By Mr. CHANDERs—Mr. William Paxton and a page waited upon the party at dinner, and generally my sister in-law acted as chambermaid on that occasion. .Mary Maxfield—l was a lady's-maid in the service of Mrs. Gl:levee, who was first cousin to Sir Gregory. She is now dead. During her lifetime she used to visit Sir Gregory, in the Alpha road. I had opportunities of seeing him with her. He was not like other gentlemen. In October, 1841, I went to Brighton with Mrs. Graves, who travelled in a carriage with Sir Gregory. William Paxton was one of the party. The housemaid, the page, and the coachman of Lady Turfer also went to Brighton, an did Sutton, the barber. Sir Gregory and Mrs. Graves had dinner together. Sir Gregory said he was allowed seven glasses of wine by the doctor. The quantity was measured three or four times before lac was satisfied that he had got geed measure. John, the page, used to attend him to bed, end slept in the room with him. John put or let out the light on one occasion, and Sir Gregory would not allow him to sleep any longer in his room. Sutton then slept with him. Lady Turner was expected to come to Brighton, but did not come. I remember a ktter coming from her on a Saturday which was read by Mrs. Graves in the hearing of Sir Gregory. I slept in the same room with Mrs. Graves, but not in the same bed. On the night on which the letter came Sir Gregory came into Mrs. Graves's room with a page behind him with a lantern. They had both got their clothes on. Sir Gregory asked who was Mrs. Graves.—(Laughter.) Mrs. Graves said she was Mrs. Graves. Sir Gregory had Lady Turner's letter in his hand, I think; ho said he wished to have Lady Page's letter read (meaning Lady Turner). Mrs. Graves wished mo to get out of bed and bring a light to her. I took a candle and held it over the foot of the bed, and Sir Gregory stood by Mrs. Graves's side. Mrs. Graves, who was in bed, then read the letter to him. The page stood behind near the door with the lantern. I did not cry out murder or any other thing.— (Laughter.) Whilst the le ter was read he asked me if that was correct. He then requested Mrs. Graves to read it a second, a third and a fourth time, which she did. After that, Sr Gr g ,ry and the page left the room and weat to bed. Sir Gregory used very often to walk about and talk during the night. I re member a subsequent occasion, when he came and knocked at Mrs. Graves's bedroom door, in the middle of the night. I believe Mrs. Graves got up and answered him at the door. He said to her chat John, the page, had stolen all his things. She told him to go to bed, and he cared John a d—d vagabond. I remember one morning Mrs. Graves saying at breakfast that she had lost a sovereign. Sir Gregory re plied that he hid lost a piece of paper out of his room. I went into the yard and found a piece of paper underneath his bedroom windows, about half the size of a letter cover. It was a plain piece of paper, without any writing on it. Whilst at Brighton, I re member Sir Gregory throwing the Venetian blinds out of the dining-room window. I remember his preferring to have me to his bedroom instead of John one night. He told me to sit down, which I did. Ile then removed u sets from the drawing-room into his bedroom. He lay on the sofa, and I sat by his side on a chair. The door and window were shut. He got up and opened the window; and he said, " When the window is opened the door must be shut." He then shut the window and opened the door. That he did three times. Lord CAMPBELL—A new system of ventilation. Examination continued.—He then asked me to sing.— (Much lattekter.) This was about six or seven ,in the s evening. I did sing to him.—(Laughter.) I sang a -vets of some song, the name of which I cannot remem ber. Ile sad " That will do; that will do," and I went away. I was afraid, because he looked so strange. By the JUDGE —I was no: afraid he was going to make an V, iino"oper proposal to me. i E s xamieation continued—When we were at Brighton Paxton paid the bills. When we returned from Brighton Mrs. Graves, Sir Gr gory, and Paxton travelled inside the carriene. and three of the servants, myself among them, outside. Cross-examined by Mr. CHAMBERS —MIII. Graves died in tke same year as Sir Gregory. I have lived since her death at Newberry, in service. I am now living as housemaid with Mr. Russell at Dulwich. I am not a rnarrieil woman. When the wine was measured out to Sir Gregory three glasses of sherry and four of pert were measured out to him. I have seem him sucking out of an empty bottle.—(Laughter.) He had also some brandy at Brighton, which he wished to have neat.— (Laughter.) 'That was the occasion when he lay on the sots. The night on which the letter came he had had a little of the neat. Se phen Mackay—l have been engaged since 1839 in atteedance on lunatics. I was attached to Dr. War burton's eiltablishint nt at Iloxton. I there went by the r:tt no of West. 1 was sent to Gloucester-place to at tend im Sir Gregery Turner by Li,. Warburton. The first semis en tnanl en 3 i, nt tEere w is in June,lB42, and that was to relieve Mr. liiiiik, vein, was going away for a day. Oil Sir Gregory knowing that Rook was going away, he was very pl,iscd with one at first, but after• warns exrres,:cd a wish to have Rack back again the same day. Lady Turner ordered the carriage to take him out to pacify him. I accompanied them into the Park. I could not succeed in pacifying him. The coachman, consequently, drove the party to Rook'. house in the alpha-road to bring him back. We brought look back, and I returned io Hoxton. Some weeks after that—viz. between the end cf July and the first week in August. 1842—1 was sent by Dr. Warburton to be in regular attendance on Sir Gregory, -in coduriction with Rook. • I remained with him till his death. When I returned on the • cond occasion Sir Gregory's speech was affected very much, and he appeared like a p(4sun who had been suffering from pare!) sis. His habits end manners were iheee of a china rot of a man. Medicines were ad ministered to him from time to time, which we gave him in tea and other mixtures. The habit of not going to the w . iter-cioset was still upon him, and there was a pan kept in the room. His body was very much debilitated at that time. On such occasions he stood upright, and I and another sere obliged to farce him down. During the time I stays 1 with him he exercised no free will of any kind, nor was he ca pable of taking care of himself. He had no c4 , mmand of money at that time. I was present at his sieestA; he died in an epileptic fit. He had been subject to these fits during the time I was there. Dress -examined by Mr. CHAMBERS—Lie did not die in a %cry violent fit; nature was quite worn o u t. Mrs. Beechey— am the wife of Captain Beechey. In August, 1840, I accompanied my husband to see Sir Gregory in the Alpha-road. That was the first time I sem him. We took tea with Sir Gregory and Lady Tur ner. We stayed from about eight to ten o'clock. I considered Sir Gregory - rather an imbecile person. I thought he was very unequal to conversation. He merely bowed on being spoken to; he spoke for a short time, hut he could not support conversation. He had a thick utterance. I saw him again on the last day of May, 1841. I went with my daughter. Lady Turner called for us in the carriage, and we drove with her and Sir G - egory to a place in the neighbourhood of Hornsey. Sir Gregory seemed on that occasion rather weaker in intellect. He spolee very little. At the termination of the drive we stopped at un inn to bait the horses. ''.',. Gregory asked fur some beer as refreshment. He subsequently had some beer. We took a walk in the village; and I observed the boys about the place took a great deal of notice of him as being rather a strange person. Captain Beechey—l am the husband of the last wit ness. I rein , tuber going with my wife to see Sir::Gregory Turner. That was the first time I saw him. I remem ber perfectly well starting several suejects of conversa tion into which we could not go very deep. Those were the general topics of the day. He made a merely casual or superficial remark when we spoke of them. Our conver sation was necessarily very limited; he seemed incapable of talking on the subjects which were started. .1. next saw him in Montagu -square, when nothing passed be tween us but a bow of recognition. I saw him once more in Gloucester-place ; I cannot fix the date. I ima gine it was the latter part of 1841, or beginning of 1842. Or, that occasion he merely said, " Good moruieg; what's the news?" Nothing more Las el, for he was ii capable of conversing. He was sitting at breakfast, in ale middle of the day, and he did not get up. lie spoke very thick, and he articulated with great difficulty. Kook was not present on that occasion, but I believe ho was_ in an adj o i n i ng room , th oug h I did not see him. Mr. John North—l am a surgeon residing at No. 9A, Gloucester-place, which is nearly opposite to the house Occupied by Sir G regory T urner. In May, 1842, I was 1 d in to attend him. paroxysm of epilepsy, sufficil found him in a v i o l en t ent! yviolent to endanger his lite wasl, inasmuch as it accompanied with par a ly s i s . This was on th e 7th Ma y sawh i itm l also on the Bth and 9th. I was n o t his regular m , dca r t o t x tnt, and f I fency I was merely c a ll e d i n from the P house. I saw him again on t h e 11th May, when he o lYex hibit, d ail the ordinary feebleness consequent upon epi leptic attacks. I saw him i n the presenceof his keeper, but I think that was not on th e fi rst occasion. The keeper vas not there from any violence Manifested by Sir Gresnory, though some degree of - restraint was ne cessary. I efrerwards saw it Gregory in in chair on the baleen,. of his house, cillieg out so as to excite the at tention of passers by. The centre drawinn-room window Will open. I raw the arm of a man put out to draw him ionbut not with violence.. Dr. James Sutherland—l was thirty years physician at St. Lulre'e. I have been in practice since ISOri.

Ao is being thought irrational as to his . .4 ~;,,,„____„,....,..,..;,. „~ THE SUN, LONDON, conduct. It was part of our instructions to see whether he had made extravagant purchases which he had not taken care of. I examined Sir Gregory in the presence of those gentlemen three times before we went , down to Battlesden. The result was, my impression that his mind then laboured under delusion, chiefly on the subject of the dread of infection, which induced him to avoid going to the water-closet and to shut up his linen. He stated that his son, who had died, was murdered by 1 Mr. Green, the medical man, frens not acting up to his instructions, and by not putting restoratives into the child's month after its death. He said:Sir Thomas Ac land had been brought to life by similar means. He became angry under the idea that the child had been murdered, and I believe he threatened Mr. Green with an action. After going down to Battlesden, we communicated with Sir Gregory's counsel, who 1 were then of opinion that they could not ucces3fully resist the commission. We went down to Battlesden where we saw a collection of valueless things combined with things of the greatest value, all I heaped up in one mass and covered over with old car pets. In July, 1824, I saw Sir Gregory three times by I order of the Lord Chancellor and made a report to his Lordship on each of those occasions. When I saw him in 1824 his disease had net in the least lessened. I saw him three times in 1825, with Sir Henry Halford, when he was still the same. I also saw him in April and May, 1826, before the trial of the traverse, when he continued still the same; he then laboured under the same erroneous impressions; he said his family had conspired against him (which was one of his delusions), and spoke of his brother as being illegitimate. I then congratulated him on leaving off cutting his linen; he seemed annoyed at that, and said his linen was better washed there than it had been elsewhere. On inquiry I found he had not been allowed the use of scissors. When a species of insanity like that with which Sir Gregory was afflicted has lasted so many years the chances are very much against the patient's recovery. If this insanity continued from 1823 to 1839 I should ; say it was a most unpromising case to cure; and I have known no instance of a mau being competent to make a will after being so long the subject of insanity. Epilepsy usually impairs the powers of the mind. After an in sanity of that lapse of time, and under such cir cumstances, I should not expect a man to con verse rationally on the ordinary topics of conversa tion; nor, if he did talk rationally on those topics, should I say he was restored to a perfectly sound state of mine, unless I found he was labouring under no delu sion. 1 never heard Sir Gregory talk of his property. I have heard the will which has been read in court, and boon the state his mind was in I should have thought Sir Gregory was incapable of making such a disposition of his property, A fit of epilepsy in March, 1841, would not aggravate his disease, unless accompanied with paralyses. After an insanity of such a lapse of time I have never known a recovery when the insanity has been followed by fits of epilepsy, Occa sional drunkenness would aggrantte the disease of in sanity. I have heard Dr. Southey's evidence, and that has not altered my opinion. Cross-examined by Mr. CHAMBERS-1 have ceased to practice for ten years. By a juryman—l have not known a person have a lucid interval after an insanity of such duration as Sir Gregory's. D:. Conolly—l have been in practice about twenty eight years as a physician. lam physician of the Hanweil Lunatic Asylum, an appointment which I have held for ten years. For the last eleven years my pro fessional practice has been entirely confined to cases of insanity. Assuming an insanity of fifteen years' stand ing, and fits of epilepsy supervening, I should expect the malady would become increased. The mind almost always becomes weaker if the epilepsy continues. Epi lepsy is not at all uncomman after an insanity of four teen or fifieen years. I have heard the evidence in this case as to the character of the insanity. I should think the supervention of epilepsy after an insanity of so long a duration was a very unfavourable circumstance to reco• very. I have nover known insanity of such duration, followed lay epilepsy, terminate in a cure. Cross-examined by Mr. M. CHAMBERS—I have advo cated the taking off of personal coercion and restraint from lunatics with a view to promote their recovery. Be fore my time a very different mode of treatment was in vogue. By the mode of treatment adopted 'by me cases of insanity of 15, 16, and 17 years duration have been cured after a residence in Hanwell. I have known four or five such cases. That has happened in cases of raving madness and dangerous lunacy. In two or three of those cases I found the patients were at first in straight waistcoats, and subject to violent paroxysms. The severe systems of restraint on lunatics has been ge nerally abolished, but not universally, I am sorry to say. I believe the change of system has produced extraordi nary cures. Re-examined by Sir F. KELLY—I think all the cases of cure I have mentioned have been cases of raving mad ness, unaccompanied by epilepsy. With this witness the defendant's case closed. Mr. M. CHAMBERS was replying on the defendant's evidence when our report left. FRANCE. A letter from Lorient, of the 28th ult., states that a bottle, carefully sealed, was picked up on the pre vious day on the coast of Plouhinez, in the Morbihan. It contained a card on which was written, in pencil —"Steam-ship Atlantic. Name, Jonathan Welsh. Ten days out." The Semaphore de Marseilles of the 30th ult., publishes the following notice, issued by the Chamber of Commerce of that city : " The Chamber informs the merchants that, in virtue of a ciecisior, adopted on the 23d of November, by the Supreme Director of the Board of Palermo, vessels ar riving from France and Gibraltar shall be admitted to Ire pratique, provided they do not carry any Brazilian article on board. Vessels arriving from Malta shall be subjected to a quarantine of from seven to fourteen I days. 'lbis decision has been anno unce d t o th e Ch am b er of Commerce by the Consul of France in Sicily, in a letter dated 25th in,t." GERMAN Y. The following are the main facts of the Prussian budget estimates for 1851. The revenue of the State amounts to 94,694,959 thalers ; the ordinary ex penditure 93,483,711 thalers, showing a >urplus of 1,211,248 thalers. The extraordinary expenditure is estimated at 3,229,248 thalers, of which there is con sequently a sum of 2,118,000 thalers not covered. Toe excess of the ordinary expenditure above the ordinary revenue is 2,462,396 thalers more than in 1850. But in these estimates the cost of the recent measures has not been included, and as the military credit of last session is understood to be already nearly expended, the excess of expenditure over the income will be very much greater than that indicated by the above figures. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES By a private communication from Kiel it appears that the Staathalterschaft has resolved to prosecute the landed proprietors and clergy who signed the late declaration of peace, for treason against the state ; Count 1114ke was the author of the declaration. A military court of inquiry is also about to be ap pointed, to examine into certain facts connected with the storming of Frederickstadt ; it is believed that Colonel von der Tann, who commanded during the whole operations, frequently acted against the orders of the Commander-in-Chief, going beyond them in some cases, stud leaving them unperformed in others. Von der Tann has quitted the service, and, it is stated, without any formal permission. As he was recalled by his own Government, it should be stated that such permission was not required. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian of this day.) MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—The depression which per vaded our market last week has been greatly relieved to day by intelligence that Prussia and Austria were on the point of settling their main differences; and the effect of this news has been aided by favourable accounts of the Calcutta market, as well as by American advices of a character somewhat calculated to raise the price of cotton in Liverpool, as, in fact, they have done to the extent of id. per lb. upon Friday's quotations. Although our market has not recovered all that has been lost since the present dulness came on, the buyers have certainly found that, for yarns in general, they must pay more by about id. per lb. than the rates at which they might have operated last week. On Saturday, extremely low prices were, in some instances, submitted to, under the influence of apprehension, arising out of the apparent imminence of war; anything of this kind is now out of the question. The German merchants are of course waiting to be more fully satisfied that peace is secured before they venture to do more than execute small and necessary orders; but the India houses and the home consumers are purchasing to a moderate extent. As regards goods, we have to report a marked increase of if.quiry for various descriptions, with a fair amount of netual business in 40-inch shirtiegs, weighing from ' 61bs. to 81bs., and alsu in some kinds of domestics. The shirtiugs are principally in request for the east, but partly also for other markets. We learn from informa tion communicated by a mercantile house in this town that the expected ukase of the Russian Emperor, reducing the tariff of import duties, has actually appeared. By this ukase, which will come into operation on the lit of January, 1851, the duty on cotton twist im ported into Russia will, we understand, be reduced a silver rouble and a half per pood (about 4s. 10d. per 361b5.) The duties on cotton goods are also greatly lowered, the reduction on the different kinds averaging above 50 per cent. on the amount of duty now levied The duty on worsted !yarns is likewise materially re duced, and the duty on woollen cloths is somewhat di minished. ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—We have had a slacker mar ket to-day in flannels, notwithstanding there is a fair business going on in the warehouses, and the manufac turers have orders on hand yet unexecuted. The wool market remains steady, at prices firm for English wools, and a small advance is asked tor colonial wools. I MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—We are still unable to ' record any improved feature in the manufacturing trade I here. Up to the present time very little inducement has been held out to preducers for the comirg spring; not ] withstanding which, there are fair grounds for the as -1 sumption that suitable goods will be freely produced. I The thrown silk trade is much in the same state as re , ported in our last; at the same time, it is generally sup ' posed that extensive purchases will shortly be made in this ankle. The raw silk market remains extremely firm, at the latest quotations. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—Our market continues still, and there is not very much doing amongst the better class of woollen goods. There has been a rather better demand for fancy woollens of a low quality, for exportation, chiefly from the American market. The ) market is generally expected to be quiet until Christmas, at the commencement of the new season. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—AIthough there has been a better attendance in our Piece Hall to-day, there is no .'uiprovement in the demand for worsted goodi, which IS It. -ore restricted than it was. The yarn trade is still ja a , t ,,,!e of almost entire stagnation. There is very little doing wool; but the staplers are firm holders, at late Tales. LEEDS, TUESDAY:"-'We have no change to notice in the woollen cloth tra 4 ,1 since last week. There has been little doing at the mafket both on Saturday and to day, and business in the ware:."quses continues quiet. MORTALITY in the METROPOLIS.

The LOnD MAYOR said he had the gratification to state t'Dat he had received a letter from Mr. Balfour, of the fir•,mz. of Balfour, Lathing, and Co., the ship-brokers, containing information relative to the 65 French emi grants 'to California, who had some days ago complained against, Mr. Urbain, with whom they had entered into engage ments for their voyage to California, for not having performed his contract for conveying them to that des tinatic n. The following is a copy of the communication, which his Lo:rdship considered highly honourable to the firm : " Lord,—l feel certain that you will be pleased to learn t bat the matter of the Abyssinia' is arranged; but I conceive it to 139 due to your Lordship, who has only heard one side of the question, to my firm, as ono of some standing in the City, and to the public at largo, to explain the whole circumstances of the case, thereby en abling you to arrive at a fair conclusion on its merits. " On the 25th of September lust Mr. Urbuin brought a letter of introduction to our house from our corre spondent at Paris, and requested us to load for California the ship Abyssinia, which he had then purchased iron Mr. Alexander, the agent of the owners, for a sum of 3,1001., stating at the same time that he had engaged his passengers at Paris, and that he only required our as sistance in loading the ship. " Being most respectably introduced, we at once a-.- ceded to the request, and Mr. Alexander confirmed to us the next day the arrangement that bad been made. " A deposit having been duly paid, the ship was laid in the berth for goods, and an amount of freight between 8001. and 9001. engaged by us. " During the loading Mr. Urbain paid over to us vari ous sums, amounting in all to upwards of 1,000/., which we paid over, as requested by him, to the late owners of the ship. " About the 20th of October, Mr. Urbain, finding that it would cost a large sum of money to procure French papers, made overtures to us to allow the register to be put in our name, an idea which we at once repudiated, as we could not lend our names to such a transaction. At the same time, feeling for the position of the man, we made a liberal offer for the purchase of the vessel outright. This he rejected; informing us the day after that he had found a party who had acceded to his terms, and that the balance of the purchase-money would at onee be paid. This was never done, and the pas sengers becoming impatient, the man was thrown into prison. "Since that time proceedings have been taken against my firm, and although we derived no benefit from the transaction, nor are we i❑ any way legally responsible for the acts of Captain Urbain, yet deeply commise rating the condition of the poor emigrant::, we have purchased the ship, and she will proceed to sea on Sa turday, " A number of these unfortunate emigrants being entirely without means, and, almost without necessary clothing, notwithstanding the heavy sacrifices we have already made—and those only who know what it is to fit out an emigrant ship for a six months' voyage can appreciate the sacrifice—we have offered to contribute a further sum of fifty guineas, and we venture to appeal on their behalf to an English public —an appeal which is Buyer made in vain. "I can only add, that with one or two exceptions, the conduct of these men reflects upon them the greatest credit. " I have the honour to be, my Lord, " Your Lordship's most obedient servant, " BUCHANAN BALFOUR, of the firm of Balfour, Laming, and Co. " 157, Peneburch-street. "To the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor of London." Lieutenant Lean, R.N., Government agent for the port of London, said he had seen the vessel since Messrs. Balfour and Co. had fitted her out, and the provisions laid in and the accommodations made by the firm for the passage were most unexceptionable. The pour fo reigners had expressad in the most grateful manner their feelings towards the chief magistrate of London, for having so promptly and strenuously undertaken their cause, and hoped that his Lordship would, in the ensu ing year, when so many people from all nations would be assembled in the metropolis, be hailed by the appro bation of all who formed a just estimate of the value of charitable national intercourse. The LORD MAYOR, said be was sincerely gratified at the liberal course pursued by Messrs. Balfour, who had thus stood as it were between the poor foreigners and their ruin; but he could not at the same time conclude his expressions of satisfaction without returning thanks to Lieutenant Lean, for the benevolent pains that gentle man had taken in the business. His LORDSHIP then, at the request of the emigrants, issued an order for the discharge of Captain Urtain from prison, to which that unfortunate person had been consigned upon their representations. The Lord Mayor requested that the press would acknowledge the receipt of 51. for the poor box, from E. P.. for Call, Martin, and Co. BOW-STREET. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE OF TUESDAY.

WHITEHALL, Nov. 7.

THE BOOK TRADE.—Yesterday John Taylor, a town traveller, was brought before Mr. Jardine for final ex amination, charged with stealing a number of valuable books, the property of Mr. H. Bohn, bookseller and publisher of York-street, Covent-garden ; and John Millard, appeared on his recognizances to answer the charge of having them in his possession, supposed with a knowledge of their having been stolen. Constable. Matthews, F, proved that he apprehended Taylor at the prosecutor's house on the 25th of No vember, after which he went to his lodging, 4, ItavenA worth-street, Hackney-road, where he found, and brought away, 169 volumes ; and on the following day, having gone to the shop of Millard, the prosecutor asked him where were the two parcels he had received from Taylor the day before, upon which he said, "Is there an) thing wrong ? I always thought ho was a very respectable man. I did bay some second-hand books from him, which were very much soiled, and it took as all the day to clean them." The prosecutor then said, It is no use to deny them; you had better bring theta forw ,rd;" and Millard produced thirteen bound books, uncut, and all new, saying, "This is all; I gave two guineas for them;" but the prosecutor said, "I; is not all, I saw more this morning," referring to hooks which Millard said he had sent to Clapham. Being told that they had been seen at his shop in the morning, he produced three other " Books of Gems," saying, " that is all;" after which he said he had not paid for them, and had received the parcels which he had opened only the night before. Mr. JARDINE Said there was so much in the trade re specting " throwOoff" and soiled sheets, it was no won der that such circumstances should daily take place, and having ordered Taylor to be fully committed for trial, directed Millard to enter into his own recognizances in the sum of 1001 to appear at any future time and an swer any charge that might be preferred against him. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. WHITEHALL, Nov. 18. The Lord Chancellor has appointed David Crawford, of the city of Edinburgh, Gent., to be a Master Extra• ordinary in the High Court of Chancery in that part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland called Scotland. WHITEHALL, Nov. 19. The Lord Chancellor has appointed Edwin John Hayes, of Wolverhampton, in the county of Stafford, Gent., to be a Master Extraordinary in the High Court of Chancery. Captain Carleton wished to know whether he could have a search warrant under the circumstances: —A few mornings ago a man called a cab to draw up before the door of his house in Jermyn-street. The man opened the street door with a latch key, and from the hall, with the assistance of the cabman, he removed a heavy port manteau, and placed it in the cab, telling the driver to proceed to the Waterloo -road station. The cabman, be lieving the man belonged to the house, and that he was going by railway, had no suspicion of anything wrong, and took the fare to the Waterloo-road. Here the man alighted, and the trunk being placed on the steps of the door of a house, the cabman was paid his fare, and drove off. The robbery was soon afterwards discovered, and as the trunk contained valuable property, information was given to the police, who soon traced out the cabman and obtained readily from him the above particulars. Applicant believed that the portmanteau would be found in the house at the door of which it was placed, and I e wished for a search-warrant to determine that point. Inspector Whall said he doubted whether the port manteau had been taken into the house. Mr. BINGHAM would not grant the search-warrant, but referred the applicant to the Southwark Police-court. - WHITEHALL, Nov. 27.

A respectably-erissed man, named George Hopwood, described as a backgammon-board manufactur,r in Anne's-place, Hackney-road, and his wif e , Edi t h Hop wood, a comely and delicatr-looking young woman, were placed at the bar before Mr. Arnold, charged with cut ting and wounding a young woman named June Paruell, with intent to murder her. _ _ Mr. Heritage, on behalf of the accused, said that he was instructed to give a total denial to the charge, which had originated in feelings of mortification and resentment on the part of the woman Parnell, in conse quence of her having been discarded by the male pri sumer in favour of his lawful wife; and he should be able, on a future occasion, to produce convincing evidence to prove that neither of the accused persons had left home at all upon the evening in question. Mr. ARNOLD ordered both the prisoners to be re manded for a week. Elisha Denton elderly man, who stood charged with a criminal assault upon a young girl named Emma Bennett, the daughter of an actor, was placed at the bar for final examination. The only additional witness now examined was Mr. Thomas Meares, the divisional surgeon of police, whose evidence was of a nature which cannot be particularly detailed, but went to prove that the girl had been sub jected to such violence as to lead to the conclusion that the capital offence had been committed. In answer to a question from the Magistrate, the officer who apprehended the prisoner stated that he had used every exertion to trace out the young woman's fa ther, by whom she ulltged she had been deserted, but all his efforts bad been unsuccessful; and the wife of the landlord of the house where the offence had been perpe trated was too near her confinement to admit of her at tendance.

PFYI'FER was elected President of the Federal Tribunal, and Dr. KERN, the present President, was elected Vice- President. ITALY. In the sitting of the 28th ult. of the Chamber of Deputies of Turin, Signor BROFFERIO, the leader of the Extreme Left, who, to the astonishment of all, had been appointed by the President of the Chamber, Signor PIRELLI, to frame a new address, instead of that presented by Chevalier BONCOMPAGNI, read the document drawn up by him, which was as follows : " Sire,—Your sublime words have been received by the nation as an announcement of domestic felicity, and its echo will be heard from afar, where there are suffer ings and hopes. Permit us, oh Sire, to declare to you that the wishes of the country have seldom been more nobly interpreted. By upholding our institutions you have become great; by improving them you will render yourself immortal. Tne Elective Chamber will be proud to assist you in that glorious task which you have boldly undertaken, and the example of an Italian people that resists and perseveres, in the midst of struggles and ruin, will net be unproductive of good upon earth. "Liberty, whether conquered or defended, is always the fruit of magnanimous sacrifices; the nation will bear them with dignity. We joyfully await the presentation of those improvements we are anxious for. Progress is not only a rule of the statute, it is a rule of humanity.j "Respect to religious traditions and the sentiment of COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Dec. 3. national rights are the basis of European civilization.

Macauley," 19 and 7 Q. 8., 73, which had been alluded to in the course of the case, had his entire concurrence, and he should leave the case to them in the same way as he had summed up in the case of " Reynell v. Lewis," which had received the approba tion of the Court of Queen's Bench. The jury would, therefore, have to consider whether the defendant really ever became a provisional committeeman; secondly, whether, if he were, he ever authorised any member of the committee to hold him out to the world as respon sible for the expenses on behalf of the company; and, lastly, whether the work for which the sum of 43/. was ❑ow claimed, was done on his credit, and on the faith of his being a provisional committeeman. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant. Mr. CORRIE applied to his Lordship to certify for a special jury. The LORD CHIEF BARON refused to certify. The ex penses of actions of this kind must be considered as a great evil, and, as in the present case, the defendant had applied for that description of jury which he considered the most likely to give him the verdict he required, he must pay for it.

THE Hor DUTY —Wednesday week was the day appokted for the payment of the last moiety of the hop duty or 1843 and ltq9. 'the inland revenue officers had their sitting at the Cinque Ports' Arms Hotel, Rye, where, about noon, a considerable number of hop-growers had as sembled, and it was evident that they keenly felt the harsh measure of the Government in requiring the moiety of the 1848 duty, knowing, as the Government must do, that a con siderable portion of the produce of that year was worth but little more than the duty, to say nothing of the expense of cultivating, picking, drying, warehousing, &c., of that crop. With four exceptions, we understand that the duty of 1848 was not paid, notwithstanding the intimation of legal pro ceedings on the part of the officers of the Crown ; but we take this orport unity of stating that this result arose en tirely from the want of means to meet the demand, and unless a sacrifice had been made in the capital of the farmer to a frightful extent in this neighbourhood. Should the Government persist in enforcing the duty of 1848, the result to all classes in this district will he distressing, and in some instances ruinous. To the poor and labouring population one of the worst winters for years will be experienced, and the result must Le the disorganisation of society and an in crease of the poor-rates. With the Government must rest the consequences of enforcing from an already impoverished district'npwards of 20,000/. where nothing has, in fact, been produced for it as an equivalent, and where, during the last two years, capital and labour have been unprofitably absorbed by uaremunerating produce and oppressive taxation. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Dec. 3. (Sittings in Branco.) POWELL V. LIOYLAND. This was an action ',in trover for certain bills of ex change. A verdict was found for the plaintiff. A rule had been obtained culling on the plaintiff to show cause why there should not be a new trial, on the ground that there was no evidence to go to the jury of a con version. Mr. WELSBT and Mr. ATHERTON now showed cause. Mr. PULLING, in support of the rule, contended that the plaintiff voluntarily parted with the bills, and that the fact of his having been induced to do so by a mis taken representation was immaterial. The COURT took time to consider. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, before the CHIEF BARON and a Special Jury.) BARKER AND ANOTHER V. BROOKS. This was an action brought by the plaintiff:, as ad vertizing agents, against the defendant as one of the provisional committeemen of a railway called the Nor folk Coast line. Mr. Humfrey, Q.C., and Mr. Bovill were for the plain tiff; and Mr. Crowder, Q.C., and Mr. Corrie for the de fendant. CERTIFICATES GRANTED. A.
