CITY, Two O'CLOCK. Although the commercial engagements due to morrow, the 4th of the month, are not presumed to be of a very extensive, character, the necessary preparations are stimulating the inquiry for discount accommodation. The applications have become more numerous, but it is expected that the effect of the arrange ment will be _merely temporary. The brokers, however, have taken advantage of the opportunity thus presented for charging a small additional rate for the assistance required, and 21 per cent. is now the minimum at which even choice bills can be negotiated. The subject, however, which now attracts most attention in financial circles is the specie movement. The advices from Australia re ceived yesterday, show that upwards of a million and a quarter sterling is coming .forward from Vic toria ; but in the meantime gold is being with drawn from the Bank of England for transmission to the Continent, and the shipments on Eastern account are now on a more extensive scale than for some, time past. Under these circumstances a re duction in the rate of discount is considered impro bable, and some surprise is expressed that a change to 21 per cent. is still advocated in influential quarters, although the position of the Bank would not 'justify such a measure, and symptoms are already visible which threaten to affect the favour able aspect which monetary affairs have lately exhibited. The Indus, - which leaves Southampton to-morrow, the 4th inst., for India and China, will take out specie to the amount of £237,216, being a larger 811 . m than has been despatched for several months, 171 z., £42,380 in silver to Bombay , £15,000 ditto to Madras, and £1,270 in gold to Madras ; £39,400 ut silver to Calcutta, £96,206 ditto to Hong Kong, £47,960 ditto to Shanghai, and £4,000 in sovereigns to Alexandria. The Scotsman states that at the close of business on Monday, the liquidators of the Western Bank of Scotland had received £494,631 on account of the call of £lOO per share. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday presented a very dull appearance, and prices of all descrip tions declined Id. per lb. The Railway Share Mar ket closed with rather more firmness, and previous quotations were fully maintained. The English Stock Market opened this morning With a very heavy appearance, but it has since be come firmer, owing to a few purchases on specula tive account. In consequence of the necessary ar rangements for the liquidation of the account, Which will shortly take place, the market will, no doubt, be kept in rather a - variable state by the s Peeie movement, and the fluctuations in the ex changes. The speculators are consequently less e i ° ll fident, and appear extremely cautious. Consols h ave been 978 98 for money, 981 for the 10th inst., a nd 981 for December account. The present quotations, however, are 98 s, 981 I, and 98 1 1 re spectively. The New Three per Cents. have been dealt in at 961 t, and the Reduced Annuities at 96 1 t.

(Before the Master of the Rolls.) BOLDER°. V. THE EAST INDIA COMPANY-JUDGMENT. In this action it appeared that the plaintiff by his bill claimed to be refunded the excess of payments made by him to the annuity fund of the retired civil servants of the East India Company in the Presidency of Madras. The plaintiff was in the civil service of the East India Company, and subscribed to the fund for the relief of retiring servants of the company ; and he alleged that at the time he retired, taking into account his length of time of service and payments made by him to the fund in question, he had made over payments at the time he retired. He now called upon the directors of the company to refund to him the excess of payments made by him. The directors contended that by the regulations of the com pany the plaintiff was not entitled to repayment of any excess of money paid on account of the annuity fund. That the regulations of the company were for the management of the fund and government of the companies servants, and that there was no provision made'for such a demand as the plaintiff now makes. His Honour, the Master of the Rolls, this morning de livered a long and elaborate judgment in this case, and after adverting to the origin of the fund, and the scope and object of the subscribers and directors of the company in establishing the fund, his Honour came to the conclusion that the plaintiff had not made out his case, and he dis missed his bill with costs. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Sittings in Banco, before Lord Campbell, Mr. Justice Wightman, Mr. Justice Hill, and Mr. Justice Erle.) THE NEW JUDOS. Mr. Robinson, the Chief Master, this morning adminis tered the oath of supremacy and allegiance to Mr. Justice Hill, the judge appointed in the room of Mr. Justice Cole ridge. After the learned judge had taken the oath, Lord Campbell said ho was happy to say that the words n the oath of abjuration relative to James 11., the Preten ider, and his descendants, would no longer be admitted. DELtY OF BUSINESS IN COURT. Lord Campbell, having - aletl upon the gentlemen both within and without the bar, without receivingany response except mere matters of course, said he felt very much sur prised, after the intimation given by the court yesterday, that counsel should move an application for new trials as early as possible, and that the Court would take them the first thing this morning. Notwithstanding that intimation, he (Lord Campbell) had gone through the entire bar and could not find a single case in which counsel were prepared to move. The Court would not refuse to hear the applica tions later in the day, but he hoped for the future counsel would assist the Court in disposing of the business before then. The Court then proceeded to hear the arguments of Mr. J. Brown in a part-heard case of little interest. The delay in the Court arises from attornies not instruct ing counsel to move for new trials in sufficient time. COURT OF ERROR. Sir A. Cockburn, the Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas ; Mr. Baron Watson, Mr. Baron Channel', Mr. Justice Crompton, and Mr Justice Crowder, entered the Court of Exchequer this morning for the purpose of fixing the days on which courts of error will be held. The Lord Chief Justice, announced that the Court would meet on the 26th and 27th of Nov., to hear errors from the Court of Queen's Bench. On the 29th and 30th Nov,, from the Common Pleas; and on the Ist and 2d Dec., from the Court of Exchequer. THE LATE FRAUDS IN THE CITY.-IMPORTANT JUDGMENT. _ - Mr. Baron Watson delivered judgment in an important case arising out of the late city frauds by Paul and Maninl; who were poor-law collectors in the city of London, and had absconded with large sums of money which they had collected from the inhabitants. The poor-law autho rities had made a rate upon the parish of St. Stephen. Coleman-street, in order to make good the defacations, and the case went to the Court of Queen's Bench, who decided that the parish was liable. Mr. Waddington, of the dis sentient parishioners, brought it to the Court of Error, and judgment stood over from last session. Baron Watson said that Paul and Manini, the two col lectors, absconded with considerable amounts. They were appointed by the Poor-law Commissioners. Manini ab sconded in December, 1856, his defalcations amounting to £2,407. His sureties amounted to £5OO, but they were found to be utterly worthless. Paul also absconded, and his defalcations amounted to upwards of £2,000, and his sureties turned out also to be worthless. Upon this a new claim was made upon the parish of St. Stephen, Coleman-street, to the extent of £2,800, and a rate was made upon the parishioners for that amount. The opinion of the Court of Eiror was, that it was not lawful to make a poor rate for payment of a past debt. The question raised was whether the order.-s of the Poor-law Commis sioners lately made justified an alteration in the law. The members of the court thought it was never the intention of the Legislature to authorise the imposition of a rate under such circumstances, and were consequently of opinion that the decision of the Court of Queen's Bench affirming the liability of the parish to the rate must be re versed. A court of law was certainly not justi fied in 'departing from the present law, which had been acted upon since the time of Queen Elizabeth, and that it was the duty of the Legislature to provide a remedy, if a remedy were considered necessary. It was quite clear that a poor-rate could not levied in 1858 to pay a butcher's bill contracted in 1856, and the Court therefore decided that the parish of St. Stephen's, Coleman-street, were not bound to pay anything under the order. Tho judgment of the Court of Queen's Bench must be reversed, all the parties to pay their own costs. The Court then adjourned till Friday the 26th. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Before the Lord Chief Baron.) BEETLE V. BROWN. Mr. Hogging moved for a new trial in this case, which was tried at York and a verdict given for plaintiff, damages £5O. It appeared that the plaintiff had a quarrel with the defendant in his counting-house, and was requested to leave after ho had been called a scoundrel. He remained some time after, and then was forcibly put out. The defendant said he used no more force than was necessary, and that he never used the expression attributed to him. The action was not brought to recover damages for any cor poreal injury, but for the insult, and the ground of appli cation was that in consequence of certain observations of the learned judge who tried the case, the jury misconstrued the question, and returned a verdict for the plaintiff, with £.50 damages. These damages, it was thought, were ex cessive, and it was to reduce the amount given that the rule was now asked for. The Lord Chief Baron asked the learned counsel whether the defendant's counsel was in court, and on being informed that he was not, said he thought before the rule was granted he had better be seen, in order to ascertain whether some arrangements could not be come to, as he (the Lord Chief Baron) thought the damages were more than ought to have been given. In the event of no arrangement being come to the learned counsel could then have a rule nisi. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. (Before the Lord Chief Justice, and Justices Byles, Williams, and Crowder.) The court was occupied the whole of the morning in hearing the arguments for a new trial, in which the con struction of a certain clause in the charter of a ship to the Australian colonies was questioned. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Fonblanque.) IN ILE L. G. BON. This was an application for a certificate. The bankrupt had been an apothecary in St. George's-in-the-East. The balance-sheet, by Messrs. Butler and Cummings, showed debts and liabilities to the extent of £1,024; and the assets were—good debts, £402 ; property given up, £lB4 16s. The bankrupt had commenced with a capital in July, 1857, of £132. His Honour granted a certificate of the 2d class. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) IN RE LYONS. This bankrupt was described as of Brooke-street, Hol born, licensed victualler, and became, bankrupt on his own petition, and applied for his certificate. The case had been adjourned to give time for the bank rupt to assist in realising his estate, to the extent of £l5O beyond the expenses, £6O, however, had only been ob tained. His Honour considered that the intention of the Legis lature was, that there should be £l5O for the benefit of the creditors, and until that. was forthcoming he would not grant a certificate. He would therefore adjourn the meet ing sine die, with liberty for the plaintiff to apply hereafter, and would grant a limited protection. The question of costs to be reserved. PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Paris is about per mile discount, the short exchange on London is 2,5-05 per M. On comparing these rates with the Eng lish Mint price of £3 17s. 101 d per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is 4-10th per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 4251 per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13-5 per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is therefore about 1-10th per cent. dearer in Hamburg than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is about 110 per cent., which when compared with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the exchange is slightly in favour of England ; and, after making allowance for charges of trans port and difference of interest, the present rate leaves a small profit on the importation of gold from the United State% • [ADVERTISEMENT.]—O - UR MEDICAL LIBERTIES ! 1 !

BREAKING A MAN'S LEG.---John Brennan, a thick set, determined-looking fellow, was charged with violently assaulting Charles Stevens, and breaking his leg. Mr. George M'Lachlan, tailor, of 2, Albert-villas, South end, Kensington, said he was going through Piccadilly the previous night about ten o'clock, and when at the corner of Down-street he saw the prisoner trying to get away from the prosecutor, a cabman, without paying him. The cabman said, " Will somebody fetch a policeman ?" and he went one way for that purpose, and some one else another way. On returning, the cabman was lying on the ground, crying out, and the prisoner was detained by some of the bystanders. The prisoner put out his foot, and tried to throw him (witness) also. The cabman said his leg was broken, and seemed in very great pain, and was moaning. The prisoner heard the man say his leg was broken. Robinson, 48 C, said that hearing cries of "police" pro ceeding from Down-street, he went there, and found the prisoner detained by three or four persons, and was told he had broken the cabman's leg. He put the cabman in his own cab, and sent him to St. George's Hospital in the care of the bystanders, and took the prisoner into custody. The prisoper then became very violent, assaulted some of the persons who had detained him, and, while he (Robinson) was trying to restrain him, threw him with violence against some iron railings, greatly injuring his back, and had caused him to feel so unwell that he belieVa he should have to lay up. The prisoner had been drinking a little. He had made inquiries and ascertained that the prisoner was in the habit of frequenting public-houses, exhibiting feats of strength, striking his chsst, and saying ho was Ben Caunt. The prisoner said he had never been in the man's cab at all—it was some one else. He was passing by Down-street and the man ran after and seized him. The man's leg was hurt when they fell together. He had not done it. Mr. Deaden said ho should remand the prisoner till Wednesday, to see the result of the injuries inflicted on the cabman. Tho prisoner, who has a very ruffianly appearance, was then remanded. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, &yen o' Clock. WORCESTER RACES. (THIS DAY.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) HANDICAP PLATE OF £25.

SAVAGE ASSAULT UPON A SAILOR.--Jeremiah Comp ton, aged 20, a rough and unruly fellow, who has been frequently in custody for drunkenness and disorderly con duct, was brought before Mr. Selfe charged with assaulting Robert Hunter, a seamen. The complainant, a north countryman, said he left Ports mouth yesterday afternoon, and upon his arrival in Lon don, proceeded in a cab with a shipmate to Hoare's-wharf, Wapping, for the purpose of proceeding to Newcastle in a steamer. The cab had no sooner arrived at the wharf than the prisoner and others surrounded :it, and asked him to allow them to carry their'chests and luggage on board ship. He told them that he and his shipmate could carry their own luggage, and did not want their services. The pri soner then asked for a pot ()Meer, and on his refusal to give him any, said, " I must have twopence from each of you. He refused to comply with the demand, and the prisoner said, "Then d—n you, I will have it out of your skin," and struck him and knocked him down. While he was down the prisoner fell upon him, and hammered his head against the stones. He was severely injured, and in great pain. The prisoner—He employed me, and refused to pay me. Mr. Selfe—No, he did not. I mean to stop these outrages upon sailors, if possible. I fine you 405., and in default 14 days' imprisonment. The prisoner was committed to prison.

THE MARQUIS OF LOTHIAN'S ESTATES. —The farms on the estates of the Marquii of Lothian are under going a regular laud valuation as leases expire. Old tenants are expected to be prepared to offer an advance of rent proportionate to the land rents now current. The farming conditions remain much the same, but a greater strigency in smaller matters, such as getting fence wood from the plantations, &c., ix to be acted on, and this provokes un faymble rowarkg =met the toueztry, We learn from the report of the Registrar-Gene ral that the deaths from all causes registered in London in the week ending Saturday, October 30th, were 1,133, and they exhibit an increase, though it is not considerable, on those of the pre vious week. In the ten years 1848-57 the average number of deaths in the weeks corresponding with last week was 1,020 ; but as the deaths of last week occurred in a population which has increased, they can only be compared with the average when the latter has been raised proportionally to the increase, a correction by which it will become 1,122. Hence it appears that the rate of mortality now prevail ing is but slightly in excess of that which is de duced from former experience at the end of Oct. The Greenwich meteorology for the week shows that, though the mean temperature of the air fell considerably on the last two days, it was altoge ther neither higher nor lower than the average of a long series of corresponding weeks. If the mortality shown in the present return had been according to the rate which has been obtained `for the autumnal months in certain selected districts of England, the deaths would not have exceeded 770 ; and the actual excess, or 363, must be referred, as the result of a week, to those conditions of in salubrity that still exist in large town populations. Scarlatina has maintained a high mortality throughout October. The deaths from it last week were the same in number as those of the previous week, namely, 156 ; the corrected average of ten corresponding weeks is 77; and the only week within this series in which scarlatina was more fatal was that of 1848, when the deaths rose to 182. Last week it was fatal in 11 cases in Westminster, a like number in Marylebone, 16 in Pancras, 12 in Islington, 8 in Poplar, 9 in Newington, 11 in Lam beth. It may be added that no cases are recorded in the districts of St. George (Hanover-square), St. Martin-in-the-Fields ' St. James, Westminster, St. Giles, St. Luke, or London City. Mr. Goodhugh, the registrar of St. George the Martyr, Holborn, remarks that scarlatina has been very prevalent among children in his sub district lately, and the mortality has been higher than it was for some time previously. Last week he registered 19 deaths from all causes (nearly one to 1,000 of the population) ; and 17 of these were deaths of children, six of whom died of scarlatina It will be seen in the tables that five persons died from delirium tremens, and the deaths of six others are expressly referred to intemperance. The weekly average of deaths under these two heads is not so formidable—it is 3 ; and no cases occurred in the previous week. Last week the births of 909 boys and 871 girls, in all 1,780 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1848- 1857, the average number was 1,527. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 30.118 in. The mean daily reading was above 30in. on five days ; the highest reading was 30.45 in. on Satur day. The mean temperature of the week was 47.2 deg., which is the same as the average for the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The highest reading of the thermometer in the shade was 57.8 deg. on Monday ; the lowest 33 deg. on Saturday. The whole range of the week was there fore 24.8 deg. The mean daily range was 12.5 deg. The range on Sunday was only 5.2 deg. The dif ference between the mean dew-point temperature and air temperature was 3.9 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 88. The mean tempera ture of the water of the Thames was 55.3 deg., or 8 deg. higher than that of the air. The direction of the wind was almost :always north-east. The rain-fall was 0.24 in. COLLISION IN THE CHANNEL. PLYMOUTH, TUESDAY EVENING. The ship Palmyra, reported in The Sun of Satur day as being off this port with tallow and wool, from Sydney, put back to the Sound this afternoon damaged in her bows, having been in collision at seven o'clock on Monday evening off Portland. She was under single reefed topsail, fore-course, main course with a reef, spanker, jib, and maintopsail, steering north by east, the wind blowing strong from east by north. At the same moment the bark Ellen Morrison, Captain Irving, 373 tons register, was under double-reefed topsails, with whole courses, fore and main jib, foretopmast stay sail, and main staysail, lying to the east by south. It was the captain's watch, and the light on the bowsprit end having been blown out by the wind, the lantern was taken in, trimmed, an then exhi bited over the bows by the look-out man, who saw a strange sail, and called the captain, who went forward and said it was all right. The first stroke carried away the bark's bowsprit, and the second time the Palmyra's stem ran into the bark's starboard bow. Captain Irving ordered all hands on board the ship. While calling for the carpenter the vessel separated, and he hailed for a boat, but the weather was too boisterous and the night too dark to risk it. The bark, which belongs to Mr. Morrison, of South Shields, has a valuable cargo, consisting of 512 measurement tons of tea, and 50 cases of pre serves. Being ballasted with 200 t ons o f s hi ng l e, i t is feared she has gone down, especially as her cut water was carried away, and she -lead her anchor hanging to the stopper at the cathead, it having been knocked off the rail. There was on board Captain William Thomas Irving, of South Shields; Robert Gavie, carpenter, of Montrose ; and Henry Waldew, ordinary seaman, of London ; the mate and remainder of the crew are in the Plymouth Sailors' Home.

Post Office Directory of Westmoreland, Cumber land, Northumberland, and Durham. Kelly and Co., Boswell-court. 1 Messrs. Kelly and Co. have added another to their admirable county directories, which fully main tain the reputation they have gained by the clear ness of arrangement and correctness of information which distinguish the London Directory. The numbers to be chronicled in a county are certainly less formidable than in the metropolis, but, when we consider the scattered population, and various other difficulties to be encountered, we must award the compilers great credit for the exact, and yet comprehensive, manner in which they have per formed their task. To use their own words, " these directories give a topographical account of each town and village, also the names of all the resident nobility, clergy, landed proprietors, and of all en gaged in professional, agricultural, and manufac turing pursuits, arranged in alphabetical order, forming distinct directories of every town and village." The introductory information gives the statistics of the population, the numbers who have emigrated, the religious denominations, the num bers of the various trades and professions, the state of. education, &c., and the local peculiarities and notabilities of each town and village are mentioned in its directory. This volume completes the direc tories of the great northern counties, as those of Lancashire and Yorkshire preceded it. All persons engaged in extensive- business transactions should possess the series, which will be invaluable to them from the varied and accurate information they cobtain.

Sailed,—Lincoln, for Montevideo; Frederick Maria, for As may be supposed, the dreadful occurrence re corded in our columns yesterday, has thrown a gloom over the whole town of Bradford and its neigbourhood. It is the whole engrossing topic of discourse, and the most anxious inquiries are ad dressed from one person to the other in all direc tions. Unfortunately, the facts we have already given are not exaggerated. Indeed we have to record the death of two more persons who have been the victims of this melancholy accident, there being in some cases three or four persons lying dead in one house Hardaker, the vendor of the fatal lozenges, is himself so ill, that his life is despaired of, he having partaken of them. It is stated that Neale, the confectioner, and Hodgson, the druggist, are particular friends, and that God dard, the young man who has been the cause of the calamity, has only been in the employ of the latter a few weeks, having recently left school. On information being conveyed to the police station on Sunday morning of the sudden and unaccountable deaths of two children, the chief constable, Mr. Leveratt, caused the inquiries to be made which led to the discovery of poison being contained in the lozenges, as already detailed. In the mean time repert upon report of other deaths and increas ing sickness was given at the police-office, and surgeons were everywhere in request, some of whom at first felt inclined to think that the illness was cholera, but soon it was ascertained, especially by Mr. J. N. Terry, surgeon, who partook of a lozenge, that it was full of arsenic, and that loz.of themwas sufficient to cause the death of 12 persons. What antidotes could then be applied were in all such cases, where known in time, administered, and the deaths of many persons averted. At the same time, Mr. Leveratt ordered the night police, who were going on duty at nine o'clock, to give warning to all persons, in every street in their various beats, who might havel purchased any of the poisonous sweets, to give them to the police, or deliver them up at the police station. Thirty-six pounds of them were also found on the premises of the retail dealer, Hardaker. Mr. Levcratt also took the judicious precaution of sending two bellmen through all the strezts sf the town, from eleven till five o'clock, warning the inhabitants. A printer was also aroused at midnight, in order to print a placard cautioning the public, who might still possess such lozenges, against using them, and pointing out their already fatal effects. Thus every possible precaution to check the progress of the poison plague was put in operation. Among those already dead are two children of Mark Burrans, Jowett street, Buck-lane, aged two and six years; Joseph Scott, Railway-street, aged 14 ; Elizabeth Wright, Queen-street, aged 93 ; Joseph Crabtree, Jacob street, Manchester-road; three children, not named, at Heaton Syke ; Mark Green, Low Mark, aged 18 ; Isaac Shackleton, East Ardsley ; Jonathan Lupton Constantine, Tyersall, aged 69; Ann Schutt, Leeds-road, &e. _ Later accounts state that two persons have died at Cleckheaton, and that some from Halifax, who purchased the poisoned materials, are also ill ; and further accounts affirm that Mr. Henry Clarke, of Bradford, when going to Queenhow, near Thirsk, to see his parents, purchased a small quantity which he gave to them, and, after his return, he was immediately jammed that they had been taken dangerously ill. Besides the number now announced as dead, there are about eighty laid up ill, many of them dangerously so, but the names of whom we find it at present impossible to give with accuracy, scattered as they are through the borough and the surrounding district, as well as at a greater distance. ATTEMPTS TO UPSErRAILIFAY TRAINS. A returned convict, named William Ripley, a labourer, living, at Brightside, was charged at the Rotheram Court-house on Monday with attempting to overturn a railway train. On the 13th of October some of th e rails near the junction of the Blackburn Valley line with the Rotherham line were taken up for repair. The prisoner was em ployed on the line, and his duty was simply to look out for trains coming that way and exhibit a green caution signal. At half-past five o'clock on that day the work was completed, and the p r i soner was therefore no longer required to give the caution signals. The guager, who had the management of the plate-layers, sent the prisoner word that he need not attend at night to give the signals, but that he must be ready to resume his work as a labourer on . the following morning. It was sup posed that, in order to provide himself with some more watching, whi c h was eas y wor k, h e h a d gone up the line and laid an iron crowbar across it. The prisoner went to the pointsman's box, which was near the junction, about 20 minutes past six o'clock on thenight of the 13th, and was then told that he would not be required to give the signals any longer, and that he must resume his ordinary work on the following morning. He asked his informant (the pointsman) who had given that order, and on being told, he said he would light his lamp and go to look at the place where the repairs had beebe en made. He lighted his lamp and wont out immedi ately towards the place. At 6 . 26 a train from Shef field to Hasbro', and at 6 . 30 a train from Sheffield to Rotterdam passed over the place. On a future day it would be shown that ()they trains went over the place without the slightest impediment. An other train, shortly afterwards, from Sheffield to Dorchester, met with a severe impediment. The train was shaken violently, and on an examination it was found that a stout iron crow-bar had been laid across the line. The bar had been cut in two, and bent, and a pi ece of rail itself was broken. When he got back to the box, the pointsman asked him what he thought of the place, and he said, " Oh, it' s worse than it Ras last night." It would. be proved bef ore th e case was completed that the driver of one of the trains alluded to as having gone over the place without impediment said to his com rade on passing the place, "How nicely the train runs over this place." On being told of the affair afterwards, the prisoner denied having been near the place, and subsequently got out of the way to avoid apprehension. The case was adjourned. At the Uttoxeter petty sessions, on Thursday, before Lord Waterpark, Joseph Capewell, of Frods well, was charged with feloniously putting an iron railway chair on the rails of the North Stafford shire Railway, between Bromshall and Leigh sta tions, on the 22d ult., with intent to endanger the safety. of persons travelling thereon. It was proved by the driver of the express, which arrived at Ut toxeter at 8 p.m., that an obstruction was on the line, and he gave information at Bromshall station, which caused it to be removed before any damage was done, although a train was then due. The principal evidence against the prisoner was that he was seen near the line about the time the obstruc tion wa's discovered, and the boots he wore exactly correspontled with footmarks on the hill. He also admitted to Inspector Crisp, when taken into cus tody, and he did it to try if the engine would throw it off, as he had been told a man once put a piece of iron on the line, and the engine threw it four or five yards. Ho was 'committed for trial at the next assizes. But for the timely an d fo r tunat e discovery of the formidable obstacle, the conse quences might have been fearful. There is an em bankment and bridge at this part of the line several eet high. The i ron chair weighs 2511 g. MR. RRIGIiT. The tone and spirit of Mr. Bright's recent speeches have been condemned, not only by the press, but by persom of his own rank in life, owing, like himself, their position and influence to success in commercial pursuits. At a recent meeting at Barnsley, the Mayor of L eeds, Sir Peter Fairbairn, delivered an address, in which he alluded to the member for Birmingham in terms which ought to challenge that gentleman's most serious attention. Leeds is not a very unimportant part of the great manufacturing community of England, and the sentiments of one who is held in such high honour in that town cannot but com mand influence on their own account, even were not the speaker free from the slightest imputation of political bias. It is the deliberate opinion of Sir Peter Fair bairn, that " a more dangerous speech than that of Mr. Bright, on Wednesday last, at Birming ham, was never made before a community." The worthy knight has instinctively seizel upon the signal error of the speech, and of the views of public policy in which it originated. He says—and such a man, living . in such a place, and with such opportunities of judging, ought to be regarded as an authority—that "the object of Mr• Bright seemed to be to set class against class, the worst course .that any politician could possibly adopt." Moreover, Sir Peter Fairbairn has seen this in every speech which Mr. Bright has made during the last few years." Mr. Bright, accord ing to the' view of the impartial observer, has " directed his eloquence into a wrong channel. He has wished to set the working classes against the middle classes, and the middle classes against the aristocracy. That is one of the worst things to do in a community of Englishmen, who wish to be one family, and live together in brotherly love.' Sir Peter seems further to think that Mr. Bright deserves great praise for his exertions towards repeal of the corn laws, but that, his object once accomplished, his occupation thenceforth was gone. —Morning Chronicle.
