Marriage rt ...attires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order that it may he really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the yell. which cc vets the origin of domestic wretchedness. be raised, and its true source iu every instance disclosed, in how many could *the traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. :Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when lased in modoration Is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused .the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constit ational and vital powers. The particular excesses. on she stature and conseauence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity ef misery to the human triune, Shen say other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the A n atomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requ ires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of More Importaace than the preservation of the health, and of the physical capabilities of which every man should b e pos sessed. It nafertunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired In early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for sw e e t/thee where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he tbrgets that acenrate discrimination, a ascertaining the cansee of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy , inva slaMy characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show by his possession of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his prefes- M o nal pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MEIIT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost palely to the treatment of these diseases.

MEETING OF/MIDDLESE MA , /91STRATES. On Thursday it' meeting of the magistrates of the county of Middlesex took place at Hick's- hall, Cler ken well. The chair was filed by Mr. H. Powrall. The deputy cleik of the peace having read the mi nutes of the last court, the reports of the visiting j ustices of the county prisons were produced and real. That relating to Col.llath-fields prison stated the sanitary condition of the establishment to be satisfactory: it contained a to tal of 1,141 prisoners, exclusive of child:en—viz , 933 males and 208 females. The report from Westminster Bridewell stated the number of prisoners at present therein confined to bc 537 males and 197 females, making a total of 734. The report from the Nouse of Detention showed that since the date of the last report, January 10, the total number of prisoners committed to that prison was 1,846. I.lslauTuoarsED VISITORS To PRISONS.—In conse quence of the governor of the Coldbath-firlds prison having, some short time ago, received at the prison as visitors two persons who were objectionable to the visit ing justices, that body passed a resolution making it imperative that every visitor should have his name and address entered in a book to be kept for that purpose by the gate porter. The governor protested against it; but, as far as regarded them, the visiting justices deter mined to enforce the regulation, and the chaplains now memorialised the full court to order the rule to be ex punged from the order-book. A long and. very animated discussion took place upon the matter, and the result was, that the rule laid down by the visiting justices was confirmed; the numbers being—ayes, 20; noes, 18. NEW LUNATIC A SYLU2I. It was resolved to raise 10,0001., by mortgage on the county rates, for the new lunatic asylum at Colney Hatch, making a total of 30,0001. raised for the same purpose. After transacting some routine business the court broke up. ATTORNEYS' ANNUAL CERTIFI- CATE DUTY. On Wednesday ameeting of the attorneys of the:metro polis was held at the Law Society s Hall, in Chancery lane, for the purpose of considering the best mode of inducing the legislature to repeal the above named tax. The chair was taken by Mr. C. Ranken. Mr. WING proposed the first resolution. In doing so the speaker entered into some details respect ing the imposition of the certificate duty and its progressive increase, and showing its pressure o❑ the calling of attorneys. The sum extracted from this class in the four terms of the years 1844 and 1845 amounted to 89,2221. The per tentage of the annual certificate duty on the average incomes of attorneys was 41., whilst the whole average amount ex tracted from attorneys' incomes was no less than 9 per cent. per annum, taking into account the heavy duties imposed on articles of clerkships and on annual admis sions. The operation of the tax was to exclude a great number of persons from practising the calling of an attorney, whilst at the same time advantage was taken of that circumstance to enable several persons not licensed as attorneys to practice under legal certificate. With these observations he begged to move the follow ing resolution:— " That the profession of attorneys and solicitors is unjustly taxed towards the exigencies of the State, and that the payment of the duty of 1201. on their articles of clerkship and 25Z on their admission (equivalent on the average of lives to the annual payment of 9/. and up wards), and the annual certificate duty of 12/. and 81., besides the income-tax of three per cent, paid by them in common with the rest of the community (making altogether an income-tax of 101. per cent. on the average of their professional incomes), is unjust and oppressive." Mr. KINDERI-LEY seconded the resolution, which, after some discussion, was unanimously agreed to. Mr. K. BARNES and Mr. ARMSTRONG respectively proposed and seconded the next resolution, as follows: " That as the incosue of attorneys and solicitors is de rived from severe mental application, is dependent on health, and is consequently of a precarious tenure, instead of paying a greater tax than others, the taxes on their professional incomes should be in proportion to such tenure." After a lengthened discussion the resolution was agreed to. The third resolution was to the effect, " That if the legislature, in spite of the Efforts of the attorneys, per sisted in levying a special tax on them, then that, instead of appropriating this amount to the public revenue, it ought to be appropriated exclusively to the purpose of providing for the education of the rising generation of attorneys." This resolution was proposed by Mr. CROWDER, and seconded by Mr. FIELD in an able speech, wherein the latter gentleman insisted upon the facts lately exposed at the old Bailey and other criminal courts, showing that the attorneys of a certain class did ii-.t scruple to lend themselves to the practices of protecting and encourag ing unqualified persons in the practice of criminal law. The general sense, however or the meeting was very strongly expressed on the subject, and after a stormy discussion, in which it was broadly intimated that the resolution if carried would stultify the two previous ones, as well as tend to place at the disposition of the Law Club a large sum of money levied un the whole class of attorneys, the resolution was negatived by an all but unanimous show of hands. The third (actual) resolution was then proposed by Mr. CITRRIE and seconded by Mr. COVERDALE aS follows: " That the foregoing resolutions be signed by the chairman and advertised in the daily papers, and that a petition founded thereon and now read be presented to both houses of parliament, and that the council of the Incorporated Law Society be requested to take charge of such petition." Which being agreed to, the meeting passed a vote of thanks to the chairman and separated. r z l; 2 - , WHITEHALL, DlAucn_lB The Lord Chancellor has appointed William Henry Brooke, of Dudley, in the couty of Worcester, Gent., to be a Master Extraordinary in the High Court of Chancery.

THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.—The immense quantity of rain which has fallen almost continuously for a very long period, threatens already to commit rude havcc on the agricultural prospects of our own county in this eventful year. It appears that in great part of the country, the wheat is completely inundated, and farmers find it impossible, in the present state of the weather, to proceed with barley sowing and other agri cultural operations. The barometer was never known to be so low for so extended a period; and on Sunday last, the instrument in the Philosophical Room, sank to a lower figure than at any recent period. Whether the coming comet has really exerted any influence in pro ducing these natural phenomena we really cannot tell; but certainly both in the political and in the natural world, the aspect of the; horizon is peculiarly gloomy and clouded at this moment.—Cambr i dge Advertise,.

It was absurd to say that these lotteries and sweeps were not illegal: although he :Omitted there was no express Act of Parliament upon the point, yet the very tenor of the license granted to a publican was that he should not permit gaming in his house. Alderman COPELAND said there was no law stating that these lotteries and sweeps for horse racing was illegal, and he believed, as the law now stood, they were perfectly legal, and it was unfair to deprive the applicant of his license on such grounds. If it was an evil, which he was not prepared to admit, - why not at once attack the larger houses at the %Vest-end, where gaming and speculation were carried out to an enormous extent? Sir P LAURIE could assure the applicant that if the case had been within his own ward, or at Marylebone, the licence should not be granted. Mr. Wire repeated his assurance that the sweeps should be discontinued: After a brief consultation amongst the Aldermen, The Loan MAYOR said the Court would, in considers tion of the assurance given by Mr. Wire, on the part of the applicant, that all sweeps should be discontinued, allow the license to be renewed. SURREY SESSIONS. (Before Mr. PUCKLE, Chairman.) Mackinson, aged 19, and John Lane, aged 15, were brought up on an indictment, charging them with feloniously stealing one rump and loin of beef, the pro perty of Henry Casswell, butcher, residing in the parish of St. George the Martyr. Two witnesses were called, who stated that they saw the prisoners take the property in question. Upon their cross-examination it appeared. that one ofiltegt, a Ude had recently undergone - a month's imprisonment for felony; and the other witness, a female, was at present cohabiting with a person in the absence of her husband, who was undergoing a punishment of 14 years' transpor tation for felony. It was contended upon these facts, that no reliance could be placed on their evidence. The jury found both prisoners Guilty, and they were eack sentenced to four months' hard labour. Several charges of misdemeanour for obtaining goods and money upon false pretences, to all of which the pri• soners pleaded Guilty, were disposed of by the Court. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. WORSHIP-STREET. A young widow, who gave her name Sarah Wood, and her residence as Tabernacle-walk, Finsbury, applied to Mr. Hamill to afford her redress for a grievance she had sustained at the hands of a master baker, and which, it was stated by one of the officers, was a practice of by no means unfrequent occurrence. The applicant said, that on Saturday night last she, with some difficulty, provide:. herself with a loin of mut ton for the Sunday's dinner of herself and family, and left it at the baker's shop next morning for the purpose of being cooked in his oven. Having noticed a very visible decrease in the siu of her joints on other occa sions in the course of their transit to and from various bakers', she took the precaution this time of previously counting the number of ribs the joint contained, and having found, upon calling for it at dinner time, that two of the ribs had been cut off, she complained to the baker's wife of the robbery, but, so tar from hearing any expression of regret, her complaint was treated with de rision, and any allowance for the portion stolen was refused. She had made several subsequent applications, but with no better success, and as the loss was a matter of consideration to her, she having been left with two children in very impoverished circumstances on the death of her husband, who committed suicide a few weeks ago, she was anxious to know whether she could not have some redress for the injury. Mr. Hamm'. directed Bricknell, one of the warrant officers, to go at once to the house of the person com plained of, and endeavour to effect some advantageous arrangement for the poor woman ; but on his return to the court the officer reported that all his attempts at mediation had been peremptorily rejected by the baker, who strangely argued that if the complainant's state ment were correct, it was clear that the meat had been stolen ,by one of his servants, and said that he con sidered both the magistrate and the officer were ex ceeding their duty in endeavouring to make him a party to the composition of a felony. Upon hearing this, the magistrate said that he should certainly adopt some more stringent means of enforcing the claim of the woman, and immediately issued a sum mons against the baker for an illegal detention of the meat, which he directed to be served forthwith. This step had the desired effect, ftr the defendant himself shortly after made his appearance with a material abatement of his tone, and after declaring that he meant no intentional disrespect to the Bench by what he had previously said, stated that he had been absent from home the whole of the day in question, and as it was impossible for him to rebut the allegation made against him, he was willing, if the magistrate would allow him, to afford the woman any recompense that might be con sidered reasonable. This course was ultimately acceded to by the poor widow, and a satisfactory compensation having been offered her, which she accepted, she withdrew her com plaint, and Mr. Hemmer, then ordered the summons to be discharged and the defendant with it. WESTMINSTER. William Clare and Robert Hall, the former of whom is a very powerful-looking man, were charged with being concerned, with a man named Calton, at present under remand, in a very daring highway robbery, the particulars of which were detailed in The Sun of yesterday. The prisoner Clare is the person described in the 'ormer report of the case as the man in the flannel jacket. Mr. Cole, the prosecutor, repeated at full length his statement of the previous day, in the course of which he said he saw both the prisoners at the public-house at the foot of Westminster-bridge, and Clare joined with the man Cayton in conversation with him. Prosecutor could not swear positively to the person of Hall as the man who held the bar of iron in his hand and robbed him while Cayton pinioned him, but in general appear ance he closely resembled him. Francis Sullivan, the labourer who gave some impor tant evidence on Wednesday, stated that he saw the prisoner Hall in company with two others, at the Nag's Head, Tethill-street, Westminster (immediately after the robbery). Ho saw Hall with what appeared to be a gold watch in his hand showing it to the others. The men Caxton and Clare then came immediately after wards and spoke to Hall ; and then a dispute arose amongst them about the watch. Evidence was given to show that prosecutor and the man Cayton were seen together a few minutes before the robbery, and Halls and others were a short distance be hind, following them. Mark Loon, a sergeant of the N division, proved ap prehending the prisoners on Thursday night. Hall said he would go quietly, and declared he knew nothing about the robbery. Clare, who was drunk at the time he was taken into custody, observed that he knew the man that had been robbed, but was innocent about the watch. Mr. BURRELL asked the prisoners what they had to say to the charge ? Clare admitted that he was in conversation with the prosecutor at the public house near Westminster-bridge, but denied that he spoke to Hall at the Nag's Head, in Tothill-Areet, or knew anything of the robbery. Hall said, he could prove that he was in bed at half past twelve o'clock on Wednesday night (about an hour before the robbery). Mr. Cumming, an inspector of the B division, ob served, that if it were necessary he could show that Hall was seen in the streets two hours after the time he alleged. Mr. BURRELL did not consider there was any necessity to call a witneos to that circumstance in the preset' stage of the proceedings, and remanded the prisoners Thursday next. would lend me sixpence to get a bed with to-night I shall soon have some money and I can manage. Nir:TYRWHITT declined this; and The prisoner expressed his willingness to go into the workhouse. He was brought to St. Luke's parish with a caution that if he was brought to this Court again under similar circumstances the law would be put in force against him. PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS.

Francis Power, a tall, portly man, twenty-eight 'ears of age, was charged under the following circum- stances: — A police-constable of the G division :deposed that yesterday morning, at an early hour, the prisoner was wandering about the streets in a wild manner, without coat, waistcoat, or hat , and on questioning him he re fused to give a satisfactory account of himself, and he took him to the station-house. Mr. TYRWEITT asked him whether he had any friends in London. Prisoner —My father is Major Power, of 5, Belgrave street, Belgrave-square, a Waterloo man, who fought under the Duke of Wellington, and I have had the honour to hold a commission in her Majesty's service, but I geld out, and am now distressed and destitute. I have not tatted a morsel of food during 24 hours, and I had not the means to pay for a lodging. Mr. TYRWHITT—W hat have yon done with your coat and waistcoat? Prisoner—l sent them to a tailor to be repaired, and he decamped with them. Mr. TYRWHITT—What regiment did you belong to ? Prisoner—The 323, quartered in the Pigeon-house Fort, near Dublin. I was an ensign. Mr. Tvawnirr directed an officer to give the prisoner some refreshment, and to go and communicate with his father, and request his attendance. The officer did so, and subsequently returned and informed the Bench that Major Power declined coming forward unless he was compelled to do so. The prison er had disgraced himself through his drunken, profligate habits, through which he had lost his commission in the army and vas turned out of his regiment. He was a disgrace to him and his family, and he forbade him his house. He allowed him 10s. per week, which he expended in drink. He had frequently supplied him with clothes, which he imme diately sold, and he had been charged several times at the police courts under similar circumstances. Mr. Time HITT said, it was lamentable to see a person like the prisoner, who had held a commission in her Majesty's service, in so degraded a position. He asked him it he was willing to go into the workhouse ? Prisoner—Why, I was never in such a place. If you NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

THE ROBBERY OF 3COI. AT THE ROTUNDA HOTEL, LIVERPOOL.—On Fiiday a young man, of rather onsrt appearance was brought up before Mr. Rushton, at the Police Court, upon the charge of being the party who committed the above robbery. Police-constable Keogh, of the detective force, stated the facts of the case, and added that ever since the robbery bad been committed he and Bates, another officer, had been in search of the thief. On Thursday evening the prisoner was appre hended, and, upon being placed in the back office by Superintendent Brown, amongst some other parties, Mr. Shane's nepllew immediately pointed him out as being the person who had committed the robbery. The nephew swore positively to the prisoner. Bates, the constable, stated that be apprehended the prisoner on Thursday night, on suspicion of being the thief, but as yet no portion of the money had been recovered. Mr. Owen, who appeared for the prisoner, said that he could prove an alibi, but that be declined doing so at present. Mr. Rushton said he should remand him. It was then stated that the prisoner was in custody in 1835, but was then discharged. In 1845 he was imprisoned three months ; and since then he had been twice convicted, and once discharged. Mr. Rushton—" Oh! I remember the man well enough now, and so do you, Mr. Owen; he is the man upon whom the eighty sovereigns were found after the Islington robbery.

EASTERN ARCHIPELAGO COMPANY Instituted far the Extension of Commerce in the China Seas and for Promoting the Civilization of Borneo, &c. Incorporated by Royal Charter. Capital, 200,0001., in 2,000 Shares of 1001. each. DIRECTORS. JOHN MACGREGOR, Esq., Chairman. Captain C. R. Drinkwater Bethune, R.N., C.B. Alexander Nairne, Esq., Director of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company. Hugh Hamilton Lindsay, Esq. Sir John Pirie, Bart., Depaty-Chairman of the Penin sular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company. Henry Wise, Esq. Beemeas—Messes, Glyn, Hallifax, Mills, and Co., London. The objects of this Company are to carry on mining, agricultural, and trading operations in the Eastern Archipelago, and the acquiring and disposing of lands in the Island of Labuan and the parts adjacent —a region abounding in mineral wealth, most fertile in all the valu able tropical productions, and very happily situate for the purposes of commerce. The Island of Labuan has been formally taken possession of by the Crown of Great Britain ; and, by a treaty with the Sultan of Borneo, many highly important advantages are permanently secured to this country. Piracy in the eastern seas will now be effectually suppressed, and, under the protection of the British flag at Labuan a new era as regards those regions, has commenced, which affords the most fa vourable opportunity for successfully accomplishing the objects of this Company. To those who are at all acquainted with the Indian Archipelago, it is wholly unnecessary to expatiate on the advantages to be derived from this undertaking. The important discovery of an abundant sup ply of excellent coal on the mainland of Borneo, in the immediate vi cinity of Labuan, is a circumstance which of itself would render this enterprise pregnant with the most beneficial results. A formal grant of this coal, extending through a district of about 150 miles, has been obtained from the Sultan of Borneo, and is, with the approval of her Majesty's Government, now held by Mr. Wise, with whom arrange ments for its working will be made. The working of the eoal mines will form an important feature in the operations of the Company, The geographical position of the Borneo coal districts in relation to our Eastern possessions, mad to the steam communications which are now carried on, and others which are about to be carded on in con nexion therewith, is a matter of peculiar interest, and even of na tional importance. The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, for instance, disburse more than 130,0001. annually for coal for their steam-vessels, of which sum about 90,0001. are ex pended in coal used to the eastward of the Cape of Good lIo?e. This coal, as well as the requisite supplies for the steatn•vessels of her Majesty's navy, and for those of the Honourable East India Com pany on the India and China stations, is at present chiefly furnished from England, at an average cost exceeding 335. per ton ; so that the expenditure by her Majesty's Government, the honourable East In dia Company. and the Peninsular and Oriental Company for the sin gle item of coal, will be considerably reduced as soon as the opera tions of the Eastern Archipelago Company are sufficiently matured to admit of their supplying the several depots which have been esta blished at Hong-Kong, Singapore, and other places, with coal for the use of the many British and Foreign she m-vessels re - orting to those ports. The certain increase in the consumption of coal in the eastern seas, from the causes already mentioned, and the opening of other channels of demand, cannot fail eventually to augment the use of Borneo coal. The projected steam communication between Singapore and our Australian colonies—the probable communication by the same means at no distant period, between the various British settle ments to the eastward of the Cape of Good Hope and the west coast of America—as well as the system of railways now about to be esta blished in India—are events eminently calculated to occasion an immense consumption of Borneo coal, the more so as it can be sup plied at comparatively moderate rates. Samples of the Labuan and Borneo coal have been brought over to this country by Mr. Wise, add submitted by her Majesty's Government to a careful examination and analysis by competent parties, with a most satisfactory result. The Borneo coal has also been pronounced by the Calcutta t oaf Committee, appointed by the Bengal Government, to be equal to the best English coal ; and Captain Wallage, in his report on the supplies of coal obtained from the seam at Labuan, for the use of the Honourable East India Company's steam-ship Nemesis, dated Sarawak, 10th June, 1847, observes—" I have no hesitation in stating that the coal received at Labuan is equal to any English coal I have seen on board steamers in India, and decidedly better than any coal worked in India for steam purposes:" The portion of territory contemplated for the first operations of the Eastern Archipelago Company possesses a climate and sell admir ably adapted fur the culture of cotton, tobacco, sugar, coffee, rice, nutmegs, pepper, and other valuable productions, and is most favourably situate, having the advantage of Labuan, now subject to British dominion, as a point d'appul ; nor can there be a doubt of the excellent position of the proposed field of enterprise for an ex tensive and lucrative commerce. The proximity of Java, Sumatra, Siam, Cochin-China, Hainan, Manilla, Celebes, &c., is not only of great importance in this respect, but also as affording the means of introducing with facility from those places Chinese and other colo• mists, and labourers to any extent requited for the service of the Company. Labuan itself will form an essential link in the chain of our eastern settlements, from Penang, Malacca, and Sinsapore to Hong Kong ; and in the district of Sarawak every protection and encouragement will be granted by Mr. Brooke in furtherance of the Company's objects. In short, every circumstance justifies the anti cieation that the late proceedings of the British Government relating to Borneo, if followed up with vigour by the operations of the pre sent Company, will change that which has been heretofore a region of piracy, lawless violence, danger and desolation, into a scene of busy, peaceful, and beneficial co mmerce; bringing the advantages of progressive civilisation to a large and fertile tract of the globe, and conferring extensive benefits on the commerce and manufactures of Great Britain. The philanthropist and the statesman, as well as the merchant, will thus feel interested in this design, which, through the medium of British enterprise, sanctioned and protected by the wis dom and decision of the Government, promises the amelioration of the condition of the natives of the Indian Archipelago, among whom there exists a disposition most favourable to the development cf the resources of those countries. The view here taken of the pronfsing character of the undertak ing is not hypothetical, but is the result of the arduous personal re searches of various individuals, who, in times past, have been de sirous of widening the circle of commerce and civilization, and, among others more recently, of Mr. Wise, who has for several years devoted his time to the closest investigation of the subject. To his patient and indefatigable perseverance for a long period in calling the attention of her Majesty's Government to the importance of Labuan as the site of a British settlement, may be ascribed the fact, that the protection of our flag is now extended to countries so important both in a political and commercial point of view. The Queen has appointed Mr. Brooke Governor and C mmander in-Chief in and over the Island of Labuan and its dependencies, as well as her Majesty's Commissioner and Consul-General to the Sultan and independent chiefs of Borneo. These measures, and the course of policy which they indicate, will materially faci Rate and advance the objects and interests of the Company throughout the Eastern Ar chipelago. The Company-being incorporated by Royal Charter, the responsi bility of each shareholder is limited to the amount of his subscrip tion. The charter provides her the execution by the shareholders of a Deed of Settlement, to be approved by the President of the Board of Trade.

The Diamond Lamp is the best light in the world—is used in all the palaces in Europe—is free from all the imperfections of ordi nary all lamps—so simple it cannot be mismanaged—no cleaning re quired ter years—costs less in burning than any common oil lamp — gives double the light of candle lamps, at sne-half the expense—this is beyond doubt. Designs suited to every taste--the Diamond Lamp is perfection in Light—the public will bays none other—it can be fitted to any person's lamp pillar. To be had only (and burning cortitxually) at the Establishment of the Metropolitan Light Company, RICHARD CLARK, Resident Manager, 447, West Strand. London. Persons residing in the country need only send their oil cups, or the old lamp-head, to have the Diamond Lamp fitted. N.B. Puy none other than the Diamond Lamp.

Diffidence, or a sense of light determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em kitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, *not broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement.

(Before D. C. MoYLLN, Esq., Judge.) A CHIEF BARON IN DIFFICULTY.—HARRIS V. NICHOLSON. In this case the defendant, Renton Nicholson, " Chief Baron," as he styles himself, of a Judge and Jury So ciety held at the Garrick's Head, Bow street, had judg ment obtained against him some time back, and was ordered to pay the debt, 181., by instalments. The order of the Court he neglected, and was now summoned to show cause why he had not complied with that order. On the case being called yesterday, the " Baron " did not attend, but sent a friend to say he was ill in bed, and could not come to the court. In answer to questions from the Judge, the " Baron's" deputy said he had not seen Mr. Nicholson that day, but he saw him the previous day in bed, about one or two o'clock in the afternoon. JUDGE—I have seen many people in bed at that hour of the day, and yet they have not been iIL I suppose his habits are irregular, and he goes to bed late. The Deputy—He goes to bed late, but he never keeps in bed to that time. JUDGE—I cannot receive that at all as a sufficient ex cuse for his absence. He has been served personally with the judgment summons, and he was bound to ap pear. I suppose you are not a doctor.—(Laughter.) The Deputy—No, your Honour. JUDGE—Did you feel his pulse or try to form any opinion as to the nature of his illness.—(Great laughter.) Deputy—l did not, your Honour. JunoE—lt appears clear to me that it will be very easy for Mr. Nicholson to walk down to this court, and unless he does, or sends a medical certificate that he is really ill, I shall commit him to prison for contempt. The deputy rushed out of court, intending, it was sup posed, to fetch the " Chief Baron," but neither return ing before the rising of the Court, The Learned JUDGE directed a warrant to be issued for the committal of Mr. Nicholson to prison for twenty days. After this was done, it was utuertained that the plaintiff in the cause had not been present at all during. the day, but had been represented by an agent, who, every time he was -addressed, answered as if he was the plaintiff. The Learned JUDGE, after severely reprimanding the man for his conduct, said he had laid down a rule, from which he would not depart, never to commit a man to prison without the plaintiff attended in person. He was bound to attend, so as to answer any questions the de fendant might wish to put to him. The warrant of commitment was then rescinded, the " Chief Baron" thus escaping, through the absence of the plaintiff, incarceration in the common Bail of the county for the present. Another judgment summons was granted free. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York, March 23. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron RoLFz.) John Drury, Thomas Bulloss, William Hall, and John Marsden, who were yesterday found guilty of maliciously inciting, procuring, hiring, and commanding Alexander and Thomas Heathcote to commit a felony, by destroy ing the machinery of Peter Bradshaw, at the Kelham Wheel, in Sheffield, were this morning brought up to receive the sentence of the Court. _ _ . HIS LORDSHIP said, that the prisoners being in a higher station than the two Heathcotes (who had been convicted) had, by holding out to them promises of re ward and protection, incited them to the commission of the offence to which they (the Heathcotes) had pleaded guilty. Common sense dictated that those who hired others to commit a crime should receive a more severe sentence than those who . actually committed it. His Lordship then sentenced the prisoners to be severally transported for ten years. THE LEEDS MURDER. Mr. DEAnsLY made an application in the case of Michael Stokes, who had been convicted of murder, for a copy of the indictment, iu order that a writ of error might be brought to reverse the judgment, but he still hoped his Lordship would reserve the point for the con sideration of the judges. His LORDSHIP said he bad consulted his Learned Colleague, who thought with him, that the words " sent forth," which created the difficulty, might he rejected as surplusage, and that he should not reserve the point, but that he should be happy to hear Mr. Dearsly. Mr. DEARSLY then said, that the indictment charged that the prisoner, " Michael Stokes a certain musket then and there charged and loaded with gunpowder and one leaden bullet, to, against, and upon the said Mary Anne Garrad did shoot, discharge, and send forth, and that the said Michael Stokes, with the leaden bullet aforesaid, out of the musket aforesaid, then and there by the force of the gunpowder, so shot, discharged and sent forth as aforesaid, the said Mary Ann Garrad did strike, &c., giving to the said Mary Ann Garrad, with the leaden bullet aforesaid, so shot, discharged, and sent forth out of the musket aforesaid, one mortal wound, &c." He submitted, therefore, that these allegations were repugnant, inasmuch as the first allegation was that the musket was discharged, shot, and sent forth; in the subsequent allegation it was charged that the bullet so discharged, shot, and sent forth as aforesaid, caused the death. These allegations were inconsistent and repug nant. In answer to a question from his LORDSHIP, Mr. DEARSLY said, he was arguing upon the record, and not upon the evidence. Whereupon His LORDSHIP said, that the proper remedy was in error, and that the Attorney - General would, if be thought there was anything in the point, issue his fiat for the writ, and make the proper representation to the Home- office. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—Oahham, March 23. The Right Hon. Sir T. Wilde and the Hon. Mr. Justice Maulo arrived here this morning, and having opened the commission took their seats in the County hall at half-past 10 o'clock; the Lord Chief Justice pre siding in the Crown Court, and Mr. Justice Maule on the Civil Side. There appeared in the calendar on this occasion the rather unusual number of thirteen prisoners for trial for the county of Rutland. Of these one was charged with murder, another with rape, and the remainder with the more ordinary and lighter class of offences of every day occurrence. There were two causes, of which one was undefended. CROWN COURT.—(Before Lord CHIEF JUSTICE WILDE.) THE QUEEN V. STAUGUTON. This was an indictment for a rape upon a female child of the age of l2i years. Mr. MACAULAY conducted the prosecution, and at the request of the Learned Judge watched the case for the prisoner. The prosecutrix, a very intelligent and modest-looking girl, of the ago above stated, had been sent on the 7th of January last from Barrowden to Uppingham, a distance of six miles, to carry a letter to Mr. Hope, a chemist there. When near Glaston, a village one mile and a half from Uppingham, she was passed by three men, with whom was a dog of rather remarkable colour and appearance, which in the event served as a material piece of evidence to establish the identity of the prisoner. The three mon and the idog passed her on the road going towards Uppingham, and she lost sight of them. When within about ono mile of Uppingham the prosecutrix was accosted by a man, whom she positively swore to be the prisoner, and who was accompanied by a dog exactly resembling the one she had previously seen. She thou described the details of the offence per petrated upon her, which was not effected until he had inflicted some blows upon her face and used frightful threats to intimidate her. When released she made the best of her way to Upping. ham, and presented herself to Mrs. Hope in a state of the utmost distress and suffering. From the description given of the man the police set off in quest of the prisoner who was well known as a railway navigator in the neigh bouihood, and atter a protracted search he was found concealed under a bed in the house of a friend, where he was denied when inquired for, but the dog being in the house the search was persevered in. All doubt as to the accuracy of the prosecution in speaking to his identity was removed by the evidence of two witnesses, who proved that he was one of the three men seen, as above stated, by her near Glaston, and that the dog was the same dog, and had been recently stolen by the prisoner. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty; and the pri soner was sentenced to be transported for the term of his natural life. In the case of murder the grand jury ignored the bill. The prisoner was a young girl employed nursing a baby. The prosecutrix, the mother of the infant, on coming into the room, found the baby in a dying state, and on smelling at the mouth detected the smell of Landmn's. Shortly afterwards she saw the prisoner shut an oven, and, on going to look into it, discovered a bottle con taininr, laudanum. There was no evid e nce , however , of the administering e by the Prisoner, or of her having pur chased, acquired, or been herself in the possession of any laudanum. We believe that nearly all the evidence against the prisoner was that above mentioned, but the facts did not transpire in court, the bill having, as before stated, been ignored by the grand jury. LONDON ADJOURNED SESSIONS. (Before the LORD MAYOR and a full bench of Aldermen.) SUPPRESSION OF DERBY SWEEPS.—Mr. D. W. WIRE appeared in support of the application of H. H. Watts, of the Fleece public-house, Knightrider-street, Doctors' Commons, for a renewal of his licence, which had been suspended at the previous Court, on the suggestion of Alderman Wilson, who had intimated to the Court that the applicant allowed Derby and other sweeps for money for the purpose of horse racing and gambling to take place at his house. Mr. Wire complained that the the applicant should have been so strongly opposed by the worthy Alderman, for th e committal of an act which was carried on in almost every public-house in London. He would not in the present case go into the question of the legality of racing-sweeps ; but he would say that there was nothing in the Act of Parliament directly making them illegal; the applicant was desirous to conduct his house in a proper manner, and with a view to remove the opposition and the preju dice of Alderman Wilson, was quite willing to under take that the sweeps should be discontinued in future, and he had already r- moved his bills from the window. Mr. Wire, therefore, trusted the Court would feel that the license ought to be granted. ) Alderman WILSON was very glad to hear that the I applicant had adopted this course, for otherwise ho was SUPPLY. Motion made, and Question proposed, " That the Order of the Day for the Committee of Supply be now read :" Amendment proposed, to leave out from the word " That" to the end of the Question, in order to add the words " an humble Address be presented to her Majesty, praying that she will be graciously pleased to :give directions that nego tiations be entered into with Foreign Powers to relieve this country from the engagement under which it labours, of maintaining a squadron upon the coast of Africa," instead thereof:--Question put, " That the words proposed to be left out stand part of the Question."
