John Kelly, labourer, Ira indicted for feloniously assaulting John Vanderslice, with intent to rob him. Mr. Prater appeared for the prosecution, ant from his opening statement and the evidence adduced to support it, it appeared that about half.psat 12 o'clook as the u'ght of the 20th November last, the proescutor, a foreman gentle• man, residing at Church-terrace, Battersea, was in St. Martin's.lane, when the prisoner sod another man came up reeling towards him as though they were in a state of iatoxication.

Two ill4ooking fellows. who gave the manses of Jain, Johnstone and Janes Motley. were charged helms the Lord Mayor with malicionaly breaking the plate glass window of Mr. John Walker, the eminent chronometer maker, of No. 66, Corneal. a nd also with feloniously stealing from inside* , windows two gold watches of the vales of 70/. From the evidence of Mr. William George Cooper, an auctions and estate agent residing at Giussereb/ Harder's.road, Peckham, and having offices at 32, Coleman street, City, it appears that about half -pest four o'clock in the afternoon of Saturday be was walking in company with a friend named Griffiths along CorahM, when he saw the two prisons» standing with their backs towards and their elbows ekes to the prosecutor's shop window, and he observed that at the same indent and simultaneously they struck their elbows against the plate glass, the affect of which was to smash the window. They turned round deliberately. and each snatched a watch from inside the window, which they severally deposited i n their own pockets: The whams (Mr. Cooper) with his friend Mr. Griffiths rushed across the street and secured the orieoners. Johnstone having bees taken by Mr. Cooper, and Kelley by Mr. Griffiths . They were dragged into the promicattoes shop, when they were searched and the watches found upon them. The polies were sent for, and they were both given into custody. Mr. George Griffiths, of Uniomrow, Queen's-road. Peck. barn, was called, and fully oorroborated Mr. Cooper's testimony. The evidenes W i ll i a m lies-conatables, Daniel Whale, City, 650, and of Russell, City, 641, went to esta blish that the prisoners had no property or money upon them, sad that Johnstone admitted he had taken one watch, while Kelley made a similar admission, declaring that they might has him, as he was in a state of starvation, and was without a home. Mr. John Thomas Walker, son of the proneentor, was also rolled, and proved that he had placed both the watches in the window on Saturday morning, that they wore hie father's property, and of the value of 701. The extent of damage to the plate glass window exceeded 5/. The prisoners, who offered no defence, WOTO fully com mitted for trial, both on the charge of wilful damage, and also on the charge of felony. The prosecutor (Mr. Walker), who, it will be remembered, was the victim of the extensive jewellery robbery which attracted so math public attention some time since, address ing the Lord Mayor, said he desired to express his beet thanks to the two gentlemen by whose prompt activity the priamers had been taken into custody. The Lord Mayor concurred in this tribute, and at the same Sins expressed his sympathy with Mr. Walker for the Manner in which these onslaughts were mods upon his pemuty. - prisoners were then removed. Just as the Lord Mayor was about to leave the bench, Mr. Jones, who is the secretary to the East London Cow' keepers' Association, applied to his lordship on behalf of James Johostooe, a cowkesper, formerly carrying Mt a hustles bushier at No. 7. King-street, St. Georges-in thmEast, who had been reduced to ruin by the death from cattle disease of no less than 20 cows, entailing upon him a less of 1901. unlueive of 1501. for the destruction of the value of the g oodwill of his business. The man was a cripple, and a wife and four children to maintain. The application was for assistance either from she fluid which he/ bees, he believed, raised for distribution at the Mugu. house, or, failing that, for some assistance from the poor ILSDILLD, Dm 13. 1,485 leo& - The Lord Mayor expressed his sympathy, but he rep.— that the fund attempted t o be raised had failed. sod the mosey which had been subscribed bad been returned to the contributors. He regretted that he had no funds tensest the care. BOW.STREET. Thomas Hayes (ax Dishtowel, describing himself as • wheelwright, and residing in Corem.street, Brunswick. square, was brought up lx custody of Inspector Williamson, at the Folios-court, Bow-street, on • warrant issued by . • magistrate for the county of Cotk, in Ireland, charging him with " treason and felony," in coespirine with others to levy war spinet her Majesty the Queen, and to deprive her of that part of her dominions called Ireland. Mr. Burnaby, the chief clerk, observed that the warrant substantially charged the prisoner with being a " Head Oeatre " of the reefs's orisatioe. Inspector Williamson deposed that he apprehended the prisoner that day on the warrant in queasier. It was an Irish warrant issued in Cork, and backed with the usual formalities. Witness teed the warrant over to him. A sergeant from the Irish constabulary was now in attendee.e and ready to remove the prisoner to Cork, where the sanest ' was Slued. Mr. Flowers (to the prissier) -Do you wish to say any thing why you should sot be remitted to Ireland The Prisoner —Nothing beyond this, that I baronet been out of London for eighteen year,. Mr. Flowers—Then you will be handed over to the Irish constable here to be taken to Cork, where you will he tbo claw spinet you stated. The pritoner was thee removed. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Darid Nicholls Coulson, or the Leedom and Provincial Advertiaiag Agency-offies, Na 41, Great Peltenerstatet, sad John Ridgway, advection( spat, No. 117, hewgate street, was summoned before Mr. Tyrerbitt, charged with conspiring together to obtais and obtaining mosey from James Walter, Warwick-place, Warwiek.quare. After hearing the evidences adduced. Mr. Tyrwhitt said be had from the first been sexioue to see what claim the peewee who wanted situations had to the remedy they *ought, u it was notorious there were shabby offices established solely for the porpoee of getting mosey, and whose owners never intended to do asything for the parties who applied to them. He had watched as if lee were • juryman to see if there was any juggle on the part of Coulson to get money from this poor elms of appli. cants; and whether there was a juggle or not it was his duty to deal with the evidence brought before him. It had not bees proved that Ridgway at any time saw Coulees; they were ally proved to have dealt together as agents of the same kidney. One mat to the other ; and there might be • othspiracy bstweea them to this effect: " You get from applicants, sod I will ask 101. premium to stop their months." But certainly there was no evi. &ace, such as might have bees expected, of a coespiracy in its legal sense. With regard to the false there most be an existing fact proved, and this t e lTot ae been dose. He saw in the eas only this, that I Coulson opened an advertising office, and took sa. from people who wanted siteatereem, and who wen told to write letters or apply at certain addresses, in order to wear them eat. so that they might give up coming to the office. He 1 1 weld not ray this wax obtaining money under false pm. since., nod he could not say that it constituted • coespiracy to obtain money by fraud. There might be something loader the evidence that bad not coma out, but on the eei. deuce before him he thought it would beat no use to re. mead the prisoners. if additional evidence of a more eon. Isbasive chancier could afterwards be obtained, than the prisoners might be brought before him again. As there was sot enough to send them for tried. he should order them to be distharged. skroe 7,835 THE VALUE OF BUILDING LAND IN THE METROPOLIB,-Yesterday, at the Sheriff's Court, Red Lion.

Mr. Lloyd complained of the enormous sum demanded and the hardship on railway companies, and consequently on share. holders, because a claimant could request a special juzy, and an expensive litigation followed. Immediately property was required for a railway the price was greatly increased. In this case 1,600!. was asked, and the company had offered 4501. Mr. Gray stated that only 'low. had been asked.

It wad also shown that some property which would have fallen to his children in the event of his sur viving the present owners would now revert to other handy. His lordship thought that if railway coillp•nies were to be held liable for such coutingeociee as these, they had better shut up business at once. Mr. Q.C. (with whom were Mr. Millward.

PLYMOUTH, Dsc. 18. • • - The mail steam-ship Cambrian arrived here to night with 91 passengers, including Colonel White, R.E , and family. The mails were landed and for warded by special train to Bristol, to leave there early on Tuesday morning for London and the north. The Cambrian left the Cape on the 14th ult., St. Helena on the22nd, and Ascension on the 26th. At the Cape the Basuto war continued, and wax likely to last, through the confirmed coward ice of both belligerents. Another engage ment took place between them on October 25, resulting in the death of 40 Basutoe and the capture of 7,000 oxen and several thou sand sheep and horses. After the engagement the Free State and the Transvaal Boers quarrelled about the booty captured. The Transvaallere left the allied camp and returned to their homes on October 30. Eleven of the Cape Corps had de serted from the camp at Drakensberg and were gone to the Free State, taking with them their horses and accoutrements. The deserters met with a hearty reception from the people of Harrismith. The Basutos had published a manifesto charging the Boers with publishing false statements as to their successes, and declaring that the Basuto army had not been in any way imperilled ; also charging the Boers with barbarity, in killing women and children. Another Basuto raid on British territory was alleged to have been made. Measures were being continued to provide for the unemployed in the colony. Trade was but little improved. The importation of sheep to the Cape was strictly prohibited, through fear of the cattle dis ease. Preparations were being made at Natal to receive Dr. Colenso.

THE FENIAN TRIALS AT CORK. • • 1 • THE EXPRESS, TT:IEBMT EVENING, DECEMBER 19, 1865 ANTIGUA IN 1858. •'; [Tb. following letter appears in the Daily Newil Sin,—From a paragraph which lately appea r in your paper on the subject of Governor T' antecedents. giving au extract from Mr. Sew ell's " . Ordeal of Free Labour," it would seem that at the time of the riots in Antigua in 1858, he bad " applied to a neighbouring French colony for but the military aid." It was not Go vernor Eyre, writer of this letter, who was then Governor in Chief of the Leeward Islands, who made the appli cation under the following circumstances :—ln Antigua at that time there were neither imperial troops nor militia, and the police force was come rically inenSicient to uphold the civil power in time of tumult. A tumult of a serious character in which blood was shed o ccurred on the night of Thursday, the 26th of March, in the city of St. John's. I was then twelve miles from the city, and when the report of what had occurred reached me 1 rode into the town, and reached the police-station at two o'clock in the morn ing of Friday. Shortly after sunrise, anti before I had obtained further aid, a combined attack was made on the police-station, in which I was, and the arsenal. The police were compelled to use their arms, and some persona were killed and wounded. The rioters then fled, having failed to effect an entry into the arsenal or police-statiou, although the latter was much damaged. It was then represented to me by the superintendent of police, by members of the Assembly, and other inhabitants, that a com bined and more serious attack was to be appre hended, and they urgently proposed to me to send for military assistance to the Governor of Guade loupe, which island is about 70 miles off. I then felt convinced that a renewed attack on the station by persons acting in combination might succeed ; and although as regarded the lives of the persons within the station any external assistance would have arrived too late, it was certain that a successful attempt would have been fol lowed by acts disastrous to the colony. I, therefore, determined to apply to the Governor of Guadeloupe for military assistance and on the morning of the following Sunday a French war steamer, with troops on board, arrived in the har bour of St. John's. In the interval, however, a lthough the state of excitement b ad magnified the riot into a "rebellion," I felt assured that I could maintain order with the assistance of the planters, who had readily responded to my call, and were formed into a troop of cavalry, and of others who had come to my aid ; and I, therefore, resolved not to allow the French troops to be landed. This caused great dissatisfaction among the white inha bitants. It was evident to me that the tumult was not the result of premeditated design or combination ; but a majority of the Assembly differed from my views on this point. A ye ar afterwards, being obliged to obtain leave of absence, Mr. Eyre, then Lieutenant-Governor lyre, was appointed to ad minister the government in my absence, and hence the confusion of names. —II AM, dm., Dec. 16. KER B. HAMILTON. LETTER OF THE LATE MR. G. W. GORDON The following is a copy of a letter addressed by the late Mr. Gordon, of Kingston, Jamaica, to a friend in this country, six weeks before he was hanged. The original letter has been in our (Daily News) bands. It will be remembered that a part of Governor Byre's case is that Mr. Gordon was pl o tting treason for months before his apprehen sion. Not a particle of evidence has yet been pro duced in support of this assertion, and Mr. Gor don's friends confidently believe that none will be forthcoming Juries, Sept. 8, 1861 Dear Sir,—l presume that you are still engaged in the enterprise of reform on Jamaica matters. There have been great Worksop's to which, more or less, measures of urefol sees and mercy are generally subjected. If the ditEculties mod to quicken our zeal and to direct us is th ere es course their ultimate tendency must be good. lof your friends here have mat you the Jamaies pipers you will have perceived that 1 have had a great deal to do with meetings convened to consider Dr. IJadechill's letter, and a wade: sent by Mr. Cardwell to Mr. Eyre, the governor here, end which the latter has issued as "the Queen's advice." This document is extensively circulated, and sent to all ministers of religious. By several it has been eccopted, and read in the churches for effect, so that the poor people begin to think that there is no hope for them. The planters rejoice over it, and seem delightfully encouraged in their unreasonable. near and oppression. The condition of the people continue' deplorable, especially in the sugar distriete, and nowhere that I have been more so than in the parish of Vete, where • meeting was held on Monday , the 4th instant. The state of matters here is really serious—children naked and starv ing, and coolies too ; adults in misery end not having raiment even to come to the meeting, and from these causes the places of worship are nearly empty, and the schools badly attended, so that in point of fact the meal fabric is fast giving way. The lock-up at the "Alley" (a small brick building about 8 to 10 feet square, an old magazine) is tilled with prisoners. Oa Monday there were 13 (but often 20), who remain in a wretched state, to be tried for some trifling offence, sometimes for two or three weeks. This time it will be two weeks certain, if then disposed of. Next Saturday will be the court rley. The magistrates are principally all overseers, of a very in ferior class of men, and they sit in judgment on the labourers employed by themselves, and it becomes the law of tenor end oppressioo. Lately, without the last provocation, not even • word, one of these said planter magistrates threatened the coroner of the parish in a meet ruffianly way, and abused him. So strong was the case that he was convicted by the court and fined 3d.. and costs. This was reported to the Governor, who ought to consider yet such a person should not be entrusted with her MUSIC. • • TOXIC SOL-FA. CHORAL SOCIETY. Last night a performance of The Creation was given at the Music-hall, in Storeetreet, by this society. It is a newly-formed body—an offshoot from the great associa tion which has dome such great things to popularise vocal music in this country b y means of the method of notation invented by the Rev. Mr. Cameo, of Plaistow. The hall was crowded, and.the performance wan warmly aid (we must add) indiscriminately appbuidsd. But the society must aim at satisfying a severer taste. In perform ing the oratorios of the great muter', they mut engage solo singers of a higher class, and provide a well-organised band of competent performers. Unless tkey do this, their coucerts may be applauded by zealous sol-fs-ists, but will never attract the musical LAW INTELLIGPICE. COURT Or Queszcs BENCH.—Dee. 18.

Mr. fluddlestoe. Q. 0.. and Mr. Henry Matthews were for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Serjeant Salentine, and Mr. Underdown for the company. The plaintiff wee a gardener. in the employ of Mr. 'Tho mas Hotter, of Sydenham. About 10 in the morning of the 20th April last, the plaintiff's wife went to the Lower Sydenhamstetion for the purpose of proceeding to London with a female friend who had a sick child, for whom she wished to have medical advice. It appeared that at this station there is only one booking-office, which is on the dews side of the line, and persons arriving by the upf aide and wanting ticket+ must cross the rails. There is no bridge nor tunnel, and only a wooden platform on a level with the line The plaintiff's wife crossed the line and procured two third sibiss tickets. When she got out of the booking-oaks a down train had arrived, and limiting behind it she was about recrossing to the opposite platform, when an express train from Beckenham came along end killed bra neon the spot. It appeartid that it was the duty ot the statics master to sane the tickets, to keep the acconote, to me ;weepier , safely across the line, and to put them into the proper cerruiges and close the doon.

The busloar of the assizes for the county of Kent corn• mewed this morning. Mr. Justice Mellor , in ch ar g in g the grand jury, said' that he was sorry to find on thia, his first visit to the county of Kept, that the number of caws and the quality of the o ff en ces contained in the calendar wee greater than usual, bat et the same time there appeared to te en absence, with Thor two exception& of crimes of a very heinous character. calendar soistaiaed two charges of wilful murder, the first of which was against • woman named Sarah Elise Drew, who was accused of the murder of her newly-born child by suffocating it. In this case he thought it very likely that it would turn out when it came to be invests pied that the prisoner wee not in a wand state of mind at the time she committed the act. 11, would appear that during previous confinements the prisoner had been 'HOW with inswity, and on the present *wades abe appeared to have taken the very first opportunity that pre sented heel( to destroy her child, and she appeared to have afterwards admitted what slushed done, and stated how she had accomplished her object. With the question of es in sanity, however, they had nothing to do ; bat if the facts were tabliehed to their satiefsction, it would be their duty to nature a true bill against the prisoner, and the other question would be properly disposed of by the petty jury. The other owe of murder was ow in which • pri soner named Stephen Forward was soceseed of murdering his wife and daughter. The owe was a most simple one so fares the eircumetanoss were concerned. The prisoner Re newed by the depositions to have almost been seep to oommit the acts imputed to hi m, and there was so oubt that his wee the hand that ceased the deaths of the parties, and he therefore did not consider that its ne osswary for him to do more than to uprose opinionhat upon the evidence that would be laid before them it would be their duty to return a true bill. Hie lordship then re ferred to • charge of manslaughter against a [cosign airman named Vincenzo Dawdle, and said that it appeared to him that they had no juriedictios in this country to try the prisoner, and he was tether surprised that the coroner should have sent the ease for investigation at thew emizes. His lordship then esplaised that the trawection appeared to here taken place ou boerd a foreign vessel upon the high sou, and that the prisoner and the deceased were both foreigners, and, under these eircomenteces, he said is appeaed to him that the prisoner was DOt amenable to the law of r Fogland, and that thia court had no power to try such a ease. George Gray, pleaded guilty to • charge of anion, and George Parkins, 16, and William James, 31, also pleaded guilty to charges of the same kind. Sentence was deferred. In the coarse of the day the grand jury re t u rned true bills against Stephen Forward, alias Ernest Walter Southey, for the murder of his wife and child. Mr. Poland, who with Mr. Philbrick is Instructed to prosecute on behalf of the Treasury. applied to big lordship to appoint a day for the trial, and he suggested that Wed nesday would be • conveoieot day, not only to himself, but to Mr. F. T. Smith, who is retained foe the defence. Mr. Justioe Mellor said he thought that, having regard to the nature of the business, all be could say was that the trial should not coma on before Wednesday. The pri goner seems to continue to wadies , himself in the same extraordinary manner that has characterised him throughout. He has brought with bin, a bundle of written statements, made since he bas been in custody, which he says are sa fer his defence, and the re edin g of which, if he . 1 4 47111 . 1 be allowed that privilege, will occupy • week. His object evidently is to make it appear that be ia insane ; and upon every occasion wheal hie crimes are alluded to he pro tegees to justify his conduct, and eedeavoure to show that be had a right to kill the parties who suffered at his bands. The defence that will be set up for him will be that of insanity. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S. — MoNDAY.
