MANSION.HOUSE. Speridoni Luseg, the Italian, who had been fully committed for trial for stealing two rolls of silk, of the value of £B, from the premises of Messrs. Candy, foreign merchants, of Watling-street, and remanded upon the charge of stealing a piece of poplin, of the value of two guineas, from the shop of Messrs. Parry, linen drapers, of Ludgate-hill, was again brought up. At the last examination, Mr. T. Parry said he had not the slightest doubt that the piece of poplin. produced by the officer had been stolen from his premises by the prisoner, who had paid him fre quent visits during the last several months, upon one only of which he made a trifling purchase. Mr. A. Siegenberg, clothier, 154, St. George_ street East, said he purchased the piece of poplin of the prisoner for 30s. about two months since. The Lord Mayor—Have you purchased other articles of hirn ? Witness—Yes, I bought this parcel of handker chiefs of him a few weeks ago ; but I could not deal with him, he was too dear—too high for me. (A laugh.) Legg, the officer, said he had been unable to find an owner for the handkerchiefs. Mr. Lewis, jun., for the prisoner, submitted that, inasmuch as the piece of poplin could not be iden tified as having been stolen from Alessi's. Parry's premises, that case was at an end.

It , Temporary Offices-141, Fenchurch-street. is proposed to establish the above company for the pur- Pose of sending out from this dountry steamers to navigate the inland rivers of India. ,The profitable nature of such an undertaking ,has been ineed beyond all doubt by the fact that an association, "The In dia General Steam Navigation Company," hasjust declared a dividend of upwards of 100 per cent. The following extract from a leading article of the" Times," of the , 29th January, points out in very forcible language the profitable nature of an undertaking such as the one proposed. "But what do we now hear froM India? They wonder there what our shipbuilders are about. Month after month they are expecting the steamers that are to come. The In dian General Steam Navigation Company declares this month,' says our correspondent, a dividend of 100 and upwards per cent. The home Government had been requested to send out six river steamers, and it had sent out only one, which, it said, would be enough Next month,' continues our infor- ' mant, • the Indian Government had to engage all the freight of six for two trips at a price which would have bought the new vessels wanted twice over.' There is room and work, we are told, for 300 steamers on the Ganges alone, flowing as. it does through a territory with a population of 350 to the . square mile, with an export trade of £16,000,000, and an internal trade beyond human calculation. Yet, with this vast opening before us, there are found men in the prime of life, neither schoolboys nor dotards, who can west their time in holding meetings and memorialising Government to find them customers for their shipping. Many a time ere this has war ministered to peace, infusing a quicker element into its idle, dreamy soul. To this mutiny, perhaps, we owe the real opening of the Indian navigation to British enterprise, and the railways which are certain to follow. But, verbum sat, We have said enough to start our shipbuilders and .ship owners if they are Englishmen." The East India Steam Navigation Company (Limited) will have the advantage of commencing its operations with an entirely new fleet of steamers, constructed on the latest and Most improved principles. The deep interest which the Government of India and the various Indian Railway Companies must naturally have in the success of this undertaking, promises to the proprietors an amount of support not usually commanded by public com panies. The affairs of the comp any w ill b e managed i n the manner adopted by the " Peninsular and Oriental Steam Company," e and the various Indian Railway Companies, that is by a board of directors in London, and an agency and superintendents in „ Application for shares must be accompanied by the bankers' 4 0 .teelpt for the sum of 10s. for every share applied for.

An equal number of ves se l s of still aspoe,ate power is at p resen t i n preparat i on, and will be sent L soon as possible. Before embarking in the present undertaking the Directors 5 8 4 not only satisfied themselves of its eminently profitable natare, but they had secured for it the marked co-operation ande Indian Government, by the acquisition of a subsidy; ,the Government both by the gift of land for stations, _orKshops, and depots, of wood for fuel, and in every other' 4Y, has rendered every possible aid to the present under ,`;:ag• M the sane time the Directors have insured com in't eXemption from Gove/nment control and interference ; seas this is the only Company so distinguished which lios -8 an, Government support. the c Directors have the satisfaction of finding* that not only Reports of the Company's servants in India, but the levoh,o_l2 concurrent testimony of the ad ices received from that able/nrY, through whatever channel, completely confirms the able anticipations they long since formed of the profit :le.charaeter of the present undertaking.

The first steps, how , having been successfully taken, the whole of the exist ';e9,' Shares in the Company having been allotted, and being ItE a premium in the market, and the field being so large as to require a large capital to work it in an efficient manner, the D irectors are of opinion that the time is come when the capi tal of the Company may be advantageously increased, and they have, therefore, resolved to' raise the capital to half a /Zillion sterling without delay.

He regretted that in many parts of the country speeches had been made calcu lated to set class against class. If there was any question more than another that the working classes should approach in a more than ordinarily concilia tory spirit it was that of an extension of the franchise to themselves. (Cheers.) He regretted that many, who were considered the friends of the people, should have acted so erroneously as to have made speeches tending to set class against class. (Hear.) He was willing to extend the franchise to house holders rated at £s—(cheers)—and if they gave him the opportunity by returning him as their re presentative, he should be prepared to give every measure that might be brought forward his consi deration and support, in order that every class of the population might be represented. (Cheers.) Everything must be an affair of progress, and it was not right that they should jump to the conclu sion that this or that measure was the right one. (Hear, hear.) He had been asked whether he was in favour of the Reform Bill proposed by Mr. Bright. (Hear, hear.) He did not wholly agree with that bill—there were some portions of it very good, other portions which did not go so far as he (Mr. Angerstein) had expressed in his address his willingness to go, and there were also portions which the Legislature would never agree to. (Hear.) He had been told the other day that there were already four or five bills on the question of reform laid on the table of the House of Commons, and he therefore held it would be unwise for any consti tuency to persist in pledges from their representa tives as to what extent they would vote. Mr. Angerstein then referred to a correspondence which had been published in reference to the proposed docks at Greenwich, and resumed his seat amid general cheering. _ _ Mr. JACKSON moved a resolution pledging the meeting to use every means to secure Mr. Anger stein's return as the representative of the borough. Mr. G. W. BENNETT seconded the resolution, which was carried by a large majority. HYTHE. FOLKESTONE, MONDAY EVENING. A prospective vacancy has been created in the representation of the united boroughs of Hythe, Folkestone, and. Sandgate, by the candidature of Sir John Ramsden (its present member) for the West Riding of Yorkshire, and already, several addresses have been issued, and other candidates promised. The only gentleman, however, who has, as yet, commenced in earnest is Baron Meyer A. Rothschild, who arrived by train this afternoon, at four o'clock, and after meeting many of the electors at the King's Head'lnn, proceeded at once with his canvass. In his address, the Baron reminds the Actors that he has lost no time in redeeming the pledge he gave on the hustings, at the contest of 1847, to offer his services to represent the consti tuens3y in Parliament. Time, he says, has only strengthened his conviction of the soundness of the principles which originally recommended him to their notice. He is, as he always has been, a liberal, and should he be elected, it would be his earnest endeavour to enforce, to the extent of his ability, the practical adoption of those measures which may yet be required to give full effect to that policy of peace, economy, and reform which had distinguish ed the liberal party. He is an advocate for the bal lot, and such an extension of the suffrage and re distribution of scats as would effectually secure a full, fair, and free representation of the whole people. He is by sympathy and conviction an ardent sup porter of the rights of conscience, and of opinion that the position which the question of church rates had recently assumed in Parliament rendered their early abolition inevitable. Such are the Baron's political views.—The address of Mr. James Wilde, Q.C., states that he is a liberal, and con vinced that it is still necessary to pursue with vigour the course of progressive improvement which had been steadily advocated by the liberal party, and which had of late years guided the legislature of this country. Deeply interested in the great question of Parliamentary reform, he earnestly de sires its satisfactory settlement. Whilst wishing to extend the franchise so as to keep pace with the growing intelligence of the people, he should not be prepared to extend it so far as to deprive the mid dle classes of their present political power. He is in favour of the abolition of church rates, and eco nomy in the public expenditure. DR. KAHN'S ANATOMICAL MUSEUM, 3, TICHBOURNE-STREET (Opposite the Hay market).

FERGUSON CAMROUX, Manager. GALWAY. On Friday a public meeting of Mr. Lever's friends was held at (be Galway Town Court-house, which was densely thronged. The Rev. Father DALY addressed the meeting, referring at great length to Mr. Lever's claims on the electors, and especially to his exertions to pro mote a packet station at Galway. " Let me tell you," said the reverend orator, "let me tell you, my friends and citizens of Galway, I have no poli tics now but my packet station. (Vehement and prolonged cheering.) My politics now consist of this—that if I vote for a man, it will be for that man who will apply every energy of his mind, of his heart, and soul, and body to effect, to complete, and to establish firmly the Irish and American packet station at Galway. (Immense cheering.) And, moreover, if I vote for the man who will do that—(A voice : " Sure there he is alongside your reverence." Loud and hearty cheers for Mr. Lever) —I will bind him, if he goes into the House of Commons, to vote for nothing that will peril my packet station. (Cheers.) Repeal of the Union was talked of, and I was a Repealer; but Repeal of the Union would not bring us money for our arti sans and labourers, and I sincerely believe it would not bring us union among ourselves. (Hear, hear.) It would leave us not only in the dangers of dis union among ourselves, but in the peril of dangers from abroad—(hear, hear)—and the condition c the poOr working man would not be a bit the better by it. - (Hear, hear.) Not so by the establishment of the packet station, for that would bring plenty and comfort to the home and hearth of the poor men of Galway, in whose behalf I have put myself forward. (Great cheering.) There is a gentleman standing by my side at this moment (pointing to Mr. Samuelson, the Mayor of Hull, whose presence was acknowledged by most cordial, genuine Irish cheering), who is the contractor for building two despatch express steamers that will be guaranteed to make the passage from Galway to St. John's in less than five days, (Immense cheering.) Oh, again and again I repeat it, all shame upon you, Limerick conspirators, who, in 1852, when Father Daly was working like a horse to get an Irish packet station, you raised your voice as enemies of your country, but when I did not succeed at that _ _ you left what you now put forward as your claims—you left them in abeyance from that day to this—until you found that the sun of prosperity was commencing to dawn upon Ireland, and that it was about to rise, as, thank God, it has now risen, over the bright waters of Galway bay. (Tre mendous cheering, the whole dense crowd in the Court-house shouting vehemently for several minutes.) Father Daly concluded by suggesting that a deputation should wait on Sir Thomas Red ington, and request him to postpone for the present his claims to the representation of Galway. On the motion of E. C. BURKE, Esq., a deputa tion was appointed to proceed At once from the Sir T. REDTNGTON then briefly addressed the meeting. He observed that the constituency wished that Mr. Lever should be returned as a proof of the universal feeling in favour of the scheme he had so actively worked for transatlantic communi cation, and he (Sir T. Redington) felt that if such were the opinion of the constituency, although he might pursue the contest to a successful issue, yet he would never feel happy if any one even sus• pected that he had by his conduct endangered for a moment the great cause in which their hearts were all engaged. (Cheers.) The meeting dispersed with three enthusiastic cheers for Mr: Leven. rizoctsiremiww.A.o— LINLITHGOW. The election of a representative for the county of Linlithgow, in room of Mr. George Dundas, who has received a colonial appointment, took place on Saturday. The formalities having been gone through, Mr. Blair, of Avonton. proposed the Hon. Charles Bailie, Lord Advocate of Scotland. Mr. Walker, of Inneravon, seconded the nomination. No other candidate having been proposed, the sheriff called for a show of hands, and declared the Lord Advocate elected as member of Parliament for Linlithgowshire. The Lord Advocate, whose appearance was greeted with loud cheers, then ad dressed the electors at some length. After refer ring to the circumstances which led to the present government taking office, and the measures which they carried through during the last session, he came to the questions now occupying the public mind. On that of peace or war he expressed his belief that nothing would be left undone by the Government to preserve the peace of Europe, and for this pur pose they proposed to put the navy in a more effi cient state than it was in at present. On the ques- tion of reform the hon. and learned gentleman said his lips to a certain extent were scaled. He could not with propriety tell them the nature of the mea sure which the Government intended to introduce. As to his own feelings on the subject, he would sity frankly that he never intended to be anything else than what is known as a Conservative. In conclu sion, he expressed his determination to perform the duties devolving on him to the best of his ability. FOLKESTONE. Yesterday the town was all alive with the Pro spect of an early election, on the translation of Sir A. W. Ramsden, Bart., to the representatian of the West Riding of Yorkshire. The candidates, who made an early appearance, were General Hankey, Mr. J. Wilde, Mr. Laing (of the Brighton Railway Company), and Baron Mayer de Rothschild. It was soon manifest, however, that the last-named gentleman was the popular candidate. The Baron met the electors at the King's Arms Inn at four o'clock, and after a short speech proceeded at once to canvass the borough, and was highly successful. Last evening, at seven o'clock, a large and enthu siastic gathering took place at the Town Hall, to hear from Baron Rothschild an exposition of his political principles. At the close a vote of confi dence in the Baron was unanimously passed, and a committee formed to secure his election. It is gene rally thought that Baron Rothschild will walk over the course. General Hankey, the Hon. Mr. Camp bell, and Mr. James Wylde have already retired from the field. It is rumoured, however, that Lord Waldegrave is to make his appearance to-morrow in the Government interest, but the noble lord stands not the slightest chance of success. LAW INTELLIGENCE.—Feb. 7. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. Sittings at Nisi Prius, after Term, before Lord Campbell and a Special Jury.) MALLALUE T. LYON. The trial of this case was resumed at the sitting of the Court to•day. In reply to a question by one of the jury, Mr. James, the friend of the defendant, who was under examination on Saturday, said the age of the defendant was 61. Mr. James, cross-examined by Mr. M. Chambers —Mrs. Lyon was 27 years of age when married, and is now about 38. After her marriage Mrs. Lyon was anxious to have her house embellished with articles of vertu •, both his houses were hand somely furnished at th e ti me . M r . L yon ma d e no complaint of Mrs. Lyon's extravagance. Mr. Lyon did not inform me that he had induced Mrs. Lyon to come over from Rome to Torquay with the belief she was to live with him. She came over and Mr. Lyon left Torquay for Paris one hour after her arrival. He left her with the l)eaking's. He said it was necessary for the benefit of her health that she should come over from Rome. I did not see her when she first came. Mr. Lyon said she was not in a fit state to be seen. Ab - out a month after Mr. Lyon had left I went to Torquay to see her, but dick not succeed. I went again in another month, and I made altogether four visits to Torquay whilst she was there. I saw her three times. Mr. Lyon had written to me about a separation. I saw her first alone, and then she call e d D r . D ea ki ng . Sh e was much averse to the separation. I gave her to under stand she would have no allowance from her husband unless she consented to a separation. I put it to her in as polite a manner as possible. She talked the matter over with Dr. Deaking. He said, " You have for a long time wanted it ; why not consent to it now ?" I and Dr. Deaking urged her to agree to a separation. She had a male and female atten dant accustomed to insane persons. Saw Lady Charlotte Bury afterwards. She was rather reluc tant at first against the separation, but she did not protest against Mr. Lyon's conduct in leaving Mrs. Lyon there, and wishing for a separation. Lady Charlotte had always lived with her daughter, and Mr. Lyon wished her, after the separation, to con tinue to live with her mother. I was staying with Mr. Lyon when Mrs. Lyon required a restitution of conjugal rights. He vas then living in South street. It was about the time of the decree that I was there. I was with him in November, 1857. He had no establishment there, only his brother and sisters were staying there. I remained there six weeks. He had only two or three servants in the house. In the spring of 1858 I and Mrs. James resided with Mr. Lyon at 31, South-street, Park lane, for six weeks. He said, " I have no establish ment, but if you like you can bring your servants and stay here." He slept there before he took the house in Gloucester-place, and then he did not. He, however, came home in the morning and had his breakfast, and dined in South-street. By Lord Campbell—Was the establishment in South-street kept up at Mr. Lyon's expense ? Witness—Yes ; he had a Swiss valet, who could cook. Mr. Lyon's brother and my brother in law dined in the house. Lord Campbell--You were hospitably enter :aincd ? Witness—Yes ; we, part of the time, went to Gor ing. It was a made up kind of a thing ; we took our servants down. No establishment was kept there, only two servants. The witness was further exa mined to show that at the time the decree for restitution of conjugal rights was made, and he took the furnished house in Gloucester-place, he had his two establishments, one at Goring Park, and the other in South-street. Re-examined by Mr. Lush—ln 1852 3lr. Lyon broke up his establishment in South-street, where I visited him before he kept a number of servants. Lord Campbell—What does it matter whether he kept 20 servants or two servants P Mr. Lush—lt does here. Re-examination continued—ln the spring of 1858, when I informed him I wanted to bring Mrs. James to London for medical advice, he said, you like to bring your own servants you are wel come to the use of the house in South-street." Major Lyon —I am brother of the 'defendant, repiding at 22, Park-lane. After the marriage I was in the habit of frequently visiting my brother at Goring. I had a room there to use. I first obs early ervedserve ar t a o e f h l a B n s g i e . in l t iNr c l on s . t n L u y e o d n ' t s o increase. manne r Sheth e had not been in ill health before to my knowledge. At this time she was in a great state of excitement. Mr. Lush—To what cause did you attribute that excitement and change ? Witness—l considered it arose from excitement. I noticed she drank a great quantity of wine at dinner. The excitement increased, and I withdrew in consequence from so frequently visiting at my brother's house. When I last saw her in 1852 she was in the same excited state. They went to Rome in 1853. I did not see her again until her return from Devonshire, and then not to speak to her. In the summer of 1853 iny brother applied to me to be come a trustee, and I c o n sent e d. I h ave seen my brother very often si nce th e se p ara ti on and visited him at G oring .

Lord Campbell—The Swiss. And in the capa eit3yraol Major c.oLn— oakmyoptoboel?lH_e actednAhn couldde a d d c cook. c Major Lyon—Yes, Cross-examined by Mr. Chambers—My brother informed me what he had done, but he never con sulted me, neither did I advise him. I don't know who drew up the paper my brother read to the ser vants before Mrs. Lyon, after the decree for resti tution of conjugal rights. I never saw it, and never asked him its contents, but he told me gene rally its object. He did not tell me if he prepared it himself. I was aware he slept at Gloucester place and York-place, the residence he took for Mrs. Lyon under the decree, and left early in the morning. He told me it was necessary that he should sleep there every night to make it his domicile or home, and that he was acting under legal advice. I knew the fact that his valet, who slept in South-street brought his clothes every morn ing to him from South-street to Gloucester-place, attended to him, and that he then went to South street to breakfast. I can't swear that he said " I must go there every night, but I shall return home every morning." I can't swear he said " home." I think it was "my home." I don't know that my brother kept his wardrobe, &c., at South-street, and that the valet took down his dressing-case, &c., to Gloucester-place in a carpet-bag. I think he came to town in April, 1858, and remained for the season—till the end of June; that is, he spent half' the week at Goring, and the other half in London. He then went to Scotland, accompanied by myself and cousin. Ho has shooting moors there. On his return he went to Goring, where he entertained some of his family and friends, the Swiss valet acting as cook. My brother then left England, early in December; but I don't know if the writ in this action was previously- served upon him. I knew Mrs. Lyon had been attended by Si:: James Clark, Dr. Locock and Dr. Capes. He told me of the certificates of Sir James Clark and Dr. Bird; and that he engaged two females fit to look after a person in Mrs. Lyon's state of mind. I once took him home to Gloucester-place, and saw his bed room, which was the back room on the ground floor. A few days before my brother went abroad the last time he did not give a dinner party in South-street. His brothers and sisters might have dined there privately with him. Re-examined by Mr. Lush—My brother said he was acting under the advice of the Queen's Advo cate relative to the decree ; the medical gentlemen above referred to attended in consequence of her ill health, arising from a miscarriage on two occa. sions. Lord Campbell summed up, and the jury imme diately found a verdict for the plaintiff for £125 16s. 5d., the second part of his demand. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Feb. 7. The February General Sessions of the Peace for the county of Middlesex commenced this morning before Mr. Pashley, Q.C., Assistant-Judge, Mr. Creasy, and Mr. Payne, deputies ; and Mr. Hogarth, Mr. Henry White, Sir James Tyler, Mr. Sharp, and other magistrates. There were 46 prisoners, besides bail cases, for trial. The Assistant-Judge delivered a short charge to he Grand Jury. John Jest, 7 .'26, servant, was indicted for stealing a revolver pistol and other articles, of the value of £5 and upwards, the property of Captain Frederick Sayer, in a dwelling-house of our Sovereign the Queen (St. James's Palace), and also for stealing five coats and other articles, value £5 and upwards, the property of Sir Charles Beaumont Phipps, in the said dwelling of her Majesty. - He pleaded guilty. Mr. Sleigh said he as instructed on behalf of the prosecution, and it was his duty to submit to the Court that the offence the prisoner had acknow ledged himself guilty of was one of an aggravated nature. The prisoner was servant to Captain Sayer, Peputy-Assistant Quartermaster-General, who had apartments in St. James's Palace, de scribed in the indictment as one of the dwellings of the Queen, as also had Sir C. B. Phipps, the other prosecutor, Captain Sayer's father-in .law. The prisoner had been treated by both these gentle men with great kindness, but during the whole of the time he had been in Captain Sayer's service he had stolen and made away with articles. belonging to his master and Sir Charles Phipps, and Inspec tor Whicher, the detective officer, in whose hands the case was placed by Sir Charles, when the pri soner was detected, had traced duplicates of articles pledged for about £2O Which really were worth over £BO, all the property of Sir C. Phipps and Capt. Sayer. In addition to this, the prisoner had been guilty of conduct of the most disgraceful cha racter to his master, whose kindness he had so ill re quited. Capt. Sayer had a stock of very splendid sherry of almost fabulous value. This, or the-greater part of it, the prisoner had appropriated to his own use, or had made away with in some way, and had replaced with bottles procured at a small price from public houses--altogether a worse case of larceny by a servant could not well be conceived. Captain Sayer was then called into the witness box, and ix answer to his lordship, said the prisoner had £4O a year, with board and lodging, and £5 for beer money. He had been in his service about six months, and the pawning of articles belonging to himself and Sir C. Phipps commenced, as far as could be ascertained by the duplicates found by Whither, about a month after the situation had been given to him. Really, he had scarcely any duty to perform, but he was kept on out of consi deration, and from what had been discovered, it appeared that lie had committed these depredations to find the means of frequenting dancing saloons. Mr. Sleigh said the prisoner had written a letter desiring that a gold chain might be given to a certain young laay, whom he would not name for obvious reasons, and from that an inference might be drawn as to how some of the proceeds had been disposed of. The Assistant Judge said this was a very bad case indeed. It was a double case of larceny in a dwelling house to the amount o f over £5, and by a servant, under very aggravating circumstances. He had an easy situation, £4O a year, and £5 for beer, as well as board and lodging, and in' six months he had plund ere d t o the amount of close upon £loo,for the sake of frivolity and amusement. The sentence upon him was that lie be kept in penal servitude for four years, part of which term, how ever, might be remitted, in case of good conduct. (Before Mr. Creasy.) Win. Edgard Mit c h e ll and Thos. Thorp, barmen, were indicted for stealing the stem of 25., the moneys of Edwin Winder, the master of Thorp. Thorp was further indicted for stealing 25., the moneys of his said master, and Thomas Gill was indicted for stealing 25., the moneys of the said Edwin Winder Mr. Ribton appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. F. H. Lewis defended Gill and Mitchell. The Grand Jury ignored the bill as against Thorp. The prosecutor, Mr. Winder, is the proprietor of the Mogul Tavern and Middlesex Music-hall, in Drury-lane, and the charge against the prisoners, supported by the evidence of an accomplice named Allbrow, was that they had acted in concert' to rob Mr. Winder, by Thorp and the witness giving false change over the counter to the other. In the result the jury acquitted Gill and found Mitchell guilty of feloniously receiving. Ho was sentenced to four years' penal servitude. PORTLAND HARBOUR OF REFUGE, Feb. 3.—Th e wind, which has been blowing heavily from the west war d for some days, has Gonslderably moderated an d veered m round to the rth, which has enabled a large number of v essels, bound down Channel, to leave the anchorage. Upwards of 80 weighed and sailed during the clay. Her. Majesty's ships in harbour are the Blenheim, 60, the Liffey, 50, and the gwilmt Biter, 2, Legg—No, my lord, he always put it in a sling when he entered a workhouse to steal, but I have lately seen him frequently in the streets when - he wore no The Lord 6 Mayor—He does not use the sling now. Mr. Lewis—No ; his arm is well now, but he had Luegu,A, wastiken into cus etc is tealthy place. .CLau', ,ghter. ) Th w e prisoner, - who reserved defence, - was then -also fully committed upon the charge of stealing the poplin. Thomas Telfour, a shabbily-dressed man, was charged with stealing a pint and a half pint pot, two gill measures, and two wine glasses, from th e house of Mr. J. Dowell, proprietor of the Bay Tre• Tavern, St. Swithin's-lane. Miss E. Laidlaw, a relative of the prosecutor, said that on Saturday evening the prisoner.came to the bar and had something to drink. Immediately he was gone she missed two gill measures and two wine glasses. She went after him and requested him to come back, and upon his way he fell down, when off went his hat and out tumbled the pint pot produced. As soon as he entered the house he dropped the half-pint pot upon the floor, and took from his pocket the two glasses and two measures. A policeman was then called, and prisoner begged for forgiveness. The prisoner, who said he had been driven to the act through poverty, was committed fortwo months with hard labour. David Vizard, a private in the Coldstream Guards, stationed at the Tower, was charged with assaulting Ann Mullens, the wife of a lamplighter, and Hyacinth Brennan, the wife of a labourer. Ann Mullens said that on the previous night, about 10 o'clock, she was standing with her husband, and Mr. and. Mrs. Brennan, in front of the bar of a public-house in Fish -street-hill, when they asked the prisoner to have something to drink. They were engaged. in conversation for a short time, and as they were about to depart she saw Mrs. Brennan, who had been struck by the prisoner, lying on the ground. Sho remonstrated with him for his cowardly conduct, when he deliberately took off his belt and cut her across the face with it. (The face of the witness bore marks of recent violence.) The prisoner was not sober. The prisoner's Sergeant, in reply to the Lord Mayor, said—The prisoner has been a very short time in the regiment, and he bears an indifferent character. The Lord Mayor—l should judge so. Prisoner—l was not sober, but lam very sorry for what has occurred. Brennan, whose wife had also been assaulted by the prisoner, said he did not wish to press the charge as his wife bore no marks of violence. The Lord Mayor—lt is a very cowardly act to strike a woman, under any circumstances, and yet you took off your belt, a most mischievous instru ment, and which may one day or other cause loss of life for the purpos e o f comm itti ng t hi s assau l t. This practice I suppose will be continued until a general order will be issued against your wearing belts when you mix with the public. For this cowardly and unmanly assault, committed by a soldier who ought to know better, you must bo fined 10s., or suffer 14 days imprisonment. I do not know whether my recommendation will have any effect with the commander of your corps, but I should suggest that for the future belts be not worn except in barracks. The Sergeant—l believe, my lord, the prisoner is the first man who will come under a new order for taking off his belt and striking a civilian in the street. The order is, that for so doing he shall not be allowed to wear it for fivo years when off duty. The Lord Mayor—l am very glad to hear it. This is the second case of this sort that has come before me within the last ten days. THI? NAVY. Her Majesty's screw steam-transport Urgent, Commander. John W. D.
