A fragmentary scrap of additional news in regard to the desperate fighting at Gettysburg, enables us to appreciate more distinctly even than yesterday upon which side, before the last advices left, lay the advantage. This brief supplementary morsel of intelligence, moreover, brings down the record of events upon that battle-ground to the evening of the 33 instant—down to the very eve of the greai Republican anniversary. Again the Federal re porters announce the conflict to have been very fierce in its character. Always indulging in the very strongest language—one describes the fight as " the most terrific," another as " the most awful" that has yet occurred since the war com menced. It is curious to analyse the expressions in -which they put forward their claims to be regarded —in this last and, if we are really for once to be lieve them, fiercest conflict—as having proved in the end successful. " Our men," says a special despatch from Hanover, " stood up he ro i ca lly." Observe, "stood up," simply—not ".advanced!" Again, " the loss on both sides was tremendous." Not, as hitherto, in all the previous fighting, at the earliest intelligence, before the actual statistics come dropping in, not as hitherto, a grievous loss on the side of—the Confederates. Now, it looks badly in deed for the North, when their very first claim of the blushing honours of war upon this last day's fighting, comes laden with the significant acknowledgment that the loss on both sides had been tremendous. Notwithstanding which, the Federal reporter—who mentions the fact of his hav ing left the battlefield as late as six o'clock on the 3d inst.—asserts quite confidently "We had the best of the fight to-day." He does not say in what, he does not name any one single advantage in parti cular. Bat in lieu of that, he follows up his boastful claim of victory to the Federals, with this fatally contradictory confession ; " And," he continues, " the General says that if Coucer arrives to-night, the victory is ours beyona a doubt." So, it all rests—in spite of the previous declaration, "We had the best of it to-day"—it all still clearly rests, even then, upon a contingency ! If such and such an event comes to pass, "if COUCH arrives to - night"' the General says that" then " the victory is ours beyond a doubt." A pretty plain revelation, that unlucky employment of the phrase " beyond a doubt," in this or that contingency, th a t so f ar as gone, even in the estimation of the over-confident Federals themselves, there was "a doubt," as the events actually were, about the advantage being their's already. The immediately preceding announcement, as of a fact beyond dis pute, "We had the best of the fight to-day," to the contrary, nevertheless, notwithstanding Perhaps the most audacious attempt at boasting beyond the reach of all Conceivable credulity ever yet ventured upo n b y any Yanke e go b emouehe, in defiance o f the common sense of his fellow-creatures, is evidenced, by the grave announcement, a s o f an actual occurrenc e, of th e followin g prep osterous incident —an incident coolly related as having just transpired in the neighbourhood of Gettysburg "Lieut. KNOWLES "—says this delightful Yankee MUNCHAUSEN, who has a wonderful precision in his style of narrative, it will be observed, both in regard to names and in regard to num bers—" Lieut :nant KNOWLES, with only eight men of Captain BOYD'S command, charged upon SeVentrfiCe rebel cavalry, capturing twenty-two men and thirty-three horses. When returning t o the main command he was cut off by about one hundred and fifty mounted rebels. Ho had to abandon his booty, but not his prisoners, and cut lis way out !" Yet the narrator can quite calmly add, while perpending this absolutely astounding achievement, "The act was a daring and gallant one!" Nothing more I As though ;he charging of seventy five horsemen by eight, and the capture by eight from those seventy-five, of twenty-two prisoners and thirty-three horses [one wonders how many hands the eight Federals had amon-get them ! and whether each was a Yankee BRIARELTS!] were but the most ordinary instance of gallantry among the Federal troopers !

The best that we ne ca u nw ve i n sh au f l or lape ours of time, Empire is a quiet and marked only by the increase of trade and the open. ing of fresh branches of commerce and industry. One of these that may possibly prove of considerable value in the future is already indicated in the news just received. In the small States on the Thibet and Punjab frontiers grows a native grape, which, it is said, promises with care to become of con ,iderable importance. The flourishing condition of the tea trade we have already heard of, and the present news brings us no reason to question its steadily increasing progress. It the present ventures at all realise the anticipa tions of the speculators, and there seems no reason to fear that they will not do so, we shall probably soon hear of the plantations spreading over every available space of the Hill districts; at least wherever the obnoxious restrictions, so highly prized by Sir CHARLES WOOD, do not intervene to check enterprise and expenditure. The neighbour flood of the Hills of Scinde is said to be very well adapted for the cultivation of tea, and probably it will not be long before the experiment is made on a large scale. The great drawback to all commercial enterprise unfortunately still exists, and in many parts of India rich and valuable lands are now lying idle simply because of the preposterous regulations by which it would seem the Govern ment intends to keep off purchasers. We must hope that the sight of the increasing trade and commerce of India, and the contrast between the busy tea gardens and cotton fields, will at length produce their effect in mitigating those extreme and , uconsistent laws with respect to the purchase and survey of the waste land which an hon. member recently charitably suggested must have been tramed as a joke. The cotton trade is rapidly bringing in English gold to India, and the state of the currency is satisfactory. Our able Governor- General has recently been giving a reception to the small chiefs who own the estates on the frontier of the Punjab. They appear to be most amicably dis posed towards the Government, and the language and conduct of Lord ELGIN are well calculated to increase their confidence. The disturbances in Assam are at an end, and the tax which occasioned so much irritation has been modified. This is the OYAL PRINCESS'S THEATRE. 11- Sole I,tissee and Manager, Mr. G.

The Weather—Sun Office, July 17, 1863, more important owing to the numerous tea com panies preparing to start in North-eastern Bengal. W e may hope that this new source of industry being once fully developed the rude inhabitants of this fertile district will be diverted from thoughts of war and rebellion into the more profitable paths of peace and commerce. There can be no question that all these fresh sources of interest and occupation will prove of valuable assistance in the civilisation and Christianising of the Indian population. We have already seen some striking cases in which rude and savage tribes, whose chief amusement, and most profitable occupation, was war, are transformed into peaceable and regular labourers. The greater admixture of Europeans, too, will be beneficial, espe cially as the recent improvements tend to introduce another class of Englishmen into India—men who will not from their position keep so much aloof nor surround themselves with a host of native servants. Overseers, managers, and foremen must be more on a level with the men they employ, where all labour is free, and if these men will but remember their moral responsibility to those below them, as well as Their duty to their masters, their presence will be most beneficial. It will not do for them to look on the native as the American slave-driver does on his unhappy negroes. The Indian overseer must regard his workpeople as men of great natural acuteness and independence. He must avoid wounding their feelings or trenching on their prejudices, though, of course, without giving them encouragement. the Indians are made to feel that truth and justice are the recognised principles of English daily life, as well as the foundation of our laws, a great step would be gained towards their acceptance of ow religion and our views. Can we honestly say that we have hitherto endeavoured to do this ?—that the example which exceeds all precept has taught them to believe in the purity, the charity, the self• denial which our missionaries tell them are indis pensable as There is room for well pensable eleme w nt e s f o e f e o r, u i r e fa th it e h A ? and the time of peace and asprosperit3 it would seem, dawning upon our Eastern now, - w ill, let us hope, enable us to practice that improvement, the H i ndoo , moderation and political wisdom, both of too long neglected by English which have been p E r in iv p a i t r e e' ment towards India. Colonel CRAWLEY appears likely to figure most unpleasantly before the English public when he returns. It now appears that there has been another Mhow Court-martial. This time it was a t c h o a r p t or Colonela whosuffered .cßAw ii E y wa s has r e e e s n p said s responsible very f often rh t t manner in w hi c h t h e imprisonmen t of the sergeant majors was con d ucte d , an d as f or thefact of the sentry being placed inside the apartment, that hat. been also indignantly repudiated by himself and his friends. BLAKE, the corporal, whose charge it was to post the sentry, placed him outside in the fi rs t i nstance, supp os i ng that in that position at the door or the sick room he could maintain sufficient guard over his prisoner. This arrangement would have answered in any case, but, was highly d es i rable, a s not,u n o d n e l y r t Sergeant m L s t i a L n L c E e y s , had to suffer the annoyance, but also his dying wit, was in her l as t d ays harassed by this cruel interfer• ence. This lenity did not suit th the Colonel, w h o resolved that guiltyoeneauete re v o i ef wsuch moderation should p ay the penalty. of May he brought the corporal to On the 6th a court-martial for " disobedience o f or d ers, " and th unfortunate man was sentenced to forty-two dayse' hard labour , and also the loss of his g oo d conduct stripe. S urely this is most extraordinary conduct, and the strang e thing is, that on the 7th of May Colonel CRAWL made a statement to the effect that he was not aware of the sentry having been posted inside the room. This court-martial, however, w as en ti re l y Colonel CRAWLEY'S own affair. It is said that he summoned th© court himself, he selected the mem he fiadini , and sentence, Um, and he epprond t and this was on the sth, while on the 7th of May, ne stated that he was not aware of the position in which the sentry bad been placed. It will not then be possible for him in this instance to adopt the course he has previously done of throwing the blame on the superior officers, as he has throughout made it his practice to do in the case of the unfor tunate Sergeant-Major LILLEY. Another point to be considered is, that although_mANtshrnD eaLpp,roivtadlooefs notthe arrest was given by Sir W. appear to have been proved that he knew accurately about the affair; he may have noted for the best, as he thought, when under erroneous impressions, owing to the misrepresentations that had been m:.de to him. When Sir WILLIAM MANSFIELD approved of the arrest, he thought that it was only to last sew :. ati w asthht o te:en o dri r inanhs t st h ore r rewa e ead e days. regards ilatooryfndgtsahColonel t eithohcewearistiiegnimpri sonment gcopouorurti C RAWLEY lshdooetnrnsmtohteteonhsta ievanweftoughtaebrsneeetiehni sentence, hav e , stated rlboyretasshteteoe: inexorable manner in which it was carried out.

It is ntetnequesttirounly is s sa o i o d that nfine- ment in an Indian casemate at the hottest time of the year." The court-martial on Corporal BLAKE is a very important feature in the case, and it is earnestly to be trusted that full attention will lat paid to it at the trial of Colonel CRAWLEY. It should be minutely investigated, and all the atten dant circumstances well weighed. It certainly com promises Colonel CRAWLEY to a very considerable extent, and throws upon him the onus of the inside sentry, which was a truly disgraceful pro ceeding, and revolting to the feelings of any considerate individual. That any man calling himself a gentleman could have given such an order is hardly to be credited; but having done so, from whatever motive, it does not improve the baseness of his conduct nor lighten the enormity of his cruelty to throw the blame on others. It is even worse still to cast disgrace on a man who was possessed of too much innate good fee ing to carry out with scrupulous exactness the orders that com pelled such inhuman severity. To many minds the effair of Corporal BLAKE will appear nearly as bad as that of Sergeant LILLEY. However, the one follows on the other, and testifies to a spirit of re venge and a cold-blooded cruelty that makes one indignant at their exhibition in the ranks of our army. Such conduct must be put down with a strong hand. It must terminate now and for ever, or our country will be a byword and reproach in those foreign lands where it was once so respected. It is long since such a notorious case as this of Sergeant LILLEY has come before the public, but it is to be feared that many such cases in a minor form have appeared. So much ought not to be left to the discretion of one man. Such vast responsibility is never safe ; and where the indivi dual entrusted with so much power does not recog nise justice, how can he show mercy to those who have offended him ? Also, the higher authorities should not be in such haste always to believe that in a dispute the superior officer must be right, and the inferior one wrong. Of course, discipline is of the utmost importance, but there are things of more consequence still. There are honour, truth, and justice, all of which have been violated in this affair. Sergeant LILLEY being dead, yet speaks to us of his cruel confinement and unjust treatment alto gether. There are other sufferers, also, whose claims must be considered. However or wherever the court-martial is conducted that is held on Colonel CRAWLEY, the English public will not rest satisfied unless the fullest and clearest accounts are given and the most searching investigations instituted. Nor will they patiently brook that on any pretence a men shoat'!" be acquitted who has so injured the fair fame of our army and cast such reproach on his country, whose proudest boast has been that she is ►he refuge of the oppressed and the champion of the wronged. STRAND THEATRE. The success of the 's Duke's Motto" at the Lyceum has induced Mr. Byron to try his hand at a burlesque, and last evening it was produced at this favourite little theatre under the title of " The Motto; I'm all there." Although the French drama does not present great opportunities for such a conversion, yet, it must be confessed, the watt author has made the most of his materials, and his last burlesque is in no way inferior to his former productions. The principal points in the Lyceum drama are all parodied in the most whimsical man• ner. Albeit, the "baby" was somewhat unruly, as instead of going quietly up in a clothes-basket at the termination of the first act, " missie" refused the aerial trip and pitched herself headforemost out of the wickerwork amidst the hearty laughter df the audience. Capt. Lagardere, in the present instance, was sustained by Mr. George Honey, and although a very good performance, it would have been greatly improved had he thrown a little more mellowness into it. Miss Ada Swanborough's Blanche d'Nevers was a perfect success, her bur lesque of the mesmeric situation is the last scene was capital, and elicited the loudest applause. Miss M. Simpson played the Duke Gonzagues with great spirit and effect, whilst kiss Josephs made a most bewitching Zillah. The scenery is really beautiful— a better specimen of painting than the last scene has rarely been witnessed. In it distance is so ar tistically managed that the little stage of the Strand appears twice its actual size. The dresses, as is usual, are splendid, and in the best taste; and, taken as a whole, " The Motto" is perhaps one of the beat burlesques that has yet been done at the Strand. At the fall of the curtain the applause was unani mous. All the leading performers were called for, and the piece was announced for repetition every evening by Mr. Swanborough, amidst the loudest expressions of delight. DEATH OF MR. CALCUTT, M.P. FOR CLARE.—We have to announce the death of Mr. Calcutt, which took place yesterday morning, at his residence, Upper Sey mour-atreet West, after a painful and protracted illness of more than a year's duration. He represented his native county of Clare in Parliament, with only an interval of a few months, since 1857. In 189, Colonel White, M.P. for Kidderminster, was elected in opposition to Mr. Calcutt, but soon after unseated on the ground of bribery. Mr. Calcutt was a consistent Liberal, and never missed an op portunity of giving support to all measures calculated to advance the Liberal interest. H e was a f avour it e in the how., and highly esteemed by all who knew him. He was in the 44th year of his age, and only a few months ago was received into the Catholic church by the Bishop of South wark. ourto ve . n teen OLD LIMOGES ENAMELS.--Se d Pierre Ray.. the enamels of Limoges, by Jean C pieces of mond, the property of a lady in whose fan l i a i ll they had been ma ny years, were yesterday sold by a l u 2 c a t: an plates sold Foster at their Gallery in Pall•mall. lon by Messrs. for £314; 4 round dishes ( 8 inches i n diameter), £l 4O a salver the very lar g e sum of - £4(10. s e fine a set ) and ---"e not been seen at an auction for many years.

(Front Galignant's Messenger.) The Civil Tribunal of the Seine has been several times occupied of late in hearing pleadings in a case in which Madame de Civry, daughter of an Eng lishwoman, is plaintiff, and the Hoke of Brunswick, for many years back residing in Paris, defendant. The action was brought to recover from the Duke, of whom the plaintiff claims to be the natural child, an alimentary allowance of 35,000 fr. a year. The Court yesterday delivered judgment de laring that, by terms of Art. 14 of the Cude Napoleon, a foreigner, even not residing in France, can to summoned before the French tribunals for the execution of obligations by him con tracted towards a native of France; that the claim of Madame de Civry against the Duke of Brunswick is brought for alimentary subsistence; that, although a foreigner when born, she became French by ter marriage with the Count de Civry, and her tight to an alimentary pension has arisen posteriorly to the event which confers on her the quality of a Frenchwoman, since it exists in reality and can be claimed before a court of justice, only from the day when the necessity arose ; that the Court has no occasion to inquire at present into the validity of the demand, but simply to consider the quality of the parties and the object of the appli cation ; looking at all these points, the Court de• Glares itself competent, directs the case to b: pleaded on the merits, and condemns the Duk, of Brunswick to pay the costs, We have reason to believe that it is her Atsjesty't, intention that in the ensuing autumn Prince Alfred shall pees some time in Edinburgh. His Royal Highness will reside in Hclyrood, and will take advantage of the facilities effurded by the residence in that capital of distinguished professors to attend lectures, and by other means to corn plete his education. It is probable that his Royal High ness's stay in Edinburgh may extend to six months.

The balance in the Exchequer on the 30th nit were £6,892,114 2s A HINT FOR COMPETITIVE EXAMINERS—IN REFERENCE TO THE "CREMORNE TOURNAMENT.' Ad Mr. E. T. Smith mentions in his advertisements that he has specially in view the amusement and instruction of "juveniles" by this performance, a Saturday Reviewer suggests that it might be interesting to it quire what an hi telligent boy who had just been reading Ivanhoe thought of the Cremorne tournament, as compared with that of Ashby de-la• Z ouch, GENERAL LEE'S ARMY (now in Pennsylvania) consists of about 130,000 men actually in the field. irrespective of the force left for the defence of Richmond and it is made up of the following corps :—General Ewell, ' 35,000 men; General Longstreet, 42,000; General Hill, 28,000 —making a total of 105,000 infantry, in addition to 12,000 cavalry, under the command of General Stuart, and 3,000 under that of Colonel Jenkins, besides a numerous artillery. Nine hundred converts to Mormonism passed through Detroit on the 3d ult., on their way to the Salt Lake. They were from Germany, and appeared to be intel ligent and well-to-do people. About 150 of the emigrants were men; all the rest were women and children. DEATH OF ONE OF NELSON'S HEROES.—There died lately at Miscoe Island Robert Harper a native o Glasgow, aged 78. He was a sailor under the immortal Nelson, and was on board his ship at the battle of the Nile or Aboukir, and was one of the oarsmen in the boat that landed his lordship on the shores of Egypt after the battle. MEDICAL TRAVELLING CHARGES.—What is a physician entitled to charge for railway fare ? The question is being agitated rather warmly, and a recent dis pute between Dr. Vose, of Liverpool, and Sir Thos. Glad stone, Mr. Robertson Gladstone, and Mr. A. Kelso, is much talked of, as well by medical men and in the select circles its particulars have reached. In July, 1862, a Mr. George Grant was taken ill in the Highlands, and Dr. Vose was summoned by telegraph from Liverpool to Aberdeen. The patient died, and his executors (the three gentlemen I have named) requested Dr. Vose to send in his claim for pro• fesi•ional services. This amounted to two hundred and five guineas. being 186 guinea. for the journey (372 miles), and ,9 guineas for ordinary attendance. The executors consi der this exorbitant, and atter some correspondence, a copy • f which 1 have seen, close their accounts without plying Dr. Vose. The latter has no remedy, except appealing to his professional brethren as to the fairness of his charge. Like barristers, physicians are, by an absurd fiction, sup posed to render their services gratuitously, and tha result is that the question has no chance of being tried in a court of law. But, odd as it may sound to some ears, the faculty have declared that Dr. Vose has rather under than overcharg-d for his journey; and it is broadly stated that, had the late Mr. Grant been a new instead of an old patient, the charge should not have been less than two thirds of a guinea a mile. It is true that the executors quote Professor Miller of Edinburgh, as saying that £25 per diem, and £3O for a day and night, is adequate remu neration for a leading physician's absence from home—but it is said that neither Professor Syme nor Dr. Simpson comply with the " custom" he quotes as that of the northern city. Dr. Lethal)] is also quoted by the execu tors, but repudiates utterly backing up Dr. Vo-e's charges as moderate, as does Dr. Watson; and it would seem that the heir will have to pay the full amount unless he would be convicted of evading a moral responsibility only because it cannot be legally enforced.—lllustrated IVews. In the Sunderland Times of Friday, a correspon dent signing hitnseit ,‘ One of tho 36Th Regiment," writes :—" The Daily Chronicle says, 'lt is stated that General Stuart, of the Confederate cavalry, is no other than Lord Ernest Vane Tempest. This is not true. Lord Ernest Vane Tempest is no - , nor ever was, in the Confederate ser vice, and as Assistant Aajutant-General of Stone's division greatly distinguished himself at the battle of Ball's Bluff, ought 21st October, 1861."

AT WATERLOO.—Of one of these irreparable losses, my fellow-student and worthy comrade, Lord Hay, I must say a few words. The day be fore the battle of Quatre Bras, Bay, who was in love with a young lady, entrusted his secret to me. He said he felt a presentment that he should not escape the first action with the enemy, and giving me a geld chain for the object of his affection, and a sword and sash for myself, we parted. vVe met at my mother's bah on the loth June. I shook him warmly by the hand ; in less than twelve hours he was buried near the spot where he had fallen. Hay was a handsome young man, fond of show and dress, and it was partly attributable to this that he met his death. Mounted on a splendid charger, called Abelard, and decked out in a fancy uniform, he was shot early in the action, by some straggler belonging to the enemy, who evidently took him lei a superior officer. Stray ge to say , his presentment came true in two respects. First, he met an early death; and secondly, as he anticipated, no trace of him or his prop , rty remained. His servant, a most faithful fellow, lost his baggage; and his family, to whom he was endeared by ties, not alone of consanguinity, but of love, did not possess the slightest relic of the departed young hero. I remedied this, as far es lay in my power, by pre senting the sword to Hay's brother, the late Lord Erroll, and his sash to his sister. A few months afterwards, I gave into the hands of a young end beautiful girl the chain that had been entrusted to me, and received her thanks and those 'of her parenis fur having thus faithfully executed be commission of my old comrade.—Lord W. Lennox's Remi niscence*, POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

The box belonged to Iliss Watson, ar td had been brought up into my room, It had been brokt 11 open and only a few letters lett in it. I went down stair s, and a constable was sent for. The trap-dour on the top of the house bad been torced open. A person could get to LI to trap-door from Charlotte-street.

George Kingdon. 144 E—At 10 minutes past 11, on the night of 2d July, I was called to 23, Portland-place, by one of the servants, and on going to the top room round a box broken open lying on the servant's bed.. I searched every room in the house but found no one. I then went on to the roof of the house, and in the gutter 1 found the box produced, broken open, and lying in the gutter.

I then went to 53, Charlotte-street, and on to the roof of the house. On going to the corner of Devonshire -street, No. 57, I fou.nd several slates broken. I found the outer trap door open, but the inner "me fastened. I sent a constable down to open, and then I found in the room, as I had also found on the roof, marks of naked feet, and then made a further search, and found footmarks from No. 62 to the house where the robbery took place in Portland-place. By Mr. I.yrwhitt—l was enabled to trace the footmarks clearly, there having been no rain lately. I traced the foot marks over 32 houses in all. Mrs. Annie Eliza Newman, a widow, residing at 62, Charlotte-street, Portland-place.

He occupied the rooms till the 2d July, when he lett without notice, and owing me four days' rent. By Mr. Tyrwhict--Did any one live in the rooms with him? Witness—No, sir. The last time I saw him he was coming out of the house at 11 at night. He had nothing in his hands, but I can't say whether he had a bulky appear ance or not. A servant at 60, Devonshire-street, Portland-place, a house between 62, Charlotte-street, and 'A, Portland-place, said—On the 26th of June, at night, I saw a man pass the parapet window, stooping down. He was going in the direction of Portland-place. I think the prisoner is the same man. I called out, and asked what he was doing. I picked him out this morning from several others. After I called out to the prisoner Le went back to Charlotte-street again. inspector Williamson, of the detective department, attended to watch the case. Prisoner was committed formally. THE CABMAN AND HIS FARE.—A STRANGE FANCY.— Mr. Charles Harvey, bootmaker, 18, Broau-street, Golden square, but lately living at 16, George-street, Grosvenor square, and who said he was bootinaker to the Prince of . . Wales, was brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt by O'Shaugh nessy, one of the %arrant officers, who took him into custody at two in the morning with some difficulty, the summons served on him having failed to induce him to attend the court., charged with refusing to pay his cab tare of 16s. James Tarrant, a cab-driver, said—On the 30th of June last I took up the defendant in Portland-place and drove aim to Buckingham Palace, Marlborough House, Shep herds-bu-lf, and back to a bootma,er'a in Pall-mall. From Pall-mall 1 drove him to 16, George-street, Grosvenor square, where he stopped some time and brought out a box, wnich he told me to be very careful with, as the contents were very valuable. I said, " The box is very light, and it can't be valuable," and on lifting up the lid I totind the box empty. The defendant then told me to chive to Porto bello-road, near the Royal Oak, where he was going to see his nephew. He then told a man to look after the horse, and wished me to have some refreshment, but did toe pay for it, and told the roan to ci me with us. I then took the defendant to Regent-street and then to Duke. street. He told us to wait, and we waited a long time, and on afterwards going to 16, George-street, being anxious about my fare. I found the defendant upstaif s asleep. On asking for my fare the defendant said, " Oh take a chair, and when my mis treas comes in she will pay you." I told the defendant I wanted 16a. for eight hours' driving, and left. What made it worse was that I had no money with me, it being my first fare. Mr. l'yrwhitt—The defendant must pay the amount, and, as the cabman has been here three finites he will have to pay in a , dition Ils. 6d. The defendant, who appears to have a great fancy fur riding in cabs, and not seuttng with the 'drivers, paid the amount ; and as he was leaving the court he was again taken into custody for not paying a cabman, named Not • tingham, his tare of 7s. 6d. Tais he settled by paying the man 16s. MARYLEBONE. AUDACIOUS CARRIAGE ROBBERY AND DESPERATE ATTACK ON A POLICEMAN.—CharIes Cole, &scribed as a porter, was brought up handcuffed, and placed at the bar charged with the following most audacious robbery, and ruffianly assulting police constable King, 76 D. King deposed that, at b o'clock yesterday afternoon he was in plain clothes in baker-street, "'unman square, when he saw the prisoner put r,is right hand into a carriage which was standing at the corner of Dorset-s• reel, and laying hold of a shawl which was on the seat, pull it out and put it into his pocket. He then ran away, pursued by witness, and he was at length stopped in South-street, Manchester square. On being told that he was charged with sealing a shawl, he said " Yuu are very clever," ana,struck him (wit ness) five or six most severe blows on the nose and temple. tie was at length, after much resistance, conveyed to the station, and when there he exclaimed, "if I could only get at him (King) I'd d--- soon do for him." Mrs. Frances Lyall, wife of George Lyall, Esq,, 60, Eaton-place, Pimlico, identified the shawl produced. It had been thrown away by the prisoner upon finding himself so hotly chased as to convince him that there was no chance of his getting clear away. .n reply to Mr. Mansfield as to whether prisoner was known, King said he was the constant associate of thieves of the worst class hanging about Litson-grove, and he was of opinion that tortner convictions would on another day be proved against him. Prisoner, on being asked if he had anything to say, re plied (..ullenly), " I shan't say anything, for I can see it's uo good." He was committed for trial. THAMES.

He gave the man no provocation whatever. The witness then produced his violin, certainly not a Cremona, and valued it at 20s.
