SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—We receive the following bulletin of the Oxford Ward campaign from a source which may be relied upon : WITDRAWAL OF THE NEW STATUTE PROPOSED AT OXFORD FOR PREVENT ING FRAUDULENT SUBSCRIPTION. OXFORD, JAN. 20.—" It is said, that in consequence of the remonstrances of numerous members of Convocation, of liberal or Evangelical opinions, who have been brought to consider the new statute as capable of being abused and made an additional test, a resolution passed the Hebdomadal Board this day to refer that part of the measures recom mended by the Dean of Ch. Ch.'s Committee, back to the Committee, for revision. The impression here is that such proceeding is preliminaay to the total with drawal of the new statute. " In this case there will remain to be submitted to Convocation on the 13th of February two questions only—one, of the consistency of Mr. Ward's proposi tion with good faith, in subscribing the 39 Articles — the other, of his being removed from his degree. It ap pears that the Rev. Gentleman has obtained an opinion from the Queen's Advocate, and Mr. Bethell, Q.C., that the latter measure is illegal, on the same grounds as were alleged by Lord Campbell, in 1836, against the politico-religious movement of Convocation in the case of Dr. Hampden ; but it is said that, what ever question may still exist as to the latter mea sure, the Hebdomadal Board have in the case of Mr. Ward acted throughout under the best legal advice. There is no doubt of the resolutions against the book passing by a large majority, but the degradation of the author will be resisted by the whole force of the Tractarians, on the excuse of pre sumed illegality. Many liberal members of Convoca tion will also vote against it, or be neutral, on the ground of its being a privilegium. Among the imme diate results of the present agitation, not the least im portant has been the appearance of several pamphlets, on the part of the High Tory and Tractarian party, abounding in panegyric on the comprehensive character of the Articles, and in principles tending to the removal of religious tests, as encouraging hypocrisy, and un suited to the present age." We may now, then, consider the proposed test as thrown overboard ; a result which the deliberate opinion we had formed of its impolicy makes us think matter for congratulation. We also think it matter for congratulation that the natural foes of religious liberty have been turned for the nonce into its friends by the discussion of this statute. And we call upon those Liberal Church men in the University who agree with them (as we do) on this occasion, to test the sincerity of such professions as the emergency, has wrung from this party. Misery makes men acquainted with strange bed-fellows ; and we recommend the bed-fellows not to let these gentlemen shake off the acquaintance. If the Tractarian party in Oxford really think religious tests premiums on hypocrisy, it would be a pity not to avail ourselves of this fine glow of liberal feeling in them. Of course they hold themselves prepared to vote for any relaxa tion which may be brought forward. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS CITY, MONDAY EvENING. TIMES.—The rejection of various projected lines by the Board of Trade necessarily produces dissatisfaction among the parties interested in the schemes, 'weever the soundness of the decisions may be recognised by the public at large. The Board of Trade appears as an en tirely new power in, the field of railway property, and while confidence is generally placed in its judgment, its proceedings in each Case are liable to be watched with jealousy and criticised with severity. The voices raised against it will - usually be . raised by interested parties, but nevertheless, as recorders of public opinion, we cannot let these expressions of opinion or of feeling pass unnoticed, when. so much property is at stake, and :4) largo a power is vested in a Government Board. It must not 'be implied from the extract of the letters refer ring to the subject that may be printed under this head, that we at all adopt the opinions they contain. Our only motive is to give a hearing to all parties that ex press themselves with a reasonable degree of plausibility. Several of these letters refer to the decision of the Board on the subject of the Kent lines, and treat the pre ference given to the South-Eastein Company as tending to form a spirit of monopoly. From one of these com munications the following extract has been taken : " Whether viewed as to its engineering arrangements, or as to the public service, in relation to the naval and military depots connected with the line, or as to the feel ings of the proprietors of the land throtTh which it passes, there is not an argument in favour of the prefer ence which has been so unaccountably given to the South- Jiastern line. " I may be told that the decision is arrived at in car rying out a general principle; and that, after the course adopted with regard to the • Portsmouth Direct,' no other than this could be followed. Did time permit I could easily prove that the two cases bear little, if any ana logy ; but, even if they do, I still join issue as to the principle involved, and I contend that it is inconsistent with the public feeling as regards monopoly of every kind ; that it is injurious to the public interest, as throwing an obstacle in the way of every improvement which is likely to arise out of the free employment of capital upon works of general utility ; and, mort over. it is at variance with the animus of a resolu tion on the minutes of the Lords of the Committee of the Pricy Council, from which this Sub Committee of the Iloard of Trade emanates, fur in the resolution to which I refer the projection of even parallel competine lines is evidently contemplated. They d irect this Sub-Com mittee to look narrowly into any ' branch and extension lines in cases where a presumption is raised that the Object of the scheme is to throw difficulties in the way of new, and probably legitimate, enterprises.' Now, what are the features of the scheme proposed by the Dover Company, and approved by the Committee of the Beard of Trade ? The Dover Company originally determined upon traversing ,the southern division of the county of Kent. They cared nothing for the inhabitants. of the central or northern divisions ; but the moment an inde pendent line is talked of, coming through a populous dis trict with which they . had hitherto had no connexion, they raised money in every channel through which money can be raised, and throw out branches to some of the large towns which the new scheme is intended to " But to return to the character of the decision come to by the Board of Trade: the only entirely new line to which they have given their approbation—viz., the South-Eastern, North Kent, Ilungerford-bridge, and Chilham, has, beside all other objections, no legitimate existence. The required forms have not been complied with, and they cannot move a step in their progress through the Hosse of Commons without a relaxation of the standing orders of the louse in favour of monopoly." Connected with the absording subject of railways is an analysis, which has appeared in the Banker's Magazine, of the proposed application to Parliament, with the re mark that it is a very good approximation, if not exactly accurate. The number of notices is as follows: " 1. Notices by old Companies for Acts for short branch lines, minor deviations, and amendments of legal clauses of existing Acts " 2. Notices by old Companies for important new lines, as extensions, &c. 3O " 3. Notices by new Companies for new lines, which are alternatives to other proposed lines " 4. Notices by new Companies for lines which are not alternatives " Total number of notices Q 37 TUESDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE Her Majesty has been graciously pleased to signify her pleasure that the Kettering Yeomanry Cavalry should be henceforth designated by the title of " The Royal Kettering Corps of Yeomanry Cavalry."

The Court took the special paper to-day, and wero engaged in hearing arguments upon the case of the committal of Mr. Vandersol, by the order of the Court of Review, for a contempt. The arguments were of a purely legal character, and would not afford any general interest. BAIL COURT, Jan. 21. (Before Mr. Justice WILL(Ams.) ILLUSTRATED RECORDS. - _ Mr. FITZFIERBERT moved for a rule to show cause why certain pictures, or, more properly speaking, plans which had relation to a patent, should not be struck out of the record, in a case pending before the Court. It was the first time within his knowledge that such illustrations had been introduced into com mon-law pleadings. Mr. Justice WlLLlAms—They are intended to illu minate the pleas, I suppose. Mr. FITZHERBERT—Ne doubt, nay Lord. But though it is now the fashion to illustrate almost every thing, I never expected to see legal papers so embel lished. Mr. Justice WlLLlAms—Take a rule niai, and let the matter be argued before a full court. Rule granted. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Jan. 21. (Before the CHIRP COMMISSIONER.) IN RE JOSEPH lIILLYER. The insolvent was the well-known and popular equestrian who had been so many years attached to the late Mr. Ducrow's company. He described him self in his schedule as a riding-master and theatrical equestrian. The insolvent's petition to be discharged was sup ported by Mr. Woodrutre, and opposed by Mr. Cooke on behalf of Mr. Hayes, who married the late Mr. Ducrow's widow, on account of a large number of horses and a quantity of theatrical property which the insolvent had bought from her shortly after her former husband's death. During a lengthened and searching examination to which he was subjected by Mr. COOKE, the insolvent stated that the last engagement he had was at Fran conia Theatre in Paris, where he, with his wife, got 81. a week. An action was brought in one of the French courts of law, in consequence of which he left Paris, but returned again. He had no property whatever in Paris at present, although he took over two horses and a pony with him when he went there, but he subsequently disposed of them to the proprietor of the Theatre Francaise. Shortly before the late Mr. Ducrow's death he made a will, in which he left insolvent a legacy l of 2701. ; ht and on M his demise iu Jadatiary, , he boug from rs. Ducrow seven horses out of the stud of her late husband, seven poneys, and a quantity of horse fur niture and trappings, and also some theatrical pro perty. The sum which he agreed to pay for this purchase was 7001., out of which the amount of the legacy left by Mr. Ducrow was to be deducted, and the remainder of the money was to be paid in quarterly instalments of 251. He was unable to read or write himself, but he got some of the members of the company to keep a profit and loss account of the various theatrical speculations upon which he entered. Previous to going to Franconi's, at Paris, he took his company and a portion of his stud to Hamburgh, but this spetulation proved a complete failure, and, after a sojourn of nine weeks there, he was compelled to give ' itup,having lost a large sum of money. H e was engaged at the Theatre Royal, in Dublin, by Mr. Caleraft, from whom ho got a bill for 1751. 'in payment of his salary, which bill he was compelled to sell in Hamburgh for 701. He also was compelled to sell some of his horses ' there as well as some of his theatrical property. He was born in Italy, but had been twenty-one years in this country, the greater part of which he spent in Mr. Ducrow's theatre. He had also been compelled to dispose of several of his horses in various places where he had been performing. He swore distinctly that he now possessed no property whatever, either at THE SUN, LONDON, W Paris, Hamburgh, or elsewhere. He did own a house at No. 9, Stangate• street, about fourteen months ago, but during his absence on the continent his mother-in-law paid the rent and taxes, and also supported his children, and both the property and furniture in the house, and the interest in the house, was vested in her. Several other witnesses were examined. Mr. COOKE applied to have the case postponed for a week, on the ground that although the insolvent had shown how he disposed of certain property, he had failed to render a satisfactory cash account. The Learned CHIEF COMMISSIONER said, although he agreed with the Learned Counsel as to the cash account, yet he thought the insolvent had shown every anxiety to render a full and satisfactory account of his affairs. The COURT then ordered the case to stand ad journed for a week, in order that the insolvent might file a new money account. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) CLERKEIVWELL. James Steward was charged with absconding from the St. Pancras workhouse, and stealing a suit of clothes. Mr. Lee, the master, deposed to the fact of the prisoner's absconding about a week ago, and to his returning to the workhouse as a destitute pauper, on Saturday last, without the workhouse uniform, which he said he sold to pay his debts. He scaled the walls of the workhouse. Mr. GREENWOOD—WeII, what have you to say ? Prisoner (cooll:-)—I sold the clothes to redeem arti cles of more consequence.—He was sentenced to twenty-one days' imprisonment. LAMBETH. Upon Mr. Henry taking his seat on the bench this morning, a greengrocer, residing in North-street, East-lane, Walworth, applied to the Magistrate for an assault warrant against two men and a female. The applicant said that about half-past nine o'clock last night the female, accompanied by two men, en tered his parlour with a large clasp-knife in her hand, about nine inches in length, and would have stabbed him in the breast but that her aim was fortunately turned aside. The two men and women uttered the most dreadful imprecations against him. There was a crowd of about three hundred persons assembled round his door, and the neighbourhood was thrown into the greatest confusion. One of the men was named Miles. Mr. HENaY said he thought there must be some cause for so extraordinary an assault, but he would grant the warrant against Miles and the female. WORSHIP-STREET. On Monday, Rowland, the warrant-officer, reported to the magistrate the result of inquiries he had been directed to make relative to an appalling case of be reavement and distress, which had taken place in the family of a poor weaver named Ney, living in Ridge's fields, Twig Folly, near Old Ford. Mr. Broughton's attention was first directed to the case on Saturday last by Mr. Harvey, a schoolmaster in Bethnal-green, who waited upon the magistrate and stated that the object of his solicitude, a man of most industrious habits and excellent character, had by close and indefatigable labour contrived creditably to support a wife and numerous family, amounting to eight children, all of whom lived with him at home and were in perfect health, until about three weeks since, when they were attacked by a malignant fever, whose ravages had swept no less than six of the chil dren to the grave. The man was actuated by such feelings of honest pride and independence, that he had steadily refused to accept any assistance from the parish to defray the medical and funeral expenses of his unfortunate family, and his slender finances had been so thoroughly drained by his sudden misfortune, that he was now reduced to a state of the greatest want and wretchedness. The applicant added, that he had satisfied himself by personal investigation of the truth of the statement he was making, and felt it to be a case that urgently demanded the most prompt and effectual assistance. On hearing the above statement, Mr. BROUGHTON immediately directed Rowland to proceed to the man's house and inquire into the facts of the case, and, handing the officer a sovereign, ordered him to appropriate it to the relief of the most pressing wants of the family. Rowland yesterday reported to the magistrate that he had been to the house of the weaver, and had found the unfortunate creatures in the exact condition that had been represented by the benevolent person who had brought the circumstances to light. He had ascertained that the disease of which the poor children had died was scarlet fever, terminating in dropsy ; four of the family were not only dead, but buried al ready ; and, in addition to two other children who were now lying in the house dead in their coffins, another child, making the seventh victim to the disease, was in such a dangerous state as to preclude all hope of its recovery. In consequence of their incessant attendance upon their children, the father and mother had been wholly unable to pursue their occupation ever since the family had been attacked by the fever, and were reduced to the greatest distress ; and from the hopeless condition of the other child, and the mental and physical debility of the parents, there did not appear much likelihood of their being able to resume work for some time to come. He had learned that one of the neighbours, who pitied their con dition, had reported the circumstances of the case to Mr. Christey, the relieving overseer of Bethnal green, and that that gentleman, on being ap prised of the facts, had given them his prompt attention, and directed that they should receive ss. per week till something better could be done for them ; but so small an amount of assistance was wholly inadequate to meet their situation, and the father ex pressed the strongest repugnance to permit his chil dren to be buried like paupers at the expense of the parish, and was determined to undergo any privation rather than submit to such an alternative. Rowland added, that, notwithstanding the distress of the family and the awful calamity that had befallen them, their little place exhibited the greatest order and cleanliness, and that both the man and his wife were much esteemed in the neighbourhood, and everywhere described as a sober, industrious, and honest couple. Mr. BBOUGHTOI.4 said he was pleased to hear that such was the case, and directed the officer not to lose sight of the unfortunate family, but to render them what further assistance he might consider urgently requisite under the trying circumstances in which they were placed. THAMES POLICE. Monday Augustus Joseph Hope, grandson to Dr. Hope, late surgeon of the Dreadnought, was charged with robbing the till of Mr. Rowland Alger, grocer, of Cannon-street-road, in whose service he had been as an assistant. The prisoner, on coming of age, would be entitled to the sum of 1,0001., with several other considerable expectaneies. It appeared, that the lad Hope came into com plainant's employment about three weeks ago, and circumstances occurred which induced a suspicion that all was not right as to his conduct. On Satur day some money was marked and thrown into the till. On the following day Mr. Alger asked him what money he had about - him, upon which he pro duced a shilling, and said that was all. On being pressed to search his pockets further, the prisoner produced Is. and 4d. more in silver. Mr. Alger then said, he suspected him of being a dishonest lad, and asked if he had any copper money on him ? He steadily persisted he had not, but on a further search 4s. I Id. in copper, together with a corkscrew belonging to complainant, was found in his pocket. Seven of the penny pieces exhibited the marks put on them on Saturday. Complainant believed the whole of the money found on the prisoner to be his, and he was satisfied 1001. would not cover the losses which he had sustained in the same way during the last twelve months. The prisoner in his defence told the story he had previously told to the constable when taken into custody—namely, that the money found on him was given to him by his friends. He accounted for his possession of the marked copper pieces by admitting that he took them from the till to pay into a penny savings'-bank in the neighbourhood, but he always put back the amount in silver of any coppers so taken. The lad was committed to Newgate for trial at the Central Criminal Court. DARING BURGLARY AND CAITIPRE oP TILE BUR , GLARS.—On Friday last, near midnight, a most daring burglary was effected at the French Horn, public-house, Gerard's-cross, near Beaconsfield, in the occupation of Mr. George Yowell. It appears that the thieves obtained an entrance into the front of the bar, immediately underneath the window, by removing a sufficient quantity of the brickwork to admit the body of a man. Having thus effected admission into the pre mises, they proceeded to the larder, where, it appears, they regaled themselves most sumptuously, as most of the cooked victuals were missing. They took also fror thence two flitches of bacon, a considerable quantity oh cigars from boxes in the bar, and a quantity of liquor. So plentifully did they imbibe the strong drink in the landlord's barrels, that before they had made the requi site preparations for their departure they became some what noisy, by which proceeding they disturbed the slumbers of the ostler, who watched their movements, and followed them a little way down the lane. One of the party had one of the flitches of bacon upon his back, another carried a flitch in his arms, and the third car ried the rest of the plunder. All of them being in a state of intoxication, and the ostler having observed them, on their road toward s Fulme r , place their loads behind some ricks of corn, and then lie themselves down beside their plunder, he hastened to inform the consta bulary before daylight, when Mr. Larkin, the high con stable of Buckinghamshire, sergeant Roadnight, and constable King, sallied forth to meet the marauders. They came up with and captured them near to Long bridge ; and on Saturday they had a hearing before Sir William Wiseman and Sir Thomas Dagrell, Esq., at the Court-house, at Uxbridge. The magistrates immediately ordered that the three prisoners, whose names are Samuel Tunnard, Robert Ball, and Robert Shoppee, should be at once taken to Beaconsfield, where they were conveyed DNESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 22, 1845. THE MURDER AT RUISLIP, CO,NI MITTED EIGHT YEARS AGO. LATEST PRICES OF SHARES IN RAILWAYS, BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COMPANIES' STOCK. From the Official List, EXAMINATION OF THE ACCUSED. Charles Lamb, a prisoner in the House of Correction, Cold Bath-fields, yesterday underwent an examination before Mr. Mills, an Uxbridge magistrate, in the board room of the prison, on a charge of having murdered John Brill, a youth of sixteen, who was murdered in a wood at Ruislip, in February, 1837. George Sibley, also a prisoner in the House of Correction, was the first witness called. He stated—l came lately from Harefield. I am now in this House of Correction. I know Charles Lamb. I have known him rather better than twelve months. I have been inti mate with him. We used to go out poaching, and were at hide and seek together. About a fort night before Lamb was sent to prison I was coming from Rickmansworth to Harefield with him, and when we were in a lane at the bottom of a field we began to talk about getting into trouble and getting out again. I said, " It is easy enough to get into trouble, but not very easy to get out again." Lamb said to me, "You have been in prison haven't you ? I have heard it is very bad." I said, "Of course it is ;" and he then said, "I would sooner be taken for murder than go to prison for this." I said, " Murder I Charley ?" and he replied, " Yes. I was in Churchill's wood getting a bundle of wood when John Brill came up to me, and I took and struck him and knocked him down. A few moments after that I took and picked up his cap, and hung it upon a bough, and put his bill hook and cap beside him, to look as if he had fallen out of a tree." Lamb then said to me, " Nobody else knows of it but you, and if you tell, I will kill you." He said that when Brill came up to him, as he was walking along the wood, he said, " Well, master Lamb, is it you ?" Upon which he took and struck and knocked him down. I had heard of the murder some years ago ; and that a man named Lavender had been had up for it. I have always been on good terms with the prisoner Lamb. The reason of my making this statement was that I had bad such queer dreams. I thought something would happen if I did not tell. I have voluntarily made this statement, without promise or favour from any one. I first made it to Mr. Hoare, the chief warden of the House of Correction, having first told the yards man that I wished to do it. I was twenty-five years of age last August. lam now looking Lamb in the face, and I state that he told me what I have now said, and it is the truth, and nothing but the truth. Mr. Woodbridge (the clerk)—Now, Lamb, have you any question to ask the witness ? Lamb—No, Sir ; I can't ask him anything. I never told it to him. If God Almighty refuses to receive me into heaven I never did it. You must be a very wicked man to say I told you so ; you must be worse than the man who did the mur der, whoever that was. Thank the Almighty, I have not to answer fur that, let me go where I will, or suffer what I will for it. You are doing this just on purpose to get yourself out of prison. Colonel Chesterton, the governor of the prison, told Lamb not to Make these declarations, but to confine him self simply to putting questions to the witness if he had any to put. Lamb repeated he had no questions to put. James Brill was next called, and stated—l live in the parish of Ruislip. I once had a son named John Brill. He was about 16 years old in the year 1837 ; it will be eight years, come next February, he worked for and lived with Charles Churchill, a farmer. He was missing on a Thursday, and his body was found on the fo:lowing Sunday, in what is called Young Wood, in the parish of Ruislip. I saw the dead body in this wood lying on its back. James Lavender first discovered it, and called out to me. I was about 300 yards from him at the time, in the act of searching the woods. Hi s ca p was hung on a little white thorn bush. By the side of him lay a bill-hook and " hedging cuff," or sort of glove. I saw the body lifted up, and blood gushed out both from his nose and mouth. The Clerk—Do you wish to ask him any question ? Lamb—No, Sir, I nave no question to ask him. Charles Churchill—l live at Ruislip, and am a farmer. I recollect as well as if it was but yesterday, that John Brill was in my employment on 16th Feb., 1837. I recollect the day on which his body was found. On that morning, about half-past nine o'clock, I sent him to take three cows into the meadow. He had a bill-hook in his hand, and a cuff to stop up the gaps in the hedge, which the fox-hounds had broken down. I told him when he had finished the gaps to go into the Young Wood, and then into the path which leads up through the Young Wood to my house, and to watch that wood until towards one o'clock. By Mr. MILLS—He was to watch it against persons cutting wood. I had been out before, and I was going out. I told him if he saw any one cutting not to inter fere, but only to get near enough to see who it was. I was going to Uxbridge market on that day, and when got down against the Six Bells, the landlady came out and asked me to give her a ride. A man named Meadows came out and asked me if I had heard a gun go off in my cover ? I said, no ; but got out and went across to John Brill, whom I found stopping the gaps according to my direction; that was the last time I saw him alive. I then told him, when he went home to his dinner, to stay at home until I returned, which would be about three. On my return, finding that tie did not come to open the gate, I thought something was amiss, for he was a lad that was always to his time. If you told him to be anywhere in the middle of the night, he was sure to be there. I had heard threats against the lad, because he was a witness in a charge of poaching which had been preferred against a man named Lavender. I then went into the woods to see if I could find him ; and searched about the woods, but could not find him. I then sent to his father, who, with another man, went in search of him, but could not discover anything of him. Next morning, at daybreak, the search was renewed; but they did not find him. Did not search on Saturday, having heard that he had run away, and had been seen at West End. There were one-and-twenty persons search ing the wood on Friday. On Sunday the search was resumed, and had not been continued more than half an hour, when he was found by James La vender, who cried out murder. I went up and saw him lying on his back dead, by a bush, with his arm hooked up against a bush ; his cuff and bill lay at his feet. Some blood ran from his ears. The body was taken to the Six sells, Ruislip-common. His head dropped as if his neck was broken, when they first lifted him up. I was not present when the surgeons examined him. I did not see any bruise on the temple cr other part of the head. I saw on the Monday that some underwood had been cut at about 20 or 30 yards from the place where the body was found. Mary Allday—l am the wife of Thomas Allday, and live at Ruislip-common. My husband is a labourer. I recollect John Brill being lost on the 16th February, 1837. On that morning I saw the prisoner Lamb at the Six Bells. I was looking out at an upstairs window of my father's house, where I then lived. He was going down the footpath leading ta the wood now over looked by Churchill, and had a bill in his hand. I saw him again a little after twelve the same day; I was up at my grandmother's house at the time. He was then coming from the direction of the wood with a bundle of wood on his shoulder—large green bits in the middle, and the smaller pieces outside. It was green wood, and apparently freshly cut. He went towards his own home. Mr. Miu.s (to the prisoner)—Have you any question to ask ? Lamb—No, Sir, what she has stated is perfectly true. Henry Woodman—l am a labourer, living at Ruislip. I knew John Brill. I have lived at Ruislip ever since the period of his death. On that day I saw Charles Lamb near the wood, and he asked m e it I had seen Mr. Churchill and his wife go by. I said I had about an hour and a halt' before, upon which L a mb returned into the wood. I saw him get over the gate into the wood. That same evening I heard that the body of John Brill was missing. James Lavender deposed to having found the body on the Sunday, as deposed by the other witnesses. Rachel Brill, mother of the deceased, saw a large bruise on the side of his head when the body was taken to the Six Bells public-house. Mr. Charles Woodman, farmer, of Ruislip, saw the deceased on the 16th February, 1837, at work mending gaps in the hedges. He was then alive and well. Charles Bray had met Lamb on the 16th of February, 1867, on Ruislip-common, He was out of breath, was sweating, and said he was not very well. Witness told him if ho would go to the Six Bells he would give him half a pint of beer. They went together, and had two pints of beer between them. Heard of the lad's being lust the same night. Mr. Robert Burton, late of Uxbridge, and now of Dorset-street, Portman-square, stated that ho assisted Mr. Patten in examining the body of the lad Brill the day before the inquest. It was Mr. Patten's case, and witness assisted him. Mr. Patten was since deceased. The left ear was very much swollen and livid. Had no doubt that ho died from violence ; on removing the skull cap found the vessels very much gorged. There was also a greater effusion of blood on the right side of the brain than on the left. This would lead to the con clusion that the effusion had been caused by a violent blow on the left side. The first witness, Sibley, was recalled, and stated that he recollected hearing of the murder, but did not help to search for the body, and did not hear any particulars of it. Only heard of it as a murder. Did nut hear of the body being found, and had never heard of the cuff and billhook, until told of it by Lamb. As the witness was leaving the room, Lamb said to him, " A'n't you ashamed of yourself, George ? If you are not, you ought to be." Mr. MlLLs—What do you now say to the charge, Lamb ? Prisoner—All I have got to say, Gentlemen, is, that I never named it to him if I was to die " mently." Mr. MILLS then told the prisoner that it would be his duty to send him for trial at the next session of the Central Criminal Court. PUBLISHED EVERY TUESDAY AND FRIDAY EVENING. LONDON, JANUARY 21.

SUGAR.—The market for British Plantation has been very heavy, only about 300 hhds having been sold at rather lower prices for the interior descriptions. The public sales have consisted chiefly of 349 bags Mauri tius, 4,445 bags and 143 chests Bengal, nearly all of which found buyers, but in most instances at a further decline of fully Gd to is; the greater part of the Bengal consisted of low and inferior quality, and being mostly in small lots, affords little guide to the market generally. The quantity of British Plantation landed last week at the East and West India Docks was 1,498 hhds, 17 tierces, 71 barrels; and there were taken for home consumption 1,097 hhds, 96 tierces, 168 barrels. The stock in the same places is 8,048 hhds, 850 tierces, 1,475 barrels. COFFEE.-1,993 bags Ceylon (chiefly British Planta tion kind), 900 boxes Mocha, and 535 bags Costa Rica were offered by auction. About one-half the Ceylon, and the whole of the Mocha sold, the former at 508 to 51s, a few bags at 51s 6d for good ord to very good ord, and the latter at 58s to 69s for middling to good clean garbled, being for the Ceylon 6d to Is cheaper, and for the Mocha a reduction of 3s to 4s. The Costa Rica were all taken in at 44s to 58s for good to fine fine ord colory quality, being above the value. Rum.—The quantity landed last week at the East and West India Docks was 224 puns 173 hhds. There were taken for home consumption 141 puns 41 hhds, and ex ported 185 puns 198 hhds. The stock in the same places is 10,123 puns 1,240 hhds. Rim-1,000 bags Madras at auction were chiefly taken in at 9s 6d to 10s 6d for ord to mid white. SA.LTPETRE.-400 bags Madras sold steadily at 255, and one lot 25s 6d, for 10-1 per cent.. refraction. SPICES.-1,506 bags Malabar Pepper and 386 chests Cassia Lignea were offered b auction ; all the former was disposed of at 2id to 3id for good light (Batavia kind) to good heavy, shot kind, Malabar being in most instances fully id lower. The latter found buyers but at rather lower prices, viz., at 52s to 65s 6d for low mid coarse to good quality. TALLow.—P.Y.C. is dull at 39s 6d to 40s per cwt on the spot, and Town at 44s per cwt. TEA.—Public sales of 20,000 packages are declared. This checks business ; the deliveries are good. (From the London New Price Current of Jan. 21.) SUGAR.—To-day the market presented a flat appear ance for British Plantation Sugar, the demand was limited for the scale and pan, and the rates accepted were rather those of Friday for brown, grey, inferior, and middling yellow, but for the better kinds of the latter merchants were enabled to obtain the previous cur • rency, in consequence of the short supply in the market. At public sale 117 hhds 3 trs Barbadoes were disposed of at full rates for fine, but all other kinds went 6d to Is per cwt cheaper, low sold at 52s 6d to 53s 6d, middling 55s 6d to 58s, good 60s to 61s 6d, good middling 58s 6d to 595, and fine 66s 6d per cwt. The total purchases are only 350 hhds and tierces. REFINED.—To-day there was only a limited demand for Refined goods from the home trade ; brown lumps are 71s to 71s 6d, and standard lumps 72s 6d per cwt. For Treacle prices have fallen ; boiled from West India selling at 20s to 20s 6d ; patent 21s to 22s 6d, and golden syrup 24s to 265. For bonded Crushed Sugar 31s 6d to 31s 9d per cwt. paid for delivery.

FoßEMN.—There has been no public ale of any de scription of Foreign Sugar since this day week, and holders still manifest firmness. There has been less inquiry for yellow Havannah, but for the small parcels disposed of by private treaty former rates havo been obtained, and there is no inclination at present on the part of importers to press sales ; yellow is held for 20s to 235, and brown 18s to 19s per cwt ; there are, however, several purchasers rather under these rates. White has been taken sparingly. For all descriptions of Brazil former quotations are sus tained, and brown is wanted, principally by our re finers. Bahia has fetched 17s to 19s per cwt. Other sorts of Foreign are not much wanted, but in the value no variation has taken place. MoLASsES—This afternoon at public sale 132 puns 2 hhds, and 24 brls Demerara Molasses were nearly all taken in at 21s to 22s per cwt for good quality, being moderate rates. COYFEE.—There has been little inclination manifested by the home trade to purchase West India Coffee since last Tuesday. Although the market has been sparingly supplied, yet difficulty was experienced in obtaining previous rates for small parcels by private contract ; only 19 casks 17 brls were partly sold by public sale. This afternoon the demand for Ceylon Coffee was not so good, but holders were firm, and 1,140 bag s at public sale were taken in at the full value, viz., goo ordinary pale at 51s, and very good ordinary rather green 525. Of Manilla 1,200 bags sold, partly for home consumption and exportation at 36s to 39s per cwt. Mocha is offer ins privately at a further reduction in prices. rEA.—There has been little activity in the market, but black or green Tea cannot be purchased upon lower terms. Eor Congou former rates are insisted upon, common is 1 Id to 'lid, and good common Iled to Is per lb. In Pouchong there has, however, been a fair busi ness at 7d to 10d per lb sull a favourable opinion is en tertained towards this lsi id of tea. Hyson is unal tered in value ' • common is 2s 7d to 2s Bd, mid to good 2s 9d to 3s, sid supe:tor from 3s 2d to 4s 6d per lb.

Imperial and Gun powder are fully as high as last quoted, but there is a pause in the demand. For fine scented Orange Pekoe 3s 4d per lb is readily obtained. SPICES.—To-day Sumatra Pepper met with attention, and 2,299 bags at auction were all sold at full rates, half heavy clean selling at 2P to 20 ; fine light 2id to 2 1 d ; sea damaged, first class 21d to 2 d ; second ditto 2ed ; third class 2d ; ditto and repacked 2 e d. White was little called for, and 286 bags at public sale were nearly all taken in at 5d to 5d for good mid, and 4P for mid, being moderate rates. RUM, BRANDY, AND H O LLANDS.—IrepOrIera of Ja maica Rum for the must part are not inclined to sub mit to any further decline in prices, and the home trade are cautious in their proceeding ; small parcels have been sold, 28 t o 80 per cent overproof common and middling quality at 3s 6d to 3s Bd, better 32 to 36 over 3s 9d to 46 2d, fine 4s 4d to 5s per gallon.
