This was a summons to show cum why the defend ant should not be committed for not complying with an•order of this Court. Mr. Buchanan appeared for the defendant, and pleaded that he had petitioned the Insolvent Court and obtained his interim order. He had not., however, bad a first hearing in consequence of the vacation at the In solvent Court. The defendant handed in his protection dated 20th July, ani a copy of the debt inserted in his schedule. The p!aintiff said the defendant on the 12th July was summoned to this Court, and offered to pay the debt by instalments of . 1/. a month, which he accepted. The insolvent said he did so, intending at the time to apply to the Insolvent Court, but he was not sure he should obtain his protection. . _ His Honour said there could be no doubt but for that promise of payment which was made, to gain time to petition the Insolvent Court, lodgment would have been given at that time for the immediate payment of the amount claimed, As a general rule, he did not inter fere in, insolvent cases, but only where he saw fraud contemplated. In this Case only eight days elapsed after the judgment on the defendant's TrAnise, be fore he petitioned the Insolvent Court, and obtained his interim order, and he should therefore put in force the epecial prUvision in the County Court Act applicable to these cases, and ordered the defendant to be committed fJr seven days. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. IMPORTANT TO MARINE STORE DEALERS.—Mr. Alderman Wire, on taking his seat this morning, said he had fully considered the objection raised by Mr. Lewis, in the case of Taylor, the marine store dealer, whose case we reported yesti-rday, and he was reluc tantly compelled to yield to' the arguments of Mr. Lewis and dismiss the summons. There could be no doubt the act of Parliament was primarily passed for the prvteetion of the mercantile marine, and persons having stores lying about their premises relative to shipping. It was a great omission it did not apply to the purchase of every description of articles, but under the oh cum stances he had no alternative but to dismiss the sum - mons, at the same time cautioning the defendant, and all those who dealt in marine stores, frlm making that a cloak for the reception and purchase of general at ticles of stolen i.roperty. GUILDHALL. UTTERING FORGED LETTERS OF CRITDIT.—The two Spaniards, Coda= and Ma,sip, were placed before Alderman Films for final examination, charged with obtaining two sums of 1,1001. and 7001. by means of forged letters of credit. Mr. Mullins appearel for the prosecution, and Mr. Wontner for the prisoners. Mr. Mullins stated that since the last examination of the prisoners he had bad an interview'with the French Minister of Justice, at Paris, and had succeeded, in in tercepting two letters containing the whole of the money obtained by thesa forged letters of credit, with the excep tion of 5,000 f. The money was forwarded to Paris in two letters, addressed in Masip's handwriting to him, Poste Restante, Paris. The letters were posted at the General Post•office in London, after seven o'clock on the night of the prisoner's apprehension, by Masip, and after Cortaza was in custody. The evidence of the gentlemen connected with the Spanish houie , ,.whose names the prisoners had flrged to the Ittter4 of credit having been examined, and some other evidence given, The prisoners were committed for triAl. BOW-STREET. MORE POST-OFFICE ROBIWRIES. —This morning a middle-aged man, named Richard Walker, a sorter in the General Post-z,ffice, was placed at the bar, charged with stealing two letters supposed to contain money. Mr. Peacock, the Post-office solicitor, attended for the prosecution. Mr. Willis Clara stated that he resided at Mile-end, and was an inspector of letter-carriers. The prisoner was a sorter in the General Post-office, and was on duty this morning, when his attention was called to the prisoner by the 'repeated pasages he made by the lift, and also at receiving let&rs from him out of the ordinary course. The lift co.nmunicated with the let ter-carriers' department and the inland department. He (witness) then gave instructions to see whether he travelled up in company with other persons or singly, and from information he had received he sent for the prisoner to attend him at 11;s private room, and upon his arriving he accused him of sculling letter , , and that he believed at that moment he had some upon his person. The prisoner denied the accusation, and stated that he bad no objection to be searched, but that he bad changed his coat during,the morning. &nee was then called, and he saw him (Sinee) take the two letters produced from the pri soner's pocket, which bore the day stamp. One of the letters was directed to Mr. K. Tuck, Great Western Stables, London-street, Pacidington, and the other to Mr. H. Toomer, 117, Lerrington—treet, Vanzha4-road, Westminster. On the letters beiiig produced, the pri soner said he knew nothing about them, and that some person must have placed them in his pocket. •The pri ioner had been in the service of the Post-office for nearly 15 years, and his salary was U. 15s. 9d. per week. Smee, one of the police-constables at the Post-office. stated that about 10 minutes past 8 this morning he was. called into Mr. Clare's office, and having searched the prisoner found two letters is the breast-pocket of his coat, which he handed to Mr. Clare. On asking the prisoner to account for their being in his pocket, he stated that he did not know the letters were in his pocket, and that some one mast have placed them there, as he had changed his coat early in the morning and left the one he then wore for some time under the stairs. The coat, an old black one, was then shown to Mr. Clare, who stated that the assertion of the prisoner was false, as he had not worn the black coat the whole of the morning. He then took the prisoner into custody. Cummins, one of the sorters, at the Post-office, said the prisoner and himself came on duty at 5 o'clock this morning, and his notice was specially directed to him by the repeated journeys he made by himself to the lilt, when there was room for him to ascend with other parties. The coat he had now on was the coat he wore the whole morning. He bad watched him the whole of the morning, and he could swear that the prisoner never changed his coat. The magistrate asked the prisoner what he had to say in answer to the charge, when he repeated that the letters must have been placed in his pocket by some . _ The prisoner was then remanded to enable the writirs of the letters to attend, but it was intimated to him that next week he would be committed for trial. Grace, a letter-carrier, was this morning fully com mitted to take his trial for Ftedling three letters. Charles Simpson, the Barnet letter-carrier, was also committed for trial this mirning for stealing a letter. THAMES. HORRIBLE CRUELTY TO A WlFE.—George Rood, a la bourer, a singularly ill-favoured, dis+.ipated-looking fel low, of No. 2, John-street, Charles-street, St. George in-the East, was brought before Mr. Ingham, charged with attempting to murder bis wife, Ann Rood, and throwing her from the first-floor window of her dwelling into the street. The priasecutcr, who VMS led ip'W court, and was in very weakly condition from loss of blood, sthted .that aer husband had long been in the pr.tctice of ill-using her. He came home last night drunk, and took he r child from her, and after throwing it across the room, commenced swearing at her, and kicked her. She went 4 :o the assistance of her child, and he said, " It's you I want. I have been waiting to.do this a long while, and I am determined to be strung up for you, and I shall not be satisfied till I have taken your life." He then took the chi!d from her again. She took it from him, and a struggle ensued, and he again kicked her and beat her She went towards the window, which . was broken, and .hrew up the sash, and, being fearful the child woulei be killed, she dropped it into the arms of a neighbour in the street, and called out "Murder." She was banging nut of the window, and calling on the neighbours to assist, when her husband. raided her by the heels and delibe rately threw her out of the window into the street. She was most fearfully bruised, and was rendered hiseusible. The poor woman, who was in great pain, here sobbed aloud, and was assisted to a chair. Several neighbours of the parties spoke to the brutal conduct of the prisoner, and said that he had often threatened to kill, his wife, and Mr. Field, an undertaker, said the prisoner was a most, brutal drut.ken scamp, con tinually inebriated : the wife 'was a sober woman and very industrious. Henry Groves, 251 K, said he beard scream of murder last night in John-street, and saw the woman hand her child to the people below. Directly afterwards the pri soner lifted her up and, using horrible imprecations, threw her out of the window. The prisoner on being called on for MI defence, said, in a sullen manner, "I have nothing to say." Mr. Ingham—Of all the a abominable and cruel cases of assault on woman it has been my lot to hear this is the worst ; and if the Legislature had given me the power to inflict a sentence of 12 months' imprisonment and hard labour, I would have enforced it in this case. I sentence the prisoner to six month►' imprisonment and hard labour, and at the end of that period he is to enter into sureties to keep the peace towards his much ill used wife, and all her Majesty's subjects for the space of 12 months. The prisoner was immediately sent away in the van to prison. MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) COVENT GARDEN.

Thursday's Debats contains the following notes!' or, the present occudation of the allied army, from!, the_pen of ColoneNt. ii e "The allied army, in possession of Sebastopol! and released froLn the stern and perilous labours 0/ the trendies, already sees before it, in the mere or, less distant future, new vistas of glory on the plains' of the Crim ea . - Alt before taking the field it will have to adapt itself to the new situation cre-ttedi! by its success, and to take in hand the work ofl organisation, supp os i ng t h at i t i s i nten d e d t o keep!! Sohasiopol, as appears probable. The follmving,i then, is a slight sketch of what has now to be done,! and of what is doubtless being done at this mo-i men t. "To explore the interior of Sebastopol, to ascer tain the state of the various localities, to purify and clear the town, examine the buildings with an eye to the lodgment of the troops, to bring in for the moment a few battalions which will place sentries where required and preserve good order, and to collect what inhabitants may, be left for the pur-, pose of employing them in removing the rubbish, the remainder of the army meanwhile remaining encamped in its positions. " To disarm all our siege batteries, and transport the guns, mortars, and projectiles on board ship ; to remove also all the sapping and mining tools, as likewise the gabions and earthsacks that may still he made serviceable ; and, lastly, to fill up all the. trenches. " To restore the place to a state of defence by' repairing its chief fortified acea, demolishing at the same time the superabundant works, that would compel us to leave in it too numerous a garrison. " Finally, to inspect the guns, arms, and other objects of war left by the enemy in the town, to make out a list of their condition, divide them among the allied powers, and carry them off, ex cept such as may be deemed useful for arming the place, the requisite changes being kept iu view. The military stores abandoned by the enemy in his precipitate flight must be immense, as General Pelissier has already announced. " Such, then, is at least the enumeration, though a very abridged one,, of what has to be done when taking possession of a captured fortress ; and we think there will be occupation of this,nature for a month. _ _ "It has been asked if Sebastopol is tenable so long as the Russians remain masters of all the forts on the north side which line the sea in front of the town. Undoubtedly it may be held in spite of this. We received balls and bombs in our roofless trenches, sheltered merely by parapets thrown up in haste, under the fire even of grape and mus ketry, and we did not on that account abandon the trenches. In Sebastopol we shall be sheltered from the balls by the walls of the houses—in deed, of several houses at once ; no fire of grape or musketry need be feared at the distance the enemy is now at (from 1,200 to 1,400 yards). As for the bombs, we may screen ourselves from them as the Russians themselves did against ours, by constructing strong hurdles with earth upon them. We cannot want the materials, since the Russians had not time to burn and destroy every thing in•this great city. It is true that the occu pation of the north by the Russians prevents our entering the roadstead and the port. But what need we of them, when we already possess the ex cellent harbours of Cape Chersonesus ? Have not our fleets already passed the winter without incur ring any danger in those waters ? " It has also been asked if the Allies will have to undertake, now or latter, the siege of the forts on the north side. There appears no absolute ne cessity for so doing. That would be binding our selves down again to labours slow and painful as those which have occupied us so long, and cost us so many efforts, so many men, and so much money. The key to those forts is in fact a victory ov,r the Russian army in the Crimea ; then they would fall of themselves, seeing that they must be instantly abandoned. Or, if the Russians choose to retain them still, a blockade and famine will compel them to surrender ; and this is a humiliation that Rus sia's pride dreads more than all the rest. The forts of the north side can consequently neither prevent our occupation of Sebastopol, nor can they thwart our operations in the interior of the Crimea, on account of their eccentric situation. We should not be surprised at their being blown up ,so soon as the Russian army is compelled to retreat from the neighbourhood of Sebastopol. " The respective position of the two armies re mains the same, and will do so until one of the two shall take the initiative of a movement that will force the other to manoeuvre in its turn. For the present, the allied army holds its strong posi tions on the Tchernaya, on the Fedukhine moun tains, on Mount Sapoune, and the table-land of Sebastopol, until the occupation of the town shall have been properly arranged, and its chief defences thoroughly repaired. It does not appear to have anything else to do at present. ' " The Russian army, for its part, occupies the excellent positions of Mackenzie, strongly en trenched and lined with redoubts like our own. On both sides the capability exists of receiving the attack with chances tolerably equal of serious resist• twee and success, and with the equal risk of losing a great many men. Tho Russians will probably continuo in observation before us within their strong positions until the allied army gives signs of some movement. But what will that movement be ? Shall we venture to attack in front the Mac kenzie heights, where- the road from Siwpheropol winds along ? Shall we penetrate into the heart of the Crimea by another route? If so, by what route, and when ? All these are premature ques tions. Let us avoid tracing our imaginary plans of campaign. Rather let us permit time to develop© the events, or if our imagination must needs out strip facts, the field of conjecture is open." iIIEHOIR BY COUNT ATESSELRODE. Besides the note to Prince Gortschakoff, given in another column, there exists a memoir on the situa tion of Russia.; by Count. Nesse!rode, a paper not strictly diplomatic, but composed for the use of the Czar'srepresentatives at foreign courts, and designed to give them the means of combating the prevalent. belief that Russia is too much exhausted to carry ou the war. Le Nord offers the subjoined analysis of this memoir from the pen of its Berlin correspon dent : A year ego Russia„ taken, sn to speak, by surprise, could not dispose of all her forces. Her troops had not then had time to take their stations along all her frnn tiers, from Archangel to the Black Sk-a and its Asiatic corifiees. Neither had she been able to take an th, iaterior all the measures necessary for resisting a fot miriable attack upon her sevsral extremities ; and yet she has resisted. Russia now disposes of all her troop= ; a rational levy has appeared as if by es chantinent, fully armed, mounters, and organised, for the purpose of replacing the regular regiments, where they were of secondary utility. The spirit of the nation has Come to the assistance of the Government, not alone in the equipment of this new and numerous military con• tingent, but even in the means of transport for the troop , , The loan that Russia contracted last year, notwith standing the interdict which her enemies thought fit to lay upnu it not only in their own countries, but even in the capita's of neutral countries, but nevertheless suc ceeded, and is now entirely paid up. Her financial credit, that index of a nation's resources, on the exchanges even of those very countries w hi c h are waging war against her, has remained, so to sreak, un shakeable. At the commencement of the war Russia might have feltsome trepidation respecting her commerce, but now she sees that she is sufficient to herself. Th blockade of her ports has not only failed to produce al those results which might for en instant have been ap prehended, but she has even been enabled thereby to a'- certain the greatness of her own resources, as also the rapid and marvellous progress made of late years by her national manufactures. Her interior commerce has con siderably increased, and her foreign trade has opened for itself a new outlet, which every day assumes vast di mensions. Lastly, Russia has been tried by one of those mourn ful and sad events which, far from weakening the coun try, has in a manner reanimatad it with fresh ardour. A change of reign has taken place ; a prince beloved and regretted has disappeared, leaving to his son the sacred inheritance, so resolutely accepted, of defending the national honour, even to the last extremity. This in heritance has been in part shared also by the entire nation, which, collected and united, has taken upon itself the task of enabling its new sovereign to enter into possession, and support the burthen of it, by sharing with him also the weight of its responsibility. Russia has done more ; nut merely bas she prepared to resist, and permanently resist, but she has found the possibility of carrying her arms abroad into the territory of that enemy who first declared war against her, and who is now, far more than herself, menaced and con miffed. Russia, its short, has now fallen ba ck u p on herself. f ;Is t si at s tsahnecmay in u the gi give greatere rfiidst o f which impetus sheto all her il a elements east,c a l cm, resigned but resolute , u ntil it may please her nemies to snake to her such proposals of peace a s she can subscribe to without giving the lie to her past history, and with out degrading herself for t he future. If her extremities A re attacked,' her heart is not, and its nature is su c h that it will blunt the keenest . liales that may attempt to pierce it. If we bestow a glance at the csnsequences, which these two years of war have had for the two great power;; allied against the 11 , 1,Siall empire, we shall see that a Eng land has lost her red , e, her brilliant, and costly arm r n aval prestige, her consideration at home and a hj i .: )ad - ; c o e rn n t p r s o ta m t i e s s e m d ,e statesmen; repudiated, annihilatedand t u h s e e d up P thott r v and f most e o rc rc i e r of her Parliament , and sapped tte principle national freedom. was at all times so prouil—that of ofwhich her freedom. We see how she has doubled in two years her income tax, increased the nunsher of her Ex chequer Bills, as likewise her • immense public debt, by t h e heavy cbaraes of a new loan. In France, if the present form of gnver *an i apron tacitly ent does not permit one to vifherone's wishes or coraplailato or griefs, - - 4:ae yet know that this war has already cast,her within thu siKtet; of two years 70,00 q of her cbil iiin, besides s,veial loans, that have wide 1 to her budget a debt of nearly five milli3rds: — As'for Turkey, these two years of war have sufficed to cause her disappearance, if not from the region of right, at all events fr.)m that of fact. By the admission her own allies, she has lost 160.000 trim If she nits an) rr en left, she has an army that no longer belongs to ber ; sire is obliged, in order to pro cure money, to pledge the revenue from Egypt and h air custom dues at Smyrna. In both Asia and Europe the allies have military occupation of her ; Corstaatinople and its keys are in the hands of the French, and Lord Rednliffe is endeavouring- to replace the Sultan. I do not (says the correspondent of Le Nord) pre tend to have given you in the above lines the exact text of the arguments made use of in the document of the Sc. Petersburg cabinet. But with the slight difference of a few facts and figures that have es caped. me, or which could not be given me, I think I have stated to you with tolerable accuracy ita meaning and tendency.

Mr. HUGH MILLER read a paper of considerable length on the Less Known Fossil Floras of Scotland; and Professor HARKNESS, on the Lowest Sedimentary Rocks of Scotland. SECTION D.-ZOOLOGY AND 13qTANY INCLUDING PHY SIOLOGt _ - Professor FLEMMING in the chair. The first paper read was on the effects of last winter upon vegetation at Aberdeen, by Dr. DICKIE, Professor of Natural History, Queen's College, Belfast. A report on Typical Forms for Museums, by Profes sor Henslow, was read by Dr. LANKESTER, in the tem porary absence of the author. Mr. R. PATTERSON exhibited a set of zoological draw. ingq, prepared for the Department of Science and Art. The other papers read in the section were the fallow. mg, viz. : Mr. E. J. LowE—On a Singular Mortality among the Swallow tribe ; and Dr. DUNCAN on the Impregna tion of Phanerogamus Plants. SECTION E. -GEOGRAPHY AND ETHNOLOGY. Sir JOHN RICHARDSON in the chair. Dr. SHAW read the report of the late expedition up the Niger and Tchadda rivers, altreased to the Lonla of the Admiralty, by Dr. W. Bahfour Baikie, R N., F RICHAZD CULL, Esq., read a paper " On some Water colour P rtraits of Natives of Van DI men's Laud." Dr. SHAW then read a paper by Dr. Barth, communi cated through the F. reign -office, and describing Tim buctoo. Before reading the paper, Dr. Shaw informed the meeting that Dr. Barth had je.t arrived in London in safety. The next paper was by J. B. Davis, F,S.A., " On the Skulls of the Ancient Romano." SECTION F. -- STATISTICS. Mr. MONCKTON MILNES, M.P., in the chair. Professor WALSH read a paper "On the condition of the Labouring Population ofJamaica, as connected with the pre'sent state of Landed Property in that District." Mr. W. NEWMARCH delivered a paper " On the Emi. .ration cf the last Ten Years from the United Kingdom and front France, and from Germany." Du-ing the la 4 five years Mr. Newmarch showed that 500,000 persons tnnuslly had ptssed from Eurone‘to the North American Continent and Australia ; 300,000 of these had gone from he United Kingdom, and the remainder from Central. Enron... The increase in our population was thus being annually drained off, and the result could not fail to have matPrial effects on the stare of the population in this country. Sixty or seventy per cent. of the emigration from the United Kingdom has been from Ireland. The dfect has materially raised the wages of the labourer. France would seem to have been but little aTcted by the desire to emigrate. Mr. Newmarch proceeded to advert to the wonderful progress of the colonies of North America and Australia—a profrees altogether without any parallel in the previous history of the world. Mr. YATES referred to the passion which existed in Switzerland for leaving their country for another, where they can acquire a small piece of ground. Mr. HEYWOOD said a deliberate system of religious persecution exists in some of the German States, which, to doubt, accounts for much of the emigration from that quarter of the globe. Mr. FARE remarked that the tide of emigration from Ireland was evidently subsiding. The Earl of HARROWBY said it was of great importance to promote emigration. No doubt emigration took away a great portion of the population, but then they became our customers, and we should rejoice that we are able to become the fertile mother of nations. Mr. NEWMARCH having briefly replied, The CHAIRMAN communicated to him the thanks of ,he section. Professor ALLEN BUCHANAN, of Glasgow, read a paper, "On the Physiological Law of Mortality, and on certain Deviations from it, observed about the com mencement of Adult Life." Dr. STRANG, of Glasgow, read a paper "On the Pro erees. Extent, and Value of the Coal and Iron Trade of the West of Scotland." Mr. NEWMARCH submitted a paper by John Glyde, ;un., , "On the Localities of Crime in Suffolk." rbe statistics went to show that the greatest number of ,riminals in that district came from villages, and not large towns. SECTION G.-MECIANICAL SCIENCE. W. J. DilAcQuoitx RANItINII in the chair. FAIRBAIRN, C.E., F. 11.5., read a provisional , eport "On the Strength of Iron,Plates," and one upon "Boiler Explosions," which were somewhat inconclusive on account of the limited time which had been permitted for experiment and observation.

They divided themselves into deputations to call upon the manufac turers. On their return they gave in their reports, which were to the effect that the manufacturers, in ge neral, were willing to advance their wages on condition that the weavers would only accept work from those who would pay the highest wages, and refuse to work for those who would not pay the advance. One company, in particular, Messrs. J. and A. Marshall, said they were paying 31d. for 1400's gingham, and were willing to pay more if others would do so. Another manufac. tnrer of white work put on id. per ell yesterday. Others said they would pay up in two or three weeks. O R the whole the weavers consider that their request will be fully realised in a short time. Resolutions were unanimously carried. 1. " That it is the mind of this meeting that the firms who refuse to advance be made known in all the die ponded executive to council our request . have tricts where they have work g oin g on, and the wea vors will m e instructed to turn the ir attention to those houses who uh w ork to do, it is necessary that all have , s , oc h o ai rd a i a s l l y th r e es the dist r icts be re quested to furnish pecuniary aid as earl y o rder to enable the council to ea as possible, in carry auTiciously begun." y out the w o rk s o The books of the society were gates from Auchterarder and audited by the dele gates and James M`Min Eaglesham— Andrew n —and found correct.

Looking, however, at the movements in the rate of discount, the fall has till been singularly limited, and is liuch as to show the perfect cmfideuce that exists throughout the country in the g. neral soundness of trade.. Consols for money, which left off 1.14 evening at 90 3 / 4 , were first quoted 90 to 4, and tbis was the cl , sing o ffi cial price, although f ora moment they touched 901. After regu lar, hours there was more flatness, and the final trans actions were at 903 for money and 90 3 / 4 to 1 for the 12th of October. The operations during the day were not extensive, but there was a continued demand for money, although to a I,IIR extent than was experienced a day or two back. The applications for discount at the Bank are very numerous, and, notwithstanding a fur ther improvement in the foreign exchanges, gold is still iu course of withdrawal, large sums being remitted, it is said, to Vienna for corn purchases on the Danube. Dull weather and a slight additional rise in wheat likewise t tided to increase the causes of depression. On the other hand, the notifications of fresh sums of gold on their route from Au s t ra li a , cou pl e d with the less severe accounts of the French losses before Sebastopol, were calculated to have a (10§tailiDg ildiaPP_Fe• 10( PP 100 100 100 all tile. 00 00 all all 23 ~i~ si Qti a all 15 I 00 21 20 50 20 25 21 - .•• ''..
