From the evidence adduced it appeared that from information received by them, two officers of Excise called at the house of the defendant on the 15th of last month, and, having represented them selves to be officers, asked her if she had not some illicit spirits on her premises. She at once ac knowledged that she had some spirits, which she had purchased from a female as French brandy, and desired her servant to unlock the cupboard where it was. In this cupboard the officers found, in stone and glass bottles, five gallons of stuff s what resembling the colour of brandy, which they described as illicit spirit, 33.9 under proof, and which they took it on them to swear had not paid the duty. In cross-examination one of the officers admitted that he had made some inquiries of the defendant respecting her property; but both denied that they knew anything about the woman who. sold the p spirit, as they called it, to the defendant. They positively denied that they were aware that one of the women was the wife or daughter of a revenue officer. Mr. Solomon said he did not believe that a more impudent conspiracy than the present to fix on his client—a poor old lady 80 years of age—an offence for which she was liable to be mulcted in heavy penslties, could have been entered. into. The real facts of the case were these. His client, who at her advanced age was excessively weak and nervous, had actually been coerced to purchase the stuff, s sample of which had bean produced, and which the officers took on themslves to call "spirits," from two females for 50s. One of I the females from whom the purchase was made, ! he, Mr. Solomon, was informed by a police-sergeant was either the wife or daughter of an Excise officer, and that circumstance would account for the fact of the information that had reached the officers who had given evidence in the case, and the detection that followed. Under the circumstances, he should apply to his worship for a postponement of the case, to give the opportunity of bringing forward the two women i , i nestiou, as he understood they were to be found, anti properly exposing the con spiracy. - The clerk from the Inland-office could not see what could be gained by an adjournment. The fAct of the spirits being found on the premises of the defendant could not be denied, and the offence was therefore clearly established. Besides, be under stood it was a man, and not a woman, who had given the information, and the officers could have no interest in the matter, as they got no portion of the penalty. _ _ Mr. Solomon was very glad the law was altered in this particular. Before closing the case be should like his worship to hear the testimony of the defendant's servant. Eliza Fruin, the servant of the defendant, was here sworn, and deposed that two females had called three or four times on her mistress and pressed her to purchase some brandy, which they said they had brought from France ' • and on the Friday before the Monday on w hi c h the officers came they called the last time, when they said they had brought the brandy with them, and as they must not take it away, declared her mistress should have it at 10s. a gallon, and she paid them V. 10s. for it, Mr. Elliott felt bound to convict in the lowest penalty of 25/. ; and Mr. Solomon expressed bis determination of memorialising the Board of In land Revenue for a mitigation of the penalty. THAMES.—Hannah Withers, aged 13, was charged with stealing a silver watch value 3/. from Mrs. Petrie, matron of an institution for the maintenance and education of destitute girls at Barnet. The prisoner ran away, with two other girls, and pawned the watch in • the Commercial road East. The magistrate commented very severely on the conduct of pawnbrokers in receiving goods from children without making inquiries. Mrs. Petrie said the girl was disqualified for re admission into the institution at Barnet, and asked Mr. Selfe if he could send her to a reformatory. Mr. Selfe said his desk was full of applications for admission into reformatories, but he regretted to say there was not ono in the county of Middlesex. TILE LIBEL ON THE EMPEROR OF THE FRENCH. The Polish bookseller, named Stanislaus Thor zewski, who stands charged with publishing the pamphlet, Lettre au Parlement et a la Presse, in c!ting to the assassination of the Emperor of the French, was brought up yesterday at the Police court, Bow-street, before Mr. Jardine, for final examination and committal. The case appears to have excited considerable interest amongst the foreign refugees, the court being crowded with persons of that class. Mr. Bodkin, on the part of the Crown, intimated that at the close of the proceedings a correct trans lation of the entire pamphlet would be produced, in order that it should be added to the depositions. Mr. Leverson, the prisoner's attorney, said that one of the authors of the pamphlet, M. Talanclier, had expressly requested him to state that he (the author) had no desire to screen himself behind the mere seller, but was willing, and even desirous, to take his place as defendant in the case. He was now present for that purpose. Mr. Bodkin said tha any such application must be made to the Solicitor for the Treasury. Mr. Leverson then said that he hoped to be able to convince the magistrate that the case should end here, and that this was not a "scandalous and malicious libel." In inquiring what was a "false, inaliciou , ., scandalous, and seditious libel," a curio us diffi cu l ty arose, that nowhere could it be found that the law defined "what a libel is." It was said to be, and ought to be, a prin ciple of law, that no one should be condemned on ex post facto laws, yet that was constantly done by the judges, who, on the preteece of declaring the existing laws, really established new ones. It was said that this was not wri , ten law, but common law, which meant just what the judge chose to call law for the occasion. So long as common law con tinued to disgrace our jurisprudence its basis should be the consideration of what rule of conduct will promote the well-being of society. He said that the decisions on which the prosecution would pro bably rely were similar in character to the cases of witchcraft that disgraced our history. The learned but scarcely honest Lord Eilenborough had laid it down that whatever tended to wound the feeling 3 of the person referred to was a libel. Now, the best proof of the wound to a person's feelings was the circumstance that he took the trouble to prosecute, so that it amounted to this, that a libel was any thing that a person chose to think one. In Rex v. Cobbett, Lord E lenborough said : "It has been observed that it is the right of a British subject to exhibit the folly or imbecility of the members of the Government ; but if in so doing individual feelings are wounded, there the line of interdiction begins and the offence becomes the subj ec t of p ena l visitation." He was surprised that Punch was not prosecuted when he lately represented the Premier in an undignified position. In Rex v. Tuchiu, 3 Holt's Reports, 424, it was held—" If men are not to be called to account for possessing the people with an ill opinion of the Government, no Govern ment can exist." In Rex v. Watson, "an entry by a corporation on their books, that a person against ; whom damages for a malicious prosecution had been awarded, was actuated by public motives, was held to be a libel, and adverse reflections on the verdict passed by a jury wereheld to be libellous." At a time when there were many capital offences, and slavery was legal, it was held to be a libel to assert that the laws of the realm were contrary to the laws of God. In Rex v. Winterbottom it was held to be a libel to say that Pitt's National Debt juggleedidigne, not reduce the debt. In the case of Mr. .win. siry in Scotland, the following words were hell to be libellous :—" The time is now come when we are to assemble round the flag of liberty, to support a y w et ick fe e w d it In t is h t a ry t w an e d aare compliantplunged i r nt a o rlia a m w e a n r t. b , y persons would now doubt the truth Frenchof t Republic. These as applied to the war with the t occurred, and examples proved that the laww si man o was occurred,e tured by the judges for each occasion a and that it was in the same position as the law of witchcraft. Mr. Jardine—Suppose it is so, can I alter it ? Mr. Leverson—S - uppose a person were charged with witchcraft and brought before you, 'would you commit him MI shalldr. Jarine—When that case is brought before me know how to deal with it. This is not that ewe. Mr. Leverson said that magistrates would not usually commit unless they bad a probable belief that a jury would convict. Mr; Jardine--I think you misunderstand . d 4l 7 ti i position here. If all thatwp Dg law, it " 9 ' • LONDON, F.KIDAY EVIINING, MARCH 26, 1858. MONT BL ANC TO-NIGHT AT 8, and TO-UORROW AFTERNOON AT 3. CHRISTY'S MINSTRELS, Polygraphic Hall.

SW ANBOROUGH.--IMPORTANT TO THE THEATRICAL PROFESSION. This was an action brought by John Ricketts, a pantomimist and dance*, against Mr. Swanborougb, of the Strand Theatre, to recover a snm of money for salary, under the following circumstances. The plaintiffs case was that he had been engaged at the Lyceum Theatre as harlequin in the latepan tomime, and after his duties ceased there he had a second engagement at the Strand Theatre to dance in the ballet, at a salary of 255. a-week, which he was to receive every Saturday evening before he went on the stage, for the five nights, and give cre dit for that evening, so as to run on to the follow ing week. At the end of tire first week finding some difficulty in getting his money, in the absence of the manager, Mr. Swanborough, be told Mrs. Swanborough he should not play unless his wages were paid, but ultimately it was settled. In the second week he played in two pieces for the good of the theatre. On the Saturday there was another hitch about the money, there being no treasury, as was usual for the payment of the different per formers. Plaintiff again refused to go on, when de fendant sent for him, and told him that the cur tam should be raised, and that thou he would have the " pull" if plaintiff still refused. Mr. Swan borough came betore the audience and made a speech, informing them that it Was impossible to proceed with the ballet that night in consequence of the length of the other performances. Subse quently the plaintiffstepped forward and addressed the company, denying the truth of what they had j!ist beard, and stated that the fact was Mr. Swanburough had refused to pay for the perform ance. In defence it was pleaded that the plaintiff had not fulfilled his engagement, inasmuch as he had been paid for six nights, and consequently his next payment Was not due until the end of the week ; besides, he had infringed one of the special rules of the house, by addressing the audience without the permission of the manager, and had made a speech most prejudicial to the theatre. Mr. Wright was called for the plaintiff, and said the customwas to pay on Satu r d ay b etween 2 an d 3 o'clock for the five nights, l eav i ng the s i xt h i n the hands of the manager. The defendant said it was usual to hold the trea sury on Saturday evening, at the end of perform ances. He told the plaintiff that it was the last night of the season, requested him to go on and do his duty, and he should be paid, but he refused. The claim was therefore defended upon principle, be cause the plaintiff's misconduct had been a serious inconveni, nce, and if others had struck in the same way it would have been two o'clock on the Sunday morning before they could have got through the performances. Plaintiff—Did not Mr. -- strike one evening? Ddendant—No ; he was intoxicated, but he did not. strike. (Laughter.) The learned Judge, after hearing the evidence of Mr. Stammers as to the custom and practice of theatrical managers as to payment, said it appeared so him that the engagement was not completed, and the bargain made by the plaintiff not suffi ciently proved. In addition to these points the plaintiff had misconducted himself by coming for ward and addressing the company,' and therefore was not entitled to receive anything. Judgment for the defendant. with the said stick unlawfully assault and beat and oSf.2r violence towards Samuel George and William Holland, gamekeepers. Mr. Powell, for the defence, called prisoner's master, mistress, and three other people of the family, whe all swore distinctly and positively that prisoner went to bed at nine o'clock on the night in question, and rose at six next morning. One of the witnesses—the farmer's own son—slept with the prisoner, and declared it impossible that he could have gone out without his knowing it, as the bed was small, and they touched each other as they lay. This witness awoke at one o'clock in the night. The same witnesses also contradicted the identity of the dog, produced boots which they swore tke prisoner wore on the day in question, and declared that the marks on his arm, instead of being those of blows, were from pimples. Mr. Matthews, in reply, cast no doubt upon the evidence of the respectable people who had come to prove the alibi for their servant, but submitted that they had been mistaken, and that the prisoner had gone out and come home without their know ledge. The judge, in summing up, saidihat was an-ab surd possibility, and the jury must either acquit the prisoner or believe that all the family had come to perjure themselves. He summed up very strongly in the prisoner's favour. The jury, however, immediately returned a ver dict of guilty, which seemed to take every one by surprise. The judge, without comment, sentenced the pri soner to three years' penal servitude. NORTHERN CIRCUIT. —LivERPooL, March 25. CROWN COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Martin.) MYSTERIOUS CASE OF GARROTTE ROBBERY BY WOMEN. Mary Roach, aged 19, and Mary Routledge, aged 32, two athletic fish-sellers ' were indicted for assaulting and robbi ng Bridget, Judge, at Liver pool, on the 26th of Feb. last, of 25 sovereigns. Mr. Temple appeared for the prosecution ; and Mr. Scott defended the prisoners. On the evening in question the prosecutrix was going to make some small purchases, but while passing through Brick-street she was attacked by the two prisoners from behind. Her apron was thrown over her head and drawn tight, so that sho could make no noise. She was then knocked down, and after being severely beaten she was lett lying, in a state of insensibility, in the street. A police ofEser found her lying in this state, and had her re moved to her own house, which was close at baud. On recovering, the woman found that she had been robbed of 25 sovereigns, which she hal stitched up in her dress. The money bad been sewn up in her gown, but apparently whoever had stolen it must have known where it was concealed, for the exact piece of the dress had been torn away, Mrs. Judge, in examination, said she had saved the 25 Fovereigns out of her husband's earnings, although he was only a dock lab iurer, without regular employment. She also stated that no per son except her husband knew where the money was concealed, and how the prisoners obtained the information as to where it was, remained a mystery. There was no corroborative evidence as to the assault, but several witnesses were examined, and proved that Mrs. Judge was in possession of a con siderable sum of money. On the other hand, two witnesses were produced to prove an alibi, as Rout ledge was at home when the robbery was said to have been committed. The prosecutrix was subjected to a long cross examination with a view to elicit that before the robbery was committed she had: threatened to be revenged upon the prisoners for giving evidence against her cousin, but she denied it. The jury returned a verdict of p9t guilty "or both he prisoners. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—March 25. MANSION-HOUSE.—Charles Murray, the son of a baronet, was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having been drunk in the streets, and with having grossly misconducted himself. He had been, four months ago, sentenced in this court to imprisonment for three months on a charge of robbery. Policeman 534 said—About a quarter to 8 o'clock yesterday evening, as I was on duty in White chapel, I saw the prisoner, who was accompanied by a female, take off his coat, bat, and waistcoat, tear open his shirt and flannel waistcoat, and then run out into the middle of the road, cuing, "I am mad—l am mad !" I then saw him throw him self on the middle of the pavement, head foremost. He commenced knocking his head against the pave ment, and said he would kill himself. I went to 1 him to try and persuade him to put on his clothes and go home, but he refused to be guided by me, and said he would lie in the street until he should accomplish his death. I then got the assistance of three other officers, and succeeded in placing him in the station-house, where he immediately began to knock his head about with his usual severity. The Lord Mayor—What have you to say now, defendant ? The defendant—Why, my lord, I was going with a woman to see some friends of hers, and I met some friends and wanted to treat them, but she would not let me, and she threatened to leave me altogether if I per. evered. Well, I had a little drink on board, and what she said vexed and excited me, and I did act inconsistently. The Lord Mayor—You seem not to have been benefited by the severity of the correction you underwent here on a former occasion. The del, ndant—l have been very sober lately, my for f, I assure you, and if you will just look over this I shall take particular care of myself in future. The Lord Mayor--You say you have been sober lately : you could not help that. You have only just conte out of prison, after three months of compulsory abstinence. Tile defendant—l have been out of prison three weeks, my lord, and all that time I have been a, s sober as it was possible for a man to be in prison. The young woman who was with me can tell you all about me. She and I were going to visit some respectable friends in Petticoat lane. (Laughter.) They were her relations, not mine. The Lord Mayer —I have made the strictest in quiry into your character, and know everything about you, and I cannot help saying that you a,re one of the most incorrigible rogues that ever came before a magistrate. Tho defendant—No, my lord, not that, not that. The Lord Mayor—You, Oe son of a baronet, have had every possible kindness and attention be stowed upon you by your family. Hundreds and thousands have been fruitlessly expended upon you, and yet you seem determined to pursue your mad career. The defendant—You have heard their side of the questions, but your lordshipknows nothing of mine. The Lord Mayor—l know all. I have taken great pains to ascertain all the facts, and I find that you are a complete disgrace to your relations. You certainly ought to be sent to an asylum to be taken close care of for the rest of your life. The defendant—Look over this, and I will take care of myself, for I have now got a lodging out of town amongst most respectable people, and 1 shall drop bad company for the rest of my life. The Lord Mayor—What ! you going with a pros titute to Petticoat-lane I You likely to change your degrading habits? When you were apprehended it would have been an act of decency in you not to give the name of your family, which you have so cruelly disgraced. The defendant—What, my lord, give a false name 1 No, my lord, I can't tell a lie. The Lord Mayor—Not tell a lie, and actually going on a visit with a prostitute to Petticoat-lane. The defendant—She is a respectable young woman, and no prostitute. She has my money now. I had 141. when I came out of prison, and she has what is left. Here she is. A decent-looking young woman then got into the witness-box, and said she lived in Baldwin's gardens, and the defendant lived with her, and was a very good-natured young man, but unfortunately too fond of treating people. Of the 14/. which he had when he came out of prison no more than ss. or 6s. remain, and she said the rest was spent in the purchase of clothes and necessaries for both of them. _ The Lord Mayor—You must have lived well to have spent 141. in three weeks. I shall fine bim 20s. or send him to prison for 21 days ; and I can tell you, if you are a resreeiable person, that the sooner you leave such a fellow the better. The defendant—She is a respectable person, with a very good heart, and I can assure your lordship that she might meet a worse fellow than me. (Laughter.) The defendant was then removed, and was soon afterwards discharged upon payment of the penalty. LAMBETH.—Mts.

The prisoner, it appe.rs, is most respectably con nected: her family reside at St. Ives, in Hunting donshire. She was on a visit to the family of a friend at Brighton, and it appeared that on the 18th of March she went to the shop of Mr. Lewis, and atter looking at different articles she succeeded in secreting a gold watch, and left the shop without the theft being discovered. On the following day she went to the shop of Mr. Chellen, and there secreted a gold chain and was about to go away when the atticl- was missed, and the prisoner was given into custody, and upon a search being made the watch that had been stolen on the previous day was found in her possession. Mr. Justice Erle said lie would look at the de positions, and consider what sentence should be pronounced. Geoigiana Naldrett, 18, a good-looking young woman, was indicted for the wilful murder of her female illegitimate child.

It is said that disFulip is _ to be free , but to be decent. According to Et Olh Ww, what the judges please to blame irs indecent. hat is indecent ? Is it to blame the. ruler? Yon will not venture to say that. But is it grey .blame that is indecent ? Why the greaterblaine is to spy. that he is more unfit to govern. Then you will allow the leSser evil to be di scusse d and not the greater.' Mr. Leverson then proceeded to. contend. th•it nowhere in the pamphlet was there a direct incitement- to assassination ; and one of the passages quoted, and, he presumed, relied upon: by the Crown, was, "F r i en d s, we sa l ute you; if oar means are different, our c ause i s th e same." . That was by no means a direct exhortation to assassinate- anyone. It was not even abuse, unless they showed that he had been guilty of the offences charged to him, for his name was now - here mentioned, and the only reason why anyone could suppose it meant the- Emperor was, Lecause they knew that be had befit guilty of those crimes. Mr. Bodkin said there was a passage commencing _ "Did he not, as President of the Republic." -- , Mr. Jardine said it was reasonable to euppoit_ that it meant the Emperor. His course was clear; he must send the case before a jury. He was not going to punish ; he had, no such,pQwer. • - . ,- - Mr. Levi min said the onunittal wai . a 0141)41= merit. But he would ask, was it f)Oisilge that any jury --that any twelve men off the Treasury bend would convict the prisoner, exceßt of the printing and publishing only ? lic.:Levens t an,theu refer - red to the writings of "Junius," 'of . Lo rd Denman, . *1 - Mr. Disraeli, and of Mr. Gladstone, and to the letters of "An Englishman" in the Times, which, he said, advocated regicide, and inquired whether prosecutions would be instituted against the pub lislitrs of Lord Denman's works against Mr. DU mall, Mr. Gladstone, and the limes? or had Mr. WAter, the proprietor, of the Times, purchased - a shameful impunity at the cost of a base sub serviency ? In every Greek and Roman history the slayers of tyrants were extolled, and the niagietrates o'vn children might at that moment be reciting, with the glow of admiration ou their youthful countenances, such lines as those of Lord Den man's, commencing, " I wszath my sword," Arc. Mr. Leverson proceeded to recite several pieces of this description. He next asked the magistrate if be was prepared to risk the agitation which this committal would give rise to, and the riots that might follow I' / -_~-~ ~~-~'r r/ __~ Mr. Jardine—That argument is one which owl not be allowed at all. I have nothing to'do with the question whether the prosecution is a profiler one, and all those consequences to which you have referred .ought. not to enter Into .my 'considera tion. Mr. Leverson—They are part of the question whether a jury will convict. Mr. Jariine—Whether a jury will be ipfluenee — d by popular opinion is a question with which Thai() nothing to do. lam bJund to suppose 'that they will do their duty, and give their verdict according - to the facts proved in evidence, sud the law laid down by the judge. _ Mr. Leverson continued at some length to re state his principal arguments, and concluded by • reminding the magistrate that he was not only the servant of the Crown, but also the guardian of the " people's liberties, which could only be maintained by the utmost freedom of the press. Mr. Bodkin,—Sir, it is for those who instruct Mr. Leverson to consider whether his course is calculated to promote the interest of thedefendant ; but if any justification were wanted for the course taken by the Government in instituting this prose cution, it would be that a gentleman who is on the roll of attorneys of this country should stand up and defend the doctrines that are promulgated in this infamous pamphlet. Mr; Leverson, who has referred to some parts of the paniphlet, seems. to haue wholly forgotten what he ought not, that in some parts the writers refer to the late attempt AII the life of the Erni eror, and express their regret that they cannot claim a share in the honour. If that is not a direct incitement to murder, I do not. , know what the English or any other language means. There cannot be a dearer privilege than • the lit erty of the press, and I believe it is enjoyed in England to the utmost extent. No one wishes to • interfere with it, but when I see pamphlets directly inciting to murder, 1 - kw that they are abhorrent to the common teeth:woof every civilised nation, and peculiar abhorrent to the English. It cannot be the opinion of magistrates, juries, or any one else, whose opinion is worthy having, that such writers should be• allowed to shelter themselves behind thepretence of the liberty of the press. The learned counsel went on to say that Mr. Leverson's argument amounted to this, that the law was all wrong, and every decision that had beeu made was erroneous. And that was the sort of law on which it was attempted to convince the magistrate that he oughtmot to commit ! The law was not to be fritted or talked away in that manner. The only duty of the magistrate was to commit the prisoner, unless he could find Sureties for his appearance to take his trial. Mr. lieverson said he had not expressed any opinion whatever, as to whether assassination or tyrannicide was ju4ifiable. Mr. Jardine—l am perfectly aware of my posi tion, and I know that my opinion on any of the points raised by Mr. Leverson ought not to have, and would not have, any weight whatevei. - The only point I have to consider is , whether there is enough to satisfy me that a pri m a facie case is made out, and that there is reasonable ground toksuppOse that the ewe will end in conviction. I think there is, and I must order defendant to find half to answer the charge. Mr. Bodkin, referring to what had occurred at the last examination, said that when he a'ked where Mr. Mill was to be found, he did not intend toitt, ply any disrespect for that gentlemen, but he felt* doubt of the authority: The result showed that he • was right, for Mr. Leverson had no authority to use Mr. Mill's name. Mr. Leverson said he believed now that he had not the authority of Mr. Mill, but being carried away by his indignation at the refusal of the Crown to accept of the bail of the printer of the pamphlet, in whose veins flowed the Royal blood of Poland, and who was, moreover, a highly respectrkble tradesman, he was thrown off his guard, and made use of what he believed to be an authority from Mr. Mill—given in the course of conversation on :in occasion when he had derived great pleasure from Mr. Mill's company. Sureties were now in . attendance, the proper notice baving-been The sureties having been accepted, the rvcogni sauces were entered into and the defendantset at liberty. The translation of the pamplikt mentioned by Mr. Bodkin was afterwards attached to the depo sitions. BUILDING FRAIIDS.—At the Sussex assizes, held at Lewes on Wednesday, the case of a builder at Brighton, charged with defrauding the Conservative Land Society, was traversed to the next assizes owing to one of the counsel being called up to town. The prisoner had bees committed for trial by the Brighton magistrates oh Fri. day last. The prisoner had agreed to complete four houses in Ranelagh•teirace Brighten, for th e soc i ety. He wrote to say that two Of the houses were complete except papering. He reeeived 301., the last of the r fo e: o h su im rse e y x s ce r p e t xs l m o/ i . ne t d o b paide hotse and found the papering. that there was no pipe connecting th e water-oloset with The money society's du et the cistern, from which the water should have been laid on, and no soil pipe to either house. The deficiency was not apparent, being hidden by paper and plaster. About 10 feet of piping was wanting between the cistern sad the closet. There was. a piece of pipe visible from the out-ide, giving the appearance of the pipe having been fixed. A SAD REVERSE OF FORTIINE.—Some twelve or thir teen years ago an eminent Russian artist, named M. HalY netlel, arrived in this country, bringing with hies (or exhibition a magnificent painting, representing St. John the Baptist preaching in the Wilderness. This work, the labour of many years of incessant toil, was completed in Rome, where he resided for nearly a quarter of a century, and met with the admiration of the most ppily patronage and atten . t e i r o e u lj: failed for to eminent artists in he wasthat classic stran ( . 1 a him ger fame and fortune .
