*willing Intelligente. LE - 17114G o:tONDON.—huoAy. - . The publication of the Ceurewitch sad Cambridgeshire weights hail the effect of attracting a rather numerous attendance at the clubs to-day, and, as might be expected, speculators occupied • wide field, although the invest ments were in most cases limited. The Great Yorkshire Handicap, being the first in rotation, may be first alluded to. For this race Hest Lancashire, Seville, and Miss Harriette, were each supported at 10 to 1. There was no desire to hack Monitreas, but, on the contrary, a mani fest disposition to lay against her. For the Si. Leger the triunes. of Hermit was unmistakeably demonstrated, 55 to 40 being taken freely, then 50 to 40, and finally 100 to 90 ; Achievement's position was somewhat puzzling, from 7 to 4 she at oue time retrograded to S to 2 but Übe afterwards rallied slightly, and found friends at 200 to 90 ; but there Gould not be a doubt that, looking at everything that took ' place, Achievement's status was anything but reassuring. Vauban had an improving look, 100 to S being taken end wanted, while 1 to 4 was asked in vain about him for a pl.xe. The only other backed was Fervacques, 500 to 20 being booked, and the same price was immediately offered. As regards the Cewirevnteb, Blinkhoelie was decidedly first favourite, at 25 to I taken, next to whom came Armourer, who would have been supported at to 1, but 27, to I was the highest price offered. Sportsman and Usurper occupied the next beet places, for no more than I,ola i to :f0 was offered about each, mob by • response to accept 40 to 1 in either instance. Then commenced the 50's to I, and I,ooo's to 15, particulars of which need not be &tailed here, as the several items are recorded below. It may, however, be mentioned in passing, that an offer was made to accept 1,000 to 10 about Mr. lirayley's and T. Dawson's lot, and that 35 hones were offered against the field for ;M., being • response to take 40 horAes for that amount. The closing quotations were as follows: nREAT YORKAII V t..

As we anticipated, the sport on the concluding day of this meeting was greatly superior to that of Thursday, the fields generally heirs g large and the racing good. The weather was brilliantly fine, although the morning pre saged a stormy day, and the company was equally as large and influential so on the opening day. Racing commenced et one o'clock with the Stand Plate, and concluded at half. past four with the Culham Stakes, and notwithstanding the large fields excellent time was kept, thanks to the efficient management of the executive. Fill details of the running are appended : THE STAND PLATE of 50 soya., for all ages ; winners extra. About half a mile. Mr. Mllllngton's Bar., by Prime Nlnlster—Candlewlrk, 6 )ra, NO. IMb (11.

As usual, Queen of Trumps caused a delay at the post by her fractiousness, but when the flag fell Zeta and the Texan. filly, tide by side, made play, Queen of Trumps and Dick Turpin being most prominent of the others. In this order they ran to the enclosure. while Blordan, on the Texans filly, challenged Mara ; hut the latter, admirably ridden by H. Clark, won very cleverly by a neck. A similar distance in rear of the second came Dick Turpin, Goodfellow being fourth, Herennianus fifth, Valeria sixth, and Lute next. Queen of Trumps, who was pulled up immediately she was beaten, finished in ad...nce of the others, widely scattered. Tux Nunari.r PLarg of 70 sows., for 2.yr-olds ; winners extra.

Bedivivna, with Manton, Triana, Belle Satirise, Magnolia, and Dunoon jumped off in one of the breaks away, and the jockeys, labouring tinder the misapprehension that it was • start, raced home, Redivivus passing the post first, a length and a half in advance, and the others in the order named. As may be imagined, after this " public trial" the betting underwent a peat change. " • Betting at the close : 6to 4 on Redivirtut, 5 to 1 egst Vertigern, 8 to 1 apt Herennianus, and 100 to 8 agst Triana. The above mishap caused a delay of more than half en hour, but the moment Mr. M'Cleorge again took the field of horses in charge, he succeeded in despatching them on very even terms. Belle &nesse was the first to show in advance, followed by Herennianus, Redi v ivu s , Triana, and The ariner, and they ran thus to the turn, where Rene Sausage was beaten, and Lord Westmorland's colt lost his place by slipping, but Kenyon soon righted him, and went on in pursuit of the favourite and Trier's, who were now in front. The finish was very unint :rest ing, as Redivivus won in a canter by two lengths from Triana, who was three lengths in advance of Herenuienue Toy was a bad fourth, Laird of Scotland fifth, Magnolia sixth. mid Menton next, the Austerlitz filly, Courtier, and The Mariner being last.

The sport brought to a close on the concluding day of this meeting wan of an interesting character. In point of attendance there was a considerable falling off observable, hut this was attributable to the unsettled state of the weather, the clouds in the morning foreboding rain, which fell at intervals during the afternoon ' • indeed, three of the races were run in almost blinding showers. Although the weights for the two groat autumn handi caps, which were published yesterday, were freely can. vaned, no one discovered anything sufficientl7 well in to lead to speculation ; consequently not a single bet on either of the great Newmarket races was recorded. Bet ting on the St. Leger, too, was almost a dead letter, as, beyond Achievement's being backed for a trifling amount at 7 to 4, and 100 to 7 being laid five times against Vauban, there was nothing doing. The issues to-day were not no favourable to backers as yesterday. when all the favourites, with one exception, won. The most notable turn up wax the defeat of Goodwood, for whomtheGnineas bad been looked upon almost as great a certainty u they were for Eland last year. it was a rare opportunity hr plunging, and that it was taken advantage of was appa rent by the fact of 7 to 1 being laid on the son of Rata plan and Amanda with avidity. The race was a close one; and although Butler rode with great determination, and tried all he knew, he was cleverly defeated by Assiut,. boine. The other races will be found fully described below.

No change occurred until again entering the straight, when Good wood took up the running, the others having taken closer order, Aseineboine, however, still being in the rear. Pass ing the stand for the second time, Pauline was beaten, and Assineboine immediately ran into the third place, the second being occupied by the Rupert's dam colt. Three quarters of a mile from home Young Lord retired from the quarters of Assineboine, who immediately beaded the Rupert's dam colt, and went en in pursuit of the favou rite, whom he gradually overhauled, and at the half-dis tance the pair were level. Despite the most strenuous exertions of Butler on the favourite, he was unable to shake Axsineboine off, and sustained a clear neck defeat. A couple of lengths divided the second and third, Young Lord was fourth, beaten off, and Pauline pulled up and walked in. LATEST BETTING ON THE COURSE. ST.

THE REFORM LEAOCE AND THE APPROACHING BANQUET.—At a meeting of the Working Men's Asso ciation Committee, last evening, the secretary reported the receipt of a letter from the council of the Reform League declining to co-operate in the file, on the ground that, u the Reform Bill had been carried through their exertions, any celebration of its passing ought to have been initiated by them. The reading of the letter was received with much laughter, and a dismission ensued, in which the League council was severely handled. THE ABYSB/NIAN EXPEDITION.—In Liverpool besterday the Admiralty o ffi cials were more than us ua lly risk in getting the transports for the Abyssinian expedi tion already engaged fitted for sea. Several other vessels are under survey. The Constantinople telegram is looked upon in Liverpool as a stockbroker's manonivre. THE PEACE CONGRESS AND THE REFORM LEM:WM—The Council of the Reform League have pared the following resolution :—" That Messrs. W. Cramer and G. Odger, who will attend the Peace Congress to be held in the city of Geneva on Monday next, are hereby charged with the mission of conveying to such congress the hopes and expectations which the gathering together of the re presentatives of the peoples in the interests of peace has rained in the council of the Reform League ; and further to express the fervent desire of this council that the deli berations of the congress may result in the development of • new era of prosperity and happiness for the peoples, and ultimately lead to the establishment of universal peace. To which end, we, in the name of the thousands of our coun trymen belonging to the Reform League, extend to the proles, through their representatives in coogress aseeni bled, the right hand of fellowship, hoping for cordial rem procity and future united action." TRADES OUTRAGES COMMISSION. ALLNCMC'ER, FRIDAY. • The Commissioners took their seats soon after 11 o'clock. The proceedings are beginning to attract mush attention, and the court was well filled to-day. George Halme, sworn.—By Mr. Pickering—ls • brick maker, aged 13, livingat Stockport, and working for Charles Marsh:ad. Had been a member of the Stockport Brick makers' Union, and had been treasurer for three months. Had paid money and was on the council in 1864. There was a meeting and a talk about Simpeon's affair in the summer of 1864. There were Holland, Brown, Singleton, Cheetharn, Bailey, and Slater there. Simpson would employ no union men, and an attack was determined upon. A resolution to that effect was passed, and about 13!. was to be given for the job. Himself, Garner. Holland, Slater, and Jackson were employed to do it. They watched • week or two for an opportunity, and then went on • dark night, between 11 and 12 o'clock. In the brickcroft there was Platt, the watchman, and • dog in the cabin, and another dog in the kennel. Garner and Holland had single-barrelled guns, and witness carried the naphtha. Garner and Holland went up to the cabin, and he heard the watchman about several times. They disposed of the dog by turning the kennel upon him. Never heard the men with the gone either shout or speak. They did not threaten the watchman if be came out. Never heard them fire their guns. There were about 1,000 bricks knocked down. Witness helped to do that. Saw the naphtha poured on the shed and set fire to. It was lighted by means of matches. None of the shots he heard fired were from their men. The watchman fired seven or eight times. It was with a revolver. Would swear be did not hear the report of a gun, and that neither Holland nor Garner fired. They took the guns to shoot the dogs. They were paid 10/. for the job. Remembered Wild's case. There was no meeting about it at the Pack Horse, but the meeting about that was in • brick-yard. It was on the 2nd of August, and George Bailey warned him of the meeting, and was present along with Brown, Slater, Sin gleton, and others. They came to a resolution at that meeting that Wild should be beaten. He could hear all that passed, and all the others present must have heard. Slater was the man to carry that out, and it was agreed to pay 14/. Was at the meeting before Thorniley's attack, and 101. or 12/. was to be paid for that. He and Slater and Kay and Potts were present at that. He communicated with Kay before that. They destroyed all the bricks they could. Slater paid on that occasion, and witness had his share. Had had to do with no other affairs than that. Had not assisted in thrashing any man. These were the only cases he had heard of which were brought before the union. Only knew of Simpson'* ease Wild's case, and Thorniley's cue being brought before the meetings. They met for other purposes than these. Did not know of any case at Didebury or Levensbulme. Slater generally paid for these cases, and not the treasurer. Knew of no other outrage determined on in hie presence. Mr. John Simpson said he was s master brickmaker at Stockport Moor, was not a member of the union. In 1864 had a dispute with the union, and before that in 1863. He had a dispute in 18410. He had • burner named George Bailey at Heaton-moor, and Bailey told the union tode stroy all the bricks. He wished me to give up the yard. I bad complained that he did not kiln the bricks properly, and I attempted to discharge him. There was a meeting, and I was to try him again. There were 100 men at the meeting. If be did not do his work after they said they would discharge him. He did not do his work properly, and the union sent another man. I was not allowed to take a man of my own. They said there was only one burner out of employ. That was Tomlinson, who ceme to me. Soon after that they fined a 'moulder 57., and because he did not pay they said I must. I refused, and the men went out a fortnight. They then demanded 30/. or 401. for wages and the fine before they would come back, and I would not pay. I then tried for eight or nine weeks to get non-union men to burn the bricks, but could not succeed. I I asked a stone-breaker who bad been a burner, but be said he dared not, though he would have got five or six times the wages. At last I got the moulder who bad been fined to do it. lie was afraid at first, and I had to stop up with him. I left Heaton, and took a field at Stockport Moor in 1863, but the men said they could not work till the fines were paid. On the Bth May, 1863, or early on the 9th, I was awakened, and told all the bricks in the yard were destroyed. On going there, I found about 25,000 totally spoiled. About RC damage was done to the trucks and 151. to the material. They cut the strines of the barrows with taws and the wheels off. We had suspicions of two or three men, and told the polio*. I bad a watchman in 1864 named Platt. On the 17th June the yard was attacked, and the watchman came and told me in tLe morning there had been an attack and that the sheds were on fire. About 1,000 bricks were destroyed, and the shed. The watch man's window was blown out. I examined the cabin and found the glass blown inside. I found some slight marks of shot on the walls at the angle of the window, and some I small sparrow shots on the mantel shelf. I found a large quantity of wadding, partly burnt, close to the cabin, which showed that guns were fired very near it. I never had any sale for my bricks eince,and the union men followed after my cart and watched so that I could not get bricks for building. The union pay the bricksetters not to set bricks from my craft. Had never been threatened, but one of my late men passing me one night panted to his own breast, and said that I should have a settler there. Peter Platt, examined by Mr. Chance—l am watchman to Mr. Simpson. I bad a cabin in the yard, and on the 17th June, 1864, I and my son were in it. We had three dogs, one at the aide of the cabin, and one at the end, and one inside the cabin. Late at night I was sitting in the cabin with a gun and a revolver with six barrels. all loaded with ball • the gun was loaded with pellets. The dog was fi rst dis turbed, and I opened the door, when a man struck at me and told me to go in again. I saw the shadows of two men. I went into the cabin again and closed the door. One of the men then put his gun-barrel through the window and fired into the place. I fired back with the revolver. They then went back to the ken nel, which they had upset, and I went out and fired at them, and they took away down the road, I th en saw men breaking down the walls of brick and fired at them, and they madeoff. I then saw the slisdow of mensetting the sheds on fire. I crept down by the walls and fired, and the men ran away. I saw seven men altogether, three knock ing the green walls down, and two setting fire to the sheds. I then ran and called up my master. I found two bottles, and there was same naphtha left in one. I fired the revolver three times, and the gun once. The men who attacked the place only fired once. By Mr. Pickering—Saw only two men at the cabin ; could not see their guns ; it was very dark ; kept his gun and revolver always charged ; it was from fear of outrages. By Mr. Barstow—Showed the shot marks on the wall to the police. William Slater recalled. By Mr. Pickering—Went last evening to the Packhorse Hotel, and gave Ratcliffe • box to bring to court. All the books wore in it, except one, the cashbook, they did not like to be brought here, and • minute book, which had been destroyed. Should think the minute book would contain minutes of all the quar terly meetings and council meeting as far back as IMO. The minute book would not have • minute of the meeting held in the field. What was there in the book you did not want us to see ?—Did not know, except that they might have some bother about the molders if they any the names of the men, and because there were resolutions against masters they did not wish to be seen. There would be no entries of the money paid for the attacks on different 'places. He knew no reason why he took the book produced (the cash book) away, except that things were in they did not wish to be seen. A good deal of money had been paid ►way, and they did not like it to he known. After his exami nation on Wednesday. Singleton ►nd other members of the council came to him, and it was agreed to take away the book. It was because there were entries about sundry expenses which they did not like to be seen. (Pointed out in the book, "sundry expenses, 2/.," and another 1/. 15a.) Had never said all these entries were paid for outrages. Some of them were moneys paid to his wife while he wee in prison. Had no doubt most of the money was paid for outrages. If M. was drawn from the bank about the time he was apprehended, it ought to ap pear in that book. The meeting on Wednesday lasted shout half an hour, and it was agreed to draw 5/. amongst them for their expenses, ke. By Mr. Chance—The books were open to any of the members. The entry of 30/. was very like John Jackson's handwriting. It was in 180;2. Had seen th►t and the item of 10 guineas since his imprisonment, but never before. Could never bear what they were for. On his oath had never heard Joseph Brown or any one else say what the 10/. was for. By Mr. Picke ri ng—His wife received 12s. Gd. a wee k while he was in gaol, and Cheetham's wife 7s. Gd. The difference wsa because he hart two children. Joseph Brown recalled—He was secretary in 1864. Wu not present at the meeting on Wednesday. The entries in the cash-book produced, up to the sth June, were in his handwriting, and again on June 26th , and all through August and September. He entered at the direction of the treasurer. If 151. was paid for an outrage, it would appear in that book in a lump sum. He supposed if money was 'd and not entered there, it would be ma naged by false entries. There was an entry in the bank book of 501. drawn out, but did not know what it was for. No doubt part was paid for these outrages. There was an entry of 501 . on the 17th of August, 1867. That would be paid away for various pur poses. They separated the money under different heads, such as " sundries," that it might not be known what the money was taken for. (Laughter.) The law expenses of the society were joined with the money paid for out rages under the head of " sundry expenses," so that nobody would know. An entry in the cash-book " to A.A.A., 301.," was in John Jackson's hand, and no doubt ' that money was for outrages, also the entry of ten guineas to " A certain party." Wftnesa adopted a different plan ; ineteadof entering it in that way he concealed the pay ment otherwise. Witness had written the following to James Ray st Manchester :—" There is a man named Schofield and his two eons working near the Stockport railway station, at a place where there is a strike of our bricklayers on account of the amalgamation between them and our society. I am in formed there is an execution out against Schofield ; please to inquire, and if so, give information. It will be the means of taking him away." Schofield was out of the way for debt, and the letter was written because be was using Simpson's bricks. The masters were continually upon them to see what mesas could be used to compel Simpson to pay as much for his bricks as they did; and the object of the letter was to prevent Simpson getting labour. Witness wrote according to instructions. Remembered outrages upon a brickmaker named Brimelow at Portwood, eight or nine years ago ; upon the property of Thomas Clayton, at Catley, four or Eve years ago; and on the property of Samuel Wilkinson and others, at Jinuibury, seven or eight years ago. Believed they were all committed by members of the Stockport union. There is a rule at Manchester that bricks made out of the Manchester district are not to be sold at Manchester, but there is no such rule at Stockport, so that/Manchester made bricks may be sold at Stockport. Compensation was paid for the outrage at Levenshuhne, because it was believed to have been done by Manchester met in consequence of the dispute with the Stockport society. When shy outrage is done under such circum stances the Stockport society guarantees a payment of two-thirds of the damage. Remembered an outrage com mitted on the property of a brickmaker named Thornley— he believed more than 10 years ago—at Brainhall. The court then adjourned till morning. had to maintain himself. He had written to the owner for his wages, and payment was refused. Mr. Paget said he would help the crew if he could. Neither ship nor owner was here. The applicant must go to Sunderland, and sue the owner there. Mr. Hyne said he had not the means of reaching Sunder land. Mr. Paget said the British consul had thoughtproper to stop the ship, and *end home the captain, mate, and mew. He bad investigated the cage fully, and was satisfied Crickmore was labouring under a delusion, and that he bad not been wounded by Captain Orwen, the master of the Copse, at all. Mr. Hyne—Yes be did, sir. He made two attempts in the night•tims to murder him, and out his throat on the first occasion. Mr. Paget—Yes, he impressed you with the same belief as himself. He was undoubtedly insane; he stabbed him self. I took great pains with the case, and I am satisfied with the captain's innocence. Mr. Hyoe—There was no one in the cabin on either occasion but the captain and Crickmors. I saw that Israeli. Mr. Paget—He impressed you with the same delusion as himself. I cannot help you at all. Mr. Hyne—There was no complaint against me. The consul sent me to London, and I ought to have my wages. There are the poor men here starring. Mr. Paget—l cannot help you. The owner is out of my jurisdiction, and the ship is not here. t ato intelitionm CHANCERY CHAMBERS.—Serf. 6. (Before Mr. Edwards, Chief Clerk.) There were 110 applications this day before :he chief clerk in carious public companies sad Chancery suite "proper." THE LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOVIR RATLWAT T. THE IMPERIAL CREDIT COMPANY. In this ease, in which it was stated there were 28 de fendants, application was made on the part of one for time to answer. The answer would extend to 200 sheets, and to some thousands of folios. — The Chief askeclsTliat time was required. The Solicitor's Clerk—A month. Chief Clerk—Nonsense. You can do it before. The clerk intimated that there was a " difficulty" at this time of the year to get the documents prepared. On the part of the plaintiffs, such a length of time was opposed, and it was said that fraud was alleged in the Mlle. The Chief Clerk thought two weeks' further time was sufficient, and he made an order to that effect. Mr. Edwards (who has had all the vacation business) will be relieved on the ZUth inst. by Mr. Buckley. JUDGES' CHAMBERS.—Serr. 6. (Before Chief Justice BovilL) His Lordship again attended as " long vacation" judge, and disposed of a number of summoning. In an application to review the Master's taxation of costs a point arose of some importance. Soma lengthy documents bad been espied for counsel, and the item exceeded 100/. The documents were not considered " sufficient." Another item was struck out of the bill of costs and now the application was that the same might be allowed. His Lordship allowed the sum for copies to counsel which would increase the bill to upwards of 1001. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr. Serjeant Dowling, Deputy-Assistant Judge.) Jowl)h Thomas Gunn was indicted for unlawfully as saulting Thomas Mott, ► police-constable belonging to the metropolitan police force, in the execution of his duty. Mr. Cooper prosecuted ; Mr. Montagu Williams de fended the prisoner, who surrendered in discharge of his bail. Thomas Mott said—l am a police-constable, No. 345 K, and at about 2 o'clock in the morning of the 25th of July I was on duty in Ashwell-road, Bow-road, and there I saw two females. I turned m' lamp upon them, and the light fell upon the prisoners face as he came along with a female. He came up to me and struck me on the mouth, and afterwards called me by a variety of filthy and offensive names. I asked him what he did that for, and he said because I was a thief, repeating some other vulgar names. I told him that I should take him into custody for assaulting me. He proceeded as far as the front of Aberdeen-terrace, Globe-road, where be put his foot on the iron railings, tried to throw me down, and knocked off my helmet. He also called out " Police !" and " Murder!" upon which two volunteers, one a ser geant and the other a corporal, came running up and as sisted me in conveying the prisoner to the station-house. I was several yards from the prisoner when my light fell on him. Cross-examined—l only threw my light once on the pri soner's face. I did not know the prisoner. I did not lay hold of the prisoner and push him against a wall till be hit me twice and knocked off my helmet. I was talking to a female, as the woman asked me where she could ob tain a lodging. I did not ask two volunteers at the station-house to swear that I was assaulted. They did not tell me that they would not say what was untrue. I did not ask the volunteers to look at my mouth and see how it was swollen. James Taylor, police-sergeant, 51 K, said I was at the Bow station when police•constable 345 K came there and charged the prisoner with assaulting him. The wife of the prisoner, who was in the station-house, said that constable 345 drew his truncheon, and was about to strike her husband, but she prevented him. I asked the constable if he drew his truncheon, and ho said no, and the volunteer sergeant said he had seen no unnecessary violence, nor had he seen the assault. A girl named Nichols was brought in, and she said she was standing talking to the police-constable, asking him if he could tell her where to get a lodging, when she saw him turn his light on, and the prisoner, who was there, turned and struck the constable. The prisoner then asked the con stable if he did not call his wife a —, and the constable said he never said anything until be was struck. Joseph Goodson, polies-constable 727 K, corroborated this evidence. Mr. M. Williams then addressed the jury for the pri soner and contended that he had been very ruthlessly treated by the policeman, who had twice offensively turned his bull's-eye upon him and called his wife by a most offensive name. He was naturally incensed at such an epithet being applied to his wife, by whom he w e e accom panied, and if he had committed any offence the police man was the Srst aggressor. Several witnesses were called for the defence, amongst them a sergeant and corporal of volunteers, who said they did not witness the assault, but bearing cries they ran up to the place, and when they got to the station-house the prisoner said it was not likely that be should nand quietly by when his wife had been called by the policeman a most offensive name. About a dozen witnesses were called who gave the pri. eoner a very high character as a quiet and inoffensive man, having known him for years as a licensed victualler. The Judge summed up the evidence, and, after consult. ing some time in the box, the jury expressed a desire to retire to consider their verdict. After being absent for nearly two hours they came into court, and the foreman said there was not the slightest probability of their agree ing, as they were nearly balanced in numbers. There were seven for an acquittal, and five for a verdict of guilty. The Judge said, if there was no likelihood of their agree ing, be had no other course to pursue than to discharge them without giving a verdict. The foreman said there was no chance whatever of their agreeing. . . The Jury were then discharged, and the prisoner was liberated on the same amount of bail as before taken— viz., himself in 401. and one surety in the sum of 201. THE POLICE COURTS. WESTMINSTER. George Rymer wee placed at the bar, charged with steal ing a gold watch. a quantity of jewellery, and a great number of other articled of considerable value ' the pro perty of Mr. Rogers, of 81, Vauxhall-bridge-read ; and George Barker, another young man, was charged with feloniously receiving part of the property, well knowing the same to have been stolen. _ _ Mr. Smyth, solicitor, opened the case for the prosecu tion, and afterwards called several witnesses in suppo r t o f the tatement. lle said the prisoner Rymer lodged in the house of Mr. Rogers up to the 30th ult. For some time past a great number of articles had been stolen, and on the 20th prosecutor, during Rymer's absence, entered the room he occupied, and there found pawnbrokers' tickets relating to part of the missing property. On the 25th ult. a box containing a great quantity of jewellery was broken open in Mr. Rogers's first-flour front room. Rymer was there that day, and the duplicates of part of the property were subsequently sent by bim to the pro secutor in an impudent letter, stating that when he (prose cutor) had overhauled his faings he had missed those tickets. Rymer, when apprehended, was found wearing one of the articles of the stolen jewellery, and was pos sessed of others. As against Barker, it was alleged that he was found in Rymer's room, where part of the stolen property was discovered ; that be had admitted pawning a gold watch; and that it could be shown he was found dealing with other part of the stolen property. Barker, who said that his family was very respectable, denied that he bad admitted pawning the watch, or that he had had any knowledge of the robbery or knew any thing about the property. Mr. Self. said it was a question of bail at present, Mr. Smyth did not object to Barker being bailed. Prisoners were remanded, bail in 1001. to be accepted for Barker. Mr. Henry Hyne, late chief mate of the ship Copse, applied to Mr. Paget for a summons against Mr. Henry Cross, shipowner, of No. 178, Chcater.road, Bishop weermouth, for refusing to pay him a balance of wages amounting to 32/. Ils. Mr. Hyne said that there were nine other seamen in the same predicament as himself. He joined the Copse at Plymouth on a voyage to Omra or any port in the Medi terranean, North America, West Indies, and back again to any port in Great Britain. Mr. Paget—At what wages! Applicant—At five guineas per month. The captain was put in irons by the crew for stabbing Henry Crick more, the cook and steward, on the 21st, and again on the 31st of July, at sea, a few hours' sail from Lisbon. The ship was taken into Lisbon, and detained there by the British consul, who sent the captain home a prisoner, and the crew home as witnesses. He had been here since the 17th of August, and Wiwi received a farthing wages. He HAMMERSMITH. Henry Barrett wu brought up on a warrant at the instance of Mr. Edmonds, the relieving offioer of Kensing- ton, for neglecting tomaintain his wife, who was an inmate of the workhouse. The prisoner, on being 'sled to plead, said he belonged to the band of the 2nd Life Guards, and he claimed an ex emption to the proceedings by the request of biz command ing officer. Re then referred the magistrate to the Mutiny Act. Mr. Edmonds informed the magistrate that the prisoner hel rn. d a private engagement u one of the band at Ilighbury Ba _ Mr. Myra= thought that would not matter if his en gagement with the crown exempted him from the liability of supporting his wife. Mr. Edmonds said the Marines were not exempted. The prisoner pointed out the difference in the case, and said the Marines were under the authority of the Admiralty, and not the War-office. Mr. Dayman looked at the Mutiny Act, and found that all attested soldiers could not be taken from the army for any claims which parish officers bad upon them for the maintenance of their wires. _ _ _ The prisoner said he was an attested soldier, and liable at any moment to be called to join his regiment. He had leave of absence from his commanding officer. Mr. Edmonds said be was surprised that a British soldier should take an advantage of a woman in that way. He sated the magistrate to adjourn the case to enable !kiln to communicate with the War-office. Mr. Dayman reftmed, as the law waa clear on the point. A reference was made to the marriage certificate, when the prisoner stated that be married his wife twice ; once without leave, and to save all trouble he obtained the con sent of hie commanding officer and warriod her again. Mr. Dayman then discharged the prisoner. THE DEATHS ON THE 17NDEROROUND RAILWAY. —The Medical Tinav and Gazette, in reference to this sub ject, says,—" If in the ' multitude of counsellors' who have addressed the public on the subject, acme had sug gested more sad complained less, it would have been better. However, the company is now taking active mea sures to satisfy the demands of hygiene, and have re quested Dr. Letheby, Dr. Whitmore (the medical officer of health of Marylebone), and Dr. Bachhoffner to make • thorough investigation, and report to them the results arrived at. In the meantime the company is doing all in its power to admit fresh air to the stations. At Baker street, and we believe also at other points, workmen have been engaged in large numbers in opening up channels for the temporary admission of pure air. We may soon hope for the report of the gentlemen selected by the company but awaiting it, we may remark that either or both of two schemes may be adopted for the ventilation of the line. By whit is known as the plenum method fresh air may be forced in, and by the vacuum mode the foul air may be withdrawn. Perhaps the beet plan would be a combine than of the two. Engines of • few horse power might:be employed to work rotatory fans for the propulsion of air into the stations,and the foul air shaft might be conceded with the furnace of the engine, and have by this means;ii very powerful outdraught produced. As types of the two schemes, we may select the Reform Club and the House of Commons—the former representing the plenum, and the latter the vacuum principle." THE LEAMINGTON SEQUESTRATION.—On Thursday • motion was heard before Vies-Chancellor Melina, at Decl aiming, to suspend the writ of sequestration issued against the local board of Leamington for contempt of court. The sequestration was enforced on the 20th of August, since which time the town property and monies have been in the bands of the official sequestrators. The contempt for which the writ was issued was in the board not having cleansed the bed of the river Lean], from their sewage outfall to its confluence with the Avon, as directed in the cane of " Heath v. Local Board." The order was made in March, 1866, but the board alleged that they have been unable to carry it out, in consequence of Lord Warwick and his tenants declining to allow them to enter upon his lordship's land for the purpose. It was shown that this difficulty had been removed, that a contract had been entered into by the board for cleansing the bed of the river, and the work had been commenced. The Vice-Chancellor remarked during the progress of the case that he really did not know what towns were to do with their sewage, and he could imagine that the inhabitants of Leaminiton were nearly driven mad by these proceedings. He was not satisfied with the plaintiff's conduct in not having acted upon the writ of sequestration, which was granted in January last, until the 2nd of August, when the writ was issued. and then the notices of sequestration were not served until the 20th of August, the very day that the court of Sir William Page Wood was adjourned for the long vacation. He, therefore, should suspend the injunc tion until the 7th of November next, and direct the board to be placed in precisely the same position as they were on the Ist of August, before the writ of sequeetration was issued, but should direct them to enter into an under taking to prosecute the work of cleansing the river with ' all due diligence. An order was made to that effect, and thus the local board have recovered possession of the town funds until the 7th of November, by which time the works will be completed and the contempt purged. AN INCIDENT AT THE BANE OF ENGLAND. Information has been received at the chief office of the City police of the following occurrence at the Bank of England, which bin since been ascertained to have been the result of a forgery committed by a clerk connected with one of the public companies in the City, who has absconded. A few days ago a respectable young man presented himself at the exchange counter at the Bank of England and ten dered five 100/. Rank of England notes for change. The clerk, taking up the notes, inquired " How will you have it " All in gold," was the answer. " What name!" inquired the clerk. The party gave a name, and the clerk had no sooner turned over the leaves of the Post-office Directory to ascertain if the name was correct than the party took to his heels and ran out of the bank, leaving the five notes in the possession of the clerk, and the man has not since been heard of. The matter was entrusted to the police, who have elicited that the notes were the pro- duce of a forged cheque. The party implicated is stated to be the registrar of a public company in the neighbour heel of Lombard-street. A belief has been entertained that other forgeries have been committed by the delin quent, but the company have thoroughly examined all receipts that have passed through the party's hands, and find this is the only case. ItiVAL MENAGERIES.—An amusing scene took place in Chelmsford High-street on Monday morning. For some days past the town had been placarded with gigantic illustrated bills announcing that • well-known menagerie would exhibit, and these were speedily followed by the placards of an opposition menagerie, which the public were informed would exhibit at the same time. A grand struggle took place on the entry of the rival esta blishments into the town, things being planned so that when one procession was on its way it woe met by the other coming up the town. A " dead lock " took place with two of the large vans, tho sun blinds in front of two tradesmen's shops being swept away in the confusion. The rival managers, one of them • ticotchman, and the other an Irishman, met on Pout face to face, and a bitter war of words ensued, while the lions and tigers and other beasts in the various caravans roared and bellowed de fiantly, as though eager to espouse their masters' cause. It was a most amusing scene, and happily the two proces sions at last managed to pass each other without any serious consequences. THE Blouse. —The grouse season has very nearly come to an end, or at any rate to • standstill, and much earlier than usual this season. The weather from the 12th of August up to a recent date has been most favourable for the bills, but the scarcity of grouse in very many dis. tricts has materially shortened the time usually devoted by sportsmen to mouse shooting. The disease, we regret to state, still holds on its oourse, and in some distr icts seems to have increased rather than diminished during the past fortnight. We are informed that on the Strath. ellen moors the grouse disease still lingers in many places, and what is worse that it is steadily spreading to other moors which until very recently were quite exenipt from its attacks. On she Cloys moor dead and dying grouse are to be seen every day, "very few of the birds killed had the glossy plumage and general appearance of healthy birds." From Perthshire the aocounts received are quit's' saddening. Lord Cairns and another gun killed some 280 head of hares on Glenquaich in the end of laxt week ; hut most sportsmen who are yet in the district are either fishing, or doing next to nothing. The heather was late this season, but is now in full bloom.—Land and Water. The Bristol and Exeter Railway directors are offering a five per cent. preference stock amounting to 219,0001. The offer, in the first instance, is to pres en t shareholders. and the stock will be allotted early in October.

In some cases the decline has been Id. per lb. since last week upon cloth, but not so considerable upon yarn. In yarns the business has been exceedingly limited. CORE.—Citin.usrour, SET. f,.—The weather during the week has been showery, which has retarded harvest operations in the later districts.

Les 5 1,906 1,541 SAD BOAT ACCIDENT AT Moirreosa.—About two o'clock on Tuesday morning a small fishing-boat arrived in the river, having three men and • boy ou board. Two of the men, named Bremner, having friends in Ferry den, landed, leaving one man and a boy, his son, iu the boat, which was to lie at wiener till the others returned. At daybreak the two men who had landed could see no trace of the boat, and shortly thereafter, on the tide re ceding, the body of the boy was discovered at the Chain bridge, and the boat was found water-logged up the sands at Maryton. The river was dragged for the body of the man, but up to a late hour no trace of it was got, and it is conjectured that it has been carried out to sea. The un fortunate man, who was named William Spankie, was about forty years of age ; be leaves a widow and three children. His son, Andrew Spankie, was about ten years of age. Nothing is known as to how the accident occurred, but it is supposed that both father and son had fallen asleep, and that the beat had dragged its anchor unperceived, and the mast coming in contact with the bridge had upset the boat.—Dundee Advertiaer.
