The Work which is now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, which for some unaccountable reason have keen either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the ez dinary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits, would be entirely out of place in an vdvertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation 01 a PA RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN.

Abstract of a letter from Mrs. L. S. Brewer, Dress-maker 3, Edge-terrace, Kensington Gravel Pits. To Mr. Grimstone, Inventor of Eye-Snuff. Doe. 5,1840. Sir, —I have been a sufferer for seven years, both eyes being so swollen as to cause blindness. Among the many Medical Gentlemen who attended me was the famous oculist, Dr. Alexander ; indeed, 1 do believe my case was beyond all their skill. " Physic, Blt.eding, Blistering, with a seton, of all kinds of Lotions, but no relief," till chancing one day, being led by your house in 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, my guide inquired if I had tried your Eye-Snuff, on which I purchased Is. 3d. Canister, opened it in the shop—took some, and was greatly relieved before I reached my home. I can with truth assert, and make oath if required to do so, that it was your Eye- Snuff cured me. Shal be happy to b.nswer any inquiry. I am, Sir, yours gratefully, L. S. BREWER. Observe the Caution.—W. GRIMSTONE is the sole in ventor, and the only genuine is prepared by him. This Odoriferous Herbaceous Compound of Herbs is sold in tanisters, at Bd., Is. 3d., 2s. 4d., 4s. 4d., Bs., and 15s. 6d. each, by the Proprietor, W.

Two or three doses will convince the afflicted of its salutary effects. The stomach will speedily regain its strength; a healthy action of the liver, bowels, and kidneys will rapidly take place; and instead of listlessness, heat, pain, and jaun diced appearance, strength, activity, and renewed health, will be the quick result of taking this Medicine, according to the directions accom panying each box; and if taken after too free an indulgence at table, tney quickly restore the system to is natural state of repose.

HEBIIEW FESTIVAL OF THANKS- GIVING. Yesterday being the anniversary of the Hebrew Festival called " Pureern," in celebration of the relief which Mordecars triumph over Haman procured for the Israelites in their cap tivity, under Ahasuerus, was dedicated by the Jews of Lon don as a day of thanksgiving for the safe return of Sir Moses Montefiore and his lady from their Syrian mission. It was at first intended that the thanks should be offered to the. God of Israel, shnultancowly, in all the synagogues in England, but a Rabbinical law renders it necessary . that the person for whose preservation a solemn service is untamed, shall himself be pre sent, and deposit with his own hand his offering upon the Ark. The synagogue selected upon this occasion was that of the Spanish and Portuguese Jews, in Bevis Marks. The service commenced at three o'clock precisely, when the chapel was filled in every part, and contained about 1,200 of the most respectable members of the Jewish persuasion in London. The galleries were appropriated to ladies, and the female chil dren of the schools in connection w.th the Synagogue. Baron Rothschild, with his brothers and their families, Messrs. Nlo cata, Goldsmid, Da Castro, Samuels, and their ladies, were also present. The high priest, Dr. Herschel, although not officiating, attended as one of the congregation, and, in the course of the service, appeared tojoin with great fervour in the re sponses, when the psalms selected for the day, and appropriate alike to the anniversary and the particular festival of the day, had been chaunted by a choir of thirty, the most accomplished Hebrew vocalists that could be found among the tribe, to whom this portion of the sacred service is prescribed by the ecclesiastical law of the Jew - s. Sir Moses Montefiore, clothed in a surplice of white muslin, as a " sacrificer," and conducted by the Priest, approached the table in front of the Ark, and deposited thereon his offering, which as well as we could calculate from the enumeration of the Priest, amounted to lOW., and the other offerings raised the sum to nearly 900/. As the Priest counted all the sums as they were offered in Hebrew terms, it is difficult for a Reporter poorly versed in the lan guage, to calculate the exact amount. It was announced, however, by the Levite in attendance, that the whole should be distri buted amongst the poor of the several congregations in London. The Rev. Mr. De Sola preached a sermon towards the conclusion of the ceremony, highly eulogizing the conduct of Sir Moses Montefiore and his companions, concluding wish a prayer for the blessing of God upon Queen Victoria and her Consort, and upon.her liberal and enlightened Ministers, to whom the Ilebrewnation was particularly indebted. He prayed also for God's blessing to those Continental Powers who had befriended the Jews of Syria during the Syrian persecutirn, and congratulated his brethren that even the Sultan, who might now be recognized amongst the liberal Sovereigns of Europe, had placed the Jews in his dominions upon an equal footing, as to civil rights, with his other sub jects, and declared the calumnies against them to be " cruel lies." When the Rev. Gentleman concluded that part of his sermon which referred to her Majesty's Ministers, a large part of the congregation expressed very loudly the Hebrew word, which means something like "bravo," s the latter word is used to express the acquiescence of an audience in the sentiments of a speaker. or their approbation of a well executed piece of music. In the latter sense the exclamation was frequently uttered at the conclusion cf the several Psalms. But its literal meaning is strength, or continuance, and it seemed to be that, in that literal interpretation, the word was loudly and fervently uttered by the congregation when God's blessing was invoked upon the Queen's Liberal Ministers. Sir Moses Montefiore (it should have been said) wept pas sionately when the personal services and risks of hims.e.f and his lady were alluded to in the prayers. ADDRESS TO THE WORKING CLASSES OF THE UNITED KINGDOM. NO. 11. " The partition-wall which circumstances had run up between Reformers of the middle and working elmscs is already begun to be pulled doan."—Spectator. BRETHREN,—Permit us to congratulate you upon the high position of your move.nect, and espeliady upon the truth of Vie sei:Vince at'inve quoted. Much I ave ae laboured and Lang have we desired to bring about :ts fell accomplishmet.t. Often Laie we laboured des pairingly ; at times, the suffering, together with the misdirected zeal of the employed, and the deep-seated pride and prejudice of the employer, teemed alarmt Un passable.barriers ; but through Ell a e had a strong fait', in the justice of. our principles and of their ultimat adoption by all who were oppressed. Nor hose we Leen disappointed, for although the an:nds of many of our countrymen of the middle classes we e for a time overwhelmed wits the flood of prejudice and ignorance, we rejoice that the d , huge is rapidly subsiding, and the ark of reason and justice ha; found an Ararat to rest upon. Especially do we feel proud of the wichly different position you now hull from that which, on former occasions of political inter course with the middle classes, you were wont to oc cupy. The dignity of labour bids fair to secure its legi timate place in society, and without opposing wtalth to demand that it shall be placed with it upon a pelitical equality. We are more and more persuaded that the most efficient way to prepare a people for the enlight ened nse of itteiricights is ter engage them in an agita tion to obtain them. Never 1 , a3 maxim been more com pletely verified than in the spirit of calm, yet earnest in quiry, that has pervaded the later stages of the Char tist agitation. Principles of political economy have been discussed by the people whirl', but a fete years ago, were - considered so abstruse, as only to be understood by those whose profession was legislation ; every passing event has been measured by the masses with a scrutinizing, almost with a prophetic eye, and scarcely has a single atom in the vast and designedly complicated machinery of Church and State been left utile:armed and unexplored by the penetrating search of the people's eagle eye. The Chartist press, pulpit, and platform have sent forth thoughts, and implanted hopes, which, like lightnings, are alive in every bosom of the multitude ; no wonder, therefore, that when they appeared on the Leeds hustings they cause possessed of minds, princi pkg., and determinations of their own, they were no longer as they used to be assenting inferiors, or mere pressure-from-without machinery. They asked not of the middle classes leadership, but alliance : Lot supe riority, but co-operation. Their motto was a bold and independent one—" With you if we may; without you if' we must." Brethren, we have cautioned you to be wary of being led by men in your own ranks. We oppose leader ship in Chartism. No wonder, therefore, that we cau tion you to watch well every step you take in political intercourse with the middle classes, whether in your own ranks, or in your intercourse with others. No maxim is more ennobling as well as useful than Think for yourselves." Observe this, and we need not cau tion you against deceivers, for you cannot be deceived To be deceived implies as much intellectual want on your side as moral turpitude on the other ; and the man who tells you that you cannot safely admit to your ranks the middle classes, has either some sinister object in view, or entertains such a low opinion of your moral rectitude and intellectual strength, as to doubt your capability of thinking for yourselves, or of distinguish ing between right and wrong. It is a mistrusting of the intelligence of the people ; and from whatever quar ter it come, or however civilly it be worded, it is an insult, founded on the self same reason whereby the expediency politicians withhold from them their rights, viz. their imputed want of discriminating intel ligence. Brethren, we see no reason to entertain such an opinion of you ; we therefore say, receive all men who admire the principles of your Charter, without distinction of sect or class ; nay, more, we say invite all. singleT ne m n a a n intee w elh,i h teuo o ri tnf g pit a elhoj i boeu n inr s ,ls,i t.saht lists then' t g f L o c i 1 tl. al rl penny t,iinm.l o, t on has a t sh loude _ funds,_peal, inscribede oral, hisa life, name no matter honourablyfro from n w t i h ni e t e vpeargecsloa class they Liberty's com bookcome. lv o e l have said receive and invite them, nay, more, we ask you to ennoble yourselves intellectually and morally, that thus you may silently constrain respect and admi ration for the principles you advocate. If every Chartist was so elevated by pure morality and expanding intel lect as to become in reality a man, then would he pos sess a moral power, which would so inform the judgment, and so secure the respect even of his enemies,that many of them would listen to his kind yet dignified expo sition of facts and truths, and, becoming insensibly con vinced, would feel such a lively faith in the excellence of the Charter that they would leave our meetings re joicing in having found the truth. In all your attempts to spread your principles never lose sight of their full efficiency to gain an entrance into the most prejudiced mind, if they are prestnted in their pure and native beauty, unsullied and unmarred by the errors of the advocate. Remember also that steady morality wins more than the most sublime intellect accompanied by vice ; men and principles will be identified ; and, we fear, too often - have noble principles suffered from a want of equal nobility on the part of the advocate. On the method of advo cating much depends ; ever distinguish between vitipu ration and argument ; remember that insult and anni hilation is not conviction, and never for a moment allow yourself to conceive that swaggering Billingsate is eitber dignity or determination. bec W au e se ha vv v e e ti and of Chartism to the cause of humanity', , l , tis ' m derends tile religion ; on the speedy success h f ein s g in almost every happiness of millions of la . nan t iie. with w 0 the r ld;,s i . nt . e are n ui t l h y u i s e f I . particular sjb 1e of e in imomuecr;as,d.vzi ! ay e o p oo t rn o t,a y n o c u e , p a r rests backwards or forwards on the de liverance must ruova bac barrier • to its progress is event of this movement ; every le human family every aid, o . 1t the A qu it es T ti H o u b it e,.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAT. TIMES.—The intelligence froriAmerica was no sooner received this morning than Consols declined full a per cent. A sale by the Bank broker to some extent further weakened the market In the course of the day, however, a few specu lators took advantage of the depression to make some purchases for the account, and this caused a reaction, though a very slight ono, which was in some measure a id e d by the easiness of money, now obtainable on the Stock Exchange at 4 per cent. Indeed the movement, both towards the decline and the reaction, such as it was, was solely owing to the operations of parties en the Stock Exchange, and the public do not seem . to have had any notion of alarm. A mong th e j u bbers the opinion on our relations with America is divided, but the general feeling seems to be that the disposition of the Harrison Go vernment is too pacific to allow of any serious outbreak, even supposing the Americans were in a position to commence hos tilities. Nevertheless, the effect of the news, both of this and the last arrival, on the Stock M ar k e t, h as been very serious, the fall amounting to nearly 1 per cent., if reference be made to the quotation of Wednesday last. Even this would not give the full extent of the injury, as the funds were previously . to the first arrival progressively rising, and, besides the mere dif ference of quotations, the check to the general adyance ought to be taken into consideration. POST.—The American information sent into the City in the course of the day, through a second edition of this journal, was perused with deep interest by our commercial men. The heat displayed upon the M'Leod question in the Ilui ed States Legislature is greatly condemned by the whole of the Ameri can trade, and, apparently, by none with to much earnestness as by the Americans connected with that trade themselves. It is thought quite increditletthat a nation which - has benefited so largely by its intercourse with this country can really contem plate making war upon us, especially at a moment when the motive for a continuance of amicable relations should natu rally be stronger than in ordinary times. The English secu rities declined in consequence of the news, but recovered in 'some degree before the close of business, as it is considered by many that the existing difficulty would be speedily settled upon the accession to office of the Harrison party, on the 4•h of the present month, the more particularly as there can be no doubt that the violence of the retiring Ministry has been brought into play for the express purpose of embarrassing them. SUN.—The advices from the United Stases being of a unsatisfactory tenour, not only as respects political, but also monetary affairs there, the Stock Market has been depressed rather sensibly, the decline being at least 1 per cent. There was a moderate business done at the reduced rater, but nothing amounting to a run among the holders to make sales. Consols for Money dropped from 84 to 84 and 88, and for the Account from 88i 89 to 881 and I. The Market dosed at 881 to I for the former, and 88- to for the latter. We may remark that the ex tent of the depression is not to be measured exactly by ti e actual decine as the Market on Saturday had a decided tendency to advance still fur hrr. Exchequer Bills r-- mained at a premium of 7c. to 9s. to.day, and India Bonds were at a discount of 20s. to 18s. The New Threc and-a-Half per Cent?. ranged from 961 to 97. The Foreign Bonds bal a downward teneelcy, as may be inferred from the position of the market for the Engli h Stock. Spanish Actives retrograded from 241 to 234 24; Portugue-e New Five per Crag., in the absence a any later Ltelligence f.om Lisbon, were heavy at 311, the Three per Ce;it -, . brought 191 ; Braz 1 Stock ranged from 71 to 1 ; Buenos Ayres as ere at 231 ; Mexican dropped from 281 to 271 28 ; Cdlombian from 231 to 221; and Peruvian were dull at 17. Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents, were at 501 to 3, and the Five per Cent=. at 991 to 1. Danish Bonds were 771 to 1. In Shares a fair amount of business was done. Grei.t Western brought 221 to 231, the New 11, the Fifths 5 to A-; the Birmingham 77 to 79, the Qu arter eq. t h e Thirds 24 ; and the South We t. ra 173 premium. B igh ton were 7 to 71, Blackwall 51 to 5, Greenwich 121 ex dividend, Croydon 11, South Eastern 16;1, and Binning ham and Gloucester 22 discount. National Bank of Ira la id Shares were 2 discount, and Union Bank of Aus tralia 7 premium. The followirg remarks on the position of the United States Bank, appear t r deserve attention : " The position of the Banks is neither more nor less affected than it has heea during the last eighteen months, exce,ling now that they have less specie, and the public more, thei. circulation being decreased by the amount of bills redeemed. The immediate consequence of this state of affairs will no doubt be, that the'Government o f Penn sylvacia will legalize the suspension for a year, and autho rise the issue of one, two, and three dollar bills, which, in pursuing the wild acksonian polka:, it had a few years ago prohibited. " Money will then be plentiful and business good at Philadelphia, and at New York they sail have the benefit of the specie released, as above noticed. Within the year the National Government will establish a National Bank, and the currency. of the Status will gradually be brought to that sound state in which General Jackson found it when ho first attacked the Bank, with the intention to de stroy it. In respect to the aahre of the shares.-in the present Bank, that will depend on the amount which may be finally realized out of tie assets. The public here are at present panic-struck, as is generally the case on like occasions. A large allowance may be made from the assets, and :All leave the shires worth 75 dollars, or th(ir par value. There appears to be no doubt that a conspi racy has existed on tire part of money-brokers at New York to destroy the Bank. Such is the accaant from well informed parties there." POLITICAL SUMMARY OF THE MORNING JOURNALS. The Morning Herald of this day, in a leading article on the subject of Mr. Pickens's Report on Col. 111'Leoct7s case, ob serves :—" Among all the extraordinary documents which have fallen under our notice from time to time, professing to belong to the historical category of grave State-papers, this is beyond all question the most extraordinary. It is difficult to say . whe ther it abounds more in absurdity or falsehood. It is indeed so extravagant a specimen of democratic dialectics run mad, that, if it did not point to a tragical conclusion, it would be utterly unworthy of any serious notice." The Morning Chro nicle remarks,- with* reference to Sir Robert Peel's speech last night in the House of Commons, on the case of the Earl of Cardigan and the Eleventh Hussars :—" Sir Robert Peel did himself very little credit by his affected com passion for Lord Cardigan. The presumption is, that the °Meets of the Eleventh are exposed to in justice because Lord Cardigan is a man of rank, ra ther than that his rank expo , e3 him to injustice from the press. The gentlemen with whom the press has sympathised have many of them served their country in various climes, and under commanding officers who bore the highest testimony to their soldierly qualities and gentlemanly conduct. The Right Honourable Baronet has no sympathy to expend on these officers, but he is fu'l of sympathy f or th e man of rank. The Earl of Cardigan had been already driven from one regiment by sentence of a court-martial, stigmatised for ungentlemanly conduct, while the officers of the Eleventh came bt fore the public with unspotted reputation. When he was restored to command, all that has taken place was confidently pre dicted. Those who had attended to the Court-martial were certain that Lord Cardigan's faults were incurable. • But Sir Robert Peel must lend his lungs to abuse the press, which, without reference to party, has unanimously espoused the case of the victims of military despotism. Has Sir Robert Peel the hardihood to pretend that the press and the public feel differently with regard to the Earl of Cardigan ? Does he mean to say that there is not one feeting .through out society against the Earl of Cardigan and in favour of the officers? It may be mean to seek popularity by un fair means, but it is folly to court unpopularity by pertina ciously_abotting conduct which is deserving of reprobation." The Morning Post thus expresses itself on the subject of the American Report on Colonel APLeod's affair :—" The report contains within itself abundant evidence that its authors were actuated by a spirit of jealousy and enmity towards Great. Britain, combined with a determination to do everything in their power to embarrass the Government of the new Presi dent, which they clearly anticipate will be desirous of avoid ing any collision with this country." The Times, in an article on the subject of the PuEeyites, remarks as follows :- 66 We thought, and still think, it a matter of fact, that the influence of these and other similar writers has been much more extensive than their immediate party; and that whether those who approve of all which they have said or written be many or few, they have been the means of reviving very generally among the clergy, and with great and increasing power, the profession of certain leading sloctrines which (in their judgment) broadly distinguish the Church of England from every sect of Dissenters. Our cor respondent names certain Bishops whom he considers to have censured portions of the teaching of the Oxford divines. We appeal to his candour to say, whether some of those very Bishops have not seconded the teaching of the same divines, upon ecrtain controverted points of the greatest possible Un importance?" in a hollo w , h as never b een ;toes sele c ti on f ar a roya l surprisin g t h at comp l a i nts -- ..., BUCKINGHAM PALACE GARDENS.— The site,b,ou considered, idfnetgrhe,lasa,npwdaleiat,i!,iees,lniferovet:m.: ha b e e r i fe r ef f oi cr c , Sir James should no made of t he p d b a y m si p e n ia e n ss , n a r n i : in in g sa fr l o ub m rit t y lle of ve it r s y a of vezetabk: sur rounding atmosphere.

The betting yesterday afternoon, if not heavy, was interest ing, as far as it regarded the three principal favourites; the backers of each being so "fond," that, after the first hour, it was a very close race for the premiership. Coronation, at the opening, had a decided kad ; Eringo was then backed with grea', spirit, reached him, and seemed to have a slight call ; lastly, the Rosalie party came up with a bit of a rush, took as little as 14 to 1, and left off at the head of the list; our quo taticris belew exhibit the highest odds offerPd against each at the chrs ,, .

It i 3 the production of an English officer, who has resided long er.ough in various parts of our Asistic possessions to be thoroughly convt nant with the cha-acteristics both of the natives of all ranks and those of his fellow-countrymen, denizens with him in the same land. He has produced a story of great interest, and an exceed ingly correct and pictu►efque view cf the country in which his scenes are laid, and the persons who are made to figure in them. The incidents are all well tol•t. But with these merits, the work possesses great claims on the considera tion et the public for the extent of the information it con tains regarding the present state of India, the author having in the progress of the story introduced a body of facts conveying a lively sketch of the condition and pros. pacts of that important portion of the British possessions.— New Monthly.

THE POPE AND THE SWISS CONFEDERATION. The Ami de la Constitution de Berne of the 4th publishes the text of the note which the nuncio of the Pope to the Hel vetic Confederation has addressed to the Vorort on the sub ject of the sulgassion of convents in the canton of Argau : " Gentlefffl=-The unfortunate events which have taken place in the Canton of Argau impose on me the duty of ad dressing myself to the Vorort. I , will not dwell upon these events. The enlightened Statesmen composing the Vorort well know how to appreciate them according to the origin, causes, and effects, as well as circumstances, which have attended them. I am convinced that they appreciate them in as impartial a mai ner as history will do, when temperance and reflection have re sumed the upper hand. As representative of the Pcpe, who as head of the Catholic Church is to watch over the preservation of fou,dat ions and institutions belonging to Catholicism, I hasten to fulfil a painful duty by protesting against the suppression of the convents in the 'Canton of Argau by order of the Grand Council. As the retention of the convents in the Canton of Argau is formally and expressly guaranteed by article 12 of the federal compact, it is impossible to place that article in ac cordance with the decree of suppression. It is impossible not to sc ein the latter the violation of the former. The Grand Connell sought to evade the intention of article 12 of the federal compact by stating previously in its decree that at the time of the deliberations on the federal compact the Canton of Argau made certain reservations against every express guarantee in favour of the convent.. That assertion, if it were really true, would prove that if Argau has had views and projects on the convents, which are by no means in accimlance with the federal compact, it cannot weaken nor suppress the insured guarantee to the convents and cantons. Negotiations and deliberations do not always pre cede the conclusion of treaties, but the treaties themselves, which form the public right. It is thus that in the federal compact of the 7th of August, 1815, which is the Helvetic constitution and basis of its public right, and which pre ceded tl.e acknowledgment of neutrality on the part of the Powers whose signatures were affixed to the Treaty of Vienna, neither Europe nor Switzerland have found, nor will ever find, a reservation for the Canton of Argau, against the measures of Artic'e 12. On the contrary, the Deputies of Argau signed unreservedly and without restriction, the federal compact in the same manner as the Deputies of the other cantons, and they swore to observe and exe cute it faithfully. The resolution of the 13th of January cannot be considered as a penal measure, for in St ites where power is divided, as in the Canton of Argau, the Grand Council (the legislative power) has not the right to judge and punish the authors of crimes ; it is the business of the judicial power. The tribunals, when called upon to try causes, will consult the laws and weigh everything impartially without favour or affection. An inquiry wall be set on loot according to the protecting forms established by the It gislation of all countries. The accused and their counsel will be heads, and if the former be found guilty, laws will be found to punish them The legal penalties will be enforced, but not a penalty which, like the suppression, is not and cannot be established by the penal code. The decree of suppression of the 13th January is but a legislative measure, and as such is rejected by the federal party. I regret to find myself in the painful necessity of making such observations ; but it is my duty. The Vorort will feel that in such a state of things I must exact in favour of the convents of Argau the maintenance and execution of the federal compact, and for that purpose I address myself to the authorities, who, ,by their position, are called upon the first to protect them. It may be hoped that the Grand Council of Argau, yielding to the councils of the Vorort, and after nature reflection, will withdraw the decree, which, it may be said, without offending anybody, has been adopted in a spirit of hostility—a decree which hurts all Catholic Switzerland, and evidently weakens the friendly relations between the cantons.

According to the statement for the prosecution, a person named Walker and the prisoner deposited 16/. in the bank, and received an account able receipt. This money belonged to a Lodge of Odd Fel lows, and it would appear that the prisoner had written the name of Walker en the face of the receipt without his autho rity, and obtained the money, not however f.r himself, but for the minority in the Club, in which there had been a division. The Jury, after having retired for a considerable time, re turred a verdict of Net The oas s tried on the Civil Side were destitute of interest, and on Saturday the business of the Assizes lea miaated. OXFORD CIRCUITWORCESTER, MARCH 6. Francis Taylor was indicted for highway robbery. It appeared that on the 13th of November last, the prosecu tor, Richard How, was returning homewards at night from work, when he was overtaken by the prisoner, who accosted him, and asked him to go into a public-house and have a pint of ale. The prosecutor accepted the invitation, and after staying there about an hour, and partaking of one pint of ale, which he paid for himself, left _to go home, the prisoner accompanying him, stating that he was going ha same way. When they got about BO 3ards from the public-house, the prisoner went behind the prosecutor, and passing to his right side, struck him a left-handed blow which knccked him down and left him insensible for some time. The pi iioner had lost his left hat.d, and were, as a substitute, a stout piece of leather round the stump of the atm, with a thick piete of iron at the etid, into which various implements might be fastened with a screw. The prosecutor, on recovering, missed a knife, a to bacco-box, and three shillings which the box contained. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. The prisoner was again put on his trial for committing, to gether with some other person unknown, another highway sob bery.upon the same prosecutor as in the former ewe - . On the 28th of November the prosecutor was going home, when, almost Within a yard (if the spot on which the former robbery took place, he was knocked down by two men ; one of them held him while the other commenced rifling Lis pockets, and took from him one sovereign, four half-t roans, and five shillings. He tried to bite the hand of one of them, and bit a piece of iron, and, upon the parties running away, he called a'ter them, and told the prisoner that he knew him. Upon this they boill returned, beat him with great seacrity, and were dragging him towards a pool of water, about twenty feet deep, when a Mrs. Jones, who was returning home from Dudley market with two of her children,- hearing a cry of mur der, made tov.ards the spot, and the •il , ains c!ecamp ec l. Th e prisoner was apprehended the next day. The Jury immediately returned a verdict of Guilty ; and Mr. Baron G URNEV, after some severe observations on the barbarity of the prisoner's conduct, sentenced him to trauspor tation for life. The Learned JUDGE then called Mrs .Ten I‘.s inti the box, prais,d the spirit and coura.ze which she had displayed, said ordered a reward of 5/. to be paid to her. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COUL.T. OLD COURT. Joseph Dean, 27, was indicted for feloniously cutting and woundi ,g Edward Wiseman, with intent to do him some I..ie vious b odily harm. Mr. Phillips appeared for the priioner. From the evidence adduced, it appeared that, on the sth of February, the prosecutor went to the house of a person named Ambrusk, while in a state of intoxication, and that a despe rate fight took rlace with the prisoner, the prosecutor, and same others present, and the prosecutor received a blow on the left eye which deprived him of sight.- The police constable, a man nalicel tslu-pnerJ, of the R division, gave his evidence ha such a confusal and contradictory manner, that he was repri manded by the Recorder, who expi essed an opinion that the in! abitants of Greenwich ought to Le served by some more intelligent person than he zweared to be. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty of a common assault, and he was sentenced to three months' imprisonment. the Ri:coßDEr. observed that he should not allow the ex penses of the_ witnesses, except the surgeon. The constable said he hal been put to great expense in pro curing the attendance of witness:-s, and he hoped the Court would allow him to be reimbursed. The RECORDBIL slid that if the public paid andemployed him, they had a right to expect him to give a correct version of any airar he might be engaged in. He had not done that in the per sent instance, and therefore he would not receive any ey penses. lane Hedditch, 46, was, indicted for stabbing and wounding Thomas Day, with intent to do hisn some grievous bodily has .n. The facts of the case have been recently very fully given in oar Bow-street police report, and it will therefore be unneces sary to report them. The Jury found tl e prisoner guilty of a common assault, and she was sentenced to three moxths' imprisonment. NEW COURT. ROBBERY BY A SERVANT, AND ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE. William Gant, aged 20, was indicted for stealing 20 yards of silk, and a variety of other articles of drap ry, consider ab!e amount, the property of Mr. J. P. Harvey, to whom ho was a servant. Mr. Doane defended the prisoner, and Mr. Clarkson prose cuted, and stated the case to the Jury at considerable length. Mr. Hugh Wilson, the overkoker and principal manager to Mr. Harvey, stated, that he told the prisoner on the 17th of February that he suspected him of dishonesty, wen he re plied, " that he did not know why he should be so treated." When given in chlrge, the prisoner desired leave to speak to the prosecutor. After that Inspector Salmon and 'witness accompanied the prisoner to his dormitory, to examine his box, wherein was found the articles named in the indictment, and he (prisoner) leaned forward to point them out. During the search the prisoner went on the other side the bed, and blood was directly seen flowing from his throat. His hands were restrained, to prevent him from doing himself further inj cry. Inspector Salmon p-otlueed a quantity of articles taken from the prisoner's box, which were sworn to by Mr. Wilson as the property ef the prosecutor. Mr. DOANE addressed the Jury, and said he would not at ' tempt to struggle against evidence so conc l us i ve . An lie could do was, to mae a few remarks, with the hope of a mbigated punishment. The prisoner was not an adept at crime, and expressed his contrition when detected—he did more, fur be went readily and pointed out to Mr. Wilson and the inspector the articles he had purloined ; and, finally, made a desperate attempt upon his own life, The Costiwort-SERGEANT said that the ease was one en. • . . . tirely for the Jury, the rest rernainPoi wiih the Court. The Foreman then declared the prisoner Guilty, but strongly recommended him to the clemency of the Court. The June asked Mr. Wilson whether he was instructed to join in the recommendation ? Mr. Wilson said that Mr. Harvey had so much property and so many accounts that he was obliged to make an example ; yet he was sure that. he (Mr. Harvey) won'd not regret to hi ar .•f the recommendation of the Jury. The Co.-Nt3toN-SeacEA NT said that but for the circum stance of the Jury recommending the prisoner to mercy, the Court must have passed a sentence of transportation. This was a commcn case, and one of thche where, no doubt, a woman bad been the tempter. The sentence was, that the prisoner be kept to hard labour for one year. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE, Tits NEW POOR LAW. —A man, named Shillingworth, aged 26. and hip veil . .., aged 24, were brought before Al derman Pirie, having been found in a destitute condition in the City on Saturday night.
