Ora of the "Friends in Council" deprecates the trivial endearments with which people who attach no meaning to their words ere ;n the habit of epi loguing the most ordinary and most indifferent letter. Even where there is affection, he remarks, it runs the risk of being written away in this idle fashion, and of wes'ing itself out in words. Why should then not be the same chance of mutual de trition in the csai of " natural enemies," who are always snapping at each other from ancient habit rather than from actual malice, and why should not the old animosities write themselves away, and leave nothing but neighbourly toleration and that sort of satisfied indifference which is safer for both than too much love ! On this principle we are encouraged to hope for the happiest malts from the affectionate acerbity with which the two mast civilised nations in the world have been lately exchanging the most polite nears and the most endearing snarls. Surely if we go on writing to each other across the Channel in this tow and temper, and winding up jour letters with such tendernesses as " Most untrulz " yours," " Yours insincerely," " Ever detestingly, Remaining with all wont wishes," "Yours, hate " fully always," or, " Accept the manna's of our " most distinguished enmity ;"—we shall cad by burning out the lest sparks of the old grudges, and becoming the best friends in the world. According to the Coosseitestrauseel there is a positive danger to the alliance in anything like mutual civilities, and if an enlightened Frenchman speaks of England as be finds her, in a frank and friendly spirit, he is likely to make bad blood between the two nations, and to rouse has fellow countrymen to the highest pitch fifer saperation. A few days since, M. M meat CHITALIii who had been over to England on • visit, to pre side at the meeting of a Decimal Amociation at Bradford, addressed to his friends of the Aurae( dor Debate a couple of letters oa the relations of Franco and England ; a subject always of incalculable inte rest, and at this critical moment in all men's thoughts. hi. MICIERL CNICALIER is not one of those facile feuilletonishe who come across to Weft ter-square for six days sod a Sunday, and thin go back with their souls full of ennui and their menthe full of fog, to depict their dreadful experiesees of our society and institutions; he is simply ow of the most distinguished economists in Franco and in Europe; a member of the Institute, a Coaacillor of State ; a man of ripe and various culture, of travel. of thought and action, deeply versed in all the great industrial problems of the century, and full of honest admiration for the energetic freedom of the Anglo-Saxon race. Twenty-tire years ago his report on the United Statee was bosomed with the most flattering eulogy by no less an authority than Huusourr, and in the pursuit of an official inquiry into the causes of our commercial crisis in 1838, he gained that pro found and practical insight into the commercial and industrial activity of England which, even at the cost of being stigmatised as an A nolomane, he has ever since with unfailing firmness and generosity °w haled, in the teeth of the manifold social, political, and commercial prejudices which assailed him as Professor of political economy at the College of France. He was the friend and associate, and is now the legitimate successor of FREDERIC BASTIAT, as an ardent and intrepid apostle of Free Trade. As a freetrider he is of course a lover of peace, and • despiser of that vainglory which makes his country men so fond of military servitude. In either chant.- ter, whether as an open friend to England, or as a declared lover of peace, he is regarded almost as a natural enemy by all bigoted Protectionists—by all traditional Bompartists—hy all who worship the ldil of the Plow Vendome—by all Socialist', whose ideal of human exaltation is (quality in degradation under a single yoke. M. tea u alt, is his two recent letters, which like all that SOON from his pen are models of bnlliant common erase, extols the marvellous pro ductive faculties of England, the laborious persever ance, intelligence, and enterprise of her people; he honestly commods the instinct of self-preservation which commands her to increase her naval forces, and to strengthen her satirical defences when all the rest of Europe is in arms; and he has the courage to admit that the superiority of her fleets le • (lemma of life and death to the first commercial power of the world. All this is supremely dietratsfal and ohne:loos to the Chnehturesartal, wham ready writer instantly denounce the friend of political and commercial liberty and of peace as • treasonable enthusiast, a deserter of his country's Sag, a traitor to his country's glory, a worshipper at forbidden altars. Has N. CMITALUIS boss lasi& an English theatre pertinently rake M. Bonn: if he had he would have seen Whine bet troselsdies of French plays. This we mutt sews is a bit, a palpable hit; but it only deammetasins (in the monomical point of view) how thoroughly wo carry oat the principles of free trade, without wee waiting for reciprocity. We shall neat be told, M. BU BAT suggesta, that the Elmhob its the Ant of all nations in taste and art. This is too bad, for not eves M. cllgval.ll3 has had the temerity to admire IHE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER I*. the cookery of " that foggy isle." M. CaIIVALEMee highest praise of England, after all, amounts to this—England, as a commercial, iadwalrial, and fees-trading nation, has immense interests to pro tect in every sea ; she has given the most precious bastages to peace—but if she is attacked, she will dal knockdown blows. The Coiestittaionnel seems to think that it was the duty of M. Cuaysualt to writs home that England was going to the dogs, and totally incapable of self-defenes. Bat we are sot at all persuaded that he would haws served the interacts of the allivoge, which even the Owittitetienwsl miasma to advocate, better by saying that Ragland was anew prey than by remarking that she was • precious, and porsibly an ugly, cus tomer. We do not Mtn& much importance to inch squibs and cracker, me the psmpblet with the alarming " Gwen l l'Anglais," which that amiable humanitarian Socialist, M. Loots JOURDAN, has lately dung into the air. On the contrary, we re joice that M JOURDAN has said his say, as oar Surrey volunteers are determined to flee their rifles, " la t►e open," where it makes a little fizz, and Awe nobody any he , m. In all probability M. JOORDAN'S windy indignation is perfectly sinters; le thinks be is serving Femme, and therefore " Humanity," by declaiming against English "egoism," and who knows but with those slashing stvokes of the pen he may be cutting the Saes Canal ! At all events, we are glad that be is allowed to write and to print, since to M. JOURDAN we are indebted for the noble words of M.PZTRAT on bakalf of the land and home of liberty Setter, we say, a hundred times that the JOURDANS sad the Britain, and the VEUILLOTS should bark themselves hoarse, that bloodthirsty lyrics should be set to music by authority for the Zonaves, and that the Central bureau of public opinion should flood the provinces with savage abuse of " that foggy " isle," than that all this religious rancour and hamanitarian hate should be gat acrid up in the Roily bosoms of bilious publicists, and that we should fancy ourselves beloved by men who can never hear the name of England men tioned without foaming at the mouth. We are infatuated enough to believe that this peculiar rage is fu less dangerous when it is unmerited. Our own sensations teach us that were we less accustomed to publio speaking than we are in this t pantry we should be far more sesceptible to the bad language of our neighbours ; es it is, we despair of teaching them how great a load of evil-speaking England can endure, whilst she contiones to merit the generous sympathy of those enlightened men to whom the land of liberty is a secmid country. We have been earl:need, however, to find such • writer as M. PRZVOST-PAHADOL, who, like M. PITILAT, knows England. her language, literature, laws, and institutions intimately and by heart, reproaching is with our " Isolation" in Europe, and taunting us with our armament, as the penalty we pay for our neutrality. Can M. Paavo•t-PAaaDot. pretend that England would be mare honoured or mon secure now if she had fought side by side with France at Solferino, and signed the peace of Villafraoca ? Dors he mean that England ahonld have fought with Austria? Is England more honoured or more wore for having fought side by side with the Zonavee at Sebastopol? Questions we decline to answer, but which suffice to show thit the best service England can render to the pose* and liberty of Europe is to keep the peace herself, and to make her own rights, liber ties, and interests secure. LATEST INTIILLIGRIVUE. PIEDMONT. The Minister of Marine has ordered that 'Tuscan and Modenese mariners shall be received, with ou t restriction as to number, amongst the crew of Sardinian vessels, and that Sardinian sailors shall embark upon the vessels of Tummy and Modena without giving the gal rantees usually required before sailing under a foreign flag. "These important regulations," says the Piedmonts,* Gazette, " Wive for their object the identification, as much as possible, of the navies of the governments of Central Italy with those of the government of the Msg." TUSCANY. We reed in the Tutu Nowiterr: '. The Tuscan deputation after its departure from Berlin, had the honour of being received officially and is a friendly manner by Prince Gortchakoff at Warsaw on the 25th ult. In returning through Berlin it also had the honour of being received offi cially and with kindness on the let by Baron de Schleinitz." THE REGENCY OF CENTRAL ITALY. PARIS, Tr ESDAT. The Constirestionnel of to-day, in an article signed by its chief editor, Grandgoillot, on the regency of the Prince de Crignan, says : " The acceptation of the regency by the Prince de Carignan would have canted the open interven tion of Sardini► in the affairs of Central Italy, and then Sardinia could not h►ve prevented, on the other hand, the entry of the Neapolitan troops into the Roman territory." THE UNITED STATES. .--.6.- OPROW 0171 OWN COI NEW YOB.X, Nov. I. The trial of "Old Brown," as he is called, was brought to a clam lest night by a verdict of guilty. This result of fours. tacit •1 no surprise, bat the indecent and inhuman pri eipivtlion by which the whole procsedings have been marked have excited a reaction, even in the feelings of the ultra corset Ca tivo", in the prieoner's favour. He was, as I men tioned in my lit letter, brought into court on a bed, with four revere wounds in various pets of his body, and @resigned while unable is sit up without mist *nee. Moreover, though he dt elered that he could have no confident e in the Virginian @sunset arsigned him by the court, consideilng the excited state of the public mind, end the ferocious hostility ex hibited tswards him by all demos of the community, he wes refired the two days' delay that would have been nrcelsary to pro cure legal erliegen!, from the Free States, upon which he could rely. The consequence was that the mem bers of the Messachusetts and Ohio her, whom he employed, did not make their apparent:o in court until all the evidence for the pre:rcurion was in ; end they were corer .1 led to enter upon their duties without r insultalion with the prisoner, without any accurate knowledge of the facts, and little or none of the Virginian criminal code. On Saturday evening they had been without sleep for two nigh ts — pertly spent in travelling, partly in study—an pressed for en adjournment until Monday inimaing, to enable them to recover from complete physical exhaustion. The prosecution fiercely opposed it, on the ground that all the women in Virginia " were harmed by alarm and anxiety as long as the trial lasted," and that the jurymen wanted to get home to their wives; and the summing-up was accordingly commenced alter nightfall, and continued during the evening, soil the prisoner's counsel only escaped having to address the jury through the extreme lateness of the hour. The trial closed yesterday, with the result I have stated above. For gross inhumanity, for fero cious indifference to the commonest claims of fair play, it has never had any writhe in this country. There are, I am glad to say, no American " State Trials;" and the only parallel in modern times for the mockery of legal foams which we have just wit nessed is to be found in the reports of the Irish treason oases in 1798, or of the Scotch courts when Lord Broxfield adorned the bench of the Court of Session. Before the week is over the Virginian ladies will breathe freely over Old Brown's grave, and the Virginian militia lay down its arms in pesos of mind; but the abolitionists have nevertheless achieved a moral triumph. Brown's attempt at first excited great horror, but the absurd panic into which it threw the Virginians, and the cowardly eagerness for his blood which was displayed in the meaner of conducting the trial, has done much to turn the tide of sympathy in his favour. Desperate attempts have been made by the demo crats to fasten the charge of complicity in the attempt, upon Seward and other leading republicans. It was generally supposed that the outbreak would have a serious influence upon the fortunes of the free-soil party in the coming election, by alienating a large number of its timid members, who naturally shrink from supporting any doctrines which seem to suggest, let it be ever so remotely, a social convulsion. Bat these efforts to fasten some portion of Brown's guilt upon a large number of honourable and eminent men have failed so im mensely that the affair is already beginning to lose most of its political importance. Not a particle of evidence, in spite of the revelations which we have been promised every day for the last fortnight, has yet been adduced in support of the charge. The extreme abolitionists, it is true, make no conceal ment of their admiration for Brown and his exploits, but between them and the republicans there is still a wide gulf, much as the events of the last few years have done to narrow it. As regards the unfortunate prisoners themselves, no party and no cause in the world need be ashamed of them. I doubt if the annals of any country can show instances of greater fortitude, greater heroism, a stronger reliance upon the weight of an idea than these men have exhibited.

W. G. Ho , • *set I. the °hair. lettere approrinv of the objects of the meeting were read from the Duke of Northumberland, Lord Overstoce, the Earl of Ripon, Sir Wm. Gomm, Lieutenant- Colonel Crichton Stuart, ko. Several subscription. of 101. were annonnood, sod one of 201. Irom the London General Omnibus Company. The CHAIRMAN said he hoped the fact of his being called to the chair was a token that the titration was for the preerestion of pews. (Ern, hear.) He believed it wee the uniaereel desks of the nation that the country should remain at peace with all the notices and languages of the work. (Hear, btu.) When they looked round at their neighbours, they found it difficult to discover any cause of quarrel with any. They were in a state of profound peers, appereutly at hest, with their nearest nsightsur ally. Their fleet* sod their armies were combined together, sad they were pursuing together the path of civil . leetlest. Yet there prevailed instead of peace sad tranquillity wnetery feeling. Some Mere to say that wee might take place before • long time elapsed, but he hoped it nes only one of the rumours that sometimes alms over mankind without say real foundation, and that it would leave no Uwe behind. As a change, however, was not only parible, but probable, it behoved them to take such step u were best tined for the preeervation of peace ; and if piece could not be preserved, then such measures as would pat them in a position to meet the unhappy state of things that must ensue should he taken. A war between England and nonce would ho one of the greatest calamities that could lappen, for it would not only effect the two nations themselves but the whole world. Therefore what• ever government or tuler brought about such a elate of things would be guilty of a great aims against humility. This movement was gathering strength throughout the country end it would sot do for the inhabitants of the royal sod loyal width of St. Martin's to be behind hand. The metropolis was the heart of the country, and if a blow was struck it would be struck at the metropolia. It therefore behoved the metropolis to be to the vanguard of the movement, and of the heers rostropo ). lis that parish ought to be amongst the foremost. (C Mr. Scott' moved the first resolution es follows That in the opinion of the mt sting, fur the purpose of strengthen ing the national army for the internal defence of the country, it was expedient to form a vrAunteer rife corp.." Then were nine perished in Westminster, and If each parish formed its own company, there wield be • brigade of at least 1000 man for the whole of Westminster. Though they were • little behind hand, he hoped they would make up for lost thee. _ _ Mr. Bose emended the resolution. He said that there was no use banking the question they were met to consider. It was dee opinion of military men that one or two armies could he landed in this country and that there wean° military lore, ready to resist them. Civilians mutt in this met bow to the opinion of military men. (Hear, hear.) He was not going to abuse the Emperor Napoleon. Far from it. But he mast tell them that the Emperor Napoleon had crested the moot magnificent steam navy in the world. He did ma give the Emperor Napoleon all the credit of creating that navy; foe a consideration of the state of the French navy was a mat ter which bad been bequeathed to him by the French republic of 1818. The French nstion had no need of so large a navy to the protection of her commerce. She could only want it for the purpom of aggression, and they knew that it Inman idea of the first Napoleon diet all tee French navy should bacon , trued in the Channel. In addition to their navy the French had en army of 600,000 men ' and amongst them he regrettc to say were pagan ooldiees from Africa who would cat one's threat fora glees of wine. This oountry did not want war; they wanted peace; but it the French government forced war upon them, they would meet France with the heath= of old times—with Agincourt and Cressy and Polotkris and Trafalgar and the Nik, in their memoriam, and they would do as their ancestors did—beat the French. (Chasm.) They would rather receive French wines, velvets, and site; but If France imported weapons of Will into England, then they tuna meet them and beat them. (Cheers.) Mr. Soots then urged on the young men to Join the movement in person, and the old ta subscribe their money. . . Thi Motion wag put and carried. Mr. DALSTON moved a resolution, to the effect that the best mode of organiaing such a force for the city of Waist minster, would be by local sections of ineopaniee is the mental perishes, to be eit died in their own looditiee with local officers of such rock as might be afterwards deter seised by the lord-lieutenant, and to be enema by the corps themselves. He thought it would be advantageous to form the corps by lord sections, as it would promote good feeling, monomy, sad emulation. Mr. Pantos seconded the motion, end hoped they would not glop short at 1,000, but would raise 2,000 men if required. (Cheers.) Mr. MAI/MALL spoke in favour of the resolution. He believed that the Emperor Napoleon was too clever, shrewd, sad knowing, to attempt anything so desperate sod rash as au thvaatou of this corutry. But Geeing that he had on army of 600,000 men, be might be forced against his will into such • course. Their best policy, there fore, wee to take ouch a *tap ma they were then met to pro mote. (Mom.) The motion wee then put sad carried. Mr. ANTIIO3IOII Moved the sent resiolation, to the effect that own of the eectlins should be coosidered se forming part of the voloniesr ride corps of the city of Westminster, under the command of each sueerior Boor so might be ap pointed by the lord-lieutenant, or other proper authority. Mr. BARTON seconded the 0201i00, which was unroinsmaly adopted Mr. M.P., congratulated the parish on the numbers present and the enthumissm evinced. It augured well for the future efficiency of the corps. He regarded this movemeet as a peaceful and economical one, fur the stronger the volunteer body at the commend of the goverment. eo much less would it be neceenary tokenism the standing army. He waggled to be able to inform thew that governinentcontan- plated Providing all the mow for the volunteer nogg, which would bring sdmimion into them within the range of rU chimes of the imuniry. (Hear, hear.) He ormeincled by moving the formation of • committee to oarry oat the object of the meeting. Mr. Lieu amonded the motion, wHob wry tarried. A vote of thanks to the Chairman eirmiattaad the pro wading.. lIIILLAII'S MONTHLY CONCERTS.

THE FOG.—(THIS DAY.)—During the whole of yesterday, and throughout this morning, a dense fog *greed over the metropolis and Its suburbs—the southern dinrkts suffering the most severely. It was found impos sible to wry on business in the City without the aided gee or candles ; and much obstruction woe ceased to the teak In the roadways of all the principal thoroughfare.. A new bee Mao:Men* some of them of a serious nature, occurred through persons coming into contact with vehicles, and being run over—and several cases were tithes to the Westminster and other hospitals. On the river a good deal of damage was leaked amongst the shipping through vessels coming into oollialon, but no thee of lose of life had last night been re ported. It is a singular fact that notwithstanding the dense ness of the fog, and the extreme cold in town, at Sydanham the weather was bright and warm, and the Crystal Pathos shone north in atilt, wonted beauty. The fog did not cesm to extend In that direction beyond New-cross. At Upper Holloway also the sun those brightly throughout the day. Tai LATE FRAUD AT NOTTINORAII.—On Satur day morning, Michael Flood, deeerited aa an auctioneer sad dealer In foreign fancy article., Shade-hill, Hatt'heiter, was takes before the county magistrates, et the Shire hall Not. tieghani, charged with obtaining a quantity of starch from Messrs Thome. Hall end Sots, starch manufacturers. New Lotto., near Nottingham, by means of fraud (the particu lars of which have already appeared in the Zayre:o). It appeared from the additiosal evidence adduced that Mr. Ralderate (the gentleman who Coat the halves of 8001. worth of Beak of England notes), in his counting-house, in the presence of hi. cashier, Mr. Brow), cut the notes in qua d" and the latter paid oeethalf of them into the Bank, sod the other half were lust in September by Mr. Holdaate. The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said he had no iMention od fraud when be sent to Meson. Hall. The half of the note he forwarded to that pattern= wee nne among several others which he bad received from Mr. Faulkner, of Mac. clashed, and hie wife had lost the other half of the same note. The prisoner's solicitor (Mr Briggs), on behalf of hisclient pleaded not guilty; the bench then committed him for trial at the eissioes. Application was made to allow the prisoner ball, bat the magistrates declined to axept it, and Flood was forthwith wet to prison. . . FRIGHTFUL BRUTALITY.—OR Thursday laat, Charles and Williem Bennett, labourers in the employ of Mr. Fisher, farmer, Soave were charged with mastoids( Sash Wattle, of WilleebarOash. The propecutrie who wee very lame from the injuries th e had received, dep osedi that she met the two grinners on the previous day . at the Kent Arms Ina, in charge of a wagon. She was going to Brom ley•green, to be housekeeper to • person there, end she asked them if they would give her a ride in their waggon as they were going In that direction. They consented, end she started with them between three and four o'clock. When near Kisganortb, they made indecent proposals to her, to which she refused to secede, when they raid if the would not she should get down and walk. They did not stop the waggon, but obliged her to jump out; in mom pathos of which she fell, and ooe of the wheels passed over bet.

" The Prince in his reply said : " ' I am deeply moved by your offer, and tender my thanks to the assemblies and the peoples of Central Italy, who have given me so great a proof of their confidence. I believe that, making this offer, you are influenced less by my personal merit s than by your devotedness towards the Bing, and by your feelings, which are not only liberal and national, but also those of order and respect for monarchical institutions. ." Weighty representations, reasons of political propriety, and the approaching Congress, deter me, mach to my regret, from responding to your appeal, or accepting the chugs offered to me. This for bearance on my part and the sacrifice I am thus making will prove more useful to the interests of our common country than if I bad acted otherwise ; nevertheless, I thought to do an act of service in designating the Chevalier Boncompagni as the per son who ought to be entrusted with the regency of Central Italy. " 'Return my thanks to the people you represent : tell them that their perseverance and their general conduct deserve the sympathies of Europe; tell them to reckon always on the Xing, who will support their wishes, and who will never abandon those who entrust their destinies to his loyalty.' " The Prince deCarignan then summoned the Ch evalier Boncompagni to undertake the regency, who intimated his readiness to aooept the honour and re sponsibility of that office. Signor Boncompagni is about to leave immediately for Central Italy to enter upon his functions." AUSTRIA. TRIESTIL, Nov. 14.

Owe of the most brutal assaults ever known to be • perpetrated it the district was brought under the notice of the magistrates, at the West Riding Ponce-court, Halite:, on Saturday last, when five rough-loooking men from the neighbourhood of Brighouse, named Samuel &trishaw, George Chappell, William Stott. Cheeks Cookson, and John Marsden, were charged with a scandalous and barbarous attack upon two laelplest &miler. The case (ems the Manchester Examiner) bas created rimy great excitement, particularly at Brighouse and &Hand, when the ft Oleg against the ruffians who committed this dreadful outrage has attained avery high pitch. Mr. A. C. Foster (of the firm of Norris, Fester, and Norris) appeared for toe prosecution, and stated the circum stances of the rase at follows : He said the cimplainanta were two respectable females named Sarah Ann Burrow and Martha Ann Barrow. They both reside at Halifax, the former being her uncle's housekeeper, and the latter baring been employed at Mr. Kirk's dyehouse, Old-lana, for the last ten years. Murtha Ann bee • sweetheart, named Allen Twee dale, a native of Brgbouse, but employed at Mr. Kirk's dye-house. On the Saturday night previous Teesdale met the young women in Halite:, end they accepted en tnvitation which he gave them, to go over to Brighouse and take tea with kis sister-in•law, in the afternoon of the following day. Teesdale promised to meet them at Brighouse, but when they got there—about five p.m. on Sunday—they saw Dothing of him; and when they went to the deter's house , about an hour afterwards, she was not at borne. They one mquently repaired to the railway station, intending to take the seven o clock train for Halifax. While wafting at the statics, however, they were joined by Tweedale who pre vailed upon them accompany him to the R oyal Hotel, where the bad some refreshments. They then resolved to leave by the nine o'clock train, but unfortunately happened to be a minute or two too late. At this time very heavy rein wee falling, end they Married to the hotel, remaining there for shelter till about 10 o'clock. The weather was then rather fairer, end the complainants set out for home ou foot, Martha Ann walking arm-in-arm with her sweet heed, and Sarah Ann (her cousin) with • men named Joe Wood, • friend of T 'sedate's, who agreed to accompany them ea far as Elliott, where he resided. They proceeded by the Reetrick Road. When they had got 200 or 900 yerde away, two men came sad bustled against them, and the same thing was repeated by three other men further on the road ; but they Inans3ed to get away in both came without suetaining any injury. When, however, they arrived at the fields below Bootbroyde, the residenceof Charles Pltehforsh, Esq., • very shocking outrage was committed. The girls wets then walking with their protectors, about 100 yards apart, when two groups of men (numbering together seven or sight) rushed upon them simultaneously, and commenced using them in • most indecent end shameful manner. Sarah Ann was thrown down and held upon the ground, while three or four of the radians auljected her to the most brutaltreateseut. The poor creature screamed and struggled hard, but all in vain. Wood, who should have been her protector, seemed paralysed for the moment ; but when presence of mind returned, he proceeded to the help of his companion, and at length succeeded in releasing her from the grasp of her oppressors. As soon u she was free, she ran off to the aid of her cousin, whom she hood soreanung at a distance. She found Martha Ann, surrounded by three or four of the ruffians ; but with& degree of courage perhaps onexem pled under such circumstances, she dashed in among them, and bravely achieved the liberation of her cousin. Martha Ann then set o ff to Mr. Pitchforth's for maistatice, accompanied by Tweedale. They were pursued by two or three of their aosailante, but managed to reach Mr. Pitchforth's hones. Before their return with assistance, however, the other young woman wee subjected to another dreadful outrage. She was following her cousin towards Boothroyde, but tome of the ruffians overtook her, and dragged her from the Lotpath to • distant part of the field, where she was surrounded by the whole of the gang. The poor wornm's screams were heard for half • mile, though the night was very wild. When her strength peened quite estimated, end she had almost lost her con. acionenese, one of the villains appeared alarmed at her °ma dictum and, at his request, she wee lifted up. The men now all left except two ' who, ads she had somewhat recovered, seined her by each arm, and said they would take her • little way on the road towards home, The young ma* Wood bad previously attempted her rescue, but the ruffians threatened to kill him, and he left the young wo man to her fate. When the two villiana had brought her on the road some distance, however, Thomas Smithies, a . r . o2F man from Elland, who bad witnessed part of what had went and remonstrated with them, but the brutes p 7.• him on one side, telling him to mind has own business, end continuing to pull their victim on the mad. The poor creature was hurried on some distance further, when her umlaute endeavoured to get her over some steps into Elland Wood. She, however, mitred, and Smithies weat to her as stance again, but the ruf fi ans melted him end tried to throw him into • stone quarry hard by. On regaining hit liberty he ran off for assistance, sad met with Joe Wood who was also looking out for help ; bat as they had now to encounter but two of the assailants, Smithies and Wood returned, determined to liberate the poor girl, if it should coat them their lime to do so. By the time they got back she had been dragged tato the wood, and meatilted splints the grossest possible omoned Her essailante now left her, and Smithies and Wood misted her to the home of Mr. Jones, blacksmith, =mid Lower Edge, when (being too weak to return home) she was aided with lodgings for the night. The other Mil temainel at the home of Mr. Pitchforth's farm servant, till next day. All the prisouers were dearly ideatified by the complain ants; but Mr. Foster applied tor a remand till Wednesday, ae three of the vilest of the ruffians are still at large. Mr. Mitchell, for the prisoners, asked the bench to admit them to bail, hut the application was refused, the magistrates oba serving that the ease was of too axiom a nature. The Chairman, addressing the primmer', remarked that this was one of the moat diabolical acts he had ever heard of, next to actual 'neuter. Virtually they weft one ea bed is another, end if the whole of them were Mimed together the • country would be the better for it. They would be reminded 1 to Wednesday. "We need hardly asy," says the Leeds Nee ' nog, "this shocking event has meted a palatal feeling in the district where it happened and in Halifax. The sufferer is in humble life, bat of spotless character. Her state of health now is distressing. Oa Friday, when some of the prisoners were first brought up, she fainted; and on Saturday loom ing, when called to identify one just apprehended, she fainted again the toomentthe saw him." . . 'Dlr.
