iThe following appeared in our Fourth Edition of last night :—] FRANCE. The Siecle announces that it is about to publish a romance from the pen of the Emperor NAPOLEON. M. PAUL Lacaoix, in the following letter to M. Louis DENOYEES, explains the history of the MSS. : " My Dear Friend,—You have not forgotten the dis covery of autograph MSS. of Napoleon Bonaparte, which were found at Lyons lying in dust and forgetful ness from the time that the pupil of Brienne had be come general of the army of Italy. These MSS., which were comprised in the inheritance of Cardinal Fesch, unole o f N a poleon, and Archbishop of Lyons, be long unfortunately no longer to France; but an au thentic copy has been given to me to make what use I please of it. I bestow the copy ou the Siecle, which may publish the principal parts, with all necessary proofs of their authenticity. Among the manuscripts of the Em peror's youth appear a Corsican romance and several tales, which, without being chefs d'oeuvre, show real power of imagination and originality of style, as the readers of the Siecle will soon be able to judge. It cannot be denied that the name of the author of these works con fers upon them immense interest, and we feel assured that no contemporaneous publication is better calculated to excite public attention. (signed) " PAUL LACROIX." GERMANY. Accounts from Dresden of the 20th inst. state that the conferences still continue. The following from Berlin, of the 21st, is given by the Siecle •—" The system of M. DE MANTRUFE:EL appears to be coming to a close, and the slightest in cident may cause its fall; for it cannot be concealed that a great discontent prevails on the subject of the retrograde march of our policy in all its branches. If the present Ministry be overthrown, it is a Cabinet of the Right, and not of the Left, which will come into power. M. DE RADOWITZ, as far as regards the present state of affairs, evidently belongs to the latter. The discontent now felt is caused less by the difficulties with Austria and the abandonment of the policy of the Union, than by the irresolution and hesitation evinced in all the acts of the present Ministry. The KING and the Court have all their sympathies on the side of the Holy Alliance, and, unless extraordinary events should arise, our domestic policy will have as its principal basis a co-operation with Austria and Russia. Count D'ARMIN BROCHENBOURG will be the necessary successor of M. DE MANTEUFFEL, and every one is acquainted with the principles which guide that statesman." A letter from Berlin, of the 22d, says :—" One of the feat in which may he seen a symptom of reconciliation between the two German powers is the approaching evacuation of Hol stein by the Austrian troops. 3,000 men have already taken the road towards Bohemia, via Msdgeburg and Dresden, and the Prussian corps of observation on the frontiers of Holstein is to be shortly broken up. There will only, it is said, re main an Austro-Prussian corps of 8,000 men to occupy Hamhurgh and the neighbourhood. The action which Prince ALBERT, the husband of Queen VICTORIA, had brought against the Treasury of ihe Duchy of Saxe-Gotha on the subject of the rente of 25,00011. coming to him from the succession of his mother,-has been decided in his favour. From the matrimonial conventions made between Prince ALBERT and the Queen VICTORIA, and which have been submitted to the judges, it appears, that in the event of the Ducal Crown of S &Ice-Gotha passing to the descendants of Prince ALBERT (his eldest brother the reigning Duke is unmarried), it will he the second sun of the QUEEN that will succeed to it. Tile duchy would in that case devolve to the Royal Family of Great Bri,ain. The situation of affairs in Electoral Hesse does not appear to improve. The military tribunals continue to condemn civil functionaries and members of the Commission of the States. The attitude of the inhabitants appears to he still hostile to the govern ment of the ELECT(ta A letter from Munich, of March 20, says—" In the sitting of the Chamber o! .. Deputies to-day, it was resolved to take into consideration a pro position of Prince WALLENSTEIN, that documents relative to the question of Elector Hesse and to the intervention of the Bavarian troops in the Electorate shall be produced by the Government. The discus sion of this affair will cause some agitation ; but it pill not, it is stated, result in the impeachment of Ministers, as desired by the Prince. The Cabinet has declared that it does not recognise the right of the Chamber to interfere in acts of the Government which do not, concern the constitution. But the Chamber is determined to oppose that pretension, as, if agreed to, it would remove from its control not only all questions of foreign policy, but also the German question. rAt. The Tuscan Monitor of the 17th inst. publishes a dtctee of the GRAND DUKE, regulating the price of pa , sports and permissions to foreigners wishing to reside in Tuscany. Henceforth governors of cities, prPf-cts, and sub-prefects, are alone privileged, to grant such permissions. Should a foreigner wi.h to chAnge his residence he must provide himself with a fresh passport. A double tax is to be imposed on any foreigner neglecting to comply with the new regulations.

PORTSMOUTH, MARCH 25.—The Fairy Royal yacht, Captain Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, embarked the Queen and Court at Cowes this afternoon about two, and brought them to this port ander the usual ceremo nies of saluting, &c., of the fleet and the garrison bat tery. Her Majesty was received on disembarking in the Clarence-yard, Gosport, by the naval and military chiefs and a guard of honour, and left at three o'clock by special train, under the charge of Mr. Stovin, the manager of the South-Western Railway Company, for London. The Argus steam-sloop has been masted to-day. She is to be brought forward as an advance steamer. The Birkenhead iron steam troop-frigate, Master- Commander Salmond, has completed coaling, and will shortly convey troops to Halifax.

The Caradoc steam-vessel is expected to be out of the bands of the shipwri g h ts on the 3d of April, and will then be commissioned by Lieutenant Derriman, at present borne on the books of the Fisgard to superintend fittings of the vessel, as she s intended for the mail packet ser vice on the Mediterranean station in conjunction with the Banshee.

Her Majesty's steam-frigate Retribution, Captain Frederick Warden, arrived at Devonport on Tuesday, having been detached from Commodore Martin's squad ron for the purpose of conveying troops, &c., to the Cape of Good Hope. The Retribution parted from the squadron on the morning of the 20th inst. at sea. Com modore Martin had ex tended his cruise this time as far as Cape Finisterre. The Phaeton still has the advantage over all the other frigates. The Arethusa had, how ever, beaten her slightly on one particular point of sail ing, but held her position only for a very short time. The Retribution experienced for the last two or three days a continuation of tremendous gales, with a very heavy following sea. PLYMOUTH, Melton 26.—Her Majesty's steamer Encounter and the French steam-frigate Caffarelli were at Lisbon. The Retribution has experienced some heavy weather on her passage home, with wind from south to south west, and has proved a good sea boat. It is supposed she will have to go to Portsmouth for coal, the stock in the Ply mouth depot being short. The Retribution is expecting orders, and it is supposed she has been sent home to convey troops to the Cape. The Avon steam-vessel is ordered to Portsmouth with seamen for the Prince Regent. The Hamoaze lighter sailed on Monday, with jury gear and stores for her Majesty's steam-vessel Valorous, which is ordered to proceed to Woolwich to be fitted with engines and boilers. APPOINTMENT.

It is expected he will select the Dasher steam-vessel, at present at Sheerness, and for merly employed on the same service under the command of Lieutenaat Abraham Parks. The Fearless steam-vessel arrived at Woolwich to day, from Sheerness, and will be employed on the sur veying service under the command of Captain Bullock. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian.) MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.-011 Saturday last our mar ket, as well as that of Liverpool, was a good deal ex cited, and the upward tendency of prices was increased by the Cambria's advices of the evening before, which reperted a further rise of 1 per cent. per lb. in three days, at New York, partly in consequence of an alleged diminution in the receipts at the ports, together with a narrowing of the esitmates in the south, and partly of the better accounts which the Pacific took out from this side on the 22d ult. OnXonday we' had the Europa's letters, which stated that cotton had gained 4 per cent. more in the same market. No additional advance has resulted from this, however, in Liverpool; indeed the extreme rates of Saturday are hardly maintained; but the gain upon Friday's quotations may be taken at id. In our own market also, the vivacity of Saturday is in some degree sobered by statements in these latter ac counts clashing with the previous ones, and showing a further excess, instead of a diminution, in the re ceipts. But our spinners take their stand with much firmness upon an addition of id. to 4d. per lb. to the attainable prices of this day week for most kinds of yarn, and, in the rest, they are harder to deal with. The business of the day would be considerable, if last week's rates were accepted instead of id. ad vance, and if id. more would suffice where id. is required. As it is, the transactions are limited, while the offers are numerous. The eastern merchants are doing more in 40-inch shirtings, particularly for Chios, and rather better prices are paid—as much as 3d. per piece for some kinds. Domestics continue dull, and other cloths inanimate; but the manufacturers, influenced by the course of things in cotton and yarn, hold more de cidedly to their previous terms. ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—The demand for flannel con tinues very hashed, and the merchants are desirous to purchase at lower prices. In wool there is little change; the dealers are eager to sell, but hold firm to the prices of last week. MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—We have had Some buyers here since our last, and are glad to say that business re sulted, although not to the extent usual at this season of the year. The really chaste and novel styles were those chiefly sought after; and, although the prices ob tained were not such as had been calculated upon, we have not heard that they were altogether unsatis factory. The thrown silk market remeins in the same dull state as reported for some time past. Many hands are without employment, and stocks of this article must be materially lessened before production to anygreat ex tent will be ventured upon. There is no alteration in the raw silk market; quotations being fully supported. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—Our market to-day has been an averease one, and a fair busiaess has been done amongst plaids and checks of the newer patterns, and peculiar to this season. In blacks, of the thinner and better qualities, for the spring and summer home trade, a fair business has been done. Tho fancy trade, and trade generally, of the cloth hall, has been rather flat. The warehouses, during the week, have been pretty brisk. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—WC have no improvement to report this week in the demand for worsted goods, either in the Piece Hall or in the warehouses. There is, indeed, no noticeable alteration in the state of the market. A very general disinclination to purchase yarns prevails at present, and the spinners are curtailing their production as much as possible. al little more wool has changed hands—their exhausted stocks leading the spinners to purchase; but there is no change in the quo tations. LEEDS, TUESDAY.—We have had dull markets at the Cloth Halls to-day, but a fair quantity of goods continue to be delivered to order. Stocks keep low, and prices are firm.

THE BOASTED UNITY OF THE ROMISH CHURCH. _ _ In the bosom of that Church which called and still calls herself indivisible, which claimed and still claims her oneness as her proof of catholicity, there were, and aro schisms as numerous and as alienating as can be found in the past or present history of any society calling itself Christian. Let her own historian enumerate some of them:—Benedict sth anti-Pope to Lo-o the Bth ; Boniface the 7th, Benedict the 6th,"and John the 14th, all opposed; John the 17th against Gregory the sth; Sylvester the 3d in con flict with Benedict the Bth ; Ilonorius the 2d contradict ing Alexander 2d. These are but a few of the occa sions on which she has uttered uncertain and discrepant LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, so unds up to the time of the tale before us. Time and space would fail us did we more than mention similar ir.stances in after ages, when Gregory the Bth and G-elasius the 2d. Celestinus the 2d and Honorius 2d, Anacletus 2d and Innocent 2d, Victor the 4th and Alex ander the 3d. Nicholas sth and John the 21st, Clement the 7th and Urban the 6th, each anathematized the other, —each disannulled his rival's laws and judgments,— each invested with apostolical succesion his own followers, and pronounced all other orders to be invalid. And seeing that of none of these irregularities hath the Ro man Church ever purged herself,—seeing that her returns to unity have been forms of compromise between con testing parties, not the triumph of an ancient truth— where is her boasted oneness? What Roman Catholic can prove to his own conviction that the decisions which guide his faith are not the voices of usurpers? What one can confidently be assured that the oil of consecra tion which fell upon the head of his soul's priest did not drop from the wrath-vial of some spurious Pontiff?"— Hildebrand and the Emperor.

In these days of division, it is gratifying to find that there are still some common objects of interest for which politicians are ready to work in concert, and not only ready, but zealous in their endeavours to promote what they can agree in advocating. The one of the excise duty on paper is fortunately one of these topics, and if combination of influences be of any avail to move the stony heart of the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, we should feel disposed to regard the confident expectations entertained upon the subject as not wholly destitute of foundation. Five-and-twenty Members of the House of Commons, nearly all of them representing Irish constituencies, waited upon Sir Charles Wood, on Saturday last, for the purpose of urging upon him the claims of the paper manufacturer to be relieved from the oppressive tax and still more oppressive system of fiscal espionage under which it labours. The paper trade, as was stated by the gentlemen composing the deputation, is one of the few branches of skilled industry that has main tained its position i❑ Ireland, affording a consider able amount of employment both directly and indi rectly to the population of several of the towns in the eastern portiun of the island. There can be no doubt that the removal of the present system of disabi lities to enterprise and improvement would tend materi ally to the further development of this species of manu facture, in a country which still imports more than two thirds of what is required for its home comsumption. Not a few facilities naturally present themselves for ' this. In the neighbourhood of most of the towns which are at present the seats of the manufacture in the sister kingdom, an abundant supply of water-power exists, useable for the simple machinery which the trade re enires. As in the case of the linen factories •in Ulster, it would be easy to adapt the mechanism so as to render the motive power of steam and water alternately available, thus ensuring constancy of work and economy in expenditure. There are few of the bleaching mills in the north of Ireland that do not possess a water-wheel as well as a steam engine; and as the price of coal is usually cheapest when :the supply of water from the mountain is most liable to fail, the skill of the machinist pro tects the manufacturer from being interrupted in his la bours or amerced in wasteful outlay for an indispensable element in his undertaking. In some of the paper mills now working in Ireland, the same alternative system has been brought into successful operation. But all expan sion of the trade is stopped by the vexatious surveillance of the excise and the intolerable imposition of an exces sive tax. Another feature in the case not without interest and importance is the sort of natural connexion between the growth and manufacture of flax on the ono hand and the paper trade on the other. Not merely is this true as regards the finer descriptions of fa brics, but even in the coarsest kinds the same ob• nervation applies. For the making of the more deli cate descriptions of paper, linen rags, as is generally known, are most useful, and it is a curious circumstance connected with this part of the subject, that, owing to the limited consumptio❑ of fine linens in the country where they are made, it is found necessary to import largely into Ireland this peculiar species of rags. But this is not all. It has been found by modern experi ments that in the improved method of dressing and pre paring flax, the vast amount of refuse which formerly was thrown away is capable of being turned to direct account as the raw material of the coarser kinds of wrapping-paper; and as this, from its great weight and bulk in proportion to its value when ready for sale is precisely the species of goods into the cost of which the price of the raw material most largely enters, whatever contributes to stimulate either the cultivation of the crop or the development of the manufacture, must needs produce reciprocal benefits. The tow and woody fibre which the improved process of flax-steeping collects and heaps together in one spot, is, under ordinary circum stances, of but little, and often of no marketable value whatever. Iu the neighbourhood of a paper mill it would readily bring from 151. to 201. a ton. Here, then, is a case for consideration by every reflect ing man placed in a position of political judgment, but pre-eminently ono for a Chancellor of the Exchequer to ponder and revolve. Here are the means of produc tion ready to hand—the disposition to employ them— practical familiarity with their use—and an almost una nimous expression of desire on the part of those who however closely or remotely sympathise in the matter — that shackles should be removed that hinder the growth of so unalloyed a good. The Scotch and English manufacturers aro thoroughly at one with each other and with their Irish fellow-workers in paper-making. The voice of industry in the three kingdoms is in this affair the same. There is no jealousy, no discord, no local or petty Interests warring with the general aim. A more populvx measure of fiscal reform Government could not devise than the relinquishment of the excise on paper. The amount which it yields is unquestionably considerable ; but, be it remembered, that its remission would not merely add, as in other cases, to increased expenditure on tax paying luxuries and necessaries, but to tho im mediate and extensive augmentation of the general stock of wealth, by the additional creation out of vaitteless materials of saleable goods.—Daily News. LAW INTELLIGENCE. SECONDARIES' COURT, March 2Z. (Before Mr. Secondary PorrEs..) RAPLEY V. SALTWELL, EXECUTRIX, This was an action to recover the sum of 4 4/. 19s. The plaintiff is a corn-dealer, &c., at C:aphe.m, and de fendant is executrix of Ann Saltwell, formerly an omni bus proprietress. The action was brought to recover the value of hay, corn, &c., supplied to deceased during her lifetime. Defendant pleaded that deceased bad been indebted to her, and that she bad no assets in hand belonging to the estate. The plaintiff's ATTORNEY said that as they were not in a position to prove that the defendant was in pos session of assets, therefore they would take a ver dict merely to ascertain the amount due, so that it might be recovered hereafter when any funds were in hand. Evidence was adduced to show a general delivery, and the fairness of the charges. The jury thereupon gave a verdict for the amount claimed. COURT OF INLAND REVENUE, March 26. (Before H. F. STEPHENSON, Elq., C. J. HERMES, Esq., and CHARLES PRESSLY, Esq.) FRAUD UPON THE POOR.-ADULTERATION OF PEPPER. Samuel Lindsay, of Lambeth-walk, grocer, was charged on an information containing two counts, with adulterating pepper with certain vegetable substances, and with having such adulterated pepper in his posses sion. The defendant pleaded not guilty to the charge. Mr. Bateman conducted the prosecution. Mr. David Doig stated that he was an officer of ex cise, and knew the premises of the defendant in Lam beth-walk. He was an entered dealer in pepper, and was a grocer. On the 21st of November witness went to the shop and purchased two ounces of ground white pepper, which he kept in his possession until he took it to be examined. Part of the quantity he purchased he handed over to his supervisor, and the rest to the analy tical chemist to the board (Mr. George Phillips). It was in the same state as he received it from the defen dant's shop, and no alteration bad been made in it. Witness looked at it when he got home, but was not then aware whether or not it was adulterated. He bad since, by the aid of the microscope, seen that a large proportion of rice was mixed with it. The rice was quite perceptible amongst it, as there was a great difference in the granules of rice from those of pepper. Cross-examined by the defendant—He had purchased samples of pepper at other shops on the day in question, but he took care that a proper distinction should be pre served. He took them the following day to the office to have them tested. Mr. George Phillips deposed that he was a surveying examiner-general of excise, and analytical chemist to the board. He had examined samples of pepper brought to him by Mr. Doig, the officer. They consisted of white pepper and rice, in the proportion of one-half of each. By the assistance of a moderate power of the microscope the admixture was very perceptible. Another parcel sent to him by the supervisor gave precisely the same results. Mr. George Digby ,supervisor of excise, said the shop of the defendant was in his district. The officer gave him a sample of pepper, purchased by him at the defendant's, which he handed to the chemist in the same state as he received it. The defendant, in reply to the charge, said the young man was in court whom he had employed to manage the business of his shop, and ho could state whether he (defendant) had ever given him orders to do anything wrong. Mr. Commissioner STEPHENSON—The question be fore the Court is not whether or not it was done by your orders, but whether you have sold pepper or rice ? Defendant—My young man had no order from me to do anything wrong, and if it is so it has been done without my knowledge. Mr. Commissioner STEPHENSON That makes no difference. You are liable for the acts of your servant. Do you attempt to prove that it is not adulterated Defendant—l cannot do that, but I can say that I had no knowledge of its being so. Mr. Commissioner STEPHENSON—Then the Court gives judgment against you in the penalty of 25/., and you may rely upon it that the amount will not be dimi nished. The Court is determined in every future case to in flict a much more severe p ena lty un til a complete check is put to this dishonest trade. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME ClRCUlT.—Maidstone, March 25. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron Rirtxr.) The Learned Judge was engaged during the wh ole of Monday in disposing of a number of indictments for burglary and receiving stolen property at Chatha m. The parties accused were James Clarke, 34, James Thomas, 31, and George Turner, 30, who were charged as principals in several burglaries; and Thomas Wilson e , 55, Harriet Wilson, 50, and Hannah Summers, 34, wer charged in all the indictments with baying folosiously received the property, knowing it to have been stolen. Mr. G. Denman conducted the prosecution; Mr. Ilorne de The e charges wo were W clearly brought home to the parties, with the exception of Summers, by the evidence of Tur ner, who was admitted to give evidence for the Crown, and by other independent testimony, and from the state ment made by him it appeared that be, Clarke, and Thomas, and some other men, had committ ed a great many burglaries in the neighbourhood of Chatham, ant i it would seem that the other prisoners Thomas and Har riet Wilson, who kept a low public-house at Chatham, called the Cannon, were the ready receivers ue the stolen property. The prisoner Summers was servant i n the house, aid At appeared ti ,63 shy bad p of the articles that had been stolen, but it was doubtful whether she had done this of her own accord or under the authority of her master and mistress.

" I would just as lief walk in the rain as the sunshine, wade through a run if it is not easy to get over, and only take care to keep in motion until I get home, take off my wet shoes, dip my feet in a basin of cold water, dry them, and put on dry shoes.

CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE.) Christopher Hedy, aged 19, and Joseph Marshall, aged 20, were indicted for a burglary at Birmingham. Mr. Sergeant Miller and Mr. O'Brien conducted the prosecution; and Mr. Willmore defended the prisoners. From the statement of the prosecutor, Thomas Mar ston, it appeared that during the night of the 7th of October he was aroused from his sleep by hearing a noise in his house; that looking down stairs he could see a man crouching along a passage, and that he immediately went down. Upon reaching the parlour, however, he found two men there, and, considering he was over matched, ho retreated up stairs. Tho men followed him, and began beating him violently about the back and legs. He then got one of the rails of the banisters to defend himself with, and ho struck at them and beat them as well as he could; but one of the men had in his hand a poker, and with that he struck the prosecutor several times on the head, inflicting four severe wounds, which bled profusely, and afterwards confined him to his bed for a fortnight. The men made their escape at the time, but without taking any property away with them. The prisoners were a short time afterwards apprehended, and the only question was, whether they were satisfactorily identified as the men who committed the burglary. Many circumstances wore proved to connect them with it; and after a protracted investigation, The jury found a verdict of Guilty; whereupon sen tence of death was recorded. March 26. CIVIL SlDE.—(Bofore Mr. Baron ALDERSON and a Special Jury.) SPHOSTON V. DAVIES. This was an action of false imprisonment, to which the defendant had pleaded not guilty, and, by way of justification, that he was coroner of Birmingham, and had ordered the plaintiff to be imprisoned for a contempt of his court during the holding of an inquest. The pleadings were very complicated and voluminous, admi rably calculated, according to the statement of the coun sel and the judge, to render the matter as unintelligible as possible. Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., and Mr. Mellor, appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Humfrey, Q.C., and Mr. Hayes for the defendant. The plaintiff is a surgeon and general medical practi- tioner of Birmingham, and the defendant is a physician there as well as coroner for the borough. The present action arose out of the proceedings at an inquest held on the Bth of October, 1849, upon the body of one Abra ham Bullows, who had died of cholera; and the Learned Judge in the course of the trial commented upon the folly and impropriety of holding such inquest, whereby the privacy of families was invaded without assisting at all the detection of crime. At the inquest in question the plaintiff, who was the medical attendant of the de ceased, was examined as a witness, and the foreman of the jury was now called upon to prove what took place upon that occasion. He stated that the coroner first asked the pllintiff, " At what time did you first see the deceased?" To which the plaintiff answered " be tween twelve and one." The coroner then said, " When next?" To which the reply was, " between five and six." In answer to another question as to when he next saw the deceased the plaintiff replied, "It may be halt-past twelve or one." Whereupon the coroner said," That will not do, sir, I must have a definite answer. If you have any doubts you must say about." The plaintiff replied, " Then say about, sir; but I believe it was be tween f.vvE;lve and one." During this colloquy the plaintiff had ben sitting rather behind the coroner, who then said, " Come from behind me, sir, and take that chair in fr.int of me and look me in the face and answer my questions in a becoming manner." The plaintiff took the chair in front, and said, " sir, I have endeavoured to ans.wer youtiquestions in a becoming manner." The conner said, "I won't be spoken to in that way;" and tte plaintiff answered, " I have treated you as a gentle raau, and expect the same treatment in return." The , axamination of the plaintiff was then continued, and at the end of it the coroner rose and severely reprimanded the plaintiff. He said, " I have been her Majesty's coroner for ten years, and was never so insulted before. As supreme judge of this court—(Laughter)--I will up hold the dignity of the court. Now, sir, leave the room; go; begone!" (Laughter.) The plaintiff was about to leave the room, but as he was going he said to th© coroner, " You shall hear from me, sir, in another way;" upon which the coroner called out, " Do you threaten me in the execution of my duty? Come back, sir." The plaintiff came back, and then the coroner said, " You hold out threats against me." The plaintiff replied, " I hold out no threat, but you shall hear from me in ano ther way." The coroner then said he would commit him unless he retracted or apologised; but the plaintiff refused, adding, " What I have said I reiterate." The . -- coroner then said to a policeman of the name of Long, who was in attendance:'‘ Take him to Moor-street." In Moor-street the prison is situated in which at that time all persons were - detained who were awaiting removal to the county gaol at Warwick. Long, however, instead of taking the plaintiff to Moor-street, took him to the po lice-station in New-street, and the inspector at that police-station, when he was told for what cause the plaintiff had been brought there, sent to the coroner to request that he would come and prefer a charge, as otherwise he could not detain the plaintiff. The coroner refused to go or to sign the charge-sheet, which described the plain titra offence as contempt of court; but he sent word to the inspector that the plaintiff must be detained, and that if the officer discharged him it would be at his peril. He also stated that the charge was quite right. The reading of the charge-sheet caused no little amusement. It was divided into columns with separate headings. Under the heading " Witness" was written "By order of the coroner;" and under the head " Offence proved" was written the word " discharged." The Learned Judge suggested that it was a curiosity worthy of the Great Exposition.—(Laughter.) The plaintiff was taken to the police-station at ten minutes past nine in the evening, and at ten minutes past eleven let out on bail to appear before the magistrate next morning. On the following morning he did attend in the magistrates' room, and the only magistrate present was the defendant. Upon taking his seat at the table he said, " I take my seat here to day as coroner, and not as magistrate." He then turned to a policeman and said, " Put up Mr. Henry Sproston." The plaintiff stood up, and his at torney then endeavoured to address the defendant, but he would not hear him. He called upon the plaintiff to retract or apologise, but the plaintiff refused to do so; and then the defendant suddenly said, " The case is dis missed." For the imprisonment of the plaintiff under the cir cumstances above described the present action was brought. On the part of the plaintiff it was contended that a coroner has no right to commit for contempt et all; and that question was reserved for future considera tion in the court above. It was also urged, that, at all events, the defendant had no right to commit for an in definite time, or to any place but the county gaol or the House of Correction; and that the imprisonment at the station in New-street, and at the magistrate's office on the following morning, was altogether unauthorised, be cause, as soon as the inquest was over, the defendant's authority as coroner terminated. The Learned JUDGE, in summing up, expressed his regret that this matter should have been brought "' court. It would have been much better if the, tw o and doctors had used the language of the old it 0h said— hat the " Brother, brother, we're both in the wrong.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARYLEBONE. ROBBERY BY A POLE AT LORD DUDLEY STUART'S. —Yesterday a Pole, named Rauhuski, was placed at the' bar, before Mr. Broughton, on the charge of having committed a robbery at the residence of Lord Dudley Stuart, Stratford-place, Oxford-street. It appeared from the evidence that on Friday last the. , prisoner went to the house, and having rung the bendiest was admitted by one of the servants, to whom he' handed a letter addressed to his Lordship; he took the said letter upstairs, leaving the prisoner in the hall, and on his going down to give an answer, be found that the prisoner had decamped, taking with him a coat belong ing to Mr. Birkbeck, a barrister, who, at the time, was his Lordship's guest at dinner. The letter alluded ,to falsely purported to be written by Lieut. Szulczewski, secretary to the Literary Association of the Friends of Poland, and it recommended " the bearer" to assistance in the sum of 7s. 6d. At six o'clock last Monday even ing Police-constable 172 C took into custody the prise ncr, who was pointed out to him by the secreta r y , by whom he was recognised while walking along Piccadilly. Ue admitted having stolen the coat, and said that he had sold it to a Jew, giving his name and reside nce, for es. It was further stated that the prisoner wa s knows to Horsford, of the Mendicity Society, as a begging imp postor. Mr. Birkbeck was not in attendance, nor had the coat been traced, and, in order to afford time for the officer employed in the case to institute further inquiries, the prisoner was remanded until Tuesday next. SOUTHWARK. Yesterday William Huggen, a journeyman tanner in Bermondsey, was placed at the bar before Mr. A'Beckett. charged with inflicting such injuries on his wife that she is not expected to survive. A policeman stated that on the previous night he was called to a house where the prisoner and his family lived, at Bermondsey, and on entering a room on the ground floor he found his wife lying on the floor in a state of insensibility. There was a part of a broken bed rail at a short distance from her, which he (policeman) was informed her husband (the prisoner) bad broken while in the act of beating her and inflicting the injuries which she had sustained. Finding that the woman was in such a bad state he (the policeman) procured a cab, and had her placed in it, and drove her off to the hospi tal. On being examined by the house-surgeon the latter gave a certificate (produced), which d esc ribed that t e t patient was utterly incapable of attending the (sour owing to the severe contu s ions inflicted on body. her often The policeman added that the woman bad never sp since the alleged acts of violence had b ee n committed , and that be accordingly took the prisoner into cust as ody. Upon subsequent inquiries being institu ted, it w as certained that the prisoner was a hard-workingindus trious man, having a family of children, bat that his wife was aiven to habits of drunkenness and neglecting her home; that upon a recent occasion, after having pledged and made away with most of her husband's and children's clothes, she left home and stayed a wa y week. On the previous night she return ed, and the prisoner being at home at the time, under exasperated feelings at her conduct in abandoning:her children under such circumstances, he grasped the first thing that came to hand, and that was one of the bed rai ls, her with such violence as almost to deprive h er of lira. Mr. ATECKETT, upon the production of th e °or"' cate from the hospital where the injured woman is it o! lying, remanded the prisoner, who said nothing, until was ascertained whether she is likely to survi ve the Ti e . lance inflicted upon her. and beat Thomas Wales, late a patient in St. Thomas's linsPi tal, was charged with stealing a suit of clothes belong ing to an inmate of the same institution. The prosecutor stated that he was a patient in t a e above hospital, and the prisoner being in the same ws, and convalescent, he asked him to brush his suit o f clothes and clean his boots, preparatory to leaving she institution. This the prisoner consented to do on the promise of remuneration, and the clothes were accord ingly given to him for the above purpose. Th e pri soner, however, instead of performing the job, the m° - went he had possession of his fellow-patient's clothes' r l left the hospital with them, and converted them to hi own purposes, and was not heard of again until the pre ceding night, when he was apprehended in Shoreditch with the complainant's coat on his back. The remainder of the garments he had disposed of. The prisoner said be could say nothing in extenua tion of his offence. Mr. ATECKETT said the offence was aggravated from the circumstance of the prisoner acting in such a man ner towards an unfortunate fellow-patient in the stun°. hospital. The magistrate, however, added that if he sent the prisoner for trial on the charge of stealing the clothes, there was a probability that he might escape, es the complainant had asked him to brush the clothes, asd en trusted them to him for that purpose. Instead, there fore, of dealing with the case in that way he (the Magis trate) should deal summarily with it, and should con vict the prisoner and sentence him to two months im prisonment. The prisoner was committed accordingly. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS. BRISTOL, Matto' 26. STOCK ExcHANOI.—The market has been rather heavy to-day, and prices generally are lower.
