SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. - The constabulary force of Ireland has been de servedly the object of repeated and severe censure. The manner in which it has been perverted from its original design to effect the purposes of local oppres- Fors, and sustain the tyranny of a merciless faction, has rendered it hateful to the people, and in nume rous instances detrimental to public order and tran quillity. But the institution, in its abstract prin ciple, contains the elements of much good—and if it were fairly and honestly worked, might be ren dered most beneficial, and, consequently, most ac he was not engaged in delivering seditious speeches— was employed in writing letters of rank . abuse against Lord Duncannon and the rest of the " paint and _ I?_tt; " Cabinet, for which the Agitator could assign no better reason than that the said Cabinet had not yet screwed up its courage to the enormity of distri buting all the Government patronage among O'Con nell's own creatures, the pledged partisans of Repeal of the Union, and enemies of the British Crown. How comes it that in April, 1835, the very same Ministers have the benefit of his ostentatious protection, when in September, 1834, he had covered them with the most outrageous and contemptuous insults ? Has O'Con nell been more propitiated towards the maintenance of our Protestant institutions—to the existence of the Church of Ireland, or to the union with Great Britain (Death's-heads and cross-bones for that I) ; or is it not because the Melbournes, Duncannons, and Lords ', John Russell have now agreed to their subversion Look, accordingly, at the disposal of offices this year, as compared with the last. Look at the shoal of Irishry—we do not mean Irishry of birth, but of politics—which have invaded the public offices since this second advent of Lord Melbourne—this millen nium of the priesthood. Look at the eager, the fe verish adoption, by the Ministers of April, - 1835, of that very principle which they rejected in the autumn of 1834, as being an unjustifiable overture of hostility towards the Protestant Church ; reflect again upon the nature of that most atrocious Bill, which, under the name of Irish Municipal Reform, was to have destroyed the last vestige of Protestant independence throughout Ireland. To be sure, according to custom, a plausible abstraction is pressed into the service of Popery, and The title of " popular " suffrage has been affixed to a gross prostitution and perversion of the municipal fran chise, whereby every occupant of a dwellin g _ valued at 51. per annum has the privilege to vote. But as such voters would be in ninety-nine cases of every hundred Roman Catholics, it is easy to seefrom.the bondage of the 101. electors for counties to their uriests, what sort of havoc would be made by those Rev. persons amongst the five voters for city or borough counsel lors. Of this measure, as we have said, the sole pur pose was, under the name of liberty, to place the heel of the priest upon the neck of every Irish corporation, and, under the vague and fraudulent pretext of pious equality, to subject the whole Protestant interest of Ireland to the intolerable tyranny of a priest-ridden rabble. Now, if it be acknowledged that the more re volutionary proceedings of the mock 'Whig Cabinet this year, as compared with the last, have been accompanied by a total change in the party polities of Mr. O'Con nell also, who from the bitter persecutor of the Mel bourne clique, has metamorphosed himself into their protector, we ask any man with the least spark of common sense, whether he sees in such counter marches on both sides nothing but simple, accidental, coincidence, and not the unquestionable relation of cause and effect—in other words, a coarse and unprin cipied traffic, by which the Whigs barter away the „ . 's Irish crown, and - the Protestant people's riles, for a twelvemonth's lodging in Downing-street, ceptable to 'those who now regard it with abhorrence. In the present state of society, and we fear for some years to come, a degree of restraint and vi gilance, superior to that of a merely civil power, will be requisite - for the preservation of the public peace. This admission, which we make with some reluctance, is less derogatory to the people who require to be controlled, than to those who by harshness and injustice have brought them to that condition. But of its truth there can scarcely be a doubt. As long as houseless misery continues to be the lot of one million and upwards of her population, and insecurity as to any abiding home that of twice as many besides -while landlords, deaf to the cries of nature, sternly persist in doing " as they will with their own"—while ignorance prevails (amongst the gentry as well as amongst the poor), and its concomitant improvidence, intemperance; and feuds survive, Ireland will not bow her neck to the staff of the parish constable. She will require to be held with a strong, but, as far as Circumstances will allow, with a gentle, a forbearing, and a kind hand. The police institution, if it could - be separated, and kept apart from partial influences and local objects, contains a provision of mingled protection and restraint which is extremely well suited to the present condition of Ireland. It is stronger and more eXective—and it is necessary that it should be so—than the posse cowl lotus which, in ordinary cases, is found sufficient in our rural districts ; and it approaches more nearly to - a constitutional power than any other description of armed force that could be employed. Its machinery is excellent ; but the bad purposes to which, in corrupt and unworthy hands, it has been turned, con=stitute the main ground of popular dissatisfaction and distrust. If it had not been abused, and made subservient to the private and political views of itidividuals, or the ob jects of a party ; and if persons in its subordinate offices had not been _ countenanced and supported in violent conduct and insolent demeanour towards the people, men of all ranks, who are solicitous for the rights of property, and of personal freedom and se curity, would expect from such an establishment an effectual protection for those interests. They may expect it yet, when they see the institution re.- formed and ,placed under an amended system of management. Already a great improvement is mani fest.; and we shall look with confidence for the signs and proofs . of its continual progress, as long as Lord Mulgrave's spirit and juk ; ment, and Lord korpeth's abilities and moderation, are engaged to carry the 7 united and irit into ei-„ecution.

It pas the I-louse of Commons ; but the Ulmer Humse it out; and one of the objec tions stated aiy.iinst it was. that it contained a clause for detaching the police from any connection with secret or political societies. An' oath was to he taken by every per: , .on in the service, declaring that he did not then; nor would, belong to, any association of that character. It was a, perfectly fair and very mild pro vision ; for it did not propose to go back into the his tory of any man's past connections, but merely to re strict him with regard to the present and th It obliged those who might be Orangemen or Ribbon men, at the passing of that Bill, to renounce such confederacie•;, andkeep themelves disengaged for the future. Whether the Lords saw, in this particular clause, the seeds of a system at variance with their no tions of subjugating the wild Irish, or that they took offence at other parts of the Bill, they threw it out; and, Orangemen or Itibbonnicn, sic Dii volui;,re, may still abound in the ranks of the armed constabulary force of Ireland, for any means that Vernment . for detecting and removing them. The nurg of the police, therefore, of factious partisans and =icon . tents, is not so easily practicable as it would have ,-.been, had the -House of Lords suffered the test pro .eposed in Lord Morpeth's Bill to be adopted.

Civil liberty o both the empire itself, is sold ; O'Connell is the purchaser, the Whigs are vendors, of the purloined inheritance of the British nation. And let us here be. clearly understood ..as addressing ourselves not to- the hieliest order of minds, or of human motives, but studiously keeping the religious view of the question — we mean the contrast between rational faith and Andiously and rigorously out of sight. It is to the upright and intelligent. men of this world that - we appeal, the men who value their rights as citi zens, and who stand up for freedom of ward and action in what concerns mere political interests. It is such men that we urge, by all the gravest considerations that can influence them; to watch over the temporal well-being of themselves, their neighbours, and their children's children. It is such men that we' earnestly conjure to guard against the political system of the Irish Papists. It is one of despotism ; it is one of confiscation ; it is one of vengeance ; it is one of per fidy. Well are we reminded by our correspondents, fio:n day to day, that there is no trust to be reposed in the most solemn assunances of factious' Papists, wlicther they be ecclesiastics or in the garb of laymen. The extracts made three or four, days since from the evidence of Messrs. O'Connell and Sheil in 1825, when they were closely questioned by . a Committee of the House of Commons as to the effect of emancipa tion in tranquillizing the country,. and their repeated and anxious protestations, that it Would he impossible to rouse a spirit of disaffection in Ireland afterwards— the echo of the same testimony by the Popish Bishops who were examined at the - sanie time, and their circular letters immediately after the actual grant of the Catholic Eill,--4hese things are not merely shocking to the Protestant love of truth, and to the sense of honour and morality, but they are more useful still, as warnings to us for the future. Emanci pation was to be a peacemaker—it has failed ; Church Reform was to be . a peacemaker—it has also failed e they already threaten us, and the menace is not an empty Dne, with the extinction of the Church ; that again will fail ; there must be separation from Greatßritain—that too will fail, until it shall accom plish a political establishment of Popery, as supreme over all other .creeds—ay, and over all " mhgistracics, principalities, and powers." Next comes a resumption of , forfeited lands, as well Ecclesiastical as what had once belonged to Papists ; and, to crown all, an expatriation of every Protestant who shall have escaped a repetition of the classic butcheries of 1641 and 1798. Mind, we speak of Popery in its worldly and political aspect. The most atrocious fraud that ever was practiced is the attempt to foist itself into an alli ance with Constitutional freedom. It is plain, from the voluminous evidence which we have so often quoted, what sort of respect is shown by the priestly bullies for the rights of conscience, and for the civil privileges of their parishioners. How would Englishmen endure such grinding and disgusting despotism ?—one wherein every priest exhibits himself a Nicholas, and treats every layman like a Pole ? Yet these are the favoured instruments and acknowledged allies of the King of England's Ministers—these, the guardians of civil equality, and .religions peace in Ireland—these, unhappily, are indeed the rulers of a Protestant realm, and the dispensers both of justice and of favour, so long as the miserable faction in this country which leans upon them for support shall be left in the enjoy ment of that shadow of authority of which the subv• stance is in the hands of O'Connell and his Council of Ecclesiastics, but of which the name is alike dis graced by its nominal and itsactual possessors.— Times. We have seen a paper published by a Mr. Beau mont, which contains a correspondence between that gentleman and the Foreign Office, respecting the con finement of his brother in the prison of St. Pelagic. It appears from this correspondence, that Mr. Arthur James Beaumont has been confined, under circum stances of extraordinary rigour, --for the space of nine teen months, without having been tried, and, conse quently, without having been convicted of any offence. His health has been gradually sinking under this treatment, and, according to the account of his brother, consumption has already commenced its ravages upon his constitution. Unless something be done to miti gate the rigour of his confinement , - his life is, in the opinion of competent judges, likely to fall a sacrifice to the system which prevails under the Government of the Citizen-King. The precise nature of the charge against Mr. Beaumont does not seem to be very accurately known—at least it is not very accu rately described by our Minister, for Foreign Affairs, the following general terms. containing the only de scription given of it in the correspondence to which we refer :—" It appears that the French Government thought fit to arrest your brother in consequence of his being charged with being concerned in plots having for their obj ,, ct the subversion of the existing Govern- ment." But whatever the charge may be, there is something so abhorrent to humanity in the idea of putting a man to death by mere rigour,. without trial, that we hope the publicity which the case will acquire through the .exertions which Mr. Beaumont is now making in this country will prevent such a catastrophe from taking place. It need scarcely be impressed upon our Ambassador at the Court•of France, that every step should 'be taken to procure a relaxation of the se- Imerstition—: n to the Go- their Lordships' : interdict. When it can discover a partisanof either faction, he is instantly removed, and ...the people's arms are taken out of his hands. Ai 'though. the House of Lords would not pass a law. to "Make it impossible for the members of an illegal so ciety jo continue in the police, the Government is determined to give full effect, in every case which may, come to its knowledge, to the spirit of that law. When the affiliated member of a secret society is de . teeted in the police, he is uniformly to be removed : and this determination being known in the service, has ali'eady been productive of very salutary effects. An example of this was made last Week in lEathcormac, of all places-in Ireland the most proper for showing to the people that they are riot to be ruled henceforth by Orange bayonets. A sub-constable was "found to have in his possession a summons to attend a • monthly meeting of his lodge, " The Southern Derry Lodge, No. 658." The meeting was held some time ago in Bandon, the high quarters of Orangeism in the south of Ireland, where the map was then sta tioned. Very probably he had been initiated there under the auspices of the local Grand Master, the Earl of Bandon, who, as we yesterday: stated, is elected to be one of the Representative Peers of Ireland, and who, in his capacity of a resident Magistrate and Deputy-Lieutenant of the County, may, without any breach of charity, be supposed to use a considerable political influence over the police in his immediate jurisdiction. We pray our readers to keep -this circumstance in mind : the summons reqUired the policeman to attend a meeting of the Bandon Lodge, whereof the Earl of Bandon is the Grand Master. Inquiry having been made, it was found that the man was still an Orange man, nor had evinced the slightest disposition to dis connect himself with that Society ; and he has ac . cordingly been dismissed. We cannot too warmly applaud the prompt and vigorous conduct of Lord Mulgrave's Government on this and similar oceasions. It must lead to much good. But we hope to see a measure of equal justice dispensed to the Grand Mas ter of.the Lodge into which that wretched creature had been inveigled. Lord Mulgrave has gone a good way towards wiping away the stigma which a Tory Lord imprinted upon the character of Irish justice, that they have in that country "one law for the rich and ano ther for the poor." We think the case which Lord • Bandon has made against himself, to which we yes terday adverted, leaves the way very clear for the Lord Lieutenant, nor can we permit ourselves to doubt that he will see his way to walk in it "right on," as he is vont to walk.—Morning Chronicle. From many quarters of this country, and from per s ons who, until the eyes of their understandings were painfully opened, had been zealous supporters of that Government of which O'Connell is the head, but of which the clerks and journeymen take up their abode Downing-street,—from such persons, not long since :habitual advocates and followers of the Whig party, before it had sunk into a sordid and despicable faction, we have received very strong and numerous disavowals of all further confidence in the present Administration, :,and of determined resistance to its revolutionary s c ::lemes. If there were no other ground of reliance on the fact here deposed to than the honour of such informants, that alone would be sufficient for -cur own satisfaction„that the apparently smooth course of national acquiescence in those ruinous projects - which have been forced upon the Melbourne Cabinet, 4 ..,. -:the conditions of its retaining office, has received a fatal shock, arid will be superseded, promptly too, by symptpws of di7trust and defection. For the present, .on that poet we shall say no more. The few sceptics onehin,g,- the existence of a league, offensive and defen between O'Connell and the so-called Prime Mi *er and his colleagues, are far outnumbered by the Xiypoerites who make a pretence of doubting it, and a ;trade of defending their feigned incredulity by false- Loods, , ;!Ent the fact speaks for itself. Last year Oleimnell's whole leisure time—that is to say, while TILE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1835. verity complained of, not merely because it is opposed to our English notions of justice, but because it vio lates those feelings of humanity which are common to all Christian countries. No Government, even pre tending to be influenced by public opinion, can refuse to listen to remonstrances so obviousty just as these, which may be, and ought to be, and, we trust we may add, will be, urged by the representative of our Go vernment abroad against the barbarity of killing a man by the slow torture of an imprisonment too severe for his constitution to survive. We hope we shall not have to taunt the French Government and its admirers hereafter with the premature death of Mr. Beaumont, under circumstances which, whether warranted by the strict letter of the law or not, must be denounced by the general voice of mankind as cruel, arbitrary, and inhuman.—Morning Herald. ROLLS' COURT.-THURSDAY His Honour the MASTER. of the RoLLs gave judgment in the following cases : STICKNFY V. SEWELL. His HONOUR had looked at the evidence in this case with respect to the value of the security in 1815, and he was of opinion that the Master had come to a proper conclusion in making the executors liable. DOUGLAS V. LEAKE. His HoNouß said that this case came before the Court upon the construction of a codicil to the will of the late Hon. Charles Yorke, and it afforded another specimen that lawyers did net always succeed in making very intelligible the testator's disposition of his property. The testator, by his will, gave certain leasehold property to his wife for life, and afterwards directed it to be applied as the residue of his personal estate. The testator also charged his estates with an annuity of 6,001. per annum to his wife, and after her death a sum of 12,0001. was to be raised, which he be queathed, with the residue of his property, to his son, the plaintiff. On the Ist of May, 1838, the testator made a codicil, which, in effect, only altered the disposition of the sum of 12,0001. The following day the testator made another codicil in the following words :—" Codicil of pecu niary and specific legacies to be added to my will :—A II the rest and residue of my properly not hereinbefore, or by my will or by any other codicil disposed of, I give my nephew, Philip Yorke (the present Earl'of Hardwicke), and to the plaintiff." The question now for the decision of the Court was, whether this codicil acted as a revocation of the resi duary clause in the will in favour of the plaintiff ? Upon all the circumstances of the case he was of opinion that the plaintiff was entitled to the whole 'residue of the testator's property. The bill must be dismissed against the Earl of Hardwicke, tire usual accounts taken - against the executor, and the costs of all parties to be paid out of the estate. VICE-CHANCERY.-THURSDAY. KNIGHT V. PERRY. This was a motion upon notice for an injunction to re strain the defendant from infringing the plaintiff's patent for a new kind of steel pen. Mr. KNIGHT was heard at considerable length in support of the motion. . . . Mr. ROTCH was about to address the Court in opposi tion, when The VICE-CHANCELLOR, interrupting them, had great doubts whether be would be justified in granting the in junction. His Honour remarked his attention had been, last year particularly, called to many of these polysyllabic pens.—(Laughter.) And, as to the alleged invention, he doubted whether it could be called an invention at all. It seemed to be, in fact, nothing more than - the prOcess he had often practised himself of mollifying the rigid texture of a quill by paring and scraping it till it acquired the proper de gree of elasticity.—( laugh.) He would; therefore, give the Plaintiff liberty to.bring any action he might be advised, reserving the costs till the result of the action were known. KING'S BENCH.-THURSDAY. BROWN V. TAYLEURE. This was an action on a policy of insurance on a vessel called the Penrith; at and from her port of loading in North America, to her port of discharge in England. The vessel was launched in 1827 ; bat an accident happened to her, and she lay for a year in the river, when, by a very in genious process, she was floated and started on her voyage to England. She encountered some severe weather, be came leaky, and was ultimately lost. The circumstance of her lying in the river for a year after she was launched, but before she started on her voyage, was not communicated to the under-writers, and this was insisted on on their part as a concealment, which vitiated the policy.—Rule for a nonsUit absolu c. BAIL COURT-THURSDAY. NUGEE V. THORNE. An application was made to the Court in this case to en large the rule obtained for a peremptory undertaking until the sittings after Hilary Term. The ground for the appli cation was, that two men who, it was alleged, were material witnesses for the plaintiff, could not at present be fotind. DUFOUR V. COUNT D'ORSAY. In this case an application was made on the part of the defendant for a rule to show cause why the plaintiff, who is resident in France, should not give security for the costs of the action. Count D'Orsay had been arrested on the 19th of May, at the suit of the plaintiff,ed on the 4th of No vember the Count wrote to the attornies for the .plaintiff, Messrs. Lane and Co., serving them at the same time with a copy of tbe notice of motion which was then made on his behalf.—The Court granted a rule. COMMON PLEAS-THURSDAY• WILKS V. THE HUNGERFORD MARKET COMPANY. This was an action tried at the sittings in last'Trinity Term, when the plaintiff obtained a verdict for 301. It was brought to recover damages which the plaintiff sustained in his trade as a law-bookseller, by having a certain passage stopped up by the defendants for an unreasonable length of time. At the corner of Northumberland-passage, a portion of this particular line, the plaintiff kept a shop, and the line of way was much frequented by professional gentlemen going to the Courts of Law and Houses of Parliament. From April to July, 1833, the obstruction existed in this line of passage, and the plaintiff brought his action for the loss of his trade, and obtained 301. damages. Mr. Sergeant WILDE to-day supported a conditional or der to show cause why a new trial should not be had or the damages reduced. Mt. KELLY was heard on the other side. The COURT, while they discharged the rule, felt it their duty to reduce the damages from 301. to 20s. COURT OF REQUESTS, WESTMINSTER. HUGHES V. RAWLINS. In this case the defendant, a respectable solicitor of Sa lisbury-street, Strand, Secretary to a Conservative Club, and supporter of the claims of his party at the Westmin ster Registration, appeared to a summons taken out against him by,the plaintiff, a tailor, carrying on business in Duke street, Adelphi, to show cause why he refused or neglected to pay him the sum of one guinea, as compensation for his loss of time in attending before Mr. Craig, the Revising Barrister, at his Court, held in the Guildhall, his claim as a voter at the election of Members of Parliament for the city and liberty or borough of Westminster having been objected to by Mr. Rawlins. Mr. Hughes said that the defendant bad served a notice of objection on the overseers of the parish of St. Martin's in-the-Fields against his claim 'as a house and scot and lot voter. They had published his name as having been so objected to in their printed lists, which they had exhibited on the doors of the church. In consequence of which be attended the four first days of the registration, and on his claim on the scot and lot and house lists being called on by Mr. Craig, the defendant said he had no objection against the same, but had mistaken him for another party. His claim on both lists was consequently allowed. Mr. Rawlins should not advert to the merits of the case; but would contend that the Court could not entertain it. He would say that be bad not contracted a debt with the plaintiff. The Court might act as they pleased ; but he should retire. The COMMISSIONERS then divided on the question be fore them, when there appeared to be a majority of ten to three in favour of the plaintiff's claim and costs. The COURT granted the defendant a fortnight to dis charge the debt, as well as to allow him sufficient time to enter proceedings in a superior Court, to try the validity of their decision.

On Wednesday morning;, about 6 o'clock, a middle aged woman, residing with her brother in West Nicolson street, Edinburgh, was discovered inipaled on the iron spikes 'constituting the railing before the house. It is understopd that for some months previous the ,poor woman had shown symptoms of mental derangement ; and it is supposed that in a paroxysm of the disease, she had leaped out of her hed-room window, three stories from the ground, and alight ing upon the spikes - directly in the andomen, became trans fixed in the shOcking manner in which it was found.— Edinburgh Courant. POLICE IN TELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. Yesterday a respectably dressed young man, named James Guest, alias James Williams, was brought before Mr. MrNstruLL by Shackell, the gaoler, charged with steal ing a quantity of window-glass, the property of Mr. Richard Cobbett, of No. 9, Northumberland-street, Strand, in whose employment he had been as foreman. Mr. Flower, the Aolicitor, attended for the prisoner. The prosecutor, it appeared, is a plumber and glazier in a very extensive way of business, and has been for many years past employed on contract to perform the necessary repairs and alterations in his line at Hampton Court Palace and others of the Royal establishments. The prisoner acted as foreman at Hampton Court Palace, and it was his duty to send up to the warehouse for any materials that might be wanted. In this way several large packages of glass had been lately sent down to be used, it being his b4siness to furnish a correct account of what was used, and the quantity remaining on hand. On Saturday evening last Shackell, the officer was going through Red Lion square, when he met the prisoner with a very large basket well filled upon his shoulder. He was walking in a very hurried manner, and, suspecting something wrong, the offs. cer stopped him, and asked him what he had there, and, he said nothing but his tools. Shackell looked in the basket and saw a quantity of glass, upon which he said, " You have something else here besides tools." The pri soner replied, " My tools are at the bottom of the basket." "Shackell searched the basket, but it was entirely filled with glass, and no tools were to be found. When further ques tioned he said his name was James Williams, and that he lived in Little Gray's Inn-lane, both of which statements proved, upon inquiry, to be false ; and the officer ascer tained where he had been employed, and that he had come from Hampton Court that afternoon. The prisoner declined saying anything. Mr. Miran= asked what the character of the pri soner had been ? Mr. Cobbett said he bad been five years in his service, and had always been considered per fectly honest. Mr. Flower said that as the prisoner had until now borne a good character, and as there must be some diffi culty in identifying the glass, perhaps the worthy Magis trate would be disposed to act summarily instead of sending the case to a jury. Mr. Cobbett said he had no inclination to be too se ' vere upon the prisoner, and Mr. MINSHULL convicted him under the Police Act as a rogue and a vagabond, for hav ing stolen goods in his possession without lawful excuse , an committed him to hard labour in the House of Cor rection for two calendar months. UNION-HALL. Yesterday John Farrell, a ,man in sailor's clothes, was brought before Mr. WEDGWOOD, charged with biting a portion of a woman's ear off, and cutting her across the lower part of the thigh with a knife. Rose M'Carthy stated that as she was walking along Lyon-street, between twelve and one o'clock that morning, she saw the prisoner and a woman going along in the same direction. On passing them the woman made some impu dent remark respecting complainant's ear-rings, when the latter retorted by using some expressions of an offensive kind ; upon which the prisoner rushed at.her, struck her, and knocked her down. She managed to get upon her legs, when the prisoner again rushed upon her, seized her lefrear in his teeth, bit off the whole of the lower portion, the ring which was Suspended having also been torn away with the flesh.' M'Carthy, being a strong woman, endea voured to extricate herself, and in her struggles she saw a knife in her assailant's hands, and immediately cried out for help ; but before any assistance arrived she was again thrown on the ground with force s and became insensible. When taken to the station-house a surgeon was sent for, and after some time she revived, "and found that not only a great part of her ear had been bitten off, but that she had received a deep cut with a knife or some sharp instrument at the lower part of the right thigh. The complainant appeared to be in a very weakly state from loss of blood, and at the con clusion of her evidence she was taken to the hospital. Policeman Ruddeman of the P division stated that on hearing the cries of M'Carthy for help he ran to the spot, and saw her lying upon the ground groaning, and with the aid of his lantern saw that a portion of her ear was bitten off, together with the ring which was suspended from it. She stated that she had seen a knife in the prisoner's hand when he rushed at her a second time, and when the latter was taken into custody, on searching him a long sharp pointed clasp-knife, such as those used by the Portuguese sailors, was found in his pocket. The policeman added that he was not present when the outrage was committed, and was ignorant as to the cause of provocation in the first instance. , _ .................... It was stated that a gentleman who witnessed some part of the outrage as he was going home, was not in attendance, but that he would come forward if necessary. The pri soner was therefore remanded for further examination. At the Magistrates' meeting held at Market Rasen, on Monday last, Ruxton, licensed retailer of beer (not to be drunk on the premises), was convicted in the mitigated penalty of five pounds for selling two pints of beer, to be drunk on the premises ; and James York, of Market Rasen, sawyer, was convicted in a penalty, damages and costs amounting to lls. 7d., for stealing a quantity of tur nipi growing in a field in Market Rasen, occupied by Mr. James Beacock.—Lincoln Gazette.—[According to the above decision, the offence of selling two pints of porter excceeds the crime of theft in the proportion of 1 to 4.] The value of steam-impelled labour may be inferred from the following statement of facts, communicated to me by an eminent engineer educated in the school of Bolton and Watt :—A manufacturer in Manchester works a sixty horse Bolton and Watt's steam-engine, at a power of 120 horses during the day, and 90 horses during the night, thus extorting from it an impelling force three times greater than he contracted or paid for. One steam horse-power is equivalent to 33,0001135. avoirdupois, raised one foot high per minute ; but an animal horse-power is equivalent to only 22,000 lbs., raised one foot high per minute ; or, in other terms, to drag a canal-boat 222 feet per minute, with a force of 100 lbs. acting on a spring ; therefore a steam horse-power is equivalent in working efficiency to one living horse, and one-half the labour of another. But a horse can work at its full efficiency, only eight hours out of the twenty-four, whereas a steam-engine needs no period of repose ; and therefore, to make th animal power equal to the physical power, and a relay of one-and-a-half fresh horses must be found three times in the twenty-four hours, which amounts to four-and-a-half horses daily. Hence a common 60-horse steam-engine does the work of 41 times 60 horses, or of 270 horses. But the above sixty-horse steam-engine does one-half more work in 24 hours, or that of 405 living horses. The keep of a horse cannot be esti mated at less than Is. 2d. per day, and, therefore, that of 405 horses would be about 241. daily, or 7,5001. in a year of 313 days. As 80 lbs. of coals, or one bushel, will pro duce steam equivalent to the power of one horse in a steam engine during eight hours' work, sixty bushels, worth about 30s. at Manchester, will maintain a sixty-horse engine in fuel during eight effective hours ; and 200 bushels, worth 100 s., -the above hard-worked engine during 24 hours. Hence the expense per annum is 1,5651. sterling, being little more than one-fifth of that of living horses. As to prime cost and superintendence, the animal power would be greatly more expensive than the steam power.—Dr. Ure's Philosophy of Manufactures. DEPLORABLE DEATH FROM STARVATION.— Yesterday evening an inquest was held at the Guy Earl of Warwick, Belton-street, St. Giles's, before Mr. Stirling, on view of the body of Thomas Stoneman, aged 13, whose death was occasioned from want of the common necessaries o f life.—The Jury, on viewing the body of the deceased, e xpressed the utmost horror at its appearance, it being in so lamentable a state of emaciation, that the bones nearly protruded through the skin. The evidence was to the following effect : Susan Dupeare, a young girl about 16, of miserable appearance, and wretchedly clad, was in the habit of obtaining a bed at a lodging-house in Short's Gardens, St. Giles's, for which she paid threepence ; she saw the deceased for the first time about a week since, when he came to sleep at the house ; he was in a very miserable state ; he came for a bed on Tuesday night about twelve o'clock, when he seemed very exhausted ; witness slept in the next room, and during the night she heard moans from the room the deceased slept in ; in the morn ing witness told another young woman who slept with her, that she thought the deceased was very ill, as she had heard him moan during the night, and they agreed to go into the room where deceased slept, when they found him dead in bed ; witness informed the landlord, and a surgeon was sent for.—By the Jury : I believe there are about fifty or s i x ty beds made up in the house ; the rooms are very cold, and the kitchen, which is under ground, and contains six beds, is flagged with stones.—Several of the Jurors here stated that at former inquests on unhappy beings who had died in this lodging-house, they had opportunities of seeing its state and internal regulations ; it, was an abominably filthy hole, and a disgrace to the parish ; the beds were not fit for a dog to lie upon.—The Coroner here inquired if it was known what the deceased had been ?—Cole, the beadle, replied that he had been a clerk, had received a liberal edu cation, and was of respectable connections ; but owing to intemperate habits, had for some time before his death sunk to the condition he was in ; latteely he made a trifle occasionally by vending small cards of address, which he wrote himself in German text, and other fine characters.-- Mr. Buss, surgeon to the workhouse, was called in to Short's Gardens, and found the deceased dead ; there were no external marks of violence on the body ; death, no doubt, was caused by exhaustion.—A v er di c t was t h en re turned, " That the deceased's death was accelerated by neglect and want." THE ALDERMANIC GOWN OF ALDGATE WARD. Yesterday was the last day of the contest, and great were the exertions made by the friends of all the candidates. The popular candidate, if we may judge from the reception given to those who voted, was most decidedly Sheriff Sa lomons. Mr. Humphrey: had numerous supporters, but Mr. Jones had many enemies. The contest was one of a very remarkable kind. Every vote tendered was subjected to the most severe scrutiny. Objections were raised by Mr. Hill for Sheriff Salomons, by Mr. Clarkson for Mr. Humphrey, by Mr. Ryland for Mr. Jones, and by the Re corder, as assessor for the Lord Mayor. Indeed, so rigo rous was the examination of the candidates, that the idea of making a formal scrutiny was altogether abandoned by all the candidates, whatever might be the result of the conflict. At five o'clock, the LORD MAYOR, who has begun his Mayoralty career in the most giaceful and popular manner, rose amidst loud exclamations to announce the state of the poll. His Lordship stated, that he should make the formal announcement at one o'clock on the following day, when the candidates would have an opportunity of addressing the constituency. His Lordship then said that the numbers were as follow : Salomons Jones Humphrey _ 67 Immense cheerinc , followed this announcement, although it was known long before that the Sheriff won the battle. Sheriff SALOMONS rose to return thanks amidit clapping of hands, waving of hats, and the most deafening acclama tions. No good cause was ever yet advocated without ex citing considerable difference of opinion, and he had the greater reason to congratulate himself after the violent struggle made by his two honourable opponents.—(Cheers.) He should bid the meeting farewell, and meet them to re turn his hearty thanks on the following day. Mr. JONES rose amidst applause and hisses. He had come forward at the ardent solicitation of the Ward, against his will, and he did not regret that he was unsuccessful. He could not, however, omit to state that there was a re markable defeCtion upon the part of many whose support he calculated upon ; amongst them was Mr. Deputy Jackson, a coadjutor of his in the Court of Common Council, that gentleman, although 'a neighbour and colleague, had come forward at the conclusion of the day and voted not for him but for Sheriff Salomons.—(lmmense cheering and laugh ter.) He regretted to be obliged to state that a single in dividual (Mr. Chas. Pearson) contrived to possess himself of the power not only of making Sheriffs of whomsoever he pleased to elevate, but of placing in a 'Ward, with which he had no kind.of connexion, an Alderman to preside over the inhabitants.—(Loud clieering and laughter.) He repeated that he had not sought the honour, and he did not feel dis appointed.—(A cry of " Jones, I'm blest if you and Hum phery a'nt flummuxed," and roars of laughter.) Mr. HUMPHERY then addressed the meeting. He had in the course of the contest seen twenty men abandon him to support Mr. Jones, and sixteen to support Mr. Salomons. A trick had been played upon him, too, by which he had lost four or five votes. A forgery had been circulated amongst the electors, stcting that he had resigned in favour of Al:. Salomons. He, however, found no fault with the issue of the contest, and should bow to the decision in favour of Mr. • Salomons with the utmost good humour. With respect to the statement of Mr. Jones, that Mr. Charles Pearson bad made an Alderman in the Ward of Aldgate, he msut most positively deny the truth of that assertion.—(" Hear, hear," from Mr. C. Pearson.) Mr. Humphrey concluded by thanking the constituents for their support. It is necessary to state, that it was a well-known fact that Deputy Jackson had promised to vote for Mr. Salomons before Mr. Jones at all made his appearance, and the De puty did not see any reason to break his promise because Mr. Jones came into the field after a delay of nine days, solemnly asserting that he did not want to be an Alderman. The Wardmote adjourned till one o'clock this day. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S. - THE DERBY. 10 to 1 agst Mr. E.

A STRANGE STORY ABOUT A HORSE _ A WHICH WE ARE ASSURED IS AS TRUE AS IT IS STRAI";er Early in the present summer a highly respectable p 1 0 . 0 .8 in Louisville purchased sundry work-horses, and for e they went on well enough—eating and drinking and l i r e ing, as all decent horses generally do. At length te s t were brought in from the out-lying lands, and put to ` OO their dinner from the troughs in the poultry-yard ; an o r cocks and the hens, with their broods of chickens, vell t be turally assembled round the troughs to pick up villa:: " 0 .0 could catch.
