The Earl of DERBY, in presenting a petition from the inhabitants of the parish of St. George the Martyr, South wark loonesiaing about 23,000 inhabitant., mostly of the poor and labouring dowse) in reference to the system of the metropolitan railways which was now going on in and about London, aid the parish of St. George was densely crowded, and that that overcrowding had been much increased by the number of railways which had been introduced into the metropolis. The railways through this parish had taken away 100 houses, occupied by about 300 families, and as it was cot pcesible to obtain any mew house socommodation for them, the overcrowding was still going on most extensively. Some time ago his noble friend Lord Shaftesbury made a proposition that all metro politan railways should be compelled to erect additional building■ as a oompereation for thine taken down. That was found to be impracticeble, and he els afraid that the resolution which the hones came to, that all railways should provide such buildings, had proved to be no protection at all. The petitioners prayed (and it wee not unreasonable or unworthy of serious sonsideration) that those railway companies which bad ob tained permission to construct metropolitan termini should be compelled to run at lest one train in the morning and one in the evening at a very low rate of charge, in order to accommodate those persons who might wish to be taken out into a more healthy neighbourhood to reside, sod be brought back a gai n to their work. The petitioner, sug gested that the fares should be as low as ld. per trip,what ever the distance might be. He (the Earl of Derby) believed that there was one railway company that had already inti mated their intention to start such trains at a rate not higher than la. per week for any distance not exceeding tan mass and that that company wee the Loudon, Chatham; and Dover. He thought the suggestion was one worthy of their lordships' counideration, and also whether it would not be right to insert a clause in each of the bills before parliament requiring that such trains in and out of London should be run morning and evening at each bows aa might be suitable to the labouring classes If that were done it would give an immense relief to the large population of this sod other parishes, and enable the people to return to their homes without much loss of time. He was not prepared to move anything on the subject, but he hoped his noble friend the President of the Domicil would consider the matter, and would confer with his noble friend the chairman of committees, and see whether it would not be possible, and if so not desirable, that some such clause should be introduced into all metropolitan milt/sty bills passing through the house in the course of this session. (Hear, hear.) The'Earl of ILLIMESBURY said the system which his noble friend recommended had been carried out in Paris, and he understood that all railway companies there were obliged to carry the workmen of Paris in and out at a certain low rate of f►re. Earl GRANVILLE was understood to say that he would communicate with his noble friend and also with his right hon. friend the President of the Board of Trade on the subject. Earl RUSSFLL was understood to say that he bad been informed by the Bishop of London that be bad given very great attention to the subject, and that he had found that one great difficulty was that railway companies possessed no powers to purchase land for the purpose of erecting suck buildings thereon. The Earl of DERBY—I do not say that these commit, its should be hound to provide the land, but that they should be couipeUed to grant facilities for carrying the working damn to ►ud from the outskirts of the metropolis at low fares. After • few words from Lord °wawa; which were inaudible in the =the petition was laid on the table and the subject THE KEARSAGE.—ENLISTING IN IRELAND FOR THE FEDERAL SERVICE. The Rut of DOSOUGHMORE said that at the last Cork Assizes certain parsons pleaded guilty to an indictment for having broken the Foreign Enlistment Act, and that they were released from custody on their own recognxanosa. The offence was having, as subjects of her Majesty, enlisted to serve on board the United States ship of war Sausage. The niptain of that vessel stated that these men came on board without his knowledge, and that when the vessel arrived at Brest he put them ashore, bat as they were there without the means of subsistence he sent them beck 'gain to Oork. When the subject was last alluded to the noble lord opposite (Earl Russell) made what certainly appeared to be a very extraordinary statement, for he said he coold not see what else the captain could have done. That was a very remarkable statement, because it appeared from the evidence which had been taken that the men were actually put into the uniform of the United States navy by the order of the officers of the ship. He (Sari Dononglimore) would like to know whether the noble earl had required any explanation from the American minister in regard to all these farm. Earl RUSSELL said be had complained to the United States misuser of the conduct of the officers on board this vessel of war. After what bad mimed in that house, and after what bad taken place in • court of justice in Ireland he had asked the United States minister to refer to the newqrapers and to the opinion given by Mr. Justice Keogh on the subject. The United States minister informed him that io November last he received iostructione from his government that if the consul had been instrumental io vio lating the Foreign Enlistment Act be should be at ones dismissed ; and that as regsrded the officer In command of the ship, if he (the United States minister) found he was to blame, he was to be reported to his government, in order that proper notice might be taken of his 000 duct Mr. Adams did not act upon those instructions, because be did not consider that there was any blame to be found either as regarded the weed or the (Clair in command of the ship in sighting these persons for the United States service. The letter of Mr. Adams referred to other met. ten, or he would have laid it on the table of the house. The Earl of DARBY said it appeared that Mr. Adams did not deny the essential has of the cams, viz., that thine men were 'teeniest by the surgeon and attested ; that their 11111111111 were borne on the books of the ship ; and that they were clothed in the uniform of the United States service. With these facts before them it was impossible that the officers could not be cognizant of them. (Hear, hear.) The Marline of CLANRICARDE said that he had bees informed that the Keernage was now repairing at one of oar porta, and if so why should not the officers come to Loudon and state the real facts of the case? It was too much to extend to them the hospitality of the country in the face of such statemeeta as those made at the trial at Cork. There could be no reason for delaying • full inquiry into this matter. Let the men come forward and state the real facts to Mr. Adams, and lat him vouch for their accuracy. No one would he prepared to dispute what he vouched for. The subject then dropped. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Bedford Gas, the Clayton, Allertoa, and Thornton Gas, and the W=toa (Salop) Markets Bills were reed a third time and PUBLIC 81711121F9fi.

The Bills of Exchange and Promissory Noise (Ireland) Bill was read a third time sod passed. THE REMOVAL OP BRITISH CONSULS FROM THE OONFEDERATE STATES. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE, in moving for the correspondence with the government of the Confederate states relative to the removal of British consuls from their territory. complained that the facts of the several cases had not been fairly represented by the government, and that in some instances the consuls had been removed owing to the representations of the Federal government, and had not been driven out, u insinuated, for their conduct in opposing the forcible enlistment of British subjects in the Confederate army, although be believed the interference of some of these functionaries had been intolerable. He did not go the length of desiring the recognition of the Con federacy ; but there was no doubt that the want of accre dited officials had been productive of much inconvenience and ices. le hisopinion this want might be supplied with out recognising the Confederate state.. Earl HUBBELL, in reply, said that complaints bad over and over again reached him that British subjects bad been obliged to serve in the army of the Confederate states, and on the question being referred to the law came of the crown they had given their opinion that it was illegal to compel the subjects of her Majesty to serve in the army of either belligerent without giving them time and opportunity to quit the country if they thought proper. For himself, he had taken the utmost Plin to act impartially as be tween b o th sides, and he admitted that the conduct of some of our consuls bad been most improper, although the Cosfeddrate government bad acted with considerable harahu,sa. He had endeavoured to devise some means of supplying the place of consuls for the protect:on of British interest* in the Confederate states, and bed entered into communication with Mr. Mason, one of the Confederate commissioners, for that purpose, hut as yet without result. He regarded the re lease of the Saxon as guaranteeing the justice of the Federal courts, and expressed his readiness to remonstrate with the United States government in any case where the Foreign Enlistment Act appeared to have been violated. As to the motion for correspondence, provided it were altered by the iosertioo of the words "copies or extracts of," and the words "so-called" before "Confederate states"—for otherwise it would appose that the house had recognised those stake before her Majesty had done so—he Should have no ohjeetioa to the proposal. The motion thus amended was agreed to, and their lord ships adjourned ate quarter to 7 o clock. HOUSE OF COBEKONS.—TCZI3DAT, Amu 5. The house met et 4 o'clock. CAPTAIN MELVILLE WHITE.

He admitted that the present system of assessment might be uneetisfaiitory, but thwoomequenes of agreeing to the motion would be that In perishes where one half of the property had for 200 years put belonged to thegovernment, the whole of the net of the property would be relieved from • charge which it bad borne fora period that wee practically immemorial, and that would be an operation footman* to lthe endow ment of the ntrepayen of that particular perish out of the national exchequer. It was in short a peered to throw on the rural pariabes and those plasm which did not poems government establishments a new . and gratuitous burden. for the ptupose affordiog • gratuitous relief not founded on justice to the mere handful of parishes that happen to have each establishments. F. BARING remarked that an attempt to intro duce • bill would reveal the difficulty of dealing with this subj.* After a few observations by Mr. Dutton, Mr. B. Carter, and Mr. Augeretein, and • brief reply by Aldermai; Solommis, The house divided, when the numbers were : For the motto° 3O Against it 52-22 TURNPIKE TRUSTS COMMITTER _ Upon the motion thattite;;Wctc;mmiite; on Turnpike Trusts' omelet of 15`nuenbers, A Mr. FERRAN D objected to the construction of this com mittee, and suggested the postponement of the nomination of members for a week, with a view of adding ono or two names of members of the manufacturing counties. Mr. CLIVE defended the construction of the committee. The motion was then mused to. 'SUPPLY. On the motion for bringing up the report of supply, Mr. YORKE asked a question of the noble lord the Secre tary to the Admiralty relative to the captains who bad been placed upon the retired list in 1846, sod wished to know whioydry were not entitled to the k ey of 255. a day. C. PAGET said there were some few gallant of who came under the order of council of 1860, and it might perhaps be considered that their position wee not to them an advantageous one, still it was not so prejudicial as supposed by the hoo. member. These officers had had thenpii of retiring, but they bad elected to remain upon the active list, and they bad had the bloat of an immediate rise in their pay from 10t or 12s. 6d. to 18.. per day, but in the noun. which they had take° they had loft the rise to 26e. per day. In dealing with this case the Duke of Somerset had given it very serious consideration, and he had come to the conclusion that it could not be treated as an exceptional one. Several o®oo3ll had preferred the retirement under the order of 1860, as giving them en immediate rise in pay, and which they would not have had but for that order. The committee of last year also considered the matter, end were of opinion that these officers ware not entitled to any °rasp timbal privilege. The report was then agreed to. THE UNION RELIEF Apr) ACTS CONTINUANCE The amendments to this bill were considered and agreed to, and the bill ordered to be reed a third time tomorrow.

The plaintiffs In this action were Mr. Thpron, the pro pristor of the Argyll-rooms, sod M. Louis JOU", the son of the late M. Jai», and the defendants were Mr. Maplaeon, the lessee of Hie Majerty's Theatre, sad his treseerer, Mr. Cowen, and it ins »es& to mom a sum of 70 1 . , which it was alleged was a balanoe remaining in the hands of the latter at the tertnication of the short prome nade woos» season at Her Majesty's Theatre lad December. llerjeant Parry and Mr. Waskia Williams we» for the plaintiffs ; and Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. Prentice were for the defendanta. The COIN occupied the court several hours, bedth e real question at issue appeared to be a very simple one. From the opening statement of the plaintiffs counsel it seemed that last Novembes M. Jullien, with Mr. Signal', entered into an t with Mr. Maplseca for the use of Her Majesty'sbe Theatre for aperiod of six weeks, for the pur pose of giving Promenade Concert. under the direction of M. Jollies, it being 'rouged that the season should termi nate with a " hal d'opera , and Mr. Mapleson was to receive onalifth of the clear reee/pla every night, it being guaran teed that his share should be 201., to be made np,,to that amount if the one-fifth of the receipts did not produce that sum, and he was to receive one-third of the receipts taken at the ball. The speculetion did not appear to have turned out • very enoceisful one ; but it was stated that all she tradesmen and .11 the artistes were paid, and at the close of the 11(411100 there was • sum of about 7W. in the bands of Mr. Cowen, the treasurer, who, it should be stated, was appointed to that office by the other defendant, Mr. Mapleson. It apparel that when M. Junin applied for this money the only objection that was made to giving it up was that during the period M. Jullien had,been in pto main of the theatre, an .rgan that formed part of the theatrical properties had received some damage, which under the agreement he was bound to make good. The intros of this damage was estimated by Mr. Robson, the well-keowu organ builder, who was well acquainted with the instrument, at 351. ; but Mr. Davison ' another eminent organ-builder, who was called in by the defendants, estimated the damage at between 701. sod 801., and this seemed to be the real question at issue between the parties, the plaintiffs ad mitting their liability to repair the instrument, but object ing to the jvioe of the repairs as estimated by the defendanta, and they *ought to recover by the present action the money that was admitted to be in the hands of the defendant COllOll, leaving the question rebiting to the repair of the organ to be disposed of aft erward.. The matter was soma what complicated by the fact of the defendant Cowen, who of muse had no interest in the matter, having paid the 701. into court, and applied to one of the learned judges (Mr. Justice Mellor) to release him from the responsibility of being a defendant io the action, and his lordship, it ap thereupon made an order that Mr. Mapleson should C a substituted u the defendant in his place. This created • good deal of technical difficulty with regard to the plate that had been placed upon the record, but the substactial question was whether the plaintiffs had nude out their elaim to the balance that remained at the close of the season. The case, se above stated, occupied a considerable time, and resulted to the jury returning a verdict foe the plaintiffs. (Before the Chief Baron and a Special Jury.) INONVONGIR V. THB LONDON. BRIGHTON, AND sours COAST RAILWAY COMPARY.--IRONRONORR ANo Inn V. TUB AML -IMOIIIIOIIIOII3 711.11 TOCINOILE V. THI These were actions to recover damages for injuries sus tained by the fins-mentioned plaintiff, his wife and son, by the negligeom of the defendants. Mr. Montagu Chambers, Q.C. and Mr. Garth were coun sel for the plaintiffs ; and Mr. Bovill, Q.C., and Mr. Han nan appeared for the company. These actions arose out of an accident of a serious cha racter that occurred on the 18th of October last to an ex. curios train returning from Portsmouth to London, at the Three Bridges Station, upon which occsaiou, it will be recollected, a great many of the passengers mooned injuries. The cue thet was tried was that of the principal plain tiff, James Ironmonger, who, it appeared, was in the ser vice of Mr. Drew ' who carries on au extensive business as • publicans' biscuit manufacturer, at Shadwell, mid was em ployed by him to carry his goods to the different customers in a van, receiving, as was stated, wages to the amount of 41. per week. by sa lary and commimmo. The negligeoce was admitted, and the only question was whet amount of damages the plaintiff was entitled to recover. Acoordiag to the evidence adduced on his behalf be received a severe is jury of the side of the head, and on the ribs and other parte of the body, the consequence of which was that he was partially paralysed, and it was also stated that his left eye was injund, and that he would in all probability lone the sight of that eye, and possibly, by sympathy, also that of the other. Dr. Jams, of the Blackfriamroad his usual medical atteedatit, Dr. Foster. of Guy's Hospital, and Dr. Yates Hogg, the eminent oculist, deposed to these facts, and expressed their opinion that the plaintiff had received injuries of a permanent character which would prevent him for • long time, and possibly altogether, from following his mailman , occupation ; and it appeared that ewer since the scoideat be bad not been able to do anything in the way of earning • livelihood. Oa the part of the company it was contended that the injuries were not by any means of the serious character represented. and Mr. ' Dyer, a medical gentleman, of Forest-hill • Dr. Manakin, of the Epileptic Hospital, and also are of the physicians of the London Hospital; Dr. Wilkes, of Guy's Hospital and Mr. Haynes Walton, the senior surgeon of the Ophthalmic Hos pital, were called as witnesses, and the effect of their evi dence was to show that the eyes of the plaintiff were quite perfect, and that no trace of any derangement was observable in those organs, and also that there were not any symptoms of paralysis observable, and Mr. Walton observed that if there had been originally soy of the appearances that were spoken to by Dr. Hogg, they had passed away, and the healthy condition of the eye of the plaintiff was perfectly restored. All these geodes.' also expressed their opinion that in a very short time the plaintiff would be enabled to resume his usual occupation. The Chief Baron having summed up the whole of the evi dence on both aides, . . . The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 44.10/. The other two actions were not tried, the company having made an offer which was accepted without going into any widows. LAW OF HYPOTHHOS.

PENAL SERVITUDE BILL. Sir G. GREY intiesefed hi intention of postponing this bill from the llth to the 18th inst. LISBURN ELECTION 00101TITEE. The motion that Mr. Stirling be excused far not attending the committee on the Lisburn election upon Tuesday, the Shad of March, and that he be discharged from further atteodanoe on the committee, the debate upon which wee adjourned from Monday, we+ further discussed at consider able length. The opinions expressed with regard to the meaning of the act of parliament and the power of the committee to continue the Inquiry in the absence of one of its members, were various and conflictiog ; bat, upon the whole, the weight of the t appeared to be that, whilst the nonvittandatios of . Stirling on the 22nd having been duly reported to the house might be excused, any subsequent action on the part of the committee in the hoc. gentleman's absence mast be at their peril. Mr. Adair, the chairman of the committee, stated, however, that they were prepared to take the consequencee of prosecuting their labours ; end ultimately the lust portion of the motion was agreed to am. con. DEPARTURE OF MAILS FROM SOUTHAMPTON. Mr. BERKELEY asked the Uhanoellor of the Exchequer whether it was the intention of the governmect to change the port of departure of the mails from Southampton ; and whether, since a committee of the house decided in favour of Bristol as a pert of &won& but did not consider there was sufficient accommoiWion for ships and paseeogers, and those requirementa being now obtained by • projected railway to Portishesd, the Bristol Port Railway, and the projection of docke, a bill for which was before parliament, he would take the ease of Bristol into consideration. Mr. F. PEEL said there was no present intention of changing the port of departure of any of the mail, which now left Southampton. Is consequence of some memorials which had been received inquiries were being made an to what would be the advantage in point of time, and as to what additional subsidy would have to be gives if the West India mail packets which left Southampton were required to call at some port more southeroly than Southampton with the view of landing and embarking mails. He imagined that Bristol, as a port of cell for vessels stetting from Southampton, would be un suited. As to its being available as a port of departure, when any contracts had to be renewed the government would he unfettered with regard to the acceptance of encase on that subject, and such an offer would of course be taken into consideration. SEIZURE OF THE SAXON. Oolouel SYKES hiked the Duda Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he could give any Information to the house of the results of the reference to the Americas government respecting the seizure of the Saxon, and the conduct of Lieutenant Donoghue. Mr. LA YARD, in answer to the hon. and gallaot member, begged to state that from her Majesty's consul at New York they had learnt that the judge of the district court had decreed that the Saxon and her cargo should be deli vered up to their respective owners with all costa, charges, and expenses, reserving for futureconsideration the question of seizure and the forcible seizure. That was the only in formation they had. With regard to Lieutenant Donoahne, he believed he would be tried ; but he did not meetly know under what airtumetanee& DISMISSAL OF AN INSPECTOR OF SCHOOLS. Lord B. CECIL salted the Vioe•President of the Council if he would slats to the house the grounds upon which Mr Morel{ had been diamiased from the office of her Majesty's inepeetor. Mr. LOWE wee sorry the noble lord had thought it =to ask the question, because the punishment of hom office was a very seven one. He thought it would scarcely be fair to Mr. Monti if he were to undertake to state, az pert', to the house the grated' on which he was dismissed ; but if the noble lord wished to more for the warreepondeace on the subject, be would consent to its being produced. THE ARMY ESTIMATES. Colonel SYKES asked the Under Secretary for War when be intended to bring on the army estimates. The Marquis of HARTINGTON replied on Thursday evening, after the financial statement of the Chancellor of the Faehequer. RATMG OF PUBLIC BUILDINGS. Mr. Alderman SALOMONS rose to call attention to the exemption from local taxation now claimed on account of property in the occupation of government departments ,• and to mom, that all lands and buildings used and oecupied for public purposes should be assessed to local este, and pay rates accordingly. Tim boa. member said that this matter affected his constituents very largely, but also more or lees every town and district in the kingdom. The local burdens of the United Kingdom amounted in round numbers to 18,000,0001. sterling, or about the revenue of Spain or of Prussia. It was therefore most desirable that those bur dens should be equally distributed, but they found in every town in the kingdom some building, occupied by the Post-ofEc• or some other government establishment, which rimer contributed in any way to the expense of the local improvements. This wee a grievance in nerd to which petitions bad been presented from various garts of the country, aed it Ir as therefore a subject not only of local but of primal importance. MrAMORRISON, while seconding the motion, wished to state how the borough which he represented (Plymouth) had been treated by the Treasury in the matter of poor rate. flak...quietly to the decision of the committee of 1858 the amount to 1011 coatributed by goverment to the kcal rates wee settled by arbitration, and Is. 6d. was levied on the government Muldiege. This was paid, bat in the follow. ing year another rate wee levied and sent up to the Treasury, which he must my wee dealt with in an unfair and disingenuous manner. No answer was remind to the letters for some time, but at last they were informed that government could no longer contribute, because the govern• meet property formed so small a proportion to the property of the perish. la 1862 he (Mr. Morrison) and his colleague, the present Soliciter-Qmeral, asked for explanations at the Treasury, and were informed that as the government con tributiim was paid out of an animal vote the precedent wield not he held binding beyond one year. He trusted that the house at least, if not the government, would be convinced that ' , arid:ire in which government property was situated were entitled to some contribution to their local Mee. Mr. HAT KEY hoped the government would rot accede to the motion. Government estabbahmente were always of advantage to the localities in which they were situated ,• and besides, to pay these coutributions to local rates would be only adding to the general burthens of the taxpayer. Mr. 8. BOOTH said that it would be impossible to con tend for the total exemption of government property from local rates, seeing that the contrary principle had altesdy been admitted and acted upon. Mr. W. MARTIN denied that the borough which be represented derived any advantage from the portion which was government property, semi( that it was allowed to remain waste for strategic,' purposes. In St. Margaret's parish, Rochester, they turned military lunatics loose upon the streets, leaving it to the overseers of the poor to peck them up and ascertain as beet they could the pariah in which these lunatics had a legal settlement. Be believed that were it not for the government property the locality would have been long since improved, like other please along the line of the Thames and Medway. Mr. PEEL laid that government did not contend for the absolute exemption of government property, having for some years obtained an annual vote for the purpose of con tribution to the local rates. But there were circumstances 'bleb sometimes justified an exception to this rule, and it was not to be contended that government property was in all cases to be rated as if it were pnvate property. If, for example, there had for many years been in a parish a large property belonging to the government, it was manifest that most of the other properties io that parish must have been lewd or acquired with a full knowledge that the govern ment paid no rates. Take for example the cue ol Chelsea. Everybody that had bought or lased land in that parish knew the peculiar manner in which the rates were laid ; and therefore to discontinue the government exemp tion would be simply to make a present of the Improved value to the present owners. , Sir J. ELi'HINSTONE, who hed moved foe the cow mate., thought that a powerful cent had been nude oat for the motion. Mr. LOCKE had moved that the order of reference to the committee should be extended so as to apply to property held by charities and corporations ; for be did not see bow any occupation could be held to be not beneficial. He cer tainly °mkt not see why government should be dealt with differently from anyone sloe. A bill wiui brought in upon the report of the committee of 1804 which adopted this principle that all property of a public description should be rated for the relied of the poor. He was sure the Chan canoed the Exchequer would be the last penal, after the principle which he had advocated with regard to public charities, to say that the principle adopted by the then Home Secretary should not be applied now to all pablie inirtitutioas.

It was proved that the accused had worn out his uniform troweers by using them at Ins employment at Chatham dockyard, and that he bad been previously motioned for a similar offence. The court recommended that Earle should be peremptorily dismissed from the corps, which was sanc tioned by the Commandant, Captain Budden. EXECUTION IN lEKLAND.—Bernard Cangley, who was sentenced to death at the late assizes for Cheap, for the wilful murder of a farmer named Peter Reilly, was executed on Monday morning. The murder was perpetrated under circumstances of great atrocity. Some years ago Dangler wee in the employment of Reilly, and he then lost his hand through the bite of an sea. It would appear that he had some ill-feeling towards Reilly, for be returned to his home in January lut, and, though he wee hospitably received, he stabbed Reilly and his wife in the middle of the night. The former died in a short time after the infliction of the injuries. The prisoner always ad ! mated that be murdered Reilly, but be pleaded that he wee labouring under homicidal mania when he committed the crime. Since his conviction he exhibited the greatest in difference to his position. For several years past be led • life of crime and vagrancy.

NA RYLKBONL John Lereringion, o shoemaker, goes about with the ansistetwo of crutch, woe charted on his own confession with being concerned in the murder of Joseph Duck, in Little Chesterfield-etreet. Sergeant Dod, 28 D, stated that on the previous night the prisoner came to Mi.lyneuz-stnet station, and said he wanted to gin himself up for being commeroed with Arthur Devine in the murder of the man Duek. He said that he met Device, and they went to the neighbourhood of Marylebone-lane, where they met Duck. Devine spoke to him. Duck did not wish to speak with him, and walked away. Devine took • bar of iron which be bad sad struck him (Duck) oa the back of the head with it. Duck fell ou his knees, sod he (prisoner) struck him with his crutch. They then went away. Prisoner was then asked if he had anything more to say. He replied he bad not. He was not quite sober. That morning when sober he (prisoner) was asked if be still persisted in his assertion. He said he did, and it was quite right. Primmer now had nothing to say. Sergeant Dod— I believe the prisoner has been away for four years. lam informed also that be gave himself up to Inspector Sims for felony, and be then had throe months. Again, after that, be gave himself up for another felony on his own confession, and received then six months ' imp ison meat with hard labour. Sergeant White, 16 D, who has charge of the murder cue against Devine, said the prisoner now before the court had been • source of great trouble to the polios. Mr. Yardley passed • very high eulogium upon Sergeant White for the promptitude and energy displayed by him in apprehending the man Devine. As the prisoner was not thought to be of nue mind he was sent to the workhouse. THE MURDER IN CAMBEIDOI.—At the Cain bride borough gaol ors Monday, the Mayor (Mr. H. H. Hams), with Mr. Henry Smith and Mr. Charles Balls, were engaged for some hours in inquiring into the circum stances of this case. On the night of Sunday, the 3th of February, the house of two old ladies (a somewhat lone place known as Prospect Cottage) was entered, and both of these brutally attacked by a man masked and armed with a formidable carving knife and a bludgeon. He then mad* his escape. A man named George Morley Willis, a distant connexion of one of the old Wise, was &ppm headed on anspicion, the evidence against bite being of • strong circumstantial character. Eventually he was committed to the last maims for assault with intent to murder. The lives of both the old ladies hung trembling in the balance meanwhile, and on the 18th ult.., the day be. fore the commission day, one of them (Mrs. Haat) died. Under these circumstances a postponement of the trial was recommended by Mr. Justice Crompton, and agreed to by counsel on both Aide. His lordship also recommended the magistrates to begin de noro ; this they acoordiegly did on Monday, and after sifting a voluminous mass of evidence committed the prisoner Wallis on the capital charp of wilful murder. Willis, who was defended by Mr. Naylor, exhibited the utmost confidence and self-possession. The Town Clerk (Mr. C. H. Cooper) conducted the pros/cu. tion. The life of the second victim (Mrs. Walker) is still in danger. _ _ 41,1 AL PALACE. ONE SHILLING DAY. TutnnaT, Anil. s.—AdmiNdoos on payment, 774 ; ditto by mama tickets, 413 ; Meal, 1,187.
