HAMBURG!' and FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, SEPT. 14.—Tite prices of corn have again risen, according to the official statement of the last week. This rise coincides with that which has occurred in Eng land and in France ; but unhappily our prices are still higher than in France or England. Bread is dearer with us than in these two great neighbouring states, our rivals in industry. These facts claim the attention of our Government. What especially requires all its attention, and merit its most earnest solicitude, is the state of our poorer classes during the approaching winter. After the honourable mention which Sir Robert Peel made of our foresight in counteracting the scarcity of potatoes last winter, we should be sorry to be sue - passed this year by other coun tries. Yet we do not hear of any measures being taken. or even projected. Because the crop of potatoes is saved, it would be a great error to believe that we shall have no great scarcity to struggle with. Undoubt. dly there will be a great difference between the price of that vegetable in 1846, and that of last year, but will there not be in the approaching winter much fewer resources for the indigent classes ? Will not the temperature of the season itself cause those classes to Buffer the greatest privations ? We should be surprised If the Government did not hasten to think on these im portant points. We know that in France the Ministers have taken precautions against a possible scarcity, and we are aware of what the English Government has thought fit to do for Ireland. The Duke of Saxe Coburg and the Princess Clemen tine, his consort, and their children, arrived on Saturday at Brussels, from Paris, on their way to Germany, for which place they will set out in a few days.—Brussels papers. BRUSSELS, SEPT. 15.—The average price of wheat during the week, ending on Saturday, the 12th of Sep tember, was, 25f. 83c., and that of rye, 18f. 52c. per hectolitre. On the first reports which were circulated of the re-appearance of disease in the potatoes, the Ad. ministration took measures to collect, in all the pro vinces, information, to ascertain the real condition of that plant. It results from the reports which the Ad ministration has received, that the disease appeared fact, to- a large extent in the country. Its symptoms are similar to those which it offered in 1845, but it has hitherto been less intense, and it seems to spread with great rapidity. The disease having appeared five or six weeks later than last year, the forward species have for the most part esc a ped the disease, because their maturity was hastened under the influence of the almost con stantly high temperature which we have enjoyed this summer. In many localities the forward potatoes have been got in, and the farmers speak with much satisfac tion of the crops which they have obtained. The price of potatoes continues to fall - in the Brussels market. Yesterday at five o'clock, the Prince of Salerno, bro ther of the Queen of the French, and the Princess, his consort, arrived by a special train at the southern station, with a numerous suite. In the evening there was a grs.nd dinner at the royal palace on occasion of the arrival of the Duke of Saxe Cobourg, the Princess Cle mentine, and the Prince of Salerno. The Prince of Salerno merely passes through Belgium on his way to Germany. It seems that the high prices of eggs and butter are attributed in a great measure to the extraordinary quan tities sent to England. At Brussels fresh butter is double the usual price. SALZBURGII, SEPT. 10.—On the evening of the sth her Majesty, the Queen's mother, arrived here, and alighted at the hotel of the Archduke Charles, where she intends to remain four days; on the day following the Archduchess Sophia also arrived, and put up at the newly arranged beautiful hotel, the Leopoldskrone, and on the 7th continued her journey to Ischal. On the afternoon of the same day the Duke of Parma, the Archduchess Maria, who arrived and returned yesterday forenoon tc Ischal. In the evening her Majesty, the Empress mother accompanied by the Archduchess Hildegunde, of Mo dena, who had arrived a few hours previously, left our city for Berechtsgaden, where their Majesties the King and Queen of Bavaria had arrived on the preceding day. CRACOW, SEPT. I.—For the last fortnight we have been in a state of extraordinary uneasiness and suspense. The military measures in the city are much more vigo rous, and patrols, with cannon, are sent out during the night. In the villages there is greater vigilance than ever. Detachments of light horse traverse the country in all directions ; the village patrols, consisting of pea santa, who have a form of their own, have orders stop everybody who is not personally known to them ; if any one is guilty of negligence while on duty, he is liable to a fine of two rix-dollars and corporal punish. ment. A notice of the police for bids all conversation on politics, threatening fires, arrest and corporal punish. meat. Everybody is therefore obliged to draw his own conclusion as to the cause of such a measure. Land owners arrive here daily from Gallicia, and those from the republic hasten to the city, impelled by an undefined fear. Venda is still imprisoned in Kider, And to be executed in Warsaw. Various reports are in circula tion respecting Tyssowski. The President of the Com• mission, who is an Austrian, decides once in a week on the visits to the prisoners by their relatives, who with great difficulty get permission to see their friends. Only a quarter of an hour is allowed for the visit, and an Austrian secretary is always present. COPENHAGEN, SEPT. B.—Aczounts brought by ships from the manufacturing town of Nystadt, in Finland, state that during a dreadful thunder-storm a building was struck by lightning, in consequence of which 94 houses, with their dependencies, were reduced to ashes. The accounts of damage done by thunder storms in all the northern r.rovinces are very considerable. FROM THE ELBE, SEPT. 2.—We are able to announce, from an authentic source, that according to communi cations made to the Cahinet of Copenhagen by M. Von Ewers, Russian Chari.ir d'Affaires in Denmark, the " letters patent" have met with a more than favourable reception in St. Petersourgh. Russia fully approves the step taken by the King, as it is not only calculated to a solution and removal of existing doubts, but likewis furnishes means to raise a barrier against the agitation by which even the well di,iposed had been carried awa3, and to bring back the parties to a right course. How far these expectations have hitherto been fulfilled, and whe ther the issuing of the letters patent is really conformable to the principles of prudent policy, we may perhaps form a more correct judgment at this moment. than it was possible to do at St. Petersburgh some weeks ago. — COPENHAGEN, SEPT. 11.—On the Bth of this month his Majesty convoked the Provincial Assemblies of North Jutland and Schleswig-Holstein, for the 2I st of October next, and has appointed the Councillor of State and Deputy to the Chambers, M. Bang, as Commissioner in the first assembly, and Mr . Chamberlain Scheel, Pre sident of the Goverments of Schleswig-Holstein, as Com missioners in the latter assembly. PETERSBITRGH, SEPT. s.—The departure of their Im perial Highnesses the Crown Prince and Princess of Wurtenburg is fixed for Wednesday next. The Duke of Leuchtenburg left us last week. Our latest journals announce his passing through Moscow and Tambow. It is thought that his Royal Highness is going to make a second tour to inspect our mines in the Ural and Altar. ' The energetic representations lately made by our Go vernment to Turkey against affording secret assistance to the Circassian mountaineers, appear not to have had the desired results. LUBECK, SEPT. 13.—The St. Petersburgh steamer Naslednik, which arrived this morning at Travemande, brings word that Count Rantzan, the Danish Ambassa dor at St. Petersburgh, has applied to the King of Den mark for leave to retire from his post. his Countess arrived by the same vessel. BRESLAU, SEPT. 9.—A pious wealthy Jewish banker, named Altharas, from Marseilles, passed through this place yesterday, being sent by Sir Moses Montefiore to Russia, to obtain leave from the Emperor for the emi gration of a certain number of Jews to Algiers, which the Emperor is said to hare promised to Sir Moses. It is reported that the traveller has many important letters of recommendation to the Prince of Warsaw, and that it depends much on the Prince to support his views with the Emperor.

FOREIGN WOOL TRADE.—LEEDS, SEPT. 18 —We have only to report a limited demand again for most de scriptions of foreign wool during the past week, but r.cent rates ere steadily supported, as well in this market as at the London sales. ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, SEPT. 18.—The demand for combing wool is without any variation of moment com pared with the last few weeks : prices are stationary. BRISTOL SEPTEMBER WOOL FAIR..--The quantity of wool pitched was less than usual, and fewer sales were effected ; which is chiefly to be attributed to the large sales of colonial wool, which are just about to commence. There appeared to be less disposition on the part of the manufacturers to buy than at the late fairs, and prices were evidently lower than at the last March fair, but were about the same as have been obtained for the last three weeks. The demand for the finer descriptions of wools was very limited. TRADE OF LEEDS.—From the circumstance of many of the larger manufacturers being engaged in making to order, a very limited quantity of goods at present in demand were brought to the Cloth Halls, avid mar kets were dull both on Saturday and Tuesday. Prices con tinue steady. Business is duller in the warehouses than is usual in the month of September. The weather con tinning so warm has the tendency of retarding the sale of winter goods, the larger buyers prrftrring to buy sparingly, and visit the market oftener, rather than lay in heavy stocks at the commencement of the season. Should the weather turn out cold next month the proba bility is that there will be a pretty brisk trade in heavy seasonable goods. BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY, SEPT. 17.—The demand for combing wools to-day is an average one. Prices are very firm, as the staplers are unable to replace their stocks, with profit, at lower prices. Nods and short wools are in good demand. It has ever been our pride to be accurate and impar tial in our market accounts, and we must, therefore, honestly state, notwithstanding other reports, that the yarn trade is in a healthy condition. The spinners are fully employed, and no stocks of consequence are on hand ; and we should like to know where the unemployed frames, mentioned by a contemporary, aro to be found. Several large spinning firms in the town are very much in want of hands. We shall hold the balance evenly between our manufacturing and wool-growing friends, and never make Bradford market a link lower in prosperity than it really is. For low merinos and other heavy piece goods there is an excel-. lent demand. Figures are somewhat on the decline. Goods are largely bought for the American market. We may, in a word, say that our market, in all its depart ments, is in a vigorous and healthy state. TRADE OF MANCHESTER, THURSDAY.—There has been a good deal doing in cloth this week, but the market has been influenced more by the advance on the staple than any other cause. Many parties now apprehend that with the prospect of a short crop of cotton and the high price of food, we shall have anything but a prosperous trade through the winter. At present, however, our dyers and printers are pretty well employed. The velvet trade is tolerably good. Yarns are ready sale at a small advance, thuugh not equal to that on the staple. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 2l, 11446; under the 9th of Geo. 4, cap. 61, as licensed victualler3. It was manifestly the intention of the Legislature to con fine the powers of entry given to the police by the 7th section of the 4th and sth William I V., to those who sold beer, eider, &c., and the words " spirituous liquors" used in the first part of the section, must have been in serted by mistake ; this was evidknt by th:, latter part of the section, where it was state. - 4 that upon a se: md offence the magistrate should have power to disqualify the offender from selling beer, ale, porter, cider, or perry. No allusion was here made to spirituous liquors or wine. Under these words the magistrate could have no power to deprive a licensed victualler of his license to sell spirituous liquors, so that, in fact, a magistrate could not enforce the penalties for the second conviction—the clause would thus be inconsistent. Under these cir cumstances, it was quite clear that the clause could not be held to apply to licensed victuallers, but only to beer shop keepers. The powers given by this section were calculated to inflict great injustice ; even the Police Act contained no such clause. There was on- Instance in which the police had entered the house of a most r,.• spectable licensed victualler, at night, and had actually obliged him and his fatally to turn out of bed in order that they might search the house. Mr. BURRELL said he had paid the greatest attention to the argument that had been used, which was very ingenious, but not strong etlouA t overrule the expre,s wards made use of in the first Rift of the section. If, however, Mr. Duneumbe's client wa , : desirous of appeal ing, he would inflict a fine above 3/., in order that the appeal might be made under the Police Act. Mr. Duncombe said his client was not rich enough to desire the expense of an tippet!. Mr. BURRELL then fined the defendant 10s., which was not enforced. ARAB MILITARY SPORTS. AC a signal from the Sheik, one of his troop, an Arab, spurred forth from the line, and turning his horse sud denly, shook his lance over his shawl helmet, and seemed to defy an adversary. Another hint from the Sheik, and a great negro, the most powerful of the band, sprang forward, poised his long lance, and approaching within a few yards of the other, seemed about to hurl it with unerring aim, but his lighter adversary brought his horse so suddenly on his haunches that he must un doubtedly havo escaped the blow. The negro, mean time, was at top speed, and before he could turn in the saddle or bring his lance to the rear parry (which is a skilful feat, the arm twisted round, and the lance trailing along, a perfect de ence to the rear); before he could do this the active Arab had driven his pointed stirrup into the side of his steed, and dashed with uplifted lance upon his enemy. Escape was impossible, and the negro was vanquished; he accord ingly took his place in the march, and another Arab darted out to the play. The activity of the horses, and the perfect seat of the riders, were beautiful. This time they galloped at first easily along, and parallel with each other, making feints with their lances, and parrying with equal skill; suddenly the last conqueror wheeled his horse, twirled his lance over his head, spurred across and behind his fellow, and aimed the spear head at the shoul der; the other darted as suddenly away, inducing his enemy to follow at full speed, when, by the same feat of checking suddenly his horse, he in turn became pursuer. The trick was less successful than with the negro, for the cunning victor of the last trial dropped his lance, and quitk as thought his cymeter glittered in the air, the blow was parried, and, closing in, he would have cleft the turban of his enemy in a trice This second victory seemed to rouse the Sheik, who, patting the neck of his noble horse, settled himself in the saddle, and rode quietly out of the road towards the conqueror. The latter, meantime, had recovered his lance, and stood motionless on the defensive. The Sheik approached cautiously, and trotted round his opponent, who kept his front carefully toward him, and avoided two or three thrusts. Presently he appeared to weary of playing the defensive, and he darted at the Sheik ; but the horse of the chief was unmatched in speed and activity ; he easily saved his rider, who immediately after whirling suddenly, became again the assail int. The Arab was taken unawares, failed to, parry his ene my's lance, and the Sheik won the fight. After several such combats, they performed a melee, and nothing could be more animated. The attack, retreat, pursuit, dashing to and fro, the active horses straining every nerve, and the showy riders exerting their dearest skill, wheeling, flying, halting as by magic, in " all the current of a heady flight." Suddenly there was a pause, and they formed together, as though uniting their forces ; several planted their long lances in the ground, unslung their carbines, and, dashing away, turned in their saddles at full speed, and gave their fire as at some pursuing enemy. The reports of the fire-arias, the wild shouts, the flying figures, now confused together, and again in fierce pursuit, the furious gestures, and the noble bounds of the horses—indeeed, the picture was grand be) and all imagining.—Schroeder's Shores of the Mediterranean. CAPTURE OF A THIEF. On Saturday evening, a gentleman belonging to this town was returning from lluntingdon in a gig, and on arriving at Fenstanston, about half-past eight o'clock, he was suddenly accosted by a decent-looking woman, who earnestly requested him to stop, and urged him to re ceive into the gig, and to convey to Cambridge, a young man by whom she was accompanied, stating that a • scoundrel had just robbed her of very considerable pro perty—that he was not gone above an hour—that she had received information which induce d the belief that he had gone to Cambridge, with the view of proceeding by the first train to London, and that it would be of great importance to follow him up, and if possible to overtake him. Overcome by the importunities of the woman, who seemed highly respectable. and who was evidently much affected by the loss of her property, the gentleman took up her companion and pursued his way. The story was no fiction. The young man whom our informant received into the gig was brother•in-law of the very worthy woman whose property had been con veyed away, and he stated the particulars of the case as they drove on together. The man who had ab sconded had been lodging some months in the house of his sister-in-law. lie had worked with a harness maker in Fenstanston. He had come from another part of the country, but had generally conducted him self in such a manner as induced them to treat him with some confidence. During the four months that he had lived in the village, he received board and lodging and various articles of dress, &c., and had promised faith. fully to pay for all when he received his money. On Saturday last he did receive his money and forthwith disappeared, having previously packed up and conveyed away the whole of his very limited property, increased however in bulk and in value by several articles which wore not his own. This was the man whom he was now in pursuit of. Our friend, on learning these parti culars, recommended that they should call at the first public-house. They did so, and were given to under stand that the knight of the harness had indeed been there, and had left about a quarter of an hour. The travellers proceeded with the Lull resolution of calling at the next public-house. The night was very dark, and it was only by such means that they could hope to dis cover the object of their search. As they approached the next house of refreshment, the landlord and the identical runaway himself came to the door. The latter at once recognised the brother-in-law of his late land lady, and entreated to be allowed to proceed, protesting that he would surrender on the spot all the money which he had in his possession. This offer was not accepted. The young man (the brother-in-law) had been in the police force at Cambridge, and knew some thing of the business on which he happened to be em ployed. Nothing would do but that the runaway gen tleman should go back. To this unwelcome retrocession the latter at length consented, and both, before retracing their steps, retired into the inn to have a glass of beer with the landlord, who was not a little surprised at the sudden and unexpected capture of the temporary guest. At this point our friend, who had evidently done one good action that evening, proceeded on his way to Cambridge, and how the matter has been settled, we cannot tell. But perhaps we have omitted the strangest part of the transaction. It is a singular fact that the landlord (who knew nothing of the miscreant, except that he had stated his desire to reach Cambridge speedily) had hurried with him to the door, on hearing the sound of wheels, to get him, if possible, accom• modated in the same manner as his pursuer had bet-n ; so that our friend in the gig, if he had not conveyed the one, would probably have been prevailed upon to do that office for the other. Providentially, it so happened that instead of assisting a rogue to escape, he was the means of overtaking him. He was altogether an instrument in the hands of Providence. Actuated only by kindly motives, he might have done eel], but it just so happened that he did good ; and we trust the worthy woman will bays her own, and that the rogue will get what he merits.— Cambridge paper. The article of the Universal Prussian Gazette which intimates the decided sentiments of the Pru,,sian Go vernment in the question of Schleswig-Holstein, was copied yesterday into the Berlin Gazette, which draws the attention of its readers to it, but without adding any remarks.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Sept. 19 THE PILOT ACT.—IN RE ISAAC WILLIAM NEWTON. —This case involved a question under the Pilot The insolvent, a master mariner, was opposed by M. 11)rry on the part of William Williams, the detaining creditor ; he was supported by Mr. Cooke. It appeared that the insolvent had been some Tears master of the brim Dart, trading from the London Docks to Madeira, and ° belonging to R. Dart, Esq., of Wal brook. In the early part of 1844, as the insolvent was about to proceed on his voyage from the London Docks, a pilot of the Trinity House, named Mountford, claimed his right to pilot the vessel, but was refused by the in solvent on the ground that he was by the Pilot Act (6 Geo. IV. c. 125) exempted, because he was part owner, and resided within the jurisdiction of the Isle of Tha net. Upon the return of the, vessel the insolvent was summoned to Lambeth-street Police-office for an in- fringement of the Act, and on the disposal of the summons, which the insolvent insisted was dismissed, but which was denied by the othr side, an action was c. , mmenced in the Court of Exchequer for the charges, and the question raised was discussed before a full Court, the insolvent was exempted, and ev, ntually the case was decided against him. He was now in ens tods' for the damages and costs, amounting together to 1101. 123. 6d. The insolvent, on his examination, admitted that he was not a part owner when he claimed exemption in the year 1844. The fact wai that en the 6th of November, 1843, he had the 64th part of the vessel transferred to him to give him a " qualification" on the registry, and on the next day it was transferred by him. Mr. Cooke observed, that if he had been part owner he would have been clearly exempted from the operation of the Pilot Act. Mr. Harry insisted that the insolvent had committed a fraud by claiming exemption when he was not exempted; he was either part owner or he was not. The insolvent, on bring further examined, stated that he had no interest in the vessel. Mr. Horry wished to know the consideration given for the re-transfer. Mr. Cooke said nothing. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS observed that the insolven had admitted that it was a " colourable" transaction. The Court ordered the insolvent to be discharged. LONDON SESSIONS.

FORGERY OF STOCK IN THE BANK OF ENGLAND A man named Joseph Jones was brought before Mr. Alderman Gibbs, in the custody of Daniel Forrester, charged with having forged a transfer of stock, which was deposited in the names of George Edwards and bis wife. Forrester received the warrant for the apprehen sion of the prisoner at a quarter past five o'clock, traced him to Greenwich immediately, and placed him at the bar at a quarter before seven o'clock. Mr. Henry Freshfield, of the firm of Freshfield and Co., solicitor=, to the Bank of England, stated that the sum of 31. 10s. per annum, standing in the Long Annul•. ties in the names of George Edwards and his wife, had been taken out by the prisoner, who represented George Edward , , with whose wife he lived, and for that purpose forged the name of Mr. Edwards. A clerk at the Transfer Office of the Bank proved that the transfer of the stork had been mnde. He pro duced the transfer book,which showed that the transfer had been made on the sth of January, 1842. Alderman GlBBS—Prisoner, do you wish to ask the witness any question ? The prisoner —No; the thing is quite clear enough. The witness said he did not recollect whether the pri soner was or was not there. George Edwards, of Winch-park, Coventry, stated that his wife formerly lived in Ehury-street, Pimlico, and that her name was Sarah. He had not, since 1840, transferred any stock in the Bank of England. The writing on the transfer-book of the Bank was not his. Ho did not authorise anybody to sign his name. He did not :authorise his wife to sign his name. The prisoner—l know nothing at all of this man, who has just spoken. • Alderman GIBBS—Do you know where your wife is? Witness—No ; I have not seen her these four years, I have written to her, but I have received no answer to my letters. I was told she lived with the prisoner, but I don't know anything about him ; I never saw him in my life before. Samuel Couldry, of No. 10, Eecleston-street, stated that he knew the prisoner twelve years, and that he knew Mrs. Edwards, the wife of the witness George Edwards, about twenty years. Witness saw the prisoner in the beginning of August, at his (witness's) dwelling. Mrs. Edwards was with the prisoner, and introduced the prisoner as her husband, Mr. Jones. The prisoner —Yes, yes. Witness went to Richmond with the prisoner and Mrs. Edwards, or Mrs. Jones, and the prisoner gave him some cards. The prisoner keeps a beer-shop. Witnese be lieved that the name " George Edwards" in the bank transfer-book was the prisoner's handwriting. William Henry Freshfield produced a letter signed Joseph S. Jones, to the last witness. The prisoner eta the letter was written by him. He acknowledged that he knew nothing at all about the lady's being married— he knew nothing about her being married at all, and therefore he had no offence to answer for. The lady told him she was not legally married to Edwards. Alderman Ginns asked whether the prisoner wished to account for the" transfer made in the books ?" The prisoner —No ; it will be all found right. Alderman Glens—You are charged with forgery ? The prisoner —.Yes. Alderman GIBBS—And I shall remand you till Friday. The prisoner —That's a long time. It will be ell right, I know, when it's all heard. Will you take bail for my appearance ? Alderman GIBBS—No. The prisoner—lt will be all right. The prisoner was then remanded. CITY POLICE COMMITTEE. DISEASED CATTLE.—On Saturday, a Mr. Smith, an extensive cow-keeper, &c., at Islington, and his son, a boy about fourteen, were summoned before Alderman Lucas to answer a charge preferred by police•con stable 33, under the following circumstance, : It appeared, from the statement of the officer, that he saw the boy driving a cow into Smithfield. The animal was in such a state as not to be able to move, and its tongue was hanging out from disease. Witness had cautioned the boy he ought not to drive at all, not having a badge, and that if he continued his cruelty to the animal, he would have to answer for it. Tho father then went up and grossly abused the witness for inter fering. A witness was called, who denied the statement of the officer. The officer said Mr. Vince, the inspector of the market, had said it was extreme cruelty to force the ani mals to walk at all. They were labcuring under a disease of the lungs. The witness said this was ve.y prevalent ; at least twenty beasts a week in that state were taken into the market, and witness had caused several to he killed. The worthy Alderman fined the boy ss. and costs, and the father 10s. and costs. WESTMINSTER. A question of some interest to licensed v'etuallers arose before Mr. Burrell, upon a complaint made 1w the police against D. Crow, the proprietor of the Three Elms, St. Anne-street, Westminster, who was charged with refusing to admit Police Sergeant Loom, and de taining him three minutes at the door. The question which wns raise d by Mr. Duncombe, the solicitor to the Licensed Victuallers' Society, was, how far the police had a right of entry into the house of a licensed victualler? Mr. Duncombe said, that this information was laid under the 4th and sth of Will. 4, cap. 85, intitled an Act to amend an Act passed in the Ist of Will. 4, to permit the general sale of beer or cider. The Act of 1 Will. 4 applied only to beer-shop keepers as appeared by the preamble. By the 7th sec. of the 4 and 5 Will. 4, it was enacted, that it should be lawful for constables and police-officers to enter into all houses, which should be licensed to sell beer or spirituous liquors, to be consumed upon the promises, when and so often as such constables or police-officers should think proper. and if any person having such licence as aforesaid, or any servant in his employ, should refuse to admit such police constable he should for the first offence forfeit 51., and that it should be lawful for any magistrate upon the second offence to adjudge that such offender should be disqualified from selling beer, ale, porter, cider, or perry, for the space of two years, or for such shorter time as the magistrate should think fit. Under these words it was contended that the. Act only applied to persons who sold beer, and not to those who sold spirituous liquors, and had received their licence LAMBETH. SINGULAR DELUSION.—M rs. Susan Lawrence, the wife of a compositor in the employ went of Messrs. Clowes and Sons, of Duke-street, Lambeth, appeared before Mr. Elliott, on a warrant charging her with threatening the life of Mr. Powell, an egg-merchant. The complainant stated that in consequence of several slanderous report:i circulated throughout the neigbour hood against him by the defendant, Mrs. Lawrence, he, on Tuesday evening last, went to see her husband, and speak to Icrn upon the subject. Upon seeing him the defendant commenced abusing him in the most unmea sured language, and charged him with having, in com pany with a respectable cow-keeper in the neighbour hood, taken her from her own house to a house of ill fame in Westminster, when both of them treated her in a brutal manner, and threatened to run her through with a knife. Tier statement, in so far as he, witness, was concerned, was a gross fabrication, es he could prove, if necessary, that on the night she had mentioned, namely the Bth of May last, as that upon which the out rage had been committed, he had a party at his bowie to celebrate his birthday, and had not been away from home for a single moment. The defendant, who had frequently interrupted the complainant, and it was difficult to keep quiet, replied that his conduct to her had been scandalous, and that he knew it. A lod , 4 er in the house and a police-constable deposed to the defendant being an habituardrunkard, and that in the first instance she had accused other parties than Mr. Powell and the cowkeeper of being her abductors and the authors of the outrage upon her. The husband of the defendant expressed it to be his opinion that his wife's statement was true, but the Mag;strate, on the contrary, remarked that when the application was made to him two or three days ago by the defendant's husband, he thought the statement ex ceedingly improbable, and that the defendant must have been lab4uring under some delusion. lie was now con • firmed in that impression, and it was his opinion that she had been removed from the Peckham Asylum a great deal too soon. Mr. Powell said he had been subject to great annoy ance by the strange fancies of the defendant, and he feared he should be subjected to much more unless she was restrained by his won-hip. Mr. ELLIOTT at first ordered the defendant to find bail, but finding the extraordinary excesses she pro ceeded to in the Court, he desired that she might be at once taken to the Lambeth workhouse with a view to her being sent back to the Peckham Asylum. EXTRAORDINARY RUBBERY OF BANK NOTES.—John Coffin, who was described as a law stationer, was finally examined, and fully committed for trial, on a charge of stealing 501. in bank notes, the property of Mr. Davis, a law stationer in Castle-street, Holborn. The brief facts of the case were these:—jn the 21st of last month, the prosecutor played the part of Richard the Third at an amateur performance at the Bower Saloon, Stangate, and in changing his dress, had left six five pound notes, and two for ten pounds each in the pocket of his tights. The prisoner, who acted as prompter, was in the dressing room at the time the prosecutor changed his dress, and absconded the following day. On Friday week he was apprehended near Ware, in Hertfordshire, and upon being searched, two of the stolen notes, namely, one for five and the other for ten pounds were found in his pos session. The magistrate refused to take bail to any amount for the prisoner, SOUTHWARK. Mr. Thomas Babson,a merchant, residing in. Three crown-square, Southwark, was brought before Mr. Clive, charged with committing an assault on Charles Brown, one of the railway constables ,belonging to the South-Eastern Railway. Charles Brown stated that he is a constable belonging to the South-Eastern Company, and that at half-past four o'clock that morning, on the arrival of the express train from Dover, he collected the passengers' tickets. The defendant being in a first-class carriage, he was asked for his ticket, when he produced a s,nond-class one, and being informed that he had to pay 2 more, being a passenger from Tonbridge, he immediately paid it, but refused to deliver up the ticket. Ile was told that the ticket must be delivered, and informed of the consequences if he did not ; but he still refused to do so. Finding the defendant determined not to resign posses sion of the ticket, witness took him gently by the arm, upon which, the defendant immediately seized him round the waist, and threw him down upon his back, ar d while on the ground, struck him on the mouth. Witness added, that the defendant was then taken in a cab to the station-house, where he delivered up the ticket to the inspector on duty. In the witness's cross - examination he said that the defendant told him he bad given up his return-ticket at Tonbridge . to one of the railway servants, who did not give it back again. That witness, on hearing it, did not say to the defendant, " The n y ou are a d—d f oo l , " b ut might have said that it was foolish of him to do so. The defence was, that on the preceding morning the defendant purchased a second-class return ticket to Tun bridge, from London - bridge, intending to come back the same evening. When the train arrived at Tonbridge, h e gave his ticket to the policeman on . duty there, in order to mark it, or " punch it." as it is termed. In the con fusion, however, created by the arrival of another train, the policeman hurried away, without returning the ticket ; and he (defendant) thinking it would be set right when he returned to the station, mentioned it to the clerk, and while the necessary inquiries were making on the subject, the train he intended to start by l e ft th e station, and he was detained at Tonbridge until half-past two that morning, awaiting the express-train, the clerk assuring him that if he paid the fare there, it would be returned to him, en his explanation of the matter at the terminus. He did explain it all at the London-bridge station. and refused to deliver paid d ou bl e ta re — unt il he saw deliver up t h e t i c k et w i thout some The ticket av ho w e ver was st ill d eman d ed. t a h c e ku s t e r e w r i e e t d a g r) in .. ent rrh l and as he refuses d to part with it, he was seized with vio lence, and in resisting they both fell to the ground. Mr. CLIVE, addressing a gentleman in atten•lence on the Act of taking th e d e f en d ant the part of the South - Eastern Company, a s k e d w h at einlatousceuswtoodu3l.d, justify fusi h ng to deliver up his ticket ? The by-laws of the company were produced, by which it appeared a power was given for that p ur p ose ; but Mr. Clive, an referring to the Bth Victoria, chap. 20, said that even suppos‘ng it was proved the defendant intended to have defrauded the company by refusing to deliver up his ticket, still he did not % think it would justify his being taken into custody, much less when it did not appear that he had any such intention, but merely wished to retain it, to have a portion of the fare restored to him when the matter would be investigated by the secretary. Under the circumstances, therefore, lie (the magistrate) should dismiss the complaint against the defendant. 'I he defendant's solicitor expressed his client's deter mination to enter an action immediately against the South-Eastern Railway Company, to prevent acts of the above description being perpetrated on the public who travel on their railway. William Staunton, a porter, belonging to the South- Eastern Railway Company, was brought up for his ex amination charged with stealing a live crab out of a basket from Ashford. It appeared that on the arrival of an early train from Ashford on Monday morning, the prisoner, whose duty it was to help to unload the trucks, was observed to have something bulky under his coat. lie was followed to the entrance gates b . .. Mr. Shaw, the superintendant, who, suspecting that he had taken something, insisted on an examination, and discovered that he had a large live crab under his coat. The prisoner at first said he only had a few apples, but when the crab was discovered he beggad hard for forgiveness, and wanted to replace the crab in the basket from which he had taken it, but he was prevented, arid given into custody. Mr. limy said that extensive depredations were committed on the property intrusted to the company for conveyance, and that an example was intended to be made on a discovery. The magistrate committed the prisoner for trial. MARYLEBONE. William Bardwall, an architect, residing at 49, Great Clit-en•street, Westminster, was charged with having wifully damaged one of the public baths recently opened in George-street, Euston-square. William W ar d , an atten d ant on t h e b at h s, d epose d that the previous evening he prepared a second-class bath for the prisoner, and, upon his coming out, witness smelt something unpleasant in the bath. Upon looking in, he found that a great portion of the wall had been blackened, and a part of the enamel of the bath danataged. He then gave directions that the prisoner should be stopped. lie considered the damage to have been done by some very powerful liquid. Sergeant Neeld, 3 S, who was called in, said that he asked the prisoner what he had got in his pocket? to which he replied. " Nothing ; if you touch me you shall suffer for it." Witness then searched the prisoner, and found an empty half-phi a l i n one o f his pockets, but the prisoner refused t o say w h at i t h a d contained. Mr. Thomas Harrii, superintendent of the baths, said that the damage, w hi c h was ev idently caused by some extremely stro ng ac id , amounted to no le.;s than 41 . The act must have b een o f a w ilf u l nature. Nothing what. ever was used in cleaning the baths but . soap and water, and the room was pert ectly clean before the prisoner wentinto it. The prisoner said that he had used nothing in the bath but a solution of sulphur, which he was in the habit of washing himself with. Ho had often been in baths before, but had never been complained of. He deli.. d doing any intentknal harm. Other evidence wa, then i:iven, confirmatory of the pre ceding, in respect to the amonnt of damage, and the pri soner was ordered to pay 41. He did so, ar.d wai liberated. POISONINGS AT CLA-VLRING. ADJOURNED INQUEST —The adjourned inquest into the deaths of Joseph and Jatues Chesham, the children alleged to have bet -n poisoned by their mother, was re sumed on Saturday morning at half-past ten o'clock, before C. C. Lewis, Esq , the coroner, at the Fox and Hounds. The following evidence was adduced, in addition to that which has already appeared in The Sun, respecting this singular ease:— Mrs. Ann Deardes was recalled—She hail omitted to state that one day as she was passing Chesham's house, the accused woman accosted her, and said, " I count I shall son hang upon Chelmsford gallows, and be buried beneath it." This was after the death of the children. Since that event Mrs. Chesham had appeared wild and comical. Tier eves always appeared as though they were starting out of her head, and she was constantly crying about her bop , . Charles Cole, a labourer, was called, and manifested great reluctance to b ing sworn, repeaied!y declaring that he "Ktiow'd nothing about it." having at length been prevailed upon, he deposed, in answer to the coro ner, that he had had some conversation with John Chesham, the second son of the accused woman, but what passed on that occasion " had quite slipped out of his memory." James Low, a ratcatcher, repeated his testimory that the woman Chesham had asked him for some arsenic, but whether that was before or after, the death of the children he could not recollect, although he thought . it was before. He did not give her any, because he thought he should not get paid for it. A juror asked the surgeon who had attended the boys whether he had ever given the accused woman reason to believe that the boys had died from inflammation of the lungs ?—The burgeon said he had not. Susan Green stated that on the Thursday night, pre vious to the last sitting of the jury, she heard the boy John Chesham talk to Cole about the evidence he was to give on the inquest. The boy replied, "Oh, I know what to say, for my muster has told me." Cole works at Mr. Thomas Newports.—(Sensation.) The boy John Chesham was confronted with the wit ness, and denied tbat he made such a statement. Ile said, " Cole spoke to me, And told mo to mind what I said a 6 the inquest. I made no reply." No persuasion or threats could induce him to say another word on the subject. CoRoNER—It is very evident to me that you have been tampered with in the most unjustifiable manner, and it is confidently stated that yeeir master is the person who has interfered with you. It appears that your master is a person named Wisbey, and at the present moment sitting in this room as a member of the jury. Mr. Wisbey declared that he had said nothing to the boy further than counselling him to tell the truth. Mr. Spencer, a juryman, said—Mr. Wisbey, it seems to me that you allowed your servant to take a liberty with you which no servant of mine would dare to take with me. When that boy, John Chesham, left this room on the last inquiry, he touched you on the arm, looked up in your face, and smiled. You then said, " Well Alone, boy, you did it very well."—(Much sensation among the jury.) CORONER. (to Wisbey)—l have no doubt you made that remark to the boy, and that could not have been done without an object. It was a strong remark to make, because it was the conviction of all present that the boy had committed perjury. Has any one men tioned the subject to you ? Wisbey—No. CORONER—Not either of the Newports ? Wisbey— No ; I never spoke to them on the subject. CORONER—Hare you not been up there occasionally of an evening to talk about this subject ? Wisbey— Yes, I may have been up there to talk about it sometimes. CORONER—Was anything said about the boy ? Wisbey—Not that I recollect. A Juror—Did Thomas Newport say anything about arsenic? Wisbey—Yes, he said something about it, but I forget what. Mr. Spencer, a juryman, expressed his conviction that the conduct of Wisbey had been disgraceful, and that his criminality had been increased by the fact that as juror he had sworn to do justice. Mrs. Chesham, the mother of the accused woman, upon being recalled, declared that she had never said she was not going to tell the jury all she knew about the deaths of the two boys. Mr. Spence - r, a juror (addressing the witness), said— Mr. Newport told me you had said so in the presence of fifty people: Mrs. Chesham—lt is false, and Mr. Newport dares not come here and make that statement while I am present. The CCRONER said it now became his duty to off,:r to the jury a few observations respecting the very import ant and mysterious inquiry in which they had been en caged, prior to the consideration of their verdict. They had it clearly proved that the deceased Joseph Chesham died on the 19th January, 1845, and his brother James on the 22d January, but three days afterwards. It had also been proved beyond dispute that both these children had died from the effects of arsenic, and it would be the duty of the jury, if posiible, to say haw or by whom the poison had been administered. The evidence having been read over, the Court was cleared, a•,d the jury remained for a long time in deli beration, when The CORONER said—From certain circumstances which have been disclosed, and of which until just now I was perfectly' ignorant, the jury as well as myself feel that a further adjournment is necessary, in order that evidence may be obtained, which will in all probability prove of a very important and conclusive character. The investigation was adjourned fur five weeks. A GANG OF SWINDLERS CAUTION TO MANUFACTURERS. From the following particulars we are led to believe that a family who have Inr many years been " dropping upon" the merchants of Manchester, with great assiduity and no less success, are trying another district and another name. Having occasion to call on a friend, at Littleborough, on business, last Thursday, our informant found that a per Son of respectable appearance had been there passing himself off as Mr. Henry, of the firm of James Henry and Co., of this town, and, unds.r such pretence, obtaining samples of goods manufactured at Littleborough and in the neighbourhood, which, on being obtained, were taken to a car he had with him and car ried away. Two ea...es were made out distinctly in which this had been accomplished, and there is little doubt that ,he parties victimised are not the only sufferers, though at present other cases have not come to light. In one of these instances an invoice of the goods was received, and thus the affair assumed the complexion of a contract debt, but in the other there was no such invoice passed, and, therefore, a piece of swindling was complete. In the one case four pieces of flannels, worth about 8/. or 101., were obtained ; in the other, three pieces of finer texture, worth about 11/. or 121. One of the persons who had thus unwiltingly given up his goods to this Mr. Henry, determined to pursue the fellow, and tracked him, in company wi:h a friend who entered into his feelings heartily, and a- police officer, to Halifax, where the scheme developed itself. There the gang (for there can be no doubt of more than one individual "conducting the business") had, about five weeks ago, taken a ware house in a back street, but so situated with respect to a train street, that in speaking of it they could say it, was behind such a street, naming a well-known thorough fare, and thus gain a further appearance of respecta bility of position from the locality of the ware house. This Owe Mr. Henry had had five weeks, and had scarcely entered or been seen in it five times since he took it, wed when examined, it was quite empty, the sample goods having taken their departure to other premises. Further inquiries showed that there was another firm (suspected to be the same) carrying on an equally advantageous business, and their warehouse too was empty: in this second case the faci lities for transfer of goods were greater than in the first, for there was a back door, which the other premises had not. But the enterprising fellows had not confined their attention to Lancashire only, but seem to have practised to some extent upon the unwary among the manufac tures at Nottingham, from which place large and heavy bundles of lace and hosiery have been received per railway. With the material thus obtained a shop was opened for the sale of bankrupt stock, and an old woman was employed to dispose of it; but this ramification of their scheme has been closed, having no doubt proved a highly profitable concern for the two months it was open. One link in the chain of circumstantial evidence proving these to be a pack of swindlers at work, is the great eagerness displayed to get the various parcels into their hands as they arrived per rail. A person was on the spot almost always, and teazel the railway porters no little respecting the goods, so much so, indeed, that it is a wonder that in a town like Halifax suspicion was not ex cited, and the motions of the worthies watched. That they are adepts at their work, and determined to stop at nothing to compass their end, is proved by the manner in which they victimised a too-confiding member of a religious body. The unwitting man was called upon, business was transacted, and an invite to breakfast given and accepted ; the table was well spread, and, as it was the host's practice to ask a blessing upon his food, the swindler, knowing his man, wieh all the coolness imagin able, gratified the honest soul, by stringing together for the occasion a number of very appropriate terms, eat his breakfast, and then walked off with his ill-gotten sam ples. These are the particulars we have at present, but we understand the matter is in the hands of the indefa tigable gentlemen who conduct the business of the Man chester Guardian Soci, ty ; and we would further im press upon our contemporaries in Halifax, Bradford, Nottingham, Derby, and other menu - Leeds, Wakefield, lecturing towns, the duty of making the circumstances known. If the party.are they whom we suspect them to be, we knew them well ; they are very old birds—in com mon parlance, they know a point or two, and are not likely tai be caught readily, so that the greatest security to manufactursrs will be found to be cautiousness, and the avoiding of all connexion with such persons.— Mancheiter Courier of Friday. TIM MODERN TASTE FOR ANTIQUE FURNITURE. —'! he furniture and the panels of rooms, in the Louis XIV. style, of which there are so many examples in the ships of deal rs, are remarkable for a degree of elegance to which at this day we seldom approach. It is not only in their forms that these are to be admired, but some of them have great beauty of design in the arrangement of different kinds of wood and other materials. We do not allude to the imitation of leaves and flowers, by woods of different colours—a curious branch of art still practised, but which has never in our mind a satisfactory result, but to the geometrical pat terns formed in the veneering. Mahogany and rosewood, or mahogany and ebony, are frequently combined with great taste, it a manner now seldom attempted, except in professed imitations of old works.— The Builder. • ANDOVER UNION. A copy of the depositions taken before Mr. Pigott, the Assistant Poor-law Commissioner, at the late inves tigation into the conduct of Mr. M`Dougal, junior, the schoolmaster of the Andover Union, has just been laid before Parliame n t, p ursuan t to an order of the House of Commons, dated 28th ult. The evidence given by the several witnesses has already, in effect, been published in the journals at the time of the investigation. The following letter, however, will be read with interest, as it contains the remarks of Mr. Pigott upon the entire case INQUIRY INTO THE CASE OF JOSEPH WDOUGAL, SCHOOL MASTER OF THE ANDOVER UNION. " Southampton, July 25. " Gentlemen,--I have the honour to report, that in pursuance of the instructions conveyed to me in your letter of the 29th of June last, to inquire into the truth of certain allegations which had been made relating to the conduct of Joseph M'llougal, the schoolmaster of the workhouse of the Andover Union, towards the pauper children therein, and to the sale of provisions by him, and conformably to the information conveyed to me in your letter of the Bth of July, that the allegations in question were made by Jane Grace, formerly an irmate of the Andover workhouse, and by Sarah Muspratt, re cently an inmate of the same workhouse, and that two persons of the name of Matilda Coleman and Elizabeth Saunders could give evidence on the former point, I ap pointed, with your sanction, the 23d of July for com mencing the inquiry, that being the earliest day which pressing official engagements left open to me, and. it being uncertain also whether the presence of Jane Grace and Sarah Muspratt could be obtained previously to that time. Accordingly, bn the 23d of July, in the presence of a board of the guardians of the Andover Union, specially summoned, I proceeded to the investigation of the fol lowing charge against Joseph M'Dougal, viz.:- - That the brother of Sarah Muspratt had been severely beaten and bruised by Joseph M'Dougal, with a leather strap with a buckle at the end of it, and that he was struck with the buckle-end of the strap ; and that two other boys, named Harry and Isaac White, were also beaten at the same time, and that blood flowed from the nose of Harry White. At the outset of the inquiry, an objection was taken by one of the guardians, that Joseph M'Dougal was-not the schoolmaster of the Andover workhouse.; that he had never been regularly appointed by the guardians, nor his appointment, such as it is, sanctioned by the Commissioners. It appeared that the minute-book of the guardians was with the Committee of the House of Commons. The clerk, Mr. Lamb, was not present at the meeting ; neither were the chairman, vice-chair man, nor any guardian, prepared to give evidence on the subject. On searching the books containing the rough minutes of the board, from which they are fairly copied into the minute-book, an entry was found, of which I inclose a copy. It appears that Joseph M'Dougal, who is now only twenty years of age, has been continued in his situation during nearly three years, under this provisional ap pointment, which it was stated had never received the sanction of the Commissioners. As, however, the appointment, whether provisional or per saeent, entailed, as regarded the care and treat ment of the children entrusted to the charge of the indi vidual accepting the appointment, the same duties and resposibilities, I did not consider the objection of a nature to affect or stay my proceedings. I ,inclose the d e p os i t i ons , ta k en upon oat h , of S arah Muspratt, of Thomas Charles Westlake, Esq., of Charles Muspratt, of Robert Thomas Latham, Esq., of William Austin, of Charles Pilgrim, and of Mr. James Blythe, the present governor of the workhouse; from which it clearly appears that towards the end of October, a short time before Mr. Price, the lat, governor, was succeeded in his office by Mr. Blythe, on a Saturday, the day of meeting of the board of guardians, the two boys, Charles Muspratt and William Austin, being then both more than 14 years of a ge , were violently beaten bey Joseph M'Dougal, the former with a cane, the latter with a cane and a strap having a buckle at the end of it ; that Harry White, an older lad, having interfered to prevent Joseph M'Dougal from continuing the castigation, a squffie ensued, during which H arr y Whit e an d I saac White, his brother, received blows on the nose and mouth from Joseph M'Dougal, and that Charles Muspratt was thrown with his head on the stone floor; that the noise and clamour brought to the school-room various persons, viz., Sarah Muspratt, Elizabeth Morrison, the nurse, Mrs. Price, the matron, and Mr. Price the master; that about this time the board of guardiars had assembled; that Sarah Muspratt applied to Mr. Price to be allowed to go before the board, to state what had hap pened to her brother; that Mr. Price promised that he would call for her at the proper time, but that he did not do so, and that she did not subsequently make any complaint to the visiting Committee, or to any one else, on the subject, until she appeared before the Committee of the House of Commons. It appears also that the reason why Joseph M'Dougal chastised Charles Muspratt and William Austin was, that they had not learned by rote a certain task set to them as a punishment on the pre ceding day. Lastly (on the statement of Mr. Westlake and Mr. Latham), that the blows inflicted on the back and head were severe blows, although not of a nature to require medical treatment. Joseph M‘Dougal does not deny the facts thus deposed to, nor has he brought any witnesses to disprove them, although furnished by my instruction, on the 16th of July, with a statement of the charges about to be brought against him. _ • _ Joseph 'Al'llnugal, therefore, has been clearly proved guilty of an infract i on of articles 47. 48, 49, and .51, of the workhouse rules, in the cases of Charles 141uspratt, William • Austin, William Taylor, and James Taylor, althouA it does not appear that the statement made by Sarah Muspratt is literally correct. It further appears; that upon other occasions and recently Joseph M•Doug,al has been in the habit of strik ing the boys for trifling faults, without reporting the same to the master of the workhouse, as prescribed by article 51 of the workhouse regulations. On the other hand, it does not appear that in other respects the children have been ill-treated or neglected as regards their instruction. Their progress in writing and arithmetic has been considerable under Joseph 261‘flougal, and is above the average attainment in these respects, of children even of a higher class. I inquired of the children, out of his presence, whether any of them desired to complain of any ill-treatment on his part; but none were disposed to do so, although the question was put repeatedly. lam inclined to attribute the con duct of Joseph M'Dougal rather to youth and want of proper control, than to a harsh or tyrannical disposition. The next charge brought against Joseph M'Dougal was, That provisions had been sold by Joseph M'Dougal, and that the sister of Jane Grace had bought bread from him. It. appears on the oath of Jane Grace, that about four years tigo she saw her sister, then fourteen years of age, and an inmate of the workhouse, in the girl's class, a short time before her supper, give Joseph APDougal, who was not at the time in the office of schoo!master, one penny for a square piece of bread, which she supposes to have been one of the women's supper rations. Joseph Al‘Dougat denies the fact, but it does not ap pear probable that Jane Grace, against whose character there is no rept'oach, would deliberately perjure herself by making such a statement falsely. She adds, more over, that she never knew or heard of another ease in which Joseph M‘Douv,al had sold provisions of any kind. I am of opinion, therefore, that Joseph M'Dougal did about four years ago, holding no official situation at the time, sell to Jane Grace's sister a certain piece of bread of about six ounces weight, for one penny, whether be longing to the provisions of the house or not does not ap pear ; and that there is no proof whatever of his having sold provisions the property of the guardians on this or any other occasion. It appears, lastly, that about the same time, viz., be fore he was app o i n t e d t o t h e o ffi ce o f sc h o olmaster, and holding at the time no office of any kind under the Poor law Commission. Joseph M'Dougal did commit an as sault upon Jlne Grace by beating her, and also upon William Waldron ; but as I have no authority to in quire into offences committed by persons not employed in the administration cf :the poor-laws, I did not feel justified in making further inquiries into these cases, nor indeed was it necessary to do so, to carry out the instructions received by me from the Commissioners. The evidence given in support of the first charge ap pears to me sufficient to show that Joseph M'Dougal has forfeited all claim to one of the most essential qua lifications of a workhouse schoolmaster, namely, a com mand of temper ; but the evidence of his zeal given by the progress of the children under his charge, and the testimony of the master of the workhouse as to his ge neral good conduct, to which may be added the consi deration of his youth, will probably induce the Com missioners to be satisfied with accepting his resignation without inflicting on him the serious stigma and conse quences of a dismissal. - I wish to call the attention of the Commissioners to the fact that neither the schoolmaster nor schoolmis tress of the Andover workhouse reside in the work house ; a circumstance which I consider as very disad vantageous to the children. I have, &c., (Signed) G. PIGOTT, Assistant Poor-law Commissioner. The Poor-law Commissioners. Lon,ion. RAILWAY SL{ AR E MARKETS. MANCHESTER, SEPTIMBEA 19.
