Henry eterens was charged on a summons with unlaw fully, fraudulently, and clandestinely carrying off from the premises, No. 9, Hardington-place, his goad same s and chattels to prevent the landlord from diatraining the for rent.

There was now two months due, and I went up a few days after and asked him for the rent, and said if he did not pay I must enforce i t. I went up a de ariu • few days after that and found the goods gone and r dent said he removed them to avoid a distraint upon them. The value of the goods would be about 131. James Coleman, a lad, said he remembered the goods being removed. Defendant said Mr. Cook had not performed what be promised. The place was in • bad state and out of repair. Mr. Cook produced an agreement, wherein it was stated the defendant was to keep the place in order. Defendant said the value of the goods was only 5/. Mr. Mansfield said the evidence wax so vag ue upon that point that he could hardly come to a conclusion. Mr. Cook said he should think when he was at the plus the vales was 151. Defendant remarked that they did not cost him that. Mr. Mansfield said for the valuation of these goods and for the ends of this case he would put the value at 101., an d order that amount to be paid in a ddition to 2a. costa, or in default the defendant to be imprisoned for two months. Defendant--What ern I to do? Mr. Cook—l say in this court that lam willing to come to some arrangement. Defendant—l have not 3/. worth of goods in the world. Mr. Mansfield — Then you will have to go to prison. An arrangement was ultimately come to between the parties, and defendant was liberated. SOUTHWARK. DISTURBANCE AT A RAGGED SCHOOL. Two impudent-looking Irish lads, named Palmer and Collins, were placed at the bar before U r. Burcham, charged with being concerned with two otters not in custody in creating a disturbance at the New.cut Ragged School, and wilfully damaging the stairs. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Richard Sir:amends, the schoolmaster that the school wee established some time ago by Mr. Edward Groves and other gentlemen for the purpose of giving a free education to the very poor and homeless boys in the vicinity of the ?her mit, and that there were about a hundred and thirty who regularly attended. There were a number of vicious lads who bad been received in the school but not conforming to the roles they bail left, and for same timthe e past had been • great mime of annoyance to him and well conducted scholars. Between 3 and 4 in the after noon he heard a fearful noise on the stairs of a number of persons jumping and dancing and shouting to such a degree that he was compelled to suspend the business of the school, and on going to sce what was the matter be saw the prisoner and two others rush out. Witness pursued them and saw the I prisoners taken into cuatody. When they were brought back to the school, he discovered that one of the railings of the staircase had been cut, so that had any weight been put on it, it must have given way, and somebody might have been injured. Mr. 8111.61,111 asked if he knew the prisoners. Witness replied that be only knew them as annoying the scholars in the school. He did not think they ever be lonaed to the school. Edward Newton, iG M, said be saw the prisoners and several other young vagabonds rush out of the entrance of the school, shouting and screaming. He caught bold of the prisoners and took them back, when Mr. Simmonds gave them into custody. In answer to the charge, The prisoners said tbi y were pushed into the passage by some other boy., and were running a way when the con stable caught them. If his worship would let them go this time they would never go there again.' Mr. liurcham told them that they were vicious bad boys, who would not go to school themselves, end tried to prevent others from going the re. If they sev came before him again he would punish them with great erity. They were then given up to their parents. (TIM DAY.) COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.

DIATRRANIXO SC ICIDE or A BARRISTER. —A good deal of excitement was occasioned on Tuesday last at Maidenhead. on its liecoiging known that Mr. Henry Scott Greeley, barrister-at-law, the only eon of the Rev. Wm. Greeley, the highly respected incumbent of All Saints Church, Boyne-hill, had committed suicide. Much sym pathy was felt for the family. The deceased was only married as recently a. the 'Nth November last, and only returned from his wedding tour within the last fortnight. An inquest was held on Wednesday last at the school. and a room, Boyne-hill, before Mr. R. Clarke, coroner, respectable jury, Mr. Durraut, ex-Mayor of Maidenhead, Ming the foreman. From the e. idence of Dr. Plumbe and other witnesses, it appeared that the deoessed, since hi. return from his wedding tour, had laboured under delusions, and that his manner and conversatidon indicated that he was not of sound min, so much so that on Monday last his father req uested Dr. Plumbe to are him as to his mental coition.d his Dr. Plutnbe law the decease.) on that lay , and foun ma nner different from what it had been, and that his memory was defective and immediately oa hi. return home i.e wrote to the father of the deceased stating that it would be well to watch the deceased till his health i m proved. This unfortunately was only mrtially carried out, fur the following mornin g the deceasedwas discovered in hi. arming room with a frightful incised wound in his throat which he had inflicted with a razor. DT. Plumbs. who was on his way to call upon the deoevned, was in im mediate attendance, but the wound was too severe to admit of any hope, and death ensued in about an hour. oThe medical evidence weut to prove that other members of the deceased's family had been of unsoun d mind, and that no doubt deceased's ease was one of hereditary in sanity. There was not the least reason for the deceased committing the rash act. The jury returned • verdict to the effect that the dec eased destroyed himself, being at the time of unsound mind.—Berke Chronicle. EXTRAORDINARY MARRIAGE. —A marriage took place a few days ago, in a village not far distant from Reading. under very pecu liar circumstances. The cere mony, which was performed in accordance with the rites of the Church of England, took place in the house of the bridegroom, who at the time of the wedding was, and we believe still is, supposed to be in a dying state. He had to be lifted from his bed, wrapped in blanket', and carried into the roma in which the ceremony was to take place. He was 'imported while the ceremony was being read, and at its conclusion wes oonveyed back to his bedroom. An inquiry will naturally suggest itself as to the motive which could induce persons to be married under such circurostanoes. We understand that the facts are these :—The bridegroom was left some years ago a widower, with a family. His Gist wife, when dying, desired that the young lady (who subsequently became the the second wife) should have the care of the children. This desire was fulfilled, and it was, we believe, in order that this lady might have the right to continue to take charge of the children that a marriage was proceeded with although the surrounding circumstances were so strange and so gloomy. It was necessary before the marriage could take place, that fk special license should be obtained Read from the Archbishop of Canterbury. A gentleman - , ing had an interview with the archbishop, and, the facts having been laid before him, his grace granted the special license—Bert Chronicle. CHARDS OF DISLOYALTY AGAINST A SOLDIER IN Mneeeterren.—We regret to have to add another to the in stances of disloyal conduct on the part of soldiers of the British army. The charge of sedition which was preferred against Sergeant kl*Guixe, of the 72nd Highlanders, has bean followed by a similar accusation against Bernard Coyne, a private in the hamar regiment now lying in the lialme Barracks, in this city. We are informed that made himself ooespicomis, w hen out of barracks, I fINI: violent denunciations of the government in regard to their Irish policy and the execution of the murderers of Sergeant Brett. On ens oceaaion, at a public-house• non in D ea nagate, his conduct attracted the attention of comm i ss ioned officer of • foot regiment and the landlord of • publichouse, and be was given into custody on • charge of using seditious language. Coyne was tried by court-martial at Halms Barracks, bat the finding of the court has not yet, as we are informed, been made known. The witnesses against the primmer were of opinion that be was quite sober when be used the words upon which the charge was founded.—ifantheffer Guardian. OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE , (Before the Judge Ordinary.) ~.‘l.!e; 1.. EDWARDS AND THLOBALD (OTHERWISE SEAWARD). i • looming Dr. Spinks, Q.C. (with him Dr. Tristram), 111, the countercharge against the petitioner ; and ' .tern's Advocate (with him Mr. Clarkson), replied in ,half. i Judge Ordinary said there could be no doubt as to ,uilt of the respondent.

It was also plain that a similar state of things isted after the young man (who had enlisted) had '..fined his discharge from the army. Judging, therefore, • well as it could from the evidence (and the state of the .v, which forbade the parties from themselves giving • ..lence, was much to be regretted), the court could not • y that the charge of desertion was made out.

" How the devil should you sleep when you will never lie still a moment !" be cried, with an impatience which those who have watched by deathbeds will at least understand.

The price opened at 107 to 108, being 4 per cent. lower, and although a partial relapse has since taken place, the reduction since yesterday amounts to 2 per cent. The total fall in two days is consequently nearly 8 per cent. Many of the transactions are speculative, but it is stated that a large amount of "pawned" stock has been sold.
