LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 6 a 1844. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAI.. GLOBE.--Posterity's Plutarch (who will perhaps look back to a Lord Mayor as a Megalatherion, which, we may inform our mere English readers, means a great beast—no longer extant) will perhaps amuse himself, after the manner of his classical pro totspe, with drawing a parallel—or rather contrast between the present Lord Mayor and the pre sent Bishnp of London. The characteristic effort of the former exalted functionary seems to make differences, and the characteristic effort of the latter (as Sir Peter Laurie says) to split them. If Bishop Blomfield and Lord Mayor Gibbs both ener gised in the same sphere of action, the latter would blow up billows for the former to ride up and down upon. The all-defying soul of Gibbs would complete what is wanting to the scolding one of Phillpotts. The Lord Mayor's soul is above scolding, and seems to find its exclusive satisfaction in assuming attitudes of defiance on grounds no one else would think tenable. With such a Primate, the Church would witness the days of Archbishop Laud back—and something more. We have not brought these spiritual and secular digni taries into mere arbitrary juxtaposition; as our readers will perceive, if they turn to the scene in yester day's Common Council. The Lord Mayor again ex hibited himself in his character--unaccountable, and immoveable (again too on a matter of finance) —the justum et tenacem propositi virum, on whom the civium ardor prava jubentium is simply thrown away. If the Puseyites ever elect a Pope (and for some reason, best known to themselves, they don't choose to obey the existing one, whom Mr. Ward nevertheless calls the " Chief Bishop on Earth," and concerning whose infallibility Mr. F. Faber cites with approbation the sentiment of Manzoni—that it is " the main point, from which the smallest deviation is damnable heresy") —if, we may say, the Puseyites ever elect a Pope of their own—and they seem on the point of doing so— we should strongly recommend them to take into con sideration the unique aptitudes for their purpose of the present Lord Mayor, when the term of his present office shall have happily expired. " Jove in the chair Of the skies Lord Mayor," was a joke to Lord Mayor Gibbs in this crowning year of his astonishing Aldermanship. His "dogmatic decrees" are just what the Puseyites want—decisions, namely, which are not to be criticised or questioned " without presumption." Any attempt to get either an account or an argument from him—in short to question the infallibility of his sum total, whether of mind or money—is an attempt not to be enter tained or discussed, but to be put down as damnable heresy. The scene of yesterday was a specimen of this. The matter which had been under discussion was the report made to the Court by their Finance Com mittee, to whom had been referred the petition of the Rev. James Tyler, 8.D., rector of the parish of St. Giles's-in- the4ields, praying for pecuniary aid towards the erection of a new free church in that district, which was brought up and read.—lt recommended a grant of 2001. in aid of the undertaking. On the mo tion that the Court agree with the Committee in their report being put, Sir Peter Laurie made an oration, in reading which we were tempted to exclaim- "Mon ane parle, et meme it park Men." It is not, perhaps, known so universally as, we think, it ought to be, that Sir Peter Laurie has set his heart upon two things, as his special earthly mission, and which he looks upon himself as the honoured instrument destined for accomplishing. One of them is the taking up of wood pavement, and the other the putting down of Puseyism. When Sir Peter Laurie shall have accom plished both these great works single-handed, he will sing his 1 8 11171 C dimities. There may be more far sighted sagacity even than usual in these two enter prises, which the City champion of our Protest untism and paving-stones is thus carrying on, as it were, abreast. If Puseyism and wood-pavements continue extending themselves concurrently any far ther, we are evidently threatened with the double danger of a revived disposition towards autos da fe, and of the temptation to celebrate such acts im promptu, afforded by wood ready at foot. We must refer our readers to Sir Peter Laurie's own words for a full estimate of his wisdom, only remarking that we have, for once, the satisfaction in a good measure of agreeing with him. But Lord Mayor Gibbs's last new exhibition of infallibility was the immediate sub ject of our notice. After some discussion on the mo tion for agreeing to the report— " The Lord Mayor, after referring to the original petition and to the terms of the report, and conferring upon them with the Recorder, stated that the report not being in accordance with the reference, it must fall to the ground, as the question could not be put. " • F scene here ensued, in which it was eon- Wire and several others, that it was for the 1,5 L•ge of the fact whether or not the repoi t ace - 1 1.1f1 he terms of the reference, and that the Court would surrender its privileges if it submitted in such a matter to the dictum of the Lord Mayor. "A scene of great confusion prevailed, but "The Lord Mayor persisted in his decision, and called for the next order on the paper to be taken, upon which " Mr. De Jersey moved that the Court do now ati journ. " On this motion a division took place, when there appeared—For the adjournment, 38 ; against it, 31 ; majority 7. " The Lord Mayor then retired with the other autho rities, but " Mr. W. H. Ashurst called upon the members to remain, as lie maintained the privilege of the Court had been invaded by the decision at which the Lord Mayor had arrived." A large body remained accordingly, and agreed to a resolution to the effect, that " It is the opinion of this meeting that the ruling of the Lord Mayor on the discussion of the report of the Finance Com mittee, touching the grant of 2001. to the new free church in St. Glles's-in-the-Fields, is subversive of the rigtitsseelree discussion, and interferes with the privilegek Ware Court of Common Council." It is clear the'rnaknanimous breast of Gibbs confronts a world which is not worthy of him. It is equally clear the Press should vote him a piece of plate—we forbear to say what metal. At this dull season, the Fourth Estate owe him a deep debt of gratitude. BANK OF ENGLAND. (From Friday Night's Gazette.)

No evidence having been called for the defence, The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE summed up, and, after, a deliberation of half an hoar, found for the plaintiff. suggest, that as there was n probability that one , of the parties to the recognisances might proceed to India, the amount of the bail ought to be increased. Mr. RODWELI said the first question to be dis posed of was, whether the trial should be postponed or not. _ _ Mr. Justice WILLIAMS consented to the postoonE , - inent of the trill mail the spring Assizes, and the subject thenAropped. SOUTH WALES ClRCUlT.—Chesler, Dec. 4. (Before Mr. Baroti GURNEY.) The Learned Baron, who appears to be labouring un der indisposition, did not take take his seat this morning j l until a few minutes before ten ; and at four in the after noon his Lordship suddenly adjourned, to the surprise of the Bar, although, in order to deliver the gaol pre vious to the time fixed for the sitting at Liverpool (Mon day 'text), it is quite evident much longer sitting care required. The grand jury did not separate until nearly six o'clock, having, we understand, completed their busi ness; but the bills laid before them in the lager part of the day not having been brought into Court, of course it cannot be known whether they are true bills or not, and very considerable anxiety prevails on the subject, as it was understood the case of Winterbottom would be called on the first to-morrow. A great number of wit nesses, gentlemen of the legal profession, have arrived in town, including Mr. Bush, of Loudon, who is solicitor for the prosecution. Wilkim Williams, an elderly looking respectable man, pleaded guilt' to an indictment, charging him with in termarrying with Maria Furness during the lifetime of his former wife. The prisoner stated in mitigation, that shortly after his first marriage he enlisted into the army, and was out of the country for many years. OR being discharged he came hotne, and found his wife married to another man, with whom she bad cohabited for a period of thirteen years. Being ignorant of the law, and wish ing for a home, he thought there was no harm in again marrying. The Learned JUDGE told him the misconduct of his wife was no excuse for his crime, and sentenced him to four months' imprisonment and hard labour. MIDLAND ClRCUlT.—Leicester, Dec. 5. The Coinmissions for the county and borough of Lei cester were opened this day at an early hour, after which his Lordship proceeded to church to hear Divine service. The calendar for the county contains some serious cases, such as two cases of manslaughter, one for bigamy, one for sacrilege, one for highway robbery, several bur glaries, and two cases for cutting and maiming. In the borough there are seven indictments. A man, named Clutter, was convicted of assaulting and wounding Edward Turner, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.--York, Dec. 4. William Petter was indicted for arson. Wilkins and Mr. Dearsley conducted the prosecu tion ; the prisoner was nut defended by counsel. The principal witness against the prisoner was his brother-in law, Thomas Goiters, a lad about nineteen years of age, whose face, from cancer, presented a fright ful spectacle. He said the prisoner and his wife lived with witness's father, at Wistow, and that, on the Ist of Oc tober last, they went out together late in the evening. They walked along the road to the house of a person named Dixon, and afterwards across the fields to the house of a person of the name of Neville. When they got to Neville's, the prisoner told him to set the house on fire. Witness said he durst not. The prisoner said he would kill him if he did not. Witness then lit a match, by rubbing it on his trousers, and set fire to the h6use. The prisoner was four or five yards off. The house was thatched. The thatch came down on the one side to within four or five feet of the ground. Set fire to it at the north corner, at the back. It began smutch ing (smouldering). Witness and the prisoner then went to bed. Some time after there was an alarm of fire. The prisoner got up and went to the place. Witness's father and mother, and sisters, were up when witness went out, and when he came hack. On cross-examination the witness said that Neville's was 400 or 500 yards from his father's house. There had been no talk of setting fire to any house before they went out. Witness got the matches at home. Had them in his pocket. 'rho prisoner did not know witness had them. Asked witness when they got to Dixon's if he had got any. It appeared that shortly after the time mentioned by this witness Mr. Neville was alarmed by a smell of fire, and examining the house, found a portion of the thatch in the corner apartment in a smouldering flame. Ile gave the alarm, and his neighbours being in prompt at tendance, the further progress of the fire was stayed. His wife, his father, and five children were in the house. Some evidence was given of the accomplice's state ment—such as showing that they were met on the road to Dixon's about the time specified, and that there were traces in the hedges between Dixon's and Neville's show ing that seine persons had lately,passed that way. The prisoner, on being apprehended, made a statement to the constable, in which he alleged that he and Golten had gone to Dixon's, and that Golten lit a match and threw it into one of the loopholes at the barn - . That they went to Neville's, and that Golten, notwithstanding his expostulations, set fire to the thatch. He said they then went home, and that witness told his father and mother in-law what had been dune, and that they cau tioned him not to say a word about it to anybody. This, however, Mr. Golten denied. His LORDSHIP having summed up, th• jury found the prisoner Guilty. Sentence deferred. The case against the prisoner for firing Mr. Dixon's barn was not gone into. It was stated that the prisoner had assigned as a motive for the act, that he, being bricklayer, expected to get the job of rebuilding the pre mises, and that after the fire he actually applied for it. OXFORD CIRCUIT.-- 7 -Worcester, Dec. 4. (Before Mr. Justice COLTMAN.) William Rea, aged 17, a clownish-looking lad, de scribed as a nailor, was indicted for having, at I3ro►ns grove, on the 11th of /ctober, maliciously shot at and wounded Hannah Whatmore, with intent to do her some grievous bodily harm. Mr. H. S. Silfe conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Huddleston the defence. It appeared front the evidence, that after dark on the evening in question, as the prosecutrix was walking in a lane near Bromsgrove with a young man named James, the prisoAer, who was on the other side of the hedge, discharged a gun, the contents of which lodged in the left leg of the prosecutrix. The light from the flash of the gun and from an adjeining cottage enabled the pro secutrix to identify the prisoner, who was seen imme diately after the discharge running from the spot to wards a place where the gun was subsequently found, and where the footmarks of the person depositing such gun were clearly established to have been made by the shoes of the prisoner. The gun in question had been borrowed on the morning by the prisoner for the pur pose of shooting spsrrows, and was charged only with a pellet of paper, which had penetrated the leg of the prosecutrix andibecome hidden in the flesh, requiring an incision by the surgeon for the purpose of extraction. No motive, either of jealousy or otherwise, was sug gested for the act ; indeed, the parties appeared to have been comparatively strangers to each other. For the defence it was Contended that 'the discharge was acci dental, or at the utmost a boyish freak to frighten the prosecutrix and her swain, without any intention of in flicting any bodily harm on either. The jury found the prisoner Guilty of an assault, and he was sentenced to three months' hard labour. Thomas Wridyicay, aged 24, joiner, and William Kent, bricklayer, were charged with stealing from the person of Richard Holtham, at Upt3n-on Severn, on the 13th of October, nine sovereigns, a 51 Bank of England note, and a purse. Mr. W. H. Cooke conducted the prosecution ; Wridg way was defended by Mr. Beadon, and Kent by Mr. Huddleston. The prosecutor, an elderly and frugal labourer, came to Upton at an early hour on Sunday, the 13th of Oc tober, to purchase a stock of provisions for the ensuing week, and had with over-caution brought with him 141., the amount of his savings, from an apprehension of losing it during his absence if left behind at his lodgings. As he proceeded down the street with his groceries, &c., in a handkerchief, the prisoner Wridgway seized the bundle and carried it into the house of Kent, where its restoration was refused until the prosecutor had stood treat for some beer, a gallon of, which beverage was or dered from an adjoining public-house, and pail for by old Holtham, who incautiously exposed his wealth to the gaze of his companions. The liquor very soon bad the effect of confusing the simple-minded countryman, and Kent undertook to count the money, and pretended to place it safely in the breeches-pocket of the prosecutor, who, suspecting no fraud, made no effort to ascertain the truth of the assertion. On the supposition that his cash was safe, Holtham proceeded homee ards, accompanied by Kent during a portion of the' walk, and, on emptying the pockets of his smallclothes previous to retiring to rest, discovered his purse and money to be missing. The 5/. note, part of the plunder, had been in the old man's possession for two years, and wai the only note of that amount he had ever been the owner of. Its number had been taken down for him soon after its re ceipt by a neighbouring farmer, whose written memo randum was fortunately in existence. This note, thus clearly identified, was passed by Wridgway at an early hour on Monday morning, and in the course of the same day he was proved to be exhibiting many sovereigns in the public-houses at Upton. The counsel for the prisoners severally urged the in nocence of their respective clients, who both received ex cellent characters up to the period of this offence, and The Learned JUDGE left the jury to decide whether both or either had committed the offence. A verdict of Guilty, accompanied by a recommenda tion to mercy on account of their former characters, having been returned, the prisoners were sentenced to one year's imprisonment with hard labour—Wridgway expressing a wish that he might be transported instead, a request to which no attention was paid. The Grand Jury came into Court about five o'clock this afternoon with an ignored bill against Mr. Hassell for the manslaughter of his wife—a decision which had been awaited with much impatience during the day by a very crowded audionee. It has been noticed as a curious and unusual circum stance th.it out of a panel of 52 jurors summoned for these assizes, 30 should be inhabitants of Kidderminster, and the remaining 22 of Dudley, in which vicinity the excitement cn the subject of Mr. Hassell's case has pre vailed to a very formidable extent against the accused, and that not a single juror should have boen selected froM the other parts of this populous and very straggling county. POLICE INTELLIGENCE (YESTERDAY. ) GUILDHALL. Edward • Horden, in the employ of Mi. Hesketh Hughes, warehouseman, of Wool-street, Cheapside, was charged with stealing a quantity of crape lisse.

(Before Captain I'ERCY, J. F. STEPHBNBON, Esq., and T. HARRISON, Esq.) ADULTERATION OF BEER,—Richard Knock, of the White Hurt public-house, White Hart-yard, Drury-lane, was charged upon information with adulterating his beer. John Austin, supervisor of Excise, stated that on the 10th of August last he went, in company with Mr. Butler, another officer, to the house of defendant, and requested to examine his stock of spirits. He went into the cellar, and on the top of one of the ale casks he found a tap-tub containing liquor. He tasted it and found that it was sweet, with a little undissolved sugar in it. He culled Mrs. Knock, who said that the ale being hard she had put 31bs. of coarse sugar into it. He collected the contents of the tub in a bottle (produced), which is very sweet, and took samples of the beer. Mrs. Knock remarked that although she had told the officer she had sweetened the beer, such was not the case, as she was so nervous she scarcely knew what she said. She then called a servant girl to prove that she never put anything but linings into the beer, and that the tub found by the officers was used in the making of elder wine. The COURT considered the case proved, and fined the defendant in the mitigated penalty of IA SUNDAY MORNING DRAM•SIALLERS.—Josiah Campbell P e gg, owner of a small garden near the Bee Hire, Newington, was charged with retailing spirituous li quors, beer, and tobacco, without license. Two officers of Excise proved being served at a cottage in defendant's garden with beer, spirits, and tobacco. Other personi; were present smoking and drinking. They were charged at the same rate as in the houses of licensed victuallers. A solicitor addressed the Court for the defendant, but in his address admitted all and even more than had been proved by the officers, and was told by the Court that he had seriously damaged the case of his client. The Court inflicted a penalty of 20L-71. for beer, 10/. for.spirits, and 3L for tobacco. IMPORTANT DECISION..—Thornas Brady, keeper of the tap of the Black Lion, Water-lane, Fleet-street, was charged with selling liquors, &c., without license. The defendant pleaded that he sold under the license of the keeper of the Black Lion Hotel, which the Court declared to be altogether illegal, and fined him in Ogg pe nalty or 25/. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME ClRCUlT.—Chelmsford, Dec. 5. William Suckamore, aged 18, was indicted for a felonious assault upon Eliza Juniper. Mr. J. D. Chambers conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Marsh defended the prisoner. The circumstances under which the charge was brought against the prisoner were of a most aggra vated character. It appeared that the prosputrix, who is between forty and fifty years of age, and the wife of a labourer at Great Stambridge, in this county, was going home from church, accompanied by her son, a lad ten years old, in the middle of the day, in August last, when she was met by the prisoner, who accosted her,_ and asked what o'clock it was ? She replied that it was half-past one ;to which he an swered, " There is time, I will," and immediately thrust the prosecutrix into a ditch, and there, with great violence, and in the presence of her son, com mitted the offence imputed to him. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. Justice WILLIAMS, in passing sentence, ob served, that he did not recollect ever having heard of a more aggravated case than the present ; and but a short time ago, the prisoner's life would un doubtedly have been forfeited. The Legislature had abolished the penalty of death in such cases, but it gave the C ou rt no discretion to pass any other sen tence than the one he was about to pronounce, which was, that the prisoner be transported for the term of his natural life. Just as the Court was about to rise, Mr. RODWELL resumed his application on behalf of Miss Richardson for a postponement of the trial until the next Assizes, and he put in the affidavits of two medical gentlemen, to the effect that she was suffering under severe ill ness, and was not in a condition to attend the present Assizes on that account. Mr. RYLAND, on the part of the prosecution, said that the affidavits appeared to refer to some former illness, which information must have been derived from the statement of other persons. If, however, the Court thought they were sufficient, he, of course, would not oppose the postponement. lie would merely going D to his place of business, he discovered that a lot of , 7.es.ONEY MARKET and CITY N-L O, ' crape lisse, of the value of two pounds, se • missing. , FROM THU MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY . ,,,.

So • licitors attended pro and con, and, argued at great length upon the case, when it was proposed by the magistrate that the piano should be produced, but Miss Davis obsti nately declined acceding to this, and in order that some arrangement might be entered into by the parties, the case was adjourned until yesterday, when the com plainant attended with her solicitor, but the defendant appeared without her legal adviser, and said that since the adjournment of the case, the landlord had dis strained on the piano, and she, consequently, could not produce it. Mr. GREENWOOD, under the circumstances, could not make any order, as the law required him to order the party having possession of the property to return it, and the distraint being made, and the piano not being in the possession of defendant, he must leave the complainant to the civil remedy by action, or to have another sum mons. Ile, however, pronounced it to be a wicked pro ceeding, very much like fraud, on the part of Miss Davis, who ought to pay Mrs. Fentum for the piano. The case was dismissed. HAMMERSMITH.

Inspector Morgan deposed that on the Ist of June last, he was at the shop of Mr. -Tames Aldous, pawn broker, of King-street, Hammersmith, when he saw a silver teapot, of costly manufacture, which had been pledged there. Immediately afterwards he saw in the Government Police Gazette, that on the 25th of May, there was stolen from the house of the Duke of Rich mond, No. 51, Portland-place, a large silver teapot, which, froth the description he got, ivory handle and top, crest a lion, he recognised to be the same teapot he had seen at Mr. Aldoas's. He had since endeavoured to find the person by whom the teapot had been pledgcd, but had not succeeded in doing so until that morning, when being again in Mr. Aldous's shop, he saw the pri soner there. He told the prisoner he was the person he wanted. The prisoner asked him what he wanted him for, and he told him about the silver teapot. Mr. Aldous's shopman then brought forward the teapot, and the prisoner admitted having pledged it, he thought there could be no harm in his trying to sell it. The prisoner also said the teapot had been given to him by a Mr. Hughes, together with other articles, the duplicates re lating to which he then held in his hand. Witness, how ever, being convinced that the teapot was the property of the ' hike of Richmond, as it bore his crest, and he had also seen the fellow to it at his Grace's residence in Port laid-place, wished the prisoner to be remanded for a few days, in order to get time to obtain further evidence. Mr. CLIVE asked the prisoner if he had anything to say why he should not be remanded ?—The prisoner ad mitted having pledged the teapot, which he said was given him for that purpose by a Mr. Hughes, a gaming house keeper.

DESTRUCTION OF THE GRAND STAND at NEWCASTLE by FIRE. NE W CASTLE-ON-TYNE, WEDNESDAY. The inhabitants of this town were thrown into a state of consiierable excitement last night by a report that the Grand Stand, at our racecourse, in the occupation of Captain Fenwick and family, was on fire, and the report turned out to be well founded. A special messenger arrived on horseback for the fire engines, and no time was lost in conveying them to the spot. The fire had then made great progress, the grand staircase having become ignited, and the roof appearing as about to fall in. There was fortunately a good supply of water in a pond near, and the engines were soon at work playing on the destructive element, whilst parties were engaged in removing the valuable furniture and other things to the an-a in front. The inmates escaped through the adjoining fields, and found a temporary asylum in the mansion-house of Mr. Brandling. They were chiefly ladies, and such was the rapidity with which the flames extended after the fire was discovered, that they had only time to escape in the dress they wore at the time, without even head covering. By great exer tions the fire was at length subdued, but not before very extensive damage had been done to the building. From inquiries instituted, it is supposed the fire originated in one of the upper flues or chimneys, and thence communicated with the wooden platform erected al the very top of the building to extend the space occupied and let to visitors during the races. This platform was covered with pitch and felt, and burnt with great fury ; then it reached the grand staircase, the %thole of which is destroyed, and spread to the apart ments right. and left. ° you, to ask for " an old coat, or a pair 0. - I to e t' Recollect, Holywell-street i s . no t t oo proud chase the most worthless of wearing appar el ' r O O 9.

Soutter, who for many years carried on the business of a bill and exchange broker in Adam's-court, Old Broad-street, was summoned by Divine Providence on Sunday last to another state of existence. The unfortunate gentleman, who was seen by one or two of his friends in the City on the preceding day, apparently in excellent heath and spirits, entered the shop of a druggist in or near Holborn on Sunday morning (no doubt feeling ill at the time), when he almost immediately fell dawn dead. The immediate cause of this shocking catastrophe is at pre sent unknown, but it is presumed that a legal inquiry will be instituted into the circumstances, although Mr. Soutter's death was, in all probability, a perfectly n a t ura l one. The deceasedgentleman, whose eccentric manner and habits rendered him well known throughout the City, and who was much respected in the various mer cantile and monetary circles, was a native of Switzer land, and a member of the Swiss Protestant church in Soho, of which Mr. Audemars is the minister. He has, we believe, no family ties whatever in this country, but the Swiss Consul (it is understood) has undertaken the last melancholy duties of relationship, THE UNITED SERVICE MAGAZINE for December contains, as usual with this able periodical, many papers of vast interest both to professional and non-profession a l readers.
