THE STORM OP TUESDAY NIGHT. LONDON AND ITS NEIGHBOtHHOOD. Some of the injuries caused in and about the me tropolis by the gale of Tuesday night, were emanated in yesterday 's Er t irese.

Toe roofs of several Masse on Squirt's. meant, and the ehinineye of nest of them, wore blown off. la the betknal.green. road the roof of a lame chapel now in mune of erection en the nevi' aide of the road, near the church, was literally ternsp by the wind and shattered to pieces. The budding, which is intended as ais eting-houee for the i Independents, s one of the largest of the kind in the part of Lenders. Unfortunately the damage is not toi hood to the roof, the telling debris having injured the lower portion of the interior. Had the event occurred a little later la the m ming, whea the workpeopls would have been busy about the structure, it is difficult to eonjew tare wtat roust have been the consequence. In the same neighbourhood many old tottering houses were polled down, 10 to to prevent their destruction oy the wind. In Pried strife:, P.eddingtos, several houses were an scowl, mid the inmates had narrow escapes. In Battersea hel Is a Isrde brick bundler was completely razed. In St. J atilee., Hyde, and the Regent's ',arks considerable havoc was e..miLitted amongst the pleatatioes, and several of the mw: state.; trees wire uprooted, as also in Keesington gardens.

She ran into the Dryad, another steamer belonging to the same company, and carried away her bulwarks. The river throughout the whole of the reach was covered with fragments of wreck, and, in fact, a greater amount of injury to shipping has Zeta been recorded. Along the whole line cf the South Western Railway many of the eon and flay richt belonging to the various farmers sou the line were blown away, but last night an occurrence took place, which, bad it not been for the opportune discovery, would, uoub:k's, have been attended with • frightful lees of life.

The tuella storm whir commenced hit night wu prcductiv.: of some serious consequences in this neighbour hood as well as elsewhere. It is undoubtedly one of the heaviest gales we have had kers slur 1839. In Manchester the damage has been principally 'Gadded to blowing down stacks of chimneys end unroofing buildings. The top of the Crown and Anchor puMic-house, Cathedral Cburchvard, was blown off, and two windows of the Cathedral Wert woe blown in. In Ancoatolane the lead from the roof of Mr Joseph lamb's tottonmill was canted away, and falling upon a cottage destroyed • sortriershie parties of it. The occupant bad • very furrow escape of hie life. In Broughton. • house is Varna-street received great damp. The chimney was blown down, and telling through the roof, earned with it the chamber floor and the floor of the room underneath, into the cellar. The inmates of the house, who were in bed, were much alarmed, but with the exception of • child, all escaped unhurt. The child was cot dangerously hart, and along with the rest of the family was soon reamed from its dangerous position in the cellar story by the righboors.

The most serious casualty, however, which resulted from the storm in this neighbourhood was • railway accident at Calton.

Of course no blame is attributable to the Lancashire and Yorkshire Cerepany's servants, but in what position the parties con nected with the Bolton and Blackburn line stand then has been no investigation, to this time, very satisfactorily to show. LIVERPOOL. Our correspondent says: " On Tuesday evening a terrific hurricane burst over Liverpool and the neighbourhood, and continued to rage with unabated violence till daylight. S.veral houses were unroofed, and left minus chimney pots, and two or three small craft west ashore and have sunk in the bay, but happily no less of life has been reported. The North-West lightship broke from her moorinp yesterday, het ashrquently brought up. Meanwhile a duplicate light vessel was sent out to replace her. Birkenhead market was much iojund, and the church at Oleos (a village in the enroll; ), was despoiled of half its steeple. At Seacombe ferry the leading stage has been capeised. A third edition of the Liverpool Courier says: The barometer had fallen seven-tenths of an inch in the course of yesterday, and there was every indication of a coming storm. The gale came as was anticipated, and was more serious than any we have had since the memorable storm of January, 1839, when so large an amount of lite sad property was destroyed. The wind begin to rise about five o'clock, and manned to increase in violent gluts till three or four o'clock next morning, when it had attained its maximum strength, and blew with tremendous force, rocking the houses In exposed situations. The police were engaged during the night in tarrying sign boards, shutters, and gates, which had been blown down by the gale, to places of safety. On the Chatter and Birkenhead Railway, near the Bebbiogton station, a luggage train was thrown off the mils by the violence of the wind, and impeded the way for some time. The thickness of the morning prevented communication by telegraph before 9 o'clock. At 9.41 am. a signal of distress was made, to the effect that a large three-masted stsamsr bed a signal of distress flying en the Bubo bank. Tree steam-tug immediately proceeded to her assistance, with a life-boat in tow. Tee venal proved to be the screw steamer Diana, from Waterford. The crew and pea. stagers were saved, but the fan of the steamer is uncertain. The City of Dublin Steam-packet Company's steam-boat Trafalger was expected at three this morning, but has not ee t anned Doubtless she and many other vessels will be back by the severity of the gale. About eight o'clock a re and aft rigged schooner, named the Sailors' Home, and laden with stone, on account of the corporation, hove round the Rock Penh, having on her mast a flag of die. tress. As eon se the vessel came within view of the Half- way House, or lifeboat station, a boat belonging to the scuve and indefatigable body_ attached to the life-boat sta tion beteesn Egremont sad New Brighton, put out to her asaistanee. As soon as the life-boat neared what then proved to be a sinking schooner, exertions were made by those on beard to heave a rope to the men in clinger, but ro great was the isle that every effort to do se proved ineffectual. As a last resource, however, the crew of the life-boat found it expedient to run alongside of the sinking vessel. This nau tical manceivre accomplished, the men on board the schooner (at least as we have been informed) got into the boat, and were taken ashore. We have learned, that scarcely had the crew sad boat left the schooner when she sunk. DUBLIN, Fes. 8. One c f the most violent hurricanes whion hits passed over Dublin for several years raged during the entire or last night. S. early as seven o'clock in the evening it commenced blowing in hese y squalls from the west, accompanied by rain ; but daring the night there were few showers, the sky being seldom ob.cnred by a cloud, and the tempest raged without a momentary intermission up to six o'clock this morning. At that hour i•s fury abated, but it still continues (half-past seven) to blow a stiff gale. Tact streets are strewn with slates and tiles; but what amount of injury may have been inflicted, either on land or sea, it is impossible yet to ascertain. 01 course there has been no arrival of the Holyhead packet during the night, nor is there any appearance of the steamer due at Kingstown this morning. It would indeed have been impracticable for the 'Mutest boat to leave a port On either side of the enarine: during the night : and so mach of the gale still re mains that it is doubtful whether the steamer which takes this despatch will reach Holyhead in time for the train.

The origin out history of this soft, and eke various pro ceeding In it, were stoked in our report In the &ruse of Tuesday. Mr. Daniel now resumed his argument in support of the motion, which wee to discharge or vary the order of the Vice-Chancellor of England, dated the 10th of last Deo,m bar, for committing Mr. Dimes to the Queen's prison, for breach of an order of injunction, and also to de rne of • notios of motion in this court, dated the 24th of last February, sad still pending, and to make an order in pursuance thereof, or to discharge an order of the Vice-Chancellor made on the 2nd of June, 1849, end take the bill off the file with costs, to be paid by the plaintiffs. The chief grounds of the motion as stated In our termer report, were that the Lord Chastener, at the tiste that be affirmed, oo appeal, various prior orders of the Visa-ChancellorAwas owner of shares in the Greed Junction Gana, and that he was therefore incapacitated as • judge to ' make any order in the cause, end distal' the orders so made wore null and void, as made coram ion judice. The keened counsel in support of this position cited, emcees other authorities, Rolls ab. Title, " Judge"; " Lord Derby's Cue " (12 Coke's Reports, 114) ; " the Mayor of London v. Wood," (12 Mod. Reports, 688); " Great Chark v. Kennington," (2 Strange, 1173) ; " the Queen v. the Chelteem Commiesionem" (1 Queen's Bench Reports. 476); "t he Queen v. the Justices of Hertford &lre ".(6 Queen's Bench Ropers, 753) From these cues ate atoned that the smallest interest in the subject matter of litigation disqualified the owner of it from acting judicially. And this principle applied to all judges, the highest as well as the lowest, and it was frequently acted upon by the Court of Queen's Bench in respect to justicea at session, commissioner of turnpike trusts, lte. The interest that disqualified wes a lattnt undisclosed pecuniary interest, and that interest it was admitted the Lord Chancellor possessed is this ease. If the existence of such interest was known so Mr. Dimes at the time, he and the plaintiff might then by consent submit to take the Lord Chancellor's judgment, bat without such consent the judgment was a nullity. The counsel now in continuation re-stated the circumstances under which the orders in the cause were made, and after oommentiog on the judgment given by the Master of the Rolls [l3 Jurist, 603], who heard a motion similar to the present lost May at th e request of the Lord Chancellor, in which be held that the Lord Chancellor was bound to re hear the orders of the Vioe-Chancellor, and if he did not there would to ,, a failure of justice, he cited further autho- Atka in support of the motion. Mr. Smythles followed on the same side. Mr. Stuart, Mr. J. Parker, and Mr. Busk appeared for the Canal Company, but were not called on. The Muter of the Rolls said he had listened with great attention to the arguments of the two learned counsel, but he heard nothing to make him alter the opinion he had some to on the he ring before himself at the Rolls, or that the application now made for Mr. Dimes ought to be granted. The order of committal made by the Vice Chancellor was signed by the Lord Chancellor, according to usage and to the 000stitution of the court. That commitment was ordered for breach of aa order of injunction previously made by the Vice Chancellor to restrain Mr. Dimes from Impeding the navigation of the canal. Mr. Dimes, instead of express log contrition for violating that srder, came to the court to treat it as a nullity and not entitled to obedience, and to justify his conduct in violating it. Under thus circumstances his lordship, being called on fete to give his opinion on the matter to the Lord Chan ' eell^r, skald not advise him to make any other order than that which he before advised, namely, to affirm the decree and subsequent orders of the Vies-Chancellor. His lordship re pointed the inainuatien made in the argument that he was of opinion the Lord Chancellor was disqualified from making any order in this case. He Ind heard no valid reason in port of that part of the motion for taking the bill off tin file and filing a new bill addressed to her Majesty. It was open to Mr. Dimes to bring all the orders of which be complained here before the House of Lords. Every facility was offered him for tly t pupae by the court aad the plaintiff's counsel. In the House of Lords he would have the opportunity, before thine who bad no interest is the cause, of raising all the objections raised here on his be half to the orders of the Vice-Chancellor. The tribunal which Mr. Dimes required to hear his case, namely, the Master of the Rolls, and two common law_judees, the Lord Coancellor had not power to create. Mr. Dimes having now failed in this motion, was not without a tribunal to appeal to, the proper tribunal pointed out by the laws and the con stitution of the country. His lordship, taking all the cir cumstances into consideration, would advise the Lord Chan. cellar to dismiss the motion. The Lord Chancellor ezpreesed his acknowledgment to the _Muter of the Rolls for his compliance with his request to sit with him to hear this motion. He dirt not think it necessary to add anything to what the Master of the Rolls said on this matter, except to express his ssiisfaetion that his lordship coincided in opinion with himself. His lordship then denied certain statements made in the argument, 'els , ing to communications between hie secretary and Mr. Dimes, and between himself and the plaint:Bs. The latter he denied altogether, and as to the com munications with his secretary, they were sought by Mr. Dimes, who bad no right to complain of them. He in eon clasion as to the grounds of this motion, namely, recuniary interest in a judge, t►at if the principle was car ried out to its full extent it might become impossible to make any order in a cause, as in that event the slightest amount in the public funds, or in private companies, would di-qualify a judge. The motion was then ordered to be dismissed. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—YESTEBDAY. Baroaa Ma. 0011111M1020.11Fusawata. Ax ELOPEMENT. J. P. Caput!, fruit merchant of Dukc's-place, Alifitate, applied fcr his certiheate. This was one of those extremely rare cases where the Ines wet.- estimated to exceed the lia bilities. The balance-sheet, prepared by Mr. Martin, ac countant, of Niche,les-lace, sh..wed debts t.) the amount of 0511., with a..eets in good debts of nearly double the amount, braid(' property worth 1,6001. There was no epdosition. Mr. Lewis, for the bankrupt, asked for a first class certifi , cede. Already more than enough had been realised to pay all the creditor 20s. in the pound, and of the 1,1511. put down as owing, 300/. had been elisallowed on proof. The bankrupt had been in partnership with two other parties in a brick field. which was a solvent concern, and from which something would be paid to this estate. The books had been well kept, and all the accounts were vouched. The Commissioner—To what do you attribute his bank ruptcy ? Mr. Lewis—Partly to the elopement of his wife, with con siderable property, and partly to his not receiving a sum due to him from Mr. Isaacs. Mr. Hollams, for the assignee., said they had carefully lot,lerd into the case, and did not Bee any ground for offering the siixhtest opposition, though they were not quite so san guine as Mr. Lewis as to the amount of dividend. His Honour said he could not grant a first-class certificate loosely. The bankrupt might either have a second.clase certificate immediately, or, if he chose to wait till the assets were realised, he might then have a first-dui certificate, should his sanguine anticipations turn out to be correct. At present he was not satisfied, from the nature of the bank rupt's trading, that his failure had arisen from wholly unavoidable misfortunes. Part of his domestic account, too, were unvouched. Mr. Lewis observed that there were very few men who kept vouchers for all their household espenses. The Commissioner—Oh dear, yes some men mike their wives keep a diary of everything, down to the salt. (Laugh ter.) And these are the men who don't fail. The bankrupt preferred a second clam certificate immedi ately, which was accordingly granted. MIDDLESEX SESSIONSiYFATERDAY. SWUM Dlit. EAU/ANT ADAMS, ANISTAM f JUDO& BTalurr ROBIULT. . Catherine S'eael was indicted for having stolen from the person of Wibite Hyliu a gold watch of the value of 10& Mr. ltepton appeared for the prisons.. The prosecutor, a man of colour, who described himself as having been valet to Major Hogg, of the 7th Dragoons, but now out of service, deposed that he maid at 29, King street, Golden-square, and as he was proceeding home, between two and three o'clock lut Friday morning, he was accosted by the prisoner, who solicited permission to acretm pany him home, but she received a fiat d nisi. She then threw her arms around hiss, and having held him tightly fur a moment or two, she ran away. At that instant two men came up. and diverted his attention by asking the way to Berkeley-square, and upon looking round, after 1 answering their inquir y, he could nowhere see the pri soner. Directly afterward., he missed a gold bunting watch from his pocket, the guard, which was still round his neck, having been cut in two by some sharp instrument. He met the prisoner the next evening and gave her into cus tody. He positively swore that she was the woman who robbed him. Mr. Repton cross-examined the witness at some length as to his character and former pursuits, but it was evident from the open and straightforward manner in which he gave his evidence that his veracity and respectability were unim peachable. The learned counsel eddreased the jury, and urged that the prisoner was a respectable woman, and stated that he had witnesses to call who would show that she was by no means a person who woald resort to the streets for a live , lihood. _ A person who described himself es George John Stead, architect, of 15, lisddington-street,York-road, stated that prisonerthe sou his brother'. widow, and was in his 'orrice u housekeeper. Her character was uimpeachable, and she had an income of fol. a year. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. In consequence of an intimation from the governor of the House of Detention, the 'tuned Judge directed the matron and two of the lemale warders of that establishment to be sworn. It appeared from their evidence that the prisoner had declared, when the witness Stead celled to see her in that prison, that she had seen him in her lite before, whiles to one of the *Steers the man had represented himself u the prisoner's husbaad, and to the other as her brother in-law. In answer to the court, the prosecutor said he could not identify the man as one of the two who milked him the way to Berkeley-squan, but he oould say that he was the person who at the laeltourt threatened to " tan his hide "u he prosecuted. The learned Judge hereupon ordered the man to stead committed. Ticepolleereal odd the pawner had told Mae the wilease I address the court. I appeal to your lordship— The Judge—WM*ll're you, sir, her hueband, ha brother in-law, or amyeu a stranger to her ? Wiinees—Well, I may have passed as her husband, but she Is my brother's widow. The learned Jcdge then ordered the witutst out donut, racissking with mach severity upon his conduct. The Court maenad the pawner to be transported for ten year. CHOBITT TO ♦ CHILD AT ITS MOTHER. Sarah Herbal pleaded guilty to an indictment, charging her with having siesulted Thomas Charles Hubert, aged seven yeah, her own child. The prosecution was instituted by the parochial authorities of St. Andrew, Holborn, and St. George the Martyr. Ihe prosecutor was a pitiable looking object, pale, thin, and ems dated, and bearing upon his head the marks of the treat ment for which his mother was indicted. Upon being ques tioned, it appeared that he was totally ignorant of what was meant by an oath, that he had no knowledge of a hereafter, I and Jul did not know what WU meant by prayer. Under thug ciri,umaances the eJurt would not allow him to be sworn to go before the grand jury, and the bill was returned without his evidence. None of the facts were gone into, but it appeared from the depositions that the iiifentlant waf , addicted to dritakennem, and was living on Saffron-hill, with • man who wu not the bey's father, and it was a common practice of her's to beat the boy with severity, and on the particular occasion in reference t 3 which these proceedings were taken i she had beaten him with a leathern step, and had inflicted a deep out in his head with an iron saucepan. Sentenced to three months' hard labour. PRESTON. A correspondent says—Early on Wednesday morning it was rumoured that a number of the arches of the railway viaduct, now in canoe of construction over the valley of the Ribble, tad been blown down during the night. On ela mina•ion, it appeared that five of the arches of this stupen dous undertaktog had really given way to such an sxtent that, it is expretid, they most be entirely tak.n down. Whether this damage is really attributable to the wind, or some other cause, is not clear. A tall chimney fell through the roof of a bakehouse in the West end Shambles, in which a man was engaged at th► time in making bread; though tbe bricks, slates, &c., were scattered close to him, be escaped uninjured. A garden wall, belonging to Dr. Brown, in Wincklerequare, was levelled with the ground. Almost every street in the town is strewn with sieve, tiles, bricks, end fragments of chimney-pots, scarcely a house having escaped the violence of the hurri cane. Such a storm has not occurred in tht town within the memory of that venerable and • often mentioned indi vidual, the " oldest inhabitant."

MANSION-HOI3BE. CHIME'S or ROBOZILY.—J. C. }bens was charged with having robbed his master, Mr. M'Kensie, of No. 38, Corn hill, stock-broker. On the 12th of January, Mr. M'Kecsie'a clerk gave to the prisoner, who was errand.boy, a crossed cheque for 248' 18s. to pa y into his master's credit at Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smith's, and it was afterwards discovered that the rum for which credit was given only amounted to 2431. 18, , and that an alteration had been made in the pus-bark. Orr Friday, the 25th of the same month, when the prisoner was in the office, the clerk placed 20 sovereigns of hit own money in his cash.box, in which he had deposited a 51. note, put the cash box in the iron chest, the key of which was kept in his desk, locked his desk, and left every thing sate as he imagined. On the followiag day the prisoner ab sconded; but the clerk found his desk locked, the key of the iron chest within it, and the cash box in its right place, apparently undisturbed. When the each box, howiver, wee opened, the sort reigns were not to be seen, but the 51. note, on which the name of the clerk was written, lay there by itself. _ . _ _ lt was proved by a clerk in the banking-house that a lad had, on the 12th of January, paid to Mr. 61.Kenzie's credit a cheque for 2481. 18s., from which the party who paid it in received 61., leaving the sum of 2431. 18e. to that gentle. man's credit. In answer to a question from Ald. W. Hunts., the el , rk said he would not have given the money, under the circum stances, to a stranger, but he knew the boy as a person who came from the office of the prosecutor. An officer of the Liverpool police force raid he appre hended the prisoner, on hionuay morning, in the river Mersey, on board a vessel bound for New York, in the , sect,nd cabin of which vessel he sailed in the assumed name 'of Clark, which he soon relinquished upon finding that it was all up with him. He then acknowledged that he had robbed but muter of considerable sums of money from time to time, that he had paid the passage moue) to America in Dublin, and that he had spent all he had collected together in going to Ireland, and coming from Ireland to Liverpool. He also said, that all the money he had. after all his depredations, amounted to the sum of Is. Gd., which war found upon his person. The prisoner was committed for trial. _GUILDHALL._ POLICEMEN IN DIb01:1613.-11r. George Furd, of 26, Botolph.lane, in the city, was charged with assiulting the complainant, (a policeman) in Wood street, Cbespside, whilst in the execution of his duty. Patrick Carroll, 171, stated that about three o'clock that mulling as be was passing through Chespside in play clothes he saw the defendant walking along with a small beg under his arm. Witness went up to him, and asked him what he bad there, upon which he called him a damned scoundrel, and knocked him down. With the aid of another policeman he secured Mr. Furd, and conveyed him to the stAtion house. _ . Mr. Ald. Salomons uked what was in the bag. The policeman said it was a blue bag, and had some nude in it. _ . _ The defendant said he was coming from a friend's house, and had halt a dozen songs in his blue bag, when he was accosted ►y a person who sppeared to be a brick layer's labourer, or a person of that class. This person asked him w►at he had got in his bag. He replied that he should not tell him, The man made a lunge ►gainst him, which forced him against the wall, upon which defendant pushed him off, but he did not fail, and asked him who he was. lie said he was a policeman, and must know what was in the bag. Defendant saw an officer at a short distance and called to him. He came up very slowly, and defendant then asked Lim whether the complainant was a policeman, as he had called himself such. With some hesitation the other replied, " it is my opinion that you bad better believe be is a police man." From thus evading his question, defendant con eluded there was some juggle between them, and that his assailant was rot a f•cliceman, and called up n him to produce his authority. lie said that ho should do no sueh thing, and should insist upon seeing what was in the big. Defendant said to the policeman, '• if this man is an officer why not say BO ; I will show the bag to you but not to him." The policeman then said they would all go to the station house. There the policeman's charge of assault w.di taken against him, and he was ordered to find sureties to appear before the magistrate. Mr. Alderman Salomon called upon the other policeman to Wee what he saw. Thomas Hall, 167, stated ho was at the top of Wood-street and saw the other constable in plain clothes a few yards be fore him, and saw him speak to the genthmao, who gave him a thrust into the road. Tney both called out " police," and upuu goieg up ho heard Carroll ask the defendant to !how him the bag. Witness told the gentleman Carroll was an officer; but the gentlemsn was obitionte end would not show what was in the bag. lie, Is4wever, tir,t said ha would show it to witness, but afterwards said he would not till he got to the station house. The Alderman said—Then it was not trues that Carroll was knocked down. The witness replied, No ; he saw the gentleman strike I him, but he did not fail. Carroll interposed to explain that he meant to say that the gentleman nearly felled him to the ground. Alderman Salomon' said that he thought everybody was bound, for their common interest, to support the polies In the fair execution of their duty ; and it must be admitted that the police generally behaved well. Although the magistrates felt the necessity of protecting them, they were bound to look at their evidence with some caution. Here the second po liceman had contradicted the Grit as to his having been knocked down, and it was pl , iu the second policeman had not spoken the truth, for if he had seen his brothel/ constable strut k with such violence, he would have instantly rushed to his aid and seised the assailant. Nothing of the sort, how ever, took place. Now, although the police might wear plain clothes to de , ect crime, yet when they were not dressed as officers they should not act as policemen by themselves, but have the aid of some of the force who were on duty. At Teas terhen policemen went about out of uniform, their dis guise should carry an appearance of respectabitity with it. It prisons were to be stopped by men in the glib of brick layers' labourers, and submit to be questioned and over hauled, they would be liable to be robbed by thieves. How were the public to dittiegnish between a real police officer and a bricklayer's labourer ? He thought the public were justified in refusing to give any faith to persons in such a garb. The conduct of Carroll wan, in his opinion, highly censurable, and he should diemiss the charge against Mr. Ford, and at the same time ram' the consideration of the whole case to the Chief Commissioner, with a view of getting some better directions for the guidance of policemen when in plain closes. Mr. Ford thanked the alderman, and then retired with his Wendy.
