MORNING EDI rioN JOURNALS SPIRIT of th (From the Globe.) The Canterbury and Walsall elections have resulted in the defeat of the Liberal candidates. We will not affect .inditTerence when we feel regret. We do sincerely regret the issue ; although, with a knowledge of the powerful influences brought to bear against the Liberal aundidate at Canterbury, and of the unfavourable circumstances under which the Liberal candidate at Walsall was introduced to the field, we a-e not disap pointed. At Canterbury the Liberals Ia 1 to contend with everything which is acitagonistical to the principles they profess. The immense power of the hierarchy, in its chief seat of power, is in constant active operation, to crush whoever and whatever is opposed to its demi. nation. Its mighty power, derived from its immense wealth, is exercised in all the modes and through all the channels by which it is capable of acting—especially in the way of intimidation to the Liberal, and of re ward to his Tory rival in trade. The tradesmen who are guilty of the unpardonable sin of voting for a candidate other than the one on whom the Church has pronounced its benediction, and for whose success its energies are employed, are marked as contumacious : their shops are shunned by the wives and daughters of the dignitaries of the Cathedral, from those of the Dean and Prebends, rejoicing in the reception of their annual thousands, down to those of the Minor Canons and Six Preachers, fatted to subsist on as many hundreds. 'mous the whole of the immense wealth and influence derived from the enormous Cathedral establishment of Canterbury is consecrated to the cause of bigotry. The interval between trio election contest and the next is spent in judiciously dispensing " favours" among the tradesmen who " voted as they ought," and dismissing, with expressive intimations of the reason which has led to the withdrawal of custom, those who have refused to profit by the surrender of principle. When the number, rank, and wealth of the Cathedral clergy are taken into the account—the station they occupy in what is called " good society"—the deference paid to their opinions and wishes in the circles in which they and their families move—a deference inspired by their functions in some, and by their wealth and fashion in more—it will easily be seen the fearful extent to which such a body, wielding such an influence over their equals, and communicating to their wishes the rem's of law upon the multitude of their immediate dependents, must have upon the retail tradesmen of the town in which they are residents. • (From the Standard.) There was evidence of concert between Mr. O'Connell and the Ministers at the very threshold of last night's de bate upon Lord Stanley's Bill, al:bough the latter were, by the necessity of their position, compelled to vote against their master's motion. Ministers, hoe ever, were, by their own acts, precluded from dividing with their tyrant, either upon his first propositio n to refuse leave to bring in the Bill, or upon his modified suggestion to postpone the de bate : that is, to postpone the leave to bring in the Bill until it lA . gilt slit Lord Morpeth's convenience and f s e pleaau - e of the House that another Bill should be presented. They (the Ministers)had themselves brought in /brew bills upon the sane su bj ect, thus affirming, i n t h e most unequivocal manner, that it was a proper sub ject for legislation : indeed, their promise of a fourth Bid was another affirmati in to the same purpose. They, therefore, could not deny that it was proper to bring in a Registration Bill, and any objection they could offer must be personal to Lord Stanley, or founded upon a claim of the exclusive initiative by the Executive. Personal objection, however, cannot be recognised by the law of any impartial deliberative body, and the Parlia montary Constitution refuses to the Crown any exclu sive initiative, except in particular cases—such as grants of public money, or laws differently affecting the Sove reign and the Royal Family. This much may be fit to explain the turn taken in point of form by the de bate, and to explain also why Lords John Russell and Morpcth dared to vote against Mr. O'Connell and his immediate party. The Ministers were, in fact, compelled to vote as they did vote, by their own proceedings, and by the law of Parliament ; but they gave sufficient proof that they did not oppose Mr. O'Connell without pain and reluctance. The debate was on the whole temperate, as must generally happen when men h ave exhausted all their arguments and pas sions upon a thrice winnowed question. (From the Courier.) The two elections of Canterbury and Walsall have terminated as every good citize n and honest man would desire. The triumph of the Hon. Mr. Smythe in the former ancient city was the more signal, as the extent o we f sp of , as accepted his inajor;fy took his warmest frien ds o n t h e have reason to know, by surprise. It may be as satisfactory eiidence of the extraotoliniry impression produced on the minds of the elector s , even on ncces. sarily so short an acquaintance, by the eloqinnt ad dresses and upright demeanour of that high-minile.l and accomplished gentleman. On brit fly acknowlrdeing his obligations to his supporters, after the final declaration of the poll, he refrained with becoming taste and dig nity of character from any strained and vaunting pro fessions of future conduct and future performance of duties contracted towards them and the country. " Again," he concluded, " he thanked them, and be fore long he hoped to have an opportunity of showing by his conduct as their representative in the Commons HwHe. Qf Parliament, how much he felt the obligations they had conferred upon him while he was merely the ao'izitor of their suffrages."—((;heers.) Sure we are that he will be found to fulfil every promise of future excellence and eminence which the friends who have longest kooffp have most largely conceived of him, and j ~~ FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. (From the Morning Post.) We have learned, with much concern and some indigna tion, that a British steam-ship and her cr ew are d etaine d at Havre by the French authorities, under the pretext of some possible right of civil damage against the owners of the ship. The circumstances are these :—Some time ago a steam ship belonging to the port of Havre, called the Phenix, came into collision, a short distance from the English coast, with a steam-ship belonging to the General Steam Navigation Company, called the Bri tannia. The Fi each vessel sank, and the English vest sel was much injured. Subsequently the owners of the French vessel brought an sew n fcr damages against the British owners in the local Court of Havre. The cue has been hard, but the decision has not yet been given. In the meantime the General Steam Naviga tion Company placed another vessel, the James Watt, upon the line. By virtue of some French process of law this vessel was seized in the port of Havre as a se curity for what:damage might be awarded against the Com pany. The Company's agent appealed, and the Judge decided that no damage being then substantiated, no pro perty could be detained. The vessel was, therefore, re leased. She came to England, and returned to Havre. She was then seized again by an order from another Court. Against this also an appeal was made; but the Judge in the second case confirmed the detention, and refused the appeal with costs. The consequence is, that not only is the property of British subjects detained upon the sup. posed possibility of damage being awarded by a local tri bunal of France against the owners of that property, but the persons of a considerable number of British sub jects are detained, against whom it is impossible there can be any claim or complaint, fur they are a totally difTereut crew from that which was on board the Britannia when she came in collision with the Phenix. We look upon this as a monstrous wrong, redress of which should be immediately de m anded by the British Government. We have stated the circumstances with careful abstinence from exaggeration of any kind. We believe a representa tion of ti a circumstances has been made to Government, but we have not yet he ird of any . such step havin g b een taken as a Government jealous of the liberty of its sub ought to take. Unless redress be speedily aff)rded, we salppose this affair will be brought under the consideration of the Ilouse of Commons. (From the Morning Herald.) In discussing the copy-right question last Friday, Mr. Warburton broached a principle, which a Government " sensible of the importance of economy " would find very convenient when pushed to make " adequate provision for the exigencies of the public service." Some American Sam Slick, it seems, had been guilty of the outlandish notion that " whatever a man produces by his own hands and his own mind, is, by a natural right his, and his only.' " Nonsens , !" says Mr. Warburton. He did not acknow ledge such a thing as natural ri; hts. H did not Ile knowleeg? the Wet Tyler doctrine that what a man pro duces is his own and hie own only. The question was, what portion of a man's labour he ought to retain, and w hat portion s'iould be appropriated to the public good In every case the disposal must be governed by erpedieney." Mr. Warburton does Vat Tyler and Jack Cade gross injustice. Whatever ignorant impetiorea gentlemen of their kidney may have shown of taxation when applied to themselves, they were ss mu h alive to the expediency of appropriating the fruit of other men's labour as the best Liberal of the present day. The only difference between Jack and Mr. Warburton iv, that Mr. Warburton is, that Mr. Warburton would starve the clerk of Chatham for the public good, whereas Jack thought the public good best consulted by hang ing him with his ink-horn about his neck. But ho..‘ would Mr. Warburton like the mutate 'tontine, de to part of the story ? or, in more homely phrase, how would he like the goose to be served with the same sauce as the gander? The question, he says, is, what portion of a man's labour ought to be retained by himsrlt, and shat portion should be appropriated to what Minis - ers call the " exigencies" of the public. He cannot mean that the exaction should be enforced only upon authors; for, if the value of a thing is just what it will bring, his doctrine would be far more valuably applied to Baltic merchants than to booksellers' fags. What pertion of the fruits of his labour will be consent to being appro priated ? As Colman's timber merchant answcre 1, when asked how much he would give to relieve the poor match makers, " Certainly not a great deal." Mr. Warburton, by all accounts, has made a large fortune (the larger the more credit to him), by knowing bow to supply the mar ket with Norway oak. What would be his opinion if Mr. Baring was to say, " My dear Sir, you have no natura4 ..right to what your cleverness in the tieubt rerade has ac quired; that sort of Brat Tyler nonsense won't do for me ; the only question with me is, how much of your gains I should allow you to retain, and how much I should appro priate to the public." It is understood that Mr. Baring means to propose something novel to provide for his " exi gencies," as :he public will not stand another per-centage upon the old taxes and duties. For the fan of the thing let him but a hisper a tax upon timber_merchants and authors, and it is Epping Forest to a walking-stick that Mr. Warburton will find out that authors have natural sights after all, • we join heartily in the well-deserved compliment of congratulationot Mr. Partridge,the Chairman oftheCan terbury Conservative Club, who " congratulated the members and their friends on the result of their labours, and observed that they were sufficiently paid in having secured the return of a gentle. man of so much talent and such high character as the Hon. Mr. Smythe." If the result achieved at Walsall were, as far as the exhibition of numbers, less conspicuous, it must not be forgotten that the elements to be battled with were more fierce, compact, unscrupu lous, and desperate. At Canterbury Mr. Smythe had the Treabury for chief, if not only opponent, and all those cor rupt appliances at its command, which none better know how to dispense thin the dapper triaster who acts as Treasury fag; the task of the now Honourable Member was arduous, but the foe was an unit. At Walsall the case was different and more difficult, as Mr. Gladstone could not fail to comprehend when he braced his sinews to the strife. For here not only was the whole strength of Government influence arrayed against him, but the prejudices and passions of Dissent in behalf of the saner-kraut-faced Puritan opposed to him, the No-Corn law furies of a brutal and ignorant populace, and the long purse of that offspring of fraud and sedition, the Anti-Corn-law League. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS (TUISDAY EVENING.) TIMES.--An increased firmness was given to the Funds this morning by the ems of the final settlement cf the Eastern question, but it produced no advance of the least moment, and even the character of firmness which the market at first assumed was not wholly maintained throughout the day. It is thus evident that other causes than those connected with politics keep back the public generally from any large investments in stock. Very bigh prices of the Funds, such as prevailed a few years back, are not to be looked for while money finds employ ment so much more beneficially out of doors, but they would probably rise somewhat above their present level were it not for the prevalent expectation that the Govern ment must borrew largely in the course of the present Ses sion, and consequently that additional stock must be created, which capitalists may hope in that case to obtain on better terms than the existing market prices. As much money is kept in reserve for such a contingency, more probably than the actual wantsof the State will find employment for, there must occur some improvement in the Funds on the mere contingency of the demand either falling short of the pub lic expectation or of a resort to other modes of providing for the ways and means than by a direct creation of stock. This uncertainty in the Money Market is of less impor• tance, perhaps, than on many other occasions of the same kind, but, so far as it gees, it is an evil and an impediment :o public business, and it were very much to be desired hat all Chancellors of the Exchequer should be prepared, at the very commencement of each Session, to put in a sort of exhibit of the public accounts, with information of tl.e situation of the Treasury, the probable wants of the year, and the mode of supplying those wants. In this there could be no difficulty if due preparation were made for it, and it would at once check speculation and give that smooth course to monetary affairs which is so desirable, above all others, in commercial communities like ours. On the first announcement of the arrangement of affairs in the E. st, the pikes of Consols rallied, but money being wanted in the Market, and the dealers not having got rid of the stock which they bought a little while back, they receded to their old position. HORTICULTURAL NOTICE FOR FEBRUARY. January has passed away, leaving almost everything to be done ; yet no time is los►, for this season of torpor will be found the pioneer of activity. As we anticipated, the severity of frost abated after the middle of the month ; yet the ground remained covered with snow. This vanished with inconceivable rapidity, and saturated the soil, which has since been—as a general thing —too wet to be worked with good effect. The month of January has been most seasonable _ . has exhibited all the characteristics of an English winter, in complete perfection ; and two important facts have been established—First, that a six-inch stratum of snow is an efficient protector, as is proved by a comparison between the sca,ons of 1833 and 1841. la the former, the Bras. sica.s were ruined—few persons retaining fig e plants of a hundred alive ; the frost was intense, but there was no snow ; whereas, though many persons have recently wit nessed and recorded 25 to 30 degrees below freezing, no injury appears now to have been sustained. The other fact of moment is this:—The greatest rigour of cold seems to have cecurred within 100 mi!es of the metropolis, east and south, Scotland and the north-western counties having enjoyed, comparatively, warm weather. Everywhere within the last week the ground has been nearly open, but it remains wet, and the rain of the 30:h did not improve it. However, we may safely direct to seize the first opportunity to Sow early peas, long-pod beans, horn -carrot, a sprink ling of lettuce, radish, and all salad-seeds. At and after the middle of the month, cabbage, savoy, 13 russels-sprout seeds, a small quantity of onion, leek, parsnip, and beet root. Plant out in succession spring cabbage from the seed bed ; earliest potatoes into a warm border, five inches deep ; the ground to be covered with litter, and manure over the sets. Dig the ground between rows of plants, of cabbage, brocoli, bereccAc, artichokes, yet keep a little fern, or other stuff, near the last, which in the event of brisk frost may be drawn close around the plan's. In clearing or digging the garden plots, choose the best weather, for the temperament of the ground is of great consequence, much mischief resulting from the disturbance of it when saturated with wet ; this was seen in the rainy season of 1840, crop after crop failing from damp, and the land being a swamp till after mid-February. FRUIT DEPARTMENT. Prune the berry.bcaring shrubs.—Currants are to be close spurred, and the lea , :ing shorts cut back to a f, vs buds—the weakest to be the shortest. Gooseberries may also be spurred, and will produce abundance of berries; but the finest fruit is ost7ined From regularly distributed last'year's shoots. Raspberries should not abound with weak sheots; four or five strong canes, each shortened to a bud, where the shoot usually assumes a curve, are amply sufTitient. After pruning, dust the bushes ideated with moss or lichens (by means of a dredger) with powdered lime, and a small proportion of soot. Prune close to the good spurs, espalier, wall and dwarf apple, pear, plum, and cherry trees; but defer the regula tion of the peach, nectarine, and apricot till the end of the' month. ORNAMENTAL DEPARTMENTS. CONSERVATORY.—A Correspondent addressed us too late to permit a notice of his queries. This erection im plies, properly, a lofty glazed house, large in every dimen sion, and furnished with a bed of compost soil, two feet deep or more, over a thorough drainage stratum, wherein large plants of the New Holland families—acacias, camel lia 3, Sec.—are planted without pots. Well prepared, and ably managed, a good conservatory is a very beautiful thing. It is geserally, however, conducted on mixed prin ciples ; being partly little more than a greenhouse. As to ternpernture, air, end water, the plants being generally hard-wooded, will require seldom more than 35 degrees during the dark months. Air is always admitted in dry mild weather; and the ample bed of earth provides a store of durable moisture, which will seldom require increase till growth takes [lace. The Greenhouse soft-wooded plants, wherever deposited, demand more care and atten tion than those of a firmer texture. FIRE is but a poor ad junct. Could screening by covers, rollers, and boards be conveniently applied, persons would soon perceive that, even in total darkness during frost, plants would remain more safe, healthy, and verdant, than when stimulated, or dried up, by fire. All the forcing houses should be excited more and more as sun-light increases; never, however, in the carlisat vinery aiming at more than 70 degrees by fire —say rather I 63 degrees to 70 degrees. (OLD COURT.) Before Mr. Justice WIL L IAMSe and Mr. Justice COLTMAN. The Court was occupied during the morning with a charge of counterfeiting coin, against James Taylor. The Solicitor for the Mint had received information against the prisoner from a companion of his ; but it ap peared very questionable from the evidence given whether the informer had not himself prepared the facts stated against the other party. After the evidence had been gone through, the Counsel for the prosecution withdrew the charge. ALLEGED FRAUDS UPON INSURANCE COMPANIES. THE CASE OF THE DRYAD. Michael Shaw Stewart IVallace and Patrick Max well Stuart Wallace, the individuals charged with de frauding insurance companies, under the circumstances that have recently been laid before the public, were placed at the bar this morning. When the case was cailed on, the Attorney-General, who with Messrs. Clarkson, Bodkin, and Laurie, was instructed on behalf of the prosecution, addressed the Court, and applied for a postponement of the trial. The ATTORNEY GENERAL said he was glad that a Noble Lord now formed part of the Court who had heard some of the former arguments in this case. It would be remembered that at. that time a question arose as to the validity of the remand of the prisoners by the Magistrate before whom they were taken, but subse qeently they were committed for trial. The charge against the prisoners was that they had been accessory to the casting away and destroying a vessel called the Dryad, insured from Liverpool to Santa Cruz for the sum of 10,0001. There was abundant proof of the policy being effected, and that no goods were on board the ship, and also that an attempt was made to cast her away; but the difficulty they had to contend with was that there was no proof of the actual loss of the vessel, a witness who could prove that fact being abroad. It would be unsafe to proceed with the trial in the ab sence of that person, anal be therefore bed to apply for a postponement of the trial till next session, by which time there was every reason to believe that the witness would be in England. The Learned Gentle man then read the affidavits of Mr. James Philips, the solicitor for the prosecution ; and Mr. E. S. Phillips, the secretary to the Maritime Insurance Saciety, in sup port of his statement ; and also a statement of the wife of the man referred to, that she had heard him say that the Dryad was cast away and destroyed. Tee Learned Gentleman, after some further remarks con nected with the facts of the case, moved the Court to postpone the trial. Mr. PHILLIPS, who appeared for the defence, was understood to say that he had no objection to offer to the course proposed by the Attorney-General. Tho ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that, as this was the case, the only question that remained was as to the propriety of 'admitting the prisoners to bail. He should most decidedly oppose such a course, for he feared that if the prisoners were set at large, they would abscond, and the ends of justice be defeated. One of the prisoners had already absconded from the charge, and ab indoned his house and family, and he was traced to the sea-side ; and there was every reason to believe that he intended to leave the country. He therefore hoped, that, under all the circumstances, the Court would not accept bail. Some conversation here took place between the Learned Counsel, and Mr. Phillips said that as the pro secutors had agreed to the proposition he had made to refund the prisoners a portion of the money found in their possession, he should not press his motion for bail. The ATTORNEY•GENERA L said he thought it quite eight that the prisoners should be afforded the means of defending themselves, and he saw no objection to a sufficieat sum being given them for that purpose. Mr. PHILLIPS said it must be understood that be only consented to a postponement till the next Session. The ATTORNEY-GENER AL said that was all he re quired, and the prisoners were then removed. Robert Langston, aged 19, John Edwards, aged 18, and Edward Hopkins, aged 22, were indicted for felo niously assaulting and wounding James Michael Wood, with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. In another count the intent was laid to be to resist the lawful apprehension of the prisoner E !wards upon a charge of felony. Mr. Phillips appeared for Hopkins. The prosecutor, who had his head bandaged,and who appeared to be very weak and ill, deposed, that on the 20th January he was passing down Duke-street,Water loo-road, where he saw Edwards, who had a bundle under his arm, and another man with him, come out of the house of a pereon named White. Ho suspected something was wrong, and he followed the parties, and stopped them and asked them to go back with Ifm to Mrs. White's, aad they did so, and when he got there, he found that she had been robbed of a cloak, and he advised her to send for an officer, and just as he said the words, a number of persons, among whom were the prisoners Langston and Hopkins, rushed into the house, and Langston struck him a violent blow on the head viith some instrument which cut completely through his hat, and inflicted a severe wound on his head. Witness held Edwards, and a struggle ensued, and he was dragged into the street, and again kicked andnear the beaten. It t It appeared by t h e test i mony of other witness es t h at a number of picklock keys were found and alga a " life preserver," with which the injury had been inflicted. The prisoner Langston was the only one identified as having struck the prose cutor. The Jury found Langston guilty,:and acquitted the other prisoner s .

Michael Shaughnessy, aged 23, and John Shaugb nessy, 30, were indicted for feloniously cutting and woundin g George Mayhew, with i ntent to do him some grievous bodily harm. Messrs. Phillips and Ballantine appeared for the prisoners. - It appeared from the evidence, that on the 2d of January the prosecutor was walking in the City-road, when ha met the prisoners, who were total strangers to him, and one of them exclaimed, " Here comes a - Englishman," and John Shaughnessy knocked I 'uirs down, and Michitel commenced kicking bial on the WOOL W ICH-T UESDAY.

URIOUS STORY. —The Lord Bron, Ameri can trading vessel, from New Orleans, laden with cotton reached this port on Th urs d ay last, fifty four days out. A; this was thirteen days later than other vessels which sailed at the same time, some anxiety was expressed to know the cause, when the following singular particulars tran _lt appears that the Byron kft New O r l eans with spired : a fair wind, and studding sails set, and had been out at sea two days, when it was discovtrad that the steward, a man of colour, had stowed away in a berth below, where cotton had been deposited, an angelic-looking mulatto girl about eighteen years of age, thinking to m a k e h er his own in good earnest when she reached the land o f lib erty. The captain, thus awkwardly situated, and kona7cat in rn gt i h ve e penalty f 2 r th us b r i ng i n g aw ay a slave, had no but to put "ship about ; " and he accordingly did so, and caused the love-stricken maid, ts ith tears in her eyes for Sambo, to be re-landed by a brig at the expense of two sovereigns ; and thus had love's fetters been broken, and the voyage prolonged. What reparation Sambo is to make we have not heard.—Liverpool ,Journal. ABOYNE ENTAIL—The case in the Court of Session, at the instance of the trustee for L' , rd liuntly's creditors, against the Earl of Aboyne, for reduction of the entail by which the Marquis holds the Aboync estates, has, we hear, been before Lord Jeffrey, and taken by him to report to the Inner-house ; but with a long note con taining the Lord Ordinary's own cpinion in fe , vour of the sufficiency of the entail.

(Sittings at Nisi Prins, before Mr. Justice COLE RIDGE and a Middlesex Jury.) STEVENSON V. DONELLY. In this case the plaintiff, who sued in forma pan penis, brought the action against the defendant, to re• cover damages for false imprisonment. It appeared that during the spring of last year, the plaintiff was living with the defendant, Captain Donelly, son of the late Admiral Ross Donelly, as coachman. The Captain resided in Harley -street, in the house of his father, whose guardian he had been appointed, under a Commission of Lunacy. Miss Donelly, the defendant's sister, resided with him, and previous to the defendant's marriage, bad had the management of the house. Captain Donclly had, however, married, and subsequently to his marriage differences bad taken place between himself and his sister, who, how ever, continued to reside at the house in Harley street. On the night in question Miss Donelly had gone to the Opera, and during her absence Captain Donelly bad gone down into the kitchen, and repri manded the servants for making a noise. Shortly afterwards Miss Donelly returned, and, on ringing at the bell, the door was opened by the defendant, and slammed in her face. The servants, however, immedi ately afterwards let her in by opening the door of the arca. It appeared that in passing to her room she would have to pass the door of the room occupied by defendant ; and fearing that he might rush out upon her, she re quested the servants to see her safely past his door. They did so ; plaintiff, whose sleeping place was in the stable, accompanying them, he had previously been up stairs on a message for one of the servants, but had been ordered down by Captain Donelly. After they were all in bed, Captain and Mrs. Donelly got up and left the house, and shortly alter return ed, accompanied by the police ; being unable to obtain admittance by the street door, they went round to the stable door, of which the Captain had the key, and, calling the plain tiff out of his hed, he gave him in charge to the police for creating a disturbance in the house, and using abusive language, at the same time giving another servant, named Shepherd, into custody on the same charge, and also on a charge of asse.ult. In the morning, Shep herd, who had been going up stairs with a pistol, and who said there were thieves in the house, was fined by the Mki,trate, and the case against the plaintiff was dismissed. Mr. TIIESIGER having addressed the jury for the plaintiff, called various witnesses to prove his case. Mr. CROWDER, for the defendant, admitted that the verdict must go against him ; but contended that it was a case for merely nominal damages. ' Mr. Justice COLERIDGE, in summing up, said that he considered it a case certainly calling for more than nominal damages. It was a gross abuse of the criminal law for a master to give a servant in custody of the police, on such a charge as creating a disturbance, and making use of abusive language. If a servant were im pertinent, his master should turn him out of his house —not give him in charge of the police ; for the tact of a man having been before a Magistrate told against him afterwards. It was frequently said of a servant, " Oh, he has been before a Magistrate ;" and this ob servation alone, without any knowledge of the circum• sta-e.s, was calculated to inflict injury on a person in the plaintiff's station. The Jury, however, were not to suffer their feelings to carry them away, but•were to give such temperate damages as would be a sufficient compensation to the plaintiff, and place him in the si tuation he was in before this occurrence took place. The Jury, on their return into Court, found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 701. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT, ' head and the left side of his body, and broke two of his ribs. He called " Murder," and John Shaughnessy tol his brother to kick him in the mouth, and Michael im mediately attempted to do so, but his foot fortunately struck against a door-scrape r and the blow was averted. In ad lition to the injuries above stated, the prosecutor had his left eyelid cut open, and was other wise severely injured. The prisoners then ran away, and the prosecutor went after them, and John knocked him down a second time, and they both kicked him while he was on the ground. The prosecutor, it appeared, gave no pro vocation for the outrage that was committed upon him. Several witnesses were examined, who corroborated the prosecutor's statement, and a medical gentleman described his injuries to have been very severe, and it appeared that he had been three weeks in the hospital in consequence. • The prisoners received a good character. The Jury found them guilty, but with a recommenda tion to mercy on account of their good character, The prisoners were again indicted for a similar offence upon J)seph Peet, the constable, who had assisted in their apprehension, and they were found guilty of a common assault, The GouaT sentenced the prisoners to be kept to hard labour for two years. Toe Recorder sat in the evening, but the cases dis posed of were of no public interest. (NEW COURT) (Before the COMMON SRRGEAN r.) Abraham Moser, a Jew, was indicted for stealing a bas ket containing some linen, the property of Wm. Troude. Policeman 117 of the K division, saw the prisoner at seven o'clock in the morning, following a car on the Mile end-road, from which he took something, and then ran away. The policeman followed the car, and found that is parcel was missing. lie afterwards apprehended the pri soner, and though ho found none of the property in his possession, it was proved that he had disposed of a por. tion of it. The Jury found the prisoner guilty. It nppeared from his previous character that he lived by theft. He was sentenced to seven years' transportation. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. A young man named Henry Bell, of very respectable appearance, was brought. before Mr. Alderman Johnson for re-examination on a charge of forgery. It appeared in evidence given at the former investi gation, that the prisoner attached the signature of Mr. Harding, a hair-dresser and perfumer, carrying on busi ness in Dean-street, Soho-square, to a draft for 10/., and was shortly afterwards given into custody at his place of business in the City. Upon being brought before the sitting Alderman, the evidence not being deemed sufficiently conclusive against the prisoner, he was further remanded to yesterday. Upon being again placed at the bar, a person stating himself to be a clerk in the employment of the solicitor for the prosecution, applied to Mr. Alderman Johnson to discharge the prisoner, the prosecutor, Nlr. Hard ing, having determined to proceed no further in the case, as the prisoner had arranged for the amount of the draft and expenses. Mr. Alderman JOHNSON said there was no proof that the individual making the application was properly authorised by Mr. Harding, and he should therefore re mand the prisoner until that gentleman attended, and if he refused coming forward, a summons might be issued to compel his appearance.

During the whole of the past week the market has presented the saute appearance of dulneas and want of animation that was apparent for two or three weeks previously; the general disinclination to do an exten sive business being, yesterday, somewhat increased by the unfavourable accounts of the condition of the Unitcd States' Bank, ►►Lich have reached this country through the medium of a pasnnger landed at Cork, from the New York packet, Cambridge. 'rho demand both for goods and yarn was very limited, and it was difficult to make sales except at a trifling reduction from the prices of the preceding week. Holders, how ever, were generally firm, and the business done was, consequently trifling. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, FEB. 1. —We have had a moderate demand for flannels to-day, somewhat similar to that of last Monday, but there is no change in prices. The wool market remains steady, with prices firm. We regret to state that, during the past week, a Louse of extensive business in the wool trade, we believe the oldest house in that trade at Rochdale, has stopped payment. The engagements are said to amount to about 70,0004 HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, FEB. 2.—Although the market this day was not quite so animated as last week, yet a respectable amount of business was done in middle and low-priced woollens and light fancy goods, Prices remain firm, with an upward tendency in wools. In the warehouses there is an average business doing ; and orders in hand keep the mills in full employment. THE WEATHER. ROYAL GALLERY OF SCIENCE, ADELAIDE STREET. NooN. FEB 3. Barometer 30 07 Jo.

FOSSIL INFIJSORIA IN THE FLINTS FROM LEN% ES AND BRIGHTON. —lt is now some years since we were first made acquainted with the remains of the colossal reptiles which abound in our sandstone and limestone r Arks in the weald, and the startling and monstrous forms of the originals, depicted by the pencil and described by the pen of our townsman Dr. Mantel'. These l'arrds of an ancient world, many of which must have been 100 feet long, exceeded by far all living creatures of the same family, and their petrified bones might well have given rise to the tradition of there having been once a mighty race of giants who w..re the lords of the soil in ages long past. But these facts are now so wel known that they pass as matters of indisputable credit, and we arc now called upon to receive another class of phenomena, as overpowering from their infinite minuteness, and the inexhaustible fish' of inquiry to which to whin they conduct us. A few years ago, a celebrated Ger man naturalist discovered that whole mountains of stone were composed of the skeletons of beings so minute as to be invisible to the naked eye, but which the microscope revealed to us as of form as elegant, and of organisaticn as won d er f ul, as even t h e largest and most beautiful of ex i st i ng b e i ngs . Th ese researches have been followed u p b y natura li s t s i n our own count try, and among ot h er wonder f u l resu l ts i s t h e astound. ing fact, th at our c h a lk flints are a l most wholly composed of the shells, or more properly shields or cases, of crest; tures which must have lived in the sea in which the liint was deposited. These beings, are of various for ms and referable t o severa l genera, and all are to minute that an individual c anno t b e seen b y the na k e d e)e, an d It would require m any m illi ons to form a mass o f flint equal tb o n e cubic inch I M aster R eg i nal d M an t e l), the young eon o f the author of " The Fossils of the South Downs," who has been assiduously explorieg with his microscope Writs obtained from the chalk pits of this his native place, has discovered that the , tortrltirli(i, (a fossil animal of a globular form, with nume rous tentacula or arms,) abound in almost every atom of flint, and that they are in as beautiful a sate of perfection as the fossil fishes from the same quarries Several of the species found by this )ottnp observer are entirely new, that is, have not been preciously observed a proof how highly interesting are these researchts to the youthful mind, since the most inexperienced May herrorase a discoverer in this new path of Inrelity, appears too, that the fossil t eet h o f t h e shar k and other fishes, so abun dant in our chalk, when cut into thin sections, present the most extraordinary structure under the micrornorri tlir distribution and interlacing of the verse's with the tubes of bone and ivory that compose the tooth differing in the different genera.__ Sussex Advertiser.

From the London New Price Current of February 8 ) SUGAR. —The rates previously established have been 'ully supported for West India Muscovadoes, and the grocers have been anxious to purchase yellow descriptions, especially those with colour, but the short supply has operated against business; of good and fine sorts the market has been cleared each day, and in some cases even rather higher rates have been paid. To-day prices were firmer for British Plantation ; both grocers and refiners were desirous to plircliasc all descrip. tions, but the small and indifferent show operated against buying, still there was a fair huffiness done, and the better sorts of yellow, which arc much wanted by the grocers, brought prices rather above those of Friday, indeed in some ea-Ts the lower sort were sold, towards the. close ef the market, a shade above former rates ; the purchases amounted to 403 birds and trcs, and would have been on a more extended scale if there had been a better assortment. REFINED.—Fur home consumption a large demand has prevailed for Ildiaed goods, and the market has been nearly cleared, some purchases have bsen made fur Liver pool, and prices have advanced since this day week is per ewr, To-d4y Refined Goods were much sought after by the Lome trade; and it is difficult to get Standard Lumps at 955, at that rate large purchases have been made for de livery in a fortnight. Treacle sells more freely at 355. to 42a. The demand was good for Bastards and Pieces, and former rates sat re fully supported. Bonded Crushed Sugar in good request at 32s 6d per cwt. Meeitieres,—Ttes afternoon the public sales were well attended, arid the bidding% were brisk, the total quantity offered amounted :o 6,714 bags, the whole le as disposed of at prices 6sl a is higher for good and fine yellow sorts; brown and other kinds fetched full former rates, and in some cases a'slight advance, fine yellow went at 83s to 851, good 81s to 82s 6d, middling and good middling 77a to 80s, low middling 724 6-.1 to 755, good brown 71s to 71s 6d, mid dling and good middling 59s to 655, low dark 52. to 54s 6J, good strong grey 75s 6d to 78s 6d, fine 798 to 80s Gd per oat. EAST Izenre.—This afternoon the public sales consisted of 1,630 bags Manilla, 362 baskets Java, 4,76 . 5 bags and 281 cases Bengal ; Manilla was all taken in 6d above former rates, viz. good middling brown at 255, washed and shifted 21s to 22s 61, a few lots however were sold at the latter rates. Java was all bought in Gd to is above the market value, good brown and middling grey at 23s 61 to 26 6 I, damps 22a 6.1 to 23s 61, a few lots of the latter were sold at those rates.
