A district Court-martial assembled on Tuesday at tin barracks, Hounslow, to try private Thomas Matthewson, of the 7th Lancers, on a charge of insubordination" and using insulting and disgustingly abusive language " to Lance-sergeant; Robert O'Donnell, his superior officer, accompanied with threats of violence. The charge was brought forward by Lieutenant Viscount St. Lawrence, as prosecutor. The 7th Lancers having left the barracks, no officer of that regiment sat upon the Court-martial, which was composed of the following members :—Lieutenant-Co lonel Smith, Royal Horse Guards, President ; Captain G. C. W. Forrester, of the Blues ; Captain Mansell, Captain Morant, Lieutenant R. IL Smith Barry, Lieu tenant Sutton, and Lieutenant 11. Sutton, of the 12th Lancers. The Court having been opened in the usual manner, and the prisoner pleaded " Not guilty," Robert O'Donnell, Lance- sergeant of the 7th hussars, was sworn. Ile deposed as follows :—I was sergeant of the guard at Hampton-court Barracks on the 20th inst. I was at the Trophy-gate about a quarter past six o'clock in the evening, when private Thomas Matthew said, " You b— break your b— head." I asked him who he meaat. lie said, " You and that other old b— (meaning Sergeant Jones) ; I'll break both your b— heads for you." By the prisoner —Did not witness first speak to me? Witness—Not when the prisoner was on sentry. By prisoner —Did he not tell me that I could not have my sentry hours changed? Witness—l told him a quarter of an hour before I posted him that he could nut hare the hours changed. Prisoner—Do you know if there is a regimental order that when a non-commissioned officer visits a sentry on duty he must be accompanied by a private of the guard ? Witness—l was not visiting the sentries; I was on duty, but was not going my rounds. The prisoner put no further questions to this witness. Matthew Routh, corporal of the 7th Hussars, sworn— Was on guard at Hampton -court on the 20th inst.; was standing near the front gate when the sergeant of the guard (O'Donnell) came in; the prisoner was on sentry at the Trophy-gate; he turned round and spoke to the sergeant, but he (witness) was not suffi ciently near to hear what took place between them. By his manner, prisoner appeared to be speaking dis respectfully to the sergeant. That was all he knew of the matter. In answer to questions by the prisoner, witness stated that on the Saturday he had not told prisoner ho could not have his sentry hours changed. On the Wed nesday he had received an order from the acting regi mental sergeant-major to take a man with him and inform private Matthewson that the commanding officer could not grant his request, and neither would lie see him. Prisoner—Did you consider Sergeant O'Donnell sober at the time? The COURT directed the prisoner to confine his ques tions to what took place at the gate ; the point he had referred to would come in his defence. The prisoner put no further questions, and the evi dence for the prosecution being closed, it was read over, and the prisoner called on f,r his defence. Private Matthewson then made the following state ment:—" Sergeant O'Donnell came to me on Saturday at Hampton-court, and told me I could neither have my sentry hours changed or be relieved. I said I was very sorry, as my brother-in-law had just arrived from the East Indies. Ile then went away, called Corporal Routh, and said something to him that I did not hear. This was the conversation which the corporal overheard." The COURT—The corporal states he did not hear the conversation. Prisoner—That was the conversation which took place between me and Sergeant O'Donnell, when Cor poral Routh was standing by. Nothing more occurred between me and the sergeant. The charge brought against me by him is unfounded and without one word of truth. I also wish to state, that the sergeant was drinking in the canteen before he went on guard, and afterwards, and that he told Private Hutchings he might post himself on my sentry, for ho would not do it. The COURT—Private Hutchings should have been produced as a witness. Prisoner—lle has left with the regiment. I do not consider the sergeant was sober at the time. When he came into the guardroom at night he laid down on the floor and was to all appearance quite drunk. I have nothing more to add; all the witnesses I could have called have gone with the regiment. The COURT—Did you apply to the commanding officer to have any of the witnesses detained? Prisoner —No, I did not; I thought the sergeant would have told the truth. The Court was cleared for a short time; on its bein g re-opened, Corporal Routh was recalled ; in answer to a question from the Court he stated, that Sergeant O'Donnell was perfectly sober when h e was ta lki ng to M atthewson. The defence was then read over to the prisoner with the above addition to the evidence, and the Court again cleared. When again opened, Lieutenant Viscount St. Lawrence produced extracts from the regimental books of the 7th Hussars, the books themselves having gone with the regiment. Ile depre , ed to their being true copies, and having stated that the prisoner bad been duly warned that any former convic tion would be used against him, proc- eded to read the minutes of the former trial and conviction of private Matthewson on the 22d of June, on two charges of inso lence to St rgcant Temple, of the 7th Hussars, while in the execution of his duty, and disrespectful and insolent conduct to his commanding olin•er, Colonel Whyte. On these charges Matthews to was sentenced to a punish ment of 100 lushes, which was carried into ( fleet. In answer to questions from the Court, Lieutenant Viscount St. La N mnce stated that the prisoner's age a as twenty-three years and six months, that he had been six months in the regiment, and that in his p-evious gent ral character and bearing he had been insolent and extremely disrespeeVul towards his sui:cri( rs. The proceedings then terminated, and the Court broke up. The sentence will not be made known till confirmed by the Cornmantlersin-Chief. e MUSICAL INTELLIGENCE. PnomF.NAD E addition to M. Jullien at Covent-gfrirden Theatrs, it is stated that Mr. Alloroft, the monster toncat sprcula!or, has taken the Lyceum, after the close of the present season, for a month's pro caoriade entertainments, for which vocalists have also been engaged. At the Adelaide Gallery, under Mr. Laurent, tn., promenade concerts are t o b e g i ven . TIM NEW MUSIC ItALL IN LIVE/WOOL—WC an nounced, some days since, under the head of " Music in Liverpool," that the Philharmonic Society had resolved to build R capable of holding upwards of 2 000 persons. The first stone was laii on the 23.1 instant, by J. B. Braneker, Esq.. When St. Georgo's Hall is completed, Liverpool will boast of two immense music rooms, one to huld 5,000 and the other 2000, whilst London is without ri single concert-room of eny dimensions. Paris Is about to have a music-hell con structed in sileh a manner that it will hold 5,000 or 500 auditors at plea , ure, by a system of contracting the space by partitions. Stith an edifice is sally wanted in the British metropolis. Hanover-square rooms, with 800 persons, is a Calcutta black-hole, and Exeter Hall, confined as it is to sectarians only, is not adapted for musical sounds. Music am PAnts.—There has been no novelty. At the Acaikasie Royale de Musique, Mtllle. Datneron has appeared in Valentine in the Huguenot.. Madame Stoltz left. Paris on Tuesday to sing at Lyons. Halvey's Moue quetaires de la Reins continued to draw the public to the Opera Cumique. Mdlle. Berthe, a new vocalist from Brest. has appeared in the l're aux Clercr. She is de scribed as being very pretty, hut having little voice. Madame Persiani had arrived in Paris, to open the Italian Opera in !Aria, on Thursday, Oct. 1. LA SCALA or MILAN.—For the next Carnival, Mo riani, Marini, De Bassini, Revere, Madame Tadolini, and lidlle. Angri have been engaged. Of these artists, Marini, a young basso, as gigantic in person and voice as Lablachu Rovers, the great buffo, and Mdlle. Angri, the contralto, are engaged for Covent-garden Theatre for the season 1847. Perrot and Fanny Elesler aro en.- gaged at the Scala. A new one-act opera, called Lu Sultana, composed by M. Maurice Bourges, has been quite successful at the Opera Comique, in Paris. MADR motstLLE PLunxErr.—At length the engage. ment of Mademoiselle Plunkett, which was to expire at the end of December, has just been renewed for a year, and from this moment she bears the title of Premiere Danscuse. Her name, therefore, will appear for the future in as large letters in the playbills as those used for Carlotta Grisi. On the Ist of December the graceful " Ballerine" departs for Turin, to dance for three months at the Carignano, a theatre of the first rank. She will still have two months rouge, between March and August, 1847. Already numerous proposals have been made to her, and London, seemingly, will have the preference.-- Fruace Musicale. As we have already announced, Madlle. Plunkett is engaged at Drury-lane Theatre. Tilt Htneeolin FESTIVAL.—The Festival passed off so satisfactorily that four out of the eight stewards have already accepted the office for 1849 ; one of the four is the Earl of Oxford, who has served before, bat who in the handsomest manner volunteered to fill it again ; the other three are Sir Velters Cornewall, Bart., Sir Thomas Hastings, and the Rev. Canon Musgrave. This liberal spirit augurs well for 1849, and as we expect that the restoration of the noble cathedral will by that time be completed, and there will bo a railroad to the city, w• look forward for brilliant success.—Hereford The Annual llop Dinner was held at the Castle Tavern, in this city, on Tuesday, and was attended by many extensive growers of hops from this neighbour hood.

COLONEL ANSLET, FORMERLY ',)F THE FUSILIER GUARDS.—This distinguished officer, whose death is announced in the paper* of the 19th instant as having taken place at Naples, was the younger brother of the late John Ansley, the well-known Lord Mayor and ex cellent London magistrate. After having completed his education, and taken the degree of Master of Arts at Oxford, Colonel Ansley obtained his first commission in the Fusilier Guards, to which he was gazetted i n M arch, 1798. To Colonel Ansleys surviving brothers in arm s , or to those who had the pleasure of his acquaintance in private life, it is unnecessary to say that he was not only the gallant officer, but that he was something more and better. Ho was a man possessing great general know ledge and information in every branch of science and of art ; but, above all, he was blessed with a most kind, and amiable disposition, and a temper which, in sick ness and in pain, bore him unruffled through all the ills of this life, nor quitted him even on the approach of death itself. DARING ROBBERIES IN LAMBRTIL—Tuesday in formation was received at the police-stations, Lambeth, of the following robberies :—On the 26th instant about fifty yards of hemp carpeting was stolen from Mr. H.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, September 29. (Before Mr. Commissioner EVANS.) IN RE BUTTERWORTH. In this case the bankrupt had carried on business as a licenced victualler, in King-street, Cheapside, and an application was now made to the Learned Commissioner in consequence of the bankrupt persisting in refusing to sign a document for the transfer of his licence. The Learned Commustorma asked whether the bank rupt was present, and was answered in the affirmative. The Learned CommisstosEit—l tell you it is only right for you to sign it, and if you do not you shall never have your certificate as long as I live, and no one else has the power to grant it. The bankrupt still refused, and asked the official as signee what he would advise. The official assignee said something might be made out of the property, and that the bankrupt would be a fool and a madman to continue to refuse. Tho bankrupt's wife, who was present, earnestly en treated him not to do it, but he ultimately signed, when she burst into tears, and said he had parted with the last he had, and she would have to starve. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS.) Patrick Read, aged 50, was indicted for stealing 131bs. of lead and a quantity of gas-fittings, the pro perty of Charles Hooker. The prisoner was employed as a plumber in a house in Marylebone-lane, and sold the property in question at a marine store shop. On its being exposed for sale the prosecutor recognised it, and the marine store dealer identified the prisoner as the man of whom he made the purchase. Several witnesses were called, all of whom gave him an excellent charac ter, having known him fur many years. He was found Guilty, and on account of his former good character sentenced to only one month's imprisonment. Martha Howard, for stealing Blbs. weight of mutton from a butcher's shop, was sentenced to six weeks' im prisonment. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. George Moorcombe was brought before the Lord Mayor and Alderman Farebrother, in the custody of John For rester, the officer, charged with having forged a letter of character in the name of Mr. Verschoyle, for the pur pose of imposing upon Sir J. W. Hogg, the chairman of the East India Company. Sir J. W. Hogg said, that on the 21st of September the prisoner applied to him at the East India House for the situation of lady's footman in his family, and stated that he had recently quitted the service of Mr. Robert Verschoyle, who would give him a good character ; that Mr. Verschoyle was at Brighton, and had desired that any letter upon the subject of character should be ad dressed to him at the post-office there. The witness wrote accordingly to the gentleman, touching the charac ter of the prisoner, and received the following answer:— " Sir,—ln answer to your inquiries respecting George Moorcombe, I beg to say he lived in my establishment as lady's footman for fifteen months ; during that period I always found him sober, honest, willing, and obliging, particularly quiet, and attentive in waiting at table, and also attends a carriage very well. George Moorcombe left me at his own request, and I can with confidence say ho is a Devonshire man. " Trusting I have satisfactorily answered all your in quiries respecting George Moorcombe, never having any fault to find with him,—l remain, Sir, yours obediently, " R. VERSCHOYLE. " Brighton, Sept 22,1846." Having suspected from the style of the epistle that Mr. Verschoyle had had nothing to do 'with the com position, witness caused inquiry to be made at the town residence of Mr. Verschoyle, who, he learned, was not at Brighton, and from whom ho received the follow "ng information : " Maidenhead, Sept. 25. " Dear Sir,—Prior to your letter of this day, I have not had any thing from you, and, therefore, the l e tt er you received is a - forgery. I have not been in Brighton this year. " A man of the name of George Moorcombe did live with me as footman for two or three months, when he was dismissed. I am very glad that your suspicions were aroused, and that you escaped having him in your establishment.—Yours, very faithfully, " ROBERT VERSCIIOYLE. " Sir J. W. Hogg." A servant in the establishment of Mr. Verschoyle proved that the note addressed to Sir J. W. Hogg from Brighton was not in his master's handwriting. Tile LORD MAYOR and Alderman FAEEnROTHER con victed the prisoner, and sentenced him to imprisonment and hard labour for three calendar months. GUILDHALL. Coqingwood, who was on Monday acquitted at the Central Criminal Court upon two charges of forgery, at the prosecution of two persons named Joseph and Abrahams, was immediately afterwards taken into custody upon a third charge, at the instance of the same prosecutors, and was this day brought before Alderman Sir William Magnay. Mr. Taylor, who appeared, as on the former occasion, for the prosecution, applied to the worthy Alderman for a delay of the examination, in consequence of the ab sence of a material witness. The case was accordingly allowed to stand over for some time; but the expe led witnesses not arriving within an hour, Sir Wm. Magnay determined to proceed. Mr. Taylor pressed hard to have the prisoner re manded until next day, but the Alderman considered it unreasonable that he should keep any man from day to day in confinement to suit the convenience of other parties, who could not but know when they ought to attend in support of their own charges. Mr. Wontner, on the part of the prisoner, submitted that this was a merely vexatious proceeding. The case now attempted to be established against the pri! oner was essentially of the same nature as the two upon which he was on Monday unhesitatingly acquitted at the Old B tiley. They arose out of charges of forgimr the name of his father, and the ground of his acquittal was expressly that he had his father's authority to use his name. half-crown and After some discussion, in the course of which Mr. Taylor strenumply insisted on his right to demand the dmention op, the prisoner, whose father (he said) pro mised to give evidence against him in this third case, the Alderman ordered the prisoner to be discharged. Immediately afterwards, however,he was placed again in the dock, and it was represented to Sir William Mag nay, that the prosecutors were prepared to take the pri• saner into custody outside the Police-court, and carry him before a county magistrate. Mr. Taylor admitted that this was the case, and en deavoured to justify this extraordinary sours'. The ALDERMAN said he believed an officer might take him into custody, at the instance of the prosecutors, but it should be on his own responsibility as an officer, car :ainly it should not be by his (Sir W. Magney's) authority. The prisoner was then discharged from custody, but instantly afterwards arrested in Guildhall-place, and oonveyed to Worship-street Police-office. BOW-STREET. Two soldiers, of the Ist battalion, 3d company Grena dier Guards, named Mac Killaghan and Easter, were charged before Mr. Henry with the following assault : Mr. Weeks, the landlord of the King's llead public • 'louse, Oxford street, stated that, at about half-past one o'clock this morning, he was walking with a friend, Mr. Bratt, in the Strand, when the prisoners, who were going in the same direction, a little betore them, stopped, and pushed against them. Witness asked what they did that for, and passed on. The prisoners followed them, abusing them, and calling them " snobs ;" and at the corner of Trafalgar-square they met a policeman, to whom Mr. Bratt appealed for protection. The police man engaged the prisoners in conversation while witness and his friend went on. As they were passing by the Horse Guards the prisoners overtook them, and Mac Killaghan swaggered against them, so as to separate them. Witness asked him what he meant? and Easter ran towards him (witness) and struck him in the face so violently as to knock him down. While be was down Mac Killaghan kicked him. A policeman came up shortly afterwards, and took the prisoners in charge. Mr. Iliorav examined the witness at great length as to his state at the time.—lle said that he was perfectly Bebe'. Mr. Brett, who said he was landlord of the Rose and Crown, Dartmouth -street, Westminster, corroborated the evidence of the complainant. 110 was quite sober. Policeman F 51 took the prisoners into custody. They were both the worse for liquor—Easter worse than the other. The complainant and his friend were sober. Sergeant Fletcher, of the first battalion, third com pany Grenadier Guards, said that tho prisoners bad been in his company for near four years. They were both very irregular, being constantly absent without leave, and had been several times punished for absence. They were absent without leave last night, and ought to have been hi barracks at ten o'clock. The prisoners said they did not meddle with the com plainant until he and his friend had both insulted them, by calling them " lobsters." They admitted that they were not sober. Mr. HENRY was convinced that a very brutal and un provoked assault had been committed on the com plainant; and ho would either dispose of the case sum marily, or commit the prisoners for trial, as the complainant wished. He could inflict no higher penalty than 5L Mr. Weeks entertained no vindictive feeling, and was not anxious to have a high penalty, or indeed any penalty at all, inflicted. Mr. HENRY said he would not commit them for trial as the complainant did not wish it, but the public must be protected from such men as the prisoners, who, bear ing a bad char a ct er i n th e company, an d being habitual drunkards, rambled about the streets at night, annoying, insulting, and assaulting quiet and respectable pas sengers. They must each pay a fine of 51., or be impri soned for twe months. CLERKENWELL. Mary Sullivan was brought up on rema n d, c h arge d with stealing two yards of cloth. Charles Nicholsorh a youth about fourteen years of ago, stated that as ho was passing along the High-street, Islington, towards the residence of his father, who kept a tailor's shop at Potter's4batt ho stoplottl to buy !owe apples from the prisoner, who keeps a fruit-stand, and when putting his hand in his 'pocket to pay.her, hk laid down a parcel he was carryint• t l / 4 1ntltining two yards of cloth) tne 0; h er baskets, and walked away without rernernberina it. Q discovering his loss ho returned, ‘ stall.s ne d enied that ho had loft anything of the kind on her Constable Walker said after her denial he went to her lodgings, and found the cloth concealed in the ticking of the bed. Thep w is a o s n c e o r, m w m h i o tted for didnot tr a i trpt to deny the facts of he case, THAMES. Mary Kirwan, a notorious thief, who has been thrice convicted of felony, and Daniel O'Leary, were brought before Mr. Ballantine; the former charged with stealing three ohillings, the moneys of Peter Curvis, a cordwainer, residing in Broadwall, Blachfriard road; and the other with feloniously aiding and abetting the said Mary Kirwan, after she had committed the felony, he well knowing she had done so. It appeared from the evidence, that on Saturday night the prosecutor was passing over Tower-hill, and upon reaching a place near where the sentinels were upon duty, he was accosted by the prisoner, who caught hold of his arm, put her arms round his waist, and asked him to give her something to drink. He told her to go away, but she kept her hands and arms about him, and he found one of her hands immediately afterwards in his l w i l e l g i waistcoat cwoearte deposited.pocke t, in w h H i ceh sawtwo t h h e al e f d - c g r e o o w i n o s n a e n o d f f t o h u e r sh- half crowns emerging from the pocket, and exclaimed " You are robbing me." She laughed and ran away. Curvis instantly missed one half-crown and three shillings from his pocket, and ran after the woman, who was soon overtaken close to the Woolpack public-house, at the Tower-hill end of the Minories. Curvis had no sooner laid hold of the woman than O'Leary ran out of the public-house, and said, " What are you doing with my wife?" Curvis replied, " She has robbed me ; she has taken away a half-crown and 35." O'Leary said that would not do for him, and after strik ing the prosecutor dragged the woman away from him, and she immediately retreated into the public-house. Curvis ran after her and got hold of her again. O'Leary pulled her from him a second time, and she got away. Curvis then gave O'Leary into the custody of a City policeman, named Flashbourn, No. 522, and said he had rescued a man who had robbed him. O'Leary said he had only protected the woman from the violence of Cur vis, who was about to strike her, and he pulled her away. The policeman fortunately knew O'Leary, and locked him up. On Sunday night the woman was apprehended by Orams, an active police-sergeant, No. 18 H, close to the spot where she had committed the robbery on the preceding night, and where she was on the look-out for other victims. It was stated that similar robberies had been of frequent occurrence on Tower-hill, and that a horde of dissipated women were constantly waylaying men on their way hom2 after sunset. A former conviction against the woman was proved. She was tried and found guilty of robbery at the Clerkenwell sessions in February, 1845, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. The prisoners were committed for trial, the woman as a principal, and her paramour as an accessory after the fact. On Tuesday Elizabeth Balder:, aged 25, who keeps a lodging-house in High-street, Wapping, was brought before Mr. Ballantine, charged with stealing four sovee reigns, one pair of small shoes, one silk handkerchief, and a towel, the moneys and property of David Smith, a porter, and also with stealing two pieces of cotton, and two wreaths of flowers, the property of Maria Wall, a servant. It appeared from the evidence that Smith, his wife and children, and the young woman Wall, has just ar rived in the Royal George from Port Philip, in which colony they had been staying five years. They landed on Monday, and were recommended to the house of prisoner. The greater portion of their property was deposited in a press in a bedroom in the house. The twe women and the children slept in one bed, and Smith reposed on a shake-down in the same room. In the course of the night Wall, who happened to be awake, saw the door open, and the prisoner enter th e bedroom with a light e d candle in her hand. She went to the press where the travellers' clothes and other things were deposited, and opened a parcel containing two pieces of printed cotton, which the pro secutrix had purchased only the day before. The pti sonar remained near the press some time, until Wall made a movement in the bed, on a hich the prisoner came to the bedside, seated herself on a chair, and re mained there some time. Wall continued watching her, and saw her put her hand underneath the pillow. The prisoner, on leaving the bedside, went towards the shake-clown, where Smith was sleeping. Wall now thought spomkiitnhg, a about bd t 0 iu h nt i t g o h trhme t e i d m r o e ho em t r o . t h a e w T ake landlady he her p r i b s oonfeedr- the f e m l lhao made some s es ll.r ov. l in,a s. es excuse for being there, and immediately quitted the apartment. i l‘lr was safe. Ile Mrs. Smith awokelher husband, and asked him f his money put his hand into the pocket of his trousers, where his gold and silver were deposited, and feeling money there believed all was right. It was then agreed nothing more should be said or done until they got up in the morning, when Smith counted over his money, an d m i sse d four sove reigns, a pair of shoes belonging to one of his children, a towel, and a silk handkerchief. The travellers also missed various other articles. The pri soner, without admitting she had stolen anything, said she would sell her press rather than have her house ex posed, and requested the parties would remain in the house till eleven, when everything would be made right. She then took Mrs. Smith and her felloe -voyager,Wall, into several rooms, under pretence of looking for the I, , st money and property. At last their patience be came exhausted, and Smith called in a police-constable, named Gifford, No. 169 11, when the prisoner again re peated that she would restore everything in the course of the day. The travellers, who were anxious to get to their respective homes in Ireland and Scotland, did not wish to give the woman into custody, but Gifford would hear of no compromise, and began to search the house, when he found several of the articles concealed. Giff..rd took her to the station-house, where she was strictly watched by Lowe, 37 H, who saw her drop a sovereign on the ground. She was about to pi c k it up, when Lowe anticipated her, on which the prisoner said, "If you are going to keep that, you may as well take the rest," and delivered to him 17s. 6d. more, which was all she had. The prisoner, notwithstanding the weight of evidence, said she was quite innocent of the robbery. Mr. BALLANTINE committed the prisoner for trial. John Campbrll, a young man, was brought before Mr. Ballautine, charged on a Custom-house information with smuggling 131 b. of foreign manufactured tobacco, by which he had incurred a penalty of 100/. James Jones, a Thames police-officer, stated that he was on the Brunswick-wharf, ta Blackwell, and saw the prisoner go ( n board the Triton, from Ostend, lying alongside the quay, where he remained for upwards of an hour and a halt. Soon after sunset he saw the pri soner come up out of the forecastle of the vessel, get over the paddle-box, the top of which was then nearly level with the wharf, and jump on shore. The prisoner was about to go to the railway terminus, and pay his fare for London, when he was stopped by witness and asked if he had any goods liable to duty about him. The prisoner dgehred he had sot, but his assertions failed to satisfy him, and witness caused him to be stripped, and found his body and legs covered with half pound papers of compressed tobacco fastened to him with twine. There was another paper of tobacco in his hat. He found upon the prisoner twenty-three parcels in all. Mr. Cornell, appraiser of condensed goods, said foreign manufactured tobacco was liable to a duty of 9s. sd. per lb. The duty upon that taken from the prisoner was 61. 2s. 101., and the value l3s. only. The prisoner had no defence to make, and Mr. BAL LANTINE sentenced him to pay lOW., and be imprisoned till it was paid. Mr. Beverly, cleric to the Solicitor of Customs, said the prisoner had often been convicted before, on which a woman in the court said, " He works very hard, gen 'lemon." Mr. BALLA.NinoI—We know he does—at smuggling, WORSHIP-STREET. THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. — A decen t-loolt in s countryman, named Benjamin Daniels, was placed at the bar Lefore Mr. Broughton, charged, in the language of the police charge-sheet, on suspicion of having absconded and stolen the sum of 341., the property of Mr. John Baxter. a master butcher residing at Norwich. Thomas Ashton, an inspector of the Eastern Counties Railway, stated that between one and two o'clock on Saturday afternoon a communication was received at the Shoreditch terminus, through the medium of the electric telegraph, from Norwich, to the effect that a man named Benjamin Daniels, whose dress and person were circum stantially described, had left that place by the e;ei en o'clock train, and directing on its arrival in town that he might be given into custody. The nature of the offence he had committed not having been specified, a telegraphic dispatch was at once transmitted back for further particulars, the answer to which was, that the accused had absconded with 341, and that the prosecutor would come up by the next train to substantiate the charge. About three hours after the above interchaF,ge of communication, which occupied only about five minutes, the train in question arrived at Shoreditch, and as the person of the prisoner, who was one of the pas sengers, corresponded exactly with the description they had received, he was given into custody. Mr. John Baxter stated that he had had frequent deal ings with the prisoner, who was also a master butcher at Norwich, and about a week since sold two bullocks to the latter for 341., which the prisoner promised to pay when they met at market on the following Saturday. The prisoner, however, failed to keep his appointment, and having ascertained that he had started by the rail way that morning for London, witness instantly hastened to the office of the electric telegraph and gave the neces sary instructions for the prisoner's apprehension. In answer to the charge the prisoner denied being ac tuated by any fraudulent intention, and expressed his readiness to satisfy the prosecutor's claim, notwithstand ing the harsh and injurious treatment to which he had been subjected. Mr. 1311°110=0N considered that the prosecutor had been very ill-advised in the course he had adopted, as the transaction amounted to a mere matter of account between the parties, which ought not for a moment to be made the subject of criminal proceedings, and he should therefore order the prisoner to be discharged. ENLARGEMENT OF THE GOODWIN SANDS.—In con sequence of the extraordinary extension of these sands in the direction of the " Bunt Head," it has been found necessary to move the light vessel half a mile further to the westward, in order to cover the shoal ; and the buoy that marks the extreme end of the Bunt Head sixty fathoms further in a south-westerly direction. A shoal has also sprung up in the Gull Stream, in the direct track of the navigation. MUSQUITOES IN ENGLAND.—Many persons have complained that the flies and gnats bite more severely than usual this year. A gentleman who has resided long in the test assures us that ho has seen several mus qttitoes both here and in London. It is not improbable that they have come over from America and the West Indies in goods and passengers' luggage, and that the unusual heat of the weather here has induced them to wander merrily abroad in search of adventures.—Liver pool Albion. ACCIDENT TO THE I'm( STEAM-uoAT.—Yesterday afternoon, as the Pink steam-boat, belonging to the Old Westminster Company, was leaving the Shades Pier, London-bridge, she came with a tremendous crash on one of the abutments. The passengers, some of whom were thrown down by the concussion, were terribly frightrned, but with the exception of her bulwarks being stove in, no other damage was sustained, and the vessel proceeded on her journey.

Fair average supplies of English Wheat have been re ceived up to our market this week ; yet the number of sam ples of that article on offer to-day was small. The attend ance of buyers was scanty, yet the demand ruled kctive, at fully, but at nothing quotable beyond, Monday's enhanced currencies. With Foreign Wheat we were fairly supplied. All kinds were in good request, and quite as dear. A few thousand quarters of bonded Wheat were sold for export. Fine Barley supported late rates ; but the middling and inferior kinds commanded very little attention. In Malt a fair average amount of business was transacted, at full prices. The show of Oats was again small, while the sale was firm, at the extreme value quoted on Monday. All other kinds of Grain, as well as Flour, were quite as dear. ARRIVALS. Wheat.

Beef, from 2s 8d to 3s 8d ; Mutton, 3s 8d to 4s 10d ; Lamb, 4s 8d to 5s 8d ; Veal, 3s 8d to 4s Sd ; and Pork, 3s 10d to 4s 10d per Blbs, by the carcase. (From the London New Price Current of September 29.) SUGAR.—To-day the quantity of home-trade Sugar brought to public sale was exClisive, and prices were not so firm. In West India a good business was transacted in bright yellow qualities, but merchants were in some cases compelled to lower their prices 6d per cwt; the rates taken exhibit a fall on those of Friday of 6d to is per cwt, and holders of such were evidently inclined to realise, owing to the increasing supplies. REFINED.—To-day Refined Sugar met with less attention from the home trade, but owing to the small supply brown lumps could not be obtained under 635, and standard lumps 655. per cwt. In Bonded Crushed Sugar a good business was transacted but at prices varying from 33s to 33s 6d for first quality. MAURITIUS.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar met with less attention, and 2,123 bags at auction were sold at rather lower prices. EtsT INDiA.—This afternoon the public sales of Bengal Sugar consisted of 3,647 bags, the superior grainy sorts went at stiff rates, but white and other kinds went 6d per cwt lower. FOREIGN.—Tbis afternoon two parcels of Manilla Sugar, amounting to 10,783 bags, were offered at auction, and nearly all sold, but at a fall in the value of 6d per cwt. 702 chests of Havannah sold at full rates. 50 cases of Bahia were taken in at 43s for ordinary brown. COFFEE.—This afternoon several purchases were made privately in native Ceylon, and it was difficult to buy good ordinary under 40s per cwt. Plantation is little wanted, 340 bags were offered at auction and nearly all taken in at 55s 6d foi fine ordinary coloury, being barely the former value, the 33 bags pea berry however sold at 65s 6d per cwt. The coloury kinds of Foreign are still wanted, but common sorts are dull of sale. TEA.—Holders of Congou are reluctant to further reduce their prices, and the trade have operated with more freedom, • still they are not inclined to take more than their present wants require: a fair business has been transacted, but ' holders have been compelled to accept 8d to Sid for common, and 9d for good common, cash. There is a fair quantity on offer, particularly of the better qua lities. Pouchong has been in good demand, and owing to the falling off in the supply prices have slightly improved. Souchong has been sold to a fair extent at previous mode rate rates. The market for Green has a dull appearance, the quantity on offer is large of all qualities and prices are lowering. At auction, Congou ou t o f condition, of which the chief part consisted, went at 8d to 9d. Imperial of good wand quality, Hyson kind, only brought 2s ld, and good brightish leaf Twankay is 2d per lb. SPICES.—The demand has improved for Nutmegs, and an advance in the value of ld to 2d per lb has taken place. In Mace more business has been transacted, and at somewhat better prices. Jamaica Ginger has not further improved in value, but at previous rates a good business has been trans acted, and 320 packages at auction were all sold. East India and African have been sold to a fair extent privately at ~,:ffer rates. Of preserved Ginger 191 pkgs, at auction, were taken ;L: at 2s 6d to 3s per lb. Of Bl ac k P epper, none has been offered at auctio.. privately f ew p urc h ases have been made by e4iorters or the trade, low as prices are. The stock is much tilt same as what it Zas last year, but the deliveries Ice. are still less, etFreelally for e x i:firtation, and prices are lower; although white can be obtabal at 3 1 / 2 d to 5%d for low to fine quality, s till f ew buyers. a ;',9 to be met with, but the quantity offering is tot so la,,e as it was. Pimento has fully sustained the previcrus value, and several parcels have been sold privately. Cloves have met I A with little attention, but holders are reluctant. For Cassia Lignea the Market has a firm appearance. Cinnamon is wanted, and the parcels sold were at quotations, 2d to 4d above those of the last quarterly sales; for inferior, coarse, and jungle kinds, prices are improving. The supply of all sorts is less than it was. Woon.—The public sales of Colonial hire at length ter minated, The attendance has been numerous, and the de- Imand animated for all descriptions. Although the quantity offered was prodigious, still nearly the whole sold, the mann ' facturers having come to the determination to get well stocked, in consequence of the moderate rates that existed, and the enormous quantity of Wool there is being consumed. Prices improved towards the conclusion of the sales, and closed at an Rdvance on those of the last unctions of ld per lb. ` et ' SPIRITS.—To-day Leeward Island Rum met with little _ attention, although there are sellers at 2s 2d proof strength. For Jamaica the market has a dull appearance, and the i [ tendency of prices is still downwards. East India s little wanted, and 1l casks at auction were taken in at 2s Bbd to t2s 4d per gallon f or M a d ras . Th e s t oc k o f R um diff ers little N from that of last year. q,,,, lisnico.—Holders of East India are firm, and i ns i s t u pon :/i an advance on the rates of the l as t quar t er l y sa l es o f 3(1 to 1 '/: 4d per lb, although the quantity declared for the 6th of 6 '. October is large, amounting to 21,268 chests. There has, 1 4a. however, been only a limited business transacted by ex ,s, porters and the home trade since this day week. For Spanish 6 $ the market has a firm appearance, se COCHINEAL,.—To-day the market was well supplied ; the I% quantity offered at public sale amounting to 286 bags ; ! i 4 nearly the whole sold. 2 Otis.—For Seal Oil there has been a brisk demand, and IA the tendency of prices is upwards, pale bringing 291. to 291 10s, yellow 261 to 271 2 and brown al to 25110 s ; indeed some parties will not sell upon these terms, and the quan tity on offer is .yet small. At auction 38 tuns were sold, tinged pale, at 281. to 281 10s, and yellow at 271 per tun. The home trade conti nue t o b e t h e principal operators. Low qualities wanted for exportation, but of such few parcels are to be had . Cod h as met w i th a dull sale, and the quantity on offer is larger than it was.

PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—Tho Hastings, 72, ad vanced ship, was unducked again yesterday, and to-day the was again replaced at her moorings. The Fairy was taken into the dock from which she was removed. The Royal yacht Victoria and Albert was removed to her proper moorings from off Weevil Creek yesterday, from which we may infer that her Majesty's aquatic ex cursions for this season are concluded. The Retribution steam-frigate, Captain S. Lushington, arrived yesterday from the squadron. She has come home in consequence of some defect in the fitting of her engines, by which she is constantly, when her fires are lighted, in danger of catching fire. A survey has been ordered by the Board of Admiralty, which is now taking place by Rear-Admiral Parker, C. 8., and Captains Pasco and Chads, who went out to her in the Myrtle steamer for that purpose. So imminent does the danger appear to be, that the floors, and every part near the en gines, are obliged to be kept flooded with water while the ship is under steam. The flooring and engine-room have sunk two inches since this defect was discovered. The Comet steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Johnston, left Cork on the 19th inst., and proceeded for Tralee, but was obliged, in consequence of heavy seas and foggy weather, and having no pilot on board, to put into Bearhaven, where she obtained a branch pilot, and the weather having moderated, she left for the Shannon on the 23d, and after a propitious run arrived in that river on the 24th, and on passing up observed a steam vessel at anchor at Kilrush. She arrived at Limerick on the 24th, and after landing 20 boxes of money, each containing 5001. sterling in small coin, completed coals and proceeded to Tralee, thence to alway, Westport, and Sligo. The Alban steam transport, Master-Commander Burney, and the Pluto steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Com mander Lowe, were at Limerick on the 24th inst. ; and the Dee steam transport, Master. Commander Driver, was weather-bound about 20 miles from Limerick. Tho Ringdove, 16, Commander Sir William Hoste, arrivol at the mouth of the Borneo River on the 28th of July, and was to sail immediately to join the Admiral at Hong-Kong. By a private letter from the Actaeon, 26, to the 10th of August, we are informed that Captain Mansel is com ing home invalided. THE RECENT IliaLsToßm.—Tuesday, an auction and basaar for the sale of plants and flowers, in aid of the funds for the relief of the sufferers by the recent hailstorm, was held at the Hall of Commerce, Thread needle-street. The sale proceeded very languidly. Mr. Gesner, of Prince Edward's Island, has made a discovery of some interest. During a geological exa mination of the colony, he obtained from the Indians two kinds of farinaceous roots " as promising in their appearance as were the indigenous potatoes of Virginia, carried to Ireland by Sir Walter Raleigh, from which the common kind was derived." These roots are called by the Indians respectively " mus-qua-sete," and " san gaa.ban." Mr. Gesner says of the former—" As an ar ticle of food it is excellent, and as such is highly esteemed by the Indians, who generally remove every root as soon as the habitat of the plant is discovered. It contains much nutritive matter, is wholesome, and, I have no doubt, if properly cultivated, it will prove to be prolific." The other root is less liked by the Indians, but Mr. Gesner says, " I have eaten some of the roots, and found them dry, meally, and palatable." CAST-IRON GATES FOR CANALS AND LOCKS.— , At the last meeting of the Industrial Society of Mul hausen, M. Louis Audran, in the name of the Mechani cal Committee, presented a report on the new cast-iron lock-gates recently fixed at the lock No. 39, on the canal joining the rivers Rhone and Rhine, executed under the direction, and from the plans of M. Detzem, the engi neer of the canal, residing at Mulhausen. They are proved to be far superior to wood, or any other descrip tion of lock gates hitherto introduced in France and England, as very slight repairs are required ; and, when means have been discovered to prevent oxidation, which there is little doubt will soon be obtained, as many me thods have been proposed by scientific men in England and on the Continent, they will become universally used. These gates are very durable, and are being ge nerally adopted on the canal of the Rhone and Rhine, being less expensive than any others.—Mining Journal. An inquest was held at the Lord Hill, Wharf-end -road, Paddington, by Mr. Mills, deputy coroner, on the body of William Loder, aged 54, carpenter, of Nightingale street, Lisson-grove, found drowned in the Grand Junc tion Canal, Paddington. It is supposed the deceased fell in while in a state of intoxication, and as he was passing under White's-bridge, which was described by witnesses as a dangerous place for even a sober man. The jury L returned a verdict of "Found drowned in the Grand Junction Canal, near White's-bridge." And attached to their verdict, "That the place is exceedingly .clangt r ; ous, and it would be advisable for the Canal Campany l to devise such precautionary means as would prevent accidents there in future.

These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects •t very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters overyllying croa tura able to understand ought to know, but which information In these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated thr•ugk questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths • nature, ei human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is net contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we sheuld know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issee thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our awn keeping, and happinees within the attainment of all ; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to eursclves, we secure the iRe advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation of our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body nay be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations.
