STOCKHOLM, Dzc. 20.—The important Bill of the new representative system has been thrown out by the peasantry by 17 against 18. The same is ex pected to take place with the burghers, who have, however, expressed themselves dissatisfied with the hurry in which it was passed by the two other classes. The subject may, however, be considered settled, though the cause assigned for the throwing out of the Bill is variously given. The nobles and clergy were unwilling to give up the constitution of their class, because they considered it more favourable to their interest, and dreaded the establishment of the threat ened peasant regiments. The peasant class, on the other hand, threw it out because they conceived that it rather circumscribed than enlarged their present power and influence, and they did not consider it quite liberal enough. The majority would probably have _been inclined to vote for it, if it had passed the other classes. The Ministers took up the Bill warmly in' their programme, and five of them spoke for it at the discussions by the Councillors of State. For this reason it is expected that all the Ministers will go out except theplinister for Foreign Affairs. It is thought that the assembling of the troops in and near Stockholm is a precautionary mea sure in the event of a wholly Conservative Ministry, being appointed. —Hamburgh Borsenhalle. HOLLAND.

THE RECENT MURDER IN P IRIS. The authorities have commenced a searching in vestigation into all the circumstances of the murder of the aged female, Madame Lebelle, and the attempted murder of Madame Ribault, both of the Rue Bourbon lo Chateau. It appears that after the assassin had gone away, Madame Ribault, whilst lying bleeding on the ground, teared that she would die before as sistance should arrive • she accordingly attempt e d to trace in blood on her chemise characters which would indicate the assassin, but, reflecting that they would not be legible, she, by a great effort, managed to crawl to a chimney-board, where she traced with her finger, dipped in blood, the letters 6 ° Commis de M. T—." These letters are very ir regular, but are perfectly legible; some others that follow the letter T are illegible. After this Madame Ribault began to make as much noise as her failing strength would allow, in order to attract assistance, and at last the door of Lira apartment was forced open. The courage displayed by this old lady was extraor dinarily great. For eight hours she remained lying on the ground in a pool of blood, and every hour be came weaker and weaker, and during all this time the corpse of her murdered companion was lying near her. After Madame Ribault had been stabbed by the as sassin in different places, he attempted to thrust a piece of cloth into her throat, but she succeeded in dragging it away. The cloth in question, a napkin, was found; it bore the marks of teeth and blood. It was be lieved that Madame Lebelle had been strangled ; but on examination of her throat by medical men, none of the contusions occasioned by strangulation could be discovered. In examining the mouth of the deceased, a bl a ck in was found, and after wards a piece of black ribbon was seen in the throat. By the aid of n at l• ruments this was with some difficulty pulled up, and to it was attached the cap which M a d ame Rib hadau t been had worn on the previous evening.

THE IMPERIAL BANK OF ENGLAND.—thi Honour the Master in Chancery Farrer has just delivered a written decision on the third list of contributories in this company, who, on shares being allotted them, paid Is. per share and took up the scrip. The case taken, and which was intended to govern the rest, was that of Mr. George Aspinall, of James-street, Liverpool, druggist, holder of 15 shares. Hi s Honour, in reviewing the evidence, states that he cannot find any facts to affect Mr. Aspinall except the prospectus in the original company, the application for shares, the letter of allotment of 15 shares, and the payment of is. per share. Notice of the first call was sent to Mr. Aspinall but he paid no attention to it, and no notices of other calls, or of any other proceedings were subsf:quently sent to him. He therefore proposed to exclude Mr. Aspinall from the list of contributories. This decision will have the effect of striking off the list all those shareholder; in the position of Mr. Aspinall, though it is intended to pursue other ease:: on the ground of there being stronger evidence against the parties, from the circumstance cf their having sold their ;=hares and done other acts which, it is alleged, identify them more closely with the company. AMIRACULOUS PRESERVATION.—The Rokeby, from the Mauritius, just arrived at the port of Bristol, encountered on her homeward voyage a fearful storm, in which the cap tain, the chief mate, and two of the crew were washed over board. The captain and mate perished, but by the reflux of the wave the men were again thrown upon the deck, and were thus almost miraculously preserved. The Rokeby was safely brought to her destination by the second mate. TEM RYE AND HASTINGS RAILWAY.- We are given to understand the line from Rye to Hastings, not being complete, there is no probability of its being opened for two months.—Sussex Express. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. DAILY NEWS.—There never was a time in which it was so incumbent on those nations, we had almost said, upon that nation which Providence has blessed with freedom and independence, to show how deeply and truly it sympathises with those of other countries who, in pursuit of that same constitutional and righteous freedom which has distinguished us, have failed of our good fortune and wanted an oppor tunity for securing it, and who now suffer the vengeance of despotism in so glorious a cause. The time is past, indeed, when England could in terfere by arms or menaces of arms, even to uphold the weak and redress the injured. With the mighty armies which now occupy and weigh upon the continent, it is plain that nothing but public opi nion can contend ; public opinion, becoming en lightened and unanimous in a great people, conscious of what it aims at, and possessed of men able and honest to accomplish their aims. All we can give is our share of light, of sympathy, and of adhesion to the great power of opinion. In giving this adhesion we can no longer count upon our Government. Ministers and diplomatists, even admitting that they feel liberal tendencies, have still the necessity of dis simulation imposed upon them. No Foreign Minister, even of England, durst brave a general alliance of all those powers in Europe who wield the mono poly of large armies and military resources. Russia, Austria, and Prussia have now re-entered into that holy alliance for the suppression of liberal tendencies which they so vainly tried thirty years ago, whilst France, its people bent on either order or disorder, and its rulers on petty squabbling for power, has neither the spirit nor the leisure to inter fere. In such a state of Europe circumspectness must perforce be the characteristic of the English Foreign Minister. And there are many who would stretch that circumspectness to the length of interested and feigned complicity and sympathy with the allied despotism which now prevails. But what ever may be the meanness obligato of Mi nisters, or of candidate Ministers, and of those organs of the press who abandon the public interest, sentiments, and cause, in order to become the mere mouthpieces of a man or a clique, there is no neces sity, but, on the contrary, deep impolicy, in the na ' don's flnging aside its naturally liberal sympathies, and affecting to worship a Haynau or revere a Schwartzenberg. The English public, which can not be suspected of being aggressive, or even pro pagandi9t, have no need of affecting adherence to despotism, or, like the Dutch in Japan treading on the cross in order to be allowed to trade, profess ourselves humble admirers of Haynau, and partial respecters of Nicholas, in order that we may be received into their conservative alliance. Let statesmen bow, and intrigue, and wriggle between liberalism and illiberalism—that is their profession— but let the British public follow a straightforward course, and repudiate those who have compromised the cause of liberty by their assaults upon property as well as on the just laws of society and of religion, as well as those who deem the world again ripe for the appli cation of brute force, and for the ignoring of every other principle of government save violence and fear. Whatever may betide the world, even if the whole con • tinent be destined to undergo the yoke of despotism, and if the "era of the Caesars" have indeed again returned, still principle and honour must prompt us to avow those sympathies which not all the dissi mulation and abnegation on our part would make the allied despots believe we are really without. The duration of military despotism, at least in central Europe, is an utter impossibility. And if armies have been made overwhelming by their numbers, they are rendered unmanageable by the same numbers. And ere many years elapse we shall have as many parties in them as there are in the people, whom they are destined to devour and to oppress. As to Germany, its revolution is but commencing. Its thirty yerrs of peace are over. And we see as little chance of the dualism of Austria and Prussia subjecting Germany by any new Bund at Dresden, as of the Frankfort Parliament subduing Austria and Prussia by votes and long speeches. The day is not distant when the popular party will be in Germany, where Court parties are, at present, in the ascendant. And it must not then be said that we encouraged or chimed in with any brutal system of repression and reaction. It is, therefore, with great pleasure that we beheld in our columns a long sub scription list, signed by the first houses concerned in the German trade, in favour of the victims of Hesse. If ever there was resistance constitu tionally made without blood, without disorder, without appeal to any bad passions, or the awakening of one subversive principle, it was that unanimous re sistance of the Hesians, before the unanimity of which the Elector of Hesse fled. Left to himself, the Elector, bad as he is, would not have quarrelled with his people ; and left to himself, he afterwards would have become reconciled to them and to the constitution. But the Elector was a cat's-paw in the hands of the Frankfort Diet to wound and provoke Prussia in the first instance, and then to humble her. Hassenpflug himself admitted that the resistance and flight of the Elector were solely done in obedience to the Diet. A more Machiavelian, il;egal, or unwar ranted interference or intrigue never took effect for the oppression of a brave and constitutional people. Had there remained one spark of heroism in the breast of Prussia, Hesse should have been defended in its con stitutional rights. But the meanness with which Hesse was abandoned is only to be equalled by the infamous and overbearing trickery with which that country has been oppressed. Prussia throughout acted the part of Judas, first supporting the resist ance of the Hessians, then preventing the Elector from compounding with that resistance, whilst its last act forms such a climax of treachery, that it will be indelibly written upon every German heart. At the last hour the Hessians were told that a Prussian and an Austrian Commissioner were coming to arrange their affairs. The Hessians of course looked to the Prussian as their protector and friend. He counselled them to submit, to acknowledge the autho rity of the Diet, and that in return they should have fair treatment and conditions. They submitted ; but on mentioning the conditions to the Austrian Com missioner, the latter exclaimed, " Who is this Prus sian—this Peucker ? He has no authority here. I am the representative of the Diet ; he is no thing, and has the power neither to promise aught n©r to protect any one." To such treacherous falsehood, and to such humiliating castigation and insult, did the Commissioner descend, in order that he might successfully play the part of Judas to the Hessians. Language is wanting to characterise such baseness. Meantime the officers of the Hessian army, and too many of the civilian functionaries of the electorate, are the victims of adherence to their con stitution. They are turned adrift, deprived of liveli hood, and of all hope save in revolution. A short month back and Prussia seemed to offer them a refuge ; for it was in the cause of Prussia, as well as of con stitutional freedom, that they were sacrificed. But Prussia itself has since then been as much betrayed and subdued as Hesse. The constitution is nullified, and the kingdom of the great Frederick laid at the feet of the Austrian Minister, who declares in a pro clamation that he magnanimously refrained from con quering and humiliating Prussia. The answer to whichfrom the Court of Berlin was an invitation to that Austrian Minister to become its guest. This sufficiently proves that Prussia offers no retreat to honourable men and constitutionalists. The Hessian officers must become exiles not merely from the land of their allegiance, but from Germany, over which the united eagles of despotism irresistibly reign, and where in consequence nothing but servility can be tolerated. We trust, however, that the subscriptions of the Germans and the English will suffice to secure to these noble victims a pittance and a refuge, until such time as the present tyranny be overthrown. LAUNCH OF THE MARION MACINTYRE. A most interesting event in the annals of ship building took place on Saturday last, at the building yard of Messrs. Jordan and Getty, Sefton-street, by the lauching of a beautiful barque called the Marion Macintyre. More than ordinary interest was excited from the fact that the principle on which this vessel is built is almost entirely new ; but one experimental craft, the Excelsior, having been previously constructed upon it, under a patent obtained for combining the strengthening unity of wood and iron. The Excelsior was built for Josias Booker, Esq•, to trade to the West India islands, and the success attendant upon her voyage outward drew to the scene of the launch hundreds of merchants and others interested in the trade and commerce of the port; an d, at the hour announced, there could not have been fewer persons present than a thousand, amongst whom were many of the fairer portion of creation. Almost punctually to the hour, twelve o'clock, the launch t oo k place amidst the usual demonstrations on such oc cas i ons, the ceremony of christening being performed by Mrs. J. Macintyre. The Mari on M acintyre is about 300 tons register. She is 117 feet i n l ength (builders' measurement, kee l and . fore-rake), with a b eam of 22 feet 5 inches, whic h annuships is carried well down to hor bilge, giviug her great bearing, and no t i nterrupting her well rounded lines, fore and aft. H er stern, which is g r a cefully ornamented with carved work, sornevvhat approxi mates to that known as the Aberdeen clippers Aft she is (qua!ly cle an . O n h er stern is a bold carving of the Royal Arms of S cot l and, surrounded by re lieved foliage work, running to the quarters. The peculiarity of this vessel is, that the whole of her framework is of angle iron, and, where extraordi nary strength is required, it is rivetted back to back, forming what is known as T iron. Diago nal pieces (iron) commence, crossing each other amid ships, and run oppositely, fore and aft, connecting every " timber," while exterior stringers are car ried to form a circle, so as to prevent the possibility of her either " hogging" or " breaking her back." The planking is most ingeniously attached to this framing, and, while the tension (4' iron is brought fully into play, the resistance of woad is equally effective. Her ceiling is all put down with screw bolts, so that it can ba removed when required, and thus full access is given to examine relative to cor rosion, &c. She has a flush deck, with a poop cabin, and is neatly, ,but not expensively, fitted. Though she had in her nearly a hundred tons of ballast when launched, she sat light and graceful on the water as a swan, and looked as lofty and majestic as a vessel of double her tonnage. Immediately after the launch the company ad journed to the " mould-room," where a splendid dejeuner was provided by Messrs. Morrish and Feeney, and a more elegant, tasteful, and substantial display we never before witnessed. The room was appropriately and gaily decorated with models, flags, and other effective devices. The company present numbered upwards of three hundred, and, with the workmen and others regaled below, ample provision must have been made for six hundred people.—Liver: pool Albion. LONDON AS IT IS TO BE IN 185] (From Punch's Almanach.) From Mr. tlaycoch's Diary.—April at the Eastern Counties Station—after a miserable journey—no porters of course—and had to stand sentry over luggage for an hour before cabs enough could be procured. Got 'em at last, and drove to Heydey's in Baker-street. Couldn't get up . to the door for cabs setting down, loaded with all sorts of foreigners, and all sorts of ridiculous travelling caps and cloaks. The lobby full of foreign luggage, and the house full of foreign men and women. Mr. Heydey in a great state of indignation, and no wonder. That son of his had asked everybody who had been civil to him in his travels (old Hey day has been ass enough to encourage the boy in running abroad on all occasions), to come to his fa ther's whenever they visited London. They have all visited London for this cock and bull Exhibition, and, they've all come to his father's, of course. Old Hey day doesn't talk any foreign lingo, and of course couldn't explain matters; so the foreigners had got themselves settled, and the house is full of them from area to attic. I shan't stay here among 'em, and so I've told Mrs. H.—Fred is to look us out a lodging to •morrow. From Fred's Diary, May 2.—Got a lodging at last—two rooms—at 10/. a week ; thanks to the fight I made. The governor and I sleep in the sitting room, which smokes. He has the sofa, and I have a shake down on:the table. My mother and Mary have the bed-room, which is rather high up. The house is rather full. There is a Chinese family down stairs, with four daughters in one room. They are perpetually making tea, and live upon ducks and rice. I see the funniest little trotter-cases outside the door of a morning—l suppose belonging to the Celestial young ladies. lam told they inquired a good deal at first after birds'-nests (of which they make soup at home), and had a great many brought them by the little boys of the neighbourhood. It appears they were not of the right sort for eating. The Persian Prince on the first floor is going. He had one of his attend ants courbashed or flogged yesterday, and the man has got a warrant against him for an assault. The North American Indians, in the kitchen, had their dog feast yesterday, and got jolly on the "fire water," as they call gin. I don't believe they really intended to scalp the knife-boy ;it was only their fan ; but he has gone this morning, in an awful funk. However, it's very pleasant, if we' could only get any thing to eat. It serves the governor right for not staying quietly at Heyday's. I was there last night, and we had a little quiet " punting." I was in luck and nearly broke the bank. I give the Count and Leginski their revenge to-night. From Mr. Haycock's Journal.—lt is as I suspected. That swindling Frenchman is fed at my expense. The landlady saw him leave the house to-day with a turkey he was trying to tie up in a dirty pocket handkerchief. I can't trust Mary. She thinks the vagabond's a hero and a martyr—she says. A Few Days Later.—l will go home next week, if Igo alone. 1 can't stand any more of the Exposition. After three hours of it, I lost Mrs. H. and Mary, and got into a snug corner, upon a pile of hearth rugs, and fell fast asleep. I suppose nobody saw me; for when I woke, the place was dark and shut up. I nearly broke my neck among the absurd cranks and things before I could find a door, and then it was an hour before I could make a policeman outside hear, and then it was another hour before they could find a key to let me out. I was tired to death, and went to the cab- stand out side the park entrence, to hail a cab. There wasn't a driver on his box, and when I went up to the first on the rank and rapped at the window, supposing the fellow had got inside for a snooze, a respectable looking elderly gentleman popped out his head in his nightcap, and blew me up for disturbing his night's rest, and said he " wondered what the police were about, not allowing people to sleep quiet in their own apartments." I passed on to the next, and there was another man, in his nightcap and dressing-gown, putting his hoots out of the window, and begging the driver to " rap at the door at eight, and bring him his hot water." Fred tells me they are regularly let out for the night or week, and declares that he saw placards, with " Lodgings for a single man," on a pole stuck oat of the top of a Hansom, and " One bad to let," hung from the window of a mangy-looking night Clarence ! I suppose people who have no objection to a double • bedded room are accommodated in the omnibuses. JERSEY ROYAL COURT. MISS JULIA RUSH V. CARDINAL WISEMAN. Our readers will doubtless remember this affair, which came before the Royal Court on the sth inst. The following is the mandate of justice in which Miss Julia Rush specified her demands on, and sued for compensation from, Cardinal Wiseman. " Upon the remonstrance made to justice by Miss Julia Rush, showing that in the year 1848 the com plainant, who professes the Roman Catholic religion, having formed the design of establishing a religious house called a convent, wrote to the very Rev. Nicholas Wiseman, Doctor of Divinity, Bishop of Melipotamus, to obtain his approbation and authority to put this pro ject in execution, and in the month of March, of the same year, she received from him a letter, as follows: " Dear Madame—l have at present time only to say that I approve most sincerely of your pions design to establish a religious house in Jersey, and I depute the Rev. Mr. Cunningham, ecclesiastical superior, for the purpose of carrying out your plan. W hen the fine weather comer, I shall do myself the pleasure of person ally visiting the community. " Yours, very sincerely in Christ, " MTS. Butler.' (Signed) "N. WISEMAN. "That in consequence the said complainant arranged with the Rev. John Cunningham, who at that time ofli cieted at the chapel called St. Peter and St. Mary, who took upon himself the choice of a ground proper for the election of this edifice, and recommended a house and garden belonging to Mr. George De La Perrelle and adjoining the property belonging to the said chapel; that the said complainant having approved of this choice, and the purchase price having been regulated with the said Sieur De La Perrelle, the acquisition was made, and she gave to the said Mr. Cunningham the sum of 1001. sterling to pay the consideration in money, which was to effect the contract of purchase; that sub ecquently the said complainant paid to Mr. Peter Bourke, who had undertaken to build upon the said ground the house and edifices necessary for the said convent, the sum of 3921. sterling money of Great Britain; that these buildings were commenced when the said Rev. John Cunningham died; that in the month of March, 1849, she learned that Mr. Michael Cunningham, sole collateral heir to the said deceased Rev. John Cunningham, his brother, had by contract dated 3d October, 1848, made over and sold in perpetuity to the Very Rev. Nicholas Wiseman, Doctor in Divinity, to the Rev. George Talbot and to the Rev. Jeremiah Donovan, all the estates which had belonged to the said Rev. J. Cunningham, and amongst others the house and garden which the said deceased had taken and acquired from the said Mr. George De La Perrelle, and in which garden the construction of the said convent had been begun; that the said complainant was so much the more surprised that this property had been thus transferred, without reserve, to the said Revs. Wiseman, Talbot, and Donovan, as sho had understood it was to be transferred to the said Revs. Wiseman and Talbot, and to the said complainant herself, conjointly and all together; that the said complainant has expended the considerable sums above mentioned for the estab lishment of the said convent, in consequence of the ap probation given to this establishment by the said Rev. Nicholas Wiseman; who had deputed the said Rev. J. Cunningham, ecclesiastical superior, to put into execu tion the project of the said complainant, but that since the said Very Rev. Nicholas Wisetnan had withdrawn this approbation, so that the buildings in erection have been discontinued. That the said Very Rev. Nicholas Wiseman in withdrawing, for unfounded motives, from the said complainant the above-mentioned authorization has acknowledged that the said complainant ought to be reimbursed the:money she has expended fur the ab ove object, as asserted in one of his letters addressed to the said complainant in the following terms: " Mr. Cunningham, whose memory is to dear to you, was the person who, as you yourself informed me, had the property, &c., entirely in his own name. I have disbursed payment, &c., for the legal transactions, and money has been paid fur the convent, borrowed on the security or liability of the priests. Moreover, you can not make further advance to complete the buildings.

" That notwithEtanding t his p ositive assurance, the said complainant has not been able to obtain reimburse ment of w h a t s h e has advanced.

On Tuesday last, a communica tion from the Chancellor of the Exchequer, through the medium of Mr. 11. J. Baillie, M.P„ came under consideration ; and we understand the proposal has been unanimously ap proved of. It must still receive the sanction of the county, but there is little doubt that the heritors generally will assent to the recommendation of their committee. The Chancellor of the Exchequer offers a grant of one-half of the expense, and to advance the other half on the principle of the Drainage Act, at 6 1 / 2 per cent., to be raised by assess ment on the county. The town will thus secure a handsome suspension bridge free of cost, and the public will have the benefit of communication free of toll. The Chancellor of the Exchequer has throughout the whole affair acted with great liberality, and is entitled to the thanks of the northern corn munity.— invernen Courier. Doctor of Divinity, that he is to appear before justice on the day which shall be assigned, that he may be con demned to pay to the said c , .implainant the said total sum of 492/ sterling, British money, with interest from the dates of the respective payments made by the said complainant to the day of reimbursement, and that he be besides condemned to pay her the sum of 1001 ster ling, by way of indemnification for the expenses to which she is exposed. Which shall be effected by the Viscount, or by one of the Sheriff's officers of justice, under fine of 60 sons, and all costs, losses, prejudices, and damages which may ensue—reasons excepted. Given at St. Helier, this 15th day of November, 1850. "THOMAS LE BRETON, High Bailiff." Mr. Advocate GODFRAY then asked that time might be granted him to write to Dr. Wiseman. Mr. Advocate LE SUEUR said he had had time enough to write to him since the warrant was served on the 16th of last November. Mr. Advocate GODFRAY replied that a certain time was necessary to correspond respecting this affair, for according to the mandate of justice, the other trustees ought to be summoned as well as r. Wiseman. The BAILIFF said the Court would grant a delay until the first day of next term. Jersey British Press, Dec. 31. PRICES OF SHARES IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM- PANIES' STOCK. From the Official List. PUBLISHED EVERY TUESDAY AND FRIDAY EVENING. LONDON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 3. 70 TNT-6'I I OCE. ISALZUK.S. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Jan. 4. (Before Mr. Commissioner GOULBURN) IN THE BANKRUPTCY OF NASD. AND NEALE-TIIR REIGATE BANK. In this case the bankrupt, Thomas Neale, applied for his certificate through his counsel, Mr. Bagley, but Ilis HoNouu adjourned the meeting until the result of a claim against the separate estate of Nash made by the assignees of the Maritime Assurance Com pany could be ascertained. - A bankrupt named Corven, who kept what is termed " a cheap shop" in the Hampstead-road, appled for his certificate. Corven was a baker, and undersold all his neighbours. Beginning with a small capital, he failed considerably in debt, with nothing for his creditors but the lease of the premises, value 5001. The certificate was suspended for two years. Mr. Hilleary appeared for the assignees, and re sisted the concession of protection, which was not granted. 1 POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. On Saturday Joseph Bassett was brought before the Lord Mayor in the custody of Haydon, the officer, charged with having robbed his employers, Messrs. Joseph and Albert Savory, of Nos. 47 and 44, Corn hill, of three clocks and a great number of musical boxes. Mr. Bush, of the firm of Bush and Mullens, at tended for the prosecution, and said that, for the pur pose of making the case more clear to his Lordship, he should briefly state the chief circumstances. The prisoner had been hired by the late Mr. Thomas Cox Savory, brother to those who constituted the present firm, and a partner in the house, and had been treated most confidentially by his employers, having been ' appointed to the superintendence of the whole of the business of the premises No. 54. A circumstance, however, occurred which caused suspicion of the , honesty of the confidential servant, and it was ascer tained in a very short time that a large number of musical boxes had been stolen, and that pieces of wood, made into the form and size of the boxes, had been substituted for them. The p r i soner was , w h en th e I, robbery was disclosed to the establishment, appre hended, and Haydon, the officer, would state sufficient 1 to justify a remand until a more complete investiga tion could be made. Mr. John Thomson, shopman and cleik to Messrs. Savory, at their residence, No. 47, in Cornhill, said— I went by the direction rily employers on the 11th of December to their warehouse, No. 54, to assist in taking stock, and I saw the prisoner there, and I entered the stock in a book which I now produce. The prisoner called the articles out. I entered under the head of musical boxes about 169, and I also en tered a number of clocks. The stock in No. 54 con sists entirely of clocks and musical boxes. I produce • two cases which were supposed to be musical boxes. These are empty cases which should contain musical boxes. The handwriting on them is the prisoner's. I produce two other papers or covers, containing blocks of wood, the covers made to resemble the real leases. There are three of these blocks of wood here. After this taking of the stock on the 11th I returned to No. 47, the principal shop. Tne next time I went to No. 54 was last night. I went then to take stock according to directions, and I found all these things in the state in which they now are. lam satisfied in my own mind as to the state in which the stock was on the 11th of December. On taking stock last night I find the deficiency between the 11th of December and the 3d of January to be in small musical boxes, 40, value 561. 14s. • in large musical box e s, six, value 321. Os. 6e1., which, together with thu deficiency of four clocks, value 171. 195., gave a total deficiency of l 06/. 13s. 6d. The LORD MAYOR—You say you entered stock to the prisoner's calling out on the 11th of Decem ber ? Witness—Yes, to a certain extent. The LORD MAYOR—Did you ever know of any stock being in this case (pointing to one of the empty. cases) ? Witness—Never. The LORD MAYOR—It is not the practice of the house to have dummies on the shelves ? Witness— It is not. The LORD MAYOR—These, then, might, for any anything you know, have been there on the 11th of December ? Witness—Yes. The LORD MAYOR—I would, in the case of taking stock, have directed that the person calling out should not be the person who had the stock under his care. Did the prisoner give security to his employers upon . going into his situation ? Witness—l do not know. I have given security to them. Mr. Savory (one of the partners) here said, the prisoner did not give any security. He had been taken by his late brother, and great confidence was reposed in him. The prisoner (to the witness)—What clocks are missing? Witness—A marble clock, at 6 guineas; a foreign bracket, at 61.; one foreign alarm, at 505.; and another at 635. The prisoner —They were right, I know, on the 11th of December. Mr. Wrathall, also a shopman in the service of Messrs. Savory, said—l entered the service of my employers in February. I then was at No. 9, Cornhill. I am now on duty at No. 54, Cornhill, into which , premises I went on the 18th of December, and I re main there in charge of the stock. Tile prisoner was there, and I received the stock from him. I received Ino book from him. I kept my own books. I see the things produced. I never saw such articles as dum mies or empty boxes on the premises. I discovered these (pointing to the pieces of wood in the shape of music -boxes) myself, when taking them out of the window to show a customer. I think it was on Fri day, the 20th of December, I took one from the win -1 dow, and found that it was a piece of wood. From that discovery I considered it necessary to have the stock taken altogether. The sum of my discovery was three dummies and three empty cases. The LORD MAYOR—What did you do after making this discovery on the 20th of December ? Witness—l mentioned it on the following morning to my fellow-assistant, who advised me to represent it to Mr. Sansom, who is at No. 47, Cornhill, in order to have stock taken. I went, not to Mr. Sansom, but to Mr. M'Culloch, the cashier, and told him, ;roin what I had seen, I wished to have the stock taken. I gave the cashier notice to that effect on Saturday. The prisoner, upon being asked whether he wished to ask the witness any questions, replied in the negative. Michael Haydon, the officer, was then sworn. He said—l apprehended the prisoner at No. 2, Milford grove, Old Kent-road, in a house occupied by him and his wife and five children. I told him I was an officer, and that I called at the instance of his late employers, Messrs. Savory and Co., to make inquiries respecting some musical boxes and clocks that had been stolen from their warehouse under circum stances which rendered it necessary that I should ask him a few questions about it. Ile was very much agitated, and could scarcely speak. At last he said, " I know nothing about them. You are welcome to search my house. You will find nothing here." I searched the place, and received from the prisoner's wife the two duplicates produced for clocks. I asked him what answer I should consider he made to my inquiries, and I told him that, in justice to him self, if he was innocent, he ought to clear the matter up. He then burst out crying, and said, " I took some of the things ; God Almighty knows it was from want I did it. Pray intercede for me, and say what you see here," and he looked round the room, which certainly was in a wretched condition. He continued, "I never could have done it if I had been batter paid. I have a wife and five children, and but 11.8 s. a week, which is not sufficient to keep them." The prisoner—l also said I had a small commis. sion of fourpence in the pound upon what I sold. Haydon—There was not a word said by the pri soner about a commission. He distinctly said that all he had from his employers was 28s. a week. Mr. Bush at once proved, and the prisoner did not deny the fact, that the prisoner had his board and a commission upon all he sold, as well as the 28s. a week from his employers. The LORD MAYOR said he was glad that such an explanation had taken place, and remanded the pri soner till next week. GUILDHALL. A respectable-looking man, about thirty years of age, answering to the name of William Daraele,'but who has at various times gone under the names of " Thomas liittnee and W. D. Boase, highly re spectable gentlemen living in Cornwall, was brought up before Alderman Lawrence, charged with uttering forged mining shares. Mr. Thomas Fuller, mining sharebroker, of 48, Threadneedle-street, said that be received a letter from the prisoner purporting to come from a Mr. W. D. Boase, the purser of the Wheal Mary Anne, near Liskeard, in Cornwall, stating that he (prisoner) had some shares in that mine to sell, and desiring him (witness) to dispos3 of them for him. He (prisoner), in his letter, referred witness to another broker as to his known respectability. Prisoner said he wanted 501. per share. Witness wrote to him, saying he would dispose of the shares as soon as he (prisoner) should be able to send him the transfer. Witness re ceived a letter in answer enclosing the transfer off' the shares, purporting to be signed by i\ir. Bosse. Wit ness sold the shares for the prisoner, and sent the transfer into the country, but having since found out that it was a forgery, he had made good the shares to the purchaser. Witness called at the Old Bell, in Holborn, to see the prisoner, but he was not within, and he (wit ness) paid th 3 landlord of the house 501., who after wards paid it to the prisoner. Prisonf-r had given in struction to the landlord to get cash only for the shares, and when witness offered a cheque it was refused, and cash was ultimately paid. Mr. Bosse, of the Wheal Mary Anne Mine, had been communi cated with, and his reply was that the shares were forged, and that the prisoner Daniels had committed the forgery, as the transfer was in his (prisoner's) handwriting. William Bunyer, of the Old Bell Hotel, said he knew the prisoner. He iiad frequewed his house lately rind represented himself as Mr. Boase, and also as a friend of an old customar of v,itness'g. Witness received the 501. from the last witness, and paid it over to the prisoner. He saw the prisoner write the receipt he now produced. It was signed " William B. &Else." Alderman LAWRENCE, on comparing the receipt and the letter alleged to have been written by the prisoner to ➢Tr. Fuller, said that he thought they were both evidently written by the same person, and from the last witness's statement there could be no doubt but that the prisoner was the man. Daniel May, a detective officer, said there were several other cases against the prisoner, and that he only wanted a little time to bring witnesses up from the country to prove them against the prisoner. He had also been given to understand that prisoner had lately (about six weeks ago) been married to a young girl in the country, and that he also had another wite alive at the time. The other name the prisoner had adopted, " Thomas Kittner," was the name of a gen tleman who acted as treasurer to the above mine, and well known in the mining share market. Under all these circumstances he applied for a remand, in order to collect the necessary evidence to substantiate the charge against the prisoner. Alderman LAWRENCE then remanded the prisoner till next week, and he was accordingly removed from the bar. Mr. Alderman HUMPLIERY begged to acknowledge the following further donations for Jane Wilbred :- 13s. Gd. subscribed by " Gentlemen who visit the par lour of the Prince of Orange, Gravesend ;" 10s. from " A few sympathisers at Brixham ;" and ss. from " H. S." MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Henry Harwood was charged before Mr. Hardwick with a burglary in the house of Mrs. Cheratt, No. 24, Soho-square. James Booth said he was coachman to Mrs. Cheratt, who occupied the whole of the house in Soho-square, with the exception of the shop, which was let to a person named Newman. As his mistress was an in valid, and very timid, he had been requested to sleep in the middle drawing-room, where a considerable quantity of plate was usually kept. About two o'clock that morning he was awakened by a noise, and on looking about he saw the front drawing-room door, which usually stood open, pulled to. Being surprised at this he sat up in bed, and in a minute or two after wards he saw the door leading to the landing opened by a strange man. He got out of bed and seized the intruder. A struggle ensued, and the man made to wards the window in the front drawing-room, and jumped out on the portico. Witness followed, and seized the ma❑ again, and called loudly for the police. The man got from his grasp, and tumbled off the portico, head foremost, on the foot pavement. Wit ness then heard a voice say, " I have got him, sir." On going down stairs witness found it was the police constable, who had been attracted by the noise, and who came up just in time to secure the prisoner. Witness had his ahirt torn to pieces in the struggle with the prisoner. Thomas West, police-constable, said he heard a cry of " Police." He saw the front window open, and a man jump out, followed by another man. He wit• nessed the struggle between the persons on the top of the portico, and he saw the prisoner fall off on the pave ment. The prisoner appeared much hurt, and very faint. Witness took him to the station-house, and on searching him be found only a few Lucifer matches. Witness went back to the house to ascertain in what way the prisoner had obtained an entrance. He - found that the prisoner had climed up the portico, and had got in at the first floor window, there being marks of fingers on the top of the portico, which left no doubt that this was the way an entrance had been effected. The prisoner denied being the man. Mr. HARDWICK complimented the coachman for the courage he had displayed in this dangerous affair, and them fully committed the prisoner for trial. CLERKENWELL. henry Ilendall, dentist and chiropodist, of No. 14, Brunswick-square, was finally examined, charged by Elizabeth Reed, aged 18, his servant, with having violated her under circumstances of an extraordinary nature. The prosecutrix, it appeared, entered the service of the accused in October last, as servant of all work, an .d remained there until last Friday week. On that day the wife of the prisoner left home, and during her absence the witness went to make her mistress's bed in the upper part of the house, and, whilst thus engaged the prisoner entered the apartment, locked and bolted the door, and endeavoured to throw her on a bed and effect his purpose. She struggled and re • sisted him until he tripped her up, when he accom plished his object. She did not mention what had taken place to her mistress, or to any one else, until the following Tuesday. She then informed a Mrs. Henson, with whom she was in the habit of lodging 'when out of a situation, who accompanied her to the 'residence of Mr. Rendall, and asked him what recom pence he could make for the iej cry he had done, when he indignantly repelled the accusation in the presence of his wife, saying they wanted to extort money from him. They then came to this court for a warrant, and were referred by the magistrate to the police, and she gave him in custody for the felony, and prose cuted him on Wednesday last before Mr. Tyrrwhitt, when the court was crowded to suffocation. The pro secutrix, whose appearance is foreign, gave her evi dence with an appearance of artless simplicity, and, at the termination of the hearing, the prisoner was or dered to find heavy and responsible security for his appearance on this day. A report of the proceedings having appeared in the newspapers, led to a suspicion that the prosecutrix bad been in the habit of trumping up such charges against her masters, and numerous letters have been forwarded to the office of the !prisoner's professional adviser, Mr. Humphreys, exposing her conduct. Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, now attended for the prisoner, and the following extraordinary examination ensued : She having been sworn, Mr. Clarkson said—Now, Miss Elizabeth Reed, how long i 3 it since you last saw me in a a police-court ? Witness-1 don't recollect. Mr. Clarkson—Come come, Miss Wed, refresh your memory, or I will for you. Did you not two years ago make a similar charge against Mr. Wil hams, of Regent's park, at Marylebone Police-court ? Prosecutrix (after considerable hesitation) admitted such to be the fact, and that she had made similar charges against others. Mr. Clarkson said he could prove that in five in stances • adding, that from th e age of 15 she had exhibited charges of that description, under circum stances that would disgust our readers. He remem bered very well the case of Mr. Williams, and bad his brief, with notes then before him. The prosecu trix denied facts which could be incontestably con• firmed by Mr. Williams on the occasion referred to. That charge was dismissed. Mr. Clarkson--P ra y, Miss Reed, did you some time ago live in Belfast ?—She said yes. Mr. Clarkson —Did you not charge a gentleman there with rape ? Prosecutrix—l did not tell Mr. Dennison (her then master) so. Mr. Clarkson—Come now, be careful, Miss Reed. Did you not tell Mr. Dennison that a gentleman whom you had so charged had given you 201. to come to England? Prosecutrix—l did not tell him so. Mr. Dennison said such was the fact, and he could prove it. In answer to further questions, she admitted that she charged a man named Gooseberry, a coffeeshop keeper, with rape not long ago, and that a similar accusation she made against a Mr. Stowe ; that she had been charged with lying and other misconduct. Mr. Clarkson said he could call witnesses to prove that the witness was altogether devoid of credit ; and, under the circumstances, he submitted there was not sufficient to warrant a committal for trial. Mr. TYxwnITT remarked that a magistrate was involved in a difficult and delicate position. The prosecutrix had sworn to the fact, and that, coupled with the evidence of Dr. Robertson, the house-sur geon of the Royal Free Hospital, who said the offence had been effected, induced him to feel in duty bound to send the case before a jury. Mr. Clarkson said he must bow to the decision of the bench, and applied to have his client bailed. The worthy MAGISTRATE said, from what bad come out that day his opinion was far from adverse to the prisoner, whom he would liberate on the secu rity of one housekeeper in 50/., and his own recog n•izance in 1001., to take his trial at the ensuing Old Bailey sessions. The necessary security being taken, the prisoner le ft with his friends. ELY MARKETS. Le trade to-day is steady, but F. d. 7. d. Do.

Oa the whole, th•refere, the transactions have been to a vary limited amount; but prices can scarcely be said to have suffered any further reduction. From Ireland the imports of Oats :aid oatmeal into Liverpool and Runcorn are this week but very moderate, whilst of other articles they are exceedingly scanty; and from our own coast there are no arrivals worth naming. From abroad, however, con siderable supplies of wheat and flour have again been re ceived, with a fair quantity of beans. At our market this morning a continuance of inactivity prevailed, caused by an indisposition o the part of the dealers and bakers to increase their ',:zs of any article, and an equal reluctance on the part 0 holders to force sales by more than a very moderate c ocession in prices, and no material variation from the currency of this day se'ai night can consequently be noted. GLASGOW CATTLE MARLET, JAN. 2.—The numbers at our market to-day were —oxen, 604; sheep, 1,768. As the number of cattle was not large, they were in good demand, and sales were easily effected. Best ox beef 47e, current from 43s to 455, inferior from 30s to 40s per cwt, sinking the offal; a few left unsold. Owing to the small supply of sheep, sales were briskly effected, and in favour of the seller. Best aged wethers 53d, current 4ii to sd, inferior 31d to 4d per lb, sinking the offal; all sold. Pigs dull, 345. Fed calf up now to 56s and to 60s per cwt. MONTROSE, JAN. 3.—We had a full market to-day, but there was not much corn business done. Prices looking down.

CORK, JAN, 3. We have to report some further arrivals of foreign grain, which, added to the large importations previously announced, have bad the effect of depressing still further the trade in foreign wheat. The stocks of this grain are now unprecedentedly large, and to this cause may be mainly ascribed the depression in the article which now exists. The supply of home grain has been exceeding'," moderate, the receipts for the week being only:—Wheat. 234 brls, at 17s to 21s per brl; barley, 941 brls, at lOs 6d to 12s 4d per brl; oats, 3,396 brie., at 8s to lOs 6d per brl. With the small quantity of grain arriving to mar. ket we have little or no vcriation to report in the value of any article of produt In foreign wheat, as we have before remarked, but hi, business has been done, although prices are manifestly, . favour of the purchaser. In prepared barley the few sactions that have taken place have been at last week's rates. Oats can scarcely be said to have maintained their value. Tin , sales that have been made were but to a moderate ex tent, though some slight concession has been made by holders. We quo:e the value of black, 9s 6d to 9s 9d; that of white, 10s 6d to 10s 9d per barrel. The flour trade has been very dull and lifeless at last week's prices. The business passing in Indian corn is on the most re stricted and retail scale, but without any quotable alte ration in value. Indian meal continues totally neglected. Barrels.
