(THIS DAY.) MANSION-ROUSE. THE CHARGE AGAINST AIItUSTIME. ‘,Frolreidlion Wood, of No. 3, Albe4 7 read, Abbey. road, SL John'e•wood, was brought before the Lord Mayor on remand, charged with fraudulently appropriating to his own use a sum of 2,:;00/., which had been invested in Reduced Three per Cent. Annuities, and of which he was trustee. It appeared from the evidence taken on the former exa mination that the defendant and another gentleman (who had aince died) were appointed trustees under the will of a person named Oldham, who died at Leicester in the year Itildh and left certain legacies amounting to about 9,000/. One of these was a suns of 3,000/. less legacy duty ; and it appeared that during the bet two years the greater part of the amount had been withdrawn by the defendant and applied to his own use, Contrary to the Fraudulent Trustees Act. Mr. "Woutuer, who eoaducted the prosecution, now stated that as the defendant rep resen t e d th a t h e on ly took the money for a temporary purpose, and had now replaced it and appointed other trustees, h e had to ask his lordship to allow the charge to be withdrawn. Mr. George Lewis, who appeared for Mr. Wood, said the defendant was a gentleman of independent means, and per fectly able to replace the money, and Lad only withdrawn it on a temporary emergency. He had now replaced the money, and he desired to state that he had no inten tion to defraud any of the legatees. The defendant warn then discharged. BOW-STREVE THE CABN/2eB STRIKE—AMER ON ♦ GREAT NORTHERN CAB. Ed ining Siroine, horsekeeper to his father, a eabowner, was brought before Mr. Vaughan under the following sir. canisters:es : Mr. Wontner, jan., said that he appeared on behalf of the Great Northern Railway Company to prosecute t h e prisoner. In consequence of the recent acts of parliament regulating the traffic in the streets a combination of drivers and owners of cabs plying for hire took place, and meetings were held last night all over the town the streets were deserted of cabs. The Great Northern Rail way Company possess privileged ca b s , b u t ow i ng to the strike the cabmen hesitated to take fares, stating that they knew so few cabs would be about, and those out would certainly be much damaged and the drivers as saulted. Knowing the inconvenience of passengers tra velling from a long way to town, and obtaining no vehicles to convey them home, the company took the responsibility of the safety of the driver upon themselves. He was not here to go into the rights or wrongs of the question be tween the cabdrivers and the public. Probably they have a right to strike if they chose, but at all events they have no right to make others do so by any means beyond the proper and fair persuasion. But if they do, then, as in the case of the strike of the tailors, they are liable to punishment. Two gentlemen, Mr. Ayliffe and Mr. Millington, arrived from Lincolnshire about $ o'clock. They informed the superintendent of the Great Northern Railway-station that they refused to ride in the cab without the protection of a policeman. A policeman accordingly accompanied them, but when they arrived at Charing-crow they were ejected from the cab, which was turned over, and great confusion ensued, which would be shown by the following evidence : Mr. Vaughan asked what was the specific charge ? Mr. Wontner said at present it was that of unlawful possession of the cab. • Mr. Vaughansaid he would hear the evidence, but usually the charge of unlawful possession applied where the property was supposed to have been stolen or obtained by false pretences. George Stevens, 57 A Reserve—Last night, about a quarter to 9 o'clock, I was on duty in Trafalgar-square, and saw a four-wheeled cab coming along St. Martin's lane. The mob commenced hooting and hallooing as soon se they caught sight of it, and two carts which were standing there drove after it, followed by the mob. I went down Whitehall-place and saw two cuts driving after the cab. The crowd then got some distance ahead. Some little time afterwards I met the prisoner. He was between the shafts of the cab and was drawing it back toward. Trafalgar-square. A constable came up, in private clothe., and I told him I thought there was some thing wrong about them. I stopped the prisoner and in quired of him, where he was taking the cab. He said where he chose to. I asked him if it was his own, and he replied, no , and that he did not kn ow where it belonged t o , nor did he care. I then took him into custody for the unlawful possession of the cab. A mob then collected and made efforts and rescue the prisoner. I saw a soldier, and asked him to help me ; but he exclaimed, " the four-wheeler, let's pitch it over." A crowd then rushed at and over turned the cab. I drew my truncheon, and knocked the soldier down for attempting to fight me. They turned over the cab twice. The prisoner was then in custody; bat we had great difficulty in keeping hack the crowd. By Mr. Vaughan—When the prisoner was drawing the cab there was no crowd surrounding, only a few people following. The prisoner asked no questions of the witnesses. Police-constable Ogilvy, 42 A reserve—l was on duty in Trsfalgarsquare last night, and saw a cab coining from the direction of St. Martin's-lane. There was a crowd following it, hooting and yelling. It went on down White ball, all, still followed by the crowd, crying " No lamps," and Pull him off ." I sh ou ld say there were quite 300 persons. I came down after them. They stopped the cab, turned the gentlemen out, took the horse out of the shafts, and turned it on its side. When I got to the spot the prisoner vas in the shafts of the cab. An attempt was made by the mob to rescue him. Policeman KS A Reserve, corroborated,and stated that he saw the prisoner trying to unfasten the trace in order to take the horse out of the cab, but being so hustled by the mob that be could not get near the cab. he went down to the station-house to obtain assistance. When he returned the risoner wax in the shafp Edward George Ayliti ts. o, solicitor, at Holbeach, Lin eoloshire, stated that he arrived at King's-cross station at shoat ft o'clock last night, and got into a cab with a friend, Mr. Millington, who was with him. A Policeman got on the box. The cab drove off, in the direction of Westminster, followed by a crowd yell ing sad hooting. As we passed by Trafalgar-square there was a meeting going on. There wags great crowd and men With lights. We ware received with yelling, shouting, and cries of " turn him over." I never beard such yelling in all my life. The cabman drove rapidly down Whitehall, try ing to avoid th e mo b , b ut a crowd of about 300 followed him. I noticedtwo carts following ns, ouch carts as stable keepers use to convey forage. There were three men in each. One of the carts drove at the cab as if to run us down. That missed us, but the cart was then turned to the left, so es to get before us. The other cart drove close up on our off side, so that were completely blocked in, being next the curt. There were cries of " Turn it over." The horse was turned into almost a reverse position, evi dently with a view to turn it over. Being inside, I naturally obj ec t e d t o the turning over, so I got out a nd helped my friend out. There was • crowd of I should say 300 persons. We were quite powerless in their hands. The eshm..n was dragged off the box ; the policeman partly was pulled off and partly helped himself off. The attitude of the crowd was menacing, and would be alarming to a nervous person. I am not myself vary sensitive in my nerves. I should certainly think it was alarming to the cabman• a ato svided Irene@ until. gbter.) were? omen. tried don't ney se of his morsel a ago 'es Oki he las knows ue of ;ht tIP l when in the Anew; In" Would if bls 36 .eue, acting on behalf of the oommitte of the Cab men's Association, here applied to the magistrate to ad intim the cue, in order that counsel might be instructed to watch the use. Mr. Wontner anuested that as there were several other eases of a similar nature, it would be convenient that any others in which the committee should also intend to de fend should to adjourned to the same day. Mr. Vaughan said he could not remand any prisoner THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 4, 1867. THE CABMEA'S STRIKE. DEPUTATION TO THE HOME SECRETARY. (THIS DAY.) A deputation from the cab-owners and cabmen, originating in the great meeting hold last night at Exeter Hall, waited upon Mr. Hardy, at the Home-oftlce, at one o'clock, to lay their came before the right bon. gentleman, in the hope of securing the redress of their alleged grievances. The deputation was introduced by Lord Echo, M.P., who was accompanied by Sir G. Bowyer, M.P., and Mr. Alderman Salomon, M.P. The cab proprietors present were:—Mears. T. H. Godtachalk, Cockrane, Wel!beloved, Case, Balding, and Crocker (Secretary.) The cabmen were represented by Messrs. (:.Smith, B. Pearce, and F. Selina. Mr. Gower, chairman at last night's meeting at Exeter Hall. and Mr. Fry, solicitor, were also present. The press was not admitted to the interview, but the result was afterwards stated to ono of its representatives by Lord Bich° in the following terms :—" The Secretary of State will propose to Lord Derby to introduce • clause into the bill now before the House of Lords to empower him to exercise his discretion as to what portion of the act ho may think it desirable or not desirable to enforce as regards the regulation of cab traffic. On the faith of that undertaking the Hansom cab proprietors consented at once that their vehicles shall run as before with lamps. It is understood that the cab traffic in the metropolis will now be continued as usuaL" without some evidence, unless bail could be at once pro vided. _ - Mr. Cue said there were parties in attendance. Mr. Vaughan said in that case be had no objection to the adjournment. At the same time, he must impress on Mr. Cnse, and through him upon the committee of cab owners, that whatever might be the rights of the drivers. and whatever complaints they might have of recent legis lation, they could not be allowed to resort to intimidation in order to compel others to join in any combination they might form. He pointed out that any combination became unlawful the moment it was carried on by unlawful mans and that any person who committed an assault in pursuance of any unlawful conspiracy for trade purposes was liable to two ' , cars' imprisonment for iniodemeimonr. Mr. Case rimmed the magistrate that the committee were far from encouraging any breach of the law. They considered that nothing the men could do could be more injurious to the cause than the use of such violence as had been employed last night. They were not here to defend any man who took part in an outrage. But the prisoner declared he was not one of the persons who did so, and he had several witnesses to prove it. Mr. sughan was glad to hear that the committee did not hack the men in any acts of violence, and had no doubt their influence would restrain them in future. Mr. Case said there were2,ooopeOPle;rl3; could not get into the hall, and only • few committed any excess. It had been ex that the ball would hold all who would come. that been so, nothing of the kind would have occurred. The prisoner was Monad over in two sureties of 20/. and his own recognisance* of 40/. to appear on a future day. Two others were remanded on similar bail. MARLBOROUGH...STREET. THE CAE QUEHTION.-CHARGES AOAINBT CARMEN. °forge Swat, a cabdriver, bodge 3,560, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with behaving in a disorderly manner, and attempting to overthrow the cab of James Buckingham, cab proprietor and driver, thereby endanger ing , his life. James Buckingham, proprietor of cab ILL 12 said—About 10 o'clock last night I was going up Regent-street on my Gab, being engaged, but having no fare in my cab at that time, when the prisoner and about 20 or 30 others came up, and the prisoner said "Take that --cab home or 111 throw it over for you and break your neck." The prisoner then seized me by the collar and tried to pull me off my cab and then tried to overturn my cab, and I then gave him into custody to a constable who came up. Police-constable Wm. Thom, 12.5 A Reserve—l was in Regent-street last night, and saw the prisoner and about 20 or 30 others walking after the complainant's cab, and I beard the prisoner at the top of his voice say, " Why don't yea take that cab home ? we will upset it for you." I saw the prisoner go to the fore part of the cab and lay hold of the couiplainant, and then come behind and put his arm against the bind wheel, as if to throw the cab over, and I then took him into custody. Prisoner—l maw the complainant plying for hire, and all I said was, " Take it home." Mr. Tyr;vhitt—WlyVasthe complainant not to drive? Prisoner—That's right enough ; but he had no Stamp office plate. Isaac Powell, a cab proprietor, said—l was walking up Regent-street last night with the prisoner and two other men when I heard the complainant say, " Cab, sir ?" and I said, " No, take it home ;" the reason why I said so being that he had only a chalk number on his cab. Mr. Tyrwhitt—You were, in fact, enforcing the act of parliament?- . . _ . Witnese—Yea. The complainant had no plate on his cab. The complainant said, " Lock that man up," and the constable came up and did so. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Did the prisoner never take hold of the complainant Witness—Not at all. Two other witnesses were called by the prisoner, and they gm c similar evidence. Mr. Tvrwhitt (to the constable}—What made you take the prisoner? Constable—Becaute I saw him make a deliberate attempt to overthrow the complainant's cab. Mr. Tyrwhitt said there was a conflict of evidence which might well be expected in such a ease. He bad no doubt the complainant and the constable had told the truth, the more especially as it was not likely the constable would take the prisoner for nothing. As to what was said about the plate he put that out of the question altogether, for as the complainant bad no fare it did not matter. Nothing could be more foolish than the prisoner's conduct in trying to pull the complainant off the box. Such conduct would make the public, who were friends of the cabmen and wish to benefit them, more against them than anything they could do. The cabmen threw away their case by doing such a thing. Such acts must be prevented, and he felt it his duty to fine the pri soner 40a., or 14 days. IViUinw Reed, badge 9,259, was next charged with using la towards the same complainant, calculated to pro voke • oh of the peace. James Buckingham said—Last night I was waiting at Her Majesty's Theatre to take up four ladies, when the prisoner came up with an unlit link in his hand.' There were several then with him, and he attempted to throw my cab over. 1 gave him into custody, and he was taken to the station, but I was told to take out a summons at this court. On leaving the station, having lost my previous fare, I took up a lady for the New North-road, Islington, and directly the fare got into my cab the prisoner said , " You —, break your neck before you go home." The prisoner then tried to pull the had out of the cab. I drove on, and the pri soner let go the door, and then seized my horse's head and tried to pull the horse up, and made use of threaten ing language. A police-constable who saw what was going on came up, end I gave the prisoner into custody. Prisoner—What were you doing in the Haymarket Complainant—Waiting to take up a fare. Prisoner--You had no plate on your cab, the number was chalked. Thomas Pratt, 107 C—At 20 minutes past 11 last night I was in Piccadilly and saw the prisoner run after the com plainant's cab and take hold of his horse's head. The pri soner said, " Policeman, take that -- off the box or I'll smash his cab up, as he has got a fare without having the Stamp-office plate on his cab." Mr. Tyrwhitt—There seems a newly-born wish to comply with the act of parliament. Pratt—The complainant then said, "I will give the prisoner into custody for using threatening language to me," and I took the prisoner into custody. Several men were inciting the prisoner to pull the complainant off his cab. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Was the prisoner sober? Pratt—He had been drinlang. Police-constable Cane, 35 C—l saw the prisoner open the cab-dour, and try to poll the lady out. The prisoner wanted to give the complainant into custody for driving without a Stamp•offce plate, saying that if I did not take him he would break his neck, and smash his cab. The prisoner was taken to the station, and the lady, after the charge was taken, not deeming it safe to go with the com plainant alone, the sergeant sent me with her to see to her safety. _ _ . - The prisoner —I only stopped the complainant because be was driving without the Stamp-office plate and I thought it hard on other men who were not driving, and then I was taken into custody. Cane—The oomplainsnt had a plate with him but took it off, thinking if he did not do so others would, and he then chalked his number on the csb. Mr. Tyrwbitt—l consider the prisoner's conduct to be of the moat blackguard and violent character, and I shall order him to find two bail in 10/. to keep the peace for three months, and if the lady bad attended it would have been for six months. In an action for breach of promise of marriage, tried yesterday at the Manchester assizes, and in which the correspondence read was of the usual character, damages were given for 1501. Two failures in the Lancashire cotton trade for somewhat large amounts are reported.

One of the actor in the theatre at Wurzburg, Bavaria, has been arrested on a charge of lilse-maje•tb, for having whilst on the stage made certain allusions to the breal-ing•off of the King's marriage. Blondin, while performing a few days back at Cologne, fell from the rope and broke his arm. The Italia of Naples gives the following news as to brigandage :—MM.

The mail leaves for London at 11.30 a.m. CONSERVATIVE DEMONSTRATION AT MA LDON. The Maldon Conservative Club held its anniver sary meeting last evening, Mr. H. J. SELWIN-IBBrrsoN, M.P., presiding. There were also present Mr. G. M. W. Sandford, M.P. for the borough, and Lord Eustace Cecil, M.P.; Mr. Earle, M.P., the other sitting member for Malden, was not present. The borough will in future parliaments return only one member. Mr. Sandford, in addressing the meeting, said his prin ciples were the same in 1867 as in 1854, when he was first returned for the borough. He had always con sidered that one of the great defects of the old Reform Bat was the monotony of suffrage which it introduced ; and he feared that we had now substituted one monotony of suffrage for another. What he should have desired would have been some system of representation by which the interests of a greater variety of classes would have been secured. It would be no use to make a conces sion of a popular suffrage if it was not followed up by popular measures, and he was prepared for his own part to support a popular and progressive policy. The chairman said he had always been one of those who thought that, from the increase of population and the extension of education, the time had coma for a measure of reform ; and he had therefore approved the policy pursued by the government. Whether for good or evil, the reform bill of last session was an accomplished fact, and he would ask all parties not to peas judgment upon it too hastily, but to rely on the good feeling, the common sense, and the love of order and good government which charac terised Englishmen. The education question would now demand attention. He believed we were far behind other countries in the amount of education offered to the people. At the same time, we must avoid the risk of over-educating people into dissatis faction with their lot in life. Lord E. Cecil, who was suffering from indisposition, responded to the toast of the "Conservative members present." After touch ing upon reform, the state of Ireland, I,:c. the noble lord said the new constitutional party, whether com posed of conservatives or moderate liberals, would have to open its arms wide, and throw aside all narrow pre judices. So only would it be able to resist violent and revolutionary changes, and reconcile the old state of things with the new. THE ANGLICAN AND GREEK CHURCHES. The following letter (in Greek) will be forwarded, with a copy of the Anglican Encyclical, to all the patriarchs and bishops of the Greek Church by the Archbishop of Canterbury : . . (Translation.)

Thomas as the chief West India Packet station. On Friday Mr. Schreiber will call attention to the absence of all information in the papers laid before parliament about Mr. Rassam's mission to King Theodore, and the manner in which it was discharged. In the House of Lords, to-morrow, Earl Ruts sell will ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether be has any objection to produce the correspondence with the government of the Emperor of the French respecting • cm.ference on the affairs of Rome ; and, if there is any objection to produce the correspondence, whether he will state what has passed on the subject of any such con ference. We have been informed, on reliable authority, that the Earl of Cranard has become a member of the Roman catholic church. —Saunders's News-Letter. UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH.

Tue MANSION-HOUSE NEST INDIA HURRICANE RELIEF FUND.—During the week which has now elapsed since the commencement of this fund, the subscriptions have amounted to 15,4501. . - FENIAN PURCHASES OP ARMS.—We reported on Monday the examination of a man who gave his name as "Pherson," and who was arrested last week, in Manchester. with a quantity of revolvers in his possession, supposed to be intended for Fenian conspirators. Previously to the attack on the Manchester prison van, and the murder of Sergeant Brett, a number of pistols were bought in Birmingham, by strangeis, and some of throe weapons were identified with those found on the spot after the rescue of Kelly and Delay. The Mains persons have since been in Birmingham, making fresh pup. cha see, and yesterday, we believe, the man now in msto4 at Manchester was identified as one of the purchasers of the arms bought here both before and subsequent to the Man chesteroutrage. Thereis, consequently, reason for 'opposing that an important capture has been made by the Blanches ter pollee. The prisoner stands reManded until Friday, when he will again be brought up at the Manchester police court, and witnesses from Birmingham will be in attend ance.—Bientinoham Poet. _ . _ ADMIRALTY ' Dec. 3.

I remember his (Lord Macaulay) once describing to us the character and sayings of Lord Thttrlow ; and he told a story of that large-eye-browed personage which I never heard before, and each of you ought to give me half-a crown at least, if I agree to tell you. Are the half-crowns forthcoming? (We nodded assent.) Well, those were days when we had not the infliction of railways, and when barristers, even on the Northern circuit, travelled in post chaise*. It fell to the lot of a very saintly good man, to have to travel with Thnrlow , who was then Attorney- General. A journey to the North was a serious thing in those times, and my saintly friend dreaded the long jour ney, with the blustering Attorney-General, who he was sure would utter many naughty words before they arrived at York. They had hardly left London before the good man remarked, "We shall have a long journey, Mr. At torney, and so I thomicht I would bring some books to amuse us. I daresay it is a long time since you have read Milton's ' Paradise Lost.' Shall I read some of it to you It will remind us of our younger days." (In those days men read great works ; for there were not so many books of rnbbishing fiction, to which the reading energies of the present day are directed.) " Oh, by all means !" said Thurlow, " I have not read a word of Milton for years." The good man began to readout his Milton : pres ently he came to the passage where Satan exclaim, • Better to reiv in hell than serve in Heaven." Upon which Thurlow eximed, " A d—d fine fellow, and I hope he may win." My saintly friend in horror shut up his " Paradise Lost," and felt that it would be no good mding to the Attorney-O•neral, if he was to be interrupted by such wicked exprensions of sentiment.—Mamillan's Magazine for December.

The fresh receipts of home-grown wheat on sale here, to-day, were only moderate, but with the supply remain ing unsold on Monday were more than adequate to satisfy the limited requirements of the few millers m attendance. Both red and white parcels moved off slowly, at that day's reduction in value. The bulk of the 'supply came to hand in fair average condition. The market was well supplied with foreign wheat. In all descriptions, sales progressed slowly, on former terms. The floating cargo trade was generally quiet in tone. Maize, being scarce, was firmly held. Fine malting barley, of which very little war on offer, changed hands at full currencies. Grinding and distilling sorts were difficult to sell, at late quotations. Malt was in seasonably good supply and sluggish request, at previous prices. A fair average business was pealing in oats, and prices ruled firm. Beans were steady in value, with a fair inquiry. Peas commanded but little attention, at Monday's quotations. Flour was quiet, on former terms. There was very littlo inquiry for agricultural seeds. Prices, however, were without change. Linseed and rape seed moved off slowly. Cakes were dull. _ __ _. OATIL L I. Scotch potato Irish, black „ whit* 2O to 29 ExauBN. Par Qr. Viral?. I. a. rain, %eat, red, 'M 9‘.
