SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—A general impression seems to pervade the public mind, and especially that portion of the community most conversant with the administra tion of the justice of the country, that the time has arrived for the abolition of Grand Juries. The Grand Jury of the last session of the Central Criminal Court made a presentment to this effect on appearing in Court at the termination of their duties, for the purpose of being formally dis charged. With the opinion thus communicated, the presiding Judge expressed his concurrence. The Grand Jury of Surrey made a similar representation this morning, on appearing in Court with their last bills. The views expressed by the latter body were expressed in the following terms : "It is the opinion of the Grand Jury, in the present improved mode of administering the justice of the coun try, that the institution of a Grand Jury, though at the time of its introduction of great value, is now not only unnecessary, but actu illy injurious to the public interests. - " First : Because the careful investigation of the cases by the committing magistrates, assisted by professional men, who (where the cases are heavy) appear on the part of the prosecution, and for the defence of the pri soner, has already sifted the evidence ; thus rendering another intermediate inquiry wholly unnecessary. " Secondly : The opportunity afforded by the inter vention of a Grand Jury between committal and trial for tampering with the witnesses, often causes the evidence given before the Grand Jury to differ from that given by the witnesses before the magistrates. It is thus frequently changed both in its terms and ten dency. The bill is, consequently, ignored through a deficiency of evidence ; the operation of the law is obstructed ; and the guilty party escapes by means of the very institution which is designed to aid in the administration of justice. " Thirdly: The province of the Grand Jury is often abused. Bills are preferred, and accusations made, the grounds of which have not undergone previous investi gation by magistrates. Such proceedings are often prompted by an expectation of extorting money from the parties accused, or to subject them to expense and annoy ance for the purposes of revenge. " For these reasons the Grand Jury consider their functions as no longer beneficial; that they are often in jurious, and might be safely dispensed with." The Chairman of the bench expressed, in strong terms, an opinion, that the change alluded to is worthy the consideration both of the Legislature and the Government ; especially as similar views had been recently expressed by other grand juries. The institution of a public prosecutor—to whom, or to his deputies, the evidence in each case should be submitted previously to trial, and by whom the pro ceedings should be instituted and the prosecution car ried on—would be a salutary substitute for the Grand Jury. The classes out of which the Grand Juries are now taken might be most beneficially associated with their fellow-citizens from whom the Petit Juries are selected. Thus the intellectual elements of the latter would be improved, and the public administra tion of justice in the Criminal Courts of the country raised in character and improved in efficiency. STANDARD.—The buildings designed for a col lege for the cultivation of " modern languages and literature" have just been completed at Oxford, and a prospectus of the plan and design of the proposed in stitution has been issued. We have not been so fortunate as to see a copy of this prospectus, which is made the subject of unfriendly cri ticism by the Times ; but we think that in the cri tique itself of our conte:nporary we find proof that our contemporary is unjust. The principal ground of the Times' complaint is, that " A rule is laid down entirely prohibiting all entrance upon the subject of religion in the academical study of these [the modern] languages. Religion appears to be considered—upon that easy liberal theory which has severed the connection between religion and know ledge in all other branches—to have nothing to do with modern literature ; and accordingly an ex press rule is inserted, involving very clearly this principle." Now surely there is here a very un fair inference drawn from a rule which plainly understood, appears to be unexceptionable. The " College of Modern Languages and Literature" is not a substitute for, but an auxiliary to, the estab lished system of University education, of which it will not be 'disputed that it is properly careful of the reli gious instruction of the young men subjected to it. There is not, we are happy to say, one college or hall in Oxford in which a sound Scriptural education, in the pure doctrines of the Church .of England, is not a principal, we may with gratification say, the principal object of instruc tion in the undergraduate course. At Oxford, therefore, no merely auxiliary instruction can be charged with effecting, that divorce between learn ing and religion which the Times seems to appre hend.. The young men will go to the Col lege of Modern Languages and Literature in structed, and (as far as human teaching can confirm them) confirmed Protestant Christians, to learn, it may be the French, German, Italian, Spanish, modern Greek, or whatever other modern language may be there taught, and which they may wish to learn, just as they might go to a school of riding or fencing, or swimming or music, not to receive religious instruction, or to learn to slight religion, but to acquire an accomplishment with which properly doctrinal religion has no con cern. Every Christian, no doubt, feels the force of the apostolic injunction, that " whatever we do, all must be done to the . glory of the Creator"— but this contemplates encLs, not details, and the best men daily do a hundred things with which they would deem it a fearful irreverence to associate a direct allusion to the truths of religion. Now to us it appears, that between the philology of modern 'languages and religious truth there is no ne cessary connexion, any more than there is between religious truth and riding the great horse, driving, swimming, or fiddling. There is, therefore, no impro priety in excluding reheious discussion from a strict course of philological study, which, let it be constantly remembered, is pursued concurrently with a separate course of careful religious study, and in subordina tion to it. The Times, indeed, seems to feel that the merely philological course of study proposed in the College of "Modern Languages and Literature" will not support its censure ; and therefore, by an artifice, which we cannot help regarding as an unworthy one, tries to enlarge the sphere of study at tha new college ,to the whole field of letters. " The whole field of modern literature, it must he .observed, is a pretty wide ground entirely to disconnect with religion in this way; and the misfortune is, too, that it does not stop with itself, but dra gs other departments into the same scrape." Tis is a poor fallacy. The College for the Cultiva tion of Modern Languages and Literature, plainly intends no more than such cultivation as is already bestowed upon classical literature ; from which latter cultivation it will, we presume, be admitted, religious discussion is and ought to be excluded, for though our contemporary may not understand the distinction, our Universities have always sepa rated religious and profane literature as anxiously in their study, as they have been careful to unite .them in the student. It is indeed the unhappy com bination of these two naturally distinct, and in value immeasurably unequal objects of study, in one and the same pursuit, which in early times paganised Christi anity into Romanisrn. May we not fear that the Platoni cism male fashionable by the late eccentric Mr. Cole ridge, and mixed with religion by his followers, is exercising through the Tractarians a like injurious in fluence upon Protestantism ? They surely are mistaken who think that the sun of truth can be assisted by such dim tapers as even the brightest lights of human genius. Who would illustrate the Pentateuch by Herodotus and Lucretius, the Psalter by Pindar and Horace, and the Prophets and the New Testament by Plato and Cicero? As witnesses to historical facts, the writers of Greece and Rome are use ful helps to religious education, but to allow them to mix as teachers-to make their dogmata the topics of "religious discussion," were a grievous sin. The case of classical education,. then, clearly proves the possibility, and ,in particular instances the necessity, of separating many branches of study from sinintermixture with " religious discussion ;" and the onl- JgUesticn that can arise is, whether "modern lan uages, and lit e r a t ure " oug ht no t t o b e so separa t e d? }or ourselves we have no doubt upon the point. IVe know of no Single book in any modern language which could properly be made the textbook ofreligious instruc tion formeinbers of the United:Church of England and Ireland. There are many eXcellent theological books in the French language, from De Mornai to D'Au bigne, with which we, perhaps, might not quarrel, but we should be sloW to recommend the m t o an Oxford college. As to the other languageS of' continental Europe, they are, as respects theology, a perfect blank to the English Protestant, except the crazy literature of Germany, which , with its rationalism on one side, and its platoniiism on the other, and its cold-hearted infidelity, the foundation of both, is worse than a blank—it is a labyrinth of traps and pitfalls. There is, therefore, an utter want of books in the m o d ern languages to supply topics of religious discus s i on ; and if books were forthcoming, where are the teachers ? The use of a college of modern lan gtiages is to teach men, not merely to read modern languages, but to write those languages and to speak them. • • • ATTEMPTED INCENDIARISM AT KESGIt4.VE • terday (Monday), about four o'clock hi the • afternbon, intelli gence of dfire at Kesgrave Heath; the ' p ro perty of B.

The plaintiffs in this case are merchants in Liverpool, and the defendant is the collector of Customs in that port. The plaintiffs had imported a cargo of corn into Liverpool by the ship David and John, from Spain. The new corn-law, which received the Royal assent on Friday, 29th April preceding, repealed the corn-law of 9 Geo. IV., and at the same time enacted that the duties to be levied on corn should be based upon the averages to be returned on each Thursday. The John and David arrived in Liverpool during the five days between the 29th April and the first Thursday after the passing of the Act, when the plaintiffs contended the ports were open, and no duties could be levied. The de fendant, however, contended that the corn was liable to duty, refused to suffer it to be landed, except in bond, where it re mained for two months, and was then released on payment of duty. The plaintiffs brought this action to recover damages for loss sustained by this detention of the corn by the collector of Customs at Liverpool. As there was no dis pute as to the facts of the case, a special verdict had been taken, subject to the opinion of this Court, as to the construc tion to be put upon the Act of Parliament. The COURT, having heard Mr. Erie for the plaintiff, and the Solicitor-General for the defendant, took time to consider their judgment. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. _ _ William Cloug - le, master of the brig Bolden, of Shields, was summoned to answer the complaint of John Whit ing, fur having unlawfully detained him a month longer than necessary for the discharge of the cargo of that brig in the port of London. The question which came on a few days ago, before Sir Peter Laurie, as to un reasonable delay. excited a great deal of interest, particularly as the Lord Mayor had expressed much in dignation at the unpardonable treatment of the poor families of the crews of the colliers, resulting from the prodigiously long detention of the vessels in the port of London. Alderman Humphery was at the time sitting with the Lord Mayor, in consequence of some serious cases of smuggling for adjudication, on which the presence of two magistrates was necessary. The complainant stated that he had signed articles of agreement to work the vessel from Hartlepool to Lon don and back, at 4/. the voyage ; but he had no notion when he signed that he would be detained beyond the three market days allowed by the Act of Parliament ; but twenty market days had elapsed since the arrival of the brig, and no money had been distributed amongst the crew, and therefore their wives and children were in a state of destitution, and, in some instances, they must be obliged to appeal to the cold humanity of the unions. The LORD MAYOR—On what day did the vessel arrive in the port of London ? Complainant—Upon the 13th of April. The LORD MAYOR—Why, Captain Clough, has not the cargo been sold? The defendant said it had been sold on Friday. It was not, he believed, in his power to oblige the factor, to whom it was consigned, to sell. The inconvenience experienced by the delay of vessels pressed heavily upon the captain, as well as upon the men, but blame did not attach to the former any more than to the latter. The complainant (backed by several other men in similar circumstances) said it happened that the captains took good care of themselves, for they had a claim of so much per ton upon the owners for any delay which took place beyond the three first market days, while the men were compelled to wait until the factors chose to sell the coals, without receiving the smallest remuneration. The LORD MAYOR—As I read the Act of Parliament, the men must not be detained beyond a reasonable time. Now seven weeks I consider to be must unreasonable. If the poor men who are complaining of this oppressive curse supposed that such detention were contemplated, they would not have engaged to work the vessel. They were morally, and in my opinion legally, entitled to extra pay for this delay, which interferes so lamentably with their ability to support their families. The captains, by holding over the cargoes, enhance the price of coal to the public, and according to the arguments used by the defendant they may delay in the port of London for six months, and avravate beyond endurance the suffering of the crew with impunity. The conduct of the de fondant in this case, and the agreement drawn up by him, are not in accordance with the spirit of the Act of Parliament. Alderman HUMPHERY—The public are sufferers by such conduct to the amount of seven or eight shillings per ton more than they ought to be charged, a matter which it would be strange to overlook when such a noise is made about the duty of fourpence a ton upon the article. My advice to the defendant is that he pay his crew for a vova,ge and a-half at any rate. The complainant said he would be satisfied with that arrangement. Since the vessel had come into port another vessel had made two voyages. Here one of the crew said that a vessel from Hartlepool had been ordered not to be cleared of its cargo until the coals should be sold at twenty-five shillings per ton, and that vessel had been in the port of London upwards of six weeks, and might, under such circumstances, be de layed a good deal longer. The Loan MAYOR then asked the defendant whether he was prepared to agree to the proposition to pay the man for a voyage and a half. If not, the law should certainly be put in force against him. The men were entitled by Act of Parliament to all reasonab'e informa tion, as to the duration of the ship's delay. The object appeared to be to exclude the public and the crews of those vessels from the advantages of the voyages ,- and the offence was the greater, as the Thames was crowded beyond all example with shipping. Alderman HUMPHERY—By holding back these cargoes, the additional penalty inflicted upon the public is to the extent of 40,0001. a-year. The LORD MAYOR—I shall require an answer from the defendant on Wednesday, as to his intentions with respect to remuneration to these poor men, whose fami lies must now be undergoing severe privations. The complainant and the crews of the several vessels most gratefully acknowledged the benevolent inter ference of the Lord Mayor, who evidently considered that the owner, the factor, and the captain, were all actively concerned in hindering the sale of coals, for the purpose of enhancing their price, and thus abridging the comforts of those who were daily undergoing some pri vation or other. _ _ _ Johan Eivart, the mate of the ship Alexander, from Rostock, was charged with having been on board that vessel, with the knowledge that she had stowed away amongst her cargo a large quantity of tobacco, made up into parcels, each of which weighed one pound. Two of the crew had been committed, a few days before, upon a similar charge. The mate was not brought up with the convicted defendants, because of the inconvenience likely to arise from capturing an officer so prominently engaged in the vessel. Captain Schrceder, the commander of the vessel, stated that he knew nothing whatever of the tobacco. In the course of the investigation it was stated by Mr. Davis, one of the Revenue officers, that two-thirds of the tobacco used in the metropolis were smuggled, and that the tobacco on board the Alexander was found amongst a quantity of rags, in which there happened to be extreme heat, and which would, if the detection had not been made, in all probability have ignited and consumed the ship. The LORD Mairog suggested the propriety of, in all cases, making the captain responsible. if instead of the infliction of a penalty, the captain was sent to prison fur a few months, smuggling would not flourish as was now the case. Captain Schroeder said the mate had gone three voyages with his vessel, and he had reason to be well satisfied with him and never suspected him, and could not at that moment suppose him capable of winking at such a shabby exhibition. It was stated that some of the steam-vessels had been fined forty times for conveying smuggled goods, and that 20,000 pounds weight of tobacco had been lately cleared out 'of the Custom-house in Dutch cheeses. The LORD MAYOR and Alderman HUMPEERY then declared the defendant to be guilty, and fined him 1001. Mr. Cutler, one of the officers of the Watermen's Company, applied to the Lord Mayor for a summons for John Williamson, the father of the boy who took on board his boat the children who were lost in the Thames. The LORD MAYOR said he was glad to find that the Company was about to adopt a proper course. Mr. Cutler said his object was to have the father made answerable fur having allowed his son to work his skiff on the 19th instant, on account of which three children were drowned, without having taken out a license from the Waterman's Company. He also applied for a sum mons for George Scott, who was his apprentice, calling upon him to answer for having taken eight passengers on board his skiff, the skiff being licensed to carry no more than six passengers. The LORD MAYOR said that, by a little vigilance, the serious evil of crowding boats would bc effectually re medied. Mr. Cutler observed that on Sunday last the Thames was so crowded with vessels that the navigation was in a great measure blocked up, and the steamers, with great difficulty made any progress at all. His LORDSHIP issued the summonses in both cases, and appointed that the defendants should be directed to attend on Friday next. Captain Rowland, the Harbour Master, waited upon the Lord Mayor, as Conservator of the River Thames, and reported to his Lordship, that in the month of April, as he was employed in raising a wreck about a mile and a helf below Tilbury. he observed, on the 25th of that month, a ship with a signal of distress flying, towed down by a steamer; and believing that something was amiss, he manned his boat, ana proceeded to the vessel, which proved to be the John Woodall ; that he ascertained that the master was absent, and that the ship was on fire, and, after due examination, directed that she should be scuttled as the only means of extinguishing the fire. That after the vessel had been sunk in shal low water, near the bank, he succeeded in raising her by means of two steam-tugs ; and that if such course had not been followed the vessel would have been de stroyed. Captain Rowland stated to his Lordship that the navigation was thus cleared of what, if at once blown up would, in all probability, have been a very dangerous impediment. l'he LORD MAYOR expressed his gratification at the skill and success of Captain Row laud's experiment, and said he infinitely preferred the plan of raising wrecks to that of blowing them, as the latter mode was not only calculated to obstruct the navigation, but to do much mischief to the nets of the fishermen, who supported their families by the use of their nets. C ll L va E s ß ch K ar E g N ed W with ELL the Pa trid Carroll followin g savage assault upon Thomas Prince, a coach - maker , residing in Turnmill-street : The prosecutor appeared in Court with his head bound up ; he seemed - to be faint from loss of blood, and declared be was suffering great pain. It appeared from the evidence that, on the previous night, the pro gecutor and his father, being perfectly sober, were paising through Clarke's-buildings, Gray's Inn-road, '*hed they saw tliqpris-4ei lieWiig 4 imuan, iilia WAS screaming violently. The prosecutor, actuated by motives of humanity, interfered, and begged of the prisoner to desist; but the prisoner immediately knocked him down. He then ran into his house, which was hard by, and rushed out, in company with another man, armed with iron bars. Before the prosecutor recovered from the former blow, the prisoner, raising the bar, inflicted a deep and extensive wound on his head. The blow rendered him senseless, and he bled profusely from the wound. Connor, having been disarmed of the bar, seized a broom-stick, with which he struck the prostrate and insensible man on the arms and sides, until he was bruised all over, and his left arm powerless. Police constable 144 G came up some time after, and, with much difficulty, secured the prisoner. The prosecutor was removed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, where the wound, which is an inch and a half long, was dressed. Mr. BROUGHTON remanded the prisoner until the re suit of the injuries the prosecutor received should be as certained, as in the event of erysipelas occurring, the wound in the head might prove fatal. Thomas Bresnahan was charged with stealing a large quantity of lead, the property of the Commissioners of Woods and Forests. In order to complete the new line of communication between Oxford-street and llolborn, the Commissioners of Woods and Forests have purchased several houses in George's-street, Bloomsbury. On the roof of one of these houses the prisoner was seen ripping off the lead between 9 and 10 on the previous night.' The police hastened to the place—one of them, 140 E, got upon the roof, whilst the others were posted in the street below. As soon as the prisoner saw the constable on the roof, he immediately " gave chase;" the constable followed; at length the prisoner dipped into the roof, the con stable popped in after him ; the prisoner ran along the space between the roof and the ceiling, followed closely by his pursuer. At length the consta ble was alarmed by a crash, and on advancing a little perceived that the ceiling having given way, Bresnahan had partly fallen through, and having been caught be., tween the joists in falling, remained, like Mahomet's coffin, suspended in space. The painful position of the prisoner was much aggravated by the endeavours of his friends in the room below to pull him down, whilst the constable strove to keep him where he was. At length the police came up stairs, and the prisoner was secured. About a hundred-weight of lead was found piled on the roof, which had been recently cut from the gutter. The prisoner was remanded. William Hogg was charged with the following mis chievous conduct. The prisoner was standing by the window of Mr. Foxwell, a linen draper, residing at 26, Judd-street, at three o'clock on the previous day. The shopman de sired him to leave, but he struck him on the face, and then thrust his hand through a large pane of plate glass value V. 55., and damaged artificial flowers and ribbons on the inside to the value of 31. more. In default of paying the amount of damage done, the prisoner was committed to the House of Correction for two months. Laurence Summers, a smith, was charged with having been drunk and breaking five panes of glass, at the Cart and Horse public-house, the property of Mr. R. Higgins, the landlord. It appeared from the evidence, that on the previous day, at three o'clock the prisoner entered the house of the complain ant and called for drink, which, being in liquor, they refused to serve him with. A woman was making a noise at the bar ; the landlord attempted to put her out ; the prisoner inter fered, and was himself put out. He then went on the oppo site side of the way, and flung six brickbats at the window, five of which broke as many panes of glass. Police-constable 189 G partly corroborated the above tes timony, and said the Cart and Horse, which is in Turnmill abreet, was a quiet and respectable house. Mr. BROUGHTON fined the prisoner 155., or a month's im prisonment in the House of Correction. MARYLEBONE. A girl named Reynolds, alias Ellen Fitzpatrick, was placed before Mr. Rawlinson on the following charge:— Francis Cole Himbert, of the Hyde Park Hotel, said that the prisoner had entered his service about six weeks ago, representing that she was Ellen Fitzpatrick. She referred him to Mrs. Dymond, of 22, Frith-street, Soho square, for a character. Ile went there, and that lady told him that sh e h a d had a girl named Ellen Fitzpa trick, and could vouch for her honesty and sobriety. He upon these representations, and believing the prisoner to be the Ellen Fitzpatrick to whom Mrs. Dymond re ferred, took liar into his service. He had reason to be lieve that the prisoner, from the time she had entered his house, had committed robberies upon the different ladies upon whom she - waited. Unfortunately, however, he was not in a condition to prove either of those, but he had written to some of the aggrieved parties, and they had given instructions to their solicitors. What those instructions were he was not prepared to say. He wished therefore, merely to go into the question of the false character, and he would, therefore, call Dr. Dymond to prove that the prisoner had never been in his service. Dr. Dymond, 22, Frith-street, said that the prisoner was known to the real Ellen Fitzpatrick, but that her name was Reynolds, and she had never been a domestic in his house. The prisoner made a rambling defence, after which the worthy Magistrate said that she bad not even the excuse of a girl who, getting into work by means of a false character, was determined to make a good one by honesty, diligence, and sobriety. She, on the contrary, had from the house that she had been admitted to, Mr. Himbert'S, pillaged all who came near her, and he, there fore, felt it his duty to inflict the highest penalty the Act would allow, which was to pay 201., with 10s. costs, or go for three months' to the House of Correction. Mr, Himbert said that there were wages due to her to the amount of 11. 11s. 6d., and her box of clothes yet remained in his house. The prisoner directed that her sister, who was in Court, should receive them. John Thomas, a very gentleman in appearance, was placed before Mr. Rawlinson, on a charge of having committed an indecent assault upon the person of William Smith, who de scribed himself as a valet, residing at 19, Titchfield-street, Portland-place. The circumstances of the case prove that there are yet scoundrels who, undeterred by the fate of the notorious Stringer, levy contributions upon the timorous, by threats of preferring charges of.an unnatural character against them. Mr. RAWLINSON inquired the gentleman's address, but he stated that he could not, while resting under the odium of such a charge, think of giving it. The prosecutor was not in attendance, and it had been ascertained that he had given a false address at the station house. James Joy, a park-constable, said, that on the evening be fore he had been told by the man Smith to take the prisoner into custody for the offence as stated in the police, sheet. Prisoner—Did I not also tell you to take him also into custody? Witness—Yes, you did. Mr. RAWLINSON-Why don't you tell all the truth, Sir? Let me know all that passed. Witness—Yes, Sir. Then the prisoner said several times at the station-house he would give the man in charge. Wm. Wall, inspector of the park-constables, said that he also heard the prisoner give the other man in charge, which was not taken. He had been to the address given by the prosecutor, and had ascertained that he did not live there. The prisoner said—l am quite innocent of this charge. I was walking in the inner circle of the Regent's Park, and the man Smith came up and entered into conversation with me. After talking of one thing and another, he said at last, " What will you give me ?" I replied, "What do you mean ? are you miserable ?" He rejoined, " I am ; and if you will not give me something, I will charge you with having tried to commit an unnatural offence." I refused him money, and he then called the constable and gave me into custody. Mr. RAWLINSON said that he could not, for a moment, think of detaining him, and he was therefore discharged. The gentleman expressed his determination of tracing out the miscreant, and bringing him to punishment. WORSHIP-STREET. Monday a man named Thomas Patterson, and Eliza beth Patterson, his wife, were placed at the bar b e f ore Mr. Bingham, on the following charge of robbery and attempted murder, upon a young man named George Allen, a linen-glazer, residing in Monkwell-street, Fore street, Cripplegate. The prosecutor, whose face was a mass of cuts and contusions, and in other parts of his person bore mani fest evidences of severe ill-treatment, stated that as he was passing through Aldersgate-street, at eleven o'clock on the night of Sunday, the 19th inst., he was accosted by a young woman, with whom he ultimately went to numerous houses, and lastly- to a very wretched one, where he was attacked, robbed, and then wounded. The whole proceedings were of the lowest and fiercest cha racter. At last the prosecutor made a violent struggle, and succeeded in breaking away and running into Ar thur-street, where he met a policeman, and while telling him of the ferocious attack that had been made upon him, the two prisoners passed the end of the street, and were immediately pointed out by the prosecutor as two of the persons implicated. Henry Turpin, an officer, who searched the prisoners' house, deposed to finding the outer case of the watch and the prosecutor's money-bag there, and to the floor of the roam being in several places dyed with coagulated blood.—Both prisoners were fully committed to New gate for trial. Brown and Smith (officers) stated in the course of the examination that the female prisoner had belonged to a desperate gang, which had been routed out by the parish authorities from Granby-street, Waterloo-road, where they had located themselves, and afterwards distributed themselves in other part s of the metropolis. The male prisoner was stated to be very respectably connected, but had been discarded by his relatives in consequence of his marriage with the other prisoner. QUEEN-SQUARE. An old man, apparently 60 iears of age, named Digby, a tailor, carrying on business at No. 3, Queen-street, Chelsea, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Bond, charged with dis gusting conduct towards a little girl, ,the daughter of Mr. Fox, a painter and decorator. Mr. Fox, the defendant, who is a married man, and the fa ther of two young children, rented apartments in his house, 3, Queen-street, and carries on a lucrative trade. From in formation which he received from his wife respecting the de fendant's conduct towards his child, who is between seven and eight years of age, he was given into cuetody. Ann Fox, a pretty intelligent little girl, was then - brought into Court, and having been questioned by Mr. Bond, re specting truth and falsehood, of the nature of-which she ap peared to be aware, she was sworn. From her evidence, which is of course unfit for publication, it appeared that, the defendant was in the habit of presenting her with sweet meats, and had repeatedly taken the most indecent liberties with her. After the lapse of some time she told her'rnother. Miss Mary Moy, a young woman about eighteen' years of age, deposed to hearing some conversation between the de fendant and the child, who innocently asked him if such conduct was not wicked. She saw the defendant and the child in the water-closet together. - , The defendant, in answer to the charge, entered into a rambling statement respecting the sweetmeats, and denied that he took any liberties of an improper nature with the child. • Mr. BOND asked the prosecutor if he was desirous of send ing the case to the Sessions, as the punishment which the law gave him power to inflict upon the defendant was not commensurate to the offence with which he wits`charged Mr. Fox said he would leave the case in his hands to deal with it as he thought proper. Mr. BOND repeated that he thought the case ought to go to the Sessions. UNION-HALL. stealing Wm. Brown, a diminutive bgy, 4 wu4 *tett witl; -= coals out of a barge on the Thames. In the course of the examination it was ita.7ed that the quantity of coals stolen from barges on the rive~, gangs of Juvenile thieves, was incalculable. In the Jt instance the prisoner was seen between three and fo_ - .1. ~'clock that morning to walk out into the river nearly up liis middle in mud and water, and ascend a barge and c.irriance filling a bag, which he had slung over his shouk.er, with coals. When he had finished his task he waded bac::: again and was taken into custody. Mr. TRAIL!, said there was little doubt such boys as the prisoner were encouraged by their parents in acts of dis honesty, and that they were compelled to go cut and rob, or be punished. The prisoner, however, having refused to tell where his parents lived, and being known as a very incorrigible young thief, he was committed for six months. _ _ Thomas Weblin, a well-dressed man, was charged with wilfully breaking a pane of plate-glass in the window of the Horse and Groom, in the Westminster-road. It appeared that, on the preceding day, the defendant had been down enjoying the sports of Greenwich fair, and, on his return, he called at the Horse and Groom, and got into a squabble with some women who were at the bar. The land lord, anxious to preserve regularity in his house, requested the defendant to quit the place. He, however, refused, and using very improper language, challenged to fight the landlord, who not being at all inclined to enter into a pugilistic encounter with him, at length succeeded in the expulsion of so rough a customer. The moment the defendant got outside he picked up a large stone and dashed it at the window, demolishing a large plate pane of glass. He afterwards attempted to escape, but was secured. _ The defendant denied the charge, but evidence having been adduced of the fact, he was adjudged to pay the damage, and in default was locked up. GENERAL ASSEMBLY. EDINBURGH, SATURDAY, MAY 25. THE P RESBYTERIAN CHURCHES IN ENGLAND. Mr. CUMMING, of London, said that since last year a most important change had taken place in the de signation of the Presbyterian Synod in England. They had agreed to exchange that portion of their title "in connexion with the Church of Scotland," and immediately agreed to receive a deputation from a body who were known by the title of the "Free Church:' This had taken place immediately after the late secession, and the result was that the Synod, which was recognised as in communion with the Church of Scotland, had ceased to exist in any way whatever. It had been said, that the declaration in favour of the Free Church had been come to unani mously, but the true cause of unanimity was because many of the ministers of the Church of Scotland in Eng land were so dissatisfied with the statements made in the Synod, that they studiously, and by concert, absented themselves from its meeting. It was not, therefore, right to suppose that all the ministers who had been in connexion with the Church of Scotland had alien ated from that connexion, or lost their affection for it. On the contrary, some of the best and ablest minis ters in England not only maintained the connexion unimpaired, but had become more attached to the Church than they had been before.—(Hear, hear.) He rejoiced that that attachment had become stronger, and that he had it in his power to say, that many who had separated in consequence cf the ex citement, were now rapidly returning within its pale. There was one church within the Presbytery of Lon don which could not contain the nurnhe: that had returned, and who were sick to the heart of the at tempts made against it.—(Hear, hear.) All that he wished to ask of the Assembly we, that the tie which knit the ministers in England to the Esta blishment should be as broad and palpable to the eyes of the public as it could with consistency be made. The reasons for this were extremely cogent, for state ments were circulated in England to -1 :e effect that the churches there were disowned—thst :Ise Church of Scotland had nothing to do with All that was necessary, then, was simply that t* -, 3y should be recognised—that the Assembly saw in thsm a useful outpost of the National Church.—(Hear, hear). He could make statements to the house which would prove that some ministers in England had rendered no unimportant services to the interests of the Church. It was reported throughout London, that all religion had evaporated from the Established Church of Scot land —that scarcely an evangelical minister was to be found within its pale--and that those who remained were absolutely Socinian in their principles. When aps plication was made to the Presbytery of London for infor mation on the state of the Church, they gave a true statement of the facts of the case. The Presbytery in London had divided itself into two parties —one half of whom, whose trustees were less specific as to their connection with the Church of Scotland, re mained attached to it, while the other parties, whose trust-deeds stated distinctly that they should be in connection with the Established Church, had alien ated itself from it. He believed that, as soon as those had light to see their duty, there would be seven or eight, instead of only three churches in con nection with the Church. In Liverpool there were two churches—one retained its connection with the Establishment, and he believed the other would very soon be the same.— (Hear, hear.) Several ministers in England were anxious that something should be done to rally the scattered forces throughout that country, and he had received letters showing how desirous they were that the Assembly should adopt some measure which would mark the line of demarcation of such as were ministers of the Church of Scotland. Many in England were anxious to combine the status of being connected with the Church of Scotland, while they courted all the popularity of the secession —they having never formally renounced their con nection with the Establishment. He would suggest that in these circumstances the Assembly would be pleased to request the scattered ministers of the Church in England to form themselves into presby teries, and that those presbyteries should form them selves into a synod —composed exclusively of the licentiates of the Church, and allow the synod to send a deputation to the Assembly ; or perhaps it would be still more advantageous that a small committee of the Assembly were appointed to confer with the ministers in England as to the way in which their relation to the Church of Scotland should be recog nised.—(Hear, hear.) The connexion with England was of great importance to th e Ch urc h, f or many persons —perhapscame but afew t o the to s p en d a f ew y ears and if there was no Church connected with the Establishment, they would go either to the Episcopalian Church, and thus be in danger of forsaking the Chsrsh of their fathers, or they would join those who wire hostile to it, and then return home to exert themselves to its prejudice. But if the Church kept up i:s connexion in London, there would be every erospect of those who visited that city being sent home better Christians and better men. The connexion with English churches was also valu:':le and use ful in regard to the schemes of the Chum:.: The Epis copalian Churches entertained much sve-esethy with the Church of Scotland, there being a ses neral con viction that its position was the right r - H. true one, and that it ought to have their sympathy seal co-ope ration.—(Hear.) He had conversed wig s several of the most celebrated ministers of the I7sniscopalian Church on the subject —a minister who had sent ten guineas to the five schemes which he (Mr. C.) be lieved he would annually contribute.—(Hear.) He repeated his earnest request that the Assembly should give some distinct expression, indicating the tie which subsisted between it and the Churches in England. Dr. BROWN, of Greenock, said, that in every word which bad been so well expressed by his Rev. Friend he most cordially concurred. He would simply add that there was a very crying reason why a committee should be appointed as requested by Mr. Cumming, and that was that from representations made to him from Liverpool and London, it was absolutely neces sary that some deliverance should be given by the Assembly, in order that those places of worship which formerly were in connection with the Church, but which now had separated from it, should be reclaimed by judicial procedure—that, in short a plea in, equity might be entered. Dr. Cools said it was certainly of great importance to the Church to be on a most intimate footing with the Presbyterians in England attached to it. He knew there were many zealously attached, and who, by the communications they had sent, showed an anxious desire to know in what relation they really stood to the Establishment of getting its support, so that they might manage their churches, and carry on the different offices in a manner consistent with its views. The church at Liverpool had given a striking evidence of its attachment to the Establishment, by expressing its great anxiety for guidance in this respect. After a few observations from Dr. Muir and Prin cipal Macfarlan, Mr. PRINGLE, M.P., expressed his cordial satisfac tion at the readiness with which the Assembl y were to accede to the request of Mr. Cummin g , and the Committee was appointed ; and after some proceed ings of no interest in the evening sederunt, the As sembly adjourned till Monday. FREE uti u Itl/11--OA.TURDAY. Mr. BRIDGES brought up the subject of the im provement of the church psalmody, and enforced the necessity of taking up the matter with more hearty energy than it had been in time past. He noticed the great attention paid.to this part of Christian wor ship in the early part of the Church's history, in con trast with the comparative indifference with which it was generally regarded in modern con g re g ations. He hoped the subject would be taken up by the Educa tional Committee of the Church, for it was there that it should be seriously considered that the musical qua lifications of their schoolmasters might be more gene rally enforced. He proposed a sub-committee under the Educational Committee to take the subject into consideration. Mr. MACFARLANE, of Renfrew , said, that if they had music of a simpler kind as a sort of lesson book for their congregations, and could interest them to take an united interest in their improvement in psahnody, he had no doubt that mucn good would result.—lt was agreed to appoint a commi!tee. OVERTURE ON UNIVERSITY Tr STS. Mr. Sheriff SPEIRS said, it %IS use': 7- : for him to go minutely into the history of the csts, as the subject had been so amply discussed c• — where. It was well known that, until lately t aad been virtually abolished in all the Universities or Scotland; and that their revival at the present time was not for the purpose of embarrassing those persons who would then have been particularly obnoxious to the Senatus, but to deny the honour to.those who, for conscience sake, had become members of the Free Church of Scotland —(Applause.) All the professors in the Universities who had become adherents to the Free Church of Scotland, had at one time subscribed these very tests which were now so much spoken of; and they ought to be considered, in all fairness, as yet adhering to them in spirit and in substance—(Applause.) A great clamour had been raised about the subject out of doors; and they knew the result of the application to the House of Commons. The attempt for their abolition, in the form of an application to Parliament, had failed ; but it had failed in such a way as to leave no doubt that the country at large would soon set this matter to rights, and that in a short time they would cease to suffer from those tests which bore so heavy upon those professors who did not happen to be members of a Church Establish ment.—(Applause.) The Assembly, at the present time, was unable to do anything in the matter; but he trusted that by the next Assembly they would be better prepared to act upon the subject. They might remit the overture.to a committee, with instructions upon the subject generally, and directions to watch specially over the interests of the members of the Free Church, who were professors in the Universities. Dr. CANDLISH said he entertained no alarm what ever for the result of the present agitation. Since the disruption from the Establishment, the Free Church had been the means of extending the cause of true religion generally, and stirring up a spirit of Chris tian brotherhood in many evangelical denominations ; and might it not reasonably expect, that by the bring ing forward the question of university tests, a large accession would be made to the cause of education, both moral and religioul Even should the matter swell out into popular excitement should Mr. Mule's excellent proposal not be carried out—good, great good, he had no doubt, would be attendant on the result. The subject was, accordingly, remitted to a com mittee. DEPUTATION TO THE UNITED ASSOCIATE SYNOD. Dr. CANDLISH said that, in the absence of Dr. Welsh, he had merely to report verbally, as a member of that deputation, that, notwithstanding the allow ance to be made for the difference between themselves and the body which they visited, upon the subject of Church Establishments, they had been received kindly and cordially, and were deeply impressed with the friendship shown them. There could be no sur render of our principles in thus cement ing that friendly intercourse between the two bodies. The Free Church had got good from them ; and they, in their own peculiar circumstances, might derive much benefit from their connection with it. He trusted that they would always be ready to welcome every denomination of evangelical Christians —that they might draw tighter and tighter the bonds of Christian unity—so that our branch of the Pres byterian Church might be found to be animated by one soul and one spirit. Mr. HENDERSON, of Glasgow, also testified to the brotherly reception the deputation had met with, The Assembly then adjourned until half-past ten o'clock on Monday. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 20, 1844. IRELAND. DUBLIN, MAY 26.—Sir Coleman O'Loghlen, who opens the motion in arrest of judgment to-morrow , _ is likely to occupy the entire of the day. Mr. M'Donagh , Q.C., is on the same side in this motion. Each of the traversers, it is said, will claim the right to be heard by counsel on this as well as upon the new trial motion. But from the spirit exhibited by the Attorney-General, and the extreme anxiety mani fested by some members of the Court to reach the termina tion of the State prosecutions, it is probable that this claim will be resisted, and that the Court will limit the traversers, so that the argument may be brought to a close within two or three days. Sir C. O'Loghlen demurs generally to the indictment, and there is good reason to believe that such a case will be esta blished, as would justify the Court in pronouncing against the validity of some counts of the indictment, although enough might be preserved to sustain a conviction against all the traversers except, of course, the Rev. Mr. Tierney, respecting whom the Attorney-General has abandoned the prosecution. The argument and decision upon the arrest of judgment may also become important, in relation to the appeal to the House of Lords. The writ of error is already prepared, in order that the ne cessary forms should be gone through, in case the judges should decide against the motion in arrest of judgment. There is scarcely room for doubt that the appeal to the House of Lords will be successful. But the sufferers are to suffer incarceration in the meantime. The sentence, in all likeli hood, will be passed before the close of the present week, EXECUTION OF TWO BROTHERS IN NENAGII. Yesterday, John and Thomas Wade, brothers, who were found guilty last assize of the murder of a man named Patrick Ryan, were executed in front of the Nenagh gaol. A third brother, Patrick Wade, remains in gaol until next assizes, charged with being concerned in the same awful deed. At a few minutes after twelve o'clock the two wretched men appeared on the drop, accompanied by the Rev. Mr. Power, R.C.C., and the Rev. Mr. Bowles, R.C.C. Thomas Wade, who is rather a low-sized man, about twenty-five years of age, repeated after the Rev. Mr. Power, a declaration of his guilt. He acknowledged that with his brother John, he was at the murder of Patrick Ryan (Morgan) —that there was ao other person at it but the two ; that Shanahan, the informer, swore falsely, for he was not concerned in any way with the murder, nor did he know of it. That he forgave his prosecutors, and prayed most fervently for pardon of his sins, and that the Lord might have mercy on his soul. John Wade, a taller and stouter man than his brother, about twenty-eight years of age, repeated, after the Rev. Mr. Bowles, a similar declaration of guilt. The unhappy men bade each other farewell, shook hands, and kissed each other, prior to the light of Heaven being shut out from them in this world. After the drop fell, Thomas Wade appeared to suffer much, but in a few minutes there was no appearance of life. John Wade died almost instantaneously. WILFUL DAMAGE OF PROPERTY ___ IN THE HOME PARK, WINDSOR. _ _ WINDSOR, MONDAY.—About three years since a cutting of the depth of eight or ten feet was made across a great por tion of the Home Park, leading from the Waterloo-gate, in the Frogmore-road, to Datchet, which has been a public thoroughfare from Windsor to that village for several centu ries past. Across the trench, which is about ten feet wide, an iron bridge was thrown, in order that her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert might proceed, uninterruptedly, from the Castle to the New Kennel, near the Dairy, where are kept her Majesty's favourite dogs, under the care of May nard, the keeper. This excavation at the time was loudly complained of by the inhabitants of Windsor and Datchet; which, independently of its cutting up one of the most beau tiful and delightful portions of the Home Park, renders this part of the walk, across the Royal domain, at night, and es pecially to females, of an extremely dangerous character, several of whom have been attacked during the winter by the loose characters who have congregated in that vicinity. Within the last few weeks the cutting has been extended several hundred yards, and it now reaches very nearly to the 'Waterloo-gate, in the Frogmore-road. In addition to this, a high mud bank, faced with turf; has been thrown up along the whole length of the ravine on the Castle side, so that almost from the moment of entering the park until it is completely crossed, and Datchet-mead is entered upon, scarcely a glimpse of the Royal residence, not even of the Royal standard on the Round Tower, is to be obtained by the promenaders between the village oiDatchet and Windsor. The old cutting has just been excavated to the depth of several additional feet, rendering this once picturesque walk one of the most dull and gloomy imaginable ; and in addition to these precautionary means to prevent the public from en joying the liberty they once possessed of walking on the green sward, a strong iron fence is in the course of being erected throughout the whole extent of the cut, about half way up the high bank, thus rendering it almost impossible for any one to climb up the steep acclivity. These extraor dinary proceedings (the extent of which it is not believed either her Majesty or Prince Albert is yet aware of, as the job was not commenced until after the Court left Windsor six weeks ago) have very naturally caused great complaining and dissatisfaction amongst her Majesty's lieges throughout the neighbourhood. For many nights past portions of the new iron fencing on the sides of the cutting have been wil fully bent and shattered, and large pieces broken off and thrown into the park ; and, notwithstanding the watch which has been kept since these outrages were first discovered, the perpetrators of . them still remain unknown. This destruc tion of property has been of serious consequence to the con tractor, Mr. Faulkner, of Husham, near Esher, who is com pelled to bear the whole of the loss which has been sustained, the works not being yet completed. Upwards of fifty of the iron fences have been damaged and partly destroyed. When the whole is completed the public will be completely " cut off" from Herne's Oak, with all its delightful and most in teresting historical and Shakspearian associations. We shall, however, still be permitted to view its venerable trunk and lifeless branches from the respectful distance of some fifty or sixty yards ; but as for the Fairy Dell, the scene of Falstaff's amours with the two Merry rives of Windsor (but which, by the by, has lately been half filled up by some Goth-like hand), a glimpse at the commencement of -what is now termed " Cut-throat-alley" will scarcely be obtained by the passer by. We may mention that five venerable elm trees, near Queen -Elizabeth's walk, in this immediate vicinity, and which were planted in the early part of the reign of William the Third, have been levelled, in order to carry into effect the " improvements " which are now in progress in this por tion of the Royal demesne. FORTUNATE ESCAPE.—On Sunday forenoon, at five minutes to eleven o'clock, the large flagstaff which was situated at the top of the steeple of St. George's Church, Cannon-street East, and upon which the union flag used on particular days to be placed, suddenly broke off through the violence of a stiff easterly breeze, and fell with a crash on the stone platform at the entrance to the church, where a number of the congregation had been standing only five minutes be fore. It fell partly on the iron palisading round the platform, which it broke away to some extent, and a large cast-iron column which supported a gas lamp close by was shivered to pieces. The flag staff was 40 feet long, and 3 feet in circum ference at its base, tapering like the mast of a ship to a point of about four inches in diameter. It was broken into four pieces, one of which struck with some violence Mr. Hocka day, a cork cutter in Cannon• street, while standing at the north side of the church, but did not materially injure him. It is not more than a fortnight ago since the vane or wea thercock was placed on the top of the staff. It was about 5 feet 10 inches long, and was found after the concussion, broken into four pieces, in the back yard of Mr. Hattersley, about 40 yards distance from the church. FORGING FOREIGN COIN.—At the Public-office, on Tuesday last, Mr. May, Consul-General of the Nether lands, accompanied by a friend, applied to the Magistrates for a warrant to search the premises of Mr. Taberrer, of Weaman-row, and Messrs. Calley and Co., of Weaman-street. On the warrant being executed a large quantity of Dutch coin, in a finished state, and also some dies, were found and conveyed to the chief station. It is stated that the manu facturers were not aware that they were committing an offence, and offered every facility to Mr. May in showing their books, and giving up the names of the parties from whom they received the orders. The penalties are 101. for every coal; but. it has not vet been determined, what course will be adopted.—Birmingham Gazette.
