A GENTLEMAN CHARGED WITH ASSAULTING A CON STABLE.—Mr. Thomas Worsick, gentleman, staying at Evans's Hotel, Covent-garden, was charged before Mr. Knox, with being drunk and behaving in a disorderly manner, and also assaulting police-constable Yeo, 316 A. Yeo said that on the previous night he saw the defendant, who was drunk, in the Haymarket in company with two or three females. The defendant was making a great noise, and he requested him to go away. The defendant went a short distance and tried, but unsuccessfully, to get admitted to a night-house, and then returned to the women. On his again telling him that he must leave the place he re fused to do so, said he had been boxing for four years, and did not care a for him, at the same time aiming a blow at his head with a stick, but his helmet prevented his head being injured. The defendant (smiling) said he was "screwed," having been out dining, and taken too much wine. Mr. Knox said a person like the defendant ought not to appear in a police court, and fined him 20s. or seven days mprisonment. ROBBING A LICENSED VICTUALLER.—BASE INGRATITUDE. —John Crosby, an elderly man, was charged before Mr. Knox with stealing a £5 note, the property of Mr. George Keppin, of the White Lion Tavern, St. Alban's-place. Mr. Keppin—l attend to prosecute the prisoner for rob bing me under very aggravating circumstances. Some time ago the prisoner was knocking about getting a very pre carious living by holding horses, &c. I gave him a job to clean some pots, being without a potboy, and a person in my employ suggesting that I should take the poor old fellow into my employ instead of having another boy, I did so, giving him ss. a week, board and lodging and clothes. I went to the annual trade dinner in May, and while I was gone the prisoner had a £5 note given to him to get changed by a person I left in charge of my business, and he never re turned with the note or the change. In addition to this he obtained a hygrometer from a friend, stating that he had been sent by me for it, which was not the case. Mr. Wm. Wykes, of No. 5, Blakesley Cottages, Cam berwell—On the 17th May, Mr. Keppin entrusted me with the care of his house, and I gave the prisoner a £5 note belonging to Mr. Keppin, to get changed for the use of the house. The prisoner never returned. The prisoner, who put no questions to the witnesses, and made no answer to the charge, was remanded. THAMES. HORMBLE BRUTALITY.—Bridget Nicholls, aged 25, and tarrying an infant 18 months' old in her arms, was brought before Mr. Partridge charged with violently assaulting Ann Shea, of 18, White Hart-place, Poplar. The complainant, who was in acute pain, and who lives in an Irish colony, sometimes called Garden-place and sometimes White Hart-place, stated that she had a quarrel with her countrywoman Nichollslast night. The prisoner abused her, and called her very foul names. She went out to get out of the way, and on her return with a bundle of wood, the prisoner abused her again, and after striking her with her fist, threw her down, seized her left arm and bit a large piece out of it. The poor woman's arm was enveloped in surgical bandages, and after giving her evi dence she threw herself on the floor of the court, groaning fearfully. Catherine Coghlan, another Irishwoman, said—l saw Biddy Nicholls pull her hair out of her head and take a mouthful out of her arm, and make a second bite, and would have taken a second mouthful if it had not been for me dragging her away. . . _ • _ John Bradley stated that he found the complainant in a frightful state of suffering, with the flesh torn from her arm, and the muscles moving. The prisoner was very desperate. It occupied the united strength of three con stables to carry her to the station house. The prisoner said I will murder the old— when I get at her again. In answer to questions by Mr. Partridge, the witness said—l did look for the piece of flesh. It was seen in the room. The prisoner was seen to pick it up, and it is be lieved she swallowed it. The prisoner burst out into a long, loud, and fie►y decla mation in her defence, and imputing to the complainant that she was intoxicated and committed the first assault. She had many witnesses, but Nicholls and Coghlan were such desperate characters that the witnesses wore afraid to attend the court. Mr. Partridge said this was a most horrible and dis gusting case. The prisoner was a perfect savage and bad committed an atrocious assault on the complainant. The only provocation he could discover was, that the com plainant refused to drink with the prisoner and give her gin. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned for four months, and kept to hard labour, and he ordered that her child bo taken from her and delivered to its father. WESTMINSTER. DARING ROBBERY IN A HANSOM CAB.--Jas. Talfer, a young man, was charged with stealing a gold ring from the person of Mr. Brampton, 155, Cambridge-street, Pimlico, clerk in a merchant's office, under very daring c i r _ cum stances. The prosecutor stated that, on Sunday afternoon he and his wife went to spend the evening at a friend's house in Chelsea. They returned home between 10 and 11 o'clock, and engaged a cab near Cheyne-walk. While they were going along in the cab the prisoner suddenly placed his hand in front of his wife, who was asleep and who was much alarmed. He gave prosecutor a violent blow on his cheek and again jumped off the cab, and ran away. Pro secutor fond that he had lost his scarf from the finding ho had lost his pin, and seeing the prisoner running on the pavement, got out of the cab and found the prisoner call out Stop thief 1" Prisoner was overtaken and given into custody. Prosecutor—No, sir. I was much hurt by the prigoner when he struck me in his attempt to take my ring from me. I am told it is a common practice for thieves to make a similar attack on persons who are going along in cabs. The wife of the prosecutor said that he was asleep at the time of the assault, and was therefore not able to recognise the prisoner. Prosecutor observed that he never lost sight of him from the time he jumped off the cab till ho was taken. A constable stated that the prisoner was the associate of thieves. The prisoner was remanded. MARKETS—This Day. HAY MARKETS.

The last share issued up to Midsummer, 1865, is No. 22,355. The sale of the Sunnyside estate, Sandown, Isle of Wight, which was allotted on the 6th of April, and the allotment of the Roehampton and Tottenham (Seven Sis ters) estates on the same day, have been quite successful. There now remain but few plots on the Sandown and Tottenham properties to be disposed of. The Wood Green estate (No. 2) is also progressing satisfactorily. Tenders for the roads and drainage on the Sandown and Wood Green estates have been accepted, and the works will be completed as soon as possible. The new road on the Roehampton estate will be ready in the autumn, by which time it is expected that the remaining works on the Bat tersea will bo finished. The e l of the materials on the late Gov ernmen t naval yard removal estate, No. 2 (Plough-lane), at Deal having been sufficiently advanced, the committee have commenced the allotment of the land by offering a portion in 96 building plots, with frontages to the sea (the Prince of Wales's-terrace) and to the Walmer-road, and with frontages also to the projected streets to be called Sondes, Stanley, and Clanwilliam Roads. In laying out this first portion of the estates, special attention has been paid to secure a good sea view in the cross streets. The Preliminary allotment began at Deal on Wednesday, June 7, after a public meeting in the Town Hall, at which Viscount Ranelagh, the chairman, Col. Brownlow Knox, M.P., and Col. A. Meyrick, were present as a deputation from the board, to explain the society's system of selling land. The executive committee have entered into a satis factory arrangement with the town commissioners of Deal, whereby a complete system of drainage will be secured, and the town itself, when the entire works of the town are completed, will be materially improved by fine openings to the sea, and by the extension of the approaches to the main streets of the town. Of the development of Deal no doubt can bo entertained. A more splendid esplanade frontage, commanding, as it does, a view of the shipping in the Downs and of the French coasts, is not to be found, independently of Deal being one of the most salubrious of sea-side localities. The formation of new docks, the recent opening of that magnificent work—the iron pier—the rail way to be constructed between Dover and Deal, and the proposal for a more direct railway communication with the metropolis, are all undertakings indicative of the future progress of Deal, and the Conservative Land Society has supplied the great want of the town—that of freehold building land in plots for the erection of villas and houses, as also hotels and boarding and lodging houses, the limited number of which has hitherto prevented that amount of accommodation that the yearly increasing popularity of the place required. In the Lady-day report, the executive committee refereed to two properties in Cheshire and Cornwall which had been secured for the society, and they have now the pleasure to announce to the shareholders that the allotment thereof will be prpceeded with as early as possible. The land in Cheshire is at the new ferry just °paned, opposite to Liverpool, and close to the projected tuntzel under the Mersey, with a frontage in the Chester-roa 4 , and very near the Bebbington station on the Birlceacatci and Chester Railway. To those familiar with Liverpool, it is scarcely necessary to add that a large proportion of the inhabitants migrate after business hours to the suburbs to their private residences, and that the Cheshire side of the Mersey is particularly sought after by all classes of the community for villas and houses. The estate in Cornwall is placed at the thriving town of St. Austell, close to the port of Charleston, St. Anstell Bay, which may be deemed the Isle of Wight of the Cornish coast. A fourth acquisition of land has been made at Putney, near the Cedars-terrace, one of the earliest purchases for the society. The present property is close to Wandsworth lane, with frontages to the Upper Richmond-road, leading to the Putney station. The vicinity of the estate to Wimbledom- common, Putney-heath, Roehampton, and Richmond4Ark, will render the plots valuable for building, and no time will be lost in preparing for the allotment. The executive committee have fixed Wednesday, the 19th of July next, for the final allotment of the'Woodhouse estate, Wanstead, owing to the recent demand for the por tion originally offered, of which but few plots now remain on hand. The executive committee have, in conclusion, to congra tulate the shareholders that the general sale of land and the financial returns have been so satisfactory. SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. TIMES.—The debate of last night will be memo rable in Parliamentary history. Not often has it fallen to the lot of the House of Commons to sit in judgment on the conduct and character of one so highly placed, and to deliver a decision carrying with it such momentous consequences. The charges against Lord Melville at the begiuing of this century, and those relating to the administration of the army by the Duke of York, are the only similar inquiries in which the Legislature of this country has• been engaged during the memory of living men. No wonder, then, that the last hours of an expiring Parliament should be filled with a kind of spasmodic vitality. The candle has for a moment flared up in the socket before it is extinguished. The excite ment of yesterday was as great as if the fate of the Government or the Parliament depended on the issue of the debate, as if resignation or dissolution was the alternative that must follow the vote of the house. Members, recalled from the country or de tained in town by the urgent remonstrances of their party, attended the house last night to witness or take part in one of the most important debates of the Parliament. On whichever side they might be, whatever vote their conscience or their party ties might induce them to give, there could, we presume, be only one feeling in their minds—that of regret that they should be called upon to decide in such a cause. The discredit of a Lord Chancellor is a reproach to the nation at large. The office repre sents, to the popular intelligence, all that is most elevated in dignity and power. The First Officer of State, the President of the House of Lords, the Keeper of the Queen's Conscience, the head of the judicial system of the country, the nominator of Judges, great and small, the largest dispenser of Church patronage, is a man raised so incomparably above his fello s-s that no failing of his can be un important, and to prove him a delinquent is to brand the country through one of its most con spicuous representatives. The result of the debate is that a grave vote of censure has been passed on the Lord Chancellor. The amendment of Mr. Bou verie, which, except on one point, hardly differed from that of Mr. Hunt, was carried without a divi sion, and the most exalted person in the Govern ment is reproved by a vote originating with one of its own supporters. The debate which preceded this grave decision was not in any way remarkable. The Lord Chancellor was feebly attacked, and very weakly defended. Mr. Hunt's speech was by n'o means impressive. He is entitled to the credit of comparative fairness, for though he showed no inclination to spare the Chancellor, he did not in dulge in the vituperation which marred the effect of Mr. Longfield's harangue the other night. But, on the .other hand, he failed to give his hearers an adequate impression of the case. Fortunately for those members who sought only to pronounce an impartial judg ment the materials were abundant in the report of the evidence which had been placed in their hands. Even the copious quotations of Mr. Hunt do not give a fair notion of this extraordinary volume, which may be perused with interest in future times as a disclosure of official life in England in 1865. But it would be difficult for the most unskilful ad vocate to fail of success with so overpowering a case. The history of the events in which the Lord Chan cellor is the central figure, while Messrs. Bethell and Welch and Harding and Wilde and Miller stand conspicuous in their several ways, came out again last night with undiminished freshness. We see Mr. Welch and Mr. Bethell as old acquaintances, and their friendship thickening as the former sees a chance of obtaining a place in his country's service. We find Mr. Bothell pressing his friend's claims on the Chancellor, and it becomes the clearer the more we consider it that Mr. Welch was chosen_ out of the long list of applicants because he was-the friend of the son of him who disposed of the place, and for no other cause. Then we follow Mr. Welch during the autumn of last year and the early spring of the present, continuing his loans or gifts to Mr. Bethell, and the result is an impression that each benevolence was timed with regard to the probability of obtaining this or that appointrrent. But why should we follow out the miserable history? Mr. Wilde and his certifi cate, on which the gentleman who obtained it made jocular remarks, the officiousness of Mr. Miller and his virtuous rebukes to the Chancellor for too great severity towards a prodigal son, the intrigues of the whole party to get Mr. R. Bethell back again into the public service, disclose a state of things that we should hardly have believed to exist in the lowest walks of official life. It has been the misfortune of the Chancellor to be surrounded personally and offi cially by a set of people who are among the least favourable specimens of English society the public has for many years had the opportunity of contem plating. It is strange that Lord Wesbury, with that zeal for the public service which he assumed, did not think it necessary to look more closely into the mo tives of these people. It is the defence made for him by his friends—but the only defence which, after much consideration, they have thought tenable— that he was imposed upon by his relatives and subor dinates. This is, no doubt, true, but that such an imposition could obtain credence argues a want of energy and public spirit which is of itself culpable in a public man. This is the view taken by the House of Commons. In a house extremely large, considering that it was within three days of a dis solution, the Government was beaten on the motion for an adjournment, and was obliged to accept Mr. Bouverie's resolution. That of the Lord Advocate was very properly rejected. That learned person would have had the house abstain from censuring Lord Westbury by name, but pass a re- solution which would be a stigma not only on this particular Chancellor, but on the office itself. By making the grant of a pension by a Lord Chancel lor incomplete without the confirmation of the Trea sury the house would have affirmed that, as a rule, the men who rise to the highest lay dignity in the country are unfit to perform the duties which have been for generations intrusted to them. Surely, if a man is not competent to pension a registrar he is not competent to make judges and to appoint cler gymen to livings ? The abuse of minor patronage was serious in the case of Lord IN estbury chiefly because it threw doubt on th e way in which the more important trusts would be .admunstered, and to take away the small opportunities for misconduct and leave the greater was a proposal as little con sistent with good sense as can well be conceived. Mr. Bouverie's resolution was much more in accord ance with the feelings of the house. It is notorious that the Liberal members displayed no alacrity for this debate. The prospect of going to the hustings as the defenders or apologists of such transactions as have been revealed within the last few days had no attractions for the supporters of the Government. It is, indeed, rather surprising that so large a num ber should have been found at their posts at all. At any rate, when Mr. Bouverie proposed his amend ment, which, while acquitting the Chancellor• of any knowledge of the corrupt practices connected with Mr. Welch's appointment, adopt the language of Mr. Hunt's resolution with respect to pensioning of Messrs Edmunds and Wilde, it was of no avail for the Government to attempt to change the current of feeling. Mr. Bouverie's amendment was put as a substantive resolution, and carried without a divi sion. Whoever may have considered that we have been unduly severe on the Lord Chancellor will do well to consider the terms of the resolution which has thus been adopted by a full House, and say if it does not justify any strictures that we may have made. No task could be more distasteful to any person of ordinary feeling than that of pointing out the demerits of a man of the highest ability and who had rendered great public services, to which we have been always prompt to render justice, •but the circumstances of this case left us no alternative. 5.P013 TING INTELLIGENCE—This Day, :.- - BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH NEWMARKET RACES-9 :ins DAY.

The disaster commenced in one of the rooms in the upper floor of the mansion, and threatened to be of very serious consequences. For tunately the assistance of the fire brigade was soon at hand, and, with a plentiful supply of water, the firo was extinguished, but not before very extensive damage was done to the roof of the building. The Duke of Sutherland, whose mansion is in close proximity to that of his Royal Highness, was soon on the spot, and rendered essential assistance in subduing the fire. The effects of the fire are plainly visible on the mansion in St. James's Park, the roof showing unmistakably the serious character of the fire, which, had it occurred during the night, most probably would have resulted in the total destruction of the building. However, all alarm seemed to have subsided by 6 o'clock, as at that hour her Royal Highness the Prin cess and her infant son drove out for an evening airing in the park. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF LORDS—Tins EVENING. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at the usual hour. THE CASE OF MR. WINSLOW. Lord CHELMSFORD said he felt bound to make a statement of a persoual character, in consequence of what had appeared in the public prints in reference to Mr. Winslow and himself. The noble and learned lord then referred to the details which had appeared in the papers. He had heard complaints against that gentleman to the effect that he had absented himself from duties, which, upon inquiry, he found to bo correct. Mr. Winslow subse quently applied to him for a recommendation for a retiring pension, which, under the circumstances, he felt bound to rofuso. RESIGNATION OF THE LORD CHANCELLOR. Earl GRANVILLE said that it became his duty to inform the house that the noble and learned lord who had presided over their discussions for some time had felt himself called on to resign the distinguished position he had occupied. In consequence of what had taken place in reference to the noble and learned lord, the latter had felt it his duty to tender the resignation of his. office to Lord Palmerston, but the noble Lord (Palmerston) did not feel himself justi fied in accepting that resignation. However, under exist ing circumstances, and in compliance with the wishes of the noble and learned lord, Lord Palmerston had accepted the resignation of the Lord Chancellor. PENALTIES LAW AMENDMENT BILL. Lord DENMAN, on the order for the third reading of this bill, moved as an amendment that it should be read a third time that day three months. The house then divided. For the third reading Against —8 Majority The bill was accordingly read a third time and passed. IMPRISONMENT OF BRITISH SUBJECTS IN FOURTH EDITION PARLIAMENTARY DIVISION. HOUSE OF COMMONS—Jm 3. LEEDS BANKRUPTCY COURT, &c. Motion made and question proposed, " That the evidence taken before the committee of this house, on the Leeds Bankruptcy Court, discloses that great facility exists for obtaining public appointments by corrupt means ; and that such evidence, and also that taken before the committee of the House of Lords in the case of Leonard Edmunds, and laid before this house, shows a laxity of practice and want of caution, on the part of the Lord Chancellor, in sanc tioning the granting of retiring pensions to public officers over whose heads grave charges are impending, and in filling up the vacancies made by the retirement of such officers, whereby great encouragement had been given to corrupt practices ; and that such laxity and want of cau tion, even in the absence of any improper motive, aro, in the opinion of this house, highly reprehensible, and calcu lated to throw discredit on the adininistration of the high offices of state. Amendment proposed, to leave out from the first word " That" to the end of the question, in order to add the words " This house, having considered the re port of the select committee on the Leeds Bankruptcy Court, and the evidence taken by it, agrees with the com mittee in the opinion that the facts which are established acquit the Lord Chancellor from all charge in the matters to which it refers, except that of haste and want of cau tion in granting a pension to Mr. Wilde, but this house is of opinion that some further check should be placed by law upon the grant of pensions to the holders of legal offices," instead thereof. Question, "That the words pro posed to be left out stand part of the question," put, and negatived. Question proposed, " That those words be there added." Debate arising, motion made and question put, " That the debate be now adjourned." The house divided—Ayes, 163 ; Noes, 177. AYES—!63. Acland, T. D. Foster, W. 0. fade, Col. Andover, Lord Fortescue F.

The Secretary (Mr. Gruneisen) having read the advertisement convening the meeting, Viscount Ranelagh, the chairman, peesented the following report of the executive committee ; The executive committee of the Conservative Land Society, in submitting their 51st report to the members for the three first quarters of the financial year which will end on Sept. 30 next, have much pleasure in appending the following returns : The decision of the House of Commons will, we feel sure, have a good effect on official morality. It is natural that men in high office, knowing the igno rance and carelessness of the world in general with respect to their proceedings, should fancy that there is no chance of jobs and intrigues coming to light. They may be to a great extent in the right, but the tone of the House last night will show them that if once they are detected they have but little to hope from the forbearance of Parliament. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, 7 o'CLoci:. ABYSSINIA. Lord CHELMSFORD called the attention of the house to the papers relating to the imprisonment of British sub jects in Abyssinia, presented by command of her Majesty. The noble and learned lord contended that the honour and dignity of this country were not vindicated by the course which the Foreign-office had pursued is reference to the British subjects imprisoned in Abyssinia. Earl RUSSELL defended the conduct of the Govern ment, and said that very strict instxuetions had been given to Consul Cameron. (LEFT SITTING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS—THIS EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The amendments to the following bills were considered and agreed to :—Chichester and Midhurst Railway ; Mon Valley Railway •, Bedford and Northampton Railway ; Blane Valley Railway . ; Drayton Junction Railway ; van and Portpatrick Junction Railway; Midland Railway (Mansfeld, &c., Lines) ; Newpor t and Usk Railway ; Northampton and Banbury Junction Railway (Deviation, &c.); Northampton and Banbury Junction Railway (Ex tensions) ; North-Eastern and Cleveland Railways ; soty pool, Caerloon, and Newpor t Railway ; Regent' Canal (Limehouse Basin); Severn Junction Railway ; Southam Railway ; South Wales and Great Western Direct Rail way ; and West Hartlepool Harbour and Railway and Cleveland and North Eastern Railways. ITALIAN BRIGANDS. Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, without imprudence, he was able to give the house any further account of the proba bility of obtaining the liberation of the English gentleman who had fallen into the hands of the Italian brigands ? Mr. LAYARD said they had information from the gen tleman up to the 29th of last month, but he could not give any further information at that moment. NORTH AND SOUTH SHIELDS. Sir M. RIDLEY, in the absence of Earl Percy, asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether the Treasury would lay upon the table of the house the correspondence between the Board of Customs in London and the reports of the collector of the Tyne relating to the severance of the ports of North and South Shields. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said there would be no objection to lay the correspondence on the table. RESIGNATION OF THE LORD CHANCELLOR. Lord PALMERSTON said ho deemed it right to inform the house that the Lord Chancellor, deferring to the vote of last night, had deemed it his duty to tender his resigna tion of the high office of Lord Chancellor, and he (Lord Palmerston) had accordingly placed that resigna tion in the hands of her Majesty. He also felt it his duty to inform honourable members that in the early part of the year the Lord Chancellor, stung by the attacks that had been made upon him from various quar ters, had pressed upon him to accept his resignation, but he (Lord Palmerston) had declined to accept it, on public and private grounds ; at the same time he urged upon his lordship the advisability of remaining at his post, because his retiring from office at that time would have implied that he submitted to the charges that had been made against him. He felt sure that some of those charges would form the ground of Parliamentary inquiry, and knowing the motives of the noble and learned lord to be perfectly pure and incorrupt, he had advised him to retain his office until the result of such an inquiry became known. The noble and learned lord, in order to complete the necessary for malities of the prorogation, would hold the Great Seal until Friday morning, and later in the day he would resign his office. RAILWAY TRAVELLING. Sir L. PALK called the attention of the President of the Board of Trade to the verdict of the jury at the inquest on the bodies of Thomas Sweter, Geore Kent, and William Anderton ; and moved for papers relating thereto. The hon. bart. said the proceedings to which he referred showed most unmistakably the necessity of energetic steps being taken by the Board of Trade to compel railway companies to effect some arrangement by which communication between the passengers and guard could be effected. The late accidents had shown the signals at present in use were not the best that could be devised, and therefore he hoped the right hon. gentleman who presided at the Board of Trade would bring his SUN OFFICE, HALF-PAST 7 o'CLocK.

Mr. D. GRIFFITH thought the subject a very impor tant one, and well worthy the utmost cousidcration of the Government. Mr. M.
