THE MORTABA CASE. The following memorial has been presented to Lord Malmesbury by the Committee of the Pro testant Association : " 1. Your memorialists haVe heard with deep sorrow and regret that in the Roman States, Edgar Mortara, a child of Jewish parents, has been taken from his father's house in the city of Bologna, and:placed in the city of Rome with out his father's consent, for education in the Roman Catholic religion, on the ground of his having been baptised by a Roman Catholic servan t o f t h e f am il y . "2. Your memorialists strongly object to the principle that, the mere fact of a Jewish child having been baptised, with or without its own consent, or the consent of its parents, should entitle the cleigy, ministers, inquisitors, or other agents or officers of the Papacy to take such child away from parental control, believing, as they do, that such course is in direct vi o l a ti on no l ess o f na t ura l right than of the principles of civil and religious liberty. "3. Your memorialists also desire to express their con viction that there is no satisfactory evidence that the rite of baptism ever was actually performed over the child, and they indulge a hope that any intervention which can pro perly be called into exercise by her Majesty's Government will be exerted to procure the restoration of this child to his parents. "4. Your memorialists are aware that it may be con tended that her Majesty's Government has no strict right to interfere in matters relating to the laws or the internal administration of the affairs of a foreign country, and also that the present case having arisen in she Roman States may be considered as a still further complication of the affair. " 5. Your memorialists, nevertheless, very respectfully desire to remind your lordship that on former occasions the intervention of the Foreign -office has been exercised, and successfully exercised, in a friendly way to procure the libe ration of some who had been wrongfully imprisoned: " 6. In the year 1844 the case of Dr. Kalley occurred, who had been imprisoned for conscience sake by the Portu guese authorities at Madeira. A deputation waited on Lord Aberdeen, then Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and Dr. Kalley was restored to liberty. 'On this case your me morialists do not so much rely, because Dr. Kalley was a British subject. " 7. Two stronger and more remote cases have, however, occurred in reference to persons now British subjects; one the case of Dr. Achilli, who had been imprisoned in the Inquisition at Rome, and the other that of a man and his wife, named Madiai, who had b een imprisoned at Florence. " 8. In each of these latter cases the parties were fo reigners, there was a British Minister at Florence, and a consular agent at Rome. Strong s y m p a thy was expressed, both in the case of Dr. Achilli and that of the Madiai, in this country and elsewhere. Representations were made by philanthropic persons, the intervention of those whose high position in European diplomacy gave them great weight was called into exercise, and the liberation of Dr. Achilli from the Inquisition in Rome and the Madia from their im prisonment at Florence was accomplished: "9. Your memorialists therefore respectfully lay the matter before your lordship, and humbly pray that it may be considered in what manner the influence of the British Government, exercised so often with success in defence of civil and religious liberty and the rights of the oppressed, may be now exerted for the restoration of the child, Edgar Mortara, to his parents at Bologna, and that steps may be taken accordingly. " Signed on behalf of the committee, " JAMES LORD, Chairman. "Protestant Association, 31, Strand, Nov. 3." THE FORGERIES AT WIGAN. Wednesday being appointed for the third ap pearance of John Pollard before the magistrates, on charges of forging scrip to the amount of about £2,000, during the time he was secretary to t h e Wigan Benefit Building Society, the Public Hall was crowded with people anxious to h ear t h e pro ceedings. Mr. Hilton , solicitor, appear e d f or t h e prose cution, and Mr. Marshall def en d e d the prisoner. Mr. Ralph Leigh, sol icitor to the association, was in attendance. Mr. Hilton opened the case by stating that M r. Pollard had b een i n receipt of money belonging to the members of the Wigan Building Society, and when any of them wished to withdraw Mr. Pollard's duty was to inform the treasurer and draw the money. It f requent l y hap pened that cheques were given to Mr. Pollard to hand over to the parties who wished to withdraw. Mr. Hilton had no less than 24 such cases, but he thought it would only be ne cessary to g o i n t o one or two, in order to substant iate the cha rge . He would put in a document said to be s i gne d by a person named Hart, on which Mr. Pollard received £l3B. This receipt would be proved in evidence. When the affair broke out, Mr. Pollard gave up the key of the safe—the documents were fo un d, and the whole business was manifest. William Lea, of Chapel-lane, was then called and said he was a member of the Wigan Union Benefit Building So ciety, of which he was treasurer from its commence ment, six years and a half ago. Mr. Pollard was the secretary from the commencement. On the 27th October he went to Mr. Pollard's and inquired for him ; he was not there. Waited an hour. The safe belonging to the society was kept at his shop. It contained the books and papers of the society. Pollard kept the key. After waiting an hour wit ness assisted in removing the safe ; took it to the shop of Mr. Smith, president of the so ciety. The key was afterwards brought, and the safe opened. The key was brought by Mr. Mar. shall, solicitor. A partial examination of the con tents was made, and the safe was again locked, the key being given to Mr. Smith. In July last witness was called upon by Pollard about Thomas Hart withdrawing his three shares, amounting to £l3B, and he asked witness to sign the cheque, as Thomas Hart was going to call at his shop for it. The cheque was on Messrs. Woodcock's bank. The cheque was then produced and identified by the witness. Mr. Smith, president of the society, detailed an interview which he had with Pollard on the 28th October, when Pollard agreed to give obtained with some difficulty. The books were morning, which were up the books on the following scripre ceipt, purporting to be signed cards were found, marked 3examainnded3,oa2n, with vo a by Thomas Hart on the 7th July, 1858. Receipts of that description ought to b e k e pt b y th e secre tary, and it was his duty to produce them before the committee.—Thomas Hart was then called, and said he was a carder. Produced his three scrip cards for shares 300, 301, and 302; received them in 1852, when the club started, and has had them ever since. The notice and the receipt produced, signed Thomas Hart, were not in his handwriting, and ho never authorised any person to sign it for him. Had not received £l3B purporting to have ' been paid on that receipt. Th e scr ip ca rds wh i ch accompany the receipt had n ever b e en in his pos session, but the scrip cards which he produced wer e those which he at first rec e i ve d.—Mr. Hilton said this was the case for the prosecution.—Mr. Marshall said that the prisoner would reserve his defence. — The prisoner was then committed on this charge. THE LIVERPOOL CRINOLINE CASE. This case, which has caused much excitement in Liverpool, was again resumed on Wednesday at the police-court, which was densely crowded. The name of the defendant is Mr. John Huntingdon, corn and flour merchant ; and that of the com plainant Miss Hayes, 32, Rodney-street. A sum mary of the case appeared in our paper of Monday last, and to-day the governess, Miss Marsh and the complainant, were examined. Miss Marsh stated that on Saturday last she, in company with the two Misses Hayes, left Rodney street for the purpo se o f go i ng to the Princes Park, for a walk. They had proceeded as far as the Prim es-p . ark-road, when they observed the defen dant leaning against the wall. On their approach he came towards them, and when passing stooped down, took hold of Miss Mary Hayes' clothes in his right hand, and with the left, which contained a knife, commenced to cut the hoops of her crinoline, saying, " These hoops, these hoops, these hoops will cut." However, he was unsuccessful, as the hoops were made of steel, and he offered no further violence, but walked on, accompanied by a large black dog. On information being given to the police, detective Horne prooeecied to one: of the defendant's stores in Mill-street, and there saw a dog, which the governess identified as the one she noticed with the prisoner ; and on the prisoner being called in she also identified him, and he was consequently arrested. The defendant was identi fied by all the ladies, who swore most positively that he was the person who accosted them so roughly. For the defence, Mr. Deighton, barrister, put in en alibi, and called witnesses to show that Mr. Huntingdon could not be the person who committed the offence. As the case occupied the court until late in the evening, Mr. Mansfield reserved his decision until yesterday, when the proceedings were brought to a conclusion. For a long time before the time appointed for hearing the case the court was crowded by the elite of the town and neighbourhood. In giving his decision, Mr. Mansfield said that he had never known a case of such a nature being brought before the public, and it would be impos sible for him, when the vast amount of conflicting evidence was taken into consideration, to adjudicate upon the matter. The case, however, in itself was a strange one. The offence with which Mr. Hut tingdon was charged was of a trifling nature—there was no assault—there was no injury done—and, but for the alarm caused to the young ladies, the matter might be simply called a humorous freak. He regretted that lie felt unable to decide, and the case must go before a jury at the next sessions, but, of course, all that would be required of Mr. Huntingdon would be to enter into his own recog msances for £5O to appear when called upon. THE LORD RECTORSHIP OF GLASGOW UNIVER SITY.—Lord Gleneorse having withdrawn his name as a candidate for the Lord Rectorship of the University, the Independent Committee of Students have, we learn, brought forward Mr. Charles Dickens as a candidate. The election takes place on Monday, the candidates now in the field being, Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton (the present Lord Rector) ' the Earl of Slriftesbury, and Mr. Dickene.—Nortlt British ,Daily JUDICIAL STATISTICS. A blue-book of 140 pages, published since the prorogation of Parliament, contains a series of " Ju diciafStatisties" for the year 1857. These are in two parts, the first including "Police, Criminal Proceedings, and Prisons," and the second " Com mon Law, Equity, Civil and Canon Law." With the first part published in the book before us we have now to deal, in the form of a general, cursory, but we hope not uninteresting review. The returns are compiled in accordance with an order of her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State, by Mr. Samuel Redgrave, the " Criminal Registrar" so called. First, as regards the police, it appears, that the total establishment of paid police on the 29th Sept., 1857, was returned as comprising 19,187 officers and constables of all ranks—viz., 7,301 county constabulary, 5,251 borough police, 6,083 metropolitan police, and 552 city of London police. The total cost of this blue-coated force for the 12 months ended at the above date was no less than £1,265,579, in which sum the metropolitan police force figures for £442,212, and the city police for £43,945. It must be explained that, owing to cer tain circumstances and new arrangements, the above cost for the year will not bear any direct relation to the strength of the establishment, and will be much greater in next year's statement. The borough police is a charge upon the borough funds, aided by a rate when required. The county con stabulary and the metropolitan police are main tained by a police rate, and the city police is charged altogether (as is meet and proper) upon the fund s of the corporation. A proportion of the cost of the police, however, is voted by the House of Commons iri Committee of Supply. The tables appended to this return respecting the police refer to 57,273 offences committed, to 32,031 persons apprehended, and to 17,861 persons committed or bailed for trial. There is, however, a variance between the offences and the apprehensions, as several persons often par ticipate in one crime, and, on the other hand, many crimes are committed by the same person. Subject to these and other explanatory remarks from the pen of the intelligent reporter, the returns show that in the crimes against the person the number of persons apprehended equals and frequently exceeds the num ' ber of offences committed, while in attempts upon the dwelling, burglary, housebreaking, shopbreaking, &c. (including sacrilege, or church-breaking), by some according to the author of the " Guesses at Truth,"regarded as a less serious offence than house breaking, the apprehensions are 2,084 persons to 5,428 offences committed, and in robbery and at tempts to rob, 854 apprehensions to 1,029 offences committed. Summary conviction by justices has been much extended of late years, and a variety of petty offences are now thus dealt with. Last year 291,030 males and 78,203 females were prosecuted summarily, and of these 369,233 persons, 135,474 were discharged and 233,759 convicted by the justices : showing a proportion of 36.7 per cent, discharged by justices, as compared with 24.3 acquitted by juries. But in the latter case there is the preliminary inquiry before the justices and the rand jnry. Of these 233,759 male and female culprits, 101 were adjudged to impri sonment for above six months, 2,479 for more than three months and less than six, 8,604 to more than two months and less than three, 10,586 to mere than one month and less than two, 21,386 to 14 days and upwards (less than one month), and 19,137 to 14 days and under ; 768 were sent off to Refor matory schools, 143,463 were fined, 525 flagellated with the scourge or birch-rod, and 26,710 were sen tenced to other punishments, held to bail, or handed over to the military and naval authorities. The majority of these offences, remarks Mr. Re dgrave, represent the vices rather than the crimes of the population. The first offence in magnitude is assault, and it is disgraceful to the country that there should have been last year alone 2,584 ruffians —brutes in human form—dragged before the tribu nals for "a ggravated assaults on women and children." 12,750 persons assaulted peace officers, and 60,985 committed "common" assaults, as the law styles them. The ladies take a fair share of the assault and battery cases (15,323 against 60,706 men). Next ranks the national vice of drunkenness (our great cause of assaults) ; 75,859 persons, including 20,877 women, were charged with this bestial and degrading vice last year, but these numbers give but a faint and shadowy idea of the extent of this vice, as may be readily conceived. " Stealing and attempts to steal" is the next offence, with which 38,500 persons were charged in 1857; and next comes vagrancy, for which 32,008 persons were proceeded against. The number of offences against the police acts was 55,913, wilful damage and trespass figure for 13,583, offences against the Beer and Licensed Victuallers' Acts for 11,320, and, in spite of the remonstrances, warnings, and representations of the official conservators of the public health, 4,238 per sons violated the organic laws, and' sinned against their own bodies," as well as those of their co-citi zens, by committing offences against health. 8,771 prostitutes and 9,306 beggars. swell the return of " vagrants." Mr. Redgrave- quotes statistics to prove the general award of substantial justice under the Summary Procedure Act, e. g., in 1857 there were only 50 appeals from an increased number of such convictions, and of these 32 were quashed, 18 only being affirmed. In 1857 there were altogether 1 9 0,372 persons of the criminal, or " dangerous," class in the hands of the police, including 24,282 prostitutes, but what proportion this number bears to the whole class Mr. Redgrave at present is un able to determine. There was a decease of 2,064 inquests, or 9.4 per cent. on the previous year (1856). 333 deaths arose from excessive drinking. The total cost of the inquests, including all fees, expenses, and charges, was £61,541. So much for the first branch of the report. THE IRON AND COAL TRADES. The iron trade is in much the same position as it was at quarter day. The return of colliers and miners to their work at the drop, after a strike of sufficient duration to severely test their credit at the different provision shops, has ensured (with the coal and ironstone their masters get from a distance) a steady continuance of supply. The " first class" houses in the iron trade have orders in hand sufficiently abundant to keep all their mills and, forges fully employed for some time to come. The principal complaint is that the rate of wages and materials are too high, if considered as proportionable with the prices obtained for iron. That the latter might have ruled higher, and have borne a more equable relation to the cost of production, is acknowledged, but the trade acted wisely a few months ago in reducing mer chant iron 10s. per ton, which, undoubtedly, gave an impetus to the make, and the present position of the trade is mainly attributable to this line of ac tion ; and, with moderate production, no doubt the trade will, in the spring, resume its ordinarily healthy tone. The recent disasters of South Staf fordshire and East Worcestershire have proved useful to this extent, that some of the undersellers have been weeded out of the trade, and at the pre sent time there is not a great deal of that sort of thing going on. The demand for good pig iron has not slackened since our last report. Hot blast pigs are realising £3 12s. 6d. and £3 15s. per ton, and cold blast £4 ss. and £4 Is. 6d. per ton. There is not a very brisk demand for this latter kind of iron, it being considered too expensive for ordinary purposes, and is only used in particular in stances where parties can command good prices for the articles produced from it. The coal trade is daily increasing in briskness, and prices are well maintained. Some of the colliers and miners, we are very sorry to say, east of Dudley and at Cannock Chase, continue very disaffected, and, after going in at the drop, have given notice for a rise of wages. They have been stimulated to do this by a number of itinerant agitators who take delight in setting masters and men at variance. It will be of no avail, as the masters are determined not to yield to the present demands of the men, nor will they advance their wages at all until the trade becomes more remunerative than it is at present. Ironstone, the yield of the district, is in good re quest, and prices have an upward tendency.— Wol verhampton Chronicle. GALWAY, FRIDAY.—The Prince Albert has sailed with her Majesty's mails, 'a large cargo, and 310 passengors, for,Newfoundland and New York. BOUDOIR OPERA CHOIR,--The success that has attended the concerts given by the Boudoir Opera choir has been such that the managers have thought it desirable, after giving twenty performances at the Beaumont Institu tion, Mile-end, the Albion Hall, Dalston, and other places, to secure Crosby Hall, Bishopgate-street, for a limited period, for the purpose of giving a series of concerts of the most attractive nature. The first concert is announced for to-morrow evening, and the programme contains some of the choicest specimens of British and foreign musical com positions. It consists of selections from Verdi's opera, "I 1 Trovatore " Bishop's splendid trio and chorus, " The Chough and Crow," selections from the " Rose of Castille," and various other favourite morceaux. We cordially wish the promoters of the concerts every success in theft laud able enterprise. GOVERNMENT EMIGRATION.—The Government emigrant ship Grand Trianon, 1,049 tons, Captain Alfred Hayes, which sailed from South am p ton on April 12, in charge of Surgeon Superintendent W. H. Pcarse, with 69 married couples, 17 single men, 95 single women, 40 boys b e tween the ages of 1 and 12, 27 girls between the same ages, 5 male infants and 10 female, making a total of 402 souls, equal to 353} statute adults, arrived at Sydney, New South Wales, on Aug. 20. Five death and six births oc curred during the voyage. PROPOSED DOCKS AT BURNHAM.—Mr. Hawk shaw, C.E., is at present engaged in laying down a plan fur the formation of clocks and shipping places at Burnham, on the Somersetshire coast, opposite Cardiff. Vessels can run from one place to the other in a single tide, and to save the railway transit from Bristol to Burnham. This is so im prtant an item that a considerable trade is springing up there. Land has just been let for an entire new street, the esplanade is being widened ) and gas is being laid downs BANK _RETURNS.

MICHAEL, Acting Registrar of Bank Returns. - Inland Revenue Office, Nov. 6, 1858. THE SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH.—We have much pleasure in announcing that the direct communication be tween London and Paris was yesterday re-established. It is understood that the next Deputy-Governor of the Bank of England will be Mr. Alfred Latham, of the firm of Arbuthnot, Latham, and Co. The successor of 3tr :.. Sheffield Neave as Governor will be Mr. Bonamy Dobreei the present Deputy-Governor. The election takes place in April. FALSE LIGHTS.—A vessel called the James, bound from Newfoundland to Bristol, and thence to Cork, • with a cargo of fish, was abandoned on the night of Sunday, the 31st ult., under somewhat novel circumstances. Sho happened to be at the time off Youghal harbour, and it being All-Hallows Eve a number of lights were burning along the hills in honour of the festival. By these lights the master of the ship states that he was led astray, and he said his crew took to the boats and abandoned their charge. When they got ashore they were met by the people to whom they communicated the circumstance. Those parties immediately went off in the boats, found the ship, took charge of her and carried her safely into Youghal. Many complaints have from time to time been made of the practice of lighting fires on the hills around the coast, and it is one fraught with annoyance and danger to seamen. THE TEMPLE-GARDENS.—The fame which these gardens have acquired for the autumnal display of chry santhemums they offer to the gaze of the citizens of the metropolis is not likely to suffer by their present- appear ance. On the occasion of a recent visit, however, we could not but remark the difference of aspect presented by the two adjacent establishments known collectively to the public as the Temple-gardens, and belonging respectively to the Hon, Societies of the Middle and Inner Temple. The display at the garden of the Inner Temple, under the management of Mr. Broome, consisted of an extensiv e pl an t a ti on , i n w hi c h liberal treatmenti and pruned stems had resulted in the production of fine foliage and large handsome individual flowers, but as a whole scarcely sufficiently striking, and the various other plantations in the garden were even somewhat less attractive, having been, we under stand, planted late and being much injured by recent high winds and frosts, to which, from its larger size, this garden is the more exposed of the two. Some very well managed pot plants, trained to form a broad flat surface, have also suffered from the same causes. In the garden of the Middle Temple, from its more sheltered posi tion and less extent, a totally different aspect presented itself ; with no lack of fine individual blossoms, the gardener, Mr. Dale, had so managed his plants that the whole was one mass of flower. The outer borders were planted with taller kinds behind and dwarfer in front, the latter being so arranged that without distortion the foliage and blossoms were continued down to the surface of the ground, the whole forming a richly variegated bank of blossoms of all colours, such as the chrysanthemums alone could furnish. We were also much pleased with some dwarfed plants in beds ; in these, though a display of spring and early summer flowers had been provided, yet the beds were in most instances completely furnished, and even the branches rising from 1 foot to 11 or 2 feet in the centre, gradually decreasing to the sides, and the whole covered with blossoms in such a way as would delight the heart of a modern flower gardener. Some larger circular beds were rather taller in the centre, and were planted in sections of different colours, showing an even sur face of bloom which was highly effective. Mr. Dale deserves great praise for his successful adoption of this feature of arrangement, on which, with increased experi ence, he will doubtless improve another season. Among the arge flowered sorts Queen of England was properly supreme, and Cassy, Madame Poggi, Beauty, and Astrolobo were ' , conspicuous. The small or Pcnmone varieties, which were most attractive in the massed beds and mixed borders were argentium, a white which keeps for a long time ; Adonis, Drin Drin, a capital early flower ; Dr. Boisduval, Aurora Borealis, President Decaisne, Helene, Bob (rather later the foregoing, but promising to be fine), Cedo Nulli, and Pearl, th latter a light rosy lilac everywhere conspicu ous in the banks of mixed colours.—Gardener's Chronicle. A SCOTCH BAILIE ON THE BENCH.—In a town not many miles from the Clyde, where a batch of municipal authorities was elected last week, one of the new bellies presided the other day, for the first time, on the bench. One of the earliest cases brought before him was that of a servant g irl who sued her mi s t ress for her wages, which were refused on the ground that she had allowed a favourite squirrel to escape from its cage. The worthy magistrate, after hearing the parties, said, "that although the lass was maybe to blame for leaving the cage door open, yet the mistress was mair to blame than her, for she sud hao clippit the beast's wings, sae that it cudna flee awn' !" ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS.—At a meeting of the Council of the Royal College of Surgeons of England e held on Thursday last, November 11th, Mr. Green, th President, was elected as the representative of the College of the new Medical Act. The choic . was . in the Medical Council to be constituted under t d h e e provi sionsunani- o character, u s ly great p e r f c cat: attainments, n m natural ente, eventan unswerving n c e o s iFnngnmgittehg integrity high the gehf the much esteemed gentleman who was proposed on occasion. This election will excite strong feelings of sur prise amongst many thousands of the members of the Col lege, who firmly entertain the opinion, that the choice of a representative for the Medical Council rests with the whole body of the College, and cannot therefore be exercised exclusively by the Council. Acting on this view, a deputation of members waited on Mr. Brady, M.P., on Thursday morning, and requested that he would allow his name to be hoisted as that of the members' candidate. The hon. gentleman consented ; and in the even ing, when informed' that the council had made choic.3 of a s re h p o re ui s d en b t e a te tis s -e ted , heatdeclalwa,reiltdhtaht h that that eo would yd stando f the up to theheelection last moment possible in contending for what he beheved to e quitable mr.B e r la ad im y, o i f ii m m a s n el y4th bo o in us g an on ds o o o f f m be e t m h be e j ro us o t, f l t e h g e al c , oa d l eg e. their number, and having greatly assisted in promoting the success of the Medical Act, we believe that bis election. would be carried byan enormous majority of the voters. His possession of a seat in the House of Comm( nm would render his position in the Medical Council one of much weight and importance.—Lancet. ACADEMY OF SCIENCES.—At the last sitting M. Dumeril read a report on a pap e r lately presented to the Academy by M. Lespes, concerning the organs of hearing in insects. The reporter stated that hitherto naturalists had been of different opinions, not so much on the existence of the sense of hearing in insects, as on the region where the organs of that sense were situated. The majority of writers on entomology had, on a vague supposition, unsup ported by anatomical observation, expressed their belief that the antenna were the organs in question, but M. Lespes was the first who had endeavoured to th row light on the question by direct anatomical investigation. He had particularly turned his attention to certain Fallout and transparent points already observed by Erielson and Duges, and had succeeded, partly by dissection and partly by the aid of certain chymical dissolvents, in separating the minute leaves or plates which constitute the extremity of the antenna of a ccckchafer. These leaves, magnificd* under the microscope, were represented in the diagrams which accompanied his paper, and the report concludes with recommending the Academy to encourage M. Lespes to publish them. M. Castorani, who had some time ago sent in a paper on the diseases of the eye and the operations which they require, wrote to request permission to repeat some of his experiments before the committee appointed to examine his work. The letter was referred to the com mittee in question. M. Felouze communicated a letter from Reynoso, of Cuba, stating that the Government of that island had resolved neon encouraging the trade in a certain sil u i t e ai li ns tr B ta .3o7 2 ; w d a T te erY r, 6 a 2 13 . 111 2 1 0f iedd•sh powder without eith it ex co e ant there , and particularly useful as manure.
