COURT OF EXCHEQUER.—Dec. 3. &Wily at Nisi Prius at Wortminater.— (Before the Lord Chid Baron Pollock and a Cummuu Jury.) BARNES V. lIVERLI7. This was en action to recover the sum of 73!. 116. 941. for goods supplied. The defendant pleaded never indebted. Mr. Muddleston, Q.(., and Mr. Holl, were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. Sorieant Shea and Mr. Philbrick were counsel for the defendant. Mr. Hudilleston having stated the plaintiff's cue to the jury, called the followin ,, evidence. - The plaintiff deposed—l am an upholsterer carrying on business in the Llty-reed. la 1659 a gentleman purled Levi took a hour, in liosbury.square. and 1 supplied him with furniture. In March last Mr. Levi called upon me, and asked me if I would allow him 10 per cent. commission on the introduction of a customer. I declined, saying 5 per cent. was the usual commisaioo, but 1 ultimately agreed to allow him 7i per cent. 1 met the defendant by agreement at the house be bad taken, 115, Piccadilly, and was there introduced to him by Mr. Levi. At the defendant's re quest l made an estivate and sent it in for the painting, papering, and decorations, but it was never carried out., be , 1.741/10 the defendant afterwards informed me that his father, who is a large builder, had sent his men iu to do that work, and that he should only require furniture from me provided we could agree ea the prima Between the 30th March and the Bth May, when the first order was given, the defendant and Levi frequently mine to my ware house, and looked at various articles of furniture. At that time I was supplying Levi with furniture, and ou the 4th June I drew two bills on him—one for 20f. and another for 19/., the balance of the account. Before that Levi had ordered a sideboard and wardrobe. On the 2nd August 1 saw the defendant, and in the course of conversation he said, " Of course you have booked all the goods to Levi." replied •' Certainly not ; 1 have Welted them all to you." Defeudant had never before suggested that Levi wee to pay for them. He naked me if Levi had out offered to bring me the moony for them. I said, " Yee ; Levi wished to pay me, and I was never more surprised in my life . " He said, "If Levi says so I you will believe him." He asked me to go and se= but I declined. When I returned home, after that couver- Nation, 1 found on my desk a letter from Mr. Levi's solicitor, inviting me to attend a meeting of his creditors. 1 celled on the defendant the nest day and asked hint what be meant by referring me to an insolvent MAD for the money, to which he replied, "Oh, Levi says you have given him as account of all the goods, and drawn bills on him for the amount." The Lord Chief Baron said ie thought the plaintiff's counsel need not go further. fie presumed it was not die. puted the good. were supplied, and that the question with whom was the contract made. Mr. Sorjeant Shoo—Precisely so. Mr. Huddleston mid in that ems be would not occupy the court further with the examination of the Cruse.eiuunined by Mr. Berjeant Shea—l sent a statement of the goods to Levi, dated the 14th of June, shortly after they were auWied. When I sent it in I knew Levi was Insolvent. The statement produced is the one I sent in, but it had not the words, " Mr. Levi," written on the top of it. Levi did soot say that he bad contracted the debt, sad that his mein must be put on the account. The body of the statement is in my handwriting. "Mr. Levi^ is not. I don't know whose it is. I swear I did not write the weeds " Mr Len' at his house in the presence of himself and wife. The defendant never mid he had not to pay for the goods, but that Mr. Levi was answerable. The fast time 1 heard el Mr. Levi being responsible was after the insolvency. Levi never said that he was indebted to the defendant, sad would have to pay for the goods. He said the defendant MO a reepoesible man, and was the son of Mr. Everett, the well-kaown boulder. I would not have looked to Levi for payment. Everett did not my other goods must be charged to him. I did not tell him that 1 understood he had nothing to do with the payment. The order wee not Wand when I sent the statement to Levi. I thought Levi wee anxious to have the statement to know what his corn minion would amount to. I drew two bills of 25/. each on Levi, not for this account, but for the sideboard and wardrobe I was making for him. They were not delivered. I kept them beck to see if the first bill would be disho noured. It was dishonoured. I have received about 1001. from Levi. He gave me in writing that he would pay me Everett's account within ten days from the receipt of the statement. James Pacsman, late in the plaintiff's employ, proved the delivery, hc., of many at the goods. This was Use plaintiff's owe. Mr. Serjeant Mee addreemd the jury for the defendant. He the questioa was to whom credit was given. He should be able to prove that Levi, who was indented to the defeadast, offered to pay him is goods ; that that offer wee accepted ; sad that then Levi smut to the plainti ff , who agreed to supply the goods ea Levi's credit. It was • dis tills* transaction from the estimate for the deooratiosia &c. He should further be able to prove that the plaintiff wrote the words "Mr. Levi" the statement in Levi's house, is the presence of Mrs. Levi. The learned counsel then celled the following evidence. Mr. Freda:Mk Everett, the defendant, deposed—Previous to April in this year 1 had bed truism:Mons in the way ed my beenseas with Levi, who owed me in Aped last about 3401. I had them takes the house, 115, Piccadilly, which I wished to furnish. Levi wished to mad some furniture to the house iu payment am, debt. I consented, and be told me ha had arranged with the plaintiff to seed me the goods, and charge him with them. Plaintiff was a stranger to me. Levi took me to the plaintiff's shop, and on my second visit there I saw the plaintiff, and looked at the geode only. Nothing was said by me or the plaintiff as to my arrangement with Levi. la July 1 accidentally met the plainti ff a few doors from Mr. Levi's house, and said I thought I should require some more goods—this was after the supply of the goods sued for—and if Ido au they will have to ho charged to my own meanest. I have nothing to do with those you have already supplied ma He said, " I under stood if Mr. Levi did not pay me you would." I replied, " have nothing whatever to do with it ; you have trusted Mr. Levi in this matter, and if you are nut quite clear about the arrangement you had better go with me to him." Plaintiff said, •'Oh no, I know Mr. Levi to be an honour able man. I have dune bushel's with him." I again said, " I have nothing to do with the gouda, and if you will come with me to my office I will show you his receipt." He made no reply, and we parted. The next time I saw the plaintiff was the troiniug Levi was garotted, on the 2nd of August. 1 hail not then received the invoice. Plaintiff then came to my office at the Royal Exchange, and I asked why ho came to me, sod why he had not sent me the invoice, if he considered me liable! He and he thought the order was nut completed. I replied, " Then why did Ton send the invoke to Levi, and draw bills upon him!" He mid he bad not. At this time I had given Levi credit for the goods off niy auvunt. Craw-examined—Levi owed rim the money for ash ad. Tamed to him, and not for stock-jobbing. Suruetinies I took plate flan him for security. I doe% know if be got it from tradesmen. At other times I have lent him money on his 1 0 U's. He now owes me fruin 201. to auc I took some et Lis own furniture fur my debt. T adopted the beet course I could to pay my self. Messrs. Sadgrove supplied me with some goods. I referred them for a portion of the payment (ab out 101.) to Levi, which has been allowed to use in the eettlerneut of the account. Levi has paid me in cash off the debt about4lso/. The last cads payment was in June. I had 210/. of his own goods in May. Then, again, 250/. and I T2I. worth ~f his own sonde. l had 34!. His. of diamoods from Lim; there was 731.

I Mal no idea of his bankruptcy. Levi was a general dealer at S. Fins liery•pm ernent. He is now living in Bleoneibury•aquare.

I used to give lent as security plate, jewels, furniture, and 1 11 U's. It was not convenient for me to pay Ms debt, and I pro. posed to furnish his house, as that would give me time to turn round.

The words. " Mr. Levi. for," were written by the plaintiff in roy house, at my request, and un my giving him an undertaking to pay the amount. Main tiff had repeatedly applied to me for money, and as it was not convenient for one to pay biro, ho drew two bills upon me at short date., for 25/. each.

I traded at that time at Constantinople and London, sod in that bankruptcy I paid 14.. in the pound. My debts were about 50,0001., and my assets in money and securities to 30,0001. My certi ficate was at first refused in consequence of some in formalities in the proceedings, but I afterwards got a third elms certificste.

Other witnesses having been called is support of the de fendant's use (including' Mrs. Levi, who swore to the name being written on the account at her husband's house), The learned counsel addressed the jury for their respec tive clients.

This was a question whether Mr. Mathew Staines, who had previously been • clergyman, and who died at an ad vanced age on the 10th of September, 1860, did or did not destroy his List will dated on the 7th of November, 1838. The defendants were the executors, Mr. Stewart being • solicitor in London, whose sons were benefited by the alleged testament. The plaintiff was the son of the deceased. The cause was heard last month, and was duly reported at the time. Sir C. Cromwell now gave sentence. He considered that the two witnesses who had been called to support the revocation of the will, namely, nisei Ohn, the mistress of the decea►ed, and her brother in-law, Auguste Siebert, were not to be implicitly believed. It might be said that an unfortunate attachment did not necessarily detract from • person's credit. In many eases that was quite true ; bat each must be determined by the circumstances attending it. In this the connexion of Plan with the the court to be a calculating sale of her respecta l l to or what the could get out of him—it wu, in fact, an attachment to his property rather than to himself ; and her position did therefore diminish the confidence to be placed in her testimony. Still move so that of Siebert, whom the evidence plainly showed to have procured for his sister-in-law the situation of mis tress to this aged gentleman ; and whose conduct showed each an amount of calculating moral depravit as rendered him to a groat degree unworthy of belief. Evidence had been tendered of a subsequent declaration to the landlady of the deceased ; but as it had been held that a similar de claration could not have teen received in support of a se. mod will containing a revocatory clause the court did not see bow it was admissible to prove a revocation by bunting or cancellation. The facts of the case did not give the least colour to the statement of Moho and Siebert, that the will bad beau extracted from the testator by Mr. Stewart ; but they did strongly corroborate Mr. Stewart's averment that the deceased had merely given hie son a life interest in the estate because be knew that he would squander it away if he could get possession of it. Be (the judge) must, therefore, declare that the will had sot been destroyed by the deceased. It was stated that the son had died since the termination of the suit. MORRIS C. MORRIS. - 111 a In this case, which was the petition of Mrs. Morris, the wife of Mr. Morris, of Loddiogton-ball, Leicester, The court ordered the defendant to pay the petitioner the sum of 2,000/. in lieu of a provision by way of permanent alimony. DEIISTER t'. DEJISTZIL The petitioner sought a dissolution as the ground of cruelty and adultery. The wife bed condoned the cruelty, but had not been aware of the adultery till • subsequeut period. Sir C. Creswell, after • careful examination of the authorities, thought it was necessary that the whole of the husband's delinquency should be know to the wife in ostler to make her condonation valid. lt was not, however, requisite to decide that point, because, while he was satis fied that the petitioner bad proved her case, Le wee not satisfied, in the terms of section 31, that she had bees &memory to, or bad connived at her husband's offence ; or that she had condoned the adultery, or had prosecuted her suit in collusion with him. He felt, therefore, bound to pronounce a decree nisi, with costa. HOTTICR r. HOTLY! AHD FOXALL Cpßi QT.TRICeB PROCTOR Dr. Twin, on behalf of the petitioner, moved for leave to withdraw the petition. Dr. Spinka, for the Attorney-Gener►l, said the Queen's Proctor had alleged that the petitioner bad wilfully deserted his wife, and had been living in adultery for 20 year.. The Attorney.thineral was willing, however, to consent to the motion on payment of the Queen's Proctor's costa. The petition iris accordingly dismissed. LAITON r. LAITUN. The decree le this cue, which wee the petition of the wife of a barrister for cruelty and adultery, wu made absolute. INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT.—Dec. 3.

Mr. Bolden, an attorney, the detaining creditor, appeared; and Yr. Dowse supported. This was a singular case. The insolvent had been nearly twelve months in prison, and it was alleged that she had considerable property. She alleged that she was the wife c 4 a member of parliament, sod had been the widow of an caber in the navy named " !dastard." She had a daughter, end had made over to her a house, and there was besides large sum in a Scotch bank. The insolvent's daughter, Mies Masten), was willing to give up the property, but her mother requested her not, and there were law proceedings la Scotland to recover the property. Kr. Bolden informed the court that Mr. Miller, the regis tree at the Court of Bankruptcy, had suggested the present appliestion, and considering that the insolvent had been ' twelve months in prison he should not oppose the appli cation. Mr. Commissioner Nichols remarked that be bad only to carry out the law. The party bad ample property, and no matter whether she had been twelve months or more in prim), it was for Mr. Bolden to my whether be conaeuted to the application. Mr. Bolden said he could not, after the imprisonment, reset the application. The proceedings would go on, and the property be recovered.

NURDILSOL:B ASSAULT NY • CONVICT. George Burkett, 20, soldier, a determined-looking young man, wee charged with feloniously cutting and wounding John Cooper with intent to murder him. In other counts the intent of the prisoner was laid to do grievous bodily harm. _ _ _ Mr. F. Russell and Mr. Barrow conducted the prosecu tion, which was institued by the direction of the Home•office. It appeared that the prosecutor was a warder in the convict prison at Chatham, and the prisoner had been sent to that establishment in June, 1859, under a sentence of five years' penal servitude for a robbery committed at Leeds. He had 'Macon ducted himself on several occasions, and the prosecutor had been compelled to report him, and he had, in consequence, been placed in solitary confinement and kept on bread and water, and the prisoner had repeatedly threatened the prose cutor with violence. On the 22nd of June a gang of con victs was employed in some works at Chatham, under the charge of the prosecutor and some other warders, and while the former bad his back to him, the prisoner, who was one of the gang, attacked him in a most savage manner with a specie that he had been working with, and struck him several blows on the head with the weapon, in flicting very serious injury upon him. The prose cutor raised his arm to protect his head, and he then received a tremendous blow from the spade on his right hand, which broke several of the bona. The prisoner would, in all probability, have indicted still further injury upon the prosecutor, if the dockyard guard had not come up, and be was charged by one of the officers with a bayonet before be would give up the spade, and he was then secured and taken before the governor, when the only excuse he made for his conduct was that he did not intend to murder the warder. The prosecutor,. it appeared, was under medical treatment for the injuries be received for four months, and he was then found to be incapacitated for the performance of his duty as a warder, and was discharged the service. The prisoner, when asked whether he wished to put say questions to the witnesses, merely replied that he 6d nothing to ask them. All that he urged in his defence wee that he had a very short temper and was easily put out, and the prosecutor was always "down upon him," and he could not stand it any longer. He denied, however, that he intended to take his life, and said that his object was merely to assault bim. The learned judge having summed up, the jury immedi ately found the prisoner Guilty of wounding the prosecutor with intent to murder him. Mr. Justice Williams, addressing the prisoner, said that as the offence of which he bad been convicted was com mitted before the passing of the recent statute, he was bound to order sentence of death to be recorded against him. At the same time he thought it right to inform him that the offence of which he bad been convicted was no longer a capital one, and that consequently the capital sen tence would not be carried out ; but he must expect a vtir7 severe punishment, and very probably one of penal sem. tude fur life. OXFORD ClRCUlT.—GLorerxrzit, Dze. 3. (Before Baron Wines.) The commission for this city and county was opened here last evening, and his lordship proceeded with the business to-day. There are 32 prisoners in the calendar, besides ieueml brought by habeas corpus from Bristol. Amongst them is a charge of murder al a polies officer against four men who attacked him in the Forest of Dean, and a woe from Bristol, in which a merchant is charged with sys tematic fraud. The grand jury found a true bill against the accused to-day, and Thursday is fixed for the trial. The true bill for murder was also returned this evening. NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Lvararooz., Dgc. 3. Mr. Baron Channel arrived to-day in Liverpool from Lan caster. He was mot at the station by the High Sheriff, Sir H. de Trafford, the Deputy Sheriff, and the Mayor of lAverpool. The commission was then opened in St. °Gorge's-hall, and the court adjourned until next morning, at 11 o'clock. Mr. Justice Crompton is engaged at the Chaster Amebas, and is net expected in Liverpool until Monday next. The civil cases will then commence. NORTH WALES....-CIMTER, DEC. 3. The winter anima for the county of Chester commenced We day before Mr. Justine Crompton. The learned judge having attended divioe vendee at the cathedral, proceeded to the Castle, when the bushman( the anima at once com menced. There are 40 prisoners for trial, including a sin gularness of murder, in which Jamb= Morgau is Chemed with poisoning her sweetheart, the deceased and the pri soestr having mutually agreed to die together. The grand jury having come into court with a number of bills, the trials were proceeded with, but none were of suffi cient public interest to all • report. John UIIOIWOII, a watchmaker, carrying on business at No. 14 Wormwood•atreet, was brought up on • warrant signed by the Lord Mayor, charged with unlawfully detain ing three brooches, value 151. The prisoner has had no less than forty-eight summonses issued spinet him, including cases in which a second sum mons had been granted, within the bet twelve months, fur detaining property ; and Mr. G. C. H. Lewis, solicitor, who is the complainant in this case, has taken out three against , him for the detention of the three brooches ; but as he has failed to appear to answer either of them, a warrant was granted for his appreliensioo. Upon being mked by Mr. Goodman if be had the brooches, the pnsoner'e wife handed them to Mr. Lewis, and upon examining them, he said that two of them which contained family portraits were not in the same state as when left with the prisoner, one portrait being damaged, and the other had been taken out and was missing. He stated that the articles were left with the prisoner to be repaired in November, 1860. Repeated applications had been made for them during the last 12 months, but as they were never forthcoming, he had taken a warrant against him. The value of the missing portrait, he said, was a guinea, and he should apply that an order be made, and applied for costa, as be bad attended at the court three days ; besides having lost a deal of time in calling so many times upon the prisoner. His lordship made an order for the payment of one guinea, the value of the brooch, and one guinea costs. The order was allowed to stand over for a day, to give the prisoner an opportunity of producing the portrait, as Mr. Lewis would rather have that than the guinea. There was also a summons against the prisoner for de taining a watch value 31., to which he pleaded guilty, and an order wee made out for its restoration, or payment of N. Upon these cases being disposed of a young man stepped forward, and said the prisoner had also a watch belonging to him, which the prisoner acknowledged, and promised to give it up on Saturday. ULEMBENWELL. William Taylor, a low-looking but _powerfully. built fel low, a costermonger, residing st HeirY.-Pbor, Conon hagenetreet, lalington, was charged before Mr. Barker with violently assaulting polioe-sergeant, Witherington, 21 N, and poltoe-conetables Pony, 23$ N, and pierce, 300 N, in the execution of their duty. From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner, who is • noisy turbulent fellow, was the worse for Imour, making • great disturbance and abusing his wife. The sergeant eked him to go away, but he would not ; and on the sergeant tithing him into custody he kicked and plunged very vio lently. In the course of the scuffle the prisoner kicked him un the legs and thighs, and, with an oath, said that he would injure him for life. After a desperate struggle the other constables came to the sergeant's assistance, and on the way to the police station the prisoner threw Perry with pest force on the ground, kicked him twice in the inside of the thigh, and otherwise illused him. The prisoner also kicked Pierce on the legs, and on the way to the cells he attempted to strike some other constables. The prisoner's wife is • hard-working steady woman, but the prisoner, it was stated, was an idle fellow. Mr. Barker said that his defence made the matter worse. He would do all he could to protect the police from the savage assaults of drunken men, and should send the pri soner, without the option of a fine, to the House of Correc tion, with bard labour, for two calendar months. David Illiagrorth, 35, a cab-driver, badge 461, residing at 14, .een-street, Pitfieldetreet, Horton. was charged with v cleatly assaulting police-constable John Manebridge, 145 N, in the execution of his duty at High-street, Islington. The constable that morning was endeavouring to coal • disturbance in High-street between some low prostitutes, when the prisoner, who stood behind the constable, without any provocation struck him • tremendous blow and pitched him against the wall. On the constable partially recovering himself he seised the prisoner, who threw the constable with great force on the pavement. While the constable was lying on the pavement the prisoner kicked him several times on the back of the bead and body, and otherwise severely ill-used him. When the constable got up the pri soner struck him in the face and made his nose bleed. Assistance having come up, the prisoner was taken to the station, but on the way to which he was very violent. The constable was, from the effects of the prisoner's violence, rendered unfit for duty, and it was found necessary to send him home to bed and to apply leeches. My Barker said, as the assault was so serious, and the constable was in so bad a state, he should remand the prisoner for • week. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Within.. Ha►ding, a young min, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with the following assault on • little girl named Sarah Bye, living at 12, Little Pulteney-street. It appears that the little girl was passing along Rupert street the previous afternoon, when the prisoner seized her by the hair of the head and lifted her off her feet. He thee threw her down with great violence and destroyed her bonnet. Godwin, 206 C, corroborated the little girl, and said that on asking the prisoner why he did it, he replied, became the girl had followed him. Mr. Tyrwhitt maid he should commit the prisoner for si: weeks without a fine. It was • gross outrage without My MUM. Elizabeth Armand, • dirty little woman, was charged before Mr. Tytwhitt with violently assaulting Mrs. Susan Engle under the following circumstances. The complainant, the wife of • bird-shop keeper, 40, Great Bt. Andrew-street, said that on the previous night the prisoner came into the shop and abused and struck her several times about the head with her fist, and tore out a quantity of her hair. It was the third time she had so treated her. limy 6;uriner said she heard the prisoner uk for Mr. =mid on being told that he warn not at home she at- Mrs. Eagle. Prisoner—The complainant's husband bu bewitched me. He ha. been murdering all of us for some time while io our had.. Austin, 318 A, said the pri ner, both last night and that morning. told him that Mr. Eagle had bewitched her and set a spell on her. Prue:ler—He has set a spell on me. I am enraged to madness and can't live. lam bewitched. I live in Lam beth. Mr. Tyrwhitt—You will have to find bail. Whether you are crazed or not I cannot tell, but your conduct is dan gerous. The prisoner, who is e strange-looking woman, was then ordered to find one bail in 51. THAMES. The prisoners accused of being concerned in the great silk robbery at the St. Katharine Docks last March were further examined, and remanded. The solicitor for the prosecution hopes to complete the ono next week. LYING IN THE WAY OP TRADE. At the Wakefield Sessions on Monday, before Colonel Smyth, M.P., and a full bench, Angel Isaacs, a re spectable-looking man, described as a hawker of gas regu lates', of London, was charged with obtaining a sum of six shillings from Mr. Hall, a newsvender, of Wakefield, by mesas of false pretences. Mr. Thomas Beard, of Basing. halletreet, London, defended the prisoner. Mr. Hall stated that a short time since the prisoner called upon him, and submitted to his notice some new gas regulators. He said they would burn less gas and show more light than any other in use, and affirmed that he had entirely fitted tip the hamary carried on by Messrs. Fernandez, of Wake field. He also mentioned some other firms ; sod, in con sequence of his statements, witness purchased three gas re gulates' for Gs. Subsequently witness found that prisoner had not fitted up Messrs. Fernandez's brewery : hence the proceedings. Crou.examined by Mr. Nord—The gat regu -1 atorss did not save pa, but they gave three or four times the light that the old burners did. Some merriment was caused by an attorney's clerk, who was called as • witness by the plaintiff, aud who was excepted to by Mr. Beard, upon the groond that gas-regulators and law were not so closely allied as to enable the witness to be judge in the matter. For the prisoner, Mr. Beard prod uc ed high testi monials, and urged that if the gas regulators did consume snore gas the light they gave fully bore out the statements of the prisoner. Mr. Beard also quoted the ease of the " Queen v. Bryant" and some others, in which the Queen's Bench had laid down that the mere telling a lie to obtain custom was not in itself sufficient to obtain a conviction for false pretences. The chairman having paid a high compli ment to Mr. Beard for the manner in which he had defended the prisoner, said a majority of the magistrates were of opi nion that the prisoner must go for trial. He was aooordingly committed, but bail was accepted. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT. —MA t fr-,Tos s, Dam 3. Mr. Justice Williams went to church this morning at 10 0' and prooeeded from thence to the oourt and cam the business. His Lordship, in charging the grand jury (of whom the Berl of Brecknock was chorea foreman), said he feared it was very irksome and incon yen mut for then, to be compelled to leave their homes and attend the maims at this season of the ear, but when they found how many pri s on en there were for trial, anal saw the serious charges that were made !against them, and remembered at the same time how important it was that the different gaols in the country should be relieved SS soon AS possible, he was sure they would not grudge their attendance, or taking part in so important • public service. The calendar was certainly • very heavy one. It contained no lees than three charges of murder, one or two of man slaughter. sir of arson, and several ot her very serious cases. One of the charges of murder stood over from the last amine, and they would, therefore, not be troubled with it, as the Lill hail been found already. The second was a charge against a young woman of destroying her newly-born infant, in which he was sawed they would feel it their duty to find Arlie hill ; but with regard to the thinl, he con !littered they would probably come to the conclusion that the nutlet) of the case would only require th em to find bill fur manslaughter. There were several oases of anon, but he only saw in one of them any evidence of the accused penman bang actuated by towards the party whose property wee destroyed. Having referred to some other cases, his lordship said that there was ogle feature in the present calendar which he felt called upon to say gave him great satisfaction, namely, the small number of soldier who were charged with offences ; when he was at this place two years at, in his present position, considerably more than half of the whole number of prisoners were soldiers, and be was very glad to lee that although on the present occasion there were undoubtedly some persons of that condition who were charged with offences, still the number was comparatively small, and it gave him very great satisfaction to be enabled to make this remark. Before he dismissed them to theirduties, he thought it right also to remind the grand jury that the principal object fur which it was thought desirable to hold a winter assize was to try prisoner. who cases could not be disposed of at the quarter cessions, and it followed, therefore that it was never in tended that any eases should be taken where the parties ac cused were out oa hail, or where they were such as were tel. able at the quarter sessions, and the reason he made this MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before the Assistant,-Jodie.) Benjamin Dickenson, 32, pleaded guilty on Monday to a charge of stealing a clock and other 'niche the property of Thomas Hobson, and a brooch and other articles the pro peety of Mary CracknelL From the statements of the officer of Coldbetlp fields Prison, Leaky'', and Sergeants Cole and Holmes, of the detective police, it appeared that the prisoner win well known under the oboe of" The Loug Snub," and bad been four times convicted ; he was an enoourrgerof young thieves, an associate of convicted thieves, sod a receiver of stolen property. Cole said the prisoner's plan was robbing public-houses by sneaking epstein. In this case the prosecutor was the landlord of the Crown, Green-street, Leicesteroquare, and having had some information given him, he went up the staircase and met the prisoner coming down. He collared him, and the pnsoner said, " For God's sake don't hurt me, for the sake d my wife and family" (throe children), and at the same time he gave up a timepiece. The pro. eseutkr said, " You vagabond, you've got more than that, and assistance was called, and the prisoner wee held while the prosecutor went up to his bedroom. There he missed a diamond ring and a key ; the other articles belonged to the prosecutor's servant, and had been stolen from her bedroom. 11risoner bad in his possaseion a large strong knife and loader matches. _ _ _ The Amistant-Judge said the prisoner was one of the class of persons from whom it was the imperative duty of the court to protect the public. The primmer begged for mercy on account of his family, and said he would never commit crime again. His lordship said he should have thought of his family before ; it was too late now, and the sentence upon him was four years' penal aervitude. Prank Martin, convicted last session of a garotte robbery in Fountain-court, Strand, at 2 in the morning, and of assaulting a police-constable, whose leg was broken in twu places, and by whose side the prisoner was found bing, • severe struggle having taken place, was brought up for judgment, but further inquiry as to his antenta being necessary, he was again remanded. Mr. Metcalfe prosecuted ; Mr. Dickie appeared for the prisoner. SHOOND COURT. (Before Mr. Payee, Deputy-Amistaat Judge.) John Colnea, H), was indicted for stealing a purse con taining BS., the property and money of George Hollington, from the person of Harriet Hollingion. Mr. Lloyd prosecuted. This was an ordinary street robbery, but the prisoner was a most daring thief. The wife of the prosecutor, a licensed victualler at Barking, was is Wheeler-street, Spitaltielda, onjthe evening of the 20th of November, when the prisoner stopped her, threw up the flounce of her dross and picked her pocket. She had • brother-in-law near by, who ran after the prisoner and caught him, and gave him in charge. The jury found him Chatty, and • number of coevictions was proved agniust him, about seven, on ono of which De was sentenced to seven years' transportation. The learned Judge sentenced him to ten years' penal servitude, and said these daring street robberies were so frequent now that the court wee bound, in the discharge of its duty, to punish those who committed them with severity by way of example. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-HOUSE. Matthew Miller, a lad of about seventeen years of age, was brought before the Lord Mayor yeeterday, charged with embezeling IW., the money of his employer, Mr. James Loader, 149, Cheapside, haberdasher. It appeared that the prisoner was in the employment of Mr. Loader, and was in the habit of taking out parcels, for which he was authorised to receive the gamey, for which it was his duty to account the seat day. lu the be ginning of October last, Mr. Bailey, one of the prosecutor's customers, received three receipts for the following amounts, vie., sf. 18s. bd., 21, us. Bid., and 61.:1., which! sums he had paid the prisoner himself, and he had given the receipts. The two latter sums, however, he had never accounted for, and out of the 51. 18a. Le had paid over to his master 41. 2s. The pri- wiser was detected iu rather a peculiar manner. It appeared that a gentleman waited upon the prosecutor a few days since and produced a small pocket-book, which he said lie had picked up, and finding one of that gentle made bill-heads in it, having his address upon it, he called to see if he knew anything of it. The book was the prisoner's, and this led to his detectiou, for a cumber of in voices were found in it, also an account of hie pecula tion'. Besides embezzling the amount above-mentioned the prosecutor stated that there were a great many other eases eatoudiog over a period of eighteen months. The invoices produced by the witness Bailey were not the same that We prosecutor bad himself made out, but were in the prisoner's handwriting, and upon them were a number of items which were not in the books, and if the goods to which these sums related had been sup plied to Mr. Bailey, they were stoles from the warehouse by the prisoner; from which it would seem that the pri weer had supplied Mr. Bailey with goods unknown to his master i and upon the prosecutor's making out the invoice sod giving it to him to collect the account be had made out another, adding the items which he himself had supplied, and after reoeiviug the mousy for the whole deducted the amount of the original invoice, which he paid to his master, and kept the di ff erence himself. The prosecutor, however, was quite content to let the case rest upon the three amounts gone into, and the prisoner was committed for trial. TRAFFIC RETURNS.

COTTON 000D8.—Marrcnaerea, Dec. 3.—We have again to report a discouraging market. As stated in our report of last Friday's market. business here was paraylsed by the news of the outrage upon the Trent mail steamer, and the priors of shirtinge declined 6d. (and in some cases 9d.) per piece, without finding buyers. Since then there has been some slight recovery. but still prices remain consi derably lower than they were this day week. List week's prices were N,. 70. per piece for 39-inch shirting, of 71b. weight, and to-day therms cloths can be bought at Bs. lid. iiezlncee. The market contiuues inactive for all kinds of . T cloths are about 12d. per lb. The pewee at which • s weft are offered are about Ild. per lb., and of 20', warps about 12d., but the yarn market, as well as that for cloth, is very fiat, and there is no Wetness doing of any consequence. There is • dispo sition on the part of spinners to take lower prices, but buyers are not making offers, or rather there are no ,buyers, and the market closes with a drooping tendency. Prices have fallen a full id. perlb. since last Tuesday. 'Yesterday there was •;rather better feeling, from people being dis weed to anticipate a peaceful settlement of the American difficulty ; but the advice' published today, by the last steamer, of the feeling with which the news of the attack on the Trent had bean received in America, has thrown • gloom over the market again. We begin to look forward to a rather gloomy Christman. Not only are many of the mills stopped or working abort time, but it is anticipated that a great many of the mills at present ruuning full time will be stopped for a month after Christmas. A great many workpeople are already out of employ, and want and misery begin to show themselves in many directions where till Dow we have had happy industry and comparative plenty. MANUFACTURE& HIIDDIRATIILD, Dim 3. The market today has been a little busier, especially in winter goods. A few transactions have also been made in job lot', reaching altogether to a moderate amount. stocks in ma nufacturers hands are still very heavy, and they complain much of being unable to make a profit. WOOI.4.—HUDDMUIFTILD, Dec. 3.—The price of wools being easier is an inducement to some of the buyers to "mt. to a small extent, but trade is Dot considered som emeotly sound to warrant them in purchasing heavily, sad much less business is done than might be expected. CORN.—Huct.. Dec. 3.—At to-day's market a very small supply of English wheat, which is taken on by local millers at an advanoe of la. to 2a. per qr. Foreign sells slowly at ls. tots. per qr. over last week's currency. Buyers cautious, and transactions limited. Barley, both malting and grinding, neglected, and prices rather lower. Beans and peas dull aale. Oats neglected, but offered at any quotable reduction. The foreign imports last week are as under Wheat, 7,568 qrs. ; barley, 530; oats, 229 ; bums, 1,165; pea., 40 ; linseed sad rapeseed, 4,7T8 ; oil cakes, 142 tons ; bones, 413. Loons, Doc. 3.—The show of wheat is not large to-day, and tine qualities are readily taken off, at an advance of Is. to 21. per quarter over the rates of last Tuesday. Barley sells slowly, value unaltered from Friday. Beans and other articles asbefore. LivearooL, Dec. 3. —We have had a very nu merous attendance of millers and dealers at this morn ing's market, and a good consumptive business has been done in wheat and flour, at an advance of 2d. per cental and 6d. per barrel over the quotations of Friday last ; the former article being in most favour. The heavy sup plies keep Indian corn in check, and buyers operate cautiously at the rake of last market day. Oats and oatmeal are without alteration. Beam, pw, sad barley are each 6d. per quarter dearer. The market closes with a healthy tone of feeling. Lxsw, DEC. 3.—Weather is frosty, with a south-west wind. At our Corn Exchange thin day we had a limited show of wheat, and prioes of all description must be noted fully la. per quarter higher. Barley, the supply not. so good, and last week's rate' maintained. Beans and oats fully as dear. Per imperial quarter to the grower:—Wheat, white, new, 621 be. to 64115 t., per imperial bushel, 61s. to 675. ; ditto, red, 611bs. to 64th.., 60c to 64a.: ditto, old, 661 he. to 621ba., 48s. to 58a. Barley, beat chevalier malting, 531bs. to 54th.., 36.. to 38a. ; ditto runs chevalier ditto, 521 h.. to 531b5., 32a. to 36a. Oat., 361bs. to 421 be., 245. to 275. Beans, old, 68th.. to 651ba., 50s. to 545. ; new, 60Th.. to 641 h.., 42a. to 46.. Nowairns, Dlo. 3.—The weather is now frosty, and if it continues all pin will undergo an important improve ment in the °audition. At our market this morning we had a moderate show of wheat from the growers as well as from the coast, and factors generally holding for Is. to Its. advance, had the effect of checking the demand, but in the business done rather over Saturday's rates were realised. For a very floe parcel of new Norfolk yellow, 68.. per 504 Th.. was procured, whereas old foreign was also in more favour, extra red Holstein. Flour, a good clearance has been effected, choice households making 455. ; extra whites up to 475. oar sack respectively. Halting I.erley still tend ing cheaper.
