ALBANS ABSENTEES. The return of Sk.ggs and &Delmore to St. Al bans, from which owing to their visit to Boulogne, they had been absent since April last, when they ab sconded from tho Parliamentary Committee, has created some little sQnsAtion in that locality. It appears 111,:;t, titer being discharged from the Mansion house they repai-sd to the Great Northern Railway, and arrived in Albans the sama evening, where they took up their quarters at the George Hotel. It is said they feign forgetfulness on all matters con nected with local and electioneering affairs, and ap pear to wafer answering ell questions and kind in quiries in French, with their proficiency in which they edify their fellow-townsmen. It has been ascer tained with considerable certainty that Waggett has emigrated to New York, one of the local police at Dieppe having informed Forester that be saw him embark on board for , hat purpose. Hayward is still understAnd to be in France, and Edwards, who it will be remembered was committed to the custody of the Sergeant-at• Arms, on being liberated from New• gate on the day of the prorogation of Parliament, returned to hi• family at St. Albans, after a period of four months' confinement. Being committed for a misdemeanour of what, in prison par lance, is called a misdemeanour of the first class, he was•tallowed in Newgate to have what he liked, and looked none the worse on the day of his discharge when the formal authority of the Sp -ulcer was issued for the purpose. I; is acid that, although the proclamation for the apprehension of these men became a dead let ter on the adjournment of the House of Commons, whose power over the delinquents also expired, yet that the House of Lords, whose constitutional powers do not decline with the close of the session, have the pow,2r,' the St. Albans Bribery Commission Bill having been,,beforo them, to detain and commit the parties for contempt and absconding. Though the proclamation of reward for the capture of the absent witnesses is alleged only to run during the period of the session, the proclamation itself makes no men tion of this, however that might, so to :peak, be the reasonable intendment. By some it is thought that the reward is legally recoverable, but if so, as the proclamation was royal, and as a subject cannot bring au action against the Queen, the question would have to be raised by what is called a petition of right. The entire transaction since April last has been most cleverly "clandestined " by the secret agencies be hind the scenes, and the cost is supposed to have been considerable. THE SLAVES OF ROME. (From the Dublin Constitution.) The slaves of Rome, the slaves of ItJnae, Whose elluies tiv3 heaven sent mlrtyra broke, Still 'madly rage, and idly foam, And kiss the Pope's scourst , d yoke.

There were a great many police standing An extraordinary trial took place lest week b e f o r e around, but none attempted to interfere with this ille the Court of Assize of the Seine-ea Marne. In tlie gal procesesion." month of January of the present year a female, named I Or course the license which is conceded to Cardi - Petit, the wife of a miller at Nemours, near Fontaine- : n al Wiseman will not be denied to Ebenezer Brown. bleau, was at breakfast with her two children. One The sincere Jumper has quite as much a right to of the children, about seven years of age, after taking promulgate his d a small portion of chocolate, refused to take any more octrines in tite streets as the zealous Roenauist. It is not because Mr. Brown is a shoe on account of its disagreeable taste, and the other maker, or indeed a re p airer of shoes, that he is to be child did not touch it. The mother, fancying that the compelled to " move on," and the Cardinal permitted child who had refused to take any more was actuated to proceed. Shoul d either disobe y the roaudate to go by caprice, drank some o f t h e chocolate herself, and about his business, the oleaginous collar of Ebenezer soon afterward s she and th e c hild were attacked with is no less and no more sacred from the clutch of the severe vomiting. The husband, who came in at this policeman t han the what-d'ye-call it at the poll of time, went i mme di ate l y f o r medical aid; and the N icholas ; a nd British Justice contemplates with doctor, on arr i v i ng , was so convinced from the symp- equal eye the rusty sables of the former, and the pan toms that his patients bad been poisoned, that he titic als of the latter (with all his properties to boot) in administer e d antidotes and saved their lives.

The only other person in the house was a girl named Boulay, only Wiseman, we may expect that the Reverend Bo ' s'n Smith will re-enter on his itinerant mission. The itP years old, who had lived with Petit and his wife Cardinal may consider himself to be a commissioned a s servant for fifteen months. As this girl appeared to be fond of her mistress and of the children, she was officer of the Ship of Peter; but the law of England takes no more account of him than it does of the not suspected. Many days, however, did not elap se I3o's'n. The wisdom of anybody has as much right before she cast suspicions on Petit, and being interro- to cry in the streets as the wisdom of Wiseman. — gated by the examining magistrates, declared that Punch. Petit illttreatsti his wife, and had expre ssed a desire to get rid of ;her. At another int erro g ator y she, - - finding that her former depositions had created some suspicions against herself, declared that Petit bad had criminal relation with her, and bad resolved to de stroy his wife in order that they might be able to , carry on their intercourse without control. He, she i said, had given her the poison, and had instructed her : to put it into the milk, which was to be mixed up with the chocolate. A surgeon who had examined the girl Boulay declared that she was no longer a virgin, and this fact seeming to confirm the girl's statement, Petit was arrested, as was also the girl. Petit, when taken from his home, was much agitated, and declared that, although innocent, he was a lost man. His wife behaved with great tenderness, and implored the officers of justice not to believe the statement of the girl, for Petit was a kind husband and doating father, and never could have contemplated her destruction and that of his children. The girl Boulay, after her arrest, changed her story. At four or five examinations she said she had been guilty of falsehood, that her master had never had any criminal intercourse with her, and that, knowing - where he kept arsenic for the destruction of rats, she had taken it, and nut it into the milk. When asked what motive she had fur this horrible act, she replied that she wished to get rid of her mistress, in . order that she might possess her fine clothes and jewellery. In these examinations she de clared that her seducer !Ails a man who worked at the mil!. At her tivelf‘h and thirteenth examination 'he Equivocroed a great deal, hut still admitted that she had ad ministered the poison without the know: !edge of her master, and (het her seducer was tot the journeyman miller as she at first sid, butauother :seems man, whom she married. Her motive fur attemptieg to poison her mi-tre.o;, she now said, was not to ob tain poss,lon of her clothes, but in order that her death might put an end to her servituie, and enable he: to return home; and this there is reason to be lieve was the true motive at the crime, for it was ascertained that she had frequently entreated her mother to hove her home and had been refused, On account d thei inability of the mother to support her. Notwithstanding these confessions it was thought right to keep Petit in prison, and even to bring aim to trial; for as the first charges of the girl had been made so positively, and as she had so frequently equivocated, it was difficult to de cide as to what part of her statement was to be believed. She and her master were, therefore, both put to the bar. It was naturally sup posed that her interrogatory by the president of the 1 tribunal would produce the same nettle as her last examinations, but to the astonishment of the court she declared that her first account was the correct one—that her master had repeatedly slept with her— that he had given the poison to her, and desired her to administer it, and as an inducement had assured her that after the death of her mistress they should live together as man and wife. Petit underwent his interrogatory with great firmness, and the whole of his demeanour was such as to carry a conviction of his innocence to the crowd who heard the trial. The witnesses who were called were to establish the fact of the poisoning, and to speak to the character of the two prisoners. A few persons deposed to rumours of ill-treatment of the wife by her husband, but several persons who knew him intimately, and had frequent opportunities of observing his conduct towards his wife, deposed that he was a kind and indulgent hus band. Madame Petit, who appeared as a witness, as sured the Court that her husband had always behaved in the kindest manner, and that he was passionately fond of his children. It was utterly impossible, she said, that he could ever have harboured a criminals ,design towards her or them. As to the girl Boulay, it was proved that she was utterly un educated, and was precociously wicked. The Pro cureur of the Republic, in addressing the court, said that as he could not believe the prisoner Petit to be guilty he could not ask the jury to convict him, but of the guilt of the girl he bad no doubt. The jury, however, might think that, from her youth, she had acted without a full consciousness of the crime she was committing, and if their verdict was to that effect it would enable the Court to order her imprison ment in a house of correction for the purpose of im proving her morals and restoring her to society, cured of the wretched propensities of her mind. The jury withdrew to deliberate on their verdict, and, to the astonishment of the people in the Court, and perhaps of the judges, who had made up their minds as to the merits of the case, and supposed that much &libera tion was not necessary on the part of the jury, an hour elapsed before the verdict was delivered. Thi• verdict created greater astonishment than the delay which preceded it, for it pronounced the acquittal of both prisoners. The girl left the court immediately. As to Petit, he was not able to move for some time, fer his wife fell into his arms and his friends crowded round him to congratulate him on h escape. A CURIOUS WELSH PETTICOAT. Among many specimens of the unnoticed industry of Welsh peasants, which have been unable to find their way to the Great Exhibition, a knitted woollen petticoat attracts considerable attention in the principality. It is described as being a very unique garment, about 3i yards in width, of the proper length for an ordinary person, with beautiful t,rnamental scallops at the bottom. Every turn has one thousand six hundred stitches, which took the industrious knitter exactly one hour to com plete. There are in the knitting twelve different pat terns, and the waist is so constructed that it admits of being adjusted to the body without any stitching what ever. This industrial curiosity is the production of Elizabeth, wife of Nat. Evans, of Pennent, Montgomery 4hiro, North Wales, a labouring mac, with nine children. Her poverty is so great that, in order to complete her design, Elizibeth Evans had to obtain a few ounces of 3 ern on credit, from which she knitted a pair of stock logs, which, being sold, paid for the first supply. and obtained credit to the good woman for the second. The remainder of the yarn was each tune applied to the petticoat, and thus, at last, it was completed; but, un fortunately, too late for its admission among the wonders of the Crystal Palace. It is the present intention of the poor woman's friends to have her carious workmanship exhibited at a bazaar, to be held in connexion nith the Tremadoc Bardic Congress in October next. STEAM-BOAT EXPFIMIENTS.—On Monday, the 18th, and two following days, we had the gratification of witnessirg a series of experiments on the Serpentine, Hyde park, to test tt:e qualitiks of a model steam•ves.el, invented by a gentleman near Colchester, named Vire, who has, we under , tand, been occupied many years in its c-mpletion, atte.ialed tot course with much lab.mr and expens'. The model is taken from the Feb y, its length being 10 wet, beam 14 inches, ti•ted with submarine paddles, of 4 1 ,‘, inches, at tached to her quarters below the water line, worki.•g under water. The engine is also placed in a similar situation, and consequently protected from slifd, and all other mi,siles. The ex;2elitnentc; were Lai quire suet sstul, and proved the inven tion to be of great value and consequenc", the speed per formed by the model being as near as could be ascertained five knots. We have b , eri informed that he model wilt in future be shown at the Polytechnic Institution. MISS AZvNA ZERR. The question has often been raised, how far the Ministry of Schwarzenberg-Bach is responsible for the atrocities perpetrated in Hungary under the sway of Haynau; whether the hal!-crczy m ars h a l acte d upon his instructions from Vienna when he had ladi'-s flogged and ministers-and generals banged, or whether all moral imputation rests upon him alone. Public opinion condemned him ; and, after all, it seems th'it he was but' tly3 tool of the reckless Pre mier, and of the once liberal Dr. Bach, for whom the birricades of Vienna were the stepstone to th e Mi nistry. It is true that since Haynau' dismissal from office there have been no more executions, that even a great many of the superior Hungarian officers have been released from prison ; but the spirit of persecu tion is still alive, and the recent case of Miss Anna Zirr is a new instance of the fact that the Austrian Ministry whichtakeslenistryGovernment bee o t o e fe a s s a u re in prosecuting women in a a gr p ea e t tt r i e fo a g lm gi . ng lawyer, and not Miss Anna Zerr, one of the most distinguished opera singers of the I mper i a l Th ea t re a t th e Carin thian gate, got several y ears ago t h e pa t en t o f im perial chamber-sin ger (k ammer - sanger i n ) , a dis tinction often conferred on celebrated virtuosi. She never meddled with politics, but she was too proud and too honest to cringe before the powerful. Several of her former friends have been compromised during the revolution, but she did not forsake them ; and when, in the months of June and July, she made a trip to London, she visited two of the exiles re• siding there. About this time the committee for the relief of the Hungarian refugees got up a concert at Willis's to )ms, and Miss Anna Zerr was invited to lend her distinguished talent for this charity. She readily consented to sing, but a sudden indispo sition prevented her from taking part in the concert. Shortly afterwards she left London and returned to Vienna, where, to her greatest surprise, she was com pelled to return her diploma of katemer-sangerin, and forbidden to appear on the stage; nay, she was even put under the surveillance of the police, and cannot leav e th e town w ithout a special permission and all this b ecause s h e was ready , to aid a charity which is under the chairmanship of Lord Dudley Stuart, and is patronised by a great number of Members of Parliament. It is a petty vengeance u pon an artist, but it i s a t t h e same time an insult to Hungarians; and the Ministry should keep it in mind that the Hungarians more readily forgive cruelty 1 than insolence. —Daily News. WISDOM PREACHING 1.2‘ THE STREETS A few year' ago it w as a f requent spectacle in and about London to Fee a concourse of persons collected in some open space, listening to the exhortations of a preacher in shabby black, with a rubbish -heap for his pulpit, and the sky for lvs se unding-board. The po lice authorities appear to have suppressed a practice, which probibly occasioned fewer conversions th an eves of pocket-picking. We may, however, antici pate a revival of iierm , )ns sub Jove, if there ba triuh in the statement of the currespcmdent of a morning , COnte m . : r rsry, who says— " A s 1 - w 44 Tissing along Orchard-street, Portman. . `Crlare, ht s t (Nlonda) evening about nine o'clock, I v, B urPris , d to s ee a Cardinal Viii, era "nii: .

In answer to the complaint, Lieutenant Bradshaw semi he 'rind ju , •t come to Lond.m with a portion of his regiment, fur Woolwich. His servant paid for the dog, and they ought to have Christian attention, especially %l en he paid more than Christia❑ fare. He risked his men whether they would have the dog, and on their replying in the affirmative, he was about to place the deg among the soldier,, when the guard seized him by the epaulette, and nearly pulled him backwards. He might have struck him, but the guard was wrong. Reuben Ward, servant to defendant, said he saw Lieutenant Bradshaw attempt to put the dog in the carriage. Dm. , guard took hold of him, and pulled him buck. Defendant never struck the guard. He must have seen it it he bad. Lieutenant Bradshaw here intimated to the magis trates that be could not p)ssibly allow the dogs to be put in the same box. They were of different sexes, and under the circumstances he was compelled to keep them separate. The railway company had only one dog box, and he was requesting the guard not to put thorn together. The soldiers were• also quite content to receive the animal, and it being a train specially employed, he considered the guard had no right to interfere. He denied striking the guard inten- tionally. Mr. A'BromErr said he was sorry that the rail way company should be compelled to bring a gentle man in defendant's condition before him on such a charge. He had not only broken the by-laws of the company, but actually assaulted the railway officer in the execution of his duty. He should therefore, under all the circumstances, fine him 51. Lieutenant Bradshaw then paid the fine, and loft the court protesting against the magistrate's decision. WANDSWORTH. A tall, gentlemanly-looking man, who gave the name of Robert Hattie, was brought before Mr. B-a don, on a warrant, which clrrged him with having deserted his wife, Margaret Rattie, whereby she had become charg,eAble to the parish of Wandsworth. The defendant was apprehended by Taylor, the warrant officer of the court, at the Exhibition, on Tuesday afternoon last, while in the clasa appro priated for his plans. He is the inventor of the red and blue signal lights upon the railways, and also of some ship lights for the prevention of collisions at sea. _ _ Mrs. Margaret Rattie, a middle-aged woman, o lady-like appearance, and dressed in deep black, on being sworn said she resided in Ebenezer-terrace, Wandsworth, and was at the present time receiving relief from the pari. , h. The defendant was her hus band, and she had been separated from him for the last three years. Her husband has slime that time been residing in Scotland, and he had latterly re turned to London for the purpose of attending the Exhibition. He had preciously entered into an ar• rangement to allow her 10;. per week. On the 14th of November, 1650, she received her last payment, and her husband has not contributed to her support sit es that time. In reply to a question from the magistrate, The defendant sail he had nothing to say to his wife, but he wished to make a short statement in ex phnatitm of his conduet. He then said his wife left him ehout three years since, and he had provided for hie three children, one of whom was now in court. He stopped it, Looden until the whole of his property was expsnsted, a portion of which was Fquendered away by his wife. lie went to Scotland, where some person's tool; up his inventions, and he was detained there some tier: in Copse quence. Ile had scarcely any means to return to London, hut by the kindness of some ri iends be was able to attend the Crystal Palace and exhibit some of hit ioven•ion3. He was working herd to siippert his three children, and he was now struggling egainq poverty, whilst his wife was re maining idle, when she could, if she thought proper, work at her needle for her support. Mr. BEADON said he did not agree with the de fendant's statement, as his wife had been before him on many occasions. The defendant had endeavoured to prove her to be insane, and had brought up no fewer than six surgeons to that court for the purpose of cer tifying to that effect. He had given the last surgeon that attended a good talking to, for he admitted that he knew of five other surgeons having been ex amined who refused to prove that she was mad. Ile also did not forget on those occasions that the evi dence went to prove that the defendant was in the habit of hanging red herrings outside his windows for the purpose of showing to the neighbours that there was plenty of food for his wife, when in fact there was eo food whatever inside. The defendant's con duct to Lis wife was cruel in the extreme; and, al though he had been at the Exhibition since February last, he had not taken any steps to provide for her future support. The defendant slid he was most willing to support his wife if he was in a condition to do so. He was scarcely able to support himself and children, and he was in debt at the present time to the amount of several hundred pounds. Oily a short time since a judgment was obtained against him for 2001., and he expected to go to prison every day. He had plenty of money clue to him for his inventions, but he could not obtain a single farthing. He had endeavoured to obtain justice from the Government of his own coun try, but as yet it had not been rendered him. Mrs. Rattie said her husband had sought to obtain a separation for five years, and had called in no fewer than eleven surgeons to prove her insane. It was mutually agreed at the time of their separation that she should live at Ham, but she was compelled to leave that place, as the defendant failed to remit her any money, and her clothes were now in the pos session of the landlady for rent. Tne defendant said he could prove that he had been a victim to circumstances. Wnile in Scotland, he invented some designs for the Perth prison, whereby the Government saved 4001. annually for fuel. His inventions were, by some chance, not received, al though they were acted upon, and he was now de pending upon small remittances sent to him by some friends in Scotland for those very designs. If he obtained any money from the Exhibition, he would willingly repay it back to the parochial authorities. Tne defendant than handed to the magistrate the judgtnenr, for the 2001, and further said that that was not. the only sum ; tee expected one in a few days for 4001. I: was quite distressing to his mind to find persons using his invention is all starts of the country and h e not, rece ving ',epees from them. He ought, at the present time, to be driving in his car riage, ilnd he would have willingly borne his troubles if his wife had not resorted to those means to bring him before the public. Mr. Beednea said Mrs. Rattie had been before him several times, and he had elway s found her condu :t to be irreproachable, and he had never heard anything against her. The deiendent's conduct towards his with had been most cruel, and be considered, from the evidence he had heard on several occasions, that it amounted to persecution. The defendant said he hoped there would be a time when his worship would think otherwise. He could not help what persons said behind his back, and he ought to have an opportunity to vindicate himself. Mr. Thomas Cochrane, the relieving officer of Wandsworth, said the defendant was living in Ken sington, and he might take his wife home and support her as well as he could. Taylor, the officer, said that he had been to the de fendant's apartment, and it certainly was a most miserable one. It was a back garret at a coffee-house in Kensington, and there was scarcely any furniture in the room. The defendant had a father and brother who were also exhibitors in the Crystal Palace, but they were not on friendly terms. He had made in quiries at the Exhibition, and ascertained that he was very poor, and that he was in the habit of borrowing money for his support. The defendant said it was quite true, and if it was not for the remittances he received rom Scotland, which would shortly cease, and a little money be oc casionally obtained from some gentlemen in the Ex hibition, he certainly should starve. There were others in the Exhibition as poor as himself, and who had spent the last shilling to exhibit their in ventions. Mr. BEADON having read the judgment for the 2001. against the defendant, said there was no doubt he was in debt, and in a worse condition than a pauper. He would probably be incarcerated in a prison very shortly, and no doubt for a large sum. He (Mr. Beadon) therefore did not feel justified in that case in sending the defendant to gaol. He should make no order, and the defendant must be dis charged. Ile considered his conduct towards his wife very bad, and if it had been in his power, he should have felt no compunction in sending him to prison for the full period. NORTHERN ClRGUlL—Liverpool, Aug. 20. CRO .% N COURT.—(Before Mr. 13 sron PLATT.) ChurlPs Howard and John Owen we re with obasinieg goods from Thomas Parkinson Luth waite, by false pretences. Other counts of the in dictment charged them with conspiring, together with one Thomas Bonner Russell, to defraud the said Thomas Parkinson Luthwaite. Mr. Monk and Mr. Spiuks appeared for the. prose cution ; Mr. T. Atkinson defended the prisoner Owen, end Mr. Sowler the prisoner Howard. It appeared that the prosecutor was a currier, car rying on business at Barton, in Westmoreland. Owen was a porter, at Manchester, baying a horse end cart, with which he carried on his business; and Howard had been a weighing clerk in the Manches ter, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway. On the 14th of November last the prosecutor received the following letter : Mill-lane, Droysden, near Manchester, and at Lady well Works, November 13, 1850. " Sir,—Please favour us with your lowest prices for leather. " We are, Sir, yours obediently, " For J. Howard and Co., " T. RUSSELL" This letter was in the hand-writing of the prisoner Howard. The prosecutor replied to this letter, stat ing his prices for leather, and on the 16th he received another letter from " J. Howard and C 0.," desiring him to forward a certain quantity of leather, ad dressed to them to the address at Droysden, and to send the invoice per post; and accordingly the pro secutor forwarded by the Lancaster and Carlisle Rail way leather of the value of 101. lii. ld., and posted the invoices. The leather duly arrived at the Ashton under-Lyne station, and the police sergeant at Droys den, having inquired and found that there was no such firm carrying on business at Mill-lane, Droys den, and that there were no such works as Ladywell Works, directed the officers of the railway to detain the leather in case it should be applied for. On the 28th of November, Howard and Russell presented themselves at the Droysden station, and asked if there was any leather addressed to J. Howard and Co. The station-master told them that it was at Ashton under- Line station ; thither they went, and on inquiry for the leather, were told by the station-master that the leather was there, but that the company had in formed the parties from whom it came that there was no such firm or concern as " J. Howard and Co., Droysden." Howard replied that there was such a firm, and showed letters addressed to Howard and Csmpeny from the prosecutor, and said that his name was Howard, and that if he would let him have the goods, he would pay the carriage for them, and fetch cart to take them away. The station-master said that he could nut permit them to do so until he had heard from the person who had sent the goods ; but that they would be sent to the Droysden station. Howard and Russell then went to Me. Byrom, an officer of the company, who had received ieformation from the police, and he told them !het the leather would be sent to the Droysden station, where they could apply for it. Arrangements having been made, policeman, and an assistant in plain chthes, were placed to watch the station at Droysden, and the next day, the 294), the prisoner Owen came with a little boy, and a cart end horse, to the Droysden station, and asked fur the leather, and upon his producing the advice note sent by the prosecutor, received the leather, which was placed in the cart; he signed the receipt book "T. Barnes." The police officers, who were dressed like labOuring men, walked a little way, and asked Owen to give them a ride. This be refused, and trotted off. One of the officers then followed and stopped him, and got into the cart. Owen said he was going to take the leather to a house belonging to the prisoner Howard, whom he said he did not know, in the Thetford New-road, in Hulme. The officer then took him into custody, and at a house which, from information which was re ceived, was watched by the police, they apprehended the prisoners Howard and Russell. Russell was ad mitted to bail, but not appearing, his recognizances were estreated. Further inquiries were then made, and it was found that Howard had taken an empty house near Droysden station, but that it remained unfurnished, and that he only went there to receive letters, and that the letters which he received were addressed "J. Howard and Co." No person of the name, however, carried on any business at Droysden, and there was no such place as Ladywell Works. Mr. SOWLER and Mr. ATKINSON then addressed the jury on behalf of the prisoners; and his Lordship having summed up, the jury retired, and had not delivered their verdict when our report left. POL aIN TELLIGkN CE. SOUTH W ARK. Lieutenant Bradshaw, of the Royal Artillery, was summoned before Mr. A'Beckett for committing an assault on George Richardson, a guard in the employ of the South-Eastern Railway Company. Mr. Church, the solicitor of the railway company, stated that the present charge was one not of a very aggravated nature, but still it was one that the com pany were bound to take notice of. The defendant (Lieutenant Bradshaw) was an officer in her Ma jesty's service, and ought to have known how to con duct himself, but, instead of promoting that etiquette which was conducive to regimental discipline, he actually assaulted one of their guards while in the due execution of his duty. He called George Richardson, who said he was guard of the Woolwich train on Friday evening the Bth of August, and it was his duty to accompany the train to Wool wich. He saw Lieutenant Bradshaw with two dogs, one of which he put in the dog box, and said he wanted another for the other; in fact, he said he wanted separate boxes. . Witness told him there was no other dog box, and there was room for it where the other was. Deiendant replied that the dog should not go there, as there was no ventilation. There were four laths on each door, and frequently three or four dugs were placed in the dog box. The defendant then seiz.d hold of one of his dogs, and attempted to v o e i n t to it d, i . u nd e icn fi m ,-st :d c i l a a: .:iy s e t rriage. This wirce;:s ore acaeftge dug in a second claws Lieutenant Brsd. sham endeavou re d t o place c ar r ia g e "long the soldiers. The time was neatly up for the train to start. Witness took be dog away from him, when he struck him over the mouth, and once on the breast. TRADITIONS FROM REMOTE PERIODS THROUGH FEW lIANDS:—Again in 1784, on a visit to my grandfather in the county of Limerick, during a school vacation. I heard him then, in his 88th year, say, that hi 1714, on the acces sion to the British throne of the present Royal dynasty, he heard in Cork, where he was at school, a conversation be tween several gentlemen on this change in the reigning fa mily, when one of them, a Mr. Martin, said that he was born the same day as Charles IL, on the 29th of May, 1631. and was present at the exozution of Charles 1., the 29th of January, 1619. Ms family then resided ifi London, where be .loind Cromwell's Irun , ides, and thence accompanied them to Ireland. The transfer to him of some forfeited pro perty naturally induced him to settle there. Thu-, between me and the eye-witness of the regicidal ea astrophe, ouly one person intervenes. --Notes and Qael ies. A NICE SUMAILIX Dathic.—Before my departure from Macon, I supped iu the large room of the hotel. I hat frequently observed the sinzwar mixtures which many of the Americans iuske at their meals. I observed that a gentleman, Ater callit g for a glass of milk, deliberately shook a portion of the contents of the pepper• box into it, and having added a teaspoonful of salt, stirred the whole together, and drank it. There is cer, ainly no accounting for taste, but this. arnoug all the strange comp oun d s which I met with in the United State,., was the most extraordinary.—Colonel Canyugloone's Glimpse at the Western Republic. POPISH A EtROGANCE.—Tne Tablet calla the pre. labs of the Established Church "the supe:inteudents of certain Protestant congregations, appointed by the State to receive stolen goods, and to teach falsehoods. Mr. Church—Wa4 it an ordinary train or a spa cial one ? Witness—lt was an ordinary train, chit fly occupied by the soldiers. Lieu errant Bradsh:Lw—Did you not touch my epaulette ? Witness-4 merely assisted in taking your dog away. I never unsuited you. .1 1 1 THURSDAY E VENING, . 21, 1851. PRICES OF SHARES IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COI& PANIES' STOCK.

THE PaTATO BLlGHT.—Pembrokeshire is by no means exempt from the potato blight. particularly round the neighbourhood ;,f Milford Haven. Fiend after field has suf fered the withering influence of ibis pestiferous scourge , and it is enough to deter t e farmers from planting this useful root again in any l arge quan titi es . M an y of the labouring poor who bad high expectations of a plentiful crop from their little plantings, feel it a most serious deprivation from their winter's store. We wish some of our talentedagrecul tural chemists would point out the cause of this blight and suggest au effectual remudy, as the disease m:sst be the re sult of some chemical change and founded on cause and effect. —Welshman.
