- IRELAND. TRIAL OF MR. MITCHEL. D r- IL , MIT 20.—The Commission was opened this clay by Noon Leroy . and Mr. Justice Moore. G reat _ exattamerit prevailed in the im mediate vicinity of the cow t , owing to the desire of the people to see air. Mi seise'. It will be seen by the report that the Judge in s charge but delicately alluded to his case. COMMISSION COURT. At eleven o'clock the presiding Judges, Baron Lefroy and Justice Moore, accompanied by the Right Hon. the Zord Mayer, entered the court, and opened the Com mission. The Marshal of Dublin (Mr. Reynolds), who was in attendance, with the ether city officers, on the Lord Jatayar, seated himself in front of the bench, near the dock, and quietly unfolding the United Irishman, pro ceeded to read it. The following gentlemen were sworn on the grand j Aries : City—Peter Digges La Touche, foreman; Simon Foot, Sir Richard Baker, Sylvester Young, Jawes Turbot, 'Thomas M'Enery, Thomas Winans, Richard Wright, Daniel Hutton, Richard Armitt, Abraham Studdart, J... Stokes, William Woodreffe, Gustavus Wilson, A.e in Stopford, John Astell, George Hodges, Henry Downas, Sn ow, Jervis, Denis Moylan, William Todd, Thonasz Snow, and Thomas altDonnell,Esqs. County —Thomas James Quentin, foreman; William Worthington, Emmanuel Bayley, Henry M‘Manus, Andrew Rogers, John Gosson, Archibald Ferguson, Joh a n Madden. Matthew Callaghan, WM. Parker; Benja znin Bidon, Charles Fletcher, Anthony Fox, John Stod den, Thomas Sherlock, Horatio Jude, Henry Slade, Paul Barry, Jolla Kirkwood, Edward Fox, Anthony Browne, James Oct, and John Aylmer, Esqs. The Right Hon. Baron LZ7BOY proceeded to charge the jury. He said—Gentlemen of the jury, lam now in a condition to address anti on the case, which in the marling it appeared to the Court was not ripe for your consideration, or for the Court making any observation wen it. Tire case, as I stated to you, then appeared on *e face dr the calendar in an ambiguous light. It is the case of a prisoner of the name of John Mitchel, and the return en the calendar is that he was committed for publishing a seditious libel. It was then impossible to ascertain with that precision which is necessary, what the nature of the charge against the prisoner might be; might either be for a misdemeanour in publishing a seditious libel, or it might be a charge of felony under the late Aet. In either case it was a subject to which it was quite befitting the Court should call your attention with a view to give you assistance. Now we are enabled to kaove what the nature of the charge is, for we have been apprised that a bill of felony under the late Act is about to be sent up to you. I congratulate you, gentlemen, and I think you may congratulate the court, that the case for your consideration is one of the character which it is, and not such as it might have been if it were the case of a bill for a misdemeanour for a seditious publication. You have now to consider the caga, a of a well-defiled and known offence to the law, wrieh * under the late Act described with an accuracy and precision which will leave you comparativel y n o difficulty in the discharge of the duty yo u have to fulfil . r fur ub- Unfortanately in the case of a misdemeanwll up o which .fishing a seditious libel, a practice has g ineolves the jury and the court in considar t r a o a d b e le in di r ffiecspect difficulty in disposing of cases of that sor t. A l to topics and to observations q uite ofan at t unmeasured ex tent, and so far as I can see immeasura bl e , has grown up, which has rendered the admi nistration of j ustice -in that sort of cases extremely difficult, and ex t TY embarrassing both to court and jury. ifbwever, gentlemen , you have not i n this case to grope your way through unbounded regions to a sort of terra incognita of sedition. You have only to con. sidc'r an offauce well known to the law, and which is limited and described by this Act to which it is now my duty to mai your attention. The indictment about to be seat up to you is framed upon the first two sections of the Aot, the one founded upon the compassing, imagin ing, and intending to deprive the Queen of her style, title, rol name, and of the I m p er i a l C rown o f the United kingdom ; and the tither upon the " compassing end imagining . " for the purpose of levying war against the Crown, to compel her Majesty by force or constraint to atter her councils and measures. And the mode in which the indictment charges the utterance and expres sions of those intents, is, by eseir insertion of, and pub latation in a paper called the United Irishman. There are, betides the counts supported by reference to that publication, two counts charging that by divers other publications after the passing of the Act, both before and after the 6tiaflay of May, which is the day first named in the indictment, the prisoner did endeavour to excite her Majesty's subjects to assist in bringing into eithet the same felonious compassing, and did also give inatauctions as to the manner in which such compassings delight to be carried into effect. This law, gentlemen, I bove to elsserae to you, is not altogether a new law, for the previsions of this Act are to be found in other Acts long antecedent to it in substance and in terms, but only wader a different character, and subject to a diffe *nt penalty. In fact, the matters which, by this late lact, are made felonies, punishable by transportation or imprisonment, were, previous to this Act, at least in Egghead, hit treason—punishable, of course, by death. That certainly eAs the law of England ; a doubt existed whether it was the law in Ireland ; and one of the objects of the present Act was to remove that doubt. The present Act, which removes all doubt ae to Ireland, is not a new law, nor can it be looked upon as a law of extreme rigour or severity. On the contrary, it is a law lowering the character of the offence, and mitigating most materially the punish ment that is to attend it. You are now called upon to give this law effect, provided a case is made out to your satisfaction, coming within the provisions of the Act. I must *serve that the Acs does not require that the com passing, or purpose, or intent, should be carried into affect; but it does require that there should be such a manifestation of the intent as the Act specifies—not that any man should in the dark, or under the mere suspicion of entertaining any such intent, be convicted or be in danger of conviction, but that those purposes or intentions should be manifested by some writing or publication by the party charged with entertaining those intentions, or by sense other overt act, or matter evinc ing clearly that the party accused did entertain such intent. Then the Act declares the person so entertain ing any. of those intentions, and manifesting them in slaty of the ways pointed out by the Act, shall be guilty of felony within the Act. I will now call your atten tion to the course which this indictment takes. After charging this felonious compassing and intention of the two kinds I have stated to you, it goes on to state that the prisoner did publish in that newspaper certain speeehee made by himself, and that it appears from that publication, and from those speeches so published by himaelf, that he did entertain the purpose and design ascribed to bins by the indictment, of depriving the Queen of her sovereignty over these realms, and levy ing war against her for tete purpose of compelling her Majesty to change her councils or measures. It will, thareffere, be far you to say, in the first instance, whether those publietations which are set out in the in dictment are brought home to the prisoner as being his pnalicathon, published by him or by his authority. If you :fall not be so satisfied, then there would be an end to the 'Alleged publication; but if you should be sated fleet the publication was his, and chargeable to, then you will have to consider whether the mamCese purpose and intent ascribed to him in tire two particulars I have already adverted to, tamely, the purpose or intent of depriving her Majesty of Ilse sovereignty of these realms, or secondly, the puiposie or intent of levying war against her Majesty for the pteepese of compelling her by force to alter her counatie or measures, is established, I have not been able en go over the publications very minutely ; but on glancing over them, as far as I have been able, to direct yaw atiention to what might strike me as must material for your consideration, I have particularly remarked one passage, to which I shall now refer. It is this : " Give up for ever that old interpretation you put upon the word 'repeal.' Repeal is no priest movement ; it is no sectstnan movement ; it is no money swindle, nor • eighty-two' delitsion, nor puffing, nor O'Connellism, or Vullaghmast-green cap's stage play , nor forma sounding inanity of any sort got up for an y pas n's profit or praise. It is the mightya p - glonaje struggle of a nation hastening tobe bor n s into new naNsal life ; in the which unspeakable throes alit the parts and powers and elements of our Irish exist enc.—our confederations, our Protestant repeal asso ciations, oar tenant-right societies, our clubs, cliques, and commi4tees, amidst confusion enough and the sad dest jostling and jumbling, are all inevitably tending, however uoconsciuusly, to the one same and illustriou s awl.—not a local Legislature—not a return to our an cient eenstitutioae—not a golden link, or a patchwork Parliament, or a College-green chapel-of-ease to St. Stephen's—but an Irish Republic, one and indivisible." Those who are addressed are advised to give up the old interpretation of the word " repeat," to renounce every thAig that was heretofore connected with her Majesty's sciereignty in this United Kingdom as Queen of Great Britain and Ireland, and now the call is for an inde pendent Irish Republic. Gentlemen, it is for you to construe his, and see if you elan even imagine any seal in which her Majesty can be Queen of this tatted Kingdom of England and Ireland, and yet Iretand be an independent republic. If you dan, con sistently with common sense and the interpretation of these words, entertain nay doubt upon that subject, you then will be at liberty to hold that this passage does not maaifest the purpose and intent of depriving her Majesty of her state and title of Queen of the United Kingdom. Tale ries* sentence I find in it is this:—" Hove are we to meet that day? In arms, my countrymen—in arms." You will look over the rest of it, and see if there be anything in it tending to disclaim, to qualify, or to recall as casual or over-hasty, any expression in the course of this speech; but you will also have to consider, that after haviag been made, this speech is published—an act of deliberation which you must take into your ac count if you should find any attempt is made to repre sent this es an over-hasty, unintentional expression. If here be t taything substantial and real to qualify that passage, and take out of it the sting , g• the prisoner the benefit o f i t; but supposingtidat passage to stand—as it does— ensa i t i e y e d and unexplained, it will be for y on on ao say whether any doubt remains yo* mind of the felonious intention, and of age being brought home to the prisoner. The neat Laaa and on which this indiotment is sought to be su s '-'mased is the intention to l evy war against her M wash the View and intentio n to compel aje sty, her, by force or eonaltrains, to change bra measures or her Councils. Gausinneq, it is not necessary that this intention to levy war should be caaried into elect. The charge is the ^+l emet - s in the intending, the avow' ima catalpas ing the intention to i e „, :r ear . is peeeeaary, before you can be called upon -ca-a..a.a.-- to &mac any intention to the party, to ki•-••= 7 ., L,,, k • l e , ifi warngainst the know what i in f , aaae poiat af kw y g Severe*, It is oca - 4tata.all* rft to tell what is not necessary to constitnte that • , ,OL • eace. is not necessary that an army should be tireayed, or that it should be trainedaa c i tt ti ne d , or officered, or furnished with a l l the 'milt oats • war. The law requires no such thing t o smut: 0 R. stitute a levying of war against the Sovereign, and in support of that view of the case I beg to quote the opinion of Sir Michael Forster. You are not called upon to decide in this case what is levying of war against the Sovereign : you are only called upon to say if the intention of levying war was entertained. I call your attention to this document that you may examine it, to see if there be any intention avowed of seeking, by force and arms, or by force or constraint, to compel the Sovereign to change her mea sures or councils. When the Act says, "to compel the Sovereign, by force or constraint, to change her coun eils," it does not contemplate that the jury should be obliged to come to the wild conclusion that the prisoner must have designed to march an army to London, and by actual physical force compel the Queen to change her measures. No, but if you find in this document evidence of a purpose or intention to stir up rebellion — to stir up insurrection—nay, to stir up tumultuous meetings for the purpose of redressing real or imaginary grievances, and with a view of obliging her Majesty, by the apprehension of any evil or national calamity, to change her measures, it would be within the terms of this Act. But though I am putting this case to you in all its varieties, I may be going too far, and unnecessarily too far, because if I can find throughout this publication a distinct call en the nation at large to arms, for the purpose suggested here, then it is for you to say whether any doubt re mains on your mind as to the extent and purpose of levying war against her Majesty for the purpose of compelling her to change her councils. The summary of what I have addressed to you is shortly this:—You will have, first, to ascertain whether those publications are brought home to the prisoner; next, w hether in the way of explanation or manifestation of intention or acts done, by being published, evidence is afforded of his in tention. If you do, you are bound to find the bill: if you do not, you will, of course, ignore it. CLERK ON THE CROWN (to the jury)—Gentlemen, doou wish the bills should be sent up to-night, or do you prefer that they s h ou ld be sent up on Monday morning? Foreman—On Monday morning. COURT—Gentlemen, you are to attend at eleven o'clock on Monday morning for the purpose of re- ceiving the bills. OF THE CONFEDERATION.

" By order, "RICHARD M. ARDAGH. 1 1848 i . n " " Metropolitan Police Office, Lower Castle-yard, May 8 Between fire o'clockandsix the evening a large corps of i n f antry were marched into the College quadrangle, and soon after a strong police force, amount ing to between 350 and 400 men, as far as could be judged. The police were cantoned in the College park, and the sergeant of each division was furnished with keys for the different doors and gates leading out on the city from various quarters of the park, so that a force could be mustered at the shortest warning in Westland row' Brunswick-street, Leinster-street, Nassau-street , or Grafton -street, through the Provost's gardens. These precautions, it would appear, were taken to inti midate the Confederate clubs from walking in proces sion. It appears that a crowd of persons, estimated by the police inspector on duty at 3,000 persons, assembled opposite the rooms of the Confederation, in D'Olier street, and refused to move on. He arrested 65 of them, and this day they were brought before the magistrates of College-street Police-office. Subjoined is a note of the proceedings. COLLEGE-STREET POLICE-OFFICE. THE ARRESTS LAST NIGHT.—A large number of persons, amounting in all to 65, were brought up to-day, before Mr. Tyndal, charged with causing an obstruction in the streets last night. Mr. O'Donovan, as solicitor, Messrs. Dillon, O'Hea, and O'Neil, as counsel, appeared on the part of the parties charged. The hearing of the case came on at one o'clock. Dr. Gray, whose case had been partly tried in the morning, applied to his Worship for a few minutes' postponement, as Mr. O'Hea, his counsel, was not then in attendance. His Worship granted the application, and proceeded to hear the other cases as they stood in their order on the book. Six of the party were brought forward, when In spector Walsh was sworn, and gave his testimony as follows : In consequence of a habit that has existed for a great many days— Counsellor DILLON—Is this gentleman a witness ? I believe he is going to make a speech. Witness—ln consequence of large crowds of persons having assembled— Mr. O'Nzu.—As counsel for the party charged, I must protest against evidence being given in this illegal manner. He is now going to state matters which oc \ curred on the day previous to that on which the offence occurred for which he is now prosecuting. Witness—l mean to save you the trouble of putting those questions to me. Mr. O'NEIL—In duty to my clients, I feel bound to ask you what questions I please, and I say that evidence taken before a justice cf the peace must be governed by the same laws as that given in the superior courts. Witness—Then I will put my evidence in any shape you please. It appeared to the authorities, in conse quence of obstructions having taken place in d'Olier street, and which they apprehended would again take place on last night, a force of police were ordered to assemble and act under my orders, if any obstruction were to take place in that street. I was to take a small number of police in the first instance. Mr. O'Nare.—l protest against this as illegal evidence. It is laid down in the Ist East— Witness—l will give it to you at once. I saw an obstruction in d'Olier-street, I saw a crowd of persons, numbering in my estimate 3,000, occupying the carriage sad footways, and they were stationary in d'Olier-street. I took a party of police, and went into that street. I stood and loudly cautioned the people to disperse and go to their homes, as in case they did remain, after being duly warned, that my o r d e r s were t o isperse them, and to use my discretion as to the most effectual manner that could be done without using violence to the people. During a quarter of an hour from the time I first warned them I repeated the warning at the ends of the street and in the centre of it, so that no person would have an excuse to remain there in that sta tionary manner and continue the obstruction, or that any person. could have to say any advantage had been taken of them by the polies. My first warning was responded to by a derisive shout of laughter, and each succeeding warning was unheeded, as the people did not move along, but kept their places in the street. I plainly and dis tinctly told them what I would do—namely, that I would apprehend some of them. I then got a sufficient force to effect that without any unpleasant collision, and some of them I arrested are men now standing at the bar. My warning commenced about nine o'clock, and it was half-past eleven, and after having taken the parties into custody, before the street was left in its 1 ordinary state. The case of six of the persons in custody was then gone into. After a long and uninteresting examination of witnesses, the Magistrates dismissed one of the ac cused parties, and ordered the other five to be held in bail in their own recognizances, not to be found again obstructing the police in the discharge of their duty. DH. GRAY'S CASE. Constable Broderick stated that about ten o'clock last night he was stationed with a party of police in West morland-street, which reached across the street, and had been placed there to prevent people passing, while another party was clearing the street of a large crowd which occupied it. There was also a crowd at the corner of Fleet-street, when a person, who seemed to emerge from the crowd (Dr. Gray), demanded permission to pass through Westmorland-street. Broderick refused compliance, and requested that the Doctor would go round by Fleet-street, as other gentlemen had done. The Doctor insisted on his right to pass, and being again refused, he pot his band to the breaatof the police man and pushed him about two feet from where he had been standing. The constable then seized the Doctor, who caught the constable by his belt, and pulled him off the footway, whereupon the Doctor was arrested, brought to the station-house, and charged with having committed an assault. Constable Green corroborated the evidence of Brode rick in all that was material. Benjamin Tydd, inspector of the A division of police, stated at great length the arrangement which he made under the direction s of Insp ector Walsh, for clearing d'Olier-street and Westmorla nd-s treet of the mobs but his evidence did not bear on t h e Doctor's case. ' In reply to questions put by Mr. O'H E A, as counsel for Doctor Gray, Tydd stated that, in his opinion, Con stable Broderick had exceeded his duty in refusing to let Doctor Gray pass, and Tydd aided that he would not have refused the request of the Doctor, had he (Tydd) been in Broderick's case. Mr. O'Hea—Oh, when an illegal act has been perpe trated a menial must be sacrificed. The Learned Counsel then insisted that the police had no right to prevent a peaceable citizen from passing, and that Doctor Gray would have yielded or submitted to an illegal act if he had not asserted and insisted on his right. to the aid of . Mr. liercacocK, who had COMA Tyndall, said the magistrate viewed the case as one rais ing the question whether Dr. Gray had pressed his right to pass in an unjustifiable manner; and in coming to a conclusion on that, he was very much assisted by the admission of Inspector Tydd, that Broderick bad ex ceeded his duty, and was, consequently, the first ag gressor. The MAGISTRATES, therefore, discharged the case, and Dr. Gray stood acquitted. Inspector Walsh said he was also of the same opinion as Inspector Tydd, as he (Walsh) had declared to Dr. Gray on arriving at the station-house, when he intimated to the Doctor that the charge would be withdrawn. The Doctor would not accept of his proposition. ?r. Gray said, his object in having the case brougg before the bench was to establish the right of the subject, as there were many poor persona in custody who had not the means of asserting their rights. Finally all the accused were discharged. REJOICINGS IN THE COUNTRY .—The provincial papers and letters say, that on Wednesday and Thursday night, the hills in the counties of Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Clare, Tipperary, and other counties were studded with great fires, in honour to Smith O'Brien and T. F. Meagheii, for " beating the Attorney-General." E SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, MAY 22, 1848. MEETING OF THE C ON FEDERATION.—The Irish Con federation are to hold a meeting to-morrow, for the purpose of " expressing the opinion of that body on the unconstitutional and despotic practice of packing juries." CROWN AND GOVERNMENT SECURITY On Wednesday, about three o'clock, P.M., the house of Maguire, of of sub Swanlinbar,wi th Templeport, twenty w m a was nw visited h o charge unday, of a th Sedition. e ch a p l e t l a p oi Templeport, a docum ent was exhibite d for the purpose byefir.ar arrested HughC o n s t a b l e tah M t r . on thea o f enrolling the name s of those who w ere willing to join the National Gua rd, advised b y the Confe derates.

Subsequently the paper was removed to Mr. Maguire's house, as being convenient to the chapel. The police having heard of this, proceeded, as before stated, to Mr. Maguire's house, and arrested him. They also searched the premises, and discovered the document ment i one d, with a copy of the speech lately delivered by Mr. Smith O'Brien in the House of Commons. They brought their prisoner before B. W. Holmes, Esq., R.M., who committed him to Cavan gaol, refusing to take bail for his appearance. The following is a copy of the com mittal : " County of Cavan, To the Governor of Cavan gaol. to wit.

An other man, named Michael Gray, has been arrested in Ballyjamesdaff, under the new penal law ; but we have not yet heard the exact charge preferred against him.— Anglo• Celt. __ _ CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT THIRD COURT. William Kennerley, 17, James King, alias TVillmott, 23, and John Williams, 18, were indicted, Kennerley for feloniously breaking and entering the dwelling house of William Webb, and committing larceny therein, and the other two prisoners were charged with having feloniously aided and abetted Kennerley to commit the said felony. The evidence was very clear, and the jury con victed all three of the prisoners. A witness, named Bailey, was called to speak to Kennerley's character. He swore that his character wa s good, while it was shown by the police that he had been mixed up in a robbery of a watch, and had been in custody. Mr. Commissioner BULLOCK ordered the witness to be taken into custody for perjury, and he was con veyed to Newgate. Williams and Willmott were sentenced to be trans ported for seven years ; Kennerley to twelve months' hard labour. Sarah Prosser, 27, was indicted for stealing a gold watch and chain, a diamond ring, a gold mourning ring, two silver watches, some gold hair pins, and other articles, value 501., the property of her master, Mr. John Theodore, the landlord of the Stag public house, Fulham-road. Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution. From the statement of the Learned Counsel in opening the case, and the evidence Riven, it appeared that the prisoner had been in the employ of Mr. Theodore as servant of all-work, but she had only been engaged a month when the robbery took place. On Tuesday, the 25th of April, having received an intimation from the barmaid, Mrs. Theodore went up to her bed-room, when she found that a drawer in which she kept her jewellery and money had been opened, and its valuable contents stolen. Mrs. Theo dore had seen her property safe about half an hour previously, and a search was instantly made in other parts of the house, when it was discovered that two other rooms had been entered and property stolen therefrom. The police were at once communicated with, and Inspector Cummins and a subordinate officer proceeded to examine the persons in the house, for he had seen quite sufficient to satisfy him self that the robbery had been committed by some person well acquainted with the house, and having a knowledge of the exact place where the valuables were kept. The barman saw the prisoner go up stairs just as the family had sat down to dinner, and that was a few minutes after Mrs. Theodore had seen her property safe. He was quite sure no one else went up for 23 minutes after, and the, robbery was discovered in less than 25 minutes after she had gone up. Two men were seen to leave the tap-room in a hurried manner, and directly afterwards the prisoner left the same room, proceeding, to avoid observa tion, through the skittle-ground, through a narrow yard, and through a back window, into the kitchen. Mrs. Theodore saw her in the act of getting through the window, and when asked why she did it, she made no answer. She denied to Inspector Cummins that she had been up stairs that day at all, and suspicion arising from the above circumstances, she was taken into custody en the following Thursday. When locked up at the station-house, she requested a fellow-prisoner to write to her mother, and told her to say in the letter that, although she was charged with the robbery, " none of the property was found, nor ever would be." Not a tittle of the property had been discovered. These were the whole of the circumstances against the prisoner. The prisoner said in her defence that the barman had frequently said in the kitchen that anybody might get into Mrs. Theodore's bedroom from the bagatelle-room, and that he was sure that some day or other the house would be robbed. The barmaid had also expressed fears on the same subject. She then made a series of charges against the young woman who she asked to write a letter to her mother. The witnesses were recalled, and distinctly denied the statements made by the prisoner. The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and it was then proved that she had admitted, whilst in the cell, having stolen 28 sovereigns from a former master, and that master was now in attendance to depose to his loss. Mr. Commissioner BuLLocx sentenced the pri soner to be transported for ten years. Henry Gherred was convicted of stealing a watch and chain, value 151., the property of Lieut. Fox, of the 12th Lancers, from the officer's room at Houn slow cavalry barracks, where the prisoner was occa sionally employed as a stableman. Sentence was deferred till next session. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. John Clark and James Henry Bradbury were charged with having forged a cheque for 3711. 7s. 4d. The prisoners had been partially examined on a for mer occasion. It appeared from the evidence of Timothy New bound, that he had advertised for a situation on the 18th of April last, and he received an answer to the advertisement containing the address, " Mr. Thomp son, East India Chambers, two o'clock to-morrow." He went to the place appointed, and saw the prisoner Bradbury, who called him to the corner of Lime street. After some conversation, witness was desired to meet Bradbury again, which he did, and was then engaged by him for a friend, whose name he said was Bird. Another appointment was made at the Custom house, when Bradbury gave witness a cheque for 3711. 7s. 4d., to get cashed at Lubbock's bank, and told him if any questions were asked, he was to say that the cheque was from Messrs. Hurst and Co., and was given him by Mr. Thompson. Upon the cheque being paid, he was asked by the clerk from whom he came, and answered as he was desired. Witness then returned to the Custom-house, and gave the money to Bradbury, who, after directing witness to meet him again on Tuesday following, called a cab and drove off. He had not seen Bradbury since that time until he was brought up and charged with forgery. Wit ness had taken the number of the cab in which Brad bury had gone off. The cab-driver was called, who said he had taken two persons, very like the prisoners, to the Golden Cross and Hatchet's Hotel, but he could not swear to their identity. The cheque was drawn upon Messrs. Hawes, soap boilers, and was proved to be a forgery. Mr. Mullins, for the prosecution, said it would be necessary to have the prisoners remanded from time to time, for the purpose of producing further witnesses, The prisoners w ere remanded. M A and RL a BOROUGH-STREET. Two boy s gir ila; . who ckb Hardwick, r n r , gave were brought before Ann B Awa nicdk, Johnt c h h e a r n g a e names e w s i t o h f James Blackburn, We a thers, hav i n g picked the p oc k et of Mary P r i ce , o f h er purse, containing three sovereigns and some silver. George Mitchell, footman to Mrs. Onslow, No. 11, York-terrace, Regent's -park, said— About half-past twelve o'clock that day, h e was stan di ng ou t o f the w et in Robert s-gateway, opposite Park-lane, where the prosecutrix was also standing for shelter, when he sa w the three prisoners come up the gateway. The boy Blackburn came behind him, and on looking round he saw Blackburn pass something to the girl, his sister.

MARY Q 7.11, Camden Villa, Camden town,wanted, was charged on a warrant with ha vin g Richard Oburn, coachman to Mrs. Matthews, 10, Queen-street, Mayfair. Mr. Mellor, the barrister, attended for complainant, and Mr. Finch, a solicitor, for the defendant. The hearing of the case occupied the attention of the Court nearly an hour and a half, and the allega • tion against the defendant was, that on Friday last he drove his carriage against that of Mrs. Matthews in Hyde Park, and that in consequence of his reckless ness in so doingit was a great mercy that nothing serious occurred. After the collision he (defendant) made off as fast as he was able, and his progress was at length stopped on his reaching a turnpike-gate. Complainant, who had closely pursued him, came up with him and laid hold of his horse's head, upon which the defendant committed upon him a violent assault, at the same time using language of a very gross and abusive nature. The witnesses on the part of complainant were cross-examined at some length, but nothing was elicited from them which was calcu lated to throw a doubt upon the correctness of their testimony. The matter was ultimately disposed of by Mr. Long fining the defendant 40s. for the assault. In the course of the inquiry some very irritating language took place between Mr. Mellor, the counsel, and the defendant, the latter of whom, on leaving the court, called the former by opprobrious epithets. Mr. Mellor hereupon returned to the Justice-room, and having deposed to the fact of defendant having uttered the words named, he (defendant) was ordered to enter into his own recognizance in 201., to keep the peace for three months. A very respectably-dressed man, named William Graham, was charged with the following very artful and impudent robbery : It appeared that, on the previous evening, the pri soner went into the shop of Mr. Wilson, Crawford street, and begged that he might be allowed to remain for a few minutes, as he expected to meet there his wife, who was desirous of fitting on some shoes for one of the children. After waiting for some time, and his wife not being forthcoming, he took his de parture, saying that he would call again, and almost immediately after he had quitted, a pair of woman's shoes was missed. He was pursued and captured, and he then dropped the stolen property on the pave ment.—He was committed for trial. operate with caution, and the export demand is unusually small. Arrivals are likewise upon a more enlarged scale. Rapeseed Oil is wanted, and as there is only a limited sup ply,with an increasing consumption, pries rule firm. Du seed Oil met with less attention for home trade purposes this week 4 few export orders were completed. Althou4h there is only a moderate supply, yet prices suffered a depression.

PRICES OF SHARES. IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM PANIES' STOCK. From the Official List, THE UNITED IRISHMAN. The following extracts from the United Irishman, of this day, show that Mr. Mitchel cannot have a serious apprehension that he will be convicted at the commis sion:— A letter, addressed " To the Protestant Farmers, La bourers, and Artisans of the North of Ireland," concludes with these passages— " Now, before undergoing any of my trials—while I have still the use of pen and paper—l wish to say to you that I am more than ever convinced the way I have been taking is the true and only way to deal with the Go vernment,' to right the wrongs of working men, and to achieve liberty for our country. Let the plain truth be told, the plain truth be acted, felony or no felony. Let Irishmen, north or south, reflect upon t hat maxim, the life of one peasant is equal to the life of one peer; and follow it out to its consequences, whithersoever it may lead, be that through prisons, or anarchy, or reigns of terror, or rivers of blood—and, above all things, remem ber, that no good thing can come from the English Par liament or the English Government. " For me, I abide my fate joyfully; for I know that, whatever betide me, my work is nearly done. Yes; moral force and Patience and Perseverance,' are scattered to the wild winds of Heaven. The music my countrymen now love best to hear, is the rattle of arms and the ring of the rifle. As I sit here, and write in my lonely cell, I hear, just dying away, the measured tramp of ten thousand marching men—my gallant Confederates, un armed and silent, but with hearts like bended bow, wait ing till the time comes. They have marched past my prison windows to let me know there are ten thousand fighting men in Dublin—' felons' in heart and soul. " I thank God for it. The game is a-foot at last. The liberty of Ireland may come sooner or come later, by peaceful negotiation or bloody conflict—but it is sure ; and wherever between the poles I may chance to be, I will hear the crash of the downfall of the thrice-accursed British Empire.' "JOHN MITCHEL." In the answers to correspondents this advice is given— *" J. F.. Dublin.'—Yes ; now, indeed, is the time to get change for your notes, if ever you mean to do it. This day week a ten-pound ticket may not be worth a bad farthing, and stock debentures and savings bank cheque-books, and all that, may have got a cheque they will not recover easily."

We find the capital of the new branch banks set down at 23,350,000 fr., and their reserve at 2,980,650 fr., and their notes i❑ circulation at 89,089,400 fr. In comparing the returns of the past week with the preceding one, we find that the reserve has increased in the Paris establishment 4,300,000 fr., whilst for the branch banks (the new ones included) the sum down is about 19,300,000 fr. more than the week before. The bills becoming due in Paris are again lower in amount by 5,500,000 fr., whilst in the branch banks they are not less than 91,000,000 fr. more, the new banks of course being included. The protested bills amount to 26,468,540fr.,0r about 700,000 fr. more than the preceding week. The notes in circulation in the Paris establishment are 4,800,000 fr. more in amount, whilst in the old branch banks they are 2,700,0001 r. less. The account current of the treasury has increased 7,200,000 fr., and those of private individuals about 1,000,000 fr. The whole of the reserve amounts to 127,700,0001 r. to 404,000,0001 r. of notes in circulation, the new banks being included in both cases. ROYAL NATAL ScaooL.—The tenth anniversary festival of this excellent institution was celebrated by a sumptuous banquet at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate street, on Saturday evening last, Rear-Admiral the Right Hon. the Earl of Waldegrave in the chair. About 70 gentlemen sat down to dinner ; amongst the most dis tinguished of whom were—Rear-Admiral Bowles, C. 8., M.P., the Lord Bishop of Chichester, Sir E. Belcher, Admiral Sir J. Ommanney, K.C.8., Rev. Archdeacon Robinson (Master of the Temple), the Rev. Dr. Morti mer, Rev. T. Chambers, Rev. R. Middlemist, P. Harde wick, Esq., F. Somes, Esq., F. Brand, Esq., Alaric Watts, Esq., J. Godfrey Teed, Esq., the Hon. Captain Knox, Captain Lamont, Captain Matson, Capt. Whish, and Captain P. Clarke. The primary object of the Royal Naval School permanently fixed on the corporate pro perty at New Cross, Deptford, is to enable the less affluent naval and marine officers, of not lower than ward-room rank, to give their sons a sound general edu cation, combined with moral and religious instruction, at the least possible expense consistent with the further object of bestowing the same education gratuitously, or at a very reduced charge, on a limited nufnber of the sons of such officers in necessitous circumstances, giving a prefer ence to the orphans of those who may have fallen in the country's service. The school has accommodation for 250 pupils, but the number at present under training within it is 178 boys. The course of instruction pur sued in the establishment is of a liberal and appropriate character, and embraces the classical languages, navi gation, mathematics, &c. In the course of the evening the Noble Chairman remarked, that he had recently personally inspected the institution, which was carried on in a splendid building, fitted up with every conveni ence for the health and comfort of the pupils; only five out of the whole number (178) were in hospital. He could not refrain from expressing his high admiration of the system of training, combining moral, religious, and secular tuition, prosecuted within the walls; and ho earnestly trusted the public would come liberally forward w ith increased funds to strengthen the hands of the committee in extending its benefits in quarters where its advantages were still more desiderated.—(Cheers.) Before the company separated a subscription, amounting to about 3601.; was collected in the room. The convi viality of the evening was much enhanced by the musical efforts of the Misses Williams and the Messrs. Jolley, Hatton, and Machin. A group of the fair sex occupied a gallery, and manifested (as is their wont) a deep in terest in the proceedings of so laudable an institution.

It originated, from same unexplained cause, in the back room first floor, and before it was discovered had ob tained considerable hold of the premises, so that it was with great difficulty the several occupants were enabled to escape. The buildi❑g, which was partially gutted, was iasured in the Sun Fire-office; but, unfortunately, the occupants were uninsured. LAMBETH. Joseph Hopkins and Mary Ward, middle-aged persons, of respectable appearance, were placed at the bar before the Hon. G. C. Norton, on a charge of being concerned in an extensive robbery at the dwell ing.house of Mrs. Mary Skillington, a widow lady, residing with her son at Brixton. Mr. Vickery attended for the prisoners. From the evidence it appeared, that Mrs. Skilling ton, on the 15th of last month, went to market, and on her return home she discovered that during her absence the house had been entered by the back door ; that the drawers and cupboards were forced upen, and 1001. in bank notes, 2.51. in gold and silver, a gold watch, a silver watch, and plate to the value of about 40/. carried away. Some time after four of the stolen notes was paid into the Bank of England, and these were traced to the possession of the pri soners, who lived as man and wife in Singleton street, Hoxton. When apprehended, the female pri soner said she received the 101. note, which she changed at the house of Mr. Walker, the Royal Oak, Hoxton,from a gentleman, but subsequently admitted that she got it from Hopkins. Hopkins acknowledged the truth of Ward's state ment, and said that he had won the four notes at a gambling-house in the vicinity of Leicester-square. The evidence, as far as it went, was taken against the prisoners, and they were ordered for trial, but will be brought up again preparatory to their final com mitment to Newgate. MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

The rise for the week is 6d, and in some cases Is per cwt; the total sales are 1,850 hhds and trcs. The market for all sorts of Sugar closes firmer.

The Conservatives, satisfied with having one representative in the House of Commons, did not offer at all to interfere in the present election, and thus the Liberal party bid the field to themselves. They, however, could not agree. The eldest son of Sir William Milner wa s brought fore ward, but when he came to enumerate his political Frio' ciples, it was found that he went too far for some, and OS tar enough for others, more particularly as regards the reform movement of the day. The party thus begone disunited; but, although there mere rumour s of opPoiti". tion, there was no appearance of it until last evening, when it was positively announced that M r. Henry Via; suf cent would present himself as a candidate for the trages of the electors, on the following day, and t his an' nouncement was followed by the issue of an address fro el s° se Mr. Sergeant Wilkins, in which that gem stated his intention of contesting the ♦vacant seat. T h. Learned Sergeant arrived in York th is morning, by She mail train, and he was quickly folloae d by Mr. Vinc ent ' who reached this city in the course of the forenoon.
