erect [mid MONEY MARKEI 4 , 124'D CITY NEWS. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The operations in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Market during the last few days have been rather restricted. Sugar, however, has maintained its value, while good and finer descrip tions of coffee were a shade dearer. For tea steady prices have been obtained, while fruit, rice, and spices, have barely maintained former values. Saltpetre and tallow have been dull, but the latter article has slightly advanced owing to a speculative demand for forward delivery. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 475., and last three months delivery 48s. to 48s. 6d. per cwt. There was a fair amount of business transacted in the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, and prices were firm. The sales were 8,000 bales. Tte Delta which leaves to-morrow with the BOM • bay mails, will take out £289,535, principally in silver. It has been notified by the Spanish Financia Commission that the auction of the Foreign Redeem able Debt will take place at Madrid on the 27th inst., for which purpose the Government have assigned 5,171 072 reals. The inquiries for money continue moderate, and the quotations are scarcely so firm as they were a few days ago. A further supply of gold, amounting to £35,000 was withdrawn from the Bank of England yesterday for exportation. Reports have been current this morning to the affect that the contemplated advance of £2,000,000 to £4,000,000 to the French Government on the deposit of Rentes will not be concluded. Various reasons are assigned for the course adopted, but it seems to be generally supposed that the principal cause is the annoyance felt by the French Govern ment in consequence of the publicity given to the operation by the English press, and the discussion on the subject which took place on Saturday by the Corps Legislatif. In some quarters, however, the repudiation is attributed to the fact that the necessary deposit had not been secured. The whole affair, however, is enveloped in mystery, and it is quite probable that the public will never be made acquainted with the full particulars. In consequence of the statement that the arrange ments for the French loan will not be completed, some speculative purchases have been effected in the Market for Public Securities, which have exer cised a beneficial influence upon quotations, Con '3°ls, which had been 921 1. for money, and 928 93 for the account, having risen to 921 93 and 93 k t especiively. The New Threes are flat at 921 931; the Reduced steady at 93 a ; Exchequer Bills, March, have receded to Bs. and 12s. prem.; ditto, June, to 10s. and 11s. prem. ; Bank Stock remains at 240 and 242 ; but India 5 per Cent. has advanced to 1064 3 7, In the F ore i gn M ar k e t the transactions have not , be enso active, and prices, in some instances, show ices firmness. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 841 851- ; ditto, 1858, 751; Mexican have receded to 34k; Russia n 5 per Cents. are 981 ; Spanish are 532 541; ditto Deferred, 431 ; ditto Passive, 19: 8 ; ditto Certificates, 71 ; Italian are flat, at 67.1 4; but Equador have improved to 18!-, I. The Moorish Loa n is 61 prem. The operations in the Railway Share Market _tod ay h ave b een of a rather restr i cte d c h aracter . Prices, however, have shown a further slight improvement. Midland, North Eastern (York), amiS outh Eastern have advanced 55., Great Western 15 s, and Caledonian £1 ; Eastern Coun ties, G reat Northern, Lancashire and Yorbshire, a nd West Midland remained at about previous prices. In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there has been little change of importance. South Aus trian and Lombardo-Venetian are► a shade flatter, Sambre and Meuse have declined 55., Bombay and Baroda 55., and Great Western of Canada and East Indian realise previous rates, Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares continue inactive. London and Westminster have, however, improved 55., Union of London as., and London General Omnibus Co. ss. BRITISH FUNDS—ONE O'CLOCK. Bank Stock 3 per Cent. Reduced Annuities 93 I 3 per Cent.

THE HARTLEY COLLIERY AcciDENT.—Yester day, at the Mansion-house, the subscriptions in aid of the fund for the relief of the widows and orphans of those who lost their lives at the Hartley Colliery, still continued to flow in, and at the close of the day upwards of £BOO was received, making a total of nearly L 15,000. Among some subscriptions sent through Messrs. Conte; and Co. was £llO, collected among the English at Nice by the Rev. Lord Thomas llaye and friends. THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY PLANT AT Doxceszen.—The mildness of the season has had a very depressing effect on the Great Northern Railway works at Doncaster, and during the winter large numbers of men have been discharged ; many are also under notice. Some idea may be formed of the number of discharges when it is stated that the volunteer corps in connexion with the works has been almost broken up. Some who have been in the company's service for years have left through this de pression, the like of which has not been seen in Doncaster since the railway passed through the town. THE ATTEMPTED MURDER AT ROCHDALE.— Joseph Issott, who has for some days been in custody, charged with shooting his wife with intent to murder her, Was on Saturday committed for trial by the Rochdale ma gistrates. The depositions of Mrs. Issott stated that the Prisoner had frequently shown that ho was jealous of her, tha t he had ac cused her of improper intimacy with a lodger, and threatened to take her life. She denied that she had been guilty of improper conduct. A TEST FOR ARSENIC.—Dr. Letheby recommends the following method of detecting the presence of arsenic in Wreaths and dresses :—" Put a drop of strong liquid am- Inf) riia (liqu or ammon i te th e d rugg i s t ca lls it) upon the green l eaf, or d ress, or paper, and if it turns blue, coppe r is p re- Rent anq coppe r i s rare ly, if ever , pre s ent in these tissues and fabeics without arsenic being also present—the green " T aPn'and being arsenite of copper. I have tested papers an d dresses in this manner more than a hundred times, a nd, have never failed to discover arsenic when the ammonia C hanges the green into blue. It is, therefore, indirectly a tee y reliable test ; and if every i' , dy would carry with her, Nvt ten she is shopping, a small phial of liquil ammonia, in stead of the usual scent bottle, the mere touch of the wet s topper on the suspicious green would betray the arsenical Peisen and settle the. business immediately.", LINES LEASED AT FIXED RENTALS.

Y EVENING, FEBRUARY 11, 1862. L ATV IA TELLIG.ENCE.—(This Day.) COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.) COMMERCIAL TRAVELLING-IN RE ROWSELL. This bankrupt was described as of Richmond-road, Dal ston, commercial traveller, and now came up on an applica tion for discharge from custody. Mr. Drew, Basingball-street, supported. The failure is attributed to the insufficiency of salary, which had been sud denly reduced from £3OO to £lOO per year, on which he had to maintain a wife and seven children. His Honour granted an immediate discharge. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) IN RE TURNER. This bankrupt was a licensed victualler and builder at Penge, Surrey, and this was a meeting for last examination and discharge. Mr. Brough appeared for the bankrupt, Mr. Dowse and Mr. Redpath for creditors, and Mr. Sorrell, Mark-lane, for the assignees. The opposing creditors asked for an adjournment sine die, without protection, as the bankrupt had not filed any accounts. Mr. Sorrell said he could see no good from such a pro ceeding. The assignees wanted to get accounts from the bankrupt, and it was not the way to get them by depriving him of protection from arrest, as men could not make out accounts in prison so well as when they had liberty and free access to their books and papers. He (Mr. Sorrell) there fore thought it desirable that a day should be named, with protection. Mr. Brough said the cause of delay was the illness of the bankrupt—and asked an adjournment, with protection, till the 27th March. Mr. Sorrell suggested that as there were many creditors desirous of proving the proofs should be sent to him for examination before the next meeting. The list was very long (nearly 80 causes) chiefly first meetings disposed of by the Registrars. POLICE I NTELLIGENCE.—(.7I4 Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CHARGE OP STEALING A CORONER'S WATCH AND CHAlN.—Sarah Evans, a prostitute, was charged with stealing a watch and chain from Mr. James Teague, coroner and magistrat,e, of Ilighe House, Blakeney, Gloucester shire. On the prisoner being placed at the bar, Mr. Tyrwhiti asked where the prosecutor was ? Godwin, 206 C, said the gentleman was in liquor that morning, and that might perhaps account for his not being present. The gentleman was a coroner, and he thought he would attend. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked what the charge was ? The constable said for stealing a watch and chain. It appears that Mr. Teague went into a public-house in Holborn and had some drink with the prisoner, and left with her in a cab, and on arriving at the Black Horse, in Coventry-street, missed his watch. The prisoner was searched, but the watch and chain were not found, and the cab had driven away, and Mr. Teague gave the prisoner in charge. After waiting some time, prisoner was discharged, no prosecutor appearing. THE MURDER IN MARYLEBONE. The adjourned coroner's inquiry relative to the circum stances attending the death of Mr. John Wincott, lately carrying on the business of a butcher in South-street, Manchester-square, was resumed this morning by Mr. Humphreys, at the Bedford Arms, South-street, Man chester-square. It will be recollected that the four men, Quail, Walsh, Cox, and Poulton, on Monday week created a disturbance in front of the shop of the deceased, and that in his en deavour to prevent Quail assaulting Byles, ho (Quail) seized one of the knives lying on the shop board and plunged it into Mr. Wincott's abdomen with such vio lence that death ensued in a very short time afterwards. After the evidence, which was the same as tn.-:t given at the Marylebone Police-court, had been completed, The jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against all the four prisoners. .ROYAL NATION4L LIFE-BOAT IN- STITUTION. A meeting of this institution was held on Thursday at its house, John-street, Adelpki, Thomas Chapman, Esq., F.R.S., V.P., in the chair. There were also present : Lai d Henry Cholmondeley, George Lyall, Esq., M.P., Sir Edward Perrott, Bart., Capt. Washington, R.N., F.R.S., Hydrographer of the Admiralty, Admiral Gordon, Alexander Boetefeur, Capt. W.H.,Hall, R.N., C. 8., Colone Palmer, Admiral Bullock, and Capt. Ward, R.N., Inspec tor of Lifeboa's to the Institution. The secretary having read the minutes of the previous meeting, a letter was read from Sir George Grey, 8art.,..M.P., Principal Secretary of State for the Homo Department, to the Duke of Nor thumberland, President of the institution, stating that he would take an early opportunity to lay before her Majesty the loyal and dutiful address of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution, on the occasion of tke death of his Royal Highness the Prince Consort. A re ward of £l2 was voted to the crew of the institution's life boat stationed at Eastbourne, for putting off and rescuing nine men from the barque Druid, of Sunderland, which was wrecked off Eastbourne on the night of the 12th ult,, during a heavy gale of wind. The Lytham lifeboat, also belonging to the institution, had succeeded in bring ing safely to port the schooner Chance, of Preston, which during a gale of wind and foggy weather had stranded on the Horse sandbank on the 17th ult. A reward of LS was voted to the crew of the society's lifeboat at Dundalk, for assisting to bring the schooner Rook, of Liverpool, to a port of safety on the night of the 16th ult. She was found thumping on the sandbanks on Dundalk Bar. A reward of £4 103 was also given to the crew of the Tyrella, Dundrum Bay lifeboat, belonging to the society, for rescuing the master of the schooner Bellona, of Liverpool, which, during a heavy gale of wind, was wrecked in Dundrum Bay on the night of the 17th ult. A reward of £7 10s. was also voted to the crew of the Southwold lifeboat of the institution, for putting off and rescuing the crew of five men from a small boat belonging to the schooner Princess Alice, of Ipswich, which during strong winds and heavy seas had sunk on Sizewell Bank on the night of the 27th ult. A reward of £l2 was likewise voted to the crew of the Cardigan life• boat belonging to the institution for putting off and rescuing ono man from the brig Pioneer, of Carnarvon, which during a terrific gale of wind was found on the 23d ult. in a dismantled state in Cardigan Bay, Seven of the crew had previously taken to their own boat, and had unfortunately perished. Rewards amounting to £5l were likewise voted to the crews of lifeboats belonging to the institution for putting off with the view of render ing assistance to vessels in distress, which did not, however, require their services. Several other rewards were also voted for laudable services in saving life from variouslwreck N. A letter was read from the Lords Commissioners of the Ad miralty, granting permission to officers and men of the navy to wear the medals presented them by the institution for their intrepidity in saving life from shipwreck. During the past month the institution had established a lifeboat station at Kingsgate, near Margate. Another was about being inaugurated at Plymouth, the lifeboat of this station beinc , the munificent gift to the institution of Miss Burdett Cots. A communication was read from Admiral Sir G. Sartorius, stating that the Portuguese Government had decided on placing five additional lifeboats, on the plan of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution, on the coasts of that country, and requesting the co-operation of the insti tution in building the same. A letter was likewise read from the Royal Thames Yacht Club stating that the com • mittee had decided on voting an additional donation of £lO in aid of the funds of the institution. During the past two years upwards of 1,000 lives had been saved by lifeboats alone from various shipwrecks on the coasts of the United Kingdom. Sums amounting to £530 having been die • penned to various lifeboat establishments, the proceedings tominated. TRIS DAY'S MARKETS. HAY MARKETS.

Yesterday, about 1 o'clock, a lamentable accident, causing injuries more or less severe to nearly 30 people, occurred in the Waterloo-road. For some days past it appears that a sherifils officer has been posted in ten of the little houses and shops on the left side of the short street called Wellington terrace, running from the south side of Waterloo bridge to Stamford-street. The occupiers are tenants of a kind of middle-man, named Jeffs, a builder in the Corn wall-road ; one Jones, living in the vicinity, being the superior landlord. They have, it is said, in every instance paid their rents, due up to last quarter day, to Jeffs, and hold his receipts ; but, in spite of that, on Friday or Saturday last a distress for rent, alleged to be due from him, was put into every house at the instance of Jones, to the great inconvenience and annoyance of all of them. The houses there follow the incline of the roadwaT4 lead ing up from Stamford-street to the bridge, and in front of them there is a space, about 611. wide, and in places some 30 or 40ft. deep, covered over with flagstones mostly, with here and there an iron grat ing to ventilate and light the abyss below. It appears that yesterday morning " the man in possession" of the house and shop there of a widow named Clayton, a blind-maker, presuming on her forbear ance, left the place to go to a neighbouring public house for some refreshment. Her nephew, a young man, occupying apartments with his wife in the upper part of the house, taking advantage of the absence of their unwelcome guest, locked the door upon him, and on the man's return amused himself by laughing and jeering at him from one of the windows. The neighbours around and people pass ing treated this as a practical joke, and the fun continued all the forenoon. At length the dis comfited bailiff, procuring advice and assistance, attempted to break in the door, using for that purpose and with much violence a piece of short, stout planking. With this he stove in two of the panels and effected an en trance. The nephew of the widow Clayton, rather than allow his and her furniture to be retaken for rent which they conceived they did not owe, began pitching chairs and tables out of the windows into the street. Of course, a scene like that in a great public thoroughfare attracted the notice of every one passing, and a crowd col- lected in front of the house. Most of them unhap pily —men, women, and children—stood upon an iron grating, about sir or eight feet square, near the adjoining shop. In an instant this grating gave way, and some 25 or 30 of the unfortunate people fell pell-mell into the area beneath, a depth of about 35 or 40ft., shrieking terribly. Several others were caught by bystanders as they were falling with the rest, and so rescued. The greatest consternation prevailed above and below. The people in the street rushed down to the Belvidere-road, which is on a level with the bottom of the area, to render what assistance they could in the emergency. A yawning gulph appeared in the street above. By degrees the people who had fallen were got out through an adjoining house an the lower level. They were in many cases shockingly injured. Some had both their legs broken ; others their skulls fractured;, all were more or less wounded. It was distressing, in particular, to see the bruises and broken bones which boys of 12 and 14 had received, and the grief to which their parents gave way. The sufferers were conveyed as speedily as possible in cabs to the nearest hospitals; the greater part of them being taken to that of St. Thomas's, and the rest to Guy's and Charing cross, except a few. who lived near and were removed to their own homes. One was a policeman who had been engaged in keeping order; another a shoeblack boy, who had his skull fractured. Subjoined is a list of them, with the nature cf the injuries they have sustained . :—Francis Raymond, aged 41, 4, South Lambeth-road, injuries in the back and left leg ; Thomas Baker, 18, 6, Cornwall place, Cornwall-road, right thigh fractured and injuries to the face; Edwin James Robbins, 27, living in the Waterloo-road, injuries in the abdo men ; George Clement Ridley, 14, 188, Waterloo road, compound fracture of the right leg and scalp wound; Thomas Grange, 15, 2, Commercial-road, scalp wound and injuries to the left leg; Edwin Woods, 14, 20, John-street, Waterloo-road, fracture of the pelvis and contusions ; Frederick Harriman, 28, 2, Roupell-place, fracture of both legs; Wm. Hember, 11, 42, Princes-street, Stamford-street, injuries in the right knee; John Wheelhouse, 32, Hammond-place, Cornwall-road, both thighs frac tured and foot injured; Robert Larkin, 43, 15, Felix-street, Blackiriars-road, injuries to thigh and chest; Francis Cunningham (a shoeblack), 7,Woot ton-street,Cornwall-road, fractured skull; William Venus, 30, police constable 142 L division, 52, Bird street, West-square, injuries in the spine ; John Head, 23, 47, Wentworth-road, Bow-road, scalp wound and injuries to both thighs; Daniel Mur phy, 35, 10, Waterloo-road, injuries to back and chest; Sarah Harding, 41, 27, Old Nichol-street, Shoreditch, injuries to right knee and abdomen; Mary Goldsmith, 18, 11, York-road, injuries to right shoulder and face; Fanny Robinson, 28, 1, Cox's-buildings, Belvidere-road, injuries to back and right leg ; Rose Metlock, 14, 191, Wellington terrace, Waterloo-road, injuries to the left knee and chest ; Elizabeth Goldsmith, 14, 10, Princes-court, York-road, injuries to both knees and thighs. (All the above, are in St. Thomas's Hospital, and the next two in Guy's.) Joseph Reader, 16, 181, Wa terloo-road, bruises and internal injuries; and Thomas James, 16, 56, York-road, fractured thigh. The next two are in Charing-cross Hospital-John Mitchell, 22, 4, Strand-lane, Strand, scalp wound; and Alfred Absolam, 24, 1, Exeter 'Change, Wel lington-street, internal injuries, not severe. The fol lowing were taken to their homes :-Thos. Dulton, 12, 31, Southampton-terrace, internal injuries, and Henry Beard, porter,York Hotel, scalp wound. The injuries in some cases are so serious that death is apprehended ; but up to a late hour last evening none of the sufferers had died. There are pecu liarly painful circumstances connected with the case of George Clement Ridley, a fine boy of 14. Not long ago his father and several of his little brothers and sisters died of a fever, and since then his poor mother has been struggling to maintain the rest of the family and herself. She was well-nigh distrac ted yesterday as she accompanied her unfortunate boy to the hospital. It appears that after the iron grating had given way it hung by the edge for a moment or two and then fell with a fearful crash, carrying some of the flagstones with it, upon the people who had just been precipitated into the area below, and also upon two children who were playing there.

LATEST PARTICULARS. The fear that some of the unfortunate sufferers conveyed to the hospitals would not long survive the extensive injuries they had received has, pro videntially, up to the present time, proved ground less. Although all have suffered very much, our reporter, on making inquiries at St. Thomas's Hos pital, where most of the injured persons were con veyed, was informed that all were progressing satisfactorily. The boy Cunningham, who has sustained a fractured skull, is as well as can be expected ; but the unfortunate man Robbins, who has sustained very severe internal injuries, gives most grounds for alarm. The house surgeon, how ever, up to the present time, does not apprehend any fatal termination to any of the patients under his care. The two injured persons, Joseph Reader and Thomas James, at Guy's Hospital, are also going on well. Those in Charing-cross Hospital are reported as progressing favourably, .. . _ ._ Crowds of persons have collected throughout the day at the scene of the accident, but the police prc vent all from approaching within the reach of danger. THE PRIVATE DIARY OF RICHARD, DUKE OF BUCKINGHAM AND CIIANDOS, K.G.—The portion of these entertaining volumes which relates to politics serves to throw additional light on the struggles of Canning, Wel lington, and Peel for office, and the opinions of the King on the principal questions which then agitated the public mind. The sketches which the Duke gives of the society at the time are remarkable not less for their vividness than their fidelity. The entries in the Diary respecting the Bonaparte Family are replete with interest at the present day,—Observer. MR. 31ILNER GIBSON A 2 ASHTON. ASHTON-UNDER-LYNE, MONDAY NIGHT. This evening the President of the Board of Trade delivered his annual address to his constituents in the town hall. Several thousand persons were pre sent. Mr. Ken worthy, the mayor, presided. Mr. GIBSON was received with great enthusiasm. A considerable portion of the right hon. gentleman's speech, which lasted nearly an hour, was devoted ) to illustrations of the beneficial effect of the com mercial policy with which he and others had been associated for the last 20 years. Great as had been the pressure on trade during the past year, as shown by the decrease of exports, it did not appear to have been so severe as was the pressure from the autumn of 1857 to the autumn of 1858. The total value of our exports from the United Kingdom in 1861 was £125,115,000, against £135,891,000 in 1860; the decrease in the 12 months from Nov. 1857, to Oct, 1858, was about £15,000,000. In the yea r j ust ended the percentage decrease of our exports had been heavier upon linens and iron than upon cotton, while in coal, machinery, end pig iron the exports showed an increase. Our exports to the United States had decreased by £12,500,000, or 42 per cent. Our exports to France, exclusive of corn, had been £7,944,724 in 1861, against £5,244,703 in 1860 But if the increased exports to France for the whole year had been in the same ratio as it was from Sept. to Dec., 1861, since the new treaty had been in operation, the year's total would have been over 10 millions. (Cheers.) Comparing the last four months in 1861 with the same period of 1860, the exports to France had increased by 81 per cent The imports from France in 1861 had been nearly 151 millions sterling, against £12,783,000 in 1860. The exports to Italy during 1861 had been £5,780,980 against £4,514,287 in 1860, the chief increase being to Naples and Sicily. (Applause.) After expressing his satisfaction at the repeal of the paper duty, Mr, Gibson referred to the civil war in America. He looked upon the severance of the United States as a calamity for the world; hut be spoke strongly in behalf of a strict neutrality as the duty of England. (Cheers.) He thought our Go. vernment had done its duty in the Trent dispute— (applause)—•and he was very sorry to hear Lord Derby express his regret that the new rule was being adjusted by England of not taking our ene my's goods from the ship of our friend. In the course of his speech Mr. Gibson referred to a letter written to him on behalf of the Church Defence Association, and declared that he held it to be not inconsistent with his position as a member of the Church of England to believe in the great Protestant princi ple of the right of private judgment and of religious equality. Mr. Gibson concluded his speech amid great cheering. Subsequently the meeting, which was extremely crowded, terminated in disorder on the apparent, opening of a discussion by some partisans of the Church Association, which led to a rush on the platform, and the mayor declared the proceedings closed. POLICE INTELLMENC 10. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Ruth Elsden was brought up for final examination, charged with stabbing Thomas Fosketh, potrnan at the Duke of York, Union•street, Bond-street. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for the prosecution. The complainant said—On the night of the 20th of January, the prisoner, who was known for her violence, and who had been forbidden the house, came into the taproom, and shortly afterwards he felt a blow on the ear, but did not know for the moment that he had been stabbed. The prisoner had a knife in her hand. She said, " I did it with this, and I meant to do it." Complainant was taken to the hospital, and had been under medical treat ment ever since. Some short time back complainant had been a witness against the prisoner in a case of disorderly conduct, on which occasion the prisoner was sentenced to seven days' imprisonment. _ _ Air. Norris Marshall, assistant surgeon at the Middlesex Hospital, said he examined the com plainant, and found a punctured wound in the ear at least an inch and a half in depth. Such a wound would be inflicted by the knife now produced. The prisoner said she should reserve her defence, and was fully committed for trial. Mr. David Llewellyn WZ3 summoned for having assaulted Mr. Conway Dign am. Mr. Edward Lewis, of 6 - mat Marlborough-street, appeared for the defendant. The complainant said he was stopping at a coffee. house in the London-road. He was walking in the Burlington-arcade with his sister, in the early part of January, when the defendant came up; laid hold of him, saying," These are the two -- thieves who perjured themselves at Brompton, and who are going to perjure themselves in the Windham case." The defendant then used disgusting language to his sister, and on complainant going for the protection of the police, the defendant said he would lock him up to prevent him from giving false evidence in the Windham case. Complainant, however, gave the defendant in charge for the assault. Cross-examined — The assault was confined to seizing hold of him in the arcade. Had not lived in any regular place for some time. "Went out with his sister merely to view the shops. Did not go out with the intention of meeting the defendant. Had seen the defendant on the 24th of December, but had not brought a mob round his house. A police constable was fetched to remove him, but complain ant was not removed, because ho went away of his own accord. Was a clerk, but out of a situation. Did not call out in the Arcade " Here comes one-eyed Llewellyn." Was brother-in-law to the defendant. Mr. Tyrwhitt—The Windham case is all over now. Mr. Lewis—lt is, and I think this ought to have been over likewise. Miss Dignarn gave her evidence to the same effect as that of her brother. Mr. Lewis said he was prepared to show that no assault had been committed ; but he was quite wil ling for the sake of peace that each party should be bound over to keep the peace towards each other. Mr. Tyrwhitt said this course would be the best. It generally happened that where parties belonging to the same family gave e - iidence in cases of lunacy on opposite sides a bad feeling prevailed for some time. He really thought that as the Windham case had terminated this case, which had arisen out of it, should end also. Mr. Llewellyn was not satisfied with this settle ment of the matter, and was proceeding to enter into scandalous personal statements, when he was stopped by Mr. Tyrwbitt , wh o refused to heer any thing more, and ordered both parties to enter into reeognisances. LAMBETH—John Bruce, a notorious card-sharp, who stood remanded from Friday last on a charge of being concerned with three confederates, not in custody, in drugging and cheating a French gentle man out of £7, was placed at the bar before Mr. Elliott for further examination. On Saturday week the prosecutor was picked up in the vicinity of the House of Lords by one of the gang who pretended to be a Frenchman, and who spoke the French language fluently, This person invited him first to a coffee-house in Hungerford market, and next to the Old Guildford Barge beer house, in Belvidere , road, which he represented to be his hotel. They were joined there by the pri soner and two others; and the prisoner exhibited that which the prosecutor believed to be banknotes and sovereigns, and introduced the three-card dodge, and urged the prosecutor to bet. He did se, and lost seven sovereigns, all the money be bad about him, when the sharpers managed to step . off one after another. The prosecutor having been in formed by a friend that he had been . grossly cheated out of his money, he seized the prisoner on subsequently meeting him in Leicester -square, and gave him into custody. On the prisoner being put to the bar yesterday the officer in charge of the case informed the magistrate that the prosecutor had been obliged to start for Paris on the day before o n urgent business, and would n o t be in London for several months, and co nsequence, was obli ge d to dis charge the prisoner. gl A hulking Italian, who gave the Mime of Charles monkey Augustus, as having largea i s n a his ful l grownrms terrier,sPan and of aed-dressed a ferocious a ppearance, was begging char ge d w i th and alarming several ladies by his monkey. Police-consta ble 307 P said, that on Saturday evening last he was on duty in front of the Crystal Palace, and saw the prisoner there begging and allowing his monkey to run about to the very great terror of the ladies leavi ng t h e pa l ace. M any of them were obliged to run into the road to avoid the animal, and several having also complained to him of the danger, he took the prisoner into cus tody. Oakes, the gaolor, here informed the magistrate that so numerous were the complaints of this mon key n uisance that the commissioners of police had issued directions that all persons exhibiting monkeys should be taken up. The prisoner, who offered nothing in defence, was committed to prison for 14 days, Soon afterwards the owner of the monkey made his appearance, and the animal was given up to him. SOUTHWARK.—Mr. James Briggs, an oil and eolourman, carrying on business in New-street, 13;drough-road, was brought before Mr. Burcham for further examination, charged with being con cerned with others not in custody in stealing and receivitig large quantities of emery cloth and paper, of considerable value, from the premises of Mr. John Oakey, No. 172, Blackfriars-road. Mr. Humphries again attended for the prosecu tion ; and Mr. Lewis defended the prisoner. The court was crowded as before by tradesmen from all parts of London, The prosecutor in this case carries on a very ex tensive business with certain engineers and ethers in the metropolis, and all parts of the United Kingdom. In consequence of finding largo quan tities of his emery cloth and paper in the posses sion of several small dealers, he was induced to make inquiries, and ascertained that they had been sold for about half their value, and must have been stolen from his stock. It being impossible to ob. tain evidence against the servants, several of those whom he suspected were discharged, and since then a great deal of the property was traced to the pos session of the prisoner, who had disposed of it to various oilmen in and around the metropolis through the means of a town traveller named Rushbrook. The latter, on his last examination, proved that he sold the emery cloth and paper for Briggs at a very low price, knowing well at the same time that it was Mr. Oakey's manufacture, and worth nearly double the money. Several oilmen carrying on business in and about Hackney and the City-road, proved purchasing reams of Rushbrook, and it was shown by the prosecutor that the goods so sold had been clandestinely removed from his stock by some: of his servants. The following additional evidence was given yeses terday : Mr. Abraham Bury said he carried on business as an oilman at No. 11, St. John's -square, Clerken well. On the 2d of October he purchased of Mr. Rushbrook goods amounting to .E 5 Bs, among which were two reams of emery paper, with Mr. Oakey's marks on them. He knew them directly, and paid about half-a-crown less than the value for each. A few days afterwards-Mr. Oakey called en him, and, he told what he had done, and from whom lie purchased the paper. He knew nothing whatever of the prisoner. The goods were brought by a ear man earned Morgan, whom he identified in court, William Morgan, an impudent fellow, a carman in the employ of a person named Moore, in the London-road, the man spoken to by last witness, said he did not know Mr. Bury, neither did he know Rushbrook, or any of the others. His evi dence was so contradictory, that Mr. Burcham. threatened to commit him for perjury. He was evidently mixed up in the plunder. Thomas Parrott, of 47, Princes-street, Dalston,_ said he was a commission traveller, and he had known Mr. Rushbrook for years. He also knew Mr. Rose, with whom they both dealt. One even ing in September witness was in the shop of Mr. Rose, at Hackney, when Rushbrook brought some goods in a cart. Morgan was the driver, and pri soner was in the vehicle. They all went to the Sir Walter Scott public-house opposite, where they saw the prisoner, when Rushbrook exclaimed to Briggs, " HaPoa, old fellow, I have not seen you for a long time," and handed him a glass of ale: We all left the house together and separated. On :he Sunday evening afterwards I went to the Suf folk Arms, Boston-street, Hack ne y- roa d , an d saw Rushbrook's son, a friend of hie, and the prisoner. Witness called out "Mr. Briggs," when the prisoner looked at him and said " Yes." He then told him he had just seen Rushbrook, and he wanted to see im. Briggs then accompanied him to the Seven Sisters, where they met Rushbrook, and then the prisoner called out, "I know it's all right now. I thought you and the other young man were detec- • rives." They a ll entered the public-house, when Briggs told Rushbrook he must keep out of the way a little while and he would provide for his wife and family, and he would send him £3 on the Monday following. On that day witness was with Rushbrook, when a young man came to the latter and gave him £3. After that witness went with Rush brook to Brompton, where they met the pri soner, and all went to the Angel public-house in Farringdon-street. Two sovereigns were put on. , the table by some one, and Rushbrook took them up and put them in his pocket. A man named Leggatt (who had formerly been carman to the prosecutor) then came into the room and something was said about the expense in keeping Rushbrook out of the way. Briggs said ho could not afford it unless Leggatt and Skinner (a former clerk in the prose cutor's employ) assisted him. Leggatt said he . would see Skinner about it, and he appointed to meet Rushbrook the next evening. In cross-examination by Mr. Lewis, witness said that he travelled for Mr. Stokes, and had met Rush hrool.: in the way of business. The latter told him that there was same bother about Mr. Oakley's paper, and he was wanted to keep out of the way. Ile did not know the person until he was introduced to him at the Sir Walter Scott. Witness did not think Rushbrook had done wrong, although he re ceived £3 from Briggs to keep out of the way. He heard Rushbrook tell the latter that he could nat keep out of the way under £3 a week. Robert Barnes, an old man, said he purchased Rushbrook, in September last, two reams of Oakey's emery paper, at 125., and two reams of cloth at 14s. per ream. Mr. Humphries here informed his worship that the wholesale price was nearly double that price, and all the dealers knew it. He had several other witnesses to call before he completed the case, therefore he asked for another remand. Mr. 13ureham remanded the prisoner until Mon— day. Mr. Lewis here asked his worship to accept bail for the prisoner, as he could produce sureties to any amount. Mr. Bureharn told him he should not accede to his request under any circumstances. The prisoner was then removed. 'IOU ACCIDENT AT CIiBIICAL WOR.47s. About 10 o'clock on Saturday forenoon an acci dent occurred at Messrs. Hugh Lee Pattinson and - Co.'s chemical works at the Felling, by which the lives of several men were very nearly sacrificed. It • appears that at the time in question it became the duty of Robert Hunter, overman, a young lad named Stevenson, a man named Kennedy, and two other persons, to clean out a pit wherein chalk, after undergoing the action of muriatic acid, leaves ti flinty deposit, which it is necessary to bring oubi the pit occasionally. This pit is twenty feet deep, and is entered by a hole at the top about two feet in diameter ; and in this instance the men seemed to have acted somewhat incautiously in descending at a time when there was a considerable quantity of o carbonicw hich a c t i h d gas e yap fi p floating n i h n a t v h e e b p e i t e , n o f u t n h s e u p s p r i e c s i e o n u c s e . It happened, however, that after they had been a short time in the pit a man named Quin, who was employed in th e bl eac hi ng powder chambers above, descended from thence, still wearing the " nozzlo" or protection for the nostrils against the injurious effects that would otherwise be experienced in that department of the works; and he, having his suspicion aroused, went down the ladder into the pit discovered the men in a state of unconscious ness. An alarm wns raised, and Mr. Watson, Mr. Wilson, and Mr. W. Proctor were soon on the spot, and in a short time the men were brought out. Mr. Torbock, surgeon, assistant to Mr. Coun cillor, had been summoned, and though the men had been very far overcome by the power of the noxious gas they were, after tb^ application of proper restorative measures, so far recovered to be sent to their homes, no fears being entertained as to their vite ll iwaly d s, their s t ay i n th e gas b een minutes longer fatal results m us t cut Hunter bruisedand som b e y o f t h t e h i r e other t e seun r e e dwa c o.
