The court was opened this day at 11 o'clock, but the only case on the list for that hour was for a proof of debt, which was, however, adjourned by consent. There were several gentlemen of the long robe in waiting, but up to 12 o'clock his Honour, who was the only Commissioner, did not take his seat. At 11 o'clock, a learned counsel said that there was a case to be brought before the Court, but it was a trader debtor summons, which ought not to be eiscussed publicly, and he must therefore ask that the case should be heard in the private room. A solicitor said ho had no objection to any short delay, but he had an application to make, which he conceived could only be made before a Commissioner in open court, and he entertained strong doubts whether he could make it elsewhere. After waiting some time he retired. Arhe ease of the trader debtor summons was settled in a private room by counsel and parties concerned as a kind of pusoyito law. The door was open to see the performance, but no one allowed to bo within earshot, lest they should understand. This system of exclusiveness is becoming intolerable, and many cases of public interest are either completely lost or the statements are too vague to rely upon. BOW-STREET. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Kerr.) DANfAGES TO HIRED VEILICLES.-TUCKER V. ROSENTHALL, This was an action to recover £6 165., damages sustained in consequence of injuries to various vehicles hired by defendant of plaintiff. Mr. Beard, for the plaintiff, stated that his client was accustomed to lot out traps to wholesale houses, the hirers being responsible for all damages. On one occasion the horse fell down and broke a shaft, which cost 10s. 6d. re pairing. On another occasion the horse kicked in a panel, which cost 21s. The last item, £4 14s. 6d., arose in con sequence of defendant's having cut the panels of a trap for the purpose of putting on extra locks, and this necessitated new panels. Evidence was called in support of this statement, and two coachmakers said the repairs were necessary, and very low in price. Defendant's traveller said the charges were very excessive. The first item should be 3s. 6d., the second 10s., and the last Bs. In reference to the locks, they were put on in conse quence of some person having stolen goods from the trap. To prove the overcharge of the repairs, a person who represented himself to be a jobbing coachmaker was called, and said the damage done was only ss. His Honour's only difficulty was in regard to the last item. The repairs had not been done. Mr. Beard—The repairs must be done. His Honour—You get a new trap for an old one. If I give a verdict for £4 14s. 6d., with costs, that will be enough. HIGHWAY RonnEnv.—Joseph Berry, a well-known thief, was brought up on remand, charged with garrotting and robbing a gentleman named Hibdeu of his watch and breast pin, worth, together, about £3O. The prosecutor, in his evidence, stated that on the even ing of the robbery he went to the Ship public-house with the intention of temaining tliere for an omnibus to pass the door. As he was waiting a female came up and entered We conversation with him, and he eventually " treated" her. On leaving the bar the prisoner and another man followed him, and after strolling about a short time with the womananother public-home was entered, and as he was leaving that place he was seized round the throat by one man while the prisoner robbed him of his watch and breast pin. He became insensible from the injuries he re - ceived, and was found by the police insensible on the foot way. The public house last entered was the Southampton Arms, Tottenham-court-road, the slang name for which is " The Beans." The woman did all she could to protect the prosecutor, and called loudly for the police, but before any assistance arrived both men succeeded in effecting their escape. Sergeant Lambert, of the detective force, said, from the description given of the persons committing the robbery, he apprehended the prisoner in the neighbourhood of the Victoria Theatre, in the Waterloo-road ; but he had not succeeded in capturing the other man. When he took the prisoner into custody he denied all knowledge of the robbery, and said it was a mistake ; but when he was seen by the witness and prosecutor they at 011.3 identified him as one of the men with whom they had been drinking at " The Beans" Police-constable 165 E said, on the evening of the rob bery ho saw the prisoner, in company with another man, standing at th 3 corner of Warren-street, Tottenham-court road. He went up to them and told them as it was so late he could not allow them to stand talking in the street. One of the men walked away, but the prisoner, after pro ceeding a short distance, entered the Southampton Arms' public-house. Ho was certain the prisoner wee the man he spoke to near Warren-street on the night of the robbery. The prisoner was fully committed to Newgate for trial. STEALING A GOLD PIN.—A young girl named Lingard was charged with stealing a gold breast-pin, tho property of Mr. Foster, the Secretary to the Society of Arts. The housekeeper stated that in consequence of half a sovereign being missed a day or two ago, she questioned the prisoner, who was her domestic servant, as to whether she had seen the money. The prisoner replied she had net ; but -yesterday she commenced to spend some more money than usual, and this circumstance created a suspi- • cion. Her box was searched, in which the gold pin pro duced was found together with a quantity of postage stamps, a penknife, and two or three pawnbrokers' dupli cates; but, as the pin had only been found that morning, she was unable to say whether the duplicates referred to any property belonging to her. Mr. Foster said the pin produced was his property. He missed it a week or two ago, but in consequence of his losing it from his pocket nothing was said about it further than mentioning its loss. A day or two ago he missed half a sovereign from a letter, and he then told the housekeeper that search had better be made for the missing money. It was not, however, found ; but in looking for the money the housekeeper found the gold pin in the prisoner's box. The police-constable who took the prisoner into custody said the prisoner did not deny the robbery. She also said the postage stamps found in her box belonged to Mr. Foster, as she picked them up in his room. The prisoner was remanded in order to ascertain whether they articles pawned were her own property. TIIE SAME V. HARVEY. This was an action to recover £1 18s. 6d. under the fol.- lowing circumstances : Mr. Beard, for the plaititiff, said the amount now sought was for estimating the cost of building a vehicle in a certain style, the pattern of which was sent to Queen-street to see. A drawing was made. Plaintiff was called and said he was sent to view a car riage in Queen-street, and was told to make a drawing of the same. Mr. Buchanan said he laboured under the disadvantage of the absence of his client, who only disputed the prescat claim because he thought it an imposition. His client denied that he ordered a drawing. He would ask for an adjournment. Mr. Beard said defendant had availed himself of the drawing, to go somewhere else for a vehicle. His Honour—Then, he should pay. The case will be adjourned. Costs to be costs in the cause. Some discussion ensued in reference to a 'witness, and his Honour said he would not be a party to getting up dis cussions for the benefit of the newspapers. THE LAW OF READY-FURNISHED LODGINGS.—WINTER V. EDMONDS. This was an'action to recover £4 for four weeks' rent of a ready-furnished cottage, taken by defendant for the month. Mr. Buohanan—l amit, for the defendant, occupation; but we only occupied eight or nine days. A portion of the house was in such a disgusting state that my client and his family were obliged to quit. Plaintiff—l deny it. His Honour—lt is not a legal defence. You recollect the groat bag case overruled in a recent decision by the Court of Exchequer. Defendant must pay. Mr. Buchanan—Defendant will have his action for damages. Verdict for plaintiff. Mr. Townley, for plaintiff, applied for his coats, but as he had not given notice to the other side that plaintiff would appear by attorney (the amount being under £5), the costs were not allowed. THE HULL THEMTRE ROYAL BURNT DOTVN. It is with great regret we report the destruction, by fire, of the Theatre Royal of this town—the prin cipal theatre of the York circuit, and one of the most compact and handsome theatres in the provinces. It appears that about seven o'clock yes terday morning Mr. Francis was on the stage 9f the theatre, and was alarmed by seeing a quantity of smoke, and almost immediately the private room of Mr. Pritchard, the lessee, situated on the east side of the stage, was observed in flames. He imme diately raised an alarm, and assistance was soon at hand. The police hose and fire-engines were quickly on the spot. In the meantime, however, the flames spread rapidly en all sides, and it was evident that it would be a most difficult matter to check their progress. Unfortunately some delay was at first experienced in procuring a sufficient quantity of water, and the flames continued to rage furiously, and rapidly burnt up the scenery and ether stage effects ; and extending to the north part of the building, destroyed the boxes and galleries. In the end, notwithstanding that an ample supply of water was ultimately obtain e d, th e roof fell, and the building was completely gutt e d, leaving little more than the walls standi ng . It may be men tioned that special efforts h a d b een made for the production of a "specta cu l ar d rama ," which neces sitated the augmentation both of the general ward robe and that of the performers who had to take part in its representation, and we regret to state that nearly the wbele of those articles have been destroyed, which will be a serious loss both to the lessee and the members of the company. The only articles saved were a few which parties connected with the theatre were enabled to remove from the building. Considerable alarm was naturally felt 1 for the safety of the property adjoining the thea tre, but fortunately the exertions which were used prevented the flames from extending beyond the building itself. The theatre is insured, but not the wardrobe, which, we believe, would be worth about £4OO. This is the second fire which has occurred at the Theatre Royal within a few weeks, but on the previous occasion it was con fined to the wardrobe, and only trifling damage was done. The Theatre Royal was erected in Humber-street, in 1809, by the son of the late Mr. Tate Wilkinson, was opened in May, 1810, and was considered 'one of the finest theatres out of London. Tho receipts for the first 60 nights amounted to £3,150. Since its erection many actors who have become eminent in the profession have appeared on its boards. Latterly efforts have been made to dispose of it, but they were unsuc cessful, and it remained the property of the Wil kinson family. The building was insured to the extent of about £B,OOO. THE POPE'S ALLOCUTION. The following is the text of tho allocution of the Pope delivered at the Consistory of the 26th ult.:— I Tl: n hhei J sot u ok : sdt m hltyer y y: d esnn e sgl a a o r stnso ß is ng rt r rs e aa t tn h bhc r eea e yt n : d , Re w iahn i v t oae h pdneen heart euo f all u l dto g l msnu o u ila f c, grief, 'We cursed, you remember, each infidel thief ld And other domains of which we are th e owner. c , ae f d or , Their Present was sin, and their Future was sulphur. For they knew that we loved them most dearly, indeed, And 'twas only in love, if we shortened their lives, And sent Switzers to finish their babies and wives ; But they mocked at our gentleness, sweetness, and patience, And now the base demons have prigged the Legations. They turn out our spies, and they empty our g aols, (And of tortures therein tell indelicate tales,) Our mendicant monks they revile and abuse, And brutally bid them to wash and wear shoes ; And the Odour of Sanctity, martyrdom's wealth, They say is a case for their vile Board of Health. They publish most blasphemous books, too ; in one They dare to assort the earth goes round the sun; And as for our miracles, think how they hate 'em When they say Januarms's blood is pomatum, Consign Weeping Pictures to brokers or cupboard, And swear that no statue of saint over blubbered. The wretches, the monsters I But, brethren, we find Much comfort in bearing this fact in our mind, — The parties who've kicked us from out:each Legation Are only the folks who have had education : The low, and the dull, and the poor, and the mean, Are as fond of their Pope as they ever have been. And, now, my dear brethren, if cursing would do, We'd blaze at the beggars till all things were blue: But the ears of the wicked, to verbal attacks Are judicially bunged up with infidel wax, And the grim Garibaldi would prove contumacious, Though rose up to curse him the blest Athauasius. However, ono final appeal to the world, One curse on the flag by our subjects unfurled. We declare the Legations our own, and non delta . To mortal to alter the will of Saint Peter ; Atd we hereby denounce to the world, and all time, Each Romagnese act as a horrible ciime. Let the infidels, heretics, traitors, and knaves Have no peace in their lives and no rest in their graves : The dungeon and se iffold, the steel, or the rope, Shall teach them to wrong their affectionate Pope; Fire, famine, and slaughter consume them away, Till Beelzebub collars the last. Let us pray. —Punch. ThSemeeting of the 28th season will b e h e ld i n th e firsttc Eir) large hall this (Friday) evening at half-past 7 for 8 o'clock. PIGEON SHOOTING—ENGLAND V. AMERICA.— The match between Mr. King, of Indiana, and Mr. Frere, of Hampshire, was commenced at Newmarket yesterday. Mr. Frere killed 39 birds out of the first 50, whilst the American representative scored 42 birds out of his 50. The match will be resumed this day at half-past nine. Although Mr. King is described as " the American," he is English bred and born. He has lived in the 'United States for only twelve years. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. IMPUDENT ASSAULT ON A RESPECTABLE FEMALE. — Thomas Reid, a mechanic, was charged with the follow ing impudent assault on Mrs. Shury, the wife of Mr. Chas. Shury, of 16, St. Alban's-place, a licensed victualler, out of business. Mr. Shury said that about ten the previous night he left his wife, who was attired in mourning, at the corner of Charles-street, Oxford-street, for a minute, and on his re turn he found the prisoner behaving in a very rude manner towards his wife, pushing up against her in a very indecent manner. He pushed the prisoner away, and asked hint what he meant by such unmanly conduct, when he pulled off his coat and said he would " knock his (com plainant's) - head off." He continued his threats, and seeing a constable he gave him into custody. His wife was so unwell that she was unable to attend the court in consequence of prisoner's conduct. The constable said the man admitted knocking against the laiy, but said he took her for a prostitute. The prisoner said he had been drinking and in trying to avoid the female he knocked against her, and might have put his hand on her shoulder. Ho had no intention to in sult the female. Air. Bingham said he felt very certain that the accused had molested the lady, especially after he had admitted that he thought she was a prostitute. He would advise him to make a more discreet selection, and not take a decent female for a prostitute. He had better leave decent females alone. The prisoner, who is a brass finisher, of 2, Bond-street, Golden-square, was then fined £3. THAMES. DAMAGING A RAILWA.T WALL.—Edward Perryman, a boy about 13 years of ago, was brought before Mr. Yardley charged with damaging a wall alongside the Eastern Coun ties Railway, at Bromley. _ _ _ - - , William Burgess, a watchman in tho employ of the rail way company, said he saw the prisoner come over a wall into a field, and he then pushed the bricks out of the wall. Mr. Yardley—Pushed off the wall, I suppose ? Witness—Yes, sir ; ho did. Mr. Yardley—The wall must be very badly cemented for a boy like that to push them off the wall. Witness—The bricks are laid in mortar. The wall was put up 12 months ago. Mr. Yardley—Then the sooner it is pulled down and re built the better. It must be in a very rotten condition. Witness—Smaller boys than the prisoner, shove the bricks out of the wall. Mr. Yardley—Do they ? I hope your railway is in a better condition thaq tho wall. If it is not I should not like to travel upon it. The prisoner, in his defence, said that he saw some loose bricks on the top of the wall and pushed them off. Mr. Yardley—You had better keep away from the wall. The mother of the boy said the railway company's wall was in a very bad condition, indeed. Mr. Yardley—l think it must be. Take your boy homo and keep him from the wall in future. THIS DAY'S MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. To-day's market was very scantily supplied with Eng lish wheat coastwise and by land carriage. The attend. ante of both town and country millers was only moderate, yet the demand retied steady, and Monday's prices were well supported. Although over 18,000 quarters of foreign wheat have come fresh to hand, good and fine samples moved off steadily at full quotations. Inferior and damp parcels were neglected. We had a good consumptive demand for barley, at fully previous rates. The malt trade was very inactive; nevertheless prices were supported. Good sound oats realised previous quotations ; but other descriptions were a slow inquiry, and rather cheaper. Both beans and peas were dull; but the flour trade was in a healthy state. Floating cargoes of grain were firm in price. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK Wheat. Barley Malt. Oats Flour.

THE LATE CONSPIRACY IN TURA-Bre A letter from Constantinople, dated Oct. 5,-says: 7" The commission instituted for the purpose of inquiring into the facts connected with the con spiracy, and for the examination of the accused, has not yet published its report. Neither is the fate of the p r i soners k nown. A ny information the Go Government may be disposed to afford the public will, if accurate, add but little to what is already known. :11.Iinikters ha ve man if es t e d, unwisely r think, an. inclination to induce the belief that they regard the affair as of little moment, and one which had no extended ramifications. That the plot was ill-conceived, and still more badly conducted, is abundantly clear ; on the other hand, it is not to be denied that the circumstances connected with it have a certain significance. It is idle for the Go vernment journal to speak of the affair as one in which a few Kurds and Circassians were alone en gaged, and from which no danger was really in curred. An examination of the list, which the Government bas itself published, of the principal conspirators will at once show that the attempt was confined to no one particular body of men. The priesthool, if such the corps of the Ulemas may be termed, and the army, are alike fairly represented in that list, at the head of which figures the name of the best native officer in the Sultan's service. Hussein Pasha, the military Governor of Janina, arrived here in custody towards the end of last week. He has been several times subjected to exa mination, and it is said no doubt of his complicity can be entertained. He first came into notice during the late war with Russia, in the early part of which he was a colonel in the army of Arbistan. He it was who, in command of eight battalions of infan try, covered the flight towards Kars of the Turkish army, after the battle of Indj-dere. During that flight, for which the efforts of Hussein alone pro cured the more dignified name of a retreat, he was as conspicuous in the rear as the Commander-in- Chief (Zariff Mustafa Pasha) is said to have been in advance of the broken and utterly disorganised troops. For this distinguished service Hussein Bey was shortly afterwards made brigadier-general. During the siege of Kars his honesty, no less than his courage, placed him in strong contrast with most of the other superior officers of the Turkish army. He was there taken prisoner by the Russians, and returned to Constantinople at the end of the war. In the disastrous campaign in Montenegro, Hussein Pasha commanded the Turkish troops, but his repu tation appears to have suffered little from defeat. The misfortunes which there befell the army under his command are with justice attributed to the Com missioners sent by the Porte. These two function aries, in whom, of course, their Government reposed a degree of confidence proportionate to their inca pacity and ignorance, were invested with supremo authority. The opinions and remonstrances of the General were alike disregarded, and the conse quences were such as might have been expected to ensue. Whatever his guilf, the public will hear of any very severe visitation of Hussein Pacha's of fence with regret; for all, Christians and Mussul mans alike, know him to be a brave and honest man; they know, too, that of all the abuses with which the Turkish Government is chargeable, there is not one so crying as the administration of the army; and that to this fact alone his offence is to be attributed. _ The representatives of the Great Powers do not seem to view the conspiracy with the indifference which Turkish Ministers would fain assume. De termined on taking advantage of the occasion to express the wishes , of their several Governments with respect to the carrying out of long promised reforms, those representatives met and agreed on a 1 1 memorandum to bo presented to the Sultan. On further reflection, however, I believe it was con sidered that there were objections to this course, and it was ultimately decided to make a joint re presentation to the Grand Vizier. This document has, I am informed, been delivered to his highness, accompanied by a message from each of the am bassadors and Ministers who signed it. The main object to which it addresses itself is a radical re form of the system of finance, which, in its present state, goes far to render every other improvement useless. The importance of this step will be the best appreciated by those who have had opportu nities of observing the manner in which it has been the custom of Turkish Ministers to play off one ambassador against another. Formerly, the fact of the French ambassador having made a requisition was in itself sufficient to induce the English am bassador to exert his utmost influence to get it refused ;or vice versa. This, too, the result of no difference of national interests, but of ample personal jealousy. The 'arks are certainly clever in th.ir generation. They ever looked with dis favour on reform, and were content to loiter on the path, while two of its most renowed champions were contending for the honour of having driven them to the writ Now, however, things are altered. Until some of those who agreed to the memorandum in question act in bad faith towards the others, it cannot fail to produce a bene ficial effect. Now, at least, we shall see whether it has really been, as the Turks allege, foreign diplo macy that has stood in the way of reform ; or whether the interference of the Legations has been merely an excuse in the mouth of the Government. Affairs in Serv'a wear a very threatening aspect. The Skouptschina appe irs to be a mere instrument in the hands of Prince Miloqcb, who becomes from day to day more tyrannical. It is said th a t a ll th e exist ing constitutional guarantees a ga i ns t th e exerc i se o f despotic power have bccn formally annulled by that Assembly. Virtually they have bccn of no avail for some time past. Unless a revolution occurs at onco it will behove the Porte to interfere. What course the Turkish Government is likely to take I cannot ascertain. I think Ministers have themselves not yet decided on their line'of action. New difficulties are already arising in Monte negro. Notwithstanding the fact of the Frontier Commission having actually recommenced its opera tion. a Turkish guard has been attack( d, and seve ral soldiers were killed by the mountaineers. VOLU.NTEER CORPS. LONDON. At a meeting of the Council held at the Mansion house, the Lord Mayor in the chair, The LORD MAYOR announced that a list of mu nificent donations had been received, and among others from Lord Brougham, the Worshipful Com pany of Carpenters, the Secondary of London, and. others, his lordship stated he had just received 20 guineas from Mr. Benjamin Bond Cabbell, a mem ber of the council. The Lord Mayor read a letter from Mr. Alderman Rose, vice-president of the council, annon nein g that his proposal to the London and Brighton Railway Company had been agreed. to—namely, " To convey the members of this bri gade to and from the Crystal Palace, charging them 6d. first class, or 4d. second class for the double journey ; these tickets being only avail able for members of the corps when in uniform." Alderman Rose further stated that he had. received £lO 10s. from Mr. W. May, and also the promise of £lO 10s. from Messrs. Jackson and Co., and £lolos. from Mr. W. F. Moore. On the motion of Sir F. DOYLE, seconded by Mr. SOMES, M.P., the thanks of the meeting were pre sented to the Brighton Railway Company for their liberal arrangement, and also to Mr. Alderman Rose for his energetic exertions. The council proceeded to examine the various applications received for the office of adjutant. The testimonials were read. On the motion of the Lard Mayor elect, seconded by Mr. KENNARD, M.l'., Capt. C. F. Mackenzie was unanimously elected to that office. The LORD MAYOR stated the various arrange ments were nearly completed, and that the drill would take place at Guildhall as soon as it could be in readiness after the forthcoming banquet. Mr. W.

At a public meeting held in the Town-hall for the formation of a volunteer artillery company and rifle eorps, the Mayor presided, and from 70 to 100 persons were present. Among them we noti ce d Mr. Deedes, the member for East Kent, and Gen. Hay, the commander of the School of Musketry, and several gentlemen from the neighbourhood as well as from the town. Several previous meetings had been held, and it was now resolved that a volunteer artillery company and rifle corps for the town and neighbourhood should be established, and that as soon as 20 mem bers should be enrolled in the artillery company and 30 in the rifle corps their services should. be tendered through the Lord Warden to her Majesty. The rules (which had already been prepared by a committee) were read by the hon. secretary, Mr. Wilks, and determined upon, and nearly two-thirds of the required numbers enrolled themselves at the meeting. A subscription list was headed by Mr. Decries with £25, and soon amounted to £73.
