THE LATE FORGERY AT COUTTS' RE-EXAMINATION OF CAPT. RICHARDSON. MANSION-HOUSE. The examination of Mr. W. Pulsford (continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday)—After receiving the particular cheque for 10/. from Mr. Whitmore, witness gave, on 16th, the same cheque to Mr. Richardson. Had not seen the cheque since. The cheque was not altered in any way. The prisoner never stated to him to whom he had delivered the cheque. There was some talk about as to whom it was to be paid. Witness was at Mr. Bushe's office on Wednesday last, when Captain Richardson said he had delivered it to a person with thin mustaschios, rather sallow complexion, and thin stature. Witness thought the prisoner then stated that he had never seen the person before. Was not positive about that. Thought the prisoner said that the man called upon him at his private house, and he thought he said he delivered the cheque to him there. Never had had any conversation with the pri soner about it before any person. Cross-examined—The prisoner, witness believed, said that the person to whom he gave the cheque was Howell's messenger. Mr. Bushe here stated that Mr. Whitmore and Mr. Stephenson had not arrived from the country. Mr. Fry, the solicitor to the company, was then called, who stated that Mr. Whitmore and Mr. Stephenson were travelling, and he had done all in his power to find them, but had not accomplished that object. He believed that if time was given Mr. Whitmore would attend, and that no warrant was necessary to compel the attendance of either gentlemen. Cross-examined—Mr. Whitmore was in Calais, but he did not know where Stephenson was. Mr. Pulsford recalled and examined by the solicitor for the prisoner.—As a cautious man, he should say he had never seen the identical cheque for 5,000/. before. Mr. Baine, one of the solicitors of the company, was pres , mt at Mr. Bushe's office on Wednesday last, when the prisoner made a statement concerning a cheque for 5,000/., paid by Coutts and Co. The prisoner said he bad seen the cheque, and referred to a previous interview be had had with Coutts and Company with respect to the cheque. The solicitor for the prisoner objected to the exami nation, which was not pressed by. Mr. Bushe. Mr. Coulthurst, a partner in the house of Coutts and Co.—Recollected Capt. Richardson, in company with Mr. Fry, and Mr. Baine coining to the bank. A clerk of the company applied to witness, in the presence of the pri soner, to take away the paid vouchers, which witness re fused as irregular, as the account had not received the sanction of all parties. Witness said to the prisoner this is a frightful fraud; to which he answered, it was. He then said he had drawn the cheque (the 5,0001.) for 10L, and that it had been altered to 5,0001 ; that his signature was genuine, and that he believed the other two were also. He said that the number of the cheque was in his handwriting, and that all was except the figure one and the 5,000/. He said that be had given the cheque to some person in the em ploy of an individual on the Stock Exchange. Cross-examined—Was not aware whether the pri soner knew it was against the rule of Coutts and Co. to give up paid cheques. Joseph Longden, a clerk in the house of Coutts and Co., recollected the prisoner and others coming to the bank on Tuesday the 25th of August. The prisoner asked for the vouchers of the paid cheques, which were produced by Mr. Inglebach, a clerk in the house of Coutts and Co., but they were refused to be given up. Mr. Jerningham, a clerk in the issue department of the Bank of England, changed three 1,0001. notes on the 20th of July last. The person who presented them was the prisoner, and he gave the name of Jones, and addressed them Dublin. The prisoner was in his presence half an hour, and he had not the slightest doubt of his identity. Witness parti cularly recollected the transaction, as he had a suspicion that they would hear further about it, and in consequence made a particular memorandum in the book. Upon being pressed for a more particular address, he said Linen Hall, Dublin, and Furnival's Inn Hotel, London. He appeared much agitated, and upon being asked to put his name to the note, he appeared nervous, and asked others present to do it. Mr. Thomas Ager corroborated the evidence of the last witness. He was also a clerk in the issue depart ment of the Bank of England. Witness supplied the gold for the notes to the prisoner, who asked a porter to carry it for him to a cab outside the Bank. The prisoner then left the Bank, and wit ness followed him. Stated that he was sorry, but he must have the money back to reweigh it. The prisoner said it was all right, but ulti mately came back, the money was reweighed, and the prisoner went away with it. Had no doubt of the iden tity of the prisoner. Mr. Higman, chief clerk of the issue department, gave the same evidence he did on Saturday. He had no doubt the prisoner was the party who came to the Bank with the notes, and obtained the gold. Mr. Payne, an inspector of notes in the Bank of England, stated that the prisoner, on the 20th of July, applied to him for gold for the notes, stating that the commission for transmitting money to Dublin was so heavy, that he thought it better to take it over himself. Witness had no doubt of the prisoner's identity. Early, a porter of the Bank of England, recollected the prisoner coming to the Bank in July. He was going away in a cab, when he was called back, and afterwards he left in the cab, which was at the gate of the Bank for twenty miuutes. Leonard Dean, hall-porter of the Bank of England— Carried the gold to the cab, and he believed for the prisoner at the bar. Mr. Bushe said he had completed the first branch of his evidence, and he would now call evidence to show what occurred at the apprehension of the prisoner. James Dyme, 8,268, cab-driver of 262 patent safety cab—Was hired at the stand, Gray's Inn, to drive to the Bank. The prisoner looked like the gentleman who hired him. After reaching the Bank, he stopped about three-quarters of an hour, and received four or five bags of money, when the gentleman ordered him to drive to Furnival's Inn. Just as he was about to drive off, the porter came out, and after saying something to the prisoner, the money and he went inside, and ho (witness) waited ten minutes longer, when the gentleman and bags came out, and he drove to Furnival's Inn. He was going inside when the gentleman said, drive on, and he (cabman) went up Gray's Ina-lane, up John-street, towards Russell,quare, when the gentleman told him to go on to Montague-place, what number he did not know, but he (cabman) took out the bags, and laid them down in the passage of the house they stopped at. The house was half a ay up on the left-hand side. Cross-examined by Mr. Woolf—lle thought there was a gentleman in Court mere like " the fare" than the prisoner. The witness being asked to point out one person more like, pointed, amidst considerable laughter, to the secretary for the railway company, of which prisoner was the chairman. Mr. Ilewell, who had been extensively employed by railway companies, never did apply, by himself or messenger, for 101., and never received such. Mr. James Davies, a director of the company—Wit ness was present at a special meeting- of the board on the 21st day cf May, 1846, when the then supposed fraud was discovered. The chairman took the chair at a meeting held on the present day week (Aug. 25). The secretary read the minutes of last meeting, and the circular convening the one then held. The secretary produced the banke ' r's book. One of the directors, showing tho book to Mr. Richardson, asked him, " Do you know anything of this?" Ile said, " I do not. I think the first thing to ;se done is to see our bankers." Witness then said, " I think: we had better wait till Mr. Fry arrives." A conversation ensued, but witness could not remember the particulars. Certain resolutions were come to at the board. Mr. Pulsford (secretary), then produced the minute, , which did not appear of vital importance to the case. George Russell, 34 City Police, apprehended the pri soner on Saturday :last in St. Mildred's-court (the offices of Messrs. Bushe a., - id Mullins). He was searched, and six keys were fouuo' on him, five of which were now produced. He said, " Supposing that all the Bank clerks say is true, it is my own money ; I have the power, as chairman, to sign cheques." This was said in the justice-room. Cross-examined—He was at the house of the prisoner after he had been examined before Mr. Ald2rmau Mus grove. No violence was offered, as, with the exception of one cupboard, every place was opened with keys. Daniel Douglas, No. 13 City Police, went to No. 6, Charlotte street, Russell-square, accompanied by one or two more. Un proceeding to the house his authority was demanded by the persons there. He showed them it, and in one of the drawers he found a quantity of papers and a bag containing one hundred, and one fifty - , besides some Bank cf England notes. These were sent off in the cab. Witness remained in the house, and 'when Mr. Mullins came a further search was made, and a cupboard, of which no key could be found, was brokon open. John W. Murphy, clerk to Bushe and Mullins, went; with the last officer and assisted in the search. Found! two pocket-books in the long drawer of prisoner's study. Found a bag of gold in the same drawe.e. Found a bag of gold in one of th e d rawers o f t h e sama desk. Found four 101. notes and two Si. notes in the, same place. Saw both pocket-books inspected. Found another locked book in the same drawer. Witness having received these, returned to the office of Bushe and Mul lins in a cab, accompanied by the prisoner's butler. Richard Mullins, of Bushe and Mullins, proceeded to make a second search on the same evening. On forcing open the cupboard, he found the present cash-box, which was not made till the other evening. On last evening examined the cash-box, and found two packages, each_ containing fifty sovereigns. Mr. Bushe sworn, said that on examining the two poc kets he fnind in a small pocket-book four notes of 50/., now produced ; he also examined the other 'book and found one 10/.. and three 5!. notes. Atter opening the diary, he found between the leaves two 501. notes, and behind the cover, which was loose, he discovered money to a great amount. He found five Bank notes of 100/., six of 50/., four of 1004 ; in another parcel five of lOU, six of 50/. ; in another parcel six bank post bills of 100/. each, payable to John Powell, which made the whole value of property found in prisoner's house, 3,2251. He (Nlr. Mullins) would prove further that three 800/. notes had been obtained at the Ba nls, in exchange for gold, and the same amount in another bank. aoratio Nelson, stepson of the prisoner, and living at Kin. 5, Charlotte -street—He (witness) did not know any person in Montague-place, and was not there within the last twenty-four hours. After some conversation, the wit ness admitted that he had been in Montague-place, birt he entered into no house there. :Mr. Bushe then craved a remand to a future day, and requested that the property discovered should be placed i. u. safe custody. The case was then remanded till the 9th of September. LATEST PRICES OF SHARE S, IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM PANIES' STOCK.

ENFIELD PETTY SESSIONS. (Before Messrs. BDWAnD JONES WILLIAMS, jun., Chair man, EDWARD WILLIAMS, sen., and PRiSTON.) THE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY.—SamueI Mat. thews, a copperplate printer, was brought up in the cus tody of the police of the N division, charged with having obstructed the officers of the Eastern Counti es R a ilw a y Company in the execution of their duty, " in a case where a person's safety was concerned," as so expressed in the Company's Act. John Coley, a porter, at Ponder's end, in the ser vice of the Est tern Counties Raiiway Company. said, that the previous evening, about ten o'clock, the prisoner presented to him a ticket to go by the third-class car riage. Witness told him that by the next, which was the last train, there was no third-class carriages, and that he, having a day ticket, would be required to pay an additional threepence. The prisoner was in the act of jumping off the platform to cross the line, just as the train came up. Witness seeing that he would have lost his life, seized hold of his collar, upon which he was struck by the prisoner, and they both fell on the plat form. The prisoner was not sober. Mr. Williams, clerk at the booking•office, Ponder's end, gave similar evidence. Mr. Chadwick, who attended on the part of the board of the company, stated, that for the safety of the public, he was directed to press for a conviction. The prisoner was liable to a penalty of 51., or, in default, two months' imprisonment in the House of Correction, with hard labour ; but as he understood the prisoner had:a family dependent on him, he should not urge the full penalty. Mr. PRESTON said that when the lives of hundreds were put in jeopardy through the misconduct of an in dividual, he always inflicted the highest penalty al lowed by law when a case came before him. The prisoner, who admitted the assault, and who had been out with a few friends on a day's pleasure, was fined 20s. and 7s. costs, and in default w as to b e sent to the House of Correction for twenty-one days. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CLERKENWELL. DARING ROBBERY BY A FEDIALE.—Mary Gornzer, a young woman, was placed at the bar before Mr. Combe, charged by Miss Jane Parker, aged seventeen, residing in Brewer-street, Somers Town, with stealing a shawl. The prosecutrix deposed that on Monday afternoon last, she was walking quietly in Brewer-street, when the prisoner seized hold of 11 , r shawl and tore it from her shoulders, and ran off. She was subsequently ap prehended without the shawl. The prisoner boldly denied taking the shawl, but ad mitted having had a tussle with the prosecutrix, who called after her, saying " How did you like the month you got ?" in reference to her having been committed to prison for a month. Mr. COMBE inquired if the prisoner was known? Sergeant Archer, G—She is one of the most notorious characters in London. She is connected with a daring gang of female thieves. __ v Prisoner (sneeringly)—No, she is'nt, Mr. Ugly.—(A. laugh.) Archer (approaching her to take hold of her hand) — Why you know you are. Your Worship, she has got the five dots on her hand. Prisoner (clenching her fist)—Don't come near me, or you'll catch it. You've got dots all over your carcase. You're a nice man, I don't think.—(Laughter.) Mr. ComnE—The five dots were the marks for the " forty thieves," were they not ? Archer—Yes, your Worship, she is one of the gang. Prisoner—lndeed ! How wise you are. Why, she (prosecutrix) knows we fought together about a man. Miss Parker burst into tears, and denied this positively. The officer said he knew Miss Parker to be highly re spectable, living with her parents. Mr. COMBE—I shall remand the prisoner for a week. Prisoner (laughing)—Thank you ; I shall have a week's rest and my living. Sbe then skipped from the bar. THREAT TO MIIRDER.—John Catpole, was charged by James Jarvis, of No. 12, Fulwoods-rents, Holborn, with having threatened to mur' er him. The prosecutor deposed that on Friday night last he retired to rest after a hard day's work, and at two o'clock in the morning he was awoke out of his sleep by loud singing. " Awake, awake to glory," " A rose tree in full bearing," " Slumber my darling," and" Nix my dolly, pals," were given in succession. The rooms were merely separated by a thin partition, and witness knocked, begging of them to leave off and let him sleep. They did not desist, and witness threatened to call in the police, when defendant swore he would murder him. The defendant denied the charge. Mr. COMBE—Have you got any witness ? Defendant —Oh, yes ; this person (pointing at a diminutive man, attired in Polish costume, and with a tremendous cane). On mounting the witness-box he gave his name Mr. Samuel Waddington. On closer inspection of the dwarf like personage he was discovered to be the notorious Radical Waddington, who, some years since, rendered himself so conspicuous with 1)r. Watson. Thistlewood, and the Cato-street conspirators, and at Chartist meet ings. He gave his evidence with great self• sufficiency. The defendant was ordered to find bail to keep the peace. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of September 1.) SUGAR.—To-day West India Sugar was purchased re luctantly for all purposes, although the e were sellers n most cases 6d per cwt. under the rates of Friday, and the quantity sold by private contract did not exceed 170 hhds and tierces. At public sale 179 hhds 6 tierces of Barbadoes were chiefly disposed of. REFINED.—To-day there were sellers of Refined goods upon further reduced terms, still the home trade operated with caution; the value of brown lumps is 61s 6d to 62s 6d, and standard lumps 63s to 63s 6d. Bonded Crushed Sugar is not to be had on lower rates, hut there was not much business transacted ; first sort is worth 33s 6d to 34s per cwt. MAURITIUS.—This afternoon there was little passing pri vately in Mauritius, but 844 bags at auction sold at the full value, and brought 50s to 52s for fine yellow. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon four parcels of Bengal Sugars consisting of 3,297 bags, were brought to public sale, and, nearly the whole sold, but in some cases the rates taken. were rather under those previously current. MOLASSES.—The business transacted in all sorts of West India has been extremely limited, and prices must be re garded as nominal from 19s to 24s par cwt. The stock is still on the increase, especially of the low and middling sorts. In Bengal Treacle the operations are upon a more extended scale, and the parcels sold were at 21s 6d to 22s for good quality. Honey has further declined in value. FOItEIGN.—To- day 1,758 boxes of yellow Havannah, im ported by a foreign ship, were offered at public sale. and sold in consequence of merchants lowering their prices 6d per cwt. TEA.—There has been a brisker demand for the lower kind of Congou during the last few days, but better prices are not obtainable. Pouchong has met with a dull sale, and prices are looking down. In Green there has been little busi ness transacted, and if parcels were to be pressed for sale, a further decline in the value would be the result : the trade only purchasing sufficient for their immediate wants notwith standing the moderate rates at which there are sellers. Fine Scented Orange Pekoe has met with little attention, and is only worth 2s per lb. COFFEE.—This afternoon Ceylon Coffee was sparingly dealt in, and 1,953 bags 6 cases at auction were only in part sold, upon easier terms. Jamaica is little wanted, and 52 casks at public sale were nearly all bought in. RICE.—To-day Bengal Rice was much sought after, but further advanced rates being insisted upon checked business privately, and, the sound of 1,650 bags at public sale was taken in is to 2s above the value, that is to say, good bold new pearly white at 21s, low middling broken, and dusty, 19s, but sea damaged sold at 13s 6d to 17s 6d per cwt. SPias.—Cassia Lignea is little wanted, and the market being better supplied, prices are declining; there has been little business done F.rivately, but 100 chests at auction were sold. In black Pepper several purchases have been made pri vately in all descriptions, and some parties will not sell at previous rates. White has been purchased with caution, and 30 to 6d is the value of fine quality. Pimento has been in good request privately, and the supply being small, prices are firm. Nutmegs are little wanted, arrivals continuing to be large, prices are on the decline. Mace has been only in limited request, and prices aro not so firm, arrivals having been on a more extended scale. Cloves are not cheaper, but few transactions have taken place. Ginger is not much wanted, and having a fair supply, prices are lowering for East and West India. SPIRITS.—To-day the limited business transacted in East and West India Rum was at prices in favour of buyers; small parcels were sold at 2s 5d for proof Leewards, at Is I Id for Calcutta with certificate proof strength, and at 3s 6d to 4s for low to good Jamaica. INDIGO.—East India has been purchased with much caution by exporters and the home trade, although there are sellers rather under the rates of the last quarterly sale. Spanish is dull of sale, and cars be obtained upon rather lower terms. OILS.—A good demand has existed for Southern Oil, and importers baying supplied the market sparingly prices have ruled firm ; the parcels disposed of privately were chiefly for home consumption. There has been little desire evinced to operate in Cod Oil. Holders of Seal are unwilling to lower their prices, but there has been scarcely any demand from exporters since our last rep or t, an d the home trade have been cautious in their proceedings, taking only sufficient for their immediate wants. The quantity of Seal Oil on offer privately is however larger than it was. Holders of Sperm are not inclined to further reduce their prices, and supply the market less freely. There has been a good business trans acted in Palm privately, and notwithstanding the con tinued arrivals prices are firm. In Rape Seed Oil a good deal has been done. For Olive the demand has been active, principali,v from the home trade. Linseed Oil has been in good demand for home consumption, but there being an increased quinatity on offer, any material im provement in prices h as b een p reve nted from taking pl ace , and 24s per cwt are the rat e.s saccepted for parcels on the spot. The arrivals of Oils have not been of much moment since this day week. TALLow.--The demand has been. brisk for Russian on the spot, and a further advance in the value has occurred, not withstanding the continued arrivals. Importers show much firmness, and some will not sell at present rates, as the trade everywhere are scantily supplied. The transactions for for ward delivery have been to a la rge extent, and at improved rates. All kinds of Tallow have met with increased atten tion, and prices are rising.

On Monday afternoon the annual general meeting of the members of the above college was held in the rooms of the institution, Hanover-square. In the absence of the Earl of Clarendon, the chair was occupied by Ben jamin Bond Cabbell, Esq., and supported by the Earl of Antrim, Sir James Clarke, M.D., Colonel Wylde, Equerry to his Royal Highness Prince Albert ; Dr.llar nett, Professor Hoffer, Dr. Daniell, Dr. Aston Key, Dr. Bevan, Mr. Tite, &c. After some introductory remarks from the chairman, the report (the first presented to the members) was read ; its details, as might be ex pected, bore reference more particularly to the positive transactions of the institution than to matters of public interest connected with the chemical art. Since the establishment in 1844 the total receipts, including those for the purposes of the new building, amounted to 5,5564 195., and the disbursements to 4,5171. ss. 9d., thus leaving a balance of 1,033/. 3s. 3d. The sub scriptions, &c., amounted to 1,5711., and the donations to 2,693/. 3s. ; of the latter the sum of 100/. was re ceived from his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and a like amount was also forwarded by his Royal Highness as the representative of the Duchy of Cornwall. The donations to the building fund now amount to 1,763/., but more than 2,0001. will be required for carrying out the objeets in view. It appears that with regard to the laboratory, the total cost of the building will exceed the original estimate, and will amount to 5,0004 Mr. Blakemore, M.P. for Wells, offered to supply 500/, on fifteen other gentlemen subscribing 100/. each, and by this means the sum of 2,000/. was raised, under the de nomination of the Blakemore Fund, being, it appears, distinct from the general building fund. In the first year the number of students was twenty-six, and in the one just finished thirty-seven, fifteen having remained from the previous year. According to the statements of Professor Hoffer, the students had in each session exhi bited a considerable degree of proficiency. The fees paid by them amounted to 5271. 17s. The laboratory expenses amounted to 921/. 13s. This department will be fully opened in October next. We may add, that the new build ing at the rear of the house in Hanover-square is fast approaching to completion. It extends into Oxford street. The foundation-stone, our readers may recollect, was laid a short time since by his Royal Highness Prince Albert. The report added, that through the in• strumentality of his Royal Highness Prince Albert ne gotiations had been concluded with the Prussian Go vernment, by which, in the event of the college not succeeding, M. Hoffman will be permitted to continue his professorship at Bonn. The report having been agreed to, the meeting proceeded to the election of pre sident, vice presidents, and council. His Royal High ness Prince Albert was re-elected to the former post, which is not merely an honorary one, as the prince has an excellent knowledge of chemistry, and several times during the last session satisfied himself as to the pro ficiency of the students by interrogatories in the various departments of the art. 'The vice-presidents and council comprise upwards of fifty members of the nobility and gentry, &c., one of them being Lord John Russell. After votes of thanks to his Royal Highness Prince Albert, the chairman, &c., the meeting was dissolved. THE GREAT MEETING OF THE MONTH. As the great meeting of the passing month was a mighty convention of teetotalers, it may appropriately be called the " Meeting of the Waters." The repre sentatives of the pumps, well, ponds, cisterns, gutters, and rivers of the world were all present. Yankee tee totallers—cold damp people—arrived, it is said, packed up in Wenham Lake ice, to represent the Niagara ; while the Fleet-ditch rolled its tribute of temperance people to the Convention. All sorts of waters, indeed, had their delegates, except strong waters ; and the ap pearance of the august conclave reminded one of an Olympus of river gods turned out of their beds. The hall of meeting was surrounded by a guard of honour of metropolitan turncocks, while a strong de tachment of the " brigade," with hose in their hands and stockings on their feet, were in readiness to spout an eau de joie from several engines of great calibre. The . hall was tastefully d e co ra t e d w ith b ranc h es o f th e weep ing willow and the wat e r lily. Ab ove th e p res id ent ' s chair was placed the representation of a "jolly young waterman," in a saltatory attitude. After a light and frugal repast, consisting of water souchee and water-gruel, followed by a dessert of water melons and water-cresses, _ Mr. Wishy Washy, the chairman, and representative of the Holborn Baths, proposed the loyal and national toast of " Father Thames, and the various branches of the royal family." Drank with acclamation in toast and-water. Mr. Oozy, M.P. for Peerless Pool, next gave " The flower of transatlantic ladies, Miss Isippi and Miss Ouri." Judge Drench, of Repudiation Villa, Gouging Town, U.S., responded. After these festive proceedings, the Secretary was called upon to read the report—a very elaborate docu ment, on the statistics of How-came--you-Soishness. It appeared that within the last year upwards of 30,000,000 of" goes" had been called for and dispatched in London alone.— (G roans, and a cheer from a medical student, who was immediately turned out.) Beer was also tippled in an astounding manner. There were monsters in human form, such as stokers in steamers, workmen in glass-houses, &c., who actually consumed several pints per day.— (General shuddering.) The society had also ascertained that in many localities, particularly on the river banks, the manufacture of a pernicious compound, called " Shandy-gaff," was carried on with unblushing audacity.—(G roans.) The report] was unanimously adopted.—Almanack of the Month, for September. AMERICAN SLAVERY.—Extract of a letter, dated Richmond, July 25, 1845 :—" An unpleasant occurrence took place in this city yesterday. A man who has a number of hired negroes in his employment was proceeding for some slight offence to punish one of them by whipping, when the poor wretch, knowing his master's unmerciful nature, im plored that he might be hung at once instead of whipped. This of course would not answer, and after tying the negro's hands behind him in the usual manner, the employer went into another room to procure his cowhide, when the negro taking advantage of his absence rushed from the room, jumped into the river, and was drowned.",,lmerican paper. WESTMINSTER. UNFOUNDED CHARGE OF FELONY.—John Morris, a very respectable-looking young man, was placed at the bar before Mr. Burrell, upon the following unfounded charge of felony:— Mr. Win. Booth, a painter, &c., at 26, Crown-row, Mile End-road, stated that the prisoner had been in his employment as a journeyman for the last three or four months. He ;had suspected him frequently of having more materials than he wanted for his jobs, and con verting them to his own use, and in consequence of this he discharged him three weeks ago, but then had no thing more than suspicion against him. Prisoner had then been to work at Mr. Moore's, at Brompton, for five or six weeks, at which job he had had two dusting brushes of his (prosecutor's) from him. One of these he had put in varnish, the other was used as a dusting brush. After prisoner's discharge, he brought away his tools from the job, and a dusting brush in his basket, but whether the brush was his (prosecutor's) he could not say, as he had since ascertained that prisoner's brother; who was a very respectable man, and whose word he (prosecutor) could take, had lent him a dusting brush whilst at the job. One of the dusting brushes given to the prisoner was missing, but it might have been that prisoner had lost his (prosecutor's) and had then got his brother to lend him oue. Mr. Taylor, the chief clerk, inquired whether that was the only charge the prosecutor had against the pri soner? Prosecutor replied that was the only one. Mr. BURRELL observed that there was not the shadow of a case made out. There was no groand whatever for the charge against the prisoner, and he should so mark the police sheet. The accused complained of the treatment he had re ceived. As he was leaving the felon's dock, Mr. BonnELL observed—You may refer to me when ever you please, and I will state the facts as far as I know them. The young man bowed to the worthy Magistrate and withdrew. WORSHIP-STREET. SHAMEFUL ASSAULT UPON A GIRL.—A person dressed in gentlemanly style, who gave his name Charles John. son, but who was stated to be a wealthy carcase butcher named William Chambers, was placed at the bar before Mr. Brougnton, upon a charge of indecently assaulting a girl thirteen years of age, named Maria Harris. From the statement of the girl it appeared that, having been sent on an errand on Monday evening, she lost 6d. near Hoxton Church, and was looking fur it and crying, when the prisoner came up and inquired the cause of her distress, and then told her that if she would come with him he would give her 64. She accordingly walked with him until they came to the distant part of Hoxton, when he took hold of her arm, and, having led her into a field, gave her 6d., and proceeded to assault her in the way she described. She, upon discovering his inten tions, resi s ted, an d cried " Murder," and the policeman took the prisoner into custody. M'Cole, 53 N, said be saw the gentleman walking with the gi r l i n a way that excited his suspicion, and followed him to the field. What the defendant was saying to the girl he could not distinctly hear ; but he heard the girl say, " I won't ;" and hearing her cry out presently afterwards, he hastened to the spot, where he found the defendant with disordered dress, and in a situation of unequivocal indecency, and reproached him with such conduct towards a mere child. The defend ant did not say a word in reply, and was taken to the station- house. The prisoner now said, that he had been drinking freely with some friends, and on his way was accosted by several loose females ; and, when he saw the girl, he thought she was one of the same class ; therefore went with her, but did not offer or intend any violence. The policeman said he did not appear at all intoxi cated. Mr. BROUGHTON said he should commit him for trial for misdemeanour, but remanded him on bail for the present. SOUTHWARK. ROBBERY BY WORKMEN.-- Jacobs and John Palmer were brought up for re-examination, charged with robbing Messrs. Jones and Letts, coalmerchants, of Bankside, of a quantity of oats ; and Wet. Simpson, a town carman, was charged with receiving the pro perty, knowing it to have been stolen. It appeared that the two first-named prisoners have been for some length of time in the complainant's ern ploy, Jacobs holding a confidential situation, and both of them being provided with a dwelling on the premises. On Saturday morning last, between three and four o'clock, the policeman on duty near the complainants' wharf had intimation that three sacks of oats were ob served to be taken from thence to the stabling belonging to Simpson, a town carman. The policeman, upon this information, watched, and saw Simpson afterwards give three empty sacks to Jacobs. who was thereupon taken into custody. The other prisoners were subsequently apprehended, and in the most positive manner denied that they were concerned in the transaction. Evidence, however, was upon this occaion adluced, that Jacobs, upon being taken into custody, made_ a voluntary con fesion of his guilt, to a Mr. Kennard, to whom he de clared it was the first time he had ever plundered his employers, and expressed a hope that he would be forgiven, adding that he had been drawn into the corn• mission of the act by others. With respect to Simpson, who is a person in good c ircumstances, and up to the period, has borne an irreproachable character for honesty, it was alleged that he was actually present in his stables at the time the oats were taken there, and that he was therefore cognisant of the fact, and received there, well knowing they were stolen. Mr. Salomans, on the part of the receiver, urged in his defence, that the empty sacks he was seen to hand over to Jacobs on the morning in question had been lent to him previously, and he was returning them, and that, as had been asserted, they were not brought to his premises full of oats. The fact was, he had used the sacks at Richmond. A sample of the oats was produced, and it corresponded in quality and appearauce with a quantity recently purchased of them in a foreign market. In the course of the examination it appeared that the above firm had recently discovered that they had been plundered to a very serious extent, and there was no doubt it was by those in their employ. The MAGISTRATE committed Jacobs and Simpson for trial, the latter as the receiver, and adjudged the other prisoner to enter into his recognisance to appear at this Court at the commencement of the next sessions. LAMBETH. A FFILIATION.- l'ha , lesalo;r; King of No. 10, St. Maryaxe, was summoned to t•how• cause why he refused to contribute to the support of his illegitimate child. The defendant did not appear. Thorza Mahala Crabb deposed that she had been the servant of Mr. King, an attorney, at No. 40, St. Mary axe, and that he was the father of her child. One even ing in the month of October, 1844, he rung for her to bring up candles, and on that occasion he threw her on a sofa and had connexion with her, which was continued up to August, 1845, when she she left him. The child was born on the 12th of September last, in Lambeth workhouse. He paid her sums or money up to June this year, when he refused contributing more, saying he could not afford it. Amelia Clarke deposed to calling on Mr. King, in November last, respecting the maintenance of the child, when he acknowledged his liability to maintain the child, and said he would send some money for that purpose the next day. He said he wished the child should be put to nurse, and that the complainant should return to him at a house which he had taken in Globe road, Mile-end. A man called from him next day and paid two pounds. Saunders, L 190, proved that he had served two sum monses in this case, and that Mr. King said he was aware of what they were for, and would attend to it. Mr. ELLIOT adjudged the defendant to pay 2s. 6d. per week towards the expense of the child's mainte nance, such payment to commence from the date of the first summons. THAMES. ITALIAN ORGAN Bors.—Laeu Baptista Baracoli, miserable little fellow, an Italian street organ grinder, was put into the felon's dock before Mr. Broderip, to answer a charge of stealing an upright portable piano forte, the property of one John Budgeone, of Saffron hill. It appeared from the evidence of Dominico Malaspino, also an Italian, that the little foreign urchin was in the employ of Budgeone, who has a number of other lads in his service, whom he sends out daily with musical instru ments. Dominico is a sort of overlooker, and has been in search of the prisoner nearly a fortnight, he having absconded from Budgeone's house in Saffron-hill early in the morning of the 13th ult., taking with him the instrument he was charged with stealing. Dominico at length found him at his mother's house in Mercer's place, Shadwell, with the pianoforte in his possession. He called in the aid of a police-constable, mimed Blake, No. 137 K, and gave him into custody for a felony. Mr. BRODERIP inquired, with a feeling of anxiety, of the policeman, how it was that the lad was given in charge? Blake replied that the Italian, M. Malaspino, gave him in charge, and would have allowed him to go at large immediately after he obtained the pianoforte, but the prisoner insisted upon going before a magistrate, and would not go back with the man, Dominico, to his last master, Budgeone, of whom he appeared in great dread. Mr. BRODERIP asked the poor Italian boy to explain the matter, and in broken English he stated through his tears and sobs, that he was afraid to go back to his em ployer, that nine 'o'clock was the usual time to go out with the organ, but having been frequently beaten in his bed with a great many "cuts and stripes," because he did not bring home sufficient money, he was afraid of being exposed to similar treatment on the 13th of August, because he had not brought home the sum required on the previous night. He therefore stole out of the house early on the following morning, taking the instrument with him, to save another infliction of punishment, and in expectation of making up, by his industry, for the de ficiency of the previous day. His earnings, however, only amounted to 2d., for which small sum he trudged from morn to night through the metropolis, and that was not sufficient to satisfly the demands of his master, Budgeone. Mr. BRODERIP said, this was one of a class of cases where it had been proved that poor Italian boys were sent out in the morning by their cruel task-masters with musical instruments, and if they did not return home with a certain sum in the evening they were punished. The parties who traded in the poor boys were making the law a stalking-horse for their purposes, and he would not lend himself to such proceedings. He believed the lad had spoken the truth, and he could not but deprecate the system under which the Italian boys were hired. The worthy magistrate then read a severe lecture to Dominico Malaspino, to the great satisfaction of a crowded court. He was quite satisfied the prisoner was one of those poor miserable little foreigners who were made the prey of designing men. He should discharge the poor boy, who ought not to have been taken into custody at all. Dominico, who obtained possession of Budgeone's in struments which was all he cared about, slunk out of court with the just reproof of the magistrate, and the boy appeared overjoyed at being released from the thraldom of his master. HAMMERSMITH. THE LATE ROBBERY OF GOLD CHAINS, &C., AT HAN. , . MERSMITH.-DISCOVERY OF THE PRINCIPAL PORTION OF THE PROPERTY.—It having become known that the massive gold chains and other portions of the costly jewellery, late the property of Mrs. Riley, deceased, which were stolen on Easter Sunday last, the 13th of April, from the back drawing-room of the residence of Mr. Gilbert Kennedy, surgeon, of the Broadway, Ham mersmith, in which the dead body of that lady was lying, had been found, and that Mr. Archibald M'Niell, the assistant, who, with Mr. Kennedy, stands charged with having stolen the same, was again in custody, hav ing been delivered up by his bail, the Court was again crowded in every part by respectable persons, anxious to witness the proceedings in the case which has excited so much public attention, and in which so much mys tery has up to the present moment existed. At half:past two o'clock Mr. T. Paynter, the sitting magistrate, took his seat, and, after the disposal of some minor night charges, Mr. M'Nieli was placed at the bar. He appeared much paler than at his previous examination, and seemed labouring under considerable excitement of mind. Mr. T. Allen Jones, the solicitor for the prosecution, addressing Mr. Paynter, said, the charge against the prisoner, and against Mr. Kennedy, his employer, had already been gone into before Mr. G. Clive, the other magistrate of the Court, at considerable length, and on Wednesday last both prisoners had had their bail re newed for their appearance until Friday next. Since that time Inspector Morgan at d Sergeant Mount, T 29, had devoted the whole of their time to their endeavours to unravel the mystery in which the matter was en veloped, and on the previous day, information which they received led to some further disclosures on the part of the prisoner M'Niell, and to the recovery of a great portion of the stolen property. The bail who had en tered into recognisances for the appearance of the pri soner on Friday next, on being made acquainted with the circumstances, surrendered the prisoner in discharge of their onerous responsibility, and he had therefore at preSent only to request that the prisoner might be re manded fur safe custody until the next examination. The prisoner's former bail having declined to renew their recognisant s, Mr. PAYNTER asked the prisoner if he was provided with fresh bail? The prisoner said he had no one pre sent who would bail him. Mr. PAYNTER told him it was then his duty to remand him until Friday next. The prisoner was then removed in custody. Our reporter was informed that the articles recovered are the massive goad chain, the smaller ditto, four or five gold seals, and the gold eyeglass. The gold brace lets, rings, and brooch are still missing. On Monday, M'Niell having expressed an intention of destroying himself, was further questioned by the police, and eventually stated t hat the above property was concealed in a brown paper bag, containing about five pounds of sulphur virum, which they found on Mr. Kennedy's premises, whither M'Niell accompanied them. CAPTURE OF A GANG OF FIVE BURGLARS.—FiVO young men, all about eighteen or nineteen years of age, described on the police-sheet as George Moore, of No. 3, George-street, Holborn, George Gardener and James Gardener (brothers), of No. 5, Eden-street, Chelsea, John Jackson, of No. 7, Grange-terrace, Brompton, and John Witham alias Greenwood, of No. 20, Pye-street, Westminster, all well-known housebreakers, belonging to " Greenwood's Westminster Gang," were placed at the bar, on a charge of having burglariously entered the residence of Mr. Duesbury, a gentleman recently re turned from India, No. 1, Upper Gore, Kensington-road, and stealing a quantity of valuable property. Thomas Stubbs deposed, that he was the keeper of the Kensington gate of Hyde Park, and lived at the lodge at that gate. That about five o'clock that morning, as he was proceeding through that portion of the Park abutting on the high road, for the purpose of opening the Park gate close to the Halfway House, he saw the prisoners Jackson and Moore, near Messrs. Gray's nur sery, walking along the high road, towards Knights bridge, Moore having a large picture under each arm. They went on past Park House, when, seeing witness, they turned into the meadow, on which Ennismore Gar dens are about to be built, where they secreted them selves behind some pales. Witness went and unlocked the gate, and as he came back he saw the prisoners again come from the back of the wall of Park House without the pictures, and they went down the road to wards Kensington, until they met the other three pri soners, at which time he was unlocking the Park gate opposite the Countess of Blessington's, and they all then returned into the meadows. Witness then suspecting a robbery had been committed, went in search of a police man, and seeing Dunbar, T 91, coming up Gore-lane, he told him his suspicions. They then both went to the meadow and searched it. but could neither find the pri soners nor any property. Tho policeman then returned to the station-house and fetched two other constables, who, with witness, made a closer search of the meadow, and eventually discovered the two pictures produced covered over with earth. Elizabeth Knock deposed that she was head housemaid in the service of Mr. Duesbury, who was at present from town. The house was fastened up as usual on Monday night, and none of the inmates were disturbed during the night. That morning, about seven o'clock, in con sequence of information she received from the police, she found a number of articles of value missing, and she also discovered that the thie - /es had entered by means of one of the drawing-room windows. The two pictures, the Indian china ornaments, acd the napkins produced, were her master's property. Police-sergeant Skelton, B 4, deposed to having, with other constables, apprehended the whole of the prisoners together in Hyde Park, having watched them from Knightbridge until he could procure assistance. If the prisoners were remanded, he should be able to produce additional evidence against them in that and other cases, and also to prove for mer conv i ct i ons aga i nst the prisoners Witham, alias Greenwood, and Jackson, if not against the others. All the prisoners were accortlingly remanded for a week. GREENWICH. SERIOUS AFFRAY AT THE RAILWAY TERMINUS. — William Casey, inspector, and five otl, er police-constables on the Greenwich branch of the 6,1011-Eastern Railway, appeared to answer charges of assault, at the instance of John Munvard. Mr. I-I,rry appear( d in FliplY rt or the charges, and Mr. Clarkson attended on bt,Lall thu Railway Company's servants. It was agreed by the Counsel on both sides that the case of Mr. Inspector Casey shouid determine the others. Mr, lorry, in order to explain the matter, said that John Matthew Munyard, father of the present com plainant, had for a consithraLle eeriod rented tw o;arclies for stabling, and the use of an enclosed yard for the car riages of the railway compat: ) , in order to carry for ward the passengers arriving by the trains to Woolwich and other places. He understood that the elder Nun yard was a quarterly t‘iiat.t. The company had given him notice to quit, and at the; termination of what they considered the tenancy closed the outer gates, and dug up and embanked the same, so as to prevent ingress and egress. This procsteding having nearly put an end to his coaching trade, he called a sale by auction of a large portion of his stock of horses, carriages, &c. This took place on the 25th ult., and after the sale the com plainant, by order of his rather, went to the railway en trance for the purpose of fetching a carriage pole which had been left behind, and belonged to one of the car riages which had been sold by the auctioneer. At this period the cause or complaint occurred. Mr, lorry then called John Munyard, jun., who deposed that his father called a sale of stock on the 25th of August adjacent to the railway station. After the sale, it was discovered that the pole of an omnibus had been left on the pre mises. At five o'clock on that day his father directed him to fetch it. He knocked at the front gates of the railway for admission, and was answered by some person from within that they had got them out and meant to keep them there. He then went round to a side gate to seek admission, and was let in by a boy. On going into the yard, he found all sorts of stable utensils strewn about. The lock of the stable-door had been removed, and another affixed in its place. He saw Inspector Casey and a person named Nash. He called upon Casey to um• lock the stable-door. Casey said he should not go in, and if he (witness) offered to do so, he should have him chucked out of the yard. Witness took up the pole from amongst some straw in the yard, and was in the act of getting it away, when the defendant said he was tres prssing. He replied, " Then unlock the stable-door, and let me get out my property." He sent the pole away. Casey and Nash ordered him off the premises, and witness said, " Do if you are disposed, but let me see if all the things are removed." Casey then seized him by the neck, assisted by Nash, and tore his hand kerchief. White, Roscoe, and Dykes joined the other defendants. He then seized a hammer, and broke the lock off. Mr. MAUL said the complainant had put himself out of Court by his own confession. A forcible entry had been made, after being requested quietly to go away, so that the whole of the violence occurred subsequent to the trespass, and after being ordered off the premises. The pretext about fetching the pole was a cover to the act of breaking open the stable. Mr. Clarkson—There had been a notice sent to Mun yard, sen., that he might take away all things belong ing to him on application, and the articles were in the yard. His client knew what a desperate party they had to deal with. Instead of a quarterly tenant, Munyard was only a weekly tenant, subject by agreement, to twenty-four hours' notice to give up possession. That natice had elapsed long since. He could clearly show, if the cross-examination were gone into, the outrageous conduct of the Munyards. Indeed it was well known to all. There had been 300 fellows brought by them to the terminus, and many had scaled the walls from the top of Munyard's omnibuses, evidently for hostile pur poses. The company's servants went in danger of their lives, and were afraid of going off the premises after dark. They must have ample protection against a re petition of such acts, otherwise he would be compelled to call on the cross summonses. He (Mr. Clarkson) thonght these the most favourable terms he could consent to. Mr. TRAILL said he should discharge the summons as against the defendants, and if Munyard expressed his great regret for the conduct he had been guilty of, and would enter into his recognisance of 401. to keep the peace for six months. he was ready (provided Mr. Clark sen consented on behalf of his clients) to withdraw all fur ther proceedings. Mr. Clarkson said he would consent to this arrange ment, and he could not help saying the terms were most favourable. Henry and Charles Mattison, omnibus drivers, who had taken a most active part on account of Munyard in violating the law, would not be proceeded against on similar terms. Ample apologies were then offered, and the required sureties having been entered into, the parties withdrew. THE DISMISSED REPEAL MAGIS- TR ATES. The following correspondence has taken place between the Irish Chancellor's Secretary, Mr. F. W. Brady, and Mr. Joseph Miles M•Donnell, one of the Members for Mayo, who was deprived of the Commission of the Peace in consequence of some violent political sentiments which he delivered at a repeal meeting held in Sligo : " Secretary's Office, Four Courts, Dublin, August 25, 1846. -•- - - - - - " Sir,—l am directed by the Lord Chancellor to ac qius.int you that the attention of the Lord Lieutenant having been given to the circumstance of the removal of magistrates at various times from the Commission of the Peace, on account of their conduct in relation to political meetings and demonstrations, his Excellency has been pleased to convey to him the opinion that those cases might be severally reconsidered with a view of deciding upon the propriety of restoring to the Commission such of those gentlemen as he might think properly qualified for the office ; and the Lord Chancellor has felt it to be his duty to act upon this opinion. " In referring to lists of Magistrates who have been so removed, it appears that pursuant to an order bearing date 2nd of June, 1843, your name was removed from the commission of the peace for the counties of Mayo and Sligo. " Mr. Sugden's letters to you of the 24th and 30th May, and sth June, 1843, with yours of the 26th May and 2nd June, in that year, exhibit the grounds of this order. `on the best consideration he has given to the sub ject, and to the circumstances under which your remove took place, the Lord Chancellor is of opinion that the letters contain nothing which ought now to preclude your being restored to the commission of the peace. " lie desires me to say that if it should be your wish to resume the office of a Magistrate, he is prepared to give the necessary directions for your being replaced. " I have the honour to be, Sir, your very humble and obedient servant, " FRANCIS WILLIAM BRADY, Sec. " To Joseph Miles M`Donnell, Esq. M P." " Reform Club, London, Aug. 31. " Sir,—Your letter of the 25th inst., with which I am favoured, having been directed to Doo Castle during my attendance here on my Parliamentary duties, will ex plain why it has not been earlier acknowledged. It con veys to me the gratifying intelligence that the Lord Chancellor, on the late consideration he has given the. subject of my removal from the Cimunission of the Peace in June, 1843, and to the circumstances under which that removal took place, is of opinion that the letters which passed between Mr. Sugden and me on that occa sion contain nothing which ought now to preclude my being restored to the Commission. You will pardon my adding they contain nothing which then justified my removal, or else I presume I should not be n.)w re stored. What a practical commentary on the adminis tration of Irish affairs the dismissal and the necessity for the restoration of the Repeal Magistrates of the kingdom presents I With such facts staring the world in the face can it be a matter of wonder that Ireland should have been a difficulty' to those who have under taken to do the business of the aristocracy of Eng land. This one act of the late Government, and I wish to speak with all leniency of the dead, annihilated the confidence of that immense class, the peasantry of Ireland, as well as all other classes, in the administra tion of the law. I apprise you of a literal tact when I tell you that the people in - my province wept with grief and alarm when those in whom they confided at all times were removed from the bench, and they crowded round their venerated clergy declaring that they had no longer any hope of safety. There was a truth in this declara tion not credible in other parts of the world. Was it not natural that the people should have trembled at being left exposed to the violence of local factions, when the very Executive itself had ventured openly to sweep the bench of the very magistrates themselves, merely for the legal, constitutional, and rightf u l expression of political opinion ? The Lord Chancel lor, by restoring to the Commission the magistrates then removed, and doing so, as you are pleased to apprise me, in compliance with the expressed opinion of the Lord Lieutenant, obviously does much towards restoring public confidence, likewise by giving an assurance that henceforth the laws in Ireland will be administered by the friends of Ireland I beg you will therefore convey to the Lord Chancellor the expression of my gratitude, not only on personal, but on public grounds. It is indeed to me peculiarly gratifying to receive the Commission from the Lord Chancellor's hands. I had, in consequence of my removal on account of my adherence to the na tional principles, pledged myself not to accept the Com mission, except from an Irish Chancellor. The election of the eminent judge who now holds the seals has re moved the difficulty in which I might be placed. Sin cerely wishing that his Lordship may long administer the high office which his learning, impartiality, and character are certain to dignify ; and also that I may yet have the pride and pleasure of seeing his Lordship presiding on the Woolsack in the Irish House of Lords. " I have the honour to be, Sir, "Your most obedient servant, " J. M. M'DONNELL. " F. W. Brady, Esq., &c. &c. &c." SKYE —DEER-STALKING.—MacIeod of Macleod has at present among his visitors at Dunvegan Castle, Lord St. John and his lady, Mr. Henry Baillie, M.P., and his lady. &c. After a few days at grouse shooting (in which the party have been very successful) they are now going MY to deer stalking among the precipices and ravines of the Coolin Hills, and to fish the streams that issue from them. Lord Mac donald has been highly successful in that sport in the same direction, having already killed eight deer, some of which were noble animals with full grown antlers. Such is his Lordship's fondness for this sport that he has converted the Inn of Sconser into a shooting lodge, where he and his Lady have been residing for some weeks. The loss of this inn to tourists is not felt, as that of Sligichan is only three miles distant, and two inns were rather near each other on a road not greatly frequented.—lnverness Courier. THE MOORS AND DEER FORESTS• (From the Ross-shire Advertiser.) Aided by a continuance of the most favourable weft' ther, sportsmen on the moors and in the forests are now in full activity.
