LAW-THIS DAY• COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, BENT BALL V. SMIPLE. This case (the particulars of which will be found in an other column) was resumed this morning. The examination of witnesses for the defence occupied the Court the whole of the morning. The case is not ex pected to conclude to-day. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. SEAMAN V. LORD KEANE AND OTHERS. This case was resumed this morning. The learned Judge intimated that as this action had been brought for loss of character, he was of opinion, under all the circumstances, that the action could not be maintained, and therefore he should direct a nonsuit. A verdict to that effect having been returned by the jury, Mr. Collier, on the part of the plaintiff, tendered a bill ol exceptions to his lordship's ruling. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Kerr.) SINGULAR BILL PORGERY.--A LITTLE HISTORY. - FANS V. This was an action to recover £lO upon a dishonoured bill of exchange for that amount. Plaintiff produced the document, which was accepted by one Hope, and alleged to be drawn by defendant. Mr. Barrow (for defendant)—Now, Mr. Hyett, look at the signature. Defendant--Well, it is not mine, it is a forgery. His Honour (to plaintiff) —Why don't you sue Hope ? Plaintiff—He is dead. Defendant—All I know about Hope is this : sore time ago he came to me to get a bill discounted. I made a few inquiries, and found that the acceptor had run off after swindling everybody, and that the drawer had taken a place, had in one quarter of a hundred coals, which he paid for, but endeavoured to get half a hundred more upon credit. (Roars of laughter.) Of course I oould do aothing with such a precious bill, and so declined to negotiate it. As to the signature of this bill I know nothing whatever of it. Ills Honour—On, of course after Mr. Ilyett's evidence it is perfectly clear that he knows nothing of the matter, and it was Hope who swindled plaintiff out of his money. I must find for defendant. Mr. Barrow—Under all the circumstances, I am in. structed not to ask for costs. Verdict for defendant. POLICE---THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CHARGE OF OBTAINING MONEY BY FRAUD---CURIOPS CASE.—Joseph Healey, of 4, Old North-street, Holborn, collector, was charged before Mr. Knox with obtaining some moneyfrora Mrs. Ellen Blackler, 98, Archer-street, with intent to defraud. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, SIX O'CLOCK, Mr. Crook prosecuted, and said the case was one of ob taining money by false pretences from the prosecutrix, the accused representing himself as the manager of a Friendly Society, under the patronage of all the Archbishops and Bishops of the Catholic Church, and by these representa tions he had obtained several small sums from different poor persons. He (Mr. Crook) had had a similar case against the accused before Mr. Henry, at Bow -street Police Court, on a summons, when the matter was allowed to be settled out of court, on the accused promising to resiet from the practice for the future. He (Mr. Crook) put in a letter from the Secretary to Cardinal Wiseman showing that the accused was not authorised to use the names he had in serted in the prospectus. _ _ BUCHAREST. Mr. Knox said he could not detain one of the Queen's subjects without evidence. Mr. Crook said the accused promised the parties that on the' payment of id. a week at a certain time they would have 108. a week, and £lO at death. A gentleman was present who had been to several of the persons connected with the establishment mentioned in the prospectus, and ascertained that the persons had never given any authority for their names to be used by tho accused. Mr. Knox said he would consent to the accused being put back if Mr. Crook could, by his so doing, produce any evidence. Mr. Crook said he could produce the secretary to Cardi nal Wiseman, but he was at Leytonstone. Mr. Knox observed that the accused's being given into custody was premature. Mr. Crook said ho could go into the different statements in the prospectus, and show they were false. Mr. Knox asked how Mr. Crook could show that. Mr. Crook said he could produce the secretary hereafter, Mr. Knox remarked that the prosecutrix's evidence would be that she paid the accused money on the faith of representations which he (Mr. Croak) contended were false but which he had no evidence to prove. The man must be discharged, but he can be taken again. The accused was then discharged. A letter from Bucharest of the 26th ult., in the Augsburg Gazette, says : " For some days past a considerable move ment has existed among the Consular body, in con sequence of a considerable quantity of arms hav ing been sent from Bessarabia, and accusations have been made personally against Prince Cousa on the subject. The English and Austrian Consuls were the first to move in the matter, and they were told that the affair was only that of 40 vehicles laden with old rusty muskets and other military effects, which had been sent to Bucharest to be repaired, as it could be done there cheaper than elsewhere. No difficulty, however, existed in proving that it was not 40, but from 600 to 700 cartloads which had arrived. A report was current that a M. Bonaki Vogorides had ordered them on his own account, with a view to projects which he con templated in Bulgaria. That version, however, appeared so incredible, that it made the Russian Consul-General and his colleague of France shrug their should(rs. As to Russia, her agents will know how to take measures in order to prevent those arms from falling into the hands of the Polish emigrants, who are collected in different places along the frontier. 4.16.4 Share 100 6 4 & 1091 9 71 1181 2 17 961 6 1012 82 128 1 i 1u 10 25 10 10 5 50 Bt 20 324 10 'OLONIAL GOVERNMENT SECU Can.

Catherine Froomo, housemaid to Dr. Dudley, of Belgrave road, said that yesterday afternoon the prisoner came to the house and said he wished to see the doctor. He inquired how long the doctor would be, and being told half an hour, he said he would wait. Another servant in the establishment said she was called, and showed the prisoner to the dining-room to wait for the master. After he had been there a few minutes he rang the bell and asked for a glass of water, which was taken to him. Presently the doctor came home, and then it was discovered that the prisoner had disappeared from the dining-room. The doctor being informed of the transaction went in search of prisoner, and found him in a dressing-room on the third floor. Ho gave him into custody. Mr. Paynter—ls any thing known of the prisoner ? Dennis, the gaoler—He is well-known as a bad charaCter. Mr. Paynter— What did he say he wanted of the doctor when he went to the house ? Witness—He said he Wanted to see him about an urgent case at Clapham. Mr. Paynter (to prisoner)—What have you to say ? Prisoner—lt's all a mistake ; I rang the boll for the ser vant, and she neglected to come. Mr. Paynter—What made you leave the dining-room ? Prisoner—A most disagreable polish had been put upon ono of the tables, which smelt offensively, and I determined upon leaving the house, so I went up stairs to look for a servant to tell her my intention ; when the doctor met me upon the stairs, Dr. Dudley -1 found you in my dressing-room. Evidence having been giving touohing prisoner's habits and associates, He was committed to hard labour for three months. THAMES. WHOLESALE POT STEALING.—DanieI Inkpin, an Old man, who looked in excellent case, was brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with stealing a pair of trousers, valued at 10s., and ten pint pots from as many publichouses in Bow and Stepney. The prisoner was detected by the shopman to a pawn broker and salesman in the Mile-end-road in the act of car rying away a pair of trousers exposed for sale at the door. The prisoner, on being taken into custody, said he intended to enter the shop and buy the trousers, and had mistaken his way. There was only a penny in his pocket. The 1 risoner, In defence, said--I should have paid for the trousers if they had given me time. Inspector Griffin, of the K division, said that 10 pewter pots were found upon the prisoner. The bottoms of eight of those pots had been cut out and rolled up, and the pots flattened, Two of the pots were not mutilated. The pri soner d opera ai t e i h o e n d s at at the B B a r d e i s An o h r a no a r p d, p i\ e pl a ai r lh e e d l ee t n- ohave aa et)eo about c i n o llallington, where he stole the trousers. m fi ß f ra ty :: : , ards from the shop of Mr. The prisoner said he was in want, and had applied for relief to the parish officers, who refused to do anything for him. He had a starving wife and family at home. Mr. Woolrych—l don't believe you. I am sure the parish otlicers would not refuse to rolieve a man sixty years of ago if he was in poverty. You are sentenced to three months' imprisonment and hard labour. SHIPPING-THIS DAY. LONDON, Dec. 6.—Wind this day at noon—South- Westerly; moderate breeze, and cloudy weather, with ruin.

TUTION. Thursday a meeting of this institution was held at its house, John-street, Adelphi—Thos. Chapman, Esq., F.R.S., V.P., in the chair. There were also present Sir Edward Perrott, Bart., V.P. ; Admiral Washington, F.R.S. ; Capt. A. P. Ryder, R.N., pri vate secretary to the First Lord of the Admiralty ; Admiral Gordon, Alexander Boetefour, Esq., Admi ral Bullock, Capt. Ward, R.N., inspector of lifeboats to the institution ; and Richard Lewis, Esq., the secretary. An interesting communication was read from the Hon. C. F. Adams, the American Minister at this Court, stating, in reference to the valuable services rendered by the Lytham and Southport lifeboats of the institution, in rescuing a few weeks ago th e crew of 18 men of the ship Annie E. Hooper, of Bal timore, United States, that he had been instructed by the President of the United States of America to present £lOO in his name to the National Life boat Institution, and £3l to the crews of the life boats in addition to the rewards, amounting to Lles 10s. previously granted to them by the society, The committee expressed their high appreciation of the munificence of President Lincoln in this case. A reward of £4 was given to the crew of the in stitution's lifeboat stationed at Padstow, for their laudable exertions in putting off and rescuing, under perilous circumstances, the crow of four men of the sloop Loftus, of Padstow, which, during very thick weather, was wrecked off that place on the 9th ult. The vessel could hardly be seen by the life boat's crew. However, they pushed on through the heavy fog. The life boat reached the vessel and took off her crew of four men, who were afterwards safely brought on shore. Mr. Shea, the officer of coast-guard, was on board the lifeboat on this as on many previous occasions, and has assisted in- her in saving 25 lives. With the special permission of the late Prince Consort, the Padstow lifeboat is called the Albert Edward, after the Prince of Wales, who is also the Duke of Corn wall. By a singular and happy coincidence, of which some of the Cornish men are particularly proud, the lifeboat was thus the means, under God, of saving four poor creatures from an inevitable death on the very day the Prince attained his majority—an aus picious omen, for deeds of mercy have " their vic tories no less renowned than war." A reward of £6 was also voted to the crew of the neighbouring lifeboat at Bude Haven, belonging to the society, for saving the crew of three men of the smack Mary Elizabeth, of Portleven, which, in a heavy sea on this coast, was found disabled on the 14th ult. In three-quarters of an hour she reached the wreck and took off the crew of two men and a boy. This was about a mile from the shore, oppo site a reach of sand called Widemouth Bay. _ I A reward of £4 10e. was also voted to the crew of the Kirkcudbright lifeboat, for putting off and sav ing the schooner Ellen, of Liverpool, which during some heavy weather had struck on Kirkcudbright bar on the 13th ult. A reward of £ll was also voted to the crew of the Teignmouth lifeboat of the institution for sav ing, during the gale of tho 18th ult., two out of three men belonging to the smack John of that place, which struck on the bar, the sea sweeping heavy rollers over her. It was stated that one of the institution's lifeboats stationed at Dundee Harbour had assisted in bring ing safely to port the schooner James Dowell, of Newcastle, which during a heavy squall became waterlogged on the night of the Ist ult. The silver medal of the society and £3 were voted to Thomas, master of the smack Paragon, of Har wich, and £lB to his crew of six men for their long and intrepid exertions extending over three days, in rescuing, during a gale of wind and thick wea ther, four out of six persons belonging to the 'schooner Thrifty, of Goole, which on Oct. 19 last foundered on the Longsand. Various other rewards were also voted for saving life from shipwrecks on different parts of the coast. During the past month the institution had sent two lifeboats to the coast—one to Tynemoutb, in Nor thumberland; and the other to Fleetwood, in Lanca shire. The cost of both boats had been severally pre sented to the institution by a benevolent lady and gentleman. It was reported that a contribution of £5 had been received from the late officers and crew of her Majesty's ship Alecto through Capt. H. J. Raby, R.N. Payments amounting to nearly £1,200 having made to various life-boat establishments, the pro ceedings terminated. SEN7IMEN2'S PET. (From Punch.) Come let us be merry and drink while wo may, More punch, Tom, and see that it's hotter, And hope going home we shan't meet on the way Sweet Sentiment's pet, the Garotter. At present proud London's a criminal don, We envy the home of the cotter, His fare and his couch may be humble, but then He don't apprehend the Garotter. We once sent such rascals across the broad sea, And prigs took to preaching and potter, And now not a decentish thoroughfare's free From the fruit of their bosh, the Garotter. A gentleman's walking, perchance with a crutch, He'll suddenly stagger and totter; Don't think that the gentleman's taken too much, He's unluckily met a Garotter. A lady beside yonder crossing you note, That rascal has chosen to " spot " her, One scream, but the next is suppressed in the throat Embraced by the brutal Garotter. There are but three ways to get out of his beat, Turn coachman, or tiler, or yachter, For no one who walks on her Majesty's street Is safe from the scoundrel Garotter. Mrs. Gamp, though a wretch, was by no means a fool, And " Live and let live was her mottor ;" But " I'll live and you shan't " is the rascally rule Of society's foe, the Garotter. Many ways are proposed to extinguish the pest, And punish the rutllanly plotter ; But this is the cheapest, and quickest, and best, And will finish the dastard Garotter. Just take a good cord, and divide her in nine, Let a skilled boson's mate rig and knot her : Then lay the sound lesson of "line upon lino" Into Sentiment's Pet, the Garotter." According to the Austrian "Naval Almanack," which has just been published, there are in the service of that Power :-16 Admirals (of whsm 11 are not on active service) ; 11 Post -Captains, and 25 Captains of Frigates. A total eclipse of the moon, partly visible i n Paris, will take place on the 6th. The moon will enter the penum bra at 41 minutes after 4 a.m. , the eclipse coranume. ing at 55 minutes after 5, a n d terminatin g at 44 minutes after 9. The planet will leave the penumbra at about 11 o'clock. ,ANE' - all all 190 all 1 5 3 28 191 19 i 30 29# SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. THE SURREY HUNT AND VOLUNTEER STEEPLECHASE S.—FRIDAY.

Half a mile from home, Quicksilver took a commanding lead, and won by half a dozen lengths ; Bandit defeated Clapham by two lengths. Nothing else passed the post. The rider of Maydew objected to the start, on the ground that the official starter had not acted, and Mr. Grant, the rider of Bandit, objected to the winner, not having been the bona fide property of a volunteer for the time required by the conditions.

TrrE LATE PRIZE FIG lIT.—A friend has commu nicated to us (Record) a letter which he has received from Sir Morton Peto, which shows that although the hon. Bart. does not usually interfere with the traffic on the Tilbury Railway, yet he deemed it necessary to call for an expla nation of the circumstances under which the qecial train was granted to the prize-fighters. Sir Morton also en closes the reply as follows :—" London, Tilbury;' and Southend Railway, Fenchurch-street, Dec. 1, 1862.-- My dear Sir Morton,—ln reply to your inquiry respecting th.? train for the prize-fight on Wednesday last, I beg to inform you that it was granted under the followingcircumstances. Finding by their application that they had fixed the en counter to come off at some spot down the line, and that the first train at 7.50 would be quite inadequate to take them, to say nothing of the great inconvenience they would be to the ordinary passengers, it was thought better to let them have a train to themselves at an early hour, when no ono would be annoyed by them. They agreed to go at 4.30 a.m., issued their own tickets, and made their own charge. We charged a certain sum for the train, whici2 if figured out would have come to the usual return ticket faro to the district they intended going to. I assure you it is far from our wish to have these people, but we cannot prevent their going by the regular trains, and have had so much trouble given by their doing so, that we thought it better to let them go by themselves, than that they should annoy the public.—Believe me &c.—(Signed) A. WIGIITMAJNo^ Sir M. Peto, Bart., M.P., kc. ELOPEMENT OT A WILTSHIRE CLERGYMAN.-- Much excitement has been caused throughout the county of Wilts during the last few days, in consequence of the sudden disappearance of a rev. gentleman well known: throughout the district in which he resides, and also by the• flight with him of a person living in the same neighbour hood. A village in the immediate vicinity of Swindon is the scene of the elopement. What renders the circumstance more painful than it otherwise would have been is the fact that the person whom the rev. gentleman has taken with hinx is a married woman, and prior to entering into the matrimo nial state she lived in the house of her rev. admires as lady's maid. We are not certain whether the rev. gentle man himself is married; but rumour states that he is. 11;4 said that before the elopement the rev. gentleman, whose friends move in high circles in Worcestershire, sold out at the Stock-Exchange, and that the proceeds realised seine WH lS KY. — Yesterday thousands of pounds, which the fugitives took with them. Wo believe the woman has several children.— Western Daily Press. Gwhisky above proof.
