Prithee do not reject ne Till you've read our Prospectus. Early in November will be published, what every impartial in dividual will admit is much wanted in the Irish ;Metropolis, a really Honest, Able, and LIBERAL WEEKLY JOUR_ N AL, which it has been determined shall be called H E W 0 R L D. Now that we have sat down to draw up our Prospectus, we do solemnly protest that we would have given a considerable sum could we, by any means, have induced Lord Brougham and Viscount Palmerston to perform the duty for us, by way of proxy. The one would have described all that " THE WORLD" ought and will be, a thousand times better than we can ever hope to do ; while the other would have en shrouded all our errors and weaknesses in so murky a mantle of mystification, that they would have escaped the " audax et vigilans" scrutiny of the keenest customer in the New Police. Failing in our attempt either to enlist the ex-Chancellor, who was in hot haste to meet the hero of Waterloo at Dover, or the Prince of Protocols, who assured us that " he had not a paragraph in him," the last having been expended to complete the piscatory portion of the Queen's Speech, we had some notion of applying to Sir Edward Lytton Bulwer, but feared he would be too Whiggish and classical. Then we turned our eyes to Eaton-square, and thought of placing ourselves under an obligation to Sir William Alolesworth, but changed our mind, lest his Durham politics should creep through a transparent veil of Radicalism. Tom Wyse we were half in clined to solicit, but he wouldhave been rather heavy, and had enough to do in Waterford. Richard Sheil had the next place in our consideration, bat his style would have been too spark ling and light for us ; and, moreover, we knew that he was busied not only is preparing a patriotic address to the electors of Tipperary, but also in obtaining some knowledge of the ' tallow and molasses trade out of M'Culloch's " Commorcial Dictionary." Having at length seen that we must ourselves put on our apron, and take up our tools, for the due execution of the un dertaking, we were fairly bothered deciding whether the affair should be extremely long and dull, or uncommonly short and merry. Conscience whispered that we should speak the truth, but we remembered that the philosopher of Malmesbury has denounced all truth-telling public writers as dangerous to the safety of a corrupt and tyrannical commonwealth, and has re commended that both them and their lucubrations should be bundled off to some comfortable and hospitable country, like Australia or New Zealand. Our disposition and interest prompted us to treat a grave matter with becoming serious ness ; but then the advice of Pliny flashed upon our memory, (Ut in vita sic in studiis pulcherrimum, &c.) where ho recom mends us to mangle mirth and gravity in our studies. We feared to be vivacious and pointed, lest we should be condemned as frivolous and slanderous, and suffer that public displeasure which has ever been visited upon unhappy authors since the time that the Athenians burned the books of Protagoras, and the Romans hunted Diogenes and his companions out of their city, for telling more than they wished to hear. " Human Natur," as Dick Stapleton phrases it, would have inclined us to be a little vain, thereby following the counsel of Lord Bacon, who informs us that " the fame of Seneca and Cicero was kept fresh by their boasting; which seems to be like varnish, that not only makes wood shine, but last ; but wo drew ourselves up, and, upon reflection, decreed that self-praise, so far as we were concerned, should be monopolized by the corn pounders of Morison's Pills, and Holloway's Poor Alan's Oint ment. Here, then, we were at a dead-lock, and seizing our pen, first wrote a furious letter to Dr. Dionysius Lardner, com plaining that science had not yet discovered some piece of me chanism that might manufacture Prospectuses of all sorts and sizes by steam—then set about inditing one after the good old fashioned plan. The Amphitryon thinks the choicest blessing of life a re cherche repast; the exquisite prizes above all things a well-cut coat, or an unobjectionable cigar ; the Ennuyee pants for the last new novel, or the opera ; the Rational Man al Jne loves an honest and clever newspaper. But where is he to find it Most assuredly not among the Liberal Journals of Dublin ; for we, not long ago, went over the catalogue of the Liberal Me tropolitan prints with the talented Mr. George Robins, who confessed, with a yawn and a sigh, that beginning with the oldest, and leaving off with the youngest,—" the chief of the Irish Press," (a tribute, by the way, paid to our own bumble exerti,,ns by the honest Sheffield Iris)—" he never had the misfortune to have submitted to his inspection so bad a lot, or ene which would furnish such scanty materials for the puff ex traordinary." Spenser tells us that the Dublin Liberal News papers, or " carryers of newes," in his time were " fooles and notable rogues." Tom Moore, if we are to believe Willis, has described the present generation as downright blockheads ; while Mr. O'Connell, by way of driving home the nail, designates the whole concern " A PALTRY PRESS." These be hard lines, as the sailors say, but " non nosier hic serum." It will now, we imagine, be admitted that something in the shape of an able and honest Journal is required to " stop the gap." To put such an intellectual vehicle upon the road, we think, would be considered Quixotic, even by so speculative and excellent a judge of such matters as Mr. Peter Purcell. " A Party is necessary," exclaim the Tory parson, and the Liberal placehunter, "or else you will reckon but few readers." Upon this point we join issue, and hope, for the honour of civilized humanity, that as the Irish public maintain a sufficient number of newspapers to tell them falsehood, they will vouchsafe to sup port one which, at all risks, is determined to announce to them the truth. " All that mortal art hath wrought, In our cell returns to nought; The molten gold returns to clay, The polish'cl diamond melts aw a y. All is altered, all is flown— Nought stands fast but truth alone." In Politics we shall be Radicals, and devoted to the People, utterly regardless of the smiles or frowns of the select and interested few. Such a course, we know, is always pdrilous and often profitless— " Hard is his task who edits—thankless job— A weekly journal for the factious mob ; Alike undone, or if he praise or rail ; For this affects his safety, that his sale : He sinks,• at last, in luckless limbo set— If loud, for libal—and if dumb, for debt." We shall always be happy, when we can agree with those men who, however they may sometimes err, have rendered efficient service, and made many sacrifices for the eattse of liberty; whioh o b l d u s t o u sh u - te promisesall no t t advocate o sufferiuz tt w m h ll on s a h a l I r c o t policy which er likely to be realized— " My father, Time, is weak and grey, With waiting for a better day," We shall judge the Government by its ac's, and shall oppose alPremier, be he Whig, Tory, or Radical, when we find him averse to the removal of the remnant of the Penal Code, which, absurdly enough, forbids the appointment of a Roman Catho lic Chancellor ;—a Colonial Secretary, when he resists the Ballot ;—or even so amiable and enlightened a Statesman as the present Irish Secretary, when he seems half disinclined to grant an increase of popular privileges to the Irish people. Conscientiously believing that Ireland never can become gene rally happy and contented until she again has the advantage of a DOMESTIC LEGISLATURE, we shall persevere, by arguments and facts, to advocate the REPEAL 'OF THE UNION, as not more beneficial to Ireland than the Sister Kingdom. We will bring into the field the heavy artillery of reason, aided by the light brigade of wit and humour. We shall he staid with the steady, and mirthful with the light-hearted. Pursuing "the even tenor of our way," we shall " run on glittering like a brook in the sunshine," " From grave to gay, from lively to severe." The Statesman will find us political, and the Lawyer will discover that we know a thing or two; the Physician shall proclaim us lovers of the healing art ; the Sportsman shall learn that we can clear a muntry with him. " THE WORLD" to the Lady of Fashion shall be as a Court Gazette, and the Agriculturist shall not have to complain of our negligence ; the interests of the Merchant and Manufacturer shall receive our close attention; the United Service will find us, as of old, at tached to the cloth ; we shall " take our garland and singing robes about us" with the Poet ; visit the studio of the Artist ; and deal our impartial criticism at the Theatre.

There were nine London and three country, making in the whole 109 cases in the vacation, nearly all of which have been granted. IN THE MATTER OF WILLIAM HENRY GREY A somewhat important point arose. The insolvent applied on the last Court day to be discharged on sure tps, when it appeared that he had been taken on a writ of capias by a Judge's order, issued on an affigavit that he was about to leave the country. He went to prison, petitioned the Court, and appeared to be admitted to bail. Mr. Commissioner BOWEN then said the insolvent could not be bailed ; he was arrested on a special order, and, according to a decision, the Court would not grant the application. The matter stood over, and on Wednesday it was again mentioned. Mr. Commissioner BOWEN expressed himself strongly on the point. The insolvent could not be admitted to bail ; he had the power to c ontrovert the affidavit, or to comply with the section in other respects. The Solicitor stated that the decision would seriously affect the insolvent. There were other cases similarly circumstanced. WESTMINSTER COURT OF REQUESTS. BIDDY M`CARTHY V. THE SALESMAN. " Plase yer boners," said Biddy M'Carthy, as she jumped into the plaintiff's box, " plase yer honers, and it's a hard-working cratchure that I am, and gits a bit uv a . living se lli ng p i ttyatees , t urne t s (t urn i ps ), an d a f ew cabbidges and greens, yer boners, as that same gentle man (pointing to the defendant, who was a Covent-gar den salesman) will be afther relathing to yer if he'll spike the thruth- A COMMISSIONER-Don't be quite so circumstantial, Biddy. Let us have the case without all this garnishing of " pittyatees and turnets." Biddy (cutseying)—Sor yer shall yer boners—more power to ye for settin a poor cratchure like meeself right, for I'm a lone woman (curtseying), bless yer bo ners. Last bye day I wint to the garden (Covent -gar den) to be lookin Other a few make-ups ; and so whin I come to the gintleman that's fornenst yer, I clapped my eyes on a lot as jist plased me, yer boners. " What's the say," sis I, " for these - same two half sieves of pittyatees ?" " Twinty pince," sis he. " They're mine," sis I. And so yer boners I give the gintleman two shillin, and it was every flake I had, yer boners, and he was to turn me fourpince back on it. Well, I puts the pittyatees into my basket, and waited for me change, but the divil a bit was he in a hurray to give it me. " Where's the fourpinc e ?" sis I. " What four pince ?" sis he. " Out of the two shillin," sis I, and the gintleman pershisted I was alther blarne3ing him—the Lord help me, yer honors! A COMMISSIONER (to the salesman) —What have you to say to this claim ? The salesman solemnly declared that Biddy had not give❑ him the 25., and assured the Commissioners that it was an impudent attempt to obtain money 'from him. `• Hear him ! hear him !" shouted Biddy, " Did yer ever hear the likes of that ? And would'nt I be after coming to the Coort for more than two shillin, with a perjured oath, gintlemen ? Swear me—l'm a lone wieldy—and spake nothi n but the truth, so I will." The salesman said he was also ready to swear that Biddy had never given him the two shillings. Biddy—Mushy dear, do yer hear that ! (lifting up her hands and eyes to the open skylight in the roof.) A long discussion took place between the Commis sioners as to the propriety of permitting Biddy to swear to her statement. "It was not likely," said several Commissioners, " that . a respectable tradesman would give himself the trouble to attend a summons of this nature, unless he was positive he had not received the money. On the other hand, it was urged that he might be mistaken, and that the recognition of such a doctrine would te►l fearfully against the poor. In the midst of the discussion Biddy exclaimed—Let me swear to the two shillin— yer losing time, yer honors. A CommissroNEß—Hold yonr tongue, woman ; we are consulting on your case. Biddy—And is it consultin ye are ! Will ye be afther lettin me take me oath if ye plase ? You'll find that's the law, yer honors. A COMMISSIONER—Y ou have been in a Court of Requests before, Biddy ? Biddy—One'st, I believe. The salesman again assured the Commissioners that Biddy had not given him the 2s ; but Biddy " pershisted" that she had, and demandedln he sworn. The oth was accordingly tendered, and Biddy took 77,000 and odd Romish saints to witness that the " gintleman" had the money. The award was made accordingly. Biddy —Gad bless yer boners! I'll (turning to the salesman) be tAfther daling wid you agin, misther.—(A laugh.) Salesman—Not if I know it. I have no doubt ( a d_ dressing the Commissioners) that you'll s hortly see me here again upon a similar summons. They'll be sure to try it on, and next time it will be a little stronger—half a sovereign or so. " Oh, hear him," said Biddy, winking her eye to a " female friend" along with her ; " only hear" (lowering her voice)—" only hear the spalpeen, Nelly." " Yes," said Nelly, significantly, " the :noore's the pitty ye didn't give hint a bit of goold ;" and Nelly nudged Biddy and threw a look of regret into her long, cunning Irish countenance. " The moore's the pitty, so it is, my dear." " Thrue for yer, avourneen," said Bichly—" flinty for 'Yet' ;" and Biddy and Nelly walked out of Court chat tering sympathetically with each other.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. NEW CO U R 7'. (Before the Commol:,1 . SERJEANT, Mr. Sergeant ARABIN, and Mr. Alderman GIBBS, &c. & — e.) THE ELEPHANT AND CASTLE GANG. —George Tassel, aged 19, David Rice, aged 22, and Harry Adams, aged 19, were indicted for stealing a box, containing a quantity of articles of linen and wearing apparel, the property of Elizabeth Smith ; and Elizabeth Rice, aged 19, and Mary Luxton, aged 22, were charged with receiving the same, well knowing it to be stolen. Mr. Phillips defended the two Rices, and Mr. Doane appeared for Adams and Luxton. The prosecutrix stated that she was going to a place of service on East -terrace, and she saw the male prisoners near to the Elephant and Castle, when she engaged Tassell to carry her trunk. She told him to cross the roa with her, and he did so, but within a minute she lost sight of him, and Adams detained her a short time by condoling with her, and promising to go in search of Tassell. She did not see either of them till they were in custody, several days after when part of her property was found at the lodgings of the female prisoners. Evidence was adduced to prove that the women had disposed of some of the articles, but as it did not go far enough to make them receivers with a guilty knowledge, they were not put on their defence. Mr. DOANE addressed the Jury for Adams; and Tassell, who had no Counsel, denied that he was the person. The Jury found Tassell and Adams guilty, and acquitted the three other prisoners. The LEARNED JUDGE told the prisoners that they were well known as part of a gang, who stationed themselves about the Elephant and Castle, for the infamous purpose of robbing unwary travellers of anything they could get hold of. In this case they had robbed a poor girl of all the little property she had in the world. They had been convicted over and over again, and they must now take the consequences. The sentence of the Court was, that they be transported beyond the seas for the term of seven years. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HUUSE. A man of respectable appearance, named Thomas Trimmer, was charged with having committed an assault upon Mr. Lewis Lloyd, of the house of .Jones, Lloyd and Co., the bankers, under the circumstances stated in the following evidence. Aldermen PIM And GIBBS sat with the LORD MAYOR, in adjudication. Mr. Lloyd, who is a man advanced in years, stated that the defendant formerly kept an account at the banking house in which he (Mr. Lloyd) was a partner. The de fendant subsequently became a member of the Stock Ex change, but was not allowed to remain in the house, was unfortunate, and was obliged to take the benefit of the Insolvent Act. He had, upon closing business with the house, left a balance of 1111. 25., for which he men tioned he had given a check which should be paid in. The check, however, never arrived, and the amount of balance lay in the hands of the Cashier. Some time since, the defendant called at the banking-house to make in. quiry about the money, but as it was known that be came out under the Insolvent Act, it was considered necessary to obtain some further intelligence about the correctness of the claim, and he was told to produce his books. That morning the defendant called between ten and eleven o'clock, and waited in the banking-house until witness en tered. At that moment the defendant said, going up to witness, '° If I am rightly informed," and struck him on the head with an umbrella. The defendant was then given into the custody of a policeman. The LORD MAYOR (to the prisoner)—Did you not put that 1111. 2s. in your schedule in passing through the In solvent Court? Defendant—No, my Lord Mayor. I did not know at the ti me t h at the balance was there, bat having been informed that such was the case, I merely called to ascertain the fact, but without meaning to appro priate it. Alderman PIRIE—Why, it was the property of your cre ditors, and you have no right to a farthing of it. The Loan MAYOR—Your assignees will I dare say learn by somt means or other that the money is at the banking house, and will no doubt know; what course to pursue. But what induced you to strike Mr. Lloyd ? The defendant— I applied to one of the cashiers when I heard that there was a balance in my favour for permission for that amount, but he told me that Mr. Lloyd required to see my book, and I told him I never kept one.-_( Our Reporter understood the defendant to intend to say , that being exasperated at the disappointment he experienced, he raised his hand against Mr. Lloyd, whom he considered to be the great cause of the annoyance. Alderman GIBBS thought that such a case ought to be taken before a Jury for the purpose of making a greater ex ample of the defendant. The defendant said that Mr. Lloyd had no right to de tain the money ; at all events it was satisfactory to know that the balance was due to him. The Lonn NlAvon—lt is due to your assignees and not to you. You have no more right to it than I have. Mr. Lloyd, in answer to a question from the. Lord Mayor, said that the defendant kept an account at his house in the year 1834. The LORD MAYOR—And how long is it since the de fendant came out under the Insolvent Act? Defendant —I do not exactly know, my Lord. The LORD MAYOR—You must be able to guess on such a subject as your imprisonment and subsequent discharge under the Insolvent Act. Defendant—lt must be between two and three years ago, but I have no clear recollection of the exact time. The LORD MAYOR—My Brother Magistrates and I am of opinion that this is a most gross case of assault. It is not like an act of violence provoked at the moment. You watched the approach of Mr. Lloyd, and no doubt have nourished a vindictive feeling towards him. We think it would be advisable to send the case before a Jury ; but Mr. Lloyd expresses a wish that we should exercise a summary jurisdiction. We therefore fine you 51., and you may have the alternative of imprisonment for two months. You must also find two sureties in 501. each, and be bound over yourself in the sum of 1001. to keep the peace towards Mr. Lloyd for 12 months. The defendant said that he should pay the fine, and pro cure the security required. lie denied that he bad enter tained an idea of defrauding his creditors of a farthing, and declared that he could not allow any man to insinuate such a thing with impunity. Neither the amount of the penalty, nor the bail having appeared during the sitting of his Lordship, the defendant's commitment was made out, and he was taken away in custody. A young man named Richard Barlow was charged with having committed a forgery. Mr. Joseph Seddon, of Manchester, banker, came up to town upon ascertaining that be had cashed a forged bill of exchange upon the house of Messrs. Leaf and Co., to consult the City authorities on the subject. Mr. Hobler, the Chief Clerk at the Mansion-house, advised him to ap prehend the prisoner himself wherever he might see him, without warrant or other authority. Mr. Seddon left the justice-room determined to do as he was advised if he should have an opportunity, but he little expected that an opportunity was so close at band. As he was walking to w.srds Messrs. Leaf and Co.'s warehouse be came plump upon the prisoner in Bread -street, and immediately collared him and gave him into the custody of Daniel Forrester the officer. Mr. Seddon stated that he had had transactions in busi ness with the prisoner, who had been in trade, and in partnership with his (prisoner's) father, as oil-merchant. Witness here put in a bill of exchange for 4921. 135., pur porting tb be drawn by the prisoner, and accepted by Messrs. Leaf, and Co. Witness discounted the bill. He had been in the habit of discounting bills for the prisoner, and they were always paid, with the exception of the bill in question, which became due on the 17th of August, and was dishonoured. It was made payable at Devizes. Mr. James Coles, jun., of N 0.39, Old 'Change, one of the partners in the house of Leaf arid Co., stated that he was acquainted with the signatures of the partners in the firm who accepted bills. Mr. Leaf and Mr. Coles, wit ness's father, and Mr. Smith were the only persons in the house who accepted bills, and the name of the firm on the bill in question was not in the hand-writing of either of those gentlemen. The LORD MAYOR asked the prisoner what he had to say for himself ? Prisoner—l do not know anything of the forgery at all. I have had transactions with a person of the name of Leaf, who represented himself as one of the firm of Leaf and Co., of London, merchants, and he had no idea that the person was an impostor. The LORD MAYOR (to Mr. Coles)—Do you know any. thing of the prisoner? Mr. Coles—Not at all. I never saw him before. The LORD MAYOR —.WeII, prisoner, of course you can produce this Mr. Leaf ? Prisoner—No, my Lord; he went out of the country three or four weeks ago. Mr. Seddon said that three or four bills of the prisoner's bad been previously paid at Denison's house. The prisoner was remanded. _ Ilinde, the conductor of one of Chancellor's omni buses, was charged by Solomon Josephs with having used abusive language, and committed an assault. The complainant stated that he was a passenger in the omnibus, and that without any provocation whatever the defendant reviled him with the most odious epithets, and then refused to exhibit his number, and concluded the course of offence by violently pushing the complainant in the street and jumping into the omnibus. Iwo persons of the Jewish persuasion, confirmed the statement of the complainant, as regarded the ill language and the assault. . _ _ _ The defendant positively denied the truth of the accu sation, and declared that he was the pr'rson who was really insulted, that he never pushed the complainant, but merely followed him for the fare. A witness confirmed the defendant's version of the affiir in some respect. The LORD MAYOR and Alderman PIRIR, considered that the case was clearly made out against the defendant, and fined him forty shillings, which he immediately paid. The decision was notified on the back of the defendant's license, greatly to his mortification. GUILDHALL. EXTENSIVE R013111,111'. —Ann Dearlove, John Dearlove, Daniel Dearlove, James Dearlove, Charles Groves, and Richard ma, were charged with having been concerned in stealing or receiving property to a considerable amount, belonging to Messrs. Jones and Co., of Ludgate-hill. Mr. Steole attended for the prosecution ; Mr. Clarkson, Mr. Wontner, and Mr. Humphrey for the prisoners. After a short conversation, it was arranged that the case of each prisoner should be taken separately. Mr. Steele said he would first proceed against John Dearlove for stealing, and then against the other prisoners for receiving. Inspector Torre deposed that on the 18th inst. he searched the house of John Dearlove, 3, Charlton-crescent, Islington Green, and found a quantity of glass ; finished and unfinished, consisting cf decanters, wine-glasses, &C., which he placed in the box r roduced marked No. 5. He afterwards went to the premises of Messrs. Jones, and there took John Dearlove into custody for having robbed his employers. The property was found in different pacts of the house, the great ,r part cf it ii) white and brown wrappers. On the 13th he again went to the house, and in the room of a loiger found a box full of glass, marked No. 13. Sarah Hughes deposed that the glass found on the se cond occasion was given to her by the wife of the prisoner, after the Inspector had been on the first occasion. Mr. Horatio Jones deposed that the prisoner had been in his employ as a porter up to the time of his being taken intocustody. He identified a salt-cellar from No. 5, and a milk jug, which had not been sold, they being in an unfinished state. They were plain for cutting. The whole of the contents of the box he had no doubt were his property. He could also identify some of the glasses from No. 13. Cross-examined 4 Mr. Clarkson —The salt-cellar came from Messrs. Silvers and Stephens, of Stowbridge, who arc glass- makers. I can't say in ?that year it came. They make for a variety of houses as well as ours. I don't think they make any of this description, because it is one indivi. dual pattern. There is the remnant of an old price mark at the bottom. I can't say that I ever saw it on our premises. I have no doubt that I have seen the milk-jug there, but cannot speak positively. I have seen the cut wine-glasses on our premises, but cannot tell the year. I can identify the goblet in No. 13, because no other house has glass of that pattern. I have not searched to ascertain whether that be so or not. The value of the glass in No. 5 is 131...15. 5d., and in No. 13, 71. ss_ 2d. Mr. Clarkson submitted that there was no proof that the property produced belonged to Messrs. Jones. Mr. 'Alderman KELLY thought there was sufficient evidence to go before a jury, and ordered the prisoner to be committed. Daniel Dearlove's case was next gone into. Inspector Torre stated that on the 10th September, he searched the house of the prisoner, at No. 3, Hill-street, Peckham, and found there the glass contained in box No. 1. It was in the box on the first floor. There were also nineteen sovereigns. The prisoner said that he had the property from his brother John, to whom the money also belonged. _ _ Sergeant Waller deposed that he apprehended the pri soner at the oil shop of Mr, Walker, High-street, Peck ham, and charged him with having some stolen glass in his possession. He said he knew nothing about it ; if there was any thing wrong, he got it honest enough. He said he had got it from a person in London, but did not know where he lived. He afterwards said he had got it from Ludgate-hill, from his brother. Mr. Jones identified a glass for an inkstand, and also a decanter, but, on cross-examination, said he could not swear to ever having seen them on the premises. The value of the articles found was 21. 13s. 81. The prisoner was committed. Charles Groves was next charged. Inspector Torre searched the house of Groves, No. 4, Goldsmith's-place, Gough-square, on the 10th Sept., and found a lamp, soma pieces belonging to a lamp, and a decanter. Sergeant Waller deposed that the prisoner told him he had bought the lamp in Hatton-garden of Messrs. Mes senger._ _ _ . Mr. Jones said that they received lamps of this descrip tion from Mr. Bradley, of Hatton-garden, the agent to Messrs. Messenger, of Birmingham. The pattern was made expressly for them, and they never sent lamps out without trying. The one produced had never been tried. The property was worth 5/. 17s. Cross-examined—l can't swear that I ever purchased the lamp or had it in my possession. I can't swear that I ever saw any of the articles before they were in possession of the officer. Groves has a plan of cleaning lamps that are discoloured is make them look like new. Lamps of this kind may be sold to other persons, but we consider it our pattern. Mr. Clarkson submitted that there was no case what ever against the prisoners. Mr. Steele requested that the case might stand over, in order that Mr. Bradley might be sent for. Mr. Alderman KELLY said it appeared that the issuing of these lamps was not confined to the house of Messrs. Jones, and as the one now produced could not be identified, the prisoner must be discharged. Mr, Steele said he would now proceed with the case against Richard Hill. Inspector Torre deposed that on the 12th of September he went to the house of the prisoner at Brighton, and found the articles in box No. 12. The prisoner's wife and family were in the house. It was a beer-house. He was apprehended about four miles from Brighton, and witness told him that a quantity of glass, found in his possession, had bcen stolen. He said ho knew nothing of the transac tion, and said that what was there belonged to his wife prior to his marriage. The wife of the prisoner is Mrs. Dearlove's daughter. Cross-examined by Mr. Humphreys—l don't know whose name is over the door. I have heard that Ann Dearlove is the licensed owner of the house. The nurse in the house said that the boxes belonged to Mrs. Dearlove, and had not been opened for some years. Mrs. Dearlove was found at Cartfield, nursing a lady. Mr. Jones identified some of the articles found in the house, as corresponding with those which had been missed from their premises. The value was 71. ss. 2d. Some of the articles had been made within the last six months. Hill said he had been married about two years and a half. In cross-eaamination witness admitted that similar ar ticles might have been supplied to other houses, and that glasses of the same description as the tumblers produced and been sold by him. Mr. Humphrey submitted that the property was not identified, and also that the house in which the prisoner was found did not belong to him but to Ann Dearlove. After a lengthened discussion, Hill was ordered to be committed. Ann Dearlove was then charged with receiving. Mr. Steele said the prisoner had acknowledged receiving the property from her son John. Mr. Payne—lf you believe her, Hill is innocent. Mr. Steele submitted that there was a double receiving. Inspector Torre deposed to apprehending the prisoner and her son James Dearlove, at Cur:field, Sussex, in the house of a surgeon, where they were occupied as servants. He found some glasses in a box, belonging to James Dearlove. Heard Mrs. Dearlove, this morning, say to Mrs. Hill that Hill was totally innocent, and knew no more of it than the child unborn. Nothing was found on Mrs. Dearlove. Mr. Steele said he would not proceed further against her, and she was discharged. James Dearlove, in whose box-glass had been found to the amount of 15s. 4d., was, after a short examination, committed for trial. Mr. Steele said he had several other cases, but as the Court had already been occupied for about three hours, the further investigation was adjourned until this day. Q UEEN- S Q UA RE. DIVIDEND DAY. —Enoch Jones, a middle-aged Welsh man,was charged with drunkenness. Police Constable Ansell, 77 B, stated that ho found the defendant in Grosvenor-place late on the preceding night, he was lying on the pavement insensibly drunk, and sur rorrounded by several bad characters of both sexes. Wit ness took him to the station-house, and upon seat ching him he found 791. in notes and gold upon his person. Mr. BURRELL asked the defendant what he had to say for himself? Defendant said he could not deny having got drunk, but it was on a most interesting occasion, which was that of receiving his first dividend from the Bank since his marriage with a lady well to do. Another time, however. he would take care and have his drink at home. Mr. BurfaELL fined the defendant 55., and told him that he ought to be thankful to the Police for having taken such good care of his property. HATTON GARDEN. IMPORTANT TO PRoFECUTORS IN THE CENTRAL CRI MINAL COURT.—CHARGE OF CONSPIRACY.-After the night charges had been disposed of, a person named Sharp entered the dike, and handing the Magistrate on the bench, Mr. BRODIEFtIP e a parchment, which he stated to be an indictment for a conspiracy, requested that he would bind over the parties named on the back of it to give evi dence before the Grand Jury at the Old Bailey. Mr. BRODERIP unless I hear their evidence, cer tainly. Mr. Marriott, the Clerk, said that although similar ap plications were not usual at other offices, they were by no means uncommon at this, in consequence of its vicinity to the Central Criminal Court. By the law, the grand jury at that Court could not take cognizance of any case which was not . sent them by a Magistrate, and in cases of this sort, the Mat:ristrates of this office had frequently bound over pa in -.. tics order to enable them to go before the grand ,:,, 17 The Middlesex Sessions were still open to parties Qi et . : ing for a conspiracy, without the intervention of ck Magis trate, but not the Central Criminal Court. Mr. BRODEUIP did not feel inclined to bind over parties without knowing whether they bad evidence to give. The case ought to have originated at that office in the first instance. He must request that strangers would withdraw in order that he might consult with Mr. Marriott on thee subject. The Court was then cleared. On our rev . e.. mittance, Mr. BRODERIP, addressing tho applican t, said that. he must refuse it's application, because the pract i ce of bind. ing over people in this way might pork very great ` °pros. sion. He might bind over persons to give ev Attlee , e l, O had no evidence to give; besides, he considered that th e issuing a summons, or a warrant, if neces. parties accused ought to ho present.

TIMES.—It is generally believed i❑ the City this afternoon, that the house of Rothschild in Paris will in terfere to cover the drafts of the United States Bank on Messrs. Hottinguer and Co. The current version of the transaction most accredited, for there are several afloat, is, that of the whole amount of these drafts, which is 6,200,000 francs, or about 248,0001., the amount of 60,0601. had been accepted for honour of third parties, and that the remaininc, amount of 188,0001. had been, or would be, accepted by Messrs. Rothschild, of course under security given. Nothing is as yet, however, cer tainly known on the subject. POST.—The information we were enabled to give yesterday with respect to the movements of Mr. Jaudon at Paris, will have prepared our readers for the result we have now to communicate. It appears that the bilis which the United Stetes Bank has drawn for seven mil lions of francs on Messrs. nottinguer and Co., of Paris and Havre, but which these gentlemen did Oct feel war ranted, in justice to themselves,to accept, will be provided fur at maturity by Messrs. Rothschild and Sons, to whom the agencies have been transferred. It has been rumoured that they will likewise undertake the agency of the bank in this country, on the retirement of Mr. Jaudon. This requires confirmation. It is well known that ar rangements were in progress for again placing the ac count in the hands of Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co., but that they were never completed, in consequence of certain conditions exacted by that eminent firm as indispensable for their guidance and security, and to which the United States Bank had neither acceded nor the contrary, the determination of the President having never been declared upon the subject. Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co. have doubtless expressed their disapprobation of an unlimited issue of post-notes, or possibly declared themselves to the effect that this novel medium of remittance should be discontinued entirely. If such be the fact, we are of opinion that Messrs. Baring and Co. have done no more than was dictated by a proper sense of pru dence, and no more than it was incumbent upon them to do, as a house to which, from its high character and long jitanding, the whole of the com mercial world are apt to look as a precedent and a beacon. We are unable to say any thing conclusive as to the London agency at present, but should the matter turn out to be as has been this afternoon reported, we should hope, on every account, that Messrs. Rothschild have observed an equal caution. We are the less dis posed to believe that any thing positive can be known upon the subject, as the appointment of Mr. Jaudon's successor or successors in London may be presumed not to rest with himself. Be the event as it may, there can be no question but the Philadelphia Bank will be com pelled henceforth to pursue a very different system from that which it has pursued since the failure of the three great English houses, otherwise it may in the end fall into the same difficulties that they did. If the President of the establishment had only sent specie to take up his drafts to the extent proposed, and which it was as much his duty to do as it is that of the Bank of England to pay its notes in gold, the interposition of Messrs. Rothschild and Sons, in order to give protection to his signature in the French cities, would have been unnecessary. It seems a little too much that a foreign bank should be planted permanently among us, to interfere with the proper functions of our own national bank, and to maintain an injurious monopoly of foreign imports, Perhaps the in terference of Messrs. Rethschild and Sons is to he con fined to the duty of winding up the affairs of the United States Bank in Europe. The markets are glutted with American cottons and American stocks of all kinds, and, as there is no longer any demand for either, we do not see what else they can have to do. Mr. Jaudon is understood to have returned to town in the course of the afternoon. The current rate of interest in '.he discount market is 5 1. 1. to 6 per cent. per annum. There is but little activity in the commercial walks, and there is conse quently by no means an extensive demand for ac commodation. HERALD.—The private letter of this journal from Paris appears to have afforded the best information which has transpired respecting the causes which in duced the respectable firm of Hottinguer and Co. to dishonour the bills of the Bank of the United States ; but since the morning it has transpired that, by the ex ertions of Mr. Jaudon, arrangements have been made through the great house of Rothschild and Co., by which they will take up the agency, and honour all the drafts of the United States Bank now in a temporary abeyance of credit. For the sake of public credit generully we are happy to be enabled to notice the great probability of such a result ; nevertheless, it cannot be denied that the United States Bank has received a blow with regard to its public credit that must seriously re-act upon the credit of the commercial interests of the United States at large. We are not disposed to be harsh in our remarks ; but there is a strong impression amongst most of our manufacturing and commercial interests that the Bank of the United States, under the administration of Mr. Biddle, has abused its true banking power by the reckless adoption of jobbing in produce, and its neglect of the true principles and action of banking, by directly, as well as indirectly, lending itself to unprofitable commercial speculations. The as surance of this great difficulty being finally settled we trust may be relied upon as certain ; else we cannot foresee what may be the result on either side of the At lantic. Mr. Jaudon has returned from Paris to London, and his arrival may lead to further satisfactory expla nations. The state of the weather, and the subject to which we have already referred, coupled with the influence of ' the closing settlement of the Foreign Market, has thrown a great damp upon Consuls, and the British Funds generally. Since writing the above we have more reason to be - lievc that the eminent firm of Rothschild and Co. ha , fe determined to undertake the agency of the U•ait.ed States Bank under powerful guarantees. This act. will, if confirmed to the full extent, tend much to ; - Appaase the incipient appearance of an uneasy state. of our Money Markets, and it will strongly indicate their sa gacity in foreseeing its immediate necessity. PARIS MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL NE WS-OVEDNESDAY, SEPT. 18.', Money is more scarce in the market to-dr,y, and con fidence rather depressed. The last news from Russia has produced an unsatisfactory effect upon. the minds of the best-informed speculators. Great activity prevails at the Corn Market ; corn and grain were still in de mand, and have risen in price. The late riots in Brit tanny, near Mons, have prevented the free transmission of corn ; but these troubles having been promptly sup pressed, the prices will, it is hoped, shortly resume their former standard. The bakers continue to experience a loss, notwithstanding the enormous price of bread, whicb, has risen to 17} sous (SA.d.) the quartern loaf. The speculators in corn are making large purchases, whic h must tend to hasten the crisis. Fresh dem:lnds, or large orders from abroad, will throw the Corn Market into confusion. BOURSE, FOUR O'CLOCK.—Tbe timely intervention of the house of Rothschild has induced M. Hotti.)guer, the banker, at last to accept the bills of the United States Bank. At the opening of the Bourse business was rather flat, and money difficult to be obtained, bat in the course of the day some extensive purchases gave• an impetus to the market. The Five per Cent• , w ere not quoted for the end of the month, but vre . r e done for cash at 1101. 60c. The Three per Cents. closed at 80f. sc. for cash, and 81f. 10c. for account.
