MORNING EDITION POLITICAL SUMMARY OF THE MORNING JOURNALS. The Times of Saturday, speaking of the Poor-law Commissioners, with _reference to Friday's debate in the Commons on the subject, says—" The country by this time thoroughly understands the Commissioners and their system ; and even amongst those who, by a strange inconsistency, voted last night against the limitation of their powers, individuals were not wanting who denounced in the strongest terms their arrogance of tone, their unchristian and uncharitable princi ples, their gruel dietaries, their harsh, oppressive, and imprac ticable rules."—The Morning Chronicle remarks, in allusion to the new Poor-law Bill :—" The Poor-law stalking-horse has failed the Tories. The revision of the Bill has un masked their hollow pretensions. In whatever mitiga tions could be effected, the lead has been taken by their opponents. The Standard has lustily cried shame on the Conservatives, although the Standard never worked the unpopularity of the law as an instrument of public delusion like the Times. Sir Robert Peel's unmeaning proposition of five years instead of ten—a term too short for settled authority, and too long for experiment and the prospect of further revision, is all that. Toryism, as a party, hai done on this occa s i on . A nd so that weapon also , has fallen from their hands. They have lost their only hold upon the multitude."— 'the Morning Post observes, in a leading article suggested by some recent Conservative pamphlets:—" The Ministerial fac tion regard Sir Robert Peel, and not without reason, as the most formidable of their opponents. But they do not act wisely in getting up sham pamphlets in the name of " Con servative Memers," for the purpose of creating an impression that the great Conservative statesman does not enjoy the unqualified confidence of the powerful party in the State, of which he is the recognised leader. Such tricks indi cate too plainly that the party which descends to resort to them is on its last legs, and is conscious of the desperate state of its affairs. The folly of such self-exposure is conspicuous. As to honesty, that, of course, is quite out of the question ; but surely the Whig-Radicals might have been expected to retain so much self-possession and cunning in their downfal as not to pro laim to all the world the excess of terror and of hatred with which they regard the leader of the political phalanx th,at has overwhelmed and crushed them."—The Morn ing Herald thus expresses itself on the subject of the doctrines of Puseyism :—" That such opinions must quickly plunge men either into Popery or infidelity, is too plain to re quire any demonstration ; and that some loud, decisive, and unanimous declaration of the whole Bench of Bishops should take place respecting such anti-Protestant, ay, such anti- Christian, speculation, is also a matter which must occur to men of ordinary understandings. The heads of houses at Ox ford will not discharge their duty, unless they immediately dis claim their sanction to any such monstrous perversions of faith and reason."--The Morning Advertiser, recurring to the New Poor-Bill, observes as follows :—" There can be no ques tion that many humane amendments might be made, more especially in the out-d oor an d re li e f c l auses . Th e pu bli c wil not—eannot bear them. They are cruel, inhuman, and im. practicable; and further, they prevent the exercise of j udg. went on the part of local authorities." FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OP SATURDAY. (From the Globe.) All is changed in the Tory camp since 1835. Then the Tories professed themselves Conservatives of the limited monarchy against a democratic republic—of the House of Lords against the abolition of hereditary legislatare, and of the Established Churches against voluntaryism. All is changed. Monarchy, if attacked at all, is assailed only by the wildest of the Chartists. Not a murmur is now heard from the middle classes against lawgiving lords. Voluntaryism, if heard at all, only mutters feebly in out-of-the-way Dissenting meeting houses. But the Tories are aggressive. They have put the Whigs into a defensive—a Conservative position. The success of the adverstisements of Conservatism put forth by Sir Robert Peel is adduced by his ad mirers as proof unanswerable of his skill as a party leader. He has increased the numbers of the Tories, until their present strength encourages them to assume the aggressive. In 1835 they were 310, in 1841, they claim to be but 325—an Opposition which in six years has gained, even by their own account, only fif teen votes. We take our data from the author of the pamphlet—." Peel shall lead - us." The slowness of" this progress, and he fear lest the Government should throw itself on any of the great popular questions which lie at its band, produces the impatience of the leadership of Peel which " a Conservative Member" expresses, and which throws the party on the bolder courses pointed out by Stanley. Year after year rolls by, quarter after quarter comes, and no Tory finds any alleviation to his quarterly struggles against duns from any official sources and salaries. Ten years of salaries have been cut out of the life of the Tory place-hunter. A gloomy sense of de sertion and privation, therefore, makes his life a desolate thing, of which that of Mariana in the minted grange is only a fit emblem : " fie only said, The day is dreary,'— ' Place cometh not,' he said : He said, ' I am aweary, aweary, I would that Peel were dead.'" Sir Robert Peel has been more effectual in swelling the numbers of the Tories than in fulfilling his Reform promises of 1835. " Let us disclaim all interest in the maintenance of any abuse—let us declare that we are willing to redress any red grievance —and concur in the application of the best remedy which can possibly be devised for that purpose." Six years have elapsed since every clause of this sentence elicited applause in London and hope in the country ; and yet Sir Robert Peel has not even tried to remove one single abuse, to re dress a grievance, or apply a remedy. The paltry frank ing privilege was an interest in 'ho extortion postage too strong for him to disclaim it. The ardent Reformer of 1835 has not as yet attempted a reform iu 1841. (From the Standard.) Mr. Colquhoun's Bill respecting the College of May nooth is now printed, and we perceive that it accomplishes two important objects—it puts an end to a legislative fraud, and it takes from the College of Maynooth a legis lative sanction. The fraud is, that the Act of the Irish Parliament of the year 1800 (40 Gee. 111., C. 85), while it professed to subject the College of Maynooth to a visitation by the Lord Lieutenant, and by five of the chief judges in Ireland—which, had it been real, would have afforded to the public some sort of security for the cha racter of the instruction in the College—did, in fact, exclude these functionaries from all knowledge, still more from all power to interfere with the only part of the instruction which it was material for the State to know. The act, there. fore, places in the eyes of the public an ostensible visita tion, by which the State is deceived. It is of importance that this deception should cease, and that the public should know, what has bees for forty years the truth, that the State exercises no control whatever over the College of Maynooth. Mr. Colquhoun's Bill takes from the official visitors their pretended powers, and places the matter pa pably before the public ( From the Courier.) We are glad to observe efforts are making to obtain a more equitable adjustment of our fiscal arrangement as regards the importation of Brazil sugars and coffee into this country for home consumption. Mr. John B. Moore and Mr. Saunders, from Liverpool, have been deputed specially upon this subject, and have had interviews with Lord Melbourne, Sir Robert Peel, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Presi dent of the Board of Trade, Lord F. Egerton, and other influential Members of Parliament, relating to this important and interesting topic. It is fearful to contemplate that a trade of such magnitude, and so important as that carried on with Brazil, should be jeopardised for the want of timely and just conc2ss:ons to bring the clut'es down to such a scale as to admit of those products being admitted for home consumption, which might be done, and at the same time afford ample protection to our colonial interests. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS , FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF SATURDAY. CHRONICLE—The favourable impression which the news brought by th e P a t r i c k H enry pro d uce d yesterday on the funds has been well sustained to-day, and the complete change ri of tone assumed by the Tory p or ti on o f th e L on d on press, their fidettee remark s thi s morn i ng, has added to the general con in the maintenance of peace with America. There is a general feeling of satisfaction entertained in the Cit y in consequence of the pacific character of the news now received, both from and gloom wh the United States and Paris. The anx iety the last year are beg e ing hung over the Money Market during to disappear, and a brighter pros pect to snow itself.f trust, also, to receive better accounts soon from the home WOrnawniutiatc,t‘uring districts, where the unsettled state of on,- relations merica t, ad produced a serious de presion, and many of the great owners were un d erstoo d war must to have ha be d recouveryrmuchse to shremoved, or. As their app re h ens i ons o f confidence wilt consequently timethe execution ofqorders revive, and activity again sp ring u for the United States. At the same in a very great revival in our Ameri can trade we cannot l oo k f or until the currency and banking concerns of the Union are placed u thee made to work o f satisfactory footing. The various States, too, must a more feel the necessity of proceeding vigorously i n maintaining their public credit, by bringing forwardmeasures to raise the means necessary by local taxation. Unle ss steps of this kind are adopted wherever there is a deficiency, and all intentions of repudiating State loans clearly and unambig, ously disclaimed by the state legislatures, it will be useless for the citizens of America to suppose that their national faith can be respected, and the classical alltuions of the new President, in his Inaugural Address, to the virtues of the ancient repub lics of Greece and Rome will only excite derision. POST.—A considerable business was done in the p u blic securities to-day, an d it was b us i ness o f a more solid an bona fide description than usual, the transactions being confined al mostentirely to our home stocks and for motley-. London and Westminster Bank were done at 21 to .2L- preen., and there was a demand for Commercial Bank of London shares at an improved quotation, but none were to be met with at the rates offered. Since the failure of Messrs. Wright and Co., of Covent-garden, several attempts have, we understand, been made to form a Roman Catholic private banking establish ment, but which, from various causes, have proved unsuccessful. It appears, however, that an arrangement has been concluded with the Commercial Bank for the opening of a branch in the West -end of the town, which is to have the support of that powerful connection. The banking premises re cently occupied 1.), Messrs. Wright and Company, in Henrietta-street, have been purchased from the assignees of the late firm by the Di rectors of the Commercial Ban where it is intended to commence operations immediately. Several leading gentlemen have been induced to join the Beard of the latter, and, so great is th e i nterest felt in the success of the undertaking, that a wealthy and highly influential Catholic nobleman has been named to us as having consented to become one of the trusteet:. The Commercial Bank has the advantage of being under the guidance of the most experienced and respeet. able managers that could probably have been secured for it, and it is in consequence of the additional scope that will no , i be afford e d f ur th e i r e xertions in behalf of the propri e t ar y , an d the increased strength it has acquired through the accessloa i f the parties to whom we have alluded, that the shares have been somewhat eagerly sought for by the dealers in this class of in vestments. Two of our Evening Contemporaries— The Sun and Courier —give a sort of contradiction t,i what we have stated respect in.. the sale ley the British and American Steam Navigation Company of their steamers British Queen and President to the Belgian Government; but they will, we have little doubt, discover, before long, that they have in so doing run a risk it was not altogethe r prudent to run without the most authentic information, and this we are very sure they cannot have ob tained. Applications were made to-day to the agents on the subject o f tonnage by the President for her nxt voyage to New York, but the answer was, that . no engagement could, for the present, be t entered into, with regard either to goods or passengers the time of the President's may, being some uncert4inty about may, for aught Ivo kno departure. That vessel another passage out and know to the contrary, undertake in the service of the Company. We do not pretendotmo be: informed uon the arti cular point. 4so has y et to 411 ' p p proved," as the British (Queen had been, bef ore th e con t rac t with the Belgian Govern ment can be deemed conclusive; but we are, nevertheless, dis posed to believe that, with her voyage to Liverpool, now on the eve of its termination, the connection will cease b e t ween t h at beautiful vessel and her English owners. Antwerp seems more likely to be her destination the ensuing trip. Consider ing that the President had been advertised again to leave Liverpool for New York on the 10th of next month, and that we are within fifteen days of the time, it is surely strange that the agents should reject freight and passengers, if it be intended that the two vessels shall continue running on account of the Company as heretofore, and this on the plea that there is a doubt about the day of sailing. TIMES.—With money in an eas y s t a t e , th e Government securities have been tolerably firm, and the bargains were in amount of more than ordinary character. In the circles more immediately connected with the shipping interest the late conviction of the Wallaces, at the Central Criminal sittings, for fraudulent insurances, has created a good deal of anxiety, which has been much increased by rumours current to-day that a vessel which left England in the autumn of last year was sent out under similar circumstances to those adduced at those trials, and would probably meet the same fate. It is not prudent at present to advert to these circum stances more in detail, but the eagerness evinced among the shipping interest for the exposure and punishment of such nefarious transactions is extreme, and highly creditable to them, though they need not fear any general imputations from such a cause, a remark which has been more than once hazarded. The character of the mercantile marine of England stands far too high to be affected by two or three isolated eases. The degree in which the colonies produce the staple arti c l es of our home m anu f ac t ures is always a matter of interesting in quiry. In this view attention may be usefully directed to pri vate letters recently received from Graham's Town, Cape of Good Hope, by which it appears that the sheep farmers of the eastern province of the Cape, 600 miles from Cap e T own, are making great progress both in the number of their flocks and in the quality of their wool, though they have been much per plexed as to what kind they ought to prod uce , i n consequence of the Londo n market showing a great predilection in favour of common wools, The forward flocks are for the most part Saxon, but many of these are being crossed with t h e L e i cester breed, which, although it seems likely to cause a decline in the quality of the wool, is not regarded as a proceeding likely to be altogether unprofitable. HERALD.—The business activity in the home stocks to day showed something like a return to old times, and although no special rise in prices has to be noted, the general aspect of the market was of a more stable and satisfactory character than usually results on the occurrence of some strong and unexpec ted turn of prices one way or the other, which is generally succeeded by a proportionate state of depression or reaction. LAW INTELLIGENCE. IZE INTELLIGENCE. CIVIL SIDE. (Before Mr. Baron PARKE.) BROWE V. SCRACE. This was an action to recover damages of the de fendant for having, as was alleged, wantonly defamed the character of the plaintiff, and a plea for special da mage was also set up. Mr. Thesiger, Mr. Platt, and Mr. Charnock were for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Shee and Mr. Creasy for the defendant. Mr. THESIGER said the plaintiff in this action was a respectable medical man, carrying on business at Brighton, and the defendant was also a tradesman and headborough of the same town. The defendant had thought proper upon the public race-course to make use of such language, and cast imputations of so offensive a character upon the plaintiff that he was compelled in his own vindication to adopt the present proceeding, and his only object in so doing was to vindicate himself from the imputations cast upon him. Mr. Richard Peilew deposed that he was a surgeon at Brighton, and he knew the plaintiff, who was of the same profesbioo. On the sth of last August he was with a gentleman named Collins, at the Brighton races, and he heard the defendant tell the plaintiff' that he had come home drur k and had " whopped" his wife, and dragged his dead child out of the coffin, and he repeated the same expressions a second time. Witness, in con sequence of these expressions being used, declined to meet the plaintiff at the time. Cross-examined—He said at the moment that he should decline holding any communication with the plaintiff, but after consideration he should not now ob ject to it. John Goldsmith deposed that he was an innkeeper at Lewis, and he was present when the occurrence took place. The defendant was acting in his capacity of headborough, and he ordered the plaintiff off the course. They both appeared rather excited, and the defendant said, " There's a pretty rascal, he went home t'other night and beat his wife and pulled the dead child out of the coffin." Cross-examined—Did not bear the plaintiff say " Who are you Mr. Pinchcrust ? you had better go home and sell short weight."--(Laughter.) Mr. F. Collins deposed that he went with plaintiff to the races, and while they were standing together the defendant came up and pushed roughly against them, and told the plaintiff that he must leave the course. Plaintiff civilly refused, and asked for his authe- rity to remov.? him, and he produced a staff, and said that was his authority. The plain tiff then said that he might have asked him to go in a more civil manner, and the de fendant then made use of the expressions imputed to him. Plaintiff had attended witness and his family professionally before this, but since that event he had never been in hi: house, and he told the plaintiff that he could not allow him to do so until he had cleared his character. plaintiff's 'aweahrio,nnugeshei ne ra t Cross -examined —He told theplaintiff that h o go into Court, and offered to be hi s witne u s e „.. ought H e ha I been in g , ' a ' neighbourl a ginr u and drank some ant called out, Sarah Kin at the time the plaintiff's heard no noise or have done so, she said, if any such thing u cv zt e , ra t l he ti b m a e k s e , r.l n d some timeswacthoteitridhweipthlahinimtiff., T p h ro e v d e( c i fe th m a l : This being the case for the plaintif, SHEE submitted to the Court that there to go to the Jury. e; ;and occurred.

Gell for assaulting Mr. Fullager, has created a ve r y g r eat sensation in the m town of Lewes, and our correspondent was informed that another application wa: made to the Learned Judge to rescind the sentence of imprisonment, but he refused to do so, and the only amelioration of that sentence has been that the defendants were ordered to be sent to the debtors' gaol at Horsham, instead of the House of Correction. If they had gone to the later prison they would have been compelled to wear the prison dress and to have the prison allowance, and this must have been felt most severely by persons in their station of life. - - ARMY AND NAVY.—Th e A pr il _urnber of The United Service Journal and Naval and Military Magazine contains, among other important papers :—On the Present Numbers and Organization of the Army— The British Colonies considered as Military Posts, by Lieut.

ROLLS' COURT, Me nere'27. PENNING V. lIUMPFIERY. The arguments of Counsel upon this motion, which oc cupied the greater part of yesterday, were resumed this morning. It was a motion to discharge for irregularity an order directing the plaintiff, Mrs. Fennings, to elect whether she would proceed in her suit in equity for the specific performance of an agreement entered into with her by the defendant, Alderman Humphery, M. P., or in her action at law for damages occasioned by the non-performance of the agreement. The agreement was entered into in May 1837, by which Alderman Hum phery agreed to let to the plaintiff, at a certain yearly rent, a cellar under the warehouses at Hibernia Wharf, on the Surrey side of London-bridge, and to excavate and form a vault contiguous to the same, within eighteen months, from the 24th of June in the same year. The defendant having violated his agreement, the plaintiff prayed by her bill for its specific performance. Each party had brought actions at law against the other—the plain tiff for damages for the non-performance of the agreement, and the defendant for rent due to him from the plaintiff. Mr. Pemberton and Mr. Jommett appeared for the plaintiff in support of the motion, and Mr. Bethel' and Mr. Dunn for the defendant. At the conclusion of the arguments this da the Master of the Roll s stated that he wished to l oo k int y o the pleadings, and would deliver judgment on Wednesday. ASS ROME ClRCUlT.—Lxwmr,feitcm 27. The business of this Assize concluded last night, and the Learned Judges left Lewes this morning for town. CROWN COURT. (Before Lord DENBKAN.) Robert Fuller, the man who pleaded guilty on Tues day to a charge of aggravated assault upon his wife, under such circumstances as to leave very little doubt that his intention was to have murdered her, and whose judgment was respited, was brought up to receive the sentence of the Court. Lord DENMAN addressed the prisoner in a most im pressive manner, and said, that although the prosecutors had consented to allow him to plead guilty to the charge of assault only, it was the duty of the Court to look at the evidence, and upon the depositions a more aggra vated case never could be made out, and it would ap pear to have been almost a special interposition of Pro vidence that his unhappy wife had not become a victim to the attack wade upon her, in which case his own life would most certainly have been sacrificed. Under the circumstances, the Learned Judge said that he felt his duty to the public compelled him to pass the most se vere sentence affixed by the law for the offence of which he had been convicted. The prisoner was then sentenced to be imprisoned for three years ; and the Court also directed that the last fortnight of each three months he should be kept in solitary confinement. POLICE " Exeter, March 3, 1840. " Dear Sir—Since I last had the pleasure of seeing you I have been to London purposely to examine the affairs of this Society, and I can assure you that the re ports issued against them are wholly without foundation. The principal part of them are gentlemen living on their own property. The following is the result of my inves tigation, which must surely satisfy the minds of any parties insured with them of their respectability :- 63,000/. in the Bank of England, to meet emergencies. 160,000/. on mortgage property in London, at 7 and 8 per cent. 40,000/. in reversionary property. 120,0001. on different funded securities. 3 0001. in the Bank of Scotland. 30,000/. on mortgage seourity in that country. 10,0001. on landed security in that country. And their paid up capital is 37.5,000/. Now, Sir, with these facts before you, I shall leave you to form your own judgment, at the same time, we by no means wish to deprive you of the benefit you expected to receive ; and although you have no moral right or claim to your policy by your allowing the time to expire, still, if you wish to renew it, Mr. will grant you the receipt. " I am, Sir, your most obedient servant, Now (continued Sir Peter Laurie) there appear the fol lowing names in the prospectus, as trustees and ma nagers of this Company, which is said to possess valu able and exclusive privileges in regard to the profitable investment of capital : James Alexander, Esq. Alfred T. Knowles, Esq. George Anderson, Esq. John Lloyd, Esq. Thomas Bedford, Esq. H. R. Perkin, Esq. James Drummond, Esq. Thomas Price, Esq. Samuel Eyre, Esq. William Reid, 8,,q. Robert Fergusson, Esq. Edward W. Taylor, Esq. Thomas Hope, Esq. John Wilson, Esq. William Hole, Esq. Wm. Whittaker, D I . and I have ascertained that not one of these Esquires is in existence except Allred Thomas Knowles, Esq., and William Hole, Esq., who is the secretary. I have been given to understand that Mr. Knowles actually waited upon Sir J. Reid, the Governor of the Bank of England, and requested him to allow himself to be named Director of the Company, stating at the same time that he could command a number of votes at Dover. In fact, it is no wonder that my ignorant countrymen were imposed upon by the manoeuvres which was practised, for amongst other allurements, they sent down to Glasgow a number of the most splendid fire-engines ; but I have learned that a vast number of people of fortune, who were anxious to get the most they could for their money, were so attracted by the li berality of the scale as not to see that the game was a desperate one to those in whose hands their hard cash was to be deposited, and that a vast number of thousands have been swamped without the least noise, exposure being considered discreditable. Mr. Hobler said he apprehended that there were other associations, the flashy appearance of which im posed upon many, and the stability of which was not much more secure. Mr. Marshall observed that there was perhaps at present greater caution necessary than usual in guard ing against the impression made by elegant buildings, as they were rising every day all around in the neigh bourhood of the Rink. Sir PETER LAuazE—Most certainly there is. lam extremely glad to hear that Mr. Labouchere has given notice of his intention to move on Thursday next for the appointment of a Committee to inquire into the conduct of Joint Stock Companies. It is right that such an inquiry should proceed, as it were, under the sanction of the Board of Trade, and I shall take the liberty of suggesting to the Committee the propriety of ascertaining from the several insurance companies the following intelligence, and demanding the following se curity for the public :—I shall propose that the number of the insurance companies be stated, that the number of the insured, and the several amounts for which they are insured be particularised, together with the average ages of the insured, and that they be valued by the Government tables, and the companies be called upon to show the assets they possess to meet the demands upon them. A regulation to such an effect would be attended with the best:consequences, and I trust that the Committee will proceed resolutely to prevent the repetition of such atrocities as have been committed by the Independent and West Middlesex Lite and Fire Assurance Company. MANSION-HOUSE. After a charge against a man of the name of Bridge for assau;ting a Bank porter, had been disposed of. Sir PETER LAURIE took the opportunity, as there were three or four of the principal officers of the Bank present, to ask some questions and make some observa tions relative to the Independent and West Middlesex Assurance Company, which had caused so much ruin amongst those who had been rash enough to place con fidence in the fellows who-bad concocted that scheme of robbery, and had impudently published the Bank of England and Coutts's bank as the places at which they kept their accounts, for the purpose of more effectually blinding their victims. Mr. Marshall said it was very true that the mana gers, as they called themselves, of the Independent West Middlesex Fire and Life Assurance Company had opened an account with the Bank of England, but he saw that the concern was one with which the Bank could not be justified in having anything to do, and insisted that the account should be closed, which was accordingly done. The public were certainly deeply indebted to Sir Peter Laurie for having so complete'y exposed the transactions of the persons who were con nected with the Company. Sir PETER LAURIE-I am glad to find you, Mr. Marshall, and Mr. Smee, the comptroller of the Bank of England, are here ; for I have received from Mr. Anderton, of Bridge-street, Blackfriars, a letter, which, he informs me, was written by the Exeter agent of the Company, and which shows with what energy the in dividuals called their agents endeavoured to advance their interests,—Messrs. Hole and Knowles, who have the principal merit of getting up the delusion. I must confess that I was never more astonished than upon perusing it. It was addressed to a gentleman who wished, in consequence of the reports he had heard to have nothing more to do with the Independent We Middlesex Life and Fire Assurance Company : " West Middlesex Insurance Office. GUILDHALL. On Friday Margaret Wilson and Ann Carlow, were charged by a gentleman, whose name was said to be Smith, with picking his pocket of a purse, containing between five and seven pounds in gold and silver coin. The prisoners were remanded in consequence of an allee;ed remissness on the part of the police officers who took charge of the prisoners. On Saturday Mr. Inspector Fosberry told the Alder man that the men had acted pursuant to order. ALDERMAN—Am I to take it as your answer that the policemen are instructed not to go back and ex amine the spot where a robbery has been committed ? Inspector—We act upon written orders. ALDERMAN—Let me see them. Have you any writ ten orders at all ? Inspector—W e have the Act of Parliament. ALDERMAN-1 ask you again, have you any written orders ? Inspector—We have orders from the Com missioner. • ALDERMAN—I care nothing about the Commissioner - —he appears to rue to sat the Magistrates at defiance. Upon his being more closely pressed, the Inspector • admitted that they had no written orders applicable to the matter under inquiry, but p!eaded that they ought to have a discretionary power. ALDERMAN—There appears to be great neglect ; this is the second case of felony this week that has fal len to the ground, and the ends of justice frustrated, through sheer negligence. It the metropolitan police had taken the prisoners, they would have ransacked every hole and corner, and doubtless have found the property. The prisoners must be discharged. Edwdrd Brown and John Smith, who were remanded for the atti-odance of the solicitor to the Mint, were :wain brought up on a charge of uttering base coin. They had previously been charged with assaulting two fellow-prisoners in the cell at the police station. It appeared that the policeman had neglected to in form Mr. Powell or any of the Mint officers that the prisoners were in custody ; hence, he also was severely reprehended by the Alderman, who sent a messenger to the Commissioner's office for some one to attend to report another frustration of the ends of justice. Inspector Todhunter attended, and said that it was the d uty of the officer to apprise the Mint authorities that p ersons were under charge, and that their attend ance was necessary ; h e wou ld report to the Commis sioner place.ish The whatprisoners bad were d arged and told that the had t o thank a negligent . policeman.

Colonel Torrens said a friend of Mr. Palmer's had called upon him for satisfaction, end he told him he•would not give any unless certain expressions, made use of in a correspondence to Lord John Russell, were first with drawn. After some conversation witness said be, Mr. Palmer, had declared he would assault him in the public streets; and the answer he gave him was, that if he did s.) he would prosecute him criminally. Mr. Palmer said if the Colonel pledged his word no meeting would take place before to-morrow be would be satisfied. Mr TWYFORD said it was a very delicate affair tor him to interfere without some legal vidonce, and he thought there were better grounds for binding over Mr. Palmer to keep the peace than Colonel Torrens, who threitenei to take Irgal procet dirge. Colonel Torrens mud the cause of the misunderstanding was, that Mr. Palmer Ind 'e ce•tai representot:ons injurious to his character, which were contrary to what ap peared in his own handwriting. Mr. TWYFORD desired the officer to execute the watr Int immediately against Mr. Palmer , and b r i ng hi m b e f ore him, aad ho would hind him over in 4001. and two sure.. ties in 2001. to keep the peace.
