L"NDON INDUSTRIAL EXHI. LIMON: " The interesting exhibition which was yesterilayia : au,;urated with fitting solemnity by Earl Russell at . the Agricultural-hall, lalingtou, exhibits a marked and gratifying stageof progress, as com pared with the first ttteuipt of the industrial classes in Lambeth to present to the public a collection of the results of their labours sutlicieutly good to attract general attention. In numbers the articles exhibited were far in excess of the previous show, and we have very high authority, as will be seen below, from Earl Itu-sell's ottservations, for saying that in every branch of mechanical ingenuity, and even in twine dariny attempts to invade the realms of higher art, the working men of North Loudou have exhibited a laudable anxiety to produce something which should justify the high rank which they claim and take muouget the artisans of the world. The story of the origin and growth of this re markable exhibition is simple enough. In April' last some half-dozen workaug men discussed the propriety of holding a Clerkenwell exhibition. A public meeting followed, which attracted applica tions for participation from various other London districts, and the mutt was the organisation of the prcient exhibition, subject, however, to the im portaut contingency of finding amongst the wealthier classes persons of sufficient public spirit, and of sympathy with the working classes, to guarantee the necessary expenses. Guarantors were not slow in coming forward for the modest sum (3501.) required, and the names of the Earl of Shaftesbury, Right Ron. W. E. Gladstone, Miss ! Burdett Coutts, Mr. W. IL Bodkin. Mr. amuel Morley, Alderman Lusk, Mr. Thomas Wink worth, Mr. Nicholay, and several other gen tlemen removed all feelings of uneasiness as to the pecuniary results of the undertaking. It was at first proposed to hold the exhibition in one of the smaller rooms of the Agricultural-hall, but so numerously did the applications of exhibi tors pour in that an appeal had to be made to the directors who at once and in the most liberal' ' manner placed the large hall at the disposal of the committee. These preliminary difficulties having been overcome, a term of four mouths was found sufficient to mature everj thing , to "put the right thing in the right place, and to arrange the exhi bition in the manner in which it was thrown open to the public yesterday. Previous to the ceremonial inauguration a pri vate view was permitted, when we were agreeably sur prised to find au exhibition of nearly nine huudred articles of the most varied description, and all deeply suggestive and interesting as showing thebentof the working man's mind and the sort of labour in which he by choice occupies his leisure hours. It is said] that human nature is food of paradox, and one remarkable feature of the exhibition is the wide difference which its specimens in dicate between the man's natural tastes and the occupation by which he gets his living. A whole side-wall is covered with oil paintings, water colours, and drawings in chalk, std it almost provokes a smile to find that they are nearly all the productions of men engaged in the most incongruous occupations. A whole compartment is occupied with the gallery of a pork butcher in Holton, and a very curious gallery it is, one which we are sure Sir E. Laudseer or Mr. Marline would look at with a great deal of curiosity and interest. The artist, although probably never having seen a Dutch painting, is a devoted disciple of the Dutch achoul, and composes entirely after the Dutch man nee There are village merrymakings, boors drink ing, cobblers at work, and misers counting their money, and the amount of character that is infused into these rude attempts, painted as they are in entire ignorance of the most elementary rules of art, is absolutely surprising. There is one small picture in this compartment of a cobbler at work which is really of considerable merit—with a little brown Tarnish and a reasonable seasoning of smoke it would cut a very respectable figure in a west-eud catalogue. In another compartment is a very am bitions oil painting, the work of a postman, the subject being "The Murder of William Rufus in the New Forest." The trees, skies, and forest glade are exceedingly well done, much better than the figures, but the whole is a surprising attempt, and what makes it more interesting is that the artist has hung up immediately under it his first attempt in oil, - so that the spectator may see at a glance how bard he must have worked, and how genuine his zml for art must have been, to have enabled him, unasssisted, to make such progress as the second picture exhibits. A Mr. Coucanen exhibits some exceedingly beautiful landscapes in chalk, but, if we remember rightly, this gentle man was an exhibitor at Kensington iu 1862, and his works then attracted much and favourable notice. Passing from the artists to the mechanics, who have tilled the centre with their models, we tiud a watch tiuisher's apprentice sending in a beam steam engine, and others, models of ships, houses, cot tages, mansions, churches, chapels, prisons, and fortresses. The working men seem, in fact, to delight in the construction of these elaborate toys, and exhibit various degrees of taste in their de coration. A manuscript magazine, containing the essays of the Barbican Mutual Improvement Su dety, will be a tract of rare value some cen tury hence ; and beside this will be found ivory turned out of the solid piece in the cleverest man ner, original drawings, and methods for improving almost every article of household necessity. We noticed a highly-finished model in polished steel of a breech-loading cannon, but as a general rule, the British workman does not seem inclined to waste his ingenuity in the making of implements of destruction. The whole collection will well repay a visit, and is calculated to give valuable hints as to the modes in which the education of the working classes would be best promoted ; but it would be obviously impossible to include elaborate details respecting an exhibition of nearly 900 articles In an account of an inaugural ceremonial. The exhibition is divided into eight classes, namely, professional workmanship, ama teur productions, inventions and novel con tri vances, mechanical models, architectural, marine, and ornamental models, artistic objects, ladies' work of all kinds, and miscellaneous. In addition to the contributions of the workmen themselves. attractive objects have been sent in from various collections. There are numerous precious specimens of art workmanship from Ken aingtou Museum. Mr. Niebolay sends in his well knowd ',turfed tiger% and Mr. Benson, of Ludgate bill, a curious and unique collection of antique watches and clocks—a peculiarly interesting contri bution to an exhibition which, it may be said, was created iu Clerkenwell. In this rare assortment are two watches, the cases of which are cut from the solid topaz ; another, a fine specimen of enemelling, subjee, "The Adoration of the Magi ; " and another, with a portrait of Charles I. iu the lid. The interest of this portion of the exhibition is made perfect by the juxtaposition of some of the finest watches of Mr. Benson's own manufacture, the whole forming a most instructive series of ancient and modern horology. The honr for the inaugural ceremony was three o'clock, and by that time the vast hall was densely filled with a most respectable audience, attracted by the intimation that Earl Russell was to deliver the in..ugural address. His lordship, although evidently muttering from a severe cold, was punctual to hi, tine, and was received on his entrance with several di-•:inet rounds of cheering. A small plat form ha I been erected iu front of the grand orchestra, ..ud on it a chair of state, which was occupied by the noble earl while the secretary was reading the report. This lengthy document, to which the audience listened with commendable patience, having been disposed of, Earl Russell, attended by the members of the committee, walked round the exhibition, carefully inspecting the various articles and receiving renewed plaudits from the vast assemblage as be passed slowly along. On his return, his lordship came to the front of the platform and spoke as follows : Ladies ~ml Gentlemen.—lhave to twagratalete yea upon the . •Ati•Jit which I base just bees privileged to witness. It has Leen the greatest satisfaction tome to observe the works of .k.:l and industry of the North London working dames, and Ism loaned to say that, Ia my *aka. what!

Tim* are works JIM cad ingenuity is oinks and cabinet making, and in various style* and branches of professional skill, which ti would take me long indeed to enumerate, which many of you will here an opportunity of seeing from day to day, sod which can scarcely fail to give you the highest satis faction. I must °oohing that it gave me pride and pleasure to be the fellow countryman of men who have so employed their time, who have exhibited the greatest ingenuity in the works they have performed, and who in the excellent performance of that work have does credit to the country to which they belong. (Loud cheers.) Those who first conceived the thought of this ex hibition of industry did but junkie to the intelligence and skill of their fellow nmintrymen, and I coegratalate them upon the greet sue-less which has already attended their efforts. (Rear, bear.) It is in this manner that this shows, and has given another proof that the working classes of London are, u I believe, the highest working classes in the world, the mast distinguished in the works which they per form, the most reedy to accomplish anything which may be set before them, thus making this great oommunity that whisk it ought to be—the hoed of the civilised world in all those works which betoken civilisation and proms'. (Cheers.) We must all be thankful that it is permitted to us to enjoy under the laws of this country the safeguards by which those works may be made available, and through which every one can be certais that it he devotes his time to works that do him credit he will receive his just reward. (Cheers.) It is therefore that we ought all to be thaokf al to en Almighty Power from whom we enjoy so many bless ings, that we are permitted to joie together in works of industry which tend so roach to the further progress of our national civilisation. (Cheers.) I was happy to accede to the proposal that was made to me to open this exhibition, and I now say that I had no conception when I easepted the Levitation that the works of industry to be exhibited would display es much ingenuity and skill. I most heartily non. gratulate you upon the sum», which has attended this enterprise, and I now formally declare this Exhibition of the North London Working Cleseeeopeoed. (Load cheers.) An ode, written by Mr. Bellamy and composed I by Mr. Wesley expressly for the occasion, was then sung by the Misses Pyne and Mr. Geier, and prayer Laving been offered up by the Rev. Robert Maguire, incumbent of St. James's, Clerkenwell, the National Anthem was sung. After which, Mr. Digby Seymour, proposed a vote of thanks to Earl Russell, eloquently reminding the meeting of the great services which his lordship had ren dered to the working-classes, and expressing his fer vent Lope that his lordship might be spared to com plete the work which he had so nobly and so suc cessfully begun. Mr. G. Cruikshank having seconded the motion, it was put and carried by acclamation, the company renewing with increased fervour the cheers with which they had greeted his lordship on entering the building. When the applause bad somewhat subsided, Hari RUMELL said—Ladies and geetlemen, I beg to re• turn my very heartfelt thanks for the honour which has just been does me, in giving me a vote of thanks for the very easy and delightful work which I have performed to day. I, however, may claim myself the position of • working-man—(loud cheers)-fer although I do not wish to enter here into political doquisitioes, I may be permitted to say that the greatest portion of my life has been passed in political labour. (Hear, hear.) I may, perhaps, so far allude to politic an to tell you what happened to me when I wee member for the City of London. A measure was brought into parliament —a very excellent meuure, as I thought—by Sir /Übe» Peel for permitting freedom of trade with regard to many articles of which the foreign product would enter into eoespetitioa with the work of our own citizens. Many tradesmen who were affected by it came to me to complain that they were about to be exposed to competition with all the world. I remember one espe cially, &shoemaker, who said to me," I have great difficulty to obtain one bit of beef in the week for my family, and yet you ►re propos:ng to pour in the productions of all the world to compete with us ; you maintain a tax °a the bread we eat," and he wished me to oppose the measure. I said, "Permit me to tell you that no such injustice as you describe can long continue after year trade has been thrown open to competition with other nations. You will find that in a short time the cora laws will be repealed." And 6o accordingly it 'sapwood that in four years after that ► bill was introduced to repeal the core laws, and that freedom of trade was extended to the business of the farmer as well as that of the msonfecturer. That is an example to show you that, whilst you persevere in a steady course of industry whilst you show so much intellect and skill, no law t h at oppresses you is your rights and privi leges will long be permitted to remain. You will fled that, after • reasonable period of diecuseion—for it has been said that no great question can be settled in this country without a considerable amount of talking—(a laugh) —you will find that that which is jest will be granted to you, and that par. hairnet will accede to every demand which you are rea sonably entitled to make. (Loud cheers.) But whilst I lay that. you will also allow me to My that it happens to those who work at polities not always to succeed so well as those who are engaged in other trades. For instance I maw in this ball • balance so nicely adjusted as to b; capable of weighing the ten thousandth part of a grain, and I saw watches which would mark divisions of • second, but we who are engaged in politics are not able to adjust our balances and watches to that degree of nicety. (Cheers and laughter.) We cannot adjust the balance of the constitu tion so finely, nor make government keep time to minutes and seconds, and thereto» it will become you, as it has hitherto become you, to show confidence in the laws of the country. I remember that in that dreadful year of 184 d, wheel the streeta of Paris and Vienna were deluged with blood when on one side men were fighting for their rights, sod others were resisting for the preservation of order, the people of London also rose in insurrec tion, but it was an insurrection on behalf of the law of order and of peace, and to uphold the constitution of the country. (Loud cheers.) I trust that such in future will be your conduct, and you may depend on it that this is a country in which, by means of discussion, by means of the press and of parliament, by means of public opinion expreseed in the usual way, the good and the right will at length prevail, and under God every individual man in the nation will be blessed. (Loud cheers.) Tire noble earl retired after the conclusion of hie speech amid the loudest cheering from the vast assembly, and the inaugural ceremony having Dow terminated, the company scattered itself over the building, and proceeded to examine the various articles exhibited. DEMOLITION or TITS GREAT EXHIBITION BUlLD rco.—Yesterasy, a 000siderable number of persons visited the neighbourhood of the Great Exhibition Middies, it hay. ing been announced that it WM intended to blow down the two towers that supported the great doom adjacent to the Bortieultural-gardens, in the Etbibitios•rosd, but this operation was postponed fora day or two to enable Sir John Burgoyne and other officers of the Royal Eastport, from Chatham to be protest at the operatioe. The public, how ever, bad the opportunity of witnessing the corps of sappers sod misers, ender Captain Knocker, at work upon the basement of the towers, where they were engaged during the day in boring at intervals in the brickwork the requisite chambers for the disploaion, large orifices being formed for the reception of the explosive charges, some twenty or thirty in number, repre senting a total undermining powder force of 10011 n. weight to each tower. These charges are proportioued to the weight sod thickonis of the walls, and to thedistance of the borings apart from one another, and after the charges are put in the holes are" tamped ^and then fired by electric batteries at a range of about 200 feet, all the charges and wires being automatically connected one with another, the result of the process being that the huge bulk of the tower, after belly ing, so to 'peek, inwards and outwards, falls with a heavy rumbling mood without scattering the materials, or coca monies danger, with a dead weight level to the ground. The height of the towers is 70 feet, by 40 feet in circomfereeirs ; the thickness of the walls being six feet at the base, and an average of upwards of five feet angle, the total weight of each tower being 150 toes. In displacing sums of the side walls last week the charge, were so nicely proportioned to the material to be removed that only a few bricks were flung about 30 feet from the spot, the masa of the debris felling with a dull, dead pound. it is exrected that it will be a mouth before the towers in Priem Albert's-road and the grand entrance in the Cromwell-►oed are removed. TEE Sorra/ay BEELEa IN Lyralt/own—The Southern Bazaar, which opals today in Liverpool, has milisted a large amount of sympathy, both local and foreign. ::übscriptioos to the amount of 7,500 f. are already au notuioed, and contributions from all parts of the United Kingdom, New York, Paris, Roma.

As the "laptimate" main sego. draw, to • elate, the gatherings at Hyde-park-corner see always more numerously managed thee at any other period of the year after Good wood. This may be accounted for from the fact that the Cesarewitch, the greatest of the autumn handicaps, arias a heavy settling, added to which, the Cambridgeshire, which comes off within a fortnight after, necessitates • large amount of speculation. The former line of business always takes precedence, and it generally happens that the dense crowds and the difficulty of looomotioo prolong the settling mush beyond the time necessary were there no such difficulties in the way. All it is, however, the fatigues of an important settling Sr. of themedves quite sufficient for a day, and many who came with the intention of combining book making or backing with the squaring of accounts, are obliged to leave with even the latter but partially completed. Such mu the use today, and although the subjoined list of quo tation may be suppo.ed to represent the available mousy in the market, it falls short of what might have been done had time allowed. The "differences" on the Ceeareiritch, so far as they went, appeared to be settled very amicably, and no complaints—at least of a radical nature—were heard; the only whisper in the dope of discontent that fell upon our ear being that those who bad to " part " would come " a little quicker." The favourite for the Cambridgeshire showed no signs of being diaplaoed, although not backed (or a great deal of money, while Brick and Stockier/sr were is great force at their reepective prima.

The owner of the favourite, too, determined to have two strings to has bow, took one big bet of 10,000 to 100 about Battaglia —a transaction which was a sort of poser to the few who were within ear-shot, all of whom dispersed, evi dently wondering what to make of it. The Derby wee slightly touched upoo, but nothing wee doe, worth chro nicling, except that 1,000 to 30 was laid four times against Oppressor, and the same price twice against Zambezi, while 40 **fifties" were also booked about Longdown, although the latter rallied slightly towards the finish , 33 to 1 being the highest o ff er.

TO Tall ISDITOS OP TEI 1:1711186. Sut,—We had a further illustration of the supe riority of this year's crack three-year-elds at the late New merket meeting, when one of the second class division, Ackworth, ran third for the Cesarewitch with 7st oo its beck, and the Oaks ye:Arena, Fills de l'Air, made such a sorry exhibition of three of Baron Rothachild's useful fillies, Been" Evelina, mad Tomato, is addition to Mail Mode and Claremont, wise all received weight from her, except Tomato. The two events she carried off, the Newmarket Oaks and Derby, added greatly to the prestige of the meet isg, as did likewise the match betweeu General Peel and Cautheeron, who ran so closely is the St. Leger. The result of their contest across the flat afforded • striking nastier* of what difference two pounds will make between horses, mad the head General Peel defeated Canthuscan• by at Dosimeter was changed into a half-length defeat when be attempted to give that amount of weight away. But no extras seem to stop the French filly just now, who would be • fitting match for Blair Athol did their owners pompom sufficient love for the "sport" to bring them to gether. There are few such sportsmen, however, as Lord Glasgow, who gave away the 215 for the porous of getting the match sou with Cambuscan, and was perfectly satisfied at his defeat, which proved there was no mistake is either the St. Leger or Derby running ; but it did not deter his lordahi nevartheleni, from carrying out his intention of diemiseiug both his trainer and jockey, sod thus sever all oonneetiou with certain Playable wbo have bees so busy with his hones for the last two year, when ever they were engaged, for allowing they bad fair play, the market proceedings in coonexion with them were not play , what the public generally expect when " gentleman's bones" are rusting. There were several other matches I besides that between the General and Cam bump, but DOOB at them were of important*, and my summary of the week's doings need mot extend to any great length . when only the : rreances of Gladiatenr, joker, Laing, Bedminster, and ..do en had any material influence as next year's Derby. Not one of this lot took high honours, =lsm it was Bedminster, who won his two races very easily, sod rendered very short-lived the renown of the French-bred Glaslisteur, who in the Prouder gut could do no more than run about " upsides" with Siberia, Gs:devisors, Colmar, and Loegdown. Both be sad the List-named had 31b the best of the weights with Garde visors, who was at least 10lb behind Lidilingtou at Ascot ; and thus the whole lot above sawed may be din:aimed front the Derby, with the exception of Bednithstar, for Garde visors giving K.rnig equal to 7lb in the Troy Stakes nut him to a length, and was not beaten nearly so easily as she was by Bedminster. Joker will, perhaps, improve with time ; but for Glitiliateur, who beat him in the Glee:well, little can be amid in favour, so far as his future career is cioncerned, for he has leg that will hardly allow of his being trained for the Derby. There can now be no doubt that Bedminster was not himself at Doti outer, where ha was such • wretched " third beet" to Gatd•Villtlfll . l wood and for the Champagne, sod the lstser's 91b penalty only partly accounted for such a turning of the tables, him nay overthrow of Brindisa over the Itratil Stakes course being another bright feather in his cap. What the Cambridgeshire horses did at the meeting is a subject of more immediate importance than the Derby ; and the uneatiafectory finish for the Cesarewitch will render it rubor more awkward than usual to discuss. There are , different cliques who assert that the second, third, and fourth "ought to have wan , " the bolting of Mail Train being the excuse for him, and the jockeys of Gratitude and Aekworth are both blamed. It is certain that Thalestris was more deed beaten than any no. of the three, for only the jockeys of Gratitudiaod Ackworth were tiring, and Mail Train, when Adam got him straight, finished with the steam full on ; but the "god thing" in the latter wan not to some off this time, and it was almost like • retribution when Mail Train, after being " shouted " so ruby times because his party were not in • batty, should " shout " on his own account the very first time be was asked to travel express all the way. Noose can sympathise with his de- feated friends, owing to the tricks they played, Dot only to throw dust into the eyes of the handicapper on the eve of the publication of the weigbm, bat to get all the money and " stall off " the public ; and genthimed who have to put weight ou him in future are not likely to give them another chance for some time, for no one could be deceived by the ridiculous figure he cut on Friday. He might of noncan be a rogue, and ha would not be the first on. made through being saved too long, but his sterling quality there can be no mistake about. His bedtime took Ackworth a little out of Lis track, and hail Cianou steadied the latter a couple of hundred judo from home, where Gratitude wanted the " jediciorie pull" likewise, it is in the cards that Tbelestris would only have been third at the finish. That Gratitude should have won there are scarcely two opinion, for, ridden without whip or spur, she was only beaten is the last stride by "two beads" (those of Thaleetris and J. Orimshawl, Carroll leaving off riding, either from weakness or en ides that be bad won. His going back to weigh with an impression be had woe will favour the latter supposition, and Lord Coventry'. lucky star was nodoubtedly in the sscendant, for Tbalestris, improved as 'heresy be, is the most moderate of four-year-olds, when Ackworth could run her so clue with some two dose° cods d er, a isa d d n va w e h tze s tth m e weig eet, itte.thGeregmodberii:ivziralitt li i many of the seventeen that were behind her on Tuesday last on wore terms she may not fare quite so well.

SHOCKING MCII.DeIi Kant WINDSOR—A very barbarous murder has just been discovered at Sunabighill wk, the seat of Mr. P. H. Ceutaley, near Ascot. On Saturday afternoon a carrier, nam e d Kentish, called about half- t five o'clock at a lodge near the road leadin S for the purpose of leaving some papery. This lodge was kept by as old woman named Butler, who woe about 70 veers of age. Os Kentish opening de door and entering tie lodge he was much surprised and horrified to find the old women sitting on the floor near the entrance with her heed covered with wounds and streaming with blood. On the earner making her what was the matter, she was just able to utter a few exclamations of pain, and became insensible. Kentish hastened to the adjacent farm for orderable, and Dr. Hewitt, of Winkfield, was Immediately sent for, but the poor old woman had expired from the dreadful nature of the injuries she had received. Thee* were three frightful cuts on the back sad two on the top of the head. They had evidently been inflicted with some blunt instrument, as the cap which Mrs. Butler wore had not been cut through. Sergeant Mansell, on receiving notice of the murder, sent for Inspector Reece and Superintendent Irenioager, of the Berke constabulary, who immediately went to the lodge and minutely searched the premises in the hops of finding some trams which might lead to the arrest of the murderer. By the side of the body of the victim was found a bunch of four keys, mid a seal engraved with the letter " G." The poor old woman, who was in the receipt of parish relief, bed a lodger, • labouring man. This man gave a satisfactory ac count of himself during the day, he, in fact, being out at work at the time the barbarous deed was perpetrated. As Mrs. Butler was in very poor circumstances it is thought the murder has been committed from motives' of malice and not of plunder. Inspector Reece and Superintendent Ira monger remained ape the premiss during the whole of Saturday night, and from their inquiries suspicion has been thrown upon a tramp who eras aeon in the neighbourhood daring the day, and who is said to have insulted several persons who refused to give him alms. IIiGITLAIt Cass or Potamirao.—Yesterclay an inquiry was held by Dr. Lankester, at the Green Mac Tavern, Finchley-common, relative to the death of Emily Ancient, aged three yews, who died through eating yew tree berries in Fieekley Cemetery. It appeared that the deceased was the daughter of the gardener to the afore mentioned cemetery, sad on Wednesday last she was with her mother in the groups's, and was observed by the father to eat one or two of the berries from an Irish yew tree, but he then thought nothing of the circumstance. Shortly af terwards the mothered child went home and had tea, when the child was taken with • kind of faintnesa. The mother gave her • small quantity of brandy and other restoratives which seemed to recover her, and she was then put to bed ; a dose of castor oil being administered. The deceased, however, relapsed into her former alarming state when medical assistance was sent for, bat in the meantime death ensued.—Mr. John White, tarpon, deposed to being sent for to the deceased about half-pest seven on Wednesday evening last, when he found her dead. The postmortem examination plainly proved that death was the result of poison. Is the stomach he found some partly digested yew-tree berriee—from 20 to 50. He pro. duoed some of the seeds, but many of them bad peened Into the intestines. The busks sad seeds were nohow:am, but not the flashy part of the berry. The stomach and istee tines were patched and inflamed, showing the irritative settee of poison, which was caused by the tree berries.— Tim Cormier remarked that this was a very import's. IN*, for yew trees were thickly pleated Is all the ostnet•- riga, and by the fact becoming known that the berries were poisosious, greater watch would be kept upon children by those who had them wider their care while visiting such gardens, and thereby • similar melasoboly inset be pre vented,—The jury returned a verdict of "Death by acci dental poisonieg." 1864. Ml 3 l - )V3L I ESEX SESSIONS. Richard Goddard, 19, and Janes Ward 20, airmen, were indicted for maliciously inflicting grievous bodily harm upon floury Spiking. Mr. Cooper (Instructed by Mr. Wositner) prosecuted; Mr. Collins (instructed by Mr. Abbott) defended the prisoners, who pleaded guilty to the indictment. The facts of this case presented some very atrocious con duct on the part of the prisoner. The prosecutor lived at Bath row, Deltic°, and was muter horsekeeper to Messrs. Waring, Brothers, contractors to the City branch of the North London Railway, and the prisoners were in their employ as cantles. The prosecutor had ocessiou to speak to them on the subject of their neglecting their work, and on Monday evening, the 26th of September, he met them is Dalston-lane with three carte, and he 'eked them where the driver of the other out was. They used some very vulgar language towards him and threatened to pull him off his horse. When they went to the yard, he handed to the prisoners their discharge tickets and an order to receive their money. Ward wanted to know what the ;Japer was ; and the prosecutor told hlm that It was his discharge, upon which both the prisoners collared him and began striking him, and • strip& awned which lasted for about ten minutes, during which they threatened to kill him. The prosecutor at length made hi tempo and got into the kitchen of his own house • but even here he was followed by the prisoners. He to ok up a poker to futon the doer with it, but the prisoners burst open the door and took the poker from him. Seeing the deadly aseault they intended he made his second escape, when he was followed again by the prisoners, who struck him with the poker, and he fell down insensible, and be remembered no more what was dose to him, but on recovering his C 01306011110001 he found himself in bed, at his own home, wounded all over, and blood running from his legs, ears, and the back part of hie head. The As said he et with a more de liberately or 'sore aggravated case than this, for here the prosecutor was knocked down ; be naturally attempted to defend himself in the best way be could, but the prisoners took hold of the poker and struck him on the bead with it, and it wax • great mercy that he war not killed, and it wee only through his having a strong constitution that his life was saved. Not content with that, they gave him further punishment, and the court would cot be doing its duty if it did not pass a severe sentence upon them as a warning to others. The sentence of the court upon them was that they be each imprisoned sad kept to bard labour for two VMS. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-HOUSE Mr. Oscar BrAnwwwappaared later y before Mr. Alder man Caner, who wee sitting for the Lord Mayor, in answer to a summons taken out spinet him by Mr. Montague Lamson, a solicitor, in Bishopegste, charging him with an IClVontner. append for the defendant ; and Mr. Lever. eon conducted his own cue. The case arose out of a summoes which was heard at this court some few weeks back, in which one Gustave Stores was charged with usijuy, the alleged offence having been contained in an 'Mont made by Steven. in which he swore that a Mr. Frankenstein, who wee then about effect ing a composition with hie creditors, was about to leave the country. It will be remembered that the affidavit was made in the of los of Mr. Levenson, and Mr. Bredlaugli, his managing clerk, together with Mr. Bailey, were summoned, charged with suborniag Sloven to commit the perjury, and the present defendant wee a witness for the prosecution in that eau. The chugs. however, fell to the ground. and according to Mr. Levenson's statement and the evidence he gave on oath it appeared that since that time he had bees subjected on several occasions to abuse from Mr. Hohmann, and on the 12th inst. be was in the refresh ment room at !'creep's, and having partaken of what be re. (*red he was about to pay for it, whom the defendant, who was sitting at one of the tables, abused kim, of which he took no notice. The defendant took hold of him by the coat, sod tore it, and afterwards struck him a blow on the back of the seek. He asked the waiter to fetch a policeman, but as he did not, be went down stairs to the manager, and returned with him up stairs, when the defendant again Loaded him sod scratched his face in two places, and made several kicks at him, but owing to his jumping back they did not hurt him. __ la answer to Mr. Wontimr, the complainant said he re ceived a letter from him (Mr. Weenier) on the MOM Sep tember. The letter was put in and reed, the purport of which was to ask Mr. Levenoo whether the following pare r/ph, which had appeared in several of the German papers • The English crown solicitor, Mr. Montague Leversoo, has informed us that ow Oscar Hohmann, there together with one Simpson. has been 000deamed to swim yeem' hard labour fur swindling goods from the Continent under Misname of Dunbar and Co."—had ben written by his (Mr. Levonon's) direction or authority ? The letter pro duced was his reply to that of ab.. Wontner's, which wee to the effect, that out of courtry Mr. Lever soo answered Mr. Weather's letter, but he declined to have any communication upon the cooteets of it. Hs made no such omomunication no the Berlin suthorities as that mentioned in the paragraph alluded to, nor had ha emit any such communication to any ma. He had sent a oom munioatioo to the Berlin police. He had not called himself the crown micitor. He would tell what his communica tion to the polies at Berlin was. After Heimann had given evidence in the case against Stoves he applied to the German police to know something of his antecedents. He informed the Berlin polio" that the " Long firm " in this city who were trying to obtain goods from the Continent were tr i Ltli2 of under the firm Dasher and Co., and that • person JUDOS Adolphus Simpson had been condemned to seven years' hard labour by a tribunal in Paris for forgery, and be informed them that Omer Ruhmaan had given evidence in • caw, and it was important for him to know something of his antecedents, as Stoves had bees " planted " on his managing clerk by Simpson. His managing clerk had dose something for a Mr. Lows. He had not received mousy from Mr. Lowe to settle a claim, and had not done so. Mr. Lowe had not been unable to get back his money. He was not "out of the way " for some time. He was away from business during a severe illness. His hotel bill at Torin wen not yet nomad- He had stayed at an hotel in Twin and had paid his bilL He had had businesa with Simpson. The witness here said he would tell all he knew of Simpson if Mr. Wostuer wished. Mr. Wanner, however, said be had said rather more than was discreet about Mr. Simpson already. In ernitisuaboo of the cross-examination, Mr. Leverson mid the paragraph alluded to was certainly inserted without his authority. if. had DOI mot each a oommunication, or empowered anyone else to do so. Mr. Leversou called a witness, who in a massive corny. boasted what he had stated with regard to tha assault an Yuman* and be on crossmandeation by Mr. Woman., said be Mr. Lemnos say Mr. Rubinson was wanted for for gery ; but that wee after he had taken hold of Mr. Lever eon's coat, After that the defendant became very envy, and made a kick at him and scratched his few. Mr. Wolin:air, on behalf of the defendant, said there were certain iodignities which me might sutler of which the laws of this country could take no cogs as in this case, where a most scandalous and infamous li I was published in a foreign country against a gentleman residing in Erg. laud, and he had no redress, as the English law had no jurisdiction. Bemuse Mr. Hillmans had had the misfortune to appear as a witness for the mown in a case against Mr. Location's managing clerk, this false and malicious para graph alluded to had gone the round of the German papers, and it certainly distinctly stated that the information was derived from Mr. Montague Lemma, of London. Mr. Alderman Carter mid there was no proof that Mr. Lemma had anything to with it, and he denied having sent it or authorised it. Mr. Wormer acquiesced in this, but he said that if that were so, when he wrote to Mr. Levereon asking him if he had ataborised it, if be had not dose ea he anticipated that the proper mom would have hese to have unit back such as explanation as *se ges gismo would do toaeother. instead of which be had written in reply a moat eouidalous letter, stating that out of courtesy he replied to his favour, bit de clined to eater into aoy explanation of the matter contained therein, which he certainly could not help saying was any thing but a gentlemanly manner for • gentleman who was • solicitor to answer another of the same profession. Mr. Rah mane, seeing inch a paragraph circulated in the pepsin in his own country, where all his friends were, was naturally very indignant, and sought an explanation through him (Mr. Woollier), and upon receiving such • reply he did the wily thing he could do, the English courts hawing no jurisdiction, took Mr. Levinson by the coat in • public plane and gave him a good shaking, and so mule him suffer an indignity in that way. Be was sure the alderman would agree with him that the provocation was very great, the greatest any man could possibly receive, and when added to that Mr. Leversoo had, as was agreed to by his own witness, called him a forger, his temper very naturally got the better of him, and he kicked at him. Mr. Alderman Carter mud, as far as the facts of the osse wenhe paragraph was certainly a very great provocation. Still. Ruhtnann was not juatitied in taking the law into his owe hands, and there was, 1110TOOVIf, no absolute proof that the complainant had produced that paragraph, and he himself iietirely denied having does so. He was always willing to make some allowance for foreigners, as they were perhaps sot well acquainted with the English laws, and disposed to be !select to them ; but 10 the same time he would not allow them, foreigners though they might be, to take the law into their own betide, and commit a breech of the peace inch as the defendant had bees guilty of. Be had committed an assault upon the complainant, and he should bind him over, himself in ICOI. and two sureties in fill). each, to keep the peace for the 'woof six mouths. BOW -STREET. Two soldiers in the Midstream Guards, named Stereo Spester sod Philip Pewter*, were brought up ia custody of Sergemt Engels., 58 A, cdtarged with having committed a rape on s young girl named Hannah Birdsey, girl under 15 years of age.

Stephen Henry Capon, • carman in the employ tf Messrs. Chaplin and Home. railway carriers, was plead st the bar before Mr. Burcham, charged with stealing • large quantity of oysters from the van while proceeding to the South Eastern Goods department, Bricklayers' Arms station. The oysters were the property of • company, and litrd being carried to a place near Kingston for breeding purposes, as an experiment. They were therefore unfit for eating. Henry Deeps, • memenger in the City Sewers-office, said that on Friday arming he was passing alonz the Grange-road, Bermondsey, when he saw one a Chaplin and Horne's vans, driven by • lad, laden with bags of oyster'. He turned round sod perceived the prisoner on the top of the load opening some of the hags and secreting them in • large sack which be afterwards conceded at the bottom of the van. Witness followed him to the Bricklayers' Arms station, when he told one of the railway officials what he bad seen. The Ate-keeper of the Bricklayers' Arms station said he received information from last witness, and as the prisoner was leaving the yard be banded witness as "empty card" to pant. Witness stopped him and found under sore taupaulin a sack containing a large quantity of oysters. He then examined the bags the prisoner had left and he per ceived they bad been opened. Be consequently called the attention of the superintendent, who gave the prisoner into custody. The prisoner, on being cautioned by Hr. Burcham. mid that heinnfortunately took the oysters for bia own eating, but he assured his worship that it was his tint °deuce. Edward Francis, one of the foremen rn tLe employ cf Messrs. Chaplin and Horne, said the prisoner had beet is their service twelve months as carman, and be bore an ex. collect character for honesty and sobriety. He had a wife and family to maintain. Mr. Burcham observed that the offence be had committed wee a very serious one, and had the prisoner not been de tected some of the company's servants would have been ins. petted, and most likely Innocent men thrown out of employment. He should not inflict the full penalty of the law, but he sentenced the prisoner to four months' hard laboar at Wandsworth. MARKETS. LONDON WEEKLY DOCK IMport4.l 800.0.—W.
