The House of Lords met at a Quarter to Four o'clock, when a great number of Bills received the Royal assent, for which see report. The Duke of WELLINGTON moved an address to her MAJESTY on the birth of another Prince. A brief conversation took place relative to the eourt-martial on Lieutenant GRAY. Lord ABERDEEN said the French vessel had been searched without warrants, and on that fact being reported to the Ad miralty, the inquiry was instituted. The French Governmnt did not require a court-martial. The Marquis of NORMANBY moved for certain papers relative to the business of the House, and entered into some details for the purpose of showing how little business had been done. His speech was a review of the session. The Duke cf WELLINGTON, Lord WHARNCLIFIE, Lord LANSDOWNE, and other Peers followed, and, after a lengthened discussion, the motion, which had no real object was agreed to. The Poor-law Amendment Bill went through Committee, and the House adjourned at a Quarter to Twelve. The Commons met at Twelve o'clock, when the Roman Catholic Penal Acts Repeal Bill went through the Committee. The Report on the Insolvent Debtors Bill was re ceived, and the House adjourned. It met again at a quarter to Four, and went into Committee on the Lords' amendments to the Railways Bill, relative to Sunday travelling. After a few remarks from Mr. tiLansToNE on the immaterial changes which had taken place, Mr. TIIORNELY ex pressed satisfaction with the amendments, awl then moved that the charge fur the 'conveyance of passen gers by third trains on Sunday should not exceed ld. Per mile. The motion was agreed to, and the re port was received. What then has the Bishop Of LONDON guinel by his motion ? Third class trains are to travel on Sunday; the price is to be the same as on other days, and, con trary to the wish of the pious Bishop, the poor and the rich are to be placed on the same footing. Mr. THORN ELY is entitled to the hi g h est praise for his succassful resistance to the Puseyites. We have no wish, nor has Mr. THORNELY eitlier,to interfere with the management of railways. All we want is, that if any trains run on Sunday, the poor shall have the same privileges as the rich. A time is awning when the lower classes will see who are their real friends and among these they will not class the Puseyite Bishops. Sir ROBERT PEEL moved a congratulatory address to the QUEEN on the birth of another PRINCE. In answer to a question from Mr. T. DUNCOMBE, Sir ROBERT PEEL said he would move the adjourn ment of the House un Wednesday or Thursday to a certain period, which he could not at present state. The prorogation, however, would not take place till the judges could give their opinion on the case of the QUEEN V. O'CONNELL and others. The were anxious to have a conference. Captain BERNAL moved for copies of instructions to Lora Ilerrrantatr relative to Church patronage itt helaxia. Biz K. Party opposed the motion, and after some discussion it was withdrawn. The House adjourned at Half-past Eight o'clock. The public rejoice at the event which took place yesterday at Windsor Castle. The birth of another child of the QUEEN gives additional security that England shall no more be encumbered or embroiled by Hanover, and that King ERNEST and his de scendants must confine their prospects to their own dominions. England is well rid of the race and the country. Some additional expense will probably be entailed by this new addition to the Royal Family, but Englishmen will not grudge it when they know that it is another safeguard against the tyranny of Orangemen, and the most unpopular of all the sons of GEORGE the THIRD. Letters from Florence announce the death of JOSEPH BONAPARTE on the 28th of July, in the 78th year of his age. He was the immediate elder brother of NAPOLEON, and, we believe, the last of that illus trious family. What changes he had seen and expe rienced in his time 1 He had been King of Naples and King of Spain; he was appointed guardian of MARIE LOUISE and the King of Rosul, when BONA PARTE was struggling in a hopeless contest with the combined forces of Europe ; and it was owing to his alvice that these pledges of the EMPEROR'S care were hurried off from Paris. Their departure ex cited universal despair in the French capital. The inhabitants saw that all chance of success was gone, and they resigned themselves to their fate. He was the least remarkable for talent of any of the family, though a great favourite with his brother. His arrangements, previous to the battle of Vittoria, showed that he was totally incapable of conducting an army, or saving it from destruction, when he had the means in his power. He fled from Vittoria, and was never heard of till he gave up Paris to the Allies. Among the Yankeees he was no favourite; they would not recognise the Imperial Family; and after visiting various countries to find a place of rest, he at last settled at Florence. His life exhibits, in a most remarkable degree, the vanities of human vicissitudes. He was the last of a family that ruled the whole of Europe, and subjected Emperors and Kings to its dominion, and the announcement of his death produces no more effect upon the nations which his brother ruled, than the death of the humblest in dividual. Accounts from Madrid of the 29th ult. state that a great number of arrests had been made by NARVAEZ, on the plea that a conspiracy had been formed to overturn the Government. Forty per sons had been thrown into prison for a slight com motion at the barracks, which every one believes was caused entirely by Government agents, in order that a pretence might be had for imprisoning some of the leaders of the Opposition during the general election. Letters from Cadiz of the 25th . announce the ar rival of the French Consul from Tangiers, but the English Consul remained at his post. On the Madrid Bourse the Three per Cents. were done at 26 9-16 for cash, 261 at sixty days, and the Fives at 201 for the 23d of August. The Paris papers are entirely occupied with the affairs of Morocco, and the expulsion of Mr. PRITCHARD fromPtaheite. We find, however little new on the latter subject. There is the same rancour displayed against England. Indeed their language seems to become every day more violent, and they complain and bully as if Messrs. BRUAT and D'AUBIGNT were the in jured parties. The Presse, one of the Opposition journals, asserts that England has no claim to any re paration, and adds—" What she demands is unrea sonable and unjust, and the manner in which she requires it is imperious and insulting. We must op pose with firmness to the passionate reports of her agents the reports of our own ; we must prove to her the first violator of the law of nations was that same PRITCIIARD, at whose feet England wishes to make the amende honourable. She must be made to under stand how wrong her Government was to attempt to bring about so abruptly the denouement of an affair respecting which the information hitherto received was so incomplete. It must be finally demonstrated to Europe that right and justice are on the side of France, to whom such an audacious demand is made. After that England may adopt whatever course it thinks roper!" The Journal des Debuts speaks in a more rational strain, but it blames Sir ROBERT PEEL for the haste with which he prejudged the question. "We must say," this journal observes, "that the sentiments of animosity and irritation manifested at this moment in the French tribune and press, do not appear to us to be justified by the facts. To hear all that is said in France, one would think that it was a French subject that was incarcerated, and then ex pelled by the English authorities. We ought to re member that the contrary is the case, and that it is not for us, in the present circumstances, to show our selves irritated, or to pretend that we are humiliated The representatives of the French Government, pro voked by the intrigues of a troublesome individual, who has been called hot-headed by his own coun trymen, have taken vigorous measures with respect to him, which were, no doubt, required by im perious circumstances. But since we have a better position we ought, for that very reason, to main tain ourselves with dignity, and not add, by aggravating words, to the very natural unplea santness in which England feels herself of being in the wrong. It is not right to say that the English Government has already judged the question. It has prejudged it with a precipitation which we regret; but the explanations which have been given are, we believe, of a nature to modify its way of viewing it. At all events, the question is one of fact ; and, until these facts are cleared up, the French Government are right not to allow of any discussion on the subject." If this be the language of M. GUIZOT, he and Sir Ro- BERT PEEL are far yet asunder ; for, if we are to credit the Siecle, the British Government has delivered a note containing the following demands :—" Firstly, the dis m6sal of M. D'Aunioxy, the author of the measures adopted against the ex-Consul PRITCHARD ; secondly, the recal of Captain BRUAT, who, on his return, has sanctioned the measures adapted by the ad interim Government ; thirdly, the destruction of all the for tifications raised in the island whilst it has been placed under the de facto sovereignty of France; fourthly, the establishment of an English station of equal force to that of France, in order that in no case her Britannic MaJEsTr's subjects may want sufficient protection." We put little confidence in these statements. One thing, however, is clear, the Paris press, almost without exception, is doing everything in its power to embroil the two countries. Possibly the writers may be successful, and what then ? It is needless, how ever, to speak of the future, and it might be consi dered ungenerous to boast of the past. According to the latest accounts from Tangiers the disputes between France and Morocco still remain unsettled, though some approaches to a satisfactory ar rangement had, been made. The Moniteur publishe s the following official note on the subject:— " The Emperor of Morocco ordered an answer to be re turned, on the 11th of July, by his Minister Sid-Mohammed Bendris, to the letter which the King's Consul-General at Tangiers, M. de Nion, had addressed to him, on the 2Sth of June, to inform him of the intentions of the King's Govern ment. That answer, which arrived at Tangiers on the 22d July, is dilatory and evasive. " - The Emperor acknowledges in it the aggressions made on our territory, promises the punishment of the Kaids who have been guilty of them, and demands the recal of Marshal Bugeaud, owing to his occupation of Ouchda. He says no thing whatever about Abd-el-Kader. " On the receipt of this letter, and also of information from Marshal Bugeaud, stating that the war actually con tinued on our frontier of Algeria, the Prince de Joinville pro ceeded on the 23d of July, in the Pluton, to Tangiers. His Royal Highness made the King's Consul. General at Tangiers, with his family and a certain number of our countrymen, come on board his ship, were he kept them. " His Royal Highness has sent the Veloce steamer along the western coast of Morocco, as far as Mogadore, also to pick up our consular agents and countrymen. "On the 23d M. de Nion addressed the Emperor of Morocco another letter, demanding a precise and formal answer, and giving him a delay of eight days before the com mencement of hostilities. The Prince de Joinville has re turned to Cadiz with M. de Nion, and was to remain there until the expiration of the said delay. " In thedirection of our land frontier, the Kaid of Ouchda, El Gennaoui. has been dismissed and put in irons, and Sidi- H ammida-Ben-Ali, his successor, has made pacific overtures to Marshal Bugeaud. The Marshal has replied that he wishes for the maintenance of peace, but on the conditions expressed by the King's Government. " The Emperor has left Morocco for the north of his empire, without personally receiving Mr. Drummond Hay ' the Consul-G enera l of England, who has set out with the intention of overtaking him." The Paris Globe give these additional particu lars : " It is on the Ist of August that the dela7 given to the Emperor expires. In the absen ce o f reparation, both satis factory and in conformity with the ultimatum, the instructions of the Prince de Joinyille order him to open i mme di ately the fire of his ships upon Tangiers, and if nothing happens in the interval to satisfy the legitimate complaints of France, to burn all the ships belonging to Morocco, and to bombard successively the places on the coast, without exception, both in the Mediterranean and in the Atlantic. It is, therefore, pro bable, that at the moment when we write the French cannon have been thundering for three days against the coast of Mo rocco, for it appears evident that the Emperor,whose good inten. tions otherwise appear evident, has it not in his power to grant that which France demands, though these demands are not only her right, but are in themselves very moderato. It required, we arc assured, great precautions to embark the Consul of France, his wife, their children, and several French people who inhabited Tangiers, on boardthe Pluton. All thesepeople came almost one by one on board, under the pretext of wisLing to speak to the Prince de Joinville. M. de Nion was not able to bring his property, or even his linen, on board. The Moors at length guessed the reason for such embarka tion, and stopped the boxes and trunks which had been packed up, and they even opposed the departure of the cashier, who was obliged to remain at the consulate of Mr. Drummond Hay, the British Consul-General, who had re ceived instructions to declare to the Emperor of Morocco that the British Government thought the demands of France equally just and reasonable ; and who was also instructed to use his influence with the Emperor to induce him to do right, and to remove in the most positive manner all idea of any -moral support on the part of the Cabinet of London, went to Morocco to consult with Mule y Abderrhaman. The Emperor did not think proper to wait for Mr. Dummond Hay, and only left one of his Ministers to confer with him;, but the British agent, who was displeased, and properly so, but who was by no means discouraged, has set out in pursuit of the Emperor. There is the greatest diplomatic zeal in the pro ceeding of Mr. Drummond Hay, in the fact that he has left his eleven children at Tangiers." The Three per Cents. were quoted at Ton Tom's, on Sunday, at 81f. 25c. ACCOUCHEMENT OF HER MAJESTY. BIRTH OF A PRINCE. WINDSOR CASTLE, Auc. 6. This morning, at ten minutes before eight o'clock, the QUEEN was safely delivered of a PRINCE. In the room with her MAJESTY, were his Royal Highness Prince ALBERT, Dr. Lococx, and Mrs. LILLY, the Monthly Nurse. And in the rooms ad joining were the other medical attendants, Sir JAMES CLARK and Dr. FERGUSON ; and also the Lady in Waiting on the QUEEN. Intimation of her Majesty's illness was forwarded from 'Windsor Castle to town at six o'clock this morning. The Lord Chancellor, the Duke of Buc cleuch, Lord Privy Seal, Sir James Graham, Secre tary of State for the Home Department; the Earl Delawarr, Lord Chamberlain, and the Earl of Jersey, Master of the Horse, were the first to arrive, having left town by a special train, which arrived at the Slough terminus of the Great Western Railway at twenty-five minutes past eight o'clock. The Ministers and Officers of State immediately proceeded to the Castle in one of the royal carriages and four, which was in readiness. Sir Robert Peel, First Lord of the Treasury, and Lord Stanley, Secretary of State for the Colonies, arrived shortly afterwards, having travelled from town by a second special train. The Right lion. Baronet and his Lordship were likewise conveyed to the Castle from the station in a royal carriage and four. The Duke of 'Wellington arrived at the Castle soon after nine o'clock, the Noble Duke having travelled from town by a third special train. At half-past eight o'clock the following official bulletin was issued : " WINDSOR CASTLE, Aug. 6, 1844. " Half-past Eight, A.M. " The Queen was safely delivered of a Prince this morning at fifty minutes past seven o'clock. "Her Majesty and Infant are perfectly well. • -- " JAMES CLARK, M.D. " CHARLES LOCOCK, M.D. " ROBERT FERGUSON, M.D." THE LATE HURRICANE AT SEA Information was received on Monday at Lloyd's and the various maritime insurance offices in the City, of a dreadful hurricane having visited the different ports on Saturday and Sunday last, which was attended with a frightful sacrifice of human life, as well as great loss of property. At Tenby it commenced blowing fearfully from one o'clock in the morning from the south-east. About fire o'clock a.m., the Richard, Captain Cooke, of Sunderland, from Cardiff, for the port of London, was, owing to the violence of the hurricane, driven from her anchors, whilst riding in the Caldy Roads. After beating about for some time, in a sinking state, she was driven upon the South Tenby Sand. The preventive men, as well as a great number of the inhabitants, rendered all the assist ance in their power, and were instrumental in saving three of the crew. The Captain, William Cooke, how ever, was drowned, and also three of the crew. Their names are--William Watts, mate ; Robert Clashier, cook ; and James Tayte, seaman. The vessel went to pieces soon after she struck, and it has become a com plete wreck. A fishing smack called the Four Brothers, during the gale, lost two hands. The Jane (another smack) was driven on shore on the Penduce sands, and it is feared will become a wreck. The yacht Rose, be longing to Mr. Roper, of the same port, drifted ashore, and has become a wreck. Fortunately all on board were saved. At Newport the storm commenced at about the same time, with heavy showers of rain, and continued with little intermission until eight o'clock, when it abated a little. The most disastrous intelligence is expected from this port ; as yet the only information received is, that about the time the wind moderated, a vessel was observed passing the bay with her mainsail rent, and apparently making for Cardigan. At Torbay on Saturday and Sunday it blew so tre mendously, that the Brunswick steamer, Captain Rus sell, from Southampton for Plymouth, was obliged to land her passengers, she not being at Torquay, on ac count of the hurricane. The Perie, Captain Hodson, from Denmark, for New York, was obliged to resort to the same expedient. At Teignmouth the gale was equally severe. About ten o'clock on Saturday morning a steamer was observed standing in from sea ; her figure head was carried away, and so was her bowsprit ; whether or not she had re ceived any greater damage could not be learned. At Bristol the hurricane was tremendous, with heavy rain, thunder, and lightning. The shipping, however, escaped with trifling injury. At Llanelly, on Saturday morning, the Friends, a fine vessel, belonging to Ilfracombe, was totally lost on the Ceyfen Sands, in Carmarthen Bay. The captain, his wife, and the whole of the craw were drowned. The ship's papers were picked up at a subsequent hour near the harbour of Pembry. The body of a female, supposed to be that of the captain's wife, was also picked up near the same place, as well as a great deal of the wreck. None of the other bodies have been found. The Briton steam-tug parted from her moorings, and ,sank near the harbour. TEN FITZWALTER BARONT.—Sir Brook William Bridges, of Goodnestone Park, has succeeded to the ancient and honourable titles of the house of Fitzwalter. The title was granted to the ancestors of the present noble lord by Edward 1., whose reign commenced in 1272. Lord Fitzwalter has lately been making exten sive alterations at his princely scat at Goodnestone, and the whole pile is undergoing reparation and improve ment. His Lordship has renovated the 'parish church, and beautified the interior with coloured and painted glass windows, new seats, &e.—Maidstone Gazette. We have much pleasure in stating{ that through the indefatigable exertions of his solicitor, Sir Wm. H. El wes, Bart. is shortly to come into possession of the family e.tates of Elwes as heir at law. It is said the Duke of Devonshire is about to sell his Irish estates; and that his visit is connected with To luing the property.—Limerick Chronicle. I' IRE AT FOXEARTII-lIALL.—On Sunday night week, between ten and eleven o'clock, a haulm stack was maliciously set on fire, at Foxearth-hall, near Melford, in the occupation of Mr. Richard Aidham, farmer. For, tunately it was very soon discovered by some of the village people returning home, who saw the villain run ning from the spot, who no doubt had committed the act ; and prompt assistance being rendered, and the Melford engine quickly in attendance, the fire was con fined to the stack, which was within a short distance of the extensive farming buildings.—Essex Herald. COLLISION BETWEEN THE WILLIAM JOLLIPEE AND THE ANTWERP STEAMER.—On Wednesday night last, at 12 o'clock, the William Jolliffe left the harbour of Boulogne with the unusual freight of nearly 300 passengers. This large number was in consequence of its being the last day on which the steamers would run at the recent low fares of 4s. and 6s. instead of 10s. and 15s. The wind blew tremendously from the south-eastward, and the passage was stormy and tempestuous, but, nevertheless, she reached Gravesend in safety, but on approaching Northfleet, the river being full of craft, and the wind blowing tremendously down the river, she came in contact with a coal brig and the Antwerp out • ward-bound steamer, which dashed away a great portion of the Julliffe's paddl e -b ox and cooking room, causing the 1 greatest consternation among the passengers. The Jolliffe's next disaster was getting aground, where she remained some hours until got off by the aid of the Calais packet, and ulti mately she arrived in London about four o'clock on Thursday afternoon ; nearly four hours behind her time, since which she has been sent to Deptford fur the necessary repairs. TBETOTAL EXAGGERATION.—The gin drunk in England and Wales annually amounts to nearly 20,000,000 L sterling, a sum which would pay all the poor rates three times over.—Cork Southern Reporter. IMPORTANT TO GRAZIERS.—The saving between driving a sheep to the London market from Lincolnshire and conveying by steam-boat or railway, is proved to be no less than ten per cent.

The rate of exchange on Paris and Amsterdam was the same as on Friday last; on Antwerp, and Hamburgh and Frankfort, there was a trifling decline; and Trieste was firmer. The following is the official return of the exports of buillion from the port of London for the week ending Thursday last : Silver coin to Rotterdam, 8,000 ounces. (From The Sun of Last Night.) The transactions in Cotton were yesterday extentive at Liverpool, being 8,000 bales, of which exporters took 1,000 ; 600 Surat sold at 3d to 31d; 400 Egyptian, at 6id to 71d; 150 Pernam, at 54d to 6d; and the rest American, at 31d to 60 per lb.—The Railway Shares were quoted as follows: Birmingham and Gloucester, 114; Bristol and Gloucester, 57 ; Chester and Holyhead, 51. lls. 3d.; Eastern Counties, 12b ; Ditto, Perpetual, 2/. 14s. 4d.; Liverpool and Manches ter, New, 35 premium; London and Birmingham, 230; Ditto, Quarter Shares, 27i ; Lond on a n d B r i g ht on , 491 ; Manchester, Bolton, and Bury, 112; Midland Counties, 110; North Union, 134 ex-dividend; Sheffield and Manchester, 82} ; ,South-Eastern, 391; Ditto, 121; Trent "Valley, 91; Paris and Lyons, 21. 11s. 6d.; Ditto and Orleans, 38i ; Or leans, Tours, and Bordeaux, 2 1-10. The letter received from Messrs. Lizard', by the Commit tee of Spanish American Bondholders has excited a good deal of animadversion ; though, judging from previous oc currences, it cannot be said that it created any surprise. The positive refusal to afford the least:information only shows that the creditors here have nothing to hope for from the present agents, and in this feeling it is to be expected they will act by remonstrating with the Mexican Government. About 44,000 dollars have come over for the dividends by the West India steamers. The late accounts from Jamaica and the other West India islands are rather more favourable as to the weather, rain having fallen pretty generally. At Barbadoes there had been symptoms of the approach of what is generally called the hurricane season. Immigration seemed to be still going on more freely into Trinidad than the other islands, but the planters finding the sugar cultivation less profitable, and alarmed, as are all the West Indians, at the change of duty, were taking measures to reduce the duties. Jamaica was healthy and quiet, except as regards the agitation respecting the Sugar Bill. In Dominica tranquillity was wholly restored, and the militia are highly lauded for their prompti tude and discipline. It is stated that the census had less to do with the disturbances than was supposed, and that the leaders were advocates of a new system, a kind of St. Do mingo republic. The Stock Market begins to look up again, and there is a fair business doing. The declaration of M. Guizot has served to tranquillise, in some measure, the more timid holders, and the safe acconchement of her Majesty relieves any anxiety on that score. Consols have been at a rally from 98i to 98* The Government purchase of 10,0001. has been made at 99k. Ex chequer Bills have been marked 775. to 755. premium, being still rather depressed. Bank Stock is supported at 200. The New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. have rallied to 101 i a ; and the Reduced Three per Cents. to par.

The following further correspondence between the Committee of Spanish American bondholders and Messrs. Lizardi and Co., the Mexican agents, was circu lated in the City on Monday:— . _ " 13, Austinfriars, Aug. 2. " Gentlemen,—Your letter of the 27th ult., in reply to mine of the preceding day, was yesterday laid before the Committee of Spanish American bondholders, and I sin desired to express to you their extreme dissatis faction with its contents, and especially with your re fusal to furnish the Committee with any information as to the moneys in hand to meet the dividend now four months in arrear. " The Committee desire me to express in the strongest terms their unanimous opinion that the withholding of this information i 3 utterly unjustifiable, inasmuch as the proportion of duties assigned in Mexico for the pay ment of the dividends belongs to the bondholders, and they have consequently a right to know from time to time the amount of such moneys, and the mode of their appropriation. " The Committee need not dwell on the enormous sacrifices which the bondholders have heretofore made to meet the convenience of the Mexican Government. They had fully expected that in return for those con cessions the bondholders would have received from the Mexican Government and from yourselves that con sideration which the circumstances of the case called for and required. " The Committee trust, therefore, that you will, on further deliberation, furnish the particulars requested in my letters of April 23 and the 27th ult.—l am, &c., " G. R. ROBINSON, Chairman. " Messrs. F. de Lizardi and Co." " 26, Auatinfriars. Aug. 3. " Sir,—We have to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of y es t er d ay, a dd resse d t o us on the part of the Committee, of Spanish American bondholders. " As regards the first part of your communication, we have no other reply to make than to refer you to our letter of the 27th of July. " Respecting the latter part, wherein you allude to the concessions made by the bondholders, wo beg to assure you that we are fully sensible of their importance; and that the same are duly appreciated in the proper quar. ter is, we think, sufficiently proved by the great sacri fices made by the Mexican Government, in the midst of very trying financial difficulties, to meet its engagements with its creditors.—We remain, &C., " F. DE LIZARDI and CO., " Per pro. M. J. de Lizardi. " G. R. Robinson, Esq." y IIAYMARKET THEATRE.— Mr. Webster, the spi rited Lessee of this theatre, takes his benefit to-night.-- A gentleman who has done so much for the promotion of the sterling drama, needs no appeal to the glowing sympathies of the public to testify their approbation in his behalf. It is Mr. Webster 's singular merit and good fortune to have kept open the " little theatre in the Haymarket" upwards of 440 nights continuously ! That circumstance in itself speaks volumes in his praise as a good manager, and proves that the __public duly appreciate meritorious enterprise. May Webster's re ward be equal to his deserts ! The Duke of, Northumberland has presented a do nation of 504 to the General Theatrical irand. SUMMARY OF NEWS AND Vubttr Optttion. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN'. The French Chamber of Peers had voted the whole of the budgets, and the Chambers were to be prorogued on Monday. The Paris papers contain little news, and are chiefly occu pied with the Pritchard affair and the Morocco war. Ex tracts from them will be found in another column. The ultimatum sent to the Emperor of Morocco was not fully ac cepted ; hostilities, however, had not followed immediately, but a second ultimatum had been sent, an answer to which was required by the Ist of August, failing which, the Prince tie Joinville was to commence operations along the whole coast of Morocco.

LAW AND POLXCD. The Middlesex Sessions commenced at Hicks's Hall on Monday. The calendar contains the names of fifty-four pri soners for trial, this ty-eight of whom were indicted fur felony, and sixteen .for assaults and misdemeanours, none of which are of a very serious nature. Elizabeth Williams, aged 46, was indicted for stealing a drinking-glass, value 10d., the property of Mr. Thomas Olney, landlord of the Silver Cup, Cromer-street, Gray's Inn-road, on the 31st of July. Mr. Olney identified the glass as his property, and said he could not be mistaken with regard to it, as it was marked with the words, "stolen from the Silver Cup." The Chairman said it was a curious mark, but re marked that it would be an exceedingly good plan for all licensed victuallers to adopt. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. Sentence—Three months' imprisonment. Mary Smith, aged 19, Jane Driscoll, aged 20, and Sarah Hodges, aged 18, were indicted charging them with stealing fourteen trays, value 155., the property of George Furby.

Guildford, Tuesday, August 6. CIVIL SIDE. (Before Mr. Baron PARKE and a Special Jury.) THE BLOODSTONE CASE—SECOND DAY. HERBERT V. D AY. William Crook examined—l live at Apperley, about two miles from Walton-hill. In 1848 I went to Mr. Newman's to perform an operation upon a colt belonging to him. I had seen the same colt in the summer of that year. He had a very pretty head, and was rather, thick set and " cobby." This colt had a white stripe down the face, and more white about the heels. After I per formed the operation the colt was taken ill, and I did not see him any more. Cross• examined—No money has been offered me by Newman. He did not say that he would give me 100/. if I would swear that I operated upon the colt. I did not say it was a bad job, and I would have nothing to do with it. I did say I would have nothing to do with it. because it might expose my profession.—(Laughter.) They did not offer me money to prove that the colt died after the operation. lam not the Mr. Crook of Coal house, Apporley—(the person referred to in yesterday's evidence). He is a relation to me, and. is a licensed dealer in horses. I don't know that he has bred a colt within the last ten years. He may have had three or four brood mares within the last three years. I know a gentleman named Walker very well. There was a per son named Srnellcomb, but I did not say, in the presence of those persons, that I had been offered 1001. to swear that I cut the Beiram colt, and that it died under the operation. And I did not say either, that it was a black job, and I would have nothing to do with it, as it would ail come out. Re-examined—l did not wish it to be known that the colt I had operated upon had died, as it might have hurt my business. Mr. John Noble Partridge—l am a coal-merchant at Cheltenham, and in 1841 I lived near Mr. Newman, at Walton, and I remember his chesnut blood-mare having a foal in 1841. It was a very pretty colt, had a small head, white mark on the face, and two white heels behind. I remember the same mare having another foal in 1842. It was in the spring of the year; April or May, I believe. The colt Bloodstone is the same colt, if ever I s iw him. Baron PARKE—What do you mean by that ; it is an odd expression. Mr. PLATT—It may be very true, my Lord. Witness—l swear that Bloodstone is the same colt. He had a largish head, a white mark on the forehead, and one white heel behind. By Mr. PLATT I have seen other colts upon Mr. Newman's farm. I was not present when the second foal was dropped. Robert Shorter-4 am an ostler at the Royal Hotel, Cheltenham, and am acquainted with Mr. Newman. In 1841 I had a half•bred colt at Walton. It died about Christmas in that year. I remember the thorough-bred mare having a colt in 1841. He had a very neat head, rather small inclined, and cobby. The same mare had a second colt in 1842, and this one was much larger and lengthier, and when it was five months old was inclined to be as big as the other. A colt, very much like him, stopped at my house on the way to Jones's, to be trained, but I did not recognise him as the same colt. I observed that he had capped hocks, and looked at him particu larly, and I am sure the horse Bloodstone is the same. By Mr. PLATT—I cannot swear it is the same colt I saw in the paddock at Mr. Newman's. Re-examined—He was very much like him, but I cannot swear he was the same colt. Edmund Jones—l live at Rockley-house, near Marl borough, and have been a public-trainer of race-horses for many years. I saw Mr. J. Newman at Tewkesbury Races in 1843, and he spoke to me about a colt he had at Walton, and I went to see him the next day and exa mined him. He was very plain-headed, and had large ears, but had length, and some racing qualities. I saw that he was inclined for curbs, and that his hocks were capped. He had a small white diamond-shaped mark on his forehead, and one white heel behind. The same horse was brought to me to train, and he remained with me until he went to run at Ascot, but before this I heard _ _ _ Mr. Herbert had bought him, and on the 19th of May he was transferred to Mr. Herbert's account. I saw the colt run at Ascot in the name of Bloodstone for the New Stakes. A filly named Carissima met with an accident during the race, and was thrown out, but I do not think any of the field had a chance to beat Bloodstone, and he came in several lengths a-head. I did not examine the colt's mouth until after Ascot Races, but I do not pretend to be able to tell the age of a horse by examining his mouth; but he appeared like;all the other two-year-olds that were under my charge, and there was nothing to in duce me to believe that he was other than a two-years old. I saw the mare Rornaike, and she was pointed out to me as the mare that had run against a mare of my own named Susannah. She ran fur the Guy Stakes. The mare that run against mine was a large chesnut mare similar to the one I saw at Mr. Newman's, but I cannot swear it was the same mare. Cross-examined—Race-horses are generally handled when they are yearlings. Whether a race-horse should be gelded depended a good deal upon the character of the animal. There were some very good geldings. I have bought a good many horses, but I know nothing about their inouths. I don't know when horses lose their sucking teeth, but I can guess to five years. I know the difference between five and six years old. The persons who send horses to me are respectable men, and it is not my business to look at their teeth. When I first saw the colt, I told Mr. Newman that he was a horse of power, and he sent him to me on the 28th August, 1833. 1 looked in the horse's mouth after the race at Ascot, and, according to the best of my belief, it was not a three years old mouth. I could tell the age of a horse cer tainly better by his mouth than his tail.—(Laughter.) The colt is now in my keeping. Application was made to me to show the colt, and I refused to do so. Re-examined—The horse was examined on the day of the races, and the day after; he was also examined on the third. I told Mr. Day the horse should be at his disposal whenever he wanted to see him. , William Lovesey—l live near Walton, and occasion ally went to Mr. Newman's, and remember seeing a chesnut mare there that was called Romaike in the spring of 1841. At that time she had a chesnut colt, with a remarkably pretty head, but it was too small for a race-horse. The same mare had a second colt in the following year. He had a large head, with a white spot on the forehead, and one white heel, and was much more like a racer than the other. Bloodstone is the second colt that I have referred to. Cross-examined—l am related to the Newmans. Richard Newman is my cousin. I had no bets on the race that Bloodstone won. I have kept race-horses, but I did not run a horse at Hungerford races which was afterwards disqualified after it had run. I have been in the army, and am now living on my property. I have bought several horses, and I generally looked in their mouths to ascertain their age. I know nothing of a horse's age until after he is four or five years old, and before that age I could not form any opinion. I do not know when a colt sheds his sucking teeth, but I should say that the permanent teeth present a very different appearance from the milk teeth. William Brunsdon—l am a farmer, and live at a place called Deerhurst, near Walton, and have been acquainted with the Newman family for several years, and frequently was at his place. I knew the blood mare Romaike, and remember her having a colt in 1841. The witness described the Beiram colt in the same terms as the former witness.) He also described the second colt represented to be the horse Bloodstone, and said that he had that day seen the same colt at Guildford. Cross-examined—l don't know much about horses, but I can tell a horse from a handsaw. ---(Laughter.) I have bought and sold horses, and I always look in the horse's mouth when I buy. I can tell a four. year old horse, but I know nothing of their mouths before that age. I have had several colts, but I never looked at their teeth. I know that they do shed their teeth, but I cannot tell at what periods. By the Jury—l don't know what became of the first colt, but I heard that it died from an operation. John White proved that he saw the blood mare and the two colts at Mr. Newman's, and he gave a similar description of them to that of the last witness, Cross-examined—Witness saw several colts at Wal ton, both in 1842 and 1843. The Newmans breed horses occasionally. Witness was positive that the white mark on the forehead of the first colt went down one side of the face, and I am positive it had one white heel behind, and I believe it had two. I think the second colt also had a star on its forehead. I was not at all interested in these colts, and had no reason for taking particular notice of them. I don't know much about horses, but I can tell a horse from a mare.—(Laughter.) Re-examined.—l am sure the horse I have seen at Guildford is not the first colt that was with the mare. Watton, the driver of a fly, deposed that he saw a chesnut mare and a colt at Mr. Hicks's, and he remarked that the mare had a very long tail, and that the colt had a white mark down the face, and two white heels. He saw a second foal with the mare, in the opening of 1842, and he had seen the same colt and mare at Guild ford. He was sure it was not the first colt that that was shown to him at Guildford. Cross-examined—Had been among horses all his life, but could not tell the age of a colt by its mouth, nor what teeth'it had when it was two years old. My mas ter has bought some hundreds of horses, and I havo looked into the mouths of a good many of them, but I am no judge. I know nothing about the age from looking, andonlydalsofrom curiosity.—(Laughter.) I cannot tell anything about the age of a horse by looking in its mouth. William Taylor, a farmer and coal-dealer, residing near Walton, gave similar testimony to the former witnesses relative to the two colts being at Newman's farm in 1841 and 1842. He also said that the horse at Guildford was marked in the same way as the second cult, but he could not swear positively that it was the same horse, although, according to the best of his belief it was. Margaret Hopkins proved that she went to work at Mr. Newman's, and remembered seeing the colt in 1841, and remarked that it had a very pretty little head. She also saw the second foal in 1842, and she gave a similar description of it to the other witnesses, and expressed her opinion that Bloodstone was the same colt. John Hawkins deposed to seeing the mare and the colts, and also stated that he had frequently heard it remarked of the first colt that he would make a good one to drink out of a jug, as he had such a small nose. He expressed his opinion that the horse now in Guildford was the colt that he first saw in 1842, with its dam, at Mr. Newman's. William Taylor, a butcher in the neighbourhood of Walton, gave similar testimony. Patience Kitling was called to speak to the same f ac t s , but she stated that she saw nothing of the mare and the second foal in 1843. Cross-examined — Is sure she did not see the mare and foal in 1843. The witness was evidently confused, and she at length explained that she saw the same ani mals up to last Christmas. The witness was cross examined at some length ; and she several times altered the dates of the different transactions which she pro fes•ed to speak to, but she persisted in saying that the mare and the horse she had been shown at Guildford, were the same animals she had seen in the paddock. Mr. Joseph Pratt, a coach proprietor, driving upon the road, past Mr. Newman's paddock, also spoke to seeing the mare and the two foals, but he could not identify the horse at Guildford, known as Blocdstone, as one of those colts. Mr. Davis deposed that he had seen the mare and the colts, and he expressed his opinion that Bloodstone was the colt brought to Mr. Newman's in 1842. Cross-examined—Witness has bought several mares, and, of course, he always looks in their mouths for fear he should buy an old one for a young one ,—(Laughter.) Does not know the appear a nce of th e mouth of a three year old, because he does not buy them. Thinks he could tell when a horse was under three years old ; but over three, he would have a full mouth. By the COURT—A horse has not so many teeth when he is under three years old, as when be is over that age. Cross-examination continued—l fe did not touch the horse that was shown him at Guildford. Did not look in his mouth, but it was not because Mr. Newman told him not to do so. Mr. IV. Coleman—l am a veterinary surgeon, end have been in business for twenty years. I carry on busi ness at Cheam, in Surrey. In my judgment the appear ance of the mouth of a two or three-year old is not an infallible rule to ascertain the age, hut I think you C Bll generally tell the age. It is sufficient to decide between an early two year-old and a late three year-old colt.' I t f . an early two year-old colt was taken ca r e o f, an d f e d wit h cow's milk and corn, as well as bring suckled by its den; it would make a consideral)le difference in its growth and general appearance. There was an appearance of lace ration in the gums where the tushes would be expected. The training, or the manner in which a horse was bitted, would make a great difference in the appearance of the colt's mouth, and ke-ping the bit in the mouth would b ° likely to remove the temporary teeth much earlier. I n , my opinion the horse now in Guildford is thirty months old, and if I had been called upon to examine him pre f,ssionally, I should have given a certificate to thet *fleet Cross-examined--I was at the last Epsom races when Running Rein won the Derby. I don't know whether I gelded a colt by Saddler out of Mab. but possibly I might. I am not aware that Running Rain wait jer cribed as a colt by Saddler out of Mab. It was so de s ; cribed, but I know nothing about it ; but I know that the horse that did run was an entire horse. I (lid not give any information to the stewards, because. I knew nothing of the matter. I castrated a bay colt for Mr. Goodman, or Mr. Levi Goodman. Mr. Pt.arr—Or Mr. Goodman Levi, for I believe he goes by all these names. Witness—He may. for what I know. Cross-examination continued—l don't think I knew o f a horse named Gladiator, but I may have seen him at Epsom. If I had to give a certificate of the ag e of Bloodstone, I should say he was thirty months old. Re-examined—l had nothing to do with the races al Epsom, or with the pedigree of the horse described as by' the Saddler out of Mab. Mr. Brown, veterinary surgeon at Warwick,confirme d the evidence given by the last witness relative to the effect the biting a young horse would be likely to hav e unon the teeth. He said that ha examined the ho le Bloodstone at Rockley, and he considered he was a tw o ' year old, and according to racing rule he would be con" sidered a two•year old in January last. I have exa mined the mouth of Old England, the second horse and, although his teeth are not so forward as those 0 ' Bloodstone, I have no doubt they were both two-yes t olds. Old England is certainly a two-year old. Cross-examined—l don't think there is any certal,n rule to tell the age of such young horses. If a horse Is entered to run as a two-year old, I consider he is a tw°' year old—especially if he belongs to a respectable person' That is not the reason why I say that Bloodstone is! two-Year old. Bloodstone has got four permanent tsetuo but I do not think that is a proof that he is a three-yen t old horse. Mr. Bradshaw deposed that he was a veterinary o r ' geon, and carried on business at Stratford-upon•Av° ll. He saw Bloodstone run the race at Ascot, and 1 1 examined him on the 21st or 22d June. He did n ° , consider the mouth of a horse a certain criterion of are, but in his opinion this horse was a two-year o lo r The. mouth of a race-horse developes itself much sonn e t than that of another horse, on account of the mode feeding and sweating them. H e h a d exam ined I31 0 ° c e 1 :1 stone and Old England at Guildford, and was satisn., they were both two years old, but Bloodstone was e lf weeks forwarder than Old England. Cross-examined—Bloodstone has not got any of § molar teeth. If a horse is foaled in April or MaY h i o racing age is calculated from the January preceding , s 5 that he should consider Bloodstone to be now two yea r old and a little more, and he would be considered a t wtr year old until January, 1845. Baron PARKE—The issue is whether he was foaled i° 1842. Any part of the year will do. Mr. PLATT—Exactly so, my Lord. Mr. W. W. Bryan, anoth e r v e terinary surgeon, Guild, posed that he examined Bloodstone yesterday at Gtl" 0 ford, and, according to the best of his judgment, he w f two years old. lie did not consider the appearanc e :d the mouth a certain proof of the age of a horse, $ 3 l l witness had been mistaken on some occasions regard to the ages of horses he had examined. Cross-examined—He was of opinion that a he r being well fed would cause his teeth to grow faster. This was the case for the plaintiff. a h e Mr. PLATT then rose to address the jury, an, t he observed that, having at length got to the end or the plaintiff's case, it was his duty to lay before then' is y evidence upon which the defendant relied, to , r s' lt re at them that the re a l f ac t s o f th e case were very d! l '; e a tiff. to those that had be en a ll ege d on b e h a lf of the DA — 5 .. The jury, no doubt, perfectly understo o d th a t th e tin' Lion at issue was whether the horse now called Bloodsr ° l was foaled in 1842, and that his dam was Romaike , his sire Bubastes, and, although many of the pinint a l witnesses had boldly sworn that he was the same ann". o he had no doubt that he should be able to them conclusive evidence that in truth he was not ea It would be the duty of the jury to look at all the e' tb cumstances of the case and see on which side the rr n ee really was. He submitted that the plaintiff's evide ll ,, was very unconclusive, and he said it was very Ot tr o . ordinary that veterinary surgeons should have been r duced from distant parts of the c ountry, when a bun p r , skilful men, who could h ave no i n t erest i n the in' t .„` - e . might have been found in Lond on , or i n this irri' e diate neighbourhood, who co u ld h ave p rove d the b e ige to be a two year.old horse if he really were s°. ja would now state the history of the transaction. 1840, the mare Romaike was put to Lord Ese te b i s Beiram, end in due time produced a foal, and while t be foal was at her foot she was sent to Mr. Hicks's to t he put to Bubastes, and it would then app e ar that erer fraudulent proceedings commenced, for the next ) s , the same mare, which was a thorough bred fine rn ni h a was sent in a false name to a gentleman named ", to son, being represented as a half-bred m a re, to be po• a horse called Liverpool, and while in the possessionw that gentleman, she was delivered of the real ButuBso. colt. The jury had seen the conduct of Richard Newn i e , with regard to those letters that had been prodtlee d bt e ferring to this transaction, and he put it to them we r e ther they could doubt that he was not perfectly a"gr, that some improper transaction was going on. ( Platt then read an extract from a letter written be Richard Newman in the name of Crook, in whieho stated that the mare was in foal by Bubastes, and th to as she was only half-bred, and his object was mereli.ve breed a steeple-chaser or hunter, he should not PO more than 101. for putting her to the horse Liverplit, In March, 1842, the mare Romaike was sent to '' o ,l Gibson's as a half-bred mare, and at this time she d i; the mange, and was in very bad condition; an t he would be important for the jury to remembe r , t he evidence given by John Newman that h e had ha e rf mange in his stable, which was a catching dis or droe in confirmation of the assertion that this was the 10 mare, although all the witnesses had positively sworn, n a r o, she never was at Mr. Gibson's. On the 17th of l o lti 1842, the mare dropped the real Bubastes t o which was a weakly, small, miserable animal, an d it' this one no doubt the story told by the ' v ia nesses about the castration affair referred. He Alio prove those facts beyond the possibility of d ou bt, 1111( should also show that Richard Newman a pplied to ',, - flicks to give him a receipt as for a mare covers ;O, 1841, when the occurrence really to o k pl ace in l or ar which evidently showed that he intended to Inalte, s . O he animal a year younger than it really was . . Mr. n i ft y was aware that such a false receipt could only b e re' quired for some dishonest purpose, and he therefore.or fused to give it. The Beiram colt was at that time e' ci i i ted old, and if he had succeeded in getting the falsely o at receipt it would have been evidence to show that h e c es , two-years-old instead of three at the period of the m e nd The whole of the proceedings were very suipicious. o .4 there was strong reason to believe that Bloodston e bo a in reality the Beiram three-year. old colt. It Wa s 1 ,4 it however, fee the defendant to p rove th a t fact, a t t he was enough forhina to show that Bloodst o ne was I ° s fo r Bubastes colt foaled in 1842. Th e p r i nc ip a l witness e at ter the plaintiff were all deeply interested in the ° o at' —the horse had been enteral for stakes arnc t ) ti cl# , jug to between t we lv e and thirt een th ou sand r o atit and they, of course, felt a strong desire to nialt: the their case, and this would probably account fed the manner in which they had given their evidence; ° let ter. conduct of Richard Newman with regard to th e which it was quite clear had been written by WT.; f horse haying been entered for certain races 1 ,1 ; .e , 0 0 3 J would be placed in the Racing Calendar, and it " a paar i necessary that some caution should be used with. ":"Ne to him; and, accordingly, in his first race for tna o be Stakes at Ascot, Mr. Newman felt that if he L ic , ° l . e fore would excite attention and inquiry, and he tu_' - ‘ ,, e , in gave Bell, his jockey, instructions to lose the rl A s .! order, no doubt, that he might be regularly enter two year old ; and having been beaten it was wool no inquiry would be made about his ace, but . 1 1 w are: be acknowledged as a two year old horse _ ra yon; Immediately after the race eminent veterinary. s" c S'lt t° were called in, and they at once pronounced be a three year old horse, and they would as: h 0 0Y day repeat that opinion, not accompanied vic,:;.to.ioll4 evasion or doubt, but positively an d c o an- , e l as they did at first. The Learned. details then went on to state other facts, which will in the evidence, and concluded by confident that the jury would award the t n ci , ex preS g Sl a n k g es to t . l1; defendant, who was the proprietor of Old I'. 3 l .A_ d 8100 second horse, and that they would be sati stone was not the horse he was represented t0 ,i. 0. . t The following witnesses were then examin e d jive it '' a Mr. Henry Hicks, examined by Mr. Sur o , B hu i Atherley, near Cheltenham.
