have no misgivings, however, as to a bold and (car ioca policy being the only one which can avert a 'dreadful criiiis,--411tirttiiig tYironicle." We gave a list yesterday of the individttals echo, up to a late hour of the previous evening, had heel, named for places in the new Administration; W. stated at the same time that the list had not yet: been definitively settled; hut it will be found that with one or two exceptions, all the persons whose names we mentioned will 'hold plaees in the Cobh net. There were six places of which we made no mention, because nothing had been done at that time with regard to them. They were the place , of the President of the Council—the Lord Privy Seal—the President of . the Board of Control—the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster—the Com missioner of Woods and Forests, and the Secretary at War. The list which we inhjoin to-day will' show that those places have been The afi• pointment to the Lord Chancellor'ship was not finally settled until yesterday morning. The only persons spoken of for the high office were Lord Plunkett and Mr. Brougham. The reluctance which the Learned and Hon: Member for Yolk shire evinced to taking office led to the belief that the former Nobleman, whose talents as a Parliamentary speaker would make him an acquisition of no small value to the Ministry in the Ilouse of Lords, would eventually be appointed if he chose to accept the situwion. The reluctance of Mr. Brougham has, however, since been overcome, and it is an d ers t aa a that yesterday forenoon he accepted the Great SSA. The Chancellorship of the Exchequer was again a subject of dismission. We mentioned Mr. C. Grant for that appointment. Lord Althorp and Sir James Graham, both persons who have shown considerable knowledge and capacity in treating financial questions in Parliament, were also named, and the final arrangement took place by the eppeint rnent of Lord Alt harp—the Presidency of the Board of Control being g;ven to Mr. C. Grunt, and the Admiralty, to which Lord Althorp had been previously nominated, being conferred on Sir James Graham. We said yesterday that the Mar quis of Aeglesea would go to Ireland as Lord Lieu tenant, and that Sir Henry Parnell would accom pany burn us Secretary, hut that the Hon. Mr. Stanley had been spoken of for the some place. It is certain that Sir Henry Parnell positively declined the situation, and, in consequence of his refusal, the former gentleman is the new Irish Secretary. We stated that Lord Holland had nor, up to last even ing, accepted any situation, though he had taken pia in the conferences. The state of the Noble Lord's health, who is just recovering from a severe attack of the gout, witch has prevented his atten dance in the Ilouse of Peers sluice the opening of the Session, was understood to be his objectioe. He has since accepted the office of Chaucel;or of the Duchy of Lancaster. nee of the latest Nevi shions to the Ministry is the Duke of Thchmond, es Master-General of the Ordnance. The list now anouls as follows : Firm Lord of the Treasury Earl Gam Chancellor of the Exchequer Viscount Avriloar. Lord Chancellor Mr, HROUGHAH. President of the Council Marqula of I.sasnowNt:.

Mr, STANLEY. :Secretary at War Lord DUNUANNON. • Of the lust appointment we are not quite certain, hut Wa present the list to Our readers, with a conli deuCe 010 it will be found in the main correct, though, as the construction of a Cabinet on a total change of Ministry is u work of some time, and the original plans are generally subject to more than one revision, Borne minor changes might yet occur. It will be seen that, although the Whigs predominate in the present Cabinet, it is not exclusively eom poied of Whig matorials. All the members of it, however, are pledged to a liberal course of domestic policy—to inquiry Into the causes 'of public distress, a nd to non-intervention with the internal affairs of other ca tions. Whether a definite plan of Millie mentary Reform is to be made a Cabieet meromre, or whether cited; member of the Ministry is to lie at liberty to vote on that question as he pleases, is not yet positively ascertained. The state of the countiy requires that the arrangements necessary to the for. motion den effective Government should be com pleted with the least possible delay.—Morn. herald. Whoever sets about the task of improving the administration of justice ie this kingdom, with a v i ew to making it cheaper. and more accessible to the people, must be prepared to grapple with no common diffieulties. 'There is a common saying among lawyers, that " cheap law is bad law;"' but th o ugh it may be had for them, there is no reason svhy it should not be good for their clients. We va nilla undershod why law should be more excellent for tiring a luxury, of which only the rich MO ',fiord in partake; nor do we know what necessary COW 000tion there is between justice and extortion. One of the wise measures of finance of Mr. Pitt's Go vernment was, to increase the cost of law proceed ings by exorbitant stamp duties—ealthough, without forth additional cause of expente to the suitor, law spins extremely dear, and well justified the sarcasm of Herne Tooke, that 41 Courts of Justice in this country were like the London Tavern—open to every person who could pay." The reduction of the stamp duties has still left justice a very costly' thing; and while the prices of all other commodities of English produce and manufacture have fallen, the price of English justice has suffered no depression. What is more, it seems resolved by a great number of those who deal in the commodity to make Com mon cause against any roan who attempts to reduce she price of the article to a level with the reduced resources of the community at large. This Mr. Brougham has discovered in his endeavours to realise a plan for the recovery of small debts Ist little expense and delay, and to introduce some other reforms into the practice of the law in certain eases, with a view to the establish ment of a limited system of cheap and expedi tious justice. It will be recollected that we gave last year an abstract of the Bill of the Hon. and Learned MeMber for the erection of Courts of local jurisdiction, with some comments upon its provi sions. Mr. Brougham proposed aat, even if his Bill should in theory appear deserving the nctiota of the Legislature, yet lie wished It to be tried hot on a small scale at first, that the preetieshility of giving u general application to the priociele 'ei g ht be ascertained by the teat of experiment. Certain members of thetaken profession, however, have alarm at the prospect of Pediment giving Swett rugement to such a dangerous innovation upon ate cient institutiona as a cheap and expeditions erten) of law. Already they see in their alarmed imagi nation the business of the superior Courts tit West militate diminished at least one-half, had, eo n s,. fluently, feel, like the silversmiths of Ephesus that " their craft is in danger." Disinterested, Lehr, in their ze alous advocacy of the existing system of law, as the others were in their support of the esta blished system of+religion, they cry out that the temple of Justice is threatened with as Much dare. ger, from the hands of profane Innovation, es ever befel the temple of the " great goddess Diana." All established systems of imposition, to which the many hive been, in all ages, subjected, for the bene fit of the few, have claimed their rltief title to pre servation, when atthelted, by the weapons of reason, from the length of time during which they have been patently eedured, as if antiquity could conscerato abuse, or make absurdity vetterable. Nothitv can be more excellent than !fumy of the principles of English law..-nothing cat, Imt worse, genera Iv speaking, than'its practice; and it will' be ander- Stood that it is of the practice mily, in the present beta:tet e that we complain plt is to remedy the practice, ilind thereby make justice cheaper mot to f u ," th f in it is i n certain cases, Where the soma to b e recovered, sir the matters ifs thiptite l are ima n value, that Mr. Broaghara's Bill is iateatictl, ,Another ohjt.et tit to prevent litigation in matters o f m i n or importance by n'process of reconcilement.

We do not now enter ince the merits of his have touched on those before, It may possibly admit of some improve• :neat in its details; but those geetlemen, by at-. tempting to r a ke a violent prejudice against thu measure, before it has been submitted to the test of , 4peiitnetit on the smaller seule, have, 'at least, evil ced .their own conviction of its heir.;.! likely t' !ie of 'some pubre advantage ; for they would no: oppose any thing 'Which would have the effect at s. each* the Hpublic good to their own profit.— ,llurninb Herald. it seems Lord Wy n fie d perseveres in his judicio' labours oo the 'Woolsack. Ilis Lords:hip devote, himself exclusively to Scalch Appeals. And whet it is remembered -that he never had any Scotch aracticc at the bar, and that even at his own de pertinent of the mofessiou he was universally col:- suleied us a mere Nisi Prins laavyer ; we know no. whether most to udotire the boldness of the Ministry that could have selected such a Presiding Judge for the Court of last resort, or the marvellous confidence of the individual himself, who,. in the face of mum public warnings, has undertaken, at an advanced period of life, to perform • duties requiring very t o o ions a;ipHestian, gear experience, and, above all, a sober, patient, and solid understanding. • Lord Wytiford hints very freely that he expects a. salary for his Seotti-b services—in addition, be it observed, to the retiring Fusion already driven by him from public: page. .Accordingly (under the in fluence, We suppose, of this laudable motive) his Lordship has commenced his new jtellOal 'labours, with all the furious ardour of a school-boy cot, testing far a prize medal. Some wag has ma. lieiously told that litigants. in the house et .14nrds Want nothing but despatch; and his Lord ship announces that he means to "knock otr" ap peals at the rate of three causes per diem. In our case lately argued in the House of Lords, he actually proposed to deliver Pidgment after hearing only a few sent (owes of the opening speech of en appellant's Counsel. But u Noble lord (Earl Radnor) who bantered to be preset?:, inlet posed, and the case, consequently, wits` permitted to proceed. Lord Wyn'ord is a man of quick parts, undoubtedly; but we can tell. les Lordship, that mere celerity of decision is not, nor ever will be, the mini bute of an intelligent or conscientious Judge. The very appearance of the least anxiety to get rid of a case on some short point, or clever fancy, of supposed discovery, is peculiarly indecorous itt Judge administering a system to which he must bc a stringer, and itt a tribunal where any errors com mitted are errors beyond all hope or possibility of correction. We have made these remurks, because we trust that one of the first measures of the new Government will lw to place the Supreme Appellate Jurisdiction on a footing itt once efficient and satis factory. The dispose'. of judicial business in the Howse of Lords, since the time of Lord Gifford, has excited universal discontent in ScotiantL—Morning Chronicle. Whatever may turn out to be the composition of the new Cabinet, it must be quite evident to every one who has either examined the list of the division on Sir 11. Parnell'eomution, or who bus duly contd. tiered, and reflected on, the spirit which is non abroad among all classes, that the party which has been driven from the helm of affairs, has not only effectually lost all credit with the public, but that it has been driven from it not to return to it await. — That divisior not only exhibited a numerics' majo rity of the 437 Members, then in the Ilotese over m the feeble partisans of the Governent,but a host of deserters from the falling standard of the latter, and such a corps of reserve in the number of absentees as, if brought up, must have turned the scales still more against the Government. No fewer than 47 of the English county Members voted against the Mi nistry; l 5 only, including the Members directly eon. netted with the Government, in favour of it ; while, of the twenty who happened to be absent, it is quite evident, from an inspection of the list, that the mu jority would have ranged themselves on the side of Sir H. Parnell. In the same way a majority of the Irish county Members did honour to their mis sion and their country, by ranging themselves on the side of economy ;-- - twenty-nine having voted against Ministers—only , eleven for them, and of the twenty four absent, fifteen, it is reckoned, would have sided with the fernier. The only support ftom the county Members of the empire which Ministers received was from the representatives of the rotten shires of Scotland, whose names, we regret to add, along with the rept esentatives of the Scotch boroughs, are but too frequently to be found in the lists of every division on the side of jobbing profusion and despotic measures. Twenty-nine of the Scotch Members voted in favour of the Chancellor of the Exchequer's motion—only seven ugainst them, an d o f the nine who were abient there were only three, we think, on whose support the cause of economy could have f a irly reckoned.— It would be . a libel, however, on the people of Semiarid to say that they participate in the se ntiments of their nominal representatives ; for they are us independent in spirit and principle el the latter are elevish nod dependent, and we have rio doubt that, in the course of a few weeks, the tables of both 'louses of Parliament will groan under the load of petitions for Parliamentary Reform, which will come from our brethren in the North. The truth is, that Scotland has no national repre sentation, and that reform is more ithmlutely re (piked there than either in - England or Ireland. We ment i on these circumstances because they shew, beyond all coptrudiation, that there was no trick— no stratagem i s -no unfair advantage taken----in effect nig the defeat of the Ministry ; hut that it wits the expression of the opinion of the country, twine! upon its representatives, and compelling them to e ffect the overthrow of un Administration hich had contrived to draw upon itself more of contempt and indignation, than any Administration which has exists(' since the clays of the North and Fox The vote on the Civil List was, in fact, a plain deelatatioto that no Ministry will be allowed to hold the teiss ni Government, after it has con trived, by its hostility to mattl meesures, to put in danger the tranquillity of the country ; and that this tranquillity would have been hextrded, had the Duke at Wellington and his colleagues remained much longer in power, must now be evident to every one who eonsidere, and reflects maturely on, the spirit which is abroad in the country---a spirit which is not only St ITIIAIy in favour ONCOH9nIy and retrench. incur, and of a fele to of the repreeeetation—but of a reform of nil tl a uliusts in the Stive ' end cat all changes, which have for their end the advance ment Of . the comfort and wealth of the people, and the promotion of popular tights, as coetradistin probated frinn aristocratic monopoly. This spirit the Duke of Wellington and his colleagues cannot . understand, and could not comprehend—they pro ' eeeded in their Course, as if the pat h. which they trod bad been the same beaten track on which their predecessors matched with so little norm,- tioe, and with so few obstacles, until they were on the brink of an unforeseen precipice, from which • return was hopeless, and udvetice, us it has proved, inevitable destruction. hence, us they may now eXchtirp Frnstra niederi pliormacis volgaribus Conare nostro coiner', sanaldlis A r c gaga non est ; 'Winds vitalibus Insedit, alto in viers penrtrans viscera Eoque Indus .at arerbiar meus, Claud culpa tioninunt, ndseria errortm gravoi,-- (Morning Advertiser.) The difficulties under Which we have stited DO Grey to labour in his fearful tusk of fottnitiF a new l!itii4try, are must fully shewn by the pitialge result, lii4 Lordship, it is char, found it impossible to form anything like a respectable or efficient Ad imillia rl Ilan, anti wits therefore induc e d to h ave reco"ra° t° the ordinary expedients of th e p art y, of whit Ile is so worthily the bead, to aceomplish big desired pm pose. Whigs, it is well known, are never over scrupulous when the allurements of place are 'pre-' sewed to their consideration, and` Lord Grey, well nformed in this respect, saw at once in the actuat ing motives of Whiggism, the ready means of relief from his enibarrassmtnts. Accordingly his Lordship letermined upon overcoming all obstacles, by naming Quell men as he knew from long experience would ac cept official situation on any terms, and almost fumy say pas ty. The consequence is, that the new Prern;et has , :uhmitted to the degrading necessity of filling op the various offices in a manner which not even the difficulties we early foresaw would hove in !lured us to deem possible under any circ►imstances. Of those who are called to the highest situations, he greater portion could scarcely have In selected , with less regard to their respective qualifications foi the duties they are about to undertake ' whilst on tht other hand we see the best talent of the party sunk old lost in the most subordinate departments of the • Government.

General, anti Mr. Soigeant Wit.on Solicitor. General. The difficulties sttendant upon the foimation of the new Ministry twill; been thus hopefully sur mounted, those, of a more formidable nature, which must obstruct its progress, become the next cor •iderution. Parliamentary Reform, the state of the Currency, and the protection to be afforded to British Agriculture, are the subjects which most prominently present themselves, •Lord Grey, to begin with the question which trap tends every other in importance, is pledged, not by the thought less expressions merely of ardent and inconsiderate youth, not by the uniform tettour merely of his lan guage and conduct throughout his political life, but by a solemn declaration in Parliament, which is yet scarcely a weelc old, to employ whatever power he may possess to effect some change or other in the constitution of the House of Commons. From this he cannot swerve without forfeiting his reputation as a man and his popularity as a Minister. He being• Premier, something► to begin . with in the career of Parliamentary Re form must be proposed and supported by the whole influence of Government, or the Administra• tion will at once become an object of scorn and dis gust to the country—a jest and bj-Nord of every party—a monument of stupendous and revolting insincerity. This prominent and essential feature of the political character of the Noble Lord repels from him, of coarse, all those alto inherit the prin ciples of the late Mr. Canning, all whose principles are opposed to the rommencerrient of an •innovation Of which they cannot foresee the end, all who dislike the animal, not cn account cf its size but its species. In the second place, Lord Grey is, or at least during the last. Scssson of Parliament he loudly declared that he was, prepared to re-open the ques tion of the Currency. This disposition he shares in common with many of the persons whose principles and interests must absolutely compel them to oppose a reforming Minister, and with very few persons indeed to whom a reforming Minister can be accept able. Mr. Attwond, the Banker, and the leader-of the Birmingham Union, wo believe, the single Statesman of any mink or likelihood in all England whose opinions on the two questions of.fteform and Currency coincide with those of the Noble Lord; and it is indeed rather surprising, considering the great number and variety of projects ' intended to assist his Lordship in the construction of his Admi nistration, that the name of this very re , pec.able gen tleman should have been so entirely overlooked. - Then on the equ My important question of the foreign corn trade, the Noble Peer tr, as becomes him, a resolute and determined prwector of British agriculture. In the judgment of LC:ord Grey, an e (wive legislative check to the importation of fos reign grain is essential to the .welfare of the country and to the interests of his order, and he is " deter mined to stand or fall with the order to which he belongs." The sentiment is no doubt honourable in the highest degree to the Noble Lord's judgment and patriotisin; but, unfortunately for Jim, the. host of Liberals, whose efforts contributed so powerfully to open to him the road - to dice, and upon, whose aid and support in dice his reforming principles and pledges leave.him in a great degree dependent, hold this language of his, and the policy to which it re fers, and the whole class of aristocratic feelings Which it prt - claims, in utter contempt and detests. tion, We have here given but tsfeeble and imperfect sketch of the &trinities by which Lord Grey must be beset on the very threshold of his labours. Bow much of reform the Administration of Lord Grey can agree to repose this year is the first question for them to ask themselves, and here they will'find how difficult it is to be. unanimous. But this (lift • eulty is.. nothing in comparison with those which follow. The question is progressive, and are they to be progressive too. if they. perform so much in the course of this Session of Parliament, how much are they to concede to the loud demands of the real and substantial Reformers in the next Session, and the next, and the next ? There can be no end to the internal emturrassnients, no cessation to the intestine strife, of an Administration which sets out upon the principle of Reform. Then the Church ? How is any Administration which Lord Grey can he expected to form, to dispose of its friends in Pailiament, or to do without them, who are determined to invade the rights and pro perty of the. Church ? Lord Grey is, no doubt, deter Mined to resist any such invasion. This, as he is a shrewd and sensible man, is a nece.sary C9/1. sequence of his attachment to " the order to which •he belongs." But let him count upon his fingers— the lingers of one hand will be mote than enough— the number of S‘atesmen who will zealously concur with him in his project of Parliammury, Reform, and agfin zealously concur with him in resisting the spoliation of the Church. No man can look at the slate of parties in England at this moment, and re gard the consequences it seems likely to produce, without being convinced that those eminent nun who have heretofore been honoured by the title of the conservative party, have, in their foolish, obsti nate, and criminal resentment, sown the seeds of a bitter harvest of regret for tilen"elves— o f confu sion and calam ity for their country. M a y the pre sent awful aspect of Asks recall them to reason, justice, and patriotism I May the dark menace which hangs over their country and themselves, and which they have madly invoked, operat e a s a salutary %veining, and induce theM, if there be yet time, todeprecateand avert the infliction 1....A/mug Pori.

While the LORD MAYOR was engaged in the routine business of the Justice-room, in walked the beadle of his Lordship's ward, bearing on his shoulder a long pole, on which was a placaid repr►- ienting the heads of two asses. The beadle ad vanced to the bar, and with a very grave face, said lie had taken the pole and the likenesses of the asses from a man who had the rudeness to go into his Lo dship's ward to dispose of such improper com modities to the residents and the passers-by. Under the impres•ion that such a mode of proceeding was extremely improper, be had stripped the bearer not only of his show.ho-tril, but of a numb, r of oh. noxious verses which he had been singing about in no very musical tones. 'Tic LORD MAYOR, who. burst, into u laugh the moment he saw the picture alluded 0, and his own beadle bending under ihe weight of the board, *aid he did not see why the placard bearer should have been deprived of his good.; upon such frivolous grounds. If he bad been permitted to go on with his trade tunuoleated, he would probably have sold o tt his ktork in a short time. • The officer thought it very unfeeling in any man to go about in that kind of a way. The people were a ll g r in n ing at the swop, which attacked the whole Court of Aldermen, and ought to be put down. He then produced a copy of NT:lieS which had bern taken from the placard bearer. The following he emhidered a most audacious insult to, the tipper and lower houses of the Corporation Now pale is the pint of each Ilalderman's nose, " And sad must the souls of the Citizens be, " Since summut Is wrong, as the locksmiths suppose ' " When the wards is no loner on terms with the Key. " Poor Galloway growls, Charley Pearson he pout s , " And Figgins and Wiggins, and Scrogpis is queer, " For Nowember to them, without guzzlemg bouts, " Might as well he wiped affirm the months of the year. " And I'm Wowed if t'sult nuts now to witness the gloom " Of the fellow wet axed bitch a price for his room " In Cheapside, anol now prays fora conwicted doom " On the head of the Waterloo Coachman." Thu LORD MAYOR considered that it was well the people bad some amusement at this cull period of the year, and he had no objection to be made one of the sources of the general mirth, but he be lieved that he ought not to stand alone in the business —(Laughter.) it was here mentioned, that this picture repre sented two objects, and of course snore persons were moult than one. ills LounswP said, the man who was driving the trade, had hawked about his poetry in other wards without being interrupted ; unti he WV no reason why the song should not sell in Langbourne as well as elsewhere, he %souk, not throw any obstacle in his way. The beadle was then directed to give up the poetical effusions to the placard bearer, but he was complimented for his zeal in supporting the dignity of the Cor poration. Some lime afEerwards the placard bearer came to the Justice-room, and in a very shy manner requested that his Lordship would be so good as to order him his board back again. As for the " pictre," he knowed nothing at all about it, but if it wa'ot liked by his Lordship„ why he'd shove it off the board. The LORD . MAvou, with a great deal of good 'humour and vod sense, advised the plaeard-beurer nut to take away the effigy, but to keep it safe, as it might answer very well for some future mayoralty. Mr. Ilobler told the phicard-bearer that he must take care not to obstruct the King's highway by colltettng crowds, for if he did he would be subject to a penalty.-•--The man replied, that wherever he appeared with his goods he was sore to have a crowd after him, for the people would not listen to nothing eke, burring a song, the burden of which was-- " You think you've an linter, but may I go to grass, ' 4 . /krultm rode for a Nuttier, if you ha'ptgot a Ilan." Thepl:leard-bearer theit d4urted ;ith his whole stoek•in-trade. We were told that Sir C. S. Hunter, while the case was undercx:unination, walked into the hull of the Mansion-house, and was about to enter the justice-room, when he saw the " pictre" at the top of the pole, upon which he suddenly turned into the opposite room. BOW-STREET. A young man, named Cartwright, was yesterday charged before Mr. MiNsuum with having feloni ously embezzled bank notes and Rh, umountilig to 2251., being money which came into his possession us a sorter of letters in the General Post-office. Mr. William Stanfield was in the employment of Mews. Turner and Yeomans, merchants of Shef field, for whom he acted as clerk and traveller. On the 19th of October last, he had occasion to remit five bills of exchange amounting to 175/., and ten Bank of England notes, for 51• each, to his em• ployers et Sheffield. %Witness sealed up the packet, and put it into the post•office at Chert-ey, with a request that an ucknosrledgment might be forwarded to him at Aylesbury, to which place he was then proceeding. The packet should have reached Shef field on the 21st of October, but witness received no enowtr from his employers until the 27th, when a letter reached him at Welligborough, stating that the packet had not come to hand. Mr. Peacock, solicitor to the General Postsoffice, hero produced ten ..5/. Bank of England notes which had been paid into that establishment on the 20th tif October, and the teitncts immediately identified them as the same mites which he had enclosed and forwarded to his employers. Mr. Charles James Beetson was a clerk in the Bank of England. On the 20th of October laSt young man, whom witness believed to be the pri. soner, presented to him at the Bank of England ten 54 notes to be changed. Witness told him to put h i s mime and address on the back of the notes, and t h e prisoner 'stepped to the hall, and returned with the notes, endorsed " Edward Winston, Wilton terrace." Witness asked hint where Wilton-terrace w as, and. the prisoner replied it was at Knights. bridge, end witness wrote the word on the Bank ' note now produced, numbered 11,112. Witness then paid the prisoner 50 sovereigns, and witness remarked at the time that the prisoner picked them up without coenting them, and on going out, he turned round end looked at witness in a manner that created some suspicion, but witness did not c ommunicate such suspicion to the clerk who sat next to him. Mr. MlNsttuLt, asked the witness if he was quite positive that the prisoner was the person for whom he changed the notes ?—The witness believed him to be the man, but could not swear more positively to him. Two of the Bank-notes now produced, witness would swear to es pert of those which he bad changed on the day in question. 'Witness did n ot see the► prisoner after, until he was sent for a reAV dvm ago to the Post•oldice, and in an apartment belonging to Mr. Stowe, witness saw and recognized the prisoner us the person who had prtseuted the notes for payment. Mr. Wilkins, a professional gentleman on behalf o f t h e prisoner, put several questions to the last wit ness EIS to his po,itive belief that the prisoner was the party for whom he el►nngerl the notes. The witness admitted that the interview between him elf and the piiscner did not last bmger than two minutes, and that he was in the habit. of teeing be tween 300 and 400 persons daily at the Bank. He was sent for to the Pnst•oflice, in order to see if he could identify the prisoner; and the moment he en tered the roomolthough different persons had pressed in and out, he said he believed he w►►s the man. Mr. Peacock here said it vas but fair to state, that as soon as the prisoner entered the room a re mark Was made, " This is not eleven o'clock," that being the hour mentioned to the witness when he would see the prisoner. On the part of the prisoner, Mrs. Mary Grabham was called forward, who stated that she lived in Crown -court, Threadneedle-street. The prisoner lodged at her house from the Bth of October to the 12th of November, and during the whole of that time he dined from home but once, and that was on Monday the 18th of October. He always went out at about a quarter to six in the morning, and returned to breakfast about nine, when he invariably went up to his Ipttl room, and remained there until about four o'clock, at which hour he usually dined. On the 20th of October she was quite sure that the prisoner was at home from nine until four o'clock. Had he left home in the interval, she must have heard him go out, as there was u bell to a door ou the landing near his bed-room, which she must have heard ►ing had he left his apartment before his usual hour. r. MINSAULL asked Mr. Peacock if he meant to summon the witnesses from Sheffield to prove that the letter, enclosing the remittance, had not reached that place. Mr. Peacock at present did not cons'der it necessary to do so, The fact of the notes having been presented et the Bank the day after they were put into the post-office at Chertsey was sufficient to establish that fact, Fhe prisoner was then with the consent of his legal adviser, fully committed for trial upon the above evidence, and the witnesses were bound over to prosecute. FATAL ACCIDENT. (From the Leeds InteMgencer.) On lorally afternoon a shocking accident oe cured at Stone-bridge Mill, near Fernley, in the oc cupation of Mem , . Pawson and Sots, cloth-manu facturers, by the bursting of the engine -boiler. Nine of the workmen employed on the premises were scalded and otherwise injured, in.d they were imme diately carried to the Infirmary. Their names were, Wm. Starkey, 623, Wortley ; Frederick Barnsby, 18, Birstall ;. James elephant, 16, Fernley; Jame:;• Fletcher, 63, Fernley ; Joseph Galloway, 17, Wort ley ; Martin Bretheriek, 18,Bremley ; Edwin Sow den, 15, New Wortley ;. James Saville, 58, Wort ley; and Joseph Seville (his son), 13, Wortley. Frederick Banish), died at the Infirmary on Tues day forenoon, and William Starkey yesterday morn ing. Yesterday evening an inquest was held at th e Griffin Inn, to inquire into the cause of the deat:rs of the two unfortunate men, when the following evidence was taken : Richard Gill—l am fireman to Messrs. Pawson, woollen-manufacturers, at S:one-bridge Mill, in the township of Wortley, and I attend to the engine at that mill. On Monday last, about twenty minutes past four o'clock in the afternoon, I came out of the fire-place, having been in to open the fire-doors. The engine had been standing about six minutes, awl we were just going to set on. We had stopped it because we could not keep the steam up, as we had very poor coals. The moment I had got to the engine -house door, it blew up suddenly with a loud noise. h blew up the flues round stout, and the steam-chest ut the top of the boiler was broken. I was about six or seven yards from the boiler, and was not hurt. I went towards the boiler several times, and was beat back again by the violence of the steam end water. As aeon as I could get to it, I found that 'nine workmen at the mill were scalded or otherwise injured. ,The boiler was in the dry house. Only one of the men, James Fletch e r, had been i n t h e habit of working in the dry house; all the other men (but one, who was a cloth miller) were &tiers, and when the engine stopped they %sent into the dry-house to warm themselves. I had seen the cloth-miller just before it happened. He was on the engine -house steps when I last saw him. I hail not seen the two deceased men. They were both giggers. I have not been able to satisfy myself as to the cause of the bursting of the bOder. We were then two inches and a half below the standard which we generally wrought at. The boiler, in my opinion, does not appear to have been a very good one. The [louse-Surgeon of the Leeds Infirmary gave his opinion that the deceased had died from inhaling the steam. All the men were severely injured; and one of them, James Saville, he feared, could not survive the night. After consulting together for a few moments. the Jury found a verdict of " Accidental Death, with a deodand of Is. upon the boiler." M it. Sr. JOIIN LoNO.-o.nThursday last Mr. WoNTNES, the Governor of Newgate, received a note from Mr. ST. JOHN LONG, requesting that gentleman to inform if, in the event of his surrendering himself to take his trial on the charge of manslaughter, at present pending against him, he coul , l aft,rded the same accommoda tions in that prison which he had met with during his former temporary Ilitay there. Mr. WONTAIZR, is reply, informed him that he could nuke nn promise or pledge on the subject ; and that if he required more than the ordinary accommodation, he mast make his application to the LOAD MAVOIt, who alone could grant it. Nothing further has since been heard from Mr. LONG. Yesterday, at Union-Had, a man named CuartLES LANCOON was brought before Mr. Holes, on a charge of excessive ill-treatment to a child of his own, a boy of eight years of age, whose life is considered in danger. sirs. 3IAILY Wirran stated, that the defendant said that the child could not live much longer, and that several medical men bad visited, it, Who pronounced that it was incurable, awl be was determined not to spend any more money, as it hail already coat hint too much. Witness went to the hoes) of the defendant, and she was shown up stairs to a back room, the stench proceeding front which on her entrance was dreadful. Tl►e child was huddled up under a piece of old carpetting,, and a piece of the same article served for its lied ; the window of the room was wide open, and the child exposed to the cold air. When wit uess went into the room, the child shrieked out in agony, and she then discovered tl.at the pain arose in con sequence of the removal of the carpet, severe! parts of Which adhered to various ulcers and running saes on its body.—Mr. Damian') Bowe, the parish surgeon of Newington, lent to the defendant's house. He found the child's body covered with large ulcers, one in l►articuler was perceptible on its left side, and the thi g h Bone protruding, awl quite bate of flesh. There was no doubt the unfortunate child had fallen into that condition from want and gross inattention. The Wools upon its body had no dressing upon then), and front the want of cleanliness, maggots and other vermin w, re crawling over ha flesh. lie (00 ., t i enta l i', and although it was scarcely ,tole to steak front exhaustion, it craved for something to quench it thirst, and be administered a little weak wine and ►rater, which appeared to revive it. Mr. Donor added, that he had sines ascertained that the child had been that situation for the last five mouths. Finding that the child was in danger, he had it i►nmediately conveyed to the hospital. Mr. Hong remanded the defendant until the child was declared. out of danger. RIVER of AMAZONS, EXPLORED BY PINZON.—The Spanish navigator Pismo"( steered north wards slung the coast front Cape St. Augustin, and ex plored with wonder the mouths of the Maragnon, or river of Amazons, which pours down through numerous mouths, such en immense hotly of water, as to freshen the sea to the distance of many leagues from land. From the size of this great stream, PINION justly inferred the vast mag nitude of the continent front which it fltnee. The islands near the shore were inhabited by a simple and harmleas. people, who generously shared with their strange visitors every thing they possessed. In return for this kindness and hospitality, a number of them were treacherously seized by the Spaniards, and carried off captive. p r o_ ceeding along the shore, Prez()); passed through the strait called the Dragon's Mouth, and steered for Hispaniola. Leaving this, he encountered a dreadful storm, which sunk two of his vessels, and reached.PaloS in the end of Sep people having perished, and the re. out with fatigue.--Dr. Lardafr's I t en err agi l ib b ui e dn r ee . rt in b in ne y t o p f weo k e l in s a • MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
