Mr. BM/4min Griffin, a livery stable keeper in Cole masetreet, was summoned before Alderman Allen for d r iving to the common danger of the passengers. police-constable Hartopp, 632, said that on the 28th of J u ly, at a quarter-past 7 o'clock in the evening, he saw the defendant in a chaise in Lombard-street. He drove twice across an omnibus, and if the driver had not pulled ap his horses very sharply he would have smashed the defendant's vehicle. He believed the defendant was oder the influence of drink. Two other wituesees corroborated the above statement, and also thought the defendant was affected by drink. Mr. Griffin said he was not at all under the influence of *lmo, but the fact was he was very much excited because be had just been informed that a valuable horse of his bad been shot in Fenchurch-street, and he was hsstening to the place where it had been killed. Mr. Davie (second clerk)—What do you mean by your hers/ being shot Defendant—Why, that he was shot through the heart. Mr. Davie—What, in the street Defendant—Yes, In Fenchurch-street. The horse was pining a store for firearms, and a person inside was look ing at a rifle, which he was not aware was loaded, and it vent off, and the bullet went through my horse's heart. Mr. Davie—Do I understand you correctly to say that, while your horse was passing the door of the store, • gun was fired into the public street and killed your horse ! Defendant—Yes, sir. Mr. Davie—So that if the alderman hsd been passing at the moment the ball might have gone through him. Defendant —Preci rely so. Alderman Allen—l am glad I was not there. Mr. Davie—Have the police made any inquiry into the matter! Defendant—The parties have paid me 50 guineas for my hens, and I have made no complaint to the police. Inspector Duddy—The circumstance has been reported to the police, and they have inquired into it. It appears that the gentleman who was examining the gun was not aware it was loaded, and in handling it it went off. It was spore accident. Aldermen Allen—Your excitement was very natural, but Ica have been guilty of indiscretion. Under all the cir. cemstances the summons will be withdrawn on payment of costs. CLERK ENWELL.

STREIT OUTRAGES AND ASSAULT UPON THE POLICE.. James Regan and Henry Ounnion, impudent-looking young fellows, were placed at the bar before Mr. Burcham, charged with annoying and insulting females in the street, also with committing a violent assault upon polico-con stable 73 M in the execution of his duty. The latter, who exhibited a cut on the chin and another on the upper lip, said that about 9 o'clock on the previous night he was on duty in High-street, Borough, when he saw the prisoners running from one side of the pave ment to the other, pushing all the females o ff , and con ducting themselvesin an impudent manner towards them. They got hold of one young woman and completely turned her round, ginching her in such a manner that she called out for help. A Anna ruihed to her assistance, when they both scampered off. Witness pursued them, and captured Regan in Snow's-fields, when a mob of ruffians surrounded him, and stones were thrown at him from different direc tions, and in the struggle he received outs on the chin rind upper lip. He eventually secured Region ' and was convey ing him to the station-house, when tue other prisoner Came up and demanded his release. He caught hold of witness's collar, and would most likely have rescued the other had not another constable come to his assistance. , Mr. Burnham asked if any of the females were in court who had been assaulted by the prisoners! The constable replied in the negative. He lost sight of them in capturing the prisoners. Police-constable 49 M said he received information that lot witness had some difficulty in apprehending a prisoner in Snow's-fields, consequently he proceeded there, and saw the constable struggling with Regan, end a mob around iim. The other prisoner endeavoured to rescue him, when witness seized hold of him to prevent it. They lads struggle together, and stones were thrown at him by the mob. At last they secured the prisoners, and con. :eyed them to the station-house. In answer to the charge, the prisoners said they were the worse for liquor, and accidentally reeled against the Inmates in the street. Th e y annoyed no one, and never assaulted the police. Kr. Bonham was satisfied that they did, and he assured them that if any of the females had come forward and liven evidence against them of a satisfactory nature he should have punished him with great severity. Under all the circumstances he convicted them of ;assaulting the pikes, and sentenced each to 14 days' hard labour. THAMES. CAROUSING oN BOARD SHIPS.

Abraham Brewster was yesterday sworn in to the office of Lord Justice of the Court of Appeal in Chancery. The oaths were administered by the Clerk of the Crown and Hanaper, in presence of the Lord Chan cellor. _ . ••—• SIR. GILBERT EAST.—The Herald says there is good reason for believing that the paragraph which we copied from a contemporary a day or two ago, describing the sudden disappearance of Sir Gilbert East at Ryde, and indicating his probable death by drowning, is untrue, and that Sir Gilbert is yet alive. It adds that it hears upon authority on which it puts trust that the hon. baronet is at this moment to be found in the neighbour hood of Ryde. THE EVANGELICAL ALLIANCE AND THE CHOLERA -A meeting, convened by the committee of the Evangelical Alliance, was held last evening at the Freemasons' Hall, Great Queen-street, for the purpose of united prayer on be half of the sufferers by the cholera, and of supplication for the removal of the visitation.

Dr. Fry, fey. J. Davis, Rev. Mr. Jenkins, Captain Fishbourne, Captain Trotter, Mr. R. C. L. Bevan, &c. Hymns appro priate to the occasion were sung at intervals, and several passages of Scripture were read, the p.'oceedings Lasting about two hours, and being characterised by much earnest ness and solemnity. A cumber of persons resident in the infected districts were present. MERSEY STEEL IRON COMPANY.—At the second ordinary meeting of this company, held in Liverpool yes terday, Mr. T. B. Horsfa ll , M.I . (the chairman) stated that the result of the last year's working had been unsatia- factory. The first seven months were iinremunemtive in consequence of the iron trade not having recovered from the depression induced by the American wax, and during the last quarter the strike among the workmen had seriously impeded the execution of orders. Now, however, the strike was over, and there was a prospect of improving business. There was no reason why in the future the con cern should not be, as it bad been in the past, highly profitable. No dividend was declared for the year, as the balance, after paying current expenses, did not exceed 275/. This it was proposed to add to the reserve fund, which would then amount to 3,220!. The report was adopted, the retiring directors, Messrs. T. B. Honfall, M.P., J. C. Evart, and G. H. }lonian, re-elected, and Messrs. H. Banner and Son appointed auditors for the enzningfear at • salary of 150/. A GUNNER KILLED WHILE SALUTING HER MAJEATT.—An inquest was held on board her Majesty's ship Irresistible, lying in Southampton Water, yesterday morning on the body of Richard Harley, a seaman gunner on board. It appeared that on the day previous the vessel was returning from a six weeks' cruise to her moorings at Southampton, and when in Stokes Bay, off Osborne, direc tions were given to fire a salute in honour of her Majesty, wbo is at present staying at her marine residence in the Isle of Wight. Deceased was appointed to sponge out one of the guns, as it was discharged, and after it had been fired he sponged it once as usual ; but another man seeing some fire on the sponge told deceased to sponge it out again. He replied that it did not require it, and took • charge of powder and placed it in the muzzle. He proceeded to ram it home, but it almost immediately exploded, throw ing Harley overboard and injuring the thumb of a man named Hay, who was earring the vent. When taken up Harley was quite dead ; both his arms were blown off at the elbow joint, several of his ribs were broken, and he was otherwise severely injured in the face and other parts of his body. At the inquest held on board yesterday, the evidence of Captain Boris+e and others went to show that Harley was well acquainted with the working det ails of gunnery, and that the accident in all probability was owing to his not having sponrd the gen • second time when required to do so. A verdict of accidental death was returned. Deceased was 37 years of age, and leaves a widow an 1 two young children. SHARE LISTS.-(THIS DAY.) 011 o'ol.oou.

The quantity of English wheat on sale here to-day wait rather limited, but in fair average condition. Most kinds were held for more money. The demand, however, was, far from active, :it fully Monday's quotations. We were well supplied with foreign wheat, which chaisi,ed hands steadily, on former terms. A small pared was taken for shipment to France. Floating cargoes of grain were quite as dear as bet week. The show of both English and foreign barley was moderate. On the whole the trade ruled firm, at fall . prices. Molt was a slow inquiry, but not cheaper. There was a good business doing in oats on former terms. Lemis were very dull at barely stationary prices. In peas scarcely any business was doing at previous mar rencies. The f!our trl,le was steady at full prices. Unwed w.ts gone us dear as last week.
