This famous collection may extinct, as the last lot was sent off by the eleven o'clock express train I:lowE:bs:covirn3siiicrere station, on Friday morning, in charge from the Lime-street curator, and two assistants. There were° r. Thompson the three railway l o ads, consisting of th e Eland antelo pes , the 1 truck some smaller animals and birds. These were for the Zoo oryx, and logical Society's collec tion in London. The larger o animals w were carefully arranged in cases, well padded, and other s i protected, to ensure the ir safety on their journey. Nearl: the whole of the birds and animals were packed and sent ell' by Mr. Thompson and Mr. Moore, the secoad curator; and so far as their services were in requisition, we are happy to learn that no injury was sustained, the birds and beasts ar riving safely at their destination, both in this country and in Holl an d and Italy, which were the chief places to which those specimens purchased by foreigners were sent. The same success, we understand, attended the removal of that portion of the collection taken away direct by the purchasers, with one exception, the animal, a zebra , fro m some unex plained cause, dying on the journey. —Liverpool Courier. EXTRAORDINARY DISCOVERY.—We are informed that while drat the preparing a vault in the south isle of the cathe dral other day, the workmen, though fortunate eno u g h come just between two others, yet made a remarkable dis covery.

There are things, however, of which it is abso lutely necessary that public opinion in Europe should be informed. In my own country, momentarily crushed, the preis is dumb : I have recourse to that of a free people. Nothing is finished, Sir. A mock Caaiar, supported by his drunken pretorian guards, cannot impose him self on France. It is not by cannon shot that the French revolution can be driven back. Nothing is finished. This is what every one says ; it is at least what every one thinks. If I had only to prove this my letter would be useless. But one fact stands forth in the history of our recent disasters, unforeseen, strange, most important to explain, and of which the key is to be found in the information which I have received since my de parture from London. That an army of 100,000 men, disciplined, expe rienced, formed of chosen regiments, and supported by a formidable artillery, should have held Paris i❑ check—Paris taken unprepared—Paris long since disarmed—Paris without ammunition and without pikes—what is there surprising in this ? And yet, had the faubourgs thrown themselves en masse into the insurrection, of two things one would assuredly have happened. Either this army of 100,000 men would have been destroyed, or Louis Bonaparte would have escaped the execrable distinction of remain ing erect amid corpses and ruins—so great is the in trepidity of the people of Paris ; such is the devotion, such the intelligence which it brings to the combats of liberty. But the working men, taken cn masse, have not engaged in the struggle. This is certain. Why is it so ? _ _ _ Why ? Because their first words were " C'est bien fait," when they heard of the dissolution of the As sembly which had sickened and disgusted them ; when they heard of the arrest of M. Thiers, who had spoken of them as the rile multitude, of the arrest of General Cavaignac, who in the month of June had fired upon and decimated their ranks ; and of General Changarnier, of whom the reactionists boasted as a captain capable of insulting by the use of the whip, as well as of striking with the sword. Placed between the maintenance of the robber law of May and the pretended restitution of universal suf frage, between the danger of a monarchical restora tion and that of a sham republic, between the obsti nate denial of its rights and a hypocritical homage rendered to its sovereignty, the people retired, leaving the field to the two tyrannies, of which one would serve to destroy the other, and reserving its blood for less equivocal triumphs. The defeat of the President, might it not result in the reinstalla tion of the Assembly, repudiating the people in in surrection after having drained its life blood, pro claiming itself the only legitimate power, taking pos session of the army, creating for its own purposes a Parliamentary dictator, and taking into its service some new ill-omened hero of June; and then, with loaded cannon, turned against the people, how could they come and demand a reckoning from their new master? It is true that the victory of the President was also an immense peril. But here at least one resource re mained to try—the vote. It is true on the other hand, that the people once master of the streets, would have been more in a po sition to dictate than to submit to laws ; but it had already so often had to see, in the confusion which follows a battle, France robbed of the price of the victory which had been gained. Distrust had even been shown towards it, and in its turn it was dis trustful. The other day the Times, speaking for the representatives of the bourgeoisie, supposed them to say, Non tali auxilio nec defensoribus istis. Alas ! the people on its side, with regard to the representa tives of the bourgeoisie, has had the very same senti ment which these words express. Here is the hor rible, the melancholy fatality which has denominated the occasion. God grant that this experience may be profitable to all. It has become absolutely necessary that the bourgeoisie should lay on one side its unjust sus picions, stretch a friendly hand to the people, and con sent henceforth to be one with it. Here is the only safety of liberty and civilization. How profound and terrible a lesson! The members of the Parliamentary majority had triumphantly inaugurated the system of the state of siege—and behold they themselves are made to un dergo its utmost rigours. They had disarmed their fellow-citizens ; and be hold arms are wanting against the sanguinary domi nation of the soldier. They had never ceased to decry the constitution ; by their law of May they destroyed it ; and the con stitution is no longer a protection to them. They had allowed the principle of national repre sentation to be odiously outraged in the persons of their colleagues of the Loft; and drunken corporals now lay rough hands upon them. When the Mountain revolted against the people being called the vile multitude, they cried out with insolent irony, "allons done," and when they seek a people ready to fight for their quarrel, those who would have combatted may say—" And is this, then, the vile multitude, which is not fit to rote, fit to die ? A lions done." Thii is the immortal lesson contained in the events which have now occurred. I repeat it—let its bearing he studied, let it be understood. The bourgeoisie and the people must be one, and all is saved. And when I say " all is saved," I speak not only 01 France. To divide Europe into three great empires—a Russian empire extending to Constantinople; an Aus trian empire, with the definitive annexation of Italy ; a French empire, with the addition of Belgium. From this new holy alliance between these three despotic empires to cause to arise a war to the death against the Democratic party, and against the Liberal and Constitutional party; todistinguish between the armies' tread what the absolutist powers call the revolutionary flame—that is to say, whatever lights the human spirit on the way of progress—and if England resists to crush her. . . . . Such is the plan (who can doubt it longer ?)—such is the sacrilegious plan of which the sack of Paris is the commencement, and for the accomplishment of which Louis Bonaparte has delivered France into the hands of French Cossacks. On the reality of this plan, and on the abominable complicity which binds to the fortune of the Emperor Nicholas the ambition of Louis Bonaparte, I may be able very shortly to publish some proofs, which I am now in course of collecting. We can then judge of the important influence which Russian gold exercises in the humiliation and misfortunes of France. Meanwhile, Sir, it is indispensable that Europe should know that the issue of these last events is at tributable neither to the indifference of the people nor to the cooling of its spirit —nor, least of all, to its Bonapartism —a word impossible to write without a blush. And this will remain true, even should the result of a shameless management of the vote appear to indicate the contrary. No, no ; the people of France has not deserted all its traditions of courage, of noble pride, of devotion to liberty. Adopting the famous expres sion which Sieyes applied to the Assembly of 1789, fallen for a moment under the blow of brute force— " The people is to-day what it was before." Dec. 9, 1851. OPENING OF THE SAXON CHAMBERS. ROYAL SPEECH. The following is the most important passage in the speech of the King of Saxony on opening the Chambers on the 6th inst. : " The German Zollverein, whose beneficial opera tion, during the eighteen years it has existed, I have at all times recognized, and whose preservation and extension have always been the objects of my earnest wishes and endeavours, has sustained a shock by the recent notice of the expiration of its treaties that I deplore. But as it is my sincere conviction that this wholesome institution rests on a just and unpreju diced recognition of mutual claims and necessities, so I have no doubt that the disturbance will only be temporary, and that the alliance broken for the moment will be quickly, and lastingly reunited. I have, therefore, received the satisfactory ex planations with which the Prussian Government ac companied the circular, inviting the other states of the Union to new negotiations, with confidence. It has given me special satisfaction to learn that the Prussian Government in this new organizatio❑ of the Zollve rein contemplates a general commercial and customs union of the German states as the object of its en deavours. I have, therefore greeted, with the same pleasure, the step the Imperial Government of Aus tria has undertaken for the furtherance of this object, as by the assurance of that unity, though reserved for the future, with which the best hopes of the power and prosperity of Germany are connected, the re-es tablishment and extension of the Zollverein, to the advantage of the collective body, will be so much the more easily attained." ne T ws he of co th in e e p r r Z e e n it c lu h u E ng G s i RE COUNT DE CHAMBORD AND THE ra revolution itstB rr h oS a m. s Vprieendnuace,dthaatptrlote. found sensation among the Legitimists at Frohsdorf. Immediately after the arrival of the first telegraphic dispatches from Paris, the Count de Chambord and the Duke de Blacas had an interview with Prince Schwarzenberg, and on the Gth inst. the Duke de Blacas left Vienna for Brussels. It is stated that Prince Schwarzenberg advised the two Princes to proceed with the utmost caution and foresight, and that he pointed out to them that Id, L. Bonaparte was entitled to the " moral" support of the foreign Cabinets, since he had the confidence of the army, which was the sole guarantee for the preservation of peace and order. It is supposed that the Duke de Blacas will not now publish the proclamation with which he set out, but that the Legitimists will be in structed to grant a temporary obedience to the present ruler of France. A Berlin Absolutist journal thus rates the "de scendant of St. Louis" for his want of pluck. " With shame and sorrow we stand in the presence of the most recent events—with shame because we blush at the cowardice of those who assert the same principles as ourselves; with sorrow, because the history of two centuries teaches us that the develope ment of France is the precursor of that of the nations of the Continent. Where is King Henry V. of France ? Is he waiting still for the summons of his faithful people ? Does he not understand the sighs and com plaints of his unhappy country, which longs for free dom and a Monarchy in vain. It may be pleasanter anywhere else at this moment than on the bloody pave ments of Paris ; but God will require the blood of his people at his hands as long as he calls himself King of France. Till now he may have quieted his conscience with the idea that it did not become him to ctimmence a c i v il wa r in France; but now the President of the Republic has laid the train to the magazine, the King' is deprived of the last pretext, and history will fix a brand on his name if he loses his crown by inaction. In what has Louis Napoleon the advantage of him that he can succeed in blowing away the pri vileged praters of France like dust ? In what is he better if he should even succeed in making himself for a time the master of Prance ? In nothing but energy ; in all other qualities he is his inferior. Our judgment of the President remains unaltered ; we call the coup d'etat an act of despotism, perjury, and treason ; the evil seed will bear evil fruit, and we shall maintain all this even should the usurper gain in appearance a complete victory." The Prussian Military Journal considers the chances of Henry V. greatly increased by the late convulsion, and its remarks on the event itself are not without interest, as it represents an influential portion of the military intelligence of Prussia : " What has happened and what is yet to happen is not the end but the beginning of something unknown, great, perhaps enough to shake the world. An army that feels its power, and suddenly sees the proof of it before it, will use and apply it; and as barricades will no longer give it much to do, the regiments will become Parliamentary councils, where will be discussed what farther is to done, what more is to be gained. The French funds hare risen, the Prussian funds very slightly declined ; for to-day and to-morrow this is a superfluous consolation. ' The thing is done—it could not be otherwise,' say the politicians of the Exchange. No, the thing is not done and ended. Such a flood of events will not be lost in the sand, unless it is the sand of a battlefield I The intelligence of the bayonets' —a puppet which has been played with from the tribune— has been embodied, is present, has been employed, and its all crushing activity has been recognized. It is a gloomy prelude, even though a momentary advantage should spring from it. If the French army withstands this temptation, the most fatal of all, it will be truly worthy of all admiration. We admit that our heart beats when we reflect on all the possible consequences. A Legitimacy defended by an army is wonderfully strong ; a Legitimacy created by the army has no future." LAW INTELLIGENCE. SHERIFFS' COURT, Dec. 11. FALSE IMPRISONMENT-JARVIS V. KINGSMILL. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) A female who was a laundress to Mr. Wilson, and who washed the linen of Mr. Wilson previously to his going abroad, deposed to calling on Richards to explain that they had taken the wrong person, but she was disbelieved. For the defendant it was contended that the detention of the plaintiff wai to a great extent attributable to his own conduct, and that it was evident that he had been lending himself to the mistake in order to shield his friend Mr. Wilson. Richards was called, and the main point in his evi dence was, that having made many inquiries he felt satisfied that they had got the wrong party, and on the Thursday, when plaintiff gave him an indemnity, witness took it, and said that he (plaintiff) might go as early as he liked in the morning, but plaintiff remained and dined at the hotel till the afternoon. Hart promised to in demnify witness for taking plaintiff, whom, he said, he well knew, as they had dined together the day before. Hart had given him a paper, which, however, witness had destroyed. Richards, jun., said that he had been sent by plaintiff to Mr. Wilson's for linen, and on the Thursday he saw a collar on plaintiff's dressing-table, and took it to his father and mother, and there was the name of Wilson on it. Witness had taken notes to Wilson's, and had others in return, but they were not addressed. Mr. Henry Field, an attorney at Gosport, proved that about ten o'clock in the evening of Thursday, the 25th June, ho went to Richards, and saw Hart, and afterwards went up stairs and saw plaintiff, and said— " Sir, I am an attorney; Mr. Richards has sent to con fell; me about your arrest, as ho informs me you say you are not the right person. If you can refer me to aoy re'pectable person in the neighbourhood who knows you, and can vouch you are not Lieutenant Wilson, you will be discharged at once." No," said plaintiff, very carelessly, " I don't know that any body knows me in the town. Witness said the officer tells me that you have named a Mr. Halliday, of Hasler. I know him well, and I will send to him it you wish. Plaintiff answered very carelessly, " Well, I d, n't know ; be does not know much about me, and perhaps he would not like to bo troubled." I (witness) s aid, " Well, then, sir, if you do not wish to refer to him, I must wish you good night." Went down stairs, and saw Richards, and said, " Richards, from the cool indiffeeence with which the gentleman up stairs treats the matter , I have no doubt that ho is Lieutenant Wil son." His Wilt was so in consequence of plaintiff tak ing it so "easy. The UNDER SHERIFF said it did not appear to him that a party rightly arrested would take it so easy. Witness said it was still more unlikely that an inno cent person would take it so easy. Edward Hart said he was brother to the plaintiff in the action against Wilson, and said that when he went to Mrs. Wilson's he saw defendant, and took him to be Lieutenant Wilson, and was confirmed in his belief by seeing boxes with his name on it. The servant girl had previously told him that Lieutenant Wilson was out. He denied that the plaintiff said that he was not Lieu tenant Wilson. He denied that he had ever given any written or verbal indemnity to Richards, and never told him he knew defendant. He did not know him. He did not tell Richards that he had been with him at the Argyll Rooms the day before. He only went down in consequence of information. Mr. PRENTIB addressed the jury in reply, and parti cularly drew their attention to the contradictions between Hart and Richards. As to the absence of the address on the notes, he urged that it was quite natural that a per son would not address a note under such circumstances, which was to be carried by a strange boy, and his name might have transpired, and it might have reached the ears of his brother officers. Whatever kindly feeling the plaintiff might have towards Richards, it did not mate rially affect the case, as in reality Hart was the party who would ultimately be responsible. The UNDER-SHERIFF briefly said that the plaintiff must have a verdict, but no special damage was alleged, such as the loss of his commission, by not joining his regiment in time. The only question was what damages the plaintiff had sustained. The jury, after a short consultation, retired. The Foreman said they differed as to whether the officer ought not to have made proper inquiry, and have released the plaintiff without requiring the indemnity. After a short time they gave a verdict for 251. FRIDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 12, lB5l. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Liverpool, Dec. 11. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron PARKE.) John Hampson, 34, was indicted for the wilful murder, at Manchester, on the 17th of August, of Mary Hampson. Mr. Monk and Mr. Assheton Cross conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Ovens defended the prisoner. The prisoner and the deceased were man and wife. By trade be was a clogger, and the woman worked in a factory. It appeared that they did not live very comfortably together, and the evidence showed that on the night of Sunday, the 17th of August last, they were quarrelling between ten and eleven o'clock. A woman of the name of Bethell saw them go into their house about five minutes before ten o'clock, and she then beard the prisoner charging his wife with drinking. She retorted that it was not at his expense, but did not deny that she had had some drink. She was, however, sober. They were heard by Mrs. Bethell to continue their angry words after they entered the house, and the prisoner was seen by her to get up several times and go towards the deceased, on each of which occasions she heard a smack as if he was striking her. About half-past ten o'clock Mice Helliwell heard the gavelling going on, and soon after saw the prisoner come out of the house, and the deceased come to the door and shout after him to go where he had been before. She then shut the door and locked it, upon which the prisoner turned back and called to her to open it, but she did not do so. He went aside as if he was going away, and the deceased then opened the door and looked out, upon which the prisoner came for ward and went in, and the door was again fastened. It would appear that soon after this a Mrs. Hargreaves, who lives in the adjoining house, was awakened by a noise as of some one falling down stairs, but was somewhat confused in her mind, and the prisoner and his wife being fre quently to her knowledge in the habit of quarrelling, she thought nothing more of it. This witness spoke to the fact of her clock having s truck .. eleven about a minute before the noise she described. There ap peared to be some discrepancy among the witnesses as to time, for George Small, a very material wit ness, proved that at five minutes past eleven he spoke to the prisoner as he was passing his door and going in the direction of his own house. In about twenty minutes he 'returned to Small's house, and, the door being then shut, he knocked until it was opened, upon which he said " My wife has fallen down stairs, and I believe she has killed herself." In reply to Small's question as to how it was, he said that he had knocked • 1 at the door, and his wife had got up out of her bed, and on her way to let him in lisd fallen down stairs and had been lying there half an hour, and the door was fast and he could not get in. Small went with the prisoner to his house, and found the door locked inside. Eventually, after Small had got a hammer to remove the fastening of the shutters, the prisoner got in through the window. Mrs. Small then came up, and the door was, at her request, opened. Upon entering they found the deceased lying on the floor in her chemise, her head being sideways on the centre of the bottom step of the stairs, and her feet pointed towards the door. There was a quantity of clotted blood where her head had lain, and she had also bled from the nose and right ear. She was quite insensible, but they raised her up, and put her on to a chair. Small begged the prisoner to go to Dr. Race, but he said it was of no use ; " what a d-- fool he should look to go for a doctor for a drunken woman." He persuaded him to go, however, and he returned, saying Dr. Race would be there directly. It would seem, however, that the prisoner never went for him. The deceased was subsequently removed to bed. She groaned once, but did not speak, but began to vomit considerably. Dr. Race had not arrived up to half-past twelve o'clock, when Small left the house. There was a clothesprop lying on the centre of the stairs when this witness first went in, and it was over this the prisoner averred that his wife had fallen. She was found with her head touching the bottom end of the prop. The deceased lingered until three o'clock on Friday morning, when she expired. Mr. Evan Thomas, surgeon—Was sent to the de ceased on Tuesday night by a Roman Catholic cler gyman, as no medical man had previously seen her. Upon examining her he found her in bed quite insen sible. There was a wound towards the temple and behind the ear, about an inch long, lacerating it very much. He considered that she was labouring under compression of the brain. On examining the body he found contusions on the left collarbone behind the right shoulder, on the left side, near the arm-pit, and a very large one about four inches in extent below the left breast, one on the right groin, one over the right knee, one inside the left knee, and several on the shins. He made a post mortem examination on the Saturday, when he found the skull fractured across the base, and a good deal of blood effused into and upon the brain, which, in other respects, was healthy. There was also a rupture on the left ear. The witness gave it as his opinion that direct vio lence must have caused the wound on the ear, unless she had fallen on something sharp, and that that had been the cause of death, and expressed himself as being perfectly satisfied that all the injuries could not have been caused by a fall down the stairs, though such a fall might have produced some of the bruises he had observed. He thought that the same blow which in his opinion inflicted the wound on the ear, misht have caused the fracture of the skull. She was five months advanced in pregnancy. Upon cross-examination, this witness said he would not say that, had she fallen, of herself even, upon the sharp edge of the stair the wound on the ear might not have been produced by such a fall. Mrs. Flinn, a woman who was in the habit of going to work at the prisoner's house, saw the de ceased on the Monday morning, when she was sen • sible but very drowsy, and she then complained of headache, and the witness bouund her head round with a handkerchief. The prisoner told her that he only pretended to go to the doctor, as it was only a drunken bout, and he did . not wish to be the laugh ingstock of the neighbourhood. The Learned JUDGE here recalled the medical man, who said, in answer to a question from his ' Lordship, that though the bruises were all recent he would not say that they might not have ben inflicted ' at different times. The Inspector of Police proved that the prisoner stated to him that his wife had fallen down stairs, and that she had told him that she was some months gone in pregnancy, and she was sure she could not re cover. This witness described the nature of the staircase in the prisoner's house, from which it ap peared that the stairs go right up into the room above, but that the banister stops short of the room by about two feet, so that the head of the staircase is left de fenceless. The deceased's sister was called to prove that she was perfectly sober on the day in question, having had nothing but a little whisky. Another inspector proved that at the bridewell, in answer to the charge of beating his wife and endan gering her life, he said, " I declare to God I did not beat her ; I merely gave her one slight tap on the head ; she fell down stairs when she was going to let me in." Mr. Race, apothecary, of Oldham-road, Man chester, who lives about 150 or 200 yards from the prisoner, proved that no one came to him on the night in question to go to the prisoner's house. Mr. OVEIVS addressed the jury on behalf of the pri soner, and contended, that no proof being given ofany malice in this case, the charge of murder could not be substantiated, and that the principal question for their consideration was whether or not this was a case of manslaughter. He urged them not to allow them selves to be prejudiced by the very natural feeling they might have from a good deal of the evidence that the prisoner had somehow er other, from his ill-treat ment, caused her death. The Learned Counsel the❑ went at some detail into the consideration of the evi dence, and concluded by leaving the case with confi dence in the hands of the jury. His LORDSHIP summed up the evidence with great minuteness, and The jury, after considering for some time in the box, retired from court, and in about half an hour re turned with a verdict of Guilty of manslaughter. Sentence was deferred. John Charles Keith, the Irish soldier, who was convicted on Monday of assault and robeery, was called up, and having received from the sergeant of his regiment an excellent character, was sentenced to six months imprisonment. NISI PRIUS COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice ERLE.) Patrick O'Toole, who was yesterday convicted of not surrendering under a fiat in bankruptcy, was sentenced this morning to be transported for seven years. John Kilburn was indicted for having, at Liverpool, unlawfully and by force and violence assaulted, re sisted, and obstructed George Jones, he being an officer of the Customs, and in the execution of his office. The jury convicted the prisoner, at the same time recommending him to mercy. The Learned JUDGE, in passing sentence, said that it was of great importance that officers should be pro tected in the discharge of a public duty ; but, taking into consideration that the prisoner had hitherto borne an irreproachable character, and the recommendation of the jury, he thought the ends of justice would be attained by sentencing him to six months' impri sonment. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Dec. 11. (Before Mr. IVITHANI, Deputy-Assistant Judge, and a bench of Magistrates, at the Guildhall, \Test- minster.) Edward Clarke, aged 28, a tailor, was indicted, charged with having unlawfully and maliciously as saulted Maria Susannah, his wife. It appeared that the prosecutrix was the wife of the defendant, and that they had resided at No. 30, Stephen-street, Rathbone•place, and that on the night of the 21st ult. she had returned home at about half-past eleven o'clock, having been to the theatre with her brother. Upon her arrival at home she said she should like to have some porter, whereupon her husband remarked, " that she had had enough already, and should have no more." The prosecutrix said " she had not had anything to drink," and, on her making this statement, her husband struck her a vio lent blow on the chest, which knocked her down. She got up, and her husband was about to strike her again, when she seized hold of a washhand basin as a means of self-defence. The basin, however, fell from her hand, as from the effects of the blow and fall she had not sufficient strength to hold it. The defendant had taken off his boots, and one of them he now picked up and struck his wife on the head with the heel of it. On the heel chanced to be an iron tip. On re ceiving this blow she fell to the floor insensible, and bleeding profusely from a wound produced by the heel of the boot. She could not tell anything that took place afterwards until she found herself in bed ; and Elizabeth West, a found woman who had been staying at her lodgings with her, produced a hand kerchief used in stanching the blood—it was com pletely saturated. On the Saturday night the defen dant came home about half-past twelve o'clock, and found her iu bed. lie said , " Oh, you are in bed, are you, d— you ;" and declared he would have some beer. She told him it was too late to get beer, but he said it was not, and the people in the house selling beer, the young woman West went down to see if she could get some for him. When she was gone down the wife got out of bed, took her husband by the arm, and wishing thin gs t o b e agreea bl e , asked him not to be ridiculous, and to get into bed. He pushed her from him with great violence, and said he was not going to bed with her that night, and directly afterwards he took up a hammer which was used for breaking coals, and struck her with it at the back of her right ear. He was about to re peat the blow when she held up her hand, and the hammer caught one of her fingers and cut it severely. She then fell down insensible. When she recovered she found herself bruised in various parts of her per son as if from kicks, and she was taken to University Hospital.—(The hammer was produced.) Elizabeth West, the young woman referred to by the prosecutrix, gave corroborative evidence. She stated that while the prosecutrix was lying insensible on the ground on Friday night the defendant kicked her violently in various parts of her person. After the prosecutrix recovered she threw a candlestick at him, and when witness saw him strike her with heel of his boot she was so frightened that she ran out of the room. After wards she got the prosecutrix into bed and bathed her head, which was cut open on the top. On the Saturday night after he had struck her with the hammer witness saw him kick her in the lower part of the abdomen. She called out for as sistance, for she saw the prosecutrix was insensible. She did not see him use the hammer, but she found it afterwards under the table. She could not say whether there were any marks of blood on it. The defendant asked the witness if she had not said to his wife that it was her (the wife's) fault, as she bad aggravated him when he was in a good temper. Witness denied having ever done so. A person named Hockley, residing in the same house, said he overheard the disturbance in the dc fendant's room on the Friday and Saturday nights. On the latter occasion he remonstrated with the de fendant, and called him a few vile names for beating his wife, when he said he would have a glass of beer with witness, and tell him all about it. He asked witness if he should like his wife to keep had hours and do bad things. Witness at that time saw the hammer in the defendant's coat pocket. He thought it was a poker, and called out to that effect. Madierow, 126 E, said he was called about two o'clock on the morning of Sunday, the 231 of Novem ber, to No. 30, Stephen-street. He went up to the defendant's room and saw the prosecutrix lying on the floor insensible—her head in a pool of blood. There was a wooed as long as his finger on the top of her head, and another wound at the back of her ear. He discovered the latter at the hospital. He found the handkerchief produced. There were several per sons in the room. He asked if any of them would charge the defendant. No answer was given, and thinking it likely from what he had seen that the woman would die, he took him on his own respon sibility. The defendant, in answer to the case, complained that his wife had kept late hours. On the Friday night she did not get home until half-past twelve, and when he asked her where she had been, she said she had been to the theatre to see the " Bloomers." He asked her what theatre, and she told him to mind his own business. He charged her with having been to a Mrs. Robertson's, when she told him to trouble his head with his own concerns, and to go and leave the place, as she bad not taken the room in his name, and the sooner he was gone the better. She excited him by saying that, and he struck her, upon which she took up a knife, and threw a candlestick at him. He threw his boot at her, but, whether that cut her head, or whether it was cut through her falling down, he could not tell. On the Saturday night she struck him because he refused to sleep with her. He toll the young woman West to sleep with her, and that he should sleep in her bed. She was very violent and threw things about, and the bruises she got were from falls, not kicks. This was denied by the prosecutrix and the witness West. The policeman said the prosecutrix was taken to the hospital on a stretcher, and, when there, she had above 20 fits. Her ribs were severely bruised ; there was a running wound in her leg as if a piece bad been kicked out ; and she appeared to have been sub jected to a long course of brutal treatment. The surgeon at the hospital said he bad never seen a woman in so emaciated a condition from ill-usage. 'est said she had lived with the prosecutrix by way of protection, as she was afraid her husband would murder her. The DEPUTY .JUDGE having summed up, The jury at once returned a verdict of Guilty. The brother of the prosecutrix now stood forward and stated she had gone with him to the theatre on Friday night, he having met her in the street as she was leaving work. The defendant had used her most brutally for three years, and her family, who lived in the country, were afraid, when they heard of a man having murdered his wife in Marylebone, that prose cutrix was the victim, knowing, as they did, that they lived in that part of the town, and that Clarke was continually ill-treating her. Onlya fortnight before this her father had to interfere for her protection, and she was never free from black eyes. They had only lived in Stephen•street a fortnight, and the last place they lived in they had notice to leave and their rent was given them. The young woman West said the prosecutrix al ways was afraid the defendant would murder her. She had never been free from black eyes caused by the defendant's violence since she had known her. The DEPUTY. JUDGE sentenced the defendant to imprisonment with hard labour for twelve months. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. William James Millson, who has from time to time appeared under the aliases of Chadwick, Williams, Baillie, and Dr. Barris, and described himself as seneschal of Lincoln, the rejected candidate for the borough of St. Alban's, as well as a preacher and member of the Society of Friends, was brought up for further examination on ♦arious charges of obtaining money under false pretences, and other wise defraud ing a great number of tradesman. Mr. Vann attended, as on the former occasion, for the prosecution, and Mr. Bury Hutchinson for the prisoner. The prisoner was committed for trial on the first charge preferred against him, and on which he was apprehended. The same bail was consented to. WORSHIP-STREET. Henry Le Noir and James Smith, two determined looking fellows, were charged with having been con cerned in several ingenious robberies. The prisoners declined offering any answer' and they were committed until that day week for the completion of the evidence. LAMBETH. Mary Cole, a girl of eighteen years of age, was placed at the bar for final examination on a charge of wilfully setting fire to the house of her mistress. The prisoner, who seemed to treat the charge with apparent indifference, was fully committed for trial. CLERKENIVELL. James Shaw, a determined looking Irishman, was charged by Margaret Death, a young woman, with having brutally assaulted her. The prosecutris, who was dreadfully disfigured, said that for some time past she had cohabited with the prisoner as his wife. Oa Wednesday night, at ten o'clock, she left her residence, No. 20, Bell-court, Gray's Inn-lane, and went to a public-house in the neighbourhood to request him to accompany her home. He refused to do so, but beat her most shame fully on the head with a tin warming-can, and would have murdered her had it not been for the in terference and assistance of some persons present, who called a policeman and gave the prisoner into custody. Mr: TYRWHITT fined the prisoner 403., or one month's imprisoniment. On the instant the sentence was passed the prisoner made a spring, leaped over the bar, and, with his clenched fist, stru c k th e prosecu t r i x a desperate blow on her head, which knocked her down. He then kicked her on the side. and was about to jump upon her body, when he was seized and pinioned by several policemen, and prevented doing further mischief. After a most determined resistance he was again placed at the bar, aril charged with the second asssult, when he was fined 51, or two months' impri sonment with hard labour in the House of Correction. William Kee ly, aged 16, was charged by John Buckley, a young man, with having stabbed him with intent to murder him. The prosecutor was in a very weakly state through loss of blood, and was allowed a seat while he gave his evidence. He fainted several times, and was evi•• dently suffering great pain. Mr. TTRWHITT asked the prisoner what he had to say to so serious a charge P He said—l did it because he kicked me. The prosecutor denied this. Mr. TYEWIIITT said he would remand the prisoner for a week, when the fate of the injured man could be made known. Ile was taken back to the hospital. SEABORNE MAILS.
