AFFAIRS OF POLAND• The latest accounts from Warsaw tell of disaf fection in the Russian army, of the spread of the Polish Secret Society—which one might have been sure would tot be diminished by the exile of Count Andrew Zamoyski, the recognised spokesman of the moderate and therefore distinctly anti-revolu tionary party—and of profound irritation among all classes, caused by a new mode of conscription— or, rather, prescription—which leaves the selection of recruits entirely to the police, and by which any young man between the ages of 20 and 30 may, on suspicion of patriotism, not likely to be ill-founded, and on the report of a spy, be sent off to the army. Significantly enough, the peasants are exempted from the action of this decree. It is to be applied almost exclusively in the towns, which are natu rally the great centres of political and national feeling. Numbers of young men were trying to escape from Watsaw, and it was to be expected that some terrible act of vengeance would be pro voked by the tyranny and injustice of a measure which it would be difficult to match, even in the history of the Russian rule in Poland. On the other hand, and notwithstanding those first attempts at assassination, which the arrival of the Grand Duke in Warsaw in some inexplicable manner provoked, his Imperial Highness has really conferred some important benefits on the inhabi tants of the kingdom. There are now thirteen gymnasiums open where formerly there were only five, and Warsaw has once more its Univer sity, which is not the less a University because it happens to be ca ll e d a Hi g h school. This is not much, perhaps, but we must remember that pre viously there was no superior educational esta blishment in all Poland at which the Polish lan guage was even tolerated. Prussia, so earnest in requiring that the Germans—and even the Danes —of Schleswig shall be taught everything in Ger man, will not allow the three upper classes of the so-called Polish gymnasiums in Poson to receive instruction in Polish. Austria, after 1846, did not hesitate to Germanize the ancient University of Cracow, the continued existence of which as a national institution was specially guaranteed by the Treaty of Vienna. Russia swept the Univer sities of "Wilma and Warsaw away altogether after the Insurrection of 1830. This concerted plan to destroy the culture of a whole nation was, perhaps, more barbarous even than the partitions of the last century. It was an attempt, after the blood of tens of thousands of Poles had been shed, to touch the remainder on the brain so as to paralyse them for ever. It has had just the opposite effect, how ever, to what was intended. It has stimulated the national feeling, and often to so painful an extent as to cause insurrections, which, however hopeless in a political point of view, were, from moral causes, quite inevitable. By issuing a proclamation last month, calling upon the Poles to assist him in carrying out his reforms, the Grand Duke showed that he felt the impossibility of governing in any rational and humane manner without the concurrence, to some extent, of the governed. It was not likely that the members of the Secret Society would aid him. They have a programme of their own which they mean to put in action after the Polish Revolution and the Russian Revolution have taken place. But in the meanwhile upwards of 300 of the principal landed proprietors, on seeing the proclamation, came to Warsaw from various parts of the provinces and decided that they " in the absence of any legal organ," would reply to it by an address. This ad dress they confided to Count Andrew Zamoyski, requiring him as their representative to make known to his Imperial Highness demands which may be summed up as follows :—That all the provinces of ancient Poland now in the possession of Russia should be re-united, endowed with free institutions, and governed under a Polish administration. On the other hand, the authors of the address promised their faithful support to the Government. No such offer and engagement had ever before been made on the part of the Poles to an Emperor of Russia, and Alexander 11. has for the first time an opportunity of rallying round his throne a nation which, after having for a whole century stood firm against violence, now spontaneously promises him loyalty and fidelity on the sole condition of having its rights, as recognised by a treaty signed by the five great Powers, restored to it. The Pubes have no separate army, and ask for none. How, then, could Poland happy and contented be a greater danger to Russia than Poland, as she now is, in a state of despair, and perpetually on the verge of in surrection ? The Russian Government, by declaring all the Polish provinces under its dominion in a state of siege, has if possible increased the unity of feeling already existing,and which has never ceased to exist, between the kingdom ceded to Russia, under very precise conditions, in 1815, and the provinces vio lently torn from Poland by Catherine at the first, second, and third partitions. Russia's title to this last section, or sections, of territory was also recog nised by Europe for the first time in 1815, and then only on her formally engaging to govern all her Polish subjects as Poles, and to grant them " repre sentative and national institutions." It was not specified that they should all enjoy the benefit of the constitution which Alexander promised to grant, and did grant to the kingdom; but curiouslyenough, as it must seem to the Russians of the present day, the Emperor made a point of getting a clause in serted to the effect that he reserved the right of giving to his constitutional kingdom "the interior extension which he might think proper." It was at that time thought an immense advantage for Russia to have the opportunity of joining to her Empire a Polish kingdom but little inferior in extent to the Poland of 1772, and Lord Castlereagh, in giving a reluctant consent to that arrangement —so different from the one he had really at heart--expressed a hope " that the independence of Europe would in cur none of the dangers which might so justly be apprehended from the union of the powerful monarchy of Poland to the empire of Russia." Now it is Russia who insists on keeping herself weak, and who regards the proposition of a number of Polish noblemen that all the Polish provinces under her shall be united under one administra tion as a treasonable offence. Yet within the nar row limits traced for it in 1815 the kingdom of Poland has become for Russia an ever-increasing source of perplexity, to such a degree that the idea of giving it up altogether is at this time, if not agreeable, at least familiar to most Russian states- ratn. Such a policy has even been advocated in Russian journals published under the Imperial cen h:mhip, more especially in the Day, which has Penly recommended the withdrawal of the Russian a rmy from the kingdom and the entire abandon ment of that portion of Polish territory to the Poles. The addr„, Placed in the hands of Count Zamoyski "ggcsts di fortify instea4Y fferent solution. It promises to and the Rereantotarevering the tie between Poland kinaply that the Emperor ; and the condition is secured to him of Russia, using the pri vilegetrar.sfer fro m St. Petersburg by the Treaty of Vienna,shall of administration of the polish to Warsaw the centre Russian provinces, now i.^_- all with the all his Polish subjects th at ' flapire, and grant to national institutions" - ose " rqwesentative and which the fi ttni e treaty entitles them to demand. It is more than probable that concil j a s t with the king ilia union of the Polish p rov i ng adminis eona would have sufficed to to " heal the wound" which, accord e in the poles eminent Russian pu b l i c i sts of all parl to th e most Such a n enfeebling effect on all Russia's ra B' has movement s . This idea of reun ion is b y no me ans newovelt was encou raged by the Emperor Alexander to the la *lay of his teign. He spoke of it as his « favourit t e project," and even took steps towards realizing it by creating with the recruits 'of the Polish p ro , virics not included in the kingdom a distinct corps trarmee, called "the Lithuanian Corps." The Lithuanian colours were very like those of the re gular Polish army, end both armies were corn nwnded in chief by the Grand Duke Constantine, uncle of the:present Grand Duke of the same name . . The Emperor Nicholas himself advanced this combination a step further. He transferred to Warsaw the supreme direction of the Administra tion of those provinces, and confided it to his eldest brother, who had just ceded to him his right to the Throne. This measure did not reunite the provinces to the kingdom of Poland, but it detach d them from the Administration of St. Petersburg, nd little more was necessary to melt into one the two Ad ministrations whose seat was in the same capital. It would have sufficed to give to the br( ther of the Emperor, already residing in Warsaw, already com mander-in-chief of the two armies, the viceroyalty of those two portions of the country. But at that time the very existence of these two armies distinct from that of Russia might have caused a fear lest the administrative separation might become the prelude to an inevitable rupture. This danger no longer exists. The Poles have no distinct army. There is now only one for the whole Russian empire, and the most devoted patriots of Poland in making their demands in full do not think it necessary to ask the Czar to grant them one national regiment. All they desir e is that the inha bitants of that part of Poland which produced Kos ciusko, Mickievicz, and the Czartoryski family may be governed as Poles. They have no wish to injure Russia or to keep her in that constant state of irrita tion from which it is evident she cannot escape until she recognises the legitimate claims of all her Polish subjects. At the present moment this curious ano maly is represented in the Russian empire. In one portion Alexander 11. is endeavouring to introduce trial by jury, and a law equivalent to our Habeas Corpus Act ; in anoth er h e i s ru l ing b y the swor d , and striving to maintain a system based entirely on the barbarous right of conquest. To carry out Anglo-Saxon principles and INlongol principles side by side will be found a more difficult task than to govern Russians as Russians and Poles as Poles. THE _RUSSIAN EMPIRE. The fact that Count Panin, the Russian Minister of Justice, has been not " allowed to retire on ac- count of ill lac altb," but simply dismissed, has much significance when taken in connexion with the op position he is known to have recently made to the Emperor's projected law reforms. These reforms are of such immense importance that, if they had not been preceded in the same reign by the emanci pation of 23,000,000 serfs, they would have attracted the attention of all Europe. When Alexander 11. came to the throne the whole scheme of Govern ment in Russia seemed based on three great evils —serfdom, the knout, and a system of administra ion which, from its very completeness, enabled hungry and ill .paid functionaries to feed upon the people. Every one knows that serfdom has been put an end to, though the difficult question of the future relations between peasants and proprietors is by lo means settled. As to the "knout"—viewing it as ,he general symbol of stick-law, for the instrument called the knout has long fallen into disuse—a peasants who performed certain public duties, such as those of elder of the commune, village justice, &c., were exempted from corporal punishment by the Act of Emancipation ; and it is said that the Emperor has now determined to abolish that mode of correction altogether—indeed, that he has already signed an order to that effect, and that it was in reference to its promulgation that Count Panin made the objections which have at last led to his compul sory retirement from the Ministry of Justice. For the future all judges are to be irremovable, and completely indepetdent of the Administration ; all criminal cases of importance are to be tried by jury ; all judicial proceedings are to take place in public, and the press is to possess the right of re porting and commenting upon them ; finally, there is an end to the system by means of which a rich plaintiff or defendant could, to the ruin of a poor opponent, carry an action from court to court till it reached the Senate, and from the Senate to the Council of the Empire, where, in law proceed ings, the voice of the Minister of Justice was gene- rally all-powerful. Without wishing to detract from the merit of the Sovereign to whom the honour of introducing these beneficial changes justly belongs, we may at the same time remark that there is scarcely one that was not recommended to his Majesty's attention last winter by the Assemblies of the Nobility. To - ale. urged the necessity of separating judicial from administrative functions ; Moscow asked plainly and directly for the establishment of trial by jury ; St. Petersburg, without asking for anything, discussed in a very suggestive manner the advan- tages of an independent, irremovable, and unpaid magistt acy, the substitution of spoken for written evidence, the extent to which barristers and judges ought to be held responsible to the public for their arguments and decisions, and a number of other abstract legal propositions which it did not seem very probable at that time would soon take the form of concrete laws. The fact that the reforms now authorised had already been earnestly solicited is only a reason for concluding that they will be pro ductive of more real good than could have been ex pected from them, had not the classes whom they chiefly affect already given proofs of their ability to appreciate them. Under the new judicial system, town and country magistrates, or justices of the peace, paid and un paid, are to be elected from among the landed pro prietors by all classes of the population. The paid magistrates receive a fixed stipend together with their travelling and office expenses, including the salary of a clerk. The unpaid receive no emolu ments of any kind, but are otherwise on an exact equality with the paid magistrates, for whom they act as substitutes in case of absence or ill ness. Tney may also perform the functions of stipendiary magistrates whenever complainant and defendant both desire it; and magistrates of both classes sit together and elect their own chairman at divisional and district sessions. The qualifications deemed indispensable in candi dates for the magistracy are the possession of a certain amount of landed property, residence in the district, and a course of study completed at one of the Universities or special schools, or, failing that, at least three years' service in a Government office, and for the greater part of the time in the Ministry of Justice. The new magistrates will have authority to decide in civil as well as criminal cases. In the former, their competency extends to debts of 500 rubles, subject to appeal, or 30 roubles without appeal ; in the latter to offences punishable by a fine of 300 roubles, or imprisonment for three months, subject to appeal, or by a fine of 5 roubles, or imprisonment for three days, without appeal. The appeals are heard by the assembled justices at se, sions, and their decision is final. The superior courts, civil and criminal, are divided into " district tribunals," and 44 courts of justice." In the latter appeal cases are tried. The Senate becomes a final court of appeal, but only takes cognisance of cases in which there is alleged to have been a violation of legal forms. The judges, who are irremovable, are appointed by the Emperor on the recommendation of the Minister of Justice. Advocates must have taken a University degree, and. have made a special study of law. They will form a class which hitherto has had no existence in Russia. The profession of the law is naturally looked upon with contempt, when the chief functions of the lawyer consist in stealing a percentage of the bribes offered by the litigants to the judges, as law itself is despised when it is known that all the judges can be bought, and that no honourable man can accept the place of judge. The experiment of rendering a new class of judges completely inde pendent of the Administration was, it may be re alembered, first tried in immediate connexion with the emancipation of the serfs, and was found to answer admirably. The richest and best educated proprietors in the country came forward to accept places from which they derived no pecuniary pro fi oc t, and which they would never have dreamt of \ ciipyainccgo ahoatdahtlhoeyfobry their r g de s c o is r io e n n s d t e o re d o them selveso.yGo., vernment official f principles, ~ jOulcoiitlabeanmitojt, .interesting portions of the three books,,, Which set forth in great detail the e ns on which the new system and t, w w hi sy h stem of law proceedings is to be based, is that ,ere the precise condi isr!late.s to the formation and all praprietionstituted for of juries. Trial by j ury m errachthants, artists, criminal a ca n s d es ar o t n is ly ans are liable to servres, privilege of serving, in rotation or,on jurrichsavei, the privilege, as the Government evidently desires thathu' THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 13, 1862. it should be considered—is extended to peasants who are acting or have acted as elders of the com mune, syndics, churchwardens, deputies at the village assemblies, and, in short, who have occupied any post of confidence. In political cases juries are not allowed, nor are the proceedings to be public. Advocates are to be employed, and, in the interest of the accused, the marshals of nobility of the province and of the dis trict to which he belongs will be included among the judges. No prisoner of any kind is to be detained 24 hours in custody without being brought before a judge, nor can his examination be proceeded with until a distinct accusation has been made against him. None of the above laws are to be applied in places under a state of siege. There is no great hardship, however, in this. In the only provinces likely to be affected by the exception all the upper and middle classes are - Poles, whose language is excluded from the courts of justice, without that of the peasants being substituted for it. To Poles it matters com paratively but little what the laws of Russia may be ; for, good Jr bad, they cannot understand them. STRANGE SUICIDE IN 7HE THAMES. Yesterday evening Mr Bedford, the coroner, held an inquest at the Westminster Hospital, touching the death of a female unknown, who committed suicide by throwing herself off the steamboat-pier at the foot of Westminster-bridge on the morning of Friday last. The evidence as to identity merely showed that she was of the class termed unfortunate passing in the mime of Rose Montague, but it was not proved that she had any friends or relations. She was supposed to be about 19 or 20 years of age. Emma Harwood, a young female residing in Charles-street, Westminster-road, said that on Fri day morning last, about three o'clock, she saw de ceased and another female in the Haymarket. She followed them as far as Westminster-bridge, when she heard deceased say to her friend, " Let us both go together." Her friend answered " Yes," and they both went down the steps, and deceased threw herself off the pier into the Thames, her friend ap parently making no attempt to prevent her. Wit ness ran up the steps and called a policeman, and returned with him, and she then saw deceased float ing on the top of the water. She did not see de ceased again until she was taken out of the water, which was in about half an hour after. The friend of deceased was holding on to the pier, and it was with difficulty witness could get her away. She was crying, and she asked witness and the police man to save her friend. She said they were both out of a lodging, and deceased had had a quarrel with some young man. In answer to the Coroner, the police said de ceased's companion was in custody for attempting to poison herself, but they would endeavour to pro duce her if necessary. The Coroner said he should certainly like to have her in attendance, and he wished the police autho rities to endeavour to find out something about the unfortunate deceased if possible. The inquiry was then adjourned until Tuesday next. 7HE ALLEGED POISONING AT NOR7II SHIELDS. NOR I H SHIELDS, WEDNESDAY. The investigation into the circumstances under which Mrs. Gillespie came by her death was re sumed this morning, for the third time, at the Town Hall, before Mr. S. Reed, the coroner for the borough. Mr. H. Brignal, solicitor of North Shields, ap peared, as before, to watch the proceedings on behalf of the husband of the deceased; Mr. Kewney was present in the interest of Dr. Fenwick, who had been very considerably implicated by the evi dence previously given, and which has been already fully reported. After a lengthened inquiry, the jury returned the following special verdict : "That the deceased died from the effects of strych nine, administered to her from Dr. Fenwick's sur gery. That there is not sufficient evidence to show by which of the two dispensers it was sent, and that greater caution should be used by Dr. Fen wick in the dispensing of his medicines." EXTRAORDINAItY CASE OF ABORT lON. AI)VER USING PRACTMOINERS. Yesterday afternoon an adjourned inquiry was resumed at the Kent Arms, Mabledone-place, Bur ton-crescent, by Dr. Lankester, the Middlesex Coroner, respecting the death of Maria Ellworthy, aged 31, housekeeper to a gentleman, who was alleged to have lost her life through an attempt to procure abortion. _ _ The Coroner read over the evidence taken on the previous occasion, of which the material part was to the following effect : Mr. B. H. Humpage, surgeon, said that on Oct. 15 he was called to No. 6, Bedborough-street, and found that deceased had been delivered prematurely of a child which appeared to be a six months' child. It died the same night. Deceased was suffering 1-om wounds produced by blunt instruments, used to bring on premature labour. She died on the Ist inst., from inflammation of the bowels arising from those wounds. Mr. Galliers, 7, Gray's-inn-road, surgeon, said that death had been caused by wounds in the uteri from blunt instruments employed to bring on abor tion. The child died on Saturday. Mr. Galliers was now recalled, and said that he had made an additional examination of the body of the deceased. He found a very small portion of the placenta remaining in the uterus, which might have set up the inflammation, which was the immediate cause of death. By the Coroner—The wound from the instru ments employed to procure abortion were in them selves sufficient to have produced death, but he could not now state positively that it was the wounds that had done so. Mr. Humpage, recalled, also said that he could not now speak positively upon the point, but the injuries inflicted were undoubtedly enough to have produced the fatal result. Jane Collard, 13, Victoria-road, Islington, said that she was cousin to the deceased. Deceased was thirty-one years of age, and unmarried. She was housekeeper to Mr. Himing, at 13, Victoria-road. She had sent for witness to take her place at Mr. Riming's, as she said that she was going away for a fortnight, because she did not feel well. She le on ‘‘ ednesday (the Bth or the 15th October) that witness went to Mr. Himing's. Witness did not know where deceased went to, but saw her the day before she died at Bedborough-street. She was then too ill to speak. Mr. George Himing, 13, Victoria-road, deposed to the deceased having been in his service and obtain ing leave of absence, as described by the previous witness. He also deposed to her having sent to him for money, and to his visiting the house where she was staying and finding her ill. Dr. Harris, 33, Great Windmill• street, said that one evening, three weeks ago, deceased came to his surgery and asked him to attend her in her con finement, and said that she lived in Highgate, and had been recommended to him by a Mr. Scott, of 1, Strand. She said that Mr. Scott had examined her and found that she was very near her confine ment, She asked witness to recommend her a nurse, and he gave her the name of Mrs. Forrester, 34, Bedborough-street, Burton-crescent. Witness saw nothing more of her. Witness believed from hear ing the evidence, that deceased was suffering from injuries spoken of by the previous medical witnes when she called and told him that she had been examined. By the Jury—He arrived at the conclusion from the fact that persons are constantly advertising that female complaints are particularly attended to. He was much surprised when she told him that she had been sent to him by Mr. Scott, as he knew Mr. Scott's position. The Coroner had Mr. Scott called in, and informed him that the evidence was such as put him rather on his defence, and therefore wished him to be in the room. The inference was that the injuries were inflicted by Mr. Scott. Would he wish to give any explanation ? Mr. Scott said that he was sure the coroner would put no improper questions to him, and he would explain. Mr. Mayhew said he appeared for Mr. Scott, and he objected to his giving any evidence. Mr. Scott said that he was convinced he could not commit himself, the case was so clear. The Coroner said that he would not swear Mr. Scott. Mr. Scott, 7, Adam-street, Adelphi, then said he had written on medical subjects, and occasionally saw patients, but he had not a license to practise. About a month ago a female came to him and asked, "Did he attend the midwifery cases ?" He answered, "That depends." She asked, "Did he take in women to confine them ?" and he said not. She then pressed him to recommend some doctor to her, and he gave her the name of Dr. Harris, who had walked the St. Ge3rge's Hospital with him sixteen years ago. Dr. Harris had once attended his (Mr. Scott's) wife, and he was a hardworking little fellow. If the coroner asked him further it would pain him to answer. The Coroner said he did not wish to do so, Mr. Mayhew, however, insisted that as Mr. Scott tendered himself he should be sworn and cross examined. Mr. Scott was accordingly sworn, and, in reply to the jury, said that he advertised to give advice in midwifery, pregnancy, and other female irregularities. He did nothing to commit himself. He was never criminally prosecuted. He had been prosecuted for using a medical title by the Medical Protectio❑ Society, but the charge was dismissed. By the Coroner—lt was not his practice to exa mine women. By Mr. Mayhew—He neither examined nor used instruments with deceased. It - was false of anyone to say so. Dr. Harris recalled—Deceased most decidedly said that she had been examined by Mr. Scott. By examination he meant, and he was confident she meant, her vagina. Inspector Pierce deposed that last night he called at Bow-street station to make inquiries respecting Mr. Scott. He found that eight years ago he had been tried and convicted of a criminal assault on a woman, and administering to her a drug when she called on him to procure abortion. He was con victed under the name of Hamilton. After some other evidence had been given, The coroner then summed up, and said that un happily there was reason to know that abortion was frequently procured in the metropolis, and that instruments were used for that purpose. Persons were extensively engaged in that infamous traffic, which was rendered lucrative by the desire of young women to get rid of all proofs of their shame. It was clear that abortion had been attempted in the present case, and that the injuries produced by the instruments used were sufficient to cause death. , If the jury were of opinion that the use of the instru ments was the cause of death, or that there was sufficient evidence, which he doubted, as to who had used the instruments, it would be their duty to return at least a verdict of manslaughter. That instruments had been used there was not the slightest doubt. After a long deliberation, the jury returne d a verdict " That deceased died of inflammation arising from a portion of retained placenta and injuries from THE GREAT BANK OF ENGLAND FORGERIES. Some very extraordinary proceedings have come :o light in reference to the robbery of the Bank paper from the mills, and the subsequent attempts at forgery, and also the circumstances under which the detection of the prisoners took place, which, in a matter of such grave importance to the public, will doubtless be read with interest. There appears to be no doubt that for a very considerable period a " plant," as it is termed, was made upon the mills, by the professional bank-note forgers, with a view to get possession of some of the genuine note paper, and it may be stated that one of the principal difficulties that has stood in the way of those persons putting forged notes into circulation has been the paper, a spurious note being detected almost instantly by any one acquainted with the matter by the difference exhibited in the touch and substance of the paper, and it was thought that if this could once be overcome forgery might be car ried on to an almost unlimited extent. In reference to this subject it may be taken as a positive fact that one of the prisoners now in custody is known to have expressed his opinion after the genuine paper had been obtained possession of, that a forged note might be taken to the Bank of England and gold obtained for it over the counter. Every endea vour, therefore, was made by the gang to effect this object, and from inquiries that have been made there appears to be no doubt that for a long period, ex tending over several months, schemes of all sorts were resorted to with a view to tempt some of the workmen employed about the mills to betray their trust, and unhappily at length these proceedings were successful, and the long-wished for moment arrived when the parties found themselves in pos session of the genuine bank-note paper, which they believed would enable them to become the possessors of boundless wealth. It appears, however, that the gang were very cool and cautious in their proceed ings, and although they had succeeded in the object they had so long contemplated, nothing was done precipitately, but they set about deliberately to make all the necessary arrangements for a great coup. It may be stated that the Bank of England notes are all engraved upon a different description of paper, a certain description being employed for £5, another description for £lO, another for £5 O notes, and so on; and before anything was done the forgers resolved upon having a full supply of each kind of paper, so that the business might be done in a regular and systematic manner, and it is quite certain that the genuine bank-note paper was in their possession for a considerable time before any attempts were made to engrave forged notes upon it, and it is probably owing to this great caution on thier part that a much greater amount of mischief was not effected ; for, owing to the delay in the operations of the marauders, very few notes were printed on the genuine paper, and through the activity of the police and the energetic steps taken by the officials of the Bank of England, the whole affair was discovered before the extensive system of forgery contemplated could be carried out. It would not be prudent to state the circum stances which led to the discovery of the proceed ings that had taken place between the forgers and the persons employed at the paper-mills ; but, im mediately the discovery of the robbery took place it was palpable to the officers employed that some one engaged upon the premises must have abused his trust, but the difficulty was to obtain a clue in the right direction. The detectives, however, by the most persevering inquiries and a determination not to be baffled, at length obtained information which led to the apprehension of the boy Brown, and when he found that he had no chance of escape, and that the officers were in possession of informa tion upon all his proceedings, he expressed his readiness to make a clean breast of it, and from this time the officers had a comparatively easy task to perform, although from the wily character of the offenders they had to deal with, a good deal re mained to be done, and much caution was neces sary to be employed before full success could be obtained. The affair of the robbery having to a certain ex tent been settled, the next step was to endeavour to trace out the parties who were guilty of the more serious offence of forgery, several forged notes, prin cipally of £lO and £5, engraved upon a portion of the stolen Bank paper, having by this time come into the Bank of England, and the inquiries made by the detectives speedily led them to Birmingham, where the man Griffiths was taken into custody. This man appeals to be an extraordinary cha racter. It will be remembered that when he was taken he was in the act of printing forged Bank of England notes, and when he saw that the game was up he freely admitted his guilt, at the same time stating that he had been engaged in the same nefarious pursuit for a period of 17 years. It will be hardly credited that the ostensible occu pation carried on by this prisoner was that of a far mer, and he occupied a small farm a few miles from Birmingham, where all his forging operations were carried on ; and, although the detective officers of Birmingham, whe are probably as shrewd as any men of their class, entertained some suspicion as to the nature of his proceedings, it would seem that they did not consider there was sufficient to justify them in interfering with him until the present occasion. THE GLASGOW MURDER A memorial to the Lords of the Treasury has been prepared by some of the citizens of Glasgow, calling for the publication of the grounds of the decision to which the Home Secretary has advised her Majesty, viz., commuting Mrs. M‘Lachlan's sentence to that of penal servitude for life. The memorialists state :—" Had there been any reason with to suppose th a t t h e pr i soner was no t gu ilty o f th e crime of the it h Royal which prerogative she was charged, then ell b the e exer cise applied; of but the commuted sentence g penal servitude (for life excludes any other idea than that the Home Secretary was acting under the hypothesis of the prisoner's guilt, and that he had • not been convinced of the convict's innocence by the proceedings taken under the secret investigation. If so, then the question arises, why has the prisoner been relieved of the capital punishment ? The memorialists feel, therefore, that a searching inquiry is necessary into the whole facts. A public trial by judge and jury has been set aside, and a private investi gation by a secret tribunal has usurped its deci cision. A serious blot has been inflicted upon the due administration of public justice, and men of cha racter and independence will act with reluctance as jurymen for the future, if their honest verdicts are to be set aside by a secret tribunal. Finally, your memorialists beg most earnestly to call your lordship's attention to the fact that the remission of sentence in the case of the prisoner, without any explanation, has the tendency, in terms of her ' statement,' to point to a man as the criminal who is untried, presumed to be innocent, and there by t o inflict upon that individual and his posterity a wrong of the most cruel desoription." DESTITU7IOIV AND DEATH AT STEPNEY. Last evening Mr. H. Raffles Walthew, the de pnty-coroner, held an inquest at the Maid and Magpie Tavern, Wellington-place, Stepney, on view of the body of Elizabeth Loney, aged 56 years, who died from destitution at No. 4, Annie-street, near the Thames Police-court. It appeared by the evidence that the deceased was a charwoman, but for some time she had been unable to follow her occupation through ill health. She occupied one small room, for which she paid 2s. per week, but was in arrears of rent to her land lady to the amount of 11 ss. On Saturday last the deceased did not make her appearance as usual, when one of the lodgers finding the key in her door it was opened, and deceased was discovered lying upon the floor a corpse. She had a quarter an ounce of tea in her hand, and it is supposed, when she returned on the previous evening, that she must have fallen down from exhaustion, as she had complained to a neighbour of weakness, which she attributed to her distress. The Deputy-Coroner said he was much surprised to find the body of the poor woman still lying on the floor, fully dressed, as she had fallen. He would not have allowed a dog to lie in such a man ner : it was a disgrace to humanity. The parish authorities ought to have been made acquainted with the case, and the body should have been put into a coffin. She ought not to have been allowed to remain in that condition since Saturday last. Mr. Stevens, the summoning officer, said when he first heard of the case he found the deceased as described, and the parties belonging to the house were going to put an execution in the room while the corpse was on the floor, but he dared them to do it at their peril. Deputy-Coroner—Let the parish authorities at tend to the case at once, and get the body removed without delay. Mr. Stevens said he and the police had been using every effort to find the friends, and they only found them late on Tuesday night, but .they were too poor to bury the body. Mr. Horton, the divisional medical officer, said he was called by the police, and found that the de ceased bad been dead several hours. He believed the deceased had died from disease of the heart, accelerated by bad living ,nd the want of sufficient nourishment, The weather had no doubt acted upon her condition. The room where deceased lived was poverty-stricken, but clean. After further evidence, the Deputy-Corder re marked on the case, which he considered a very distressing one. The jury returned a verdict in accordance with the medical testimony. ANOTHER CRIN LINE FAIALITI. SHOCKING DEATH. On Tuesday evening, Mr. James Bird, the coroner for the Western Division of Middlesex, held an in quiry at the Golden Lion public-house, Fulham, re specting the death of a lady named Anne Maria Leaver, aged 39, who died on Monday night from the effects of severe burns, The evidence elicited was of a very melancholy character, and the case may be added to the long list of crinoline fatalities. The unfortunate deceased and her daughter, a young lady about 17 years of age, were staying at the re sidence of Mr. Charles Mathews, the comedian, Gore Lodge, Fulham, on a visit from America. On Mon day last the whole household were terribly alarmed by the piercing screams of the deceased, who was found on the stairs enveloped in flames. Immediate steps were taken to extinguish the flames, but not before the deceased was burnt in a moat shocking manner about the lower part of the body. Mr. Ree, th of Walhatn• green, pro m ptly a tt en d e d, bute u all surgeon, efforts were unavailing, as s h e di e d in a sr i n , few hours afterwards. It also appeared that the drapery about the fire-place of the room in which the deceased had been was in flames, and they extinguished without much damage be ing caused. No person was present when the unfortunate occurrence took place, and it was supposed that the deceased was standing in front of the fire, and in turning round to look at herself in the glass her dress, being expanded by crinoline, was pushed into the burning coals, and was soon in a bleze. The burning dress ignited the diaper of the mantel-piece, and upon the deceased finding that she was on fire she rushed out of the room and down the stairs screaming. The bannisters of the stairs were scorched by the fire. The jury, after hearing the evidence of the deceased's daughter and Mr. Ree, returned a verdict of " Accidental death." Mr. and Mrs. Mathews were from home at the time, but on the melancholy event taking place, they were I immediately telegraphed for. FRANTIC FREAKS OF A BULLOCK. At en early hour yesterday morning a young bullock broke from a herd that was being driven along the Holloway-road. It dashed at full speed towards the metropolis, creating the greatest terror and alarm amongst the inhabitants and persons go ing to work. The animal was pursued by a few drovers and butchers with an intent to turn him back to the drove, but the pursuers being joined by a number of boys and others, he was driven into a frantic state by their yells and shouts, the barking of dogs, &c. The infuriate animal rushed with tail erect, and horns ploughing the ground, down a turning through which there was no outlet, and turning round he made a furious dash through the crowd, who were guarding the entrance, and ima gined they had him secure ; but in this they were deceived, as with a frantic bound he escaped, over turning several persons, two of whom—John Best, a butcher, and a lad named Wilson—were much in jured by the beast trampling on them. Onward th'i animal sped a t an i ncrease d ra t e o f speed, and coming into cont ac t w i t h t h e ta il gra ting of a wag gon loaded w i t h hay, a severe gash was inflicted on his sho u ld er . This occurrence re ndered him more furiou s , an d after b ellow i ng for a moment or two he s e t o ff aga i n, an d i n his mad career caught a woman on his horns; fortunately her clothes, which were torn to pieces, saved her life. His mad race was soon after this terrninnted, for in en deavouring to pass between two wagg ons he g o t jammed, and b e i ng released f e ll panting and worn out to the grou n d, in which positio n he was secured by his pursuers. r ~ `,., violence inflicted with instruments to procure abor tion ; and the jurors find that who the person was who inflicted the said injuries to procure abortion, there was not sufficient evidence to show." GOVERNMENT PROSECT7ION OF DROVERS'. Yesterday, at the Clerkenwell Police Court, Charles Howard, Frederick James Lewis, Robert Holwell, Frede rick Spencer, Thomas Hall, Alfred Crittenden, John Free man, John Hall, Charles Maxaw, Alexander Reynolds, James Priam, Edmund Pinchber, and Alfred Slaughter, drovers in the new Metropolitan Cattle Market, were sum moned before Mr. Barker for unlawfully acting contrary to the rules and regulations made according to la iv, for the driving of cattle within the metropolis—to wit by driving cattle and sheep between the hours of 12 at noon and 7 in , the afternoon. _ _ Mr. T. Beard, solicitor, of Basinghall- street, appeared for some of the defendants, and the court was crowded by per sons anxious to hear the proceedings, and who are interested in the sale of live and dead stock in the metropolis. Mr. Beard, before the cases were gone into, asked his worship to adjourn the hearing of them for a few days, as he was about to draw up and lay before Sir Richard Mayne a memorial asking for an extension of the hours during which the cattle could be driven through the streets. lie was aware that when the persecution—he would not call it fair prosecution —against these men commenced, u deputa tion waited upon the commissioner, and a slight concession was made to the drovers and their employers, but it was not sufficient. Why, only on Monday last there were over 6,000 head of beasts in the market, and as it was dark the sales did not commence until late, how was it possible to get them all out before 12 o'clock in the day? He (Mr. Beard) might be told that those that could not be removed, could be put into the lairs ; but that increased the expenses and was one of the causes why meat was so dear at the present time. Mr. Barker said he did not see how he could interfere to prevent the cases going on without he had the sanction of the Commissioner of Police. Mr. Beard said that the gran era, cattle salesmen, and slaughterers that he represented felt that the drovers were very hardly dealt with at this and some other courts. He might state that the magistrates were divided in opinion as whether these men should be convicted or not. The worthy magistrates at the Thames Police-court had refused to issue any more summonses against these poor men, and sail that they worked hard enough for their little money without being continually mulct of it in fines by them. The case of the licensed drovers in this matter was really very hard. They had to earn their livelihood in about two or three days of the week. In many instances their pay was very scanty. Many of them were incessantly employed on the Sundays, and through the whole of the night, as well as having to attend the market at Copenhagen-fields till the close of the market on Monday at 2 o'clock. Now, cattle may be driven through the streets and out of the market until 12 o'clock in the day, but after that time, when he (Mr. Beard) contended that the streets were really clearer of traffic, they may not be driven until after 7 in the evening. Very often at 12 o'clock there remained at least 2,000 head of cattle, lambs, sheep, &c., in the market, which, in the course of things, would be quietly drawing away in tens or twenties, really to the discomfort of no one that he (Mr. Beard) could see, in comparison to the confusion caused by the packing this large number of cattle in the lairs until the specified time when all the drovers got to work. The consequence was that the greatest confusion prevailed, the poor animals of the different droves got mixed together,the men,even by the use of lamps,could not see the marks upon them,and a source of the greatest cruelty was thus practised upon both the men and the cattle. But what made the matter worse in his (Mr.Beard's)eyes was that the thorough fares became crowded with cattle, and the scene of a con tinued noise and tumult which could otherwise have been easily avoided. He (Mr. Beard) might add, that by this arbitrary rule the poor drovers, who were for the moat part already tired, were compelled to suspend thefr labours for seven hours, when they might have finished their work and gone home. As it was, they cep.ld not leave the market until it closed at 2 o'clock, and then, on these cold and cheerless days, they could not loiter about the lairs,and they had only one place to go to, viz., the public-house. He(Mr. Beard) contended thatthe new rule only tended to debase the drover instead of raising him. He was ready to admit the necessity of some stringent rule to prohibit the driving the cattle in certain places during the day, taking, for instance, Cheapside, the free bridges, and other crowded thorough. fares, but the masters themselves would not allow that, as the cattle would get bruised by the constant knocking against the wheels, and the collision with the carts and drays. As many of these poor men had widowed mothers and helpless sisters depending on them for support, he (Mr. Baird) hoped the magistrate would not be hard on them and fine them for offences like those they were now sum moned for, merely to suit the caprice of those in power, to the ruin of the drovers and also the inconvenience of a large and respectable body of the trade. Inspector Judge, N division, said he would lay the mat ter again before the commissioner. Mr. Barker said he had begun with fining 55., but as that did not do he had increased it to 30s. In each case in which the offence was preyed he inflicted a fine of 30s. and costs, and said if they were again brought before him he ehould increase the fine. In default of payment the defendants would have to go to prison for 14 days. THE GAME LAW DISTURBANCE AT BLACKB URN. Yesterday nine of the rioters, of 18 in custody, named Roger Livesey, John Richmond, John Livesey, Nicholas Hindle, John Hindle, James Waddington, James Ashton, Samuel Rigby, and John Stones, were charged with insti gating the riot, by assailing the police and the gamekeepers on their way from the Town-hall to Pleasington, on Thurs day last. They were placed in the dock at the Town-hall before the Mayor, and Messrs. Bztynes, Land, W. B. Coddington, and James Johnston. The case was opened at half• past 9 o'clock by Mr. Clough calling the following witnesses for the prosecution : Police-constable Robinson, of the county constabulary, ' stated that he assisted several other county policemen to escort four of Col. Bowdon's gamekeepers from the Town hall on their way home. Before they had gone far a crowd of 2,000 persons assembled around them, and hooted and hissed and threw stones at the gamekeepers. Before they had got to Messrs. Dugdale's shop they ware assailed with a perfect storm of stones and mud, and they found it neces sary to go into Mr. Dugdale's shop for safety. Presently a posse of borough police came and a cab, into which the gamekeepers at once got. The driver started to go up Pres ton New-road, but a crowd of persons going before it and stoning it, the driver turned and drove quietly to the Town hall, where the keepers got out and ran for safety into the building. Ashton threw a stone at him, and one of his fellow-officers proceeded to run after him, but was told to never mind, as he was known. Witness and the other po lice followed the cab to the Town-hall, the crowd following, and remaining opposite the hall until dusk, when they be gan to throw stones at and break the windows of the Town hall. He saw John Livesey square his fists at him, and afterwards strike him on the breast. He also hooted and incited the crowd to violence. William Sleigh, sergeant of county constabulary, said he was at the Town -hall on Thursday last, when the men were tried for poaching, and assisted to escort the game keepers from the Town-hall. This was a little after 3 o'clock in the afternoon. After corroborating the evidence of the previous witness as to the conduct of the crowd, he said he received a serious blow with a stone on the back of the head, the wound bleeding profusely. They were com pelled to take refuge in Messrs.Dugdale's, keepers also went upstairs, in consequence of their lives being endangered. They remained there until the cab and some borough con stables came up, when the gamekeepers got into the cab, and were conveyed away, amid the yelling and shouting of the crowd, to the town-hall. Witness wont to get his wounds dressed, and on returning to the Town-hall ho found that many windows had been broken. Police-officer R. Eastwood saw Waddington among the crowd in Preston New-road. Heard him shout and say "Go into 'em ; don't let 'cm go away quietly." Saw John Hindle throw a stone at the cab and then run away. Stones fell like hailstones thick and fast. The stone that hit the cab was about the size of a man's fist. Nicholas Taylor, aged 13, said he knew Mr. Dugdale's shop, Preston New-road, and was near it last Thursday afternoon, and saw Nicholas Hindle throw a stone at a po liceman. The gamekeepers were with the policemen, going up Preston New-road. He was in the crowd, and followed it, but did not throw a stone. After being charged as one of the rioters on Saturday, and taken to the police-court, they asked him if he knew any of the rioters, and took him into the office. He was shown a boy, but could not identify him. On Monday he was shown five of the persons in cus tody, and identified Nicholas Hindle, Howarth, and Stones. He had not been in custody. Sergeant Eastbourne, of the Blackburn police force, said he partly heard the poachers examined. He accompanied the chief constable to Mr. Dugdale'e in the afternoons bout a quarter•past three. There was a large arowd of h persons near to Mr. Dugdale's, hooting and shouting. W cab came up to Mr. Dugdale's house the gamekeepers got into it, and were driven off amid a s hower of stones. It was obliged to return and drive to the Town-hall. The cab windows were broken , rd w , and Rigby the driverere amonghit withthew e stones. rod, W ad din gton, Richmond, a but witness never saw them do anything. The crowd next assembled round the Town-hall. He remained about the hall till dusk, and the mob increased in number, and hooted and shouted much. About dusk a volley of stones was thrown at the police-office door, and the lamps over the door were broken. Soon afterwards tho windows around the Town-hall were broken. About half-past six the police turned out, and ho was present when the Riot Act was read. The police consisted of 21 men, c hief constable. John Law, county policeman, c Livesey, who struck R o bi n Robinson leaders ; Richmond was there Ashton. nor Roger L* the inspector, and orroborated the evidence o f constables Sleigh and Robinson . l He identified John and was one of the ring ere, but did not see him nor "'MY do anythin g. He thought his life was in Jeopardy. He only knew Roger Livesey before, but saw Richmond in court on Tuesday week. He identified John Livesey and Ashton in the police-court, and appre hended Richmond', whose door was smashed in doing it.. It was in consequence of his information that the persons he had named were apprehended. Thomas Houllen, inspector of the borough police force, was present last Thursday evening when the' Riot Act was read by the mayor, about h alf- p ast 7 o'clock. _He had been about the Town-hall before that time, and did not know that several maeetrates had declined to read it. John Dugdale, et;sraver, of No. 1, Strawberry-bank, - said he remembered being in his shop last Thursday after noon, and had his attention called to the street by loud shouting and yelling. W hen he got to the door he saw - a cro wd coming up from the town tovia:ds his shop, a nd the: whole road was blocked up with the crOwd. The game keepers and two policemen came into his atop, and a stone I thrown at the window broke a pane of glass and passed close by his head. He took the keepers for s afety upstairs. One of the policemen was sick, and his head wounded. They remained in the house for nearly half an holm The conduct of the crowd terrified them. He went to the police-office to get more police officers and a cab to co:lvey the keepers away. He saw the gamekeepers get into the cab, and when the driver had proceeded a few yards stoner were sent at the cab, and the driver turned back and drove the keepers towards the Town-hall. The crowd dispersed, going chiefly towards the market place. Five out of six panes of glass in the front window were broken. He was not assailed. Thomas Walmesley, cab - driver , said he took up four keepers from Mr. Dugdale's last Thursday, but in drivin colg up Preston New - road saw dan g er before him, a crowd - l ec ting stones, and turned back , drivin g the koepers to the Town-hall. He was hit with on e stone and Um/ cab with two. No windows were broken in his cab. Cross-examined by Rigby — He sto pp ed in the nzarket place to take up a telegraph messenger. Rigby—l saw it, and that showed that I was not up' at Dugdale's. James Clayton, borough-policeman, was present in Pres ton New-road when the keepers were being conveyed away in a cab. He saw Ashton throw a stone at the cab. He had known Ashton previously. Six or seven stones were thrown at once at the cab. Mr. Clough said that completed the evidence in that sec tion of the case, and the Court adjourved for half an hour, when our parcel was despatched.
