An elderly man, who stated his name to be James Wyatt, and was reported to be a Lieutenant-Colonel, and a young man, named Jonas Quested, were brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with a misdemeanour of the most revolting description. George Foster, policeman 425, stated that in consequence of informatidn which he had received, he had watched Wyatt sometimes - three or four times a week, and had seen quite enough of the conduct of that individual to show him that there was strong ground for the very worst suspicion about him. At last witness saw Wyatt and Quested, who met in the street, go into a public-house together, and observed what confirmed him and two other witnesses in the opinion he had formed of the character of the old man. The evidence of Foster was corroborated to the full extent by . Arthur Finn, policeman 276, and the waiter of the house. A solicitor cross-examined the witness for the prisoner Wyatt. The prisoner Quested, upon being asked by the Lord Mayor whether he wished to say anything, stated that he first saw Colonel Wyatt in King William-street, at a shop, where the Colonel called as a cuk tomer ' about two months ago, and where he (Quested) served behind the counter; that he afterwards saw the Colonel in the street, and was invited by him into the public-house, and that they were not long to gether before he discovered what sort of person the Colonel RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. DURHAM AND SUNDERLAND. SUNDERLAND, WEDNESDAY.—Yesterday the annual meet - ing of the proprietors of this railway was held in the Corn - mission-room, Exchange-buildings, C. Brainwell, Esq., - Chairman of the Board of Directors, in the chair. There - was a very numerous attendance of the proprietary. Mr. Timm:a*, the law clerk of the Company, read the - annual and half-yearly statements of the accounts. For the 5 ha'f-year ending the 28th of February the receipts w e re 19,3284, and the disbursements 16,4801., leaving a profit of - 2,903/. A dividend of 10s. per share on 4,830 shares was - then declared, which left a balance of 4881. In addition, - there had been received during the half-year ending the - 30th of August, 11,088/. for the loading of coals, and 4,1761. revenue from the conveyance of passengers and merchandise, ":. making a total of 15,748/. The expenditure amounted to - 14,970/. Of this sum 3,387/. was for wayleave, quay, and - damaged ground rents, and 3,381/. for interest charged on - bonds, mortgages, scrip certificates, loans, and bankers' accounts, leaving a profit on the half-year of 777 1 . The report of the directors stated that there had been a decrease of 4,095/. in the receipts from the traffic - of the coal department during the first half-year, corn - pared with the previous one, which had been produced by in - cidental causes which could neither have been foreseen nor prevented, inasmuch as the revenue of the former half-year was considerably augmented by the great demand for coals which existed in the London market, consequent on the - termination of the pitmen's strike, and from the coal-owners 2 on the line, during the first half-year, having greatly reduced their vends, owing to the low prices which followed the breaking up and abandonment of the regulations by which the coal-trade in the north of England had been so many years governed. A total saving of 1,509/. had. been effected in working the line, including way-lease rents during the last half-year. The total receipts of the half-year had been 15,7481., and the total expenditure 14,9701., leaving a net profit of 777 i. Notwithstanding the smallness of the amount of profit, yet as the traffic in coal had lately much improved, and was gradually recovering its former steady condition, together with the circuinstance of several new collieries now loading and shipping coal by means of the Company's works, the Directors did not doubt of having sufficient funds applicable to a - dividend, and they therefore submitted to the consideration of the Proprietors the ex pediency of declaring a dividend of the sane amount as the last half-year, payable, clear of income-tax, on the Ist of November next. The report stated that the attention of 211 ,z Mr. Robert Stephenson, the celebrated civil engineer, had been directed to various extensions and improvements f the - line, but his report had notyet been received. The Directors - were of opinion that the proposed construction of the docks - on the south side of the harbour, and contiguous to the line, - would benefit the line, and the port of Sunderland, by the numerous facilities it would give the shipping. The report, on the motion of Mr. Price, of Gateshead, - seconded by Mr. Singers, of Newcastle, was carried; and, - on the proposition of the Rev. Mr. Kenncotte. four per cent. - for the half-year, payable on the Ist of November, was declared. After some opposition from Mr. D. Jonassohn, Mr. - Charleton, and Mr. Wright, who thought no dividend should - be declared until next half-year ; Mr. Smith Bright, of - Hull ; Mr. Singers, of Newcastle ; and Mr. Forster, of - Haswell Cottage, were appointed Directors, and the meeting adjourned. SOUTH COAST JUNCTION RAILWAY. was. The prisoners were committed for trial at the Central Criminal Court, and the Lord Mayor directed that the City Solicitor should be instructed to prosecute. GUILDHALL. - - - The examination of Daniel Garratt, the railway thief, was resumed before Mr. Alderman H. Hughes. The Lord Mayor elect and Mr. Alderman Challis were also on the bench. The justice-room was crowded with persons interested in the case. Mr. Clarkson, for the prosecution, began by calling a wit ness to complete the first charge, that the prisoner stole, and Maynard, the estate agent in Howland-street, received, the letter-case, containing bills to the amount of 2,0004 the pro perty of Mr. Vaughan Prance, of Nether Stowey, Bridg water, solicitor. John Rowland Wilson, the landlord of the Blossoms Inn, Lawrence-lame, stated that he knew the prisoner Garrett ; he became acquainted with him eight years ago by lodging in the same house. On the 7th of August a friend left town, and witness went to see him on the 4th or sth. On which ever day it was, the prisoner came to the Blossoms Inn, which he had not visited before, or since, and stayed a short time. It was about noon; he asked the prisoner to wait till after dinner, and then he would accompany him to the west end of the town, where he was going to see a friend. The prisoner declined, saying he was waiting for a friend. It was on the sth of August that Maynard attended, about noon, at the Guildhall Coffee-house with Mr. Prance's desk, when he was given into custody, and it was presumed Maynard was the person the prisoner said he was waiting for. Mr. Alderman H. HUGHES committed the prisoner on this case. Mr. Clarkson then proceeded to a new case. William John Winter of 47, Jewin-street, said he came from Barnstaple to London by the Great Western line on the 26th of August. His luggage consisted of a carpet bag, containing apparel, and a hat-case, containing a hat. On reaching the terminus his luggage could not be found. He valued it at 12e and claimed it from the Company. His name on a card was sewed to the bag, and also was on the handle of the hat-case. The carpet bag, bat-case, shirts, and other articles were produced, and identified by the witness. The marks had been removed from a part of the linen. Collard, the superintendent of the railway police, stated that he found a part of the property at the prisoner's lodgings at Lisson-green, where he apprehended him. The carpet bag, hat, and hat-case he received frorn Mr. Hawkins, a wine merchant, at Kennington-green, who purchased them from the prisoner while he was lodging at the Cock, at Kennington, and the rest lie received frora Mr. Clarke, the landlord of the Cock. Mr. Clarke, of the Cock, Kennington-common, said his sister-in-law assisted him in his business. He received the six shirts produced from her. The prisoner lodged in his house from the 14th of August to the sth of September. Mrs. Mary Ann Clarke corroborated his evidence. The prisoner used to be away for three or four days at a time. About the end of August he called her into his bed-room, and asked her to buy a half-dozen of shirts, the collars of which buttoned behind, instead of down the front. He said he was going abroad, and had more luggage than he wanted. While she was looking at them she was called down stairs, and he rolled them up; put them in her hand, and said, " There, take them." She should have returned them, if she had not been in the country on the day the prisoner left. She gave them to her brother when the officer and Mr. Nash came to inquire about the prisoner. Mr. Thwaites, the prisoner's solicitor, declined to cross examine the witnesses. Mr. Clarkson submitted that he had clearly shown a pos session of the property recently after it was stolen. Mr. Alderman H. HUGHES asked Mrs. Clarke if the pri soner brought in fresh luggage from time to time while he was staying at the house ? She said she saw none brought in. The Alderman asked whether three shirts produced by Mr. Clarke, and which Mr. Winter did not identify, were owned? Mr. Nash said they were part of the large quantity of arti cles found, and which were almost daily advertised, but which had not yet been claimed. The prisoner was then committed on this charge. Mr. Clarkson then proceeded to a case of robbery on the South-Western Railway. At present the gentleman who was robbed, a Mr. Bedingfield, was too ill to attend, but he should offer some evidence. Mr. Bedingfield was on his way from Gosport to London, after witnessing the sailing of the expe rimental squadron, when his travelling case was stolen, con taining apparel and money to the amount of 501. He adver tised and received by the Parcels' Delivery Company a parcel containing his pocketbook, and any papers that could not be converted into money. Mrs. Isabella White, carrying on business as a hosier in the Strand, said Mr. Bedingfield had lodged in her house for seve ral years. She, with a friend, met him at Gosport on the 15th of fuly, and returned with him to town. She saw his travel ling case at the Red Lion, at Portsea, and on reaching London it was missed. They were told it had been put along with witness's luggage, and it was " all right." This, however, turned out to be otherwise. She identified a blouse, shooting jacket, a stock, and some other articles. Mr. Bedinzfield brought home a day or two afterwards a parcel he had re ceived, addressed to No. 50, Old Change. The wrapper was the same now produced. Mr. Wilson, of the Blossoms Inn, was examined as to the handwriting of the direction. He believed it was the prisoner's but he would not swear to it. The prisoner asked permission to look at it, and then. much excited, exclaimed, for 'a thousand pounds to a penny it was not his handwriting. He would call a friend who would swear it was not, and he would re-write the direction to satisfy? the Alderman. Mr. Alderman H. HUGHES-said his writing the address differently now he had seen it would have no weight with him ; and it was awkward to pitch on a scintilla of evidence out of a mass to which he made no objection, for that was like an admission of the rest The' prisoner wished his friend to be examined on the point. Mr. Clarkson recommended Me Thwaites to advise with his client, or he must take the consequences of calling some body who could swear to his writing. Mr. Thwaites with some difficulty appeased his client. - Collard, the officer, proved that the articles produced were found at the prisoner's lodgings at Lisson-green. Mr. Clarkson hoped to complete this case on a future day by calling Mr. Bedingfield. He said there was a case of stealing from the Brighton Railway, but the gentleman who had lost his luggage was obliged to go to China. Mr. Humphreys, the solicitor, stated that he appeared on behalf of the Birmingham Railway Company. Much of the evidence which had been taken at length in the previous case applied equally to his charges, and might be admited into the depositions upon being sufficiently referred to. Mr. Price Lewis, of Jermyn-street, and Llandlear, in Cardi ganshire, said he came to London from Blisworth by the Birmingham line on the 28th of March, and lost his port manteau, containing a writing-case, a pair of leather breeches, and various other articles. He identified the writing-case, the leather breeches, two waistcoats, and some other articles, which Collard produced. He believed the portmanteau pro duced was his property, but he would not swear it. Collard said he received the writing-case from Mr. Nash, who in his presence received it from Mr. Roberts, the land lord of the Dolphin, in Oxford-street. The leather breeches he received from Mr. Broom, the landlord of the Rising Sun, in Air-street, Piccadilly, and the other articles he found at the prisoner's lodgings at Lisson-green. Mr. Roberts deposed, that the prisoner lodged at his house from the last week in March to the beginning of June. He was in the prisoner's bed-room one day and observed, "What a many things you have here." Prisoner said, " Yes, I have, I want to dispose of some. What will suit you?" The pri soner recommended him to buy this writing-case for his children. Witness observed that the lock had been forced. The prisoner explained that he had lost his keys, and was obliged to break it open. When Mr. Nash and the officer came to inquire if he could give them any information about Garrett he produced this writing-case to them. Mr. Broom, the landlord of the Rising Sun, next accounted for the possession of the leather breeches. He saw the pri soner; sell them in his parlour to a customer, and witness purchased them of the latter. The evidence of Mr. Nash and Mrs. Noble as to the find ing of the rest of the property in the room occupied by the prisoner was added. The prisoner was committed on this charge. Mr. Keep, a lace manufacturer, at Newport Pagnell, was then examined as to the loss of a carpet bag. He travelled from Wolverton on Dec. 18. It was stolen at the Wolverton station, and he was told by the bell-ringer that some man had seized it, and taken it into a seeond-class carriage. He heard no more of it till he found it in the hands of Collard, the railway officer. The bag had a new lock now. Mr. Alderman IL HUGHES asked if he was quite sure he could recognise his old friend with a new face? Mr. Keep said he was sure; for he had travelled thousands of miles with it. Mr. Keep also identified a shirt collar. (What other property the bag contained did not transpire.) Collard deposed to finding the carpet bag and collar at the prisoner's lodgings, in North-street, Lisson-green, and the prisoner was committed on this charge. Mr. John Jones, of Kingstown, Dublin, solicitor, was next called. He stated he was a passenger from Chester to London, by the Birmingham line, on the 2d of August, and arrived in London about 10 o'clock at night. Amongst his luggage was a portmanteau, the same now produced by Collard, and the articles of apparel produced were part of its contents. He identified a black dress coat, two pairs of trousers, a satin waistcoat, and other articles. The contents of his portman teau were worth 20/. He missed it at the London terminus. Inspector Collard proved the finding of the property at Garratt's lodgings. Mr. Alderman H. HUGHES committed the prisoner on this charge also. Mr. Webb, merchant, of Huddersfield, was examined rela tive to the loss of a portmanteau on the Birmingham line on the 25th of July. He said this was a part of his luggage. He identified the articles produced, consisting of a dress coat, four white waistcoats, a shirt, and several other articles. Witness had four ladies with him, and had a strong recollec tion of seeing the prisoner standing near him at the terminus. On the prisoner's spectacles being removed, and his hat put on, the witness was further convinced he was the same per son. His luggage was safe on reaching the Euston Station, but on setting the ladies down in Torrington-square, and giving them their luggage, he missed his own. Inspector Collard said he found the whole of these articles at the prisoners's lodging. The prisoner, who appeared to be even cheerful, was com mitted on this charge. Mr. Humphreys said that concluded the charges he had to support. Mr. Nash then prayed that the prisoner might be remanded upon a charge of stealing from the Brighton Railway, as well as to offer further evidence in the case of Mr. Bedingfield. It was arranged that the prisoner should stand remanded till the 17th instant. Mr. Nash complained of a scurrilous attack which had been made upon him by name in one of the railway papers, but which he was told was intended for a person of a dif ferent name. It had given his friends great pain, as they could not conceive how Mr. Nash had committed himself in this proi4eutioli: - 3U 3 3 - 11% - - 66s — 7Gs 3141 si,ii iPI - A meeting was held at Lyme, on Monday, September 22, in conformity with two requisitions sent to the Mayor, one signed by Sir Dudley Hill, and other gentlemen favouring the South Coast Junction line, and the other from Sir Henry Bayley, requesting a meeting to consider which of the con templated railways would be most beneficial. The Mayor, C. C. Benett, Esq., presided, the Town-hall being crowded with a very respectable, but rather excited assemblage. There are two contemplated lines immediately affecting this town, the South Coast Junction, and the Exeter, Dorchester, and Weymouth Junction, and in addition the Yeovil and Dorchester line is to approach within five or six miles of the town. Sir D. HILL opened the business by proposing a resolution in favour of the South Coast line, which he asserted to be a better line for the interests of the town than any other. Lyme was not a large manufacturing • town, but it was a pretty watering-place, and it was desirable that it should have faci lity of communication. _ Ai - p - s;il 6 -- 4. 1 - i,il __ 4% - - i%l - 4%\ 4%1 - 15y4\ -15 514 1 --. ;4! - =1 resolution gave rise to an animated discussion, some speakers asserting that the line could never pay, and others advocating the opposition line. There were a great many gentlemen present from the neighbouring towns, and when it was seen that the decision of the meeting would be con tested, an objection was raised to their voting upon the occa sion. Several Lyme gentlemen addressed the meeting pro and con for nearly two hours, when the Mayor decided that the non• inhabitants could not vote. Mr. HUSSEY, M.P. for the borough, moved the adjourn ment of the meeting, it being, in his opinion, in too excited a state to come to a calm decision upon the qtrstion. . . Sir H. BAYLEY moved the appointment Of a committee to consider the respective'raerits of the rival lines. This was strongly opposed by the promoters of the South COa3t Junction. The meeting was addressed by Sir H. Bayley, Mr. Hill man, Mr. S. Osborne, Mr. H. Templer, Mr. Ritchie, and others; and, after a protracted discussion, a show of bands was taken, and the resolution, proposed by Sir D. Hill de cl i• ed carried by a majority of five only. Several other r solutions in favour of the same line were afterward.s carried. I lIPORTANT FROM THE RIVER PLATE. FALMOUTH, Szvr. 30.—8 y the Martha Jane, arrived off l',..mance, from Buenos Ayres, we have received still later ac,:ounts therefrom, to the 26th of July. The acconwinying particulars of an interview between the British residents and lti r. Ouseley will give an idea of the position of affairs at the al,ove period. For some days previous great uneasiness had fisted among the British residents, but which, it seems, was c.,asiderably allayed after the conference. It was thought the demands of England and France could t be mere moderate or disinterested, and that they would :1 last be admitted. The deputation of the committee of British merchants aited on W. G. Ouseley, Esq., her British Majesty's Mi nister Plenipotentiary, this morning (26th July), when he c.itered upon the following relation of the present state of tie negotiations with the Argentine Government :-- " That the Argentine Government has been in the com mencement of the.. joint negotiations, and repeatedly after wards, requested by the Ministers of England and France to agree to a temporary suspension of hostilities, so as to give opportunity for negotiation to be gone into without any use less loss of life in the meantime. ..... " This proposition was not accepted by the Argentine Go vernment ; on the contrary, it required the rigorous blockade 01 Monte Video to be acknowledged, and meanwhile the siege of that town.was pushed more vigorously than before by General Oribe. ` "On the refusal of the temporary suspension of hostilities, a note was presented by the Ministers requiring the Govern ment to withdraw the Argentine troops from the Estado Ori ental, and the squadron from before Monte Video, the Minis ters binding themselves on their part to the disarming of the foreigners who have taken part in,the dissensions of the Es tado Oriental, thus leaving the native inhabitants to choose their own Government - " This ultimatum was made fixing the 31st instant (July) for orders to be given for the withdrawal of the Argentine forces, warning the Government that if such orders were not given on or before the 31st, the English and French Ministers would leave this city. •.• •• " Measures would of course be subsequently adopted to carry out the requisitions of the English and French Govern ments for the fulfilment of the treaties." Mr. Ouseley also stated that England and France mutually and totally disavow all objects of territorial acquisition in the River Plate. At the conclusion of the interview the deputation requested Mr. Ouseley's advice as to the conduct to be pursued by British residents in the event of diplomatic relations with the Government being interrupted. Mr. Ouseley stated that the interruption of diplomatic re lations did not necessarily imply war, but in any event he recommended them to avoid any irritating demonstrations, and all occasion of differences with the people, to obey the laws and regulations of the country, and rely on itsprotection, on that of international law, and on the stipulation of our treaty for the security of their persons and property. Mr. Ouseley added, that when he had determined upon his own family leaving Buenos Ayres, he had conceived it his duty to offer the same protection to those who might be desi rous of embarking. . ENGLISH JUSTICE.—The Stick, in an article upon the partiality with which justice is administered in England, remarks :—" Summary justice in England is expeditious and 3% sure. A person arrested during t he ni g ht, or the p ravious evening, is on the following morning taken before the judge. The court is public, and the case is consequently tried in 2 % presence of a numerous auditory. The witnesses are heard, after which the party accused states what he may have to say in his defence. The policemen make their charge, and the judge passes sentence. In a few minutes the affair is finished. This mode of proceeding combines at once sure justice with promptitude of judgment. A magistrate is thus enabled to get through from fifty to sixty causes during the day. This system would be perfect if it had better organs; but the police magistrates, who are generally chosen from areong the most able lawyers, belong to a class of citizens in which rank Bald fortune are held in high esteem. They have their share, and a great share, of the national weakness; their equity, which does not vary in ordinary cases, wavers, and trequently yields, when they are (tailed upon to try mi l n ' faults . i nl s i oe t rr a t 6 t ( o ti r ia"6 o s r esT th eor e fe \ they look upon poverty ti r sto th c ti r aristocr atic the aristocracy.

Hard w i c k, c h arge d s t e aling a valuable print from the shop of M r . Pi zza li, of Regent-street. 3LBbr(o)ußg The prisoner was seen to go into the shop and take up the print and walk away with it on his shoulder. He was pur sued, and stopped with the property in his possession. The prisoner, when asked to state what he had to offer in defence, burst into tears, and said he had taken the print through distress. He had formerly been in respectable cir cumstances, but latterly had become so much reduced, that he had no settled place of abode, and procured a scanty living by carrying loads for those who chose to give him a job. He was well known at that court from the circumstance of his father, a baker in the parish, having for many years supplied the resident magistrate's family with bread. The prisoner added that he bad been an inmate of more than one lunatic asylum. The evidence being complete, the depositions were taken, and the pri , 2oner was fully committed. Wiltianz Barnes, a young man of respectable appearance, and William Wright, a person well-known to the police, were charged, the former with stealing 116 sticks of Indian ink, a quantity of hair-drawing pencils, and other articles of the value of 51, the property of Messrs. Rowney and Co., of Rathbone-place, artists' colourmen. The prisoner Baines has been in Messrs. Rowney's employ for several years past. Latterly the firm had reason to sus pect that a very extensive system of robbery was being car ried on by some of their workmen. Last evening the property above-mentioned was missed from a part of the premises where it had purposely been placed as a trap. Barnes was accused of stealing it, and after some hesitation admitted lie had done so, and pointed out where he had secreted it in one of the kitchens. The evidence against Wright was to the following effect :—Sergeants English and Adams of the C division having for some time past noticed that Wright, who is the general associate of well-known thieves and bad cha racters, was very flush of money, resolved on ascertaining the source from which it was derived, and after narrowly watching him for upwards of three weeks, traced out that he was nearly in the daily habit of disposing of large quantities of the goods usually sold by artists' colourmen, at different shops about town. Some of the property he had so disposed of Messrs. Rowney identified as having been stolen from their premises. On being confronted with Barnes this morning, the latter declared that he was the receiver of the property he had ro bb e d his em ployers of. Messrs. Rowney have not as yet been able to discover the extent of their loss, but it is supposed to be very great, and no doubt similar depredations have been com mitted on other houses in the same line, as Wright is proved to have disposed of a considerable amount of carmine, varnish, brushes, pencils, &c. The prisoners were fully committed on two charges, but are to be brought up again to give the opportunity of pre ferring other cases against them. LAMBETH. aware the officers were in search of him, and had seen them ' on the preceding night making inquiries at Mrs. Spriggs's, but that he would foil them all in their attempts; that he was aware a reward of 401. hail been offered to discover the writer, but that if it was 1,000/. it would not have the desired effect. The writer then expressed his determination not to stop until he had sacrificed some of the inhabitants of the parish, whose names he inserted, for their officiousness in at tempting to discover the author of the letters. Another note was also produced, the writer vowing ven• geance against Mr. Clouter for preventing his daughter from taking the powder. A. copy of prisoner's handwriting, with the words, " Miss Elizabeth Spriggs," written that morning, was compared with the superscription on the above letter, and was found to bear a very close resemblance. Sergeant Kendall said, in reference to one of the epistles just read, where the writer said he had seen two men making inquiries about him at Mrs. Spriggs's, that he (the Sergeant) and another officer named Smith, of the detective police, had been making the inquiries alluded to, and that Smith's attention was particularly called to the house where the pri soner's father resided, which was nearly opposite Mrs. Spriggs's, and that the prisoner or some one very like him was observed peeping from one of the upstairs windows. The very next day Mrs. Spriggs's daughter received the letter *hove-mentioned on the subject. Several anonymous letters were also produced, which had been written to Mr. Humble, a hop-merchant, of a threatening nature, and one of them containing poison was addressed to his wife while he was in the country. The letter purported to be from a clerk in Mr. Humble's employ, describing that his employer had directed him to inclose Mrs. Humble some powders of a very efficacious description, which he recom mended her to take as soon as possible, and that they would benefit her health. The chief part of the letters had been dropped in Mr. Humble's own letter-box until the writer found a watch was kept there, and then he regularly posted them. Of course, Mrs. Humble did not adopt the advice con tained in the note, and other threatening ones were sent when the infamous writer found his plan frustrated. Mr. Bowling, chemist and druggist of Kent-street, pro duced some threatening epistles which lie had received in consequence of his being one of the parishioners who had re. commended a reward of 401. for the discovery of the writer. The language in the letters was of the most infamous de scription. Sergeant Kendall stated that the letter directed to Mr.. Stead, threatening to set the church in flames, was posted last Monday at the east end of the town, and that it was since ascertained the prisoner was seen near the office at the time the transaction took pl- ee. Mr. Cormott desire; the sergeant to describe what occurred on his taking e.e prisoner into custody?—The ser geant, in reply, said. that on his meeting the prisoner that day at his father's house, he informed him of the nature of the charge, and the only reply he made was that he knew nothing about it. Mr. COTTLNGIIAM (addressing the prisoner) said—You have heard the statement made against you. The case is not ripe for my decision, but evidence has been adduced which throws considerable suspicion on you that you have been the writer of the letters produced. It is, however, my duty to caution you as to what you wish to say, that you are not bound to say anything if you do not like. Probably it wil be better that you reserve what answer you have to giv until the whole circumstances come before me. You are Mr. Vickery, a solicitor, attended before Mr. Henry, at the request of that magistrate, to give an explanation in refer • ence to a statement which he had made respecting the con nexions of the Rev. James West, and also to hear the state ments of Ferguson and Horsford, officers of the Mendicity Society, in reference to the prisoner. Mr. HENRY, addressing Mr. Vickery, reminded him of his appearing at the examination of a rrieoner who had given the name of Fletcher, and his making a statement relative to the prisoner's high connexions, and also giving the names of distinguished persons as his near relations. Since the publi cation of the case, he (Mr. Henry) had received several letters relative to the prisoner, and one from Earl Delawarr denying the accuracy of his $Mr. Vickery's) assertion that the prisoner was a nephew of his. He (Mr, Henry) was anxious to hear from Mr. Vickery whether the statement he had made about the prisoner was from circumstances which were personally known to him, or were merely derived from the prisoner's own representations ? Mr. Vickery replied, he would state the whole of the cir cumstances, and all he knew about the prisoner. About the year 1830 or 1831 he first became acquainted with the pri soner, through his applying to his (Mr. Vickery's) brother to dispose of some shares in au insurance-office, and the mat ter was referred to hint to ascertain the value of the shares, &c. The result was that he advised his brother to have no thing to do with the shares, but, notwithstanding, an ac quaintance commenced between himself and Mr. West, whom he then considered to be a person of great respectabi lity and highly connected. West had not only represented himself to him as the nephew of Lord Delawarr, but he had frequently seen him write notes which he represented were intended for the Noble Earl, written in the most familiar style, and beginning "My dear uncle ;" but he (Mr. Vickery) could not take upon himself to say that they had ever been posted. Mr. HENRY here remarked that the Earl Delawarr had no brother, and it was' impossible, therefore, that the prisoner could be a nephew of his. Mr. Vickery proceeded to say, that besides the prisoner's representationg, there was another circumstance which led him to believe the prisoner stood in the degree of relationship to Vie Noble Earl he stated, and that was, he was present when West gave an order to Mr. Holder, of Battle-bridge, to execute the arms of Lord Delawarr in stained glass, for the purpose of his presenting it to " his uncle ;" but Mr. Holder •had fortunately neglected to attend to his directions. From about 1834, until two years and a half ago, he lost sight of the prisoner, and the first place he saw him was close to the London-bridge Wharf. He then represented that he had not long arrived from the Continent; that his wife was at the Spread Eagle Hotel ' • that he was in want of some cash, and asked him (Mr. Vickery, )'to get a small bill done for him. Such was his opinion of his respectability and honour, that he actually got a bill of his for 40/. discounted by a friend, and that bill he had since to pay himself. After his first examination at this Court his wife called upon him (Mr. Victory), and requested he would interfere in her husband's behalf, and having clients to visit at Horsemonger-lane gaol, he saw the prisoner there, and he also requested he would assist him professionally. The evidence against him was, however, so conclusive of his guilt, that he told him he could be of no service to him whatever, and that his best defence would be the fact as he had represented, that he had been driven to the commission of the offence through distress and that alone. He (Mr. Vickery ), however, promised to attend his examination, and did so, but it was not his intention to have interfered in any way. His Worship would recollect that what he had stated was after Mr. Henry had committed the prisoner for trial ; so that his statement had not influ enced his worship's decision. He wished also to add that lie had not the least idea, when he made the statement, that it would find its way before the public; and he regretted ex ceedingly that he should have been unintentionally led to make a statement calculated •to give the slightest pain or annoyance to any one. Indeed, upon seeing the contradic tion in the papers, it was his (Mr. Vickery's) intention to have written to Lord Delawarr, and also to have waited upon his worship to exonerate himself from any intention to mis lead or misrepresent. Mr. HENRY was quite satisfied that Mr. Vickery bad been himself imposed upon by the prisoner's representations, which were so well calculated to mislead. The publication of the case afforded additional proof of the beneficial results of the publication of cases at police-courts, as it had brought forth many facts relative to the history and crimes of the prisoner ndu ee publicity, a beneficial to the ends of justice. In th e fi rs t p l ace the pri soner gave the name of James Fletcher, and had it not acci dentally transpired that his name was different, and th a t the s t a t e ment of Mr. Vickery been tried for an offe n c e which b efore a jury might be made h e distress, would have nd h to e appear would perhaps have been acquitted or let off w ith a s li g ht ti and obtainedi dby actual punishment. The publication of the case, however, attracted the attention of the officers of the Mendi c it y S oc i ety, two o f anodffiethe r e s n stated to the ma , whom were then presen t, an d the consequence was the dis closure of his being a notorious be gging letter impostor. I r was pre sentggi g also s t oha at r ta s en f t ri dti :he handed pfiri o an n cs te e an coce of his prisoner's ,r7tldhi which Mendicity.ehi inconviction,cgh ahe b on a notorious efoundng letter impostor. He im postor who called himself the Hon. Mr. Stafford, who had been examined before the Lord Mayor, upon which was written " The Rev. Mr. West, M.A., 1/.," which, he said, showed the connexion between him and the prisoner. The card was here shown to Mr. Vickery, and he at once recognised the writing to be that of the prisoner West. Mr. Vickery declared he had not the slightest idea that West was the character he had been described. He was per fectly satisfied that the father and mother of the prisoner were respectable persons, and he had in his hand a letter from his mother declining to do anything for him, and stating, that for some considerable time his father and bro ther had ceased even to open his letters to them. Mr. HENRY expressed himself satisfied with the explana tion of Mr. Vickery, and directed Ferguson and Horsford to attend the trial of the prisoner at the ensuing Surrey Ses sions, and if found guilty to put the Court in possession of all his previous misconduct. The reverend delinquent still remains in prison, and it is very likely he will remain there until his trial, as from his previous character and conduct it is not likely he will find . bail. however, now charged with being the author of the letters containing the poison, as well as that threatening to set fire to St. George's Church, and, from the similarity of your own handwriting to those letters, the officer has had sufficient grounds for acting as he has done on the occasion, and bring- ing you before me. The prisoner's father wished to be informed by whose in structions his son had been apprehended, whether by the parochial authorities of St. George or by whom else? Mr. COTrINGHAM replied, that complaint had been made in the first instance by the parishioners, and that the Com missioners of Police had given the necessary directions to discover the offender. The prisoner's father said that his son was not prepared with any legal advice, owing to the unexpected and hurried manner in which he was taken away from his business. Mr. CorrixottAm then repeated - the question as to whether the prisoner wished to say anything at the present stage of the inquiry ? and his reply was, that he did not wish to make any statement at present. CorriNGHA3t said thafhe stould remand the prisoner until Monday, but that he had no objection to accept of two sureties of 100/. each for his appearance on that day. Charles Soames and his wife were charged with an assault on an old man. The prosecutor's head was frightfully lacerated, and the side of his face was swollen and bruised very sadly. _ _ . He stated that in the evening he went to the defendant's house and asked for payment of a sum of money that was due to him. The woman answered him at the door, and firs abused him in the coarsest manner, and then fetched a poker and beat him with it about the head. A police-constable was brought to the spot, but the prisoners had escaped, and it was some time before their retreat was ascertained. Before being captured they made a desperate resistance, - and the the woman kicked the officer so severely as to incapacitate him from duty for some days to come. The man's defence was that the prosecutor bad induced his wife to get drunk in his house, and spend between 81. and 9/., and this caused her to become exasperated when she saw him in her sober moments. He denied having done more than endeavour to save his wife from being locked up. The MAGISTRATE said he could not think of fining the de fendants, but be would commit them to the House of Cor rection. The prisoners cried very much, the man imploring the Magistrate to fine them and set them at liberty. Mr. CoMaE refused to do so, and committed them for four teen days. MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE AT THE HOUNSLOW BARRACKS. HOUNSLOW, WEDNESDAY EVENLNG.—The interest excited in military circles by the late unfortunate affair at the Holieslow Barracks is great, and during the day most numerous have been the inquiries as to the state of the wounded man. From the statements made in reference to the circumstances which led to so serious an occurrence, it would appear that the officer between whom and Lieut. Kirwan the disagree ment took place was Captain Lane, of the same regiment. The dinner, it has been already stated, was given by Lieut. Colonel Masters (unattached), on his promotion from the rank of major in that regiment ; and it appears that a quan tity of champagne was presented by Captain Megan, in consequence of his promotion (by purchase) from the rank of lieutenant in the same corps. Most of the officers present drank freely; and while in that state it was that thb altercation took place between Capt. Lane and Lieut. Kirwan, which led to so serious a result. It is also gated that on Lieut. Kirwan finding that Quartermaster Tarleton would not allow him to leave his apartment, with his naked sword in his hand, he shut the door, and, pointing to another sword which was hanging up in the room, told him to defend himself; but be fore the unfortunate man could do so, he received the wound from the lieutenant's sword, under which he is now suffering. The surgeon and assistant-surgeon of the regiment have been ever since in close attendance on Tarleton, and Mr. Frogley, who takes great interest in the case, has been inde fatigable in his attentions. The answer at an early hour this morning was, that the favourable symptoms which pre sented themselves on Tuesday morning had continued during the night, and there was no diminution in them that morning. . Quartermaster Tarleton is a married man, and has a family of three children. His father was quartermaster of the 18th Light Dragoons for many years. Lieutenant Kirwan is believed to be single, and is stated to be highly . connected. During the day several of the officers of the regiment have been to Tothill-lie!ds Bridewell to visit Lieutenant Kirwan, and from all that has transpired on the subject it would ap pear he strongly expresses his regret at the melancholy oc currence, and his earnest wish for the recovery of Tarleton. No day has yet been named for the next examination, as that must depend upon the condition of the wounded man. Upon inquiry this evening, the wounded man is stated to have continued in much the same state throughout the day; but the case, from the nature of the injury, being a very precarious one, it is impossible yet to pronounce him out of danger. dated May 6, 1845:=" We have just received intelligence from Auckland of the intention of "Captain Fitzroy to re establish Customs' duties in New Zealand, as before the im position of the income-tax ; and are daily looking fur official information, and the arrival of the collector from Auckland." SOUTHWARK. Henry Joseph Ktlierby, a youth of 17 years of age, appren tice to a printer in the City, was brought before Mr.Cotting ham, charged on suspicion of being the writer of anonymous letters addressed to several families residing in the borough of Southwark, threatening the lives of the parties, and also inclosing poison for the purpose of destroying them. It will be recollected, that in the course of last week the churchwareens of St. George's . parish, Southwark, made an application at this Court on the subject of anonymous letters received by several of the parishioners, and amongst those producel was one addressed to Mr. Stead, the parish clerk, the writer threatening to set fire to the church if he did not announce to the congregation on Sunday some vile insinua tions against the character of a Mrs. Spriggs, residing in White-street, in the vicinity of the church. In consequence of the application to the Magistrate, two officers of the de tective police have been engaged in the discovery of the affair, and the result of their inquiries was the apprehension of the prisoner, on suspicion of being the person who had trans mitted the letters containing the threats, as well as the poison, to the parties to whom they were addressed. The prisoner is rather a decent-looking lad, and on being placed at the bar, he evinced no fear or alarm at the position in which he stood ; he was accompanied to the Court by his father, who is a tradesman in White-street, nearly opposite to the residence of one of the persons to whom a letter con taining poison had been recently sent. Mr. COTTINGIIAM inquired the nature of the evidence im plicating the prisoner in the alleged charge of sending the threatening letters to the parties who made the complaint. Sergeant Kendall, of the detective police, made a state•• ment to the effect that a memorial was transmitted to Sir James Graham some tine ago, which was afterwards placed in the hands of the Commissioners of Police, and that it con • tabled a representation of the state of alarm into which the writer and his family had been thrown in consequence of the threats of an anonymous writer. The document. which was signed by a brother of the accused, on being placed in the hands of the detective officers, was found to bear a strong re senablanceto the writing in the anonymous letters, and this fact led to further inquiries, in the course of which some writing of the prisoner's was procured, which bore such a similarity to the offensive epistles as to create a very strong belief that he was the writer of them. On arecent occasion it was also ascertained that a letter had been posted in the Minories, and that the prisoner was seen near the place about the time at which it was dropped in the letter-box. Here several anonymous letters were handed to the magis trate, and amongst them one by Mr. Samuel Clouter addressed to his daughter, containing about three-quarters of an ounce of poison, and which ran thus : " Sept. 5, 1845. "My dear Elizabeth,—lf you mix the white powder I have inclosed in the letter you will find it very delicious. It has come from France. I will call in a few days. Mind you mix the powder directly you receive it, and you will find that it has the flavour of the melon." Mr. Corrmietinm compared the writing of the above note with a specimen of the prisoner's handwriting recently pro duced, and remarked that the resemblance was certainly very strong. Evidence was then adduced that the powder containel in the letter had since been analyzed, and was found to he oxalic acid. Another letter was read by the magistrate, addressed to a Miss Elizabeth Spriggs, describing that the writer of it was aware that exertions were made for a discovery; that he was LLOYD'S SHIPPING.

Captain Hotham, in command of her Majesty's ship Gorgon, on the Buenos Ayres station, had, in a memorandum ad dressed to the masters of British vessels, requested their co operation to render assistance to British life and property, if found necessary, in the event of an interruption to the exist ing friendly feeling on the part of the Republic. NOTICE TO MARINERS. PASSAGE OF THE BOSPHORUS AND DARDANELLES AFTER SUNSET. A letter has been received at Lloyd's from the Foreign office, announcing that the anchorage assigned to vessels arriving in the Bosphorus from the Black Sea, after sunset, having been discovered to be unsafe, the Porte has consented to abandon the regulation made some time since, in these cases, thus permitting merchant vessels thus circumstanced to enter the Bosphorus without interruption, and in the same way as previously to the late regulation. TO MERCHANTS INTERESTED IN THE. TRADE WITH INDIA AND CHINA. An extract of a dispatch from her Majesty's Consul at Foo-chow-foo, dated April 26 last, relative to the opening of that port, has been forwarded to Lloyd's by the Board of Trade, which can be seen upon application being made to Mr. obson, Secretary.

All who delight in this foreknowledge should purchase, without loss of time, GRIMSTONE'S WEATHER ALMANACK, whose predic tions of the weather, from his publication to the present day, have been checked by many proprietors of newspapers and other works. The " Times " has eulogised its correctness and peculiar mode of printing ; see page 57. The "John Bull " published its usual check Dec. 22, 1844, giving it, indeed, 336 correct daily predictions , see copy, pages 52 and 54. Also, " The Sun," the " Globe," the "Era," the " Post," " Herald," " Chronicle," " Satirist," " Punch," and many others, have noticed the correctness of this unique work. Amongst the great variety of matter is an interesting biography of his Royal Highness Prince Albert while at the College of Bonn ; also useful Chronology, Royal Family, both Houses of Parliament, Sum mary of Population of the British Empire, Population of the chief towns and cities ; a Calendar, containing Sundays, festivals, anni versaries, Phenomenons, chronological events, mo on ' s age , ec li pses, tides, gardeners' monthly calendar, a column for the weather of every day ; pages 3to 25.

Read page 54, the Medical Report in the " Forceps," Feb. 14, 1844, proving the great advantages arising from the constant use of Grim stone's Eye Snuff having been the cause of clearing our streets of the many green eye-shades, and other human disfigurements. It is the only fashionable snuff of the day sold under the authority of the Lords of the Treasury and Royal Family. Grimstone's Weather Almanack is a beautiful pocket size, with a steel engraving repre senting a bird's eye view of Oxford-street, &c., bound in Waterloe blue, with gilt edges.

Sir,—For the last three or four years I have been labouring under a nervous dearness, so much so at times as to be almost incapable el hearing. After trying several very eminent aurists, from whom I de rived scarcely any relief, I was induced at the solicitation of a friend, to try your excellent Eye Snuff. I accordingly procured one of your 4s. 4d. canisters, after taking which I found considerable benefit, so much so that I sent for two more, which, having used, I found my hearing completely restored, and I have not been deaf since. I should mention that the time I commenced taking your Eye Snuff was in April last, and have continued taking it since.--I am, Sir, your obe dient servant, , W. H. ADAMS. To Mr. W.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTIL—THE FEVER ON THE COAST OF AFRICA. —Nothing has excited such a painful degree of interest, since the frightful mortality which occurred twenty years since in board the Bann, 20, sloop, on the coast of Africa, than the distressing accounts which have reached England of the fearful ravages of the fever in her Majesty's squadron on that station. The deplorable condition of the Eclair, steam sloop, is the theme of general conversation, and the greatest anxiety is manifested at the ports to ascertain the names of those who have fallen victims. As usual, conflicting reports are in circulation as to the number of deaths on board the Eclair, and it was reported, at Devonport, on the arrival of the Growler, steam-sloop, Commander Buckle, which vessel towed the disabled Eclair from Goree to Madeira, that when the Eclair reached .that island only six white men of the crew were surviving, the remainder being men of colour. We are, however, enabled to state that up to yesterday the total number of deaths was 65. The commander, a fine young officer, died on the 16th of September, and the sur geon, Mr. Maconchy, on the 21st of that month. Two poor fellows expired on Monday morning. The following is a full account of the names of the victims:— Officers—Walter G. B. Estcourt, commander, died Sept. 16 ; John Maconchy, surgeon, Sept. 21; Thomas R. Hallett, paymaster and purser, Sept. 8 ; Charles Hurtman, assistant surgeon, Sept. 6 ; Mr. Mulls, clerk, Sept. 6 ; Mr. Simmonds, naval cadet; Mr.Goman, master's assistant. Petty Ot6cers-L-Thomas Davis, leading stoker ; Joseph Guage, caulker ; William Brenan, captain's coxswain ; John Mulls, quartermaster ; John Gibson, ditto ; Henry Gardner, ditto ; James Fielden, captain of forecastle. Stokers—William Cainor, Frederick Clegget, William Thomas, William Aaron, Charles Monk, James M'Derrnot, Patrick Connolly, James Granetty, Garett Keely, John Sul livan, and MiehaelGallaghan, _ _ Able Seamen—Williatiii Skinner, James Barwick, George Steel, Henry Cory, Alexander Cox, Nicholas Dillon, Mathew Garey, Henry Goodhugh. Ordinary Seamen—William Hardman, Frederick Ward, James Watson, John Powder, George Brown, William Thorp, James Startrip, Thomas Colman ; Henry Fudge, captain's steward ; William King, captain's cook ; John Wright, purser's steward. Royal Marines—Robert Chip, drowned, Artillery ; George Chaplin, ditto : John Culver, ditto ; John Hancock, ditto ; William Kerby, ditto ; William Rice, Benjamin Hill, Henry Sherman, James Lark, Thomas Cramage, William Forrest, William Kirk, John Martin, Boys—William Harris, a first class; P. Martton, ditto; William Field, ditto; William Pearn, ditto; James Dutton, second class; James Asthorn, ditto; Thomas Lloyde, ditto; Edward Long, ditto. The Eclair remained at the Motherbank last evening, with the yellow flag with the black ball centre flying. The sur• vivors were not landed in the morning, but Dr. Richardson, the Inspector of Haslar Hospital, sent off medical stores and fresh provisions to her. A lighter was dispatched to the pro scribed vessel yesterday morning, to supply her with coals, and she is ordered to proceed round to the quarantine station, at Standgate Creek, where she will be under the yellow flag, but will be better provided with assistance and medical advice. Most likely she will be in a condition to leave to-day. The fever is said to be of a most deadly and contagious character. Admiral Sir C. Ogle assumed the office of commander in chief at Portsmouth yesterday morning; his flag was hoisted on board the Excellent, Captain Chads (pro tem.), and re ceived the usual salutes from that ship, the Victory, and the Formidable. The Formidable, 84, Captain Rich, has not yet left Spit head, but the flag of Vice-Admiral Sir E. C. R. W. Owen was struck last evening : Tho Admiral and Lady Owen landed on Tuesday evening, and remain at present at the George Hotel. It is much regretted that the defective state of the Formidable will prevent her joining the experimontal fleet. The Superb, SO, Captain A. L. Cory, went into Portsmouth Harbour on Tuesday, and into dock all standing yesterday. Her Men are hulked on board the Victorious ; her copper was perfectly clean and in excellent order, not a wrinkle or swell to be seen ' it hiving been only flattened down about 16 weeks back. So soon as the water was clear from the dock, men were sent on to rip off the copper. She will be fresh caulked and coppered. What other process she will undergo we cannot tell ; but it is understood the shipwrights and caulkers are to work early and late, to get her ready to come out of dock to-morrow. The officers belonging to her do not know any reason for this ship coming into dock. She did not leak, her copper was clean, and nearly new. As we have hinted, some further alterations than coppering and caulking may be made. CORN AVERAGES.
