THE BILAKLA➢A RAILWAY CORPS. Yesterday afternoon, Lord Henry Clinton and a large party of gentlemen assembled at Blackwell, to witness the departure of the second London detachment of the men engaged by Messrs. Peto and Bette, to construct the r klaya to the trenches before the heights i around lway fromSeb i3sla Sebastopol. They go out in the fine new vessel th e Hesperus, 800 tons, built in the Tyne, by Messrs. Marshall, and seemingly in every way admirably adapted l er this particular purpose, combining compactness with great capacity. Her engines are 150 horse-power, aid she made the trip from the Tyne to the Thames in 30 hours, her average speed per hour being 10{ knots. She carries full burden, 800 tone of rails, sleepers, and other ma terials, with fuel for twelve days, but presents no ap pearance whatever of being unduly laden ; and, should the weather be but moderately favourable, it is antici pated that she will reach Malta without stopping at ibraltar to coal, and accomplish the voyage to Bala klava in three weeks. She is commanded by Captain Crookshank, an able and experienced officer, well ac quainted with the seas he is about to navigate, and on Thursday will be followed by the Prince of Wales and the Earl of Durham, the following carrying 80 and the latter 50 navvies. The number now taken out by the Hesperus is 80, nearly all young men in the prime of vigorous manhood, and presenting all those evidences of stalwart strength and endurance for which their class is proverbial. They are amply provided with warm and durable clothing of the most suitable description, and, apart from a little of the confusion and excitement con sequent upon their first experience of a sphere so entirely new to them as that of the deck of a steamer, they ap peared in the best possible spirits, and thoroughly satis fied with everything that had been done for them. A large crowd assembled en the Brunswick Pier to witness their departure. Shortly after two o'clock the men were mustered on the fore deck in their new clothing to hear addresses from Captain W. S. Andrews, managing di rector of the North of Europe Steam Navigation Com pany, and 'Lord Henry Clinton, who, with a party of gentlemen connected with the enterprise, were on a platform amidships. The steam being shut off, and silence obtained, Capt. Andrews, to whose practised vigilance and general activity so much of the efficiency of all the arrangements of this noble undertaking is due, addressed the navvies in brief, but homely and energetic terms, which elicited hearty plaudits from his hearers. He told them that though the accommodation to be found on board ship necessarily differed considerably from what they hadj been accus tomed to, yet nothing had been neglected that could contribute during the voyage to their comfort and the preservation of that health and strength on which so much reliance was placed, not only by their employers, but by the whole country. Everything that could be done had been done, as far as human foresight could effect it, for them ; aid if they would only be united and cordial among themselves—exhibited good temper, cheer fulness, docility, and con fid ence and respect towards those placed over them on board, they would be as happy as the circumstances of lthe case would possibly permit in a lengthened voyage at this period of the year. For his own part, he could unhesitatingly say, that he never knew an emigrant vessel—and he had known many-- that had furnished quarters in any respect preferable to those on board the Hesperus. He then explained the more immediate objects of the expedition, :and dwelt upon its importance as an auxiliary to the operations of our gallant countrymen in the Crimea. They were going to the aid of our heroic defenders, who had not only to fight—and how they fought the whole world would for ever admiringly testify—but had also to work and per form many duties for which it could not be expected that soldiers were so well adapted as the skilled and trained men who were now going out to relieve them, and leave them at full liberty to deal with the enemy as they had done in the dashing rush at Alma and the immortal conflict at Inkerrnann. The future suc cess of the siege operations and of other operations too in the Crimea would depend in a great measure on the present expedition ; and it might be said accordingly with far more truth of Peto's navvies than of more aspiring experimentalists, that " the eyes of Europe were upon them." They must expect, and would ,not be cast down by hardships and privations ; some of these, perhaps, would not appear so very terrible in the Crimea even as they would at home. There would be no public house to go to ; but there would be plenty of good substantial refreshments always available when needed, and while that was the case he had no fear that there would be much grumbling at whatever work might be expected at their hands. They were not like Russian serfs, who dare not call their souls their own, but who mast slay and be slain without asking why or wherefore. They were free Englishmen, volunteers at perfect liberty to go or stay just as they pleased, according to their own unbiassed judgment, without the least undue influence, concealment, artifice, or exaggeration used to warp their opinion one way or the other. All that was said or done was to guarantee them good clothing, good food, good pay, a good ship, and a good captain. They had a good cause— the cause of the country, the cause of justice, and fair play. They would bring good hearts to the cause--English hearts that never recoiled from the obli gations of duty come in what shape they might, whether at the point of the pick or the bayonet ; and he doubted not that the British navvy would prove l hirnself as great a benefactor in repelling the evils of barbarism abroad as he had been in extending the blessings of civi lisation at home. At the invitation of Capt. Andrews, who was loudly applauded, three cheers were given for the Queen, and three for Messrs. Peto and Betts. He then introduced Lord Henry Clinton, who said that it had been the intention of his brother, the Duke of Newcastle, to have been present, as his grace would have been proud to make the acquaintance of the men who were going with so much alacrity to the aid of an object he had so much at heart as the Balaklava and Sebastopol Railway, but was unable to attend, owing to a Cabinet Council being held that day and at that hour. His lordship also dwelt on the iinpoitance of the under taking, and enforced Captain Andrew's admonition as to the desirability of maintaining sobriety, unien, and good humour in the face of every annoyance to which they might unavoidably be exposed ; for then he was sure that the energy for which they were so deservedly famous would carry them triumphant over every impedi ment. The disinterested, iself-sacrificing promptitude with which IM.r. Peto had acted upon the suggestion which led to the present magnificent enterprises was beyond all praise, even the praise it bad everywhere been met with. As tt was raining, and time pressed, he would not detain them with a long speech, but would conclude by earnestly wishing them a safe and pleasant voyage, and a speedy return to their families and to their country, which they might be sure would welcome them as they deserved. Three cheers were given for his lordship, and three for the Duke of Newcastle, by whom, on th e part of the G overnment, this undertaking has been entered , upon. Captain Andrews then introduced Captain Raymond, the Marine Superintendent of the intended works, and Mr. Xellock, superintendent in the Crimea, who each voles a few words of encotragement, which were re ceived with great cordiality, the cheering being renewed as the visitors and officials put off for shore in a water man's boat. The Hesperus then steamed down the river, amidst the congratulations of all who observed the p roceedings , which may b e regarded as of a most auspiciou s character, auguring well for the organisat ion of th e w h o l e of the vast stuff an d machinery at t he eltsposal of Messrs. Pete and Betts. A SCPPLIMIINT ____ __,..

LONDON SMOKE.* All those who have experienced the depressing effects of a November day, and have seen the atmosphere with out a moment's warning put on the changeable com plexion of a very bad bruise, and then resolve itself into a dull, leaden, hopeless hue, for the rest of the day, can readily understand the fixed belief of the Parisian that in that month Cockneys give themselves up to suicide, and leap in a constant stream from London-bridge. In deed, a countryman from the breezy South Downs, or from any country ♦illage where the air " recommends itself nimbly to the senses," may well feel his heart sink within him as he looks up in vain for the blue sky, and sees nothing but that solemn gray canopy of vapour which sits like an incubus en the whole town. It may be said that it is unfair to take a November fog as offering any speeinten of the atmospheric impuri ties in the midst of which we live. It may be so, but we look upon fogs as providential inflictions, which at certain times in the year seize for our special edification, as it were, the offending elements, and exhibit them un der our very eyes and noses, in order to show us what filth we are continually throwing into the air, and which as continually returns, although in not quite so demon strative a manner. Smoke wa have always with us. If we look out on a fine summer's day through the louvre boards at the top of the Crystal Palace for a view of tho great metro polis, we naturally exclaim, " I see it ; there is the smoke ;" indeed, any picture of London without its dim canopy of soot would be as unrecognizable as would a portrait of Pope, Hogarth, or Cowper without their well known headgear. _ _ This black and heavy cloud is supported by the 500,000 or 600,000 columns of smoke that arise from the 400,000 houses of London. In it we behold tie great aerial coalfield, which contains annually no less than 200,000 tons of fuel that escapes from u-4 up our chimneys. Escapes, did we say S Oh that it did, and that we never heard or saw more of it ; but smoke, a like chicken, still returns to roost. We do not allude to "those horrid blacks" that dance and waltz before our very eyes, and then maliciously plump down upon the ample page of some fine edition, or " squat" deliberately upon the most delicate distance of a sketch by Copley Fielding or Cox, but those finer blacklets that invisibly permeate the air. If we look at any fracture through which a draught penetrates, a cracked window or a shrunken skirtingboard, we shall find that the edges are ragged, with a fine fringe of soot pointing towards the fireplace ; this fact alone is enough to demonstrate that the air is charged both inside and outside our houses with a vast amount of infinitely divided carbon. If it is deposited in this manner by the mere friction of passing any ob ject, we may imagine what irritation it must occasion to the human lungs, into which it is sucked 30 times in the minute, converting them, as it were, into a temporary coalscuttle, out of which we are perpetually compelled to shovel the obnoxious intruder with a cough. The effect upon vegetable life is still more striking ; the palm, which annually throws off its great-coat of soot, is the only tree which will flourish in London. Young wives fresh from the country in the summer-time] beguile themselves with the idea that they will snatch a recollection of home ev er y morn i ng by a view of the I blooming geraniums and rose -trees in the balcony. Alas± in a month's time you shall see the debris of smutty stalks and melancholy flower-pots in the back court, and she never tries the experimen tagain. If vegetation grows black our children grow white, and perish in far greater numb, rs than theywould doin purer air. Life suffering thus, under the dominion of smoke, what shall we say of fabrics of all kinds, furniture, &c., which have not the capacity to throw it off ? Families who have a town and country experience have only to compare their washing bills to perceive how enormously a residence in the former aug ments them. The loss to Londoners from this source alone must amount to millions sterling in the course of the year. But every article that is capable of being spoilt by the most tenacious of all floating pigments suffers alike, and in an incredibly short time tones down to the prevailing leaden hue. Five centuries ago the very condition to which the smoke nuisance has brought us was foretold, and attempts were made to avert it. Until the time of Edward 11. London used only wood for fuel, drawn from the neigh bouring forests. In this reign, however, coal began to be imported from Newcastle, and, the effects of the smoke speedily showing themselves, Parliament in 1316 petitioned the King to prohibit its use in London, on the ground of its being a public nuisance; whereupen he ordered all who burnt seaborne coal to be mulcted, and on a seconl offence to have their furnaces demolished. Like most unnecessarily severe orders, however, it speedily fell into abeyance, and the evil from that time has been going on apace. At the Restoration there were only 200,000 chaldrons imported ; in 1775 500,000 ar rived ; a quantity which had increased to 900,000 at the beginning of the present century, and last year up wards of 4,000,000 tons were received in the metropolis by land and sea. "Things when they are at their worst generally mend," says the old proverb. It required, however, a great deal of apparently hopeless agitation of the smoke question in Parliament to make that slowly-moved body entertain the idea of removing the nuisance by a public: act, and it was not until last autumn that the measure now under review came into operation. According to this act no furnaces employed in the metropolis, with certain exceptions to be mentioned presently, are to he used without being so constructed as to burn their own smoke, under a penalty of sot less than 4.0.4. and not more than 51., while for a second offence King Ed ward's punishment of "demolition" is almost equalled by the fine of 101., "and for each succeeding conviction a sum double the amount of the penalty imposed for the last succeeding conviction." As a considerable portion of the penalty inflicted goes to the informer, it may be readily imagined how narrowly the 6,500 furnace chim neys which come under the act are watched. The smoke-producing districts lie almost entirely over the water, in the parishes of Lambeth, Bermondsey, Rotherhithe, and the borough of Southwark. Here lie the greater portion of the factories—such as those of ta.n , iers, bone-boilers, brewers, saw-mills, flour-mills, distillers, and engineers, whose wealthy proprietors, be fore the passing of this act, were in the habit of deluging the town with the densest smoke, while they retired themselves every evening with the most philosophic in difference to their country villas, far away from its bale ful influence. Nothing can be more satisfactory than the working of this act. You may steam it many times up and down between Westminster and London-bridge and see the tall chimneys len the Southwark bank standing idle in the air. Upon its first passing its utter and early failure was predicted, but the Home Secretary is not the man to let a measure fail in his hands ; and, people having found this out, are with extraordinary celerity oi complying with its provisions, for neglecting which y 31 convictions have as yet taken place, while 78 chim neys have been inspected preparatory to their owners being summoned for a nuisance. One would have imagined that the proved gain to the manufacturer of 12 per cent. on the amount of coals consumed by either Jukes's, Hazeldine's, or Hall's smoke-consumiag furnace would have been suffi cient to induce their adoption without the interference and coercion of the law ; but such has not yet proved to be the case in an considerable degree. The advanced and more enlightened manufacturers —su c h as Truman, Han bury, Buxton, and Co., the great brewers, and Price and Co., the patent candle-makers, indeed, adopted smoke-consuming furnaces long before the passing of the act, and the latter company have introduced them into their great factory on the banks of the Mersey, near Liverpool. It is not our purpose here to enter into any account of the different smoke-consun4ng furnaces which have lately been patented, and it wiil be sufficient to state that the principle of all those in general use is the same. By the action of moveable furnace bars a thin stratum of coal is continually pushed under the fire, and of course all the smoke has to se lend through the in candescent mass, and is consuls:Led in its pa ss ige. Although this plan entirely meets the requirements of the act, yet it cannot be concealed that it does not consume the carburetted hydrogen, the carbonic oxide, and the various hydro-carbons—all of which escape in the form of thin unindictable vapour, of a highly obnoxious character. We ought to be able to adjust the quantity of oxygen to the quantity of disengaged gases requiring its presence to produce combustion in the furnace as easily as we do ' in a moderator lamp, where the slightest motion of a screw converts the angry and lampblack-giving flame into a pure white light. Attempts have been made, we believe to produce such furnaces, but we know not with what success. The second clause of the act provides that all steam boats plying above London-bridge shall have their fur naces so constructed as to consume their own smoke. At first sight one certainly cannot see why the unfortunate people on the banks of the river below bridge should be condemned to wear out a sooty existence by reason of this arbitrary demarcation of the stream ; indeed, we feel strongly inclined to think that the framers of the act must hals olagiarised this ideafrom the announcement generally posted 13 Pon the paddlebox, of "No smoking allowed accorded to l e abaft the f " ennel west-enders, like cabin passengers, this distinctiZe bein g supper ' to demand an exemption which is not London- bridge demand people. The reason urged for which unfurl such ;ilithat. ocean-going steamers never pass allowed to escape freep we are at a los , wtoilkthoe t lo Why these leviathans of passage, nghrennants of smoke, should the Bride are forced to burn * W. penny boats are paunced their furnaces, but the magniacenTt he Bridegroom and anth racite coal or to alter Waterman No. 3, that plies betwe'estle steamers may do as they like ; and Dundee or Ostend more absurdly, London-brid ee Woolwich, mass f away as merrily n eerford and until it passes under i t Pleases must cease to smoke as suddenly 'as but thee. it gentleman in a train, when the any 10,uti11, guard pops hi s i nqu i ring nose in at theagesiendow.

These belong to glassworks and potteries, which are especially exempted from the operations of this act ! How long such ob noxious exceptions are to remain and abuse the patience of the public is a question which, perhaps, the House Secretary can best answer. Since the six thousand and odd chimney shafts cf the metropolis have been put under the surveillance of informers and policemen, who watch their tops as a terrier would a rathole, the air has become 1 sensibly purer on the south side of the river. It cannot be supposed, however, that the total sill - pee s . eion of smoke in all manufacturers' chimneys will have more than a partial effect in freeing the town * "An Act to Abate the Nuisance arising from the Smoke of Furnaces in the Metropolis and from Stearn- Vessels any() London-bridge," THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 3, 1855, from floating carbon. We have still the reeking chimneys of the 390,000 and odd houses of the metro polis to keep up the dismal cloud for ever hanging over us. The question naturally arises,—Cai we put out the smoke of the domestic hearth ? Dr. Arnott Las at tempted to solve this question by the introduction of his improvement upon Cutler's smoke-consuming fire grate. We have seen this burning on the premises of Mr. Edwards, the manufacturer, in Poland-street, and we can safely say that if it will work as well under do mestic supervision as it does there nothing more is re quired. The grate is the ordinary fire-place, having underneath it, in lieu of the under bars, a square iron coal-box, which has a moveable bottom. In the morn ing this box is filled with coal, and the fire is then built and lit in the ordinary manner. As it consumes, instead of replenishing it with coals placed upon the top, by means of a bent poker, which acts as a lever, you press up the bottom of the coalbox and thus supply as much fuel as you require below the fire ; of course there is no smoke, and it is war ranted to burn for 14 hours with 201 b. of coal. An ordi nary fire is generally allowed a mediums-siaed scuttle a day, which must weigh from 281 b. to 301 b. The saving of fuel, according to this calculation, is between 40 and 50 per cent. Of course, if there is no smoke, there is no soot produced, and therefore no fear of chimneys catching fire, with their inevitable results—horrid fire engines and officious policemen, who mulct you at about the rate of ss. per spark. We do not see why in the course of time the smoke nuisance in London should not be entirely abated ; and, when that period shall come, what shall we have gained ? —The crisp, bright atmosphere of Paris, for the suicidal pea-soup air of London, during a portion of the year at least. Does our reader doubt it ? Has he never experienced a perfect sensation, strolling home in the small how's some spring morning, at being able to see from the top to the bottom of Bond-street, and to dis tinguish the slightest detail of architecture at 100 yards' distance ! Every fine summer morning of our existence this smoky, dirty town, is born afresh, bright and clear, like Venus rising from the sea, only to descend upon the wheel of night black and grim as Pluto himself. Let us conquer this smoke nuisance, scare away this nightmare of our own producing, and who shall say that the richest capital in the world shall continue one of tie ugliest ? It lies within our power to perpetuate through out the day to a certain extent the morning's pellucid atmosphere by Act of Parliament and by private eco nomy as effectually as we are now purifying our water. When we shall have done this, Decimus Burton will no longer labour in vain, and we shall cease to be guilty of the folly of introducing Greek or Italian architecture, with a certainty of seeing all details in crusted and lost in a few years beneath a covering of soot. Passing on the north side of St. Mary-le-Strand Church the other day we perceived with astonishment some exquisite carvings of cherubim, flowers, and fruit over the heads of the windows, which had just been dis interred by workmen from their grave of soot, where for years they had been as completely hidden from human view as the Nineveh marbles were by the sand-heaps of Mossul. If a Gill more glaring example were wanting of injury done to our architecture by the fugitive fuel of our fires, there stands St. Paul's. For generations the full tide of London life has passed around it, without learning the les son it teaches. The picture-cleaner places a portrait in his window, one-halt restored to its original freshness, the other half clogged with dirt. Wind and rain, the cleaners of nature, have swept the south side of the metropolitan cathedral in its upper half, and kept the Portland stone as bright as it came from the quarry, while the lower half, which is protected by the surrounding houses, is coated with dismal carbon. Nay, as if to teach the passer-by more distinctly the evil smoke is doing it, we have one side of a pillar white and the other black ; and St. Paul himself, crowning the southern pediment, smiles benignly with a pure and spotless right cheek and side, while the ' drapery hanging over his left arm is thickly lined with soot ! Never did any building cry out in a more dramatic manner to be purified and protected from pollution. While the smoke nuisance continues, of course decora tions in colour of any semi•exposed building are abeurd. Mr. Sang's polychrounic embellishments of the arcade of the Royal Exchange are now reduced to a dull grey; the cobalt tympanum of the British Museum is becoming a good fog colour ; the pictures in the National Gallery are deteriorating ; Owen Jones is in despair ; and all be cause we will send our coal up the chimneys at an aver age cost of ?6s. a ton, in order that it may distribute itself broadcast upon ourselves, our goods, and our public works of art ! HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (Front the Registrar-General's Return.) In the week that ended last Saturday the deaths of 1,50 S persons. namely 759 males and 719 females, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1844-53 the average number was 1,164, and if this is raised in proportion to increase of population it becomes 1,280. The present return shows an excess above the corrected average, amounting to 228. In the first three weeks of December the number re turned weekly was about 1,300. The increase in last week's registration is not the effect of an increases rate of mortality ; it arises for the most part, if not entirely, from eor.lor'o 0n..0a occurred in former weeks, and have been accumulating till the end of the quarter. This irregularity is almost wholly confined to those deaths which in the list of fatal causes are classified as caused by " violence, privation, and intemperance." Two hundrei and eighty-two deaths are attributed to diseases of the zytnotie class, the corrected al , eraqe being 257. Amongst these small-pox was fatal in 33 cases, S of which occurred to persons beyond childhood ; measles in 30 ; scarlatina in 82 ; hooping-cough in 41 ; and typhus and other fevers in 49 cases. In the class of deaths produced by external causes, and which con sists chiefly of cases on which inquests have been held, 3 deaths resulted from intemperance, 2 from privation, 8 from want of breast-milk, and 5 from exposure to cold. Llst week the births of 820 boys, and 819 girls, in all 1,639 children, were registered in London. En the ni ne corresponding weeks of the years 1815.53 the average number was 1,298. During the ;2 weeks of the past year (1854) the total deaths in London amounted to 73,697, so that the gene ral mortality of the year, which in this vast city is at the rate of 25 in 1,000, rose to the high rate of 29 in 1,000. The deaths in 1E49 were 68,432 ; yet upon taking the increase of population into account, the rate of mortality was rather lower in 1854, notwithstanding the increase of deaths, than it was in 1849. The exact rate of mor tality was 3.008 per cent. on the population in 1849, and 2.938 per cent. in 1854. The epidemic of cholera in the two years separated by an interval of five years thus raised the mortality one-fifth part above the average. A table is published with the new return on the in• fluence of density of population. The population of Lon don is very unequally distributed over 78,029 ac res of ground ; in several of the outlying sub-districts the inha tants are in the proportion of 1,2, 3,4, 5,6, 10 on an aere, in other sub-districts the population becomes so crowded that there are 200, 250, 300, 400, and in one sub-district 432 persons lodged on every acre of ground. This table shows that there is no direct connexion be tween these different degrees of density and the fatality of cholera. The epidemic was not generally more fatal in the sub-districts having less than 100 persons to an acre than it was in the dense districts having 200 per sons and upwards to an acre.

The bankrupt in this case was Henry Broome, better known in the ring as "Harry Broome," who came be fore the court in the character of a licensed victualler of Portsmouth. No accounts being filed, an adjournment was ordered. TRADER DEBTOR SUMMONS-PUBLICITY. Mr. Bagley said he appeared in support of a summons which had been taken out against Mr. Charles —. Mr. Plews —I appear for the defendant, and I object to the name being mentioned. I apply to have the case heard in private. Mr. Bagley said it had been decided by Mr. Commis- sioner Evans and Mr. Commissioner Goulburn that those cases should be taken in public. The latter learned commissioner was of opinion that it was greatly for the benefit of the public that those cases should be heard in open court. This was just the case that ought to ba heard in public. The Commissioner—At present I cannot say whether it ought to be heard in public or not; but my own practice Iq, if either party objects to a public hearing, to take it in private. If there were a general rule on the subject, it ought to be acted upon. Mr. Bagley—l quite agree withyour Honour as to the necessity of there being a general rule. The Commissioner—Till that is done, if either party asks for a private hearing, I shall grant it. IN RE 'TODD -A GOOD ESTATE. This was the examination meeting in the case of A. M. Todd, merchant and commission agent, of Clement's lane. The accounts commenced in January, 1853, with a capital of 2841. He now owes to unsecured creditors 3,741/. ; to those holdi ng security, 3 , 026/ . ; li a bi lities, 2501. A remarkable feature in the case is, that the bank rupt has given up 2,1561. in cash ; the good debts are returned at 1,7871. ; doubtful, ditto, 1,0301. ; property, 6331. ; ditto, held by creditors, 1,0001. The profits had been 1,0221. ; trade expenses, 6361. ; domestic ditto, 2911. ; interest, 4981. Mr. C. P. Frown, for the assignees, expressed their satisfaction with the accounts. The balance sheet was of a kind which was not often seen in that court. Mr. Lawrence, for the bankrupt, stated that the assets already raised would yield a considerable dividendovhieh would probably be paid within two months of the bank puptcy, the petition having only been filed in November last. The bankrupt then passed. IN RE CAWLEY. The bankrupt, an upholsterer, of Brompton, applied for his certificate. ills debts were 1,680/. ; assets about 801. Mr. Allen, for the assignees, called attention to the fact that the bankrupt was in a deficiency of 6351. at the commencement of 1852. Since that time his gross profits Lad been 7701., while his trade expenditure had been 5611., and his domestic expenditure 7121. The assets were so small that they would yield no dividend ; so that the proceedings would be entirely for the bank rupt's benefit. The bankrupt, who had no advocate, alleged that he had been struggling with difficulties several years, and that he had a large tatnily. He had been ten years in business ou his own account. Mr. Allen said it should be stated on behalf of the bankrupt, that a friend of his offered to pay the credi tors ss. in the pound ; but one creditor stood out, and the result was bankruptcy. His Honour said the bankrupt's error had been in going on after he was hopelessly insolvent. As there were favourable circumstances the justice of the case would be met by a suspension of the certificate for three months, when granted to be of the second class. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.--Jana. 2. MANSION-HOUSE.—Joseph Stalin and C. Paley were brought up under the following rather peculiar circumstances. Mr. Hobler appeared for the prosecu tion, and Mr. Won tner for Salliss. Sallies was, on the 23d of December, charged by the house of G. B. Thornycroft and Co., of Upper Thames street, iron merchants, upon the following evidence : Mr. T. Webb, foreman to the prosecutors, said—We have lately lost a great deal of pig iron, and that which was left upon the wharf was marked a T and two dots, and last night at 4 o'clock that iron which I had so marked was safe upon the wharf. This morning, at half past 7 o'clock, I examined the pile of pig iron on the wharf, and missed four or five pieces weighing about 5 cwt. I gave information immediately to the manager. At a quarter to 10 this morning, in consequence of in formation which I received, I went over to Sallise's iron foundry, in Great Guildford-street, Southwark, and saw lying in his yard five pieces of pig iron, all of which had my marks on them. I then went and got a policeman, and gave Salliss, who was at work on the premises, in charge. I told Sallies that it was for stealing those pieces of pig iron that I placed him in custody. He said that he had purchased them, and he mentioned some name which I do not recollect. A Metropolitan Policeman said at 11 o'clock this day the last witness spoke to w►e, and I went with him to the prisoner's premises, where I saw Salliss, and he was given into my custody for stealing the iron. He s'iid he had bought the pieces of a young man on the river of the name of Patey. He afterwards said he had not paid for the iron, that his scales were gone to the- scale makers to uorectittud, and ghat the young matt was to call again for the money. SAllis gave the following account of the matter :—A man named Patey came to me, this morning at about half-past 6 o'clock, and said ho had picked up the iron on the river, and as I had no scales, ho was to come again about 11 o'clock for the money. And bail having bee❑ taken for his appearance on Wednesday, the case was remanded. On the 26th of December, Joseph C. Patey was brought up by a metropolitan policeman, who said that Salliss, who had been apprended on the 231 of Decem ber, had given him in custody for stealing some iron. The alderman, after bearing a summary of the parti culars of the charge, said he would take the recognisance of Patey to appear next day. Patey appeared accord• ingly, and Saliss and he were put to the bar together before Alderman Wire. Henry Thomas, 50 M, said—About 4 o'clock on Sa turday afternoon I was sent for to the factory of Mr. Salliss. I saw Mr. Salliss, who took me up stairs, where I saw the prisoner Patey. Sallies gave him into my custody, and said it 'vas for bringing stolen iron to his place. He also said they knew all about it at the station-house, and that he would come and charge Patey there. Patey said he did not know anything about what he was charged with. Mr. Sallies afterwards came to the station-house and we were sent over to Bow-lane station-house, where Patsy was charged with stealing 5 bars of pig iron. Patey did not make any remark to the charge. Bail was then taken for both prisoners, and on the last examination they were both placed at the bar when the depositions of Mr. 'Webb, the foreman to the prose cutors, were read over. The witness, in his cross-examination, said—l walked into Salliss's yard and found the iron there. I went through the yard to go to his shop, and saw the irun before I saw him. The prisoner ilia not tell me that the person who left the iron was to come again, but the po liceman stated that Sallies had said so. The iron was lying open in the yard--not covered over. I spoke to Salliss about some washers—not about the iron ; and then I went and fetched a policeman. Wr. Wontner called the following witness for Sallies : Mr. Hooton, ironfounder, 14, New Church-street, Bermondsey, said—l was at Mr. Salliss's foundry at six o'clock on the morning of the 23d December. The doors were fastened, and I called him up. I wanted him to make me some fire bars, There was some pig iron in a truck, which was against the kirb when I got there. Part of the iron was leaning against the door and out of the truck, and part was in the truck. I saw a man with it, a labouring man. I only saw one man. He was like this man (Patey), but I think he was a little stouter. I would not swear to the man. Examined for the prosecution by Mr. Hobler—He was a man about the size of Patey, but was rather dark. They were broken half pigs that I saw. I observed no marks saw Sallies is in a short ont x leene . I o did r not tim se and eany gwavheolheim my order.pigsetiron, I The truck was a hand truck. aalgd P aei i fun t s e r y ini after w h I what t v t ig lh n tet om r e mi le rh iir t caution a s likely fyrottno tellth e e s u cl a t i y a i r sB,B shop that day about five o'clock in the afternoon for the false bottom of a fireplace. I asked him about it, and he told me to go and sit down a little while he was busy moulding. His wife told lase to go up stairs, and she went down again, and then he came up with the policeman and gave me in charge, and I did not know what it was for. My mother knows that I was so ill that morning that I was unable to get out of my bed till late, and I was obliged to take some physic. Alderman Wire than further remanded the case till Thursday, ansi said that under such circumstances it was most necessary upon the part of the p o li ce t o exer cise skill and activity to accomplish the ends of justice. THAMES.-- William Capel, a cab-driver, was charged with refusing to take a fare, and with insolent conduct. Mr. John Parlour, the landlord of the Sir Paul Pin dar Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, stated that on Christ mas-day, at half-past three o'clock in the morning, he went to the cab-rank at Mile-end gate, and told the de fendant, who was there with his cab, ho wanted him to drive to the Commercial-road to take up his wife, who was at a, friend's house awaiting his return. Tho defen dant asked him where he was going to after leaving the Commercial -road, to which he replied, the City. The defendant made use of the most horrible language and abuse, and said ho would not draw his cab off the stand for any one ; that he had pulled it off for one sixpence during the night, and would not do it for an other. The defendant then turned round and said, " What are you going to pay me ?" and he said he would pay Lim the proper fare at the journey's end. The de fendant swore at him and exclaimed " I'll see you first before I take you," and gave utterance to the most foul abuse and obscenities. _ Police-sergeant Curtis confirmed the latter part of Mr. Parlour's statement. Tite defundant said that Mr. Parlour and his friend pulled him out of his c , b, broke his badge, and said " be d-- dit you shan't take us ;" and as they swore at him and laid hold of hie collar, he gave them as good as they sent. Mr. Parlour denied that he and his friend used any violence ur bad languar;e to the cabman. Mr. Yardley fined the deLodant 40e. and cestq, and endorsed his license.
