WOOD AND OTH I ,RS. —JUDGMENT.—THE LATE MR. JAMES WOOD'S WU:. .. When this case was called on, the LORD Cliastcat. .OR inquired of Mr. Swanstone, counsel for the Corpora ion of Gloucester, whether his clients acceded to the to :ms of the order of Vice-Chancellor Wigram? "Mn SWANSTONE said they did. Mr; WALKER—It was not an order of his Hon, fur, but a proposition suggested by the Court, Mr. SWANSTONE—The Corporation of Gloucester ITO ready to aecede to the proposals that have been Int .de, and they will submit to any order the Court may h. re after think proper to make., The LORD CHANCELLOR then said he had considt red this case with great care and attention, and the «m -clus;.on he had come to was, that the money hi ii ; ;a- Cm ought not to be paid to the executors per s ing , the appeal to the House of Lords against "U tee- Chancellor Wigram's decision. On looking at the judgment of the Court below he observed that. his Honour at the time stated, that in a question of tt importance, where property of upwards of 200,0001- was in litigation, it was not likely that either party wool i be satisfied with the decision of a puisne judge of the art, !tr.sd therefore he (the Lord Chancellor) considered it a proper case for an appeal, and that the proceedings s 'ere not frivolous. After some further remarks, his Lord .hip said; suppose he was to order the money in disi ute to be paid over to the executors, they would not feel themselves justified in distributing it. 111 .der .the present circumstances, therefore, he though; . it lhad better remain invested in the Funds, under the I ion - trol of the Court, until the appeal to the House of if mds was decided. At the same time he was of opinion that the executors were at full liberty to apply to have any portion of the fund paid over to them on their givinii sa tisfactory security. It was asked by counsel for the ex ecu tors that, in the event o loss by a decline in the funds , the ccrpctration shozad make it good. Now he conk not make any order on that point, as the Courts had all vays nnnsidstred Consols in the light of money : if the Price fell, the executors would lose (in case the ap deal should be in their favour) ; but if it was higher, I hey would have the advantage. In conclusion, his Lord dhip ordered the money claimed by the Corporation, unto er a codicil in the will of the testator, to remain invests ‘d in the Funds pending the appeal, with liberty to 09 de fendants (executors to the will) to apply to takes sny portion of it out, on giving sufficient security. A long discussion ensued respecting costs. Ills LORDSHIP directed the costs of the present mo tion to be paid by the Corporation. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNA. LS, FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. GLOBE.—It is curious to observe how mud the most intelligent persons will believe, or affect t , be lieve, when their credulity is urged by an apps A to their ease or their interest. The wealthier c 'asses know how they deal with the poorer. They c aunot entirely shut their eyes to a matter of daily, h any experience. Of late they have even written and talked a great deal about it. No one neee in dulges in the notion of any innate differeno e be tween the classes distinguished in the artificial order of society. All are admitted to be equally ern lowed with a natural sense of justice—a capacity to appre ciate kindness, and a tendency to resent i ojury. Yet wealth, holding the lion's share of political I iower, uses it mainly in a scrupulous care of itself—* eldom thinks of poverty till its miseries show some u pward tendency—and withal believes that nothing it iore is necessary to the permanence of such a systen than the occasional passing of a few Acts of Parliament, recognising the existence of the labourer only in order to make sweeping regulations as to how I mg he shall work, or how his wages shall be paid, or on what conditions be shall enter a workhouse. Lick burning and Chartism are dreadful thing s ; but we treat them too much as our ancestors did thunder and lightning :—we deeply deplore their effects, and do not deeply investigate their causes. We have already drawn attention to the spirit which seems to have animated the Legislature in the reforms of the last few years—to the remarkable facility with which right principles have been adopted and, forced into practice in one direction, and the extreme difficulty which has attended their introduction in another. But the doings of Parliament present to us the opinions and feelings prevalent upon this subject among the wealthier classes, upon so large a scale, and so modified, ;Its to ex hibit but half their errors and inconsistencies. Let them be examined as developed in the local legislation of large towns, or in the local influence of wealthy in dividuals in rural districts, and their want of what has been well termed " Christian principle" becomes still more strikingly apparent. In all municipal arrange ments, the safety, the comfort, the health of the rich are first cared for, and the poor are left to take care of themselves. Mansions replete with everyluxuryand con venience that taste or ingenuity can suggest, are every where found the near neighbours of hovels less fitted for human habitation than the huts or wigwams of the least civilised savages on earth. No house pays so good a profit to its owner as that tenanted by tivs poor man. None is constructed with so little regard to the health or comfort of its tenant. The " gentry " everywhere bend the municipal authority to the drAn ing, ventilation, and cleansing of their own dwellings, and leave those inhabited by " artisans and labourers" destitute of the benefit of these processes. Superior intelligence, the fruit of a better education, places the resources of modern science within the reach of the former. These are freely used—for themselves. They are equally applicable to the condition of, and far more needed by, those beneath them ; but lem seldom are they so applied ! These are no hasty or ill-considered assertions. They are based upon a careful and painful review of evidence which is only too ample. STANDARD. the Bishop of Exeter has written and published a letter to the churchwardens of St Sidwed's and St. James's parishes, in Exeter, in reply to an address from those parishes. Every one is prepared to expect eloquent and graceful writing from the Bishop of Exeter ; hut the reply before us posse--sea merits beyond eloquence and grace. It is kindly, affectionate, and even pa thetic ; a picture of the struggle of an able, honest, and warm-hearted man, between the wish to con ciliate on one side, and a severe sense of duty on the other. The Right Rev. Lord considers himself as (if we may use the phrase) amagistrate in the Church, not required perhaps to be over vigilant in detecting evasions or transgressions of the Church's laws, but under a peremptory obligation to see those laws exe cuted to the best of his judgment, and in their exact spirit, without reference to the motives of those who put their power in motion ; further, as a magis trate, strictly bound to make all the 1 gal provisions against any probable disturbance of the Church's peace, even though at the cost of offering violence to his own feelings, in seeming to take part against those on whose side substantial right and justice are manifestly arrayed ; lastly, as a magis trate who w ou ld b e t ray hi s trust if h e a ll owe d his authority to be treated lightly. This is plainly the Bi s h op o f Exeter ' s view of the nature and duties of th e episcopal office ; and we can imagine no better conce l Jion of the nature and duties of th e office, were a i 1 9 :is i llop merely " a civil magistr a t e ;" b ut we have er esti mate of the office of a bishop —we rega'rd lh it as not merely in name, but as, i n f ac t, paternal and • think that as a father has power to res t ra i n or, to relax rnE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 21, 1344. the domestic rule, as his judgment shall direct, so has a bishop considerable power to modify even the Church's laws in the government of his diocese, not indeed by a direct action, but by the exercise of a mild influence. These remarks will, we trust, acquit us of any want of respect either for the right rev. Lord personally or for his office, and we will now proceed to state strictly but fairly what appears to us to be the case made in the Bishop's reply. Changes have, within the last few years, been made in the forms of Divine worship. These changes have been universally introduced by perverse men, either frivolous coxcombs or treacherous emissaries of Romanism, and consequently they have given great offence, and excited no small jealousy, in the people. There is a passage in the reply to which we refer with high gratification, because it proves that in the course which he has thought himself b..und to adopt, the Right Rev. writer dis not a volur.teer— proves that befr,re he sought to provide for the peace tv... - eh by commanding a general uniformity with UP:, change proposed, he tried to secure that Peace by dissuading all from any change, but that he dirsuaded many in vain : " If 1 should order my clery, as your letter seems t suggest, to continue the services 01 the Church as they ":40w are, without any change, any one of them might sky to me—' We cannot, conscientiously, do what you Thus illegally order ; we are bound, by our ordination vow, to " minister the doctrine and sacraments, and the discipline of Christ, as the Lord hath com manded, and as this Church and realm hath re ceived the same ;" we have, moreover, solemnly de clared that " we will use the form in the Book of Com mon Prayer prescribed in public pra er and administra tion of the sacraments, and no other ;" and the statute which requires this declaration from us, requires also that we ''conform, in all points, to the things appointed and prescribed in that book." We will be faithful to these engagements, and will not serve as ministers in this Church Ha this our faithfulness is nut permitted.— How could I answer this ? " You may imagine that I am here proposing an ex- I retne case, which is utterly unlikely ever to present itself in real practice. But your imagination would be unfounded. Several such cases have actually occurred, and similar ones are likely to occur every month. Al ready they have caused to me much perplexity, and have produced practical effects seriously injurious to that great object which you value, and which it is, among my first duties to seek to place on the firmest footing—peace in the Church, which cannot be secured without uniformity in the worship of Almighty God." This, we confess, opens to us a wholly new view of the question—a view of which the whole episcopal bench ought to have the benefit, in company with the Bishop of Exeter. MARRIED.—To-day, at St. John's Church, Rich mond, by the Rev. Charles Proby, Canon of Windsor, John Berney Petre, Esq., only son of Colonel and the Hon. Mrs. Petre, of Wostwick Hall, in the county of Norfolk, to Caroline Susan, second daughter of the late Right Hon. James Alexander Stewart Mackenzit.. Immediately after the ceremony, a large party of nobi lity and gentry, relations and friends of both parties, assembled at the house of the bride's mother, the Hon. Mrs. Stewart Mackenzie, and partook of an elegant breakfast ; after which the happy pair set out for Study Lodge, the seat of Caroline Dowager Lady Suffield. RESIGNATION OF TILE VICAR OF BRADFORD.—. The Rev. Dr. Scoresby, much to the astonishment of the public, has resigned the vicarage of Bradford. Dr. Scoresby is a High Church Evangelical. Be has for years been on uncomfortable terms with several of his leading parishioners, in consequence of which one or two new churches, built by individuals, have never been opened. As a man of science, Dr. Scoresby occupies a very respectable rank. He had formed a scheme for the division of the extensive parish of Bradford, and notice had been given of an application to Parliament next session for a Bill to authorise it. The Ecclesiastical Commissioners are said not to approve of Dr. Scoresby's scheme, and hence it is supposed he has resigned the living.—Leeds Mercury. OXFORD.—It is currently reported, and generally believed, that the Rector of Exeter, who is one of the chaplains to Prince Albert, will vote in Convocation for Mr. Ward, and consequently against the charges brought against that gentleman fur the attacks on Protestantism contained in his Ideal Church. The Rector of Exeter against Dr. Hampden. ETON COLLEGE, DEC. 20.—1 n consequence of the marriages, during this week, of the Rev. Francis Ed ward Durnford and of the Rev. John Eyre Yonge; both assistant masters at Eton College, two fellowships have become vacant at King's College, Cambridge. These vacancies will be filled up by the fellowships being given to the Captain of the Eton School, Wright, and to Wool ley, the next senior scholar at Eton. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, DEC. 20.—Our raw sugar market must still be considered very dull, for al though the refiners have taken about 400 hhds. of West India, since our last, to carry them over the Christmas recess, yet the grocers are doing nothing whatever, and appear to hold fair stocks, which they find a difficulty in selling, and consequently are not disposed to increase. In Mauritius and Bengals no transactions are reported, and the demand for rum continued very dull.—Bristol Mercury. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, DEC. 19.—The commissioning of eleven men-of-war—Superb, 80 ; Actaeon, 2G ; Racehorse, 18 ; Persian, 16; Acorn, 16; and Ranger, 6, at Devonport ; the Eagle, 50; Comus, 18; and Fantome, 16, et Chatham ; the Amazon, 26, at Sheerness; and the Lily, 16, at Portsmouth—is evidence that the Admiralty do not in tend to allow the force of the navy to be crippled in future so dangerously as it has been hitherto ; and, whilst we give them every credit for thus endeavouring to sustain a suuud feature in the well-being of this country, we cannot help pointing out acts of the grossest injustice on the one hand, and the most evident par tiality on the other, towards individual ports. It is tolerably well known that Admiral Sir George Cockburn, first acting Lord of the Admirality, and Admiral Sir Charles Rowley, Commander-in-Chief at Portsmouth, are both rejected candidates for the representation of Portsmouth in Parliament ; hence, it is said, the bitter animosity which has ever been manifested towards this unfortunate borough since the accession to office of the two Admirals above-named ; one is merely the double of the other, so that between the two, Ports mouth shares but little in the distribution of prizes from the Admirality. A more striking illustration of the feeling which is believed to pre vail, could not be well imagined than the circum stance of commissioning a squadron of ships at one port, and only one small brig of 16 guns at another, the chief naval depot in the world, at a time too when there are plenty of seamen knocking about the glace, and plenty of ships of almost every class in the harbour ready for the pendant. Ever since Sir Charles llowley's appointment to the chief command of this port have the inhabitants suffered most bitterly for their faith in and the performance of their promises towards that officer. He will not buy an article for the personal consumption of himself and household in or near the spot where floats his flag; but sends his tender to Jersey, Guernsey, and the London markets for provisions for his table and esta blishment. This is a fact so glaring as scarcely to insure belief, but it nevertheless is a public fact, and one the truth of which every week, nay, almost every day, furnishes fresh illustrations of. It is said that Sir George declared that the people of Portsmouth would rue the day they returned him to his own seat instead of a seat in the House of Commons, and dearly has his anticipation been performed. The commission of the Lily brig seems conferred as a sop in the pan to the hungry people of Portsmouth, and as if in very shame for the degradations heaped upon them. The insult ap pears more remarkable when we consider that at the present moment there 'is not a craft at Spithead, nor one in the harbour with guns on board, except the Vic tory with her saluting complement, and the Syren, 16 (dismantling prior to paying off), and not a war-steamer in the port Such is the manner in which Portsmouth is treated by the Admiralty ! The Dwarf, steam tender to the Royal yacht, Com mander Chamberlain, left the harbour yesterday, and steamed out to Southsea Castle and back several times, to try her rate of speed. She went without her figure head. The Lily, 16, was brought down from her moorings among the ordinary, on Tuesday, alongside the dock yard, for commission, by Commander C. J. F. Newton 838). The Emerald, tender, returned to-day from the relief of the wind-bound merchantmen in the chops of the Channel. DEVONPORT, DEc. 19.—The Actaeon, 26, Racehorse, 18, Acorn, 16, Persian, 16, and Ranger, 6, have been brought alongside the jetty for docking, prior to com mission by the following otficers:—Capt. George Mansel (1840). to the Actaeon ; Commander G. I. Hay (1828), to the Racehorse ; Commander H. Coryton (1841), to the Persian ; Commander J. E. Bingham (1841), to the Acorn ; Commander J. Anderson (1841), to the Ranger. These vessels, together with the Superb, 80, require 1,400 men to man them. The Wellesley, 72, is ordered to be brought forward as an advance-ship. The Savage, 10, Commander Bowker, recently arrived from Gibraltar, is in Hamoaze dismantling, preparatory to being paid off. The Dredalus, 20, Captain M`Quhae, sailed on Sunday for New Zealand. . ..... The Tartarus steam- vessel, Captain Wolfe, was paid advance yesterday, and sailed for Cork, to resume her surveying operations. The Cruiser, 16, Commander Fanshawe; Osprey, 12, Commander Patten ; and Espiegle, 12, Commander Thompson, are fitting for service on the China station. The Firebrand steam-frigate, Captain Hope, and the Waterwitch, 8, Commander Birch, were ducked on Wed nesday to refit. The Albion, 90, Captain Lockyer, arrived from the Tagus on Monday. She is ordered into harbour to refit. It is expected she will be put out of commission, and her, crew transferred to another line-of-battle ship ; the late trial sailing with the St. Vincent, Caledonia, and Queen, having proved her to be almost useless in a heavy sea, her rolling propensities preventing her lower deck guns being of any &cry:ice. The Daring, 12, Commander Matson, was docked on Friday, when the cause of her leaking was discovered to arise from a plank. on the starboard side, near the keel forward, having split. WooLwicH, DEC. 20.—The Rattler steam-vessel was commissioned last week by Commander Henry Smith (1), and Lhe ii, havc been ,it!e,, made for service in that vessel :—Lieutenant E. B. Rice (1844), Lieutenant William Robertson (1840), and sub• sequently Lieutenant H. D. Blanckley (1844), vice Rice, whose appointment has been cancelled; W. H. T. Green •. (1844), to be master ; R. J. B. Chambers (1844), to be surgeon ; and J. D. Cronin, to be acting assistant sur geon ; J. R. Tate, to be purser and paymaster ; and, subsequently, Frederick Mundy, to be purser and pay master, vice Tate, whose appointment has been can celled ; Richard Brown, boatswain ; Robert Hall, car penter ; Thomas Johnson, gunner (acting); and F. W. Raey, master's assistant. Tile Scourge, first-class steam-sloop, of 1,124 tons, built at Portsmo:ith, was brought round to Woolwich on Saturday last, and taken into the basin on Wednes day, to be fitted with engines of 420-horse power by Messrs. Maudslay and Field. The Comet steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Prettyman, left Woolwich yesterday, having come round with the Scourge, and towed a tank-vessel to Chatham Dockyard, and at the same time conveyed a party of boiler-makers to rivet the wheels of the Janus steam vessel. The Black Eagle steam-vessel, Master-Commander S. B. Cook, returned to Woolwich yesterday from Ostend, havinelanded safely their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, and the mem bers of their suite. Lieutenants Davis and Spratt, 1 sergeant, 2 corporals, 1 drummer, and 50 privates of the Woolwich division of the Royal Marines, proceed to Chatham to-morrow, to join the detachment from that division selected for t‘er vice in the Superb, 80-gun ship, commissioned at Ply mouth by Captain Corry, C.B. . .. . . One corporal and 18 Privates of the Woolwich division are to embark at Woolwich Dockyard to-morrow, for service in the Rattler steam-vessel. One sergeant, 1 corporal, and 10 privates, having a knowledge of mechanical trades, are to embark in a transport-vessel at Deptford to-morrow, for Ascension, where they are to be stationed. CHATHAM, DEC. 20.—The Fantome, 16 guns, has had her masts put in place, and was commissioned on Wed nesday, the 18th instant, by Commander Sir W. E. Nicholson. The Comus, 20 guns, was commissioned on Wednes day, the 18th instant, by Commander T. S. Thompson. The Comus and Fantome will be taken into dock, to be cleansed from the vegetable matter adhering to their bottoms owing to their lying so long in the river. The Eagle, 50 guns, Captain G. B. Martin, is fitting for sea; she is expected to be put out of dock next week. The Queen, 110 guns, at Sheerness, after b. ing paid off, is to be taken into dock, to undergo some alterations. The Janus steam vessel is in dock ; the engineers are on board, engaged fitting her engines. Lieutenant Henry Eden, whose commission bears date the 15th of February, 1827, is appointed to the Eagle ; and Lieutenant T. E. L. Moore, whose commission bears date the 4th of October, 1843, is appointed to the Comus. Mr. W. Baker, who was for many years deli , in the Master-Attendant's office, in Chatham Dockyard, died yesterday, at the advanced age of seventy-eight. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of Dec. 20.) SUGAR.—Today middling to fine yellow descriptious of West India Sugar were in excellent request, and fetched rather higher rates, making the advance for the week Is per cwt, and of such there is not sufficient at market to satisfy the wants of the grocers ; inferior sorts, of which nearly the whole on show consists, were purchased steadily, and the offers made to lower rates were rejected by the merchants. The total pur chases amounted to 660 hhds, including 100 hhds 6 tierces of Barbadoes at auction which sold at very full rates ; indeed fine was rather higher, and fetched 68s, good 63s to 63s 6d, good midding 60s 6d to 625, middling 58s to 60s, low 575, very low soft 52s to 53s 6d per cwt. The total quantity sold for the week is 1,960 hhds and tierces. The market closes firmly with Sugar admissible for home consumption. REFINED.—There has been an increased desire mani fested on the part of the home trade to purchase Refined Sugar this week, a good demand has prevailed for all descriptions, and the rates paid are rather above those of this day week, the supply has again been small, and stocks in the hands of town and country grocers are light, added to which, Refined is much cheaper than good and fine descriptions of Raw Sugar. To-day the Grocers purchased Refined Goods with in creased freedom, paying stiffer rates—brown lumps fetched 725, and standard lumps 73s to 73s 6d. Of Crushed Sugar refined in bond there is very little offer ing, and the Refiners are demanding 30s 3d to 30s 6d. MA URITIU S. —This afternoon 1,145 bags were brought forward, and sold at and after the public sale at very full rates—good yellow fetched 59s to 61s 6d, good mid dling 58s, middling 55s to 575, and low 53s 6d per cwt. The quantity disposed of privately for the week is 4,000 bags. . _ EAST INDIA.—This afternoon there was no public sale of Bengal Sugar, but by private contract several parcels were disposed of at firm rates. The quantity sold during the week by private contract amounts to 14,000 bags, at prices varrying from 50s to 70s per cwt. FOREMIC—In consequence of the principal continental ports being closed, there are very few orders for any description of Foreign Sugar for exportation, and our refiners working under bond are mostly supplied for the present. There has been no public sale of yellow Ha vannah, and by private contract little business has been transacted, still the offers made at lower rates are rejected, and 21s to 21s 6d per cwt is the value of average parcels. White is not to be had upon easier terms. With Brazil of all kinds the market is sparingly supplied ; the de ,• mand privately has been only for small parcels at 18s to 19s for good and fine brown, 17s to 17s 6d for infe rior, and at 21s to 244 for common to fine white ; none has been offered at public sale. In other kinds of Foreign Sugar little has been done. . . _ Coislus.::-There has been little inclination mauifestrd on the part of the home trade to purchase West India Coffee this week, but importers having supplied the mar ket sparingly, any material decline in prices has been prevented. By private contract small par cels of Berbice, and of the lower descriptions of Jamaica, found purchasers, and the rates ac- cepted were rather under those previously quoted. This afternoon Ceylon Coffee met with more attention, and 365 bags at public sale sold at an advance on former rates of is per cwt, common pale ragged fetching 50s to 51s, good ord pale 525, good ord colory 53s to 535 6d, fine ord dark colory 53s 6d to 545, sea damaged 48* to 50s 6d, and triage 15s. By private contract the trade purchased more freely, paying 51s 6d to 52s per cwt for good ord. . . TEA.—There has been more activity in the market than there was last week ; merchants have shown firm. ness, and none has been brought to public sale. Congou has been in excellent request ; the better kinds fully sustain the former currency, common has been fetching 101c1 to lid, rather coarse to rather strong 1 lfd to Is ld. blackish leaf to blackish leaf rather strong Is 2d to Is 4d, god strong blackish leaf Is 4id to is 6d. fine is 7d to Is 9d, Pekoe flavour is 10d to 2s 6d. Ti a supply has fallen off of Tea worth from is 2d to Is 7d per lb. Twankay common at is 3d to Is 3id— the better sorts are wanted, brightish leaf at is 4d to is 9d, superior kind at 25 to 2s 4d. Pouchong at 6d to 10d. The supply is scanty of Scented Orange Pekoe, and there are not sellers of fine under 3s 4d. Hyson common at 2s 6d to 2s 7d, fair to good 25 8d to 25 I Id, superior 3s to 4s 6d. Young Hyson is still much wanted, and prices rule as high as ever, 3s to 3s 6d paid for Hyson kind, and 2s 2d to 2s 6d for Canton and Twankay sort. Gunpowder at 2s 4d to 2s 9d for Canton, and at 3a 2d to 4s 8d for Hyson kind. Imperial at 2s 4d to 25 9d far Canton and Twankay kind, and at 2s 10d to 3s 6d for Hyson sort. Caper, at is to is 4d per lb. For Hyson Skin there has been some Inquiry.

COCOA.—Foreign is much wanted, and in consequence of the scanty supply, buyers have been compelled to pay a further advance in prices ; at public sale 81 bags of Bahia wore sold, good bold red at 355, sea damaged 32s per cwt.

Mr. BueoE, Q.C., resumed his reply, at the conclusion of which their Lordships rose. In this case no judgment will be delivered, as the Com mittee report to the Crown. TICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Dec. 20. (Before Sir J. K. Bftucz.) PALLIN F. GATTIERCOLE. His HONOUR said, under all the circumstances of the case, he thought he could not dissolve the injunction. His present decision only referrad to the interlocutory stage of the proceedings, and the injunction should stand without prejudice to any future distinction or materials which might be made to appear in the case. The costs to be reserved ; and in case the plaintiff filed a travers ing note, or required an answer from the defendant, then the defendant should be allowed six weeks to put in that answer. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COUR T. (More Chief Justice TINDAL.) Michael Noon, 19, and John Sutters, 21, were in dicted for stealing a case of dentist's instruments, the property of William Murray. Mr. Cobbett prosecuted, and Mr. Mellor defended the prisoners. it appeared, from the evidence, that the prosecutor is a chemist and druggist, living in Hand-court, Bed ford-row, and on the evening the robbery took place Noon went into his shop, and asked for some lozenges. About eight o'clock the same evening the prosecutor heard a noise, and on descending the staircase he put his foot in a hat which belonged to some stranger, and on going into the shop he found it had been entered by means of a picklock key, and that a case of instruments had been stolen. The prisoners were taken into custody shortly afterwards, and the in struments were found in the possession of Sutters, and upon searching Noon a quantity of picklock and skeleton keys were discovered. Mr. Mellor set up an alibi on behalf of Sutters, and called witnesses to support that defence. The jury found Noon Guilty, and he was sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment. The other prisoner was acquitted. Benjamin Ewen, 52, butler, was indicted for felo niously stealing a silver teapot, value 61., the property of his Grace the Duke of Richmond. There was another indictment against the prisoner for stealing twelve silver forks, value 71., the property of Charles Cox. Mr. CLARKSON, who appeared for the prisoner, said that, with the permission of the Court, he would re tract his plea of Not Guilty, and plead Guilty to the indictment. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to state that the prisoner had occupied the situation of butler in some of the first families of the land, and ha mentioned, among others, the names of Lord Ernest Bruce and Lord Cranstoun ; but he said that latterly the prisoner had been reduced to a state of complete destitution, and, under the pressure of dis tress, he was induced to committ the offence imputed to him. Inspector Morgan, of the T division, was then questioned, and stated that, upon going to the pri soner's lodging, he found his wife and four children in a most destitute condition. They had pawned almost every article of their property, even to the wearing apparel of the children, for food. The CHIEF JUSTICE, in passing sentence, said he regretted to perceive a person who formerly appeared to have been so respectably situated, so far forget him self as to commit an offence of this description, but it was impossible to overlook the fact that there were two indictments against him, and that both offences appeared to have been committed within a short period of each other. In consideration, however, of his previous good character, and the testimonials re specting him that had been placed in the hands of the Court, the sentence upon him was, that he be impri soned and kept to hard labour for twelve months. • Mary Davidson, 20, was convicted upon two in dictments of stealing articles of wearing apparel from different dwelling-houses, the outer doors of which she found open, and she was sentenced to be transported for seven years. The business of the session concluded about six o'clock, and the Court then adjourned until Monday, January 6. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. Kyle, the servant of Mr. Chadwick, the surveyor, and Sargood, the driver of the errand cart which caused the death of a poor man, named Dean, in Threadneedle-street, a few days ago, by turning over upon him when he was drawing a truck, underwent another examination before the Lord Mayor. It will be recollected that Byte was committed to prison by the Lord Mayor, upon his own statement that he had deposited paving -stones, which were intended for the repair of the pathway, in the car riage -way, and that bail was taken for the appearance of Sargood, who, as he drove along, did not see the stones before the wheel of the cart came in contact with them. Mr. Chadwick attended, and stated that he deeply lamented the accident, but he could not see how it could have been avoided. The LORD MAYOR.—It is a very serious case. A. poor man, who has left a wife and children, has lost his life evidently in consequence of the manner in which these stones were laid in the carriage -way. The foreman of the jury has been with me this morning, and told me that the stones stood nearly a yard upon the carriage-way, and that the jury were for a considerable time in doubt whether they should not return a verdict of manslaughter against Mr. Chadwick's man. What is to become of the family of the deceased ? Mr. Chadwick said there was no other place in which to deposit stones intended for mending the pavement, and that the stones were piled up as carefully as possible. The LORD MAYOR—Then, certainly, there ought to be notice given to drivers that repairs are going forward by means of a lantern. It is quite evident that, in this case, the driver did not see the stones. But the matter shall be represented to the Commis sioners of Sewers. his Lordship having then been informed that the verdict was "Accidental death," dis charged the prisoner, but again called the attention of Mr. Chadwick to the deplorable condition of the wife and children of the deceased. It is believed that Mr. Chadwick, who is a gentle man of very hig►h character in the City of London, will pay particular attention to his Lordship's sug gestion. The Lord Mayor received 101. from the Gold smiths' Company, and 101. from the Grocers' Com pany, for the poor-box. LLOYD'S SHIPPING. EAST INDIA SHIPPING.
