PASSENGER TRAFFIC WITH IREL AND: - • LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY.--A document has been issued by the Lords of the Privy Council, enforcing a'new code of regulations in relation to the carriage of pas sengers between Ireland and the British shores. The communication is dated from the Council ChaMber, Whitehall, August 7, and contains the following clauses : 1. The number of deck passengeis to be carried by a paddle steamer, having no cargo on deck, shall be one passenger to ,every ton of 'the builder's tonnage.. " 2: The number to be carried by a paddle steamer, having cargo on deck, but none of it stowed abaft the paddle-shaft, shall be one passenger to every regis tered ton. "3. The number to be carried when cargo (not live animals or poultry) is stowed abaft the paddle shaft, shall be three passengers to every two square yards of clear space abaft the paddle-shaft. " 4. The number to be carried when live animals or poultry are stowed abaft the paddle-shaft shall be fixed with reference to the arrangement of the vessel and cargo, so as to provide, as nearly as possible, two square yards for every three passengers, in a part of the vessel separate from the cattle and live stock. " 5. Screw steamers, in which the deck passengers are allowed to go below, and are accommodated with space on the lower deck for one-half their numbers, or on that on which the bulwarks are raised, and a spar deck constructed so as to afford protection to the passengers on deck, shall be licensed to carry the same number of passengers in each case as paddle steamers. " 6. Screw steamers in which these provisions are not made shall be licensed to carry only one passenger to every four tons of the registered tonnage., "7. The prop cation of passengers to be carried in the months of November, December, January, Feb ruary, and March shall be two-thirds the number al lowed in the other months." Captain Denham has also addressed a memorandum to the owners of steamers employed in the convey ance of passengers, recommending additional regula tions, as follows : " Custom house, Liverpool, Aug. 10. "I am commanded by the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade to strongly impress upn the owners of steam-vessels employed in the convey ance of passengers the propriety of making some provision for the health and cleanliness of those on board, by furnishing them with a sufficient supply Of, tarpaulings to protect them from the Weathei, and from the washing of the sea, and also by providing • water-closets for their use. "Although my Lords have not thought it neces sary to make these provisions compulsory, as tlif . y, might do, by refusing certificates till they shoulti a be complied with, they nevertheless attach great 'im portance to them, and will bear the subject in mind with a view to future legislation, should they find, by experience, that a neces*itv exists for more strinplit provisions to compel the adoption of these reasonable measures.

Capital £500,000. Empowered by Act of Parliament. This Institution embraces important and substantial advantages with respect to Life Assurances and Deferred Annutics. Policies Issued by this Society have a twofold advantage :—provi sion for the family of the Assured, and an augmenting pecuniary available resource to himself, if needful, while! lying. The Assured has, on all occasions, the power to borrow, without expense, or for feiture of the Policy, two-thirds of the Premiums paid. DIVISION OF PROFITS. . . . . The continued prosperity of the Society has enables the Directors at the Annual Meeting, held on the 10th of May, IS4B, to declare a sixth bonus, varying from 27 to 65 per cent. on the Premiums paid en each Policy effected on the profit scale.

By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or, at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, twe thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives. The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan tages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure through this Society. imanutty. -4c £ s. d. 20 47 16 30 26 15 10 40 13 19 9 Cash. 1 Policy. £ 8. d £ .. d. 391 11 0 466 0 0 221 0 0 261 0 0 115 8 0,136 6 0 11.

The barony and estate of Islay, comprising the island of Islay and small adjacent islands is in the same latitude as Edinburgh and Glasgow, and is one of the richest and most productive properties in the west of Scotland. It contains about 140,000 acres, of which 34,000 are arable, the rest being luxuriant pasture. The present rental of this magnificent property amounts at present to 20,00014 but a Government grant of 30,0001. is now being ex pended in drainage an I improvements. The rents are periodically and legitimately increased as the leases fall in, and It is evident that such a property must, under improved agriculture, afford a much larger return. The purchase, it is expected, will be effected for about 500,0001., and it is proposed to raise a capital for this purpose, and contingent expenses, of 600,000/., in 12,000 501. shares, each shareholder to nominate a life, and the whole body of nominees to be insured oat of the rental, so as to secure the repayment of his subscription to every shareholder whose nominee lapses. The remainder of the accumulated rental is to be divided every ten years amongst the surviving shareholders, the last survivor to inherit the estate. On the basis of 12,000 policies, in respect of the 12,000 nominees, it is further contemplated to ingraft the general business or a life assurance company, so as to secure an annual dividend of profits. Thus it will be seen that every person taking a share in the Ton tine, will, under any circumstances, receive back the amount of his investment out of the assurance fund, and will also, by way of in terest on his shares, receive an annual dividend out of the profits of the general life assurance department (and the basis and guarantee indicated cannot fail to make this branch most extensive and lucra tive) ; he will, moreover, participate, every ten years hls nominee survives, in the accumulated and constantly improving rental ; and, in the event of his nominee being the last survivor, will become the absolute owner, in fee simple, of the entire estate. It is also to be observed that, as the nominees diminish in number, the marketable value of the shares will year after year be greatly en hanced. The principles of the proposed Tontine have been maturely con sidered by F. G. P. Nelson, Esq., the eminent actuary of tke Me dical and Invalid Assurance Company, and receivt.d his entire ap probation. _ _ The estvte is to be vested in three trustees, resident in Scotland. The affairs of the Society shall be conducted by a board of seven directors in Scotland, commuideating with a board of correspondence in London. Two general meetings shall be held in Scotland in the months of June and December.

THE BERMONDSEY MURDER. APPREUENSION OF MARIA MANNING. The capture of Maria Manning (alias Rue), the female charged with having being concerned in this horrible crime, has been effected. Thanks to the energy and activity of our detective police force in the first instance, and secondly, the great invention of the age—the electric telegraph—the woman was arrested yesterday in the city of Edinburgh, with a large amount of property belonging to the deceased, Patrick O'Connor, in her possession. The circumstances under which the arrest took place may be thus briefly related :—Among the offi cers employed to trace the suspected murderers was Sergeant Shaw, of the detective force. From in quiries made in the neighbourhood of Manning's residence, this officer ascertained beyond a doubt that Maria Manning left Minver-place on the after noon of Monday, the 13th instant, in a cab, taking with her three or four large boxes. To find out the driver of this vehicle was the next difficulty, and all the officer's efforts to accomplish, this failed until Monday evening, when, in consequence of infor mation he obtained, Shaw sought out and disco vered a man named Kirk, driver of the Hackney cab, No. 1,186. Tfiis man, on being questioned, admitted that he had been called from the stand in Joiner street, Southwark, to take up a fare in the neigh. bourhood of New Weston-street. He was unable to describe the exact spot, nor could he state any parti culars as to his fare, except that it was a female of very respectable exterior. On being taken to Min ver-place by the officer, Kirk at once recognised the house No. 3, as the place where he took up his fare, and he then detailed with great minuteness the route she was driven by himself. He said that when she left Minver-place she had with her three large boxes and a carpet bag. She first directed him to drive to the London-bridge station of the South-Eastern Railway, but, just as he was turning into the road leading from the Borough to the terminus, she pulled the check-string and bade him draw up his cab at the door of Mr. Ash, stationer and printer, of N 0.5, Wel lington-street, Borough. Having done so, the woman alighted and went into the shop, where, it bas been ascertained, she puachased half a dozen plain white cards. A— pen and ink having been handed to her at her request, she wrote directions on four of the cards. Upon one she wrote as follows :—" Mrs. Smith, passenger to Paris. To be left till called for." Upon another. " Mrs. Smith, passenger, to be left till called for ;" and upon the two other cards it is believed that only the words, " Mrs. Smith, passenger," were written. Having paid Mr. Ash for the cards, the woman re-entered the cab and desired Kirk to drive her to the South- Eastern station. Arrived here, she desired him to call a porter belonging to the railway, and upon one presenting himself, she requested him to obtain some tacks in order to fasten the direction cards upon her boxes. The porter presently did so, and on his return she alighted from the.cab, and pointing out the two largest boxes desired the man to append the two directions first quoted, namely, " Mrs. Smith, pas senger to Paris, to be left till call for ;" and " Mrs. Smith, passenger, to be left till called for." This was done as directed, and the two boxes, by the woman's desire, were conveyed into the luggage-office, with directions that they were to be taken care of until called for. The woman then re-entered the cab, and was driven by Kirk to the London and North- Western Railway station, where she alighted about a quarter to six o'clock. Kirk saw her luggage, con sisting of one box and a carpet-bag, taken into the station, and having been paid his fare drove away, and saw no more of the woman. These circumstances having been communicated to Mr. Haynes, the superintendent of the detective police, that officer at an early hour yesterday morn ing proceeded to the terminus of the South-Eastern Railway, where he fortunately found the boxes exactly as described, no inquiry having been made for them since they were deposited on Monday week. The suspicions previously entertained by Mr. Haynes now ripened into certainties, and he at once sought an interview with G. S. Herbert, the secretary to the company, to whom he explained the whole matter, and expressed the necessity of examining the con tents of the boxes. Mr. Herbert conferred with two or three of the directors, who happened to be at the station, and the 'Commissioners of Police having backed Mr. Haynes's application by a request from themselves to the same effect, the boxes were con veyed into the secretary's office, and there forced open. The first glance at each disclosed a quan tity of female wearing apparel, which upon exami nation, proved to be marked with the name of Maria Rue, the maiden name of Mrs. Manning. A further examination discovered a quantity of ar ticles belonging to the deceased Patrick O'Connor, and several letters writen by him to the supposed murderess. Mr. Haynes now immediately proceeded to the London and North-Western station, with the view of tracing Maria Manning. His inquiries here were fortunately most successful—in brief, we may state, that he ascertained a female passenger, whose luggage was marked with the name of Smith, had left the Euston station on the morning of Tuesday, the 14th instant, by the 6.15 A.M. train, having booked her place through to Edinburgh. There could be no longer any doubt as to the direction the suspected party had taken, and Mr. Haynes, at ten minutes to one o'clock, telegraphed through to Edinburgh direct, addressing the superintendent of the city police, and informing him of the circumstances above detailed, with a full description of the suspected party. Mr. Haynes had scarcely arrived at Scotland-yard, on his return, when a messenger from the telegraph office reached there, bearing intelligence that Maria Manning had been arrested upon the information forwarded by Mr. Haynes, by Mr. Moxey, the chief officer of the Edinburgh constabulary. The activity displayedby this officer may be judged of from the fact that scarcely an hour elapsed between the message having been sent, and the reply communicating the gratifying in telligence of the woman's arrest. At a later hour last evening another telegraphic message was received from Edinburgh, communicating the result of a search made of the prisoner's person and luggage, from which it appears that the following property was found upon her :—Seventy-three sovereigns, one 501. note, and six 10Z. notes, five of these latter bearing the numbers advertised yesterday as having been paid to Manning en Saturday, the 11th instant, on the presentation of one of the deceased's cheques. In addition to this money, there was also found in the woman's possession all the missing scrip of the Sambre and Meuse, and Boulogne and Amiens Rail ways, known to have been in the possession of the deceased, and some articles of wearing apparel belonging to, him, In obedience to instruc tions sent down by telegraph, Mr. Moxey has left Edinburgh in company with his prisoner, and may be expected-to arrive , in town this morning. The accused will, upon 'bier arrival, be placed in custody at' the Gardner's-lane Police-sta tion, and brought up to' the chief police-office for examination probably to-morrow- morning. The boxes belonging' to her have been brought from the South-Eastern Railway station to Scotland-yard, where their contents underwent a second examination last night. A great deal of excitement prevailed in the neighbourhood of Scotland-yard . last " evening, in consequence of 'a report that the accused ha'd arrived in London, and a crowd of persoila surrounded the station up to a late hour. - Manning is still at large, and we fear we must add that no clue to his retreat has been discovered. There can be no doUlat, however, that he has very little money in' his possession ; and this circumstance, it is hoped, wilt have the effect of destroying all chance . of his escape. LATEST PARTICULARS. HALF-PAST' ELEVEN P.l%ll — The police have just received the following telegiaPhic message :—" Is Manning in custody—send ha* : an immediate an swer." It is inferred from this that the,„.Edinburgh police have some clue , to a person answering his description. (Br ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) EDINBURGH, Tuespa.r.—,A„ person, who there is every reason to believe is Or the parties concerned in the atrocious murder at Bermondsey, was appre hended in Edinburgh, on Tue - sday, -- by Mr. M oxe y, superintendent of police. On : ,Monday evening Mr. Mosey received a communication per electric tele graph from Inspector Haynes, Strand, London, and in the course of his inquiries consequent thereon he got such information as induced him to call, along with a criminal officer, at a respectable lodging -house in Addington-place, Edinburgh, on Tuesday fore. noon. Upon inquiry there for Mrs. Smith, the name which it was understood Mrs. Manning had assumed, he was shown into a room, in which he found a well dressed woman reading a newspaper of the 20th inst., which gives an account of the mUrder and a descrip tion of the parties supposed to have committed it. From the appearance of this person, Mr. Moxey at once concluded that he had . fciind the party of whom he was in search —the supposed murderess, Mary de Reux, or Manning. After some conversa tion, Mr. Moxey charged her as being the person of that name accused of the murder of Patrick O'Connor. This she denied; but 'Mr. Moxey having taken pos session of and searched her luggage, had his previous belief of her identity fully confirmed by finding amongst her wearing. apparel the' vibOle of "the scrip described 'in the advertisement regaiding the murder. Besides other sorip,• her also found is her pOssessioti• documents proving beyond a doubt that she was the wife of Frederick George Manning, together with 75 sovereigns, and the following Bank of - England notes :—One 501. note, No. 11,037 ; and six 101. notes, Nos. 67,372, 67,37'3, 67,374, 67,375, 67,376 and 78,378; and one 51. note, No. 20,051. The prisoner was at once taken to the police office along with all her luggage, and will on Wednesday be committed to prison, preparatory to her being re moved to London., No,information of her husband has been obtained. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Liverpool, Aug. 20. CIVIL SlDE—(Before Mr. Justice WISIITMAN STANSFIELD V. SOWLEIt. This was an action on the case fur an alleged libel on the plaintiff, published in the Manchester Courier of April 21, of which the defendant is the registered proprietor, to which the defendant pleaded its truth as a justification. Mr. Martin, Q.C., and Mr. Atherton appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Sergeant Wilkins, Mr. Cromp. ton, and Mr. Sowler for the defendant. It appeared from the opening of the Learned. Counsel, and from the evidence, that on the 10th of April last a parish meeting was called of the rate payers of Burnley, for the purpose of electing the, churchwardens and sidesmen for the parish. In the, parish is a chapel of ease, at nabergharn Eaves, and a differenCe had for some time existed between the Rev. Mr. Master and his parishioners as to the appoint ment of a churchwarden for Habergbam Eaves, and on its being proposed to elect a churchwarden, tt.reso lution was moved by the plaintiff to the effect that the meeting should be adjourned to that day twelve months. This resolution the Rev. Mr. Master, who was in the chair, refused to put to the meeting, and . a disturbance ensued, a person named Emmott being proposed to the chair.' This disturbance was put an end to by Mr. Master commencing Divine service,and the meeting adjourned to the churchyard. An ac count of these proceedings was published in the. Blackburn Standard, which was copied by the Man chester Courier, and commented on by the editor, and it was of these comments that the plaintiff complained as libelous, and calculated to injure his character. The article complained of was as follows:-- " DISGRACEFUL PROCEEDINGS IN BCUNLEi "We have elsewhere copied from the Blackburn Standard a'report of certain proceedings at the annual vestry held in Burnley'Church on Easter Ttiesday. For a detail of the circumstances that gave' rise to the dis :graceful scene we must refer our readers to the report itself, which bears internal evidence of having been drawn up carefully and accurately. The chief actor Ap pears to have been a Mr. George Stansfield, a barrister, formerly connected with the northern circuit, and now a mazistrate of the county, carrying on the business of a hanker. A short extract from the report will show that the conduct of this Mr,,Stansfield rivals in virulence the conduct of the most unscrupulous, of. Mr: Bright's fol lowers in the parish of Rochdale. A series of illegal propositions are made to the meeting by Mr. Stansfield, to which the Rev. R. M. Master, the excellent incum bent of Burnley,., with manifest propriety, refuses to listen." The report then goes on to say : "On this. Mr. Stansfleld again proposed an amend ment, to the effect that as Mr. Master had not acted with impartiality in refusing to ,put the amendment to the meeting, he do now vacate the chair, end that a per son of the name of Emmott, a dissenter, do take it. Not withstanding Mi. Master declared immediately he should do no such thing as leave the chair, Mr. Stansfield put his amendment to the meeting, without giving any one time to make any remark, calling for a show of hands on his behalf, but never asking whether any one was opposed to it. This movement was received with acclamation by the Chartists, who immediately called upon Emmott to take Mr. Master's place (the steps around she font), se conding their words by acts illustrative of their political creed, forcing Emmott, nothing loth, up towards Mr. Master, and threatening to lay violent hands on the latter gentleman to dispossess him of his place, by such cries as Pull him down!' Throttle him!' Seize him by the legs!' &c. Mr. Master's friends immediately rushed to his support, and drove back his assailants. In the melee great uproar was made and several blows were struck. This continued for some time, during which the chairman sent for the police, and at the solicitation of his friends called for a show of hands on behalf of Messrs. W. and J. Smith. There being no objection made, he declared them duly elected, and then dissolved the meeting. "During the greater part, if not the whole, of this riot, Mr. Stansfield.stood by and never attempted either by word or deed to check it. He denounced the dissolution of the meeting as illegal, asserting that Mr. Master had lost his authority over it ; and when charged with advising, the rioters not to leave the church, did not deny it, though it was then time for the commencement of Divine service. Mr. Stansfield intimated to Mr. Master that he approved of the police being sent for, but when they came he pre vented them from acting according to Mr. Master's wish in clearing the church. . Oa this Mr. Master intimated that he should immediately commence Divine service, and that he should hold any one guilty of disturbance in ' the church amenable to the law. On his entering the reading desk Mr. Stansfield deliberated a few moments, and then walked quietly off, followed by the rioters. " Mr. Stansfield's position as , a magistrate and a banker would bespeak his respectability. As for his degree of barrister-at-law, we suspect it was always honorary,' in every sense of the word, and that, although he was a member of this circuit, he was a' silent' member, being one of the briefless' fraternity. If our memory do not fail us, he is the person who, a few years a g o, a t Lancas ter, broke faith with Mr. Baron Alderson, and drew down the just rebuke of that high-minded and most able judge, by failing to bring, into court a certain document which he had promised his Lordship to go for, and send ing instead a stupid note to the judge, full of ignorance, presumption, and disrespect. , The, circumstance must be well known to the bar of this circuit.", The libel proceeded : " What are we to think of a well-dressed demagogue, professing to be a Churchman, who could not only coun tenance but counsel the brutality which was exhibited towards the Rev. Gentleman, who, we have good reason to know, conducted himself with remark‘able temper and forbearance in the discharge of duties which the law compels him to perform, and who is esteemed by all classes, but the bad, in the neighbourhood in which his lot is cast." Fie did not complain of being termed a " briefless barrister"—that was no imputation upon any man ; but he did complain of being accused of having, as a magistrate and banker, broken his promise to Mr. Baron Alderson, and, instead of sending to his Lord ship a document which he , ' 'had promised to send; of having written to him "'a stupid note, full of ignor ance, presumption, and disrespect." The facts of that imputation werethese :—:Two men were indicted at the Lancaster spring assizes for 1847 for haVing conspired, to cheat the Yorkshire Insurance Com 7 pany, by sending in a larger claim for compen sation fer loss at a fire than they were. entitled to. This policy had been deposited with Mr. Stansfield, as a banker; as a security. To it . prove the charge, of conspiracy was necessary to produce the policy of insiirance.' Mr. Stansfield was not subpoenaed to produce it, but some. one said that he had it;' upon: WhiCh Mr. Baton Alderson 'asked where he W4B. Ile was then sitting in the Magis trate's INA in the'aiSiz - e.: court, and his Lbrdship or= dered him to be examined; and he then said that had the deciknent in hiS possession, but lie ; lle4,lieen requested ,by the,prisoner s Attornay, not to produce it, and net havipg• reoeiiedany,Sulipcena he had not brought it; but the policy was. in Lancaster.. Mr. Baron Alderson said to Air. Stansfield in an angry manner, " Do you come here, sir, to defeat the ends of justice ?" Mr. Stansfield said, " Certainly not." Mr. Baron Alderson then said; "Then go and fetch ir, sir." Mr. Stanifieldthedleft thd court under the impulse of the inOrkent,tUt'not'laeineyciilid . ,tO duce the document,' - mid irritated by -- '111i; Baron Alderson's manner and observations, he addressed to his Lordship the follo*hleboie, ivhi,,ch was , ! the' " stupid notefull of: ignorance , presumption, And disrespect"—ailuded to _ _ " Lancaster, Feb. 21, 1848. " My Lord,--Your Lordship is Pleased• -to- impute to me in open court a desire to defeat_ the.ends of criminal justice, and to threaten me. leame, my Lord, to Lan caster without subpoena from anybody, as, I believe, to promote the ends of justice, not to defeat them; and will not affect eau one shilling_ whether the jury give a verdict in favour of one side or, the other, neither directly or indirectly.. I shall .not submit, my Lord, to such treatment, .or to your further imputations. I, therefore, beg leave to, decline further attendance at.the assizes. " I am, my Lord, your obedient servant, " GEORGE STANSFIELD. " The Hon. Mr. Baron Alderson," That note, the Learned Counsel for the plaintiff said, was a very proper note, and such a one as he would have himself written under the same circumstances. Mr. Baron Alderson had no right whatever to order him to produce the policy. If the policy were re quired there was a proper legal course to take, by serving Mr. Stansfield with a subpoena duces tecum to insure its production. On the publication of the libel complained of, Mr. Stansfield's attorney wrote to Mr. Sowler, requesting to know who the writer was. In answer to that Mr. Sowler offered to give equal publicity to Mr. Stansfield's account of the transac tion. This answer not being satisfactory, the present action was brought. On the part of the defendant, on cross-examinati on of the witnesses called to prove the disturbance at the parish meeting and what took place in court at Lancaster, it appeared that several' of the persons present at the'pariSh meeting Were' Chartists, and the [PRICE SD. plaintiff clapped one of them (Emmott) on the back, and told him to take the chair, and that at -the trial at Lancaster, Mr.. Baron Rolfe, on being consulted by Mr. Baron Alderson, said that under the circum stances, parole evidence of the policy ought to be admitted, and that Mr: Stansfield Was liable to an attachment for contempt of court for the course he had taken. Mr. Serjeant WILKINS, on these facts, contended, in an able speech, that each part of the libel was justified. His LORDSHIP having summed up, The jury retired, and after a short absence, found a verdict for the defendant. The case was not -concluded until six o'clock, having occupied the whole day. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice PATTESON) William Jabez. Davies was indicted for having feloniously concealed and embezzled a part of his . estate with intent to defraud his creditors and in violation of the bankrupt laws. Mr. Mond and Mr. : Pollock ,conducted. the prose cution; the prisoner was defended by Mr. cobbett. It appeared that the prisoner was foiineily a plumber and "glazier at Manchester, and had peti titioned the Court of Bankruptcy in Manchester, and had been adjudged a bankrupt; .He had afterwards concealed and embezzled some of his goods. The indictment charging the offence. did not allege that Abe prisoiner liad'passed his examination, nor that he had ever been examined before' the commissioner., For those omissions the Learned Counsel for the defence demurred to the indictments, relying on' the Case of "Rex v. Walters," as,_until the bankrupt bad' been examined before th,e; Commissioner, and had had the' opportunity of. discovering his property, he cuuld, not be indicted l for fraUdulently . conceali n g it. The' 'Learned Counsel 'for the prosecution contended' that ' the section of the statue sth ,ana 6th, Yictc, creating the offence, did not !equire that , the'4l,, bankrupt ; should have been examined; and that the offence w 0 i complete without t. Ills LORDSHIP, in .giving judgment, supported this construction of the statute, and g ave judgment for the Crown on the demurer.. • The • prisoner was then called onto plead over to • the felony, and pleaded • Sentence was deferred. ' e 1,1/111 . ~! POLICE INTELLIGENCE. • GUILDHALL. William- Isaac Fitch, - a traveller in . the service of Messrs.. Morgan Martyre;-.and Co., wholesale:stag, tioners, was placed at the bar charged before Sir Peter Laurie with embezzling various sums of money to the amount of 2001. and upwards. Mr. France, of Godlimin- street, solicitor, attended to prosecute, and stittedfthat he only intended to ad duce such evidence against the prisoner as would justify the Alderman in grantingia remand. They had found out defalcations to the amount of 2001., and-. there was little doubt that if time were given others, to a,still greater extent would be fliund. It would seem that the prisoner's practice' 'was, that, having kept some moneys back, when he got other sums of money, he then paid up the old amounts. Mr. Frederick George, of the firm of Morgan, Alartyre, and Co., No. n 2, Farringdon-street f said the prisoner has been eight years in the'firm as a town traveller. It was his duty, as well as that of others, to enter daily into the cash-book all sums of money , they received. Sir PETER LAURIE—Then no running account was allowed. For in all cases of embezzlement the pri soners attempt to make that their defence. Mr. George said such was not the - case. They were bound to enter the amounts received in the cash-book every day. On Saturday last, in conse quence of a letter written to a Mr. Trimming, re specting his account, and requesting payment, as the arrears had- been going on longer than usual, that gentleman called, and produced the receipts which he held in his hand. The first invoice for goods was dated Oct. 13, 1848, and encled Dec. 12, 1848. On. the 17th of February, 1849, there is a receipt in the prisoner's handwriting for 20/., signed W. Fitch. On the same paper, dated the sth of March, there is another receipt of " By cash 11/. 12s. 6d., discount 165.; for Morgan, llartyre, and Co.; signed W. Fitch." The next invoice began Dec. the 26th, and ended 27th of February, 1849, and amounted, for goods delivered, to 301. 3s. Upon that invoice there was a receipt also, in the following terms :—" By cash, for Morgan, Martyre, and Co., 301. 3s. W. Fitch." Sir P. LAURIE—Did he pay the money on those days ? Mr. George—He did; but what he paid was to settle other quarters' accounts that ought to have been paid. Mr. France said, that if the case was, adjourned there would be plenty of cases against the prisoner, for the firm had ascertained that morning that he had received no less a sum than 1041. on the 4th of Au gust, which be had not accounted for. He therefore hoped the Alderman would grant a remand. Sir P. LAURIE said the embezzlements appeared to be so extensive, that he; should . remand the prisoner for a week ; in the meantime perhaps the - prosecutors might make more important discoveries. The prisoner, who wept much while at the bar, declined saying anything, and was conveyed to the Compter. I. BENEFITS Secured en attaining the age of 65, by an Annual Premium of 21. 128.

CLERKENWELL. John Davies, a ruffianly looking fellow, dressed as a navigator, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Cotnbe, charged by Mary Stevens; a married woman, residing at No. 1, Dorset-street; Balls-pond, Islington, with having commited a brutal assault upon her. The prosecutrix, who was supported into court, in consequence of the_ injuries she received, exhibited a most frightful countenance, having her eyes dreadfully . swollen and blackened, and her, nose broken. With difficulty she stated that yesterday morning the pet: soner met her, and challenged her with having robbed him on the previous night. She denied the charge, when he swore that she was the same person, and threatened that he would have her life,, on which he struck her several violent,blows on the head and face, and kicked her on the head, legs, and body, until she was left for dead, and she knew no more of what hap pened until she was attended by a surgeon at her own residence. Mr. COMBE inquired whether she knew anything of the prisoner ?—Witness replied in the negative, with the exception that ,he lived„in the same neigh bourhood as herself. Prisoner (sullenly)—l met her last night, and she robbed me of 7s. 6d. I work hard'for my money. The prosecutrix positively denied this, ,and pro duced several witnesses to prove that she was at home her family all the night before. . Sergeant Judd, 44 N, said that he was bringing -some prisoners to this court from the station house at Islington yesterday morning, when he saw the pri sorer beating and kicking her, after which he seized tier head and dashed it against a wall.
