plain the master. On the other hand, if the servant had a good ground of complaint against the master, the magistrate had no power to adjudicate. But this Bill gave to the magistrate the power of giving damages against the master, and allowed the arrest of the servant only upon warrant, issued in cases where the servant was about to abscond, or had ab sconded. The power of imprisonment was limited, and confined within the limits of the Bill introduced by the Hon. Member for Montrose (Mr. Home), called the 'Arbitration Act. The only novelty in the Bill was the question whether the House of Commons would extend the operation of the Act of George the Second to what. was called piece-work. He thought that was a very fair subject of discussion to the House. He had fairly stated to the House the present state of the law and the alterations contemplated, and he should oppose the motion of the Hon. Gentleman, the Member for Fins bury, and should vote for the measure going into Com mittee. Mr. GRANGER opposed the Bill, for it would place servants in a far worse position than they were at present. The Bill had excited from one end of the country to the other a feeling of opposition, for it was looked upon as a most arbitrary measure. The House, in the present state of the country, ought to be very cautious not to pass any Bill which might be considered as militating against the interests of the working classes. Mr. MILES had some difficulty in saying whether this Bill was his, or whether it belonged to the Govern ment.— (Laughter.) He thought if Honourable Gentlemen had looked carefully into this Bill, they wOuld have found that there was not a very material difference between the present Bill and the former one. The Bill he considered to be necessary, for the present law was entirely against the servant. He admitted that formerly no damages could be given on either side, but now damages could be given on either side, and it would be a question when they got into Commit tee, whether, in case of a refusal to pay damages, there should not be a power of imprisonment against the master. If he were to have the Bill at all, he should hope to have advice and assistance on every clause of it in a Commit tee of that House. But as to a Committee up stairs, they all knew what that would probably end in. —(Cries of " Divide, divide.") He was aware it was a most un fortunate duty to bring so important a measure before the House, but it had been postponed from time to time, and it was desirable to come to some decision upon it with as little delay as possible. Mr. BERNAL was quite satisfied of the kindly mo tives towards the working classes which influenced the Honourable Gentleman who had affiliated the present Bill ; but, in his opinion, this was a Bill of such vast importance in its provisions and in its conse quences that it ()Tight to have been introduced by the Government, and on their own responsibility alone.— (Cheers.) He did"not see his way on the present Bill, as it now stood before the House, and he repeated that it was a question that ought alone to be brought forward by the Government, with the aid and office of their law-officers.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. ESTCOURT considered that the fourth clause ought to be fatal to the Bill. It was no argument in favour of this Bill that wore Bills had been passed in more barbarous times. Sir GEORGE STRICKLAND opposed the Bill. It would affect the relations between employers and the employed in every branch of industry. It would place in the hands of the employer an immense engine of oppression. —(Hear.) There was no analogy between the conditions of the two parties. The master could dis charge the servant without au hours' notice, and there was no reason why his power should be increased. He felt. therefore, bound to vote against the motion. Mr. GALLY KNIGHT was convinced from what had been said by both sides of the .House— Whig and Tory—that there must be some thing essentially bad in the Bill. He had been greatly surprised at hearing himself described as a monster and a tyrant, because his na:ne was on the back of the Bill.—(Laughter.) He believed that the oppo sition to the Bill in the House was owing in a great measure to its being coincident with the strike of the colliers in the North.—(Cries of " Oh, oh," and laughter.) He believed that the Bill would only effect such alterations in the law as would benefit the working classes. If the Bill were thrown out, the existing laws'woutd press as hardly as ever upon the colliers. The lion. Member referred to the evidence taken before the Committee of the House on the subject of the colliers. to show that the law as it stood at present was oppres sive to the workmen, and condoled by saying that he would support the Bill. Mr. P. HOWARD said it might be very wise and prudent to consolidate the various laws upon one sub ject, but the House must recollect that they might have even gold too dear.—(Hear, bear, and laughter.) On a subject like this, which required so much varied informa. • tion, and such a dispassionate judgment, he thought the Government of the couatry was the only quarter from which they could expect a sound and useful Bill. He must, therefore, give his support to the motion of his lion. Friend the Member for Finsbury. Mr. COLLET, amidst continued cries of " Divide, divide" and great confusion, announced his intention of voting for the committal of the Bill that day six months. Mr. R. PALMER, amidst great uproar, addressed a few worts to the House, which were wholly inaudible in the gallery. The House then divided, when there appeared— For the Bill For the Amendment Majority against the 8i11........ —43 The Bill is consequently lost. . 97 DETACHED PARTS OF COUNTIES BILL. On the motion for going into Committee on this Bill, Mr. COLVILE moved that it be committed that day six months. _ _ Mr. LII)I)ELL supported the Bill. Mr. M. SUTTON could not give support to the Bill in its present shape, as it interfered with the franchise. lie did not, however, oppose the principle of the Bill; and if the Hon. Gentleman opposite (Mr. Scott) would consent to alter it in Committee, he (Mr. M. Sutton) would give it his support. - After a few words from Mr. SCOTT and Lord H. VANE, Mr. COLVILE withdrew his amendment, and the Bi; a ent into Committee. On clause one being proposed, Mr. M. SUTTON moved the omission of certain words, upon which the Committee divided, when there appeared— For the Amendment l9 Against it . . l5 Majority for the Amendment —4 An How. MEMBER then moved that the House do re sume and be counted, and there being but 38 Members present, the House adjourned at a Quarter past Seven. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, May 1. 'The Lord Chancellor sat in his Court at Westminster to day. TdE ORP.AT WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY V. THE BIRMING, HAM ,LND GLOUCESTER RAILWAY.-JUDGMENT. The LORD CitANCELLon gave judgment to-day in the motion in this case, affirming the decision of the Vice-Chan cellor of England, granting an injunction restraining the Bir mingham and Gloucester Railway Company from proceeding with their works. TILE DEAN AND CHAPTER OP ELY P. BLISS.—JUDGMENT. The LORD CHANCELLOR also gave judgment in this case, which came before the Court upon appeal from the decision of the Master of the Rolls. His Lordship observed that the question before the Court turned almost entirely upon the construction of the late Act of Limitations, the 3d and 4th William IV., chapter 27 ; and the question arising out of that Act of Parliament was a question of great public im portance, namely, whether that Act related, as far as tithes were concerned, to estates between' adverse claimants of the estates and the tithes, or whether it extended to cases between the tithe-ownerand the occupierof theland. His Lordship, after going at some length into the arguments that had been adduced before him, and the facts of the case, observed that he could not help thinking that if he was to pronounce a decision on the construction of the Act of Par liament adverse to the opinion pronounced by the Master of the Rolls, that the consequence inevitably would be, from the nature of subject, its. importance, and extensive opera tion, that the matter would go further, and a great expense and loss of time would take place. His Lordship thought, therefore, considering this as a mere question of law, of con struction of a statute, that would he most extensive in its operation, and that it might affect the decision of the Tithe Commissioners, who had put a construction on the Act supporting the narrower ground of interpretation, and having been informed on the highest authority that an appeal was depending in the Court of Queen's Bench, he should best consult the interest of all parties if he directed a case for the opinion of the Court of Exchequer as to the construction of the Act of the 3d and 4th of Wm. IV., chap. 27. That case ;night be argued in the course of the next term, so as to enable. his Lordship to dispose of the case altogether before the long vacation. The Court then proceeded with the case of Canty v. Holds ditch. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT May 1. The Vice-Chancellor of England was occupied the whole day with the further arguments in the part heard motion of Booth v. Glover. COURT OF ‘ QUEEN'S BENCH, May 1. - The Court too (Sittings in Banco.) k the Crown paper this morning. No case - of the least public interest came on. BAIL COURT, May 1. (Before Mr. Justicellllnuez.) THE QUEEN v. RICHARD ANDREWS. Mr. MILLER applied to the Court on behalf of Richard An drews, a prisoner in War w i c k gaol, on a charge of murder, that he might be admitted to bail before the magistrates of Birmingham, in the county of Warwick. He made this ap• plication on the ground, that there was not a scintilla of evi dence in the case to support the charge. The deceased was the infant child of the prisoner. She was about three or four Years of age. The prisoner's wife was d ea d, and he lived with this child in./Istate of abject poverty, in a small house in a court of Birmingham. The prisoner had been remar k able for the very grea t attachment he had for his child, an d t h e kindness he invariably showed to it. About half-past seven in the morning of a day in January, the prisoner hav ing gone out some little time, the people in the court were alarmed by screams of distress which proceeded from the house, and going to the window they per ceived a tire in the room, and ac ild T ( n t e o y u.s w e e t n h t ei i r n o t w o t n b e e x h p o r n es se • gun) " fihting with the flame s ." _ shavings, with au old rug and found the chili' on a bed of _ The child, which was over it—the shavings being on fi re. one of the grounds of very much burnt, was at once rescued re and conveyed to the hospital. Near the place (and this wa s observed suspicion) where the child's hand had "fight ing with the flames" was a small cinder be en ; which, however, in his (Ur. Miller's) opinion would, upon th e trial, decidedly manifest the innocence of the prisoner. W h en the child was being taken to the hospital by the wife of a man who had been first to rescue it—and who kept a house of ill-fame in the court, this woman said—" I believe it was her father who set her on fire." The child, before it had been taken to the hospital, was asked how she got on fire, and she replied` she had felt so very cold that she had gone down stairs to warm herself—that she had played with the fire, and then had got into the rug. In two or three hours after, about eleven or half-past eleven, - Then in the hozpital, somebody spoke to her on the matter. and she said it was her father put her there. At this_time the mind of the child .was giving way. and the re was ' no doubt (and the affidaYits gated it) that, in fier then wancteriDg state, she f9ehly re collected what had fallen from the woman when carrying her to the hospital. Before twelve o'clock the evidence of the me dical gentlemen testified that she was in a state of complete delirium. He should state, that as soon as ever the father heard of the accident he hurried to the hospital in the great est agony, and that the moment the child saw him she strove to get to him, and hugged him in the fondest way, which she certainly would not have done, had he been the cause of the dreadful torture she was enduring. Unfortu nately the inquest upon the child was taken before a Coroner who was of the medical, and not of the legal profeslion, and who admitted these expressions of the child in evidifnce, which the Court would be aware a lawyer would not have done. The consequence of the admission of this illegal evidence was, that a verdict of " 'Wilful murder" was returned, and the man was committed under the Coroner's warrant to Warwick Gaol, to take his trial. At the last assizes an application was made by the prosecution to put off the trial, on the ground that the two persons he had alluded to who first discovered the fire, were not present, and their evidence was essential. They, in fact, were persons of bad character—the police had been after them for some crime or other, and they had absconded. The prisoner had applied to the Court that the depositions of these witnesses should be read, in order that the Court might be satisfied there was no sufficient evidence against him, and so authorise him to go at large on bail until the absconding witnesses were brought forward • but Mr. Baron Gurney hesitated about this, on the ground he could not recog nize consents in criminal cases. Before the witnesses went up to the grand jury the solicitor to the prosecution had very properly warned them that they must not repeat to that tribunal the illegal evidence which the Coroner had so im properly admitted before his jury. Mr. Justice WIGIITMAN—fben the prisoner is arraigned on a true bill as well as on the Coroner's warrant. Mr. MILLER—Yes, my Lord; but I have affidavits to prove that, though warned not to do so, the witnesses did give the same illegal evidence before the grand jury that they had previously given before the Coroner's Court. Mr. Justice WicirrmAx—Holv can you properly know what passed before the grand jury ? Mr. MILLER—The affidavits of the witnesses are now s in my hand. Mr. Justice Wwirrmarr—Had the prisoner been kept in custody simply on the Coroner's warrant, my course would have been pretty clear, but when he is detained by reason of a true bill found by the grand jury, the case takes a very different aspect. Can you give me a case in point ? Mr. MILLER would endeavour to do so.. Mr. Justice WomiTmAx—l will take time to consider the matter, and to mention it to Mr. Baron Gurney. But you must be prepared with a case m point when the subject is again brought before the Court. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, May 1. (Sittings in Banco.) The Court tookthe special paper to 7 day. THE QUEEN v. EXANUEL SCOTT AND OTHERS. Mr. Ennis applied for a rule to show cause why a fine of 5,0001., and some smaller fines, which the Court of Queen's Bench had imposed upon the defendants, who are railway engineers, belonging to the Leeds and Manchester Railway, for the purpose of compelling them to widen and improve a parish road over which the railway passed, should not be en forced, and why further proceedings in the matter should be respited. The road was at first only 18 feet wide, and the parish authorities required that it should be made 30 feet wide. Colonel Pasley had pointed out how the improvement could be effected, and the defendants forthwith set about the matter and completed the requisite improvement, and as the fines had been only nominally imposed, in order to compel the de fendants to widen the road forthwith, it was now sought to have the parties relieved from any further process. Baron ALDERSON said that it was necessary to show that the public were satisfied with the alterations made in the road. It might so happen—though he did not mean to say it was so in this case—that both plaintiffs and defendants might be satisfied with what had been done, while the public convenience might not have been consulted in the matter. It was therefore necessary for the defendants either to get an affidavit from two resident magistrates, or from Colonel Pasley, to the effect that the public convenience had been at tended to in the making of the improvements. Mr. ERLE—Your Lordship could grant a rule nisi, to be made absolute on our procuring such an affidavit as your Lordship suggests. Baron ALDERSON—Yes, you can have a rule nisi, under taking to get such an affidavit. Rule nisi granted accordingly. The other cases that came before the Court up to the time of our going to press, were merely arguments on demurrer, involving only questions of law. SHERIFFS' COURT, April3o. Before Mr. Under-Sheriff KENNEDY and a Common Jury. SEDUCTION-BARNES V. MILLS. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, William Barnes, an engineer, in the employ of Sir John Rennie, against Frederick Mills, his nephew, a cabinet-maker, re siding in Drury-lane, to recover compensation for the seduc tion and loss of the services of his daughter. The damages were laid in the declaration at 1001. Mr. NASII, in addressing the jury, said the present case was one of the most painful that had ever been brought in a court of justice, and a most heartless one on the part of the defendant. The plaintiff was a man in a humble station of society, with a family of six children, four of them girls, the unfortunate object of the present inquiry being the eldest, depending upon his exertions for support. The defendant was the son of plaintiff's own sister, a young man, who, instead of ruining his cousin, ought to have been her pro tector. He (the Learned Counsel) would not dilate upon the conduct of the defendant, but leave the jury to judge of it from the narrative he would lay before them, and the evi dence in support of it. The Learned Counsel then detailed the circumstances, as afterwards brought forward in evidence. Miss Mary Ann Barnes, an artless, simple, but pretty young girl, was then called, and depesed as follows :—My father's name is William Barnes, and he resides at No. 11, Longstaff buildings, Great Guildford-street, Southwark. He is an en gineer at Sir John Rennie's. The defendant, Frederick Mills, is his nephew and my first cousin. I have known him about three years, and during that time he has paid his ad dresses to me. From the first time I walked with him he promised to marry me. That was two years ago. I remem ber August of last year. On the 15th of that month the de fendant came to me and said he intended to marry me on the morrow. He further said that he thought we had been walk ing long enough, and it was time that we made matters up. He should furnish a room, as he had money sufficient to buy the goods, and would get me to mind them for a fortnight, when he would then be married. I told my parents, and they consented to my going to mind the apartments, which were in Thomas-street, Stamford-street. They were furnished, and the defendant came to see me daily, and left at eleven o'clock at night. There was a mutal agreement between us that he should take no liberties with me.—(A laugh.) For some days he made no attempt to break the agreement, but on the Saturday night he wished me to allow him to sleep with me, but I refused. He then said, "If you do not, I will sleep with the first girl I meet, and, in that case, think no more of me as your husband." On his promising to marry me the following day I consented. On the Sunday evening he brought his sister to tea with me, and afterwards we all went to Chelsea, but on reaching Westminster-bridge coming back, he left me to oome home by myself. I saw him the next morning (Monday), and upbraided him for his conduct. He promised to come in the afternoon, but he did not, and I did not see him again. 'The following Thursday I was ill in bed, when the defendant's mother and sister, with a porter, came to take away the things. I got up, and defendant's mother said to the porter, "Drag away the things; never mind her." The landlady of the house, pitying me, sent to my parents, and they took me home. About the beginning of October, and after the action was brought, I met Mills, whilst coming home from work. He came up to me crying, and said the action was a bad job. It began to rain, and we went inte a tavern. Whilst there, he said he would marry me if I would go down to Gravesend with him. I consented, and we went the next day. We stayed there ten days, and on returning we went and lived in Marylebone.:l stayed there five weeks, at the end of which I had nothing to eat or drink for three days, as he refused to give me any money. He said I must go home, and I went, my parents having again consented to receive me. Whilst at Gravesend, defendant said, "Now I have settled all your law proceedings, and you and your father's lawyer may go to the devil ; and that if his (the solicitor's) name was Game, and he was game by nature, he should not game him out of anything."—( Laughter.) My reason for not going home when I came from Gravesend was not being married. I was afraid. The witness, in continu ation of her evidence, stated that she was in the habit of earningi money at her needle, and also that she had the management of the younger members of the family. Mr. Nash was about to call other witnesses, when The Learned UNDER-SHERIFF, finding no one for the de fendant present, thought it was unnecessary to call any fur • ther evidence. He then addressed the jury, and said that everything was admitted by the defendant except the amount of damages. It was a very serious case, and it was for the jury to say what compensation the plaintiff was entitled to for the loss of the services of his danghter. The jury consulted for about a minute, and returned a ver dict for the plaintiff —Damages, 100/. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. Two young men named Hart and Johnson, who were fashionably dressed, and had very much the appearance of medical students, and a little boy named Johnny Britton, who was what is called " very , tidily togged out," and walked between the other two, in quality of a little brother, were brought before the Lord Mayor charged with having made repeated attempts to pick pockets. Richard Tyas, a beadle, who once belonged to the police, and has a pretty extensive knowledge of the " pocket shakers " of the metropolis, stated, that between twelve and one o'clock in the day, he saw the three pri soners, all of whom he knew to he thieves, walking along Cheapside, and " trying it on " with the passers-by. Hart walked alongside of Johnny Britton, and contrived to hold a cloak before him, to enable him to work at his ease without detection, and the little thief, with very amusing skill, made several experiments, while Johnson was on the-look-out behind. They at last observed that the witness was following them, and they quickly passed out of the street. The witness, however, continued to follow them, and told them that he should give all the officers he should meet notice of their business, and that they had better go over the water to the Borough,where they were well known. Johnson retaliated in strong language, but " little Johnny " scorned the use of words on such an occasion, and made a straight-forward blow at the beadle, who received it on his mouth, and speedily showed blood. Every one in the justice-room was surprised at hear ing of the pluck of so diminutive an antagonist, but Johnny looked contemptuously at the beadle. The witness added that Johnson and Hart showed every disposition to follow the example of the little-un, but were prevented by the interference of other people. The LORD MAYOR—Did you see them attempt to pick pookets ? Witness--Yes ; the last person they tried was a lady, and Britton handled her all about' in an extraordinary manner. the constable, said he knew the prisoners to be expert and daring thieves. The boy was regularly co vered by the othe r two, _an . dhe could w hip out a purse as cleverly as a handkerchief. A great deal was done in saw m that way. BLitbre ; a Britton—That's a lie.e were You going neverme--not one of you quietly along about our business when you came up and mired u nt thieves.no Why should we stand that sort of ri g ? We a thieves. A policeman said he saw the three prisoners u the beadle, and he took hold of Britton , who, though the smallest, was certainly the most formidable. They were all known at the station-house. The LORD MA von--I have no doubt that Hart sni Johnson loci , upon the boy as an instrument with which to commit robberies. lam sorry I cannot send them to the Central Criminal Court fur trial, for they are most dangerous. I shall, however, send each of them for three monthstQl3rideli ell 46 rogues and yagabonds. Johnny Britton—There's 11 3s. 6d. of ourn in the pockets of these here police fellows. They a'nt agoing to have that, are they ? Hart—These police ought not to treat us this way. Johnny Britton—Not a bit of it. I give these rubbish many a shilling.—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—YOU are showing us that the officers are fully correct in their accounts of you. Johnny Britton—They ought not to take our money if they meant to go it this way. That a'nt fair, I'm sure. Arter all they didn't see us take anything ; and if they did, don't we tip 'em to keep 'em quiet ? The prisoners were then committed to Bridewell. The wretched borleft the bar vowing vengeance against the beadle. A young woman, named Louisa Johnson, was brought up charged by Mr. Prentice, pastry-cook, of Cheapside. The complainant stated that the defendant walked into his shop on Tuesday evening, and demanded money from his wife, as recompense for eight months' impri sonment. She had upon those occasions broken his windows, and been punished by the Lord Mayor. and she bad visited him immediately after her discharge from gaol upon each occasion. Witness, the moment his wife uttered the name of Louisa Johns'on," naturally turned his attention to the defendant, whose name was associated with the word "smash," and asked her what she meant by persecuting his family. She replied that she had been eight months in prison, and money she must have, or she would smash Mrs. Prentice and every thing else. As there was no reason whatever to doubt the disposition or the power of such a customer, witness immediately took hold of her to prevent mischief, and called a policeman to deal with her. Defendant—l say, old fellow, what an out-and-out liar you are ! I never said no rich thing. The LORD MAYOR—I have often had occasion to punish you. Defendant—Not ct all. You know nothing at all about me. . The LORD MAYOR—You are altogether incorrigible. You applied to me to take you out of prison, and you promised to conduct yourself well. Defendant—No sich a thing. You blame me for what other people did. I never saw you afore. The LORD MAYOR—You were locked up in a parti cular manner in prison, in consequence of your riotous conduct, which prevented the performance of divine wor ship in the chapel. Defendant—No, I wasn't. I tell you I know nothing about you, and I don't want to know nothing about you. Complainant—For the last two years I have been subject to the most dreadful persecution from this woman. The moment she has been committed for smashing my windows, she has promised when she should come out to do the same, and she has performed her promise. I wish to know what reason she has for attacking me ? Defendant—l have reasons for it. _ The LORD MAYOR—He asks you what they are ? Defendant—l don't choose to make him or you as wise as myself ; no mistake about that old fellow. The complainant declared that his wife was suffering in her health from the conduct of the defendant, and was unable to appear to give evidence. Defendant—" Take that you old rascal (throwing a small scent bottle at the complainant), I'll give it you." The LORD MAYOR, having censured the officers for not having searched so desperate a woman before they brought her to the bar, directed the complainant to ap pear at the Quarter Sessions on Saturday, to exhibit ar ticles of the peace against her. His Lordship then com mitted the defendant, in default of bail, to appear at the sessions. . Louisa Johnson had, previously to her attacks upon the windows of Mr. Prentice, gone the " whole hog" upon the windows of other tradespeople, and would probably have transferred her powers from him to his neighbours, if he had not resolutely followed her up to punishment. The defendant, after leaving the bar, said she would " call again." THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 2, 1844. BOW-STREET. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A ,POLICE-OFFICER.-- George Weston, a sergeant of the F division of police, waa summoned before Mr. Twyford, charged with receiving certain bribes, in his capacity as a police-officer, to screen certain parties against whom warrants had been issued. It appeared that there have latterly been a great many indictments issued by the parish authorities, for the sup pression of certain houses of ill-fame in this district. The warrants in these indictments were entrusted to Weston, to execute, and the present charge was, that he had given, fur bribes, information to the parties, whereby they were enabled to escape punishment. Mr. Ballantyne appeared for the complainant, and Mr. Clarkson fur the defence. The case was gone into on this day week, but owing to its length it was adjourned till to-day, in order that the defendant might have an opportunity to prepare his defence. The facts are shortly these as detailed in the evidence :—ln the month of June last, indictments were preferred against a man named Orchin and his wife for keeping a house of ill-fame in Shire-lane. In that month, the defendant called upon a hairdresser of the name of Clements, who was an ac quaintance of the Orchins, and told him to write to them to inform them that there was a warrant out against them. The witness wrote to them at 'Maidstone to guard against it. After this Weston called again, and said that Orchin had riot given him what he had promised, and told wit ness to write to them about it. The witness did so, and a post-office order was returned for 10s. The witness's shop-boy got the order cashed, and the money was given to the defendant. This witness was subjected to a severe cross-examination by Mr. Clarkson, but his evidence was • not shaken. The Orchins were called, and they corroborated the evidence of the other witness. Another witness was called, named Anne White, and she swore that she had paid Weston several sums of money, in order that he should protect her against the effect of a warrant that was out against her for keeping a house of ill-fame. Mr. Clarkson addressed the Bench at great length, and called witnesses (policemen), who stated that they had often heard the witnesses who had been called state that they would have the coat off Weston's back. Mr. TWYFORD deferred his judgment till Saturday. QUEEN-SQUARE. Six lads were placed at the bar, charged by Mr. Elliott, the master, with riotous and disorderly conduct in St. Margaret's workhouse. From the statement of Mr. Sewell, an inmate of the workhouse, and who has the direction of the boys, it appeared that he was desired to send the defendants with a truck, containing stones, to a stonemason's in Regent-street, Westminster. They proceeded ‘ a short distance when they threw up the shafts of the truck, and upset the stones in the middle of the street. They laughed and made fun of the matter, and were not in duced, without much trouble, to reload the truck, and convey it to its destination. On their return to the workhouse they became exceedingly riotous, and set the " powers that be" at defiance. Their language was most offensive and abusive, and the master and the more peaceable inmates were sorely vexed and embarrassed by the utter recklessness of the juvenile law. breakers. The police were called in, and the master begged of them to take the delinquents into custody. This, however, was sooner said than done. The oldest and most incor rigible of the party, mounted some railings, and de fended his position with some courage and perseverance; Ile was ultimately taken into custody, but not before he had assaulted the policeman. The other lads, whose conduct was equally violent, decamped on the first appearance of the police. Some of them ran up into one of the wards, and ensconced themselves under the beds, and were only taken after considerable exertions on the part of the constables. They were ultimately -lodged in safety in the cells of the station-house. Mr. Elliott said the lads were an incorrigible set, and were continually causing broils and battles in the work house. They were occasional inmates. The defendants severally entered into the " merits of the case." One (he who mounted the railings and defied the police), said the policeman had nearly twisted his arm off. Another, that a waggon ran against the truck, -and upset it ; and the rest denied that their conduct was improper.—One was committed for three weeks, and the others for a fortnight each. The defendants were then locked up, looking " unut terable things" at the master. One, a rather chubby faced lad expressing ff his opinion that the " grub o u g ht to be inquired into. Thomas Mott, a private in the Coldstream Guards, was placed at the bar before Mr. Jardine, charged with the fol lowing impudent robbery : Mrs. Weeks, landlady of the King's Head, Orchard-street, said the prisoner was in her house last night about nine o'clock. Having had occasion to go to the front door, she beard a noise at the counter, and saw the soldier in the act of drawing his hand from the direction of the till. She accused him with robbing her, but he denied the charge. He had ls. sd. in his hand. She could positively swear to a half penny, which was marked iu a peculiar manner, and which she saw in the till a short time before the robbery. A young roan who was sitting near the door of the tap room at the time of the occurrence, deposed to seeing the soldier take the money froth the till. The prisoner solemnly declared that the money was his ; that he was drunk at the time; and when in that state that he was in the habit of carrying the money which he had about with him in his hand. He fell by accident against the till.—He was fully committed for trial. CLERKENWELL. THE LATE ABDUCTION CASE.— William Burton Newenham was brought up on Tuesday, charged with the abduction of Frances Louisa Wortham, daughter of Mrs. Wortham, a widow lady residing in Gerard-street, Coburg-road, Islington. Mr. Southee was for the prosecution, and Mr. Humphries for the defence. The Court was still more crowded than on any former oc casion. Every parrpart of it was thronged to inconvenience. The first witness examined on thiA occasion was Mr. Ham mond, a solicitor, residing in Furnival's Inn, but his evidence was not important. Miss Wortham was also re-examined at some length, but nothing of material interest was elicited. The prisoner was again remanded for further evidence of a technical nature. Yesterday, William B. Aewenham, who has been so often remanded, charged with the abduction of Miss Wortham, a ward of Chancery, was again brought be fore the magistrate. The prisoner looked pale and dejected. His health appears to be suffering from anxiety and confinement, and he seems particularly anxious to avoid the stare of a crowded Court, which invariably meets him. Mr. CONBE ordered William Frederick Clane, the at testing witness to the deed, conferring the property on Miss Wortham, to be called and examined. Mr.lSouthee said he was not in attendance, as they had not been able to serve the summons on him, he having removed from Royston, his late place of resi- dence7 Mr. Comm—Then I shall be undo r the necessity of remanding the prisoner again. Prisoner in a most excited tone and manner—Re manded again S I have been most cruelly treated ; I have been hampered and harrassed by these repeated remands. Mr. COMBS—I certainly understood the witness was to be here to-day. I have nothing to do with thee remands. rrisoner—More than you ought, a great deal ; there have hem Orirate interviews. You have manifested throughout a stron g f ee li ng against me, one not at all consistent with *the impartial discharge of your duty as magistrate, or with the fair administration of justice. Mr. COMBS—Mr. Newenham, the insolence of your language shall have no effect whatever on me.. It is seldom a prisoner is satisfied with The magistrate; and I am so accustomed to hear such language from persons placed in your position, that I always treat it with in difference. But I must say that lam surprised that a man of your education and position should so far forget himself as to be guilty of such indecorum. Prisoner—l have not been indecorous, but.l have just reason to complain of these frequent remands. Mr. COMBE-It was my anxious wish that the case should have been completed before this. If I had not been assured by Mr. Southee that the witness would be here, I would have issued a summons for his attendance, which I shall forthwith do. Inspector Penny was then directed to obtain two sum monses for the attesting witnesses to the deed, one of whom is a female 100 years of ago, and to have one of them in Court a &even o'clock on Monday morning, Mr. Combe observing, that the evidence of one of these witnesses was absolutely necessary to complete the case. At this moment Mr. Humphries, the prisoner's attor ney arrived,declared he considered the..repeated remands were very cruel, and he must add very persecuting to wards the prisoner. He did not mean to convey the slightest imputation on the worthy magistrate, who was not at all in fault. Mr. Southee said it could not be avoided ; the delays arose from unforeseen circumstances. Mr. COMBE—This I know ; I will not send the case for trial unless the attesting witness be here to give his or her evidence, and I will use all the power the law gives me to compel their attendance. Mr. John Hawkins, who sat on the bench, deposed that he was trustee to the property bequeathed by Henry Hawkins, his brother, who died in January, 1843. By his death Miss Northam became entitled to property in Cambridgeshire amounting to between 4001. and 5001. per annum. She was now the tenant entail in possession of this property: An attorney's clerk named Long produced in evidence a judgment fur a debt had against the prisoner, but Mr. Humphries made a technical objection to its production, which was considered valid by the Magistrate. The prisoner was then again remanded. MARYLEB ONE. John Miller, a respectably-dressed young man, was charged with having maliciously damaged an organ, the property of an itinerant Italian musician, named Jean Corti. The complainant was not in Court to press the charge. Mr. ItAwussoN inquired if any of the witnesses were pre sent, when Henry Pearson stepped forward. Mr. RAWLINSON—Just tell me what you know of the case. The witness stated that he observed the prisoner and a companion dancing at the corner of Eden-street, Hampstead road, round the Italian, who was grinding at a great rate. Then the prisoner gave the organ a couple of kicks at the bottom, and lastly kicked it in front, anti knocked in the panel, and tore the silk. Some of those near took pity on the Italian, as he could speak no English, and ran for a policeman. The constable stated that when he came up he found the Italian in the midst of a crowd, and he had the prisoner by the collar. He pointed to the damage done to his organ, and ha (the constable) then took the prisoner into custody. Mr. RAWLINSON (to prisoner)—Well, Sir, you were prac tising the Polka dance, I suppose. Have you recompensed the poor Italian for the damage done to his instrument ? Prisoner—l gave him 4s. Mr. RAwLINSON—I do not think that enough ; you must leave Gs. more, which I will take care shall reach him, and until you leave it, I shall hold you to bail. THE MURDER ON BATTERSEA BRIDGE. Yesterday Mr. Carter held an inquest at the Swan and Magpie, Battersea-bridge-road, on the body of Sarah Eleanor M‘Farlane, aged forty-five years, the unfortu nate female who was murdered on Monday night, some particulars of which app ared in The Sun yesterday. The jury having viewed the body, which lay at the late residence of the deceased, No. 13, Bridge-road, Bat tersea, the following evidence was laid before them. Helen Gibson stated that she resided at No. 1, Culm stock-terrace, Battersea, and that the deceased was her sister. She was a widow, and the last time witness saw her alive was on Monday afternoon. On that night, from information she received, she went to the Swan, and saw the deceased lying in the passage covered with blood. She was subsequently removed to her own home, and witness then saw that she had a wound in her throat. A male person was in the habit of coming to her sister's house to visit his family, who lodged with the deceased. The person she alluded to wished to pay his addresses to her, and had offered her marriage. The insimacy was occasioned by her taking charge of his family, when he ran away in June last year. She was aware that he had published the banns of marriage, but she did not think her sister con templated marrying him, as her friends were opposed to the connexion. She was confirmed in this belief by a letter which she found in a box belonging to her sister that morning addressed to her by this person. He for merly lived next door to the deceased. Latterly he had been in the habit of visiting his children at her sister's. He was named Augustus Dalmas. Dalmas was a manu facturing chemist, and was in the employ of Mr. Groves, at Battersea. The last time she saw him was on Mon day fortnight. James Andrews, a labourer, said that on Monday night he was passing over Battersea-bridge in a cart, a few minutes after eleven o'clock, from Chelsea, when he noticed a man and woman behind him. The man was dressed in a black frock-coat and white trousers, and the female had hold of his arm. On getting near the centre of the bridge he saw a man looking over the parapet, and he hallooed out to him, " Don't jump over the bridge." On the cart stopping to pay toll, the gatekeeper said to the other man in the cart," Jump down,here is a woman in a fit." Witness looked and saw the woman bleeding from a wound in the neck, and told his companion to untie her bonnet ; but before he did so, witness jumped out of the cart and did it himself. The only words he heard the deceased utter were, " Oh, dear! oh, dear!" Tao policemen came tip, and he assisted the policemen in carrying her into the Swan. In answer to questions from the CORONER, the witness said he saw nothing in the conduct of the man and wo man to attract any particular attention, or to excite his suspicion. Richard on he saw a man looking o ver the bridge. On passing he mo Messenger nd ay: n ighinsaid, with his wife, when he was passing over the bridge company looked earnestly at them, but witness did not take par ticular notice of him. When they arrived near the toll house, his wife called out, " There is a woman falling to the ground." He hurried forward, and saw a woman lying on the ground , bleeding from a wound in her neck. He saw no other person on the bridge, with the exception of the man he before alluded to, and two men in a knacker's cart, which passed a few yards in ad vance of himself. By the CORONER—Did not see any' man dressed in a surtont coat and white trousers. He was dressed in that way himself. Ile had not seen the man he alluded to since, nor did he think he could swear to him if he were to see him again. Mr. Wm. Parkins said, on Monday night, about twenty minutes to eleven o'elock, he was crossing Bat tersea bridge on his way home - from Stockwell, when, on getting about twenty-five paces on the bridge he stopped and looked into the water to see the state of the tide. Whilst so doing he heard an exclamation of "Oh dear ! oh dear !" and on looking saw a female coming from the crown of the bridge on the right-hand side. On seeing him she came across, and said, " Will you be good enough to take me to the toll-house ?" She took hold of him by the hand, and feeling her weak, or reeling, as he supposed a tipsy woman might be, he asked why she wanted him to see her to the toll-house ? She re plied, " Some one has cut me." He then held her firmly to prevent her from falling, but she slipped from him on seeing the toll-keeper run towards him. On looking at his hands he found they were covered with blood, and then followed the woman to the toll-house. He asked the toll-keeper what was the matter ? and he replied that she said some one had cut her. She was then being supported by two females, and he saw that she was bleeding from a wound in the neck. She appeared sen sible, but lie did not hear her speak. Whilst she was lying upon the ground he heard a person say that her same was M'Farlane, and that Dalmas had done it. He did not hear the deceased say so. He afterwards went to wash his hands, and on his return he found she had expired. Thomas Hall, the toll-keeper's evidence, was merely a repetition of the statement of the foregoing witnesses. In answer to questions from the CORONER, he stated that he was acquainted with Dalmas, but had not seen him for some time previous to Monday, and that on that day he did not notice him pass over the bridge. Mr. William Gosling, landlord of the Swan, having deposed to the deceased being brought into his house, said, in addition, that, on a policeman coming in, the officer asked the deceased who had done it, when she replied, very faintly, "Dalmas." At the suggestion of witness, the policeman asked again, " Was it Dalmas?" hen she replied distinctly, but in a very weak tone of voice, "Yes, yes." In about six minutes after the de ceased mentioned his name she ceased to exist, and he believed that to be her dying expression. Mr. William Connor, M.D., of Battersea, said he saw the deceased on Monday night, and found her lying in the passage of the Swan. She was then quite dead. On examining her person. he found an incised wound on the right side of the neck of about three inches in length, and at the upper extremities of the wound an itch in depth. The wound appeared to have been made by one cut with some exceedingly sharp instrument. The edges were not at all lacerated. The large muscles of the neck were cut through, as was also,the right lobe of the theroid gland and both the internal jugular veins on the right side. There was no other injury on any other part of her person. It was impossible for her to have done it herself, as the person who did it must have been behind her, and on the right side. Police-constable 36 V, corroborated the fact that the deceased had stated that Dalmas was the person who had inflicted the injuries upon her. She was fully aware of her dying state when she said this. She died in about five minutes after. Dalmas had not yet been taken into custody although every inquiry had been made after him. Mr. Miles, of Chapel-place, Brompton, where Minns resided, said he went up with the policeman to Dal mas' room, and found several letters, which were now in the custody of the police. Augusta Dalmas, daughter of the accused party, said that she saw her father on Monday last at half-past eight. He brought her box, as she was going to her situa tion. Mrs. Macfarlane went with her. Witness's father expressed how much he was indebted to Mrs. Macfarlane for her kindness to his daughter ; and Mrs. Macfarlane and witness then entered the house, and after waiting there ten minutes Mrs. Macfarlane bade her good night, ar.d witness did not see her again. Her father and the deceased were on very intimate terms. Sbe had not seen her father since. Elizabeth Mungham knew deceased, but had not seen her for seven years till Monday evening, when she was standing outside of the White Hart public - house door, in Duke-street, Chelsea, near the bridge. Saw a man and deceased walking in the direction of the bridge, lie laid something that she did not hear, but - .. the deceased replied, "I cannot think of stopping out to night." He had on a frock coat and broad-brimmed hat. She -had on a light dress, black shawl, trimmed white bonnet, and boa. Saw her again about two o'clock last Tuesday morning lying dead. Was sure it was the same female who passed to the bridge. Augusta Dalmas was re-called, and stated that Mrs. Macfarlane was dresses) as described by the last witness, and that her father was in a suit of black, with dress, not frock coat on. Charlotte Gerirgiana Dalmas, the eldest daughter, said that she was in service at 18, Montpelier square. Last saw her father on Monday night, at about 11 o'clock. She was sitting down . stairs; and heard a cough. Knew it was her father, and went- up. She saw him on the steps of the door, and said "Father, how are you this evening ?" He did not reply, but took his pocket-book out of his pocket and put it in her hand. She 'thought his manner very extraordinary, and he ap peared very pale and haggard. She said "Father, what is the matter." He took her by the hand and said, " You must take it, (the pocket book), I have poisoned Mrs. Macfarlane." She fell on her knees, and said "0, father, what have you been doing?" He then stated that he had attempted to do so, but had not done it, and soon after went away. On the same day, about one o'clock, she saw him at the corner of Montpelier-square, and he then pulled her shawl on one side and felt her neck. She said "Father, what are you about ;" and he said, "observing a mole there." Informed her that Augusta had got a situation. She was afraid from his manner that he would destroy himself. lie had known deceased since last June, and they were very friendly. When her father took her hand she found that it had been cut in three places, .and on her screaming he ran away. Sarah Miles said that Dalmas was one of her father's lodgers; that about nine o'clock on Monday night he came home, and went up stairs to his room, and soon after left. His daughter Caroline came there afterwards, in about 20 minutes, inquiring after him. She went up stairs, and when she left witness discovered that two suits of clothes were missing. The witness Caroline Dalmas was recalled, and her present evidence was compared with that she had for merly given to the police ialspector. It only differed very slightly in the verbiage, excepting that to the in spector she stated that her father had a knife in his hand. Louisa Messenger was examined, but her evidence was but a repetition of her husband's. Thomas B:cknell, superintendent of police, went, ix consequence of information received, to Battersea bridge, and examined it. Saw blood extending from the first lamp-post on the. Surrey side up to the toll-gate. It seemed to have been dropping in single drops, as if the person wounded was vwalking, for until be arrived at the toll-gate he could see no pool. The CORONER recommended that, as the case stood at present, they should adjourn, as possibly some more conclusive evidence might be adduced if time were allowed the police to make inquiries. The inquest was then adjourned till Monday next, at two o'clock. COURT OF ALDERMEN. On Tuesday a Special Court was held, tor the purpose of receiving a report from the Committee for general purposes, on the petitions of several solicitors to be admitted attorneys of the Mayor's Court. The report of the Committee was read, and proved to be to the effect that the Committee did not consider it expedient to agree to the applications of the petitioners. Upon the motion that the Court should agree to the report, Alderman WILSON rose to dissent. He could not see why the Court should put the petitioners to the heavy expense of applying to the Court of Queen's Bench for a mandamus, to compel them to accede to the application, when it was for an object the most palpably just and necessary. The recent Act of Parliament provided in the most unequi vocal terms, that attorneys who practised in the superior Courts should have the power to practise in all the infe rior Courts, and contained no clause of reservation. He. should move that the petitioners be admitted attorneys of the Mayor's Court. Alderman Sir C. HUNTER seconded the amendment. The RECORDER said that wi►hout entering into the merits of the question, he should advise the Lord Mayor that it was inexpedient to comply with the request of the petitioners to practise in the Mayor's Court. The question was one of consider able legal difficulty, and that very circumstance rendered it more necessary that hesitation should precede decision. His Lordship would assume that by the general words of an Act of Parliament it could not be meant to confiscate the offices of four gentlemen who had purchased those offices from the Corporation. The Court decided against the prayer of the peti tioners, four hands having been held up for the motion in their favour, and seven having been held up against it. The Court then adjourned. COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Immediately after the adjournment of the Court of Aldermen, a Court of Common Council was held. THE CITY RIGHTS. Mr. R. L. JONES brought up the report of the Committee appointed to consider the report of the Select Committee relative to proceedings having been instituted in the Court of Chancery, at the suit of her Majesty's Commissioners of Woods and Forests, as to the City's rights to the soil and bed of the river Thames, with power to confer with her Majesty's Ministers sad others on the subject, and to report thereon. The report certified that the Com mittee had proceeded in the reference, and had been attended by the Records the Retnembraneer, and the Solicitor, and subsequ held a conference w i t h eil Sir Robert Peel, which Id be likely to lead to a satisfactory result, an . that it was desirable to open a communication with the law officers of the Crown; but the unexpected:change which had taken place, and other circumstand having occasioned con siderable delay, and the timtapproaching for filing an answer to the Bill to provide-r the defence, it was re quisite that they should be empowered to give the neces sary instructions for that purpose. THE THROWING OPEN OF THE MAYOR'S COURT. Mr. ASHURST then rose, and after having made some allusion to the course just pursued by the Court of Alder men on the application of several petitioners to be admitted attorneys to practise in the Mayor's Court, submitted the following resolutions to the Court :—" That it is desirable that the Mayor's Court should be thrown open to the public. That it be refermd to a Committee to consider of the steps necessary for that purpose with reference to the present and future constitution and practice of these Courts, and also to inquire what, if any, compen sation ought to be made to the counsel and attorneys of the Mayor's Court for the surrender of their exclusive offices, rights, and privileges, or any portion of them." Mr. OBBARD seconded the resolutions. Mr. LAWRENCE objected to the resolution. He moved the previous question. Mr. BURN seconded the amendment. The amendment was negatived, and the resolutions were agreed to.—Adjourned. LLOYD'S SHIPPING. LONDON, MAY 1.-Light easterly breeze, and fine. DEAL, Arnie, 30.—Wind E. to E.N.E., fresh. P.M.

SAILING DIRECTIONS FOR THE RIVER ELBE. In the copy of these directions, which appeared on the 18th of April, one or two errors occurred. First section, in stead of "You will then shoal the water gradually, from 5 to 10 or 9 fathoms," read "from 20 to 10 or 9 fathoms." Lower down, sentence commencing " The pilot galliot, when weath permits, lays E. by S.E. two miles," read " E.S.E. two miles." , LIGHT ON CAPE ROCA.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] —COURT BEAUTIES.—Much has been said and written relative to the assemblage of female beauty celebrated under this title. The portraits by Sir Peter Lely and Vandyke, in Windsor Castle, are doubtless faith!'ul representations of those fair and suc cessful aspirants to a notoriety which endures to the, present day. But how gratifying are the conclusions we are enabled to arrive at in favour of our own times ! The polished observances of modern society seem to have had their effects in subduing the bo!d expression of eyes akin to those that beamed upon the Restoration. While a costume ever chaste and resplendent has super. ceded the stiff and formal sameness of the "olden time." And to these important advantages may be added a pleasing restorative and preserver of the complexion, Gowland's Lotion, in removing every species of cu taneous impurity, and sustaining a brilliant vivacity of tint, has long been appreciated in the.highest circles. An assurance of the sterling remedial qualities of this invaluable article cannot be too firmly entertained by all who suffer from irritability and discolouration of the skin.
