We are sorry again to notice the continued illness of our respected Member, Colonel W. L. Freestun, which it is feared is of a serious natare.—Poole Herald. FRANCE The Government has received the following te legraphic dispatch, dated— " TOULON, SEPT. 28, P.M. " his Highness leaves Toulon to-morrow morning to proceed to Aix. The Prince has assisted at a ball of fered to him by the city. It is impossible to describe the enthusiasm with which he was received at his ar rival and at his departure. The rooms resounded con stantly with cries of Vive l'Empereurr " The French Government has received a dispatch from Brussels, announcing that the Belgian Ministry had resigned, and that the Chambers were pro rogued until the 25th of October. This event is regarded as an immense victory by the French Mi nisters. An article of the Pays will find a responsive feeling in every well-disposed mind, as it is impossible not to utterly reprobate the violent language used against the Head of the French nation in some of the foreign journals. The Pays expresses itself on the subject as follows : " Assuredly the odious crime cannot be ascribed to any of the old parties who divided France. All these parties, it must be said to their honour, have been horrified at it. Some wretched remnants of the secret societies in which a social re-organization prepared by pillage and murder, yielding, perhaps, to the interested suggestions of the men who feel despair at seeing the happiness of France—such, no doubt, will be the only elements which the hand of justice will find in the investigation of the baffled plot. Who, however, dare affirm that certain pamphlets—some of them com posed abroad by writers calling themselves Frenchmen — that certain journals published in neighbouring countries, have been without influence on the minds of the conspi rators of Merseillea? Are the authors of a manifesto published a few days ago in a Belgian journal, and which contained these sanguinary words, Citizens, men, do not discuss, do not vote against, crime— they strke it 1' free from all participation in the crime? The journal which decorates itself with the title of La Nation Beige exceeds all the others in violence. After having shamefully outraged the French people, the clergy, the magistracy, and the army, it does not shrink from a direct provocation to assassination. Here are some textual quotations from that journal:—' At Bourges and Nevers, the peasants who were brought in were so drunk that they did not know what they cried. It is alleged that in their drunkenness they even forgot th.y 1-nne6 or LAI,. yelleO " ViveUt lea Rouges !" instead of " Vive l'Empereur;" All honest people were disgusted at the ignoble spectacle.' On the 15th September, the .Nation Beige published, besides, the following lines, which one would think traced with the point of the knife of Ravaillac:— We are all mutually responsible for humanity; and on that account vie cordially thank all men of generous heart who devote themselves to unmasking and striking despots wherever they may appear. Despots are the common enemy whom we are proud to combat by their side; and we are well convinced that they will not dis arm until the whole world shall be purged from the race of oppressors. Happy shall we be if a single voice re sponds to this appeal.' On the 24th September, the same journal publishes a long piece of verse, which con cluded with these lines:— ' En regardcrtt passer Noir et sa fortune, La France clans ses mains sent fromir le poignard!' No one is ignorant of the grave difficulties which arise for Governments from the liberty of the press; but at no period has liberty, even the most extreme, been con founded with the excesses, the orgies of license. There are, in such a matter, bounds which the most vulgar morality, the 'most elementary notions of international law do not permit to be disregarded. Is it enough for a man to be the elect of a great people for him to be placed out of the pale of humanity? Is it for having saved Europe from menacing anarchy that he should be exposed to th e most o di ous , the most revolting provo cations?" ITALY. The Official Journal of the Two Sicilies publishes a Ministerial decree, directing that a grand exhibition of the produce of the manufactures of the kingdom shall take place, and be opeced, on the 30th of May, 1853, in the edifice of Monteoliveto, at Naples. It is to last a week, unless further prolonged by Royal decree. Besides manufactured articles, raw materials produced in the country, and all the implements used in mining, agriculture, and other pursuits of the kind will be admitted. A letter from Rome of the 13th, in the Augsburg Gazette, states that the POPE has pardoned one BUSCHETTA, a friend of the well-known CICEHUAC CHIO, who took such an active part as a popular leader in the events of 1848-49 at Rome. This BUSCHETTA had been condemned to fifteen years' hard labour for the part he took in the disturbances of that time; but has obtained his pardon through the instrumentality of his confessor, who has declared him to be quite changed, and converted to the cause of order. We have already mentioned that his Holiness the POPE had taken a pleasure trip to sea from Porto d'Anzio. 'We 'find the following ridiculous motive attributed to this little voyage in the o . fficial Savoy Gazette of the 2 7th, and we give it, rather for the entertainment of our readers, than as in the least worthy of credit : " According to a letter from Genoa, Pins IX. had actually attempte d to make his escape from Porto d'Anzio, and was only prevented from effecting his de sign by the impcis sibility of getting out of the reach of Captain 011ivier's. steamer, which accompanied him under the pretext of showing him respect. I will quote the facts, leaving it to your readers to make the proper deductions, and shall afterwards tell you what induces me to give it some credence. On the 14th General Cotte, the Marqujs de Turgot, and M. de Rayneval had waited upon the Pope at Castel Gandolfo. According to the letter in question, General Cotte, aided by the two dii.lomatists, had then fulfilled a deli cate mission, thlit of persuading the Holy Father to proceed to Paris in order to crown Prince Louis Napoleon. The timid councillors of the Pope at once advised him to take to flight, as he had done in the winter of 1.848-49. They showed him, looming in the future, an r onourable detention at Fontainebleau, and the Roman Skates turned into an apanage for the future King of Ri mie, the issue of the marriage of Na poleon III.; in sh ort, the repetition of what had hap pened under the Empire. With his usual weakness, Pius IX. on the Ii alowing day directed his steps to Porto d'Anzio, where a Pontifical steamer was in readiness to convey him to Naples. This resolution had only been taken in consequence of the difficulty of fleeing to Bologna, under th e protection of Austr i a; f or C aste l Gandolfo is too ;far from Bologna ; so that it was much easier to go to Naples. B ut at Porto d'Anzio it ap peared that another steamer, which plies on the Tiber for the service of the French division, and is commanded by Capt. 011ivier, bad accompanied the Pontifical one. How came this steamer:, which ought to have stayed at Fiumi cino, its usual stat ion, to be at Porto d'Anzio? It is sup posed that Count Rayneval had some misgivings as to the Holy Father's ?Jill eggiatura at Castel Gandolfo, and taken precautions in consequence. The Pope and hi s su i te embarked under pretence of taking a mere trip, but the French steamer insisted upon accompanying the Holy Father, as an esoort of honour. Hopes were entertained that she might b e outstripped, so as to reach Ga e t a or Naples in safety,. but Captain 011ivier stuck close to the Pontifical steamer, so that the idea of flight was given up. The only thing which makes me give some credence to this hale is the speech of the Prince Presi• dent at Lyons on the erection of the statue of the Em peror. On this solemn occasion Prince Louis Napoleon did not remain 'within the limits of mere official lan guage; his harangue is a masterpiece—it was evidently meditated, and deeply too; there is nothing superfluous in it—everything has its signification. Now, in this noble speech the Prince assimilates his elevation as much as possible 'to that of his uncle. He alludes to re ligious consecration by the chief of Christianity. It may, therefore, very well be, that General Cotte had re ceived such a mission, and that the counsellors of the Pope had advised him to take to flight." CIRCASSIA. The St. Peters;surgh Journal of the 18th contains the following : " The last accounts received from the Caucasus in form us that the sv inter campaign of the Russians con siderably diminished the influence of Shamyl in the Great Tachetschn ~ and forced him to place his par tisans in the village of Gurdali, at the foot of the Katschkalikowski, and among the Argounaki, who are the most bitto r enemies of Russia, and constantly make incur s i ons o:a its territory. Lieutenant-General Prince Boriati na ki i n consequence undertook an ex pedition against 6ifferent points of the Tschetschna. For this purpose Colonel Prince Woronzow, on the 23d, occupied, with three battalions, four detach ments of Cossacks, and six pieces of artillery, the defiles of M isianski. six o'clock i n t h e morn i ng P r i nce Boriatinaki arrived with a strong body of Cossacks; he marched with all his columns as far as the defiles of Schalinski, where he established a camp near Schawdon. General Molden joined the principal column with five bat talions and six pieces of artillery. On the same day Gens. Molder], Bartzgowert, and Schandon took the direction of Basso, and Grementschouk ; and Colonel Baklanski with four battalions, a body of Cossacks, and seven pieces of artillery occupied the mountain of Kat 9c hk a lik owski, in order to des tro y the village of Gurdali. The Cossacks, under Colonel Saehodolski, surrounded the place, while Baron Nickolay attacked and eventually entered it. After a sanguinary combat the Circassians were all put to the sword, with the exception of 52, who gave up their arms. The cattle were all removed and the village set fire to. On the 24th Prince Boriatinaki advanced along the Black Mountains, but returned to Frosnau on the fol lowing day. The Circassians have lost a great quan tity of hay and corn, and have had a number of men killed and 195 taken prisoners. The Russians have had 2 officers and 45 soldiers killed, and 10 officers and 254 soldiers wounded. Prince Woronzaw advanced towards the defiles of A rgousk with a strong force of infantry and cavalry, and four pieces of artillery. In the night of the 26th he surpr i se d and b urnt three villages. Tho Circassians had 32 men kill ed an d severa l wounded; the Russians 1 cfficts -, r and 9 soldiers killed, and 6 officer s an d 51 soldiers wounded. THE IV EATHEE,.--SHIELDS, TIIESDAY.—During the last forty-eight hours a violent gale from the north-east, with a very heavy and continuous fall of rain, has pre vailed on the coast, and impeded navigation considerably, as a strong sea rolls at the bar. The weather seems broken up, as last week we had heavy gales blowing from the same direction, which drove a number of vessels ashore along the coast. Some oats are still out, and this weather is fatal to the potato; but, generally speaking, th e corn cro p s in Northumberland are well housed, and the samples that have been shown iLI the local markets have been exceed- i ingly sound. SOMERSETSIBRE ARCILEOLOGICAL AND NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY. On Wednesday we gave a notice of the opening of the faurth session of the above society at Bath, and of the proceedings up to the close of the afternoon meeting. I❑ the evening an ordinary was held at the York House Hotel, when about seventy ladies and gentle men sat down to a profuse repast, under the presidency of W. H. G. Langton, Esq., M.P., of Newton Park. Amongst the gentlemen present were W. Miles, Esq., M.P.; W. Pinney, Esq., M.P.; W. H. Langton, Esq., M.P.; Hon. P. P. Bouverie; T. T. Knyfton, Esq.; W. Long, Esq., Mayor of Bath ; F. H. Dick enson, Esq.; J. H. Markland, Esq., D.C.L., J. H. Smith Pigott, Esq.; J. Britton, Esq., F.S.A.; W. R. Sheppard, Esq., of Frome; Dr. Falconer; Revs. F. Warre, C. Paul, H. M. Scartb, W. R. Crotch, &c. &c. Upon the removal of the cloth, the usual loyal toasts were drank, followed by the " Health of the Bishop and Clergy of the diocese." The Rev. F. WARES, in responding, referred to the opportunities the clergy have for investigating archaeological subjects, and said that he hoped by their aid such materials would ere long be collected and arranged as would enable the society to bring out a cOmplate county history, The Rev. H. M. SCARTH also suggested that clergymen should keep private notes of all archaeo logical matters coming under their attention—that each clergyman should collect all the historical docu ments of his parish, and the traditions in the pos session of the oldest inhabitants. It was a holy rule in the early Church to preserve the ancient customs, and it was with grief he saw many interesting relics passing away from them. He said not only preserve your ancient customs, but the ancient historical do cuments, and the relics of former times, He rejoiced to see in France a spirit reviving, which regarded ar chmological matters in a proper light, and from a similar spirit in Normandy many precious monuments had been preserved. In France, during the last 40 or 50 years, nearly all the early church edifices had been destroyed, and therefore the spirit now mani fested was the more encouraging as promising the preservation of the few arcient htlildingc that romain. No country in the world, however, could produce such parish churches as Great Britain, and therefore all, bat especially the clergy, would do well to pre serve them, and let not a stone or a brick be injured. The health of the county Members was responded to by Mr. W. MILES. After which the " Health of the Mayor and Ma gistrates of Bath," the " Health of the Chairman," the " Mayor and Magistrates of Bristol," and several other toasts were drank and responded to, and the company then proceeded to the Assembly Rooms to the evening meeting for the reception of papers. Mr. W. BAKER read a paper on the Williams Mu seum, recently purchased by the society. The paper gave a resume of the valuable contents of this exten sive and interesting collection, and stated that since it came into the possessio❑ of the society many va luable collections of arcbasological and natural his tory specimens have been deposited with the society. Amongst the collection comprising the Williams Museum are thousands of bones of animals from the caverns on the Mendip Hills. One of the bones ex hibited was larger than that of any mammoth bone in either of the London museums. As showing, also, the valuable character of the museum which has come into the possession of the society, it was stated that the authorities of the British Museum, the So ciety of Practical Geology, the Cambridge Society, and several private gentlemen, have applied to pur chase, and are most anxious to obtain, the duplicate specimens in the hands of this society. An interesting paper on the geology of the neigh bourhood of Ilcainster was read by Mr. Moore, whose researches have been most successful in this branch of science, as he has discovered a large number of new species of animals, fish, vegetables, &c., amongst his antediluvian remains. A paper on the fungi of Somersetsbire by C. E. Broome, EN., was also read by the Rev. W. R. Crotch, who addressed the meeting in addition upon British fungi in general. Many persons were poi soned, he said, from mistaking some species of mush rooms, whilst many of the best, most nutritious, and desirable species of fungi were passed by as noxious, because people were ignorant of their qualities. He urged, therefore, more general study of this subject, but advised his auditors not to eat fungi un'.ess they were acquainted with the species ; reminding them also that some sorts which are safe in France and Italy are destructive to life here. Yesterday (Wednesday) a meeting was again held for the reception of papers, at ten o'clock in the morn ing, when, in the absence of the President, the chair was taken by J. H. Markland, Esq., D.C.L., Mr. E. A. FREEMAN read a paper " Oa the perpen dicular style as exhibited in the churches of Somer set," which was illustrated by drawings of the whole of the sacred edifices treated of. A paper was also read by Mr. H. G. To➢IKIN3, being his " Remarks on some Cornish Hill Castles, as compared with the an cient fortress on Westorn Hill." Votes of thanks were then given to the authors of each paper, after which the meeting was adjourned. A party was then formed for an excursion to Hinton Abbey, Farleigh Chapel (where the Rev. Mr. JACK SON read a paper), and the church and the George Inn at Norton St. Philips. At Farleigh, an excellent collation was kindly provided for the visitors by the Rev. Mr. Clark ; and the excursion altogether was a very interesting one, and the weather favourable. RASCALITY OF THE RUSSIAN POLICE. A silver tablespoon was stolen out of my kitchen. I had my suspicions, stated the case to the police, and on the very same day the thief was discovered. It was a journeyman baker, who brought us bread, who had taken the spoon and sold it to a stall-keeper on the Schukingdwor. The thief was duly punished, the receiver's shop was closed, and my spoon was taken to the police-station. It was worth a ducat at most ; but it was a christening gift to my child, and on that account I valued it, and spared no pains to recover it. Pains it certainly cost me. I was referred from one person to another, and at last the commissary, in whose custody the spoon was, asked me frankly why I was so persevering about such a trifle. I had spent more money in coaches, he said, than the thing was worth, and I was likely to spend twice as much more before recovering it, for there were still many obstacles to its being given up. " To-day," replied I, "all those obstacles will be surmounted, and, to-morrow, I shall have the spoon." " The devil you will," quoth the guardian of public order and security. " May I beg to know how you propose to manage that ?" " Very easily," I replied ; and to show you how certain I am of what I advance, I now make you a present of the spoon, and am nevertheless persuaded that to-morrow you your self will call and return it to me." The schasneprice laughed till be was fain to hold his sides. " Capital !" h e cr i e d ; " b e f ore y ou r complaint comes round to me, a fortnight or more will elapse." " Yes," I replied, also laughing, " were I such a fool as to make a complaint, which, moreover, I have now no right to do, having made you a present of the spoon. But it so happens that I dine to-day with Perowsky ; and over the dessert I will propose to the Minister this curious riddle, How, in St. Petersburgh, can one dispose of one's property, when it lies in the hands of the police ?' The solution of the riddle, that one must make a present of the property, will, perhaps, astonish him. What is pretty certain, however, is, that, if you will breakfast with me to-morrow, you shall eat your soup with the spoon in question. Whether you breakfast with me in uniform or out of uniform depends upon the im pression which the solution of my riddle may make upon Perowsky." Again the man in office laughed ; but this time the laughter was somewhat forced ; and his arms, which he had akimbo, fell by his sides. " Well, well!" he said, with constrained joviality, " the joke has lasted long enough. Here is your spoon. When shall I breakfast with you ?" " When you bring me back my silver spoon. Until then, your most obedient servant." And I left him. I did not dine with Perowsky. I never saw that Minister in my life; but his name is a tali sman o f m i ght against faithless officials, as it also is the terror of thieves and sharpers. By adapting it to a harmless stratagem, I recovered my property. Such is the Russian police.—Jerrmann's Pictures from Si Petersburgh. RAPID IMPROVEMENTS. " Can you tell me where is Victoria Park?" This is not an unfrequent question to the footpad in the neigh bourhood of Hackney-road and Bethnal-green. The East-enders have good cause of complaint for the delay its forming the approaches to this park. Do, pray, Mr. Editor, use your pen to help us to get these approaches formed. The Consumption Hospital is in a forward state, but if you want to get to it, the route is circuitous, unless you are prepared to plunge through Spitalfields and Bethnal-green! The extension of Hackney -road has been promised for seven years past, at least. The new street from London Docks to Shoreditch has been in hand for ten years: one would suppose the property near Shoreditch was very valuable, from the protracted delay that has taken place in completing the outlet. Whenever the street is completed it will be a great ad vantage to the east-end of the metropolis. The build ings recently set up on the south-east corner of Red Lion-street, nart of the main street, are not very credit able to the Office of Woods, The buildings at the op posite corner of Commercial-street promised very dif ferently, and the parties who set up these buildings have very reasonable ground of complaint. Among the . various statistics that the Office of Woods publish in their annual accounts, they do not furnish information as to interest of money or lost rents on land lying vacant year after year: this would be a sorry and a large item!--Correspondent of the Builder.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. WORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday Thomas Johnson, a well-dressed, power ful young man, was charged before Mr. D'Eyncourt with the following scandalous outrage. Bingley, a constable of the R division, stated that while on duty in the Old Ford-road, Bow, at half-past one o❑ the morning of the 27th ult., he heard a great disturbance opposite a public-house there called the City of Paris, and on hastening up to ascertain the cause of it found the prisoner and two companions of his quarrelling with another person, and he advised them to go away. They at that time did so, but in two or three minutes after two labourers came up, one without any covering on his head, and asked him if he had seen three men go by with his cap. He told them that he had, and the men hurried after the prisoner and his companions, who, as soon as they reached them, turned upon them and repeatedly struck them. Witness laid hold of one of the prisoner 'a com panions, but the instant he had done so the prisoner commenced a furious attack upon him with a thick stick, and beat him over the head with it with such violence that, as the witness expressed it, his hat was completely cut to pieces. Witness seized hold of the stick to save his head, and succeeded in getting out his rattle to spring it for assistance; but the rattle was immediately wrenched out of his hand and broken to bits ; and while engaged in a struggle with the prisoner one of his companions stooped down in the road, and grasping up a brick, hurled it at him with such force that it struck him heavily on the back of his head, and the blood gushed out of his mouth and one of his ears. The two other men instantly took to their heels and escaped ; but the noise of the contest attracted the notice of a second officer, who came up at the moment, and the prisoner was at length secured and lodged in the station. The constable added that he had been unfit for duty for two days in consequence of the in juries he had sustained, and was now only on such light duty as he was fit for. George Faulkner, one of the labourers referred to, corroborated the constable's evidence in all its leading particulars, but somewhat aggravated the case by stating that he had distinctly seen two brickbats hurled at the officer, and that both of them struck him on the heed. When asked if he wished to offer any answer to the charge, the defendant coolly observed that he believed he had behaved very badly to the officer, but that he was very much intoxicated at the time, and now very much regretted his conduct. Mr. D ' EYNCOURT at first directed the depositions to be taken by Mr. Vine, the chief clerk, with the intention of committing the defendant and his com panions for trial for a joint and aggravated assault ; but upon its being intimated by the officer, that though he had made every exertion to apprehend the two men who had escaped, he had been unable to find any trace of them, and that there was no probability of his being able to do so, he at once sentenced the defendant to pay a penalty of 3/. for his share in the out rage, or in default to stand committed for one month to the House of Correction. CL ERKENW ELL. Mrs. Susan Keal, charged with having assaulted Mary Margaret Ann Junes, by which her death was caused, appeared before Mr. TYRWHITT, pursuant to her bail, to answer that charge. The case excited considerable interest, and the hus band of the defendant, with numerous friends, was present, Mr. Shaw, solicitor, attended for the defence. Mr. Inspector Tarlton ' N division, said, that a jury had assembled a t St. Bartholomew's Hospital to inquire relative to the cause of the death of the de ceased, but the inquiry was adjourned in order that the depositions taken at this court might be forwarded to the coroner, to be read over to the jury. Mr. TYRWHITT acceded to this, and ordered that the defendant should renew her bail to appear to answer the charge on a future day. Bail was then put in, and Mrs. Beal left the court with hee friends. Mr. Charles Wood, solicitor, was re-examined, charged with obtaining money under false pretences. Mr. Lewis attended for the prosecution, and said that the circumstances connected with the case on the part of the prisoner were serious and cruel. He had been admitted as an attorney in 1832, but was not certificated. A young man named (1-reigson, a me dical student, was committed for trial on a charge of rape, when the prisoner, who represented himself as an attorney, undertook his defence, and at various times obtained sums of m one y t o the amount *f up wards of 51. to fee counsel, &c., but on the case being called on, Mr. Ballantyne applied to the Court for its postponement, in consequence of not having received a brief or the retaining fee. The prisoner having absconded with the money he had received, he was eventually apprehended by Charles Bow, 383, S division. Witnesses having been called to prove the facts, the prisoner was committed for trial, but he will be brought up again in order to complete the depo sitions. twelve months, while his wages were only 501. per annum. The prisoner, who seemed to treat the affair with the utmost nonchalance, was fully committed for trial. SWEARING IN THE NE W SHERIFFS. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. Yesterday morning the Sheriffs for the city of London and Middlesex, Alderman Carter and Mr. Croll, were presented to the Cursitor Baron of the Court of Exchequer, Mr. Bankes, for the approval of her Majesty, with the accustomed formalities and ceremonies, in the Court of Exchequer, Westminster Hall. The Sheriffs having entertained the'Livery of their respective companies and the members of the Court of Aldermen at breakfast at the London Tavern, pro ceeded to the Guildh a ll, w h ere th e procession was joined by the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor in his state carriage, accompanied by the S wordbearer and Town crier with the city mace, the High Bailiff o f South wark, and his ch a pl a i n , followed by the Recorde r , Common Sergeant, th e T own - c l er k, an d other officers of the Corporation ; the Sheriffs and Under-Sheriffs, in their state carriages ; and the members of the Li very of the Clockmakers' and Spectaclemakers' Com pany, with their banners and streamers, accompanied by two military bands. The civic procession afterwards took water at Black friars-bridge, and proceeded in the City barge to Westminster ; they landed at a temporary pier erected near the Houses of Parliament, and afterwards pro ceeded to the Court of Exchequer, in Westminster hall —the Lord Mayor, the Recorder, with the new Sheriffs, Alderman Carter, citizen and clockmaker, and Mr. Croll ; on either side the members of the Court of Aldermen, according to their seniority, taking their stations in the bar appropriated to the Queen's counsel ; the other members of the corpora tion, as also the late Sheriffs, remaining on the Poor of the court. Tne arrival of the Lord Mayor and Sheriffs having been announced, Mr. Cursitor Baron Bankes entered the court in his scarlet robes, and took his seat on the bench. The usual proclamation having been made, The RECORDER proceeded to present the Sheriffs to the Court as having been elected by the citizens of London, by virtue of their ancient privileges, to fill the office of Sheriffs of London and Middlesex, and in doing so entered into a brief history of their early career, and the means by which they had attained the proud position of being elected to fill the high and important office, and submitted their desire that the choice of the citizens of London should, through the Learned Cursitor Baron, receive the approbation of her Majesty. The Learned CURSITOR BARoN:in a lengthened and complimentary speech, expressed the entire satis faction and approval of her Majesty of the gentlemen selected by the citizens to fill the office of Sheriff. The customary oaths having been administered, The RECORDER then read the new Sheriffs' warrant of attorney to receive all writs and processes, which he presented to the Queen's Remembrancer, by whom it was again read., and prayed that it might be recorded. The appearance of the late Sheriffs and Under- Sheriffs, with their accounts, having also been re corded, The senior Alderman below the chair proceeded to do suit and service for a piece of ground called the Moors, in the county of Salop, by cutting with a hatchet a bundle of st icks, and also one with a bill hook, and did the like office by counting 61 hobnails and 6 horseshoes for a 'tenement called the Forge, in the parish of St. Clement Danes. The RECORDER then., in the name of the Sheriffs, invited the Cursitor Ba ron to their inaugural banquet in the evening, after w'oich the procession returned to the City in the same o rder. THE BANQUET. The banquet was given at the London Tavern. An unusually large nucober of invitations had been issued and covers were laid for 300 gentlemen—more than can be quite conveniently accommodated, even in the large room of this •great banqueting house. Mea sures which have rece iitly been taken for the better ventilation of the apartment contributed much to the comfort of such a numerous assembly. The new Sheriffs, of course, presided. Among their guests were the Solicitor-General, M.P., Lord D. Stuart, .21. P., the Lord Mayor elect, M.P., Mr. Masterman, M.P. Aldermen Sir J. Key, Bart., Sir R. W. Carden, Sicinter, Moon, Finnis, and Law rence, the Q ueen ' s .Aemembrancer, the Governor and Deputy. Govern' r of the Bank, Mr. E. James, Q. C., Mr. e ex-Sheriff Cotterill, Mr. ex- Sheriff Swift, M.P.,. the Ottoman Consul, Sir G. E. Hodgkinson, C q)lonel Morse Cooper, Captain Hankey, R. N., Captae.n Embleton, Captain Haviside, Captain Williams, the Mayor of Southampton, Pro fessor Brande, Profess cir Graham, the Master of the Clockmakers' Company , the Master of the Spectacle makers' Company, the Rev. Dr. Mortimer, the Rev. Mr. Christmas, the Re :'. T. Binney, Mr. W. Hawes, Mr. Dillon, Mr. Du n can Dunbar, Mr. Wyld, Mr. D. Nicoll, the Chair= t n of the various committees of the Common Council, :Ind other gentlemen connected with the city. Grace was sung aft er dinner by a party of vo calists, under the direr t ion of Mr. Hopkins, organist of the Temple Church, and the loving cup was sent round, Mr. Harker pr. )c laiming welcome. The usual loyal toes is were then given, and duly honoured, and were followed by that of " Church and State," which was ack elowledged by the Rev. Mr. CHRISTMAS. The toast of " The el army and Navy, and the im mortal memory of the l ;Hike) of Wellington, was drunk in solemn silence. It was acknowledged by Colonel COOPER and Captain B ANKEY. The toast of " The L ord Mayor, and prosperity to the city of London," fu Mr. DILLON, who me es called upon to speak to it, made some appropriato remarks, in the course of which he took occasion to congratulate his fellow citizens that civic holm ers were not confined to any creed or party, but v e re open to every man who showed himself worthy of them. The next toast was t hat of "Her Majesty's Mi nisters." The SOLICITOR—GENE PAL said he had much grati fication in returning tha aks for the honour conferred upon her Majesty's Min a iters by that large assembly, but regretted that he sr as the only member of the Ministry present to mak e the acknowledgment. Du ties of a public nature had called some to a distant part of the kingdom, an , I others were obliged, after their toils and anxieties 'to seek the repose necessary to prepare them for the arduous duties yet before them.—(Cries of "He Le, hear," and cheers.) He should c ons id er it r i g ht to conform to the salutary rule of abstaining, upon • this convivial occasion, from any reference to those q luestions upon which, in this free country, there mu st be difference of opinion.— (Hear, hear.) But Ito felt that he might claim credit, on behalf of the r linistry, for a sincere and firm determination to do the it best to perform the duty committed to them. It was in no ordinary times and under no ordinary difficu . 1 ties that the present Govern ment had accepted the ti a ,k which her Majesty had been pleased to intrust to them ; but they had entered upon it, and they were firmly determined to go on with the performance c f their duty, using their utmost exertions and bestowing the utmost power of intellect which. Providence had bestowed upon them to promote ti .ZE prosperity of the country. —(Cheers.) It' this cre d it might be claimed any where, surely it might ia the city of London, from whose citizens the Minis try might depend upon re ceiving, as every Ministi had received, the support and encouragement whic .t loyalty to their Sovoreign and attachment to the i.c stitutions of their country would justly lead the pi ic tple of the greatest city in the world to bestow upo n those who had the arduous duty of conducting the affairs of the country. — (Cheers.) The compan y had been pleased to drink the toast of " The Arm' and Navy ;" and when he saw how it was received , 'he could not but rejoice that the Government had ha I the satisfaction of placing at the head of the army , by the gracious permission and command of the So v ereign, one of whom it was unnecessasay to say moi 'e k the way of praise than that he was worthy to t road in the steps of the illus trious hero so lately lost to us—(Great cheering)_ and that they had also t' let satisfaction of seeing at the head of the navy one ivho possessed and deserved the entire confidence of that branch of the service, and of the Sovereign t sod the country.—(Cheers.) But, above all, he (t he S o licitor-General) could not but be reminded of the duty of guarding and protecting the in+ sn'ests of commerce, which had raised this great r to its proud pre-eminence ; and that commerce her Majesty's Ministers, through good and evil report, in Consistency with justice to all classes of the communi ty, were prepared by every means in their power t a encourage and promote.— (Cheers.) After advert ing to the remarks of Mr. Dillon, and expressing hi s respect for that honourable spirit of indu s t ry b y whit 41 t h e h u mblest man among us, whatever hi s or i gin, ho w ever helpless he might have been in the earlier period o f life, might hope to rise to the highest positions in the state, and after avow ing also his sa ti s f act i on in forming part of an assem bly met to do honour to a n ancient and important office, much connected with the administration of the law, being himself a membi rof the legal profession, the Solicitor -General concluded with expressing his confidence, that whatever tl te tenure of offic e o f h er Majesty's Ministers might be , they would a t th e c l o'e of it retire into private life conscious that they had done their best to deserve .he approbation of their fellow -countrymen.—(Cheer s.) The toasts which next follo wed were those of I , the Sheriffs," proposed le] r the Solicitor. General ; "the House of Commons," ai 3knowledged by Lord D.

"Prospeii -, 37 to our mercantile marine." SOUTHTVARK. James Cooksey, a powerful young man, was charged with assaulting his father and mother, and breaking several panes of glass in their house. Both the pri soner's parents, who were in attendance, exhibited marks of violence inflicted by the hands of their un natural son. The father stated that the defendant called at his house on the previous evening, and being refused admission, owing to his bad conduct, he rushed at him and struck him in the face, and gave him two black eyes, which were apparent. Com plainant's wife, hearing the noise, came out, when the defendant immediately attacked her, and struck her a violent blow on the bridge of the nose that made it burst out bleeding, and he then ran out of the house ant commenced throwing stones at the front windows and smashing the glass. He (the father) had exerted every means in his power to curb the impetuous temper of his son, but all efforts were unavailing. He had apprenticed him to a trade, but he had ran away. He next got him a ship and sent him to sea, but he retuned as bad as ever, and plundered him (the father) in such a manner that ha was compelled to turn hm out of his house, and on his refusal to let him in the previous night he acted with the violence described. He added that the defendant had been an inmate of almost all the gaols of London, and he was appreheLsive that he would commit some desperate offence it he was not restrained by the strong arm of the law. The de'endant said he came out of gaol the previous day, and twat be went to his father's house to get something t o eat, but was refused ; and that when he insisted on It he was seized by his father and mother, and in the struggle they received the injuries they complained cf. Mr. Sacitaa said that the defendant's parents were perfectly justfied in refusing admission to a son who, by their accokat, had conducted himself with suc h violence, and V h o di sreg arded their ad v i ce , an d was apparent l y F o ng headlong to destruction. The Magistrate the* sentenced the defendant to find sure ties for his fut ure good behaviour, besides adjudging him to pay fur the damage of the windows he had broken, or, in default of payment, to be committed. The defendant said he could neither find sureties nor pay the amount of the glass he had broken. Mr. SECRER—Then you must go to gaol. LAMBETH. James Cannon, toe ruffian sweep, who has been for years the terror o' the respectable inhabitants of Camberwell and Welwortb, who bas maimed for life several policemen, and w h o has been in custody since Monday, the 14th o f S e ptember, on a charge of having committed a cost savage and murderous as sault on police-constati e Michael Dwyer, 135 P, was broaght before Mr. El;tott for further examination. AVhen the case was called on a sergeant belonging to the P division hiforni e d the magistrate that the in jured constable was not yet in a fit state to attend and give his evidence, and handed in a certificate of the divisional surgeon to show the fact. Cannon, on hearing Ihe officer's statement, in a voice something between o grunt and a growl, said he very much doubted wtether there was anything the matter with the constable ; on the contrary, he believed, that he was kept pack merely to punish him, and that all he wanted was justice. Mr. ELLIOTT assured hiu he should have justice done to him, and read over k certificate of which the following is a copy : "I certify that Police-consttbl e No. 135 P division, Michael Dwyer, is improving but not in a fit state to attend at the police.court. FLOWER, Surgeon. "Camberwell-green, Sept. 36." The prisoner on hearing till certificate r ea d ex pressed himself satisfied, and he was remanded for another week. James Linstead, shopman to Mr. Chapman, a draper in the Brixton-road, wh ) stood charged with plundering his master to a very considerable extent, and in whose boxes upwards of 2(l. in cash was found, was placed at the bar for final examination. In addition to the evidence before given, a brother shopman deposed that for several weeks past he , had observed the pri soner d ur i ng th e b rea kf as t and can ner hours lean over that part of the counter where the till was situate for the professed purpose of get ting the day-book, and on each occasion he heard money chink. When asked why he had not men. tioned this circumstance to his master, the witness said that on a former occasion he had mentioned his suspicions about the prisoner. The witness said he had on a former occasion mentioned his suspicions about another young man to Mr. Chapman, but he took no notice of it ; and if he had spoken to him again he thought he might be considered as unne cessarily complaining of his fellow-shopmen. It was further stated that the 51. note found among the money had been changed at the prosecutor's shop, but as the prosecutor's sister, who usually g ave change, is at present in the country, the fact could not be positively proved. The prosecutor said that he was prepared to prove that the prisoner had expended 80/. w i t hi n the last Mr. T. DUNBAR, in acknowledging this latter toast, expros , td his pprehension the the country was not looking as it ought to the interests of our mar cantile marine, and was leaving too much to the chapter of accidents. It was to the mercantile IDS" rine we must look to man our navy. Was not Nelson himself in the merchant service ?—(Hear, hear.) We were now actually sending out our brawny peasantry as emigrants under a foreign flag, to save a few shillings !—(Hear, hear, and some laughter.) Mr. Dunbar repeated his complaint of such a practice with some warmth, and concluded with observing that, if men must be sent out from this country because they could not live in it, at least we ought not to send away the blood and sinews of the nation under a foreign fl:tg. After a fsir, , other toasts, among which were " the thr of England" (acknowledged by Mr. JAMES), and " the Visitors" (acknowledged by the. Mayor of Southampton), the company separated at a rather late hour. THE CO UN Tit Y MARKETS.
