From the German of Dr. PICKFORD. With an Introduction by the Editor, containing a complete exposure of the system of terrorism and extortion pursued by the advertising quacks of the metropolis towards those who are credulous enough to seek their aid. " Dr. Fickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi i;l contributions to German medical dterature. This is the first caste, he informs as, that he has addressed himself to the nou-medi sal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any )they equally flagrant evil which it may be in his cower to cor rect."—London Medical Gazette. " The tribe of ' Quiet Sympathisers,' and ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book tould find its way into the hands of those who suffer from the corn plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would pa saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of less importance, though it is that which the quacks most "prize— much m0ney......

We have not understood that, according to the law of England, a thief is to be allowed to escape if he can prove that the prosecutor is a cheat - . The law, we take it, would say that both, if convicted, ought to be punished, not that either ought to go free. Again, within these few days we have seen a laboured article in one j3urnal deprecating. the exaction of excessive bail in such cases, as if it were not the duty of the magistrate to proportion the b a il t o th e means of the accused ; and an equally labour e d art i c l e i n anot h er, grave ly arguing that there is no mora l o bli gat i on to prosecu t e a party suspected of theft wh o has occupied a respectable posi tion in society. The writers of the anonymous letters, the counsel who showed an inclination to adOpt such a desperate line of defence; and the writers in the news papers referred to, may have no knowledge of each other. Their co-operation may be entirely accidental and fortuitous. It is evident, however, that they are all labouring to a common end—to quash inquiry ; and that the quashing of inquiry would be tantamount to a defeat of justice. If the accused is innocent, justice re quires that she shall be exculpated in the face of day, by means that leave no uneasy suspicions as to what were the real facts of the case ' • if guilty, she' ought not to escape merely bec ause _the temptation to which she yielded must have been less in her case than in that of a needy person. We have no fears as to the result of the trial. We have perfect confidence in the shrewdness and integ rity of twelve English jurymen. They will know how to banish from their minds any allegations or dis .cussions they may have heard before they entered the jury-box ' and to decid e upon th e ev id ence th ere brought before them exclusively. But in the name of common sense and common morality, we must record our protest against the mischievous fallacies that have been ventilated on thapt•esent occasion. Some have argued that it is impossible for a rich person to commit a theft, because they can have no motive. Are men to disbe lieve their eyes, because it is difficult to conjecture what can have influenced an offender to act as he has done ? The guilty fact having been proved, the guilt of the per petrator is established : it is for metaphysicians, not for judges or juries, to puzzle their heads with curious in. quiries about motives. If a man kills another, is he to escape scot-free unless the prosecutor can show what object he proposed to attain by committing the murder ? Again, we are told that thefts committed \ by wealthy persons can only be attributed to insanity, and that in sane persons are not responsible for their actions. There is in this argument a fallacious play upon words. Psy chologists call every person insane who labours under mental disease of any kind or degree. But it is not every kind or degree of insanity that can or ought to exempt culprits from punishment. The object of punish. ment is to afford a motive to abstain from crime to those in whom the natural motives for such abstinence are wanting or too weak. A man who may be unable to control an irregular desire may be induced to desist from its indulgence if he knows that he will be punished for it. All that is required in any man to render him amenable to punishment is that he shall be able to com prehend that punishment will be the consequence of his committing a prohibited act. There are mental diseases which render men incapable of comprehending this, and they who are visited by them are justly exempted from punishment. But mere violence of desire and deficiency of self-control, though they indicate a diseased state of mind, do not necessarily constitute insanity in the eye of equity or the law. This plea of. insanity has of late been grossly abused in criminal eases, and in the interest of public morals and public law the abuse must be checked. riAPPIN'S SUPERIOR TABLE KNIVES, as made for the Crystal Palace, Sydenham ; handles cannot possibly become loose : the blades are all of the very first quality, being their ovn Sheffield manufacture.

We are bound to confess to our readers, that in "well informed" circles, and even amongst persons likely to know, the belief prevails that the visit of M. Drouyn de l'lluys to this country bad for its object to obtain a direct understanding with the British Cabinet, in order that, with authority, he might go to Vienna, and restrain the peace-at-all-price propensities, of which, it is said, manifest signs have been given by our noble plenipo tentiary at the conferences in that city. We do not pre tend to affirm positively that this opinion is incorrect as to the real object of the French Minister for Foreign Affairs in visiting London, and afterwards so rapidly proceeding to' Vienna ; but, we confess, we have our doubts. For various reasons, we do not believe that the Emperor of the French is so decidedly adverse to a peace as the truth of this report would indicate. There are many reasons, some sufficiently obvious, whyhe may not be disposed to prolong the war ; whilst the viaduct of our own Government is perfectly unintelligible, if it be not explained by their confident hope of a speedy pea'ie. We think that conduct, under any circumstances, utterly inexcusable, and even specially calculated to de feat their own object—if peace be that object--ebecause the best chance of inducing Russia to consent to fair terms of peace undoubtedly lies in convincing her that England is well prepared to continue the war, and has not relaxed in sny essential preparations. But still, be lieving as we do that the Palmerston Ministry Es deep! ) , imbued with the same notions as Lord Aberdeen's, and knowing as we also do that both Lord Aberdeen him self and all his late colleagues are still of opinion that he is a much maligned and undeservedly condemned man, tl:at he is really endowed with statesmanlike qua lities of a very high order, and that he has not been so very wrong after all—knowing all this, it is only to be expected that those who hold , these opinions will hold on in the same disastrous course, and that the nation will be rewarded with its na'Aral fruits. That course was, as we have constantly pointed out, to place im plicit confidence in the success of negotiation, and to neglect all the precautions which sound policy would dictate to provide for its failure. This, indeed, is the one only intelligible explanation of the neglect by the Ministry of all efficient preparation for a Crimean campaign, in season, so that something effectual may be accomplished in time. Lord Palmerston and his colleagues must be confidently trusting that that campaign will prove unnecessary. Not that we think this trust any justification of such neglect, but it is the only explanation which we can imagine of a course which will not prove the less fatal because it is so ac counted for, nor the less inexcusable because it is adopted in spite of the lesson which their past failures ought to have taught our rulers. If, however, the Government really believe that the war is to be carried on, we ask, are then) any indications that it is their intention to bring it to a satisfactory settlement by the extent and efficiency of their prepara tions ? Have they contrived so to support Lord Raglan as to enable him, during these precious weeks of spring, to strike some decisive blow ? Rather, is it not well known that he is left so that the utmost which he can do is to maintain his own, and that with his present means it is idle for him to attempt to wrest any advan tages from the enemy. We therefore do not scruple to avow that we much doubt whether the reported object of M. Drouyn de l'lluy's visit to this country is the real one. We may be mistaken—we would fain hope that we are, but this we know, that if the war is to be prolonged in consequence of the proceedings of M. Drsuyn de l'Huys, then there is no punishment too severe for those who, expecting that contingency, have neglected the essential means for meeting it with efficiency. It is now nearly three months ago that we ventured to advise our countrymen as to the course which they should pursue. We told them—first, to get rid of Lord Aber deen and his colleagues ; secondly, to see that a really able man, who understood his business, was placed at the head of the War Department ; thirdly, to have a First Minister and Chancellor of the Exchequer who would negotiate such a loan as would prevent the efforts of the War Minister from being► unduly crippled ; fourthly, to get such a man as Herbert Edwardes in some post of great influence at the seat of war ; and lastly, to place in a state of efficiency the constitutional forces of the country. These were the recommendations which we then ven tured to give. The first has been most incompletely carried out. The second has been adopted in much the same spirit as the first. The third and fourth have been wholly disregarded ; and as for the last, the actual state of the militia affords but too sad an answer. But we ask our readers to pause, and to reflect, whether, had this practical advice of ours been taken, the country alas ! muc h precious time has been lost, which is would not, with God's blessing, have been in a totall different position from that in which it has now the misy fortune to find itself ? At present we can do no more than to repeat it ; it is applicable now as it was then-- only, irrecoverable. LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 6, 1855. THE MILITIA ARRANGEME NTS AND EM BARRA SSMENTS. We have(lilonoertthweiTeeinhtea3dol yesterday.) once occasion to remark on the embarrassments which have been created by the confu sion of purposes and objects perv a di ng t h e arrangements made with regard to the Militia. It w ill be remembered that originally this force was not called out on the pre sumption of any such contingencies as have actually occurred. It was designed at th a t ti me to constitute e home force especially, a force which was to be enrolled on certain easy and attractive conditions of service, and which was to be called into activity in case of our own shores being exposed to attack. The idea of a great fo reign war, involving the despatch of numerous batta lions to a distant part of Europ e, and necessitating the aid of the Militia in keeping up the strength or sharing the duties of the regular army, was not then en tertained. It happene'l, however, that a very shot t time after wards these obligations disclosed themselves, and, while apprehensions of attacks upon our own e)asts seemed to be set at ret, a Ilrge and sudden demand was made for soldiers to be despatched on service abroad. The militia therefore was embodied under circumstances differ ing from those first anticipated, the men were invited to volunteer into the line, and some of the regiments have even been sent, with their own consent, upon foreign ser vice. This naturally created a geed deal of perplexity, in asmuch as, though no breach of faith was either com mitted or intended, many men unavoidably found them selves in positions upon which they had not reckoned when they enlisted. A further and more striking proof of these cross-purposes has been since given in our military intelligence. In many of the militia regiments the men, availing themselves of the discretion secured to them by the terms of their engagement in 1852, have declined fur ther service for the year, and have been released accord ingly in numbers sufficient to reduce.the corps in ques tion to little more than skeletons. Thus, at the very time when it is most desirable that the strength. of our land forces should be kept up, we are losing the services of men already trained and brought to a respectable state of military efficiency. " It cannot b o de n i e l th a t thi s i s , AO f a r, an un- fortunate occurrence, but there is nothing in the circumstance which need entail any material difficulties, nor do we see the smallest reas in for regretting'the policy which has been pursued. Of all conditions the one most imperative in .these proceedings was that not tho'slightest suspicion should attach to the good faith observed by the country in its dealings with the volun teers. When once it • had been determined —as, with undoubted wisdom, it was—to abandon the old methods of,coercion, and to rely entirely upon the spirit and patriotism of the population for filling the ranks 'of the militia as well as bf the army, nothing was more indis pensable than that this spirit should be encouraged and maintained by liberality and justice on the part of the State. TO have exacted from any volunteer more than he had thought himself bound to give, or to have left him in a position into, which he could have fancied himself entrapped, would have been to destroy our resources for. the future by deterring recruits from what they might consider an ambiguous service. This result has been escaped, nor can any militia man now say that be has been detained on duty beyond the terms of his enlistment, as understood by himself, or that in volunteering for service he has, undertaken obligations of a more onerous character than he ima gined. Although, moreover, the force at the immediate disposal of the country may have been thus weakened for the moment, the result will not be prejudicial in the end. The men who have retired will still represent so many trained soldiers available for those emergencies with a view to which they were-raised, and—they will carry with them to their homes a good- account of the service they have left. They will have no harsh treatment or illiberal dealing to com plain of, and they will offer in their own persons the best of all proofs of the good faith with which their engagements have been regarded. That such facts should be without their weight is not to be supposed, and we may anticipate, without much presumption, that the vacancies in these ranks will soon be filled, and that volunteering for the militia will proceed even more successfully than before. Looking broadly at the subject we may truly say that the country has little reason to be dissatisfied with its militia volunteers. The regiments, in most cases, were well and rapidly filled, and the young recruits, after a short period of training, displayed every promise of military excellence. When the invitation was given to volunteer into the line it was accepted with extraor dinary spirit, nor should it ever be forgotten, when the actual-number of militia effectives is woken of, that the complements of many corps have been largely and con stantly reduced by the draughts thus made upon their strength. Again, when it was made known that the ser vices of militia regiments would be accepted for duty at certain foreign stations there was no lack of offers, nor did the militia fail us in this respect any more than in others. If the force bas not been maintained at its full complement, it has. been raised on unexceptionable terms, and without the slightes4 grievance inflicted on any class of the population ; it has made admirable pro gress in training, it has evinced the most patriotic spirit its responding to the calls made upon it, nor is there any ground fur surprise or discontent in the fact that some of its soldiers who bad enlisted on certain specified con ditions should, after the due observance of those con ditions, have been indisposed to extend them. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The ships left at Spithead after the departure of the main body of the Battle expedition shifted berths yester day under sail, anal formed two lines, as ordered, thus : Falcon, 14 (screw). Neptune, 120. Ariel, 9 (screw). Calcutta, 84. Cruiser, 16 (screw). Orion, 91 (screw). Centaur, 6 (paddle). St. George, 120. Pylades, 21 (screw). Powerful, 84. • The Geyser, 6, paddle, was ordered to take officers and men for the Baltic fleet in the Downs, and left last evening. The Driver, 6, paddle, will leave Spithead tomorrow, and will then also take supernumeralie3 to join the larger ships. The Falcon returned to Spithead on Wednesday night from the Channel. Rear-Admiral Baynes remains at Portsmouth to take out the third division ; but his flag-ship, the Retribution, will not be out of the hands of the engineer department until the 10th, and the shipwrights will not have done with her. She remains in the steam basin, with Admiral Baynes's flag al her mizen, and is being proceeded with as fast as possible. The Odin, 10, paddle frigate, is also in the steam basin., having new covers to her cylinders fitted, her old ones not being strong enough t.) contain the pressure Of the alditional power of steam generated by her new boilers ; ste will be refitted in this respect by the 10th. The Ruby, Pelter, and Grinder gun-boats are all in the bands of the dockyard at tifieers ; the latter, which came up from Cowes on Monday from the ship building yard of Messrs. Robert White, is in dock, being fitted out 4or the fleet. The Pelter is having moveable iron pates of a quarter of au inch thickness fitted on to the gunwale, and projecting above the bulwarks about eighteen inches, fur the protection of her crew from rifle bullets from without, when in close proximity with the enemy, and also the better to enable those on board to shield themselves while at rifle firing themselves. This vessel needed some new tubes for her boilers, but those sent to replace the defective ones are said to be fOur inches too short for her ! The Hastings, 60, new screw blockship, went out of har bour yesterday again to make a trial of her steaming properties at the measured mile. She went out with most of her weights on board, and drawing 22 feet. The mean of four runs showed an average speed realised of 6.7 knots—a result far beyond the most sanguine ex pectations of the scientific on board and ashore ; revolu tion of engines, 78 ; and the pressure of steam in the boilers, 551 b. The inexperience of the stokers alone prevented a better mean speed being realised, and there is no doubt that greater speed will be ultimately obtained. She victuals now 279 out of her intended complement of 600. The Ruby gun-boat was undocked yesterday. The Bellerophon, 78, landed her invalids yesterday morning at the dockyard jetty, and they were conveyed to the invalid depot by railway. The ship is now return ing stores, preparatory to being put out of commission. Her officers will be paid off, 'but the crew will be paid down, and after a fortnight's leave draughted for service, in the Baltid. None of her bulkheads or internal fittings are to be removed. We learn by electric telegraph from Deal that the Baltic fleet at anchor in the Downs yesterday comprised the following vessels :—The Duke of Wellington, 131, Royal George, 102, Nile, 91, James 'Watt, 91, Omar, 91, Exmoutb, 91, Majestic, 81, Cressy, 81, Colossus, 81, Hogue, 60, Blenheim, 60, Edinburgh, 60, Vulture, 6, Dragon, 6, Gorgon, 6, Basilisk, 6, Bulldog, 6. The Ajax, 60, was coming in. The weather being very fine, visitors were flocking into Deal by every train. The steam gun-boats Weser and Recruit sailed from Plymouth on Wednesday for the Black Sea. The paddle-wheel steamer Rosamond, 6, Commander Crofton, arrived in Plymouth Sound oa Tuesday evening from a cruise in the Channel. Her defects are to be made good with all despatch. The store-ship Melatnpus sailed from Plymouth on Wednesday morning for the Black Sea. • THE TRANSPORT SERVICE. The Great Britain steam transport came into Ports mouth harbour ypeterday morning to land her invalids. Telegraphic orders were issued yesterday for her to pre pare with the utmost despatch for the embarkation of 1,500 troops for the seat of war. The Cunard steamer Arabia, which S had been ordered to be in readiness at this date for the reception of cavalry horses at Liverpool, was yesterday prepared to embark them, but the horses had not arrived. After embarking. the horses at Liverpool, the Arabia will proceed to Dub lin, where she will take additional horses on board—her total complement being 200—which are intended to mount the 17th Lancers. Commander Tudor, R.N., who has been appointed to the command of a division of transports to sail from Liverpool, arrived at that port yesterday. He will to day hoist his pennon on board the Arabia. The hired screw st eam - s hi p J arrow, Capta i n M arsh, arrived at Plymouth on Wednesday to load Government stores for the Crimea. The Gibraltar steam-transport went alongside Ports mouth dockyard yesterday afternoon to disembark the few invalids she returned with ; there were only six wounded soldiers; the rest were men returning to their depots. She towed the Dunbar, full of sick and wounded, through the Straits of Gibraltar on the 28th ult., at which date the Thames steam-transport was beating in under canvass. The splendid new screw steamer Alma sailed from Liverpool yesterday with detachments of the 18th and 50th Regiments of Foot, from Dublin, on board. She was to call at Portsmouth for 1,163 troops and 43 officers, and would sail thence direct to the seat of war. Yesterday a new iron screw steam troopship, the As sistant, expressly built for her Majesty's service, was launched from the yard of Mr. John Laird, at Liverpool. She is 1,800 tons burden, and 400 h orse p ower , an d i s a sister s h ip to the Resolute, launched from the same yard about si x wee k s ago. The' Resolute is now ready fur sea. The Assistant will be fitted for the conveyance of horses, The emigrant ship Samamng, from Southampton, for Adelaide, which was injured in the Channel and placed in the Government dock at Keyhana, Plymouth; has been thoroughly repaired, and is now receiving her goods and passengers in the Sound. Mr. J. W. Bills, First-class Assistant Engineer R.N., is promoted to be Chief Engineer of the third class, and appointed to her Majesty's yacht Elfin. The Lords of the Admiralty have forwarded to Mr. W. H. Hawker, chairman, the sum of 100/. in aid of the Sailors Home at Plymouth. Contracts were entered into at the Royal 'William vic tuAlliniard,Plymouth, on Tuoschty, for tht, ;supply of SPIRIT OF TEE - PUBLIC JOURNALS. THE CASE OF MRS. RAMSBOTHAM. (From the Times of this day.) The case of Mrs. Ramsbotham, which has recently been brought before one of our police magistrates, is ra ther calculated to excite feelings of pity than to arouse the stern resolution of letting justice " have its course" at all events. The circumstances have atttained such a degree of publicity that, most unwilling as we are to cause any pain to the friends and relatives of this unfor tunate lady, it is impossible not to feel that a few obser vations upon it can scarcely add in the slightest degree to the poignancy of their grief, while they may hive the effect of calling public attention to a few considerations which may in fairness be urged in mitigation of the offence. It is, we trust, unnecessary for us to say that the position in society of the person accused does not in the minutest degree affect our judgment. There exists no reason why she should not be visited with the full rigour . of the law because she happens to be a lady ; but, on the other hand, she ought not to be Made a- victim to vulgar claptrap, and more severely judged than if she bad been in humbler circumstances, simply because she is a lady. Let the case be considered in a spirit not of vindictiv.dgess, but of justice. If her offence be so re garded, we can have no reasonable doubt that it will be held that hers is an instance of that not very uncom mon monomania which leads persons otherwise esti mable and well-conducted to pilfer articles of trifling value in obedience to the impulses of a diseased imagi nation. The fact is notorious that many persons of high rank and ample means have been affected with this strange disorder. Every one who is acquainted with London society could at once furnish a dozen names of ladies who have been notorious for abstracting articles of trifling value from the shops where they habitually dealt. Their modus operandi was so well known that on their return from their drives their relatives took care to ascertain the nature of their paltry peculations, in quired from the coachman the houses at which he had been ordered to stop, and, as a matter of course, reim bursed the tradesmen to the full value of the pilfered goods. In other cases a hint was given to the various shopkeepers at whose houses these monomaniacs made their purchases, and they were simply forewarned to notice what was taken away and to furnish the bill, which was paid as soon as furnished, and, as a matter of course, by the pilferer herself, without evidence of shame or emotion of any kind. All this is very shocking, but would any man in his senses who may be called upon to adjudicate upon the case of a woman who is so evidently out of her senses, determine that she is guilty of theft, in the legal sense of the word ? There is no thievish mind, for, indeed, mind is not concerned in the transaction. The unfortunate victim of the hallucination acts as com pletely under the dominion of a blind impulse as the raven which pilfers a glass bead or a silver thimble, as it may be, and hurries off with its useless trophy to hide it under a parcel of dead leaves, or in the most recondite corner of a dunghill. It will not do, even in law, always to argue back from acts to motives. The absence of mo tive must occasionally in right reason qualify the act.. We have not one word to say against the decision of the magistrate. He had no option, but acted as he was bound to act. The question of maniacal influence was obviously one which could only be left to the decision of a jury. When the case comes on for trial, we believe_ we fairly represent public opinion when we say that we sincerely trust it may be mercifully dealt with. It should not be forgotten that, even if punishment be deemed a suitable treatment for madness, this most un happy person has already been brought to the brink of the grave and to the verge of absolute insanity by the detection and exposure of her offence. Now, if any of our readers should for a moment be weak enough to suppose that our comments upon this case are inspired by the station of the person accused, we will straightway give them a most practical proof that considerations of this kind do not influence the judg ment of the Times. We have endeavoured to urge a few considerations in mitigation of the offence of one lady ; we will now proceed to hold up another to tLe most richly deserved reprobation. The person con cerned—for we will no longer dishonour the brighest word in the English language by applying it to her—is a Miss Emilie Frances Goi don, stated to be a daughter of a Scotch baronet, and the possessor of considerable pro perty. She was summoned before the petty sessions at -Kingsclere,- Hants, for torturing a pony. On the 23d of February she left her house at Baughurst in a pony phaeton for Kingsclera. The wretched animal, it ap p ars, did not get along the road fast enough to satisfy her impatience. She got out of her carriage, belaboured the poor creature about the head and neck with a thick stick, and, finally, thrust the end of the stick up its nostrils and into its mouth with great violence. A little further on the roal—the snow was lying deep all the time—she tied the pony up to the gate, and left it standing in the cold uncovered for a couple of hours ; this, however, was nothing ; we do not insist upon this point. Many: a brute in woms-n's dress is guilty of that modified 'degree of barbarity Vile worst remains to be told.-. On returning to her e.rriage this Miss Emilie Francis Gordon drew a knife from her pocket, and stabbed the pony several times, the poor creature plunging violently as it felt the blows. She had not yet completed her bloody work. When she reached her house at Baughurst she desired herstable-boy to hold the pony's head while she "served it out." She then drew a claspknife from her pocket, and, as the lad, with a feeling which might have put his brutal mistress to shame, had retired a few paces, unwilling to take share in her proceedings, she seized the reins with her left hand, and with the right "jobbed the knife" into the pony's nostrils and about its mouth. The blood flowed freely upon the snow. These allegations did not rest merely upon testimony ; the condition of the pony five weeks after the occurrence, covered as it was with wounds and stabs, fully confirmed the truth of these statements. Miss Emilie Gordon is, no doubt, entitled to be heard "in extenuation." Here is what she said : "Miss Gordon, in extenuation, declared that her poly being a confirmed ' jib,' she had been told of two cures — the one waste apply a hot iron to the animal's hocks, and the other to cut slightly the animal near the flank, and apply a little turpentine to the wounds. She admitted she had cut the pony, and that it was her intention to apply some turpentine next day. If it was wrong she was sorry, and would undertake not to de so again. She con cluded by remarking that sho was prepared to pay way fine that might be inflicted upon her." The decision of the magistrates upon the case was, that Miss Emilie Frances Gordon had been "clearly proved guilty of torturing a brute animal," and they accordingly fined her 5/. We cannot but say that a few months' imprisonment, with a few private whippings, administered by the hand of the stoutest woman in Hampshire, would have constituted a much more fitting punishment for Miss Emilie Frances Gordon. Such a wretch is not entitled to the privileges and honour due to her sex ; we cannot think of her as a woman at all. It seems that she appeared in court elegantly attired, and when the decision was made known threw down a 101. note, took her change, and walked off in the most unconcerned manner. Let us entreat of our readers quietly to compare the circumstances of these two cases, and to obser►e how unequally punishment is meted out even to ladies. In the one instance a poor lady whose mind, we doubt not, was already out of joint, is driven ntad by the exposure of an offence, which in ber case was probably no offence at all, and must soon make her appearance before a cri minal court in a most disgraceful position, whatever the result may be. On the other hand, we have a kind of female Greenacre, who flaunts jauntily before a bench of magistrates, is proved guilty of a most barbarous crime, and flings down a bank-note as compensation for her offence—just as if she had been purchasing a new dress at Howell and James's, or any other fashionable establishment in town. (From the Daily News of this day.) Our readers will have learned from our police reports that a lady of ample means, and respectable station, has re cently been arrested and held to bail on a charge of theft. It is the general practice of the English press to abstain from comment on criminal charges till after trial for fear of prejudging the accused. The observance of such a rule seems more than usually desirable in a case so peculiar as that to which we have alluded. The inci dent is of a nature so provocative of idle gossip that all care ought to be taken to shield the accused, and the friends of the accused, from avoidable and painful pub licity. Unfortunately, however, the course pursued by certain silly and officious persons renders it impossible in the present instance to abstain from comment upon some of the accidental accessories of the case. Anonymous letters have been addressed to the magis trate who held the accused to bail, threatening him with the anger of the Prime Minister for his conduct. Anony mous letters have been addressed to the prosecutor, threatening him with loss of custom if he persist in his prosecution, and suggesting a compromise. Anonymous letters alone are, in general, utterly undeserving of notice, but we must take in connection with these the line of defence which the counsel for the accused seemed dis posed to adopt before the police magistrate, and articles which have appeared in one or two of the journals.

By the arrivl,l of the- Penimmlar and Oriental Coin- paoy 4 stes.m-ship Euxine at Sout'iamptou we have the following items of naval and military intelligence from Gibraltar : -The British steam-transport Edina, seven days from Lon !or, arrived at Gibraltar on • the 26th ult., wth some firemen of the London Bii;:a,l3 on b art), together it 4 the fire-engines sent out to protect the hospital at Scutari. The new steam-vessel Prapel ler, laden with fodder for the horses employed on the Ba!aklava ILilway, arrived at Gibraltar the-same day. The steam-transport City of Aberdeen arrived at Gib raltar on the night of the 27th ult. from Woolwich and Plymouth, laden with huts for the British army in the Crimea. There were also on board 35 surgeons and dressers for the different hospitals in the East. The City of Aberdeen encountered stvere gales all the way to St. Vincent's. The steam-transport Volunteer, with stores, for Scutari, left Gibraltar on the night of the 27th. The British schooner Ads, 24 days from London, with a cargo of wines, spirits, &c., bound to Scutari, put into Gibraltar on the 29th ult. with loss of sails and other damages, having experienced heavy westerly gales since leaving the Isle of Wight. The British steamer Caro line, eight days from London, with Government stores for Smyrna, put into Gibraltar on the 28th ult., with her machinery out of order. - The British. 'steam-trans port Sea Nymph, which left Constantinople on the 15th ult. with invalided officers for England, arrived at Gibraltar on the 30th. The British steam-transport Black Sea also arrived from London with medical stores for the hospitals at Scutari. The British Crimean Rail- Way steamer Lady Alice Lambton, from Balaklava and Malta arrived at Gibraltar on the morning of 30th ult. The Sea Nymph steamer, which arrived from Constan tinople and Malta on the 29th, left during the night for England. The following invalided officers are passen gers on board :—Lieutenant-Colonel Deverell, 90th ; Captain Bourne, 41st; Lieutenants Bennett, 63d, Waldy, 46th, Borton, 9th, and Mr. Thompson, of the Commis sariat. The Lady Alice Lambton with a number of invalided navvies from Balaklava, likewise pursued her voyage to Plymouth at 5 p.m. The Caroline steam transport, with stores for Smyrna, having had her ma chinery put in order, and the Black Sea (steamer), laden with medical stores, from London for Scutari, finished coaling during the night, and left for the eastward on the 31st. The Panola, sailing transport ship, put to sea from Gibraltar on the 31st ult. for England, having had the - defects in her rudder made good. The steam transport Eagle arrived at Gibraltar from the East the same morning. MILITARY. Yesterday the detachments of the Household Infantry Brigade, under orders for the seat n i t war, and for the depot forming at Malta, were inspected with regard to their service kits, which are much lighter, more compact, and consist only of such articles as cannot well be diepen-el with by a soldier when in the field or on active service. Where any deficiency of the necessaries required by the regulations existed they were immediately supplied, as it is uncertain how soon the mon may be ordered to embark ; but, according to present arrangements, they will not pro ceed to their destinations until the latter part of this month. The total number to embark is 1,130 men, ex clusive of buglers and drummers—viz., 400 for the 3d Battalion of Grenadier., from the Tower and Wellington barracks ; 350 kr the Ist Battalion of Coldstrearns, from St. George's Barrack. ; and 380 for the lot Battalion of the Scots Fusilier Guards, from Portman-street bar racks; 500 of the above wll be landed at Malta, and form a depot at Valetta. The remainder (630) will pro ceed to the Crimea to reinforce the brigade before Se bastopol. On Thursday Dr. Gore medically inspected a draught of the Royal Artillery in Limerick, for duty in the Crimea, arid they have left for their destination. The Royal Artillery at Ballincollig have received an order for immediate readiness to procesd at a moment's notice to the East. A. large number of Irish-soldien, belonging to different regiments, who had been wounded in the recent battles in the Crimea, arrived at the Noith•wall, Dublin, by the Duke of Cornwall on Tuesday night. The poor fenows were treated with the greatest kindness!, ald at teLtion wag paid to their w ants. On Wednesday a large number of gentlemen visited the invalids, who seomel to feel deeply gratified at the kindneis with which they _ _ have beer; tr..ated, and the sympathy and admr.ttion ex pressed towards them by their countrymen. A 1 the ex pense,: incurred by those gallant soldiers in proceeding to their respective homes throughout the country will be defrayed by the Governinent. A detachment of the Bth Hussars with a draught of horses arrived in I,:eds on Wednesday evening from York, on the way to Liverpool to embark for the East. After receiving their billets, they received a route, at 10 o'clock at night, to proceed to Liverpool immediately, as the transport was ordered to sail at 8 o'clock on Thursday morning. They immediately aesemb'ed in the yard of the Wellington-street Railway station ; but so imperfect was the provision for their transit, that several of the horses and men were in Leeds at half-past 9 the following morning. It was necessary to send many of the horse-boxes to and from Liverpool before the whole of the animals could be removed. THE MILITIA. At least 150 men of the Worcestershire Militia de manded last week to be paid off at once. It is believed, however, that so considerable a number are willing to take, or have already taken, the extra bounty that the regiment on its reassembling will muster at least 450 strong, and be in much better plight than most of the regiments in other counties. The Lieutenant-Colonel commandant, the Marquis of Conyngham, has joined at head-quarters and taken com mand of the Prince of Wales Donegal Militia. The noble marquis purposes visitingpersonally his extensive estates in Donegal, for the purpose of enrolling volunteers for his regiment. The regiment now musters nearly 400 rank and file. All thoughts of moving the Donegal Re giment to Enniskillen have been finally abandoned ; it is expected that the first march will be to the Curragh, Kildare. On Thursday, the 29th ult., the sth Royal Lancashire Militia were formed in square, when Major Chambre, in the absence of Lieutenant-Colonel Towneley, made a spirited address, as did also the adjutant, Capt. Fenton, the circular letter from the Horse Guards having been previously read. The men were told that they would have ample time to consider whether they would continue with the regiment, or, having completed their 56 days' training, would then retire. In the afternoon parade the captains asked such men of their companies as had en listed previous to the 12th of May, 1854, to step out and re-sign their attestations, and receive the additional bounty of 20s. Colonel Towneley also liberally offered each man a week's pass to see his friends. The strength of the regiment at the time was 715 of all ranks, in cluding 355 who had enlisted before the 12th of May last. 240 of those to whom the circular letter applied immedi ately stood forth, and signified their intention to stay with the regiment. The remaining 115 took advantage of the permis:ion granted to return to their homes. The present strength of the regiment is 630 ; a number of fine young recruits have been brought in during the week by the men who were allowed the week's pass to visit their friends. Several of those who went home after their period of train ing have returned, stating that in their respective loca lities they were received with manifestations of displea sure for having left their regiment ; and it is expected that most of these men will return after Easter. Dur ing the training of the sth 131 volunteers into the line have been approved ; of this number 43 have gone into the Coldstream Guards. The commanding-officer of the West York Rifles, who have been in training at Pontefract for some weeks past baying received an order from the Horse Guards to al low all men of the regiment who enlisted prior to the 12th of May, 1854, to return to their homes, they hav ing completed the 56 days' training, according to the terms of the act of Parliament under which they en rolled, the greater part of the men have signified their intention of leasiing, notwithstanding the offer of a fresh bounty of U. to induce them to remain. The ISt Devon Militia has lost a considerable number of its men, in consequence of their having availed them selves of the opportunity given them to return home at the expiration of 56 days' drill. When it left Exeter for Newport the regiment was between 500 and 600 strong. Of that number 150 have returned home 0 , Exeter, though it is expected that many of them accept the it. bounty, and be re-attested. The very large proportion of about 250 have already, it is said, been re-attested. Lieut. Davy, who has been stationed in Exeter for the purpose 'of recruit,ng, has succeeded in obtaining a somewhat large number of volunteers. The men have just appeared in their new tunic and shako. The East Kent Militia left Woolwich yesterday for Portsmouth, where they are to embark for Malta. No less than 170 men of the Hampshire Artillery Militia have demanded and obtained their diqchar4e. About 300 of the men of the 3d West York Militia now stationed atßichmond barracks, Dublin, have returned to their homes in the West Riding of Yorkshire within the last day or two, flaying claimed their discharge under Lord Panmure's order respecting militiamen who enlisted prior to the 12th of May, 1854. This regiment has been embodied about one year, and, after being at Berwick for a few weeks last May, were transferred to their present quarters, where they have attained a high degree of discipline, and elicited the commendations of every inspecting officer who has reviewed thew. tip wards of the required number of 540 volunteers bad given in their names for foreign service, and an order for their removal was daily expected, but of this num ber many have refused to fulfil their new engagements on finding that they could claim their discharge for the pivot yehr, foul they were. enabled to wake this re, ~~~~~ - 7 tractation as they had not taken the new oath prescribed to volunteers for foreign service. This step on the.part of so large a proportion of the regiment bas for a time completely destroyed its efficiency, but active measures are being taken to recruit the strength of the corps. The 21 West York Militia, now at Sheffield, which to the number of 600, have volunteered for foreign ser vice, has received its route to proceed to Portsmouth for embarkation for the Mediterranean. On Wednesday evening 370 of the Cambridgeshire Militia left Dublin by the steamer Princess, for their re• spective homes, their time of service having expired. SEPTENNIAL TITHE 00111 MUTATION AVERAGES. TO THE EDITO R OF THE SUN.

V. The perfect accuracy of this statement - I now beg to confirm for the Patlsfaction of your rel,lerF,~ as it has been called in quest Ton in a lettir published in the Re cord, of the 26th - ult., signed by the Rev.

Hind, in his letter; alludes to this difference as an error of computation, whereas the difference is really in the septennial average • prices, over which the authority of Parliament alone bas control. The omission of small decimal quantities in the average prices fropi time to time during the seven ' years, or of the fractional parts of a farthing in the price per bushel, clearly tend to diminish the valuation of the rent charge ; but the annexed clauses of the Tithe Commutation Act will no doubt satisfy your readers - that I had no alternative but to take the prices as pub lished in the London Gazette as the basis of my annual tables.—Yours, • CHARLES M.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCIIIT.-KINGSTON APRIL 4. DBEWETT AND WIFE V. ROBERTS. This was an action to recover damages for an assault committed upon the female plaintiff. The defendant in this action was engaged as a private tutor in several respectable families, and he resided in a, cottage at Clapham. The plaintiff was an omnibus con ductor, and he and his wife occupied a portion of the same cottage, and the wife had to wait upon the defend ant, being engaged for that purpose in Noiember last,. The wife of the plaintiff, a young but by no means pre- - possessing woman, who appeared very far advanced in pregnancy, was the principal witness for the plaintiff, ' and according to her evidence very shortly after she went into the defendant's service he made improper overtures to her dining the absence of her husband, and committed on several occasions most disgusting assaults upon her person. She said that it frequently happened that she was nearly in a fainting state before the de fendant would desist from his attacks upon her, and it was for theco assaults that the present action was brought to recover damages f•om the defendant. The witness underwent a very long and severe cross examination by Mr. James, and in the course of it she gave several contradictory statements upon many im portant matters. She represented that the assaults by ' the defendant sometimes took place twice in a day, and . that although she was injured a good deal she made no complaint to her husband for several weeks. A great ' many of the facts that were elicited were, of course, not , of a fit character to be published. In the course of the - cross-examination the witness referred to some papers, and upon the counsel for the defendant insisting upon their being given up she became very ill and was re moved from the court. Shortly afterwards, a medical gentleman wh att , nded upon Ler informed his lordship that the witness ras very ill, and would, ii all probabi-, lity, be immediately confined, and it was therefore quite impossible for her to undergo any further examination. Serjeaut `6lles, under these circumstances, applied fur a postponement of the cause. Mr. Chantb.rs objected to this course being taken, on the ground that it would be unjust to the defendant, swin2se character was so deeply involved in the inquiry. Thejot y slated that they were all unanimous in their opinion that they cou:d not rely upon the evidence of the witness, and had made up their mii.ds to find a verdict for the defendamt. - Baron Platt upon this expressed an opinion that it would be unjust - to adj , inrn Cie case ; for he :aid that in this inquiry, as i.n a charge of felonious assault, the woman was almost the only witless. Serjevnt She° then elected to 'be nonsuited. - • 1.1 I IiKET NEWS-(THIAS DAY.) _¢-- SMITHFIELD.
