IRELAND. MAT 17. No order has yet been received about the state pri soner,. A meeting was held yesterday at Hadley s hotel for the purpose of getting no a petition that the sentence of transportation might be commuted. Mr. Martin Burke was the principal speaker at it. Two years since, or even later, the news from Canada would have produced intense excitement here, but I never saw news of 83 much impmtanoe received with so much indifference as yesterday's intelligence. A Urge army is not wanted here to repress outbreaks; the population is perfectly tamed by the mimry of the time. Nearly 5001. was realised by a charity bazaar yes terday at the Rotunda. The Countess of Clarendon purchased several pounds' worth. An important meeting was held at Castlebar, for the purpose of extending a line of railway to Mayo. The high sheriff wss in the chair, surrounded by several persons of influence. Mr. Keogh's reply to Mr. Roebuck found several admirers here, where pungent personality is reckoned a great merit in a speech. The member for Athlone esama considerable reputation at the Irish bar for humour and powers of repartee. He arrived from London yesterday. Mr. Butt's pamphlet on " The Rate in Aid " is looked on by many as an electioneering manifesto. The learned gentleman was recently elected town councillor for the Coeds ward, in which the p7pnlar interest predominates. lie was chosen without op• position, and it is said the object of his friends was to feel his way as a candidate for the representation of Dublin at the next election, when it is thought he would receive support from opposite interests. MUSIC. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. The performance of "Don Giovanni" last evening was in a style of splendour and completeness unex ampled in this country. The opera was admirably east; Mozart's inimitable instrumentation called into action the full powers of Costes superb orchestra ; and no pains or cost was spared . in giving the ut most beauty and the most imposing magnificence to the scenic effects. • Grisi, in her pest part of Donna Anna, was as great as ever. Her acting was full of energy and passion, and we never heard her sang with treater expression and beauty. Tam burini is the best Don Giovanni on the stage ; combining the reckless libertine and the high-bra Spanish noble with a felicity which very few of the representatives of this character have been able to roach. Madame Peridani, who has began a series of six " farewell performances," had her old part of Zerlina, which no other performer of our day has been able to make so charming. She received an enthu siastic welcome; and the audience, by the vehemence of their applause during the piece, seemed to express, not merely the delight given by her performance, but the regret to part so soon with one whom they have so long and so greatly admired. Marini made an exceedingly good Leporello. He had not the genial humour of Lablethe ; but his reading of the character was intelligent, consistent, an d e ff e ctive. Mdlle. Corbari is probably the best re presentative of Moira that we have ever had. This part—which Mozart evidently meant to be a very prominent one, for he has thrown into it some of the finest music in the opera—is generally sacri fi ced by being committed to incompetent hands ; but Corbari gave it dignity and importance : and sang the music with power and passion . Her ' Bon tradita" was ad mirable. Taglielico was excellent in the Commas datore ; and Polonini, as ,Braeetto, acted and sang very ' agreeably. UNIVERSITY AND CLERICAL.

A bankrupt, seined Beadle, a publics& at Sydenham, whole debts were about 4001. or 6001., with an inconsiderable amount awns, having on his last examiaation given a very unsatisfactory amount of a sum of 1901., part of a sum of 9501. whisk he admitted himself to have received from the sale of property, a subdivision court was held, pursuant to appointment, for the further examination of the bankrupt, sad his committal if necessary. Mr. Bagley, for the assignees, examined the bankrupt as follows Oa the 7th of February net did you receive a sum of 9501. upon the sale of some freehold property? I the paper now handed to you the account you Mee furnished to your wignees of the manner in which you disposed of that sum of 9501. ? It is.—That paper imports that you paid 1901. to one Mr. W.

I lest it.—Can you give the court no information as to the dis poni of that sum ? I cannot.—Do you decline to amount in any manna for the 1901. ? I have no other account to givo.— Wee the receipt produced purporting to be a receipt for 1901. signed by Yearn, produced by you to aeoount for your dis posal of that property ? It wee. The evidence of Yearn, taken in the course of the ex amination, was to the effect that the signature to the receipt was in his handwriting, and that he had signed it at the pressing request of the bankrupt, who stated that it would do him a great service, although hs had never received any seamy from him, nor had any business transaction with him. Mr. Coannimioner Brans to the bankrupt. —bow, recol lect, bankrupt, yen are an old man. It is impossible any ene can believe a word you my. You stand in • very awful podtion. The bankrupt repeated his statement, and denied all knowledge of what hed become of the money. Mr. Commissioner Evans.—Then you will be committed to prison, fees which there will be no liberation during your life. The bankrupt mid it was Impossible for him to say where he bad lost the mosey. He had carried it in his pocket. It was in notes, and he had told his son of the loss after it occurred. This was the first time he had communicated the loss to say other person. After the commissioners bad consulted, Mr. Commimioner Beans said—Nobody living can believe your statement. Tom stand committed to prison.

This case, which was before the court on a former day and reported in our paper, was now argued on a question of jurisdiction. An application was made on the part of Sir Robert Prise, for an order on the provisional assignee to sell considerable property in the Olorangam Iron and Coal Works, under a vesting order on a creditor's petition made in 1842. Sir F. C. Knowles was a bankrupt Ave years after wards, and the point was whether the property remained in this court under the vesting order, or was vested In the Court of Bankruptcy under the fat. The case turned on the con struction of the 39 sec. ' 1 & 2 Vic., c. 110. Mr. Nichols appeared for Sir Robert Price ; Mr. &mood fer Sir F. C. Knowles ; and Mr. Begley, and Mr. Csarteen for the assignees in bankruptcy. The point was argued at some length, and the court took time to madder its judgment. Mr. Bargood said there was another point, if the court con sidered it pareseed jurisdiction ' and that was Sir Robert Price was not a creditor but a partner, and had no locus nandi to make the application. His Honour, who, on the former occasion, intimated his opinion that the jurisdiction ever the cam was gone from this court, said —Jew question of partnership could be discussed if neseseery.dgessat deferred. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.7YEBTmtDAY. ---- Boma Ma gllite•lff ADMIS AND • FULL Swat or IlmnersAi TILE ASSAULT ON TH3 133 C NT.IS LITAT TO TH3 ROYAL ACADE Richard Brow, a gentlemanly looking person, an artist by profession, surrendered to answer an indictment, charring Aim with having committed an assault noon Mr. John Prescott Knight, R.A. and Secretary to the Royal Academy. Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Bodkin for the delhadant. The defendant on being arraigned pleaded Pad% ganisalars of this cam have recently been given in oar Pam latalligencs. It will be remembered that the dattnienit ulna U the Royal Academy in reference to the by dm 1111111111 alum pictures be had sent in for 2 .11 4 11 embilitiors, sod that on seeing the secretary he Mir ua of some insulting epithet and struck him a violent blew with a stick, inflicting a savers contusion on the upper part of the forehead. The defendant banded in a written document, in which be stated that he could not deny that he committed a breach of the law and of the public pesos In assaulting Mr. Knight, but he urged that the offence was committed under peat provocation; and that when the nature of that prom inent was shown, he was confident that the contideratitn of the pert would be extended towards him. He then west on to declare most aoleaudy that a r il s hi was net to any way a premeditated one, and that it did not arise from say holing of resentment in consequence of the mina of the Royal Modesty having rejected the pictures be had sent in (as they had a perfect right to do) but feeling indignant a t a personally franking epithet applied to him by Idr. Knight, he unfortunately struck him. He had received a letter signed by Mr. Knight, which he could not understand, eo he called at the Rial Academy for some explanation. Accordingly, about sight o'clock on the evening of the 27th of lira, be went to the Academy, and, without consideration, asked to sea the , when the principal porter said that Mr. Knight ie wrrlinatr. He sent in sausage by the porter, and 'bin Mr. Knight, of whom he had no previous knowledge, appeared, be said—" Oh, I thought it was another person of your name with whom I had en altercation and a quarrel, but I am glad it is not so." He (defendant) then prodused ths circular he had received from Mr. Knight, and civilly asked its meaning. Mr. Knight said that it was the mug circular sent round by the council, and on his pressin for a further eaplanation, Mr. Knight kid that if he wanted any further information, as its terms were ambiguous, he must go into another room, pointing to one at the corner. He replied that the circular a his signature, and he con named him the proper person to apply to n for an explanation. Mr. Knight then said that be had nothing more to as and he (defendant) thereupon remarked " that as Mr. Knight was the secretary of the academy and its servant, he ought to be able to explain what was issued with hie signature." Upon that Mr. Knight took hold of the paper, throw it from Ida with great indignation, easing, "I am no somata of the academy, and you are a dirty scoundrel." At the same time he shook a black stick in his face, and was making to the doer, through which he had partly paned, when irritated at the epithet that Mr. Knight had applied to him, he raised his stick as quickly as he could, and struck hiss on the hat, but without, he would most positively assert, taking the thin end of the stick in his hand to strike with the heavy one ; in tact, he would not have had time to do so, as Mr. Knight would have got out of the room before the weapon was changed in his hand. The defendant then said that be was quite aware that Mr. Knight denied that be had used the epithet " mandrel," and that Mr. Knight, e ri the other hand, charged him with having applied it to him. He would not impute to so highly respectable a man as Mr. Knight that he would wilfully assert as true that which he knew to be false, but he would attribute to mistake the assertion he made before the magistrate. The imperfect rsoolisetica which Kr. Kai&l ssemsd to have of the matter was apparent from the trot, that he did not remember AIMITIM.

When the assault took place there was no one else in the TOM. and he felt quite certain that the porters, who before the megistrate pre evidence as to who first used the word "semen*el," had been mistaken in the voice, and by sound ohne they must have been guided. Under these eircum elnanes, and as he would not deliberately inflict any injury wera any person, be tested his ease on the judgment elthe aeon, trusting that he should receive its merciful con- Mr. Berjeant Adams directed Mr. Knight to be sworn, mod having been so, his lordship asked him pointedly on his math whether he used the epithet " scoundrel" to the de headant ? Mr. Knight positively denied it, and added that he Gond bred that the words need by the defendant to him were aillthy scoundrel." Mr. Clarkson said that the defendant's palliation was im puting to Mr. Knight that which was not true. Mr. Serpent Adams said he could see how it was. The defendant wee au artist, and having some favourite work he wished to get it into the exhibition. No doubt the defen dant thought it a grand thing—he did not insinuate that it was not—but people who did produce great works were sometimes subjected to slights in respect of them ; but be cause the council of the Royal Academy rejected the deist dent's pictures, that did not justify him in assaulting the secretary. What the defendant had now urged in mifta tion only aggravated the offense, and bad he evinced a proper spirit no doubt the Royal Academy would have been disposed to have the affair passed over leniently. Consider ing the defendant's position in sou sty, the court would not send his to a prison, but at the same time it felt bound to inflict such a fine as would mark the case as one demanding some enmity of punishment--the sentence was that the de fendant pay to the Queen a fine of 251., and that he enter into his own recognizance in 401., and give one surety in 201. to keep the peace for six months. The fine was immediately paid, and the required surety given, conwquenly the defendant was liberated. The case appeared to excite a deal of interest, and a num ber of gentlemen connected with the Royal Academy or in terested In the arts were present. POLICE.—YESTERDAY. DIARLBOROHHIUSTREBT. CHARGE OP ROBBERY.—Enema Harvey, a young women who had evidently sustained very serious injury, was charged with having stolen a gold watch and other articles from No. 8, Lower James-street, where she had recently lived AS servant. It was made known that the young woman, on gaining intelligence that the police were in search of her, and on seeing them enter the house where she had taken up her temporary residence, in Shire-lane, suddenly threw herself out of a two pair of stairs' window into the yard beneath. The prisoner, in consequence of the injury she bad sustained, was allowed a seat within the bar. Mr. Henry Newman said he lived at Nantes, is France. On Monday last he went with his wile to Windsor, and retuned about 6 o'clock in the afternoon. Before he set out on his journey he left a gold watch end chain in his room, end there were some stockings and other articles on the soli. When he returned at 6 o'clock the watch and several other articles of propetty were gone. The prisoner, who was servant in the holm. bad also disappeared. An assistant of Mr. Attenborough, pawnbroker, Fleet street, produced the watch, which had been pawned by a young woman who gave the name of Emma Foster. Police-constable Quarterman said, from information he received, he went to No. 4, Searle's-place, Fleet-street, and tried to get into a room on the second floor. Hearing a noise at the back of the house he went into the new and found the prisoner lying on the ground insensible. Witness procured a eab and caused her to be removed to the hospital. In defence the prisoner said she went to a raffle the ether evening and met a young man who went home with her to James's-plea, and after some conversation he induced her to take the watch. The young man stole the other things. Prisoner afterwards pawned the watch and gave the young man the money. The young man afterwards took her to the theatre, and she did not return to her place, as she was afraid she would be accused of the theft. The prisoner was removed to the House of Detention, Clerkenwell, until Saturday. PUBLIC BALES. MAY 17.—8 y Mr. Moons, at the Mart—Eight leassbold houses.
