SDI of the Public Journals. (From. the Times of this day.) Though we have read a few essays on human knowledge_ and popular ignorance, on the powers of the understanding, the unfits of though,;, and other views of man, representing him alternately as an eagle and a mole, a giant and a worm, we do not remember to have se ea so interesting a chapter on these subjects as the examination of Sir Ethuutid Lyons before the Chelsea Board on Monday. To the gallant Admiral's naval prowess and skill— which, however, we should have liked to see rise with command—we must now add a most remark able, power of seeing, observing, remembering, and knerwing what he likes, as much as he likes, and in wltiat shapes he likes. He can open his eyes, thaw a film over them, or close them altogether ; he can Isnow actually, officially, professionally, conjectu rally, or not at all, as he pleases ; and play these various- descriptions of knowledge with as much faeility as a chessplayer will at one time play a queen or a pawn. At first sight one is led to imagine that the vulgar myth which divides human beings into landsmen and sailors, and supposes them • utterly ignorant of one another, had some founda tion in fact, and that there really were people on the one element who imagined that cavalry could operate with advantage in the mid ocean, and, on • the other hand, who believed horses to be only a light description of craft, rather crank, and liable to go before the wind. But Sir Edmund has evi dently been upon land, and has aided his powers of observation by consulting other people more fami liar with that treacherous element. That he has been perfectly successful in his choice of authorities we do not venture to say, for we should have thought that in the length of Piccadilly he might easily have met a few landlubbers more knowing in the ways of man and horse. But he has taken some pains to assist his inexperience, and the efforts he has made add somewhat to the different phases of knowledge we have mentioned above. Assisted, then, by a friendly landsman, who may or may not be given to practical joking, Sir E. Lyons has a decided opinion against the use of sailcloth to protect horses from the weather. He never heard of the idea till be found himself in Chelsea Hospital the other day, it being the uni versal opinion in Greenwich Hospital that in foul weather a horse, like a man, bad best go below It would appear that the admiral had never heard of a tent, or at least, that there were certain phy sical affinities between a horse and a man. We are driven, however, from this last alternative, because Sir Edmund had never heard a syllable about sail cloth being applied to the shelter of troops. As a sailor, of course, he need not even have heard of a tent, much less is be obliged to have seen one, or to know what it is made of. By the aid of the friendly landsman, however, he has acquired some exact information. "To have put up canvass on the plateau would have been totally useless, even if we had the means, which we had not; it was consequently never thought of." Sir Edmund got s further. He cannot possibly admit that Lord Raglan, who attached so much importance to the efficiency of the fleet, would have made such appli cation. He also answers categorically that be could never have furnished any such quantity of canvass as would be necessary to provi 'e shelter for 2,000 cavalry horses. Under the circumstances Lord Raglan was not the man to make such a re quest. Considering, therefore, that Sir Edmund never heard the idea suggested till he walked the other daylo Chelsea Hospital, and is able to state positively that it never occurred to anybody in the Crimea, landsman or sailor, it is rather remarkable that he should ales be able to state with equal cer tainty that he sails would have been utterly useless —that L6riot Iteglan would never have asked for them—that Ire could never have given them, and that even had the idea occurred to anybody, and had the sailcloth been asked and given, there were no means of constructing shelter out of it. That Sir Edmund should be so absolutely certain that he had no sailcloth to spare is all the more remark able when it is considered that, on being asked the question, he did not know how much he had—a most singular instance of a definite conclusion on indefinite premises. Sir Edmund is positive the whole fleet could not have supplied sailcloth to keep the wind off 2,000 cavalry horses ; but it ap pears—for Sir Edmund says he has no reason to doubt it—that one 80-gun ship carries 7,844 yards of canvass in the spare sails, and a quantity of old canvass besi les. This latter, however, Sir Ed mund can state positively had all been sent on shore for the use of the Naval Brigade, though he had previously stated that he had never heard of the application of sailcloth for the shelter of troops —a nondescript animal, not to be confounded with that very orthodox creation, a Naval Brigade. Sir Edmund appears to think that he can never get too many batteries to bear on one point ; and, oven if an objection is logically sufficient, he heaps twenty others on it. For three months the poor helpless soldiers and the officers charged with their discipline and care were grumbling away in the most pitiable manner for want of some body just to tell them how to put things together, and make the best of their situation. Ni'w, sailors are proverbially handy. Indeed a sailor is a very stupid fellow if he is not a carpenter, a tailor, and a good deal besides. On board every ship there is a staff of carpenters sufficient to set the rest to work. Sir E lmund Lyons then is asked two questions,—the first, whether he could have supplied the army with carpenters to guide them in their wretched attempts at hutting. To this he answers, with his usual superabundance o' positive knowledge, that the ships had not half their complement of carpenters, that they ha I sent half ashore to help at Balaklava, that there were none to be got from the Admiralty, none from Malta, none anywhere ; that all they had were wanted, and more ; that all the carpenters in the fleet were employed far a Diorite in mending the rudder of the Royal Alt ert, almost under the ene my's guns ; and that—for it comes to this—had half-a-dozen more carpenters been sent ashore, the fleet would probable have drifted under the Rus sian batteries. But really this proves too much— that is, too much on the supposition of a crew being divided into sailors and carpenters, the fe it being that probably a quarter of the sailors would be bet ter carpenters than the poor overworked, underfed soldier; better carpenters, more handy, with tools or without tools ; more eonversant with boards, spars, spikes, cloth, rope, and tar, than the sol diers. Why, everybody knows that a discharged soldier is nothing but a spoilt labourer, while a dis ciharged sailo r , or even mar i ne, is a Jack of all Trads, able to make anything out of nothing. So, how does the Admiral's answer meet the questi even if it was of no possible use to send ashore a party of professional carpenters, with planes, adzes, augurs, squares, centrebits, and lathes ? Such, however, is the redundancy of certain definite and insuperable obstacles that Sir Edmund has ready for this question ; though he is not so certain—it does not come within his province —that the car penters on board the transports and merchant ships might not have been hired. But he is asked the fur ther: question, whether carpenters might not have been procured from Constantinople ? Here know ledge failsand opinion comes in. It is Sir Edmund's opinion that no carpenters could have been pro cured from Constantinople ; indeed he tried and got none ; there were none, and those whO were there were wanted. No doubt, there are not many carpenters at Constantinople who could fix the rud der of a 120-gun ship in a gale of wind, particularly if they had pleasanter work offered them at better wages ; but, to think of saying there are no car penters at Constantinople I Why, it is a city of carpenters. Cobden describes it as a city of boxes, open by day and shut by night. There are 80J,000 people living entirely in wooden huts, of which a quarter, or thereabouts, are burnt down once in five years, and built up again in two or three months. Here are the very huts, the very artisans, in d city described as having no carpenters ! The thing is so obvious that, on the question being put, Sir Edmund at once assumes the stiffest professional attitude, and knows nothing about it. "Do you not think," asks Col. Tullo c h, " as Cons tantinople is built of wood, that carpenters capable of putting up framework must be numerous there, and might have been procured in order to put up temporary shelte r ? ' T o w hi c h Si r Edmund answers that h e does not know how an admiral on board a fleet was to know this. He was only certain everything was done that could be done. Sir Edmund would hardly escape the credit of being at the same time the blindest and the most positive man in this country, but for what we must call certain happy in consistencies, to be explained by the various applications of his professional or official knowledge, information, opinion, or what ever mode of intelligence he bring s to bear on the question. He has the strongest opinion that all the Rails in. the world would have been blown away from the plateau before Sebastopol, bra when he is asked whether sailcloth could not have been employed in the Valley of Kadikoi, he takes in sail at once, and answers, "It is a military question,": and he does not like to enter upon it. When , he is asked whether lie noticed any want of promptitude or ingenuity in devising shelter for the cavalry horses, his answer is that he did not, because he noticed- particularly that Sir George Brown, Colonel Wood, and a great many other officers showed remarkable skill and industry in sheltering their horses, by excavation or otherwise, i nsomuch that they saved their horses thereby. Sir Edmund does not explain how it was that if A, B, C saved their horses by merely digging holes for them the rest of the alphabet lost all their horses miserably, without, however, exhibiting any want of promptitude or ingenuity. On being pressed, however, with the fact that some saved their horses, and some did not, he answers, " My opinion as far it goes, that there was no want of promp titude or ingenuity. On being pressed,lowever, with the fact that some saved their horses, and some did not, he answers, "My opinion is, as far it g ies, that there was no want of prompitude, but I cannot constitute myself a judge in military affairs." This means, of course, that he knows what answers the purpose, and ignores the rest. That is all his closing address comes to. In order to prove the thorough, ready, and effectual co operation of the services, the prompt applications of the army and assistance of the fleet, he relates the invaluable services of Lieutenant Goss, and the invaluable assistance rendered by Lieutenant Hawkins at a critical juncture ; and how that on one occasion the ships of the fleet did actually make 742 cots and frames in three days, and how that Captain Heath, of the Sanspareil, under took and accomplished the roasting of the coffee for the army, to Lord Raglan's great surprise and admiration ; also how the same Captain Heath, happening to observe that the animals died for want of shelter, and hearing that 300 fine mules were expected from Spain, offered from the re sources of the fleet to build stabling for those animals; and Sir Edmund reads a letter, in which Captain death says:—"As all our skilled carpenters were already employed for the army, I did not like to withdraw one of them, but I placed 30 or 40 seamen under the direction of a boatswain, and they erected these stables." Sir Edmund adds, simply enough, "I believe th it a great many of the mules there sheltered are alive now." Then, what becomes of the alleged impossibility of assist ing the army to make tents or huts for man or horse ? It appears thus, on Sir Edmund's own admission, that the officers could shelter their horses, and the navy could help in the - same work. Then, why was not this the rule, instead of the very rare exception? Why were only' eight per cent. of the horses saved and ninety-two per cent. lost ? (Prom th,e Times of this clay.) The rejection of the Church Discipline Bill in the House of Lords on Monday night was the re sult partly of what the bill superseded and partly of what it substituted in its place. The 15th clause was condemned by the whole body of English bishops (though the Irish appear to have swallowed it), on the ground that it superseded the authority of the bishop in his diecee, and consequently the episcopal constitution of the Church. "The 15th clause," said the Bishop of Exeter— " Distinctly withdrew authority from the diocesan bishops, and vested it in the archbishop, at the pleasure of the archbishop. It provided that any clerk against whom a complaint was made might petition the arch bishop to bear and determine his cause, and that the archbishop might, if he thought fit, hear and determine it accordingly. Ht , appealed to the house to say whether this clause did not remove the authority of the bishop over the clerks in his diocese and vest it in the arch bishop." This interpretation of the clause was disputed by Lord Harrowby, " who took the liberty of pointing out that under it the Archbishop was to exercise only such authority 'as he might have done by any statute or law before the passing of this act ;'" but the Bishop of Oxford asked with some force, "If it was intended to give to the Archbishop no more power than he at present possessed, what was the use of introducing the clause I" and, lastly, the Lord Chancellor himself appeared to allow the operation of the clause in his appeal to a provision of the existing Church Discipline Act as a prece dent for it. The existing act introduces the juris diction of the Archbishop into the bishop's diocese, in the special and particular case of the bishop being the patron of the offending clergyman's liv ing. The proposed bill, then, would appear, by the mover's own admission, to take up a particular and exceptional ease of superseding a bishop in his own diocese which the existing act supplies, and to use it as a precedent for a regular and systematic policy in the same direction. We will not, however, undertake to grapple with the wording of a bill which does riot appear to escape the general fault of bills—that of being ill and carelessly worded ; and therefore we will on ly remark that if thi s i s ie operation of the bill it ap pearsito us to be an objectionable one. Diocesan episcopacy is not only the Constitution of the Eng lish Church, but has become by this time one of the institutions of the country, like Queen, Lords, and Commons, the twelve Judges, or trial by jury. It is, moreover, as contrasted with a more centra lised church government, in harmony with our na tional bias for local administration and self-govern ment. The Lord Chancellor's bill, then, by its in terference,' or appearance of interference, with the diocesan principle, very naturally and justly ex cited a good deal of Ecclesiastical eloquence ; and the Bishop of Exeter, not slow to take advantage of such an occasion, scolded his Lordship with that polite severity which is so familiar to him, and almost excommunicated the Irish bishops, declar ing " that if the Church of Ireland looked upon the principle of this bill as tolerable in a Christian church, he could not hold himself in communion with the Church of Ireland." As the Irish bishops appear not only to have considered the principle of this bill tolerable, but to have formally accepted it, it might appear that this was a cam belli, and that we might expect to hear of further proceeo ings from the bishop. But a rejection of the bill will probably satisfy his lordship, and the Irish Church will not have to contend at once with a spiritual interdict from Exeter and an assault ori her temporalities from Limerick. The hill, however, was as much objected to on account of the machinery which it created in the place of the existing system as on account of wlia it superseded. There were to be four Chancellors appointed, with salaries of 3,0001. a-year each, be sides Secretaryships of 6001., to which the Chan cellors were to nominate. These officials were to go about, like Judges of Assize, trying clerical del in quents. Now, will anybody give himself the trouble to calculate for one moment the real ex tent of ground over which the jurisdiction of these officials will extend, and the amount of business which it will supply ? There are, we Cupp about 20,000 .clergy in England and Leland. Tills body s c unposed of gentlemen, men of edu cation, aid men who by their profession are bound to set the rest of the world a good ex ample. These 20,000 educated and respectable gentlemen, then, are expected to employ the whole time of four largely-salari e d j u d ges i n the amount of crime which they will supply, and the four Chancellors are to sit eternallyjudging delinquents from the orders of priests and deacons. Now, cer tainly, if they really had all this work to do, these gentlemen would deserve their salaries ; not to say, perhaps, that the extreme arid trying solem nity of their functions would of itself deserve some compensation, on the principle that the chaplains of burial-grounds are paid extra for the mournful and grave tenure of their employment and the as sociations connected with it. These punishers of clerical crime would stand in somewhat the same relation to our common law judges that the chap lains of cemeteries do to the parochial clergy. But by what stretch of imagination can any one suppose that a body of 20,000 educated and respectable gentlemen will_ furnish this• amount of cri ne ? Take a town of 60,400 or 70,000 inhabitants; is be one of our manufacturing towns, and let i exhibit all the degradation, ignorance, and vice which a promiscuous: population of this number and class exhibits. Would not any one be sur prised at such a population as this being considered to require the constant employnaent of four judges, receiving 3,000/. a year each, to sit on the criminals which itavould supply? What town in the coun try has - such a judicial staff assigned to it ? Then, what but the blackest imagination could conjure up an endless string of criminals out of a body of 20,000 picked men, ministers, spiritual pastors and teachers, and lights in their generation ? " The fact is said th e Bi s h op o f Exeter, "die bill is an undeniable job. The Chancellors are to re ceive 3,000/. a year, but what is the number of causes they are likely to have ? The average num ber of causes in England and Ireland does net exceed six, so that there will be a trial and a half per annum for each of the four Chancellors." To supply, how ever, some show of employment to these officials central registries are to be erected in London and Dublin, at a cost of 120,0001., and an annual ex eenditure of 48,9001., while the total amount of fees upon marriage licences and from other sources which are at hand to meet this expenditure is only 35,000/. The administration of stamps is another make-up employment assigned to these officials. No bishop is to do a single episcopal act without stamps and-the signature of one of the four Chan cellors. He is not to give letters of Orders. He is not to give Institution without the stamp or sig nature of a Chancellor. It is pretty plain what sort of berths these Chancellorships would be; and also, as the Bishop of E xe t er seys " it is n o t diffi cult to foretell what would be _the fate. of such a bill in the House of Commons," But the upp er Rouse has saved the Lower one the trouble and anticipated its decision.

THE SUE, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENINn, APRIL 23. 1856 SURREY 'April 22 was at the Surrey Canal Tavern in plain clothes, and sa w the prisoner there in company with several other thieves. Having no,dogkt that he was dressed for the Purp , se of cominittingraberies, he watchel hitir nar rowly. He saw him put his hand into the pockets of two ladies, but finding from inquiries that they had no thing in their pockets to be robbed of, he did not then take him, but Paw him follow the prosecutor into the tav , rn. Immediately after wanes:, saw him put his arms round Mr. Hunt, and then endeavour to make his way from him. He was followed by the prosecutor, who „laid hold of him, and gave him over to his (witness's custody. Witness did not find the watch on him. Pri soner had an opportunity of getting rid of it before lie was taken, for he passed by several of his companions. The prisoner denied the charge, and was fully corn mitted fur trial. . IITAVV *COUR (48ekre J, E. Johnson, ERq., and a Bench of Magistrates.) ROBBERY BY A HOUSEKEEPER. Mary Howard, 30, was indicted for stealing the sum of 3151. in gold, the money of Anthony Malony, her master. Mr. Robinson prosecuted, and Mr. Thompson defended the prisoner. Tue prosecutor stated that he resided at 8, Nelson square, Bermondsey, and on the death of his wife, about six months ago, be engaged the prisoner as his servant to lu k alter the house and attend upon himself and chil dren. Witness bad fur many years saved money from , the heard earnings of him-elf and late wife, which he deposited in a box in his bed-room. On the night of Tuesday, the 25th ult., he hart in the box 3151. in sove reigns and half-sovereigns, and on the following night, when he went to bed, he saw it all apparently sate. He then went out to his business, and ou his return home, about ten o'clock, he was surprised at finding that the prisoner had suddenly left the house with her cloth in_'. He immediately went to his bed-room and perceived that his box had been broken open and robbed of all the contents. Re directly went and informed the police, and on Thursday morning he sent his children to diffe rent railway,, while he proceeded to others. Fortunately the pHs ner was captured in a railway carriage at Bus tou,qua, -, just as the train was about to start for Birmingham. Police-constable 376 $ said he apprehended the pri• sorer, an i took her to -the Bermondsey station, when hhe admitted taking the money. He handed her over to I e female srareher. Etiztt Dover, -earcher at the Bermondsey station, said she found on the prisoner 12 sovereigns, five hall-sove reigns, and 1/. 154. 9d. in silver and copper money. She had a great quantity of gold coin also in her posses ion, which ,be handed over to Serjeant Reid, the acting in spector on duty. The latter officer said he counted the gold, and found 179 ~ , v ei wpm and 162 half sovereigns, wa , ing altogether 2761. 5 - . 9d. found in the prisoner's pusses-don. .14110 Maloney, daughter of the prosecutor, said she went to the North-Western railway station, Easton square, on Thursday morning, and saw the prisoner sittin g in one of the carriag es a b ou t t o start f or Birming ham. She had her luggage with her, and bad purchased her ticket. Witness went and called the constal,le, and gave her into custody for robbing her father of about 3001. Mr. Thempon, after hearing all the evidence, said it would be useless to struggle against it, therefore he should advise the prisoner to withdraw her plea of not guilty, and plead guilty. The prisoner accordingly pleaded guilty, and it being her first offence, the chairman sentenced ber to three months' hard labour in the Wandsworth House of Cor rection.

Lord Pininure has this tt,ty received two despatches and their enclosures, of which the following are copies, ad dressed to his lordship by General Sir William Cudiington, Sebastopol, April 7, My Lord,—The Stromboli returned this morning with Dr Mcll lree from Redout Kale. The letter from Prince Beboutoff, at Tiflis, of which a copy is herewith transmitted, shows that General Williams had recovered his health, and had been forwarded to Ria zan, near Moscow; and that, consequently, it was not ne cessary for Dr. Mclllree to go to Tiflis, nor do the Russians seem to have wished that he should pass their lines. Tour Lordship will see that the armistice had been established in Asia. Dr. Mclllree accordingly returned, bringing me letters from A bdil Pasha, who was in temporary command of the Turkish troops during the absence of Omar Pasha. The service for which Dr. .dclllree was selected would probably have exposed him to a difficult if not a danger ous journey at this time of year, across mountain passes, and amongst such a population; his mission would have required circumspection and activity, and I beg to bring his name to your lordship's notice from his service at Scutari, and his selection by Sir J.

LADvEsTisEmaYr.l—Whilst millions of our fellow-beings groan iu absolute despair under the various and contradic tory treatments" of which nauseous drugs, and every de scription of harassing and torturing appliances form the prin cipal ingredients, it is delightful to have to record the con tinuous progress, in general confidence, of a preparation which, we aro justified in saying, has done more to, prevent human misery and untimely death than any or all the agencies which science had previously brought to light. We here allude to Messrs. Du Barry's celebrated Revalcnta Arabica Food, which, besides being a delicious article of general diet, effects speedy and perfect restoration to health in ca ,es where long and expensive courses of medicine have previously been tried in vain. Amongst Vre maladies in which it effects a complete and speedy cure, are dyspepsia (in digestion), constipation, functional irregularity, obstruc tions, acidity, cramps, fits, heartburn, diarrhoea, nervous ness, biliousness, affections of the liver and kidneys, fla tulency, distension, palpitation of the heart, nervous headache, deafness, noises in the head and ears, giddiness, pains be tween the shoulders, and in almost every part of the body, chronic inflammation and ulceration of the sto each, erup tions on the skin, scurvy, fever, scrofula, impurities, poverty of blood, consumption (if not beyond human aid), dropsy, rheumatism, gout, influenza, grippe, nausea, and vomiting during pregnancy, after eating, or at sea, low spirits, spleen, general debility, paralysis, cough, asthma, tightness across the chest, phlegm, inquietude, sleeplessness, involuntary blush ing, tremours, dislike to society, unfitness for study, delu sions, loss of memory, vertigo, blood to the head, exhaus tion, melancholy, groundless fear, indecision, wretchedness, thoughts of se l f-destruction, &c. When upwards of fifty thousand respectable, individuals, any one of whom can be p'-rsonally referred to, have come forward to express their gratitude to Messrs. Dnßarry, it would be fruitless to attempt to give an idea of the variety of the symptoms and circumstances in which relief has been afforded. But we shall take an instance or two at random. Mrs. Maria Jolly, of Worthain Ling, Nor folk, writes : " For 50 years I had suffered indescribable agony from dyspepsia, nervousness, asthma, cough, flatulency, spasms, sickness at the stomach, and copious vomiVngs." She was cripp'ed through weakness and infirmity, and she adds, " My sufferings were so awful (from flatulency, sic .), that I have many a time prayed for death as a happy deliverance." This sufferer, "to the astonishment of all her friends " was restored to health and sound sleep by the use of the food ; and she states that since her recovery she had tried it with similar happy effects upon "a little grl of seven years of age, who had been suffering fearfully from an eruption of the skin, large white lumps, itching dreadfully, an 4 making her cry from pain." Miss Elizabeth Yeoman, of G iteacre, near Liverpool, testifies to a similar cure of " ten years' dyspepsia and neryousirritability, which had rendered life a perfect bur den to her," and f which she had vainly tried " the best me dical advice, bleeding and blistering, and an astonishing amount of drugs " In infancy, as in maturity and old age, the same [unvarying and unfdling effect is produced, and it is but fair to acknowledge that, bythe introduetion of this food, kT essrs.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-April 22. BOW-STREET.— A sorter in the Post-office, named Peter Francis Morgan, was brought up for final exami nation on two charges of stealing money letters, which had pas,ed into his hands in the curse of duty. Tee case was conducted by the Post-office solicitor, Mr. Peacock, and Mr. Hobler appeared for the defence. The prisoner, who has been for 20 years in the service of the Post-office, had for some time been under clop, in consequence of which a watch was set upon hie,. .On Monday week fragments of no less than eight letters were found under circumstances tending to increase this suspicion, but affording no distinct proof again..t him. On Tuesday precautions were taken, and a stricter watch kept, aryl he was seen to tear up a letter and throw away the pieces, which were afterwards collected and put together. It was found to be a letter from a lady at Brockworth, in Gloucestershire, to her father at Hack ney, enclosing a sovereign for the relief of the old gen tleman, who was bedridden and in great distress. The prisoner was at once apprehended and searched by the Post-office constables, Peake and Smee, who found on him a sovereign and some other moneys, and two visit ing cards. It was a "George and Dragon " sovereign. The lady who forwarded the money proved that the So vereign she had enclosed was of the same description, and that she had fastened it between two visiting cards, bearing the same names as the two produced, which were, in fact, to the best of her belief, the same cards. At the prisoner's house the officers found a considerable quantity of watch guards, pins, rings, and other jewel lery, and the remains of another letter, which on being put together turned out to be a note frym the Rev. Mr. Barr, of Wendon rectory, near Saffron Waldon, enclos ing half a sovereign to his nephew, at school at Maida hill. On these two charges the prisoner was folly 1:13M milted. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. Lord Ward was summoned before Mr. Bingham for refusing to pay Ed ward Philpot his fare. The cabman said one of his lordship's servants hired him to go from Dudley-house to Kensington. The dis tooce was over three miles, and when he applied for 2s. he was refused payment. His lordship had no knowledge of the circumstances under which he had been summoned. Be presumed the question was as to distance, whether under three or over three miles, and as that was a matter upon which he had nothing to say, be should pay the demand at once. His lordship then handed Mr. Leadley, the chief clerk, half a sovereign to pay fare and expenses, together six His lordship had left but a very short time when one of his domestics entered the court to state that the cab man bad been previously paid, and he wanted to know what he was to do under such circumstances ? Mr. Leadley asked him if this was the ocly cab en gaged to take up at Dudley-house on that day ? The servant said there were a great many other cabs engaged that day, and he did not think he should be able to swear to this particular cab. Mr. Bingham could not assist the applicant, who then left the court. WESTMINSTER.—A few days ago Eliza Perk,ns. a plain, matronly-looking woman, b etween 80 and 40 years f age, preferred a complaint against a policeman for assaulting her. In the course of the inquiry it trau• s7ired that she had gone to the house of Mr. Protheroe, formerly M.P. for Bristol, No. 8, Eccleston-fiquare, Pim lico, and having refused t o l eave t h e premises, the police man was called in to remove her. Owing t ) her resist ance he was compelled to use some force, and the com plaint against him was consequentiy dismissed. On Mon day the woman Eliza Perkins was charged by Mr. Pro theroe with creating a great disturbance at his house by knocking and ringing the bell. She alleged as her - xcuse that she had formerly lived with Mr. Protheroe, that her husband had lately left her in consequence of sus pecting that the c innection between them still existed, and that she Has left destitute with three young children, the. pati•reity of whom aas questionable. Mr. Protheroe, who is apparent y above 80 years of age, said that the woman had no claim upon him, and she was discharged by Mr. Arnold upon entering into her own recognisance s to keep the peace, and promising to prosecute any claim, real or imaginary, she might have against the gentleman in a legal way. In the course of the same afternoon, however, she and her friends got up a scene in Eccleston-square, to the great annoyance of the residents there, which resu!te I in Eliza Perkins, Mary Thompson, Jane Preston, and Ann Malcolm being yesterday charged at. th s court. It %vas proved that, between 4 and 5 o'clock, Perkins and her companions, Preston and rhompson, walked up and down Eccleston-square, accompanied by the former's three children, apparently aged ab nit 2,4, and 6 years. A. large crowd of persons a-seurbled, whose sympathy was excited by their account respecting the children, and the la - ter were pleat lcusly imploded with bread and butter and halfpence by the tnuititude, who were told that they were suffering all manner of privation through the neglect of some person who had a right to maintain them. Per kins called upon Mr. Protheroe by name, applied dis graceful epithets to him, and declared her intention to annoy him. The police were striving to remove the de fendants and disperse the crowd, when Malcolni told the former to move at their peril, reminded them that they had had their instructions, took out a daguerreotype portrait of Mr. Protheroe, and exhibiting it said that that was the father of the children. Mr. Austin, jun., solicitor, urged on behalf of his client, Mrs. Malcolm, a very respectable-looking woman, that the crowd was there before she came up. She had advised Mrs. Perkins to go away, and if the had been betrayed into the utterance of any improper expression with r. specs to Thompson and Preston remaining, it had been caused by her sympathy for the poor children. A witness having been called on behalf of Malcolm, who denied the statements wade on the other side, the defendants Preston and Thompson declared that Mal colm had given them no instructions to take the children to Eccleston-square bet that th e y L a i gone to Mr. Protheroe's with them by direction of Perkins, _who thought that if he would not do anything for her, he would be moved to compassionate the children. Mrs. Perkins denied that she was in the square at all. Mr. Arnold observed that it was clear to him that Mrs. Malcolm had given the woman Preston and Phoinpson instructions in this matter, and that she was exhibiting the portrait ; and her conduct was the less excusable because she had applied to him on the previous day respecting Mrs. Perkins and t h e children, and he had told h er - he could not pei mit a disturbance to be made at Mr. Protheroe's house. It was altogether an extremely disgraceful affair, and he should call upon Perkins t► find two sureties in 201. for the next six months, Mrs. Malcolm to find one surety iu .20/., Thompson one surety in 101., and Preston (a-widow ith a large family) to enter into her own recognisances to keep the peace. Bail was put in for Mrs. Malcolm, Perkins's landlady. LAMBETH. —Frederick float e, a young man dressed in a cloak or cape which well y.uited his calling, that “f an expert thief; was charged with stealing from the per son of Mr Jaynes Hunt, a butcher, in the New-cut, Lambeth, a silver watch. It red that o n th e prece di ng a ft ernoon prosecu tor, wilseveral thousand others, had been attracted to the Canal House Tavern, Peckham, to witness several feats, such as climbing a greasy pole for a leg of mut ton, and the sailines of a brace of clowns 500 yards along the Surrey Canal in washing tubs, drawn by four geese each. On entering the tavern in the midst of a considerable crowd he discovered that his coat had been unbuttoned, and his watch, which was in his waistcoat pocket, wrenched from his guard chain. He saw the prisoner, who but a momen t b e f ore h a d b een at his side, pushing his way through the crowd, and having no doubt he was the person who had taken his watch, he laid hold of him.

Lord,—l have the honour to transmit the weekly report from Sir John Hall, Inspector-General of Hospitals, by which your lordship will perceive that the general health of this army continues good. With reference to the latter part of my despatch of yes terday's date, I beg lave also to enclose a letter from Sir John Hall, i❑ which he makes favourable mention of Dr. Mclllree's services. —I have, Ic., W. J. CODRINGTON, General Commanding. The Lord Panwure, &c. Enclosure I. Head quarters, Camp, Crimea, April 7, 1-356. Sir,—The sanitary condition of the army in the Crimea, as exhibited by the accompanying weekly state, is very satisfactory, and no disease of at,y marked or peculiar character exi is in any of tka Chest affections continue to be of frequent occurrence, and this we must luok for until mild weather sets in, and then fevers will in all probability replace them ; as yet winter cannot be said to have ended, for on the 3d instant we had 'one of the most furious snow storms that we have experienced during the whole winter. It commenced about eight in t►te morning and continued until after mid day. The Third Divis:si, which was out on parade marching exercise, was overtaken ny it, and experienced its full violence. Several men suffered from its effects, and one man, a young lad of the 44th Regiment, died of cold and exhaustion. The ratio of sick has not increased this week, but its dis tribution is altered in consequence of the batteries of Artil lery, and battalions of Land Transport attached to divi sions, being returned with their respective divisions, in stead of being returned as separate and distinct corps, as they have hitherto been. The general health of the Laud Transport Corps con tinues gradually to improve, and in addition to the de crease of numbers in the Head Quarter Hospital Returns, from transfers to divisions, the mortality is less and the form of fever now prevailing amongst the men much milder than it has been. More attention is paid to the personal cleanliness of the then, and to the whole interior economy of the corps than used to be done, which the in creased number of officers recently added to the corps iu all its grades admits now of being effectually carried out. The hospital establishment has benefitted in common with the rest of the corps, more huts have been built, the drunken negligent Regimental Hospital Orderlies have been replaced by men from the Medical Staff Corps, and within the last week six nurses, under the superintendence of Mrs. Stuart, have been added to the orderlies. Of the 17 deaths which occurred during the week, eight were from fever, two from ap plexy, the result of intem perance, three from diseases of the lungs, one from the effect. of frost bite, two from injuries, one in a man of the 11th Hussars, who was thrown from his horse, and ano ther, a man of the Land Transport Corps, over whose head a cart wheel passed. The 17th man belonged to the Army Works Corps, and is returned as having did of gangrene. The ratio of admissions to strength this week has been 2.32 per cent. De , the to strength 0.02 per cent., sick to well 3.98 per cent., all of which I consider remarkably low ; much lower than we can reasonably expect them to continue as the spring advances.—l have, Sta., J.

We have a good demand today for wheat and flour, il!t thz, , full rates of last Friday. In oats and oatmeal there is no change. Beans and Indian corn have each been in fair request at an advance on each of 6d per qr. LEEDS —APRIL 22. We have a moderate show of wheat; there is a little more tone in the trade, and nice fresh qualities fetch ra ther over Friday's rates; other sorts slow sale, and prices unaltered. Barley fully as dear. Oats and beans steady. Other articles as before. Average price of grain—Wheat, 70s 8d; barley, 43 5 10d ; oats, 27s 9d ; beans, 4?s 11d. IPSWICH —APRIL 22. Our wheat supply is scarcely up to that of the last two weeks. Red wheat commands full rates and in some in• stances is per qr. more than last week. Fine samples of barley are taken at late prices, 44s and even 455 per qr. being given. Beans continue in fair supply, and are sold somewhat easier. PER QUARTER.
