CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (THIS DAY.) Th.- %mil session of the Central Criminal Court was 0p.•,,,.1 this morniug by the Lord Mayor, the Recorder, alder.. m ('hallis, and Alderman J. C. Lawrence, the ~!:.„ ,teder•slieriffs, .v.c. The first edition of the 1. fel it contains the names of Ilu males and 17 female l a is.•,..ts for mai at the present session. The committals . r , : From the City of London, 32 ; from the „f ; from Essex, 1 ; front the Aa r.. ,lty jo, isdiction, 1 ; from Kent, 16 ; and from the ....rely ..i "arre%, itt.

Tlo Recorder. in charging the grand jury, drew their afr o , ion to the fact that there were two cases of wilful meld. , which they would have to dispose of. The first wa s ~,•. against a man named Snelling for the wilful tom .1. ,of 1,14 wife. It appeared that they were both the w .,r,e for liquor, and the evidence before the magistrate was I hal the wife fell downstaiis :mil sustained injuries which would account fur her death ' but the evidence weold show that after the fall, anal while she lay on the .1,..r the prisoner raised her, heat her head t..veral times agaiust the wall. and kicked her with great violence in different parts of the body • and the testimony of the medical man went to establish that the violence ou it., part of the prisoner had tended toaccelerate her death. If so, it would be the duty of the grand jury to return a tn.. bill. There was a charge against two persons named Conde (man and wife) for the wilful murder of their male Iliad, whose death was caused from a want of sufficient Leal -in fact that the boy died from starvation. The first question for the grand jury would he whether the persons ehargtsl h a d th e means of providing proper food for the deceased; and the evidence would show that while the parents supplied pnmer and sufficient food for doe remt of the children, the deceased boy was ordered to stand Heide and refaced food, while the rest avrk. properly fed. The evidence would also show that the deceased used to rush to the rooms of other persons iu the same house, and would cry for pieces of bread, which he would eat ravenously. The death arose from starvation, and if the latter facts were proved to the sans ( iction of the grand jury, it would be well if they put the cane in a train for further inquiry before this court. The calendar contained a case of manslaughter committed under volt peculiar circuniatances. The person charred was mums! Henry M'Sweeny, nod it appeared that he, while in a state of intoxication, threw himself on the bed in which the cleansed, a child of only two months old, was sleeping. He remained on the body of the child, the result being that its death was nausedb suffocation. If that were so, the prisoner would he guilty of the charge imputed to him by the indictment. After briefly alluding to some minor cases the Recorder intimated that a charge of wilful mur der would be brought under their consideration against colenel Nelson and Lieutenant Brand, but as it had been his duty to make inquiries into the matter in Jamaica, and as lie Mul already expressed an opinion on the subject, he had felt that he was not the proper person to give the grand jury any directions in the use—that opinion had been :icquiniced in, and in consequence the Lord Chief Justice of England had kindly undertaken to come down on Wednesday morning, at 10 o'clock, to charge them in that particular case. The grand jury then retired to commence their labours. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. RORBERY AT THS CRYAORNE BRANCH TAVERN. jo , AN O'Anandl, a shabbily attired man, who described h0n...11 as a clerk, of no fixed home, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a plated dish carver, a fork, and spoon. the property of Mr. E. T. Smith, of the Cremorne Brunch Tavern. New Coventry-street. . . George Smith, cook in the employ of Mr. Smith, said that about 8 o'clock last night he was called by the porter, and told that there was a man in the kitchen. On going there be saw the prisoner, and asked him what he wanted. The prisoner offered him a penny, and said " Victuals." He told the prisoner that sort of thing was not allowed, and that be had seen him in the house before on the same errand. The loiter then showed the prisoner upstairs, and while the prisoner was going upstain he (wit sae) noticed that he had got something bulky in his pocket, DA asked him what he had got in it. Ho replied, " Nothing ;" but not being satisfied he put his hand into his pocket and took out a fish carver, a fork, and spoon, Mr. Smith's property, and of the value of 2,5.. The pri soner asked him to let him go, but he declined to do so, and gave him into custody. Police-constable Henry Farmer, 323 A, said that on receiving the prisoner into custody last night the prisoner nimbi no answer to the charge, but on the way to the station he said, " They wanted to have a lark with me by putting them into my pocket." In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the prisoner said he had nothing to say. Barns, the gaoler, said he believed the prisoner had been at the court before, and for felony. Mr. Tyrwbitt remanded the prisoner. WORSHIP-STREET. A DIFFICULTY. Rahert Carter, a greengrooer in Wellington-street, Stoke Newington, was brought before Mr. Newton on a warrant for neglecting and refusing to support his lawful wife and child. !dr. Stanton, clerk to the guardians of Hackney pariah, said that this was the fifth time defendant had been before the court for the offence in question, the last occasion wii seven weeks since, when it was agreed that he should allow his wife ss. a week for the maintenance of herself and only child, an inf►nt, until she obta"ied a situation, when such payment was to cease and he take charge of the baby, but this arrangement he had broken, and again she bee une chargeable to the parish. Mr. Charles Dalton, the relieving-officer, deposed that defendant had paid only two weeks' money, and that most reluctantly, and would not assign any reason for discon tinuing the sllowance,which he certainly could weU afford, u his earnings were at least Ida. a week. Defendant in explanation now said—l paid the se. until my wife got a situation ; I was then ready to take the child but when I went for it my wife and her mother threatened to " rip my guts" open if I dared to go there again. I did nut go again and my wife only stayed in her situation a short time. Mr. Newton—l have nothing to do with threats now. This warrant is for refusing to support your wife. Defendant—The door is always open. She enters when she pleases—sometimes 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning, and leaves when she pleases ; she can have a fair portion of whatever is there ; so I don't see why I should be charged with refusal to maintain her. A witness swore that this statement was true, and the wife, who was present, did not deny it. Mr. Newton— Well, if this is so there is a difficulty in the matter that I cannot clearly see my way out of. Mr. Stanton—There certainly is, sir; and this case has cost us more trouble than all others of the kind put to _ _ Mr. Newton—l can't advise one way or the other. (To the sife)—Your husband can't say more than " Here's a home• open for you." If he turns you out of doors, then apply to the parish, and he will have to take the conse quences. He is now discharged. You are both bad tempered. The parties then left the court. LAMBETH. I'HoCKING AHD FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE KENNINGTON- TAEK•EOAD. Henry KitigAtlqi, a carman, in the employ of Mr. Wat kins, salesman, of Farringdon-street, was charged before 31r. Elliott, with causing the death of a little boy named Charles Greedue. From the evidence of numerous witnesses it appeared that the boy wee running behind a light cart at • quarter past 5 o'clock on Saturday afternoon in the Kennington lurk-road, and suddenly darting from behind the eert he ran against the hone of the cart driven by the de fendant, and which was going in • contrary direction. The •heels went over the boy's body, but the little fellow got up and ran a short distance, but fell down with blood cashing from his mouth. He was taken to • surgeon's. but was quite dead. All the witnesses agreed that the sad affair was purely accidental. Mr. Elliott remanded the case pending the inquest, but admitted the defendant to bail in his own recognisance. of 20/. SOUTHWARK. 1. 9 i ET AT THE EMIITAL OP THE ACCCSED, M 4 ) ;.;; Ann was placed at the bar before Mr. Wootryeh, for final examination, charged with committing perjury at the mat Surrey --- It appeared from the evidence of Richard Kemp, one of th e chief warders at Wandsworth House of Correction, that on the sth of Mar c h two notorious thieves, named Wm. Carter and Wm. Garland, were tried at the Surrey slalom' for housebreaking and convicted by the jury. The prisoner at the bar was called forward as a witness en behalf of Garland and swore that be bad not been pre 'manly convicted ; that it was his brother, and that Oar w. 44 with her at the time. Witness had proved former convictions against him in which he was supported by a on4t.thle who had him in custody, consequently the evi dence given by the prisoner was false. Witness added that tuo Prisoner Garland was under his custody in Wands vorth•house of Correction from March to September last Year. _ . John Pomeroy proved taking Garland Into custody in 1a66, for stealing a truck, and he was tried and ten kneed to six mon th s h ar d labou r . Mr. James William Oakly, the assistant crier at the Surrey Sessions, maid he recollected Garland and Carter being convicted of housebreaking. The prisoner came for ‘-'rd 4 s a witness on behalf of the first-named prisoner, 'n.l he administered the oath to her in the usual way, and she kissed the book. She swore that Garland was not the m) , who was convicted in March last, but it was his hrother,as he was living with her at that time. William Fensum, 57 M, said he took the prisoner on a warrant, which he read to her. She admitted that the oath was AMinilltOrt , l to her at the time, but she never kissed the book. The prisoner said that wu true—she never kisiied the book. She was called forward at the impulse of the moment, sod was sorry for it. Mr. Woolrsch committed her to Newpte for trial.

METROPOLIS OAS BILL.—Sir S. Northeote has announced his willingness to introduce a new bill in which blanks would be left for all figures relating to price, rate of dividend, and the standard of gas. If this should prove satisfactory to the gas companies, he would withdraw the bill at present before the house. In the meantime he postponed the second reading to Thursday next. RP:PRESENTATION or BRISTOL.—The Bristol Times sad Mirror of Satunlay states that the liberals of that city have determined on bringing forward Mr. E. S. Ro- binson, the present mayor, as a candidate for the seat now held by Sir M.

THE LICENSING SYSTEM. —A meeting of vice praidents of the conference on the licensing system was held on Saturday afternoon, at the Earl of Shaftesbnry's residence, in Grosvenor-square. The principles of the Liverpool Licensing Bill were discussed, and it was re solved that the Earl of Shaftesbury, the Earl of Harrowby, the Earl of Lichfield, and Lord Lyttelton should be re quested toconsider the expediency of introducing a bill into the House of Lords with reference to the opinions expressed by the vice-presidents. SACRED HARMONIC SOCIETY. —M. Benedict's new cantata, " The Legend of St. Cecilia," will be again performed at Exeter-hall on Friday evening next, the lath instant. The performance will commence at eiiht o'clock. DELIBERATE MURDER. —At about 6 o cluck on Saturday evening a murder of the most deliberate kind was committed at Birmingham. It appears that Mr. John Pryse, brother to one of the partners in the firm of Messrs. Redman and Pryse, gunmakers, of Aston, Birmingham, had discovered that the cashier, James Scott, who is only 22 years of age, had been tampering with the account.. He was called into the office and charged with several de falcations. When he learned that Mr. John Pryse had made the discovery the prisoner went straight from the office to the gun department, where he selected a seven bsnelled revolver, ready loaded, and returned to the room in which his victim was seated. Without saying a word he deliberately shot Mr. Pryse through the body. The report of the pistol attracted atten'ion, and Mr. Redman and his partner ran to see what had happened. They were just in time to see the prisoner fire a second shot, and so kill his victim. The brother of the deceased took hold of the prisoner, and had the utmost difficulty in wresting the revolver from his hands. He succeeded at last, and then struck the pi goner about the head with it, wounding him severely. A constable was called in, but it was necessary to move the prisoner to the General Hospital. The pri soner is said to be well connected. A RAILWAY FEDERATION.—The suggestion for a railway federation is one that has seemed to commend itself to the plain sense of all parties. Each company might retain its existing organisation intact, not a single chairman or director or official need be displaced, and a federal council might be established to regulate the general relations of all, this council being com posed of the chairmen of each company with an inde pendent president. That this or any analogous scheme will be opposed by such few lines as may not be actually mixed up in the present distress, however much they may have squandered past opportunities, is highly probable, but it could at any rate be carried out in a minor degree by groups of lines such as the Brighton, the South I Eastern, the South Western , and the London, Chat ham, and Dover, and the results might be safely trusted to cause the others subsequently to fall into it. After a definite period it would be possible for an amalga mation to take place of the capitals of all the federated companies on a scale r uroportion to their market value, and if it should be u that the federation would defeat the very object for w hich the system of independent lines was first insisted upon—namely, the prevention of mono poly, the true mode of meeting that objection would be to provide that all profits above 10 or 15 per cent. should be applied to a reduction of faros. —City artide of the Tines. Qrtu THE Acron.—We are apt to think of this great player, who lived a good deal according to the jolly fashion of his rather too jolly days as a mere imbiber of claret and the most unctuous of Falstaff,. But, in offices of charity, rendered with exquisite delicacy, Quin's active life wears a very different aspect. How refined was the manner in which he forced upon penniless Thomson a hundred pounds ! It was a debt, he said, which he owed the poet for the pleasure he had experienced in reading his poems. What generous humour in his reply to half-starved Winston (for whom he had procured an engagement, and an outfit to enable him to enter on it with decency), who timidl asked, under the impulse of hunger, what he should' do for a little ready money for the next few days? " Nay," exclaimed Quin, " if you're in want of money you must put your hand in your own pocket." And when Winston did so, after Quin had left, he found a ten-pound note which Qum had placed there. Then what princely munificence there was in Quin's presenting 1,000/. to poor Ryan—old friend and colleague. By giving such sum, instead of bequeathing it, " I only," remarked the giver, " cheat the Legacy-office." If James Quin was not exactly a saint of the stage, he was, at least, exemplary in his charity, and what Thomson said of him on, was equally applicable to him off, the stage : tie known to keep Each due decorum. He knew, too, how to have the best of it in dissuasion with • bishop. When Warburton reminded him that God showed himself against the regicides by bringing them all to • violent and sudden death—which was not true Quin triumphantly refuted the logic which discerned God's wrath in individual affliction in his celebrated answer: " I would not advise your lordship to make that inference, for, if I am not mistaken, that was the case of the Twelve Apostles."—Corshai Magazine for April. DRILLING AND RR-DRILLING.—The hardest work to which • man can be put is that of which he cannot see the use, yet such is the work constantly demanded of a soldier in time of pease. Year after year he is put through " setting-op drill ;" he has to stand on one leg and go through a number of contortions which are hateful to an old soldier and perfectly useless, however useful they may be in setting up • round - sho uldered ploughboy or narrow-chested artisan. Then on full-dress parade be takes part in • series of manoeuvres at battalion or brigade drill, of whose meaning and object he is left in utter ignorance ; he learns his position as a right or left sle or as • number of his company ; but why he moves in certain directions, or why his battalion goes through these evolutions, he has no knowledge. Again he parades for " position drill," with more contortions, and such is his life from day to day. No matter how perfect in his drill, or how old a soldier he may be, no matter what foreign or active service he may have seen, he most go through this farce of drilling and re-drilling, till from sheer weari ness and disgust he becomes careless and slack, and degenerates from • smart quick man into an indifferent automaton. All this drill is only required because taught in this senseless manner, which compels men to learn by rote without appealing to their understanding, and because of our adherence to a cumbrous system of drill, which we shall bitterly regret the first time we have to meet an active enemy. Half the drill-book should be swept away. The cramping and complicated pivot system should be abolished ; a man's face should always be his front, his right hand always the right of his battalion or company, changes of front should be performed by the facing about of the line, and each man should learn to be more indepen dent than now.—Freeer's Magazine for ApriL ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, GRAY'S-INN.ROAD.—The number of patients relieved at this hospital during the week ending APRIL 6, was 3,506, of which 1,165 were DOW Mesa.

The disquieting aspect of the Luxemburg affair, the prospect of a rupture of our relations with Spain, and a fear that a defeat of the government on the reform question may lead to a dissolution of parliament and its concomitant check to trade, caused the stuck markets to open this morning with a very heavy [appearance, and an important and almost general fall has since occurred in prices. The amount of business is considerable, and includes many sales on Continental account. It would be still larger but) for an indisposition on the part of some of the dealers to enter into fresh operations. Consols as well as the New Three per Cents., and the Throe per Cents. Reduced have declined about It per cent. F. reign stocks have been forced fur sale, and the fall in many of them is severe. For instance, Italian Bonds of 1861 have 'given way to the extent of nearly 4 per cent. The reduction in British rail ways ranges from 1 to 2 per cent. Attention is . directed to preparations for the monthly settle ment in Consols on Wednesday. The supply of money in the discount market is again larger, in anticipation of the payment of the dividends to-morrow, and there is an in creased willingness to take the best three months bills at 2; per cent., or below the Bank ;Xi ttttt m.
