Marshall delivered judgment in the case of a series of actions against members of the Leeds police force, for having, in July last, unlaw fully arrested and impriSoned John Briggs, Rufus B s u s o o p t i n Solomon o f being im p Bartley, llca t e a n d d n G e o spo r lma g ce e e Dickinson, Daniel S co tt , Wi ll i am Ealam, George i A r i l o n a b rs m b e d a r e n i ne c s' h c oo s 11 - f watches which had recentlyt a k en ter. Mr. IV. P. Roberts, of Manchester, appeared for the plaintiffs, and the officers were represented by Mr. Bruce, barrister, of Leeds. His Honour, in delivering judgment, said there were several actions brought by Briggs and five or six other parties against George Ripley and several other policemen in Leeds, for arresting them on a charge of felony, and detaining them in prison for the space of nearly 24 hours ; and as that arrest had been made by the police without a magistrate's warrant, and upon a charge which certainly turned out to be utterly des titute of foundation, it was incumbent upon them to show that they had reasonable grounds for making it. The plaintiffs were all respectable men, and with the exception of two, who were licensed hawkers, were colliers, and all were resident in Leeds and the neighbourhood. Mr. Roberts,who appeared for them, had made some observation in which he did not at all agree, as to the impropriety of taking up these people without a warrant. It seemed to him quite impossible, as well as quite unusual, that the police should not arrest men until they had obtained the warrant of a magistrate. If that were so, the po lice, in his opinion, would be of little or no use whatever, particularly in large towns, because if when a policeman saw a thief and suspected him, he had to wait until he went to the town-hall and got a magistrate's warrant before arresting him, in all probability the thief would have gone away before he could come back. They all knew that it was the duty of the police to arrest all suspicious persons without any warrant at all ; that was the case in perhaps 19 out of every 20 arrests that took place; but the advantage of the warrant was that it took away from the police the risk of the arrest turning out to be erroneous. If they had no warrant, then any arrest that they made was at their own risk. As to the use of handcuffs in the case, he really did not see that there was any objection, if the police had a right to arrest them at all, to their being con veyed in the way proved in evidence, from the bottom of Briggate to the police-office ; and the same thing would apply to the use of a chain in se curing them. But, after a careful consideration of the evidence, he had come to the conclusion that theplaintiffs were entitled to a verdict—not because of the want of a warrant, or because there was unnecessary violence or other improper conduct on the part of the police towards them after they were taken into custody, but because he thought they never ought to have been arrested. There were no reasonable grounds to justify suspicion against them ; indeed he was quite per suaded that they never would have been taken into custody if it had not been that, just at that time, there was a sort of watch mania, if he might so call it, running in the minds of the police, in consequence of very recent and extensive watch robberies in Manchester, about which placards were extensively issued offering rewards of £5OO and £l,OOO. His Honour then proceeded to recapitulate the facts of the case. In noticing the conduct of the police, he said he thought they ought to have made inquiries respecting the men and the addresses they had given before they removed them in so disgraceful a man ner from the bottom of Briggate to the Town-hall. That that was done in a hasty and an improper manner was perfectly clear to him, more particularly from the circumstances under which the man Scott —who had no watch at all about him—was arrested. He saw no grounds of suspicion whatever against him, except that he might be suspected of being about to buy a watch which the police suspected had been stolen. That showed the hasty way in which the first policeman had acted in running off to the police-office ; and he must say that, when the plain tiffs were taken to the police-office, according to the evidence even of the policemen, they were dealt with in a very unusual, careless, and hasty manner—a manner, in fact, that he was quite sure the magis trates would not sanction if they knew of it. The police, although they had their addresses, had made no inquiries about them. Instead of keeping them all night, they might have gone and inquired whether Briggs had given his true address, and asked him whether he could not refer them to certain persons. It was their duty to have done so, for they had no reason whatever to suppose them dis honest persons. He was bound to say that a great deal of evidence had been given on the part of the police, utterly at variance with the statements made by the plaintiffs, and, after due consideration, he was bound to say that he thought, upon the whole, the statements made by the men were much more to be relied upon and much nearer the truth than some of the statements made by the police. (Applause in court, which was instantly checked). His Honour alluded to the case of one of the plaintiffs, who had denied that he had been searched after being taken to the police-office, whilst two officers had both said that he had been searched. In this instance, by means of the books kept at the police-office, he had been able to verify the man's statement. In other cases he considered that if the men had acted as the police alleged they had done they must have been arrant fools, for no thing could have been more absurd than for them to have done some of the things which, according to the evidence of the police, they had done. He confessed that he was staggered with some of the evidence given on the part of the police. In the case of the man Scott, who had never been searched whilst in the police-office, and who had his hawker's licence with him, he thought that the conduct of the police had been specially improper, and that if he had laid his damages much higher than he had done, any jury would have awarded him a considerable amount ; and the same might be said of one or two others. He quite agreed with Mr. Bruce, that it was to the interest of society that the police should have ample protection from the law in taking per sons into custody upon different charges. They must do so, however, in a cautious and in a proper manner. But, on the other hand, the interests of society equally required that the police officers should be made responsible for the exercise of their authority, when they acted without such care and circumspection as were required. He thought that they had done so in the present case. It appeared to him that they had exorcised their authority in an unwarrantable, a very hasty, and an erroneous man ner; therefore he thought that the plaintiffs were entitled to the damages they had sued for, viz., fist) guineas each, and the cost of their attorney. PRICE 4d. STAMPED sd. affecting the prisoner connecting him with a person named James Stephens. The first document to be produced was a letter addressed by James Stephens to the working B's, in which he stated that the year 18G5 would be the year of action, and that when the flag of the Irish Republic would bo raised. The second document was the letter of James Stephens urging the establishment of drill schools in Ireland ; the next was the document appointing the Ex ecutive Government in Ireland, in his absence from this country; another was a letter from Stephens stating that while in Cork he would be heard at Bryan Dillon's. It would be proved that Bryan Dillon and the prisoner had frequent communications together. The evidence of Warner was of a nature to require corroboration, but he (Col. Fox) might observe that in the civil courts Warner was corroborated in most of what he swore to, and in no instance was his evidence shown to be untrustworthy. It should be observed that by ono of the rules of the Brother hood no third person should be present when the Fenian oath should be administered, and therefore it was quite im possible to produce other evidence as to the enrolment into the society than -Warner, who had sworn him in, and the police had to use considerable influence with Warner to in duce him to give the information. Col. Fox concluded by saying that his duties as public prosecutor were made com paratively light by the circumstance that the prisoner was defended by an able counsel, Mr. Concannon, and by Mr. M. J. Collins, solicitor. He believed that Mr. Concannon had not yet arrived, and he wished to know if the prisoner was prepared to proceed with his trial. "The President— Does the prisoner wish the trial to be postponed until the arrival of your counsel ? "Prisoner—Not at present, Sir. "President—When you do, lot me know. " Pierce Nagle was then called and sworn by Col. Na- gent. He deposed to the existence of the Fenian Conspi racy, and as to his knowledge of James Stephens, and to Stephens being the Head Centre in Ireland. " The President hero read Stephens's letter to the work- ing B.'s in Clonmel. " The witness identified tho handwriting of the letter, which letter he and a printer named Neville took from a man named Power in the Irish People office. The witness identified the handwriting in the other documents as that of Stephens. He deposed to his knowledge of Thomas Clarke Luby as proprietor and sometimes editor of the Irish People." In times of public excitement, when people get a passion for firearms, it is hard to say who is safe. The most peaceably-disposed man, though he never quits his house or his business, cannot be sure in the morning that he will not come to a violent end before night. Poor Mr. Byers, the owner of a public house at Glasnevin, was quietly sitting in his par lour talking to a policeman off duty, when a car came rapidly to the door ; he heard the well-known voice of a customer ask a shilling to pay the fare, and in another minute or two a familiar friend stood beside him, pulled a revolver from his breast-pocket, and shot him, holding the pistol within six inches of his neck. The facts of this extraordinary case were stated before Mr. Stronge at the Capel-street Police office yesterday. The prisoner, Mr. Joseph T. Sut cliffe, a clerk in Balls' banking-house, seemed to be greatly depressed. He was defended by Mr. E. A. Ennis. The sword and revolver which the prisoner had with him at the time of the occurrence were in court, and also a bundle containing money, papers, and other matters found on him when he was searched. The following evidence was taken and embodied in the information of Mr. Rickards, one of the clerks of the police-court : John Tracy, 34 D, sworn—On Saturday evening, about 7 o'clock, I was in Mr. Byers's house at Prospect-avenue, Glasnevin. I was on duty at the time. I had been sitting in a small room behind the bar about 20 minutes when I heard the prisoner ask for a shilling. He afterwards came into the room where Mr. Byers and I were sitting. He had a sword-bayonet by his side. He said, " I have got the licence." He laid aside the sword, put his hand into his breast, and drew out a revolver pistol. Byers said, " Take care ; is that loaded ?" The prisoner said, " Upon my honour, it is not." He put it down to his side, then stretched forward his arm till the pistol was within six inches of Byers's neck. I did not see the prisoner cock the pistol, or hear it cocked. The prisoner discharged the pistol and Byers fell on his back wounded. The shot wounded him in the neck. Byers, falling, said, " Good God ! lam shot." I took possession of the sword-bayonet and seized the prisoner, who threw the pistol on a desk. After a little delay, I took the prisoner to the police barrack, which was close by. To Mr. Ennis--The prisoner was under the influence of drink. Ho made use of no threats or violent language. He appeared to be on friendly terms w;th Mr. Byers. I heard Mr. Byers himself say they were on friendly terms. There was no one present at the time but Byers and the prisoner. Brady, the car owner, said while driving along ho was shouting to two dogs that he had following the car. At the top of Eccles-street ho put his hand into his breast pocket, took out a pistol, and showed it to mo ; he put up the pistol again, and I drove Lim on to Byers'. He was to give mo ls. for the drive. He told me to come back for him about half-past 11 o'clock. When he reached Byers' he got off the car, and went into the house. In about five minutes I heard the report of a pistol shot from the interior of the house. I went inside. I saw Mr. Byers lying on the ground wounded, and the constable with a hold of Mr. Sut cliffe. With the assistance of another man, named Barney, I placed Byers on the car, and brought him to the Mater Misericordke Hospital. I saw that Byers was wounded in the side of the neck.

PROVIDENCE ROW R NIGHT REFUGE, FO HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN, 14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C. Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The D i l an ager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, and have to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £lOOO more will bo required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf. SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be gratefully received by the Rev. D. GILBERT, D.D., No. 22, Finsbury-circus, E.O. DONORS AND SUBSCRIBERS TO THE REFUGE.

Copies of the act passed on Saturday for the sus pension of the writ of habeas corpus in Ireland reached the Lord Lieutenant and the Chief Secre tary yesterday morning. There was a rapid migration of strangers from Dublin yesterday, and the familiar Yankee hat and beard, worn so proudly by embryo generals and owners of estates to be won by the sword in the dear old country, suddenly vanished. Those who ven tured to remain sacrificed their magnificent beards, and the barbers had some hours' hard work. Many of those arrested are from England, and belong to London, Greenwich, Sheffield, Oldham, Ashton-under-Lyne, Liverpool, and Hartlepool. Their names are Henry Gibbons, John Sheil, James O'Neal, Owen Bartley, John Hammond, Henry O'Connor, Henry Browne, John Mahon, Patrick Gill, John Browne, John Toohy, Bartholomew Kane, Francis Balle, Austin Maly, Thomas Con nolly, Thomas Lawless, Matthew Regan, Thomas Brien, Michael Green, Patrick Myles, Edward O'Shaughnessy, Thos. Tracy, Edward Drummond, Thomas M'Manus, and Thomas Whetston. In only one case has there been any resistance to the police. Among those arrested in Dublin the following were officers in the American army :—Capt. D. J. Mykins, 107th Regiment ; Capt. E. J. O'Doherty, aide-de-camp to General Owen. Two brothers named G-leeson, American officers, have been arrested at Borrisoleigh. They emigrated from that place about 15 years ago. Both joined the Federal army, and rose during the war, one to the rank of brigadier-general, and the other to that of captain. They have been about four months in this country, residing with their father. The evening papers contradict the statement which appeared in some of the morning journals that Mrs. Stephens, Mrs. Luby, and Mrs. O'Donovan had been arrested. Two persons, named Parker, father and son, arrested on Saturday, have been liberated. Among the places searched in Dublin was the publichouse, No. 1, William's-row, which was taken possession of by a party of the C division. A num ber of persons who were at the bar at the time were detained while the search was being made, but no arms, ammunition, or documents were found, but Mr. Cleary, the proprietor of the establishment, was arrested. A large and excited crowd assembled in the neighbourhood, and the police had much diffi culty in dispersing them ; and constable 44 C was knocked down, as it is stated, by a young man named Geoghan. The parties arrested have been lod ge d e ith er i n _ _ 'the Mountjoy Convict Prison, or at Kilmainham. It is said that the prisoners detained under the new act will be sent to Spike Island. The city is per fectly quiet. No person attending to his lawful busi ness is questioned by the police at any hour of the night. They have a quick eye for suspicious cha racters, and they do not trouble others. The strictness of the search for arms may be in ferred from the following cases : A man named Brophy, the keeper of a publichouse at 19, Phibsborough-road, was brought before Mr. Stronge at the Capel-street police-office yesterday, in custody of Inspector Harrington, charged with the illegal possession of a sword. Inspector Har rington said that he went into Mr. Brophy's shop and asked him had he any arms, on which the pri soner at once handed him a sword. The prisoner said he told the police some time ago that he had the sword, and he had expected them to call for it. Inspector Masterson confirmed the statement. Mr. Brophy was ordered to procure the bail of two householders to the extent of £25 each, and to give his own personal bail to the extent of £5O. He stated that his character was well known, and that he had the sword for no unlawful purpose. Mr. Ennis bore testimony to the character of Mr. Brophy. The bail was procured. Geo. Chambers was also brought before Mr. Stronge by Inspector Darcy, charged with the illegal possession of a Chinese dagger, at his residence, 3, Upper Mecklen burg-street, on Saturday last. Mr. Ennis, who appeared for the prisoner, handed in a letter dated in 1860, showing that the prisoner had received the dagger from his brother, a sergeant-major, who had been in China. He was ordered to procure simi lar bail to that required in the previous case. James R. Gorman, a blacksmith, from Carlow Grainge, was arrested last evening in Back-lane, where the police found 70 rifle cartridges, 141 b. weight of gunpowder, and a large quantity of ma chine-cut cartridge paper. He was conveyed to Mountjoy Prison. Shortly afterwards, as Police constable 67 A was passing down Patrict-street he was deliberately assaulted by a man named Martin Donelly; he was taken info custody for the assault, but after his arrest it was discovered that he was a person suspected of Fenianism, and he was trans mitted to Mountjoy Prison. During the night 37 prisoners, collected from various police stations, were removed to Mountjoy Prison, under an escort of the 10th Hussars. The police have been active in Cork and Queens town, but no arrests of importance have yet been made in either of those places or in the neighbour ing towns. At Waterford Joseph Heyland, of the Federal army, has been arrested on suspicion. A military court-martial was held in Cork yes terday. The following report of the proceedings has been furnished by the correspondent of the Daily Express:— "A general court-martial was held to-day (Monday), in Cork barracks, to inquire into charges preferred against Drum-major Farrell, 2d Regiment ; Sergeant Durrah, 2d Regiment ; Sergeant Butler, 32d Regiment ; and Private Conroy. The. following officers comprised the Court : Col. Shute, 4th Dragoon Guards, president ; Lieut.-Col. F. R. Main, 2d battalion Ist Foot; Major W. C. O'Brien, 73d ; Major J. C. Weir, Ist battalion 2d Foot; Major V. J. Bazalgette, 37th ; Capt. C. P. Teesdale, Ist battalion 11th Foot ; Capt. W. N. Waller, Royal Artillery ; Capt. Richard Maunsell, 2d battalion 11th Foot; Capt. J. C. T. Drako Ist battalion 2d Foot ; Capt. J. B. M'Kenzie, 2d battalion Ist Foot; Lieut. G. F. O'Grady, Ist battalion 2d Foot ; Lieut. G. A. Scott, Ist battalion 2d Foot; Ensign Joseph Pratt, 2d battalion Ist Foot ; Cornet John Chadwick, 4th Dragoon Guards. Sergeant Durrah was first put on his trial. Colonel Nugent, Deputy Judge-Advocate, read the charges against the prisoner, which were for having, in or about April, 1865, been guilty of mutinous conduct in not reporting an intended mutiny of her Majesty's forces which came to his knowledge ; and for having, in or about the same month, joined a treasonable and seditious con spiracy, having for its object the levying of war against the Queen. _ " Colonel Lane Fox, the prosecutor, then addressed the Court. lie said that the evidence would show that the prisoner was a friend of Bryan Dillon, at present confined in Pentonville ; that 'Warner, the informer, had sworn in the prisoner as a member of the Fenian Society ; that the prisoner had introduced J. J. Geary and J. Thomson into the sergeants' mess-room ; that he had seduced men in his regiment from their allegiance ; and that Geary had relied upon the prisoner to command the military - in case of a re volt. The prosecution was brought under the 3Gth article of the Articles of War, an extract from which stated that any officer or soldier who should join in any military or treason able conspiracy should, upon conviction, be liable to suffer death, or penal servitude for any term not exceeding five years, or any other sentence that a general court-martial should direct. Tho second charge brought the prisoner under the operation of the 104th article of the Articles of War. The mode of procedure on his part would be to prove the existence of the conspiracy. In so doing ho would follow the practice adopted in the civil courts in similar cases confining himself to the documentary evidence Mr. Ennis, on the part of the prisoner, said— The prisoner is most respectably connected, and he is surrounded here by a number of friends. Ho holds a most respectable situation. Every one who has heard the par ticulars of this melancholy case must be convinced that what occurred was through accident. No one regrets what hap pened more than the prisoner himself. He was on the most friendly terms with Mr. Byers. They never had a word of dispute, and the last thing the prisoner would do would be to injure Mr. Byers; and, as I have said, the whole affair was an accident. I would ask your worship, under the circumstances, to accept bail, which can be given to any amount. With respect to the arms in the prisoner's posses sion, ho had a licence to carry them. lam very happy to hear that Mr. Byers is improving; the account of his state is favourable, and if he was hero himself I dare say he would express his firm belief that it was an accident and nothing else, and that the prisoner never harboured the slightest intention of hurting or harming him. The case was remanded till to-day. Byers is said to be likely to recover. On Saturday night a guard, consisting of one captain, one ,subaltern, and 150 men of the Ist bat talion of the Bth Foot, was sent to Mountjoy Prison to do duty over the prisoners apprehended in various parts of the town and suburbs. The sth Dragoon Guards on Saturday night furnished several escorts to accompany the police in removing prisoners from the different police stations to Kilmainham and Mountjoy Prisons. The whole of the troops in garrison not on duty were confined to quarters and held in readiness to turn out at any moment during Saturday night, a portion of the cavalry being kept ready saddled ; and part of each regiment of in fantry were kept under arms the whole night, and during yesterday and last night each regiment kept in readiness an unusually strong inlying picket, and the number of sentinels in each barrack has been greatly increased. A reinforcement of 2,000 men to the army in this country is hourly expected from England, which will on arrival be despatched to :different parts of the country, mostly to the south, for conveying which express trains are in waiting at the King's -bridge terminus. At the Pigeon house and Magazine forts increased precautions have been taken, at the former in particular, no the fort day or nigh strangers being allowed into TUESDAY EVENING. Sixteen additional arrests wore made last night and to-day. 11.1‘Donnell, the Vice Head Centre, has been cap tured. Numerous arrests were made this morning i n Limerick and four in Cork. Yesterday ten persons were taken at Athlone and five at Trim. Au order was received yesterday at Athlone to despatch without delay 200 infantry to Galway.
