Mg. C A BDEN eras THE POLICE.—Mr. G. F. Carden barrister, of 11, Carey-street, Lincoln's-inn-fields, attended before Mr. Henry to prefer a charge against police-constable F 25, and another against F 75, hav ing previously suba4itted his complaint to the Com missioners of Police, by whom it was referred to the magistrate for investigation. Mr. Ballantine appeared for the defendants. Mr. Carden, on being sworn, said—On Sunday morning last, at about a quarter to two o'clock, as I was returning to my chambers, at the corner of Hemlock-court, near my door, I saw a number of disorderly boys and girls, who were using foul languege, and creating a great disturbance. I looked in vain for a policeman. In a few minutes afterwards two policemen (the defendants) came walking up the court together, in a very leisurely manner. .1 went to them and said, " Will you tell me how it is you are always two or three together ?" I was answered in a very rude manner by one of them, who said, " If you want to know, go to Bow-street." I think it was 25 who said this. I then said, 4' I shall take your number," and put up my eye-glass (being short-sighted) to see what it was. upon which both of them, and especially 75, dodged between the lamp and themselves so as to shade their numbers and impede me. F 25 then walked towards Carey-street, and I fol lowed him. Oa seeing me he returned again to the court, when I caught his number in the light and took it. He said he would take me into custody for interfering with him in the discharg e of his duties . I said "P erhaps you don't know who lam ? He answered that "He did, too well." He then went towards the persons who were making the noise, and threatened to take them into custody if they did not go away ; but the fact was they bad already gone away. I said " It's very little use to speak to them now, for they are gone :" upon which F 25 "hissed." That is my complaint. Mr. HENRY—What is the charge nfion the sheet ? Mr. Burnaby (Chief Clerk)—They are charged with impeding the complainant in his endeavour to take their numbers, and with refusing to let him see them. The complainant (who, during his examination, appeared to be taking copious notes of his own evi dence) was requested by the Court to desist writing ; but he stated that he could: write and talk at the same time without inconvenience . . By Mr. Ballantine—l did not ask the constables for their numbers, nor to let me see them. I p ro them : ferred seeing 7 myself, and not with other p eo p le s eyes. - VT Yong numbers are sometimes given- I am often out late atnight, certainly. Sometimes lam at I do not know the Conservati ve Cl u b t ill past two. that I make it my rarti,-nlar busines s to in with the police et night. I hnve, often made complaints against them—l have got a nother against a men now, for taki ng me i n t o custody. I w ill not swear th at F 25 did not refer me to the inspector, instead of sayi ng "Go to Bow-street:' I will admit . t if it is any ad like I will als.o admit that 25 vantake to you. but I bare no recollection of did give me his nu i m f b y e o r a , it. To the best of my behef I will sweet. that 75 did nu mber. O f course I compl a i n o f n o t -give. me his the police when I see fit. Mr. Ballantine, having been inform by his 'Wor ship t h a t there was nothing to answer /13 against F 2 5, stated that his object in appearing on of the ca cons t a bles was to beg that S o - a catc4 might be cat T ip- o n-these groondless and' Vexatious proceedin-s of Mr. Carden, by requiring him to pay the ex penses which the officers incurr e d i n their de f ence. • I. CLOMP. Vi . a . S quite clear that th e constables of the metropolis would soon be wholly Teo • au.e to discharge their duties if they were to •be i nterfered with by any ill regulated or injudkioUS person who might see tit to follow th em • • AbOU prying into their faces with an eYe - g/ass, and otherwise impeding and annoying them. Ha tru s t e d, therefore, that his worship would order Mr. Carden to pay the defendants' costs. Mr. Meseta said that he did not feel disposed to make such an order in the present case ; not because he saw any improper conduct on the part of the con - stables, but, on the contrary, because he did not think it a case in which the attendance of counsel was ne cessary. Mr. Ballantine wished it to be known that this application would be urged in future. Mr. Carden (addressing the Learned Counsel) — What a fool you are ! Mr, HENRY could not permit an observation of this hind to be addressed to the Learned Counsel. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STRRET. Mr. Carden—lle:ally I cannot help it. Mr. HiNr.r—But I will not permit it, sir. Mr. Ballantine asked if there was any charge to answer against constable 75 ? Mr. LlEmtv—The case as against F 25 falls to the ground. He is charged with refusing to let the complainant see his number; but he did not ask to see it, and cannot swear that the officer did not give it. What is the charge against 75 ? Mr. Carden—l charge 75 with dodging between the lamp and 25 to prevent my seeing 25's number— with impeding me, in fact. Mr. f3allantine, observing that his time could he more profitably employed elsewhere, retired from the court. In reference to F 75, Mr. Carden also admitted that he did not ask to see his number. Constables were bound to show their numbers without being asked. In addition to which the offl. - ;er was imperti nent to him, telling him be might go to Bow-street. Mr. FlpiEnr—Doubtless you have a right to see a constable's number for younelf, but you did not say, " Let me see it," and, tlwPforp, there i 3 no evidence of any refusal to sho w it. Th e summonses are dis missed. Mr. Carden—Then my oath goes for nothing. SOUTHWARK. William Clark ar.d Margaret, his wife, Were placed at the bar before Mr. A'Beckett, charged with endeavouring to obtain charitable contribution: by moans of a fictitious letter of distress, addressed to r. Apsley Pellatt, M.P. for Southwark. Mr. Pellatt stated that a letter Was left at his pre mises in Holland -street that morning, the bearer having said that he would call again for the answer. Accordingly the prisoner made. his appearance about twelve o'clock, and in'roduced himself as the writer of the epistle referred to, which was to the following effect : "Respected sir,—.p arru p.

She laid down upon the bed, bat did not undress herself. At half past ten o'clock I looked into the roon, and she was asleep. I next saw h er at ten minutes after twelve. I asked her if she had taken any medicine, and she said " Yes." I told ber she ought not to have taken it, from the state I found her i n , and from seeing blood on the floor. She said that she did not know she ought not to have taken it. She asked me to give her a cloth from her box, and I did so and left the room. I told Mrs. Pagden she should not have taken the medicine. She has said nothing to me since. At the order of Mrs. Pagden I went and fetched Mrs. Hazel. Mrs. Mary Wood Hayler, the mother of the un fortunate girl, was here called, and stated that her daughter Sarah was not married, and was seventeen years old on the 18th of April last. She was aware in what state her daughter was, but did not think it was so near, nor did she think her daughter was aware of that fact. Sarah was her daughter by a former husband, named William Judge. This witness (who desired to be sworn) detailed in the moat straight forward and honest manner the steps she had taken to ascertain the real state of her daughter. From what she had learned from the girl it would appear that her confinement was not looked for until November. The mother had accordingly advised her to give Mrs. Pagden notice to leave and return to her home. Mr. Walter Duke, surgeon, was then examined, and demed that between twelve and one o'clock on Sunday, he was sent for to Mr. Pagden's house, and directed to go up into Sarah Judge's bed-room, where he found Mrs. Hazel. There were clots of blood in the room. The girl was lying on the bed, and he said "My girl, w h a t h as occurre d She exclaimed " Oh, my poor mother." He saw at once what had taken place, and on looking about found a flannel at the foot of the bed, in which was the body of a female chili, quite dead. After attending to the removal of the placenta, Mr. Duke proceeded to interrogate the girl, and s h e sa id, " I w as on the chamber, and it came away. I was i n g reat agony , and tore it asunder." He examined the body of the child, and found th e w i n d p i pe an d a ll the vessels completely divided down to the spine. The unfortu nate girl was frantic. Mr - . Duke here objected to state to the jury some revelations made by the girl, holding it as the privi lege of medical men not to reveal any communica tion from a patient made under circumstances of pain and anguish ; but the jury unanimously decided that it was their province to inquire into and hear all that had taken place, and Witness proceeded—l asked what she did it and she said, " with scissors, and they are in a little box." She was in great agony at the time. [A pair of scissors were here produced, witness stating that they had been found in the box pointed out by Sarah Judge.] I said, "I suppose the child was born alive, and it cried.", She said it did not cry, but it strug gled. She gave no mo ti ve f or doing it ; she seemed overwhel me d with rief. To-day I have made an examinati on o f the g b o dy. In the lef t lun g I find positive evidence that the child had breathed. I found that the right lung was near the spine, and not dilat , A, and air might not ha v e reached that lun g; independ en t of what the girl said, I should have stated that the child h a d b reat h ed. lam su re of that. It might not hav e h a d an ex i stence a part from its mother. It was a sma l l but a full-grown child. There can be no doubt that the cause of death was from the wound in the child's throat. Some of the jury here pointed out the latter state ment, and contrasted it with the witness's indecision as to whether the child had lived, when Mr.'Duke qualified his statement by saying that the we an& 'Nati sufficient to cause death, but shortly after adhered to the original one that it had caused In answer to a question as to when he gave in formation of the matter, Mr. Duke replied that he did yesterday (Sunday) to the coroner (Mr. J. G. Shorter), taking with him a magistrate (Mr. F. Ticehurst). although Inspector C amp b2.ll, the summoning officer, said he was requir e d b y M r. Sh o rter to inform the jury that inform a ti on reached him or the police until ten o'clock the matt e r h a ppened at noon, on Sunday, no on Monday. The ju r y teen consulted for a short tim e, a nd re turned a verdi c t o f " Wilf u l murder against Sarah Judge," and the coroner made out his warrant for her commital t o L ewes f or t r i a l. The poor girl, who is at present in too weak a state to be removed, is still at Mr. Pagden's residence. At the close of the inquiry Mr. W. Duke returned and begged of the deputy-coroner to dispense with the necessity of stationing a police-officer at Mr. he f r orthe safety, occasion.a nd offering Pagden's house, to ensure th e safo custody of the pri stoonbeer,mgatvdte a giving h co is n honou r stabe himself l for 114.. Phillips pointed out the impracticability of such an arrangement, and the positive necessity, as the responsibility was great, to have an officer on the spot.—Sussex Advertiser. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY. An accident, attended with fatal consequences to two passengers and injury to several others, oc curred yesterday morning near the Hampton Junction Sttetion on the London and North-Western Railway. The 9.15 A.M. up train left Birmingham at the usual hour yesterday morning and proceeded in due course Hampton J unc ti o n tn ap a l ae la e o e u a t li a e d m ß i l e e r k so s u w t e h ll o e f u tttihneg, in passing through which the ash-pan and a portion of the fire-box fell from the engine on to the line, and coming in contact with the framework of the break-van, separated the latter from the engine and tender, and threw if off the up-line across the down rails. At the same instant, and before the carriages had become station ary, th e 9.15 A B M. down train from Leamington to Birmingham met the up-train, and first coming in contact with the break van on the down rails, next struck the leading second-class carriage, and drove it on the embaeikment, detaching it from the other carriages, and creating a terrible wreck. Two of the passengers in the second-class carriage were killed on the spot, and a third was very seriously injured. Several others, were more or less shake n an d h urt. The driver of the up-train finding his engine and tender detached from the break van, and observing the collision which immediately followed, came on to Coventry, a distance of four miles, as quickly as pos sible, to obtain. assistance. From Coventry telegra phic intellige , ace of the accident was transmitted to Birmingham, and in a very short time afterwards a large number of labourers arrived from both these places and commenced clearing the line. The second-class carriage struck by the engine of the down-train was found to be driven up the em bankment sever al feet, and within its broken timbers were discovered the bodies of the two unfortunate passengers quite dead, and others severely hurt. The passengers had escaped f rom t h e wreck, r a e n m d a w in e i r n e g sitting on various parts of the line. The names of the parties killed are ,Mr. Bedding.. ton, an optician, of Birmirigham, and a youth named Floyd, said to be on his way to college at Oxford. The best assistance that could be afforded was ren dered by Mr. Robinson, the station -master of Bir mingham, by whose directions the parties most in jured were placed in carriages and conveyed to Coven try. The worst case was sent direct to the infirmary at the latter place. The engine of the down train was not much in jured by the collision. Though off the rails and deeply embedded in the permanent way, it remained in an erect position, and the rails were so little dis turbed that it was soon replaced upon the line. The debris having been cleared away, the traffic was not materially interrupted, and several of the passengers came on to London shortly after the accident. It is hoped that beyond the casualties referred to nothing of a serious character remains to be told. The circumstances attending the accident were peculiarly unfortunate. Had the Leamington train been a few seconds earlier or later no serious casualty would have occurred. The similarity of the catastrophe to that which oc curred to the tidal express train near the Headcorn station on the South-Eastern Railway a few days e,iace cannot f a il t o b e remar k e d, and it is b e li eve d left town immediately tney are the on l y acc id ents o f a s i m il ar d escr i p ti on on record.

The former charges against the prisoner having failed, through the defective state of the law with re spect to such offences, the business to-day commenced with a continuation of the case of Mr. J. E. Mayall, the American daguerreotype a rtist, 433, West Strand, of Mr. who charged the prisoner with " disposing" N. M. Power, my , in his usual unceremonious manner. The prisoner had applied to Mr. Mayall, as an artist of celebrity, to take sitters for his " national work," with an understanding that they should be paid for in a certain time, but Mr. Mayall finding that he did not keep faith with him, directed that the clerks should not let him have any more portraits without the money. Prisoner obtained the likeness of Mr. Power by representing that he would return it in a short time or pay for it, and the letter containing that promise concluded with the following disap pointment of the prisoner's hopes : Mr. Collins tried for the Nepsulese Ambassador, but was just too late when he arrived from the north, as his excellency sat elsewhere." The picture was obtained from Mr. Mayall in 1848, and pawned, as he believed, on the sa me day. Mr. Binn s reques t e d perm i s sion of the mag istra te to cross-exa m i ne M r . M a y a ll, and did so with a view of showing that a bill had been made out and sent to prisoner for the portrait in question, but failed in doing so, Mr. Mayall declaring t hat such was not the case, and adding t h a t a lthough he had taken many portraits prisoner had not paid for one of them. Mr. William Smith, 3 nu., pawnbroker, Clark's either on the 20 or 25th of June, 1848, was pawned place, Islington, produc ed the likeness in question, 1848, for 2/. 23. H e could trace the exact date of and four others pawned , but not p recisel y of this ri the r, p one, sone pledges having b ee n long out, sent to auction , turne d unsold. re- 1 They were pawned by the who went by the name of Coleman. Sergeant Smith , of t h e detective p o li ce, produced the pawnbroker's ticket of the pledge, which he took from the prisoner. It was ind orse d "P ower, M.P., M a y o r of Dublin, by Mayall," in, (as witness believed) * rained the officer, who proved pr i ms o r n . e ß es in h n a s n e d r w as r s i - ti e n x g a that he had seen prisoner writ e , from him, and k new handwritin g received letters his handwng well. The officer let out that hi s former business - with the pri soner was on the subject of a lady's picture. Mr. ARNOLD asked if there was any other case ready against th e pr i soner ? Mr. Cu mm ing, ; an inspector who o i3 f t e h n e ga ß ged div a i t sion, called Mra. Eiz Barber, M. 1 Qauclet's• ~ • egent-street. Prisoner went there in 1550, represented himself 83 an artist, and wanted .some patterns o f em i nen t nava l o ffi ce r s , an d i nqu i re d if he could get gentlemen to sit what per centage would be allow,A—:-the likenesses, of course, being for his work. He subsequently borrowed, about April or May, four portraits of ladies to show as specimens, as he wanted some ladies to sit, but never returned them. Smith produced the ticket of the ladies, who bad been in safe keeping at Mr. Wood's, a pawnbroker. They were pawned on the 224 of May, 1851. A person who had been in Mr. Wood's employ ment W 23 called, but stated that he did not take in the pledge. Cumming said that Mr. Wood was out of town, but it would probably be deemed necessary to further remand the case, as Lord Sandys' portrait had been found pawned, and it was a mystery how it had been obtained. His Lordship had expressed his determination to come forward and prosecute the prisoner, in whose possession the duplicate had been found. On an examination of the ticket of the " four ladies," the following endorsement was found in the prisoner's hand-writing " Specimens of Claudees." N... ARNOLD said he should remand the prisoner till Friday. Mr. Binas wished to know whether he had came to any determination with respect to the cages he bad heard ? Mr. Almon]) said be should send Mr. Mayan's case for trial as a larceny, and if in the second case it was satisfactorily shown that he obtained and pawned in May, that also. He, of course, could not say what would be done in the other case mentioned by the police. Prisoner was then remanded. INFANTICIDE AT HASTINGS. About mid-day on Sunday, one of those tragical events which are now, unfortunately, of frequent oc currence, took place wiShin the borough of Hastings. The particulars will be found in the subjoined evi dence, taken at the inquest. Mr. Pagden, a most respectable person, and tenant of the White Rock Brewery, has, for some two months, bad in his service a female, named Sarah Judge, only seventeen years of age. At nine o'clock on Sunday morning she be came unable to do her work, and went upstairs to her bedroom. Shortly after twelve o'clock the unfortu nate girl became exceedingly ill, and, it appears, de livered herself of a female child. When seen by Mrs. Pagden she was undressed. Mrs. Pagden called in a neighbour and sent for Mr. W. Duke, surgeon, both of whom found the body of a female child at the foot of the bed, with a flannel petticoat covered over it. On examination the throat was found to be cut, the whole of the vessels in front of the spine being severed. On being questioned the girl said it was done with a pair of scissors, and pointed out where they might be found, and a pair of scissors were discovered. The inquest was held on the body at the Welling ton Inn yesterday, at two o'clock, before Mr. Ja Phillips, deputy coroner, and a jury, of whom Mr, It. Burchell was foreman. After proceeding to vi ew t h e body, the subjoined evidence wa s ta ken : Harriet, wife of Mr. P . Pagden, was the first wit ness called, who, f rom recent indisposition, was ac companied by Mr. Pagden and a female attendant. She deposed—l have a servant named Sarah Judge, who has been with me two months. She ; is quite young, but Ido not know her age. She came to me from her mother's house, bat she had been previously for nine months living with the late Captain Strode. I had an excellent character with her. She had left Captain Strode's service about six weeks before she came to mine. I had not a suspicion that she was in the family way. At first for a week or ten days I bad a slight suspicion ; from the respectability of her parents, from her general good behaviour, a n d f rom the excellent character I had received, that suspicion aid not last. I did not mention the suspicion to Sarah Judge or her mother. On Saturday she went about he work as usual. I noticed nothing in her. She worked up to nine o'clock on Sunday morning, when another servant came and said the cook was ill, and inquired if she had not better stay at home from church and do her work. I replied in the affirmative. I was not well at the time and was in bed. After I got up, about half•past eleven, I sent tily daughter up to see how Sarah was. She came Philadelphi a Bing down and said she was lying on the bed asleep, and apparently very comfortablo. I had sent her up some medicine, and at . about ten minutes past twelve I sent went upst a ij Ring upstairs to see if this medicine had Sarah Judge. From what she said, I afterw ar d s. piled; this was about half an hour , the door was ing the door I ariaws alone and went to the bedroom door, I threw there not fastened.

She pointed to a piece of flannel lying on the floor at the foot of the bed. I touched, it, and saw it was a child with the back of its head upwards. It appeared to me as though it had been laid down, and the flannel—l think it was a flannel —petticoat thrown over it. I asked her if it was born dead, and she said " Na."

" The undersigned inhabitants of the commune of , department of the Charente, have the honour to a ddress to you the expression o f t h e i r w i s h es . Con sidering that the instability i n h erent i n the e l ective power is opposed to th e security arid continuance of . the action of Gover nment, to the establishment o f public Confid!.nce, to the activity of industry, to operations requiring credit —nay, to the most legiti mate and the most sacred hopes of families,—that it tends to incessantly excite ambition, to keep up party dia. seneions, to encourage all vain and culpable projects on the part of men who are infl uence d b y t h e spirit of domination, and that it is f or t h at reason a perpetua l and ever-increasing cause, not merely of uncertainty, but of exultation for th e evil•dhposed, of affliction for the good, of depravity a n d o f scandal for the undecided i and the weak. That instability, moreover, has for effect to constantly place the Government under the pressure, nite oppressio n to to it, an d who, by doing so, force it always spomoraen iannddru4ore imminent, of f ac tiou s w h os e ob ject is to overthrow all liberty, and particularly to political liberty, without which a people cannot possess dignity, grandeur, or vitality. That the stability of power thus necessary to the general success of affai rs , and to the con fi rmat i on of public morality, i s particularly so to permanent liberty. Considering, moreover, that the, family whose glorious chief, Napoleon Bonaparte, has orga n:z-td the revolution, constituted modern France, and opened the era of our Is, w civilization, is alone capable of representing and guarant,:eine the principles, the laws, and the instituti ons for whichi our fathers combated; that between modern France and the Bonaparte family there has indissoluble established, by v i c t ory as b y misfor tune, an alliance which survives in the recollections,. the hi story, the causes of grief, and the titles of honour of each family; and that the actual heir of the Napoleon family, Louis Napoleon Bona parte, he sufficiently proved by his words, and by his acts, that he is worthy and capable of becoming, with the assistance of God, the continuator and the founder of a new hereditary power; desirous of giving to Europe an trample of prudence, and to leave to those who come after us the lasting benefits of a state of order w hi c h we ourselves have only enjoyed by intervals,. us i ng the ancient rights of this country to,itself, t o su b stitute for the dynastic' which become extinct the new dynasties which Providecce raises up for the necessities of each period; faiteful to the free wishes of our fathers manifested in 1804 and 1815, we have the honour to pray you, aecordieg to the terms of the Constitution o f th e 15 t h J anuary, 1852, to adopt a Senetus Comazdte with the vier, el proposing to the sharc:ges of the nation the re-establish:nem of the here ditary Empire in the person and in the descendants of ' Napoleon. 111., actually Louis Napoleon B ona p ar t e , Pre sident of the Republic."

MARKET IN TELL IGEN CE. (From the London New Price Current, Aug. 3.) SUGAR.—To-day West India was op-rated in with some reluctance, both for grocery and refining purposes, although there were sellers of all sorts rather under Fri day's prices. The public sales of 304 hhds, 10 tres. and 46 brls Bsrbadoes went off heavily at a decline of 6d per cwt; fine yellow selling at 37s to 38s, good mid to good 34s 6d to 36s 64, mid 32s 6d to 345, low 31s to 325, and brown 30s to 30s 64 per cwt; come lots were taken in. DEFINED.-Today refined S ugar was operated in with reluctance for home consumption, and prices de clined; brown lumps selling at 44s 64 to 453, low to fine grocery 454 to 47s per cwt. In crushed Sugar there is little doing for shipping, and at previous rates a desire is evinced to sell all sorts.
