THE EXPRESS TUE.q)AY EVENING, APRIL 10, 1860. THR RECORDRR OP BIRMINGHAM ON SUNDAY TRADING AND DRUNIZNNZSS. At the Birmingham Sessions yesterday, Mr. Has, I Q.C., the &reorder, maid :-0n the evening below the deli very of my first charge from this beach, in the year 1839, it s., happened that a riot had occurred in the town of Bir mingham of an appalling description, and I felt myself called upon to observe upon that not, and to state what eould be the consequences if such conduct was not sup poo..ed try the strong hand of the law. It so happens that just sop have completed the 21st year of my reoordership a similar circumstance should have to be observed upon. List evening —the evening of the Lord's day—an assemblage of persons, I learn, took place, not so fearful in point of num bers, or in point of strength as the one to which I have re (erred, and therefore not causing so much alarm in the town, I but yet one that cannot be passed over without anirnadver eiori.• It was composed, as I have learned, of the refuse of this large town. lam not surprised to find that • great number of persons can be collected together for any bad in the town of Birmingham. because the quarterly exhi *tions of misconduct wh i ch we have in the front of this building have painfully convinced me that the number of persons ready to join in any mischief, or in anything revolting to all feelings of morality or religion, can be found here. Gentlemen, the real or ostensible motive for this meet ing was to complain that the law of the land regarding Sunday trading had been put in force. Gentlemen, there is upon the subject of Sunday trading differences of opinion as there is upon every subject. Some have thought that it ought not to be made the subject of law. This is matter for fair discussion, but I do not think it would receive that fair !discussion among a crowd such as that assembled yesterday afternoon, nor do I think—and there I am rare you will with me—that the Lord's day is the best to be sel for such a purpose. But, gentlemen, the ques tion with us is not what the law ought to be, but what Use law is. Let those who dears a change do their best to ob. tain it in a peaceable and nthiemal manner. If I have formed a correct estimate of the people of this country It will be a very long time before a popular feeling anew that the new law might to be changed. But I have not a word to ass in reproof against those who think differently, but I would ask them to take the means which the constitution affords of carrying their opinions before parliament to ob tain the change. But as I said before, the ire's. tions for the consideration of all obedient subjects and for those who are entrusted srisi, ohs aitasieis‘nittou of the law, is not what it should be, but what it is. So long as the law regarding Sunday trading is on the Statute book we must obey it, and it is the bounden duty of three who are entrusted by their Queen with the respon sible power of administering the laws to do their best to carry them into effect. lam informed that some laxity of practice had grown up in this borough in regard to the well known statute of Charles 11., prohibiting Sunday te nding; and I am told that the authorities of the town took a step which I think most advisable. They did not proceed at once to pat the peed pert of the law into effect, but being rer- L seel e s sk el Irma of the most respectable inha bit ving ants of the This was I= l. by e v Zfyis illsa sisralts g ; nioetees oat of tweedy of the atoms we smelly opened on Sunday remsined demi. I sapeall was a witness yesterday morning that the amber of shmksepers who now open on Sunday b very M. lan also ebb to contrast the appearance of the analapatarday with what they were four or five years r al lir sivz hen I went out during divine service for the purpose what was the state of the town. I came back the disorder that I saw. The contrast yeast. C w wee very c heering. Gentlemen, there are some shop. who, in spite of the warning, and of the open and lertneer in which the authorities have acted towards them, eland oat and eh the law at open defiance. Now, put it to yenraelves—What ought and what must rth ig r:inees takes by tbe authorities ! They have been rec a. called tr 444 ble portion of the borough to compel to the law. The respectable shop. keep= el town ha ve the law. Are the authori ties to permit those who set law at defiance to have the monopoly of the Sugar bade ? It is quite clear that that ought ant to be so. litreuld be much better to go back to the former state of chi pa Det, in order to do that, the authorities mast forged their oaths upon becoming members of the town maned or her Majesty's justices of the peace, boresthey being bound to take the best means to the her. II doh amtkamen a cry has been raised that the wept= lee hem resorted to. I am sure that ma tyre peed Met will not be frightened !iy • cry—you 1141111Mthe laill Os hmidation of disavow', and judge ef it s net by represehes mode, but by facts and arguments. Whet is Maly mild the spy system is one which every be. sea most Ilelset to the core of his heart.

I should be the had .me to justify sub a step.

But If be hopes-1f he is offering to transact the business of the asp oa the Lord's day, the policeman goes there for the of bringing him to justice ; and when he is V, broug t, eta anything be more ridiculous or absurd than that he should turn round and complain that he has been trapped ? At the same time I believe that the execu tion of this law demands. as I believe it has received, the grcate• arnaside rat too on the part of the authorities, not to do harm while they are endeavouring to do good. It is so, gentlemen, of e law which interferes with the private affairs of mankind. Its administration is a matter of great discretion and delicacy, and especially is that true of the adminetration of a law which is so nit/- mealy connected with the religion of the oonntry. I am sure the authorities of the town would grieve if they found that by their attempts to enforce the law, and merely pro duce an outward conformity with the duties of religion, they had in truth hardened the minds of the people against the law ; for it is not difficult to understood how the law may force a man to close his doom and retire into the in terior of his house, and while there do that over which the law can have no control—indulge in angry and malevolent feelings against the authorities, the law. the legislature, std the whole scheme of government, and moreover shut his mind up against all the precepts el religion. Gentlemen. lam disiromt if Fly voice can mks be way to the great popukaon of this town, to caM spun those who are more sedoias thaa dimmest not to peen toe vim:moody upon the authorities, but toleave them to the swans of their own good sense upon these matters. Gentismen. I was about to say that there was another &swim& to the estalection with which I observed what came emir mq mhos yesterday, and that is that I have received a essinsunitaboa from an inhabitant of this town, who h a stranor to ma but whom I have ascots/ad to he a thereughly rempeotelde person, complaining that the pendia ef lotteries held in puhtic.howies had been re vive& the prim being sometimes intoxicating liquors and sanistisees money, but In either case drawing persons who should beetme subscribers into these public.houees, in the bops that being there they would be led into expendi ture. It so happens that four or Bye years ago . this came under my notice, and I took some pains to 7s= the state of the law, and I showed by the act of =sot that persons taking part in such lotteries were the law, and I warned all such that if similar cases mine under my notice, I should, if a fitting case arose, alther wafer with the magistrates or lay it before her Majesty's Attorney-Ger eral for • state prosecution ; and, gentlemen, permit rue to repeat that warning, and to say that, so far as ray powers may attend, these lotteries shall not be suffered to exist, and these who institute them shall be made to feel the full weight of the law. Gentlemea, we are, as it appears to rne, in • very im p or tant crisis se regards the vice of drinking—the cures el the nation. I say many whom I have the honour to edam= have taken part in societies for the purpose of r and discouraging, as far as their inflame e= the habit of indulging in intoxicating liquors. ' Gentlemen, when we consult the statistic's which are pi& lish..i upon the aide of drink we have rearm to believe that the labours of these societies, joined with the Moors of those who do their best in other ways to the well being of their fellow-wen, have had coandera6le West. At the same time, we must not fall into the corer el that because something has been done much moon lees not remain to do. lam led into this strain of observation by a great measure, which has no doubt occupied your mind, as it has that of all thinking men. It has so happened that the Queen's ministers being under the impreesion—which, perhaps, I may say, in my humble opinion, is a well founded impression— that any steps which would go to smith this country in commerce Those completely with any othereouatry, and with France, our nearest ueighbour were very much to b e desired, • treaty has been entered into by which it becomes incumbent on this country to lower the tax on French wines ; and the ministers, again acting wisely, as I think, have felt that they could not lower the duty on French wines without lowering the duties on the wines of other countries. The consequence then is, or soon will be, that all wines will be introduced into this country at a re duction of duty. Now, it is believed by the able ministers who have brought forw ard this plan that the effect of such reduction will be a great addition to the consumption of wines in this country, and that opinion is founded upon irrefragable principles, because we have any alziap found that reduction in the cost of a a article of consumption increases the purchase of that article by the people at large, and generally in a ratio exceeding that of the diminution in the price. But in order that the revenue shall not be in danger by this indulgence— in order, that is to say, that the increased consumption nag supply the diminution of the revenue ocean ed I by lowering of the duty, it Is further intended to vigmeart the number of retailers of wine ; and, gentlemen, An expectation that such sognientation will increase the esasumption of wine is also founded upon principles and won facts that cannot be disputed. It ha been found, as we all know, that in regard to the Post-office the reduction in the poetege of letters very much increased the correspon- dem* ef the country. But perhaps von are not so well emus that low since that redaction of wite, g e the MUltipa. cation of familiar has etenewitsly increased the number of ' letters. You know that the number of post-offices has been wonderfully increased ; but I would call your atten tion to a metier while may surprise you. Some • The learned recorder slimier! to a meeting bold on tie previous evening (Sowlay). whereat the perms effiemmani ea thenseelves stroog r t but re,t in an err* war 7 essoner. afaisst 'n attempt. moistly ands by the Watch Comemttoe to maw* suppress Sunday Una% short time ago the itowelary for the Post-office prop..J. and the Peelometer.Genaral assented to, the proportion that the metrojolit should be divided into ten specific districts. so that Leaden may be said to be cut up into ten part towns, as distinct as If miles away from each other. The effect of this change, which gives to each postal district its own office, is very mach to facilitate the posing of letters from one district to another, The combined erect of the lowering of the poets. 20 years ago with thi s recen t mut mentoion of facilities is the one lam about to mention. It struck me with astonishment, and it is this—that the me tropolitan district, composed of these ten divisions, has as many letters posted and circulated in its own district as were sent in all England sod Wales, London in• chided, at the time of the iwititution of the penny postage. Gentlemen, I cannot but think that there is good ground for believing that the proposed changes will produce • very urge increase in the consumption of wine ; but I am in formed, and truly, I believe, that it is not expected that this consumption of wines will be to the prejudice of the present consumption of malt liquors ar spirits. Who are, then, to be the ooceumers of these wises ? Not those who drink beer, because I think they have too much ; not those who drink spirits, became they have certainly too much already ; nor those who are temperate, and at present addicted to use harmless beverage of water. Are they to be led to C 00•0•11 WWI, which they did not as 'be fore t or are the eommasers of wise now to be lot to la mese that cweisemption t I hope not. But, gentleatia, although the able Walton who bring forward this measure state that the Ihmacisl object is subordinate to the moral object, I have my taus that, as it will no doubt in crease the consumption of wines, it is not • measure which will promote sobriety. Gentlemen, lam addressing you as no partisan. The observations I have node are foroed upon ma bas a sensed duty. I sit here to try pri soners, and watch as well as I can to ascertain what was the origin of the crime, and in a vest majority of cases I can see distinctly that it bad its origin in drinking habits. I could not, therefore, permit thisopportunity to pees with out offering such observations. Delighted shall Ibe if they can receive a satisfactory answer, and that our fears shin be found to be exaggerated. The learned recorder then alluded to the introduction of the lighter kind of wines, and stated nouns to show that, as the duty would be taken off all wines the stronger kind would increase in emouroption in greater proportion than the 'tight wines of France. He trusted that it might not be so i but if the experiment 4. L. trie4 foiled tu a ew.J it would be an evil dry indeed for tau ..,untry when this plan was introduced. He apologised to the jury ford . = them so long, but he was an old man, had eat in Criminal Justice for forty years, se that his mind bad loan turned to this subject, that he had seen family after family, individual after individual, beoorn• • prey to intoxicatk ruining themselves body end soul, throwing the burden of maintaining their families on the public--families who had become the victims of their own or their parents' folly. They could not wonder that he should in season, and it may be out of emus, urge upon all within the reach of his voice the necessity of removing this carve from our land. The mad jury then retired to their chamber. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. The April quarter sessions commenced yesterday morning at the Guildhall, Westminster, before Mr. Bodkin, aasistemi-jedge ; Mr. Payne, deputy ; and the fol lowing full Math of megletratee—Mr. H. H.

Foulaham stated that there were 13 previous con victions against Farrell, who, without exception, was the worst boy they ever had to deal with in Westminster Priion, end one against Kennedy. The mother of the Tatter said she had five sons, and none of them had ever been in prison at all. Foulsbam said that was a very false assertion, as the boy Kennedy, end a brother were in the prison at the same time for atesuipting to pick pockets. The Amistent.Judge sentenced Farrell to six years' penal servitude, and Kennedy to three years at the reformatoey for this county, at Feltham. William Taylor, 22, was indicted for stealing a cost in the dwelling-house of William I)awsey Belby. The door of the house being left open for a moment after the prosecutor got home, the prisoner walked into the pimps end put on a coat which Mr. Selby had net takes of awl 11.....ag tap.

He pleaded guilty. Mr. qweared on his behalf. The prosecutor carried on business as a boot and shoe maaufacturer, &c., in Tottenham-court-road, and there was reason to believe that the prisoner, who had been in hie service between six and seven years, had been plundering him daring the greater part of that time. 40/. worth of property was found in his bedroom by the policeman in the case, Lambert, a E. The Assistant...fudge said it was a very bad came, and the court must peas a sentence that would °paste as a warn ing to servants that, however long and ruocerefully they may rob their employers, detection will follow and punish ment fall upon them. The sentence upon him was 18 months' hard labour. A watch which the prisoner purchased some months ego was given up to the prosecutor by order of the court. Thomas Mortis, 26, groom, was indicted for fraudulently obtaining four brushes from Thomas Burman, with intent to defraud. The prisoner had been a helper in Lord Camp bell's stables, Stratheden-house, and after he had left that service he went and obtained these brushes, representing that he was still employed at the Lord Chancellor's stables, and that the brushes were for use there. The prisoner ad mitted the offence, but urged that be had done it through trouble and distress. The Court said under the circumstances a very lenient sentence would answer the ends of justice, and sentenced the prisoner to two months' hard labour. Frederick Frazer, 27, was indicted for having stolen two coals, value 31., the property of John Hodges. Mr. li`Donnell was counsel for the prosecution ; Mr. Sleigh defended the prisoner. There were some very curious circumstances in this case. There was no doubt that on the 26th of November last two costa were stolen from No. 1, Howley Villas, Paddington, and that two coats now produced were the Name. On the Bth of March, the prisoner was taken into custody with another man on • different charge, and in his N.rnslon the anon (Sergeant &den, 11 1 ) who bad hlm ound th ese two coats, which he had that very day re deemed, and which he pawned the very day they were stolen, at Mr. Dobree's, in Gilbert-street, Oxford-street. Hs was therefore charged with having stolen them, and the defence was, that on the day of the robbery the prisoner was out with his brother, who is an actor, distributing bills fora benefit for the latter, when they called at a wardrobe shop in Devonshire-street, Limon-grove, kept by a Mrs. Jones, for the purpose of leaving • bill for exhibition in each of her windows, when • man came in and offered to sell her the coats, asking 255. for them. Mrs. Jones did not purchase them, as she could not then spare the money, and the prisoner, thinking he would catch a bargain, offered to buy them, and ultimately the stranger agreed to take 21s. for them, and, being short of money himself, the prisoner went and pawned them, and by an extraordinary coin cidence he redeemed them on the very night he was taken, ant i laawned them on the very day they were stolen. Jones and the prisoner's brother were examined, and they deposed to these facts in the main, but they differed y in their description of the stranger, and by way of fixing the date, Mrs. Jones said she had brought the playbills which were left at her shop by the brothers on that particular day, but she had unfortunately lost them while she had been in attendance at the court ; but the brother said he was sure of the date, as his benefit was on the 29th, and this occurred on the preceding Saturday. The jury, after some deliberation, found the prisoner Gwaty. The police-sergeant then stated, in answer to the spurt, that he and another officer (White, 310) were induced to watch the prisoner and another man from observing them loitering suspiciously about houses in Upper Berkeley-street and Portmansquare ' • and in Seymour-place the prisoner was seen to unlace his hoots and go stealthily down an area, the other man keeping watch. In • few minutes the prisoner rushed up the steps, he taking one side of the street and his companion the other, the officers in pursuit. On the prisoner being taken he said he had only been to see a gig who lived there, Emily Dorman . • and the sergeant " Well, you ean easily prove that if it be tnie." The prisoner said , " Well, take me back." "No ;" mid the officer,. "you take me back and show me the house," and the p risoner, having mistaken the right one, went to three before he came to that where he had paid his visit. The prisoner said to the butler, "Now, didn't I come here and ark for Miss Emily Dorman? "Yin," answered the butler, "you did, but you bad no business here, and no such person lives here, and never did." On the floor they found a key with whi ch it seemed the kitchen door had been opened, and when the butler, to his surprise, found the prisoner in the kitchen he asked about Mies Emily Dorman and ran away. The prisoner had been twice in custody for loitering, and it was believed that he had served four years' penal servitude, but the officer who had him then could not be found. The prisoner, a tall, muscular young man, said Le could not deny that his character had but latterly he had got an honest living by sitting, with a brother and others, to artists. The police do him because they knew he Lad been in trouble and because baked lived with a young woman, whom be took away from one of them not now in the force, who left his own wife to live with her, and it was he and others that had put these officers on to him, out of spite and to get him out of the way. The officer said the woman was a notorious thief. The Assistant-Judge said if this were true, which it was impossible to believe, it could not have been in consequence of any spite of the police th►t the prisoner and his brother went to an old clothes shop end bought the coats, nor could it have been from the same reason that he went down the area. He concurred in the verdict, but should direct in quiries to be made ; and if the result of them were such as he anticipated it would be, the utmost punishment the law allowed would be inflicted. As to the defence, he should consider whether the witnesse, should not be prosecuted for perjnry. The prisoner said there was no perjury in the case, and he yea es innocent as any one in court. Judgment deferred till next sessions. PETTED MURDERERS. In referring to the proceedings preliminary to the execution at Bedford of Jana Cagle, be the murder of his wife, the isrffeed Mawr, says e We publish the details forle k ramee d oalteks tastagainet the treatment murderer experienced at the hands Ttholt"Y. wises tody he was placed It is long since we have read so thoroughly disgusting as the record of the daily this petted inmate of • condemned cell. We have ahoy, been opponents of the punishment of death, on the ground that it is unauthorised, brutal, brutalising, and undone ; but if we had ever looked with favour on the gallows as a social defence or • moral teacher, our faith in ite edlesey would have been shattered by the arguments which aro pes seated in the treatment of Castle. Here was • min coevided of the murderof his wife under eircunistances of extreme atro- city. The crime was not the result of sudden passion : the murdered woman was not struck down by an angry Wow which did injury beyond the intent of him who delivered it ; nor weir the crime regretted. The murder was dabs rate, premeditated ; and from the time of its conusimica to the last moment of life the law allowed him the mur derer had no thought except for himself. While he bed yet days to live, he was only intent on what he should alit and drink, and selfishly and morosely sensitive if the pleasures his sensual appetite demanded were not famished on the instant, and without objection. Even when his sands were nearly run out, and while the hammer was yet ringing upon the bolts of the gallows, he was solicitous ante about himself. He had no regret., and experienced no re pestence, so far as the report discloses. For his s = sleeping the sleep of death in the bloody he had wrought for her with guilty hands, he had no sorrow. She seems rarely to have occurred I. his mind ; and the heinousness of his guilt appears to have been wholly unfelt. He grew restless Us wards the last, but give utterance to the language of tenor rather than of yid and self-abasement. But this phase pawed away, sad when the hour appointed for the execu tion drew so neer that the unexpired minutes might be molly counted, and the decent feeling of the °facials wog 'sited that the man who was appointed to die should be roomed from his slumbers to confront the awfulness of l oo. position—the murderer petitioned for • little more slp ke thesssi.* ores his saaind " is not for us to question that in his Wert moments better thoughts were given to him ; or that hope, who never Mrs her golden gates, opened them to him fis his extremity—if perchance the self-seeking man, de the dread tumult of the death-hour, sought pease through repsetarice. Our object is—without repeat ing the recital which appears elsewhere—to indicate the fact that throughout his imprisonment and after his condemnation, C astle was brutally sensual, and selfishly indifferent to everything except the gratification of his appetite, and to his own personal danger; and that it was upon this man the officials of the gaol lavished their sympathy and regards in such • manner as to make con demnation to death rather a thing to be desired than avoided by that class of morbid egotists which furnishes ne with murderers and suicides. It naturally suesesta itself to one's mind as most proper in the case of a murderer that, after his condemnation, whether he he sentenced to be hung or to be imprisoned, as little notice should be taken of him as possible. He should receive the prison allowance of food, and the visits of the chaplinn. For all else he had better be kept out of sight and out at Wad. It is utterly revolting that • man con victed of the worst of crimes should be feasted and petted, tai his mind is overwhelmed with • sense of his own importanos. There is no conceivable reason why we should feel more interest in the murderer than in the pickpocket, whom we relentlessly consign to hard fare, the treadwheel, and forgetfulness—really nothing, except the fact that he is doomed to die. That probably is the explanation, and In itself constitutes a strong argument against a punishment which devel men in • gaoler, the kind of sympathy which board ops, echool girls used to feel for the villains of the sickly romances they read. But while the penalty of death remains, let us summon to our assistance enough of common sense, if not of hardness, to carry the law into effect with as much dignity and decency as is possible under the circumstances. Let us cease to fatten murderers for the gallows as oxen for market, and to conciliate their humours by them the option of reset fowl, or beef and pl um -p . Jus tice should be stern, though not cruel ; an d s h e m akes one doubt whether she be not • counterfeit,when she unites the functions of the restaurateur with those of the executioner. Certainly, much harm is done by the imprudent sympathy of her minister for those whom she has doomed to die the death ; and, perhaps, the Beechwood tragedy, so closely following on the heels of the disclosures of the discipline observed in the county gaol at Bedford, may to some extent have been caused by them. To desperate men, foiled in their unlawful pursuits, and with the fear of • renewal of vulgar imprisonment before them, the honours accorded to Castle, and the observation concentrated upon him, may have been too powerful • provocative to crime, which being as henious, ought be regarded as entitling them to equal indulgence, and to a similar ovation. WIFOLDIALZ SWINDLING a? YORIL—At the sea mless held at York, an Saturday, a man, who gave his aims keep►k Cockhill, was indicted for having obuined, by fs spefaeam,ofMr.Taylor, cabinet maker, oftheabove city, larly NM worth of furniture. The circumstances of this case are of a peculiar character. The prisoner took ► house to Hold gatelane, in the suburbs of York, and applied to the prose cutor for some furniture. On that occasion he represented himself as the brother of the postmaster at Sunderland, said he was a supercargo, and was in the re ceipt of 1,0001 a year, independent of mom pro. pert,' of which his wife was possessed. He also alleged that he had some furniture coining from Brixton, is Surrey. It was on there representations that the allega tion of the false pretence was founded, and it was esti factorily proved that all his statements were untrue. Soon after be had got possession of the furniture he sold a portion of it, and took the rest to Hull, where he was apprehended after attempting to take a revolver from his pocket for the of preventing hi capture. It seemed that in D ecember and January last not osly had several tradesmen in Sheffield and Leeds been honoured with the patronage of the pr t wner, but that previously the good people of Salford had been favoured with a visit from him. The jury found bim guilty, and he was sentenced to 12 months• hard labour.

On going to the house Mr. Sadler found an iron hoop, to which was attached a chain three yards long, and two new padlocks, which he seized.

THE POLICE C'OURTS. MANSION HOUSE. John Keating, a dapper little Irish shoemaker, one half of whose features was obscured by hair, and the other half by dirt, was charged with assaulting Ellen Leader, by stabbing her in the face with a knife. The prosecutrix, the left side of whose face exhibited a large circular p► of dicking-plaster, said—Please yer ho nours, my name's Ellen Lawler. Mr. Goodman (chief clerk)—And what is your husband's acme! Proaseutrix—Pat Breashanan„ (Laughter.) Mr. Goodman—Then, I suppose your name is Bross. Inman. Prossentrix—lnvd, no, yer honour; my name is Ellen lawler. (Laughter.) Mr. Goodman—How can that be if he's your htudiand? Your maiden name, you mean, I suppose, wee Lawler? Prceecutrix—Yes, my maiden name, and my name Dow, for though I call Pat my husband we ain't married • but we've lived together a long while, and he's a good hus band too. Mr. Goodman—Why did you not say at first that you were not married? Go on with your evidence. Prosecutrix—Well, on Saturday night I was sitting at supper with Pat, when who should come in but Moggy Quack ; so, says I, sit down Meg and have some supper but yer honours she was nasty, and got to words, and at last mays she, " U you are • woman, come down into the yard and hays it out." Very well Nog says I, 171 come down, an you know I ain't afraid of you ; and she says, I "No, I knows thst, I knows you are too good • woman for me," and that's right yer honours, because though I'm a ' quiet woman, I can stick up for myself like • good 'an, only I I didn't wea hurt her nor nobody. (Laughter. Well, when we got down stairs we quieted, a we wasn't • genii; to fight, but there was • mob at the door, and that there prisoner there made • rush at me, and pve me • job in the month with his fist, which loosened all my teeth, and then be jobbed at me apin with something in his head which I took to be • knife, and stabbed me the face, so I calla out, " Pat," says I, " he's made • hole in my face with a knife, and I'm kilt entirelv,"—(laiighter)— and then down I went, while Pat dashed out, and collared him. The hole ain't quite through my cheek, but it's • whacker and I hopes your worships will give me puttee tion. (Laughter). r.s Who, 11.183•1 as,, tri•lelammil ay Mr. Goodman—She says she is not your wife, though she lives with you. Witness—So she does, and an honest woman she is. Sir R. Carden—Why don't you make an honest woman of her ? Vitness—l don't mean in that way, but I mean that she too honest to meddle with anybody's business. Mr. Goodman—She an fight well, at all events, accord ing to her own confession. Witness--She's a regular good 'un, yer honour ; she's • rate beauty, and no mistake. Sir R. Carden—Then, why don't you marry her? Witnem—Well, I will, yer honour, I will ; but about this here prisoner.

That woman had been throwing some water over me just before, and when I went out again I took a little poker with me, and I hit her with that. It was a very little one, yet honour, but sharp at the end. Sir R. Carden—A poker wouldn't have cut like • knife. However, knife or poker I shall send you to prison for 21 da g .. cn trLx—And, oh yer honour, won't you bind him over to keep the peace towards me? Sir K. Carden—The police will protect you. rd rather bind you over not to live with that man again till you are married. Prosecutrix—And faith, yet worship, I'd not object to that. Pat &embaxas—And, your honour, I will marry her. 1.. e often talked about it, and now I'll do it. They then left the court. .MARKEI& THE FORSHIN CORN TRADE. (Prom the Mark Laic Express.) During the past week the Paris dour market has been in calm, with scarcely any quotable change of value ; the range of prices continued from 52 to El francs par 157 kilos. (equal to 335. 6d. to 375. per 280Ibs. English). The four marks were firm held fat 561. 25c., per 157 kilos. (355. 9d. per 280lhe ), with buyers at 56 francs. The wheat trade wee leis attended, partly from the large meeting of the trade at Poimy. Trsossctions were there fore extremely limited, and prices closed as quoted the vious week • choice panels pre bei held at . to 34f. per la hart. (535. 6d. per qr. ng ), good to 32f. 331 (49 50e 5.. per qr.) and ordinary as low as 26f. per beet. (435. per qr.i. ad r y ye was firm at 201. per 14 beet.

Oats were still more eagerly sought, at rather higher pricesln the country wheat markets prima were d y In from 6d. to ls. 3d. per qr. but Palmas was la. Id. per qr. cheaper. Wheat, at Nantes, being scares, arm Is. per qr. higher. Cloverseed, at Paris, was more in request, in consequence of the favourable weather, hot prise wears 9M. to 102 f. per bale fur rad. Trefoil, 38f. to 42f. per bale. In Belgium there has been a moderate improvement in wheat and rye. Barley also was rather dearer at Antwerp. Waremme was Is. per qr. dearer for wheat. The last ge neral averages for wheat and rye ware 49e. 6d. per qr. for the former, and 365. per qr. for the latter, against 48s. 9d. and 35e. 3 d. for the week previous. Wheat, at Termoncle, was active at from 50s. 6d. to 531. The Dutch markets, without excitement, were dearer. Wheat improved at Maastricht fully 2s. per qr., the top price being 54a per qr. Rotterdam prices also came high— say 52a. 6d. to 60s. for red and Polish qualities. Rye had also increseed in value to 38s. 6d. per qr. Wheat prime at Hamburg were improved fully 6d. to le. per qr., sales an the spot having been made at 50s. &L to 53s per qr. About 10,000 qrs. also were placed for de livery at from 475. to 495., with buyers still on the market. Rye also was firmer at from 275. 9d. to 355. 9cL for Belgium and Holland. Barley increasingly *came, to 31e. 6d. ; and Oats, 30a. 3d. The long frost had lately given place to mild and rainy weather. The weather at Danzig had varied, prevailing at last in the south-west. As the demand for wheat continued active and offers were but scanty, prices were rather higher. Placements had been made at from 475. 6d. to 50a. 6d. per qr. Rye also remained full-priced. The weather at Berlin bad been changeable, and•mostly wet. Since the re-opening of river navigation the ar ri vals had been numerous, there being a three months' accumu lation during the frost. Uneasy holders of rye bad there fore taken less money, while wheat, barley, peas , and oats were all more plentifully o ff ered than taken. had again become a heavy sale. A thaw having set in at Rigs, the roads had become im passable. The tendency of prices in corn was more calm. The same state of the country at Stockholm prevented supplies for the present from opining to hand. The little corm arriving was readily taken off ; wheat from 36.. 6d. to 46e. 6d. per qr., the most inquiry being for the best qualities. Rye sold readily at 27a Barley was rather higher. Oats, 17s. 6d. to 19s. 3d. Further demand from Naples both for soft and hard wheat, as well as the wants of the steam mills, had coca slimed free melee at Odessa, the week's business being about 30,000 qra of grain. Fully Is. per quarter more advance was quoted for hard and soft Ohirka wheat ; butSandomirka deacriptio well as rye, were without change. Wheat bad been selling at from 41e. 6d. to 475. A small cargo of oats wee p at llie. 6d. per. quaster. Wheat wee unaltered M Alexandria. Beans and lentils in very active demand for epeculation. The cora market at Trieste was firm, but not lively. The flour trade at Santander was firm, 40s. 6cL to 41e. per 280Ibs. English having been paid for first qualities. Sel le rs for delivery would take nothing leas than 40s. per 2801 he. The want of rain was severely felt in the province of Seville, but no damage was as yet experienced. The prevailing fears had, however, had the effect of raising prices, wheat being quoted 63.. to 74c ; but barley was still more influenced, being up to 375. &L per qr. In this place the best San tander flour was worth 55e. per 2801bs. Wheat also at Ali cante was rising, as much as 64a. 6d. being paid. Advice. from Chicago note that the weather had been remarkably fine, and the ground was fast being prepared for all spring sowings, and about two-thirds of the wheat was in. The autumn-planted differed in appearance, being invariably good where planted deep, but not other wise. The want of rain, however, for the western rivers, was serious, and it wee feared internal naviga tion must soon suffer. At New York the common and western grades of flour were rather improved in value; extra State &I. 50e. (2a. Bd.), fine extra Ohio to 6d. Mc. (255. 6d.), Genesee extra 7d. 50c.

FREIGHT MARKET.—Since the publication of our circular advicea the freight market has been well sustanod, and in many trades a decided improvement on the rate, quoted in our previous issue has been manifested. ward India freights still continue high, and it is difficult w prevail on charterers at this end to operate at anything the rates current at Bombay and Calcutta ; as t he sion still prevails with our merchant; that these high tot in India will be merely temporary ; the result is, that metv vessels usually chartered home before sailing are going ..ut free, owners being of course unwilling toe their vessels at leas rates than they would obtain if now loadin g in India. Outward berth freights from London and liv er . pool are still depressed, as the homeward cargo from Ina. promises again , after the lapse of some years, to tam 1 r the ship as much as the outward. The rates for coals 1., Shanghai are firm, at 60s. from Wales, and 62/. from the North, to Hong Kong 554. and 581., to Woosung 76 francs; to Singapore, 52L ; to Point de Gallo, 521. ; to Aden, 55. ; to Kurrachee, 521. 10s., or 52i. 6d. from Wales; and to Bombay 421. or 431. Homewards we can place tonnage at the following rates :—From Bombay (option of one port), cal.. ; from Colombo, 50s. ; from Ca lc utta , 70s. ; from the rive ports, 60s. ; from Moulmein (teak), 801. ; from Mamlit, 525. 6d. ; and from Batavia, 555. In the West India trade there is equal activity (and more business doing), several vessels having been chartered at improved rates ; 675. r:1. is now current from London to Truddad and home site, wpm, the same rate for Demerara and the Barbadoe N n e t 2a. 6d. per ton more for Jamaica orCuba. From the Black Si there has been some demand for tonnage, and foraml vessels have obtained 6s. 9d. per qr. for wheat from sou. Nash ; and 525. 6d. per ton for tallow has been paid fool the Sea of Azof. Vessels from the Danube have Nand ready charterers at 911. 9d. per 9r. ; from Alexandria so can obtain for small firstelses ships not yet sailed 4u re per qr. beans ; and from Smyrna one or two similar veleta would secure 6s. 6d. per qr. for wheat, other produce in propel. tion. Grain charterers from the Baltic are evincing woe eagerness to obtain vessels at our quotations from St. Petersburg Riga, Pernan, Dantric, and Memel, and in the timber freights from the North American colonies a better disposition is certainly exhibited.—(From the Circular of Messrs.
