EXTRACT FROM TILE ABRIDGED MORISONIANA. " Reader, let me narrate to you a small circumstance that took place not a month ago, and when I was penning this advice to you ; for in an investigation of this kind, the minuter the circumstance, of the snore consequence it is. It a man, from his knowledge, ~ience, or art, could cause the slightest dowh to grow upon your on a part where there was none, and could give good rational L:rounds for his so doing, we should then have sufficient reason to ;io,,ie that the same person would arrive at the knowledge of co. "..ering our heads with hair sshea bald, and where there was none. I had on the ml Idle joint of One'of the Middle toes of the left foot, a very slight contraction of the articulation, with a little turgidity, and the skin looked whitish and shining. It, perhaps, had, existed there tWent?years(for Ida not remember its appearance), gave me no pain, and did not prevent me wearing any shoe. All I know is, that it was there for many many years :—the nicest anatomist or 'sculptor woted_Mily have said that there was some Imperfection in it; a little contraction and swelled skin it certainly had. One day lately I felt pain on It, on the bone farther down, close to the body of the n Q t, a little hardness and redness like a flea-bite ; but I felt, at the same tiMe; that the pain was deep, and reached the bone. It -vent on increasing; and the whole of that part of the foot became inflamed and swelled, and for two days I could scarcely walk_ . Those about me recommended various applications, common imsuch cases; but F rejected them, sensible of the only cause from n Lich it Could proceed, and confident in the vegetable universal nwaieinelo`eradicate that cause. I was otherwise in perfect health, and could have walked thirty miles the day before it attacked me. it is to betemarked, too, that on the other side of the artieulation, towards, the "point of the toe, there was not the least inflammation; this shows how the blood acts—it had detached the humour, and was cmtveying It up to the bowels to be purged oIE As I expected, in a few days more the inflammation subsided; and, what is still rare-cone whole contraction and littleswelling were gene. Science or knowledge, without knowing the cause how this insignificant change on my toe was brought about, is no knowledge at all, and h loSf to the world; you can make no use of it on other ocea. sinus. The eause of the change oh my toe arose from this : toy blood was then purified by three years' use of the vegetable universal'medreine, 'and I was in good health. I have before said, in the body of this advice, that the blood, the life of man, when perfectly putified,becometi penetrating, elastic, energetic. It strives to, have uncontrolled sway in all its dominions, the body, and to be itself everywhere, to' nourish all properly. More nice than the anatomist or sculptor, and jealous of its rights, the blood bad toundour this little corner on the articulation of my toe, where one of its bitter enemies had established himself for many years. This enemy pas a. hurathir, and the cause of the contraction ; the pure blood, strong and active, enters into combat with it, subdues, and t•:pels it.. This was the cause of the inflammation—the humour, being dislodged, spread itself over the other parts, till, by the cir. ciliation, it was to be conveyed to the bowels to be carried off. One may judge of the malignity of the humours when this, not_so b:g as hag a small pea, could occasion such pain. This was the consequence of more than a thousand doses of the vegetable universal medicine, which did not disable me, all that time, from any occupation or amusement. This may be compared to the last conquest the blood had to make to regain possession of its dominibrls. - • " From this,occurrence on the toe, one may draw inferences and knowledge of the most useful nature. We may consider it as the s,2cid or-a clksists#, which had planted itself there, and only waited a favourable 'ojapOrtnnity of spreading itself, which would have de_ pended ott my mode of life and state of blood; fur example, four years 'so ill, and pains in some other parts of my feet, that I could • 4edieely walk, if, Instead of using the vegetable universal modicide,'} lad- followed the advice of physicians, cronies, and such like, and sised, of the expression is, bracers, fortifiers, nostrums, or specifics—othis same humour on the toe would have been fostered up into the gOut, or some such thing, and if alive at this day (which • was not probable), 1 should have been infirm and bed. z idden."

A reference to -ur advertising, department exhibits a greater display a property than has been perceptible for many months ; of this is rot all ; it includes so much that is really icherchee, that we can conscientiously recommend a peep into these announcements to our readers, and spocially those ash , are accounted capitalists. The Westminster Bank allow (as a mark of special favour) one and a half per cent. on loans fur three and six months.

The House of Lords went into Committee on the Factories Bill; and, after some discussion, and a division, all the clauses were agreed to, and the Bill was ordered to be a third timeon Monday. In the Commons, the order of the day was read for going into Committee on the Ecclesiastical Courts Bill, when Mr. T. DUNCOMDE moved an instruction to the Committee to abolish all ecclesiastical courts, and transfer the jurisdiction of these courts to civil tribunals. The motion was lost, by a majority of 115 to 70. A number of other amendments were proposed, as particular clauses were brought forvvard„ all in favour of the Bill. After some discussion, the Chairman reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again. _ In answer to a question from Mr. HUMS, Sir R. PEEL fixed the 10th inst. to proceed with the Bank Charter Bill. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjoUrned at a Quarter to One o'clock. The scene in the Dublin Court of Queen's Bench on Thursday, was one which,,we believe, has no parallel in the history of, the country. The man who has more power in Ireland thin any other leader ever had, who is looked up to by the bar, and even by the bench, as the first lawyer of th e d ay, who has long held a prominent place" in the House of Commons, and virtually represented the whole of his native land, war brought up before his coll eagues , several of them his juniors, to receive judgment. On his entrance, the bar rose simultaneously, and cheered him, the judge who pronounced sentence wept like a child, and when the chief traverser (we use the un couth epithet enjoined by law) declared his , Annocence, "three - -times- three " and " one cheer more" were given for O'CONNELL, Was ever martyr so honoured ? And martyrdom it may be justly called. We have said all along that he has not had a fair trial. Lord Chief Justice DEN➢IAN, and all his colleagues,, have virtually as serted the fact; no English jury would have con victed him on such evidence ; yet from political pre•. judice, or ignorance, or something worse, the first man in Ireland—the greatest benefactor of his coun try—has been shut up within the four walls of a prison like a felon, and at the age of sixty-eight is subjected to a severe and disgraceful punishment before the law has had its full course. An appeal is to be made to another tribunal—an appeal, too, which, from every possible calculation, will be successful ; yet in these times, in an age more distinguished for humanity than any other to be• found in the range of history, the law of the infernal regions is still the law of the land. It is the law of PLUTO, " Castigat auditque dolos." Suppose he had been convicted of high trea son, and condemned to death, could not the SOVE REIGN have respited the sentence until full inquiry had been made whether it was just or unjust? This is an every day occurrence, even while we have no courts of appeal for capital offences. Yet, in this instance, where there is a court of appeal, and the judgment of ithe lower court may be reversed, the ' punishment is inflicted, whilst the victim is suffering for a crime of which he may be declared by the highest authority entirely innocent. We have never approved of the monster meetings assembled by Mr. O'CON NELL, but, in a sprit of justice, we have been inclined to view them as we would view the acts of a man driven to desperation, when he found there was no other means of protection, and took the law into his own hands. This is the case of Mr. O'CONNELL. He had tried every legitimate means to obtain redress for the insufferable grievances of his country, he had brought forward motions, he had resisted motions in Parliament, but all in vain ; the Tory and Orange party were too powerful ; none of his countrymen, though they form a third of the United Empire, were admitted into office ; they were treated as aliens in blood, and religion, and politics ; the clergy of the people were described as surpliced ruffians; and the whole nation was regarded as a conquered tribe. He was hunted to death, and he turned upon his pursuers. Is this a crime ? Is a man not to be forgiven for exceeding the bounds of the law, when he finds that law will not protect him ? He may be imprudent, but he is not morally guilty.. This is the decision to which his country men have come, and not the mob, the offscourings of the people only, but the first men of the land, and the leading barristers in the Four Courts. The Govern ment have obtained a victory, but have they rendered Ireland more secure ? They have excited a spirit which will rankle in the heart of every repealer, and make the Catholics cry for vengeance on their op pressors. The high price of coals in the metropolis, the great selling mart of this indispensable description of fuel, has long been a signal but an unredressed grievance upon the London consumer. Various plans have been devised, from time to time, for facilitating the moorings of the colliers within the port, and the deli very of their cargoes; but, hitherto, with little or no effect upon that system of combination which has operated to keep cargoes out of the market when the prices have been low, and to pour them in when prices have been high, with a degree of surprising consistency and constancy. The connexion between cause and effect was never more palpable than in the certainty with which the number of cargoes discharged de6lined with the lower, and multiplied with the tighe r , quotations. In our paper of Wednesday we reported the proceedings which had taken place at the Mansion house, on a complaint brought before the Lord Mayor, by a seaman, against the captain of a Hartlepool col lier. It appeared that the man had signed an agree ment with the owners to work the vessel from Hartle pool to London and hack for 41., but that he had no notion, in doing so, of being detained "over the three market days allowed by Act of Parliament to each collier for discharging and clearing out." The brig had been already twenty market days in the river and himself, and others in the same condition, who had wives and children in the port from whence they had sailed, knew that, these unfortunate connexions must either be starving, or thrown on the union poor houses for relief, owing to the inadequacy of the wages earned to so protracted and unlooked for a term of detention in the Thames. The Lord Mayor seems to have been quite alive to the cruelty of the case as affecting the seamen engaged under this kind of liability, and to the injustice which the practice of colliers remaining "in sections," with cargoes unsold, long after the expiration of the three market days al lowed by the Act, entailed upon the public by enhanc ing the price. Prom subsequent communications be tween the Lord Mayor and Mr. ROWLAND, harbour master of the port of London, facts transpired that surely lay a strong case for the interference of his Lordship, as Conservator of the Thames Navigation, indepen dently of a case for his magisterial intervention, to defeat the oppressive operation of a spirit of reckless monopoly on the part of coal-owners and tLL pgettts, From a return given in by the harbour'-msssiter, ex-, , tending from the Ist to the 28th - ins n "of the number of coal-laden vessels arrived at CriVesend; the number detained in sections"; the number of car goes sold in the market, and the prices at which they were sold," we perceive that the total number of col- Hers arrived, in all that period, was 353 ; that, from the Ist to the 7th inst., there arrived of this number 116, and there were sold only 66 cargoes ; the largest number of colliers detained in sections being on the Ist, when there were 280, and the smallest on the 4th, when there were 228. From the Bth to the 17th inclusive there were 139 arrivals, and 156 cargoes sold; the smallest number in the sections being 219, the largest 271. From the 18th to the 28th inclusive there were 98 arrivals, 109 cargoes sold; the smallest number in sections 107, the largest 204. In the twenty-eight days, therefore, 353 colliers had arrived, whereof 331 had sold their cargoes in the market, leaving . 22 which Lad not sold to be added to the number detained, on the same account, in the "sec tions." The number detained, on an average of the whole twenty-eight days (280 having been the maxi mum return and 107 the minimum), was 198. The prices at which the best coals were sold, varied, be tween the Ist and the 24th, only from 225. to 235. 6d.; but this note is added to the harbour -master's return, " 27th May, or the last market day, three colliers ar rived, 100 sail detained in sections, 32 ships' cargoes sold, and the price of the best coals varying from 24 to 25 shillings, or about 345. per ton to the consumer." Mr. Alderman HUMPHERY sensibly remarked that it was astonishing how a systematic violation of an Act of Parliament, which had the effect of running up the price of coals Bs. or 10s. per ton to the consu mer, should have been endured so long by the public, which raised such an outcry at a proposed additional duty of 4d. per ton on this commodity. This duty, be it observed, is, at any rate, for specified public pur poses. The enhanced price of Bs. or 10s. beyond the natural price which coals, at their present supply, would command, goes exclusively into the pockets of the combining coal-owners and their agents, at the expense of the London consumer; and to enable them to accomplish this cheat, the navigation of the river is rendered incommodious and dangerous, and the general convenience of shipping trading with the port of London materially encroached upon by those huge sections of monopoly-price colliers. We are very glad to observe the Lord Mayor holding this language on the subject : " He should meet them with a plan calculated to defeat their exertions. There were three market days allowed, and every ship which refused to sell within the specified time, namely, the duration of the three market days, should be compelled to move out of the sections, and below Gravesend altogether, out of the mayoralty juris diction." " The colliers shall not make a warehouse of the Thames. It is quite absurd to suppose that they would remain forty and fifty days in the river without meaning to remunerate themselves for the delay by drawing upon the public. It is my instruction to you, Captain Row. land, to intimate to the captains of all colliers which come into London, - that if they refuse to sell within the three market daysthey must remove out of the bounds of my jurisdiction altogether." We verily believe that no city of Europe, in refer ence to the vast and various ,commerce of its port, and especially its coasting trade, derives so little local or immediate advantages from its position as London. The sarie vigilance which we trust henceforth to see directed to the supply of coal, might greatly multiply, cheapen, and facilitate the comfort and enjoyment of its two millions of inhabitants, in respect of other articles of necessity, convenience, or luxury, from THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY MORNING, JUNE 1, 1844. which they are in like manner debarred, in a great measure, by the same übiquitous spirit of monopoly. Accounts from Madrid of the 23d state, that the two QUEENs, with the INFANTA, had arrived at Amanas on the 22d, and were to set out next day for Valencia. The Government were proceeding with the organisation of the cavalry, which was to be com posed of 18 regiments. The total effective strength will be 12,420 men and 10,584 horses. The Three per Cents. were done at 29i for cash, and 291 at 60 days; and the Five per Cents. at 20/ at 60 days. The discussion in the French Chamber of Deputies on foreign affairs was continued on Wednesday. M. TIIIERS spoke on that day, and made only a few re marks on the affair of Otaheite, in which he ,blamed the Ministry—first, for going there at all ; secondly, for not foreseeing the difficulties Admiral DUPETIT TIIOUARS would have to encounter; and, thirdly, for disavowing him. He then referred to the policy pur sued by the Cabinet with regard to the French at Monte Video, where the forces of France were actu ally the auxiliaries of the ferocious Roses; drew a parallel between the two Governments of Monte Video and Buenos Ayres; and presented the most frightful picture of the atrocities committed by ROSAS. Most of the facts he mentioned had been supplied to him by M. BASELLA, the Envoy of the Montevideans to the English Government, and might consequently be relied upon as true. Monte Video, on the contrary, was governed by a regular and humane Administration, which was favourably dis posed towards France. He blamed the French Consul at Monte Video for not asserting the rights of his countrymen, amounting to nearly eighteen thousand, and paid a high complirrient to the English Commo dore I'URVES, who had adopted a far different course. "When ORIBE," continued M. TRIERS, "published the barbarous proclamation in which he declared that all strangers should be treated like the savage Uni tarians, the Commodore wrote to him that his pro clamation was worthy of a pirate of the coast of Bar- . bary, and summoned him to disavow it. ORIBE replied that .the English were to be excepted; but this declaration did not satisfy the English officer, who insisted on the withdrawal of the proclamation, to which ORIBE acceded." (Here M. TRIERS was in terrupted by the Minister of Marine, who stated that it was Admiral MessrEu DE CLERVAL who had taken the initiative, and been the first to protest against ORIBE'S proclamation.) " Yes,". replied M. THIERS, " but he did not protest in the name of his Govern ment, and he did not sign the protest." We find no thing else of the slightest interest in the discussion, with the exception of the following remarks of M. GUIZOT, on the state of the French navy "He observed that ever since 1840, the supplies of the Marine had progressively increased; that in 1839 they were under 60,000,000; that in 1840 they amounted to 72,000,000; in 1842, to 125,000,000 ; in 1843, to 125,000,000 ; and in 1844, to 111,000,000. As respected the armaments, the number of vessels in active service, in 1838, was 198 ; in 1839, 218 ; in 1840, 228 ; in 1841, 227 ; in 1842, 225 ; iu 1843, 189 ; and 1844, 190. The sums expended in the mili tary and merchant harbours by the Ministry of Public Works, from 1837 to 1843, exceeded 52,000,000; in 1842, 1843, and 1844, the credits appropriated to the same object amounted to 22,000,000, besides 6,000,000 more expended in Algiers. Those facts sufficiently cleared the Government, in his opinion,'of the charge of neglecting the navy, and proved that the real interests of the navy and the naval forces of France had never received a more rapid and important ex tension than under his administration." The Journal des Debats, in a well written article, pays a high compliment to the memory of the late LAFFITTE. "M. Laffitte (it says) had not wished for the Revolution of July, but he had the merit of accepting and inaugurating it at the moment it became necessary. It was to his pre ceding conduct—to his acknowledged and tried moderation, that he was indebted for the honour of being one of the first summoned to restore order after the storm, to consolidate the work of the Revolution, and to save it from its ex cesses."

ACCIDENT TO THE DUKE OF BEAUFORT. It gives us great pleasure to announce that the accident which his Grace met with in Hyde Park on Wednesday afternoon is not likely to be attended with such serious re sults as were at first apprehended. The following bulletin was issued yesterday in Arlington -street:— " Arlington-street ; May 30, 1844. " His Grace the Duke of Beaufort has passed a tolerable night, and is much better this morning; and although still occasionally in great pain, no serious consequences are ap prehended from h►s Grace's accident.

The inquiries at Beaufort House were exceedingly nume rous, andj during the whole of the afternoon the court-yard of the ducal mansion was thronged by the carriages of the nobility and gentry. Alton Hall, in Suffolk, has been for nearly a cen tury in the possession of Mr. Dean's family, and it is only by his lamented death that this famed property is brought to public competition.

ENLARGEMENT OF THE PAVILION AT BRIGHTON.— We have good authority for stating that it has been for a considerable time in contemplation to enlarge the Palace, for the purpose of obtaining a good sea view, the want of whiCh from the present building was much regretted by her Majesty on her first arrival at Brighton. It is proposed, we under stand, to build a wing at the northern end of the Pavilion, with a south frontage; and a gentleman from the department of the Woods and Forests was here last week to measure the ground for the site of the proposed wing.—Brighton Gazette offnursday.

MONE KAND COMMERCIAL NEVV , - CITY, FRIDAY EVENING, At the close of business to-day Consols looked rather duller, although not quoted lower. They were 99 for Money, and 99a fiw Account. Exchequer Bills were quiet at 70s. to 725. premium; East India Stock was again marked 289; and the Three-and-a-Half per Cent. Securities supported their full value. The Foreign Market has been flatter this afternoon. The tendency of Spanish Bonds we noticed in the morn ing, and they lost the temporary- appearance of a rally ; the Five per Cents. being 23- to ; and the Three per Cents., 344 to j-. Portuguese Converted were at a de cline to 46 and 45k; Mexican were firm at 3.5 to -a; Belgian touched 104, and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 61i- to -I. The additional transactions in Railway Shares have been these :—Birmingham and Gloucester, New, were si; Bristol and Exeter, 9; Great Western, 431 to 45; Ditto Half, 26; Ditto Fifths, 9i• ' Birmingham, 121 ; Ditto Thirds, 34",,-- 1 to'3s; Ditto Quarter, 23 to 23k; South Western Eighths, 34; Manchester and Bir mingham, 16i to 16; North Midland Thirds, 7i-; Norwich and Brandon, 4i to 5; South Eastern, 2- to i; Ditto New, 74; Trent Valley, 6; Yarmouth and Norwich, 4; Paris and Orleans, 19 to 1 1 ; Paris and Rouen, 19 to i; and Rouen and Havre, 184 premium. Caledonian were 1; Eastern Counties, lli; Blackwall, 10; and Greenwich, 5 discount. The exchange on Paris, Hamburgh, and Amsterdam was rather firmer this afternoon, and on Antwerp and Trieste about the same. (From The Sun of Last Night.) The Cotton market at Liverpool continued very dull yes terday, but prrces were without any decided alteration. Sales 4,000 bales, including 400 bales American and 100 Pernams for export.—There was rather more inquiry for Railway Shares, and more business was done. Great Western Fifths 21k; Birmingham Thirds, 361; Brighton, 46; South-West ern Eighths, 41-; Manchester and Birmingham, 56}; South- Eastern, 35* ; Ditto New, 104 ; Paris and Lyons, 3.t- ; Paris and Orleans, 39i ; - Paris and Rouen, 38 ; Grand Junc tion, 111 i. The Directors .of the Bank:of England have issued the following notice : " The Governor and Company of the Bank of England are ready, until further notice, to receive applications for loans upon the deposit of approved Bills of Exchange not having more than six months to run, Exchequer Bills and East India Bonds, such loans to be repaid on or before the 19th of July next, with interest at the rate of three per cent. per annum, and to be for sums of not less than 2,0001. each." The usual promissory note will be required from the borrowers. We have no arrivals to-clay. The English Securities are again firm this morning, al - though there has not been a large bUsiness doing. Consols for immediate transfer have realised 99i 3, and for Time 993 Exchequer Bills are worth 70s. to 725. premium, and India Bonds 925. premium. Bank Stock has been firm, at the high price of 1991 to 200, and India Stock, 288. The New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. are 102 i to 4 ; and the Three per Cents. 98i to Spanish Bonds are going down- again, as we have the re ports revived as to the straitened position of Mon, the Fi nance Minister at Madrid. The Five per Cents. have been worth 234 to and the Three per Cents. 35a to ; Portu guese Converted are steadier at 46 to ; Mexican have been dull at 35k; and Brazilian firm at 81i. The settlement of the account is proceeding satis factorily. Belgian Bonds are at , 103. French Three -per Cents. realise 84f. 50e. ; and the Dutch Five . per Cents. are 99a for the 1837 loan. ifiere has been an extremely limited market for Shares, and consequently prices are not buoyant.

While descending the rocks, it seems, his feet be came firmly fixed in a cavity ! and losing his balance, he fell over and dashed his head against a rock with sufficient vio lence to cause death. The body, when fdund, was hanging by the' legs as it had fallen ; and life must have been extinct some hours, as the tide had flo we d over i t and receded con siderably. An inquest was held on Saturday before Mr.. Bone, and a verdict- of-" Found •dead," returned.— ;Vest of England Conservative. ~~...~... ~. ,4 SUMMARY OF NEWS AND Ij3tthltr (54. nit ton, " t - Ito vunj read." POEION. — The Archbishop of Paris, It being informed of M. Laffitte's malady, called on Monday morning .to pay him a visit. - It was at the house that he heard of his, death. The process of embalra'ng the body was performed on Tuesday. The family have issued an announcement that the friends who inter __ to accompany the funeral procession were to assemble at the hotel of the deceased, at eleven o'clock on Thursday morning ; and requesting that those friends who have not individually re ceived letters to this effect will regard the public notice of the family as an invitation. From all accounts it will be attended by vast crowds. The Ministers of the Interior and of War have, says the lifoniteur Pa; isien, under their consideration a plan-for form ing an agricultural colony on the southern part of Sahel, in Algeria. The Abbe Fissiaux, founder of the Penitentiary of Saint Pierre, at Marseilles; is to be with the realisa tion of thiS project. He will shortly 'set out for 'Algeria, in order to make all inquiries as to the salubrity- of the situa tion, which is the first and indispensable preliminary question. " We learn by accounts from Port-au-Prince to the 23d ult.," says the Constitutionnel, " that since the arrival of Ad= miral Aloges- things had been pretty tranquil. President Herard had suspended his operations against St. Domingo; in order to be able to put down the insurrection at Cayes. The letters from that place are to the 19th. They show the fugitives who had arrived at Jamaica had much exaggerated the importance of the events of which Cayes had been the theatre." The Augsburg Gazette states from Naples, that the Count de Montbel, who, it is said, was sent to that city by the family of the Duke de B or d eaux to request the hand of a Neapolitan princess for that prince, has quitted without hav ing succeeded in' his mission. According to the statement in the Augsburg Gazette, the French Ambassador at Naples had declared that, if the application made in the name of the Duke de Bordeaux should be complied with, he should im mediately discontinue all diplomatic relations with the Conrt of Naples. • The Swiss journals of the 25th concur in stating. hat tran quillity has been restored, and that the party of La Jeune Suisse has been thoroughly defeated. According to the Basle .State Gazette, the troops of the Upper Valais were well re ceived by the people of the lower Valais, who were glad to b e relieved from the tyranny of th e radical party. LAW AND POLICE. In the Court of Queen's Bench, Williams and Mottram, who had carried .on the' business of silk merchants in the City, and who had been found'guilty of conspiring to defraud the Custom-house, were sentenced to twelve months' im prisonment. A seafaring man, about 35 years of age, whogave the name of John Parker, was charged at Guildhall with defrauding Mr. Burrows, the landlord of the Rose and Crown, in Lower Thames-street, by uttering a false order to receive an amount he said was due to him for wages. He was remanded, as' other charges of a similar kind will be brought against him. A young man, dressed most respectably, and who had been out on bail for the night, was brought before Mr. Hall, at Bow-street, charged with having committed- repeated and unprovoked assaults upon several highly respectable females on the pi evioli evening. He gave his name as James M'Bryan, living at 15, Belvoir-terrace, Pimlico, and by occu pation a lawyer's clerk. He was accompanied at the time' by an inspector of the A division named. Tierney, who was stated to have obstructed the policeman who took Bryan into custody in the execution of his duty. The. Bench fined the prisoner 51., and informed Tierney that his conduct would be reported to the - Home Secretary. Edward Mahoney was charged at Clerkenwell with having brutally assaulted his wife, and also with having wilfully torn the clothes of Mr. -James Wilson, licensed victualler, of Gray's•lnn-lane. He was fined 31., or six weeks' imprison ment, fin- the 'assault upon his wife, and 7s. for wilfully da maging Mr. Wilson's clothes, or ten days' imprisonment, with hard labour, in default of payment. The prisoner being un able to pay the money, was conveyed to prison': Edward Bowman, a boy thirteen years of age, was finally examined, charged with having stolen a gold watch from the shop of Mr. Dent, watchmaker, 82, Strand. He was com mitted for trial, • . John Lever, the hair-dresser of Bermondsey-street, was brOught before Mr. Cottingham, .at Union-hall, for re-exa mination, charged with attempting to administer poison to Margaret his wife, with intent to destroy ben, ..The prisoner, by the adVice of his attorney, declined entering into any de fence farther than that of denying that he had administered any arsenic or other deleterious ingredient, to his.wife with the intent of. injuring her, adding that he had too much love and affection for her to seek to destroy her life... Mr. Cot tingham then committed the prisoner for trial, and bound over the witnesses to prosecute at the next sess i on o f t h e Central Criminal Court on the - 10th of next month. James Taylor was'examined at the same office on a charge of stealing two gold watches, other articles of jewellery, and money, amounting to 10K, the property of Mr. EdWard Car man, the landlord of a, publicrhouse..in Freeschool,street, Horselydown. He was reniarided. A young man named Henry Jones, dressed as a sailor, was charged at Hammersmith with having sent a threatening letter to Mr. George Newman, a gentleman. of property re • siding.at 38, Bedford-place, Kensington ' for the pu r p ose o f extorting money, &c. The ch arge was fully proved, but the prisoner was remanded, in order to obtain information as to where he wrote the letter. • • COITAT7--PABBIONABLE. The Kir g of Saxony left Buckhurst -park at an early hour .on Thursday morning, for Brighton, Chichester, and Ports mouth. On his arrival at the latter plate' he 'was to proceed direct to the Port Admiral's residence, where,a. select party of officers was invited to dine 'with hi s Majesty.' This morning the King inspected the docks a n d 'arsenal,- and at a later period of-the • day, embarked for the Isle of. Wight, where it is expected his Majesty will sleep to-night. The Chevaliers Budberg and De Lindenau, Charnber lains of his Majesty the King of Saxony, General Brown, &c., came passengers by the steam-ship Antwerpen, Captain Jackson, which arrived here on Thursday. The weather was very unfavourable,' and the tide contrary, but the passage from Antwerp was, notwithstanding, performed in nineteen hours. The Chamberlain of the Queen Dowager,.Earl Howe, and suite, will take their- passage by the Antwerpen on Sunday next. Her Majesty herself will leave on Monday by the Government-steamer Black Eagle. Admiral Sir W. Montague, Sir Joseph Radcliffe, Bart., Sir Themas and Lady.

' The Duchess Dowager of Cleveland's dinner party has been postponed; in consequence of a death in the family. In consequence of the severe contusions sustained - by the Duke of Beaufort by the accident he met with on Wednesday last, his .Grace was prevented from presiding at the enter tainment given last evening by the noblemen and gen tlemen of the Catch Club to " the ladies," at Willis's-rooms. Lord Saltoun; in the Duke's absence, took the chair. • The ball at Almack's orrWednesday night, commencing the third set, was one of the most numerous. and brilliant assemblages this season, at that favoured resort of fashion ; 550 persons of distinction gracing the sceneby their presence. XVIXtS c1EZ...41,2%/ EOli S. Thursday an adjourned meeting of the delegates from the metropolitan parishes took place at the Court-house, Mary lebone, for the , purpose of receiving - the reply of, the Secre tary of State for the-Home Department, in answer to a com munication from the vestry of St. Marylebone, requesting the Right Hon. Baronet, Sir James Graham, to appoint a time for receiving a deputatiori from the metropolitan parishes on the subject of the amended Poor-law Bill. It appeared from a letter of. Mr. Manners Sutton, addressed to the vestry clerk, that Sir James declined to receive the deputation. After some discussion, Mr., Gomm moved, " That the vestry clerk write to Sir James Graham, stating that all the metro politan parishes governed by. focal Acts desire- that such parishes should be entirely exempted from the operations of the Poor-laW Aniendraent Bill ;" and also expressieg their deep regret that Sir James Graham should have declined to receive & deputation as requested. Some idea may be formed of the number of persons who were present at the Eton Montem of Tuesday last, when we state that, during that day, 6,572 persons alighted at, and • departed' from, ehe station of the Great Western Railway Company at Slough.. Upwards of five -hundred persons ar rived from Oxford, and many from Bath and Bristol; but the, principal number, of course, arrived from the metropolis. A meeting convened by the committee for promoting the greatest attainable cleanliness in the streets of the metro polis, and of all large towns, was held on Thursday at the' Hanover-square-rooms, at which. Lord Robert Grosvenor presided. Resolutions to the effect that means should be adopted for promoting the greatest attainable cleanliness in the streets, that such an object is deserving serious consi deration as a sanatory, measure, and that a memorial on the subject be presented to the paving board of the parish, were moved and seednded by Lord Dudley Stuart, the Marquis of , Downshire, Dr. Sigmond, Dr. Bennet, -Lord Enston, Idajor Begot, Lord Ranelagh, Mr. J.' S. Buckingham, and Mr. Holmes, and were unanimously carried. Thursday the imposing assemblage of the Charity children of the City and metropolitan districts, took place in St. Paul's Cathedral, and was most numerously attended. Be sides a number of the fashionable world, many foreigners of distinction were present, but the vast arena on which the children were was the chief object of attraction. The whole of the interesting ceremony was conducted in the most satis factory manner. COURT CIRCULAR. The Queen Dowager visited the Queen yesterday, at Buckingham Palace.

The following is a more detailed account of the Fi v e ceedings, with a full r e p or t o f th e speec h o f Mr. Ju s t' Burton on pronouncing sentence : One of the most extraordinary scenes that ever tooko,a in a court of justi ce occurre d t hi s morn i ng upon Mr. , a t' - e 0 nell's appearance i n C our t.

It i s now , th en , s aid he, n ' t J a De' painful duty —very, ve r y p a i n f u l, i n d ee d, I feel it to state what that sentence is, and as the RS ri awarded it.

Id o no t n ow -mat of w. into the examination of th e questions of the case , o o l io particulars, by which this o ff ence of conspiring to er b it timidation has been carried to the conclusion at w h . ic „„ resb e now arrived; but I have now to state that thisfonu°'4 as it has been charged eby the indictment, and : h 0 0 4 11 the verdict of the jury, is that of a very h ied, meanor. A very slight degree of reflection, ha. i s p ; be sufficient to show any person that, in truto, I consider all the separate offences charged as 0.1 • 03; to parts of the conspiracy are mainly dependent which is its high offence—that is, the intent to in and excite and to overawe, and, as it bas t - p1 1 ,: 5 '00 ticularly set forth, by terror and by the display ' l , ts of 1,14 force.
