This was the second week ; the at it week the prisoner woe le :wisely. This was the whole of the evidence. Air John Asedry then asked Mr. Maunders what commit• meet he asked for. It was not nay to commit is • pnacipal or aecessay definitely. but is this came it would be desirable not to vermin: for the heavier °deem if the lijiter only wsa ultimately intended to be prosecuted. In reply to Mr. :taunt...is. Su John Awdry resumed —ls regard to the person who, Is order as it may be to make aseursace doubly aura, cut the throat, the person who did so might be merely accessory.

He sud they bad not sow to consickr who wait the tend in human shape who pmmtirstell the dire deed, but whether they had any evidence before them to warrant them in sendiog the unitised for trial. Mr. Saanden had I. his opening gum into the case with an elaboration which they ha ,l sneer heard eiiiialleil in a criminal case, aryl had anipli6ed tun tine or two points; which had no immediate bearing inn the in's.. r instance, he had • doubt as to what time tie n ui r i hr had beenrommittal,and whetherthe wound was iolictol after death, or when the child was still alive. All these metti.ra hail received full hearing in this inquiry. tin agitu with regard to toe queation of the dog not barking, for it was proved beyond ill locution that the dog w as en • closed to the mod, and that a person could have got from the anteing-room to the closet without passing through the yard at all. Sir John Awdry—Any one could have got from the front door to the closet also without going through the yard— that is, if you regard the window being opened merely as • blind.

With reference to the pour child's murder, be would not attribute crimi nality or guilt to Mr. Kent, bat Mr. Kent's solicitor bad prevented • little child being examined who slept in the oars room with Mr. Kent.

When she west away she Idb bet address, and had given at all time@ every intensifies is her power. She bad remained with Mr. Kent two months slier the murder, hail not then left of her own free will, and bed expressed her willingness at any hour to come forward for further examination. He appealed to the justices nitre mod her for trial ; the eyes of the whole world wo w you them, sod if they debberately stated that demean • facie case against I.er, for the rest of her life she be branded with infamy, even though acquitted at time trial, previous to which el.e would endure six moues* i merit. The le“ rned gentleman then at grest ll = adverted to the three points which had ism linsight forward against her., First, the Tarim breseldesess with regent to her knowledge of the remand el the blanket before the child was brought in. Even if them Mir crepandes did exist, which was very uncertain, be ormiseded it was nothing but what might be attributed to the agita tion of the moment, and nothing more. With regard to the flannel, the evidence as to its fitting the prisoner, and DOOM else in the house, were it evens material point, vas wholly dependeet on the testimony of that wretched woman whose proved falsehoods he denounced in the strongest terms. With regard hto the only other point, that the prisoner could not have seen the boy's cot from the bed, be contended that her word " kneel ing " should not be so arbitrarily and strictly interpreted she had once said "got up in the bed," which might imply much more than the kneeling as tried by Mr. Wolfe, who WWI a tall man, and unaccustomed, as the nurse was, to the exact position of the cot and its contents. The evidence had been quite as hard against Miss Constance and Mr. Kent himself as against the prisoner, and he appealed to the magistrates most earnestly net to subject her to a trial on the paltry ease of anspiciou, which, after all their endeavours, they had been only able to wring in thee days of close examination from twenty-four witnesses. She bad acted naturally through out, and there was no foundation whatever for &case against her. The learned gentleman concluded his speech of two and-a-quarter hours' duration with a most pathetic appeal. The court then adjourned for half an hour, to admit of the magistrates considering their decision. Oe the magistrates returning into court the intensest inte rest was apprmt. The prissier shook violently, and be came deadly pale, which, indeed, she had been throughout the day. AM present were deeply affected, and the bar risters and solicitor, could not conceal their emotion. prisone here Sir J r ohn Awdry—ls there any friend or relation of the ? Mr. Ribton—Yes, Sir John, her two urclee are present. A pause ensued while the professional gentlemen were re suming their places. Sir ohn Awdry-1 will not keep the poor girl in suspense a minute longer than necessary, but inform her at once that we have determined on not committing her for triaL (Ap plause, which was speedily suppressed.) At the same time I cannot close with that dec lara tion. Observations have been made referring strongly to the manner in which this inquiry has come before us ; and I wish to may that I do not see the slightest misc. , thluct on the part of Mr. Slack, or any one coneervisl, ia the manner in which the inquiry has been conducts'. Mr. Ribton I wish to my that, as far as Mr. Slack pis weeny is concerned, I never intended to make any offal• ire or annoying expremion whatever. Stir John A wilry—We feel we shall not be justified in committing the prisoner on this evidence, especially as rll our previous inquiries have agreed in this, that there is r of the slightest imputation araiest kie^ previous character; indeed, this is true to a wonderful extent, omisider;ng how were have been the criticism to which she has been v.- peed in all quarters. She appears from the first to have betrayed neither over indifference in the master nor sullen gilvrce, as is frequently the case with primmer' char. I with grave offences. I a. not my there is not material even now which may hereafter, with other additioaa, be acted upon in reference to the promise ; and we have therefore decided to bind her over in sureties, either one or two, in a moderate sum. ry 100 f., to appear when called on. The depositions were afterwards read over to the family of Mr. and Yrs. %eat and witness, and the inquiry ter minated. Sir Ribton—Mr. asunder% had entirely failed in his ath.mpt to show the improlability of any one being secreted in the hums.

If there was any dig turbias wesentirely owing to the forcible manner in which Mr. aid Mr. 'Thompson acted towards the defendant. W Fowles said that he wee on ;the church steps on the night of Sunday, the 23rd, when Mr. Churchwarden Thomism said, referring to Rowe, who was approaching, " Henke ousee—we must have that man Rowe to-night, at any pries." Rowe wort to a pew, and Cooke ordered him out. Pis said that Mr. Thompson had appropriated him that seek and he should not go. Afterwards. Thomp son mass and pulled him out forcibly, causing a great dis turber*, and compelling the minister to ruspendtheservioe. In remezemination, witness said that he had worked with tire iistrabee as a fete in the dodos. Mr. Ben*, • yesterran of St. George's, and several other witnesses, mute Noted to prove that Mr. Thompson and Mr. Cootie gamed the disturbance, and that the de fendant was not to lime. This was the are. Mr. Belie, in giving judgment, rid this was the first case which hod cores betel him under the recent ratute with respect to twaselfsg `church. He had hoped that he might never bye web a ease, but as it had arisen it was his duty to deal with it. Before stating him judgment on the main grounds alleged in connexion with the charte, he would take the opportunity of saying &few words in reference to a decision which had been given by his learned and excellent friend, Mr. Elliott, who eat in that court emu two months ago, and before whom the first cue under this statute was brought for decision. He was very sorry to find that in any quarter as impression should prevail that there was • difference in any act of parliament, and especially in one of this kind, between • gentleman who was held in such high estimation as a lawyer and magistrate as Mr. Elliott, and himself. If there had been that difference of opinion, it would have afforded strong ground that he (Mr. Sella) was mistaken, but he was perfectly clear, and he had had opportunities of referring to the previous came under the former statute of Mary, which it fell to his lot to decide—he was quite clear that it was a misapprehension that the least di ff erence of opinion is to the kw existed between Mr. Elliott and himself. It was not unimportant to mention this, because in courts of superior jurisdiction like that, differences of opinion amongst judges who might sit there were very undesirable. Mr. Elliott had a ease before him in which • person wee charged with reedit* the in church in a noisy and irreverent manner, and . Elliott decided that his conduct was an interruption of the minister, and • Munk of the act of parliament. He (Mr. Selfe) entirely as sented to every word of that judgment, nor had he ever said anything which upon consideration could bear any other interpretation. In that court, happily, they did not have law reports, but he found in the newspapers of De cember • remarkably accurate report of a declaim he laid down, that if any person went to • church to meets a disturbance sod to drown the voices of the ch that was • violation of the statute, which still r e mai ned in force. He never said that it was lawful for any one to say the responses et his pleasure, which amounted to en interruption. He had refused to lay down the broad pro position which he was asked to do by counsel, that when • minister, wisely or unwisely, decided that the respo nses should he sung, any one saying them warn guilty of a viola tion of the statute, because some persons could not sing, and were obliged to say the responses. He was in the habit of going to Lincoln's-inn Chapel on Sunday afternoons. There the minister, who could not intone, reed, and the choir responded. Other person' said the responses, but these was no disturbance of any kind. He only men 'Cooed this because it was the first oppor tunity he had had for explaining that he wished it to be clearly undastood that be did not differ in any respect from Mr. Elliott, and that though he refused to bay down the general proposition that nobody should say the responses when the minister directed them to be sung, the brawling of them or saying them irreverently was • breech of the statute. In the present me be was called to decide w bather tbe defendant had been guilty of • breach of the recent act of parliament. It should be remembered that this statute did not repeal the set el Mazy, but that it left it untouched ;— that act therefore remained is force. The recent act was divided into two pine the first having reference to violence in a church or churcl:yart, and the second to disturbing the minister in the pelform mei of divine service. The gunmen* in this case was taken out under the second heed. If this had been simply • squabble about • particular seat, or a doubt as to the meet to which the churchwarden had directed the defendant, he should have taken a very different view of it from that which he felt bound to take. It wee porible that Mr. Thompson had told him to go to the side aisles, es stated by one of the witnesses, and did not at the time expready point out to him that it was to the south aisles be wished him to go. But it was impossible to take that isolated set of penisting to go into • seat which the person to wirers was appropriated refused to allow him to eater—it was im pomade to take that act by itself, and he was bound to look at the whole of the evidence. It bed been sworn to by a witness who was not contradicted that the defendant entered the house of God on that Sunday evening with an oath on his lips—language more St for • brothel than for decor society, much lens than for the house of God. In the vestibule of that church, and therefore within the terms of the act of parliament, he used language which be did not like tarepeat, but about which he thought that he ought not to be squeamish—" My God, I won't be stopped from going into the church by those snotty fellows ;" and then having forced his way into his rat proceeded to bawl out the confession of his sins. Mr. Smith, the deaf sideman, who knew his voice well, was attracted by the noise, and had stated that the defendant wee bawhog out as loud as he could. That was a wicked mockery of God's commands—a solemn mockery to confer sin while shouting out those solemn words to the annoyance of one's fellow worshippers. It was, moreover, beyond all doubt • distinct breach of the set of parliament. Putting on one aide the entrance to the met against the remonstrance of Mr. fie, the defendant's subsequent conduct was violent od at indecent. and no man of common sense, who believed the evidence ' could doubt that it merited that designation. The defendant appeared to think that he was the victim of a conspiracy. If it were a eon seamy, clergymen, churchwardens, side' en, °Mask, rind even stnugers, were parties to it. If that was so, be was glad to find that they led all combined to voter the sacredness of the church, which had been so fearfully dese crated. They would have the conviction of their own minds that they had done their duty, and the approbation of their ecclesiastical superiors. They would have not orly the sympathy of ell good men, but certainly, as far as that court could render it, they should have every assistance is enforcing decency when a person had clearly offended sgainst the law now in force. He was very clad that the recent strata hnd been pared, for though it .11,1 not repeal the statute of Mary, it supplied the male of procedure, while it mitigated the penalties and rentleted one lee disin clined to pass a sentence ler severe than the statute of Mazy rendered imperative. It wee, moreover, free from all doubt as to whe th er that old statute applied to the ran ee* as by law established. All those doubts were now re moved. He wished to make one other observation, which, however, bad perhaps better be left done. He had not had any case sone December lid with respect to those brawling* in the church. He did not repent of having on that occasion carried mercy to the verge of clemency and forbearance as he did. It was the find case brought before the court, and it was brought under a statute the penalties of which were very heavy. He thought that the people then placed before him were honest in their intentions, although they were mistaken in their views, and he thought it better to explain to them the law in order to induce them to refrain from strong expressions of opinion, rather than for the first time put in force the severe penal ties of the Made. He knew that It had been matter et animadversion that the court did not red the three decent men then before it to rises, but lie must be allowed to say, and he hoped he should never have warier to revert to the subject, that theme enimsdveraions came with • very bed • - from those who, when the court sent -- s fry Depntyiii;i:drsaid he bad greet pleasure in seconding the motion. The hall bad bees mad for charitable purposes for the Poles, and' other foreigners, and last year it was used for the same purpose by the licensed victualer's, sod he was happy to say that it was the means of obtaining an addition of 1001. to their fluids; and he hoped it would laid toe similar result to the Bias Brigade. The motion was then put and carried nuanhnonsly. Deputy HAIIIIIION then brought up • report of the Coal. Corn, and Finance Committee, which, among other things, recommended that a grant of 1,0001. should be made from the hinds of the corporation to the British and Foreign School Society. The hon. member, in the course of • very eloquent speech, urged the important beuellts derived by the country from the labours of the society in the cause of education, and said that • building was in the course of erection at Stockwell, for the purpose of training young women to act as schoolmistresses in this country and abroad. The cost of this building would be 18,0001., and 7,0001. of that turn was still required to be rained, and he said he was sure that the Corporation of London would readily as in carrying out such an important work as the ed.ication of the chalren of the poorer cheeses, of all reli gious sects and denomination, which was the object this society bad in view ; and he concluded by im.ving that the report be agreed to and carried out. Mr. Cocerfteu mid he should not oppose the motion altogether, but he considered the amount was too large, and le moved that the sum of 5001. be given, instead of 1,0001. Dr. ADRAZAM seconded the amendment. He thought the corporation ought not to listen too varioatly to such au application for 1,000!. to be taken out of the funds of the corporation, particularly when they remembered that they might very shortly be called upon to provide half-a-million of mangy for one particular object. Mr. H. L. TATUM said the only question was, whether was sot too Lege a sum to give, and he, for one, that it was. In point of (act, they were called L ea . t . s .....A rdiscribe one -eighteenth pert of the entire east of A.‘77cisis further discussion the amendment and the 2gnteelau were put to the court, and the former was te be carried.

THE WINNFIELD POISONING CAM 001LIIITTAL OF THE PRISONER. WAKEFIELD, TEICIADAT. The examination of Emma Stringer, maimed of poisoning Miss Adamson, of Aggbrigg, her mistress, the admiaistratice of arsenic in small doges, was rimmed this moraine before the county magistrates, Mr. K Tow in the chair. The court was again crowded by speeteices, and the interest in the proceedings seemed to be maressing rather than diminishing. Mr. Shaw again appeared for the proescution, and Mr. 'Wheelhouse fur the deknee. The first witness was Mary Link, the daughter of the woman who was called La to ambit in laying out Mies Adamaon's body. She stated that she was a drasamaker, and worked occasicselle for Miss Adamson.

Zama Struve was third THE LEEDS NLOPEMINT AND NOBBERY. On Wednesday, at Leeds Town-hall, the court was again crowded with persons anxious to hear the further examination of Thomas and Benjamin Bamford, the former sharged with being _an acoomplice in the robbery of money and goods from Mr. Barker, grocer, of Leeds ; and the fitter Benjamin Bamford, with receiving 001. in cash, well knowing the same to have been stolen. Mr. Samuel Ripley, landlord of the Old Foundry Inn, Hull, stated that lie knew the two prisoners, and also Mrs. Barker, the wife of Mr, Barker, the prosecu tor. On Saturday week he met Mr. Barker in Lowpta Hull, and she then gave him a roll of notes to take charge of for her, He took the money home and deposited it in a drawer, without counting it, or indeed without doing more than cursorily examining it.. The same day, at Mrs. Barker's request, he took two notes from the roll, and gave them to her. They were two 51. notes of the Bank of England. On Monday week he come to Leeds, and heard the examination of the elder Bamford before the magistrates. He also saw Mrs. Barker and Benjamin Bamford after. Thomas Bam ford had been remanded, but the woman did not then men tion the money to him. On the Tuesday after (Tti , e.mlay week) he delivered the money up to Benjamin Ran ford, because he had heard so much of the ease he wished to be rid of it. He knew Benjamin was coming to Leeds, and he banded over the money so that the younger prisoner might give it to the party (Mrs. Barker) who had deposited it with him. Benjamin Bamford, when he (witness) saw him, said be was over in Hull on a visit, because the place at which he worked was not running, in conseqoence of the feast. Mr. John Simpson, waiter at the Brunswick Hotel, Harrogate, was next sworn. He said he bad seen Mrs. Barker and the elder Bamford on some previous occasion, but he could not swear they were the pair who slept at his hotel on the evening of the 25th of August. Both prisoners were committed for trial, Thomas Bam ford on the charge of felony, and Benjamin Bamford for receiving 901. in bank notes, knowing the same to have been stolen. THE FATAL ACCIDENT AT DOPER,-INQUEST. On Wednesday evening, the Coroner for Dover, Mr. W. H. Payn, opened an inquiry into the circumstances attending the death of Emma Cough Lawrence, a young lady age d 24 years, who had been drowned on the pre ceding day, through • boat which she was in coming in ' contact with • stake fixed in the ground for fishing par- Frederick William Lawrence, brother of the &mimed, after &scathing the manner in which the accident occurred, as stated in our paper yesterday, said, in answer to the jury —I bad seen the stakes before, at low water, but had no Idea at their formidable oat are. I have seen stick, used abroad for fishing purposes ; but have always found them mere withes which would yield to • boat on its being rowed over them. I have frequently rowed over such in China, where they are commonly used, without accident. William Clark, mariner, of Dover, said that it was not usual to place stakes of this description along shore. He moldered them very dangerous. At high water they were quite covered. Fdward Sneller, • coastguard stationed at East Cliff, said his attention MU directed to the accident by the cries and shrieks of the persons in the water. He law the boat bot tom upwards and some four or live persons near to it. He got a boat after running about 150 yards and rowed to the spot, where he assisted in getting one lady out el the water. He took her ashore, and afterwards went off again, and by means of a line with • hook attached recovered the body. Witness sambaed is putting down the @tithes in question three or four months ago. He did so at the direction of Mr. Broodier, of 4, Hubert-terrace. He could not lay by whose authority Mr. Breadley acted. By the Jury—lt did not strike nie in putting down the stakes that they were a source of danger. Previous to the vessel driving ashore a danger pole was up, but the wreck carried It away, and it has not been replaced. There has been nothing more to intlieate that the place was dangerous, and a stranger would therefore not have known of the danger these stakes occasion. I have seen stakes of the tame description used at other parts of the coast, at Dun. mess, and at other places, for fishing. Mr. Breadley paid me for what I did in putting down the stakes. After • short consultation the jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death," adding that they were unanimously of opinion that the manner in which the stakes were placed in the sea was highly dangerous, and recommending the matter to the consideration of the proper authorities. It is said that the coroner will first put himself in com munication with the authorities in whom the control of the spot where the accident took place rests, to ascertain if the man Bradley obtained permiaiion to drive these stakes into the ground and leave them with their tops a few inches under the water without exhibiting a proper danger signal. MARIaT& OOTTON.—Lxvziroot , , Ocr. 4.—A good business has been dune to-day with a very 6rm market. The ales are 10,000 Wee—including 8,020 American, 30. to Btd. ; 1,600 Surat, 31d. to 44d. ; 300 Egyptian, aid. to 10 d. ; 120 Per taro, nil. to Ad. ; and 00 Mamnbam, Bi4l.—of which 3,000 are for speculation and export. The week's import is 4,066 WOOL AND WORSTED.—BRADTORD, Ocr. 4.—Very little wool has clasn, ,, ed hands during the week in any department of the trade. Yvery one sees in reporting wool quiet, but firm. A fair businsia, no doubt, is doing, as in deed must be the case when the consumption is so con siderable, but lees wool sold than two or three weeks back, spinners having, as we said last week, supplied their im mediate wants. Hogs end withers may be quoted 0 la 10d . and ls. Bd. respectively, at which prices they us very firm. In worsted yarns, spinners are still busy for export, and a few late Russian orders are yet going out, but the home consumption is languid. Buyers and sellers are both unwilling to concede anything, the former refuse to give the high price of yarn, except where they are obliged, and the latter are unable to take less, so long as wool con tinues (as it appears likely to do) at its present high price. There is no buoyancy in the piece market to-day. Except for operations of the American houses, which do something to prop up the market, things would be exceedingly heavy. Neither the foreign nor the home buyers show. the least activity. CORN.-Ennwilionan, °crop= 4.-Although we have had during the last fortnight frequent heavy rains, the month just expired has been on the whole much more favourable for harvest work than the previous on% and a considerable portion of the corn is secured ; little of ii however in condition fur thrashing at present. So far, the yield of wheat, barley, and oats, in this neigh bourhood Ii well reported of ; but we cannot think that this will prom to be the case with the late wheat. In the early part of the month wheat declined about 4s. per qr., of which fully 2s were subsequently recovered, owing to the weather becoming less favourable, aid so little new wheat being brought to market. This advance has taken place notwithstanding the imports of foreign wheat have doubled those of the corresponding period last rear. Large as the American supplies have they do not so far this year nearly those from Prussia. It was expected that the Plumb export duty this month would have become prohibitory from their principal corn skipping ports, but no alteration i occurred ; consequently we May look forward to a Continu ance of the supply from France, sod to • girder extent than hitherto. Potatoes in most of the Southern aud Mid land counties of England go worm and worse, and the crop is them districts may almost be considered lost as bonnie food. Our present prices for wheat are, Engli sh whiter old, Bs. to 0616 d. ; new, 6s. &L to Bs. ; red, o 7s. Bd. to Bs. ; Dew, 6s. Bd. to is. &L ; American, 71. .to Ohirka, 7s, 2d. to 7s. &L ; Danubian, to 7e., pm 62 lbs. at Birmirigharn. It will be seen that the stock of wheat at Glouoester has greatly increased. The crop of Mel , / Las proved a very large one, but the condition mostly indifferent, and in many instances the quality is much dete. riomted by the weather. Au advance of La to 2s. per qr. has taken place on most deocriptions. Danish barley sells at 36e. to 38e. ; Disk, 33e. to Me. ; Taganrog, 330. to 3 . ; lbraila, 28s. to Va., all per 3.92115., here. Gate also prove to be the largest orop . which has been grown for many years, and the beet in quality, except where in jured by the weather. New have . declined about 2s. per at quarter, whilst the value of old is nearly, or quite, main- Mimed. English old cats are selling alls. to 36e. ; new, 265. to 28a ; Irish old grey, 28a. ; new, Mia 6d. to 265. &I ; old white, 28e. to 30s.

Barley, oats, and beans also at prices in favour of the seller. - - • - NZWIIIIILY, Oct. 4.—The supply of wheat this day only moderate, for which there was a good consumptive demand at an advance of from ls. to fia. per qr. on both old and new, the latter giving strong evidence of its deficiency both as regards quantity and quality. An increased supply of barley which led to a reduction of from le. to 2a. per qr.
