THE STATE APARTMENTS AT WINDSOR CASTI.V.— WHITSUN WEEK.—The State Apartments at Windsor Castle, and also the Round Tower, have been commanded to be *pen to the public during every day this week, from eleven till four o'clock, for the accommodation of the holiday visitors to the town. It was not, however, known to Sykes, the porter at the tradesmen's entrance to the Castle, until ;nearly one o'clock on Monday, that any new regulation for the Whitsun week had been determined upon. Seve ra l parties from London, who had arrived at the Castle before that hour were unfortunately turned back, although possess ing the Lord Chamberlain's tickets, in consequence of no official notice on the subject having been given to the porter. As it was, but very few persons arrived in the town pro vided with tickets of admission. Monday being one of the days, since the commencement of the year, on which the 'State Apartments and the Round Tower are closed. This Tublic notification, it is hoped, may be the means of prevent ing similar disappointment to visitors during the remainder a the week. The orders that none can be admitted to the State-room' without. tickets, dated within one week of the day on which they are pr esente d are peremptory, and most strictly acted upon. The opening of the North British Railway, pos from nad t E o thedin u rg - bh to Cockburnspath, has been further postponed 15th Gf June.

This was a suit for ttie administration of the real and personal property deviied by the testator, rre Lander, to Jam,s Lander, and in ca,..,e of his death, to James Binds', the defendant, for the plaintiff, the infant son of the testator—the bill asserting m i s management on the part of Kindel, into whose hands the estate ha d fallen by the death of James Lander, Mr. Rostuaff applied to have the accounts taken. The decree was ordered accordingly. BATLEY V. LAMBERT. This suit arose out of a deed made between th e Davis, pilain tiff and defendant, on the one part , an d James s, on the other, and was to try whether certain assets obtain ed Bailey and the deed should be dist ributed between and Lambert in the proportion of their respective debts, or whether Lambert should be allowed a priority of claim. It appeared that James Paynter Davis, postmaster, ' and James Davis, his son, executed a deed in September, 1842, giving over to the son all the horses, carriages. chattels, and effects, proper for carrying on the busine of a postmaster, as security for a debt of 79L in money, and several bills of exchange and promissory notes, being accommodation bills for which James Davis was liable, and giving him power in case of non payment to take and dispose of the effects mentioned. The son took possession of the property, but immediately after, in 1843, a fiat in bankruptcy was issued against James P. Davis, the father, and the assignees o f the bank ruptcy began an action against the son to recover the pro perty; but this action was quashed, and a deed was executed inJune,lB43, between James Davis on the one part, and Lambert and Bailey on the other, which gave the latter possession of the horses and effects, with power to dis pose of them by private sale or public auction ; and, after paying all expeenses, to liauidaw a debt of 60/. and of 25/. due to the assignees, Lambert .and Bailey. and then to pay the bills and notes due respectively to Lam bert and to Bailey, the former having a claim of 200/., and the latter of 1881. against the estate. It was found, however, that the remaining assets were insufficient to meet both these claims, and Lambert demanded to have his claim settled in full previously to Bailey coming in. This priority of claim was rested on the first deed, in the schedule annexed to which Lambert's debt stood first. His Hostoun intimated the strongest opinion that the defendant had no interest whatever in the first deed ; and that under the second he had no priority of claim over the plaintiff. The Court ordered the case to stand over, that there might be time to read the deeds ; but, unless there should be reason fur a change of opinion, it will make a decree in favour of the plaintiff, with costs. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, June 2. (Sittings in Banco.) The Court at its sitting delivered some judgments ; but they were devoid of any special interest calling for a particular report. The Court then proceeded . _to hear arguments upon demurrers which stood over for discussion. WHITTAKER V. RICHARDS. This was an action of assumpsit, involving several breaches of the covenants of an agreement, and was in teresting as a question often arising between landlord and tenant. It now came before the Court in the shape of a special demurrer, assuming the character and form of a general demurrer set up by the defendant to the plain tiff's delaration. It appeared that a gentleman named Jones leased for a term of years certain premises at Highgate to the plaintiff in this action, Mr. Whittaker, a solicitor in Lincoln's Inn, and that there were several covenants in the lease binding plaintiff, and amongst them one to keep the premises in a state of re pair during the term of his holding. Plaiiltiff sublet the premises to the defendant fur a term of two years, short of one day ; and the defendant in the agreement was alleged to have bound himself to the perfcirmance on his part of" all the covenants" in the original agree ment between plaintiff and Mr. Jones. Plaintiff's de claration pleaded that defendant had thus bound himself to keep the premises in repair, and that not merely for the term of his taking, but for the larger term of seven years, for which plaintiff was bound to keep them in re pair. To this the plaintiff demurred, and the case nuw came on to be argued. Mr. PEACOCK appeared for the plaintiff, and con tended for the larger construction, maintaining that the defendant had made himself liable, upon strict investiga tion of the agreement, to keep the premises in repair for the term of the plaintiff's holding the agreement showing that he had bound himself to take the premises, subject to all the covenants in the original lease. Mr. Bunnr, for the defendant, held the contrary; and submitted that the plaintiff's declaration was ambiguous; that it would be absurd to suppose that the defendant would for a moment bind himself to the fulfilment of " all the covenants" in the original lease; as, for in stance, the covenant binding plaintiff to pay his rent. Surely the Court would not for a moment suppose that the defendant would bind himself to that covenant ? Looking, then, at the case altogether, he (Mr. Burni) submitted to the Court that the construc tion of the agreement was limited, the defendant intend ing the narrower construction of two years when he took the premises; that the plaintiff's declaration was bad, and that the judgment should be for the defendant. The Court conferred together for some time, and de livered judgment in favour of the plaintiff, the Learned Judges respectively holding that, in the terms of the agreement, the defendant had put himself in the position of the plaintiff respecting the repairs, and bound himself to the covenants for plaintiff's term, it appearing to the Court that he took the premises with that understanding COURT OF EXCHEQUER,.kray 30. (Sittings in Banco.) WALSTAB V. SPOTTISWOODE. The arguments in this ease were resumed and con cluded to-day. It may be remembered that this was an action brought by an allottee of scrip in the Direct Birmingham, Oxford, Reading, and Brighton Railway, to recover from the de f‘ndant, as a provisional committeemati thereof, the amount of the deposit paid on 30 shares in that scheme, which was not proceeded with in the preient ses-ion of Parliament for lack of funds, there being only 4,000 de posits out of 70,000 shares which had been issued. The declaration contained a special count on an alleged con tract by the defendant to give to the plaintiff 30 shares in the propesed railway, in consideration that the plain tiff would pay the deposits and sign the deeds which are usually required in such cases, and it averred the pay ment of the deposit, and a readiness to cqmply with tie other conditions, and a breach by the defendant on his part. A second count was in the common form for money had and received. To these the defendant pleaded non assumpsit, and a verdict having passediat the trial for the plaintiff under the direction of the Chiltf Baron, a rule nisi was obtained to enter a nonsuit on the ground of mis direction, which now came on for argument. Mr. Jervis and Mr. Willes showed cause on behalf of the plaintiff. There were three questions raised by this case. As to the first point, it was contended that the contract was proved, inasmuch as it was set forth fully in the letters of application and of allotment, which were in the usual terms employed by protnoters of such schemes, and contained an express promise, on the part of the defendant, as a provisional committeeman, made by the secretary of the company on hilt behalf, that if the plaintiff would pay the deposit of 41. 12s. 6d. per share, and subscribed certain deeds, the letter of allot ment with the bankers' receipts would be exchanged at the office for scrip certificates, on a certain day. When the plaintiff applied for her scrip. she wa, informed by the secretary, and Mr. Blunt, the chairman. that the comm!ttee had resolved to wind up the scheme under counsel's ajvice, and that she could not have her shares or her money, t'67 the latter was all spent. in _prelitni nary expenses, except - perhaps a small surplus, which - Would be returned to her in !lona:ion with the other de positors on 4,000 shares, if any was ultimately found to exist. This the provisional directors had no right to do, the retention of this money, or any part of it, being in direct violation of the contract set forth ill the letter of allotment. Mr. Baron ALDERSON—The argument of the defers • dant is, that there is no such contract in that letter. Mr. WILLEs—The contract is in thel last letter, and not in the two together, and if any part of the second letter is an intimation, why not all of it ? The great question, however, arises under the second count, which is for 781. 155., as for money had and received by the defendant to the use of the plaintiff, the groundwork of that count being, that that sum having been paid by the plaintiffwithout any consideration being received for it, the defendant_ is bound to restore the whole of it to her as a. pioyis4ona , lf , s on=l o t i t i eeman of this scheme, which, as she however,conte contends nds that Keaibsandaned. v i The defendant, .or such part of this sum as has " been s retain the whole sent in legitimate preliminary preparations for for min but this question has been already decided s o w m t p e a rc a Z, e ; of " Nockella v.

This case was decisive of this Baron ALDERsON—Was t h ere any proo f that t h at argument. mr. sum had been so deposited ?

On t he 1001., or 2s. id. on ea ch share, it seems to me very much red for the p ur p ose of bein g as though that was required spent in forming the company. e reuired to The CHIEF BARON — An d t hatmust be enginqeers and meet future expenses, not to pay r surveyors. Mr. Baron ALDERSON — And then only w h e n there are 80,000 shares subscribed for. Nockells v. Crosby is for you as to the 21 . 10 s. , a nd a g ainst you as to the 2s. 6d. per share. in Mr. MARTIN, Mr. F. V. L ee, and Mr. Peacock, support of the rule, protested, in the first instance, against the turn which the argument had taken through the suggestion of Mr. Baron Alderson. There was no distinction taken between the 10L per cent. and the 10s. per cent. at the trial, nor ware the standing orders re ferred to once. It so happened that the sum paid in eluded 101. per cent. and 2s. 6d. per share; but no allusion was made at the trial to this point; and if the Court, were to depart from the common understanding at trials, when cases came on cop Argument parties would never know how to conduct their cases. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to argue that the contract 24 forth in the declaration had not been proved by the letters. With respect to the second count, the plaintiff cannot be entitled to recover the whole of this deposit in any view of the ca'e. If the Court should hold that the defenchet was restionsible to tl-:at event they would decide in effect that parties might sp,:cu laic and gamble in these schemes, riskkg no thing, run the chance o f gaining ,„, r7 . thin2 .. w so hold. lot it " N ,ekeds v. Cro,hv" d. ca l,d a Inucliel time: , over, he (Mr. .11:rifi) wr.)1.11(1 still contend that gross injustice had b- , en peri-trat , U by it. Appearing there for Mr. Sp , ttiswoode, who was thus attacked, he (Mr. Martin) felt himself justified in protecting him on strictly technical grounds, and he mu-t now deny that there was any evidence to prove that this company had been abandoned in the first place, that being the foundation of the plaintiff's cause of action on the said count. What Mr. Blunt said was no evi dence against Mr. Spottiswoode. The CHIEF BARON—No; but the evidence was not objected to, and formed part of your cross-examination. Mr. MARTIN—At all events there was nothing to show that there was a total abandonment ; neither was there evidence that the promoters bound themselves to go to Parliament in this session. Difficulties might prevent their doing so now, but they might go on next session, and until it clearly was proved that there had been a total failure of consideration, this action could not be sustained to recover back the de posit. The Company had an existence under its provi sional registration for twelve months, and the committee had no power under the Act to dissolve it. Itstill existed, therefore, and might be yet carried out. Under these circumstances, therefore, the Learned Counsel submitted that the rule to enter a nonsuit must be, made obsolete on one or other of the grounds on which it had been granted. .The plaintiff had ask-d for an allotment of shares ; that she had got, and it remained to be seen whether the scheme was abandoned. The CHIEF BARON—The Court will take time to consider its judgment in this case, which is most im portant. Mr. Baron ALDERSON—I confess I cannot distinguish this case from " Nockells v. Crosby," unless the scheme be not abandoned. That is a question of fact, on which there was very slight evidence indeed. It may turn out that it is not abandoned. Judgment deterred. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. THE FORGERY OF THE BUCKINGHAMSHIRE RAILWAY AND OXFORD AND BLETCHLEY SCRlP.—Yesterday, the same degree of interest which was manifested on the first examination of Faulkner and Fabian. the pe-sons who stand charged with the forging of the scrip of the Buckinghamshire Railway, and Oxford and Bletchley Junction Company, display ed itself in the justice room at the more detailed investigation. Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution, under taken by Mr Solornons against the prisoners, for the forgery of scrip to the amount of 500/ ; and Mr. Ballan tine and Mr. Doane attended for the prisoners. "Alder man Gibbs pr , sided. Mr. W. Harding, secretary to the Company; was the first witness called by the Counsel for the prosecution. Fie stated that the offices of the Company were in George-street, Westmitister. He ordered the scrip from for the Comp.ny, under the direction of the 11)ard of Nfanagement, and Messrs Smith and Ebbs, of Tow( r-hill, were the only persons who executed the printing of the scrip. (Here a genuine scrip form was identified by the witness.) He had the counterfeit of the scrip produced. The numbers were noted by the clerks and signed by hini, and the issue commenced in October. (A Tiantity of what appeared to be copies the goluine scrip was then produced.) He believed the forms pro duced to be spurious. He had signed all the genuine scrip, and the forgeries were skilful copies of his writing, and had all the characteristics of the genuine vouchers The good and the fictitious were not printed at the same time. The genuine and the forged documents were then ex amined by Alderman Gibbs. The following, is a copy of one of the forged scrip: 1845. (Scrip.) Buckingham Railway, and Oxford, and Bletehley Juncti,,n. Provisionally Registered. Capital, 2,250,0001. in shares of 201. each. Deposit, 2/. 2s. per share. No. 70 401 to 70,450. The holder of this voucher is entitled to 50 shares in the ab , ,ve undert•akinr, behaving signed the subscr►bers, agreement and Parliamentary contract, paid the dep. sir as above, and agreed to pay all calls in respect of the said shares. By order ofthe Provisional Committee of Management, W. Li xRDING. The difference between the copy produced and the genuine scrip was not perceptible to an ordinary ob server, so that the witness appeared to test the quality of the documents by a comparison with the counterfoil. In his cross-examination by Mr. Ballantine, who did not consider it necessary to go strictly into the question on the present stage of the proceedings, Mr. Harding said that the company had not yet obtained its Act of Parliament, and there were no certificates commonly called shares. The scrip, without the signature of the party to whom the allotment was made to the deed, would intitle the party to nothing. It was the signa ture to the deed that intitled the party to the shares. In re-examination by Mr. Clarkson, the witness said the Company was provisionally registered, according to the late Act of Parliament. There had been no scrip issued to so high a number as 70,000 by the Company. Mr. Ballantine professed the utmost indifference a; to the name Which the pieces of paper produced might be called whether they were d,,signated as rec, , ipts, or vouchers, or warrants. He thought it would be a very difficult matter to prove that they ar9, instruments of any value at 611—(A laugh.) Mr. Charles Moody, lithographer, of High Holborn, was next called. He stated tlrat about two months ago, in consequence of an advertisement which appeared in the Times newspaper, addressed to lithographers, he we.lt to No. 42, Gower-place, and there saw the prisoner Fabian, and another gentleman. Fabian said they were in want of a competent lithographic printer, and one who had a press of a size which he mentioned. Witness said he had been many years a lithographic printer, and was eompetent to undertake anything relating to lithography. Fabian was the person who spoke to him most. That prisoner said he wanted some impressions to he worked from pla.es which he had, and he wanted them to be worked under his own eye. Witness intimated that of course they would want an experienced person to litho graph. Fabian said No, they laid their own plans. The other gentleman, who was lying on a sofa smoking a cigar, said but little. Witness did nut recognise him in the justice room. They said they wished the work done there, and witness told them if the work was of such consequence they could have a room in his house, and they would keep the key, and he wiiuid forfeit 501 as compensation if anything was injured or touched. H e was induced to make the proposition because they ap peared to consider the matter to be of great consequence, and that not one was to be parted with or seen. They st , sited that they wished the work to be dorm while they were personally present, and each would be worth 50/. They asked what the expense might be, to which witness replied, that he did not really know, but that his time was valuable, and he expected an adequats recompense, and they then said that the expense did not signify. They added that they were glad the suggestion had been ma& as to the room with the press in it, and they promised to call next morning, but they did not keep their word. Mr. Ballantine (pointing to the forged scrip)—ls that lithographic printing ? Witness—l cannot say whether it is or not. My impression is that it is nut letter-press, but it is from stone or a zinc plate. Alderman Glens —I should have supposed it was letter press. Witness—l do not think it is. 11‘,Calarkson said Oteuld next produce a witntsir: who would testify `as to a transaction in -Buckingham shire shax:es; with Faulkner only. -- -- Mr. John Benton, speculator or jobber in railway shares, stated that he knew Faulkner, and received from him 250 Buckinghamshire, &c. scrip, in February or March, to raise a certain sum of meney upon. He could not say whether Fabian was present at the time, but he thoug•ht it was from Faulkner's hand he received the scrip. He had no doubt, whatever, that he received it from Faulkner. It must have been some days previously to the 17th of Mareh. (Witness here specified the num bers of the 250 scrip stated in this case to be forged.) He parted with the scrip to Mr. John Henry Morgan, he thought, on the same day. He raised, he thought, 2501. upon it, and paid that sum to Faulkner and Fabian. One receipt he received from Faulkner, and the other from Faulkner and Fabian's clerk, eacr of whom acted in the transaction. He was nearly sure that he paid 150/. to Faulkner ; and, he believed, the receipt pro duced, was in Faulkner's hand-writing. Mr. John Henry Morgan stated that he was a share jobber. He received 250 shares from Mr. Benton on the 13th of March, and he sold them the same day to two different stockbrokers. lie paid the money he re ceived also on the same dey. Mr. Thomas Green, shale agent, of No. 16. Old Broad street. a partner in the house of Jones, Cook, and Green, stated, on the 13th March he received 150 shares from Mr. Morgan fur sale, after the Stock Exchange had closed. He paid for 100 of those shares, deducting Commission. 1471. 10s. to Mr. Morgan in Batik notes, and soon afterwards he paid to him for the other 50 shares, 73/. 155., deducting commission.

BOW-STREET. George Smith, a yount: man, in the dress of a sailor, was placed at the bar before Mr. Jardine, upon the charge of stealing a large quantity of book=, many of them very scarce and all very valuable, the property of his late employer, Mr. Stewart, of King William -street, bookseller. The evidence was very voluminous, and occupied the Court till after two o'clock. He was re manded for a fortnight. MARYLEBONE. THE ENRAGED OFFICER OF MARINES AND THE Bo , iTMAKER—EXTRAORDINARY OUTRAGE.—Lieutena , st Gun Mahon, of the R-yal Marines, who res , des at No, 31, Cambridge-plaice, Edgeware-road. was charged with having assaulted John Bu,hley Simmons, under the fol lowing extraordinary circumstances : Complainant stated that he was shopman to his bro ther, 29, Upper York -street, and that on the previous Monday nanrifing, agreeably to orders, he was taking home a pair of boots for defendant to try on, when he (defendant ) rn-t him on the road, and having ascertained from him that the boots were his, desired him to carry them to his dwelling, at the same time telling him that upon his call ing fel. the money in the evening he would be paid. Not liking to leave the boots without the sanction of his employer, he returned with them to the shop, and at seven in the evening again repaired with them to the house, when the servant by whom he was admitted told him that he must wait a little while, as defend ant was then with another gentleman. In the course of five m nutes he was sent for by defendant, and on going into the apartment in which the two gentlemen were, he (defendant) told him that, for his mester's insolence, he should neither have money nor hoots. The bell was rung, and on a c arv i ng -k n if e b e i ng brought in by direction of def en d an t, h e cut t h e l eg part of the boots into several pieces, having done which. he threw the feet, or slippers, towards com plainant, whom he threatened to kick out of the place in the event of his not leaving very speedily. Complain ant added, that he at length quitted the house, but not before defendant had rushed upon him and knocked him d-wn upon the sofa, threatening that he would give him a d—d good licking, if it cost him 51. Defendant's answer to the charge was, that the com plainant impudently walked into the room while he was at dinner with his friend, Captain Tringham, and; seating himself, expressed his intention of remaining in the com fortable position he was occupying, as he felt. Very tired, and refused to leave on being told to call in the morning. He (defendant) admitted having cut off the top parts of the bo its, but denied having laid hands upon complainant at all. Defendant said he had no witnesses in attendance, his friend Captain Tringharn being engaged with Sir George Cockburn at the Admiralty. Walter Dickenson said that he was nephew of the landlady, and that complainant was not knocked down on the ..ors. Defendant certainly did cut the hoots into se veral pieces. Lieutenant Mahon was ordered to enter into his own recognizance fur his appearance to answer the charge at the sessions, in the event of anindictment being preferred against him. Mr. Wontner—What am I to do, your worship, -,bout netting paid for the boots which have been de s royed ? Mr. RAwmrtsox—l can't get the money for you ; I think you have been used very badly, and you know the course which I have left open to you. PEACE WARRANT.—Mr. Conrad Cooper Wa3 charged with having threatened to pat a bullet into Mr. Storey, a leviti,t, carrying on bu.iness in Fleet -street, and who re sides in Nelson-square, BlackfriarA-road. .Vlr. Wontner attended for complainant, and another solicitor for defendant. A great deal of evidence pro and con. was gone into, from %Ilia it appeared that for some time part defencl,nt, who at tine period had lived with complainant, and who was also a dentist, had continual's . annoyed him, and threatened complainant, whom he had vowed to" bullet," as sworn to in the,. arrant. Defendant was held to bail, himself in 100/., and two sureties in 50/. each, for his appearance at the sessions. WORSHIP-STREET. • CHARGES OF Fas.urt —George Keal, a rather-re spectable linking elderly man, with very plausible man ners, was placid before Mr. Broughton for examination, upon a charge of defrauding Mr. John Spencer, a beer shop keeper, at Stoke Newington. Ile prisoner, it appeared, .had called at Messrs. Lane and Co's., brewers, to inquire if there was any public house in their trade to be disposed of, stating that he was out of business himself, but wanted a house for his son ; and Mr. Perry, the manager of Messrs. Lane's brewery, gave him a card to the complainant, Spencer, who wished to sell his business. The prisoner drove the same day in a chaise to the complainant's, accompanied by a young man whom he introduced as his sou, and producing Mr. Perry's card, entered at once upon the matter in question, stating that he was himselt a free vintner who had made enough to live independently, but wished to put his son into business. The complainant observed that the house which he was about to dispose of was a very good one, and that he should require 8001. few the lease, and 3501. for fixtures, &c., to which the prisoner replied that, although money was no object, he certainly would not give more than 7001. for that house. After much convers.itien, however, over cigars and ale, he agreed to give 7501, and proposed to leave at once 50/. as a deposit, until the agreement could be formally completed. He then drew a cheque for the 50/. upon Jones Loyd and Co., with whom he said he banked, and as he was going away carelessly remarked that he had come out without cash, and asked the complainant to lend him half a crown until t'.e following day. The complainant made no difficulty about that, but upbn in quiry at Messrs. Jones Loyd and Co's., he ascertained that the chi que drawn upon them by the prisoner was fictitious, and soon after he found the prisoner at another house in his neighbourhood, bargaining for that in a precisely similar way. At the first exampiation, Mr. Vine, the chief clerk, recognised the prisoner as having been in custody at Bow-street, upon similar charges, several years back. Mr. Bitoucfrrost, the magistrate, now made known, that in consequ-nce of the publicity given to the first examination, he had received a communication from Dublin, which he now produced. The communicati n was addressed to the magistrate by" Mr. Thomas Stirling, of the Royal Canal -terrace, Dublin," who wrote that he had himself been victimised by a Mr. George K al. the same person, he believed, whose examination at Worship -street he had just seen in the London papers. The case was this :—An adver tisement appearett in , the Dublin papers which induced agent for the purAiase of fowl., actually transmitted goods to the 21/., and had received Keal's bill eggs,h ffir i r m m2 t ot o os: .hte madethe , c e o andm m oh : lea : y e - ht • aaalbod' of 211., at ,desirs. Latouche and Co., Dublin, but which he had reason to fear was mere waste paper, and would never be honoured. Mr. Dent, a furniture dealer, in Crawford-street, pre ferred a charge against the prisoner, who, on the 13th ult., ordered 171. worth of goods to be sent to him in South-street, Manchester-square. He was to pay on delivery, but managed to get possession without pay ment. Since his arrest part of the g rods, now in pos. session of the police, had been found in the cellar at the honse in South-street. The prisOlier;vas again remanded for a weeks fiegh charges were expected aeSinst him. LAMBETH. GROSS CRUELTY TO A i loßSE.—John Gartland, a wag goner in the service of Mr. James Atkins, of Riddles down, near Croydon, was charged before Mr. Elliott with grossly torturing a horse, the property of his master. George Weston, an ex-police sergeant, deposed that, about eleven o'clock that forenoon, he saw the prisoner drive a team of three horses, with a waggon-load of lime. The shaft-horse had its tongue secured at about the middle, with a noose on the end of a sash line, the other end of which was tied round the head, and part of a hedge•stake screwed i❑ it along the jaw to tighten it. The horse, at the time, was kicking violently, and the prisoner struck it repeatedly with his clenched fist on the nose. Observing the animal was in a shockire; state, its tongue, which was hanging out of its mouth to a con siderable extent, being very much swollen, and bleeding profusely from a deep wound caused by the tightness of the noose, he (witness) proceeded to the station-house at Brixton and procured the assistance of a constable, who took the prisoner into custody. On returning to the waggor, with the constable the cord was in a different position, and in a manner which put the animal, if pose sible, to more pain than before, for the blood was flowing much more copiously from its mouth, and the prisoner threw several handfuls of dust on the wound to prevent the appearance of its bleeding so much. A police constable corroborated the evidence of the last witness. The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said, the horse waa-a regular kicker, and he was obliged to drive him by the orders cif his master. He. denied,' hosvever,lhat° the cruelty was to the extent stated by the witnesses. Weston and the policeman huth declared they had not at all exaggerated the facts, and said, that every person who had seen the animal were dreadfully shocked at th cruelty which had been exercised towards it. Weston added, that there was a second horse in the waggon which was in a very unfit state to be at work, as it had a large festering sore on its near hip, from which matter was then exuding, and attended with a quantity of flies, so that its sufferings must have been very great. Mr, ELLIOTT, addressing the prisoner, observed it was quite r.

A 'o ll utl l L N W E a T s with piciiiing the poclp-t of a woman i and, when taken into custody for that offence, and locked up in a cell, there robbing a fi-llow -prisoner of some silver. It appeared that on Saturday night, a p:ior woman, Ulm- d :Marks, w e nt to a p awn broker's shop in the New t.; t i'or the purposp r i f reflepnaing polpe articles ti , lifb had in pl e d ge.

The p risoner was then taken t o the Tower-street station, and placed in a cell With 4 mu 4 u • 4 Th peon who, on being locked u? apie op ! ••• , petty chc:rge, declared he he,l no money about him, thus privented the police Iron iwarolling him, to take c.i.re whatsoever cash he had about bitn. In the coin e of the niviht, the prisoner celled out from the cell than his fellow•prisnne,r was throwing money at him in the, dark, end he begged to be released from the soci , ty of such a liberal companion. The uoliceinati, on en tering the cell, found Thompson asleep, and his pockets turned inside out, although the prisoner had previously declared that that person had pelted him with money. The sleeper was awakened, and he then admitted that he had concealed the fact of his having money, never dreaming that he would be deprived of it in the cell. The prisoner, on the other hand, was loud in his declarations of inntweeti,e, aid boldly stood f-rward to challenge the most scruti nizing search, throwing his, acket and waistcoat open, and pulling inside out all his pockets. " There," said he, " I hope I have satisfied you I have not robbed the gentleman." The policeman, however, was not satisfied with what was done, and on instituting a further search he at length discovered a quantity of silver, taken from Thompson when he was asleep by the prisoner, care fully tied up in the corner of the shirt of the latter. The prisoner, in the most impudent manner, said !hat although appearances were against him, yet he was innocent. The prisoner, who betrayed no feeling, was then sent for trial. THAMES. ASSAULT BY AN AMERICAN WITH A. BOWIE KNIFE.— A man of gigantic proportions, rrainea - John Webster, a lias Crowther, an American seaman, was brought before Mr. Broderip, charged with committing a murderous assault on Edward Connor, a lame man, and attempting to stab him with a knife. The American seamen in the port of London are in the habit of wearing large knives in a sheath, and they have, on many occasions, used them. The practice is attended with very great danger, and in this case it will be seen that the prosecutor had a very narrow escape of hie life.. The complainant stated that he was at the Phoenix public-house in Upper East Smithfield, near the St. Katherine Dock. The prisoner was there swaggering and bullying, and said he eighed 9st. 41b., and would fight anybody of that weight. Witness observed that the prisoner was the biggest man be had seen for a long time, and he must weigh a gond deal more than he had stated. The prisoner then struck an old man in the tap room, and wanted to quarrel with him. Witness remonstrated with the • risoner, who asked him to take up the quarrel and fight. He told him he was a cripple, and had lost the use of both legs, and could not fight. The prisoner said he would take the shine out of any one —that he was going to spar at one of the booths in Stepney fair, and wanted to get his hand in. At last the brother of witness agreed to fight the prisoner, and they went out and had one round outside the public-house doer. -The prisoner got the worst*of 'it, Aral came into - the tap room again, and called for - some beer. After the prisoner had drunk it he threaVtied.to•clo for him. After some further abuse from the prisoner he left the rot.m. The prisoner was absent about an hour, and on entering the room he advanced directly towards witness, and drew a knife from his sheath, which was made fast to his waist, and made a most determined and deliberate attempt to plunge it into his body. Witness parried the blow, and the point of the knife grazed his ;la , •ket, which was loose, just under the armpits, on the left side, cutting the iacket as it slid along. The prisimer was about to make another attempt to stab him, ;Own the people in the room pinioned his arms, and secured him until a police man arrived. The witness added. that if the stab made at him bad taken effoct, he should have been a dead man. Gray, a police-constable, No. 204 H. produced the knife, a weapon of a formidable description, with a very sharp point, and said the prisoner threw it away, oppo site Butler's-buildings. on his way to the station-house. The prisoner said he was very drunk on Saturday night. and his head had been affected by a wound. Mr. BRODERIP committed the prisoner, in default of hail, for trial. JOSEPH ADY IN THE COLONlES.—Yesterday Mr. Bro• derip stared that he had received a letter from Mr. Thomas Mad locks, a g ,, ntleman residin = at Liverpool which inclosed one of Joseph Adv's ciroulam addressed to Mr. William Adamson, Barhacfoes, from which it ap peared that Ady had no t con fi ne d hi mse lf t o Great Britain in the selection of victims, and that the people in the colonies had been led to expect something consi derably to their advantage, and with the usual result. Ady forwarded a circular to ,‘lr. Adamson on the 14th of December, 1843, stating that he could inform him of something considerably to his advantage on receipt of 20s. for his trouble. Mr. Maddocks, in his communica tion to the magistrate, states that his relative in Bar bsdoes, never having heard of Adv's practices, was so fully impressed with the truth of his information, that he sent over a power of attorney to receive 1001., men tioned in Ady's note ; indeed such was the credulity of Mr. Adamson, that he presented the money, in case it was received, to Mrs. Maddocks, his daughter. The worthy Magistrate's correspondent, however, was o too sufficiently north" to send Mr. Ady the 205., or to further trouble himself in the matter. Ady's circulars extended to India, China, and Africa, and he annoyed a great many of our countrymen in those distant regions by leading them to expect something to their advantage, and then disappointing them. SWINDLING AT WINDSOR. WINDSOR, MONDAY EVENING.—The cheque paid into the Windsor Bank by the swindler assuming the name of .‘ J. H. Wyndham," was drawn upon the Gloucester shire Banking Company, at Gloucester. and was for 1501. It appears, from information received by Messrs. Neville Reid and Co., the Windsor bankers, from the Glouces tershire Banking Company, that " Mr. Wyndham" has passed similar cheques at Oxford, Dover, and other towns in the provinces, where he has been equally suc cessful as in ,this neighbotirhOod In" fleecing tradesmen and innkeepers of their goods and chattels to a con siderable amount. He - has also played off tricks of a like nature upon several tradesmen in London, ob taining goods and other property by means of cheques upon banking establishments where he was totally unknown. A description of him has since appeared in the Lyndon Police Gazette, but it is expected, from the various diTtusea he assumes, that there will be some difficulty in a stranger, from such published description, being enabled to recognise him. Dining the time he was at the Royal Hotel, at Slough, he invariably . wore spectacles, and his dark whiskers were combed towards the back of his head. When he paid a visit to Mr. Yarrow, at Eton, to order " a wedding suit," and to Mr. Hanson, at Windsor, to order a watch and other articles of jewellery, he had doffed his glasses, and his whiskers were combed the reverse way. It would appear that if the Windsor Bank had adopt( d the necessary and usual precautions, neither Mr. (tan son nor Mr. Yarrow, at Eton, would have been " done" out of their property. Mr. Yarrow, as has been stated, called at the hank some hours b.fore he sent the fellow his "wedding suit" to the Royal Hotel, at Slough, where he was informed the cheque was "all right." The cheque given to Mr. Hanson (just after the bank 11.4 d closed for the day, the transaction not having taken place until between three and four o'clock in the alter non), was sent down to the bankers immediately after wards, .+ hen the message returned with it was (as in the case of Mr. Yarrow) that it was " all right." Had it been otherwise. the property could have been easily re covered, as " Mr. Wyndham" did not leave Slough for London until upwards of five hours afterwards. As it is, however (fortunately for Mr. Hanson and Mr. Yar row), the % 1 1, indsor bankers, under the circumstances, are considered to be liable to p a y th e amount of the cheques respectively held by them. POISONING IN NORFOLK. THE CORONER'S INQUIRY RESUMED. VAPPISBURGET, MORNING.—In consequence of the disclosures that have been made in the course of the private inquiry instituted by the Secretary of State, J. Pilgrim, Esq., one of the coroners for Nortnik, opened another investigation this day at East Ruston. a village three miles distant, on the bodies of other persons related to the deceased Jonathan Bulls, who are supposed to have died from the effects of poison adnai nestered by him. The empannelling of another jury to inquire into this appalling affair is understood to be the result of very imp • rtant communications from the Government officers to the coroner, the result of their in quiries having led to considerable suspicion as to other deaths in the family of Jonathan Bills. By the list hang(' to the coroner, by the “fficers, of the suspected victims, we find, in addi•ion to the per-ons whose deaths were inquired into at the former inquest, that of Anna Peges, a grandchild, who died on the 7th of June, 1839, in her eighth year, and was buried at Ingham Chappl,. in ,the neighbourhood. From some unexplained circumstances it was exhumed about three weeks after it had been interred, and Mr. Pilgrim held an inquest upon the body ; but the sur- geon considering that it had died from fever, a verdict of natural death was returned. The next on the list is Maria Green, daughter of Mrs. Green (another daughter of Jonathan Balls). It was fifteen months old, died on the 25th of December, 1836 ; William Green, also a grandchild, aged two years, died on the 31st of October, 1841 ; lastly, Martha Green, of the same family. She died when fifteen months old, after visiting old Balls' house, and was buried with the others in East Ruston church -yard. At nine o'clock thelift4e, cdmplised of the principal gentry in the neighbourhood, met Mr. Pilgrim, the county coroner, at the public inn, East Ruston, and after the usual formalities were sworn, the bodies of the three children named Green, which had that morning been cisinterred, being viewed by them, were handed over to the medical gentlemen for examination, but o aing to the early hour the report was forced to be dia.- patehud the result cannot be stated. It was the determiNation of the coroner, at the con clusion of the evidence in these cases to proceed to Ingham, and there enter into another inquiry on Mrs. Pegg's children, which are directed to be exhumed, and to undergo a post mortem examination. In reference to the death of the deceased Jonathan Balls' parents, who are suspected of having been poi soned, from the circumstance of its being recollected that they were attacked in a similareo way as the children. little beyond that has been ascertained. a nd it seems the informa i nod. They have been di-ad about twenty-two 3:1 tion received by the own' 4 of such a description as much reliance upon it. to prevent their placi•ig to occupy several days.

Trade dull, at the above quo tations. COLONIAL. SUGAR.—The market for British Plantation remains with out alteration in value, but there has been more business done, some purchases having been made for shil.ment to the outports, about 640 hogsheads have been sold. The public sales have consisted of 9,286 bags 30 casks Mauritius, which found buyers, but went off very irregularly, and, in some instances, a shade cheaper for the grocery descriptions, whilst the strong grey refining qualities sold rather dearer. The quantity of British Plantation landed last week at the East and West India Docks was 2,186 hogsheads 190 tierces 339 barrels, and there were taken for home consumption 750 hogsheads 54 tierces 192 barrels. The stock in the same places is 6,631 hogsheads 558 tierces 1,113 barrels. COFFEE. —2,482 bags Ceylon ; 378 bales and 252 half bales Mocha at auction, only about half the Ceylon sold at previous prices. All the Mocha was taken in above the value. Rum.—The quantity landed last week at the East and West India Docks was 656 puns 300 hhds, there were taken for home consumption 161 puns 18 hints, and exported 321 puns 47 hhds. The stock in the same places is 10,059 puns 2,100 hhds. RICE.-3,087 bags and 500 pockets Bengal at auction, nearly all found buyers at lis to 12s 6d for mid to good white, being the previous value. SALTPETRE.- 1,415 bags Bengal only partly sold at 26s 6(1 to '27s for 3 per cent. retraction, "ii per cent. refraction was taken in at 25s 6d, which are about former rates. TALLOW.—P.Y.C. is 42s 3d to 42s Gd per cwt. on the spot, and town 43s 6d per cwt. TEA.—The market is steady with very good deliveries. INDIGO has been in but limited demand during the past month, yet the quantity delivered from the warehouses for home use exceeds that of last year to the same period, whilst for exportation there has been a falling off. COCHINEAL has been in good request, and the stock on hand is much reduced, yet prices have been steady through out the month. (From the Landon New Price Current of June 2.) SUGAR.—To-day the British Plantation Sugar market was cleared, but business will be resumed to-morrow. A fair quantity is declared for public sale. REFINED.—The home trade have purchased all descriptions of refined goods with caution since last Tuesday. Although there are sellers upon lower terms, the market is better sup plied as the refiners continue to work freely. Pieces have been sparingly dealt in, and lower rates are taken. F. , r Bas tards rather lower rates having been taken occasioned large parcels to be disposed of. For Treacle the demand is brisk, but the supply is small of all kinds; prices in consequence rule high. MAURITIUS.—There has been little business transacted by private treaty in refining or grocery descriptions, and 9,286 bags and casks at auction did not generally bring previous prices, but the whole found buyers. EAST INDlA.—Although there are sellers of all descriptions of Bengal by private treats rather under previous rates, still little business bas been transacted, and none has been brought to public sale. All Foreign East India sorts are still wanted, and the supply continuing to be small, prices still rule high. Manilla has been disposed of to a very fair extent privately. FOREIGN.—To-day several inquiries existed for nearly all descriptions of Foreign Sugar, but holders insisting upon stiffer rates, business of moment was prevented privately; and only 100 cases of brown Maceio were sold for arrival at 18s. per cwt. None was offered at public sale; but some parcels are declared. TEA.—None has again been offered public sale, but the market has assumed a dull appearance, and in some cases rather lower rates have been accepted for black, but green is held for the former currency. The value of common Congou is 9d to 9id, and good common 10d per lb, cash. Hyson of low quality is not to be had under 2s, and Twankay of low and fair yellowish leaf quality is held tor Is to is 2d per lb. MOLASSES.—AII kinds of West India have been much in demand, and advanced rates are again paid. The total quantity sold has been 600 puns Trinidad of fine quality at 255, St. Vincents 26s 6d to 275, old Grenada 21s 6d: the supply is n t ample for the demand.—Bengal Treacle has been in good request, and prices are still rising, fine bringing 21s 6d to 225. Honey of common quality is still much in demand, and fetch full rates, that is to say—the sorts from 20s to 355, but the latter kinds are not much in demand. COFFEE.—Although there are sellers of the lower descrip tions of West India by private treaty rather under previous rates, still the business transacted has been trifling, and of such there is a fair supply—the mid and superior sorts are however wanted, and in consequence of the small stock, buyers are compelled to give previous rates, None has again been offered at auction ; arrivals continue small, the stock is less than it was last year, and prices are lower, but the deliveries continue on a small scale only, That the importation will be even deficient to t hat of the former season there can be no doubt. East Innia Coffee adapted f,r home consumption being still plentiful, a further fall in the value has ensued, but export sorts being brought sparingly to market we have little variation to record in prices, but there is a want of demand. RUM, BRANDY. AND HOLIANDS.—Leeward Island Rum has been in excellent request, and in consequence of the li mited supply at market, buyers have been compelled to pay further advanced rates. A large business would have been done had the market been better supplied. Calcutta has been purchased with increased freedom, and prices are on the advance, 500 casks having been sold at Is 9d . to_ Is 10d proof with certificate—at which holders are firm. No advance has taken place in the value of Jamaica, the market having been well supplied. But the operations are upon a more extended scale in all sorts, and the quantity sold has been 250 puncheons, at former rates. The ar• rivals of Rum have been small since this day week, whereas the home and export deliveries keep good. The purchases made in all kinds of Brandy have been extremely limited by exporters and the home trade, and it is difficult to quote prices with accuracy. The demand for British Corn Spirits is dull, but prices keep at lOs 6d for English nett cash ; lOs 4d to lOs 5d for Irish and Scotch. English Gin 22 per cent under proof 8s 10d, and 17 under 9s 4d. SPlCES.—Notwithstanding the low rates at which Black Pepper is obtainable, still the demand has been limited from exporters and the home trade. The quantity declared for auction is large. The stock is less than it was last year ; prices are even lower than they were it that time, and the deliveries are going on satisfactorily. Of White several par cels have been taken, but prices cannot be quoted higher. Nutmegs ate little wanted. Mace is still wanted, but holders are unable to obtain any further advance. In Pimento little bu siness has been done, and prices are drooping. The importation however, has been much less than It wss last year, but prices are higher, whereas the stock is less. For Cassia Lignea the market has a dull appearance, and prices looking down; the quantity declared for auction is very large, amounting to nearly 8,000 chests. The inferior sorts of Ceylon Cinnamon have been in excellent request, but holders are compelled to take the low rates of is to is 6d per lb ; the better kinds are held for last quarterly sale's prices, prices, but little business, has been done. Cloves have met with little attention.. f all kinds of Ginger several parcels have been taken chieflythe by the home trade, and rather higher rates were pai s t u h p os p e ly of ia la fa te lli ) falling off, and prices rule low in comparison ' with public sale, d broken lOs 6d per T e a e n d d ay a - 121,050 taken bag i in o a c )o ß v e e n g !,sh al e6 R v,a i Rice were g broughtmd middling cwtwhite i atlghoiel d for Russian on the upon former terms. there 2s were to buyersl2s 6d, rf . t d h d e li w n T....w._Pricesare still sustains with Candle b taking only spot, but chandleir; for and their soap-makers immediate Yellow operateants, P tersburgh conse quence of the small stock they are compelled to pay 42s 3d to 42s Gd per cwt for equa. iitv ; at auction 15 casks were disposed of at these rates.
