COMPARATIVE co.NSUNIPTION OF CATTLE IN LONDON AND PARIS. Previous to the proposed reconstruction on more convenient and extended plans of the public markets of Paris, a counnivsion was appointed to visit several neighbouring countries in order to inspect and report upon the manner in which market accommodation was elsewhere provided. Tho rnarket-places of Liverpool, Birkenhead, and Newcastle•on-Tyne attracted particu larly the attention of the members of this commission. the Those of London app ear t o h ave surprised them by inferior, inappropri a t e sca l e on which they are rtructed for the greyest metropoli s in Europe. The he cattle market of Smithfield, 1!i the very centr e of &large city, provoked on the part of the commissioners certain remarks, which, courttoasly couched as they are, do not redound to the credit of the corporation, whose "feudal prerogatives" these inquiring foreigners soon found were the principal obstacle to the transference o the market to a more comm o di ous locality. "Smith field," they observe, "is the beau ideal of disorder. The driving off the oxen sold, the departure of troops of g sheep, the frighte ne d an i ma l s which esespe, the baikin of the dogs, the sh ou t s o f the drivers a produce a racket and conf us i on th e most frightful to hear, and the most tumultuous co mmot i on that can be seen.We may add that the streets in th e v i c i n i ty, which are on the way to the slaughter-houses of N ewgate-market, and the stalls where the unsold beasts are kept, are encumbered with animals, and rendered filthy with ordure, which the foot of the citizen nlnnot escape." The following is the comparative statement of the number of cattle brought to Smithfield, and to the markets for supplyini, Paris, in the year 1842, but doubtless a misprint for 1844, as given by the commissioners:-- Bullocks. Sheep. Calves. Swine. Smithfield 169,995 1,7 07,196 30,489 30,000 Poissy Sceaux Paris 9,49 a 14 4.9,012 The exceis of cattle brought to Smithfield over the three Paris markets was, therefore, 28,037 bull,cks, 1,021,372 sheep, and 30,000 swine ; the Paris markets, on the other hand, show an excess of 63,876 calves. The pork consumed in Paris is probably killed and pre pared in the provinc es , f or t h e consumption of ham, alone, which is a favourite food of the Parisians, must be very considerable. Assumieg that all London was supplied from Smithfield, the disparity of animal food absorbed in the two capitals would disappear at once, lonsidering that thellesulation of P ar i s at one million, half that of LondsMly. The different gastronomic references of the two peoples are sufficiently indicated iy the animal races on ahica respectively they feed, ,nd will be readily appreciated by those conversant with to nature of the living and culinary preparations of each. • ._ Thl ship Carolina has arrived in he Eatt India t)ocks from Vrtst, having cri board 5,600 slates, 70 boxes of in plates, six bundles of leather, 135 bales, 18 casks and 186 cases general merchandise, 100 kegs of paint, and 149 bottles of oil, saved from the vessel Elizabeth, which was wrecked off Brest, on the coast of France, during her outward bound voyage to the Cape of Good Hope, with a cargo of Pritiah merchandise. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. MALTh, JUNE 23.—The engineers of her Majesty's steamer Beds, at Constantinople, have got themselves into a sad scrape, and are at present under arrest. They will be relieved by others from ➢lalta, and, till then, the steamer cannot leave that station. It appears, from what can be collected, that on going on shore Lieutenant Hire ordered the forge to be brought on deck, and on his return found that the first engineer had ordered it below, as the deck was not the place for it, and refused to allow it to be brought up again. His conduct being reported, he was placed under arrest. The second engineer was then ordered to have it brought on deck, but he stated it. was under the control cf the first engineer, and could not bring it on deck without his order. He was placed under arrest, and a similar scene was enacted with the third. It would appear that these three men have been offered employment under thq Turkish Government, and were con sequently anxious to be dismissed her Majesty's service to enter that of his Ottoman Majesty. They have, however, miscalculated their strength, and may be tried for mutinous conduct instead of disobedience of orders. The French steamer from Constantinople arrived this morning, and proceeds direct to Marseilles at ten A.M. The direct boat from Alexandria is expected to-morrow, and will proceed to Marseilles. The India mail may also be expected to-morrow. Her Majesty's ship the Orestes, from Corfu, arrived here this morning.; she will proceed home in a few days, carry ing invalids, 8.;c., and the Boniiroorn marbles will be shipped on board her. On mooring, the Orestes saluted the Vice- Admiral. DISTRIBUTION OF THE MEDITERRANEAN SQUADRON. In Malta Harbour—The Ceylon, 12, receiving-ship, bear ing the flag of Rear-Admiral Sir L.

MAIDSTONE. —The hops appear to be getting the upper hand of all their enemies, the unusual strength of bine re sisting every adverse influence, and giving p rom i se o f a larger crop than co u ld possibly hays been imagined a few weeks back. EAST FARLEIGII.TiIe hops in this parish are doing won ders ; there are a few lice to be found on a few hills in some grounds around the outsides ; but, on the whole, they cannot appear more healthy. A full average crop may be expected._ Weer FARLEIGH —The hops here are in a very precarious state; some grounds are very lull of 'car-nil - I. The result is very uncertain. itaumiNo.—The hops in this parish are in a very uncertain state; there is a great increase of vermin. OTIIA3I.—Many of our plantations are tolerably clean, and promise an average crop. while others remain foul; among such a half crop is very doubtful. The midsummer branches are unusually forward, fast putting forth the pin; among some of the early sorts burr may be found, consequently we anticipate a very early hopping. LECNIIAM.—The hops in this neighbourhood have gone off very much during the past week. Some grounds are quite past recovery, and all the rest are so infested with vermin that anything like a crop is extremely doubtful. Citaxartoox.—ln the Weal district the plantations are improving. SEVENOALS.—AIbeit the refreshing showers and heavy thunder, we are sorry to notice but little, if any improve ment in the '° ' plantations • the bine will is short, and as full of verm i n as ever, in fact, ' looking worse instead of better. Several pieces we have noticed in the adjoining parishes, where the bine has been cut up and the poles pulled up, above the hill ; on the ridge we are, however, happy to say there is a most decided and great improvement ; but as to laying the duty, as stated by some of your contemporaries, at 130,0001., we should feel under all circumstances disin clined to back 100,000/. Wrnn/tat, Pnavriat., SIIIPBOURNE, AND 10111 . 11A1L—The hop plantations in the upper part of Wrotham, above the London -road, continue to suffer wary considerably from the effect of the blight. The plantations round Crouch, Crow hurst, Clagate-cross, and I'laxtol, present a more healthy appearance. The plant around Shipbourne, ann. some parts of Ightham is very much cut up. Generally, where the bine is weak. the vermin have stuck, and little hopes can be entertained of i•s recovery; but where the bine is strong and vigorous, there certainly is nut much fly, and same evident improvement may be seen. The cold nights of the past weak have, however, had a chilling effect upon the plant generally. The good-humoured critical correspondent of the Sussex Express, on whose musically-attuned ear irregularity of number appears to sound ~r atingly, and whose highly re• tined taste cannot allow of extravagance of comparison, or anything approaching to hyperbolic description, poetical or prosaic, if at all sceptical relative to the state of the planta tions in this locality, would probably be gratified in walking, over the Cherry House Field of Mr. tt. S. Thompson, of Max tol, and the grounds around generally, particul ar l y t h ese o f Mr. T. Knowles, of Itoughway, and the Messrs. Goidings, of the Tree and Ashenden Farms, where the bile may be seen over the Taft. poles and down again to the ground, blooming, healthy, vigorous, and gay, we wish we could add, free from vermin. TUNDRIDGE.—Great improvement has taken place this week in the quality of gardens about us. There is a great deal of vermin still, but not a tithe of what we had three weeks back. The thunder -storm a few weeks since seems to have cleansed them and done great service. Still only a small crop is expected, as the bine is very weak generally. SUSSEX.—Our accounts from this district are still as un favourable as ever. FARMIANL—There is a general improvement here, which also partially extends to the country around. By some the duty is rated at 200,000/. ~--~ ~; ( ROYAL HARWICH YACHT CLUB.

A large meeting of the Club will be held at Harwich on Saturday next, the 4th instant, to make final arrangements for the regatta. IVALWORTFI LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC; INSTITUTION. O.i We Ines lay a general meeting was held at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, with a view of promoting the interests of the above institution, and to consider the propriety of building premises suitable for the institution, including a committee-room, clas s - rooms, t h eatre, and reading-room. The chair was taken at seven o'clock by 'l'. Wyse, Esq., UP. Before entering on the proceedings of the evening, the Secretary to the institution read several notes of apology fur non-attendance, from M. Miles, Esq, M.P., Mr. Kemble, Ur. Sergeant Talfeurd, the Right Hon. T. B. 31ocaulay, M.P., Dr. Grainger, and several other gentlemen. The CHAIRMAN addressed the meeting, and said, that having had the honour of being called upon to preside over the meeting, he felt no other difflen!ty in addressing them than the endeavour to avoid those common-places which must necessarily be expected, more or less, on such an occasion. In the foundation of a lite• rary and scientific institution they were only about to do that which, in every part of the country, was about to be, or had been, done in the spirit for improving the present progress of civilisation. Such objects had been had in view in England and Scotland for a series of years, and they were about to establish such an institution in a part of the metro polls which more than any other called for and would re cehre benefit from it, and which therefore was the more likely to receive the full benefit of the sympathies of the meeting. They were about to bear their part in the great progrese of mental improvement whi c h was t h e char acteristic of the present day. There was perhaps ro part of the world which mowed faster in the march of civilisation than the great me , tropoli3 of England ; but even in every other continental nation such a movement was to be observed. Whether the movement was to terminate in a gradual de• cline of its energies —whether it was to continue in progress without an,- material benefit, or whether it was to terminate in a glorious increase of knowledge, was for the philosopher to determine, but it was for them and for all mankind to do their best to avoid such a catastrophe. There was every probability of their efforts having a successful ter mination, and they would have the gratification of being the means of distributing knowledge amongst their fellow-crea tures. If they looked to the physical efforts of mankind, was there one a mongs t t h em w h o cou ld po i nt out any other age superior to the present in such efforts. In all eimetries it was the same ; attention was in every quarter directed to the development of these sciences which could not fail to bind the social system more closely in every part of the world, and place the lowest in the land on the same path of improvement as the noblest. The railway system, and the improvements in all other means of communication had giiren to society a more rapid means of communication, and coneegnently a better mea::s of trans mittirg to each other the thoughts and ideas on every point of improvement and reform. Knowledge seemed about to be universally diffused, and they were about to add th e i r strength to the general effort. They might have doubts and difficulties, but if they pursued the pillar of fire—of know !edge— with unwearied zeal, they would be sure to obtain the fultilment of their desires. They were ale ut to effect a comintieioe bet iveen all classes of Ines) who would join in the pursuit of knowledge, and he wished to see in the classes of the institution all politic.;) diarences remembered only in the spirit of charity. He wished to see all religious differences remembered with a truly religious feeling, and with a spirit of toleration, remembering Ilium who said, "Ili my Father's house there are many mansions." 'Under such feelings of mutual charity end benevolence, the institution could not fail of succese—(The lion. Geatleman sat down amidst much applait-e.) • The 11ev. J.W. WATSON then read the report of the corn ' mittee. It stated that the society at present hal, with very limited means, contrived to accumulate a library compris ing 1,303 yolurnee.—(Bear, hear.) They had on their table seven daily pape rs , thi r t een weekly papers, fourteen monthly publications, and five quarterly ones.—( Hear, hear.) They had established classes for the tuition of French, drawing, Germaa ' and music, and in th e course of the last year they had had twenty-five lectures delivered on various scientific subjects. They had done all this with 400/ —( !tear, hear.) The main drawback on the society was their inability to ob tain premises which could contain the rooms requisite for their convenience. They were compelled to have their different rooms in different localities, and that inconvenience threat ened the institution with serious results. The committee had therefore, according to their instructions, by a vote of a public meeting of members, taken into their consideration the subject of building suitable premises. An eligible site for the premises had been fixed upon at the west end of Carter-street, I Valivorth-road, near to both Walworth and Kennington ' arid easily accessible from all di rect i ons . T he t nure was leasehold, for ninety-nine year', at a low rent. The cost was to be about 1,800/., one-third being obtained in donations previously to the commencement of the work. A. large bath was to be provided, capable of ccntaining from seven to nine hundred persons, which would be available on hire for any and every useful purpose ,u :der the direction of the Committee of the institution. A reading-room, class rooms, a public library, and other conveniences, were to be pro vided in lieu of the very scanty and insufficient provision for those purposes at present made. It might be added, that for the present imperfect accommodation an annual rent of more than 50/. was incurred, without the means of creating returns to the society by letting any part of the premises ; whereas the increased accommodation would not cost, including in terest of the su;n to be laid out, much more than double that rental, with the means of' creating returns nearly, - if not quite, sufficient to cover the amount. That consideration was the more important, since the whole revenue of the society, after paying necessary expenses, would be employed in aug menting to the public the advantages originally contemplated by its establishment. The property was to be duly secured in trust for the society, an d every f ac i l i ty was to be afforded for making it available for a thoroughly useful 'educational eetablishinent, with library, news-room, reading-room, &c. The committee and other members had commenced a con tribution, by sums collected in two or three days, amounting together to 1101. They hoped that every f r i en d o f t h e moral and social interests of the neighbourhood would follow this example. 11. Hawes, Esq., M.P.. addressed the meeting in a neat speech, setting forth the benefits which would arise from the formation and foundation of a society like the present, which could have its own hall and lecture-rooms. He did not swish to force upon them the necessity of contributions, for they all knew that an institution like the present could not exist without them. He hoped that the present scheme would not meet a fate like the one called the Surrey Institu tion, which from want of being properly supported had fallen away, and its ball was falling into ruin. The Hon. Gentle man then moved the first resolution :—" That this meeting has heard with pleasure of the establishment and progress of the Walworth Literary and Scientific Institution, and earnestly recommends that increased efforts be made for the extension of its benefits." Mr. NICHOLAS GEDGC seconded the motion. He said he hoped that the exertions of the members of the institution would hot slacken because 3GOI. had been already raised out of the 800/., which was the portion of capital necessary to commence with. He hoped that, they would be prepared on a future occasion to come forward to support the institution and repeat their donations; and he for one would come for ward again with his subscription.--(dear.) The CHAIRMAN then put the resolution, which was carried unanimously. The Rev. Joax Emote:Tr, in moving the second resolution, said that if it were passed by the meeting according to the pre cise words contained in it, all those who were present would be pledged to sustain the institution, not to their ruin, but to the extent of their abilities, without injury to themselves or their families. They must necessarily see that. such an in stitution as the present would enlighten the minds of its fre quenters as much as the gas lamps in the streets enlightened all around them. He believea that gas lamps had done more for the morality of large towns than all the benches of ma gistrates that ever were.—(Laughter.) The evil-doers were now warned, that in the event of any violation of the law their detection was certain—(l-Tear, hear)—and in the same manner their institutions dispelled mental darkness, and com pelled men to avoid the disgrace of ignorance. The mob were spoken of as being ignorant, and what were they to do with them ?—were they to stand aloof and point them out as " the mob ?" Were they to be handed over to the police? and if they were not strong enough, were the guards to be called to them ? Were they to decimate them ? No, they were to dispel their ignorance b y the formation of such institutions, and bring them closer to the higher classes in knowledge and cultivation.—( Hear, hear.) Such institutions would not ouly be beneficial to the poor man, bat would operate sensibly on public men, whose con duct would be judged by a people whose understandings were enlightened by their frequenting societies like the pre sent. Ile would conclude by submitting the following reso lution to the meeting :--'‘Ttiat this meeting hails with special gratification the intention to raise a suitable building for the various purposes of the institution, and pledges itself to give its utmost assistance in the prosecution of that design." The Rev. J. W. WATSON briefly seconded the resolution, which was then put by the Chairman, and carried unani mously. Mr. J. S. NornwnrrT then, at the request of the Chair man, read the list of contributions to the institution, giving a total of 300/. Mr. DAVID 'atm, in moving the third resolution—" That as the proposed lecture hall will be open to the public for all purposes riot inconsistent with the civil and moral welfare of the community, the committee are entitled to the support and co-operation of all classes in procuring its erection"-- , stated to time meeting that the principal cause of his being called upon to address them was his being Secretary to the "Greenwich Literary and Scientific Institution." That institu tion had arisen from almost nothing. Its office was originally merely a small room, and its library was contained in a small cupboard, anti the books were only the gifts of the members who belonged to it. The institution had now a hall fit to contain 1,000 persons, and the institution itself had spelt no less a stun than 5,000/. in useful purpose-. He would there fore recommend the meeting not to be discouraged, however slight the commencement might be, but to give their stre • nuens support to the committee in the laudable object in view.

The sport which had been selected for the finishing day consisted of the great four-oared races, with a " scratch" eight for a finale.

The Rev. SAMUEL. Gr:Exx seconded the resolution. In a ' brief speech he impressed on the meeting the necessity of supporting a medium through which information and instruc tion were to be conveyed. The new institution would be such a medium, and its rooms were to be placed in a spot or in a parish containing no less than 60,000 inhabitants, who would thus all have an opportunity of deriving benefit from it.

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY MORNING, JULY LAW IN TELLIGEN CE. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, J u l y 2. (Sittings before Mr. Justice IVIGHT3tAx and a Special Jury.) SIMPSON V. MAIIGI23ON. This was an action brought by Mr. Simpson, the auc tioneer, to recover the commission for the sale of certain pro perty for the defendant. It was complained by the latter that the charge was excessive, and that the amount sought was more than the plaintiff was fairly entitled to for the ser- Yice performed. 226/. had been paid into Court as a sufilcient satisfaction of all demands. After the examination .of some witnesses on the point at issue, the jury returned a verdict o f 2001 . for the plaintiff rover and above the amount paid into Cour - . (BJore a Common Jury.) MATTNIEWS AND ANOTHER U. BIRD. Thin was an action instituted by Messrs. Matthews and Vim's, of Southampton, to recover from Mr. Bird, solicitor, of Winchester, the sum of 350/. on two bills of exchange. The defendant pleaded the statute of limitations. The whole case turned upon the interpretation cf certain letters between the parties within the •six years, which the plaintiffs con tended amounted to a promise of payment, but which Coun sel for the defendant denied. A verdict for the defendant was given, with leave for the plaintifrs to move that the verdict be set aside and one en tered for them, should the Court be of opinion that there was sufficient evidence to take the case out of the statute of limi tations. • power the officers of the law—when we censi.ler the feuds which may be produced among the men thnn selves, and which the records of this Court show were the results of this ;light's proceedings ; and when we consider that it is impossible to say what the degree of violence and outrage that may be committed by a mob once set in motion for the purposes here stated, it is plain that a sentence must in this case be pronounced, which shall teach the large body of labnurers now employed in different parts of the country. that the slightest disturbance on their part will lead to most summary and exemplary punishment. They must be taught that their numbers afford them no protection against the hands of the cri minal justice of the country. They must be kept in restraint;- they must be kept in awe of the law. This object can only be attained by snaking an example of those who shall break aryl violate the law in a manner so open, so violent, and so alarming, as has been disclosed in this case, to the extent to which these prisoners bale pleaded guilty. his Lordship concluded by sentencing each of the prisoners to be transported for the period of seven years. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. John Connelly, a lad, was charged before Mr. Alderman Moon with embezzling 10/. 2s, the amount of four Post office money orders he was intrusted to receive for his em ployer, Mr. Cleave, a boo!tseller, in Shoe-lane, Feet street. Mr. Cleave stated that the prisoner had been in his service about live weeks, when, en the 2d of June, he sent him tr the Post-office to receive the amount of come money order As the prisoner did not return in reasonable time, tb plainant became alarmed, ascertained he had received the money, and gave notice to the police. As the Whitson holydav fairs were then being held, constables were dis patched to Greenwich and Stepney, but nothing was heard of the prisoner till he surrendered to the police voluntarily on Monday night. E. J. Andrews, policeman 227, said the prisoner came up to him sod asked him to give him a lodging. IVitneAs asked him for what reason. The prisoner said he had been in the service of Mr. Cleave, and had run away because he had lost 10/., the amount of some Post-office orders ' out of his pocket. Witness as k e d hi m w h ere h e h a d been? lie re plied he had been to Uxbridge. A clerk from the Post-office proved the cashing of the orders. IMPORTANT RAILWAY CASE.—This was an action to ree:)ver the sum of 141. 17s. •Itl. for work and labour done by the plaintiff, as a surveyor to the Bristol and Daver Railway. The defendant, who is the solicitor to the Coral any, r 1 ~ .ailed that he was not indeb ed. Mr. FISM stved the case. The plaintiff, as stated, was the surveyor to the Company ; and in November last was employed by the defendant to send down a person to point out the different parts of the line, to enable him to ma'se out the books of reference, which was the duty of the solicitor, and ho was now charged at two guineas a-day and expenses, for an assistant sent down. ' Alexander Smith proved that he went down to Kings• ' dare, by direction of the llaintiff, to point out the starting and ending points on th e different portions of the plans. Did nut sea defead:.nt at that time, but called on him afterwards, and defendant said he did pot want him to do any more. Cro:s examined—Wits a farmer and surveyor at Amersharn, Sussex. He coal' nut say exactly what part he did. Was at work for four days from the 21st ' of November. Mr. Bushy, engineer, was called to show that for making the book of reference at that tim,‘, in Novem ber, two gnineas a day was a very moelerate charge. Crosso xamiaed--If the attorney sent for assistance it was unreasonable to expert the surveyor %weld send assistance without bring paid. llis duty was done when he sent in the plans, and the attorney ought not to und , rtake the ref: mete if not c. , mpet,nt. Mr. Whine], the engineer t) the Conn,--any, pro ve d that defendant appli e d to h i m to trotM Vine t rend some one to assist the defendant's assi'itants, as the time pressed to get the plans in under the order of the House of Commons. In witness's judgment, the 1 laps were sufficient for the purpose of tl - e reference, but they were not complete, as the base and deviation lines were not marked, nor could it be till the sections were completed. The plans were sent in pieces, as time pressed. The defendant, wbo conduct.d the case in person, con tended that the reference could not be made without the explanation of the plans, and therefore that he had a right to claim the assistance of the surveyor who had been employed by the en„ineer. Several witness- s were called for the defendant, who all agreed that the plans were very imperfect ; in many instances the divisions of fields were not marked, whole rows of houses left out, and some marked not in, or a great way off from the spot ; and one witness said that in the neighbourhood of Newbury he believed, and so an old inhabitant believed, the plan had been made from an old plan. Mr. Spicer, a solicitor, said he had had great expe rience in railway affairs ; such plans would have been sent back to the survej or to amen ', and it was impos sible to complete a reference by them. He did not think the attorney was liable. Mr. Hohnes then tendered a paper to show that de-, fondant himself had only demanded of him about 91, and therefore plaintiff had no right to pay him, and add the difference as profit. The UNDER-SHERIFF refused to admit this document in evidence, and left it to the jury to say whether the plaintiff had been engaged by defendant. The jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff for the full ie coin The prisoner, in his defence, repeated the story that he had lost the money through a hole in his pocket on his return from the Fast-odic.. He missed the money on Ludgate-hill, and returned to the Pest-office by the same route in the hopes of finding or hearing of it. Mr. Cleave did, not give any credit to this story. a sharp lad, and would have given notice to the police. Mr. Alderman MOON asked what wages were given to the lad? Mr. Cleave said he had !Os. per week. Ho suppose( the prisoner was living at home with his father, but this wa not the ca , e. Mr. Alderman MOON asked if he rcluired any character with him when I , e engoged him? Mr. Cleave stated that he had a very gt:od character with him. The prisoner had been trusted with money at his fl , rmer place, but he had been out of place some time. Mr. Alderman - MOON questioned the lad closely as to what he had been doing from the day he stet ted off. The prisoner said he waked immediately to Uxbridge, and slept in the hay-fields two nights. He then obtained two days' work at a Mr. Smith's at Southwell, and received half a-crown a day. He continued to sleep in the fields, and sold his boots and other things to obtain victuals. Mr. Alderman Moon said, if it was true that the prisoner sought and obtained work two days after he left town, it was strongly corroborative of the truth of his statement that be had really lost the money. If he had sto!en the money, he would have had some left two days after he ran away. It was important for the character of the lad, as well as the attainment of justice, that the case should be cleared up, and he therefore directed that the officer should write to the in spector of the T division, stationed at Uxbridge, begging him to cause inquiry to be made whether the prisoner had worked for Mr. Smith, and whether he appeared to bedestitute, or to have means. He was anxious that the truth of the prisoner's story should be completely tested, and he remanded him till Saturday. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. George Johnson, a young man of shabby appearance, was charged with uttering a counterfeit sovereign. It appeared that between nine and ten on Wednesday night. the prisoner entered the shop of Mr. Wm. Shean, of No. 44, Upper Marylebone-street, Oxford street, haberdasher and hosier, and asked to look at some cotton half-bose, which were shown him, and he selected four pair, directing them, with change for a sovereign, to be immediately sent to No. 28, Cirencester-place, Fitzroy-square. Two of the prosecu tor's daughters took the goods as directed. In Cirencester place they were met by the prisoner in company with ano ther man; he said he would not trouble them to go any fur; ther, and gave the eldest Miss Shean a sovereign, and she handed him the change, 16s. On sounding it on OF pave ment she discovered it to be bad, and at the instant the pri soner and his companion set off running; she pursued, calling " Stop thief," and after following him through several streets he jumped into a cab, and was being driven off at a rapid rwe, when police-constable Hughes, 114 E, succeeded in stopping the horse and taking him into custody. The prisoner said he did not wish to make any answer to the charge. Mr. Holmes 'wiled for the record to be held, on the ground that the document ought to have be, , n admitted in evidence, ; and further, that the whole time charged for had not been proved in evidence, and that the rate allowed was 31 guineas for three days, which was con. flictory with the evidence. 'rho UNDER-SIiERIF F said to would hold the writ four days. lIGII COURT OF JUSTICIARY. TIIE RIOTERS EDINBURGH AT FUSHIE BRIDGE. The Court met on Thursday, for the purpose of pass img sentence on Matthew Clark, Patrick Burns, Felix Murray, and Patrick Savage, who on Monday pleaded guilty to charges of mobbing and rioting, and assault to the effusion of blood. The judges present were the Lord Justice Clerk, Lord Mackenzie, and Lord Monerieff. Tbe plea of the prisoners having been read, The LORD JUSTICE CLERK said, the duty of the Court n this case is in every respect a very painful one. The unfortunate men at the bar appear to have been engaged in the exercise of their honest calling—in regular and full employment, and therefore in comfortable circum stances —up to the time when the lawless and violent proceedings took place which have placed them at this bar, and which must lead to the infliction of very severe punishment that may materially, if not entirely, alter the character and prospects of their future lives. The case is also extremely painful, because no circumstances have been disclosed to enable us to draw any distinction between the case of any of the prisoners, or to make, in respect of any difference in their cases, tiny exception in favour of any of them from the sentence which we feel it our duty to award. The care has been most anxiously considered by the whole court, and the sen tence which I am about to pronounce is the result of the concurring opinion of the whole judges of this court. Whether in the exercise of the royal prerogative of mercy it may appear that there are any circumstances in the case which enable those to whom it is en trusted the duty of advisirg the Crown—on any ground satisfactory to them --to draw any dis tinction which may be favourable to any of the prison ers, or nary lead to tee iminend any of them for fa vourable consideration in the exercise of the royal trerogative—is of course a matter for their consideration alone. We must remember that i i Cee administration of the criminal law of the land we cannot proceed upon grounds which can only be taken into consideration in the exercise of that prerogative. Our duty is to ad minister the criminal law of the land, and to say that, according to that law, is the amount of punishment due for the commission of this particular crime, and which shall at the same time be adequate to pi event the com mission of such crimes in time to come. The only knowledge which the court has of the circumstances of this case, is derived from 'what appears on the face of the indictment. But it is a case of a serious and alarming character, and it is quite plain that any punishment that would not produce due effect upon others, might only tend to encourage the repetition of similar outrages, by misleading individuals who tray be engaged in the perpetration of such crimes, as to the light in which they are regarded by the law. In consider ing the charges to a hich the prisoners have pleaded guilty, we have laid aside entirely the charge of com mitting a more heinous crime, and have taken care that our minds should not for a moment be influenced even by the mention in the indictment of the charge of murder.' His Lordship here read that part of the libel regarding the attack on the police constables, and on the temporary police station house, for the purpose of liberating two of the labourers who had been confined in it on a charge of stealing two watches from a pedlar, and to the assemblage of a mob for the very purpose of overpowering the police, and then his Lordship pro model. It is no small eggravation of such an offence as this, that it was committed by labourers, who, for the purpose of liberating companions who had been confined, not for some accidental breach of the peace, or some casual disturbance, which might have been thoneht a trivial matter in the eyes of seine of their comrades; but fir the purpose of liberaing men who had been charged with the base crime of theft, which ought not to have excited the sympathy of the honest and well-dispoeed portion of the labourers, knowing well that if innocent they would obtain their liberty in due time; if guilty that they would be dealt with accord ing to law. His Lordship again referred to the libel, and read the part of it which related to the assault on Veitch the policeman after the mob had liberated their two comrades. His Lordship then continued—That the pri soners have acted under most judicious advice in putting in their plea of guilty to the extent which they did, no one can doubt, b ecause, whatever part the prisoners took in the violent p roceed i ngs of the mob, it is quite, clear that full details o f t h e evidence must have made their case of even a more redeem character by disclosing more fully the num b ers, character, and proceedings of the mob, and the nature of the implements with which they were armed, and rendered the sentence more severe than even that which the Court feels compelled to award as the case now stands. It is not easy to conceive a case of a more aggravated and serious character than the present. We see that proper measures bad been taken by the authorities for the preservation of the peace in consequence of the assemblage of a ber of railway lab ourers in this particular l oca li ty. Constables were station e d f or the purpose o f ipaintaining whin tranquillity, protectin g property, and,real num neceesary, carryin g the law into ex ecut i on. These consta bl es were assailed, overpowered, dcforced, and the police station-house broken into, by a body of men whom these measures were intended to keep in mein-. By overcoming the police, they set at li liberty those charged with theft. They attempted to set themselves above the law, as if none was entitled to charge theist with crime, or to be enabled to apprehend any one of them when they have committed an offence against the law. We all know the danger of such cases, where thousands of persons are employed within a few miles— all able• bodied and powerful men , and who, from the kind of instr umen t s emp l oye d in their work, have the means speedily of armi ng t h emselves with most formi dable we a p ons , congregated in a prrt of the country, tee, where no largo d e t ac h ment of police can ! - ,i3 expected to be provided, wed where it would be monstrous to expect that troops must he patrolling. in order to maintain the public peace. When we consichr all these things, and how easily such a number of parties could be brought together, and the mischief that might be done when they theamelyo Ab9Ye the IP', tend (Mem* $9 MX4 Constable Hughes said that no doubt the cabman was a confederate. It was the practice now of smashers to have a cab waiting at a certain spot to facilitate escape. If the prisoner was remanded he had no doubt but that he should be able to bring between twenty and thirty other cases against him. Mr. HARDWICK said he should fully commit him on the present charge, but order him to be brought up again this day week. WORSIIIP-STREET. An elderly woman named Mary Roscoe and her son, Jere miah .Rscoe ' were placed at the b ar b e f ore Mr. Broughton charged with stealing a vast quantity of miscellaneous pro perty from the premises of their late employer, Mr. Lancelei Rowlandson, an extensive carpet and furniture warehouse. man in the Whitechapel-road. Mr. Wakeling conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Pelham attended on behalf of the prisoners. The prosecutor stated that the prisoners had been upnards of two years in his service, the woman being employed to make up bed-ticks and bed-furniture at her own residence, and the male prisoner as a mattrass-maker on the premises at Whitechapel. During the time they were so in his service he missed property at various intervals in a most unaccount able manner, to an extent, he was satisfied, of nearly 1,5001., and in Easter week, having received information with regard to its disappearance which deeply affected the character of one of his shopmen, named Hutchinson, ho discharged him from his service. His suspicions had not at that time rested upon either of the prisoners; but in consequence of some thing which transpired he found it necessary to employ the police, and both the prisoners were in con sequence t a k en i nto custody. Thomas Mitchinson, the discharged shopman of the prose ' cutor, was now called, and stated that at the commence.. ment of the present year overtures were made to him by the female prisoner to induce him to connive at the surreptitious abstraction of goods from his employer's warehouse, to which he, with some hesitation, ultimately acceded, and the prisoners were afterwards in the habit of almost daily carry ing off pieces of carpeting, bed-furniture, Irish linen, and other property, wrapped up in bales of cotton the prisoners had to manufacture at the house of the female prisoner's husband. The witness added that he had received the sum of 12s. weekly front Mr , . It , scoc, as hush-money for the space of ten weeks, and had no doubt he should have con feinted to do so) had not his employer gained information of his being implicated in the system of robbery which had been carried on, and discharged hi.n from his service. George C-pstick, foreman to a furniture-dealer named Dawson, in Skelton-street, Greenwich, stated, that about Christmas last the male prisoner, in company of a young man named Bierman celled at his master's house, and, representing themselves as bedstead and mattrass-makers in the habit of supplying small brokers in the country, pro duced several pieces of Brussels carpet and bed-sicken, which were disposed of to his employer, who on subsequent occasions also purchased numerous other articles, comprising Persian carpeting, a qu an tit y o f h a i rc l ot h , mattrasses, and' other goods, the whole of which the prosecutor had since identified as his property. John Blenman, the young man above referred to, and who had formerly been in the service of the female prisoner's husband, stated that the whole of the carpeting and other property produced had been intrusted to him and the younger Roscoe by the latter person's mother, with directions to sell them far whatever they could ' ..et, and that having di s p ose d of them in the manner s worn to by the preceding witness, the whole of the proceeds had been handed over to the female prisoner. Police-constables Day and Smith, of the K division, pro duced in court an immense quantity of property, amongst which were 33 pieces of chintz furniture, 17 •bedticks, a package of Irish linen, and several rolls of carpeting, which they bad discovered upon searching the prisoners' lodgings, and all of which the prosecutor likewise identified as his. The prisoners, by the advice of Mr. Pelham, expressed their intention to reserve their defence, and were fully eon - mated for trial upon this charge. Mr. Wakeling then stated that he had another charge, almost as serious as that just taken, to prefer against the prisoners, at the instance of Mr. Jackson, a furniture dealer, in Shoreditch, by whom also the prisoners had been em ployed, and who had been robbed of property to the extent of nearly 2001., a considerable portion of which had been found in the possession of the accused; but in consequence of the absence of a cab-driver who had been employed by the prisoners to remove the goods, and who purposely kept out of the way, although he had been summoned to give evidence, he was unable to proceed with it, and must request the magistrate to order the accused to be brought up again upon a future occasion. Mr. liltOUQllT(bti said he had no hesitation in acceding to such an application, and intimated his intention to issue a warrant against the cab-driver to compel his attendance. The prisoners, who made no observation upon this state ment, were accordingly removed in the van. SOUTHWARK. George William Draper late clerk in • Government office, was placed at th ar before Mr. Seeker, for final examina tion, charged w' tering forged cheques at the banking house of Messrs. ie and Co., Cornhiil. The circumstances at tending the tittering of two cheques drawn on the above banking firm by the prisoner have al ready appeared. A clerk from Messrs. Currie now attended, and produced the cheques, one of which fir 51. 75., with the signature " Raples' and Son," was given by the prisoner to a Mr. Wills to get cashed, which he procured from a neigh bour, and handed over the 4proceeds to the prisoner. The transaction took place on the 4th ult., ( n which day it was given in evidence the prisoner surreptitiously obtained pos session of a blank cheque-book belonging to a stockbroker, and cut out several of the leaves, and having deposited the book in the place he found it, then filled some of them up, and by that means obtained cash on the assurance of their being genuine. The bank clerk stated that when the cheque given to Mr. NVills to get cashed was presented, it bore the signa ture of "Rapley and Son," and it was refused payment on the ground that no persons of that name had any account with the firm. Another cheque for 8/. 145., given by the prisoner to a Mr. Ch r i s t mas i u liquidation f a debt of 21., the former receiving the difference, was also produced, bearing the signature of " S. R. Parsons," and made payable at Messrs. Currie's. This cheque, as well as the former, was found to be a forgery, the assumed drawer having no effects there. In the course of the examination, it was stated that two other cheques were presented at Messrs. Currie's, and refused payment on the same grounds as those in the former eases. The blank cheques were evidently taken from the stock broker's book, as the ;lumbers followed those still remaining in the book. When the prisoner was asked if he wislled to say anything in answer to the charges preferred against him, he replied in the negative. saying that he should place himself in the hands of his solicitor, Mr. Roberts. Mr. SECKER said, that he should commit the prisoner on the two cases brought forward against him, and that if any other parties had charges of a similar description to preler they might do so, and have them incluied in the bill of in dictment at the Central Criminal Court. At the cwicltgivg Qt' the oxamiatim Air. li9berto made an application to have a set of gold studs and a silver-Leaded walking-stick, taken from the prisoner on his apprehmaion by the policeman, now delivered up to him. Mr. SECK.E3, in reply, said, that he saw no reason to refuse the application if they did not relate to the charges brought against him and were not purchased with part of the money it was alleged he had obtained by means of the forged cheques. Mr. Roberta said he was instructed that the articles spe cified were presents from friends to the prisoner, and bad no relation whatever to the alleged charges. On these grounds, therefore, the gold studs and walking-stick were delivered over by the policeman. THLIMES. e was nswer there might be, but. there was a prima fade case of a series of aggravated essaulte, and it was his duty to send it to the . Central Criminal Court. He called upon the de- , fendant to find bail, himself in 100 k, and two sureties of 50!. each, to appear at the next sessions. The case of Singleton,,tha Aeward, was next gone into. He is an intelligent man of colour, and stated-that he had been treated very cruelly indeed. On the 4th of May he was knocked down by the Captain, who drew a good deal of blood from him. Four or live days after that the captain horse whipped him with his riding-whip. Mr. 13nonumr —Were your clothes off or on at that time? Witness—l had my jacket off, ar.d my shirt sleeves were tucked up. The same day I was compelled to stow myself away in the hold, to prevent his beating me. Three Sundays before I got in here he knocked me down on the cabin floor, just after dinner, and stunned me, I don't know how long ; and then he called upon the chief mate to fee! my pulse, and ascertain if anything ailed me. That was after I recovered my senses and got into the pantry. doubling the Cape, and while the weather was very cold, be threw four buckets of water over me. It was raining at the time, and he deprived me of my bed, and obliged me to sit up in the pantry, and I was shivering with cold. The witnes3 then produced the shirt he wore when the first assault was com mitted. It was covered with marks of blond. Mr. IlnonErm , said the defendant must find bail in this case also, himself in 100/. and two sureties of 50/. each, to appear at the next sessions of the Central Criminal Court. The defendant was unprovided with the required s - ...veties, and was locked up. Mr. Green's Nassau Balloon descended on Monday evening in a field of barley belonging to Mr. Kynaston, is the parish of Stanford Rivers, Essex, a mile and a half from Ungar, and 21 miles from London, havin g t rave ll e d thi s di s lance, besides the entire length of London from east to west, and the farther distance that Cremorne Gardens are from the capital, in the short space of half an hour. The strong wind that was blowing throughout the afternoon obliged air. Green to use the heaviest of Ns grapnels and ropes, weighing together close upon 5 cwt., the difference between them and his mild weather apparatus being equivalent to the ordinary weight of three persons. Nevertheless, eight gentlemen be sides Mr. Green participated in the aerial flight G. Lawton, of Ditchley-park, Essex; il,r. J. J. Fryer of Kensington ;M. J. Armstrong, of the College Civil En gineers, Putney-; Mr. Powell. of Benson, Oxfords Lire; Mr. Sargent, of Fleet street; Mr. G. H. Davidson, the publisher of the well known Music . for the Million; Mr. Spencer, the soli citor; and Mr. Van Buren, of the Cremorne-gardens. The hal laon took a direction perhaps the best possible for a perfect view of London and all the adjacent places. It traversed the great and main lines of St. James's Park, Trafalgar square, the Strand, &c, and left London by crossing St. Maitiu's-le-Grand, Finsbury Shoreditch, &c., whence it continued its course over Hainault Forest, and the inter vening places, till it was made to descend as stated, after having had Chelmsford in close view, and the Nore, and an immense range of country of corresponding distance in the prospect. While over the grounds of Buckingham Palace, her Majesty's health was drunk, and the National Anthem was sung in a style that showed some of the party to be no mean vocalists. The next round of champagne was quaffed in respect to Ibrahim Pacha, who had done the aeronauts the honour of his company at starting. After landing, the balloon sustained some damage, from the boisterous state of the weather; but Mr. Green and his party reached London in safety, without ally accident to detract from the enjoy ment of the trip. BOTANIC GARDENS, REGENT'S PARK.—The last flower-show of the season, which took place in these gardens on Wednesday afternoon, was patronised by a large assemblage of aristocratic and fashionable vi-itors, although the lowering state of the weather was far from favourable to such under takings. The flowers were placed, as before, under awnings erected for the purposs, and there were many beautiful va rieties exhibited. Military bands were in attendance. The following is a list of the principal prizes awarded Gold medal to Mr. Barnes, gardener to G. W. Norman, Esq., and to Messrs. Fraser, Lea-bridge-road, for a collection of thirty stove and greenhouse plants ; to Mr. Don, gardener to F. G. Cox, Esq.; and to Messrs. Rollisson and Sons, Toot ing, for fifteen exotic orchids. 2d.

Baker, jun., at the Mulberry Tree, Mile-end Old Town, on the body of James Perryman, aged 42, late foreman to a fish salesman in Billing-gate market. The wife of the deceased was a very profligate woman, and on several occasions, when the deceased re • turned home, he found some strange man sitting there. About two years ago she was tried at th e Old B a il ey fur robbing a man of eight sovereigns, and on that occasion a quantity of arsenic was found in a cup in her house. She bad been heard to wish that her husband was dead, and to say that a fortune-teller had told her he was to die in the course of next year. Various alarming rumours had gone abroad that the deceased had been poisoned, and stispici, - na was directed against the wife. The deceased's relatives applied to the Coroner to hold an inquest,. and a post mortem examination was ordered to be made. Evidence was given as to the bad character of- the wife. The suspicion which rested on the wife was, however, cleared away by the evidence of Dr. Leatheby, lecturer on chemistry to the London Hospital, who deposed that he analysed the contents of the stomach, and found that the abdomen contained fluid indicating a previous state of inflammation. The liver was very mun c h decaved, and a very large abscess had formed. Witners also said that ho had carefully analysed the stomach, but could not detect any trace of poison, and he was of opinion that death was caused by the bursting of the abscess. The jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict in accordance with the medical testimony. MURDER AND SUICIDE AT THE BRIGHTON WORK HOUSE.—BRIG2ITON, TUESDAY.—This morning a horrid murder was committed at the workhouse bv a woman named Norman, on her infant, six months oil, and just weaned. It appears that the murderess had lately been subject to pains in her head, and this morning declined getting up with the other women on account of illness. About eight o clock she asks I for her child, which was, brought to her in bed, and immediately afterwards she ran out of the room with her throat dreadfully cut. On proceding to her room, it was found that the child's throat had likewise been cut in a shocking manner. The murderess died instantly, but the poor child lingered till four o'clock this afternoon, when it expired. S::e was a married wo:r,an, and about 30 years of age. Her buz , band is'a prisoner in Lewes Hous3 of Come " ' _ ti on, undergoing a sen t ence f ur f e l on y. She had request, d only a short time before that her other two children might be brought to her, but by a fortunate Occurrence they were not is the way at the time. The inquest will be holden on the bediee thin day, CaLTEITY AT SEA.—Captain William Graham, the master of the barque Grange, of Greenock, lying in the West India Dock, appeared' before Mr. Ballantine to answer a charge of committing a series of cruel assaults on William Francis Singleton, the steward, ar.d William Baine, the cook of the same so•sael, on the high seas, on her homeward v o yage f rom the Meuritiva Mr. Pelham appeared for the eh fence. Baine's case was first taken. He stated that on the 10th of April last he was engaged with the rest of the crew in tacking the ship, when the captain, without any prove ! cation, shoved him from one side of the ship to the other, and knocked him down amcng the spars on deck. He got up, and told the captain he did not come on board to be .used in that way. The captain immediately seized him by the throat, kicked him, knocked him down among the spars again, and struck him several times about the head and face, and blackened his eyes. The captain then dragged him forward, and knocked him down in the fore caatle head, and after putting hi , lenees on hie breast, held him by the throat till he was quite black in the face, and could scarcely breathe. He got up, snd on looking round him saw William Minor, a seaman, standing further aft. He appealed to Mutter, who said he saw the whole of the ill-usage. The chief mate then came forward by the cap tain's orders, and held witness by the arms while the captain again seized him by the throat and dragged him aft to the quarter-deek. He laid hold of the niizen rigging, and the captain, after a little struagling, ordered hint clown into the cabin. He refused to go, and requested the captain to make him fast on deck if he wanted to do it. The captain then made fast a rope to his I ge, and, with the assistance of the first and second mates, dragged hint to the companion, where he jumped on him with his feet until he jumped him down the hatchway. He was then put in irons in one of the state rooms, where he was compelled to remain fur two days and three nights, without bed or budding, his only allowance of provisions during that time b -ing two biscuits per day and a little cold water. The ship was then off the Cape of Good Hope. The weather was very cold, and he suffered a good deal. All the clothing he had on was a blue flannel shirt and a pair of canvass trousers while he was in irons. On the second night he asked the captain for some bedclothes, and he refused to give hint any, but sent the steward below to shake his nose, pull his cars, and ascertain if he was tamer. Oa the morning he was released he went to his duty as usual, and continued to work until the 2Gth of May, when the chief mate ordered him to draw rif water from the tank below and fill a cask above. While he was engaged upon this duty the captain, who was sitting on the quarter-deck, amused himself by calling him a brute, a beast, and a d—d brute, every time ho passed him. Ile answered that he was neither Ireute lair beast, which so euragel the captain that he seized him by the threat, end after compressing it in a manner which geve hint much pain, he shook him, and pushed him up against the irizen rig ro t e. After passing the captain with two or three mere buckets of water, lie was again called a beau, and upon making the same reply he had done before the captain pushed him off the quarter-deck on to the main deck. He fell from the violence ' of the shove, and a bucket of water was capsized alongside of him. He got up and was going forward, when the captain 1. flowed him, and overtook him abreast of the longboat, and shoved hint down again. He rose once more, and went right forward close to the windlass, where the captain forced hint upon the chain cable, and then peremptorily ordered him into the forcastle. He was descending the hatchway, when the second !mite called him aft, and he was met by the cap tain, who ordered him to return to his duty. He went down the cabin stairs with a bucket, to fetch more water, and had not got more than half way, when the captain jumped upon him with the whole weight of his body, and severely bruised him about the head and shoulders. He called out " murder," and was ordered upon deck. As he was coming up, the captain repeated his violence. He was sent up and down four thnes, the captain each time jumping upon him as hard as he was able. On reaching the cabin, and calling out " murder," the captain struck him several times on the face with his clenched fists, and then ordered him to return to his duty. He was very weak and disabled from the brutal treatment he received, and said he could not do any moee work. He was again put below, and confined in irons for thirty days, and was not released until the ship came into the dock, and was moored on Friday last. During fourteen days of his last confinement he was only allowed a biscuit and a half per day, and the rest of the time a half pound per day only. The captain, as a further punishment, disfigured him by cutting his hair very short. In cross-examination by Mr. Pelham, the cook said, he never offered to fight the captain ; he never called him names, and lie never gave hint the slightest provocation. He was asked repeatedly to return to his duty during the first eight days of his confinement, and said he could not, on account of the usage he had received. He was brought open deck several times, and the captain said, let the brute beast down to his den again. Mr. BRODERIP said, it was impossible for him to tell what LATEST PRICES OF SHARES LN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COAL' PASTES' STOCK.

MANCHESTER, TUESDAY, JUNE 30 .—Although there was no marked increase in the amount of business .a-.lnsacted to-day,—which, indeed, was scarcely to be expected at this particular period of the year,—the general impression stmongst all parties seemed to be, that prices had reached thiir lowest point, and that an improvement in the demand naight be expected. The downward tendency which manifested itself last week was consequently arrested, and prices wend gene rally firm, but no improvement could be noted.
