OUR REPRESENTATIVE SYSTEM BEWDLEY AND STOUHPORT—(coterthoun). Behind the town of Smedley, as we meatimed in the first put of this atticle, hes the tact of country 'mown in that quarter as " the Forest' " The Fewest "is Crown property. " Oh, oh," we hear some reader ejaculate, in - tones of justifiable suspicion, another !Jokey job, perhaps t " Not quite so bad es that, friend reader, not quite so bad as the' ; although there are hides ocncerning Etewdley that bear the stamp or office mark of Woods and Forests mann meat. The Forest cf Bewdley is let on lease to Sir Thomas Eduard Winetngton. It is let to tim at a considerable rental; probably Sir Thome, in a pecuniary point of view, is no gainer by his !elm Bet to the repiesen tatim of Bewdlry " the Forest" is of the first import ance. It is all, or nearly ell, within the borough. It affords an opportunity of conferring little privileges on the voters—end particularly on the poorer vote's —which mast tall in the event of an election. Many a man in Bewdbiy is indebted for the main tenance of his horse or his cow to the Forest and the Crown lessee. fed , ed, there world be some difficulty in finding convenient pasturage at all in the vicinity, without mere/shin more or less on the rights which the Woods and Forests lease confers upon Str 760111&11 Edward Winalsgton. If you lumps to have at band the Appendix to the report of Lord Dancan's committee of 1848, and if you will open it at page 162, yea will find an entry autierniag this same lease. You may observe that Sir Thomas Winningtoa, Bart, is there meotioned es "the lessee of the manor of Bewdley, with divers lands, coppices, &e., goatskins 2,238 acres, at an annual rent of 2,4001., for twenty-nine years, from the 10th of October, 1841," and you will also observe that " the Treasury warrant anthnriekg this lease was granted sot the 21st of July as the year preceding.' Now about this entry t he re is the very remarkable aid unusual circumstance that the " Treasury war rant &Gambia( this law" was Mimed a year and three months before the date hose which the lease it self became effectual. if you look down the return of lames granted by the Woods and Forests, you will observe that this is a very rare occur rence. Usually, indeed, the department is so much in arrear with its beriness that years elapse bites the confirmatory warrants ere obtained. What, thee, was the dire necessity that impelled the Woods end 1' rests to grant, and the Treasury to authorise, the new lease of Bewdley manor an his than fifteen months before the expira tion of the old one ? _ _ Mark the dates. The year the lease expired was the ereatful year 1841. In July, 1840, where were the Whigs 1 1 Ix. In Cktober, 1841, where were the Whip P Our ! There was • mighty difference to Air Tawas Winniegton between July and October; all the difference, in fact, of lease or no lease. For there wee a neighbour of the hon. baronet who was in every way as anxious to have possession of this manor as he was. Lord Ward, as we have already mentioned, had become powered of Whitley. His lordship did not fail to see that Bewdley Forest was the key to Bewdley borough. He set his ener gies to work to obtain the new lease of the Forest from the Crown on the expiration of the old one. To Lord Ward, money was no object. He was repent to make a bidding out of all proportion to the value of the property. Sir Tomas Winnington saw the dander. His friends, the Whir, were in power—the Whigs, feeble and tottering, unpopular both in and out of dome, existing upon majorities of 2 and 3, needing all the support their friends could give them. Heaven only knew on what day their lease might ex pire! So Sir Thomas Wintuogton, before be left Loudon for the recess in 1840, applied the screw, and obtained a renewal of his own. Here we have a specimen of the price the senetsy pays for what is called " parliamentary supports— and a sample of the fuhioa in which goverment influence now-a-days is brought to bear on boroughs. We do not say for a moment that there was anything particularly wrong in this case u far, certainly, as it Thomas Winington was concerned, he only took proper care of his own interest, and small blame to him for doing tha`. But what would Sir Thomas ham said if the Whigabad gone out without renewing, amid the Tories had selected Lord Ward for their lessee, as they assuredly would hare done if they bad possessed the power ? Would not Sir Thomas have exclaimed against " the system r Aye, that he would ; se loudly as we, who are free from party-motives, ex claim against it now. • The Tories of 13:•wdley no sooner knew that the lease of the Forest was renewed, thin they set about endeavourieg to cook some other scheme for diminish. I ing the influence which appertained to the domain. A sharp practitioner, rho set his wits to work, soon found out • " flaw," and a flaw, too, of such nicety, that it has proved ever since a stumbling block, not only for revising barristers, but for the appellant jurisdiction—the Court of Common Pleas itself. Section 37 of the Boundaries Act enacts that no part of any parish detached from the main body of such pariah shill be taken to be included within it, boundaries for the purpose of conferring a right to vote, unless such detached part shall, prior to the paying of the ace, have termed part of the borough en which the franchise is to be exercised. Now it hammed that a part of the forest of Bewdley, called the " Far Femme' was a detached part of the parish in whicir the town of Bewdley is situated. At the ensuii g revisor, therefore, the Tories objected to all the voters in this Per FOrt et, in number fifteen, and all of them, of coarse, tenants of the Crown lessee. It was obvious that to strike off these votes would, in the then state of parties at Bewdley, have turned the wale against the liberals. Greet effortr were therefore necessary to be made in order to re tain them. Sir Thomas Wilde, then representing Worcester, was consulted on the subject, and he gave his opinion how the objection should be met. And the seats answer which was thereupon set up moot certainly deserves to be recorded. It was argued that prier to the passing of the Re form Bill, Bewdley, for parliamentary purpo se s, vir tually had no boundary. The right of election, it will be remembered, was then vested in 12 capital burgesses, and others whom they might be pleased to elect to act with them. There was no limitation as to the residence either of the capital or other bur g:sees. They might live exactly where they liked. And it was therefore argued that this case virtually came within the proviso which exempted (rem the operation of the clause such detached parts of parishes as formed part of the borough under the old system. The revising barrister—a tory—decided against the validity o: the voter. The question was then carried upon appeal to the Court of Common Flees, and the judges of the Court of Common Pita were equally divided—two aid two—in their interpretation of the law. Under there circumstances, the decision of the revising barrister took effect. It was upon a register from which these votes were struck off that the two parties in Bewdley were to fight the battle at the F enend election of 1847. The Winnicgtons were obviously at a disadvantage. They had ano her obstacle to contend with. A keg tenure of his seat had nude Sir Thomas Winnington careless of his popularity in Bewdley. He had in no way conciliated—mach less sourted—the constituency. His votes, moreover, bad not gone far enough for the independent men of Stourport ; so that when the contest approached, his supporters were lukewarm, whilst his opponents were resolate, zealous, and combined. Drrd Ward now struck a blow for Bewdl(y, as he did in 1841, his success would have been cer tain. Bat the divisions which had occurred amongst the Tories tended in a great measure to neutralise opposition from this formidable quarter. Lord Ward, voting with Sir Robert Peel, could not well oppore a moderate Whig member like Sir Thomas Winnicg ton. Besides, there was another influence in Bewd ley which acted u a check upon the Tory party, and is which a discreet politician, looking at the game upon the board, saw an inflame requiring to be consulted. We have spoken of Mr. Roberto, the patron and amber for the borough prior to the Reform Bill. This gent'emas, a man of large possession, had settled down in Bewdley as a quiet country gentleman, spending his fortune in the pleas, coursing the neigh bourhood with his greyhounds, keeping a well supplied table for the beet gentry of the county, avAdiog politics as much as possible, especially local politics, and obtaining, deservedly, the respect and eats= dell his neighbours. Mr. Robert 's trendship with the %mine= has already been adverted to. Prior to the election of which we are about to speak, the Dowager Lady Winaington thought it her duty to consult him about the prospects of ha. as.. lft Roberta would sot give Sir Thomas Winnington his vote; but he was induced to pledge himself, for self and friends, to preserve a strict neutrality. Mr. Roberts, directly and indirectly, exercises 6fieen votes. It was precisely too number struck off the register by the decision in he "Far Forest" ease, so that parties were re clined very mush to w here they were before—that is, to an equality. The Tories appear to have bad some difficulty in selecting a proper oisdidate. At length a Mr. Ire land was introduced to them. Mr. Ireland was a Suffolk landowner who had parliamentary aspire tiaras, and who Lad goes about seeking introduction to a mat among the low agents who are always busy previous to a general election. Mr. Ireland came down to Bowdley with his "agent," a man of no repute. It was obvious from the first that he came I resolved to win, no matter by what means. His canvass was conducted most unscrupulously; and, in feet, from first to last, no election, here or elsewhere, ever was conducted in a more unprincipled and wicked manner than this election for the town of %wag. At the poll Mr. Ireland was returned by a majo rity of 2, the numbers being—for Ireland, 160; far' Wanniegton, 168. It was impossible that such an election could stand: probably some of Mr. Ireland's friends never hoped or expected that it would. Petitions and counter-petitions were presented. They alleged, on both side*, the most open and notorious bribery and treating, the abduction and hocussing of voters, the introduction of mobs—in short, every species of corrupt electioneering practice. •- ' • • (it, le continued.)

It is expected that a conditional c;rdie - tiill be ob tained, at the openiog of term, for a mandamus to compel the Castlewellsn magistrates to take informa tics. against their brother Orangemen for the Magher amayo =MCI% Socha step as this follows, in fact, as a necessary result, os Mr. /3enrick's report. Oovernmeat have ales resolved as adopting vigorous measures to guard against disturbances in the North on the approaching 6th of November. A couple of regiments have already been despatched thither, and instead of her Majesty% troops being marshalled with the Orangemen to shoot down the " papists," and her Majesty's justices of the peace giving the word of command for that pooise, the prepared party demon stration will be absolutely prohibited. Every one here, except the most violent partisans on one side, is rejoiced that the eyes of the Irish government have at length been opened on the subject of those party outrages. The Ineumbered Fotates Commissioners adjourned their public sittings on Saturday until Friday, the 9th of November, Baron Richards having very pro perly hinted that their secretary's bag could not be expected to serve all the purposes of a Rolls-office to the court—that, in fact, they should have some place to sit and call them over. It is ludicrous enough to see the hon. commissioners in their present position; and those who have been all along prophesying the failure of the commission rejoice at any buogling that may attend its proceeding. at the outset; but it is understood that tho Board of Work, is now preparing chambers and a court for them in Henrietta-street. In addition to tke four properties I mentioned on Saturday, three others are now before the court, lamely, those of W.A. W. Kerr and Mary Ann Kerr, on the petition of Henry Faster; of T. O'Callaghan, on his own petition ; and of O'Grady Rase, on the petition of David Henderson. On Saturday, before the rising of the court, Mesas. D. and F. Fitzgerald obtained a conditional order for the sale of Mr. John O'Connell's estate, at the expiration of ten day. after service of the ardor, admit cause be shown to the contrary. This estate has been in litigation for the last three years, the parties endeavouring to have a sale. 'Me claim of Mr. John Reynolds, M.P., to the citizenship still remains in jevairdy. It is rumoured that the Lord Mayor, and one of the two revising barristers (Mr. Mayer) are opposed to the claim—a hint from the Lord Mayor that Mr. Reynolds would not improve his position by pressing for a decision being construed in that sense.

I see no reason to change that opinion. Indeed, the state of Ireland, since the severance of our connexion, hue pressed more forcibly on me the necessity of reforms in that coun try, local in character.

THE EXPRESS,' TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 30, 1849. DRAMA. vzcsu*. A little fame, ge your Tiger," was produced hero last night, a..d with very equivocal SUMO. The incidents are neither novel nor amusing, the whole weight of the piece being upon the shoulders of a mischief-making tiger, named Bob, who is employed by a young collegian, and who undertakes to entri es'e his master from a difficulty which besets him, owing to his attachment for the fair sex. The col legian havi^g returned home, his father (a wealthy baronet), finds some reason to believe that his conduct is not mare exemplary than that of collegian& in gene ral, and he resolves to ascertain whether his suspicions are well founded. With this view he puts a variety of quest;ons to the aforementioned Bob, who mistakes him for the butler of the establishment, and who informs him that his son is a gambler, and that be squanders his money in borne, dogs, and other fashionable luxuries. In ceder to carry out his master's intention to the fullest extent, the eccentric tiger promises to represent his character in inch a light to a young lady who admires him, that she shall dismiss him from her mind, and allow him to follow his favourite pursuits uninterruptedly. He then declares that he is not a tiger, but a captain in disguise; and a scene occurs in which this curious specimen of " household furniture" falls upon his knees before the lady whom the collegian has been anxious to avoid, and protests that he is more deserv ing of her love than his unworthy rival. This is the climax of the piece, and tho tiger being compelled to jump out of window in order to save himself from the wrath of the offended baronet, pretends that he is seriously wounded. The baronet thereupon desires his nephew to " discharge his tiger," and be promises to do so, if he should again sin against propriety. It would be impossible to construct from materials such as these a piece with any pretensions to novelty. but there certainly was room for a little more humour in the dialogue. The; tiger was personated by Mr. Oxberry, who exerted himself as well as an imperfect recollection of his part enabled him, bat he did not succeed in redeeming the faults of the author. Mr. Granby played the Baron >t, and gave sufficient proof that he could bare done much better things with a better part. The piece was given out for repetition ; but the " Ayes " did not have it all their own way. B. V. harriers, this day, Dirleombe-till; Saturday, Star utinster-common—st half-put li.

William Harris, 3s, clerk, was indicted for feloniously uttering a 61. forged note of the Bank of Eogland, with intent to datraud t h e governor and ormpany of that oorpo ratioo. _ _ . _ . Mr. Clarkson sad Sir J. Bayley prosecuted, and Mr. Bal lamina and Mr. Haddl stone defended the prisoner. This trial occupied the court the whoie day, bat the facts lay in a very moll compass, and the nature of the case will be better understood in the form of a narrative than if the evidence were to be given in detail. It appeared that on the 21st of August a person, alleged to be the prisoner, accosted • girl of the town named, Mary Anne Bond, in the Hinpland•road, and after some oonversation be accom panied her to her lodging in Essex-street, is that neighbour , hood, where he sent out for some liquor, and gave a fol. note in payment. The liquor and change were obtained at a publielouse is the same street, and the moment the man obtained the money he made some excuse and left the house, and the note soon afterwards was discovered to be a forgery. In this case the girl stated that she had known the prisoner before, and she swore positively to his identity, and two other persons in the house confirmed her testimony , and it appeared that the witness Bond, upon seeing the pr isoner in the same neighbourhood a few days afterwards, immediately recognised him as the man who had given her the forged note, and gave him into custody. In order to show the guilty knowledge of the prisoner, evi dence was adduced to prove that upoa four other occasions, and under exactly similar circumstances, he had passed other forged notes, and in every case the parties swore pod. lively to the identity of the prisoner, and, according to the evidence of the Bank inspector, the whole of the forged notes were struck from the same plate. It appeared that the prisoner, when he was apprehended, asserted that he was innossat, end said that, with regard to one of the days that was mentioned as that on which one forged note had been uttered, he could show that he was at an other plea. The witnesses were all crow-examined at considerable length by Mr. Ballantine, but they persisted in decluing their positive belief that the prisoner was the man who uttered the forged notes. Mr. Ballantine, on behalf of the prisoner, eoateaded that there had been • mistake as to his identity. He said that he was • highly respectable man, who had for many years been in the service of • most respectable fi rm ia Throgmorton-street, and on this account alone, he said, would be a very unlikely person to com mit such an offence. Hie employer had so high an opinion of his integrity that he was willing to become bail for bin to any amount before the magistrate, and, not withstanding what had occurred, he would be ready again to take him into his service, if he was discharged on the pre sent occasion. He reminded the jury that the ease for the prosecution merely rested upon the evidence of prostitutes and brothel keepers, whose evidence ought, at all events, to be regarded with groat suspicion ; and he said, that to strengthen the doubt which this would reasonably occasion, he should produce evidence to show that, at all events so for as regarded one or two of the transactions, they were ear tainly mistaken as to the prisoner being the man who had passed the notes. Several highly respectable witnesses were then examined, who made out a moat satisfactory alibi with regard to the lith and the 21st August, on both of which days the prisoner was alleged to have passed a forged note in the way described. The evidence appeared so conclusive that Mr. Clarkson rose and said that, after the testimony that had been addend, he did not think that on the part of the Bank of Bogland he ought to proceed with the case any further. At the same time he must remark that he was rather surprised that these witnesses had not been produced before the magistrate. Mr. Ballantine said they were in attendance, bat as the Bank brought forward a great many asses, and the evi dence only applied to two of them, it was thought advisable not to produce the evidence until the trial. Mr. Justice Mauls cemented that he did not see any ground for supposing that the witnesses for the prosecution had committed perjury. It was evident there had been a mistake. Th. jury then returned a verdict of Not Guilty. There were four other indictments against the prisontr, but they were of amuse not proceeded with. THIRD COURT.—YEEITUDAT. Samna Ma. Bouncy. PERJURY. Ca berme Keine., 28, wilier, was indi ,ted for wilful and corrupt perjury before Mr. Walesby, one of the justices of the peace for Middlesex. The prisoner pleaded guilty. Mr. BalLatins, who appeared for the prosecution, said that t►e charge against the prisoner was of an rstraordinai7 kind, and bad been instituted by the churchwardens and guardians of the parish of St. Jams is, Westminster, to deter others from attempting impositions of a similar character. The prisoner had presented herself at the workhouse, and asked relief for three children, which she alleged she was unable longer to support, she being the aunt. The result was that the pariah relieved the children, and subsequently removed them, upon her oath. Suspicious, however, baring been aroused, an enquiry was set on foot, and it then tuned out that the children were her own, and that she was living under circumsiances of a disreputable nature, and was not in the state of poverty she represented. She was sentenced to six months' imprisonment. ASSAULTS AT Sub. J. Proton 26, sailer, was in iicted for unlawfully assault ing William M artin en ' the high sear Mr. Powell prosecuted and Mr. O'Brien defended. The prosecutor Martin, who is • harmless looking lad, stated that he was a seam, non board the balk Atlantic. and that ca the 6ch of last March whilst lying the prisoner who was mate came up on the deck, and sail he had been sleeping on his watch ; proucur4 told him he hind not, when the prisoner immediately took up a hanspike fr MI the windlass and struck I.im on the arm with such force that the witness immediately fell senseless. The pri 1100Or said, "Damn you, you young rascal, I've caught you, have I? " Tie violence of the blow caused prosecutor to fall with much force sgaiemt a chain cable, by which his face became very much bruised and injured. Previously to that, whilst at Gibraltar, prisoner told him to fill a cirere, end because be did not do it quick enough he took the bucket, a canvas one, from him, and beat him about the head with great force, and hist him until he fell down and much injured himself by the fall. Upon another occasion, whet. he did not get the water quick enough, prisoner took him by the lett ear, end swung him by that with great violence on to the deck. Upon the occa sion of one fall from the pziioner's violence, prosecutor got his note broken. The other evidence given was in corroboration of the above, and also went to show that other acts of brutality had been practised on the poor lad. When the vessel came into deck the prisoner refused to let the lad c.coe ashore, but, in consequence of some information that had been given, police constable 78 of the Tha mes police went on board and there naked to see the lad, who came up and then made the same statement he now did, when the constable asked why he had not ooms ashore and made his c.mplaint to a magistrate. He said the prisoner had given him orders not to leave the ship, saying it was the captain's command. The constable immediately found that Chic was an untruth, took the led ashore, and h.d him examined by a surgeon, who found that his aria hadbeen broken at some period of tis life, and that he had bet his hearing from the injury done to his ear. The evidence upon the point of the broken arm not being clear, The jury returned a verdict of Guiliy upon the two other . count& Then was another Indictment against the primmer for Waking and beating Jahn Brennan, another lad on board the Atlantis. To this the prisoner pleaded guilty. The Court ordered tee prisoner to be imprisoned Uwe week!, in addition to that which he hu already suffered. CHARGE OP CONSPIRACY. William Charles Hi!chi*, 23, clerk, and Bet Vomits Henry Mayers, were indicted for feloniously catspiring together to defraud Robert Peacock Moog and others of various goods and chattels. _ _ Mr. Payne prosecuted, and Mr. Pare and Mr. Mldshon defended. _ _ It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner Mayer, having taken a place at Ila, Wellington-street, Strand, celled, upon the prosecutor sad ordered a quantity of thine+, which were sent to his lodgines, 17, 13 tuthampton-street. Upon obtaining the offices in Wellington-street, circulars were issued announcing the opening of the Liberal Loan and Discount Society, and a painter sent for to do up the plate. The whole firm oocsisted of the two prisoner., but it would seem that the painter having some suspicion that all was not right from the fact of never having seen any one else but the two prisoners, and bane" heard much talk about the firm, the c onsequence was that he refused to finish the job he had commtneed, and some in formation baring reached the ears of the prosecutor in this ease, inquiry was made ' and it was fouled that the prisoner Mayer had run away from his lodgings in Southampton street, and had given up the offices, and sent back the key by the Panels Delivery Company. The result was that Trim ' the City Afficer, took them b o th i n t o cus t o dy, an d on the road to the police-court Hitchin said to Mayer, " It is your tongue that has brought this on me." The defence was. that there was no evidence of acting in concert, and that however improper their condnct might have been, still it would not slaw ort a charge of conepiracy. The jury acquitted the prisoners. FRAUDS ox PAWNBROKERS. lone Siseekrit, 40, widow, was indicted r conspiring by false pretenses to obtain from John W. Webb and others various mum of snoiii a —Mr. Robinson prosecuted. The learned counsel stated the fallowing case to the jury —The ',kisser went en the 29sh of August to the shop of • Mr. Clarke, a pawnbroker, in Long Acre, and there offe red what to all appearance seemed a rldring for a pledge, ask ing 21. oa it. Mr. Watts totted the ring, and finding it to be only a thin plating of geld noon a metal body, and filled in with pewter, told her so, and also told her that if she at. tempted to pledge it anywhere else she would be liable to a prosecution. Re then sent a man outside of the shop to follow and watch her movements, which he did, and the moment she came out he taw her joined by a man who was waiting outside, and they proceeded to four other pawn brokers, into each of which the woman went, whilst the man waited outside. The pawnbroker's assistant having in each instals., been into the shop before her, each of the rings which she had obtained fresh from the man were tested, and she was warned that they were not gold. The prisoner having been to the shop of the prowcutor on a previousocca sloe, and wain coming to attempt to pawn one of the rings, she was given into custody. She said she had received the ring from her husband ; but this turned out to be false, and Worn information obtained by the police it was ascertained that she formed one of a gang of notorious "duffers" who have been for years imposing upon the ,awnbroking trade with spurious jewellery, and in some enstanees she had obtained as much as U. on the rings, which intrinsically were not worth 2s. 6i. The prisoner, who wu undefended, did tot offer any defence. The Jury found tier Guilty, and she was untanned to one year's imprisonment and hard labour. OBTAININO MONIT UNDRIIt FALSI Pi Robert Ma ratore , an attorney's clerk, was Indicted for ob taining b y _ false pretences the sum of 1.1. es. from M. John George Winstone. Mr. M'Mahon prosecuted, and Mr. Prendergast defended. The evidence of the witnesses went to prove that the pro seen or, who is a boot-maker living in the Waterloo-road. bad the misfortune to key, a eon get into the hands of the police, lit connection with two other men, for stealing a glass. The prisoner is one of those pews that may always be found hanging about our courts, and who, under the guise of being solicitors' clerks, manage to swindle the friends of those who get into trouble out of money to conduct the defences of the prisoners. The prosecutor's son being committed for trial at the lest month's unions at Clerkenwell, a person named Butcher mentioned the prisoner to the prosecutor as • man who would be able to undertake the defence, and the tank was that prosecutor had a conversation with him, and he said the fee for counsel would be If. 31. ed., which with hie own fee made up the sum mentioned in the indictment. This was paid upon the strength of prisoner stating himself to be a abater. The prosecutor having occasion to leave town was surprised on his return to find that his son had been tried and convicted, and that not any counsel or at torney had =eyed in the matter. All that had been done was that the prisoner had mentioned to Mr. Mellor's clerk that he should want to retain him. _ Several witnesses were called, who gave him a previous good character. The jury found him Guilty, but recommended him to me Thet. wy prosecutor raid he understood that he was in great poverty, being a widower left with a large family ; and he wished to recommend him to mercy on that account. Mr. Bullock then sentenced him to be imprisoned three weeks in Newgate. FINE ARTS. Paurrixo mom PRINTS. Moot persona are aware at beset of the existent* of the Anastatie printing proem, by which engravings, printed pages, Re., ore t ran. fern d to zinc ur stone, and thus faccimiles are very readily produced. The process condos esseatielly of the application of certain bodies which possess the property of softening the ink upon the paper; after which it is "set off" upon the stone or zinc. Our attention haa been directed to a process by wh eh mele es, Tenho are obtained by means which are curiously op , posed to those employed in the Ansetastie process. We (the Athetteseet) are Wormed by the inventor, Mr. Pettitt, of Birmingham, that be prepares the paper on which is lb. engraving that he desires to copy with some material which actually hardens the printing ink—but which at the same time musts any of the white parts of the perm from receiving ink. The print beleg in this state, ia subjected to an ink ing process by which every line of the engraving, lithograph or wood-cut receives a fresh layer of ink—end from which a faithful copy may now be obtained. We are told that as many as 60 impreesiene have been taken from one print with out fajuring the original. If thoroughly successful, this inven tion of Mr. Petite appears to promisemany advantages. The inventor, who is engaged in the decoration of papier mache materials, proposes to employ hie discovery for producing on glass copies of flae works of art, widish he afterwards paints and oraameate in a way peculiarly his own. We have as en tome of these works: the effect is very singular, and not un plearing. Considered u the Are efforts in a new line of dreorative art, they ]re of eassiduable i remise: and we think that if Mr. Pattitt would direct his attention to per. bete; hie proem so as to 'noble him to copy with fidelity first class Use 'agreeing., he might obtain the power of in teethed/1g specimens far lees objectionable in point of taste then the unnaturally-coloured paintings which now decorate the papier oketd manufactures of our country. INJORY TO • PICTURE IN TUE VERNON GALLERY. —We sr* sorry to hear of a misfortune which has befallen come of the pictures the property of the nation in Trafalgar. square. This pieta'', the work of Mr. Hart, the Royal dietician, forms part of the Vernon Collection—and was in coarse of being engraved for publication when the accident (if that be the proper same)esearred. It appease that—contrary to the directions ender which enpaven are permitted to week in this gallery—the engraver in this instance, in his T o L ci tte ch ned bb labour by pressing the threads his frame spinet the picture intrusted to him ; by w premiere the materials employed in the painting have become disintegrated—we are given to under stand, beyond the chance of recovery. As we have said, this is a very serious matter,—and summons time whom it may concern to look to the risks run by the national We know not the name of the engraver who ti c a tu t r a abused the privilege conceded to him; but it is clear that he mast not again be admitted, on any pretence, to poetise his art wither the wells of the National Gallery —nor elsewhere to any dealing with the art-property of the nation.—Athessesess.

Ur. Horton, purer R.N., has been appointed to the Saturn, 74, guard ship at this pert, in succession to Mr. Hanes, placed upon half pay. Mr. Bar tinbeook, boatswain, has also succeeded Mr. Bowler in the same ship. Lieut.

The dockyard battalions having completed the rummer dril's, the arms and accoutrements of the force have been stored in the arsenal. Some delay has spin occurred in the erection of the martello towers at the dock yard, through the want of a supply of proper materials. Lnut..Colonel Victor is in charge of the ordnance depart ment of the district. SPORTING. TATTERSALL'S-MONDAY. Notwithstanding a eonsidivable portion of the afternoon was taken up in settling accounts for the last day's racing at Newmarket, to veral hones were backed for the Derby', the cbiet outlay being on Bolingbroke, at 10 and 11 to 1, and on Deicoon at 25 and 22 to 1. A very lugs amount was invested on the latter: it is rumoured that he has been sold, but to whom did not transpire. The Italian. Sweetheart, and Voltigenr, were also in good force. Steeplechase betting, if we may judge from the commencement, is not likely to be so general as it was last season : very few books have been opened as yet.

Henry and Mar garet Joyce, man and wife, carryiog on the business of an ironmonger at No. 20, Wi!stead-street, Somers town, were charted by Henry Herrick, of No. 6, E lead-street, New ington, an officer attached to the Pilate Court, with havixg ass tulted and reei.ted him whilst in the execution of his duty. The complainant stated that on the 24th October he bad been assaulted by the prisoners while attempting to take their son into custody on a warrant issued by. the Palace Court. Several persona, however, who witnessed the affair swore that the officer was the Heat assailant, and that he had been guilty of unprovoked violence to the persons whom he °barged. Mr. Tyrwhitt (to the complainant and his assistant) — Well, gentlemen, after such evidence for the defence, you may indict at the seadons if you think proper, but I shall dismiss the case. WORSHIP-STREET. OBTAINING GOOD BUNDiiit Bayley was charged with having obtained a quanti-y of manufactured goods, of the value of 201. from Mr. James Comics, a carrier, in Lukeetreet, Finsbury. The proseeu'or stated, that in the month of May last the prisoner, with whom he had previously had some dealings to • trifling extent, and who at that time -d on business in Shoreditcb, called at his warehouse and purchased goods to the remount above stated, in payment for which he pro posed to give him a bill at three months' dae, accepted by his mother-in-law, whom he represented to be • widow lady residing at Daimon, and possessed cf considerable freehold property in Yorkshire. Ha required time to consider the proposition, and haying in the Interim ascertained that the mother in law really lived where he had stated, and was reputed to be a person of respectability, he executed the order upon the terms he had offered, and paid away the bill in course of bueineu; but upon tne expiration of the term for which it was drawn, it was returned to him dishonoured, and he immediately proceeded to the hone of the acceptor, to whom he exhibited the bill, and on asking if the acceptance was in her handwriting, she returned an evasive answer, and told him site would see the prisoner, and make it all right in a few days. Upon calling on her again, however, at the end of that period, she intimated that it was not her intention to take it up, as she was a married woman, and not legally liable for the amount, and at the same time called forward a resnectable-looking person, wan stated that she was his wife, and that tney had been married for several years. The ?risoner bad in the meantime re linquened his business and removed into another ne igh boerhood, where he was followed by the witness, who de manded payment of the bill, which he promised to do in a few days; but he failed to fuifil his engagement, and wit. nem therefore obtained the asestscce of Evans, an active detective officer of the division, who ultimately took him into custody. Mr. Joni, Alford, a muter carpenter and builder in Holly stre..t, Devon, proved his marriage to the mother-In-law of the prisoner, and oetensinle acceptor of the bill, at Stepney Couch, about eight years since, and said that if she had ever signed her name to any 1)31 or other instrument it was entirely without his knowledge or authority. The accept ance in question was handed to the witness, who stated that he did net believe it to he in the handwriting of his wife, but on inspecting • second bill, which it was alleged that the prisoner had passed to another tradesman, he recognised the indorsement as her sbeature. Mr. Aeley, who attended for the defence, deftly cross. examined the witnesses, but without eliciting any , hii g favourable to hie client, and the prisoner war remanded for a we k, red the magivrate consented to accept substantial hail for his future appearance. MARYLEBONE. STEALING CIGARS, &c.—Henry Spencer, a boy, 13 year* of age, was charged with robbery at the shop of Mr. Cottin, 1, Albany-street, Regent's-park. On Saturday evening lut, between six and seven o'clock, the prisoner end anothi r boy were observed walking to and Ira in front of the premises for some time, and soon after they went away 141 b. of tobacco and 41b. of cigars were missed from the window, a hand hating been introduced through a pane of glans which was br 'ken ; the prisoner cline to the shop a second time, emboldened by the success attending the first attempt, and upon his being laid hold of two cigars were fiiund in his hand. A week ago prosecutor was robbed in a similar way to thi. amount of nearly 41. The prisoner, who said that he had taken nothing more than the two cigars, was ordered to be sent to hard labour in the House of Correction for six weeks, audduringthatperiod to be once privately whipped. SOUTHWARK. ROBBERY EY A LlTY;;;l;;;LcfiliOPEAN.—Akaander Wilson, a respectable-looking young man, was charged with robbing his employer, Mr. Brooks, the extensive linen draper, 105 and 106, High-street, Southwark. Mr. Brooks stated that on Saturday evening, about eiliht o'clock, one of hie young men informed him that he had seen the prisoner secrete about his person a silk handker chief. He made ao observation about it at the time, but when the prisoner quitted the shop to get his supper he ealied him into his parlour and told him of his suspicions. He replied that it was all false ; but when the ether young MIA was called into the rcom he pulled two silk haadker chiefs from his pocket. Oae was black and the other c.loured. Prosecutor informed the magistrate that be had nearly fifty shopmen infl.his employ, and there were more robberies committed by them than females wbo pretended Ito be cis-tomer,. There was a chance of detecting the latter, 1 but the facility his shopmen had of raining access to his pro perty almost prevented the possibility of detecting them. The prisoner had been a fortnight in his employ, but he could not say to what extent he bad robbed him. The prisoner was committed to Newgate for trial. HAMMERSMITH. SIIIIOTJB FRACtS —Mr. George Bennett, landlord of the Swan publichouse, Broadway, Idsmmersulitt, was charged with having violently assaulted Mr. John Fraser Walker, a solicitor. . . Mr. Winer stated that on the 21st inst., about half-past ten o'clock at night, he stopped at defendant's house, and bad some brandy and water; but defendant charging him is. 6d. more than be had by right to pay, a dispute arose, which he (complainant) endeavoured to terminate by psy ing the extra demand, but defendant, without any provoca tion, struck him a violent blow on the cheek. Complainant having previously hurt his arm, then said, " I have but one arm, and cannot resent it ; but I will punish you for this." Defendant then got a large stick, and struck complainant with it on his disabled arm. There was then a struggle fur the stick, which at length was taken from defendant, who then fetched a gun, which he said was loaded, and threat ened so shoot them with it. Defendant pointed the gun at them, anti they left the house for self-preservation, William Norman and Charles Weaner two omnibus con decors, corroborated the complainant's testimony. Several other witnesses having been examined, Mr. Paynter said that it was clear, from the evidence of four witnesses, that an assault had been committed. He could not attach much weight to the evidence of the house keeper, because eke distinctly swore that no assault what ever had taken place. He also considered the taking down the gun as the most serious part of the affair. Defendant had been in this inert more than onoe before, and it was well known that at all times, sober or otherwise, he was a man 'f a most excitable nature ; and a gun, in the kande of a man of that kind, might lead to serious consequences. He therefore did not know whether he was justified in inflicting It. than the full penalty, but, taking into consideration that comphinant had been drinking a little, and might have given more provocation than had been stated, he should fine defen dant 31. and costs. Defendant immediately pall the amount, and the cont. plainint requested that the costs might be put into the pooe-box. TER LITE WICTIIIIPTEDecon Although Mr. Idonkhouse, sen., still continues prv g et :"" favourably towards convalescence, it is not conaiar,d wt IA will have attained sufficient strength to be able us stt .,,, at the court to give his evidence in the case for ► t lis t s tb --- ',.. weeks. Toe accused will, therefore, continue to b e ‘stk i• remanded until that time. / PUBLIC BALES. By Mr. C. F. SYYRIL, at the Mart—Two leasegoldh,„...
