The prisoner pleaded guilty, and begged for mercy on account of his wife and family. Mr. Tegg said that the frauds committed by the prisoner would not have been discovered had it not been for the vigilance of Mr. Winterburn, the clerk of the railway company's office. The prisoner was sentenced to three months' im prisonment with hard labour. Angelina Leary, Mary Smith, and Ellen Burns, three not rious and abandoned women , were chargedwith robbing Mr. F. Asberec , a gardener , living at C.n *ppenhana, of his purse, containig £3los. The prosecutor sai d that u p on arrivin g in town on the preceding day he proceeded to the Primrose public•house, in Primrose-street, where he sat down and smoked his pipe. He had not been long there before the prisoners entered, and asked him to Stand something to drink. He refused to do so, and presently one of the prisoners, he could not say which, put her hand in his pocket and stole his purse containing £3 108. He was not sober at the time. He immediately told Mr. Metcalf, jun., one of the proprietors of the house, he had been robbed. Mr. Metcalfstruggled with the pi isoners and attempted to stop them, but they escaped. They were shortly afterward s ca p tured. Mr. v A. with a friend, jun., said prosecutor entered the house he former being drunk, the Ni latter sober, and called for something to drink. Tim barmaid observing the state he was in, refused to supply him, and advised him to go hom. His friend then left thehouse. Witness saw the prisoner Leary put her hand into the prosecutor's pocket and take his purse. He immediately ran round to the side door, and observed her pass the purse to Smith, who put it in her bosom. A scuffle ensued; and the pri soners, who managed to release themselves from his hold, ran down Angel-alley. Knowing the danger of entering the alley alone, he obtained the assist ance of three policemen, when the prisoners were apprehended in the back yard of one of the houses. Constable 643. said he assisted in apprehending the prisoners. He found £1 Is. on Smith, but no purse. The prisoners denied all knowledge of the robbery. The Lord Mayor told Mr. Metcalf that the' bar maid had acted with great propriety in refusing to serve the prosecutor when he was drunk. His lord ship then sentenced the prisoners to three months' 'imprisonment with hard labour. John Hopkins, a ferocious looking fellow, 50 years old, was charged with breaking his wife's leg with a poker. Constable 568 said—Yesterday afternoon, from information I received, I went to St. Thomas Hos pital, and.saw the prisoner's wife, who had a broken leg. She at first said she broke it accidentally, and upon my saying that I did not believe her, she told me the prisoner had done it with a poker. She also said that he had been in the habit of ill•using her for years. The prisoner, who denied having used any vio lence to his wife, was remanded. Miss Johnstone who on a former occasion sought the interference of the Court to compel the judge of the Whitechapel County Court to hear and determine a plaint she had filed against a police magistrate for refusing to punish certain parties who had subjected her to annoyance in the street --being on the floor of the court when the judges entered, Lord Campbell said they had read her affidavit, and were of opinion that they could not interfere in the matter. Miss Johnstone--Under the wiry distressing cir cumstances, to whom, then, am Ito apply ? Lord Campbell---We cannot give you any ad. vice. Miss Johnstone—Here, my lord, is a newspaper in which I am held up to ridicule. Lord Campbell—l find you have applied t.o the Earl of Derby, the Home, Secretary, and other parties ; and if they have no power to interfere, we cannot assist you. Miss Johnstone—But they have the power; and if they do not use it, I shall be compelled to take some unpleasant steps. I thank your lordships for your attention, but I must now take the matter into my own hands. The applicant then left the court in an indignant mood. The Court was occupied during the remainder of the day with the case of the " Great Western Railway Company, v. the Midland Railway Com pany," which was a part-heard case in the special paper, raising certain questions upon an agreement entered into between the two companies, with re gard to joint "running powers" and the leasing of certain lines, &c. The Attorney. Generlil resumed his arguments on behalf of the Midland Railway Company, his ad dress extending over more than five hours. Mr. M. Smith had not concluded his reply on the other side when the Court rose. The case will be taken again on Monday next. ciety, inwhich Madame Rudersdorff, Miss Palmer Herr Moliqu,e Signor Radnegger , Mr. Thomas Mr. Palmer, and other artistes were taking part, and a large and fashionable audience were assem bled. The concert had proceeded for about half an hour, when smoke, which had &peculiar smell,was observed in the room. The committee of manage ment at first thought that it arose from the hot air apparatus, but an inspection showed them that fire was raging beneath the floor of the concert-room. The committee thereupon quickly distributed themselves throughout the room, and communicated that all was not right to the audience, and they rose and left the room as orderly as though the concert had con cluded. Indeed, Miss Palmer, who was singing at the time, afterwards remarked that uponlseeing the audience rise so calmly, she thought they were paying an act of courtesy to some distinguished person who had entered. Before, however, all had left the room, flames burst through the flooring. Fortunately, a number of men were at work at the time, and they and the attendants at the room im mediately tendered their services. Several gentle. men also assisted. A portion of the flooring was forced up, and a copious supply of water, passed from hand to hand in buckets, was poured upon the burning joists. The police, with the city hose and fire engines, were also speedily in attendance, and rendered. good service, and the fire was in less than an hour completly mastered. The greateA proof of coolness and good management on this occasion is tune A to be shown. In another room , Friend's tBl.nimeerican panorama was being exhibited at the would Lace been gaslight to about 1 °Clic people, and may be easily imagined what co "- nsternation and panic had v,,as adie:e•yov e f enereated amongst such an assembly er f ea been raised..

The prosecutor, a young man, who stated that he had' only been two months in London, was accosted by the prisoner yesterday in Finsbury with an in timation that he had some beautiful cigars to sell cheap. He accompanied him into a public-house, and then a watch, which the prisoner assured him 'was' silver, and a chain, described as gold, was offered him for £6 10s. Prosecutor expressed his doubt of the quality, and prisoner then solemnly swore to the truth of his assertion ; finally, the two were purchased for £l, prisoner saying he was glad to get rid of them at that price, as he was a smuggler just arrived from Boston, and had, on his passage, " cribbed" them from the captain. He then walked away, followed by the prosecutor, who, after being threatened by him for so doing, gave him into the custody of a policeman. 168 N produced a quantity of mock jewellery very well executed,. and -the watch and chain in question, which Mr. D'Eyneourt examined with surprise on learning that . the watch (an engine turned thick chronometer, and jewelled in eight holes) was worth only 6 5. , and the chain, neat and linked was only brass ; he t hen observed—" This really must be a very wonderful production ; why, it is going r Officer—Oh yes, sir, and goes well—that is fast, for it has gained three hours in the twelve since I have had it.

CLERKENWELL—John Williams and John Hawkins, two fashionably-attired young men, who stated that they lived in the Waterloo-bridge-road, were placed at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged with stealing a valuable gold watch from the person of Mrs. Elizabeth Nalder, the wife of Mr. James Nalder, under the following circum- On the motion of Mr. BRISTOW, the following resolution was agreed to : " That the General Purpops Committee be instructed to consider the requirements of the Board and its offices, and to order the architect to prepare the necessary plans for erecting the building on the site of Berkeley-house, in ac cordance with the terms of the agreement entered into be tween her Majesty's Conimissioners of Woods, Ste., and the Board, and that the committee report thereon an 4 submit the plans to this Board at the earliest possible period.". PROPOSED NEW MAIN THOROUGHFARE FROM THE EAST TO THE WEST OF THE METROPOLIS. Mr. WRIGHT rose for the purpose of calling the attention of the Board to the difficulty of construct ing the middle level sewer, unless in conjußction with the new line of street from Old•stect, St. Luke's, to Hart-street, Bloomsbury, a line strongly recommended by Mr. Marrable, the superintending architect, in a reportpresented by him to the Board ct on 12th Jan., 18 57 . Mr. Wright said the obje of the notice was to have the subject of the new street brought' under the consideration of the Main Drainage Committee for them to ascertain how far it might be desirable to carry out the new street in connection with the construction of the middle level main sewer. He was afraid that the time for doing so th is y ear was gone by,but still he con sidered it right to bring' the subject before the Board, and he would now ask their engineer how far it was desirable to carry on the middle level sewer in c onnection wih a new street from Hart street, Holborn, to Old t -street, St. Luke's. Mr. BAZALGETTE, the engineer, said difficulties would occur in this locality , but if the sewe r car ried on in connection with this line ofstr w ee as t, those difficulties, to a certain ext en t, wou ld be re moved, inasmuch - as the construction of the two works together would make a great difference in regard to the purchase of property. In answer to a question from Mr. Wright, ' Mr. MARRABLE, the superintendent architect, said the net cost of maki n g this line of street would be £026,908, but with the expense of paving, &c' added, the gross cost would be £771,000. The cost . of that part of the street required by the engineer — cos t t he x n ss, et o c B o 7 s 3 t . —would be £437,678, and the gros s I Mr. WRIGHT then moved that the Main Drainage Committee confer with the Works Committee, and that they present immediately a joint report upon this subject.

White, 96 S, deposed that at six that morning he was on the platform of the London and North- Western Railway, at Easton-square, -when he saw the prisoner rushing towards a man who was in the act of getting into a carriage, and seize him by the hair of the head, with the evident intention of cutting his throat with a knife which she had drawn from her pocket. Finding • that she was foiled in her sanguinary object she made a despe rate effort to cut her own throat, but was prevented by witness, who took „her into custody, brut not be fore she had, in a struggle, inflicted several wounds upon her hands. Witness produced the knife, the blade of which was between four and five inches long; there was blood upon. it. Mr. Lung—ls the man here ? Witness --He is not, sir. He went off by the train with the intention, as I understand, of goi ng to Australia. He and th e p risoner have been liv. jug together for some.weeks. Mr, Long (to the prisoner)—Thif3 is a most seri_ stances. It appeared that the prosecutrix was near Do Beauvoir•square, Kiiigsland, rather late in the afternoon, when the prisoner Williams asked her the way to the Holloway-road. She told him he Was going in the wrong direction, when the other prisoner, who was standing near, made some remark ; and after she had told them the way and was about leaving, she heard a snap, and then putting her hand under her cloak found her gold watch gone. She took hold of Williams and said, " You bad boy, you have taken my watch," when he indignantly asked her what she meant, and told her to let go of him. Both of the prisoners were attired in loose coats, and Williams having- broken away from her grasp, then ran oil', and some work ing men pursued them, and finding that the y were followed the watch was thrown away.

JULLIEN.-'M• JULLIEN IN A COURT OF LAW. Mrs. Staff, the plaintiff in this case, was a tent manufacturer in the neighbourhood of the Dover road, and she claimed to recover £5O Bs. for the hire of a tent which had been fitted up for the pub lic at the Royal Surrey . Gardens. The defendant paid £2O into court, and. denied his liability for any greater amount. Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Prentice appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. M. Chambers and Mr. Turner for the defendant. • The plaintiff's case was that in the summer of 1850 her son waited upon Madame Jullien in refer ence to a tent, which he told her would cost for him £5 or £6 a week. This was for a common tent ; but as the tent was wanted as a place for drinkincr champagne in, it was suggested that it should be supported by framework instead of by . ropes; that there should be a floor and sliding shutters; and that it should be decorated by having muslin cur tains and by being painted. The tent cost £lOO, whilst the one originally ordered would only have cost £BO. The tent was up six weeks. Some muslin curtains were blown away on the day of the banquet to the Guards, and they were replaced by some canvas curtains. The amount charged for the hire of the tent was £ 8 B s. a week , whi ch, for six weeks, would make the sum claimed • X3 E Cl v B i s ience was produced to make out the plaintiff's Q 3 L'ic, and to prove that the charge was reasonable, BIRTHS.
