I‘',I4I)DLESIEX SFSSIONS. (Before the Assistant Judge.) The f(TaTal jury having terminated their tabours this morn ing (Wedrer..av), as-cmbled in a body. before the Assistant Judge, for the ptn - pose of b:ing discharge.i in the ususJ manner. The Foreman, in stror g terms, expressed far nialstlf and brother jurors, their disr.pprohati , n of being compelled to at tend this Coml . , to inquire into the very trifling charges pre ferred against the several prisoners committed for trial, and presented the followirg resolution confirmatory of that opinion .4 The Grand Jury are of opinion that they are quite unne cessary in the examination of the cases that are tried before this Court. (Sigred) " HENRY THORPE, Foreman." A list of sixteen others followed. The Learned ASSISTANT JUDGE expressed his concurrence in their view of the case, and said that the subject was at pre• sent under. the consideration of the authorities. Mary Ann Bland, aged 20, was indicted, charged with stealing a purse and the snm of 55., the property of Mary Barney, on the 27th of August. On the day in question the prisoner was observe 1 by a po liceman to make several attempts to pick the pickets of diffe rent ladies, whilst looking in through the windows of various shops in the vicinity of Leicester•square. lle eventually de tected her piekin t the pocket of the prosecutrx, who was standing at the as indovv of a it.lop in Sydney alley, and found the purse in her hand. Mr. HostaY defended the prisoner, and urged upon the jury the improbability there was in the statement of the policeman, when, as he would show, that the prisoner was moving in a respectable sphere of life, and the wife of a respectable man, who, together with the prisoner, was engaged in the theatrical profession. The facts were, the prisoner on the day in ques tion was sent by her mother on business to the neighbourhood the policeman had seen her, and had been, as well as other ladies, looking through the shop-svindows, and not out, as stated by the policeman, with the intention of picking pockets, as her circumstances were such as left her far beyond a neces sity to resort to such means of obtaining a living. And the very day she was taken she and her husband were to have been on their way to Dublin, to fulfil an engagement which they had entered into at a theatre in that city ; and had re cently concluded an engagement at one of the provincial theatres, where they had been performing with considerable success. Mrs. Hall, the prisoner's mother, was then called to prove the counsel's statement ; she deposed that her daughter had been for some time engaged with her husband, Mr. Henry Bland, in theatricals. Witness had sent her out on the day in question on some business. Witness herself was a dress maker, residing in Windmill-street, Haymarket. The jury found her Guilty. The prisoner burst into a flood of tears, and earnestly be sought his Lordship not to transport her. The JUDGE having read her a severe lecture, cautioned her as to her future conduct; for if she appeared in that dock again he would certainly send her out of the country. The sentence of the Court was, that she be imprisoned for six months, and be kept to hard labour. Mr. Bland, the prisoner's husband, then entered the wit ness box, and requested his Lordship's permission to hare an interview with his wife as he was about to proceed to Birming ham in the morning. The Learned Assistant-Judge granted the application. Dennis Denny, 23, pleaded Guilty to an indictment, charg ing him with assaulting Charles Nicholas and others. The prisoner had been a very disorderly character, and fre quently convicted for similar offences. 'the present charge, it will be remembered by our readers, occurred a short time since in Gray's Jun-lane; it was a most ferocious assault, and the prisoner had offered considerable resistance before he could be secured. . The COURT sentenced him to twelve months' imprisonment and hard labour. Margaret Collins, 41, was indicted for stealing 60 yards of diaper, value 405., the property of Wm. Early and others. Mr. O'Brien defended the prisoner. A witness was called to prove the charge, but in cross-exami nation by the Learned Counsel, he failed in proving the exist ence of a third partner, the goods having been laid in the indict ment as the property of Early and others. Mr. O'BRIEN then submitted to the Court that the pri soner must be disch irged upon the nor,-formality in the in dictment.—The prisoner was consequently discharged. SURREY SESSIONS. Yesterday George Paul Fitt was indicted for defrauding Isaac Thomas Pearman of sums amounting to 21. 12s. 6d., un !er various pretences, he at the same time acting as attorney to that person. From the evidence of the prosecutor and his wife it appeared that their son had been in the county gaol for some weeks pre vious to the last Surrey assizes, on a felonious charge, and that wishing to have professional assistance on his behalf, they em ployed the defendant to act, and supplied him with money to retain Mr. Charnock, the barrister. This occurred a few weeks previous to the assizes. On a subsequent occasion he proceedA to the prosecutor's residence at Thames Ditton, and informed him that the charge against his son had assumed a more serious aspect than had been at first anticipated, and that, in consequence, Mr. Charnock had desired him to say that he would require another Counsel to assist in conducting the de fence, as he could not possibly talk and write against three, who had been retained for the prosecution. The latter words the defendant particularly ascribed to the Learned Counsel mentioned. Owing to such representation the defendant received the sum of two guineas, though at the time the prosecutor and his wife were suffering from great distress. On another occasion the defendant said that he would require the sum of 10s. 6d. for drawing up a petition to a society which he said was established for the purpose of assisting poor prisoners, and which he was confident would award the sum of 101. on presentation of the said petition by Mr. Charnock. He obtained the sum of 10s. 6d. under such pretence, and on seeing the prosecutor and his wife a few days afterwards in formed them that the application was successful, and that he would receive the 101. at the termination of the trial. The prosecutor, however, soon found that there had been no truth whatever in any of the defendant's statements. Mr. Charnock, who sat in the barristers' box, was sworn, and stated that he received a brief on the occasion of the last Surrey sessions on behalf of the pro•eutor's son, with the sum of one guinea marked on it. He tuund that the bill sent before the grand jury was ignored, and the matter ended so. The brief passed through his clerk. He had no recollection of ever seeing the defendant then at the bar at all on the subject; he certainly never told him that three counsel were engaged for the prosecution, and that he would require another gentleman to assist him ; and he (Mr. Charnock) did not believe that any such society existed in the county as the one referred to. The defendant addressed a few remarks to the jury, and as sured them that he had acted properly throughout the trans ac. ion. Some witnesses were examined, who gave him a good cha racter for honesty, &I. The jury immediately returned a verdict of Guilty, and The CHAIRMAN, in passing sentence, observed that, after receiving the proper stun for conducting the defence of the proscutor's sun, the defendant thought proper, by gross misre presentations, to exact other amounts, which he was informed were actually the proceeds of the sale of the poor man's very bed. rn ju:Cce to the class to which the prosecutor belonged, as well as to the public in general, he would pais the commen surate sentence of twelve months' imprisonment in Brixton House of Correction, with hard labour. James Douglas Gordon and Robert Owen Walton were in dicted for obtaining two half-sovereigns from a Mrs. Jane Cal vert, of Oakley, Sturey, by means of false pretences. The ca , e came on for hearing the previous day, when a ver dict of Not Guilty was returned on the indictment preferred, ow:rig to some legal omission. A second bill was sent before the grand jury, and a new in dictment preferred; but on the case coming on for hearing this morning, Mr. CHARNOCK, on the part of the prisoners, submitted that the indictment was similar to the one preferred on the previous day, and, consequenly, that no further proceedings could be legally adopted against the prisoners. Mr. WALLINc EK was heard on the part of the prosecution, and a discus ion, which last :d several hours, en_ued. The COURT, however, overruled the objt ct;on. It appeared that in August last, the prisoner Walton went to the house of Mrs. Calvert, and being then dressed in livery, represented himself to be the servant of the lion. and Rev. J. E. Boscavron, and produced a letter, directed to Mrs. Calvert, which recommended a supposed object of charity to her consideration, and which was written as if coming from Mrs. Buscawon. By means of this letter the prisoner Walton obtained two half-sovereigns. On being taken into custody, the livery was found in Cordon's pos.ses,ion, and he had also been seen in Walton's company. The prisoners were found Guilty, and were each sentenced to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE THE EXTENSIVE DEEREDATIONS BV PORTERS ON THEIR Fla LOY E ItS -- Edward Brazier and Joseph Hincks, porters, late in the employ of Messrs. Fincham and Potts, wholesale grocers, of Alartin's-lane, Cannon-street; and Robert Way -14;094, late in !he employ of Messrs. Miller and Locock, whole sale grocers, of Queen-street -place; and John Williams, a retail grocer and tea-dealer of Whitmore-road, Hoven, all of wham were remanded from last Saturday, were all brought up for re-examination before the Lord Mayor. The three first-named prisoners were charged with having jointly robbed Messrs Fincham and Potts of a parcel contain ing about 161 b. of tea, and one of about 14:b. Williams was charged with receiving the same, knowing it to be stolen. All four prisoners were formerly in the employ of Messrs. Fincham, and it would appear from the partial confessions of some of the prisoners, that extensive and systematic plunder has lows been carried on, but it is only within these three weeks that the deficiency of an unaccountable nature in the stock of Messrs. nneharn induced the latter gentleman to consult Mr. Inspector Waller, of the City police force, who directed It Ace)! and Climbs, two of the detective, to keep a watch on the premises ; but it was not till Friday last that they succeeded in discovering Williams in the act of placing the stolen property in a cart, which, with smaller parcels not identified, as also the horse and cart, were taken possession of, a id tho four iris ,tiers captured and conveyed to the police- eta ion. Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, appeared on this occasion for the Moiler ; Mr. Humphreys, as solicitor for Brazier, Mr. Hailer for Hincks, and Mr. Pelham, for Williams. The whole of the evidence was read over which was taken on the former occasion. The chief additional evidence was given by Mr. John Potts, of the firm of Fincham and Potts. That gentleman stated that himself, Mr. Locock, and Mr. Young, the solicitor, went on the previous day to Giltspur street Compter, where Waywood, without any inducement being held out to him, confessed that about half-past seven o'clock on the morning of Friday last he called upon Hincks at Messrs Fincham's w a r e h ouse , an d a s ked him ( llincks) to put a little up," who accordingly weighed up the large bag of about sixteen pounds weight, which was first put in a canvas bag, and conveyed by Waywood t o hi s own h ouse , and there transferred into a largo paper b ag b e l ong i ng to hi s employers, Messrs. Miller and Co. (This w as t h e parcel which the officers saw Williams bring enclosed in a blue bag from the direction of Waywood's house, and place into his (William's) cart, where it was afterwards seized.) After the case had lasted several hcurs, the Lord Mayor re manded the who!e of the prisoners till Friday. Previous to the above cases being gone into, a man name d D,lniel Cunningham; was put to the bar with the above-named John Williams, the former charged on suspicion of s t ea li ng .veral flasks of salad oil belon g in g to his employers, Messrs. Pritchard,. di Smithfield, and Williams was charged as the re ceiver. The wife of Waywood, a prisoner in the above case, having communicated that Cunningham had br o ught the oil to her house, from whence Williams had taken it away, the officers made a further search at Williams's shop, and found eight flasks of oil corresponding iii number with those described, for which no invoice could be produced. A clerk from Messrs. Pri;chard's attended to identify the oil, but could not do so satisfactorily. The Loan Mayoa accordingly said, that although he felt no moral doubt on the subject, there was not sufficient evi dence to warrant the detention of Cunningham, who was con sequently discharged, Williams being detained on the former charge. GUILDHALL. An old nun, named William Bowes, was brought before Mr. Alderman Kelly for re-examination, charged with stealing a copper and ether articles. Mrs. Hillier, of Water-street, Blackfriars, stated that about a fortnight ago she employed the prisoner, who was the inmate of a workhouse, to carry the copper, &c., to Messrs. Pontifea's. THE SUN, LONDON? TRURSDA Y EVENING, SEPTEMBRIt ll, 1845. . She accompilnled him, saw the old copper weighed, and gave directions for a new c.,-,pper to be made in exchange. This W7..3 to be ready for her in a few days. On Saturday the prisoner called non Iler and said the new copper ‘503 rot ;;Ct ready. She a. , ke,! him how he knew that? He replied he had called at Ale:ssrt. l'ontifex's. She had not required him to call, and her sn?pic:ons being arous',7d, she called herself at the foundry, and discovered that the prisoner had obtained the oh! copi, r by falsely pretending she had sent him to fetch it . way. The warehouseman said, the man who brought the co, per fetched it away. In consequence of the non-attendance of the warehouseman to give evidence, the prisoner was remanded, to enforce his ap pearance. John Jowitt, the witness. now attended, but though he was sure the property was redelivered to the min who brought it, he could not recognise the prisoner. 1k thought if ihere was any loss it should fall on Mrs. Hillier, and not on Mes,.rs. Pent fex. _ Mr. Alderman KELLY thought there could be no doubt cn that point. It was Messrs. Pontift•x who had been deceived and defrauded by a false representation, not Mrs. Hillier. The witness said this w:s very hat d. The Alderman said it would be more so to cast the loss on Mrs. Hillier. As she came with the goods they should not have been redelivered to her porter in her absence and with out her order. The prisoner admitted he fetched the copper away, and said he lost it. The Alderman committed Lim for trial. MARYLEBONE. Mr. Joseph Oaten, 1;; of the firm of Finney and Oaten, coal merchants, South Wharf-road, Paddington, was brought up by Glasscnek, 22 D, by whom he had been apprehended at Livt rpool, on a warrant obtained against him at the instance of the parish authorities of Paddington, on the charge of having deserted his wife and four children, who had thereby become chargeable to the parish in question. Prior to the case being gone into, the defendant caressed all his children (girls) in the fondest manner imaginable, and the whole of them vr, re in tears ; his wife had no conversation with tim whatever. From the statement of Mrs. Oaten, it appeared that she had been married fourteen }ears to defendant, and that he deserted her in May last, leaving her and her four children to provide for themselves in the best way they could ; he went off with another woman, with whom he had since been living, and com plainant had, in consequence thereof, been under the necessity of applying to the parochial officers fur support. Mr. RawnirtsoN (to defendant)—This is a short and very lamentable story ; what have you to say to it? Defendant — I left her because it was quite impossible that we could live together. Mr. RAWLINSON—You surely don't imagine that you could be justified in running away from her and the children, leaving them to be kept by the parish, while you, at the same time, are living in adultery with another. Defendant-1 am out of a s,tuation now, Sir, and £0 I was when I left them. Mr. Percy, the relieving officer, claimed 3/. ss. for thirteen weeks, at 5-. per weak. Defendant had been employed by the Great Western Railway Company as a " mapper," and was capable of making a good income. The defendant, with whom the releving officer declined to come to any arrangement, as the Board of Guardians instructed him to press for a committal, was sent to the House of Correc tion for a month. visited Mr. Wiscce, on Sunday last, a golden locket belonging to the prosecutor's daughter, a lace collar, three handkerchiefs, habit shirt, five books, and various other articles, the whole of which were identified by Mr. Witcce, A short time bef,,re the prisoner was brought before the magistrate, her mother de livered to Mr. Wi::coe a parcel containing two bs d-gowns, a chemise, and a petticoat which had been sto:en from his house• In addition to the property recovered, there vas a considerablo quantity still missittg. The prisoner made no defence to the charge, and she was committed for trial at the Central Criminal Court. SINGULAR and FATAL OUTRAGE. NEWMARKET, SEPT. 10.—A most painful interest has been produced in this town and neighbourhood by the perpetration of a premeditated and brutal outrage upon the person of a highly respectable inhabitant, whose death is universally de plored. The name of the deceased is Henry Thom, who car ried on business as a hatter. The accused is Richard Archer, also a person of respectability, having been for some time ma naging clerk to a solicitor. As the affair is still in course of legal investigation, it would be premature to characterise the offence ; but, so far as the evidence before the Coroner's jury has gone, it is evi.lently one of a very aggravated description. The origin of the quarrel between the parties arose out of some proceedings in the Bankruptcy Court, relative to the affairs of a person named Edward Edwards, against whom a fiat had been issued. The creditors having resolved to oppose Ed wards the deceased (Mr. Thom) was selected to conduct the opposition. It seems that Archer was a personal friend of the bankrupt • and though Thom did not in any way exceed the duty which he was called on to perform, he provoked the hos tility of Archer, who repeatedly proclaimed his determination to have revenge. These threats he found opportunity for car rying into fatal effect on Saturday evening last when meeting the deceased in the market-place, near his own door. Archer, after a few angry words, struck Mr. Thom two heavy blows, which knocked him down, causing concussion of the brain. The deceased was carried home in a state of insensibility, and, though medical aid was promptly obtained, he died on Sunday morning, surviving the injury only a few hours. Archer has since absconded. Information having been given to Mr. H. Wayman, the Coroner, a jury was impanelled on Tuesday, at the Three Tuns, to inquire into the circumstances. The jury having viewed the body, the following evidence was taken : Robert Pettingale, labourer, deposed that, on Saturday afternoon, he was sitting opposite the shop of Mr. Drake, butcher, in the market-place ; heard two persons quarrelling, who proved to be Archer and Mr. Thom. Saw Archer strike deceased two blows in the face with his clenched fist. The deceased did not return the blows; he merely tried to defend himself by putting up his hands. At the second blow de ceased felt backwards, his head striking the pavement with great violence. Witness went and endeavoured to lift up the deceased, bat he was unable to stand. Archer said, " Don't you call me a liar again," and walked away. The de• ceased was carried to his own house, which was only twelve or thirteen yards from the spot. Archer was formerly clerk to Mr. Kitchener, solicitor. He appeared to be the youngest anc'.lkhe strongest man of the two. Did not see that deceased struck Archer at all. William Clarke stated that on the day in question he was at work in his mother's garden, adjoining the market-place. Having overhead some loud talking he looked over the wall. Saw the deceased lying on the ground. Saw Archer walking away. He appeared to be in a great passion. He said, " I'll teach you not to call me a --- liar any more." The deceased appeared to be quite insensible. James Wiggins was next examined. His evidence merely corroborated that of the two previous witnesses. Mr. J. Gamble, surgeon, stated that he was sent for to attend the deceased. He was then sitting at the side of his bed, having previously had a fit of retching. He was at that time quite collected. He complained of feeling a dull pain on the right side of his head. His nose and mouth were much swollen, apparently from a blow. He was bleed ing from the nose. There was a slight swelling on the right side of the head, but no other external appearance of injury. Ordered some medicine, and saw deceased again at four o'clock, when he seemed rather better. Leeches were ap plied to the temple. The deceased then seemed to be going on favourably. Was sent for again at seven o'clock. The deceased had then lost all consciousness, and was frothing at the mouth ; his breathing was forced, and there was every other symptom that concussion had taken place. Mr. Peek, another gentleman, was called in, but nothing further could be done. The deceased died during the night. Had since made a post mortem examination of the body, in conjunction with Mr. Peck. On opening the head found a mass of clotted blood, at least four ounces, between the duramater and the bone. The brain and the duraniater were pressed almost fiat. The accu mulation of coagulated blood was evidently caused by the rup ture of an artery. Discovered a small'fractures near the spot. It must have been occasioned by violence, such as a blow or a fall—it could not have arisen from natural causes. The Coroner and jury conceiving it necessary that the medical evidence should be carried still further, the inquest was adjourned, but the Coroner issued a warrant for Archer's apprehension.

In order the more effectually to carry out the objects which they had in view, it was intended that the London and Birmingham Company should work this line, and the public would see by the rates of charge upon the present line somethimx like the reduction which they might in future expect: The people of Halesowen would have the advantage of an admirable station in the centre of Birmingham. Resolutions, proposed and supported by Mesas. Hodgetts, Haines, Hurophray, Wood, Bloxham, Darby, Best, and others, wore passed unanimously in favour of the undertaking. Our announcement last week that the operations upon this line had commenced upon the Bury side induced several hundreds of people to visit the neighbourhood of the mer maid-pits on Sunday last. The scene, -we understand, pre sented the appearance of a fair, save that nothing could be 'more orderly and decorous than the conduct of the people. The works are proceeding rapidly, and it is expected that by next week considerable progress will be apparent.—Bury Herald. IPSWICH AND YARMOUTH COAST LINE.---A treaty has just been concluded with this and the Norfolk Company, fir an extension of the flamer line to Norwich, Iv ith branches to Beeeles and Bungay. The capital will be increased, and the Norfolk Company will take shares in the Ipsxsich and Yarmouth. . CEN . TII* STATION.—At a meeting of the ---- - Birmingham town commissioners, on Tuesday, resolutions were passed in support of the proposition of the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Stour Valley Company to establish a grand central terminus in Birmingham fur the lines radiating north and south. _ _ CALEDONIAN.—Last week there was a public demonstra- tion at Car,tairs, to celebrate the commencement of the works on this line.

EXTENSION RAILWAY FROM TEMI'LEMORE TO NENAGIS AND TILE SIIANNON.—The Directors of this CoMpany have determined upon an amalgamation of the two lines, namely, that from Templemore to Nenagh, with the original line from Nenagh to the Shannon. The applications for shares in the entire line from Templemore to Nenagh and the Shannon, are treble the amount that are for disposal. The allotments will take place in a very few days, and every necessary form will be gone through in due time to secure the Bill for the Com pany early in the next session of Parliament.—•Nenagli Guardian. INTENDED RAILWAY FROM ENNISKILLEN, THROUGH DUNG.INNON TO PORTADOWN.—An influential meeting of the inhabitants of Dungannon, and of the leading landed interests in the neighbourhood, took place on Wednesday last, in the Court-house there, at which Lord Northland presided, when a series of resolutions were unanimously adopted in favour of this undertaking, and a sub-committee appointed to prepare the necessary prospectus. Mr. I.any-on; our county surveyor, and Mr. Davison, from Belfast, at tended, at the request of• the deputation. Both gentlemen stated that they would have pleasure in undertaking, in con junction with Mr. Rowan, the county surveyor of Tyrone, the conduct of the line, provided it was supported by the leading gentry of the county, end the inhabitants of the towns interested in the project ; but that, without such co operstion, they should not interfere. The proposed line will join the Newry and Enniskillen Railway, within a few miles of the latter town, and pass through the towns of Lissmelan, Fivemiletown, Augher, Clogher, Dungannon, and Vemers bridge, and join the Ulster Railway, at Portadown. The entire country is rich and populous • and the feeling evinced by this meeting was unanimous in favour of the undertaking. —Northern Whig. NEW METROPOLITAN ASYLUMS. ST. LUKE, CHELSEA. The Board of Guardians of the parish of St. Luke, Chelsea, held their usual weekly meeting yesterday, in the board-room at the workhouse, Arthur-street, Mr. J. B. Ryder, chairman of the board, in the chair. After confirming the minutes of the last two meetings, and the transaction of some ordinary business, Mr. Loveland, the clerk, read, amongst other communications to the board, the subjoined letter from the poor-law gentlemen of Somerset house, in answer to the following memorial:— "TO THE POOR-LAW COMMISSIONERS FOR.

" The Memorial of the Board of Guardians of the Parish of St. Luke, Chelsea, in the county of Middlesex, " Showeth—That your:memorialists have received with con siderable surprise and concern, an order from the Poor-law Commissioners, directing the uniting of the parish of St. Luke, Chelsea; with the parishes of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields, Ken sington, Paddington, St. Marylebone, St. George's, Hanover square, St. James, Westminster, and St. Margaret and St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, into a district, to be termed The North-western Metropolitan Asylum Districts, for the purpose of providing and managing one ,or more asylum •r asylums for the temporary relief, and setting to work therein, of destitute houseless poor persons, who are not charged with any offenee, and who may apply for relief, or become charge able to the poor-rates within any of the parishes above named.' " That in the year 1841, after obtaining, at great trouble and expense, a new Act of Parliament for the government of all matters relating to the management of the poor of Chelsea, this parish was separated from Kensington Union, in which, kir four years, it had been incorporated. " That the separation gave, and continues to give, the highest satisfaction to the ratepayers, as well as to the poor, whose 'in terests and welfare were sacrificed by the prejudicial working and unwieldy extent of that union, which comprised Chelsea and four other large parishes. " That since the separation, a very considerable outlay, amounting to upwards of 4,0001., has been incurred by this board in adding extensive new buildings to the workhouse, which will accommodate a third more inmates than there has yet been occasion for. " That the poor-rates of this parish have been augmented by having to pay the interest, &c., of the moneys borrowed to erect these new buildings; and that the said rates will be still further unnecessarily increased by having to contribute to the building and maintaining of these contemplated asylums. " That the workhouse of this parish now possesses every means for lodging a much greater number of destitute house less poor than have hitherto applied for relief; and of setting them to work in as efficient a manner as can be done in any asylum to be provided under the late Act of Parliament. " That your memorialists arc quite sure that, had there existed the slightest reason for supposing that Chelsea would be united as now directed—a great portion of the present work house accommodation would not have been provided, thus ob viating an expenditure which, should the intended combina tion of parishes take place, will become perfectly useless and unnecessary. " That under these circumstances, your memorialists beg leave to represent to sour Honourable Board, that they enter tain the most decided objections to the connexion of the parish of Si. Luke, Chelsea, with the proposed district asylum ; and to hope that you will take these premises into your considera tion, and rescind the said order. " And your memorialists, &c. (Signed) "JOHN B. RYDER, Chairman. " Caleb Collier, D. North, R. S. Cooper, J. Maynard, George Todd, Thomas Symons, John Butt, 'l'. B. Green way, Charles Bateman, J. Evans, W. Edwell, F. Gas kelt." "Poo-law Commission-office, Somerset House, 1 September 9, 1845. " Sir,—l am desired by the Poor-law Commissioners to acknowledge the receipt of the memorial of the Board of Guardians of the parish of St. Luke, Chelsea, on the subject of the order recently issued by the Commissioners for the for mation of the North Western Metropoli!an Asylum Dis trict,' and am to state that the memorial will receive the consi deration of the Commissioners.—l have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient verdant, . " GEORGE COODE, Assistant Secretary. ‘ To J. B. Ryder, Esq., Chairman of the Board of Guardians of St. - Luke, Chelsea." Mr. F. GASKELL—WeII, they (the Commissioners) were civil for once.—(Bear.) Mr. EDWELL said their Chairman had been treated most courteously by these gentlemen, addressing him as they had done. Ile had no doubt they meant well.—( A Voice—" We hope so.") The CHAIRMAN said he could not help auguring well from the letter just read of the success of their case.—( Hear, hear.) It would, indeed, be most unreasonable and unjust for the Poor-law Comn.isiioners to object to their (the Guardians') demand. No memorial ever presented a fairer case. He (the Chairman) perceived that the parish of Marylebone was up and stirring, and he did hope that the other parishes, interested in the opposition to this intended union, would also be up and oppose the intentions of the Commissioners. —( Hear.) The parish of Chelsea is to send two members to the district board. As the election is ordered to take place on the first board day after the 12th inst., the Chelsea guardians cannot be in a position to proceed to an election at their next meeting, which will he the 17th, consequently a new order, if the parish is to be united to the other eight parishes, must be issned. Several of the Chelsea guardians appear to entertain the be lief, from the letter read yesterday from the Commissioners, that that parish will be exempted from the order of the Com • missioners.

Robert Green was brought up in custody of Police-con stable Tester, 89 R, charged with maliciously destroying a fir tree, in the plantation of Lord Saye and Seale, at Bostleheath, parish of Erith. Mr. William Smith, being sworn, deposed that on Wed nesday, about eleven o'clock, he saw the prisoner in the planta tion attached to Belmont, the residence of his Lordship, get up a tree, and, when at the top, in the most wanton and mali cious manner he snapped off the head of it. He immediately laid hold of the prisoner, who refused to give either his name or address, and he took him along the road, till he met Police constable Tester, 89 R, into whose custody , he gave him, when he told him both his name and address. He is gamekeeper to his Lordship, and has frequently cautioned the prisoner to keep out of the woods and plantations, but to no purpose, for he would come to set snares for game. The injury done amounted to las., and it is so often repeated by dissolute idle characters, that he now felt compelled to request the magistrate to make an example of the prisoner as a caution to others. He might have constant employment in the brick field, but he would not work, though he could earn 123. per week easily. Police-constable Tester, 89 R, said he knew the prisoner to be a bad character, and one who prowled about at night. His brother had offered him a good home but he would net go to it. Mr. GROVE said it was a most wanton and malicious act to damage young trees in that manner, as it took years to replace them again. As the prisoner could get work but would not do it, he thought him a most fit person to make a severe example of, and should therefore commit him for one month and hard labimr, to Maidstone gaol. If ever he came there again he should go for three months.—Committed. HAM AI E SAIIIT EL Mrs. Rosina Daley, a respectably-dressed female, was brought up from Isleworth before Mr. T. Paynter, the sitting magistrate, in the custody of Moore, one of the warrant officers of the Court, on a charge of having threatened the life of Mr. Michael Merigan. Mr. Merigan stated that he lived at No. 16, Moore-terrace, Peckham, Surrey. Witness had eleven houses in South-street, Isleworth. On the evening of Saturday last, while witness was having some furniture moved into one of the houses for the purpose of occupying himself, the defendant, who keeps posses sion of one of the houses against witness's will, put her head out of window and threatened that if witness attempted to put a foot into her house she would split his head open. Defendant was a most violent woman, and had before attacked him with a bill-hook. William Taylor deposed that he was a broker, at Isleworth. On Saturday last he was empowered by the last witness to take possession of two houses belonging to him in South-street, Isleworth. While doing so he heard the defendant threaten to split Mr. Merigan's head open. She had before attacked witness with a chopper. Police-sergeant Pool, T 12, said the case ought not to have been brought to that Court at all, as the dispute between the parties had been very fully gone into by the Bench of Magis trates at Brentford, who had, on Saturday last, held Mr. Me rigan to bait, and had said that she had been most improperly turned out of her house. Mr. Pat LATER. said it was easy to see why the case had been brought to that Court. Mr. Merigan, if he laid claim to the property must obtain possession of it in a legal manner. lie should order the defendant to enter into her own recognisance of 10/. to keep the peace, and Mr. Merigan must pay the cost of the warrant. The defendant having entered into her own recognisance was discharged. WANDSWORTH. Jane llawhins, cook in the service of Mrs. Amelia Tritton, sen., of Plough-lane, Bath rsca, was charged with being con cerned, with two other persons, who stand remandvd, in plun dering that lady of a large amount of property. Mr. Gilham attended for the prosecution, and Mr. Games for the defence. _ _ After hearing witnesses, the prisoner was remanded until Saturday next, when she will be brought up with the other pri soners, Mr. PAirtirrEa. refused to take bail in any amount. John Tannoch, engineer, at the College of Civil Engineers, Putney, was finally examined upon a charge of committing an assault upon Anne Tanaoch, his wife. The assault of which the wife now complained, took place on Monday night week. The prisoner came home drunk, accused his wife of infidelity, and then with his iron fists struck her on the head and face until she was a mass of blood, and it is extremely probable that the prisoner wou!d have ended his brutal attack by murdering his victim, but for the interference of a Mrs. Chance, who rushed into the hou.e, and found the poor creature pleading for mercy. The surgeon who dressed the wounds described one on the head as being an incised wound made by some sharp instrument, and consequently the prisoner was remanded for the attendance of a medical man. The complainant and Mrs. C::ance both said the prisoner used no instrument. _ The prisoner, in an insolent tone, said he hat! nothing to saj—be wts sorry for it. It was done, and couldn't be helped. 111 r. PAYNTER described the assault as the most brutal he had ever had to adjudicate upon. It ought to have gone for trial, but the wife was ev:dently reluctant to prosecute, and, therefore, he should order the prisoner to pay 5/., or in default to be committed for two months with hard labour. Committed in default. THAMES. A lad named Henry Rainer, aged 15, was put into the dock to answer a charge of stealing 51. 10s. in money from a box in hie mother's best-room. The case was a very distressing one indeed. Mrs. Ann Rainer, an infirm old lady. residing at No. 33, Johnson's-street, St. George's-in-the-East, stated that the prisoner was her son, and he had frequently robbed her. On Saturday morning last the prisoner left home, and a few mi nutes afterwards she had occasion to go to her box, which she kept under lier bed, and missed two sovereigns, a half-sove reign, four half-crowns, and ten shillings, which she deposited there on the previous day. She at once suspected her son, who slid not return till morning, when, on being questioned, he became very insolent, and. refused to give any account of him self, and owing to his threats and violence she was compelled to give him into custody. Mr. MODEair —And is it your intention to prosecute? The witness, who was much affected, said she scarcely knew what to do. Her husband, who was the captain of a South Seaman, would not be home for some time, and her eldest son was also at sea. She was alone in the world, and had been most grievously wronged by her yr urger boy. Two ships had been procured for him, but he would not remain in either, and was constantly pilfering anything he could lay his hands on. Edward Gray, a police-constable, No. 59 11, stated that the boy was given into his custody, and that he brought home with him a pistol, a powder horn, and some percussion caps, which he hail purchased with a portion of the money be had stolen from his mother. The boy said he bad purchased a jacket and waistcoat with some of the money, and had spent the remainder with other boy s. He asked him what he had been doing since last Saturday, and he replied that he had been rowing about the river in boats, and sleeping during the nights in a barge alongside Execution Dock, Wapping. The prisoner was asked if he had any defence to make, and he replied sullenly, " No, Sir." Mr. BuonErtir said this was a most lamentable case. The poor woman . who appeared to prosecute her own child was quite alone in the world; her husband absent on a whaling voyage, and her eldest son far away from her at sea ; and, as the only means of checking the career of the prisoner at the bar, she was compelled to have re c o urse t o thi s p rocee di ng , and a very severe one it was. He hoped this case would be brought under the notice of the Worthy Assistant Judge, at the Middlesex Sessions, and that the lad would be prevented from returning to his evil ways, for if he came . out of prison he mu s t either prey upon the p u b lic, or upon his unfortunate mother. The prisoner was then committed to the Middlesex Sessions. Emma Watts, aged 17, was brought befor Mr. Brode r ip, on a charge of robbing Mr. Richard Wiscoe, a gentleman, of 24, Colet-place, Commercial-road East, of property to a con siderable amount. The prisoner entered into the service of Mr. Wiscoe exactly five weeks ago, and his daughters had missed property from various dra'sers in the house almost daily ever since. On Tuesday afternoon one of the young ladies missed a shawl from a drawer, and some pictures which a child had been playing with on a bed in the course of the day. On the same evening the prisoner asked fur and obtained permissicr. to go out for an hour, and one of her master's daughters,' suspecting that she had been a policeman,eenpilfering,spoke to her father on the subject , who named Whittleton, 173 K, to take the prisoner into custody directly she left the house. The police man obeyed the instructions given him, and brought back the prisoner to her master's house, and she immediately dropped a white cambric handkerchief upon; a chair, and a large pot of scented pomatum, rolled from it. The policeman then asked her it she had any other prop er t y a b out her. She replied in the negative, and said she wished to retire to the hack part of the house. The policeman refused to allow her to leave the apartment, and lc ft her there a short time with Miss Susan Wis c oe, who directed her to undress, and found upon I cr the shawl and the pictures the had missed on the same day. The prisoner begged of the young lady to forgive her, raid promised not to offend again. The prisoner was ordered to put her clothes on, and when she bed done so, the policeman was called in and took charge of the property anti the prisoner tko;andshe delivered to him a key which opened the locks of all the drawers in the house. The prisoner said she found the key at the bottom of a drawer in the child's bedroom. After Whittleton had locked her up, he proceeded to her m other's dwelling, where he found a gold pia belonging to a gentleman who NAMUS or EAILIVAIS.

ANDOVER, WEDNESDAY.—This morning the post brought a letter from the Poor-law Commissioners in London, to Mr. Westlake, the medical officer, with instructions to Mr. Parker, the Assistant-Commissioner. The following is a copy of the letter to Mr. Westlake : " Poor-law Commission-office, Somerset House, Sept. 9, 1845. " Sir,—The Poor-law Commissioners have bad under con sideration the length to which the inquiry at Andover has already extended, and the suspense, as well as the outlay, to which both parties interested in this inquiry have necessarily been exposed. All this must be still further incurred if the in quiry is continued in the same form. " On these grounds, and because the Commissioners wish that :some, at least, of the questions now raised should be brought before a jury, they have determined to take the follow ing course : " 1. The Commissioners will cause an indictment to be preferred against the master in respect of any one case of as sault with improper intention alleged to have been committed on a pauper whilst an inmate of the workhouse. The Corni, missionsrs will take any case which you, as the accuser of the master, may suggest, and will cause the bill to be preferred at the next quarter sessions, which v. ill take place in the month of October. " The Commissioners will, in like manner, cause an in formation before justices to be laid against the master or matron, under section 97 of the Poor-law Amendment Act, for any one act of embezzlement or misapplication of food, clothing, or goods belonging to the union, which you may select. It will, on this charge, be open to any one to show that the inmates have not received their full and proper allow ance of food. " It is needless to say, that if the master is convicted by a jury on the first of these charges, the Commissioners would at once dismiss him from office. " If he is convicted on the second charge, he becomes dis qualified by the operation of the Act from holding office here after. If an indictment for embezzlement or theft be thought more effective, the Commissioners have no objection to that form of proceeding, instead of the information under the 97th section of the Act above referred to. " 'the Commissioners are convinced that this course will at once be the most satisfactory and the most expeditious in bring ing the matter to an issue. " In order to remove misapprehension, the Commissioners wish it to be understood that they will cause the indictment to be prepared, and the Bill to be preferred, and the information to be laid, at the cost of the Commission ; but they will not un dertake to defray, out of the funds at their disposal, any sub sequent expenses, either for the prosecution or the defence. The parties making the charge can in this, as in every other case, take their own measures to obtain a conviction, and the master must, of course, provide for his own defence. " The Commissioners will also recommend to the board of guardians that they suspend the master and matron until the result of the indictment and information is known, and place some other persons in charge of the workhouse. The discre tion of doing this is, by the regulations of the Commissioners, vested in the board of guardians. The Commissioners can dismiss, but this of course is a step implying a final decision on the merits of a case, on which no evidence as regards the master is yet before the Commissioners, and on which they must lie understood as expressing no opinion whatever. " Mr. Pirker, Assistant Commissioner, will be directed, on the receipt of a copy of this letter, to suspend all further inquiry until the result of the indictment and information shall be known, since the continuance - of such proceedings in the inter val might be held to prejudice the case one way or the other. " The Commissioners request that you will notify to them, as soon as possible, the exact cases which you desire to select in such a form as to enable the indictment and information to be properly prepared forthwith. The Commissioners have no objection to both of them being seen by your solicitor before they are finally settled. They also request, with reference to the former, that you will supply them with tie list of witnesses necessary in your opinion to support the bi 1 before the grand jury. " I am, Sir your most obedient servant, ( Signed) " GEORGE COODE, Assistant Secretary. " To T. C. Westlake, Esq." Thus, for the present, the inquiry is brought to a close, just as all the evidence for the prosecution had been adduced, and before one witness had been called for the defence. FALKIRK SECOND TRYST. This great market commenced on the usal ground at Sten housemuor yesterday. On the previous days a great quantity of stock had been verging towards the spot ; and Sunday pre sented a good display of black cattle and sheep in all tie sur rounding fields. It is certain, however, that southern pur chasers bought largely some days before the market, and the appearance of the moor was fully two•fifths less than is usual at a second tryst. This eagerness to supply themselves with stock of course gave an impulse to sales ; and although in va rious districts in England the foggage and turnips are not abundant—the latter, about Cumberland, having a good top aid the root defective—still, as sheep had to be disposed of, Englishmen were anxious to secure early and top lots. Accordingly, business began early in the morning, when a great many droves changed hands. '1 he first lot we saw leave the ground at nine o'clock was 243 black-faced wedders from Ross-shire, at 20s. to 225.; 160 black-faced vteddersfrom Mull, were sold to an Edinburgh dealer at I/. Is.; 140 half-bred ewes, three and four y ears. from Caithness, fetched 225.; 200 black-faced crocks from Skye sold at I Is. ; 200 white-faced ewes from Mull, were sold by Messrs. M'Lean and Stewart to Mr. Graham, Newbigging, at 18s. 6d. Five score black faced evtes sold by Mr. Robb, Ochills, at 51. per score, clad. 700 black-faced wedders, Coll M'Donald of Glen finning's, went to Ayrshire at 6 .6/. per clad score. 600 from Stron sold to Messrs. Guthr:e and Ayton, Ayrshire, by Messrs. Kennedy and Morton—price unknown. 400 black faced weddcrs, Morrison of Salochan's lot, to Mr. Harrison, Cumberland, at 24/. ss. per score. General Cameron's lot, black-faced weddera, sold at 23/. per score. 15 score black faced wedders from Rannoch sold by Mr. M'Martin to Mr. Little, Cumberland, at 21s. 7 score and 9 black-faced weddera to Mr. Todd, East Lothian, price not stated. 600 black-faced ewes from Inverary, sold by Mr. M'Kenion to Mr. 'Meson, Halls, Yorkshire, at 14s.—a capital lot. 200 black-faced crocks from Perthshire to York, at 10s. 6d., Mr. M'Nlartin. Sir. James Scott sold the top lot of 2,000 cheviot weddera at 345. 6d. Up to four o'clock numerous other lots of a similar description were disposed of, prices being equally high. The general good condition of beasts was no way im paired by the heat of the weather, and although we will not definitely state the actual rice per cent., it is apparent that an advance has taken place which in the state of the market may still prove favourable to dealers, should their keep prove good. In the afiel noon the cattle began to come upon the grounds principally small Highlanders. The show of all sorts is anti cipated to be great. Fillies were numerous, but few saddle or (fraught horses have yet appeareo. Altogether this first day is highly advantageous to the northern breeders, and augurs ell for the prosperity of th e s outh. - Edinburgh Advertiser, Se,:t. 9.

LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY.—The Proprietors in this Corn pany held a special general meeting to-day, for the purpose of determining as to raising. and the mode of raising, the further capital authorised to be raised by the Act for the construction of the Trent Valley Railway, to make orders and directions in relation to the new shares to be created in pursuance of the powers of the Amalgamation Act, and also to consolidate the paid-up shares of the Company into capital stock, and on other special affairs. The meeting was most numerously attended. Mr. Charles Laurence presided. The following report was read by Mr. Boone : " The Directors are happy to announce to the Proprietors the successful issue of their application to Parliament for an Act to consolidate the Bolton and Leigh, Liverpool and Manchester, and Grand Junction Railways. In the pro gress of the Bill through Parliament, the Directors had to contend against the opposition of sundry railway companies and commercial bodies ; the alleged ground of objection being, that the amalgamated companies would become so powerful in their combined arrangements, that it would be difficult for minor interests to contend . against them. Par liament, however, having sanctioned your application, it remains for . the amalgamated company to prove to their former opponents that any increased efficiency or influence which they may . possess will be used; not alone in the furtherance of their immediate interests, but in the promo tion of the public accommodation. The Directors are happy on the present occasion to refer to their published advertise ments, announcing a reduction of fares, with improved arrangements, both on the Birmingham, and on the Liver pool and Manchester lines. And they refer to these in creased facilities of transit as an earnest of their desire to combine, with a due attention to the interests of the Pro prietors, a corresponding regard to the convenience and satisfaction of the public. With respect to the traffic of the present half-year, the Directors are glad to report a considerable increase upon that (41844, and the experience of each month establishes the desirableness of that ex tended accommodation in stations and approaches at this end of the line, for which the authority of Par liament has ncav been obtained, and which the Directors are preparing to carry immediately into effect. In the Amal gamation Act power has been obtained to convert the whole of the paid up shares into capital stock. The facility which such a measure will give to the purchase of railway stock, without reference to the machinery of shares or half shares, is so obvious an advantage, that the Directors rely on the sanction of the Proprietors to the resolution which they will propose for carrying this provision of the Act into immediate operation. They intend still further to recommend Grand Junction stock to the favour of the public, by abolishing all charges on the registering of transfers, or on the issue or en dorsement of certificates. After the 30th instant, this busi ness will be transacted at the secretary's office, without cost to purchasers, though certainly involving some additional expense to the Company. The Directors have further to an nounce, that, with permission of the Proprietors, they propose for the future to discontinue the payment of intermediate quarterly dividends. This operation has entailed consider able pecuniary loss on the Company, while the preparations requisite fur the issue quarterly of so many dividend war rants, and the unavoidable closing of the transfer-office, during the operation in the middle of each half-year, has proved a serious interruption to business. The Directors do not regret having given to the measure a fair trial, but they have come to the conclusion that the general objections which they have briefly stated, are not compensated for by any adequate advantage to individual Proprietors. The Shareholders in the late Grand Junction Company are aware of the intention of the Directors (as announced in their report of the Ist of August) to obtain authority in the Amalgamation Act for the issue of new quarter shares, to be allotted in the proportion of one new quarter to the holder of each 100/. Grand Junction share, or of shares amounting in the aggregate to 100/. This provision of tke Act the Directors propose to carry into effect by the immediate issue of 25/. shares, upon which dividends will be payable in the same ratio as on original shares, less five per cent. interest on the amount not paid up. The calls on these shares will be made by such instalments, and at such periods, as the Directors may judge expedient. In the published report for the half year ending 30th of June last, it appeared that there was a surplus balance, or reserved fund, belong ing to the Grand Junction, proper, of 64,008/. Bs. 10d.; and the Liverpool and Manchester Proirietors will recollect that there was a surplus in that c,•imern, over and above paying the half-year's dividend, of 10,4681. This latter som it is proposed to carry to the surplus fund of the Amal gamated Company, and in addition to it, the sum of 19.1471. from the surplus balance of the Grand Junction, proper, as above stated ; these sums being proportionate to the respective capitas of the two concerns, and con stituting a surplus balance of _29,615/. to the credit of the Amalgamated Company. By this arrangement, the sum of 19,147/. must be deducted from the Grand Junction surplus balance, as stated above, 64,0081., deduct 19,147/., leav ing 44,8611. applicable as a bonus to the Shareholders of the Grand Junction, proper. The Directors propose to the holders of the 22,033 Grand Junction shares a bonus of 2/. per share equalling 44,066/., and to the holders of the 22,033 eighthl shares, which must be considered at present as live per cent. stock, compared with the re mainder at ten per cent., they propose to allow a bonus of 1/. per cent. on the 5!. paid up, or ls. for each one eighth share, or 1,101/. 135.. making together 45,167/..135:, leaviag the small balance of 3061. 13s. to the debit of profit and loss account. It is proper also to mention that the contingent claim to a residue of back interest on the Liverpool and Man chester old shares must be considered now to cease and de termine ; as, from this time forward, there will be but one common fund applicable to the purposes and fur the benefit of the Proprietors indiscriminately of the Amalgamated Grand Junction Company." A series of resolutions, founded Upon - the recommendations in the report were moved seriatim by the Chairman, and car ried unanimously. On the motion of the Chairman it was also resolved that in future the dividends be paid half-yearly. The CHAIRMAN announced•that the new church at Crewe was ready for presentation, and it has necessarily to provide for the maintenance of the minister. On the motion of Mr. Casson, the Directors were empowered to endow the church with a sum sufficient to secure the consecration, and to pay a further sum annually to the minister, so that his income be not lees than 2001. per annum. A committee was appointed to obtain a portrait. of Mr. John Moss, the late chairman, as a mark of the - Proprietors' sense of his services. BIRMINGHAM, WOLVERHAMPTON, AND STOUR VALLEY. On Tuesday- a meeting of the inhabitants was held at Halesowen, in Worcestershire, in favour of this line, Mr. John Meredith in the chair. The meeting was influentially attended. Mr. Score, M.P., one of the deputation, stated that the line was brought forward purely for local purposes, and in order that the line might pass through those districts where the inhabitants stood most in need of railway accommoda tion. The great object they had in view of coming to that district was to enable them to open a new mining district of immense resources. It was intended to unite the line with the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton, and Grand Junction lines, but without detracting, unfairly, from the traffic of either. It was intended to start the line from Birmingham to Smethwick, from thence to Oldbury, and to Wolverhampton, and a branch would start and pass through the hill above the valley in which they were then assembled. It was intended to bring the line as near that ancient town as the ground would permit, and to pass through the vale of Stour on to Stourport. In Halesowen there was a large mineral district unwrought and inclosed within the surrounding hills, over which it was impossible to cut a canal. They were also aware of the peculiar charac ter of the river Stour, am; that there were more works ad joining it than any other river in the kingdom. The line would pass at or aenearHalesowen aswas praticable, and the engineering difficulties, if any existed, might be overcome by atmospheric agency. Three-fourths of Halesowen goods went to Birmingham, and an immense proportion of their pas sengers also went to the same town ; very few, indeed, went to Worcester: therefbre they would have a decided advan tage by having such an immediate communication with !lir mingham. Tiiey would also be enabled to get directly into the north by means of various branches, and thereby forward their goods to many parts of the kingdom to which at present they had not access. At Kidderminster they would join the Welsh Midland lines. The South "Wales country was very little known at present, very few persons were aware of i t s great im portance, or the benefits to be derived from a communication with the Welsh vales. It would be ofvastimportarice to the iron mastersin the district of Halesowen . if they could get their mixtures from Wales. Indeed, they could not conceive the great advantages that would arise to them from the pro posed railway. It would bring them into the great railway system, the full advantage of which it was intended they should derive from the company wiVi whom the present ~,/ hOilil . . . .
