Mr. Wylie, ot Glynn, was the first witness called this morning, and was examined by Mr. HOPE—His avocations made him acquainted with the districts through which this line passed. Considerable quantities of agricultural produce from these parts were sent to Liverpool and the manufactur ing districts; 14,000 bol!s of potatoes were shipped annually from this port, a considerable portion of which found their way to Ireland. The vale of Girvan also abounded with coal and other minerals; nine thousand tons were annually con sumed in the town of Girvan, and upwards cf ten thousand tons were shipped during the same period for Ireland. Con siderable quantities of pine-wood were sent to Glasgow and Ayr, all of which would, he believed, be carried by this rail way if constructed. He did not think that the proposed line would injuriously affect the property of Sir C. Fergusson. Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant MURPHY—The proposed line would pass at about the distance of a mile from the re sidence of Sir C.lFergusson. There were no steamers at present plying between Girvan and Belfast. He had known one steamer come up to the port of Girvan; he believed at about two-thirds tide, but did not know the size of it. Mr. J. Elder, Custom-house officer, of Girvan, gave evidence of the favourable position of the port of that place, and its capabilities of being made a very safe and commodious harbour, on account of the head lant's by whi h it was protected. He thought tint they Tight get a depth of ten feet at low water at a very small outlay, and there would be no difficulty in keeping the harbour, when constructed, clear of sand, because the bottom was almost entirely formed of clay. It would, when completed, form one of the best harbours on the coast of Ayr. There were great quantities of fish about Girvan, and he believed this railway would not only afford the means of carrying this fish to Glasgow, but that it would be of great utility to the people of Girvan. Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant MURPHY—The weavers of Girvan were very fond of taking trips by sea, but he could not say whether they were of such a locomotive disposition as to take trips by land upon this railway if it were con structed. No such thing could enter the harbour of Girvan as one of the large steamers plying between Glasgow and Liverpool, or Ireland. Mr. Neilson examined by Mr. HOPE—Was a butcher, and member of the town-council of Glasgow, and stated that great quantities of cattle and sheep were fed and fattened in the neighbourhood of Maypole, which would be carried to Glasgow by this railway, if constructed. Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant MuRPHY—The whole of the cattle consumed in Glasgow came from Forfarahire, the East Lothians, and from Ayrshire. Mr. J. Whitfield, tenant of the Burgenny coal-fields, and farmer of Girvan, gave evidence of the extent of the coal fields in that district ; they were six miles in length, and the present yield was 37,000 tons annually, but they were not worked to anything like their full extent, because at present they had no means of getting a market for their supply. If he had such a market opened up he could increase his supply of coal by 110,000 tons, the greater portion of which would be shipped for Ireland at the port of Girvan. The proposed line, if constructed, would effect a saving to him of 6,0001. a year in the carriage of his coals to Girvan, which was a distance of five miles from the pit's mouth. Cross-examined by Sergeant MURPHY—The vessels which would carry ,the coal to Ireland would bring back meal and other provisions. The meal that was sent from Ireland was of an interior quality to that produced in the neighbourhood of Girvan, which was always sent to Glasgow and other towns in the north. The inferior article would be consumed by the people of Girvan themselves. - Mr. J: Geddes and Mr. Frisbee corroborated the evidence of the last witness with respect to the quantity of coal and other minerals in the district through which the line would pass. Mr. Marshall, traffic-taker, gave general statistical evi dence ot the amount of traffic to be expected upon this line. Mr. Knight corroborated the evidence of the last witness. Mr. Blyth, C.E., the engineer to the line was then called and examined—The total length of the line was 21 miles 5 furlongs. The branch to Maypole was nearly a mile in length. There were no tunnels upon the line, and the works presented no ensineering difficulties. The total estimate for the works was 330,0001. The line would pass at least at the distance of a mile from the house of Sir C. Fergusson, and would not be seen from the house, as it would be completely obscured by the intervening hills. Mr. Miller, C.E., engineer in chief to the line, was exa mined, and corroborated the evidence of Mr. Blyth, the acting engineer. Several witnesses were called, who, as land valuers, gave evidence of the land which would be required for the pur poses of the railway, and the value of the same. This closed the case on behalf of the promoters of the Bill. Mr. Sergeant MURPHY then called the attention of their Lordships to the case of Sir C. Fergusson, and contended that the circumstance of the traffic between Ayr and Girvan, and the district traversed by this railway, were not of such a nature as to warrant the outlay of so large a sum as would be required for this railway in the present depressed state of the money market, neither were they sufficient to justify the unwarrantable invasion of the private property of a person of so great respectability and high character as that of Sir C. Fergusson. The Learned Counsel also commented upon the absence of all evidence on the part of the promoters, with reference to the amount of traffic to be expected from Ireland, communication with which place had been so boastingly put forward by them. The port of Girvan would not afford any facilities for such a traffic even if it were to exist. With respect to the coal which one of the witnesses had stated would be sent to Ireland, the Noble Lord the Chairman of the Committee would bear him out in the assertion that it was not furnace coal, such as was produced in this district, that would be required for consumption in Ireland, but, on the contrary, house coal, which was produced, as stated by.the same witness, from coal-fields to the north of Ayr, conveyance for which was al ready provided by the ports of Ardrossan and other ports on the coast, and which clearly would not be brought down to the inconvenient port of Girvan for shipment to Ireland. Then, with reference to the residential damage, be contended that the sinnosities of the surface of the country would not hide this eye-sore from the honourable proprietor whom he had the honour to represest. The proposed line went for four miles through his property, and there was not the slightest necessity for inflicting this grievous damage upon him, either on the grounds of local or through traffic, or as affording the means of communication with England, the latter of which was amply provided for by Linea already sanctioned. Upon these grounds, therefore, he called upon their Lordships to refuse their sanction to the proposed line. A table of the; assents, dissents, and neuters, was then handed in. No witnesses were called on behalf of Sir C. Fergusson. The room was ordered tube cleared. Upon our admission, The CHAIRMAN stated that the Committee were of opinion that the preamble of the Bill was proved. The Committee had introduced several verbal amendments in the clauses, among which was one limiting term for the construction of the line to five years instead of seven. In consequence of these amendments the Bill will have to be sent back to the House of Commons. NORTH PANY.— KENT (THISRAILWAY COM DAY.) A special general meeting of the shareholders in this un dertaking was held this afternoon, at the London Tavern, Bisi:opsgate-street, for the purpose of receiving a report from the directors preparatory to a dissolution of the Company; Sir Isaac Lionel Goldsmid in the chair. The report presented a detailed history of the North Kent battle in a Committee of the House of Commons, which must be familiar to most readers cf The Sun (a lengthened report of the struggle having during its continuance appeared in The Sun from day to day), and it therefore be coins unnecessary to give a detailed notice of this part of the report. The report then went on to state that the committee, when the South-Eastern Bill, for making the line from Greenwich to Charlton, reached the second reading in the Lords, determined, under the then e xisting circumstances, to abandon their opposition, in con sideration of a sum of money (35,0001.) which the South- Eastern Company agreed to pay them. Of this sum, after deducting the purchase money of some land, included in the agreement, the property of the chairman, there remained a balance of '27,500/. for liquidating the debts and liabilities Of the Company, and, after all claims had been satisfied, the remainder of the the are holders. if there was a olders. A returnnof y, about 30s. per should be di- v ided anion„ sh *bare would ' be made immediately en the receipt of the :volley from the South-Eastern Company. A PROPRIETOR having moved the adoption of the report, The CHAIRMAN stated that 58,300 shares had been issued, every shilling of the deposits on which had all been paid up. —(Hear, bear.) The directors had put the Company to no expense, except for a cup of coffee and a rusk.— (A laugh.) A SHARYHOLDER asked what were the ascertained liabili ties of the Company ? The CHAIRMAN said 75,000/. was demanded of them, but they expected, upon a minute examination, to reduce that amount. A SumusitouyErt—llow much ? The CHAIRMAN said, of course that would be a matter of opinion, but he was then only dealing with facts.—(Hear.) A PROPRIETOR from Dover said the shareholders in his part of the country were averse to giving up the scheme. The majority of the meeting, however, thought there had been a fair stand-up tight between themselves and the F.,outh astern Company, and the directors had under such circum gtances acted perfectly right in abandoning the opposition. The report was unanimously agreed to. In answer to a question, The CHAIRMAN said the 75,0004 included the money al ready paid from the commencement of the Company. Subsequently it was stated that the expenses would not exceed 15s. per share. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman and directors, and the meeting separated. THE GENERAL SHIPOWNERS' SOCIETY.—(THIS DAY.) The annual general meeting of this Society fd took place e a r n to receive the f year, this day at the Hall of Commerce, in o report of the Com mi t tee for th e last the pur pose of eleccing five members to till the vacancies o in the Committee. The chair was taken at one o'clock by George Frederick Young, Esq. The SECRETARY ( Mr. N. Win. Symonds), read the report, from which we extract the following : " Your committee regret that another year has passed without any measure being introduced for the long-expected amendment of the pilotage laws. They have again remon strated with the Government on the delay. and disappointed as they feel that the evils so long complained of; proved, and ado.iited, still remain unredressed, they will not relax their iniOrts to obtain a reine/ y. No step has yet been tatzen on the subject of lighthouses, to e bleb attention was drawn by your collimate, in their last report. The state of public business during the present l'ailicanentary session, may probably account. for the com prehensive report of the Select Committee of the House of -Cenimous thereon, which was presented before the close of :the last session, having hitherto passed unnoticed. "As a member of the great community of the empire, the thep-owner advances no claim to special or peculiar _privi -aegcs: he has nu right to demand, on abstract grounds, ex emplon from any burden to which other interests el a7 sub jected, or any immunity from which they are emu: if 'they be protected, his fright to protection is co-equal excluded with theirs: if they sustain the pressure of foreign competition, lwoe l:e mu 'it make up h i s mi nd to meet it also. All this, i s t ,rtie, only so long as he is permitted freely to ver pur sue like others his own interests in his own way, unfettered by any restrictions from which other interests are esti:qt. But if for objects of supposed national benefit, conferring on him no separate or special advantage, the State imposes on him burdens and restrictions of a heavily disqua lif y i n g nature, common justice prescribe that up to tke wint to which the proved disqualification extends, he should be protected from the competition of those who are free from his burdens ; and common sense will determine that unless so protected, he must sink in the struggle of such competition. Now this -exactly is the case of the British shipowner. By the registry laws he is restricted to the use of ships probably the most costly in the world. By the navigation laws he is compelled to employ ex clusively the highest paid and most expensively fed seamen—those of native birth. By a variety of laws and regulations deemed by the Legislature essential to some common interest, or some general duty, be is impeded, taxed, and prevented from conducting his pursuits in the manner most conducive to his own interests. The effect of all this on his penses must be self-evident. It has been estab lisheArrgumentatively—statistically—before Cemmittees of Inquiry—by Parliamentary returns—by proof upon proof, de fying refutation. It has been demonstrated by the most con clusive of all evidence, that of experience. Your committee have no desire to revive bygone controversies, but the annual records of their proceedings bear continual testimony to the practical effects that have followed in every instance, in which the experiment has been tried of placing British shipping in a position of unprotected competition with the ships of foreign nations. It is consolatory to have observed that in reply to a cpestion from the late Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lord John Russell, in a recent discussion on the sugar duties, declared that 'he did not propose in any respect to alter the existing navigation laws.' Still, in the signs of the times. your committee per ceive abundant reason for shipowners being prepared. It would be unworthy of your committee to affect to con ceal that which their successive records abundantly testify, that their own opinions have always been favourable to mo • derate and just protection to all interests. In the support of this principle they have been actuated by no selfish desire to promote class interests at the expense of those of the com munity at large, but have been prompted solely by the conviction, that in its maintenance the interests of all would be most effectually advanced. If the general policy of the country is to be changed, they ask not now that for their own sakes they shall constitute au exception. • But what they demand, is, even-banded justice. That justice which by Sir Robert Peel was promised to the agriculturists on the repeal of the corn-laws, and by Lord John Russell to the colonists on the alteration of the sugar duties; — namely, that freedom of production shall at least go hand in hand with freedom of competition." Mr. CHAPMAN, M.P., moved the adoption of the report, and expressed his opinion in favour of protection, and his gratitude that the Noble Lord (Lord G. Bentinck) had taken up the question in such a statesmanlike manner in the House of Commons. He did net believe that the day was distant when those principles would prevail if they would rally round each other. Lord GEORGE BENTINCK said that he came there as the representative of King's Lynn, a great com mercial district, and not with the intention of taking an active part in the proceedings of the day. He had always believed that the shipping interest of England was of the greatest moment to the country. He did not wish to enter into any debateable questions, but he felt that it was hard to speak of British shipping and not speak of free trade—(Hear, hear)—which, wherever it hail been tried, had never failed to injure that interest; and he could tell them that unless the day arrived (which God forbid that he should live to see) when they could make the British sailor live as cheaply as the Norwegians and Danes, they never could contend on equal terms with the shipowners of other countries and of that country. They were told that they ought to be quite satisfied with the progress that they had made, but what signified that progress if others exceeded that progress, what signified it if they run a race if others run faster ?—( Hear, hear.) And he considered that the navigation laws should be maintained in their entirety, and they should avow free trade with those countries that had a competing maritime force. Where was their strength? was it not in those colo nial possessions where they had a monopoly ? In China, where there was no naval force but their own in India, where such was also the case? They ought to have different commercial treaties with different countries—a particular treaty with China; another with Norway • an other with Russia, Prussia , and Sweden. That was the Norway; which he maintained. The course of the shipowners was again to unite—in union was their sole strength. It was said that Parliament had decided the question of free trade, but he did not know that the country had done so, and he, for one, would not give up the question as lost.—( Hear, hear.) As long as he was in Parliament he would fight the battle of protection.—(Hear.) He would conclude by seconding the adoption of the report, which was carried unanimously. Lord G. BENTINCK then moved a vote of thanks to the Chairman. It was only in his absence frem the House of Commons that he (Lord George Bentinck) advocated so zealously their interests, for if Mr. Young had been there it would not have been necessary for him to have said one word. The resolution having been seconded, was passed unani mously. The Chairman briefly thanked the meeting. THE SUN,_LOND'ON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUS7 12, 1846. PRIVY COUNCIL.-(THIS DAY.) The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council sat to-day in the Council Chamber, Whitehall. The Lords present were the Lord President, the Lord Privy Seal, the Lord Chief Justice of England, the Chancellor of the Duchfof Lancas ter, the Vice-Chancellor of England, and the Judge of the Admiralty Court. The Attorney and Solicitor-General also sat with their Lordships as assessors. IN THE MATTER OF THE PETITION OF THE PROVOST OF ETON COLLEGE. The arguments in this part-heard case were resumed this morning. The case came before their Lordships upon a pe tition presented to her Majesty, by the Provost and Fellows of the College Royal of Eton, against a scheme proposed to her Majesty with respect to the C 'liege by the Ecclesiastical Commissioners of England. The following are the more im portant facts of the case : " The College Royal of the Blessed Mary of Eten, otherwise called 'The Kyng's College cf our Ladye of Eton besyde Wyndsore,' was founded by Henry VI., in 1440, and by him incorporated and endowed, and invested with many privileges, by letters patent and charter incorporated into and confirmed by Act of Parliament, the 20th of Henry VI. The perpetual advowson of the parish church of Eton was purchased by the King, and granted to the college in frankalmoin, and the church was changed into a collegiate church, and appropriated, united, and annexed to and in corporated with the college, with the consent of the then Bishop of the diocese (Lincoln), in 1443. At the request of the King, the college was expressly exempted from the jurisdiction of the archdeaconry of Bucks, and the archi diaconal jurisdiction within the parish and colle&iate church of Eton was conferred upon the provost and his successors by the Bishop of Lincoln, with the consent of the Arch deacon, to whom an indemnity was assigned of 22ss6d. per annum, charged upon an estate belogging to the college, which has ever since been regularly paid. In 1445 or 1446 a body of statutes was granted by the King to the college, and all collegiate persons are sworn to obey these statutes. One of these statutes (49th), "Of the Metropolitan Visita tion of the Archbishop of Canterbury, and the ordinary Visi tation of the .Bishop of Lincoln," contains the following passage :—" Also, we have it much at heart that all and sin gular the ordinances and statutes of our said Royal College by us made and to be made may for ever be fully and efficfently observed, and all the property of the same faith fully preserved and discreetly controlled, and we firmly hope that the most Reverend Father in Christ the Arch bishop of Canterbury, the Metropolitan of the said college, the Rev. Father in Christ the Bishop of Lincoln, the Diocesan of the same, who, for the time being, as they ' ought to be the visitors and ordinaries of our said college ( sicut dicti nostri Colleyii Visateres et Ordinarii esse debebutd) so they will be favourable conservators and chief protectors of the same college, and of all and singular persons and possessions spiritual and temporal, and of the rights, liberties, and privileges of the same, and especially of our statutes and ordinances aforesaid; on account of which our singular confidence in them, we have not cared to make oar said college exempt from the same (non curavimus exemp tunz facere ab eisdem) by the authority of the Apostolic See ; ' and it wills that the Archbishop, as often as he shall visit _ . the diocese of Lincoln as metropolitical, by himself, or his (suos), and the Bishop of Lincoln, when they shall have been required by the Provost, Vice. Provost, Bursars, or Fellows, also without requisition, every three years, when he should ordinarily visit his cathedral church and diocese, shall once freely come to the college by themselves or their commissaries (except the Provost of Eaton), and others named in the statute, and shall call together the Fellows and other persons of the college ; " which same most reve rend and reverend fathers and such theiecommizearies afore said, by force of this, our present ordinance and statute, we will more fully to have power of inquiry most rigidly concern ing all and singular the articles contained in our ordinances and statutes by the Provost, &c.; also, if it befit under the oath of the same to be administered to them to speak the full and ;simple truth (to wit), if our ordinances and statutes aforesaid had been duly executed and also observed by a ll o f them," &c. ; " and concerning any excess?s, negligences, crimes, and faults whatsoever of our said royal college, ac cording to the full force, form and effect of the ordinances and statutes fur the correction and punishment thereof," &c. In short, this statute confers the most ample visitatorial powers upon the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of Lincoln, extending to deprivation ; but expressly takes away from them, " any other power in our said college, as over the persons of the same, or to other matters than those contained in our present statute, and our other statutes and ordinances,;or that they may be able, or that any of them can, by reason of the jurisdiction which he or they have in the same, or over any of the persons thereof, cite, or Cause to be cited, summon, or cause to be summoned, out of the said college, the Provost, or any fellow, or any other collegiate person, whatsoever in the same; but we, as much as is in us, entirely deprive them, and each of them, of such power by force of this our present statute ( sed potestatem hujusmodi eis et wrung cultibet prcesentis stututi nosti i vigore in quantum in nobis est adimimus amni motto). The Archbishop of Canterbury, in 1446, by deed under seal, accepted, ratified, and approved all these statutes, especially the 49th, as did also the Bishop of Lincoln By virtue of the premises, the Provost and college had claimed and exercised exclusive and peculiar ecclesiastical jurisdiction within the parish of Eton. The Bishop of Lin coln (within which diocese Eton was localy situate) never exercised, or attempted to exercise, any diocesan jurisdic tion in the parish or collegiate church of' Eton. Marriage licenses are granted by the Provost, and no churchwardens have ever been elected or appointed by the parish, which has been wholly exempted from church-rates, repairs and o ther expenses, ordinarily the subject of a ch urc h- ra t e , Having been defrayed b y the college. The vi s it a t or i a l power has b ee n constantly exercised by the Bishops of Lin coln, and occasionally by the Archbishops of Canterbury. which created the body p T o h l i A c ct an 6 d an co d " c :th 7 e 7, Ecclesiastical Commis r7poWraitleli,amcaliVed., sioners for England," enacted (sec. 10) that the Commis sioners shall from time to time prepare and lay before his Majesty in Council such schemes as shall appear to them best adapted to carry into effect the recommendations therein mentioned, and shall prepare such measures as may appear necessary for that purpose, and they are empowered ' to propose in any such scheme, " that all parishes, churches, or chapelries, which are locally situate in any diocese, but subject to any peculiar jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction of the bishop of the diocese in which the same are locally situate, shall be only subject to the .jurisdic tion of the bishop of the diocese within which such churches, or chapelries are locally situated." juiparishes, the Commissioners proposed to her Majesty, with t 3 :11e 1837, con sent of the Bishop of Lincoln , that upon the first avoidance of the see of Oxford , the county of Bucks (forming the arch deaconry of Fucks), then part of the dioeese of Lincoln, should be detached therefroll, and annexed to the see of Oxford. 'his scheme teas ratified by her Majesty, and in November, 1845, the see of Oxford becoming void by the translation of the then Bishop of Bath and Wells, the county of Bucks became parcel of the see of Oxford. Meanwhile the Ecclesiaticat Commissioners, in August, 1845, h Ist of pro posed to her Majesty, inter alia, that aces locall y situate January, 1846, all parishes and pl after ye within the diocese of Lincoln, and all churches and chapels, and the whole clergy and others of her Majesty's subjects locally situate within the limits of such parishes and places, should, notwithstanding ary peculiar jurisdiction or exemp tion from jurisdiction they might claim, be subject to the jurisdiction of the bishop of the diocese within which they I were locally situate, and to no other eclesiastical jurisdiction whatever. This scheme was likewise ratified by her Majesty. The county of Bucks having, by . its transfer to the seo of Oxford, in November, 1845, ceased to form part of the diocese of Lincoln, when_ he aforegolno scheme took effect (Ist of January, 1846), it had no operation upon the ' peculiar or exempt jurisdictions in that county. On the 29th of April last the Commissioners laid before her Ma jesty another scheme, proposing that all parishes and places locally situate within the diocese of Oxford, and all churches and chapels and the whole clergy and others, ber Majesty's subjects, locally situate within such parishes and places shall, notwithstanding any peculiar or other ecclesiastical jurisdic tion or exemption claimed by them, be subject only to the jurisdiction and authority of the Bishop of Oxford; " pro vided that nothing herein contained shall deprive the colle giate church and parish of Eton of their present exemption, if any, from the jurisdiction of the Archdeacon of Bucking ham." The Provost and fellows of Etbn objected to this scheme on several grounds Because, Eton being a royal foun dation, and having hitherto enjoyed an exemption from ecclesiastical jurisdiction, no evil consequences have arisen 'therefrom ; on the contrary, the ecclesiastical state of the parish and college is in all respects satisfactory. 2. Because no particular or peculiar benefit or advantage has been sug gested as likely to accrue to the college, parish, or diocese, fi onvthe abolition of this peculiar jurisdiction. 3. Because the immediate and necessary consequence would be to plane the Bishop of Lii:co!n, as visitor, the I'rovcst, fellows, and collegiate clerks, and the Bishop of Oxford, as ordinary, in collision ; and to render the Provost, fellows, and all collegiate persons amenable in the same capacity, to two different and possibly conflicting tribunals. 4. Because the charter, privileges, and statutes of the college having been lawfully granted, confirmed and recognised, and found highly beneficial, it is unjust in principle, and impolitic in practice, to interfere in the manner proposed without urgent cause, or proposed advantage, or charge made against the college. The Commissioners, cn the other hand, say that the exemption from episcopal jurisdiction, claimed by the college, does not appear to them to have at any time in fact ex isted ; that the parish of Eton, and the site of the Royal College, were, at the date of the foundation of the college, and continued to be till November last, within the diocese of Lincoln, the Bishops of which see having been, under the statutes of the college, ordinary visitors, filled the twofold character of diocesan and visitor, which had given rise to the supposition of an exemption from episcopal jurisdiction ; whereas the episcopal authority could not merge in the visitatorial authority ; and there is no evidence of any act of a Bishop of Lincoln, by which the collegiate church of Eton was exempted from the diocesan authority, whilst confirma tion and other rites performed there by Bishops of Lincoln could only have been performed by them as ordinaries of the diocese. But should the petitioners be able to establish the exemption they claimed, then the Commissioners submit that that exemption ought not to be continued. one of the objects of the Act of Gth and 7th William IV., c. 77, being to put an end to such anomalies. If, therefore, the collegiate church and parish of Eton are not exempt from episcopal jurisdic tion, they are not affected by the scheme; and if they are exempt, that church and parish will under the proposed scheme be placed under the episcopal jurisdiction of the bishop in whose diocese they are locally situate, according to the spirit and intent of the Act. Mr. BETIIELL resumed his arguments to day in behalf of the petitioners, and the case appears likely to occupy several days. SECONDARIES'.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.) ASSA U LT. NEYLAND V. PEARSON. This was an action to recover damages for an assault. Mr. Ry land appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Jones for the defendant, who suffered judgment to go by default. The facts of the case, as elicited from the plaintiff's wit nesses, were these : —The plaintiff is a dealer in Bass's Indian ales, and the defendant a licensed victualler, keeping the Mitre, in Chancery-lane. On the 6th of July last the plaintiff took six dozen of ale, and charged it at six shillings a dozen, which the defendant objected to, and said that it was agreed when the dozen was sent as a sample that it should be only ss. 6d. per dozen, and he would not pay any more, and plaintiff might take it away again, on which plaintiff called him a d—d humbug, &c., &c., and said he would not do so. Defendant told him not to repeat the offensive words, which, however, he did, and defendant then went round the corner and struck him in the face. It was net pretended that the injury was severe, but plaintiff went to an attorney a short distance away, who immediately sent a letter requiring com pensation for the injury and an apology, also payment for the beer, and the next day writs were issued. Defendant paid for the beer, but determined to take the opinion of the jury as to the assault.. Mr. Sergeant - JONES contended, that although the de fendant could not justify the assault, yet that, if the jury sanctioned such conduct by their verdict, they would be encouraging actions of this kind, and no tradesman would be safe from insults and imposition. The jury retired for two hours, and at three o'clock gave 51. damages. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, TUESDAY, AUG. 11.—There is no change in the market to-day. Good printing cloths continue in fair demand ; but other descriptions of cloth, and most kinds of yarn, are in limited request—•in some cases at rather lower rates. ROCHDALE, MONDAY, AUGUST 10.—The flannel market still continues inactive, and demand limited. Wool has un dergone little variation, either in price or quantity sold. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY, AUGUST 11.—There have been a good many buyers in the market, and a fair business doing, although perhaps not quite so much as during the two last weeks. Wools are steady in price, and the demand for woollen yarn is very brisk. LEEDS, TUESDAY, AUGUST 11.—The improved state of our Market continues, and almost all descriptions of woollens are in very fair demand.—Manchester Guardian. MPERIAL PARLIAMENT (THIS DAY.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. GAUGE OF RAILWAYS BILL. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition.) Mr. HAY TER said the Right Hun. Gentleman the Vice- President of the Board of Trade laboured under a mistake when he said, in opposition to this clause, first, that it would sanction a complete violation of the principles by which the Commissioners came to their resolution ; and, secondly, that, in point of form, this resolution ought to have been pro posed when they were in Committee on the Bill ?—( Hear, hear.) The resolutions of the House did not militate against the clause proposed--in fact, they made an exception with respect to that part of the country to which the resolution of the Hon. Member for Birmingham referred.—(Hear, hear.) The Bill proposed to interfere with two parts of the kingdom— the Birmingham district and a Welsh county—on which the Gauge Commissioners had not reported. The clause now pro posed was only similar to that which was inserted in the Ox ford and Birmingham Railway Bill, and he thought that the House ought to allow it to be inserted in this Bill.—(Hear.) Mr. WILLIAMS supported the clause. The advantages to the public of having a continuity of gauge from Birmingham to Rugby were incalculable, and those advantages would be obtained by the insertion of the proposed clause in the Bill. The public would save an immense amount of money by the proposed continuity of gauge• and he thought that the Right Honourable Gentleman the Vice- President of the Board of Trade, had utterly failed in showing that the clause ought not to be agreed to. The public were fairly entitled to the clause, which would tend in a great measure to put an end to the monopoly which at pre sent existed on the railways in the district in question.— ( Hear, bear.) The man u f ac t urers o f t h e nort h ern d istr i cts suffered much from the inability of those railways to accom modate them in the carrying of their merchandise. Mr. MARK PHILLIPS briefly opposed the clause. He thought that this proposition had come upon the House by surprise. At so late a period of the sesuion, it had been supposed that the Bill would not have been at tempted to be altered. He certainly could not agree to the introduction of the clause, which would not, in his opinion, confer the advantages anticipated by Hon. Members. Mr. BERNAL thought that the public were entitled to the insertion of this clause. Sir GEORGE GREY said that the question was fully discussed when tha resolutions were before the House, and the President of the Board of Trade of the late Government brought in a Bill founded on these resolutions, which Bill was the one now under discussion. During the debate on these resolutions no mention was made of the present pro posal ; and he thought it extremely inconvenient to re-open the question now de wino. Without entering into the merits of the question, be thought that the safe course vrould be to adhere to the Bill, and to remit the clause as being contrary to precedent and the ordinary usages of the House with regard to Bills at that stage. Mr. HENLEY supported the clause, inasmuch as it was within the spirit of the exceptions allowed by the resolutions. Captain MANGLES opposed the clause. The merits of the question had been, already fully discussed, and the pro moters of the broad gauge had the sole opportunity of being heard before the Board of Trade, without making the present proposal. Under these circumstances, he did not think the House of Commons was a fit tribunal to reverse the decision of the authorities, who supported the course determined upon by the Board of Trade and sanctioned by themselves, in passing the resolutions on which the present Bill was founded. Mr. lIIUNTZ replied, and said it would be a great injustice if they rejected the clause on the technical ground of its not being printed. The House then divided, when the numbers were— For the clause Against it Illajority against the clause 3l The Bill was then read a third time and pared. EJECTMENTS (IRELAND) BILL. The House went into Committee on this Bill, and the se veral clauses were read and agreed to. The House resumed, and the report was ordered to be brought up to-mori•ow. RATEABLE PROPERTY (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion for going intr. Committee on this Bill, Mr. SHARMAN CRAWFORD moved, " That it is the opinion of this House, that any new law for the valuation of rateable property in Ireland, should be made in conformity with the recommendations contained in the report of the Select Committee on the Townland Val int. ion of Ireland ( July 18,1844), viz., that there ought to be only one valuation for all purposes of local taxation, framed on the net annual value to let, determined on the principles laid down in the Poor Relief Act." He said that it was now req u i re d to put taxat i on on real value, and not proportionate value ; and if they a d op t e d t h at course they would have no necessity to resort to this cumbrous ma chinery. Was it not preposterous that after the real value had been decided by the assistant, the petitioner might find bis property by some plan or other cause taxed according to the proportionate value? He thought the valuation for poor rate should be made at the expense of the public.- An endless number of valuations would result without any benefit, but, on the contrary, causing a greater confusion in what was already too confused. He thought it was unreasonable, when so many of the Irish Members were absent, to pass a measure of such importance as the present. He admitted that the rating of property in Ireland was most important, and he trusted that it would form one of the beneficial measures it was proposed to introduce ; but he thought, from the considerations he had stated, it would be better to postpone it for the present. Mr. LABOUCHL RE said he could assure the Hon. Gen tleman who had just sat down that there was no individual to whose suggestions on the social condition of Ireland he would be more ready to attend. but in the present case he could net advise the Government to postpone ~this measure. He agreed , with the Ron. Gentleman as to the importance of this measure; but its postponement would lead to the postponement of other desirable measures for Ireland. At the same time, concur ; rently with this measure, there would be a valuation on the . principle suggested by the Hon. Gentleman. f The motion was then withdrawn, and the House went into s Committee on the Bill. , The House immediately afterwards resumed. 5 MESSAGE FROM THE LORDS. , Messengers from the House of Lords brought up several . Bills and reports. The House again resolved itself into Committee on the Rateable Property (Ireland) Bill. Having disposed of forty clauses (there being eighty-seven in the Bill), the House resumed, the Chairman reported pro gress, and obtained leave to sit again on Friday. MARRIAGES (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion of Mr. PIGoTT (who stated th4t he would propose some amendments in Committee), this Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Friday. HOUSE OF COMMONS OFFICES BILL. This Bill was reported, and ordered to be recommitted to morrow. NAVAL AND MILITARY DEPARTMENTS BILL. This Bill was postponed till to-morrow. PUBLIC WORKS AND FISHERIES. This 13111 then went through Committee, and the report was ordered to be brought up to-morrow. COMMONS INCLOSURE (No. 3) BILL. The Bill was then read a third •ime and passed. WIIECK AND SALVAGE BILL. Mr. MILNER GIBSON having moved the third reading of this B 11, Captain PECHELL hoped that it would not be allowed to pass. If it passed, the Admiralty Court, in which there was an amount of robbery yearly committed, which it was not convenient at this period of the session to detail, would be still further enriched by the spoils which this Bill would produce for those who practised in that Court. He knew of a case, lately decided in the Admiraby Court, in which the amount awarded was but 50!., and the law expenses 3301. It would be ruinous to the shipowners of this country. The law of wreck and salvage certcinly did require the most extensive improvement, but he did not expect that such a monstrous remedy as this Bill would have been proposed. He hoped that his Right lion. Friend, the President of the Board of Trade, would relinquish this measure of the defunct Ministry. He (Captain Pechell) had, for the last ten years, done his utmost endeavours to purify the Admi ralty Court; and if this Bill were passed, he should never rest satisfied until it was repealed. Mr. GEORGE PALMER also opposed the Bill, which, in his opinion. involved the greatest difficulties, Mr. MILNER GIBSON hoped the Hop. Member would allow the Bill to be read a third time, and the amendments might be considered on a future occasion. The Bill was then read a third lime, and further proceedings ou the Bill were postponed till to-morrow. BRITISH POSSESSIONS BILL. This Bill was read a second time. Captain PECHELL moved for copies of all the correspon dence which has taken place between the Committee of Council of Education and the York and Ripon Central Diocesan So ciety for the Education of the Poor. Agreed to. Captain PECHELL moved for a return from the several Vice-Admiralty Courts (according to the schedule annexed to the Act 5 and 6 Vic. c. 91) of all cases which had been ad judged in the said Courts respectively from the 10th August, 1842, to the latest wriod at which the same can be made. — Agreed to. CORPORAL PUNISHMENT. Mr. HUME moved for certain orders respecting the cor poral punishment of Europeans and natives in British India, and also a return of the number of prisoners who suffered corporal punishment in the different military prisons in England, Ireland, and Scotland.—Agreed to. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at six o'clock. COMMISSION OF ESCHEAT, LONDON.—SEIZURE OF THE ESTATE or AN ALIEN. —This afternoon a Commission of Essheat was opened by Messrs. Waddington, Pollock, and Manic., at the Secondaries' Office, Basinghall-street, to ascer tain' whether Mrs. Amelia Susan Maria Mayes was or was not an alien, and if she was, of what property she was pos sessed in the City of London. The facts were these :—Thelady is the natural daughter of Mr. Jens Wolff, who was formerly the Danish Consul in London, and was born at Paris of a Mrs. Tovey, whom Mr. Wolff afterwards married. Mr. Wolff made a will, bequeathing property in London, Midllesex, and Surrey, to his son, and after his death tl his daughter, Mrs. Mayes, who resided abroad, and was married to an officer in the Belgian army. The property having fallen to her for her life, the Learned Commissioner said it became escheated to the Crown, as Mrs. Mayes being illegitimate and born abroad was not a British subject. The Crown, therefore, had a right to take to it; and would no doubt, as it always did, act with liberality and justice to the parties interested, these proceedings being chiefly for the protection of the pro perty. The jury found that the property was of the value of 401. per annum, within the jurisdiction of the Sheriffs of London. _ _ _ _ ------- DISCOVERY OF A NEW SEAM OF COAL.—On Monday last, rejoicings on an extensive scale took place at Talk-o'- th'-Hill, to celebrate the discovery of a new and valuable seam of coal upon the es'ate of R. E. Heathcote, Esq., situate in that parish. The coal is called the Bamford coal, and workmen had been employed in search of the vein for the last two years and a-half: It was finally discovered about 300 yards from the surface, underneath a bed of stone, about 25 feet in thickness. This source of additional wealth to the proprietor, and additional employment for the working classes, is a matter of sincere congratulation ; and the " find" was accordingly publicly notified by the roasting of a whole sheep, and the hind quarter of a fine ox ; these substantials, with a barrel of " October," were distributed to the workmen and the tenantry ; feux de joie were discharged, and the greatest enthusiasm and goodwill prevailed through out the day.—Staffordshire Mercury POOR REMOVAL.

The Bishop of OXFORD was desirous to draw the attention of their Lordships to a matter personal to himself, though it was not wholly personal to himself. He alluded to the unusual course adopted last night with respect to the sugar duties in taking the debate on the first, instead of the second reading of that measure. He was entirely i g norant o f that arrange ment, and the consequence was that the debate went forth to the public without his having taken any part in it, although it was his determination to have done so. As far as their Lord ships were concerned, his absence might not be of much con . sequence, but he considered that such a departure trout, the ordinary course was a personal injustice to himself, as he was most desirous to have had an opportunity of entering his protest against the measure. He said he was anxious to take that opportunity y of sain tht somethin like an understand ing having been come to, that t here wculd g be no further debate on the second reading, he, being n o p art y to that a g reement, could not be b oun d by any such agreement. He said he did not stand alone • he had been requested to mention this on behalf of the Right Rev. Prelate the Bishop of London, who was equally ignorant of any arrangement, though he was resent at an early part of the e vening last night. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said no.hing could be further from the intentions of Noble Lords en that side the House than to take any course which would exclude any Noble Lord from taking part in the debates. er standin Lord BROUGHAM—There wa s no und g. The Marquis of L A N SD() WNE said there was a common consent that the whole business on the Bill should be opened on th e first readin , r; but it was not intended thereby to ex clude any party who thought proper to re-open the debate on the second reading. The Bishop of OXFORD said he did not mean that he supposed it had been the intention of Noble Lords to exclude any, but he lamented that he, and others with him, not being privy to that arrangement, had been excluded from taking part in the discussion. Lord BROUGHAM said that no one suffered more than he did, having come 300 miles to attend the House a week earlier than he intended; but at the same time he felt the arrange.. meta to be a great convenience at that time of the session, when many of their Lordships were leaving for the country, but he felt nothing more than the absence of the Right Ilan, i Prelate from the debate._.That the name of Wilberforce should be left out in a debate on slavery and the slave trade was unusual, and anything but agreeable to them. The Marquis of L ANSDOWNE 'ail upon their Lordships' table the minutes of the Committee of the Privy Council on Education, also the sixth report of the Commission on the Fine Arts. TREATY OF VIENNA. Lord BEAUMONT rose to call the attention of their Lord ships to the subject of which he had given notice, with reference to events which had taken place in Cracow and its neighbour , . hood, and the violation of the treaty of Vienna. lie founded his claim to the attention of their Lordships en three grounds— first, upon the ground of necessity to enforce those treaties to which this was a party; secondly, upon the great question of political interest and the great European question of the ba lance of power with which it was involved; and, thirdly, upon the broad ground of humanity, because the events to which he referred had taken place in flagrant violation of common law, and the rights of humanity, and of civilisation, such as he trusted would never be again repeated, and which, he believed, if their Lordships took np the question, as they were bound to do, never would occur again. Their Lordships were aware that a special treaty had been entered into with Vienna by Russia arid Austria, and he main tained that the treaty had been violated in its letter and its spirit. lie referred to events which occurred so early as the month of January, when reports were circulated of an out break being apprehended in Vienna. When there was an ap prehension of an outbreak, the conduct of Austria differed ma terially from that of Prussia. Prussia, when made aware of the circumstances, took steps to arrest and prevent the antici pated outbreak, anal those who were likely to take part in it were arrested. In Austria no such precautions were taken to arrest suspected persons, or put a cheek to the outbreak by placing troops in a position to crush it at the moment of its rising. Towards the 17th of February the murmurs of an outbreak increased. Cracow, it should be recolletecd, was a per fectly independent power—as independent as France or any other country. The Government might have been alarmed, and expressed that alarm to Austria, but at this time no dangerous proceedings took place ; but on the 18th, to the astonishment of every person in Cracow, an Austrian army, under the command of General Collin, marched into the town. A sudden pause was thus put to trade, commerce, and amusements, and the people stood aghast with astonish ment. On the 19th no extraordinary event took place fur ther, but the general consternation of the inhabitants. Severe orders were no doubt issued by the authorities, preventing the people from being out of their houses aft ±r certain hours. On the 20th, for the first time, something like a disturbance took place on the people returning from the theatre, and persons in different parts of the town were arrested. On the 21st some thing more serious took place. A restaurant, headed by seve ral persons, barricaded his doors, and fired from the windows on the troops, who were immediately assembled. One or two persons were found with arms in their hands, and were taken in arrest. All of these distarbances, trifling as they were, being concocted by same twenty or thirty persons, were thus entirely suppressed and put down, and that with the greatest facility. On the 22d, which was Sunday, the churches were ordered to be closed, and no service was allowed, and the shops were all closed. The troops were marchrd through the town at different periods of the day, and one or two accidents took place. An unfortunate man, who was cleaning a lamp, was shot for beir g out against orders. With the exception of that trifling circumstance, nothing worthy of remark took place. The people were perfectly quiet, and the greatest astonishment and alarm prevailed over all Cracow. Shortly afterwards General Collin evacuated Cracow with the whole of his force, with all the police, the three residents, the whole of the Goverr ment, the bishops, and every single employe in the pace; down to the lowest faquires that swept the public offices. Cracow was then left without a single authority of any kind ; without any force to protect it ; not even a sentinel at the prisons; without a single person responsible, in a terri tory containing a population of 130,000. For some hours it remained so, when one or two of the most respectable persons attempted to form a sort of provisional Government, which took means to keep things in a state of calm and quiet, until they perceived what had taken place on the exterior of Cracow. This was on the 22d, and on the 23d, the short lived provi sional Government was put down. A new system was then put up by five or six individuals, who were the suspected persons, and who had been allowed to enter from Gelicie, and had passed the General on the way. They formed a revo lutionary Government, they issued all sorts of proclamations of equality and the division of land, and excited the lower classes of people to rise against their masters. In the territory of Cra cow no persons rose against their masters, and not a single attack was made, netwithstandinglthe misconduct of the Government. All the people behaved perfectly well, and though many left their doors open, not a single robbery took place. The Noble Lord then proceeded to relate the recent outbreak which occurred at Cracow, and which has already appeared in Tire Sun at length. On the second of the month, a Circassian regiment of the Russian army entered the city, and were re ceived with open arms by the citizens, who considered that they were a safety guard from the power of the Austrian Government. But after a short time the Russians and the Prussians withdrew, the arms of the residents were taken down, and Cracow has ever since remained garrisoned )y the Austrians, and held by that power as an Austrian town. Now, that was what he termed a violation of the treaty of Vienna. The Noble Lord then read several translations from Polish documents encouraging the peasantry to rise in arms. The consequence of these placards was, that the peasantry did arise, and marauders ravaged the country ; and a person . of the name of Silas, with a band of about 100 men, murdered hundreds after hundreds, took castle after castle, and pillaged them. Amongst the slaughtered were the names of the highest fami lies, against whom not even a suspicion of guilt had been at tached. He acquitted the Austrian Government of any know ledge of these circumstances, but he did contrast their conduct with that of Prussia, where an outbreak was expected, yet where, in consequence of the good measures which had been taken, no bloodshed occurred. He had seen letters from the survivors of these massacres ; he had seen a letter from the daughter of one of these noble families, who was the sole relict of her murdered family. He had seen, also, a letter from others, who were also survivors, which would harrow up the feelings of their Lordships. Hatred was fomented between the peasantry and the nobles, and thus it was that the appeal to the peasantry was so fully answered. The nobles were compelled to carry into effect the most ungracious laws, and he made that a charge against the Austrian Government. With regard to the Poles, who were called the Emigration, he believed that they were nearly all totally ignorant of these transactions, although there miyht be some of them who were cognisant of them. He was of opinion, however, that there ought to be a distinction made between them. He would not trouble their Lordships any fur. ther, but would conclude by asking for the production of any correspondence between her Majesty's Government and the other three Governments with respect to the circumstances to which he had referred ; and ho trusted that the Noble Vis count now at the head of foreign affairs would exert himself to the utmost to prevent a recurrence of these shocking trans act ions. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE complimented the Noble Lord for the manner in which he referred to the circumstances which had taken place in Dalmatia and Cracow, and he con curred with him that a right, and more than aright—a duty— devolved upon the Government, who were parties to the inde pendent existence of Cracow, to see that its independence should, under all circumstances, be preserved. No person could lament more deeply than he did that anything should have occurred to afford a justification for the imputation of in terference with that independence. He was bound to say that all these calamities had their origin with a number of refugees who had taken up their residence in Cracow, and who, in the con spiracy in which they were engaged, had more exten sive objects in view than the affairs of Cracow. In fact, the conspiracy was such as to cause the greatest alarm in the neighbouring states. These states, finding that overtures were made to extend the conspiracy all over the country, and as the authorities of Cracow had made application to them, interfered and occupied Cracow. As to the retirement of the Austrian soldiers from Cracow, he could not offer any explanation. The three powers had, however, in March last, occupied Cracow, and continued in possession of it ever since. It did not matter, in his opinion, which of the three powers occupied Cracow, provided it was done by their joint consent.—("Hear, hear," from the Duke of Wellington. ) Conferences had taken place between the three powers, and he trusted the period would soon arrive when Cracow would be restored to that independence which she was entitled to enjoy under the treaty of Vienna. There could be no objection to give the Noble Lord the correspondence which he wished. He would have stopped there, had not the Noble Lord referred to what had taken place in Galicia. He had to say, in reference to that country, that whatever might be his opinion of the scenes enacted there, they were not such as to justify any inter ference on the part of this Government with the Government which ruled that province. He was bound to say that the transaction which took place. there arose from the mismanage ment of the local authorities, and were not entirely chargeable to the Government of Vienna. He therefore trusted that the Government Of Austria would take such steps as would prevent the recurrence of these horrid transactions. He had no reason to complain of the terms in which the Noble Lord treated the subject ; and he had no objection to comply with his motion for the production of the correspondence between her Majesty's Government and the three courts of Vienna, Petersburgh, and Berlin. The Duke of WELLINGTON, being a Member of her Majesty's Goverment when these occurrences took place, was hound to say that there was a violation of the treaty, which must be explained by these powers. With respect to the re public of Cracow, the treaty of Vienna was very peremptory— that that city shonld not be occupied with the troops of any of the three powers. When that treaty, however, was drawn up, the existing state of things was never contemplated; that there should be committees sitting in the principal cities of Europe, plotting an insurrection against the actual existing Government, even in the very city of Cracow. The authorities of Cracow, and the agents of the three protecting powers, acquired information that a conspiracy existed, not only in the republic of Cracow, but in the neighbouring countries of Posen, and Galicia, and even in the Duchy of Warsaw. He did not attempt to say, or know, what measures of precaution the Government did take, and he was sure that very few in the country could judge what measures it was in their power to take, or what measures they ought to have taken. But this he did say, that the measure adopted, was one which was contrary to the treaty, and could only be justified by the exigencies of the time, namely, the state of intrigue going on in Cracow, the daily expectation of a rising there, and the state of disturbance in which all the neighbouring provinces of Galicia and the Duahies of Posen and Warsaw were. That was the cause of moving troops into Cracow, which troops the Noble Lord said himself it was found neces sary to withdraw the day after they arrived there. Whether it was necessary on account of the a pp rehension ofa revolution existing in Cracow , o r on account of the insurrection behind them in Galicia, he did not pretend to judge; but it was necessary to withdraw them, and that withdrawal occa sioned the subsequent events in Cracow. The Austrian Go vernment was not to be blamed for that. They were not to be blamed for sending an army—he believed that there were not more than 5,0 f 0, a brigade, under General Collin, but not what k usually called an army—into Cracow. Then the NobflearLaorodt the thought proper to blame the Austrian Government taking precautions, and for not carrying .on o e p n e t rations in a particular manner in Ga licia. Ile believed that he must say he did not think it material, and he did not know whether oae Government had enabled them to judge what those operations ought to have been, or what the fault of the Austrian Govern ment had been on this subject. Neither the subject on which the Noble Lord blamed the Austrian Government, nor that on which he had extolled the Prussian Government ( which he did not at all doubt deserved praise ), had anything to do with these transactions. They had nothing to do with the merits of the arrangement made by Parliament, but were the defects of the Austrian Government. What they had to do - was simply with the breach of the treaty ' which, if any breach of any treaty cou ld be justified, it jwas this very one, but it made th em fully accountable for ail th a t The happened subsequently in Cracow. whole country was —that was to say, the duchies of Warsaw Posen, a n d th e province of Gali c i a —th e t h eatre of war, and it might have been convenient for m ilit ary operations ;) have a large b o dy or a small body of troop s i n Cracow. At one time, as th e Noble Lord s t a t e d himself, there were only a small body of Russian t roo p s ; t h ese were jo:ne d immediately by a body of Austrians, and again by a body of Prussians. The troops of P russ i a, t h e troops of Russia, and of * Austria provinces were in ope ra ti on in th e three rt'ovemps of the samecessurrunding Cracow, whil e th ese th ree b o di es of nations were in Cracow. It was not convenient to leave all these troops in the town of Cracow. Some of them were withdrawn, and the Austrians were left alone; and it was not to be supposed that because these Austrian troops were left alone in Cracow, that therefore the independence of the town was destroyed and made over to the Emperor of Austria. It • was a military occupation for a moment, the occupation hap pened to be convenient to the operations of the three armies at the time, they having no political object in view in any manner affecting the independence of Cracow. He really did not know what the existing arrangements were, nor what the future one was to be. What he understood, when in her Maj , sty's Cabinet was, that the Sovereign had under discus sion measures for re-establishing the independent government of the town of Cracow, and tor placing it in a state of inde pendence, and of course the old a: titles of the treaty would be revived, " that no troops would on any account be placed in that town." He understood that that had been the result of the communication and arrangements. He was certain that with regard to this question it would be better for that Howe to adhere strictly to those points in which this country had a right to interfere, and not a step further with th. internal government of other parts of the country under the adminis ration of different Governmen.s. Lord KINNAIRD thought that the evacuation and oc upation of Cracow had never been properly explained. lie elieved it to have been done with a siew of bringing any onFpiracy to a head. The cruelties which had peen cum flitted were known in many instances to have received the tanetion of the Government of Vienna, or at least of their sub trelinate officers, and be thought that a remonstrance on the part of this country would have much weight in preventing sitniLr occurrences its future. The motion was then agreed to with the amendment. Several Bills were then forwarded a stage, and their Lord ships adjourned until Thursday next. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MAN SION-HOUSE. The justice-room was crowed by persons who were anxious to see Janes Fitzsinnon, the man charged with having robbed the Lord Mayor of a gold watch and appendages on Monday week, at the Blackwall Railway station. The curiosity was the stronger as it was known that the prisoner has been for some time distin guished as a prominent member of the swell mob, and that he had been brought before the Lord Mayor him self a few months ago, in the custody of Daniel -For rester, from Masterman's hank, where he had been watching for victims. The prisoner, who was defended by Mr. Holder, walked into the bar with great confidence. The following was the additional evidence:— Mr. James Hartley, of Bridge-street, Blackfriars, solicitor, stated that he was standing with the Lord Mayor when the prisoner and the smaller man, who was described by the other witnesses, were together, close to his Lordship. Witness fixed his eyes upon the two men the moment they came out of the carriage on the railway. The prisoner (to the witness)—Come, come, speak up ,o that every one may hear you. , The witness—They came suddenly in front of his Lordship. In a moment the shorter man disappeared. Then the Lord Mayor cried out that he was robbed. From the manner in which they both acted, it was quite evident to me that they were acting in concert together, and I at once judged, from their appearance, that they were bad characters. The prisoner —Oh, dear ! so you know a thief by his looks, do you ? Alderman GIBBS—Did you observe them in conversae tion ? Witness—Certainly. The prisoner —State what you heard us say. If you thought us bad characters, you ought to have listened to what we said. Mr. Hartley said he did not hear the conversation. Alderman GlBBS—Should you be able to identify the companion of the prisoner ? Witness—No doubt of it. Mr. Wood, who gave evidence on the day of the first examination, said the prisoner was in concert with the person who stole the Lord Mayor's watch, if not the actual thief. Mr. Hobler—Did you see the prisoner attempt to escape ? Mr, Hartley—l did not see that. I saw from their general appearance that they were pick pockets, and I said so. The prisoner shook his head contemptuously. Mr. alobler—Had you seen them before ? Witness —No. Mr. John Hall, of Bishopsgate-street-without, ware houseman, confirmed the statements made by the other witnesses, in which the prisoner and the shorter man were described as being in connexion. The witness was behind the Lord Mayor when he saw the prisoner and his companion close to his Lordship. When the Lord Mayor called the police the prisoner shrunk back. Here the prisoner, at the desire of Alderman Gibbs, put on his hat. Alderman GIBBS—Put it more completely on your head. The prisoner—l can't, my head's too big. The hat is just as I wear it always. What more can be wanted ? Alderman Glans—ls there any one else here who has anything to say against the prisoner ? Mr. John James Harris, watch manufacturer, of East Smithfield, here stepped forward, and said that he had a charge to make against the prisoner. Ile then stated that on last Friday week, at half-past eight o'clock in the evening, a person of gentlemanly appearance, and taller than the prisoner walked into the shop and asked to see some patent gold levers. Witness showed him three, and he wished to see still better, and spoke about not taking any Geneva watches, or any watch not of English make. Witness then handed him a fourth watch, with a heavy gold chain. There was a lady in the shop at the time, who was known to the witness, and who was looking at ear-rings, and at that moment the pri soner entered and pushed roughly by the lady to reach the party who was looking at the watches. In an instant, by a wonderful sleight of hand, the watch and chain disappeared, and the prisoner too followed by his com panion. Alderman Ginns.--What did the prisoner say upon entering the shop ? Witness—When he squeezed by the lady to get to the place where the party was looking at the watches, he said to me, " Mr. Harris, what do you charge for cleaning a patent lever 2" I replied, 45., and the prisoner went out, and after hire went the other party, and so rapidly was the thin °. done that they were out of the shop before I discovered that the watch was off. Mr. Hobler—Was the prisoner the person who took the watch ? Witness—One of them had it. Mr. Hobler—Did you see the person touch the watch at all ? Witness—l say there was extraordinary sleight of hand made use of, and one of them certainly took the watch. Alderman GlBBS—Should you know the tall man ? Witness—Directly. The prisoner—l am entirely innocent of both of these charges. Miss Susanna Harris said she was in the shop when the prisoner entered the shop, and asked her father what he would charge for cleaning a patent gold lever. She was positive the prisoner was the man, and she was con fident that she saw the other man hand the prisoner something. The prisoner—The witness before you did not say anything of that kind. Miss Susanna Harris—l know you are the man. I saw the tall man hand something to you, and you went out directly, and he followed you. The prisoner—You don't know whether the tall one or the little one took the watch? Miss S. Harris--I am confident the tall man handed something to you, and you went out immediately, followed by him, and the watch was then missed. The young lady added that ' Mr. Gardiner, a neighbour, had seen the prisoner and the tall man looking in at the watches through the window and talking together. Alderman GIBBS asked whether the lady who was in the shop looking at the earrings could give any evidence? Mr. Harris replied that he supposed she could not, as she was so much occupied with the earrings. Miss Mary Ann Harris, another of Mr. Harris's daughters, stated that as she was passing through the shop, she saw the prisoner distinctly, and heard him ask her father what he would charge for cleaning a gold patent lever. She looked at the prisoner*, and the pri soner looked at her. Mr. Hobler—Did you ever see him before ? Witness —Never. Alderman Grans—ls there any body else here who has anything to say against the prisoner? Here a lady in deep mourning stepped forward and said, I should not like to swear, but I am almost con vinced that that is the countenance of the man who robbed me of 421., at a banking-house, in Pall-mall East, on Monday week. I w as at the time in a state of great agitation, having just left my husband on his death bed. I think three of them followed me into the banking-house. I had two distinct views of the prisoner. He had pushed the door open for her as she entered, and he also pushed it open for her as she retired. Alderman GIBBS—Can you swear to his identity ? The lady-4 should not like to swear to him. I think I can swear to him. The face is exactly that face. The prisoner —I never saw the lady before. Mr. Hobler—You know that there are many faces exactly alike. The lady—l do not. I have never seen two countenances exactly alike. I do not think it is in human nature. The prisoner said that all who had spoken against him laboured under mistakes. He had done none of these things at all. Alderman GIBBS remanded the prisoner till Thursday next. The prisoner's confidence and self- Harris suddenly appeared e vidently shaken when Mr. d pos session were to give evidence against him. o so ffi o c n er re w co h v o er h e a d , and showed a disposition to bully the him in custody. It is repot ted that the Lord Mayor's watch was broken up immediately after it disappeared from his Lordship's fob, as, in the absence of the prisoner, it fell into the hands of some of the juniors of the fraternity, who got lid of it with all possible expedition.

Ann Lynch,re manded LAMß ETH. on Saturday last, on a charge of having savagely assaulted a female, named Mary An n P er ki ns, of Marlborough-house , Peel ishain, in the month of February last, was placed at the bar before Mr. Elliott for further examination. Mr. Cochrane, the chairman, and Mr. Jones, the secretary, of the " Poor Man's Guardian Society," were present, with Mr. Humphreys, the solitor, to prosecute ; and Mr. Games was in attendance to watch the proceedings on behalf of Mr. Richards, the proprietor of Marlborough-house, where the assault had been committed. Mr. Humphreys, who attended on behalf of the "Poor Man's Guardian Society," which society had humanely taken up the case, stated the particulars of the murderous assault, and called the following witnesses to prove it. Maria Dennis deposed that in the month of February last, she was en inmate of Marlborough . house , Pec kham, and also a nurse of the casual ward. Early in the morning of a day, the date of which she could not re collect, she heard violent screams of " murder proceed from the ward, and upon going to see what was the matter she saw the prisoner violently ill-using another woman. The prisoner had her hands entangled in the ' hair of the young woman, and pulling it different ways. She also knocked her head against a wall, and pulled a handful of hair out of her head, so that there was a large place bare, and she bled profusely. The prisoner threatened to do for the young woman, and the latter appeared anxious to get cut of the place so as to be out of her reach. Mr. Humphreys—Now look at this young woman, and tell me whether she is the person who was ill-used iu the violent manner you have d,:suibed by the pri- scaler. Witness---I cannot say she is the same person; if it is, she is very much altered, but I have some recollec tion of having seen that person before. The witness further stated that many trifling robberies had been committed on the paupers about the time of the assault, and that she understood that the cause of the prisoner's attack on the young woman was her being detected stealing some money. John Dennis, the husband of the last witness, de posed that he had much difficulty- in disengaging the hands of the prisoner from the hair of th e other women. Mr. Humphreys—Look at this woman, and tell me whether sl.e ;s the person who was ill-used. Witness—l cannot swear she is the same person. Clerk—You did so when a te arrant So apprehend the prisoner had been applied for. Mr. ELLIOTT—Is she the same person to the best Of your belief ? Witness—To the best of my belief she is• The witness proceeded to say that the young women was very much injured, and so violent were the threats of the prisoner, and the terror of the other woman eves so great, that he was glad to get rid of her, so ho gav ° her some dry bread, and let her out at the gate. Mr. Humphreys—And kept the prisoner in. Wit' ness—Yes, sir. Mr. Humphreys—So that the person who was treated in this savage manner you turned out, and kept 0 13 . assaulting party in. Mr. ELLIOTT—Did you send for the police? Wanes° —No, sir. Mr. ELLIOTT—WeII, I must say, that it was a very odd and extraordinary proceeding. Were there no per' sons in charge of this place at the time ? Witness--' Yes, sir; Mr. Richards was in the house at the timer but not present, and I did not consult him or any boa' itlse before I let the young woman out. Mary Ann Perkins, the complainant, was next calle d and sworn.—The unfortunate woman presented a Miff wretched appearance. She had a large bald patch 00 the front part of her head, and it is very doubtful whether she will ever recover the effects of the pl . '', soner's brutality. She deposed that sh e was th e wife "'• Thomas Perkins, who had deserted her. She was in the habit of going to Marlborough-house occasionally t . sleep, and was there in the beginning of February. SI ) : (witness), prisoner, and a thi r d woman slept in the sere' bed one night, and on the following morning when ad were getting up, the prisoner accused her of stealing 1 4 (1. from another pauper in the ward, and instantly coer menced an attack upon her. She seized her by ti e hair of the front part of her head, and knocko l the back of her head repeatedly against tb : wall. She also drew a quantity of hai r f rom the fro part of her head, so as to occasion the bald pl ace s then perceptible. While the priso ne r w as ill- us i ng her Ail Dennis came into the ward a nd ca ll e d ou t t o h e r to IL' her (witness) go, and not kill h er ou t r i g ht. The pr'' soner was so furious that it was w ith muc h difficulty su: could be released from her grasp, b u t as soon as she Wi t ' she was anxious to avoid her fury, and asked the It Dennis to let her out of the place, which she did. Su; might have been to Marlborough-house as many as tbr e s or tour times in five years, and had always to the thr she spoke of received all necessary protection. VII leaving Marlborough-house she was bleeding very we e . / and very faint and ill, but she made the best of her to Guy's Hospital, where she remained about five week' She left before she was at all recovered,and subsequer went into the Westminster Hospit a l, w h ere she '; mained for some time. She did not give her real name at either of those hospital s , nor did s h e te ll the 114 11' cause of her injuries to the medic a l men w h o attended her. There was nothing whatev er th e matter w ith up to the time when she was ill used by the prison e i l: but since then she had suffered muc h f rom h e r be ;d and was not well yet. In conclusion, the witness said she did not wish to do anything to hurt the prisoner, as she had behaved to her. ftls Evidence was here given of the apprehension e as prisoner, and the discovery of the complainant, who , he t for a long time supposed to be dead. It appeared 1 0 . 0 the " Poor Man's Guardian Society " had offered 0, guineas for her production, and Mr. Richards o % fli guineas more ; and this circumstance being made "ise to the complainant. herself, she went to 'Marlboro r house and gave herself up to Mr. Richards. Mr. Humphreys, after a few remarks, said w l ll leave the ease in his Worship's hard:, to deal with;liop he might deem proper. If it was his Worship's OP- b i e that it should go to the sessions, the res P eer it § society he had the honour to represent would ; mt. duty and prosecute ;orif it should he the h s G o a n m er e , s ;h o e n n the behalfs o c o i r e tAyi altogether. matter, and o a o m d e h s e s i a n i g d h th e e h re ad m re e c r e e i l v y ed to no watc h the case he Mr. would.
