Ettrbi Mbition SUN OFFICE, Seven o' Clock, THE NEW MINISTRY. Lord JOHN RUSSELL has arrived in town. Lord PALMERSTON has arrived, and several other members of Lord MELBOURNE'S Ministry were also expected in the course of the day, to consult with his Lordship relative to the new Administration. Lord JOHN RUSSELL has been actively engaged, since his arrival in town this afternoon, in the arrangements which the formation of his Ministry render necessary. Lord COTTENRAM had an interview with Lord JOHN RUSSELL shortly after he arrived. Sir D EMS LE MARCHANT, Secretary to the,Treasury when the MELBOURNE Administration went out of office, has been in constant communication with Lord JOHN this afternoon. He is acting as confidential amanuensis to the new Premier. The opinion gains ground that no dissolution w : take place until Lord JOHN finds obstruction to his measures in the Commons, in which case an imme diate dissolution will follow. The QUEEN returns to Windsor to-morrow, as we announced yesterday. Brookes' and the Reform Club are all alive, and the mustering of Liberal Members in London is al ready great, whilst the Carlton and Conservative Clubs, are gloomy, and all parties of Tories grumbling at each other. EXCHEQUER.—(THIS DAY.) (Sittings at Nisi Prins, in London, before the LORD CHIEF BARON and Common Juries.) CHANCELLOR V SA.MBROOK. This was an action on the case for injuries done to a valuable horse, to which the defendant had pleaded not guilty. Mr. Knowles and Mr. James appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Humfrey and Mr. Woolrych for the de fendant. The plaintiff was the well-known" proprietor of the omnibuses running between Brompton and the City, and the defendant, a coal merchant, carrying on business at the Arundel Wharf, Arundel-street. The transaction which gave rise to the present action occurred on the 24th of April last. About two o'clock on that day, one of the plaintiff's omnibuses was travelling from the City towards the West-end, and met with no interruption or accident till it came to St. Clement's Church, in the Strand, when the driver, observing that a waggon was coming up Arundel-street, and intending to proceed in a contrary direction, drew up close to the pavement immediately opposite the Crown and Anchor in the Strand, to give the waggon ample room to pass. The waggon, how ever, which was afterwards found to be the property of the defendant, turned so sharply round the corner of Arundel.etreet and the Strand, that the wheels grazed the lamp-post, then ran against the pole of the omnibus, and finally passed ever the hoof of the off horse draw ing the omnibus, inflicting injuries that ultimately re sulted in the death of the animal. It was to recover damages for the loss the plaintiff had sustained by this accident that the present action was brought. Evidence having been adduced to prove these facts, Mr. Humrazy addressed the jury for the defendant, and afterw'ards called a number of witnesses to prove that the accident would not have happened had the driver of the omnibus exercised due and ordinary caution in the conduct of his vehicle and horses. The jury found a verdict for the defendant, on the ground that the occurrence was an unavoidable accident. BANK OF ENGLAND. (From this Night's Gazette.)

Scoart.— fo-day there was no public sale of any descrip tion of Raw Sugar, and the quantity declared is unimportant, still the market for all home trade descriptions is in a very dull state, and prices are on the decline. Although W sit India Muscovadoes was offered upon lower term 4, still all descriptions were purchased with caution, only 470 hlids and tierces being actually sold, making the total sale.; for the week only 1,270 hhds and tierces, and the fall in prices for that time is 6d to 2s Gd per ewt. This after roan a parcel of middling bright Grocery Demerara was die pesed of at 47s per cwt. Iti.:Fisr:D.—To- day Refined Goods were purchased with caution by the home trade, brown grocery lumps at 63s to 62s 6d, and Standard lumps at 64s to 65a per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar is neglected, and prices have become nominal. MAcurrius.—None has been offered at public sale, but a parcel will be declared shortly, a cargo of 4,500 bags, &e., of the new crop having arrived. There has been little inclina tion manifested by grocers or refiners to operate privately, and the few parcels disposed of were upon lower terms. The importation in the ensuing year is likely to be even much larger than in the present one and the quality superior. The quantity remaining unsold of the old crop is trifling. Eau INDIA.—The arrivals of Bengal this week having been large, amounting to 12,279 bags, have caused merchants to be desirous to realise, and they submitted to a reduction on previous rates of 13 for brown, Is to Is 6d for white, and 2s to 3s per cwt fur yellow, Mauritius kind, of which the supply has principally consisted. Notwithstanding the de cline the trade have been cautious in their proceedings, and there has been little business transacted. FOREIGN.—There are few' purchasers of Brazil, although there ar3 sellers at a further decline in prices of is per cwt. Although yellow llavatmah is obtainable upon lower terms, still the business transacted has been trifling by private treaty. White is still neglected. Other kinds have met with little attention. CoFrEE.—This afternoon the first parcel of Berbice of the new crop amounting to 86 casks 7 puncheons 12 barrels and 8 bees was submitted to public competition ; the principal part consi,ted of low middling descriptions, it was in appear ance inferior to the quality of last year, but it being unclean was not esteemed by the trade, still it was held firmly, and the chief part was taken in above the value. TEA.—Congou is offered upon easier terms, still the trade have purchased with caution. Pouchoug has been purchased with caution, and prices are going down. For Souchong the demand has been only for small parcels, for which easier rates are taken. Twankay is heavy of disposal. Holders of Hyson generally are not inclined to further reduce their prices; at present the trade are not much inclined to operate. Young Ilyson has been p urc h ase d t o a f a i r extent at former quotations. Cons.—The change in the Ministry, and uncertainty as to what may ultimately be done with the corn-laws, have com pletely paralysed the trade in Wheat, and scarcely a trans action having taken place, prices must be considered nomi nally the same as on Monday last. parley, B eans, and P eas, were little inquired for, and decidedly easier to buy. Oats were 6d to is per quarter lower than in the beginning of the week. In other articles there was nothing doing. SPICES.—To- day Malabar Pepper met with little attention At publie sale 2,078 bags were only in part sold at rather lower rates, good heavy clean but rather stalk): went at 3 1 0 to 3Mcl, half heavy 3/td to 34 , t, good light to 2%d, , sea chinned first class 2.30 :o 3%d, second 2 to 3d, third 14;:t to 2740. Two chests of Mace fetched . 2s 6d for fair wormy. Four cases of Nutmegs a , ,Id, good limed at 3s Gd, good bold brown 5s sd, slightly mouldy 4s 4d to 4a 7d.

SPIRITS.—The market has been in a dull state for Leeward Island Rum this week : holders have been more inclined to realize, and submitted to the reduced rates of 2s to 2s Id per gallon proof strength. Calcutta has met with little at tention, and prices have fallen to 2s to 2s op proof with certificate. In the value of Jamaica little variation has occurred, but exporters and the home trade have purchased with caution. ' Demerara of strong gut-. lity is held for the former value, but only small parcels have been disposed of at 3s to 3s 6d, low sorts are dull of sale, and cony be purchased on easier terms. The areivals of Rum are to a small extent only since this day week ; whereas the home and export deliveries have been Aged. The letters co me to hand from France state that the quantity of Brandy made would be nearly one-half less than last year, prices have advanced, and at Cognac they rule as follows for the best bands : 1845, 87f 50c per hectolitre ; 1844, 95 ditto ; 1842, 105 ditto; 1841 115 ditto, and 1840 125 ditto.

GENERAL COURT-MARTIAL AT CHATHAM. Dzc. 11.---On the 10th inst. a general court-martial was held in the general court-martial room, Chatham Barracks, which continued to this day, for the trial of Private John Stoker, No. 1,926, of the 65th Regiment, stationed at Brompton barracks. The prisoner, it ap pears, was placed under arrest on the 18th September last, at Sheerness, whilst then with a detachment doing duty at that garrison, and was brought to Chatham on the day following, when he confessed himself to have been a participator in the crime of murdering a woman at a place called Stone, in Staffordshire, about nine miles from Newcastle, in the year 1841, and his accomplice, named Forbes, was exe cuted for the murder; the prisoner observing that he held the head of the murdered woman whilst the other cut her throat, and that they afterwards robbed her, and then he enlisted as a soldier. The prisoner's confession of so foul an act was forwarded to the Horse Guards, and has also been submitted to the Secretary of State, and every communication has been made between the au thorities of that town and the Home-office, and it is believed to have been proved that the murder of a wo man did take place at the place and time stated by the prisoner, and that a man of the name of Forbes was hung, and the correspondence which has passed between the several authorities has been submitted to the twelve judges, which accounts for the prisoner being so long confined prior to a court-martial being held on him. The Conrt comprised two majors, eight captains, and four lieutenants. Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas E. Kelly, of the Provisional Battalion, president, and Lieutenant- Colonel G. Fifer, deputy judge-advocate. The charges against the prisoner were-1. That, on the 18th of September, 1845, the prisoner, being a sen tinel on duty at the Dockyard at Sheerness, was found there and then sleeping on his post. 2. With having, at Chatham Barracks, on the 22d of September, 1845, offered violence to Sergeant Conlin, 28th Regiment, being then and there in the execution of his duty ; and 3, for using threatening language that he would take his life, or words to that effect. To which charges the prisoner pleaded Not Guilty. Lieutenant Scott, 92d Highlanders, formerly 65th, said he was stationed at Sheerness, with a detachment, in the month of September last, and on the 18th of that month he was on guard with the prisoner at Sheer ness dock-yard; and on going the rounds to the different posts with Corporal Willis, between one and two in the morning, they found the prisoner asleep at his post, and lying on the ground; his musket was about one yard from him. The prisoner was removed to the barracks. The officer's evidence was corroborated by Corporal Willis, who posted the pri s o ner on N o . 9 p ost d ur i ng t h e day, Where he was found. Sergeant Michael Conlin, of the 28th Regiment of Foot, said be was the provost-sergeant, and had the cus tody of the prisoner ; that on the morning of the 22d of September last, by order of the brigade-major, he re moved the prisoner from the lock-up to a cell belonging to the main-guard, fur which purpose he procured au escort. The prisoner, on entering the passage leading to the cell, struck at him, and declared he would have his life by drawing his blood the first opportunity he bad. The sergeant's evidence was corroborated by the two escorts who accompanied him, and proved the conduct of the prisoner towards the sergeant, to whom he said he would take his life, and make his blood run cold from him, as he, the prisoner, knew what was going to be done with him. The prisoner denied that he was asleep on his post, and did not use the language until the sergeant had torn his jacket from his back, and hoped the Court would con sider the time he had been in prison. The adjutant of the 65th was called to character, which was bad. The prisoner had already been tried four times by court.martial. He has been three years in the regiment, and is twenty years of age. He is a native of Staffordshire. The Court's decision will not be known until confirmed by the Horse Guards. MANCHESTER and MERSEY SHIP RAILWAY. This subject is beginning to excite the attention it deserves, and is now a common topic of conversation ; not, as before, merely to be regarded as an idle theo retical phantasy, but as a serious and real proposal of great promise and interest to the town of Manchester. It has been well and truly said that any improvement which will enable ships of four or five hundred tons to discharge their cargoes in a dock in this town, would form an epoch of such magnitude in the history of Man chester as would quadruple her population, and render her the first as well as the most enterprising city in Europe. Now, if this is admitted, one important feature of our case is placed at once in safety. The advantages of bringing sea going veesels into Manchester, there to break bulk for the first time, and of being able to load here and proceed at once direct to sea, are, we should suppose, too obvious for specification. The expense, and risk, and delays of doing business at second-hand; the large per centage of deductions from the manufac turer's profits which are involved in the brokerage and other charges of his Liverpool agents, with the other inconveniences which attach to the position in which he is now confined, are too much matter of daily complaint to call for remark. All of these are experienced by every merchant or manufacturer of Manchester who is a shipowner or importer. The same rule holds gocd if we look at the matter in regard to its bearings upon goods sent for export. We have all the same inconve niences, the same risks, the same delays. Hence it is clear that even on these grounds the advantages of being; enabled to carry sea-going vessels to and from Man chester are obvious and undeniable, and sufficient of themselves to justify the expenditure of no inconsider able amount of money in the search after such a con trivance as would effect that eminently valuable and de sirable object. By its means, if such a thing were now in existence, the conveyance of goods both to and from the warehouses and mills of Manchester might be so placed under the control and supervision of the owner, that no accidents, mistakes, or losses should occur, while the positive benefits which would accrue to him from its being in operation are beyond number. This is stating the question upon the mere ground of convenience to the shipper. A more important feature must, however, bo noticed, not because it has never formed the subject of remark and consideration, but because it cannot too often be borne in mind by those whom it must affect whenever the question to which we are now drawing at tention comes before them for discussion. We refer to the excessively heavy rates of toll to which shipping using the port of Liverpool has long been subjected. The dock and town dues of Liverpool are heavy in the extreme. They produce a magnificent, a more than princely, revenue to the corporate body by whom they are imposed, and to whose benefit they are appropriated. From those dues the regal edifices, the splendid temples, the almost Titanic erections which have been constructed for the purposes of commerce, of law, of business, and of pleasure, have each and all sprung. F rom these dues the purposes of philanthropy and of meanness, the indulgences of luxury, and the wantonness of wealth,are all supplied— duesbe i t remember- d deducted from the legitimate (though limited) profits of the merchant and manufacturer of Manchester and the neighbourhood. Now, in the event of our being able to bring sea-going vessels up to Man chester, these dock and town dues will be saved; at all events, the money now paid per ton for those objects, may be appropriated to the cost of conveying the ves sels to or towards Manchester. A small tonnage of 24d. will still be due for the buoys and lights on the Mersey, which is a fair and equitable impost, and which frees the vessel as far up the river as the tide flows. This saving, however, is not all. In addition to saving the dock and town dues of Liverpool, our manufacturers and mer chants would save the double cost of carriage to and from the docks to the railway—a charge which, upon cotton alone, exceeds annually 50,0001.—together with the porterage and other heavy dues, w ith w hi c h ship pers from Manchester vui Liverpool are only too well acquainted. These facts then being undeniably proved, the question of the advantage of bringing sea-going ves sels up to Manchester is settled. The next point comes (and upon this the discussion entirely rests and must be decided), by what means shall we accomplish so great and desirable an object? The first means which would natu rally strike the mind under tht•se circumstaces is a ship canal. Several companies have within the last 20 or 30 years been formed for this purpose. The impediments arising as well from natural as from artificial obstacles which fell in their course prevented the completion of the object for which they were formed. The obstacles might soon be shown to have been incidental to the system of an artificial water way. It would, however, take too much space to demonstrate this, and we are content to put the matter thus. Canal navigation was in its day a most valuable part of the means at our disposal for effective intercommunication. A new means of transport has been discovered. The prudent managers of canals are now rapidly converting them on all sides from their old shape into the form of the new means we have CANALS. ' i Dividend i Names of .

The latter, we think, is the more reasonable and the more correct supposi tion. These canalcorapanies are now seeking powers to become railways. Why then should not we, to accom plish the grand objc-ct of making Manchester a post, in stead of making a canal hereafter to be turned into a railway, construct the railway at once which is to convey sea-going vessels at once to and from this town of Man chester ? The proposition is not, we think, unreason able, if it can be shown that a railway can practically subserve the object in view with as much efficiency as a canal, namely, that of conveying safely and speedily vessels from the sea up to a dock in Manchester. ‘Ve believe practically a skip railway will accomplish all the objects required more effectually and more cheaply than a ship canal.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. sequestrating the living of Byfleet, and ordering that the debts of the Rev. Mr. Wetherell should be paid out of the profits of the living. The plaintiff being the first sequestration creditor at the commencement of last year, sent in his claim, the defendant entering into a- covenant to pay him 3001., with interest. As this was not done the present action was brought, the defendant admitting, by allowing judgment to go by default, that there were some profits of the living in hand. Mr. H. P. GATES, solicitor, of Peterborough, said that he held a warrant from the Bishop of Peterborough to sequestrate the living of Byfleet, Under that sequestra tion he was appointed to receive the rents, and had re ceived a sum of money amounting to 1,5611. Before the 23d of April in the present year he received the sum of 541/. 18s. Hid. Of that sum ho paid away on the 14th of April to Mr. Du Pasquier, the defendant's attorney, 3001. That was the only sum that had been at the dis poal of the defendant, the remaining portion being de voted to repairs, the curate's stipend, and other things. In November, 1844, the balance was 380/. Mr. l'unix made several objections to evidence being received of money received by the witness on account, after the action was brought, contending that money re ceived on the 23d of April could not be taken into con sideration. BAIL COURT, Dec. 1 1. (Before Lord Chief Justice DENMAN, Mr. Justice PAT• TESON, and Mr. Justice COLERIDGE.) At the sitting of the Court this morning their Lord ships gave judgment in the following case, which has been so often before the public. BARON DE BODE V. THE QUEEN. Lord DENMAN said it would be necessary to enter at some length into the preliminary history of this case, for the purpose of explaining the general propositions of the supplicant. It was alleged that the money which the supplicant claimed had been paid into the Bank of Eng land, and that it was virtually received by the Crown in trust for him, for the purpose of paying him compen sation for the property he had lost at the French Revo lution. It was alleged that this was as clear a fact as if the supplicant's name had been mentioned in the treaty that had been entered into between England and France. On the part of the Crown very long and able arguments had been urged to prove that even although the main facts put forward by the supplicant had been proved in evidence, still there could be no judgment in favour of the supplicant in the form of his proceedings, inasmuch as the property provided for by the treaty was only land or chattels. The Court at first might feel some regret that this line of objection had not been adopted at an earlier period against the supplicant's claim, for it might have had the effect of bringing the whole pro ceedings to a close, and have thereby prevented a large expenditure of money. Considering, however, the nature of the authorities that had been cited, and the obscurity which hangs over their law, the course that had been taken could not excite surprise ; for it was very natural that the advisers of the Crown should require all the facts to be distinctly proved which could constitute the claim, without surrendering one point of their jurisdic tion. The dignity of the Crown was such, as to require that if the right existed it should be pursued, without coming to any decision upon matters merely technical ; and it was the duty of the Court to examine es to whether the facts which had been found by the jury were sach as to establish the rights of the supplicant. The Baron de Bode made his claim in the character of a British subject, for compensation in respect to property which had been confiscated in France ;during the Revo lution. His Lordship having alluded to the conventions of 1806, 1815, and the Act of the 59th Geo. 111., pro ceeded to say, it was declared that there was a suns of .118,0001. deposited in the bands of Commissioners to pay off those claims which were guaranteed under terms of the treaty between England and France, and that more than 200,0001. of this money still remained in the Bank of England, having been paid them by the Go vernment ; and the supplicant claimed this sum, to make good the amount of compensation which he sought. The first step taken by the supplicant has in support of his character of a British subject, and the Court would assume, without giving that point conside ration, that his position so far was satisfactorily proved. The next question, however, was whether the supplicant was in such a situation as that the treaty could be fairly said to apply to him. The words of the treaty were to the effect, that the subjects of the two powers residing in each other's c oun t ry s h a ll b e pr i vileged to continue their particular: avocations without disturbance, so long as they committed no offence against the laws of the country in which they were living ; but in case of any suspicion of misconduct against the laws being com mitted, the parties shall be entitled to twelve months' notice, in order that they may have full opportunity of removing their property and effects from the country. This favour, however, was to be denied them if they acted contrary to the established law of the country. That was agreed to in 1806. In 1814 a provision was made for the sequestration of the property of those who had coin mitted certain offences against the laws of the country. The treaty in 1815, in the 9th article, considered the ne cessity of executing the four additional articles of the previous treaty, and it said that the subjects of the English Government had claims upon the French Go vernment, such persons as, since the Ist of January, 1793, had suffered confiscation, and that they should be idemnified and paid when their claims should be admitted as legitimate. This was a disputed passage of the treaty, and it was said that it only recognised those claims, and indemnified such, as were made according to the terms, and under the conditions, to be hereafter stipulated. In the treaty of commerce which had been entered into, in respect to emigration, it was declared that the supplicant should set forth the whole particulars upon which he founded his claim; but the second clause stated that if these conditions were violated by him, he was to be pre vented from removing his property and effects. The spirit of the two treaties, it was said, engaged to protect the supplicant's property, provided that he made it clear that the revolutionary government had confiscated his property. The inquisition, however, merely stated the facts that had occurred, and left the Court merely to draw the inference that the property had been unlaw fully confiscated. It did not say that this confiscation immediately followed the revolution in the country ; on the contrary, it appeared that there was a viola tion of the law of emigration on the part of the sup plicant. The Court could not take judicial notice of the meaning of the word, nor pronounce the law in respect to it. The general proposition could not be maintained unless it was proved that the individual was not in any way amenable to French law. If this law of emigration was not proved absolutely void as against the supplicant, they found that there was no complaint ever made of the French tribunal having pronounced sentence under it. They might constitute themselves a court of error in point of law, and a court of appeal in respect to all sen tences pronounced against British subjects ; but, what ever they knew of the French Revolution, they would not be justified in giving an opinion in a n y case w i t h out direct proof of the whole particulars as well as the na ture of the inquisition entered into. It appeared that the Baron de Bode had taken refuge in the Austrian army at the time it was actually invading the soil of France. No statement whatever appeared on the inqui sition that his claim had even been admitted, or any amount ascertained ; but the contrary in both respects. The Act of George 111., which was founded on the treaty of 1818, had for its object the providing for those claimants to whom the indulgence had been guaranteed. These were such persons as had caused their Denies to be duly registered within the period described by the convention of 1818. The supplicant alleged neither that his name or claim had been registered until after the passing of the Act. The Court could not see how it was possible to extract any claim, legal or equitable, to the payment of any money, the nature of which claim, or the amount of which had never been clearly established. Until such an inquiry was properly made, the Lords of the Treasury must have had good reasons for refusing the indulgence (guaran teed under certain circumstances) to the supplicant. The Court was, therefore, left to draw those inferences which he should have drawn for himself. Even if the main facts were maintained, the question would remai n as to whether her M a j es ty s h ou ld be said to have re ce i ve d the money that the supplicant laid claim to. A rule for a mandamus, to be directed to the Lords of the Treasury, had been applied for before Mr. Justice Coleridge, who discharged the rule on the ground that the Lords of the Treasury were the servants of the Crown, acting for the Crown, therefore th ere wou ld be a great incongruity in placing the Sovereign in the situation of issuing a writ against the Sovereign. Th e Court thought it right to express doubts up o n so me p o i n ts of the case, but in re spect to this point, their Lordships had no doubt what ever. They were, therefore, of opinion that there was no money received by the Sovereign, and further that had not been received to the use of the Sovereign. The other business w as no t of public interest. On cross-examination, the witnzss stated that he was the officer of the Bishop, but paid over to the defendant the rents he received. He was not aware that Mr. Du Pasquier had alien upon the living. He paid the money to him as defendant's attorney, under the sequestration. Mr. 1)u Pasquier gave him no notice that he had a lien upon the living. Mr. PHINN said he understood from Mr. Du Pasquier that he had a lien upon the living, but as that appt,,tred not to be the fact, he would leave the ease in the hands of the Court. The jury immediately returned a verdict for the plain tiff—Damages, 3221. 166.17 d. SHERIFFS' COURT, Dec. 11. Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BuRCHELL and a Common Jury.) PROCLAMATIONS OF OUTLAWRY. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. IV ORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York, Dec. 10. (Before Mr. Baron PLATT.) Thomas Kirk, 27, and John Blades, 19, two stout young men, having much the appearance of railway " na vigators," were indicted for that they, on the 27th of September last, at Hawsker-cum-Stainacre, in the North Biding, feloniously and violently did assault one Wil ham Ward, and steal from his person one shilling and twopence. Mr. Blanchard, with whom were Mr. Shaw and the Hon. Mr. Phipps, conducted the prosecution. The pri soners were both undefended. The prosecutor, an old man, in a humble station of life, stated that he lives at Stainacre, which is situate at about two miles from Whitby. On Saturday, the 27th of September last, he went to the town of Whitby to make some purchases, and was on his way home, on foot, at about eight o'clock in the evening, when, at some distance from the town, he saw two men in the road. He could not recognise the prisoners ; but he stated that on approaching the men there was something. in their manner which excited his apprehension, and he could perceive that one of them had on a dark dress, and the other a light one, and that was afterwards shown to be the dress of the prisoners on the night in question. They immediately closed upon him. One of them, he could not say which, seized him by the neck ; he received a blow on the neck or head, which felled him ; immedi ately after another blow on the side of his head. He had a purse in his breeches pocket, containing one chilling in silver, and twopence or twopence halfpenny in copper, besides some halfpence in his waistcoat. The men rifled his breeches pocket of the purse and its con tents, and then left him. On endeavouring to rise lie found a bludgeon, or a thick stick, of about two feet and a half long, lying across his breast. This stick he kept, and gave to a person living near by. It was a round knotty stick, apparently a bit of a sapling, and from its having a broken nail in it, was described by Ward as having formed part of a paling-fence. Several other witnesses were called to show that the men at the bar were seen on the road near the plan of the robbery, both shortly before and shortly after it was committed. A woman going out to milk some cows noticed them pass near the spot at about five ; and some neighbours of the prosecutor, who followed hiir e on the road from Whitby soon after he left, identified the prisoners as two men whom they had met walking at a quick pace toward, the town, at about half-past eight. A police-officer of Whitby said that he had met the prisoners at a late hour on the eight preceding. They stated to him that they were destitute, and without a lodging. He procured a lodging for them for that night in a house in the town, and there, it appeared, they had no means of paying for either breakfast or dinner, as they left the house in the morning, and took no meal there during the day. But on the following evening (that of the robbery) they re appeared at their lodging-house, and they then brought with them some bread anti cheese ; and Blades, on being asked if they wanted any tobacco, said they had plenty. A woman at the house asked them if they had " done anything," and Kirk said, " Yes, they had got as much money as would pay for their lodging," and for that they paid 6d. Mr. Wilkinson, the constable of Whitby, stated that, on being called on to apprehend the pri soners, he had asked them how they had obtained the bread, some of which he found along with them. They said they had begged it in the town, but could not say where. The wife of a joiner, in Whitby, proved that, at near nine on the evening of the robbery, Kirk came into a shop kept by her, and there purchased about 21b. of ,bread, for 4d. He asked for some cheese, but they had none for him. He was then alone, and he produced Is. in silver, receiving Bd. in copper for the change. Tile piece of bread found by the constable was not now pro duced, but another piece was produced in Court, to show the description of the bread found. The constable said it corresponded exactly with that sold at the shop, being of a similar shape, and what is termed " sad" (heavy) bread. The woman from the shop deposed that such was the kind of bread sold to Kirk. It ap peared from the evidence of a grocer, from another shop at the next door, that Blades purchased half a pound of cheese and half an ounce of to bacco at about the same time ; and he also appeared to come alone. He paid fourpence for the two articles. A medical gentleman, who had been to see the old man professionally, immediately after he was robbed, said that when he found him at his house he seemed half stupified—" mazed." His face was covered with blood. There was a severe wound on his right temple, and a severe bruise behind the left ear, and his face was scratched, as if from falling with it upon the ground. Upon these facts, after the Learned Judge had taken a full review of them in his summing up, the jury almost immediately pronounced a verdict of Guilty as to both the prisoners. In passing sentence, the Learned JUDGE addressed the men at the bar in terms of strong condemnation of their crime. His Lordship reminded them that that crime would but a short time ago have had to be expiated upon the gallows, and told them that if the prosecu tor's life had been taken away by their violence they would certainly have forfeited their own lives as his murderers. This being the County - Court-day for Middlesex, Mr. Kemp, the officer of the Sheriff, made proclamation in the usual manner, and the following persons not answer ing to their nam es , were d ec l are d ou tl a ws at the su i t o f their respective creditorc—John Aden Smith, Henry Hope Vernock, Augustus Pocock, Henry Lescombe, John Mynde Cooke, at two separate suits; Robert Rout ledge Crai7, the Hon.

Brown, aged 30, and Mar Best, aged 28, were tried for having, on the 16th of October last, at Leed s , fel on i ous ly an d violently stolen a purse, two sovereigns, and some other articles, from the person of Benjamin Wheaten The prisoners were all convicted, and each sentenced to transportation for life. Jonathan Bennett, aged 25, a mechanic, charged with manslaughter, in having killed Mary Knowles, at Shef field, on the 16th of August last, was found guilty of a common assault. It was proved that the prisoner had struck the deceased some blows, while in a state of in toxication; but it appeared probable that she had died of apoplexy rather than from the act of the prisoner. Sentence, to be imprisoned one week, the prisoner having been in custody during three_ months before his trial. SEQUESTRATION OP A CLERGYMAN'S LIVING-SMITE (Before Mr. Justice ERLE.) Joseph Broadbent was charged with an offence against the bankrupt laws, in having on the 24th of October last, at Leeds, feloniously refused and neglected to appear to a summons of the Leeds District Court of Bankruptcy. In the opening of the case by Mr. Hall, it was ad mitted that, although a notice to appear had been served on the bankrupt, the manner of serving it was not in strict compliance with the Act 5 and 6 Victoria, c. 122. His LORDSHIP said he had considered that point upon a previous occasion, and deemed such compliance essential to support a criminal proceeding of the present kind. Without it the prosecution must fail, according to the view be took of the statute. The prisoner was therefore Acquitted by direction of the Court. Joseph Hutchinson, 31, was indicted for having, on the 9th of August, at Sheffield, feloniously stabbed, cut, and wounded Ebenezer Hutchinson with intent to do hint grievous bodily harm. Mr. Overend and Mr. Phillips conducted the prosecu tion. The prisoner was undefended. It appeared from the evidence of Ebenezer Hutchin son, who is the prisoner's own brother, that both of them had been working together in a colliery at Attercliif. They had frequently had quarrels ; and the prosecutor had heard that the prisoner had been telling tales against him to the manager of the colliery, in order to cause him to be discharged from his employ. On the day in question they were in a public-house together, and after leaving it the prosecutor saw the prisoner in the street, talking with two other persons. He approached him, and said, " Well, Joe, what hast got by thy tale-telling?" The prisoner replied, "I'll tell thee." lie (the pri soner) lifted his fists at the same moment, and squared, as if to fight. The witness immediately knocked him down. Shortly after they again met in the street, when the prisoner came up to the witness, who immediately felt himself stabbed by his brother. He "let his bowels out." The wounded man then went to Mr. Shaw, the surgeon, "carrying," as he expressed it, "his bowels in his hand." V. NISBETT. In this case Mr. Gray appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Phinn for the defendant, the action being brought to recover the sum of 3221. 16s. 7d., under the following circumstances:— Mr. Clayton, the assistant of the medical man, proved that the prisoner afterwards, in speaking of the wound inflicted, said that he hoped his brother might die. Mr. Justice ERLE, in sentencing the prisoner, observed to him, that whenever recourse was had to deadly wea pons in this manner, an example would certai❑ly be made in the Courts trying persons for such offences. This was a remarkably aggravated offence, and the Jen tenco, therefore, was, that the prisoner should be trans ported for the term of fifteen years. Liverpool, Dec. 10. Their Lordships were engaged during the greater part of the day in the trial of a class of cases the parti culars of which are unfit for publication. Nothing of public interest occurred in either Court. From the statement of plaintiff's counsel, it appeared that in July, 1844, the plaintiff, Mr. Henry Vincent Smith, recovered judgment against the Rev. Charles Wetherell (whose name has been recently before the public in the celebrated action for crim. con., brought against him by his son-in-law, Mr. John Mynde Cooke), the rector of Bvfleet, Northamptonshire, for a debt of 1,5001. The beneficial interest of the living came into the possession of a Mr. Henry Nisbett, the brother of the defendant, who was indebted to the plaintiff in the sum of 3001., which the defendant covenanted to pay with interest.

It should be stated that at the prisoner's house were found fifty duplicates for gold rings and other articles of value. The prisoner denied any participation in the burglary, and said he found tr,e base coin in the street. He was remanded. LAMBETH. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A RAILWAY POLICEMAN. William ifoore, late a policeman on the South-Western Railway, was charged before the Hon. G. C. Norton with violating the person of Sarah Prevett. Mr. Dalby, the:superintendent of policefon the South- Western Railway, said that three weeks ago a repre sentation had been made to him by one of his sergeants with respect to the misconduct of the prisoner towards the young woman, which he felt it to be his duty to place before the manager, and the result was, that the prisoner was ultimately dismissed from his situation. The Directors felt, from the prisoner having been em ployed by them to protect the public, his conduct had been such that, in addition to his dismissal, they ought to send him before a magistrate, and had instructed him (Mr. Dalby) to state that should his Worship be of opinion, after a full investigation of the circumstances, that the case was one for prosecution, they would be accountable for all the expenses. The complainant, a rather pretty-looking young woman, who gave her evidence with some reluctance, upon being sworn, stated that on the day before (Wed nesday) three weeks, she obtained leave from her mistress to visit her father and friends at Kingston, and had paid her fare to go by the South-Western Railway. When about to enter the train, the prisoner, who opened the carriage -door for her, asked her where she was going, and what time she should return, and she told him, and said she would be back by the six o'clock train ; upon which he said he should be on the look out for her. She did not return so early as she intended, but on arriving at the Nine Elms-Station she saw the prisoner. He ex pressed a great desire to see her home or part of the way home, and she, at his request, waited in front of the station for him until he had done duty for the night. The prisoner and herself then proceeded as far as Tower hill, on her way to her mistress's, when Moore re quested she would go into some public-house with him, that he might have an opportunity of taking down her address, in order to write to her. She went into a public house with him, when they had a pi n t o f a l e , an d where he kept her till half-past eleven o'clock at night, though her proper time to be home was ten o'clock. The prisoner then told her it was no use her attempting to go home that night, and said that if she accompanied him to his lodgings in Battersea-fields, his land lady would procure her a bed for the night, and she could get home on the following morning. Upon his promise that a bed should be provided for her, she accompanied the prisoner to Battersea, but on getting there he said the people at his lodgings were all asleep, and there was no use disturbing them. lie also said he knew of a house in Battersea-fields, where they could sit until the coffee shops were opend in the morning, and not suspecting he meant anything wrong, she went with him until they reached a shed and some haycocks, and here for the first time he commenced taking improper liberties with her. She succeeded in defeating two attempts upon his part to vio• late her person, but in his third attack he effected his pur p use. Her clothes and bonnet were much injured by the muddy state of the field, but after cleaning them as well as she could, she, on the Thursday morning, went to the house of her mistress, said she had unfortunately missed the train, and could not get to town on the night before. Her mistress, however, refused to take her back, and discharged her. She removed her boxes to the house of her aunt and uncle, and on the same evening went to the Nine Elms terminus to see the prisoner. She spoke to a sergeant of the railway police, who questioned her about her intimacy with the prisoner, whom he represented to be a married man, and she told him what had happened, and by his directions she went before the superior officers of the railroad on the follow ing day. Upon being closely questioned by the Magis trate, the witness reluctantly admitted that, after coming out of Battersea-fields, she had accompanied the prisoner to his lodging s , and that there a re p et i t i on o f t h e act took place without her making any resistance; but added, that this was in consequence of the prisoner making the most solemn promise of marriage, and declaring he would never forsake her. Mr. Dalby here said, that upon being spoken to in the first instance by the manager of the railway, the prisoner had offered to marry the young woman, provided it was found that she was respectable, and that her character was good. The manager in consequence kindly insti tuted an inquiry, from which it appeared that the father of the young woman was a very decent man, and had been for some years in the service of the Woods and Forests; and th,2 young woman herself was also found to be a person of good character; but the prisoner, notwith.. standing, did everything to evade his promise. Mr. NORTON observed, that the conduct of the pri soner was most disgraceful, and the case was a very proper one for the directors of the railway to take up. The prisoner was employed to protect the public, and particularly those travelling by the railroad, and should be the last to be guilty of such disgraceful conduct. The prisoner was remaLded. THA i'llE S. COAL DITTY. —William Bramstone, master of the Countess of Malmsbury, appeared to a summons charg ing him with having unladen a cargo of coals without payment of the duty, whereby he forfeited a sum nut exceeding 5Z The City Solicitor supported the summons and Mr POLICE INTELLIGENCE. • GUILDHALL. George John Ford, a printer, was brought before Me. Alderman Hunter, charged with arson. Baker, the ward beadle of Cripplegate, stated, that on Wednesday the Coroner of London called an inquest to inquire into the cause of a fire which had recently oc curred in Braim's-buildings, Beech-street, Barbican, by which two , houses were burnt ; and the prisoner was given into his custody by the coroner, with directions to bring him before the magistrate. The jury had found a verdict that the prisoner had wilfully set fire to the premises. Mr. Alderman HUNTER asked if any one appeared to prosecute him for the offence? Baker said the witnesses were in attendance, and there was a gentleman on behalf of the Imperial Fire-office. The gentleman referred to rose, .and said he attended to watch the case, but he had not received any instruc • tions to prosecute. Mr. Alderman HUNTER asked the beadle if he had any witnesses who had not been examined before the co roner ? Baker answered that he hael-not. Mr. Alderman HUNTER said the case appeared to have been sent before him by the courtesy of the Co roner of London, but as a warrant of commitment would be issued by the coroner, and the witnesses had been bound over to appear at the Central Criminal Court, it was needless fur the magistrate to travel over the same ground. His abstaining from doing so involved no failure of justice, and he should allow the prisoner to stand committed on the coroner's warrant. The Coroner of London shortly afterwards reached the office, and said he had heard from the beadle the result of the proceedings, but he wished to explain to the Magistrate the reason he had sent the case before him. The prisoner had caused two houses to be burnt, one of them being his own house. The burning of this was a felony by the statute, but not by the common law, and therefore he, as coroner, could take no cogni zance of that offence, and sent the matter before the Magisti ate for inquiry. At the same time he must be permitted to express his surprise that the solicitor for the Imperial Fire-office had stated that he had no evi dence to offer, no instructions to prosecute. He expected the fire-office would be the first to support a prosecution and take care the ends of justice were secured, and he was surprised to find the solicitor was not prepared to say what course he would take. He had committed the prisoner only fur burning the house next to his own, which was an offence by the common law as well as the statute law. The solicitor to the fire-office said they were not in different to the matter, but had not determined what course they should take. He thought the remarks of the coroner were uncalled for, as the Queen was the prose cutor. The Coroner asked him if he shut his eyes to what was passing daily round him ? Did he not see public bodies, and even individuals, prosecuting charges in police courts, by the aid of counsel, to take care that the ends of justice should be attained ? Mr. Alderman HUNTER asked if the witnesses were still in attendance ? The beadle said they were not. There was only one remaining, who would depose to a conversation he had with the prisoner. The ALDERMAN said he had heard enough to justify him in - detaining the prisoner for further examination; and be therefore remanded him. CLERKENWELL. James North, late a private in the 2d Regiment of Foot, was placed in the felon's dock, charged with bur glariously entering the house of Messrs. Walker, sur geons, 57 and 58, St. John-street, Clerkenwell, and stealing therefrom a gold watch, brooch, and other articles ; also, on suspicion of being concerned in bur glaries at the houses of Messrs. Darlow, Baldwin, and Neale, 61, 62, and 63, in the same street. The prisoner was undefended. It appeared from the evidence that, on the night of the 22d of November last, a series of burglaries of a most daring description were committed at the above-men tioned houses, but since then the police have been unable to discover the perpetrators. Nothing could be more adroit than the manner of their execution, and one would be led to think from the circumstances con nected with them, that the burglars were more desirous of showing their skill than of acquiring gain, for in Mr. Walker's they took a watch from the very bedroom in which he slept, leaving unto shed another gold watch which stood upon the table. Trom the same room they took a bunch of keys, not minding about 100/. in gold and notes which were within their reach. From another of the houses they carried off 10/. in cash, and never meddled with a drawer full of plate which lay open be fore them. They forced their way into the lower part of Mr. Walker's house, and entered the others by the windows. They escaped with their booty undetected. The prisoner lives in Bridgewater -gardens, Chiswell street, and although without a pension, and destitute of any means of obtaining a livelihood, has a very comfort. able home. When arrested by inspectors Lernan and Tate, of the G division, he had two knives and five counterfeit crown pieces on his person. He was ar rested in consequence of information given by a man named Tapp, to whom the prisoner said that on the night of the robbery he was going home along St. John-street, when he saw a ladder against one of the windows. He further said that the stolen watch was offered for sale for the sum of St, and mentioned other incidents connected with the burglary. When apprehended, he stated that a man, named " Civil Jack," was on the watch outside Mr. Walker's, whilst the others were doing the work.
