Our suspicions as to the treason of ARTHUR GEORGEY in laying down the Hungarian arms un conditionally at the feet of PASKEWITCH, are at length definitively confirmed. The name of this miserable traitor will henceforth be enrolled with MAROTO, of MONK, and of DUMOURIEZ. By his last act of double-dealing—the consummation of his prolonged intrigues—he has damned himself to ever lasting infamy. From this time forth and for ever he will be a horror and a scoff, and a hissing, and an abhorrence to all posterity. We have feared this for a long period ; and now all our fears are deplorably realised. For Louis KOSSUTH, the greatest, the noblest, the purest, the bravest of the Hungarians, in many respects the foremost man in all Europe, Louis KossuTu, the Dictator and for a while the Liberator of his fatherland, has pronounced his judgment upon the recent proceedings of GEORGEY. Even in the communication addressed to BEM announcing his abdication from power, KOSSUTH sufficiently inti mated the culpability of the once-honoured victor of Ofen when, informing the conqueror of Transylvania that GEORGEY, in the very crisis of affairs, proclaimed his intention no longer to obey but to govern, he exclaimed in such despairing accents, " I implored him to remain, at all events, patriotic and faithful to his country, and I ceded to him my place." England, Hungary, Europe, have seen how faithful and patriotic this man proved to his country, how his very iraugurative act on his accession to the Dicta torship was to deliver up the fortunes of the land of his birth unconditionally to the vengeance ofDespotism! But GEORGEY'S guilt has not been merely implied by the reproachful language wrung from the soul of the great KOSSUTH in the first moment of his supreme anguish and desolation. No! The voice of that illustrious hero has declared in the most explicit and emphatic terms the depth, and the darkness, and the atrocity of the treason' of this execrable renegade. In a letter addressed to Count CASSIMIR ESTERHAZY, the Commandant of Comorn, Louis KOSSUTH has asserted in tones that will resound through the trumpet of history the shame and criminality of his fellow-countryman. " My slender hopes," says he, "of being able, by resorting to extraordi nary measures, to give our cause a more favourable turn, have been wholly destroyed by the shameful ingratitude Qf GEORGEY ; for the sudden revelation and execution of his plans, which 1 have long perceived and feared, WAS A TREASON TO THE CAUSE OF THE NATION, and inflicted on one, and through me on the Republic, a deathblow." After that, who shall be insane enough to question for one instant the accuracy of the assertion that ARTHUR GEORGEY is a traitor ? Who shall be idiot enough to doubt that the gold of the 'Ural mountains has had something to do with the policy of so very base and ignoble a character ? KOSSUTH has said it. Hence forth the name of GEORGEY will be a byeword in the mouths of the people. Henceforth he will be loathed and anathematized as the assassin of liberty, and as the murderer of the nationality of the Hungarians. While the inexorable justice of public opinion is compelled to pronoun& itself upon the infamous au thor of such stupendous calamities as those which have recently befallen the Hungarians, the integrity of those illustrious men should not be forgotten, who, uninfected by the contagious turpitude of the epoch, have remained true, to the last moment, to the cause of this righteous and glorious Revolution. It was BEM who, though opposed by the preponderating strength of L Linens, was the first to hurry from the mountain ous regions of Transylvania to carry succour to the bead-quarters of the Magyars, then threatened doubly by the legions of HA vriAu and of PASKE.• WITCH, by the troops'of Austria and by the hordes of all the Russias. It was AULICII who not only marched in sudden triumph into the citadel of Raab, but carried dismay to the suburbs of Presburg, and panic even to the vicinity of Vienna. It was KLAPKA who, in the neighbourhood surrounding the unconquered garrison of Comorn, kept alive in the ago nies of a great emergency the fleeces of civic ardour, and by the influence of his splendid example induced the burgess to forsake his home and the peasant to leave his fields, to fight as soldiers in defence of their common independence. It was GUYON who, after raising the siege of Peter wardein, and routing the Croats under JELLA cuicu, prepared to direct his energies northwards against those who were yearning after his dis comfiture. It was DEMBINSKI who, besides devot ing his superb genius as a military commander to the contrivance of a plan of campaign, such as will (even in spite of the disastrous result of the treason of GEORGEY) be remembered for ever among the masterpieces of modern generalship, placed his life continually in jeopardy whenever he deemed that its exposure would be to the advantage of the holy cause he had espoused. But above all, end beyond all, in the estimation of contemporaries, a n d in the recollection of posterity, it is and will be felt that it was the immortal KOSSUTH who called into being this gigantic and glorious movement on the part of the Hungarians—it was KOSSUTH who was the soul, the voice, the genius, the head, the arm, the inspiration of the Magyar revolution. As such his memory will be preserved by the love of millions, through all generations, among the names of those wonderful men who have been the liberators of the multitude, who have suffered and fought in the cause of freedom. As such his name will be enshrined in history with the names of the GRACCIII, with the name of IliENzr, with those of BRUTUS, of EPAMI. NONDAS, Of TELL, Of HOFER, Of HAMPDEN, Of LEONIDAS, Of BONNIVARD, and of WASHINGTON. Simultaneously with the arrival of the intelligenco Till SUN, confirming the deplorable events and the dismal sus picions relating to Hungary, we have the consolation of observing, that our Hungarian Testimonial lies so far prospered in the sympathies of England as to have exceeded the sum of One Thousand Pounds. A fact so significant as sures us that the feelings with which our fellow countrymen have watched the progress of occurrences among the Magyars are those of no hollow or merely verbal friendship. The development of that germ of sympathy expressed by ourselves in a leading article, published now but a . very few weeks since, the development, we say, of that germ of sympathy so rapidly into such fruit, is an inexpressible consolation to us at a time when so many of our most golden hopes have been dissipated. We take this forcible expression of sympathy in the cause of the Magyars, on the part of the British population, as a guarantee that our dearest aspirations as to Hungary will be ultimately realised. A cause so sacred in itself, so unsullied by crime, so betrayed by treason, so en veloped with the homage of England, cannot be abandoned altogether to the cruelties of two infu riated despots by such a statesman as Lord PAL MERSTON. The ruthless character of the policy of the Imperialists was only too clearly indicated in that most hideous," perhaps, of all the hideous pro clamations that ever emanated from the lips of a parasite of tyranny —we mean the proclamation of HAYNAU to the inhabitants of Buda-Pesth. Actuated by such sentiments of fiendish im placability, it is not difficult to conjecture what will be the fate of Hungary now that it has been delivered over by GEOR• GET, unconditionally, to the mercies of _the two EMPERORS. Will the British Government continue passive while these things are progressing ? If so, we are bold to aver in the name of the hu manity of England, that that final act of pussillani mity will brim even to overflowing the cup of popular indignation . Mr. BANCROFT'S speech at the entertainment given by the MAYOR of Liverpool to the LOAD MAYOR of London, and the ofMAyosisrand h iNiia t nc e he g s u te es r t , was worthy of an American Minister of the Missroit of Liverpool. Alludingrt t ßran and the good feeling which now exists between Great America, he exclaimed, "how could it be otherwise ? Look at your exports, and look at your imports ! ' There is as much good on one side as on the other. The prosperity of both countries are identical ; and the ; voice that now weekly crosses the broad waters is a voice of friendship. The day is gone by for any but reciprocal good feeling." Yes, thanks to the system of " dependence upon foreigners," the days of anti national animosity are passing away. "Look at your exports and look at your imports ;"—what eloquent harangue could exceed the significance of that simple observation ? This is one of those stubborn facts which so triumphantly fought the battle of the Anti• Corn-law League. The Protectionist might exhaust his flowers of rhetoric and his flights of fancy, he might cite countless quo tations, and draw imaginary pictures of all imaginary evils consequent on the terrible innovation, but some such simple fact as this rendered all his eloquence powerless. "We shall be dependent on foreigners," he would exclaim at last, with confident defiance. "True," is the reply, " but look at your exports as well as your imports. There is as much good on the one side as on the other." The members of the Peace Congress may take a lesson from Mr. BANCROFT. 0 The principles exhibited fr om peace," he observed at the conclusion of his discourse, " through CANNING and PEEL, abound more and more, and will grow to cement the bonds, not only of ma terial interests' but of the finer interests of intelligence." Most assuredly they will, and already they have done so in a remarkable degree. "It is through the operation of commerce (again we quote Mr. BANCROFT) that you (the English nation) have been led to foster those great principles of Liberty which give you so high a place in the great family of man, and the proud brotherhood of nations." Some day, perhaps, we, in our turn, may address a similar compliment to Mr. BANCROFT'S fellow countrymen,-, when commerce shall have taught them no longer to disgrace her by the contamination of fettered hands—when the Republicans of America, no Ilonger " calling it freedom when themselves are free," shall have no " Slave States " to tarnish the glory by calling in question the boasted freedom of the Republic. Mr. BANCROFT is right— liberty and commerce go hand in hand. Their interests are so inseparable, that their existence apart is almost impossible. Liberty and commerce is the practical watchword of England—a watchword inferior to that of no other country ; for commerce not only combines in idea the • excellences of both equality and fraternity, but, more than that, it is the only effectual means of reducing those theories to practice. " Look at your exports and your imports ; there is as much good on one side as on the other.' This is the true practical preaching of fraternity and equality, not only between individuals but between nations. How could it be otherwise ? We are thus no longer foreigners, but fellow-citizens. In ancient days, to which political economists only look back with a shudder, when the division of labour was unknown, each individual was dependent on himself alone, and the mutual comforts of citizenship were undreamed of. Now, however, all is changed. Each man's hand is no longer raised against his neighbour, but all are directly or indirectly labouring for all and each. What civilization has done for individuals commerce is doing for communities. Civilization has converted isolated units into citizens of individual nations, commerce is converting individual and some times hostile nations into fellow-citizens—citizens of the world—a process more natural, more honourable, and more effectual than that of " disarmament." THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. !We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. They are filled with accounts of the inauguration by the PEE3IDENT of the Republic of a portion of the Strasburgh Railway at Epernay, and of the speeches on the occasion. The eastern districts of France have always been the strongholds of the Imperialists, and, as might have been expected, the reception of Louis NAPOLEON was enthusiastic, and the prevail ing shouts were "Vive NAPOLEON !" " Vive 1' Ern pereur !" The cry of the National Guard, how ever, was " Vive la Republique !" It should be remembered that the majority of those present were ignorant peasants, that the district is one of the most uneducated and unenlightened in France ; and that it is one, consequently, in which the priests have immense power, and in which fana ticism is carried tolexcess. Now, the Parti-Pretre are for the present supporters of Louis NAPOLEON, and will continue to support him so long as he re mains the obedient tool of M. DE FALLO ' • it is no wonder, therefore, that he should have been so cor dially received by the priest-ridden peasantry of the 1 eastern departments. The Constitutionnel has a long article on the neces sity of union. This article is considered as a sur render at discretion on the part of M. TIIIERS to the Parti- Pretre. The Assemblee Nationale declares that there is no truth in the statement that Lord PALMERSTON had offered his mediation between Austria and Hungary. Negotiations have been opened at Guatemala for a treaty of commerce between the French Republic and that of Central America. The Three per CentlJOlZned for cash at 56f. 10c., and, keeping an ascending movement to the end, closed at 56f. 50e. Five per Cents, opened at 901. 80c., closed at 91f. 55c.

AUSTRIA AND lIUI‘,TGA.ItY. It was reported in Vienna that BEM had been taken prisoner by the Cossqcics of Lunens, in Tran sylvania. We, however, attach no sort of credit to this rumour. The mother of KOSSUTH, and three of his children, together with Madame GUYON and her attendants, were arrested at Raab on the 27th, and conducted as prisoners to Vienna. The gallant EmrEaon, who continued tied to his mother's apron string while KOSSUTH and GUYON were in the field, now that they are fugitives, boldly ventures to make war on their women and children. Letters from Czernowitz announce the arrival of DEMBLNSKI at Widin, whare he had placed himself under the protection of the PACHA. The following letter, from KOSSUTH to Count CASsIMER ESTERHAZY, the commandant of Comorn, leaves no doubt as to the fact that the Hungarian cause has been betrayed by the foul treason of GEORGEY " Dear Count,—You will receive this letter from Colonel von Ralmany, who is charged to communicate my wishes to you verbally. The apprehensions I stated to you at Szegedin on the 23d of June have been real ised. Georgey's conquest of Ofen was the last gleam of the setting sun of the Republic, for immediately after wards Dembinski was defeated in the north and Perczel in the south ; then Georgey fell into his fatal position at Komorn, and, finally, Bem was compelled to retreat before Luders. My slender hopes of being able, by resorting to extraordinary measures, to give our cause a more favourable turn, have been wholly destroyed by the shameful ingratitude of Georgey; for the sudden revcls tion and execution of his plans, which I had long per ceived and feared, was a treason to the cause of the na tion, and inflicted on me, and through me on the Repub lic, a death blow. Our misfortune has cost us 200,000 cannon balls, and a flight already become dangerous is the grave of so many glorious victories. " Our cause is now utterly lost; the immense fatigues I have lately undergone have wearied my spirits and shattered my bodily strength; I sigh for repose. My greatest consolation in my present critical position is the knowledge that those most dear to me after my native land—my family, are in safety. " I go to-night with Csanyi and Horvath to Lugos, where I shall expect your verbal answer through Colonel von Kalmany. _ "In the Meantime accept the assurance of my profound respect. . " KOSSUTH. "Arad, Aug. 11." At Arad the Count DE LINACE and several other Magyars of distinction have been shot, in addition to AULICH and VATTER, the old companions in arms of GEORGEY, who have been judicially murdered by the Imperialists at Raab. May the guilt of the shedding of their blood weigh heavy on the soul of the traitor. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Livsereed yeseer.'.ls , eseee nFti mated at 8.000 bales, and included 6,0 1 30 Aua.re. an, We Pernam and Maranham, at sy. 0, 54-d.; 100 Egyptian, at 60. t) 811 ; 1,000 Surat, at 3.7 4 -d. to 41d., and 40 Sea Island, at lid. to 15. 211 per pond. The market was &save and closed tine, the news by the steamer having had no effect on the masllet.—The Share Market was flat, and prices had a decided decline. The reports of the growing Cotton crop in America are not altogether satisfactory, but it is too early to at , tach much importance to them. The letters by the steamer from America have been de livered this morning, and are for the most part of a favourable tenor. There is every probability cf specie having to be remitted to England as the exchange was rising. It is said, parties hying remittances to make are afraid to forward United States securities, as the last accounts from London were unfavourable for any great increase of supply upon that market. It is our impres sion that shipments of- specie, to some extent, will be made within the next sixty days. The United States revenue for the year, to June 30, was deficient 852,000 dollars, and a further loan is not improbable. Respecting commercial prospects, it is stated from New York as follows: " There are decided indications filling up, a andre revival of oafppbusi ness. Our hotels are rapidly ance of strangers in our streets, and at the various places of public amusement, gives life and activity where it has so long been dullness and depression. Our importers have laid in large lots of most seasonable goods, and our jobbers have filled up their storks; and for variety of styles, extent of supply, from which to make selections, and facilities for trade, our merchants probably hold out more inducements to traders from the interior than those of any other city in the Union. The southern, south-western, and western dealers will do much better by coming direct to New York, where he can make his purchases from first hands, than to stop at other cities, where he will have to pay two or three profits. This is the great focus of foreign importations, and those who come here to purchase have the first choice. The coun try merchant stands on the same level in making his purchases as the merchants of our neighbouring cities, and, therefore, has an advantage over those who visit those cities to trade. According to letters, d a t e d f rom t h e c i ty o f Grenada, Lake Nicaragua, on the Bth July, Somoso, at the head of four thousand men, had assaulted the city of Nicaragua, destroyed it by fire, and sacrificed the lives of its inhabitants. Somoso did not obtain much wealth by this assault; a small amount only of gold, silver, and jewelry, fell into his hands; but the total amount of pro perty destroyed exceeded two millions. It is no: pos sible that all the inhabitants of the city were sacrificed ; some must have escaped. This terrible affair had aroused Munos, who had gathered a force of seven hundred and fifty regulars, with whom he was advancing to meet Somoso, and it was expected that a battle between them would take place on that day— the 8:11 ult. The experience of Munos and the superior discipline of his troops, gives those acquainted with the country and the people, reason to believe that he will triumph over Somoso. It is stated to be the general impression is Nicaragua, that the movements of Somoso are influenced more or less by English agents. There are dates of August 11, from Aguadilla, Mayaguez, which inform us that there was not a cargo of sugar to be had on the island, the crops of the last season having been entirely disposed of. The prospect for the coming year was better than had been known for years, especially with regard to coffee, which, should it not be overtaken in its maturity by a hurricane, would be the largest crop ever known. The letters by this mail bring an account of the alleged robbery of the Halifax bank, and the supposed escape of the delinquents to Eugland. Trade in Canada was very depressed. Upon the state of the Lorelon produce markets re cently, Messrs. Wilkinson aad Jewesbury re fort as fol lows : " The foreign and colonial produce markets, during the early part of the month, were rather brisk, and a large amount of business was transacted, but this did not continue, and latterly they have been inactive, ex cept for coffee, which during the last few days has been in good demand at advanced rates. For export there has been but little doing, and prices generally are easier. Home dealers continue to operate with caution, and the public sales have gone off quietly. In the value of pro duce for this market there is but little variation; the ar rivals have been largo, but importers have supplied the markets only moderately. The deliveries for home consumption continue upon a large scale, which, as the demand has much increased in the manufacturing dis tricts are likely to be further improved. The very satis factory reports as to the condition of our harvest opera tions is also favourable for a continuation in the demand for all articles of consumption. For dye stuffs there has been a good demand, and prices generally are very firm, many articles having a decided upward tendency. Co chineal is almost the only one showing a decline, the supply being very large.' The steamer Dee, from the West Indies, brings specie, gold dust, &e., to the value of about a million of dollars. The letters are not yet delivered. Accounts from the fair of Frankfort, under date of the 31st ultimo, state that it had opened promisingly. The Funds at Amsterdam on Sunday were firm, the Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. being 54. At Berlin on the Ist inst. prices were steady, and at Frankfort they were rising. The Austrian Metalliques at Vienna on the 30th inst. were quoted 944. There is a fluctuating market again for British Securi ties, but with rather more doing. Consols have ranged from 9211 to 92i, and are now 92i le Bank Stock is worth 199 to 200, being an improvement. East India Stock has been at 250. Exchequer-bills remain at 395. to 425. premium. The elasticity of the French Bourse has no particular influence here. The Foreign Market presents a complete blank, and the quotations are nearly all merely nominal. Spanish Three per Cents. have realised 344; Peruvian Deferred, 344; and Dutch Two-and-a Half per Cents. 541. Por tuguese Four per Cents. have been about 28 to 29, and Mexican, 27- s '.. The Railway Share Market is in a most depressed condition still. Caledonian have fallen i under the lowest value of yesterday; Great Western are 31. to 41. lower; North Western, 2 to 3; Midland, 3; North Stafford, 7 to 71; and York and North Midland Ito 1. In fact, we can scarcely quote the changes with safety. Eastern Counties are steady. Northern of Frame are higher.

Prince NICHOLAS of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonder burg-Augustemburg has just died at Berlin of cholera, aged twenty. The Cologne Gazette has the following from Berlin, dated Aug. 30 : " A definitive agreement has at last been come to between Prussia and Austria on the German ques tion. There is to be a directory, consisting of seven members, for the Confederation, properly so called, proposed by the Cabinets of Vienna and Munich, which will hold its sittings at Frankfort. The directory will not be a college of deputies acting according to the instructions of their Courts, but rather a permanent executive commission for the common interest of the whole of Germany. It is not yet settled how the seven votes will be apportioned be tween the different states, but it is provisionally agreed that the states who adhered to the restricted confedera tion under the direction of Prussia will have between them three votes, and that Austria, Bavaria, Wurtem burg, and the other small states not included in that confederation, will have together four votes. Such, at least, is the proposLion of Austria. The pre sidency of the directors will be vested alter nately in Austria and Prussia. This will not alter the relatious as to the common legislation and the executive authority vested in the chief of the Empire, in the limits of the restricted confederation. This directory not having to exercise a legislative authority properly so called, no states will be joined to it. This central supe rior authority will only be installed at present provision ally. The Austrian Government engages to persuade the Archduke John to resign his dignity of Vicar of the Empire, who will announce that resolution to the Ger man people in a proclamation, as the result of a good understanding between the German Governments." POLAND. Letters from Warsaw of the 25th state that the Grand Duke MICHAEL had partially recovered from his attack of apoplexy, and that he had recovered his speech. PASKEWITCH and the traitor GEORGEY were expected there on the Ist. ITALY. The following is the proclamation issued by General ROSTOLAN,I on taking the command of the: French troops in Rome : " Inhabitants of Rome,—Two months ago your city languished under the twofold oppression of terror and anarchy. The French troops then entered Rome. They found in you friends; order and tranquillity were re stored; and the flag of the Sovereign Pontiff was speedily displayed on the walls of the capitol, saluted by your enthusiastic cries, as a pledge of a better future. From that period the army has not failed to set an example of moderation, justice, and generosity. This conduct 01 1 our soldiers is but the least expression of the sympathy and sentiments of France for the Sovereign Pontiff and the people of the Roman States. Called to-day to the command in chief of the army, I rejoice in having to continue the noble task so well commenced by it. While fulfilling my functions as Governor of Rome, I have been able to appreciate the love you bear to your Sovereign, and:the respect thatyou have for virtue. I have also learned your desires and your hopes. My efforts shall be used unceasingly to the realisation of those wishes. My chief glory will bo to have been chosen to follow out the good work the French Government has undertaken for your happiness and prosperity. " The - General-in-Chief ROSTOLAN.

TOISAC4O.—There was no alteration last month in the character of this market, and prices of all descriptions have continued firm ; the trade purchased to a very limited extent. Sales may be estimated at 1,080 hhds, the largest portion of which were taken for exportation, and consisted principally of low qualities. Latest advices from New Orleans state, that an active business was doing at firmer rates, with an upward tendency. Im ports 2,498 hhds.

Manilla Leaf sales made to a limited extent of mid quality. Yara and Cul)a in good demand, and sales effected of the latter at higher rates; the small quantity of Havannah Leaf in stock, suitable for fillers, is likely to have a beneficial effect on prospec• live prices. Brazil, Porto Rico, Havannah, Seed-leaf, and Florida in moderate demand, chiefly for exportation. Columbian Leaf, Ambulema, and Giron, of good and fine qualities, have been freely at higher rates, particularly the latter, of recent importation.

Stalks were in more demand. 1 MARLBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.) Mr. Henry Winder, a silk mercer, residing at No. 29, Oxford-street, was charged before Mr. Hardwick with having wantonly and cruelly ill-treated a dog. Mr. John Bond stated that he was a physician, and resided at No. 15, Grafton-street, Fitzroy-square. On the previous afternoon; about half-past five, he was passing by the Boar and Castle, in Oxford-street; when his attention was attracted to a crowd of persons who were witnessing some men torturing a little dog, by setting on a larger animal to worry it. He went up to them, and by persuasions succ2e,led in getting the smaller dog away. The latter rau up the street, followed by the larger dog, and when near' the defendant's shop tried to run in for protection. NA succeeding, it ran round the corner and jumped up at one of the windows, the glass of which was cracked. The defendant then came out. of his shop with a long pole in his hand, and struck the dog in a most wanton and cruel manner. Witness remonstrated with him, and begged him to desist from such cruelty. H e , however, turned a deaf ear to his remonstrance, and taking up the dog by the skin of its back, threw it with great force into the road. The dog struck a man who was passing on the chest, and having reco vere d i ts l egs , again ran to defendant's shop, who struck the dog again with the pole, broke three of its legs, end almost knocked out one of its eyes. Complainant seeing the dog in great agony, begged of defendant to hill it out right. He said in reply, " D---.-- and b— the doe., I shall do as I like." Witness then, at the earnest solicita tion of several gentlemen who had witnessed the trans action, sent for a constable, and gave him in charge. Witness added that he did not prefer the charge to gra tify any vindictive feeling, but solely on the score of common humanity. In corroboration of his evidence complainant called several witnesses, who proved that the defendant's con duct towards the dog was wanton and cruel in the extreme. The accused, in defence, said he was in his shop yes terday afternoon, when he saw the dog, which appeared to be in a rabid state, enter his shop. He immediately seized a pole, used in lighting the gas, and drove the dog out. His wife, who was in the shop at the tim e , became much alarmed, and as she had only recently re covered from a severe nervous attack, he was afraid it would cause a relapse. The dog then ran round the corner, into Perry's•place, and tried to jump th roug h the window. Not succeeding the animal, which w as foaming at the mouth, then came to the shep•door again, a=nd he being much alarmed for the safety of his household, laid hold of the clog and threw it into the street ; in doing so the dog bit him on the back of his right hand. The animal subsequently came back again, a n d, i n t h e agony o f pa i n , he certainly did stadia it with the polo in order to kill it outright. In support of this statement he called three gentlemen who bed witnessed the whole transaction, all of whom stated that the dog had been tortured into a state of madness prealous to its running into defendant's shop ; that the animal was foaming at the mouth, and betrayed every symptom of being in a rahid state ; and that defendant had only acted as he had done to secure ' his and his family's safety. Dr. Richardson, 36, Lledford-square, said, after de fendant had been to the station he came to his house in ti gate. of considyntw excitement, and, showing Jam his hand, said he had been bitten by a mad dog. On loolv IM , ."11" 11's harsd he found a punctured woun d -' 0 , 4 LL,;;;.; j i.jeauf , o.riscd b... toid, c 7, thai t o viculd not nu. Aver i or th e conscque ncc.s, neitpe' would he hare such a baud for 5001. Mr. HARDWICK said defendant was acting. the time ho struck the dog under the mot awful impres s w ° regarding the consequences arising from the bite of 6 clog, 14 hich, from its having b een p rev i ous ly crue lly o r i Lured, might have been in a rabid state. Such a state mind, no doubt, totally unnerved him, and under these circumstances he did not think defendant had wantonly and cruelly tortured or ill-treated th e d og .
