At his Grace's levee, which is attended both by clergy and laity, a correspondent of ours observed on the breast of many a veteran, some in uniform and some in mufti, medals with bars from one to twelve. Why should this Long delayed decoration not be worn when at last obtained ? GARRISON OF DUBLIN.—The force now stationed in Dublin consists of one troop of Royal Horse Artillery, six companies of Royal Artillery, three cavalry regi ments, six regiments .of infantry, 800 enrolled pen sioners, and the staff of the Dublin City Militia,•making an effective strength of 6,750 men.

NAVAL ASSISTANT-SURGEONS. The petitions to Parliamen; in :avow- of the Naval A3sistant-Surgeons, from influential sources, are becoming numerous. We have already announced in our columns that petitions had been preseritA from the Royal College of Physicians and the Royal College of Surgeons at Ellin burgh, and from the Royal College of Surgeons in Dublin; and that a deputation from the Royal College of Sur georls of Linden had waited upon Sir F. Baring, First Lord of the Admiralty, and urged upon him the neces sity of rt netering juatico to an important section of the public service. We have now to add that the faculty of physicians and surgeons of Glasgow have lately peti tioned Parliament on the same subject. STEAM-ENGINE POE. TLIE ROPERY.-Mr. Burton, the Master Ropemaker of Chatham Dockyard, has been at Devonport, by Admiralty order, to consult with Mr Gruz ler, the Master Bopemaker of Devonport, and Captain Burgman, R.E , and Mr. Atherton, Chief Engi neer, as to the best p!ace for fixing a steam engine of 20- horse power to be tmpl9yed in the rope-house. MINING INTELLIGENCE. (from the Mining Journal) The business trans acted in the ,Mining Share-market this week has been very limited indeed, still there are Active inquiries for shares in some of our dividend plying and improving mines. Several negotiations are consequently going on, which, we expect, will terminate in satisfactory sales. West Buller continues to improve, and shares have very considerably advanced and much inquired for. West Caradon is reported to have considerably im pr wed, and some important discoveries have been mule; shares have, in consequence, been in demand at a con siderable advance. At Kingsett and Bedford the discovery made last week continues to improve, the lode being represented as two feet of solid ore. At Wheal Catstock a fine course of copper has been discovered ; this sett is immediately adjoining Wheal Zion, now about being commenced, and the discovery Witt no doubt greatly tacilitate the formation of the com • pany, and stimulate present operations. South Friendship Wheal Ann has improved ; a tine course of tin in the 26 fathom level west, and also in the winze east. Camborne Consols is represented to have considerably improved during the week, and several shares have changed hands in consequence. Shares in the following mines have changed hands this week—viz.; East Wheal Rose, Devon Great Con sols, West Buller, South Wheal Frances, Mary Ann, llerodsfont, Treiawney, Birch Tor, South Tamar, East Tamar, Camburne Consols, Trehane, Tamar Consols, Bedford United, Cwm Bran, Esgair Lli, South Friend ship, &c. At the Wheal Trehane meeting, the accounts for January and February were audited, showing a balance of 675/. 17s. 9d. in favour of the company, with 70 tons of rich silver lead ore for sale. A dividend of 21. per share was declared, leaving a credit of 163/. 17s. 9d. to next account. 6ince the last meeting, the lode has been intersected in the 68 fm. level, and they have commenced driving north and south on its course, which is reported to be improving as they progress, as well as the stopes and ends in the other levels. At the Wheal Tregorden meeting, for receiving the accounts fur January and February, the balance-sheet presented showed a debit of 1001. to adventurers on the two months' working. A call of 10s. per share was cLemed necessary, which, with the rich silver lead ore already raised, will nearly place the mine out of debt at the next meeting. _ At the Great'Work meeting, the accounts for Janu ary, February, and March, showed the tin sold to have realised a profit of 1,091/. 6s. 10d., which, added to balance in hand in December, allowed a dividend of 101. per !hare, having balance of 3691. ss. in purser's hands, earned to credit of next account. , 4 1 1 ,t ,the West Wheal Treasury meeting, the statement biluired a balance , cf 921. Bs. 7d. due to purser. At the Wheal Margaret meeting a dividend of 12/. per Attie was declared. The accounts showed a profit of 1,4611. for February and March; after payment of dividend a balance of 367 k 17s. is carried to credit of next account. The Guadalcanal Silver Mining Company's report enters into ts full detail of the company's proceedings from the commencement. The reports ftkm the mines, as to the efficiency of the machinery, and the progress at the surface and underground operations, are highly satisfactory. The latest accounts (18th of May) advise that the POZD Rico Mine was nearly in fork to the 50 fathom level, and that fine specimens and whole ground had been discovered in the 30 fathom level, the latter valued at 501 per fathom. The suggestion of the &rec tors to dress and smelt the ore on the mines, atter being discussed, was postponed. The balance-sheet to 25th March shoWed an available balance of 4,4641. 1 ls. 7d. The prospects of the company are considered highly en couraging, and the next dispatches are anticipated with much interest. At the meeting of the General Mining Association a - dividend of 11 per share was declared. The company commenced operations in 1825, under a grant from the late Duke of Y,)rk, for working some coal mines in Nova Scotia. We learn that the negotiations which have been tie long pendit,g between his Royal Highness's creditors and the company are likely to be brought to a satisfac tory termination. _ The meeting of debenture holders of the Company of Copper Miners in England, we regret to say, terminated without coming to any arrangement. There appeared to be an almost unanimous complaint, that the commit tee appointed in July, 1848, had been very remiss in their d u ti e s—in fact, so much so, th at t h e debenture fielders had began to think of acting for themselves in dividually. Various opinions were given by the several speakers of the value of the property, but, the general teeline• appeared to be, that a committee should be ap.- pointtd to discuss and prepare an arrangement with the shareholders and the Bank of England. No one, how ever, was willing to serve on this committee; and, there being.so little unanimity, the meeting was forced to ad journ, to - give the debenture holders time to consider the report.. - - In foreign nainei bgainese his been Nuttily bevy this week; a few transactions in St. John del Rey, Imperial Brazilian, United Mexican, Guadalcanal, Copiapo, and Bolanos, have taken place, but not at improved prices. We gave last week the report from the Australian mines to the 9th February; but being pressed - for space, were unable to furnish the usual summary. The cap tain's monthly report is to the 2d February, and advises the appearances of the lode, north and south of Goad's winz,,, as continuing productive. On Home's lode the operations have been retarded, in consequence of the in crease. In Anstey's shaft the ground continues hard— the progress, therefore, slow. In the 40, north of Phillips's winze, the lode had not been taken down in January. The ground in the new shaft, on Baker's lode, is easier for sink ing. Cross cuts are being driven from two winzcs to intersect Anstcy's lode, at which points a productive lode is anticipated. One hundred tons of copper ore was raised in January, 50 of which will realise 26 per cent., and 50 is expected to be worth 12 to 15 per cent. Some large purchases have been effected in the North British Australa , ian Company. Since our last notice of this company, we learn that the Cheapside has arrived with 83 bales of wool and 100 tons of copper regulus, and the Isabella Hercus with 26 bales, 58 tons of copper ore, and 63 tons of reg u lus, a nd that the Catherine Ja mieson is shortly expected. We find from an assay of a sample of regulus, taken indiscriminately from the pile, that it gives 16 per cent. pure copper.

The following appeared in our Third Ed' Saturday] : La Reforme contains the following paragraph : " We find in a letter from Rome a fact of much im portance, namely, that the Constituent Assembly. having energetically rejected the propositions of M. Lesseps, had given authority to the Triumvirate to treat again, and that the Triumvirs proposed to the French Plenipo tentiary the following conditions:—First, the people shall again be called to exercise their sovereignty by means of universal suffrage. Second, the Austrians, the Neapolitans, and the Spaniards shall imme diately evacuate the territory of the Republic, as universal suffrage would be a mockery under the pressure of foreign bayonets. Third, the French shall move to a distance from Rome. The Re public, always generous and fraternal, will grant them for garrison a place exempt from fever, where they shall meet with the reception mutually due to each other by Republican brethren. They shall remain there as riends, not as protectors, for the Democracy of Rome will constitute itself without foreign influence. Fourth, when the Republic shall be again proclaimed by urn, vernal suffrage, the French shall salute it as their sister, and pledge themselves to cause it to be recognisLd by the belligerent Powers" Adeplorable collision has taken place at La Vogue de St. Quentin (Isere) between the soldiers quartered there and the inhabitants, who had taken the part of a soldier who had been guilty of a breach of disci pline, and opposed a file of men sent to arrest the culprit. In the course of the resistance one of the people threw a stone at the captain who headed the military party, and killed him on the spot. The soldiers, exasperated by this desperate act, went to their quarters, and, returning with their muskets, charged the people with their bayonets, receiving in return showers of stones. At the time this account left General Duhaut was marching upon the rioters with a battalion. The 31 oniteur publishes the returns of the corn trade in the different markets of France, from which it appears that, during the first fortnight of May, the hectolitre of wheat sold at Toulouse, Gray, Lyons, and Marseilles for 17f. 3c.; at Marans and Bordeaux, 15f. 43c.; at St. Laurant and Le Grand Lamps, 161. 32c. ; at Mulhouse and Strasbourg, 16f. 80c. ; at Bergues, Arras, Boye, Soissons, Paris, and Rouen, 16t. 22c. ; at Saumur and Nantes, 14f. 66c. ; at Metz, Verdun, and Charlevil!e, 13f. 66c. ; at St. Lo, Paimpol, Quimper, and Hennebon, 15f. 81c. PRUSSIA. THE NEW GERMAN CONSTITUTION. The German Constitution as agreed on by the Plenipotentiaries at the Congress of Berlin, is pub lished in the Berlin Gazette, of the 30th ult. In the address to the several German Governments, by which it is preceded, the Prussian Cabinet states that Bavaria has taken part in the conference in which the Comti , tution was framed, but reserves the decisive declara tion of its acceptance. The Prussian Government further states that the Powers who are parties to the Constitution have drawn it up, that they may be enabled to meet the dangers by which Germany is threatened if it longer remains without federative constitution or union, and because the .Frankfort Assembly ceased to exist as a legal body when it completed its plan of a Constitution, which could not be accepted by the Government without alteration; all the after acts of that Chamber are therefore to be considered as exceeding its powers and without validity. What follows is a translation of the docu ment itself:— " The Governments of Prussia, Saxony, and Hano• mutual n nerfmoci t ,r e eruauryi sn:eae i dpb n dal art. partoft. oot eeTj a sc o.ht necessaryoi e u no r n nT ti this hohoneef ver have therefore agreed, according to the 11th Article o ( i tbks. members t e h d e ) , A tli c that t of againstfor t ia : et. les d eamx e bori r thiee a tvjarh t ees i nclon o ua: n rleole , tv:wah:n t ethr o hdi sctaoht e ri conduct for Go vernmentt hthis e 0 o d t i h —e they general n , German Confederation of Lund called into existence by the danger of the moment, and is requested to notify its junction with it with the least possible delay. The above-named Governments would, however, but imperfectly discharge t``l3 mission imposed on them if they merely dwell on the necessities which spring from the immediate present. They are impressed with the con viction that reason and duty alike require them to speak openly to the nation, as well as to their allies, on their position with regard to the question of the Constitution. They did not recognise the Constitution drawn up by the Frankfort Assembly, because it went beyond the true and wholesome requirements of a powerful federa tive state, and, in the form it received from the conflict and concessions of political parties, it did not contain those essential guarantees on which the legal and regular existence of every system of government reposes. " But the united Governments have never for a mo ment forgotten that even for these reasons it became their th at a o s u double ee o d ra u t o y a tope i c n o d - r pen a s t u e h en necessity framing a whole of Germany. Such a Constitution will secure to the nation what it for a long period has been painfully de prived of, what it is justified in demanding of its go vernments—unity and strength in relation to foreign Powers; in its internal affairs with the secured continu ance of the existence of each member of the union, a common development of general interests and national necessities. It. is the guarantees of just freedom and legal order which the German Constitution will have to grant to the Governments and to the people. " On the proposition of Prussia, therefore, a draft of an Imperial Constitution is laid before the several Mem bers of the Confederation of 1815, in the hope that it will meet their assent. The German States which ac cept the present form of Constitution will be considered as members of the federate state described in Article 1; while those states which do not find themselves called on to accept it will continue to possess those rights and duties unchanged, created by the treaties •of 1815." The Constitution is very long, containing, with the law of election, more than 190 paragraphs. An abstract of the most important articles is sub joined : Consulsd and war, appoints the A mbassadors an o f h t e " The Imperial Hous e has the right of making peace Empire, conducts the diplomatic intercourse , and con eludes treaties of navigatio n and commerce with foreign countries. The several Germ an Governments have given the Imperial Power. over their right to receive o r appoint.

(Before Lord Chief Justice DENMAN, Mr. Baron PARKE, Mr. Justice PATTESON, Mr. Justice COLTMAN, and Mr. Justice WILLIAMS.) QUEEN V. CHAPMAN. This case was tried before L')rd Chief Justice Den man, at Taunton, when the prisoner was found guilty of perjury. Mr. PHINN appeared in support of the prisoner's appeal on several points reserved by the Learned Judge for the decision of thi s C our t. It appeared that the prisoner had obtained a marriage license from the sur. rogate of Bath and Wells upon false representations, laving stated that it was for himself, whereas it was for some other person. The grounds for the appeal were first that the indictment could not be sustained, inasmuch as he had not made the statement in the form °fan oath ; 2dly, that if he had, the allegation that the surrogate had power to grant the license and administer the oath, had not been proved either in point of law or of fact; and, idly, that making a false statement before a surrogate to obtain a marri age license was not punishable as perjury. Mr. FITZIIERBERT contended that the conviction was good. The COURT were unanimously of opinion that judg mc must be for the Crown. Conviction confirmed accordingly. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, June 2. (Sittings in Banco.) NEW TRIAL PAPEK. WAKLLY v. HEALEY AND COOKE. This was an action of libel, in which the plaintiff, who is the son of the coroner for Middlesex, and attached to the Royal Free Hospital, Gray's Inn-lane, and practis ing in London, sought to recover compensation for cer tain libels, published by the defendants in the Medical Times, of which work they were joint proprietors. The declaration alleged that the plaintiff was a surgeon and member of the R o y a l C o ll ege of Surgeons, herring the power under its charter and byelaws to expel its mem bers for unprofessional conduct; and it went on to allege,. that the defendants published of and concerning the plaintiff certain libels, imputing to him that he had been guilty of unprofessional conduct in publishing , puff ing advertisements of his operations at the hospital the Times, in the shape of advertisements of the con tents of the forthcoming number of the Lancet, . which accounts would be given of the operations in ques tion, and their highly successful result." This conduct the libels alleged to be such as would subject the plain tiff to be expelled under the charter and byelaws of the eullego, which were stated to confer such power of ex puliion. The defendants pleaded " not guilty," and traversed that the plaintiff was member of a college having such a power of expulsion as was al leged in the declaration ; and at the close of the case for the plaintiff, Mr. Henley, who conducted the de fence in person, submitt* d that on the second plea the defendants were entitled to a verdict, es there was no evidence that the College of Surgeons had the alleged power of expulsion. The Chief Bsron, however, in clined to think, with the plaintiff, that the statements in the litielz themselves might be taken as evidence of the fact there alleged as against them, and the case having gone to the jury a verdict was returned for the plaintiff, with 40s. damages. Afterwards this rule for a new trial was moved for by Mr. Healey, on the ground that there ought to have been some other evidence giv e n by th e plaintiff in support of this issue; and now, Mr. Martin and Mr. Bramwell were heard in opposi tion to the rule; Mr. Sergeant Wilkins and Mr. Dears ley appeared for Mr. Healey, and Mr. Mills for the de fendant Cooke. The COURT, however, refus e d t o h ear t h e l atter gen tleman, as, though notice of the rule had been served on him, his client was, in fact, no party to it. All that the Court could do was to take from the Learned Gentleman his assent, on behalf of Mr. Cooke, to the rule being made absolute for a new trial. Sir F. PoLnocK, in the course of th e case, sa id t h at h e thought ho had fallen into an error a t th e tr i a l i n attri butiug such weight to the statement in tho libel. His Lordship thought now that there ought to have been distinct evidence by the plaintiff of the byelaw and charter. If there was no such byelaw the libel was not of so important a character, and the case, i n hi s op i n i on, ought to go down again. The COURT, howeyer , did not at once pronou nce any given form on al"ini opinion, but intimated th at j udgment would be Monday next. INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT, June 2. The lion.

The schedule filed by the insolvent, now 36 years old, was of considerable dimensions. Th e d e b ts i n t h e ag gregate were 32,1991., of which no consideration was received for 6,632/., and were railway liabilities, and 4204 were more than occe entered, leaving the bona fide debts from 1841 25,14 . 61. There were no debtors, and only about 401. to be given up to the creditors, number ing in the schedule 221. The insolv enc y was a tt r ib u t e d to the great loss sustained on the sa l e o f f urn it ure a t Theyden House, Epping; to railway liabilities, and to the failure of the accustomed receipts from friends. He had been in the receipt of 300/. a year from his brother, and his wife's fathi r, Lord Maynard, made him a gra tuitous allowance of 6001. His income over the period of his schedule had been 9001. a year. On the case being opened, an application was made on the part of the insolvent that it might be adjourned, and one of the reasons urged was, that as nearly fifty creditors opposed, and no previous notice had be en given, time should be allowed. The application was not assented to en the other side, and as many creditors were in atte n d ance f rom E pp i ng, t h e Chi e f C omm i ss i oner directed the case to proceed, declaring that it must be heard as a common and ordinary matter. The Court was crowded at the time. The insolvent underwent a long examination. I t a pp eare d, from his evidence, that his debts amounted to the sum already stated, to meet which he had only 40/., arising from the valuation of sstoompeped a prop t erty. lie had incurred his debts in about seven years, d ur i ng wh i c h t i me h e h a d derived his al ion ante of ab out 900/. a year, b u t th e re was no settle ment. Th e a ll owances were con ti nue d, but could be any moment. He was married in 1835, when no settlement was made. In 1842 he took Theyden Ho u se at Epping, where he h a d continued till last year. He had expended a owingiB4, andfor furniture. i s t a u l o r e , . vv a s H i e a good deal of money for repairs on the house, and now owed money on the same account. The furniture,. plate, &c., had cost him about 10,000/., one half of which was laid out in furniture. There was 5441. at present year, as several executions followed. A seizuse under debt for a dressing -ease, a bill of sale he had given to a islr. Chard, for 1,8001., w m •a a s y fi , sreed to leave in . May list money lent. The bill of sale was given . in February, 1848, and in the interval he had contracted various debts; among the rot, a &c., and jewellery, and had not paid any money to the two particular creditors. On being asked th e reason h e hadnot submitted to the ju risdiction of the Court whilst he had property, he said IT wished he had done so. Some of his friends advised him and some advised him not to do so. The result of a the execution s was t h a t be was left without prope7ty. 1 -10 had omitt e d to state in his account 5001. he had borrowed from a mone y lender, and which had been rep ,id by th e sale at Epping % He had a to wn residence in P ar k- stree t, for which houso he paid which 320/ a year, a n d he April y l t u occu piedne," duringn and lie the "season ; " and on being asked the time " th e seasons" lasted, he said, from • let it during the remainder of the year. The property at Theyden [louse, which had cost about 10,000/., was sold for 3,815/. 103. 2d., and several executions were discharged, as well as the debt of 1,800/. Since ho left Epping ho had used various names for concealment, such as Cooper, Clifford, Cuthbert, and Ceymour, always using the letter " C " as his linen was marked with that initial. He had filed his petition under the Protection Act, whilst residing a t Ebury-street, Pimlico, where he passed under one of the assumed names. The case having occupied more than two hours, an adjournment ins proposed, so as to enable the creditors to return to the country, and it was stated that, as it was then three o'clock, it would be impossible to conclude it in one day. It was arranged that it should be adjourned to Thursday next, and the insolvent had his protection renewed until that day. The case created a good deal of interest. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARYLEBONE. Mr. George Brochlehurst, a Quaker, describing himself ai a cotton-:hreader, residing at Stockport, was brought before Mr. Long, charged with having defrauded the London and North-Western Railway Company, under the circumstances below stated:— M. Penson, ticket-collector at the Camden station, deposed that on the previous evening, at seven o'clock, upon the arrival of a third-class train, he went to the different carriages to collect the tickets, and on asking the prisoner for hip, he said that he had none, neither had he any money. He was further questioned by wit ness, when he replied that he had travelled from Stock port, and had en idea that he should meet some one in London who would perhaps be disposed to pay for him. This story not being at all satisfactory, he was given into the custody of a guard, and conveyed by him to the Easton terminus, where he was detained fur a time by the proper authorities, and ultimately locked up at the station-house. Inipector Dalby, of the Railway Police, said that he left the prisoner on the company's premisf s nearly two hours in hopes that he would be able to think of some one to whom he could apply for the sum due from him, viz., 153. 21d.; he, however, could not name any one who would be ,likely to get him out of his trouble; he was searched, and all that he had upon him was an old razor and a small knife. Mr. LONG (to the prisoner)—What have you to say to this ? Prisoner—When I set off I had no intention of defrauding the company, nor have I now. I thought it not unlikely that I might on my arrival in town see a friend upon the ;platform, or, if not, that I might per haps find out somebody in the city who would assist me. Mr. LoNG—What are the names of the persons to whom you allude ? Prisoner—l can't recollect any of them. Mr. LONG gave him to understand that his conduct was altogether of a most dishonest and reprehensible nature, and in default of his paying the amount claimed he was committed for seven days. WORSHIP-STREET. A decently dressed man, who gave the name of Henry Bunn, and appeared about 35 years of age, was charged before Mr. Arnold with the following determined attempt at self-destruction. While the preceding charge was being disposed of, the prisoner, who was standing in the court and appeared to be labouring under great mental depression, watched his opportunity when he thought he was not observed, and, quietly turning himself round, was seen to put his hand up to his face. He was directly after noticed to be in great pain, and upon looking at him it was disco vered that he had forced his thumb-nail under one of his eyeballs, and was endeavouring to gouge it out. He was immediately seized by one of the officers, and the completion of the act was prevented, but the prisoner had so seriously lacerated the eye that the blood trickled from the wound. He then expressed his deter mination to destroy himself, and became so violent that the gaoler was obliged to force him into the yard, and place handcuffs upon him before he could be examined. A person named Radford, stated that while walking out of the Kingsland-road, about dusk on Thursday evening, he heard a violent plunge into the Regen‘'s Canal, and upon looking towards the spot saw a man, who turned out to be the prisoner, struggling in the water. It was evident from his desperate exertions that he could not swim, and, as he was rapidly sinking, wit ness jumped in after him, and succeeded at length in getting a sufficient hold of him to pull him to the bank. He was then apparently insensible, and was conveyed to the workhouse, but had suffered so seriously from his immersion that he could not be brought up to the Court till now. The prisorer was questioned by the magistrate with a view to ascertlin the cause of his committing the act, or the residence of his relatives, but he declined to give any account of himself that bore the appearance of truth, and merely said that he had some friends at lloxton, without specifying where; this was partially contradicted by one of the officers, who said that he could not ascer tain that the prisoner had relatives anywhere in town, and Mr. ARNOLD therefore determined upon committing him to the House of Detention for a week, that further inquiries might be made respecting him, and at the same time gave directions that the surgeon:of the gaol might be requested to examine into the state of his mind. The prisoner displayed the same morbid feeling up to the arrival of the prison van, in which he was carried away with the handcuffs still upon him. SOEITIIWARK. Jeremiah Sadler, a powerful-looking man, was placed at the bar before Mr. Cottingham, charged with attempt ing to stub M r . D u f a i ne , a gent leman of independent property residing in the Old Kent-road. The complainant deposed that a little after seven o'clock on the previous evening he was proceeding along the Dover-road towards his residence, when he saw the prisoner running after some lads with an open knife in his hands. He suddenly turned round to witness and exclaimed that he was determined to serve somebody out, and thurished his knife over his head. Fearing that some injury would be done to him, he went into a shop to ret out of his way, and on his emerging from the shop a quarter of an hour at terwar.ls, the prisoner suddenly rushed upon him with his open knife, and exclaimed, " Now I have you, and I'll do for you," at the same time making a desperate plunge at him. Witness fortunately warded utr the blow, and, a policeman coming up at the time, he was secured, and the knife wrested from his grasp. Police constable 142 P said that he received informa tion while on his beat that a man was threatening to murder some people in the Dover-road, and on proceed ing to the spot he saw the prisoner rushing upon the complainant with an open knife in his hand. lie in. stantly seized hold of him, and, after considerable diffi culty wrested the instrument from his grasp. When he took him to the station-house, he told him he was only picking his nails, and did not intend to do the prosecutor any injury. In answer to the magistrate, Mr. Dufaine said that the prisoner was a perfect stranger to him, and he had never seen him before. He made such a desperate plunge at him that, had he not turned round, he must have murdered him. The knife, a long sharp Spanish one, was here pro duced by the constable. In answer to the magistrate, the prisoner replied that he was much intoxicated at the time, and being annoyed by some boys, he ran after them with his knife to frighten them. He denied any intention to injure the complain ant. Ile was a native of Norwich, and had only a few days ago come up to London in search of employment, and was at the time going to see a friend in the Kent road, when a number of lads annoyed him. Seargeant Charmer, 24 M, informed the magistrate that the prisoner was so violent, and ran in such a threa tening attitude along the street, that the whole of the passengers were placed in a state of consternation. Ho tiouriihed the knife over his head, and swore he would murder the first person who came near him. Mr. COTTINGEIAM said he was a very desperate cha racter, and it was fortunate for him ho did not commit murder. He should order inquiries to be made about him, and in the mean time consign him to prison for a week, when he should deal with him according to law. William Mills, a costertnonger, was charged with breaking the upper jaw of a 'lad named Patrick Fuery, and kicking him in a severe manner. The lad was called into the witness-box, but owing to the gross injuries he had received he was unable to arti culate. A surgeon's certificate from Gay's Hospital was handed to the magistrate, proving that the lad was se verely injured with a fractured jaw. George Daniels, a lad, stated, that ho was with com plainant, and saw kim go to the defendant's truck in Kent-street, and drag it some distance. The defendant then came up and struck the complainant, and, on the latter running away, he received the kick on the jaw which completely stunned him. The defendant was in a great passion, and exhibited great violence. The prisoner said he was a respectable man, and he was extremely sorry for what had occurred. The fact was, the boys were in the habit of making game of him, and on seeing the complainant run away with his truck he followed him, and struck him, and on his being saucy he kicked him, but not with the intention of hurting him. Mr. COTTINGIIAM said that the certificate from Guy's Hospital showed that the lad was in great danger, and no bad conduct on his part would warrant the defendant in acting in such a savage manner. He should, therefore, order him to be remanded until Monday next for the at tendance of the surgeon. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE OF FRIDAY: DIVIDENDS. At the Court, Basinghall-street. J.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS. 1 4 IANCHESTER, JPINE 2.—An almost complete holiday week affords no subject for remark, further than that the business done has been limited to retail transactions at lee pr Liverpool and Wakefield steady with moderate arrivals. Our Exchange to-day is thinly attended ;in no article is any amount of business done. WINCHESTER, JUNE 2.—The splendid weather since this day week, with the prospect of an abundant harvest, caused the corn trade to be very dull. Of wheat a fair supply. Millers purchased sparingly; sellers were therefore pressing their sales, and offered best samples at 5s per load less money, inferior ditto even at a further decline. Indian Corn, English and foreign flour, and rye, were also of very slow sale, yet we cannot quote prices less than this day week. Barley was not in great demand, the little sold went at from 26s to 30s per quarter. The malt trade very depressed ; some good samples offered at 7s per bushel. Beans and peas without variation rn price, although very few seemed disposed to purchase. Oats could be had at a further reduction of Is per quarter. READING, JUNE 2.—Wheat, per quarter, 34s to 565; bar ley, 25s to 355; oats, 16s to 23s ; beans, 30s to 40s; peas, 30s to 38s. Fat hogs, Os Od to Os Od ; porkers, Os to Os per score.

GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, MAY 31.—The numbers at nur market to-day were —oxen, 649 ; sheep, 534; lambs, 17 9 . We were well supplied with good cattle; prices much the same as last week. Best ox beef 50s per cwt, second quality 45 5 per ditto, cows and bulls from 20s to 44s per ditto. Best black faced wethers, in the fleece, 6id per lb; white-faced ewes and hogs, shorn, 5d to *per ditto; lambs, ready sale, from 8s to 22s per head. Part of cattle turned out unsold. BELFAST, MAY 31.—Wheat, at market, sells at former prices. Store lots of home grown sell at 10/ to 101 55 per ton, whilst foreign is a slow sale. Petersburgh, 81 15s to 9/ss; Odessa, 9/ 10, to 101; French and Rhine, 9/ 10s to 106 Baltic and American, 10/ 5s to 111 10s per ton. Flour-- Prices are various, and sales slow. American barrels a free sale at 24s to 255. Barley unchanged in value. Oats sell freely at rather more money. Oatmeal continues a slow sale at the prices noted on Friday. Indian Corn is in good demand at an advance of 5s to lOs per ton. Yellow, 81 10s to W per ton ; white, 5s less. CORY, JUNE I.—The arrivals of foreign grain this weak are few. Owing to this fact, and the improvement in the article in the Liverpool market, we have a brisk trade in Indian corns and such an advance in value as to bring prices almost on a level with those which were obtainable before the late large arrivals took place. The supply of home-grown grain is ex ceedingly small, and prices are nominally the same. Some parcels of foreign wheat have changed hands at rates (if Rol alteration in value can be quoted) in most instances in favour of the buyer. Today, however, the market is firmer. A few sales, also, of oats, have been made in the out-ports at 1059 d to lls per barrel, tree on board, being about the price of last week. The business done in flour has been a limited one, the purchases made having been confined to the supply of the im mediate wants of the trade. Stocks in bakers as well as factors hands continue low, so that we look naturally for a speedy movement in the trade. Indian corn is the only article in which any buoyancy has been manifested. We have to note accordingly not only a good amount of business passing, but an advance in the price of the article of fully 2s 6d to 53 per ton. We quote its current value to-day 8/ lOs to 81 15s per ton. We experience an improved demand for Indian meal also, at a nearly similar advance' Flour—Firsts 14s Od to 14s 6d ; extra 153 Od, seconds, 13s Od to 13s 6d; households lOs to 12s ; thirds 8s to Ide per cwt.
