FRANCE. In the sitting of the National Assembly on Tuesday, in answer to a question by M. Sarrans, M. Drouyn de Lhuys, Minister for Foreign Affairs, replied that the Assembly had made known its intentions with regard to Rome; that an envoy had been sent to that capital and the French head-quarters ; that he was the bearer of the resolution of the Assembly, and was ordered to conform to it. As respected Hungary, the gravity of events had attracted the serious attention of the Government. It had addressed remon strances on the subject to the Cabinets of Lon don, Vienna, Berlin, and St. Petersburgh. He re gretted his inability to give the Assembly further explanations. If M. Sarrans could devise other measures, be requested him to indicate them, and if any member was anxious for war he should assume the responsibility of that calamity by making it the object of a formal proposition. M. Guichard next spoke, after which M. Joly rose and said, that it was impossible the Assembly could be satisfied with the explanations given by the Minister for Foreign Affairs. The latter, he maintained, should be compelled to lay on the table the replies returned to his communications by the foreign Cabinets. If those commu nications proved without result, or were un favourably received, France should adopt energetic measures. For his part, he preferred war to the de gradation of his country and the destruction of its liberties. He then called en the Government to re cognize and protect the Roman Republic instead of attacking it, to form an alliance with nations, and break off all connexion with Kings. In conclusion, he proposed the following order of the day :—" The Na tional Assembly, considering that the manifesto of the Emperor of Russia, and the treaties concluded between Russia, Austria, and Prussia, are an attempt against the principle of the public law proclaimed by the French Constitution, and ratified by the vote of the National Assembly, protests, in the name of the French people, against that new coalition which menaces the liberties of Europe, and enjoins the Government to adopt immediately the most energetic measures to enforce respect for the principle of the independence and nationality of the Roman Republic." M. Manguin, who followed, observed, that, although the speech of M. Joly contained many sentiments he concurred in, he should vote against it, because he believed that an expiring Assembly could not adopt so important a resolution. M. Vaulabelle replied that the Conven tion at its last sitting had voted the incorporation of the Duchy of Bouillon with France, the establishment of the Institute, of the Polytechnic School, of the Court of Cessation, &c. General Cavaignac next rose and said that he would vote against the order of the day, but was afraid its non-adoption should be misinter preted in the country. He had voted against the expedition, because he did not wish Rome to be attacked. He thought France should respect the Roman Republic, without, however, being obliged to support it. It should not be said that the Assembly was indifferent to the danger which menaced the country. That danger came from Russia, whose atti tude, and the recent manifesto of the Emperor, com pletely altered the situation of affairs in Europe, and the course of foreign policy to be pursued by France. He trusted that M. Joly would accordingly con sent to modify his resolution. M. Joly acquiesced in the demand of the General, suppressed the para graph relative to the Roman Republic, and proposed that the measures to be adopted by the Government should have for their object to enforce respect for the principle of the independence of nations generally. General Cavaignac replied that the resolution, as modified by M. Joly, would stid amount to a declara tion of war, emanating from the Sovereign Consti tuent Assembly, and suggested the expediency of its being worded in less explicit terms. This being agreed to, General Cavaignac, M. Joly, and others withdrew to one of the Bureaux to prepare a new draft of the resolutions, and the sitting was sit! p mded. Shortly before post hour the General re ascended the tribune, and read the resolution he had prepared. It was to this effect :—" The National Assembly directs the serious attention of the Government to the events and movements of troops now taking place in Europe, and pre-oocupied with the dangers which menace the country, it calls on the Government to adopt the measures necessary for its energetic protection." 21. Joly found that resolution too weak, and persisted in its former order of the day. M. Odeon Barrot next rose and combated bath resolutions. The Siecle says :—" A report wait current last evening that a demonstration was to be made to-day, calling upon the National Assembly to grant an am nesty. Every demonstration is a danger and a snare; an abuse of numbers, a provocation to the employ ment of force. Let us, therefore, hope that the Go vernment will be sufficiently wise and moderate, without sacrificing anything that the preservation of public tranquillity may require, to place completely in the wrong the promoters and instruments of the proposed demonstration." We read in the National:—" A report is in circu lation that a manifestation is to take place to-day in favour of the amnesty. Any demonstration of the kind at this time could only serve interests hostile to the Republic. We have sufficient confidence in the good sense and patriotism of the people, to affirm that it will not give to reaction the pretext of which it is in need, and which it has sought in vain since the 29th of January last." FRANKFORT. In the sitting of the German Parliament of the 19th, the following resolution deposing the Archduke John from the Regency, and ordering another to be elected, was carried by a majority of 126 to 116 : " The Parliament resolves to elect immediately (if possible from among the German Princes) a Regent, who, according to Art. 3 of the Constitution, shall have the rights and duties of the head of the empire up to the period assigned in the resolution of the 4th of May. 2. The Regent shall, in the presence of the Parliament, take his oath upon the Constitution. 3. It is the Regent's duty to take immediate steps to the taking of the oaths on the Constitution by the civil and military officers of the individual states. 4. The Regent will take all necessary steps UR the elec tions to the new Parliament. 5. For the affectuation of sections 77 and 85 of the Constitution, the present As sembly will continue to exercise the functions of the fu ture Parliament. 6. The execution of this resolution ends, according to the law of the 28th of July, 1848, the activity of the Provisional Central Power, of which the right and duties will be conferred on the new Regent." The following resolution, proposed by Uhland, bad been previously agreed to : " If the Regency which the Parliament created were to attempt, as indeed it has been threatened by its Mi nisters, to deliver the power of Government created by the law of the 28th June, 1848, into another hand than the Central Power which the Parliament will appoint— the Parliament declares such an act to be void, and not binding on the German nation." TheDeuteehe Zeitung states that his Highness the Regent of Germany has been pleased to make arrange ments for his immediate departure from Frankfort. The same paper has letters from Carlsruhe, Mann heim, Rastadt, and Freiburg, of the 17th inst. The state of the capital of Baden was not altered since the last advices reached Frankfort. Armed bands con tinued to arrive from the country districts. BAD N. The Post Gazette of Frankfort publishes the fol lowing letter of the 17th inst., from Rastadt, in the Grand Duchy of Baden :—" The Austrian garrison has been obliged to leave the town by order of the Executive Commission. The Provisional Government sent to the Grand Duke, who is in Alsace, an invitation to return to his states, but he has demanded three days to reflect. The people who surround him render him bad service by recommending him not to return, for we constantly hear the soldiers and citizens say that they wish for their Grand Duke back. There is nowhere any talk of the Republic. The soldiers have refused to allow Messrs. Struve and Blind, the well-known republican leaders, to enter the town, and it is even said that M. Brentano, member of the Provisional Government, has caused them to be arrested." AUSTRIA. VIENNA, MAY 17.—The Wiener Zeitung of this day states that, in consequence of the transport of military, the train on the Northern Railway from Vienna to Presburg, and vice versa, will not run on that day (17th). The Wanderer of this day contains a pro clamation by his Majesty the Emperor to the Hungarians, dated Schonbrun, May 12, and countersigned by Prince Schwarzenburg. The pro clamation, after adverting to the lamentable fact, that a few lawless men had led away his faithful Hun garian subjects into open war against their Monarch, places before them the disastrous consequences of this crime, which visit not only the authors, but falls upon thousands and tens of thousands of guiltless heads. His Majesty then states that he has requested the assistance of his confederate ally the Emperor of Russia to restore legitimate order, and exhorts the Hungarians to regard the Russians, not as their foes, but as the friends of their country, who will aid them m making common cause against their enemies, and deliver Hungary from the ignominious yoke of native and foreign miscreants. The Journal du Commerce says that th e w h o l e of l the Imperial army is now making a movement from the frontier of Moravia to Oedenburg, to co mmence a new campaign with the aid of their Russian allies, Large bodies of the Russians have already arrived, and 25,000 of them will form the extreme let% wing of the army of operation, which, advancing from every point at the same time, will surround the Hungarian army in a semicircle, and will either beat or repel it. But unhappily it is not known exactly how the Hungarian army is at this moment disposed between Eperies And 13arbfield. It is generally believed that a very bloody engage ment will take place near Krosno. Travellers from Klauserburg state the Hungarian Republic was proclaimed in that city on the 29th April, and inaugurated by a religious ceremony. An order was at the same time issued, that all men between 18 and and 40 years of age should take up arms. The Saxons and Romans who refused to do this were obliged to leave the city. The rumour of the victory of Bem over the Rus sians in the defiles of Rothenthum, is fully confirmed, and this victory accounts for the non-appearance of the Russians in Hungary in such force as would enable them to undertake offensive operations, a non appearance of which the Vienna Ministerial journals bitterly complain. That both Russians and Aus trians have been defeated is evident from the fact that strong entrenchments are being thrown up round Vienna, and every preparation is made to enable the city to stand a siege. No one knows anything of the whereabouts of Jellachich ; and his army have disappeared from the scene in a marvellous manner, but bands of stray Croats occasionally reach Vienna, and the Hungarian General Penzel, against whom Jellachich was dispatched, contrives to make unresisted progress through the south of Hungary. Probably, when we get Hungarian accounts, we shall find that Penzel has defeated Jellachich and dispersed his forces. Benedek, who had been by Deckla into the Zips to cover Gallicia and the moun tain districts, has been defeated by Dembinski and driven back to Tyrnau, and the army of Dembinski occupy the positions of which B ene d e k was sen t t o get possession. Dembinski has concentrated his forces in excellent positions near th e moun t a i n c iti es of Shemnitz and Cremnitz, from whence he can 1 advance on Tokay, the Gallician frontier in Comorn. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, MAY 24, 1849. BELGIUM. BRUSSELS, 11IAy 21.—TheJournal des Flanders says :—" The King :received the deputation of the city of Ghent, consisting of the burgomasters and members of the committee of the festival, who came to invite their Majesties to attend the festivities which will take place on the 22d, 23d, and 24th of July, on occasion of the exhibition of the Flanders manufac tures. His Majesty promised to be present, with the whole of the Royal Family." The Independance states that the Chambers will close immediately after the discussion on the budgets of Finance and the Interior, which will be between the 10th and 15th June. The budget of way s an d means h as b een postpone d till November. The main argument for this was, the difficulty, under p resen t c i rcums t ances, o f obtaining the exact result of the income arising from several branches with any degree of certainty. Several members alleged that the discussion of the budget might give rise to political questions of the highest importance, in opposition to the Ministry, the replies to which could be more easily given at the commencement than at the close of a session. BOHEMIA. PRAGUE, MAY 14.—The Emperor of Russia is expected at Prague. His Majesty will probably ar rive there on the 19th, and remain there till the 22d ; after which he will set out for the army. A letter from Kalisch to the same effect says : The Emperor of Russia, who was expected on the 10th, will not arrive till the 16th at the camp of Lovitsch, and grand fetes will take place in honour of his presence. The Czar will here receive his august hosts. The object of the Emperor is to inspect the military at Kirchendorf.—Bohemian Gazette. RUSSIA. The St. Petersburgh Journal, of the 11th, has the following article on the manifesto of the Emperor on the intervention of Russian troops on behalf of Austria : " We publish to-day a new manifesto, which the Em peror has just addressed to his people on the occasion of the entrance of our troops into Gallicia. The principles and motives of this important measure are too clearly indicated to render it necessary to develope them here at any length. The intervention is based on two principal reasons ; the moral duty imposed on us by the formal demand of a Cabinet with which we are united by the engagements and transac tions of an old alliance; the positive right which we de rive from the necessity of providing on this occasion for our own defence. Whoever may take the pains of cast ing an eye over the whole of oar geographical situation, and upon the state of the populations along the Carper thian Mountains and the Danube, will find it evident that the Austrian monarchy cannot be, on this side, wronged, either in its possessions or political power, with out creating a violent perturbation in our relations with neighbouring Powers and in our most essential interests. These interests the breaking out of the Hungarian insur rection ha) put at stake. But within a short time, and by a concurrence of circumstances derived from the obligation accidentally imposed upon her, Austria has found herself called upon to watch over the security of her territory at i several points at once. This insurrection has suddenly be come more formidably developed, and the nature and ten dency of whioh wo own no longer mistake. From the borders of the Theis it has advanced rapidly to the shores of the Danube. Upper Hungary and Transylvania are al ready in its possession. With the focus of its action if has proportionably increased the circle of its revolu• tionary influence. The movement is no longer purely Hungarian; it has become half Polish. It serves as the basis of an insurrection much more extended, much more ambitious, which aspires to raise all the countries of old Poland, and to revive for us the disasters and the calamities of 1831. This new spirit manifested itself from the day when the Magyar camp became the ren desirous of the remnants of the Polish emigration, of those soldiers of anarchy which are to be found in all countries, in the service of all revolts, at the bottom of all conspiracies which have for their object to over throw the fundamental principles of society, and to substitute in their place the sanguinary dreams of the most hideous demagogy. More than 20,000 indivi duals belonging to this category are at this moment enrol led under the standards of the Hungarian army. They form regiments and entire organised corps. It is to their chiefs, and particularly to Bem and to Dembinski, that principally belong the conception of their plans of action and the direction of the warlike operations. Their projects against us are no longer conoesled; they are openly de clared. It is to carry the theatre of insurrection into Gali cia, and eventually into our Polish provinces. ,Their plots have already taken root in Gallicia and at Cracow. On the side of Transylvania they tend to paralyse, by exciting and encouraging the discontented Moldo.-Wallachians, the efforts which we are making in concert with Turkey to maintain calm in those principalities. In a word, they keep up a permanent state of agitation along the vast line of our frontiers. Such a state of excitement cannot be prolonged without endangering our situation. It calls for the most prompt and energetic measures on our part. It is, without doubt, to be regretted that Russia could not indefinitely maintain the passive attitude which she adopted in the origin of the European crisis. For more than an entire year she has shown no desire, manifested no impatience to engage precipitately in the struggle of the two principles of moral order and anarchy which continues to convulse society in Europe. As long as the social tempest raged at a distance, Russia remained calm and motionless, in presence of the agitation of the world. She saw war lighted up, institutions falling, and the forms of government changing, without departs ing from the neutrality, which she had imposed upon herself. But the hour in which it might be necessary to act had not escaped the foresight of the Imperial Government; and, if it at length departs, in spite of it self, from the expectant policy which it had maintained, it is not the less faithful to the spirit of its former de clarations. In fact, in announcing, on the occasion of the manifesto of the 14th March last, that it would scrupulously abstain from any intervention in the do mestic affairs of foreign countries, and that it would leave each free to modify, according to its own views, its internal constitution, it nevertheless took care to reserve to itself beforehand an entire liberty of action in the event of the revolutions of foreign states placing its own security in danger, or of the territorial equilibrium esta- blished by treaties on its frontiers should incur the risk of being deranged or modified, to the prejudice of Russia. Now that our security is somewhat menaced by what ii going on or preparing in Hungary, which appears evident from the efforts and avowed projects of the insurgents themselves, and that any attempt, which even for a time should on this side be made by a revolutionary Government on the integrity and unity of the Austrian Monarchy would be an attack upon the state of possession, which, in accord with the spirit of treaties, the Emperor regards as necessary to the balance of power in Europe, as also for the repose of his own states, the Imperial Government is bound to provide against the eventuality which it had foreseen, and the present situation is too allow pregna nt the gh; complications for it to be permitted t to fructify. By preventing these evils, and accelerating by the co-o p eration which w e i r t m Russia lends to her ally for the extinction of a fire, which threatens to extend from the Danube to t he Vistula, and which keeps in a state of ferment , a ll the nationalities in merely exercise the that vast Empire, Russia does not interest of self incontestable right conferred by the that of all pre servation; but she believes that she acts in powers who are the true fronds of peace, and that she will . society contribute to the maintenance of the repose of , and of the balance of power in Europe."

The news of the surrender of Palermo is con firmed by accounts which have been received in Paris. STATE OF TRADE. (From tho Manchester Guardian.) MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—The blockade of the Ger man ports, with the expected removal of which we have been so often mocked, still exists as a bar to the demand for yarn in this market; and the recent accounts from Germany, although in some respects rather more favour able than previous ones to the restoration of order, are yet far from being of a character to reassure the minds of merchants. There is, therefore, no improvement to notice in this department of our market; at the same time, however, no retrograde tendency is observable. except in 40's and 60's mule, which are hardly firm. In water twist, especially of the lower counts, a limited business is doing at last week's rates. Yarns for home manufac ture are without change. As regards goods, the dif ference betwixt light and heavy fabrics still characterises the market in much the same degree as before—the heavier the cloth the more depressed it is. The slight increase in the purchases of domestics during the past week has had no appreciable effect; and these ar ticles, as well as T cloths, are still as dull as ever. Still worse are fustians, the manufacturers of which have, to a great extent, either put their mills upon short time or stopped them altogether. On the other hand, there ap pears to be a somewhat increased inquiry for 40-inch shirtings, such as is usually perceived when the Indian mail is on the point of arriving. Printing cloths are steady, the middle and lower qualities being :in fair re quest. On the whole, our market has been fully as cheerful as it was last week ; and, for the most part, not less firm in the price of goods and yarns. ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—To-day has been one of the dullest markets we have had this year. Indeed but few buyers have attended, and those have purchased very sparingly. A failure has been announced to-day of a manufacturer, who has made principally for the Black water and Manchester markets. His liabilities are stated as varying from 5,0001. to 7,0001. His dealings have chiefly been in dyed goods, and hence most of the dyers in the town are creditors. It is said that very few of the woolstaplers have escaped, and these dealers are in a worse position than the dyers, who have a lien upon the goods in th e i r p ossess i on. Th e W oo l M ar k et remains inactive, and prices may be quoted rather easier. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—There is no alteration to report from last week's market. It is generally under stood that business throughout the district is in a fair and healthy condition. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—Everything remains much the same in wools, yarns, and manufactured goods; but the expectation of the speedy termination of the Danish dispute, has induced a more cheerful tone, both amongst spinners and manufacturers. LEEDS, TUESDAY.—No better market to-day ; but, if anything, rather worse than last Tuesday. Business in the warehouses continues very dull. PRICES OF SHARES IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM.

In the course of this examination they were observed to measure a portion of the road. lie had also discovered that Lane had been present at the police court during the inquiry before the magistrate, and, furthermore, that a very in timate acquaintance of the man Lane was a brother-in law of the prisoner, and had, in fact, come forward as one of his bail. The Learned JUDGE said the result of the inquiry was very much like what he had anticipated that it would be. The witness it was now proved had commit ted gross and wilful perjury in this case. Now, looking at this fact—that the defendant at the time he had committed this assault was one of the police force, and, moreover, that he was also on duty, and that he had called a perjured witness to speak in his behalf, with the full knowledge that what that witness was about to swear was altogether false, it was impos sible, under such a state of circumstances, but that the Court should visit the defendant with a punishment of some severity. The sentence upon him therefore was that he be imprisoned for the period of three months in the House of Correction, and that before his liberation he find security for his future good behaviour. William Langley, a well-known member of the "swell mob," was indicted for having robbed a lady of the name of Webber, of a purse containing three sovereigns, a appeared walking in the neighbourhood of St. John's half-sovereign, and three half-crowns. I were that the prosecutrix and a female friend wood on the evening of the 28th of April, and upon arriving at a lighter part of the road than they had just been traversing, the former observed some thing glisten by her side. She looked round with quickness, when she saw her purse, which was worked with steel beads, in the hand of a person whom she fully believed was the prisoner at the bar. As soon as she turned round the man ran off, leaving the purse behind him; but he was pursued by her friend, and even tually the prisoner was ove r t a k en an d secure d by a y oung man who joined in the pursuit. The identity of the prisoner was proved, and The jury thereupon returned a verdict of Guilty. The Learned JUDGE, in passing sentence, stated that the prisoner was a well known incorrigible thief, and was one of those whose practice it had been to lurk about dark corners and avenues on the watch for ladies. Ho was very much too perfect, and too much accomplished in his avocation to be allowed to remain in this country, and therefore the sentence upon him was transportation for ten years.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF QUEB A ' S BENCH, May 22. (Sittings in Banco, bef ore Lord Chief Justice DErimor, and Justices P - AT TESON, COLERIDGE, and ERLE.) THE QUEEN (EX PARTE COBBETT) V. THE KEEPER OF ___ THE QUEEN'S PRISON. A writ of habeas corpus had issued directing the keeper of the Q ueen ' s Prison to b r i ng up t h e b o d y of William Cobb e tt, a prisoner there. The prisoner was accordingly brought up this day, and the cause of his imprisonment returned to this court. Upon which— Mr. Cobbett moved the Court that he might be dis charged from custody, on the ground that he had been improperly removed to the class number one from the side of the prison where he had formerly been con fined. Be contended that he was now illegally con fined, inasmuch as the different classes formed so many different prisons, though disguised under the name of classes ; and his removal by the keeper from one class to another was a removal from one prison to another, and, having been made without warrant, was illegal, and entitled him to be discharged from custody altogether. Tile COURT decided that if the prisoner was pro perly in the custody of the keeper of the prison, the mere fact that he had been confined in a particular class, though improperly, would not entitle him to be discharged from custody. It appeared to the Court, however, that the applicant was properly confined in the first class, as directed by an Act passed in the last year, by which it was provided that the first class should consist, among others, of those who refused to file their schedule when ordered by fhe Insolvent Debtors' Court. The applicant was cne of that class of persons, and there was, therefore, no ground for granting the present application. The prisoner was thereupon remanded. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS and a Bench of Ma These sessio ns commenced on Tuesday morning a , flicks's liall, Clerkenwell-green, before the usual au thorities. The calendar contains a list of 68 cases for trial, of which 57 are indictments for felony. The Learned JUDGE, in addressing the grand jury, said that the calendar for these sessions showed one of those remarkable features in the history of crime which had hitherto puzzled all the ingenuity of those who had made the attempt to discover and to trace out its cause— a characteristic which appeared and disappeared in a manner as regular as it was unaccountable. They were now in the summer months, and the number of male and female prisoners was nearly equal; whereas in the winter months the proportion of the female to the male prisoners was usually about 8 or 10 to 50. Well, that was the customary proportion in and about the month of January, but as the warmer months approached that proportion gradually increased in each succeeding ses sions, until about August, when the maximum had been attained; but from that time the number commenced its diminution, and so the proportion proceeded until Christ mas had arrived, and th en the minimum of the troportion as between the male and female prisoners for trial ap peared. This was a singular progression in the history of crime. But so it was. U'. Jennings,: one of the police force, having at the last sessions been convicted of the commission of an in decent assault upon a little girl of the name of Win• grove, was this morning brought up for judgment, which had been postponed at the time of the trial, to afford an opportunity for an inquiry to be made by the pclice as ' to the nature of the connexion which might have existed, if such connexion had existed, between the prisoner and a man of the name of James Lane, who had appeared as a witness on his behalf. That witness on the trial had s worn th at h e was a total stranger to the prisoner. From the evidence it seemed that this man had been close to the spot on which the child had sworn that the offence had been committed, and the witness accounted for his having been there by stating that he was on his return from paying a visit to his niece, who was residing in Wellington -place, Vic toria-grove, and that he had just asked the prisoner the way to his own place of abode. He therefore said that that was the way by which the prisoner must have dis covered where he lived. 1,033 Henry Wood, a man about ilirty years of age, of rough exterior, with his breaat exposed, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with assaulting Richard Larncombe, a private in the 2d battalion of the Grena dier Guards, and attempting to force his way into the Royal Mint. Stringer, ac City policeman, 364, who took the pri soner into custody, said, the soldier who had been as saulted was not present, and that his sergeant, in the Tower, where the regiment to which ho belonged was stationed, refused to allow him to appear; on which the magistrate said the case must proceed without him, and that if his evidence was required he would soon enforce his attendance. John Brown, porter at the Royal Mint, was then sworn, and stated that the prisoner came to the gates that morning and wanted to obtain access to the interior of the building. lie asked him for what purpose; and the prisoner replied that there were persons in the Mint of a certain description, and he must see them, and the fact was that he had property there. The prisoner had first told the , sentinel on duty at the gates that he was a labourer in the Mint, but the soldier did not believe him. Witn , 3ss told the prisoner to leave the place, and with some difficulty removed him. About an hour afterwards the prisoner returned to the gates, and after vociferating aloud demanded admittance again, and said he was the principal witness in a smashing case. Wit ness told hi al he had better see the Mint Solicitor, and proceed to his office. The prisoner was driven away, and returned for the third time at twelve o'clock at noon, put his back against the principal entrance gate, and said he would push it open and force his way in. After some parleying with the sentinel, whom he assaulted, he was given into custody. The prisone r, on being called on for his defence, said in a low Vane that he was accused of shooting the Queen, and the police took him into custody, and used him very badly ; and caused him to be tried for high treason. Mr. YARDLEY—What is your nuns? Prisoner— Wood is my name, Sir. Mr. YARDLEY—When were you tried? Prisoner— This mornin g, Sir; and for shooting at the Queen. Mr. YARD LEY.—Where were you tried ? Prisoner —I don't know the place, Sir. Mr. YARDLEY.—Where do you come from ? Prisoner —From the Oommercial-road, close by, Sir. Henry Hobson, a shoemaker, of Grove-street, Com mercial-road .east, here stepped forward, and said the prisoner was. his brother-in-law, and that he had lost sight of him for nine months, until Monday night, at nine o'clock, 'when he called at bis house and remained during the ni:ght. He did not know how the prisoner had been li%ing, or where he had been staying. Police-con stable 33 II said the prisoner had been very recently in Ibis custody on charge of passing base coin, but the case wits not pressed. Another police-constable deposed that the prisoner was in custody a short time ago for very disorderly conduct, and that he did not think he was of sane mind. Mr. YARDIZEY said he had no doubt whatever the prisoner was not a fit subject to be at large, and inquired in what parish the Royal Mint was situate ; and was informed it was in St. Botolph Without, Ald gate, on which the magistrate directed that the parish officers should be sent for immediately; and they were requested to take charge of the prisoner, who was ul timately sent to the workhouse.

Witness, among other things, found two duplicates, one relating to a coat pledged with a pawnbroker named Rochfort, and the other fur a carpet bag pledged with a pawnbroker named Tinjay. Jahn Thomas, shopman to Messrs. Michell and Co., tailors, Regent-street—On the 23d of November witness was in the service of Mr. Sampson, tailor, Princes-street. On that morning the prisoner and a woman came into the shop and bought a great coat, and paid for it with a 101. note. The prisoner gave an order for another coat, and directed it to be sent to Lieutenant Anstead, of West bourne-villas, Westbourne-road. The coat was made and sent to the direction, but neither prisoner nor place could. be discovered. The great coat now produced was the coat sold to the prisoner. The 101. note with which the coat was paid bad the number on it of one of the 101. notes paid at the Lon don and Westminster Bank in exchange fJr Mr. Vokin's check. A great coat, pledged at Mr, Rochfort's, was produced. It was the same sold to the prisoner by the witness Thomas. The coat was pledged in the name of Herdley, and a witness named James proved that the prisoner and his wife took lodgings at her house in Marshall-street under the name of Herdley. William Brewer, trunk-maker, Oxford-street, preyed that a woman purchased a carpet bag, and offered a 10/. note in payment. Witness did not change the note, and the woman went out and returned with a 51. note, which witness changed. The note produced was one of the notes obtained from the London and Westminster Bank. The duplicate of the carpet bag was found at the prisoner's lodgings in Marshall-street. Police-sergeant Darter, A division, produced the record of a conviction for felony iii 1848 against the prisoner. The prisoner was fully committed. WESTMINSTER. Moira Finch, a well dressed woman of the town, was charged with stealing a gold watch, value 20 guineas, from the person of Mr. C. J. Faulkner, a gentleman re siding in Wilton-street, Belgrave-square. It appeared from the statement of the prosecutor, that he was walking along Piccadilly early on Sunday morn ing, after having spent the evening at the house of a friend, and took shelter from the rain, under a doorway, ti o o i n n . ed T h h y e t r h a e in pri h so a n v e in r, g w a it b h at w ed h , om h e h efell pro ceededinto where co h n t e v o ea was w r a s pri soner; but in consequence of another s ho w er th e y were towards his residence, accompanied by the again compelled to stand up. From the time at which the prosecutor had first conversed with the prisoner, a man continually walked up and down before them, evi dently with an intention of giving annoyance; and pro secutor having spoken to a constable, the man disap peared for a minute or two, but shortly returned, and having repeated his offensive conduct was given in charge. On their leaving the station the man, who was not detained, was in company with the constable, and the prosecutor having proceeded towards home, parted with the prisoner. On laying hold of his gold guard to lift the watch out of his waistcoat pocket, to his great astonishment he discovered that although the chain was perfect and the swivel at its end unopened, his watch had disappeared. He had looked at it on his way to the station, and it was safe at the time he was there, as could be proved by the inspector. The man who had been so trouble. some went a different way, and had no chance of com mitting the robbery, and the prisoner must have stolen the watch, as she was the only person who could pos sibly have taken it. Although prosecutor had been staying late at the house of a friend, he was not at all affected by liquor. Prisoner was taken into custody on Monday evening, but the watch was not found. The prisoner protested her innocence, and declared that the prisoner ought to b e p un i s h e d for giving her into custody. She added, " Although I'm an unfortu nate girl I'm not a thief ; and if you ask the gentlemen about St. James's-street they can prove it." Mr. BURRELL ordered her to be remanded till Friday. William Richardson, a man of genteel exterior, was brought up from Liverpool yesterday, in custody of Mr. Murphy, one of the Liverpool detective officers, and placed before Mr. Bingham, charged with having com mitted forgery. Mr. William Whittaker stated that he resided at West Keel, Lincolnshire, and was a general shopkeeper. In April, 1846, ho completed the purchase of some land at Bulingbroke, and left the deeds relating to it in the hands of Mr. Thimbleby, solicitor, at Spilsby. Witness never saw the prisoner before, and had had no transactions with him. Oa Wednesday last he came to London, and went to the office of the Tontine Assurance Company, in Pall-mall, in conse quence of an application made to him for payment of a note of 100/. Witness there saw a promissory note for I 100/, purporting to bear his name, in favo ur o f a M r . Richardson. Witness could swear he never signed that note. The signature was certainly something like his. Witness also saw two memorandums of a deposit of deeds, purporting to be signed by him. They were not in his handwriting. Mr. Thomas Thimbleby deposed that he was a solici tor, and resided at Spilsby, Lincolnshire. In April, 1846, the prosecutor left some deeds with him, and amongst them a conveyance of some land at Boling broke. On the 7th inst. he looked for those deeds and could not find them. On Tuesday week witness came to London with the prosecutor, and went to the Tontine Assurance Office, in Pall-mall, where he saw two ab stracts of three or four documents, purporting to bear the signature of the prosecutor. They were forgeries. From information they subsequently received, they proceeded to Liverpool, where the prisoner was apprehended. Mr. Henry Murphy, detective officer, proved taking the prisoner into custody at Liverpool on Monday night. There not being any further evidence ready, the pri soner was remanded till Thursday (this day). THAMES. the hours of ten and one, at the office of Mr. Hobson, Manchester. C.

INSTITUTE or GAS ENGINEERS We understand that a new college or institute is about to be established, having for its objects the collection and promulgation of all data relative to the existing methods of manufacturing and distributing gas; an examination of the most sci entific and practical methods of increasing its purity and illuminating power; of making it in the most ecio nomical manner; of getting rid of all noxious effluvium; and of so regulating the mole of supply that it can be conveyed to consumers at a cost much inferior to that which they are charged at present. Another important object is, the regular training and instruction of gts engineers, so as to reduce to one uniform system and science the diverse methods which at present prevail, leading as they do to extravagant and ill-directed expen. diture, and greatly enhanced cost of the article, equally to the injury of shareholders and consumers. When at is considered that not less than 15,000,000/. of British capital are invested in gas works, and that nothing can be more variable than the prices charged throughout the country, the importance of such an institute', which will assure to shareholders and the public en ascertained amount of scientific knowledge and practical skill on tl.e part of those to whom the expenditure of this immense and increasing capital is entrusted will b 3 readily ap preciated. The science of gas manufacture is, perhaps. yet in its infancy. Many improvements have certainly been made of late years, but owing to the expense of adapting old works to such improved methods, and other obvious personal reasons, these improvements have met with far from universal adoption. New alleged improve ments aro also daily suggested, which require scientific investigation, so that the practically good may be separated from those which are merely speculative and theoretical, and which would lead to a waste of capital. The projectors of this new institute are, we understand, Mr. A. Angus Croll, Engineer of the Coventry and Tottenham Gas Works and of the Great Central Col:- sumers' Company, and Professor Wilson, of the Ander sonian Institution, who have already secured the war m co-operation of some of the most eminent gas engineers in the kingdom.

The former was a barque of 295 tons, and a crew of 45 men; the latter a smack of 31 tons, and a crew of 19 men. A letter has been received by Mrs. Cravill, wife of Captain Gravill, of the William Ward, which contahns the further details of the loss of that vessel. It 13 dated the 7th instant, on board the Dublin, of Peter head, lat. 60 deg. 0 min. N. The writer states that the loss of the William Ward occurred on the 24th March, in a tremendous gale from the N.E., amongst heavy ice, in lat. 47 deg. 30 min. N., and long. 10 deg. 0 min. W. "Every precaution," observes Captain Gra vill, " had been used for her safety, having sent down topgallant-yards, and struck wizen-topmast, and close reefed the top-sails, on the morning of the above day, while it was yet calm. The gale commenced about three A.m. most terrific, for we had to stow away all but the close-reefed maintopsails. The frost wag very severe, with constant thick weather. The Traveller, of Peterh. ad was in company. We had all hands on deck attending to the braces, which wo could scarcely haul through the blocks for the frost. Many of the men's faces were frostbitten, and although not above the deck, it was impossible to make the men hear without the trumpet. Tho ship being amongst heavy ice, with a tremendous sea, about three ieg,; hove down upon the weather side of a heavy stream (of ice), with no possibility of getting clear. We wcre therefore compelled to let her go into it. Her larboard side was soon stove fore and aft, and before we got through the water was up to the hold beams. Our situ ation was now most alarming, there being no ship to be seen; we had lost sight of the Traveller some time before. Our condition was aggravated by the continued severity of the frost, and many of our men suffering under its inflictions, but we got the ship's head to the eastward, and all hands were employed at both pumes• We cut away the mainmast to keep the vessel from turning on her beam-ends. In this condition we continued until two days afterwards, when in the morn ing there was a cry, fore and aft, The ship's going down head first.' I gave orders to cut away the fore mast, which being done eased the ship greatly, and every exertion was made to keep her above water, the men dropping off from the pumps daily through fatigue and having their feet frostbitten; and so we remained from the 24th until the 29th, constantly at the punilis , and with the water sometimes in the cabin. Oa the morning of the 29th we could only muster twenty' eight at the pumps out of forty-five hands; but through the intervention of an ever-watchful Providence a ship hove in sight, and with difficulty made us out to be a wreck, as we appeared to be a large heap of lee , but the mizan-mast being still standieg, con' vinced the other ship's crew that it was a vessel in distress. They therefore bore down to us, and proved to be the Fairy of Dundee, Captain Robert Ks!, who with the feelings of a father and a friend, sent his boats immediately to our relief, and took us all from the wreck. The weather tproved moderate that morning, but, as the sea ran high, we were compelled to keep to the pumps up to th e l as t moment, until hie boats got alongside for us. We then got all the sick up as well as as we could, amounting to eighteen, at that time. Some we were obliged to carry on our backs to the side and lower into the boats, their feet being very much frost-bitten, and their legs wrapped up in pieces of blankets. It took the greater part of the day to get us all out, and the Fairy had only time to save three boats after we were all on board. The ship (the William Ward) was filling fast, and a gale increasing , before midnight the Fairy was obliged to come under a close-reefed maintop-sail and foresail, so that had we not been taken off before that storm, I greatly doubt whether any of us would have been left, as the poor men were giving up every hour. Both myself and the crew will never forget the kindness to the sick, and the attention paid to us all, by C a ptain tier, and his ship's company. I left the Sarah and Elizabeth a little more than a week ago, to come home by the Dublin, Captain Mackie. Ile has about 8,000 seals, about 115 tons. He had given up all hopes of ever getting out of the ice, as it is a heavy " pack," and there is no " young ice" to shelter them. Many ships are stove, and those that have escaped consider it a miracle. The smack Pledge is lost, but the crew saved. Some of them aro on board the Dublin. I am afraid there is another yea' sel lost, as 1 have been told of a main boom that was picked up. It appears to have been a brig. The smack Turk, Brown, had about 400 seals, but she is stove. I know very little about the Hull ships, but heard they were all badly off. The Sarah and Elizabeth bad 150 seals when I left her, but I hope they will all do well. The Traveller is very much stove, as are also the Resolution and many more. lam sorry to say mall of our men have lost the toes off their feet, and I can afraid some of them will lose their feet. Poor Arthur had lost five toes when I last saw him. I intend land• ing at Shetland, as I think we shall be better able to get home. Young Lee, Smith, Tether, and Robinson are with me." A letter has also been received from the mate of the Pledge, and is we believe, th e on l y commun ication which has arrived from that vessel. The master is still at Greenland. It is dated as the above, and, after briefly stating the loss of the Pledge on the 28th ult., contains the following particulars, ad. , dressed to the owner :—" Sir—l have to inform you of the wreck of the Pledge, in Greenland. On the 12th of April it was blowing a heavy gale, and we were completely disabled, having no seam from ice-knees down to keel, no main -boom, no mainsail (the mainsail having blown to ribbons), an d water b y this time in the lower bed cabins, and gaini ng on us. T he Traveller o f Peterhead, being in company with us, was under close reefed topsails. We hoisted our ensign to the Traveller, and the captain sent two boats and took us on board. 00 the 28th of April we came on board the Dublin, of Peter head (mate, second-mate, cook, and rest of the crew), leaving the master and two boys till morning. It W 5 then blowing fresh, and coming on thick ; during the night we lost sight of the Traveller, and left the master. —Your obedient servant, HEittRY TROTT, late mate o f the Pledge."—Hull Advertiser.
