THE INSURRECTION IN POLAND. (From the Special Correspondent of the Times.) TARNOW, June 3. This evening news has been received of a number of battles fought, some in the kingdom of Poland, 73ome in Lithuania, some again in the Ruthenian provinces. In other words, fighting has been going on at the same time in ail parts of ancient Poland. I do not think the Poles have won any great victories ; but, on the other hand, it does not appear even from the Russian accounts that they have suffered any great defeats. The particulars of the engage ments have not yet reached us ; but in the mean while it is important to know that there is no peace for Russia on Polish soil, and that from the Baltic to the line of the Dnieper her position is un• s::fe and only to be maintained by a direct exercise of superior force. The recent battles have been fought on the Prussian side of the kingdom, near Konin, in the "government" of Kalisch, and also near Kalish, the provincial chief town ; on the eastern or Volhytian frontier, at Brzescs on the Bug, and near Czersk on the Volhyr.ian bank of the river; in Lithuania, in the forests of Bolvaria ; in Voihynia, near the town of Berdyczew. There have also been numerous skirmishes during the last ten days over a large extent of country in Podolia and the Ukraine. As to the insurrection in the Ruthenian provinces (the Ukraine, Podolia, and Volhynia) those seem to know most about the matter who are the furthest from the scene of action. Proprietors who have estates in these provinces, but who are residing for the present in Galicia, receive but scanty intelli gence from their stewards; and yet it is almost en tirely from the letters of stewards and agents that the accounts of the Volhynian insurrection published in the Polish and in some of the German papers are derived. Concerning the progress of the movement in Podolia and the Ukraine, we are also quite unin formed. To give some notion as to the difficulty of • getting news from these regions I may mention that a letter was received three days ago in Cracow which had been posted at a town in Podolia at the end of April. At this rate we can scarcely expect to have authentic intelligence about even the first events of the Podolian insurrection before the beginning of July. You can step from Podolia into Galicia, and from Kamieniec, the chief town of the province, to the Galician frontier is only a few miles; but Podo- Han letters have to go through a few chancelleries before they reach their destination, and although from Kaminiec-Podolski across the Galician frontier to Cracow i s only a day's journey, the distance is really great if you go round, as the Podolian mail does, by way of Kieff, Moscow, and St. Petersburg. One thing, however, we know for certain by the Russian telegrams, that whether or not the insur rection in the Ruthenian provinces is increasing in intensity, it is eertainly increasing in extent, and now covers the whole of the immense tract of coun try enclosed between the rivers Bug and Dnieper; that the insurgent bands are for the most part well mounted, and that from two estates alone in Vol hynia—those of Count Alfred Potocki and of Prince Roman Sanguszko—they have provided themselves with some hundreds of excellent horses. We know also that the Russians are rather alarmed about the movement in the south-eastern provinces, and that they have 'placed e. very strong cordon of troops, composed of at least 10,000 men, along the line which separates Volhynia and Podolia from Eastern Galicia. As to the peasants, it appears that the Russian! make them fight whether they like it or not. They not only endeavour to excite them against the pro prietors by misrepresentations of every kind, but, if all other means fail, form them into bands, place them between two columns of regular troops, and conduct them against the insurgents, who have then to choose between not returning the fire of the Russians at all, or firing upon Russian soldiers and Ruthenian peasants at the same time. As to the accounts of Russian victories in the south-east, they may or may not be true; but I see that they claim to have gained the day at Koniecpol, where many persons in Cracow know positively from an eye witness that they were beaten and retired with great loss. All we know for certain, when the Russians announce a victory, is that a battle has taken place. It must be confessed, too, that the insurgents are not always accurate in their reports ; unless, in deed, those reports bear an official character, in which case they may be fully trusted. Otherwise, many of the Polish victories are very like certain French victories—that is to say, defeats which ought to have been, and would have been, victories, if something had not happened which did happen. Madame Sophia Minniszewski, wife of the Min niszewski who was murdered the other day by com mand of the Polish National Government, has written to Connt Sigismund Wielopoiski to decline an annuity of 1,000 roubles just granted to her, and to request that the order granting it be rescinded. She has addressed a communication to the same effect to the Minister of the Interior. Madame Minnisszewski states that by the rules of the State service she is not entitled to a pension, and that she cannot consent to receive money offered to her as an indemnity for the loss of her husband. The assassination of Minniszewski has been ac knowledged in an official publication as the act of the Polish National Government, which, it seems, went through the form of sentencing him to death as a traitor to his country. On what evidence ho was proved to be a traitor to his country does not, of course, appear, nor is that point important, for a man who has no opportunity of defending himself can be proved to be anything. It is quite certain, however, that Minniszewski supported the policy of the Mal quis Wielopolski, and it has been said that he was the author of the notorious article in the offi cial journal of the Russian Government stating that the recruits seized and torn away from their homes in the night seemed glad to have the opportunity of learning habits of order in the Russian army. But it has also been publicly stated that he wrote no thing but feuilletons for the newspaper in question. In either case it was a disgrace for a Pole to be connected with it ; but, at the same time, it is im probable that the secret Government would have waited until May to punish an offence committed in January, nor can one believe that it has undertaken the onerous task of " executing" all the dishonour able men in the country. It is more likely that Minniszewski had found some clue which might have led to the discovery of the National Government,and that he was put out of the way not only because he was considered dishonourable and unpatriotic, but also because he was dangerous. It is said that he was warned some days before hand that he was to die, and after receiving the warning never went out 'Without being accompanied by two police a g ents. The day, however, of the murder being com mitted, there e e happened to be a street fight near the door of his house , and o ne o f hi s attenants took the chief of the brawlers into custody. Just then a barrel orga n began to grind forth, " No, Poland is not lost," and th e remaining for forbidden in t a nn il e ' ing attendant having a sharp and being moreover a man of zeal, arrest e d the offender before he had got to the third bar. A t that moment the long meditated blow was struck. Th e app o inted executioner (who by this time must be a practised hand) had followed Minniszewski into the hous e , an d, seizing mouth from behind, and laying his hand over his s il e nce his cries, stabbed him to the hearotuthThe to executioner, er murderer, or whatever he is, got into a carriage when he had done the deed, an d calling to the police agent who had an ear for music, \ said to him, " You amuse yourself by running after organ-players, and you don't see that in that house a man is being assassinated." The agent ran into Minniszewski's house, and saw a fresh example of the power of the Polish National Government. A conspiracy must fight with conspirators' waa_ panF, and it is not to be expected that th e Polish National Government wil l g ive up assass i na tion as a means of enforcing its authority. But though it attempts to give to its sentences the form of judicial condemnations, the fact nevertheless 'finsr tha it executes men who have no opportunit fnd t ing themselves. Since Minniszeswski's affair no le ss than eight persons have been stabbed to death by order of the Polish National Government. One of the nnnaber was a contractor, who for some years had supplied the Russian Government with lead for bullets. Some interesting particulars respecting the life and death of the gallant Narbutt have lately been made known. Ludwik Narbutt was the son of S. Narbutt, the author of several esteemed works on the history of Poland. He was born in 1831 at a village in the province of Wilna, and was educated at the Wilna high school, where he distinguished himself so much that in the revolutionary year 1848 (when the Russian Government was constantly on the watch for " manifestations" on the part of the Poles) he was accused on some futile pretext of in subordination, and sentenced to receive 100 lashes, which were inflicted upon him in presence of his father. He was afterwards sent into the army, and served as a private soldier in the Caucasus until the Crimean war broke out, when his regiment was sent towards Kars. At the siege of Kars he dis tinguished himself, was badly wounded, and, having been recommended by Gen. Mouraveiff for promo tion, was raised to the rank:of lieutenant. The first use Narbutt made of his commission was to resign it. He retired to Ejz.zyski, his native village, in Lithuania, and there married, and occupied him self quietly with the management and cultivation of his estate until the beginning of the present year. When, however, the forced recruitment led to the desperate resistance out of which grew the present war of independence (as the insurrection may now be fairly designated), Narbutt left his country re treat and placed himself at the service of the Polish National Government. When Lithuania was called to arms, the first band that took the field was under the command of Nar butt, and the first battle that was fought in Lithu ania was gained by Narbutt at the head of 60 men against a Russian force of 300. A great deal of the success which attended his subsequent orerations, carried on against greatly superior numbers, was due to the assistance rendered to him by the peasants of his district, who, during his residence among them,had received numerous proofs of his generosity, and of the deep interest he took in all that con cerned their welfare. Narbutt had been about three months in the field when the Russians, in accordance with the system pursued by them towards all the Polish chiefs as soon as they have sufficiently distinguished them selves to become objects of European interest, concentrated their troops around him, and pre pared to fall upon him with irresistible forces. Before the attack was made, the Russian General Timefieff is said to have put on the dress of a peasant, and in that disguise to have approached Narbutt's camp. Having completed his observations in com pany with another spy, he retired and prepared a surprise, which was effected on the morning of the sth of May. It is already known that during the action which followed Narbutt was wounded in the foot. It appears now that after his immediate at tendants had taken him up, and while they were bearing him forwards, he was shot in the breast, and thereupon exclaimed, " I am mortally wounded ; leave me, and save the detachment." The Russians were now pressing closely round the dying chief, but his supporters did not dream of abandoning him, and remained with him until all of them were shot down. Not one escaped with his life. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN. The adjourned Wharncliffe meeting of this company was held yesterday at the Euston-station ; Mr. Brown-Westhead, AI. P,, in the chair. Mr. STEWART, the secretary, having read the notice of adjournment, The CHAIRMAN said the first bill he had to submit for their approval was the London and North-Western Addi tional Powers Bill. It was an omzibus bill, and sanctioned various improvements to enable them to facilitate the vast traffic they had on certain portions of their line. Mr. BLENKINSOPP, the solicitor, read the heads of the bill for conferring additional powers on the London and North Western Railway Company, for the construction of work, and otherwise in relation to their own undertaking and the undertakings of other companies, and for other purposes. It authorised the company to make a short line to Kirkburton, a loop line at Wigan. The company was authorised to raise £150,000 of additional capital to carry out these additional works, and to create preference or other shares not entitled to arrears, After some observations from Mr. WILLEvms and Mr. MonoAN, A formal resolution approving the bill was then carried unanimously. The next bill submitted was " A bill b empower the Lon don and North Western Railway Company to make new branch railways, and to abandon part of the Chelford and linutsford line of their railway, and for other purposes." The Solicitor read the heads of the bill, which authorised the company to raise additional capital to the amount of £60,000, and to construct a line from Sandbach to Middle • wich and Northwich, authorising arrangements with other companies, and giving the Great Western certain running powers instead of allowing them to make a new line of rail way. _ _ . A formal resolution approving the bill was carried unani. mously, and the meeting was adjourned to Friday. BRADFORD, WAKEFIELD, AND LEEDS On Monday a Wharncliffe meeting of this company was held at Bradford, to consider a bill to enable the company to make a railway to Methley, in the West Riding of York shire.

The report of the directors of this company states that the first section of the State lines, extending from Aarhuns to Randers, a distance of 40 miles, was opened by the King in September last, and the next section of about 65 miles will be opened next autumn. The whole length of the State lines, about 350 miles, will be completed by the summer of 1866. In route with the lines of the islands of Fyen and Zealand to Copenhagen, the Government has recently de cided that large steam ferries shall be constructed to convey trains across the channels of the Belts, and also over the Sound, in connection with the lines of Sweden. On comple tion of the line north to Frederickshaven a daily steam ser vice will communicate with Gottenburg. A working agree ment for a term of 28 years between the company and the Altona and Kiel Company has been provisional►y entered into by the respective boards. By the provisions of this agreement, the Altona and Kiel Company binds itself to make a railway from Altona into the city of Hamburg, and there unite with the lines of Mecklenburg and Hanover. By this project a continuous line from Denmark to the con tinent will be established. The company's engineer reports that the whole of the bridges are now of a most substantial character. The capital account shows that £655,923 had been received and expended. RAILWAY BILLS. On Tuesday, after hearing —ut her argu ments of counsel, th e c om mittee passed the Lynn and R ton Bill. M r .

This was an undefended suit by the husband for a divorce, on the ground of his wife's adultery with the co-respon dent. The marriage was solemnised at Leeds in May, 1846, and there were four children issue of the marriage. The petitioner was a clerk at the Leeds Iron Works, and the co-respondent was a performer at the Leeds Theatre. John Pbensi, a tailor of Leeds, said he was acquainted with Mr. and Mrs. Forth between 19 and 20 years, and that he occasionally visited them after their marriage, and the petitioner always treated his wife very kindly in his presence. He remembered seeing Wylde and Mrs. Forth in January of this year in the presence of Mr. Joshua Whittaker. He also saw them at the theatre, but on that occasion they were not together. Sarah Ann Broadbent said she was a single woman, and kept a lodging-house at Leeds. In the year 1361 a female took lodgings at her house, who represented herself as a widow. Some time after the co-respondent took lodgings at her house. He and the female in question, who was the respondent, were very intimate, ar,d she saw Mrs. Forth frequently come out of Wylde's bedroom, and she admitted to witness that she slept with him the first night he came t') the house. She left the house, but returned some time afterwards, and she was drunken in her habits, and caused quarrels in the house. When she left her house finally she took lodgings at the house of a Mr. I\alienzie. Otter witnesses were examined, who gave corroborative evidence as to the familiarity of the respondent and co respondent. Dr. Wambey was counsel for the petitioner. The Court pronounced a decree nisi, with costs. SWAINE V. SWAINE. This was a petition of the wife for judicial separation by reason of her husband's cruelty, to which there was no defence. Dr. Spinks was counsel for the petitioner. Mary Ann Swaine, the petitioner, was examined. She married the respondent at Birmingham, in March, 18L9, she being at the time a widow, in business as an eating housa keeper. The respondent was an optician, but he did not work at his business after their marriage. The respon dent was most violent in his conduct, and on one occasion he attempted to throw a saucepan of boiling water over her. She was compelled to leave him, but was induced to return to him in consequence of his promises of amendment, which he never kept. Amongst other acts of ill-treatment, he was in the habit of spitting in her face, striking her, and one day he seriously hurt her finger by twisting it violently. This evidence was fully corroborated, and the Court granted a judicial separation. WILLOLGHBY V. WILLOUGHBY AND lOHNSON. In this case the husband was the petitioner, and prayed for a divorce on the ground of his wife's adultery with the co-respondent, who was a steward to Lord Dillon, at Ditchley. Dr. Swabey appeared for the petitioner and Dr. Wambey for the co-respondent. The petitioner was originally a clerk, and eventually a manager of the bank at Dantree, and he and the co respondent had been on intimate terms, being members of the same rifle corps. The marriage took place in January, 1856, and there were children. In the course of last year the co-respondent was in the habit of calling on the respon dent during the absence of the petitioner, and some of the witnesses spoke positively to having seen acts of familiarity between them on some of these occasions. Ultimately the respondent went to the residence of Johnson, at a cottage at Ditchley. The Court made the decree nisi, with costs. CROSS V. CROSS. This was a suit by the wife for judicial separation on the ground of cruelty, and there was no defence. Dr. Spinks was counsel for the petitioner. The parties had been married several years, and had a family of nine children. They resided at Manchester, where the respondent kept a print shop. For some time the husband was alleged to have treated his wife with great cruelty, and on one occasion his conduct led to a miscarriage. The petitioner stated that she had frequently black eyes, and that sometimes her person was black and blue all over from the effects of his violence. The case was fully proved, and the Court granted the judicial separation. RICH V. RICH. This also was a case of the wife's petition for judicial separation by reason of her husband's adultery, and there was no answer or appearance on the part of the respondent. Dr. Spinks was counsel for the petitioner. The respondent had formerly been a farmer at Wootton Basset, and other parts of Wiltshire, and the marriage took place as early as 1846. There were five children issue of the marriage living, and the cohabitation continued until March, 1862, when the respondent formed an adulterous connection with a maid servant. It was proved that the respondent visited the woman at Swindon and other places, ' and was in the habit of remaining with her a considerable time and occasionally the whole day. Decree nisi, with cosis. EASTWOOD V. EAST WOOD AND SMITH• This was the petition of the husband, a medical man, and manager of a lunatic asylum in Gloucester, praying for a divorce on the ground of his wife's adultery with the co respondent, a medical student. There was no defence. Dr. Spinks was counsel for the petitioner. It appeared that the parties were married in 1866, and cohabited at Sheffield and elsewhere. The respondent had been a medical pupil at the petitioner's house, and availed himself of that position to seduce the respondent, with whom he afterwards lived openly at Jersey. Decree nisi, with costs. LADMORE V. LADMORE. This was the petition of the wife, praying for a restitu tion of conjugal rights, to which the respondent replied, denying that he had separated from conjugal cohabition with his wife, and praying for judicial separation. He was not, however, represented by counsel. Mr. Searle was counsel for the petitioner. The petitioner was the daughter of a retired Custom house officer, and the respondent was in the employment of his father, a shipwright and boat-builder in Liverpool. The evidence of the petitioner was to the effect that the respon dent threatened her life with a poker, and turned her out of his place, She had endeavoured to induce him to resume cohabitation, but without success. The learned Judge made a decree of monition to the re• spondent to take his wife back. STONE V. STONE AND APPLETON. Sir C. CresswEil, in the course of the day, said that Mr. Justice Wightman r n Mr. Baron Channal were of opinion there should be a rule 111 . 8 i in this case, and had fixed the Sth of July to have it argued, COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. IN THE BANKRUPTCY OF A. C. D. HANCKSLEY. The bankrupt, Archibald Douglas Campbell Hawksley, had been in the Life Guards, had been a farmer, a breeder of race• horses, an extensive better on the turf, and now ap plied fur his order of discharge, owing about £14,000, and with assets about £7,000 in the gross, which, after expenses, will be adequate to a dividend of 7s. in the pound. It appeared from the evidence that for tome years he re sided at a place called the Dell, near Staines, the residence of one Mrs. Horace Pitt—he had there built greenhouses, hothouses, &c., and had borrowed from the lady £22,000 ; that in December, 1862, falling in for £20,000 Consols, which his father left, he paid off the balance of debt due to Mrs Pitt, which balance was then £17,000; and that soon after he came to this court, but, as has been stated, with a very considerable estate. His balance-sheet shows the bankrupt's dealing in horses and betting at races to have been of a very extensive character, but on his betting, as well as on horse breeding, farming, and training, he was a very considerable loser. By betting, in little more than a year, he lost £1,400, but had on a previous year made £1,500; he was, however, unable to keep his chin above water, and voluntarily came to this court, having, with the exception stated, given up all his property, and making the fullest and frankest disclosures in his power. He gave his evidence with the most naive simplicity, and seemed as ignorant of financial matters as one of his own jockeys. Mr. Sargood, on behalf of the assignees, urged that an immediate order of discharge ought not to be granted. The bankrupt's prospects had been blasted, and all his hopes now were in a very barren and miserable speculation, " the turf." A few years ago he was entitled to £20,000 Consols, and had the enjoyment of the interest, £5OO or £6OO a-year. That f5OO or £6OO a-year he spent in a few years,the whole of the principal, nearly £20,000, and had run into debt £12,000 or £14,000 as well. The creditors were indeed sufferers, but the great sufferer was the bankrupt himself. The duty of the Court would be to regard the interests of public justice in dealing with a case like this. The assets would amount to about £7,000, for the affairs of the bank rupt were brought to a crisis in December last. In that month £20,000 Consols fell within the grasp of the bank.. rupt. He had been for some years occupying a charming retreat at a place called the Dell with a lady of means, but into the origin of whose means they were not permitted to inquire. The ornameetal walks and grounds, &c,, were made or improved by Mr. Hawksley, by money obtained from the lady whilst he was residing with her. Those ad vances by the lady to the bankrupt were used for their joint enjoyment, but were from time to time secured in various ways. Ultimately the sums thus advanced by Mrs. Horace Pitt to the bankrupt were £5,000 and £17,000, all of which £22,000 had been paid over to the trustees of the lady. The whole of the £22,000 had, so far as the bankrupt was con cerned, vanished, He did not see that the bankrupt lies open to the charge of contracting debts without reasonable expectation of being able to pay them, but the two points relied on were unjustifiable extravagance in his personal living and rash and hazardous speculation by betting on the turf, If betting was not rash and hazardous then he knew not what was. Mr. Hawksley had not only lived upon his interest but at the same time had anticipated his capital and ran into debt £l4,ooo,the whole dividend upon which would ntiotto thbe more than 7 s , i n th e poun d. Th e y co uld not dive secrets of domestic life, but it was plain that on a property which he was jointly enjoying with Mrs. Horace Pitt, he had spent in a few years £1,400 on hot-houses, green. hou ses , an d forcing-houses alone. Unjustifiable ex travagance was mainly the cause of a pOsitiou discreditable to himself, and which had entailed great sacrifices on the creditors. Mr. Ernest Reed called the attention of the Commissioner to the bankrupt's conduct towards Messrs. Godfrey, nursery. men. He had incurred a debt to them of £1,400, and being unable to pay a balance of £5OO, they gave him ample time and further credit for two years, believing him to be a man of honour as well as of means. Instead of paying Messrs. Godfrey and others, he handed over the bulk of his pro perty to Mrs. Pitt, whohadalready got the whole advantage of the outlay on the property. He had broken his word to Messrs. Godfrey and Co. ; he said he had promised to pay Mrs. Pitt, but he had promised to pay Messrs. Godfrey too, and they ought to have shared equally and fairly. Mr. Lewis drew attention to the unusually large amount of assets, which would, but for the expenses, pay a dividend of nearly 10s. in the pound. Messrs. Godfrey and Co. had already been paid the bulk of their debt, and the other, and the principal debtor, was a bill discounter (a creditor for £5,000), who knew very well with whom he was dealing. There was no stain on the bankrupt's honour, and nothing to disentitle him to his order of discharge. The Commissioner was of opinion that Messrs. Godfrey had made out no case, Lut c - insidering the bankrupt had been guilty of rash and hazardous speculation, and of un justifiable extravagance, the order of discharge must be sus pended for 12 months from this date. Protection was granted. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT, June 10. (Before Mr. Commissioner Kerr.) TRIAL OP THE REV, MR. WYCHERLEY. The trial of the Rev. Thos. Wycherley was to-day pro ceeded with, the same counsel appearing as on Tuesday. Mary Newton was recalled, and again cross-examined, when she stated that she had not known the prisoner more than three days when he asked her for a loan of £ls. She did not know she was to be a witness in this case until she was informed by the gaoler who had her in charge. After the first examination at the police-court, she had' told her lawyer that she had taken a false oath ; but she had further said that when she was next examined, she would speak the truth, as she was very sorry for what she had done. Mary Ann Smith, a former servant of the prosecutrix ; Mr. Frost, of New Bridge-street, with whom the prisoner lodged ; and the police-constables by whom he was appre hended, were examined, but the facts they deposed to have already appeared. This being the whole of the case for the prosecution, Mr. Oppenheim rose to reply on behalf of the prisoner. Happily, he said, charges of this kind against persons hold ing the prisoner's position were very rare, but when such charges did occur, people were apt to be led away by their feelings, and to look upon the prisoners with some degree of acrimony. He would therefore ask the jury to dismiss any feeling which might have entered their minds through reading the public press, and to be wholly guided by their own judgment and the evidence which had been laid before them. The learned counsel then proceeded to analyse the evidence adduced against the prisoner, and contended that the evidence was insufficient to show that he incited the girl Newton to steal the notes and then received them knowing them to have been stolen, The principal witness, he said, was a convicted felon and an unblushing perjurer, whose evidence was totally unworthy of credit. He also urged that, by the law of England, an accomplice's evidence could not be taken unless very strongly corroborated by independent witnesses, and on no one point was Newton's story borne out. After pointing out the contradictory statements made by her, the learned counsel, in conclu sion, said the prisoner was a ruined man, whether they convicted hint or not, and he would leave the case in the hands of the jury, after calling a witness or two, feeling sure that they would do their duty, however powerful might be their feelings. On behalf of the defence the following witnesses were James Cook deposed that he was gaoler at the Lambeth Police-court. He remembered the day on which both Newton and the prisoner had been locked up in the cells, and he was quite sure that no conversation had taken place between them, as Wycherley was locked in a cell in a diffe rent passage. On being cross-examined, this witness admitted that it might be possible for two persons to hear each other if they called out very loud; but unless the passage door was shut he must have heard. Mr. Palmer Neil, solicitor, who appeared to defend the prisoner at Lambeth Police-court, when he was first exa mined, denied thca, he had ever told Newton she had better not say anything against Mr. Wycherley. Mary Anne Newton was recalled, but persisted in her former statement with regard to the conversation which she alleged had taken place between her and the prisoner and her and the last witness, Mr. Orridge then replied upon the whole case, comparing the prisoner to Stiggins in " Pickwick," and said that, like him, he went sneaking about the house of the prosecutria when no one was near to see him. He would ask the jury to judge this man by his conduct and the character of his acquaintances. His Lordship then proceeded to sum up, commenting upon the various points as he went along, and telling the jury that there was quite sufficient evidence, without the story of the principal witness, to have put the prisoner upon his trial, leaving out the question of the felony. Altogether his lordship stigmatised the conduct of the prisoner as most disgraceful for any man who pretended to have one spark of religious feeling whatever. The jury then retired, and after a quarter of an hour's absence from court, returned with a verdict of guilty against the prisoner. The prisoner heard this verdict with an almost imper ceptible quiver of the lip. Mr. Orridge then stated that he had received a number of letters from different parts of the country, from which he learned that the prisoner had been turned out of several chapels in which he had at times officiated, for bad conduct. The prisoner was then asked if he had anything to say why sentence should not be passed upon him ? Prisoner : I beg to protest against the statement which has just been made use of by Mr. Orridge, as to my being turned out of any chapel or place of worship whatever, and I sclemnly swear before God that I am innocent of this charge. I deny that I ever had more than one £5 note, or that I had anything at all to do with the robbery, and as I aat innocent so I hope the sentence passed upon me will be the heavier. His lordship then addressed the prisoner, and told him that he fully concurred with the verdict. He had had a fair, lengthy, and impartial hearing, and the jury had unanimously decided that he was guilty. The crime he had committed was so much the worse from the fact that he was a man who under the garb of sanctity had wormed himself into Mrs, Levy's household and then basely robbed her, with the help of the servant. His defence had been a very able one, so that he had nothing to com- plain of, but he (the learned judge) should not sentence him any more heavily for the wish he had expressed. The sentence of the court was that he be kept in penal servi tude for six years. After the sentence was passed there was considerable applause in court, bat it was speedily suppressed. HEALTH OF LONDON, (From the Registrar-Ginerars Weekly Return.) The deaths in London, which were 1,296 in the last week of May, fell to 1,214 in the week that ended last Saturday. the mean temperature of the air was about 53 deg. in the first two weeks of May; in the last week of the month it was 55.4 deg., and in the week ending 6th June it was 57'2 deg. The average number of deaths, as derived from the re turns of weeks (in 1853-62) nearly corresponding with last week is, with a correction for increasing population, 1,132. The actual number is therefore in excess of the estimated number by 82. The deaths from small-pox were not so numerous last week as they were in any of the eight previous weeks, dur ing which period they were never lower than 60, and in five instances they rose to 68 or more. Last week the num ber was 56. The 56 deaths from small-pox occurred as follows :-4 in West distriets ;21 (including Bin the Small-pox Hospital) in the North districts ; 8 in the Central ; 14 in the East districts ; and 9 in those on the South side of the river. There were 4 in the Rectory sub-district of Marylebone. Scarlatina was fatal in 72 cases, 4 of which were in the St, John Paddington sub-district, 5 in Islington West, and 4 in St. James Bermondsey. A widow, aged 60 years, died at No. 3, Mulberry-court, Shoreditch, on the 19th of May, by " effusion of serum on the brain, from want of food." A surgeon, aged 32 years, died from " an overdose of chloroform." Last week the births of 971 boys and 877 girls, in all 1,848 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1853-62 the average number (corrected) was 1,850. METROPOLITAN WAIERS IN MAY, 1863.

For the sake of comparison, the amo un t o f i mpur ity in a surface well water in St. Mary lebone is given, w hich contained much ammonia, an evi dence of it, recent admixture with sewage.

TIM ES.—For the first time in the history of the American war a long narrative of Federal victories has been substantially confirmed. The game, it is true, is by no means played out. The capture of Vicksburg, which was the object of all these opera tions, is not yet accomplished, nor is it at all certain that the enterprise will not end in disaster to the forces of the North. But it is nevertheless certain that a Federal General has planned an ingenious expedition against the Confederate stronghold, and thiit he has cdvanced towards his end by a succes sion of victories at one point after another. This much is now established by the reports of the Con- 'ederates tt emselves, and to that evidence we can now add the authority of our own correspondent in the South for the first chapters of the story. The operations against Vicksburg have been so elaborately concerted between thu military and naval commanders, that we may assume the design to have been of some standing. General Grant and Admiral Porter must have been patiently completing their preparations while the attention of all people was concentrated on the Rappahannock, and their first rr ovement, indeed, was made at the moment when Lee was confronting Hooker in the plains near Fredericksburg. We now see, through the mists of conjecture and rumour, what the Federal flotilla was doing on the Mississippi, and why trans ports and gunboats were so recklessly pushed by the batteries of Vicksburg. That city, as every body now knows, stands on the left, or eastern, bank of the Mississippi, just where the river makes a deep bend. A little above it the Yazoo runs into the great stream, and a short distanca below it the Big Black River does the same. At the mouth of the Y zoo stands Haines Bluff, a posi tion fortified by the Confederates ; at the mouth of the Big Black River were their batteries of Grand Gulf. Thirty miles or so east of Vicksburg lies the town of Jackson, the two places being connected by a railway which enters Vicks burg at its rear. All this country was in the hands of the Confederates. The Big Black River, running in a south-westerly direction to Grand Gulf, cuts the Vicksburg and Jackson Railway about ten or twelve miles from the former city, so that a force advancing up the stream from its mouth would find itself in the rear of Vicksburg and on the line of its communications with a friendly region. To place himself in this advantageous position was the object of General Grant in the present expedi tion. For this purpose it was arranged that Admiral Porter, commanding the Federal flotilla on the Mississippi,should force his gunboats and transports at any risk past the ViAsburg batteries, and this was done. The transports were empty, so that the loss incurred was in vessels only, and when a certain number had run the gauntlet and survived, troops were marched across the tongue of land left by the great river's bend and embarked in them. These were then carried down to Grand Gulf, at the mouth of the Big Black River, where Gen. Grant ulti mately found himself in command of 40,000 or 50,000 men. The Confederate positions at Grand Gulf and at Port Gibson in the immediate vicinity were successfully carried, and then the expedition advanced up the stream. With an activity which our Southern correspondent describes as " surpris ing," Gen. Grant marched upon Jackson and cap tured the town before any successful resistance could be organised. The Confederate forces in those parts were divided between two commands. Within the lines of Vicksburg General Pemberton had a disposable army of some 15,000 men. while outside, in the open country, was General Joseph Johnstone with about 12,000 more, and re inforcements at no great distance. Grant's advan tage was that he could encounter each of these armies in detail with a much superior farce, and this advan tage he turned to excellent account. As he fell upon Jackson his numbers were sufficient to keep John stone aloof, and though Pemberton marched out to meet him as he turned upon Vicksburg, and bravely contested his advance at more than one point, the Northern General was strong enough to win battle after battle, in short, he succeeded in planting himself in the rear of Vicksburg and forthwith commenced his assault upon this, the weakest, point in the defences of the city. So far, therefore, the expedition has been remarkably successful, and it reflects unwonted lustre on the Federal arms. With a comparatively small army General Grant has done more to alarm the Southerners and threaten their most important positions than ever was done by any of his colleagues on the Potomac. He has taken his troops through a difficult country, and in spite of all opposition, to a point of great advantage, from which he may pos sibly secure the mastery of the field. The rest now depends on the strength of Vicksburg, and the en durance of its garrison. The place is beleaguered by land and water. The Northern gunboats are at Haines Bluff and at Grand Gulf in possession of the streams. Others are j ust above Vicksburg, and others again just below it, so that the town is bombarded from the west, while . Grant's eager and triumphant army attacks it from the east. These are strong odds against the South, but unless the game is won quickly it will be all lost, for General Johnstone, who retired northward upon his reinforcements, is rapidly collecting troops, and he can take Grant in the rear as soon as he is strong enough to march. It will be seen, too, that our correspondent's estimate of the impregnability of Vicksburg coincides ex actly with the information hitherto received of the actual siege. Four times Grant has led his troops to the assault, and four times he has been repulsed. If Johnstone falls on his shattered army with a superior force, the victories of the past month will have led the Northern General only to destruction. In any ease, however, the expedition has been creditable to the Northern arms. It was a bold stroke, and has been boldly delivered. It partook even of the nature of a surprise, for though the Southerners were aware that the Big Black River would lead an enemy, if he did but know it, to the most vulnerable point of Vicksburg, they did not anticipate the expedition. It is clear that they have been alarmed for the safety of the place, though there is no despondency in the tone of opi nion. They thought it might fall, but it is felt even in New York that little would fall with it. The event would not insure even the navigation of the Mississippi, while all this time there is a powerful Southern army in Virginia which can scarcely now be kept even nominally in check by the baffled and broken army of the Potomac. Southern journals are speculating on an imminent crisis, apart from all operations on the Mississippi. Gen. Lee is thought to be threatening Hooker with attack, and to be concerting with his colleagues an advance on Washington. It is curious to observe that this critical contest at Vicksburg has been left to two insignificant armies. The great armies of the South- West, under Bragg and Rosencrans respectively, are confronting each other immovably in Tennes see, and though Johnstone will probably summon succours from all parts, he must double his force be fore he obtains even as many men as Hooker left behind him on the field of Chancallorsville. -Which , ever way the siege may end, it will leave the chief forces of the belligerents absolutely untouched. Even if Vicksburg should fall, it is by no means certain that it may not be recaptured by a stronger army appearing upon the scene. There are vast forces in these countries while small armies are fighting the battle, and Vicksburg, if taken, may prove to Gene ral Grant little more than convenient shelter. He is, in fact, in an enemy's country. It was not worth while to molest him so long as he sate hopelessly in his infected camp, but he has now plunged into the midst of his foes, and if he cannot carry the long beleagured city and appropriate its defences, he may pay for the opening successes of his expedi tion by a disastrous, though not inglorious close. HERALD.—There is an old story of a naval officer saying of another naval officer that he was not fit to carry offal to a be ar . Up on b e i ng requ i re d to withdraw the insulting remark he did so by ex pressing his opinion that the officer in question was fit to carry offal to a bear. This is precisely the kind of reparation made by Colonel Calthorpe for his original accusation against Lord Cardigan in the matter of the Balaklava charge. Colonel Calthorpe's original statement was that Lord Cardigan, while leading the first division at that memorable en counter, turned short before coming to the batteries, on account of his horse swerving and taking fright. On being required to amend this statement, on the ground that it involved a charge of military failure not supported by facts, he changed his ground, and declared that the idea of Lord Cardigan being car ried away against his will was doubtless erroneous, his lordship's excellence as a horseman being un questionab.e. This remark, put in a pointed way, and accompanied by a note of admiration to mark the intended satire, of course made matters worse. It declared nothing less than that Lord Cardigan ran away of his own free will, and amounted to an obvious impugnmetat of his lordship's personal courage. This was too much for any man to bear. The accusation of cowardice is one which a civilian cannot endure with honour. But it effects only his private position. In the case of a military man it affects not only his private position, but his public character—it involves r.ot only social d egra d at i on, but his professional ruin. The chastity of honour required by the military code demands that an officer shall—like Caesar's wife—be not only pure bat un suspected. We all kno w how difficult is compliance with this demand under the most favourable condi tions. And, for this reason, military men should, of all others, be most chary of casting a slur upon the character of a brother officer without the most certain proof of the slur being deserved. But it too frequently happ ens t h at m i l i tary men are not suffi ciently alive to this necessity. Mr. Thackeray says, somewhere, that if an Irish gentleman is to be roasted, another Irish gentleman is always found ready to turn the spit. The remark is un just as applied to the Irish nation generally, whose members certainly support one another with at least equal enthusiasm. But it will apply, we fear, to a great extent, to milit :ry roen, who habitually show to one another less mercy than civilians shJw to their class. At military clubs, at military messes, one of the principal social amuse ments appears to be the pulling down of reputations. A civilian suddenly launched into the society is astounded to hear how great battles have been won by nobody in particular, how great honours have been conferred upon the wrong men, and how great names are associated with small things! The ensign mind may perhaps be pardoned for forming rash conclusions and contributing them to the harmony of the evening. But the same conduct in senior offi cers is less excusable, and more especially when they put their accusation into print. Of the latter offence we have seldom heard of a more gross in stance than the accusation mado by Colonel Cal thorpe again Lord Cardigan with regard to the Balaklava charge. Lord Cardigan's account of the manner in which he was cut off from his division after entering the batteries, and had to fight his way back as be best could, is as clear as need be. It is supported by satisfactory testimony, even suppos ing the presumption to be justified that his lordship has a natural turn for untruth, and that he must be considered guilty until he manages to prove himself innocent. Such a presumption we do not venture upon in judging , the most atrocious criminals, and it might -be supposed that in a case involving a question of honour it would be still less applicable, Colonel Calthorpe was well aware of the explana tion Lord Cardigan had to offer. He must have known how uncertain—to say the least of it—was the accusation which he made in point of proof. One would have thought, then, that considering the de licacy of the discussion involved, the honour of the service as represented by one of its most con spicuous officers, which might be considered at stake, besides the possibility of doing an act of indi vidual injustice, that Col. Calthorpe would, upon Lord Cardigan's first representation, have with drawn the scandalous charge. Such reparation would not only have been consistent with the character of a gentleman, but it may be considered to have been demanded by ,he requirements of the case. But instead of :aking this straightforward course, and owning his error, Colonel ealthorpe descended to a worse insinuation, and gave to what might have been con- sidered an act of public duty the aspect of private malice. This reparation might have been made in a graceful and even magnanimous manner at the time. It has been made at last, for Colonel Cal thorpe now withdraws every insinuation affecting Lord Cardigan's personal courage ; but it has been made too late, as far as Colonel Caithorpe is con cerned. The recantation, as regards both fact and opinion, has been extorted from that officer not by appeal to his chivalry and sense of justice, but by the rough expedient of legal proceedings, and the a pparent imminency of a criminal prosecution. Col. Calthorpe stands, therefore, in this position : he has either made a fese charge, or he has declared to be false a charge which was true. The admissions which he has made through his counsel fully justify this conclusion, to say nothing of the destruction of the books containing the offensive matter. It re mains for him to clear himself with society as he best can. With regard to Lord Cardigan's conduct on that terrible day at Balaklava, no doubt ca i n re main in unprejudiced minds. From the first t was admitted on all hands that to have gone any way with that brilliant advance required daring of no common description. And even some slight short comings might have been pardoned in the bravest man upon so thoroughly exceptional an occasion— in an operation of which it has been said —e est magnifique, mais co n'est pas la guerre. But there was no shortcoming upon Lord Cardigan's part. The fact is established upon evidence as upon hon our. It has been admitted by the accuser himself. An impartial tribunal—nearly the highest in the land—after carefully weighing the conflicting state ments, has decided that Colonel Calthorpe's charge was " a most serious libel," and it has refused to sanction criminal proceedings upon a technical ground, marking, moreover, its sense of the merits of the case by dismissing the rule without costs. Nothing could be more clear and patiently impar tial than the judgment of the Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench, and the result was the complete vinnication of the character of the accused. He must be a bold man who ever revives the old Balaklava scandal. DAILY NEWS.—Moral force occupies so large a space i▪ n the political discussions of our times, is credited with so much efficiency, and forms so con siderable a part of the reliance of statesmen, that it is exceedingly important to know whatis the nature of the agent, and what are the conditions under which it may be expected to succeed. We take im mense, tut not excessive pains to prove our new artillery, and are not satisfied until we have ascer tained what strain the guns will bear, what range they will command, and the amount of resistance they will break down and overcome. Moral force is one of the favourite weapons in the armoury or the liberal statesmen of modern times; and it is very desirable that we should know under what circum stances it may be depended on to do effectual ser vice. No one can have failed to notice that in our ordinary discussions two very different things alike receive the name of moral force. The first admiral who was sent by the Emperor of the French to Mexico with an imposing squadron was ordered to approach with his ships and prefer his demands, " relying entirely on the moral effect of his rank and mission." Admiral Napier, as once described by Lord Palmerston, toiling along under the sun dressed like Robinson Crusoe, and taking a fortress in the Peninsula by simply delivering a letter, was said to succeed by moral force. In both these cases, how ever, material force was the efficient cause of success. The careful abstinence from threats which a strong Government sometimes observes fcr political reasons makes no difference to the fact. The threat is real, though tacit, and although more is left to the dis cernment and sagacity of the party than when the menace is expressed. The same kind of in fluence is also exercised in different degrees whenever one Government in any way inten tionally gives another Government reason for believing that a particular course of conduct will convert it into an enemy. And although our fathers did not care to give a pretentious designa tion to influence of this kind, there is nothing absolutely incorrect in styling such an appeal to fear and self-love as a resort to moral force. It is not in this semi-material sense, however, that English statesmen are most• accustomed to under stand either the phrase or the thing. Theirs is a nobler, because a more generous and far reaching, it less immediately practical appreciation of moral force, such as might be expected to be made in a land of settled liberty, where no station or office is so high as to exempt its occupant from the influence of cultivated and freely expressed public opinion. The theory of our leading politicians is, that of the various objects which men pursue, there is none which they more eagerly desire than tho , good opi nion of others. The hatred and contempt of the public are supposed to be intolerable even to Czars and Sultans, who feel extremely solicitous about the opinions even of those by whom it is impossible that they should ever be in the slightest degree injured or benefited. We may suppose that it was a con viction of this kind which led Earl Russell, after observing on a recent occasion that "That which is taking place in Poland has been carried by quicker roads of conveyance than were known in former times to all parts of Europe, and the conscience of Europe has been roused by seeing the religion of a people trampled under foot, by seeing their nation ality despised, by seeing the arbitrary measures dis posing of the lives and limbs of the brave youth of a brave and celebrated nation "—to say, " Depend upon it that public opinion expressed at the present time by three of the greatest and most powerful monarchies of Europe, will be backed and sustained by all minor powers, and in every nation where men can read, think, and feel with regard to the woes of Poland "—and to invite his fellow Peers to rely, among other things, "on that public opinion of Europe which, you may depend upon it, the Empe ror of Russia, autocrat as he may be, will not neglect." There can be no doubt of either the reality or the strength of public opinion in shaping the course of the greatest rulers in the world. But we greatly fear that a mi sconcept i on o f t h e cir cumstances which limit th e o p erat i on o f thi s f orce is mi▪ sleading many Englishmen just now, and pre paring great disappointments for our countrymen. oflt tmhaoyophiuo erieom,arked, by the way, that the influence as such, of a nation so well provided as ours with th e means o f spea ki ng i ts m i n d, i s not increased by the formal representation of that opini▪ on to the State to which it is adverse. Although only the Government can pronounce the national will, it is not the only or even the chief, and not always the true, expositor of national senti ment. If Prince Gortchakoff, after satisfying him self as to what the English Government means to do, still feels any curiosity as to what the En g lish people think, it is to the debates in Parliament, the discussions of the press, and the language of meet ings and petitions, and Mot to the despatches of the Foreign Secretary, that he will look for its satisfac tion. Now, whatever reason there may be for sup posing that the Russian Government takes note of English feeling respecting Poland, there is none whatever for imagining that a mere desire for our good opinion forms the gro und of its solicitude. If that Government can be assured of our strict neu trality, it will resignitself to do without our moral approbation for a tame. There is no instance on record of a Government engaged in a conflict which it regards as one necessary for self-preservation, giving way before the public opinion of a neighbour. The people of the free States of America have shown themselves most anxious for our good opinion, but they have not been moved from their purpose ?yr the fact that, so far as the bu , k of our influential classes are concerned, our good opinion has been withheld, Speak of raising the blockade, however, and they are all attention. So it is in Russie, where the most powerful instincts and passions are on both sales in full and deadly exercise. The pow , r of opinion finds there no field, no voice, no eer. Not only is European opinion unable to influence the general policy of the Russian Government to wards the Poles, but it is incapable of restra inin g that Government within the rules of honour ana humanity in its mode of conducting war. We do not refer to excesses of the soldiery, but to the deliberate acts of the commanders. If there was one thing more than another in which deference to the opinion of the civilised world might have been expected to be discernible, it was the treatment of the insurgent chiefs when the fortune of war places them in the hands of the enemy. But the conduct', of the Russians in this respect is marked by all the old Muscovite barbarism. When au honourable opponent falls into their hands he is murdered in cold blood. Podlewski, after exciting universal admiration for his skill and courage, was shot the other day at Plock. He was plied with offers of advantage if he would embrace the Russian cause ; but on rejecting them he was shot. Kononowice has just been captured by a stratagem. and it is an nounced that he is to be shot immediately. It would cost the Russians nothing to save the lives of these gallant enemies ; their execution outrages the feel ings of every honourable man ; but they are never theless shot. The all-important question with the Russian Government is, not what Europe thinks, but what Europe is ready to do, and whether it will do anything before the Imperial arms have fashioned that god of the statesman's idolatry, the fait acconz ph. If the statesmen of Russia attach importance to our sentiments it is because they know that deep in human nature there lies that which is stronger than cabinet theories, and which before now has led England and France to terrible measures of retribution which did not originate in the policy of statesmen. So far as the Russian Government is persuaded, by whatever means, that it incurs no danger of that kind, it will continue to follows its own instincts and passions, which are also those of the Russian nation, heedless of all mere verbal remonstrance.
