The sympathy of Europe is never more acutely touched and awakened than when it is appealed to by the efforts of Greece to consolidate the new position she has assumed among the fdtnilg of morlern nations. ller ancient glory, ._....naatch7 ( ess al'ate in science and philosophy, in arts and arms,—attained its true perfection in the extent and elra:24.er of that refining influence which her . exampllo exercised upon all other civilised States, not only in the ages of her own pre-eminence, but (in a le as or a greater degree) through all succeeding tin 3e. Her sufferings and her wrongs, y period o f e i g h teen hurl , protracted thro sigh g , storm dyed years, tc' the close of the first quarter given her additional c l a i ms of the present ceiltigy,:hid son the generous assistance of European States, who owed her, already, so large a debt of gratitude for the intelligence, the learning, the wisdom, which her noblest children had bequeathed to the most distant posterity. Alternately betrayed by the policy of the Emperors of Germany—excited or deserted by the perfidy of Russia—she had reaped, from her many gallant efforts to shake off the intolerable thraldom of Turkey—since the closing years of the career of Soni- Esxi and MEHZMED—little other but the bitter fruits of unavailing conflict with organised power, and with hopeless physical and numerical superiority. Twenty years, only, remove us from that memorable stage of her eventful story in which she first successfully made head and rallied her resources—scanty as those were—against her Moslem masters. Following up those efforts with incredible pertinacity and resolu tion, at an awful sacrifice of Greek blood and Greek establishments, she rapidly achieved her way to a political position in which she became the subject of protective negotiations between some of the first-rate powers of Europe and the Sultan. From the cha racter of a supplicating appellant for protection against the mere brute violence and exter minating fanaticism of her oppressors, she has now advanced, by degrees which must be fresh in the recollections of our readers, to the rank of an independent monarchy. The noble con duct of the Greek Ministers and the people of Athens, in the revolution of the 15th of September last, was an exhibition of temperate decision, of an inherent genuine love of national liberty, and of a moral power of abstinence, in the moment of their triumph,lfrom all that could sully its lustre or impede its onward pro gress, worthy of the best days of their best patriots and heroes. But it was not to be expected that a weak Prince like King arrio, although some notorious evil coun cillors were then carefully removed from about his person, would be able to redeem, in all sincerity and strictness, the spirit of the pledge he at that time gave to his people, to accept and abide by the bases of a Constitutional Charter forthwith to be prepared for his adoption. There was but too much reason to ap- prehend that—whatever might be the disposition of King Orno (on finding that his opposition to the great national movement in question had proved altogether fruitless, and might, if persisted in, involve him in personal danger) to act up to the engage ment he had frankly given to his subjects—the agents of cirtain Foreign Powers would not, without a determined, though secret struggle, permit the esta blishment of a state of things—the formation of a constitutional Government—which must inevitably prove fatal to the influence of the Crowns they re represented, and to the further success of those Crowns in discouraging the principle of representative go vernment. We have been well pleased to record 'the arrival in this country of a copy of the Constitutional Charter of Greece, consisting of 107 articles, " de finitively settled by the National Assembly, and finally adopted by King OTSIO. The intelligent cor respondent of the Morning Post, in a letter dated " Athens, March 20," has forwarded a graphic and interesting account of some transactions which hare attended the consummation of this great national manifesto. They are calculated to produce a mingled feeling of pity and of anger in respect of the young 'Orr • King of GREECE. Oriio seems tempted to merit the biting censure upon the now excluded section of the Bourbons, conveyed in that reflection of the late M. DE TALLErit AND, that "they have learned nothing ; and—they have forgotten nothing." Thus, says the correspondent alluded to, " when the Charter, after all the protracted discussions upon it, and the intense anx:ety thereby created in the public mind, was, at last, sent to the KING for his ratification, to the surprise and dis- may of most people, his MAJESTY returned it with so many alterations, that the Assembly had to take the matter again into serious consideration. It cannot be denied that, by such conduct, the KING placed. in the utmost jeopardy the popularity he had been gaining during the last six months." In this and other matters, the infatuated yoling man had not only acted " aginst the Ildvice of the repres.en'atives of England and Franc(-, but also that of MivaoconnATo, COLETI i, and the other Greek Ministers, to whom he only communicated a par: of his obje-ctions, and added a great many more without con suiting. them at all, one of whi,2ll was, that political of fences should not be tried by jury. Fortunately-, how ever, the wisdom of the Assembly afforded a great eon trust to the folly of the KING, as it was at once de, cided that, as debates were likely to ar;so, whit.; very open mention would be made of the KING an, his proceedings, it would be proper to have the sit tings secret while such discussions continued. Ac cordingly, for three days the Assembly deliberated with closed doors, at the end of which period it was announced that ten of the KING'S alterations were accepted, and sixteen or seventeen rejected, the Assembly being unanimous on all points. It is notorious that the KING was placed in this false position by having been induced to follow the advice of the Prussian Minister, Mons. BR...ICIER DE ST. SimoN, and that of Mons. PRIVILEGIO—a positia nearly as critical as that of the 15th of September ; but, providentially, his MAJESTY seems to have been suddenly convinced of the error ho had been led into, and. within an hour of receiving the final de- cision of the Assembly, sent down a message to say he adopted the Constitutional Charter as it now stood. The message was received with great acclamation by the Assembly, and the populace went under the Palace windows and cheered, when his MAJESTY appeared at the balcony, and bowed in acknowledgment." This is an ominous indication of the continuous ten dency of "Prussian principles," which, from the per sonal character of his Prussian MAJESTY, we regard rather with disappointment and regret than with sur prise. It suggests matter, too, for some observations on the singularly marked course of Russian counsels in their new delegated channels of Prussian interven- ion, to which we shall hereafter call the serious attention of our readers. Sir JAMES GRAHAM, Home Secretary of State, and consequently one of the most important Members of the Cabinet,—who is, or should be, the Premier's right-hand man—has just been refused that post which, by all accounts, he so much coveted—namely, the Lord-Lieutenancy of the county of Cumberland. Notwithstanding his claims upon that county, backed by his obseqious andunblushing Toryism, Sir ROBERT PEEL has discreetly decided against the "renegade Whig," and has resolved to continue the post in the family of LONSDALE, who have held it for so many years, We cannot say that we are seriously afflicted at the idea of Sir JAMES GRA HAM'S disappointment. On the contrary, we are strongly—some may perhaps say wickedly— disposed to rejoice at it, as furnishing an impressive proof of the declining influence of one of the most notorious political apostates of his day. Had the Netherby Baronet remained constant to the opinions he once held, he would, with the talents which he undoubtedly possesses, but of which he makes so ill a use, have been one of the most influential men in Parliament, and-exercised no slight ascendancy over the minds of his countrymen ; but he preferred the slippery, tortuous path, to the broad, straightforward one, caring little about consistency, provided he could only put himself in the way of getting a snug birth in Downing-street, under the auspices of a Minister who bid fair to maintain his post for some length of time. Well, he has gained the great of ject of his ambition ; he is installed in office under the powerful Tories in stead of under the feeble 'Whigs ; and wl;at is tire conse quence of this realisation of his most cherished hopes ? Why, just this—that at the present moment, not withstanding the high post he occupies in the Cabi net, he has less moral influence with the country than who held the same distin guishedany man ever possessed, position in the Government. His party, it is true, still pay a sort of forced and interested deference to him, because they know him to be possessed of all the useful qualities of a Tory tool ; but no really inch pendent Member cares two straws for what he says, or places the slightest confidenee in his political prin ciples. As a Minister he has shown himself, during the whole period of his connection with the P EE , Cabinet, as little better than a mere bungler. Who forgets the pitiable figure he cut with his Factory Education Bill last year, which he was compelled to abandon in breathless haste, because he refused to allow the arrogant pretensions of the Church to be one jot abated ? There were some good. points in this faulty measure, mentioned at' the time, but the Home Secretary was afraid.to carry therh out, because he knew well as we that the party with whom he acted would not permit the just claims of the Dissenters to be received with the slightest attention. Then look at his famous Twelve Hours' Bill, his bungling management of which—exhibiting, as it does, feebleness on the right, and vigour on the wrong side of the question—has given the Government a shock from which it will be slow—very slow to recover Poor Sir JAMES GRAHAM He is a species of political Mar plot, and adroitly contrives to mismanage and jeopardise every question which he takes in hand. As regards the Lord-Lieutenancy of Cum berland, we are heartily glad that his claims have been rejected in favour of those of the Earl of LONSDALE ; for though the Noble Earl is a Tory— and our admiration of Toryism is by no means ex cessive, but stops considerably short on this side idolatry—yet he is at any rate a manly and con sistent one ; he has never adopted one set of principles today, and another set to morrow, but has maintained throughout his public career a steady, open, undeviating course of policy. Besides, he is known to be a punctual, re solute, intelligent man of business ; when he held the Woods and Forests none were more liked by those with whom he was brought into official contact ; and as Postmaster-General, he is confessedly one of the best that we have had for many a long year. The Morning Herald has put forth the first (we presume) of a series of articles intended to rebut certain fallacies which it declares are " echoed and re-echoed by the Anti-Corn law League agitators and free-traders." These fallacies it assumes to be the allegations indulged in by such parties, " that if the United Kingdom took freely and without restriction the agricultural produce of other countries, they would, with equal certainty and liberality, take her manufactures in return." And again, that "no country can be great or powerful, or wealthy, prosperous, and happy, but a manufacturing country, and that it is, consequently, the duty of legislators and legislation to attend to ma nufactures alone." With regard to the first of these propositions (neither of which is stated, by the bye, with much regard of fairness, or much care to avoid exaggeration in the terms of their statement), the Herald remarks that careful examination of the whole of our imports would show "that we take scarcely anything else ex cept agricultural produce," meaning, by agricul tural produce, everything that is the produce of the soil cultivated by the labour of man. To this definition we shall presently crave attention. The Herald is indignant that it should yet be commonly imagined, and " loudly repeated, that this country either takes no, or but very little, agricultu ral produce from foreign nations." 'With regard to the second proposition, the Herald threatens to re turn to it more at length in a day or two. We shall, therefore, await, with swine curiosity, the more elaborate argument which our Contemporary promises on so curious a topic. It adds, "We shall show this point bears upon our commerce with the United States es pecial;y, and also the value of agricultural property and produce in this country, as compared to that in trade and manufactures. We propose also to show the same things as regards the United States of Ame rica, where the contrast in every part will be shown to be equally striking in the vast preponderance of agricultural over foreign trade and manufactures. Yet no one will gainsay the fact that the United States is a great country." In the meantime we beg to remark, that, if the Anti- Corn-law Leaguers hold that other countries, " if we would import freely their agricultural produce, would, with equal readiness, take our manufactures in return ;"—they do not assuredly mean to say that this either would, or could happen, without previous mo difications of our own antiquated and mischievouS fiscal system. Even the boon that we should extend to the foreigner, by taking his corn off his hands, uncharged with the existing monopoly tax upon it, would not indemnify him for all the disadvantages of general trade with a country that overwhelms the fo reign customer by " customs'" duties, on so many of his commodities, that seem to have been imposed with no other purpose but to effect their virtual exclusion from our ports. So much for the first of the " falla cies" denounced by the Herald. As for the second, our Contemporary seems to overlook the fact, that, be fore he can establish a negative to it,—even in the ex ample he cites, subsequently, of the United States, — he must show that the manufacturing interest does not supply the largest, but are, indeed, the indispensable market for the agricultural produce of a country. If it be true that that market, or consumption, is pro vided by that interest, what the Herald terms " a fal- icy" remains—like the League itself,—" a great fact But in perusing theremainder of the article from which we are quoting, we are reminded of its definition of " agricultural produce." We promised to recur to this, and here it is :—" The following are the articles, the produce of the soil—agricultural produce— which this country takes from foreign nations." Well, what, among other products, do we find enumerated under this very comjrehensive heading, embracing, it seems, "everything that is the produce if the soil, cultivated by the labour of man ?" Why, actually these :—" Spelter! quicksilver ! iron !" In what country these "oracles " of Arabian tales, these ferriferous and argentiferous lands, cropped alter nately with sugar-canes and several ores, "in situ," TIIE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 9, 1844. at the surface, are to be found, the Herald does not te. us. Some arable El Dorado territory he must mean, because he is precise in showing that these are "pro ducts of a soil cultivated by human labour." We might otherwise have supposed he meant to write "products of the earth below the surface" cultivated by man. But the " soil " referred to, wherever it be, has more than a Guano power of forcing production. This soil is further stated to grow " skins and hides," and "furs." To the last, at any rate, we must object, in limine, as any sample of " agricultural produce ;" and the Herald will make but little way in the future progress of its Anti-League argument, if the other data, upon which it is raised, involve such false designations of things as Letters from Madrid, which are to the Ist instant, state that honours and rewards were being bestowed on the Members of the Cabinet, the disturbances having been for the present put down. M. GONZALES BRAVO and the Marquis DE PENAFLORIDA have been nominated by her MAJESTY Knights Grand Crosses of the order of CHARLES M. General MAZARREDO has been appointed a Lieutenant-General, _ and M. CARRASCO, the Minister of Finance, has been ele vated to the dignity of Count Of SANTA OLATLA. M. DONOZO CORTES, who was the person sent to Paris to invite Queen CHRISTINA to return to Spain, has been made a Knight Grand Cross of the Order of IsABELLA the Catholic, and has been appointed pri vate Secretary to Queen IsAnELLA, with a salary of 50,000 reels. The Paris papers of Sunday have been received. Being Easter Sunday the day was observed with rather more solemnity than usual, and but little busi ness was done at TORTONI'S. The Editors of the Gazette de France and the Nation have each been sentenced to a year's imprison ment and a fine of 12,000 f., for a libel on the Govern ment. The offensive publication was a letter, written by M. DE ROCIIEFOUCAULD, Duc de Doudanville, ad dressed to the Gazette, in which it first appeared, and afterwards copied into the Nation. The author of the letter has not been prosecuted. The articles in these papers being mostly on domes- tic subjects, have not much general interest. The vote of the Chamber of Deputies on the Stamp Duties on Newspapers does not excite so much attention as might have been expected ; the Commerce only has an article on the question. A paragraph in the Journal Ilavre states that a conspiracy had been deteCted among the black popu lation of Cuba, the object of which was the-destruc tion of all the whites in the colony. Captain BouR DIN, of the Tigre, who communicates this intelligence to the journal above named, states : " Some days before my departure a vast conspiracy of the negroes was discovered, the obiect - of which was to seize upon the whole of the island of Cuba, and to mur der all the white population. Numerous arrests had T a j r n e f a o d rt 3 u, n ta a k ten en i place, and the number was daily added to. among the number of those who are in prison there figure several of our countrymen (French), all planters from the neighbourhood of Matanzas, and among them are some of the most esteemed of the num ber. These unfortunate men have been arrested on the declaration of a free n&gro, who was formerly the slave ; of one of them. The negro, it is said, for the pimpose of warding off the suspicion which fell upon himself, I went and accused his old masters, and thus got them iwprisoned. AI. Molhe4, the Consul -General of France at the Havannab, was actively engaged with this affair, and there was no doubt that, in consequence of his zeal and firmness, our unfortunate countrymen will soon be restored to their afflicted families." The Tigre left the Havannah on the 3d of March The National still publishes long lists of subscrip tions to the sword to be presented to Admiral DU PETIT THOUARS. The list of Sunday includes a vast number of "Enemies of England." The sums are exceedingly small, rarely going above half a franc. The Three per Cents. remained at 83f. 15c. asked, and 83f. 20c. offered. -- - _ LATER FROM the UNITED STATES. LIVERPOOL, MONDAY. One of the most rapid passages ever made across the Atlantic has just been completed by Captain Burs ley and his noble ship Hottinguer. The Hottinguer left Sandy Hook on the 23d, and made the land in 13 days, when a calm came on and kept her some 36 hours in the Channel without making way. She brings 2,400 bags of cotton. When the Hottinguer left the city of New York, the news by the steam-ship Caledonia had not arrived at New York from Boston. This arrival furnishes news from New York five days later than received by the Montezuma; the papers are, however, unusually barren of interest to the European reader. Commercial matters appear favourable ; in most de partments there was considerable activity. Our New York correspondent states that "the spring has come upon us suddenly. The North River, as well as all other rivers in this vicinity, have broken up, and the steamers are running in every direction. Our list of arrivals shows a great increase. The hotels are filled a month earlier than common. Our merchants are quite actively engaged. The supply of goods is large, and the assortment good. The transportation from the city, south, is through the Jersey and Pennsylvania •canals ; our own great Canal will not be open until the 19th of next month. As the navigation df the Lakes has commented much earlier than usual, the amount of goods to be brought through the Canal will be large." The cotton market has settled down into regular business. The stock in New York was never known to be so large, amounting to above 150,000 bags. Speculation had ceased, and shipments are made in the usual course. Holders were keeping cott on b ac k till the arrival of the Caledonia. There had been a good deal of panic in Wall street on the subject of the Texian question, and a sudden fall of stocks was the consequence. Stock operators have felt the influence of this sensation in the fall of stocks. The agitation still continues to some extent, but it has in some degree subsided. The Texian and Oregon questions are calculated to have an effect on mercantile matters. The rate of exchange on England was 1071 to 108 ; at the latter price a large business was done for the Hottinguer. On France the rate was sf. 32c., but nothing done. We have nothing new from Canada by this arrival. IMPORTANT FROM ST. DOMINGO. CAPE HAYTIEN, MARCHS:Ln is reported h;re that the mayor and municipal officers (seven in number) of Petite Ileviere—a . small town in the west, near St. Marc—were massacred a few days since by the military. On Sunday week the civil officers of this place receivcd an" anonymous note, threatening them with the same fate, unless they should immediately resign; and they have consequently closed their office, and taken down the national flag. The same has been done by several othe'r of the municipalities. . _ _ The cause of thtise disturbances is briefly this:—By the new Constitution the power of the military is greatly abridged, and that of the civil authorities proportionably increased; hence the Constitution is unpopular with the army, which alone has any real power. It is taking matters into its own hands, and the President, it is said, secretly favours the design. Many citizens here appear to think it a mistake to have have effected a revolution— the chief purpose of which was to reduce the army, and then to elect the most successful soldier President. Whether any more serious difficulties will occur is at present uncertain. Business goes on as usual. The brig Rocket, hardy, of Boston, arrived on the 26th ult., the only arrival since our last, per schooner Baltimore. LATER FROM HAVANNALL—WO leara from the pa:- sengers in the barque Hualeo, which left Ilavannah March Bth, that sonic of the slaves .rho had participated in the late insurrection at Matanzas, bad implicated several of the planters at that place, who were arrested by the authorities and thrown into prison. The brig Danube, of and from New York, for Matanzas, was totally lost, on Salt Key, Dog Rock, with the exception of 53,000 in specie, and a small portion of her cargo, anchors and cables. The latter had been sold at Ilavannah. The crew arrived at Ilavannah the sth. STATE OF TRADE. ASHES.—We hear of small sales of pots at $4 50. Pearls continue very dull at $5. FLOUL—This market continues firm. Western, good barrels, fetch, but not in any quantity, $5 a brl. CovroN.—The market to-day is very inactive, about 700 bales sold in small lots ; about 300 bales taken by spinners residue for expor, ; prices unsettled. Several holders are withdrawing their supplies in hopes a more active demand will follow the arrival of the steamer. Freights are again dull at id. for square bales, and id. for round bales.

By telegraphic signal from Oporto we learn that the cannonade against the town began on the 30th. General Mango, the Spanish Governor Of Ciudad Rodrigo, which is a fortified town about 16 miles from Almeida, on the other side of the frontier, has issued a proclamation to the following effect, viz :- Ist. That as long as the troops shut up in Almeida continue to resist, no person will be allowed to enter Portugal from the province of Salamanca, except at the village of Bispo, which leads to Val de la Mula, where the troops of her Most Faithful Majesty are posted. 2. That any persons seized in attempting to cross the frontier at any other point will be punished as a con trabandist. On the 30th ult. were cancelled and destroyed, at the Board of Public Credit, 175 contos worth of Exchequer bills, issued in October, 1842, and 15 contos of paper currency. This act was performed in the presence of the Finance Minister, and several merchants as witnesses. Her Majesty's ship Malabar, 72, Captain Sir G. R Sartorius, arrived here this morning from the Mediter• ranean, on her way to England. NEWMARKET RACES. (RECEIVED THIS DAY.) NEWMARKET SUBSCRIPTION BETTING ROOM, MONDAY NIGHT. The result of the 50Sovs. Stakes caused an immediate reversal of the positions of the two favourites for the Derby ; in the morning the Ugly Buck was at 4 to 1 and Rattan at 5 to 1 ; this evening they offer to take 4 to 1 about Rattan, and to be 6 to 5 on him against the Buck ; the very easy style in which he was making a complete spread-eagle of his horses justified the change, and, as we have before observed, will make " bad hedg ing."

His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge is not expected to return to this country from Corfu until the end of the ensuing month, when the Prince's apartments in St. James's Palace will be prepared for his rec. plin. The Marquis and Marchioness of Ailesbury left town on Saturday, for ten days. for their seat, Tottenham Park, near Marlborough. The Marquis of Salisbury arrived at Salisbury House, Arlington-street, late on Sunday evening, from a short visit to the Duke of Wellington, at Strathfieldsaye, and yesterday his Lordship Lift town for Hatfield House, near Hertford, to attend-the sessions.

MISCELLANEOUS. The members of the Carpenters Benevolent Institu tion, established for the relief of aged and infirm mem bers of the trade, met at Radley's Hotel, Bridge-street, Blackfriars, when, in the absence of Mr. Ewart, M.P., the President, Mr. Thomas Grissel, contractor, took the chair. The Report expressed the congratulation of the Committee on the improved prospects of the Charity, and stated that, although the number of annual sub scribers had considerably augmented, nevertheless the number did not yet amount to one-fiftieth of those en gaged in the trade. The total funds now in the banker's and treasurer's hands amounted to 1611. Yesterday the number of visitors to the British Museum was 21,339. On last Easter Monday there were 18,342, making an increase yesterday of 2,907. Among the recent arrival of foreign artists is that of M. Auguste Pott, chapel-master to the Grand Duke of Oldenburgh, and Regius Processor of Music in the Uni versity of Copenhagen. He is a pupil of Dr. Spohr, and brings letters from that eminent musician to members of the profession in England, highly commendatory of him. M. Pott was selected in 1841 to conduct the great festi val of Salzburgh in honour of Mozart, which attracted together the leading musicians from all parts of the Con tinent, and became one of the most perfect performances on record. A statement having gone forth to the public that some inconvenience would be occasioned in the Dividend- office of the Bank of England in consequence of a num ber of the clerks being required to give attendance at the trial of Barber, Fletcher, and others, at the Old Bailey, for forgery, it is as well to explain, to set the public mind at rest, as the dividends are payable to morrow, that the places of all those who may be absent will be supplied by efficient and competent parties. The melancholy interest created by the awful conse quences of the late fire in Oxford-street continues undi minished. Throughout the whole of yesterday crowds of persons visited the ruins, and it was with consider able difficulty that the police, who were stationed out side the building, could induce the populace to move on, so anxious were they to obtain a glimpse of the scene of desolation.

The King of the French, accompanied by Generals Ayward and Friant, left the Tuileries at three o'clock on Friday for Neuilly. On Saturday during the parade of the National Guards of the Seine, her Royal Highness the Duchess of Orleans, accompanied by the Count of Paris alighted in the Court of the Tuileries. The Count remained in the Court during the whole of the parade. The funeral of Marshal d'Erlon took place at Rheims on the 4th inst. His obsequies were attended by the military and civil authorities. M. Lesseps, the French Consul at Barcelona, has ar rived at Paris with his lady and two children. The French general correspondence states that so great is the favour in which the new bank of Isabella is held at Madrid, that 1,400 shares in it have.been taken in one day, and that out of 20,000 shares, into which the wh ale capital of the concern is divided, 13,000 have been already subscribed for. The Turkish Government have imported a printing, machine of the best and latest construction, from Paris. The habit of smoking has become so universal and so imperious in Belgium, that a carriage in each railway train is set apart for the fumeurs. Ladies who may attempt to get into it by mistake are told its purpose, but no warning of the kind is given to gentlemen. Every man in Belgium, it is supposed, either does smoke, has smoked, or will smoke. The town of Caen is about to erect a bronze statue to the illustrious mathematician Laplace. It is to be fixed on the peristyle of the Academy. Several deputations have presented addresses of con gratulation to Queen Christina on her return, and pre parations were being made for a grand military concert, which was to be given by the garrison of Madrid to celebrate that event. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.) Two dissipated looking young men, named Henry and William Garden, were charged with the following out rageous conduct. — A decent-looking poor woman and her husband, re siding in 111ilfield-place, Stoke Newington, were return ing home about twelve o'clock last night along the Lower-road. The wife caught hold of .her husband's arm to lean upon it. He in sport shook her off, telling her she had walked by herself all day, and must do so then. At this moment the prisoners came up and made use of the grossest and most offensive language towards the couple. The complainant desired them to go away, but they struck them, knocked the w oman d own, and kicked her on the breast. The husband came to her assistance, and him too the prisoners felled to the ground, and treated him very roughly. Walker, 88 N, and several civilians came up, and the prisoners were with much difficulty secured. Two gentlemen named Laing and Grontage, who wit nessed the occurrence, came forward and described the prisoners'• conduct as very brutal. The complainant, when asked if he could account for the conduct of the prisoners, said the only reason he could assign was that they entertained an old grudge against him on account of his resisting them in an at= tempt to rescue a prisoner from the police twelve months ago. — The defence set up by the prisoners was that the male complainant struck their father; but on investigating this allegation Mr. CONBE said that he believed it to be altogether fictitious, and that it aggravated the offence. The prisoners were sQntenced to pay a fine of 2/ each, or a month's imprisonment in the House of Cor- rection. MARYLEBONE.—(THIS DAY.) Bridget 111‘Cann, a young woman, was placed at the bar, charged with a.series of aggravated assaults. The evidence went to show that the prisoner lodged with a Mrs. Atkins, No. 4, John-street, St. John's Wood, and that she went into the latter's room yesterday even ing to pay part of her rent. Mrs. Atkins wanted the whole of it, when the prisoner got very abusive, and struck with great violence a young female who was sewing there. Mrs. Spall (Mrs. Atkin's mother) came in to assist in ejecting the prisoner, when she was struck in the mouth, and tumbled down stairs. A policeman was sent for, and he, on taking her into custody, was attacked in a very disgraceful and dangerous manner by her, and was now suffering from the injuries received. It was mentioned by Mr. Jones, the usher, that the prisoner had been once before the Magistrate, on suspi cion of having caused the death of her husband, in a similar manner. The prisoner admitted having been in this Court on such a charge, but said she was belied, and that the case was dismissed. Mr. RAwLINSON said that it was very evident, from the severity of her attack on the policeman, and her flip pant conduct before the Court, that she was a dangerous woman, and nut sufficiently aware of the violence of her conduct. He should, therefore, endeavour to impress the fact upon her. For the attack on each female she was fined 305.,0r, in default of payment, six weeks in the House of Correction ; and he was sorry that, for her conduct to the policeman, he could only inflict the penalty of 405., or one month there. --The female was then removed. John Turner, a young lad, was placed before Mr. Rawlinson, charged with having been drunk and an noying Charlotte Thompson. The complainant said that some time since she had been keeping company with the p r i soner, and he yester day came to her sister's house, where she resides, forced his way in, broke the kitchen door, and used the most infamous language 'to her. Ile did the same last Christmas. A policeman was called in, and he was given in charge. Police-constable 193 said he was bit in the hand, and tripped up by the prisoner. He had great difficulty in taking him to the station-house. Mr. RAWLINSON—WeII, Sir, this is a queer way of making love to the girl. Why do you go after her at all if she does not like you? I must fine you 20s. Prisoner—l have no money. Mr. 1 1.twuNsoN—Then you go to prison. MARKET NEWS.—(THIS DAY.) ITAIMARIEZTS.

FATAL ACCIDENT AT HUNGEREORD MARKET.— ' Mr. Higgs held an inquest yesterday at the George, Castle-street, Leicester-square, on the body of William Payne, H aged 35, a port er in ungerford-m ar k et . I t ap peared in evidence that the deceased was on Thursday last employed to unload a barge of some mangel-wurzel. The barge was moored off the market, about ten feet from the shore, so that deceased had to carry his load along a plank. As he was on the middle of the plank, with a load on his shoulders, the barge was unexpectedly set in motion by the swell of a steamer leaving the pier, I and the plank being shaken the deceased fell into the,. water. An alarm was instantly spread, and the'drrAgs were brought and put into operation without delay. h e was found in about ten minutes, but quite dead, -."Ver dict—" Accidentally drowned." " THE ROOKS HAVE LOST THEIR PLACES."—The rooks that formerly tenanted the trees cril the parade in the Tower, as well as the crowns at the summit of the White Tower, built by William Mullis, and which they inhabited for many successive generations, have vacated that locality for about eight years. Until that period likewise there was a celebrated rookery in the large tree in Wood -street abutting from Cheapside.

Thomas Percival, a seaman, was brought up, charged with conveying smuggled spirits from a vessel in the river. The Excise officers being on the alert the preceding afternoon observed a sailor lowering himself from the bows of a vessel into a boat alongside. When he got into the boat, the officers perceiving that he had a large bladder apparently full of liquor underneath his jacket. rowed their boat towards him with the intention of securing him. The prisoner, on seeing their object, pulled away with all his might to escape his pursuers; but, on finding they were gaining upon him, he jumped out of his boat into the river and swam towards the stairs. He, however, did not reach the stairs, but contrived to get into another boat alongside a collier, and jumped upon deck, at which time the officers secured him, but it was then found that the prisoner had very dexterously got rid of the bladder of spirits. Mr. TRAILL said that it was fortunate for the prisoner that the spirits were not found in his possession, for if it had been, a conviction must have followed. The evidence against him being therefore incomplete he was entitled to his discharge. The prisoner hitched up his trousers, and seemed delighted to have escaped out of the clutches of the law. Another sailor named Johnson was charged with con veying smuggled tobacco. This defendant, however, was not so fortunate as his fellow-prisoner. Johnson, it appeared, was seen by Inspector Judge, Thames police, walking along Toole -street with some thing bulky underneath hi s j ac k e t. When stopped and examined. 81bs. of tobacco were found in his possession. The defendant, a stout-looking man, began to cry, saying that the tobacco was given to him, and that he was ignorant it was an offence to carry it along. Mr. TRAILL fined the defendant 1001., and he was in formed that for any mitigation of the penalty he must petition the Lords of the Treasury. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) George Garrett and James Dunford, a chandler's shop keeper, living at No. 2, Little Chesterfield-street, Mary lebone, were placed at the bar, the former charged with robbing his employer, Mr. Thomas W. Jefferies, of No. 39, Old Compton-street, Soho, butcher, and the latter with receiving the stolen property. It appeared that the prisoner Garrett was the pro-e -cutor's foreman, and such implicit ,trust was placed in him that he was allowed to transact the money and con fidential part of the business. Latterly, however, Mr. Jefferies's sister, who is residing with hi m as house keeper, suspected that Garrett was dishonest, and hav ing placed herself on the watch, this morning she saw the prisoner Dunford come to the shop at an- early hour with a basket, the shop boy having been sent out of the way by Garrett on a trifling errand. Garrett then proceeded to take pieces of meat, (one of them half of a salted round of beef) from different parts of the shop, which he put into Dunford's basket, and he was going away with them when the police were called, and they were both given into custody, on which Dunford offered to give a sovereign to settle the matter. The prosecutor said from what he had since ascer tained, he had every reason to believe that this system had been carried on for upwards of twelve months. The meat Dunford was carrying away was of the value of about 14s. 6d. The prisoner was fully committed.
