trb V3l4bition+ Sun O f fice, 7 o'clock, IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT, HOUSE OF LORDS--(THIS EVENING.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Wooback at five o'clock.: The Duke of NEWCASTLE presented a petition from Glasgow,• praying for the removal of all indirect taxes, and for the imposition of a direct and general Income tax. Also, two petitions from Auckland, in New Zea land, expressing their extreme surprise at the revenues of the colony being pledged for the payment of the losses of the New Zealand Company, and praying for a reversal of recent legislation on this subject. Lord PANMURE presented several petitions from different parts of Scotland, praying for the abolition of all religions tests for professors of the Scotch universities. OPENING OF THE CRYSTAL PALACE ON SUNDAY. Lord PANMURE presented a petition against the opening of the Crystal Palace on Sunday. The Earl of DERBY took the present opportunity of correcting a misapprehension which had existed on this subject. He himself had had an interview with the directors of the Crystal Palace Company, during which this question had been brought forward. For his own part he had no hesitation in saying, notwithstand ing the many representations which he had received, that subject to certain restrictions, to which he believed the directors were willing to submit, the opening of the Crys tal Palace on Sunday, so far from being a desecration of the Sabbath, would,be productive of great advantage in enabling the population of London to obtain those ad vantages which the company would afford to them on the Sunday afternoon. (Cheers.) The directors had dis tinctly stated to him that they intended to throw open to the 'public only the beautiful and extensive park, gar dens, and conservatory, but to keep closed those portions of the building which were devoted to v machinery, manu factw es, and commerce, which would require the atten dance of exhibitors. The hours at which the grounds would Ire opened, would be such as not to interfere with the at tendance of the population of London at Divine service I in the morning ; return tickets would be issued to carry the visitors straight back to London, without accumu -1 lating in the nei g hb our h oo d , and it was intended that in the precincts of the building no spirituous liquors should be sold. It was a question at present under the consi x. deration of the proper law officers, whether a certain statute, passed for a very different purpose, might not be .. so Construed as to prevent the Crystal Palace being ;opened on Sunday ; and if such should turn out to be the ease, no clause inserted in the charter could make it legal—the consent of Parliament alone could do it. After a few words from the Marquis of CLANRI CARDE, who condemned the whole law of partnership in this country, Lord CAMPBELL rose and was (Left Speaking.) HOUSE OF COMMONS--(THIS EVENING). The .- SiBAK - uu took the chair shortly before 4 o'clock. , NEW MEMBERS. Tge oaths were administered to several members, among -whom were Mr. Roebuck, Mr. T. O'Brien, and Mr. PETITIONS. Sir IL INGLIS presented a petition from Lancashire against the Maynooth grant, and against the interference of the Roman Catholic priests at elections. Lord D. STUART presented three petitions from the metropolis; praying for the interference of the House to obtain the liberation of Edward Murray, who had been sentenced to imprisonment in the galleys for life by the Papal authoritieS at Rome. Sir W. MOLESWORTH presented a petition from the Australian colonies, praying for the cessation of transportation to Van Diemen's Land. Mr. COWAN presented two petitions from Edin burgh, one praying for a more liberal system of national education in Scotland, and the oth er pray i ng t h at steps be tak en b y the House to obtain the liberation of Andrew Murray. CASE OF MR. PAGET. In reply to a question put by Mr. M. MILNES, to the Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs respecting the seizure and inspection of the private papers of Mr. Paget, an English subject resident at Dresden, not by the S axon G overnment, but by the Austrian police act ing in Saxony. Lord STANLEY said it was true that Mr. Paget, a British subject, who had been for two years resident in Brussels, had his house entered by the police, and his papers seized, but it appeared from the informa tion in possession of the Government, that they were seized by the police of the country, and not by those belonging to Austria. The British Minister, Mr. Forbes, addressed a remonstrance to the authori ties, and the result was the return of Mr. Paget's papers, and an intimation that the police who had taken upon themselves the seizure in questien had received a severe reprimand. Mr- SPOONER gave notice, that immediately after the Christmas recess he would move that the house re solve itself into a committee of the whole house, to con sider the Act of the Bth and 9th Vic. chap. 25, commonly called "the last Maynooth Act"—(laughter) —with a view to the repeal of those clauses which provided mo ney grants in any way to the same college. (Laughter.) REPEAL OF DUTIES ON BUTTER, &c. Mr. EWART gave notice that on an early day he would ask for leave to bring in a bill for the repeal of the duties on butter, cheese, eggs, and poultry. (Laughter.) ADULTERATION OF COFFEE. Mr. COWAN intimated that he would postpone asking his question as to the order of the Treasury res Tieng articles mixed w ith co ff ee, as the Secretary to Position thasury had i n f orme d hi m that he was not in a to answer it. WESTM INSTER BRIDGE. Sir DE L. EVANS asked the First Commissioner of Woods what the definite-intentions of Government were as to the removal, or the contrary, of the buildings on either side of Bridge-street, Westminster-bridg e ; and, if onej or both sides of that street be intended to be re moved, at what period it might be intended to carry the same into . effect. Lord G. MANNERS said it was the intention of the Government to introduce a measure this session for the erection of a new bridge at Westminster. The houses on the north side of the river belonged to the bridge com missioners, and the leases of all would shortly expire. As regarded the south aide, the purchase of the leases would be so very expensive an affair, that the Govern ment did not. contemplate their removal, they being not necessarily connected with the scheme. FACTORY INSPECTIONS. lii reply to a question, 1 1 / 4 Tr. Secretary WALPOLE stated, that a memorial whic b. the Government had recently received from Man dl:water on'this subject would shortly be laid on the ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS. Sir B. HALL wished to ask three questions of the right hon. gentleman the Secretary of State for the Home Department. First--Was it the intention of Government to introduce any bill this session, to carry out the recommendation of the committee on the subject of ecclesiastical courts ? Secondly, whether Government intended to take steps to put a stop to the Itoznish and irregular proceedings which were practised by m embers of th e Established Church ? And, thi r some lyd, whether Government intended to enforce the act relat ing to Epi scopa l i ncomes, with the view of preventing the stipends of the Bishops reaching'a point which went beYerad that recognised by law ? Air. WALPOLE said the Government were favour able to an extensive and decided reform in the Ecclesi astici.74l Courts, but they were anxious that such reform all(ruld have th e approva l of all parties, and as t h e Chancery.

It. IL I NGLIS objected t /- . discussion reverted 0 the umion Nang agreed to, as it-would lead to a great waste of time. Besides there were many members who had had no notice what ever of the proposed call. It was not carried till a late hour on Friday; and with all the advantages of science which they -possessed for the transmission of intelligence, ,it was physically impossible that all members could hal e been made acquainted with the motion. But if they en forced the attendance of all the 654 members that com prised the preSent house;they had no power to make them vote to-morrow, and the motion, if carried, would prove useless. He should therefore take the sense of the house upon it. Mr. COBDEN thought there might be a good deal said on both sides of the question. The right hon. gen tleman observed that though the house might compel all the members to attend to-morrow, they could not force them to vote, meaning, probably, that some would run away, for that was the suspicion which he raised. (Laughter, and "Oh.") Seeing, however, that the motion of the hon. member for Montrose had been com pletely successful, he would recommend that the motion now before the house should be withdrawn. Mr. WALPOLE said he was one of those who voted for the "call," as proposed by Mr. Hum; who held an important position in the house, and who thought it was desirable to have as large an attendance as possible on so important a question, and especially as it was mainly directed against her Majesty's present Government ; but he so entirely agreed with the observations of the hon. member for the West Riding, that he thought the withdrawal of the motion, now that it had answered its purpose, would meet with the general approval of the House. Lord J. RUSSELL was understood to approve of the suggestion. Sir J. WALMSLEY intimated that he would, under the circumstances, abandon the motion. The motion for "a call " was then, by leave, with drawn. THE SUN', LONDON ; MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 22, 1852. LANDED PROPERTY IN IRELAND, The ATTORNEY GENERAL for Ireland then rose to move for leave to bring in a bill to facilitate the improvement of landed property in Ireland, and claimed the indulgence of the house for a short time while he explained the object of the measure. He had received great assistance from many eminent men who had considered this important subject, and hoped the bill would be found practical, if it did not prove eminently successful. Shortly after he entered Parlia ment, Mr. S. Crawford brought this subject first before the notice of the house, and though he differed with many .f the plans which that honourable gentleman propounded, he could not help feeling that the prc. minence which this question had obtained, was in some measure due thim. At all events, it was his perseverance and assiduity which induced him to turn his earnest and deliberate attention to the subject, and if anything come of his study he should be prepared to give much of the credit ta. Mr. Crawford himself. (Hear, hear.) The late Sir Robert Peel, just before his death, pronounced an opinion that a brilliant future was open to Ireland, if the laws of landlord and tenant could be placed upon improved and sound basis. (Hear, hear.) [LEFT SPEAKING.] APPEARANCE OP ME. • ROEBUCK IN THE HOUSE.— This evening the hon. and learned member for Sheffield entered the house shortly after its sitting, and took the oaths along with several other hon. members. He looked much better than when last seen in public, but there was a lack of that energy and activity in his man ner which characterised him during the greater part of ast session. QUEEN'S BENCH.—(THIS DAY.) ACHILLI V. NEWEL&N. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition.) Sir Alexander Cockburn then moved for a rule to show cause why a new trial should not be granted in this case on the ground of misdirection, of the verdict being against evidence, and of the exclusion of evidence. The Attorney-General said he thought his learned friend was out of order in moving for a new trial now. Such an application ought to have been made within the first four days of term. Lord Campbell said that it was never too late for jus tice to be done. In the present case the Court would overrule the objection, but it was most desirable to main tain the rules of Court, and all applications in future must be made within the usual time. Sir A. Cockburn then proceeded to comment on all the charges brought against Dr. Achilli, on all of which, except the 19th, the jury had pronounced him innocent. The learned counsel relied most particularly on the case of the woman Principe, who deposed that Dr. Achilli had had criminal intercourse with her in the sacristy of a church at Naples. All these charges, he contended, were proved most satisfactorily, and none but the twelve gentlemen in the box could have refused to credit them. It was evident that there existed a strong religious bias in the minds of the jury—(applause in the gallery)— and he firmly believed that in consequence of that justice had not been done. With regard to the misdi rection, he rested that upon the fact that the Lord Chief-Justice, who had tried the case, had directed the jury to receive the judgment of the Inquisition put in by the defence, simply as evidence of the fact that such a judgment had been pronounced, but not as any evidence of the facts on which the judgment was alleged to have been pronounced. The allegation of exclusion of evidence he grounded upon the exclusion by the Lord Chief-Justice of the article in the Dublin Review, con taining the same libel as that which was the subject of the present prosecution, and published a year and a half before it. The Court having consulted together, Lord Campbell said the- learned counsel might take a rule nisi, on the ground of the verdict being against evi dence only. Rule nisi accordingly. This announcement was received with applause from the galleries. Dr. Newman, during the whole of the proceedings, sat under his counsel, and appeared to be engaged in reading the "Office."

MUNIFICENT GIFT.—Mr. Joshua Bates, of the firm of Baring Brothers and Company, of London, has written a letter to Mayor Seaver, of Boston, United States, offering to supply the new public library of that city with books to the amount of 50,000 dollars. One con dition only attends the gift. . It is, " that the building shall be such as shall be an ornament to the city—that there shall be room for 150 persons to sit at reading tables—that it shall be perfectly free to all, with no other restrictions than may be necessary for the preservance of the books." RATHER ANOMALOUS.—It is a singular consequence of the institutions of the United States, that although the recent Presidential election has virtually annihilated the principles and the party of the present administration in the first week of November, yet Mr. Fillmore and his cabinet will continue to conduct public affairs till the 4th of March, and that in the interval the President will, as usual, address Congress, and take all the steps he may think fit, in obedience to a system of policy which the nation has repudiated and condemned. THE DONCASTER RACE GRANT.—We are very glad to hear that a 2001. addition to the 1,000/. Autumn Race Grant of 1853 was carried in a Council Meeting of the Doncaster Corporation, on Monday lgst. The proposi tion was made by Mr.• COuneillor Johnson (one of the most active and liberal originators of the Spring Meet ing), who proved by some most unanswerable figures, that every concession of late years on the part of the Corporation had been most liberally responded to by the racing world, and had brought greatly increased receipts into the Corporation exchequer. After a warm discus sion his motion-was carried by 11 to 9, the mayor voting in the minority. When we remember that the receipts of the last year were nearly 5001. more than they had been in any previous year, we are sorry that the vote should not have been an unanimous one ; • but, as the racing interests have now so many staunch friends in the Corporation itself, and the burgesses are almost unani mous on the point, there is no doubt that the grant will soon be fixed permanently. at 1,2001. The Corporation very liberally concede to the Race Committee the entire use of the grand stand free of all charge in the spring, and thus next year Doncaster will give very little short of two thousand guineas to be run for at her two meet ings: We trust that the Corporation will only follow up ttnralngood deed by building a proper stand for reporters, in oblivion. the ers, and jockeys ; and we may then safely assure rn that the little feud which has long existed between rnensely to str T he themselves and the racing world will be for ever buried first day ; andewn additional 2001. will contribute inl et least two new gtheri the programme, especially on the so nobly done its a cr U. e r het Lr that it is proposed to establish "added money," well Now that the Corporation has by the racing men, as regards K o ope that the annual subscription of Earl Scarborough the nucleus of an entlirel 1 heir Race Fund, will be made tt e K e n e eNv u _Plate, which the visitors furnish between them. and the railways mig LIVERPOOL WOOL MARECIL,4I•To 17.--A good in as quirt' for wool, bu not much bus iness , v. stocks are small.

FALLING DOWN A COAL PIT.—At Langum, Pem brokeshire, the wife of a collier, sent a few days ago, her two children to get some culm by stealth from the bank of a culm pit near their cottage, and remaining away longer than she anticipated, she was apprehe ns i ve that something had happened to them as the night was dark, and taking a lighted torch in her hand, she went in search of them. The children observed the li g h t ap. proaching them, and supposing it was carried by one of the watchers belonging to the colliery, they made towa r d s suddenlythey ytoldtheir fathe r di sappear. When h m e e n , t hwehye reachedwhen their cottage what they had seen, and after an active search mad e b y light the neighbours, the lifeless body of the poor woman was found in a shaftf about 18 fathoms deep, in a dreadf u ll y mangled state. The deceased was the mother of t en children. ALLEGED MURDER BY POACHERS AT SHIPWIC K , SOMERSET.—The dead body of a young man, named James Hayes, the nephew of a gamekeeper, named Crane, in the employ of H. B. Stangway, Esq., was found under circumstances ine.ncing the belief that he was murderously shot by poachers. Mr. Strangway had desired his keepers to take steps "ta prevent the rabbits on his estate from being shot and carried off by poachers, and Crane had employed deceased to assist him. Some days ago, after Hayes had gone out with his. gun, the discharge of fire-arms was heard, rod he was not seen again until his body was accidentally discovered among some furze. The charge of a gun had entered his left breast. By his side lay his gun, which was loaded. THE NEWEST DODGE.—The city has been this week stirred by the announcement of a Tory petition against the return of Sir James Graham and Mr. Ferguson, at the last election. The precise allegations and prayer are not yet stated—no doubt they will run to the effect that the members gained their election,by dint of treat ing, bribery, and intimidation, unexampled since the year 1847; that purity of election so emphatically de veloped and illustrated by Mr. Hodg,son in that memo rable year 1847, was in this current 1852 sorely out raged by Sir James and Mr. Ferguson, and the virtuous Hodgson made a victim to Moloch ; and that it can be vindicated only by displacing them, and seating him, the hero of 1847. —Carlisle Journal.

(Before Sir Geo. Turner.) CALLOW V. WOODBRIDGE. Mr. Co tterill applied ex parte for an injunction to re strain the defendants ,from parting with, defacing, or destroying certain contracts which were stated in the bill which had been filed in aid of an action at law, pray ing for the production of documents. The case stated in support of the motion was, that the plaintiff, with two of the defendants, had entered into a contract with an Australian company, for the grant of a tract of land for mining purposes, for the sum of 24,0001. The grantees had subsequently as to sell the benefit of this contract to some of the defendants for 30,000/. ; 5,000/. were to be paid within forty days after the date of 'assignment ; 13,000/. within sixty days ; and the re mainder as soon as the certificate was received from an agent in Australia showing that possession had been given. The deed of assignment, with the original con tract, had been handed over to the defendants, who, having themselves entered into a contract with the com pany, the original lessee, it was alleged, had declined to complete the contract. His Honour refused the ex parte injunction, on the ground that there was no evidence, by any overt act, or by any communication, of an intentio n t o i n j ure or des troy the documents, but allowed notice of motion to be given for next week. (Before Vice-Chancellor Stuart.) IN TUB MATTER OF BRITON (CARMARTRENSHIRE) FRIENDL' SOCIHTY. This was a petition by the officers of a friendly society established at Llanegwad, in the county of Carmarthen, to enforce the payment, by two of its members, Mr. Jones and Mr. Davies, of a portion of the funds alleged to be in their hands. The petition alleged that in 1850, a resolution had been passed by a general meeting, that the society shouild be dissolved after the funds were col lected and dgtributed proportionally. Some of this money had been placed in the hands of the respondents, and by them placed in the Carmarthen Bank. The peti tion alleged that the amount had been drawn out, and it sought repayment. The principal question was as to the proper remedy under such circumstances. Mr. Bevir, in support of the petition, stated that as this society had been formed prior to the statutes 3d and 4th Vic., c. 73, 9th and 10th Vic. c. 27, and 13th and 14th Vic., c. 116, they afforded the members no remedy. It was asked that the Court would now interfere under the 10th Geo. IV., c. 56, sec. 14, which gave jurisdic tion to the courts of great session in Wales, or the Kinky side of the Exchequer in England. The latter jurisdiction had been transferred to the Court of Chan oery. The act required proof of the enrolment of the ales of the society. This was proposed to be afforded by the production of the book of rules of the society, signed by the clerk of the peace for the county at the sessions, when such enrolment had been so attested. The Vice-Chancellor made the order for payment, ob serving that there seemed to be no doubt about the jus tice of the case, or of the jurisdiction of the Court, ac cording to the construction of the act of 10th Geo. IV., to which reference had been made. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH--SATURDAY. COBBETT V. HUDSON. In the early part of this term, Mr. Cobbett moved in person for a rule to show cause why a new trial should not be had in this case, on the ground that the learned judge had improperly refused to receive his evidence at the trial, he having acted as his own advocate. This rule was subsequently argued by Mr. Watson, QM., for the defendant and by the plaintiff in person. Lord Campbell now delivered judgment. The court were of opinion the rule for a new trial should be made absolute. Their lordships were fully aware of the many inconvenient consequences which would follow from allow ing a party to be at once witness and advocate in his own cause, and did not hesitate to express their strong disap probation of such a course ; but they could not, as the law stood, disallow it. Before the recent law of evidence the right of a party to an action to conduct his case was un doubted ; that statute permitted a plaintiff or defendant to be a witness on his own behalf, but did not infringe upon his antecedent right. It was stated at the trial that verdicts had been set aside on the sole ground that parties had acted both as advocate and witness, but on closer examination it did not appear the cases laid down such a rule. One of the cases arose where, upon the trial before the Sheriff, the attorney for the plaintiff hav mg addressed the jury as advocate, was admitted as a witness. Mr. Justice Patteson, on the motion for a new trial, said such a Mine was not proper, and that the vidence ought 'lot to have been received. But there the evidence had been received after the defendant's case was closed, and after .his advocate had replied, and this, in truth, was the ground of the decision. In another somewhat similar case, where Mr. Justice Erle had granted a new trial, the point turned upon the circumstances of the case, and no general rule was laid down upon the subject. The "King v. Price" (6 Bar. and Ald. 606), also cited, was an indictment in which it was decided the prosecutor should not address Although the jury, the court observing a prosecutor was generally a witness. But there the• King was in fact the plaintiff, advocate. and i v oca the te . take upon himself the office of question was, whether a private and un qualified 2 3, might l u so o h b , tj object i onabl e interfere,el aer ed l e d o , h j ar ba t h en t but te authorityt h e law the court found there was no rule real a ks l on could against a party acting both as witness and advocate, their lordships were clearly of opinion that in a case like this there was no necessity for such a course. The plain tiff had had counsel assigned to him, mode at the trial on the other side to postpone it until and an offer was the attendance of that gentleman could be obtained. If Practice gained ground the legislature in them, might ma ke an order whereby the present rule judges under the authority vested judge at allow n t isi he plaintiff to be examined as a witness, after addressing in sto re o fiti t in h g e a jßulury. e absolute fora new trial accordingly.

It was after mess when he went, and he (the learn( d counsel) understood he was sober ; but, as usual, ther e was every pttention paid to gentlemen who wanted to rse the roulette table, and champagne was thrown abc m t for their use. The consequence was that Lieut ant tnt Ronalds became - elated, and having lost the 15/. w hi,el t he had in his pocket, he played on credit until he h ad b )st about .500/4 and an I 0 U for 501., and the hat cal question, were given on account of part of this su This I 0 U was afterwards handed over to another off .cer who had won'; but he, however, went the next night and lost it back again.

Re was requested by the officers of Seventy acres of land near Keighley, in Yorkshire, were bought by the defendant at public auction, for 1,8901. In the advertisement it was stated that there was a " vein of coal under the land, worked in an ad joining property ;" but no mention of coal was to be found in the particulars of the sale, which took place in July, 1850. In those particulars it was, however, de clared that if the buyer did not, within a month after the delivery of the abstract of the title, raise an objection to it, he was to be held as accepting it. The abstract was delivered accordingly, and in it there was a clear state ment that the right to the mines and minerals was re served, because there was a reservation of them in the original lease, granted in 1786. The defendant, notwith standing this reservation, took possession of the land, erected new outhouses, and made no objection to the title within the stipulated month ; but in Decem ber following, when called on to complete his pur chase, he asked for compensation, on the ground of not being able to dig the coal under the land, or that he might be relieved from his purchase. The ven dors refused, and filed a claim for specific performance, while the purchaser also filed a claim for compensa tion, At the hearing, the Vice-Chancellor Knight Bruce dismissed both the claims without costs, and left the parties to their legal rights, holding that the plain tiffs had been guilty of culpable negligence in not stat ing, as they ought to have done in their advertisement, that the right to the coal under the surface was reserved, and holding also that the defendant had been guilty of a neglect and delay, which shut him out of relief. The Lord Chancellor, before whom the case came on appeal, now gave judgment. His lordship could not see how such compensatio n could be estimated ; but being of opinion that the purchaser had no right to co m pl a i n , an d being also of opinion, with the Vice-Chancellor, that the sellers ought to have been more particular in their state ments as to what they had to sell, he dismissed both ap peals with costs, and advised the purchaser to complete his purchase without further litigation. the 77th to allow them to coma to his room. He did not let the room, but lent it to the officers. He saw seven or eight officers there, and he also saw Chapple there, but he did not see them playing at roulette. Mr. Collier—Did you see a roulette table in the room? Witness—l believe lam not bound to answer the question. - Mr. Collier—Do you refuse? Witness—Yes, I do refuse. His Lordship said he thought the witness was entitled to refuse to answer, upon the ground that it might tend to criminate himself. The case was heard down to this point on Friday, when it was adjourned ; and this morning Mr. Hex was again called into the box, and he stated that the officers were in his room for three or four hours, and that he went into the room once or twice during the time There were some fowls, and ham, and tongue, as d things of that sort there, and also some champagne and brandy and water. To Mr. Justice Cresswell—He should say Lieutenant Ronalds was about 25 or 26 years of age. Mr. Chambers said his client had promised to be in court by half-past nine o'clock, in order to be examined; but it was now past ten, and he had not arrived. Mr. Justice Cresswell said he would wait long enough, to see whether he really intended to come or not. The business of the Court was accordingly suspended until half-past ten, but the defendant did not mall his appearance, and a verdict was consequently taken for the plaintiff for the amount of the bill and interest, 2531. 13s. 6d. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY—Nov. 20. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) IN RE J. STREETER. This was the certificate meeting the bankrupt was a corn merchant at Brighton. It appeared from the report of the official assignee that the bankrupt was a corn and coal merchant at Brighton, where he had carried on business twenty-eight years. He was also in partnership with two other persons, under the firm of John Ingledon and Co., in a corn mill, and it is in respect of a liability incurred on account of that partnership, and which he would not pay to the detriment of his own creditors, that he preferred to become a bankrupt. He now owes to unsecured creditors 2,7361., and on partnership liabilities 1,6501. He also owes, to a creditor holding secu rity 1,3261., such security being a mortgage on his shop premises at Brighton, dated in 1848, and which have realised on sale under the bankruptcy 2,070/., thus leaving a .considerable surplus to the estate. His assets consist of debts, 1,147, and property 6691. and the surplus from the mortgaged property 7301., from which amounts 2,600/. has been received. His profits during two years, over which the balance sheet extends, have been 2,9751., while his trade ex penses have been 1,664/. and his losses 5031., the greater part of which have arisen from sales under the bankruptcy. His personal expenses have been 1,2201., or at the rate of 6001. a year. The bankrupt had kept ledger and cash book with great regularity. The official assignee consider it further his duty to report that the conduct of the bankrupt, both before and after the bankruptcy, as far as it has come under the official as signee, has been blameless. His Honour said he was happy to say that the bank rupt would leave the Court without the slightest impu tation upon his character. His Honour proceeded to speak of the bankrupt's conduct in high terms, and con cluded by granting an immediate certificate of the first class. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET.--The driver of cab 1,844 appeared before Mr. Henry upon a summons, which had been issued at the i ns t ance o f M r. J. Wood, Chairman of the Board of Inland Revenue, charging him with having ex acted more than his legal fare. Mr. Wood stated that he took the defendant's cab at Hampstead on Thursday morning, and desired to be driven to Oxford-square. He had heard of the mon strous sums that were being asked by cabmen on the day in question, and he was determined to ask no questions of the driver, but order him to go to his destination, and then to pay him his legal fare of 2s. 4d. On ar riving at Oxford-square, the defendant demanded 3s. 6d. He tendered him his legal fare, but defendant insisted upon more. Complainant then allowed him to take the 3s. 6d. Mr. Wood further stated that he had heard of as much as 455. having been paid to cabmen ou Thurs day for going to St. Paul's, and he was determined to punish the shameful extortions of the men. Mr. Henry said the public were indebted to Mr. Wood for the trouble he had taken in the matter. He then inflicted a penalty of 405., besides the excess of fare and costs. The amount was paid, THAMES.—SamueI Morley, a tall and repulsive looking fellow, aged 27, and described as a mason, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with breaking and entering the Pigot Arms public-house, in the East India road, Poplar, and also with assaulting and wounding William Brooks, a police constable, with intent to mur der or do him some grievous bodily harm. Inspector Holmes, of the K division, put in a certifi cate, stating that Brooks was in imminent danger, and under medical treatment. Thomas Bowles, 452, a reserve, said—This morn ing, at half-past two o'clock, I was in the East India road. I heard a faint cry of " Stop thief," and caught the prisoner running direct from the Pigot Arms. He was followed by my brother officer, Brooks, whose face was covered with blood. I went to the Pigot Arms, and found that the house had been broken into, but nothing was taken. I found a life-preserver and part of a waistcoat in the yard. I took from the prisoner the other part of the waistcoat. The policeman then produced a life-preserver loaded at he end with lead. Mr. Yardley—How was the waistcoat torn ? Bowles—The prisoner, when he sprung away from to wounded policeman :Brooks, left part his wais coat behind him. Brooks had hold of it, and one-ha, of it was left in his hand. He is most dreadfully beaten and wounded, and there are four large holes in his head. There was another man concerned in the bur glary, who ran away while Brooks and the prisoner were struggling, and threw away a "jemmy," or crow bar, which I picked up in the street. Mr. Yardley having read the medical certificate, said he should remand the prisoner for a week on both charges, Elizabeth Durant, a young woman 19 years of age, was charged with being drunk and disorderly. The prisoner, when placed at the bar, had nothing on but her chemise and an old petticoat, borrowed from the workhouse, having torn all her clothes to tatters when taken to the station. She had to be brought down in a cab, with her hands tied behind, and had all the appearance of a maniac. When she bounded into the dock she cried "Here's saucy Bet again," and went on to state that she was the daughter of a shopkeeper, who formerly kept a large shoe factory in Farringdon-street. She complained that she had been robbed of two sovereigns at a house where she had three bottles of wine, but she did not care for that. Mr. Yardley—l must send you to prison for a month. Prisoner—Why not send me to the House of Deten tion for a month ? I tell you what, Mr. Yardley, I shall go in the van stark naked, as I will make ribands of every stitch upon me. She was then locked up. MARYLEBONE.—John Dogiterty was charged with having stabbed Constable Crittall, 239 D. The wounds inflicted on the officer were of so serious a nature that, although given on the morning of the 10th inst., he was not able to give his evidence until Saturday, having been a patient in St. Mary's Hospital ever since. The complainant met the prisoner and another person in the Harrow-road, at 2 o'clock on Wednesday morn ing. They were talking so loud that he requested them to lower their voices, as they were disturbing the neigh bourhood. The prisoner said he should speak as he liked, and complainant walked after him - with the view of in d liming him to keep quiet. The prisoner, thereupon, said hat if the complainant conti nue d t o follow him he would give him something for himself. The prisoner walked on a little distance, and then rushing at the complainant struck him on the side of the cheek with a knife, and thereby inflicted a serious wound. After a violent struggle, the prisoner was taken into custody and con veyed to the station. The complainant had been under medical treatment ever since. Prisoner said he was very drunk at the time, and did not know what he was doing. Mr. Long committed him for trial. WORSHIP-STREET.—Matilda Humphries, a mid dle-aged woman of respectable appearance, was charged with assaulting Louisa Thompson, 10 years of age. The complainant, a pretty-looking child, but whose head appeared to be so seriously affected that she re quently lost the chain of her evidence altogether, and was obliged to be assisted by questions from the magis trate, stated that her parents lived in Spring-street, Twig Folly, near Bow, and, having been sent out by her mother on the afternoon of the 16th of September last, to give the baby an airing, she was passing down the street, when the defendant, who only lived two doors off, called her into her house and asked her to go upstairs and fetch down one of her children, called " little Freddy." She went upstairs, but could find no " Freddy," and was about to come out of the room, when a figure dressed up like the Devil, in a long white bedgown and - with a mask on its face, caught hold of her and seized her by the neck. She was so dreadfully terrified that she imme diately lost her senses, and upon coming to herself some time after found one of her legs thrust out of the window, as though she had been trying to escape that way. She again became terrified, and began screaming, upon which the defendant hastened up into the room, and, pulling her away from the window, struck her two severe blows, one on her back and the other on her head, with a broom-handle, while the person who was dressed up like the Devil gaVe her two more stripes across the head with. aßane, after which they forced her downstairs into the street, the defendant increasing her terror by exclaiming that there was the Devil after her: She after that became so ill that she had a succession of fits, and was obliged to be taken by her mother to two hospitals, the London Hospital and that in Gray's-inn lane, but she did not get much better, and her head, where she was struck with the broom-handle, still pained her much. The child was gently cross-examined by Mr. Vann, who was retained for the defence, to elicit the fact whether she was not constitutionally subject to fits, but the little girl said that she had never had a fit before she was so frightened and received the blow on her head, and that she was taken to the hospitals for both affections. This evidence having been partially corroborated by that of a girl named Louisa Lake, who deposed to hearing a child violently screaming at the time in question, Mr. Vann addressed the magistrate on behalf of his client, denying the charge altogether, and contending that it had been preferred in consequence of some former disagreements between the women ; but Mr. Hammill said that it was a very extraordinary case, and one that he regarded in a serious light ; he should therefore order the further hearing of it to be adjourned for a week, and in the meantime the officer must endeavour to procure the attendance of some of the medical gentlemen under whose care the child had been placed, to depose to the condition in which they had found her, and the probable cause of such a sudden affliction. GREENWICH.—AmeIia Elizabeth Burt, aged 30, the wife of a gas-fitter, residing in London-street, Green wich, wasihrought up on remand, charged, on her own confession, with having caused the death of her female infant, aged ten months, by throwing it into the Thames from the Hungerford Suspension-bridge, on Monday night last. - The first witness called was Police-constable Osborne, 254 R, who deposed that on Tuesday morning last, about two o'clock, his attention was attracted to the prisoner wan dering about Burney-street, Greenwich. On goine , up to her, and asking her were she was going, she replied that she did not know ; and on being asked where she came from, shereplied London. In answer to further questions, the prisoner said that she was married, and that her husband was employed as a gas-fitter in the college ; that she had come from Lambeth, a,nithat her name was Burt. She also said that she had a family of three chil dren, but did not know where they were, with the ex ception of her infant, which she said she had given to a boy on Hungerford Suspension -bridge, to throw into the river. He asked her why she had given the child to the boy to throw into the river, when she replied "Th a t she could not k ee p it clean." Witness then took her to the sergeant on the same beat, to whom the prisoner made the same statement. Seeing something concealed beneath her shawl, witness inquired what it was, and then took a child's cloak from her, which she said be longed to the baby. The sergeant then ordered the pri soner to be taken to the station, which was done ; and subsequently witness conveyed the prisoner to the union. Sergeant Pearson, 15 R, stated that on questioning her closely, she , owned to having thrown the child from Hungerford-bridge herself. On the f o ll ow i ng d ay h e re ceived information that the body of a child had been picked up from the Thames off Rotherhithe, which was identified as that belonging to the prisoner. It was stated that Mr. Carter, the coroner for Surrey, concluded an inquiry, on Friday afternoon on the body, at the Albion Tavern, Rotherhithe, when a verdict of " Wilful Murder" was returned. The prisoner was committed to take her trial on the capital charge at the Old Bailey Sessions, commencing this day. PRINCESS'S THEATRE. The following is the Monody, the composition of Mr. Marston, which was recited on Thursday evening, by Mrs. Charles Kean : MONODY. , A pause '• a hush !ye shap es awhile retire That draw your being from the poet's fire; Stand mute ye heroes quickened by his will, ' And bodied by the actor's art ! all still. Kneel with veiled brows, ye forms of sembled woe ! Not now for fabled grief a tear must flow, Not now may fabled greatness thrill the heart, Reality is here/ Let dreams depart. Yes, to each thought, th e h ero w h o ac hi eved Whati song has scarce recorded or conceived Is present now • he on whose s i ng l e m i n d Heaven staked lot of Europe and mankind, Whom like the law that guides the planet's track, Our orb of fame pursued through storm and rack, Rose in the night of nations, in whose sky There flashed alone one meteor prodigy,— Rose with calm march, enkindling shore on shore, And peaks that glory never lit before— Rose to its zenith; when that course was run The world was day, and Britain was the sun ; Our Britain bore him! pride's best claim is read; Our Britain holds him ! sorrow's worst is said. What words may speak that sorrow ? what regret Measure the hero's greatness and our debt? For not to him we give the mere acclaim That greets the conqueror. His was higher fame. The sword that led our squadrons to the fight— Ne'er drawn in vain—was ever drawn for right. Freedom and order were his ends ; his star Was duty, and blest peace the fruit of war ! Aye peace, thrice blest, where peace with conscience joins; Where liberty with stable rule combines; Such was the peace he won, such hallowed rest For England—Oh, be this his long bequest ! BEQUEST! He gives no more. We are his heirs. Oh, word that almost mocks the wealth it bears, Whence comes his like? Twin column of the State, In fight Achilles, Nestor in debate ! Whose mind was virtue's poise, whom no success Might dazzle, no adversity depress, No bribe allure, no artifice betray, No labour tire when duty shewed the way, No danger daunt, and no renown elate. His fate soared high, his soul outsoared his fate. A youth, as fresh as his first laurels were He gave his country; and silver hair Honoured the brows of service, brows that caught, Though near an age, no shade of selfish thought. The earliest beam, that his first pathway crossed, Beheld him whore night found him—AT ISIS POST. Crowd to his bier. Kings, mourn the mighty chief; Ye hold your empires as his valour's fief ! Ye warriors, mourn him whose bright round complete Knew every turn of war—except defeat ! Mourn, Statesmen; honesty was all his art, His mind's clear vision was his upright heart. Mourn, Bard and Painter; Fancy's noblest birth Is best believed, when greatness treads the earth ! Oar Shakspere's self, who peopled every sphere, Seeking a hero, had but copied hare ! Mourn him, ye sons of trade ; for, by that peace He gave, your harbours fill, your stores increase. Mourn him, ye poor; in secret to your claim His bounty spoke, the contrast to his fame ! High into day the palms of his renown Aspired; but neath their shade concealed flowed down His rills of pity. Mourn ! Who mourns him not? A hope undreamed. A memory unforgot. Mourned but living ! Potent though unseen, For thee Time's record chan ges ! "H e has been," Is writ on myriad tombs; "He is," on thine ! Death but promotes thee; all that could decline Of thy most honoured being was—its dust: He never dies who holds his life a trust! Hid from our sight, denied to every sense, The hero-patriot rules in influence. A people free, united, just, an d b rave, Will kneel before the altar of his grave, And vow that, while the seas shall sweep our strand, No foe shall tread, no wrong pollute, the land Whose boast shall be, unto the latest sun, It nursed the fame, it h o ld s th e t om b , of WELLINGTON. ENGLISH AND YANKEE CLIPPERS.—The much-vaunted American clippers having lately been beaten by British built vessels on the voyage from China, it may be of in terest to notice that the former have been equally unsuc cessful in attaining the superiority in the Calcutta trade. The Clyde-built ship City of Edinburgh, Captain James Brown, arrived from Calcutta at Deal on the morning of the 14th inst., having landed letters on the 10th, 93 days after leaving pilot-ground ; while it may be recollected that the American clippers Typhoon and Eagle made passages of 110 and 116 days respectively. The City of Edinburgh, registering 599 tons n.m., carries 908 tons of cargo, while the tonnage carried by the American vessels varies very slightly from their registered tonnage. To show that the quick run of the above vessel is no ex ceptional case, it may be mentioned that the average of seven following voyages made in vessels of the same line by Captain Brown is only 101 days from Calcutta to Great Britain. Again, the English clipper Challenger, from Shanghae, arrived in the Dowers on the 17th ; while the AmeriCan ship Racehorse, from which wonders were expected, and which left Whampoa 12 days before the Challenger started from Shanghae, a port much farther to the northward, and which renders the victory of the Challenger the more conspicuous from the fact of her having to contend for a longer period with an adverse monsoon down the China seas. The Nightingale, an other of the vaunted Yankee clippers, sailed in company with the Challenger, but she has not yet made ' her ap pearance. We are, however, able to give an account of the American ship John Bertram, which was freighted from Shanghae by British merchants with a valuable cargo, amounting to half a million sterling. Sh e was last heard of in Singapore harbour, leaky, Will not this, and other circumstances which we have recorded, convince our mercantile countrymen that, after all, there is nothing like our old English hearts of oak I ARRIVAL OF THE RIPON.—The Oriental Company's steam-packet Ripon, Captain Moresby, has arrived at Southampton, with dates from Alexandria, November sth ; Malta, 9th ; and Gibraltar, 14th. The Ripon brings 45 passengers. Her cargo consists of 21 packages of specie, 52 cases and 92 bales of silk, 2 boxes almonds, 3 boxes tea, 40 boxes figs, 1 case muslin, 3 cases tobacco, 23 bales goats' wool, 29 barrels gum, 1 cask wine, 18 packages elephants' tusks, 1 bale carpets, 50 casks date s , 11 packages tort o i ses h e ll , and 95 packages sundries. The Ripon has brought home two horses as a present from the Imaum of Muscat to her Majesty. THE AMERICAN AND CANADIAN MAILS.—LIVERPOOL, , SATURDAY. —At fifteen minutes past two o'clock this afternoon the Cunard steam-ship Europa, Captain N. Shannon, took her departure from this port with the United States and Canadian mails, which were under the care of Lieutenant Lewis, R.N., Admiralty agent. In addition to a large general cargo of merchandise on freight the Europa carried out about seventy passengers. THE FUNERAL CAR.—Upon the return of the funeral car from St. Paul's, it was taken to Marlborough House, where it now remains. It will, however, in a few days be sent to Chelsea Hospital, where arrangements are being made for its reception, that the public may have an opportunity of seeing it when they go to view the chamber in which the body of the late Duke of Welling ton rested for several days. Although the car was de nuded of many of its trappings on its return, we under stand that when placed in Chelsea Hospital all the embellishments that adorned it will be replaced ; and that, with the exception of the coffin, it will be, in pretty nearly the same condition in which it was when it passed along to St. Paul's on - Thursday last. DARING GAROTTE ROSB.EIIa IN THE STRAND. -011 Sa turday information was received that, as Mr. Chalmers, of 12, Cambridge-street, Golden-square, was passing through Agar-street, Strand, he was attacked by a ma n of herculean frame, who, seizing him by the neck, cut the guard-chain of his watch, and, throwing him violently from him, decamped with his booty towards Covent garden market. Several persons, who witnessed the struggles of Mr. Chalmers, gathered round, and, as soon as he recovered himself sufficiently to explain that he had been robbed, went in pursuit. The robber, however, who was joined by another in the market, got clear away with Nos booty. 'RIL. [1:18T. [BBB. [BEE. COUNTRY MARKETS.
