Lord JOHN RUSSELL moved the third reading of the Ecclesiastical Benefices Bill. After a short conversation, in which Sir Edward Sugden, Dr. Nicholl, and Lord John Russell took part, the Bill was read a third time and passed. ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE BILL. Lord J. RUSSELL moved the Order of the Day for going into Committee upon the Administration of Justice Bill. Sir E. SUGDEN very much objected to the Bill. A Bill was passed last Session which gave powers to the Lord Chancellor which ought not to be given to any individual Judge ; still though he had the power of Legislation, his orders were not to have the force of law until they had lain on the table of the House for thirty days. The Bill before the. House took away •that safeguard ; the orders made by the Lord Chancellor were to become law as soon as that high officer pleased, and that House was to have the power of objecting to them, and then they would cease to have the force of law. He objected much to the Bill, but inasmuch as it had passed the other House, although, and he spoke with authority, it had not received due consideration, and as it was supported by the Government he would not then divide the House against it. The •ATTORNEY-GENERAL said his Right Honourable Friend (Sir E. Sugden) asked, why had not the Bill of last Session been acted on ? He (the Attorney-General) believed it was because the Lord Chancellor was afraid to act upon it till this amendment was introduced, for if this Bill was not intro duced, and the former Bill was acted on, he could not, in ease of any complicated regulation that might be introduced, however inconvenient it might be tbund, prevent its remaining in force, until an order for its alteration had been twenty-six sitting days on the table of both Houses of Parliament.—(Hear.) It was, therefore, thought much better that there should be an opportunity of alteration and revision, but always subject to the control of Parliament, because the Right Hon. Gentleman was aware that if Parliament during the twenty-six days should address the Crown against them, the regulations would be of no effect. Mr. GOULBURN was at a loss to understand the Honourable Gentleman opposite. According to the present law the Lord Chancellor was at liberty to . make certain orders relative to the rules of practice, but before those orders were carried into effect, they were to be laid for 36 days on the table of the House. According to the proposed law, the Lord Chancellor would make them and give effect to them iinmediately, Parliament having the power of rescinding them within thirty-six days. It struck him that nothing could be more inconvenient than the proposed alteration It might be very right to consider all the recommendations of the Court before they were carried into effect ; but to rescind them after wards would be productive of the greatest inconvenience. The Bill was then read a second time. On the motion of Col. SALWEY, the Select Com mittee on national monuments obtained leave to report to the House. The Gallant Colonel then brought up the IZeport. Mr. WARLEY seeing the Noble Lord the Mem ber f o r South Staffordshire in his place, wished to put a question to him with reference to the notice he had given for that day. In the month of August last year, a notice had appeared in the Times newspaper, statine• b that a discovery had been male by a Mr. War ner, of enormous power, and which, in the opinion of certain gentlemen, was calculated to affect, in a great degree, all . future warfare on the face of th e civilized globe. If the report was correct, it was of such a nature as to challenge all human credence. It was stated in the report that his late Majesty had witnessed that operation, an d severe others, among whom was the Noble Lord Opposite, and what he (Mr. Wakley) wished to know from hi m was, whether the account given in the Ti mes newspaper,_ and which had been repeated by Mr. Walesby, the bar rister, was true, and therefore entitled_to public credence. Lord INGESTRE in answer to the, question of the Hon. Member for Finsbury would state shortl to the House that the experiment alluded to by the Hon. Member had succeeded. He regretted, however, very much that the subject had been brought before the public, either in the shape of a pamphlet or a newspaper report. He (Lord Ingestre) had no hesitation in stating his own opinion on the subject particularly as that opinion was d ' concurred in by Admiral Sir R. king and Sir T. Hat y. The opinions of those distinguished officers on the sub ject w ere recor d e d on pa p er , a nd he (Lord Ingestre) felt no hesitation after them in stating that the invention was one of great importance to this country. 'General Sir G. Murray, at his (Lord Ingestre's) solicitation, went to witness the experiment alluded to, and was struck, as e very one must be, at the immense power in cluded in so small compass. That officer had since told him that he had been with the First Lord of the Treasury on the ought to be inquired into. There was another circumstance relating to this affair w ort h y o f remar k . ,Had the inventor availed himself of the offers made to him from foreign countries, he must at once have relieved • himself from all his embarrassments ; but he stated that he had rather sacrifice his best in terests than that such an invention should be lost to his native country.—(Hear, hear.) It was, he (Lord Ingestre) thought, a cruelty to the individual, and it was his (Lord Ingestre's intention to :have submitted a distinct motion to the House on the matter. . Sir FRANCIS BURDETT although not a pro fessional man, still having been a w:tness to the experiments, he would say that he had never seen anything more astonishing, nor had he ever con .. ceived that anything so sm a ll a nd trifling, in comparison to its effects, could ever have been invented. • Mr. BROTHERTON was quite willing to give eneon • ragement to all persons who invented engines for increasing the industry or augmenting the happiness of the people, , but he must protest against any encouragement being held out to the invention of engines which he considered to be injurious to the peace and we lf are of society. l t. might be said that the invention • bat itaneVzizitioaetnaets War would put an end to war, • and ough t to be diticoorago las b a remnant of barb ar i sm , a • possibl civilized Stat e i n a ll eways. y Sir, INGLIS skid he did not know whether the house was a w tothea question before it related to the Lords' am ar en e dmthenaTHighway The motion was then °sq.% The House theu A d journe e tat to S . i x o'clock, SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM TILE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY CHRONICLE.—We point with pride and exultation to the proceedings at the London Tavern, of which an ample report will be found in our columns of this day. Who that witnessed these proceedings can for,one moment hesitate to be lieve that monopoly has t eceived its death blow ? joyous enthusiasm with which the entry of Lord John Russell into the City was hailed by all ranks and classes of its inhabitants, the ardour with which they thronged to the meeting to take part in the business of the day, afforded a noble justification of the confidence reposed in the peop:e by Minister e. The hearts of the monopolists must have sunk within them at the unequivo cal magi estation of opinion which the proceedings of yesterday exhibited. But will the triumph of yesterday be confined to London? No. The blow struck at monopoly in the heart of the empire will be felt in theremotest corners of it. It is im possible to over-estimate the importance of the proceedings of yesterday. The discussion expected in the House of Commons last night from Mr. Scholefield's motion, that the " extreme stiff, ring of the industrious classes from want of employment, low wages, and high price of provision!, renders it the imps ra . ive duty of Parliament to devise means for the alleviation of the great misery which now pervades all the manufacturing districts of the country ;" and the amendment of Mr. llindley, And that it is the opinion of this House that the present system of taxation and the Corn-laws, are peculiarly unjust to the middle and lower classes of the coxmunity," was cut short by the counting out of the House at eight o'cli.ck. It 'may not be amiss that the country should know something of the motives which led to this step. Our readers must not sup pose, from there having been only twenty-four Mem bers present when the House was counted out, that there was any [want of Members in town. The fact is, that the Tories deliberstely left the House in a body after hearing the speeches of Sir Francis Burdett and Mr. Labouchere, and feeling the imbecility of the one and the force of the other. Both Sir Robert Peel and Sir James Graham listened to the speeches of Mr. Scliolefield and Mr. Medley, and also to the speech of Sir Francis Burdett ; but when they found that he invited discussion, having asked Members opposite to state their views on the subject, and that he gave up the whole agri • cultural case by denying that the landowners wanted protec tion, or that they had any, they immediately left the House ; and Sir Robert Peel, at the head of a whole row of county Members, gave the sign for counting out, which Sir Strattord Canning obeyed. A more shameless admis sion that the Opposition dared not discuss the matter it is impossible to conceive. It seemed as if they wished to give additional confirmation to the truth of what was advanced by Lord John Russell at the City yesterday forenoon, namely, that the Opposition shrunk from all discussion on the subject. No rational person can now doubt that the object of the want of confidence motion was to prevent all discussion on the Corn laws. They ale afraid, in fact, to meet their opponents, con scious of the badness of their cause. A mire skulking course thai that pursued by the Tories was never exhibited to an in• dignant nation. What. a perry to have the assurance to lay claim to the Government of this country, without having the manliness to meet their political opponents on the very ques tion at issue between them! Matters are come to a strange - pass, indeed, if conduct like this finds favour in the eyes of the people of England. POST.-51'e stated yesterday that the ?natter upon which Lord John Russell appears to rely in his written Address to the electors of London, is nothing worth. As this question in volves the higher question of the policy of the Government, upon which an appeal is to be made to the country at large, the discussion of it is worth more attention than if it related merely to the beaten Minister's pretensions to the representa tion of London. The Ministerial Journals assert, with their accustomed effrontery, that the effect of the Government po licy would be to replenish the Exchequer, while it would greatly relieve the people, and promote profitable industry to an astonishing degree. Lord John Russell, with rather more modesty, contents himself with saying that her Majesty's Mi nisters wished to lighten that kind uf taxation which, while it Oasts nothing to the Exchequer, presses heavily upon the people. Now this is a very reasonable wish ; but the thing which her Majesty's Ministers hare done bears no obvious relation to any such wish, or plan, or policy. In the first place it is to be proved that there is any such " kind of taxation" as that to which the Noble Lord refers. We know that plenty of violent, and by no means very profound, persons, will be ready to exclaim, that all " protecting duties" constitute that " kind of taxation." But exclamation and as sertion are very different things from argument. If Lord John Russell can prove that protecting duties constitute a bus den -upon the people like taxation, he will prove a very important thing ; but he has no right to take it fur granted without prow • ing it. 'fhis is the point of which we complain. if this " kind of taxation," as he calls it, be no taxation at all, then his address, however plausible in words, is mere nonsense, be cause it rests upon an ignorant delusion. Now there a-e men in England quite as wino and as well-informed as Lord J. Russell, and rather more unbiassed by strong self-interest upon this question, who hold that the imposts to which the beaten Minister alludes are not in themselves taxes, but, on the con trary, enable the country to bear taxes which otherwise it could nut bear. HERALD.—We must take leave to express in limine, our strongest protest against the step which Lord John Russell has adopted in offering himself to represent the City of London. His Lordship is still a Minister of the Crown ; occupying, probably, among all its Ministers, the second rank in the per sonal confidence of the Sovereign, and in virtue of his leading their party in the House of Commons, filling, perhaps, the firststation in that Administration in point of political import ance, and of public consideration. In this three-fold capacity - of a principal Minister of the Crown,—of a confidential servant and adviser of the Crown s and of the organ of communication, as it were, between the Crown and the people in virtue of his position in the House of Commons,—can Lord John Russell hope to discharge the duties of a representative of the City of London? Can he at once discharge hls Ministerial duties to the Crown, and his representative duties to his consti tuency ? Can he, even with all the advantages of the " ab solute wisdom" attaching to the " council of three " with which he hopes to be associated, by the coincident return of Mr. Crawford, Sir M. Wood, and Mr. Pattison with him can he equally acquit himself of his duties as a Se cretary for the Colonies and a Member fir the great empo rium of their produce—as a Minister sworn to uphold, main Lain, and vindicate the privileges of the Monarch, and as the delegate of a constituency at all times to the last degree jea lous of and opposed to every distinct assertion of them ? Is there nothing indelicate in the leader of the Government in the Commons, and in that position almost as much as a Chan cellor of the Exchequer controlling the issues of the public purse, being Member for London, which is, of necessity, con stantly appealing to the Legislature for advances from the national funds to enable her to carry out public works and improvements of a character more or less doubt ful or disinterested, according to circumstances, —now anticipating its coal duty for the completion of a magnificent street, or mortgaging its " orphan dues" to aid the erection of a stupendous bridge ; but not omitting, occasionally, to make sales of corporation lands or rents under circumstances not absolutely free from the suspicion of jobbing, and to par ties not always capable of showing what " reasonable'conSi deration" they have paid for their bargains? Is it very con stitutional for one of her Majesty's Secretaries of State, sup posing him to be elected for the City, to represent indirectly but often—and especially by his votes on local and private Bills—very palpably and partially, the district interests (—and if not absolutely to " represent," we may say "to in fluence"—) of the ancient borough of Sauihwark, and the modern, or Itussellise I, or metropolitan " Horoughnets" of Finsbury and Lambeth ; of Marylebone and the 'lower Hamlets ? ADVERTISER.—London gave yesterday a most glorious note of preparation at the truly great meeting held for the pur pose of securing the election of Lord John Russell, aid the other Liberal candidates for its representation. The demon stration was in every respect worthy of the occasion. Never did the wealth, rank, influence, and talent of the metropolis exhibit themselves in more imposing and effective combination ; and supported as this combination was by the numbers who thronged every approach to the London Tavern, the place of meeting, and, urged only by the enthusiasm whieh pervaded al parties—from the wealthiest merchant on the platform to the poorest operative, who watched the proceedings will au anxiety commensurate with his stake in the result, there can be no doubt that London will do its duty, and secure the triumph of those principles of unrestricted com merce, without which the fall of Britain's prosperity and great ness will be as certain and as rapid as has been their rise. Fire thousand signatures having been attached to the requisition soliciting Lord John Russell to become a candidate for the representation of the greatest commercial city in the world, the meeting of yesterday was natural'y expected to exhibit features of more than ordinary interes , . But the result alto gether surpassed anticipation, and may, so far, be regarded as a death-blow to the hopes of the monopolists. GLOBE.—Lord John Russell's reception yesterday by the citizens of London was everything which the most devoted friends to the cause with which his Lord ship is identified could desire. It was not merely ani mating—it was enthusiastic ; and has struck terror into the City Tories, who were unprepared for a demonstra tion so unequivocally expressive of the deep .interest felt by the great body of the citizens in the success of the measures which the Noble Lord, as the organ of her Majesty's Government, submitted to the House of Com mons. The following description of the scene will con vey but an imperfect idea of the reality—to comprehend fully its animating character it is necessary to have wit nessed the enthusiasm it faintly describes : " The meeting was called for t.vo o'clock, and at one the footpath at each side of the street leading to the tavern was crowded to excess. On Lord J. Russell making his appear ance at a little before two, he was welcomed with a- warmth e t 1 7 s e a n n s t l x c r: re hdinge chteheart which i i ng eh commenced usually in ti g a tes beforee ec theti election e ering Nobleeeri n . g Lordpar could make hi s way to the - abated ard our b y t h e dense multi tavern t , u a d n e w t hi w i, a h s fi t l a l k e, e i n th u e p r w oo l m th aunnd the stai h r e c n as t e h w e ithin e , Noble When Lorrlmade his 4. _ appear..nce on the plat form at the head o f hi s deputation, e excitement of the meet ing was; raised to the highest pitch, ib Tle and he was cheered again and again for sever a l m i nutes .

They have realised the expecta tions of the country. This powerful demonstration of their determined purpose to give effect to their approval of the proposed measures, .by securing the election, as one of their representatives in Parliament, of the Minister of the Crown by whom those measures were introduced ; and by associating with him, as col leagues in the representation, the good men and true, who are well known by their past faithful services to be worthy of the confidence they seek, the citizens of London have not only maintained their own character for intelligence and consistency, but they have given an impetus to the movement of the provinces in support of the same goad cau3o which cannoasfail to be productive of incalculable benefit. The healthful and exhilarating pulsations which beat in the heart of the empire will impart a corresponding energy throughout the smaller constituencies. ! COURIER.—The grand apotheosis of the newly in augurated little Moloch deity of new Poor-law horrors, and Anti-Corn-law starvation wages policy, announced beforehand with such a flourish of Whig-Radical trumpets, was consummated yesterday in due form at the London Tavern, - when the lordly elf fittingly commemorated the momentous occasion by a cool enumeration of all his manifold claims to the honour conferred. We have in our time been con demned to wade through too many exhibitions of the 1 wordy worthlessness and intellectual imbecility of Lord John Russell, but we are bound conscientiously to de clare that nothing more miserable, even from him, ever fell from the lips [of one filling, but not fulfilling, the station of a statesman, and professing to comprehend, but incompetent to perform, the duties of a wise le gislator. STANDARD.—The misconduct of too many of the French Journals in columniating, by the publication of forged letters, incomparably the wisest and the best Mo narch that ever occupied the throne of France, has given rise to some serious discussions in the political circles of Paris, and in the Paris press. For our own part, we can imagine no rigour of persecution, no severity of punishment, that can go beyond what is due to the villainy of which the slanderers of Louis Philippe have been guilty. The question is not one affecting the liberty of the press, otherwise than as the prosecution and punishment of forgeries committed through the press must defend that liberty in the most effectual manner. The liberty of the press is no more interested in protecting forgery, than the right of property is interested in protecting forgery, As regards the public, it never can 1w of public benefit to promulgate falsehood, and to promulgate it in a man ner so daring as to ensure credit ; and in the case of the criminal, all mitigating circumstances are wanting ; he cannot commit forgery by inadvertence, he cannot be hur ried into the commission of forgery by the heat of argu ment, or by any provocation, how violent Soever. For gery is, in every case, a wilful and deliberate act—and if a malignant one also, no punishment, we repeat it, can be too severe for such a crime in any coun try. The circumstances of France too must render tenderness towards offenders of this class not only impolitic -but criminal. It is scarcely a reproach to the country that. its long disorders and exten sive wars have generated in its bosom a class of per sons so discontented and desperate as to be capa ble of the most atrocious acts—witness seven or eight at tempts upon the life of the present King. But the forged calumnies which are now the subject of consideration in France are, in fact, so 'many exhortations to direct the knife or the pistol against the Monarch's breast. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, JUNE 17. 1,41 FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. CHRONICLE.—To illustrate the truth of our doc' rine that the country is not at present in a situation of suffic:ent financial strength to enable it to grapple with another drain of gal, similar to that which followed the bad harvest of 183 S, we refer to the state of the currency and bullion in the Bank, is May, 1839, when the first operations were made by the Bank to stop the export of bulLoa, and at 23th of May, 1841, whea the last Gazette averages were published : May 2,1839. May 25, 1841. Difference. Notedin Circulation I 8,214,000 16,615,000 1,599,000 Deposits Total Liabilities ...... 26,028.000 23,637,000 2,171,000 Securities .............:23,518,000 21,817,000 1,726,000 Bullion ... 5,119.000 4,9 ?1,000 198,000 Total Assets 28,662,000 26,738,000 1,921,000 Now, takin;.7, the gross results of these comparisons : There is a decrease in the liabilities 0f.... £2,171,000 But also a decrease in the Meets of 1,924,000 Making the actual difference only While the bullion has diminished 193,000/., the circulation is less by 1,599,0001.; but the decrease in the securities exceeds the contraction in the circulation by 127,0001. The Bank is, therefore, in no respect stronger than in May, 1839, for where there is a difference in her favour of some of the relative items, it is counteracted by others; and the decrease in the assets and securities shows that the institution has not the same resource s at command to operate on the value of money, or to fight against an unfavourable state of the foreign exchanges. The race of interest at both periods was the same, but in June, 1839, the rate was raised to 54- per cent , and on the Ist of August of that year, to 6 per cent. From December, 1818, to May, 1839, the kellion had diminished from 9,362,000/. to 5,119,0001., a drain of 4,243,000/., so that we find the Bank coffers do not contain much over half the amount that they held months after the deficiency of the crop of 1838 was known, and that the institution stands only in about the same ratio to real soundness as it did in May, 18:39, when the alarm ingly low state of its bullion compelled the Directors to adopt extraordinary and stringent measures of safety. The principal favourable point of difference we can discern at present is in the immediate absence of any drain of gold to pay for the people's food. But how long that may last is pro blematical. The exchanges, to be sure, have improved : hut the change for the better cannot be attributed to anything like a really healthy or invigorated action in our export trade. some improvement there may have been of late, hut there are also 1,599,000/. less of Bank notes now in circulation than in Slay, 1839, and we have reason to think that Exchange operations have been gong on by means of bills drawn on the Continent against heavy shipments of silver. The following are the official returns of the exports of the precious metals, from the port of London, for the week ending the 10th inst. : Ounces. Silver Coin to Rotteiclam 83,000 to Hamleargh 21,50 01 to Hong Kong Silver Bars to Rotterdam We therefore take leave to say that the derangement of the Money Market, and the consequent embarrassment and want of money experienced since the year 1838, and continued with littleirelaxation up to the present time, was produced by the ex traction of gold from the Bank to pay for food for the people , and that if a. similar drain were now to ensue, the Bank has not the means to sustain itself against the pressure. Its own re sources are crippled most severely, and the aid which the Directors received from the Bank of France in 1839 can not be looked fur in future. Besides all which, the trade of the country is falling off. Bankruptcies of the most alarming character have taken place of late in Wigan, Manchester, and Glasgow ; a large additional number of hands will be thrown out of t mployment in consequence. More mills will be closed, and many additional families made destitute and helpless. It has been proved, too, by the failure of the additional per oentage placed on the assessed taxes, Customs, and Excise, that the means of consumption and comforts of the people are exhausted, while the revenue is 2,800,000/. below the national expenditure. We are surely warranted, there• fore, in urging the Proprietors of the Batik of England to use active measures of assistance to carry out the pllns of financial reform and relief proposed in the budget. We can see no other praCtical source by which trade may be revived, and the Bank relieved from the certainty of being obliged to shut shop at the first unfavourable harvest. TIME -i.—The premium on gold at Paris is 9 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 2a. 37, and the ex change at Paris on London at short being 25. 37i, it follows that gold is 0.02 per cent. dearer in London than in Pas. r_ By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 430 per mark, which, at the English Mint 'mice of 3/. 17s. 10%d. per ounce for standard gold, g ves an exchange of 13. 7, and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13. 8, it follows that gold is 0.23 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London is 108 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-10 per cent., it follows that the ex-, change is 1.58 per cent. against England. But the quoted exchange at New York being tor bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above difference. It appears by the tile of New York papers that the banks of Pennsylvania have been in a most undecided state as to whether they should accept the provisions of the " Relief Bill." The only invitutions that have issued the small notes autherized by ,he Act are said to be the Has risbuig Bank and the Exchange Bank of Gettysburg. The Mechanics', the ,Farmers' and Mechani s', and the " United States" banks would, it was expected, accept the provisions. The Bank of Pennsylvania had resolved to accede, while the Philadelphia, the Cosnmereial, the North American, the Southwark, and the Western, had decidedly rejected it. In New York the ex pectation of the results of the " RePef Bill" is that it will cause such an increase of circulation in Pennsylvania as to bring ahout an irretrievable depredation of the curt ency. The creation of State stock, which is the basis of the Bill, hae given rise to a diseussien of the well-known question, vile then such issues are bills of credit, and as such cent' wry to the pro visions of the Constitution. The mass of Southern banks scents to he considers 1 insolvent, their funds being in the hands of persons who have used them in speculation. In Maryland there has been much sensation on account of a rob bery of a bank in Frederick County to the extent of nearly 186,000 dollars, all made away with by "false entries." The opinions in the State of New York respeet'ng a na tio:.a' bank are divided. In the State. House of Representa tives the majority is opposed to it; in the Chamber of Com merce a vote has been taken, when 24 appeared against, and 35 in favour of it, while the mass of the people are said to regard the notion of such an institution with dislike. The general banking law is regarded as a complete failure, since of 79 banks which stared under it, and issued notes according to the Controller's Report, only 53 appear to remain in good credit, and the business and profit of these is said to be ex ceedingly small. Altogether the people of New York seem to be in a most unsettled state, and to be feverishly antici pating the action of Congrels. Some look forward to the National Bank as a sanatory measure, others to the bankrupt law, a third party to the distribution of public lands, as likely to increase State credit, and thus improve the value of State stocks and the assets of the Banks. From calculations made of late it semis, however, but too probable that all hopes founded on the distribution are likely to be disappointed, even if the measure is carried. • The accounts from Texas furnish statement: of the reve nue of that young repubhc for the last four years, and accord ing to these the import duties were in 1837, $119,211, but in 1838, $235,005 ; in 1840 they had decreased to $151,268. The land dues had progressively increased to `118,331, which was the amount fur 1810. The licenses had increased and brought to the revenue $165,465, and the direct taxes, $326,370. The imports reached the highest point in 1839, being calculated that year to produce $1,662,287. In 1840 there was a cOnsiderahle falling off, the imports in that year not being valued at more than $983,883. The value of exports from the 30th of September, 1837, 1839, was $575,753 ; an d f t r o om the Ist 3ot the h° of f December, ariry, to the 30th of September, 1840, $2lB, 134. To these accounts may be appended others which state that the disposition of the new loin was a matter of great debate. It appears that Congress, at its last sessisn, resolved, that should it meet with success none of it should be touched except $15,060 for foreign missions, and $l,OOO for each of the. Judges. This was to abolish the custom that had been established of appropriating the funds in the Trea surya gn w s t i t t h h o e u a t p p special t i a o u n t h o o f rai any of S t h t r e o i f t o g m e l i s p p t o o s i t i t o h n e is paymentmade of the bonds and Treasury notes, on the ground that these great new s n u o i f n b t e h r e of. whom a the r a e r a e ch m e i o t s , t r l y e xa s held simultaneously t o w r t , h and spread themselves over the country buying them up. POST.—There was but a poor attendance of dealers, and very little doing at the Stock Exchange, notwithstanding that it was settling day in the Foreign Market. A contract ha., we understand, been concluded with Mr. Green, the shipowner, for tonnage for the conveyance of 1 ; 000 troops whic'i Government are about to send direct to China.

STATE OF TRADE. (From the Mane.iwster Guardian.) 111.iscHEsma.—There has been a fair amount of business done during the last week, both in goods and yarn; the enact of which has been to render prices somewhat more steady than before, but without causing any advance. The improvement would pro bably have been more marked, had it not been checked by an extensive failure in the spinning business, which took place at the latter end of last week ; and has caused a good deal of regret and apprehension. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MAR XET MONDAY, JUNE 14. — There has been another du!l and listless market, with very little business transacted, and that little at ruinous prices to the manufacturer. The wool market has been upon a par with the piece market. HtMLERSFIELD - MARKET, JUNE. 15. This mar ket was rather more animated than those for seve ral weeks past. Buyers were more numerous, who purchased rather extensively, but • prices have not improved. In wools there was a little more, demand, and prices rather firmer. . The warehouses exhibit a slight improvement ; and some large American hoases very brisk. Still, trade may be considered as being at a ruinous ebb. TOTAL DESTRUCTION B 4 FIRE OF THE NEW YORK NATIONAL THEATRE. (From the New YoTic Morning Herald.) Saturday , morning; at seven o'clock precisely, a se cond and, we lament to say, a successful attempt was made to destroy the National Theatre, in Church street. In the Herald of Saturday, we gave an ac count of the discovery, by the manager, of fire in different places, on Friday, which were subdued, and the performances went on without any further alarm. At the close of the performance, Mr. Burton, with Mr. WeinySs and Russell, remained on the pre mises until about half-past three, and had a thorough search through every part, and it appeared perfectly safe. Mr. Russell then retired to his room in the theatre, and went to bed. He shortly rose after six o'clock, and went to the stage door in the rear of the building, and stood in conversation with the private watchman of the establishment. Whilst thus occupied, something was seen to fall from one of the upper rooms ; and in a wry few moments flames were seen to proceed from several differant parts of the building. The alarm was instantly given ; but so rapid was the progress of the destruction, • :kit it was with diffieulty Mr. Russell rescued his wife, who was in bed. Not a vestige of the wardrobe was saved. Some of the banners and stage properties were got out by the property man, and the boxes, books, and paper in the counting-house were got off. The walls of the building were so scandalously weak that the lives of the firemen were considered in danger from the first breaking out of the fire. Mr. John 'l'. Rollins, one of the most intelligent . en gineers of the fire department, states that he lives close. by the theatre, and was on the spot in a very few minutes—say, five—that he went inside the thea tre immediately, and saw no fire except on the stage and scenery, which was then blazing ; there was then no fire in front of the proscenium ; and it is his opinion that the fire was placed on the stage or near the scenes, in leas than half an hour from the time he first saw it. He warned all the people living in the rear to clear out, because in less than five minute - 3. after the fire broke out at the rear, he saw the miserably flimsy wall cracking and yielding in every part, unable to bear the weight of the roof, And before the inmates of the house of ill-fame in the rear, kept by Julia Brown, had time to make their escape, the wall gave way, fell on Julia Brown's house, crushed the back part, killed one young, unhappy, beautiful girl, aged sixteen, named Margaret )[eager, who came from near the corner of Callowhill and 12th street, in Philadelphia, last Tuesday, having only been enticed from her parents so recently. Several others were bruised, and escaped by a miracle through the ruins and rubbish. The young girl who was killed presented a sad spectacle. She was lying on the floor of the back attic, the roof of which was all gone, and the whole open to the light of day. Surrounded by bricks and mortar, and pieces of burnt timber, there lay that young and recently innocent girl, with nothing around her small limbs but her night dress, her side crushed in near her heart, her mild blue eyes open in death, and wet from the smile playing around her mouth, it seemed impossible to realise that she was dead—so young, so fair, so guilty and so early called. Around. her stood one or two of her former companions in shame, weeping bitterly, and the groupe was made up of the toil-worn, smoke-covered firemen, who had extricated her mangled remains from the ruins around her. The rear wall and the side wall on Franklin-street both gave way in so short a time after the tire began, that it was by the mercy of Providence alone that num bers were not crushed to death in the, adjoining houses. The mortar all fell from the bricks, and the latter looked as clean almost as when new ; and the whole building was down to the ground in less than one hour. The French Protestant Episcopal Church was in jured in the roof by fire, and in the interior by water. The dwelling-houses next it, Nos. 103, 105, and 107, Franklin-street, were damaged by the fall of the wall of the theatre, and the Dutch Reformed Church in Franklin-street, adjoining No. 107, took fire also in the roof, but was soon extinguished. The African church, on the corner of Leonard and Church -streets, opposite the theatre, caught also in the roof, but the fire was soon checked there, and with little damage. The firemen deserve a greaLdeal of credit for their activity and energy, and the chief engineer, with his aids, by their judicious coniuct, undoubtedly saved the French church and surrounding buildings- .ti r at one time the wind was high, and blowing the flames over the French church and the houses in Franklin -street, and nothing but the most strenuous exertions saved them. SUFFERERS BY THE FIRE.

PERSONS INJURED. The young girl already mentioned, named Margaret Yeager, was killed. Henry Arcularius, assistant foreman of No. 31, was slightly injured. So was Alderman Adams. Another fireman had his head severely cut, by part of the falling wall : so did a labouring man in the street. Ana it is rumoured still, that there is another body buried in the ruins. One young girl jumped out of the two story window of an adjoining house, and broke her thigh ; and a man broke his leg in jumping out of Julia Brown's house. These were all the accidents that me heard of. THE INVESTIGATION BEFORE THE MACISTR This investigation has been kept secret, for what cause we know not. Two men have been arrested ; one is the man named Shiels, whom we mentioned on Satur day. He is still in the tombs. Ile is sulky on the sub ject of the fire, and says that they can't prove it on him. He occupied the same situation under Wallack as a gas lamp lighter, which he did on Friday last ; and the tire that burned down the theatre before, broke out in the gas room, or close to it. The Magistrates were occupied all day on Satur. ! day, taking affidavits in relation to the mysterious burnino• of this edifice. The depositions of Mr. Wil liam B. Burton, Mr. Wilson, the former le. , ,see, Mr. Wemyss, stage manager, Mr. Russell, the treasurer, and of Henry Lewis, Samuel D. Reeves, Jonathan I. Millatt, Gilbert Lambert, and of James Brad ford, were taken, all tending to implicate, by various circumstances, the two men who are in custody, on sus picion of the act of incendiarism. The affidavif of W. L. Smith, who kept the refectory-in the basement, was also taken. The Magistrate decided that there was suffi cient to warrant him in detaining in custody Thomas Hurd, and George Sheirs, until the further investigation could be 'proceeded with. INQUEST ON TIIE GIRL.—Dr. Archer held an inquest on Saturday morning, at No. 55, Leonard -street, on the body of Margaret Yeager, aged 16, a native of Philadel phia, who was killed in consequence of the falling of the rear wall of the National Theatre on Saturday morning. From the testimony adduced, it would appear that the deceased had only left the home of her parents on TueSday, arrived- in this city on Wednesday, and took up her abode as a boarder in the establishment. On the night previous to the fire, she retired alone to a room in the rear of the house. When the alarm was given, every body was got out, without waiting for the ceremony of the 'toilet, bat Margaret was somewhat fastidious, and whilst in the act of trying a silk petticoat, the crash came—and. the poor girl was swept from this breathing world. The Jury returned a verdict of accidental death. Among singular features of the calamity is that of the late lessee's property and effects being all removed before the fire, whilst all the loss falls on the saareholders and Burton, who is a sufferer to the extent of 25,000 d w :l .s la d r i s s . cha l r t g i e s d a . ls o a little singular that Cie 'incendiary attempt should b.!! made on the day following the salary day at th e t h eatre, Thursday, when nearly every claim To all these facts we expect the public authorities will turn their attention. MR. AND MISS HAWES'S CONCERT.— This annual concert has been long announced, and will, no doubt, be one of the most brilliant of the season. It takes place on the memorable 18th of June, at the Queen's Cone rt Hoorn, Hanover -square, when the lovers of English as bell as foreign music will be provided with an ample entertainment. 111 r. Hawes has been long deservedly known in the musical world, and his daughter bids fair to maintain the honour of th e name Both (says a Contemporary) have done mu c h f or the maintenance o f our nati ona l mu s i ca l character, in th e vocal department especially. Both may be said to ht strictly Eng.ish in their- prufes , ional pursuits; for whilst we have th e father as the pr i nc ipal instructor of ou r youthful aspir an t s to vocal fame, so we have the daught er standing singuh sr l y pre-eminent as t h e composer anti singer of some of the m ost b eautiful and e l egl . n t ballads of the day. Surely with su c h c l a i ms it would b e no t as k of difficulty or of hazard to ventu re on the prediction that their concert - room on the 18th of th e present month w ill b e as crowded and as well filled as we k now the programme o f the evening's enter tainments will rea li se our expectat i ons . The Duchess d'Esclignac (nee Talleyrand), accompanied by her two daughters, have arrived at the York Hotel, Albemarle-street, from Paris. VISIT OF PRINCE ALBERT TO THE UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD, The announced intention of his Royal Highness Prinee Al bert. to visit Oxford on Tuesday, combined with the circumstance of that being the day appointed for the annual commemora tion of the founders and benefactors of the various Colle;ies and Halls, ilr‘v together from London, and the counties sur rounding this ancient seat learning, a vast concourse of spec tators of the various interitting proceedings of which Oxtord was the scene. Majesty and Prin7e Albert arrived at Nuaehara, the seat cf his Grace the Archbishop of York, shortly atter two o'clock on Monday, where great prepahations were made for their rectption A large party of students from the Uni versity repaired to Nunettam by water, rowing up the pictu resque windings of their favourite Isis, and joined en thusiastieally in the acclamations by which her Majesty and Prince Albert were received on their arrival. The " de monstratirin" was continued with so hearty a vigour long after her Majesty and the 'loyal suite had entered the Atehbishop's splendid residence that low Majesty an I Prince Albert were induced to present themselves on the balcony, nothing short of which would apparently satisfy their numerous admirers, arid the acclamation was thereupon renewed with increased fervour. A hope was for some time. entertained by the young gentlemen from the University tnat her Majesty wool l accompany the Plin,e in his visit to Oxford. But this hope was presently dispelled, her Majesty having been dissuaded by cogent reasons from accompanying her Royal consort, amongst which it is staicient to particularize this one—that the University autho rities would have beer, compelled, by ancient prescription, to . grant an entire term—a concess'on which would have been at tended with great inconvenience. Precisely at nine o'clock his Grace the Duke of Wellington, ever distinguished' by military precision as to time, drove into the principal street, and s-t down at the Angel Hotel, where he partook of breakfast. Throughout the entire course of his p ogress from the outskirts of the town the app'ause was tu multuous, and in !rent of the hotel an immense crowd soon congregated, by whom, oil his subsequent (ypearance, he was received with similar' demonstration,. His Grace wore his usual looks, and ap, eared exceeoingly well pleased by the proceedings of the day throughout. Shortly after ten o'clock his Royal highness Prince Albert, who breakfasted at Nuneham with her M 5( sty, drove into the town in an open carriage and four, with outriders, es corted by Lord Norre)s' troop of Oxfordshire YeomaLry Cavalry His Roy al Highness was aecomparied by his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, and a second carriage and four contained Lord George Lennox, Sir E. Bowater, and Mr. Anson, of the Prince's suite. At twenty minutes past 10 his Royal Highness entered into the centre of the knot of build ings called " The schools," where he was received by his Grace the Duke of Wellington, in his full robes as Chancellor of the University, and by all the heads of 'Muses, also in their state co .t unae. At half-past ten the folding. doors were thrown open, and the distineui-het procession, headed by his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and his Grace the Chancellor of the Univer sity, entered the theatre. The applause which hailed their appearance no power of language cou'd describe. The entire theatre was filled—the under circle with elegantly dressed ladies, the gallery with a throng of under-graduates, recalling Milton's description of Pandemonium by the density with which they were packed head over head, and not a little. too, perhaps, by the discordant noises to which they gave utter ance without intermission. This centre of the hall was allo cated to the Masters of Arts, non-resident as Well as resident, and this was also comp!etely filled. Within the circle set apart for the collegiate dignitaries and the (Ls tin4uished visitors•his Grace the Chancellor took his seat at the centre. His Royal Highness Prince Albert occupied a chair of state at his Grace's left, and behind his Royal High ness stood Lord G. Lennox, Gentleman in Waiting, anti Mr. G. E. Anson, Private Sect etary to the Prince, both attired in the Windsor uniform. The Prince, who looked a little pale, but otherwise exceedingly well, wore the gown of a Doctor of Civil Law over a black suit, cut in the style of the Windsor uniform ; his Royal Highness also wore the garter on his left knee, and the star anti riband of the Order, which wera also wor.i by his Grace the Chancellor, and the several other Knights of the Order (about half a dozen) who were present. At the Chancellor's left stood the Vice-Chancellor, and some paces beneath, at either side. the senior and junior ProAor. Amongst the distingu , shed persons who had seats on the dais, we observed his Grace the Duke of Marlborough, his Grace the Duke of Sutherland, the Marquis and Marchioness of Londonderry, Ladies Alexan (lrina and Frances Vane, Lord Adolphus Vane, Earl Jersey, Lady Clementina Villiers, Earl of Eldon ' Lord Prudh-ie, Lady Ward, the Hon. Miss Ward, Dr. Phillimore, Lady Caroline Hamilton, Miss Hamilton, Lord Churchill, Lord Ward, Vis count Seaham, Marquis of Blandford, Lord H. Loftus, Lord Edwin Hill, Earl of Liverpool, Lord Cranley, Dean of Here ford, Colonel Bouverie, the Archbishop of York, the Bishops Of London, Chichester, and Winchester, Sir It. H. Bart., M. P. , Mr. Estcourt, M. r., Mr. Maclean, M.P., &c. The successive rounds of applause which saluted the proces sion as it moved towards the platform lasted for at least five minutes. When. the applausi.arl subsided, the undergradu ates in. the gallery 'gave cut in succession ".the Queen" and " The Prince" with great applause. .To these succeeded The Duke," with an equal amount of enthusiasm. In the course of reading the Act of Convocation, IA hvn his Grace the Chancellor alluded by name to " Augustissimus l'rinceps Albertus," the mention of his Royal Highness was hailed by 1 ud and prolonged cheers. His Grace the Chancellor then, turning towards Prince Albert, read an kddress to him from the University. The Chancellor then handed this Address, beautifully w.rit - ten on vellum, and sealed with the University seal, enclosed in a case of gold, to his Royal Highness, who was graciously pleased to accept it, and briefly returned thanks for the honour thus conferred upon him, expressing. the. deep satisfaction which it afforded him to visit this •renowned seat of learning—a satisfaction which was enhanced by his recollect ion of the favour previously conferred upon him by admitting him an honorary member of their distinguished University. The Prince's brief 'Address was receive:l with the loudest silents ~of approbation. ‘• Three cheers for Prince Albert," were called for, and the call was respended to by nine roends of skpplausP._ ... - The Public Orator then delivered an address in Latin, ap propriate to the occasion of his Royal Highness's visit to the University, and alluding in extremely felicitous terms to the distinguished anilals of the house of Saxe Coburg. Ad verting ,to the merits of his Royal .Highness's glorious ances tor, -the Eleotor FreTderick, the Orator coupled the name of Frederick with that of Lather amidst the loudest applause, which reached its acme when he described the Prince's re nowned progenitor as " Papali superstilioni acerrismis hostis-" His Grace the Chancellor then conferred the honorary de gree of Doctor in Civil Law upon the following noblemen and gentlemen : -His Grace the Duke of Marlborough, his Grace the Duke of. Sutherland, the Earl of Live-pool, Earl Camden, Lord Ashley, Lord Prudhoe, Sir John Johnston, Bart., Sir Edward Bowater, K.C.8., and Mr. John Lovcley, high sheriff of the county of Oxford. The announcement of each name was received with applause. His Grace the Chancellor in each instance pronounced the words " Admitto to ad gradum doctoris in lege civili honoris cause," and then turning to the community, inquired in a loud tone of voice, " Plaeet ?" to which the respon,e was in each cam the most deaf,ning cheers. The Public Orator preceded the announcement of the dignity conferred upon each individual by a happily worded panegyric. In the cases of the several noble asp,rants. he dwelt on their high lineage , and on the great public acts in which they and their ancestors had taken part. When it came to Sir E. Bowater's turn, he alluded to the valour displayed by the gallant officer on the plains of Waterloo, of which he bore the commemorative medal on his bosom, and happily associated him with the illustrious Chan cellor in the glorious recollections of that " foughten field." The most enthusiastic cheers hailed the sonorous Lainisms in which this tribute of just praise was conveyed; and the cheer ing was renewed when the illustrious Duke, in a classical version of th- ordinary phrase,:" the Gallant Gentleman" sum moned Sir Edward to add mercurial to his martial honours by the epithet " f , rtissinms vir." The concession of the honorary degress having been con cluded, the turn of the youthful heroes in the gallery arrived, and a rapid succession of political sentiments was given utter once to. The under-graduatcs havir.g wound themselves up to a pitch of great excitement, manifested a disposition t ) he obstrep2- rt,us for a longer period than was cons;stent with The conclave's grave decorum," and the illustrious Chancellor ref eatedly put up his hand, and ha.l several times to sh,ke his head, which was done, however, in the most good humoured manner, before he could reduce the refractory to submis:ion. No doubt his Glace found it much more difficult to command his collegiate phalmx ihan he ever had found it to regulate the movements of 50,000 troors in battle. Wlien silence was restored, Professor Kebb'e pronounced from the rostrum the Creweiaa oration in Latin, containing the customary honourable mention of the founders and bene factors of the different Colleges and Halls, and recording the principal events of the last academical year. The prize essays were then recited by the fortunate concur rents, the prizes having been determined by the Vice •Chan cellor, the two Proctbrs, Public Orator, and Professor of Poetry, as follows : For English Verse.—" The Sandwich Islands." Samuel Lucas, Commoner of Queen's College. For Latin Verse.—‘• Vife per Angliam ferro strata." Fre deric Fanshaw, Scholar of Biliol College. For English Essay.—" The pleasures and advantages of literary pursuits compared with those which arise from the excitement of political life." George Marshall, Student of Christ Church, and Craven Scholar. For Latin Essay.—" De-Etruscorum cultu, legibus, et rno ribus, eorumque aped llomanos vestigds." Benjamin Jowett, Fellow of Batiol College. Portions of the English poem were superior to the average productions of this description. The Latin poem, which was in very smooth hexameters, contained occasional and rather marked reminiscences of Virgil. Many of the allusions to the marvels of steam, which in its Latinized form of " vapor" sounded an pest mequin, were very felicitous. The poem con cluded with a rural picture, embodying the bucolic image of a herd of cattle drinking ; and the descriptive words— " delcenique bibunt a flumine vitam," Provoked a laugh by the obviors quiz which they suggested upon that great modern rival of steam—teetotalism. At the conclusion of the recital of the prize essays, his Royal Highness and the Chancellor retired, amidst similar plaudits to those which hailed their entrance, and were fol lowed by the heads of hours. and the noble and other dis tinguished visitors,upon which the theatre was speedily cleared. His Royal Highness, attended by the members of his suite, then proceeded to the Town -hall, for the purpose of receiving addresses from the city and the county. His Royal Highness was received at the door of the Town-hall by the Mayor, the High Steward (his Grace the Duke of Marlborough), the Aldermen of the City, the Members of the Common Council, and the Town Clerk. Mr. Maclean, M.P. for the City, was also present. The Town-hall was ked up very tastefully with banners, and. a platform was constructed for the accom modation of 500 ladies, which was densely filled. His Royal Ilighnr ss was conducted to the Council Cham ber, when, having taken his sect upon a chair of honour, he was pleased to receive an address, which was read by the Town Clerk, to which the Prince ade a suitable reply. Mr. J. LOVELEY, High Sheriff, then read to his Royal Highness an address from the county of Oxford, to which his Royal Highness was pleased to return a suitable r: ply. The foregoing address was agreed to at a meeting of the nobility, clergy, and gcnrry, which, took place on Friday last at the Star Hotel, far the . purpose of voting an address to his Royal Highness, and at which the chair was taken by the High Sheriff, who called the meeting in pursuance of a requi sition which he had previously received. The address was pro posed by his Grace the Duke of Marlborough, seconded by Lord Churchill, and carried unanimously. Immediately after the presentation of those cddresses, the Prince proceeded to St. John's College, where a sumptuous entertainment was served up in the hall, at which ail the heads of ho uses an d many o f t h e other distlnguished visitors were present. His Royal Highness, attended by his Grace, the Chancellor, and the heads of houses, then proceeded to visit the chief ob jects of attraction in the University, the Bodleian library, Christ's Church, the University printing-office, Dr. Buck land's Museum, &c. At four o'clock his Royal Highness at tended Divine service in the beautiful chapel of New Hall, the most elegant ecclesiastical edifice in Oxford, where sixteen choristers executed the appro?riate Church music with admi rable precision and beauty. At five o'clock precisely his Royal Highness returned to Nuneharo to dinner, loudly cheered by the numerous spectators, and escorted as be by the Oxford. shire Yeomanry Cavalry. In about half an hour afterwards his Grace the Duke of Wellintz-ton set out. (as we understood) for Blenheim, the seat of his Grace the Duke of Marlborough, which it is his Royal Highness's intention to visit this day, and return in the evening to Nunehr.m. A horticultural show was kid during the course of the afternoon in Worcester College gardens, which the Provost. and Fellows with great kindness and liberality lent for the oc cation. In the evening the grand commemoration bsll took place at :hr. , Star hotel and was -, 7ery brilliantly attended. Dancine- commenced at ten and was kept up to a late hour, under the ar.3pices of the following Neblemen and gentle men, who acted as patrons :—Lord Ward, Viscount Seaham, the Marquis of 13Iandford, the Marquis of Kildare, Lord H. Loftus, Lord Edwin Hill, the Hon. G. Hastings, the Hon. F. W. Cadegan, and Mr. C. P. Leslie. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. Isaac Puletholpe was indicted for the manslaughter of Watson, a sailor on board the ship St. James, American packet. ship, on the 2d June last. Mr. Chambers defended the prisoner. Frederick Mayor was master on board the St. James. The prisoner was cook on board the vessel, and the deceased was steward. On the 2d June lust, was on deck, and saw the prisoner and deceased there. They were quarrelling, and they put themselves in a position to fight. The deceased was challenging the prisoner. Witne=s went up and parted them. Diu not see any blow struck by either party. If there had been a blow, must have seen it. James Russell deposed that he was a seaman on board the St. James. Saw the prisoner and the deceased quarrelling on the 2d June. Saw the prisoner strike the steward a blow, but could not say whether it was a severe one, or on what part of the body the blow took effect. Several witnesses were called, who deposed to having seen the prisoner anti deceased quarrelling, but none of them saw any blow struck. One of them deposed that the deceased had received a fracture of the ribs about two months pre vious to the day in question. Mark Browne Garrett deposed that he was a surgeon, re siding in the New-road. On the 3d of June he was called in to see the deceased. The deceased was of a lull habit of body, and on examination the witness could not tell whether his ribs had been fractured or nut, but the remedies he applied were as for a fractured rib, and they seemed to relieve the deceased. Witness attended him for some days, when he died. After death the body was opened by the 'winless. On the left side of the lungs there was a considerable adhe sion, and the right side was considerably congested. One of the lower ribs was fractured. Frem that exa mination he should say that the cause of death was from inflamation, occasioned by the fractured rib. The fracture seemed to have been a recent fracture. It could not have been so lung ago as two months. Cross-examined—Found the ribs considerably ossified. The effect of that ossification was to make the ribs more brittle. If the party in such a case sustained a fall, or was put to any sudden exertion, It would be probable that the ribs would snap. Cases were on record of persons whose ribs were in this state who, on suddenly turning round, the ribs have snapped. Part of the lungs were also ossified. Would not take on him self to soy that the fracture he saw might have been caused two months before, but thought it improbable. Mr. CHAMBERS, having addressed the Jury, and the Learned Judge having summed up, the Jury, without any he sitation, returned a vet diet of—Not Guilty. John Reid, aged 19, was indicted for the wilful murder of Eli!is Enough upon the high seas, within the jurisdiction of the Admiralty of England. There was a second count in the indictment, charging the prisoner with cutting and wounding with intent to do some grievous bodily harm. The facts of the case have recently been before the public. Tho Jury returned a verdict of Guilty on the second count, and the prisoner was sentenced to fifteen years' transportation. Richard Stait, 28, was charged that he, having been before convicted of uttering counterfeit coin, and sen tenced to two years' imprisonment, did afterwards utter a'counterfeit half-crown to a person named Sarah Per reau, well knowing the same to be counterfeit. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Doane conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Payne defended the prisoner. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner went to the Royal Standard public-house, in Fleming-street, Kingsland-road, and asked for a glass of gin, which he paid for with a sixpence. He then asked for change fin half a sovereign, and shortly after the prisoner' said " Give me.five shillings for the two half-crowns," and at the same time laid down two half-crowns, and she dis covered that the underneath one was a bad one, and she told him so, and also that she was sure it was not one of those she had given him, and he took up the counterfeit coin and left the house.. The prisoner almost imme diately afterwards went to the house of Mr. Poole, the Whitmore's Head, Hoxton Old Town, where he tried the same trick with more success. He obtained the change, but the fraud was discovered and the prisoner was fol lotved and brought back, and Mr. Poole accused him of uttering the bad half-crown, and told him he knew it was a bad one, and that he should detain him. A servant was then sent for a policeman, and while she was gone and the prisoner and Mr. Poole were standing. together,. the former struck Mr. Poole a tremendous blow on the head which felled him to the ground, and he then ran - out of the house. Mr. Poole followed him a short dis-. tanee and the prisoner turned back and knocked him. down a second time, and while he was upon the ground. he kiekc,.d him in a most brutal manner. The police. soon afterwards came up, but the prisonet made a most desperate resistance, and it was found necessary to tie him hand and foot and strap him on a stretcher before he could be taken to the station-house. Mr. Justice WIGHTMIN summed up the evidence, and the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The Learned jUDGE told the prisoner he had been convicted of a serious offence under very aggravated circumstances, and he sentenced him to be transported for fifteen years. illarc.itant, 2S, was indicted for forgery, and uttering a check for •111. 10s., with intent to defraud George lloward, Mr. Doane defended the prisoner. it appeared that the prisoner, representing himself to be a cattle dealer, took lodgin g s at the house of the pro secutor, who keeps' thelfMoon public-house, West Smithfield, and when sonic money was due for refresh ment, &c., he tendered the check in question in payment, and the prosecutor gave him 81. 15s. in change. The check purported to be drawn by a person named Slater, upon Messrs. Masterman and Co.,.japt, on the check being preSented, no such person as Suter was known at the bankers. When the prisoner was taken into custody, a similar check, signed with the name of Cole, was found in his possession, and this also proved to be - a forgery. The prisoner was found guilty of uttering the check, knowing it to be forged, and it was stated that there were other indictments against him of a similar character.. Mr. Baron ROLFE sentenced him to be transported for fifteen years. The .Tudges left the Court at five o'clock, and they were succeeded by the Recorder, but the cases disposed of during the evening were of no public interest. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBORO UGH-STREET. Edward Hall, a young man of respeetab'e appearance, was placed at the bar, when police constable No. 66 of the A divi sion, stated that between five and six o'clock on Tues lay after noon, white on duty in Hyde Park, the prisoner came up awl accos'ed him, saying that he wished " to give himself up," as h.. had absconded with 50/. brlongaig to h.s mistress, and was so unhappy in his mind that he had le olved to bring himself to justice. Witness, therefore, took him to the station-house. Mr. _MALTBY inquired if the prisoner wished to say any= thing. The prisoner (who seemed in a very dejected stile of mind) said that he persisted in the truth of the statement he had made to the pollee constable. He htd for some years past been in the employ of a Miss Harriet Hatfield, a maiden lady, residing at Brimhill, near Shiffnal, Staf fordshire, as farming bailiff, and, shout six weeks ago, having received on his mistre s's account the sum of 50/. for corn, he was, in an evil hour, although he had load much larger sums in his possession, tempted to abscond with it, and come up to London, where he had smothered his feelings of self-reproach by plunging into an unceasing round of dissipa tion. lie could, however, no longer endure his sense of guil', and therefore gave himself up to the police constable, or else he felt quite sure he should have commited suicide. _ _ Mr. MA LTEY ordered him to be remanded until Saturday next, and in the interim Min Hatfield to be apprised of what had tran s pired.

MURDER AT WOOLWICIL—INQUEST.—Th e unfortunate man Grace, shot by APGarretty, an account of which has already been published, died after some hours suffering on the same day. An inquest was held on his body- , last evening at six oVock, in the Board-room of the Ordnance Hospital, before Air. C. J. Carttar, and a Jury of nineteen in habitants of the town. The p r i soner , James * llPGarretty, was marched from the barracks to the Board-room handcuffed, and guanled by a body of the Royal Artil!ery. He is a man about forty years of age, with small grey eyes, and a very sullen countenance, and betra3ed during the inquest no symptoms of emotion. From cri knee before the jury, it appeared from three witnesses that M'Garretty was tipsy at the time, or as he h mself expressed it, at the time the hand • cuffs were put on him "maddened by liquor." The declara tion of Grace when dying, had been , --" That the prisoner asked him to lend him some money, which he refused, because he (the prisoner) was tipsy, after he had urged him several times. The prisoner expressed the utmost repentance, and said he committed the act in a moment of irritation. Several officers and soldiers were examined, who gave the prisoner a general good character for his fifteen years' service. After an investigation of several hours, a verdict of " Guilty of wilful murder " was returned.
