(TillS DAY.) (Before the RECORDER., and Mes.srs. COPELAND, CARROL., and Sir CHAPMAN MARSHALL, Aldermen.) Richard Archer and John Suthea land were indicted fur assaulting William Miller. It appeared by the evidence that the parties met in Cursitor-street, and an altercation having arisen a box ing match ensued, when the prosecutor received a severe blow, in consequence of which he was confined for several weeks in the hospital. Mr. I'ayne defetaLd the prisonc - . - s, and cross ex amined the prosecutor, w1)0 said. his mother was matron in the hospital, but he was admitted there as a patient, and did not go as a visitor to her. More than a week elapsed from the time of the assault until he- was ad mitted to the hospital, labouring under a concussion of the brain. He had been previously affected with a .brain fever, but did not attribute his recent illness to it. Several witneses haring been called for the defence, who stated that Archer had never struck the prosecutor, The RECORDE3 summed up, and said the que.,tion fur the Jury to de,ide upon was, whether the parties mu tually agreed to fight, or whether Miller was struck by the prisoners without any such agreement, as in the latter case alone could an indictment fur assault be laid. The Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. Rob'rt Shaw, alias Darrow, and Gorge Watson were indicted for assaulting Mrs. Sarah Abrahams. The brief - facts this case, which have been recently before the public, ‘vero, that the two prisoners passed a bad half-crown in the shop of the prosecutrix, and a po liceman, seeing them leave the shop, suspected what had been their object, when he brought them back in custody; and Mrs. Abrahams, having produced the half crown, the prisoner Shaw seized her by the. arm, and snatched it from her hand, which he swallowed. Thc other prisoner,Watson,calledout the cant phrase among smashers—" Gnash it." From the tact of the prisoners' having destroyed the half-crown no evidence could be ad duced against them of passing base coin, andin order that they might nut entirely evade justice the present in• dictment was laid. _ _ The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the pri s•ner3 were sentenced to three months' imprisonment, with hard labour. _ _ Several persons were indicted by the Police for keeping houses of ill- fame,and sentenced to terms of imprisonment, varying from six weeks to three months, and ordered to enter into their own recognizances in the sum of 3001., to be of good behaviour for two years. The nuisances complained of were mostly situated in the Courts lead ing from Fleet-street. SPIRIT of the PUiiLIC J URNA L S r:1074 EVENING PAPERS OF THIS GLOBE.—The only efficient mode of Church Ex tension has been at length put in operation ; and, judg ing of the harvest by the first fruits, bids fair to tffect incalculable advactiges. By an Act passed in the 1 tst Parliament, in pursuance of the Fourth It-port of the Eac'esiaatical Commissioners, certain canon ries and prebends in several cathedral and core elate churches were suspended, and their revenues devoted to the purpose of augmenting the amount of stipend derived from poor benefices, especially in populous parishes—thus obviating the necessity imposed ou the clergy for hotting more than one cure, in order to obtain a sufficient amount of income. An Order in Council, bearing date the 6th inst., is now before us. By this it appears that, under the prt.v;sions of the above Act of Parliament, warty 100 poor benefices, which combine the largest amount of population with the smallest amount of eedownient, have been augmented by grants from the funds tour derived, in sums varying from 1'261. to 61 A gross sum of 123,8001. in Three per Cent. Stock Lao been thu, distributed. When it is remembered that the Act has been in operation but little more than a year, it cannot fail to gratify the friends of religion generally, and the members of the Establishment rspecinln, when the) find the absohately useless tied unssghtly appendages to the Church separated from the structure wh:ch the) so long disfigured and wetkened, and their revenues applied to a purpose which every honest lica , t will ap prove—that of affording to the working clergy sti pends somewhat commensurate with the labour tney take, and thus diminishing their ana'eties respecting worldly things, which corrode an,: distract, and enabLeg them to give undivided and devoted attention to the duties of their spiritual calling. We are not of the number of " levellers, who wish to see the in:omes of the clergy equalized." On the contrary, we think it absolutely necessary that the heads of the Church should be supplied from the revenues of the Church with funds adequate to the stations which they occupy, and to the exercise of the 'virtues that should adorn them, among which enlightened beneficence and unos. tentations hospitality are not the least. STANDARD.—'‘ The League" has at length corn mitteds itsel to the "total and immediate abolition" of the Corn-laws. Qualification or delay is not now to be entertained—nothing less than total and immediate abolition will satisfy, or at least will silence, the con federacy. For this unequivocal declaration of tla designs of the miilowners t':e country is indented to cur old friend Mr. Joseph Sturge, who has ern ployed to that end the means which are proverbially said to" make the mare to go.' Mr. Sturge, it appear!, mails a promise o f an annua l payment of money ( we b e li ese 2001.) to aid the oierations of the Leave—a promis, which eaurcd the eyes of the Sidney Smiths and the Ac lands to seaskle with peculiar lustre, and the faith of which " they raved, recited, maddened through t:..e groans land," unahashe , l by the and hisses of the min. lion, and unseated by eventhbroadest hints of proxi mate horse.ponds. AU the while Joseph Sturge was .s on his trayels in the United States, very properly exert ing himself to promot e the abolition of negro slavery ; but, as it is not uncharitable to now and then resting his jaded philanthropy suppose , calculation as to the probable returns of th a A w im i a til s e t r y ican harvest, view to a and their effect upon the mark et , less certaia merit , different abolition of known, Jotoph Storge is an extensive c or n dealer it of Birmingham and Mark-lane.

" Nay," replied Joseph, emy promise w s c onditional, and thee hest violated th e conditioc. 'net„ 1-. as t united thyseif to an Administration that talks of a duty of Ss. a quarter, whereas I contemplated total and immediate abolition." As to the scheme for extending the :lave trade, Joseph said nothing of it ; for, its wt have remarked, he had squandered all hi s thropy i n t h e New World. F or a time the League seemed to demur to the pl:a of a condition, and possi bly l a w: e-s were consulted ; but• in the ead they struck, as 8.1 such men will strike, when money is Init. by obstinacy, or [money g ained by submission. M i ra owner Cobden and Lecturer Smith declared themselves— " for better for worse, Still ruled by the man who carried the purse ;" and committed themselves to t ttal and immediate abo. 1.1606 , regretting, no doubt, that they could not, to gratify their monied friend, go furtatr tnaa the total, or begin sooner than the immediate.

Bat although, as we have seen, ;t finds no favour, yet it has produced a world of mischiJ, and appears likely to produce more. In the first pLce it has contrived to preserve in unimpaired distinctness the broad line of demarcation between different sections of the community, first drawn by the penal laws, and to maintain in full and vigorous malignity the mutual and animosities:cherished on either side L of that dividing line ; and next, to divert men's minds and attention, who had the will and the power to promote measures beneficial to that country, from a consideration of its condition under the disheartening conviction that, propose what they would, and exert themselves as they might in the furtherance of wise and salutary reforms, there was at work a principle of mischief which would baffle and counteract them all. It is upon Ireland itself that the frantic project of Repeal exerts such a baneful influ ence ; and therefore it is that we rejoice to find men— such men as the Earl of Shrewsbury and Mr. Sharman Crawford—cominv forward to denounce it as fraught with mischief to the best interests of that portion of the Uniten Kingdom. Sir James- Graham had a long interview with Sir Robert Peel this morning, at the Right Hon. Baro net's residence in Whitehall-,gardens. The Chancellor of the Exchequer left town yesterday afternoon for his seat, Betchworth House, near Dorking. The Right Hon. Gentleman is expected to return this evening. THE NEW COURTS OF CHANCERY.—Work men are now actively engaged in erecting Courts for the sittings of the two new Vice-Chancellors, appointed under the Administration of Justice Act, for expediting the business of the Court of Chancery. Ihe site se lected is Old square, Lincoln';. Inn, at the back of the Lord Chancellor's Court. CONVERSION OF LORD AND LADY HOCLAND TO THE CATHOLIC FAITH.—W e rejoice to announce the conversion of Lord and Lady Holland to the (Roman) Catholic -faith, which gratifying event took place in. Rome the latter end of last month. In connection with such a circumstance, it is highly interesting, that the intelligence has been brought by a young English gentle man, who went abroad a Protestant layman, and returns I a Catholic priest.—Curb Examiner. We understand it is very piobable that Lieut.- General Lord Fitzroy Somerset, Military Secretary at the Horse Guards, will be shortly appointed to the go vernment of Madras. Major-General Sackvile Hamilton Berkeley succeeds Major-General Sir William Gomm in the com mand of the troops at Jamaica ; and Sir William will succeed Sir Charles Napier in command of the Northern District of England. Major General Berkeley served at the capture of Surinam in 1804, the Danish Islands of St. John and St. Croix in 1807, and of Martinique in 1809, including the siege of Fort Bourbon. The delay in filling up the vacant command of the Northern Dis trict has arisen from the Horse Guards waiting the receipt of a communication from Sir W. Gomm. SINGULAR FAC r.—A few clays ago, a woman residing in the village of Stevenston, who had for some time been affected with a sesere swelling in the thigh, applied to Dr. Brown, of Saltcoats, in order to get the pain alleviated. After minutely examining the swollen part, the doctor commenced to operate, and succeeded, after considerable labour, in extracting a sewing needle, about an inch and a half long, which the patient had swallowed nearly 30 years ago.—Caledonian Mercury. MILITARY INTELLIGENC . CHATHAM, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 20.—A detachment of the 38th Regiment, consisting of two officers, Lieutenant Hackett and Ensign Jarvis, one sergeant, and 40 rank and file, arrived at this garrison on Friday from Hull, and will proceed as soon as shipping can be procured to join the service companies at !ante. The depot of the 33d Regiment left this garrison on Friday last, and embarked from the Royal dockyard on board the Prince Regent transport, and sailed immedi ately for Cork. The following are the names of the officers :—Major R. Westmoon, Captain J. D. John stone, Captain J. B. Gough, Captain W. Maude, Cap tain IL K. Erskine, Captain J. Williams, Lieutenant T. Todd, Lieutenant J. Knight, Lieutenant Hon. J. Keane, Lieutenant J. B. Neil, Ensign C. W. Donovan, Ensign H. N. Burke, Ensign H. C. Fitz7,errdd, En•Agn G. Swaby, two officers of the mess, and Assistant-Surgeon M. M‘Donald ; there was one sergeant-major, two quar ter-master sergeants, and 205 non-commissioned officers and privates. The 33d regiment is now in the West In dies, and is called "The Duke of Wellington's," the Duke having been their. Colonel for some years. A detachment of tke 79th arrived yesterday at noon, consisting of one officer, viz., En,ign Aynsley, one ser geant, and 40 rank and file; they arrived on Monday night, about twelve o'clock, by the Adelaide steamer, erom Paisley. They encountered a dreadful passage, and on Sunday they saw two ships go down. Tlie Ade laide met with a trifling accident, which prevented them arriving earlier. The detachment was expected on Fri day last.. PRESENTATION OF NEW COLOURS TO THE 99T11 REGT. This morning the whole of the troops in garrison were under arms, and marched on to the lines, preparatory to the military spectacle about to be witnessed—that of ; iresenting the regiment with a new and splendid set of eolonrs. On the ground was a numerous assemblage of the gentry of the neighbourhood. About half-past twelve o'clock the Commandant, Colonel Sir W. Warre, K.C.8., together with General Sir H. Douglas, Colonel of the- 99th, appeared on the ground, followed by a nume rous staff. The usual military ceremonies baring been observed, the colours were consecrated by the Rev. Dr. Curtcis, the chaplain, who delivered a prayer suitable to the occasion. Miss Douglas, (laughter of the Colonel, then came for ward to present. the colours, which she did, delivering the following suitable address, with a firmness, that did honour to th daughter of a British soldier :—" I have great pleasure in presenting these splendid colours to the 99th Regiment, because I feel convinced that this excel lent corps will always be true to respect and honour them ; that if ever unfurled before an enemy they will he nobly borne to victory; and I most confidently be lieve that they will never, under any circumstances, fall into the hands of an enemy. I need scarcely say, that as the daughter of a soldier, and he your Colonel, I shall ,Iver fervently wish this excellent corps success, rrospe rity, and renown in all its undertakings." Ensigns Montgomerie, R. de Winton, G. de Winton, and Blackburn, then knelt down to receive the belts, ,vhiA were richly embroidered with velvet, and were the gift of the Lady of Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Gaspard le Merchant, of the same regiment, the whole of the regi ment presenting arms, the band playing " God save the Queen." After a few military movements the old colours were displaced for the new. A half battery was on the field, and fired a salute of 19 rounds. The regiment was ably and forcibly addressed by their Colonel, Sir Howard Douglas, trusting that whenever duty should be called for they would keep those virgin colours pure and spotless. The Colonel then paid high eulogium on the discipline of the regiment, not :orgetting the Lieutenant-Colonel, Sir Gaspard le.Mar dhant, who immediately advanced to the Colonel and tic • Icnowledged the compliment. The troops, consisting of the Royal Engineers, Royal Marines, and detachments of different regiments, then marched in review order before the Commander and the Colonel of the 99th. The number of men on the ground was 4,252 Privates, +9) ) Corporals, 273 Sergeants, 85 Drummers, 42 Staff, 101 Subalterns, 39 Captains, and 13 Field Officers. After the review a grand dejeuner in the new mess room was given by the officers to a numerous and fashion able assemblage. The Sergeants of the 99th gave a splendid dinner to the Sergeants of the different depots. DEATH F ROM:COLD.—Tue g s h d l ay, d th p e a s t ic h ula in r s iy t., was an extremely bad day in the mans !

From the , vital and rain, and the dense mist which covered the hills, they 1:)st their way, and wandered long, without knowing where they were going, among the almost. trackless hills. Cold, wet., hunger, and fatigue, se verely tried the stoutest of them ; and we regret to say that one woman, Isabel Watson, wife of Alexander Stewart, fella victim to the inclemency of the weather. She travelled on, with much spirit, till near the top of the Firmont, when becoming quite exhausted, she sunk under the cold and fatigue. Her daughter and the other woman in company, did all they possibly could to strengthen and animate her, but all their efforts proved unavailing. They somehuman n habitation i t w a then attempt e d to carry her along in hopes of reaching ree otimonan; on d h a is man hac k f who or w s a e s ve w ra i with miles, em carried but her getting worse, and finding himself unable to proceed farther with her, he was obliged to put her down. One party then hastened to seek assist ance, while her daughter, and others, remained with the lying woman, to render all the assistance they could. They placed part of their own clothes on her, but oothing they could do would warm or invigorate her perishing frame. It must have been a great trial to the poor girl to stand by and see her mother perishing with cold, and yet unable to render the least assistance. At last a horse and cart were brought to their assistance, but, ere then, nature was exhausted, and she had not !)een many minutes placed in the cart when the last feeble spark of life gave way, and all symptoms of animation were long gone ere they were able to reach a house.— , &Vela Paper.

A con siderable portion could not read, but many of them had been taught to read and even write, and do the first four rules of arithmetic while in prison. In Worcestershire the total number of prisoners committed from the y ear 1855 to 1341, both inclusive, amounts to 1,954. Out of this number of 1,954 no less than 771 prisoners could neither read nor write. This is about two - fifths of the iwhole.

Brand then called a metropolitan policeman, who re- I collected perfecly well, according to his statement, the occasion on which Mr. Morgan was brought before the Magistrate at Worship-street, and he recollected tho personal appearance of Mr. Morgan who did not re semble any person present. Mr. Harvey—Was the conduct of Morgan on that occasion such as to deserve the ep . thet of " beastly ?" • Metropolitan policeman— Certainly, it was. The language he used was such as I should not like to re- , peat here. After a very full investigation, Mr. Harvey addressed Mr. O'Brien. He regretted I exceedingly the occurrence which had taken place. i With respect to Brand, it appeared to him that that officer in mentioning to Burroughes that Mr. O'Brien bad been at Worship-street office, spoke his real opinion; ' strange and extraordinary as the delusion was, and that he spoke it too in the confidential manner in which policemen were in the habit of communicating with each other. and without meaning that it should be re peated. It was, howem, the duty of Brand the mo ment he found that he was mistaken, to offer every re paration is hie cower by apology to the gentleman who had been insulted. The witness called by Brand rendered him no assistance whatever. On the contrary, he said that Morgan resembled nobody in the room, and thus put out of the question the argument as to identity. Still he (Mr. Harvey) did not consider that Brand acted under anything worse than an erroneous impulse, and ho dared say that Mr. O'Brien would be satisfied if that policeman begged his pardon. Brand hero vary submissively apologised to Mr. O'Brien. Mr. Harvey said, with respect to Burroughes, it lies entirely with you Mr. O'Brien, whether be remains with the fore* a day longer. I will feel it to be my duty, if you require it, to discharge him immediately. But I think it necessary to state that he stands well in our reports, and that a dismissal from the police is a very serious bar to a man's procuring a situation of any other kind. That we have good reason for kneeing. Nothing can justify such conduct as these gentlemen have described. Mr. O'Brien said he forgave the man for tie offence personally to himself, but he considered himself bound to add his . solemn declaration that such a person was not fit to be in the City police force. Mr. Harvey then told Burroughes that he had to thank Mr. O'Brien that be was not at once deprived of his situation, and that if ever there should be proved against him any charge, however alight, he should from that moment leave the force for ever. Mr. O'Brien said that Burroughes had refused at the station-house to let him have a bit cf paper upon which to communicate to his family where he was confined. Butroughes, who bad appealed for mercy in the name of his wile and children to Mr. O'Brien, then made the most humble request for forgiveness, and having obtained it from that gentleman's humanity, retirel along with Brand, who was also advised to exercise great caution in the public discharge of his duties. MARLBORO UG H-STREET. Yesterday Miss Sandford, who represented herself as a teacher of the guitar, livin; in Little Puhoney-street, appeared before Mr Hardwick to sustain a charge of assault which she had previously preferred against Mr. and Mrs. Hunt, of Allington — Strect, Pimlico. The circumstances out of which the present charge arose ere rather singular. In, 'the police reports a few weeks back appeared a case under Ahe head " Marl borough-street Police office," in which Mr. Hardwick inflicted a fine of 51. upon a Mr. Laverty for an alleged indecent assault at night, in Regent street, upon Mrs. Hunt, who then represented herself as a married woman, and that she was, at the time when Laverty came up to her, waiting for her hush,:nd is the street, and that they lived in private life, upon an in come of 2001. per annum, arising out of property in the Went Indies. Believing her statement, which, however, was contradicted most vehemently by Mr. Laverty, Mr. Hardwick, as already stated, inflicted the full penalty. A few days after this, Miss Sandford came to this office, and stated that she had been most grossly insulted in the street by Mr. and Mrs. Hur.t, in consequence, as she pre— sumed, of her being an intimate acquaintance of Mr. Laverty. The offensiee conduct having been repeated by Mr. Hunt, who shook his fist in her face, asking her at the same time how " her fellow" liked his birth, and telling her that a trap was laid for her, he applied a most offensive epithet to her. Mr. Hardwick, who had pre viously mentianed that from facts which had recently come to his knowledge his opinion of the truth of the charge against Mr. Laverty had been materially shaken, immediately granted A summons against Mr. and Mrs. Hunt for the assault. _ • In the course of the examination yesterday Mr. Laverty repeated that the charge made against bim by Mr , . Hunt was entirely without foundation ; he had never either spoken to Mrs. Hunt or touched her. When he was suddenly charged by Hunt with haring insulted his wife he was for the moment quite staggered at the extraordinary nature of - the accusation. He did not, however, care so much about the pecuniary loss he had sustained as that he was anxious to clear his character in the eyes of his friends. -lie added, that as he was walking, a few night 4 afterwarols in Piccadilly with a young friend he saw Mrs.--r Hunt, whom he immediately pointed out to his friend as the person who had traduced his character. That friend was now in Court. A young man, named Askell, said that on Mrs. Hunt being pointed out to him he left his friend, and Mrs. Hunt came up to him and solicited him to accompany her to a house in Shepherd-street. The charges of assault against Mr. and Mrs. Hunt were then gone into. Mr. Flower attended for the complainant, and Mr. Wontner for the defendants. The complainant repeated the nature of the assault, which was trifling in itself, but, as already stated, ac companied by threatening and offensive language. Mr. Wontner cross-examined the different witnesses at some length, but did not shake their testimony. In defence, it was contended that Mr. and Mrs. Hunt knew nothing of the complainant ' • that it was, there fore, very unlikely that they should single her out as the acquaintance of Mr. Laverty ; and, further, that they were both at Hampstead at the time the assault was alleged to have been committed. Mr. Wontner did not call any witnesses to prove these assertions. Mr. llinnwicK said, that when the charge was pre ferred against Mr. Laverty by the defendant it had been met by him with a most strenuous denial of its truth, and the present charge was met in a similar manner. It was quite clear that there was gross : perjury on one side or the other, but ther2 was j so much mystification in the affair that it was utterly impossible to say on which. He was, however, bound to say; that had ho been aware at the time the charge was brought against Mr. Laverty, by the present defendant of certain circumstances which had subz:equently come to his knowledge they would have materially operated ontttmp opinion which he had then formed. In the present case, :wile assault was trivial,he should fine the male prisanori4Os. and costs, and discharge the female. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT Or• BANKRUPTCY, Oct. 22.

THE POOR MAN'S CHURCH. (From the Wilshire Independent.) On Monday, the 4th instant, a labouring man, named Ralph Weston, a parishioner of Marden, in this county, was killed by the wheels of a waggon passing over him. A grave was dug in Marden churchyard, and • every preparation made for the funeral, which was appointed to take place on the following Friday. The Curate, the Rev. D. Parsons, attended, and, to the surprise of all present, peremptorily refused to suffer the corpse to be carried into the church. The afflicted widow entreated him to admit the body into the holy edifice, her friends supplicated him to con sent, but ie vain ; the door of the " Poor Man's Church " was closed against the unoffunding corpse of the " poor man," his sorrowing relatives were forbidden to enter, and were contumeliously pointed to the yard, where, and where alone, this Christian teacher would condescend to perform the service, denying to them that part of it which they have been taught to look upon as being the mast important, and essentially necessary to constitute Christian burial ! The people, indignant at this cruel conduct, refused to carry the corpse to the grave, and returned horn. with it. On the Sunday morning they took it again to the churchyard, again they were attended by the Curate, and again they wore refused admit tance into the church. Tho Curate attempted to read the service in the yard, but his pa rishioners would not listen to him ; a scene of confusion ensued ; with all haste they lowered the coffin to its resting place, filled in the earth as quickly as possible, and showed the sense they entertained of his conduct by groaning at him and hooting him. On that day the church was deserted, not more than four or five per sons choosing to attend the service, and such is the im pression the conduct of this successor of the Apostles has had on his parishioners, that a petition, praying for his removal from his cure, has been drawn up, and has re ceived the signatures of nearly all of them. But what could be the Rev. Gentleman's reasons for this extraordinary conduct—for doing that which has thus roused the indignation of his flock ? He shall an swer for himself, for he has thought it necessary to publish a defence of his proceedings. Hero it is : " TO THE PARISHIONERS OF MAIDEN. " MY DEAR PARISHIONEES—I now think it right, for your sakes, and for my own, to inform you of the reasons for which I refused to allow the body of Ralph Weston to be taken into church. " When I went to speak to Ralph Weston on Sunday, August Bth last, about other things, he then in the pre sence of one or of two persons declared, that he would leave off coming to church—that he thought neither church nor parson necessary for a man's salvation— openly defended and praised the Ranters who infest and disturb our parish on Sundays—and avowed himself to be a swearer habitually, and living an evil life—and on the whole rejected the Church utterly. And he, most unhappily for himself, lived Up to his words. He con stantly frequented the Ranters' meetings, in defiance of my private warnin gs an d p u bli c preaching, and of the order of the'Church. " On Monday evening, October 4th, I was told of his fatal accident. I immediately said that I would ride up to the Plain to see him if there were any hope of life not being extinct. But I was assured that he had died in stantly ; which was true. " So that he died without ever having repented in words to me, or that I know to any one else, of his wicked language, purposes, and life. " Thereture 1 resolved (and I am sure that I resolved on good grounds, such as yourselves may see are good) to mark what the Church thinks of lives so contrary to the Gospel, by refusing his body the privilege of being carried into that church, from which while alive he had cut himself off. How great a grief and trouble this sad event has been to me, all who know me well, know. That God may have mercy on his soul can be desired by • none so earusstly as by " Your affectionate faithful clergyman and friend, ,' "D. A. PARSOIS, Curate of garden. IV RE/ JOSEPH LITTLEFOJID.

SURREY QUARTER SESSIONS. KINGSTON, OCT. 22. At the sitting of the Court, the Deputy Cierk of the Peace informed the Chairman, that he bad received a communication from Mr. Chadwick, the Secretary to the Poor-law Commissioners, in reference to the Re port of the Rev. Mr. Beason, the chaplain of the county gaol, which appeared in this Journal on Wednesday. It will be remembered that the Chaplain in his annual Report, alluded to a variety of circumstances connected with the pr:soners that had been under his charge, and also to tie causes that had induced many .ff,•ne es i n of them t o commit the offences with which the y were c - "%ed, and he stated that he bad reason to believe that in sa me o f t h e cases t h e y were driven to commit conseqtrtnce of the refusal of some of the Poor-law o ffi cers to great them relief. The object of the present app lication was that the Commissioners m ight - be furnished with a copy of the whole R e p or t o f the Chaplain i n or d er th a t inquiries might be made in ref erence alluded to. h t t t to t o emenabove a After some • convertot ion the Court declined to ac cede to the request, an d' s aid 1 that the proper course to obtain a copy of the document would be to apply for it to the Secretary of State.
