonl-upure, of no occupation. His debts amount to 2.45 W. The creditors are 75 in number ' • their claims are principally for goods and money lent. The expenditure as stated at 400/., and 600/. for the two years preceding the bankruptcy. Mr. Aldridge The bankrupt being stated that he had some thousands of pounds when he came of age in l 8 it ; it was over 5,000/. He spent it in speculation ; the kat was two years ago. Mr. H. Stokes, bootmaker, of Probert-street, Haymars ket, a creditor for W. 145., opposed in person. He con tended that the bankrupt had property, he had married the slaughter of a rich man, Mr. Lamert. and was entitled to a large fortune of his own. There wan no doubt he bad plenty of money ; for though his appearance, now that ho was before the court, was rather " shady," when going about at the West-end he was a second Count D'Orsay. (I.auF,hter.) He asked for an adjournment in order that inquiry might be made as to the bankrupt's property. Several other creditor. expressed their intention to " rr s . e. Aldridge said the bankrupt had obtained from Mews. Emanuel a set of turquoise studs valued at and other valuable jewellery, for which the bankrupt had not accounted. He asked that he should furnish a goods account. After hearing Mr. Reed for the bankrupt, His Honour directed the bankrupt to furnish a cub and goods account for two years preceding the bankruptcy, and adjourned the case for that purpose. (Before Mr. Registrar Roche.) IN RE WILLIAM OGATON Yot'NG. The bankrupt was a ship-broker, of Newman's-court, Cornhill, residing at Palace-gardens-terrace, Notting-hill. He came to the court on his own petition on the 25th ult., ascribing his failure to badness of trade. He returns his debts at 24,212 f. The principal creditors are Messrs. Gibb and Co., Old Broad-street, 9,21X1/.; Messrs. Hall and Co., Aberdeen, 6,270:. ; and Messrs. Matheson, of Lombard. street, 2,24 W. This was the first sitting under the bankruptcy. Several proofs were admitted, and Mr. Slater, butcher, of High. street, Kensington, was chosen trade assignee. Messrs. Lawrance, Flews, and Boyer are the solicitors under the bankruptcy. The next sitting was appointed for the :nth of December. THE POLICE COURT& MANSION-HOUSE. J"laa Hilton, aged fl, residing inTilbany.road, Camber. well, was brought before the Lord Mayor on a charge of stealing 101. in cash, and a cheque on the London and County Bank, Lombard-street, for 27. 135., the property of Frederick U. Strange, lamp and oil importer, 41, Cannon street, City. It appeared that the prisoner had been in the employ ment of Mr. Strange as errand boy, and that on the let of October he was sent to the Imperial Bank to pay five cheques, a Post-office order for 71. 175., and 101. in gold into his master's account. The cheques were for 41., M. Fl.. sth, 14W., 361., and 2!. 135., the first four being on country banks, and the last on the London and County Bank. As the prisoner did not return to the warehouse inquiries were made, and it was ascertained that only the Post-office order and the cheque for 3.W. had been paid into Mr. Strange 's account, and that the cheque for 2/. 13e. had been cashed at the London and County Bank. The matter having been put into the hands of the police, Detective Hancock went on Monday to Albany-road, and finding the boy at home charged him with stealing 10/. and other money, belonging to his master. The prisoner, in reply, stated that be had lust the money and some of the cheques, and that he paid the remainder into the bank ; but at the police-station yesterday morning be gave a different version, alleging that he had given some of the cheques and the money to another boy to hold for a short time, and that when he returned the other boy had dis appeared ; that he then went and paid what he had left into the hank, but was afraid to return to his employer. Mrs. Hilton said the prisoner was her son, and would be 15 in December. His wages had been 154., then ria. 6d., and latterly 4a. For the last few months be had been a very good boy, but previously he had not behaved him self well. Ur. Strange said the boy's character was not very good. On being asked by the 'Lord Mayor, the prisoner said he would rather be dealt with at that court than sent to the Old Bailey for trial. The Lord Mayor—Then you plead guilty? Prisoner—Yes. After briefly consulting with Alderman Hale, the Lord Mayor said his brother magistrato thought as he did, that the prisoner was a much more artful boy than he ap peared. He (the Lord Mayor) did not believe a word of his atatements. The sentence of the court would be six mouths' imprisonment. GUILDHALL. John Norris ton who described himself as a stoker, but refuses to give his address ; Janes and IVilliant liya, two brother, living at No. 4, Stephen-street ; and George Show, of No. 7, Little Allen-street, Clerkenwell, were placed at the bar, on remand, before Alderman Healey, charged with being concerned in one burglary in the City and several at the West-end. Mr. king again appeared for Norrington and the brothers Dyer. The evidence given on the previous occasion showed that 91 umbrellas found with the Dyers were a pert of the pro ceeds of • robbery from the shop of Mr. Allen, 239, Re gent-street, umbrella manufacturer. Several duplicates were also found at Shaw's lodgings, and many of them re lated to property which had been stolen from a private house, No. 122 $ Gower-street, in the occupation of Mrs. Webb, and her family. In this case silver plate, wearing apparel, and other property were stolen, to the value of about 2901. The cases having been separately gone into, and former convictions having been proved against the Dyers and Norrington, Mr. Ring contended that the evidence against Norring ton was not sufficient to warrant a committal. Alderman Healey thought it was a case that should go before a jury. On being asked if they had anything to say, and receiv ing the usual caution, Norrington said—On my trial I shall be able to account for how I became possessed of that property. The other prisoners reserved their defence. The prisoners were then fully committed for trial. An application to give up a watch and chain found on one of the Dyers to the mother, to enable her to fee counsel for their defence, was refused, but their linen clothing was ordered to be given up to them. CLERIiMi WELL John Ileimphries,aged 51, a ace ve;ger, was charged on remand before Mr. Barker with committing • serious assault on George Barley, at Southgate-road, Islington. The evidence showed that the parties had some words together, the defendant's grievance being, as he stated,that the complainant owed him money. The defendant wanted the complainant to fight, end because he would not do so the defendant hit him violently on the head and knocked him down. So badly was the complainant injured that he was kept to his bed for some days, and was still suffer ing, and would do so for some days to oorne. In reply to the charge. The defendant said that what he did was done in self defence, and because the complainant owed him money. Mr. Barker said it was plain that a very violent assault had been committed, and ordered the defendant to pay • tine of V. and If. costs, or in default of payment two calendar months' hard labour in the House of Correction. The defendant, who Bald he had no money, was locked up in default. 61111d4 Smith, a prostitute, residing at 9, Brighton.street, St. Pancras, was charged with being drunk, disorderly, and making nee of obscene language. Police-constable Taylor, i.SI N, said that on Monday night, between ten and eleven o'clock, Le saw the de fendant, who was much the worse for liquor, outside a music Lail. She was making use of most dir,i, , usting lan guage, and when asked to go away she refused. She said she had Leen in the music hall, and would go again. Find ing that she caused a great disturbance ho locked her up. She bad been several times in custody as a disorderly pros titute. _ _ The defendant said she was very sorry for what she had done. She bad been to the mum ball with some friends, and bad unfortunately got a drop too much to drink. If she was let go this time she would take care never to offend any more. Mr. Barker said that drunkenness was no excuse for such conduct, and ordered the defendant to pay a fine of :is., or in default of payment she would have to go to the House of Correction for seven days. The has was paid. MARLBOROUGH STREET. thrablone ;hurter, alma the "Bmi. ^ Mr. ;hurler, and with • great many aliases, was brought before Mr. Tyr whin for final examination, charged with obtaining rings, value 250/., from Mr. D. Cave, jeweller, Mount-street, and a quantity of articles from Madame Battens, dress maker, Berners-street. Some iilditional evidence havinfr been given, Mr. Tyrwbitt considered the evidence of stealing in one case, and conspiracy in the other, bad been made out. Police-sergeant Cole produced a paper showing that the prisoner. whose real Mlle is said to be Clowes, got up a subscription for • poor family, received about 200 f., and only paid the family a small sum. Tyterbitt sent the prisoner for trial. THE MURDER IN BLOOMSBURY. John Groves, the alleged Fenian, charged with the mauler of the bandsman 11`Donne11, was again brought before Mr. Vaughan yesterday afternoon at the Bow-street Police-court. The prisoner had been brought to the station-house at about half-past 9 o'clock in the morning, in the prison van, which was guarded as before by armed police, mounted, and riding in and on the van and two cabs. The assem blage in the streets during the day was not so great as on former occasions, even when temporarily augmented by the additional attraction of the apprehension of Mace. The court itself, however, was if possible more densely packed than before. Mr. Poland, instructed by the Solicitor to the Treasury, conducted the prosecution ; and Mr. Warner Sleigh ap peared for the prisoner. Mr. Poland begged to be allowed to state the course he wished to pursue. He proposed to examine the missing cabman and one or two other witnesses, and also a hair dresser, whosold some false bairtoa man whom he believed to be the prisoner. A still more important witness bad been examined at the inquest, but with respect to that person, a married woman, it was desirable both for the crown and defence, and in the interests of truth and justice, that an opportunity should be given for an ample inquiry into her antecedents, and into the character of her testi mony, before placing her in the box. After proceeding as far as he was able to do with the new witnesses now in attendance, he should ask for a further remand for the pur pose named. Mr. W. Sleigh protested against a furtherremand of the case before the examination of the woman referred to. She was examined at great length at the inquest, and her evidence had never been out of his mind for the last twenty. four hours. He could detect several important discre pancies in her statement, and it was of the utmost import ance that be should have an opportunity of convicting her of these discrepancies, by cross-examination, before time had been given her to reflect upon what she had stated, and to correct her mis-statements. He hoped, therefore, that this opportunity would be given to him to-day. Mr. Vaughan said it was for the counsel for the crown to conduct their case in the way in which they thought most expedient. If her evidence was found to be unreliable, it was probable that she would not be called at all ; and if she was called ultimately, the same opportunity of testing her evidence, by cross-examination, would be given to the prisoner's counsel. Mr. Warner Sleigh bowed to the decision of the court, merely uttering his protest against the remand. George Cox, 29, George-street, Foley-place, oil and colounnan, said—On Friday night, 27th Sept., at about a quarter to 12 o'clock, I was crossing from Bloomsbury square to Hart-street with a friend named Kirke. At the corner of Bloomsbury-street and Hart-street I noticed two men, of whom the prisoner was one. He was the shortest of the two. The other was a tall man, from Mt.loin. to fift. I They were reading a letter by the light of a lamp. I know the time because my friend and I went to the Bull and Anchor a few minutes afterwards and noticed the clock. When we went away we left the men there. I heard of the murder the next day while in my shop. I afterwards gave information to the police. I saw the prisoner at this court to-day, and I picked him out from a number of men and identified him. Oroas-examined by Mr. W. Sleigh—l ►m not a mas ter. I work at 198, Holloway-road. I have worked at the trade nine or tot years. I have been in about five situa tions in that time, and left all with good characters. On this occasion I h.td been to see my uncle. I did not see him. I called at a public-house in Northampton-street about a quarter past ten. My friend did not go with me. I met him there. I don't know the name of the public house. I can tell you the name on the lamp—it is Moody. Igo there to see my uncle. I don't go to his residence. I don't know it. I don't often go there to look for him. Mr. W. Sleigh—How many times have you been there since the 27th' Mr. Vaughan could not see the relevancy of these questions. Mr. W. Sleigh was sorry for it. He must press the question. The witness said he had only been there once since the day. He first heard of it on the Saturday. He had not told the inspector that be met his uncle at a public•house. Part of his statement to the inspector was taken down at the time and read over. He was asked if it was correct, and he said yes. Did not mention to the inspector that they had not taken down the whole. Told Superin tendent Serie that they had taken a part of hi■ statement. He was here cross-examined at great length as to when he lint saw a report of the cue in the papers; upon which point he spoke with some uncertainty. He mentioned that he saw some account of the occurrence in Lloyd's Newspaper. He also stated that be read a portion of the report of the exami nation at the police-courts. Mr. W. Sleigh then read a portion of the introduction to one of the police reports, giving a description of the appearance of Groves when placed in the dock, and the witness stated that he had I seen that before he went to identify the prisoner. When be went to see Superintendent Serie, at the Hunter-street station, he knew that a reward had been offered, but did not know the amount. He saw the placard offering 1001. reward while at the station. He knew Superintendent Berle before. Had been a witner before—some live or six times. Mr. W. Sleigh—On your own account? Witness—Yee ; and assisting the police as well. Mr. W. Sleigh—Oh ! I shall net ask you any more questions. Witness—Thank you, air. Re.examined—l first spoke to the police on Friday night. I don't remember the date. I think it was a week after the man was shot. I rim not quite certain whether either of the two men had a beard. I think the prisoner had whiskers. Mr. James Jennings—l am a hairdresser, at 2.5, Tich borne-street, at the top of the Haymarket. I sold a false beard and moustache in the week commencing Monday, Sept. 16. It was what we call an entire beard. It was of a lightish colour. I did not communicate with the police. They came to me one day last week. I went to the House of Detention, and saw thirteen or fourteen prisonen in the cells. Each prisoner stood in his eell, and was called to the front. I had seen seven or eight persons before I saw the prisoner. I fancied I recognised the prisoner, but I should not like to say positively that he is the man. Mr. Poland—What is your belief . . Witness—My memory u to faces is very treacherous. Mr. Poland—l must ask for an answer in terms ;do you believe he is, or do you believe he is not, the man Mr. W. Sleigh objectel to the witness being pressed further, lie had given ar. answer, and the more the learned counsel pressed it the more he got in the mire. Mr. Poland—Then I wonder you object to it under those circumstances. Mr. Vaughan asked the witness if he had any belief at all. The witness sold be fancied the prisoner was similar in the face to the man. To Mr. Poland—lf I said I believed it was not the man I should say wrong ; and if I said I believed it was the man I should be in a muddle again. Cross-examined by Mr. W. Sleigh—l passed the prl. soner's cell before I said that I thought he was the man. I did not, as a matter of feeling, like to say so before him. Mr. W. Sleigh—Have you seen this advertisement in the Papapers? Witness—No ; I seldom see advertisement'', except occa sionally a theatrical advertisement. Mr. W. Sleigh—Then you have no positive belief one way or other! Witness—No, my memory is so bad. To Mr. Vaughan—l dressed the beard on his face. He had a little whiskers, which I worked in with the artificial. We remarked at the time that it was strange a man should want to wear a false beard at that time of day, and that be must be doing it for the purpose of disguising himself. He went away wearing the beard. Mr. Poland—What time of day was it? Witness—lt was about the middle of the day. Frederic Elan was called, but did not answer. Henry Stephens, 46, Seckford-street, Clerkenwell, cash. box manufacturer—On the morning of the 28th, at about one o'clock, I was in Orange-street, which is to the east of Southampton-row, on the left as you go from Holborn. I was crossing Kingsgate-street, in an easterly direction. IMy attention was attracted by the report of firearms. I ran in the direction from which the sound came, and met Ferber running is Vernon-place. I ran after him and , seized him. I asked him what was the matter. He said, " Where is there a policeman? —my friend is shot." After some conversation I released him. I did not hold him • minute. I went towards the square and met M'Donnell, also running. He staggered, and I, finding he was the man that was shot, caught him. I laid him down. He asked me to take a handkerchief and stop the blood, but I thought a doctor would do it better. I went to fetch one, but when I knocked they would not answer the door. I went back, and afterwards saw him taken away in a cab. I did not see any other person running before I met Farber. When I beard the shot I was going eastward, but I turned back. Mr. Poland stated that several other witnesses whom he had intended tocall to-day were, he was informed, not in attendance. He should, therefore, have to apply for an adjournment. Those witnesses, he thought it right to observe, would not be enabled to identify the prisoner. Mr. Vaughan—Then I think now th►t Mr. Sleigh's former application ought to be eassidered. I am bound JLIRKETS. MANUFACTL'ItES.-11rimuariscp, °cr. 15.—Th e attend:thee of buyers in our market to-day has again hero scanty, and business transactions have been much of the same character as during the last two months. The selec- tion of small parcels in ordinary goods to keep up variety and a few purchases in new patterns for the winter trade seem to constitute almost the whole business of the market. The home merchants have done some little during the week, but their general complaint is that small ord er . only come in and that speculation is out of the question in every branch. WOOLS.—Hunnzusrmn,'Ocr. 15.—The demand for wools still continues languid, manufacturers buying only for immediate consumption. Prices continue at the rate este. blished by recent sales in London. COTTON.—Lrrmoor., Oct. 15.--Good inquiry at yea. terday's prices.

The market to-day has been of a very disappointing character to spinners and manufacturers, who expected to find a considerable improvement in demand as well as in prioes. In shipping yarn' there has been rather a good business, but to effect it sellers have had to accept the low prices current last Friday. In home trade yarn. the market has been steadier, and a fair average business is reported ; but there has been no advance on Friday's rates obtained by spinners or their agents. In cloth, up to the end of Last week, we had the same tendency to depression in prices which has had to be reported so often during weeks and even months met, with less general inquiry than had mostly accompanied the decline. The recen t large busi ness and improved prices in cotton at Liverpool stimu lated the cloth market yesterday into some appesranos of greater activity, and the advanced prices asked for yarns reacted, in a certain measure, on the quotations for mane. factored goods; but although the inquiry was pretty active, it proved a difficult matter for manufacturers to realise any material advantage on the rates of last week, and but little, if any, bulk of business was done at any advance. To-day there are no indications of any improve. went in prices being obtainable. Buyers are offering orders at the quotations of last week, but even at each rates they are not by any mane disposed to operate ex tensively. The market closes altogether with a dull and , somewhat inactive aspect. WOOLLEN.—LEEns, Ocr. 13.—There has not been a large attendance of buyers at the cloth halls this morning. The out-town houses have been poorly represented, and the amount of business transacted has been limited to a certain extent by the heavy state of the atmosphere, which has again been an impediment to the transfer of goods gene. rally. The demand for tweeds in the coloured hall con tinues without abatement. A moderate amount of business has been done in this class, which would, however, have been considerably larger had the weather been more favourable. Still several tolerably large parcels have changed bands in the heavier makes of low and medium qualities. The coating and plain cloth departments have been quiet, and the parcels which have been made have been simply in cases of immediate requirement. Rairlists have com manded a steady sale in the white market. The trans actions which have taken place have not been large, though pretty numerous. Beavers and similar winter goods have also been moderately well transferred, bat the caution which has been used in the selections show no inclination to increase present stocks to a larger extent than is absolutely necessary. Prices still retain their position. CORN.-HULL, Ocr. 15.-At to.day's market a mode. rate supply of English wheat. At the opening farmers commenced with extravagant prices, but towards the close ' the bulk was cleared off at Cully 2a. per qr. advance, beat ran, of new red making 73a. to 74a. per 504 lbs. to the I grower.

Barley, beans, and peas Is. per qr. dearer. LIVERPOOL. OCT. 15.-We had a very good attend. anoe at to-day's market, but in wheat only a small business was transacted at Friday's rates. Flour in moderate de mand, and 21. 6d. per sack higher than on Tuesday. Indian corn in limited request at figures ranging from Is. to Is. 6d. advance over this day week. Egyptian beans, 2a. 6d. to 3e. per qr. dearer. Oatmeal in good request, at an advance of ls. bd. to 2s. per load. Malt easier. Barley Id. to 24. per bushel dearer. Oct'. 15.-The demand for wheat remains un abated in activity, and a large business is doing at an ad vance of 3e. to 4s. per qr. from the rates of last Tuesday, being Is. to 2a. over the currency of Friday. Barley is again rather higher. Beans are held for fully 2a more money. Oats and other articles quite as dear. Lout, OCT. 15.-The weather has been variable during the past week, and a good deal of rain has fallen, which has proved beneficial to all field work. At this day's market the supply of wheat was short, a clearance on made at a further advance of 3s. per qr. upon last Tues day's rates. Barley Is. per qr. higher, with more inquiry for malting samples. Grinding as las t week. Beans 2a. and cats ls. per qr. higher than on this day se'nnight.

Nawcsertz•on-Tate, Orr. 15.-The weather has been very unsettled since Saturday, a good deal of rain having fallen in the intervals. If the weather take up, seeding operations will be again resumed. At our market this morning we had again a good supply of new wheat bow the country, with fair arrivals from the coast, but the eon. dition of farmers' samples being very indifferent, great difficulty was experienced in effecting sales even at • re duction of la. to 2a. per qr. upon Saturday's rates, whereas anything choice, whether south country or foreign, fully maintains that des 's currency, but the trade lost the buoyancy of Satur day. Flour was held with considerable firmness, but the amount of business passing was limited. Malting barley wanted, and tending upward. Malt, unlr's tine, neglected. In other articles little variation can be noted. [Advertisement.] HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.
