LA W I. TELLIGENCE. VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURT, Aug. 20• His Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England sat to day in his private room, to hear any pressing applica tions. His Honour disposed of several cases of no general interest, and others were ordered to stand over for further information, or in consequence of some in formality. It is generally understood that his Honour will sit again on Saturday. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Aug. 20. (Berore Mr. Commissioner HOLEuT D.) IN RE GIBBS. The Learned Commissiostztt proceeded to give judg ment on the bankrupt's application for a certificate ; he had carried on business as a scrivener, and was an at torney. The Learned Commissioner said the bankrupt had been for some years in a hopeless state of insoi vency, and had borrowed money at a rate ofinterest nothing could justify. There had been an annual loss from 1823 to 1843, which had continued to ad vance, as from 1837 to 1843 it emounted to 38.0001. At the time of the bankruptcy he ow, d 116,0004 and liabilities, 81,0001. (ogre. The a: sets have only realized about 5,0001, rabi ry little nrwe was tixpected, so that after pay in, ::t of the ex penses, the probability was, that the dividend would be only is. in the pound. The bankrupt bad altogether failed acting the' part of an honest tradesman. In twenty years his payments for discounts amounted to 90,000/ The rate of discount ranged from 25 to 60 per cent., and most of the money was appropriated to his own us... The Learned Commissioner alluded to several cases of fraud,es.4ablished against the bankrupt, particularly in representing that Lord Strathmore's estates were unen cumbered, obtaining bills from General Wyndham to the amount of 15,0001, which he got discounted a few days after at 40 per cent., and appropriated the money to his own use. Reviewing the circumstances, he was bound to refuse the certificate. IN RE CHAMBERS. His HONOUR then proceeded to give judgment in this case. The principal point was whether certain freehold property, amongst which was the Opera House, and pos sessed before the bankruptcy by James Chambers, was to be applied for the benefit of the joint creditors. The Learned Commissioner quoted a variety of cases in sup port of his judgment, that the mode of dealing with the property had been such as to show that it had been treated as partnership property—the bankers books went a considerable way to prove it. It was not inconsistent to declare it joint property under the bankruptcy, although in the House of Lords it had been decreed that it belonged to_James Chambers—in that case it was a question beta een Chambers and Walters, but now it was a question as to the estate. He founded his opinion on the principle that a trust might be created without writing, but proved by subsequent writings or facts. The property would therefore be applied for the joint estate. a Th►e Solicitor to the assignees said, that ultimately there would be a dividend of 15s. to 17s. in the pound. SECONDARIES' COURT, Aug. 20. (Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.) MARSHALL V. STEVENS. This was an action to recover compensation for damage done to premises of which the defendant, who is a brick la3e7r, was lessee. Tt•e defendant allowed judgment to go by default. It. appared hat the defendant had been on the pre mises, which were situate in Church-street, Deptford, i'er nearly seven years, and received notice to quit at 21.1J:itantner last. On the premises being viewed, it eppeared that a .all had been knocked down, another heel siren way en mas.3e from the foundation, and was leaning nine ine.ies out of the perpeedi-ular, and the corners of an outhouse had been carried away, together with the gates, which had been forced off i.he hinges. Ali this damage was attributed to the careless manner in whict the detendunt's man had backed carts against the wall. The damages were estimated at 301. The de fendant had taken a quantity of materials to make good the repairs, but the plaintiff insisted upon pecuniary compensation. Zwithes was eallpd who deposed th wall must he putted down, and_ it would ( to righti, w ior the short all, and 6/. for putting up the corners of the house.

This was held to be grod in law. The jury consulted for a long time, and asked whether they ought not to make an allowance for the decay of the premises. The walls were old, so that 4-I;!rht violence would cause the damage ; but one wall, at least, ought not to he charged for, if it could lean like the "rower of Pia and not fall.—(Laughter.) The SECONDARY said the amount was enti:ely at tLe diicretwn of the jury on the evidence. The jury consulted a considerable time, and then give Verdict for plaintiff, damages 104, rent 7i. CENTRAL CRI:vIINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before the Right Hon. the LORD MAYOR and Mr. Justice WIGHTIAN.) FonGEßY.—Thomas Feat, aged 25, stated to be an eugmeer and cab proprietor, who stood remanded from hat session, was placed at the bar on a charge of forgery. Mr. Bodkin 'was for the prosecution ; Mr. Ballantine for the prisoner. Mr. BODKIN detailed -the case. He would show by competent witnesses that the prisoner had been a groom in the service of Mr. Laitham, who had an account with the banking house of Robarts and Company. He would prove also that as early as the 16th of September, 1843, a bill of exchange for the sum of 1501 had been pre sented to the house of Roberts and Co., purporting to be drawn by a Mr. Smith, and accepted by Mr. ,Laitham. It was inclosed in a note, and the bankers shaving no suspicion, at once discounted it. On 'the 9th of March, 1844, another bill for the sum of 751. was similarly presented, and also discounted, the produce being paid to the person who presented it. :It would not be in the power of the prosecutor to pro fduce these bills, because, before they came to maturity, another bill of 3501 was discounted, the party receiving it withdray.ieg the two previous bills of 1501 and 751 But on the 28th Septebber, 1844, another bill, being the fourth of the series, was presented and discounted in a similar unsuspicious manner, and he (Mr. Bodkin) should show that the notes received on that occasion were -changed at the Bank of England for gold, and a false mame and address, in the handwriting of the prisoner, placed up.,n them. He should also show that a note for 501.--on • of those paid at the bank—had been paid to a ken .f,eiety by the prisoner. Having proved these facts, he thought the evidence would be sufficiently conclusive against the prisoner. Mr. Abraham Roberts, banker, was first called. Mr. Laitham bad been a customer of their's for many years. On the 30th December a bill of exchange, purporting to be accopt , (l by that gentleman, was presented and by his ord-rs tii,coonted. The bill was for 1501., and it was inel. 'sod in a note, signed Richard Laitham, 65, King's road, Bayswater. Mr. George Henry Blackett, clerk at Messrs. Ro bart., had given instructions to cash the bill presented on tin. 30th December, 1844. M.% Robert Morris, cashier. paid, the money, 1501., in December last in three nobs, one No. 11.504, 100/, da,t,cl 9th October ; one No. 60.554 for 40L. d ili-d the and one for 104 numbered 15,466, and ,'a d 0,..16iLer.

Martin Saddler Thornton, clerk in the Bank of Eng land, nad given gold for a 501. note on the 30th Septem ber. 1543. The name on the back was Peat.

Other clerks in the Bank of England proved the ex ehauae of others of the notes received from Messrs. Ro berts, for gold. Mr. M'Donald was again recalled, to prove the hand. writing on the back. The same witnesses were examined to prove the dis counting of the 3501. bill on the 27th July, and the- sig natures affixed to the notes, &c. Mr. Richard Laitham—The prisoner was in his ser vice some ten years ago. He kept an account with Messrs. Robarts at that time, as he did now, but he had never given the prisoner any cheques upon his bankers. He di.t draw upon them for his little expenses. (The witness was handed the bills and letters.) He knew nothing of them, and had given no authority to any one -to write such. Mr. Joseph Smith, Gray's Inn—Had been acquainted la-ith Mr. Laitham for many years. He was not the drawer of the bills, and the handwriting was not his. Fe 1, , cl never drawn a bill upon thp.t gentleman in the c oursg , o f his existence.

He was th en t a k en i nto : custody. The bilk were put into court. This concluded Vlt'i case for the prosecution. Mr. BALLANTINE their addressed the jury for th o de - fence. llte quite al.-rreed with his Learned Friend who opened the case, that this indictor-nt was uf the most• impor tint character, as it aff. - •cted not only the. prisoner at the bar, but the interests of the general public. He (Mr. Bellantine) would not, however, even if he could, exert any ingenuity in the defence ; he would rely upon the simple circumstances of the ease ; and he could rely also with confidence upon - a verdict of acquittal, as soon as the pr. , per bearings of the ease should have been exhibited to - the gentlemen of the glary. Andfirst, he would advert to the two main f e 'wares into which the matter resolved itself—he n it 'ant the handwriting on the bills and notes, amid the priSing of the single 501. note by the prisoner. His la g% riled Friend had, however, adverted at great length • to the many opportunities the prisoner had, while in the service of Mr. Laithman, of studying that gentleman's relations with the banking-house of Roberts and Curtis, and the system of business adopted there. Was it not preposterous that a young man like the prisoner, whose life had been spent between the stable and the cab stand—was it not ridiculous, he asked, to suppose that a young man so situated, should have been conversant, not only with his master's banking habits, bat with the mode of business pursued by the bankers of London ? And who were the witnesses to prove the prisoner's handwriting ? The manager of a loan society and his clerk ; and, without urging motives against the: e gen tlemen, be would ask, how it was possible for them to swear that the whole of these bills, and the names upon the notes, were written by the prisoner, when they (the jury), could, on personal examination of these docu ments, see that it was physically impossible for any one person, no matter how clever that individual might be, to forge so ably so many different hands? Yet these wit nesses had posltively sworn that all was the doing of the prisoner. The second p.,iiit, that of pa,sing the 50/. note, did, he conf. , ssed, in th,- first blush, strike him as alarm• ing, but the jury vi ould dud on examination that all the suspicious appearquees were easily accounted for. The prisoner had, it was very true, passed the note, but in all probability it bed been received in the course of his business, for even the witness from the loan society had proved that his dealings in cabs were very extensive ; and could it now be asked by the prosecutor that they for the defence should prove from whom he had received a note some two years ago ? Was there any corrobora tive eviaence to show that this money had been disho nestly come by ? Had they anything to ,how a wanton or reckless expenditure on the part of the prisoner ? No. Was there a single attempt made to identify the young man with the person who had received the produce of these bills ? No. Although a legion of banking clerks had been called, not one of them could say that the prisoner was that man ; and was it not therefore a fair presumption that the prisoner was inno cent of the charges in the indictment ? He felt satisfied that the prisoner's cause was safe in the hands of the jury, and he should not, therefore, trouble them with further observations. Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN then summed up. The jury then, after half an hour's consultation, re turned a verdict of Guilty. The Learned JUDGE, after a brief address, sentenced the prisoner to transportation for life. THE CALENDAR.—The second edition of the calen dar, brought into Court this morning, exhibits an addi tion of 27 prisoners, who may be classed as follows :- 1 for bigamy, 1 for burglary, 2 for uttering false coin, 5 for cutting and wounding, 2 for embezzlement, 2 for forgery, 10 for larceny, 2 for manslaughter, and 2 for misdemeanour. NEW COUR7 No case of the slightest interest came before the Learned Common Sergeant in the course of yesterday. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Liverpool, Aug. 18. (Before Mr. Justice CRESSWELL and a Special Jury.) IMPORTANT LIFE INSURANCE CASE.—SCHWABE, ADMINIS' 'MATRIX V. CLIFT. This was an action of assumpsit, brought to recover a sum of 9991., alleged to he due to the plaintiff as adminis tratrix of the late Mr. Louis Schwabe, of Manchester, the particulars of whose death were detailed in 'the public prima a few months since, Mr. Sehwabe's life had been insured in the Argus Office. At his death that office refused to pay the insurance money, upon the gr )und now pleased—viz., that the party insured had terminated his own life by suicide. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL first addressed the jury, and commenced by observing that, although he appeared there on the part of the defendants, it would be for him to state the case in the first instance, as the burden of proof lay on his side. The death of the person insured was not denied, and it was admitted that a policy had been granted; but the company, by their plea, alleged that the deceased had committed suicide ; therefore they con tended that they were not bound to pay the money, there being in the policy this condition—that the contract was to become void in case the person whose lite was insured Abould commit suicide, or die by duelling, or by the hand of justice. Now, what had occurred in this case would show that the policy was rendered void accord ing to the clause which contained that condition, the fact being that the deceased had taken poison for the purpose of putting an end to his life, and that he had died in consequence within a few hours after. He (the Solicitor-General) was aware that it was said that Mr. Schwabe was not of sound mind at the time when he did the act, and that was commonly said in these unfortu nate cases. But if it should be proved that he was not of sound mind, there would yet be an important ques tion of law to he determined, for it would still remain to be decided, further, whether the life-office ought, on account of that circumstance, to lose the benefit of the condition ; and if a doubt could now exist as to this point in the law of England, it was high time that such a point should be settled. He apprehended that the judgment which had. been pronounced in a case tried before Mr. Justice Erskine, in the year 1841, would apply to the one now before them. In the case to which he referred, that of Borradaile v. Hunter, a clergyman, had effected a policy of insurance of a like nature ; and in that instrument it was conditioned, that if the party should " die by his own hands," the policy should be void. Mr. Borradaile afterwards threw himself over Vauxhall bridge. The policy was sued on. The defendant pleaded that the insured died by his own hands." And then at the trial, it was contended by the plaintiff, that if the de ceased were not in a state of mind to render him morally responsible, the policy was not made void by the act of self-destruction. The jury, in a special verdict, found that Mr. Borradaile voluntarily threw himself over the bridge, knowing that he should thereby destroy hi s lif e , but that at the time of committing the act he was not capable of distinguishing right from wrong. The- Judges of the Common Pleas held that the case came within the meaning of the clause, and that the policy was, therefore, void. Mr. Justice Erskine, Mr. Justice Mettle, and Mr. Justice Coltman, denied that this was " dying by his own hand," according to the meaning of the policy. The Lord Chief Justice of that Court, for whom every one must feel respect, thought that the per son so dying must be felo de se to avoid the policy, and upon the foundatioa of that opinion, the plaintiff, it was supposed, now sought to maintain the present action. The decision in the Common Pleas was, no doubt, a sound decision. But the jury could have nothing to do with the expediency of the law ; and if the law were that a jury, from feelings of compassion or sympathy for a dis tressed family, might say that a party was not in a sound state of mind, and could so fix an insurance -office, the sooner a law of that kind was altered the better. It would at once be to encourage gross fraud upon the office insuring, and the offence of self-destruction in the person insured. But they could have nothing to do with the question of expediency. They must look to the words of the policy, and the decision must be ac cording to the intention of the parties contracting, and that intention again to be gathered according to a well known rule of law, from the ordinary sense of the words employed in the contract. What, continued the Learned Counsel, was the meaning of a man committing " sui cide ?" If a man was in such a state of consciousness that he knew death would be the consequence of his act, that was enough. He (the Solicitor-General) did not niean to say that it would be sufficient if the person acted by mere accident, as if he were to shoot himself uninteetionally But if they were to hear of a man having volantarily shot himself, or taking poison, how would they describe it but by saying that he had com mitted " suicide ?" here the deceased took sulphuric acid, and died a few days Afterwards in consequence. It was then the plain meaning of the words, according to t;lain natural interpretation, to call this a case of suicide ;" and there must have been something else in the language of the policy to show that the words in ques tion should be accepted in any different sense. Were it not so, it must happen, by and by, that no similar clause of exemption in a policy could be effective, for it might ht, agreed that, as no man destroying his lire can be in hiA right mind, no such case of destruction can be one of suicide. The Learned Gentleman then proceeded to state the facts attending the death of the deceased, which were aft , rwardi spoken to in detail by the witnesses called. The witnesses were Mr. John Chapel, who had been in the employ of the deceased from 1839 ; Thos. White, a cab-driver ; another man, who had gone to Mr. Schwabe ; and Mr. Ransom, surgeon, of Manchester, the medical attendant of Mr. Schwabe. From their evidence it appeared that the deceased, whose residence was at Plimptoo•grove, ,Manchester, was a native of Germany, and a silk manufacturer, carrying on his business, which was in a large way, at some distance from his dwelling-house. He was a man who paid much atten tion to his Faisiness, and had greatly excited his mind, was of an imaginative turn, in the inveuting of new patterns. There had been five policies effected on his We, but so long ago as 1836. In 1843 he was ob served to be very much excited, and this being observed by his medical attendant, that gentleman remonstrated with him on his too close application to business, and urged his going to the sea coast for relaxation. He went, and was partially benefited. But at one period of 1843 it was deemed necessary to place him under some personal restraint, and a man was placed in his house to take care of him. He was very kind and at tentive towards his family, and on one occasion, during the illness of his daughter, had himself watched over her night and day, exhibiting, as stated by Mr. Ransom, extraordinary coolness, apparently from the effort which he made for the sake of his child. On Tuesday, the 7th of January last, being at his place of business in Manchester, he spoke with Mr. Chapel about removing some acids, which were employed in the manufacture there carried on. The next day the witness observed him looking at some of the acids in a manuer which attracted his attention. On the Friday following, the 18th, Mr. Sch wahe came to Mr. Chapel, and asked for some sulphuric acid, of which about half a wine glass full was given him. This was put in a phial, which the deceived put in his pocket. At this time Mr. Chapel remarked something peculiar in his look. He seemed wild. But the witness did not apprehend his intention, as he was in the habit of making experiments, though he was not considered to be intimately acquainted with the use of those prepara tions. It would seem that he must have taken the phial finally, when asked if it was sulphuric acid, he nodded his head, as if to say yes. He lingered until the next morning, and then died. Mr. liztowLEs (for the plaintiff) submitted that there appeared, in the first place, to be some doubt upon the evidence offered as to whether the poisoning were really by accident or by design. But it was beyond - all doubt, on the defendant's own showing, that the deceased was of unsound mind when the acid was swallowed. The Learned Counsel said he quite agreed with the Solicitor- General that this was not a case in which they, the jury, should be governed by their sympathy ; but it was re markable that his Learned Friend had relied upon a case, that of Borradaile v. Hunter, which would be found quite against him. In that case the words relied on were " dying by his own hand;" but where the words, as in the present case, were "committing suicide," the latter phrase must be taken to import a felonious act. Here the deceased was both morally and legally irre sponsible • and if he had killed anoth er p erson; h e would, under the circumstances, have been held irre sponsible from the existing state of his mind. In the case quoted Mr. Justice Erskine had expressly spoken of those policies in which occurred the phrase " shall commit suicide "—the phrase now occurring in the present case, and had considered that phrase, properly understood, and judicially construed, to import a criminal act ; and jurors had, accordingly, so found. Not that the deceased did not precipitate his own destruction, but that, being in the state of mind clearly proved already, he was incapable of committing an act of crime. The jury must excuse him (Mr. Knowles) if he spoke technically, but he must contend further that the term " commit" did df itself alone imply the doing of something criminally. It had been proved that so long ago as 1842 the mind of deceased was in a very disturbed state, and that his father had died under circumstances calculated to occasion additional excite- ment to him, and if there were enough to convince the jury that he had taken poison, in order to cause his own death, still no one could for a moment doubt that he was in such a state of mind at the time as would have pre vented him being amenable to the law if he had com mitted the act against the life of another. After the evi dence they (the jury) had heard it would be needless to call more witnesses to prove the fact that Mr. Schwabe was insane ; and as to what had been said respecting the liabilities of insurance -offices, if the gentlemen insuring found that their meaning, in their words, had been wrongly understood, only let them, for the future, make an alteration in the form of their policies. His LORDSHIP, after recapitulating the facts, as stated in the evidence, told the jury that it was here alleged, on the part of the defendant, that the policy was void, because the deceased had " committed suicide. " To make that out they must find—first, that Mr. Schwabe died by his own voluntary act ; and, secondly, that at the time he did the act, he could tell right from wrong, so as to be a responsible moral agent, and to be capable of appreciating the quality . of his action. His Lordship observed that he stated this distinctly ,antici pating that his judgment might be disputed. He should feel himself ruled by the judgment of the courts above, but, in the case quoted, two of the Learned Judges out of the four had considered the case of " suicide," though the two others had not ; in that case the words, " dying by his own act," were of different meaning from those here discussed, and no doubt if the language in that case had been the same as in this; the decision would have been in favour of the plaintiff. The Lord Chief Justice had said, in " Borradaile v. Hunter," that suicide" must mean a " felonious suicide." His own opini , n was, that the party must have been a moral agent at the time, .in order to make the policy void. It had been argued, that a decision in the plaintiff's favour would give encouragement to suicide, if provision could in this way 13- insured to a family ; but no other evidence at all had been given as to the circumstances of Mr. Sehwabe, nor as to whether the family would be bene fited by a verdict for the plaintiff Upon his Lordship's concluding his direction .to the jury, The 'SOLICITOR-GENERAL rose and tendered his Lord ship a bill of exceptions. The Learned JUDGE perused it, and then said that the words which it attributed to him were not correct. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL then said that he was de sirous of having them correctly put down, and would endeavour to quote what his Lordship had said with exactness. His LORDSHIP then said that his ruling was that the jury, to find for the defendant, must find that the de ceased was in a state of mind to be capable of distingui4l - right from wrong. At the same time, although the burden of proof was upon the defendant, as to the fact of the party having voluntarily taken away his own life. the jury must assume that the deceased was a capable mural agent, unless the plaintiff proved the contrary. The jury almost immediately returned a verdict for the plaintiff for the full amount claimed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CLERKENWELL. Mr. William Coleman Balls was brought up for final examination at this Court, charged with forgeries whereby the Finsbury Savings' Bank was defrauded of the sum of 521. Mr. Duncombe conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Humphries defended the prisoner. The prisoner has been, for a considerable time, secre tary to one of those societies of poor mechanics and labourers established for the benevolent purpose of aiding one another when in sickness or adversity. This society, which was termed the United Brothers' Pro vident Society, and which held its meetings at the City of London, Sydney-street, City-road, has been for a long time in existence, and in consequence of the expenses caused by allowance to sick members, its funds had dwindled down to 52L, which was the whole of their stock. On the 2d of January, 1844, the prisoner, in company with Mr. Randell, the steward, deposited the 52/. in the Finsbury Savings' Bank. The entry was duly made in the books kept in the bank, and also in the savings' bank book which depositors retain. When the parties came out of the bank, after the lodgment, a question arose as to who was to keep the book ; the prisoner said he would, and Mr. Randell positively swears that he gave it to him,`and that he saw no more of it. According to the rules of the society the book should have been placed in the society's box immediately after its being used. Some time after this transaction it was suggested by several of the members, that the book should be brought to the bank, for the purpose of having the interest added to the principal, so that com pound interest might accrue. But the prisoner opposed this, and hence no search was made for "the book until about the end of last June, when the box being opened, the loss of it was discovered. Suspicion was raised, inquiries were made at the bank, when the poor members found, to their surprise and grief, that all their hard earnings had been abstracted, and that they were pennyless. The officers of the bank proved that the money was paid over to two persons, describing themselves as the officers of the society, in two different sums of 30L and 22/., but they were unable to identify the prisoner as one of the persons. The prisoner said he gave the bank • book to Randell, and referred to a minute in the society's book to that effect. The minute was certainly on the face of the book ; but the magistrate, on examinirg the leaf on which it was written, was of opinion thai - it was fastened in - with gum. One of the persons drawing the money gave the name of J. Jones, Secretary," and these words were sworn to be in the prisoner's handwriting. The prisoner was fully committed for trial. John Pearson, a smart, active-looking young man, well dressed, was charged with being concerned in rob• bing Mr. Jeffries, of the Prince of Wales, Sudeley-street, Islington, of 641. in gold and silver money. . d)c w r a fai f b s a lo o ,o l l rve k n u hd e e t ia d re t If h i ao n gn e rl t into es another h nv o e . middle oaptf e sih. a nea r s o tri efeoor smartly-dressedufvtarhe ndp e o d.o f d r 3 e rne l an ' a a i fwt n d el c e iswe e . c momp e ar ai npOnlnte%ularryv, walked e, - t las d e l ,s r e ka, t a t h d s e ane r t i ddl , both c t mu ah ail n a e t; d ne. bar. One of them immediately said that he wished to see the newspap-r, whereupon Mrs. Pearson, -the land lady, said a gentleman was reading it in the parlour, and that they might ask him for it. They declined, saying they did not like to ask, but if the lan , llady would have the kindness to do so they would feel obliged. The landlady went in as requested, but she had hardly got into the parlour, when the door was closed, and when she attempted to get out it was held fast on the outside. After a short time the grasp was relaxed, and incensed at having been so treated, she upbraided the prisoners with their misconduct. When she came out they were near the door, and in reply to her accusation, laughed, and without waiting to look at the newspaper, walked out. They had scarcely left the place, when the lardiady missed from the shelf behind the bar the tin box which stood there. She immediately went to the door and raised the cry of stop thief. The prisoner and his companion, who had the cash-box under his arm, were hotly pursued by a mob, and the man with the cash baffled his pursuers, but the prisoner ran into a fruit-shop near Sadler's Wells Theatre, and attempted to hide himself behind the counter, but was soon after apprehended.—Remanded. QUEEN-SQUARE. Mr. T. Couchman, the proprietor of the Windspr Castle, Vauxhall-bridge-road, was charged on a sum mons with assaulting his potman, John Webber. It appeared from complainant's statement, that on the evening of Monday week Mrs. Couchman desired him to take some beer to a customer, when he refused to do so, alleging that it was not on his round, and that he could not be in two places at once. His mistress ob served, that if he would not take it she must get some one else who would, when he replied that he would take out no more beer for her at all, and positively refused to go with the supper beer to those customers whom he had been in the habit of supplying. Mrs. Couchman thenealled her husband, who immediately collared and struck him, insisting on his taking the beer or leaving the house. Complainant had occasion t 9 go into the top-room, when his master followed him, dragged him Out, and struck him repeatedly, and attempted to throw him out of the house. In answer to an inquiry from the magistrate, com plainant admitted that he was under the influence of liquor at the time, but considered that he was sober enough to do his work. Mr. Couchman put some questions to complainant, by which it was clearly shown that he had a very excellent situation, and was treated with liberality and kindness, and that it was his duty to carry out beer and make himself generally useful. Two coalheavers were called as witnesses to prove the assault. into a room at the works shortly after having received the contents, and there swallowed the acid, the empty bottle being discovered, with the cork, some stains on the floor, and a portion of the acid apparently vomited up after being drunk off. The cabman proved that he was beckoned to by de ceased in Oxford -street. Manchester, took deceased up, and observed that be held a handkerchief to his mouth. On arriving at his residence, whither he desired to be conveyed, he said something to Mrs. Schwabe, in which he was u.iderswod to say that he had taken poison ; and on Mr. Ransom being called in, though the deceased was unable to articulate, ha gave that gentleman to understand that he had taken sulphuric acid. Mr. Ransom enumerated other acids, appealing to him as a man of honour to say if he had swallowed any of the acids mentioned. He shouk his head several times, but 1 Mr. Couchman's answer to the case was, that com plainant refused to take the supper beer to customers who were waiting for it, and made use of a filthy ex pression to his mistress. Hearing a noise, he (Mr. Couchman) came out of the parlour, and upon defendant, who was drunk, making use of blackguard and insulting language to him, and repeating his refusal to supply the customers, he desired him to leave the house, which complainant positively refused to do, and immediately THE S UN, LONDON, THURSDAY MORN ENG, AUGUST 1845. seized him (defendant) by the collar, and swore he would stick to him like a leech. He repeatedly told complainant to let go, and on his refusal to do so, which was accompanied by bad language, he certainly struck him, and endeavoured to put him out. Witnesses having been called in support of the defence, Mr. BOND expressed his opinion that a drunken servant was of very little service to a master, and con sidering that the defendant was perfectly justified, in consequence of the misconduct of the complainant, in putting him out of the house, would not inflict any penalty on the master, but as he had used more violence than was absolutely necessary to eject him, called upon the defendant to pay ...two shillings, the costs of the summons. Elizabeez Fletcher, a powerful woman, was charged with assaulting William Hawes, a Norwich constable, in the execution of his duty. Complainant, who was in search of a man named An derson, for felony, was standing opposite defendant's house, in Causton-street, Westminster, on Saturday even ing, when she cams o u t an d wante d to k now w h at he and two other constables, who accompanied him, were watching her house fur, and said it they wanted Ander sin, they must go arid find him. Complainant replied, he should go and find him in her house, and, having en tered it, showed her a warrant for his apprehension, and took a candle in order to go up stairs. Defendant im mediately blew out the light, and on the officers attempt ing to go up stairs, obstructed their progress. On ar• riving at a room on the first floor she stood with her back to the door, and swore that they should not go in there. and the officers found it necessary to hold her. She, however, broke away from them, and struck the com plainant a desperate blow in the eye. The door of the room was found open, and Anderson's wife was found there ; but it was supposed, in consequence of the, delay they had met with, that he had escaped by the window. Defendant denied the assault, and alleged that she had been roughly used by the officers, who did not show any authority, as she declared, for entering her house. It having been stated that her husband was a very quiet, hard-working, respectable man, Mr. BOND, in consideration that the penalty would fall upon her husband, after admonishing her in very strong terms, fined her 31., orin default, six weeks' imprisonment. LAAIBE7'H. George Hyde, an expert and notorious thief, was charged with being 'concerned with two others in the commission of a daring robbery. Police-constable 94 L deposed that he had been employed on the preceding night to watch the public-house of Mr. Richardson, at the corner of Marshal-street, London-road, the front of which is at present down ; and at about one o'clock on that morning, he heard a kind of signal, which caused him to be on the look out. Immediately after he saw a respectably-dressed man come down Marshal-street, fol lowed by the prisoner and two others, and when the former got close to Mr. Richardson's the three latter came up with him, and two of them held his hands while the prisoner rifled his pockets. He (witness) at this time was at the first floor window of an opposite house, and observing what he had described, hastened down to secure the parties, who, by th a t ti me , h a d l e f t the gentleman, and took different directions along the London-road. He, however, kept the prisoner in view until he ran up a turning, through which there was no thoroughfare, and ultimately secured him. Before doing so, however, the prisoner managed to strip off M coat, and force it over the doors of the water-closets in the court. Mr. HENRY inquired if the persOn who had been robbed was in attendance, and the constable replied that he was not, nor did he know where to find him, as he had gi,ne away while he (the policeman) had been secur ing the prisoner. The witness added that the prisoner had been frequently in custody on various charges, and had been tried and summarily convicted. Mr. HENRY said that, in order to give the Constable time to find out the person robbed, he should remand the prisoner for a week. • Mr. John Day, a parson of respectable appearance, attended to meet a charge preferred against him by the authorities of the parish of Camberwell, of having de serted his wife and two children, and leaving them chargeable to the parish. From the .statement of Mrs. Day, an exceAingly good-lookine• female, who held a fine infant in her arms, it appeared that the parties had been married as long back as November, 1833, but had separated shortly after. They were however, as she swore. in the habit of m •et ing occasionally, and the consequence was that she had given birth to two children, one on the sth of September, 1840, and the other on the 19th of February last. In her crtrie examination by an attorney's clerk, who attended on the part of the defendant, she said she had been in the habit of ineetinz her husband at the Cross Keys, in Wood-street, Cheapside, by his invitation, in the month of October last, and produced a note which had been written, and upon the receipt of which she said she went to meet him. She positively denied having lived with any person of the name of Pullin, or going by that name, since she had been separated from her hus band. 'She also denied in the most positive terms having been in custody at Union Hall Police-court, or having lodged in Cornwall-road, Waterloo-road. The witness was then asked if she knew two respec table females pointed out to her in the body of the court, and after some time said she was acquainted with one of them, Mrs. M'Laren, but the other she declared to be a perfect stranger to her. The husband, at this period of the inquiry, requested to be shown the note. upon the receipt of which, as she stated, his wife had gone to meet him at the Cross Keys. It was accordingly handed to him, and he at once de clared the date of the year was a forgery, for he had never written it. The note was in consequence closely examined, and it was quite apparent, from a close inspection, that when it had been written the year had been left out, and in order to suit the wife's purpose, and the note itself being one breathing affection for her, the 1844 was added to the date. In addition to this awkward discovery, the two fe males above alluded to were called and examined. The first, Mrs. Lines, of 46, Cornwall-road, deposed, that on the 9th of August, 1840, Mrs. Day engaged a lodging at her house for herself and her husband, and at that time, and while she lived at her house, she went by the name of Pullin. . Mrs. Day here, and in the most impudent manner, told the witness she was quite mistaken, for that she had never lived at her house. The witness, in continuance, declared she was per fectly positive on the subj ect , and added, that Mrs. Day had been taken from her house in the custody of a po liceman, and had been examined at Union hall. Mrs. M'Laren, the second witness, said she was per fectly well acquainted with Mrs. Day, from her sister being married to a near relation of hers. Witness re collected being sent for to go to Union hall Police court, to see Mrs. Day, but upon asking for her in that name, she was told there was no such person locked up there. She, however, gave a description of her person, and found she gave the name of I' ullin, and in which name she saw her. Mr. HENRY said he was perfectly satisfied, and dis missed the complaint. The attorney's clerk, who attended for the defendant, said that Mr. Day was most respectably connected, and but for the grossly profligate conduct of his wife, should have provided her with necessaries to keep her from the parish. Mr. HENRY remarked that the case was one of gross profligacy, and the attempt to make the husband liable to the support of his wife and her offspring, was followed up by the most shameless perjury he had ever heard on the part - of the wife, and takina: it altogether, he (Mr. Henry) thought it was a case in which the parish should prosecute fir p-rjury, The clerk to the guardians replied that there were no funds in the parish to defray the expenses of such a prosecution. Mr. HENRY observed that this was the answer he in variably received in cases: where he recommended a prosecution, and %%here a prosecution should take plane. In his opinion, in a case like the present, the expenses of a prosecution should be alhaved in the passing of the accounts.—Here the matter dropped. John Fitzye , .alrl was summoned by the Animals' Friend Society, of 18, Strand, for wilfully shooting a cat, the property of Mrs. Fitzgerald. }White (the prisoner) had f o ll owe d h er on W e d nes d ay afternoon, subsequently to the funeral, from Wapping, whence they had taken a boat, and crossed to Rother hithe. Witness had known the prisoner about four years, but had not frequently met him of late. Saw the prisoner on Sunday last at Wapping, when he told wit ness:that he parted with his wife shortly before nine o'clock on Wednesday night, and did not see her after wards. Witness bad since been informed by the land lady of the Royal Oak, Rotherhithe, that the deceased (she supposed) left th e h ouse a ft er drinking a glass of gin, :and was immediately followed by the prisoner. The prisoner lives in Gravel lane, Wapping. The pri soner told him that he parted with Mrs. Tyrrell at the Royal Oak door, and returned home. He a ft erwar d s said he went and slept in Jerry Styles's water-closet, be tween nine and eleven o'clock—this is near the Tunnel. Mr. Ffrench (the chief clerk) said they had no busi ness near the Surrey Canal; it was not the prisoner's way home, nor that of the deceased's. Tyrrell said he could bring persons forward, who saw them at ten minutes to nine leave the Royal Oak, and traced them to Clark's-orchard, where they had gin to gether. They had gin also al the Barley Mow. A little girl was called, who stated that they were at Clark's-orchard at twenty minutes past ten. She fetched three half-quarterns of gin, for the prisoner to treat her mother and a Mrs. Griffiths. She was sent again at half-past eleven o'clock, but the public-house was closed. Mr. JEREMY remarked to the prisoner, that he had been seen before nine o'clock, and upwards of an hour afterwards, at Clark's-orchard, in company of deceased. The prisoner said he would endeavour to explain all the circumstances, if the magistrate would hear him. A friend, named John Moore, from the New -cut, had been with him in the forenoon. After leaving Moore he met John Hogan ,and his wife, and two other women, at Execution-dock Stairs. Hogan said he had buried his son that day, and prisoner expressed sorrow at the event. Mrs. Tyrrell (the deceased) was close by at the time, and asked him how he did. Hogan said, "Come in here and we will have some gin." They went into the Swan, and before they parted they called for and drank three pints of gin amongst them all, men and women. He was talking to the deceased, and she laid hold of his arm, saying she was tipsy, and wished prisoner to see her over the water in a boat. He said he would do so; it would cost him twopence, but that was no object. Four of them got into a boat, himself and deceased, another man and woman, and the Waterman then got in, and pulled over to Rotherhithe. The man and woman were strangers, taking the ferry. They landed at eight o'clock. He asked the strangers to drink with them before parting. They then went into the Royal Oak, and called for half-a-pint of gin, and he (prisoner) proposed to pay half the charge, leaving the other man to pay the rest. Funning was the man who called for half-a-pint of gin, and pulled out &urpence, say ing, " Fourpence more from you will pay for the gin," Prisoner swore he would not pay after being invited ; it was not his country fashion. Mrs'. Tyrrell (the deceased) put her hand in her pocket, and laid down sixpence towards it ; they drank each a glass, but Fen cing appeared to sip only, and then threw the glass and contents into the street. The landlord demanded pay ment of Fenning for the glass. He (prisoner) and the deceased then left the house. On getting outside the Royal Oak, Mrs. Tyrrell said she - must make haste home, as her infant would miss her. He told her to go towards Millpond-bridge. She replied, "No, Deptford was her way home." He then went on to show her the way to Deptford. She walked down, and sheered up again, and from side to side. He then led her on again and left her on her way home. He then turned to go to Wapping, but instead of doing so, he went to Jerry Styles's water-closet, near the Tunnel, and fell asleep. Did not see Styles's family. After sleeping nearly an hour he was awoke by the noise of some people. He then turned out, and went towards home. The road he took was one way 200 yards, and the other 600 yards, out of the direct course home. Deceased went on the high road towards Deptford. . The prisoner accounted for the scratches on his face by saying that he had snatched at a tobacco-box in a friend's hand, and in resisting him the man's coat had rubbed his cheek and nose. This happened on Tuesday. Tyrrell said that he could bring witnesses to swear that he had no scratch or mark on Wednesday evening. Mr. JEREMY said he should remand the prisoner for a week, in order that ample time should be afforded to collect further evidence. WOOL WICH. Thomas and Sarah Barnes, alias Banks, and Wm. and Elizabeth Alfred, were charged with committing the following savage assault : The prisoners have been in custody for a period of nearly five weeks, having been again and again remanded in consequence of the inability of the injured parties to attend and give evidence. The facts of the case are shortly these : —On the 13th July the prisoners, who are married persons, were lodg ing at the house of a man named Driscoll, who keeps a low lodging-house in Woolwich. On that day a quarrel arose between them and Driscoll, which terminated in the latter and a man named Pickett, a sawyer, receiving some very serious injuries. During the affray the female prisoner, Sarah Barnes, seized an iron bar, used as a poker, and struck Pickett a violent blow on the leg, fracturing the bone of the leg, and rendering him a cripple for life. While he lay on the ground she thrust her fingers into his mouth, and with her nails severely lacerated the roof, causing the blood to flow in torrents. The female prisoner Alfred also attacked Driscoll, knocked him down, and kicked him in the eye, causing active inflammation, which resulted in irritas, and de stroyed the optic nerve and iris, ca us i ng total blindness of the organ. Such were the facts of the case, as detailed by various witnesses, and confirmed by Mr. Penny, the surgeon who attended the injured parties. The prisoners were committed for trial at the present sessions of the Central Criminal Court, and Mr. Grove ordered a pair of crutches, to be paid for out of the poor box, to be made for the injured man Pickett. WANDS WORTH. _ _ John Goody and Rachel Langton were charged with stealing a bushel of apples, and the former prisoner was also charged with a committing a murderous assault upon a man named Thomas Knowles. It appeared from the evidence, that Knowles is head gardener to Mr. Alexander Mitchelson, an eccentric, but enormously rich, market gardener, residing at Norbiton common, near Kingston. On the previous evening, about a quarter-past eight o'clock, he saw three men gathering apples in an inclosed orchard, belonging to his master. He collared one of the men, who is not in custody, and was immediately struck by him. The other men ran into an adjoining field. The witness had a des perate struggle with the man he had collared, when the latter called out for assistance, and the prisoner Goody came back into the field. He struck witness a tremen dous blow, which knocked him down, and while pros trate he kicked him severely. All the men got clear away, but in the course of- the night police-constable 278 V succeeded in apprehending the prisoner at a beer s hop. HENRY remarked, that people were not allowed to take the law into their hands entirely ; if they do, they must run the consequences. The defendant was ordered to pay 10s. the value of the cat, and 2s. summons. The MAGISTRATE convicted Goody in a penalty of 505., or three weeks' imprisonment and hard labour, and Langton in a penalty of 305., or fourteen days in default. THAMES. Michael Carroll, a felt-maker, aged 26, Matthew Keenans. 68, Daniel Keenans, his son, 39, Patrick Foley, 19, and Martin Banim, 28, who had been remanded for a week on a charge of manslaughter, were brought be fore Mr. Broderip for final examination. Carroll was charged with causing the death of James Bristow, a stonemason, and his countrymen with aiding and abet ting him in the commission of the offence. 'The evidence has been already published. The de ceased and others were wantonly attacked in Bow, Mid diesex, on the night of Saturday, the 9th inst., and the deceased, who had given no provocation whatever, was struck on the head with a poker, by the prisoner Car roll, and died of the wounds he received a few hours afterwards. Cockerell. a poli,T,-constable, No. 260 K, stated that since the last examination a Coroner's inquest had been hell on the body ef the deceased, and a verdict of man slaughter was reiurnest against Carroll, but the other prisoners were not affected by the verdict. Mr. BRODERIP said, that on a former occasion there wAs so much doubt whether the two Keenaus, Foley, and Brreim were actually aiding and abetting Carroll in the death of the unfortunate man, that he had offered to accept of bail for them. As the verdict of the jury had not implicated them he should now discharge them, and the ease against Carroll would be proceeded with. The four prisoners having left the dock, Inspector Watts, who conducted the: case, said there was only one more witness to- be examined. SOUTHWARK. Benjamin Harries was charged with stealing a quan tity of jewellery and other articles, value St, the pro perty of Thomas Furniss. The prosecutor stated that be kept a small jeweller's shop in Bermondsey, and that on Tuesday night week he went out, in company with his wife, having previously closed his shop, which adjoins a stairs leading to the upper part of the house, occupied by lodgers, and to which ingress is aff irded by a hall door. On his return he found that the shop had been entered, and that some jewellery and other articles, consisting of watch move ments, rings, an d mus i ca l boxes, had boen stolen. He found, on examination, that a portion of the partition next the hall had been forced, sufficient in size to enable Mr. Henry Vincent Garman, of No. 1, Coburg-ter-- race, Bow-road, stated that on the afternoon of Sunday, the 10th inst., he was called upon to see the body of the deceased at the r.quest of his mother and father. in-law, and upon examining the head be discovered two wounds; the lesser one was on the upper part of the right side of the frontal bone. The larger and snore important wound was on the right temporal muscle, and he had no doubt that was the cause of death. In answer to a question by Mr. Broderip, the witness said the poker was a very likely instrument to inflict such a wound. a man to get through. He had had no traces of his pro perty until the apprehension of the prisoner. A man named Davis, a general dealer, identified the prisoner as having brought him for sale a number of such articles as those before described, and for which he received the sum of Bs. The prosecutor identified the goods as being his pro perty. The prisoner said that he had purchased the articles from a tall man, wearing a blue coat, whom he should know were he to see him again. He admitted having sold them to the witness Davis. A police constable said that he knew the prisoner for some time back, and that be had been taken into custody twelve months ago for a similar offence, but on trial was acquitted. kr. COTTINGRAM said that he should remand the pri soner for further examination. Mr. Dawes, a solicitor, who appeared for Carroll, asked the witness if the wound over the right temple would have caused death, if the unfortunate deceased GREENWICH. John White, living at Wapping, was charged with the murder of Ellen Tyrrell, aged 40, the wife of a labouring man residing at East Greenwich. Police -constables 156 and 175 K; stated that they ap prehended the prisoner soon after eleven o'clock at Wap ping -wall, when he admitted that he had been in the de ceased's company on Wednesday evening last at Rother hithe, where he left her, after directing her the way to Greenwich, and went home. Patrick Tyrrell, husband of the deceased, deposed that he last saw his wife alive on Wednesday morning, the 13th inst., at eight o'clock. She then left home for the purpose of going over the water to Wapping, to at tend the funeral of a deceased friend.: He had been in- had received earlier medi'eal attention ?—Mr. Garman cessantly in search after her until this morning, when said that was a very difficult question to answer. He had no doubt the wound did c tuse death, but very early medical treatment might have prolonged life, or miti gated the unfavourable symptoms. Mr. BRODERIP said if a person inflicted a wound upon another, he had no right whatever to calculate on the strength of the man's constitution to endure pain, and if death ensued, he was answerable for the consequences. Inspector Watts said the friends of the deceased wished a police-constable who assisted Bristow to his home to be examined. Mr. BRODERIP—What can he prove ?—lnspector Watts said the deceased informed the policeman, while he was leading him home, that prisoner struck him twice with the poker. Mr. BIiODERIP said that would not be evidence, be cause the deceased, at the time he made the communi be learned Irorn the police that her dead bi;Cly had been found near a place called the Halfpenny-hatch, leading to Rotherhithe. He had since been to see the deceased. He saw the body in a shell, and it ap peared dreadfully swelled about the head and face• Witness had been informed by several persons that cation, was not conscious that he was near death, or that the injuries he received would prove fatal. If the state ment had been made while the deceased was in articulo mortis, it could have been received. The worthy Magis trate then asked the prisoner if he wished to make anv furthiT statement ?—The prisoner replied that he had nothing to add to his former statement. Mr. BRODERIP st4id it was his duty to commit the pri soner for trial for killing and slaying James Bristow, and he hound over the witnesses to prosecute. Thes immediately proceeded to the Old Bailey, for the purpose of going bwfore the grand jury. Hull docks are crowded with shipping. On Wed nesday the blue flag was hoisted, to announce that no more vessels could be admitted. The warehouses are filled with bales of manufactured goods for export, and all is activity along the quays.--Leeds Paper. MARKET NEWS.-(YESTERDAY.) CORN-EXCHANGE. Fresh up :only a moderate quantity of Wheat came to hand from our own counties coastwise, as well as by land carriage and sample ; yet the stands were rather heavily supplied with Monday's unsold parcels. Still, however, owing to the wet weather experienced yesterday, the fluctuating atmosphere of to-day, and the trifling progress as yet made in the cutting of Wheat, the factors were firm, and, in some instances, would not sell except at a slight advance in the quotations. The amount of business actually passing was small. There was rather more inquiry for both free and bonded Wheats of foreign :growth, and prices ruled about stationary. The show of Barley was very small. The best grinding parcels were the turn higher, the value of other kinds being steadily supported. The Malt trade was rather dull, but no depression was submitted to in value. Oats, Beans, and Peas were steady, but in Flour next to nothing was doing. English ...... Irish .....- .. Foreign ......

Wicx, AUG. 12.—The fishing at Wick was very irre gular during the past week, some boats having as high as forty crans, while many were quite clean. The total average for the season is about thirty-four crans. A large number of vessels have arrived with salt, which is sold at I Is. per ton, At Hopeman the average for the season is 60 crans per boat, and at Banff about 40 crans. At Peterhead there are 422 boats, and the average is between 20 and 40 crans, or nearly 6,000 more crans, July fish, than last or previous season. HEIMSDALE, AUGUST 14.—The herring fishers have been very successful to the end of last week. On Tues day the boats averaged on Wednesday 2f, Thursday 8, Friday 9, Saturday 6, making the amount for the sea son about 50 craw., considerably higher than it has been for some years at this date. From 30 to 40 boats have about 100 crans--1 has 170 cr.ns. Should the weather continue favourable a good fishing is looked for ; at present the wind is blowing favourably for this coast. LOSSIEMOUTH, AUG. 7.—The fishing has not been successful here this week, the takes being generally very poor. 13URGHEAD, Auc. 7.—The fishing has not improved since last week, the average being about the same ; a few boats had upwards of 20 crans this morning. The ave rage to this date will be about 33 crans per boat. DUNBAR, Auc. 12.—Our herring fishing during the last week was very successful, the highest boats aver aging about sixty to seventy crans. Prices continue high, owing to the great number of French fishing lug gars here and in the bay, all most anxious to purchase and complete their cargoes.—Ross-shire Advertiser.

SOUTHWARK OPERATIVE PROTESTANT ASSOClA yrox.—Tuesday evening the annual meeting of the members and friends of the above Society was held at the St. George's National and Parochial School-room, Borough-road, South— wark, and as usual was well attended. The Rev. T. Cur was called to the chair, and addressed the meeting, expatiat. ing on the advantages the Society had rendered to the cause of Protestantism, the urgent necessity that existed at the pre sent time for such a society, and concluded by calling on his auditory, as they valued the maintenance of Protestant ortho doxy in its full integrity, to afford it, not only their continued, but their increased support. The Rev. H. Robins, Messrs. Callow, Binden, &c., also addressed the meeting, and resolu tions to uphold the Society were unanimously agreed to, after which the meeting separated. STurio HoAx.—During the wh:•ie of Tuesday some stupid individuals amused themselves by ordering arti di.s of nearly all the principal tradesmen in the neighbour hoed, and sending them to Mr. Smith, the proprietor of the Hope, in Fliackmoor-street, Clare-market. The annoyance commenced as early as nine in the morning, and continued till desk. Mr. Smith has offered a reward for the discovery of the parties. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE NORTH MIDLAND RAIL. sm.—Another melancholy and fatal accident occurred on the North Mitiland Railway, at Masborough, on Saturday last, by which a poor man, named Francis Dam, in the employ of Mr. Barker, of Rotherham, lost his life. The facts are briefly these:—One of the goods trains from Derby had arrived at the Masborough station at half-past one o'clock on Saturday, when a portion of the carriages —six in number—laden with iron, were detached from the train in order that they might run into one of the sidings. A fireman, named John Turner, was about to do this, when the deceased unfortunately attempted to cross the line, just as the train was shunting, or backing. He was knocked down, and three carriages passed over his legs and thighs, when, strange to say with his legs dissevered, he ma naged to drag himself off the rail before the three remaining carriages, with engine and tender, passed over him. He was promptly conveyed to the Sheffield General Infirmary, where every attention was speedily paid him, but so great had been the shock to the system, accompanied with the loss of bkod, that he died at five o'clock the same afternoon. An inquest was held on Monday afternoon. The jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death," accompanying the verdict with a re quest that the Coroner would write to the Secretary of the Midland Company, and say that it was the opinion of the jury that a man should be always stationed on the last carriage of the train when shunting. The jury were also of opinion that the Masborough station was too cramped and limited fer the business done there, and ought to be enlarged. BONDED WHEAT.—Lord John Russell has ob tained a Parliamentary document, which was yesterday printed, showing the quantity of .cheat in bond on the Ist of July during the last eight years. The paper shows that, on the Ist ult., there were 430,394 quarters of wheat in bond. The following is the account rendered from 1838 to 1845 :—ln 1838 there were of wheat and wheat flour in bond, 618,590 quar ters ; 1839, 51,217 ; 1840, 569,952 ; 1841, 579,872 ; 1842, 1,253,436 ; 1843, 297,416 ; 1844, 604,122 ; and in 1845, 430,394. JUGGLERS OP INDIA.—The rope-dancers, serpent tamers, and sword-swallowers of Madras, are celebrated throughout India. They will leap over elephants, and even five camels standing side by aide ; their bodies are so pliant that they twine themselves like snakes upend down between the steps of a ladder : they walk over sharp swords ;. raise heavy burthens with their eyelids ; and, like Ramo Samee of old, are said to be able to float in the air without any visible support. Even the children exercise themselves in swallowing small sticks of bamboo, in order that they may eventually do the like with swords and daggers. ORPHAN WORKING SCHOOL, CITY-ROAD.—The managers of this admirable institution, from the increased applications for admission, have determined on erecting a new building for the children on Haverstock-hill, Hampstuad -road. In order to accomplish this desirable object, an appeal is now being made to the public ; and, from the benefits which the institution has conferred upon those who so much require protection, we doubt not the appeal will not be made in vain.
