Spirit of the Public Journals. ( From the Times of this day.) We have now had an opportunity of learning, and have learnt with very lively interest, the man ner in which the intelligence of the attack levelled, we must say, not only at the press but at the inde pendence of Belgium, has been received by the Legislature of the menaced State, and we are proud to say that it was in every way worthy of a noble country and a glorious cause. With a deliberate and measured calmness, with a studied moderation of tone and an elaborate candour which did not, however, conceal the deep emotion that lay beneath it, M. Orts, a member of the Belgian Chamber, rose to question the Minister of Foreign Affairs. He drew attention to the 22d Protocol of the recent Conferences, which contained accusations against Belgium and the Belgian press offensive to the na tional feeling and dignity, and spoke of the future as full of apprehension. He did not seek to deny the excesses of some members of the Belgian press, but he denied that their hostility was shown to France alone, or that there was the slightest dispo sition to guarantee impunity to such offences. He pointed to the law of 1852 as having been intended and having been sufficient to suppress the licen tious writings complained of in prints so obscure and so despicable that their accusers did not even venture to mention their names, and concluded by asking the Cabinet three questions :—" Whether they had replied to the charges brought forward in the 22d Protocol ? Whether the French Govern ment had demanded any changes in the Belgian Constitution ? and whether, if such changes should be demanded, they would bo acceded to ?'' The answer of M. Vilain, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, to these three questions was equally ex plicit, firm, and satisfactory :—" An answer had been prepared, which would be sent as soon as the proceedings of the Conference had been received. No request had been made by the French Govern ment for a change in the Belgian Constitution ; and, if such request were made, it would never be complied with. The Chamber did not weaken the impressive nature of the scene, as our own House of Commons probably would have done, by following up this short dialogue with a long and rambling conversation, but adjourned at once, leav ing to the nation and to foreign nations to estimate for themselves, without any impertinent comments of its own, the dignity of its demeanour and the firmness of its attitude. We congratulate the Bel gian people and the Belgian Government on the manner in which they have received the attack so needlessly levelled against their dignity and inde pendence. This is the character and this the de meanour which it is the habit of self-government to create. When adverse ,circumstances threaten, the Ministers of a despotic Government feel isolated in the midst of the people whom they govern. They may guess what the sentiments of the nation may be, but there is no tribune to draw them forth, and no press to express them. Reports and procla mations, communicated statements, and essays that have passed through the scissors of the censor, but can ill supply the want of free utterance to a free audience. We hope that Belgium will go en as she has begun, and that, whatever perils her liber ties may be subjected to, betrayal by her chosen and appointed guardians will never be added. What makes the conduct of the Belgian Ministry and Chamber in this Matter the more creditable is, that the Ministry is Conservative and Roman Catho lic, and that, of course, the majority of the Chamber that supports them is of the' same political and reli gious opinions. Were the Belgian mind less deeply tinctured with the noble sentiments of national independence and aversion to foreign influ ence, such an occurrence as the publica tion of the 22d Protocol might well have been laid hold of by a party Conservative and Roman Catholic for the purpose of levelling a blow at their political opponents. " See," they might have said, "what comes of your Liberalism. Your doctrines are inconsistent with the very existence, not only of the Constitution, but of the country. A great and powerful nation throws her sword into the scale and deraancli from us the repression of that unbridled licence which you and such as you liave contributed so much to establish." Instead of adopting this ungenerous but not unnatural tone, the Catholic and Conservative Ministry of Belgium steps forward in the very manner and with the very feelings which Mr. Macaulay delights so much to attribute to the Tories of our own infant consti tution, who never failed to evince a generous in consistency whenever the independence of the country was threatened by the foreign allies of the very cause and King to which they were in the habit of drinking and swearing the most unswerv ing and uncompromising allegiance. While the larger States of Europe are divided into parties de riving their names from their predilections for foreign States, Belgium seems to know no party but a Belgian party,. and to recognise no internal differences when itsforeign relations are concerned. We cannot dismiss this subject without once more expressing our strong conviction that never was a more unfortunate time selected for a most injudicious act than the conclusion of a general treaty of peace for an attack ou the liberty of the press on the continent of Europe. We had just terminated a series of events in which the Emperor of the French had shown himself to the world as a faithful ally, a wise and resolute counsellor, a magßanimous Sovereign, and a man who, pos sessed of great power, had shown a disposition to UAO it with singular equity- and moderation. He took up arms for the defence of European liberties ; ho allied himself with two constitu tional Powers, and, having fought and con quered, scorned any vulgar material recompence for his services, and was wise and generous enough' to content himself with the respect and approba tion of mankind. How unfortunate that at this auspicious moment the over-eager zeal of a Minister (for such we prefer to consider it) should have shadowed forth the commencement of new troubles just as the old were ceasing, and taught the world to look for a ern:m(le against human liberty in th e West as a sequel to te coniict against Russian &valuation in the East ! How unfortunate that we should thus be forced to remember that the present alliance is "magis inter pares quantsimiles," and that the union which has braved so many storms unscathed may be at any moment dissolved by an attempt to extend over neighbouring States that system of oppression and coercion which is so foreign to our feelings and habits ! We are well content to leave those matters in which the inter- nal government of France differs from that of England without comment of any kind; Lut our silence must not be interpreted into indifference. We are content with the happiness we enjoy under our own institutions, and have not a particle of the proselytising spirit among us ; but our sympathies are quite as warm for the West as for the East, for the Christian as for the Turk, for the free citizen as for the serf ; and we cannot witness without the liveliest solicitude and anxiety an attempt to im pose on a free and independent State that repres sion which France has, indeed, chosen for herself by the votes of 8,000,000 citizens, but which she has not acquired the right to impose upon States which have made a different choice. (From the Morning 'Pose of this day.) The Italian question becomes daily more inte resting—hourly more exciting. It has been thought, no doubt, by many that after some little stir in the Congress the matter would fill to the ground, as many political questions have before fallen ; but in this case interests too vital are at stake to be disposed of and laid aside after result less discussion. Strong passions are enlisted, too, in the great question of Italian freeaom---passions which do not now appear, but which may burst forth at any moment. From one end o f th e Peninsula to the other, a deep, a living excite ment prevails, and every move in the political world is noticed with anxious attention. The hour is c ome when misgovernment and oppression must yield t o the paramount force of public opinion. Yet sufficient.% not promised in Naples. Rome makes no attempt her at improvement. Aus tria tries to consolidateeiusthiofild justified u in pon e th u e pnro vincess which she is not nder these circumstances, Sardi n i a —tee? ' on g o . cons titutional kingdom of the Peninsula the one representative of progress and freedom steps he forth, and in the important note Which will found in another column, boldly de c l ares the necessity of active exertion, and calls u poti land and F rance to concert with h er t "0 .0 means of remedying the present disastrous state of things. The Sardinian Government is really forced thus to - act, for it is acutely see _ Bible of the agitation which prevails throughout Italy ; and, indeed, is awake to the perils which itself incurs, from the danger, on the one hand, of the outbreak of a wild and desperate revolution ; on the other, from the continually encroaching ascendancy of Austria. R es i s ti ng d espo ti sm on the one side, and discountenancing demagogy on the other, the Government of Victor Emmanuel announce themselves beyond everything anxious for liberal reforms in the various Italian States, and for the w ithdrawal from them of th e f ore i gn i troops whose presence s at once so mischi evous and hateful. Ou r counsel and aid are ask e d f or , and will, no übt, as far as practicable, be aff or d e d ; but it were idle to conceal from ourselves the diffi culties ofa cause in which, though our heart may be in it, it is of little use unless our hand be there too. The relations between Austria and Sardinia are at the present moment hostile in the extreme ; an d when we look at the state of affairs in Par ma and elsewhere, a nd remem b er th e passions that are cherished at Milan, it is impossible not to perceive that at any moment the slightest spark may get fire tQ.tha. rowlY olcquort oi'expleßiQn, Iti haW THE SUN, LONDON, _MONDAY E VENi.N 0, MAY 12, 1856. to say which task appears the more difficult—to procure the reform or to preserve the peace of Italy. Difficult or not, the labour lies before us, and must be performed. The whole public feeling of this country is with Sardinia in her honourable attempt to ameliorate the condition of the Italians ; and the despotic States would do well to consider this before they attempt in any way to coerce our Ally, for they may rely upon it we would not sit by and see our gallant friend worsted in a cause with which our own efforts have always been identified. What an absurdity it would be to make such vast and successful exertions to benefit Christians in Turkey, and yet leave millions in Italy suffering under misgovernment worse than that of Turkish pachas or Russian generals. We shall support reform in Italy with the force of our public opinion ; and how England can back heropinions, if forced to do so, has been lately shown. We shall use every pacific means in our power, and we trust not unsuccessfully, to promote a happy change, and to obtain for the Italians a new and liberal mode of government, such as may satisfy their wants, and assure the welfare of the Penin sula and the tranquillity of Europe. Naval and Military Intelligence. The following letter is dated Malta, April 30 : " Her Majesty's screw steam sloop Ariel arrived from Gibraltar on the 24th for the purpose of having her pur ser and paymaster, Mr. Bennet, tried by court-martial on a charge of defrauding his messmates and making false entries, to the prejudice and damage of the Government, in his private accounts. The trial took place on Mouday last, when he was dismissed her Majesty's service and condemned to two years' imprisonment, one-half of the term with hard labour. The Ariel left on her return to Gibraltar on the 30th inst. " Her Majesty's steam-frigate Furious, which left Malta on the 20th, towing the Tribune steam-frigate, conveying Earl Dalhousie and family to England, returned on the 27th, having left her charge well on her voyage to Gibraltar, with a fair wind and fine weather. "The Jason steam transport arrived on the 28th from Southampton in ballast, and left on the same day for the Crimea. "The golden Fleece steam transport arrived from the same port on the 28th, and left for Constantinople on the same day. "The Calcutta steam transport, with stores for Malta and Constantinople, arrived from Southampton on the 27th, bringing the widow and two children of Col. Bur mester, Royal Engineers, who dropped down dead two days after leaving England from a disease of the heart while on deck, apparently in good health, conversing with his wife. The deceased had lately been appointed to Corfu. (From the Daily News of tltis clay. ) In another column will be found the - appeal pre sented, by Count Cavour and his colleague in the Conferences, of Paris to the Cabinets of the Tuileries and St. James's, after the Congress had refused to take into consideration the state of Italy. This ap peal, or representation, or protest—call it what you will—is probably the most eloquent document of its kind recorded in history. Measured in its lan guage, as became the representatives of the monarch who has disarmed revolution by governing in a con stitutional manner, carefully avoiding every ex pression that might excite the susceptibilities of the despotic Governments, still the Sardinian re monstrance presents such a picture of lawless en croachment on the independence of other states, and of mad provocation to revolution by brutal oppression on the part of Austria, as the most glowing words of poet or of orator might have failed to produce. . _ "The Bacchante steam transport arrived from Lon don and Gibraltar on the 29th with stores. "The Chersonese steam transport, from Liverpool, ar rived on the 30th. " The English brig Violetta arrived from Genoa on the 24th. " The Alps steam transport left for Constantinople on the 24th, followed on the 25th by the Arthur Gordon steam transport. " The Adelaide steam transport left for the Crimea on the 25th. "The Linda and the Ercole arrived from Tripoli on the 28th. "The Calcutta left for Constantinople and Balaklava on the 28th. " The Norman steam transport arrived on the 29th from Ismid. Let us recall to the memories of our readers—a. subject passed over in silence by the Sardinian Pleni potentiaries—what had taken place in Italy between 1830 and 1848. The combustion kindled by secret associations had been quenched in blood. A brief in• terval of despair and inaction succeeded. Continued misrule, however, speedily resuscitated plots and conspiracies. But a wiser spirit was at the same time awakened among some distinguished Liberals. A party was formed, and became rapidly powerful, which aimed at gradual, practical reforms, not at revolution. In 1847 members of this party were to be found in every state of the Peninsula, and had gained. influence even with some of the Governments. Its strongholds were the Legations and Piedmont. The events which took place at Paris in 1848 ex cited a sympathetic emotion throughout Italy ; but had the Italian Governments acted with ave rage prudence, firmness, arid sincerity, this con stitutional party would have been able to have maintained its ascendancy. Falsehood and vacil lation, however, on the part of the rulers precipi tated the Peninsula into the revolutionary gulf, from which Piedmont alone ultimately emerged. Since that time despotism has, except in the Sar dinian States, continued to display, if possible, more of its inherent brutality and folly than for merly. Under a wise and liberal government Piedmont has become daily more tranquil and pros perous. Throughout the rest of Italy all has been anarchy. Oppression has provoked conspiracy ; a foreign mercenary soldiery has been called in to prop up the tottering thrones of secular and ecclesiastical tyrants by its bayonets ; and in the struggle between ruthless Governments and maddened subjects all the bonds of legiti mate society have been relaxed. The brigands are the real masters of Central and Southern Italy. For years the constitutionalists of Central Italy clung to their faith in moderate and legal means of obtaining redress, but of late continued misery has made them waver ; and the peremptory refusal of the Congress even to listen to the story of their wrongs is likely to drive them to have recourse to the "wild justice of revenge." _ "The Euphemus sailing transport arrived from Bala kls,va and Constantinople on the 29th with returned stores and Russian cannons, and left for England on the 39th. The Columbian steam-transport, in the French ser. vice, arrived from Marseilles on the 27th, with stores for Cbnstantinople, having on bard 14 French officers, and left for Constantinople on the 30th. " The French transport brig Nouveau Fernand ar rived on the 30th from Civita Vecchia. "The French line-of-battle-ships Marengo and Char lemagne arrived on the 25th from Kamieeh, Tenedos, and Milo, the former bringing 800, the latter 1,200 offi cers' non-commissioned officers, and privates. Both left for Marseilles on the 28th.

" The Ottoman sailing frigate Ghivan Bahri, aft€r having been nearly six months at Malta awaiting a turn to enter the dry dock to repair, having bore up leaky from the vicinity of Algiers, took her departure for Li verpool and the Clyde to be fitted with steam machinery. "The Vatican French postal-steamer left for Messina, the continental ports of Italy, and Marseilles on the 24th. "The Mersey, from Marseilles, and the Capitol, from the same port, the continental ports of Italy, and Mes sina, bringing the Post-office mails, arrived on the 27th ; the former left for Alexandria on the same afternoon, the latter will leave on her return voyage to-morrow. "The Siinois, French postal•steamer, arrived on the 28th from Marseilles. "The Indus, Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-packet, arrived from Southampton and Gibraltar on the 29th. This it is - which has extorted from the Sardinian Government the earnest and anxious appeal to which we have invited attention. Sardinia is tranquil ; its Government is paternal, its people are free, loyal, and obedient to the laws. But the Piedmoutese are Italians as well as subjects of the King of Sardinia. They are allied by blood and marriage with the inhabitants of Lombardy, the Legations, and the Duchies. They speak the same language ; they cherish the same historical memories. They have among them many who have soughs refuge in constitutional Sardinia from the intolerable wrongs to which they were subjected in the neighbouring states. Men goaded beyond endurance are liable to rush to the conclusion that " he who is sot with them is against them." The Sardinian Govern ment, by maintaining a neutral attitude between the oppressors and the peoples of Italy, incurs the risk of losing the confidence of its subjects, and awakening the flames of revolution within its own frontiers. At the same time it is menaced by Aus tria, the accomplice and abettor of every tyranny. The Austrian Government has at no time concealed the dissatisfaction with which it views the constitu tional policy of Sardinia. It has repeatedly sought out pretexts for fixing a quarrel upon that state. At present, not satisfied with fanning the revolu tionary flame throughout Italy by acting as the hangman of her despots, Austria is augmenting her forces in the territories bordering on Piedmont, and occupying strong positions all along the southern and eastern frontiers. The meaning of these preparations may be read but too clearly by the light of past history. Austria is making ready to avail herself of any disturbances in Piedmont as a pretext for taking military occupation of the country and subverting its constitutional govern ment. Sardinia is in imminent danger of being crushed by the collision between despotism and anarchy. This prospect has wrung from the Sar dinian Government that remonstrance which we cannot otherwise designate than as a cry of agony extorted by the prospect of impending destruction. The remonstrance demonstrates that the peace of all Europe, no less than that of Italy, is placed in extreme peril by the encroachments of Austria and her complicity with the emasculated despotisms of the Peninsula. We know that the sympathies of the best liberal statesmen of England are with the Italians ; and we trust that the dangers which menace the repose of Europe, will rouse them to act upon these sympathies. We trust that the French Government will discern the neces sity of co-operating heart and hand with England and Sardinia. The apparent coldness of the French Government with regard to Italy has given fresh courage to Austria. The culpable language of Cunt Wale wski with reference to the Belgian press —of the folly of which it is rumoured his Go vernment has become fully aware—has induced Austria to attack the press of Piedmont. We have confidence in the justice and courage of the Piedmontese Courts of Law ; and, as Austria has been obliged to resort to legal proceedings, we have no fears for the free press of the Sardinian domi nions. But if Austria bo worsted in the "wager of law" to which she has had recourse, we dread the consequences of h er v indictive anger for Sar dinia. We do, therefore, most earnestly desire that the English Government may give free course to its generous sympathies, and that the French Government may repair the mischief it has done by coquetting with the despots of the East. Of one thing we are certain : that if Sardinia and Italy are permitted to fall unaided, the effects upon the public mind of France and England will be terrific.

COVET OF QUEEN'S BENCH. ;Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Westminster, before Lord Campbell and a Common Jury.) HILL V. COWLEY-RACING AND BETTING TRANSACTIONS. The plaintiff and the defendant in this case are sport ing men, and the action was brought by the former to recover a sum of 301., which he alleged he had paid for the latter in discharge of a bet on a race. for the officer to see the young woman in that state, sup ported her into the house where she was detained until the following morning, when she contrived to make her way home, but had been ever since suffering from the effects of the injuries. The young woman's mother de posed to her own alarm and anxiety at her daughter's absence the whole night, and that directly her daughter got home in the morning, which she did in a state of great excitement and exhaustion, she dropped in the passage and fainted. On explaining the treatment to which she had been subjected, the witness examined her daughter's person, and found she had sustained the most scandalous treatment, her face, head, shoulders, arms, and other parts of the body being severely contused and excoriated, and in fact she had been unable to leave the house for several days in consequence. Mr. Wakeling addressed the magistrate on behalf of his client, and called two witnesses to prove that the whole of the injuries the young woman had sustained were entirely attributable to her own imprudence, but this was entirely denied by the complainant herself, con firmed in great measure by the constable, and the defence was so inconsistent with the facts clearly established that Mr. Ham will at once sent the ease before a jury, and ordered the defendant to put in bail to be answerable for his future appearance. SOUTHWARK.—Saturday being appointed for the re-examination of Ir. H. Aubert, a gentleman residing at No. 32, York terrace, Regent's Park, who was charged on Friday, the 2d inst., with indecently assault ing Sarah Wainwright and Elizabeth Wainwright, chil dren of the respective ages of 6 and 3 years, daughters of a poor widow, living at No. 53, Surrey-row, Blackfriars road, and representing himself as a medical matt con nected with the British Orphan Asylum, the court was excessively crowded by persons anxious to bear the pro ceedings, as a person, answering to his description, has for some time been in the habit of committing similar offences in various parts of London. There were several charges against him, owing to the publicity given of last week's proceedings in the newspapers. Mr. J. Payne, instructed by Mr. Pearce, the solicitor to the Society for the Rescue of Young Women and Children, of 11, Poultry, appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Allen, front the Associate Institution for improving and enforcing the laws for the protection of women, was also present to watch the proeeedings ; and Mr. Solomon appeared for the prisoner. It may be recollected that a short time ago an adver tisement was inserted in the Times, by Mr. Daniel Cooper, the secretary of the first-named society, with a view of obtaining an asylum for Mrs. Wainwright's chil dren, and a situation for herself, as nurse in a private family. O❑ Wednesday morning the 30th ult. the pri soner called at her house, and told her he had seen the advertisement, and that he wished to place the two chil dren in an Orphan Asylum. The children were shown to him, when he said that ho was a medical officer con nected with the British Orphan Asylum, and that he must carefully examine them as to their state of health and bodily condition before he could recommend them. Mrs. Wainwright, believing that he was a surgeon as he represented himself to be, reluctantly complied with his reque-t, when he then treated the poor children in a most disgusting manner, having previously stripped them naked. He then left the poor woman, promising to call in a day or two with orders for the children's admission into the British Orphan Asylum, at Clapham. After be was gone the mother had her doubts about him on ac count of tie, brutal manner in which he had treated the children, and having communicated the circumstance to a neighbour she suspected him of being an impostor. Actor tingly, when be called again, on Friday morning, the 2d instant, Bryan, a journeyman plasterer, was concealed in a cupboard, and soon as the vagabond requested permission to repeat his disgusting conduct by saying that he was a surgeon of the British Or phan Asylum, Bryan rushed out of his conceal insnt and seized him. The wretch trembled at being discovered and offered any money to be allowed to escape, but Sergeant Macarthy, 11 M, cane in and took him into custody. These facts were not denied, and Mr. Combo remanded him for a week, considering that such a case ought to be dealt with by a jury at the sessions. At the solicitation of Mr. Solomon, of the Borough-road, Mr. Combo consented to accept bail for his appearance, and Mr. Wm. Hobson, of No. 43, Har ley-street, and Mr. John Irving Glennie, proctor, of 15, Devonshire-street, and 19, Bennett's-hill, Doctors'-com mons, were accepted asbis sureties in the sum of 2501. eaeh. The prisoner also entered into his bond of 5001., and was allowed to depart with the understanding that he would be forthcoming yesterday. An hour having elapsed beyond the usual time, Mr. Combo ordered the prisoner to be oalled on his recognisances ; and shortly afterwards Mr. Solomon entered the court, and informed his worship that he had just seen a friend of his client, who had informed him that Mr. Aubert left home sud denly last Teesday, and had not been seen since. He supposed that under those circumstances the bail must be entreated. The defendant pleaded—first, payment ; secondly, not indebted ; and lastly, set up the statute of Victoria, under which an action cannot be sustained for the re covery of money won upon a wager. Mr. Huddlestone stated the case, from which it ap peared that the plaintiff, Mr. G. Hill, resides in Man chester street, Manchester-square, and was formerly an hotel-keeper, but is at present of no business or occupa tion. The defendant, Mr. J. Cowley, carries on the business of a paper manufacturer at Fairford, in Glou cestershire, and the bets for which the action was brought were made on certain horses in the Oaks, in 1854. The learned gentleman then called The plaintiff, who deposed that the defendant was in the habit of attending races, and betting on horses, of which he at one time owned a stud. He (plaintiff) felt an interest in racing affair's, made bets on races, and had on many occasions made bets for defendant, to whom he paid over the money when the horse he backed won, and when he lost he paid the money out of his own pocket to the winner, and subsequently received it from the defendant. In May, 1854, the defendant authorised him to back Lady Constance for 25/., and, acting in the transaction for the defendant, he took a bet of 5001. to 251. from a gentleman named Blos, and he subsequently told defendant what he had done for him, and defendant expre-sed himself perfectly satisfied. While the race was being run the defendant asked him to back two other horses for him, Glenstrae and Spinaway, for 51., and he took 101. to 51. on Spinaway from a person named Vin cent. These bets were lost, and he paid the money out of his own pocket, in accordance with his custom, at Tattersall's on the "settling day." From those bets he had not himself received any benefit, whatever ; but he undeft ,ok to make them for defendant out of pure friendship. In cross examination plaintiff said he was in no occu pation at wesent, but he had a small income. Ten year- ago he was an hotel-keeper, and was in the habit of betting for pleasure as well as for gain. He tried to win, of course ; but he never lived entirely by betting, He had kept a betting-house in 1852 ; lost money by it, which he paid, and he then shut the concern up. He did not keep one in 1854. He did not mention it to Bloc for whom he made the bet, not thinking it necessary to do so ; and he was the only person who was responsible to Bloc for the wager. Lady Constance never started. She was not "scratched" when the bet was made. The defendant told him to back her "on the quiet," as he did:not himself wish to be known in the transaction, from the circuinstance of his having a horse in training in the same stable with her. He would swear he had never seen the defendant before the 4th of June, nor since then, until the present time. He never met him in Holy well-street, Strand. Had not a conversation with him there, nor did the defenda n t t a k e out his pocket book there and pay him the 301. It was not true that he had seen the defendant since at the Egham races. He did not come there, as be (plaintiff) would have turned him out of the ring if he did not pay the money. Mr. Bloc was than called, and he proved having made a bet of 5001. to 251. against Lady Constance with the plaintiff, and having been paid by him on the following Tuesday at Tattersall's. The defendant's name was never mentioned in the transaction. Mr. Hawkins addeessed the jury for the defence, and said it would be for them to judge between the conflict ing testimony, as the defendant would swear he had already paid the 301. ; and, apart from that, the action could not, he contended, be sustained inasmuch as the claim arose out of a gambling bet between the parties, and was not for money paid for on account of the defen dant. Ho then called The Defendant, who deposed that be had never made the bet on Lady Constance with the plaintiff, and that he had never authorised him to make it for him with any other person ; neither bad the plain tiff told, him that he had made the bet with Blos, nor that he had pail the money to that individual. He remembered baying backed "Spinaway" for 5/., and that the plaintiff accented the bet; but he had never heard from plaintiff that a Mr. Vincent was con nected with the bet until plaintiff came into the box. He came to London a few days after the race, and met the plaintiff in Holywell-street ; and he then said to him " I will pay you the 301." He accordingly took out his pocket-book and gave - him that amount in bank-notes. Ho did not take a receipt. They both talked about the horses on the occasion, and he had seen plaintiff once or twice since then. He saw him last at Egbam Races, Mr. Payne said he had the honour to attend for an As sociation fir the Protection of Females to prosecute this brutal fellow, who, he was sorry to say, was connected with a wealthy and highly-respectable family, and he considered that, before the gentlemen became bail for him, they ought to have beon fully satisfied that he would surrender. In his opinion he believed they knew be would not, and did not care about 5001. or 1,000/. as long as they could liberate the man. Since the publica tion of this case there were others brought to light, and he had now five more charges against him for his mis conduct towards young women by representing himself as a surgeon connected with an orphan asylum. Mr. Charles Woolooton, a gentleman connected with the British Orphan Asylum, informed his worship that the prisoner had nothing whatever to do with them, neither wag he known to them in any way. Mr. Combs said that there could be no doubt of his imposture, and chat he had been guilty of brutal conduct towards the children, but he had not surrendered. Mr. Solomon intimated that the bail were ready to pay the money they had forfeited as the prisoner had de camped. He supposed there was an end of the case. Mr. Payne said the case should not end there, as he should indict the nrisoner at the sessions, and on a true bill being found apply for a judge's warrant to apprehend him. Such a scoundrel, although he was rich, and con nected with a high family, could not be allowed to escape. Perhaps his worship would grant a warrant, as he had not surrendered to his bail. Mr. Combo observed that Mr. Payne had better take the course he had alluded to, by applying to 4he judge at sessions. At present he should not grant a warrant. What he should do would be to direct the recognisances to be estreated, and issue distress warrants upon the geJils and chattels of the prisoner and his sureties which would be placed in the hands of the officers of the court immediately. Mr. Solomon said there would be no need of that, as the money would he paid. Mr. Payne was sorry that bail had been taken at all, as the other charges ware of a very serious description. However, the society would lose no time in looking after him, as they were determined to prosecute to the utmost limit of the law. in 1855, and met him in "the Ring." hill, on that occasion, did not say anytning about the 301. Cross-examined.—He backed Lady Constance because she was a good mare ; but he had not kept a betting book for four or five years. He had kept race-horses in his time. He had only made a bet once with Hill pre vious to this traosaction ; that was on a mare in a pre vious year, and he won. That bet was paid by Hill. He believed that bet was made by Hill with some other per son on his (defendant's) behalf. He would positively swear that those were the only occasions on whin Hill made bets for him„ He (defendant) received the bank-notes in the way of his trade, but he would not swear whether they were " tens" or " fives." When he returned to Fairford he received a letter from the plaintiff's attorney, requesting him to pay 301.; but he did not take notice of it because he did not owe the money. Mr. Huddlestone having replied on the evidence, Lord Campbell summed up. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for the amount claimed-301. The following is a description of the delinquent :-25 years of age, about 5 feet 7 inches high, swarthy com plexion, dark hair, serious countenance (rather severe), projecting under lip. He generally dresses in black. He says he has a farm in Essex of 215 acres, let to a Mr. Walters fur ten years, and money in the Three per Cent. Consols. THE MAILS.—LIVHRPOOL, May 10.—The Royal mail steam-ship Canada sailed to-day for Boston, with 125 passengers, besides the mails and a large cargo. We bear from good authority (says the Malta Times) that Malta is to have a garrison of nine regiments, and that intimation of the regiments chosen for this ser vice has already been received here. The Madrid journals of the 4th contain no politi cal news. Several persons had been arrested on sus picion of having taken part in the assault on the ma nager of the satirical paper Le Padre Cabos. A vast spinning manufactory, the machinery of which is to be worked by steam, is in course of construc tion at Tarragona. The French residents of Palma, in Majorca, having learned that M. Caba rus, the French consul, is about to leave, have opened a subscription for presenting him with a sword of honour.

BOW-STREET.—George Carey, a respectably-dressed man, who had been seven years a clerk in the Board of Works, was charged before Mr. Henry with stealing a pork-pie, valued at Bd., from - a coffee-house. The prosecutrix, Mary Holt, stated that she kept a coffee-house in Bridge-court, Cannon-streat, Westmin ster. The prisoner had been in the habit of breakfast. ing there occa.ionally, and, although she had constantly missed pieces of bacon, pork-pies, and other articles of provision, she had never thought of suspecting a young man of the prisoner's respectable appearance. On Satur day morning, however, after supplying him with a cup of coffee, an egg, and some bread and butter, she dis tinctly saw him take a pork-pie out of the window and put it into his pocket. She pretended not to know it, but allowed him to pay for his breakfast as usual. H e tendered 6d., and received lid. change. Having already sent for a police.constable, she now gave him in charge. He denied that he had taken anything, but the pie was found in his pocket, and he then offered to pay any sum of money rather than be sent to the police-station. Police-constable A 598 corroborated this statement, and added that, besides the pie, he found 2/. in gold and silver, and a bundle of religious tracts in the prisoner's possession. The prisoner protested very earnestly that he never meant to steal the pie. He took it openly, and intended to pay for it. On being reminded by his worship that this story, was inconsistent with the evidenne, he de clared that the evidence was false. Mr. Henry said the case must go to a jury, but he would remand the prisoner for inquiry. Subsequently, upon the entreaty of a gentleman who said be had known the prisoner for years as a man o f unblemished character, although sometimes eccentric, his worship consented to take bail—two sureties in 89/. each, with 43 hours' notice. •,,,/,...,...,... WORSHIP-STREET.—James Cooke, a young lean of respectable appearance, was charged before Mr. Ham mil with the following unprovoked assault : The defendant had been paying his addresses to a pretty young woman named Rogers, the daughter of re spectable parents at Hackney, and entitled to some in dependent property. The suit was not altogether fa voured by the young wornan's friends, and her mother happening to overhear the defendant expressly state that he only cared for the property, and not at all for the young lady herself, the mother warned her daughter of the consequences, and the affair was consequently en tirely broken off, and the defendant prohibited from coming there any more. This appeared to produce a very bad feeling in the defendant, for the young lady shortly after heard that her moral character was being seriously maligned by her former suitor, and while la bouring under feelings of natural exasperation at such unworthy treatment, she unadvisedly went to the defen dant's house in Westmoreland -place, City•road, to de mand an explanation and withdrawal of the aspersions. Instead of apologizin g , the defendant repeated the in sinuation and left the house, followed by the young woman, whom he directly after suddenly seized by the wrists, and, punching her own fits against her face till her nose bled profusely, repeatedly and violently dashed her head and person against a wall till she became nearly senseless and very much injured. While so ill-treating her a conetable happened to mako his appearance, and the defondant's laudiorq, thinking it unsafe for hie Maim P RIOES ofr SHARES.
