Mr. O'CoNNELL's new scheme of a Federal move ment, which was formally propounded in the last manifesto issued from Derrynane, does not appear to have been received so favourably by the Repeal agi tators as the Hon. and Learned Gentleman antici pated. We say " anticipated," because there was a confident tone in his communication on the subject, which implied his belief that Federalism, on his puis sant recommendation, would be welcomed with eagerness by his trusting countrymen, and occupy their attention to the exclusion of total and unqua lified Repeal. But on this occasion Mr. O'CONNELL seems to have been somewhat out in his reckoning, and to have over-estimated his own influence. Symptoms of dissatisfaction are beginning to exhibit themselves among the Repealers and their organs, who do not at all relish the idea of being compelled to stop half way, when they had made active preparations for going boldly on to their journey's end ; and more than one journal has pretty openly intimated its opinion that Federalism is little or no better than a humbug, calculated only to amuse and divert the at tention of the people, without being productive of any substantial, comprehensive, or permanent good. The Belfast Vindicator, which seems nervously solicit ous to speak the truth in the gentlest and least offensive manner possible, says with marked sig nificance—considering the peculiarly awkward position in which it is placed—" There is no concealing the fact that some discontent has been expressed by many parties that Mr. O'CONNELL ap pears to have forced the adoption of the Federal prin ciples upon the people." Two of the principal Dublin journals have expressed themselves to a similar effect; and Mr. GAVAN Durrv, the sanguine and energetic editor of the Nation—who, it may be remembered, rushed from the undesired embraces of the Richmond Penitentiary about the same time with his great leader —thus records his opinion of Federalism in a respect ful, well-written letter to Mr. O'CONNELL :—" Fe deralism, as it is interpreted by some of the soundest men of that party, demands local Parliaments for the three divisions of the empire, and an imperial one in common. Now, if this principle be in sisted on, Federalism is an impracticability, for it implies a re-organisation of the British Constitution. Apart from any other objection to it, it raises a new and tremendous difficulty, which does not exist against Repeal. We want to restore an institution of which we have been robbed; the Federalists, who insist on pushing their principle as far as it will go, want a reconstruction of the empire upon a new basis. If I am not deceived in believing this to be the object of the party, are we not wooing shipwreck if we embark in the same boat with them ? Moreover, some of the Federalists would give us a legislative council, consisting of only one chamber. Here we have a second innovation, and, of course, a second difficulty. They ask a thing foreign to the British Consti- 1 tution, and a thing which, for that reason, would un doubtedly be refused." In the above passage Mr. DUFFY clearly proves, not only that Federalism is an impracticability, but that it is an impossibility— Repeal itself not more so. His opinions are, at the present crisis, well worthy of attention ; for, as editor of the Nation, he exercises an influence over a large body of the more uncompromising Repeal agitators ; and this influence it is pretty clear he will be exceedingly reluctant to exert in favour of Federalism. From these and other indica tions, it is manifest that Mr. O'CONNELL will have to encounter a more decided opposition than he had calculated on, in his endeavour to substi tute Federalism for total Repeal ; and we should not be at all surprised were his next manifesto from Derrynane to announce his abandonment of the mea sure in deference to the popular wish. For our own • part, we regard the one crotchet in precisely the same light as we regard the other—that is to say, we think them both equally imprac ticable, and if practicable, pregnant with hazard not only to England but to Ireland also. Impressed with this conviction, we are by no means too sorry to see the Irish mind beginning to be divided between the three visionary schemes of Triennial Parliaments, Federalism, and a total Repeal of the Union, for by such division the agitation for unconditional Repeal will be greatly weakened, and the question will cease to wear that alarming aspect which it wore throughout the memo rable year of the monster meetings, when Ire land bade fair to be at length united on the subject of the restoration of her domestic legislature. We have said that we do not regret this division among the Irish agitators ; we should add, however, that in one respect it is to be regretted, inasmuch as it will tend to impress Sir ROBERT PEEL with the belief that the Repealers are not so united or so formidable a body as he had imagined them to be, and conse quently furnish him with a plea for conceding less to the sister country than he had previously determined on, for all the world knows that he is one of those statesmen who yield nothing, except from the pressure of necessity. The report which we published on Thursday last of the proceedings at the Maidstone Petty Sessions involves a case, the importance of which is not to be measured by the miserable amount of the property — ten turnips valued at 4d.—for which the unfortunate delinquent, charged with:the offence of stealing it, was brought before a bench of Kentish magistrates. Those magistrates, we at once admit, had no discre tion leit them in this case of SA.RAII GREENGROVE. The prosecutor, a farmer named BAXTER, disregard ing the statement of the unhappy girl herself, who acknowledged that she had taken up four turnips, prompted by the cravings of fierce hunger—unmoved by the simple but impressive appeal of the Chairman, who recommended him not to press the charge, per sisted in his demand for " justice" (1); and the Bench sentenced her to pay the value of the turnips and the amount of the penalty and the costs. Now let us examine the facts of this case a little more narrowly. They may supply a key to the origin of prevalent offences—aye, f prevalent crimes of a far deeper dye, and of consequences infinitely mo?e wasting and ter rible. The girl, aged fifteen years only, was on her re turn from Marden, where she had been hopping ; and, exhausted with fatigue, thirst and hunger, she was observed by a labourer in BAXTER'S service to enter one of prosecutor's fields, and iciraw, not ten, but four, turnips. The Chairman remarked on the posi tion he was placed in by her own .admissions, sug gesting, however, that, as she did neat appear to have committed any depredations of this. kind before, he would leave it to Mr. BAXTER'S discretion whether to proceed further or not. BASTER, not be cause he disputed the fact of the' girl's being unimplicated in any former depredation, but "because he had lost a great :many turnips by other offenders," and been, subject to, several severe " depredations" lately on his farm— insisted on pressing the charge against GREENGROVE. The Chairman in vain pointed out the difference between her case and that of the fold offenders, of whom he was now speaking. BAXTEn, who talked as if it was a question of hungry rabbi ts, instead of human beings, remarked that 4 " he had a great difficulty in catching them, and he was determined to make an example"- —not of them, the " old offenders"—but "of the figs .t one he ,could lay hold of," old or new. The Chs ir man was thus compelled to proceed in the discharge of his painful duty. When he had delivered the sentence of the Court, the wretched girl stated " she: :had no money." With a degree of humanity, which it does not seem that the prosecutor had the merit o& originating, the Court desired her to sit down ; and we can well ima gine the trembling anxiety with whi cls she must have awaited the making out of the order to commit her to gaol in default of payment. Was she , though young in years, old in crime ?—an experie ed depredator ? —a regularly trained "depredator 4?" 'Was she , of that character and those connexion s which would justify, in the opinion of some, thes remorseless se verity of the farmer towards her ? Why, what followed ? Let us judge of the 'probabilities by the facts. A little boy entered t.i,e court crying bitterly, approached the bench, ;aid tendered the amount " decreed and decerned against her," as the Scotch lawyers would say, whicva amount he had raised by taking his shoes fruns off his own feet and pawning them. Thi was the poor delinquent's brother. Will any man undertake to say that the girl can have been a, depraved and ac customed thief, or her family one sar,pported by field " depredations," or other courses -of habitual dis honesty, in the face of so touchig an example of disinterested affection as this subsi'at,ing between the brother and the sister ? Is theirs ss case with many parallels in higher ranks and among relatives of much ampler and loftier fortunes ? Do the records of our courts of law, or our criminal judioature, supply many such exemplifications of that princilge of pure affection which prompts one individual to. denude himself of his own property to rescue another, .his kinsman, from the inability to meet the amerce' nisnt of a criminal court or the finding of a jury in a, -civil action ? Be it remembered that the boy's sacailfice was fully as great in proportion as any which wealthier parties could have made, to whatever =scant they might hare carried theirs. But now what shall we think cif the landowner legislation—of the landlord-me le laws which enact such monstrous immorality and injustice as are obviously illustrated by this very case ? To steal turnips is an offence against property, and must be represse d by certain pe nalties. Granted, if you will. E .ut are there to be no checks, no modifications, up m those penalties, according to circumstances ? The, value of the pro perty, here, is found—(on no lenient mitigating re presentation, observe, of a reluctant accuser, but on the statement of a party, anxious, 11 , his own showing, to inflict, on the first offender " he. can catch," his re sentment for the depredations committed by others) — at fourpence. The bench, under. the instructions of the statute, award fourpence for the property. But then the penalty ? How much, in such a trumpery case, shall be the penalty to vlnedicate the offended law ? Sixpence more. The sum 'of tenpence the poor girl cannot pay—the hard-heartnil prosecutor will not relent. Of non-payment, imprisonment for a limited period—nicely ascertained by a I)enal "sliding scale" of terms of incarceration—is the, assigned and only alternative. Hard enough this on the delinquent. But is this all ? No. Property and penalty are satisfied, with tenpence : but costs—costs, that is to say, in the shape of fees to the magistrates' clerk, or the clerk of the peace, or some other sm all legal minnow of insatiable office appetite;—theses amount to rather more than four times the whole 'charge for penalty and property ! Away, then, mirth the trumpery pretence of vindicating law an& property by such atnercements. They are meant to feed the never ending, everywhere planted, all-ala; ;orbing feelers of the law staff, which in this country tare the beginning and the ending of all things. In the case of GREEN GROVE, a benevolent man sat as chairman, and doubt less his brother magistrates concurr ed in his feeling. The money was refunded—by souse one—to the noble boy. e g A i s w a t o o r r d s n o n w o , t t o h e o y v e i r m s a e g e n r e e farm (w e e p r s u t an th d e la c n as d e lo w rd e have been discussing out of the quest .on, and speak of a whole class, not of a solitary exa mple)—do they suppose that they will increase, in sta .rving and pau perised labourers, respect for propert F, by overstrain ing the vengeance of the law against; the most paltry transgressions upon it ? Do they fancy that the public cannot see through the flimsy disguise which interposes itself between the ostensi b;le object of petty larceny and summary jurisdiction Ac ts of Parliament such as we have alluded to, and the zl iiserable, sordid selfishness, which originates and p; asses them ? Do they expect to extinguish the sec ret torch of the prowling incendiary, by multiplyin g penalties upon their devoted heads whom the desperation of hunger has driven to a twopenny outrage on the products of other men's fields ? Do they eon ceive that the best course of securing the abstinent :e of wayfaring paupers in search of work from pillage, and even violence,—" is to lie perdue," as it: were, " to catch the first" and most helpless and most pitiable of fender? Do they persuade themselves that, to show no pity for others, is to ensure TOspect for theta selves ? .ew Intelligen ce h as been received from Lisbon to the 6th instant. The Minister for 1' 1 (AI ign Affairs re cently called on the Chamber of Deputies, to take into consideration the proposed abolition of the privi leges of the conservatory tribunals, possessed by foreigners. The Report of the Committee ap pointed to inquire into the use made of the ex traordinary powers granted to Government dur ing the late troubles (of which Committee the brother of the Minister CABRAL was a mem ber) was favourable to the Government. The documents referred to in the Minister's report of the use made of those powers were moved for, and their production opposed by the Government. The ac count of the expenditure of the loan of 2,000 contos for the suppression of the revolt were likewise moved for, and refused, but promised to be produced at some future period. The report of the Committee appointed to inquire into the legislative decrees of the Government, pro mulgated during the recess, speaks in very doubtful terms of the licitness of those measures, but ends by recommending the Chamber to grant for that time only a Bill of Indemnity, in order to avoid greater evils from discordant relations between the legislative body and the Government. A Bill introduced into the Chamber of Peers for the abolition of slavery in the Portuguese possessions in Asia, by the Count DE LAVRADIO and the Viscount SA DE BANDEIRA, was opposed by Ministers, and lost by a majority of 23 votes against 18. The right of appointing bishops to the Asiatic sees, in places at present or formerly under the dominion of Portugal, in virtue of what is termed " the Royal Padroado," had been recently referred to a Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, in whose report the right is asserted of appointing to the Bishopric of Bombay. The right is contested by the Court of Rome, and if we mistake not, about two years ago Dr. WHELAN, an Irish ecclesiastic, was elevated to the Episcopacy, placed in possession of the See of Bombay, and re cognised in his episcopal capacity by the East India Board. Madrid Journals to the 14th instant have come to hand. Intelligence up to the 17th has, however, reached Paris by telegraph. The following is the— TELEGRAPHIC DISPATCH. " MADRID, OCT. 1 7.—The two Chambers are consti tuted. M. Castro y Orocso has been elected President of the Congress. The four Vice-Presidents and the four Secretaries have been chosen from the different fractions of the Chamber. " The Vice-Presidents are MM. Pacheco, Govantes, Areneco, and Pepena. " To-morrow the Ministry will present the project of law for the reform of the constitution." Thus the PRESIDENT selected by SALAMANCA and hostile to MoN has been chosen. " On the 13th instant the Patriarch celebrated, in the apartments of the Queen-Mother, Maria Christina, her marriage with the Duke de Rianzares (" Munoz"). The Ministers who were present are called upon to decide various important questions connected with this marriage, namely, the form in which it shall be published; whether Maria Christina shall retain title of Queen-Mother what pension the young Queen shall allow her mother out of her patrimony ; and whether, in the event of such pension not being equal to her present jointure, the Cortes shall not be applied to for an allowance in the way of a national reward and a testimony of gratitude." As yet the Gaceta makes no mention of the Rayo affair, but the Heraldo says : __ _ _ " Negotiations hare commenced respecting this un fortunate event. According to a Cadiz letter of the 10th of October, witnesses of the occurrence have already given evidence before the Marine tribunal. It has yielded only known details, save the following :—When the Rayo's crew was received on board the Portuguese vessel, the boat of an English man of war approached that vessel, and the Lieutenant commanding it asked what had happened, when the captain of the Ray° briefly re plied, It is a Spanish war schooner that has been sunk by a Gibraltar battery."' At a meeting of the Senate held on the 14th inst., the Duke DE Golf in the chair, a resolution proposed by M. ANDOVILLA in the following terms was unani• caously adopted:— " That, as the number of Senators admitted exceeds 50, the Provisional Committee for the verification of powers be suspended." The sitting of the Chamber of Deputies on the 14th ,nst. was occupied with the admission of members. The Phare de Bayonne of the 10th inst. mentions the arrest of several Carlist refugees, who had clan destinely left their residences. Among them is LARUMB, whom the English and several French journals supposed to be at the head of five hundred Carlists in Navarre. The Constitutionnel says, "As to the present feeling of General NARVAEZ and M. MARTINEZ DE LA ROSA, we persist in believing that these two Ministers are not in accord, and that it is not the former who in clines to the proposal of counter-revolutioniary mea sures to the Chamber of Deputies ;" and it reiterates its former assertion that the Progressistas had re cently made overtures to NARVAEZ. The Three per Cents. were done on the Madrid Bourse on the 14th inst. at 26k, at 60 days. The Five per Cents. were not quoted. We have received the Paris papers of Sunday. The Monileur contains a royal ordonnance, pro moting several officers of the French navy, for the part they took in the recent events at Tangiers and Mogadore. The ordonnance declares that the pro motions are made on the report of the Prince of JOINVILLE. Captains HERNOUX and Count MOl TAGNIES DE LA ROQUE are appointed Rear-Admirals; Commanders BONET, DUQUESNES, GALIER, DORET, CLAVAUD, and CLEM', are appointed Captains in the navy; and there are numerous promotions in the lower grades, and among the officers of the Marine Artillery and Marines. On Saturday evening, the Duke D'AUMALE arrived at Saint Cloud, from Africa. He had been absent from France above a year. The Commission appointed to inquire into the con stitution of the Ecole Polytechnique has completed its labours, but has not yet presented its report; but the Constitutionnel says, that twenty of the students are to be expelled—that the uniform is to be changed, and some other marks of disfavour shown. The Journal des Debats has a long article on the subject of the visit of Louis PHILIPPE to England. The following are extracts . " There are people who ask with grave looks whether the King's visit has removed all the causes of secondary rivalry that exist between France and England ? No ; but the King's visit has proved that, above those petty causes which may again produce some transient misun derstanding between the two countries, there is a grand cause which will always tend to bring them together—the cause of peace and liberty. Such is what the good sense of the people has foreseen —such is what has been meant by those manifestations, the vivacity of which has surprised our statesmen. The King's visit will therefore not prevent contentions from arising from time to time between English and French interests in some corner of the world. Two powers, two navies, two commerces that meet one another everywhere cannot exist without ever having some differences between them. English pride and French vivacity will some times be at variance—the press, which is equally free in both countries, will not always observe, in judging of its neighbour, and in its language, due moderation and decency—France will not make any progress without the jealousy of some old Englishman being alarmed at it ; and, among us, the ambition and perfidy of England will continue the favourite topic of the Opposition's orators and prints ; and short-sighted statesmen in both countries, reckoning but petty interests, will strive to build their fortunes and fame upon the war, the kindling of which they will deem easy. The King's visit will not prevent all this. But unless the two Governments be, one day, mad enough to rush on to their own de struction, despite the lesson just given to them bypopular wisdom, it will prevent little interests from prevailing over great ones, and the cause of peace and liberty from being sacrificed to the narrow cause of partial vexations and rivalries ; in short, it will prevent inevitable discus sions and contentions, which good faith and good will can easily settle, from ending in a war which civilisation would eternally regret." La Presse, on the other hand, publishes an article which the known connexion of that journal with Count MOLE renders important. It would appear from this article as if the treaty of the right of search was to be made the stalking horse for Count MOLE, to mount to power, to the exclusion of M. GUSZOT. "It has been said," says La Presse," that the cry of Long live the Queen of ENGLAND,' repeated enthusiasti cally by the crews of the entire squadron, is the faith ful expression ofthe sentiments of the country. We reply that such assertion is false, and that no one is honest who attaches to a mere courteous hospitable mani- festation political importance or a national character which it does not possess ; and this fact will be proved in the discussion on the approaching address in the Chamber of Deputies ; for either the Minister will abstain from introducing an explicit phrase intended to recal ' the cordial understanding' which will be significant; or, should such phrase be introduced, it will be more completely modified than it was last year, unless the following wish expressed by the Chamber of Deputies last year be realised : " This good understanding will, no doubt, aid in the success of the negotiations, which, whilst they guarantee the suppression of an infamous traffic, will tend to replace our trade under the excl us i ve sa f eguar d o f our own flag.' " It would be a strange abuse to believe that ha- THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY ErENING, OCTOBER 22, 1844. rangues and toasts, which have never bound seriously either individuals or nations, amount to a compensation which will induce France to forget that the treaties of 1831 and 1833 have been obtained from her through inadvertence, and that there is at Algiers an agent and Consul-General whose presence is a protest against the legitimacy of our conquest and of our occupation. The Chamber of Deputies will require a further pledge than the cordial understanding. In no count r y an d in no place has peace more sincere partisans than we are, but in order that it may be durable it must not be imposed on us, and deemed to constitute a humble and humiliating debt of gratitude. Gratitude for England, which during ten years supplied all Europe with subsidies to make war against us, and stripped us of the greater part of our colonies ! And why ? Because she was the first to re cognise the Revolution of 1830. But is it not part of the commercial policy of England to recognise all revolu tions, and sometimes even to foment them?" The Revue de Paris states that— " Admiral Dupetit Thouars, after having received an official notice of the disavowal, addressed, not to the Mi nister of Marine, but to the Mini s t er o f F ore i gn A ff a i rs, a complete justification of the measures which he had adopted at Otaheite. He was then at Valparaiso, and proposed to return to France. Should he come on di rectly he would arrive at Paris before the meeting of the Chambers, but the Ministers, who have no wish to see him, have, it is said, addressed further di s p a t c h es t o him, which will cause him to change his route." The Moniteur Algerien contains tidings of ADD-EL• KADEE, which we subjoin : " Abd-el-Fader is still encamped at the same place (El-Aoudj, on the left bank of the Moulonia, twenty five leagues to the west of our frontier in Morocco), with all his people. His Deira consists of about three hundred tents of the Hachem, Djafra, Beni-Amer, &c. About eight hundred tents of the same tribes are dispersed among the Beni-Senassen, Messirda, &c. The camp consists of three hundred horse a n d three hundred and fifty ill-armed infantry. Before he occupied the position where he now is the Emir was at the Oued-el-Kesseb, near Aioun-Sidi-Mellout. About 24 days ago he came to El- Aoudj. His movement towards that point brings him nearer to the mountains ; he is stated to have made this movement when he heard of the first negotiations that preceded the conclusion of peace. In the Deira and in the camp every body has been attacked with fever, the mortality has been very great, and the Emir has been seriously ill. The Deira's flocks are reduced to nothing, and distress is beginning to be severely felt. Abd-el- Kader has communicated to all those who have followed his fortunes the letter written to him by Muley Abder rhaman. In that letter the Emperor told him that he had been a cause of trouble in his States, that he must disband his remaining troops, disperse his Deira among the Halafi, and come to ez with his household and the chiefs who had followed him. There he would be supplied with land and all that his cattle might want ; but he must live in retirement and content himself with his character of a Marabout ; in short, if he would not execute this order, he must imme diately quit the territory of the empire. The Emir re plied that his most ardent wish was to repair to his Sovereign Lord, whose orders he was most anxious to obey ; but that disease having attacked all the Mahome dans who had fled the Christians and sought a refuge with him in Morocco, it was impossible for him to aban don them in the deplorable situation they were in ; that, nevertheless, at the end of the Ramadan (11th of Octo ber) he would set out, when all the Emperor's orders would be executed. However, after reading the Empe ror's letter, several councils were held in the Deira, as to what had better be done. It was at first unani mously determined not to go to the west. The Emir and the chiefs, it is said, will not place themselves at the mercy of the Emperor, who, from fear of the Chris tians, may, some day or other, order them to be ar rested, and the people of the Deira will not be incorpo rated with the Halaf tribe. Though perfectly agreed as to what should not be done, they would not agree as to what should be done. Mustapha Ben Thamin proposed seeking refuge in the Desert, but the recollection of sufferings and privations formerly endured, and other reasons, caused the proposal to be rejected by a large majority ; yet, it is affirmed that it is the determination the Emir has come to. Some persons believe that he will not be able to realise his project, and that his people will desert him. He wishes to proceed thus : to assemble all the tents of the tribes of the east that have sought a refuge on the frontier of Morocco, to issue orders to proceed to the Desert, to have all those who may refuse to march with him plundered by those who accompany him, and then to set out. The Emir having, already often acted in this way, a good number of tents belonging to the emigrants dispersed among the tribes have returned to our territory, and gone back to their country." The Emperor of Monocco is also stated to have ordered the treaty of peace concluded with France to be solemnly published at Fez, where it has been re ceived with great demonstration of joy. The troops assembled near the frontier of Algeria are stated to have been dispersed, or to have retired to the interior of Morocco. THIS DAY'S NEWS CRIMINAL COURT -(THIS DAY . OLD COURT. (Before the RECORDER.) John Sboud, seaman, aged twenty-two, was placed at ' the bar, charged with stealing three planes, value 55., the property of Win. Barrington Brown. The prisoner was detained upon two other charges of larceny. Mr. Brown was called, and proved that the prisoner was employed by him. He had from time to time missed various articles, which he traced to a pawnbroker's, and which were pawned by the prisoner. He was found with a cloak in his possession, which he stated he got from a servant-girl to pawn. It was stated by Mr. Brown that he had no servant-girl at the time. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. The RECORDER asked the prisoner what countryman he was ? The prisoner replied that he was a native of St. Helena. The RECORDER, in passing sentence, said that had the prisoner been a native of this country he would probably send him out of the country, but as he was a stranger, and comparatively unprotected, he w ou ld on l y sentence him to twelve months imprisonment, with hard labour, in the House of Corrertion. There were several other cases disposed of, but they were all of a trivial character. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (THIS DAY.) (Before the ASSISTANT JUDGE, and a full Bench n Magistrates.) The October Quarter Sessions for the County, was held by adjournment, this day, at the Guildhall, Westminster. The calendar contains the names of forty-one prisoners, of whom three were misdemeanants, and the remaining thirty-eight charged with felony. Some of the crimes with which the prisoners arc charged were of a serious nature. Tho ASSISTANT JUDGE briefly addressed the Grand Jury, and congratulated them on the comparative light ness of the calendar, stating that there were no points to which it was necessary for him to advert. STRIPPING CHILDREN:—A forbidding-looking female, about forty years of age, was charged with stealing a quantity of children's apparel, the property of John Nash, under the following aggravated circumstances. It appeared by the evidence, that the prosecutor's two children were playing in the neighbourhood of Strutton-ground, where the prisoner was seen speaking to them, and eventually :led them away by the hands. They were soon aftervre.rds found in a yard, not far from the spot where she was first seen, with their shoes, and one of their bonnets and a shawl taken away. The eldest child, any intelligent girl of about seven years old, stated that the p r i soner led them away un d er the pretence of b u yi ng /I tem cakes, them in.o the spot w h ere they were found, took away their clothes. and when she got The jury after a short consultation brought in a ver dict of Guilty ; and the prisoner was sentenced to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour. A tall athletic man , a , as indicted, under the name of John Radford, for havhag stolen a coat, value 21, the property of William NiLiholls. The prosecutor deported that the prisoner walked boldly into his shop aboi at twelve o'clock in the day, and snatching up the coat rt tshed out of the door. He was pursued, and eventually captured after a smart chase, when he made a desperate resistance, but was overpowered. Lieutenant Tracy, the; ;crvernor of Westminster Bride well, stated to the Cou rt that the prisoner had been already twice convicted, gni subjected to a lengthened imprisonment. The ASSISTANT JUDGE rsaid the prisoner had had a narrow escape from transportation. He should give him one chance more, and only sentence him to six months' imprisonment, with hard hat .our. A number of other cases; of petty larceny were tried, in which there appeared not the slightest point of general interest, after which the Cot trt adjourned. GUILDHALL.. --(THIS DAY.) John Henderson and Cho; les Mortimer were placed at the bar, before Mr. Alder = an Kelly, charged with hav ing attempted to utter a gorged cheque upon the bank ing-house of Stone, blartir is. , and Stone, Lombard -street. The circumstances, as det ailed on the first examination, were very brief. The che, to to was offered at the Bank, and at once stopped. It bare the signature of Charles Stokes, and had been lost 'by that gentleman in Morley's Hotel, Trafalgar-square, yob ere the priso•ier Henderson had been engaged as Waite n. The cheque was ultimately traced to him, and he era 5 in consequence taken into custody at his lodgings, wl it re, on a further search, a number of articles, supposel to be stolen from the Hotel, were afterwards discovered.. The former evidence hek - viing been read, the prisoner Henderson, and his broth, er -in-law Mortimer, to w h om hel had passed the caeque in the first instance, were committed for trial. Mortfin ler was held to bail to ap pear at the Central Cfimin Court to take his trial, in case any bill should be prof ?r red against him. -i i BOW-STREET, —(THIS DAY.) Two ragged littl e b oys, ithout shoes or stockings , and whose rag s did not Covet • their backs, named Brian and Qu tealay,in were brought be fo re M r. Jardine, charged with sg a pair of cotton stockings from a shop-door in the Strand. The prisoners were Seen no go up to 'the shop-dcor and take down the stockings:, and they were i mmediately given into custody. The policeman who took. :the prisoners into custody said the boys had been run ning about the streets all the previous night. The little fellows, who did not appear more than and therefore theyhad tak . cn the stock ings, in order that twelve years of age, said I hat they were almost starved, they might be taken into custody and conveyed to prison. They had neither father nor mother, and no friend in the world. Mr. JARDINE said they had better be committed for trial, .and instructed the officer to inform the judge be fore whom they would be tried of their wretched and destitute condition. They would then, no doubt, upon conviction, be sent to some asylum where their wants would be attended to, and provision made for their future life. The poor boys were then fully committed for trial, and they seemed pleased at the prospect of having a shelter, although that shelter was a prison. MARYLEBONE.—(THIS DAY.) AN INCORRIGIBLE HORSE• STEALER.—Edward Drahe was charged with stealing a pony from a common near Kempsey, Worcestershire, the property of Andrew Meridge. The prisoner, who has been tried on more than one occasion at the Old Bailey for horse-stealing, was charged at this office about three weeks ago with stealing a colt, for which offence he was committed for trial, and he was yesterday tried and acquitted. On his leaving Newgate he was apprehended on the above charge. The prosecutor stated that the pony was stolen on the morning of the 6th of June last. Information of the robbery was sent to the police in London, and the pony was traced to a person named Taylor, a greengrocer, at Bayswater, who bought it from the prisoner for 51. The prisoner on being taken into custody by Alfred Hughes, 174 D, said (alluding to the case in which he had been acquitted)--" I dare say 1 can beat him as in this ease." Several of his friends came round, and some of them said, " I sold it to him," " I'll say I sold it." The prisoner said he bought the pony at Bicester on the 7th of June, of a person named Hox, who lives at Woodstock. Mr. RAwLiNsoN said you are a lucky man to buy so many stolen horses. He was then fully committed, and will be tried at the present sessions, on Thursday next. [The reporter, in reference to remarks which were appended to a case disposed of at this court yesterday, states that there is a great disparity between the deci sions of the magistrates of this and other police-courts. Prostitutes who have been seen by a policeman to speak to a man in the street, are invariably committed to the House of Correction for a month without the option of paying a fine—wretched creatures, who have merely solicited charity by holding a piece of paper before them stating that they are in abject want, are as invariably tent for fourteen days. Drunkenness, unaccompanied by either obscene language or riotous conduct, is priced at 55., whilst at Queen-square, and other police courts, the really poor are only fined is. Such severity and straining of the law is highly censurable.] CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY). George Lee was charged with stealing 51. from his mother, a poor milk-woman, living in King-street, Drury-lane. The prisoner, who did not seem more than fourteen years of age, has been the torment of his poor mother's life. Finding her from home a few days ago, the young rascal broke open a drawer in which the above sum was, the hard-earned savings of a whole life, and went off immediately and spent the whole sum among his wicked companions. —Committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) Timothy Connor, Patrick Conway, and Michael Con way, were placed at the bar on the following charge : William Hasler, the driver of a cab, stated that last evening as he was sitting on his box on the stand in the Haymarket, the defendants, who came reeling out of a cigar shop, seized his horse's head, and drove the animal sharply round three times. On his remonstrating with them, the defendant Michael Conway struck him a vio lent blow in the face, then tore off his badge and threw it down in the street ; they were both in a very intoxi cated state. Police-constable, No. 80 of the C division, stated that he conveyed the defendants to the station-house. On getting there they behaved in a very riotous and disor derly manner, and commenced an attack upon the con stable present. The defendants were fined 31. each, or six weeks' im prisonment. Not having the amount required about them they were locked up. UNION-HALL.-(THIS DAY.) Edward Faithful, a man of respectable appearance, was charged before Mr. Traill, with having violated the person of Eliza Nott, the daughter of a tradesman. From the complainant's statement it appeared that the prisoner lived next door to her, and that on the pre ceding day he called at the house and inquired after her father. She told him he was out, and, knowing the family, he walked into the parlour, and, after a little time, kissed her. That she reproved him, but he paid no regard to it, and proceeded to use violence towards her, and threw her down on the floor. She resisted, and called out, and, according to her evidence, he committed the capital offence. Tho complainant underwent a lengthened cross•examii nation by Mr. Humphries on behalf of the prisoner, in the course of which she admitted that a man in her father's employ called immediately after the ill-usage she experienced, but she did not claim his protection, nor did she complain of the conduct of the defendant. Mr. TRAILL remanded the prisoner until farther evi dence is produced on Friday. FLANDERS AND HAMBURG MAIL. (RECEIVED THIS DAY.) BRUSSELS, OCT. 20.—The ratifications of the treaty of commerce and navigation concluded on the Ist of Sep tember between Belgium and the German Zollverein, were exchanged yesterday at the residence of the Mi nister of Foreign Affaires.

BERLIN, OCT. 11.—Prince Albert, who has hitherto commanded the fifth division (in the third corps of the army), has, to the surprise of every body, been deprived of his command. It is probable that he will shortly ,be appointed to a higher station in the army. HANOVER, OCT. 11.—The general conjecture that W. Von Falcke would be the successor of M. Schele seems not to be realised. M. Von Falcke will certainly con— tinue to be the soul of the Cabinet, as he was, but lire learn that he will certainly not be Minister, and that l ire has no inclination to become so.— Hamburgh Pape; 'a.

PUGlLlSM.—Yesterday, the fight between Haggerty and Johnson came off twenty miles down the Brighton Railway. The men were matched for 201. a-side, and created a good deal of interest among the Westminster school. A ring having been formed, the men stripped and commenced the combat with much quickness. Hag gerty soon gave evidence of his superior " generalship," and the men fought with great determination ; and at the expiration of one hour it was quite apparent the battle was in the hands of Haggerty. They continued the contest, which occupied one hour and twenty mi nutes, when the friends of Johnson withdrew him from the contest, and Haggerty came off the winner. Hag gerty has figured several times in the ring, while John son had now made his first appearance.

SUSPECTED INFANTICIDE.—This morning, between *wren and eight o'clock, as the pot-boy of the Coach and i "banes public-house, in Hill-street, Berkeley-squ are , H , ; , Is passing along Bruton-street, Bond -street, he f oun d, i y og on the footway pavement, a small bundle, tightly w rapped round in some pieces of a cotton gown. On opening' it he was excessively terrified at disco ver i ng th at its contentz were the body of a new-born female child. It vv.! immediately taken charge of by the police, and ultini ately conveyed to St. George's workhouse, and Mr. Higg, s, the coroner, has issued his warrant for holding an ire luest to-morrow evening. The appearances of the child are strongly indicative of its having been born ali v e, and about the head there are strong marks of vio• lence, and also compression about the throat. ST, &TE or TRADE.—What has long been the staple trade of Paisley, the manufacture of shawls, is very flat at pi 'went, so far at least as the manufacturers are con cernl The stock of goods made for the season has been very select and limited, and till they are disposed of th• e , manufacturers, with one accord, seem resolved to add: n othing more to its amount. These goods still contiw ae the principal article of dress in the highest circle! ~ and will do so, as long as Cashmere exists, or India shaw' is continue to be made, to be worn, and to form the .most costly article of attire for the female form. Owing t, th s substitution of various other articles for shawls at. lot igst the middle and working classes, the demand for aisley goods continues, however, limited in the mea nti'me ; but, if the present policy of the manufac ture. rs be persevered in, the stock on hand will b e 6T re t lually diminished by natural demand, in place ( .a" being sacrificed, and an effort made to sue pplant it by newer patterns, as hitherto In bat zar.ineo or gauzes, as well as in tartans and other ( lescriptions of plain goods, the operatives continue to fine abundance of employment, though at very low wage!, Th e tartan trade, in various departments, seems . rapidli rising a staple commodity of manufacture in this quarter r. Paisley-made tartans are muc h sought after, and, as they progress, we have not the least doubt but that, 1 3 , ith in that fabric and in the finer descriptions of muslins, our first-rate tradesmen, by a little application of their L 'igenuity, will open up departments which will ff n a better remuneration than they now ob tain, • the low paid inferior work, which many of aord an dti el them are ..inployed at, will be handed over, as it ought, to the yoi anger members of the trade, and the inf erior desoriptic .ns of werkmen.—Glasgow Saturday Post.
