COURT OP BANKRUPTCY. cßefore Mr. Registrar Pepys.) IN RE THE HON. RICHARD BETHELL. This bankrupt, the eldest son of the late Lord Chancel lor, was described as a barrister-at-law, and was for some time the chief registrar of the London Court of Bankruptcy. To-day was appointed for proof of debts. Mr. Chidley is the solicitor to the bankrupt, who, it may be remembered, was recently discharged from custody, under an applica tion made to Mr. Commissioner Goulburn. No accounts have yet been filed, as this petition has been filed by a creditor, but the debts are alleged to be over £20,000. The rule in this court is that nhen a bankrupt files his own petition he is compelled to put in the proceedings a three days' statement of his affairs, but when a creditor inter feres such an account is not necessary. In the present in stance a number of debts were proved, but the full assets will not be filed until the (lay appointed for the examina tion and order of discharge. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day, -.- MARLBOROUGH-STREET. LAW INT. IGENCE. A GENTLEMAN OUARGED A SECOND TIME WITII ASSAULT• ING THE POLICE.—Mr. Wai. Anderton, of 81, Maddox street, gentleman, was charged before Mr. Knox, with assaulting George Wilson, 156 C. The constable was this morning running to ascertain the case of a female screaming in Regent-street, when the de fendant closed against him and stopped him, and in doing so the constable received a blow on the arm and the chest from the defendant's umbrella. The constable then went to take the defendant into custody, when the defendant gave him a blow in the face with his fist. The defendant was then taken to the police-station. In reply to Mr. Knox, the constable said he had not given the slightest provocation, and that the defendant had been drinking. The defendant said he was walking quick by, and the constable came in collision wiih his elbow. If he had hurt the constable he was sorry. The constable said the defendant's conduct was inten tional. Mr. Knox said it was asking Min to believe a good deal, when the defendant asked him to believe the constable ran against him. Tho defendant was, he said, fined £5 or a month a few days ago for assaulting_a constable, and he feared that circumstance was operating on the de fendant's mind. He should not go to the extent of fining the defendant £5, but he must pay £3 or . 14 days, and he would advise the defendant to leave the police alone. WESTMINSTER. DETERMINED ATTEMPT TO COMMIT SUICIDE.—EIIen Beggley, a creditable looking married woman, about 28 years of age, was charged with the following attempt at suicide. At about a quarter-past 4on Thursday morning Sergeant Purches, 10 B, was proceeding through Jew's-row, Chel sea, where, in consequence of a conversation he heard, he went to No. 4, Wood's-buildings, and, having insisted upon entering the house, proceeded to an upstairs apartment, where he found the prisoner lying upon a bed about to fall into a sleep from which, but for the care and attention of Sergeant Purches, she might never have awoke. Having been informed by her sister that she had taken no less than I six pennyworths of laudanum, he immediately had her thoroughly aroused and walked to the station, while he sent for the divisional surgeon. In the interim the sergeant gave her a large quantity of niustard an I water, which, with her being kept in motion in the police yard, acted as a strong emetic: After this she was conveyed to S. George's Hospital, where she has remained until this morning, when she was considered well enough to be brought before the magistrate. In the prisoner's room, a phial, which had contained laudanum, was found con cealed in the fireplace. Mr. Selfe having inquired the cause of prisoner's attempt to commit suicide, Sergeant Purches replied that she had stated her hus band deserted her and her child six years ago, and coming home last Wednesday stripped her of all her money, which had such an effect upon her mind that she went to different chemists shops, and purchased the laudanum. Mr. Selfe said that he should remand the prisoner for a week. NEWMARKET JULY MEETING.-FRIDAY. Another heavy thunderstorm passed over Newmarket during Thursday night, the rain falling in a perfect deluge, and the flashes of lightning occurred with a rapid ant vivid intensity,followed by loud and prolonged peals of thunder. This had the effect of clearing the atmosphere of a blight which was particularly unpleasant on Thursday afternoon • The clouds looked very threatening ; and some heavy showers occurred during the day. Owing to the nature of the soil, and the herbage on the heath, the course was not particularly heavy, and the warmth of the sun soon ren dered it perfect " going." The meeting has been chiefly remarkable for the almost total absence of speculation on future events, and the morning was occupied as heretofore in settling. Not one bet on the Derby or Goodwood events came under our notice. The racing was very judiciously appointed to commence at half-past 11, the last event being set at 2 30, which enabled all to get off by the afternoon special and reach London in reasonable time. A Handicap Plate for all ages, T.Y.C., brought out eight only of the 17 on the card, Saladin being made a hot favourite at 5 to 2, and he won easily by a length from Guardsman. The match between Lord Westmoreland's Bavarde, 3 yrs, Bst 10Ib, and Sir J. Hawley's Callipolis, 2 yrs, 7st 71b, was productive of a deal of speculation, level money being taken to large amounts; but eventually the young one had the call, and justified the confidence of her sup porters by winning cleverly by three-quarters of a length. The Handicap Sweepstakes for three-yr-olds and upwards was contested by the five "coloured" on the card. Effie was made a great favourite at 7to 4, Guards man being next in demand at 5 to 2, while 7 to 2 could be had about Juliet ; and the old mare jumping off with the lead, was never headed, and won by a neck from Guards man, whom Fordham brought out with one of his superb rushes. The Handicap Plate for two-yr-olds, over the Chesterfield course, brought out twelve runners, the largest field of the day. Blackthorn was a great pot at 2to 1, Kinghorn and Miss Roland being supported at their re spective prices. The favourite was one of the first to show in advance, but on breasting the hill he gave way to Miss Roland, who, challenging. Stoic, won easily by a length and a half. The Queen's Plate brought out eight of the twelve on the card, Fantail being supported for large sums of even money. Soon after the start rain fell in torients, entirely shutting out the view of the horses until nearly home, when Fantail and Diana were seen a long way in front of Real Jam, who headed the others by some lengths. Fantail eventually won in a canter by a length ; the others beaten off. The Plate of £lOO, last six furlongs of R.M., was won in a canter by Ambition, defeating the two favourites Puebla and Ozone; and the Sweepstakes over the T.Y.C. was carried off by Saffron, who still runs in Admiral Rous's colours, the Duke of Beaufort having re turned the mare to the Admiral after the match yesterday. We cannot take leave of Newmarket without testifying to the extreme courtesy of Mr. Heavens, the station-master, who gives every facility in his power to the members of the press, enabling them to get off their parcels with despatch. The following are full details of the running : Handicap Plate of 50 sovs. for all ages. New T.Y.C. Mr. W. Gardener's Saladin, 3 yrs, Est llb (Huxtable) 1 Mr. R.

At the foot of the hill Guardsman drew up to Bella, the latter half up giving way to Saladin, who won easily by a length, Guardsman defeated Bella by two lenths for second place ; Clairvoyant° was fourth, Bavarde fifth, Bayard sixth, and Armadillo last.

Mr. Hughes's mare won by a neck ; two lengths separated the second and third ; Lady of Coverham was a bad fourth; and Principal last. Handicap Plate of 50 soya, for two-yr-olds. Chester field Course.

Half way up the hill Blackthorn dropped back, and Miss Roland joined Stoic, whom she headed and won cleverly by a length and a half ; throe quarters of a length in the rear of Mr. Ten Brock's colt was Master Strutt; Blackthorn was fourth, The Sharper fifth, King horn sixth, the last three being Odega, Duchess of New castle, and Capricious.

The twenty-second anniversary festival of this institu tion, the object of which is to provide pensions for aged and infirm gardeners, and others connected with horticul tural pursuits, was celebrated last evening at the London Tavern. J. R. Jeffery, Esq., of Woolton Hall, Liverpool, occupied the chair. Amongst the gentlemen present were Col. Scott, of the Horticultural Society ; Col. Burnaby, of the Grenadier Guards ; Mr. Sergeant Atkinson ; Donald Nicoll, Esq. ; Col. Jacques ; G. F. Wilson, Esq., of the Horticultural Society ; George Child, Esq. ; G. Leo, Esq. ; Fraser, Esq. ; Willy, Esq. ; Turner, Esq., and about 150 other gentlemen. The large room of the tavern was splendidly adorned with choice exotics, the great display being made at the top of the room behind the cross table. Here were some of the finest foliage plants extant, intermixed with fuschias, lilies, and geraniums of colossal dimensions. The tables were profusely decorated with roses of every variety—th e general effect being of the most magnificent description. The usual loyal and complimentary toasts having been disposed of in the most telling manner, Tho CHAIRMAN rose to give the toast of the evening. He said he called upon all to fill theieglasses, bumpers, because upon him devolved the pleasure and privilege of proposing the toast of the evening—it was " Prosperity to the Gar deners' Royal Benevolent Institution." (Cheers.) The society was of a most unpretending character, because it had neither to contend with poverty nor riches, yet if the company ho had the happiness of seeing before him were to embarass its officers with riches, he dared say they would not consider it an inflic tion. (Laughter.) When he looked upon the luscious fruit and the beautiful flowers beneath which the tablet groaned, ho felt he need hardly say a word in behalf of those whose business it was to produce and bring them to perfection ; but a task had been imposed upon him, and therefore he had to endeavour to discover the hiding place of Aaron's rod which was to strike therock, viz., tho breeches pocket—(laughter)—from which was to rush that refreshing stream which fructified as it flowed. (Cheers.) They had that night to take steps to keep alive some old and valued plants that ,had nobly done their work and now required their kind sympathy and attention. They had 57 of them, viz., 30 females and 27 males, whose average age was 76. He felt he should not appeal to them in vain, and in that pleasant belief his task became a light and pleasing one. He asked those who had their corridors filled with some of the finest specimens of painting and sculpture, and their gardens with fragrant flowers, which of those they would rather forego, and he felt that each one present would willingly yield the former in order to give themselves up to the gratifying indulgence of the latter. If that was so it surely became their duty to think of those who assisted them, and gratitude alone would render it their duty to see that their latter days were made peaceful and pleasant. Gardening had its honours as well as other pursuits, in illustration of which he pointed to his departed friend Sir Joseph Paxton. (Cheers.) He, from being a gardener in the service of the Horticultural Society, at 18s. a-week, by his indomitable perseverance lived to become the associate of a duke, a member of the British Parliament, to have his ;lame en• rolled as ono of the aristocracy of the British realm. (Cheers.) The society was founded in 1838, but its pros perity commenced in 1842, when they had the happiness of seouring the services of their energetic and untiring secretary. Be found the institution had distributed in the gross no less a sum than £12,700, and that they had still a shot in the locker, in the shape of £5,000 of funded stock —(hear, hear)—and he felt he spoke the sentiments of every one present when he hoped that the institution might double that amount in half the time they had been in getting the £5,000 together. - Lie would say no more, but resume his seat, coramendingthe toast most strenuously, most ardently, and most sincerely, to the kindly considera tion of every one present. The toast was responded to with the greatest enthu siasm. Mr. Serjeant Anussox said a duty had been imposed upon him which was of the most pleasing nature—it was to propose the health of the chairman. More words than the mere announcement of the simple fact were un necessary, as all knew him to be one of Nature's noblemen. (Loud cheers.) This toast was also most enthusiastically responded to. The CHAIRMAN said, when he was applied to, ho felt it his duty to respond to the request made to him to preside that evening, but he was quite at a loss adequately to re turn thanks for the manner in which his health had been received. It had been put in such a flattering manner and received so warmly, that he could only express the hope that the chair would be filled on future anniversaries by gentlemen who felt as great an interest as he did in the well-being of the institution. The health of the secretary having been proposed and warmly responded to, Mr. CUTLER said he certainly could not convey to them the feelings he then experienced. Ire had done his best for the institution, and it was an inexpressible pleasure to find those exertions worthy of such special recognition. It was peculiarly gratifying for him to announce that the subscriptions received that evening amounted to the largest sum they had ever received—viz., 380 guineas, amongst which was the chairman's list, which amounted to 80 guineas. (Cheers.) The musical party embr ace d th e names of M i ss P oole (the Q u een of English ball a d s i ngers ) , M r. G P erren, Mr. L. Thomas, and Mr. Cumming ; and a more delightful selection of pieces we never remember to have listened to. THAMES. STTEALING WOOL.—Oliver Dodd, a strange-looking fellow, aged 58, and who described himself as a labourer, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with stealing 21b. of wool. George Maine, a Thames Police-constable, saw the pri soner yesterday afternoon in the London Docks looking in a cow-house containing some foreign birds, and he made remarks as he passed respecting the beauty of the birds. He went on his way a short distance and then watched the prisoner, and saw him go to a stack of Australian wool under a shed, cut open a bag, and take some wool out, which he stuffed up his back, about his legs and arms, and in the front of his person. Ile rushed upon the prisoner and took him into custody. Ho. took 21b. of wool from the prisoner. The prisoner said ho was a most unfortunate man. He mot with an accident, both hie logo were smashed, and he was in the St. Bartholomew's Hospital for six months. He was in great poverty with a wife and family to keep, and he did take a little wool for the purpose of selling, to pur chase bread for his family. Edward Ellis, a dock constable, said the prisoner was an old thief, and he believed his statement to be a pure invention, ;The prisoner had been summarily convicted five times for stealing wool, sugar, currants, indigo, and other things in the dock. Ono conviction and a fine of 40s. was for stealing 2jlb. of sugar, and the last one month's imprisonment for stealing slbs. of currants. Mr. Partridge said valuable property and merchandise was necessarily exposed in the docks, and that the pri soner appeared to be a common thief. He sentenced him to two months' imprisonment and hard labour. The next time the prisoner was before him, and a charge made out, he should commit the prisoner for trial.

PRITCHARD. The following appeared in our Late Edition yesterday:— EDINBURGH, FRIDAY. The intense interest manifested during the whole of the four days this extraordinary trial has lasted was greater than ever this morning. Crowds of people outside the court who had not been success ful in obtaining admission were trying every means in their power to gain an entrance into court, and the police had the greatest difficulty in keeping a space clear for those personally engaged in the trial. As early as seven o'clock this morning Parliament square was densely crowded, and as the hour of opening the court approached the crowd increased to such an extent that it was difficult to reach the top of the High -street. It was even greater than on the celebrated trials of Madeline Smith (who was tried eight years ago for poisoning her sweet heart, and was acquitted on the peculiar Scotch verdict of " Not Proven") and Mrs. Gilmore, who was also, acquitted on a similiar charge of poisoning her husband. The latter female, it will be remem bered, was the first person brought back under the extradition treaty with America. The court opened at ten o'clock, but for some time previous that portion not appropriated to the public presented an extraordinary appearance. The jury entered the court shortly before ten o'clock, and upon their lordships' arrival the prisoner was placed in the dock. His appearance was much the same as it was at he commencement of the trial. There was, how ever, a slight shade of sadness iu his expression, but no trace of that anxiety and deep mental suffering to be expected in a person charged with such a dreadful crime and with his life in such imminent danger. During the continuance of the summing up to-day, notwithstanding the strong remarks of the Solicitor-General with reference to the damag ing points in the evidence against the prisoner, he presented that coolness and indifference he has all along exhibited, with the exception of the time when his children were under examination. The Lord Justice Clerk, in a very audible voice, commenced his summing up, and having called to the recollection of the jury the evidence adthiced both on the part of the Crown and for the defence, concluded by earnestly impressing on the jury the importance of their fully considering all they had heard, and said that the case now only awaited their verdict. Unless they thought that clear conviction was brought to their minds it would be their duty to acquit him. They were not to proceed upon sus picion, or even strong suspicion, but there must be strong conviction in their minds, and if there was any reasonable doUbt, it was their duty to give the prisoner the benefit of that doubt ; but if they came to that clear conclusion of his guilt, they were not to allow any suggestion made for the defence to deter them from doing their duty. The learned judge having reminded the jury of the oath they had taken, concluded by beseeching an all-wise and all-seeing Providence to direct them to a right verdict. The jury retired at half-past one o'clock, and, after an absence of 55 minutes, returned into court. The Clerk of the Court, addressing th e j ury , said—Gentlemen, have you agreed to your verdict ? The Foreman, in a firm tone—We have. The Clerk of the Court—How say you, gentle men ; do yOu find the prisoner Guilty or Not Guilty ? The Foreman—We unanimously find the prisoner "GUILTY" of murdering Mary Jane. Taylor or Pritchard, his wife, and also unanimously find him " GUILTY" of the murder of Jane Cowan or Taylor, his wife's mother. Silence having been proclaimed, The Lord Justice Clerk put on the black cap and passed sentence. of death in the usual manner, which he said would be carried into effect at Glas gow, on Friday, the 28th of July. The prisoner was completely overcome when he heard his doom. LONDON GAZE ITE---Last Evening• ST. JAMES ' S PALACE, JULY G. The Queen has been pleased to appoint the Rev.

"'Tis not so deep as a well, nor so vide as a church door, but 'tis enough, 'twill serve." We have already spoken of the legislative acts, in connection with which Lord Westbury's name will go down to history, so long as the statute-book, whether unconsolidated or con solidated, shall remain. For those acts have been groat constructive measures, by which two courts of justice have their modern existence, another institution, scarcely less than a land court, has been created, and Equity has spread its branches over tho whole country. So long, too, as case law shall abide, his judgments will endure, as a witness of breadth of principle and skill in its application, cogency of reasoning and force of language. A more visible monu ment to Lord Westbury's successful energy will be the Palace of Justice, when, out of the place where foulness now engenders disease, it shall arise, as did the city of Peter the Great out of the synmips of the Neva.
