11. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS. Sept. 6. 'he Duke of Wellington entered the House a few minutes before five o'cloek, and took his seat in the place heretofore occupied by Lord Melbourne. He was sup ported on the Treasury Bench by Lord Wharneliffe. the Earl of Haddington, the Earl . of Ripon, and the Duke of Buckingham. About the same time Lord Brougham entered the- House, and took his seat exactly opposite to his former position, viz., at the head of the bench, close to the chief opposition one, which was soon after occupied by Lord Melbourne, Lord Cottingham (the late Lord Chancellor), the Marquis of Lansdowne, Lord Duncan non, the Earl of Minto and Lord Campbell. The LORD CHANCELLOR (Lord Lyndhurst) entered the House at tweisty minutes past five o'clock, and took his seat on the Woolsack. The Duke of Sutherland .entered the House shortly afterwards and caused considerable laughter, his Grace proceeding to the Ministerial side of the House, and not discovering his mistake till he found by whom he was surrounded. Upon his Grace attempting to proceed to the side of the House occupied by his political friends, Lord Wharncliffe caught hold of his hand for the purpose of restraining him, but his Grace, true to his political creed, was not to be led astray. On the motion of Lord WHARNCLIFFE certain correspondence between Lord J. Russell and the Magis trates of Nottingham was ordered to be laid on the table. ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE BILL. Lord COTTENHAM moved the committal of the Ad ministration of Justice Bill. The House having resolved itself into Committee, Lord SHAFTESBURY in the Chair, Lord BROUGHAM said their Lordships were aware that he had some objections to make tolthe Bill, but he preferred bringing them forward on the bringing up of the Report. Lora CAMPBELL said it was his intention to move an amenthnent, with respect to the qualification of the ex-Vice-Chancellor, in order to remove doubts that might exist as the clause at present stood with respect to the right of the Crown to appoint to that situation a member of the Irish bar of fifteen years' standing. He trusted that their Lordships would have no objection to that amendment. The Bill then went through Committee, and on the question that the Report be brought up, Lord BROUGHAM said—Perhaps it would be more convenient to take the amendments in the order of the clauses. The 19th clause enabled the Crown to appoint two Vice-Chancellors, and he maintained that, although the arrears was such that it was necessary to give some addition to the judicial powers, yet the arrears being of a temporary nature, there was no occasion to make the additional power permanent.—(Hear, hear.) By the Bill as :t at present stood, one of the new Judges was to be permanent and the other temporary. The 20th clause provided that one of the.Vice-Chancellors was to be permanent, and the other to be only during the life of the person originally appointed. Now, he thought there ought to be only one Vice-Chancellor appointed, and that the other should be but temporary. He would not detain the House by repeating the arguments he had urged on a former occasion. What had since passed had eailier strengthened his objections, and he referred ,;idly to the delay that had taken place with regard to the Bill. It was now fourteen months ' , ince the Bill had been brought into the House. It was .eferred by his Noble and Learned Friend to a elect Committee, and had been adopted by the :.—(Hear, hear.) It was then sent down ) the other House, and there it fell through. He would not now enter into the reasons of its supposed liilare ; but if there had been such an apprehension, and ,ach an anxiety for the relief of suitors, he thought a clay of twelve months ought not to have been suffered. ..le was so impressed with that fact, that he took an opportunity of bringing another Bill into that douse, which could not in any way interfere with •he privileges of the other House, but the last 'arlfaeient did not think fit to pass that Bill, and the delay which had been consequent on that refusal rather confirmed him in the grounds he :ad given for his opposition to this addition. He would then satisfy himself:* with proposing on the 20th clause to substitute the word " and" in place of the word " to," and the consequential alterations dependant upon that word. lons. Lord COTTENFIAM hoped their Lordships would not lirn;i: the relief proposed to be given by the Bill to the suitors in Chancery by agreeing to the amendment preposed by his Noble and Learned Friend, who ad net said one word respecting the transference of the business mow transacting in the Equity side of the Ex chequer, which must of necessity increase the business in the Court of Chancery. Neither had his Noble and Learned Friend in any way alluded to the Com mittee, which reported upon the existing abuses in the Court of Chancery. Before that Committee barristers solicitors, and agents, and, indeed, all persons concerned Lithe business of that Court, were examined, and the opi -,ion of all, without exception, was, that one additional Judge would not relieve them from the pressure. Tne evidence indeed led many to doubt whether two ad -4' itieeel Judges would be sufficient, because it would be felly eepee-el when the business in the Court of ; . nanecry was freed from delay it would naturally incnase, for they said it was now the constant practice the profe:kiion to dissuade persons from coming into the Court, unless the cause liras of some magnitude iii (umequeuce of the ex - Are:eel delay in obtaining justice. ''he evidence given betote that Committee had led many te change their opinions. They went in with an opinion tall:. one Judge would. /le - sufficient and were convinced that two would scarcely answer. An experience of . 46 , veers la the Court. •,f- iThancery satisiled him that one . additional Judge wf..uld not be sufficient The amendment was then put and negatived without a. division. Lo -1 - CA- 77 ' 17 '....ULL then moved to insert the words so as to render Irish barristers of fifteen '" Asir; alio eligible for office under the Bill. • H. ' 1.0!".1) 'CHANCELLOR said he thought the enneeessary, as the words "barrister at law" ii an Engli'sli or an Irish barrister. faio A MIME LI, said he had consulted several le al fr.-lends ou,the subject, and as they thought with himsilf, that doubts might arise respecting it, he thought it im 7oortae,', they should be removed by the Bill.—(Hear.) BROUGHAII said if the words were added in ;hie Bill, he thought similar doubts would be raised with. respect to the present Vice-Chancellorship, created by -the 53.1 Clec;. The Earl of IVICIIILOW thought the suggestion of 'Lio Noble Lord (Brougham) wis very important. --(Hear.) It wa3 evident that it was not intended to cxelude any member of the Irish bar from office under the 8111, and therefore it was desirable that this Bill m. have the practical effect of excluding Irish bar risters•from the oilier office. Under these circumstances he ;rested their Lordships would give the Bill such cm ,;A-ration as would remove the objection stated. Lord CAMPBELL said their Lordships were all of pinion that Irish barristers should be eligible to these %ices, and as far as the two new offices wera concerned. e weals ho proposed were clearly sufficient. He was n;'33s enxions that it should be understood that they ,11. t) igilrle to the office as it then existed, and he urelertalie,to introduce words on the 3d reading wii;ch should certainly etnet i.Ehtiqeet,'--(1/ear.1 The LOIII) CHAI`XELLOR suggested that the and Learned Lord would postpone his amendment third reading of the Bill. Ler,l CAMPBELL said that if, as the Noble and c!iyd Lord on the Woolsack. seemed to think, it would tiff caore eenvenient that the amendment should be in rediwed on the third reading of the Bill, he li..ord Campbell) was ready to ac2ede to the Noble and Learned Lord's euggustion ; but, certainly, before 'the Bill left that House he should ask ther Lordships whether any doubts ought to exist in a matter el . such importance. The Noble and Learned Lord then withdrew his amendment. 1,4w:1 BROUGHAM read a letter from the Lord Chief Justii c, deprecating the principle of compensation under the c ircumstances referred to. The clause was then struck out. Th e report was then received, and the Bill was ordered to lee: read a third time to-morrow. A messenger from the House of Commons brought up the Earl of Scarborough's Indemnity Bill. FUNISHMEN'P OF DEATti BILL. The Eirl of WICKILOW begged leave to call the at tention of her Majesty's present Ministers to the fact Ireland was not included in the Punishment of v)eath Bill as it had been introduced last Session. He Lad at the time pointed out the anomaly, and he hoped it would receive the consideration of the new Government. The Duke of WELLINGTON said he w ou ld ca ll t h e attention of his. Right, Hon. Friend the S ecre t ar y f or the Home Department to the subject. Their Lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS, Sept. 6. The SPEAKER took the Chair at a Quarter before Foi:r o'clock. There were about one hundred Members (prin c ip a lly Conservatives) at the sitting of the House. They took their seats on the Ministerial sides. The only Liberal Meinher who maintained his former place was Mr. \V aklY• The Opposition benches were nearly empty , there not being more than a dozen Members, among whom we observed Mr. Hawes, Mr. Roebuck, Dr. Bow ring, Mr. HQmphery, &c. Lord Ingestrie , Sir George Clerk, and Sir Thomas Fremantle, were on the Treasury bench. Mr. CILESWELL, and Mr. a DUNDAS took the oaths and their seats. TAXES ON FOOD. Mr. HAWES presented a petition from a Mr. Wil liam Blanton, of Burnley, stating that if a man and his wife, with two children, consumed food according to a certain scale mentioned in the petition, they would . lave to pay 14s. Gd. per week for it; whereas, if the taxes on corn and other articles connected with the food of the labouring classes were repealed, he would only have to pay ss. Ild., making a difference of Bs. 7d. per week, in consequence of the present system of tax ation. He therefore prayed the House to abolish all taxes on food. PETITIONS FROM FOREIGNERS, Mr. lIUTT said he had a petition to present from a 2rencbman largely concerned in the importation of watches. It was in the French language ; but he ap prlhended that would be no objection to its presentation. The SPEAKER said the lion. Member ought to be nrepared to present a translation with it. — (Laughter.) I.lere would be no objection to its being presented if it vere accompanied with a translation. The petition was then withdrawn. Mr. SHAW brought in the Lagan Navagation Bill, which was read a first time. At a few minutes before five o'clock Lord PALMER ;TON entered _ti House and took his seat on the front Opposition benches. ELECTION PETITIONS. The SPEAKER then called on any Hon. Members having election petitions to present to do so. petitions were accordingly presented complaining of undue returns for the following places :—County of Cork, bo rough of Sudbury, borough of Athlone, two petitions ; city of Gloucester, town of Southampton, two petitions ; borough of Kindale, City of Dublin, town of Nottingham, the Elgin district of burghs, county of Kerry, county of Tipperary, city of Lichfield, borough of Blackburn, borough of Dudley, city of Ro chester, two petitions • borough of Newport, Isle of Wight; borough of Bewdley, borough of Newry, (from Sir John M. Doyle,) county of Wigton, borough of Wakefield, (from Mr. S. Lascelks) ; county of Flint ; borough of Cardigan, two petitions (one from Mr. Pryse Pryse) ; borough of Reading, and county of Louth. The Petitions were then ordered to lie on tho table. The usual order was agreed to, that the Speaker issue ids warrant for persons, paper„ and records necessary :Or the trial of election petitions. EARL OF SCARBORorJGH'S INDEMNITY BILL. The Earl of Scarboro-agh's Indemnity Bill was brought up from the Lords, Sir T. FREMA:STLE then gave notice of his inten tion to move thr..t the Bill should be advanced immedi ately throne'. its different stages. Such a course was not contrary to precedent, as appeared from the case of the Earl of Harborough's Bill in 1820. Lord PALMERSTON had no objection to the course proposed. Mr. WAKLEY would not oppose the proceeding, but he trusted that, whenever a poor man might violate the law through ignorance, the House would be equally ready to extend to him its indulgence. The Bill was then read a first time, read a second time, committed, read a third time, and passed. NOTICES OF MOTION. Dr. BOWRING said that he understood that the Rt. Hon. Gent. the Member for Taunton, who had recently held the situation of President of the Board of Trade, had been for some time past collecting the tariffs of dif ferent countries, and that a most complete collec tion had been made. A collection of a similar nature had been laid before the Congress of the United States of America, and had been found eminently useful; he should therefore take an early opportunity of moving that an humble address be presented to her Majesty, praying that her Majesty would be graciously pleased to give directions that there be laid before that House copies of the Custom-house tariffs, regulating the imports and exports in the different countries, with the weights, measures, and amounts of duties stated in British weights, mea sures, and monies. He also gave notice, that on an early day he should move for a Committee to inquire into the propriety of removing the prohibitions to the importation of foreign cattle— sheep, lambs, and swine ; and also for a Committee to consider the propriety of facilitating the importation of butter, cheese, hams, and pork ; and with regard to the motion of which he had given notice some time since relative to taxation levied on the land in foreign coun tries, and which he had postponed at the desire of some Hon. Members, he begged to state that it was his in tention to bring it forward to-morrow. Mr. ROEBUCK gave notice that whenever the House should go into Committee on the Poor-law Amendment Continuation Bill, he should move that the Board of Commissioners be abolished, and that all the powers exercised by them which might be considered requisite to the working of the measure , _ should be trans ferred to the Secretary of Stat e f or th e Home Department. The Honourable Member also gave notice, that as soon as the responsible Ministers of the CroWn should have taken their seats in that House, he should move that copies of all the instructions sent out to Mr. Fox since the despatch of Mr. Webster, should be laid before the House. Mr. BODKIN gave notice that he should on an early day bring forward a motion on the subject of the amend ment of the Criminal Law. COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY. On the Order of the Day for the consideration of the Speech of the Lord Commissioners being read. Sir G. CLERK said that in the absence of the responsible Ministers of the Crown he should not think of making any motion on which any difference of opinion would be likely to arise, but it was necessary that the usual motion that a supply be granted to her Majesty should be made, before the public business could be proceeded with. He would, therefore, avail himself of the meeting of the House that day and to morrow, to take steps which would facilitate the progress of business when the responsible Ministers of the Crown should take their places. He would therefore move that a supply be granted to her Majest•. The motion was then put, and tho Committee of Sup ply ordered for to-morrow. The Navy Pay Bill was postponed till Wednesday. ELECTION PETITIONS. . . . A petition was presented, complaining of an undue return, from the borough of Penryn and FAlmouth. The House then adjourned. THE DUKE OF WELLiNGTON. When the Duke, after leaving the House, ar- rived at the portico, his horse was in waiting for him. There was a crowd of highly respectable gentlemen present, and as the Illustrious Duke was adjusting the reins, one of the crowd said, " Let us give him a cheer," and at the word a halfeheer was given, but was checked by the Duke coolly saying, " Stop till I get on!" which excited a burst of lauhter. In a little time his Grace slowly mounted, and the cheers rose with hearty vehemence, to the great annoyance of the Duke's horse, who fancied the noise. was levelled at himself, and he capered about in grand style while the cheers were repeated. The .Duke took all things very quietly, but had some difficulty in managing the horse. As his Grace rode along, the crowd on either side prolonged the cheering, but the Duke made no return. The horse had it all his own way. At length his Grace went off at a brisk trot, and left the gazing wonderment behind. His Grace looked very well, but betrayed evident symptoms of feebleness. He was dressed in his everlasting blue frock coat and white trousers. It was remarked that all the Ministers wore white inexpressibles, while the ex-Ministers were all dressed in " the blues." There was much excitement both inside and outside the walls of Parliament. THE NEW MINISTRY. The Marquis of Londonderry arrived in town by the Birmingham railroad at five yesterday morning. The Noble Marquis, in the course of the day, had a lengthened interview with Sir Robert Peel in Whitehall. ! gardens. Sir George Clerk and Sir Thomas Fremantle (joint Secretaries) transacted official business at the Trea sury yesterday. Both Hon. Gentlemen had long inter views with Sir Robert Peel early yesterday morning. The Right Hon. Baronet also gave interviews to the Earl of Aberdeen, Lord Wharncliffe, Admiral Sir William Gage, Mr. I'lanta, the Earl of Beverley, and several of the Cabinet Ministers. Sir Frederick Pollock was sworn in b fore the Lord Chancellor (Lyndhurst) yesterday as her Majesty's Attorney-General,ancl Sir William Follett took the oaths as Solicitor-General. Lord Wharacliffe transacted. business at the Council Office on Saturday and yesterdry morning. We understand that Lo r d Chi e f J ust i ce Dogherty will, in all probability, be Lord Chancellor of Ireland. A messenger was dispatched from the Homo Office on Friday night to Benumorris-, where the Learned Judge is on a visit, requiring his Lordship's attendance in town. Sir Frederick Pollock was in the House of Commons last evening. The Learned Gentldman was on the Strangers' Benches immediately under the Gallery. MIDDLESEX ELECTION REGISTRATION.— We are happy to hear that a meeting is to take place this day, at one o'clock, at the British Coffee house, Charing-cross, at which Lord Robert Grosvenor, M.P., is expected to take the Chair, to consider the best means to be adopted to defend the Liberal electors, who have been served with innumerable frivolous objections this year.

CAZINET COUNCIL.—A. meeting of the Ca binet 'Ministers was held yesterday in Downing -street. The Council was summoned for twelve o'clock, in order that its deliberations might be concluded in time for Lord Aberdeen's levee. All the Ministers were in attend ance punctually at twelve o'clock, and the neighbour-, hood of Whitehall was, during the whole morning, in an unusual bustle, from the number of official carriages which crowded its thoroughfares. The various Minis ters were at their different posts at an early hour. The " new brooms" of office being, at present, all activity. THE EARL OF ABERDEEN'S LEVEBi•---The Earl of Aberdeen, the new Secretary of State for Fo reign Affairs, held a levee yesterday in Downing-street, for the purpose of receiving the Foreigr. Ambassadors, as is usual on the accession to offi,ec. of a new Foreign nister.

A NOBLE-MINDED PEASANT.—An agricultu ral labourer named oeorge Lett, of North Crawley, who, by honest industry, sober habits, and economy, saved a sufficient sum of money bo purchase a freehold house in the parish, stated that the first rent he received should be given away in bread. Accordingly on Satur day last, half a year's rent, amounting to 2L, having been paid, he gave the money to the baker to furnish bread to be distributed at church the following day. A loaf was given to every child belonging to the Sunday School, and the remainder to the most distressed poor of the parish who attendee. church.—Northampton Herald. BANISHMENT OF WINE FROM THE SACRA MENT OF THE LORD'S SUPPER,.BY TEE•TOTALLERS.--AS the truth of a p.:ragraph respecting the exclusion of wine from the Sacrament by Tee-totallers has been denied by some anonymous writer ; the Correspondent who! fur nished the paragraph hzs shown us the number of the Temperance Advocate and Journal for August, 1 841 , which gives the names Of two individuals who appeared as delegates at the late Huddersfield Tee-total Confe rence, where it was resolved, " That this Conference deem the use of intoxicating wine, on the sacred occasion of the Lord's Supper, as unwarranted by Scripture." — Belfast News Letter.

FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE. —Though the Liberal cause has sustained " a heavy blow," it ought not to be felt as " a great discouragement" to those who are desirous of seeing the standard of Reform eventually triumphant over the temporarily ascendant banner of monopoly. There is no doubt that ten years of almost undisturbed posses sion of office by the Whig party had induced a feeling of security on the part of its members that gave a check to that activity which is the condition on which strength is continued to the intellectual as well as the physical attributes of man ; and as an excess of violent action has often led to the exhaustion of the progressive power of Reform, it is certain that in this country too much repose has led, within the last few years, to enfeeblement. But the weakness that has given to the enemy the oppoilunity of achieving a tem porary triumph needs only to be known and acknow ledged, in order to be shaken off, ana !What apathy has lost will soon be retrieved by well-directed energy. Those who to the last have led the ranks of 1,2. 1 e Libe rals, and whose courage has rather risen with, than ~:een damped by, the reverse they have sustained, are still at their posts, and it remains with public op inion to assist them in regaining the ground that has been lost, which is the only reparation that can be made for the apathy that left them without adequate support in the struggle, throughout which they boldly contested every inch that fell into the hands of the enemy. " A vigilant and virtuous opposition," the Times of this morning declares to be "an important auxiliary to the rectitude of British councils," and of course, therefore, a powerful barrier to any wrong de signs that may be entertained by the new Govern ment. The "vigilance" of the Liberal opposition must be such as to allow no official error to elude detection ; its " virtue" must be so stern and inflexible as to suffer no attack on the public welfare to escape the ignominy that ought to attach to it. The Tories have asked for a " fair trial," and in fairness it must not be denied to them. The veriest thief, who has been con victed at the Old Bailey over and over again, will be sure of a fair trial whenever he presents himself to the tribu nal of his country ; and surely what is not refused to the commonest of culprits, ought to be readily granted to the Conservatives. STANDARD.—In Oldham the cotton trade conti nues dull, with which the diminished demand for mulins may have something to do, and profits upon all sorts of power-loom cloths are low, for reasons which Mr. Fielden has explained, and which we may ex - plain shortly by saying that there are ninety-one power-loom mills in Oldham, which, albeit the number ninety-one is entitled to all veneration when it makes a Parliamentary majority, may be rather too many power-loom mills for a town of no great magnitude—it appears to be at Oldham 14 too many. If men will go on multiplying power-loom mills at such a rate, they must expect profits to diminish. The main consideration is, however, the current of manufactures generally . ; and it is plain that the direction of the current is to improvement. In nine out of eleven reports the improvement is acknowledged, though in a reluctant niggard spirit, which proves that the truth would be concealed if it were possible to con ceal it; of the other two places reported nothing worse than the absence of improvement is asserted. Things, then, are not so bad as we were told they would be. Non regredi est progredi ; even if manufactures were stationary, we need not be in despair ; but they are not stationary—they are improving—and we are entitled to claim the improvement as the first fruits of Conservative Government, which, at home as well as abroad, thus early extends its beneficial influence. To what is the improvement owing if not to Conservative government ? It may be said that the favourable change in the weather has given promise of an abundant harvest, and in this way sti mulated the hopes of the manufacturer. We are not dis posed to dispute this satisfactory testimony to the import ance of the home market. We are well aware that the more corn bought at home, and the less bought abroad, the better for manufacturers ; but it would be going too fast to assume, that the prospect, still to some extent uncertain, of a favourable harvest, has already operated in the manufacturing districts. No, it is not the prospect of anything, but the actual possession of a wise and patriotic Government, the guarantee of many good prospects, that imparts the universal confidence, which is the very element of industry in every de partment.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A young man named Roberts, was brought befura the LORD MAYOR, upon a charge, the details of which caused a good deal of amusement. Mr. Godbold, auctioneer, of Bishopsgate-street, made a long statement against the defendant, which we com press into the following:—The defendant, said Mr. God bold, came to the rooms on Saturday evening, and after making some inquiries about articles he had been look ing at on a former day, which we refused to let him have upon the terms he offered, entered into a very agree able conversation indeed, and, pulling a bottle of wine out of his pocket, asked us to taste it, which we accord ingly did, and very good it seemed, and agreeable he was in his observations. Well, the gentleman looked at some pictures, and said that he had sold a picture he had bought for half-a-crown at our rooms for the sum of 251., and another, which he had bought also for a trifle, for the sum of 151. ; and I observed that he would find it to his advantage to be a customer. Well, our conversation was extremely agreeable indeed, and we were very pleasant. The gentle man then, however, began to talk of wagering. and of tossing for a bottle of sherry ; and I said, No, I never wagered nor tossed, for whatever sherry I opened I had to pay for. At last, however, for he persevered, I agreed to toss him for half a bottle of sherry, and he won it. Well, we had it glass by glass till it was ended, and then he proposed to play cribbage or whist for Si. or 101. Qh, dear me, Sir, says I, I never play cards. However, he went on, for he would play ; and at last I agreed to play him a rubber of whist for four pints of bottled ale. The LORD MAYOR—Pray, how many of you were there ? Mr. Godbold—There were two gentlemen be sides the gentleman and myself. Very well, my Lord, it was all very agreeable, and we played and he lost. Well, it was time to give over, for it was getting dark, but he wanted to have lights, and to play double or quits for five pounds, but we resolved to go ; and as the porter had, upon leaving for the night, locked the shop door, it was necessary to leave the premises by another door ; but the moment Mr. Roberts heard the proposal to go out of the house by any other than the way he en tered, he swore that he would smash everything in the place first. This was dreadful, as the gentleman had taken nothing to make him drunk. Well, it was pro pojed by one of the party to leave him on the premises ; b u t I ,:.ould not consent to that ; so he who proposed it determined to remove him, and took hold of him for the purpose . . w i th reupon he seized hold of a piece of valu able, furniture, ai;( 1 in an instant did it an injury to the value of 41. Oh, I in4)lored him, and I beseeched him upon the subject ; b u t h'was deaf to my entreaties, and break it he would, after attt'mpting to break my shins. Mr. Humphrey, who app<hzred for the defendant, asked whether the defendant was not young enough to be Mr. Godbold's son ? Mr. Godboi:l (who appeared to be old enough to be the defendant's graQdfather)—Why, perhaps that may be the case. -Mr. Humphrey—Pray, Sir, do you not think you were wrong in allowing gambling to take place on your premises ? M”. Godbold—No, Sir ; but I think there is a great impropriety indeed in— The LORD MAYOR—In what, Sir ? Mr. Godbold— Why, my Lord, in allowing cards to be introduced at all. —(Laughter.) Mr. Humphrey—Exactly so. I thought rd get you to admit that. Mr. Godbold—But, my Lord, I was not the only per son to blame. Mr. Humphrey—No ; you and your two friends and this young man were all to blame ; but you and your friends were the greatest aggressors. The LORD MAYOR—It was certainly an odd sort of an occurrence in an auction-room. Pray where did you get the cards ? Mr. Godbold—l sent the porter for them to a public-house in the neighbourhood. The defendant said that he had previously purchased articles at the rooms, and that,upon entering them, he was invited to play cards by Mr. Godbold, who used every means to induce him, and that at the conclusion, as the party refused to let him depart at the shop-door, he sus pected their intentions, for he knew of no other door at all, and he determined to leave the house as he entered it. One of them then seized him, upon which he took hold of a piece of furniture to prevent his being dragged away, and thus the mischief was committed. He ad mitted, at the same time, that he kicked at the person who handled him so roughly. The policeman who took the defendant into custody stated that the young man was not sober at the time. A witness was examined to show that the defendant's conduct was reprehensible, but The LORD MAYOR said there was so much inconsis tency in allowing cards to be played in the rooms which ought to be devoted to business of another kind, and the whole transaction was of such a nature that he could not think of interfering for the purpose of procuring remu neration for the loss sustained by the complainant, who must put down the matter as a debt. • HATTON GARDEN. DARING ROBBERIES.—OR Monday Henry Sales, a young man, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Combe, charged by Mr. Robert Linward, pawnbroker, of St. John-street, Clerkenwell, with having stolen twelve neck laces, two gold lockets, four silver masonic medals, and other articles to a considerable amount. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor that he had known the prisoner for the last three or four years, as being in the habit of pledging articles at his shop, and, being aware that he was a journeyman cabinet-maker, in work at a house in the neighbour hood, he had no suspicion of his being dishonest. Witness was in the habit of depositing valuable pledges in a drawer behind the counter, into which the prisoner had frequently seen him place property, and from time to time he had missed various articles, and he was at a loss to account how they could be stolen, or whom to suspect ; and the persons who had pledged the articles were continually applying to him for the resto ratioruof their property, and threatening him with legal proceedings. He gave information to the police, with a description of the property, and inquiries were made, when it was traced that a silver masonic medal, a work box, and other articles, had been pledged by a person answering the prisoner's description at Mr. Wood's, an other pawnbroker, residing within a short distance from the prosecutor's shep, on the 21st of July last, when witness attended and identified the articles. On receiv ing a description of the person who pledged them, he immediately suspected the prisoner, whom he gave into custody. James Wallis, shopman to the other pawnbroker, pro duced a number of the stolen articles, and swore that the) were pledged by the prisoner. The prisoner, in his defence, denied the robberies, or having pledged the articles at Mr. Wood's. He was en tirely innocent. Mr. Wood's shopman, however, said he could positively identify his person. Mr. COMBE remanded the prisoner for a week, and in structed Sergeant Scotsman, of G division, to use every exertion to trace the stolen property. WOOLWICH POLICE. In consequence of a desperate row between the cadets belonging to the Royal Military Academy and the police on Saturday night, the office was crowded to hear the charges ugainst Mr. Edward Gilbert, Mr. Wm. Grant, the Hon. Frederick Russell, and a waiter named Joseph Ashdown. Captain Barnaby, R.A., Adjutant of the Academy, was in attendance to watch the proceedings. Upon the prisoners coming into Court they placed them selves in front of the dock, and were ordered by Mr. Grove to take their place in the dock. Police-constable Palmer, 156 R, deposed that, on Sa '-rday night, about half-past eleven, he was on duty in Qtreet, when he saw a body of young gentlemen ' , ree cadets in uniform. He was not aware at ottacking '' belonged to the same corps, nor how the tie' they -iced.ced. He desir e d them to desist as. the quarvel csotmmftt they refused to do.

When tinLeY as sistance arrived, they secured, one by one, the priso,: era . at the bar, who declared, had they got their sticks, they would have cleared them all, and were otherwise most outrageous in the station-house.

This distinguished officer's late official situations in the Cana das, both Upper and Lower, afforded him singular faci lities for the due execution of such a task ; and the public may look for a work abounding in that authentic information, which is of itch inestimable value in regard to countries to which the tide of emigration is again set ting with renewed vigour. The day before yesterday a young couturiere, in the Rue Saint Honore, endeavoured tc , suffocate herself with charcoal, but she was discovered hi time for medi cal assistance to be of avail. In the morning a man, with whom this female had intimate relations, called, and received from the hands of the 'porter a letter which she had written to him, and which he read as he went up stairs. It announced her intention to destroy herself. On arriving at the door of the girl's room this person saw a letter on the outside, addressed to the porter. He picked it up, without concerning himself as to the poor girl further than by giving it to the porter as he left the house, saying " Here is a letter for you ; as for me, lam off.' The porter having read the letter, and ascertained what had taken place, rushed to the room, and, having forced open the door, called in medical aid, which a few moments later might have been useless. SUDDEN DEATHS.—Several awful instances of sudden death have occurred within the last few days. —A Mrs. Jamieson, who kept a small grocery shop in Dudhope-crescent, while in the act of weighing some coffee to an individual on the evening of Eaturday week, dropped down and instantly expired.—On the following morning Wm. Mahon, sailors' officer, also suddenly ex pired in his bed. About seven o'clock his wife rose to kindle the fire. Hearing him groan, she turned round, and found to her astonishment that he was dead. Ile was about 60 years Gf age.—The same evening Mrs. Tosh, wife of David Tosh, master of the Tay steam-packet, dropped down while in the act of taking a fish from the fire. She had been twice at the church during the darg, and had no complaint prior to her demise.—Dundee Warder. M.
