EITENSIVE vatsxzzt.tttssxrs. Henry Baynes, a respectable-looking man, described as being 30 years of age, and by profession a clerk, pleaded guilty to four indictments, forging two receipts for the sums of 11/. 12s. Cal. and of 51. 2s. 6d. respectively, with intent to defraud Messrs. Rivington, the eminent pub lishers, carrying on their business in Pall-mall ; and the two last indictments charged the prisoner with feloniously altering two receipts for the several sums of 31. ss. and of 1/. 10s. 6d. with a like intent. Mr. Besley appeared as counsel for the prosecutors, and stated that the prisoner had been three years in the ser vice of the prosecutor as advertising clerk, and the fraud had been ingeniously effected. There was an account due to the prosecutors from the publisher of Notes and Queries to the amount of 5/. 9i. Gd., and the prisoner stating that the parties were waiting for payment presented a bill of W. 125. 6d., to which he forged the receipt, and on this be obtained a cheque for the larger amount, which he took to the publishers of Notes and Queries, when he paid the real amount, receiving the di ff erence, which he put in his pocket and applied to his own purposes. This was on the 24th February last, but on the 7th October last be committed a similar forgery and fraud by presenting a bill for 51. 25., when the real amount due was only 31. odd. The other two indictments referred to the alteration of an account due to the Press newspaper for 3/. Its, to 51. 5/. ; in another case he also altered a second bill from U. 100.6 d. to 41. 10e. 6d., and he had applied to his own use the dif ference between theseamounta in favour of his masters and employers. There were numerous other similar charges against the prisoner, whose defalcations amounted alto gether to about 304 W., and the prosecutors left the ease entirely in the hands of the court to dispose of as it might think tit. Mr. F. H. Lewis, on behalf of the prisoner, urged in mitigation of sentence that he hail a wife and three chil dren, and had fallen into pecuniary circumstances in con sequence of the protracted and serious illness of his wife, and had yielded to the temptation which his position and situation put in his way. The Deputy Recorder said that under the circumstances represented the Court v. mild not pass a sentence of penal servitude. The sentence was that the prisoner be kept to hand labour in the House of Correction for 18 calendar mouths. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. reitious ottivum Mr. Thomas C7rmsht, stationer, of No. 21, Little Pul tenepstrect, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with being I drink and furious driving, to the common danger of pas- sengers. William Sherer, a young man residing in Great Portland street, said that about ii o'clock the previous evening, he saw the defendant gallopping his horse attached to a cart down Princes-street, Leicester-square. The defendant directly afterwards returned, still galloping his horse, and then he (witness) noticed that lie was drunk. At last the defen dant's cart came in collision with a cart containing linen, and he then went up and bold the defendant's horse till a constable conic up. Police-constable Steven:, l'.lo C, said the defendant was very drunk. There was a large crowd assembled, and a handle of linen was taken from the cart the defendant came in collision with. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined the defendant 205., or seven days. The owner of the linen stepped forward, and asked what she was to do to recover her loss, and the owner of the cart said he had a claim for &Image done to his cart. Mr. Tyrrwhitt referred the applicant to the county court. WANDSWORTH. A WOULD-BE " CARPAL"-STRANGE CONDUCT OT A TOOTH. . . - James William Price, a well-dressed youth, 16 years of age, who described himself as a clerk, was placed in the dock before Mr. Ingham, charged with wilfully breaking • lamp at the Wandsworth police-station. The prisoner said he did nut know where to go. Inspector Lovelace mime forward to explain the case. He stated that for several weeks past the parish autho rities for the district had appointed the police assistant relieving-o ffi cers. On the 13t h or 16th of March the pri soner came to the station, and applied for an order to admit him into the workhouse as a casual pauper. He questioned him, as he clearly saw from his appearance that there was something wrong, and he ascertained from him that he lived in the neig! . .bourhood of Islington. He gave him the order, and iced him to return home the next morning. The prisoner had been once since to the station for another order, but as he was in a state of intoxication he refused to give him one. Since then he had been in custody at Epsom for bogging, and Mr. Butt, the superin tendent of the division, who happened to see him, gave him some good food, and advised him to return home. On the present occasion the prisoner again applied to him to be admitted into the casual ward. He refused, and the consequence was the breaking of the lamp. Mr. Ingham ordered the prisoner to pay 25., the damage, and a fine of 205., with the alternative of eight days' hard labour. A respectable-looking female, the aunt of the prisoner, here rose and entreated the magistrate to let him otf with a less fine. She said she could not account for his strange conduct. He had been brought up in the Wanstead Orphan Asylum, and had received a good education. His father was dead, and his mother was living and in service. Mr. Ingham said the prisoner could not be allowed to be roving about the country in this way, and he thought it would be better for him that he should be sent to prison to get a little sense. The prisoner having been severely admonished by the magistrate and cautioned the fine was reduced to se. The damage and fine were then paid by the aunt who took prisoner away with her. The Rows of Naples states that last week a disturbance occurred at the Theatre San Carlo of that city, owing to the presence in one of the boxes of a lady in a splendid toilet, who was recognised as Madame Rattaini. Loud cries of " Out with Eattassi ! " bunt forth from a large part of the public, and were followed by groans and hisses. It is added that General Car rano immediately went into M. Rattan:is box to express his regret at this occurrence, and that on the same evening a host of persons left cards at M. Rattaazi's residence. The Diritto of Turin states that a banquet was given three days ago at Barite by a number of patriots, as a mark of sympathy for Orritialdrs son, Ricciotti,who left the next morning for England.

M id mus hiou, to Nom THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY "'EVENING, SHARE L. THE BRIGHTON MURDER. EXECUTION OF THE MURDERER AT LEWES. (THIS DAY.) The last sentence of the law was this morning carried into effect upon John William Leigh, aged 28, who was convicted at the late assizes for the county of Sussex of the murder of his sister-in-law, Mrs. Horton, the land lady of the Jolly Fisherman publio-bonse, at Brighton. The offence, it will be remembered, was committed in the most daring and deliberate manner. The prisoner walked into the bar parlour where the deceased was sitting with two customers, and, without saying a word, dis charged two of the chambers of a six-barrel revolver at the unfortunate woman, one of the balls passing com pletely through her body, and the other lodging in the armpit, whence it was extracted. The prisoner then ran out of the house, and when Mr. Barnden, super intendent of the Brighton police, attempted to take him into custody, he discharged another of the barrels of the revolver at him, and the ball pulsed through part of his clothing, and he bad a narrow escape of being killed. The only defence that was attempted to be set up for him was that he was not in • sane condition of mind at the time the act was committed ; but the evidence that was brought forward to establish this defence was that the prisoner had on two occaKons been attacked by delirium tremens, resulting from drink ing ardent spirits to exoem, and the evidence as to in sanity failed altogether. After the prisoner was convicted he expressed • desire to read a long statement which he had prepared ; but, as this statement merely referred to acts of alleged misconduct on the part of the deceased and her sister, to whom he had been married about two years,but who had separated from him at the time the occurrence took place, he was advised that such • statement would not have any good effect, and would rather tend to establish • motive for the commission of the crime, and he there fore refrained from reading it. The career of the culprit seems to have been s very ex traordinary one. It appears that he was the illegitimate son of a gentleman holding • very respectable position, who resided at Brighton, and who was a married man, and after his birth his father seems to have made provi sion for him. His wife, however, who had become acquainted with the fact, an& who bad no children of her own, appears to have taken the somewhat un usual course, under the circumstances, of adopting the child, and he was brought up at Brighton in every comfort. His habits, however, appeared to be wild and extravagant ; he was • constant source of trouble and uneasiness to the lady who had adopted him, and when he was little more than 18 years of age he entered the royal navy, and he served during the campaign in the Crimea as a mid shipman. He was on board the Tyrone, one of the govern ment transports, at the time of the dreadful storm which, it will be remembered, took place in the Black Sea during the occupation of the Crimea by the allies. The vessel in which he served was wrecked with • great many others, and the culprit had • very narrow escape from being drowned. After he left the royal navy he appears to have stayed for a short time in London. He then went to China and took service against the imperialists, and during the struggle he received several severe wounds, of which he seemed to be very proud, and he would readily undress himself whenever he was requested to exhibit them. After this, it is said, he served for some time on board the celebrated Confederate cruiser the Alabama, and he was constantly narrating the daring exploits in which he took part while he was on board that vessel. Notwithstanding the desperate and outrageous charac ter of the offence of which the prisoner was oonvicted, a number of respectable persons at Brighton, who were acquainted with him and with the circumstances under which he had become connected with the deceased and her family have interested, themselves in his behalf ; and a short time back a memorial was sent to Sir G. Grey praying for a respite of the culprit on the ground that at the time the act was committed he was not in such a state of mind as to be criminally re sponsible. As usual in all such cases, a communication was made by the Home Secretary to Chief Justice Erie, who tried the prisoner, upon the subject, and the opinion of the learned judge with reference to the prisoner was asked for, and it is understood that his lordship in reply expressed himself perfectly satisfied with the verdict of the jury, stating at the same time that the evidence that had been adduced on be half of the prisoner had, in his opinion, entirely failed to establish the plea of insanity. The answer that was sent by Sir George Grey to the memorialists consequently was that he could not see anything to justify him in in terfering with the course of the law. Although several reports have appeared in some of the local papers with regard to the levity thathas been exhibited by the culprit since his conviction, it appears that they are entirely without foundation. He seems on the contrary to have conducted himself exceedingly welL He has paid the greatest attention to the exhortations of the Rev. Mr. Burnett, the chaplain of the prison, and, according to that gentleman's opinion, as far as can be judged from the prisoner's conduct and expressions, he was sincerely penitent for his crime, and he frequently stated that he considered his sentence a just one. So far as the de fence of insanity that was set up for him it may be stated that be was no party to that defence, but he did not feel himself called upon to oppose such • course being taken, but left the matter entirely in the hands of those who were defending him. The only persons who have visited him since his condem nation were his mother, who,lit will be remembered, woe examined as a witness on his behalf at the trial, who saw him last week, and a couple of boatmen from Brighton with whom he had been in the habit of assert ting during his residence at that place. For the reason above-stated, his relations with his own mother were not of that tender character that usually exist between such near relations ; but there appeared to be a good deal of affection existing between them, and the culprit expressed his sorrow for the pain he had occasioned his mother on several occasions while they were living together ; and the interview was altogether of a very peaceful character. With respect to the other persons who visited the prisoner, it appears that he merely desired to see them for the purpose, as he said, of exhorting them to depart from all evil courses, and to lead a religious and respectable life. The prisoner's I wife, the sister of the unfortunate deceased, went to the gaol for the purpose of having an interview with the pri soner on Monday, but he refused to see her, as he said that it would uwettle him and disturb his last moments. The culprit attended Divine service in the chapel of the prison this morning at 9 o'clock, and he appeared to pay great attention to the feeling dimmerse that was de livered by the chaplain. He was then taken back to his cell, where he remained with the chaplain until the time appointed for the carrying out the sentence of the law. A few minutes before 12 o'clock, the executioner, Cal mat, made his appearance ; but the culprit evinced very little emotion while the ceremony of pinioning was being performed. He walked to the scaffold with a flan step, and when the drop fell life appeared to be extinct after a very short struggle. There was a very considerable crowd to witness the exe cution, a great number of persons having come over from Brighton, where the prisoner was, of course, well known. It is ten years since an execution has taken place in this town. The last prisoner who suffered was a man named Murdock, for killing the governor of the gaol at Hastings in an endeavour to make his escape from that prison. We read in the City article of the Times :—" A Faction lately common among scene disreputable persons engaged in city business of offering the securities and bills I of large firms for negotiation at heavy rates of discount, when there are in reality no such bills in existence, has been renewed to-day, the object being to damage credit u much as possible, in order to influence prices in the Stock Exchange. In one case this afternoon it is understood the offenders have been distinctly traced, with a view to legal proceedings being commenced against them, and the entire mercantile community will rejoice if a severe penalty be hi/tided." Made radatsch has a caricature this week on the Schleswig-Holstein difficulty. &Meow* and Holstein are represented as the two legs of a pair of trousers. In the first part Prussia and Austria have each got one leg on, with the remark, " That does not do." In the second picture the trouser, are divided, and each has one leg. That does not do either. In Val third, Prusia has got the whole garment to itself, and Austria is walking off with a beg of money, and that will do. OF LIBERAL MEMBERS OF P ARLIAMENTP AT EARL RUSSELL'S. (THIS DAY.) This afternoon upwards of 250 supporters of the government met at Earl Russell's official residence' in response to an invitation from the noble lord. Earl RussELL, in an address of half-an-hour's duration, considered some of the principal objec tions to the bill, and declared that the government had undertaken to carry a whole measure of reform, although dealing with the subject by separate bills. Mr. LAINO deprecated the progress of democracy, and asked Lord Russell whether the ministry in tended this as a final measure ? Mr. Toaarra having protested against the go vernment making any declaration on the subject, and Mr. Coosig having promised the support of the liberal Irish members, s e e. Earl Russzu. declined to give any pledg e on the it. subject of Mr. Laing's question. 6 Tp 0 The character of the meeting was considered at. most favourable to the prospects of the bill. 100 St St LATEST SPORTING INTELLIGENCE (BY ZLECTILIC TELIDGRAPR.)

The lifeboat of the National lifeboat Institution was thereupon immediately launched, and proceeded along side the ship, but the captain and crew decided to remain in her till daylight, and the lifeboat returned to the shore. The next morning, the sea having greatly increased, the lifeboat again went off to the vessel, which had com menced to leak, and the crew at once came ashore in the lifeboat. The wind at this time was blowing from the north-east, and there was a heavy swell on. The barque is likely to become a total wreck.

EITRAORDINARY DEATH OF A YOVNG GIRL. — On Saturday evening, the Borough Coroner held an inquest at the Sir John Falstaff inn, Albion-hill, on the body of Clara Hollands, aged 17, who died sud denly. Deceased had been employed as servant for about four months by Mrs. Erredge, of 51, Queen's road. During that time she had been in excellent health, but on Wednesda she complained of severe heal-ache, and on Friday became so unwell that she was unable to do her work, and left to go home. On her road thither the called at the house of a Mrs. Harvey, 5, Richmond-square, with whose brother-in law she bad been keeping company. She there again complained of her head, and remained at the house all day, and in the evening became so ill that she was carried upstairs to bed in an insensible state, and her mother, who lives in Derby-place, was sent for. Nearly an hour elapsed before she arrived, and she went immediately for Mr. Sewell, surgeon. Shortly after the mother was gone the girl died, and the evidence of Mr. Sewell, who made a post mortem ex amination with the assistance of Mr. Plailllolll, showed that there was considerable effusion in the right ventri olo of the brain, in which he discovered a large hydatld cist. This he examined with a microscope, and found it to consist of the ova or eggs of some parasitic in sect. For the presencA, of this Mr. Sewell could not account. The disease was of rare occurrence, but when it had occurred recorded cases showed that death had been sudden. The insects were usually conveyed into the system with food, and after depositing their eggs they left the system. In course of tune the ws are hatched, and death ensues if it baa not taken place before. The disease was often communi cated to the system by eating " meaaley " pork, under done meat, or wateraresaes ; and Mr. Sewell said that it was a very pop u lar error to oppose that under-done meat was the best for food. Should the meat be affected, heat was the only thing that would kill the insects, and there was therefore no danger in well-cooked meat. The jury returned a verdict in accordance with the evidence of Mr. SewelL—Brighton Examiner. APRIL 10,v 1866. rIS DAY.)
