EVENING SUN. THE ACTION AGAINST THE " TIMES" NEWSPAPER. (From the Times.) BOGLE U. LAWSON. If we are desirous that attention should be directed to the case of" Bogle v. Lawson," which was tried at Croy don before Lor:d Chief Justice Tindal on Monday last, it is not from any disposition to obtrude upon public notice matters in which we are ourselves personally concerned. The occasion would call for remark, even if we were not so immediately interested in it as we are. It is seldom that proceedin g s have taken place in a Court of Justice better calculated to illustrate, on the one hand, the na tional benefit of an independent press, and, on the other, the risks, difficulties. harassing expenses, and formidable responsibilities which those who conduct the public press must be prepared to encounter, if they are determined fearlessly and impartially to discharge their duty. It is now fifteen months since we received from a cor respondent at Brussels, on whom we had reason to place implicit reliance, copies of a judicial examination which had then lately taken place in Belgium, and of certain letters which had been intercepted by the police of that country. These documents furnished us with the parti culars of a iuost singular and extensive conspiracy for fraudulent purposes, in which various persons of name . and influence, Englishmen as well as foreigners, ap pearod to be implicated. The papers left no doubt upon our mindS as to the guilty participation in' the scheme of eleven individuals, two only of whom were then in the hancl:; of justice. That our readers may understand fully the importance to the commercial Nvorld of a complete and searching ex posure of this infamous anir, we will here mention a few of tio2 prominent facts which were proved or ad mitted upon the recent trial. Of the conspirators, one was a French Marquis, most respectably connected by marriage in this country. Another was a Baron, the son of a most distinguished General of the empire and Peer of France. The third was a Count. The fourth was a Scotch gentleman, most highly connected, who for many years had represented the .hounty of Stirling in Parliament ; and the fifth was his son. The principal partner of a banking-house in high credit at Florence was asserted to be a sixth; and besides these there were numerous other inferior agents and accomplices, both male and female. Such were the circumstances and po sition in society of thq parties, and it must he admitted that a more formidable banditti, or one against which it would be more difficult for men of business to be upon their guard, never was organised. 'The parties, having settled their plan of' operations, resolved to attack the commercial world in the tenderest poi et. Every one knows what wonderf u l f ac iliti es ei Ir.ve been given of late years to travellers upon the Ceatieent, through the medium of circular letters of credit from the principal bankers of London. Such is the reputation of British commerce in every part of the world, so universally known and appreciated are the stability and punctuality in business of the great London houses, that a letter of .credit from Messrs. Coutts and Co., or Messrs. Glyn and Co. : is as 'readily recogni ze d an d as un h es i tat i ng l y honoured in Alexandria or Smyrna, as if it were pre sented in Lombard-street or the Strand. But the very circumstances which make this letter-of-credit system so great an accommodation to the traveller, make it also peculiarly open to the machinations of fraud, it being al most impossible that every one of the thirty or forty firms, in different. cities to whom every circular letter of credit is addressed (and to the great majority of whom no one letter is likely to be presented), should in every case be advised of the fact that such a letter has been issued by the London house. Money, .therefore, is unavoidably advanced upon these letters, in the ordinary course of business, without advice ; and for this reason the Marquis de Bourbel and his companions determined to carry on their fraud by means of forged letters of credit. We need hardly remark, that in proportion as the present facilities of, travelling are valuable to the public, and in proportion also to the difficulty of guarding against this description of fraud, it was important that a conspiracy which threatened, if carried much furthee, to discredit circular letters altogether;should be unsparingly exposed. The conspirators having selected Messrs. Glyn, Hali fax;, Mills, and Co., as the firm whose name they should Use (no British banking firm having a more extensive mercantile connection), succeeded in possessing them , - selves of one of their genuine - letters of credit, and in producing so perfect an imitation, both of the body of the letter and of the signature, that one of the partners of that house, when placed in the witness-box on Monday iast, was at first unable to distinguish between the forgery and a genuine letter. With this instrument, multiplied by numerous copies, they carried on their schemes of de predation with surprising rapidity, and had they not been wholly deficient in caution, might have escaped detectioti for a much longer period than they did. The deposi tions put in at the trial proved that, within the space of a few days, they succeeded in obtaining, upon these forged letters of credit, upwards of 10,000/. It cannot be necessary for us to go into any further details to show that, as journalists enjoying an extensive circulation in this great commercial country, we should have been greatly wanting to our duty if we had ne glected to give publicity to the facts relative to so unpre cidented a conspiracy, as soon as they came to us in an authentic form ; and more especially to the names of the guilty parties. Least of all should we have been yeititied in suppressing the name of a person situated like Bugle (the plaintiff in the late action), at the he . ad of a banking establishment of credit and connection in the mercantile world, after satisfying ourselves of his guilt upon evidence sufficient to produce moral conviction in any unprejudiced mind. We .did so satisfy ourselves, and we published his name accordingly—whether upon ittsuilieitent grounds we leave to-be inferred from the ver dict of the jury, which has estimated Mr. Bogle's cha racter at the value of one farthing. We feel that, under these circumstances, we may fairly take to ourselves the praise of having done some service to the public by the disclosures which involved us in the recent vexatious and costly proceedings. If so, we are entitled to ask, if it is not unjust and unreasonable that a journalist, who does no more than his duty in a case of this sort, should be put to the alternative of eithei de ceiving the public and promoting the designs of thieves by recanting - statements in which all the mercantile world is interested, which he has published upon clear evidence, and which he knows to be true, or else of being forced, at his own expence, to trace out and collect the legal proofs of a mass of transactions distributed all over the continent of Europe, in the face of unparalleled diffi culties of every kind ? For more than a year have we been engaged in making p re p ar a t i ons f or t hi s tr i a l ; and law has done its worst to bully us into submission. Let our solicitor tell his own tale :—" Mr. Dobie was exa mined by Sir W. Follett: Is the acting attorney for the defendant in this case. He went abroad on the 10th of Au gust, 1840,`,.f0r, the purpose of collecting evidence. Viiited for that purpose, Paris, Brussels, Ostend, Genoa, Turin, Bologna:Florence, Parma, Cologne, Liege, Ghent, Antwerp, and Coblcntz. He visited all the principal towns on the Continent, where forgeries had been com mitted and bankers had been robbed. He made fre quent attempts to procure the original letters. Applied several times to the Garde des Sceaux, but did not at first obtain any answer from him. The Procureur du IN said it was impossible to have the use of the origina' letters." The greatest hardship of alLeonsists in this, that after all the trouble and expense to which we have been put, and after obtaining what every man, woman, and child, knows to be virtually a verdict in our favour, we are still debarred, in the present state of the English law, froin that common measure of justice which gives a de fendant, harassed by groundless litigation, a claim upon his adversary for his costs of suit. We do not complain of the nominal verdict for the plaintiff ; it was the neces sary rest& of the rule of law which compelled the jury (as instructed by the Learned Judge) to exclude from their consideration those letters of the conspirators, Bourbel and Graham, in which Bogle's name was men tioned, and upon which our own conviction of Bogle's gnilt.was originally ;rounded. We d o not a ll ege that there was direct evidence sufficiently- clear to have con victed Bogie, had he been then placed on his trial for a criminal offence ; but we do that, in a case where the Jury decide that the plaintiff's character had s us _ tained no injury, the defendant is morally and equitably entitled to his costs, whatever may be the formal ver dict ; and if the Legislature does not wish to throw im pediments in the way of the discharge of the most useful functions of the Dress, we are entitled to demand, and expect - protection for the future against such unreason able lia.nilities as those to which the recent action has shown us to be exposed.

GLOBE.—We have all along expressed our thorough conviction of the fact that there is a schism in the Con servative camp, and we have invariably been met by protestations from the Tory press that the party is in a state of the most blissful unity. At length, however, the ill-suppressed bickerings between the organs that wish to be, the organs that are to be, and the organs that profess to be, have broken forth into open disagree ment, the immediate cause of which is the bold avowal of the Times that it condemns the present Corn-laws, and forbears from writing them down chiefly be cause it believes that to put them down will be one of the first acts of the Conservative Government. Against this doctrine the Post of this morning has pro tested in terms unsually strong : in one portion of its article it actually goes so far as to threaten to respond to the thunder of Printing-house-square with the light ning of its own ridicule I We are, however, spared the infliction of our Contemporary's liveliness by the neces sity which, he feels, compels him to be " severe ;" and he consequently proceeds to belabour the Times with the cudgels of rebuke, instead of drawing the small sword of wit for the more skilful purpose of pink ing him. In sober eartnestness, there is at the very threshold of power a most serious division in the Conservative ranks. It is flow no longer a question of importance to know what Sir Robert Peel in tends.; but the inquiry must be changed into " How much of his intentions will his party permit him to execute ?" The answer is clear, that he will be able to do nothing. Neither section of politicians will be in duced, with regard to the Corn-laws, to give way; for while anti-monopoly is immoveable from its firm position on the rock of principle, monopoly is stuck irretrievably in the slough of self-interest. If Sir Robert Peel propi tiates the advocates of the former by concessions on the Corn-laws, he cannot count on their support for his ge neral policy ; while, if he endeavours to satisfy the de mandants of continued restriction, he will only fall into that " mire" which the Post has already spoken of, when alluding to the new Parliament. STANDARD.—We have again to offer that most ungracious and unpalateable of all admonitions, to a very numerous body of correspondents—we must inculcate the policy of patience. No day passes in which we do not receive many letters, generally commencing with "Now that the country is sure of a Conservative Govern ment," or some equivalent phrase, and ending with a proposition, generally excellent in itself, and mom• mended by good arguments; but, as we must respectfully submit, premature, as all propositions of measures to be carried by a Conservative Government must be at present. In the first place, the country is not sure of a Conservative Government as a matter of course. We have seen the country governed for years by a ministry without an effectual majority in the House of Commons, and without any majority in the House of Lords ; and how unconstitutional soever such a course may be, after-the vote of the 4th June, there is no assu rance that the attempt may not be persevered in. By straining the privilege of Parliament no doubt the Minis ters may ba forcibly ejected ; but it must always be a grave question with Conservatives, if they are what they profess to be, whether ultimately more mischief will not be done by forcing the in clinations of the Sovereign than can be caused by a temporary submission to them. There can be, and there is no doubt that our beloved Queen wishes ' to govern in the spirit of the Constitution—the most am ple reli ance may be placed upon her Majesty's good r good di s p os i t i ons • an d i n dealing with a Sove e tho u ign so intellient and so disposed, it may well be ght advisable to resign to time and to her own good sense the . offic e of in s t ruc ti n g her. Let th e present men, as t h ey have QC o n n e s e t n i t c u n t i n o n n t; proceeded b so far in viol a ti on of the tr fail l the whole length of their t e th er . Th e to see d before long what it is to continue an Administrati on time for jealousy of the Sovereign's by ' her Parliament. ent i . The e passed by —we say eir:Fins unhappily ought to be very unhappily,powerftbecausewe the and all power is the object of a just jealousy —the time for a P jealousy of j ibe Sovereign's power has unhappily passed by, and there fore, Parliament makes no r ea l sacrifice in submitting to a temporary oblivion of constitutional principles, where the prerogative is concerned ; such a submission, is in the times in which we live an err or on the rightt side. Above all, Conservatives ought not to be extreme in controlling the wishes of the 'Sovereign. If, th ere f ore , Ministers shall muster courage to retain office in de fiance of future defeats and condemnations, as they have retained office in defiance of former defeats and condem nations, and if they should prevail upon her Afajesty, as they have before prevailed upon her, to sup port them in their unconstitutional course, we can easily imagine the Conservative majority still abstaining from a refusal of the supplies, or any other perempt ory pro cess of ejectment—maintaining still the even tenour of their way--defeating ill measures, and introducing good measures as far as it is open to an opposition to do so—. and exercising a vigilant, though not vexatious censor ship upon the Ministerial acts of the executive. It is by such conduct they have reached their present noble position, and by a perseverance in such conduct they will still more highly exalt it. FROIII LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE. BANKRUPTCIES SUPERSEDED.

A CLERGYMAN KILLED.—On Thursday, whilst Mr. Payne, the City Coroner, was officiating in his ordinary duties of Clerk to the Magistrates at Guildhall, he re ceived information of the death of the Rev. William Rust Cobbold, the incumbent of a parish in Hampshire, who had been killed under the following melancholy circum stances :—lt appears that the Rev. Mr. C►►hbold; who is an elderly gentleman, was, shortly after eight o'clock on Friday evening last, crossing from the south to the north side of Ludgate-hill, nearly opposite to the Belle Sauvage, at which inn he was staying, when he was knocked down by the chest of the horse attached to the Portsmouth mail-cart, and before the horse could be ' pulled up the wheel of the cart passed over him in an horizontal direction, crushing his right leg and thigh, and otherwise fearfully injuring his stomach, chest, and shoulder. City Police-sergeant Evans, 302, who was on duty near the spot and saw the occurrence, immediately picked the deceased up, and conveyed him, in an appa rently lifeless state, to the shop of Mr. Ponton, surgeon, of Ludgate-hill, who advised .his immediate removal to his apartments at. the Belle Sauvage, where he received the attentions of several medical men. He lingered in great agony until Thursday morning, when he expired from the dreadful injuries he had sustained. Mr. Payne has appointed the Inquest to be held yesterday, and the driver of the mail-cart was taken into custody and lodged in the Compter, to await the result' of the in quiry. INQUEST ON THE BODY. Yesterday afternoon a lengthened investigation was entered upon before Mr. PAYNE, and a highly respect able Jury, at the Belle Sauvage Inn, Ludgate-hill, to in quire into the circumstances causing the death of the Rev. Wm. Rust Cobbold. Geo. Elset Evans, a sergeant in the City Police force, stated, that about eight o'clock on Friday, the 13th inst., be perceived one of the mail carts coming down Ludgate hill at a rapid pace, and almost immediately after, the deceased, who was crossing the street, was struck by the chest of the horse, and the wheel of the cart passed over his person from the shoulder downwards to the hip. The driver immediately pulled up, and witness found the cart to be the Portsmouth mail, and bore the name of William Chaplin, Swan with Two Necks, Lad-lane. The guard who accompanied the mail hams begged that the driver might be allo we d t o proceed,'' the time allowed to take the bags being limited, which witness consented to on condition of the guard being responsible for the driver's appearance. The deceased was then re moved to the shop of Mr..Ponton, surgeon, of 42, Lud gate-hill, and - his injuries attended to. The deceased, who told witness that at the time of the accident he was going to Kennington, was able to walk, with the assist ance of a constable, from Mr. Ponton's to his lodgings, at the Belle Sauvage." By a Juror—The streets were almost clear of car riages at the time of the accident. By the CORONER—The driver was on the proper side of the street, and quite sober. He also expressed much regret for the accident. The cart was going at the rate of about seven miles an hour. After several other witnesses had been examined, touching the circumstances of the accident, whose evi dence, however, was nothing more than a repetition of Sergeant Evans's, Mr. Ponton said, that on Friday evening the deceased was brought into his surgery, and he being from home, his assistant upon examination found the shoulder dislocated, which he set, and deceased left. On the fol- lowing Sunday witness went to deceased's lodgings, and found that the bone had again slipped from the socket. He again set it, and on further examination found two ribs were broken, which he treated according to the usual practice. He considered death to be caused by weakness of the constitution arising from the injuries, and the deceased's extreme old age. By a Juror—His assistant had not a diploma from any College, but he considered him perfectly competent to practice as a surgeon. The deceased being of rather an obese habit, rendered it more difficult to discover the fracture of the ribs. The dislocated bone might a second time slip from the socket, on account of the muscular relaxation, as well as on account of improper bandages. A gentleman named Morgan, whom we understood to be a relative of the deceased, identified the body as that of William Rust Cobbold, a clergyman residing at Sel burn, in Yorkshire. He asked some questions of Mr. Ponton concerning his attendance on the deceased, as he had been informed deceased was under the impression that the assistant was a principal in the establishment. He was anxious to investigate the case thoroughly, as Mr. Cobbold was at a distance from his friends and rela tives at the time, and consequently rendered the faithful discharge of the medical attendants' duty the more imperative. In justice, however, to Mr. Ponton, he felt bound to state that the deceased was on Tuesday visited by Mr. Copeland, an eminent surgeon, who said he considered he was then going on well ; however, on Wednesday he got worse, and expired on Thursday morning. He was sixty-eight years of age, and, as well as he (Mr. M.) could perceive, was defective in neither sight nor hearing. The CORONER having summed up, the Jury retired to a private room, and after a long deliberation re turned a verdict that the deceased came by his death accidentally, but at the same time they should record their opinion that the deceased had not had the proper medical attendance which his case required. The driver of the cart, whose name is John Maslcell, was present during the inquiry, and at its termination bhi; employer gave him a very high character for so riety and steadines PRICES OF BREAD IN PARIS AND LONDON. The present assize, or fixed price of bread, of the first quality, in Paris, as established by the Municipal Authorities of that City, for the second fortnight of the current month of August, is 33 centimes for the loaf weighing one kilogramme, which, at the present course of exchange in Paris, on Lon don, for bills at one month's date, or short paper, of 25f. 30c., money, per pound sterling, corresponds with five pence half . - penny and seven-tenths of a farthing for the English four-pound loaf. The present price of the best, or, as it is termed, full-priced bread, b e i ng e l even - pence f or t h e four pound loaf (although all bakers have not yet advanced it, but such price is on the point of being generally demanded), shows that the best bread is dearer in London than in Paris by five-pence farthing and three. tenths of a farthing, or, in other fivepence and one-third o f a penny, and that of the same amount money, namely, ele ven - pence, as above, which can p w u o r rds cha, bf purchase in London no more than four pounds of the best bread, there may be obtained, in Paris, seven pounds, twelve ounces, and nearly three drachms, English weight, of bread of the first quality. LAW INTELLIGENCE ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT—Croydon, August 20. STAKES, CLERK, V. JOHN STEWART, EARL OF DARNLEY, SAVAGE, AND OTHERS. This was a feigned issue to try the liability of certain lands in the parish of Cobham, in Kent, to the payment of tithe to the Vicar. The declaration charged that the lands in question were liable to the payment. of tithe in kind, the defendants pleaded they were not, and upon this issue was joined. Mr. Thcsiger, Mr. Sergeant Channel, Mr. Peacock, and Mr. Smith, were for the plaintiff ; Mr. Platt, Mr. Chambers, and Mr. Bremwell, for the defendants. Mr. TIIESIGER stated the case, When the Learned JUDGE intimated that from the nature of the case, it was utterly impossible that any decision come to at the presant time could be final, and as he would not attempt to give a judgment as to the ad missibility of such a mass of documentary evidence, he should, under all the circumstances, feel it to be his duty to both parties to direct that a special case should be laid before the Judges ; and he therefore suggested that this course should be at once adopted, without going into the evidence, and occupying two or three days at least of the public time, when no result could be obtained. After some argument, it was arranged that a verdict for the plaintiff should be taken, subject to a special case. ROUSE V. FIVAZ. This was an action of a rather extraordinary cha racter to recover the amount of a bill of exchange, by one John Ashell Lemon, and accepted by the defendant, for 331. 6s. Bd., and endorsed by the plaintiff. The defendant pleaded that the bill had been given to compound a felony, and that, therefore the plaintiff could not recover upon it. Mr. Platt and another were for the plaintiff, and Mr. Thesiger and Mr. Espinasse for the defendant. Peters, a clerk in the firm of Messrs. Winsborn and Collett, attorneys, of Chancery-lane, proved the de fendant's acceptance. Cross-examined—His employers were attorneys for Mr. Nicholls, to whom the bill was originally given. John Asbell Lemon, the drawer of- the bill in question, was clerk to Mr. Nicholls, and he was in custody at Union Hall, upon a charge of embezzlement, made against him by Mr. Nicholls. He was in custody till the 21st of November, and the bill was dated the 23d. Never saw or know the bill to be in the possession of the plaintiff till it became due. He was aware that some money transactions took place, and that more securities were to be given by Lemon. Mr. THESIGER addressed the Jury fur the defendant, and called witnews. Lord Chief-Justice TINDAL, in summing, observed, that the question the Jury had to decide was one of a most important character. The offence of compounding a felony, and this it was which was imputed by the de fendant to have taken place, was of a serious character, and by the law of England no security was of any value that was given for such a purpose, unless the person holding it had given real consideration for it. The Jury would have to say whether Rouse was put forward, nominally, to relieve Nicholls from the effect of the de fendant's plea, in which case he would stand in exactly the same position that he himself would have done; and, secondly, whether the charge of compounding a fe lony had been made out: Undoubtedly if it had been a mere question of debt, Nicholls would have been justi fied in seeking security from Lemon, but it certainly ap peared very strange that while the latter was in actual custody he should have demanded a security for 400/. for the appearance of Lemon after he was discharged, in order that he might give other securities to the same amount. The Jury, after a minute's deliberation, returned a verdict for the defendant. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.---Liverpool, Aug. 19. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice WIGIITDIAN.) HALL V. PROCTOR. This was an action of slander ;Mr. Creswell and Mr. Atherton for the plaintiff, Mr. Ramshay for the defence. The plaintiff and defendant are, it appeared, both in the colour trade in this town, and on the ith of April last happened to meet in a tavern in Brownlow-street, in this town. Some conversation took place between them as to a proposed sale by the defendant to the plaintiff o> a large quantity of ochre, and it was agreed that they should meet to settle the matter on the following day. Some little time after the defendant came over to the plaintiff's party, and offered to join them in a game of draughts. This was declined, and the defendant being somewhat irritated'at the circumstance, in the course of the conversation which ensued, struck the table with his hand so violently, as to break a glass. Some jesting took place as to getting up a penny subscription from the company to replace it, when the defendant at last be came very angry, and addressing the plaintiff said, " I am not a poor scrawl like you. I can pay my way, which you never could do. You're one of the biggest scoundrels and wastrels in Liverpool, and everybody knows it. I have heard it from a thousand. I should have at you myself, but you're not worth powder and shoe. I know a party will do you up before you're many days older." The plaintiff, thus addressed, re quested some persons who were present to take down the words, and expressed his determination to seek re dress at law for the aspersions thus cast upon his credit. He told the defendant he did not owe 10/. to any one in Liverpool, to which allegation the defendant gave the retort courteous, " You're a liar." The plaintiff did not resent this in the manner which such a declaration usually provokes, the defendant being without an arm. Some days after the defendant seemed to have thought better interfered, it the subject, and some mutua l f r i en d s h av i ng it was finally agreed that he should retract the expres sions, and pay for a champagne dinner for a party of twenty. He then expressed in strong terms, his regret at what had taken place, and intimated his feeling that the plaintiff had ample reason to have re sented the insult at the moment by personal chastise ment. Again, however, he chang e d his mind, an d de clined to mak e the amends required. The present action was proceeded with, and on the writ being served he reiterated expressions of similar tendency to the above, saying that the plaintiff was a swindling scoun drel, and the greatest scamp in Liverpool, and he could prove it. - Mr. Ramstuir, for the defendant, contended that the whole was a paltry squabble, which should not have oc cupied the public time for the period required by the investigation ; that the defendant had admitted that he had spoken rashly, and had made use of expressions he could nut justify, but refused to give the champagne dinner which had been capriciously required of him. He denied that he had repeated the slander, as alleged. A verdict was returned for the plaintiff—Damages 51. FRENCH SENTIMENT.—III a small commune of the department of the Gironde, two young people, Clement Garilsy and - Marie Albert, had formed an at tachment to each other, and were engaged to be married, when the lover was drawn for the army. At the begin ning of the present month they both disappeared, and their families were thrown into the utmost alarm, as Clement had often declared that he would rather kill Marie, than leave her to become the wife of another. On the Bth inst. these. apprehensions were lamentably verified. A sportsman shooting rabbits saw a human body lying in a cave-:amid the brushwood of the forest, and he directly fetched a Magistrate to the spot, with a medical man and other attendants. At the mouth of the cave were found a woman's cap, laid with evident care on a stone, and near it a man's handkerchief, a snuff-box, a powder•flask, and a bag of bullets. On entering the cave were seen the bodies of Clement and Marie, side by side. with a gun near them, which had been discharged, and was unquestionably the means of their destruction, as the heads of both were much shattered, although their features were still recognizable. The corpses were im mediately brought to the village, and buried together the same day, amidst the lamentations of their families and the whole community.—Galignanes Messenger. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—Aug. 20. (Before Mr. Commissioner FANE.) IN THE MATTER OF MR. W. BALFE. This being the day fixed for the final examination of the bankrupt, a few additional proofs of debt were ad mitted without opposition. A solicitor who attended for Mr. Mapleson (the copyist of Drury-lane Theatre) and other creditors, examined the bankrupt at considerable length, and it was substan tially as follows : You have, Mr. Balfe, been seen riding in gigs and a close carriage repeatedly. 'Were either of those vehicles your own 2—No, they were not. They were occasion ally lent me by kind friends, many of whose families I had professionally attended. Have you any plate or linen which you have not men tioned in your schedule, or given up to your creditors ? —No, I have not. You have lived in what is called "good style," and must certainly have had some " plate ?"--Yes, but it was very trifling in amount, Mrs. Balfe and I sat down toge ther at dinner, while the children were at school, and I could not afford my servants to dine off plate. You received 2,5051. Bs. 6d. during the time the Eng lish Opera-house was open ; pray, how did you expend that money ?—I expended every farthing of it in the theatre, as will appear by my books and cash account, which are now in the possession of the official assignee. Have you not had a very valuable gold snuff-box ? Yes, I had one, which was presented to me in Ireland ; but my necessities compelled me to part with it to a cre ditor, who still holds it, but for more than its intrinsic value as gold. Have you not had several valuable silver cups or vases ?—No, I have not. A valuable piece of plate was presented to me in Ireland ; but that also I have been obliged to part with. Mr. Commissioner FANE asked to see the bankrupt's balance-sheet, which was handed to him by Mr. Lloyd (the accountant). Dr. , Cr. To Creditors. £2,838 19 013 y property (in Capital, Jan.lB4o 50 00! dispute) £6O 0 0 Receipts of the I Personal expenses 1,230 0 0 Theatre 2,505 8 6 Expenses of the Profits from teach- 1 Theatre ing, &c. 300 0 0 Losses Liabilities 811 10 6 t Liabilities ...—....f Deficiency 3,811 17 5 565 0 0 811 10 6 27 10 1 £6,505 18 01 £6,505 18 0 Mr. Commissioner PANE—Have you, Mr. Balfe, any other description of property than that described in your schedule ?—I have, Sir ; I have an interest in three manuscript operas, called respectively " The Bohemian Girl," " The Magic Mirror," and " Adelvina," which are not yet quite complete, and are mortgaged to the Alfred Insurance Company and Mrs. Chappel, for 6001. The bankrupt having been sworn to the truth of his ballance sheet, and answered the.usual interrogatories, was declared to have passed his final examination. On one of the nights of Mr. Balfe's disastrous cam paign, the receipts at the Theatre were as low as 161. 4s. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. LAMBETH-STREET. Yesterday Samuel Dodd, a young man of shabby-gen teel appearance, who had described himself when last be fore the Magistrate as a " professional singer," appeared to his bail before Mr. Norton, to answer a charge of stealing a valuable shawl and other articles, the property of Mrs. Elizabeth Heard. From the statement of the prosecutrix, a dashingly dressed young woman, it appeared that during her wi dowhood and previous to her present marriage she was intimately acquainted w ith th e pr i soner, and he was a constant visitor at her house; but since her present union, that intimacy of course ceased, and she lost sight of him for some time. About three weeks ago, however, she saw him go past her ho use , an d, h er h us b an d b e i ng at sea, she invited him to t a k e t ea w i t h her. After this he called three or four times, and at length she missal a valuable shawl and other articles out of the parlour in which he used to sit. She in consequence went to a con cert-room where he was in the habit of singing, and ac cused him of t a ki ng away h er s h aw l , and though lie de nied all knowledge of the property and declared his in nocence, he offered her two pounds to make it up. This, however, she refused, and gave him into custody. On the last examination the prisoner solemnly de clared he was innocent of the offence, and said he had offered to give a sum of money rather than be charged before a Magistrate and have his name published in tho newspapers in connection with such a transaction. Mr. NORTON asked the constable it in searching the lodgings of the prisoner, he had found any duplicates relating to the missing property, and he answered in the negative. The prosecutrix also, in reply to a ques tion of the Magistrate, said sho had no further evidence than that given on the former examination. Mr. NORTON said that the evidence was not conclu sive of the prisoner's guilt, and would not justify his further detention, and lie was therefore discharged. WORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday Hanley and Tilt, the ushers of this Police Court, were directed by Mr. Broughton to accompany Hughes and Taylor, two excise-officers, to the dustyard of Mr. Bateman, in Holy - well-lane, Shoreditch, for the purpose of being present at the destruction by fire of about three hundred weight of imitative tea, which had beed manufactured from the leaves of the ash, sloe, and other hedge-trees, into black and green teas, the black tea having been formed into the latter by an admixture of Dutch pink and Prussian blue. About the month of Feb ruary last the Excise officers seized the whole of the de leterious ingredients, which had been manufactured on some premises belonging to James Delahoyde, in Slater street, Old Nicholls-street, and Little Dust-yard,when Mr. Mayhew, Solicitor to the Excise, who was assisted by Mr. Golding Bird, attended at Worship -street Police Court, in order that the same should be condemned, when, after a long investigation, Mr. Broughton, the then presiding Magistrate, decided that the whole should be destroyed. It was necessary, however, that the order should be countersigned by the Commissioners of Ex cise, but that was not done till a few days ago. For the purpose of a more rapid consumption of the materials the officers were provided with a barrel of tar, which was mixed with the tea, and then ignited. The opera tions commenced at nine o'clock, and the whole was not destroyed till two in the afternoon. THAMES -OFFICE. Friday Henry ' James, John James Rivett, Thomas King, William Lyon, James Morris, and George James, appeared before Mr. Broderip to answer a charge of assaulting Henry Hipkins on the river, and capsizing a boat in which he was in, by which he was immersed in the water, and his life placed in danger. Mr. Flower, the solicitor, of Hatton-garden, was f or the prosecution, and M r . Pelham for the defendants. Mr. Pelham applied for an adjournment of the case, on the ground that his clients had only received notice of the charge on Thursday evening, and a number of re spectable witnesses whom they intended to call were engaged in the Corn-market, and could not attend until Tuesday next. Mr. BRODERIP said the case was one of a very peculiar nature, and it was impossible for him to decide upon it summarily. If ho was going to do so, he would at once consent to a postponement ; but as he intended to send it before a Jury, the defendants would not be injured by his hearing the evidence for the prosecution then. Mr. Flower stated the case, and said all the'parties were Horslydown watermen, and the affray occurred on the sth of August, during the l as t h ea t o f th e H ors l y d own regatta, when the defendants, who had conspired to pre vent Hipkins winning the prize wherry, for which he was a competitor, basely ran him down, and inflicted a seri ous injury upon him. He then called Henry Hipkins, a young watermitn, who said he plied at Horslydown Old-stairs, and that three of the defen dants plied at George's-stairs, Horslydown. On the sth of August he was a competitor in the Horslydown re gatta, and became entitled to row in the last, or grand heat, with another Waterman named Radford. All the defendants, and another man not in custody, whose name was mentioned in the warrant, were in a four oared cutter, and were partisans of Radford's. Just before he and Radford started he heard that the de fendants would get in his way and prevent him win ning, and he heard Henry James, who was standing up in the cutter, and who was the leader of the party, swear profane oaths, and declare by his Maker that witness should not have the boat if he won it. He and Radford started, and they were scull and scull for some time, when Radford fouled him, and got three boats' lengths a-head. He caught his adversary again at Horslydown New Stairs, touched his boat on the out side quarter, and turned her right round, which enabled him to pass Radford and go a-head. He was rowing steadily away from Radford, with every chance of be coming the winner, when Henry James, who continued standing up in the boat, called out " Give way," and the defendants rowed upon him as hard as they were able, and Henry James on reaching him caught hold of the nose of his boat just abaft the rowlock, and turned the boat right over, with him in it.. At that time his feet were in the stretcher straps. He was under the boat, struggling in the water, and James dragged him out again over the wager boat. He suffered greatly, and was confined to his bed for seven days afterwards. The witness underwent a long cross-examination by Mr. Pelham, which chiefly related to his contest with Radford. The Magistrate interrupted, and was of opi nion that had nothing to do with the case. Mr. Pel ham, however, said, that his answer to the charge was, that Hipkins turned himself over, and the defendants picked him up ; and pursued the examination for some time, but did not shake the evidence of Hipkins, who swore, in answer to questions, that he did not row over Radford's boat six feet, but only touched him, and that he did not get up in his own boat, but remained sitting, and the boat was turned over completely bottom up wards. Mr. Pelham said this was quite impossible. Mr. BRODERIP—I am quite convinced it is possible with these light wager boats. Henry Loader, a waterman, gave similar evidence, and added that he heard George James say that Hip kins should have a swim for it before the heat commenced. The prize wherry had not been given up to any one. Mr. Flower said he had numerous witnesses in attend ance, but as they would only repeat the same facts he would not trespass further on the Magistrate's valuable time Mr. BRODERIP said it was disgraceful to treat such a transaction as this with levity, as some persons interested in the case were doing, for either the two witnesses were perjured, or a most unfair, unmanly, and cowardly assault had been com mitted on Hipkins; whichever it was, there was no thing to laugh at. He was a friend to the manly and na tional sports of the people, and he would be the last man to do anything to bring into disrepute aquatic sports, when fairly conducted; but if such transactions as these were to be suffered, they would be put clown instead of being encouraged. He was told there was a com plete answer to this case ; and lie did hope, for the honour of human nature, there was, for .no thing could be more atrocious than to run down a man to prevent him winning a prize wherry. A prima fade case of assault was made out against all the defendants, and he should send them to be tried by a jury at the Surrey Sessions. He ordered that Henry James find bail, himself in 501. and two sureties of 251. each, and the other five prisoners, themselves in 40/., and two sureties of 20/. each, to appear at the next Ses sions, there to abide their trial, and bound over the wit nesses to prosecute. A number of respectable individuals, including Wm. Wright Landell, Esq., the opulent corn-factor, tendered themselves as.bail for the watermen, and were at once accepted. The investigation excited the greatest interest among the river people, the rowing clubs, and the lovers of aquatic sports, who crowded the office. THE CASE OF M'LEOD. TO THE EDITOR OF THE. SUN. Glasgow, Aug. 11, 1841. SIR,—How we Britons ought to feel ashamed of the cold neglect of our Whig Government in not demanding the immediate release of poor M'Leod, whose only crime has been the defending of his country, which, had he re fused, must have caused him to be punished perhaps with death itself. I feel the more urgent in thus addressing you on the subject, as the press alone is perhaps the only means now left of saving poor M'Leod. I have no doubt that the blustering of the Americans, who wish his life out of sheer revenge, is not meant in earnest; but know ing intimately a gentleman, who now resides in Glas gow, who was one of those actually engaged in the affair of the Caroline, I cannot forget the emphatic reply, when asked what his opinion was on this subject. He says, if 11 , PLeod escape the American law, he will never escape the American snob. And can it otherwise be expected—when the cool indifference has been displayed by the British Government, which must be a stein, I am afraid, upon the British people for allowing the Go vernment to sleep on such an important matter—than that much bloodshed will arise out of this ? Whether 3PLeod be murdered by the law or without the law—for every rational reflecting mind must see that, from the previous conduct of the Lockport mob in returning him into gaol, little is to be expected from such a rabble, that set all law at defiance. That the British Press cau and ought to show the powr.T they possess in warning the Ame ricans, and telling them of the danger of such proceed ings, should such an event take place, it need scarcely require any argument from me. But, in the turmoil of parties, poor M'Leod, a countryman, and a volunteer in the defence of his country and his countrymen, should be suffered by the British Government to remain for twelve months in a gaol, must be a stain on the reign of our noble Queen, which every Liberal must deeply • regret for more reasons than one. .:(y f r i en d says i t will put a stop to volunteering after • this on behalf of a Government who can treat them thus. I am, Sir, your's, &c., A WHIG. The Count de Lalaing, who has resigned the post of Belgian Charge d'Affaires at Madrid, returned to Brus sels a few days ago. . FO URPENN Y BOATS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sift—l trust that you will make known to the public the following gross outrage. It is one which I learn is constantly being practised. Yesterday morning, at about a quarter past eight, I had occasion to proceed towards the West-end, and crossing London Bridge from the Surrey side, I perceived that a steam-boat was about starting. I paid my fare, and the boat did start, but in stead of proceeding to its destination, the captain giving the word " Go on," she was steered to the other side of the bridge, safely moored, when all the men, captain in cluded, went below to their breakfast. I was told the vessel would start in half an hour ; being pressed for time I demanded back my money, but was refused, and told to wait. Now, Sir, Ido think that this is conduct that should not be tolerated in a public company. I therefore trust that you will, through the medium of your paper, expose such improper conduct. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, S. A., Jr. Southampton -strut, Euston-square. Aug. 20, 1841. MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

SUGAR.-Importers of British Plantation have been less disposed to realise this week, yet on the whole the market has presented a tranquil appearance, and the grocers have been the principal operators ; bright yellow sorts have been, however, in fair demand, and have brought full rates, the supply being still small ; but common brown and grey kinds have been taken sparingly, and in most cases the prices accepted have been 6d per cwt under those of this day week. There has. been no public sale.
