LAW INTELLIGENcE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Sept. 15. (Beforo Mr. Commissioner FANE.) JUDGMENT.—IN RE RICHARD JEWESSON. pleading to actions brought against him. It appeared that the insolvent's half-pay as a Rear-Admiral was 4561. a year, subject to the income-tax, and to 401. a year set aside under a former insolvency, in 1835. He had now a little better than 4001. a year to support himself, wife, a son, and a daughter. Twice he had been relieved from his debts—in 1835, and by the Court of Bank ruptcy in February, 1846. He now owed abut 1,7001., and said, on being pressed, that he could n.t set aside any portion of his half pay for the creditors. Among his present creditors were seventeen persons for wine, spirits, and beer. _ His HONOUR, in the course of an elaborate judgment, said I do not know that I was ever called upon to pro nounce a decision upon a certificate in which I was less satisfied with the investigation that had taken place than I am in this case, and I am of opinion that there has not been an impartial investigation in this case. It is quite evident that this is the bankrupt's fiat, worked by his agents for his purposes. Mr. Peddell is the solicitor who took out the fiat, and worked throughout, and he has long been the bankrupt's own attorney. As such ho lass brought and defended many actions for him, and I am sorry to be obliged to say that, in defending two of these actions most discreditable defences were used. In one, the bankrupt being sued by a northern banking company, on a bill of exchange, served on the 24th of November, 1847, a notice through Mr. Peddell on the banking company, that he had committed an act of bankruptcy, without specifying what the act was. The object of this notice a most dishonest one evidently was to terrify the banking company from proceeding at law, and yet not give them the means of proceeding in bankruptcy ; for, strange to say, that a trader informing his creditor that he has committed an act of bankruptcy, is not an act of bankruptcy. In another action, also, in 1847, the bankrupt, through Mr. Peddell, defended himself, by showing that a bill which he had accepted, dated Bombay, was drawn in London. In October, 1847, Mr. Peddell again appears taking an active part in furthering the bankrupt's views, for on the 9,th he prepared a bill of sale, conveying the whole of the bankrupt's furniture to a creditor for money lent Miss Lindo, to whom the bankrupt had addressed a let ter on the 9th of June preceding, in these words—" Miss Lindo is, by the bill of sale, professedly the owner of the furniture." Yet the bankrupt has bad the use of it ever since. Lastly, Mr. Peddell is the solicitor who attests the declaration of insolvency, signed by the bankrupt on the 28th of April, 184 S, and takes out the fiat against him. Then, who was the peti tioning creditor ? It was a Mr. Lane. But Mr, Lane was the indorsee from Mr. Peddell himself of a bill of exchange for 50/., which had been before indorsed by Jewesson to Peddell, and it is a remarkable circumstance that Lane swears that he gave Peddell the full sum of 501,, so that the transaction was not a transaction of discount. Under such circumstances, can it be doubted that Mr. Lane was the instrument of Mr. Peddell? Then who was the assignee chosen by the creditors ? It was the same Mr. Lane, and who were the creditors who chose him ? Mr. Lane, himself a small creditor for 461., and a creditor who voted by power of attorney, entrusted to Mr. Peddell, those who voted in the choice being creditors amounting to about 4001., out of a total debit against the bankrupt of about 8,0001. The whole management of the bankruptcy having thus fallen into the hands of Mr. Peddell, no proper inquiry has, in my opinion, been made. When, however, the bankrupt ap plied for his certificate, Mr. Lloyd;of Milk-street, opposed for two creditors. The first objection was, that the transfer of property to Miss Lindo was an unfair preference, and I are of opinion that it was. I have often laid it down that, as soon as one creditor takes legal proceedings against a bankrupt, the bank rupt is bound to examine the state of his affairs, and if he finds himself unable to meet his engagements, then to call his creditors together and lay his situation before them, and if they require him to sign a declaration of insolvency he is bound to do so, and he is not to struggle on, postponing the evil day and distributing his pro perty unfairly amongst his creditors. The bankrupt was sued by many of his creditors between July and Novem ber, and in answer to a question put by Mr. Lloyd, said, " I cannot say how often I was sued." It is clear, therefore, that he ought to have made himself bankrupt prior to October, when he transferred his property to Miss Lindo. Mr. Woofer was examined before me, and according to his evidence the bankrupt told Wooller that Jones was about getting judgment against him; but that he had got Mr. Peddell to secure his property in the bands of Miss Lindo, and he said, also, he wished he had employed another solicitor, because it would look suspicious, Peddell being Miss Lindo's solicitor. This, therefore, was an unfair preference. The other objec tion was, that the bankrupt had acted most unfairly towards Messrs. Benison and Co., the holders of a bill for 2481. odd, accepted by him. As to this, the facts were, that one Lamont (as we understood), with whom the bankrupt had had accommodation transactions, brought him a bill for acceptance, purporting to be drawn by Messrs. Hopkinson and Co., at Bombay, but being really drawn in London. This bill he accepted to en able Lamont to raise money upon it for their joint pur poses. The bill not being paid at maturity, Messrs. Beni son sued the bankrupt, and the latter defended himself by showing' that the bill was void, being really drawn in London. Even on the bankrupt's own statement I can not doubt that the bankrupt knew Thompson's hand writing, and that when he accepted the bill he knew he should have that defence to an action, which he after wards wickedly availed himself of. Then it was urged upon me that Mr. Lloyd, for an individual creditor, had no right to go into the case of Misers. Benison, one cre ditor not being allowed to take up the case of another ; and, as a general ru l e , I concur w i t h t h at pro position, because I think it is the duty of the assignees to take up the cases of indi vidual creditors ; but this rule is founded on the supposition that there are assignees, really and honestly acting for the creditors, to whom that duty may properly be entrusted; but here there are no assignees. I look upon the assignee and solicitor to the fiat in this case as the instruments to the bankrupt; and whenever I am satittled thuc such is the c ase I wifl accept from soy qaarter sue% information as will enable me to judge whether I can with propriety send back a bankrupt into the trading world with a certificate of good conduct. It was also said that if Messrs. Benison were here, they could not be heard; but I will never countenance such an argument, because it amounts to this, that- the very ruccess of the knavery precludes complaint. The Com missioner is bound to listen to proof that the bankrupt, hiLt calling himself a trader, issued his acceptance into th.: money market, with the full intention of pleading, when sued, that it was gool for nothing. I fear that I ought to refuse the certificate altogether, but I am so ua• wilting to inflict a punishment that is to last for life, that I have determined to take 'a miller course, ald in the hope that by reflection the bankrupt may satisfy himself that that which he may perhaps have deemed a com paratively innocent trick, was for all substantial pur pas ‘s little, if anything, short of theft, and may form better resolutions fur the future, I will go no further than to suspend his certificate for three years from this date, without protection, one year for not having made himself bankrupt before he transferred his property to Miss Linde, and two years for accepting the bill dated Bombay, knowing it to have been drawn in London, and pleading that fact as a defence to an action on the bill. Mr. Sargood represented several small creditors for debts incurred in the Queen's Prison since the insolvent petitioned the Court in July, 1847. He had remained in prison since that period, and as he could not be dis charged from debts contracted after the vesting order, he (Mr. Sargood) prayed that they might be struck out of the schedule. Mr. COOKE established in evidence that in the case of Messrs. Steele the costs of the action amounted to 37L, and in the action of Messrs. Brown and Redpath to 251. Mr. Bennett, the creditor, in person, stated that ho had the insolvent in prison in France. He was dis charged after thirteen months' confinement, and through the exertions of the Sisters of Charity. Some money had been paid. Ho was now ono of the detaining cre ditors for about 30/. The CHIEF COMMISSIONER, on the conclusion of the evidence, asked the insolvent several times whether he was disposed to set aside a portion of his income for his creditors ? The insolvent said he had a sick wife ; ho had not the means of setting anything aside. He was upwards of sixty years of age. CHIEF COMMISSIONER-Why, you have 400/ a year. I again ask you, will you do anything for your cre ditors? The insolvent declined to make any proposal; but after an intimation from his attorney, said he would give 201 a year. Mr. NICHOLS asked for permission for the case to stand over, and he would advise the insolvent to make a proposal. The case stood over, and an application was after wards made to dismiss the petition, the insolvent under- taking to file a new petition to include all his debts, and promised to make a proposal for his creditors; the amount was not stated. _ _ His HoNoUR consented to dismiss the petition, as he considered it would be for the benefit of the creditors. He told the insolvent that he belonged to a noble pro fession, the members of which were of straightforward and honest bearing. • "Do not," added the Learned Commissioner, " tarnish its lustre." The COURT decreed the dismissal of the petition on another being filed. (Before Mr. Commissioner HARRIS.) IN RE GODFREY YOUNG. This insolvent, who had been a collector of poor, church, and other rates, of St. Mary, Newington Butts, was opposed by Mr. Crouch, for a Mr. Pegg, and sup ported by Mr. Sargood. It appeared that the insolvent, who is now registrar of births, marriages, and deaths in the same parish, was a defaulter to some extent as a parish collector, and Mr. Pegg and Mr. Batellellor, his two sureties, had to pay upwards of 2001. Mr. Pegg was now a creditor for nearly 500/. The braid given by Mr. Pegg was not in court, and it was decided that the individual case could not be proved. An opposition was made by another creditor. Mr. Commissioner HARMS told the insolvent that had the evidence been complete he would have been re manded on the serious charge made against him. It was a case for the discretionary clause, and he remanded the insolvent for four calendar months. BLOOMSBURY COUNTY COURT, Sept. 15. CROUCH V. THE LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAIL WAY COMPANY. The plaintiff in this case was Mr. George Crouch, of Tudor-street, Whitefriars, who sought to recover from the London and North-Western Railway Company the sum of ss. 10d., which it was alleged had been over charged by that company for conveying a basket of small parcels from Sheffield to London. Mr. Dod appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Russell on behalf of the company. It appeared that many years ago the plaintiff's father opened an office in London for the conveyance of small parcels to distant parts of the country. The mode of transit then adopted was by the ordinary means of con veyance. The smaller parcels being collected together and placed in one large package, were forwarded to the agent in the country for his distribution to the parties to whom the goods were directed. The business having fallen into the hands of the plaintiff, he continued to carry it on in a similar manner, until the railways drove off all other means of conveyance on the road, and then the parcels were sent per rail. On the 7th of July a basket, containing small parcels, was delivered at the plaintiff's office, for which 83. 3d. was charged. To this he de murred, eying, that the amount he had previously paid for a package of the same weight was only 2 , 3. 5d., and he paid the full amount under protest, and his pre sent action was to recover back the sum alleged to be overpaid. For the defence, Mr. RUSSELL contended that there were many grounds upon which the plaintiff ought to be nonsuited ; one was, that the London and North- Western Railway Company were sued for what they ' never undertook to perform. They were alleged to have overcharged fur conveying a package from Sheffield to London, when the fact Ras, they never undertook to carry any goods from that place. The parties ,cho did were the North Midland Railway Company. It was elong their line that the goods were conveyed until they got to liuglty, and that company afterwards settled with the North-Western Company for running their vans and trucks on the remainder of the distance to Camden town. Another ground of nonsuit wao, that by the 7th Vie., cap. viii. sic. 64, the company had the power of charging fur the carriage of any small pared not exceed ing 500 lbs. any sum which they thought fit. On the 15th of July the company passed a resolution, that all "packed small parcels" should be charged Id. par lb. for 100 miles, and 14d. per lb. over that distance. The question, therefore, was, had the company the power to make the resolution; if so, the plaintiff must not find fault with the same. Mr. Cobby, superintendent of the parcels department of the North Midland Railway at Sheffield, said that the company were the only carriers known to the public in that town. A parcel sent there, to be delivered in Lon don, if unpaid, would bo debited to the North-Western, who would collect tho carriage for the same, and after wards settle with the North Midland Company. The Midland Company began to enforce the charge on the 15th of July. Kennett, of Saow-hill, was charged the same as Mr. Crouch. The JUDGE said that the question was one of consi derable public importance, and he would rather it had been tried in a higher court, He should order the plain tiff to be nonsuitt d, which would give him an opportu nity of trying the case in a superior court. The plaintiff was, accordingly, nonsuited. Suspended accordingly for three years, without pro tection. , IN RE PEDIGAL AND DRADEY. These bankrupts were wine-merchants, of Clcment's lane, and to-day applied for their certificates. Mr. Murray appeared to oppose, and Mr. Lawrence supported. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (13,Cure the ASSISTANT-JUDGE.) The Court sat yesterday at the Westminster Sessions• hours. somewhat lengthened ditcusiion took place, the re sult of which. Wa3, Jeannette Macdonald, alias Maria de Maria, alias Mary Bally, alias Ellen Smith, alias Ellen Johnson ; Sanderson Sanderson, alias Sanderson Herbert ; Mary Sanderson, alias Mary Sanderson Herbert, and Jane Morgan, were named in an indictment for keeping a house of ill-fame in the parish of St. Martin-in-the- Fields. Jeannette Macdonald was the only person that sur rendered for trial. Mr. Ballantine was for the prosecution, and Mr. Parry for the defendant. The house in question was situated in Oxsndon-street, near the Haymarket, and the defendant Jeannette Mac donald, better known as Maria do Monis, was the ma nager. This was proved by an old woman who was servant in the house. Mr.PARRY, in an energetic speech, denounced the system under which, at the present time, prosecutions were carried on. If a common informer complained to the parish authorities of any house they had to prose cute, and in the event of their declining, the informer could do it himself, and on a conviction of the parties, the informer became entitled to 101. This had the effect of making these prosecutions a trade, and a system of extortion, for in nine cases out of ten there were com promises made, and public justice was defeated. In the present case the parish authorities were the prosecutors, but why did they kingle out the woman at the bar? The defendant was neither manager nor proprietor of this house; she was a mere servant, and instead of being placed at a criminal bar, why did the authorities not look for the real offender—the landlord of the house, and inflict upon him the penalty which the law directed? There were those in London who lived in affluence, and maintained influential positions in society, who derived their oppulence from this source, and who secretly encouraged this degrading traffic. It was proved in this ease that the owner of the house realised about 141. a night, or something like 4,000/. a year. and yet the woman at the bar was to be the victim. He had advised her to plead guilty, know ing that if she did so she would be let off under recog nizances, and that if convicted she would be sent to the House of Correction; but her answer was that she was net guilty, and that rather than purchase her liberty by saying that she was guilty, she would submit to trans portation for life; she was not guilty, for she was only a servant of a more guilty person, and ought not to suffer for the crimes which another had committed. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The ASSISTANT-JUDGE said that the prisoner could, if she chose, disclose who was the real proprietor of this house, and who received the proceeds; if she gave this information, and assisted in the detection of the culprit, it would be taken into consideration. The sentence was that the defendant be imprisoned for the space of three months, with hard labour. John Adams pleaded Guilty to a similar charge. The defendant stated that he paid fifty guineas a month for the use of the house to a Mr. Flight, who knew the purposes for which the house was used. He (defendant) had nothing to do with the house now, as he had given up the key. Cooper, a policeman, in reply to the Bench, said that a man nam e d Gi nness was included in the indictment against the defendant. A Bench warrant had been ob tained against him at the instance of Mr. Le Breton, the INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Sept. 15. vestry-clerk of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields, whose gave it to witness to execute.

His Hu:comt granted the bankrupts their certificates. IN RE THOMPSON. This bankrupt was an attorney at Northampton, and about three years since applied to this Court fur his cer tificate, which was absolutely refused. An application was recently made to the Court to re , consider its judgment, and the Learned Commissioner then deferred saying anything upon the matter, by way of a final decision, until he had looked into the matter. His HoNona to-day said that he considered this to be a very gross case, and a great quantity of affidavits had been banded in by the bankrupt to rebut the charges made against him, but his Honour did not think that they touched the point in question, excepting one; but yet, he (Mr. Commissioner Fane) mutt refuse the appli cation. IN RE JOHN GIBBS. This bankrupt, a boot and shoemaker, of Lewes, Sus sex, came up on the balance-sheet, prepared by Mr. Glover, Bucklersbury, to pass his last examination. The balance-sheet shows a total of 1,1361. Neither the assignees nor creditors opposed, and the bankrupt passed. The bankrupt then applied to have a day name] for his certificate. His HoNoun said that ho must arrange with Mr. Com missioner Shepherd's diary as to the date, and desired the bankrupt to tell that Learned Commissioner that he (Mr. Commissioner Fane) was perfectly satisfied with the accounts.—Passed accordingly. IN RE BLAKE. This bankrupt, a builder, at West Cowes, came up to pass his last examination. Ur. Duncan appeared to oppose, and Mr. Lucas sup ported. The main ground of objection was, concealment of property, including a horse and cart. After some inquiry, Mr. DUNCAN assented to the bankrupt's being allowed to pass; and lila HONOUR, in passing the bankrupt, said that he would not allow the bankrupt to have a day named for his certificate unless he gave up the property in question ---a horse and two carts. After the lapse of some time, Mr. Luces said that the bankrupt could not get the tra, perty. hut h e was w illi ng t o go t o hi s f r i en d s an d ge t of the official hwas the value of them, and pay into the hands The assignee. Re co nditions were agreed to, and the 6th of No 'ember w as named for the certificate. This bankru IN RE RUSH . for his certifiers% an extensive cattle salesman, applied Mr. DErsco who the bankrupt, o'n the appeared for th e ass i gnees , oppose d , the improper of re c kl ess tra di ng, the ab sence of a b oo k m proper contraction o f a d e bt, an d hiving dist r ib uted his prop er t y i n which way he pleased, instead of having period. come to thi s court at a much earlier His HONOUR said that on the last occasio n h e went very fully into th e case, and was of opinion that the bank rupt bad been actu a t e d by temper, and had a c t e d indis creetly, but that he was the t cir cumstances, and had n o t acted lof unfortunate di s hon estly , there co u ld be no doubt. Under all the circums tanc es of the case the Court felt bound to grant the ce r tifi cate forthwith. , The Court rose at half-past five o'clock. The'ASSISTANT-JUDGE said that such proceedings were disgraceful; he wondered how it was that Mr. Le Bre ton allowed his clerks to make such a compromise. If the parish took up cases on public grounds, why did they abandon them and defeat the ends of justice, by letting the parties escape, by paying the costs? As to the other part of the matter, he bad no doubt that warrants were held back to enable the parties to compromise; but the Court would not in any way sanction such a monstrous system; In future, affidavits of the most stringent na ture would be required by the Court, and such affi davits should show distinctly that there was no trickery of any kind attempted. This was the first time this house had been indicted, and he would order the defend ant to be liberated on entering into recognizances to ap pear for judgment if called upon, which signified that he would not be called upon if he refrained from such a course of life, and did not open this house or any other for similar purposes; but if he or any body connected with this house opened another, a severe punishment would follow. George Hockley, John Jones, and Edward Wilkinson, were indicted under the 6th lause of the Act for the Prevention of Dog-stealing, better known as Bishop's Act, from its having been obtained mainly through the exertions of Mr. Bishop, the gunsmith, in Bond-street, for a misdemeanour, in having wilfully and corruptly , taken and received the sum of 61., to aid in the restora tion of three Cuba bloodhounds, of the value of 3001., which had beon stolen, being the property of Lord Alex ander Russell. Mr. BODKIN appeared on behalf of the prosecution, and applied to have the trial postponed, on the ground that the principal witness, who was one of the noble pro secutor's grooms, was compelled to be in attendance upon his Lordship in Scotland. Mr. Sergeant ADAMS granted the application, and fixed the case for the October Sessions. As this was the first prosecution under this clause, a great number of sporting gentlemen were present who seemed anxious to hear the details. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Edward Allgood Dickenson, of 27, Denmark row, Cold Harbour-lane, Camberwell, was again brought up on the charge of obtaining a bill of exchange for 3001., under false and fraudulent pretences, on the 18th of Au gust last. The evidence , taken on the last occasion went to show that Mr. Tracy, a lieutenant in the navy, entrusted a bill for 3001. to a commission agent named Lawless, to get cashed for him, and also handed to him 100 shares in the Callington Mining Company, in Cornwall, as a collateral security to the individual who advanced the money. This agent gave it to the prisoner to get cashed, and he placed it in the hands of a person named Clark. Mr. Traoy having received a letter from the secretary of the Mutual Communication Society, thought proper to stop the payment of the bill, and at once demanded its restoration. Dickinson gave an order for Clark to de liver up the bill and!shares, but he declined doing so, in consequence of which the prosecutor gave the prisoner into custody, and, after a lengthened examination, he was remanded. Lieutenant Tracy now said that he was exceedingly obliged, and, in full, much indebted to Alderman Challis for the attention he had paid to the case, and begged to say there was no occasion to go farther into the inquiry, as the bill and shares had been returned to him; but he thought it right to inform him that the person's name who refused to give up the bill was not Clark, but Clarkson; and that he had an office, although the pri soner denied that he knew where to find him. Alderman FAREEROTItER, who sat with Alderman Challis, said that he would advise all gentlemen who wished to raise money, not to have anything to do with advertising agents, who were not worth one shilling; but as soon as they obtained a bill appropriated it to their own purposes, and the owner never received a farthing; on the contrary, he was the loser. He hoped that next session of Parliament, as hanging was out of fashion, they would pass a Bill to transport such persons, and thus put down a system which was disgraceful to any country and to the public at large. He also was of opinion that it would be better for gentlemen to apply to their bankers or solicitors, instead of employing any agent. Lieutenant Tracy said, for the future he should take the Alderman's advice. The prisoner said, he was not in the habit of dis counting bills, and that he had taken every precaution he thought necessary. Both Aldermen FAREBROTHER, and CHALLIS thought the less ho said about the transaction the better, and ho was discharged. James Watkins, residing at No. 2, Maidenhead-court, St. Thomas Apostle, was placed at the bar charged with assaulting his wife. Ann Watkins, the wife, said that for a long time she had been subjected to great ill-treatment from her hus band, by his only allowing her three parts of a half quartern loaf fur herself and four children, with 41bs. of patatoes, and occasionally a little tea, to last them the whole day. He never allowed them any meat, and be cause she applied to the parish for relief, to save her self and children from starving, her husband beat her anal knocked her about most cruelly. Alderman FAREHROTHER—And did he give you that black eye and face that you have ? The wife—He did. The prisoner, throughout the evidence, bad a con tinual grin on his face, and at tome parts of it began laughing, when _ _ Alderman FAnzanoTnza said he would find it no laughing matter, for he intended to sce what was the severest punishment he could inflict upon him. He wished to know what his wages were. The wife replied, a guinea per week. The prisoner said that when his wife had his money she paid no cue, and ran in debt everywhere. Tile wife denied this, and it was evident, from her wretched appearance, that she had for a long time been ill-treated. Alderman 1'111E111:OTHER, said it appeared to him that he was one of those profligate men who married a woman, got tired of her, starved her, and ill-treated her into the bargain, and therefore he should remand him for the purpose of seeing how far the law could punish him for his cruel behaviour towards his wife, whom he had sworn to love and cherish. lie was then removed from the bar. CLEI?KENWELL Michael Mahoney, a labouring man, was placed at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged by Mary Mahoney, his wife, with having stabbed with intent to murder her. The prosecutrix, whose head and arm were cut and wounded, deposed that she lived with the prisoner in Bell's -court, Gray's Inn-lane. On Thursday afternoon she left home with her sister, and on their return they had a quarrel, when the prisoner seize,) a clog, with which he commenced beating them about th e h ea d s , ti e . in an unmerciful manner, and wounded them ; they de funded themselves as well as they were able, and endea voured to escape from the room, but the prisoner snatched up a pair of tyro-tongs, and after belabouring them violently with them, seiz d an oyster knife, and making a stab at the prosecutrix, inflicted a severe wound on her wrist. She bled profusely, and was taken to the hospital, where her wounds were dressed. Ellen Keefe, the sister, corroborated this evidence. An officer of G division heard the cries of " Mur der," and took the prisoner into custody. The prisoner denied the charge, saying that the pro secutrix cut herself with some glass, having broken a window. Mr. TYRWUITT, under the circumstances, remanded ;he prisoner. SOUTHWARK. Richard LetchJord, a policeman of the M or South wark division, was placed at the bar before Mr.Cotting ham on the following charge:— Maria Eaton, a young woman of 18, stated that she came up from Mailing, in Kent, on the preceding day, and that on her road, about 11 o'clock at night, she met the prisoner, and, being a stranger, and seeing he was a policeman from his dress, inquired the way to London bridge. He asked her where she came from? and when she told him, he said that he would show her a house where she could stay all night. He then led her from the main road into a garden, saying, that that was the nearest way, and when they had got some distance he began to pull her about, when she rebuked him, and said she would rather walk the road all night than that he should act in that manner towards her. He, however, the threw her on the ground, and forced her to submit t o hi s over h violence,er mouth . and wh e n T s h h e e screamedcom plcomplainant aonutt here placedede scribed his particulars of the outrage, 13y which it_appeared that a capital offence had been perpetrated. She went on to re late that he afterwards gave her a shilling, which she ac cepted, having no other money; and on leaving her he desired her to tell any policeman she met that he was not the person who ill-used her. The prisoner then walked off, and she proceeded back to the road which she had previously left, and another policeman stopped her and inquired if she was the woman whose screams for help he had heard a short time before, and asked if a po liceman had not been with her? She at first denied it, but afterwards told the truth as to what had happened, when she was taken to the station-house, and pointed out the prisoner as the man by whom she had been vio lated. In answer to the Magistrate's questions the com plainant said, that her parents were poor people in Kent, and that she came up to town to try and get some em ployment. Sho admitted that she took the money from the prisoner after ho had ill-used her, and promised not to say anything about it to another policeman. Sergeant Clerk, 8 M, stated that about eleven o'clock the preceding night he missed the prisoner off his beat in the Kent-road, near the canal-bridge, and while he was looking for him he heard the cries of a woman proceed from a place called Mercer's-gardens, near Gully-quay. He listened for a while, and again heard a shriek, and he then went towards the spot, and met the young girl coming from that direction. He stopped her, and asked her if it was she who had screamed out ? She at first hesitated, and when he desired her to tell the truth she informed him of the outrage that had been perpetrated on her, and said it was done by a policeman. He then made her accom pany him to point out the offender, whom she said she should know again, and he took her to two policemen on the adjoining beats, and when she saw them she said that they were not the men. Tho prisoner was still missing from his beat, and the sergeant found that a short time ago he had gone off duty, leaving word that he was ill, and had gone to bed at the station-house. The complainant was then taken to the station-house, and the prisoner, who had a few minutes previously retired to rest, was called up, and when he got down stairs be fore the inspector (Frond) the complainant identified him as the man by whom she had been assaulted. The prisoner said, the compUinant was mistaken in his identity, and that he never saw her until he was called out of bed at the station-house. He accounted for going off duty the night before from sudden indisposition. The Magistrate eulogised the conduct of the sergeant for acting with vigour in the business, and ordered that the depositions should be taken, and the prisoner COM witted fkm LAMBETH. Mary Ann West was finally examined before the Hon. G. C. Norton, on a charge of having caused the death of her mother, Elizabeth Shields, by personal violence. The brief facts of the case are these :—The deceased occupied an apartment in the New Cut, Lambeth, for three weeks preceding the quarrel which led to her death, and, during that time, she was scarcely sober for one hour. Some of the witnesses said she got drunk as often as three or four times a :day on rum, and, as soon as she had slept away the effects of one debauch, she commenced another. On Wednesday, the 30th of last month, the deceased and the prisoner had a violent quarrel, the former having accused the latter of having robbed her of 101., and, when the landlady came down stairs, she found their hands tangled in each other's hair, and the de ceased, in falling, drew the prisoner on the top of her. The mother was found to have received a severe wound on the back part of the head. Her face was much con tused, and both her eyes blackened. The police were called in, and the prisoner given into custody by the de ceased. On the following day the parties appeared at this court, when the prisoner was ordered to find bail to keep the peace towards her mother. The mother, how ever never recovered from the injuries she received, and died on the morning of Thursday week. The following is the medical evidence in the case : Mr. Michael Keating'O'Shea, surgeon, in Mount street, deposed that on the 4th inst. he was called in to see the deceased, and found her face and right temple bruised. Erysipelas had commenced then, and it continued until the 7th inst., when she died. He made a post morlem ex amination next day, and found marks ou the eyes and right temple, corresponding with the external bruises he had before spoken of. He also found a triangular wound on the back part of the head, communicating with a cavity under the scalp, caused by a blow. There were traces of effusion of serum under the scalp, which might have been the result of erysipelas. The witness was of opinion, from the examinations before and after death, that the deceased was a person of drunken habits, but he thought the immediate cause of death was the violence she received . She was suffering from delirium tremens when witness was first called in, and that might have caused her death, for her frame exhibited the appearance of a person of drunken habits. He thought her death was accelerated by the violence she received; but he was firmly of opinion that death would have ensued from the amount of violence received if the deceased bad been in a healthy state. Tho wound on the back of the head he thought more likely to have been inflicted with a brick than by a fall on the step which had been shown to him. The appearance at the back of the head might be accounted for first by a blow from a brick, and subsequently by a fall on the step. He considered that there was not a sufficient amount of delirium tremens to cause death alone separated from any other cause. Martha Foster, a little girl of nine year s o f age , de posed that on the evening of the 30th ult. she saw the prisoner throw half a brick at the back part of deceased's head immediately before the quarrel before spoken of; and, Sarah Cross, another witness, swore to having seen the prisoner strike the deceased repeatedly in the passage. . The prisoner, who offered• nothing in defence, was fully committed to Newgate to take her trial at the ensuing sessions on a charge of manslaughter. THAMES. James Furlong, a well-known and desperate thief, was brought up on remand charged with being concerned with a woman named Julia Lennard, who was com mitted for trial on Saturday last, in committing a daring highway robbery on Mr. W. Ebblewhite. The prisoner said he was quite innocent of any parti cipation in the highway robbery, and never saw Mr. Ebblewhite. Mr. BALLANTINE said, he should send the prisoner before a jury, and committed him for trial as an accessory after the fact. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE OF FRIDAY. DOWNING-STREE T, SEPT. 15, 1848.

The average price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, computed from the returns made in the week ending September 14 1848, is 235. 44d. per cwt. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. I (From the London New Price Current of Sept. 15.) SUGAR.— To-day a further depression took place in quotations of both Colonial and Foreign Sugar, as large parcels were pressed for sale. In West India a good business was concluded, but at low and irregular rates, and refiners were again the chief operators. The quantity sold was 650 hogsheads, &c. At auction 4 hogsheads, 71 tierces, and 70 barrels of St. Vincent's crystalliz , :d went at low rates; yellow at 36s to 40s, good 42s to 445, and low brown 32s to 33s per cwt. The total quantity of Sugar sold for the week is 2,760 hhds, &c.; the decline in prices during that time amounts to is per cwt, and the market closes with a quiet ap pearance. REFINED —To day there was much dulness in the home trade refined market, and prices are further de pressed, standard lumps selling at 50s, and brown gro cery 49a per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar is much wanted, but quotations do not advance. MAURITIUS. —This afternoon the demand was not more active for Mauritius Sugar, and 2,154 bags at auction went 6d cheaper, but nearly the whole sold—fine brown 33s to 33s 6d, good 32s 6d, low 28s to 29s 6d, ordinary yellow 34s to 34s 6d, middling 35s to 35s 6d, good 36s to 375, fine grey 37s to 37s 6J, washed 29s to 36s 6:1, and syrupy 29s to 363. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal Sugar met with a dull demand, and 62 cases 1,720 bags at auction went upon lower terms by Is per cat, fine white Benares 42s 6d to 43s 6d, good 40s to 40s 61, low 38s, damp and washed 38s to 435, middling sound yellow 35s to 35s 6i; low was taken in at 335, and good damp brown 295 to 30s. Of Penang 288 pkgs were offered, and taken in, low soft damp greyish yellow at 333. Of 297 pkgs Ceylon, a part only sold, middling greyish yellow at 34s to 34s 6d, low 333, damn and washed 323 to 34s per cwt. FOREIGN. —This afternoon little desire was shown to do business in Foreign Sugar by private treaty, and 166 hhds 121 barrels and 9 trcs of Porto Rico at auction went is per cwt cheaper; fine yellow soli at 39s 61 to 41s, good 375 6d to 393, middling 36s 6d• to 375, low 35s 6d to 36s per cwt. MOLASSES.—Few sales have been made by private treaty, and sellers are disposed to accept rather lower rates. At auction 100 puns of old West India were taken in at 15s per cwt; finest now will not fetch above 18s 6d. The stock is still much smaller than last year. Bengal Treacle is held for 15s to 16s, but few buyers are to be met with. COFFEE.— On the part of holders of Jamaica there is more firmness, and they have scantily supplied the mar ket this week. For inferior kinds few buyers are to be met with; still full rates are insisted upon. The sorts above low middling, however, met with more attention, and realized stiffer rates; of fine the quantity at market is trifling. At auction 40 casks, &c. Jamaica, consisting of low to fine ord, were only in part disposed of at 24s to 32s per cwt. The public sales of Coffee declared to I take place next week consist of 1,500 barrels washed Rio, 160 trcs, 340 brls, 100 bags Jamaica, 400 bags Company's Java, 3,000 bags Costa Rica, 1,000 bags, 90 casks Plantation Ceylon, and 100 bags Native. To-day there was no public sale, whereas few purchases were made privately by exporters or home trade buyers. In prices there was scarcely any variation. TEA.--In consequence of large arrivals of Green, buyers have manifested little desire to do business this week, and sellers are inclined to accept rather lower rates. For Black there is a firm market, still the demand is not so good in consequence of the parcels come to hand, but sound common Congou is hold for 8d to Bid, and good common 9d to 9id per lb. Public sales will take place next week. Coccu.—For West India the market looks firm, and little has been offered at public sale. Purchases to a fair extent hare been made by private treaty upon fully for mer terms, red fetching 39s to 445, and grey 38s to 42s per cwt. There are still few buyers of Foreign, and 305 to 34s is the value according to quality. RlCE.—Today there was no public sale of Eest India Rice, whilst privately scarcely any demand existed, and prides are little better than nominal; middling and good white Bengal can be obtained at 115 to 12s 6d, fine 13s to 13s 6d. SALTPETRE.—British refined is much wanted and an advance in the value is apparent, sales having been made at 29s 6d to 305 per cwt, at which there aro not willing sellers. Refiners have many orders on hand, and there is an enlarged consumption. Holders of rough show much firmness, and have refrained from submitting any to public sale this week. On the part of exporters and home trade buyers much desire is evinced to operate in all sorts, whilst the rates paid are fully equal to those previously current. For Nitrate of Soda quotations remain at 13s to 13s 6d per cwt, and at which several parcels have been sold. SPIRITS.—For Leeward Island Rum the market has a dull appearance, and prices tend downwards, the sales for the week do not exceed 150 puns at Is 7d to is 8d proof, at which there is a desire to realize. East India is little wanted, and for 50 hhds is 6d have been ac cepted proof with certificate. In Jamaica few purchases have been made for home trade purposes, whilst export orders are trifling, and quotations tend downwards. The value of 21 to 28 per cent. over proof is 3s to 3s 3d, 30 to 38 over mid and good qi 4d to 3s 9d, fine 3s 10d to 4s 3d, and choice marks 4s 4d to 45 6d. For Demerara the market is dull, and sellers are dis posed to accept 25 2d to 2s 7d for 24 to 38 per cent over proof, and 2s 8d to 2s 9d for one. Prices are well kept up for Brandy, and there is a good trade doing chiefly for home consumption • deliveri es also exceed arrivals. We quo t e Cognac best brands of the vintage of 1846 at 45 10d to ss, ditto 1847, at 3s 10d to 4s, inferior 2s 6d to 3s 7d, and Bordeaux 2s to 25 6d. Geneva is selling at 2s to 2s ld for expor tation, and fine for duty at 2s 9d to 35 6d per gallon; there is still only a small stock. For British made Spirits there is yet much fi rmness i n the market, and trade is brisk. SPICES.—To-day at auction 954 pockets and 20 bags Bengal Ginger sold at advanced rates—good bold export sort at 24s 6d to 25s 6d, mid 22s 6,1 to 23*. and da maged 22s to 23s 6d ; 1 chest of Mace ; sound 2s Si ; 2 ch es t s N utmegs, mid brown 25 8d to 25 9d, wormy 6d to is 8d ; 5 bags white Pepper, good 44d per lb. COCHINEAL.—Orders are getting larger for all sorts, and holders are less disposed to realize; by private treaty several parcels have been sold upon full terms. At auction 69 bags were disposed of. INDIGO.---For public competition on Tuesday the 14th of October the quantity of East India declared is now 8,283 chests, and the inspection has commenced. There is firmness in the market ; and a fair home and export demand exist at prices rather above those of the last quarterly auctions. Spanish is held for fully last week's rates. At auction 140 serons Gultealala were disposed of at 26 to 3s 9d for tortes and Sobres. Lear.—The demand fa Cum* has Ina Tory limited this week, and prices are rather easier, and rule at 34s to 393. Since our last we have had five cargoes of New Valencia Raisins. The price opened at 455, at which prices they still continue. The grocers buy very sparingly, just sufficient to supply their immediate wants. New Sultana Raisins are Selling slowly at 755. Figs 84s to 90s. TALLOW.—This afternoon the public sales of Tallow went off briskly, and at stiffer rates; 133 casks Odessa sold at 46s Gd to 46s 9d; 1,146 packages South Ameri can 45s to 46s 3d; 576 casks New South \Vales 43s 9d to 47s 3d; 101. casks P. Y. Candlo 46s to 46s 3d, second sort 45s 3d to 45s 9d; 41 casks of Soap 42s 3d to 44s 9d per cwt. OILS —This afternoon, at auction, 191 casks Palm Oil sold at 29s to 30s 6d for mid to good, and 131 packages Cocoa Nut 39s 6d to 40s 6d per cwt. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FLOM TIM MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TlMES.—There is really a great deal of interest to be acquired iu the seizing of California, just taken by the United States. We mean that there is something very amusing in the spectacle of the most inquisitive and tenacious people in the world turned loose into a huge, mysterious, unexplored region. It is something beyond Denon and his brother savants in Egypt, and is almost equivalent to a meeting of the British Association in Japan, with the free run of the islands. It is certain that at this moment no human being of Caucasian ex traction has any conception of what may be discoverable on the ten degrees of the globe's surface between the Rio del Norte and the North Pacific Ocean, and it is almost as certain that in two years' time there will be a railroad right across the province, and boarding-houses at every station. It is something in these dull times to have a real true terra incognita in store, with Americans for adventurers. The truth is, that the Colorado beats the Oxus:hollow, for there was a time when Bactriana was a civilized and accessible region enough, whereas there is no certainty that the spot of ground indicated by lat. 36, long. 112, was ever trodden by any foot but that of an Indian horse-stealer. We say no certainty, because there is mystery in the highest degree attached to this country. A blue book, stamped with all the authority of a Parliamentary warrant, positively states that " independent nations, living in large to ens, and known only by report," are presumed to exist within the old domains of Mexico, and, as none such turned up the other day during the forays between Santa F 6 and Vera Cruz, we must conclude they lie somewhere hereabouts, if anywhere. The mystery of the reports is quite charm ing. The existence of the cities in question is not exactly so well ascertained as was that ofParadise by Sir J. Mande ville, who, " had not indeed reached the spot, but had seen the walls thereof ;" it bears rather a stronger ana logy to that of El Dorado, of which some Indians told Raleigh's sailors that they had once seen the reflection in a lake. Seriously, though, there is actually an enor mous indefinite area to be explored, and fifty thousand adventurers ready to rout and ransack every corner of it, like the undertakers at the drawers and cupboards in Hogarth's picture of the Dead Miser. Perhaps our readers would like to learn something of the known state of California, as a point de depart from which to venture into those interesting details which will no doubt reachlus by every American mail. Under the old Spa nish monarchy, Upper, or New California, was one of three provinces composing the Viceroyalty of New Spain. Its settlement, however, was limited to the establish ment of some 18 or 20 " missions" along the coast, which were :dedicated to the various saints whose titles still survive between Francisco and Diego, and which were calculated, with a precision and certainty attain able by none but Spaniards, to render the coloniz stion of the country altogether an impossibility. San Diego, the southernmost of these, and the point where the new American frontier will debouch upon the Pacific, was founded in 1769, before which year there was no Euro • peen settlement upon the coast. Between this period and 1800 were founded the others, all on the same model, and all running the same course. The aspect of these presidios was not materially varied under the rule of the emancipated Republic. When Captain Wilkes landed at San Francisco. he found, at the chief ancho rage of this noble port, a " town," of which the consti tuent elements are thus enumerated :—" A large frame house occupied by an agent of the Hudson's Bay Company ; a store kept by an American ; billiard-room and bar ; a poop-cabin of a ship, occupied as a dwelling by an Anglo-American captain; a blacksmith's shop, and some outbuildings." As this is decidedly the most famous colony on the coast it would be rather perverting the proverb to say "Expede Herezdcm," but we may probably save ourselves the trouble of describing San Carlos, or Santa Barbara, or La Purissima Concepcion. In these delightful settle-. ments resides the present white population of the pro vince, numbering perhaps about 3.000 souls, and some 9,000 or 10,000 Indians, as it is calculated, roam abroad in the mysterious wilds of the interior. The whites are true sons of Old Spain, with everything of a Castilian but his bravery. But for the presence of certain English and Americans, the Indians would infallibly drive them into the sea. After calm observation and mature re flection, Captain Wilkes is compelled to pronounce that " they may be termed cruel to their wives, in a greater degree still to their slaves and cattle, and exceedingly ignorant of everything but extortion, riding horses, and catching bullocks." A true Yankee graft upon this valuable stock must yield a wonderful result, and we shall not be long before we see it. We describ. d lately the precautions which have been so promptly taken to bring the new territory safely under hand, and it ap pears that the work of discovery has already commenced. At present the great attraction seems rather in the bowels of the earth than on its surface, and hundreds of independent citizens are at work with their pickaxes, like treasure-seekers in the Hartz Mountains. Quick silver is the main object of search, and we are told, in a semieofficial and perfectly serious report, of one mine, about 13 miles from San Francisco, "so rich that the gentleman who surveyed it under the directions of the Government was so much affected by salivation, that his mouth was sore fur a period of ten days after he had concluded the survey." It is anticipated that quicksilver will thus be an article of as regular exporta tion from the western, as breadstutfs from the eastern coasts of the States; several mining companies are al ready established, and California is even now spoken of by Transatlantic journalists in that phrase which so at tracted Mr. Martin Chuzzlewit, as "one of the most re markable provinces of our country, sir." We should rather conceive doubts from the configuration of this part of the continent, whether the mineral wealth so characteristic of the great spinal plateau of Anahuac did in reality extend so far beyond its termination as to be met with in North California. But, like the young farmers in the fable, who dug for a treasure and dis covered it in the enrichment of their farm, which had followed upon the labour bestowed, the Americans will no doubt find their account in the improvement and civilization of this hitherto unproductive country. With a territory, at least in places, highly fruitful, a climate free from the noxiousness of the opposite coast, and a temperature not otherwise than equable, they can hardly fail of a return for their labour, and, if they do not dis cover any new Peru, or any fresh variety of the human race, they will at least make a vast tract of the earth's surface subservient to the increasing wants of man. CHRONICLE.—The debate on the "Right to Work" pursues its dreary course in the French National As sembly—" a social, political, philosophic, metaphysical question," as M. Thiers justly termed it—" dragging at each remove a lengthened chain," the fetters of panic and misery, absence of demand, and indigence of employ ment, which, concurrently with this waste of words, are gnawing at the vitals, and festering in the life-blood of the people. " The saddest sight under the sun," said poor Burns, who spoke from experience, "is a man wil ling to work, but unable to find work." The problem, which in its solution shall find the remedy of this, we believe inevitable, evil in the courses of civilization, is as old as the world ; and it will scarcely, we fear, be deter mined in our time by the different schools of Commu nism among our neighbours. " Supposing that we affirm this right," said M. Duvergier de Hauraune, " and in a time of crisis one million, or, if you pre fer it, five hundred thousand workmen come with this article of the constitution in their hands to exact of you their dues of work and wages, when the coffers of the State be empty, increased taxes shall bring no return, and credit shall be dead, what will you do?" The answer has not yet been given by the Communists, nor will it ever be so, because it is impossible. It can, however, be evaded and ignored, and the Reforms' be very funny in calling M. Duvergier de Uauranne a " seedy Quaker with a perpetual catarrh." The chief incidents of the debate, hitherto, have been the failure of M. Ledru Rollin, and the success of M. Thiers. Triumph and discomfiture were, however, the conditions of their relative positions. M. Ledru Rollin was called upon, in virtue of his advanced opinions, to propose something, and he proposed nothing; how should he? M. Thiers was at liberty to criticise, analyse, expose, dissect, scarify, mangle the crotchets of his unequal oppouents, and he acquitted himself to the delight of spectators unaccustomed to skill so dexterous and assurance so inveterate. If, however, this is M. Thiers's speech for the Presidency (he has made many a discours- Ministre far better), we must confess our disappoint pointment. lie said nothing in particulars, which had not previously been said by MM. de Tocqueville and Duvergier de Huranne ; and nothing in generals, which is not ABCto us in England. Nor was he so felicitous in his hits as usual ; he made no point half so good as his lieutenant's, M. Duvergier de Hauranne, who, in re flection on M. do Lamartine's magnificent flight "that he adored p ro p er ty," remar k e d demurely, " that it was quite pos s ibl e no t t o respect where one adored. "M. Thiers's position, that the right to work necessarily in volves, and in its development leads to, slavery, is taken mediately from the Abbi Lammennais, and immedi ately from M. de Tocqueville. It is the plai n t teaching e o d s r t r e i a b s u o t n i 0 . n olff lathe a h b e u S r a i t t e b i e s o m t oe tak ieounpeoen, and ipso facto, arbitrary and absolute. It regulates at will, or at caprice, the fitness, the capacity, the condi tion, the fortune, the remuneration of its citizens. The State is master, and its component parts are slaves; it is a Mahoniet Ali, in a nation of fellahs. With what ani mation, hope, impulse, incentive, can you expect men under such circumstances to work? " Tell a person," says M. Thiers finely, "to die for his coun i tr l y , c o o e u e i u n d t e r r ie t , will understand you; but tell him to w eave cotton yarn and h for his you cuoiullntrayee, worhatfohregewiilrlonansfworer.,h,s of this illustration is its suggestiveness ,it carries one, by no remote transition, t o that . objection to Communism which is instinctive ilnuubsisaldl upon theindividualityman.t t three de jeosi---ogPyrwopoeurltdyit aliveibdeorntyeajdustEas well, in opposition Competition. Any o p t r h in e e r ip tr i to the " Liberty, Fraternity, Elope, and of the new older ones, whom M. Thiers hatesope, and Charity," of much. But the observations. and despises quite as which h text, if tritee,o hangs upon each are not without their voice. In rererence to his first principle of property (on which his new bopk is the press, this speech serving at Quo as its puff and preface), he showed that improvement is ' invariably 1 0 proportion to the more or less of respect in whiSb d ue institution has been held. He cited the East, D s s ease in point, in a remarkable passage:—" You will ling ther e cultivation neglected and abandoned to the carrot slaves, because it is the most exposed to the rapacity of despots ism? You will fi n d tra d e pre f erred, b ecause i t ca n the most easily hide it s elf f rom t h e i nqu i s i t i on o f tyrannYt personal property, go ld, j ewe l s,. movea bl es, t h ese things belong to comm erce: you see t h ese va l ua bl es in the hands of a prosc r ib e d race, who avenge themselves —• do you know how? By usury. On the otber hand, where p ro p ert y i s respecte d , an d r pricei _ are regulated at th e i r l eg i t i mate rate, l an d r ecovers its natural value, no industry is preferred more thin MP other—all are alike pract'sed according to their repulse' rative worth, interest falls, and the proscribed race, re instated in its original di gn i ty , b ecomes on a p a r /s o ° all the others." In his definition of liberty, M. Tbiel, is as bold in his zeal for the status quo. "By liberty, he says , " I do not mean p o li t i ca l, b u t soc i a l liberty' that of disposing one's faculties as one likes, of devoting_ one's energies to agri cu lt ure , manu f acture , m ining, 8; it may be; in one word, of choosing one's profession Society says to a man, You are free, work ; work at your own risk and peril ; it d e p en d s on your i e lf, if yOll work with application and ability, whether you shall be rich or otherwise.'" We remember the Duke of Wel' lington, in the Houselof Lords, saying much the slur ° thing a few years ego, and being greatly abused in the facile cant of phrase-ridden Librals. It requires such scenes as France has tra ve r se d to e d uce trut h s, an d to feel their value. Tile third proposition of M. 'Thiers, that one of the - safeguards of.moderst Society is competition, is fe' Millar-se:eats inerbis ebuilify. The industrial facts, too, (which he arrays agaiat that sentimental pessimiso still in vogue); .he shows the great end.daill airgrisenting amelioration in the condition of the masse s , have been entertain e d by a ll t hi n ki ng po li t i c i an s 10 England since the days of Arthur Young and Adige Smith. " A maid of honour," says Sir F. Y. FAA " breakfasted on roast beef, but the ploughman so those good old times, as they are called, could, I fee' only banquet on the strength s of water gruel." Such is the course and the tenor of M. Thiers's argument contrasting the demand and the wages of the preses day with those of fifty years ago. Let us, howeret hope, that as M. Thiers has at last become sensible to the virtues of competition, he intends for the future to abjure those P ro t ec ti on i s t h eres i es, i n v i n di cat i on o' , which he has vied in sophism with Mr. Disraeli, and i 0 audacity with Lord George Bentinck. ADVERTISER.—PubIic attention is beginning to turned to the approaching State trials in Ireland. They will be of a much more serious character than the Stew trials which took place in Dublin in 1843.- Whe ll O'Connell and his seven associates were arraigned at thl, instance of Government. the ch a r ge was on l y one 0' sedition, and consequently, in the event of conviction the punishment could not, at the worst, extend beyon d a temporary imprisonment and a fine. The pasties ee' cused were not only safe, so far as their necks were soy, cerned, but they had not even to fear a seven yea° transportation. It is otherwise with the unfortuset e men who are now about to be put on their trials Tbef f are to be arraigned on the charge of high treason. convicted they will be amenable to the extreme penalty; and, in any case, cannot receive a less severe punish ment than transportation for lif e . I t m i g h t b e su pper that, under circumstances of so grave a nature, the soners, their agents and their friends, would all look for: ward to the proceedings at the trial with that seriousne ss of mind and manner which becomes the solemn occasi° It would seem, however, that this is not the case, 1 . ,, e far as some of the parties are concerne d . It Wear that the agents of Mr. Smith O'B r i en h ave actua lly soli; swotted Lord John Russell to give evidence on the gentleman's trial. This must h ave b een done b y w ay of joke, for every one knows that the Prime Minister l e i no evidence to give in connexi on w i t h the cr i mes with which Mr. Smith O'Brien is charged. All we can sel o is, that it is a wretched joke. It wou ld b e i mposs ible 1., imagine anything in worse taste. Whether or not has directly emanated from Mr. Smith O'Brien, f, have no means of knowing; bat it must at all Wel have received his sancti on . Th e c i rcumstance w ill n et be lost on the public mi n d. I t w i ll greatly diminish, "0 not entirely extinguish, w h atever sympathy may Ileld been felt for that gentl eman . If he is just now dispose , to regard the position in which he is placed as a legitio!„l-1 one for jocularity, he w ill c h ange his mind before On weeks have elapsed. This indecent levity is not °calf to Mr. Smith O'Brien, though it has not, in the case any of the other prisoners, manifested itself in the sae' way. Mr. Duffy is described as taking a special °P light in playing at b a ll i n pr i son, whenever any : is present, and affecting to be as light-hearted e' if he were a s i m pl e - m i n d e d thoughtless boy, f u ll of .v spirits, and havin g no id ea b eyond that of how be in'y most abundantly gratify his propensity for Palti a)e i Mr. Meagher, we are told, alternately whistled, hutsts% to himself some brok e n notes of a song, and smoked hie cigar, while the process of reading over the indicts/Os' against him was goi ng on . N ow all this mu " bo affected. It cannot be rea l. I t i s not i n accor dasea with human n a tu re . It i s i n d ecent as well as assumed' Men of truly philosophic minds would, in similar cit . cumstances, scorn to demean themselves in this mantle!: It has its origin in the same idea which leads a convict at the bar of the Old Bailey, when sentence of transpor t tation has been passed upon him, to express a hope the' the judge may remain in his seat until he returns tc England, after his " term " has expired. Real fortitud e is dignified in its demeanour. It comports itself with calmness, and challenges admiration for its unobtrir siveness. So far from there being real courage i n the conduct of the three prisoners whose names we have mentiornals - their demeanour indicates the existence and operation of the oppo s it e f ee li ng. They remind us O' the schoolboy of Dr. Blair, who is described as whist' ling to keep his courage up" when passing through till churchyard on his way home on a dark night. *IP' regard to the subf (cueing of Lord John Russell, sot only is the thing c a l c ul a t e d to d epr i ve M r. Stst O'Brien of that measure of sympathy which, with all hts talcs and crimes, many persons would still have felt disposed to accord to him, but it throws an air of die , respect around the judicial ben c h w hi ch every one rays' witness with regret. It will not only prove an infinit e annoyance to the Prime Minister, but a grave trifiiog with the eacrulnees of justice. And yet, so far as w e know, there is no way of preventing Mr. Smith O'Bijen' or whatever other party the id ea or i g i nated w i th, frost ~ gratifying his miserable taste. Lord J o h n must o b e y ti lommoosjust as any other person. Though it is wellkeel to all parties connected with th e j u di c i al proceedings, t,bsils the Noble Lord has no evid ence to g i ve which can affeet result of the trial one way or other, no one has the PO . " to release him from the obligations which the Jae; it; poses upon him to be present. It would be impossih*; to conceive a greater ab use o f the right to call what; t witnesses an accu se d p arty p l eases than is furnished.r this case. The subject is one which may, possibly, me ; mend the attention of the Legislature before the et c of the coming session. If so, it is to be hoped 1 % Parliament will not run to the other extreme. Ther e :, a danger of thi s . N othing is more common than to the abuse of a right or privilege urged as an argument why that rigfit should be entirely done away with , ° t the privile ge a l together withdrawn. We do not expe ct any such r esu l t i n the case in question ; but we are 0 ; without our apprehensions, that should the Legislato r ; take up the question, it may, in its anxiety to prove >' b e i ng ca ll ed to give evidence who notarial/4o have none to give, enable persons to absent themselv e from trials in cour t s o f j ust i ce, whose evidence may ~ of essential importance to the case of the prisoners. Mr. Dunkin - Hayes had an interview with Pr l Grey yesterday, at the Colonial-office.
