Vice-Admiral Sir George Seymour, K.C.8., Com mander-in-Chief at Portsmouth, paid a visit yesterday to the French Commodore Barbet, on board the corvette La Faune, at Spithead, where he was received with all honours, and saluted, with his flag at the fore. S:r George also visited the Austrian frigate Radetzky, where similar honours were paid him. Her Majesty's ship Melville, 72, in ordinary at Ports mouth, is ordered to be commissioned, to take the place of the Minden (hospital ship) at Hong Kong. Her Majesty's ship Royal George, Captain Robinson, landed by gun-boats and tender the 824 and other troops yesterday evening at Gosport and Portsmouth, and they proceeded to quarters. Yesterday Crimean invalids, to the number of 104 men of all ranks, belonging to various regiments, were medically inspected at Fort Pitt Hospital by Dr. J. R. Taylor, preparatory to their going before a Chelsea board of officers to receive their discharge. The finding of the court-martial which was held at Chatham barracks on Tuesday last for the trial of Pri vate William Dowell, 32d Regiment, on a charge of having wilfully blown off his right band at Chatham with the view of being discharged from the service, ha, been made known to the troops at Chatham, having re ce-ted the approval of his Royal Highness the Cow rna4der-in-Chief. The prisoner is sentenced to 163 days' imprisonment, but he is not to be discharged from the service. The Limerick papers announce the death of Staff- Surgeon Augustus Henry Cowan, who had been attached SA chief medical officer to the Depot Battalion in Lime rick since its formation. Dr. Cowan had seen much ser vice with the British army in the East Indies and in China. He was formerly attached to the 48th Regiment and a!so to the 7th Fu-ileers. He received his commis sion as surgeon of the second-class July 2, 1841. Dr. Cowan war. on Tuesday last proceeding to the military hospital in the New Barracks, the approach to which i,- at present intersected by a ditch about three feet deep, in which waterpipes with plugs are being laid for the protection of the barracks from fire.

Tbemethod invented and introduced by Mr. Waller lied, late member of the United States' Congrees, for superheating steam, having been submitted to variou processes during the last six months in the dockyard at Woolwich, has at length assumed a practical form. During the series of experiments to which the system was subjected it appears that various improvements sug gested themselves from time to time to the engineer de partment there. In this manner it was considered ad visable to prolong the trials, and thereby, if possible, render the system complete. Prior to the late voyage of the Dee to the Western coast of England the machinery was fitted up with the appurtenances necessary for the final test of the system with its stipulated improvements. The apparatus was at work the whole voyage, which was specially extended as far as Land's-end point and back to Woolwich, at the increased speed of from 7 to 9 knots an hour, the resultof which exceeded anticipation. It is understood that the average economy realised in fuel amounts to about 35 per cent. The apparatus con sists of a number of iron pipes being carried along the front of the tube plate, and extending into the chimney, into which the ordinary steam passes, and which grad u• ally becomes superheated to about 500 deg. It is then alloyed, or mixed with the ordinary steam, in about equal proportions, bringing the temperature cf the mixed steam to about 340 deg., in which state it is ap plied to the purposes of the machinery. The system of simply superheating without mixing the steam has been known for s ome t i me past in France, and has been at tempted on many occasions, but without success, which is attributed i n to great degree to the imperfection of the French machinery, which is less complete than u In the first cou rse o f experiments adifficulty or own. existed— namely, the burning and consumption of the wadding. After many fruitless attempts, this difficulty was at length got over, thus rendering the method perfect.

It stands in lat 37 deg. 35 min. 30 sec. N., long. 0 deg. 58 min. 37 sec. west of Greenwich. Every vessel entering the port of Cartagena by night, and intending to anchor on its eastern side, near the pow der magazine, or near the suburb of Santa Lucia, should always keep the light in sight slightly open of Navidad Point, taking care not to lose sight of, so as to pass clear of the shoal named the Laja, within the harbour. On the contrary, if the intention is to anchor in the part of the harbour known by the name of the Espalmador Grande, the vessel should lose sight of the light, by keep ing as close as possible to Navidad Point. Light on Cape Huertas, Alicante. Also, that on and after the 15th day of August, 1856, a fixed light, of the natural colour, will be exhibited on Cape Huartas, in the province of Alicante, in lat. 38 deg. 20 min. 30 sec.

PaNTYPRIDD, Monday.—The adjourned inquest upon the bodies of the unfortunate men killed by the late die f.,trous explosion of fire-damp at the Cymmer Colliery, situate in the Taff Vale, recommenced to-day. The Coroner stated that the inquest bad been ad journed is order to secure the attendance of some of the injured persons. He wished to know if any of them were now in attendance ? The Po:ice Inspector stated that only one was able to attend. David Thomas, a boy of about 12 years of age, was then called and examined in Welsh. He said—l live at Cymmer, and was employed at the Cymmer collieries at the time of the explosion. On the morning of the accident I was in the pit acting as door-boy to John Thomas, the haulier. I had been to Jacob's beading, and was coming out of the heading before the haulier with two trains of coals, when I met Thomas Lewis at the parting No. 2 stall, and going on found Dan, the labourer, cutting coal from beneath the door of the lower stall. The earth bad become swollen, and the door wouli not open. John Thomas, the haulier, asked Dan if he was going to clear the heading, and Dan said that he had re ceived no orders from the overman. We then proceeded along the level heading to Charles's heading, where we stopped until another tram could pass. I stopped the horse on the top of the last tip, and while waiting there I heard the report of the explosion. William Jones and Thomas Davis were also waiting close to the door of the heading, which was closed at the time. Directly I heard the explosion I ran up the level heading towards the mouth of the pit. The report of the explosion was some what similar to a loud clap of thunder, and it was imme diately followed by a rushing noise, as if caused by the wind. I was carried along by the fire to a bend in the road, where I saw a horse surrounded by a blaze of fire. I then became insensible, and remember nothing further. I believe I was carried up to the mouth of the pit. In reply to questions from the Coroner and several of the jury, the witness further stated that he was about 30 yards from the two colliers, William Jones and Thomas Davis, when he heard the explosion. Neither J ones nor Davis were smoking. He only heard one report of an explosion. John Thomas, the haulier, who was in the heading behind witness at the time of the explosion, sus tained severe injuries, but was not killed. Witness him self ran for about 30 yards before he was overtaken by the fire. He was then carried by the fire a further dis tance of 30 yards. By Mr. 0 wen—When Dan, the labourer, was asked if he inteuded to elpa.n noth:ug wo.y said of there being any fire in it. All that was necessary was to clean the dust out of the heading. Jones and Davis were seated on the top of the heading at the time of the explosion. They had some iron plates with them, but they did not say that they had been to the old workings for the purpose of procuring the plates. By the Coroner—The fire appeared to come from stalls No. 10 and 11, in Jacob's heading. Colliers were working in them at the time the explosion occurred. Thomas Davis, a boy about 16 years of age, was then examined in Welsh, his evidence being interpreted by one of the jury. He said—l am employed as a haulier at the Cymmer Colliery. On the morning of the explo• sion I was working in the furthest end of the double parting between the South Wales heading and David Arthur's dip. I had been to the Windway heading for two trains of coal, which I procured from stalls Nos. 6 and 7, in that working. There were several colliers at work in the heading, and while I was waiting at the parting for another tram to pass me I saw a cloud of dust coming alone with a great rush of wind. I heard no explosion, but as soon as I saw the dust I left my horse and ran in the direction of the mouth of the pit. William David was with me on the top of the heading at the time of the explosion. We were standing together, and both started off to the shaft of the pit in company. We both of us succeeded in effecting our escape without sustaining any injury. I saw no tire, but I became suffocated by the sulphur, and fell to the ground insensible. Ia running towards the shaft of the pit I saw Jones and Davis sitting down at the tnp of the dip hollow. By Mr. Owen—Davis and Jones were colliers, and were employed at the time in bringing plates in. I heard them say that they had procured them from the old workings, but they did not mention the precise spot. Tbey made that statement in reply to a question which I put to them as to why they had not gone into their stalls to work. Ido not know that it was considered dangerous for colliers to go into the old workings to fetch plates. By the Coroner—After the explosion I overtook a great number of colliers running to the mouth of the pit ; but I saw nothing of the firemen. By Mr. Mackworth—l observed no difference in the air of the pit that morning until after the explosion. - I had an open lamp with me, but I did not notice any dif ference in the appearance of the flame. Mr. Williams, colliery surveyor, was here recalled, and produced a plan, showing the manner in which the air passed through the mine. In answer to the Coroner, he stated that he had ascertained the extent of the air way between John Coemawr's heading and the South Wales heading. The airways were now being widened. Mr. Williams then explained at some length the manner in which the pit is ventilated, and the inquiry was then again adjourned. SLAVEHOLDING INTOLERANCE. The Hoch,wackter, a German Republican paper, pub lished zt Cincinnati, has mutate, zed it. Presidential ticket from the first to the third page. The reason for this change the editor, in a recent number, explains as follows : " We have been obliged to take the ticket of Fremont and Dayton from our first page, in consequence of the annoyance and persecutions which it brought on our subscribers in the southern states. Some of them have been threatened with mob visitation, tar and feathers, &c., unless they would discontinue taking that abolition --beet.' Such is freedom of the press, as understood by the nigger-democracy ! Such is the respect entertained by the south for the right of conscience. The inhabitant of a slave state who does not own negroes is himself tyrannised over like a slave, and dare not even read a newspaper that has not passed the censorship of his masters, the traffickers in human flesh and blood. Is this to serve as an example of what awaits us whenever ‘lavery shall be extended over the free West? Mr. Bucha nan is a worthy candidate of the party that refuses to recognise the freedom of the press. He, too, has never respected this fundamental principle of liberty. When, some years since, a motion was made in the Senate to pro hibit the mails from circulating incendiary newspapers and other publications in the South, Mr.Bucbanan's vote was recorded in favour of this attempt to muzzle the press. This was more than the great fire eater Calhoun himself 3oald swallow, and he voted in 3 this case against his confe ,ierates. But Mr. Buchanan was at all times ready to out strip southern politicians in servility and submission to 41-16 behest of the slave-drivers,. and thus voted for a mea sure from which even Calhoun recoiled. Whoever, there fore, is opposed to freedom of the press, will vote for Jas. Buchanan." LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(This Day.)

Addressing him, his Lordship said—Sir, I see you with your hat on in court. I must request you to take it off. I don't assume it to be done with any in tentional disrespect on your part, as I know that mem bers of your persuasion have an objection to take off your hats in any assembly. But wearing the hat has nothing to do with religion ; the hat is a mere covering for the head, which every one in court has taken off but your self. I don't wear my hat ; and I hope that your own good sense will point out to you the propriety of taking yout's off ; and you will oblige me by doing so. The Quaker gentleman, who had stood up on being addressed by the judge, here rubbed his hands nervously over the handle of his umbrella, and without the slightest indication of any intention to remove his bat, said to his Lordship—" I don't think good sense has anything to do with it. lam a member of a persuasion that fir 200 years has objected to remove the hat in any presence, and I object therefore to remove mine. I was very roughly handled in court this morning for refusing to take it off." _ His Lordship.—l am very sorry to hear that. I have near relatives of my own who are of your persuasion, but I never knew any one of them object to remove his hat when reasonably requested to do so. Ynur persist ing to wear your hat is a mark of disrespect, and if you choose to persist in wearing it I must request you to retire from the court. The Quaker gentleman here, amid a:somewhat general titter, turned round and walked out of the grand jury box and the court with his hat well on his head, and with the stiff-necked bolt upright gait of a man who has successfully performed a disagreeable but great moral duty. The first case calla 1 on was a charge of burglary at a grocer's shop at Manchester against two bays, and the first witness called to support the charge was a Quaker named Wright (the pros,cutor), who appeared without his hat, and affirmed, before giving his evidence, iu the ordinary way. His Lordship, in summing up, alluded briefly to what had taken place, saying he had no wish to interfere with the conscientious scruples of any person in court, con• trasting the conduct of Mr. Wright, who had appeared properly without his hat in court, and who bad business there, with that of the Quaker gentleman who had per sisted in wearing his hat, and who appeared to have no business to call for his attendance at the court, and both were of the same religious persuasion. His duty, how- ever, was to prevent an exhibition of disrespect to the Court by a person who appeared not to be compelled to be there. Mr. Wright, the witness in the case, here stood up, and protested to the jury that he had no intention to show any disrespect to the Court in what he had dune. His Lordship looked at the witness with a puzzled and surprised air, and said, " What, are you the gen tleman who just now left the court with his hat on ?" The witness admitted that he was, amid much amuse ment, and sat down with his hat off. Several charges of burglary, having in them no lea tore of interest, were disposed of in the course of the afternocn. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Aug. 11. (Beforeblr. Bliss, Q.C.) , Joseph, Oiry, a Frenchman, described as an agent, 50 years of age, was indicted for having indecently exposed himself in the Green Park. Mr. Metcalfe (with whom was Mr. Logie) was for the prosecution ; Mr. Sleigh for the prisoner. The offence set forth in the indictment was committed on the 29th of July, but according to the evidence of two little girls, the prisoner had been pursuing the same abominable course of conduct for a considerable period. The jury found him guilty, and, as he had been be fore convicted of a similar offence, Mr. Bliss sentenced him to 12 months' hard labour. (Before Mr. Creasy.) Ravin Barton was indicted for having embezzled the sums of 109., ss. Bi., and Sz., received by him ou ac count of George Ray, his master. Mr. J. P. Doyle appeared for the prosecution, Mr. Ribton for the prisoner. The prosecutor was a soda-water and gingerbeer ma nufacturer, in Artillery-row, Westminster, and the pri soner had been in his service as carman. He was charged with appropriating to himself several sums received by him in that capacity, but the case was not made out, and he was acquitted on two indictments. Cornelius Collins was indicted for assaulting Charles Marsh, and inflicting upon him grievous bodily harm. Mr. M'Enteer was counsel for the prosecution, Mr. Metcalfe for the prisoner. It appeared that the prosecutor, who is a carman, liv ing in Crown-street, Soho, was with his employer at a public house in that street on the evening of the 26th of July having some beer. The prisoner was there in liquor, quarrelling, and he challenged the prosecutor to fight him. He refused, and the prisoner struck him a blow, which he returned. The next blow given by the pri soner knocked the other down, and tie prisoner foil upon him and bit off a piece of his nose. He was taken to the hospital, where the wound was attended to, and a piece of his nose, which was hanging by a bit of skin, was sewn in its place. _ _ The jury found the prisoner guilty on the second an, third counts of the indictment. Mr. Creasy sentenced him to seven months' hard labour. Trillion Downey was indicted for having stolen six feet of lead, the property of James Thomas Ward. Mr. Metcalfe prosecuted ; Mr. Ribton defended. It appeared that the prisoner had been sent with 25 feet of pipe to do a plumbing jib, and the charge was that he had stolen six feet out of that quantity. The jury found him not enilty. Josiah Blackham, 28, John Eggelton, 23, henry Read, 25, George Hodgson, 27, and William Freeman, 32, were indicted for sleeting the sum of 191., the moneys of William Abrey, from his person. Mr. Ribton conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Metcalfe appeared for Freeman, Hodgson, and Read, Mr. Daly for Eggelton, and Mr. Reed for Blackham. This was a case of highway robbery, although in the indictment it was charged merely as larceny from the person. The prosecutor was a farmer at Pinner, and from his evidence it appeared that one day he was in the company of the prisoners at the Plough public. house, Westbourne-green, drinking, and he drove them in his cart to a place at Willesden, thence to the Orange Tree, at Stone-bridge, where they robbed him of all his money, about 191, Blaekbam holding him while Eggel ten emptied his pocket, the others aiding and assistieg The prisoners were seen in the prosecutor's company shortly before the robbery. Witnesses were called as to the good character of all the prisoners, and one of them, Blackham, it was stated, was a person of some little means. Last Tuesday week he received 5501. on the sale of a small freehold property in Harrow-road. The jury found them guilty, and recommended them -to mercy. Mr. Creasy sentenced Eggelton to six and each of the others to four mouths' bard labour. The Foreman said he was desired by his brother jurors to express to the learned judge their best thanks for his most kind and gentlemanly conduct during their attendance, and if he might go so far, he would add also for the manner in which he had disposed of the business brought before them. Mr. Creasy said be felt obliged to them. The Court then adjourned. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. -Aug. 11. MANSION-HOUSE.—Mr. Michael George Ryan, a fashionably -dressed young man of about 18 years of age, was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with hav ing threatened to stab Mr. John Mackie, proprietor of Mullins's Hotel, 11, Ironmonger-lane, Cheapside, with a dagger. Mr. Moss appeared on behalf of the defendant. The prosecutor, having been sworn, said--I! knew nothing of the defendant until he came to lodge at my hotel about a week ago. About one o'clock yesterday (Sunday) morning I met him coming out of my water closet, and told him I had found it in a state which I did not expect to find it. He made a remark to me which I did not understand, and at the same time drew from his coat the dagger produced (a most formidable weapon about a foot in length), and held it in a menac ing attitude towards me. '; Ele then went into his bed room, and I sent for a policeman. The defendant and a friend of his occupied a double-bedded room. Mr.Moss—ln what state were you when the defendant drew the dagger, were you in your sober senses ? Prosecutor —I was. Mr. Moss—Upon your oath, were you not drunk ! Prosecutor —Certainly not. I. did not refuse to allow another gentleman to leave my house till a policeman was called in. I did not demand of him 501., or 401., or 31/. before I would allow him to depart; but I did insist upon his paying me 101. before he left. Mr. Moss—Did that gentleman owe you 10/, ? Prosecutor—l don't think he did. Mr. Moss-Did you not return him the difference be tween what ha owed and the 101. yesterday ? Prosecutor—No ; Mrs. Mackie did. Mr. Moss-Will you swear that you are not known to the police as being in the habit of getting drunk and quarrelling with your customers Prosecutor—l am not so known. Mr. Moss—l will call a gentleman to prove it. The Lord Mayor—You cannot call a witness to put the complainant on his trial. Even if the complainant was drunk, it is no reason why your client should brandish a dagger over kis dead. Mr. Moss—l trust I shall be able before the case is concluded to Fatisfy your lordship that the prosecutor was not in a position to give the defendant into custody Police-constable W. Willoughby, No. 48, said—l was called by Mr. Mackie to take the defendant into c Istody. I found two persons in thAbP 1 -04 - m, one of whom was the defendant, wbo was i❑ his trousers only, and hal the dagger produced suspended from a strap round his body. He was quite soly:r. The Lord Mayor—You Hay that the defendant ti•as ; in what state was the prosecutor? Witness—A little the worse for drink. Mr. Moss, on behalf of the defendant, said that the latter had purchased the (lager for the purpose of tak ip,g it with him to Buonos Ayres, for which port he and a gentleman who had been staying with him at the hotel of the prosecutor fur a week prior to the disturb ance were about to sail. He (Ur. Moss) could not for a moment justify the conduct of the defendant in drawing the dagger, but ho was instructed by his client to state that the prosecutor at the time of the altercation was drunk, and, without the least provocation, threatened to throw the defendant down stairs. (To the prosecutor.) —Will you withdraw the charge ? Prosecutor—lf I withdraw the charge, will you with draw the insinuation as to my being drunk ? Mr. Moss—No, certainly not; because your own wit ness, the officer, has proved you were drunk, in spite of your own denial of the fact. Mr. Edward Healey, a fashionably-dressed young gen tleman, of about the same age as the defendant, and who gave his evidence in a remarkably clear manner, said— The defendant and I came from Ireland together about 10 days ago, and put up at the hotel of Mr. Mackie from the time of the arrival until the occurrence of the disturbance. A. few days ago we paid for our passage to Buenos Ayres, for which port the vessel by which we are booked sails on Wednesday next. My friend pur chased the dagger for the purpose, as he told me, of de fending himself in the event of a mutiny happening dur ing the voyage. On the night of the disturbance I ob served that Mr. Mackie, whom I did not then know to be the proprietor of the hotel, was drunk, and I had seen him drunk on two previous occasions. I went to bed, and shortly afterwards I heard some words passing be tween Mr. Mackie and my friend, and when the latter came into my bedroom I asked him what was the matter. He replied' 'A drunken man wanted to throw me down stairs." That man (dr. Mackie) came to the door and began to abuse us. I opened the door and said to a police man whom I saw on the lauding, " You must protect us from the annoyance of this man ; you see he is drunk ; he is a madman. I shall not stop here." I immediately packed up my things, and said I should leave the hotel, upon which Mr. Mackie, who was dreadfully excited, entered the room, and, holding his clinched fist in my friend's face, said, " make you pay for this." The policeman was present all this time, and both heard and saw everything that took place. The Lord Mayor (to the office►)—ls all that true ? Officer—No. Mr. Healey—l most solemnly declare every word of it to he true. I then offered to pay the bill, upon which Mr. Mackie said, " No, you shall not leave my hotel unless you give me 501." I then desired the porter to let me out, which he refused to do, saving that his mas- ter would discharge him if he acted contrary to his orders. Upon this I went to the coffee•room and called for a policeman, when constable No. 451 came up, and he saw Mr. Mackie sign a receipt for the 10/. which I paid him. The Lord Mayor—lt is quite clear that either the last witness or the policeman has not told the whole truth. What is the defendant I Mr. Healey—He has been a clerk in Ireland. Ile has friends in Buenos Ayres, and so have I. We both wish to join some friends there who have offered us employment. The Lord Mayor ordered the defendant to enter into his own recognizances to keep the peace, and said that the dagger must be impounded. The defendant entered into his own recognisances, and was discharged. The Lord Mayor requested that the pre4s would ac knowledge the receipt of IL from Mr. J. Dillon towar Is a fund for defraying the expenses of conveying home tan of the aborigines of Walpole Island, Upper Canada. MARLBOROUGH-STREE handsome, well dressed lady entered the court, and begged advice on this matter : Last week she was induced to go into a shop where an auction was being held, and, believing the sales to be lona fide, she was induced to make purchases of plated fish covers and other expensive articles to the amount of 601. She paid a deposit of 101. and left her address where the purchases were to be sent and the balance paid. The next day the articles came, with a bill'inak ing the purchases amount to 1001., and this was effected by putting down 101. where the article was knocked down to her for 71., and so on. She was satisfied of the additions that had been made to the prices because she had put down the figures at the time, and her servant was with her, who could also speak to the same fact. She remonstrated against this imposition, and she was told the matter could easily be rectified ; but, as she found the mode of proceeding was to be by taking away goods so as to reduce the amount to 601. she refused to have any further dealings with the auction people, and preferred to come to this court to know if there were any means by which she could get back her 101. deposit. Mr Bingham said he presumed the lady had not been long in Loudon, otherwise she would not have ventured into a sham auction with any hope of being honestly dealt by. The lady admitted she had only just come from Aus tralia. Mr. Bingham asked if she was a person of means ? Th• lady replied she bad 2,000 guineas a•year of her own to spend. Mr. Bingham would then advise her to take steps to punish the parties who had attempted to defraud her, and her solicitor would point out the way. MARYLEBONE.—DanieI Haley and John Gorman were brought before Mr. Broughton, on remand, charged with having been concerned with another not in custody, In feloniously assaulting, under the Infamous garotte system, and stealing from the person of Mr. James, a tobacconist in Stingo-lane, New•road, a silver watch, Value 51. The prisonera were both committed to take their trial at the Central Criminal Court. WORSHIP-STREET.—Williant Perry, a drover, was charged with the following cruelty and outrage : Sinclair, an intelligent officer of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, stated—l have for some time past had my attention directed to the wanton act of barbarity committed by drovers upon the cattle in their charge, and the more especially in consequence of repeated complaints by respectable inhabitants of New ington, Kingeland, and Hoxton, which form the chief part of the route from the railway lairs to the New Cattle-market at Islington. I have therefore kept a per severing watch upon their actions, and while in Hoxton at 7 in the evening of the 27th ult. noticed the defendant and other men driving a herd of foreign cattle in the direction of the new market. One bullock happened to he slightly in advance of the others, but was walking quietly and slowly, and doing nothing whatever to give cause for such cruelty, when the defendant went up to it nod grasping his stick, which was a very thick one, in both his hands, dealt it such. a terrible blow just above one of its hocks that the poor brute seemed perfectly paralysed and crippled, and could not move its hind legs for some time afterwards. I took the prisoner into cus tody directly, and he went with me quietly for some dis twice, but he suddenly changed his mind, refused to go any further, and told me that I was only an informer. I explained to him that I was sworn in by the Police Com inisaioners the same as a constable, but he resisted vio lently, and shouted to his companions to rescue him. the other men advanced, and one crying out "Cut him up," the others flung me to the ground, and held me white the prisoner kicked me about the body and legs and escaped, and I saw no more of him till he was taken last night by a constable who knew him, and to whom I had given a description of him. A tradesman named Spencer in Horton described the lefeedant's brutality in similar terms, characterising it as tne of the most wanton acts he ever witnessed, and that the defendant had struck several other bullocks before that both cruelly and unnecessarily. Defendant—l did not hit the animal upon the legs at All. I am a licensed drover, and my badge is with Mr. Shanks, the clerk of the m trket. Mr. D'Eyncourt —There is no doubt of the cruelty whatever,and I am very glad that the officers have got hold of you. I cannot conceive how you can be so brutal and cowardly as to wantonly injure a poor anim4l which has ioly a few hours more to live. I shall send you to the H.ouse of Correction for 21 days, without any fine, for your cruelty to the ox, and in addition to that you must oay a penalty of 20a. fot your assault upon the constable or undergo another imprisonment of 14 days. Defendant—Well, I can't pay it ; that's all. THAMES.—Joseph Dorringtom, a carman, aged 19, )f 9, Rornford-row, Rotniord, was brought before Mr. Suite, charged with furlong driving and injuring a wo man named Mary Ann Lumchley, who is in the London Hospital. It appeared that on Saturday evening the prisoner, who was in charge of a horse and cart, was having an altercation with a woman named Luoichley, who is a vendor of oysters at the Earl Grey tavern, a roadside house in the Mile-end-road. The woman demanded some money that was due to her, and the prisoner said he would not pay her then, and attempted to drive off. The woman seized the reins on one side and clialg to '.hem, and the prisoner directed her to let go, and on her refusal to do so flogged his horse, proceeded up the road, with the woman clinging partly to the shafts and partly to the reins, to the great alarm and horror of the bystanders, who expected that she would be dashed to the ground and run over. The woman oh +tinately held on to the reins while the prisoner drove as cast as he was able. The consequence was that the horse sod cart were driven on the footpath at that part of the road called Syke's-terraco, to the peril of the foot passen gers. Mr. John Taylor, a respectable tradesman, remon strated with the prisoner, and threatened to give him into custody. The prisoner swore at him and utt r d most foul anguage. Thu woman, spite of her danger, and regardless Lf remonstrance, stuck to the reins with great tenacity, Lnd at last fell, and the wheel went over her leg. The pri -'oner then turned round and drove furiously down the road to werds Essex. Mr. Taylor called out " Stop him," Lod an instant pursuit was made by Police -sergeant Smith, No. 28 K, in another vehicle, and after a long pursuit and a deal of shouting the prisoner's horse and c trt were stopped and he was secured. Sergeant Smith , aid the whole scene was a most frightful one, and that 'he people in the road were greatly terrified. The pri soner drove along the 'road at a most fearful pace, and if there had been anything in his way, or if the horse and cart had come into collision with any other animal or vehicle, the conQequences would have been serious. The rrrisoner said that all the officer said against him was right. Mi. oeire.—What do you mean by acting in this manner and endangering people's lives ? The prisoner said the woman now in the hospital, in defiance of his entreaties, would hold on to the reins, be cause he was unable to pay her a few pence—a debt in curred fqr oysters. Mr. Selfo bad no doubt the woman acted very wrongly in holding to the reins, but he was not now tryi❑g the case of assault upon her, but the case of furious driv ing, which was clearly made out, and for which he should fine the prisoner 203. The penalty was instantly paid. LAMBETH.—Mr. George Lamb, who described him self as a Methodist minister, residing at No. 14, Suther land-square, Walwortb, was charged before the Hon. G. C. Norton with obstructing the foot and carriage way in front of the Lock's-fields station-house, by sing ing and preaching during the hours of divine service on Sunday morning. Mr. John Lund, the Superintendent of the P Division of Police, deposed that at about half past 10 o'clock on the precedin:: morning he was at the Lock's•fields police station, and saw the defendant and seven or eight others place themselves at about 30 yards from his office. They commenced singing a hymn, and in a very short time a crowd collected that blocked up the carriage way and foot pavement. The single men who had been on duty on the night before, and who were asleep at the station house, complained of having been aroused from their sleep by the singing, and deprived of their proper rest, and he (slr. Lund), in consequence, sent a sergeant to the parties to inform them that they had caused the blocking up of the street, contrary to law, and must de sist. The sergeant returned with one of the party, who said his name was Lewis. He (Mr. Lund) told Mr. Lewis that he could not permit the public highway to be impeded, or his men, who had to go on duty at night, deprived of their necessary rest, and the parties must therefore desist. Mr. Lewis returned to his friends, and notwithstanding what he had told him the parties still continued upon the ground, upon which he (Mr. Lund) approached them, and addressing the defendant, who was preaching at the time, said that he could not per mit him to proceed, and unless he desisted he should feel it his duty to order him into custody. The defend ant desisted for a moment, and, removing from the car riage to the pathway, commenced a hymn, upon which he ordered him into custody, and the charge was taken in the ordinary way. The defendant was immediately bailed out by his friends, and he and his party proceeded to a piece of waste ground close by, where he recom inenCB,l preaching. Mr. Norton—How many persons were collected in ,he first instance ? Mr. Lund—l should say there were about 200, your worship. The defendant, in reply to the charge, said that he went to the place in question, in front of the station-house, from having heard that the Rev. Mr. Sherbourne, a friend of his, had preached there a few Sundays before, and had he been aware that he was disturbing any persons, and more particularly the constables who ' had been up all night, he should not have stopped there. He begged to say that no communication had been made to him by his friend Mr. Lewis from the officer who had just given his evidence, and when Mr. Lund had personally com plained to him he had merely given out the verse of a hymn preparatory to his taking the congregation who had assembled to a piece of waste ground close by, the use of which was granted to them by its owner. Mr. Norton considered Mr. Lewis very much to blame in not communicating to the defendant the message de livered to him by Mr. Lund. He (Hr. Norton) saw no harm whatever in properly appointed ministers preaching in the open air. On the contrary, he believed it to be pro ductive of good ; but they must select places where no obstruction to the public thoroughfares would be occa• sioned, and persons, and particularly policemen, who, of all others, required proper rest when off duty, would not be disturbed. If proper places were selected he did not suppose the police would interfere. Mr. Lamb, the defendant, observed that the number of persons who had congregated on the spot the day be fore proved that no place could have been better chosen than the one in question, and he should be most willing to attend there at a time mentioned by the superintendent that would be less inconvenient. He understood that the police had directions to protect them (the ministers) ; but if this was not the case, and that the law was to be car ried out to the letter, they would be liable to be taken up every moment. Mr. Norton repeated his belief that much good was done by open-air preaching, as there was a large class of persons who could not be got to church, and recom mended the defendant to put himself in communication with Sir Richard Mayne on the subject, and ask his permission to preach at the place mentioned. Mr. Lund said he should be compelled to oppose such permission, and observed that during the last week no less than six watch robberies took place at the Surrey Obe , isk during the open air preaching. The defendant having promised not to repeat his preaching and singing at the place objected to, at least for the present, was discharged, zinc' kit toe court in com pany of a large number of friends. PROCEEDINGS AGAINST A CLERGYMAN. The Rev. George Wilkins, the incumbent of Wiz, in Essex, appeared before the Biehop of Rochester, at the Castle at Colchester, on Friday, to answer a complaint of improper conduct in the church of Wix on Sunday, May 4. Archdeacon Burney and the Rev. H. R. S. Smith, rural dean, a,sisted the Bishop in conducting the inquiry. The proceedings were taken on the complaint of Mr. Thomas Morris, of \Viz-lodge, whose letter was read : " To the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Rochester. • - 6 Wixledge, by Manningtree, June 14. "My Lord,—As one of the parishioners of this parish, whose family are in the habit of attending the parish church, I beg to address you on a very painful subject, and I feel bound to do this because a full month has now elapsed since the occurrence of the circumstance I am about to detail, and I cannot ascertain that any notice has been taken or inquiry set on foot by any of the authorities who may be considered as specially charged in such cases. On a Sunday in the month of May last the Rev. Mr. Wilkins, the incumbent of the parish, was in the church for the performance of Divine service, and, after the second lesson, abruptly terminated his reading and began an address to the congregation, commenting upon what he considered had been the immoral conduct of one of his parishioners, who was present. This provoked a reply from the party (a Mr. Eagle), who rose, and in profane language accused Mr. Wilkins of falsehood ; when Mr. Wilkins rejoined in the most coarse and vehe ment manner, and an altercation ensued between them of a character which would disgrace the lowest public house. I forbear at present to enter into the particulars, further than by adding that the service was thus ended, and that the congregation left the church, one by one, offended in the highest degree. My daughters, untor tunately, sat in a pew between the litigant parties, and were compelled to witness the scene, and they retired from the church with feelings such as your Lordship can readily estimate without any further description on my part. " Neither of the churchwardens happened to be pre sent ; but this occurr once was made known to them soon after, and I have been informed (though for this I can not vouch) that th ey reported the case to the rural dean ; yet no inquiry' was made, and I therefore felt it, imperative on me to (mil your lordship's attention to the matter, and to request that your lordship will, without delay, take the necessary steps, not only to punish, but to secure the parish against the recurrence of such an ex hibition, for it is indee d hard that a congiegation, assem bled in the House of God for His worship, should have their ears assailed by s uch language as was used by both parties on the oceasior referred to, and to be sent to their homes only to coutem plate with dismay and disgust the sad want of all that they had a right to look for in him who should be their spiritual teacher. " I can, if neces:tary, readily verify the foregoing statement and the nieute details of the case by many respectable witnessei I;. and, are, my lord, &c., _ _ " THOMAS MORRIS." The Bishop then inquired of Mr. Wilkins what be had to say in answer to the complaint. Mr. Wilkins--. 1 throw myself entirely on your lord ship's indulgent f. I admit—it is not my intention to ma t te any reply to what is there said. The Bishop s. Lid it fell to his lot, and he was extremely sorry for it, to be obliged to reprimand Mr. Wilkins very severely f :a- the extremely improper conduct of which he was g uilty on that occasion. He need hardly repeat what w: 13 stated in that paper, which, in fact, Mr. Wilkins di. I not contradict. In passing sentence of reprimand ai ad admonition, he could not forget that he was address ling a venerable brother of the Church, ;16, ,a;ir-t whom In no former occasion bad he heard any charge, who . had hitherto conducted himself with great propriety, and for whom he always entertained a high respect. It was with great pain that he repri manded him on this occasion, and Mr. Wilkins was re primanded a,ccordirgly. His Lordship hoped that he would return to his parishioners and enjoy once again that re spect and a . ;tention which they bad hitherto shown him, and he (the Bishop) believed justly so. He was aware that in his immediate neighbourhood there were persons who entertained malicious feelings towards him, very un justly, as he had reason to believe, but he hoped the generality of the parishioners had a very different feel ing ; from tl le zeal he had shown for their spiritual wel fare, and fro sa his general propriety of condu^t until this occasion., when he unfortunately forgot himself is a manner whioh he could not but feel afforded a just ground of coo 'plaint. The churchwardens were not pre sent, other wiFie it would have been their duty to report the matter t him. He might add that, generally speaking, it ai 'as not for the Bishop to take proceedings, but for the pa rty complaining, as the Bi s hop was j u d ge , and ought not to be judge and prosecutor at the same time ; but he felt it to b e, hi s d uty to repr i man d a clergyman f conducting himself so improperly as Mr. Wilkins mat , ortunately did on this occasion. He would not refer to the conduct of Mr. Eagle, as his case was not before hi in, but it seemed to have been very im proper. Th. ire was some excuse for Mr. Wilkins, though nothing could really excuse him, because he ought to have• had his temper more under his commard. One of the churchwardens inquired if his Lordship would advise them to take proceedings against Mr. Eagle ? His Lordship said they were at liberty to do so if they liked, ao d there was no doubt he behaved exceed ingly ill upon the occasion, but he did not feel it to be his place to e nter into a matter which was not before him. It is utu lei 'stood that proceedings are intended to be taken agaii Ist Tifr. Eagle.
