f• • LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, June 3. (Sitting in Banco.) ,lON r. Tar LONDON AND CBOYDON RAILWAY COMPANY. r THESIGER moved in this case to rescind an urdet to the Master to review his taxation of the plaintiff's costs. It may be remembered that the defendants obtained a rule ni si for a new trial, on the ground *at the damages (5000 awarded by the jury were excessive. When cause was shown against that role the Court was equally divided, and so the rule dropped, and no judgment was given thereon. It appears that the Master in taxing the costs had allowed three counsel for the plaintiff at the trial, and had also allowed him the costs of the dropped rule. The question was, whether the Learned Baron had taken a correct view in the order in question. As to the first point, it was submitted that the number of counsel was one purely for the discretion of the Taxing Master, subject no doubt to be overruled by the Court if it should appear to have been grossly abused, and that there was nothing in the present case for the exercise of any revision by the Court. Then as to the costs of the rule, it was contended that they had been well allowed to the plaintiff, for if the rule had been made absolute it could only have been on the condition of costs, and, a fortiori, the plaintiff ought to have his costs when no judgment was given by the Court. The COURT, however, entertained a different opi nion. The costs would be given to the plaintiff if the rule had been successful as the price of that suc cess ; but if the rule failed by reason of the division of the Court, the clear practice was to treat the matter as if it had never been mooted at all. The order therefore for the review of the taxation was at all events correct in that respect, and it would not be rescinded ; but as to the first point the feeling of the Court was certainly that the matter was for the dis cretion of the Master. The case would therefore go back to the Master, coupled with the expression of these views on these points, and he would exercise his discretion anew with reference thereto no doubt. Rule refused. ARCHES' COURT, June 3. (Before Sir H. J. FUST.) GORHAM (CLERK) v. THE BISHOP OF EXETER. This was an application to the Court to decree a monition to issue under its seal to the Lord Bishop of xeter, to show cause why he refused to admit the Itev. George Cornelius Gorham to the vicarage and parish church of Bramfordspeke, in the county of Devon, diocese of Exeter, and province of Canterbury, vacant by the death of the late incumbent, Mr. Gorham having been duly presented to the vacant vicarage by her Majesty, the true and undoubted patron thereof. The QUEEN'S ADVOCATE, by whom the motion was made, stated that in the month of February .last ap plication was made by Mr. Gorham to the Bishop of Exeter to institute him into t he vicarage, and upon the Ist of March his L ordshi p signified his re fusal to admit him. This was a very uncommon proceeding, a similar one no t havin g occurred within the recollection of the olde st practitioner in the in court. It appeared to him , how ev er, to be exactly in con formity with the directions laid down books of practice, and also with time 95th canon, which required that before any clergyman who might be refused in stitution should be allowed a " double quarrel," he should make oath that he had called upon the Bishop to institute him upon the production of his presenta tion, and that twenty-eight days had since elapsed. Mr. Gorham had made the necessary affidavit. The mode of proceeding was stated by Oughton in titles 157 and 158. It was impossible to cite a pre cedent, inasmuch as no one had any recollection of a similar case ; hut the directions of Oughton seemed tolerably precise. In a MS. book of precedents—by whom written could not be ascertained, th(,ugh it was said to have belonged to the late Dr. Swabey—there was a copy of a monition. The Learned JUDGE directed the motion to stand over dintil the next session, in order that further search might be made as to the mode of proceeding. THE OFFICE OF THE JUDGE PROMOTED BY FREELAND V NEALE. In this case, Mr. Neale, the warden of Sackville College, East Grinstead, and the minister of a chapel there, officiated with other clergymen in administer ing the holy sacrament without being duly licensed in holy orders, or the chapel being consecrated by the bishop. The bishop had interdicted him from per forming the service, but he still continued to read prayers and preach in defiance of such injunctions. In consequence, he was brought before this Court. Drs. Addams and R. Phillimore argued the case, calling upon the Court to pass censure upon the rev. gerldeman, and dwelt upon the case of Barnes v. Shaw in the diocese of Exeter. The CIE:ZEN'S ADTOCLTZ, with whom wasDr.Bay ford, contended that Mr. Neale acted merely in a private capacity, and that the members of the college formed one family, therefore he was not open to the censure of the Court ; and further, that noblemen and others had private chapels in their mansions in which not only prayers were read, but the sacrament was administered. The Learned JUDGE considered there were in stances where clergymen might perform the Church service without the license of the bishop, but in the case of peers they were privileged to appoint a cer tain number of chaplains. In this case he (the Learned Judge) felt the reverend gentleman had fallen under the censure of the Court ; he had been guilty of an ecclesiastical offence for preaching with >ut the license of the bishop, and that he should be admonished and abstain for the future, both from preaching and administering the sacrament without the license of the bishop. The costa also must be borne by him. THE othcs OP THII JUDGE PROMOTED BT BROOKS THE it was in his power to prove that the prisoner had given an account of the transaction in which he had received the two notes different fr om that which he had given at the banking-house in which he kept his accounts, and in which he bad not stated the n,me and the person from whom he had received them. Mr. Ballantine said that the prisoner bad never deviated from the statement he had made, and that he bad stated at the banking-house that he had received them from a Mr. Green. Mr. Goodman, upon being requested to look at the depositions, examined his book, and said the name of "Green" did not appear upon the depositions of Mr. Kingsford on the first examination. Mr. Kingsford was again called ani cross-exa mined—He said he understood the prisoner to say that a certain person whom he designated was amongst those with him at the races en the occasion of the wager. Mr. Ballantine—Did he say further that he did not know who the party was, but that his name was Green ?—The witness said he felt some difficulty in the matter, as the conversation was merely a casual one. He understood him to say, in that conversation concerning the notes, that he had received them at Epsom Races on the Derby day ; that he betted with a party there who was in a respectable carriage, and that the bet was 2 to 1 on Surplice, the favou rite ; that these two 1,0001. notes wer e received by him from the party he made the bet with ; that the men were strangers to him, and he did not know them ; and to the best of his (Mr . Kingsford's) belief he said that the notes were indorse d by the party in the carriage with whom he betted. th ß e a d ll a a t n e ti o n f e th h e as a • know the Mr. Marshall, the Bank for the payment of th e notes, i p n p g l application o t f ha N t i r he . C wis hed t t o chief cashier at the Bank, was sent for. Mr. Marshall stated that, on Friday, the 26th of May, the two notes in question were brought to him to the Bank by Mr. Child, w ho, he believed, called to explain the way in which the prisoner became pos sessed of them. Mr. Ballantine--The Bank refused to pay them ? Sir. Marshall replied that the establishment no doubt under the circumstances refused. Mr. Ballantine—Did you know at the time that an action had been commenced against the Bank ,by the prisoner for having refused to pay the notes ? Mr. Marshall —I don't know it at this moment. Mr. Ballantine—l know it is a fact. Mr. Arthur Marsh Tapp, ledger keeper at the Southwark branch of the London and Westminster Bank, said—On the 26th of May I went to the pri soner's house, and saw him, between eight and nine o'clock in the evening. I told him that the two 1,000/. notes he had paid into the London and West minster Bank had been refused payment at the Bank of England. He asked the reason why. I said be cause they had been stolen. I told him that as we had paid a large cheque on the notes he had paid in, we required him to refund the money on the following morning. He said it should be done, and that had he supposed anything of the kind he would not have drawn the cheque ; but he was rather short of money, as he had laid out a considerable sum in building a clothes market in the neighbourhood of Houndsditch. I asked him if he could tell us from whom he had received the notes ? He said he had taken them at the Epsom race-course, where he had been in com pany with seven or eight gentlemen, one of whom he designated, and he asked me whether I knew him. I said I did not. He told me that he knew the party from whom he had received the notes, and that it was on the back of the notes. He afterwards said it was Mr. Green, either of Manchester or Birmingham, I do not recollect which. Mr. Bodkin—What is the average balance which the prisoner has been keeping at your house ? Mr. Kingsford here interposed, and said it was the rule of the house not to divulge balances. The witness (the objection being waived) said the prisoner's average balance was about 1001. The LORD MAYOR declined taking bail, and the prisoner was committed. Mr. Ballantine then gave notice to Mr. Mullens that it was his intention to apply to the judge to ac cept bail, for which purpose he should immediately require a copy of the deposition. BOW-STREET. A young man of respectable appearance, named Montague Douglas Scott, described as a solicitor, was charged with obtaining a quantity of plate, valued at 241., from Mr. Veale, a silversmith in the Strand, under false pretences. Mr. Veale stated that the prisoner came to his shop on the 10th of May, and said that he was a profes sional man, and wished to hire six spoons, six torks, and six dessert spoons, which witness allowed him to take on his paying a week's hire. On the 12th he came again, and hired some more on the same terms. On the 24th he hired another quantity, which he had since returned, but had kept what he obtained on the former occasions. Witness subsequently sent to him for these, and then discovered that a gravy spoon had been pledged, but the pawnbroker was unable to identify the prisoner as the person who had obtained the loan. On witness asking him to account for de taining the goods so long, he declared he had hired them for a month, which had not expired, and that he would have returned all the property had he been at home when it was sent for. Mr. HENRY said a charge of improper conversion had not been made out, there being a specific hiring, and as the pawnbroker could not identify the prisoner, a charge of felony could not be sustained. The prisoner's father was however, called upon to become bail in the sum of 1001. for his appearance in a week. Ann Baker, James Grant, Sarah Grant, and William Grant were re-examined on a charge of stealing paper, weighing 5001 b., from the premises of the Masters in Chancery, in Southampton-build ings. Mr. James William Farrar, one of the Masters, proved that James Grant was a porter in the offices, and resided on the premises , the other Grants were his children, and Ann Baker was laundress. The paper produced, among which were a number of Par liamentary reports, were kept in one of the offices, and some of them were witness's property. He has seen them in the office from time to time, but he could not say when he had last observed them. They might have been stolen a year since. No one had permission to treat them as waste pacer. Grant is paid by all the Masters. He received a salary of 2001. per annum. In addition to being porter, he had charge of all the offices. Edward Frewin, a cheesemonger, of 32, High Holborn, said the prisoners had all, except James Grant, for the last two years, been in the habit of going to his shop and selling Parliamentary reports and ether papers. He bad bought at least two-thirds of the papers produced from them, and a great deal more which he had since disposed of. He paid them 2d. a pound, and had purchased altogether about 101. worth. Mr. HENRY made some very stringent remarks upon the conduct of Mr. Frewin in purchasing such immense quantities of Parliamentary reports, kc., from such persons as the prisoners, without due in quiry as to how they came into their possession. The clerks employed in the Masters' office identi fied a large quantity of paper produced, and the pri soners were again remanded until Wednesday next. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. James Olive, a footman out of place, was finally examined before Mr. Hardwick, on a charge of hav ing committed several robberies at the residence of Baron Brunnow, the Russian ambassador, in whose establishment he was steward's-room man until five weeks ago, when he was discharged for irregularity of conduct. Mr. Humphreys attended for the prosecution and Mr. Dod for the prisoner, who was charged with stealing two purses containing altogether nineteen sovereigns, a gold pencil case, and a gold pin, the property o f C oun t Koudriafisky, secretary to the em bassy. He w as fully committed for trial. Pedro Gerniman, who described himself as a mas ter cabinet maker at Jersey , finally was examined on several charges of uttsring forged 51. Ba nk of Eng land notes. The pris iner, who stood committed on three previous cases, was fully committed for trial on two freshfo/i Johns Wren, c r h e a n T a e s m , masatkeringtafiilvoe ca r in Devonshire-street, Walwortb, was finally committed on a similar charge. He also stood committed on three previous cases. Two additional cases were now proved, and h e wa was committed to Newgate for trial in all the five cases. W ORSHIP. STREET. V. CRESWELL. In this case the office of the judge was promoted, the ease having been argued on a former court day. The reverend defendant was suspended for eighteen months, and adjudged to pay the costs, which he had neglected to do, and upon the application of the re • presentative of the late Mr. Brooks, the Court now ordered that payment should be made out of the re ceipts from the living. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, June 3. IN RE GEORGE ROSS. The case of this individual, described as the mana ger of the Heir-at-Law Society, occupied the Court till its rising, at nearly five o'clock. Mr. Dowse and Mr. Sargood opposed for several sufferers; and Mr. Nichols supported the application, under the new Act. The opposition was on the ground that several persons, by advertisements, had been induced to con sult the insolvent as manager of the Heir-at-Law Society, and to pay him money to take the opinion of counsel on the cases. One of the parties had paid him 21. 4s. 6d. to take counsel's opinion, and after wards 201. to file a bill in Chancery, but no bill had been filed. On the present occasion several hours were occupied in respect to the case of a wretched looking man, a beggar is appearance, named Davies, whose wife and family are now in the workhouse, to ascertain whether he was a creditor or not. In the course of the case, on the present occasion, the insolvent said he had resigned the management of the society, and had transferred "thirty cases" to another society, with which, however, he was not connected. The poor man Davies, whose friends are respec table, attended the court, and his appearance excited a good deal of sympathy. On the last occasion the court refused to give protection to the insolvent be cause he had threatened to throw the poor man, whom he had before arrested, into prison. Davies had signed a letter, written t , ) the editor of a weekly paper, dic tated by the insolvent to one of his clerks, and the contents were quite at variance with his statement and his oath ; in the latter the society was everything that was good. At the rising of the court the further hearing as adjourned, wi?hout protection to the insolvent. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. The interest excited by the first examination of Abraham Simmonds, the owner of the public-house next door to the Surrey Theatre, on Thursday last, on the charge of havig been found in the possession of two 1,0001. notes of the Bank of England, was on Satur day exhibited in a most unequivocal manner, the itistice-room and the approaches to it having been crammed with sporting men and the friends of the prisoner. Mr. Bodkin, the counsel, and Mr. Mullens, of the firm of Bush and Mullens, solicitors to the Committee of Bankers for Protection against Forgeries and Frauds, appeared for the prosecutor, Mr. Blakemore, M.P. for Wells, who was in 1843 robbed of three Bank of England notes in an omnibus, two of which were a few d ays ago pa id by th e pri so ner into a banking -ho use in which he keeps an account. Mr. Ballantine, the counse l, an d M r . Child, o f th e firm ofWire and Child, soli c it o r s to the Incorporated ,tlociety of Licensed Vi c t ua ll ers , a pp ear ed for the plusoner. 31r. Bodkin said, th a t b e f ore h e cou ld proceed fur ther with the case he must request the production of the two 1,000/. notes, which he was given to under stand were in the possession o f M r. C h i ld. Mr. Ballantine said there was no objection at all to the production of the notes, and handed them over accordingly. They were then impound ed in th e h an d s o f M r. Goodman, the chief clerk. Upon the back o f th e notes there appeared the name of "Mr. Green, Man e kleater." Mr. Garwood, the clerk in Messrs. Masterman's ba, 'king-house, who paid the notes to Mr. Blakemore In 1843, said that when he paid them the name of Gr leo was not written upon them. dr. Bodkin (as our reporter understood him) said ?Jr. James Bryan Ashwell, a saddler, at White chapel, was charged with assaulting and obstructing the police in the execution of their duty. Police-constable Donovan, of the H division, stated, that while endeavouring to disperse a large crowd of disorderly persons, who had collected to the number of several hundreds in the Whitechapel road, at ten o'clock at night, he requested the defen dant, who was standing in the foremost rank of the assemblage to move away, and, at the same time, gently pushed him with the back of his hand to in duce him to do so. The defendant instantly turned round, thrust him back with a violent shove, which nearly threw him down, and peremptorily demanded what right he had to interfere with a respectable tradesman. It was indispensable that the mob should be dispersed, consisting as it did in great part of swell mobsmen and thieves of other descriptions ; and, on telling the defendant that if he did not leave quietly, as he was setting a bad example to the rest, he must take him into custody, he threw his arms and legs round a post, clung to it with determined tenacity, and declared that if he took him at all, he should take the post also. Having at last dislodged him with great difficulty, the defendant commenced a furious attack upon him, and he was at the same time struck a violent blow upon the back of his head with a stone, which partly stunned him. With the assistance of other constables, however, the de fendant was at length forcibly taken away, but they SUN, LONDON, MONDA.Y EVENING, JUNE 6, 18403, Albion • • • • •• • • • • • • • • Alliance Brit. and For.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, JUNE 2.—There has not been any amount of business transacted here this week; but prices continue steady. Refined goods find a brisk sale at very full rates.—Bristol Mercury. were followed by the mob, who assailed them with horrible imprecations and threats, and pelted them with stones and other missiles all the way to the station. Constable Peck, 87 11, gave a similar account of the fray, and described the defendant's conduct as so violent that it was only by the use of the truncheon in self-defence that his capture could be effacted. When called upon for his answer to the charge, the defendant complained that the police had been guilty of a wholly unwarrantable interference with him in the first instance, and afterwards kicked him and used their truncheons in such a wanton manner that he felt perfectly satisfied that both constables were intoxicated. He called two witnesses—a fancy trimming weaver named Harding, and a young wo man named Angelina Fairweather—who corroborated his account of the transaction to some extent, and also declared that the police were in their opinion in toxicated ; but this was unhesitatingly negatived by Inspector Scott, who proved that the officers were perfectly sober on reaching the station; and Mr. ARNOLD, who said that in these times of com motion and popular disturbance it would have been more becoming in a person of the defendant's posi• tion in society to afford the police every assistance in his power, instead of impeding and resisting them, sentenced him to pay a penalty of 405., or in default to stand committed to the House of Correction for a thick-set charge g l e i t d t 1 e wi f t e h llow vi , ole n n a t tn ly ed as ß sa o u b l e t r i t ng ß po an i d i a ce ll : fortnight. w aAs then constable Davis, of the same division, who stated that while returning to his beat, after assisting in dispersing a tumultuous mob, he was stopped by the prisoner, who ran after him, and exclaiming that he had been for some time on the look out " to have a go " at a policeman single-handed, instantly attacked him by striking him several violent blows in the face in rapid succession. Witness pulled out his staff to defend himself, and after a sharp contest, in which he was obliged to handle the prisoner rather roughly, at last overpowered and secured him. The prisoner, who exhibited a dreadfully contused eye, and said that he was aching from head to foot, declared that he had been drinking so much that he had no recollection of anything that had taken place, though he had no doubt, from what he had since heard, that he richly deserved all that he had re ceived ; and The MAGISTRATE, in consideration of this candour and the severe chastisement he had evidently already undergone, sentenced hint to a merely nominal penalty or three days' imprisonment. --- ELECTION COMMITTEE. DUBLIN. At the re-assembling of the Committee on Saturday, the argument relative to the ♦alidity of the borough rate was resumed. It was contended by the counsel of the sitting Member that the borough rate could not be con sidered as a municipal assessment within the meaning of the Reform Act. The Committee, however, after considering the point at some length, decided that the Act but expressed an opinion that before any voter could be objected to on the ground that he was a defaulter of the rate, it must be distinctly proved that a demand had been made upon him for payment before the last election. The scrutiny case was then proceeded with, whe❑ it was proved that a voter named William Clerbury, who polled for the sitting Member, had made default in pay ment of the rate after a demand had been made upon him for the purpose, and the Committee decided that his vote should be struck uff Mr. Reynolds' list. The vote of Felix Birmingham, who plumped for the sitting Member, was then objects d to, but the collector of the borough rate failed to prove that he had de manded payment of the elector, and the Committee decided that the vote should be retained. The remainder of the sitting was taken up with similar objections, but up to the rising of the Committee, at tour o'clock, the petitioners had only succeeded in striking off one vote. CHARTIST MEETINGS. Mr. Justice Patteson. in addressing the grand jury yesterday in the Court of Queen's Bench, after making the observations usually delivered on such occasions, proceeded to say— "l should nut trouble you further but for the peculiar circumstances of the times. I think it right from this place, the highest criminal court in the realm, to point out the abhorrence in which the law holds such tumul tuous assemblages as have lately terrified and distracted the peaceably disposed of her ,Majesty's subjects ; for it is impossible to foresee what consequences may arise from such assemblages, even when the object, in the first instance, for calling them together may have bee❑ just and lawful, since the fact of an assemblage of crowds of persons may lead to acts not at all contemplated originally, May lead to outrages which were never thought of by the persons calling them together, but which bring those persons within the operation of the law. This is true of all assemblages held even in the day time, and how much more true is it, then, of such assemblages as are held at night, when it is next to impossible to discuss with temper or moderation the matters which may have brought them together, and when it is scarcely possible for any one, even the most charitable and indulgent, to conceive that anything short of intimidation by physical force was intended ; and the essence of the criminality in such cases is the extent of alarm with which the peaceable inhabitants may be affected, and, therefore, I have no hesitation in saying that such tumultuous meet ings at night can hardly, under any circumstances what ever, be otherwise than criminal. I speak as an exponent of the criminal law of the land, applicable to all parts of her Majesty's dominions ; and if proceedings on in dictment against parties forming such assemblages should come before you, whether those parties be principals or merely spectators going to such meetings without considering that by so doing they swell the numbers and increase the means of doing mischief, you must con sider what are the facts, and in proportion as terror has been excited, and outbreaks and disorders are likely to prevail, in that proportion are these parties guilty. I cannot define the limits of the offence, because it is a matter of fact which it will be for you to consider and determine on. Ido not anticipate that any case of this sort will come before you, but I feel it my duty to warn all parties that the law is not to be trifled with, that the country must not be kept in the state of alarm in which it has lately been, and that the apprehensions which have existed in the minds of the well-disposed of out breaks taking place must be put an end to. The law will hold out an example to deter others from the like offences. It is not to be expected that those who have placed themselves in a position to be called specially for ward shall be harassed by repeated calls upon them; it is not desirable that it should be so; and it must be self-evident to all that those who make such calls imperative should suffer the consequences of their misconduct. I need not state to you what means the law has of repressing these tumults further than tt, say that it is the bounden duty of all her Majesty's sub jects to lend themselves to the preservation of peace and good order both by the common law of the land and la) particular statutes. That duty, I need not say, ha= lately been performed in a most efficient manner, and an example has been held out which all the countries of the world would do well to follow. I trust that, under God's blessing, these means will be effectual to the preserva tion of good order—l hope they will be effectual to secure the blessings of peace, and to secure all those in valuable blessings which we enjoy under the constitution of the realm—blessings secured by the highest authority in this country—l mean the authority of Parliament. 1 have thought it proper thus shortly to state what the authority of the law is upon the subject, and to point out the dangers which may be incurred by persons meeting in such assemblages as have been lately held in this and other parts of the country." The Learned Judge then dismissed the grand jury, who withdrew. THE NEWSPAPER PRESS OF PARIS.

VIRGINIA -FIELDS.BETIINAL-GREEN.---The scenes that took place in this neighbourhood yesterday morning will not easily be f rgotten. It having been announced that a meeting of the " six points men" would take place in an open space of groued facing the Birdcage tavern, at ten o'clock in the forenoon, at that hour about 500 per sons met together. Having elected a chairman, a man whose name was said to be Page proceeded to address t h e m eet ing. He said they were met together to show the Government that they were determined to rest neither night or day— not even on the Sab bath—without the Charter:—Hear, hear.) By that ap plause he knew the persons standing r oun d hi m were i e earnes t—were determined to have the Charter.—(Cries of " And Mitchell.") Well, they could have both it they liked ; they had only to he determined, and they would soon convince the Government that they would be obliged to recall their banished friend to his native soil, and also that they must make the Charter, and nothing else, the law of the land.—(Loud cheers.) He admired their enthusiasm, but working was better than preaching. From what had appeared in the papers he had no doubt that the police would attempt to put down this meeting—hut should they be allowed to suc • eyed in their purposes?—(Cries of " No.") Then let them all be determined to a man, and show the vile police if they came there, that they were not afraid of them (Cries of "We will.") Well, then, he would tell them how to do it. If they should see the police coming, in stead of making infernal asses of themselves by running away, let them Corm into a military square, and he would answer that not one of them would be injured. If, on the contrary, they commenced running away, so surely would they be butchered by the blue monsters. The speaker had hardly uttered the last sentence when Mr. Inspector Tarlton, of the N division, came in sight, with about torts constables. In an instant a cry was raised of " the police! the police!" and the mob, instead of forming the "military square," commenced running in all directions. Here the matter would have ended bad it not been for some desperate fellows, who began to incite the crowd, and shouting out, " Down with the police !" At the same time a number of them commenced throwing stones at the officers. Upon this Tarlton gave the men orders to disperse the crowd. On being driven from the open ground the mob took possession of the bye streets, and pelted the police. A brick was thrown at Inspector Tarlton, which caught him between the shoulders and knocked him down ; at the same moment Sergeant Moore was floored in a similar manner. The police then went to work with their truncheons, and a series of conflicts took place at various points. In South-street and Cootle-street, the inhabitants of which are of the lowest class, the police were assailed by showers of brickbats and ginger beer bottle s from the windows, by which several were hurt, and No. 169 was obliged to be removed to the station. In Virginia-row a party of mounted police, armed with swords, had to come to the rescue of their comrades on foot; but no sooner were they drafted off to another point, than the insurgents rallied, and drove the police out of the street. At length Inspector Penny came into the field with a reinforcement of a hundred men, when, by dint of a most indefatigable use of their staves, something like order was restored. Of course, a vast number of the Chartists were injured. From ten o'clock until nearly one this terrible work was going on; the shouting, screaming, and fighting was of such a cha racter as to baffle all means of accurately describing it. Several of the birdcatchers, and other low people being in the streets, were continually inciting the mob, and crying out, " We intend to keep up this work for two years, if we don't get the charter before!" Three or four parties were taken into custody for pelting the police and inciting the mob, but unfortunately the prin cipal ringleaders escaped. By one o'clock the neigh bourhood assumed its usual state of quietude, and the police were mustered at a place close by, in case any further rioting should take place. LONDON-FIELDS, HACKNET.—From information for warded to the Commissioners of Police that a monster meeting was to take place in these fields yesterday morn ing, six o'clock a.m., a powerful body of police belonging to the N, G, and H divisions, with Mr. Superintendent Johnson and Inspectors Thatcher and Cowden, took pos session of the ground. A considerable number of people congregated during the day, but no meeting was allowed to take place. Vicroele PART.—The Chartists, and other disor derly characters belonging to this distrie.t, deter mined not to be behind their brethren in other places with their meetings, commenced operations in Victoria Park as early as eight o'clock yesterday morning. Shortly before that hour about three or four hundred persons congregated together, and a chairman having been chosen, the proceedings commenced. One of the Chartist orators was addressing the meeting and pointing out the only way of making the Government give them the Charter, when a number of mounted policemen, with drawn swords, galloped on to the ground. In an instant a scene of indescribable confusion took place; the police set to work with the flat parts of their swords, and in the course of a few minutes the park was deserted by all except the police. A most determined attempt was made at an early part of the afternoon by a dissolute gang to murder two constables. A bode of the K division, in returning from the park, on pas - sing Virginia Gardens, found about one hundred men ill-using the officers; they had forced them out of the ground and were pressing their throats, no doubt intending to murder them. The K division, by using their truncheons, succeeded in beating off the mob and taking two or three of the ringleaders. The ground of offence was this:—The officers, in passing by one of the houses in Virginia-row, had a pike pointed at them by a man, who said, " A little of this will do you good." They we re waiting for this party to come out when they were so brutally attacked. BISHOP BONNER'S FIELDS. Two meetings took place in these fields during the afternoon, one at two o'clock, and another at five. The first was principally to sympathise with Mr. Mitchel. A great many violent speeches were delivered, and a re solution passed to the effect, " that the Government had shown itself to be tyrannical and cruel in banishing Mr. Mitchel, who had been guilty of no offence." The second meeting commenced immediately at the close of the first. The speeches were of the usual violent cha rscter, and during their delivery the shouting of the par ties was most deafening. For four hours, although there was an immense number of police, both mounted and on foot, but very few of them could be seen whilst the meetings lasted. At length, however, circumstances arose which called for their interference. About half past six o'clock, a number of boys commenced throwing stones at each other, when some of the rabble told them that instead of doing so they ought to pelt the church, in which the police were concealed. In an instant they did as they were requested, and showers of stones were thrown at the windows, and in the course of a few minutes a great number of squares of glass were de molished. The police were now called into action, and having emerged from their various places of conceal ment, they marched in sections into the midst of the people. The rabble then cried out, " You who have arms, use them;" and from what subsequently took place, it is quite clear that not a few were armed. The moment the police drew their truncheons, a great many parties scampered off in various directions; but several hundreds refused to go, and were loud in their complaints against the police. Tho men having been commanded to clear the ground, a dreadful conflict be tween the rabble and police took place. The truncheons were used with full force, without the least regard to persons, and in the space of a few minutes several dozen men and buys were knocked about. Some were sent flat upon the ground, and were walkedover by others in their anxiety to escape, whilst many had their heads broken, arms fractured, and otherwise seriously injured. Not withstanding the violence the police were obliged to use, many refused to get off the ground; and on the police going up between them, they showed the officers the arms they had about their persons. Not to be put down by the exhibition of the weapons the mob had about them, they set to work with renewed vigour, and a deal of bloodshed was the result; but fortunately, up to the time this was written, no fatal case had occurred, although a desperate attempt was made to stab a police man of the K division in the abdomen. The officer seeing the fellow in the act, put down his hand to ward off the blow, when the instrument penetrated completely through the fleshy part of the hand. The constable was immediately disabled from duty, and was obliged to be removed to the London Hospital. Several partied were taken into custody, but whether the principal ringleaders or not is at present unknown. The most unfortunate part of the affair is, that several innocent persons who were passing along the roads, on getting mixed up with the crowd, were severely injured. One poor fellow, a wheelwright living in Green-street, had his head laid open, and upon being carried to a neighbouring public-house, was at first supposed to be dead. A medical man having been called in, he pro nounced the poor fellow to be in a very precarious con dition. At the evening meeting about twenty five thousand persons assembled. After waiting for about one hour (the meeting being calla fur five o'clock) for the leaders, Mr. SIIARP rose and said—My friends, you perceive that I have kept my promise and am here, but I am sorry to say those who promised to speak at this meeting have not arrived. They are, I fear, cowards, for they have kept away because it has been reported that there was danger to be apprehended from the po lice and military, the authorities having stated that they would put down the meeting. I cannot help calling them cowards, and do not care one pin for the po - lice or the military. I shall continue to address you whenever I can get an opportunity, until you have obtained your rights.—(Cheers.) I consider your conduct this morning was most disgusting ; you allowed the police to beat men, women, and children indiscriminately, and you never attempted to render assistance. Why did you not close in on the police, and then you could have mastered them.—(A , voice, e were not prepared.") I hear a person say you were not prepared ; why, if you had opened your ranks, allowed the police to come in, and then have closed upon them, you would have given them what they deserve, instead of allowing them to break your heads.—(Cheers.) If any attempt is made by the police to interfere with thi-. meeting, keep close—every man to man, and then if they force it upon you, act on the defensive. Here Mr. Ernest Jones made his appearance, and Mr. Sharp immediately gave way to that gentleman. Mr. JONES said—Brother slaves, and men of the Tower Hamlets, I am sorry I could not be here before. I have been attending a large meeting at Paddington, where, although the police tried to prevent it, we bad a glorious meeting. My friends,l know the b--y Govern ; went are mad, but they are not mad enoughtopu down these meetings. If they did, I would hurl defianceat them, their police, and their military. They little know our strength, but I can tell them the y soon w On the 12th we will show them w ha t we can do. _On that day we shall have such a d e monstration as has never before been witnessed in this country. 1 - go.i"g off to-night by mail train t o L an cashire or Yorks h ire, for the purpose of preparing the people in those districts for that day. I hope you will stand last by your colours, fur the whole of the country is now looking to London to ascertain the state of feeling here. I hope you will not desert your posts if a few poliuemen come amongst you, for there is danger for those who run, safety for those who stand, and whatever may be the consequence, there cannot be more heads broken than there are at present. Your business now is to organize. Appoint your class leaders, make your classes, divide yourselves into wardmotes, get in so thorough a state of organiza tion that you may at any moment be ready to act it callwd upon. I have heard from a very good authority that the men of Dublin have already commenced, and I have also been informed that the Government have requested the newspapers not to insert any accounts of the Irish out ureaks. We, therefore, require funds to send a man to Dublin to ascertain it' such is the case. It is no use for the Government to put me down, for I shall never cease agitating until I have procured for the poor man his rights, and brought the nose of the rich to the grindstone. On Whit Monday we shall have another display, another Kennington-common meeting, but not at liennington.—(Hear, hear, and cheer.) Will Lon don do its duty?—(Cries of " Yes, yes.") Mr. Jones concluded by advising them to organize, and in a few days the green flag would float over Downing-street, Mitchel and John Frost would be on their way to Eng land, and Lord John Russell and Lord Grey on their way to Baffin's Bay.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. Jones and the other leaders then left the ground. The sight of a policeman crossing the fields towards the church arrested the attention of the mob, who made off towards him in a body, evidently resolved to revenge the attack which had been made upon thorn in the morning. From a newly Macadam ized road in front of the church they procured a large supply of stones, with which they attacked the constable, who managed, however, to make his escape, after receiving many severe injuries. Their attention was then directed to the church, the windows of which were speedily broken, the mob having become impressed with the idea t hat the sacred edifice was filled with soldiers and policemen. The police, in a body, then isaisde towards the mob, but their number was so small compared with their assailants, that they were unable to quell the disturbances; indeed, in the conflict which en sued they were completely beaten, and were compelled to take refuge in the church. Policeman K 118 received a dreadful cut across the temple, an inch and a half long and an inch deep. Policeman K 92 received a blow across the back of his neck with an iron railing, and the man who inflicted it was captured after a desperate re sistance. Policeman 210 (plain clothes) received a frightful wound under the ear from a brickbat while en deavouring to rescue a comrade who had been attacked by a man with a large knife. This man was also cap tured, as were about sixteen others, and lodged pro tem. in the vaults of St. James's Church. The wounded were conveyed to the rectory. house, where their wounds were dressed by two surgeons, and great attention was paid to them by the Rev. H. P. Houghton, who provided wine and other necessaries. Meanwhile the horse-patrols and a large body of po lice arrived, and co:nmenced clearing the fields, a task of no small difficulty, for the mob was obstinate, and were deter Mined upon resistance. The police went to work with vigour, and a large number of persons, between 70 to 80, were severely wounded, and others wore captured and taken off by the horse-police. Shortly afterwards a signal was given, and the mob moved off to Stepney-green, followed by the police. A most determined spirit is evinced with regard to the threatened rising on Monday next, the 12th inst. No arrangements have yet been made as to the place of meeting ; and the whole affair, it is believed, is to be kept a secret in the several localities until the morning of the day when the meeting will be held. ELEVEN o'cLogx. P.m.—A considerable number of the police have been ordered off to their several station houses, there to remain in reserve in case their services should be again required. The whole of the mounted police are also in readiness. Information having reached the authorities that it was the determination of the Chartists to hold meetings in the more distant parts of the metropolis, mounted men were sent off to Bow, Stratford, Islington, and several other places, with instructions that immediate notice should be given in the event of any attempt to disturb the peace being made. To keep the crowd from again assembling in Bishop Bonner's-fields required the most stringent measures on the part of the authorities, and in the event of the police not being able to manage the mob, ample provision was made by the military to assist them. The whole of the Government offices, the Bank of England, and the Mint were well protected, each having a treble guard on duty. Upon making inquiries at the London Hospital it was ascertained that several persons were severely injured by the blows from the policernens' truncheons and cut lasses, but no fatal result was apprehended. A great many persons, after having their wounds dressed, were enabled to walk home. CAPTURE 07 A CHARTIST LEADER. —Last evening an individual covered with blood, that flowed from a wound which, he alleged, had been inflicted by a police man's sabre whilst attending a Chartist meeting at Bishop Bonner's fields, Bethnal-Green, paraded the principal thoroughfares of the metropolis, followed by a mob of two hundred or three hundred persons. His object seemed to be to make public the treatment he had received, as he stopped at all the newspaper-offices, demanding interviews with the editors. His beard had been suffered to grow, and altogether he presented a most singular spectacle. The crowd became very great, and as he was in the act of ringing the bell at Mr. Reynolds's, the publisher, in Wellington -street, he was captured by two constables of the F division of police, and conveyed to Bow-street station house, where he was recognised as Mr. Dunkard, the Chartist, who addressed the mob from the lamp-post on Clerken well-eTeen, on Wednesday night. Mr. Superintendent Pearce immediately acquainted the magistrates of Bow street court, who were in attendance, and, accompanied by Mr. Burnaby, the chief clerk, they attended at the station-house, and examined the prisoner. He was or dered to be detained. His wounds were dressed by a surgeon. THE RIOTOUS PROCEEDINGS IN MANCEIESTER About half-past eleven o'clock on Thursday, William Chadwick, a Chartist lecturer, headed a party of some fitly or sixty persons, who set out from the New Cross with the intention of going to Oldham to induce the Chartists there once more to come to Manchester, and to avenge their defeat of the preceding day. On the road, however, most of his followers slunk away, and he entered Oldham with a very few of his corps remain ing. Amongst other disorderly and cowardly proceed ings of the mob at New Cross, they attacked any police constable whom they saw alone, as he was going to duty or returning home, and in one case a policeman was severely injured. About 25 minutes after eight o'clock, as policeman James Gillespie, B 70, was proceeding from his own dwelling, in Bennett-street, to the Oldham road police-station, be was euddenly assailed by a volley of stones when near the end of Lees-street, Oldham road; he was knocked down, and when on the ground was savagely beaten and kicked by the rioters. Some of the police coming up, he was conveyed home, where he now lies much injured, and quite unable for the pre sent to resume his duties. About half-past seven o'clock, a body of several hundred men and lads proceeded slowly from the New Cross to the B division police-station, Oldham-road, for the purpose, as they avowed, of attacking the police there. At this time, there were not more than 50 or 60 constables in the station; and the mob continued stationary for about ten minutes, throwing stones, and apparently endeavouring to provoke the police to raake a sally, in order to ascertain their strength. At length, seeing the numbers of the mob rapidly increasing, till they were about 2,000, Mr. Superintendent Leary sud denly rushed out, at the head of about 50 of the B divi sion, when the mob dispersed, running rapidly in all directions, and, as soon as the police returned from pursuing them, assailing the officers with stones, brick bats, and other missiles; but taking care to keep at a distance. As the crowd again advanced, Mr. Leary, at the head of his men, made a second sortie, and this time cleared Oldham-road and the adjacent streets. On receiving the accounts of the disorderly state of the neighbourhood of New Cross, Captain Willis, with Mr. Beswick, chief superintendent, Superintendent Sawley, and a strong body of police of the A and C divi sions, proceeded thither, and after clearing the area at New Cross, proceeded in like manner to clear Oldham road, Great Ancoats-street, Swan -street, and the neigh bouring streets; and having dispersed the mobs, a number of the police were formed into patrols of half a dozen men each, who continued to patrol the district for some time, refusing to allow the assembling of even small groups, and thus they prevented the accumulation of the disorderly in numbers sufficient to form a mob. At the Borough Court yesterday (Friday), a man named Christopher Leftwich was charged with having thrown stones at the police, on the previous evening, in the neighbourhood of Oldham road. The prisoner was ordered to find two sureties in 10/. each for his keeping the peace for three months. A woman named Ann Gamble, was also charged with having thrown a stone at a policeman from a house in Oldham-road. She was bound over in like sureties to keep the peace for three months. Last evening, a crowd of loiterers as sembled New Cross and in the surrounding streets, and half-past seven o'clock they became so numerous that inadequate n a about the t the efforts of the force stationed there prove d to keep them on the move. Large reinforcements police, however, were brought up from the of he B ha a v n i d ng C d be iy e n organized, the number of persons in the stree ts was soon i sion, and a regular system of patrolling - materially diminished, and by h Manchester Guardian. ded at the Newton Eight men, a ho had been a there were but few persons more than -past nine o'clock usual !bout.— toll-bar on Wednesday , v_f_e!epopnrethh e e n following moraing brought up at the New 13 Robert al eL' f or examination, before Mr. H.

Mr. Superintendent Leary having previously received infor mation to that effect, had marched off with his divison tothe Newton toll bar, to prevent the people coming in. A bout eleven o'clock he (Mr. Beswick) joined Mr. Leary at the toll-bar, and shortly after word was brought that the people were flocking into Manchester. When it was supposed that they must have got near to the bar, it was thought prudent to close the gate, avid the police were ordered to draw their swords. About ten minutes to twelve o'clock indications of a procession marching up from Manchester side became visible, and presently the prisoner Flynn rushed up to the bar, and in a violent manner demanded that the gates should be opened, say ing that be and the people with him were going on to the meeting (at Faileworth).
