The object of the projected line is to form a railway . commu nication between Brighton and Chichester, commencing by a junctionl with the present branch line of the London and Brighton Railway at Shoreham, and terminating at Chichester, by which means the facility of a railway communication with London will be afforded to the inhabitants of Chichester and Arundel, and the watering-places of Bognor, Littlehampton, and Worthing and when the projected Railway to Hastings is made, will open a railway communication extending nearly 70 miles along the coast of Sussex, and connecting the eastern and western divisions of that county. The distance between Shoreham and Chichester is 23 miles, over a country so level that the rails will be laid nearly upon the present surface of the ground, and, consequently, when completed, the road will be maintained at an unusually mode rate expense. The land through which the line is to pass is gricultural, and there are no buildings, except a few cottages, zcbe taken. The estimated expense of the land, earthwork, bridges, and masonry for a double line, and a single line of road laid, with stations, and necessary conveniences to make it complete, is 300,0001. From the very easy description of the work, the line may be opened to the public in twelve months from the commencement of it ; and the gradients being favourable, it will be worked at a cheap rate. There are responsible parties willing to contract for the exe cution of the whole of the works, including all contingencies, - within the estimate, taking 40,0001. in shares as part payment. The necessary notices have been given, the plans and i sec tions have been deposited, and it is intended to apply n the ensuing session of Parliament for an Act to carry the works into execution. The existing traffic has been carefully investigated, and cal culations have been made on it in the usual way, whereby it has been ascertained that the proposed line will yield a revenue, chiefly from passenger traffic, of upwards of 40,0001. a year, which, after deducting the expense of working at 40 per cent. upon the receipt, will leave a balance of 24,0001., being 81. per cent. per annum upon the capital. The Plans, Sections, Estimates, and statement of traffic having been submitted to the Directors of the London and Brighton Railway Company, they have:agreed (subject to the confirmation of their Proprietors at their general meeting on the 7th of February next), to lease the line for ten years from its completion, at a rent of 12,000/. per annum, being 4/. per cent. upon the estimate, dividing the net profits equally between themselves and the Proprietors of the pro jected Railway ; or, if the Proprietors of the projected line should prefer to keep the line in their own hands, the Brighton Company will find the working power on terms to be agreed on, Applications for Shares to be made on or before Tuesday, the 6th day of February next, in the following form, addressed to the Secretary of the Brighton and Cbiehester Railway Com pany, at the London and Brighton Railway Office, London Terminus, London-bridge. Those who have made applica tions for Shares to the Solicitor need not repeat them, as the letters already received will be laid before the Provisional Directors. " I request you will allot to me Shares in the Brighton and Chichester Railway Company, and I agree to accept such Shares as may be allotted to me, and to pay the de • posit upon the same, and execute the Parliamentary Contrac and Subscribers' Agreement, when required so to do.

BETTS'S PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED BRANDY having been analyzed by the most eminent Chemists, is certified to be the purest and most wholesome spirit for every purpose. As a beverage its flavour cannot be distinguished from the finest Cognac. For preserves and all other confectionary or domestic uses, it is unrivalled ; and it is prescribed, in preference to Foreign Brandy, by the highest Medical Authorities, at Guy's, St. George's, and the Westmin ster Hospitals ; at the Manchester, Bristol, and Brighton Infir maries ; and, indeed, at all the principal Hospitals, Infirmaries, and Public Institutions throughout the Kingdom.

Sir JAMES GRAHAM must ,in future be the English FOUCHE, the director of spies, and the selector of implements, such as his acquaintance with the Carlisle Patriot supplied. And then the jury—a jury not intended to try guilt or innocence, but to convict—it may happen, that the prosecutors have been mistaken; but they believe they are safe in their packed jury list, as Sir C. O'LoGiILIN, indignantly termed it. No Englishman who watches the progress of this trial can avoid pitying the Government which is obliged to use such an Attorney-General as Mr. SMITH, and despising an Attorney-General who can show such want of judgment, as he exhibited on this trial on Monday. Dreading the sympathy which the appearance of Mr. O'CONNELL would create at the Conciliation Hall, and finding that he had gone thither, Mr. Attorney- General SMITH insisted upon Mr. O'CONNELL'S remaining within the precincts of the Court during the -trials, and threatened to call him upon his recognizances, if he did not immediately appear. Is there any English Attorney- General who would thus have acted ? None, in our memory. But such a trial for such an offence, never took place in our times, supported by such evidence, and before a jury selected in such a manner. It only wanted Mr. Attorney-General SMITH to make the farce of " Law without Justice" complete in all its parts. And mark the effect of such proceedings. Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN, at the Conciliation Hall, stated openly as follows : The seventh annual dinner of the Buckingham Con servative Association took place in that town on Mon day last. The Duke of BUCKINGHAM was in the chair, and among the !guests were Sir THOMAS FREMANTLE and Mr. PIGOTT, the former of whom, notwithstanding that he was urgently solicited to speak out, took care to maintain a discreet reserve respecting the intentions of Ministers as regards the corn-laws. Though the meet ing professed to be friendly to Government, yet it was by no means unanimous on the subject, and Mr. DAY BELL but spoke the sentiments of many of those who were present, when he observed, " it was not necessary to go into a history of the proceedings of the Ad ministration, or examine their acts one by one ; let them look generally at their spirit, and ask themselves whether those acts were of a nature to com mand their confidence. When he stated, at the last an niversary, that they would not then receive the health of the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Govern ment with the same enthusiasm as before, some gentle man objected to the observation ; but he must say subsequent events had tended to confirm his views, that their sentiments of regard towards Ministers had under gone some alteration." Considering that the Bucks Association professes to have confidence in Sir ROBERT PEEL, as one who will take special care not to seriously damage the interests of the monopolists, we do not think the above frank and truthfu l observation--which was received with loud cries of "Hear, hear"—wears a very encouraging aspect for the Premier. A gentleman named PIGOTT " gave tongue" with surprising volubility on the subject of the Anti- Corn-law League, which he described as an audacious attempt at fraud and humbug, compared with which all former attempts at knavery were merely so many out bursts of excessive modesty ! He then alluded to what he calledthe " blasphemous pamphlets" of the League— blasphemous, we presume, because they dare to rail against the omnipotence of monopoly—and added with uncommon unction, "he believed in his con science that a more barefaced attempt to palm off a conspiracy for private purposes as an associ ation for the public good—a more barefaced attempt to render the vital interests of the whole nation subservient to the avarice and ambition of a comparatively small number of the people—was never in our whole history witnessed before." This, it must be confessed, is sound, hearty abuse, not unadorned with such pearls as fall from the lips of Billingsgate fishwomen ; and we must own to having been exceedingly amused with the evident sincerity that pervades it. Strange to say, however, im mediately after having disburthened himself of this load of vituperation, the speaker stated it as his decided con viction that " the League were now powerless, because they were unmasked ; they had not a single class in the country with them." Why then launch the fierce thunders of your indigation against them, Mr. PIGOTT ? Why take such pains to raise them into im portance by pouring forth the full vials of your wrath upon their heads ? If the League be really so insigni ficant as you would have us believe, surely it is lost time and most egregious impolicy to visit them with such truculent abuse ! No man ever dreams of " breaking butterfly upon a wheel," or condescends to visit with his stormiest indignation those whom he holds in utter contempt, and feels to be utterly powerless. He wisely leaves them to their insignificance, and reserves his denunciation for those whose hostility may be dangerous to him. Whatever he may choose to allege to the contrary, the plain fact is, that Mr. PIGOTT, like the rest of the corn-law advocates, entertains a deep rooted fear of the League. The earnestness and sin- eerily of his abuse place this beyond a doubt. And well may he dread this great popular Confederacy, for it is destined ere long to seal the fate of Monopoly! . Madrid papers of the 16th have been received. The new Finance Minister is busily engaged in schemes to raise money had for paying the priests and the army. On that day he a long conference with certain ecclesiastical dignitaries, the object of which was to advise on the best means to secure the service of religion, and the maintenance of the clergy. The Minister of War had demanded 2,000,000 reals for certain corps d'armie. The Finance Minister promised compliance, but where is the money to come from ? Reports of an intended in surrection in the Biscayan provinces prevailed at Ma drid, the object of which was to effect a marriage be tween the eldest son of Don CARLOS and the QUEEN. The Three per Cents. were done on the 16th at 26i, at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 19i, at 60 days. On Monday, M. Tams delivered another speech in he Chamber of Deputies, against the policy pursued by he GUIZOT Cabinet, but it was of a very mild character. The ex-Minister evidently has no wish to quarrel with the KING or his Cabinet, and merelyimakes an opposition speech to please his friends. In reviewing the state of affairs Since 1837, he said—" The Whigs were an enter prising race, but their chiefs were not men of a very con ciliatory disposition. In 1837 they urged France to join them in an armed intervention in Spain, but Austria, having been consulted, was of a contrary opinion, and her advice was unfortunately attended to. Hence the origin of the dissolution of the alliance, and the result was, that in Belgium France was deserted by England ; in Italy England openly declared against her, and France was obliged to evacuate Ancona. In Spain the hostility of England was also manifested; and in the East she was found in league with the continental Powers of Europe." M. TITTERS then proceeded to justify the line of policy be had adopted when thus abandoned by England, and contended, that had France "maintained an independent and dignified attitude, and trusted to her immense re sources, the Powers of Europe would never have dared to attack France, and she would not have suffered any humiliation." No Power in Europe dreamt of attacking France. She isolated herself from all, raised a war-cry which alarmed neighbouring States, but did no injury to any nation but France. That war-cry laid the foundation of the new bastiles, which will render the short administration of M. TRIERS immortal. M. GITIZOT briefly replied, and contended successfully that France had made no conces sions to England, and that the relations between the two countries were benevolent and loyal, not only in words but deeds. The report about a change of Ministry turns out to be mere gossip. The Funds continued firm on Monday. BOURSE—PARIS, MONDAY, JAN. 22. First Highest Lowest Last Price. Price. Price. Price.

Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN is no visionary, no wild enthu siast—he is a man of large property, and the Member in Parliament for an Irish county ; the conduct of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Government drove him into the ranks of Repeal—the conduct of that Government will do more injury than years of conciliation can repair, and will drive into opposition to English connection in legis lation, thousands who see in the conduct of that Govern ment, only trickery and injustice. Such a Secretary as Sir J. GRAHAM—such a pro secution as this of O'CoNNELL—conducted by such an Attorney-General, in such a spirit and in such a manner, would sink a stronger vessel than that which Sir R.

BOW-STREET - .--(THIS DAY.) Two strong, hearty-looking men, who gave their names John Scott and John King, the one dressed like a boatman, and the other like an agricultural labourer, were charged, before Mr. Twyford, with begging in Holborn. One of the Mendicity Society's officers stated, that he was passing along Holborn, yesterday, when he saw the defendants standing there. One had a spade in his hand, and upon it was written " We are in great distress, we can get no work, and we want bread." The same prisoners were taken before Mr. Long, about three weeks ago, when they were discharged, and sent to the Mendicity Society, and there they were given five days work. When the officer took them into custody yes terday, the prisoner, Scott, was holding up the spade, and the other prisoner was leaning upon him, as though overcome by exhaustion. . The prisoners said they were utterly destitute, and could get no work. They had lately been engaged on the Paris and Rouen Railway, but the works had been stopped there, and they had come ver to England. Mr. Twyr yap said that a case of systematic begging had been prove( ,and he should punish i t accordingly. The pri soners must be imprisoned in the House of Correction for a month. mutyLEBONE.—(THIS DAY.) Joseph hells, a sailor, who said that he was engaged as cook and baker on board the Token, East India merchantman, was charged with having twice attempted to commit suicide. John Fletcher, 7, Salisbury-street, said that the prisoner slept in his house on Monday night, and on the succeeding morning he got intoxicated at a very early h our , an d th en pu ll ed first a knife out of his pocket and threaten e d to d o some injury opened e h n i e m d se a lf. razor,The weapon was take n f rom him, and he then with which he a tt empted to cut his throat Fortunately they were enabled to Wrest it fr om hi m.

The second attempt was fully proved by witnesses.

CLERKENWELL-(THIS DAY.) An elderly gentleman came before Mr. Combe with a [news paper in his hand, and stated that he wished to have a statement which was made in that Court, and which appeared in the public newspapers, rectified. Mr. Comex said he could not allow the public time to be frittered away in explanations of paragraphs in newspapers. W hat was the precise nature of the gentleman's application. The applicant said his name was Seers, and the same indi vidual against whom the Rev. Mr. Evans, minister of John's Chapel, Bedford-row, complained before his Worship a few days ago. Mr. Evans on that occasion stated, that he (Mr. Seers) was in the habit of disturbing his congregation during the hoursof divine service by standing up and iaddressing them. Now, he wished to rectify this. Mr. Comex sa id the ev. Mr. Evans had certainly applied to him for protection against the disturbance alluded to. He (Mr. Combe) told him to warn the intruder, whoever he might be, of the impropriety of his conduct, and to warn him that if he persevered, he would be taken into custody; and he would now recommend Mr. Seers, if he had committed the disturb ance, not to repeat it. The applicant thanked the Magistrate, and left the Court. UNION HALL.-(THIS DAY.) William Holder, a respectable-looking man, a traveller, in the employment of Mr. Flockton, the extensive turpentine manufacturer, in Bermondsey, was brought before Ay. Cot tingham, charged with embezzling moneys to a considerable amount, the property of his employer. Mr. Flockton stated that the prisoner bad been in his employ for some length of time. He was usually engaged in soliciting orders for goods and collecting money from the customers. Of late, it had been discovered that he had received various sums of money, which it was his duty to have accounted for, but which he had not done. The complainant added, that if the prisoner was remanded, he would bring several cases against him. The prisoner, who said nothing in his defence, was remanded. Thomas Bark er an d A nn B ar k er , his wife, were char ge d on suspicion with committing a robbery under the following cir cumstances:— It appeared the prisoner and his wife lived in Providence.. row, Walworth, and that on Monday night last she alarmed the neighbourhood by saying that her house was entered and robbed while she was out. A neighbour having entered the house found some of the rooms in a state of confusion, and the pre. perty of a Mr. Ellis, a lodger, consisting of clothes and jewel lery, removed. From subsequent ezamination of the premises by the police, it was strongly suspected that the house had not been entered by thieves, no marks of violence nor footmarks being observed, and th ere f ore t h e su spicion rested against th e prisoners, who wer e accord i ngly g i ven in to custody. The prisoners, who declared their innocence of the alleged offence, were remanded. AsTLEfs ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE. — The grand spectacle of the B a t t l e of Waterloo h as b ee n rev i v e d a t t hi s theatre with mor e t h an its ristine splendour ; and, what i s better than all, with Gomer sal as Napoleon. He appears with undiminished powers, and his resemblance to the portraits of the Emperor is as great as ever. He was much applauded throughout by a very crowded house ; and there is no doubt but that this piece will have as great a run on ito revival as it had si hes origuailly produced. We find the following in the Chronicle of this morn ing :—" A most diligent Correspondent of The Sun has induced that journal to fill three of its columns with extracts from Sir Henry Pottinger's correspondence, which prove Sir Henry's extreme distrust of, and se rious complaints of, Noor Mahomed Khan, the chief of the rulers of Sinde, at the date of that correspondence, viz., 1838 and 1839. These extracts are adduced by the writer in order to place Sir Henry in contradiction with his more recent letters, in which he laments the treatment of the present Ameers. Now, the fact is, that Noor Mahomed died in 1841. The present, or late, Ameers were another generation, and had as much to do with the Ameers whom Sir Henry Pottinger spoke of in 1838, as the state and policy and fears of Sinde, at the time when we were preparing an expe dition to Caubul, has to do with the Sinde of 1843, after the English Governor-General had solemnly declared that the Indus was the irrevocable frontier of the empire." We know not what to make of this article. The ob ject of our" diligent:Correspondent" was to show that the whole tenor of Sir Henry Pottinger's correspondence relative to Sinde was at variance with the letter published in the Chronicle ; but, convincing as the extracts are, that the letter is a forgery, they are still surpassed by the remarks of our Contemporary. "Now the fact is," says the writer, " Noor Mahomed died in 1841. The present, or late, Ameers were another generation," &c. How, then, can Sir Henry Pottinger call them his "old friends ?" In 1841 these were all (dead men, the new generation had begun to reign, and he, therefore, could have no personal knowledge of them, or of the affairs of Sinde; for in August of that year he was on the opposite coast of Asia, at the distance of five thousand miles, and was actively engaged in drawing up counter-procla mations to those of Lin, or Keshen, or Elepoo. His opinion respecting events which occurred after his de parture, and when his old friends, the Ameers, were dead, is no authority whatever. But, taking it for granted that all but one of these friends survived what becomes of this deliberate opinion recorded in his dispatches—" It would be better at once to take posses sion of Sinde by force, than to leave it nominally with the Ameers, and yet deal with it as though it were our own ?" This act of taking possession by force is de scribed in the letter as " the most unprincipled and disgraceful that has ever stamped the annals of our em pire in India," while the same authority, in published dispatches, declares it " explicit and dignified," as com pared with the policy pursued under the government of Lord AUCKLAND. The Chronicle may choose either of the horns. MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DA Y CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY. Since our last report a very limited quantity of English wheat has come fresh to hand, and the stands exhibited in consequence a scanty numbei of samples of that grain. Fine qualities moved off steadily, other kinds slowly at late rates. In foreign wheat, both free and in bond, very little was doing, yet we can notice no alteration in figures. The supply of barley and malt being extensive, the sale for those articles was slow at barely previous figures. Oats, beans, peas, and flour were dull at late rates. ARRIVALS. Wheat. Barley. Oats.

ACCIDENT BY THE CARRIAGE OF THE EARL OF ABERDEEN.—On Monday evening an accident of a very serious nature, and which it is feared will terminate fatally, occurred between Slough and Windsor to a man named Heath. a shoemaker, residing at the former place, who was run over by the carriage of the Earl of Aberdeen. It appears that his Lordship was riding post from the Slough terminus to join her Majesty and the Royal circle at dinner at Windsor Castle, when Heath was seen approaching on the footpath, which stands about a foot above the road; being rather tipsy he missed his footing and staggered forward towards the horses. The postilion repeatedly called to him to get out of the way, and in endeavouring to de so he fell back, and before the horses could be stopped the wheels of the carriage passed over both his legs, breaking the right and severely injuring the left. The horses being pulled up, his Lordship alighted, when the poor fellow begged to be conveyed home, which was done, when be said that far what had happened no blame was attri butable to any person but himself. His Lordship immediately dispatched a messenger fur two medical gentlemen, who promptly attended. His Lordship gave directions that every assistance which the case required should be rendered. The sufferer, from his advanced age (upwards of threescore), is no expected to survive. SERIOUS OMNIBUS ACCIDENT.---Yesterday evening, about six o'clock, an accident of an a l arm i ng an d serious nature occurred in the Westminster-road. One of the Atlas om nibuses, which runs between the Elephant and Castle and Pad dington, while on its journey, stopped near the Obelisk at the top of the London-road, for the purpose of taking some luggage on the roof; at that instant the horses; a pair of fine spirited animals, took fright, and the driver was unfortunately thrown from the box into the road, and by the fall received such severe injuries on the head as to make it necessary to convey him in stantly to the nearest surgeon. The uncontrolled horses gal. loped furiously up the Westminster -road; providentially no other personal accident occurred in their career, but on arriving near the Female Orphan Asylum, the animals deviated from their course, and dashed violently across the foot pavement into the shop front of Messrs. White and Co., tailors and drapers, Hercules House, Mount -street, dashing to pieces some valuable panes of plate glass in the window. The only passenger the omnibus contained was a lady, who had fainted during the time the vehicle was on its impetuous course, and was removed in that condition, but without receiving further injury. IRISH Soar. —The Lords of the Treasury having had before them a letter addressed to Sir Robert Peel, by the Irish Soap Company at Cork, representing that by the Excise regulations soap-makers in Ireland are prohibited from export ing soap to England, in packages containing less than 30 lb. weight ; and requesting that the permission now restricted to packages of that size and upwards, may be extended to packages of and above 10 lb. weight ; and their Lordships having also had before them a memorandum prepared by the Chairman of the Board of Excise, from which it appears that no risk would attach to the revenue by compliance with the application, they have authorised the Commissioners of Customs to permit the exportation of soap, from Ireland to England, in packages of 10 lb. weight and upward, and a copy of the order has been fo - warded to the collectors and controllers of the several ports of the tilited 4i130010, for wit informatiou sad govenuawat. 'NE I' AND COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool, yesterday, was very dull. Sales 3,000 bales—viz., 400 bales Egyptian, at 7d to 81,0 ; 100 Pernam, at 64d ; 200 Surat, at 33d ; and the rest Ame rican, at bd to 64d.—Shares were not so good, but still the demand was fair. Eastern Counties were 104 ; Edinburgh and Glasgow, 594; Grand Junction, 235 ; North Midland Half, 463 ; Paris and Lyons, 21. I Is. 6d. The statement made in some quarters, and assumed from authority, that Queen Christina will soon take her depar ture from Paris to Madrid, to use her influence in strengthen ing the Government of her daughter, has caused much conver sation in City circles, more especially among the Spanish merchants and the bondholders. Notwithstanding all that has been said against Queen Christina, a belief is expressed pretty freely that advantages would result from the presence of that individual in the capital of the country of which Donna Isabella is now the reigning Queen. The value of the Bonds has been but little affected by the report in question. The appointment of Mr. Montgomery Martin to the post of Treasurer of Hong-Kong, officially gazetted last night, has given much satisfaction to the mercantile interest. Some commercial letters were received from Malta by the last mail, which are of interest. The transactions in our manu factures had been much increased. It is represented that addi tional facilities were to be given to parties settling in the island, which is well known to possess advantages relative to health, which are much to be desired by individuals who require a mild climate. The Funds are firm this morning. The Government broker purchased 20,0001. to 25,000/. stock, principally in the Three per Cents. of 1726. These constant investments in the Three per Cents., to the exclusion of the Three-and-a-Half per Cents., tends to strengthen the belief that the reduc tion of the interest upon the latter is resolved upon. Consols for Account have been quoted at 971, and for Money at 974. The present price is within a frac tion of the highest that has ruled since business commenced. The purchase in the Three per Cents. of 1726 was at 963, and in Consols at 97 1 %. Bank Stock has been sold again at 194. A slight improvement has taken place in Exchequer Bills, which are now worth 68s. premium. For India Bonds 80s. premium have been paid, for India Stock 2774 ; for the Three and-a•Half per Cents. Reduced 103; and for the Reduced Three per Cents. 971 to 98. A slight improvement has taken place in the Spanish B nd Market this morning, the Three per Cents, being worth 314 31%, and the Five p er Cents. 2 4 . Dutch Stock has im proved to 554 for the Two-and-a-Half per Cents., and to 1(104 for the Five per Cents. Portuguese Converted Bonds have been sold at 463 for Money, and at 473 for Account. Colom bian, ex Venezuelan, have risen to 12; Mexican, from 333 to 344 ; and Brazilian to 78. A considerable amount of business has been transacted in the Railway Share Market to-day, and very generally at ad vanced prices. The London and Birmingham have touched 145 premium, and the South Western, 35g premium. The latest quotations of the other Shares are annexed. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK.

William Adams, a lame young rna: - . 1 using crutches , was brought to Bow- s tr ee t, ve ,t er d ay , charged with wilfully damaging a valuable picture, by striking at it With one of his crutches. Mr. Edward Grant, breeches maker, 23, said he was in the first great room of the National Gallery about three o'clock that day, when he saw soner deliberately lift up hi s cru t c h an d s t r ik e it through the canvas of one of the painti ngs . Th e p r i soner t oo k Aim, an d struck just as if he was kno c ki ng d own a b u ll oc k. There Were three or f o u r p ersons i n t h e room at t h e t i me. the pri- Francis Morris said he was on duty at the Gallery, when Inv was called to take the prisoner into custody for damaging a' picture. He found the prisoner before the picture in ques tion. which was broken to pieces from "the force of the prison er's blow. Mr. G.' Thwaites, secretary to the trustees, and assistant keeper, said he was sent for in consequence of what the Pri" ,oner had done. He found that great damage had been done to a valuable painting, by P. F. Mola, of Jupiter and Leda. The painting was one of the best specimens of an excellent painter, and was worth from 1201. to 150/. It had been MI of Lord Farnborough's collection, and had formerly been In the Orleans collection. The damage was so extensive thatP although the painting might be mended, it would in future be comparatively valueless as a work of art. Mr. Maltby—Did the prisoner say anything? Mr. Grant —He did not say a word. He stood before the picture for some time, without speaking. Then he lifted his crutch and struck at it. Mr. Maltby—What have you to say, prisoner, to the charge of damaging this picture ? Defendant—l have nothing to sap Mr. Alaltby asked Mr. Thwaites if he could account in all way for the prisoner's conduct? Mr. Thwaites—l cannot give the slightest reason for his action. He was, lam told, in at° gallery about three quarters of an hour before this occurred. Our usual practice is to take away sticks and umbrellas; but crutches or sticks used in cases of lameness we allow to be taken into the gallery. Mr. Maltby asked the prisoner to state what he was?-" The prisoner said he was a watch finisher, living at No. 1 3 P Paradi'e-street, Westminster. He repeated he had no motile for what he did. Air. thwaites said he had no reason to suspect that the pri soner's intellects were unsound. At the station•house the pri soner expressed his sorrow for destroying it picture of such great value. Mr. Maltby, after some consideration, finding that his juris• diction only extended to cases where the value was under bl., decided upon remanding the prisoner until the following day, i p order to ascertain what law reached the case. SUMMARY OF NEW AND Vutthr Optitten, " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. The debate in the French Chamber of Deputies on the Address has hitherto been considered favourable to the Ministry, and there is no reason to doubt that the vote will be in their favour. The Funds and Shares on Monday closed as follows :—The Three per Cents. at 82f. 65c. ; the Fives at 124 f. 90c. ; Orleans Railroad Shares, 867 f. 50c. ; Rouen, 850 f. ; Havre, 662 f. 50c. ; Avignon, 690 f. ; Spanish Actives, 301. It was stated on the Bourse that Government would execute all the railroad lines, even to the supply of the rails. The Commerce states that Count Mole and M. Hippo lyte Passy had a long private audience of the King yes terday- at the Tuileries. The Augsburg Gazette mentions a report that Count d'Appony, the Austrian Ambassador in Paris, is about to be appointed to an eminent post in Vienna, and to be replaced in Paris by the Prince de Schwartzenberg. A letter from Rome of the 4th states that several slight shocks of earthquake had just been experienced there, but they had not caused any injury. Heritte, the sailor who was condemned to death lately for the murder of an officer on board the Fleehe brig at Toulon, was executed on the 16th. He displayed much fortitude and contrition. A letter from Stuttgard states that the King of Wm.- temberg had just escaped a great danger. His Majesty had gone out to drive in his carriage and pair as usual, when the horses having run away, and the coachman being unable to pull them in, the whole equipage would have been precipitated into the Neckar, had not a but cher's man, who was near, rushed forward, and, cling ing to the head of one of the horses, forced them to stop. The King made the man a present of one hundred ducats (451) The Government of Baden, says a Frankfort paper, has suppressed all the pamphlets which h ave b een pub lished relative to th e late duels of MM. de Goeler, de Haber, Werefkin, and Sarachaga, and has also pro hibited the journals from again alluding to the subject. A Saint Petersburgh letter of the Bth, in a German journal, mentions a report that the Russian Government has addressed remonstrances to the Porte, relative to the treaty of the Dardanelles. The Russian Government complains that foreign vessels, laden with arms and ammunition, are allowed to pass, contrary to the stipula tions of the treaty. We read in the Journal des Chemins de Fer :—" The Company for carrying on the Lyons Railroad has been definitively constituted. The capital, which is completed, has been raised, one-third in London, a third in Paris, and a third in the localities traversed by the railroad." LAW AND POLICE. In the Court of Bankruptcy, G. D. Clark appeared on his adjourned last examination, having been in business as an agent for patents, and connected with a paper called the Inventor's Advocate. It appeared his debts and liabilities amount to nearly 20,0001., while the assets at present received are scarcely sufficient to pay 3d. or 4d. in the pound. He had been adjourned sine die, in consequence of the unsatisfactory state of his balance sheet, particularly as connected with his affairs in Brussels. The same objection was made ; and, after a long discussion, he was once more remanded sine die, his accounts being as barren as ever of the explanations which the assignees require relative to that business. In the Insolvent Court Charles Neall, alias Hall, formerly of Southampton, and who had been a bankrupt at Epping, and took the benefit of the Act in 1837, was remanded from the vesting order for twelve months, for contracting debts without reasonable expectations of payment, with some of the opposing creditors, and with others in a fraudulent manner. William Horsford was brought up at Marylebone, in custody, charged with having committed a most b ru t a l assault upon Alfr e d, hi s son, by striking him upon the head with a shovel. The particulars, which transpired on the 15th instant, have already appeared, and it will be remembered that the sufferer was, after the infliction of the wounds, conveyed to the University College Hos pital. Evidence was given that he could not yet be con sidered out of danger, and the prisoner was further re manded until the 30th inst. , A powerful Irishman, named Michael Meaney, alias Linkey Meaney, who has been in frequent broils, was charged at the Thames-office, before Mr. Broderip, with committing a brutal assault on a young woman, servant to Mr. Lawson, of the Hoop and Grapes, High-street, Shadwell. The Magistrate, after severely commenting on the cowardly and brutal conduct of the prisoner, fined him Si., and in default of payment, committed him to the House of Correction for two months. COURT-rasuroNADIGE. DICISCELLEOuS. The Duke of Brunswick no , now residing in London, has issued a proclamation, beginning with these words:— " We, Charles, by the grace of God, Sovereign Duke of Brunswick and Luneburg, &c., do hereby declare," &c. It sets forth that he has not abdicated, and never will abdicate, his legitimate rights to the sovereignty of Brunswick. The number of sudden deaths that hare recently oc curred at the east end of the metropolis, is truly appalling. Scarcely a day passes without an occurrence of this kind. Within the space of fifteen days, no less than seventeen cases_ have been brought under the notice of the authorities. From a return made to the visiting justices of the House of Correction, Coldbath-fields, it appears that out of 1,094 prisoners confined in that prison, on the 13th instant, viz., 834 males and 260 females, it was ascer tained that nine males could read and write well, with a knowledge of other languages and arithmetic ; 92 males and 25 females could read and write well, with arith metic ; 258 males and 60 females could read and write a little ; 274 males and 105 females could only read a little ; and 209 males and 70 females could neither read nor write at all. Mr. Lumley, manager of her Majesty's Theatre, is expected in town from Paris, this week, in order to commence his preparations for the ensuing season. We understand that the obsequies of Lady Burdett have been deferred ; in all probability until those of Sir Francis are performed. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(THIS DAY.)

TIM HON. CAPTAIN Rous, M.P.----The answer to inquiries yesterday, at the Hon. and Gallant Me m b er ' s new mansion, in Upper Grosvenor-street, was that h e was go i ng on favourably, at Henham Hall, the seat of his brother, the Earl of Stradbroke, where he had arrived, with Mrs. Rous, from Rendlesham Hall, and he is expected in town on Monday next. Mr. Alexander has been in attendance on the gallant officer, and hopes are still entertained that the eight of the injured eye will be testorek The Duke of Cambridge arrived at Brighton on Mon day evening, where a special train was in readiness to convey his Royal Highness to Shoreham. On alighting from the train at Shoreham his Royal Highness pro ceeded at once in a carriage and four to Arundel, on a visit to the Duke and Duchess of Norfolk. General Sir Edward and Lady - Harriet Paget and family, at the Marquis of Anglesey's, Cowes Castle, and Rear-Admiral Sir William and Lady Montagu, at Earl De Grey's villa, are among the few families of rank still at the Isle of Wight.

The other two witnesses were an inspector of police, named Stewart, and Mr. O'Neil Brown, stipendiary magistrate of King's County. They spoke to details of the management of the meeting at Tullamore. The examination of Mr. Brown, did not elicit any new evidence against the traversers, and at half-past four o'clock the Court adjourned till ten o'clock next morning. One of our Dublin correspondents, who dates his letter Monday, the 22d, makes the following remarks:— " There was yesterday some repose for those imme diately connected with the public proceedings of the Queen's Bench, but private discussions and speculations were more frequent than on the days devoted to work. The trials, it is generally supposed, will not occupy more than another fortnight, the Crown being likely to close on Wednesday, at the furthest. The additional evidence to be brought forward on the part of the Crown, will consist, I under stand of the Repeal cards and other documents, the pub lications of the newspapers, and the numbers who at tended the various meetings. Has the Attorney-General no other evidence, is a question asked by every one ? Why we all knew what has been proved months and months ago, and yet no one ever dreamt of a conspiracy. Then comes the question, will the jury convict on such evi- dence ? lam informed they will, and that there is scarcely a chance for the traversers. The moment the jury was known, the public voice cried conviction. This in England would appear strange—in Ireland it is quite natural. Given, they say, three men of a certain character as judges—twelve Orangemen for a jury, Daniel O'Connell for a defendant, and, work the problem as you will, an acquittal cannot be the result. The tone and manner of some of the judges are bad, the demeanour of the prosecutor is personal and petulant, the character of the judges Orange, to the full extent of that fearful word. One of the jurymen, Mr. Floyd, is an Englishman by birth, though a long time in Ireland. He is highly Conserva- and his business connexion is Conservative ; bu] there is just the shadow of fa hope that, not being an Irish Orangeman, some of the fair play for which Englishmen are distinguished may accompany him into the box. I was speaking this morn ing to a gentleman well acquainted with the state of feeling in Ireland, and on my saying that I hardly thought it possible the Crown would punish, even if there was a conviction, his reply was, No one can say what Government will do, Sir ; they appear to be mad; but I assure you it will take all the influence of O'Con nell and the priests to keep the people quiet.' I believe this is a true representation of the case ; but it is curi ous to have the peace of Ireland preserved by those who may be punished—for a conspiracy to disturb it." We do not meddle with the evidence given upon the present State trials in Ireland. We do not interfere with the question of legality or illegality of the pro ceedings upon which the jury has to decide. We are entirely opposed to a repeal of the union upon princi ple, and upon a conviction that Ireland may be better served, than by severing its legislative connection with this country ; but we feel it strictly within our province to look at the mode in which that evidence has been obtained—to denounce the unfair proceedings by which the jury-box has been packed with men, who may be free from all bias, but whose selection is evidently most corrupt—and to enter our indignant protest against conduct, ;which will do more to effect a repeal of the union, than all the harangues of O'CoNNELL, the acts of the Repeal Association, or of the entire population of Ireland. Can any Englishman call to his memory the proceed ings previous to the selection of the jury, without thanking his stars that he was born in this country and not in Ireland ? Can any Englishman see justice totally denied to Irishmen, in their own country, without blushing for the Legislature which has not conferred upon one part of the British empire, the privi leges enjoyed by the other part, and which ought to be common to all ? Can any Englishman see the tricks, the subtleties, the petty acts of tyranny, to which every officer of the Government has re sorted, previous to, and during the present trials, without feeling a lively sensation of shame for his country, of despisal for his country's rulers, and of pity for the objects of the persecution which those rulers have instituted, and are now carrying on ? We do not believe that the. Englishman exists, who in his heart approves, either the withholding of all from the traversers to make an effectual lefenee, by refusingtht every information a s to t h e c h arge aga i nst packing an odfhe jury the supportevidenbcoex,tointenaed t o , it, make or all th and e nefa e r: e o:s defence of no ultimate use and avail. Conviction . ' conviction ! conviction ! per fas aut nefas ; innocent or guilty, no matter ; conviction, was the end, the aim, and the intent. In pursuance of this foregone conclusion, evidence, such as z) :aortal mar. ever heard, has been sought r; tha character of the public press has been The proceedings in the Irish State trials were resumed on Monday with the examination of three persons in the employment of Mr. Hol brooke, a lithographic printer and engraver, Crow-street. This person was employed to print many of the documents issued by the Repeal Association. Among them the cards of the members and associates, the forms of the awards of arbitrator'. and the deeds of submission to such awards. The latter documents were stamped, and much of the cross-exami nation was directed to eliciting whether this stamp was affixed by the authority of the Association or not. The form of the award only was carried at the meeting of the Association, and the Counsel for the traversers con tended that the stamp being part of the document, it could not be admitted as evidence, unless the whole of it was proved to be authorised by that body as well as part. The Court, however, decided that the document should be admitted as well as the others. • Between one and two o'clock a little incident occurred that not only varied the formality of the proceedings, but exhibited in a striking manner the spirit that ani mates the Attorney-General. The usual Monday meeting of the Repeal Asso ciation was announced to be held at two o'clock. Mr. W. S. O'Brien, it was stated, would also attend that meeting. Between one and two o'clock Mr. O'Connell and his son John rose to leave the Court, for the purpose of proceeding to the Conciliation Hall, when the Attorney- General stated that he had no objection to the traversors remaining in the precincts of the Court, but that he would not permit them to attend the meeting ; if they quitted the Court for that purpose, he should call on the Court to enforce their recognisances. Mr. John O'Connell then wrote a letter from the Court, which was read to the meeting, amidst the utmost ex citement ; nothing could exceed the indignation of the assembly at this manifestation of a petty spirit, and the groans of the meeting "for the Attorney-General" were tremendous. LATE HOURS OF BUSINESS. - - - - The Annual Meeting of the " Metropolitan Drapers' Asso. ciation" was held last evening in Exeter Hall ; J. E. Tennentr E,q., M.P., in the chair. The meeting was fully and respect' ably attended. By the Report of the proceedings of the Asil°' ciation during the past year, it appears that there are in L o ndon 15,000 milliners and dressmakers, 16,796 clothiers and linen drapers' assistants, 12.831 grocers, and 2,&00 chemists—total , 251,100 ; that 211. have been paid for a prize essay on the late hours of business; and that from the gratuitous circulation of tracts the Association have cause to congratulate the public on the successful prosecution of their labours. Perhaps there to no system extant so pernicious, so utterly destructive of social comfort, morals, and intellect as the present system of late hours of business. It appears that young men and women of • tender age are obliged to labour unremittingly in a vitiated atmosphere for seventeen hours a day, arid that frequently on -aturday nights their labours are prolonged to 1 and 2 o'clock the next morning. It behoves. then, the mothers of families for the future to deal only with those who do not employ the young and dependent, to unseasonable hours—to deal only with those who close at a reasonable hour. It is almost impossible to conceive the misery, di.tress of mind and body entailed on thousands by the present system of hours of business adopted by the generality of the trades of the metropolis. Massy of th e linendrapers, in an extensive way of business, now close at seven o'clock ; and from their statements it appears that they have no reason to regret the adoption of this improved plan. It as° appears that the young men employed in these houses of bust' ness, which are closed at seven o'clock in the evening, are, 0 was evidenced in their address to the meeting, a highly intel ligent class of men ; that they do not abuse the time placed their hands. Several gentlemen of acknowledged talent addressed the meeting. Resolutions, condemnatory of the late hour systems were passed, without one dissenting voice, and the meeting separated at a late hour. On Wednesday last, the 17th instant Captain Be' noit de Kolesinski, a Polish refugee, happened to pass along the east end of the Serpentine, when he saw an unfortunate woman struggling in the water. He immediately rushed into the river, and succeeded in saving her from her perilous situal Lion. Upon her being brought to the bank she was conveyed to the receiving -house of the Roy al Humane Society, and place' in a warm bath, after which she recovered from the e ftect o 1 her immersion. The Committee of the Royal Humane bat!: tutien, fully appreciating such gallant conduct, have addresseo` letter to the Literary Association of the Friends of Poland eS: pressive of their thanks to Captain de Kolesinski for his prolnr act of humanity. MEDICAL TREATMENT OF THE POOR.—An inVeS' tigation (at the instance of Mr. Payne, the deputy coroner)" took place before the board of guardians, at St. George-the" Martyr's, Southwark, respecting the manner in which the we; dical officers of the union had treated two out-door easualf e who had died. Mr. Bathurst in the one case, and Mr. Ken' dell in the other, had prescribed without either of them seeing their patient ; and th e l atter h ad allowed, it appeared, 1;:_ assistant, an appr en ti ce on l y 20 years of age, to atten d t • paupers. In the fo rmer case t h e b oard, i n spite of great oP P°' sition from Messrs. Boxer, Gladwell, and others, passed a r e. solution acquitting Mr. Bathurst, who said he bad evaif aiternoon to see some 40 p a ti ents. I n t h e other case a silni 4t, resolution was a gree d to , b ut accompanied by a can tleo against allowing any one who had not passed the College of Surgeons to visit the sick poor. Lady Dashwood King died on Friday, in Uppe r Montague-stre e t, a t an a d vanced age. Her Ladyship wOna". daughter of Theodore H. Broadhead, Esq., and married, 17 °' Sir John Dashwoed King, Bart., by;whom she has left a none rous family. MELANCHOLY . SUlClDE.—Yesterday afternoon, SC about a quarter past three o'clock, a young woman, respectably dressed, was observed to mount the balustrade at the west-side of Waterloo-bridge. For a few moments she excited no attest.. tion, seeming to be enjoying the view which that locality Pre' sents. After a brief interval, however, her intentions beanie fearfuliy alteved : she mounted the top of the parapet, and fora short time stared wildly round her, and in a moment or two fo . , " became quite calm, : . and w ith a most per f ect coo l ness unt ied b ey bonnet and thr ew it deliberately from her into the road ; then tu rn i ng h er face towards the river, ,7 8 thre-.v her hands behi n d h er an d j umpe d f orwar d. Sh e made no turn in h er descent, but went stralg into the wat er ; h er c l ot h es b ecame i nflated by her felt nor did she app ear t o s i n k more than a couple o f feet beyond her own depth, when she immediately rose to the sue' face. It was remarked by several persons, who, as well as the writer of this paragr a ph, were w i tnesses of the transaction, that neither in her spring from the bridge, nor when she rose to the surface of the water, did she utter any manner of ejaculatie n ' t As soon as the circumstance became known, boats were put on from both sides of the bridge, and after some time she W el picked up, but life was quite extinct. The unfortunate wen n!" appeared about 20 or 21 years of age, and apparently in perfect health. A gent l eman who witnessed the transaction rushed forward to prevent, if possible, the fatal ca t a strophe' and was withi n arm s -l engt h o f grasp i ng her clothes when e precipitat e d h erse lf i nto t h e r i ver.
