/parting intelligence. THE PAST MASON'S TWO-YEAR-OLDS. TO THE ZDFFOR OF SHE LIPRt3S. • tt,—Steeplectuuung, in consequence of clerks of courses being two easily frightened by the elements, has been entirely quiescent since my last ; and the New market assault case going of in a forfeit, there has been suttee; to interest the public but the doings at the clubs comer uing the two-year-olds. These hove been somewhat ominous of late with regard to one or two suspicions can didates. more particularly Blue Gown, about the first colt to really threaten the three magnificent fillies—Lady Elizabeth, Athena, and Leonie—that ruled the roast during the period reviewed in my last. lie was the only clipper assisting at Ascot Spring, the first day's productions comprising nothing better than lActor, who gave weight to La Belle Jeanne, North Marston, Jenny, Witchcraft, Oottyto, ec., and beat all but the lint-named a long way, hut did not get a place to Sir Joseph's cult, having to give him sib. as well as the second and third, Veda and North Marston. The Sunniughill was not an easily won race, the young Beadsman being so green that his jockey had some trouble to keep him straight ; but his want of condition made the performance good enough, and it looked fio worse than that of Lady Elizabeth at Salisbury, when she cal y just got home before Lord Palmerston, blaeduff, and Wild Blood, though Fordham was evidently drawieg it as tine as possible here. Nothing else came out at tie Marquis of Hastings' benefit of any account, only Cluck,. and Cock-of-the-Walk being worthy of mention ; nor ea..) there much to be learned during the four days in the north, at York and Doncaster. How Billet beat Eau do Vie and Stella for the Zetland is hard to conceive, as Bismarck next day gave him two stone and quite a stone beating, whilst he in tun could not do for Speculum at 2616 et Doncaster, just after the latter had failed in an attempt to give Vex 13116 in the Hopeful. Bath showed eta a pretty good selling plate in Lily, but no shining new light, the brace of rich stakes being mainly contested by Orbuston and Lady Elizabeth. The former had only Lord Palmerton, Patrician, the Sunbeam colt, and St. Valentine—a merely " promising " lot, not one having yet fulfilled the expectations formed of them at the time—to dispose of in the first place, and he was the best of The Lady's opponents in the second, a short head being the hat in favour of the present Dauebury crack for the Derby. Blue Gown, still green, and " disappointed" to boot, was only third to them, with Mb the best of the weights, an advantage also boasted by Formosa, who, with the more favoured Cocas, Weather Isle, Fawn, and Forest Sing, came home among the unplaeed, the two brat-named' being unprepared to meet such company. Not a solitary two-year-old figuredin the Badminton Stakes, and Balsam° was the only one of any great account in the new Nursery, albeit he could not sustain the good character earned here throughout the season, the last to him, Miss Camerine, leaving off most unmistakably his superior, if we are to believe in his third to Vex and Lily at Doncaster being correct. La Belle Jeanne " beating nothing" at Harpen den, I proceed straight from Bath to Epsom, where quite a host of new characters appeared on the scene, and a couple with very high character!, viz., Restitution and Innertlae. A mistake, however, had been made with regard to the last named, for he was " never in it," and at the finish was mug lengths behind his stable-companion Speculum, who managed to get the second place to the French Le Tarrazin, which Restitution ought to have secured, Bid same, Lady Highthorn, Forest King, Cork Jacket, and Hatchment figuring among the unplaced ; with the " backward" Kinpland and }ranchise, this seemed real good form on the part of the Mounseer, as he won so easily ; but another tale was told very shortly ; the placed trio having all been pegged back whenever they met such things as Lady Elizabeth, who in the off-day's half-mile again ha d a severe tussle with Grimaton, only shaken off after a dead beat. In the same race the Baron's colours were again third, King Alfred finishing so far off as made him appear some 1011) behind his little neighbour, Gri instep, wbo had earlier iu the week made a sad exempla of 100[118 old flyers, and one or two nursery candidate. in the all-aged Heathoote Plate, • description of race that exactly suited him. At any rate, racing under high weights against Lady Elizabeth,even on • short course that was all in his favour, does not seem to have been hie game, for he never won • race after his three desperate tussles with the Danebury flyer, and was done with alto gether before July was over. A new Plate for juveniles showed us Orion in his true colours at last, as he beat King Alfred, besides Wild Blood, very cleverly st 41b advantage ; and in some minor matters we had Patti in tune when the money was on ; nevertheless, all such class animals must go to the rear while the review of the celebrities of lee 7 is pending, and I should have to quite pass over the busy " week after the Derby." had not Evelina, Torch, Sawyer, and the useful Pero, and (when wanted) Presideet Lincoln, given us • testa of their quality at Newton-in-the-Willows. Ascot has tinny a time and oft introduced us to the best of aspiring youngsters, and this year we were quite swamped with wondrous dibutants, who took the places of nearly all the old celebrities they happened to meet. At the very commencement, quite a new named was enrolled among the winners, Slack Diamond staying so well as to win the mile Trial, though the weights are so lenient to the two-year-old that this was not surprising, the second to the son of Dundee receiving no less than 54 from the third in the race, old Ostreger. The Diamond was claimed for the entered selling price (6001.) by the Letter's party, who have, however, been unable to make anything of him, for he has been in a queer strait ever since. Many much higher characters went in for the Maiden Plate, and Real crucian, Charnwood, Contempt, Banditti), and Betty were about the best five in the large field, which included the patiently waiting Eastby, Yardarm, Paul Jones, and others on the same mission as they. Looking at what his opponents have done since, the easy victory of Rosicnician in this instance becomes one of his beat performances, and there was no mistaking the formidable front " Sir Joseph" pre sented for The Derby when bis Blue Gown disposed of Grimston next day, not only at his own distance, but his own weights. It was for a new-comer, Seesaw, to figure the beat in the all-aged Queen's Stand Plate that has brought out many a flyer; yet he had tosuccumb to Cecrope when in receipt of hat, and was not home very far before the 516-penalised Speculum, who, like Formosa (also close up) was just beginning to get cherry-ripe. See mlier ran • good race with Suffolk and Vale Royal the same day, no lesser lights than The Earl (untrained) and Tregeagle being behind the trio ; but Suffolk won easier than many supposed, and Tregeagle, too, showed on the same course what a good horse he was when in the humour, by running away from both Seesaw and Formosa two clays afterwards. Vale Royal also ran badly in his second essay on the royal ground, as he was =placed to the fresh-coming Europa, with 17ncaa and Formosa, in the Triennial, that hes looked like a false run race ever since. Still, he was disgraced in good company, Pearlfeather, The Parson, and Reetitu lion being equally unfortunate, to say nothing of Michael de Basco, tried so highly that there was quite a rush on the Derby books " before he won." To wind up the juvenile races with Lercie we had many vaunted dark things in the New Stakes, and a brace of them—Rabican and Chelsea—wen of such good repute that many of the talent confidently expected Lady Elizabeth, with her 51b penalty, would receive a check in her hitherto victorious career. But, getting what she wanted for the first time in her life, • scope of ground, she eclipsed all her previous doings by running clean away from everything at last, and ell the consolation the Derby bookers of the pair just named had, was that they were " backward." After tide, the prospect of a filly's carrying off the Blue Riband in 1806 was talked about in earnest, and the (+van:anti went home from Ascot satisfied they had learned something, Blue Gown having betrased as much improvement as the Marquis of Hastings' lady, and the four days' proceedings having introduced them to a string of pearls like Real erucian, Charnwood, Contempt, Seesaw, Vale Royal, Tregeagle, Europa, and Black Diamond, leaving out all considerations of the lot that did not exactly distinguish themselves—such as The Earl, Ban ditto, Michael de Basco, Chelsea, and 'tableau —but merely premised to do so come day. The supplementary meetings to Ascot, Windsor, and Hampton showed us Scotehman's Pride, Purveyor, the Parson, Beatrice Grey, and Betty in their true light, which is more than can be said of Nome that were behind them. Maestlerwen's two splendid tussles with Veda, so difficult to understand now, were perhaps an " incident but nothing deserting of especial note came out during the three days at Manchester, where Torch was the shining light. At the gathering in the north the next week, again, there was only Miss Euclid to create a new sensa tion, the other victorious one at Beverley, Stella, being well known. A somewhat similar story to this has to be told with reference to the four days at Stockbridge, where, in despite of fourteen two-year-old stakes worth an segregate of more teen 15,0001. to the winners being in waiting, the fields were miserably small, Danebury scaring away, with its Athena, Manielnke, Europa, Seesaw, and lady Elizabeth—everything of note except Lion* For mosa, Contempt, Innerdale, Rabizen, Mnrtemer, Iron master, St. Ronan, and Angus. The four last-named were new lights, the latter pair being the 2,500 guinea and 2,000 guinea yearling celebrities of Middle Park the year before : but they all had to depart, defeated by the home division, who, however, lost the richest stake in the pro gramme. This was the Hamilton Sweepstakes, wherein Leonie, after a dead heat, easily upset the odds of 5 to 2 laid on Athena, a blow it took some time to recover from, and that the successful d :bat of Idameluke in the other heavy sweep, the Donnington, did not at all wipe out. It was thought this latter colt would improve materially on his bead defeat of Innerdale some day, though the fact of his having been let go, at the recent sale, for about one sixth of the Earl's mice, does not say much for her Derby chance now, much as it may have been fancied once. Athena's defeat reduced the apparent strength of the stable ; and it was more the way she won than what she beat that added to Lady Elizabeth's prestige there being nothing to eclipse Leonia's form in her overthrow of St. Ronan, Rahicao, and Ironmaster, who also succumbed to Europe and Seesaw, on the same ground. In fact, people began to talk of the July wick at Newmarket being likely to rem the very latest edition of " Crucifix " defeated ; and In waiting for this such minor matters as that strung coining out in the meantime of Frolicsome, Donaldbain, and La Mousse at Newcastle, of Dulcet at Worcester, and et some old hands at Chelmsford a nd Ipswi c h, crea t e d no stir whatever. But Lady Elizabeth was NI great over the three-quarters " behind the ditch" as that at Ascot, and beat not only Leonie for the Jule, but also Le Su main, Restitution, and the slashing 'Court Mantle ; so that ..•••• s - THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 17, 1867. when Athena ran away from Grimaton for the Exeter Stakes, it looked like John Lay nearly sweeping the board at Newmarket as well as at home, and the '• mad" odds of to I were laid on the daughter of Heroine for the Ches terfield, until her nervous conduct at the post opened the eyes of the talent. It happened that the Duke of Hamil ton's beauty beat her again, though she was only able to get second, the 71b advantage in the weights boasted by Formosa (who had lost her maiden name at Stockbridge when beating Contempt for the Nursery) bringing her home a clever length in advance. This race rather added to Lady Elizabeth's lustre than otherwise, for by Suffolk being only a bad third, and Athena behind him, it was shown Leonie must be in form, and for the crack to beat her easily was quite enough to keep her in the stable, even if everything else had to go at the late sale. The minor events were participated in by many useful animals, and in a paltry 50/. Plate, Seesaw lost the good name he had previously woo, by running only third to Hippie (giving 301 b for the year) and Ninny. What the others not waiting for nurseries did, had very little bearing on the form of the cracks, and I need only record that Idalia, False Alarm, Charnwood, a sister ; to Lincoln Green, and Ritualist, played pretty fair parts during the meeting, the recent doings of the unnamed one being anything but in keeping with her good second to Charnwood ill the Ffield wherein Ritualist was a bad third. rom the foregoing remarks it will be observed that the best of the early celebrities got over a critical time very creditably, Lady Elizabeth, Athena, Leonie, Suffolk, rums, and Speculum having been quite as highly thought of, as a body, at the close of the Newmarket July week, as they were at the end of April. Still, they were most unmistakably rivalled, the performances of Blue Gown, Lictor, Formosa, Rosicrucian, Restitution, Innerdale, Le Sarrazin, King Alfred, Anon, Eeelins, Torch, Con tempt, Charnwood, Seesaw, Vale Royal, Tregeagle, Europa, The Parson, Chelsea, Rabican, Black Diamond, Mameluke, Ironmaster. St. Ronan, Frolicson.e, Donald bain, La Mousse, and Idalia, proving alone what a grand lot of two-year-oida the season was bringing forth.— I am, &c., METEOR. SHARE LISTS.-THIS DAY.)

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—Dec. 16. SECOND COURT. Sittings at Niai Prlus in London.—(Before Mr. Justice Smith and a Common Jury.) DEACON r. FESOUISSON. This was an action to recover damages for injuries sus tained by being run over. Mr. &damn Rallantine and Mr. Hance appeared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Ocerend, Q.C., and Mr. (kWh& for the defendant The plaintiff was a young woman who managed the house of her brother, • fruiterer in Park-street, Grosvenor square, and on the morning of the 20th March last she was walking with her sister along Brook-street. They were crossing the end of South Molton-street, and the plaintiff, according to her case, was within one step across, when a dust cart belonging to the defendant turned suddenly into South Molton-street, knocked her down, and ran over her. Her right thigh was broken and the other leg was severely lacerated. She was in the hospital for 18 weeks and obliged to be in the country afterwards for 13 weeks. The right leg was permanently shortened, she still walked with crutches, and would do so for three months longer. As to negligence, the plaintiff's case was that the defendant's driver was so far away from the horse as to have no control over it, and that the horse turned suddenly upon the plaintiff without warning. On the °ther hand it was said that the horse was on its proper side and was walking at the ordinary pace, that the driver was by its side, and that the plaintiff could easily have got out of its way, that she had in fact passed the horde when the animal trod upon her dress which was trailing upon the ground, an d so pulled her down. It was further stated for the de fendant, but contradicted for the plaintiff, that the plaintiff herself, and also her sister, immediately after the accident, said that the driver was not in fault. The jury found for the plaintiff—damages, 2501. TATTERSALL'S.—DIosDAY. The attendance to-day was meagre in 'the extreme, and the disposition to transact any sort of bm.ineas so totally subdued, that it appeared as though the afternoon would pass by without a single wager being recorded. A few bets were, however, ultimately booked as undermentioned: TWO 1 DOUSAND GUINEAS. 9 to 1 agst Sir J II saley's Greco Steers (t to 850). 90 to 10 Mr. Graham's Formosa DERRY. 11 to 1 agst Sir J.

The most noticeable incidents in the day's proceedings were the retrogression of Harvester for the Derby, against whom 40 to 1 wax laid and offered, although at one time of the day 1000 to 30 was taken. There appeared to be a desire to back Green Sleeve for both the Two Thousand and the Derby, while for the last-named race Blue Gown looked anything but healthy. Formosa had a coming appearance for the Two Thousand, 900 to 100 being accepted. It will also be per ceived that Chelsea was supported for tooth his engage ments.

SHOCKING MURDER OP A CHILD IN LAMBETH. At Lambeth Police-court yesterday, a young man of morose aspect, named Thomas Clarke, was placed in the dock charged before Mr. Elliott with the wilful murder of Annie Smith, aged about three month., at No. 45, Tyer-street, LamlAtth. The prisoner was unde fended. He is a short-built man, described as a labourer, aged 27 years. During the examination he glanced un easily round the court, which was crowded to excess. Upon being placed in the dock, in emitter to a question from the chief clerk, he said in a loud and rough manner that his name was Thomas Clarke. Police-constable Hawes, 195 L, was the first witness. He said—List night, at ball-pest seven, I was in the Waterloo-road, between Dakley•street and Tower-street, when the prisoner came up to 11113 and said, "Do you want a job ?" I said " I don't know ; that depends upon what it is." He said " I shall give myself up to you for murdering a child." I asked him where, and he said, "At 55, Tyer-street. I strangled it." I said, " Very well; you will have to come with me to the station," and he said he would. We went to the station in Tower-street, and there prisoner made the ewe statement to the acting inspector. Mr. Elliott—Have you seen the body of the deceased' Witueu—l was directed to go to 55, Tyer-street, where I saw the child—a female—lying dead in the anus of its mother, who gave the name of Eliza Smith. Mr. Elliott—Did you observe any marks of violence on the body of the child? Witness-1 saw where there had been the cord produced tied round the neck of deceased. I believe the woman had removed the oonl from the neck. Police-constable Manilla, 126 L—Last night I was in the Waterloo-road,and saw the last witness and the prisoner go down Tower-street into the police-station. The last witness said, " This man has given himself up to me for killing a child." The acting inspector asked him how he did it, and he said not with a cord, but with his fingers, and the child was in the back-room down stairs at 55, Tier-street. We were then sent with the prisoner to Kennington-lane station, and coming along the road the prisoner said to me—" I hope she has not done anything to herself lam afraid she lass, for when I went back at half-put am I found the door locked." I said to the pri soner, 'Of whom are you speaking 1" and be said, "Eliza Smith, the child's mother. I left her asleep at half-past five. She had been asleep about twenty minutes, when I strangled the child with my fingers, and I hope it is dead. I have been out of work ten weeks, and we have sold nearly everything off for food. When I got up this morning we had no breakfast, and all we have had to-day is a p iece of dry bread—there is none left." That was all he said to me. The Prisoner—l said I had been out of work for eight weeks. Witness continued—l went to 55, Tyer-street, and there in the back parlour I saw the female named Eliza Smith, with the dead body of a female child lying naked in her arms. Constable 145 L was in the room, and he gave me the piece of cord produced. On looking at the child I saw that there was a mark of • cord round its neck. Dr. Richards came in shortly afterwards, and said that life had been extinct for about three hours. ----- Eliza Smith, a decent looking young woman, who cried bitterly, was next examined. She said—l am a single woman, and have been living with the prisoner as his wife for about seven months, at No. 5.3, Tyervereet. Lambeth. The de ceased was my daughter, and was 10 weeks old. She wee baptised Annie Smith. The prisoner was not her father. I laid down on Sunday afternoon at about five o'clock. The prisoner was then in the same room, and nursing the deceased. I had fallen asleep, and was awakened after dusk by bearing the shutting of the room and street doors. I then found the deceased lying behind me on the bed. I took it up and tried to feed it, but it would not take the breast. I then saw the cord round its neck, and the child was dead. I rushed up in alarm, and found that the cord was tied very tightly round the child's neck. I laid the baby down and went round to the prisoner's father's and asked if be had been there. His stepmother told me that he had looked in, but did not stop a minute. I next saw him at the station. By the Magistrate—We had passed the day very hap piltogether. The prisoner was very good to me and the ba . We had nut had any words at all. There was noting .. at all the matter with the prisoner iu any way sr, only that he sppesred to be low-spirited all yesterday, were in great distress from difficulties. There was scarcely anything in our rooms. lam positive we had sot quarrelled yesterday. The prisoner said nothing in particular about the deceased, but was kind. The cord was tied very tightly. I took up a knife and cut it, as I could not untie it. I left the cord lying on the bed. I did not know the cord before, nor had I seen it about the room. The Prisoner (in a loud tone)—lt was the cord my knife bung up by—it is what I had my knife hanging on. Now, Eliza, you know it, don't you ? Mr. Elliott (to witneu)—After what the prisoner says, do you know the cord ? Witness—l know that he had • piece of string like this to hang his knife upon. Sergeant Harris said that at present there was no fur- ther evidence, end a post-mortem examination of the body would have to be made. Mr. Elliott then inquired If the prisoner had anything to say. The Prisoner (elearly)—Nothing at all, sir. The prisoner was remanded for a week. [Advertisement.]—HoLLowmem OnrrmaNT &NH Pito.

Bitting. at Nisi Prius.—(Befo re Mr. Baron Bramwell and • Special Jury.) ELY r. GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action for bodily injuries sustained by a railway accident. Negligence on the . part of the defen dants was admitted, and the only question was the amount of damages to which the plaintiff was entitled. Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., and Mr. Mellor were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. D. Keane, Q.C., and Mr. Lanyon counsel for the defendants. - 7 --- The plaintiff, Mr. Talfourd Ely, was one of the assistant tutors at University College, London. On the 2ud July, 1866, he was a passenger in an express train from London to Cambridge, which met with en accident near Royston. The engine and several carriages were thrown over the embankment, and the plainti ff was severely shaken, but at the time he did not think he had been much hurt, and he dined at Peter House, Cambridge, the same evening. A few days afterwards he felt a pain in his back, and be gradually became worse. The result was that instead of being, as he formerly was, a man of more than average strength and distinguished as • great walker and cricketer, he suffered from exhaustion and de bility, and could only walk with difficulty. The theory advanced on his behalf was that his spine had been in jured or shaken, and that all his symptoms were to be attributed to that circumstance, but it was not suggested that he would not ultimately recover. It appeared that be had been obliged to relinquish the secretaryship to Hibbert's Trust, for which he received 501. • year, and could not receive so many private pupils as previously. His income from his professional avocations was said to be between 330/. and 300/. a year, but that had been seriously diminished during his illness, and be had spent a large sum in trips to the seaside and the lakes in hope of re covering his health. The company had paid 250/. into court, and the defence really was that that sum was sufficient to compensate the plaintiff for the injury he had sustained. Several medical men were called on both sides. The jury found a verdict for she plaintiff with .5001. damages in addition to the sum paid into court. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCIIIT.—LryzapooL, DEC. 16. Nisi Paws Courr.—(Before Mr. Justice Mee.) HYATT r. ME MIDLAND RAILWAY COMPANY.-RAILWAT COMPENSATION TO A COMMERCIAL TNATELLEB. In this case the plaintiff, a commercial traveller named Hyatt, sought damages for personal injury from the Mid- land Railway Company. The plaintiff was in the employ of Messrs. R. S. Bewail and Co., wire-rope natant acturen, of Gateshead, his salary being 1751. per annum, but by commission his total annual income wasraised to 250/. per annum. Mr. Hyatt was in the habit of travelling between Leeds and Bristol, and on the Bth of March last, while in a secend•class carriage on the defendants' line between Chesterfield and Sheffield, a collision occurred at Staveley which severely injured the plaintiff, who was thrown on to the Hoor of the carriage and rendered insensible. He had since been put to great expense for medical treatment, was obliged to reside in the country, and was a widower with five children. The sole question for the jury was the amount of damages. A verdict was given for the plaintiff, who it was said would not be able to work for at least two years, with damages to the amount of 1,0001. Bobert Porter, . a labourer, was indicted for the murder of Thomas Counsel _ _ The prisoner and the deceased wcre neighbours, their wives had bad some quarrel, and the prisoner had been so exasperated in consequence of his wife having been thrown downstairs, that he burst into Counsel's bedroom, and in flicted a deadly wound upon Counsel by striking him on the back with a ship scraper. The prisoner was found Guilty of manslaughter ; but The judge, in passing sentence, said it was an offence but one degree removed from murder, and he sentenced the prisoner to transportation for life. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. THE CHARGE AGAINST RIR CULLIIIO ZARDLKY. In this case in which Sir Culling Bardley is charged with committing bigamy, Mr. Montagu Williams applied for a postponement of the trial until next session, on the ground that there had not been sufficient time to prepare the de fence, the defendant having only been taken into custody on Monday last and committed on Tuesday. Mr. Giffard, Q.C., who appeared on behalf of the prose cution, did not oppose the application, and the Recorder accordingly allowed the case to atand over as requested. His lordship declined to accede to an application to ad mit the defendant to bail. George Brown 30, described as a shoemaker, pleaded guilty to stealing • 241 b. chest of tea from one of Pick ford's vans. _ . A police officer stated that he had known the prisoner as a notorious thief for the hat sixtetm years; and evi dence was given to show that he had been repeatedly in priaon, and had on one occasion been sentenced to tour years' penal servitude. The Recorder said it was idle to address any observations to a man of such a character. The sentence of the court upon him was seven years' penal servitude. Jam Cook !licit, 28, clerk, pleaded guilty to an indict ment charging him with embezzling and stealing three orders for the payment respectively of ill. Is. 3d., 141.55. 81., and 5/. Se. Sd., the property of Julius Augustus Farwigand another. The'Reoorder remarked that this was a case in which the defendant had enjoyed the confidence aids employers, and been in receipt of a salary which might have pke.d him beyond temptation. The sentence of the court was two years imprisonment with bard labour. Georfre Puce, warehouseman, aged 64, pleaded guilty to steeling a quantity of tin from his employers, )[:sere. Warner and Co., brass founders. The prisoner had been in their employment for tweety years, and there was reason to suspect that this was nut his first °fleece. He was sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment with haul labour. MIDDLESEX SESSION& THE AITIMPTED FRAUD UPON THE GOVERNMENT. Julie Hall, the man who has been two or three times before the court in reference to an attempted fraud on the government, Lord Vivian, the Countess Nelson, and several other members of the aristocracy, was brought up for judgment. It will be remembered that at the last session a charge was made against the prisoner, on the authority of the Aldedestield Courier, that he was the pence who had been carrying on a number of frauds at Carlisle, and that he hadartfully defrauded a person who was induced to become an agent for Sir Edwin Landaeer in recovering pictures of an early date executed by him, but unworthy hie present or matured fame. The prisoner produced a daub of a dog and cat, and obtained 141. for it, the whole affair being fabricated and concocted by the prisoner him self. The prisoner then denied that he was the person alluded to, and Mr. Lockyer, the officer of the court, was directed to make inquiries about it. To-day Mr. Lockyer stated that he had received a letter from the superintendent of police at Carlisle ' in which he stated that he had no doubt whatever that the prisoner was the person referred to in the Maerievield Courier. An officer from the office of the Sheriff of Middlesex said that the prisoner brought an action against the Union Bunk of London for not discounting a cheque, and for which be tail his damages at 3,000/. The witness was di rected to make inquiries as to who and what he was, and from the inquiries he made he found that be was a returned convict, and bad been prosecuted for getting money from an old gentleman at Woolwich, he representing him self to be a surgeon in the army, and he was about to marry his daughter. From circumstances, however, that came to the knowledge of the father, the match was broken off, but he had succeeded in fleecing the father of a large sum of money. He also brought an action against the London and North Western Railway Company for taking him five smile' beyond the place he was booked for. The trial was to have taken place in the Court of Ex chequer, and a number of witnesses were summoned, and were in attendance from Newark on behalf of the com pany.

VI Rather more wool changed hands at the latter end of but week, but the market to-day has been very quiet. The Fenien outrage in London, the only topic of conversation, seems for the moment to have put a stop to buaineu. The trade in worsted yarns is most unsatisfactory, and the orders given out are wholly inadequate to employ all the machinery. Prices are very irregular. There is little if any change in pieces, and from all we can learn ',either the home nor the foreign houses have placed orders of any moment to-day. Prices are not materially altered. CATTLE.—LITIMPOOL, DEC. 16.—The supply of cattle was the largest and best ever shown in Liverpool. The show of sheep was also large, and of prime quality.

THE LIVERPOOL CHRISTMAS SHOW OF F.tr Carrxx.—The great Christmas show of fat cattle was hit yesterday, at Stanley market. There was a good aides:. and of butchers and salesmen. The supply of useful lei really prime cattle was unusually large, she attendaniY of agriculturists of late years being directed to tie supply of well fleshed, well flavoured animals rather ths: over-fatted beasts. This was specially the case tut: regard to Irish cattle, the mild climate of the site. island permitting the cattle to remain on her rich tures till late on in the season, thus preserving in a measure the natural flavour of beef so well kuowu to c,,;. noisseurs, and which is lost in beef fed entirely on artifia food. The Sooteh cattle numbered a twenty-tifth of tie entire supply the remainder were Irish. There were Spanish or Portuguese cattle. The Messrs. Mau! Fetherstonhaugh, Michael Shander, Johnson, O. L. Murphy, Samel Garnett, A. Browne, and James White. all well-known feeders, exhibited large lots of cattle. d great weight and unexceptionable quality. There Id , but a few lots of cattle from the Dublin market. But a wee obvious from their appearance that the hardships of standing two markets injured the animals very mccb , the true economic principle of bringing together the jru decor and consumer being more and more appreciaud every year, thus effecting a great saving in cost and fr,i• dom from injury.
