T IL NOTES OF PREPARATION FROM RUSSIA. RERUN. Arau, 23. 1 Private letters received here yesterday from St. Petersburg state that the appearance of that city de notes the activity displayed for th e ener g etic eon -I)tinuance of the war. The Czar devotes his whole time and attention to the military preparations that are going on. Prince Dolgoronky and General Roe towzow are daily sent for several times by the Em peror. Count Riiliger is also often seen hurrying to the Winter Palace. The towns and villages &tumid swarm with soldiers of the militia, clothed in their half military dresses. On their caps they wear a cross, underneath are the words, in Russian, "For Religion and the Czar." The whole of the extensive territory of Bessarabia, and the provinces of Kiew, Podolia, and Cherson, are placed under the supreme military authority of Ge neral Liiaers, hitherto provisionally commander-in chief of the army of the south. General Luders is at this moment at Kitcheneff. Letters from Riga confi the arrival of the ad vanced guard of the Asia tic hordes, who cannot be prevailed upon to sleep . in the houses or barracks prepared for their reception, under the impression of danger should an earthquake take place. They have, therefore, obtained permission to picket their horses round the churches and bivouac themselves in the open air, making use of their horse's neck as their pillow. They are described u a most thieving race, nothing being secure from their depredations, especially all articles of brass, tin, or copper, the polished surface of which excites their cupidity.

Watson, R.N., commanding a squadron of her Majesty's ships in the Baltic, dated " Her Majesty's ship Impineuse, off Libso, 19. h April, 1865," to the effect that on and from the 17th day of April, 1855, and in the name of her Majesty sad of her Ally, his Majesty Napoleon 111., Emperor of the French, the Russian port of Libau, on the coast of Courland, was plated in a state of strict blockade by a eom patent force of her Majesty's ships and vessels ; and that on aid from the 16th April, 1866, all Russian ports, roads, haven+ and crooks, from latitude 65 deg. 64 min. north, longitude 21 deg. 5 min. east, to the Filsand Lighthouse, in latitude 68 deg. 26 min. north, longitude 21 deg. 50 min. cast (including especially the ports of Btekenbaus, Wia. data, and the entrance to the Gulf of Riga), ware alsJ placed in a state of strict blockade, by a competent force ; and it is hereby notified that all the measures authorised by tte laws of nations, sad the respective treaties between her Majesty and her Allies with the different neutral powers, will be adopted and 'muted with respect to all stases which may attempt to violate the said blockade. THE GREEKS AT The French and English reports of the night sorties of March last made frequent mention of warriors in Greek costume fighting on the Itossian side. The leader of those meo, who firm a free corps, is Aristides Christorerl, a native of Messembria, on the Black Sea coast. When a boy he was taken to Odessa and educated at the commercial school there. When a youog man be forsook commercial pursuits to take part la the war of Greek independence, and from that time served in Greece until 1854. Last summer, when It became plain that the allies would sot allow Greece to be made the basis of clandestine operations against Turkey, Christoveri with many other Greeks made for Bessarabia. He was decorated by the late Cu, with the order of St. Anne. MEMORIAL TO SIR GEORGE GREY, BART., M P SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT, IN FAVOUR OF LU[OI BURA NELLI.

THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 28, 1855. cHmars HOSPITAL. TO TIM 1017011 07 TOO OMIT WIWI. Sin —A very important meeting of Governors is to take place at Christ's Hospital on Tuesday next, May 1, to decide upon the report of the select com mittee, upon which all hope of improvement In that institution at present depends. The Committee of Almoners !twin data warp thing that they coula to it'oetruot and °ppm ills psi work, ate now leaving no stone unturned to stultify the governors at large, and to confirm themselves in Weir quasi-irresponsible power. Among other means they have issued an "Address of the undersigned (25) members of the Committee of Almoners to the Governors of Christ's Hospital; in which they attempt to upset the report of the select committee, and to show that t he school is in an abominable condition, &c. I wish I could send you a copy of this precious document, which contains little else but arguments which cut their own throats, or roes misrepresenta tions of facts. I have endeavoured in vain to get a copy to put into your hands, bat perhaps you may be able to procure one from some governor ; and if you could find room to print the main portion of it, as you did the Report of the Select Committee, you would gra tify the curiosity of many, while some remarks upon its contents would do good service to the cause. I would particularly call your attention to the follow ing paragraph in page 3 of this address :—" The Committee of Almoners cannot pass from this part of the report without noticing the description of the education stated by the upper grammar master to be given in the school ; and they beg to recil to the recollection of the governors the disturbed state of the school for the 12 months previous to Dr. Jacob's entering upon his duties as upper grammar muter, arising from the failing health and sudden death of Dr. Rice ; the prevalence of scarlet fever amongst the boys ; the death from that disorder of the Rev. Mr. Collingwood, another of the masters ; and the consequent breaking up of the school for the unusually long period of three months: whim it is added that Dr. Jacob's first exami nation was commenced within three weeks of the reopening of the school after that vacation — I that the boys were subjected to four set examina tions within nine months, for which very little pre vious reparation was allowed, and which were con ducted by a muter wholly sew to them—and that almost all the books used in the school (including the Greek Grammar) were changed during that period, on Dr. Jacob's advice, the Committee of Almoners could not help feeling that much allowance was to be made both for the masters and the scholars under these difficulties ; and they have therefore much satis faction in laying before the Governors the reports of the gentlemen who conducted the examination of the several schools in November last, which are appended to this address." The whole of this paragraph is a tissue of absur dit and misrepresentation throughout. How could the failing health and death of Dr. Rice so greatly affect the Lower School, which he never examined, or in any way superintended? Do the committee mean that during these twelve months the other masters were neglecting their duties, and teaching the boys nothing? What an absurdity is it to talk of the boys being "subjected to Lux set examinations." Does the fact that Dr. Jacob exa mined them several times, and took pains with his examination., and endeavoured to ascertain what the boys really did know—make his reports less worthy of credit? Tho committee seem to approve of no examinations but those which are superficial, care less, and hasty. But it is asserted that " very little previous pre paration was allowed." Who prevented this pre paration P The boys were examined in the lemons which they had previously learned and said to their respective masters. Did these masters teach them nothing during all this time? Do the committee mean to make a desperate attack upon the masters of the Lower School? For, according to their account, the boys learned and the masters taught little or nothing for nearly two years. If they do not mean this, then the only alternative is that they blame Dr. Jacob for discouraging the false and dis graceful system of cramming and humbug which prevailed in the classical examinations at Christ's Hospital before he came. What a gross inconsistency again is involved in the assertion that Dr. Jacob was " it master wholly new to them," when just before they complained that he had examined them so often. Yet Dr. Jacob, for sooth, who was living amongst them day after day, was a stranger compared with Dr. Major, whom they bad not seen for a year and a half, when he examined them in November last, and who had never examined them but once before. There really is no end to the ridiculous absurdities of these men. Bat the declaration that " almost all the books used in the school had been changed by Dr. Jacob's advice," is something more than an absurdity—it is a gross mis-statement. A new Greek Grammar for the Lower School was intro duced at Easter, 1851; and this could in no way affect any examination but that of the Mid summer following. With this exception, not a single new book connected with the classical exa mination, either was or has been introduced into either of the two highest or the two lowest classes—i.e., more than two-thirds of the Lower School. It is evident that these almoners will stick at nothing in their mad attempts to throw dust in the eyes of the governors. On look. ing at the report of Dr. Major, given in the appen dix, and referred to with so much satisfaction by the committee, it appears that the worthy doctor consi dered himself to be entraining the masters more than the boys. He endeavours to exculpate the masters, by pleading in their behalf that, under all circum stances, "as much is effected by them in extent and accuracy of classical instruction as could reasonably be expected." But what is the extent and accuracy of the boys' knowledge he prudently forbears to tell. Dr. Major evidently knows how to cater for the almoners' taste far better than Dr. Jacob, who in his simplicity imagined that it was his duty to state plainly what the boys did or did not know, and thus brought upon himself the wrath of the committee. Again, Dr. Major evidently did not think it right to subject the boys to a set examination, as Dr. Jacob was foolish enough to do, bat got over in a day what the latter, poor man, took the greater part of a week to accomplish. On the 9th of November Dr. Major examined no less than eight classes, each class bringing up two subjects for exa mination—a Greek and a Latin book—and each book requiring, with such large classes, at the very least an hour for anything like a bonafide examination. This would have made 16 hours' hard work for the doctor, besides all the time requisite for shit dug the classes, &c. But it was all got through in one day. Pro bably the examination may have been conducted something on the plan of the Lord Mayor's show, which was going on at the time—so the ground was soon got over, to the equal satisfaction of the boys and the committee. Yet this is the report on which the almoners rely to overthrow the careful, detailed, and we 11-considered communications of their upper grammar toaster. I will not trespass on your time by dwelling upon many other parts of this address, which invite remark by their weakness or mis-statements. But there is one point alluded to in page 12, to which I must call your attention. I should like to ask the almoners what they mean by saying that "they consulted, as a matter of course, the upper grammar master, with reference to the promotion of the under grammar masters." When did they ever ask Dr. Jacob's advice in this matter? The fact is, that whenever a vacancy in the under mastership has occurred, the master next below has bccu, as a matter of course, recommended by the committee sad appointed by the court. The committee further &b re that "they return to the court the names of oil saudidates (for mastershipt) to whom there does sot appear to be any positive objection." If this be I so, why did they reject the name of the Rev. G. H. Stevens from the list of candidates last August P What " positive objection" did there appear to be against that gentleman, who had actually been in the service of the hor'tal for nearly a year, and who (if I am rightly informed) diatith qui lit d himsel, greatly for his talents, skill, burgess in tea *.ing, and admirable power in " influencing boys for good ?" The governors would do well to .resist upon the particulars of Mr. Stevens's case being laid before them—thr y will display in pretty strong oolours the rinciples ard practice of the almoners whose addr,..: 3 will, I trust, have no other effect bat that of opening the eyes of the governors at barge still Tider to the real state of the case, and bringing thorn in hap numbers to the court on Tuesday next, to support the select committee and the oasis of re formation. Q. THE ARMY BEFORE MR. ROEBUCK'S COMMITTEE. Yesterday, on the nraesembling of the committee, the room was cleared, sad how. ambers remained is de liberation for about half an hour, bat upon what topic did not tramples. Captain Decree, in command of the Sammiell hem Jane le November, was the first witness. Hs said he went to bras and Bilaklan with his vowel, and was present at the embarkation of the troops at 'Varna. It would have been better to have had more large boats for Undies the horses. These were to be had at Constantinople, and Admiral Lyons towed up • large number, but pester provision ought to have been made. If the army had bad to have embarked a month earlier, he did not think they had sal• elect means to have done it. The Freon boats ware ter. but not better. No time wee lost in anbukation, sod no loss of life occurred. There was only one hens het. personally attended the embarkation. The bests were net inn for - the purpose, and in heavy swells were destroyed. The sailors brought down all the wounded after Mess from the field, four miles off, and witness went there with his shies company, and offered to bring down the sisk and wounded. He did not know what would have been the esnacquenes if the sailors had not been there to do this, for there were no ambulances, and only country arm The navy provided hammocks, snspended to oar., to carry the Wounded down. The French bad all their wounded down ea the night of the battle, by means of mules, but ours did not come down entirely until two days a fter. The wounded English were packed two or three in a cart. He meld not speak u to the humanity of the method, but the army made use of the best means they bad to perform the process. Some of the country carts were without springs, but the wounded were not placed like sacks on one another, though the cholera patients were. The navy officers and medical men cane down and exhibited great anxiety for the wounded, who were transported to the ships where every care was taken of them. Then was no special hospital ship fitted up for them. Heard of signals of Wanes', but did not see them from any of the ships. The cholera patients were brought down three days after Alma. Witness went to Bataklava with the guns for the siege trout, and Ant took the command of the harbour on the 27th of Octo ber. Orders had been given for the vessels to evacuate the harbour, but they came back a few days after to the extent of 60 or 70 sail. The orders to evacuate were given by Admiral Mind's, and after that time he (Caps. Decree) wu responsible for the state of the harbour. On the day of the gale there were several corpses in the harbour, which he ordered to be blond directly, and he sent two bullocks out to sea. The statements about the coadition of the harbour made to the committee were exaggerated, and although he was ill, he never gave in ; but the harbour was effectu ally cleared while he was there. There wu a great difference of opinion as to the but way of anchoring the vessels, and many wished to lay with their beads outside the harbour, and others inside. He recommended the captain of the Resolute not to lay out side, and told him if he went to sea he would be quite safe. There were only three tugs to do the work of all the tran sports. It was thought dangerous to bring the Pans. which was lost, into the harbour, on account of her emtnelln length, and she had no more business, in witness's °pink*, to anchor where she did than she had to fly. She lost ten anchors, and ought to have gone to sea after that. A large number of transports had come from Eupatoria with sheep and bullocks, and suffered greatly from the gale. Many of the vessels were obliged to remain outside the harbour be cause those inside could not ;get out. There was a great difficulty in clearing the harbour, as the ships that came with bay and bread came without ,ballast, and had to fill again with ballast before they went away. The commissariat supplied forty men from Malta to assist in unloading the transports. Some of the men worked uncom monly well, bat other, were constantly on strike. Three wharfs were erected, and much more would have been done bad it been known they were going to stay there; but he did not think there were ten men in the army who thought they were going to take Sebastopol. (A laugh.) The Turks had possession of Bataklava et.that time, and every house was occupied by dead and dying Turks. Their condition was wretched, and he did not an any provision made for them. The soldiers jeered and laughed at the Turks, and treated them in an insulting way, but truck them. The fleet was not in a proper state of coaling. Coals were short everywhere, and witness had only 14 tenon board the Sanspueil. The burial place in witness's opinion was badly placed. He never heard of any complaints about Captain Christie. There was no neglect in the way in which the sick and wounded were conveyed to the ships. Two steamers were specially fitted up with bedding, and where the vessels were not so fitted up, the sick and wounded were' obliged to lie down on the bare deck. The marine brigade on shore suffered a good deal, and 200 sick were sent down on one mule's. They Isere properly fed and kept, and did not work in the trenches, and they were probably the finest men England ever turned out. The cooking of the naval brigade camp was comfort. ably done, and they had fire places and ovens for the pur pose. The marine brigade, in witness's opinion, were a more intelligent class of men than the soldiers. Witness was notat Bataklava when it was represented to be a perfect cesspool. He understood Captain Christie wee an old gen tlemen of 70 ; and if it was imputed to Captain Christie that be would not let the Prince into the harbour, it wu mum. The Prince was the largest vessel they had there. He never in his time saw the harbour in the state Captain I Kellett described it—as being in a beastly state, full of offal, and no steps taken to bury the dead, or that the stench was intolerable; and Captain Kellett was a much el man than witness, if he could have cleared the harbour in seven days. (Laughter) Witness did not allow.the ships to remits in the harbour because it was so crowded, and Deviate, up to Nov, 17, when he left, there was an apprehension of an attack from the Russians. Winces had the general supervision of the harbour under Captain Christie, and witness ordered vessels cut, bat it rested with Capt. Christie and the commissariat to send them in, and whether they should stay outside or not. If they asked six sailors as to the best method of anchoring—three "mild probably anchor one way and three another. (Laughter.) The great error in coaling was in coaling in the current of the Golden Horn, but there was not any want of arrangement, and inconvenience in the coaling arms from the boats intended for coaling being taken by the expedition. The anchorage at Bataklava vu at all times dangerous, and witness looked upon the lose there as the act of God. What he meant by that was the tremendous hurricane that occurred. It was not prudent at that time of the year for vessels to anchor on that coast at all, and the gale began and varied in violence for &length of time before the hurri cane. The services of the navy surgeons were at first relused by the army, and there were more transports than were required, but he could not speak as to the use or manage ment of them. Captain Milne, one of the members of the Board of Ad miralty, in charge of the transport department, was then examined. He said that consequent on communications received from the Duke of Newcastle in February steps were taken for the transport of 609 officers, 10,000 men, 1,698 hones, with a tonnage of camp equipage of 750 tone, 860 tons of baggage, 909 toss of ordnance stores, and other army requirements of 1,088 tons. The t ra nsportdepartmett wrote to all the steam navigation companies in England requesting them to afford the meant of steam communication for the conveyance of the troops, and they were furnished with various vessels by several of them, the names of which the gallant captain enumerated. Twelve vessels sailed from this country be tween the 23rd February and the 20th March to the But, contaimag 339 officers, 9,084 men, 248 women, 60 children, and 50 horses. Under the Board of Admiralty he coasi doted himself responsible for the whole transport **rein down to the 20th February last, when the transport board eras organised. He had no doubt that the whole of the 'bliss employed in that service were taken up by the go vernment on the most advantageous terms ; and no ship was taken up until she had undergone a rigorous inspection by officers of the Admiralty. The superinten dence of the embarkation of the troops depended on the place when they were embarked ; but in all cases the em barkation wu superintended by Admiralty agents. It was the same with regard to stores. If • ship at any time war detained beyond 40 days at a place, then the owners came en the government for demurrage. That was in the cue of tassels taken up by the job, and not by time. In making , arrangements for the transport of the artillery, he laid it down as a principle from which he never departed, that 'the horses should never be separated from the trans, and the artillerymen from neither ; but that all should be trans ported tigether ; so that wherever each a ship arrived, the artillery she carried was complete in itself, as a part of the whole artillery service. Eighteen ships were used in carry lag on that service. The ships used for the transport set vice for horses were chiefly fitted up at Woolwich, under the superintendence of officers of the Ad miralty and several cavalry officers. Others were fitted' up at Liverpool. There was, he believed, an expedi tion sent out from this country where so few casualties occurred in the trans,:ort of the horses from accident or death. Out of 6,248 horses sent out the average loss w , under three per cent. That did not include the horses in the Black Sea, but had simply reference to the voyage between England and Constantinople. Tho Admiralty did not know Dr. Andrew Smith ; they reeelvea their instruc tions for the shipment of stores from the Board of Ord nance only, and the Admiralty found the ships. The stores were shipped under the superintendence of an agent of the Ordnance and the captain of the vessel in each case, and the responsibility of tarrying these stores to their destination was shared between the Ordnance agent and the captain of the ship. No part of It rested with the Admiralty. The ship which carried the medical stores out was not a transport ; she was freighted. No supercargo or' Admiralty agent was sent out with any of the transports . The captain of each ship was the supercargo, and he was responsible for the safe delivery of the stores. Captain Christie was appointed to the command of the transports la the Black Sea, and Admiral Boxer to the same service at Constantinople. Admiral Boxer was appointed by the First Lord of the Admiralty, and chiefly for his long sad useful services in the lest war, and in various parts of the British ouninions -u`o•cquently. The eolmiral was 68 or 69 yeas of age. N • cern; 'ants had ever been made to the Adak ',ley of Admiral Boxer • bat he was tanned from Con- I buntline's to Sikhism' the First Lord of the Admiralty on the ground of his not virg given satisfaction at C JD staatiaople. To the Chairman—Corolainte might have been made to the First Lied of the Admiralty without witness's know -111:111. Laprd—He was not aware of any complaints to **Admiralty of Captain Obeli*, except is reference to the lees oldie Prince and the Resolute; and in consequence , Of triplet ludo to the Admiralty by Sir E. Lyons on the , loss of those ships, Captain Christie had bun recalled and ' ordered to be tried by Gout-martial. The court-martiel had ' not yet taken plow He (witness) did not know exactly what the waste of the army were; bat, so far as he was aware, there was always as great • number of transports in ' the Black 81111 for the use of the enuoissary-general u were ! required fee the wants of the army. The commissary- ' gen eral sever made any requisition to the Admiralty for more transports. Up to the 23rd April the Admiralty had sent ' oat to Constantinople 111,448 tons of ooal and 4,178 tons of ' patent feel ; and to Malta, 69,123 tons dual and 3,639 tons of patutteel.With respect to Sir ILLyona, he rather thought that akar had a cede blereate from the First Lord of the Ad to purchase steam tags, or to do whatever he liked. He ensidered it a ggrreeat pity that the consolidation of the AM* of the Admiralty at Whitehall and Somerset house had tel takes plea years ago. The present gaunt tion of the Wises had tended greatly to embarrass and im pede the peeper nation of the department, and it would never be elbsewles until the baimes was conduesed under one roof. The Adestralty had been blamed for the way in which the traimpeet service had been carried on. He had on all oceadems ought to conduct that service to the best of his abft; bat it was at all times a difficult matter to obtain arig like a sufficient number of ships to carry on the souk*, though he had advertised for them at dif ferent times, and especially on great emergencies, in all the large seaport towuk i .in the kingdom. If captains of transports had taken out stores of their own on private speculation he had never heard of it. The thing had beet suggested to him, and he immediately issued stringent orders at all the outporta to prevent it; and he never had any ease brought under his notice in which such a transaction had actually occurred. He did not know of any complaint having been made to the Admiralty of the con duct of Captain Goodall in connexion with the loss of the Prince. To the Chairman—Bad Captain Goodell survived a court martial would have been instituted—not as • means in itself of censuring Captain Goodall, but with the view of ascer taining the exult circumstances under which the Prince was lest. To Lord Seymour—On one occasion Admiral Boxer wrote to the Admiralty, complaining of the great difficulty he had in obtaining a sufficient amount of labour for coal ing the transport ships at Constantinople. At Balaklavo i he believed, the ceiling was wholly carried on by means colliers. If any difficulty had been felt in obtaining ships to convey commissariat stores from Constantinople to Bala klava, as stated in his evidence by Commissary Smith, it was the duty of Hr. Filder, the Commissary -G e I, to have represented the circumstance to the Admiralty, through Loral Raglan, but he did not do so. , The witness was still under examination when the tom , mittee adjourned. OFFICER AND SOLDIER-THE WOOLWICH CASE. On Thursday Mr. Trail! was engaged a consider able time, at the Woolwich Police-court, in hearing a sum mons against Captain Green, of the Royal Artillery, taken out for assaulting Ann M'O's, wife of • bombardier in the same corps, the summons having been applied for and sub sequently granted under circumstances reported in the Daily News of the 13th instant. The complainant having been sworn, stated that on Thursday, the 12th instant, the defendant called at her hoses, 1, Idaryon-road, Charlton, and inquired for her linshead. She told him her husband was not at home ; on which defendant replied, "Itis • d—d lie," and asked why bar husband had not called on him the night previmuly. She replied he could not do so, as he was on duty. Defendant then went up-stairs to his sister-in-law's, Mrs. Bond, wife of Colonel Bond, and on coming down said he wanted to speak to her (complainant), and told her • cabman would come in a few minute', to take away the luggage of Mrs. Bond, who bad secupied apartments at her house, and owed rent. She told defendant the luggage could not be removed until the rent was paid ;on which defendant replied, "You be d—d, and the things too; they shall go, and I will stay here and see then away." Defendant then went up-stairs &second time, afterwards leaving the house for about five minutes and then returning. The door was then open, and on her en deavouring to shut it, defendant forced hie way in. She spin told him the things should not be removed until the rent was paid, and endeavoured to shut the door, when she was pushed away by defendant, and • men allowed to enter. When about half the things were removed, she again remonstrated, defendant still holding the door *pen. Defendant said it was because her husband was a soldier be acted so ; if he was a civilian be should be obliged to act differently. She told defend ant he was no gentleman for saying en; on which he let go hie hold of the door, took hold of her left arm with his right hand, and struck her with his left hand in the chest, knocking her backwards on the second step of the stairs. She had net used any violent language to defendant. When she told defendant he was no gentleman, be said " I have got the money in my pocket, but will not pay you, to annoy you." By Captain Green—You swore at me twice, previous to striking me. By Mr. Twill—The dispute about the rent arose from hire. Bond saying she was about leaving en the Thursday, when her husband said she si euld have to pay up to the follow ing Monday ; oa which Mrs. Bond replied, she would have her husband reported, and reduced to the ranks. Margaret Henahaw and Mary M'Gee, sister and sister-in law to complainant, gave confirmatory evidence, being pre sent at the time. Captain Green denied the assault, and called Polico•constable 119 11, who deposed that he met defend ant on the morning in question as he was returning from the doctor's, being on the sick list. Defendant d ' d wit ness to go with him to complainant's house, as he was about removing some goods and " expected a piece of work." Wit- Oise told defendant he could not act in the matter, but went with him to the house, and stood outside on the pavement. On defendant entering the house witness heard cogplainant my the things should not be taken away without the rent was paid. There were other words exchanged between complainant and defendant, but witness did not bear what they were. When the pods were being removed com plainant snatched the first parcel from defendant's servant. Defendant was holding the door the whole time the goods were being removed, and did not strike complainant so far as he saw. Thomas M'Neece, defendant's groom, deposed to being engaged in removing the goods, when complainant took a parcel from him. Witness told her his master bad ordered him to take the things away, and that he must obey his oeders. Did not 'observe his muter push or strike com plainant, but she endeavoured to push defendant from the door. In reply to Mr.Barwis, who appeared for the complainant, the witness stated that he was going in and out of the house at the time, and that anything might have occurred and he not have seen it. Hesekiah Foster, nurse to Mrs. Bond, was next called, and deposed to hearing the altercating, but denied that defendant had used the language imputed, or that he struck complainant, who was very violent, and pushed defendant. Witness told oemplainent it was shameful to act so, oa which she replied, " Yes ; and I will hurt you presently." In reply to Mr. Twill, the witness said the language stated might have been need by defendant and she not have heard it. She was preemie the whole time, excepting whet going up stairs to bring • box down ; but no blow was than struck is the passage, the (witness) looking over Mr shoul der, and must have seen it bad it occurred. Police-constable 119 was re-called, and stated that a female came out of the house 'end complained to him, when he told her defendant was a gentleman, that she knew where he lived, and that if the money was owing she knew where to find him. Captain Green said if complainant's husband had been at home nothing of the kind would have occurred. He de nied either using the language stated or striking t, whom Mrs. Bond had refused to reagaiso Mr.g iit ffl O in altdbeittr ti was c ansa lear an offence had been mites& lathe first instance in defendant placing himself in opposition to a right which the law gave to landlords. The law had recently been altered, and very properly, too, by the legislature, for the protection of females and it had been a question with him whether or not he ehould have to deal with the case under its provisions. He had felt it neces sary, however, before convicting and affixing such a disgrace on defendant, in his position to have all the evidence pos sible, and it appeared to hi m that complainant herself had acted. in a violent manner. He did not think that the strik ing, if striking it could be called, had taken place, but thought it more probable it bad resulted in an endeavour to push the door to, therefore be should not be compelled to visit the offence so severely as otherwise he should have done. The conduct of the constable he held to be highly re prehensible, and which would not be sanctioned by any ma gistrateouperintendent, or inspector of police. Under the circumstances he felt bound to inflict • penalty of 20s. end costs for the assault, in forcibly and illegally removing the ds. as I g The defendant, having paid the fine, left the court. lost SUPPLEMENTARY MAILS FOR THE CRIMEA.— OaxinAL PO4I , OPFICII, Aran., 1856.—1 n onsequesoe of the opening of the satire line of railway between Lyons and ldareeilles,the conveyance through Frame of the mails for the British forces in Greece, Turkey, and the Black Sea, will be so far accelerated as to allow of mails despatched from London on the mornings of Tuesday and Saturday (by day mail) reaching Marseilles, under ordinary cireumstances, in time for the French Mediterr packets leaving that port every Thursday and Monday.

THE POLICE COURT& MANSION-HOUSE. Thomas Tanner was charged with having obtaioed a gold watch mid gold chain, value 151. .51., under false and fraudulent pretences. Mr. Duncan appeared for the prose cution ; Mr. Parry for the Wen. e. Jacob Ansell, of Duke-street, Aldgate, jeweller, said—ln the latter end of February I saw the defendant in the long room at the Canons-house, where I took a note to him. He asked me if I did not deal in watches and jewellery. I said 1 did. He told me he wanted to buy a gold watch and gold chain for a gentleman of the name of Lemon, who 'held a situation in the Custom-house under her Majesty's commission. He said he could give me Mr. Lemon's bill of at:chimp and his blue receipt for his quarter's salary. The blue receipt was a voucher for the payment, and I eould go to the proper authorities and get that blue receipt marked. I agreed to let him have a watch and chain on Nose terms ; and on the Ist of March I saw him again in the loeg room, and we went into a public-house opposite, and I then produced the watch and chain in a box. He mid it would do, and then produced a bill of exchange fur 151.65., the amount which had been previously agreed upon. 1 said that would do, and then I wanted the blue receipt he had talked about. He said, "I can't give you the blue reotept now, for I must hand over the watch and chain to Mr. Lemon before I can ask him for his receipt." 1 then delivered to him the watch and chain, and asked when I should receive the receipt. He said, "Let it stand over till to-morrow morning at eleven o'clock, for I am very much engaged in my father's matters, and my time is not my own just now ;" and I agreed to do so. On the 2nd of March I went eg tin to him, to the Custom-house, and saw him, but could not get the receipt. In his cross-examination the witness said—l carry my shop in my pocket. The bill is not due yet, but my attor ney tells me the amount has been left at his office. I have never had dasher with any person in the Custom house before. Ido not hawk goods, nor have I a licence. I never go to any public office to solicit custom. I instructed a policeman to take the defendant into custody. I attempted to get the bill discounted by Mr. Whitburn, and told him that I had sold a watch and chain for it, and I would give him 16 shillings for the discount. I said the bill was accepted by a gentleman who held a high situation in her Majesty's Customs, and lived at Norwood. I have not had any complaint against me for attempting to pawn a chain as gold that was not gold. I know a Mn. Knlght. I did not send her to pawn a chain. I had a chain with me, and I offered to sell her the chain. It was a second head ohmic I asked 11. 6e. for it. She asked me to allow her to take it to a pawnbroker's, and I said she might, as I did not know the quality of the gold. I went to the pawnbroket's. They did not throw the chain on the ground, and say it was not worth a shilling. I can't recollect what the pawnbroker told Mrs. Knight. I can't recollect whether he told her it was not gold. I bought it amongst other things. I can't say when or where I bought it. I melted it up with other gold. I got it melted by a friend, whose DIM Ido not recollect. I can't recollect what other things were melted with it, or their value, or the time they were melted. I can't recollect whether the chain has been melted a month. Mr. S. H. Lemon, a clerk in the Custom-house, said—The acceptance to the bill is mine. I did aot authorise Mr. Tanner to purchase a watch or chain for me. lam not au thorised to give a blue receipt. I was short of money, and informed Mr. T , who offered to get a bill discounted. I accepted the bill, but have received no money. He did not mer tion Mr. Ansell's name to me, nor did I know any thing of a watch. Mr. Parry submitted that, supposing the evidence to be true, the circumstance did not amount in law to a crime or offence. He was sure that a jury would be very incredulous on the authority of the prosecutor's statement. Alderman Wire—The defendant is discharged.
