Mr. BAY read a letter from a Mr. Charles Edward Stuart, enclosing 51. as his subscription to the Association. Mr. O'CoNNELL stated that this gentleman was a Scotehman, and a descendant of the unfortunate Charles Edward Stuart, for some time King of Scotland. Mr. GARDINER handed in 131. 2s. 6d. moral force money from St. Paul's Ward.(llear, and laughter.) Mr. O'CoNNELL then rose to make the speech of the day. He said he wished to draw the attention of the Association to the position of Ireland, and to congratu late her on her social and political position.—(Hear, hear.) The first matter he had to allude to was a lament able one, and that was the state of Ireland as regarded the failure of the potato crop. He hoped it would have no bad effect on the people, or drive them to crime in any locality. He would implore of them to commit no violence, and he would promise them food.—(Cheers.) , The Government would feed them, and he would assist the Government ; and, in order to do so, he would move " That it be referred to the committee to draw up and publish a short synopsis of the mode necessary to be adopted to procure relief from the Government in those districts where it was required." .Now, although the Act hid not reached Ireland yet, he could give them an idea of what it was, which he was sure would lie satis factory.—(flear.) It was an unlimited Act ; by it 20,000,0001. of money could be raised, if necessary, .to keep the people from starvation.—(Hear.) It was not, however, to be given as a gift, but was to be advanced as a loan, and to he repaid in work.—(Cheers.) The Bill began by stating that if the Lord-Lieutenant should hear of any district being par ticularly destitute, that he should step forward and put the Act in force. —(Hear, hear.) The fir.t thing to be done was to inform his Excellency—and anybody might inform him, either clergy or laity—and then ho was to perform his duty ; for instance, Lord Eksborough had received 14 letters during the past week, and he had proclaimed sessions to be held under the Bill for their re lief—the first time he (Mr. O'Connell) believed anything good was ever proclaimed for Ireland.—(Cheers.) When these proclamations were issued, the magistrates were to meet, to set work on foot in their baronies, and the funds would be supplied by Government to pay for them ; and if the magistrates refused to do so, the Lord-Lieutenant was enabled to refer to the Board of Works and procure relief.—(Hear.\ By this, employment would be given, which would be well paid for, and which would be un limited. Now, he (Mr. O'Connell) calculated that it would take at least from 10,000,0004 to 13,000,0001. to feed the Irish people that year. That, however, was a subject which would be more properly calculated by the committee which he had moved for to draw up appli cations for relief.—(Hear, hear.) It would, he thought, take 10,000,0001., and it was not to be paid back that year.—(Hear.) The Bill gave twelve months for its repayment—gave a year's credit, so that the poor people would have a chance of a good harvest to pay for it, and the very poor would never have to pay anything at all.—(Hear, hear.) All persons holding tenements under 51., as rated by the poor-law, were to be exempt from repayment; and persons holding tenements above that sum so rated, would be obliged only to repay three-eighths of the money borrowed, whereas the land lords would have to pay the other five-eighths. At this the landlords of course had begun to grumble already, and some of them he bdievedhad a good right to complain,—he alluded to good landlords—but many of them deserved it.—(Cheers.) He (Mr. O'Connell) knew men who were good landlords, and took care of their tenants; and they complained that the tenants of bad landlords should come to them for assistance.— (Hear, hear.) But still, although they had lost by it, they would be , satisfied at bearing a burden which all landlords would be obliged to bear.—(Cheers.) Bad landlords would grumble at paying this money, but he had a remedy for them, and he would tell them what it was.—(Hear, hear.) If they would come to that hall and read his son John's book, and see what England owed Ireland, they would come and join him in look ing for justice, and thereby become good men and good landlords.—(Cheers.) The English people were com plaining at their getting 1,000,000/. for drainage at 31 per cent.; but they did not remembt.r that they got, at the same time, 2,000,000/ The Learned Gentleman having stated that he believed it was the intention of the Government to do all in its power for Ireland, if allowed to do so, said he would support them, but still stated that no concession or no remedy could supply the place of repeal. He then, in conclusion, announced his inten Lion of going to Darrynane in the course of the week, o writing — to the Association every Monday, and prepar ing during his sojourn three Bills to be proposed next session, for the regeneration of Ireland—(Cheers)—and he also stated, that when he departed this world he hoped that the only epitaph engraved on his tombstone would be, " Here lies the man, who obtained repeal;" and if he did not live to see it carried, " Here lies the man who struggled all his life to obtain repeal."—(Loud cheers.) .Mr. RAY then read a communication from the repealers of Manchester, enclosing 17/. Os. 3d., and expressing some very complimentary terms to Mr. O'Connell, and wishes for his happiness. A voice—Amen: Mr. O'CoNziELL—I am very much obliged to that gra tuitous clerk.—(Laughter.) I move, sir, that the letter from Manchester be inserted on the minutes. The resolution was then put and carried. Mr. O'CoNNELL then announced the state of the city registry, showing a majority for repealers of 212. Mr. N. MAHER handed in 151. from Dr. Sinnott, of St. Peter's College, Wexford.—(Cheers.) The com munication enclosing the remittance was ordered to be inserted on the minutes, and the thanks of the Associa tion passed to the writer. A MEMBER, whose name we could not learn, here ad dressed the Association from the rear of the ehair, and occupied no inconsiderable part of the time, if not the attention, of the association. Referring to the lat e de parture of the " Young Ireland " party, he termed them politicallymad who dared to dietate to the Liberator—the greatest man in the world. What very fine boys they were!—(Laughter.) The speaker concluded by express • ing a hope, in the language of the poet, that he should eeu his country— " Great, glorious, and free, " Drat flower of the earth and first gem of the sea." Mr. RAY then read a letter from Mr. Michael Joseph Barry, who requested his name to be struck off the roll, but declined entering into the merits of the late question of physical and moral force. Mr. &CoNNELL said the letter was a most proper one ; it was the letter of a gentleman whom he was sorry to lose, but his name was already off: Mr. RAY was proceeding to read a letter from Mr. D Lane, expressing a similar wish, when Mr. O'CONNELL said—Oh, he's off too ! Mr. STEELE handed in an address to Mr. O'Connell from St. Luke's Ward, London, which was ordered to be inserted on the minutes. _ _ ...., Mr. - O'CONNELL having announced the rent for the week to be 142/. 155., Counsellor Fitzpatrick was called to the chair, when a vote of thanks was passed to Mr. Charles O'Connell, ani the meeting adjourned for a week. THE ALLEGED ROBBERY OP NINETEEN BRASS GUNS FROM WOOLWICH ARSENAL—A considerable time since, nineteen brass howitzers were missing from the stores in the Royal Arsenal, and although a strict inquiry was made at the time, they were not traced. Suspicion, however, fell on two privates named Freeman and Campion, of the Royal Sappers and Miners, who were apprehended, and taken before Mr. Grove, the sit ting magistrate, and underwent a rigid examination, but were ultimately discharged, nothing being discovered to impeach their character. The Board of Ordnance then offered a reward of 1001. for the recovery of the property and apprehension of the thieves. It has since been dis covered that the guns were not stolen or lost, but " that they had been cast into a portion of the Nelson monu ment, and that through an error they were omitted to be entered in the official returns." It is but justice to state that these innocent men have been discharged from the service, after twenty-one years' service, upon a liberal pension, and are now employed in the same esta blishment. THE PONIATOWSKI GEMS.—On Tuesday Mr. Price submitted to public competition, at •the auction rooms, Chancery-lane, Mr. J. Tyrrell's entire collection of proof impressions from the antique gems of the late Prince Stanislaus Poniatowski. They consisted of very beautiful medallion casts of the principal scenes and events throughout the "Iliad," the " Odyssey," and the " /Eneid," together with the principal fabulous feats of the mythological characters of ancient Greece and Rome. The first portion offered related chiefly to the higher divinities, and the whole of the lots of the first-class realised seventy-two guineas. SUPPOSED CASE OP POISONING.-011 Tuesday Mr. Baker resumed and concluded an inquiry at the Cock and Magpie, Worship-street, St. Luke's, on the body of Mrs. Mary Ann Stroud, aged forty-seven, who formerly kept an eating-house in the above street. The evi dence adduced was very lengthy, from which it ap- peared that on Saturday last deceased was suddenly seized with dreadful pains and vomited much. Sus picion arose that she had been poisoned, and a surgeon was sent for, before whose arrival she had expired. Mr. Bowyers, the surgeon, had made a post modem exami. nation, and stated that her death was produced by nature. causes A NUMBER OF PIGEONS DESTROYED BY FIRE.— About twelve on Monday night a tire broke out in the pigeon shed belonging to Mr. Maynard, hoop binder, Ilodden's-place, King-street, Old Gravel-lane, Wapping. The fire burned through the roof and destroyed a large number of valuable pigeons, notwithstanding every effort was made to save thaw. It is not known how the fire originated. The building sustained considerable injury. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A SOLDIER —At the County Office, at Rochester, on Monday, the magistrates were engaged for some time in the mvesUguLiou ut case, at the instance of Colonel Weare, Commandant of the Provisional Battalion, against George Cupitt, a drummer in the 9th Regiment, which it was at first sup posed would end in a charge of forgery, the prisoner having obtained 103. from Barnet Harris, a clothe - desler in Chatham, by means of a forged order, pur portiog to come from Sergeant Goodall, of the 31st Re iment, an invalid in the Military Hospital at Fort I'itt. The prisoner was committed for trial at the next Quarter Sessions at Maidstone on a charge of obtaining money under false pretences. TUE BALLOON ASCENT AND DESCENT.—The Royal Nassau balloon, which on Monday night ascended - with Mr. Green, the veteran aeronaut, and eleven ladies sad gentlemen, from Cremorne Gardens, and by which Ware suspensed two parachutes, in each of which was a monkey, went in a northerly direction. After attaining an a.ltitude of about a mile, the aerial machine got into an easterly current, when it was carried towards Hendon, where it descended in a field in Hazel.green, after a rather boisterous passage. On the separation of the paraeltutt,s there was no apparent oscillation of the bal loon. Thft'e fell in a field the property of Mr. Rubigall, Little Chelsea;• Sir Chiwles lingsbY, Bait, has left Knightsbridge Barracks, i'nr his s cat in Yorkshire. THE LATE AT COUTTS' RE-EXAMINATION OF CAPT. RICHARDSON. MANSION-HOUSE. Yesterday being the day appointed for the re-examina tion of Capt. William Richardson, late chairman of the Tenbnry, Worcester, and Ludlow Railway Company, and who is at present a prisoner, charged with having altered a cheque, dfawn by the company on Coutts' bank for 101, to a sum of 5,0001, and appropriating the proceeds to his own uses, the court was crowded at an early hour. Captain Richardson arrived at the Mansion house, from the Compter Prison, at a quarter-past 11 ; and soon after 12 o'clock (the morning cases having been disposed of by Mr. Alderman Wilson, who had attended an hour earlier fOr that purpose) the Lord Mayor entered, accompanied by Mr. Alderman Gibbs and Mr. Alderman, Wilson, and took his seat on the bench. It will be remembered by our readers that the pri soner had drawn a cheque on Coutts' bank in favour of a messenger of Mr. Howells (a person employed on the Stock Exchange), which, after receiving his own signa ture as chairman of the company, was then sent to two of the directors for their names, and afterwards re turned to the prisoner. The amount in the cheque it was ascertained had been altered to 50001, which sum was paid in five notes at Coutts's ; and the prisoner in a few days after got 3,000 in gold at the Bank of England, for some of the notes received upon the cheque. The prisoner was soon afterwards apprehended for the forgery. Mr. Basile, of Bushe and Mullin's, conducted the prosecution ; and Mr. Clarkson, with Mr. Wolff, from the office of Mr. Flowers, attended for the prisoner. At half-past twelve Captain Richardson entered the bar. He looked very confident. Mr. Skinner, 138 Dover-street, said he was clerk to the Wexford, Waterford, and Wicklow Railway. Captain Richardson is a director of that railway. Witness knew him since October last. He remembered going to the Bank of England for him with a note for a thousand pounds. That was the only note for such an amount he had gone with in the month of July. At the time he re ceived that note, his (witness's) name was written on it. He believed that the note produced was the note received from Captain Richardson. Witness was directed to get it changed, receiving 500 iu notes and 500 sovereigns. He went to the Bank of England and got it thus changed. He delivered that amount to Captain Richardson in the board-room, No. 3, Exchange-buildings. Mr. Frederick William Cruse, clerk in the issue office, Bank of England—He remembered last witness coming to him and getting a thousand pound note changed, he receiving 5001, in notes and 5001. in sove reigns. Mr. George Brown, clerk at the London and County Bank—He knew Captain Richardson, but not previous to the 19th August. On that day prisoner came to the bank, and went into the manager's room. He soon came out again, and asked notes for 8001. in gold. The notes produced are those he gave the prisoner for gold. The prisoner said that the manager had given permission to give notes for the gold. William Abbot, messenger, 26, Cornhill—Knew the prisoner, Captain Richardson, having been employed by him occasionally. On or about the 20th of August the prisoner gave him a bag containing eight hundred sovereigns, and directed him to go to the Bank of Eng land and get notes for it. He received five one hundred pound notes, and six fifties. He (witness) gave the name Captain William Richardson, 3, Royal Exchange buildings. He delivered the notes to Captain Richard. son, whom he met on the north side of the Exchange, coming towards the Bank. Mr. Thomas Ager, clerk in the Bank of England, re ceived gold to the amount of eight hundred sove reigns, for which he gave notes to the same amount. The notes produced were the same that he had given to the porter (the last witness) whom he had seen before. Mr. Archibald Griffiths, clerk in the issue office of the Bank of England—He had made an entry in the book for notes which were exchanged for 2001. in gold. Mr. Clarkson —That will be no evidence. Mr. Bushe—The notes were found in Captain Rich ardson's house. Witness continued—The notes produced were the same. Mr. Fry, one of the solicitors to the Company, was called into the witness box, but he was objected to by Mr. Clarkson, on the ground that the witness was at that time acting as solicitor to the company, of which Mr. Richardson was an integral part. Mr. Clarkson afterwards gave way until the ques tions should be asked. Mr. Bushe—Were you at a meeting of the directors on the 25th August ? Mr. Clarkson—Was Captain Richardson then in the chair ? Witness—He was. Ma. Clarkson—Were you acting throughout as the solicitor for the company ? Witness—Yes, throughout. Mr. Clarkson Then I object to any further questions. Mr. Bushe then replied. Mr. Clarkson rejoined, and it was decided that the witness should not be examined. Mr. Robinson, clerk in the issue department, Bank of England.—On the 20th August, he was applied to to give notes for 2001. in gold, which he did in one note for 100/. and two notes fur 501. The name given was Wm. Richardson. The notes were the same. Mr. Bushe stated that a communication had been re ceived from the manager of the National Bank in Ire land, stating that he could not attend to give evidence until he received tho sanction of the directors. Benjamin Soares Willis, clerk in the office of Smith, Payne, and Cu., proved receiving a letter from Captain Richardson, requesting that they would credit his agent with 300/. Tee letter was dated, Dublin, 3d of July. Mr. Stevenson, 37, Upper Grosven ,r-street, one of the directors of the Tenbury, &c., Railway—Knew Captain Richardson. He attended several of the boafd meetings in June and July. He did not recollect being present when three cheques were drawn fur 10/, one fur 100/, and one for 201. He did not think he was present. He was present at a meeting on the 13th of July. On that day there was no minute regard ing cheques. He found that on the next day (July 15th) he was not present. He was confident he was not pre sent. He knew he was not, because Sir Wm. Young was there, and he (Mr. Stevenson) had not seen him for a twelvemonth. (A letter was handed to witness.) He had written that letter, but there was no address on it. Mr. Pulsford, secretary to the company, was called —The letter produced was addressed to him, and he received it on the 16th of July. He found that on the 15th there were present at a meeting held or the directors, among others Mr. Stevenson and Sir William Young. He put these names down before he left the board-room. Mr. Stevenson carne in very late. He could not say how long he stayed there. On that day he laid no cheques before Mr. Stevenson for signature. On looking up on the 16th he found that Mr. Stevenson was not present. Cross-examined by Mr. Clarkson—He would not swear that Mr. Stevenson was present or not on the 13th. By Mr. Bushe--On the 15th that gentleman appeared to be present by the entry of his name by witness. On the 13th, 15th, and 16th, Captain Richardson was present, and the three cheques contained in the letter received by witness from Mr. Stevenson were placed before the board. He handed the cheque for 1001 to Mr. Whittal, then present. He returned the 20/. cheque himself, and handed the 101. cheque to Captain Richardson. On handing the 101. cheque to Captain Richardson, he said, "Shall I get you cash for this, sir ?" He said, "No ; let it go in its own legiti mate way to the person it is drawn.for."—(The letter from Mr. Stevenson was then read by Mr. Clarkson.) Mr. Pulaford's evidence, taken on a former day, was read over. Examination resumed—He had never seen the cheque for 101. since. Mr. Stevenson recalled—He found the minutes of the 7th of July on the, bock, but he had no recollection of being present. On looking at his memorandums he believed that he was present. On that day he did not sign cheques,neitherdid he on the 13th sign cheques. He received a letter from Mt. Pulsford inclosing three cheques for 201., 10/., and 100/. He received that letter about June or July, and after signing them returned them to Mr. Pulsford. The name Thomas Stevenson to the cheque for 5,000/. was in his handwriting, as were the chorines for 1002 and 201. He never did sign cheques on Messrs. Coutts for amounts not filled up. He recollected a cheque to be changed to No. 11, and he believed it was for a small amount. He could swear positively that one of them was for a small amount. There were signatures to all the cheques before he signed them. Cross-examined by Mr. Clarkson—On his solemn oath he had never signed blank cheques on Coutts for this company. In the month of June, or about that time, Captain Richardson called on him, and had an interview. To the best of his belief Captain Richardson did not hand over the chcque-book, the blank cheque being signed by Mr. W hitmore. Again, he said that he did not at any time sign cheques where the sums were not filled up. He had no recollection of Mr. Richardson's saying " Here are some cheques, the amounts being blank, which , Mr. Whitmore has signed, have you any objection to do the same? He never did sign such cheques. He had frequently refused to sign cheques unless other names were affixed. Mr. Clarkson then addressed the Bench, and contended that this offence did not amount to anything which the ingenuity of Mr. Bushe could bring within the ope rations of the statute of forgery. They had already ascertained that the cheque was signed by the persons empowered to do so. He would not refer to Mr. Steveusons's evidence at that time, because that gentle man had that day sworn that he had not attended a meeting which it was perfectly evident he did attend. Now the only question for the chief magistrate to consider was this—was the cheque which now stood patent for 5,0001. the very cheque which had been drawn for 101. ? He contended that, for the purpose of proving. forgery, the cheque, or instrument itself, should bear some evidence, however slight, that some alteration had been made in it. By the evidence, it appeared that the names as affixed to the cheques were in a different order than as they appeared on the cheque for 5,000/. Mr. Bushe could tell them, no man could tell better, that it was not in the power of any chemist in London to remove what had been before written, and to substi tute what they now found therein; and if such were the case, then he contended that this offence, however dross a fraud it might be deemed, could not be tortured into forgery. If his Lordship was satisfied that the minor offence was only committed, then he would hum bly beg that his client might be admitted to bail in such an amount as his Lordship might think proper. Mr. Bushe said that the prisoner was indebted for the position is which he stood to his own declarations. He himself stated that a forgery had been committed by the alteration of 101. to 5,0004 he repeated dila states ment more than once, and therefore he thought it would be his Lordship's bounden duty to refer the matter under its present aspect to another tribunal. He con tended that if the 10/. cheque had been altered, and the prisoner himself said it was altered, then he thought the argument a logical one that as the mass of evidence pressed against the prisoner, he should be sent fur trial for the graver offence. He should, however, with his Lordship's leave, crave a remand for a week to get addi tional and important evidence from Liverpool and Dublin. Mr. Fry was recalled, and stated, that he had used every effort to ascertain whether Mr. Whitmore could be had to attend before his Lordship, but he could only ascertain generally that he was abroad. His LORDSHIP did not think that Mr. Whitmore's evi dence was necessary, and his decision was, therefore, that the prisoner be committed fur trial at the approach ing sessions. - Mr. Clarkson most earnestly requested that Mr. Whit more should be had, in order that his evidence should be had on the depositions. He did not think it fair to the prisoner that further and new witnesses should be heard when the case came before a jury. Mr. Bushe said that if the reports which appeared in the newspapers did not bring Mr. Whitmore here, he believed that no other power could. Mr. Clarkson said that might possibly induce him to stay away.—(Laughter.) Be repeat e d, th a t it was th e duty of the prosecutors to produce Mr. Whitmore. The case was ultimately remanded till Friday, the 18th instant. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, September 9 (Before Mr. Commissioner PANE.) PROOFS UNDER -ILLEGAL CONTRACTS.-IN RE TIPPLE The bankrupt, who had carried oninisin;s;as — ; woollen-draper and hatter at Norwich, came up to pass his last examination, which was opposed by the as signees, on the ground that the bankrupt's accounts were insufficient. A proof was tendered against the estate to the amoun of 5501. 9s. 3d. under an award. The Learned CommissioNEß, after perusing the award, said that it was one of the strangest documents which had ever come before kim. It appeared that there had been some illegal transactions in adulterating tobacco, and the bankrupt bad received money on account of the claimants in respect thereof. The bankrupt, however, had set up the defence that the contract was founded on an illegal transaction. The - Soucrron said that it was denied that such a plea had been put in. The Learned COMMISSIONER said that he could only go by the award tendered in support of the proof, and a more unintelligible piece of legal jargon could not well be imagined; it went on to say that a general verdict had been entered for the plaintiffs, subject to the reference, but that if the award was entirely for the defendant, then the verdict should be entered for the plaintiffs for only 40s. debt, and is. damages. In the eye of reason and common sense this was an absurdity, and be would not admit a proof on such an award without an expla nation; he did not know whether the absurdity arose from a form, or whether it was erroneous—the award on the face of it appeared to be erroneous. The SOLICITOR to the assignees said it was a most ex traordinary form, and was p,rhaps framed to meet the pleadings, as it was suggested that the bankrupt could be charged with the amount received as agent, notwith standing any illegal eonduct on the part of the plaintiffs. The proof was rejected, and the case adjourned fur the bankrupt to furnish further accounts, his expenses being treble the amo un t o f hi s p ro fi ts; he had however, kept the usual books, and said that he would be able to show that the expenditure arose from losses. The COMMISSIONER said a bankrupt was not required to justify himself on that account at the examination ; it was a subject for inquiry when he applied fur his cer tificate. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Before the Assistant-Judge, . Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, and a Bench of Magistrates.) The September general session of the peace for the counts of Middlesex commenced on Tuesday at Hicks's Hall, Clerkenwell-green. The calendar contained the names of 118 prisoners for trial, of whom 100 were committed charged with felony. Of that number twenty. two prisoners were between the age of 16 and 10 years. A NARROW ESCAPE.—Previous to the opening of the court the prisoners whose trials are expected to come on in the course of the day are conveyed from the prison ran to a cell beneath the court, to which there is a com munication by a private staircase. By some accident the door opening into the dock was left unbolted, and one of a batch of prisoners just placed in the cell, after reconnoitring the position, finding egress easy, and the coast clear, quietly put on his hat, and passing through the court, succeeded in making his escape. The pri soner's name was Rice. He was charged with stealing goods to the value of -10 s., and, it appeared, was au old offender, having been previously convicted on two occa sions. He would doubtless, if again found guilty, have been transported for ten years. JUVENILE OFFENDERS.— William Brown, aged ten years, was indicted f or s t ea li ng a cap, value 2s. 6d., the property of George Massey, the elder. The prisoner pleaded Guilty. The Learned JUDGE briefly referred to the previous sentences which had been pronounced upon this boy for criminal offences of a comparatively trivial character, and which he had committed in all probability from the absence of parental control and instruction, for he was unfortunately an orphan, and appeared neither to have friends nor relatives to interest themselves in his behalf. These were circumstances which led the Court particu larly to cotninisserate the case, and to regret the state of the law which rendered it imperative upon the Bench to consign the child to a prison. There was only one satisfaction which the magistrates of the county expe rienced, that they had done everything which was in their power to render the time passed by such children within the walls of their county gaols of advantage to their intellectual, moral, and religious improvement, but that object it was most difficult to effect without losing sight of the discipline and wholesome fear which should be inseparable from criminal punishment. The truth was, the two objects were incompatible ' • but until th e Legislature p rov id e d asy l ums proper for the reception of this class of children, the Court had no other course to adopt. They had established good schools in their county gaols, but if a proper education, with other ad vantages, were given to all criminal children of tender years incarcerated in them, it was impossible not to see that that would be a premium for the commission of offences, that the gaols would be divested of a wholesome terror, and diverted from the purpose for which they were erected and maintained. The prisoner was sentenced to imprisonment for six calendar months in the Westminster Bridewell. Henry Fackrell, aged 12 years, was indicted for steal ing four sover.-igns and other moneys, the property of Joseph Fackrell. The boy pleaded Guilty. The Learned JUDGE inquired into the circumstances of the case, and finding that the prosecutor was the child's own father, he questioned him as to his method of training the boy. The father said he had educated him, and that he had previously displayed thievish propensities. The mother was living, and he had three children younger and one older than the prisoner, The Bench consulted, after which, The Learned JUDGE said that he was almost inclined whenever a parent thought it necessary to bring his child to that - court, to pass a very severe sentence. Some parents thought it a very the thing to bring their erring children before a magistrate, and rid themselves of the responsibility of their punishment and reformation, for getting that by so doing they stamped the brand of a criminal upon them for life. The Court sentenced the prisoner to confinement with hard labour in the House of Com ction for six calendar months, one month of which was to be spent in solitary confinement. ROBBERY AT Bow Fara.— William Warren was in dicted for stealing a watch, value 3Z, the property of Henry Trower, from his person, upon the 25th of Au gust last. Mr. O'Brien defended the prisoner. The prOsecutor, accompanied by his wife, it appeared, walked into the fair in the evening, and had ni , t been there many minutes when they were surrounded by a gang of ruffians, who hustled the prosecutor, and upon his attempting to get away from them one of their num. ber seized his watch chain, and drawing his w a t c h out of his pocket, twisted it ff the guard. He never lost sight of the prisoner till he gave him into custody. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. The Learned JUDGE said that he was a very notorious character, and had only recently been sentenced to nine months' imprisonment. From the circumstances which bad come to his knowledge, he evidently belonged to a desperate gang. The sentence of the Court was, that he be transported beyond the seas for the term of ten years. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. William Hutton, a shoemaker, who had been re manded from on Tuesday week upon a charge of cutting and wounding Henry Figgius, " whereby his life was endangered," was again brought before Mr. Jardine this morning, and finally examined, the wounded man being so far recovered as to be able to attend and give evi dence. He stated that on the day the ofence was committed (Sunday week) he was so drunk that he could not dis tinctly remember the whole of what occurred. He lodged with the prisoner, and when he came home at night, having been out the whole day, they had a quarrel, which originated in play, and the prisoner stabbed him and ran away. The landlord of the house came to see what was the matter, and met the prisoner 01 the stairs. He brought him back and sent for a policeman, and w it ness was t a k e n to the hospital. The landlord of the house corroborated the latter part of this statement. Policeman F 55 took the prisoner into custody. He found a shoemaker's knife, which he now produced, lying under a chair. It was covered with blood. On the way to the station the prisoner said it served the scoundrel right, and if he had had any fire-arms he would have shot him. He told the inspector "It you had given me the same provocation I would have served you the same." Mr. Stephens, house-surgeen of King's College Hos pital, described the injuries received by the first witness. Ho had five wounds in the chest, one of which was about an inch deep. Another would entirely have killed him. had it not been stopped by the breast-bone. Others went within the eighth of an inch of vital parts. As it was, he was likely to recover in a short time. The prisoner said that when Figgins came home ho said he would have a row, and attempted to provoke him into a quarrel. He (prisoner) was determined not to have any quarrel, but, after being knocked down once, and after submitting to a great deal of abuse, he snatched up the first thing that came to his hand, which happened to be the knife, to defend himself. He would sot have used the knife but that Figgins was. a much strong.r man than he. (The prisoner is a very small man, Figgins is rather larger.) Mr. JARDINE having caused' the evidence and the prisoner's defence to be take n d own i n t h e usua l man ner, committed him for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STII7IET. Joke Jones was placed at the bar, this morning, charged with being drunk and abusing the passers-by and placing the life of his c hild i n danger, in Water loo-place, on Tir slay afternoon. Constable C 42 said his attention was called by a lady, between three and four o'clock, to the defendant. He was drunk, and pushed the people off the pavement, offering to fight some of them; but at one time, as he was about to cross the road, he said to the child in his hand, "You young rascal, I'll shove you under the ' buss.' " He gave the child a push. which very nearly threw him below the wheel of the omnibus passing at the time. Constable A 143 corroborated the last witness, and said complaints had been made to him of the defendant by two ladies successively. The defendant, when asked what he had to say for su using his boy, said, "He is my only child." Mr. MALTBY ordered him to pay 51., or go to prison for two months, fur ill-using his child. Helen Moriarty, a married woman, was placed at the bar on Tuesday morning, charged with stealing thirty• six yares of printed cotton from the shop of Mr. Humphreys, 169, Oxford-street, Mr. Humphreys produced a piece of printed cotton marked with a large ticket "Hoyle's•pattern," and said it was his. It had been brought to his shop on Tues day night, about seven o'clock, by a policeman. It had been safe on a chair at his shop door half an hour before, George Saunders, 221 11, said he met the deft ndant in Duke-street, Manch ester- square, about half- past six, carrying something heavy in her apron, and a child above it. The constable suspected her, and opened the bundle, which contained the piece of print produced. In answer to his questions, she said a woman had given her the cotton in a shop down the road, but could not say what shop. As be saw the ticket still on it he took her to the station-house; but on the way there she said there were three gown pieces in it, and she had paid 9s. for them, and at the station-house she said she had paid ss. for the goods. The defendant was committed to take her trial at the Clerkenwell sessions. LAMBETH. John Pile, a stalwart countryman from Wiltshire, was charged by the driver of cab No. 1,501, with having tendered bad money in payment of his fare. Richard Mason, the driver, stated that he had taken the prisoner from the tunnel at Rotherhithe to Brixton hill, and that on arriving at their destinati on h e re f use d to pay the f are o f 5 5 ., and ultimately tendered a tunnel medal, in place of a sovereign, on Which he carried him to the station. On an inquiry by the MAWSTRATE, the prisoner re plied, with the utmost simplicity, that he had come to London in search of work on Sunday a. ternoon, with 71. in his pocket, 21. of which had been dissipated by Tuesday, when he went to the Thames Tunnel, where he re mained till all the boats were gone. He then took the cab to Brixton-hill, and on putting his hand into his coat pocket, found to his great surprise that l ie h a d on l y a few halfpen ce , i nstea d o several shillings. He then applied to his watch-pocket, where he kept the gold which he had received in change for a 51. no t e i n t h e morning, and t en d ere d w h at he thought to be a sovereign. He had been drinking, and was quite un conscious of what had become of his money. The charge was dismissed, the prisoner haiing given a respectable reference, on the understanding that the fare and the cabman's time should be paid. WORSHIP-STREET. William and Reuben Bray, two muscular labouring men, and Mary Anne Bray, wife of the first -named pri soner, were placed at the bar for final examination, charged with having assaulted and wounded police constab.e Hussey, H 214, whereby his life had been seriously endangered. Several witnesses were examined, from whose evidence it appeared, that between five and six o'clock in the evening of Tuesday, the 26th ult., as police-constable, K 196, was on duty in Manchester-street, Bethnal-green, he observed the three prisoners knocking violently at the doors of several houses, and on requesting them to desist, he was attacked by one of the male prisoners with such ferocity that he telt it necessary to hasten off' for assistance. Having met the constable Hussey in an adjoining street, they both returned to the spot, where the prisoners still kept up the same riotous behaviour, and the second officer was about to seize the most violent of the three, when the prisoner, William Bray, wrested his truncheon from him, and struck him such a violent blow on the bead that he was felled to the ground, and rendered insensible. Finding himself unable to contend against such powerful assailants, the other officer has tened once more to procure further aid, but before he returned several other policemen very opportunely ar rived, and touud the three prisoners beating and kick• ing the officer Hussey, who was lying on the ground completely helpless and covered with blood. After a severe struggle the prisoners were ultimately over powered, but it required the united efforts of nearly a dozen policemen to convey them to the station-house. Mr. Mears, the divisional surgeon, described the na ture of the injuries the officer had received, from the effects of which he had ever since been confined to his bed, and continued for several days in a state of immi nent danger. Mr. Heritage, who appeared for the defence, strongly urged the Magistrate to deal summarily with the case, in consideration of the previous good character of the prisoners, but Mr. BROUGHTON said that the offence was of far too serious a character to be summarily disposed of, and he should commit the two male prisoners to Newgate for the assault, but permit the woman to be discharged. In the course of the day, Mr. Thomas Grueber, soli citor, of Billiter-square, accompanied by two of the churchwardens of Sc. Matthew, Friday-street, who were alleged to have sanctioned the removal of the extensive deposits of broken coffins and human bones from the vaults of the church, in Friday-street, to the field ad joining the Regent's Canal, where they were found pub licly exposed, presented himself in Court, and intimated to the Magistrate, that in consequence of the serious statements which had appeared in the public papers relative to the above transaction, his clients had felt it their duty to come forward at once, and express their readiness to furnish every information on the subject _whedever their attendance was required, and they confi dently expected to put quite a different complexion on the case, and to afford such an explanation as would be considered in every respect satisfactory. Mr. BROUGHTON said that it would be premature at present to offer any observations on the subject, as the investigation would be resumed on Friday next, when every opportunity would be afferded them to offer what ever explanation it was in their power to furnish. WOOLWICH, Captain John Patterson, of the collier brig Volunteer, from Cardiff, appeared to show cause why he refused to pay three of his crew, named Charles Smith, John Chapman, and John Thomson, able seamen, their full wages. Charles Smith, who acted as spokesman for his mess mates, stated that on the 10th of August they shipped on board the Volunteer at Cardiff, for L ;radon and back, at 41. 10s. per month. They signed articles on these terms. As soon as the brig reached London the master (Patterson) discharged them, leaving them to get back to Cardiff in the best way they could. The defendant offered them the wages due to them, but left them to get home to their wives and families as they pleased. On telling the defendant of the agreement entered into he threatened to kick them over the side of the vessel. Captain Patterson produced the articles, and said that it would be seen nothing was mentioned of the voyage back at all, and that there was their mark attached to it; he had only acted in accordance with his orders from the owners. Smith raid the captain read the articles over to them very differently, and they signed their marks (not being able to read and write) with the understanding that the %oyage was from Cardiff to London and back. Tnis was always their practice. They had been five days withou money to purchase food. The defendant at length offered to ship them home, but they refused to go after such treatment. The cap tain said he was bound to act by the magistrate's deci sion, but the owners desired him to discharge them at the end of the voyage. Mr. Tnaiee said that articles ought to be read over in the presence of the crew, then defendant could prove by one or more of them. The magistrate then ordered the residue of the wages to be paid. The balances being paid, the parties withdrew. HAMMERSMITH. John Welham alias Greenwood, George More, George Gardener, James Ga , clener, and John Jackson, alias Smith, five members of a gang of thieves, known as " Greenwood's Westminster Gang," were brought up before Mr. G. Clive, the sitting magistrate, for final examination on the following charge of burglary:— Thomas Sapp deposed that he was one of the park keepers, residing at Hyde-park-gate, Kensington. About five o'clock on the morning of Tuesday, the Ist inst., he left the gate-house and went within the park, by the side of the high road, to unlock the gate by the Half way house. On the way he saw the prisoners Jackson and More by the nursery of Messrs. Gray and Co., on the other side of the high road. The prisoner More had a picture in a gilt frame under each arm, and Jackson was on a little before him. On passing Park-house they turned i n t o t h e mea d ow at the side o the road on which Ennismore-gardens are about to be built, and as he passed he saw them standing behind some pales. Wit ness then went on, and unlocked the gate by the Half way-house, and as he returned he saw the same two pH.- soners together at the end of Park-house-wall, without the pictures. They t h en came out i nto t h e hi g h roa d again, and emit down it until they met the other three prisoners, a distance of about one hun dred and fifty yards, and after a little conversation they turned back, the five together, and walked towards the meadow. Witness was at that time unlocking the small gate opposite the Countess of Blessington's, after which he went home and unlocked the carriage gates. He then went out into the high road, when he saw the five prisoners coming beck from the direction of the meadow along the high road until they came to Gore lane, lead ing to the Brompton-ro a d, d own which they turned,and witness lost sight of them. Witness went immediately in search of a policeman. Witness assisted the police to search in the meadow for the pictures, when they found the two produced under a large mortar board, which was covered over with a number of tiles. Witness had no doubt but they were the two pictures he saw the prisoners More and Jackson carrying. Witness also found one of the handsome china chimney ornaments and the roll of brown holland,produced in Hyde-park, within the rail ings, just under the coping stone. All the prisoners had passed and repassed the spot. Dunbar, T 91, corroborated the evidence of the pre vious witness as to the finding of the pictures. Witness also found the ivory work-box produced, and in it several letters addressed to " Henry Duesbry, Esq., No. 1, Upper Gore, Kensington." Witness accordingly went to Mr. Duesbury's house, which was about 200 yards distant. lie found one of the drawing-room win dows open, and on going into the drawing-room he saw both foot and hand marks on the window-sill, both out . - side and inside. Amos, T 151, deposed to having assisted the two previous witness in searching the meadow, both on the morning of the burglary and on the following day. On the latter, witness found the china standing dish, the chimney ornament, the card case .four D'Oyleys, and f our d amas k ta bl e napkins, produced. The latter have Mr. Duesbury's name on them. Sergeant Skelton, B 4, gave testimony as to the ap prehen ion of the prisoners. Sarah Huiles deposed that she was cook in the ser vice of Mr. Duesbury. The drawing-room windows look into the high road. On the Monday night witness shut the drawing-room doors. It was not the custom to shut the drawing-room window, it being sixteen feet from the ground. • The next morning she found the room had been entered by means of the window. The pictures, china ornaments, and other arti c l es pro d uce d were all the prop er ty of Air. Duesbury, and were of the value of 501. and upwards. The prisoners all denied any knowledge of the rob bery, and behaved with the greatest levity. The police said the prisoners Jackson and Welham had been before convicted, and the others were well-known thieves. The prisoners were fully committed to Newgate for trial. - . --- COMMISSION - OF LUNACY ON MRS. CUMMING. FOURTH DAY. The proceedings in the above singular and extraor dinary case were resumed on Tuesday at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, at which the lady (Mrs. Cumming) was present, as before—Mr. James and Mr. Cole ap pearing as counsel for the commission ; and Mr. Pe tersdorff, with Mr. Parry, on the part of Mrs. Cumming. The tint witness examined was a young lady named Lucia Wrixen, of Quebec -street, Montague-place, who stated, that having seen the reports in the newspapers of the first part of this inquiry, she wrote to her mother, and was consequently brought to town, and introduced to Mr. Dangerfield, solicitor to the commission, by whom she had been subpcenaed. In the spring of 1842 Mrs Cumming called on her mother relative to a character of a servant, and she remained about four hours. Her conversation and conduct appeared very flighty. She not only sat on the sofa, but in every chair in the room. She talked incoherently, frequently losing the thread of her conversation, and running from one subject to another. " She expressed a wish," said the witness, "to make our acquaintance, and in vited us to her house, at Maida Vale. I went with my mother and sister. She called for us, and took us in her carriage. We were shown into the drawing• room, in which I was very much surprised to find there were no chairs except one—an easy chair—and she told us to make ourselves comfortable.—(Laughter.) She left the room, staying away half an hour or more, and we were kept standing all the while. She then returned, and some chairs were brought, and she afterwards brought some tea from her bedroom, and also a plate with shrimps. There were about a dozen shrimps in the plate.—(Laughter.) We were about two hours and a half at tea. She did the honours of the table. She poured out the first cup, and after about an hour and a half (Mrs. Cumming talking all the while) she gave us the second cup.—(Renewed laughter.) She said she kept the hens in her bedroom, and she brought an Legg from her bedroom, saying that she saw all the eggs laid before her, and that each egg cost her half-a-crown. She took a silver salver from the sideboard, and fed the cats upon it, saying that her cats were always fed upon silver. On that occasion she spoke to us of her family, saying that she had an only child, a daughter, seven years of age, who was very beautiful and very accomplished, and was adopted by a colonel and his family. She called upon us about three times afterwards, at our residence in Man chester-street, once to abuse the servant. Her dress was very absurd, her mantilla falling off her shoulders, and her bonnet covered with flowers inside and out. She was not particularly clean ; her hands were dirty, and her nails particularly so. At her house she had a little girl, whom she said was an orphan, who used to tremble in her presence. She said the little girl had some property, and that her aunts were continually bothering her to get her property away. We at length discontinued her acquaintance, and when she called again refused her admission. The witness, in her cross-examination, said that her sole object in coming forward voluntarily was to prove this lady's insanity. With respect to Mrs. Cumming's bonnet, there were not so many flowcrs'in it as there are in Covent-garden, but they were of as many hues and varieties. Her eyes rolled most particularly ; she could not show the jury how, but there was no one in Court whose eyes rolled like her's, nor had she seen any other persons do so who were of sound mind. On this witness departing from the Court, Mrs. Cum ming proposed to kiss her. Dr. Pritchard, one of the commissioners under Lord Ashley's Lunatic Act, stated—l went with another com missioner to examine Mrs. Cumming, at York House, and after examining her I was decidedly of opinion that she was of unsound mind. The witness went on to state the ground of his opinion, which was similar to the pre vious medical testimony. There was nothing material in the other evidence ad duced, and the inquiry was again adjourned. MURDER BY A POACHER. The neighbourhood of Newton Abbot (a town about sixteen miles from Exeter, on the Plymouth road) was on Saturday night the scene of one of those fatal con flicts which have too often resulted from armed men being detected in an illegal act. We hope these la mentable consequence will arause in Devonshire a cru ,ade against the cause of such sad effects—protection to. vermin—and may those traces, which game-laws have entailed upon the nation, be henceforth expunged and obliterated by wiser and more enlightened legislation. On the night of Saturday last, Festus Harris, the gamekeeper, and James Norman, the gardener, of Sir W. P. Carew, of Haceombe House (the High Sheriff), were on the watch, and ascertaining that poachers were on the grounds, they called to their assistance six other persons, amongst whom were Mr. Robert Rendell, of Netherton, and William Setter, of Coombinteignhead. These parties met in a field called Blendfield, between eleven and twelve at night, and surrounded the place where the poachers were. Mr. Rendell and Setter went to the gate of Kiln.fleld, and:whilst there heard the rest call out "gate"—a signal previously arranged . Theype rce i ve d some one runnin e t owar d s t h em, with a gun in his hand, and on approaching within a few paces, discovered it was one Henry Warren. They ran into the field, and Warren raised his gun as if to fire. Mr. Rendell called out, "You'd better not fire;" but immediately Warren fired at Setter, and without taking the gun from his shoulder discharged the other barrel at Mr. Rendell. The shot passed by the side of Mr. Rendell's head, but the aim at Setter was more deadly; he received the whole contents in his body, causing a wound two inches in length, from which the bowels protruded, and from the effects of which the unfortunate man lingered until a quarter past two on Sunday afternoon, when he ex pired, at the house of Mr. Elias Rendell, Buckland, wl2ere he had been taken immediately after the occur rence. On a post mortem examination a number of small size shot were found, lacerating most frightfully the liver, and injuring the bone. The surg,on also fou n d a pi ece of deceased's wat c h c h a i n , which had been carried into the wound. The prisoner was, after a scuffle, secured by Mr. Rendell, and the next day taken before H. Cart wright, Esq., who, having taken the depositions of the various witnesses, and of the dyi ng man, committed the prisoner to take his trial at the next assizes for wilful murder, and also for shooting at Mr. Rendell. He said to Mr. Rendell, when in custody, he was very sorry he had done it, and he wished his gun had broken in pieces when first he took it in his hand. The prisoner's mate, who was out with him, has been also committed to gaol, on the charge of poaching. There was some fear of a rescue by the navvies, but Mr. Flamank, the magistrate's clerk, very wisely kept the men at Newton until Monday morning, when they were sent off to Exeter, and there safely lodged in the county gaol.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] --EXTRAORDINARY CURES OF DROPSY BY HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.—Emma Williams, a servant living with Mrs. Smithers, Oldham-road, Manchester, had lately become of such a size from dropsy as to appear, (to use her own expres sion), as big as a butt. Every usual treatment was tried ,but with out effect; in this sad state she had recourse to Ilelloway's tins, and by them the water was entirely removed from her system, and an effectual cure perfected in about six weeks. These pills were lately tried upon two dropsical patients discharged as Incurable from one of the largest hospitals in London, and they also were both shortly cured by this famous medicine. --Sold by all druggists, and at rro tow ligilowars Lotabatthment, 244, Strand, Loudon.

To-day the stands were rather scantily filled with samples of both Red and White, while the demand was very steady, at fully M on d ay ' s enhanced currencies. Free Foreign Wheat was in good request, and the turn dearer. Bonded parcels were held at is per quarter more money. The sale for Barley was steady, at full prices. Superfine white Malt was in brisk demand at extreme value; in other kinds only a moderate business was transacted. Oats, the supply of which was limited, commanded a ready sale, ai full prices.
