Four boil ers B'. issrut CRIMINAL ruu (THIS DAY.) The e thethiga of the Central Criminal Court were ro omed this morning before the Bight Hon. the Lord Mayor, the Common Serjaant, Alderman Lusk, M.P., Alderman J. a thurrenoe, Mr. Alderman and Sheriff Gibbons, gr. Sheriff Plains, the under-sheriffs, Inc. The first edition of the calendar contains the manes of 3.47 pa mpers (118 males and 29 females), and there are e wer than three cases of murder to be disposed of, ca d 13 cases of feloniously wounding with intent to murder. There are also 21 cases of burglary, • very un wired number of cases of this description, particularly at the present period of the year. There are two case of w ee, but, the remainder of the cases would appear to be of the ordinary description. The session, however, from the character of the business, it likely to prove of some thnthened duration. The Common Serjeant, in charging the grand jury ex tamed his regret at the condition of the calendar, which he said not only contained a much larger number of pri K een than would have been expected considering the interval that bad elapsed since the last session, but a good many of the offences were of the most serious character, end four of these, involved the loss of human life, three of the charges being charges of wilful murder, and the other assuming the milder form of manslaughter. With refer ence to the charge of manslaughter, he said it appeared that the prisoner had the charge of • waggon and four bones, and that he was riding upon the shaft smoking a pipe, and while in this position the bind wheels of the waggon run against • perambulator that was standing by the side of the rued, threw out a child that was in it, and the wheel of the waggon passed over its head, and it was killed on the spot. It would be for the jury to say, under these circumstances, whether the prisoner was not guilty of culpable negligence by riding in the manner described, and if they should be satisfied of this fiat it would be their duty to return a true bill. In one of the cases of murder a woman named Mary Butcher wcharged with destroying two of her children * drowning them. The facts appeared to be sudisputed, and the suggestion that appeared le be raised upon the depositions was that at the time the set was committed the prisoner was not in • sound state of mind. The grand jury, however, had nothing whatever do with this defence, and if the facts were established to their satisfatlon it would be their duty to return a true all, and the condition of the prisoner's mind would be filly inquired into by the learned judge before whom the cue would be tried and the petty jury. Another charge of murder, against a man named Thomas Murphy, appeared to have arisen out of a drunken quarrel, which might probably reduce the crime to that of manslaughter, but in asmuch as in the eye of the law every homicide amounted to the crime of murder, if unexplained, it would be the duty of the grand jury to return • true bill for murder if the fact of the killing of the deceased by the prisoner was made out by the evidence. The last case of wilful murder in the Wender was a very serious one, and it was made *garnet a man named Jeffery, who was accused of the murder of his own son, • boy about seven years of age. It appeared, from the depositions that the child in ques- ' Den Iwo-living with its grandmother, and that the prisoner had promises' to supply money for its maintenance, but ' be had failed to do so, and on 71 night in July he took the child from the custody of the grandmother, under what appeared to be • frivolous excuse, and nothing more wee seen of it until it was found hanging in a cellar in St. Giles's, quite dead, with its hands tied behind it with a handkerchief. Nothing more N osed to have been heard of the prisoner until some considerable time afterwards, when be made his appearance at Halifax in Yorkshire, and he there made a statement to • police-constable which induced him to take him intocustody on the charge of murdering the child in question. There appeared to be no doubt that • murder had, in point of fact, been committed, and also that the prisoner was the last person with whom the child was seen, and that, as he had before stated, he had taken the child from the custody of its grandmother by • false and frivolous pretence. In addition to this there was also the important fact that it appeared that the hand kerchief with which the hands of the unfortunate child were tied was the property of the prisoner, and he could sot see that the grand jury would find any difficulty in coming to the conclusion that it would be their duty to End a true bill. the grand jury then retired, and the court proceeded to dispose of the business of the sessions. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) BOW-STREET. ♦ SERIOUS WISTAKE. Kai Weiss a German courier, was charged with &s -miting Ha nnah Dodwell, a respectable-looking middle spd woman. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Abs arns. The complainant stated that she was a midwife, and at about 11 o'clock at night was returning from attending a lady in childhed, when, as she was passing the Lowther-arcade, in the Strand, the prisoner, running at full speed, came ape her from behind, and struck her a terrible blow on tie head with a stick. Her head was cut open and bled profusely. She was taken to the Charing-cross Hospital, where her head was dressed, and the surgeon told her that if the blow bad fallen a trifle lower it might have killed her. Timothy O'Connor, police-constablo 111 F, stated that he was on duty in the Strand, and saw the prisoner running after the complainant, upon over taking whom he struck her with hie stick. He ti in ran across towards the entrance to tho Charing-cross Railway station. Witness followed and stopped him, and after placing him in the custody of one of the railway officers and another policeman, returned to the assistance of the complaisant. Finding that she was bleeding profusely, he took her to the hospital. She fainted on the way. After her head was dressed he, by hie bisector's directions, accompanied her in the direction of her lodgings in the neighbourhood of the Borough. In paling along the Strand she again became so faint as to te unable to proceed. At this time they were near the dee of one of the weekly newspapers, and a gentleman connected with the establishment inquired what was the matter. On being informed of the circumstances he advised Mama to pot the poor woman into a cab, and kindly paid the fare for her. Kr. Abrams said the prisoner was extremely sorry for shit had occurred, but he really was not actuated by any feeling of malice towards the complainant personally. A nman had attempted to rob him in the Haymarket, and belied pursued her, as he imagined, to the Strand. It appeared. however, that by some mistake he had lost her, sad followed the complainant instead. He was deeply My sad would be willing to make her any compensation is ins power. The complainant said she fully believed this statement sal expression of regret, and she did not wish to press the ere vindictively. Kr. Flowers said this was very well as regarded the cora- Plainantand the prisoner. But he (Mr. Flowers) could we allow it to be assumed that the prisoner was ft l l is the wrong because he bad struck the wrong woman. If this were the one who had robbed him, that would not justify him in striking her, "Vallcruel y with such violence. Abrams said the prisoner was fully aware of that, red was sensible of the impropriety of his conduct, even if Ibis bad been the woman he took her for. Kr. Flowers said, for the sake of the poxr woman, he solid allow en arrangement out of court ; but she must tridentand that she was entitled to a'subatantial compen mist for what she had suftered. , The parties then withdrew, and returned after a short mterval, when Mr. Abrams said he had satisfied the coin *just, who begged leave to withdraw the charge. kr. Flowers said he hoped this would be a warning to the prisoner,u pon whom he must again impress it, that he would have been no more justified in an assault upon the actual thief. nie prisoner was discharged. CLERKENWELL .. ROBITRIIT AND EXBRZZLEMIENT ETA CLERK ON rat MIDLAND RAILWAT. &hearer James Osborn, aged 23, who described himself IA a clerk and gave hie address at Glasgow, was charged Wore Mc. Barker with stealing and embezzling several tons of money received by him for and on account of his mployers, the Midland Railway Company, at their ration at St. Pancras. „The managin g c l er k t o th e so li c it ors of the company, Menses. end Marigold, appeared for the prosecution, sl said that, mhe should not be able to complete his are, he should have to ask for a remand.

The prisoner had never accounted to him for the money received from the weviowiwitnesa The prisoner, who treated the mat with the greatest indifference, said he had no questions to ask, nor had ha at present anything to say in his defence. Mr. Barker remanded the prisoner to the House of De tention and refused the prisoner's application that he might be admitted to bail. WORSHIP-STREET. FATHER AND CHILD.--CRUEL 1/0110111T., Sophia Isaacs, only 12 years of age, but looking older, was charged with stealing a purse containing 9f. 135., the fl ue o ra hof t, her own father, a fishmonger, living at 57, The prosecutor, who is blind, was greatly affected while in the witness-box. He said—My wife deserted me and the family two year. and a half since. At 10 o'clock last night I went to bed with my youngest son. and placed a purse containing this money beneath my pillow. Well, shortly afterwards I felt somebody fumbling about, and found it was her (the prisoner). She said that she was putting the clothes right about the boy, and almost directly afterwards left the room. She has been • very bad girl and robbed me before, that made me suspect her, and on searching I could not find my purse. The boy got up, and afterwards came back with the whole of the money—he had found her in the street, aocused her of having stolen it, and would not leave her until she bad given it up to him from her bosom. If he had not got it we should have bean ruined, for I saved it up to make purchases with, and I have a very large family. lam always in fear of her stealing, so de termined to give her in custody, hoping you would do something with her, air. Prisoner appeared quite callous, and when her younger brother detailed in corroboration what the father had stated of her being found in tha street, she looked on him threateningly. The magistrate told her she was • giulty, bad girl, who, young as she was, ev;dently knew how to be • protection to her blind father, and ought instead of robbing him. The observation, however, made no impression, and she was remanded, with • view of placing her in some re formatory. WARE LIEITB.-(THIS DAY.) Ora o'Clacc.

Robert Mason, a middle-aged man, was charged with assaulting his wife, who exhibited a very bad black eye, and walked lamely. The defendant also had a black eye : Complainant—My husband and me often has a " varia tion." He has been in a bad temper for a week, lays a bed, and won't work. I don't want to hurt him for this variation, but he knocked me about shocking, and I gave him no provocation. When we go out together we always drink, and are very comfortable. I went to a funeral yesterday, and when I came back he said nothing would satisfy him but my blood, and he would drink it. Mr. Selfe--Ah ! you go out drinking together.(Laughter.) Complainant—We hadn't been drinking yesterday. Mr. Selfe —And you had been to a funeral. Come, now, hau know you have been here before. What did you ve to drink yesterday ? Complainant—A little brandy and cloves. About two half-quarterna. He flew at me like a tiger, pat his hand upon my mouth, pinched my nose, and tried to strangle me. I bit him, and he cut my eye with a sharp dragging instrument, not with a blow. Mr. Selfe—Was that after you bit him! He was trying to draw yor teeth, perhaps. Complainant—Yea, it was after I bit him. Defendant—When she came from the funeral she flew at me like a wild beast, and ill-used me as you see. Complainant—Don't believe him. Look at my eye. Mr. Selfe—How did he get "an eye to match?" (Laughter.) Had he been to the funeral! Complainant—He had not. Mr. Belfe—l thought he might have been, as you are both "in mourning." (Much laughter.) Complainant—He ran his head against the door, and got his black eye. Mine was punched out. Mr. Selfe—He was trying to prevent your biting by drawing your teeth. (Much laughter.) A policeman proved that the complainant, although injured, was under the influence of liquor. Mr. Belie said he would not act upon the unsupported evidence of the wife, and adjourned the case for further testimony. LATEST SPORTING INTELLIGENCE (BT zuccriac TELEGRAPH.)

(THIS DAY.) The ordinary general meeting of shareholders was held this afternoon at the London Tavern; Mr. C. SEALE RAYNE in the chair. The report, of which we have already published an ab stract, was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN expressed regret at the unfavourable circumstances under which the meeting was held, but trusted that any discussion that might arise would be of a business-like character, free from personalities. The agent in Buenos Ayres was engaged in very delicate ne gotiations with the government there with regard to the guarantee, and he was anxious that nothing should be said on that occasion which would prejudice those negotiations, or which would assist a deferred preference share holder in a suit in Chancery, which he had instituted against the company. There bad been a loss upon the company's business during the year of 4,500/., but the board were of opinion that a very different result might be worked out in future. An efficient manager had been sent out, and some reduction of expenditure had already been effected, by diminishing the number of persons employed at the various stations, but shareholders must not be too sanguine of any great improvement in their position in the present year. The directors had no money in hand applicable to the purchase of coals and stores, and the probability, therefore, was that next year those items would show an in crease. The average earnings during the year had been 311. per mile per week, which for a foreign railway was a very good result ; anti the object of the share holders r o ust be to unite their efforts to make the re venue profitable to them. At present the company was only existing at the mercy of its creditors, who had exercised great forbearance. No doubt their difficulties were mainly doe tothe non-payment of the government guarantee, but that question he hoped would receive a satisfactory settlement. The question was whether in theirpresentposition it was worth whileby subscribing for the debentures to carry on the company, and in his opinion it was, for they had established their position in Buenos Ayres, there had been a steady increase in the receipts, while the expenditure was being gradually reduced, and they had the assurance of the minister of the Argentine republio here, that there was every intention on the part of the government to carry out to the letter the terms made with the com pany. They hid a fine property, which, if properly deve loped and managed, would prove remunerative to all con cerned, but to attain that position the first thing neces sary was unanimity among the shareholders. (Cheers.) He concluded by moving the adoption of the report. Sir JOHN Lass seconded the motion. Mr. LEvrsoN asked whether all the directors took the responsibility of the report and accounts. Mr. MORRIS (the solicitor) said that all acts of the board of directors were determined by a majority, and it was most irregular to require a statement of what took place in the board-room. (Hear, hear.) Mr. LEvirsoN alleged that the accounts were falae, and wanted to know who were the directors responsible for them. (Oh, oh! and interruption.) If such accounts were laid before the Governor of Buenos Ayres the governor would be justified in cancelling the guarantee. He was proceeding to comment upon the various items of the accounts when our report was despatched.

Our foreign supply consists of ;3,560 beasts, 7,510 sheep, 125 calves, and, 190 pigs. From Ireland there are 90 besets ; Norfolk and Suffolk, 40 ; and 2,040 from the northern and midland counties. ..... ----- Per etude of 81b% a d. a. d.

Pattenden and Smith report a brisk trade doing for all descriptions of the new growth, but week's quotations being fully maintained. A BRIDE DROWNED ON HER WEDDING DAY. Another melancholy catastrophe took place on the river Ribble, at Preston, on Saturday afternoon last. In the morning of that day a young man named John Turner, • spinner. living in Barnes-street, Accrinzton, was married at St. James's Church, in that town, to Mary Eli-abeth Ingham, a power-loom weaver, who lived in the same street. The other members of the bridal party were Eliza beth and Mary Ellen Aspden, and Robert Chippendale and John Rawcliffe, all weavers, and all residents in Accrington. After the marriage ceremony the whole party left Accring ton for Preston, where they proposed to stay until to-day (Monday). In the afternoon, about 3 o'clock, they bred a four-oared gig at Hesketh's boat-house, sod four of the party—the newly-married couple, and Chippendale and Elizabeth Aspdeu—entered it far a row on the river ; the other two, Rawcliffe and Mary Ellen Aspden, intending to walk on the bank of the river. As the four persons named stepped into the boat, one of the men jocularly remarked to the women. " We will have you in the water before we get back," and, laughing at the jest, they took their seats. When they had rowed as far se a point opposite to Ribble place they were turning the boat to go back, when it was upset, and • heartrending scene ensued. T urner managed to grasp the boat, which drifted to the Penwortham side of the river, and he gained the land • his wife. struggling in the water and shrieking frantically, was carried away by the current and drowned before his eyes, and the other two must soon have shared the same fete had not • boat, rowed by John Kelly and William Bonny, come up and rescued them in the nick of time, an alarm having been given by Rawcliffe and his companion. The body of the unfortunate young woman had not been recovered on Saturday night, nor is it likely that it will be until the present flood subsides. Not one of the whole party can give any reasonable explanation es to the cause of the ac cident, but it is stated as a probability that the bow of the beat, in turning, touched a point of land jutting into the river. ANOTHER LARGE PETROLEUM FIRE me ANT WERP.—There has been another serious petroleum fire in Antwerp, in a large ship which was lying in the docks. The fire occurred at about 10 o'clock on Thursday evening; the ship in question was surrounded with others laden with most explosive materials—turpentine and petroleum being their chief cargoes. There was also lying upon the quay a large quantity of timber. The vessels in proximity to that which first fired were aground, as the water was low and there was consequently no moving them. The burning petroleum floated out of the vessel into the decks, thus causing great danger to everything around. The adjoining vessel we. on fire several times. The hand fire engines were of little avail, and had it not been for thepre sewn of the steam fire engine recently supplied to the city authorities of Antwerp from London, which engine was awaiting its official trial, to take place on the Friday fol lowing, there is no knoll ;ng how far this fire may have ex tended, u it happened, fortunately, Mr. Richard Merry weather with one of the firm's fire brigade was present. At one time it was thought that even the steam fire engine would have fallen a saerifioe to the flames, so due was it to the burning vesseL Se►eral hours of labour on the part of those present, however, kept the deem and the damage from extending farther than the destruction of the one vessel when the fire origin►ted, and the scorching of the adjoining wog and mew.
